I’m A Celeb’s Angry Ginge and Alex Scott reunite at SPOTY after star missed his jungle crowning

Angry Ginge and Alex Scott, I’m a celebrity campmates, were among the dazzling crowds at MediaCity in Salford this year.

I’m A Celebrity stars switched their jungle outfits for a much more glamorous look at this year’s Sports Personality of the Year Awards. King of the jungle Angry Ginge beamed as he hit the red carpet and was quick to admit he missed his beloved football while in the Australian camp.

In a completely black outfit, he appeared dapper. He posed while wearing a smart suit, a black shirt, and a black tie, and had his arms folded while posing cleanly.

Campmate Alex Scott – whose fortunes were much shorter lived on the ITV show – also hit the carpet with her partner Jess Glynne. Former England star Alex looked stunning as she wear a maroon figure hugging gown.

Along with her partner, Jess chose to wear a striking black suit with denim detail.

Streamer Ginger explained to journalists at the ceremony at MediaCity in Salford that his favourite sporting moment of 2025 was: “Manchester United beating Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield. Maguire is unbelievable. I love him.”

And he joked that he was looking forward to meeting up with football icon Thierry Henry at the event. He claimed that the French superstar told him he was “unbelievable at centre half” when he played in a game in Qatar.

Since 2023, the duo has been dating. The couple made their relationship public in October of that year. Before going official, they had been dating for two months.

The pair looked smitten at the same event a year later, and Alex and Jess made an appearance. They also put on another beloved display at the time, with Jess displaying her partner’s chic gown. Former football player Alex shaved her locks to create an elegant updo for the occasion.

A silver necklace and stud earrings were the only items that were included in the plunging black dress to complete the look. In a black racerneck shirt and ties, Jess also looked effortlessly chic. She paired it with a pair of bootleg trousers.

Their relationship was further thrust into the limelight during Alex’s recent stint in the I’m A Celebrity jungle. It has since been claimed the pair could turn their back on the UK. Alex has been the face of the BBC’s flagship football programme – Football Focus – and also a regular on The One Show.

Ginge, meanwhile, has been revelling in his success. Following his crowning moment in the jungle, he was quickly mobbed by fans after landing back in Manchester.

Dr Jane Goodall final act of kindness was to be a proud guardian of beloved ‘sassy’ rescue bear

The late Dr Jane Goodall adopted a bear in dire straits the year before she died – but tragically, never made it to the country to visit her at the sanctuary she started a new life in

Trailblazing conservationist Dr Jane Goodall, who died in October aged 91, became the guardian of a moon bear rescued from years of inhumane conditions the year before her death.

The bear, which she named Robinson in honour of her close friend Jill Robinson MBE, founder of charity Animals Asia, had spent 15 brutal years in a cage in Vietnam.

Thankfully, she was rescued last year from the bear bile farm by the charity, which Jane was a long-term supporter of – albeit deeply traumatised, missing part of her front paw and most of her hind paw.

Now, in a moving op-ed written to announce her guardianship of Robinson, due to be released while the much-loved primatologist was alive – and now revealed posthumously and exclusively by the Mirror, the beloved animal campaigner wrote poignantly of the animal’s horrific conditions – and how she never gave up on saving him.

“Imagine being ripped away from your mother as a child, spending fifteen years in a tiny metal-barred cage, and being jabbed almost every day with long needles. That is what happened to my bear Robinson”, she wrote.

“I’ve spent my life trying to speak up for animals, and I know only too well some of the terrible pain people can inflict on them. But even I was horrified when I found out what happens to bears used for bile extraction.

“These poor moon bears spend most of their lives locked in a cage where bear bile farmers painfully extract their bile to be used in traditional medicine.”

Founder of The Jane Goodall Institute and a UN Messenger of Peace, Jane – who over the course of 60 years uncovered the uncannily human world of chimpanzees, went on to explain that, trapped on one of these farms in Vietnam, Robinson was bravely rescued by the frontline team at Animals Asia.

Having arrived at the location early, they discovered a heartbreaking sight – bears lined up in cages in a cold, damp shed – no doubt bitter cold at night and unbearably hot and humid in summer.

