A huge TV and pop icon from the 1980s is currently in “advanced talks” to appear on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here this year!
Martin Kemp is poised to become the first star to join I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here as the second member of a family to have the jungle experience. The Spandau Ballet star is in “advanced talks” to join the hit ITV show when it launches next month.
And he’ll be following in the footsteps of his radio presenter son, Roman, who took part back in 2019. One insider said: “Martin is a household name having been top of the hit parade with Spandau Ballet in the 80s and then in EastEnders in the early 2000s – he’s a great signing and everyone is very excited at the prospect of getting him Down Under.”
One person who’ll be particularly thrilled is Roman himself, 32, who told the Mirror a couple of years ago that he’d be “very up” for his famous dad to take part.

When Roman did it, he lasted the full 22 days and finished in third place, behind Corrie star Andy Whyment and winner Jacqueline Jossa.
But as he did it, he faced some challenging Bushtucker Trials, for which his father was at least partially held accountable after he exhorted the public to nominate his son.
Roman told the Mirror in 2022, “Listen, I would do anything to have my dad eat llama anus.” He recalled that the first time he was nominated was during the eating trial, so I’ll explain why. When you’re there, you become so enthralled about why people are supporting you because they think, “Am I coming across as a d*** and people want to see me suffer”?
Turns out, the only reason I was chosen to participate in the trial at the beginning was the tweet from my father, “Let’s get my son to eat kangaroo anus.” I’m very interested in him entering, my God.
Once Martin arrives in the jungle, there will be a Kemp TV takeover in Britain with him on ITV alongside hosts Ant and Dec and his kids Roman and elder sister Harley Moon competing on BBC1’s Race Across the World from next week.
Additionally, Martin, who regularly appears on Celebrity Gogglebox with Roman, will be following his ex-bandmate Tony Hadley, who won sixth place on the show in 2015.
The singer of hits including True, Gold and To Cut a Long Story Short, afterwards described his jungle experience as “one of the best things I’ve ever done” despite his endless conflict with fellow contestant Lady Colin Campbell, who took an instant dislike to him.
Martin, 64, married to former Wham backing singer Shirley Holliman, is unlikely to ask Hadley for tips, after the rest of the Spandau members fell out with the lead singer when he quit the band in 2017.
Hadley and Gary, the band’s songwriter, were unlikely to collaborate again, he claimed earlier this year in the Mirror. He and I have not spoken in ten years. He claimed that I had no connection to the Spandau incident at all.
This was made after Gary claimed that he and Tony had never been friends “northern,” even in a high school, in 2021. However, Martin has always expressed optimism regarding a reunion, saying, “I would love to do it and I know Gary would love to do it. It’s very challenging to get five adults to say “yes” simultaneously. I understand Tony’s motivations for wanting to sing solo, and he doesn’t want to do it at the moment.

I’m a Celebrity is expected to start on ITV on November 16 with other camp-mates likely to include Emmerdale’s Lisa Riley and ex- EastEnder Shona McGarty plus radio host Nick Ferrari, comedian Ruby Wax, model Kelly Brook and presenter Vogue Williams.
A show spokesman said the official announcement would come soon, adding: “Any names suggested for I’m A Celebrity are speculation.”
Shoppers who prefer the high-end boots can save on a similar look.

