I’m A Celebrity host Ant McPartlin has spent some quality time with his baby son Wilder in Australia after he kicked off the first episode of the 2024 series alongside Declan Donnelly

Ant McPartlin has been seen for the first time with his baby son Wilder in Australia as he celebrates his 49th birthday.

The I’m A Celebrity host enjoyed some time away from filming to enjoy quality time with his son as he cradled him while on a scenic walk. The Geordie TV presenter sweetly cuddled little Wilder after admitting that he was sad to leave his family for the jungle.

Ant and his long-time collaborator Declan Donnelly, 49, stunned fans when they quit their weekend show Saturday Night Takeaway after 20 years on the air. At the time, Ant said he was quitting the show in order to spend more time with his family – and now a report has suggested he is feeling “sad” about having to leave his infant son at home while he spends time in Australia for I’m A Celeb hosting duties.

The star has been married to wife Anne-Marie Corbett since 2021 and earlier this year they welcomed their first child together, their son, Wilder. Taking to social media at the time, proud dad Ant wrote: “Welcome to the family, Wilder Patrick Mcpartlin. Born, 14/05/24 at 8.54 am. Baby is beautiful, Mummy’s a legend, Sisters are over the moon. Dad’s a mess!” He shared the news alongside a snap of the baby cuddling up to him.

Last week, a new report suggested Ant is feeling hugely homesick in Australia after being forced to leave Anne-Marie and Wilder behind. A source toldOK! Magazine:“Ant is feeling really emotional about being so far away from Anne-Marie and Wilder. It’s the longest he has left them for and it’s going to be so difficult.”

Last year, Ant and his co-star Dec shocked fans when they announced the 2024 season of Saturday Night Takeaway would be their last as they wanted to scale back the amount of work they did to spend more time with their families.

In a subsequent interview with Fault magazine, Ant hinted he wanted to spend more time with his family, telling the publication: “On a more personal level, part of the reason we’re pausing Takeaway is we need a break ourselves, and we need to spend some time with our family.

“We’ve both got children that we need to spend time with for a little bit. We need time to think and, and time to step back and look at the bigger picture and just see where we are now.”

It comes as ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! fans slammed the show during the opening episode of the 2024 season as a technical issue left many unable to vote.

Sunday night saw a string of stars including WAG Coleen Rooney, McFly star Danny Jones, Dancing On Ice judge Oti Mabuse and N-Dubz icon Tulisa Contostavlos enter the jungle for the first time. As an initial trial, the original ten participants were divided into pairs and tasked with racing to the camp.

Tulisa and Coronation Street star Alan Halsall were the first to reach camp making them winners of the first trial and exempt from the first public vote which would determine which celebrities would take part in the Vile Volcano challenge. But when voting opened, many viewers found they were unable to vote as an apparent technical issues spoiled the fun.

Fans took to social media to complain about the error, with one writing on X: “It wont let me votee #ImACeleb” along with a crying face emoji. Another complained: “Omg is anyone else’s voting crashing because we’re all rushing to vote for GK Barry…#ImACeleb.” And a further fan wailed: “Is the voting app thing not working for anyone else? #imaceleb.”

Others were fuming about the amount of personal information they had to share to use the app, with one lashing out atITVto type: “F**KING HELL IVE DOWNLOADED THE APP WHY DO I NEED TO PUT IN MY PHONE NUMBER TO VOTE #ImACeleb.”

On Tuesday morning, Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley were bringing ITV viewers the latest headlines.

Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid was left in hysterics during Tuesday’s show.

It comes after the presenters spoke about Ed Sheeran’s recent confession that he would’ve declined his vocals being used in the upcoming re-release of Band-Aid’s song for its 40th anniversary.

Susanna mentioned Bob Geldof’s strong thoughts as Richard Madeley added: “He’s been very trenchant, we can’t repeat them, but he’s basically said, ‘if this is patronising colonial my backside’. Except he didn’t say backside, it rhymes with farts.”

