  • Kanye West’s chilling five word comment to Bianca Censori before she stripped

    Kanye West’s chilling five word comment to Bianca Censori before she stripped

    Kanye West and Bianca Censori caused shockwaves at the 2025 Grammy Awards when Bianca walked the red carpet in a totally see-through dress

    Kanye West and Bianca Censori shocked the world on Sunday night after the model and designer arrived at the 2025 Grammy Awards in a totally sheer dress to expose her nude body underneath.

    Troubled rapper Kanye, 47, was heard whispering to his partner which prompted her to immediately remove her fur coat and reveal she’d arrived at the ceremony in a nude mesh dress without underwear.

    Bianca, 30, slowly dropped her cover-up to flash her bare bum before spinning around to give stunned press photographers the full glimpse of her naked body.

    The stunt went down so badly that there were reports the couple had been ‘escorted out’ of the music awards. While concerned fans watching the live stream from home also demanded the couple be reprimanded for their actions as they branded them ‘creepy and disturbing.’

    A lipreader has now revealed their bizarre interaction that took place before Bianca – who kept a straight-face throughout – dropped her coat.

    The pair were seen talking on the red carpet in a now viral video posted to TikTok. According to Nicola Hickling, the founder and lead analyst at LipReader, West was telling his wife to take off her coat and reveal all.

    According to Hickling, Kanye gave his wife five words of praise before things took a turn. “You’re making a scene now,” Kanye tells Bianca as the photographers begin to snap their arrival. Bianca then silently nods her head.

    Kanye continues to encourage her: “Make a scene, I’ll say it’ll make so much sense.” Bianca again nods her head in agreement. Then Kanye tells her: “Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you.”

    “Alright let’s go,” Bianca tells him, according to the lip reading expert. Australian designer Bianca then drops her coat to reveal her naked body underneath.

According to California Penal Code 314(1), indecent exposure is defined as a person “expoising his or her naked body or genitals in front of anyone who could be annoyed or offended by it.” It also stipulates that the act must be “willful and lewd” to be considered a crime. To be found guilty, a person must “intentionally expose your genitals or naked body; expose yourself in front of someone who might be offended or annoyed by it; intend to direct attention to yourself; and intend to sexually gratify yourself or offend someone else when you do it.”

    It wasn’t just the law that the pair were offending, social media was set alight with viewers’ stunned reaction to Bianca’s risqué get-up as the furore unfolded in real time on the live stream. One tweeter remarked: “Kanye and that lady should be arrested for that stunt on the red carpet…… #GRAMMYs.”

    Another shared their exasperation at the nudity: “Every single time i have seen Kanye’s wife naked was against my will,” while a third quipped: “Kanye’s wife is fully naked…. does this event not have a dress code…? #GRAMMYs.”

    Another enraged user slammed the pair, writing: “Kanye West and Bianca Censori at Grammys. Completely Disgusting. #Grammys #Kanye.”

    Other fans were spotted the moment a young child was seen leaning in from the side of the red carpet to get a glimpse of Bianca’s outfit. One user said: “the fact that it’s okay for Bianca Censori and Kanye to do that in front of the child behind them in line….wow.”

    The shocking red carpet scenes overshadowed the night where Beyonce made Grammy’s history by winning the top prize of album of the year, with the gong evading her four times. While performances came from many of the nominees, including stars such as Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, Billie Eilish, Janelle Monáe, Stevie Wonder, Lady Gaga, Chris Martin, Doechii, and Sabrina Carpenter.

    The Los Angeles wildfires had put the likelihood of the event taking place up in the air. However, California governor Gavin Newsom gave the go ahead. The show adopted a reimagined format, including a toned-down red carpet – but that didn’t stop Kanye and Bianca.

    While the duo became the talk of the ceremony, they did not stick around long. Just minutes after walking the red carpet at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, the two then got into their car and left.

    On the ride out, Kanye took to social media to post about the stunt. “Custom Courture Grammy dress for the most beautiful woman ever,” Kanye captioned an image of Bianca’s dress on Instagram shortly after their Grammys appearance, adding “My best friend. My wife.”