Primark is selling ‘stylish’ £18 boots that resemble a £325 alternative. The high-street fashion retailer is known for offering affordable clothing and footwear, and the store’s autumn range is now on the shelves. Among the styles, shoppers can find a pair of faux leather boots that resemble a high-end design.
Primark’s £18 Faux Leather Block Heel Ankle Boots look similar to Russell and Bromley’s £325 Infinity Block Heel Ankle Boot. While it should be noted that there are differences between the boots, Primark’s more affordable offering could impress fans of the high-end style who want a similar luxury look for a lower price.
An alternative to traditional black ankle boots is available. The block heel, square toe, and zip fastening are all common design features. The construction of the boots is similar, but the more expensive pair is made of black Nappa leather.
Primark describes its offering as ‘black faux leather ankle boots with low block heel and squared toe’. Available in-store and online, the boots range in size from UK 3 to UK 8, although some sizes are currently out of stock for click-and-collect customers.
The full product description reads: “Step out in style with these black PU block heel ankle boots. Made from smooth leather-look PU, they offer a sleek, polished finish and a modern squared toe.
The inner zip makes them simple to slip on and off, while the low block heel adds comfort for all-day wear. They add modern style and practical comfort to your shoe collection in a straightforward yet elegant way. “
The boots, which are made in Italy, have a leather lining, and a 6cm heel height, according to Russell and Bromley. The shoes are available in stores and online and come in sizes from UK 3 to UK 9.
This is Infinity, according to the full product description: “Streamlined and versatile. A comfortable block heel and impeccable craftsmanship elevate a classic design. “
While everyone has their own preferences and both styles are likely to become popular, Primark boot buyers can save over £300. Additionally, Primark has a line of ankle boots that will appeal to shoppers who prefer a different style.
Another option could be the £18 Block Heel Stretch Ankle Boots. Primark says: “These ankle boots come with a block heel, a stretch material around the ankle and a round toe.” There’s also the £20 Rita Ora Sock Chelsea Boots. Primark says: “Black Chelsea boots with sock-style knit ankle and chunky lug sole.”

Fans have gone wild for Claudia’s coat(Image: Sinead McKeefry/Instagram)
Celebrity Traitors’ last episode had a lot of surprises, but one thing that didn’t shock us was Claudia Winkleman’s stunning outfit. The presenter’s wardrobe has become our go-to source for winter and autumn attire, and she wore the perfect coat last night.
One viewer praised the look with the tagline, “The coat, the collar, the color, exquisite, another styling dream come true,” according to another viewer. While another declared, “The jacket is to die for! the texture and color. Want it”! The shape, the color, and the coat were all cited by a third person.

The cable knit vest by Claudia Winkleman is a must-have layering piece for the winter.
The look was revealed last night by her stylist Sinead McKeefry, who wrote, “Forever faithful YSL,” giving hints that the khaki coat is a product of the high-end label. And don’t worry because the high street has been producing some brilliant lookalikes that are much more affordable than Claudia’s exact coat, even though it is no longer available and probably out of budget.
Marks &, Spencer Wool Blend Single Breasted Coat, £75
This M&S coat is the closest we’ve found to Claudia’s Saint Laurent coat, with everything from the notched lapels to the asymmetric button fastenings giving it a similar look to the designer one. It comes in a beautiful light khaki colour that’s the perfect shade for autumn, and has an oversized fit that’s great for layering over chunky knits. You’ll need to be quick if you want to nab the M&S coat, though, as it’s currently sold out in all sizes except a 10, 12 and 14, although reviews suggest it “fits a little big”.
£99.99 Mango Oversized Wool Coat With Maxi Lapels
Mango’s Oversize Wool Coat, which is available in a darker khaki shade than the M&, S one, is another excellent option for less than £100. It also comes in black if you want something even more traditional. The double-breasted closure gives it a more elevated appearance while maintaining Claudia’s slightly asymmetric design. Additionally, the wide welt pockets and notched lapels add some finishing touches for a luxe appearance.
£50 ASOS Design Khaki Formal Trench Coat
Continue reading the article.
This £50 ASOS gift is ideal for anyone on a tight budget because it totally pays homage to Claudia’s style without breaking the bank. It has double breasted fastenings and an oversized lapel to give it the same high-end appearance as it does with a more cropped waist and sits on the waist. The ASOS one, however, has a brushed finish to give it the same appearance as the other two, which is made of polyester rather than wool.
After the Traitors star rebuffed her claims that the Can’t Say No singer is the father of her daughter, Conor Maynard threw a brutal jibe at Charlotte Chilton.

