David Cameron weight-loss rumors fuel Eden Confidential chatter

A London gossip column has raised questions about former prime minister David Cameron’s weight, publishing claims that he may have shed as much as four stone. The Eden Confidential item notes that friends are weighing in on the extent of the reduction and whether it was achieved through medical interventions or strict lifestyle changes.

Two sources quoted in the piece offered different takes: one friend said, “Dave’s lost four stone,” while another suggested the change was closer to a stone and a half. The column raises the possibility of weight‑loss treatments, but it also stresses that specifics are unclear. Cameron’s spokesman declined to comment, telling Eden Confidential, “We are not going to comment on this as it is clearly a personal matter.” The column also recalls that Cameron has previously battled his weight, including a period before the 2015 election when he cut bread from his diet and exercised regularly.

Beyond the weight‑loss chatter, the column threads through a series of other celebrity snippets. Joss Stone—now back in Devon with husband Cody DaLuz and their eldest child—discusses relocation and the quirks of life in the United States, including a cicada that haunted her car. The Boisdale Music Awards in Canary Wharf provided a moment for the singer to reflect on home and family rather than international headlines. In another corner of show business, Sarah Symonds recalls Ross King, the TV host sometimes dubbed “Mr Sequins,” and recounts a night of wild hospitality that spilled into the bedroom details of her Hollywood hookups.

Meanwhile, Cara Delevingne has pivoted to what she calls a “wellness journey” after heavy partying in years past. A recent image showed the model wearing a humidifier face‑mask in bed, paired with a head therapy wrap, as she described her new routine of “music, sleep, repeat.” The piece also notes that Princess Anne, the Princess Royal, is advertising for a new programme manager to handle her busy schedule, with pay rising from £32,500 to £38,000 and a reported 474 engagements last year, outpacing even King Charles while he underwent cancer treatment.

The Eden Confidential column also takes aim at the media landscape itself. Alan Rusbridger, the longtime editor of Prospect magazine, is criticized by his predecessor David Goodhart in The Critic, who argues the current Prospect lacks novelty and has grown predictable. The item closes with a closing jab at a fashion photographer, Steve Shaw, who recounts an event where gatecrashers attempted a selfie with Ryan Seacrest and were promptly ejected, illustrating the intersection of celebrity culture and high‑society soirées.

In short, the column paints a snapshot of Britain’s intersecting worlds of politics, royalty, and entertainment, where weight, wellness, and personal histories become as much a topic of public discourse as policy or performance. The fact that no official confirmation exists underscores the rumor‑driven nature of celebrity gossip, even when public figures once held the levers of state authority. As the world follows these intertwined narratives, the line between personal choice and public fascination remains a moving target, a reminder of how quickly private lives can become part of the public story in today’s media environment.
