Former Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter first spoke about her miscarriage last year in November with property developer Ollie Piotrowski, 32

Jorgie Porter has opened up about the moment she was told she had miscarried quadruplets.

The 34-year-old first spoke about her miscarriage last year in November with property developer Ollie Piotrowski, 32.

At the time, she said the loss of their four babies brought them closer together, saying that if they could get through this they could get through anything.

Appearing on Loose Women together today, Jorgie spoke about finding out that they were having quadruplets in the first place.

“Obviously we were happy when we got the early scan, the doctor was a bit unsure about what to tell us,” she said. “They said that we can see three sacks… then we were told that there were four sacks.”

Upon realising that they were having quadruplets, Ollie said that he “fell over”.

“It was an extreme circumstance,” Jorgie explained, revealing that because she was having a high risk pregnancy that she would go for routine scans. “On the fifth or sixth scan she said you’ve had a miscarriage.”

On the same day she discovered that she was having a miscarriage, Jorgie had to make the incredibly difficult choice about whether to miscarry naturally or to have surgery to remove tissue from the uterus.

“We went with the route of surgery because I didn’t want to witness anything,” she explained. “They said that there could have been a lot of blood loss.”

‘I felt really helpless,” Ollie said. “I was sad… it was thrown on us that it was a miscarriage… as a man, [i felt] really helpless.

“As soon as it happened, I cried and [Jorgie] stayed strong, then a week later [Jorgie] cried and I had to stay strong.”

It comes after Jorgie said last year that she wasn’t convinced she wanted to be a mum when she first got with Ollie, but seven months in everything changed.

Jorgie continued: “Ollie said he could see himself having children with me, and it was a big moment, because I felt like I absolutely wanted children with him, too.

“I remember driving to work thinking, ‘I want to come off the Pill’. I’d been dating him for less than a year, but I knew I wanted him to father my kids.”

An old friend who was once close to Meghan Markle found herself at the same LA Children’s Hospital charity event, and she did not hold back in calling Meghan out. Lizzy Cundy, a former friend of Meghan’s, is once again telling it like it is, and I’ve got to say, the guts on this woman are impressive.

I have to give props to Lizzy Cundy, who attended the same LA Children’s Hospital Gala as Meghan Markle and called her out for being there just for the photo ops. That’s right, Lizzy Cundy spilled the truth, and I’m here for it. Let’s look at the facts.For those unfamiliar, Lizzy and Meghan used to be friends. In fact, Lizzy even helped Meghan when she first came to London, trying to set her up with a London boy before she met Prince Harry. From what I understand, Lizzy was instrumental in connecting Meghan to Harry.

But once Meghan secured her royal connection, she “Markled” Lizzy—meaning she ghosted her, which is something Meghan has done to quite a few people, as we all know by now. Lizzy has remained honest, though, and hasn’t shied away from speaking her truth, unlike others who have been Markled and are scared to say anything.

**So what did Lizzy say?** At the gala event on Saturday, Lizzy noted that there wasn’t a great deal of warmth toward Meghan when she arrived. She wasn’t there long and seemed to be there just for the photos. Lizzy added, “Meghan needs LA more than LA needs her.” And let me tell you, that’s spot-on.

People in LA feel like they’ve been played by her. Lizzy, you looked stunning at the event—don’t worry about your red dress; it was perfect. But Meghan, in her crumpled, ill-fitting, re-worn dress—yikes! What was she thinking?

There’s so much truth here, I don’t even know where to begin. Meghan absolutely needs LA more than LA needs her. So many people are finally waking up to what Meghan and Harry are really about—using people, exploiting them for photo ops, and more. And I’ve got proof. Stay tuned for that later.

Lizzy’s history with Meghan goes back to 2013 when they met at a gala. After Meghan’s engagement to Harry, she ghosted Lizzy, which seems to be a recurring theme in her life. Lizzy even mentioned that Meghan had ghosted her family, so she wasn’t the worst off in that regard. Lizzy is right—Meghan uses people, and this whole event was clearly just a photo opportunity.

As we look at footage from the event, it’s easy to see that Meghan was just there for the cameras. She posed with children from the hospital, smiling for the photos, then left. The photos were later posted to Meghan and Harry’s office website to show how “good” they are for attending the event. But as Lizzy pointed out, this was all about optics.

Here’s a key question: did Meghan even donate to the hospital? While the event celebrated the hospital’s services and honored special guests like Sugar Ray Leonard and Chuck Lorre, Meghan was not one of the honorees. Yet, her presence was heavily documented, with lots of photos showcasing her involvement. Again, it’s all about the photo ops, not the actual work.All this said, I have to commend Lizzy for being brave enough to tell the truth. That’s why I’m so proud to announce a special exclusive: Lizzy Cundy will be featured in my upcoming documentary! Yes, you heard that right—Lizzy is going to be part of the project where we dig deep into Harry and Meghan’s impact, and she was an absolute pro during our interview. I can’t wait for you all to see it.

