Cat Deeley, the host of This Morning, stunned onlookers by removing her white bikini and sunbathing on a Miami beach. The newly single mother, who wed her 12-year-old husband in July 2025, spent her final days with celebrity hairstylist Ben Skervin on the beach.

The mum-of-two didn’t seem to have a care in the world as she took a dip in the ocean under the beaming Floridian sun. Another snap showed her enjoying an icy drink as she sunbathed next to her mate Ben, reading The Land of Sweet Forever by American author Harper Lee.

Cat’s pal Ben also shared an Instagram Stories post showing Cat getting stuck into her lines for This Morning on Monday, as she read through her notes on the plane. It comes after Cat, 49, who shares her sons Milo and James with ex Patrick Kielty, shared a post celebrating her “fun” year, following her first Christmas as a divorcee.

Sharing the year’s highlights, Cat confessed that despite her split from husband Patrick Kielty, she’s had ‘a lot of fun’. Cat kicked off the New Year with a post sharing some of her favourite moments of 2025, some of which included a few other famous faces.

In a joint statement, Cat and Patrick, 54, pledged to “continue to be united as loving parents” for their two sons, but they also announced the end of their 12-year marriage. Cat was unable to attend Patrick’s mother’s funeral, which took place in Northern Ireland in March, raising suspicions of a potential split.

Cat, who was just newly single as she entered 2026, appeared to be grateful for some of the positive experiences she has had over the past year. Her video showed her enjoying summer bike rides, girly nights out, and working on set with her This Morning co-host, Ben Shephard.

Cat and Ben were seen experimenting with red light therapy masks at one point, and Harry Judd and Danny Jones, who won I’m a Celebrity in 2024, were also present.

In another scene, she was enjoying a glass of rosé with her mother Janet while on vacation, basking in the warm ocean air. She also took the young men to a petting farm to see some piglets while celebrating her son James’ 7th birthday with a Minecraft craft cake.

As well as her children, she shared some experiences with her This Morning family, including Alison Hammond, on stage at the NTAs last summer and another of her with Modern Family star Jesse Tyler. She captioned the post: “A lot of fun, a big bunch of friends and a whole lot more to come in 2026! #happynewyears”.

Before moving back to the UK in 2020, Patrick and Cat previously resided together in the US. Cat recalled them moving after one of their children was ordered to take cover in a shopping mall after an incident in which they were speaking to the Sunday Times in 2024.

According to the outlet, there were rumors of a shooter in the area, but it turned out to be related to a suspicious package. In the interview, Cat claimed she found the experience to be “really frightening.”

They have grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and other relatives who they adore dearly, she said. It was like having a special time in history and never getting those memories back. We therefore had always believed that we would bring them back to make sure everyone in the family and friends knew us.

They broke up in 2024, and their joint statement read, “We have made the decision to end our marriage. We are now separated.” No other party is involved, at all.

We will continue to be loving parents to our children, so kindly ask that you respect our family’s privacy. No further comments will be made.

Madonna brought in the New Year surrounded by loved ones, with the family enjoying a raucous night out in Marrakech to celebrate the start of 2026.

The iconic singer, 67, glowed as she was joined by her soccer star boyfriend Akeem Morris, 29, as well as four of her six kids – Rocco, 25, Mercy, 19, and twins Stella and Estere, 13. She adopted her youngest two in 2017, when they were four years old, from an orphanage in Malawi.

Lourdes, Madonna’s eldest daughter, and her ex-boyfriend Carlos Leon, were not present for the celebrations. Even her 20-year-old son David, who was adopted while she was living with her ex-boyfriend Guy Ritchie, did not.

The family could be seen partying into the night after sitting down for an incredible feast, with live music and sparklers. After their meal, they headed out into the desert to watch a traditional horsemen show. Madonna, who regularly visits Morocco, having spent her 60th birthday there, shared photos of her opulent evening on Instagram.

