With winter in full swing, many families may find it helpful to use a dehumidifier to avoid mould from growing in their homes

Aldi has introduced a new range of ‘winter warmer’ SpecialBuy products designed to help shoppers stay comfortable at home throughout the winter. Among the new items is an electronic dehumidifier that can help dry clothes faster, reduce mould, and improve air quality by absorbing moisture.
Last week, the UK experienced a bitterly cold spell of weather, with the Met Office issuing multiple snow and ice warnings. This week, conditions are forecast to be much milder, but also wet and wintry as unsettled low pressure moves in from the Atlantic.
During such times, many households across the country will turn up their central heating and attempt to dry clothes indoors on radiators or heated airers to avoid costly energy bills. However, doing so can increase the amount of moisture in the air, often resulting in condensation and mould at home.
Dehumidifiers help improve the air quality by removing excessive moisture. This prevents mould, mildew, and dust mites from growing, which are all detrimental to allergies and can make it difficult to breathe.
While there are many different kinds of dehumidifiers available on the market, Aldi has released one as part of its latest SpecialBuy middle aisle lineup. Its Midi Dehumidifier costs £89.99 and is available to buy in stores now.
The 200W household gadget comes with a two-litre tank, and it can remove up to twelve litres of water a day, helping to manage moisture at home during the colder months. It also features wheels, allowing for convenient movement from room to room.
Other features include a ‘simple’ touch-screen, a ‘quiet’ mode, child lock, overflow protection and auto-shut off when the water tank is full. It can help dry laundry faster if put near them for anyone keen to reduce energy bills by not using their tumble dryer. The dehumidifier will only be around while stocks last. As with any SpecialBuy, once it’s gone, it’s gone.
An Aldi spokesperson said: “For speedy drying and to manage moisture in the air during colder months, shoppers can choose the Midi Dehumidifier (£89.99). Designed to help manage moisture at home during the colder months, it can remove up to 12 litres of water a day and has a 2L tank, adjustable humidity settings, a 24-hour timer and a quiet operating mode for use around the house.
“The unit also comes with wheels for easy movement, a simple touch-screen display and a drainage hose for continuous use, making it a useful addition for keeping spaces comfortable and helping clothes dry more quickly.”
According to the UK consumer organisation, Which?, dehumidifiers draw excess moisture from the air, helping to combat condensation, prevent mould growth and reduce damp on walls. There are two main types to choose from: refrigerant or desiccant.

The group explains: “Refrigerant dehumidifiers work by creating a cold surface; when warm, damp air comes into contact with it, water condenses and drips into the water tank. They typically struggle in colder spaces, such as cellars.

Coronation Street favourite Lucy Fallon had her co-stars rallying round after sharing an emotional update with fiancé Ryan Ledson.
The actress shot to fame when she joined the ITV soap in 2015 as Bethany Platt, daughter of Sarah (Tina O’Brien). And it’s fair to say Bethany has been involved in several big storylines.
From a bullying ordeal to having botched surgery abroad, her time in Weatherfield has not been short of drama. Recently, she made her cobbles comeback, after initially leaving the street for a job in London.
Away from the soap though, Lucy is smitten with footballer Ryan Ledson. The couple made their relationship public in June 2021 after reportedly meeting on celeb dating app Raya.
Going from strength to strength, they later welcomed their son Sonny into the world in February 2023. Their second child, a baby girl named Nancy, arrived in January.
Fast forward to November last year and Ryan popped the question during Lucy’s 30th birthday celebrations. Lucy confirmed the news on Instagram, sharing a series of photos showcasing her sparkling engagement ring.
But recently, Lucy had fans rallying round after she took to her Instagram and shared a heartwarming family update. On Sunday (January 11) the soap star uploaded photos from daughter Nancy’s first birthday.

In one snap, Lucy and Ryan could be seen posing with their adorable daughter while other photos showed a delicious cake as well as Nancy playing with a balloon. Lucy captioned the post: “A perfect birthday for a perfect gworl.”
Lucy also shared another Instagram post paying tribute to Nancy on her birthday. Alongside professional photos of the tot, Lucy wrote: “1 today. Happy 1st birthday to the girl we dreamed of. You are pure magic my girl. We all love you so much. Happy birthday.”

