It’s been a whirlwind year for Paige Louise Williams, the face behind the P. Louise brand. From the dizzying heights of securing the top spot on TikTok for skincare and cosmetics, to the disappointment of her Trafford Palazzo store failing to open as planned, she’s weathered quite the storm with her team.
But things are looking up for the 32-year-old from Droylsden, Greater Manchester, as she recently made a big revelation during a menu tasting at her Trafford store. Sharing her experience in a video captioned: “Let’s do menu tasting for P. Louise Trafford,” she gave fans a sneak peek into the process.
She was sampling potential dishes for the new venue, revealing that the Trafford store is set to open “next year,” after previously stating that she won’t announce the date until it’s confirmed due to fears of “the evil eye”.
However, when the new café does finally open its doors, she wants it to emulate the success of the Stockport branch, which gets “booked up” rapidly, so she’s keen to replicate that triumph at her upcoming store.

Paige humorously confessed that she has the taste buds of a “two-year-old,” jesting that she only “really likes hummus,” so she brought along some of her team to give their opinions on the food too.
While scrambled eggs are an “absolute no” for Paige, she recognises that just because she doesn’t enjoy them, it doesn’t mean her customers won’t. She even quipped that she might as well “be in the jungle [I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here] because it’s a bushtucker trial”.
She emphasised the importance of good food, but also highlighted that “presentation is key” and something they “really need to work on”.
“Great price point, great food that comes out at a great pace,” Paige commented.
Paige humorously remarked that food tasting was “fun” until you “get a bit full”. “When you’re starving, everything tastes great. When you’re full, you become a little bit more picky,” she observed.
However, she had a productive day with the team, as they went through “everything on the menu”.
She and her team “took things off” that they thought “didn’t look right” or they “couldn’t make the presentation look better on. “If things sound great and look great, but it isn’t going to sell, then what’s the point in having it on the menu?” Paige questioned.
Paige revealed that there was one dish that was her “winter wonderland dream,” but she didn’t think many people visiting would choose it, so she asked: “What’s the point?”
“You know what is a real pinch-me moment? It’s the fact that P. Louise, when we first started, was a makeup brand, and we have built a full community, and it’s basically now a full day out for you and your family,” she enthused.
Paige also mentioned that she “eats out a lot,” particularly with her dad and her brothers, so she wants to ensure that if her dad were to visit the cafe at her Trafford store, he’d be impressed with what she’d accomplished.

She expressed her wish for him to exclaim: “Oh my god, that’s one of the best places I’ve eaten. The YMCA might have been blasting in the background, but that was one of the best restaurants I’ve eaten at”.

After Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz missed dad David’s big occasion at Windsor Castle, two of the Beckham children were caught having a “relaxing” lunch together in London.

In the wake of the ongoing family feud with US-based Brooklyn, Romeo Beckham and his brother Cruz were spotted having lunch at a London restaurant. A few days after their father, David Beckham, received his new knighthood, Cruz and Romeo, 23, were seen together with Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnball at the Phat Phuc Noodle Bar on The King’s Road.
Cruz, 20, had his driving license suspended this week after being caught speeding, according to a fellow diner, who claimed the trio “queued like everyone else” at the well-known eatery on November 7. The lunchtime meeting also confirmed rumors that Romeo and model Kim’s relationship had come back to life after their rumored breakup six months ago.

