    Andrea McLean’s life after Loose Women – money woes, ill health and third marriage

    Since walking away from her lucrative gig on Loose Women in 2021, Andrea McLean has thrown herself into her business with second husband alongside juggling health battles and worries about her finances

    Andrea McLean ‘s life since quitting Loose Women hasn’t always been smooth sailing.

    The broadcaster decided to walk away from the ITV panel show after 13 years after experiencing a nervous breakdown and living through a global pandemic forced her to reconsider her priorities.

    Earlier this week, the 53-year-old issued a health update to her fans as she admitted her illnesses have left her bedridden for days at a time after pushing her ‘tired body’.

    Fans praised Andrea for speaking openly about her health struggles on Instagram, but this isn’t the first time the Scottish star has been candid about the harder aspects of her life.

    Money struggles

    Last year, Andrea admitted quitting Loose Women severely impacted her bank balance – with the star missing out on just more than a salary from ITV.

    She explained that although she had factored in the loss of her anchor salary as the ‘breadwinner’ she suffered an unexpected financial setback when the plug was pulled on cash she earned from brand endorsement deals.

    Speaking on the Secure The Insecure With Johnny Seifert podcast, she said: ‘When I made the announcement I was leaving TV to follow my heart and dreams, go all in on This Girl is On Fire, obviously we put a lot of planning into this moment because obviously it’s a huge jump.

    The mum-of-two lost multiple brand deals just weeks after quitting
    “I was the breadwinner and this was the job that was paying the bills but everyone in TV does jobs as well.”

    Andrea then revealed that she and husband Nick Feeney discussed in depth the logistics of her huge career change as she pursued her own path penning a motivational book about her experiences.

    She said: “I had enough corporate work lined up that was going to keep the funds coming in before I wrote This Girl’s On Fire and get traction so it was a calculated decision.

    ”On the day that I announced I was leaving, every brand dropped me… so I went from, ‘OK I knew I had this amount of money coming in and this much work that will see me through to the next six to eight months,’ it disappeared overnight.

    ”That’s how big a deal moving away from TV is. It was financially like a punch in the stomach, my safety net was gone. I was like, “Oh my god I only have my savings. I can’t turn back and change my mind. I have no over income.”

    House sale

    One month on from quitting Loose Women in 2021, Andrea revealed how hard the decision had been for her and admitted she agonised over the decision for months.

    In an interview with OK! Magazine she explained how she and husband Nick prepared for the worst before she broke the news she was walking away from the ITV panel show.

    “It took months of thinking about it. We were preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. Nick and I sat down and wrote what we needed to prepare for,” Andrea recalled in 2021.

    “Worst case – we would have to sell the house. Best, the This Girl Is On Fire membership and website we’ve set up works and we’re successful with that.”

    Andrea and Nick now both work full time on their joint venture, with Nick’s daughter also on board.

    Third marriage

    Andrea is now happily married to Nick, with the pair even running a successful business together, but the broadcaster was once embarrassed about the fact her current beau is her third husband.

    The mum-of-two was previously married to BBC producer Nick Green, with whom she shares son Finlay with, but the pair called it quits when Andrea found love with fellow Our House presenter Steve Toms.

    Steve and Andrea welcomed daughter Amy into the world November 2006 but split in 2012, just three years on from tying the knot.

    Andrea tied the knot for a third time with current husband Nick in 2018 after four years of dating – with the former Loose Women confessing she didn’t expect to find love again.

    “I never thought I’d feel like this again, that I’d fall in love and get the chance to start a new life,” she told HELLO! magazine shortly after marrying Nick.

    “It’s been a revelation to him too. And because we make each other so happy, it’s changed our lives. So many people have commented on how much more positive I’ve become since I met him. Thanks to Nick, I’m no longer looking backwards, I’m looking forwards.”

    Health battles

    In a lengthy post shared on Instagram this week, Andrea candidly told how her health woes have left her bedridden over recent days as she updated her 301,000 followers.

    Andrea confessed that she has been left suffering with exhaustion and is awaiting test results.

    Alongside a selection of images of her and husband Nick, another picture with her mum and a final snap of her beloved dog, Andrea penned: “Things I did to fill my cup this week, that weren’t to do with work…

  • King Charles Has Private Meeting with David Beckham After Being Unable to Meet with Son Prince Harry: Report

    King Charles Has Private Meeting with David Beckham After Being Unable to Meet with Son Prince Harry: Report

    PEOPLE confirmed earlier this week that Prince Harry and the King would not meet this week due to the sovereign’s schedule

    King Charles reportedly had a private meeting with David Beckham after being unable to meet with his son Prince Harry during his visit to the U.K. earlier in the week.

