Dark secret in the last unsealed JFK files that could make Donald Trump regret his vow to

Lee Harvey Oswald was being led down a corridor at Dallas police headquarters on the evening of November 22, 1963, when he uttered perhaps the most fateful phrase in the history of conspiracy theories. 'I'm just a patsy!' he screamed at reporters demanding to know whether he'd shot dead President John F Kennedy earlier that day in Dealey Plaza. Two days later, Oswald was himself shot dead by nightclub owner Jack Ruby in a moment captured live on television. He could never reveal whose 'patsy' he'd been - but there's been no shortage of suggestions. The Warren Commission, the official federal investigation into JFK's killing, concluded in 1964 that 24-year-old Oswald acted alone with no evidence of a conspiracy.

How the last Japanese soldier was finally lured out of the jungle 30 years after WWII

With her rosebud lips and raven-black hair contrasting with the snow-white of her complexion, the young woman in the photograph epitomised the legendary beauty of Japanese geisha. And this particular image of her in an alluring silk kimono had been specially chosen for the delicate task in hand. Brandished by a group of soldiers as they approached a bamboo hut deep in the jungle on the Indonesian island of Morotai, it was the bait they hoped would coax out its occupant - a man who'd had barely any contact with other humans for decades and was likely to be armed and dangerous. His name was Teruo Nakamura and he had been a private in the Imperial Japanese Army. Now it was December 1974, almost 30 years since the Second World War had ended. But Nakamura was convinced that it was still raging - and there was every danger he would come out fighting.

'I was Whitney Houston's bodyguard... But when she laid her head on my shoulder I was

The words were carefully composed, as if signifying how deeply meant they were: 'I will love you always.' They were written by none other than Whitney Houston - whose most famous song, of course, carried virtually exactly the same title. And the recipient of this heartfelt note? The man speaking to me today, former police officer David Roberts, who first became her bodyguard - and then The Bodyguard, the real-life inspiration for Kevin Costner's character in the movie for which Houston is most famous. The softly spoken Welshman, it's clear, still has strong feelings for the late Houston, who died aged just 48 from an overdose in 2012. He was her main source of protection through what was the most high-profile period of her life, 1988-1995.

I always thought my astrologer dad Jonathan Cainer was spouting nonsense. He was addicted

Jemima Cainer (right) was always determined never to follow her late legendary father, Jonathan Cainer (left with Jemima and two of his other children, and inset), into astrology. And the more he begged her to study the stars like him, the more she pushed back. 'I hated it. Loathed it,' she says. 'I was the biggest sceptic to the point of declaring myself a non-believer, and calling it all a load of rubbish!' Instead, she took a law degree, worked with vulnerable children, had three wonderful sons and, well, did everything she could to block out any sign that she might have inherited a bit of the family magic. Even after her father died suddenly, in 2016, of a catastrophic heart attack, she didn't waver. But as the years passed, the pull became stronger and the spiritual experiences more powerful.

Lady Victoria Starmer features as Tatler's latest cover star - as high society magazine