Conor called Charlotte’s grotesque tears “fake.”
Charlotte Chilton has been mocked by Conor Maynard for her ‘fake tears’ after she insisted he was the father of her daughter. Though two tests said the musician was not the father of Charlotte’s baby, she is adamant he is the dad.
A DNA test in March 2025 revealed that Charlotte’s daughter had been born in October of that year. Another study was conducted in August, and the results were the same.
However, Charlotte claimed in a recent interview that Conor is the father and that the results are inaccurate. Conor Maynard is the only person who can be my daughter’s father, she said, “I have researched and researched trying to find the answers.”
“I’ve spoken with experts about the possibility that I could have had twins but lost one very early,” I’ve learned. Then, strange genetics emerge, allowing the twin to have taken a particular DNA sample to prevent her father from appearing on a paternity test. Chimerism refers to it.
After Charlotte’s teary interview was published in a social media post, Conor has since responded. Before he appeared on screen and held a box of tissues, he played a clip of Charlotte crying during the interview.
Before playing a clip of his song with the lyrics “Why you keep on talking baby, won’t you stop talking/Ain’t nobody listening cause you talk too much, please shut up with a cherry on top,” he said, “Here’s an invisible tissue for your invisible tears.”
Along with the post, he simply stated, “My response to the most recent news.” Conor’s supporters included his brother Jack, who called it “absolute cinema.”
Conor previously exclusively told The Mirror how he was still suffering following the scandal. He told us: “I’ve pretty much always poured what I’m going through into my music, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Since this was a pretty intense situation to go through over the last year and a half, it made sense to continue my usual process of putting it into my music.”
He continued, “Of course, many of the lyrics to the song are utterly in jest, but I believe they primarily point out how this entire situation could have been avoided.
“I was always of the opinion that the situation could and ought to have been handled quietly and privately, especially since no evidence existed prior to its reaching the court of public opinion.”

It was not beneficial because it was conducted in full public, but it is now too late to do that; what is done is done. So, in my opinion, the lyric kind of emphasizes that sometimes it’s better to handle situations before shouting them out loud.
The 37-year-old Strictly Come Dancing star has been a staunch advocate for women’s health, especially since she’s had to fight multiple tough battles of her own.