His ITV co-star was instantly in hysterics over Richard’s comment as she commented: “I’m not sure we avoided the Ofcom ruling on that one!”

Giving viewers more context to their upcoming discussion, they detailed how Ed Sheeran has expressed his understanding of the song, and the charity narrative has completely changed.

Susanna added: “He’s shared a message from his friend, the musician, Fuse ODG who says, ‘Band Aid perpetuates damaging stereotypes’”.

Later on in the programme, Fuse would join Richard and Susanna to explain his thoughts further as the show was debating whether or not it’s time to scrap Band Aid completely.

In 1984, the original Band Aid single, Do They Know It’s Christmas, was released with the likes of Phil Collins, Boy George, David Bowie and George Michael providing vocals for the track.

The aim was to raise funds for charities working with starving children in Ethiopia. Since then, it’s been re-recorded twice, once in 2004 and again in 2014.

With its 40th year anniversary coming up, it was announced a new version of the charity song would be released, blending the ones over the years.

Ed Sheeran, who appeared on the song back in 2014, took to social media to share his thoughts on the matter.

He wrote: “My approval wasn’t sought on this new Band Aid 40 release and had I had the choice I would have respectfully declined the use of my vocals.

However, Sir Bob Geldof, who organised and co-wrote the track, has slammed the criticism and defended the song.

He commented: “This little pop song has kept hundreds of thousands if not millions of people alive,” reports BBC.

Sir Bob continued: “In fact, just today Band Aid has given hundreds of thousands of pounds to help those running from the mass slaughter in Sudan and enough cash to feed a further 8,000 children in the same affected areas of Ethiopia as 1984.

“Those exhausted women who weren’t raped and killed and their panicked children and any male over 10 who survived the massacres and those 8,000 Tigrayan children will sleep safer, warmer, and cared for tonight because of that miraculous little record.

“We wish that it were other, but it isn’t. ‘Colonial tropes’, my a**e.”

Good Morning Britain continues weekdays on ITV from 6am.

Rebekah Vardy didn’t hold back her thoughts on Coleen Rooney entering the I’m A Celebrity camp

Rebekah Vardy has officially broken her silence on Coleen Rooney’s I’m A Celebrity stint.

Shortly after Coleen entered the jungle on Sunday, hosts Ant and Dec poked fun at her high profile Wagatha Christie court case with Rebekah.

In her column about this year’s instalment of the hit ITV show, Rebekah certainly didn’t hold back as she mocked Coleen’s efforts in the opening task, writing: “Coleen sank in the river twice. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.”

She also didn’t hold back when speaking about Tulisa, writing: “Tulisa. Oh, my God. I hardly recognise her, but I love her. She’s fierce, she looks so determined and she reminds me a bit of how I was in there. You know, I really, really wanted to go in and give it all.” She added in The Sun: “And, you know, nothing really fazed me in there. But she’s very, very competitive as well, which is great.”

Just minutes into Sunday’s programme, presenter Dec joked about Coleen: “It will be nice for her to face trial that doesn’t involve Rebekah Vardy.” It was of course in reference to Coleen’s highly public clash with fellow WAG Rebekah that ended up with them both in court. Rebekah has also starred on the ITV programme back in 2017.

Coleen, 38, famously accused Rebekah of leaking stories to the Sun with an infamous social media post. Rebekah kicked off a high-profile libel battle but in July 2022, a judge at the High Court found the post was “substantially true”.

But her new column comments aren’t the first time Rebekah has given the Coleen drama a nod. As Coleen entered camp, Rebekah also posted a snap of herself bathing in a pink bikini with her eyes closed.

Appearing relaxed in the photo, Rebekah teased: “The feeling when you are living rent free in people’s heads.” She added a laugh-crying emoji and a winking emoji to her post.

And as the episode continued, Rebekah returned to her account to post a video of Donald Trump.

In the clip, Trump said: “Let them hate, let them doubt you, let them criticise because the truth is the more they throw at you, the stronger you become. The path to success is never without resistance and hate.” Alongside the video, Rebekah simply added an emoji of an alarm clock.

