Molly-Mae Hague has teased some tension with her older sister Zoe ahead of the launch of her Amazon Prime series titled Molly-Mae: Behind It All.

The former Love Island star, 26, is returning to screens this weekend with three new episodes of Behind It All, after the first series won an NTA award earlier this year. At a launch event today at London’s Selfridges, Molly-Mae teased that there could be some drama in store for viewers when it comes to her and her sister Zoe, 28.

The sisters famously clashed in the last series of the Amazon Prime show over Molly-Mae’s relationship with professional boxer Tommy Fury. During the filming for the first series, mum-of-one Molly-Mae found herself heartbroken and longing for better days following her split with Tommy, also 26.

The couple split for a number of months due to Tommy’s alcohol issues, but they have since rekindled their romance and seem happier than ever as they co-parent their two-year-old daughter, Bambi.

However, during their break-up, Zoe was the one to give Molly-Mae some reality checks amid her concern for her younger sister and her emotional wellbeing after the sudden split. Viewers watched at the time as the sisters bickered with one another, with Molly-Mae claiming Zoe was being too harsh and too protective, while Zoe told her younger sister that she would be silly to get back with Tommy.

Fast-forward a year and Molly-Mae and Tommy are very much in love again following Tommy’s dedication to sorting his alcohol issues out. But according to Molly, there will still be some drama between herself and Zoe in the new series – despite herself and Tommy being back on track.

Speaking at the screening of the first episode today, Molly-Mae said: “I think Zoe is, like, one of the closest people to me, and it’s actually been really nice, kind of, especially in the last series, they’re showing the highs and lows of also a sister relationship.

“Because I think if anyone has a sister, you know, like, it can be savage at times, and then my sister is literally, like, the most honest person of me ever,” Molly-Mae added.

“Like, I’ve said this before, but I still send her all my Instagram photos before I post them, being like, honestly. Like, what do you think. my sister’s my rock, and also with family. Like she’s literally got me through motherhood. She’s incredible, and I wouldn’t want to do this without her, like she’s a massive part of my life,” she shared.

Molly-Mae also teased that she’s set to open up about struggles she has never publicly spoken about before. Of the new series, she said: “I was able to kind of trust the crew a little bit more and just to sort of let go a little bit, which I definitely have done in this season.

“I think you’ll see there’s bits that maybe I would have held back or wanted to sort of shy away from sharing, or topics that I feel like I didn’t maybe put the trust in the crew to talk about last time, because there’s just new territory for me.

“But this time around, I’m like, You know what? This isn’t our first rodeo. Now, we’ve done this before. I can really put my trust in them and just know that they’ve got my best interest and just more of a leap of faith with this one.

“I do feel really nervous about them, because we do talk about things in there that I haven’t spoken about before, but yeah, kind of just trusting the crew,” Molly-Mae admitted.

The social media superstar went on to admit that fans will see a whole new side to her in the new series, and they will be in for a shock.

Mum-of-one Molly-Mae revealed: “It’s definitely a new way to share my story. I feel like maybe Instagram is like that polished highlight reel where we keep it kind of like just in one lane, and YouTube is also where I can share a bit more, but never as much as I felt like I’ve shared in the doc, especially this time around.

“I’ve really spoken about things that I especially in two and three, that I just haven’t really delved into before. And just it’s been really nice to actually just speak a bit more. I feel like, over the few past few years, I kind of don’t speak as much, but having this show has been has enabled me to kind of just, yeah, be a bit more like ‘this is me’.”

While the whole second series shows a different side to Molly-Mae, she revealed that there’s one episode in particular that she’s incredibly anxious about.

“Episode three, I’m probably most nervous for. I mean, honestly, I’m definitely more nervous for this season than I was the first because I think it just delves into me more,” she admitted.

“And I think because obviously, last time, there was a lot going on and there was a lot of different storylines, and I felt like it was, it was about me and it was about other things at the same time, yeah. But with episode three, we definitely share things that in a dream world, maybe I’ve been like ‘CUT’. yeah.

“But I think also that’s just me at the start, because I was like, we’re gonna do it. Let’s just do it. Go for it. Like, show the good, bad, the ugly. Like, not every day goes smooth. But yeah, episode three is the drama.”

Kate Cassidy, the girlfriend of Liam Payne, has shared an emotional tribute to the late One Direction star on the first anniversary of his death. Liam tragically died aged 31, after falling from the balcony of his third-floor hotel room in Buenos Aires.

