On March 12, Danny celebrated his 39th birthday and his I’m A Celebrity co-stars reportedly wished him a happy birthday in their WhatsApp group chat.

“No one really ever speaks in it but on Danny’s birthday, everyone was pinging him a message in there”, an insider said to The Sun. “Maura didn’t send a message, which isn’t surprising”.

They have been wrapped up in scandal since video footage emerged as the kiss put strain on Danny’s marriage to former Miss England Georgia Horsley.

Danny and Maura, who met on the latest series of I’m A Celebrity, were seen looking close at a glitzy party before heading onto the five-star Nobu Hotel in London for more drinks.

Danny recently apologised for what happened in a grovelling apology shared on social media while his wife moved out of the family home temporarily to spend time with her friends and “get away” from all that is going on.

In a statement, the McFly singer said: “Hello everyone, sorry it’s taken me a while to post this but I’ve taken some time out to be with those closest to me.

” I want to deeply apologise to my wife and family for putting them in this situation. I love them so much and we’ll continue to deal with this privately.

“I love you guys, thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. See you all soon, Danny”.

Meanwhile, Maura recently took part in a huge shoot for fashion brand Oh Polly and shared snaps from her American getaway on social media. Despite painting a picture she has brushed off the scandal, sources have told The Mirror it has been a tough few weeks for the star.

Maura recently gave her own insight into her thoughts on being involved in the scandal as she ‘liked’ a fan comment on her recent post. A follower supported Maura and wrote: “You are unreal. Don’t listen to the haters. U are a diamond.”

Jamie O’Hara’s fiancée shows off six-figure engagement ring as eye-watering price revealed

Jamie O’Hara proposed to Keziah Grubb while on an idyllic holiday, and an expert says that his ring of choice could only have sealed the deal with a diamond worth thousands

Jamie O’Hara revealed that he got engaged yesterday and it seems he didn’t hold back on the ring. The star proposed to new fiancée Keziah Grubb while on a romantic getaway, and their private pool wasn’t the only thing making a splash.

The former footballer shared several photos of the milestone moment on his Instagram, including two close-up shots of Keziah’s sparkling engagement ring. The ring shone on recruitment boss Keziah’s hand, featuring an unbelievably huge diamond set on a thin band encrusted with smaller stones. Maxwell Stone, an expert from jewellers Steven Stone, has weighed in on the gorgeous piece of bling and revealed to the Mirror exactly what went into making it – alongside estimating its jaw-dropping price.

According to the expert, the size of Keziah’s diamond is nothing to laugh at. “Keziah’s stunning engagement ring from Jamie features a breathtaking 4-carat oval-cut diamond”, he said.

Maxwell added: “In photos of the ring, the centre diamond is flanked by smaller oval-cut stones on either side, suggesting it may have diamond-set shoulders. Alternatively, rather than opting for a traditional pavé band, Jamie may have chosen an elegant design featuring a series of interlinked oval-cut diamonds”.

Such a heavy diamond and several smaller glittering stones don’t come cheap, and Maxwell also estimated the value of the stunning jewellery. “I’d estimate Keziah’s ring to be worth around £200, 000”, he revealed.

While £200,000 is quite an investment to make on a piece of jewellery, former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jamie looked over the moon as Keziah said ‘yes’ and put the ring on her finger.

The duo were on holiday when he popped the question, providing a beautiful setting for the life-changing moment. In photos Jamie shared, he and Keziah were captured standing on a balcony overlooking a gorgeous sunset, with mountains visible over the rooftops in the background.

Jamie wore a white top and beige chinos, while Keziah showed off her tan in a chic white skirt as the couple shared a kiss. He added more snaps from the balcony, revealing a small private pool, candles, and more glasses sitting beside a bottle of champagne.

The TalkSport star also penned a moving caption alongside the shots, mentioning his beloved mother Anne who died from cancer aged just 46 when Jamie was only 17.

“SHE SAID YES!!!! So lucky to have found you and my mum would be so proud of us”, he wrote alongside a heart emoji. “@keziah_adrienne you are my everything”.

Prior to his engagement to Keziah, Jamie was married to former Miss England star Danielle Lloyd. The duo share sons Archie, 14, Harry, 13, and George, 11, and tied the knot in 2012.

Just a couple of years after getting married Danielle called time on the relationship, after learning that Jamie had been unfaithful to her.

