Emily in Paris, a Netflix hit series, has returned for its fifth season, and with it all the fun, playful, and flirty fashion and beauty moments we know and love. There is hardly ever a scene where we don’t want to get our hands on at least one thing on screen, from extravagant outfits to classic French beauty moments.
Claudia Winkleman’s former boss says their time together was a total disaster. While Claudia is now a popular TV presenter, hosting shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and The Traitors, she was once a PA at a glossy magazine.
At the time of her appointment as the “clothes-obsessed” fashion editor at Tatler magazine, journalist Kate Reardon was just 21. She and Claudia, who was Claudia’s assistant at the time, shared a closet there.
Kate however says Claudia, who has appeared on TV screens for over three decades, was “spectacularly bad” at her job. On one occasion Kate even claims Claudia was caught “sleeping on a sunbed” while on a fashion shoot on a yacht, after colleagues became concerned she might have fallen overboard.
Writing in The Times, Kate said: “At one point Claudia Winkleman was my PA. She was spectacularly bad at the job. Once we were doing a fashion shoot on a yacht in Thailand and the whole crew was beavering away in the oppressive heat and humidity. “Where’s Claudia?” Nope, no sign of her.
We weren’t aware of it because we were too focused on the model’s hair, so I started to feel nauseous, convinced she had drowned and had fallen overboard.
She was found lying peacefully on a sunbed, where the search party eventually converged on the top deck where they had discovered her. She was so adorable that we all quietly stooped away and began the shoot, which seems absurd now. ”
Claudia, who studied art history at the University of Cambridge, launched her broadcasting career in 1992 when she began appearing in BBC Two’s Holiday. The series culminated in a special where she spent 34 days, reporting from Japan, India, Costa Rica and Dubai.
She also appeared on shows such as This Morning as a dating connoisseur. However she landed her first major role a decade later, presenting on Central Weekend before going on to work on BBC Three.
When Sir Bruce Forsythe was unavailable, she appeared as a relief presenter on Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two in 2004. She then joined Tess Daly in the results shows before permanently occupying the position in 2014.
The Traitors, a highly acclaimed murder-mystery series that will return for its fourth series in January, has been her main focus since 2022. The BBC is currently looking for their replacements, so Claudia and Tess have confirmed that the current season of Strictly will be their last.
In a joint statement on Instagram, the duo said: “We have loved working as a duo and hosting Strictly has been an absolute dream. We were always going to leave together and now feels like the right time.
Russell Brand took aim at his ex-wife Katy Perry’s new romance with Justin Trudeau during a US political event.
Brand launched a verbal attack on the former Canadian Prime Minister, who’s been with the pop star since the summer, over his policies. He also detailed his hatred of authority raged against the current Labour government. The former stand-up comic also praised Donald Trump’s actions and ‘performed near miracles” in The White House in 2025. He took swipes at Trump’s predecessor Joe Biden and made a joke about his son Hunter’s drug addictions.
The British man continued, “I’m done with Hollywood,” but he didn’t discuss the possibility of facing charges in the UK for a number of alleged sexual assaults. He did, however, say he would never trust “human authority.” The 50-year-old was greeted with mixed receptions at the wife of murdered activist Charlie Kirk’s Phoenix event at Turning Point USA.
Brand suddenly started talking about Perry, 41, dating the politician during a speech about politics and his faith. His former mother-in-law, Mary Hudson, was present in the audience.
He then addressed his ex, saying, “I love my wife,” after first reflecting on his feelings for his current wife. Oh no, my ex-wife’s parents are here. I adore them because they are Christians. I adore Mary Perry. God’s blessings on you. I appreciate you bringing this message to my attention.
I must admit that I was married to Katie Perry, though. She still inspires me to love her. And I’m happy to see her mother watching me say this. But look, Justin Trudeau and Orlando Bloom were both acceptable.
“Come on man. Don’t put me in a category with that guy. That globalist stooge.” He then changed the subject: “Alright, praise Jesus. Come on kids. God’s real,” But later he circled back to attack Trudeau. “I’ve got nothing but good things to say about Katy Perry or indeed anybody. Justin Trudeau on the other end. Oh man.
Political leaders who lack genuine power and appear to be working for global bureaucracies that appear to be sort of auditioned into political power pose the greatest threat to our society. It is present everywhere, just like it is in my country and France. These are not actual political figures or leaders, as we are aware of. By looking at them, you can see it. We’d say they serve as the foundation of deeper interest. whether that’s the when, the who, or an occult phenomenon that I don’t understand.
He continued, “I’d like to be positive and forgiving and loving is a message that I need to share.” He then made fun of Trudeau for being involved in a black-face scandal. “And I’ll say that because he has a nice haircut, people tend to black out more,” he said.
He repeated at the conclusion of his speech that “I’ve been glib and flippant about Justin Trudeau; he’s a child of God.” He deserves happiness, respect, and love. And I ask that he may receive. I ask that you all pray for it. We don’t act like our Lord, for he has no favorites, as long as we pick favorites.
Four women were named as the defendants in a case that involved five counts of assault and rape earlier this year.
He has refuted the accusations, saying that he “absolutely refutes” them. Brand never addressed his court cases, but he did express his disapproval of authority.
