Claudia Winkleman’s rarely-seen son Jake gives verdict on Celebrity Traitors

Claudia Winkleman is at the heart of what has become one of the most popular programs of the year and the most popular unscripted show since 2022.

Jake, Claudia Winkleman’s unremarkable son, has written his opinion of the most recent episode of Celebrity Traitors. Three weeks ago, the show aired on television and has already gained a sizable following in the British public.

Since 2022, the most popular unscripted program has been the new celeb version of the beloved show. A number of well-known actors competed to earn up to £100,000 for their chosen charity.

Claudia is at the helm of the show and it seems that her eldest son Jake is quite a fan as well. Comedian Joe Wilkinson is one of the stars that took part in the show but sadly he met his fate when the Traitors chose to “murder” him.

Claudia mentioned in Hello! that her son’s good books are. “My son is such a big Joe Wilkinson fan,” my son exclaims. The presenter claimed she had no problem being professional when Joe approached her because she only wanted to chat.

She continued, “Hello, and is there any way I could get your autograph?” Joe was one of the many celebrities who opted to participate in the program in aid of the organization.

The Faithfuls have yet to discover any of the characters, but chat show host Jonathan Ross, singer Cat Burns, and comedian Alan Carr, who are the show’s traitors.

The Faithfuls are hoping they can one day find at least one of the Traitors as the Celebrity Traitors continue tonight.

Kate Garraway, Nick Mohammed, or Lucy Beaumont will all be the next victims to be assassinated by the Traitors on Wednesday night. They’ll be meeting them in person to hear the announcement, even though it’s a shocking development.

It seems that Claudia’s son Jake is a bigger fan of his mum’s job on Traitors than he is of her Strictly Come Dancing gig. The host has previously said that her son has asked her in the past to give up her role on Strictly.

Back in 2018, the presenter admitted that her then-teenage son had asked her to quit her job despite her working for the BBC for most of her son’s life.

Speaking on The Dan Wootton Interview podcast, Claudia explained: “My eldest son has got a buzzcut. He’s 15 and he thinks his mum’s a loser. It’s heartbreaking.

He states, “It’s just not do Strictly that the main thing is.” If you really loved me, you would stop, sir. He is simply embarrassed.

Claudia and Strictly co-host Tess Daly announced last week that they would be stepping down from their roles at the end of the series. The duo shared a video to Instagram where they announced the news.

They stated that they would be finished with the current series but would not return the following year. Who will replace the recognizable pair is unknown at this time.

Tom Daley reveals life long struggle as he opens up on ‘dark times’

After being told by his diving instructor that he was overweight as a teenager, the Olympian has shared that he still struggles with body dysmorphia and finds it difficult to work out.

Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley has opened up about his ongoing struggle with body dysmorphia and the pressures of keeping up appearances within the gay community, admitting he still finds the gym “intimidating” despite his world-class physique.

The diver and Celebrity Traitors star, 31, revealed that his husband, filmmaker Dustin Lance Black, 51, has been a vital source of support through some of his darkest moments.

While speaking to Radio Times, Tom said: “My husband’s been a huge support in that. I think it’s a big thing in the gay world. Some people have very unrealistic body expectations.”

He continued, “As an Olympian, I go to the gym and I hate it because I’m being judged by everyone for how I’m doing this.” It intimidates me, too.

Tom was 17 years old when his diving performance director revealed to him that he was overweight, and he first developed an eating disorder in 2011. He recalled how the comment sparked a downward spiral of self-criticism and unhealthy eating habits.

He said, “I had no idea what I was doing at the time, so I just cut out the food.” “I used to binge because I was so hungry.” Then, after I binged, I would feel so bad that I would bebulimic for a while. Because I had no one to talk to about it, it was a dark time. Men’s conversations about their eating disorders weren’t intended back then.

According to the NHS, body dysmorphia is a mental health condition where individuals spend a lot of time worrying about perceived flaws in their appearance. Bulimia is a serious eating disorder that can have severe effects on both physical and mental health.