Sharing a black and white picture of the two of them to Instagram, she captioned it: “Today marks a full year without you here. I will forever hate goodbyes. I miss you Liam.”

In the photograph, Kate is smiling with her eyes closed and lies on top of Liam, who has his arm around her and is kissing her cheek. She also posted a picture to her Stories. That one was also black and white and had Liam beaming at the camera while Kate, wrapped up in a coat, hat and scarf, hugs him from the side.

The comments of the first post were flooded with people sharing in her grief. One wrote: “We miss him too. Thinking of you today.” Another wrote: “Sending so much love today, he’s always looking down on you.”

Kate has been very open about her grief since Liam’s death, and felt the need to speak out after some fans criticised her for finding comfort in AI-generated photos of her and the singer.

Created using generative AI, Kate shared some realistic photos fans had posted of her and Liam smiling together. Some fans pointed out the dangers of using AI in this way, and one of Liam’s former colleagues even described her decision to share them as ‘distasteful’.

But Kate hopped on TikTok to tell her followers to “stop judging people for how they grieve”. She said: “Over the last few days, I’ve seen so many posts and so many news articles kind of bashing me for finding comfort and peace in seeing pictures of me and Liam created with AI.

“None of you have ever been in my position and hopefully you never will be, so please, please please, kindly stop telling me how to grieve and how I should be finding comfort and what I shouldn’t be finding comfort in.”

Earlier this week, Kate also shared her plans for the anniversary of Liam’s death. She said she was spending the lead-up on a brand trip to “keep her mind positive”.

She said: “I am getting ready to go on a trip. I’m obviously transparent and open about my life on social media. I have been for a while now. This week hasn’t been the easiest week and it’s not going to be the easiest week.

“I have so many mixed emotions and my grief comes in so many waves. No matter what I do, I get commentary so if I make this video, people are going to be like, ‘Of course she had to make this video’, but if I didn’t make this video and just went on a trip, people would be like ‘What is she doing? How is she not in bed crying?’

“For those who might now know, October 16th, which is in two days, is the date my late partner passed away I have said this so many times in the past, I like to stay busy. It keeps my mind positive and keeps my mind active.”

Liam died on 16 October 2024 after falling from the balcony of a hotel in Argentina. The singer had been on holiday with Kate, as they were seeing his former bandmate, Niall Horan, perform. However, while she returned home, he chose to stay on a few days and she was not with him when he died.

Absolutely Fabulous star Jennifer Saunders has lent her voice to one of Amazon’s best-selling books in an effort to work towards her goal ‘of doing more for the planet’.

Comedy icon Jennifer Saunders has lent her voice to a new audiobook aimed at encouraging youngsters to reduce their plastic usage. During a recent episode of her popular ‘Titting About’ podcast with Dawn French, Saunders revealed her goal for the year was to make a positive impact on the environment.

First-time author Bertie Stephens was inspired by her comments and reached out to ask if she’d be interested in narrating the audiobook version of his debut book, Ellie Ment and the Material Matter . The book, which targets readers aged 9-14, has already become a bestseller on Amazon since its release in June, with the audiobook released earlier this week.

The tale blends science and fantasy, earning praise for its ability to spark kids’ interest in STEM subjects and environmental issues. Saunders, who accepted Bertie’s offer to narrate the audiobook, said: “I loved Ellie from page one.”

She added: “It’s funny and a bit mischievous, but it sneaks big ideas in too – how science works, what we owe the planet, and why asking questions matters.

“If a good yarn can make kids curious enough to try an experiment or think twice about their plastic usage, that’s a win.”

On her podcast, Saunders had said: “[This year] I’m going to do more for the planet – that’s my plan.”

She’s already made changes at home, stating: “I don’t have toothpaste anymore, I have little toothpaste pills. I just use soap. I don’t use any big shower gel plasticky things, and I don’t use plastic in my washing up liquids. I don’t use it in anything.”

The audiobook was launched with a video trailer featuring The Clean Planet Orchestra, who provided a bespoke soundtrack for the book composed by musician Joe Hogan.

Since its release over the summer, Ellie Ment and the Material Matter has been embraced by clubs and schools in both the UK and USA, even becoming the inaugural reading material for over 1,000 students across seven states in America.

The book has soared to the top spot on Amazon’s charts in both the UK and the US, boasting a 4.7-star rating on Goodreads and earning a coveted “Get It” recommendation from Kirkus Reviews.

It also bagged the highest accolade at the Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards, considered the most prestigious and longest-running national awards scheme in America dedicated solely to children’s literature.

