We can always be friends
WHEN W you become famous, you yo soon learn who your true friends fri are. That counts for politicians pol as well as pop stars. But Bu when celeb mates fall out, it’s all the more mo awkward, and harder to fix.
Like David Cameron and Michael Gove, big b political pals who fell out over work and an Brexit and dragged their wives into the mess.
Their Thei long- term friendship imploded implod over the EU referendum, endum with Cameron also slating sla his Brexiteer exchum ch Michael in his new autobiography.
Dutifully supp porting their hubbies resulted in Sam Cam and BFF Sarah Vine severing ties. These are families who h have enjoyed posh skiing trips t together – Sarah is even godmother to the Camerons’ youngest daughter.
Their relationship soured after the then PM rem removed his pal from his role as Education Secretary. Sarah took to Twitter to stand by her man. Dave later fired back calling Michael a “lunatic” for his Brexity ways.
But this week, Sarah hinted at peace talks. Samantha seems open to it, responding on This Morning “time is a great healer and you never know what might happen in the future”.
Time does heal. But you shouldn’t let too much slip away before you swallow your pride.
I know from experience, falling out with someone you care about, trust and have shared so much with shakes you to the core.
In 2010, I had a major scrap with two of my sisters, Anne and Denise. We were all stubborn. It took for our sister, Bernie, to die for the rift to finally be repaired. You need to move forward and focus on the good. It’s the same stance I take with my two ex-husbands.
Because life is short. And true friends are worth hanging on to.
