Gloria Katona has been making headlines after her rumored ex-boyfriend Paolo Margaglione described their relationship, but a source claims it’s like “water off a duck’s back” to her.

Kerry Katona has come under fire after her hunky new partner’s ex accused her of stealing her man. Mum-of-five Kerry has been in a love bubble with personal trainer Paolo Margaglione, 33, after meeting him on Celebs Go Dating in May. But Paolo’s ex, Jessica Smith, 25, claims she was already in a relationship with the dad-of-two – and completely unaware he was filming the dating show, as OK! reports.

He constantly told me lies while we were together. Jessica, a warehouse manager from Holmfirth, Yorkshire, described it as horrifying. He doesn’t seem to have a single emotion for Kerry, in my opinion. He’ll be happy that he’s now being made known because he only cares about fame.

Devastated Jessica spoke out after seeing snaps of Kerry, 44, and Paolo kissing outside a London hotel. She claims he “repeatedly lied” about taking part in the show – which also stars Love Island’s Olivia Hawkins and The Chase’s Mark Labbett – and that he told her he was travelling to London for business meetings when he was in fact filming scenes with smitten Kerry.

But a source close to the former Atomic Kitten star, who is keeping tight-lipped over the furore, has said that after experiencing her fair share of romantic betrayals herself, she would never knowingly make a move on another woman’s man.

She knows her truth and won’t let it ruin things, the source said, and she’s not being accused of being a man-stealer. Kerry won’t allow anyone to dunk in her parade.

Jess went on to claim that Paolo, who she started dating after he contacted her on Instagram, continued to send her loved-up messages while he was filming the E4 reality show, even telling her he wanted to marry her.

But Paolo, who has two daughters from a previous relationship, denies any wrongdoing. “I was never in a relationship with Jess,” he said. “We only met up around five times. I was honest with her that I had been offered to go on a dating show and if it were to come to fruition, I would take the opportunity.”

He continued,” and as I had been offered to appear on the show, I made it clear to Jess that we had to cut off our conversations and see each other. Jess is a great girl, and I have nothing negative to say about her.

Kerry’s rumoured new romance comes eight months after her shock split from her former fiancé Ryan Mahoney, who she dated for six years. The pair met online and lived together in Cheshire, with personal trainer Ryan proposing to Kerry in 2020.

After the two ended their relationship in November, Kerry later revealed that they had broken up because of a “breach of trust.” We are no longer together, she said at the time, and this week has been very difficult. Never in a million years did I anticipate this to occur.

In 2002, Kerry, who has two daughters, Molly, 23, and Lilly-Sue, 22, wed her first husband, Westlife star Brian McFadden. Before the relationship broke down after three years, she wed taxi driver Mark Croft, who welcomed son Max, 17, and daughter Heidi, 18.

She and George Kay, the father of her 11-year-old daughter Dylan-Jorge, tied the knot in 2014 with her. Former rugby league player George passed away in 2019 after an overdose of drugs.

Celebrity Big Brother star Kerry is certainly no stranger to drama when it comes to her love life, but the sourcesays she has “learnt the hard way” when it comes to fame-hungry partners and won’t be fooled again.

The source claimed that “she felt that betrayal.” But she’s completely content and at ease with Paolo because she has a smart head on her shoulders.

She has never felt or looked better, and her only missing is a tall, handsome man. She is earning a good living and everything is in her control. She is not being governed or controlled by anyone.

Following months of reports that his marriage was in trouble, football player Kieran Trippier was recently caught out with a mysterious woman. Now that she has been identified as an OnlyFans star, she has been identified as a mystery woman.

Kieran Trippier enjoyed a night out with an OnlyFans star before announcing his split from his wife, a report has claimed. The 34-year-old footballer, who plays for Premier League club Newcastle United as a right-back, has been married for nine years.

In 2016, he and his partner Charlotte in Cyprus welcomed a son named Jacob and two daughters named Esme and Isla. Reports have been raging about the couple’s relationship problems for months, with last year’s headlines suggesting they had taken a break to raise concerns about their marriage.

When Kieran was seen without his wedding ring in September, there were concerns that the marriage was being ended. Additionally, it was reported that he had been seen with a ‘mystery woman’ two weeks prior.

Now the mystery has seemingly been solved, as the blonde woman he was spotted out and about with in Newcastle has been unmasked as an OnlyFans content creator named Sienna Day.

According to a source, Kieran and Sienna reportedly dated after they left the Wafi Lounge. She spent just over an hour with him in the club and is well-known on the scene in Newcastle.

“They left not long before 3am. Kieran looked very taken with Sienna.” The Mirror has approached representatives of Kieran for comment.

According to reports last week, Kieran and Charlotte have been living apart for a year and are now considering divorcing. The couple planned to divorce as soon as possible, according to reports that they were determined to continue living together.

Earlier this month, it was reported that Kieran had been spotted out in Newcastle partying with Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry. The England international, who has 54 caps, shared with his followers that he’s moving forward after parting ways with his wife.