He said, “I don’t trust human authority and I’ll never trust them, so I don’t like the idea that we are supposed to submit to it unless it’s supported by the Lord.” He later yelled, “Yield to no human power. Don’t believe them.
Get used to acting against authority figures, man. I dislike being told what to do. Never have I trusted anyone. I’m a bad driver as a result. In the event of a clear-cut divergence between traffic, I’ll tell you that stop signs and traffic lights are perfectly acceptable systems because, alright, I suppose.
He wins if a car approaches a red traffic light and a car is coming. I get red and the game.
“The colour of blood, the colour of fire, I get it. But in the event that it’s the middle of the night and there’s a red traffic light, I’m taking my freedom as an American because the world has been captured by evil and they’re training you to be obedient….break rules every day just to remind yourself, you can bow down to the only true authority, not a made up phony authorities (who) turn up here telling us what to do.”

‘I’ve got to say, though, look, Katie Perry, I was married to her. I love her still. And I’m glad that her mom’s in the room to see me say this. But look, I was okay with Orlando Bloom, but Justin Trudeau?
“Come on man. Don’t put me in a category with that guy. That globalist stooge.” He then changed the subject: “Alright, praise Jesus. Come on kids.

We have it in my country, in France, we have it everywhere. We know these are not real political leaders or real political figures. You can see it by looking at them. They are the operatives of deeper interest, shall we say. Whether that’s the when or the who or something more occult that I don’t understand.
He went on: “I’d like to be positive and forgiving and loving is a message of forgiveness and loving that I need to share.” He then poked fun at Trudeau for being caught in a black face scandal: “And I will say he’s got a nice haircut, so black up less – hairdressers more.”
At the end of his speech, he raised the Canadian again: “I’ve been glib and flippant about Justin Trudeau; he’s a child of God. He deserves love, and he deserves respect, and he deserves happiness. And I pray for that for him. I pray for it for all of you. As long as we are picking favourites, we are not acting like our Lord, for he has no favourites.”
Earlier this year, Brand was charged with five counts of assault and rape stemming from allegations from four women.
He has denied the accusations, saying he “absolutely refutes” the claims. Brand never addressed his court cases, but expressed his loathing of authority.
He stated: “I don’t like the idea that we are meant to submit to human authority unless it’s backed by the Lord because I don’t trust human authority and I’ll never trust them.” He later yelled: “Yield to no human power. Don’t trust them.
“Get used to disobeying authority, man….I never like being told what to do. I’ve never trusted authority. It makes me a bad driver. I’ll tell you that because I think, alright, for example, stop signs or traffic lights, these are perfectly reasonable systems in the event of an evident contraflow of traffic.
“If there’s a red traffic light and there’s a car coming, he wins. I get the game, I get red.
“The colour of blood, the colour of fire, I get it. But in the event that it’s the middle of the night and there’s a red traffic light, I’m taking my freedom as an American because the world has been captured by evil and they’re training you to be obedient….break rules every day just to remind yourself, you can bow down to the only true authority, not a made up phony authorities (who) turn up here telling us what to do.”
Married At First Sight UK viewers have been left stunned after a fan favourite from the 2025 series revealed her new romance.
Rebecca Fenney had declared she was on the hunt for an ‘Alpha’ when she signed up for the Channel 4 show, where complete strangers tie the knot upon their very first meeting. She was matched with Bailey Smith and although the initial chemistry wasn’t there, the couple quickly hit it off during their honeymoon getaway.
The pair went on to become one of the most solid couples of the series, with aesthetics clinic owner Rebecca even vowing to relocate from Liverpool to the south coast to be with the brewery boss and his young daughter Bluebell in the heart-wrenching finale.
Sadly, their relationship crumbled after filming wrapped, with the couple announcing their separation just days following the reunion special, reports OK!
In an extensive statement, Bailey tackled speculation that cheating had caused their split, writing: “I want to make it very clear, I never cheated on Bec at any point. I didn’t handle our break up well and for that I’m truly sorry to Bec, but I was completely loyal the whole way through our relationship.”
Now, following the messy break-up, Rebecca has finally let the world in on who her new beau is – and it’s certainly not who fans were anticipating. The reality star confirmed earlier this month that she had a “new love” in her life, though she kept their identity under wraps.
In a TikTok clip shared yesterday evening (18 December), she disclosed that her new love interest is Liverpool FC footballer Lily Woodham. In the footage, Rebecca explains: “In your thirties a girl will come into your life when you least expect it.
“You’ll question everything you’ve ever known about yourself. Who you are, what you are, how this feels so right? It’s important you don’t try and fight it. Let love in.”
“Well that’s a plot twist,” commented one reality telly enthusiast beneath the post, whilst another chimed in: “My jaw dropped. Plot twist. LOVE this for you.” A third remarked: “Absolutely love this and another win for the girls.”
Someone else, clearly not up to speed with their reality viewing, confessed: “I haven’t finished watching MAFS! It seems I’ve missed A LOT!”, as another follower gushed: “What a beautiful plot twist! Wishing you both nothing but the best.”
According to her Liverpool FC profile, Rebecca’s new girlfriend Lily signed with the club prior to the 2025/26 season, having transferred from Seattle Reign in America.
