  • Prince George SHOCKINGLY Inherited Pivotal Role In William’s Bold Plan As Monarch Set To Withdraw

    Prince George SHOCKINGLY Inherited Pivotal Role In William’s Bold Plan As Monarch Set To Withdraw

     

    In a fascinating and somewhat scandalous revelation, reports have emerged from behind the scenes of the popular TV series “Suits,” suggesting that Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, was involved in a less-than-flattering incident during her time on the show. According to a staff member who worked closely with the production, there were whispers that Markle had taken jewelry from the set, a claim that has ignited debates among fans and critics alike.

    The story unfolds with the backdrop of “Suits,” a legal drama that not only showcased Markle’s acting talents but also served as a launchpad for her later rise to fame and eventual marriage to Prince Harry. During her tenure on the show, which ran for nine seasons, Markle played the role of Rachel Zane, a paralegal with aspirations of becoming a lawyer. Her character was often adorned with stunning pieces of jewelry that reflected both her status and style. However, it seems that some of these pieces may have gone missing under questionable circumstances.

     

    The staff member, who chose to remain anonymous for fear of backlash, revealed that there were several instances where jewelry from the set went unaccounted for. The individual noted that while it was common for actors to borrow jewelry for their roles, there was a distinct difference between borrowing and outright taking. This revelation has sparked intense scrutiny and speculation regarding Markle’s character on and off the screen. Was this merely a misunderstanding, or was there something more sinister at play?

    As the story gained traction, it became clear that this was not just a simple case of misplaced jewelry. The staff member recounted a specific incident where Markle was seen wearing a pair of earrings that had gone missing from the set. Eyewitness accounts described her as being particularly fond of the extravagant pieces, which were valued at a significant amount. The situation was complicated further by the fact that many crew members had grown fond of Markle, making it difficult for them to believe she would engage in such behavior. Yet, the rumors persisted, leading to a palpable tension on set.

     

    The tension was not just confined to the set of “Suits.” As Markle transitioned from acting to her royal life, the narrative surrounding her changed dramatically. The media’s coverage of her began to focus not only on her humanitarian efforts but also on the controversies that seemed to follow her. With every royal engagement and public appearance, whispers of her past on “Suits” resurfaced, leading to a complicated relationship with the press and public perception.

    As the allegations regarding the jewelry theft circulated, they caught the attention of fans and critics alike, many of whom were eager to dissect Markle’s actions and motivations. Some fans staunchly defended her, arguing that the claims were exaggerated or misinterpreted, while others were quick to point fingers, suggesting that her behavior was indicative of a deeper entitlement or disregard for boundaries. This divide reflected the broader discourse surrounding Markle and her role within the royal family.

     

    In the midst of this chaos, Markle’s representatives issued a statement to address the claims. They firmly denied any wrongdoing, asserting that Markle had always respected the property of others and that any jewelry she wore was appropriately borrowed for her role. This response, however, did little to quell the speculation. Instead, it fueled further debate about the nature of celebrity and accountability, particularly in a culture that often scrutinizes the rich and famous more harshly than others.

    As the years went by, the story of the missing jewelry became a footnote in Markle’s narrative, overshadowed by her marriage to Prince Harry, their subsequent departure from royal duties, and their ongoing philanthropic efforts. Nevertheless, the incident continued to linger in the background, serving as a reminder of the complexities of fame and the challenges of navigating public perception.

    What remains most intriguing about this story is not just the alleged theft itself, but the broader implications it has for how we perceive individuals in the spotlight. The world of celebrity is often unforgiving, and mistakes—real or perceived—can follow individuals for years, shaping their legacy in unexpected ways. For Markle, the jewelry claims added another layer to her already multifaceted public persona, intertwining her past as an actress with her present as a duchess.

     

    In a world where social media amplifies voices and opinions, the narrative surrounding Markle’s time on “Suits” and the alleged jewelry theft serves as a cautionary tale. It highlights the importance of accountability, transparency, and the need to navigate the tricky waters of fame with care. As we continue to follow Markle’s journey, it is clear that the lessons learned from this incident will resonate not only within her story but also in the stories of countless others who find themselves in the public eye.