My performance director told me that I was overweight and that I needed to look like I did when I was 14 – I was almost 18 at the time. In a previous interview, Tom stated: “In 2011 I was told that I was overweight and that I needed to look like I did.”

“It was the first time I realized that someone was observing my body in terms of appearance rather than performance.” I had a lot of different issues with body dysmorphia and bulimia, he continued.

After retiring from professional diving in 2024, Tom has turned his focus to new projects, including Game of Wool, an upcoming Channel 4 knitting competition series that he is set to host.

Robbie Ray, age seven, and Phoenix Rose, age three, are his two children, and he hopes to one day share their stories. The family recently watched Tom’s appearance on The Celebrity Traitors, which featured Robbie seeing his father killed in a heartfelt scene at home.

On The One Show, Tom said, “Someones close to me knew what was going on, but they were unsure whether I would turn out to be a Traitor or a Faithful.” What was really sad was when my husband and my oldest son were watching it, and I was actually killed.

“He started crying and was like ‘Papa!’ I was like ‘Robbie, I’m here, you’re fine,’ and he was like ‘I wanted you to win. I hate The Traitors!’ Well, I did want to be a Traitor,” he laughed.

Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan says ‘please don’t let her’ as she shares fears over daughter

The revelation was made by Coleen Nolan, a mother-of-three with sons Shane Jr., Jake, and daughter Ciara, while speaking out against a fan’s plight alongside fellow Loose Women panelist Jane Moore.

Coleen Nolan has shared a candid insight into her fears about her daughter’s love life before she was engaged. In a segment of the Loose Women: Just Between Us podcast, Coleen and fellow ITV panellist Jane Moore set out a fan dilemma that involved the new boyfriend of a listener’s daughter.

There was “something about him” that Jane didn’t like, according to a listener named Joanne who had read his words. Joanne claimed she could “do better” because he “treats her well,” but she was concerned that they were from different backgrounds.

In response, Jane said she sounded a bit “snobby”, a notion with which her co-host agreed. Coleen, a mum-of-three, pointed out that he treats her well, so “isn’t that all you want?” She advised Joanne to let her “live her own life a bit”.

Jane and Coleen, who is mum to sons Shane Jr and Jake, whom she shares with ex-husband Shane Richie, and a daughter named Ciara with ex-partner Ray Fensome, proceeded to elaborate on their own experiences introducing their boyfriends to their parents.

It led to a chat about Ciara and Coleen’s introduction to her daughter’s fiancé, Maxx Innes (the couple are now expecting their first child). She explained that she initially had her own reservations, but he would prove to be “absolutely brilliant”.

He was first introduced to him at a family gathering, according to Coleen, and he was a member of Shane’s band.

She continued, “She came out and I was sitting outside with my friend,” and she said, “Oh, Mum, she said, The guitarist.” She said, “I might have to kiss him because he’s very attractive.”

“Oh God, how funny, what’s she like, I went,” I said. And when she entered, I said to my friend, “Oh God, no, please don’t let her end up with a musician because I just divorced one, that being her dad,” and she responded, “Oh God, no, no, please don’t let her end up with a musician.”

Coleen added that once they started dating, however, her fears were soon put to rest. She noted that it was the “best thing that’s ever happened”, to which Jane replied that he’s a “nice young man”. Coleen added that he’s “absolutely brilliant”.

In April of last year, reports emerged that Maxx had proposed to Ciara while they were on holiday in Vietnam. In the aftermath, Ciara posted a snap of them holding hands as she sported her new ring, writes the Mail.

In her post, she wrote: “It was like a fairytale and I can’t wait to spend forever with you @maxxiness I love you xxx.” Meanwhile, Coleen took to Instagram to share a photo and offer some words of support.

She remarked, “Well what can I say, I’m so thrilled that @maxxinnes has asked my gorgeous girl @ciarafensome to marry him.

Prince Harry’s dark fear for Archie and Lilibet as Meghan scrambles to delete error

There is a very real reason why Meghan Markle and Prince Harry don’t show their faces in public for as long as possible, despite the rumor that Meghan and Prince Harry want to keep their kids away from the public eye.