When asked if she would tune into ITV to watch one of the original WAGs face the Bushtucker trials, Rebekah previously said: “Absolutely, we’ll be watching avidly. Everyone seems to think I have this massive problem with Coleen going into the jungle. But do you know what? If you want to fan the fire, the flames are going to get higher. I wasn’t going to carry on talking about this, I had no intention of talking about it, but she clearly can’t let it go.”

Despite being landed with huge legal costs, money does not appear to be an object as she also claimed that she would happily drop everything and jump “on the plane now” to enter the camp alongside Coleen. She declared: “One hundred per cent, I’d say yes if they asked me. Get me on the plane now. Over to you, ITV.”

What happened to This Morning today as ITV pull all live TV off air – including Loose Women – due to security incident. Nearby Wood Lane and White City tube stations have been closed as police deal with the bomb threat

ITV has pulled its live shows – This Morning and Loose Women – off air today, with emergency footage aired instead.

Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby had been presenting This Morning live, but after they returned from the break, the pair appeared in a pre-recorded segment to say they couldn’t be with viewers live today.

It was a bomb threat that took the show off air – but the Metropolitan Police have since confirmed that the security incident, which was reported nearby to the studios, has been diffused.

Earlier in the programme, they had aired an interview with Rebel Wilson, whilst Brenda Blethyn appeared on the show to talk about the new series of Kate and Koji.

Instead of their planned Guess the Gadget segment, back up footage of Phil and Holly trying some tree-hugging was aired rather than the live show. As part of the emergency footage, they also aired a segment with Britain’s dullest men.

A statement from the Metropolitan Police reads: “At 11:14hrs on Thursday, 10 March, police were called to reports of a security alert at Wood Lane, White City. It was reported a suspicious item had been discovered.

“The area was evacuated as a precaution and White City and Wood Lane tube stations were temporarily closed. The incident was stood down shortly before 12:49hrs. An investigation is ongoing.”

Loose Women was also taken off air and a pre-recorded show aired instead (

Fans of the ITV show were puzzled by the change, and

“What happened to #ThisMorning,” one confused fan wrote online, as another added: “Wait what’s happened? #ThisMorning.”‘

This Morning addressed the show being off air in a tweet posted at 12.50pm.

“We apologise for the break in live programming today. We are currently running pre-recorded content and hope to be back with you soon,” they said in a post online, whilst Loose Women posted the same message on their social media channels.

It’s reported that Lorraine Kelly was unwittingly the alleged target of the ‘bomb package’.

A source close to the daytime telly star say she was the intended recipient of a box which was picked up by the network’s security staff before it could reach her – sparking a evacuation from the ITV building and closure of nearby Tube stations.

Lorraine KellyIt’s said the 62-year-old Scottish host was “very concerned” at the prospect of being a potential target – but details are yet to emerge surrounding the nature of the package which has since been removed by experts.

A source told The Sun: “Word quickly got around that whatever the box contained, it was addressed to Lorraine.

“Everyone at ITV loves her – so people were upset and very concerned over the whole incident. Fortunately everyone is safe, but it shakes everyone up.”

It is not yet known what the security incident is but two stations near the studios, Wood Lane and White City, have been closed.

“White City and Wood Lane stations closed: While the police respond to a security alert outside the station,” the tweet from Transport for London reads.

Pictures from the studio show the crew standing outside due to the nearby security incident, with photos from the scene showing a big group of people outside the Television Centre building.

Fans of the two ITV shows were left puzzled when the show went off air with no explanation.

” @thismorning Erm… what happened? Was watching and looking forward to the gadget game and the show suddenly switched to a prerecorded set. Not even a comment in the ad break to explain,” one wrote.

A second added: “@itvstudios please can you tell me what is going on, why are you showing pre recorded Loose Women and what happened to the end of This Morning.”

The Mirror have contacted both the Metropolitan Police and ITV for further information.