Madonna wrote: “Habibi, Come Alive… it’s 2026”. She shared images of the entire family sipping a beverage at once. The star looked as young as ever as she held hands with her boyfriend, who is the same age as her oldest daughter, in another post as she wandered the Marrakech souks.

For the first time in 17 years, Madonna and her ex-boyfriend, Guy Ritchie’s son, Rocco, 25, have reconnected for the first time in 17 years. As the former couple celebrated his Talk Is Cheap exhibition at a studio warehouse in Soho, they were seated either side of their son.

Nearly ten years after their famously content custody battle over him, Rocco stood between his mother and his father as they posed for a photo. He continued, “I don’t blame them, it’s obvious why some people might judge me.”

However, having both of my parents present in one room and supporting me, makes me proud of who I am. The show’s title, “Talk Is Cheap,” is because the work should speak for itself.

From 2000 to 2008, Madonna and TV and film director Guy were married, but their relationship has since become infamously turbulent. They were seen chatting amicably at the art event, but it seems they have decided to put the hatchet in their budding artist son’s hand.

They both arrived with their respective partners, Madonna, 67, and toyboy Akeem Morris, 29, who donned vintage Versace clothing and wore her signature platinum blonde hair and oversized sunglasses. Guy, 55, and his model wife Jacqui, 42, who he married in 2015, attended the Gentleman director’s wedding.

It was revealed back in March 2016 that Madonna had given up custody of Rocco, then 15 – with reports at the time suggesting she had admitted that her son preferred to live with his dad. The bitter custody battle started the December before, when teenager Rocco, who had been with his mother on her world tour, decided to fly home to the UK to be with his dad.

Rocco then ignored the his mother’s pleas – as well as an order from a New York court – to return to her home in the States for Christmas, instead choosing to stay in Britain with Ritchie. New York State Supreme Court Justice Deborah Kaplan said at the time: “No-one is disrupting his household other than the inability of the parents to reach a resolution.

The court will eventually decide this dispute if they can’t resolve it. The dispute was stressing him out, according to Rocco’s court-appointed attorney, Ellen Sigal. She stated in court, “It’s been a very difficult time for him.” We “hope to put an end to this as soon as possible,” he said, “without bringing him up to any litigation, press innuendo, or anything else.”

A 46-year-old Broadway performer who appeared in Wicked, The Little Mermaid, and Beauty and the Beast has sadly passed away from a rare form of cancer.

Bret Hanna-Shuford, who co-founded the social media site Broadway Husbands with his real-life husband, Stephen Hanna, died on January 3. He was a star of the 2013 Martin Scorsese film The Wolf of Wall Street.

His ballet dancer husband Stephen, who Bret shares three-year-old son Maverick with, confirmed the sad news on Instagram saying: “It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that early this morning we said goodbye to the most amazing man, husband and Papa in the universe. Bret Hanna-Shuford left this world peacefully with love surrounded by his family. Our hearts are broken but we will continue to make him proud of us…”

Last summer, the singer and actor was given a protracted form of cancer. One of the most fatal forms of blood cancer is the T-Cell Lymphoma, which is a rare form of the disease. Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis, a rare condition that attacks the body’s immune system, was discovered at the same time.

He spent the last few months in and out of hospital. On Christmas Day Bret and Stephen shared a photo wearing matching bobble hats. Bret looked frail with a feeding tube through his nose, but they appeared optimistic.

Merry Christmas to all of you, the post read. We appreciate your kindness and assistance greatly. Looking forward to the beginning of the year and seeing everyone soon. “Sending love” Sadly, Bret lost battle with the illness a few days later.

After hearing the news, friends, fans, and former coworkers quickly expressed their support in the comments. “Oh Stephen, that’s a word. I apologize so much. My memories of Bret and my sweet time will forever be in my Mermaid memories. I want to send you and your family all love.

Another expressed gratitude for the work he did and the joy he brought to our stages. He will be greatly missed. Another third person expressed surprise at Stephen’s love and isolation. When you need Maverick, this community will surround you. This is so wrong, I’m so sorry.

