Angry Ginge’s wild links to Manchester United after he branded player a ‘f***ing traitor’ – The Mirror

Skip to main content

The I’m A Celeb star is a huge fan of football team Manchester United and has built an online platform around it, leading him to have some wild connections to the club

Angry Ginge’s links to Manchester United:

  • Before I’m A Celeb fame, the Youtube and Twitch streamer built a platform about his love of football. Angry Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, grew up in Manchester and made no secret of the fact that his favourite team is Manchester United. Some of the videos he posts to YouTube are of his reactions to his favourite team’s games.
  • As a lifelong Manchester United fan, he grew up idolising Wayne Rooney – and later became friends with the footballing legend.
  • Wayne joined Ginge’s Fifa team Girth and Turf, despite his questionable e-sports skills, and the two have regularly collaborated on videos.
  • According to Ginge, Wayne is one of the reasons he’s doing I’m A Celeb. He told the Mirror: “He said he can’t wait and he’ll be voting for me to do trials as well.”
  • He’s even worked with the team, appearing in their promotional video for their 2024-2025 seasonal kit, alongside Barry Keoghan and former Man Utd captain Bryan Robson.
  • And he’s played at the team’s iconic stadium. In June of this year, Ginge was part of the England squad for Soccer Aid, which also featured the likes of Louis Tomlinson, Sam Thompson and Bella Ramsey, as well as Ginge’s pal Wayne Rooney at Old Trafford. In a video posted to TikTok, Ginge said it was a “dream come true” to play there.
  • However, not all his links to Manchester United have been as positive. Ginge almost came to blows with ex Man Utd star Carlos Tevez at Soccer Aid. The pair grappled over the ball, and later Ginge took to social media to show he was bleeding after the incident.
  • He wrote: “Cheers Tevez. T***.” This isn’t the only time he’s bad mouthed the player, as Ginge later revealed that he had his Soccer Aid shirt signed by all the players, except for Tevez. He explained: “The f***ing traitor Tevez ain’t signing my f***ing shirt.”

Sam Thompson says ex Zara McDermott took his prized possession

By in Entertainment News, News

Sam Thompson has accused ex girlfriend Zara McDermott taking his Crocs after the couple agreed to end their five year relationship in January

Sam Thompson has said his ex Zara McDermott took one of his favourite things. The former Made In Chelsea star, 33, dated Zara for five years before the couple decided to go their separate ways in January.

But soon after she left Sam’s Chelsea home, which she had moved into, he claims to have noticed that she had taken his Crocs with her. Sam made the admission while on the Staying Relevant podcast he shared with former TOWIE star Pete Wicks.

During their latest episode, Pete asked Sam what he would choose to wear to a high profile fashion event, to which Sam said Crocs, without hesitation. He said: “Got to be the Crocs. Shock value. Get the jelly shoes on.”

In response Pete said: “You haven’t worn the Crocs for some time now because you…” Pete wasn’t able to finish his sentence before Sam then chimed in and said: “Yeah, Zara took them.” Feeling sorry for his best pal, Pete simply said “Oh god.”

In a bid to not dwell on his break up and the loss of his beloved possession, he changed the subject swiftly. He went on to say: “I need a new pair of Crocs. I actually don’t have any Crocs.”

The conversation surrounding his break-up comes after he revealed that he had finally made his relationship with Talitha Balinska, official. Sam has been dating Talitha, 25, for a few months but recently announced that she was now his girlfriend.

Sam and Talitha first met two years ago when she modelled for Sam’s sunglasses brand, Dinelli, which he co-owns with former Made In Chelsea’s Reza Amiri Garroussi.

At the time, Sam was in a relationship with Zara but he is thought to have reconnected with her when she was invited to one of his live shows at the O2 Arena. Unable to contain his excitement, he informed his listeners of his news. He said: “I’ve got a girlfriend. I’ve got a girlfriend!”

Pete then joked: “We’ve lost him again to the dark powers of a woman.” And speaking about the moment he decided to take things to the next level, the reality TV star confessed: “Mate, it was just super relaxed. “

He added: “It was so boring really, but that’s kind of how I wanted it to be. We just went for dinner, and I was like, ‘I really like you’. And I just went, ‘I’d love to be your boyfriend’. I don’t know why I’m panicking more now!”

He continued: “Yeah, I just said, ‘Look, I really, really like you, and you make me feel really… comfortable. I feel like I can be myself around you. I don’t want to be dating anyone else. I’m 33, I wouldn’t be dating someone this amount of time if I didn’t think it had legs to last. So will you be my girlfriend?’ And she said ‘yes’ And so I said, ‘great’.”

Liam Payne’s sister says ‘the best was yet to come’ in heartbreaking admission

By in Entertainment News, News

Liam Payne’s sister Ruth shared a heartfelt post in memory of the late One Direction star who tragically died in October last year while in Argentina

Liam Payne’s heartbroken sister Ruth shared a sweet message in memory of her late brother Liam.

The One Direction star tragically died after falling from his third floor hotel balcony while in Argentina last October. Liam, who was only 31 at the time of his death, left behind a devastated family and a son, who he shared with former pop star Cheryl.

In the emotional post, Ruth told her followers that she was “missing him so much”. Sharing a picture of her and Liam, the image was from a 2019 Facebook post, which was in celebration of his solo album being released.

