Reality TV star Whitney Thore has criticised GB News host Eamonn Holmes, 65, for his actions in a live interview.

Whitney, 40, spoke to Eamonn on Sky News in 2015, and told the Daily Star this week that she’d never consider speaking to him again. “I haven’t done any UK TV shows in about 10 years, but I would gladly go on any and all of them again—except for]any with] Eamonn Holmes”, she blasted.

“My experience in the UK has always been so lovely, and I love my time here so much,” he said during the worst interview of my entire career.

Whitey, who hosted the interview in question on TLC’s My Big Fat Fabulous Life, said to Eamonn back during the interview that “fat people so frequently offend others in society, and I believe this is one of the most recent socially acceptable prejudices.”

The This Morning alum retorted, “But what about those who care about you? ” Some people worry that you’ll keel over and pass away because your body or heart might not be able to carry all your enthusiasm, I mean.

Whitney responded by making repeated assertions about prejudice, saying, “I believe that concern for health is frequently used as a mask to treat fat people.” Because I weigh 380 pounds, I’m not naive to the health issues that might arise if I continue to be this weight, so I’d like to break some stereotypes about fat people. But I’ve never even experienced high blood pressure, and I’ve never had any major health issues.”

Eamonn then raised his concerns about Whitney’s health, listing possible problems with her because of her weight, and making it seem as though she looked uneasy. “I have to say, I advocate – I am overweight, I’m constantly lampooned for being overweight, but I do speak to you from concern”, he began.

“You’re doing your ankles no good, your knees no good, your hips no good, your heart probably no good. So I do think there is concern”.

Eamonn then referred to Whitney’s viral dancing videos, and again suggested she needed to drop pounds. “But at least you’re doing something. Are you doing those moves to reduce your weight, or to say, ‘ I may be big, but I can still enjoy myself? ‘”

Eamonn currently uses a wheelchair, but he can use a walker for short periods of time, according to the Express, and has serious mobility issues of his own. He also has back surgery and is currently primarily using a wheelchair. Eamonn described living with an “epidemic of pain” back in January last year and made the possibility that he might never be able to walk unaided once more.

regrettably, his mobility issues prevented him from attending Josie’s funeral in November 2023. At the time, Eamonn shared: “It’s as if somebody up there is playing with my life.

I had a back operation last year that went wrong and left me in a wheelchair. I’ve fallen and broken my shoulder. Honestly, you could not make it up. “

This week, Dancing on Ice contestants glided across the ice in routines inspired by famous movies, which was a huge success for viewers. However, host Holly Willoughby also donned stunning attire for the occasion, appearing as Glinda from Wicked, which was not just the stars.

Alongside her pink tulle dress, magic wand and glittering headband, Holly’s makeup was the perfect soft feminine glam for the look, with fans praising her look. “You looked so good as Glinda!!”! said one, whilst another agreed: “Absolutely beautiful Holly. You look great too Stephen”. A third added: “You both looked great… Holly you looked like a beautiful princess”.

If you were a big fan of Holly’s style, Patsy O’Neill, her makeup artist, shared the products she used to create it, as well as the precise shades for the soft smokey eye.

Before Dancing on Ice, Holly Willoughby uses these skincare staples to reduce puffy eyes.

All good eye makeup starts with eyeshadow, and for Holly’s Glinda look, Patsy used Victoria Beckham’s Smoky Eye Brick palette, £56, in the shade signature, which has a mixture of warm neutral tones in a matte finish. The shades perfectly complement one another, making them soft, understated smokey eyes.

Patsy then used Trish McEvoy’s 24 Hour Eye Shadow and Liner, £36, in shade shell – a bright, pale pink that matched the pink tones in Holly’s dress. The shadow pen and liner combo is creamy and highly pigmented, creating a crease-proof look that can be easily blended.

For Holly’s eyeliner, Patsy used the Beauty Pie Deluxe Precision Liquid Liner, £15 (or £9 for Beauty Pie members), to create Holly’s signature cat eye flick. The liquid liner has a pointed tip that instantly gives off a sharp flick, and it is smudge-proof and waterproof, keeping it in place throughout the entire performance.

To finish off the look, Patsy applied several coats of Hourglass Unlocked Instant Extensions Mascara, £32, which lifts, lengthens and defines lashes. Your lashes stay put all day thanks to the mascara’s patented smudge-proof film, which can be easily removed with just warm water.

Any beauty fan knows your eyebrows can totally transform your face, and to create some natural-looking definition on Holly’s, Patsy used the Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil, £37, in shade blonde. She used BBB London Clear Brow Gloss, which is currently available for £18.40 (down from £23), to create hold and shape. It has a glossy, natural appearance that nourishes your brows as you wear it.

We’re eagerly awaiting Holly’s upcoming beauty look!

When Sue Radford revealed her friend’s devastating dementia diagnosis on the television program last week, she was crying.

The star of Channel 5’s 22 Kids and Counting, 48, worried her family when they found leaflets for early-onset dementia, with Sue later explaining that her lifelong friend had been diagnosed with the condition.

dementia with symptoms that do not start before the age of 65 is defined as early-onset dementia. This condition may occur due to various different causes, including degenerative, autoimmune, or infectious processes. The most common form of early onset dementia is Alzheimer’s disease, followed by frontotemporal dementia, and vascular dementia, with Alzheimer’s disease accounting for between 40 and 50% of cases.

