We're surprised they let them in the palace! Bryan Ferry joined by his colourful sons as he accepts his CBE

By Daily Mail Reporter


Ready to meet the Queen: Dapper Bryan Ferry is joined by his four sons (L-R) Merlin, Isaac, Otis and Tara at Buckingham Palace


Bryan Ferry was watched proudly by his four sons as he was honoured with a CBE a Buckingham Palace today.

But some could be forgiven for wondering if the Queen knew about some of the Ferry boys' past bad behaviour as they joined their father during his investiture ceremony.

While the four brothers looked undoubtedly smart in their suits, three of are no stranger to controversy, with one receiving a conviction for drink driving.


Of course, eldest son, gamekeeper Otis, 29, is well-known due to his several arrests for pro-hunting protests and was convicted of drink-driving in 2005.

Younger brother Isaac, 27, has also been in the limelight after being picked to model for Burberry.

But he was also suspended from prestigious private school Eton after sending an abusive email to anti-hunting campaigner Simon Wild in 2002.

In May this year, Merlin, 20, was handed a 12-month binding over order after he was arrested for carrying a Gurkha combat knife.

Honoured: Ferry talks to Queen Elizabeth as he is presented with his CBE medal


Meanwhile, remaining son Tara, 21, is following in the footsteps of his father by becoming a drummer.

Missing out on the invitation to the palace is Ferry's latest love Amanda Sheppard, who is 36 years his junior.

Looking dapper in a morning suit, the 66-year-old posed alongside his four boys - whose mother is his ex-wife Lucy Helmore - as he arrived at Her Majesty's London residence.

Speaking following his investiture ceremony, he said: 'Getting something like this is actually very humbling and I was very pleased to be recognised for, I guess, a long career and doing something I love doing.

Long career: The CBE recognises Ferry's career, which has spanned five decades


'To get an official award like this is incredibly nice and quite a surprise - a very good surprise.

'I always knew I was going to be an artist - as soon as I left school and went to university and spent four years studying painting, I thought that's what I want to do.

'I got to a point where I thought I'd put a band together and make a record and if it doesn't work I'll go back to painting, but the band worked incredibly well.'

Ferry was unveiled as a recipient of a Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in the Queen's Birthday Honours list in June.

Flesh + Blood: The four Ferry sons wore matching blue suits


It recognises the veteran singer's nearly 40 year career in the music industry.

Ferry is currently touring with his new album Olympia and enjoyed a Roxy Music reunion earlier this year.

Earlier this year, Ferry was forced to cancel several concerts after suffering a heart scare.

In an interview in July, he admitted he has been suffering from an irregular heart rhythm – a potentially dangerous condition known as arrhythmia.

'I've had the best laugh of my life': Crissy Rock is still smiling as she is the next camp mate to leave the I'm A Celeb jungle

By Kirsty Mccormack


I'm out: Crissy Rock was the next female to leave the Australian jungle


She might have been on cloud nine with Peter Andre yesterday but today Crissy came crashing back down to earth as she was the next celebrity to leave the jungle.

The Benidorm actress was delighted as Ant and Dec read her name out to the group and she immediately gave Willie Carson a big hug.

'I'm going home Willie, I'm gonna have my bacon and eggs for ya,' she told him.

Hurrah! The Benidorm star didn't look too bothered about not being in the final of the ITV show


As the group asked her what she needed as she prepared to leave she answered: 'Nothing, I'm going home.'

The blonde star managed 19 days in the jungle and was well-known as the camp jester who was always laughing.

'Freedom!' she shouted as she made her way across the bridge.

'Are you pleased to be out?' Dec asked her.

'No, I'm sad but I already won by getting here, I've had a lovely time. The pinnacle was Peter Andre.'

Reunited: Crissy was met by her friend she posed for photographs on the bridge


She also told them that she was shocked that she lasted so long: 'I was in a coma for the first week, but I was on my holidays.'

