The British Royal Family remains calm about the health of Kate Middleton. The Princess had previously announced that she had completed her chemotherapy treatment, which lifted the spirits of the entire United Kingdom.

Although the worst seems to be over, it doesn’t mean that Middleton’s hospital visits are finished.

This week, the Princess of Wales is scheduled to return to the hospital. Although she is feeling better than expected, Middleton must continue undergoing routine tests to ensure that her illness does not unexpectedly return.

Concha Calleja revealed on ‘Fiesta’, Telecinco’s weekend show, the next steps the Princess must follow.

Why Kate Middleton Needs to Return to Hospital
“She needs to undergo some tests. If the cancer has gone into remission, she will have to undergo a minor procedure later on,” explained the writer regarding Kate Middleton’s potential outcomes.

“Everything is fine for now. However, if the tests show that the treatments were not sufficient, a new chemotherapy session will be scheduled

 

Calleja did not only speak about the future of the Princess of Wales; she also shared her opinion that a change of crown in the British Royal Family may be closer than ever.

Apparently, the health condition of King Charles III is more critical than it seems, and Prince William is paying closer attention to the possibility of ascending the throne sooner than he had anticipated.

“The change of crown is going to be accelerated. This also involves Harry, as he is returning to Royal Family duties, although there won’t be an official announcement,” Calleja explained, adding that the condition for this to happen would be that Meghan Markle does not return.

James Middleton’s baby son Inigo is inheriting a pint-sized royal wardrobe from his cousins Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis!

Kate Middleton’s younger brother made the sweet revelation in his new memoir, Meet Ella: The Dog Who Saved My Life, out Sept. 24 — one of many anecdotes about how his “close-knit family” is there for one another. James, 37, and his wife Alizée Thevenet welcomed their first child in October 2023, and he reflected in his memoir about how his sisters Princess Kate and Pippa passed along clothes their children had previously worn when he introduced them to their new nephew.

“My sisters both have huge grins on their faces. It takes them back to the days when their firstborns were as tiny as their new nephew. ‘Welcome to parenthood,’ they say,” James wrote in Meet Ella, exclusively excerpted by PEOPLE.

We are an affectionate and close-knit family and there are lots of hugs and laughter. Catherine and Pippa bring two big suitcases of hand-me-down clothes, so Inigo’s cupboards are full of sweet little outfits his cousins — even the girls — have worn,” he wrote.

Princess Kate and Prince William are parents to George, 11, Charlotte, 9, and Louis, 6, while Pippa and her husband James Matthews share son Arthur, 5, and daughters Grace, 3, and Rose, 2.

James wrote that while the outfits seemed “enormous” for the baby, he didn’t realize that Inigo would quickly grow and “fit them in a blink.”

“We’re deluged with advice from my sisters, but we muddle through in our own way, sometimes getting things right, sometimes wrong,” he wrote in Meet Ella about how he and Alizée navigated the early days of new parenthood.

Speaking to Hello! for a cover story published on Sept. 23, the entrepreneur and mental health advocate said that the hand-me-downs for Inigo double as a touchstone for his sisters to remember when their children were younger.

“They are milestones, because [my sisters] remember when their child was wearing something, and how old they were — it takes them back,” James told the outlet. “It’s been a lovely thing for them.”

Practical parents Kate and William, both 42, have been known to dress their children in hand-me-downs from one another, which British childrenswear designer Rachel Riley previously told PEOPLE she appreciated.

“They love traditional clothes, and it’s lovely to see them wearing things again and again,” said Riley, whose designs have been worn by the Wales kids.

In Meet Ella: The Dog Who Saved My Life, James reflected on how his beloved dog Ella helped him survive his darkest moments of depression, and how the cocker spaniel was by his side during life’s pivotal events, from his sister’s royal wedding to Prince William and serendipitously introducing his family to Alizée.

Their son Inigo was born just months after Ella died in January 2023, and James told PEOPLE that reflecting for the memoir was an emotional process.

“It took me on a journey,” James said. “I hope that my son is able to learn about his own mental health way before I did so that he doesn’t have to go through some of the very painful moments that I went through.”

DIANA’s former bodyguard spoke on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show about the role the late Princess of Wales could’ve played in getting her sons to reconcile.

Ken, who is a former Metropolitan police officer, looked after the young royal family from 1986 until 1993 before Princess Diana’s death four years later.