She explained, “Robinson came to her sanctuary missing a front paw – most likely from being caught in a snare as a cub. She probably saw her mother die in front of her. Yet in spite of all that terror, she’s sassy but sweet and gentle. She has a crooked little smile and she is, as her carers describe her, a sleeping goddess.”

Goodall, who had previously become guardian of another bear, Mandala, explained that the decision to become a guardian for a rescued bile farm bear may sound small – but to her, was deeply personal. “The bear I’m now linked to is a survivor. And the woman I named her after – Jill Robinson – has done more to end this cruelty than anyone I’ve met.

“Jill founded Animals Asia because she had the courage to find out what was happening to these bears and do something about it. I first visited one of their sanctuaries years ago and kissed a bear on the nose – not the wisest move, but a moment I’ll never forget. Like me, Jill has never given up. Her whole life has been about giving these bears a second chance.”

Goodall also revealed touchingly how Robinson was slowly coming out of her shell in her new home at the Animals Asia 2-hectare sanctuary, set in the beautiful, mountainous surroundings of the Bach Ma National Park, which she shares with another bear, Manu.

“They sleep curled up in straw together, play with hessian sacks, and splash around in the pool. She takes her medicine in sweet syrup and rests on a hammock in the sun. She still lives with the after effects of her injuries, but now she is safe.”

Thanks to the tireless work of Animals Asia, she explained, bile extraction is now illegal, but many bears still remain trapped, explaining that the charity has an agreement with the Vietnamese government to rescue every remaining bear – but a legal loophole is slowing down progress, and time is running out to save the final 150 bears before they die from decades of abuse.

What gave her hope, she said, was “the determination of fearless individuals to put an end to animal cruelty, and the resilience of animals themselves. With time and care these beautiful bears can recover. For Robinson, the time for healing has come. I hope it can also come for every last bear still waiting.”

It was during a poignant conversation which took place in May 2023 between Goodall and her friend Jill Robinson about their incredible careers, that she revealed that she would name the rescued bear after her good friend.

Robinson confessed, “It makes it more special than I can say to have a bear named by Jane Goodall. I will take that and we will choose a bear appropriately. Probably the scruffiest bear that needs lots and lots of care and attention and is nearly naked and you know, isn’t the prettiest bear at all.”

Poignantly, Jane also expressed her desire to return to Vietnam and see the great work Animals Asia were doing on the ground. A delighted Robinson said, “The program is still going to be running as bear farming is winding down in the country. So please, please do come. I’m going to say a big fat yes to that and keep you to your word.”

Goodall replied, “You know, we just do what we do, don’t we? I have to do more than ever because next year I’ll be 90. I don’t know how long I have left, I’ve got to speed up and do more in the time I have left.”

Jane Goodall’s death in LA on October 1st, led to widespread mourning and tributes from across the world. Prince Harry was one of them. He met the world-famous activist in 2018, the pair reportedly “clicking” when she taught him a unique chimpanzee greeting.

That first meeting was followed by Goodall’s visit to Frogmore Cottage the following year, where she held the couple’s newborn son, Prince Archie, and showered the family with care.

Upon her passing, Harry posted a heartfelt statement on social media with wife Meghan Markle, where he remembered the icon as a “visionary humanitarian, scientist, friend to the planet, and friend to us.”

She may be gone, but Jane Goodall left a fierce legacy. As she once said, “We are the most intellectual species to walk the planet, but we’re not intelligent. If you’re intelligent you don’t destroy your only home.”

Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner deaths: New details emerge over son’s living arrangement

Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele’s deaths are currently being investigated by police, with their son being accused of their murders earlier this week.

As police comb through the remains of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele as they piece together new information, new details are being reported. On Sunday, the duo’s Los Angeles home in Brentwood was discovered dead.

Hours later, their son Nick Reiner was arrested. He has since been charged with two counts of first degree murder. It’s alleged the trio were involved in a heated argument on Saturday night as they attended Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party.

However, some people claimed that Rob and Michele had evicted their son from their home after the fallout, but it’s now been proven otherwise. Nick, 32, is said to have left on his own accord instead.

