    Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan reveals dating app ‘no go’ before reuniting with Tinder love

    Loose Women star Brenda Edwards opened up on the time when she and Coleen Nolan used dating apps together

    Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan discussed her “dating standards” on Tuesday as she admitted to refusing Brenda Edward’s request when the pair used dating apps together.

    Brenda, Coleen, host Ruth Langsford and Gloria Hunniford were discussing whether height affects their choice of partners.

    Brenda explained: “When we were going through the dating app period, myself and Coleen, it was quite overbearing sometimes when she would say, ‘No, no.’ And you’re just looking at a picture.”

    “I was like, ‘Coleen, you’ve got to look at the heart of the person, you’ve got to look at what their interests are,’ but she’s just not interested.”

    Coleen hit back: “He might have a lovely heart but if he’s 4ft 10 inches I’m not going to fancy him.”

    “Have you tried somebody at your height?” Brenda asked to which Coleen replied she had and it hadn’t worked out.

    Coleen recently announced she’s reunited with her ex-boyfriend Michael Jones, who she met on Tinder two years ago.

    The Loose Woman first went public with the supermarket worker back in January 2022 before the pair called time on their relationship just three months later.

    It’s now been reported by OK! Magazine that Coleen “stayed close” with Michael and the pair have now rekindled the romance.

    An insider explained: “They are just taking things slowly, not labelling it, and just seeing what happens.

    “Coleen and Michael have been on and off since they broke up last year. In fact, you could say they didn’t completely call it off at all.”

    Earlier in the show, Coleen made a cheeky dig at Brenda as they discussed imposter syndrome.

    Host Ruth asked the panel if they had experienced this feeling with both Coleen and Brenda admitting to feeling “not good enough” over the years.

    Gloria was stunned by the revelation and praised the pair before going on to discuss her time working on the radio.

    Brenda commented: “You’ve got that voice for the radio, it’s so distinctive.”

    “You have a face for radio,” Coleen cheekily quipped to Brenda.

    The studio audience laughed but Brenda didn’t look too impressed.

    Jumping in, Ruth said: “That’s the perfect point for me to say, it’s time to take a break. Oh Col, you’re in trouble.”

    “She’s going to batter me in the break!” Coleen joked.

  • Netflix are praised for hilarious meme poking fun at THAT David and Victoria Beckham documentary moment as they declare ‘It’s coming home’ after England’s Euros win

    Netflix are praised for hilarious meme poking fun at THAT David and Victoria Beckham documentary moment as they declare ‘It’s coming home’ after England’s Euros win

    Netflix have been praised for a hilarious meme after England won their Euros semi-final match against the Netherlands in Germany on Wednesday night.

    The streaming service made reference to a now infamous moment from their BECKHAM documentary where Victoria and David had a hilarious squabble about her upper class upbringing.

    The moment in question saw Victoria, 50, attempting to say she was ‘working class’ before David, 49, swiftly pointed out that her father used to drive her to school in a Rolls Royce.

    Netflix changed the words to the famous exchange to ‘It’s coming home’ after the Three Lions’ win as they joked that they couldn’t support England due to impartiality rules.

    The UK and Ireland account captioned the post: ‘The life of an admin. #NEDENG’, as they poked fun at having to stifle their joy at the win.

    During the match England fans erupted into a frenzy after substitute Ollie Watkins dramatically clinched a winner for the Three Lions with just seconds to go before extra time.

    Ollie buried a stunning strike into the bottom left corner in the 90th minute to send Gareth Southgate’s men into Sunday’s final against Spain in Berlin.

    The striker had replaced captain Harry Kane, who had earlier equalized for England with a penalty in the first-half – cancelling out Xavi Simons’ wonderstrike after just seven minutes.

    During the match football fan Adele was seen passionately yelling at England’s rowdy crowd to ‘shut up!’ just before Kane took his penalty.

    The singer, 36, jetted to Dortmund in Germany to watch the team take on the Netherlands in their epic 2-1 win and was seen fully in the spirit of the game.

    A funny video shared on Twitter shows the tense moment just before Kane took his shot on goal after the controversial penalty was given.

    And as some excitable fans shouted behind her she was quick to swivel round and tell them to be quiet.

    While she now has a glamorous lifestyle living in LA far from her Tottenham routes and often rubs shoulders with all her celebrity friends, her cockney accent clearly shone through in the moment.

