Zoe Ball confirms identity of new boyfriend after a year of dating ‘sexy’ new man

After confessing that her “loader” at home was actually her new boyfriend, Zoe Ball took to the stage with him for the first time.

The identity of Zoe Ball’s new boyfriend has finally been confirmed. The former BBC Radio 2 presenter has teased her new romance for several months, but kept her man out of the public eye.

But now the 55-year-old radio host has been snapped cosying up to BAFTA-winning production designer Mathieu Weekes. Zoe and the 49-year-old were seen enjoying a coastal stroll together near Brighton.

For the trip, Zoe was seen sporting an animal-print scarf and a beanie hat. Meanwhile, Mattieu wore a hooded coat and blue jeans. The pair stayed affixed to their umbrellas. Additionally, Zoe twitched to her partner’s arm.

The images, obtained by Daily Mail, showed Zoe looking extremely loved up as she moves on with Mathieu, an award-winning production designer who has worked on series such as The Traitors and I’m A Celeb, is said that have met Zoe while he was designing the set for talent show Mamma Mia! – I Have a Dream in 2023.

Zoe, who was presenting the series in Greece at the time, split from Michael Reed in the same year. Previously, speaking on her Dig It podcast, which she co-hosts with pal Jo Whiley, Zara had referred to Mathieu as “The Lodger”.

After 18 years of dating, the mother of two, who split from her ex-husband Norman Cook (known as Fatboy Slim), set the record straight about how she reconciled.

And she shared a glimpse into her romantic life with her co-host, saying, “I love to smell someone’s armpits when I’ve been sort of dating.”

Although it may seem strange, you must love someone for all of their smells, not just their bathroom. That’s where I draw the line. However, I believe there is something about odors emanating from the underarms.

And she continued to say that her favorite activity is to “sniff in the armpits” and that her favorite activity is to “get a right old look” when my partner has been away for a while.

Before going into relationship with Michael, Zoe dated Billy Yates, a cameraman and technician. After a protracted battle with depression, Billy sadly committed suicide in May 2017.

After his passing, Zoe said, “I was left with a lot of questions. One in four of us in the UK, in my opinion, are affected by mental illness. Because those figures are significant, the majority of people you meet will have had an interest in this subject.

Zoe revealed that his passing gave her a different perspective on life last week in a conversation with the Sunday Times. There is the grief-on-grief of other losses, she said. What’s important here, I thought to myself as I looked back and thought, “right? “

Zoe left her job as a radio presenter on BBC Radio 2 late last year. After revealing the shock news of her departure from her hit show, she left quickly just a week later.

On December 20, she bid her last farewells to the audience. The reins were then relinquished to Emma Willis.

X Factor reject now a millionaire and looks unrecognisable 16 years after show stint

Since appearing on the ITV show in 2010, a former X Factor contestant has undergone a dramatic transformation, spending over £1 million on cosmetic procedures.

An X Factor star is virtually unrecognisable nearly 20 years after her appearance on the ITV programme.

Chloe Khan rose to prominence when she auditioned for the singing competition back in 2010, delivering a spirited performance for Simon Cowell whilst dressed in ripped jeans and a small crop top.

The Leeds native successfully reached bootcamp but was eliminated before the live shows began. After her X Factor experience, Chloe went on to appear on Celebrity Big Brother in 2016.

In recent years, however, Chloe has pivoted her career towards the adult entertainment industry and is now generating substantial income. The mum-of-one has previously disclosed that she’s earned “crazy” amounts of money on a particular popular adult platform.

Moreover, in 2024, Chloe – who has built her own property portfolio – revealed she raked in more than £200k within 24 hours after launching her AI clone that enables her to distribute explicit content to subscribers online, without needing to personally interact with them, reports Wales Online.

And on Tuesday (January 20) Chloe was once again setting her followers’ pulses racing when she posted a collection of steamy photographs to Instagram showing her in a black lace lingerie ensemble that left little to the imagination.

It’s undeniable that Chloe has experienced a dramatic transformation since her X Factor era. Back in 2018, Chloe discussed the cosmetic procedures she’d undergone up to that point whilst appearing on Victoria Derbyshire’s BBC programme.

