Emmerdale’s Ash Palmisciano looked totally smitten as he cosied up to his long-term girlfriend.

The actor made his debut on the ITV soap back in 2018 as Matty Barton, having become the first ever transgender actor to star on the show. Playing the son of soap legend Moira (Natalie J. Robb), it’s fair to say 36-year-old Ash has been involved in several big storylines.

From his character undergoing top surgery and ending up in prison to his beloved marriage to Amy (Natalie Ann Jamieson), who tragically died last year, his time in the Dales has not been short of drama.

However, away from the soap, actor Ash is in a relationship with girlfriend Shea Rowan. The couple went Instagram official on New Year’s Eve as they rang in 2022 together.

And recently, Ash no doubt delighted fans after he reshared a gorgeous photo of the pair on his own Instagram Story. In the photo, taken on a Polaroid, Ash and Shea could be seen looking loved-up with one another.

Ash has previously spoken about Shea and gushed over his girlfriend for all of her support. He told OK! in 2024: “She’s really proud, and I’m very lucky to have her. She’s very level-headed and chilled-out.”

However, Ash quipped: “Shea was a bit annoyed that I got married in the show. She helps me learn my lines and really helps me with the wedding stuff.

“We’re good mates with Natalie [Ann Jamieson] and her partner too – we live quite close to each other so we all hang out together.”

Ash sadly suffered his own personal grief in 2022 after the death of his beloved mum aged 60, after reported complications from long-term rheumatoid arthritis. He told The Mirror: “Mum was the most important person in my life.”

He then expressed his gratitude that Shea was able to meet his mom before she died. Ash revealed: “I’m glad Mum got to meet her a few times before she died.

“We’ve been through a lot in a short space of time. I believe lockdown taught us all that you know straight away if something’s meant to be though.”

Brooklyn Beckham’s reported feud with his parents David and Victoria is said to have reached a new low after he sent a legal letter urging them to only contact him via lawyers

View 4 Images

Brooklyn Beckham is reported to have contacted his grandparents directly, despite accusations of him abandoning them in the feud with his parents.

David and Victoria Beckham’s eldest son Brooklyn, 26, has been criticised by fans in recent weeks after his brother Cruz revealed he had blocked his parents and siblings shortly before Christmas, in a family feud that has been going on for months.

Brooklyn then opted to stay in the US and celebrate the festive period with wife Nicola Peltz Beckham and her family, despite Victoria’s mother Jackie Adams hanging a stocking for him on the mantlepiece of her fireplace.

Meanwhile Sandra’s comment on a post of Brooklyn’s also appeared to go ignored. Brooklyn filmed himself wrapping a bottle of his hot sauce, to which David’s mum Sandra posted: “That for me?”, followed by a series of sweet emojis. The comment went without a reply from Brooklyn.

These sparked rumours that Brooklyn wasn’t in contact with his grandparents as well as his parents, drawing criticism from fans. But, it has since been reported that the Cloud23 founder is in fact in private contact with his grandparents.

It has been claimed he has had phone conversations and texts with both Tony and Jackie Adams and a Ted and Sandra Beckham – it has also been claimed he called them all over the Christmas period.

A source has told The Sun: “Brooklyn absolutely adores them, and knows how much pain this is causing everyone.

“So he has reached out in his own time, but tried to keep it low-key so as not to drag them into it.

“Brooklyn is navigating this soul-crushing ­family feud as best he can but it isn’t easy on anyone. Nicola remains his absolute rock.”

While Brooklyn is reportedly in a good place with his grandparents, the same can’t be said for his parents David and Victoria. It has been claimed Brooklyn sent a legal letter to his parents requesting them to not contact him or tag him on social media – and to contact him via lawyers only.

It has been claimed the letter was sent “at the end of last summer” and requested for “any correspondence to go via lawyers only” in an attempt to “try and make amends privately not publicly”. However, the move has reportedly left the parents not knowing what to do as they “had no other physical means of reaching out to” Brooklyn.

The eldest of the Beckham clan is said to have then blocked his immediate family after Victoria liked a post on Brooklyn’s page which saw him share his chicken-in-beer recipe.

The source went on to say that the Beckhams were “utterly bemused and devastated” by what had happened, with the chance of a reconciliation seeming further away than ever.

It’s been claimed the feud between the Beckhams and the Beckam Peltz’s has been boiling for almost four years – and is said to have begun in the lead-up to Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding and worsened over the past year as Brooklyn snubbed his parents birthdays and several other special occasions including David’s knighthood and Victoria’s Netflix documentary premiere and fashion show.

Claudia just brought back an old Faithful

View 2 Images

If you’ve been watching The Traitors this week and clocked a familiar silhouette, you weren’t imagining it. Claudia Winkleman has brought back her trusted sculpting leggings for season four, styling them once again with an oversized top and her go-to chunky Miu Miu boots.

The leggings are the SpanxShape Booty Boost Full-Length Leggings, designed to do exactly what the name suggests. Made from Spanx’s signature performance fabric, they feature targeted shaping panels and a contoured waistband that lifts and defines from the back while smoothing through the waist and hips. We couldn’t see Claudia’s bum, but we can confirm her legs looked long and sculpted in snaps her stylist, Sinead McKeefry, posted of her perched on an armchair.

On the subject of Claudia’s styling, this week Sinead has leaned into contrast. The fitted base of the leggings was balanced with a slouchy shacket, creating shape in a cool way. The addition of chunky boots added weight to the look, making the outfit feel casual but not overly sporty. The outfit looks good Scottish estate, but is one you can replicate for weekend walks or pub lunches.

