Singer-songwriter Harry Styles and actor Zoë Kravitz are said to have been spotted kissing at a restaurant in the UK last week. The apparent date reportedly took place just days before they were spotted arm-in-arm whilst out in Italy.
Earlier, it was reported that Harry, 31, and Zoë, 36, were in Rome together yesterday. Footage that has been shared on social media appeared to show the Batman star linked with the One Direction member as they walked through the city.
It’s now been claimed that the pair, who are both thought to have come out of previous relationships last year, have been on “a string of dates” already. Harry and Zoë are said to have been seen kissing whilst on a date in London just last week.

According to the Sun, Harry and Zoë were spotted kissing whilst inside Rita’s bistro in London last Tuesday. They are said to have met up after the premiere of the film Caught Stealing, which stars Zoë, in Leicester Square that evening.
According to a source, Harry and Zo were hidden in Rita’s’ corner and were snogging like teenagers. They claimed that the pair appeared to be “really into each other” and didn’t care about being discovered.
Harry and Zo were seen arriving together after she had attended the nearby premiere. The source continued to imply that the two actors were “gorgeous” as a couple before revealing to the media that they were “definitely a date.”

After she left France for Caught Stealing’s more recent premiere on Thursday, it is said that they eventually met up in Italy. According to legend, she flew to meet Harry after she finished working, and it was suggested that they would meet in Rome because he spends “a lot of time” there.
Harry and Zol continued to claim that it was “early days” for them, but the source teased that they were enjoying each other’s company. There are no labels, they claimed for the outlet. They are having a lot of fun together.
Harry and Zo have a history of making headlines for their relationships. Both of them are said to have engaged in well-known romance in the past. Both are thought to have broken up earlier this year.

Zoë had been linked to Channing Tatum for three years. It was however reported in October last year that the Blink Twice co-stars had decided to part ways, ending the rumoured engagement between the two actors.
Harry is instead said to have been single since his apparent split from actor Taylor Russell in May last year after 14 months together. More recently, he was reportedly spotted kissing a producer whilst at Glastonbury in June this year.

Yesterday, Amanda Holden hosted a garden party for Lisa Faulkner, John Torode, and Alan Carr. Photos from the event were shared today.
Former MasterChef host John Torode and his wife Lisa Faulkner were among the guests at a garden party hosted by Amanda Holden over the bank holiday weekend. The couple joined other celebrities at the recent gathering.
Amanda, 54, hosted a party at her home in Surrey yesterday to celebrate having renovated her garden. The Britain’s Got Talent judge has said that she had the “most amazing day” with family and friends, who included long-time pal Lisa, 53, and her husband John, 60, at the summer get together.
Lisa and John teased that they were heading out in posts on Instagram last night. They shared a photo that showed the couple dressed in matching white outfits in a living room. In his caption, John wrote on the platform yesterday: “Sunday best and so out with [Lisa] & wonderful friends.”
More recently, photos shared by Amanda showed the couple at the party itself. One photo showed Lisa and the host stood beside pals including Angela Griffin, Tamzin Outhwaite and Nicola Stephenson in the garden.
In the caption that she included in her post today, Amanda described the group as her “lovely friends.” She also wrote to followers, “My lovely friends at our Mexican garden party! more photos to come soon.

Another photo showed the group with additional guests, including Lisa’s husband John and Amanda’s pal Alan Carr. The host wrote: “The most amazing day celebrating our finished garden […] with our beautiful friends and family.”
Lisa responded, “Such a lovely day! Thank you for a wonderful evening. John also shared the photo on his account, and he wrote, “That was so fun. Thank you, Crispy and Mandy.
Amanda has also shared additional party material. A video was included that showed the celebration. What a wonderful day, she wrote in the caption. She praised the event planners and vendors who had been involved in the event, saying “everything was purchased and paid for.”
John’s attendance at the party comes following the news last month that he would not have his contract for MasterChef renewed. Production company Banijay said that an investigation into his co-star Gregg Wallace’s behaviour by firm Lewis Silkin had “substantiated an accusation of highly offensive racist language against” John. John has however said: “I have no recollection of what I’m accused of.”

