I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! viewers fumed as they believed they rumbled McFly’s Danny Jones’ game plan on the show as he made it to the final six campmates

Danny Jones has riled I’m A Celebrity viewers as they believed they cracked his game plan.

The McFly singer is in the final six of this year’s series as the camp said goodbye to Barry McGuigan and Maura Higgins on Thursday night. However, fans of the show have pointed out Danny has sailed through quite easy compared to his campmates. During Friday night’s episode, the camp had to pick two celebrities to take on an eating trial.

Reverend Richard Coles and Coleen Rooney ended up volunteering themselves for the task to try to secure stars for camp. Dancing On Ice judge Oti Mabuse offered to take part, yet Coleen insisted she would give it ago. Many viewers noticed Danny didn’t offer to take part in the trial, which isn’t the first time.

Fans thought he could be showing his game plan to get through the show without doing so many grueling challenges. One viewer said: “Has danny ever offered to do a trial #ImACeleb.” Another added: “I love Danny to bits but he never puts himself forward for the trials. Oti and Richard especially put themselves forward a lot, but Danny just isn’t doing enough for my liking.”

Someone else commented: “I’m surprised Danny has not volunteered more?” A fourth wrote: “Bit of a lack of volunteers there for the trial, people need to step up if they want to win. Where was Danny, GK and Alan?” One viewer pointed out: “How Danny hasn’t offered to do a trial in ages.”

Despite seemingly making things easier for himself by not taking on the trials, Danny has won over a legion of fans and is favourite to be crowned King of the Jungle. During last night’s episode, fans admitted they were in tears after Danny, 38, open up about his relationship with his dad.

Danny revealed to Oti that he wanted to change his middle name, which he got from his dad. However, the musician shared that his dad doesn’t speak to him, and admitted: “It’s just weird because I don’t feel I’ve really healed with it maybe.” He then shared that fellow campmate Barry McGuigan, 63, was serving as a father figure to him in the jungle – just moments before Barry was evicted.

“You can go to therapy, but you still crave your dad and that’s what’s hard. That’s why I get so much satisfaction out of Barry,” he said. Oti agreed: “I can see that and that’s why he’s so protective over you, like a scorpion.” Danny explained that his dad was his best friend, but things quickly changed: “When he left us, that’s when I had to grow up real fast, I bought my mum’s house. I was 18 years old, I bought myself a flat in London and I bought my mum’s house, and I put my sister through university.”

Geordie duo Ant and Dec have announced the latest stars to leave the I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here jungle just days before the final

Alan Halsall and GK Barry and became the latest campmates to be sent packing from the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here jungle in another shock double exit.

The news comes just days before the elusive final on Sunday and prior to this year’s Celebrity Cyclone. They follow Barry McGuigan and Maura Higgins out of the camp after the duo were sent packing during Thursday night’s episode of the ITV gameshow in a dramatic twist.

One user gasped on Twitter/X: “Like last night, I’m not super surprised by Alan, but GK Barry has shocked me! Moment of silence for her friendship with Reverend Richard though because that’s a spin-off waiting to happen #ImACeleb”

“Gutted, I wanted Alan in the top 4,” added another, while a third said: “Losing Maura one day and GK Barry the next. The British public CAN NOT BE TRUSTED. I can’t believe it #ImACeleb”

Coronation Street star Alan admitted his time was nothing like he expected, saying he met 11 amazing people when speaking to Ant and Dec. He said bonding was a “pleasant surprise” and he admitted he is surprised he was able to make new friends at 41 years old.

He also admitted he had struggled with boredom in camp, saying that while some didn’t appreciate it, it helped him in his journey. Alan admitted he missed his daughter and said it’s “very intense” being in the camp.

Fans loved Alan’s actions immediately after leaving. One beamed: “Alan getting a selfie with Ant and Dec is iconic. #ImACeleb #imacelebrity2024”

When speaking to GK Barry following her exit, Ant and Dec praised the podcaster’s time in the jungle, joking she was “scared of everything” in the jungle.

As she finished in fifth place she screeched “I’m free” as she said she felt “really good” at being out of camp.Speaking to the Geordie presenters, she said: “I can’t believe I’ve looked that way on national television,” before admitting she didn’t know how much she swore.