The Sun’s Royal Editor, Matt Wilkinson asked Ken: “Is it impossible to say, but how do you think Diana would feel knowing these two previously close brothers are basically at war?”

Ken replied: “The sad thing is, Diana’s death in 1997, that was a traumatic experience certainly for them. They lose their mother so publicly.

“In Prince Harry’s particular case, as a 13, 14-year-old, he is, in a sense of duty, he has to walk behind his mother’s coffin to Westminster Abbey.

“Up until that point, even after that point they [Harry and William] remained good friends.”

The former royal employee continued: “To answer your question, how would Diana have influenced, or had any influence on resolving their issues in later life?

“What this turmoil needed or needs even now, is someone to convene and try and sort this out.

“It is never going to be sorted out publicly, it has to be sorted out privately.

“I think his father, the King, is desperate to resolve this issue because I think it’s very important for him,” he claimed.

“Coming back to how Diana would resolve that, because Diana knew William and Harry probably better than anybody else, [she] would have understood the problems, [she] would have seen the issues surrounding the complications with Harry and Meghan and all that that had with it at the time.”

Ken added: “In 2018, Harry’s marriage to Meghan was probably the greatest thing to ever happen to the Royal Family.

“Here we had a Prince marrying a woman of mixed race, a divorcee, and an American.

“And this was all supported by the Queen, by the establishment, and sadly it all went horribly wrong,” he opined.
Prince William was envious of Harry when they were kids because he was so popular and so much fun
“I think Diana, if she were alive, would have seen all the complications, the complexities of that, knowing how royalty works, [and] would have been a great motivator to try and resolve that issue – which I’m sure she would have done.”

Ken was then asked what Diana would’ve thought of Meghan, if “she would’ve been delighted by Meghan and welcomed Meghan” and whether “they would’ve been close”.

He revealed: “Diana would have loved it because it was risque anyway.

“The very fact her son was marrying a divorcee, an American, an actress/actor. This was all food for Diana’s discussion.

“Of course, she would have liked it,” he remarked.

“She always said the most important issues in my life are my children and for that reason would have supported them and been a great advisor.

“I do think one of her qualities was her humane touch and would have seen the problems that were likely to have come out of that marriage and where we are now with him [Harry] and his wife and family domiciled in the US.

Your Prince Harry and Meghan Markle questions answered

“Diana would have been a frequent visitor and would now to this day, in my view, even worked with her ex-husband the King to find a way to best resolve this issue.

“It can now not be dealt with in the media, it has to be dealt with privately,” Ken concluded.

It comes after The Sun’s Arthur Edwards revealed what he believes Harry’s “main problem” is with William that could be hindering a reconciliation.

The Royal photographer suggested Harry’s flying visit to the UK recently to see King Charles after the monarch’s cancer diagnosis was a tell-tale sign.

Arthur commented: “Notice that he came here to see the King but he didn’t go to see Prince William because William didn’t want to see him.

“That’s the main problem.

“It’s not Harry and his relationship with his father, it’s his relationship with his brother because his brother is going to be the next king.”

David Beckham and Victoria Beckham have a dreamy love story — and according to the soccer star, it began before they ever even crossed paths.

In 2008, David told Ellen DeGeneres he knew he wanted to marry Victoria after seeing the Spice Girls on TV. “I was in a hotel room with my best friend, who was my best man at my wedding,” he said. “I remember turning around — before I’d even met Victoria — and said, ‘I want to marry that one.’ “

The pair married in 1999 and now share four children: sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, as well as daughter Harper.

While the pair will be the first to say their longtime union is the result of a lot of hard work and commitment, Victoria has said, “love at first sight does exist.”

“It will happen to you in the Manchester United players’ lounge,” she wrote to her 18-year-old self in Vogue. “Although you will get a little drunk, so exact details are hazy.”

From moving countries to attending their eldest son’s wedding, here’s what to know about David and Victoria Beckham’s relationship.

Though the couple grew up within 15 minutes of each other in London, they didn’t actually meet until years later, when Victoria was Posh Spice of the Spice Girls and David was playing with Manchester United. David recounted the meeting on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “She came to a football match — soccer match — and I said hi from across the room and that was it,” he recalled. “I thought I’d missed my chance, and then a week later she turned up at another football match.”