    Bianca also doubled down on the stunt – despite many fans expressing their concern – as she also returned to Instagram to share more nude snaps with Kanye at home. Bianca had deactivated her social media account in October amid reports she and Kanye had split and were headed toward divorce. However she returned to the site for the first time three months to share some snaps with the musician on Grammy night.

    Following their swift exit, in the small hours of Monday morning Kanye and Bianca resurfaced to attend a wild Grammys afterparty. The pair continued their racy antics as they were spotted licking and groping each other on the dancefloor.

    For her re-appearance, Biance switched into a mesh thong bodysuit, which did little to cover up her curves. Kanye appeared to get very handsy with his wife as he was spotted grabbing at her bum as they danced.

    Kanye had been invited to the prestigious music event, after stepping back from the mainstream limelight in recent years, after being nominated in the category of Best Rap Song for his track Carnival.

    Some fans had questioned if Kanye’s red carpet antics were an attempt to steal attention away from rival Kendrick Lamar. Kanye showed up to the bash despite losing out to Lamar for Best Rap Song – but stole all the headlines instead.

    According to body language expert Judi James, Kanye acted like his wife’s ‘bodyguard’ as he watched over her and gave orders throughout their red carpet stunt.

    Judi said: “Presumably this was sold to Bianca as her moment of peak fame, when she finally gets her world headlines for a totally nude effect look on the red carpet after walking the streets in various countries with Kanye in a series of barely-covered body suits,” Judi explains when analysing the X-rated images of Kanye and Bianca. “With other stars consistently copying her sheer bodysuits it could have been a ‘who dares wins’ moment when she raised the ‘shock’ bar so high that she left other female stars looking like cowards.”

    She continues: “Kanye adopted a variety of poses here, some like a bodyguard, with his legs splayed and his hands folded in front of his torso; one that defined them as a couple, with his arm around her back and one where he retreated altogether to allow her the solo moment she might have craved, and there was one where he just gazed down at her as though she were a doll he’d brought along.”

    Looking at Bianca in particular, Judi notes: “Bianca’s body language suggested changes too, from the more confident, aloof, runway model look as she first posed in the huge fur coat, to the moment she turned to bare all to the cameras. Her eye expression in particular changed to a wider-eye look that suggested her initial bravado might have secretly evaporated.

    “It became a less confident and more fearful look and her poses slipped from her usual very adept model moves to a more awkward look. Her hands went from behind her back to some less than relaxed-looking placings on her hips and she gave the impression that she was more comfortable teasing the cameras while wrapped in the huge coat. Kanye seems to view a near naked Bianca as his professional achievement, standing watching and muttering to her as she unveils as though this is his award-worthy success.”

    Kim first filed for divorce in 2021, completing their split in November 2022
    Kanye and Bianca got together following the rapper’s split from Kim Kardashian in 2021. Bianca had previously worked as an employee of the musician.

    Biance was born in Melbourne, one of three daughters born to Alexandra and Elia “Leo” Censori. Her paternal grandparents, native of Giulianova, Italy, immigrated to Australia with their five children, including Elia in 1960.

    Censori has a bachelor’s and master’s degree in architecture from the University of Melbourne. Accomplished in her field, Bianca created the Nylons Jewellery brand after graduating from high school.

    After meeting Kanye, Bianca was hired to be Head of Architecture at his Yeezy brand. Their working relationship blossomed before Kanye professed his love for her publicly with the release of Censori Overload – a song inspired by Bianca in 2022.

    Months after Kanye’s divorce from Kim was finalised, he legally married Bianca in December 2022. Kanye and Bianca soon became renowned for their various attention-stealing stunts – with Bianca becoming the star’s ‘muse’ and parading around in outfits he had created.

    Their biggest scandal came in 2023, when the pair were investigated by police in Italy over “acts contrary to public decency.” The duo were seen cavorting in Venice – Kanye with his pants pulled down and Bianca with her head in his lap – on board a boat in broad daylight.

    The scenes caused mass outrage with locals crying for the pair to be permanently banned from the historic city and to face arrest.

