Danny Dyer shares ‘real reason’ daughter Dani Dyer quit Strictly Come Dancing

Dani Dyer, a former Love Island star, had to resign from Strictly Come Dancing after breaking her ankle during rehearsals.

Danny Dyer has revealed that his daughter, Dani Dyer, experienced a “freak accident” which led to her withdrawal from Strictly Come Dancing. The former Love Island star was all set to showcase her dance moves on the BBC One show with professional dancer Nikita Kuzmin.

Dani, 29, had to take a break from the competition last week after falling during training. She initially assumed she had just “rolled her ankle,” but an MRI revealed a fracture after that.

This unfortunate turn of events led to West End sensation and fellow ex-Love Island contestant, Amber Davies, stepping in as a replacement on Strictly. Danny, known for his tough-guy roles in Hollywood, discussed the incident with his daughter on their Live and Let Dyers podcast.

He claimed that it was a “funny accident.” “

In essence, Dani explained, “I fell and rolled my ankle and at first I heard a noise, but I later realized that my ligaments were the cause of the hairline fracture.

They told the physio that if you had a grade one sprain, you could work with a grade one sprain, but my ankle had a grade two sprain on one side and a grade one sprain on the other. What can we do? I asked the doctor after we went to get a second opinion. physically, please? There must be something, can you jab at it? “

If Dani continued to dance, she was informed that she might need to have her medical clearance removed. Her co-stars were asking her why she would “risk” getting hurt even more after seeing this.

Later, she spoke with the show’s executives, who advised her to leave the competition. She continued, “Listen Dani, we have to withdraw you, it’s just not worth it, because you’re going to be in so much pain,” when I spoke with everyone at Strictly. ‘”

After the fall, Dani admitted she was concerned that she would end up “crying.” She continued, “It has really tested my mental health for me mentally. “

She revealed that her partner, West Ham and England star Jarrod Bowen, suffered a similar injury in a football match against Liverpool. Actor Danny asked: “Is it the same injury that Jarrod had when he kicked the back of [Virgil] van Dijk’s foot?”.

She responded, “Yes, yes, but he limped off and was suffering.” For me, I didn’t, whereas… Don’t get me wrong, it’s more agonizing now because he was going through complete and total agony, whereas I didn’t feel that way. “

After the incident, Sarah James, a producer for BBC Studios, expressed her wish for Dani’s quick recovery. According to her, “Dani has enriched Strictly with so much passion, joy, and enthusiasm, and her partnership with Nikita was the most sensational start.”

Everyone on the show is deeply sad that she is unable to compete in the current series.

Walmart to phase out synthetic dyes in its US private label food brands

By January 2027, Walmart will stop using artificial dyes in its American brands Great Value and Bettergoods, which are included in Walmart’s private-label products.

The decision by the big box retailer was made on Wednesday, the latest in a string of similar moves by a number of businesses as a result of President Donald Trump’s administration’s demand to remove dyes from food products.

In response to the administration’s Make America Healthy Again initiative, major packaged food companies like PepsiCo, Campbell’s, and Conagra Brands have made similar announcements in recent months.

Robert F. Kennedy, the head of national obesity, diabetes, cancer, mental health disorders, allergies, and neurodevelopmental disorders like autism have become a focus of health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Additionally, Walmart intends to omit more than 30 additional ingredients from its private-label line, including preservatives, artificial sweeteners, and fat substitutes.

The company claimed that the move was in response to consumer demand for simpler, more concise ingredients and that 90 percent of its private-brand products are currently free of artificial colors.

Walmart US President John Furner said, “Our customers have voiced their desire for products made with simpler, more common ingredients. We have listened.”

However, many of the ingredients on Walmart’s removal list are already banned, not frequently used, or have not long been used in the US food supply. Food safety experts believe that others were included despite there being no known issues or having been subject to the Trump administration’s review and potential elimination as a food additive.

The retailer is modifying formulations and finding new ingredients in collaboration with private-brand manufacturers. In the upcoming months, Walmart announced the rollout of reformulated products, ranging from cereals and salads to canned and frozen foods.

The largest brand of Walmart’s private-label lineup, along with other store brands like Marketside, Freshness Guaranteed, and the premium Bettergoods, has been a big hit with Americans who are looking for bargains.

By the end of the year, its member company Sam’s Club announced in June that it would have eliminated artificial colors, aspartame, and other ingredients from its Member’s Mark brand.

Rescuers race to save survivors of Indonesia school collapse as quake hits

In an effort to save dozens of children who are thought to be trapped beneath the rubble two days later, rescuers have pulled five survivors from an Indonesian school building that has collapsed.

As students gathered for afternoon prayers on Monday, a portion of the sprawling Al-Khoziny Islamic boarding school in Sidoarjo, on Java, suddenly sprang into flames.

