The Express March 8, 2004:

Traditionalists may be perturbed by claims that Tony Blair takes advice from lifestyle guru Carole Caplin on matters ranging from war in Iraq to war with Gordon Brown to, more alarmingly still, which underpants to wear.

Perhaps they would not mind Ms Caplin advising Mr Blair if she gave her own judicious verdict. But after Caplin receives a call from the Prime Minister she gets on the phone to her mum. Sylvia Caplin then, we are told, does a New Age reading involving a hidden force called The Light.
[...]
Blair would not be the first to have an unconventional guru. You can't get grander than the imperial Russian royal family, yet it relied on the bonkers Rasputin.
[...]
Bill Clinton used Anthony Robbins for "motivational therapy" . . . Nancy Reagan, wife of President Ronnie, used to study horoscopes and tarot cards before advising her old man.
[...]
President Mitterrand of France who, when not searching for deep truths with his mistresses, was consulting his court astrologer Elizabeth Teissier. In France they take these gypsy arts seriously; madame was made a doctor of philosophy by the Sorbonne.

President Mitterrand was merely following in the tradition of De Gaulle, whose astrologer, Major Maurice Vasset, drew up star charts to plot military campaigns for French generals [...]

The source is an intimate of Caplin and real-estate agent for Cherie Blair, who intimates that the Light-channeler's grandchild is fathered by Tony Blair.Sunday Times March 7, 2004:

In an e-mail to his lawyer quoted in the American magazine, Foster describes what he claims were repeated late-night calls between Tony Blair and Caplin. "Since Carole has become pregnant, Tony is now ringing nearly every night," he wrote. "She used to lay in bed next to me and talk to him but it is becoming more secretive of late."

Tea for three? Sunday Mirror March 7, 2004:

Peter Foster claims his former fiancee was in love with the PM and that they were so close that Mr Blair became the "other man" in her life.

He says Ms Caplin - the lifestyle guru and style adviser who used to massage the Blairs and reportedly took "therapeutic" showers with Cherie - even shopped for Mr Blair's underwear. Foster says, ". . . I believe that Carole is in love with Tony, and I was caught in that triangle."