OJ Simpson’s estate block Kim Kardashian from buying handwritten note by dad

The executor of OJ’s estate, Malcolm LaVergne, said the Bible – which was gifted to OJ Simpson – also included a handwritten note from Kim’s father dated June 18, 1994

Kim Kardashian was reportedly blocked from buying a Bible Robert Kardashian Sr gifted OJ Simpson, which included a note from her dad. The Bible, which was given to the late football player the day after he was arrested for murder, has now been sold at an auction for $80,000 (£62,000).

The executor of OJ’s estate, Malcolm LaVergne, said the Bible also included a handwritten note from Kim’s father dated June 18, 1994. “OJ, this book will help. God loves and he will speak to you with his words. Read this book every day. God has a definite plan for your life. You are his child and he will use you again. I love you and God loves you”, the note read.

According to RadarOnline, Kim wanted to buy the book but it was denied by the late football star’s estate. The Mirror have reached out to Kim’s representatives for comment.

Robert died in September 2003, just two months after being diagnosed with oesophageal cancer. The lawyer rose to prominence through his involvement in the OJ Simpson murder trial.

The lawyer was diagnosed with oesophageal cancer in July 2003. The sad news came as a shock to his loved ones as he didn’t smoke or drink. There was also no history of cancer in his family.

Kim had been very close to her dad and recently revealed how she learned his cancer was terminal. Robert had been dining out with his family at their favourite Armenian restaurant when he struggled to swallow his food and seemed unwell.

When they went to the hospital, the doctor revealed to Kim and her sister Kourtney Kardashian that their dad’s cancer was terminal.

Robert didn’t want to tell his parents about his diagnosis, but Kim thought it was important for them to know. “I called them, and they were, like, ‘ What? What are you talking about? We’ll be there in a few hours”, Kim recalled in an interview with GQ magazine.

“They came up from Palm Springs, and]their son] was in bed. Can you imagine? They were close, and to not tell them. My grandmother was never the same again”.

Khloe Kardashian previously talked about her father’s in her memoir Strong Looks Better Naked. She said: “At the funeral, when I saw my father in his casket, I completely fell apart.

” I don’t remember the details, but apparently I was an emotional wreck, and I’m told that I was so distraught I actually passed out. At one point I fell to the floor kicking and screaming, and I had to be sedated.

“It was really intense. I refused to believe my father was gone”.

The announcement comes at a particularly eventful time for the 24-year-old, as fans have been buzzing about her recent reunion with fiancé Tommy Fury. The couple, who first met on Love Island in 2019, sparked speculation after rumours swirled about a rough patch in their relationship. However, in recent days, the duo has been seen together, putting on a united front and reassuring their followers that all is well.

Tommy, a professional boxer, and Molly-Mae, a successful entrepreneur, have both been navigating their demanding careers while balancing parenthood. The couple welcomed their daughter, Bambi, in January 2023, and much of Molly-Mae: Behind It All offers fans an intimate look into the business woman’s life as she juggles work, love, and family.

The first set of episodes gave an unprecedented glimpse into Molly-Mae’s life beyond social media, covering everything from the highs of her business ventures to the challenges of motherhood and the emotional strains that come with fame. Fans praised the authenticity and rawness of the series, with many eager to see what’s next in the upcoming episodes.

With May 9th now marked on calendars, anticipation is at an all-time high. Will the new episodes address the recent headlines surrounding her relationship? Will viewers get an inside look at how she and Tommy have managed to overcome challenges?

Just this past weekend, Molly and Tommy enjoyed a cosy Mother’s Day together with their daughter. In exclusive pictures, the couple were seen arriving separately at a Cheshire pub to mark the occasion. The Love Island couple announced their shock split last year, with fans stunned by the announcement they had gone their separate ways. Following the news, Molly-Mae’s documentary aired, where she admitted it was hard going through a split in the public eye.

In a separate interview, Tommy also shared his thoughts on the split and explained what happened between them to end their romance. However, later, the pair were seen on holiday in Dubai together.

They avoided being photographed together until they made their return to Manchester. However, the couple seem happier than ever and in new photos, the pair arrived and left separately at the pub in their matching cars. The couple had spent the day together with Bambi at the Lowry Theatre before making their way to the pub.

Just last week, Molly-Mae finally addressed speculation she had reunited with Tommy. In a video shared online with her fans, she said: “We’re just figuring things out. We had a really really amazing time, probably the best holiday ever for all of us. It’s not I’m hiding it, I’m not quite ready to talk about it. It’s also as private, but also it’s not really private.