Cruz was unhurried and engaging in conversation with his friends, according to a fellow customer who witnessed the trio at the Chelsea restaurant. After I arrived, he was waiting for about 20 minutes. He waited patiently, just like everyone else. The bar seemed to know him.
Three days after their footballer father David was made into Sir David Beckham, the meal was served. At the ceremony held at Windsor Castle, the 50-year-old former England captain was presented with the knighthood for his contributions to sport and charity.
The award was announced in this summer’s King’s Birthday Honours list, and the former Manchester United ace was supported on the day by Spice Girl-turned-fashion mogul Victoria, 51, children Romeo, Cruz and Harper, and his proud parents, Sandra and Ted.
They don’t seem to be going anywhere, with the first rumors about a family feud coming three years ago, which were brought on by a disagreement over a wedding dress. Brooklyn and model and actress Nicola haven’t attended any of David’s knighthood, which is the most recent of a long line of significant events.
In May, the couple were noticeably missing from David’s 50th birthday bash, and they were also absent from Victoria’s red carpet premiere for her recent Netflix docuseries, Victoria Beckham.
Brooklyn made it clear that his priorities lie with his wife in a Glamour interview earlier this summer, stating that “there will always be people who talk.” We must be content together, which is crucial.
Nicola, 30, also made an open statement about her relationship with her own parents, saying, “My parents taught me: Always tell the truth, we’ll help you.” Being open and honest is still deeply embedded in my heart today. You don’t ever feel regret it. On the contrary, true friendship only develops when there is genuine connection, or genuine communication.
With the entire family present, aside from his eldest son Brooklyn, who has yet to publicly acknowledge his father’s award on social media, David enjoyed a celebratory bash at one of Gordon Ramsay’s Michelin-starred restaurants in London following the investiture.
David acknowledged the accomplishments of the day and praised Victoria for her King Charles-inspired attire, saying that he “couldn’t be prouder.”
He told the PA that he was quite impressed with my suit because he had influenced many of my outfits over the years, including this one.

The former England captain explained that “it was something my wife made me.” When I looked at old photos of him wearing morning suits when he was still a young child, I thought, “OK, that’s what I want to wear,” so I gave it to my wife, and she did.
The Masked Singer host is taking on hosting duties for brand-new jungle spin-off series I’m A Celebrity…Unpacked – and he’s bringing his wife, Hannah Cooper and their son along

Almost a decade on from facing his own gruesome Bushtucker Trials, comedian and presenter Joel Dommett is heading back to the jungle – but this time, he says, with a note of relief, he won’t be the one eating weird bugs. The Masked Singer host is taking on hosting duties for brand-new jungle spin-off series I’m A Celebrity…Unpacked – and as he tells OK! Magazine, he’s bringing his wife, model Hannah Cooper, 36, and their two-year-old along for the ride.
The couple welcomed son Wilde in September 2023, but despite the name, Joel admits with a grin that their little man is as laid-back as they come, so shouldn’t be too phased by his jungle adventures. “He’s very chill. And I do realise, we’re very lucky with that. And I suspect if we were to have another, they would be absolute nightmares!”, he laughs.

And Joel, who recently celebrated his 40th birthday, seems to have taken to fatherhood like a duck to water. “He’s so fun. I just love hanging out with him. It’s such a mad thing where I just feel like my wife’s given birth to a little best friend – it’s just the dream.”
While the TV star admits he’s a tad “bored of singing The Postman Pat theme tune”, his adorable son makes up for it, by constantly making him laugh. “This is fun at the moment. He is obsessed with trucks but can’t say the word truck, and instead he says the word c**k. So that’s funny.“
“And so he just points at big trucks and says big c**k really loud in the High Street. It’s just hilarious, whilst also being, like, embarrassing for me and his mother.”
Joel and Hannah’s love story began back in 2016, when Hannah cheekily slid into his DMs after he finished as runner-up on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! The pair instantly hit it off, and Joel popped the question, just a year later. In 2019, they tied the knot in a stunning beachfront ceremony in Mykonos. Welcoming baby Wilde a few years later was the perfect next chapter, he admits.
And while Joel says he doesn’t have any big secret when it comes to a happy marriage, he does believe that “honesty is key”. “I think it’s also taking time to speak to each other and properly communicate at the end of the day, which is difficult when you’re a parent”.
Asked if the challenges of parenting ever cause friction between them, Joel confesses, “Luckily, Hannah and I are pretty much on the same wavelength, but parenting is so all-consuming. The whole thing is hard, it’s just exhausting to be honest. We haven’t got the energy to fight, even if we wanted to fight.”
Meanwhile, after almost a decade after his own jungle stint where he shared the campsite with the likes of Emily Atack, Carol Vorderman and eventual jungle queen Scarlett Moffatt, Joel is feeling the full circle moment as he returns not as a contestant but as a host of the sister show.
“I’m really excited to be back. I can’t quite believe it’s coming up to 10 years since I did the jungle myself. It’s really, really nice to round off those 10 years and to be still going back there after so long, it is amazing. And seeing fresh people going in and seeing their enjoyment (and non- enjoyment as well)… it’s just so lovely to see it through their eyes.”
Joel took part in the 16th series and finished as the runner-up, with Adam Thomas placing third and Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt winning the crown. Sweetly describing his Unpacked co-host Kemi Rogers as “so easy to work with”, Joel admits, their show is much harder to create than how it comes across on the telly.
“In reality, you are travelling there in the mad weather, for a start. Last year we had crazy floods and you’re writing the show about a show that’s not finished yet. Also, there’s the time zone difference. I’m getting up at midnight and then working through the night until 10 o’clock in the morning.”
Despite the trials, tribulations and teamwork involved in creating the show in Australia and getting it into our homes in the UK, Joel says, “It’s genuinely an incredible team, and it’s like a proper army operation to get that TV show into your living room. It’s really, really amazing.”
The Masked Singer presenter also believes I’m A Celeb remains one of the absolute highlights of our TV viewing throughout the year – a show unlike any other.
“What is amazing about the show is the different people’s reactions to the trials and the hunger. Different people’s reactions are what make that show so special. You have certain people who just take it in their stride. You have other people who just immediately say ‘I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’. You have other people who scream, scream, scream and others who just close their eyes and zone out.
“It just brings these celebrities out of their comfort zone, and you see a side of them that you would never see on any other show. It’s just so captivating and ridiculous and fun”
Joking that his favourite contestant during his own stint is ‘himself’, he then admits with a giggle that his favourite camp-mate was one of his best friends, actor Adam Thomas.
“I just thought he was the perfect campmate. He was so joyful, and his laugh was so infectious, and he sort of kept the camp really buoyant and fun, and also had that side of vulnerability about him.
“That’s what I think is a perfect campmate, someone who shows that vulnerable side, but brings true joy at the same time.”