 

Lizzy was so patient and professional, and her insights are going to blow you away. This documentary is my way of challenging the narrative around Harry and Meghan—are we too harsh on them? Do we have valid reasons for disliking them? You’ll have to watch and decide for yourself, but trust me, Lizzy’s honesty is refreshing.

GB News presenter Eamonn Holmes has been taking a swipe at his old channel again. The former This Morning host walked away from ITV last year, after presenting the daytime TV show for over 15 years

Eamonn Holmes has hit out at his former employers once again.

Just weeks on from branding ITV as ‘sly’ – and igniting a feud with former collogue Phillip Schofield – Eamonn has once again let rip when chatting about his time working on the channel.

The broadcaster, 62, has claimed he wasn’t ‘treated with respect’ at ITV towards the end of his time with the station.

Eamonn co-hosted the Friday instalment of This Morning for 15 years with his wife Ruth Langsford, 61, before they were replaced on the ITV show by Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary last year.

The Irish presenter now presents the breakfast show at GB News with co-host Isabel Webster, but has been very vocal about why he bid farewell to ITV in favour of a new, controversial channel.

“I made the jump to GB News because options dried up,” Eamonn told The Guardian over the weekend.

“The ‘wrong age’, at the ‘wrong stage’ – at some point it becomes very hard to get work.”

He added: “It was obvious that I didn’t tick the boxes for ITV any more, and I wasn’t being treated with respect there.

“It was a self-esteem thing. You think: ‘Nah, I’m out of here! Bye!’ So that was it. And nothing’s changed: I play what I do straight. I’m not flying the flag for any political agenda.”

The veteran presenter then went on to state it was “nice to be appreciated” at his new place of work, GB News.

The Mirror has contacted representatives for ITV for comment.

This isn’t the first time Eamonn has lashed out at his former employers.

Last month, the dad-of-four claimed ITV made it appear that he wanted to walk away from the channel, when he had in fact been dropped.

“They’re sly. They didn’t want to announce that I’d been dropped because it would adversely affect audience figures, so they made it look as if I’d walked away from them rather than the other way round,” the journalist revealed to Daily Mail’s Weekend magazine.

“They had a chat with my agent and announced that I was going to GB News when they’d done no more than ask if I’d be interested in joining them.”

A spokesperson for ITV told the Mirror at the time: “This isn’t a version of events that we recognise and as we have said before we wish Eamonn all of the very best.”

It wasn’t just ITV bosses that Eamonn called out in his chat – former This Morning colleague Phillip Schofield also took a bashing too.

“I only had about three more words to say,” a hurt-looking Ruth said.

Speaking in his interview, Eamonn claimed “Phillip is renowned for snubbing people” and he was “hurt” by the awkward incident.

“He’s very passive-aggressive. It’s up to Ruth to say how she felt, but I was feeling hurt for her,” he confessed.

“No one would have snubbed me like that.”

 

Loose Women has been hit with 211 Ofcom complaints as viewers slammed Janet Street Porter for her comments about racism at the Ukrainian border in a heated debate with fellow panellist Charlene White

Loose Women has been hit with over 200 Ofcom complaints as the stars clashed about racism at the Ukrainian border.

Janet Street Porter and Charlene White got in a heated debate about the racism experienced by some refugees as they tried to flee Ukraine in the wake of the horrifying events happening there.

Charlene was left frustrated with Janet, with viewers convinced Janet was trying to ‘play down’ the racism some had experienced at the borders and took to Ofcom to complain over her comments.

Ofcom received 211 complaints for the segment, which aired at lunchtime on ITV on March 1

180 complaints were made in relation to comments made as the pair discussed minority ethic refugees fleeing Ukraine, whilst 33 complaints related to a discussion about racism and the crisis in Ukraine.

During the original chat, Charlene addressed the problem faced by some refugees.

Discussing what was happening in Ukraine, Charlene explained: “But there is one thing that has really shone a light on where I’m concerned, that has really stuck out to me, is that in the midst of all of this, the midst of people trying to flee from their homes, the midst of them trying to dodge bullets and bombs, they still have time for racism.

“Because you’ve got thousands of Black, Asian, Syrian, Arab students and workers who have also been trying to get out of Ukraine and have been prevented from doing so due to the incessant racism that they have experienced.

“They’ve not been allowed to go through the border into Poland from example, where they’ve been pushed back.”