She explained her experience was worse than expected, saying the trials were “hell” and she “wouldn’t put my worst enemy through that”. However, she gushed over her campmates, saying she met a great bunch of friends. “I feel so much more comfortable in myself,” she admitted. However, she said the boredom and hunger in camp were tough to handle – until Reverend Richard Coles’ arrival.

Of their friendship, she said: “I love him. I’m a potty mouth, vile person… he’s more dirty than me. I was shocked we got on so well.” She then said he has to win, joking it’s a fix if he doesn’t.

Fans were stunned a day earlier as boxing legend Barry and Love Island star Maura were told to leave. However, during her exit chat with Ant and Dec, Irish bombshell Maura revealed: “I’m really happy! I said it last night, I said it this morning, I was like ‘It’s my time,’ I had a gut feeling and my gut feeling is never wrong!” She added that she knew it was “tough” but claimed her time on the show was the “most amazing” experience.

Barry also praised his time on the show, but said it was “harder” than he initially expected. He confessed he wanted McFly’s Danny Jones to win the series, saying: “It makes me feel great, all my kids are the same age as him, or around the same age as him.”

Radio 1 DJ Melvin Odoom had became the fourth celebrity to be sent packing earlier in the week too, following Tulisa’s surprise exit. Before she left, Dean McCullough’s headed for the exit, with Loose Women star Jane Moore the first to have received her marching orders via the public vote.

A palace source confirms that Princess Catherine has been making calls, speaking with staff and staying informed on the latest research for her royal causes while doing “a little work from home,” That shift in priorities around her health has been crucial.

She’s not ready to come back full-time just yet. There’s a new report that suggests Kate Middleton is thinking twice about her royal comeback. That’s mostly because she’s not out of the woods just yet with her health. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.

Royal Family News – Kate Middleton Is Thinking Twice About Her Royal Comeback

As many royal fans already know, the Princess of Wales made her first surprise public appearance last month after announcing that she had completed her chemotherapy.

However, it’s been said that Kate Middleton wants to take it really slow when it comes to her royal engagements and public appearances as she’s in no hurry to get back to work on a full-time basis anytime soon.

She knows that time is precious and she doesn’t want to stress out her body if she doesn’t have to.

Instead, she wants to continue to recover from her cancer diagnosis, spend time with her family and friends and focus on what’s more important in her life especially now that the holidays are coming up.

Royal expert Christopher Andersen, who often has something or another to say about the royals on almost a daily basis, put it this way: “Kate has a lot more energy than she did even a few weeks ago.

She’s tremendously relieved that the treatments seem to have worked and she can call herself cancer-free, but she’s not taking anything for granted. She’s following doctor’s orders…[It’s] baby steps.”

Andersen added, “Kate has been [doing this] for some time but is not yet back to full strength.”

 

Royal Family News – What’s Next For The Princess Of Wales?

“It will be some time—certainly months—before we see her plunge headlong into a full-time schedule.”

 

So far Kate Middleton herself has not made any comments about the matter, although it’s doubtful that anything will be sait at this point.

Prince William And Kate Middleton Want To Keep Things Are Private As Possible For This Reason

 

They’ve only got one life and even if it is a royal life, they want to make the most of it. There’s a new report that suggests Prince William and Kate Middleton want to keep things as private as possible for one particular reason. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.

Prince William And Kate Middleton Want To Keep Things Are Private As Possible For This Reason

While there’s no doubt that every marriage has its ups and downs, the Prince and Princess of Wales have certainly gone through a lot these last several years, especially with Kate’s cancer diagnosis.

That’s why William and Kate have mostly decided to put their differences to the side as they’ve realized that life is just too short to argue and that every day should be treated like it’s special between them.

Royal expert Jennie Bond, who often has something or another to say about the royal family, opened up about the matter in a new interview with OK! Magazine.

She said, “Catherine’s battle with cancer has almost certainly brought them even closer together. If they needed a reminder, they now know only too well that life is short and every day is precious.”

What’s Next For The Prince And Princess of Wales?

“It is delightful to see how openly loving William is around his wife: they adore one another and they are happy for the world to see it.”

