It seems her toyboy fiance is making Denise Welch feel younger than her years.
The Loose Women star, 54, was seen leaving an IVF clinic with her 39-year-old fiance Lincoln Townley in Manchester last week.
 
And Denise, who already has two children with ex-husband Tim Healy, was photographed in a Sunday newspaper walked arm-in-arm with her younger man after their appointment.
 
A friend of the actress told the Sunday Mirror: 'Denise has told me the only problem with the age difference between her and Lincoln is that they can’t have kids.
 
'I know Denise would love to be able to give Lincoln a baby and the challenge of coping with a newborn at her age wouldn’t faze her at all. But there are all sorts of ways they might be able to do that to make their happiness complete – through IVF, adoption or even surrogacy. 
 
'I know she has a cousin who works in an IVF clinic in Liverpool and it is something she has thought about. Den and Lincoln have a very special bond and are both great parents. So it would be lovely if it happened for them.'
 
The former Coronation Street star and fiance Lincoln got engaged earlier this year and Denise is said to want to have children with her beau despite being classed as an older mother by some.
 
If she goes ahead with IVF, she may pay up to £3,000 per cycle of the treatment which helps women conceive successfully.
 
In May, she joked about having a baby together: 'We have spoken slightly tongue-in-cheek about IVF, having kids together, but I’m 97, and had my last baby when I was 83, so, realistically, I don’t think this is going to happen.'
 
And Denise may be able to call on the help of her ex-husband Tim if she welcomes a new addition to her family - she recently revealed the pair were still good friends and that she will be spending Christmas with her former flame.
 
Last month, she said: 'We will only have one day this year for Christmas because of the Panto and everything and both partners will be there.
'Tim and I are still best of friends and we are all having dinner together tomorrow night.'

The story of a 13-year-old Jewish girl who died in a Nazi concentration camp after spending two years in hiding in the attic of her father’s office, Anne Frank, will be adapted for the silver screen, exposing new archive materials.
 
The new film will be based not only on the girl's famous diary, but will also unveil extensive historical documentation provided by her family. The drama aims to tell Frank's whole story, both before and after her time in hiding, the Hollywood Reporter informed.
 
German screenwriter Fred Breinersdorfer, who penned the Oscar-nominated period drama "Sophie Scholl: The Final Days", has worked on the Anne Frank script. He reportedly used new archive material on the arrest and trial of the leader of the non-violent anti-Nazi resistance movement "The White Rose" to add detail to the historic biopic.
 
The author of one of the most famous diaries in history, Frank was one of over a million Jewish children who lost their lives in the Holocaust. Her unique diary, an outstanding collection of secret thoughts and feelings, her love crush with a boy, Peter van Daan, among them, has been translated into 55 languages. 
 
The teenage girl proved herself a fully-fledged thinker and never lost hope of being free one day. Anne and her sister Margot died of typhus in 1945, shortly before the Bergen-Belsen camp was liberated by the British troops. 
 
The story of Anne Frank has been previously adapted for big screen a number of times; one of them, The Diary of Anne Frank, won three Oscars in 1959. 
A director and cast for the new adaptation have not been set yet. Shooting is planned for next year.

Jared Leto lifts his shirt to reveal his shockingly skinny frame - after starving himself for a month to play the role of a HIV-positive transsexual woman in the Dallas Buyers Club.
 
The actor and 30 Seconds To Mars star has shed a drastic amount of weight for the role - much like his co-star Matthew McConaughey.
 
However, while McConaughey has been on a slim-down mission for six months, Leto has transformed his physique in little over a month after only recently getting involved in the project.
 
Jared, 40, who has waxed his body hair and eyebrows for the movie, is seen here in a snap taken by famed photographer Terry Richardson.
 
It shows him lifting his T-shirt to expose his hollowed torso and jutting rib cage.
 
This week Jared told Vulture about how he has been suffering for his art, revealing he has essentially starved himself for the past month.
 
He said of the weight loss: 'Your body goes through weird stages.
'Sometimes it's hard to hold on to water. But for me, it's not about the most weight I can lose, it's more to represent the character.'
 
He went on: 'Historically, people have done it for pursuit of self, to achieve a meditative state, so I'm hoping for that. It's not necessarily a bad thing.'
 
Explaining his involvement in the Jean-Marc Vallée-directed movie - which marks his return to the big screen after 2009's Mr Nobody - he said: 'I'm playing a transsexual woman. I didn't get involved in the project until a few weeks ago, three and a half weeks ago.'
 
Leto has gained and lossed weight before for film roles, notably piling on the pounds for Chapter 27 back in 2006.
 
The actor did not give details of how much he has lost for the Dallas Buyers Club, but his co-star McConaughey recently told how he has dropped almost 40lbs to play Ron Woodroof, a real-life electrician who smuggled illegal medication after contracting the disease.
 

