As Simon prepares to audition for his new band, December 10, he is also seen in his Netflix documentary with his “adored” partner, Lauren signing paperwork to change her name by deed poll to Simon’s.

Simon, who was once one of the UK’s most notorious bachelors, has been very vocal about his reluctance to marry. However, he left fans stunned when he popped the question to Lauren on Christmas Eve 2021, insisting that the two will wed.

He claimed that when they do a waltz down the aisle, it will be private and that he never said it would happen.

It’s obvious where all this is going because she mentions changing her name, but it will be private when we decide to do it.

We share a very, very close bond, “says. I adore her. We are genuinely a very happy family. The music mogul revealed that Lauren initially struggled to be on camera with Simon in his new show and that eventually she grew more used to it.

She is exactly the same on the show as she is in real life, which is funny. I was absolutely aghast while watching the show back in some of the scenes.

Lauren, who still uses her ex-husband’s surname, Silverman, is portrayed in one scene as saying it’s high time she changed her name. She responds, “Look, I have a life with Simon, we have a child together, and we have a solid relationship,” in a voiceover from the camera.

She claims that the name change was “forming a unity” with Simon and Eric, and that it was more about our families being one and the same. When Simon and I talked about it, Simon said, “Yes, I would really like you to change your name.”

Lily Allen puts on sultry display in Santa lingerie at star-studded Christmas party

Last night, Lily Allen hosted a Christmas party at one of London’s most notorious nightspots, which officially kicked off the holiday season in style.

Last night at a notorious hotspot in London, Stringfellows, Lily Allen stunned guests with a seductive Santa outfit.

The 40-year-old singer rocked lace suspenders, trimmed with plush white fur, and a snug red mini dress with bows for an extra touch of allure. She fully embraces the holiday glitz by pairing her risqué outfit with a velvety red Santa cape. With a classic Chanel handbag and a blow-dry in the style of the Sixties, Lily chose to add a touch of class. With a pair of towering white heels with a fur detail, she added extra inches.

The mischievous star was caught poking out her tongue while posing and conversing with attendees, which was true to form and never shy of larking about.

Olivia Rodrigo, a pop star, and Lily and other well-known people made the dance floor. She also enjoyed a fun-filled dance performance by the London Gay Men’s Chorus, which was present at the event.

Ella Eyre, a singer, was also present, taking photos with Lily while wearing a sheer red stocking dress. At the glittering event, Bono’s daughter Jordan Hewson was spotted relaxing next to Lily on a sofa.

The renowned gentlemen’s club Stringfellows, which Peter Stringfellow founded in the 1970s, hosted the celebration. Stringfellows quickly grew to become a celebrity hotspot, glamour, and after-hours revelry after opening in Soho, before moving to Covent Garden.

It has hosted everyone from rock stars to Hollywood stars over the years, earning it a reputation as one of London’s most notorious nightlife spots.

Following her separation from husband David Harbour, Lily has released fresh music that has been widely regarded as a “revenge” album. This year brings a momentous moment for her.

Following Lily’s public accusations that the actor was unfaithful, the album explores themes of heartache and betrayal. With poignant tracks Tennis and Madeline, Lily exposed their relationship by accusing him of having an affair for three years while describing their union’s rocky ending in brutal detail. She split from the actor in December 2012, splitting with her in ten days, and she only recently released her debut album, which she hasn’t had in seven years.

‘I worked with Eamonn Holmes – he showed his true colours when I got big move’

Anthea Turner left the show on Christmas Eve 1996 after two turbulent years with Eamonn Holmes at GMTV. She still believes that his jealousy of her National Lottery show was to blame.

Eamonn Holmes, a well-known television presenter who collaborated with him, claims that when she joined him on a well-known daytime TV show, there was almost instant friction.

Eamonn has collaborated with a long line of well-known faces, including his ex-wife Ruth Langsford, and has become one of the most well-known faces on British television for decades.

He hasn’t, however, jelled with any of his former coworkers. Eamonn, who he had with him on the GMTV sofa in 1994, made up for her background, according to Anthea Turner.

“Eamonn is a trained journalist and I’m not,” she told The Times. “That caused tension from the start… The other thing was I didn’t have my ass on that sofa for very long before I was asked to present the National Lottery too, and I think that also annoyed him.”

