Vernon Kay has confessed he was ridiculed over a “horrendous” fashion blunder when he turned up at Strictly Come Dancing to support his wife, Tess Daly. The presenter, who has two daughters, Phoebe and Amber, with Tess, revealed details about a shopping expedition he enjoyed with youngest daughter, Amber, in Central London during his time off last week.
During a recent episode of his BBC Radio 2 programme (October 27), Vernon explained how he’d decided to seize the chance to purchase some fresh jeans – a choice that would result in “massive guffawing” at his expense.
Following a suggestion he attributed to Amber, who’s “down with the kids”, he said she recommended he buy some baggy jeans. So Vernon, heeding her guidance, tried some on, decided he fancied them, and eventually purchased a pair.
Vernon’s humorous description of the trousers made the comparison to an “80s pair of women’s culottes,” but he said he liked them anyway and that they are “very airy.”
He said, “I like them, so you can imagine with my legs sticking out from the end of a big napkin.” I then attended Strictly Come Dancing with Amber on Saturday afternoon.
And when I entered, I was met with a frenzied, massive guffawing; ‘What… What are you wearing, haha? Wow! And Amber says, “They’re really cool.” “
Then he responded, “No, they’re horrendous! I was disappointed, Vernon continued, “I was walking in there feeling very cool,” but I didn’t. I’m attempting to follow the kids. “
Later during the programme, Vernon disclosed Tess’ response to his bold sartorial decision. He confessed that upon her return from Strictly, Tess – who is departing the programme alongside Claudia Winkleman – instructed him to “get rid of them”.
However, he said he retorted his response with the resolute: “No;” in a comically high voice. They appeal to me! He jokingly admitted that if he had wore them right away, he would “end up in the south of France” and would “fly away like a “kite” because of the gloomy weather.
In related news, reports have surfaced that Vernon has expressed his support for Tess following her unexpected exit announcement last week, which will mark the culmination of an impressive 21-year tenure on Strictly.

Responding to Tess’ Instagram statement, her spouse shared a series of heart emojis and liked the post. He also turned to his own social platforms in reaction, sharing an article confirming the departure on his Instagram Story alongside a ‘Breaking News’ GIF.
Vernon subsequently posted an artist’s depiction of Tess and Claudia, featuring the message: “What a fantastic duo they have been.”
In a first-look clip from Disney+’s new two-part documentary Caroline Flack: Search for the Truth, Christine Flack’s mother has revealed her “big regret.”
Christine, Caroline Flack’s mother, expressed her deepest regret after the passing of her daughter. Caroline, 40, took her own life tragically, and her mother doesn’t want anyone else to experience the same nightmare.
In a first look clip from Disney+’s newest two-part documentary Caroline Flack: Search for the Truth, Christine addresses a memorial bench for Caroline along with her children.
Speaking of her daughter, Christine said: “I think Caroline would be pleased with what I’m doing. I wish I had done it then, before she took her own life, and that’s my biggest regret, that I wasn’t shouting like this, then. But now I have nothing to lose. The worst thing in the world happened with losing Carrie.”
Christine and Caroline’s children were pictured in the first look scene. She continued, “I come here, and you have different moods when you’re here, don’t you? ” I must have felt awful that day.
Another lonely year has passed, I just said. You missed me just as much as I did when you left today. I’m making every effort to explain to the world why some horrible people compelled you. I’ll keep fighting. I sincerely love you. “
Do you think there will ever be a moment when you can stop fighting, mother, Elizabeth asks Caroline’s older sister?
Then Christine said, “I hope I can stop. I’m hoping it will end. You can fight until the truth is revealed to you until the end of your life.
Elizabeth responded, “Your main concern is that you’re dealing with organizations that are so corrupt, they have so much money, legal experts, and can you ever truly find the truth in these organizations”…
“I only hope I can accomplish something.” And I’ll continue doing it as long as you all approve of it.
Christine previously spoke to The Mirror about her daughter’s legacy. She told us: “At the end, Carrie didn’t think there was anything to live for, she felt the world had turned against her. I hope people who read her story will see her life was wasted and may think twice about ending theirs. That’s how I want Carrie to be remembered, for inspiring people to live.
Caroline would speak to depressed people almost as though she knew what they were going through. Her compassion and kindness can continue to be used to help people through her bench and others.
She would be unbelievably proud, I am certain. A secure location where people could sit and reflect at any time of day or night was the goal. There are currently so many negative aspects to the world.
Continue reading the article.
She continued, “I think that’s often why people give up, because they don’t see any hope,” adding about Caroline’s memorial bench. Even if it’s just to sit for five minutes and reflect on things in a secure space, Caroline’s bench offers hope. And I am aware from speaking with members of the neighborhood that it is frequently used. The QR code needed to be replaced because it was out so quickly.