We are so devastated, a fourth user wrote. shocked . heavy, heavy hearts We’re just trying to send you the ugliest of love, warmth, and light. Today, we reflect on Bret and his incredible spirit, kindness, and generosity.

While a fifth person wrote, “Oh my heart just broke into a million pieces.” You will miss you so much here on earth, Bret. Stephen, I’m praying for you and your sweet son. I’m so sorry for your loss.

A GoFundMe page was launched last August to help pay for Bret’s medical bills as he was forced to step away from work to have treatment. The page said: “Your donation – no matter the size – will help cover medical bills, household expenses, and the many unexpected costs that come with fighting such a rare illness. Just as importantly, your kindness will give this family the chance to focus on what truly matters: Bret’s healing and Maverick’s bright, joy-filled childhood.” It raised $315,000.

In his most recent social media post from December 17, Bret thanked supporters for their “sweet messages” and claimed doctors had been developing “different and better treatment.” He continued, “It’s a very expensive medicine that insurance has made it difficult for us to get.” And we’re having trouble obtaining second medication approval. And the difficulty of insurance is frustrating.

If you can, please support our posts, because that will be very helpful. Or if you would like to donate to GoFundMe, share our posts, or leave a comment. It really helps. It’s been a really, really, really difficult time. I’m happy to let you know how much I appreciate you and how you have supported me during this difficult time.

Two Love Island stars have revealed they are engaged after months of speculation.

Sheep farmer Will Young, 26, and Australian Jessie Wynter, 29, will tie the knot soon after Will got down on one knee before Christmas in a secret proposal on December 9. Taking to Instagram, Will revealed the happy news and said: “The love of my life said yes. 09.12.25.”

Sharing snaps from his very impressive proposal – not to mention his gorgeous choice of huge diamond ring – Will revealed he had planning to pop the question to Jessie – who he met on the 2023 series of Love Island – for over a year.

He said, “I asked Jessie to marry me on December 9th. We’ve been celebrating just like we’ve always wanted to with no outside noise except for for Jessie’s family and ourselves.

Will continued: “We wanted to soak up this moment together and be fully present before sharing it with the world. We still feel like we’re living in a dream. I can’t believe we’re engaged. My heart has never felt so full of love.”

He acknowledged that keeping the proposal, which appeared to have taken place on top of a cliff and was surrounded by white flowers and candles, was “not easy” at the time.

He sweetly remarked, “Jessie deserves the world, and I can’t wait to give it to her.” I’ve been the happiest boy in the world since we first met on Love Island three years ago. I was already certain that Jessie would make the perfect wedding day, so I just knew it had to be perfect.

Will revealed where the proposal was to take place on Jessie’s native island and how much they asked for her to marry. I looked everywhere for the ideal location.

She says, “I am aware of her love for the ocean and the mountains, and she cherishes her home.” Jessie always takes me to her favorite views when we visit Tasmania, and she just sits there and admires how stunning it is. So when I came across this location, I knew it was it.

Will gushed, “We are so incredibly happy,” out of disbelief. Jessie, I have a heart of gold in you and commit to loving you forever. Here’s to forever making you the happiest woman on earth. And thank you for making me the happiest person alive.

The post also contained a Jessie comment, “The most perfect day.” I’m so in love with you.

Their Love Island co-stars also emailed them right away, expressing their congratulations by saying, “OMG guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations! The moment that everyone has waited for.

Lucy Burrows commented: “FINALLLLYYYYYY OMg CONGRATULATIONS YOU BEAUTIFUL PAIR !!” Sam Kenny wrote: “Ahhhhh!!!!!!! So happy for youse!!!!.” While Tom Clare wrote: “Huge congratulations guys!! Buzzing for you two.”

Brooke Warne, Shayne Warne’s daughter, said, “Every time I see a cute picture of you two, I was hoping for this specific news and oh my gosh it’s happened!!!” “YES, YES, CONGRATULATIONS.”

