Debenhams Delivered, a star-studded 2025 Christmas campaign featuring Judi Love, Olivia Attwood, Abbey Clancy, and Peter Crouch, has been unveiled by Debenhams.
An ordinary British street is transformed into a true winter wonderland by the first Christmas TV campaign to be produced this year.
A neighbor discovered a popular TikToker “not breathing,” leading to his tragic death at the age of 25.
Influencer from Miami, Ben Bader, passed away “extremely suddenly” on Thursday, October 23.
Police reported that neighbours discovered the star unresponsive, according to TMZ. First responders reportedly performed “lifesaving measures” at the scene, which continued once medical personnel arrived.
Later, Bader was taken to a hospital, but tragically, he passed away. Authorities have not yet excluded foul play, and the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner has not yet declared the cause of death.
Reem, Bader’s girlfriend, confirmed his passing in an emotional online condolence. She wrote, “The past few days have been the most difficult few days of my entire life, and I’ve never dealt with this before.”

“Especially not with the loss of someone who was as significant to me as he was.” He was so enthusiastic about each and every person he met and genuinely loved everyone. Reem added that it is still unknown what caused Bader’s death.
Bader rose to internet fame for offering lifestyle and financial advice to his 135,000 TikTok followers. On Instagram, where he had nearly 50,000 followers, he often shared photos from sporting events and with luxury cars.
The lifestyle creator had celebrated his 25th birthday just a month earlier, on September 22. “He made a profound impact on everyone who knew him through his wisdom, humour, and compassion,” Bader’s family said in a statement to People.
Ben “inspired those around him to look for meaning, connection, and purpose in their own lives by living each day to the fullest.”
“Though our hearts are broken, we will carry on Ben’s legacy in everything we do,” the family continued. “We will keep his memory alive by leading with love, living with purpose, and carrying forward his passions that made the world brighter.”
The star’s girlfriend revealed that the couple planned to have dinner the night of his death.
No one really knows how he died, she said, and she shared that it appeared to have happened suddenly. We were supposed to have dinner that night, but he seemed so normal, he said, “There really weren’t any signs of this happening.”
She claimed in a now heartbreaking phone call that she had spoken with him just before his passing.
He was just smiling and being so funny, she said when I first spoke to him on FaceTime a few hours prior to his passing. Ben was “the most generous, kind, and caring person I’ve ever met.”
Reem referred to Bader as “hero” and “inspiration.” She continued, “I realize this is selfish, but I just feel like I gave him everything and he gave it everything, only to have him go.” Because it’s so simple to just move on, I feel so fortunate to have been loved by him.
The final TikTok of Bader featured him offering his fans financial advice on the day he passed away. He urged viewers to “pick one business idea and stick to it,” making a comparison between commitment and finding a purpose in learning a new sport.
The reason why you feel “like empty or directionless” is because you haven’t clearly defined what you want, Bader powerfully stated in the video.
Following a number of shoplifting and burglaries, Marco Pierre White Jr. was sentenced to prison today.
The Big Brother star appeared at Isleworth Crown Court today via video link as the sentence was handed down, after admitting to a series of offences earlier this year.
After entering a plea to four counts of burglary and one count of criminal damage in court on August 20, the troubled son of the well-known Michelin chef Marco Pierre White, was taken into custody on remand following a crime spree in west London and Bath.
Pierre White Jr., however, told prison guards he did not want to wait and instead went back to his cell when the judge adjourned to consider the sentence. When the jail term was commuted, he was absent. Three years and ten months of prison were given to Marco Pierre White Jr.
Judge Edwards Connell stated that Pierre White Jr. “is accurately described as]a prolific acquisitive offender.” Judge Connell described White’s behavior as a “campaign of dishonesty” and spoke of his “wilful” and “persistent” non-compliance with suspended sentences. He added that the defendant’s abominable record of dishonesty and the fact that he received one or two suspended sentences, respectively, make all of the crimes worse.
He is described as a prolific offender quite appropriately, in my opinion.
He violates court orders while serving suspended sentence sentences, which is unfortunate.
The defendant violates two suspended sentence orders, the first of which was issued for burglaries on November 29, 2024, and he received an 18-month suspended sentence.
After Pierre White Jr violated them by committing the crimes, he also activated 25 weeks of suspended sentences. These will be served in addition to the three-year, five-month prison sentence.
Sean Sullivan, the troubled actor’s attorney, claimed his “long-standing drug addiction” was the cause of the crimes. And the abuses occurred after the treatment facility he was staying at abruptly closed down.
He must steal to keep his habit, according to Mr. Sullivan.
Prior to that, White had admitted to four burglary counts, criminal damage, and a number of theft counts.
Two fluorite crystal lamp towers worth £13,600 were stolen from a west London gallery by Pierre White Junior, who broke into it, causing £27, 000 worth of damage.
The TV star, who has battled drug addiction, also robbed a Barnes and Noble store of £7775 worth of natural rock crystal formations.
Today’s court heard that Pierre White Jr. frequently had a Lime Bike waiting for him when he committed the crimes.
He also made a threat to hurt a Westbourne Grove employee who was stealing £1, 331 worth of hygiene products while working there.
After previously denying a number of the offences, he now made an appearance in court via video link today.
Strictly Come Dancing professional Amy Dowden has spoken about her current cancer status after suffering some health scares recently.
Amy, 35, appeared on The Dr Hilary Show podcast, where she shared her happiness over being in remission, but went on to explain that doctors had recently found “specks on my other breast”.
Amy, a 32-year-old woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2023, has been open about her battle with the disease in recent years. According to the diagnosis, she missed the Strictly edition that year and had to have both chemotherapy and mastectomy removed.