    Nevertheless, the displays continued. Kanye marked Bianca’s 29th birthday in January 2024 by declaring it would be the year she would wear ‘no pants.’

    He posted: “Happy birthday to the most beautiful super bad iconic muse inspirational talented artist masters degree in architecture 140 IQ loving by my side everyday when half the world turned their backs on me and the most amazing step mom to our children I love you so much thank you for sharing your life with me.”

  • Deal or No Deal contestant left in tears after taking home biggest win ever

    Deal or No Deal contestant left in tears after taking home biggest win ever

    Deal or No Deal viewers were left gobsmacked when paralegal Nay Nay took home one of the biggest wins in the ITV show’s history during Monday afternoon’s episode

    Deal or No Deal fans have hailed Monday’s episode as one of the best in history after one particular contestant took home the highest prize so far.

    Today’s episode saw paralegal Nay Nay take part in the ITV gameshow, hosted by Stephen Mulhern. The optimistic contestant announced at the start of the episode that she was certain that her box contained a large amount of money, saying: “What’s meant to be will be.”

    Throughout the episode, Nay Nay made her way through all of the blue boxes, leaving her with just larger amounts left to be open. “I’ve never seen anything like this,” Stephen told her after being left with amounts like £20,000, £35,000 and £100,000.

    Nay Nay brought her grandmother to the show, who tried to convince her to take the banker’s offers. She was offered large sums by the banker, with Stephen saying: “He’s saying this is a remarkable game. Do not get caught up in the moment – listen to your grandma and she will know the correct answer now,” Stephen said while speaking to the banker. “He’s willing to buy your box now for £51,700.”

    However, Nay Nay decided to stay true to her own box and turned down the offer. Soon, she was left with just two boxes of £100,000 and £75,000 – with the banker giving her the highest offer in Deal or No Deal history on ITV. Stephen told her: “This is the highest offer we have ever had so full credit to you – £82,700,” Stephen said. “Deal or no deal?” To which Nay Nay said: “Thank you Mr. Banker, but it’s no deal.”

    Left with just her own box, Nay Nay opened it to find £75,000 – the highest amount won on Deal or No Deal so far. Viewers took to social media to give their thoughts on the episode, with one writing: “Whatever happens, she will go down in history as the person to get this far with those two boxes #DealOrNoDeal.”

    Another said: “What an episode!! This show needs a BAFTA after that #DealOrNoDeal.” Meanwhile, one other viewer wrote: “Well done to this young lady, she is a joy #DealorNoDeal.”

  • Grammy Awards most controversial moments – Bianca Censori goes nude to Taylor Swift snub

    Grammy Awards most controversial moments – Bianca Censori goes nude to Taylor Swift snub

    The 2025 Grammy Awards were a night to remember as history was made, outfit choices left little to the imagination, and a huge sum of money was raised to help those affected by LA wildfires

    The Grammy Awards 2025 didn’t disappoint as Beyonce made history and Kanye West and Bianca Censori caused controversy.

    The 67th annual ceremony celebrated the best of the year’s music – but there was controversy from the get-go. Even before the ceremony began, the main talking point was locked in thanks to Bianca Censori’s revealing outfit. Kanye West’s wife made a bold statement on the red carpet. Dropping a black robe, she revealed a see-through dress in which she left little to the imagination.

    Fans were fuming online at her look, which could have even landed her in trouble with the law. According to California Penal Code 314(1), indecent exposure is defined as “when a person exposes his or her naked body or genitals in front of anyone who could be annoyed or offended by it. And one fan online jibed: “Every single time i have seen Kanye’s wife naked was against my will.”

    Kanye and Bianca didn’t hang around long, however. They were seen making their exit before the awards started. It’s claimed by a lip reader that Ye could have been the architect behind the daring display too. Lip reader Nicola Hickling offered insights from a clip of the couple, interpreting Kanye’s words to his wife. She claimed Ye said: “You’re making a scene now,” which Bianca acknowledged with a nod.

