One of Married At First Sight UK’s first gay stars has revealed his injuries from a mugged trip to Mexico.

Daniel McKee, who was partnered with Matt Jameson on the hit E4 show in 2021, was brutally attacked, leaving him with a collapsed lung. He forced to fly home to Northern Ireland for Christmas following the harrowing incident.

The 30-year-old took to social media to share images of the impact of the robbery attempt. He explained what transpired during his travels in south America along with a photo of himself holding a cup of tea while shirt-free.

“I got mugged in Mexico,” he said on Instagram. “They didn’t manage to take anything because I fought back… which in hindsight you should NEVER EVER do as I got hurt… they did however redirect my winter travels for a few weeks which I’m not mad about.

She addressed the thug’s effects in more detail in the following upload. He continued, “I have a wee tear in my lung, a small pneumothorax (collapsed lung), and some very sore ribs. Daniel continued to go on to explain how it hurts “so bad” when he laughed before saying, “But I am grand. Merry Christmas

Dan and Matt split after a two years together in December 2022 after becoming the show’s first-ever gay. Speaking to The Mirror, Matt revealed he and Dan have been unable to savage a friendship from their relationship.

We wanted to be friends, they said. However, he continued, “You must have that separation with any relationship, and especially for me to move forward.

We haven’t spoken in a while, so it’s been very difficult because I was heartbroken after the breakup, because I loved him and wanted him to be my forever, but he wasn’t, so I needed that break, and because we haven’t spoken in a while. We could talk and maybe form a friendship in the future, but it hasn’t been something I’ve been able to do.

He said, “Our relationship was so strong; we met at the altar, we spent eight to twelve weeks filming together, and then we spent time in Leeds and Northern Ireland.

“During those two years, there were a few days or weeks when we weren’t together.” It was a fast-track relationship because it was so intense.

We were together for two years, but it probably would have spanned four or five years if it had been a regular relationship. It’s a real adjustment because that intensity and then the stop before you decide to leave are real.

He continued, “I moved to Northern Ireland, we were living together there, and then I had to make that enormous adjustment again and move back to Leeds, which was really difficult,” he said, speaking in 2023.

Another beauty product that Molly-Mae had credited with “changing the clarity” of her skin has been shared by fans.

In a recent YouTube vlog, Molly let fans in on her current nighttime routine and praised a viral K-Beauty buy.

The Medicube Zero Pore Pad Mild, which retails for £24 for 70 pads, is the product Molly claims has seen a measurable improvement in her skin after using them for the past two weeks.

They are ideal for everyday use because they are dual-sided toner pads that gently exfoliate while maintaining skin hydration and calm.

The pads are infused with madecassoside, a mild exfoliating acid that helps remove dead skin cells without irritating the skin, and panthenol to hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier, and PHA, a mild exfoliating acid that helps remove dead skin cells without irritating the skin.

The soft side helps to add moisture and prepare skin for the rest of your routine, while the other side gently smooths and refines texture.

The “mild” formula, which is ideal for sensitive skin types, concentrates on immediate results without harshness and steers clear of the fragrance of the original formula.

They regularly help the skin appear clearer, more even, and refreshed, and lessen the appearance of pores. If you want that effortless, glass skin look that K-Beauty is known for, it’s obvious why Molly-Mae calls them a game-changer.

Olivia Attwood and Frankie Bridge, two of whom praised AESTURA’s Atobarrier 265 Cream as a “sensitive skin lifesaver,” are fans of the product.

This barrier cream might be just what your skin needs if it has been feeling dry, sensitive, and in need of some TLC. The moisturising formula promises 120 hours of hydration for the skin, which is supported by millions of people in Korea and has one selling every 20 seconds.

Spencer Matthews’ wife, Vogue Williams, was left speechless after leaving her dearly beloved Irish family home, according to a report from Spencer Matthews.

The Irish TV personality, who was raised north of Dublin, has previously spoken about how deeply emotional she feels about her “forever home” in Howth, calling it home and where she wants her three children to continue to stay connected to their Irish roots.

The most unexpected way for Vogue and Spencer to begin their romance. Spencer and she first met while filming Channel 4’s winter sports program The Jump in Austria in 2017, according to The Times.

He said, “I hadn’t skied since I was very young when I won the TV show The Jump in Tyrol in Austria in 2017.” I had good balance because I’ve snowboarded for years. I met Vogue there, and we soon became friends, becoming quickly romantically involved.

Even though Vogue maintains she “didn’t fancy him at first,” things developed rapidly between them, with the pair tying the knot just twelve months later. “We had a small wedding in 2018 at my parents’ home in Glen Affric in the Scottish Highlands,” Spencer recalled, highlighting the secluded and stunning location that also means a great deal to him personally, reports the Irish Mirror.

Theodore, Gigi, and Otto are the three children the duo have since adopted, and they now balance family life between London and Ireland. The former I’m A Celeb contestant made a significant emotional and financial commitment to purchasing a home in Howth, a picturesque coastal village close to Dublin, in 2020.

Vogue purchased a home in Howth, an amazing Irish seaside port close to Dublin, in 2020, Spencer explained. She cries and obsesses the flight’s landing gear. The new year is being welcomed there.

The property, which is said to be worth $2.8 million, was expertly renovated by Geri O’Toole, the company’s interior designer. The family can truly unwind from their hectic lives by calling the house “her forever home,” according to Vogue.

Vogue, who is from Portmarnock, has made a powerful point about how important it is for her children to maintain ties to Ireland. She recently revealed that they have already begun forming local friendships, saying, “I want our kids to know about it and their Irish roots as well.” Our forever home in Howth is our private retreat. The kids are so adorable and are enjoying having their own friends.

