SHARE WITH A FRIEND           CULTURE    FOOD & DRINK    TRAVEL    STYLE    INTERIORS    PROPERTY                 Dear Karen, It’s a fact that truth is stranger than fiction and just as I alluded to my obsession with real-life scam stories last week, tell me who hasn’t been gripped by the two cases of Wagatha Christie and Heard vs Depp. I’m unsure in which direction my moral compass is pointing to be honest, there are so angles to consider. And while final judgments have yet to be passed, does in fact the court of public opinion matter more? And, therefore, what road does that lead us down… ? Questions, questions… Have a great week.  Photo: 'Grandiflora Rose' wallpaper design by Designers Guild                   WHAT’S EXCITING ME THIS WEEK       EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT LOVE I love Dolly Alderton – her agony aunt column in ST Style is a must-read and how I miss the High Low podcast. Luckily, then, a film of her warm, witty and wise memoir is out on 7 June… and yes, our next print issue might just have something to do with it… You heard it here first. (Image: BBC Pictures)         THE LONG WEEKEND The jubilee celebrations are finally upon us. If you haven’t bagged your front row space on The Mall for a piece of the live action, we’ve got you covered with everything you need to know about how to join in the jubilee fun.