    Inside the ceremony, host Trevor Noah – who was taking on the duty for the fifth year in a row – wasted no time in taking aim at new US president Donald Trump. The comedian jibed in his opening monologue: “I don’t know if you noticed there’s been a few changes in Washington. So I’m going to enjoy tonight, because it’s maybe my last time I get to host anything in this country.”

    Then, as the stars were awarded their gongs, Chappell Roan was named Best New Artist and used her acceptance speech to deliver a powerful message to the industry and record labels. The star demanded that “labels and the industry profiting millions of dollars off artists would offer a liveable wage and healthcare, especially to developing artists”.

    And there were tears throughout the show from fans and celebs alike. As Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga performed an emotional rendition of California Dreamin’ as tribute to the LA wildfire victims, fans shared their feelings online. On Twitter/X, one user said: “I’d like to thank the #GRAMMYs for bringing me to tears with all the people who lost their home in LA as if I didn’t already feel so bad for them!”

    The tears didn’t stop there. As the awards paid respect to those who are no longer with us, the In Memoriam section began with a touching nod to Liam Payne. The 31-year-old died in October last year and fans were moved to tears by the moment on the big screen. Alongside music from Coldplay star Chris Martin, Liam was seen posing in front of a graffiti wall and performing onstage during One Direction’s stadium tours.

    One user online sobbed: “Not me starting to bawl my eyes out when Liam pops up on the Grammys. Miss you Payno.”

    With other sweet segments, including Quincy Jones being honoured with the help of his Fresh Prince of Bel Air star member Will Smith, the awards kept coming.

    Despite leading the nominations with six nods-including Album of the Year for “The Tortured Poets Department” and Record of the Year for “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone, Taylor Swift left the ceremony empty-handed. The Album of the Year honor went to Beyoncé for “Cowboy Carter,” marking her first win in this category after four previous losses.

    In a surprising twist, Taylor took to the stage to present the Best Country Album award to Beyoncé. Reflecting on her own roots in country music, she remarked: “Hi, they say you never forget where you came from and I will never forget standing here, right on this spot, almost exactly 15 years ago accepting the Grammy Award for best country album.” The two superstars then shared a heartfelt embrace.

    Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar was awarded song of the year and fans were quick to point out one person’s reaction to the accolade. Diana Ross had been tasked with presenting the award and seemed shocked by the reveal when opening the envelope to reveal Not Like Us as the winner

    Fans on X loved her apparent reaction, with one saying the star had thrown “shade” at the rapper. They penned on the platform: “Did Diana Ross just throw shade with that ahh before she said Kendrick Lamar???? #GRAMMYs #SongOfTheYear” And a third shared their delight by quoting: “The Grammy goes to…. *ahh* Kendrick Lamar” – Diana Ross”

    All that was left to bring the night to a close was to announce the winner of Album of the Year. History was made as Beyonce finally took home the accolade for Cowboy Carter. However, her win wasn’t widely cheered with fans of Billie Eilish claiming the wrong person had won.

    The award was presented by members of the Los Angeles County Fire Department. They were treated to a standing ovation by those in attendance as they were welcomed to the stage to present the awards.

    Throughout the show, host Trevor Noah kept pleading with viewers to donate where possible to help those affected by the wildfires in Los Angeles. At one point in the show he praised those at home for raising $7million. The final total wasn’t revealed, with those in the audience also donating.

    Coleen Nolan’s Loose Women return confirmed after sister Linda’s death

    On Monday’s instalment of Loose Women, the panel confirmed when ITV viewers can expect to see Coleen Nolan back on screen.

    Loose Women have announced when ITV viewers will see Coleen Nolan back on the panel. The 59-year-old hasn’t been seen on the show since her sister Linda Nolan died in mid-January.

    During Monday’s show, Charlene White said: “Before we go ahead, we want to send our love to Coleen and all of her family after her sister’s service over the weekend.

    “For those of you who are wondering when Col will be back, she’ll be with us again tomorrow. We love you and can’t wait to see you!”

    The news earned a huge round of applause from the audience, who were thrilled that Coleen would be back on the panel soon.

