Loose Women presenter Denise Welch has made her feelings about Queen Consort, Camilla Parker Bowles very clear ahead of King Charles’ Coronation on May 6

Denise Welch has branded King Charles’ wife Camilla a “side piece” in a savage rant against the royals.

The Loose Women presenter, 64, admitted she wasn’t ‘enthusiastic’ about the Coronation on May 6, in which both Charles, 74, and Camilla, 75, will be crowned at Westminster Abbey

“I’m not particularly a Camilla fan,” Denise revealed on Loose Women. “The fact is I just think she was there from the beginning of his marriage to Diana and I think it’s disrespectful to Prince Harry and… and I can’t get over that she was the side piece.

“I feel like [for] a lot of people, the monarchy isn’t the same since the Queen died.”

The former Coronation actress added she was “trying to get some enthusiasm for the coronation and I haven’t got any.”

Denise’s comments come amid reports Harry and Meghan risk facing “monumental cold shouldering” at the King’s Coronation, as plans for the big day have finally been revealed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are still yet to decide whether they will attend the celebration, but they’ll have to make their mind up soon.

Royal expert and commentator Daniela Elser has warned the couple will have to accept “a B-list part in proceedings” if they do attend.

“Being spurned by your brother, sister-in-law and pretty much everyone aside from an inconsequential cousin or two, with every moment caught on camera for our home-viewing delectation, sounds about as enjoyable as going to one of the Duchess of York’s book readings.

“Even if they can stomach the monumental cold shouldering, they then face having to accept a B-list part in proceedings,” she wrote in news.com.au.

The Coronation falls on the same day as Prince Archie’s birthday and Harry is said to be concerned about how the tot’s special day will be celebrated.

It is believed the three-year-old prince and his sister one-year-old Princess Lilibet have not even been invited to the Coronation, with sources citing that the children are “very young”.

But royal insiders claim Netflix stars Harry and Meghan have been in conversations with the Palace about whether they’ll attend, which seem promising – but there is a “time crunch”.

The cut-off point for RSVPs has reportedly passed, but still no decision from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex has been revealed, which is said to be causing a major headache for organisers.

However, according to The Times, the Sussexes are set to reveal their intentions “within days”.

David Dickinson has rubbished claims he’s set to leave Dickinson’s Real Deal as he revealed fans can expect a new series of the ITV show sooner than we thought

David Dickinson has slammed claims he’s set to leave Dickinson’s Real Deal – and revealed a new series is in the works.

The antiques expert and presenter has fronted the show for several years but recently, it was reported that he would be retiring and quitting the ITV show. However, David has now denied that is the case and confirmed when fans can expect a new series.

Dickinson’s Real Deal airs on weekday afternoons on ITV, and during an appearance on Loose Women today, hosted by Kaye Adams, Sunetra Sarker, Jane Moore and Coleen Nolan, David confirmed they would be back filming as early as next week.

Speaking on the ITV lunchtime show, he said: “Fake news as Donald Trump would say! Standing down? My agent said we know nothing about it, I know nothing about it. All I can tell you is, a week on Saturday we are filming series 19 and it’s going fantastically well. Over a million, as I’m sure your show does very well too and is very popular.”

A source previously told the Mail Online that David was leaving the show and that it was an open secret.

“It’s an open secret on Dickinson’s Real Deal that David will be leaving the show after filming the upcoming series. He’s absolutely adored fronting the show,” the insider shared.

“It’s been a huge success for the channel and viewers still love it 16 years after it launched.”

However, a spokesperson for David confirmed to The Mirror that he wasn’t going anywhere: “David has no plans to retire from Dickinson’s Real Deal, a show he still very much enjoys making, and is hugely looking forward working on the upcoming series.”

David has fronted Dickinson’s Real Deal for several years
David previously fronted BBC’s rival antiques show Bargain Hunt from 2000 until 2004, but begin his stint on ITV hosting Dickinson’s Real Deal since 2006, which he has fronted ever since, joined by other antiques experts.

An ITV spokesperson said: “The current series of Dickinson’s Real Deal is in production and filming throughout spring and summer. No decisions have been made on future series beyond that.”

The speculation surrounding David’s position on the ITV show came after it was revealed that Dickinson’s Real Deal expert Cheryl Hakeney has quit her job on the ITV show to work with her Love Island daughter.