    Fans were quick to react to the hilarious moment saying: ‘SHATAPP!’ Ah we do love Adele over here’,

    ‘I love her, she’s so brutally honest!’, ‘She was so real here’, ‘This is ICONIC’, ‘let the Queen enjoy the game!’

    Adele joined Ed Sheeran, 33, cheering England to victory from the stands at the Euros semi-final.

    Adele looked tense before kick off as she showed her support to the team.

    The singer clasped her hands together nervously ahead of kick off as she kept her outfit simple with a black jacket and white T-shirt.

    Keeping her usual glam appearance despite looking focused, she wore her full face of makeup for the sporting event, while her blonde locks looked freshly blow dried.

    She wasn’t the only chart topper to attend the match as Ed was also seen in the crowds donning a red England top before the teams spectacular win.

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are seemingly set to carry out big plans but they will be doing so separately given their opposite aspirations.

    The Duke of Sussex, who has reportedly been looking at properties in the UK has seemingly made up his mind over his UK plans whether his wife Meghan Markle accompanies him or not, suggested royal commentator Kinsey Schofield.

    “I hear that Harry is both content with his new lifestyle and homesick,” she told Fox News Digital. “It just depends on the day. I’m sure Harry could get homesick, and we know that he is prone to wearing his heart on his sleeve.”

    On the other hand, Meghan is focussed on her lifestyle brand, American Riveria Orchard

    Schofield added that the Duchess of Sussex has “likely permitted him to try to establish an additional residence in the UK if that will make him happy, but I doubt she has any desire to participate in the process or visit.”

    While Harry is ready to make a move to the UK, Schofield explained that the royal

    “won’t make any drastic or financial moves until he settles his security issues.”

    Prince Harry is currently pursuing a legal battle to get back the level of security he previously had before he stepped down as a senior working royal in 2020.

    King Charles’ former butler, Grant Harrold, had previously told the New York Post that Harry had been looking at UK properties.

    Although, Schofield believes that if Harry were to move to the UK temporarily, Meghan would not accompany him for a big reason.

    “She feels rejected by the UK and that does not sit well with her,” Schofield claimed. “I don’t even think she has any desire to win them over again. Meghan is totally focused on winning over the elite in Hollywood. With jam. And dog treats.”

  • Reports of Rose Hanbury’s alleged affair vanish without a trace

    Reports of Rose Hanbury’s alleged affair vanish without a trace

    In the realm of British royalty, scandal and intrigue often intertwine with the lives of its most prominent figures. The latest chapter in this ongoing saga involves Rose Hanbury, a name thrust into the spotlight amidst swirling rumors of an affair with none other than Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.

    The saga began innocuously enough, with whispers circulating on social media and tabloid headlines speculating about a romantic entanglement between Hanbury and Prince William. Initially dismissed as mere gossip, the rumors gained traction when several prominent articles discussing the alleged affair mysteriously vanished from the internet. Questions arose: Was this the handiwork of the royal family, keen to protect its image and privacy? Or simply a coincidence in the fast-paced world of online journalism?

    Rose Hanbury in a hat

    Prior to 2024, Rose Hanbury remained relatively unknown to the public eye. However, her name surged to prominence alongside wild theories about the disappearance of Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, earlier in the year. While it was later revealed that Kate’s absence was due to a private battle with cancer, the speculation surrounding Hanbury and Prince William persisted. Despite vehement denials from Hanbury herself, asserting through her legal representatives that the allegations were baseless and defamatory, the public’s fascination with the rumored affair endured.

    The intrigue deepened as investigative reports surfaced, detailing the systematic removal and alteration of articles dating back to 2019 that had previously discussed Hanbury and her alleged involvement with the royal family. Stories from reputable outlets like The Sun and Lainey Gossip were found to have been either deleted entirely or significantly revised, leaving gaps in the digital footprint of what was once a widely discussed topic.

    The royal family, known for its cautious approach to media scrutiny, has remained tight-lipped on the matter. Prince Harry’s previous comments about an “invisible contract” between the royals and the press have only added fuel to the speculation surrounding their influence over media coverage. While no direct acknowledgment or admission of involvement in the disappearance of these articles has been made by Buckingham Palace or its representatives, the timing and nature of the alterations have raised eyebrows among observers.