And would Joel be willing to step in as a contestant for the second time for an I’m A Celeb All Stars series, if he were asked? “Never say never”, he smiles. “It would definitely get me off my mobile phone for a while!”
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! starts 16th November on ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player
Following Pauline Quirke’s devastating dementia diagnosis, Birds of a Feather star Lesley Joseph set the scene for a potential Birds of a Feather reunion.

Pauline Quirke’s Birds of a Feather co-star Lesley Joseph has issued an update about a potential on-screen reunion. The pair, alongside Loose Women panellist Linda Robson, are best known for their roles in the sitcom which last aired in December 2020.
Fans have longed for a second revival since then because Pauline’s health has prevented it, but Lesley has now confirmed it won’t happen.
Steve Sheen, the actress’s husband, revealed to her in January that she had dementia following her 2021 diagnosis.
He claimed that the Sharon Theodopolopodous star had resigned from all of her professional and professional responsibilities, including acting, in a statement released at the time.
Through her work and through PQA, where her vision and guidance have helped many young people, Steve continued to say that his wife’s Performing Academy “touched countless lives and will continue to do so.”
Lesley recently asked if she and Linda could continue the show as a duo, saying, “Everyone knows about Pauline… and she would be without us.
We produced 129 episodes, and it is now over and there are many more things I want to do. “
Lesley coyly addressed rumors about producing a second comedy show with Linda despite not having plans to produce another Birds of a Feather episode.
Although this hasn’t yet taken place, she questioned whether it was. “Next year, we’ll learn more.” “
Pauline’s family recently made the most of her dementia, and Pauline’s family recently received a new Birds of a Feather update.
In a segment on BBC Breakfast this week, the actress’ husband and son reflected on her diagnosis and shared how she is doing now.
When Pauline, 66, received a script in 2020 and was unable to take the words, Steve said he first realized something was wrong with her.
When the word “degeneration” was used, the family was shocked because they had assumed her symptoms were related to a long Covid.
For the first year, two years, you’re thinking, “No she’s alright,” according to Steve. Three or four years later, things are a little different.
We were unsure of how long it would last, how long you would use it, how bad it would be, or how quickly it would go.
She continues to be funny, talking, and content. Who knows, four years, eight, ten, 12 years, or 20 years? ,” he added.
We’re just trying to spread awareness of the condition, Steve continued. We don’t do this because we’re very private, but we do it because we need to. “
Charlie, who spoke with his father, assured fans that his mother is “good” and that she still knew “exactly” who they were.
He gushed, “My mum has always been my best friend, and her condition has not affected that.”
The fashion retailer is carrying the “cutest” jumper that is “so comfy” for the winter.