His wife Lisa later broke her silence after his departure from the show. In a video message, she thanked fans for their support, saying: “Hi there. I just wanted to check in and say hello. I’m here and just thank you for all your lovely comments because they really, really mean a lot. So thank you.”
The BBC had previously said: “John Torode has identified himself as having an upheld allegation of using racist language against him. This allegation, which involves an extremely offensive racist term being used in the workplace, was investigated and substantiated by the independent investigation led by the law firm, Lewis Silkin. John Torode denies the allegation.
He has stated that he does not believe the alleged incident occurred and that he does not recall any of it. Additionally, he asserts that any racial expression is completely unacceptable in any setting. This upheld finding is taken seriously by the BBC. We have already stated that we have to take action against the makers of MasterChef, Banijay UK, and that we will not tolerate any kind of racist language. The contract with MasterChef will not be renewed for John Torode.
Then, according to John, “I’m seeing and reading that I’ve been “sacked” from MasterChef and I’ve been told that I’ve been ‘sacked’ from the BBC or Banijay… I’m recollecting what I’m accused of. The inquiry couldn’t even identify the year or date that I was supposed to have said something incorrect.
“Even though events in the last few days seem to have prevented that, I had hoped that I would have some say in my departure from a show I’ve worked on since its relaunch in 2005. I’ve been thinking about my life and how it will change over the coming and future over the past few months.
My final film, Celebrity MasterChef, will feature two incredible Christmas specials and I recently filmed with Grace Dent. I’ve loved working on MasterChef every minute, but now it’s time to turn over the cutting board. For whoever ascends, I adore it as much as I do.
“I’ll watch intently from a distance as I work on a number of other exciting projects.” After 20 years of eating, my stomach will be grateful for a rest, but what a relief it has been. Life is ever-changing and ever-moving, and occasionally there were other people’s true happiness and fulfillment. I appreciate you for MasterChef’s many years.

According to Banijay, the legal team at Lewis Silkin that concluded the allegations against Gregg Wallace also supported an accusation of offensive racism directed at John Torode, which occurred in 2018. Banijay UK and John Torode have formally discussed this matter, and Lewis Silkin has upheld the extremely serious complaint. We have come to terms with Banijay UK and the BBC about ending his MasterChef contract.

Helen Flanagan, the star of Coronation Street, cried as she spoke out about the realities of parenting with Scott Sinclair, an ex-fiancé.
Helen Flanagan told fans she ‘f***ing hates co-parenting’ as she broke down in tears in an honest rant shared on her Instagram Stories on Monday. The 35-year-old soap star cried on camera while wearing a grey pyjama set with her blonde hair tied up into a messy bun.
After attending Manchester Pride on Sunday, she dropped off her kids, Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three, with ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair. As the former couple are co-parenting, the kids spend some of their holidays with the footballer but Helen isn’t the biggest fan of the set up.
Helen acknowledged that she struggled “absolutely.” I find it difficult when they disappear, and I only enjoy them disappearing when I do something. I’m currently experiencing a lot of anxiety.

Helen struggled with the absence of her children.
The Coronation Street star admitted she didn’t want her children to go before adding: “I just f**king hate co-parenting. I really really struggle…
I really struggle when they disappear, she says. They should not leave, I don’t like it. If I’m doing something, I only like them leaving. Simply put, it’s very difficult. It’s just really difficult, especially when you’re not moving along.
She continued, “Your babies, you can’t speak the same when they leave.” Because I’m always with the kids, I had a lot of anxiety recently, so I haven’t had a minute. This may help me some. It has two sides…

“When they leave, I want them back, and when I’m with them constantly, I get really depressed before f**king.” It makes me feel like I can’t drink [hands]… Yesterday, I didn’t drink that much.
I never drink a lot, and I always stick to tequilas. Although I’m not going to stop crying right now, I do believe it’s worthwhile to cry just to get it out.
She acknowledged that she recently experienced “bad anxiety,” and that she believes that because of the children returning to school, she can get organized by getting dressed up and having fun with my friends and getting some sleep, and getting some things done that I can’t normally do.
The actress claimed that she has been experiencing “a buildup of anxiety,” which hasn’t been “easy.” I’m fine, Helen said. Being alone is a real struggle for me because I’m always with one of my friends, not just in a relationship.
I’ve known my friends for a long time, which is why I enjoy using social media so much because I’m constantly interacting with people.
I can’t possibly think of anything worse because I’m so bad at being on my own. I really have no idea how to do it. I prefer my friends over me, and I dislike being alone. That is my breakdown, enough. I’ll create a list so I can be productive.

