Loose Women is launching a domestic abuse awareness campaign, Facing It Together, and a special edition of the ITV show about the issue will be broadcast on Tuesday

Loose Women is launching a domestic abuse awareness campaign this week, with some of the panel said to open up about their experiences in a short film on the ITV show.

The campaign, Facing It Together, guided by the charities Women’s Aid and SafeLives, aims to highlight the help that is available to those living with domestic abuse. It also aims to educate people on the signs of such abuse and ways that they can support loved ones who may be experiencing it.

It will be the focus of a special episode of Loose Women on Tuesday afternoon. For the new campaign, eight of the talk show’s panellists took part in an emotive photoshoot and short film, with them sharing in a promotional clip: “Whether you are a survivor or a friend, we are facing it together.”

The clip was unveiled by ITV on Monday afternoon. During the video ahead of the campaign’s launch, it’s stated that one in four women will experience domestic abuse and that one in seven men have experienced some form of it too.

Brenda Edwards, 55, Charlene White, 43, Denise Welch, 65, and Frankie Bridge, 35, feature in the campaign. They are joined by their colleagues Judi Love, 43, Kelle Bryan, 48, Olivia Attwood-Dack, 32, and Sunetra Sarker, 50.

Announcing the campaign, ITV said: “Denise, Olivia, Kelle and Brenda, all four of whom have personally experienced domestic abuse, stand shoulder to shoulder with their fellow panellists and friends – in a show of support and solidarity with those currently facing domestic abuse, as well as survivors, and to let them know that they’re not alone.”

It adds that the special on Tuesday will show Denise, Kelle and Olivia “bravely open up on their personal accounts of domestic abuse” in the short film that will play during the show. Their co-stars Charlene, Frankie, Judi and Sunetra will “explain why they are supporting the campaign”.

During the live show, Charlene, Brenda and Kelle, as well as two other panellists, will discuss “how we can all gain a better understanding of the types of domestic abuse – from knowing what to say, how to speak up and help people living with domestic abuse so no one has to suffer in silence”.

Sally Shelford, editor of Loose Women said: “We’re always proud to represent the issues facing our viewers at home. We hope that this campaign gives a voice to the many survivors and those living with abuse, as well as empowering their friends and family to know the best ways they can help and approach these difficult conversations. We really hope that our campaign helps both survivors and their friends and family face it together.”

Suzanne Jacob, the CEO of SafeLives, said: “National campaigns like ‘Facing It Together’ are so important. Abusers will tell you no one cares about you, no one will believe you and you have no one else. The Loose Women panel are making it clear that is absolutely not true. You are not alone. And there is life after abuse. Domestic abuse thrives when it is behind closed doors. If you’re worried about someone – don’t wait for them to reach out, reach in. Domestic abuse is everyone’s business. Only together, can we make it stop.”

Farah Nazeer, chief executive of Women’s Aid, said about the initiative: “We are delighted to be working with Loose Women as they launch their ‘Facing It Together’ campaign. […] We know from our work with survivors that so many women don’t report domestic abuse for fear of not being believed, and it falls to us as a society to change this.”

Loose Women’s ‘Facing It Together’ special will be broadcast on Tuesday from 12:30pm on ITV and ITVX.

Meghan Markle: Lady Colin Campbell warns Duchess of Sussex not to ‘hustle her way to top’

MEGHAN MARKLE is still settling into her position within the royal family and Lady Colin Campbell wasted no time in giving the Duchess of Sussex some advice on today’s edition of Good Morning Britain.

Meghan Markle urged to ‘come up with a new act’ by Lady C

Good Morning Britain hosts Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard were joined by Lady Colin Campbell in the studio today.

While she was initially there to talk about her Celebs Go Dating debut, conversation quickly turned to her giving advice to Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex.

The Jamaican-born British writer and socialite has published three books about the British royal family and she made her thoughts on the newest royal very clear.