“William looks and sounds like a man who has found his place in life. He seems assured and confident in his role, both as a future King and as a happily married family man.”

She continued, “I think he is clear in his own mind these days that he can justify his position in life by using his platform to try to make the world a better place.”

“He’s proving that with his Earthshot project, his campaign to help the homeless and his work on mental health.”

“And that the same confidence is evident in his private life.”

Prince William’s latest actions seem to deliver a decisive blow to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s aspirations in Hollywood, as royal insiders suggest that the couple may face significant setbacks following this unexpected move.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who stepped down from their royal roles in 2020, ventured into the entertainment industry with high-profile deals and a determination to build a successful brand. Yet, Prince William’s recent steps have reportedly thrown a wrench into their plans, sparking rumors that the Sussexes’ Hollywood journey may be nearing its end.

The Context of William’s “Final Blow”
The reported fallout centers around a series of strategic moves by Prince William that insiders believe were intended to strengthen the image and influence of the core royal family.

While the specifics of this “final blow” remain somewhat guarded, royal watchers speculate that it involves high-level negotiations with media outlets and global organizations, including the same platforms where Harry and Meghan previously found support.

Sources suggest that by securing these valuable alliances, William has effectively limited Harry and Meghan’s access to influential networks, making it more difficult for the Sussexes to maintain their foothold in Hollywood.

One aspect of William’s strategy may include aligning with key Hollywood producers and directors sympathetic to the royal family, thus indirectly placing a cloud over potential projects that the Sussexes might undertake. This quiet, behind-the-scenes maneuvering could make it harder for Meghan and Harry to find top-tier partners for future productions, documentaries, and series.

Harry and Meghan’s Hollywood Aspirations
Since relocating to California, Harry and Meghan have pursued several high-profile ventures. Their deals with major streaming platforms such as Netflix and Spotify initially suggested a promising start, but reports of internal challenges, mixed reception, and stalled projects have plagued their progress. Harry’s recent documentary projects and Meghan’s voiceover work for Disney have kept them in the public eye, yet it seems they haven’t achieved the sustained success they envisioned.

Harry and Meghan’s brand hinges on authenticity, personal storytelling, and a commitment to social causes. Hollywood experts point out, however, that the public may be growing weary of the couple’s narrative, especially as they continue to navigate ongoing controversies with the royal family. Prince William’s latest move could accelerate this fatigue, effectively dampening the couple’s appeal and leading industry insiders to think twice before investing in Sussex-led projects.

Mixed Reactions from the Public
Public opinion remains divided, with many loyal fans expressing sympathy for Harry and Meghan’s struggles and admiration for their efforts to make a difference on their terms. These supporters argue that the couple has faced unfair scrutiny and praise them for courageously sharing their personal journey, despite the backlash. Some fans see William’s actions as a direct attempt to undermine the Sussexes, interpreting his moves as a way of preventing them from achieving financial independence and making an impact outside the monarchy.

However, other viewers see the Sussexes’ Hollywood pursuits as opportunistic, questioning their motives and wondering if their interest in social justice and mental health awareness is as genuine as it seems. This group is less forgiving, viewing the couple’s issues with the royal family as a strategy to stay relevant in a competitive media landscape.

What’s Next for Harry and Meghan?
If William’s reported moves indeed make Hollywood collaborations harder to come by, Harry and Meghan may need to pivot their approach. Some experts suggest that the couple might focus more on their philanthropic foundation, Archewell, or explore roles that allow them to advocate for social causes without relying heavily on Hollywood partnerships. By reinforcing their reputation as advocates rather than entertainers, they may regain some of the credibility they risk losing.

 

Alternatively, Harry and Meghan could choose to step back from the limelight altogether, opting for a quieter life and focusing on smaller-scale, meaningful projects. While this would represent a significant shift from their current high-profile lifestyle, it might allow them to rebuild their image away from the pressures of Hollywood.

The Impact on the Royal Family
For the royal family, William’s moves may signify a strategic effort to reinforce the monarchy’s standing, both within the UK and internationally. By distancing the family from the Sussexes’ controversies and reasserting control over key media relationships, William might be aiming to preserve the institution’s integrity. This decision could set a precedent for how the royals handle future dissent within the family, suggesting that the Firm is prioritizing unity and stability above individual members.