    Coleen’s sister Linda was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and was later given the all-clear in 2011. Sadly, a year later, she was told the disease was back as tumours were discovered in her hip bone and pelvis.

    It was later revealed she had been diagnosed with incurable secondary breast cancer, with Linda tragically sharing in 2023 that it had moved to her brain.

    On January 15, it was announced Linda had died at the age of 65, surrounded by her family. Speaking about her death the following day on Loose Women, Christine Lampard was highly emotional.

    After reading a statement, she said, “We’ve been talking about Linda for so long with Coleen, and I know it was an incredibly tough time for the family, but you’re just never prepared.”

    Her co-star Nadia Sawalha added: “Nothing prepares because there is a moment when the light goes out, and when the light goes out, that is the most awful shock. They’ve been through so much as a family, sending all our love.”

    Members of the public were also seen lining the streets with a woman who lived locally providing refreshments to those paying their respects.

    Speaking about the service on Good Morning Britain, Linda’s sister Anne said: “She’s going to be missed such a lot. She was a forceful character. She was a big, big character in our family and in lots of people’s lives. I realised that now, she was amazing.”

    Charlene White defies Loose Women director as entire panel burst into tears

    Loose Women’s Charlene White left her fellow stars in floods of tears during Monday’s show as she paid tribute to her late best friend Darrell, ignoring producers to do so

    Charlene White has tearfully opened up about her late friend Darrell on Loose Women, revealing that she powered through with a tribute to him on the show despite straying from the show’s plan.

    Charlene’s close friend Darrell passed away last week after suffering with Sarcoma cancer – a rare type of tumour that develops in bone and connective tissue.

    Speaking on Loose Women, Charlene revealed that while she could hear a producer in her ear saying that she wasn’t sticking to the running order, she wanted to send a message to Darrell’s wife Amy before the ad break.

    “Straight into and I know the director is going to go, ‘That’s not what we planned Charlene!’ I don’t care,” she said. “I know that Darrell’s wife is watching – I love you lots. I know that we’ll get through this together,” she said. “As a family, as friends, as everything because sometimes friend loss can feel like family loss because they are your family.”

    She then revealed that while heading into the break, the show would play the speech Darrell gave when receiving the Inspiration Award at Sarcoma UK’s Shining Star Awards. “He gave an incredible speech where he talked about what is important in the world,” Charlene said. “Going into the break, have a listen to him now.”

    The programme then played a clip of Darrell’s speech: “I want people to realise yes Sarcoma is a bad thing, it can be really damaging. Lots of things can be too. When you wake up, think about the people that you really love and love spending time with…It’s all about people and love.”

    Speaking earlier in the programme, Charlene opened up about losing Darrell – who was diagnosed with Sarcoma on his 40th birthday. “He popped round to my house for his birthday lunch and he told me all about it,” she said. “He fought through it for four and a half years, I’m incredibly proud of him.”

    Charlene speaking about her grief quickly set off her fellow Loose Women stars, with Judi Love and Kelly Brook wiping away tears as they spoke about their own experiences with the deaths of loved ones.

    After speaking about the death of her dad from cancer, Kelly told Charlene: “Whenever anyone goes through it, and I’m so sorry for your loss, it makes me cry because I know what it is and I have so much empathy. It’s the worst and all you can do is be there. So know that we all know what you’re going through.

    Last week, Charlene revealed on social media that her heart had “broken into a million pieces” following Darrell’s death. “There will be many of you who will aware of me talking about one of my oldest and best friends Darrell @djoptic and his mission to beat the enemy which is Sarcoma cancer,” she wrote.

    “In the early hours of Saturday morning, four and a half years after he was diagnosed, after a week of saying goodbyes to those he loved, sharing stories and banter, he took his final breath surrounded by his wonderful wife @mrsamymcdonald and children Maya and Theo.”

    The TV personality went on to say: “He has been my brother since we met at 16 years old, I was the best man at his wedding, and god-mother to his eldest. The nonsense our little crew would get up to was hilarious back in the day, he was there for every milestone. My heart is broken into a million pieces.”