Anthea’s first lottery show appearance attracted a sizable 22-million-plus TV audience. ‘Eamonn reportedly lobbied GMTV bosses to have her fired, calling her “too ambitious” and giving her the vile nickname “Princess Tippy Toes.”

She claimed that when someone asked if she was ambitious, they would always make out to be ruthless and would walk over anyone to get where they wanted. It could be said that I was “stabbing my feet” or that I was hormonal.

She added: “And yet ask that question to a man, and if he’s ambitious, we think: ‘What a guy’. You’d never hear anyone say that about Eamonn or Phillip Schofield. No, they’re just doing their job.”

Anthea walked away from the “toxic” situation at GMTV on Christmas Eve 1996. Over a decade later, the former Blue Peter presenter said she was still “hurt” by the way she was perceived.

She said, “I haven’t weighed myself down with anything from the past, or any of that negativity,” in a statement on the Miranda Holder Weekly Fashion Podcast.

Nobody wants to be misrepresented, and no one likes injustice. It hurts a lot, really hurt.

Anthea expressed mixed feelings about Eamonn during a television interview in 2018: “There is a fine line between hate and love, isn’t there? ” It’s easier to stay friends with Eamonn and I because we were talking during the break.

Her remarks sparked a somewhat tense atmosphere in the This Morning studio, with Eamonn’s then-wife Ruth Langsford visibly taking exception to Anthea calling him her “ex.”

Before Anthea interrupted her and said, “Ah, but we were telly husband and wife,” Ruth emphasized that she and Eamonn were “properly married.”

Continue reading the article.

She later claimed that any talk of a friendship between her and Anthea and Eamonn was exaggerated, telling the Express: “I don’t think Eamonn and I speak lots.” We reunited, but those are just headlines.

There was obviously the hullabaloo, she added. I remember going there about 15 years ago, and we signed a Good Friday Agreement, and I actually went there where he was doing a show.

Strictly Tom Skinner’s full statement – mystery email to Tess and Claudia’s ‘coincidental’ exits

Tom Skinner, a businessman and former Strictly Come Dancing contestant, has stated in a statement that he won’t participate in tonight’s live final despite claims he received anonymous allegations of voting irregularities.

Thomas Skinner, has broken his silence after it was reported he would be ‘suing the BBC for rigging voting’ following his early exit from the show.

Taking to X, confirming he would not be at the Strictly final tonight after being the first celebrity to leave the show this season. He also responded to claims he is seeking legal advice over the show’s voting figures – revealing he was advised to do so by a team at the BBC to do so. Meanwhile, he also took aim at ‘coincidental’ exits that have taken place following him seeking legal advise.

The full bombshell statement reads: “As most of you will have seen in the papers, I won’t be at the final of Strictly Come Dancing tonight.”

“This is what I want to say first,” I spoke with Amy Dowden, my lovely dance partner, to make sure she understood that I wouldn’t be there. I would never let her down because she is now both a good person and friend.

“When I was given the chance to perform Strictly back in April, I was buzzing.” Not because I can dance, but… I can’t. But because I wanted to test myself and discover something completely out of my comfort zone.

“I received an email from an unidentified BBC executive claiming to have received more votes than it appeared and that it wasn’t accurate the night I left the show.” Since then, the email has been independently verified.

“That same email mentioned the BBC was very angry an nervous simply because I had met JD Vance (USA VICE PRESIDENT). Let me be clear, I’m not a political bloke. Never have been. I just love my country and am patriotic. I’ve been made out by the press to be this political figure. If anyone was to get an opportunity like what I did, they would have taken it. I still think it is mad that a man like me who sells mattresses out of a van can call someone that senior in the world ’s politics a friend now.”

“I’ve requested the official voting figures to refute the information I received in the email, but I was informed that they couldn’t be shown to me.” and have never been shown before. I’ve discussed the email I received from senior staff members and the BBC welfare team, both of whom I genuinely respect. And because of how unfair everything was, they were the ones who advised me to seek legal counsel. (This was not my intention)

“There were also some smaller things that made the feeling stronger. On the show, everyone received a welcome gift, including face masks and skincare products. The only person who appeared to have “got stolen” was mine. It’s nothing on its own. but when it was combined with everything else, it suddenly seemed strange.”