Their second meeting was more involved, as David shared with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show. “We talked for about an hour in the players’ lounge and then she actually got the train up that day, so she wrote her number down on her train ticket, which I still have,” he revealed.

Victoria said she was taken by David’s family-oriented nature. “While the other football players stand at the bar drinking with their mates, you will see David standing aside with his family. (He’s not even in the first team at this stage — you are the famous one.),” she wrote to her younger self in Vogue. “And he has such a cute smile. You, too, are close to your family, and you will think how similar he feels to you.”

Two became three on March 4, 1999, when Brooklyn Joseph was born. In her 2001 autobiography Learning to Fly, Victoria addressed rumors that her firstborn was named for the city where he was conceived.

“It was when we were in Marbella [Spain] that we came up with the name Brooklyn. We already knew he was a boy and so I knew he could end up a footballer, so it had to be a name that was a bit blokey,” the author wrote. “I had always liked the name Brooke and then we suddenly thought about Brooklyn. I’d always liked it as a place — it’s very multi-cultural, very grounded. And it was only afterwards that I realized how appropriate it was because it was in New York that I found out I was pregnant.”

He also had plenty of praise for his wife and her accomplishments. “We recently did a Vogue front cover, which was all about Victoria’s 10 years in fashion,” David said. “The amount she’s achieved in such a short space of time with four beautiful young children … but obviously her business world, you know, to be on the front cover of Vogue, was a huge thing.”

You always liked to surprise people — especially David. Preserving that bit of mystique is always helpful after almost 22 years of marriage. (What anniversary are you celebrating now?).”

Holly Willoughby was left ‘hurt and betrayed’ by Phillip Schofield after his affair with a young runner on This Morning was exposed but has remained dignified throughout his explosive return

The telly world has seen some major dramas lately. This week, Philip Schofield made a stunning comeback on TV with his new three-part reality show Cast Away, after he quit his presenting gig on This Morning last May amid revelations of an extra-marital affair with a young runner, effectively exiling him from the glittering realm of showbiz.

Schofield’s outing on Channel 5 featured him roughing it in true Robinson Crusoe style, bearded and weather-beaten, as he faced the trials of survival on a deserted island near Madagascar for 10 days, evidently trying to salvage his tarnished reputation. But it wasn’t just about survival; during his time alone, he couldn’t resist firing some thinly-disguised barbs towards figures in the television industry, reports OK! .

It seems fair to assume one of these targets was none other than his old mate Holly Willoughby. Their once tight-knit partnership on This Morning ended up frosty following Philip’s infamous love scandal last year. They had been inseparable co-hosts for over a decade. Although, instead of hitting back publicly or causing a social media frenzy over Phil’s biting remarks, Holly has opted to stay admirably quiet during his attention-stealing return.

A source confides that Holly’ s approach to the furore surrounding her ex-colleague has always been to keep things “respectful as possible – even though she was the one left to ‘pick up the pieces and deal with the fallout”‘. They whisper, “She was very hurt and betrayed by him as she felt he had lied to her but she has never really slated him – so for him to make thinly-veiled attacks on his new show was a real low.”

“She didn’t deserve that and she thought that after all she has been through in the past 18 months, that he might be a bit more understanding. But it’s clear he sort of blames her for his downfall and that he’s still angry about it all – and Holly knew he wouldn’t be able to keep quiet.” They added, “She had been gearing up for what he was going to say and it’s not nice but she feels she’ll get the last laugh as the show hasn’t exactly been well-received and he is getting criticism for playing the victim and trying to get sympathy.”

Once inseparable pals who would even take holidays together and whose bleary-eyed, giggly stints on the This Morning couch after raucous nights at the National Television Awards became iconic, fast forward 16 months and it appears they’re no longer on speaking terms. Fast-forward 16 months, though, and the two haven’t been spotted together publicly since their final appearance on May 18 last year, amid whispers of a ‘feud’ and Holly’s apparent lack of interest in mending their relationship.

While she isn’t named explicitly, Phil mentioned in the three-part series, “I miss parts of being on TV, certainly. I miss most of it, if I’m honest. I miss most of it. But there are bits that I really, really, really don’t miss.” He took a swipe with the pointed comment: “You learn a lot about people. I don’t miss that. When you throw someone under a bus, you’ve got to have a really bloody good reason to do it.”

