     “HE SAID WHAT FANS WERE THINKING…” Junior Andre has just made a brutally honest, no-filter comment about his mum, Katie Price — and it’s sent shockwaves through her fanbase.

    Junior Andre makes ‘honest’ admission about mum Katie Price amid concerns about her worrying weight loss

    Junior Andre has spoken out in response to fans who have expressed concerns about his mum, Katie Price.

    Katie, 47, was spotted looking worryingly thin earlier this month when she attended the store launch of her friend, TOWIE star Yazmin Oukhellou, in Hertfordshire.

    The former glamour model donned brown lace leggings and a bomber jacket, and appeared to need help from friends when traversing a staircase.

    Katie also revealed she was hospitalised earlier this year after a “dramatic” weight loss.

    Junior Andre reveals truth about Katie Price’s health

    However, for all those concerned, Junior, 20, has revealed that his family are “the best they’ve ever been” as they prepare for Christmas.

    He told the Mail: “People don’t know her like we know her. She is doing great, she’s so loving, and we love her so much. We can’t wait to see her over Christmas. I am literally round her house all the time. They don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors. To be honest, I am in the best place with my family that I’ve ever been.”

    Junior continued: “People can say and think what they like, but they don’t actually know. They are hearing it from me that we are all great and probably the best we have ever been.”

    Katie Price’s worrying weight loss

    Junior’s honest admission comes after Katie documented her “unexplained” weight loss on Snapchat.

    She told followers on the photo-sharing app that doctors were doing blood tests to assess what may be causing her body to shed the pounds.

    “I’ve been up early at the doctors so she could do some bloods and because my veins are so [bleep] they had three attempts,” Katie said in September.

    “The reason I’m going to the doctors is because I keep losing weight and I don’t know why. So that’s that.”

    The mum-of-five has also revealed she is quitting vaping. Taking to TikTok, she shared an X-ray of a pair of lungs, with the picture claiming vaping had been linked to lung disease.

    “I have to stop,” she said.

    It’s a particularly emotional topic for the star. Katie’s mother, Amy, was diagnosed with terminal lung disease back in 2017.

    Junior Andre’s Christmas plans

    Regardless of any ongoing health issues, Junior is excited to be spending the festive season with his family.

    While he spends Christmas Eve with his dad, singer Peter Andre, he then sees mum Katie on Christmas Day. Junior will also spend time with his siblings; Harvey, 23, Princess, 18, Jett, 12, and 11-year-old Bunny.

    “My mum has everything, so she’s hard to buy for, but it’s all about the thought and the sentiment. I know my mum and what will make her emotional – probably better than anyone, along with my siblings. Our tradition for Christmas is literally just family, food, music, and presents. We always have Christmas music playing in the background, the fireplace is on and matching PJs,” he added.

    A schoolboy who suffered life-threatening injuries after a tractor overturned on a farm has died.

    Aaron Anderson, 14, from Consett, passed away on Boxing Day after he was rushed to the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle on December 21 when a John Deere Gator overturned at the property near Burnopfield, County Durham.

    Aaron’s devastated family said: ‘He was a much-loved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend. He will be missed by all who knew him.

    ‘Aaron was always happiest working on farms and fixing trucks. Even at the age of 14 he had an amazing work ethic and already had two apprenticeship offers.

    ‘Although we are saddened about the life he will never have, we are so thankful for the life he has lived and will cherish all the happy memories he left us with.’

    They added: ‘We have had an overwhelming response from our friends, family and the local community who we can’t thank enough.

    ‘We would also like to thank the ambulance service, police, and most importantly the amazing staff at the Royal Victoria Infirmary and charities who have provided us with so much comfort in this difficult time.

    ‘Our thoughts and well wishes are also with everyone else affected by this tragic incident.

    ‘We would now ask to be left in peace to grieve the loss of our son.’

    Another boy, 13, also sustained serious injuries in the crash and was taken to hospital.

    He has since been released and is recovering at home.

    Durham Constabulary’s investigation to establish the circumstances surrounding the collision remains ongoing, and officers would like to speak to anyone who may have information that could assist them.

    Road Policing Inspector Mick Todd previously said: ‘This was a horrific incident which has left two boys with very serious injuries.