    As we reflect on this scandal, it’s essential to consider the impact of our judgments. The allegations against Markle may have been sensationalized, but they remind us that everyone, regardless of their status, is subject to scrutiny. The question remains: how do we balance our fascination with celebrity culture with a sense of empathy and understanding? Perhaps, in the end, it is this balance that will define not only Markle’s legacy but also our collective approach to the stories that unfold in the public domain.

    In a world hungry for gossip and intrigue, the tale of Meghan Markle and the stolen jewelry from “Suits” serves as a glimpse into the broader dynamics of fame and reputation. It challenges us to think critically about the narratives we consume and the people behind them. As the dust settles on this particular saga, one thing is clear: the complexities of human behavior, especially under the lens of public scrutiny, will always be a captivating subject for discussion and reflection.

  • Sad truth behind Zoe Ball’s shock decision to quit Radio 2 despite £950k salary

    Sad truth behind Zoe Ball’s shock decision to quit Radio 2 despite £950k salary

    Zoe Ball is leaving BBC Radio 2 next month after six years on air following a tough year after losing her beloved mum

    On Tuesday, BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball shocked listeners when she announced that she was leaving her duties on the show after six years – and now the real reason for her departure has been ‘revealed’.

    Zoe, 53, shared her heartfelt gratitude, saying she is “really touched” by the wave of well-wishes following her announcement that she will be stepping down as host of BBC Radio 2’s Breakfast Show.

    The media star plans to leave next month and cites wanting to “focus on family” as her reason but also expressed that she’s “really chuffed” for Scott Mills, who will step into the early morning role.

    Ball succeeded Chris Evans in 2019 and after six years, she’s ready to bid farewell to the dawn chorus, indicating it’s time for her to “step away from the very early mornings and focus on family”, with her final broadcast scheduled for December 20. Meanwhile, Mills, currently hosting Radio 2’s afternoon slot, is set to take over from January.

    On Instagram, Ball showed appreciation: “Really touched, thanks for the messages, thrilled for my mates Scott, Trevor, Spoony and Sophie.” TV favourite Rylan Clark hailed Zoe as “being the best wake-up for the past six years” while also lauding Mills in his Instagram stories: “Scott, I’ve never been more happy for someone. If you grazed your knee you would bleed radio. I know how much this means to you and I’m so so proud of you”.

    Beaming alongside Mills for a photo op outside New Broadcasting House, Zoe told reporters of her pride for her colleague Mills. “It has all turned out nicely,” she said contently.

    “I’m really chuffed for my mate and really excited about it.” Ball warmed the hearts of her fans during her Tuesday radio show when she addressed her audience, saying, “You know I think the world of you all, listeners, and it truly has been such a privilege to share the mornings with you, to go through life’s little ups and downs, we got through the lockdown together, didn’t we?”

    “We’ve shared a hell of a lot, the good times, the tough times, there’s been a lot of laughter. And I am going to miss you cats.” Despite the love for her job, Ball couldn’t resist adding a note on her early starts: “But I won’t miss the 4am alarm call, if I’m completely honest.”

    Zoe’s shock departure from BBC Radio 2 comes after she had an unexplained six-week absence this summer. Listeners were growing increasingly concerned for the radio presenter, but after six weeks, Zoe returned to the show as she declared ‘I’m back!’ in an upbeat tone.

    At the time, Zoe said she was happy to be back as she told Radio 2 listeners that she was a ‘wanderer’ no more. However, insiders have now claimed that the much-loved star was masking the unhappiness that had kept her off air for six weeks.

    Sources have claimed that Zoe’s reasoning for leaving her duties on Radio 2 are down to a desire to spend more time with her kids, Woody, 23, and Nellie, 14 – after the death of her beloved mum earlier this year.

    The catalyst for the change in Zoe’s perspective on her work-life balance is reportedly down to the passing of her beloved mother Julia, who died earlier this year.

    Of her decision to finally call it a day after six years at BBC Radio 2, a source said: “In the end, this was completely her decision. She came to them [the BBC] in September after she had had a break to think about her life and said: ‘I’m done.’ The BBC… wanted a bit of time to put everything in place, which they were able to do. They looked at who might do it… I think they only seriously considered Vernon Kay and Scott Mills.”