Following that, Charlotte broke her silence and said to her fans, “I’m fine but not ready to talk.”

Taking to Instagram last week in view of her 34,300 followers, she said she had been inundated with messages of support from women and also men who had been sending their well wishes. “I just wanted to let everyone know that I am fine,” she said. Charlotte added: “Obviously, I am not ready to talk about my situation.

“I don’t want to be putting things out there for them until I am comfortable and the time is right, and I have three young children, haven’t I?” Yes, I just wanted to let everyone know that once you make a decision, you can get through it.

Like, you can get through it, and yes, you’ll get there. I feel like I’m getting my glow back. I’m all about mental health and other things like that, so I’m telling everyone who needs any motivational speeches or general chit chats that they will never forget what they are going through.

Charlotte’s post which has been liked over 2,800 times was soon flooded with messages of support. Former The Only Way Is Essex star Billi Mucklow penned: “Keep sparkling beautiful.” One Newcastle United fan penned: “I live in the North East and I’m a huge Newcastle fan, I love Trippier on the pitch and all he’s done for the team, and if I’m being honest, I didn’t want to believe what I was reading on social media about him. However, I wanted to say I’ve followed you for a while now and what a lovely, genuine person you seem to be. Always so happy and classy. You’re so pretty, he’s lost a good one there!”

Thank you, Charlotte replied to the fan. Tripps defo excels on the pitch, and we’re so happy for you Geordies! I adore the Geordies a lot.

Liberty Poole, a former Love Islander, has always been her own woman, embracing those gorgeous curves and keeping it real in the villa. She admits that she was asked to do one odd thing after moving in.

She might not have found lasting love during her two stints on Love Island, but Liberty Poole is proof that staying true to yourself is perhaps the real win when it comes to participating in the dating show. The 25-year-old Brummie first found fame in 2021 when she coupled up with Jake Cornish on day one in the villa and quickly became one half of the show’s golden couple – until she called time on the romance, days before the final.

Last year, Liberty gave love another shot on Love Island: All Stars but, once again, chose self-respect over game-playing guys. Since then, as she exclusively tells OK!, she’s turned her relationship woes into a platform for body positivity, inspiring her 1.3 million Instagram followers to embrace their imperfections.

Hello Liberty! How do you feel now about your villa-related experiences?

I always come out stronger, you know, no matter what. However, I do agree that my journeys in the villa weren’t the simplest. Although there were some positive things to deal with, it was a time I’ll always cherish. I had to rewatch my boyfriend’s TV show because he didn’t like me, and then I got pied three times in the Snog, Marry, Pie challenge. Never was a girl picked or desired. I was the girl. It’s important to keep in mind that the presence of such a small group of people doesn’t reflect on you; rather, it’s just the nature of the show.

Any adjustments you would have liked to see this season given that the current series is in its midst?

Well, I feel like they’ve come a long way since earlier seasons with diversity, but I do think they could still do more with body diversity as well. There’s always a certain body type that goes into the villa, so I think more could be done in that sense. Because I’m a bit of a curvier girl myself, I do a lot of body positivity now online. Before I went on Love Island, I used to heavily edit my photos and shrink my waist. Whereas, when you’re in front of a camera, you can’t hide.

Did you think the All Stars villa’s players were merely attempting to find love?

Yes, I believe some people did in the end. I’m not sure what I’m talking about in the All Stars villa, but I’m trying to have a genuine conversation with one particular person. They told me, “Oh no, you’re mentioning the fourth wall, you’re not doing this conversation right.” They claimed that the conversation needed to be “redone.” It was a cast member, not even one of the producers, who made the claim. I realized that that was what people were thinking. I entered the company of me because I didn’t believe anything else would have worked.

Do you believe that dating at the villa is still possible, or is it more of a platform to achieve fame?

Yes, I would say it has changed more recently because I believe people are aware of your show’s potential and how you can gain a certain following. I wouldn’t paint everyone the same color and claim everyone is in it for the fame, though I would say it has probably grown since the first season. I still believe that some people enter the villa with the intention of falling in love.

After leaving Love Island for the first time, did you encounter any difficulties in resuming normality?

The welfare team is there for you throughout the entire process, and especially after the show when you return home. Coming out was the challenge for me. Never compromise your sense of humour for money or fame. The show does a little love-bombing, though. You’re obviously busy when you leave, and the situation is whirling in a but it settles down. I would advise against comparing yourself to anyone else because everyone’s career path is unique. I remember going on stage at times where I was told to wear designer bags more to improve my image. No thanks, that simply wasn’t who I am.

What guidance would you offer islanders who might come visit?

Just be yourself. I’ve been there and I’ve seen people be themselves and it works out for them a lot better than the people who try to pretend or play up to the camera in some way. Also, the public are not stupid. So just be yourself and you’ll get further down the line. Some people’s experiences are that you go in and find love and end up in a long-lasting relationship, like Alex and Olivia [Bowen], Indiyah [Polack] and Dami [Hope] – they’re all still in very happy relationships. You can be open to that aspect, but I wouldn’t go in with that expectation.
