Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan have sparked speculation they could be selling merchandise after they renewed the trademark on their name. The couple first trademarked ‘Richard and Judy’ in 2000, the year Judy accidentally exposed her bra at the National Television Awards. Reports claim that the former This Morning hosts could launch their own range of underwear, perfume and cosmetics after their application was approved earlier this month. ‘Judy’s bra flash may have inspired the couple to consider underwear as an option, and clearly they still think so. But it’s not the only product they’ll be able to put their name on and they could make a mint,’ a source said.…

Sitting down on the sofa, I opened up the takeaway app. It was January 2022 and I hadn’t eaten all day as it had been hectic at my job as a mental health nurse. On most shifts, I’d barely have time to sip an energy drink and nibble on biscuits. By the time I’d get home, the hunger would hit, and tonight was no different. I ordered a large Domino’s pizza, two garlic breads, garlic and cheese pinwheels, and a large bottle of lemonade. As I wasn’t working the next day, while I waited for it to arrive, I opened a bottle of wine too. Some nights, I could get through up to two bottles. Food and alcohol had become my crutch over the previous few years. Eating and drinking…

Kiena Dawes was a ‘bright and popular’ young hairdresser from Fleetwood, Lancashire. Described by family and friends as ‘happy-go-lucky’, she had her whole life ahead of her. Then, in January 2020, Kiena started a relationship with Ryan Wellings. From the moment they met, he ‘love-bombed’ Kiena, a manipulative tactic that involves excessive displays of affection and attention to influence someone. Within just two weeks, he had Kiena’s name and face tattooed on his body, and he proposed within three months. But what Kiena first thought was a fairy-tale romance soon turned into a nightmare with Ryan, who had a vicious temper and regularly indulged in cocaine and alcohol binges. His abuse of Kiena included frequent slapping, pulling her by her hair, demanding money and attempting to strangle her with an…

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have struggled with their relationship with the royals since they first left the UK in 2020. However, following a slew of new allegations about their behaviour in a piece by Vanity Fair, the couple seem to be keen to make amends for the first time – and could even make a shock apology to King Charles himself. The recent article, titled ‘American Hustle’, has drawn a lot of unwanted attention to the Sussexes, with sources who have worked closely with Harry and Meghan describing the Sussexes as ‘cold and withholding’. And it seems this has spurred them on to finally make up with Harry’s family. A source tells Bella, ‘The time has come to draw a line under everything and start afresh. They want…

How much do you spend? Around £100. We’re not excessive, and I don’t like food waste. My grandma used to say, ‘If there isn’t any mould on it – it’s fine!’ It’s just me and Betsy [aged 14] so I don’t do a massive shop. I like to go in store so I can feel my veg!

I don't want her involved Q My ex and I split up when our daughter was four and we’ve been co-parenting quite successfully for the past three years, until recently. He is now with a new woman and has moved in with her and her two children. We share our daughter 50/50 so now I have to put up with the fact that my daughter is going to someone else’s home and will be made to feel like a 2nd class citizen because her children will matter more than my daughter. I know how it works because this happened to me when my dad remarried and he had a whole new family with his new wife, and it was as if I didn’t even matter. My ex won’t even have…

To celebrate 250 years since Jane Austen’s birth, lavish new series Miss Austen brings to the screen one of the most enduring literary mysteries – why Cassandra Austen burnt her famous sister Jane’s letters. In this version of events, staring Keeley Hawes, Jessica Hynes and Phyllis Logan, we see Cassandra (Hawes) keen to protect her sister’s reputation, hunting down a bundle of letters long after her death which, if they fell into the wrong hands, could tarnish her growing reputation. The content of them reveals why Jane’s books were filled with romantic infatuations, family feuds and dashed hopes as she navigated her youth with her sisters by her side. For Keeley, 48, who is also executive producer on the show, the whole story was an emotional revelation. Tell us more…

Jade Thirlwall has revealed how Harry Styles ghosted her after they dated. The Little Mix singer, 32, told Louis Theroux that the pair went out after meeting on The X Factor in 2010. ‘We went on one date when we were 16. The minute One Direction went on live shows, he didn’t message me back and I thought, he’s gone,’ she said. ‘The next year, I saw him and he said, “I’m really sorry that I ignored you.”’ But Jade – who’s dating Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens – added there are no hard feelings. ‘I was so young it didn’t matter. He’s lovely,’ she added.…