Cheryl regularly appears alongside David on the ITV lunchtime show, where she parts with her cash to buy some of the public’s best offerings of antique items they’ve found in their home.

Of her decision to leave, she said: “I did the show for 14 years. I was one of the originals but now mine and Zara’s business is booming, unfortunately I don’t have enough time to film the next series.”

Debbie McGee opened up to the Loose Women panel on Monday about being alone after the death of husband Paul Daniels

Debbie McGee joined Loose Women on Monday to discuss her latest TV project as she opened up on feeling lonely after the death of her husband and magician Paul Daniels.

The Strictly Come Dancing star visited Northern Ireland for the BBC ‘s B&B by the Sea but admitted she struggled at first with the idea of going on holiday on her own.

She told Denise Welch, Janet Street-Porter, Gloria Hunniford and host Kaye Adams : “One of the things I was a little bit concerned about is I’ve never holidayed on my own. I’ve got used to being on my own but I don’t choose it, it was thrust upon me.

“I’m so lucky I’ve got a close family, I’ve got lovely friends that invite me on holiday with them but I’ve never chosen to go on my own so I was a bit worried, although you’re with a film crew, of waking up and it just being me.”

“For all those years I always had my rock there, Paul, who woke me up with a joke most mornings so I wondered how I’d feel waking up in this place that was right out in the sticks really on my own.”

The Loose Women panel quizzed Debbie on how she has learnt to live with grief after the heartbreaking loss of her husband.

“What’s kept me going is how lucky I was to have him in my life,” she remarked.

The panelists went on to talk about how she pushed herself out of her comfort zone to join the Strictly Come Dancing line-up in 2017.

The widow finished as a runner-up with Ballroom and Latin dancer Giovanni Pernice.

Reflecting on the experience, she revealed she was nervous to let people see the real her away from her late husband before praising the experience.

“People had just seen me as Paul’s sidekick and I allowed him to be the [centre of attention],” she added.

Meanwhile, Debbie previously admitted she hadn’t ruled out finding love again if the right person came along.

She told the How To Be 60 with Kaye Adams: ‘If I met somebody that I had real charisma with, then I’m not going to say no and push them away. I don’t know how much longer I’m going to live and I believe in enjoying every day as much as you can. But until now I just haven’t met that person. So, if there’s somebody out there, I believe life will bring me to them at the right time, but I don’t feel there’s a void. I love my life so I’m just enjoying each day for what it brings me.”

Meghan Markle Faces Security Call After $2K Bill Dispute at Restaurant

Meghan and Harry have firmly established their lives in California since stepping away from their royal duties. One of the perks of living in LA is having access to some of the best restaurants in the world. According to insiders, one of Meghan’s favorite dining spots has been the upscale Italian eatery, Luna, in Santa Barbara, run by celebrity chef Massimo Faretti.

Luna is renowned for its rustic charm, authentic cuisine, and its discreet service for a wealthy and famous clientele. Meghan was reportedly a regular visitor, often dining privately with friends in a secluded room away from prying eyes. However, staff have noted that she frequently displayed diva-like behavior, making extravagant demands and treating the waitstaff as if they were her personal servants.

Things came to a head this past weekend when Meghan and a group of twelve friends arrived unannounced for a birthday dinner. They racked up a bill of over $2,000 with high-end wines, imported cheeses, and multi-course meals, all while micromanaging and complaining about the service.

By the end of the evening, tensions were running high. When Massimo personally delivered the eye-watering bill to Meghan’s private room, he expected the usual swift resolution with her signature and credit card. To his surprise, Meghan refused to pay, claiming the charges were inaccurate without providing any evidence or engaging in further discussion.

Massimo, visibly frustrated, reminded her that his restaurant was not a charity and accused her of entitlement. The situation quickly deteriorated into a public shouting match, unlike anything seen before at the usually refined establishment. Meghan was overheard angrily proclaiming that Massimo didn’t know who she was and threatening to tarnish his reputation on social media if forced to pay.

As the altercation escalated, other diners looked on in shock. Security was eventually called to handle the situation. Meghan reportedly left in tears, escorted to her awaiting SUV by bodyguards before the police arrived. Massimo was left fuming over the disrespect and humiliation he faced in his own restaurant from an entitled patron.

