She has had several breast augmentations as well as an operation to remove her implants after they ruptured but now Danielle O'Hara has revealed that she isn't happy with bigger breasts. 

The 29-year-old WAG is currently pregnant with her third child with her footballer husband Jamie and her changing shape has made her realise she prefers it when her chest is smaller. 

Speaking to Closer magazine Danielle said she hates her bust: 'They've gotten bigger and feel massive now. After having smaller boobs last year, I've realised I prefer them that way.'

Chest depressed: Danielle O'Hara has revealed that she is struggling with her blossoming pregnancy shape, particularly the size of her breasts

The model also explained that she is struggling to feel good and finding it hard to come to terms with  her mother-to-be shape. 

She said: 'When I'm naked in a bikini, I'm not confident. Everyone says I look great but my body is getting me down. I feel like I'm getting a lot more cellulite, which I didn't with my previous pregnancies.'

Danielle explained how she doesn't want to exercise because she doesn't want to risk suffering a premature arrival, after her second son Harry was born 10 weeks early. 

Bump on board: Despite the WAG's body woes she looked lovely in a bikini while on holiday in Tenerife last week

Bumping along: During a day by the pool Danielle was seen smiling at her bump

While Danielle might not be happy with her shape she appeared to be blossoming during a trip to Tenerife last week. 

Danielle showed off her changing shape in a series of pretty bikinis by spottedonceleb.com and she appeared to be glowing. 

The brunette estimates she has put on one and a half stone during her pregnancy taking her just over 10st 7lbs. 

Tassel-tastic: As well as a purple and green bikini Danielle was also seen sporting a mismatched two piece with tassel detail

Cool customer: Danielle has said that no matter what she feels about her figure her husband Jamie loves her shape

While Danielle might not be comfortable with her shape her husband Jamie certainly is. 

She said: 'I feel bigger all over and not at all sexy, but I know I'm lucky to have Jamie who loves me regardless. He's always complimenting my bump.'

Earlier this month Danielle enjoyed a baby shower with a group of pals including TOWIE stars Lydia Bright and her mother Debbie. 

Danielle announced her pregnancy in February and is expecting her third son later this year.

Breaking the grass ceiling: meet the women investing in a pair of balls

Golf has long been man's game. Kathryn Dobinson speaks to professional women who are utilising the golden snitches of business – golf balls – to tangible effects by joining a "golf for girls" networking scheme.

Ladies, if you want to be ballsy in business, you need to invest in a pair.

This isn’t about stuffing a lumpy pair of socks down your Marks and Sparks knock knocks, rest assured, it’s about utilising the golden snitches of business – golf balls.

For golf, says Adrienne Wax, author of Even Par: How Golf Helps Women Gain the Upper Hand in Business, is a critical tool in building and retaining client relationships which then translate into new business opportunities. The problem is that "women don’t seem to have got the ‘memo' about how effective a career tool the game is,” she tuts.

Some 90pc of 500 Fortune chief executives play golf, which proves Wax’s first point, but 481 of this Fortune 500 are men, proving her second. And I need not remind you of the recent hoo-hah at Augusta National Golf Club to hammer home that the green is perceived male territory.

Georgina Casas, a 35 year-old director at Hays Recruitment company, is putting paid to all that, founding the first 'Golf for the Girls' networking programme in London. The programme of tutorials and practice rounds in partnership with City Golf on Coleman Street have been so popular that the first inaugural women’s golf day went ahead this week at the world class Wentworth golf club in Surrey.

“We wanted to set up something across all sectors to engage female talent and we were inundated with applications when we first came up with the idea in September 2012,” she says. “There are 65 clients from retail, investment banking, professional services, finance, technology and wealth and asset management who join forces and meet up at 7am before work on a Tuesday or Wednesday morning for monthly lessons.

"All ladies here are really sporty but none had played golf before. The first couple of lessons were frustrating and I thought 'this is really hard.' But then the penny dropped and now I can't get enough of it."