Because I participated in this show, I was made to appear to be someone else who was actually not. The opinions were derived from media reports over the summer that were simply false or exaggerated. What has happened to my family and me isn’t fair.

“I also want to say this judiciously. A very senior BBC official has since resigned after receiving this information and having it verified. Although it didn’t have anything to do with me, it did feel strange. The main hosts also resigned the following week. Again, I don’t want to sound off about it. All of it is purely coincidental. Being truthful is all I’m saying.

“I also didn’t want any of this to appear in the press.” Over the past few months, I’ve found it difficult to accept that much of what has been said has been exaggerated or untrue about me. If I’m honest, it’s not nice what has been said about me because this is my life. What I find odd is that this was national news by Thursday morning after a private Zoom call with BBC executives on Wednesday night about moving forward. That indicates that there has been a leak. because I don’t get it from the press. (It might be from the sender of the email) ….. I opposed making this news national news; rather, I opposed making any of it. I don’t want people to think I’m bitter when I don’t, but I’m writing a statement now to let people know the truth about why I’m not coming. I object to the publication of more untrue stories.

“I’m not kicking off for attention. I’m not saying I should’ve won either. I was rubbish at dancing we all know that. But love me or hate me you do have to appreciate the massive following I have, I can’t even walk into the local Tesco without getting stopped for selfies. I just believe in fairness and respect.”

Continue reading the article.

“I wish each and every dancer the best tonight. They deserve their moment because they have worked their socks off. He concluded the statement by saying, “I have fish to sell on my stall and a family I love more than anything.” I appreciate your constant love. Bosh”.

Tom Brady’s model ex marries her jiu-jitsu instructor beau three years after NFL star divorce

Following her divorce from Tom Brady, the NFL star, Gisele Bundchen, and Joaquim Valente, her jiu-jitsu trainer, have they wed?

Tom Brady’s ex, supermodel, Gisele Bundchen, has said ‘I do’ again after getting hitched to her jiu-jitsu instructor boyfriend.

The Brazilian, 45, who welcomed a baby boy with martial arts guru, Joaquim Valentes, earlier this year, split from NFL star, Tom in 2022. After declaring that their marriage was “irretrievably broken”, Gisele found love with her fellow Brazilian beau in 2023 before announcing they were expecting a baby together in 2024.

After Gisele initially hired Joaquim to teach her kids self-defense, they later reportedly got married on December 3 in an intimate ceremony at their Florida home.

According to TMZ, while Gisele and Joaquim didn’t broadcast the nuptials on social media or make a big spectacle beforehand, this wasn’t a ‘secret’ wedding because close family and friends knew about their plans. The couple were first spotted together in November 2022, when they visited Costa Rica with the model’s two kids she shares with Tom.

The Brazilian bombshell, who is hailed as one of the most iconic supermodels of recent times, originally denied a romantic relationship with her trainer, but a love later blossomed between the pair. In February 2024, a source confirmed the couple’s relationship to People magazine and noted that their friendship had become a romance.

They initially appeared to be close friends, “but they eventually became great friends.” She wanted to keep it quiet while getting to know each other because she is very private about this, a source at the time.

A second source said that Joaquim “was a huge comfort” for Gisele “while she went through her divorce” with Tom. She and the former NFL star filed for divorce on October 28, 2022, after 13 years of marriage.

Ahead of their shock split, Gisele reportedly told Tom that he “either leaves football to spend time with the family or she will be gone for good,” per a US Weekly article published in October 2022.

Additionally, the model also released a cryptic quote on Instagram at around that time, in which their divorce was announced, which read: “You can’t be in a committed relationship with someone who is inconsistent with you. Read that again.”

Before meeting Joaquim, the insider claimed that Gisele was hesitant to date following her divorce and that he was a great man. He is encouraging, kind, and down to earth. After the divorce, Gisele was reluctant to date Joaquim, but it seemed like a natural fit for her.

They share the same background, they say. Both of them were young when they left Brazil. Both of them have built incredible lives in the United States.

Gisele’s in a great space, the pair explained, explaining that they both enjoy traveling and healthy living in Florida. She finds life to be very enjoyable and joyful. Joaquim is ideal for her.