She revealed that she had Brazilian bum lift (BBL) and buttock implants, as well as two breast augmentations and three rhinoplasties. Everyone I know my age has the same or more about it, but Chloe defended her decision to have cosmetic surgery.

Everyone is having surgery, they say. The hairdresser says, “Oh, I’m getting a BBL next week,” and Jane down the road also gets it.

Visit the new **Everything Gossip** website for the most recent news in showbiz, TV, movie, and streaming media.

She continued, “People are so blase about it, and I am as well; it just doesn’t seem as serious as it once was, which is worrying.”

Chloe previously told The Sun, “Oh my God, how much have I spent on surgery? ” She also previously stated, “Oh my God, I spent so much on cosmetic procedures.” A million dollars, in total, would be said over the years.

Location of Victoria Beckham’s ‘inappropriate’ wedding dance video revealed

Victoria Beckham’s mother, Victoria, danced “inappropriately” on him at his wedding to Nicola Peltz in 2022, according to Brooklyn Beckham.

The video footage of Victoria Beckham’s “very inappropriate” dance is owned by one person. On Monday, the showbiz world was rocked when Brooklyn Beckham issued a blistering attack against his family.

Following a contentious fallout, Brooklyn, 26, has recently been separated from his family. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth, even though the world had watched intently to see if he could rekindle their spark.

Instead, the aspiring chef has stated that he doesn’t intend to reconcile with his family. And he claimed that Victoria had “hijacked” what ought to have been one of his wedding day’s highlights in his gruesome six-page statement.

He told the audience, “My mother snuck my first dance with my wife, which had been scheduled weeks in advance for a romantic love song.” He continued, “Marc Anthony called me to the stage in front of our 500 wedding guests, where my wife and I were scheduled to perform our romantic dance, but instead my mother was seated nearby and waiting to dance with me.” In front of everyone, she danced very inappropriately on me.

In my entire life, I have never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated. We wanted to exchange our vows so that we could make brand-new wedding day memories that would not cause anxiety and embarrassment.

OUR LIVE UPDATES ARE HERE.

Sources have now revealed who controls the footage for the “very inappropriate” dance. However, it’s reported that the video is unlikely to ever be made available to the general public despite social media’s meltdown. According to a source, Brookelyn holds the upper hand when it comes to the video of Victoria dancing “inappropriately” on him at Nicola’s wedding.

You can totally understand why Brooklyn never wanted the video to be made public, they added. He has remained silent about his experiences with his family and, in particular, how deeply depressed his wedding day was by his mother. He is now speaking out about it.

The release of the footage could provide the ultimate proof that everything Brooklyn has claimed is entirely accurate because thousands of people are now speculating about how inappropriate Victoria’s performance really was. Brooklyn is the only person who may legally release the dance-related footage, according to the same source who added.

Despite having a difficult relationship with his family, it’s said he may not want to ever go back to the incident he claimed caused great embarrassment. “especially on a very public scale,” the source said.

Brooklyn attacked his family, saying, “I’ve made every effort to keep these things private. I’ve been silent for years. Unfortunately, my parents and their team continue to target journalists, leaving me with the choice to speak for myself and expose only a small percentage of lies.

He continued, “I do not want to reconcile with my family.” For the first time in my life, I’m standing up for myself instead of being controlled. My parents have controlled our family’s narratives in the media for my entire life. I was born into a life filled with performative social media posts, family events, and fake relationships.

I’ve recently witnessed with my own eyes how frequently they lie in the media, largely at the expense of innocent people, to maintain their own facade. But I think truth always emerges.

Brooklyn was irritated about his wedding, but it wasn’t just the dancing. He claims that his family tried to persuade him to renounce the rights to his name. He claimed that weeks prior to our wedding, my parents had repeatedly tried to bribe me into reneging on my name, which would have affected my wife and our future children.

They resisted me signing before my wedding date because that would set the terms of the agreement in motion. The payday was affected by my holdout, and they have never treated me similarly.