She then went on to say that she didn't regret not jumping out of the plane at the beginning of the show but said she's had the 'best laugh' of her life.

The conversation then moved on to the camp traitors and Crissy told the hosts: 'We didn't know it was for the good of the group and we had no idea it was Antony and Dougie.'

'Peter was the pinnacle': The blonde actress was delighted to have spent time in camp with Mr Andre


But after talk of the negative vibes in the camp, Crissy expressed her delight at having spent time with Peter Andre.

'If I'd gone out yesterday and missed that I would have been gutted,' she said.
'He's gonna give me special VIP tickets for me and my friend.'

The last question that Ant and Dec asked Crissy was who she would like to see take home the jungle crown.

'At the minute Willie,' she said. 'Because he's been an absolute sport.

Pleased to be there: Crissy said she was gutted to have left but was surprised she lasted as long as she did


'From day one he's wanted to go home but he's still there so either him or Fatima.'
Perhaps it was her unexpected rant with her 'partner in crime' Willie that lost her votes from the public tonight.

The Scottish star slammed Antony and Dougie after he discovered that they were the real camp traitors.

The star called the pair 'f***ing thieves,' and when they tried to explain themselves, he continued with his opinion.


Still annoyed: Willie and Crissy were angry when they discovered that Antony and Dougie were the real camp traitors


'You don’t steal, you don’t lie,' he said. 'I’m seething, annoyed, these thieves get away with it and we do the time. I’m so f***ing angry.

Willie was told he had to spend the night with Crissy in a dark dungeon after they incorrectly guessed who the traitors were.

'If it was just me, I’d have given you a thump and laughed about it,' he said to Antony and Dougie.

'It's turned nasty, condoning stealing, you can’t do this, condoning thieving, and how can this look good?'

Dougie then tried to apologise while Antony attempted to explain that they thought they were winning packages for everyone and did not know the pair would be imprisoned for it.

In trouble: Antony and Dougie were the target of Willie's ongoing rant


'Willie when you get out of here you will see exactly what happened and you will see that you filled in your own blanks and you are wrong,' said Antony.

'As far as we were aware we were doing it for everyone, we don’t get anything out of it. It’s just a game show!'

But Willie still couldn't let it go and later said: 'He’s lucky I didn’t pull him out of the bed last night, I was very close to it. What you are doing to all the kids in England is condoning stealing.

'You don’t steal, you don’t lie, even in a game show. It is selfishness and I can’t condone it.'

We weren't to know: The pair tried to explain to Willie that they didn't know that he would be punished for what they did


But his anger soon turned into a different kind of emotion as Crissy brought in the packages that Antony and Dougie had won for her and Willie from their loved ones.

Crissy was presented with a photo of her friend, some chocolate and her yin and yan balls, while Willie opened a picture of his wife Elaine.

'The emotion gets to you,' he said as he wiped away a tear.

But this seemed to annoy Antony as he felt Willie didn't appreciate what they had done in order for him to get his precious photograph.

No apology: Willie didn't apologise to the pair even though he also received a present from his loved one


'Morals come and go don’t they? He’s not even had the good grace to apologise.

'The horrible thing is we never did anything but they did say those things and they did react that way,' he added.

'You can’t take that away, it’s a horrible feeling. You can forgive and forget but can’t take it away.'

But Mark Wright defended Crissy and Willie, saying: 'You can understand why they thought like that.'

'I will never understand that because I would not react like that,' Antony snapped back.

'Not with people I have lived with for two weeks.'

However, Crissy didn't seem to hold a grudge against the pair and was kind enough to share her chocolate with the group.

'It’s your birthday please take a bar,' she told Dougie as she sang Happy Birthday to him.

'No hard feelings, we’ve got over it now,' she added as she also handed some to Antony and Mark.

Sharing her stash: Crissy decided to give the group some of her bars of chocolate after she received it from her loved ones


'It wasn’t what you did, it was the way we were treated, it’s not your fault,' she said and then hugged Dougie.

