This de-puffing beauty product, known as the “eye slugs,” appears to be the real star of the show…

Who else will not enjoy this series of Married at First Sight UK? It adds the drama that weeknights have been missing. And while dinner party dramas are undoubtedly the focus of online conversation, a slightly left-field subject emerges that makes viewers’ minds spin.

What beauty item is it that puzzled watchers refer to as “eye slugs” and receives more airtime than some of the more conventional brides and grooms? An under-eye patch is the quick answer. These patches were first spotted on bride Leah at the start of the series, and they’ve since appeared on everyone from Rebecca to Rebecca to Nelly.

MAFS viewers are curious why they suddenly appear out of nowhere, whether or not they are wearing it in the morning or in the evening, or if the item is secretly “sponsoring the show.”

One user on the Holy Church of MAFS Facebook group pens in the comment section of a post dedicated to these under-eye patches: “I’m so happy someone else is talking about this because I was wondering what they are!”

One responds simply with “Eye slugs,” while the third responds with “I had to ask my daughter what they are–are they a sponsor”? !

We can confirm that Leah and Davide use Stella’s gold Under-Eye Masks, which retail for $17.95 for 24 pairs, on Amazon. These tiny gold slugs, which prime the area, reduce puffiness, and plump the appearance of fine lines in 20 minutes, promise to deliver camera-ready under-eyes in 20 minutes.

Explaining further, another Facebook user sheds light on why they’re so visible in this series: “Davide did an Instagram Live saying they get given to them by the production team because their roll calls for the dinner party would start at 6 am.”

Although there are a few other brands of Grace &amp, Stella’s eye patches available, it seems as though MAFS UK brides and grooms prefer using them. There are currently so many available that promise to treat pesky puffiness after long nights, but it would be like finding a needle in a haystack because we could hazard a guess as to which brands the patches are from.

However, we can share that many A-list celebrities use this exact plumping trick before rolling out on the red carpet. For instance, Adriana Lima and Anne Hathaway are referred to as fans of 111 Skin’s Cryo De-Puffing Eye Masks. Although they cost an additional £85 for eight, they are regarded as the most expensive mask on the market.

Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown frequently appears in photos wearing her own Swimming Under the Eyes Gel Pads, priced at £34 for 60, for a little less money.

A brand-new show called Who’s In The Band will feature Simon Cowell, Spice Girl icon Mel B, and Jonas Brothers singer Joe Jonas. A pilot will be filmed the week before the show airs.

One of Simon Cowell’s new projects has been described as “a big two fingers up to ITV”.

The music mogul, 66, has linked up with Netflix for Simon Cowell: The Next Act, a six-episode docuseries which will follow Simon as he searches for Britain’s next big band. He is also going to be on the judging panel of new show Who’s In The Band, which records a pilot next week.

Spice Girl icon Mel B and Jonas Brother singer Joe Jonas will work alongside Simon for the latter, which ex-TV presenter turned producer Richard Bacon says will be popular with teenagers and young adults.

But the Netflix series, Simon Cowell: The Next Act, has particularly excited the TV industry. It is believed Netflix executives “felt bringing a name like Simon in for a factual entertainment show was a power move for the network”. Another source said the programme will be “a big two fingers up to ITV” after the cancellation of The X Factor in 2021.

But a source close to Simon, who created the global X Factor franchise, has denied there is “a rivalry”. They added: “There’s no rivalry nor residual issue – Simon’s focus is entirely on new formats and discovering talent.”

The X Factor, though, was scrapped after nearly 20 years on British TV screens and, at its peak, attracted 10 million viewers on a Saturday evening. It was the launching pad for a number of top-selling British music acts in the last two decades, from One Direction to Little Mix and Leona Lewis.

But Simon, who is thought to be worth £475million, continues to work with ITV on Britain’s Got Talent, which is still a staple after more than 18 years. His latest ventures, though, on other networks have television circles excited, it is understood.

The source told the Daily Mail: “Success on Netflix would be priceless retribution against ITV for the way The X Factor came to a close.” This theory is rejected by Simon, born in Lambeth, south London, whose new show Who’s In The Band will be presented by K-Pop Demon Hunters star Rei Ami, 30.

Following the chaos caused by Simon’s fall down yet another set of steps, Simon’s latest attempt to find talent came after the long-time judge’s auditions for Britain’s Got Talent went down.

He missed the first two days of filming in Birmingham after the incident, leaving producers to call in Stacey Solomon to temporarily fill his place on the panel. The star then later reappeared on the third day of auditions with a visible graze on his forehead, explaining only that he’d had “an accident.”