    ‘Our thoughts are with them and their families at this difficult time.

    ‘An investigation is ongoing to establish the circumstances.’

    A spokesperson for North East Ambulance Service said: ‘We were called to an incident on a private road in Burnopfield shortly after 8.20pm on 21 December.

    ‘We dispatched three double crewed ambulances, one vehicle from our Hazardous Area Response Team, a clinical team leader and a specialist paramedic.

    ‘Two patients were taken to the Royal Victoria Infirmary.’

    Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101.

    Breaking News:Patrick Christys SLAMS ‘Idiotic’ Celebs Who Campaigned for Alaa Abd El-Fattah’s British Citizenship

    Posted by


    “This is what happens when celebrity activism replaces basic due diligence,” Patrick Christys said, launching a blistering attack on high-profile stars who publicly campaigned to bring Egyptian activist Alaa Abd El-Fattah to Britain.

    Speaking during a furious on-air monologue, Christys accused a string of famous actors and public figures of “virtue-signalling without thinking”, after historic social media posts attributed to El-Fattah resurfaced following his arrival in the UK.

    “They didn’t check. They didn’t ask questions. They didn’t care,” Christys said.
    “They were handed a script, told it would make them look good, and they read it out like obedient little schoolchildren.”

    ‘They Know Absolutely Nothing’

    Christys reserved particular scorn for celebrities who recorded emotional video appeals urging the British government to intervene on El-Fattah’s behalf while he was imprisoned in Egypt.

    “These people sit in multi-million-pound houses, jet between London, the south of France and Hollywood, sipping champagne by their fire pits — and then lecture the public about morality,” he said.
    “And now it’s blown up in their faces.”

    He described the situation as “a masterclass in elite hypocrisy”, accusing celebrities of failing to conduct even the most basic research into the individual they were publicly endorsing.

    “Not one of them thought to do a five-minute search,” Christys said.
    “And yet they expect the public to take their political opinions seriously?”

    ‘Looks Like a Right Mug Now, Doesn’t She?’

    Christys singled out several household names who appeared in filmed appeals, arguing that their silence since the controversy erupted speaks volumes.

    “They were loud when the cameras were rolling,” he said.
    “Funny how quiet they are now.”

    According to Christys, the episode has irreparably damaged the credibility of celebrity activism.

    “Why should anyone listen to these people ever again?” he asked.
    “What wisdom are we meant to take from actors who didn’t even know who they were campaigning for?”

    Double Standards and ‘Selective Outrage’

    Christys also pointed to what he called a glaring double standard in how public figures are treated depending on their political views.

    “Say the wrong thing about immigration or protest movements and you’re cancelled overnight,” he said.
    “But back someone with extremist rhetoric and suddenly it’s all silence and excuses.”

    He argued that the public is increasingly tired of “celebrity moral lectures that collapse under scrutiny.”

    “This isn’t compassion,” Christys said.
    “It’s arrogance — the belief that because you’re famous, you don’t need facts.”

    ‘They Should Admit They Got It Wrong’

    Christys said the least the celebrities involved could do is acknowledge their mistake publicly.

    “Own it,” he said.
    “Say you got it wrong. Apologise. Learn from it.”

    But he added bluntly:

    “They won’t — because that would require humility.”

    A Moment of Reckoning

    Christys concluded by suggesting the fallout could mark a turning point in how the public responds to celebrity political campaigning.

    “If there’s one good thing to come out of this mess,” he said,
    “it’s that people might finally stop taking political lectures from celebrities who don’t know what they’re talking about.”

    “This wasn’t bravery. It wasn’t principle,” Christys added.
    “It was idiocy — played out on a very public stage.”

    HORROR AT UK HOSPITAL A woman was seen running through the street covered in ɓlooɗ after a crowbar rampage erupted inside a hospital waiting room  Police say a 20-year-old Λfghan man allegedly launched the a††ack after being refused an appointment, leaving five people injured at Newton Community Hospital. He was arrested at the scene. Panic. Screams. Blood on the floor. Witnesses say the moment felt like a nightmare.

    A woman was seen running along the street covered in blood amid a crowbar rampage in a hospital waiting room that left five people injured.