'All I’ll say is you make good spies.'

But the negative vibes in the camp hadn't completely disappeared as Antony continued his feud with Fatima.

Speaking to Dougie - following his attempt at the Bushtucker trial - the Coronation Street star was still talking about Willie's reaction that morning but soon managed to bring Fatima's mood into the equation.

'You get someone like Fatima who in this environment isn’t how she is normally but in here she is like empowering whilst also undercutting, it makes me furious,' he said.

'When you had trial doubts earlier she was straight in there under cutting you, she more than anyone was putting doubt in your mind.

'Undercutting': Antony was annoyed with Fatima as he felt she tried to persuade birthday boy Dougie not to do the trial


'All the time trying to tell you how to empower yourself, I can see it, he added. 'You did it so well done you but you nearly didn’t.'

However, Dougie wasn't bothered as he was celebrating turning 24 and received a surprise in the form of celebrity guest - Peter Andre.

The former I'm A Celebrity contestant spent the day in camp and certainly made an impact on them all.

The former pop star was on hand to give Mark some love advice after he met his ex-wife, Katie Price, during his time in the jungle.

As Mark was sat on his own contemplating his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, Lauren Goodger, Peter decided to join him.

Heart-to-heart: Peter was seen giving Mark some advice about his love life


'I don’t know how you feel, or felt, but I’m finding things hard with my ex, but I know it’s not right, Mark said to him.

'I loved Katie more than I loved anyone in my life, we had kids, a marriage and you never loose that,' he replied.

'Why can’t you find a different way?' he added referring to Lauren.

'We tried so many times,' said Mark and then asked Peter how he got over Katie.

'However I look at the situation, it’s not what I wanted,' he answered.

He then pointed to his heart and said: 'I think this has moved on, but this hasn’t,' and pointed to his head.

Private: The pair later moved away from the camp in order to have some privacy


'My heart has moved on, I’m ready to meet someone and all that but seriously, it’s your mind, it’s always there.'

'But I think my head has moved on as I want to be with someone else but my heart won’t move on,' said Mark.

'Then I’m sorry to say it, you’re gonna hate me but you’re not ready to.
'If she means something to you then there has got to be another way,' added Peter.

The pair then moved down to the creek to have some privacy and their conversation continued.

'For years, it’s gone on and on and I know it’s not right,' Mark then told him.
'Ten years is a long time,' remarked Peter.

Make it work: Peter told Mark that if he still has feelings in his heart then he should give it another go with Lauren Goodger


'If this experience has made you clearer in the mind, then great, but it sounds to me that there’s still something there, I can’t imagine her not doing anything to make it right.'

'I know she would,' finished Mark.

Later that day, Peter had a different kind of conversation with another male camp mate as he enjoyed some time in a hot tub.

The camp had been split into two teams for a general knowledge quiz, with Antony, Willie and Dougie playing against Mark, Fatima and Crissy.

The three men were triumphant and their prize was a hot tub party with Peter.

'My hot tub parties usually rock but I’m not in control of this one so anything could happen,' Peter said.

In hot water: Dougie, Antony and Willie won a hot tub session with Peter after they won the quiz in camp


As the group enjoyed some champagne and sang happy birthday to Dougie, Willie accidentally touched Peter’s penis with his toe.

'I didn’t expect at the end of the day to be sharing a hot tub with three guys and Willie has just touched my willy, he gave me a willy wonka,' the star commented.

Willie almost disappeared under the water until he found a high seat.
'I could swim around here if you lot get out!' he said.


Touchy feely: Willie accidentally touched Peter's penis with his toe while in the water


The group returned to the camp feeling a little bit tipsy, and then the group had to wave Peter goodbye.

Before leaving he said: 'Being here this evening changed everything - it brought back every beautiful memory, the sounds, the smell - it just reminded me how I felt in every way.'