“I think the verdict’s out at the moment,” ITV viewers saw her tell the presenters.

 

“I’m rooting for Meghan, I hope Meghan is going to do as well as she appeared in the very early days that she would be doing.”

“I have to say, the ride has been rather rockier than one would have hoped,” she continued.

Ben then asked: “Do you think it will calm down now she is a mother?”

“I have an awful feeling that Meghan needs to understand things she doesn’t yet understand,” Lady C replied and Ben probed: “Like what?”

“Like there is a massive difference between being a celebrity, hustling your way from the bottom to the top, and she was a very proud hustler.

“She used to use the word hustle for herself and her first husband, very proudly.”

Lady Colin went on to discuss the transition Meghan is making from Hollywood celebrity to Royal.

“And being a royal; you don’t hustle, the values, embodiment is completely different, she’s sorted, she’s got it, I think she needs to now embrace it and understand it’s a new game in town.

“She’s an actress, she needs to come up with a new act!” the socialite concluded.

Meghan celebrated her 38th birthday yesterday and Prince Harry took to their shared Instagram account with a message of celebration.

The post caption read: “Wishing HRH The Duchess of Sussex a very Happy Birthday.

I’m routing for Meghan.

Lady C on GMB today.

“‘Happy Birthday to my amazing wife. Thank you for joining me on this adventure!’ – Love, H.”

It comes after the Duchess revealed a project she had been secretly woking on for many months prior to the announcement.

Meghan was the Guest Editor for the September issue of British Vogue, where she chose a diverse selection of women to be the faces of the issue named: “Forces for Change”.

Elsewhere on Good Morning Britain, viewers tuned in to see the show debate whether or not images, pictures and photographs of the Queen are ‘offensive’, which was recently claimed by Lee Hegarty who won £10,000 compensation.

Nadia Sawalha is on hand to warn people about a pretty unknown law passengers must observe when flying, with the Loose Women icon admitting she’s broken the rule many, many times over the years

Nadia Sawalha shared an hilarious video with fans on Wednesday – revealing that she’s accidentally broken the law.

The Loose Women favourite even prompted a response from a police force thanks to admitting her ‘crime’ on Instagram. In a video filmed in an airport, the ITV star told her followers: “I’m just at the airport and have realised I have broken the law multiple times. Could have faced the fing courts…and what you don’t realise is you have too. I mean, what the f.”

The former EastEnders actress then turned the camera to reveal a sign from the police warning passengers that says you can’t be drunk on an aircraft. “I had no idea this was illegal? ? Did you? When did they make this illegal? ? ? “, Nadia asked as she captioned the video.

“Have we all missed that GINORMOUS sign,” one Instagram user joked as they wrote underneath Nadia’s video. “What??? Omg all those times!! seriously,” another penned, as third fumed: What the f*”k!!!!!! Since when was this a law???? So you can’t get on a plane drunk but it’s ok for the flight attendants to take your money and ply you with alcohol for you then to get off the plane drunk? I’m confused – getting on/off the plane drunk, what’s the difference.”

Even though Nadia was making a joke, some people reminded everyone that being drunk on flights isn’t a laughing matter. Someone grumbled: “Plenty of idiots ruin it by sneaking on their own booze getting smashed and causing problems for the staff and public it’s a good think drunken idiots are annoying as hell on a flight.”

An ex-flight attendant shared their thoughts and added to the debate, writing: “As ex cabin crew who had to deal with plenty of out of control passengers in my time, it’s for the safety of you and everyone around you. People actually mad on planes as it is. Alcohol is not the answer.”

Even the Instagram account for Sussex Police got involved, with the force’s social media manager writing: “Hands up, Nadia. We’ve got you! Just kidding, a few drinks won’t make you a woman on the loose. Having a drink or two whilst waiting to get on the flight or during the journey isn’t a crime. But being drunk and causing a disturbance is an offence and has been since 2009, to keep everyone safe and comfortable. We hope you had a good flight.”