    Prince William and Kate Middleton’s ‘Naughty’ Sense of Humor Keeps Their Marriage Spark Alive, Says Expert

     

    Prince William and Kate Middleton continue to share laughter and joy, even after more than a decade of marriage. Despite their royal responsibilities as the Prince and Princess of Wales and their roles as parents to Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, the couple remains playful with each other, keeping the spark alive in their relationship.

    Royal author Christopher Anderson shared insights with Fox News Digital, saying, “William once described Kate’s sense of humor as ‘naughty’ and his own as ‘dirty.’ He mentioned that it was one of the key things that brought them together. While they’ve certainly adjusted their behavior for the sake of their children, they can still make each other laugh uncontrollably.”

    Reflecting on their early days together, Prince William revealed in 2010 during an interview with Tom Bradby, “We met at university – at St Andrews we were friends for over a year before anything romantic happened. We just spent more time together, had a good laugh, and realized we shared a lot of the same interests. It was a lot of fun.”

    He continued, “Kate’s got a really naughty sense of humor, which works well with me because I have a dry sense of humor. It was good fun – we shared lots of laughs, and that’s when things started to blossom.”

    Exclusive: ITV I’m A Celebrity confirms TWO new arrivals as they threaten to shake up camp

    Love Island legend Maura Higgins and Reverend Richard Coles talk to the Mirror and confirm they are jungle-bound – and set to spark chaos on I’m A Celebrity 2024

    Ex Love Island star Maura Higgins and Reverend Richard Coles have finally been confirmed to be entering the I’m A Celebrity 2024 camp with them set to shake things up.

    The duo spoke to the Mirror to reveal they would be arriving on the show on Thursday in some exciting show news. It was revealed by hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly at the end of the episode that Maura and Richard were on their way, in scenes to air on Thursday night.

    The hosts confirmed the pair would arrive and be in a separate camp, where they would have to take on a secret mission. Maura is in Australia after jetting straight in following a boozy, blow-out in Las Vegas. “Honestly, I’m not good….I feel like I’m in The Hangover, I’ve even got the shakes,” she laughs.

    “I have no clue what time it is, I don’t know where I am. In fact, I’ve done the opposite of preparing myself [for the jungle]. I’ve tried not to think about it, because when I think about it, I get so much anxiety.”

    She will become only the second ever Love Islander after Olivia Attwood to appear on the ITV show… and is determined to fly the flag for the show’s former contestants. “I just don’t want to let people down, because everyone’s been DMing me, saying ‘Oh my God, I hope you’re doing the show.’” she explains. “I don’t want to back out of the trials and be the biggest wimp in the camp.”

    She says her mum was left flabbergasted when she told her she’d signed up for the Jungle. “She nearly died. She went: ‘Maura, how are you going to do that?’ She is baffled as I’m more of an indoor girl…I like my hotels. I’ve never slept outside,” she says. She refused to camp even at festivals. “I’m always like, ‘no, get me back to a hotel,’” she laughs.

    So what can we expect when she enters the camp alongside Rev Richard Coles as one of the late arrivals. “It’s been five years and I think I’ve matured, but I still have a potty mouth,” she explains. “I’m still the same kind of girl but I’m not going to go in and annihilate anyone. However, if someone gets on my nerves, I’m not really one to hold it in. I do speak my mind. If someone patronized me, I get really irritated. Like, that’s one thing that really drives me mad.”

    Reverend Richard Coles says his preparation for the jungle entailed consuming 5000 calories a day on a cruise and avoiding ‘triggering’ nature documentaries. The star said: “I would like to say that I’ve been lowering my calorie intake to prepare for that, but that’s not worked out so far. I’ve been trying not to look at nature programs about the horrors of Australia.”

    The 62-year-old says he is worried about his snoring and “everybody wanting to kill me because I keep them awake at night.” He added: “I am also worried about finding a fear I didn’t know I had yet and going to pieces on television in front of a koala or wombat or something.”