Her soap co-stars were left swooning over the post and rushed to the comments section. Lisa Swain actress Vicky Myers said: “Happy 1st Birthday, beautiful Nancy! Have a magical day, all of you xxx.”
Helen Flanagan, who played Rosie Webster, proclaimed: “Happy birthday beautiful Nancy your twin.” Daisy Midgeley star Charlotte Jordan also penned: “Nancyyyyy drewwww she looks just like her mama xxxx.”

The 2026 Golden Globes kicked off last night with an array of A-listers stepping onto the red carpet. Supporting her husband, George Clooney, for his film Jay Kelly, Amal Clooney wowed viewers in a gorgeous, draped red gown.
But it wasn’t just her outfit that had everyone talking; her luminous and flawless complexion quickly became one of the night’s biggest beauty moments.
Behind her polished makeup look was, of course, a selection of Charlotte Tilbury makeup products, including one of Charlotte’s latest launches, the Airbrush Flawless Foundation (£39).
Trusted by celebrities, makeup artists and beauty lovers, the brand’s newest foundation has already built a reputation for delivering airbrushed skin without looking too heavy or overdone. And Amal’s Golden Globes appearance only cemented its status.

The foundation has gone viral since its launch, thanks to being full coverage, long-wearing and still having that weightless feel on the skin. Makeup artists especially love it because it blurs pores, smooths textures, and stays put for hours, even under intense red-carpet lights.
It’s become known for creating a “your skin but better” effect, and works just as well for a Hollywood event as it does for an everyday makeup look.
To finish off the skin, Amal’s MUA, Dimmitris Giannetos, used the not-yet-launched Airbrush Flawless Blur Concealer, which currently has thousands on the waitlist ready for its arrival.
The extra glow came from the Beauty Light Wand in Spotlight (£30). This soft-gold liquid highlighter delivers a dewy, lit-from-within finish thanks to clever ingredients, such as Glow Gel, which gives that luminous, glossy highlight effect.

Other complexion products on the red carpet included Rare Beauty’s Positive Light Tinted Moisturiser (£29), which helped create Selena Gomez’s awards-ready makeup look.
Old Hollywood-era bobs made a comeback at the 2026 Golden Globes– here’s who wore the look best…
The Golden Globes 2026 red carpet was a reminder that nothing says star power quite like a great bob. Several A-listers arrived having ditched their longer lengths, leaning into short cuts styled with a nod to old Hollywood. We’re talking glossy finishes, sculpted waves and serious screen-siren energy from a different era.

And as well as film and TV, there was a new award for podcasts in this year’s line-up.
Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor in a drama film at the Golden Globes for his role in Marty Supreme, and thanked his ‘partner’ during his emotional acceptance speech

Timothée Chalamet gave a heartfelt nod to girlfriend Kylie Jenner during his Golden Globes acceptance speech.
The actor scooped up the best actor in a drama film award for his portrayal of a table tennis champion in the sports flick Marty Supreme.
This marks the star’s maiden Golden Globe triumph, arriving just one week after he claimed the Critics Choice award for the same role, , reports the Daily Star..
The 30 year old thanked his fellow cast and crew members as he collected the honour from presenter Jennifer Lopez. “This category is stacked. I look up to all of you, thank you,” he told the audience.
“To [my director] Josh Safdie, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for this role. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for this portrait, for your mind, for your worldview.”
His speech then became more emotional, with the 30 year old reflecting: “My dad instilled in me a spirit of gratitude growing up, always be grateful for what you have.
“It’s allowed me to leave this ceremony in the past empty-handed, my head held high, grateful just to be here. But I would be lying if those moments didn’t make this moment that much sweeter.”
He wrapped up by saying: “For my parents, for my partner, I love you. Thank you so much,” he concluded. Chalamet’s mention of Jenner follows closely after the Critics’ Choice awards, where he described the reality television personality as his “foundation” during his acceptance speech.
He declared: “I’ll just say thank you to my partner of three years. Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
Jenner was present at the event alongside Chalamet but chose not to pose on the red carpet.
The couple were filmed within the Beverly Hilton’s ballroom, mingling with fellow guests at their table.

Video clips also captured Jennifer Lawrence, a well-known admirer of the Kardashian family, making her way over to chat with Jenner.
Lawrence was spotted bending down for an animated conversation with Jenner, before turning her attention to Safdie.