    According to The Times, the former England football captain, 49, met the King, 75, for a “private meeting” on Friday.

    “Beckham is understood to have visited Charles to learn more about his charity, the King’s Foundation,” the outlet added.

    PEOPLE understands that the Duke of Sussex invited his father, King Charles, his brother, Prince William and his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, to his celebratory Invictus Games event on Wednesday, May 8, which they did not attend. The Princess of Wales, 42, is outside of the public eye while receiving cancer treatment, while Prince William, 41, conducted investitures at Windsor Castle on May 8.

    King Charles recently resumed forward-facing duties while receiving cancer treatment, and hosted the first garden party of the season at Buckingham Palace on May 8. The party coincided with the Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London for the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games, which Prince Harry launched in London in 2014.

    It emerged earlier this week that Prince Harry, 39, wouldn’t be able to meet with his father the King during his time in the U.K. due to the monarch’s “full” schedule.

    “In response to the many inquiries and continued speculation on whether or not The Duke will meet with his father while in the U.K. this week, it unfortunately will not be possible due to His Majesty’s full program. The Duke of course is understanding of his father’s diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon,” a spokesperson for the Duke of Sussex said on May 7.

    The timing could have aligned for Beckham and the King to meet at his Highgrove home, as the monarch was seen leaving Windsor Castle en route to Highgrove, Gloucestershire on May 10. The area is home to the King’s beloved country home Highgrove House, which has been a respite for the royal since he bought it in 1980.

    Beckham received his OBE from Queen Elizabeth for services to soccer in 2003 and has socially known the royal family for years, having attended the royal weddings of both Prince William and Kate Middleton in 2011 and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in 2018 with his wife, Victoria Beckham. Like many Brits, Beckham stood in line for 12 hours in London to pay respects to the late Queen Elizabeth when her coffin laid in state at Westminster Hall following her death in September 2022.

    Why the Royal Family Did Not Attend Prince Harry’s Invictus Games Service in London

    On May 9, King Charles made his first solo engagement since resuming his royal duties at the Royal School of Military Engineering.

    Before his Invictus-related trip, which was highlighted by a panel on May 7 and the Service of Thanksgiving on May 8, Prince Harry was most recently in the U.K. to visit his father following Buckingham Palace’s announcement of the sovereign’s cancer diagnosis in February.

    The Duke of Sussex then traveled to Canada for the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025’s One Year to Go celebration with his wife Meghan Markle, and revealed in an interview there that he hoped to see his father as much as possible.

    When Good Morning America’s Will Reeve asked Harry about how he first learned of his father’s cancer diagnosis, he replied, “I spoke to him. I jumped on a plane and went to go see him as soon as I could.”

    “Look, I love my family. The fact that I was able to get on a plane and go and see him and spend any time with him, I’m grateful for that,” Prince Harry said. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex relocated to her home state of California after stepping back from their royal roles in 2020, and live there with their children Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 2.

    As for whether King Charles’ diagnosis could have a “reunifying effect” on the royal family, Harry, who spent time with Invictus Games competitors and their families at the countdown kickoff, said: “Absolutely. Yeah, I’m sure. Throughout all these families, I see it on a day-to-day basis, the strength of the family unit coming together.”

    Following the Duke of Sussex’s solo trip to the U.K. for the Invictus Games anniversary, he and Meghan arrived in Nigeria on May 10 for their first international tour since stepping back from their royal roles.

    The couple are in the country at the invitation of the Chief of Defense Staff, Nigeria’s highest-ranking military official, and the busy itinerary highlighting Invictus continues on May 11 and May 12.

    The Inter Miami FC co-owner officially welcomed the Argentine legend to his team in July this year

    David Beckham, 48, managed to bring one of the biggest international athletes stateside, and the magnitude of that feat is hardly lost on him.

    In July, the former soccer player and co-owner of Inter Miami FC officially welcomed Lionel Messi, 36, to the South Florida-based soccer club, and he’s been on cloud nine since. Of course, getting a player of Messi’s caliber to sign didn’t come easy, as the Argentine soccer legend was in high demand.