    Bruce Willis’ daughter says Hollywood icon is ‘doing great’ amid dementia diagnosis

    Hollywood icon Bruce Willis is ‘doing great’ according to his daughter Rumer who shared an update on her famous dad during an appearance on ITV’s Loose Women

    Rumer Willis says Bruce Willis is “doing great” amid the LA wildfires and his ongoing battle with dementia.

    The 36-year-old actress is the daughter of Hollywood star Bruce – who was diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) – a degenerative disease, which causes behavioural changes and communication difficulties – and his ex-wife Demi Moore, and revealed that the family are just trying to “rally around each other” as the disaster has been unfolding across California.

    Speaking on UK TV show ‘Loose Women’, she explained: “He’s doing great. I think, obviously as many people in California, the thing we’re all kind of the most scared, dealing with is just fires and wanting to make sure everything is okay. Because my family, we’re all so close, I think what’s so beautiful is the way that we rally around each other, [it’s] so lovely, because we really are a unit.”

    The ‘House Bunny’ star – who has 21-month-old Louetta with former partner Derek Richard Thomas – noted that being a mother has improved her confidence and admitted that she is “grateful” for how her parents emphasised the importance of family to her even when they decided to go their separate ways when she was growing up.

    She said: “I feel like I am my most grounded, intuitive, connected self. What I am thinking about when it comes to my daughter, I noticed sometimes in other decisions in my life, I can be a little anxious or indecisive or not know what to do. I find if I really listen to myself when it’s about her, I feel really grounded and quiet – and I’m able to make really definitive decisions that I feel really helped me with that confidence.

    “I think the thing I’m most grateful for is that even when they split up, they created such a beautiful foundation of prioritising my sisters and I, that I never felt like I had to choose or like, they never played against each other.

    “We were a family, and we still are very much a family no matter what… And not only did I feel like that has set me up in my life to have such a beautiful foundation of my own family, but now, as I’m working through co-parenting as well, I feel deep gratitude for the example they’ve set.”

    Kelly Brook leaves Loose Women co-stars stunned after Emma Bunton swipe

    Kelly Brook revealed that she once walked out of an Emma Bunton concert after just half an hour and revealed the unexpected reason behind her decision

    Kelly Brook left her Loose Women co-stars completely gobsmacked after admitting she walked out of Emma Bunton’s Christmas show.

    On Monday’s episode of the hit ITV daytime show, Kelly joined Charlene White, Brenda Edwards and Judi Love in the studio, where the conversation quickly turned to a jaw-dropping revelation. Kicking things off by discussing the recent phenomenon of theatre-goers leaving productions midway through to avoid ‘spoilers’ before the film adaptation is released. With Wicked receiving ten Oscar nominations, it seems some fans are ditching the West End show to keep the big-screen experience fresh.

    But as the debate raged on, Kelly dropped a bombshell of her own. “I do have a confession…” she admitted, before dropping her Emma Bunton-shaped secret. “I love going to the theatre, I’ve seen so many West End shows, musicals, all sorts… But I do need to apologise to Emma Bunton – she invited me to her Christmas show at the Royal Albert Hall.”

    Attempting to justify her actions, Kelly explained: “I had a puppy that was six months old, and about half an hour into the show… I got immense anxiety that this little puppy was going to absolutely wreck my house. Eat everything! I just said to my husband, ‘I’m not enjoying the show.’ It was nothing to do with Emma – Emma is fantastic…”

    Judi, clearly in disbelief, asked: “Your mind was somewhere else?” To which Kelly nodded. “My mind was somewhere else. I just could not relax.” Charlene pressed for more details. “So, you lasted like three songs?”

    Kelly, appearing embarrassed, admitted she and her husband made a sneaky exit. “I said, ‘Let’s just pretend we’re going to the bar…’ and we slipped out and left the show. We went home. The puppy was fine. It was all in my head! And now, any time I’ve got a dog, I cannot see a show.”

    Adding insult to injury, Judi demanded to know where Kelly had been sitting. When she revealed she had front-row seats, the panel absolutely lost it. Charlene, still in shock, urged her to make amends. “Do you want to apologise to Emma again?”

