How the stars cope with relationship drama…
If there are 50 ways to leave your lover, there must be 5,000 ways to react to gut-punching heartbreak.
Actress emma thompson has admitted channelling her anguish at her ex husband Kenneth Branagh’s infidelity into her role in the film Love Actually.
the oscar winner said, ‘that scene where my character is standing by the bed crying is so well-known because it’s something everyone’s been through.
‘i had my heart badly broken. i knew what it was like to find the necklace that wasn’t meant for me.’
Kylie minogue has admitted to an even more dramatic reaction to her 2016 break-up with fiancé Joshua sasse. ‘my physical system was compromised, i think it’s called a nervous breakdown,’ she revealed recently. the singer fled to a beach in thailand to recover. she said, ‘i can take a nose dive pretty fast, but i won’t stay there long.’ the rest of us tend to dive headfirst into a tub of häagen dazs, but my new favourite coping strategy comes from paddy mcguinness’ wife christine. After seeing pictures of her husband draped round Nicole Appleton, did christine shame him on twitter or shred his clothes? No, she signed up to appear on reality show Real Housewives Of Cheshire – and that’s something he may never recover from.