    “We always knew there would be competition,” Beckham told The Times of London. “The time I got a bit worried was when Barcelona showed interest. The club obviously pulls on his heartstrings and he never really got to say the goodbye he deserved there,” he said of Messi, who played for Barça for 17 seasons.

    However, the stiff competition didn’t dissuade Beckham, who managed to snag the soccer superstar for just over $20.4 million, per CBS News. “It still gives me goosebumps,” he told The Times of London of the moment he found out Messi would be coming to Inter Miami.

    Though soccer (known elsewhere as football) is massively popular globally, it’s only recently rose to prominence in the U.S. Beckham and Thierry Henry are some of the noted international players who have signed to Major League Soccer teams in an effort to bring more visibility to U.S.-based teams. So, onboarding a player as prolific as Messi was also a strategic move for the Inter Miami owner.

    “I said, ‘How many elite athletes have had the opportunity to change a sport in a country?’ It is transformational for the sport in the United States,” Beckham told The Times of his initial pitch. “This is just the beginning. His presence, medium to long-term, will prove that this league belongs among the world’s best leagues over time.”

    This is hardly the first time Beckham has been open about his reverence for Messi.

    In July, when the superstar officially joined the Inter Miami team, Beckham introduced Messi to a sold-out crowd at DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida — and called Messi’s arrival a “dream come true.”

    “Ten years ago, I started my journey to build a new MLS team,” Beckham said, per ESPN. “I said then, I dreamt of bringing the best players in the world to South Florida and to the great city of Miami. Players who shared our ambition to grow soccer in this country … We are so happy that you are all here to celebrate this incredible moment.”

    He continued, “So please forgive me for feeling a little bit emotional tonight. It truly is a dream come true to welcome Lionel Messi to Inter Miami … Bienvenido a La Familia.”

    Beckham was also seen singing the soccer player’s praises in the trailer for Messi Meets America — an Apple TV+ docu-series that gives an “inside look” at the latest chapter of Messi’s life and career. “This is one of the greatest players in the world,” Beckhman states.

    Midsomer Murders replaced in ITV schedules by another crime drama – despite star’s plea to bosses

    ITV has announced a scheduling shake-up, much to the disappointment of Midsomer Murders fans.

    The latest series of the popular murder mystery show concluded on Tuesday night.

    The final episode followed the strange case of a bakery which was selling bread that turned out to be poisoned.

    With the bakers pleading their innocence, DCI John Barnaby and DS Jamie Winter were left struggling to track down the person responsible for the lethal loaves.

    It has now been confirmed that another ITV crime drama will fill Midsomer Murders’ slot in the TV schedule.

    Vera, starring Brenda Blethyn as DCI Stanhope and Kenny Doughty as her former sidekick Aiden Healy, will be aired next Tuesday night instead.

    The upcoming installment is a set to be a repeat episode that was screened earlier this year.

    It sees the beloved Detective Chief Inspector called to investigate the death of a young woman whose body washed up on the banks of the River Tyne.

    Her murder was a shock to the local community, as the victim was popular in her workplace, and loved by friends and family.

    Vera has to untangle a web of lies and learn about secret betrayals to discover the woman’s killer.

    Midsomer Murders star Neil Dudgeon, who plays leading man DCI Barnaby, previously begged show bosses to release more than one episode of the crime drama at a time.

    He warned that the series is bound to lose viewers if big gaps are left between each installment, pointing out that no show is bulletproof.
    ITV slammed by viewers after slapping Midsomer Murders with a trigger warning
    Neil added: “Some years ago, ITV decided to schedule single episodes, or just two episodes from a series, so that Midsomer could take on rival shows on the other side.

    “I think this is a shame. For an audience with any programme, they like to know when their show is going to be on, say, for the next four weeks. But they stopped doing this some time ago.

    “It would be nice if it went out as a series again.”

    Crime dramas on ITVX

    Crime drama buffs have a wide selection of choices on ITVX – here is a selection of some of the programmes available to binge.

    Red Eye: Starring Richard Armitage, Jing Lusi and Lesley Sharp star in this six-part thriller, which mostly takes place  during an all-night flight between London and Beijing. With dead bodies piling up and a mystery to unravel, the heroes must work fast to get to the truth.
    The Twelve: This Australian drama originally aired as a miniseries in 2022, with the episodes dropping in the UK in February 2023. Four months later, the show was renewed for a second season. Jurassic Park star Sam Neill stars in the leading role of barrister Brett Colby.