Windlesham golf club: Our game is not stuffy, exclusive, nor reserved for middle-aged men

Historically women have seen the relationships men have developed on the golf course, she says. “There's over 500 staff at Hays and a ratio which is roughly 60/40 men to women. It's heavily male-dominated. I would find it hard and pressured to play with a group of males but maybe now I would be comfortable playing in a mixed group.

“What we’ve proved is we can certainly hold our own on the golf course. It's been a real eye-opener that, OK, we can do it. Move over boys.”

The results are tangible. Maybe the appeal lays in the forgiving handicap system that allows clients of differing ability to play together competitively. Charlotte Wheeldon is a corporate partner at law firm Wallace and says it's a fantastic way to build contacts and strengthen existing relationships. “A lot of my clients are keen golfers, and eighteen holes on a great course is often far more appealing to them than a business lunch.”

Similarly Wax, a former senior level advertising executive, says that some of her most important clients were golfers. “Not once did we discuss business during the entire day. As a result of our day of golf, we ended up becoming fast friends and golf buddies.” The hard bottom line? “They spent lots of money with us,” she says in her book.

But Condoleezza Rice (pictured), former US secretary of state, took up the sport when she was 50 and says she savoured the ‘strategy’ of the game and that it taught her patience. That kind of personal development is clear to see on the Hays programme. “Having given up a few very early, very dark, very cold mornings over the past few months for networking with a difference, I definitely have a greater appreciation of the sport and to some extent myself,” says Penny, an investment banker.

“I now appreciate the erudite ability, physical and mental strength, concentration and the personal battle that is undertaken with every stroke.

“There is a metaphor in there relating to my career in the city that I am sure many women will relate to.”

Cannes 2013 live blog day 6: Inside Llewyn Davis, As I Lay Dying

All the news, reviews, comment and buzz from the Croisette on day six of the Cannes film festival

Monday morning at the 66th Cannes film festival, where the Coen brothers' latest film, Inside Llewyn Davis, has been making quite a splash. In a five-star review the Guardian's Peter Bradshaw called it the "best so far at Cannes": 

Cannes audiences just heard a clean, hard crack: the sound of the Coen brothers hitting one out of the park. Their new film is brilliantly written, terrifically acted, superbly designed and shot; it's a sweet, sad, funny picture about the lost world of folk music which effortlessly immerses us in the period.

Read the full review here, take a look at a similarly enthusiastic video review from Henry Barnes ("this is real genius"), and also see Charlotte Higgins' report from the ILD press conference.

It's not been ALL Coen brothers over the weekend: catch up reviews ofJimmy P. (Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian) (the biggest stinker at Cannes so far, by the sound of it), guilty-pleasure documentary Seduced and Abandoned, 70s-set 'whopping cop-opera' Blood Ties, and alsoMonsoon Shootout, Tip Top, Borgman and The Dance of Reality.

Elsewhere we've interviewed Heli-director Amat Escalante, and, to the endless chagrin of certain below-the-line commenters, there are moregalleries of film stars swanking about on red carpets.

Coming up later: Xan Brooks' diary, a Guardian Film Show Cannes-special, an interview British director Paul Wright, reviews of As I Lay Dying (James Franco's second film as director – will it improve on hisfirst?), A Castle in Italy, The Grand Beauty and Takeshi Miike's Shield of Straw, photo galleries, news, comment, and possibly the odd bit of lowest-common denominator celeb tittle-tattle (fingers crossed). More as it comes in.

Keanu Reeves is in town to promote his directorial debut, Man of Tai Chi. Judging from the photo wires, photographers are making him do lots of slightly humiliating Tai Chi-esque poses.

Xan Brooks has filed his latest diary entry – here's a preview:

Standing beside me, jostling my shoulder, a European radio journalist provides an excitable running commentary. "Justin Timberlake!" he keeps screaming. "Justin Timberlake!" How many times can he scream Justin Timberlake? Either the man is having a galloping nervous breakdown or Justin Timberlake has come to the premiere with a parade of 12 clones.