Airlines can say no to drunk passengers if they think they might be a danger on the plane. If you’re caught being too drunk, you could get fined up to £5,000 or even go to jail for two years. You’re allowed to bring up to 5 litres of booze from Duty Free onto the plane. But remember, you can’t drink your own alcohol during the flight; it has to stay in your carry-on bag. If you want a drink, you’ll have to buy it during the flight.

Loose Women star Jane Moore made a huge blunder on live TV today when she let slip that a good friend of hers was going into the Celebrity Big Brother house, despite it not having officially been confirmed

Loose Women star Jane Moore let slip a good friend of hers would be heading into the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Jane made her return to the ITV lunchtime show after being busy with other projects and heading on a number of other projects. However, as she discussed her return to the programme, she let slip one of the biggest names heading into the famous house.

Celebrity Big Brother bosses have yet to confirm who is heading into the house next week, but the show will kick off on Monday March 4th. Fans are thrilled to have the celebrities back in the house after a successful civilian series last year.

Speaking about where she’s been for the last few months, Jane revealed: “I was on tour with Sharon Osbourne. It was really good fun. She’s such a joy to interview because she’s so honest. She said to me, I don’t want to know any of the questions beforehand – and who says that to you. I was quite out there, with my questioning and it was brilliant.”

The other panellists then asked if she answered questions about Celebrity Big Brother, to which Jane quickly added: “She is. She is.” Kaye seemingly tried to remind Jane that ITV have yet to confirm who is going on, as Nadia added: “I wasn’t expecting you to answer that,” with Kaye sharing: “I don’t think ITV have confirmed that just yet, it’s just a rumour.”

Jane continued to insist Sharon was going in, before Kaye chimed in: “Will somebody send back the real Jane Moore?” Eventually, Jane realised her error, saying: “I mean sorry, it’s been rumoured that she’s going in. She will be amazing… if indeed she was to be going in.”

Hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best have been sharing their dream line-up, with AJ sharing: “I definitely want to see someone from Selling Sunset, I want an American. They never quite fully understand the concept and they never know who the other UK celebrities are. The two worlds colliding is always perfection to watch. We want some A-list celebrities to get in there and ask where’s the champagne? We went them to think it’s going to be luxurious, but we’ve given them an economy shopping budget.”

Will added: “I want to have a mix of ages. It’s that intergenerational thing and seeing the difference between old-school celebrities and new ones. I want a musician, a sports person, a royal, a reality personality, they are part of the fabric of our current celebrity culture.”

Linda Robson appeared on Friday’s episode of Lorraine where she gave an update on her life, work on Loose Women and family

Linda Robson has said that her daughter gives her “pocket money” and controls her cash.

Appearing on Friday’s episode of Lorraine, the Birds of a Feather actress opened up about how her daughter, Lauren, is in charge of her finances so she doesn’t get into debt. The 65-year-old talked about how her family have helped her with mental health struggles in the past and organising her finances.

Speaking to host Ranvir Singh, the Loose Women panelist said that her fellow panel show pals helped her when she struggled with an alcohol addiction. She also went on to say that her daughter had to swoop in to help her with her cash.

Lauren explained: “She’s always been really bad with money. She used to get store cards and just spend on them, it’s like she didn’t think you had to pay them at the end of the month.” Ranvir then went on to say how generous Linda was with other people as Lauren said that her mum used to buy everything for her friends.

She explained: “She used to buy everyone everything, pay for everyone to go on holiday, pay for us to go places, so it’s not like she just goes out shopping and spends everything on herself.” Linda then interjected saying: “I love buying presents for people.”

Despite being so generous, Lauren said that she is now in charge of her mum’s spending to make sure that she doesn’t use all of her savings again after she ended up in thousands of pounds of debt when Birds of a Feather came to an end.

Lauren said: “When she lost all of her money and went bankrupt she was in a terrible state so we never want that to happen to her again. I have her money, it goes into an account that I have access to and then I give her money on a Monday and a Friday.”