Much of the book’s success can be attributed to social media, where snippets and recommendations have been shared on accounts with millions of combined followers.

Popular school influencer Holly Hos (@thehos), who boasts a whopping 1.5 million followers on TikTok, gave the book a shout-out, racking up over 10,000 likes and comments across her social media platforms.

A representative from the Clean Planet Foundation, the publisher of the book, explained that the non-profit organisation uses storytelling as a tool to spark children’s interest in environmental issues and science

They said: “This STEM book gives more young people the chance to see that science can be every bit as magical as fantasy, and important for helping the environment around them.

“Adding Jennifer’s incredible voice to the audiobook will help thousands more children discover Ellie’s story and the magic that already exists in the world around them.”

Former Love Island star and YouTube sensation Molly-Mae Hague is gearing up for the release of season 2 of her hit Amazon Prime docu-series titled Molly-Mae: Behind It All

Molly-Mae Hague has admitted that she’s riddled with anxiety ahead of the launch of the new series of her reality TV series, insisting that fans are set to see a whole different side of her. The 26-year-old is returning to screens this weekend with three new eps of Behind It All, after the first series won an NTA award earlier this year.

At a launch event at Selfridges, Molly-Mae teased that she’s set to open up about struggles she has never publicly spoken about before. Of the new series, she said: “I was able to kind of trust the crew a little bit more and just to sort of let go a little bit, which I definitely have done in this season.

Last month, Molly-Mae’s dreams came true when she won her first National Television Award for her Amazon Prime docuseries. The influencer beat off competition from the likes of Amy Dowden, Freddie Flintoff, and Rob Burrow – who she dedicated her huge win to.

Molly-Mae faced harsh criticism after her incredible win for Best Authored Documentary at the NTA’s, and has now admitted that her dream of winning the public-voted gong has added the pressure.

“It definitely added the pressure, I think, within the NTA, I mean, we felt the pressure anyway, because I’m massive perfectionist, and I just want everything that I put out to be like I just said before,” she shared.

“I want them to enjoy it and fit to be perfect. But I think often in NTA, it does just add that pressure, because people like, okay, it’s winning awards. So follow that same energy. But no, it’s been so fun doing it again.”

Molly-Mae returns to the spotlight this weekend with Prime Video hoping the series is another big hit after Series 1 became the most-watched series on Prime Video by young women (18-34) in the UK.

The new series shows Molly Mae as she embarks on an exciting new chapter as she takes her business empire to the next level while navigating the challenges of motherhood with daughter Bambi under the scrutiny of millions.

She also spoke earlier this month of her hope to have a second baby one day and a sibling for Bambi. “I think about it a lot and it’s something that I feel quite a large pressure around because I’m desperate to give Bambi a sibling,’ she told Cosmopolitan.

“My life wouldn’t have been the same without my sister. I was the younger sister, so I benefited even more from having someone to guide me and someone to look up to. I’d want that for Bambi, but I would never want to do it just for her – I’d want to do it also because it’s something I want to do.”

Molly-Mae: Behind It All eps 1-3 of Series 2 launch exclusively on Prime Video on Saturday, October 18. The latter three episodes will drop early 2026.

The waiter accused of selling cocaine to Liam Payne has spoken out about his treatment from other prisoners where he’s being held while a trial date goes unset

View 3 Images

The waiter accused of selling drugs to Liam Payne before his death has spoken out from behind bars. Braian Paiz, 25, claimed he has been assaulted, burned and threatened by the other inmates while he waits to see if a trial date has been set.

Liam Payne died a year ago today, after falling from a hotel balcony in Argentina. The cause of death was ruled as ‘polytrauma’, which is where death occurs from multiple injuries. But a toxicology report showed traces of cocaine, and Paiz was arrested for selling it to the singer, which he denies.

The waiter has been in prison since January, after police raided his home. Most prisoners only spend a few weeks in the holding facility, and are then transferred to formal prisons, but Paiz has been there more than eight months.

From behind bars, Paiz has now done an interview where he alleges he has suffered multiple injuries inflicted by the other inmates. He has claimed that his fellow prisoners, who nicknamed him “Killer”, have assaulted him, hit him with a canister, burned him with boiling water and threatened to electrocute him.

Paiz spoke about his experience in a 30-minute interview with Gente Magazine, an Argentinian magazine. “I live with 15 people in a cell and they treat me like a rat.”