After meeting online, former EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison fell for a man 21 years her junior, and their wedding was a nightmare.
Finding fame playing hapless Heather Trott in EastEnders, Cheryl Fergison’s rollercoaster life is as dramatic as any Albert Square plot. Now, as she approaches 60, her bombshell autobiography, Behind The Scenes, gives a candid insight into some of her most memorable moments.
In part three of our exclusive series, in extracts adapted from her book, Cheryl reveals how she met her Moroccan husband Yassine el Jamouni, 39 – who is 21 years her junior – for the first time, after falling in love while they chatted online.
And, in the words of her great pal and EastEnders stalwart, Steve McFadden, who wrote the foreword to her book: “When Cheryl tells a story, people listen. She is engaging and holds court like no one else.”

According to Cheryl, “Yassine, or Yas, as I came to call him, was warm, funny, and never-endingly curious.”
I had a 45-year-old divorce and had to balance working and raising my child. He was 24 years old, residing in a Agadir, Morocco suburb, fixed computers in hotels, spoke Arabic, and was teaching himself English from tourists, television, music, and now, me. We began texting each other late at night, and essentially we were his human Duolingo.
He sent her selfies with his family, which led to their online friendship.
“Of course, I was struck by his handsome brooding appearance, caramel skin, and skillful stubble, but the conversation also felt innocent.”
Cheryl continues, “Soon, we were messaging every single day,” in EastEnders at the time. After a long day of filming, I would drive home from the set and watch as if Yas had written, which would present a small flurry of messages like modern love letters that were all awaiting to be opened.
Yas’s curiosity was only heightened by her reluctance to reveal too much about herself.
Cheryl writes, “His next message popped up a second later: “I don’t understand. Do you belong to MI5? I yelled. It was so ridiculous to imagine me posing with a handgun, drinking matinis, and defusing bombs in Albert Square between takes.

She eventually admitted to having trust issues and was a “larger lady,” and they eventually started making nightly Skype audio calls. Yas was having a serious relationship with Cheryl.
She states, “He began saying, Goodnight beautiful, on each call.
He said, “I think I love you,” just before hanging up one night.
I said, “I think I love you too, too,” in a heartbeat.
She kept getting angry until one night, when she shut her laptop down, she said, “I’m going to meet this man.”
As she waited for a flight to Casablanca, Morocco, where she would board a 35-minute transfer to Yas’ hometown of Agadir, EastEnders fans recognized her as she found herself in Gatwick Airport.
The panic started to permeate the place once there.
She states, “My heart started to pound.” I’m unable to breathe. I’m unable to breathe. Why am I here, exactly?
You flew to a country you’ve never visited before to meet a man you’ve never met in person. You don’t even speak the language. Are you completely insane?