Norman Cook has recalled a “weird” experience he shared with ex-wife Zoe Ball in a hotel room. In a recent episode of Celebrity Traitors star Alan Carr’s travel-themed podcast, Life’s a Beach, Norman (who also goes by his DJ name Fatboy Slim) shared a strange detail that he and his former wife spotted in a hotel in Dubai.
The Praise You hitmaker was urged to dish the truth about “everything” by Alan after he asked about his “best hotel experience.” He claimed that this might include “butler service” or a “pillow menu,” which is reportedly a “pillow menu” in hotels.
Norman, whose 18-year relationship with Zoe came to an end in 2016, was then asked if he’d ever had such a “menu”. It prompted him to share a “weird” thing they found in a hotel.
He said: “No, I’ve had weird ones where me and Zoe stayed at a place in Dubai, and there was our wedding photo was in a frame by the bed.”
What did an unprepared Alan say in response? adding that it was actually “weird.”
Norman continued, “I believe they were trying to make us feel at home, so they kind of Googled our wedding photo, printed one, framed it, and embroidered my name on the pillow one time.” That really threw me, ” “
Elaborating further about this rather strange perk that he encountered during his hotel stay, Norman described how he opted to go downstairs to ask why his name had been immortalised in such a way.
Norman, who has two children Woody and Nelly with Zoe, claimed that he was informed that the staff believed he would “like it” and that, despite his pointing out how much “trouble” they had endured, they would “save it” for when he returned.
Meanwhile, Zoe, who first met Norman in Ibiza in 1998, recently opened up about the friendship she shares with him post-breakup on an episode of the Dig It podcast, which she hosts with Jo Whiley.
She explained how she didn’t want to follow the same path as her parents (who reportedly divorced in the 1970s).
Continue reading the article.
After their breakup, Zoe argued that they “have to do right by our kids,” and she remained in touch with Norman.
She said, “My parents divorced. I felt really bad about getting divorced because I believed what happened to me was what caused my children to lose.

Westlife’s Mark Feehily can be heard on their new tracks as they celebrate their 25th anniversary(Image: ITV)
Westlife will perform two massive concerts at the Royal Albert Hall this week to mark a significant anniversary.
The London gigs will mark 25 years of the band, coinciding with the release of four brand new songs and the launch of an upcoming world tour. While Shane Filan, Nicky Bryne and Kian Egan will be flying the flag for the Irish boyband, it’s been confirmed Mark Feehily will be unable to perform live with the group.
The 45-year-old has dealt with a number of health issues in recent years, which all started with a 2022 diagnosis of pneumonia. Fans of the vocal powerhouse will be thrilled to know that Mark will be a part of the celebrations in voice, even though he may not be making the trip.
Mark’s distinct vocals can be heard on new track Chariot, penned by songwriting maestro Ed Sheeran, as well as several tracks on the band’s new album.
Mark’s absence from the upcoming shows was made public in June as part of a lengthy conversation about their anniversary plans. Mark will not be able to join the celebrations, the band said in a statement. When he is ready and able, we hope he will be able to return to the stage. He continues to express his gratitude and love to you all.
The four of us are still in shock that 25 years have passed. You have consistently shown us us that we are still in love and loyal to them wherever we go. We are so blessed to have you all with us, and we look forward to sharing a happy birthday with you! Happy 25th Birthday to all of us! Love, Kian, Mark, Nicky, and Shane X.
Mark expresses his own opinion on the illness.
Just before his first ever tour of America, Mark announced a temporary break from Westlife last year.
Taking to Instagram at the time, he wrote: ‘Hello and much love to you all! It’s Mark here.. Most of you are aware that I have had some health challenges over the past while.
“I had surgery three years ago, and it actually all started.” I was rushed to A&, E within a few days of having this surgery because I was in severe pain.
‘I eventually ended that awful day in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) where I was informed that due to a complication with the surgery, I had developed severe ‘Sepsis’, a life-threatening infection that would require immediate emergency surgery to rectify the problem and basically save my life.’
I spent the next few months in the hospital, he continued. It occurred during a lockdown. I was prevented from visiting my fiance and my then-total 10-month-old daughter for months due to strict Covid restrictions.
It was physically and mentally very difficult, and the ICU stay was very painful.
I got sick in Newcastle in the middle of 2021 before a concert, and was later told I had pneumonia. I regret not seeing the rest of the concerts that December because I was told I had to return home right away to recover.
I received a recommendation from a doctor who advised me that I needed more surgery, which I completed in May 2022, making it impossible for me to see The Wild Dreams tour.
Three months after having that surgery, I made an effort to carry on for you guys and go back on tour, but it turned out to be too much due to the physical demands of the concerts and the long trips.
I had a “very large” incisional hernia, and I was told to have it fixed by a doctor. I had no other choice because this would be my fourth major operation since the beginning of everything.