Ranvir went on to ask: “Do you get pocket money?” and Linda replied: “Yes and sometimes I ring her and say I’ve run out of money can I have some more? And she says no, you’ve had your pocket money, you’ll have to wait.”

Linda’s other daughter Bobby used to be in charge of her money before Lauren took on the job. Linda explained that Lauren tends to be stricter with her and when Bobby was in charge, she used to find it easier to get money from her daughter. She said: “(Bobby) was easier, I used to be able to get money off Bobby easier, but now Lauren’s got it she’s quite strict.”

Birds of a Feather officially came to an end in December 2020. However, it was broadcast on BBC One for a nine year run from 1989 before being revived fifteen years later for ITV.

Loose Women presenter Ruth Langsford sent fans wild as she donned a fabulous 70’s outfit to celebrate the 30th birthday of her close pal alongside stars including Denise Van Outen

Many are perhaps used to seeing presenter Ruth Langsford looking rather conservative while on the panel of Loose Women.

But Ruth showed off a more fun-loving side to her character when she sported a 1970’s outfit for a friend’s themed birthday bash. Wearing a pair of heart shaped pink tinted glasses, Ruth complimented her look with a shiny black top underneath a multi-coloured sequined jacket.

The TV personality, 63, who is married to Eamon Holmes, completed her look with a pair of denim jeans and gold high heeled shoes. In a series of stories on her Instagram, Ruth first posted a video of her and a pal in a dressing room with a caption that read: “Uber on it’s way sweetie!”

The next video was of her getting into the party spirit as she filmed her self dancing before heading to the bash. She captioned the video saying: “You jivin hun?” The next few clips were of the birthday girl named Liv Davey, who appears to be a make-up artist. In another video, Liv is seen dancing alongside Denise Van Outen, who was DJing, while having the time of her life. Denise also shared clips on Instagram, writing: “Happy 30th Liv!”

In a picture, it seems as though Ruth is looking to add more strings to her bow as she was snapped imitating a DJ. Earlier this month, Ruth sent fans into hysterics when she attempted the “of course” trend that is taking social media by storm.

The trend sees people address stereotypes or perceptions related to their particular careers or identity. Keeping up to date with the current trend, Ruth was seen posing in an outfit from her QVC clothing range as she told viewers: “I’m Ruth Langsford… of course I always model my own designs.” She was then seen standing in a kitchen, where she teased tea preferences.

She added: “I’m Ruth Langsford… of course, I always have Earl Grey tea in a porcelain teacup.” The former This Morning host was also filmed having her hair and makeup done. She teased: “I’m Ruth Langsford … of course, I have my own personal hair and makeup team.” She then jokingly told a member of her glam squad: “My toes will need shaving.”

The TV personality was next seen ringing a bell demanding champagne. After being handed a glass, she commented: “I’m Ruth Langsford… of course I drink champagne at the end of a photoshoot. Cheers.” Taking just a sip of the fizzy drink, she is then seen spitting out the drink questioning if it was prosecco instead. Looking disgusted she said: “Urgh! Is that prosecco? Is that prosecco?” Looking at the camera with her hand out towards it, she then joked: “Turn that off! I’ve never been so insulted in my life. Turn it off!”

Prince Harry ‘may take revenge’ on King Charles and Prince William with brutal move

Prince Harry will likely write another book detailing private information about the royals after his family “turned their backs on him”, a royal expert has claimed.

Prince Harry is “angry” and “frustrated” with King Charles and Prince William and could even write another book to get his revenge, an expert has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex’s relationship with his father and brother remains extremely tense due to his and Meghan Markle’s tumultuous royal exit in 2020.

Since then, the Sussexes have launched several attacks on the Royal Family in Netflix shows and in Harry’s memoir – Spare.

Harry’s reported efforts to build bridges with his family are yet to reap reward, and royal author Christopher Andersen claimed this is beginning to anger the Duke.