Loose Women stars Jane Moore and Katie Piper open up to the Mirror’s Notebook about those feud rumours, fiery debates and ‘messy’ nights out

In another world, journalist Jane Moore and TV star and campaigner Katie Piper might never have met, let alone become friends. But, as the pair tell us during our exclusive International Women’s Day shoot, that’s the real beauty of Loose Women.

Silencing rumours of behind- the-scenes tension once and for all, Katie, 38, who joined the panel in August, reveals, “Everyone’s different in their own way, and that’s what makes the show fresh each time.

“There’s nobody you dread working with as everyone’s there in their own right and brings something unique.”

Jane, 59, who helped launch the ITV show alongside Nadia Sawalha and Kaye Adams in 1999, is still enjoying the ride 23 years on.

She says, “It’s like female friendship in general – it just evolves.

“When women get together, they might talk about their marriage, their kids, or something in the news, but each time their perspective might have changed.”

The two are among a number of familiar faces who grace our screens every weekday lunchtime in a line-up that includes Charlene White, Nadia, Coleen Nolan, Denise Welch, Christine Lampard and Frankie Bridge.

Katie and Jane’s friendship doesn’t end when the cameras stop rolling. “We have a WhatsApp group and even when you’re not on the show, it’s going off,” Katie says, as mum-of-three Jane agrees.

Here, Jane and Katie, who also has two daughters, Belle, seven, and Penelope, four, with husband Richard, talk about the show’s strong sisterhood, their “messy nights” out, and keeping each other’s secrets…

Hi ladies. It’s International Women’s Day this week. What does it mean to be part of a female-centred show?

Katie: It’s brilliant that Loose Women celebrates diverse women from all walks of life. You go to work and learn something new every single show. The programmes I’d made before were documentaries where I’d been out on the road on my own, so filming live for an hour with a group of women is a different dynamic for me and I’ve really enjoyed it.

Jane: We get so many people stopping us when we’re out and about and saying, “I’ve been going through a tough time and the show really saved me” – particularly through the pandemic. I also think it’s important because I’ve done a lot of political debate shows that are male dominated, and I think we’ve heard enough of the male view. It’s nice to hear a female perspective from time to time.

Katie, you’ve recently joined. Were you nervous about sharing aspects of your personal life so publicly?

Katie: I was thrilled to be asked. I’d been a guest, so I knew that the women were welcoming and that there’s a real sense of sisterhood.

We do talk about personal experience and you know that when you sign up. But there’s no pressure. That’s another great thing about the show – it’s not scripted and you’re encouraged to bring your own experiences and opinions. I like that side of it.

ITV)As one of the original Loose Women, Jane, what keeps the show fresh for you?

Jane: One thing that’s changed – and they do keep haunting me, Kaye and Nadia, with this – is they say, “Let’s have a look at what you said 20 years ago…” Then you see yourself saying, “Well, if my boyfriend cheated on me, that’d be it, he’d be out of the door.” And now I’m a bit like, “Well, maybe one strike and then you’re out…” But who can say they haven’t changed from their twenties? We’ve evolved along with the viewers.

Do you count yourselves as friends as well as colleagues?

Katie: Yes, it’s been really nice. We all do other projects outside of the show, so when Judi Love was on MasterChef, we were all messaging saying, “I love what she’s cooking.” Or when Brenda Edwards has been on tour with Hairspray The Musical, we’ve all got tickets to go. It’s a genuine camaraderie.

Katie said she’s reluctant to share aspects of her life
Who are you closest to?

Katie: I’ve been on a real rotation, so I’ve worked with every single Loose Woman. Linda Robson and Gloria Hunniford are legends that
I grew up watching on television. Then people with a journalistic background, like Janet Street-Porter and Charlene White, who are super interesting. Nadia Sawalha’s a natural mum, Judi Love’s absolutely hilarious… But everyone’s different in their own way.

We’ve seen how you all step up and support each other when things occur behind the scenes. How important is that to you?

Jane: Very important, just like in a normal friendship. If everybody’s doing OK, then you see each other at the show and catch up. But if somebody goes through a difficult time – whatever that difficult time may be – that’s when you see the real power of female friendship.