    But Richard is also thrilled about being the first vicar in the jungle. ”I don’t think there are many precedents for this, although, vicars have been going into jungles for years and years and years as missionaries.”

    SADLY‼️William Sadly informs King Charles & the General public that he is quiting his royal duties


     

    In a scandal that has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, a former staff member from the set of the hit television series “Suits” has come forward with allegations that Meghan Markle, now the Duchess of Sussex, stole jewelry during her time on the show. The claims have ignited a firestorm of controversy, with fans and critics alike weighing in on the veracity of the allegations and the implications they hold for the royal family.

    The story begins with the anonymous staff member, who worked on “Suits” during its earlier seasons. This individual claims to have witnessed Markle taking various pieces of jewelry from the costume department without permission. According to the source, the jewelry in question included a stunning array of earrings, necklaces, and bracelets that were meant to enhance the character of Rachel Zane, whom Markle portrayed on the show. The staff member alleges that Markle would often complain about the lack of personal accessories available to her and would then “borrow” items, which were never returned.

     

    As the allegations came to light, they were met with a mix of skepticism and intrigue. Many fans of “Suits” found it difficult to believe that the actress, who had built a successful career in Hollywood and was known for her charitable work, would resort to such behavior. Critics, however, pointed to the pressures of the entertainment industry, suggesting that the desire for a glamorous image could drive someone to inappropriate actions. The staff member’s account has since gone viral, leading to widespread discussions across social media platforms and entertainment news outlets.

    In the wake of the allegations, Markle’s representatives issued a statement vehemently denying the claims. They described the former staff member as disgruntled and seeking attention, suggesting that the allegations were unfounded and motivated by a desire for fame. They emphasized that any jewelry worn by Markle on the show was provided by the production team and was returned at the end of her tenure. This response, however, did little to quell the growing curiosity surrounding the story.

    As the narrative unfolded, it became evident that the allegations were not just about stolen jewelry but were also emblematic of the broader scrutiny that Markle faces in the public eye. Since marrying Prince Harry, she has been subjected to intense media scrutiny, often being portrayed in a negative light. The theft allegations seemed to fit into a larger narrative of Markle as a controversial figure, one whose actions are often interpreted through a lens of skepticism and judgment.

    The backlash against Markle intensified as tabloids and social media users began to dissect her past, with many recalling other instances where she faced criticism. From her strained relationship with the royal family to her outspoken views on various social issues, Markle has often found herself at the center of public debate. The jewelry theft allegations seemed to add fuel to the fire, prompting discussions about her character and integrity.

     

    In response to the unfolding drama, some of Markle’s supporters rallied to her defense. They argued that the allegations were baseless and highlighted the pervasive double standards in how women, particularly women of color, are treated in the media. They pointed out that similar accusations against male celebrities or white actresses rarely garnered the same level of scrutiny or public outrage. This perspective resonated with many, sparking conversations about race, gender, and the treatment of women in the public eye.

    As the story continued to develop, it attracted attention from major news outlets, leading to a flurry of articles, opinion pieces, and expert analyses. Some commentators expressed concern that the allegations could impact Markle’s reputation, particularly as she and Prince Harry continue to carve out their own path post-royalty. Others speculated about the long-term implications for her philanthropic efforts and public engagements, wondering if the allegations would hinder her ability to connect with audiences and supporters.

     

    In a surprising twist, the situation prompted a wave of discussions about the culture of Hollywood and the pressures faced by actresses. Many industry insiders weighed in, sharing stories of their own experiences with theft and misrepresentation in a high-pressure environment. Some called for a broader examination of the expectations placed on women in the entertainment industry, with conversations surrounding the need for more robust support systems and protections against exploitation.

    Notably, the jewelry theft allegations also sparked debates about the blurred lines between personal and professional lives for public figures. Markle’s transition from actress to royal has been fraught with challenges, and many began to question the expectations placed upon her. How much of her past should be scrutinized, and at what point do individuals deserve the chance to move on from their previous lives? These questions lingered as the story unfolded, prompting reflections on the nature of fame and accountability.