    Meanwhile, Rose Hanbury has been resolute in her efforts to combat the rumors. Through legal channels, she has pursued action against media outlets and public figures perpetuating the allegations, including sending warnings to programs like “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.” Her lawyers have issued statements categorically denying any romantic involvement with Prince William and seeking to halt the spread of what they describe as unfounded and damaging misinformation.

    As the debate over the disappearance of articles continues to unfold, one thing remains clear: the allure of royal scandals and the public’s insatiable appetite for intrigue ensure that the tale of Rose Hanbury and her alleged affair with Prince William will endure in the annals of British gossip. Whether it’s a tale of palace intrigue or simply a case of coincidental editorial decisions, the fascination with the royal family’s private lives persists, shaping the narratives that define them in the eyes of the world.

    Meghan Markle is reportedly eager to mend fences with Princess Kate and has extended an olive branch. According to sources, Meghan reached out to Kate before Trooping the Color, the official celebration of the King’s birthday, where Kate made her first public appearance since announcing a break from public duties due to her cancer diagnosis.

    Sources reveal that Meghan and Prince Harry initiated contact with Kate in hopes of resolving their long-standing feud. This move comes after Harry addressed moments of discord between Kate and Meghan in his candid memoir released last year.

    A close source shared, “Meghan is determined to be seen as the bigger person and put an end to this rift between them. Mending fences and portraying herself as a peacemaker can only enhance her public image. Despite their differences, Meghan genuinely empathizes with Kate and understands the challenges she must be facing.”

    The insider continued, “Meghan has expressed her desire to move past the animosity and work towards healing for everyone involved. She is ready to let go of any lingering anger or bitterness. However, ultimately, the decision rests with Kate. All Meghan and Harry can do is continue to reach out and offer olive branches.”

    Reports suggest that Meghan and Kate’s relationship has been strained since Meghan was introduced to the royal family, with tensions escalating in the lead-up to Harry and Meghan’s wedding in May 2018.

    Allegedly, there was friction between Kate and Meghan over Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress, which reportedly led to a tearful episode for Meghan after a text message disagreement. Kate later sent flowers and an apology card to mend fences.

    The rift between Prince William and Harry reportedly deepened in 2019 following a heated argument over Meghan, where Harry claimed his brother had physically confronted him. A year later, Harry and Meghan stepped down as senior royals and relocated to Montecito, California.

    Prince Harry’s future in the US hangs in the balance as his visa application faces scrutiny, with potential repercussions for his family’s life in America. The Heritage Foundation has taken legal action against the Department of Homeland Security, seeking access to Harry’s visa records, particularly his disclosed history of drug use. The DHS has denied the request, citing privacy protections akin to those for medical records.

    Currently, the case is in the hands of Judge Carl Nichols, who is reviewing the matter privately in chambers, leaving the public and Harry waiting on whether the details will be made public. Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams discussed the implications with The Sun, noting the possible embarrassment for Harry. Meghan and Harry moved to the US in 2020 after quitting the Royal Family. Mr. Fitzwilliams remarked: “The fact of the matter is that it will be very embarrassing, or may be very embarrassing.” He further commented: “Harry may have included drug use on his application form. If he hasn’t, it will unquestionably make headlines, and that will not be beneficial so far as the Sussexes are concerned.”

    While Harry’s present visa remains valid, its renewal could pose challenges, sparking speculation about potential deportation. Such an outcome would force Harry to abandon his Montecito life with Meghan and their children, Prince Archie (5) and Princess Lilibet (2), as well as their £12 million home adjacent to an apple orchard. Mr. Fitzwilliams has raised concerns about a perceived “double standard,” stating that Harry, who has publicly criticized the Royal Family, could possibly be the one at fault, either through potential deceit in his US government clearance process or due to possible preferential treatment given. This is a matter of concern for the Heritage Foundation.

    According to The Sun, attempts were made by Harry to halt the release of his visa application details. The ongoing court case between The Heritage Foundation and others versus US Homeland Security was initiated on February 24 in Washington DC. In an exclusive discussion with the Daily Express US, Gita Gorgi, a US-based immigration lawyer, shared: “I suspect that the judge will weigh the reasons and benefits that the Heritage Foundation argued for making the information public, versus the right to Prince Harry’s privacy and DHS’s interest in keeping the information of private individuals and its matters private.”

    This legal battle could have significant implications for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, potentially affecting their Montecito mansion and their life in the United States. Stay tuned for further developments!

