Her grandfather Rupert Murdoch is no stranger to divorce, with four ex-wives and one abruptly abandoned engagement to his name.

Now friends fear Charlotte Freud’s marriage to rapper Luke Storey might also be on the rocks, just a year after their stylish Cotswolds wedding.

The pair have not been pictured together for a while – but more telling for a modern couple are their actions on social media. Charlotte, 23, who is the daughter of Elisabeth Murdoch and PR guru Matthew Freud, is no longer following rapper Luke on Instagram – she has also deleted almost all of her photographs, and he features in none that are left.

Luke still follows her online but was notably absent from pictures taken at his father-in-law’s 60th birthday party last weekend. Meanwhile Charlotte posted a photograph of herself with her dad, actor Woody Harrelson and magician David Blaine at the star-studded bash.

Harrelson was at the couple’s wedding last July and helped Charlotte, who also goes by the name of Tiarlie, with her hair. Also at the ceremony, where Charlotte wore a gothic dress, were presenter Claudia Winkleman and the bride’s grandfather Rupert, who attended on the day after his fourth wife, model Jerry Hall, filed divorce papers in Los Angeles.

The 92-year-old billionaire media tycoon subsequently started dating former radio host Ann Lesley Smith, but called off their engagement after just two weeks. Now it appears Charlotte may have fallen victim to what’s been dubbed the ‘curse of the Murdochs’ too – although both she and Luke declined to comment last night.

Charlotte, a composer, is currently splitting her time between the UK and Los Angeles, where she is studying. Last week, she announced she had teamed up with author Charlie Mackesy to create a musical version of his hit book The Boy, The Mole, The Fox And The Horse that can be performed for primary school children. Announcing the news on social media, Charlotte said: ‘My heart is bursting. I’m so grateful to have been trusted with this story.’

She added that she gave the kids she had been working with temporary tattoos ‘so we could match’.

 

She was one half of fashion duo Trinny and Susannah, but now Susannah Constantine is embarking on a less glamorous project – spending time in a Portuguese sleep clinic to find a solution to her snoring.

The 61-year-old, right, who has tried everything from mouth-taping to separate bedrooms, says: ‘What I’m discovering is that there is no one cure for the sleep-snoring problem. The good news is there are multiple things we can do to help our sleep pattern.’

Fingers crossed that she finds something that works – not least for the sake of her husband, Danish entrepreneur and businessman Sten Bertelsen.

 

After being cleared of allegations that he assaulted his ex-girlfriend and her sister, Ryan Giggs is about to try to revive his career by making some public appearances. 

The former Manchester United footballer and Wales manager, 49, is advertising a series of live ‘evening with’ events next year and is charging fans up to £200 each to meet him at venues in Chester, Belfast and Northampton. 

In July, the star was said to be ‘deeply relieved’ when charges of assaulting his ex, Kate Greville, and her sister Emma were dropped after Kate declined to co-operate with a retrial.