    As the dust settled on the initial wave of media coverage, it became clear that the jewelry theft allegations were more than just a scandal; they were a lens through which to explore deeper societal issues. The conversations that emerged underscored the complexities of modern celebrity culture, the challenges faced by women in leadership roles, and the need for empathy and understanding in a world quick to judge.

    In the end, while the allegations remain unproven, the impact of the story is undeniable. Meghan Markle has found herself at the center of yet another controversy, one that has reignited discussions about race, gender, and the treatment of public figures. As her journey continues, it will be interesting to see how she navigates the challenges ahead and whether this latest scandal will leave a lasting mark on her legacy.

    With each new chapter of her life, Markle’s experiences serve as a reminder of the complexities of fame and the importance of compassion in a world eager to cast judgment. As the public reflects on her past, present, and future, the hope remains that she will continue to rise above the noise and focus on her mission to inspire positive change. For now, the jewelry theft allegations stand as a testament to the intricate dance of celebrity, where every move is scrutinized and every misstep magnified under the harsh glare of public attention.

  • I’m battling cancer like Princess Kate did, here’s what I think of ‘smoker’ claim

    I’m battling cancer like Princess Kate did, here’s what I think of ‘smoker’ claim

    Robert Fisk

    Cancer has a visible effect on the body of those of us battling it (Image: Humphrey Nemar/Daily Express)

    Cancer, and the ongoing treatment to keep me alive, has completely ravaged my body. My bowel is riddled with scar tissue, chemotherapy has caused osteoporosis in my spine, and my liver has been close to failing several times.

    And every time I walk down the street or get on a bus I worry that people are judging me for how I look.

    Since starting chemotherapy last summer I’ve put on at least two stone in weight due to steroids, my face has acquired a very unsexy pinkish red rash, my hair has many shades of grey and is a lot thinner than it’s ever been before, and I have a massive hernia that surgeons might not be able to operate on.

    So when I saw the post by outspoken Good Morning Britain commentator Narinder Kaur about Kate, Princess of Wales, on Remembrance Sunday, when she wrote on X: “Genuine question – why has Kate aged so much? Isn’t she only 42? Is she a smoker? It’s the only explanation,” you can see why I was absolutely furious.

    I’m on cycle 30 of my chemotherapy and, as a “lifer” in the cancer day unit I’ve witnessed as both men and women come to terms with how the disease has changed how they look.

    None of us have had to do this under the spotlight that the Princess of Wales has had to endure. And, quite frankly, none of us look as good as she does after her treatment for cancer.

    Princess Kate

    As she stood on the balcony overlooking the Cenotaph Princess Kate looked solemn and she looked cold. That’s it.

    I don’t know what version of events Narinder Kaur was watching but I think everyone in my day unit would agree that what Ms Kaur said was despicable.

    As her harsh words began to unravel she tried to justify herself by saying she was just asking about ageing.

    I’m a child of the 1980s and was always taught it was rude to ask a woman her age. So genuine question, as she would say, why did Ms Kaur think that it was acceptable to post about ageing?

    Instead of trying to justify herself by saying that her brother didn’t age during his cancer battle, why didn’t she appreciate that everyone with the disease is different?

    Just because her brother looked a certain way, it doesn’t mean that everyone with cancer will look like that.

    I’d love to look the way that I did before cancer (I’d especially like to be as thin as I was when I was 15) but I don’t have that luxury.

    Instead, I’ve tried to come to terms with my disease-ravaged body, so when people like Ms Kaur question Princess Kate’s appearance it makes it more difficult for cancer sufferers like me to accept the way I am.

    So here’s some advice for Narinder Kaur: Next time you have a “genuine question” about the way someone looks, just ask someone close to you instead of using it as a way to generate clicks and engagement on your social media accounts.

    Fighting cancer is a tough enough battle both mentally and physically without being in the public eye, so it’s best to think before doing your best to be outspoken.

    Coleen Nolan’s life off-screen from famous sons, soapstar ex and tragic death

    Loose Women star Coleen Nolan has been in the public eye since childhood alongside her sisters and has remained in the public eye ever since.

    Loose Women star Coleen Nolan rose to fame as a child alongside her sisters and has remained in the public eye ever since.