    London’s High Court has become the battleground for Prince Harry as accusations fly regarding his handling of evidence in a phone-hacking lawsuit against UK’s The Sun newspaper. During a recent hearing on June 27, lawyers representing the newspaper’s publisher, NGN, accused Harry of deliberately destroying crucial texts and emails, alleging his actions amount to “obfuscation.”

    Justice Timothy Fancourt expressed concern over the revelations, noting that confidential messages were reportedly destroyed even after legal proceedings had commenced. He emphasized the gravity of the situation, particularly highlighting that Harry himself conducted the search for relevant documents at his Montecito, California residence.

    “It’s rather remarkable,” Justice Fancourt remarked during the proceedings, pointing out the limited number of documents submitted thus far. He ordered Harry to make every effort to produce the remaining texts and emails or provide a detailed explanation to the court regarding the circumstances of their absence.

    Harry’s legal team defended their actions, asserting that he had gone “above and beyond” to retrieve relevant evidence but acknowledged that certain texts, especially those related to his memoir “Spare” published in 2023, were deleted due to their sensitive nature. These texts allegedly contained information deemed potentially compromising to Harry and his family’s security.

    Speculation arose as to whether Harry’s actions were aimed at protecting his wife, Meghan Markle, who reportedly played a significant role in the memoir’s creation. Sources suggest that upcoming revelations could shed light on the couple’s contentious relationship with the royal family, particularly implicating sensitive issues that were omitted from public disclosure.

    The controversy extends beyond the personal realm, potentially impacting Harry’s credibility and Meghan’s public image, especially concerning her involvement in setting the narrative of “Spare.” The stakes are high for the couple, who have already faced considerable public scrutiny and legal battles since their departure from royal duties in 2020.

    In addition to the legal ramifications, Justice Fancourt ordered Harry to cover approximately $76,000 in legal fees for NGN, underscoring the financial repercussions of the ongoing legal saga. Sources close to the couple express concern that these developments could strain their marriage further, amidst existing pressures and public scrutiny.

    As the case unfolds, all eyes remain on London’s legal proceedings, where the revelations from Harry’s deleted messages could potentially reshape public perceptions of the royal family and its former members. The outcome of this legal battle could prove pivotal for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as they navigate their post-royal lives amid mounting challenges and controversies.

  • Prince Harry’s ‘Proud Daddy’ Moment Goes Viral

    Prince Harry’s ‘Proud Daddy’ Moment Goes Viral

    The moment Prince Harry reenacted his son Prince Archie’s first steps has won praise from fans, after footage from the royal’s docuseries resurfaced on social media site, TikTok.

    Harry has spoken on a number of occasions about the pride and importance he places on his role as a father of two: Prince Archie (born in 2019) and Princess Lilibet (born in 2021).

    In 2019, weeks after the arrival of his son, the prince said that he had become aware of how important it was for him to become a strong and dependable role model for Archie. Speaking at the National Youth Mentoring Summit in London, he attributed this fresh appreciation for role models to the “newfound clarity I have as a father knowing that my son will always be watching what I do, mimicking my behavior, one day maybe even following in my footsteps.”

    Archie’s first footsteps were discussed by Harry and Meghan Markle in their eponymous Netflix docuseries which debuted in December 2022. The show charted the course of the couple’s relationship and provided fans with unparalleled access into their family life in California.

    Included in the show were never-before-seen family photos and home movies, showing Archie and Lilibet’s life milestones to date, including shots of the prince walking and talking, as well as poignant footage of Meghan showing him a photograph and speaking to him about his grandmother, Princess Diana.

    Uploaded to TikTok by user, queendianaspncer, on January 9, a clip from the Harry and Meghan series shows the couple touring the grounds of a California home owned by the Hollywood producer Tyler Perry.

    The couple spent several months at the home which was loaned to them by Perry during the COVID pandemic, after Harry’s state-funded security was removed by the U.K. government when he stepped down from his working commitments within the monarchy.

    “Archie took his very first steps right here,” Meghan said as the couple toured the grounds of the property, at which point Harry gestured to the spot and lightheartedly mimicked his son’s tentative movements. This was captioned: “Proud daddy.”

    The viral clip also included footage of Archie walking with his parents and pets, as well as kicking a ball with Harry in a sand pit.

    The video has been viewed over 110,000 times on the social media site so far and received in excess of 10,000 likes and numerous comments, many of which have praised the royals.

    “I miss them. But I’m glad they are protect[ing] themselves and their family,” wrote one user.