As the details of the incident went viral, a spokesperson for Massimo Faretti’s Luna issued a statement confirming the altercation and noted that the bill remains unpaid. They also made it clear that Meghan is no longer welcome at any of their establishments worldwide due to the unsafe and anxiety-provoking environment she created with her behavior that night.

While dealing with the toxic entitlement of high-profile individuals is never easy, I side with the restaurant in this case. One should not dine and dash on a $2,000 meal without expecting consequences—royal status or not. The law applies equally to everyone, and basic decency requires settling your debts gracefully instead of mistreating those who provide luxury services. This incident serves as a stark reminder that fame, wealth, or social status cannot exempt anyone from the rules and norms that govern us all, and it further damages any narrative of self-victimization that might be spun. Only time will tell how this affects Meghan’s reputation.

Loose Women announced they will be embarking on their first-ever tour. The panellists will be hitting 16 theatres across England, Scotland and Wales

It will start at Birmingham Symphony Hall on September 1 and will end at the end of the month.

Famous venues include the London Palladium and the Opera House in Manchester.

Joining the live panel will be stars Brenda Edwards, Charlene White, Christine Lampard, Dame Kelly Holmes and Denise Welch.

Other panellists making an appearance include Frankie Bridge, Gloria Hunniford, Jane Moore, Janet Street-Porter, Judi Love, Katie Piper, Kaye Adams, Kelle Bryan, Linda Robson, Nadia Sawalha and Sunetra Sarker.

The news was revealed on Tuesday’s edition of the ITV show.

Loose Women Editor Sally Shelford said: “We’re delighted the show is hitting the road for the first time with Loose Women Live!

“Having a live audience is such an important part of Loose Women and we can’t wait to be able to bring the show directly to our viewers in this way.”

The Loose Women discuss everything from politics and life to sex and controversial opinions.

Ben Hatton, Director of Theatre Touring for Cuffe and Taylor, stated: “This is going to be a fantastic tour.

“Loose Women has been broadcast into millions of homes daily for more than 20 years and we’re thrilled to be able to bring the show to the viewers live and in-person, across 16 different venues, for the first time.”

Just recently, the panellists shared their opinions on the singing guests who were kicked out of the theatre for ruining the show for others.

Brenda has had multiple stints in theatre and the West End and hit out at those who ruin the performances for both the actors and singers as well as those who record on their phones or eat snacks loudly whilst watching a show or musical.

Her opinion comes after what happened in Manchester, when a performance of The Bodyguard had to halt when some guests were ejected.

She said: “It’s disgraceful behaviour. The thing is, with us performers, there’s so much that goes into performing eight shows a week in the first place.”

Loose Women panellists Janet Street-Porter and Denise Welch hinted at a past feud on Tuesday’s show

Janet Street-Porter and Denise Welch revealed they “didn’t speak” in the past as the Loose Women panellists addressed their friendship.

On Tuesday’s show, host Kaye Adams, Janet, Denise and Brenda Edwards asked: “Should you stay in touch with ex-colleagues?”

Janet opened up on her experience as a boss in the workplace before referring to her Loose Women co-stars as her friends.

“Actually, Denise is talking to me, she never used to,” Janet quipped as Denise replied: “I agree with you but there’s a reason for that. There have been big changes.”

Kaye gasped as Brenda looked horrified by the revelation.

Brenda told the Loose Women panellists that she saw them all as her friends: “All of you I’ve got your phone numbers and I talk to you individually.”

The presenters all agreed they were each other’s friends.

Denise then asked Janet if they were “friends” as the latter exclaimed: “You are my friend! Don’t start being neuroutic, Denise. Don’t mess it up!”

Janet continued: “If I’m honest, when I’ve been in a work situation where I’ve been the boss, you can’t be pally, you can’t have a close friend among the workforce because the other 99 percent will hate your guts and that person’s life will be made a misery in a lot of work situations.”

Brooklyn Beckham once again took to the kitchen as he prepared a fresh almond milk for his wife Nicola Peltz in a new Instagram clip published on Sunday.

The son of David and Victoria Beckham, 25, channelled his culinary passion in a bid to treat the actress, 29, to a delicious new recipe.

‘Fresh almond milk for my Mrs x,’ he penned fondly.

In the video, Brooklyn is seen filling a large glass jar with skin-on almonds and water, before leaving it in the fridge for a while.

