Vicky Pattison has let slip the cheeky five-word warning she tosses at her hubby, Ercan Ramadan, just to “keep him on his toes”.

The 37-year-old recently paid a visit to Rylan Clark’s YouTube talk show, Air Rylan. In the show, celebs cosy up to the BBC Radio 2 presenter in a mock-up of plane seats for a good old natter.

Vicky, who’s lighting up the screens on E4’s The Honesty Box, said ‘I do’ to TOWIE star Ercan Ramadan in Marylebone Town Hall, before they swooped off to Italy for a luxurious shindig the next month.

In the witty segment, Rylan asked the former Geordie Shore star if she was heading home, to which she replied by joking that she was preparing for her “third wedding”, referring to the event as a “homecoming” in Newcastle.

Rylan recalled she’d already had an Italian wedding, but Vicky clapped back: “I did, and also in Marylebone, and then I thought, ‘You know what? May as well get the hat-trick’. “

When Rylan quizzed why she’d fancy three trips down the aisle when one did the trick for him, Vicky said: “I always say to Erc, I was like, ‘You’re just my first husband’, just to keep him on his toes! “.

Rylan, who once exchanged vows with his ex-husband, former policeman and Big Brother’s Dan Neal, chimed in: “Yeah, absolutely. Well, he needs to be on his toes with you”.

Stirring up another revelation, Vicky previously spilled that their honeymoon was put on hold. Mere days after tying the knot, she jetted off to Cyprus to shoot The Honesty Box.

Reality star Vicky has revealed that plans for a romantic honeymoon have been put on hold for now, as she’s had to dive straight into promoting her new show.

She reflects: “When the time is right, no doubt we’ll have something really lovely, but for now, my focus has definitely got to be my career. “

Her husband has been her rock, being described by Vicky as her “number one fan” and “super supportive”. In fact, she feels she couldn’t have created her latest show without his support.

Teasing about plans to expand their family, Vicky expressed a hope that children will “come along soon” followed by family holidays complete with “all-inclusive water parks” – a “different adventure” altogether.

Vicky, who was on Geordie Shore and later Judge Geordie, also shared her contentment with married life, insisting she doesn’t “envy single people at all”.

Meghan Markle appears to make thinly-veiled dig at royals and says Prince Harry’s a ‘fox’

In a brand new podcast interview, Meghan Markle has opened up about her marriage to Prince Harry, saying they’ll be married ‘forever’ after reflecting on the early days of their romance

Meghan Markle in a new podcast interview

Meghan Markle appears to have made a thinly-veiled dig at the Royal Family in a brand new explosive podcast interview before gushing over her husband Prince Harry. The Duchess of Sussex has appeared on the podcast of Jamie Kern Lima, the founder of IT Cosmetics, for her first ever podcast interview, where she opened up on a range of topics, including her kids and as well as her newly-launched business, As Ever.

During the interview, Meghan heaped praise on her husband for his support as she launched her business and reminisced about the early days of their romance as they tried to keep their relationship under wraps. She described how the beginning of their relationship was like “butterflies” but claimed when news of them dating came out they “went into the trenches together. “

“You have to imagine, at the beginning it’s all butterflies – but then we immediately went into the trenches together. Right out of the gate, like six months into dating. So now seven years later, when you have a little bit of breathing space, you can just enjoy each other in a new way. And that’s why I feel like it’s more of a honeymoon period for us now. “

It comes after Meghan previously said in her Netflix series she was “thrown to the wolves” during her time in the Royal Family and struggled to adjust to the formalities of royal life.

Meghan also told the host that she and Harry will be married forever, calling him a ‘fox’ as he’s “very very handsome”. And she added: “H, that man loves me so much and you know, look what we’ve built. We have built a beautiful life and we have two healthy beautiful children. I always think about it, when you get the end of Super Mario Bros, the final final level and what’s the goal in Super Mario.

“It’s to slay the dragons and save the princess. And that’s my husband, he just out there and constantly doing whatever he can to to make sure our family is safe and protected and that we are uplifted – and still make time for date nights. “

Meanwhile, in another point in the interview, Jamie asks Meghan, who is make-up free, about her hopes for her children, specifically Lilibet. And Meghan replied how she hoped they would feel like “no-one has ever loved someone more than the way our mom loved us. “

She then explained how she has created email addresses for her children where she will send them messages each night before she goes to bed, with the intention of letting them see these emails when they are older – something she heard about doing from a friend.