As we say, this isn’t the first time these trusty leggings have made an appearance on The Traitors. Claudia has worn them on repeat for all seasons, usually preferring to wear them with an oversized blazer. Though she comes back to this seam-free sculpting pair often, we’ve also spotted her wearing a leather look pair.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, known in the music industry as P Diddy, was sentenced to 50 months in prison in October after he was found guilty on prostitution-related charges.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has repeatedly asked Donald Trump to pardon his prison sentence, it is said.

But the US President, 79, has described the shamed rapper as “very hostile” and indicated he will not agree to the request. The pair had been good friends but Mr Trump suggested their relationship soured when he initially ran for president in 2016.

Since then, Combs — known as P Diddy in the music industry — has been found guilty of prostitution-related charges. The father of seven was sentenced in October to 50 months in jail, though it is now understood he wants help from his former friend.

Yet, speaking today, Mr Trump said he has no intention of granting Combs’ request. Speaking previously about how his and Combs’ “relationship busted up,” the US President alleged Combs made “nasty statements” about him when he ran for office in 2016.

Speaking to the press last year, the world leader said: “I haven’t seen him, I haven’t spoken to him for years… I don’t know. I would certainly look at the facts. If I think somebody was mistreated it wouldn’t matter whether they like me or don’t. I got along with him great. Seemed like a nice guy. I didn’t know him well. But when I ran for office, he was very hostile. … It’s hard.

“We’re human beings. We don’t like to have things cloud our judgment, right? But when you knew someone and you were fine and then you run for office and he made some terrible statements. So, I don’t know. It’s more difficult,” he added. “Makes it more, I’m being honest, makes it more difficult to do.”

But photographs show P Diddy and Mr Trump at various events throughout the late 1990s when the musician was at the height of his fame, and Mr Trump had made his wealth through his family’s real estate business.

Recalling his history with Mr Trump, Combs sent him a letter last month, it is understood. According to the New York Times, this was a request to be pardoned — less than three months into his jail term.

When he was asked more details about the request, Mr Trump said: “Oh, would you like to see that letter?” HJowever, The Times noted that the president did not produce the letter.

Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson took to Instagram and shared the heartbreaking news her twins, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe, had been diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)

A father has told how his toddler was left paralysed in both legs overnight due to the same condition with which Jesy Nelson’s twins have been diagnosed.

Charlie Brown, 29, has issued an urgent warning to the Little Mix star about what could lie ahead for little Ocean Jade and Story Monroe, who were born in May. Charlie’s daughter Dani-Rae, now four, uses a wheelchair as her spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) has got worse over time.

But Charlie, who shares Dani-Rae with 26-year-old Tyler, has reassured the Little Mix singer, who expressed her grief on This Morning on Thursday. Charlie said: “Our message to Jesy is that it will be okay — it’s not an easy road and we would never pretend otherwise.

“All the little milestones will feel like winning the lottery over and over. The thing that needs to change is newborn screening, but also medical professionals’ knowledge on this condition.”

Charlie has backed the Mirror’s campaign for every newborn to get a simple £5 blood test on the NHS to detect for SMA. The condition causes progressive muscle weakness and wasting.

Dani-Rae became paralysed following a delayed diagnosis. Charlie, who is from Abertillery, south Wales, believes her plight — and those of families since — would have been lessened had such a blood test been available.

Charlie added: “If diagnosed and treated early, life is very different; the disease is stopped before it even starts. Or at least it’s caught early enough. While we are angry about our delayed diagnosis, we’re more angry that it’s still happening to other families three years later.”

Although little Dani-Rae will never be able to walk again, Charlie continues to champion the detection of SMA and raise awareness of it. The little girl suffers from type 1, the most severe type of SMA, which can sadly cause fatal respiratory failure in young children as the muscles around the lungs can’t cope with expansion.

There are treatments available to slow down the deterioration of muscles and give Dani-Rae a chance at independence, such as Zolgensma gene therapy.

Dad-of-two Charlie added: “She will never be able to walk again but we are going to try everything to give her the best chance possible of regaining as much movement back as she can.

“There are two types of treatment that could save her; gene therapy to hopefully stop further deterioration, and physio and hydro treatment to keep her muscles moving and hopefully build them up.

Singer Jesy Nelson would have been best served had she “never been famous at all,” according to an insider.

The source said Jesy, 34, struggled with the fame into which she and her Little Mix bandmates were thrusted having won The X Factor in 2011. They added: “Looking back now, I wonder if the best thing for her would have been to have avoided those auditions.”

Their reflection comes amid Jesy’s battles following her twins being diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), which can cause muscle weakness. The star, from Romford, east London, has warned other parents of the symptoms of this, which gets worse over time. Her campaign – for every newborn to get a simple £5 blood test on the NHS – has been backed by the Mirror.

But this hasn’t stopped fans share their concern for Jesy, who became emotional on This Morning on Thursday. Sources close to the singer opened up about Jesy’s difficult time in the limelight since 2011, including abuse from online trolls and a suicide attempt. The initial source continued: “She wanted fame, she wanted to be a star… Maybe it would have been best if she had never been famous at all.”

After Little Mix won the ITV show, cruel online commenters told Jesy, then just 20, she was the “ugliest thing” and “deserved to die” because she was curvier than her bandmates. Yet, Jesy defied the haters to help Little Mix Little Mix become surely the most successful act to have won The X Factor (One Direction came third in 2010).

The band had five UK number one singles, including Shout Out to My Ex in 2016 and Sweet Melody in 2020. Jesy and the other girls achieved a total of over 15 billion streams on Spotify, performing in more than 20 countries and selling three million concert tickets.

They split, though, in 2022 and Jesy has faced further challenges since then. Jesy’s daughters Story and Ocean, who were born prematurely in May, have been diagnosed with SMA, which is a genetic disorder which causes progressive muscle weakness. The earlier the condition is detected and treated, the less severe it becomes.