There is a heartbreaking justification for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s decision to keep their children atop the spotlight.

The Duchess of Sussex, 44, appeared to have unintentionally shared a photo of their two children, Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four, over the weekend when she posted a video of her husband, 41, carving a pumpkin.

Meghan presumably only intended for the Duke of Sussex to appear in the footage, but the video inadvertently captured the faces of their kids as they dashed about in the background.

Meghan quickly edited the video because the royal couple maintain steadfast opinions about the faces of their children, which were later revealed. They allegedly wanted to keep Archie and Lilibet from the spotlight for as long as possible, according to this theory.

Although it is understandable that they want their children to have this level of privacy as children, there is also a deeply troubling reason why they don’t want their faces to be revealed. This is thought to be a result of concerns for their safety.

According to a source, Harry has been reluctant to publicly show his kids because he doesn’t want to protect them from potential threats, but rather to protect their privacy and safety. Without fear of kidnapping or harm, he wants them to lead as normal a life as possible.

Meghan has previously shared images of her children’s faces on Instagram, but they never have to be seen with them completely. Meghan only uploaded photos of her children with emojis obscuring their faces when they visited Disney earlier this year, for instance. This situation won’t likely change until the children are grown up, especially not in the near future.

It comes as Harry and Meghan had all eyes on them on Tuesday as they spent the night at the baseball. The couple were handed the best seats in the house as they cheered on the LA Dodgers at Game 4 of the World Series.

They have proved how they are deeply ingrained in Los Angeles life as they supported their local team in baseball merchandise on Tuesday night. TV cameras were sure to pick them out in the crowd as Harry and Meghan cheered on the team.

The pair’s thousands of dollars worth of front seats clearly appeared to be enjoying them. The Sussexes were seated in the second row, behind former basketball players Magic Johnson and Sandy Koufax.

Sandy is a four-time World Series champion and Hall of Fame pitcher, while Magic is a part-owner of the team. Harry and Meghan were seen greeting fans as they entered the stadium before the game.

Fatboy Slim snogged ‘full on’ by Brazilian football star Ronaldo while DJing his wedding

Fatboy Slim has gained notoriety over the past ten years for his DJing prowess and has just revealed some outrageous showbiz tales.

A huge football star at his wedding admitted to snobbing Fatboy Slim “full on the face.”

Ronaldo, a Brazilian football player, had a special relationship with Norman Cook when the actor was playing DJ for his wedding a decade ago. The sports star hired the DJ for a performance in Paris in 2005.

The star was asked by the retired Real Madrid player to play at his nuptials in the French capital which was attended by a collection of well-known names including David Beckham and his wife Victoria Beckham.

Norman has compared how nervous he was when he first arrived at the reception because he didn’t need to be worried when the drinks started to flow because the evening “degenerated into every other wedding.”

Speaking at the launch of his new book It Ain’t Over… ‘Til The Fatboy Sings, he recalled: “It was in Paris. It was kind of weird. I don’t do many weddings but when Ronaldo – this is Brazilian fat Ronaldo, when he was playing at Real Madrid – phones you and says, ‘Will you DJ at my wedding? The Beckhams are going to be there.’

It ended up being like any other wedding, in my opinion. I was thinking, “Oh my god, I’ve probably forgotten the music they want to hear. Everyone looks so old, and no one really knows each other.”

“Roseo is snogging me full on the face, my mate trying to kiss his wife, his dad’s tie round his head, and it degenerated into every other wedding,” Ronaldo said. “Two hours later, everyone is drunk, everybody is dancing on each other’s shoulders.

The 62-year-old said he recalls the wedding antics but does not recall which songs he sang during his “drinking days,” but that the Big Beach Boutique II DVD, which was a huge hit in Brazil, would have been a significant part of his collection.

The Praise You hitmaker, who celebrated his 16th year of sobriety in 2025, said: “I can’t actually recall what I played.” Simply put, I can recall the behavior.