He told Fox News Digital: “Harry has tried again and again to make amends with his father but to no avail.

“The King and William have really dug in, and the more Harry is rebuffed, the angrier and more frustrated he gets. He must be thinking, ‘Why should I keep quiet if my father and brother are stonewalling me?’ As far as William and the king are concerned, Harry has been banging his head against the wall.

“It seems inevitable that at some point he will throw up his hands and write another searingly honest book. At the same time, Harry is also well aware that now is not the time to talk out of turn about his family.

“People around the world are praying for the King and Princess Kate to make full recoveries. Harry surely would not want to be seen kicking them when they’re down.”

Harry returned to the UK for an Invictus Games event in May and reportedly turned down an invitation from King Charles to stay at Buckingham Palace during his visit.

The Duke and his father didn’t see each other despite being just a few miles away.

Mr Andersen claimed, however, that it is Charles and William who are “shunning” Harry to focus on the cancer treatment of both the Monarch and the Princess of Wales, Kate.

He added: “The King and the Princess of Wales’s cancer battles have made it easier for both King Charles III and Prince William to put Harry out of their minds.

“They are both shunning him now because they can’t afford not to – they simply can’t handle the distraction.”

“Charles and Harry aren’t speaking, period. The fallout from ‘Spare’ has been eclipsed by Kate’s and the King’s cancer battles. King Charles and William hadn’t got the time to worry about whether Harry would take more potshots at them.

“Harry has already gotten the message that there are consequences for his attacks on the royals; his entire family has turned its back on him.”

Meanwhile, royal expert Tom Quinn has told The Mirror that the King has sent a direct warning to Harry.

He claimed: “Harry has been asked directly by his father not to write or say publicly anything further about the family or his brother that might cause trouble. Everyone knows that when a King asks you to do something, there are going to be consequences if you do not obey.”

Mystery surrounds Prince William after he makes ‘secret visit’ to MI6

The Prince of Wales met with the Secret Intelligence Service on Thursday

Mystery surrounds Prince William after he made a “secret visit” to MI6 yesterday.

The Prince of Wales met with the Secret Intelligence Service, also known as MI6, which protects the UK from risks abroad, on Thursday afternoon.

The visit was not announced in advance and only appeared today in the Court Circular, the daily list of official royal engagements, which is published the next day.

The entry in the Court Circular read simply “The Prince of Wales this afternoon visited the Secret Intelligence Service” with no location or additional details given.

It is not known whether the future King met MI6 boss Sir Richard Moore, codenamed “C” and Kensington Palace delined to provide further information on the visit.

William went to the MI6 headquarters in London with the now-Princess of Wales in 2012 and made a similar visit in 2022, just hours before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

No further details about either visit, including who he met and what was discussed, were revealed either.

In 2019, he spent three weeks working with MI5, MI6 and GCHQ to learn how the UK’s security and intelligence agencies work

“These agencies are full of people from everyday backgrounds doing the most extraordinary work to keep us safe,” he said at the time. “They work in secret, often not even able to tell their family and friends about the work they do or the stresses they face.”

In March, MI6 launched a recruitment drive to hire more spies from black and Asian backgrounds.

The first black spy to give a live broadcast interview told BBC Radio 1Xtra that working for MI6 was more exciting than James Bond the fictional MI6 spy who serves king and country.

Express.co.uk has contacted Kensington Palace for further information.

Prince William and kids didn’t face camera in Father’s Day photo for ‘intimate’ reasons

Prince William turned away from the photographer for ‘intimate’ family reasons, a body language expert has explained

Prince William’s three children, Princes George and Louis as well as their sister, Princess Charlotte, posted a heartwarming Father’s Day picture on their social account that speaks to the family’s “intimacy”, claims a body language expert. The photo, which was posted on Sunday, showed the three royals with their backs to the photographer in Norfolk.

