It's official – Kate and Rio Ferdinand have relocated to Dubai, the place where their love story began almost 10 years ago. But while Kate has told fans she's embracing ‘a new chapter’ and ‘a fresh start’, insiders tell heat that behind the scenes, the former reality star feels guilty about leaving her husband's two eldest children – Lorenz, 19, and Tate, 17 – back in the UK. ‘She knows moving is a great opportunity and thinks the other three kids will thrive out there, but there's part of her that doesn't feel comfortable leaving Lorenz and Tate behind,’ our source reveals. ‘Rio isn't as emotional, but Kate has been in tears about it. She doesn't want the boys to resent them leaving.’ In April, heat reported that the couple…

Split! Duncan James & Rodrigo Reis After six years, Duncan, 47, and flight attendant Rodrigo have reportedly split, after unfollowing each other on Instagram.

Millie Bobby Brown shocked fans recently with the news that she and husband Jake Bongiovi have adopted a baby girl, one year after getting married. And now, heat has learned that it's the actress’ goal to give her daughter the upbringing she never had at their farm in the US, after she grew up moving around a lot. ‘Millie is so thrilled to be a mother and cannot wait to spoil her little one,’ we're told. ‘She's told pals that she plans to give her an upbringing significantly different from her own. Millie has already lived a whirlwind of a life that few could imagine, and she's still only 21. Her feet have barely touched the ground since Stranger Things turned her into a global superstar. It's why she's been…

SKY ATLANTIC/NOW, MONDAY 8 SEP, 9PM This intense, instantly absorbing series from Mare Of Easttown creator Brad Ingelsby is a crime drama, but unlike that superb show, there's no mystery to solve. Instead, we get to see the low-life crims from the start, as they plot to steal money from local even-lower-life drug dealers on the outskirts of Philadelphia. We also meet the grizzled, heavy-drinking FBI agent who is tasked with setting up a unit to apprehend the bad guys. He's called Tom and he's played by Mark Ruffalo (Bruce Banner/Hulk in the Avengers films) and you might as well put a bet on him winning an Emmy now because he's so brilliant. And even though it isn't a whodunnit, the plotting and character development are so clever, you'll be fully…

DISNEY+, WEDNESDAY, 10 SEPTEMBER Who would have guessed that a breezy crime comedy series built around the friendship between two old luvvie geezers played by ageing veterans Steve Martin, 80, and Martin Short, 75, would turn out to be such a hit, it would stretch to five triumphant seasons? Well, here's the new fifth one, with our returning heroes, plus Mabel (played by Selena Gomez), the other member of the true-crime podcast gang based in the super-swanky Arconia apartment block on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. And after various sojourns to LA in the last series, the trio is back in New York where Lester, the poor doorman of the building, is found dead in mysterious circumstances. As soon as the opening scenes of bickering and banter get going,…

BBC1, SUNDAY 7 SEPTEMBER, 8.10PM We were completely bowled over (pardon the pun) by the first series of Freddie Flintoff's Field Of Dreams, which charted the legendary cricketer's attempts to build a cricket team out of an unlikely group of Lancashire lads. Then series two came along and warmed our hearts, as post-car-accident Freddie found the strength to honour his promise to take the team on an eye-opening, mind-expanding cricket tour of India (the boys’ camaraderie and support of vulnerable Freddie still makes us emotional). Now, Freddie's back, and this time he's got bigger, bolder ambitions, wanting to form boys’ teams in Manchester and Liverpool, as well as creating his first-ever girls’ team in Blackpool, at a club without any youth teams. If anyone can pull off this major feat,…

CERT 15, 89 minutes, in cinemas 5 September STARRING: Margaret Qualley, Aubrey Plaza, Chris Evans DIRECTOR: Ethan Coen THE PLOT: A would-be client's mysterious death leads Bakersfield private eye Honey O'Donahue (Qualley) to investigate the workings of a shady church and its flamboyant pastor (Evans). WHAT'S RIGHT WITH IT? The Substance's Qualley continues her rise by giving a smart, sexy and sassy performance in this offbeat detective yarn. Plaza also sizzles as the cop Honey gets involved with. WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT? Evans’ preening fraud is a shallow and unworthy foil, while the twisty plot ultimately becomes a confusing and bloodstained tangle. VERDICT: Like their lesbian road movie Drive-Away Dolls, this is an entertaining but disposable trifle from the younger Coen brother and his writer wife Tricia Cooke.…

GOOD HANG WITH AMY POEHLER Actress and comedian Amy Poehler presents this weekly podcast in which she welcomes celebrities and ‘fun people’ to her studio, where they share stories about their careers, mutual friends, and what's been making them laugh.