According to Yudhi Bramantyo, the search and rescue services’ operational director, “We managed to evacuate seven victims today; five of them were saved alive, and two were found dead.” The five survivors were able to communicate, the authors claim.

The total number of victims in the disaster now stands at five with the rescue of two bodies.

According to school records, 91 people were suspected of being buried beneath the rubble, according to National Disaster and Mitigation Agency spokesperson Abdul Muhari.

Members of distressed families pleaded for the accretion of rescue efforts.

Our children, whose 14-year-old son is missing, may still be alive because they were crying for assistance, Abdul Hanan, said to the AFP news service.

“We are currently racing against time.”

Dewi Sulistiana was waiting for the news about her 14-year-old son.

“I’ve spent days here. She told AFP, “I cried thinking about my son. Why does he need to be located so quickly? What causes the search to move so slowly? I’ll just wait until I receive any updates.

The National Search and Rescue Agency’s head, Mohammad Syafii, claimed rescuers had to travel underground through a tunnel to the victims’ location. As the 72-hour “golden period” for best survival chances comes to an end, thermosensing drones are being used to find survivors and the deceased.

Rescue efforts are hampered by an earthquake.

A 6. 5 magnitude earthquake on Wednesday exacerbated operations and narrowed the space available for maneuvers. Authorities said dozens of homes were damaged and three people were hurt when the earthquake struck Sumenep, which is located 200 kilometers (124 miles) from the school.

The original 50cm (20 inches) space caved in 10cm (4 inches), and we worry that it will cause the victims’ constrictions, according to Syafii.

Seven locations, according to rescue official Emi Freezer from the National Search and Rescue Agency, have seen any signs of life. Food and water were being delivered in, but only one point was accessible.

He claimed that “the main structure has completely collapsed.”

Lax construction standards have sparked widespread concern about building safety in Indonesia, where it is common for owners to leave finished structures until their finances allow for the addition of additional floors.

Coronation Street’s Tanisha Gorey opens up on love life and ’embarrassing’ secret

Tanisha Gorey, who plays Asha Alahan on the ITV soap, admits to having depression and anxiety, and how she found a way to relax off the screen with the help of her boyfriend.

After filming some harrowing scenes on Coronation Street, Tanisha Gorey has found the perfect way to relax – chilling on the sofa with a Disney movie.

“It’s been weeks and weeks of 12-hour days, being sad and depressed and crying,” Tanisha says. “Sometimes it gets in your head and I really noticed that I was bringing it home with me.

There wasn’t a turn-off or escape from it because I was learning the rules for the following day. My boyfriend pulls me out of it because it is heavy. He will say, “Let’s watch something a little light-hearted tonight.”

Because I’m a Disney channel girl, I had to watch both Hannah Montana: The Movie and High School Musical to show my support. Anything that makes me smile and distracts from my daily life.

Lucas Whelan, 23, claims Tanisha, 23, is even content to watch the movies with her. He is fantastic, “smiles” He is the most ideal person I have ever met because he is very generous and supportive. My tea is prepared when I arrive home at 8 o’clock, the house is clean, and the washing is finished. He is incredibly helpful.

Lucas struggles with finances, but gives it his best chance when Tanisha struggles with her lines. She claims that he will play Dev, Bernie, Nina, and Summer as the other characters. He’s not an actor, so it’s hilarious because his job is completely opposite of what I do, but I think he really enjoys it!

As she tries to deal with the stresses of her job as a paramedic, viewers have witnessed Asha struggle with her mental health. During a traumatic shift, a woman named Naomi abused her in a special one-off episode last month.

It quickly becomes clear how severely Asha is affected if she repeatedly bumps into Naomi, which brings back terrible memories of the incident. She storms out before telling her father she’s going to quit when she discovers that she has lied about going back to work.

She later changes her mind, but when she returns, it’s obvious that she feels unworthy and that everything revolves around her helping her father Dev in his corner store.

She drinks wine behind the counter and is at peace with the choice to end her life, Tanisha says. People frequently claim that suicide victims’ heads were at their best when they took their own lives because their heads are no longer torn.

She leaves the store and scurries down the street in tears, but she is found and called for help. She tells Dev that everything in the hospital became too much, and that she planned to end her life by taking the pills and alcohol.

She says to him, “I’m glad it didn’t work.” However, she isn’t in the clear, and when she does, we discover that she is still depressed. To demonstrate that it’s not always a quick fix, is important, in my opinion. It demonstrates that it’s acceptable to ask for assistance once more for those who are struggling.

Tanisha says she is glad Coronation Street is exposing just how damaging racial abuse can be, having experienced it herself from a young age. Growing up in Oldham, Gtr Mancheser with white parents who ran a local pub, she says she attracted attention.