Meghan told the podcast: “I thought it was such a great time capsule to create for them and so I created for the kids these email addresses that I will give them at some point. Before I go to bed, every night, I email them” and she explained these emails contain pictures “you’re not going to frame”, their report cards, and memories from their childhood.

And breaking down in tears as she said she would give them these emails when they hit 16 or 18, she said: “Here’s everything and every moment that I wanted to tell you how much I love you and how proud I am of you – and it’s making me emotional.

“It’s for them to be able to look back and go ‘gosh she has loved us so much’. And that is I think the best part about being a mom. ” She added: “It’s not about the grandeur of the gesture, it’s about I see you, I’m nurturing you and I see you so deeply. And I’m just so proud of them. ” She then joked as she wiped away tears: “I wasn’t expecting that one. They’re just so great. This is why it’s nice to have no make-up on. “

Elsewhere in the chat, Meghan is asked if she would ever run for office, and she told the host: “No. Never. Oh, God. No I’m not interested in that. ” Meanwhile, when asked if she would write another book, she replied: “Yes, maybe, for sure. And then, you know, I think people are often curious if I’m going to write a memoir, but I’ve got a lot more life to live before I’m there. “

She also revealed that she has not used the name ‘Markle’ since she got married, after admitting in her Netflix show With Love, Meghan that she now goes by the name Meghan Sussex now – in a nod to her royal title.

Meanwhile, Meghan also confessed that she is ‘done’ with having to prove herself to people as she knows she’s knows the “kind of human I am”. She said: “We spend so much of our lives trying to prove something, to prove that you’re enough, you have to prove that you’re pretty enough, you have to prove you’re smart enough, you have to prove that you’re a good wife or a good friend.

“And I was like ‘I am just so done with the proving game and if you can’t see it, I don’t need to prove to you why that’s your loss. I know that I’m a great friend, and I know the kind of mum I am, and I know the kind of human being I am, and I know how I show up. And I love being able to be that person with the people that I love. “

The interview comes after Meghan launched her Netflix show, new podcast and lifestyle brand As Ever. Meghan’s first batch of As Ever products, including raspberry spread, flower sprinkles and herbal tea, sold out, but her Netflix lifestyle series With Love, Meghan was met with a barrage of critical reviews.

The duchess also launched a new podcast series, Confessions Of A Female Founder, this month. In the latest episode she spoke about the “incredibly overwhelming” experience of being a mother working from home, and of nursing a poorly Archie and Lili.

Touted as a must-have for summer, shoppers are scooping up these linen trousers, with Boden notifying them that they are selling like hotcakes.

The much-loved Westbourne trousers promise a bold, wide-leg shape in a breathable fabric that makes them a must-have for spring and summer weather. They feature a fashionable, slightly cropped length that’s perfect for sunny days, and the looser fit ensures they flatter your curves without being restrictive.

Made from linen that’s sure to leave you looking and feeling cool in warmer temperatures, these trousers also come armed with those oh-so-important pockets to keep your essentials close to hand. They offer a slimmer fit around the hips and waistline that is sure to keep them in place and provide a comfortable, breathable fit that still provides a flattering silhouette.

Normally retailing for £98, these trousers are currently on offer for the reduced price of £83 while this deal lasts. That said, you’ll need to move quickly as they’re already selling fast and this sale won’t last forever.

Among the hundreds of shoppers who have secured their desired size and shade of these beauties, plenty have left their glowing reviews. One 5-star rater beams: “I ordered size 14 which was a perfect fit. Can be worn as smart or casual and agree with earlier review that they are cut really well. I bought the camel coloured full length recently but now wish I had bought those in the cropped! I am sure I will get lots of wear from these for years to come! “

Another satisfied shopper says: “I love the cut of these trousers. I bought them as I already have the Westbourne trousers but the cropped are different insofar as the leg width at the hem is slightly narrower. I actually like this as they’re cropped and I think they look smarter than wide legs. I bought the navy in a size 10 regular as I didn’t want them too cropped. I’m 5’3 and they sit just above the ankle. They fit perfectly. So much so, I’ve ordered another pair in oatmeal! I usually wear a size 8 in jeans or anything with an elasticated waist but as these are a fixed waist and they’ll be worn in the summer I opted for the 10. “