FILM HIM Produced by Jordan Peele (Get Out) – who says this is unlike any horror film he's seen before – Him stars Tyriq Withers as a promising young American football player who's invited to train at the isolated compound of a legendary quarterback (Marlon Wayans), who turns out to be a tad crazy. Then it all gets nasty and scary. In cinemas, 3 October. TV AMADEUS The great Will Sharpe, from The White Lotus and Too Much, plays musical prodigy Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, while Paul Bettany (WandaVision) is the deeply jealous and mediocre court composer Antonio Salieri. This tasty-looking new epic drama series is adapted by Joe Barton (Black Doves) from the classic play and film of the same name. Sky Atlantic, autumn. TV THE SAVANT Jessica Chastain (George…

Kai Rooney is tipped to follow in his dad's superstar footsteps after being picked to play for Manchester United's Under 18s team, despite only being 15. And now, we're told Coleen and Wayne's eldest son has set his sights on playing abroad for a Spanish team, and his parents are determined to do whatever they can to make his dreams happen. ‘Kai will likely play for Manchester United's first team, as that's who he's signed to, but he then sees himself playing for one of the big Spanish teams. His dad has already said he's fluent in Spanish,’ we're told. ‘He feels there would be less pressure on him because Wayne is such a Man U legend, and Kai would love to base his career on Jude Bellingham's and move…

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's daughter North West was always destined to follow in her fashionista parents’ footsteps. But her latest outfit has got her famous dad all riled up – and he's blaming the influence of his ex-wife. Sources tell heat that Kanye, 48, has sent Kim, 44, a barrage of angry messages after North, 12, stepped out in an outfit he thought was ‘inappropriate’ during a recent family trip to Rome with her mum. ‘It's ironic that Kanye's not happy, given the way he dresses his wife [Bianca Censori] and encouraged Kim to push the envelope with sexy barely-there fashion choices when they were together,’ our insider reveals. ‘But he says North is way too young to be dressed like this, and it needs to stop or he'll…

‘Simon really does have a huge heart’ She's been heartbroken since the loss of her husband Ozzy in July, but after an outpouring of love and support from both fans and friends, Sharon Osbourne is gradually coming to terms with her new normal. And according to sources, old pal Simon Cowell is doing all he can for the 72 year old. ‘Simon and Sharon have enjoyed playing up their frenemy status over the years, but the fact is, they've always had unforgettable chemistry. As a producer, Simon never lost money betting on Sharon or listening to her advice,’ we're told. ‘It's a tough time for the Osbourne family, and it feels like the end of an era in music, pop culture and reality TV. Simon is ready to help usher…

Joel Dommett's a busy boy. When he's not overseeing the brilliantly bonkers proceedings on The Masked Singer, he's doing stints as a guest host on This Morning, performing stand-up comedy, preparing for a Radio 2 show, and co-hosting the successful podcast Never Have I Ever with his wife Hannah, who he married in 2019. He's also dad to son Wilde, two, so he'd be forgiven for being, well, a teensy bit tired. Especially as when heat caugh up with the 40-year-old comedian, host, presenter (and serial contestant on celebrity TV shows, but more of that later) he had just spent the morning doing a photoshoot for this year's National Television Awards. But no, he's a big, engaging ball of energy – charming, eloquent and disarmingly honest. It will be Joel's…

What did you think when you first read the script? I got a call from Imaginarium Productions who produced it. They bought the rights to the book, and the pilot had been written. I'd read the book and I could just see the show – I really loved how the story is told through the lens of two very different perspectives throughout, leaving the reader or viewer really questioning what the truth is. Because that's life isn't it? Conversations, situations, events are all a matter of individual interpretation, often driven by emotions. You directed the first three episodes. How did you find juggling those intense scenes with directing? There were a lot of challenges, but we made the best of it because Olivia [Cooke] and Laurie [Davidson] are just freaking…

BBC1, TUESDAY 9 SEPTEMBER, 8PM It's a busy week for Stacey Solomon, with two NTA nominations – one for her popular series Sort Your Life Out, and the other for the first series of this show, in which cameras follow Stacey, husband Joe Swash and their family as they live their slightly chaotic yet wholesome everyday lives in Pickle Cottage. The new episodes pick up where the last series left off, as Belle faces her first day of nursery, there's a Valentine's Day gift that leaves Stacey in hysterics, all the kids learn how to ski, and it's Zach's 17th birthday, which brings out Stacey and Joe's competitive sides. You can also expect more ambitious DIY projects. Joe isn't giving up on his plans for a lake yet.…

5's latest drama is a cautionary tale about the consequences of idle gossip – especially in a small town where everyone is in each other's business. Rachel Shenton (All Creatures Great And Small) heads up the five-part thriller as Joanna, an estate agent and mum-of-one who relocates from London for a fresh start, only to find herself at the centre of some major drama. LOOSE LIPS SINK (RELATION)SHIPS Joanna hopes that moving to Flinstead to be near her mum Bea (Joanne Whalley) is the new chapter she and her son Alfie desperately need.

Catching The Tinder Predator PRIME VIDEO, SUNDAY 7 SEP For over a decade, online predator Christopher Harkins targeted smart, attractive, and career-driven women via dating apps, subjecting them to financial, physical, and sexual abuse. Despite countless reports to the police, no action was taken until late 2019, when one brave woman broke her silence, exposing a chilling pattern of behaviour.