'Hungry, in love, hungry, in love and hungry.

'These guys were given an extra meal tonight for me but I’m not going to eat it as it’s a bit of extra food for them will mean so much.'

Taking the Gaga look too far! Misha B steals the show for all the wrong reasons in an ill-advised jumpsuit at X Factor secret gig

By Sarah Bull


Taking the Gaga look a bit too far! Misha B misses the fashion mark at the X Factor secret gig in London


She was hailed as a dream to work with by the X Factor styling team thanks to the fact she was willing to experiment when it comes to fashion.

But tonight Misha B took her eccentric way of dressing a bit too far as she arrived for the X Factor secret gig wearing a bizarre black jumpsuit which did little to flatter her womanly curves.

The odd outfit featured a black corseted top, with attached hotpants and cut-out panels down the legs, filled in with black paisley-print material.

Final countdown: Misha joined fellow semi-finalists Marcus Collins, Amelia Lily and Little Mix at the gig


Misha teamed the all-in-one with a black suede jacket, which featured pointed shoulders, and a pair of platform trainers that would have looked out of place on one of the Spice Girls during their heyday.

The overall look proved unflattering on 19-year-old singer Misha, who will be fighting to keep her place on The X Factor on the show's semi-finals this weekend.

Mischa's direct competitor, Amelia Lily, also went all out for the performance at the Talk Talk Soho store in London, teaming a pair of animal-print leggings with glittery boots and a sheer black blouse.


Glamour girls: Little Mix went all out for the performance, held at the Talk Talk Soho store

Hoping for the best: Amelia Lily and Marcus will be hoping to make the final cut during the live shows this weekend


The duo - the last remaining two in Kelly's girls category - were joined by fellow semi-finalists Marcus Collins and Little Mix for the top-secret gig.

While Marcus went for a casual look in a black top and jeans, Little Mix looked glamorous as they posed for photographers at the event.

Jade decided to recycle her specially-created House of Holland for Pretty Polly personalised tights, which feature the letters of their band name scattered randomly across the black mesh, while Leigh-Anne opted to copy her bandmate in the legwear department.

Making their way to the stage: Little Mix went monochrome for the evening, with Jesy sporting a striped blouse while Kade donned a cute pair of black shorts and personalised tights


Meanwhile, blonde beauty Perrie donned a pair of black trousers, braces and white shirt, while Jesy also went for a monochrome look in a striped black and white blouse with shiny black trousers.

The remaining four acts will no doubt be working as hard as they can in a bid to stay in the competition during this weekend's live shows.

It has been suggested that the final four have been given the opportunity to choose their own songs for the semi-finals, allowing them the chance to perform to the very best of their abilities.

But Misha said she thinks she will be going home this weekend, because the public will have been influenced by reports that she was bullying other contestants earlier this month.

She explained in a recent interview: 'Two Sundays ago I was ­preparing to go home. I said to the guys goodbye, I said to ­everyone (the staff) goodbye and thanks for now.

'That was it, I’m going home. But when my name was called it was amazing, absolutely amazing, mind-blowing.

'My name was called out first and I was in a state of shock for the rest of the day.
I’m grateful for that ­experience though, and I know what to expect in the future. It will help me develop.'

How she's changed: Pouty Abbey Crouch is unrecognisable from her fresh-faced teen years

By Andrea Magrath


Changing face: Abbey is sporting plumped-up lips and blonde hair these days


The staggering bright blue eyes are the exact same... but that's about where the similarities between this pretty young woman and the Abbey Crouch we know today end.

Posing confidently with highlights in her brunette hair and her vest pulled up to expose her midriff, she was a fresh-faced 18-year-old.

This was Abbey Crouch (née Clancy) in her days in girl band Genie Queen in 2004.

WAG-over: Abbey Clancy, pictured today, is unrecognisable from this picture of her at 18 in her Genie Queen girl band days


Two years later, she would make it to the finals of Britain's Next Top Model and catch the eye of footballer Peter Crouch.