Conclusion: Is This Really the “Final Blow”?
While it’s too soon to say if Prince William’s recent actions will end Harry and Meghan’s Hollywood pursuits, they undeniably add pressure to an already challenging situation. As the Sussexes navigate these new obstacles, the couple may need to reassess their strategy if they hope to remain influential figures in the entertainment world. Whether this “final blow” marks the end of their Hollywood journey or a new beginning will ultimately depend on Harry and Meghan’s resilience—and their willingness to adapt to an ever-evolving landscape.

In early 2018, Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales, made it clear to Prince Harry that he was not prepared to fully support him and his soon-to-be wife, Meghan Markle. These revelations, among others, were unveiled in Robert Jobson’s book, “Our King: Charles III — The Man and the Monarch Revealed.” According to reports, Harry grew increasingly frustrated during the conversation as the future King Charles III explained that he couldn’t afford to financially support not only Harry and Meghan but also Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince William, Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, and their young family. Prince Charles, as the heir to the throne, received annual earnings from the Duchy of Cornwall, and he did not rely on funding from Queen Elizabeth II’s Sovereign Grant.

These revelations align with complaints that the Duke of Sussex expressed in his memoir, “Spare,” where he wrote about his inability to earn money “to support my family.” The disclosure came shortly after Harry lost his legal battle in the High Court to retain taxpayer-funded security. Documents from the case, decided on February 28, revealed that Harry even demanded to know the specific person who authorized the removal of Sussex’s security four years ago. In early 2020, Harry and Meghan Markle decided to leave the United Kingdom, a move popularly known as “Megxit,” with reasons that have been the subject of ongoing debate among analysts and the couple themselves.

Regardless of the underlying reasons for their departure, government-funded royal security is typically provided only to senior royals who actively work for or receive funding from the annual Sovereign Grant. It is widely understood that members of the monarchy who receive such security reside full-time in Britain and continue to fulfill their public and private duties as representatives of the reigning monarch. Both of these principles were abandoned when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made their decision to leave.

In February 2020, the flame-haired prince filed a claim against the British Home Office after their decision to withdraw security, and he released a statement last December defending his choice. Harry expressed that he and the Duchess of Sussex felt compelled to leave the monarchy nearly four years ago.

“With great sadness, my wife and I felt forced to step back from our roles and leave the country in 2020. The U.K. is my home. It is central to the heritage of my children, and I want them to feel at home there, just as they do where they currently reside in the United States,” read Harry’s recent witness statement, underscoring his deep connection to the United Kingdom.

Now, in a significant move, the new Invictus Games Patron, Mike Tindall, has made a bold decision: he’s barred Harry from participating in the 2024 competition in Germany. This move has put the Prince in his place, and let’s unpack this moment that’s sure to stir some emotions.

According to Tindall, this decision wasn’t made lightly. He explained that allowing Harry to attend would risk overshadowing the incredible achievements of the athletes. Tindall, a former rugby player, diplomatically expressed that Harry’s presence could be distracting, emphasizing his commitment to the Invictus Community.Tindall didn’t mince words, suggesting that Harry’s personal issues and public feuds could undermine the event’s purpose. By sidelining Harry, Tindall aims to ensure that the Invictus Games remain focused on honoring military veterans’ resilience and sacrifice, qualities that Harry’s recent actions seem to lack.

The decision has sparked controversy, with Harry’s camp expressing disappointment. His spokesperson highlighted Harry’s connection to the Invictus Community, suggesting the Games provide vital support for wounded veterans. However, critics argue that Harry’s presence could turn the event into a media spectacle rather than a tribute to military service.

Tindall’s decision, supported by his role as a respected member of the royal family, underscores the event’s integrity. It’s seen as a necessary step to preserve the Games’ original vision amidst growing concerns about Harry’s public persona overshadowing their purpose.

In a startling turn of events at Rupert Murdoch’s wedding with Elena Jaava on June 5th, 2024, what was supposed to be a joyous occasion quickly spiraled into chaos and drama when Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, unexpectedly appeared uninvited, attempting to crash the ceremony.