Detailing refugees’ struggles, she added: “There are posters up saying no black … It really does shine a light on the fact that it doesn’t matter how devastated someone is, how scared somebody is, it seems like there’s always time for one of the worst traits of society.”

However, Janet interrupted what she was saying to praise Poland for accepting 150,000 refugees.

“I hear what you saying, and I completely understand it and on the news last night, they did show some of the students talking about how bad they were treated and the effort it had taken for them to actually get on the train and get across the border,” she added.

“But I also think Poland, for example, has exceeded all expectations in accepting 150,000 refugees.”

Charlene couldn’t believe what Janet said as she put her head in her hands.

“Oh my goodness! I understand that – but if you have thousands of refugees, you can’t stand there and say oh you 50 people come in, you four people with darker skin sorry,” she remarked as she fumed over the struggles some were facing at the border.

Chaos broke out on the Loose Women panel earlier this week when Linda Robson called co-star Carole McGiffin a ‘miserable cow’ after she shared her distaste for chatting with supermarket staff

Loose Women star Linda Robson has dubbed her co-star Carol McGiffin a ‘miserable cow’.

The 63-year-old ITV star took aim at Carol, 62, during a rather heated debate on the panel earlier this week.

Carol was sharing her about her grocery shopping pet peeves on the show when Linda interrupted to call her out on being ‘miserable’.

As the Loose ladies discussed what they like and dislike about heading to the supermarket, Carol admitted that she hates nothing more than when people at the checkout try to engage in small talk with her.

The unimpressed Loose Women panellist admitted that she despised the scenario so much that she often wished there was a separate lane for people who want to talk – and another lane for people who simply want to ‘get in and out’.

Not having any of it, Carol’s co-star piped up and labelled her a ‘miserable cow’ for not wanting to engage in small talk with the hard workers in the supermarket.

“Well, aren’t you a miserable cow,” Linda clapped back.

Carol’s admission sparked quite the debate on Twitter too as several fans flocked to agree with the TV star.

“I’m sorry, but I couldn’t agree more with Carol. I cannot stand it when people try to talk to me. Always keep my earphones in,” one Loose Women viewer tweeted.

“Carol is not a miserable cow lol. She’s absolutely right,” another echoed.

“When you’re in a bad mood and all you want is to go and buy some milk but there are no self-checkouts – don’t speak to me haha,” someone else quipped.

However, other viewers couldn’t help but agree with Linda.

“Get in the miserable lane Carol, and stay there,” one fan fumed.

“Linda is right. She is being a miserable cow,” someone else insisted.

“I don’t think I would really have an ex I would be that bothered about,” she admitted.

FROM DUCHESS TO COMMONER! King Charles Strips Meghan Of Her Royal Titles: GONE FOR GOOD

Buckle up as we dive into the captivating world of royalty, media frenzy, and the intriguing life of Meghan Markle.In a world where royal drama captures the headlines and keeps us on the edge of our seats, the latest twist involving Meghan Markle has set tongues wagging and social media ablaze. The news that King Charles has made a final decision regarding Meghan’s titles has sent shockwaves through both royal circles and the general public. But what does this mean for Meghan, her family, and her future in the UK? Buckle up as we dive into the captivating world of royalty, media frenzy, and the intriguing life of Meghan Markle.

Let’s just say that they aren’t her biggest fans, and we are not talking about her Hollywood movies or television work.

Many royal fans and critics alike have noticed that the royal family made an effort to wish Prince Harry a very happy 40th birthday but completely ignored Meghan Markle on her 43rds birthday earlier in the month. And of course, a lot of people want to know why.

This Is The Reason Why The Royal Family Is Leaving Out Meghan Markle

Apparently, there’s a reason why Meghan was left out from the birthday wishes and has not even been mentioned on any of the royal family’s social media accounts since she and Prince Harry pulled the plug on their working relationship with the royals back in 2020.

It’s being heavily speculated on social media that the royals would like to have Prince Harry back in the royal fold but simply do not want Meghan anywhere near them, let alone back in the royal family.

If that weren’t enough, a lot of people also noticed that the royals used a ‘cropped’ photo of Prince Harry for his birthday post.

However, one expert said that it is “standard practice to crop images to get singles, as has been done here.”

Royal Family News – What’s Next For Meghan Markle?

The expert also added that Meghan’s exclusion was not intentional, even though some people might have seen it that way.

Either way, the royals have made it pretty clear that they want nothing to do with the Duchess of Sussex and don’t plan on wishing her a happy birthday anytime soon, or ever at all.

For Meghan’s part, it doesn’t seem like she’s too bothered about it all.