    Turning directly to the camera, Kelly made her plea: “Emma, I would love to come back to your show again if you would kindly invite me. I know, I know, it was terrible! But the puppy was six months old!”

    Elsewhere on the show, emotions ran high as the panel shared personal heartbreaks in a deeply emotional discussion about grief and how to talk to children about death.

    Charlene broke down in tears as she opened up about losing her best friend, while Judi became visibly emotional speaking about her late mum. Kelly also welled up as she reflected on the loss of her father.

  • Ruth Langsford banks major paydays and splashes cash after Eamonn Holmes split

    Ruth Langsford banks major paydays and splashes cash after Eamonn Holmes split

    This Morning’s Ruth Langsford has been allowing herself very generous dividends from her holding company as friends say her ‘sass is back’ after Eamonn Holmes split

    Ruth Langsford appears to be enjoying her life as a single woman, if her finances are any indication.

    The This Morning star and her ex Eamonn Holmes, 65, announced their shock split in May, and Eamonn has quickly moved on with new girlfriend Katie Alexander, 42. The couple shares a son, and after 14 years of marriage Ruth, 64, is readjusting to living solo

    Ruth is the sole director of company Hey Ho Ltd, which she set up in 2013 and is bolstered by money from her multiple jobs, such as Loose Women appearances and Tesco ads. According documents, Ruth took out almost £1 million from the firm last year, and £2.3 million in 2023.

    It’s reported that according to accounts for the company, from May 2023 to the end of May 2024, Ruth took £770,000 of liquid cash from Hey Ho Ltd, and also spent over £12,000 on “furniture,” suggesting she may have done a bit of spring cleaning and rejuvenation of her home after splitting from Eamonn.

    Despite the big spending and huge cash paydays, however, there’s plenty more in the pot, with cash and assets reportedly valuing over £3 million, according to The Sun.

    Sources close to Ruth have suggested that she’s making the most of being a single woman after the initial struggle, and is using her time to enjoy being with friends. “Ruth’s sass is definitely back. She’s ready for exciting new adventures and a new man – if and when it’s on her terms – but for now, she’s not overly fussed about jumping into anyone’s bed but her own,” an insider said back in December. Girls’ nights out and piña coladas are filling the void. Her friends are like her armour and they give great advice.”

    “Eamonn is just angry and jealous – he’s brought this all on himself but Ruth is keeping dignified,” they added to Closer.

    Ruth gave an interview of her own this month after keeping fairly private about her split, and added that she’s up for doing more things for herself and with her loved ones, particularly travel.

    Eamonn has enjoyed a holiday with his new partner Katie, and Ruth made it clear that she’s not one to be left behind – and doesn’t need a partner in order to have a good time.

    The star said that she’s planning some trips overseas, including considering a visit to Thailand to see her best friend from school. Another option may be to go on a girls trip abroad to celebrate turning 65.

    Overall, she summarised being able to be free in her choices, saying: “As for the future, there is a certain feeling of liberation but I’m definitely not planning my next 10 years in finite detail!”

  • Kate Middleton’s decision over Prince George’s new school will ‘come down to money’ – expert

    Kate Middleton’s decision over Prince George’s new school will ‘come down to money’ – expert

    A royal expert has claimed that when it comes to finding a new school for Prince George, there is one major factor that will be a crucial consideration for Prince William and Princess Kate

    Prince George will soon be due to move up to secondary school, and there is one major factor that will be crucial to the decision made by Prince William and Princess Kate, a royal expert has claimed.

    There has been much speculation about where the future King will be enrolled for his secondary education after he leaves Lambrook School – which only caters to pupils up to the age of 13. Both his sister, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, attend the same school, which is close to the Wales family residence of Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Home Park.

    Princess Kate was reported to have visited two elite London day schools in December: University College School, in Hampstead, and the nearby Highgate School. If the purpose of her visit was to scout out possible future schools for George, 11, then the option of a day school would be a deviation from what both William and Kate experienced themselves.

    William attended the prestigious Eton College in Windsor, alongside his younger brother Prince Harry, whilst Kate boarded at Marlborough College after some tumultuous years at Downe House where she was reportedly bullied as a day girl.