More than 70, 800 people are estimated to be living with early-onset dementia in the UK. Dementia UK reports that symptoms can start as early as 30; however, it is typically identified much later, between the ages of 50 and 64.

Sue was in total disbelief when she told her husband, Noel, about her friend, who is the same age as her. The father-of-22, who initially thought the dementia leaflets were for his wife, was equally shocked as he told his spouse: ‘ ‘ It is devastating news. “

Sue said: ‘ You kind of think, don’t you, that it’s something you get when you’re maybe 70, 80 – it’s not something you think of in your late 40s, is it? ‘ It’s knocked me for six. I feel like ‘ Wow, that could happen to anybody, couldn’t it? ‘ ‘

Everyone will have their own symptoms, and each type of dementia will have different effects on different people. However, some typical early symptoms may develop before dementia is identified. According to the NHS, these include:

Early-onset dementia symptoms

• Memory loss
• Difficulty concentrating
• Finding it difficult to perform well-known daily tasks
• Struggling to follow a conversation
• Being confused about time and place/Getting lost
• Mood changes

How is early-onset dementia diagnosed?

There’s no single test for early onset dementia. Instead, a doctor will make a diagnosis after assessing the symptoms, discussing medical history, and performing a variety of dementia tests. These may include:

• Interviews with the person experiencing symptoms and someone who knows them well to discuss changes in thinking abilities, mood/behaviour, personality, movement, vision, hearing, and other functions.
• Review of existing medical conditions and medications.
• Physical, neurologic, and psychiatric examination.
• Mental status tests.
• typically include an MRI and a variety of PET or other scans, brain scans are common.
• Neuropsychological assessment.
• Blood, spinal fluid, or other tests to rule out other conditions.

How is early-onset dementia treated?

There is currently no cure for dementia, but doctors have been successful in helping some people maintain their mental function, control behaviour, and slow the progress of the disease.

There is medication that can temporarily lessen the symptoms. Support is also available to help someone with the condition, and their family, cope with everyday life.

How to help someone with early-onset dementia

Choosing how much assistance to give a loved one who has early-onset dementia will likely still be independent is one of the biggest difficulties that caregivers and family members face in the beginning. It’s crucial to provide assistance with daily tasks. These can include:

• shopping
• laying the table
• gardening
• taking the dog for a walk

The person can recall where things are with the aid of memory sticks in the home. For example, you could put labels and signs on cupboards, drawers and doors.

According to reports, Opera singer-turned-presenter Wynne Evans left Strictly Come Dancing star Aljakorjanec after making sexual remarks about his wife Janette Manrara.

The Welshman used offensive language that appeared to make people uncomfortable at an event held during the tour’s launch in Birmingham. Although Alja has since received reprimands for his actions, he has also been subjected to criticism from BBC bosses.

When Janette approached a group of the 2024 series’ stars, Evans was caught making an inappropriate sexual remark. He sang out: “Go Compare”, before adding: “Not too close to Jamie”. Then, in reference to a lewd sexual act, he made the incredibly offensive term “spit roast.” In a statement, Evans told the Mirror: “My language was inappropriate and unacceptable, for which I sincerely apologise”.

Wynne, who also himself at the centre of drama after a “vulgar” joke he reportedly made behind-the-scenes was “leaked”, recently pulled out of the Strictly tour’s stint in Glasgow due to an ankle injury. But it has now been claimed Aljaž certainly didn’t see the funny side of the comment.

“Wynne received a severe fine for his indecent language, and he was given the assurance that it would not be tolerated,” he remarked in his final letter. It was a proper dressing-down”, an insider told MailOnline. “Wynne also gave a grovelling apology to Janette and her furious husband, Aljaz”.

Evans and dance partner Katya had an “inside joke” with him and he appeared to move it closer to her stomach a few weeks ago, but he was hit with resentment. As the pair sat side by side, Katya made an apparent brush away from his hand.

In a photo with the scandal-hit star, Evans appears to have Katya’s backing despite the most recent controversy. She re-shared a post, orginally posted by Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri as she, Tasha, Wynne and Jamie Borthwick sat in a bar, relaxing. Captioning her re-share, Katya penned: “Tour fam”, along with a red-heart emoji.

Aljaz met Janette at the 2010 dance studios in London and they fell in love right away. Artem Chigvintsev and Pasha Kovalev, both of whom Janette had previously dated, were also on the Strictly roster. But while they were short lived romances, this time it was the real deal.

He kneeld down at their first dance studios in 2015 to make the proposal. Their wedding came two years later, with Janette’s former celebrity dance partner Julien Macdonald creating her dream, Audrey Hepburn inspired, wedding dress.

The Strictly stars who were present at the London ceremony included Anton Du Beke, Oti Mabuse, Katya Jones, and Kevin Clifton. They then moved on to have two more appearances with Aljaz’s family in Slovenia, and the final one with Janette’s close friends in Miami.