” When you have a relationship in the public eye, trying to rebuild that relationship or work on that relationship or see if you have something worth saving… You can’t figure things out the way a normal relationship would. You can’t do the normal things a couple trying to work on their relationship normally do. “

Speaking to Bambi, she added:” We’re just figuring things out and seeing how it goes. “She also admitted she was struggling with anxiety and pulled a clip of her talking about Tommy from her past vlog.

” I don’t want you guys to think I’m not being honest about who went on the holiday to Dubai. I did do a big talking section that we were going with Tommy, but I didn’t want to put it in the last vlog because I didn’t want anxiety, “she said”, The only reason I’ve not spoken about it is I’m not ready to. I was a bit nervous and I didn’t need to explain that I was going with Tommy. “

Jamie Oliver’s wild response to wife Jools suspecting affair during ‘marriage rut’

Jamie Oliver, famed for his quick and easy recipes for all the family, met wife Jools when he was just a teenager and has spoken candidly about the ups and downs of marriage

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has been loved up with wife Jools for more than thirty years, but it hasn’t always been plain sailing for the teenage sweethearts. On camera, Jamie is known as one of the nation’s most well-loved celebrity chefs.

He is famed for his quick and easy 15-minute meals, and now has a TV series dedicated to air fryer recipes, with Jamie’s Air Fryer Meals on Channel 4. Since rising to stardom almost 25 years ago with The Naked Chef series, he has been on a mission to educate parents and their children about how to eat more healthily.

But away from the screens, the 49-year-old is a proud family man and devoted husband. He and wife Jools share a brood of five, each with unusual names – Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela, Petal Blossom Rainbow, Buddy Bear Maurice, and River Rocket Blue Dallas.

The family-of-seven moved into a £6m 16th-century mansion in Essex in 2019, which boasts a 70-acre estate with a pool, tennis court, and its own allotment. The TV chef has often been open about his long marriage to his beloved Juliette Norton, known as Jools, laying bare, with brutal honesty, the ups and downs which left them in a ‘ rut’.

The couple tied the knot in 2000 after first meeting as teenagers when they were just 17 and 18. Despite Jools moving away to live in Tokyo for three months, he was undeterred by the long distance and sent her romantic love letters in a bid to win over his future wife. ”When I was 17 I worked in Tokyo for three months and every single day Jamie sent me a letter or a fax without fail!” Jools shared to her Instagram account.

When she returned they became inseparable, renting a tiny flat in Hammersmith while Jamie worked in the kitchen at the famous River Cafe. But after two decades of marriage and five children later, it is no surprise that there have been a few lessons learned along the way. In 2021, Jamie revealed to the Australian Women’s Weekly: ‘ ‘ I think you learn to love in lots of different ways.

‘ ‘ You learn to love the person you married but also, it’s exciting because the rollercoaster of growing, becoming parents, getting older, having grey hairs and wrinkles, you can love all those bits. You don’t just love one bit. I feel very lucky. I started dating Jools when I was 18. She’s been a really solid and utterly important part of my life and my job’s quite exciting.

“It expects quite a lot, and she’s my rock. She allows me to do my thing but then comes home and lets me be me… And I think she still quite likes me, which is really nice”. But their journey hasn’t been smooth sailing, with jealousy and speculation about cheating rearing its ugly head more than once.

With stay-at-home mum Jools taking on the bulk of the parenting and spending weeks on end away from her busy husband, Jamie’s extreme work schedule began to cause friction. He had vowed to quit public life within three years back in 2005, but by 2011 he was still just a ‘ weekend dad ‘ and the infamous workaholic admitted their marriage was in a ‘ rut’.

Jamie said in 2011: “I’m not a worrier but she is a worrier. I don’t need that and she doesn’t need that, so we’re in a bit of a rut”. Jools also opened up about tension, admitting: “We bicker all the time. A lot of my friends can’t believe how much. He drives me mad because he never listens to me and I drive him mad because I can be horribly selfish”.

In the same year, Jools admitted that she snooped on him to check he wasn’t having an affair. She explained in The Telegraph: “I’ll check his email. I’ll check his Twitter. I’ll check his phone. Everything seems fine. He says I’m a jealous girl, but I think I’m fairly laidback, considering”.

What she was referring to was his early days in showbiz, when Jamie had admitted to girls throwing themselves at him. He previously said: “It wasn’t just young girls, it was medium and young girls and it was classic slightly rock star-esque: random knickers and bras getting thrown at you”, he told the Telegraph.

And in 2018, Jamie confirmed that his wife suspected he had in fact cheated on her. He told Closer magazine: “My missus accused me of having an affair once, because I kept disappearing and coming back with green on my knees. It was courgette season and I was in the vegetable patch”!