While former Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison posted: “OMG!!!!! Congratulations you two this is so lovely!!!!!”

Junior Andre, whose parents are Peter Andre and Katie Price, has grown up firmly in the spotlight – and as he could be ready to follow in their footsteps by taking part in I’m A Celebrity

View 5 Images

Growing up firmly in the spotlight, Junior Andre is used to having eyes on him. But it might not be too long until he reaches a whole new audience – if he ends up where he hopes to – in the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

As the chatty 20-year-old tells us in an exclusive interview,he’s keen to follow in the footsteps of his dad, singerand actor Peter Andre, and mum Katie Price – who both famously fell in love in camp back in 2004. Katie, who was then known as glamour model Jordan, and Peter married the following year but divorced in 2009.

Now Junior is keen for his sister, Princess, 18, to take part in the show with him, and says that if the call ever came, not even the idea of chowing down on animal’s unmentionables would put him off.

Asked about heading Down Under one day, Junior says, “It’s such a great show. They were actually a really good bunch to watch this year. Often there’s a bit of beef, a few arguments when they get hungry, but there was none of that this time. There were some great campmates. Angry Ginge totally smashed it. It was a proper series.”

He adds, “Obviously, me and my sister come from the jungle! It’s mad, we’re the only kids that have actually come from I’m A Celebrity. Would we do it? I think so, yeah, it’s just in our blood that we would have to do it, if we were asked. We could do it together!”

Junior believes it was “written in the stars” for the siblings to roll up their sleeves and get stuck into jungle life at some point in the future – but he has his reservations.

“Don’t get me wrong, there are tasks that would scare the life out of me. I am going to try my best to not tell anyone my deepest darkest fears, just in case I do get the chance one day! But some of the stuff they have to do is just ridiculous.

“I don’t know how they do it!“I would not make it look that easy. I’m not even being dramatic, but I would actually be sick after some of those challenges. I don’t know how long I would last but it would be such a great experience.”

Junior is clearly not at all fazed by being in the spotlight, as he prepares to go front and centre presenting the 2026 UK Top Influencer Awards in May of this year. He’s signed up to host alongside his influencer girlfriend Jasmine Orr in their first joint gig. The star-studded event has been billed as the country’s biggest celebration of social media stars and digital talent.

But taking the reins at the black-tie bash in Newcastle with his other half – who has appeared on Celebs Go Dating – is water off a duck’s back for Junior, it would seem.

“It’s the first time I’ve done something like this and it’ll be good for me to do, it’s more experience and presenting is something that I enjoy,” he explains enthusiastically. “Having that experience of crowds at my gigs should help – it’s going to be fantastic. Presenting is a very different thing to performing – it’s more formal. Performing, you can dance, sing and move around.

“Presenting there’s less movement, it’s more serious but you’re still having a laugh.I think I’ll make it enjoyable and hopefully people will have a really good time on the night. I’ve seen my dad do it, so I kind of know what to expect. I’m excited.”

Life is moving quickly for Junior, and things are in such a great place with Jasmine, he admits, that they spent all of Christmas together. Junior is loving her bond with his mum Katie, and says they get on so well that they’re now even enjoying pamper sessions together.

“I’ve never been in a proper, serious relationship, and not one where we’ve spent Christmas Day together so that is special.“I’m also finding out what growing up is all about! The bills, the living costs, running a car, how much you spend on presents! With so many siblings, I always get everyone something,” he adds, laughing.

“They all get on so well with Jas. It’s obviously very helpful when your parents really like your partner, it helps so much.Jas gets on so well with my mum – they’ve been doing all the girly stuff together, getting their hair and nails done, it’s great. Princess loves her too.”

Junior clearly adores his family – do he and Jasmine ever talk about beginning a family of their own one day? You know, I’m in love. I am riding a wave of love,” smiles Junior.“I’m not putting any pressure on myself, there’s none needed, really. That’s the way I see it.