A source has told TMZ the parents didn’t kick their son out of their home before their deaths. They did say, though, that Nick’s mental health was low and claimed prescription drugs “messed with his head”.

He is currently being held without bail in jail and is a suicide watcher. His arrest has been postponed until January.

The Los Angeles County medical examiners have determined that Rob and Michele’s deaths were homicides. Multiple sharp-force wounds claimed the lives of Rob and Michele. The only cause of death that has been listed in their reports is unknown.

Police arrived at Rob and Michele’s $ 13 million Brentwood mansion shortly after their deaths to have a brief conversation. Both were discovered in the lavish residence’s master bedroom, according to Dominique Choi. No one else was found, he claimed, despite the fact that officers thoroughly searched the residence to see if there were any additional victims or suspects.

The Los Angeles Fire Department was the first emergency service to arrive on the scene. A roommate of Michele and Rob’s daughter, Romy, made the first call at 3:30pm. Emergency services were initially dispatched using a Code two scenario, which entails the absence of sirens and flashing lights.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman made the revelation that Nick had been charged on Tuesday. Nick is currently facing a maximum life sentence without the possibility of being released from prison as a result of the charges. Prosecutors seeking the death penalty were denied by Hochman.

He stated at the time of the conference, “I’m here to let you know that our office will be prosecuting Nick Reiner for the murder of his parents.” There will be two first-degree murder counts with a unique case of multiple murders. Additionally, he is accused of using a deadly knife, which is a particularly serious charge.

These offenses can result in a maximum life sentence. There is currently no decision regarding the death penalty.

Nick Reiner is being held without bail, the statement read. These are just charges, I’d like to let you know. Charges are not proof. In a court of law, evidence will be presented.

Nick made his first court appearance on Wednesday. Before deciding whether to seek the death penalty, officers say they will speak with the family.

The Crown’s Lesley Manville takes swipe at ex husband Gary Oldman after 30 years

The couple got married in 1987, but Gary and she broke up shortly after meeting a much younger actress. The Crown actress couldn’t resist making a little dig at her famous ex despite more than three decades since their divorce.

Lesley Manville made an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to criticize her ex-husband, Gary Oldman.

The Crown actress, who is currently performing in a 2, 500-year-old Greek tragedy called Oedipus, was on a US chat show to promote her most recent lead role.

Colbert asked the 69-year-old for her advice during the interview about showing her a photo of her teenage self taken when she first appeared in Emmerdale in 1975.

Don’t marry an actor, Manville retorted in response! Colbert and the studio audience both laughed at the comment.

The comment, “Don’t marry an actor! ,” was shared on X, formerly Twitter. To whom do you know her (not so) subtle shade?

She was married to Joe Dixon, a 60-year-old actor, and Gary Oldman, a 67-year-old Hollywood actor, for the first time. However, the most well-known affair between her and Gary was her brief one.

The pair first met in 1984, got married three years later, and had Alfie as their son in 1988. However, Gary left to pursue a relationship with Uma Thurman, who was only 18 at the time, just three months after his birth.

Lesley has described her devastated at the time when the pair managed to stay friends despite this. She told host Lauren Laverne, “We were having the most amazing time together, and we loved each other,” while appearing on Desert Island Discs. We were married. On my honeymoon, I became pregnant. The rug was severely pulled from under my feet as we were having the most fun.

Lesley went on to explain that she was initially concerned about telling her family that Gary had left, adding that it was simpler to pretend otherwise because of his work.

I simply said, “Oh well, I won’t tell them because it might all work out in a few months.” However, it was incredibly lonely at the time.

After meeting on the set of the State of Grace movie set, Gary and Uma briefly wed in 1990 and 1992. According to a letter from Uma, the Oscar-winner claimed he was unable to live with him and that he had dumped him. In an interview later, she later said, “It takes a special kind of woman to put up with him.”

The Mummy Returns actor Joe Dixon and Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris actor Lesley wed in 2000. Although her second marriage ended in divorce in 2004, the split attracted much less media attention than her second.