The family now dedicates considerable portions of the year to Ireland, including three weeks every summer, around 10 days at Christmas, plus mid-term breaks and Easter. Vogue previously told The Times: “We want to spend more and more time over here. I love it and the kids love it too.”

Vogue and Spencer have also made it known that they have relocated to what they have called their “forever” family home in London from where they left their £4.25 million Battersea apartment.

The pair initially put their upscale London home on the market two years ago, but they eventually reduced the asking price by over £1 million before the sale was finalized.

In a recent instalment of her YouTube vlog, Vogue confirmed that the Battersea flat—the first property she and Spencer lived in together—has now been sold, and disclosed that they snapped up their permanent family house in London earlier this year, wrapping up the purchase in June.

Former Nickelodeon child star Tylor Chase has left fans deeply worried after viral footage emerged on TikTok showing him living rough on the streets of Riverside, California.

In the distressing clip shared on social media, Chase, who played Martin Qwerly in Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide, appeared clearly upset.

The video, which has racked up thousands of views, prompted a wave of shock from those who grew up watching the hit Nickelodeon series. Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide aired between 2004 and 2007 and was created by Scott Fellows.

With the addition of Lindsey Shaw, Daniel Curtis Lee, and Devon Werkheiser, the show followed three middle school students through everyday difficulties.

Concerned social media users shared their condolences in the comments section. Many people sparked discussions about the devastating effects of early stardom, particularly when combined with addiction and mental health issues.

One viewer wrote, “This made me feel so depressed.” Another shocked fan expressed his shock by stating, “Really sad, he was trying to leave the camera.” I’m hoping he can resurrect his momentum.

According to a third person, “Children’s fame destroys everything, and 90% of these kids end up being addicts (just famous ones)”. The Hollywood industry is ailing, according to a fourth chime in. Someone else wrote, “Society failed him, his parents failed him.” To see, sad.

Many fans are still hopeful that the video will inspire others to help him, but some criticize whether or not the viral video was actually shot. You were aware of who he was. One viewer pleaded with God to keep him safe and watch over him.

Another added, “You don’t need to ask him stupid questions while you’re in front of a camera.” You were aware of who he was.

A third expressed similar sentiments, asking, “Why record him in such a way? ” He appeared uneasy. Off-camera, this could have all happened. A GoFundMe page was created to aid Chase after the video went viral, which quickly raised more than $1,200 (approximately £893).

His mother, who explained that her son has bipolar disorder and has ongoing financial issues, later shut down the fundraiser.

In a 2007 episode of the popular sitcom Everybody Hates Chris, Taylor reprised his role in an unnamed character after spending time on Ned’s Declassified.

In the same year, he played a younger Adam in James Franco’s action film Good Time Max. Before making his final on-screen appearance in L. A. Noire, Tyler left the show for a while.

Nikita Kuzmin has revealed his next move after this year’s Strictly Come Dancing came to an emotional end on Saturday. The professional dancer, 27, competed in the 2025 series alongside Amber Davies, who replaced his original partner Dani Dyer when she left the show.

However, despite entering the final minute, Amber and Nikita stunned the judges with unwavering chemistry and a dance floor presence. Karen Carney and her partner Carlos Gu defeated the pair to reach the final.

Nikita will be performing his very own high-octane dance show in 2026 in addition to the Strictly Live tour. This year will be busy. With a whopping 35 venues booked and multiple dates spread out across the UK over the summer, Burn the Floor: Supernova will debut.

Jason Gilkison, a BAFTA award-winner, will create the show. Fans of Nikita will be able to witness the charismatic dancer combining ballroom, Latin, and contemporary dances, while the professional dancer will bring new life to traditional Americanas like Foxtrot and Viennese Waltz.

Burn the Floor is Gilkison’s ballroom-based dance company, and it’s performed worldwide, thrilling audiences in Broadway in New York City and the West End in London since 1999. The company is credited with reinventing the ballroom dance form, to make way for the likes of Strictly. Tickets for Nikita’s tour are available here.

Because his sister is also a talented performer, Nikita’s talent for dancing must be in the Kuzmin’s blood. Since 2012, Anastasia Kuzmina has been a professional dancer on Ballando con le Stelle, the Italian version of Dancing with the Stars.

Originally from Ukraine, the siblings moved to Italy when Nikita was nine, with both of them getting involved in the country’s dance scene. Anastasia has also moved into musical theatre, having appeared in the Italian production of Neverland in 2024.

However, Nikita revealed that Anastasia’s sister has a successful reality TV career as well, which is not her only foray into fame. She won the Italian Race Across the World competition, which she took part in.

Proud brother Nikita shared about her experience on Instagram, crediting her with inspiring him. He wrote: “Little fact. My sister @anastasia__kuzmina has done the Italian version of @raceacrosstheworld about 12 years ago (and Won It).

Seeing her travel through India inspired me to travel there ten years later, which is still my favorite solo trip ever.

Fans were also made to believe Nikita and Amber had more in common after he was caught kissing her on the head after rehearsals. Although the two parties are in relationships, there are concerns that the infamous “cure” may be about to break out once more.

The observer remarked to the Sun, “The pair seemed very at ease in each other’s company. He seemed to be able to tenderly kiss her head and hold her delicately.

They added: “The couple are described as being locked in their own little world at times and the chemistry between them has raised eyebrows amongst their Strictly colleagues,” and also noted that there is an ‘undeniable spark’ between the Love Island winner and her partner.
