Phillip Schofield has allegedly branded his former friend Holly Willoughby as ‘the witch’ who brought down his career as he made his telly comeback. Sources claim the presenter – who returned to TV for Channel 5 show Cast Away earlier this month after resigning from This Morning in May 2023 – sent Holly a WhatsApp message, where he allegedly accused her of failing to support him. ‘He dislikes Holly so much now he calls her “the witch” when talking about her and sends the emoji to his mates if she comes up,’ an insider told The Sun. ‘He messaged Holly and told her, “You brought me down.” He was furious, and still is.’ They added, ‘As far as he's concerned he made her career at This Morning. In Phil's eyes,…

Sitting by the side of the swimming baths, I watched as my daughter's feet cut rapidly through the water. Sharlotte-Sky loved swimming and relished her weekly lesson in the pool. She swam to the far end, turned and was soon swishing through the water towards me again. When she reached me, she stopped and grinned, bobbing her head up and forming her fingers into the shape of a heart and then she was off again, skimming through the water as quick as a dolphin. After another couple of laps, the teacher asked her to demonstrate the stroke to the rest of the children in the swimming class. Later, I told her how proud I was of her as I towelled her dry. My little girl was six and was always…

Earlier this month, Kate Middleton made a surprise return to work. In her first pictured engagement since the end of her chemotherapy treatment, the Princess of Wales met teenager Liz Hatton, who has terminal cancer, on 2 October. In the emotional moment, the pair shared a hug at Windsor Castle, where Liz – an aspiring photographer who has been given weeks to live by doctors after she was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer in January – also met Prince William. Kate later revealed she was moved by the meeting as she posted the photo on Instagram. ‘A pleasure to meet Liz at Windsor today,’ she wrote. ‘A talented young photographer whose creativity and strength has inspired us both. Thank you for sharing your photos and story…

Prior to the 19th series of Strictly Come Dancing, many celebrities considered appearing on the BBC flagship show the opportunity of a lifetime. However, for actor Amanda Abbington, the reality was very different. After pulling out of the series for ‘medical reasons’ when she suffered a cancer scare, Amanda, 53, filed a formal complaint against her dance partner Giovanni Pernice. Following a nine-month investigation, she revealed her ‘vindication’ when the BBC apologised and upheld six of her 17 complaints earlier this month, including that the Sicilian pro's language towards her was ‘belittling, dismissive and insulting’. Despite facing death threats for her actions, Amanda – who shares son Joe, 18, and daughter Grace, 16, with her ex-husband, actor Martin Freeman – is now trying to put it all behind her and…

BEFORE 21st 4lb Size 26 AFTER 11st Size 10-12 My tummy flipped as my son's face smiled up at mine. Aodhan, eight, was desperate to make YouTube videos – he'd come up with a great plan to make a funny video of him pulling out his wobbly tooth. The only problem was, it involved me being filmed, and at more than 21 stone, I did my best to avoid cameras. Despite not wanting to do it, I didn't want to let Aodhan down either, so we filmed his video. But a few days later, when I watched back his video I had to fight back tears. How can that woman really be me? I thought. That night in bed, I sobbed to my husband, Marc. ‘I really need to lose…

This October marks National Cholesterol Month and, while we know that our cholesterol and heart health needs to be a priority throughout the year, it's especially important as the months start to turn colder. This is because cold weather can raise our risk of heart and circulatory problems, with heart attacks and strokes more common in the winter time. In fact, the rise in risk starts once the average temperature drops below 12ºC in the UK, with heart attacks and strokes potentially more than twice as likely to happen during cold spells lasting at least four days. So, what steps can we take to help our hearts fend off the harmful effects of the cold, wet and windy weather? Emily McGrath, Senior Cardiac Nurse at The British Heart Foundation, reveals…

Racing towards the finish, I focused on my 19-year-old son, Lloyd, who was just a few strides ahead of me. With his arms held high, Lloyd crossed the line, and the crowd roared. As I followed suit, I caught up with him and we both burst into tears of triumph. My boy had run the 2024 London Marathon in six hours and 46 minutes, and I couldn't have been prouder. ‘He was always on the go’ Lloyd had faced many hurdles in his lifetime, but he didn't let anything get in his way. He had been born in 2004 with Down's syndrome, and although doctors warned he'd be floppy, lethargic and have no muscle tone, he was the opposite. Quickly learning to walk and crawl, Lloyd was always on the…

bella debate No Deborah Riseley, 46, Journalist ‘Relationships are about trust’ My jaw dropped when I read about the woman who'd apparently bought a pad in Ibiza behind her partner's back. How loaded do you have to be for that to go unnoticed?! But ‘financial infidelity’ isn't restricted to the super-rich. Studies suggest lying about savings or debts and hiding purchases from your other half is pretty common, for both sexes. My husband and I both work full-time and we've always kept separate bank accounts. Once shared living costs have been covered, anything left is our own. While he might eye-roll at the cost of my cut and colour at the hairdresser and I'll often question whether he really needs more computer kit, we're pretty upfront about our spending. I'd…

Parminder Nagra is back as DI Rachita Ray in ITV's smash-hit crime drama, ready to tackle a new case which could have wider repercussions and casualties if it's not solved quickly. Already finding it hard to trust those around her two months after her suspension, DI Ray investigates the shooting of a young nurse and the head of a notorious crime syndicate outside a Birmingham hospital. It looks to be a gangland turf war – but another reason for the escalating tensions soon becomes clear. What did you look forward to when returning to the show? More running!
