Star wars: Celebrity family feuds

Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr’s business empire was shaken last month when her mother Therese launched a rival skincare line in direction competition with the supermodel’s Kora Organics.

It was a surprising move that suggested all is not well in the Kerr camp. Rumours of a rift between the mother and daughter team have been swirling since Therese stepped down as general manager of Kora Organics last January.

She then posted a cryptic message on Twitter reading: “I brought you into this world and I can take you out of it.”

But Miranda isn’t the only star who is battling an apparent family feud – these celebs are all locked in battles with blood relatives.