Highlighting the moment that caught everyone’s attention, Phil couldn’t resist making light of Holly’s on-air query post his departure: “If you’re okay, then we’re okay and I’m okay. Are you okay? ” as he shared laughs during a barbecue in his garden with wife Steph and their daughters Molly, 31, and Ruby, 28.

Phil dropped a dramatic hint that his exit from This Morning was not by choice, but rather he was pushed out, declaring emphatically: “It’s inconceivable that I would quit [any show that he is on].I don’t quit. I’m fired. But I never quit.” While fishing, some fans speculated he might be alluding to Holly once more with the remark: “People just went who I thought were my friends and they just went. And that’s like ‘what the hell?’.”

The impact of Phil’s new show , Cast Away, on his future career remains uncertain. On the flip side, Holly has a buzzing career, growing further since her own departure from This Morning last October, following the foiling of a terrifying plot that resulted in security guard Gavin Plumb being sentenced in July to at least 16 years’ imprisonment for planning to kidnap, assault, and kill the star.

She’s set to host a revival of the game show ‘You Bet!’ alongside her pal Stephen Mulhern, launch into a fresh series of Dancing On Ice come January, and dive into her adventure reality competition Bear Hunt with Bear Gryll s.

The latter, which will premiere on Netflix, could catapult Holly to international stardom. An insider revealed, “That show is set to make her a global star and Netflix have high hopes for it and are predicting it to be a success in both the UK and America as well as other countries.

“If it does, Holly will become a big international star, something Phil always dreamed of. By keeping quiet and letting Phil get slated for his new show, Holly feels it is the best kind of revenge, especially after what he has implied about her.”

Phillip Schofield’s mum had a very straightforward response when the This Morning presenter came out as gay in 2020. Phillip then laughed about it during an emotional interview on ITV

For Phillip Schofield, February 7 2020 was a momentous day for it was when he sat down with Holly Willoughby to talk about his recent announcement.

Just moments earlier, the former This Morning presenter had released a heartfelt message on social media in which he came out as gay. During his emotional appearance on the ITV show, Phillip broke down at the time after admitting that he could not have done it without the support of Holly, his wife Steph and their two daughters.

While he said he was proud of coming out, he was also “conscious of the hurt” he may have caused. It was also during the interview that Phillip explained to the presenters that he had broken the news to his mum, Pat.

Her straightforward response was to the point, but also touching in its own way. The dad-of-two had actually travelled down to Cornwall to tell his mum in person. “My mum has been on the phone all morning,” Phillip told Holly Willoughby during his emotional interview back in 2020. “I went down to see her in Cornwall. Phillip then broke the news to his mum, revealing “She said: ‘Oh ok, well I don’t care.’”

The presenter laughed as he recalled his mum’s simple yet loving response to his announcement. At the time, Phillip also praised his wife and daughters as they supported him through the difficult time.

In his statement, Phillip added: “Steph has been incredible – I love her so very much. She is the kindest soul I have ever met. My girls have been astonishing in their love, hugs and encouraging words of comfort. Both mine and Steph’s entire families have stunned me with their love, instant acceptance and support. Of course they are worried about Steph, but I know they will scoop us both up. My friends are the best, especially Holly, who has been so kind and wise – and who has hugged me as I sobbed on her shoulder.

Phillip Schofield said they specifically choose the 7th February as the date for the interview (

Phillip added: “Our eternal thanks to the paramedics, Treliske A&E and Critical Care team who have been, in the past and this weekend, my mum’s and our angels. Your love and care has been our saviour.”

Holly Willoughby shared a photo of Kate Moss dressed as a witch on Instagram to wish her followers a ‘Happy Halloween’ – and the song she chose to accompany the post may be a nod to her former This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield

Holly Willoughby made a ‘Happy Halloween’ shoutout to her fans, stirring the pot with a possibly sly dig.

She posted a photo of Kate Moss decked out as a witch on the catwalk, playing Lana Del Rey’s Season of the Witch in the background. However, some people are speculating this may be a jab at her ex-This Morning co-host Phillip Schofield, who is rumoured to have nicknamed her a “witch”.

Adding more spirit to her Stories, Holly put up a Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air clip showcasing Carlton’s festive dance moves, signaling that she’s eager for Christmas to roll around. It has been suggested Phillip Schofield branded her a “witch” due to an incident when they both worked on This Morning, where he felt she didn’t back him.