She recalls that my parents are white, my mother is white, my step-dad is white, and my grandparents are all white. I was raised with casual racism because my race was predominately white. There were always questions posed to my family as they grew up, and “where has she come from, because she’s not white?” Although I’ve dealt with it, it can occasionally outweigh other people’s.

Tanisha’s 17th year on the cobbles began when she was just six. She auditioned successfully when Coronation Street needed child actors to play Asha and Aadi’s twins, having initially been a baby model. Corrie smiles, and here I am, 17 years later, without even knowing what she was.

Tanisha has appeared in a number of ground-breaking stories, most notably Asha’s 2019 struggle with body image when she used dangerous skin-lightening cream. She reflects, which is my favorite story. People still talk to me about it, and that’s what I got.

Adam Hussein, who played Asha’s twin brother Aadi, recently left the show, but Tanisha won’t be following him anytime soon. “Adam wanted to see the world and do other things, but for me my brain has to finish something before starting something new,” she says.

Charlotte Tilbury announces epic new celebrity ambassador to launch Christmas gifts

For Charlotte Tilbury’s 2025 Christmas campaign, the queen of glam will introduce an incredible new celebrity face.

No beauty brand does Christmas quite like Charlotte Tilbury. The glitz, the glamour, the A-lister names – plus, of course, dozens of incredible gifts guaranteed to delight any beauty lover – Charlotte Tilbury and her eponymous brand totally nail Christmas shopping every year.

The brand also collaborates with an incredible A-list face every year to kick off the Christmas season, and 2025 is no exception. The one and only Celine Dion, who is currently playing for the Tilbury team this year, is a musical titan.

This is the best under-£100 beauty advent calendar I’ve seen, and it saves you more than £500, READ MORE.

READ MORE: My all-time favorite dry shampoo for cleaning hair recently received a major upgrade.

Following on from her incredible performance at last year’s Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony, for which Charlotte Tilbury’s Global Artistry Director Sofia Tilbury did her makeup, she teamed up with the brand for its Star Confidence campaign, which is characterized as “Charlotte’s unshakable belief that everyone can become their most beautiful, confident self and feel alive.”

Celine describes the epic collaboration as “awesome to join my dear friend Charlotte for this magical holiday campaign.” I’ve always believed that beauty and music can lift and inspire confidence. I’m Alive’s soundtrack served as a genuine celebration of resilience and joy, thanks to my song. I hope that everyone in this campaign is reminded that having self-assurance is the best gift you can receive because having it is possible when you are alive and well.

And Charlotte Tilbury’s incredible gift collection, with something to fit every budget, is one way that will make any beauty lover smile and gain confidence this Christmas. Here are our top three picks from our shopping head, Zoe Cripps:

Charlotte’s Beauty Treasure Chest, a cost of £175, is the first item. The brand’s recognizable advent calendar is out of stock or needs to be restocking frequently, and this year it’s been redesigned as a jewel-handled chest stocked with makeup and skincare icons. From the award-winning Magic Cream to a full-size Beauty Light Wand from Pillow Talk, inside are both travel and full-size treasures. Given that the calendar offers a savings of around £90, it’s a treasure hunt for those who love beauty and, most importantly, great value for what you get.

Additionally, Charlotte’s Mini Viral Beauty Icons cost $35. This little kit is smart and stylish, and I’ve always thought that minis are the simplest way to test out a brand. It’s a fresh take on the popular girl’s favorite, Pinkgasm Beauty Light Wand, and Pillow Talk lipstick, all in one-time, incredibly portable sizes. Whether a person is a Charlotte fan or a complete novice to her goods, this gift is suitable for literally anyone. It will fly, whether you put it in your handbag or into a stocking.

The Star Confidence Perfume Set, priced at £80, is the final item I believe will define the holiday season. You can wear it daily and carry a spritz in your bag because this bottle is full-sized 100ml and has a travel size of 10ml. The scent, which only appeared on shelves this week, has a warm floral scent of blackcurrant, jasmine, and oakmoss in it, perfectly embodies Charlotte’s adage that self-assurance is the best beauty secret. Everyone will enjoy this sophisticated scent, and fragrance is always a crowd-pleaser of a gift.

You won’t find gorgeous beauty gifts in Charlotte Tilbury this year, of course. While Debenhams may not be the first place you’d think to shop, it actually has a huge selection of deals, often for less than anywhere else, including its ever-popular Star Gifts.

While I’m at it, I highly recommend Hannah Martin’s creations for this year’s beauty advent calendar, which was created in association with OK! Beauty Box retails for more than £600 and is priced at $99. Here is my full review of it.