We’ve also got quite a big pool of women now, and a lot of us are working mothers, or we’ve got elderly parents and we’re living a real life, which means that sometimes you have to take the day off at very short notice and step in for one another.

Can you give us an example of when the others have been supportive?

Jane: Gosh, many times over the years. That goes for all of us. For example, we all knew about Christine Lampard’s last pregnancy when she was about 10 weeks, and it stayed within the four walls until she decided she wanted to announce it.

And we knew about Coleen Nolan breaking up with her husband. But it’s always done with the utmost nod to when that particular person feels ready to say something.

We see you engaged in fiery debates. Are those forgotten when the cameras stop?

Loose Women’s Jane Moore
Jane: Absolutely. In the ad breaks, we’ll say, “That was a bit fiery, wasn’t it?” I have an issue when people say, “Jane Moore and Nadia Sawalha cat fight on Loose Women.” Please, come on, we’re past that. They never do it about two blokes on a news programme and it’s so lame.

Let’s move on, we’re not in the 1950s any more. But we take it in our stride and get on with it.

Do your families mind when you tell stories about them?

Katie: I’ve told the odd anecdote about my childhood, or my mum and dad, but I try to respect them when I do. My mum loves to put the show on and watch, and my dad watches, too, so I think they actually enjoy it.

Jane: I’m particularly careful about my kids because they’re of an age now where they would kill me if I said something. We always text our kids and say, “Is it OK if I say this?” They don’t choose to be in the public eye so I’ve always been very mindful of their privacy.

But my older daughter was impressed recently because I got to meet Brian Cox from Succession. We’ve also had Ariana Grande on and I quite often get messages for them, so it works quite well that way.

Who would you like to see as a guest panellist?

Jane: Adele, although we might need a four-second delay! And Victoria Beckham. I’ve met her many times and she’s a real woman’s woman. She’s a fantastic night out – great fun. Really irreverent and can tell a great story. She’s fabulous.

We’ve heard about the Loose Women nights out. What really happens when you party together?

Jane: A lot of the time, it’s organic. Someone might say, “What are you doing now?
Let’s go out.” Then it becomes a really messy evening. Or we might be really sensible and just go for a quick drink. But we’ve had some really fun nights out.

Katie: The one night out I’ve had was the National Television Awards. But I’m afraid there’s no gossip from me, I leave at 9pm to go home because I’ve got a four-year-old and I get up at 5.30am. So I’m not a big partygoer or drinker.

What’s been the best one so far, Jane?

Jane: We had a great one recently on a cinema boat around Paddington Basin. Kaye drove – and practically drove into all of the other boats – and then at the end you watch a movie. Christine came and she arrived looking pristine, as did Frankie Bridge – and then it was torrential rain. We were drenched, but we ordered another bottle of wine and laughed our way through it.

Princess Diana’s former lover James Hewitt has hit out at former BBC reporter Martin Bashir and claims he made him “the most hated man in the world”.

The former British Army cavalry officer, who disclosed a five-year extra-marital affair with Diana, which ended in 1991, has slammed Bashir for taking advantage of the late princess in a new interview.

He claims Bashir was a “toad” and tricked Diana into confirming the affair took place in the infamous 1995 Panorama interview that recently saw Bashir the subject of an inquiry.

Mr Hewitt told the Sun : “I think the chap needs to seriously search his conscience. To do it by deception is unforgivable and there is very little road back from that. I don’t know him personally, but I think any underhandedness — and particularly if it’s taking advantage of someone’s weakness and being a toad — is wrong. It did affect me and it had a huge effect.

“I hope people realise that the whole of the programme should be seen for what it was — and that was to deceive somebody into saying things and doing things that they may not necessarily have been willing to say had all the facts been known. It was not good for anybody except BBC figures and Martin Bashir’s career. It wasn’t exposing anything, it was just using lies and half-truths.”

In the infamous chat with Bashir, Diana discussed her break-up with the then-Prince Charles. She told Bashir: “Yes, I was in love with him, but I was very let down.”