    At the age of nine, Coleen made her first television debut alongside her sisters on the TV show It’s Cliff Richard! and has remained a staple on TV screens since.

    Coleen, who became a star when she joined The Nolans with her siblings, has had an incredibly successful career. However, in the early 90s, she left the pop group to focus on her children.

    A few years later, she joined the Loose Women panel in 2000, a position she’s maintained to this day. However, Coleen has made plenty of other TV appearances over the years.

    The 59-year-old has been a presenter on This Morning, a contestant on Dancing on Ice, and a runner-up on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! and won Celebrity Big Brother in 2017.

    With so much of Coleen’s life captured over the years, we’ve taken a look into her world when the cameras aren’t rolling. From turbulent relationships, steamy affairs, heartbreaking deaths and soap star exes, Coleen’s life is anything but boring.

    Relationships

    In the late 1980s, Coleen met actor and entertainment star Shane Richie, who is best known for playing Alfie Moon on BBC’s EastEnders.

    It wasn’t long before they welcomed their first son together before getting engaged. The duo initially planned a grand wedding, but they ended up eloping to Florida in the 1990s.

    Along with their son Shane Jr, they also had a second son together called Jake. However, their romance came to an end in 1997, with both Coleen and Shane confessing to having affairs during their relationship.

    In her autobiography, Coleen detailed kissing a keyboard player while on tour with her sisters. Admitting she felt unattractive and non-existent after having her second son, she enjoyed the attention.

    She wrote: “As I kissed my musician, it was like a sexual awakening. Adrenalin was pumping through my body. I knew what I was doing was terribly wrong, but I was literally shaking with exhilaration. ‘I am still attractive,’ I thought to myself.”

    Since then, Coleen has been overwhelmed with guilt and has described the incident as “one of the most horrendous times” of her life.

    Despite both Coleen and Shane’s infidelities, the pair kept things amicable and continued to co-parent their sons together.

    After her divorce, she met musician Ray Fensome, who became her second husband and father to her only daughter, Ciara. In 2005, the duo got engaged before tying the knot two years later in 2007.

    Sadly, their marriage didn’t work out, and they called it a day in their relationship two years after their wedding. However, similarly to Shane, Coleen and Ray appear to have no bad blood and are close friends.

    Recently, Coleen showcased her partner, Michael Jones, on Loose Women after meeting him on the dating app Tinder. However, the pair’s relationship has been anything but smooth sailing, as it’s reported they’ve called it quits three times.

    Speaking to the Mirror, she said: “It was all my issues because of what I’d gone through, so I was pushing him away, thinking I couldn’t deal with it. I’m very open to everything he’s providing me emotionally, and it’s fantastic”

    However, it seems like things are back on track as she shared a sweet snap alongside Michael and her family while watching one of her son’s shows in Edinburgh.

    Children

    Coleen has three children, two of which she shares with EastEnders star Shane Richie, and she often speaks about them while appearing on Loose Women.

    It looks as though her two eldest, Shane Jr and Jake, have followed in their parent’s showbiz footsteps.

    When the Nolan Sisters toured together in 2009, Shane Jr was the warm-up singer for his mum’s band. However, he also fronts The Nolan Band alongside Matt Bamber and Jack Lavelle.

    Similarly, Jake is also no stranger to the performing world. He was part of the band Rixton, now called Push Baby, which had a hit No.1 song, “Me and My Broken Heart.”

    Coleen shares her youngest and only daughter, Ciara, with ex-partner Ray Fensome. Earlier this year, Coleen spoke about Ciara’s decision to travel the world with her partner.

    She confessed: “They’ve worked really hard and saved up and I’m so proud of them both and her, but honestly, I just can’t stop crying. But I’m trying not to do it in front of her because I’m thrilled and I’m proud because what an amazing thing to do. But it’s like losing my best friend.”

    However, it seems as though Ciara is back in the UK, as Coleen recently shared a sweet snap of them together.

    Family heartbreak and cancer scare

    Tragically, Coleen lost her sister Bernie in 2013 after she died at the age of 52, following a three-year battle with breast cancer. Three years before she died, Bernie underwent treatment.