“As long as I’m in love, I’m in love, and that’s how it is. Who knows what the future holds? But I’m just rolling with it and enjoying being in such a great relationship.”

At just 20, Junior in no hurry to have a baby, but what about his famous dad Peter? The father-of-five, 52, has previously said they’re not ruling out baby number six – but it looks like that may have changed.

“I don’t know what he’s got left in his, erm, locker!” he giggles. “You know what I mean! After Arabella, I think that’s enough. He’s such a great dad and loves it, but he’s satisfied now. I think he has actually now clarified that’s it. Plus, I can’t buy anymore Christmas presents for anyone, enough’s enough!

“I’m here, 20 years of age, paying bills and all of this. I am living like I’m a 35-year-old man! I wish they taught me all this at school, budgeting and bills, all of it. It’s tough.”

Junior has been busy with his sister Princess filming the second series of The Princess Diaries. She never imagined it would gain a staggering 93 million streams but her brother knew it would be big – and says he’s “even more involved” in the upcoming season.

As for the year ahead, amid rumours that Junior has been approached by BBC bosses for his own reality show, he says, “I think naturally, as I get older, I’m going to want to do different things and be my own person. Hopefully, new opportunities will come forward for me to carve out my own career for myself.

“It’s the same with Princess. We’re currently filming season two and you’re going to get even more of an insight into our lives. You get to see a bit more of me, too! Not all brothers and sisters get on so well and we’re just pleased that the first series got such good feedback.”

Does Junior think they will do a joint project one day? “Well, she’s got things going on and I’ve got things going on. She and I are always going to be a big part of each other’s lives, because we’re travelling siblings.

.“We’re always going to be there to support each other. If I have my own thing going on, she’s just naturally going to be involved in some way, and vice versa.“I think it’s great because we’ve grown up together. We’re now pursuing our own paths – but we’re still so close.”

The UK Top Influencer Awards take place at The Assembly Rooms in Newcastle on Sunday 3 May 2026, hosted by Junior Andre and Jasmine Orr

After the Little Mix star revealed their daughters had been diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy, Jesy Nelson’s partner Zion Foster has shared a new photo of them.

After receiving the devastating health news that Ocean Jade, her eight-month twins, were receiving, the singer claimed she had undergone “the most gruelling three or four months.” Progressive muscle weakness and wasting are a result of motor neuron loss in the genetic neuromuscular disease. Jessica, 34, expressed her sadness by stating that the condition “affects every muscle in the body, including the legs, arms, breathing, and swallowing,” adding that “essentially what it does over time is it kills the muscles in the body.”

Her partner Zion, who made the proposal in September, has since shared his own hopeful message.

The girls’ father showed a brand-new photo of them, claiming that they were “smiling through the challenges.”

He continued, “Daddy loves you so much.”

After three and four months of trying things out, Jesy revealed to the fans that the girls have now been diagnosed with SMA Type 1, a severe muscular condition.

There is no known cure for SMA, according to Jesy, who described the twins’ treatment plan from Great Ormond Street Hospital in London as “a very quick process because time is of of essence with this disease.”

She referred to the girls as receiving “urgent care,” which I am so appreciative of because they would not survive without it.

I feel like I have to become a nurse because I have to put them on breathing machines and do things that no mothers should have to do with their children because there have been endless hospital appointments.

The most heartbreaking time of my life has been spent with Jesy, she said. My entire life has done a 180, in my opinion. I almost feel as though I’m grieving for my children’s lives.

“I firmly believe that my girls will overcome any obstacles with the right assistance and carry out impossible tasks.”

The singer documented complications on social media, including twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), which she had during her pregnancy.

The NHS says that TTTS can have “grave consequences” for 10 to 15% of identical twins who share a placenta.

Before giving birth to the twins prematurely at 31 weeks on May 15, Jesy underwent the emergency procedure and spent 10 weeks in the hospital.
