Inside the nastiest celeb neighbour rows
      By Dan Cain
      MILLIONS of pounds might be able to buy a dream home – but it doesn’t guarantee a smooth ride with neighbours.
      Just ask the likes of Robbie Williams, Gordon Ramsay, Billie Faiers and Holly Willoughby who are just a few of the celebs that have clashed with other homeowners and local councils over their property plans.
      We dive into some of the most high-profile planning fall outs of recent years:
      Robbie Williams
      POP icon Robbie’s ownership of a huge south west London pad hasn’t been without its headaches.
      Most recently he’s felt the ire of a neighbour objecting to a proposal to trim some of the property’s trees which are said to be blocking light into the building.
      Robbie, 49, wants to prune 14 plants but has been branded a “vandal” because of it.
      A neighbour wrote to planners: “Hello there, I think these trees should be left as chopping down healthy trees is an act of environmental vandalism.
      “Shame on anyone wanting to destroy our leafy friends. They give us life – we should respect theirs.”
      Previously Robbie clashed with Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy over plans to renovate his £17.5million Grade II listed mansion.
      The rocker argued unsuccessfully that vibrations could damage ancient paintings and frescoes in his home, where he has lived for over 50 years.
      Gordon Ramsay
      Gordon’s idyllic Cornish bolt hole has been soured in recent years due to a backlash from locals during the coronavirus pandemic.
      Gordon’s issues with Cornwall started in 2020 when he, wife Tana and their five kids upped sticks from London to live in their £4million holiday home.
      They made the 246 mile trip when people could be fined for any non-essential travel and were urged not to stay in their second homes.
      He was called “disgusting” and accused of “flouting government rules” by one local, despite the star insisting he had done nothing wrong at the time.
      They raged: “Don’t you realise that by doing that you’ve possibly brought the virus with you and because Cornwall is not your main residence, if you and your family get sick you will place yet more strain on an already fragile infrastructure.
      “I’m reporting you to the police. What you’ve done is against the law and I hope they force you back to London.”
      The furore led Gordon to say he hates the Cornish people.
      Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan
      Mark and Michelle are happily living inside their £3.5million dream Essex home but the process wasn’t without its hiccups.
      They had to amend plans along the way and, to their credit, dealt with all the setbacks in the right manner.
      Their parish council previously objected to the size of the project and the height of proposed security gates and walls.
      Planning documents said: “This new amended application further increases the size of the dwelling, and the Parish Council feels that these proposed changes increase the size of the dwelling over the original dwelling size to such a degree that it would, for reasons of its bulk and size, now represent an unacceptable increase and as such have a detrimental impact on the green belt.”
      However, it wasn’t long before the proposal was deemed suitable and work quickly commenced.
      There was more strife when plans to bolster security at the property, turning it into a ‘fortress’, were rejected due to the proposed 2.1metre boundary wall being deemed out of keeping with the area. More

But today, it’s yours,” she added.Alex then shared a photo of the wedding cakes on her feed, announcing the two had gotten married on April 6.WEDDING DETAILSSpeaking about her special day, the Call Her Daddy host told Vogue that the ceremony was “everything we wanted it to be.”“It was emotional, heartfelt, and we tailored it to exactly how we always envisioned it,” she explained.Matt said the two wanted it to feel relaxed and authentic, adding that the day felt “very naturally curated.””We wanted to choose a destination that was private, romantic, and felt like a vacation for not only us but all of our guests,” Alex said.Most read in Celebrity”It was really important to us to keep the guest list small so we could be present with each other and the people who we love the most and who have helped us become who we are today.”Alex’s brother Grant officiated the wedding, while their dogs, Bruce and Henry, served as the ring bearers – running down the aisle with the couple’s rings around their necks.After Alex and Matt exchanged personal vows, the group headed to cocktail hour and later down to the beach in an open-air tent for dinner.At the reception, Alex said the “vibes were immaculate” as everybody hit the dance floor. “There were dance-offs, bottles being passed around, crowd surfing…and once again, I’m not a dancer, but there wasn’t a care in the world from anyone that night. Everyone was on cloud nine,” she told the outlet.The podcaster said the night ended with almost every guest running into the ocean.For the special day, the 29-year-old wore a custom Danielle Frankel wedding dress that “turned out to be her dream.””I felt so classic and chic in it. I felt confident and sexy while still elegant and timeless,” Alex elaborated.ALEX’S ENGAGEMENTAlex opened up about her proposal during an episode of Call Her Daddy last year, labeling it as “the best moment of her life.”Matt, notoriously known as “Mr. Sexy Zoom Man,” popped the question to the podcaster on March 3.Alex initially kept the news quiet for nearly a month, sharing it only with her close family and friends.She recalled the details of the special day, saying Matt was unable to fulfill his daily act of bringing her a cup of coffee because he supposedly had an early meeting.She then headed to a photoshoot for her interview with W Magazine, which turned out to be fake.When she returned home, she opened the door to find candles all over her house and a laptop next to a sign that read, “Play Me.”Her about-to-be fiance popped up on screen in the same outfit he wore during their initial Zoom meeting three years prior.Alex was then sent on a scavenger hunt around the house, which eventually led her to a closet where a blue sweatpant and sweatshirt set was laid out for her.She walked outside to more candles and white rose petals lined up along the ground, leading her to Matt and their two golden doodles.”You’re my person.