He continued, “It is with the highest level of regret that I must now temporarily stand down from all Westlife touring until a time ote: that I have had the chance to fully recover from the turbulent journey I have been through as an individual.”
Believe me, you’re right, things could change! Thank you so much for your assistance and understanding of my health over the past few years.
What the band did in response
Bandmate Shane fans would be thrilled to hear Mark on their new songs, including Chariot, which were released on Friday despite the vocal powerhouse’s absence on the road.
Shane thanked Irish media for their update on Mark in an interview with RTE News, saying: “He’s unable to join the tour unfortunately as he’s mentioned already, but being on the new song is very important.

The masterminds behind Bondi Sands self-tanning, Melanie Adams and Victoria and David Beckham, will soon be rubbing shoulders with them, which Kylie Jenner adores.

David and Victoria Beckham’s new Cotswolds neighbours revealed as business owner loved by Kylie Jenner. Posh and Becks new neighbours bought the plot of land next to them for a staggering £16.5 million.
The celebrity couple have lived at their Cotswolds mansion near Chipping Norton since 2016, buying the pad for £6,150,000. Their countryside estate is close to Soho Farmhouse, an exclusive celebrity club which boasts visitors such as Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and Tom Cruise.
However, fresh land registry records now indicate that Blair Raymond James and his opulent wife Melanie Adams have sold a 15-acre parcel of land near the Beckhams’ own home for an eye-watering sum. Prior to moving to the UK in 1986, Blair, who was born in a small rural town close to Melbourne, co-founded and sold Bondi Sands, the world’s most popular self-tanner, for $ 450,000 (Aus) in 2023.
Celebrity clients who love the brand include Kylie, Olivia Attwood and Charlotte Crosby. His struggles saw him overcome being almost penniless, and he lost both parents by the age of 23. Despite this, he has become a self-made multi-millionaire and is now director of Growth Bomb, a ‘miracle’ hair company he created during the pandemic.
The business has already sold more than one million products in the first five years of establishment of the brand. Official documents confirm that the land acquisition agreement was reached on September 13th, 2024, to complete the Beckham’s acquisition and establish a relationship with the new neighbors.
No buildings on the land have been constructed as of yet, according to drone images taken last week, with no plans for the site at the present time. It’s just over 15 acres, including a walled garden that has fallen, but it’s right next to Chez Beckham, according to an insider.
Can you justify having such a neighbor? The Beckhams’ claim that the land was transferred from Great Tew Properties Ltd. to the Beckhams when they purchased their home in December 2016 is mentioned in the Land Registry’s deeds for Mr. James.
The transferor made restrictive covenants that have since been modified. Additionally, the recently purchased land, which is now owned by Mr. James and his wife, was sold to Imperium Trust Company in 2021, according to the deeds.
The barn conversion that the Beckhams’ own home underwent extensive renovations and is situated on two acres of land. A glasshouse, a sizable pond, an underground wine cellar, and an Astroturf football pitch are just a few of the amenities.
The 14,270 square foot property, which has been housed there since 1820, has nine bedrooms, four bathrooms, a movie theater, and even a gym. In one courtyard of the E-shaped house is a 12 x 7 meter pool, and in the other is a seating area covered in wood pergolas.
Great Tew Properties Limited made no comment on the transaction. Following the revelation that the Beckhams had a new planning dispute with neighbors over a proposed new access road to their property, rumors about their new neighbors have surfaced.
One neighbor has already voiced her objection, but their representatives insist that vehicles be avoided entering the nearby celebrity hotspot Soho Farmhouse. West Oxfordshire District Council will make a decision at a later time.