The name allegedly stemmed from Phillip’s ‘unwise but not illegal’ affair with a younger colleague. A source disclosed to The Sun: “He dislikes Holly so much now he calls her ‘the witch’ when talking about her and sends the emoji to his mates if she comes up. He messaged Holly and told her: ‘You brought me down.’ He was furious and still is.”

Meanwhile, they say, “Holly isn’t batting an eyelid at this; it’s like she couldn’t care less,” highlighting a lack of concern from her end. “Phil is coming across as incredibly bitter. Holly knows who her friends are, and they’re the people to whom she pays attention.” Reports have emerged that Phillip vented his exasperation to co-star Holly Willoughby via WhatsApp before the public learned of his departure from This Morning.

An insider spilled to The Mirror: “As well as saying she had brought him down, he said he couldn’t believe his TV sister would do this to him.” Allegations suggest Phillip felt slighted by Holly’s supposed lack of solidarity amid speculation of behind-the-scenes tension following his brother’s court proceedings in May 2023.

Phillip’s sibling, Timothy Schofield, received a 12-year prison sentence for a series of child sex offences that occurred between October 2016 and October 2019. Phillip recently made a TV return on Channel 5 this September after concluding a two-decade stint on This Morning. While marooned on an isolated island for his comeback show, Phillip reflected on his time at the ITV studio, which he claimed grew inhospitable.

Subtly alluding to his peers, he remarked: “And the people who did it to me, know, they know how important that building was to me. They know that when you throw someone under a bus, you’ve got to have a really bloody good reason to do it. Brand, ambition is not good enough. It’s not a good enough reason to throw someone under a bus.”

Fiery TV host Eamonn Holmes has made his feelings clear about his former This Morning colleague Phillip Schofield – we take a look back at his biggest zingers

Eamonn Holmes and Phillip Schofield have never been close pals and the Belfast broadcaster hasn’t held back when it comes to voicing his opinion about the TV star.

Phillip’s new Channel 5 series Cast Away has seen him suggest he was “thrown under the bus” by his colleagues before his exit from This Morning.

But Eamonn, who worked with the former primetime host for 14 years, hit back on his GB News breakfast show, saying: “I’m one of the people who threw him under the bus I am very proud to have done it”. The star went onto accuse Phillip of being “absolutely addicted to fame”.

Phillip left the ITV show last year after admitting to an “unwise, but not illegal affair” with a younger male colleague. Rumours had been swirling for months about a feud with his former best pal, co-star Holly Willoughby, too.

 

“On a personal level, Phillip and Eamonn never got on,” a source told Mail Online. “Eamonn found him snippy and passive- aggressive and thought he treated the lower-down people on the show very badly.”

We take a look at the times Eamonn took a swipe at his former colleague…

Phil cuts off Ruth

Tension behind the scenes on the This Morning sofa famously spilled into the public eye in 2019, when Phillip cut Ruth off as the show was handing over to Loose Women for a preview of panel topics that day. Ruth hadn’t finished talking when the host jumped in and said: “Guys, we’re going to have to jump in there and stop you I’m afraid because we’re a bit tight for time at this end. Thank you, Ruth.”

The Loose Women star looked visibly annoyed and threw her hands up in the air, hitting back: “Well, I only had about two more words to say”. The snappy exchange led viewers to suspect an offscreen feud and it was reported that Ruth made a complaint to ITV about Phillip’s “rudeness” and the “toxicity” that she claimed he brought to ITV.

“It was about his rudeness,” Eamonn said later in an interview with GB News. “We always had to do this handover between programmes from This Morning and Loose Women about what was coming on next. The Loose Women always felt very demeaned by the whole thing because he was always so rude to them.”

‘Deception’ claims

When Phillip, who had been married to his wife Stephanie for 27 years, came out as gay on This Morning in February 2020, Eamonn and Ruth were by his side. The former couple put rumours of tension to one side to support the star, with the Belfast broadcaster telling Phillip: “It’s fantastic, so many people will be strengthened by this. We’ll be standing beside you.”

Phillip later told social media: “Can I just say that @EamonnHolmes & @RuthieeL were utterly magnificent with me today, privately downstairs just the three of us and upstairs in front of the world. I couldn’t have hoped for a better, calming and loving set of hugs and support, I adore them both.”