Strictly Come Dancing star Vicky Pattison, who is currently competing in the cherished BBC dance show with professional partner Kai Widdrington, has recently demanded greater support for women facing reproductive health struggles after revealing she spoke with Health Secretary Wes Streeting.
During the October 28 show of Good Morning Britain, Vicky explained that at a gathering the day before with the Health Secretary, she had highlighted the crucial matter, saying: “I said it needs better funding. We need to close that gender gap completely in terms of female reproductive health.
“The things they are struggling with are different, different female reproductive health issues, but the one common thread is that when they go and visit the NHS, a doctor, whatever, they are ignored, dismissed, in some way made to feel like this is in their head, they are hysterical, and that is the medical misogyny that we’re trying to tackle.”
This isn’t the first occasion Vicky has campaigned on the issue, as women’s health causes remain dear to the 2015 I’m a Celebrity winner’s heart — particularly given she’s battled numerous difficult challenges herself.
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder Diagnosis
The Honesty Box presenter was given a crushing diagnosis of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) in 2023 – a condition that renders her physically and emotionally exhausted every month.
The NHS describes PMDD as a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), featuring similar but much more extreme symptoms, including headaches, muscle and joint aches, sleep disturbances, binge eating, fury, anxiety, depression, and even suicidal thoughts.
Speaking frankly to Heat magazine, the Celebrity Masterchef 2019 finalist revealed her battle with PMDD, describing how healthcare professionals initially brushed off her symptoms, insisting there was “nothing wrong”.
She said: “I spent the best part of the last 10 years thinking I was descending into madness, being told by doctors there was nothing wrong with me. They were insinuating that I was just weak and dramatic.”
Earlier, in a heartfelt Instagram post showing herself with swollen eyes, the Ex on the Beach star had discussed her diagnosis, writing openly: “There are a few things that exacerbate my anxiety. When I’m tired, overworked and just not looking after myself properly I don’t feel as though I have the energy to fight off the intrusive dark thoughts. I also just feel like I’m more susceptible to that negative self-talk when I’m low and burnt out.”
Strictly Come Dancing and anxiety
Before Strictly Come Dancing kicked off, Vicky opened up about her worries of becoming trapped in her ‘own head’ and heaping excessive pressure on herself to secure top marks. Speaking to Mail Online, Vicky admitted: “I’m feeling a lot of anxiety about Strictly. I know I should just be excited to be considered for shows like this – I didn’t feel anything like this when I went in the [I’m A Celebrity] jungle.”
She added: “Maybe it’s a bit of imposter syndrome, maybe it’s working-class feelings of being undeserving. Maybe it’s deep-rooted self-doubt.”
The Strictly Come Dancing star, who was just 22 when she rocketed to stardom on MTV’s Geordie Shore, even burst into tears during a press day before the launch programme. “I thought I was doing an alright job of hiding it but obviously I’m not,” she said. “I’m just out of my comfort zone and it’s really scary when you’re out of your comfort zone and I am a bit overwhelmed.”
Since then, Vicky has discussed candidly her experience living with PMDD, and how remarkably supportive Strictly has been whilst she struggled through rehearsals, saying: “It [PMDD] affects me in the 10 days before my period. That is panic attacks, anxiety, insomnia, exhaustion and in some moments, there can be suicidal thoughts. Like every woman dealing with it, I’m just riding the wave.”
She added: “There are moments I can be OK and be the bright, shiny version of myself that everyone expects, and then there are moments where I’m debilitated by it. Now, everything feels heightened and stressful. I’ve been burying my head in the sand a little bit saying it’s ages away, but it’s not. I’m learning as I go. Strictly take things into consideration.”
Egg Freezing Journey
At 35, Vicky took the bold step to freeze her eggs – and this was before she wed her partner Ercan Ramadan in 2024. The reality TV star has been candid about sharing her journey on social media and also featured in the BBC documentary ‘Egg Freezing And Me’.
Speaking earlier on Good Morning Britain, Vicky explained her reasons for freezing her eggs, explaining: “I will be 37 this year and the harsh reality of a woman being over 35 is that your eggs are described as geriatric, which tastes really painful coming out of mouth but it’s the medical term.”
Vicky has confessed she’s never felt especially broody, having focused on her career throughout her life. She previously revealed on Loose Women, where she was a panellist until 2017, that she kept expecting a “burning desire to have children, but it never really came”.
As time went on, the reality star became worried that maternal feelings might suddenly kick in at an age when natural pregnancy would no longer be an option for her body – leading her to start considering egg freezing. At 35, three of Vicky’s eggs were fertilised with Ercan’s sperm to create embryos, which medical professionals told her had a 20% chance of resulting in a baby, reports Wales Online.
She also decided at that time to freeze three as unfertilised eggs, which carry a 10% chance.
The reality star said at the time: “I have been hurt before and it would be foolhardy to not have a back-up plan so I decided to keep some to myself. I’m safeguarding my future happiness.”
Battle with alcohol
In an exclusive chat with The Sun, Vicky opened up about how alcohol had completely consumed her life at one stage, as the reality star admitted she had begun knocking back 10 drinks daily – revealing she despised who she had become.
She told the publication: “I drank pretty much every day. I would have about ten drinks a day. Wine, spirits, anything really. I begged for days off work. Then I’d feel even lonelier and drink more.”
Vicky said she was “determined” not to mirror her father John’s path, who has battled addiction and been in and out of rehab.
She added: “I was convinced that people would realise I wasn’t anything special and it would all be taken away and I was turning up late for jobs. I don’t think I ever turned up drunk, I always slept, but I was not in a fit state to work.”
Vicky explained that when you’re a guest on talk shows, you’re expected to be “witty and warm, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed – not still shaking off the lethargy of five gin and tonics.”
She admitted: “I hated myself back then. I work very hard not to become that person.”
Struggles with food
Vicky has also been candid about her past struggles with “disordered eating”. In a heartfelt Instagram post shared in 2024, Vicky admitted to her followers: “I used to be cruel to the girl in the first photo… I let her eat what she wanted but I constantly berated her. Called her names and made her feel worthless. Just because of a number on a scale.”
She continued: “I was cruel to the girl in the second photo as well but in an entirely different way. I would count how many blueberries I put on my porridge, restrict my calories and weaponise exercise. That girl was a nervous wreck”.

Vicky confessed that she was “unhappy” during those periods, grappling with “anxiety”, “disordered eating”, and “low self-worth”.