A recent inquiry found Bashir used “deceitful means” to bag the interview, including drop-feeding the princess false claims about her friends and staff.

Mr Hewitt, now 66, now hopes the inquiry’s findings have given the public a better understanding of the situation and put the story in a different context.

He claims the backlash turned him into an international pariah at the time and permanently damaged his reputation. And he insists he first met Diana two years after Prince Harry was born.

Meanwhile, his dream of having children of his own has been ruined by his being known as Diana’s lover, and branded a “cad”. He told the paper it is difficult to see it happening now and he believes he was once the most hated man in the world.

Mr Hewitt has in recent years suffered some serious health issues. In 2017 he suffered a stroke after open heart surgery. He was given a 20 per cent chance of surviving after he contracted an infection which affected a valve in his heart. He was left paralysed on his left-hand side and claims it took half a year for the feeling to return.

He also suffered a septic embolism and lost a clementine-sized ball from the frontal lobe of his brain, spending five months in hospital after being told he could have died if he’d remained untreated for one more day.

An independent investigation in 2021 by Supreme Court Judge John Dyson found Bashir used deceitful methods in securing his Panorama interview with Diana.

A report into the interview concluded that Bashir acted inappropriately and in serious breach of BBC guidelines.

It read: “I have also concluded that, without justification, the BBC covered up in its press logs such facts as it had been able to establish about how Mr Bashir secured the interview and failed to mention the issue at all on any news programme and thereby fell short of the high standards of integrity and transparency which are its hallmark.”

The now infamous and explosive interview in 1995 featured Diana saying: “Well, there were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.”

She Had DRIVER Cut the Brake Lines…’ Kate Middleton Exposed Camilla’s Dark Involvement in Rigging Princess Diana’s Vehicle, Causing Her Death

In a shocking turn of events, allegations have surfaced claiming that Kate Middleton has exposed a dark secret involving Camilla, Queen Consort, and the tragic death of Princess Diana. The allegations suggest that Camilla had a driver cut the brake lines of Diana’s vehicle, leading to the fatal crash in Paris in 1997. These incendiary claims have sent shockwaves through royal circles and reignited discussions about the unresolved mysteries surrounding Diana’s death, sparking outrage and disbelief among the public and royal fans alike.

The rumors first began circulating when Kate reportedly revealed this explosive information in a private conversation. Sources close to the royal family have suggested that Kate, burdened by the weight of the royal legacy and its associated scandals, felt compelled to speak out. Her remarks were allegedly made in the context of a larger discussion about the pressures of being in the royal spotlight, where family dynamics and hidden animosities can intertwine in devastating ways.

If true, these allegations paint a deeply troubling picture of the royal family, particularly regarding Camilla’s character and her relationship with Diana. For years, Camilla has been viewed through a controversial lens due to her involvement with Charles during his marriage to Diana. This latest accusation, suggesting that Camilla could have had a direct hand in the tragic death of her rival, raises questions about the lengths to which individuals may go to protect their interests and maintain power within the royal family.

Diana’s death has been the subject of numerous conspiracy theories since it occurred, with many believing that foul play was involved. The notion that someone as high-profile as Camilla could be implicated in such a heinous act adds a sensational layer to the ongoing narrative. Such a revelation could potentially alter public perception of the royal family, particularly as it pertains to their handling of past grievances and conflicts.

The implications of Kate’s allegations could also have far-reaching consequences for her own position within the royal family. By openly accusing Camilla of involvement in Diana’s death, Kate risks alienating herself from an established member of the royal family, potentially leading to further divisions within an already complicated family dynamic. This precarious balance of loyalty and truth presents a formidable challenge, especially given the media scrutiny that accompanies any revelations within the royal household.

Furthermore, if these allegations are substantiated, they could lead to renewed investigations into the circumstances surrounding Diana’s death. The public has long sought answers, and new revelations could prompt legal or official inquiries that might uncover hidden truths or, conversely, further entrench existing narratives. The royal family has historically been adept at managing its image, but this explosive accusation could test their ability to maintain control over the narrative.