That’s because she’s made it clear on her end as well that she has no plans to ever step foot on UK soil again, even if it’s for a royal family member’s funeral. She simply doesn’t want to be there.

So far Meghan Markle herself has not made any comments about the matter.

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.”

Fans of the ITV show were puzzled by the change, and took to Twitter wondering what happened.

“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.

Phillip Schofield has revealed he went to the pub as ITV’s This Morning was taken off air due to a security incident nearby. He shared a smiling selfie with fans on Instagram, insisting he was fine

Phillip Schofield went to the pub with his colleagues when This Morning went off air today due to a bomb threat.

The ITV live show was cut short – with emergency footage instead being aired – after an evacuation took place at the Television Centre and nearby areas due to a security incident.

The Metropolitan Police attended to deal with the incident, and as a result, This Morning and ITV’s following showhttps://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/breaking-itvs-morning-chaos-live-26434240

were taken off air, with old footage being played in its place.

Now, Phillip – who co-hosted today’s show with Holly Willoughby – has broken his silence on the incident.

“Back in my dressing room @thismorning after a security alert,” he wrote alongside a smiling selfie, “All ok and thankfully a false alarm. Thank you to our team @thisistvc and @metpolice_uk for being amazing.”

Sharing where he’d been, he also added: “I’ve been to the pub with everyone, now back to get my house keys!”

The Met Police were called to a security incident near the studios earlier today.

A statement from the police read: “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.”

Pictures from the scene showed those working at the Television Centre standing outside whilst the incident was dealt with. As part of it, the nearby tube stations were also closed.

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

The comedy star left viewers unimpressed when she rocked up as her foul mouthed nan character with fans finding her unfunny and wishing she’d been Catherine rather than her character

Loose Women fans were left cold by Catherine Tate in character as Joannie Taylor – aka her foul mouthed Nan character – as she rocked up on the panel to promote her new film.

Viewers were left cringing as they tuned into the ITV daytime show and branded the comedy queen ‘not funny’ and were left wishing 53-year-old Catherine had been interviewed as herself rather than her potty-mouthed character.

The star has a big screen outing of her grandmother character hitting cinemas at the end of the week – with ‘Nan’ from The Catherine Tate Show getting her own spin-off called Nan: The Movie.

And while the star raised some giggles by appearing on Loose Women on Monday and looking unimpressed by the panel consisting of Ruth Langsford, Nadia Sawalha, Linda Robson and Carol McGiffin – asking instead for Denise Welch and Kirsty Alsopp – overall, those tuning in were not amused.

Taking to Twitter, fans lined up to slam the actress, with one writing: “I like Catherine Tate but this isn’t funny #LooseWomen.”

Another complained: “#LooseWomen I love Catherine Tate as a person, but I must be getting old as I don’t find Nan funny anymore.”

Another viewer tweeted: “Eek. Not sure Nan can extend to a whole film…. This interview is already cringe #LooseWomen” – with another claiming there was “forced laughter” from the panel.

And another complained: “I’d have preferred to see a proper interview with Catherine Tate. #LooseWomen.”

Some viewers did, however, love Catherine’s in-character appearance.

One tweeted in approval, writing: “OMG!!!!! Absolutely howling at Nan on #LooseWomen can’t wait to see the movie. Asking for @RealDeniseWelch oh she’s a diva with @McGiff.”

Another wrote: “Nan asking where Kirsty Allsopp is [crying-with-laughter emoji] #LooseWomen.”

Catherine might have been cackling away, but most viewers were not (

ITV)And another begged: “@loosewomen please keep Catherine Tates Nan as a regular loose woman…. She would keep us all smiling.”

Catherine first introduced Nan to the world way back in 2004 when she launched her BBC sketch series The Catherine Tate Show.

Since then, the Nan character has appeared in a number of spin-off made-for-TV films – but her own big screen movie will hit cinemas on Friday.

The film will see Catherine reunited with Gavin & Stacey star Matthew Horne who returns to play long-suffering grandson, Jamie.

Fellow The Catherine Tate Show alum Niky Wardley who famously played one of Lauren ‘Am I Bovvered’ Cooper’s best friends is among the cast playing Officer Mahler.

Film director Josie Rourke has previously told Digital Spy: “I think I speak for loads of us when I say that my Gran’s spirit lives in Catherine Tate’s immortal Nan.

Some viewers, however, were desperate for Nan to be a permanent panelist on the show (

ITV)“I have loved working with Catherine over the years on stage, and it is a massive treat to put her Nan on film.

“Here’s to her Nan, my Nan, all our Nans. Let’s reclaim outrage from loathsome politicians and put it back where it belongs: with our Nans.”