Despite losing out to Lianna Fowler, Abbey's fame was cemented and her girl-next-door beauty would win her lucrative modelling contracts.

She was the face of EuroMillions and Lynx3 spray, and landed the covers of FHM and Sports Illustrated.


Plump up: Both pouting at the British Fashion Awards this week, and smiling in Dubai earlier this month (right) the WAG's lips are suspiciously fuller

Makeover: Abbey unveiled her plumped up look at the British Fashion Awards on Tuesday

But these days, Abbey's plumped-up lips and seemingly frozen, arch-eyed expression have led to speculation about what work the model may have had done to transform her looks.

Of course, seven years is going to make a difference to anyone's face, but the model and television presenter today is practically unrecognisable to her teenage self.

In new pictures taken this week, Abbey, still only 25, displays a surprisingly plump pout, in stark contrast to the natural smile she sported at the start of her fame.

A spokesperson for Mrs Crouch insisted to Mail Online that the WAG has not had any work done on her lips.

But photographs of the blonde beauty in 2006 and 2007 reveal a much more natural looking smile, with a thinner top lip.

And even pictures of the model smiling earlier this month in Dubai show a fuller smile.

Rooney hits the bottle: Coleen taps into her festive side as she dyes her hair red ahead of WAGs Christmas party

By Nadia Mendoza


Radiant: Coleen Rooney looked ready for party season with her newly dyed hair


Coleen Rooney appears to have had a makeover from her fairy godmother yesterday.

The mother-of-one stepped out during the day looking like any other parent clutching their tot, before emerging later as a redhead goddess.

Wayne's wife underwent the transformation for the WAGs Christmas party held by fashion designer Phillip Armstrong.

Dye-ing for a change: Earlier in the day Coleen Rooney sported fair hair during a lunch date with Kai, before going red for the WAGs Christmas party


The event was held at Room restaurant in Manchester yesterday, before Coleen headed to Rosso with Ashley Ward's wife Dawn for cocktails.

While swanning around earlier in the day, 25-year-old Coleen was pictured with Kai, one, dressed down in jeans and flip flops - albeit Chanel ones.

Festive: Coleen changed her hair ready for party season, sprucing up her all-black ensemble with red shoes and clutch


She bundled her blonde locks atop her head, wearing minimal make-up and bling while running errands.

However, the social butterfly later stepped out in an all-black ensemble, adding splashes of colour with her new tresses, red peep toe heels and a clutch bag to match.

Her lipstick was subtle and the neutral shades softened the Scouse brows.

A night off from mummy duties: Abbey Crouch had some time away from Sophia as she also attended the party in a star-speckled frock


Abbey Crouch also attended, taking another night off from mummy duties.

The former Britiain's Next Top Model contestant previously spent a night away from Sophia on Monday, leaving daddy Peter in charge as she headed to the bright lights of London for the British Fashion Awards.

Crouch, 25, looked elegant in a star-speckled frock as she sipped a fruity cocktail from a martini glass during a cigarette break.

The eyes have it: The A-list love it, but can you bear the panda look?

By Claire Coleman


Make-up aficionados might wax lyrical about nude make-up or statement lips, but for a show-stealing look this party season, the eyes have it.

And not just any eyes: we’re talking kohl-heavy, slick-lined, panda-style eyes, as favoured by Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, and her sister, Pippa.

Kate Winslet sports the look on the cover of November’s Harper’s Bazaar, and Victoria Beckham and Carol Vorderman have been going extra heavy with the eye pencil.


Smokey: Kate Middleton, left, and actress Emma Watson are big fans of the kohl-rimmed look


Starry-eyed: A-listers Sarah Jessica Parker and Victoria Beckham specialise in creating the perfect peepers

Sparkling: Dannii Minogue and Keira Knightley ensure their eyes pop by applying mascara to the lower lashes


So why are celebrities going back to black? After all, piling on the eyeliner is very much a retro look.