    A 20-year-old Afghan man allegedly launched the attack after he was refused an appointment, and was arrested at the scene at Newton Community Hospital in Newton-Le-Willows, Merseyside.

    The ‘shaking’ woman reportedly ran from the hospital into a local shop just after midday and begged staff to summon police.

    Sugedaran Shanmugaraja, who was working at Best One, opposite the hospital, told the Liverpool Echo: ‘She had a lot of blood at the back of her head and on her shoulder. She was shaking and upset.’

    He passed his mobile to the distressed woman so she could call the police, and moments later ‘ten or 15 police cars and an ambulance’ tore onto the scene, Mr Shanmugaraja said.

    Merseyside Police confirmed they were scrambled to Newton Community Hospital just after midday on Tuesday.

    The harrowing incident started when a man, who is originally from Afghanistan, arrived at the hospital to request an appointment.

    When his demand was denied he became increasingly agitated and attacked several people with a weapon – believed to be a crowbar.

    The Afghan man has been arrested on suspicion of five counts of wounding with intent, affray and criminal damage.

    He was taken to a local police station and remains in custody.

    A large police presence remains at the scene and members of the public have been advised to avoid the area.

    Hannah West, who lives across the road from the hospital, said she saw staff and wounded people being evacuated, as well as a man being arrested.

    She told the BBC: ‘Hospital staff were being evacuated – they looked really stressed, but you could tell they were trying to help people.

    ‘One woman was wrapped up and in a wheelchair being wheeled to an ambulance.’

    Ms West added that she saw a man being arrested in the car park of the Best One store.

    St Helens Neighbourhood Superintendent Sarah Rotherham said: ‘We were called to reports of a man behaving aggressively at the hospital who had assaulted a number of people.

    ‘Officers attended immediately and the male was swiftly located and arrested.

    ‘Paramedics attended at the hospital and carried out first aid to those who had been injured.

    ‘I would like to take this opportunity for anyone who witnessed this incident at the hospital to contact us with any information.’

    The commotion at the Merseyside hospital started after an Afghan national was refused his demand for a hospital appointment

    A spokesperson for the Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust said: ‘We can confirm that an incident occurred at Newton Hospital today, and the Trust is working closely with Merseyside Police as they conduct their investigations.

    ‘Our priority is the safety and well-being of our staff, patients, and visitors, and we are providing full support to those affected.

    ‘If you have an appointment at Newton Hospital or are the next of kin of an inpatient, our team will contact you directly with any updates.’

    In a statement, Merseyside Police said: ‘We have arrested a 20-year-old man after reports five people were assaulted at Newton Community Hospital in Newton-Le-Willows this afternoon.

    ‘Just after 12pm we received a report that a man attended the hospital to request an appointment.

    ‘At this stage it is believed that his request was declined and when he was asked to leave he became increasingly agitated and damaged a counter before assaulting several people inside the hospital, with a weapon (possibly a crowbar).

    ‘Those who were injured are currently being treated by paramedics at the hospital for injuries, which are not life-threatening.’

    ‘Anyone with information on the incident should contact the Merseyside Police social media desk @MerPolCC on X and Facebook quoting reference 25001060801. You can also report information via our website or call 101.

    ‘Alternatively, contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.’

    Newton Le-Willows councillor Seve Gomez-Aspron said his father, who lives next door to the hospital, had told him about the attack.

    Cllr Gomez-Aspron said: ‘At around 12.10pm I got a phone call from my dad, who lives next to the hospital, to say a family friend had run to his house to tell him that someone was attacking staff within the hospital and damaging the reception area.

    ‘I live nearby, so I told him to call the police and I rushed to the hospital and so I got there within a few minutes.’

    He thanked Merseyside Police and North West Ambulance Service for their swift response and ‘running into a scenario where danger is unknown’.

    “MARIA” FOUND IN ROME: DNA Results Leave Parents in Tears!

    The girl has caught the attention of the authorities because of her politeness and her lack of Italian. Internet campaigners think the girl could be one of several missing people, including Madeleine McCann who disappeared in 2007, and think she bears a striking resemblance to her. The teenager has been walking around with old clothes on, no belongings and has not accepted cash from locals.