Eyewitnesses recounted scenes of pandemonium as Meghan strode into the exclusive chapel where the nuptials were underway. Video footage captured a visibly enraged Murdoch rising from his seat, his face flushed with anger, and marching towards Meghan, shouting, “Get out of here at once! You’re not welcome!” His voice cut through the stunned gasps of the high-society guests present.

Reports indicated Meghan, 42, looked taken aback by Murdoch’s furious reaction but stood her ground, arguing loudly that as a member of the British royal family, she had every right to attend. This only seemed to further enrage Murdoch, 93, who then attempted to physically remove her from the church, grabbing her arm amidst a scuffle that ensued with Meghan’s security team rushing to intervene.

The confrontation caused pandemonium among the guests, with security personnel scrambling to restore order. It took several tense minutes before calm was restored, and a visibly shaken Meghan was escorted off the premises.

The motive behind Meghan’s uninvited appearance remains unclear. Speculation suggests lingering resentment towards Murdoch’s media empire, which has been critical of her and Prince Harry. Others speculate she may have sought attention at a high-profile event. Regardless, Meghan’s disruptive actions drew widespread condemnation.

A spokesperson for Murdoch denounced the incident as an unacceptable privacy violation and disrespect for the sanctity of their wedding celebration. Legal action against Meghan and her security team was being considered.

Despite the disturbance, Murdoch, 93, and Jaava, 39, managed to exchange vows in a subdued ceremony attended by close friends and family. Mrs. Murdoch was seen comforting her visibly shaken husband afterward.

This incident adds to Meghan’s history of controversy since stepping back from royal duties in 2020. Her activism and public statements continue to polarize public opinion. Meghan’s uninvited presence at Murdoch’s wedding is expected to fuel further debate and speculation about her actions and potential legal consequences in the aftermath of this dramatic event.

“Make Your Own Kind of Music — Live at Althorp” will be released later this week

The U.K.’s award-winning Rock Choir is harmonizing for the 25th anniversary of The Diana Award established in memory of Princess Diana by releasing a special new charity song.

On Oct. 31, Rock Choir will drop the official music video for the song, “Make Your Own Kind of Music — Live at Althorp,” with the tune to debut on Nov. 1. Around 350 members of the contemporary choir convened to record their rendition of “Make Your Own Kind of Music,” originally released by Cass Elliot in 1969, in September at Althorp.

Rock Choir’s rendering is raising money and awareness for The Diana Award during the organization’s 25th anniversary year, a statement said. The Diana Award is the only charity established in memory of Princess Diana, who died following a car accident in Paris in 1997 at age 36. The youth-focused organization is uniquely supported by both of her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, and endeavors to ensure “no young person is left out or left behind.”

Princess Diana ‘Went Where the Pain Was,’ Says The Diana Award CEO — and Now Her Sons Are Doing the Same (Exclusive)

While fans will have to wait a little bit longer to hear the song, Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer, gave a peek into the recording as it happened at Althorp House.

Althorp is the Spencer family’s ancestral home in Northamptonshire, England, and where Princess Diana grew up. Charles, the 9th Earl Spencer, continues to live there today and the late Princess of Wales is buried at Oval Lake.

“What a treat to welcome 350 members of the Rock Choir to ⁦@AlthorpHouse⁩ today — recording a charity single for the wonderful ⁦@DianaAward⁩,” Charles, 60, wrote on X on Sept. 20 below a video of the members of the choir joining their voices. “The Diana Award was set up 25 years ago to continue my sister’s legacy of care and hope among young people all over the world.”

In another message (with video!) about “Take 8” of the Rock Choir singing, Charles added, “Such a lovely sound. I hope the record does really well for ⁦@DianaAward.”

Prince Harry Says the Younger Generation ‘Give Me Hope’ at Event Tied to Mom Princess Diana

A snippet shared to Instagram showed the Rock Choir singing at the memorial to Princess Diana on the island where she is buried, and in front of Althorp House. Dr. Tessy Ojo CBE, CEO of the Diana Award, also appeared in the video and spoke about why the partnership means much.

“[Princess Diana] was a woman that made her own type of music. It’s our 25th anniversary, and that’s 25 years of driving change for young people,” Ojo said in the video shared to Instagram. “It’s wonderful to be partnering with Rock Choir, who have brought their flair of music to our work! Joining us in amplifying the incredible change that can happen when young people are invested in.”