CORRIE MUM'S THE WORD Matters maternal preoccupy the residents as Betsy celebrates her 18th and raises a glass to a photograph of tragic mum Becky.

RED FLAG Clearly Luke Worley didn't learn anything from his time on MAFS UK back in 2023. After being kicked off that dating show following an altercation with another castmate, his response to being dumped in the very first episode of Dating Naked UK (Paramount+) turned aggressive pretty quickly. FREE ADVERTISING What is the obsession with OnlyFans creators at the moment? First, we had the Bonnie Blue Channel 4 docu, and now Lily Phillips is the main subject of ep one of the new series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over (U&W). These shows are serving as free advertising for the girls and we're not sure that sits right with us. HISTORICAL HEARTTHROBS Some critics have questioned the historical accuracy of epic drama King & Conqueror (BBC1/iPlayer). But our only problem…

This time, the story gets more personal, with an expanded role for the Warrens’ daughter Judy (recast as Mia Tomlinson), and introducing Ben Hardy as her boyfriend. VERDICT: If you liked the eight films so far in the Conjuring/ Annabelle/The…

After a string of high-profile relationships and break-ups, Taylor Swift has got her Romeo. Last week, the singer sent fans into a frenzy by announcing her engagement to NFL player Travis Kelce - and now sources tell heat the couple could be set to celebrate even more happy news. According to insiders, it's Taylor's dream to start a family shortly after they've said, ‘I do.’ ‘Taylor doesn't want to wait – she'd love the baby to follow the wedding as soon as possible,’ we're told. ‘She can't wait to be a mum and is 100 per cent certain Travis will make a wonderful father. They're both so ready to start a family together and it's something they've talked about a lot. They'd love a honeymoon baby and would ideally have…

Molly-Mae Hague certainly isn't one to shy away from the realities of motherhood. But one thing she has never addressed are the claims she has a nanny, after she and partner Tommy Fury were spotted with a woman pushing their daughter's buggy at Manchester Airport two years ago. But last week, it was reported that the influencer – who is often praised for seemingly handling a busy career while raising two-year-old Bambi – does have a full-time helper, who works at her Cheshire mansion ‘all day, every day’. And, according to sources, whole chunks of footage for the second series of her Prime documentary Behind It All have been edited because they show Bambi being looked after by the ‘secret’ nanny. ‘There were a lot of raised eyebrows among the…

DIANA VICKERS Few X Factor stars manage to stand the test of time, but Diana Vickers has well and truly carved a name for herself as both a singer and actress after rocketing to fame back in 2008. Last year, Diana played Gwyneth Paltrow in West End musical I Wish You Well, and these days, she can add viral TikTok star to her CV thanks to her hilarious, self-penned songs performed alongside her pal Chiara Hunter on their channel Ki And Dee Show.

As you can see in the heat Interview (p38), comedian Joel Dommett is back as host of British TV's most democratic awards, voted for as they are by the public. The ceremony takes place at The O2 Arena, London, which inevitably means a mad dash through the traffic of south London for the celebs and nominees.

CHANNEL 4, THURSDAY 11 SEPTEMBER, 9PM Believe it or not, we have somehow reached series 20 of the reliably amusing competition featuring comedians and generally funny people taking part in an array of out-there challenges in the hope of winning a gold bust of host Greg Davies’ head. The contenders this series are stand-ups Ania Magliano, Maisie Adam and Phil Ellis, plus actor/writer Reece Shearsmith (Inside No.9) and all-round good egg Sanjeev Bhaskar, best known for lugging his backpack around in crime drama Unforgotten. As ever, Greg is joined by his assistant Alex Horne, and the first tasks involve codes, gym balls and disgusting noises.…

What appealed to you about Joanna? I was intrigued by her ordinariness. She is quite unremarkable in certain ways. She doesn't have a particularly good job or house or lifestyle – I think it's rare that you see that on TV. I thought Joanna was incredibly relatable. What moral questions do you think this series raises? I think it says something about community and the damage that gossip can do. Facts are important. People get hurt in this story because of what was essentially gossip and hearsay. And I think there is another thing this story raises about intuition and how important it is to trust that. Why are we all so drawn to gossip? With Joanna, I think it was a plea for connection. How do we feel united?…

BBC2, THURSDAY 11 SEPTEMBER, 9PM This show about the goings-on in a 1980s Australian TV newsroom might be one of the most under-rated dramas in recent years. Now, in this third season, set in 1989, the central couple of Helen Norville – the first female newsreader of the primetime news show, played brilliantly by Anna Torv (Mindhunter) – and her producer-turned-star anchor (and former love) Dale Jennings (Sam Reid), reunite for the Logies, a BAFTA-style award ceremony. Then it emerges that Helen has a new job, which will mean she and Dale going head-to-head with each other in the 6pm news slot.…