Brooklyn Beckham woke up and said ‘F*** it – this ends now’ before bombshell posts

Brooklyn Beckham made a powerful statement after being enraged by a very specific media report, and associate editor Tom Bryant reveals the true motivation behind it.

Waking up in Los Angeles on Sunday morning, Brooklyn Beckham cut a dejected figure as he read another barrage of anti-Nicola headlines. Incensed, he is said to have turned to his wife, and said: “F*** it….this ends now.”

Up until that point Brooklyn had kept silent despite the slew of bad publicity which had engulfed Nicola over the last 12 months. I was told repeatedly that the tantalizing prospect of Brooklyn going public about the rift with his parents was not in the Peltz PR playbook.

Something about him began to unravel as he perused the most recent article, which claimed Nicola had sparked the conflict despite his alleged desire to reconcile with his family. A confidante told me that “he thought the abuse against his wife would never stop until he said something in his own words.” He had no way of changing his mind because he was sick of the lies. and neither did anyone desire. He vowed to end the “bull****” that his parents, he claimed, are responsible for.

What followed – in the form of the explosive Instagram statement on Monday evening – took everyone by surprise when they read the draft. A pal told me: “Make no mistake those were very much Brooklyn’s words, and from the heart. He spent the weekend agonising over what to say.”

The 26-year-old eviscerated his mother and father over the course of 821 words, which is fair to say he didn’t pull any punches. Every raging itch was ticked off in agonizing detail. It was a complete showdown, from his parents’ “trying endlessly” to his mother dancing “inappropriately” with him at his wedding.

I’ve had a ringside seat to the family feud story as it progressed as a working journalist for the past 12 months. Friends on both sides of the conflict have engaged in combat to spread their message, so I’ve been given access to all the bloody details.

I’ve been asked if I’m Team Brooklyn or Team Beckham repeatedly, but the truth is… I’ve made every effort to not be either. Instead, I made an effort to steer clear of a slew of obtrusive and frequently incendiary viewpoints. Without a doubt, the Beckhams’ friends believe Nicola to have had a nearly hostile influence on their son. I expressed my real concern that she was isolating him from both his friends and his family.

It is overstated to say that the narrative erupted in Brooklyn after David’s 50th birthday party. He regarded his parents as having authorized their friends to “throw Nicola under the bus” at the time, as he does today.

But I maintain the Beckhams’ friends fears come from a good place. They were – and still are – genuinely concerned that Brooklyn is being manipulated, and that this course of action “isn’t the real him.” However this week’s Instagram statement is not the first time that Brooklyn has fought back. To counter the flurry of allegations about his wife last summer, Brooklyn’s friends were determined to set the record straight.

One made the extraordinary claim to me that Nicola has helped Brooklyn “see the emotional abuse and toxic behaviour within his family”. Predictably, it drew an angry response from the Beckhams’ friends who described the allegations as “deeply unpleasant and patently untrue”. But it marked the first time Nicola and Brooklyn ditched the gloves and decided to fight back on their own terms. Some might say it’s a bit rich for Brooklyn to now bemoan his parents for trying to “control the narrative” while allowing his friends to brief on his behalf.

However, a friend of mine says, “Nicola and Brooklyn did not begin this… they have always tried to be nice with the family, and they must be able to stand up for themselves against the negativity that is currently roiling.”

Without a doubt, this fightback spooked the Beckhams and caught them off guard. A source told me that “this salvo was undoubtedly a taste of what was to come.” “No one had been paying too much attention to Brooklyn, which made them believe they couldn’t go nuclear.” However, it’s fair to say that many people felt there was no way to go back that particular moment.

Yet, the negative Nicola stories persisted, even this month. An anonymous source told a newspaper that Brooklyn’s protestations have caused some to be “bemused to the least” after I revealed that he was still in touch with his grandparents because there was “a lot of love for them.” Another instance of Brooklyn and Nicola being attacked for absolutely nothing, according to a source. Who can deny Brooklyn’s love for his grandparents?

Brooklyn pressed the nuclear button this week against this “poisonous” backdrop. However, it remains to be seen whether it actually ends the negativity.