After the almonds got softer, he mixes them in a blender resulting in a dripping paste which he used for the milk.

The former photographer proceeded squeezing more milk from a milk-soaked napkin until the new jar is filled up.

He then gave the final touch with cinnamon and vanilla on top, a choice that left some fans quite bewildered as they claimed Brooklyn used too much of it.

‘That amount of vanilla and cinnamon is diabolical,’ wrote one below the recent clip.

‘Ummmm we’re all like that’s too much vanilla right???,’ echoed another while one argued: ‘I love lots of vanilla and cinnamon too!!’

His beloved wife Nicola gushed over the treat and wrote with a slew of heart-eyes emojis: ‘obsessed.’

His famous dad David, 49, poked fun at him commenting: ‘Love this can u make me some @brooklynpeltzbeckham.’

It comes after it emerged that Nicola is gearing up to take legal action against a dog groomer after the sudden death of her chihuahua Nala.

The Lola actress  retained a lawyer and is planning to ‘go after the grooming company’ located in upstate New York, sources told TMZ last month.

The groomers attended to Nicola’s dog at the home where she was staying, shortly before Nala experienced a fatal medical emergency, per the insiders.

In an Instagram post on June 15, the star revealed that a vet had recently assessed Nala and declared her ‘perfectly healthy’ before she was taken to the unnamed grooming company.

However, when Nicola picked up Nala and noticed the dog was ‘hyperventilating and couldn’t catch her breath’, she immediately rushed her to an emergency vet, but the dog tragically passed away a few hours later.

According to TMZ’s sources, veterinary records indicated that the dog had fluid in her lungs, neurological problems, and a rapid heart rate before her death, though the exact cause of these issues remains unknown.

Nicola and Brooklyn had previously used the grooming service without any issues, according to the outlet.

TMZ’s sources claimed the actress’ legal action is not motivated by money but rather by a desire to prevent a similar tragedy from occurring again.

Nicola, an advocate for animal rights, is seeking answers about Nala’s time with the groomer. However, there were no cameras in the grooming van, per the sources, raising questions about what happened inside.

‘I’m sharing this in hopes that it might prevent this from happening to other dogs,’ Nicola added in her June 15 Instagram post. ‘Her life was taken away from her way too soon.

‘Please be careful who you send your dogs to because you don’t know what goes on behind closed doors. 1 day without nala on earth feels like an eternity. i wish i could have her back in my arms.’

Earlier last month in an Instagram Story, Nicola stated that the grooming company had ceased cooperating with her team, per USWeekly.

‘My heart has been shattered,’ she wrote. ‘I am relentlessly investigating the situation to find out exactly what happened in that groomer’s van. I am doing everything I can to uncover the truth.’

‘If her death was not due to foul play, then why isn’t the groomer cooperating with our investigation — they currently are not,’ she added.

Brooklyn had taken to his social media on June 15 to announced the loss and pay tribute to their beloved pet.

‘Dear Nala, we miss you so much, you were unexpectedly taken from way us too soon and hope others don’t experience a loss after something as simple as a grooming,’ he wrote alongside a snap of himself holding Nala.

‘You were the cutest little baby girl and we will always think of you. We know you are looking and barking down on us. We love you so much and miss you beyond.’

The ITV show’s Twitter page asked viewers whether protesting ‘should be banned’ and gave the options ‘yes’ and ‘no’ for people to choose from

Loose Women quickly deleted their social media poll about protesting after receiving backlash from fans.

The ITV show’s Twitter page asked viewers whether protesting ‘should be banned’ and gave the options ‘yes’ and ‘no’ for people to choose from.

With almost 15,000 votes, 95.6% of viewers answered ‘no’. However, the poll was soon deleted.

Fans immediately questioned why the poll was deleted, taking to Twitter to slam the daytime TV show.

“Where has your poll gone? Not the result you wanted?” one user asked.

Broadcaster Scott Bryan shared a screenshot of the show, which showed a tweaked version of the question on the bottom.

“Loose Women have deleted their poll and the TV discussion has been tweaked to “do disruptive protests work?”” Scott tweeted.

One disappointed user commented: “seething that loose women have deleted that poll haha.”

Human Rights lawyer Shoaib M Khan tweeted: “Good to see this poll has been deleted. But what were they thinking?”

