LONELIEST LADY

MARRIED life is not everything actress Emilia Fox (left) dreamed of.

‘ I’ve barely seen my husband since our honeymoon,’ sighs

Emilia, 31, who wed

screen Lothario

Richard Harris’s actor

son Jared, 44, four

months ago after a

whirlwind romance.

‘ Jared’s in Mexico

filming Lady In The

Water and I’ve been

stuck here doing

Silent Witness for

TV. I can’t wait until

he comes home for

Christmas. In the

meantime I feel like

I’ve regressed to being 16 again, as my best friend comes to sleep over when I get lonely.’ Hurry home, Jared!

FRISKIEST LOVEBIRDS

JCB construction heir Joe Bamford, 26, has succumbed to the charms of a bewitching older woman — blonde knitwear designer Alex Gore Browne, 30.

‘ We’ve been together for four months,’ says Alex, whose fashionable clothes are worn by Kate Moss, Jade Jagger and Madonna. The couple met in ( where else?) Ibiza.

‘I met her there in the summer when I went to stay at my house with her friend Lady Kinvara Balfour,’ says a clearly smitten Joe. ‘ She’s absolutely wonderful.’

HAPPIEST COUPLE

OLD Etonian actor Oliver Milburn, 32, was patting the expanding tummy of his pregnant wife, Channel 4 news reporter Katie Razzall.

‘ The baby’s due in April,’ gushes Katie, 29, daughter of Lib Dem peer Lord Razzall of Mortlake.

‘It was a total surprise, but we’re both thrilled. I’m already planning to turn Olly’s study into a nursery.’

Musing, she adds: ‘The place where his desk is would be a perfect nappy- changing area.’