Their other sister Nicola shared the Facebook post with fans at the time and said: “Tonight at midnight my brother’s first solo album comes out. At 14 years old Liam set off to become a singer. He joined a band at 16 and the last 10 years has been on the most mad career path ever!”

She continued: “We as a family have stood side stage for the last 10 years cheering him on. All hoping that one day he would get his own album out and showcase just how talented he is, when I finally get in my car tomorrow and press play on the album I will feel so proud of his achievement,,.. I only wish my drive to work was longer than a couple of songs.”

Ruth who re-posted the sweet message captioned her post saying: “Oh mate, the best was yet to come. You’re missing so much.” This comes a few weeks after she paid tribute to Liam, 12 months on from his funeral. She shared a childhood picture of the two of them together.

Alongside her picture she said: “A year ago today, the hardest goodbye I’ll ever have, a funeral I should never have had to plan and every day since, I should have never had to live without him.”

She added: “Missing him now is part of breathing, it doesn’t get easier, that’s just a lie to make it feel better: Infinite love, infinite loss.”

In memory of her late brother, she posted an open letter to him where she gives fans an insight into the daily pain she feels as she grieves the loss of her beloved brother.

She penned: “I underestimated grief, woah, did I underestimate it. I am paralysed by it daily. I thought I had felt it before but I know the losses before you were just intense sadness, you are the loss of my life, the one person who l will miss at every single occasion in my life.”

She added: “I’d taken for granted that my little brother would be there through life. You shouldn’t have died.” Ruth also revealed she’s been having a recurring nightmare that places her in Liam’s hotel room moments before his death on that fateful night.”

Ruth went on to say that Liam “can’t hear me screaming for you, my brain is locked on your last minutes on this earth, the unaccounted minutes, the minutes I will never have the answers to, the minutes that changed everything.”

Explaining her grief, Ruth went on to add that she struggles to cope with life without him as she said that his absence “is something that happens to me everyday before I even open my eyes.”

She went to say that she would give anything to have five more minutes with her beloved brother, as she described all the things she love to tell him, including joke telling.

Asking for people to respect the family’s grief and privacy, she went to share: “Whilst I am still on my knees struggling to regain balance since my world burned down and every time I try to take a step, something comes and sets fire to all the progress I thought I had made in my mind, in trying to understand where or why Liam isn’t here helping me through this.”

She added: “Everyone only seems interested in the public side of this, some sadly seem more interested in the fame they can gain off this, but on the human side people need to remember when they speak, there is a son without his Dad, parents without their child and I am lost without my brother. Love always Liam, in every lifetime.”

Holly Hagan’s heartbreaking final act of kindness for sister after teen’s tragic death

By in Entertainment News, News

Geordie Shore star, Holly Hagan, has shared her final moments with her sister, Darci, who tragically died in October following an accidental drug overdose

Holly Hagan has shared her heartbreaking last moments with her sister, Darci, following the teen’s tragic death.

Darci, 19, died in October following an accidental drug overdose after she took crystal MDMA at a nightclub in Manchester. Geordie Shore star, Holly, 33, who recently revealed she is pregnant with her second child, told fans she was “traumatised” without her sibling, who lost her life just 48 hours after mixing the drugs into her drink.

Opening up about Darci’s devastating death in the hospital after she suffered two cardiac arrests and was declared braindead, Holly revealed that she rushed out to buy her sister some new pyjamas in the middle of the night. Heartbreakingly, she also asked that Darci’s hair, including her £800 new extensions, be brushed so her mum ‘wouldn’t see any knots’.

Talking candidly about the “horrendous” time, Holly told the Mail: “I got her some pyjamas, which seems crazy, I was in Asda or Tesco in the middle of the night shopping for pyjamas for my dead sister.

“I said, please ‘can you brush her hair because she’s just got £800 hair extensions and my mam will be absolutely fuming that her hair is in knots’, so they brushed her hair, they put her hair in a bobble and that was the end.”

In another devastating admission, Holly revealed she recorded Darci’s heartbeat before they left her for the last time. She shared: “We were all there and we had an opportunity to say goodbye. My mam rang me and she didn’t know how to leave the room because she knew it was the last time she was going to see her. Eventually I dragged her out. But before that, I had the opportunity to record her heartbeat. We had the opportunity to say goodbye.”

Darci’s death was announced by Holly in October and police later confirmed that the teen had fallen ‘seriously ill’, when she was believed to have taken drugs. Her funeral took place last month, with Holly sharing the order of service on her Instagram writing: “My sister, my forever friend. His auntie, his greatest gift. Now our guardian angel….I hope we did you proud today baby girl. We all miss and love you so much.”

Before the funeral, Holly admitted she wasn’t sure whether to post anything on social media, as she admitted her family had suffered the “toughest four weeks of our life.” She shared: “A little life update from last week. I wasn’t sure whether to share or not as honestly this is such a vulnerable time and I’m not really someone who sits and cries to the camera usually but this is the reality of where I’m at right now x.

“It is and has been the toughest four weeks of our entire life. I actually just don’t know how to process this whole situation, and neither do my parents.

“I don’t think anybody realises how much this affects everybody in their lives, the amount of people that’s been affected by this is just absolutely mind blowing. Like, my world has stopped. Her parents’ world has stopped. We feel, like, stuck and then the world keeps spinning.”