In the broader context, these claims touch upon deeper themes of power, jealousy, and the often-brutal reality of life within the monarchy. Diana was beloved not only for her charitable work but also for her relatability and vulnerability in the face of immense pressure. The juxtaposition of her tragic end against the backdrop of royal intrigue reveals the complexities of life as a public figure, where personal vendettas can have dire consequences.

As the story unfolds, public reaction has been polarized. Many have rallied around Diana’s legacy, viewing her as a martyr of royal tradition and an emblem of the struggles faced by women within the institution. Others have expressed skepticism regarding the veracity of Kate’s claims, viewing them as another sensationalized chapter in the ongoing saga of the British royal family.

In conclusion, the explosive allegations that Kate Middleton has exposed Camilla’s supposed involvement in rigging Princess Diana’s vehicle present a sensational and troubling narrative that reignites the conversation about Diana’s death. These claims highlight the complexities of family relationships within the royal household and the lengths to which individuals may go to protect their interests. As the public grapples with this shocking revelation, the need for transparency and accountability within the royal family becomes increasingly apparent. The enduring legacy of Princess Diana remains a potent reminder of the personal struggles faced by those in the public eye and the darker aspects of royal life that continue to captivate and horrify audiences around the world.

Loose Women stars Christine Lampard, Judi Love, Olivia Attwood, and Brenda Edwards, are supporting Jane Moore and GK Barry on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

The Loose Women panel have backed both Jane Moore and GK Barry to win I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! this year – but they can’t help but worry for one of them.

Jane, 62, and GK, whose real name is Grace Keeling, 25, are battling it out in the Australian jungle and both have already proved that they’re huge personalities – with GK even being nominated for the very first Bushtucker Trial.

Discussing the Loose Women stars on Monday’s instalment of the the ITV show, Christine Lampard, Judi Love, Olivia Attwood, and Brenda Edwards all said the same thing when it came to Jane.

The Loose ladies insisted that the TV star was ‘putting on a brave face’ in the jungle after she declared that she’s ‘tough as nails’. However, Christine insisted that the public will see a different side to Jane during her journey in the jungle – a much softer and warmer side.

“I feel like Jane is going to mother Grace. I think she already is. She hadn’t even met Grace, but she made sure that she was the first one she hugged when meeting everyone,” Christine gushed. Meanwhile, Judi said that while many may think that Jane is very ‘tough’, under the surface, she is very soft and very gentle.

“Jane is so compassionate, loving, warm, and I always say this, she’s a boss babe. We’ll see so many sides to her and everyone is in for a treat. She said that she’s tough as nails, but in reality she’s not that tough – she’s always got your back, she’s funny, there’s nobody else like her to be honest.”

Discussing Grace’s journey on I’m A Celebrity, the panel said that they were worried for the YouTube star after she admitted to be terrified of ‘absolutely everything’. Judi predicted that GK will now be nominated for every single challenge after her admission.

Grace is taking on the ‘Vile Volcano’ Bushtucker trial tonight in a bid to win stars for camp. Heading underground, it soon appears she’s not alone down there and the YouTube star, 25, can’t help but scream at the top of her lungs during the petrifying challenge.

The TikTok star screams for help as she goes underground and crawls inside a tiny tunnell to the find the coveted stars for her teammates to be able to eat a slap-up meal for dinner.

Grace does her best to control her nerves, but it all comes to a head when she feels red ants crawling all over her. Then, several huge spiders fall from the walls as she tries her best to navigate her way through the underground tunnel to find the show’s famous yellow stars.

The social media superstar tries to talk herself down as she repeatedly tells herself: “Everything is fine. Everything is completely fine. What is an Ant among friends.” However, her nerves are soon shot when a huge Tarantula spider drops on her head and crawls down her back.

Grace is then comforted by Ant and Dec who tell the star to ‘just breathe’. It comes after I’m A Celebrity fans reckon the YouTube star could already be in trouble after making her debut last night. The TikTok sensation 25, ended up in tears at the end of the star-studded launch show on Sunday when she was told by hosts, Declan Donnelly and Ant McPartlin that she faces a gruelling Bushtucker Trial.

