Robbie and Tara still an item? - Jan 8 2007
It seems socialite Tara PT and pop prince Robbie Williams have "chemistry" after their 10-day fling last year.
The 35-year-old told The Daily Mirror: "There’s still chemistry between me and Robbie. Robbie texts me all the time now. I’ve known him for three years and we are still close.
"Robbie has to share himself with millions of people and I’m lucky he’s got time for me."
Whilst the It girl refused to say whether they were together, pals admit the couple are "close".
A source added: "Whenever she’s in LA, they meet up and spend a night together at his house. And Robbie always make sure he comes to see Tara when he’s in the UK."
Tara, whose previous boyfriends include jewellery heir Pascal Mouawad, added the singer is in a "happy place".
She explained: "He’s told me he’s over the stress now. People have a go at him for being ratty but it’s no wonder because he’s always surrounded by so many people wanting a piece of him."
Tara joins the skinny debate - Sept 22, 2020
Socialite Tara Palmer Tomkinson has joined the debate about whether Britain’s models are too skinny.
The size 0 epidemic, which started a couple years ago in LA, is sweeping across water to the UK.
Waif-thin Hollywood icons like Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan and Kate Bosworth - who fluctuate between size 0 and 00 (UK size 2) - are the new pinup girls of trend-setting magazines and the public are crying out for magazines and designers to use larger models.
As London Fashion Week reaches a climax, Tara says: "I’ve seen some fabulous shows. I think there’s a lot of hype about nothing about these girls being a size 0 and stuff... I think they all look completely healthy, completely beautiful.
"I think everyone’s getting a bit over-dramatic as usual."
And Tara believes that sometimes people like herself are just naturally skinny: "It’s amazing the amount of people that come up and go, ’God you are so thin.... you’re too thin’.
"You wouldn’t go up to someone and go ’You are too fat’, as it’s so rude. I actually find it quite offensive they way people come up and say you’re too thin. Weight is your personal thing."
TPT of the Pops? - August 2006
Could Tara Palmer Tomkinson be heading for the charts? There have been rumours before but now news reaches us that she’s been in serious talks with pop mogul Louis Walsh about releasing material. As a gifted classical pianist Tara obviously has an ear for a tune but somehow we can’t imagine her doing one of Louis’ preferred stool-top ballads. Come to think of it we can’t really imagine her being able to balance on a stool at all.
Tara’s New Nose - August 2006
TPT is reportedly delighted with her new honker after undergoing surgery to correct a collapse caused by cocaine abuse. The socialite underwent a £6000 operation at London’s exclusive Princess Grace hospital in which cartilege was taken from her ear and inserted in to the collapsed septum. She is said to be delighted with the improvement and pictures have certainly shown her looking swollen but happy.

Tara made a comeback with an appearance on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here! She won the nation’s hearts with her ditzy upper class ways and was soon a regular on our screens. She was given a behind the scenes show for the next series of I’m A Celeb, which she continues to present in her own inimitable style.
Although a classically trained concert pianist Tara is undoubtedly better known for her high profile relationships with the likes of Robbie Williams and Duncan James. She has also been linked to posh popstar James Blunt.
In 2006 Tara hit the headlines again - her nose had collapsed in response to her years of cocaine abuse. However, Tara underwent surgery to correct the problem and has since been working on a pop career. Rumour has it that she has been working closely with Louis Walsh to change her tabloid image and top the charts.