And a third chimes in: “Bought the navy for spring/summer and not disappointed. These are really lovely, good quality linen and they hang beautifully. In my own opinion, they come up a little smaller than other Boden trousers. I’ve recently ordered several in size 8, but have had to go up to a 10 in these. But can’t wait to wear them! “

This buyer also beams: “I am a 12/14 with slim legs but apple torso and nearly ordered the 14 because of the fact that there was no elastic panel in the back, not any give in the fabric. But the 12 fits perfectly. Boden have allowed for some tummy. The fabric feels like good quality. It is a really useful piece for summer wardrobe. “

Annie Macaulay Introduces Self As Single Amid Marriage Split Drama

Annie Macaulay, the estranged wife of Nigerian music icon, Innocent ‘2Baba’ Idibia, publicly confirmed her split from the singer during the 17th edition of the Headies Awards, held on Sunday night in Lagos.

Taking the stage alongside Farooq Oreagba, the much-admired “King of Steeze” from the 2024 Ojude Oba Festival, Macaulay introduced herself with her maiden name, subtly but firmly affirming her new status.

Macaulay, a mother of two, was invited to present the award for Best Afrobeats Singer.

While introducing herself, she initially seemed poised to use ‘Idibia,’ but quickly corrected herself, choosing instead to embrace her maiden name — a move that sparked widespread discussion on social media.

“My name is Annie Idi—oh sorry, Annie Macaulay. Hey, single ladies! ” she declared to loud cheers from the audience at the Landmark Event Centre, Lekki.

Her announcement came as the Headies Awards, themed ‘Back to Base,’ returned to Nigeria after a two-year stint in the United States. The ceremony was hosted by Nollywood actress and media personality, Nancy Isime.

Her bold statement follows months of speculation after 2Baba announced their separation in January 2025.

Controversial Split

In a shocking Instagram post, the 49-year-old music star confirmed the end of their 12-year marriage, paving the way for his relationship with Edo State lawmaker, Natasha Osawaru.

Sixteen days after announcing the split, 2Baba proposed to Ms Osawaru, unveiling her as his fiancée on the eve of Valentine’s Day.

Recently, he introduced her to his mother, Mrs Rose Idibia, fuelling further speculation about an impending wedding.

This development comes against the backdrop of a period earlier this year when 2Baba was declared missing. In February, the Idibia family petitioned the Department of State Services (DSS), claiming the singer had been missing since February 10 after leaving his residence in lounge wear and failing to return.

However, in a now-viral video, 2Baba was seen reunited with his mother and other relatives, enjoying lively family moments. Natasha Osawaru was also present in the video, suggesting Mrs Idibia has now consented to their relationship.

This marks a notable shift, as in February, Mrs Idibia had publicly pleaded with Natasha to “leave her son alone” and “remove the beads you placed on his hands and neck,” alleging that 2Baba was not in his right senses.

Natasha defended herself at the time, claiming the beads were symbols of her family’s royalty.

Since then, Natasha has updated her Instagram bio to include 2Baba’s surname, sparking fresh rumours that the pair may have held a private traditional marriage ceremony last week.

Meanwhile, Annie has shifted focus to her personal and professional growth.

In March, after much anticipation, she returned to social media following a brief hiatus, deleting all previous posts and updating her Instagram handle to reflect her full maiden name, “Annie Uwana Macaulay,” notably dropping ‘Idibia’.

During a BBC Pidgin interview on the Headies red carpet, the 40-year-old actress and model shared her current focus: her children and her forthcoming media projects. She further revealed her plans to launch her own platform, Annie Macaulay TV.

Background

Annie and 2Baba’s relationship spans over two decades, having met in 1999 and transitioning from friendship into romance. Annie gained widespread recognition in 2004 when she featured in the singer’s iconic ‘African Queen’ music video.

The couple welcomed their first daughter, Isabella, in 2008. In 2012, 2Baba proposed on Valentine’s Day, leading to a private wedding later that year.

Their grand white wedding took place in Dubai on 23 March 2013, and they welcomed their second daughter, Olivia, in 2014.

Their marriage, though celebrated, was often rocked by challenges, largely due to 2Baba’s previous relationship with Pero Adeniyi, with whom he shares three children. Despite public controversies, the couple renewed their vows in 2022 to mark their 10th anniversary.
