JERRY HALL HAS REVEALED HER VIOLENT FATHER BEAT HER THROUGHOUT HER CHILDHOOD.

Jerry Hall has revealed her violent father beat her throughout her childhood.

The former supermodel, the ex-wife of Sir Mick Jagger, says her drug addicted, alcoholic father John Hall hit her and her four sisters so hard he broke their bones.

The 51-year-old Texan beauty confessed: “He would talk to us like soldiers. He was very imaginative in his insults, and that is hard to get over. He was very violent. He took uppers (drugs) and would come home and beat us five girls. He broke bones.”

Jerry’s father, a former US army sergeant-turned-truck driver, wanted a boy so badly he gave his daughters all male names. She believes her dad was driven to drink and drugs because of his own upbringing and war experiences.

Kanye West has split from his fiancee.

The ‘Stronger’ rapper and Alexis Phifer – who got engaged in 2006 while holidaying in Italy – have decided to end their relationship but insist the break-up was amicable.

Alexis, who began dating Kanye in 2002, told Us Weekly magazine: "It's been hard and not been an easy time. I tried to keep things private but yes, it's sad when things end like this and we truly do remain friends. I wish him the best in his future and in all of his endeavours. He's one of the most talented people I've ever met, that's for sure."

Sources say Kanye - who briefly split from Alexis in 2004 - is too busy with his current world tour and music career to have any time for romance.

Heather Mills’ father has released a series of home movies to disprove her claims she suffered an abusive childhood.

Mark Mills – who Heather has claimed is a “schizo” who viciously beat her – vehemently denies her accusations, and has revealed footage of his daughter playing happily on a family holiday to Wales.

Mark – who has trouble speaking after a stroke - told Channel 4 documentary 'Heather Mills: What Really Happened': “There was no violence. I’m convinced.”

The 64-year-old has not seen Heather for 20 years, and insists her tales of living in fear of his violent temper are a complete fantasy.

Elvis Presley once visited England and went to the Houses of Parliament.

The late music legend enjoyed a day out in London and was shown around by British singer Tommy Steele, it has been claimed.

Theatre producer Bill Kenwright, a close friend of Steele’s, told BBC Radio 2 that Elvis struck up a friendship with the singer – seen as Britain’s answer to Elvis - over the phone and they secretly spent a day together in the mid-50s.