The star later confessed to having an affair with a younger colleague on his morning programme and Eamonn went on to claim the couple had been deceived, saying: “The man told us complete lies and we unfortunately believed him”.

“Ruth and I were deceived and lied to,” he raged at both Phillip and ITV. “One day I will tell the story. We had no issue with him being gay, only support. What transpired took us for fools .”

Queue gate

In September 2022, Phillip and his co-presenter Holly Willoughby were blasted for queue-jumping the public to see the late Queen Elizabeth II lying in state. While David Beckham was among the huge celebrities to queue for hours, the This Morning duo did not but they insisted they had “respected” the rules set for media.

Eamonn called them both arrogant liars, saying: “They didn’t get a fast-track, they say. Lie. They say they didn’t pay their respects to the body. Lie. What else were they there for? Let’s just tell the truth about the whole thing.

“They messed up, and instead of being arrogant and saying: ‘We were there working as journalists’, why don’t they just say: ‘Yeah, we thought it would be a good idea’.”

The ‘fake friendship’

A month before he resigned from ITV, Phillip hit back at reports he had fallen out with Holly saying she was his “rock” and “best friend”. This prompted Eamonn to say that both he and Holly “deserved a special award for best actors” at the BAFTA TV Awards.

“The public surely will suss that there’s no chemistry,” he said on GB News. “That it’s a broken fit between the two of them and that This Morning does not depend on who presents it.”

Phillip ‘caught out’

Phillip announced his departure from This Morning on May 20, 2023, after confessing to an affair with a much younger colleague. Eamonn was quick to respond, fuming: “Schofield has finally been caught out”.

“Let’s just stop this,” he told GB News. “He was sacked. All this nonsense about giving him: ‘I’ve decided to step down.’ I’m sure you did, I’m sure you did. Here’s your P45, now step down.”

ITV responded to the comments saying Phillip’s exit from the show was a joint decision with This Morning.

The bombshell claims

In a no holds barred interview last May, Eamonn hit out following the news his former colleague had embarked on a affair with a young runner on This Morning. During the chat, he claimed that Phillip’s ex- lover was driven from his London home in cars paid for by ITV, and made further claims about a “cover-up” about the affair by the channel.

This week the stars of Loose Women have been supporting panellist Brenda Edwards following the death of her son Jamal, 31

Brenda Edwards shared a heartbreaking message with her Loose Women co-hosts and ITV viewers after her son Jamal Edwards tragically died aged 31.

The Loose Women panellist, 52, shared a message with co-host Kaye Adams for ITV viewers after tributes and words of comfort have poured in following Jamal’s tragic death.

Kaye told viewers on Thursday’s show: “Brenda’s been in touch and she sincerely wanted to pass on to you at home that she’s been so moved by all of your messages and love and support.”

The 59-year-old presenter continued to say that the show’s producer had been on the phone with Brenda moments before the show went live.

She said: “Brenda was just saying that Jamal loved the fact that his mum was on the show. He was so proud of Brenda.

“They were so proud of each other and she really is taking comfort from the messages that have come from the show here and from you at home and a box of love will be coming to you Brenda from the studio crew as well.”

Kaye then turned to her fellow panellists Carol McGiffin, Denise Welch and Gloria Hunniford, saying: “It’s difficult. What can you say in these situations? I sat with my phone wondering, what do I say? What do I write? But it makes a difference.”

Gloria, 81, described the support she found in messages from others when her own daughter Caron Keating died at the age of 41 from breast cancer.

She said: “Those letters meant everything at that period of time, because it gives you great comfort that people loved your child, partner, mum or dad, whatever the case may be.

“So, thank you so much and keep sending her messages, it’s really important.”

She continued: “I believe having been through it, that losing a child takes you to a depth that you never knew that you had of sadness.

“To carry that child for nine months, to give birth to that child, to adore that child, it’s just unbearable to lose that child.”

Gloria said it has been “a very sad week” and her thoughts have been with Brenda since she learnt of Jamal’s death.

She said: “You at home have been amazing and Jamal was such a fantastic young man.

Kaye said: “Brenda’s been so moved by all of your messages” (

The Loose Women paid tribute to the music entrepreneur and founder of SBTV with an emotional show on Monday, as Charlene White and Judi Love said they had been with Brenda after she received the devastating news.