    Having a mastectomy and undergoing chemotherapy, Bernie was given the all-clear in 2012. Sadly, it wasn’t long before the disease returned and spread aggressively to her brain, bones, lungs, and liver.

    Coleen has openly spoken about Bernie’s death on Loose Women over the years. More recently, the ITV star detailed how everyone in her family handles grief differently.

    She said: “For me. It’s not, ‘Oh, I like to have this thing that’s going to help me remember them’. Because I never, ever, from the day she died or my parents died, ever forgot. I’ll never forget.”

    Sadly, another one of Coleen’s sisters, Linda, is currently battling breast cancer. She was initially diagnosed in 2005, although the disease resurfaced in 2017 and has spread to her brain, bones, and liver.

    During an episode of Loose Women, she told viewers her sister doesn’t want to know how long she has left and wants to enjoy the rest of her life.

    She said: “At the moment, she’s still having treatment, and that’s what’s keeping her going, you know, ‘as long as they’re still going to treat me, then I’m going to keep on going’.”Coleen's other sister Linda is currently battling cancer

    Coleen herself had her own health scare in 2023 when she was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma, a form of skin cancer.

    Speaking on the ‎Learning As I Go: Learning To Feel The Fear podcast, she confessed: ‘I got skin cancer last year. I had carcinoma on my shoulder, which has now gone. And I had chemo cream on my shoulder, so that burned that off.’

    Since then, the ITV star confessed she won’t go out without wearing SPF 50.

    Boris Johnson breaks silence after book claims Queen Elizabeth called him an ‘idiot’

    The former prime minister has dismissed claims the late Queen called him an ‘idiot’ just two days before her death.

    According to the book, titled ‘Out’ by Tim Shipman, the late Queen allegedly made the harsh comment during a family gathering at Balmoral Castle in Scotland.

    Appearing on GB News, Boris denied the claims and told the host: “I think it’s highly unlikely that she said that.”

    He added: “Because, of course, no prime minister organises the funeral. It’s done by DCMS.

    “I think it’s possible that it’s malicious tittle-tattle and what I can say, as I do say by my book ‘Unleashed’, I only mention her for the second time in a very decorous way. What I do try to give a picture of what it was like to meet her and the truth about the relationship.”

    In his new book, Tim Shipman, claims Queen Elizabeth II joked, “At least I won’t have that idiot organising my funeral now” after accepting Boris Johnson’s resignation as prime minister.

    In an additional quip about his personality, the author also claims the late Queen added that Boris was “perhaps better suited to the stage” and made the quip with “mischief in her eye”.

    The incident allegedly occurred when the late Queen appointed Liz Truss as her 15th prime minister in one of the final official acts of her reign.

    Further dismissing the claims on GB News, Boris questioned the source: “I’d like to know who the source of that is. I’m told by Shippers that it was a courtier to a Tory cabinet minister, which is three removed and I think it’s highly unlikely to be accurate.”

    The author also notes the final few days of Queen Elizabeth II’s life had been “happy ones”. He penned: “She had enjoyed a gathering of her family and treasured staff two evenings before her death. The late Queen passed away on September 8, 2022, at Balmoral, which is where she had been staying for the summer.

    Liz Truss, who was Prime Minister at the time of the late monarch’s death, has shared details from her final meeting with Queen Elizabeth II.

    The late Queen had welcomed Ms Truss to her home in the Scottish Highlands on September 6, 2022, to appoint her prime minister, and because of her health issues she was not able to travel to London to do so.

    According to Ms Truss, The late Queen told the former prime minister they would be “meeting again soon” at her final official engagement before her death.

    The politician described the late monarch, who was 96 when she died, as appearing “frail”, but she said she was “mentally alert”, “absolutely on top of” the proceedings and reassured Ms Truss they would meet again soon.

    She said: “In the meeting at Balmoral, she was absolutely on top of what was happening.

    “She was very, very keen to reassure me that we’d be meeting again soon. It was very important to her.”

    The book ‘Out’ by Tim Shipman is published by HarperCollins and is published on November 21.

  • Meghan Markle and Doria’s Secret: The Hidden Truth Behind Prince Harry’s Rehab Reveal!