 

The 90s is the new retro and it is all pre-millennium all over again.

Spice Girls back

The Spice Girls have announced they are back with their first tour for a decade.

Six UK stadium dates in June 2019 are confirmed.

No Victoria Beckham

However, it will not be a quintet as Victoria Beckham will not be taking part.

This leaves Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Geri Horner and Melanie Chisholm.

The press release said Victoria would not join the girls on tour due to “business commitments”.

She runs a multi-million pound fashion label.

In a statement, Victoria said: “Being in the Spice Girls was a hugely important part of my life and I wish my girls so much love and fun as they go back on tour, I know they will put on an amazing show and the fantastic fans past and present are going to have a wonderful time!”

Announcement on social media

Details of the reunion tour was revealed in a video on social media on Monday, Nov. 6, 2018.

The video is in the style of a news bulletin, before the foursome break out into song.

World tour to follow

The group will kick off the tour at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium on June 1, 2019, with tickets for all dates going on sale on Saturday, Nov. 10, 2018.

They will also perform in Coventry, Sunderland, Edinburgh and Bristol, finishing at London’s Wembley Stadium.

Mel B also announced on Monday that there would also be a world tour to follow, adding that she still hoped Victoria would feature in some of the shows.

“It’s just the four of us that are fully confirmed, but Vic might join us at some point,” Mel B said. “It’d be a shame if she didn’t.”

Hint of reunion

In February, the five members posted a photo to social media, saying they were planning on new projects together.

Rumours began circulating with suggestions it could be a new tour or record.

The last performance as a fivesome was at the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

The Spice Girls split in 2000 after performing for two years as a four piece, following Geri’s departure.

All five returned for a reunion tour in 2007.

But the hot sauce brand owner, budding chef and photographer recently put the record straight.

He told Grazia: ‘Obviously I am one. But I couldn’t help how I was born, at all.’

While he understands why the public can feel irked by nepo babies, Brooklyn said he tries to ignore the ‘rubbish’ people say rather than dwell on it.

He added: ‘There’s always going to be people that say rubbish. But as long as you do something that makes you happy and you’re kind to people, that’s all that matters.’

‘I’m always gonna get it, no matter what I do. And I’m fine with that. It makes me work harder, because I’m like, I’m gonna prove these people wrong.’

Brooklyn has been in the limelight since the day he was born, following in the footsteps of his famous parents Posh and Becks.

The former model announced the launch of his new hot sauce brand last month and his family have been in full support.

David shared a snap of him enjoying the sauce with his tacos, while brother Cruz posted a photo of the sauce in his burger.

Cloud 23, named after the No.23 jersey his father wore at Real Madrid and LA Galaxy, comes in two variants – Sweet Jalapeno and Hot Habanero.

‘I did my research and I just felt like there was this hole in the market with luxury condiments, especially for a really good price,’ Brooklyn told Delish magazine.

Explaining his move into condiments, he said, ‘I’ve always been a foodie. I’ve always been lucky enough to travel to different places in the world with my mum and dad. Obviously my dad with football, we lived in Madrid, we lived in LA, Milan.

‘Then Covid happened, I met my wife and started cooking for her and just fell in love with it. And now it’s just something that just takes my mind off of things.’

Brooklyn and his wife were initially linked after they were spotted in each other’s company during a Halloween party that took place in 2019.

The happy couple went Instagram official with their relationship the following January.

The pair moved quickly with their romance and announced that they had become engaged that July.

They went on to tie the knot during a lavish wedding ceremony that took place in Palm Beach in April 2022.

Brooklyn opened up about married life at the Cannes Lions International Festival Of Creativity in June.

He said: ‘It’s so important to find that one person you want to spend the rest of your life with. I married my best mate so it’s the best.’

Brooklyn also confirmed he does all the cooking and cleaning at home, saying: ‘My wife can’t cook at all.’