Panda peepers go right back to the Egyptians, but from a fashion perspective it came into its own in the Sixties when thick black lines were the perfect foil to futuristic clothes by the likes of Mary Quant.

Fast forward 50 years and this bold look was to be found on the catwalks of every fashion house for this year’s autumn/winter collections. Whether applied with Cleopatra flicks or lashings of black eyeshadow, kohl is king once more.

And yet it’s hardly the most forgiving style. In fact, applied too harshly, it can add years to even the most youthful face. Celebrity make-up artist Katie Reedman of Slap UK (which counts Sienna Miller, Twiggy and Anna Friel among its clientele) says Kate and Pippa are guilty of this.


Sultry: Bronzed beauties Penelope Cruz and Cheryl Cole accentuate their dark good looks with thick eyeliner


Model behaviour: Kate Moss and Kelly Brook both love to play up their eyes with heavy make-up


Brilliant brunettes: Liz Hurley and Carol Vorderman favour high-impact mascara and charcoal eyeshadow


‘It’s very easy to get eyeliner wrong. I think the way Pippa applies it looks too harsh and heavy. She’s a pretty girl, but the way she and her sister take the line all the way around the eye is ageing,’ she says.

So, how to get it right? Katie suggests using gel liner or a pencil rather than liquid.

‘Apply liner right inside the rim, as it gives a good strong base to the look.’

And if you’re blonde or nearing 50, swap black for grey or brown. ‘Black can be unforgiving as you get older,’ says Katie.

The flick is crucial. She suggests extending the natural curve under the eye towards the brow’s outer edge.

With practice, perfect black eyes could be achieved in time for the arrival next weekend of two stars who model the look effortlessly well — Tian Tian and Yang Guan, Edinburgh Zoo’s new giant pandas.

Crissy Rock is latest jungle diet success story as she squeezes into size six shorts after losing a stone and a half on I'm A Celeb

By Kirsty Mccormack


Noticing the benefits: The actress was jumping around in delight as she realised how much weight she has lost whilst being on the show


She may have branded herself 'fat' during the Beat The Bugs challenge but it seems Crissy Rock has had a change of heart.

The Benidorm actress was over the moon tonight as she revealed that she has lost weight since being in the jungle.

The blonde star revealed the news as she pranced around in a pair of Jessica-Jane Clement's red shorts - which she had left behind after leaving the show.

Contrast: Crissy looks much slimmer than she did when she first entered the jungle


'These are a size six, do I look fat in them? Crissy asked the group.

'Not at all, you look skinny in them,' replied Mark.

Crissy then began jumping up and down and shouted: 'The only time I’ve ever been in a six is in a shoe!'

'You must have lost a stone and a half,' Mark then said.

This just spurred the actress on and she continued to jump and dance around.

But her fun moment soon turned into something much serious as Fatima Whitbread urged her that she must follow through with the transformation once the ITV show comes to an end.

This angered Antony - who isn't Fatima's biggest fan - and he felt the need to go to the Bush Telegraph and get his feelings off his chest.

But once back with the group he was quick to give Crissy some advice also.

As she continued to pull the shorts up, he told her: 'Don’t pull them too tight darling, you don’t want a moment.'

'I can bend in them as well,' she said., which prompted Antony to ask: 'What couldn't you bend before?'

'I couldn't because my belly was in the way,' Crissy replied.

No doubt the weight loss has come about due to the scarce amount of food that the celebrities have to eat each day.

Although the camp mates have been fantastic at earning enough stars during the Bushtucker trials, the dinners they receive each day have still only been enough for small portions per person.

And it seems Crissy is used to a lot more than that normally as she revealed her usual purchases when stopping at a service station.