    There have been several people that think it may be Madeleine McCann who would be 13 now Missing Persons of America Photos have been shared of the teenager online in a hope that she can be reunited with her family for Christmas. Madeleine vanished from Praia da Luz holiday resort in Portugal in May 2007 at the age of three and authorities are still trying to understand what happened to her. The Italian police have tried to identify the girl, who is sleeping rough on the streets with no passport or ID.

    Locals think she is called Maria as that is the name she responds to Critics think this girl is not Madeleine, who would be 13 now, as she does not have the blemish on her eye. The website, Missing Persons of America wrote on a page for this girl, said: “There have been several people that think it may be Madeleine McCann who would be 13 now.

    The teenager has been walking around in tattered clothing (Image: Missing Persons of America ) “Madeleine had a distinctive mark on her eye and it would be easy to tell if it was her by that identification.” Campaign group Houston’s Voice For The Missing wrote on Facebook: “This girl needs help. I have been in constant contact with everyone from NCMEC, Rome police, locals journalist, the embassy, locals and anyone else I could think of. “Police refuse to identify her. I found a local willing to go out to her then call me on facetime so maybe I get get something out of her.

    But we will see.” She has also been linked to a number of other missing persons cases, including Amanda Adlai, who was abducted in Michigan in 2008, and Maria-Brigitte Henselmann, who disappeared from Germany in 2008.

    Nikki Sanderson’s Christmas Miracle: Corrie star, 41, reveals baby bump in red dress as she and Anthony Quinlan announce they’re expecting their first child

    Soap sweethearts Nikki Sanderson and Anthony Quinlan have shared the kind of festive surprise no gift could ever match — announcing they are expecting their first child together.

    The couple unveiled their happy news in a heartfelt Christmas video posted on Instagram. It began with a cosy shot of their Christmas tree before the camera slowly zoomed in on a bauble decorated with a baby scan. Their caption read, “Happy Christmas from the 3 of us,” followed by a tiny Christmas tree emoji and the line, “Baby Quinlan due 2026.”

    Speaking exclusively in a glamorous photoshoot, former Coronation Street star Nikki, now 41, said the two of them are “over the moon” and delighted to welcome what she described as “a lovely little spring baby.”

    Anthony, who fans know from Emmerdale and Hollyoaks, admitted he “can’t wait till we’re a little team of three,” adding that he “wants to shout it from the rooftops.”

    The pair first confirmed their romance in early 2022 after years of friendship. At the time, Anthony openly shared that he had “always fancied her” and called Nikki “mega hot,” laughing as he recalled sliding into her DMs. Nikki, meanwhile, told fans they were “very happy” but preferred to keep their relationship mostly private. “He’s such a wonderful guy and I’m very lucky,” she said at the Pride of Manchester Awards that year.

    Despite their low-key approach, Nikki has often credited Anthony for boosting her confidence and inspiring her fitness journey. She previously explained that staying active “was never really a priority” in her twenties or thirties, but now she trains three times a week and aims for 10,000 steps a day — which she joked is much easier when “your partner is very fit.”

    Now, after nearly three years together, their happiest chapter is finally unfolding — and soap fans couldn’t be more thrilled for the soon-to-be family of three.

    Kate Beckinsale Poses in a Pink Bikini, Boldly Hitting Back at Body-Shaming Trolls After a Year of Utter Heartbreak

    Kate Beckinsale has entered the New Year on her own terms – unapologetic, eccentric and emotionally raw.

    The 52-year-old actress shared a striking Instagram montage from an overseas getaway, posing in a pink bikini, towering platform boots, a chiffon robe and even a tiara as she fed raccoons on the beach.

    Known for her colourful sense of style, Kate also showed off her flexibility in playful snaps and appeared in delicate white silk pyjamas. But behind the defiant glamour was a far more painful truth.

    In an emotional video shared with fans, Kate addressed cruel comments about her slim figure, admitting it hurt deeply to see people criticise her appearance at a time of profound grief. She said it would never occur to her to see someone clearly suffering and then write something nasty about how they look, adding that she wished those critics had been raised with the same kindness and compassion she experienced growing up.