She served the Queen and Prince Philip for 22 years and became a senior housemaid at Buckingham Palace.

The Queen was said to be fond of June and she travelled with her and the Duke of Edinburgh, serving at Sandringham, Windsor Castle, Balmoral and on the Royal Yacht Britannia.

She used to regale her family with the story of how she once danced the Gay Gordon Scottish country dance with Prince Philip at a party.

June retired in the mid-1990s and used to live in an apartment on the royal estate at Windsor.

Now suffering from dementia and aged 87, June’s family were selling her royal Christmas cards to help pay for her care.

There were 24 cards in total dating from 1987 to 2018, with some years missing.

Also going under the hammer in October were two personal handwritten cards from Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York.

Mimi Connel Lay, of Lay’s Auctioneers of Penzance, Cornwall, said: ‘June’s collection of Christmas cards are a testament to her devotion to the Royal family.

‘Even though she retired from service in the mid-1990s, she still received a Christmas card from the Queen and Prince Philip up until the Queen’s death.

‘It is rare for a phenomenal and personal collection such as this to come onto the market. June now has dementia and is in a care home and her family have made the difficult decision to sell these treasured items to help with her care.

‘Some of the Christmas cards are great from an historic perspective, showing Harry right in the centre and bosom of his family, which is rather poignant given the current rift.’

The card for Christmas 1987 carries a photograph of the Queen and Prince Philip and their four grandchildren at the time, Peter, Zara, William and Harry.

June is originally from Guernsey and never had children.

In recent years she has lived in Cornwall, near her great niece, Michaell Dunne, who is selling the collection.

Mrs Dunne, 45, said: ‘She was very loyal to the Queen who I think cared for the people who were around her every day.

‘Auntie June was always very descreet when it came to the royal family and never gossiped.

‘She did say that her duties included preparing the Queen’s bedroom for bedtime or going in to open the curtains in the morning.

‘June’s favourite story was a New Year’s Eve party where the staff were invited to and she danced the Gay Gordons with Prince Philip, that was her claim to fame.

‘June has lived in a care home in Cornwall for the past six years and has advancing vascular dementia these days. She forgets that the Queen and Prince Philip have passed away and gets upset if reminded.

‘We’d love for June’s collection of cards to be treasured by future generations of people who love the royal family the same way that she does.’

Cruz Beckham and his girlfriend Jackie Apostel channelled a young Posh and Becks in their latest PDA snap.

Cruz, 19, and the singer, 29, looked just like his parents David and Victoria Beckham in the ’90s as they cuddled up in a bedroom.

The youngest Beckham son was the spitting image of his football legend dad as he showed off his arm tattoos and shaved eyebrow while wearing a baggy white T-shirt.

Jackie, meanwhile, bore a striking resemblance to Posh Spice as she posed in a plunging white halterneck top and blue jeans, with her dark hair piled on her head.

The Brazilian singer knelt on the bed with her legs around Cruz and her arm around his neck as he placed his hand on his thigh.

Jackie – who began dating Cruz in June – posted a photo of their Polaroid on her Instagram Story with a tearful face emoji on Friday.

This isn’t the first time the former girl band member has shared loved-up snaps with Cruz on social media.

Earlier this month, she shared a photo of them passionately kissing with their arms wrapped around each other on Instagram.

Days later, she captured a shirtless Cruz baring his tattoos as he cuddled his parents’ dogs, Simba and Fig.

The songwriter seems to have been accepted into the Beckham clan despite online chatter around her 10-year age gap with Cruz.

Jackie joined Cruz in September in supporting Victoria at her fashion show during Paris Fashion Week.

She was spotted numerous times with the Beckhams during Fashion Week and even wore one of Victoria’s chic dresses to her runway show.

Following the catwalk presentation, she took to Instagram to gush: ‘The most beautiful show and the most beautiful dress. Congratulations @victoriabeckham.’

He has been releasing music since 2016 and is now said to be launching a career.

He has reportedly collaborated with Ed Frewett, known for working with Little Mix and One Direction, and producer Fred Ball, who has collaborated with Beyoncé and Rihanna.