Katherine Ryan, a mother-of-four and comedian, has admitted spoiling her adolescent daughter and explained why she made the choice.

Katherine Ryan has revealed she is happy to spoil her teen daughter with extravagant presents and expensive flights. And she admits there is a big reason as to why she does so.

The comedian, 42, has four children under the age of 16, including Violet. She is the proud mother of Holland, a newborn, and Fred, a four-year-old.

And while talking about nepo babies, she explained why she is so happy to spoil her brood. Speaking to Paloma Faith on her Mad, Sad & Bad podcast, Katherine confessed: “I don’t raise humble children. I know that being a nepo baby can backfire.

Many of these children have real struggles to reach their potential, which is a terrible feeling. I have, however, decided to give my daughter very extravagant Valentine’s gifts and spoil her as much as I can.

She continued, “I fly her wherever she wants to go, I get her VIP tickets to anything I can,” adding that she didn’t want her to be impressed by another person’s dusty son. I once received a very positive offer of a ride home.

“I consider myself to be a very good mother and a very good father,” he said. My wheelhouse is parenting. I excel at it.

I look after my children, and I’m honest with them. I don’t feel the same shame as many women who choose to be mothers, in my opinion.

Along with husband Bobby Kootstra, Katherine gave birth to baby number four earlier this month. Although Katherine initially made an effort to keep her baby news a secret for as long as possible, Violet’s daughter left a strong hint in a social media post.

The TV star’s husband, Bobby, took to social media to announce the arrival of their daughter in response to her daughter’s behavior. Holland Juliette Kootstra has arrived, he declared.

Another MVP performance was delivered by “The Patrick Mahomes of childbirth”! Amazing to see @kathbum #blessed’s incredible accomplishments.

And after the birth, Bobby revealed that his Canadian wife had Dom Pérignon champagne in the comfort of her hospital room. A bottle of the vintage bubbles retails for about £189.

Katherine tucked into a selection of expensive dishes, including sushi from Nobu, a celebrity hotspot. She did it once more from her chic hospital suite, which she had previously rented.

Earlier this year, Katherine opened up on her wishes for a fourth child as she admitted she didn’t think time was on her side. The former Celebrity Gogglebox star visited a fertility clinic with husband Bobby and discussed the chances of them being able to conceive.

Apparently, their eldest sons, Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz, have a feud with their husband, the sexiest girl, Victoria Beckham.

Victoria Beckham has been keeping busy by promoting her Netflix documentary, but fans still have questions about her and the Beckham family’s feud with Brooklyn. Her and David’s eldest son, Brooklyn, have been hitting headlines this year after he missed many big family events.

Despite the tense relationship, Posh Spice recently showed her support for her firstborn son after he shared a cooking video on his Instagram page. On Thursday, former aspiring photographer Brooklyn took to his social media page to demonstrate how he cooks buttermilk pancakes.

Fans figured out quickly that Victoria and David, both footballers, liked the post, and emailed the comment section.

One fan wrote, “His mum is liking his posts, they miss you, just give them a call,” while another wrote, “His mum just liked the posts.

You appear very depressed. One person remarked, “Make up with your family and you’ll feel much happier.”

It comes after Victoria discussed her family and fashion design career on the Call Her Daddy podcast.

When Alex Cooper from Call Her Daddy asked how she had stepped back and “allowing her children to make their own decisions,” Victoria responded, “I mean, we’re such a close family.

We always let them know that any topics they want to discuss in a safe place, as they say, and communication is key. That is extremely crucial. However, they must embark on their own journeys. ‘.

When probed further on how she and David navigate the shifting dynamics within their family, she maintained: “Again, it’s just about communicating. We’ve always been that way with the kids. And I’m excited for them, they’re all very different. They all like to do different things.”

Brooklyn seems to be actively pursuing “different things” right now. The aspiring photographer turned budding chef has no immediate plans to end the fight with his parents and siblings, according to Victoria’s candid conversation.

A source has alleged that Brooklyn is “really focused on living a peaceful, drama-free life” with Nicola, adding: “They’ve built their own world together and are very content in it. They want to let things settle naturally rather than trying to fix something that still feels tense.”

The insider claimed that the relationships between the Beckham clan are still “huge rifts” and that they are “absolutely broken.” Brooklyn’s ability to communicate with Harper Seven, his younger sister, is still unknown. In the most recent update on the Beckham family feud, the source confirmed to US Weekly that “the relationships are all still strained.”