Meanwhile, Jools has previously opened up about the heartbreak of suffering five miscarriages. Two happened before she gave birth to her son River, four, in 2016, and another three came afterwards. Marking Baby Loss Awareness Week in 2020, she paid tribute to, “our own 5 little stars we never got to hold in our arms xxx”

But Jamie and Jools faced the hard times together and renewed their vows earlier this year, in a very different ceremony to when they first got hitched. Ahead of the special day, Jools told Red Magazine: “We’re going to get married again, but do things differently – outside and barefoot. Our wedding was formal, but we’re so not like that. It’ll be a big party. Why the hell not? I think we’ve done well”!

When the time came in April, after 23 years together, Jamie revealed to fans that it took place on the beach in the Maldives. Announcing the happy news, Jamie wrote: ‘ ‘ Yep, after 23 years together, we thought it would be a special moment to celebrate renewing our wedding vows before the kids all start leaving the nest.

‘ ‘ It was really special, funny and romantic with the words in the ceremony making more sense having come this far together. It seems like a blink since the first wedding which we kept very private apart from the paparazzi at the village church we thought it would be a happy and joyful moment to share with you all this Easter. ‘ We’ve always dreamed of going to the Maldives and it was just as you would have dreamed, simply amazing. ‘ ‘

Eamonn Holmes hit with huge career setback as show cancelled amid ‘tough’ Ruth Langsford divorce

Eamonn Holmes ‘ plans to step into the world of live theatre have been brought to an unexpected halt as the GB News presenter’s tour was suddenly cancelled by organisers

Eamonn Holmes has faced yet another setback as his planned theatre tour has been cancelled due to ‘poor ticket sales’. The 65-year-old GB News presenter was due to make his live stage debut on 11 March, but sluggish demand for tickets reportedly led organisers to pull the plug.

A source told The Sun: “Eamonn was really looking forward to the show. He loves interacting with the public and meeting fans. But ticket sales just weren’t there. It’s been a tough time for him personally and this is another disappointment to deal with.” The Mirror has reached out to Eamonn’s representatives for comment.

Eamonn announced the Things We Like! tour back in December as he took to social media to tell fans: “Coming your way soon and in theatres around the Country. Maybe the perfect last minute Christmas gift!”

Last week, the presenter updated fans about the tour being postponed, saying: “Working with my mates @Coytey67 and Deano on our soon to be released podcast/ videocast Things we Like today. Hoping you like the same things. Will keep you posted re launch date”.

Last year, Eamonn made headlines when he announced his split from fellow presenter Ruth Langsford after 14 years of marriage. Ruth and Eamonn’s marriage reportedly ended after the Loose Women presenter discovered he was ‘sharing intimate chats with another woman’.

A source told The Sun that the Irish presenter ‘thought he was home alone’ when he was on the phone. “But Ruth could hear him from elsewhere in the house and was totally horrified,” they said. “She confronted Eamonn. It was quite a shock — for both of them.”

The insider added it was ‘a huge blow’ for Ruth, who recently celebrated her 65th birthday with her close friends, as she was caring for him as he dealt with health issues.

“To discover he was sharing intimate chats with another woman was a real kick in the teeth for Ruth”, they claimed. The source went on to allege the discovery of the phone call happened in April last year, and a few weeks later, she found messages on his laptop.

Eamonn has since moved on with his new girlfriend Katie Alexander, with the pair showcasing their romance with trips and outings. The former couple had been together since 1996 and married since 2010. While the duo have kept mostly quiet about their split, Ruth previously said dealing with the divorce had been ‘very painful’ for her – especially while handling it in the public eye.

Ruth has now told friends she won’t start dating again until her divorce from Eamonn Holmes is finalised. Our source says that despite 65-year-old Eamonn moving on with Katie Alexander, who is 22 years his junior, Loose Women panellist Ruth is not ready for a new relationship and “just wants out” of her marriage.

“She’s still wearing her wedding ring because she’s coming to terms with a long relationship ending, and realising Eamonn maybe wasn’t the person she thought he was,” our source claimed. “And she’s also coming to terms with life being very, very different for her going forward.

” Ruth has been having fun going out with her girlfriends, and enjoying a little flirt, but that’s it. She really needs the Eamonn chapter to be fully closed before she can move on romantically, she needs her freedom.

“She really isn’t dating, it’s the last thing she wants to do,” our source continued. “She just wants to get the divorce over and done with. Her friends would love to see her happy with someone else, but she needs to get the divorce over with first before she can properly move on.”