Making it fit: Crissy discovered that she had lost weight when she tried on Jessica-Jane's size six shorts


Losing weight: Crissy was so happy to have shed the pounds whilst in the jungle


'I'll normally pick up a few sausage rolls and two custard tarts,' she told the group.

Her camp mates persuaded her that she can no longer do that, and should stick to eating less in the future.

Another Kardashian on the way! Kourtney announces she is pregnant with baby number two

By Andrea Magrath


Surprise! Kourtney Kardashian has revealed she is pregnant with her second child


Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant with baby number two.

The 32-year-old reality star has revealed that she is just nine weeks into her second pregnancy.

Kourtney and partner Scott Disick, 28, already have a son Mason, who turns two on December 14.


In a statement to E! Kardashian said: 'Scott and I are so excited to announce that we are expecting our second child and are thrilled to be expanding the love in our family.'

Kourtney first revealed the news to this week's issue of Us Weekly.

The older sibling of Kim and Khloé told how she woke partner Scott up at seven o'clock after taking a positive pregnancy test to share the news.

And Kourtney was so excited, she couldn't wait the traditional amount of time before sharing it with the world.


Announcement: The reality star broke the news on the cover of Us Weekly today

If it's meant to be...': Kourtney's partner Scott Disick, pictured on a date this week, says 'It wasn't like we weren't trying'


'Now I'm nine weeks along,' Kardashian tells the magazine. 'You're supposed to wait 12 weeks to tell people, but I feel confident.'

In an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians in July, Kourtney was seen clashing with mother Kris Jenner after she mentioned that she and Scott were considering trying for another baby.

While their first child Mason was a happy surprise, the family matriarch is adamant that the couple should be married before thinking about expanding their family.

New sibling: The couple are already parents to adorable Mason, who turns two next month


In the episode, Kourtney is insistent that she will marry if and when she chooses, and admits the reason she is hesitant to walk down the aisle is because she doesn't want her children to go through a parents' divorce they way she did as a child.

Kourtney and Scott have broken up a number of times over Kourtney's disapproval of her partner's hard partying and anger issues.

During their stint in Miami last year, Kourtney ordered Disick to leave her and their son alone after he turned violent and smashed a mirror, telling him 'I love Mason more than I love you.'

Scott has since worked out his issues and has said he has no problem marrying his long-time love.

Feeling good: Kourtney, who is just nine weeks along, was in high spirits yesterday as she shopped in LA


He even proposed to an unimpressed Kourtney in the final episode of last season's Kourtney and Kim Take New York.

Turning down his offer of marriage during dinner on their four-and-a-half year anniversary in April, Kourtney asked, 'Things are so good right now, why would we want to change that?'

And headstrong Kourtney has clearly decided not to fulfill her mother's wishes to get married before falling pregnant again.

'It wasn't like we weren't trying,' Disick says. 'We kind of just said, "If it's meant to be, it'll be.'"

Growing brood: Mason's arrival in 2009 was a happy surprise for the couple, who have been together on and off for almost five years


Another member of the family who may not be thrilled over the news is Kourtney's sister Kim.

The 30-year-old, who recently separated from husband Kris Humphries after just 72 days, said in a magazine interview this week that she feels her dreams of children may be dashed.

‘At first I was like, I want six kids. Then I went down to four, then I was down to three, and now I'm like, maybe I won't have any.’


Defiant: Kourtney clashed with mother Kris Jenner earlier this year over not wanting to get married before having another baby

No marriage plans: Kourtney has said she has no plans to marry until she's sure her children won't have to go through a divorce the way she did


‘Maybe my fairy tale has a different ending than I dreamed it would.’

Younger sister Khloé, who married basketballer Lamar Odom in 2009, has also revealed that she is concerned about her difficulty in conceiving.

Speaking on The Today Show last month, the 27-year-old admitted: 'It's so hard. I never knew about ovulation and the limited amount of time that you have to get pregnant.

'I never knew about that. No-one ever taught me that.'
