Kylie's friendship with stylist turns sour

Kylie Minogue has fallen out with her stylist Will Baker, according to a report.

Baker has worked as the Aussie pop star's creative director over the past 15 years and the pair had become close friends, with Kylie affectionately referring to him as her "gay husband".

However, the Mail on Sunday has claimed that Kylie and Will are now both keen to spend time away from each other. Baker has been notably absent from Kylie's side recently, skipping the launch of her bed linen range and appearance at the Brit Awards.

Although Will is fulfilling his contractual obligation to work on Minogue's forthcoming European tour, it is believed that relations are frosty between the pair.

"Will has been such a support, but when two people spend too much time together there can be tension - and there has been tension," a source told the newspaper. "They have been spending a lot less time together recently."

The source added: "After being so close for so long, it is now very much just a professional relationship."