    Kate openly described 2025 as an unbearably hard year, admitting she felt torn about letting it go because it was also the last year her “incredible mum” was alive. She spoke through tears about witnessing the deaths of the people she loved most, from watching her father die of a sudden heart attack when she was just five, to later losing both her stepfather and mother.

    Reflecting on grief, Kate said such overwhelming suffering doesn’t leave space for hunger, explaining that shock and trauma can shut the body down entirely. She shared a poignant illustration alongside her post, reading: “Sometimes this is what resilience looks like.”

    Despite the pain, her New Year post felt like an act of quiet defiance – choosing self-expression over shame, and honesty over silence.

Fans flooded social media: “This isn’t just a rescue… it’s a love story. Pete is a hero.”

    Reality star Pete Wicks has once again proven he’s more than just a familiar face on screen — he’s got a heart of gold.

    In a deeply emotional episode of ITV’s For Dogs’ Sake, Pete was seen wiping away tears as he met a rescue dog in critical condition. The dog, a neglected mix-breed suffering from severe illness, had racked up a vet bill that her shelter simply couldn’t afford.

    Without hesitation, Pete looked into her eyes, turned to the rescue team, and said:

     “She Deserves a Chance…”

    The moment stunned viewers, many of whom took to social media in tears. One fan posted:

    “I didn’t expect to cry tonight but Pete Wicks broke me. What a beautiful soul.”

    Pete’s willingness to step in — not for the cameras, but because he truly cares — was praised by fans, animal lovers, and fellow celebrities alike.

    Known for his tattoos, tough image, and no-nonsense banter on TOWIE and Celebs Go Dating, Pete has found a new purpose in animal welfare. Through For Dogs’ Sake, he’s helped highlight neglected pets across the UK and used his platform to drive real impact.

     “Some Things Matter More Than Money”

    Pete later explained in a behind-the-scenes clip:

    “It’s not about money. It’s about giving a life the second chance it never had.”

  • Claim That Gerry McCann’s Mother May Speak Out Raises New Questions in McCann Case DD

    Claim That Gerry McCann’s Mother May Speak Out Raises New Questions in McCann Case DD

    Claim That Gerry McCann’s Mother May Speak Out Raises New Questions in McCann Case

    A startling claim has reignited debate around the McCann case, suggesting that the person who may hold critical information is not a friend, investigator, or witness — but Gerry McCann’s own mother.

    According to reports circulating online, she is alleged to have said: “I will not protect my son.” If accurate, the statement represents a dramatic shift in a case long defined by public silence, denials, and unresolved questions.

    A Case That Never Truly Closed

    The disappearance of Madeleine McCann remains one of the most scrutinized missing-person cases in modern history. Despite years of investigations across multiple countries, the case has never reached a definitive conclusion.

    Over time, countless theories have emerged — some credible, others speculative. What has remained consistent is the central role of the McCann family and the intense public interest surrounding them.

    Why This Claim Is Different

    What sets this latest claim apart is its source. If the allegation is true, it suggests that someone from within the immediate family may be prepared to speak openly — potentially without shielding their own child.

    Legal and investigative experts note that family members are often the last to come forward in high-profile cases, particularly when statements could implicate loved ones or contradict long-standing public narratives.

    “This would be highly unusual,” one analyst noted. “But not impossible.”

    No Confirmation — Only Questions

    It is important to stress that there has been no official confirmation that Gerry McCann’s mother has made such a statement, nor that she possesses undisclosed information. Authorities have not acknowledged any new testimony from family members.

    However, the claim has circulated widely enough to prompt renewed discussion about what information may still exist — and who may hold it.

    Some observers believe the allegation reflects frustration built over years of unanswered questions. Others caution that unverified claims can easily distort public understanding of a sensitive case.

    The Psychological Weight of Silence

    In prolonged investigations, silence can carry its own burden. Families involved in high-profile cases often face relentless scrutiny, speculation, and emotional strain.

    Experts note that, over time, the desire to protect loved ones can clash with the need for closure — both personally and publicly.

    “If someone truly believed they held information that mattered,” one commentator said, “there could come a point where silence becomes unbearable.”