Amy’s fight against breast cancer has inspired thousands of people in the months that have followed. No disease evidence, Amy said in a conversation with Dr. Hilary. My other breast has specks on it, which is unpleasant, and I’ve had some scares from that.
“That breast has had more biopsies done,” I said. Because the family has breast cancer, significant decisions must be made right away and later. I’m in incredibly good hands.
Amy has also discussed the strain and pressure she put on herself to return to the dance floor in addition to discussing the disease’s effects.
Amy, who also has Crohn’s disease, discussed her desire to end her life as soon as possible in a previous conversation on the Breast Cancer Uncovered podcast.
Amy responded, “Can I have both off when I was told I needed a mastectomy?” I didn’t want to go back on with my life and deal with the fact that the cancer was returning to the other breast. I wanted to continue living my life.
Amy also discussed the sudden shock of discovering her diary had vanished due to the illness and the realization that the recovery process would take longer than she anticipated.
She explained, “Suddenly, my diary was empty because I was skipping dance shows and going to work.” And I was unsure if I would start dancing once more.
“Was I going to start working once more?” You can’t predict when you’ll return to full health because it was a very terrifying time. You can’t say for sure, though.
For me, it was really difficult to say goodbye to someone who had such a busy diary and suddenly started canceling everything and not knowing when your life would resume was really difficult.
“I believed that was it,” she said. It was going to resume. I didn’t realize how long it actually took to recover from that difficult slog.
Sam Thompson has opened up about his blossoming relationship with model Talitha Balinska, confirming that the pair are dating, but aren’t yet official.
While on the latest episode of his Staying Relevant podcast alongside best friend Pete Wicks, the Made in Chelsea star turned I’m A Celeb winner admitted that things are going well between him and Talitha, though he’s in no rush to put a label on it.
Pete made fun of the phrase, “What stage are you at right now?” Before adding, “So look, you are dating, I think it is now clear.” Do we “remind you that we are dating right now”?
Sam acknowledged there is “no pressure” between them, but he couldn’t hide his smile as he confirmed the romance. There hasn’t been any discussion about that, he said. There is no pressure, which is wonderful. There is no constraint or deadline.
“The worst part about this is, if she sees this, I could get canned next week.” Pete then referenced Sam’s breakup with Zara McDermott, joking: “Oh, we can’t go through another break-up, not this year. At least wait till next year, darling.”
Sam laughed and acknowledged that he was simply accepting things as they came. He continued, “Material, I don’t know, everything is just super relaxed, you know what dating is like.
We simply enjoy it,” he said. In other words, I wouldn’t even know how to ask anyone out if I were to ever. I would panic. I haven’t asked anyone out in a while.
Pete jokingly called Sam out in another episode for trying to make a recent hangout into a double date. He retorted, “Sam did invite me on a double date over the weekend.”
I declined because it was just me and his friend and peep and his friend’s peep. Because he said he would see me, and then made it a double date, it sort of went out.
“Now, what that says to me is, ‘Come if you want, but it will be weird, and we don’t want you there. We don’t want you there, alright, because we’re going to be lovey-dovey feeding each other at the table and all the rest of it, and it might be weird for you to sit there… I know you’re sad, lonely, and depressed so it might be too much for you’.”
Pete’s mock complaints, which Sam could only be heard laughing off, were “not true.” Talitha was reportedly reconnected with the Staying Relevant host after she was given a surprise invitation to join his sold-out live performance at London’s O2 Arena.
He first met the model in 2023, but he was in a relationship with fellow Love Island star Zara McDermott at the time, and nothing happened between them.
Since their second meet cute at the O2, things appear to have moved quickly, and Sam has already introduced Talitha to his sister Louise Thompson, her fiancé Ryan Libbey, and their young son Leo.
Talitha, 25, is a native of a well-known family. Ella Balinska, her half-sister, and her father, Count Kaz Balinski-Jundzill, both work in the oil industry and are married to model Sophie Anderton.
Although Ariana Grande has a history of image transformation, her debut this week has come as a big surprise to her fans. The 32-year-old actress is still working on her new film Wicked: For Good, which is scheduled to be released next month, but her transformation indicates that she is almost at the end of her Glinda days.
Ariana poses for a brand-new social media photo, sporting long, cascade-descendant waves down her shoulders while sporting newly colored brunette hair. The singer-turned-actress has been donning a slick-back ponytail for three years, but this new look transports her fans to her pre-Wicked days, when she preferred brunette color and glamorous waves.
Ariana captions the snap, Isn’t it nice to see me, isn’t it? playing on a well-known quote from her movie alter-ego, Glinda. And as you’d expect, the makeover caused quite the fan frenzy, despite comments being limited to her friends.
This £22 shine-boosting product is the reason Claudia Winkleman’s mirror-like hair looks better.

While her sister Frankie wrote, “Yes, it is my sister,” one of her pals wrote, “Ahhhh brown hair is back.”
Another person said, “I wasn’t ready for this!!!” with the phrase “A thousand times YES!” a fourth participant in the fun.
Francesco De Chiara, Ariana’s hair stylist, shared a look at her new hair on his social media accounts, saying, “From this to this, a new chapter has begun!” “along with a photo of her blonde hair above one of her new brunette tresses.”
Fans of the Eternal Sunshine singer’s past performances are delighted to see a glimpse of the pre-Wicked Ari, but it’s not clear whether this brunette hairstyle is a permanent step back to her roots or whether it’s a quick trip back to the dark for a new project Ariana has on the cards.
