But how will the celeb dancers fare? We won’t have too long until we find out, as the series launch…

They were the power couple of daytime TV – so fans were shocked in May last year when Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford announced their 27-year relationship had come to an end. The estranged couple, who married in 2010, sensationally separated after Ruth, 65, reportedly discovered Eamonn chatting on the phone to another woman. She is also said to have found messages on his laptop. While the GB News presenter, 65, has since moved on with his his new girlfriend Katie Alexander, a 43-year-old marriage counsellor, he has also suffered a string of health woes, which have left him wheelchair bound. Meanwhile, although Ruth is yet to dip her toe into the world of dating, her career is flourishing as she continues to star on ITV’s Loose Women, as well as…

No Jenny Holliday, 47, career coach ‘It’s like a holiday romance’ Holiday friendships were a thing when I was little. I can still remember a girl called Karen – we were inseparable for a whole week in Menorca in the mid ’80s. We even became pen pals for a while. But as an adult, I think it’s naïve to assume that someone you chat to beside the pool might become a lifelong buddy. It reminds me of the Friends episode when Monica and Chandler get ‘wrong numbered’ by a couple they think they’ve made friends with on their honeymoon. The other couple give them a fake number because they don’t really want to be long-term friends. We might think we’re making friends with those other grown-ups around the pool, but…

This year has been a difficult one for Loose Women with job cuts, studio downsizing and axed audiences shaking up the chat show from January. Now, it’s said the stars will no longer present live. According to reports, Loose Women will begin pre-recording their episodes so they can air on ITVX either at the same time or before they hit terrestrial TV. It comes as the talk show panellists were said to be disappointed at their recent studio move, switching out their usual showy studio for a ‘broom cupboard’. An insider said, ‘Cast and crew are crestfallen. It feels like the show they’ve fought so long and hard to create is slowly being decimated.’ The show first fell victim to ITV’s shake up earlier this year, having their 52-week run…

When Bella catches up with Peter Andre at home, he is exactly where you’d expect to find a dad-of-five during the school holidays – at home, mid-chaos, with a wooden spoon in one hand and his phone in the other. The singer-turned-TV personality is juggling rehearsals, dinner for the brood, and voice notes to his agent, but he couldn’t be happier about it. ‘Honestly, I feel like we’re in Home Alone,’ he laughs, painting a picture of his busy household. ‘It’s just kids everywhere, food… I’m obsessed with the kitchen, so I’m always cooking.’ Eldest son Junior, 20, has flown the nest to move in with girlfriend Jasmine Orr, 24, but is always nearby. ‘He lives about 10 minutes up the road, so just pops in… but he also does…

Pushing her baby buggy, my little girl Sammy Jo came into the living room. Only five, Sammy already seemed to know what she wanted from life, and top of that list was being a mum. Her army of baby dolls went everywhere with her. ‘I’m going to have four babies, all boys,’ she said to me and her dad, Matthew. As she got older, she was so sweet and bubbly – you couldn’t help but fall under her spell. In 2013, when she was 24, Sammy went on a girls’ holiday to Ibiza. When she came back to our home in Essex, she was full of beans with plenty of tales to tell. ‘You’ll never guess who I met,’ she said. ‘Jack!’ ‘No way!’ I said. We’d known Jack’s parents…

Hydrate hair Trying a new hair product is arguably the quickest and easiest way to update your look without visiting a salon. Switching from a styling cream to this natural oil can help smooth strands, boost shine and provide plenty of hydration, without weighing them down. New launch Create volume Over time, our hair often becomes finer and flatter due to hormonal changes and an ageing scalp. Volumising products can help revive locks and prevent them looking limp. For the best effect, apply right at the roots, as this is where your hair needs a lift away from the scalp. Treat at night Retinol can help renew skin cells as well as boost collagen production and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and fine lines. Apply every other night, and always…

It was still dark in August 2023 when I was jolted awake by a piercing scream. ‘What on earth?’ I thought, scrambling out of bed to check on my kids Lette, 14, and Corey, 12. To my horror I found Corey in the hallway – he was on fire. ‘I’m sorry, Mum,’ he stammered, face contorted in fear as large flames licked his body. I didn’t have time to question what had happened as I hurried to the kitchen in our one-storey house, Corey following close behind. I’d done first-aid training in an old job and it occurred to me that Corey’s polyester sport’s top would likely melt into his skin. Thankfully our kitchen sink had a hose attachment so I used that to spray him with cold water as…

Treat your tastebuds Seafood fans will be wowed by the fresh fare on…

The Prince and Princess of Wales are moving into their new ‘forever home’, marking a fresh start for their whole family. William and Kate, both 43, have reportedly decided to leave behind their cosy Adelaide Cottage home on the grounds of Windsor Castle and will relocate to 300-year-old Forest Lodge later this year. The eight-bedroom house is nestled in Windsor Great Park, surrounded by nature and far removed from Buckingham Palace – offering Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven, the perfect private childhood. With a chandelier-lit ballroom and tennis court, the mansion is certainly an upgrade from Adelaide Cottage’s modest four bedrooms, and is worth a reported £16 million. Furthermore, it’s understood that the couple are paying for the move and rent at no extra cost…

The Great British Bake Off is back for its 16th series and it’s promising to be better than ever. And as Alison Hammond, 50, returns to our screens as co-host alongside Noel Fielding, 52, and judges Paul Hollywood, 59, and Prue Leith, 85, she shares how, despite this being her third year, she hasn’t quite caught the baking bug herself. How naughty did you all get on this series? Noel: Well, I don’t know if you have met Alison Hammond. Paul: Noel was driving around like a lunatic in the buggy on set. Alison: Me and Prue were in our bikinis. It was amazing, we were sunbathing. Prue: Paul likes the sun too, but I’m the only one that loves the heat. Alison: And we got our own deck chairs,…

For most of my life, I was what I’d call ‘weight blind’. I was big as a child, and although my family would always say, ‘You’ll grow into your weight’, I never did. By my mid-20s, I was wearing a size 22-24. I couldn’t catch a full breath and was always exhausted. My diet consisted of takeaways, dinners out, full-fat cola and chocolate. I could eat a whole multipack of crisps without even thinking, and six sandwiches for lunch was normal for me. As the weight continued to pile on, I stayed in denial. Soon after I got pregnant in 2020, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I was given tablets and stopped eating chocolate, but when my daughter Dolly was born in April 2021, I went straight back to…

New research from Age UK shows that 47% of midlifers – approximately 6.6 million people – either feel as though they don’t do enough physical activity, or don’t do any at all. This is despite three-quarters of those in this age group saying they worry about staying healthy as they age, and two-thirds (equivalent to 9.2 million) saying they worry about losing their independence. As we age, we’re often spinning plates and our priorities can shift. Many of us feel like we don’t have the time, money or confidence to engage with physical activity. But, according to experts, developing good habits and exercising are key to being fit and healthy in later life. Dr Dawn Harper, Age UK ambassador and TV doctor, says, ‘When I think about ageing healthily, I…

Sheridan Smith spent her early acting years starring in comedies, including The Royle Family, went on to conquer the West End and scoop two Olivier awards, and in 2015, she was honoured with an OBE for services to drama. In her latest role, Sheridan stars in gritty real-life drama I Fought The Law, playing Ann Ming, a formidable woman who was successful in overturning Britain’s 800-year-old Double Jeopardy law following the tragic murder of her daughter, Julie. We caught up with Sheridan to get the lowdown on the show and why this role sometimes felt a bit too close to home… What were your initial impressions when you met Ann, knowing everything she had been through? I was kind of in awe because I’d done so much research and seen…