Yas was nowhere to be seen when I looked around for him. My trusty battered black case with the purple ribbon fastened to the handle slammed against me as I searched for my bottle of water in my bag, hands shaking.
When I bent to grab it, a second hand reached down as well. Yas’s hand, not his hand, was it. And there he was.
She recalls Yas telling her, “I knew the moment I saw you, Cheryl,” just months later. that I would marry you and that I would be my future wife. “
And when she eventually accepted his proposal and told her EastEnders pal Steve McFadden, she writes: “Steve gave a low chuckle and stood up to pull me into one of his trademark bear hugs. ‘Blimey,’ he said, giving me a squeeze, ‘it only took you going halfway across the world to find a bloke….You’d better tell the scriptwriters then. Heather Trott getting a Moroccan husband might be the best storyline they’ve had in years!’”
However, their romantic wedding on May 2, 2011 was not.
She describes the wedding as “the worst I’ve ever attended.” In the Agadir register office, Yas and I were standing alone. It was a tiny, tiled room, which resembled a public restroom in all respects. The man who wed looked like Mr. Bean’s spitting image.
“Married by a Moroccan version of Mr. Bean in a tiled toilet. Only my life, to be honest”!
In 2015, Cheryl’s world was rocked with an unexpected health diagnosis(Image: Tim Merry/Mirror Express)
Cheryl was informed that she needed a hysterectomy after being diagnosed with womb cancer in 2015.
She writes, “The doctor entered, gently closed the door behind him, and gave me that look.” I’m really sorry, Cheryl, he softly said. Not encouraging news, then. You are cancerous. Stage II womb cancer
I was watching myself watch an episode of EastEnders, and it felt like a soap opera.
“Am I going to die?,” I asked myself at first. How do I tell Alex about my second? Yas then appeared in my head. He was in Morocco. He would say what? When he realized kids were completely unattainable, would he still want me?
Why me, I wanted to scream.
I desired the director to yell “cut,” and that the scene would be over and that I could leave the set.
“But something sprang from within the shock and sadness. I’d previously been knocked down, and I’d always sat up straight. “I could do it again.”
She had some tragi-comic experiences that many menopausal women will identify with, including an early menopause caused by her hysterectomy.
She writes, “The next morning, I go to heat up some milk and there they are,” after going through her keys for a long time one night. The bloody microwave has my keys inside. Cheryl, you are amazing. top grades Why do they even exist in a microwave? Did I intend to defrost them?

“It turns out that having no womb results in hormonal doom,” she said. We’re talking about night sweats, brain fog, hot flashes that make you feel like you’re slow roasting in an oven, and other unpleasant emotions. Isn’t being a woman just marvellous?

Fans criticized Rapper Snoop Dogg for making controversial remarks about the LGBTQIA+ representation in a recent film he and his grandson watched.

Snoop Dogg was hit with criticism after he made controversial comments about LGBTQIA+ representation in movies. The 53-year-old Vato rapper angered fans when he said he felt uneasy about taking his grandson to the cinema after being shocked at seeing same-sex representation in Disney’s movie, Lightyear.
He claimed that same-sex representation was “always present” in movies when he made the comment on the It’s Giving podcast. He asserted that “what you see is what you see,” and it is everywhere. When Snoop saw Alisha Hawthorne with her wife and child, he said his grandson was perplexed.
Snoop remarked, “She had a baby with another woman,” adding, “They’re like that.” In the middle of the movie, my grandson says, “Papa Papa Snoop,” right? How does she become pregnant with a woman? She’s a woman! ‘”

The Drop It Like It’s Hot singer, who caused outrage after performing at one of Donald Trump’s inaugural events, claims he had no idea how to respond to his grandson.
He said, “Oh sh**, I didn’t come in for this sh**,” and I was shocked. I’m just about to watch the movie “Goddamn”. His grandson then responded, “She and she had a baby, they’re both women,” and he replied, “It’s true.” How is she expecting?”
Snoop remarked that the situation “f**ked me up,” adding that it “threw him for a loop.” I’m afraid to go to the movies, I guess. You’re throwing me into a shitstorm for which I have no idea what to do. I was thrown for a loop by it. What scene in the movie was this, I wonder?
He expressed concern about Lightyear’s LGBTQIA representation.
He claimed that while kids are naturally curious, they should be shown LGBTQIA representation to young audience members.
“These are kids,” he said. At this age, we must demonstrate that. They will inquire. He responded, “I don’t have the answer.”
The rapper received criticism from fans on social media and expressed their disapproval. According to one user, “Snoop was not on my bingo card because he was the biggest disappointment ever.”
Another wrote, “God forbids children from seeing representation, and parents must talk to their children about it.” One parent said, “He showed his true colors at the inauguration, and now he is showing his hatred.”
One irritable user wrote, “It’s because people of his generation refuse to educate themselves, so they don’t know how to educate the generation the claim is “raising.”
One fan said, “Wow. I feel so foolish to have ever liked him. Why are we unable to have our voices heard in any way without outcry? It doesn’t have a agenda. Sometimes all we want to do is appear in the media and entertainment. Is that a “so wrong”?