The sweet photograph has drawn much admiration from social media users. Offering insights into the underlying meaning behind it, renowned body language expert Judi James analysed the image.

According to her, the choice to capture the shot from the back reveals that intimacy is at play rather than a desire for ostentation “Photographed from the back view, they avoid actually communicating with the camera. It suggests this is an intimate and loving moment caught rather than a ‘show pony’ one posed to please the viewer.”

This sweet note shared on the official Kensington X handle marks the first time the young ones have sent out a post signed by them. The heartfelt post on what was formerly known as Twitter read, “We love you, Papa. Happy Father’s Day.” Signed off with, “G, C and L.”

In addition to celebrating their dad, Prince William also took the opportunity on Father’s Day to pay homage to his own father, the King. He chose to express his affection for the monarch through a touching post.

Inscribed was “Happy Father’s Day, Pa. W”, adjacent to a fond remembrance in the form of a snapshot of a young Prince William and the future king with a football nestled at his feet.

Taken on the June 12, 1984, within Kensington Palace’s gardens, a still image showcases young Prince William, scarcely two years old reports the Mirror. It was in this year that he gained a younger sibling – the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, born in September.

The Royal Family’s X account also shared footage of Charles and his late father, Prince Philip, sourced from the BFI’s lengthy archive.

“Wishing all Dads, and those who may be missing their parents today, a relaxing Father’s Day,” the royal family’s official account said. Set to piano music, the footage showed several scenes of Philip and Charles together. In one clip Philip lifts baby Charles out of a pram, in another, the pair are seen sailing together.

Last year for Father’s Day the royal family shared a photo of a young Prince Harry and William with their dad. Three images were shared on Twitter with the caption: “To Dads everywhere, we wish you a very special Father’s Day today.”

One image shows Prince Philip with his son Charles and the second one shows Queen Camilla with her father Major Bruce Shand. The third image shows Charles with his two sons William and Harry. The sweet image, taken in 1997, shows the three above the Falls of Muick on the Balmoral estate in Scotland.

Princess Kate’s two-word instruction to Princess Charlotte during Trooping the Colour

Kate, Princess of Wales, made a brief return to public life to celebrate the King’s official birthday with the rest of the Royal Family.

Kate, the Princess of Wales, gave strict instructions to Princess Charlotte, as they enjoyed Trooping the Colour, according to a lip reader.

The Princess of Wales briefly returned to public life to support the King and her husband, Prince William, at the celebrations for His Majesty’s official birthday.

The royal observed the proceedings from the balcony of the Duke of Wellington’s former office overlooking Horse Guards Parade with Charlotte and sons Prince George and Prince Louis.

The foursome could be seen enjoying themselves as they watched the ceremony but lip reading Nicola Hinckley claimed the Princess gave clear instructions to her daughter and her brothers.

Ms Hinckley told The Mirror that Kate appeared to say: “Keep smiling. And stay here for one moment.”

The expert noted the Princess of Wales’s instructions came shortly after Kate appeared to tell George and Louis: “You stay there, OK?”

The event marked the first public event Kate has attended since the start of the year.

In January, Kensington Palace announced she would take a break from official duties after undergoing abdominal surgery.

Two months later, Kate personally confirmed she was receiving “preventative chemotherapy” in a heartfelt video message to the public.

After weeks of speculation, the royal confirmed on Friday she would be attending Trooping the Colour but said she is “not out of the woods yet.”

Kate said she has “good days and bad days”, and has started taking meetings when she feels up to it.

The Palace reiterated her appearance at the event on Saturday should not be considered a sign she will be resuming her official duties.

The Princess of Wales also thanked the public for the outpouring of support shown to her and the Prince of Wales since she announced her cancer diagnosis.

Her brief return to public life was greeted with loud cheers as she was spotted riding the Glass Carriage to Horse Guards Parade with George, Charlotte and Louis.

She later was reunited with William, the King and Queen on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to watch the RAF Red Arrows’s flypast.