    Public Reaction

    The reaction to the claim has been sharply divided. Some see it as a potential turning point, arguing that truth can sometimes come from the most unexpected places. Others warn against assigning credibility without verification, emphasizing the harm caused by unproven accusations.

    Authorities have urged caution, reminding the public that speculation does not equate to evidence and that no new official findings have been announced.

    What Happens Now?

    As of now, the McCann case remains unchanged from a legal standpoint. No new charges, statements, or investigative actions have been confirmed in relation to this claim.

    Still, the idea that a close family member might break ranks has reopened conversations many believed were settled — or at least dormant.

    Whether the claim fades or leads to further developments remains to be seen. What is clear is that the McCann case continues to provoke intense emotion, debate, and unanswered questions nearly two decades later.

    And if one day the silence does break — from any source — it would mark a significant moment in a case the world has never stopped watching.

    Police Reaction to Gruesome Evidence Revisited in True Crime Documentary on Madeleine McCann Disappearance

    The disappearance of Madeleine McCann remains one of the most haunting and closely examined missing-person cases in modern history. Now, a new true crime documentary is revisiting the investigation with a renewed focus on evidence that reportedly left police deeply disturbed.

    According to the documentary, investigators encountered material during the inquiry that dramatically altered the emotional tone of the case. While officials have long been careful about what details are shared publicly, the film examines claims that certain pieces of evidence were so unsettling that they shocked seasoned law enforcement officers.

    A Case That Never Lost Its Grip

    Madeleine McCann vanished in 2007 while on holiday with her family in Portugal. Despite massive international attention, multiple investigations, and years of review, the case has never reached a definitive conclusion.

    Over time, the inquiry has involved several agencies, extensive searches, and countless theories. What the documentary highlights is not a new suspect or a final answer, but the psychological impact of evidence that investigators allegedly confronted behind the scenes.

    Evidence That Changed the Mood

    The documentary suggests that during the investigation, police came across evidence described as “gruesome” — material that went beyond routine investigative findings and left officers visibly shaken.

    While the program avoids presenting graphic detail, it emphasizes how such discoveries can influence investigative direction and urgency. According to former law enforcement voices featured, encountering disturbing evidence often marks a turning point, shifting a case from hopeful recovery to grim realism.

    Authorities have historically declined to confirm specifics, citing the need to protect the integrity of the investigation and the dignity of those involved.

    Why the Public May Not Have Heard Everything

    One of the central questions raised by the documentary is why certain elements were not more widely discussed at the time. Experts interviewed note that in high-profile cases involving children, police often withhold sensitive details to avoid public panic, protect families, and prevent interference.

    “Silence doesn’t mean nothing was found,” one analyst explains. “It can mean the opposite.”

    The Toll on Investigators

    The documentary also explores the emotional burden carried by those assigned to the case. Investigators are trained to maintain distance, but cases involving young children often pierce that professional armor.

    Several voices describe how the McCann investigation left lasting impressions on officers, not just because of its visibility, but because of what they allegedly encountered during evidence review.

    Caution and Context

    Importantly, the documentary repeatedly stresses caution. It does not claim the evidence definitively explains what happened to Madeleine, nor does it assign guilt. Instead, it places reported findings within a broader context of uncertainty, investigation limits, and unanswered questions.

    Legal experts featured in the program warn against conflating disturbing evidence with conclusions. In many cases, such material can be ambiguous, incomplete, or misleading without full context.

    Public Reaction

    Since the documentary’s release, reactions have been intense. Some viewers feel the revisited evidence reinforces long-held fears about the case. Others urge restraint, reminding audiences that speculation has surrounded the McCann case for nearly two decades.

    Authorities continue to maintain that the investigation remains open and that any conclusions must be grounded in verified facts, not emotional response.

    Why the Case Still Matters

    The enduring interest in Madeleine McCann’s disappearance reflects more than curiosity. It speaks to unresolved grief, unanswered questions, and the collective discomfort with cases that defy closure.

    By examining the alleged reaction of police to disturbing evidence, the documentary underscores why the case still resonates — not because of what is known, but because of what remains unclear.

    As the film concludes, one message is clear: the McCann case is not just a mystery frozen in time. It is an ongoing reminder of how fragile certainty can be — and how some questions continue to haunt those tasked with finding answers.