    Meghan Markle and Doria’s Secret: The Hidden Truth Behind Prince Harry’s Rehab Reveal!

    Meghan Markle and Doria's Secret: The Hidden Truth Behind Prince Harry's Rehab Reveal!
    In September 2024, some intriguing rumors began circulating about Prince Harry, suggesting that he had mysteriously vanished from the public eye and checked into rehab. The timing was especially curious, as it came just before his birthday, a month often filled with royal celebrations. Instead of making his usual birthday appearance, Harry’s sudden disappearance raised a lot of questions: Was he hiding from paparazzi? Was he attending a new vegan retreat? Or, as the rumors now suggest, was he seeking professional help in rehab?

     

    According to various blind items making the rounds, Harry reportedly reached out for help after a period of intense soul-searching, possibly prompted by the pressures of his high-profile life. The idea is that after too many Netflix specials and dealing with royal family drama, Harry may have decided he needed a break—an opportunity to detox from the limelight and the weight of his rebellious royal persona. And frankly, who could blame him? The combination of trying to make entertaining TV while managing intense family drama is enough to overwhelm anyone.

    But here’s where it gets even more intriguing: Meghan Markle, ever the supportive wife, allegedly went into full cover-up mode to keep Harry’s rehab stay a secret. Instead of publicly acknowledging that Harry was taking time to recover, Meghan reportedly kept quiet and made sure not to reveal his whereabouts. She maintained her own polished image as the compassionate Duchess, ensuring that no one would question where Harry was or why he was out of sight.

    The timeline surrounding this was suspiciously perfect. On September 11, just days before Harry’s birthday, Meghan was seen at the launch of a bookstore event, appearing in public as if everything was normal. But after that, she seemed to disappear from the spotlight, only resurfacing a month later at a Gala for the LA Children’s Hospital. A full month of absence from public events? That’s the kind of alibi that makes a conspiracy theorist wonder if Meghan had been keeping herself busy with PR appearances while Harry was tucked away somewhere discreet, taking the time he needed for recovery.

    Word on the street suggests that Harry’s rehab stay might be linked to a more explosive story involving his alleged rift with the royal family. If he was looking for space from anyone, it might have been them. His disappearance was so well orchestrated that even the most seasoned gossip mills couldn’t figure out where he’d gone. Was he with friends? Hiding from Meghan? Or detoxing from the pressures of being Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex—the man who can’t even get through a birthday without disappearing for a month?

    In all seriousness, we may never know the full truth about Harry’s secret rehab stay. Whether it was an attempt to get help or simply a long-overdue break, one thing is clear: Meghan’s PR team worked overtime to ensure the public didn’t catch wind of what was really happening. So, will they ever address the rumors? Will Meghan break down on Instagram, or will Harry make a dramatic return to reality TV to share his royal rehab journey with the world? Only time will tell.

    Prince Harry has been recognised as a leader driving climate action as he’s been named on the second annual Time100 Climate 2024 list.

    Yesterday, Time magazine unveiled the list of the “100 most influential leaders driving business to real climate action”.

    The Duke of Sussex, 40, was named for his work with his environmental tourism initiative, Travalyst.

    He launched the not-for-profit organisation in 2019 – when he was still a working royal – to help “both travellers and travel companies make better, greener choices”.

    Harry was named in the same ‘Titan’ category as Bill Gates and Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, the King of Bhutan, and his profile bio reflected his inspiration for founding Travalyst.

    It read: “The Duke of Sussex supports conservation groups in Africa and says he really became an environmentalist during a trip in 2012 to the Caribbean when a 7-year-old boy told him that England’s environmental impact was damaging the coral reefs.

    “After that interaction, he was inspired to start Travalyst (‘travel’ and ‘catalyst’), a nonprofit that provides people booking travel with emissions and other sustainability data so they can consider the lowest impact options.

    “The aim is to help make a dent in the industry’s carbon footprint; tourism makes up about 11% of global greenhouse gas emissions.”

    During his recent trip to New York for Climate Week, Harry joined Travalyst as it announced its strategy for the next five years.
