In Touch Weekly is an
American celebrity gossip
magazine. The magazine is focused on
celebrity news, fashion, beauty, relationships and lifestyle, and is geared towards a younger readership, billing itself as "fast and fun", along with making claims about their lower cover price on their front cover to encourage buyers to purchase their magazine rather than the other titles on a supermarket checkout rack.
The magazine was launched in
2002 by
Bauer Publishing and Richard Spencer has been editor since its launch.
The magazine shares a publisher with its sister magazine
Life & Style Weekly, a similar weekly gossip magazine. Whereas
In Touch is focused more on celebrity gossip,
Life & Style bills itself on giving readers lifestyle tips on how to incorporate celebrity beauty and fashion into their lives.
On September 18, 2006, after the death of
Daniel Smith, son of
Anna Nicole Smith,
Getty Images sold the last photos taken of Daniel alive at his mother's bedside to
In Touch Weekly and
Entertainment Tonight for a reported $650,000.