Ronaldo was one of the people who watched the DVD, and I was aware of his significance. I probably watched the DVD in its entirety. However, I regret not playing Come On Eileen.

Before his wedding DJ gig, Ronaldo and Norman first met when the ex-Barcelona player attended one of his concerts in Rio de Janeiro.

He previously stated, “I started hanging out with Ronaldo a few years ago, he started playing at my shows, and I DJ’d at his wedding. He became a fan while he was playing one of my Rio gigs backstage.

It Ain’t Over… Til the Fatboy Sings, a celebration of Cook’s 40 years in the world of music, is available for purchase right away.

Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden reunite as party goes ‘off the rails’

As the broadcaster continued to celebrate the release of his book, Woke Is Dead, Piers Morgan and his former British Got Talent co-star Amanda Holden recently reconnected in Hollywood, the pair continued to discuss the release of his novel.

A bizarre reunion was enjoyed by Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden.

The former Britain’s Got Talent co-stars have maintained a close friendship since the broadcaster stepped down from his role as a judge on the ITV show in 2010.

The former Good Morning Britain news anchor is currently riding the waves of success following the release of his latest book, Woke Is Dead. An official synopsis for the book states he has delivered a “characteristically combative rebuttal of what he views as ‘woke culture.”

And it appears that Amanda has been assisting Piers in the days leading up to the official launch party in America. At Mastro’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills, the pair reconnected, and it seemed a little too obscene.

Taking to Instagram, Piers shared a snap of himself and Amanda at the swanky eatery after they tucked into some food. As Amanda held the book up, she covered her teeth with a tissue, mocking the now-famous Hollywood smile.

The actress wore her distinctive loose-natural blonde hair in sensational waves. Amanda wore a silk blouse, which she adorned with pearls around the neck. Piers struggled to keep his smile as he relaxed while sporting an undone black shirt with top buttons removed.

He claimed that the Hollywood launch party for Woke Is Dead “went off the rails quite quickly” and that Amanda-only parties do so. Under his post, which has received more than 5, 000 likes, Amanda responded with two laughing emojis.

“True friends,” said one fan. A second added: “You too always look to have the best time.” Meanwhile, a third went on to comment: “I’m Team Piers Morgan all the way. He says it as it is and, if you don’t like it, change channels.” Many of Piers’ online followers explained that they couldn’t wait to get their hands on a copy of Woke Is Dead.

Piers’ celebration comes after he revealed that one thing “saved” him after an awkward interview with President Donald Trump. Just before the interview, Trump had received a file containing every critical comment he had made about him.

Morgan believes that Nigel Farage had supplied the President with the folder. However, there is nothing to suggest that this was the case. Requiring a swift remedy to salvage the interview, Morgan determined that praise was likely the most prudent approach: “I was sweating at this point, thinking, this interview’s off – how am I going to launch my show? This is a complete disaster.

“Ironically, I started thinking on my feet like I would on Celebrity Apprentice: ‘How do I get out of this? How do I game the moment?’ In the end, I was saved by golf.”

Ernie Els, a legendary South African golfer, recently had a conversation with Piers about their recent conversation. Trump reportedly scored a hole-in-one in the game. Morgan therefore chose to concentrate on that rather than any criticism of the notoriously sensitive political background of the leader.

Morgan responded, “I want to talk about some positive things too,” I said to him. And he responded, “Like what? ” And I responded, “Your hole in one.” Everyone is mentioning it right now. He shared the details of a recent interview with Ernie Els that he had read. Trump was described as “the best presidential golfer he had ever played with,” and that his lucky shot was one of the best he’d ever seen.

Morgan continues, “Trump’s entire demeanor immediately changed.” He said, “All right, let’s do the interview.” Ernie saved me, therefore. Farage’s alleged covert behavior, which described the Reform leader as a “tough weasel,” is something that “He hasn’t forgotten.” When he had a conversation with Trump about three months ago, I texted him to say, “Nigel, congratulations on your interview with Donald, great hit. And he said, “Thank you.” How did he give the favor back?