    “This is so cute,” posted another, with a further comment reading: “Harry is giving Archie the childhood HE wanted…great job.”

  • What Prince Harry Said About Being a ‘Better’ Pilot Than Prince William

    What Prince Harry Said About Being a ‘Better’ Pilot Than Prince William

    Prince Harry’s helicopter pilot past has seen renewed public interest this month as it was revealed on January 10 that he has been honored by the U.S. group “Living Legends of Aviation” as one of four new “legends” this year.

    The move has earned backlash, with senior ex-military members in Britain suggesting there were other pilots and aerospace professionals more worthy of the title.

    Harry’s background as a pilot dates back to his career in the British Armed Forces. He served as an Apache helicopter co-pilot and gunner during his second tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2012. The royal’s military career was discussed at length in his 2023 memoir, Spare, with Harry revealing that he killed 25 Taliban fighters during his front-line service.

    Since the news of Harry’s “Living Legends of Aviation” recognition, social media debate around the prince’s flying experience has developed, including comparisons with his older brother, Prince William, who served with the Royal Air Force and emergency air ambulance service as a helicopter pilot.

    Public interest in Harry and William’s relationship has grown increasingly since Harry split from the monarchy and moved to the U.S. with Meghan Markle in 2020. Since then, the prince has cited issues with palace aides, the British press and royal family members as influencing factors for the move.

    In Spare, Harry gave readers the most revealing insight yet into his relationship with William, describing tensions, resentments and arguments between the pair. William did not publicly respond to the claims made against him.

    Harry and William’s military careers crossed at an important point as they both trained as helicopter pilots at the Defence Helicopter Flying School located at Royal Air Force Shawbury, in northwest England, in 2009.

    While studying on the same base—William with the RAF to become a search and rescue pilot and Harry with the Army Air Corps—the brothers lived together, giving a rare joint interview about their experiences during their courses.

    The interview, given to a number of outlets in June 2009, saw the brothers take a number of fraternal jabs at one another, including William revealing frustration at having Harry as a housemate and Harry telling journalists he was a “better” pilot than his brother.

    Asked how mentally taxing the course was, Harry responded that the theory exams were what he found most challenging.

    “The struggle that I was talking about was mainly the exams and stuff like that. I mean, for the helicopter course, you start with something like four or five weeks of ground school and exams,” he said. “Exams have never been my favorite, and I always knew that I was going to find it harder than most people, but I’m through that now and finally got hands-on to a job that I absolutely adore.”

    With this, he added a subtle dig at his brother: “It is still hard work, but I’m better than William, so it’s fine.”

    William laughed off the comment and said that he’d been helping Harry prepare for his exams. “He needs a lot of help,” he said. “It’s the RAF way…So you have to help the Army out a lot.”

    Later on in the interview, after more banter between the brothers, a journalist directed a question at Harry, asking what it was like following “high-achieving” William.

    “It’s tough enough to do a course like this on your own [but] with the whole world watching and a high-achieving older brother watching, does it increase the pressure do you think?” the journalist asked.

    “I don’t think that’s quite fair,” William said in response. “He’s doing a fantastic job. He puts himself down, but genuinely, he is seriously well. I’ve spoken to his instructor and stuff like that, he’s doing a fantastic job. So, yeah, he’s just very modest about it, but he’s doing very well.”

    In Spare, Harry referenced the interview, suggesting that what appeared to be light-hearted banter could have been evidence that there were bigger issues between the royal brothers than he had at first acknowledged.

    “Maybe there was some tension under the surface between us, which I wasn’t fully comprehending,” he wrote of their time on their helicopter courses.

    “While sharing that cottage we agreed to a rare joint interview, in an airplane hangar at Shawbury, during which Willy griped endlessly about my habits. ‘Harry’s a slob,’ he said. ‘Harry snores.’ I turned and gave him a look. Was he joking? I cleaned up after myself, and I didn’t snore. Besides, our rooms were separated by thick walls, so even if I did snore there was no way he heard.”

    “The reporters were having fits of giggles about it all, but I cut in: ‘Lies! Lies!’ That only made them laugh harder. Willy too,” he said. “I laughed as well, because we often bantered like that, but when I look back on it now, I can’t help but wonder if there wasn’t something else at play.”

    On reflection, Harry questioned whether there was resentment from William that he wasn’t allowed to take part in active duty as Harry was.