“Am I seeing screenshots of Loose Women running a poll on whether protest should be banned because someone threw orange powder on a snooker table last night?” another said.

Fans were furious and slammed the show on Twitter
Protesting is a human right that is protected under the European Convention of Human Rights.

The Loose Women poll was made after a Just Stop Oil member halted play at the World Snooker Championship.

The extraordinary scenes took place during Robert Milkins’ clash against Joe Perry in the evening session at the Crucible.

The game was just a few minutes old, with Milkins leading 11-4 in, before one protester climbed from the stands and onto the table.

The group took to Twitter to explain their actions: “At around 7:20pm, two Just Stop Oil supporters have disrupted the World Snooker Championship at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, interrupting play,” they posted. “The pair proceeded to cover the tables in orange powder paint before being removed by security and arrested.

“They are demanding that the Government immediately stop all new UK fossil fuel projects and are calling on UK sporting institutions to step into in civil resistance against the Government’s genocidal policies.”

Loose Women star Denise Welch has detailed how much she’s changed on her sobriety journey, having ditched the booze over 11 years ago

Denise Welch has shared a jaw-dropping look at the effect alcohol had on her appearance before she decided to quit booze for good over a decade ago.

The Loose Women star, 64, took to her Twitter page to share a side-by-side snap of herself before and after she had her last-ever drink.

She shared a before and after comparison of her face as she celebrated 11 years sober.

Denise went on to credit loving husband Lincoln for helping her to reach the milestone – who got sober with her.

“11 yrs sober today!!” she wrote alongside the snap. “My greatest achievement apart from Matty and Louis.

“Thank you to my husband @LincolnTownley for everything [red love hearty emoji]”

Scores of fans rushed to reply to Denise’s tweet, congratulating her on her huge achievement.

“Look at you aging backwards. Congratulations one beautiful day at a time,” one penned.

“Fantastic. It’s often a battle and knowing that I’m always so impressed at a success such as yours,” another tweeted.

Denise has previously told how alcohol “ruined [her] life for 15 years” prior to her going sober.

She opened up about her alcoholism and how it can impact life, relationships and mental health.

Denise tweeted: “Alcohol is the most dangerous drug because it’s legal.

“Violence is fuelled by it. In most domestic abuse incidents alcohol is a major contributor.

“It is a major cause of anxiety & depression and yet we celebrate it everywhere.

“It ruined my life for 15 yrs.”

She previously told the Mirror that what she’s gained from sobriety means she’s never tempted to start drinking again.

“I don’t have temptation any more because of what sobriety has given us,” she revealed, “Our careers and our families.

“That is so much more important.

“It’s not something we miss anymore.”

Denise has also, in the past, been very open about her battles with depression.

Speaking about her life in London, Nadiya went on: “For me, I’ve come from a tiny city in Ukraine all the way here and to give her a life in London – which is probably the best place in the world in terms of opportunity – it’s great, to be honest.

“Whatever she ends up doing, it’s good for her future.”

“She has every option available to her, which makes me so happy. You can do anything here.”

In January, while appearing on Loose Women with Kai, Nadiya discussed how she had introduced Mila to him and admitted it “took some time” for the pair to bond but now Mila “adores” Kai.

Nadiya became emotional as she described her daughter’s bond with her professional dancer beau.

She said: “It took quite some time, honestly, it’s not easy.”

Gesturing to Loose Women panellist Judi Love, who has two teenage children, Nadiya said: “As you know you protect your child as much as you can.

“It took some time but he proved himself in all the possible ways,” Nadiya said appearing to fight back tears as the audience gave an ‘aww’.

The dancer continued: “Mila absolutely adores him,” she said which even left Judi, 42, emotional as she smiled and held Nadiya’s hand.

Panellist Kaye Adams then asked Kai: “And what is Mila’s nickname for you again?”

To which Kai revealed: “She calls me Kai Lemon Pie, she goes: ‘Hi Kai Lemon Pie, bye Kai Lemon Pie!’,” and laughed.

The loved-up couple were quizzed on how they ended up getting together.

Kai said: “When we dance together, it just works, it’s not often you get that.

“She is the best person I have ever danced with and I am not just saying that because she is my girlfriend.”

And, spilling on their first date, Kai revealed: “I said, well you know, you’re pretty. Pretty gorgeous. Do you want to go for dinner and stuff.”