    One royal expert – Editor in Chief of Majesty magazine, Ingrid Seward – has claimed that there will be one major issue that will likely be a deciding for Kate and William when it comes time to enrol George in his next school.

    Speaking to Fabulous magazine, the expert explained that security costs will be something the Prince and Princess of Wales keep in mind as they make their final choice.

    “I think he will probably go to a co-ed where all three of them can be educated together, because also that cuts hugely down the security bill,” the expert said.

    “I think Kate and William are very conscious of how much it costs the taxpayer to guard them – guard not being the exact word – but to kind of give them the security which they absolutely have to have.

    “To have three different schools in three different parts of the country, I think would be very difficult.”

    The expert also said that in her view, the coeducational boarding school Marlborough College, which Kate and her siblings attended, is likely the couple’s top choice. Fees at Marlborough currently come in at an eye-watering £19,714.20 each term – £59.142.60 a year.

    The expert added, “He’s had a lot of formality in his young life, and I think they would probably want him to be certainly co-ed, I would think, and just somewhere where he’s free.”

    Other front runners for George’s secondary school are reported to be Oundle School in Northamptonshire and St. Edward’s School in North Oxford – also known as ‘Teddie’s’.

  • Prince Harry’s pal makes cryptic comment about Duke returning to UK

    Prince Harry’s pal makes cryptic comment about Duke returning to UK

    Prince Harry is currently embroiled in a legal battle over his security arrangements when in the UK – and one expert believes the fight and one pal’s comments about it give a glimpse into his future plans

    Prince Harry may have set up home in California with Meghan Markle – but speculation persists about his future and spending time in the UK.

    While Meghan and their children have not visited Harry’s homeland in almost three years, the Duke of Sussex has made several fleeting visits for charity appearances and family events, including the memorial of his late uncle, Lord Robert Fellowes. Harry has said he cannot bring his wife and children to the UK as it does not deem it safe as they are no longer entitled to automatic police protection when in the country – and the Duke is currently embroiled in a legal battle to get this reinstated.

    Recently, a pal of Harry’s told Hello magazine that when it comes to the case, Harry’s goal is ‘simple’ adding: “He wants to ensure the safety of himself and his family while in the UK so his children can know his home country and so he can help his patronages and their important work.”

    And speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, royal correspondent Bronte Coy says the cryptic comment gives a glimpse into Harry’s future plans in the UK. She explained: “A lot of things have changed in the past five years and it’s entirely possible that, with some reflection, there’s a big part of him wondering if there’s a way to bring the UK back into his life.”

    She added: “When they left, they left in such a passionate blaze of glory – they were so disheartened and bruised by the situation they’d had back here.

    “With all these things, once the dust settles and the emotion gets taken out of it a bit, the reality is he loves his home country – he talked about it in his memoir. After a few years, he probably just very much misses it. After a few years, he probably just very much misses it.”

    It was previously reported the security issue has caused a deepening of his estrangement from his father the King, with a source telling PEOPLE: “Harry is frightened and feels the only person who can do anything about it is his father.” However, the publication points out that a palace source has explained Harry’s security situation is not in the hands of the King.

    Harry took legal action over the February 2020 decision by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) which ruled he would no longer be given the “same degree” of publicly-funded protection when in the country. Ravec’s decision came as a result of a change in the duke’s ‘status’ after he stopped being a “full-time working member of the royal family “, a judge was told.

    During a hearing at the High Court, it was told that Harry believes his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet cannot “feel at home” in the UK if it is “not possible to keep them safe” there. At a previous hearing in the case, in a written statement, Harry said: “It was with great sadness for both of us that my wife and I felt forced to step back from this role and leave the country in 2020. The UK is my home.

    “The UK is central to the heritage of my children and a place I want them to feel at home, as much as where they live at the moment in the United States. That cannot happen if it’s not possible to keep them safe when they are on UK soil. I cannot put my wife in danger like that and, given my experiences in life, I am reluctant to unnecessarily put myself in harm’s way too.”