Baby daddy drama for Halle Berry

Halle Berry's baby daddy Gabriel Aubry looked worse for wear in Los Angeles this weekend, sporting a nasty black eye only days after his Thanksgiving Day brawl with Berry’s current beau, French actor Olivier Martinez.
 
Aubry -- a 36-year-old Canadian model who briefly once dated Kim Kardashian -- and Martinez got into the dust-up at Berry’s Los Angeles home Thursday morning after he dropped off Nahla, his 4-year-old daughter with the Oscar winner.
 
Martinez, 46, was snapped Saturday with bandages around his hand from the incident, after which Aubry was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor battery, posted a $20,000 bond and given a December 13 court date.
 
The high-profile incident has caught the attention of the L.A. County Department of Child Protective Services, who will re-open their abuse investigation into the toxic co-parenting situation between the French-Canadian hunk and the actress.
 
"Detectives from the LAPD formally contacted CPS after Gabe's arrest, because Nahla was present when the fight occurred," a source close to the situation tells Radar exclusively. "Nahla wasn't actually involved in the melee, and by all accounts, Halle whisked her out of the driveway as soon as the fight between Olivier and Gabe started. However, DCFS was contacted because there has been a history of allegations of physical abuse.
 
"Social workers will be interviewing Halle, Gabriel and Olivier about what happened on Thanksgiving. DCFS must ensure that Nahla's environment is safe."
 
The source added that Aubry "is extremely concerned about his arrest and the fallout this could have on" his daughter.
"She is his entire world and is hopeful that once the truth comes out, he won't be formally charged with any crime."
 
Security footage
 
Gabriel Aubry repeatedly asked cops to secure security footage before it was destroyed, following the brutal fight he was involved in with Halle Berry's fiance Olivier Martinez on Thanksgiving, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
 
Radaronline was first to report on the existence of the footage, which was captured on Berry's security cameras at her property, and Aubry references it in his application for a restraining order against Martinez, which was granted on Monday.
 
"I told the officers that [Martinez] was the one who attacked me, and repeatedly told them to get the security tapes from Ms. Berry's security cameras before she and Mr. Martinez deleted them," the Canadian born model writes in his sworn declaration.
 
Also included in the TRO application are shocking photos showing Aubry's battered and bloody face, and his allegation that despite him being the one arrested, it was actually Martinez who started the altercation.
 
According to the sworn declaration within his TRO application, Gabriel took his daughter Nahla to her school play the day before Thanksgiving. Halle and Olivier also went and Aubry alleges that Olivier walked up to him and whispered in French in his ear:
 
"I wish I could beat the s**t out of you right now. You're lucky we're in a school right now. We're going to take Nahla right now and you're not going to follow us."
 
The following day, Gabriel arrived at Halle’s home with Nahla around 10 a.m. Gabriel states in his declaration that contrary to their usual arrangement, Olivier was the first to come out of the door – stating that normally he is met by a nanny. Gabriel then claims in his TRO application that Olivier said: "We need to talk."
 
 
Gabriel goes on to allege that he turned his back on Olivier and walked towards his car. Gabriel then claims in the court documents that Olivier jumped off the stairs and knocked him to the ground before brutally beating him. 
 
Gabriel also claims in his sworn declaration that Olivier screamed that he has cost them $3 million in their custody battle.
 
Gabriel then claims in the court documents that Olivier took his head in his hands and slammed it on the concrete driveway and raged that the family was going to move to Paris and Gabriel should follow too or Olivier would kill him.
 
Then, Gabriel claims in his sworn declaration, Olivier said, "We called the cops," and when they arrive, "you’re going to tell them that you’re the one who attacked me, or I’m going to kill you."

First Look Photos: Megan Fox plays a sci-fi starlet on ‘The Wedding Band’

Everyone knows Megan Fox as an action franchise heroine, but what few may remember is that one of her earliest projects was in a television comedy. Her guest appearance on husband Brian Austin Green’s new TBS show The Wedding Band may just bring her career full circle in that very meta way, then.

In the episode entitled “I Love College,” Fox takes a star turn as a sci-fi heroine who meets Green’s Tommy after he performs at a convention. The two naturally have intense chemistry, and she ends up spilling her series ending secrets to him in bed. Tommy isn’t a sci-fi fan, though, so her words mean nothing to him, and he thinks nothing of it to repeat the story to his friends and band mates. Unfortunately for her, one of them actually cares quite deeply about the fan favorite show on which she stars and feels just as strongly

Things get further complicated when the rumor finds its way online, and Tommy and the band later play some sci-fi fans and bloggers’ college party as a way to get back in their good graces, but what is perhaps most shocking about the episode is that Fox’ character still wants to be with Tommy, even after he leaked her secrets, putting her own reputation on the line.

The best part of the episode, though? Just how natural Fox is in the role. So many of her big blockbusters focus on making her larger than life and inaccessible, but she started her career as the girl-next-door, and playing opposite someone with whom she is so comfortable as Green, that sweet simplicity re-emerges.
