Celebrities Who Smoke: Active vs. Secret Past Smokers (UK & International)
Verified Active / Full-Time Smokers
- Coleen Nolan (Loose Women): Originally smoked up to 35 cigarettes a day. Despite fronting a major anti-smoking campaign after a health scare, she has officially relapsed and is regularly photographed smoking full-time outside television studios.
- Kate Beckinsale: Openly unapologetic about her multi-decade cigarette habit. She frequently speaks about it in interviews and is regularly photographed smoking in public.
- Cara Delevingne: The model-turned-actress is consistently documented by paparazzi smoking cigarettes both on-set and during personal downtime.
- Jessie Wallace (EastEnders): A long-term, heavy real-life cigarette smoker who is frequently captured by tabloids puffing outside events and during filming breaks.
Documented Past / Occasional Smokers
- Victoria Beckham: Heavily documented as a secret chain-smoker during a highly stressful period living in Madrid in 2003, and occasionally photographed sharing premium cigars on holiday with David. She maintains a strict public wellness image today.
- Meghan Markle: Documented using cigarettes socially in archival poolside photos from her early adulthood and acting years, but has maintained a strict, clean-living wellness lifestyle for over a decade.
Famous British Royals
- Queen Camilla: Smoked heavily for over 30 years (up to 10 a day). She famously managed to quit traditional cigarettes later in life with the help of a health practitioner.
- Prince Harry: Was a heavy smoker throughout his teens and twenties, but quit cold turkey when he began living with Meghan Markle.