He was not more specific about how badly he had been hurt, but his lawyer, Juan Pablo Madeo Facente, told the Daily Mail that Paiz has been beaten, denied urgent medical care after contracting a urinary tract infection and now relies on anti-depressants.

He has been charged with selling cocaine to the One Direction star, but has yet to face a trial, as the authorities are still working through 800 hours of footage from CCTV and mobile phones. In Argentina, a judge must be presented with evidence to decide if a trial should go ahead before a date can be set. If a trial does go ahead, Paiz could face up to 15 years in prison.

He has admitted to giving drugs to Payne, but has denied taking money for them, which is the offence he’s been charged with. Paiz, who was arrested alongside hotel cleaner Ezequiel David Pereyra, 22, told The Sun that he wished the singer hadn’t died but did not regret meeting him.

He said: “I wish [Payne] hadn’t died and things were different. I used to feel regret about what happened, but actually I don’t regret meeting him as he was my idol and I was a big fan.”

Pereyra also spoke to The Sun and claimed the bosses of the hotel, Casa Sur Palermo, turned a blind eye to Payne’s drug use. He told the publication that the hotel had the singer in “an isolated bunker” and “let him do anything he wanted” because “he was making them too much money”.

“But I think the biggest mistake was not calling an ambulance when Payne passed out in the lobby,” he added. “If the hotel had acted differently, Liam could have been saved.”

Pereyra claimed Liam was moved from the lobby “because that day they had many foreign guests checking in”. Detailing the tragic moments that followed, the cleaner said the bosses called police instead of an ambulance after leaving Liam in his room alone.

He claimed by the time they made the call, “it was already too late.” Pereyra claimed Liam’s death could have been prevented and was “very sad”.

The police investigation has contradicted this and revealed that the hotel receptionist called the ambulance at 5pm, once Liam had been taken to his room.

The Mirror reached out to Casa Sur Palermo when Pereyra’s allegations were published.

Meghan Markle posted a new Instagram reel about her trip to summit in Washington, DC, where it was clocked she showed off her royal title yet again in yet another way

Meghan Markle has raised eyebrows after a hidden detail in her latest Instagram post points to her royal title.

In her brand new social media post, Meghan shared a highlights reel of her time in Washington DC, where she was a speaker at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit.

The clip shows the duchess being driven past the US capital’s most recognisable sights before she arrives at the venue for her appearance and talks on stage before catching a plane back to California.

Early in the clip as Meghan arrives to speak at the summit, a suitcase can be seen pulled through a hotel, with a bag placed on top, bearing the initials ‘DS’ – thought to relate to her royal title Duchess of Sussex.

Earlier this year, Meghan became embroiled in controversy in a row over using her HRH title, which appears to go against an agreement with the late Queen.

Both Meghan and Prince Harry gave up their HRH (His/Her Royal Highness) titles when they stepped down as senior royals in March 2020. But in a podcast interview, a picture is shown of a gift card Meghan sent to a friend that read: “with the compliments of HRH The Duchess of Sussex”.

The bag appearing to show Meghan’s monogram comes after she appeared to take yet another subtle swipe during her appearance at the summit, when she was quizzed on her business plans.

Since they sensationally stepped back from royal life, the Sussexes have signed lucrative deals with the likes of Netflix, while Meghan has launched her As Ever brand, fronted a podcast and had her own lifestyle show.

But at the conference, the Duchess said five years ago, which ties in with her and Harry’s move to the US, “it was a very different situation” – and in what could be seen as a jab at her former life, she added her only plans were to “nest and heal”.

She told Fortune editor-in-chief Alyson Shontell: “You know, Archie was so little, and I had just got pregnant with Lili around that same time, so we were nesting – nesting and healing.

“And also, I don’t know, I had the bandwidth at that time to think about what the big picture dream was. There was no plan.

“It was just, let’s get through these next couple of years, create community, which was always so important to both of us in our new environment.”

“I was probably in Birkenstocks and sweats like the rest of us, especially during Covid, or just barefoot at home, but I was making a lot of jam, so it ended up becoming the thing that really was my passion project.”

Meghan’s appearance at the summit yesterday came at a busy time for the Duchess. She travelled solo to Paris for the Balenciaga show on October 4, ahead of a string of appearances last week with the Duke of Sussex in New York.

And Meghan also admitted that she flew home to California from Europe for just one day before heading to New York, because she needed to see her “babies”.

Meghan said she made a 6,000-mile dash home for a brief reunion with Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four, instead of heading straight to the Big Apple.