    Victoria Beckham stuns fans as she shows off her smooth complexion while shirtless David Beckham flaunts his muscular physique on their £16million yacht in Italy

    Victoria Beckham stunned fans on Thursday as she shared a series of snaps showing off her smooth complexion.

    Former Spice Girl Posh, 50, posted a loved-up snap to Instagram with her husband David, 49, as they cruised down the Amalfi Coast on their £16million superyacht.

    Former footballer David made the most of the sunshine as he stripped down to his green swimming trunks, showcasing his muscular tattooed physique.

    Meanwhile, fans rushed to comment on Victoria’s youthful appearance, with one penning: ‘Victoria looks 15’;

    Others said that Victoria and her daughter Harper, who turned 13 earlier this month, looked like sisters.

    ‘Fountain of youth’; ‘Her skin!’

    ‘On the first picture Victoria is Harper!!! Like mummy like daughter’

    She captioned the post: ‘Happy summer!!! Creating memories and sharing special moments. I love you all so much!!!’

    David also took to his Instagram with a selection of snaps from their time away as he gushed over spending time with his family.

    Sharing a group family shot of their five of them together as dinner, he penned: ‘Fun family summer we miss u Bust & Nicola. I love these moments of memories , I love you all’.

    The couple have been travelling around Italy this week, sailing around the Aeolian Islands before heading to Nerano.

    They traded in their £5million yacht for the much bigger vessel back in March and have been pictured on it sailing around Miami.

    The impressive looking vessel, understood to be worth £16million, was a significant upgrade on the comparatively modest 100-foot yacht reportedly purchased by Beckham in 2022 .

    The football legend was said to have ‘treated himself’ to his original vessel in 2022 after being inspired by his maritime jaunts with close friends Sir Elton John and David Furnish – who often holiday at sea.

    A source told The Sun at the time: ‘David had a look around some yachts in the summer, and decided to treat himself. He helped design the boat himself, and has been incredibly hands-on with everything.

    ‘It’s not an oligarch-style super-yacht, but it’s still pretty plush by anyone’s standards. He was inspired after holidaying with Elton and David on their boat – and loves life on the water.

    ‘There will be an area for the kids to snorkel, and the boat will be a brilliant base for the whole Beckham clan to have magical holidays abroad.’

    It comes after Victoria hilariously called out her husband David for apparently making her look ginger in one of their latest snaps together.

    The couple enjoyed a romantic meal together at a stunning vineyard in France on Tuesday.

    Midsomer Murders viewers seriously $h0cked after spotting major change to fan-favourite

    Midsomer Murders viewers seriously distracted after spotting major change to fan-favourite – but did you notice?

    MIDSOMER Murder fans have remarked on the astonishing change they noticed in one character after tuning in to season 23.

    The transformation left viewers curious about how much time is passing in between each season.

    As DCI John Barnaby (Neil Dudgeon) and his partner DS Jamie Winter (Nick Hendrix) prepared to take on a new investigation, people pointed out something strange about one of the characters back in the village.

    Detective Barnaby’s daughter Betty was only a toddler in season 22.

    However, she has now sprouted up and can be seen in a school uniform having her hair braided before class in one scene.

    One viewer joked: “Betty must be the fastest-growing child in human history.”

    Another pondered: “If ever I needed proof that there’s always such a gap between episodes of Midsomer Murders, it’s seeing how Barnaby’s daughter has gone from literal toddler to schoolgirl in a matter of no episodes at all.”

    A third agreed: “I get the feeling a lot of time has passed (narratively) since the last Midsomer Murders. 5-10 years, in fact. Everyone looks much older including Betty!”

    Fans of Midsomer Murders were delighted to see the second installment of the series back on screens after its release was delayed because of the Euros.

    In the episode, ex-cop Damian Bennet (Gary Beadle) was found dead after being suspected of stealing cash from a robbery bust.

    Bizarrely,  Barnaby and Winter end up solving the complex case – thanks to a sample of chicken poo.

    One of the leading stars of the murder mystery recently called for ITV bosses to make a change to the show.

    ITV slammed by viewers after slapping Midsomer Murders with a trigger warning
    Neil Dudgeon said that the broadcaster is letting fans down by taking so long to screen each episode.

    He added: “I think this is a shame. For an audience with any programme, they like to know when their show is going to be on, say, for the next four weeks. But they stopped doing this some time ago.”

  • Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s lie about chasing paparazzi in New York has been exposed to the entire Hollywood world by Whoopi Goldberg, and the cast’s reaction was not unexpected by the star of ‘The View’

    Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s lie about chasing paparazzi in New York has been exposed to the entire Hollywood world by Whoopi Goldberg, and the cast’s reaction was not unexpected by the star of ‘The View’

    In a recent development that has captured significant attention in Hollywood, Whoopi Goldberg has publicly expressed skepticism about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s claims of a “near catastrophic” car chase by paparazzi in New York City. The incident, which reportedly took place on May 16, involved the couple and Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland. According to a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the pursuit lasted over two hours and involved several near-collisions with other drivers, pedestrians, and even two NYPD officers.

     

    However, Whoopi Goldberg, speaking on “The View,” questioned the plausibility of such a high-speed chase occurring in New York City. Goldberg remarked that the city’s traffic conditions make sustained car chases highly unlikely. She humorously noted that if car chases were feasible in New York, “we’d all make it to the theater on time”.

    Goldberg’s comments reflect a broader skepticism among some who believe that the couple may have exaggerated the severity of the incident. She suggested that such dramatic descriptions are more fitting for cities like Los Angeles, known for its high-speed pursuits.

     

     

    This incident has prompted a wave of caution among celebrities when discussing Meghan Markle. Many in Hollywood are now more careful, likely due to the polarized opinions surrounding the couple and the potential for backlash when taking sides. The skepticism voiced by Goldberg and others adds to the ongoing debate about the challenges faced by high-profile figures in maintaining their privacy and safety amidst relentless media scrutiny.

    As the conversation evolves, it highlights the delicate balance celebrities must navigate between sharing their experiences and managing public perception, especially in an era where media narratives can quickly sway public opinion.

  • Beckham shook his head in frustration when Victoria shared ‘important’ rule for a successful and damage-free marriage, why?

    Beckham shook his head in frustration when Victoria shared ‘important’ rule for a successful and damage-free marriage, why?

    Victoria Beckham has opened up about the secret to her long-lasting relationship with David Beckham as the pair mark 25 years of marriage in July.

    In the world of showbiz where heightened pressures of fame can take a toll on a relationship, the couple continue to prove that true love does exist.

    Speaking in a new interview, Victoria shared that she loves David more than ever before as she praised her “supportive” spouse in a chat with, American actress turned businesswoman, Gwyneth Paltrow.

    Gushing over their relationship, the 50-year-old said: “I love him more now than when I first met him.

    “We have grown together and I feel very thankful and grateful that I’ve done so much in my career and given so much to my children,

    but it hasn’t been at the compromise of my relationship. It’s like a juggling act when you’re trying to work and be a mum and be a wife.”

    The couple, who tied the knot in 1999, are parents to four children; Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and 12-year-old Harper. With a packed schedule including managing her two businesses, home and family commitments, Victoria said making time for one another is important amongst the chaos.

    On the Goop podcast, she continued: “We like to do that (trips), we like to spend as much time together as we can. It’s important, when we’re in London as a family we make sure we’re always eating dinner together.

    “Us and the children and talking about our day. It’s basic things like that which I think are really important.”

    27 years into their relationship, Victoria went on to say that she and David, 49, still very much enjoy each other’s company and often work out together.

    Gushing further, she continued: “I think we have so much respect for each other’s careers and passions.

    “I couldn’t do what I do if I didn’t have a husband who is so supportive.

    “He has supported me on so many levels and I do the same for him.

    “I want to make him feel like the best version of himself and he does the same for me.”

    Of what also helps their marriage stay strong, Victoria said the pair “share the same values”, have “a lot of fun together” and are on the same page when it comes to parenting.

    The pair are no strangers to expressing their love for each other on social media, most recently when it was Victoria’s 50th.

    Taking to his Instagram page at the time, David shared a montage of unseen pictures and videos of his spouse from over the years along with a cheeky comment.

    Gushing over his “beautiful wife”, the former footballer shared: “As you head into this birthday you should look back and be proud of what you have accomplished, achieved & what you have built, Posh spice, business woman & of course marrying an England captain,” alongside a crying with laughter emoji.

    He continued: “But your biggest success are your children, you guide them, love them & teach them… They love you beyond words, we all love you so much x Have a special day you deserve it all.”

    David went on to say his wife was “50 and fit” and added: “I AM BEING HONEST.”

    The phrase refers to the humorous viral moment from his Beckham documentary in which David encouraged Victoria to “be honest” about which car her dad drove her to school in, after she claimed she was working class.
