Amanda Holden has made it known that her parents’ home is currently on the market and that they are looking to downsize. The 54-year-old TV personality posted an Instagram alert yesterday, drawing attention to the stunning Cornwall home.

She shared a link to the Rightmove advertisement and said, “Parents are downsizing.” She added, “They are] selling their beautiful home in Cornwall,” in a previous post.

The four-bedroom property is ideally situated close to the coast of North Cornwall and picturesque locations like Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor. It has historic features, beautiful wood floors, and fireplaces, according to the sellers, making it a “true rural gem.”

“Tucked away in a tranquil setting with breathtaking countryside and coastal views, this charming Grade II listed detached Cornish cottage, believed to have built around the turn of the 18th century, is a true rural gem,” the listing reads, according to the Mirror.

An estate agent examines the property’s fascinating history while a clip features panoramic shots of Hersham, Bude. They said, “I have a real treat for you today, I’m looking forward to showing you the video of this gorgeous Grade II listed cottage behind me called Hersham Carpentry.”

“It’s where all the hand carts were built in the area in the past,” said one historian. Four cozy bedrooms, two bathrooms, two reception areas, and a welcoming kitchen/breakfast area are all located in the detached thatched roof house.

Additionally, three annexes have a documented history of holiday letting income that dates back more than ten years. The third floor, which includes a living room, kitchen, and conservatory, has two single-storey annexes, while the third has two.

Future owners can enjoy the “sweeping cottage gardens,” which have tranquil patio areas and three panoramic viewpoints with sea views. Additionally, Rightmove points to a particularly large driveway with room for eight vehicles.

Amanda’s family has reportedly stated in response to the advertisement that they are “saddened to leave this lovely home we have lived in for over 22 years.” We’ll miss the beautiful vistas and spectacular sunsets from various viewpoints in our gardens as they come early in the morning.

Curtis Pritchard spotted Ekin-Su relationship ‘red flag’ as reason for split revealed

Curtis Pritchard and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu have ended their romance just months after meeting on Love Island: All Stars – with the majority of the couples who reached the final no longer together

The “real reason” Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard called time on their romance has been revealed. The Turkish actress announced her split from Curtis last week, just a short while after the duo sizzled on Love Island: All Stars.

The rumour mill went into overdrive as the pair hadn’t been seen together on social media, leading to Ekin-Su confirming the whispers that they were parting ways to focus on “focusing on navigating this transition”.

In a heartfelt statement, Ekin-Su expressed their mutual decision to “go [their] separate ways”, describing it as a “tough decision” without disclosing the reasons behind their separation. Curtis confirmed the break-up with his own post shortly after Ekin-Su’s announcement.

It’s now been revealed just why the former couple parted ways. “They weren’t arguing all the time – it just fizzled out. They re not on bad terms and they respect each other, but the spark had gone,” a source claims. “They know they can’t give each other what they need right now – it’s sad, but it’s also very grown-up of them.”

However, the source adds to Heat! magazine that “Curtis would’ve tried to make it work” but Ekin-Su “checks out so easily”. They claim the 2022 Love Island winner “mentally moved on weeks before the end” as Curtis was “trying to plan things together”. The professional dancer apparently saw Ekin-Su distancing herself as “a red flag”. The Mirror has approached both stars for comment.

In a heartfelt statement announcing their split last week, Ekin-Su wrote: “I wanted to share that Curtis and I have decided to go our separate ways. It’s been a really tough decision, but one made with a lot of love and respect for one another.”

She continued, “He’s an incredible person and I’ll always cherish the memories we made both in and out of the villa. Thank you all so much for the love and support over the past few months. We’re both focusing on navigating this transition and would really appreciate privacy during this time. Love always, Ekin-Su xX.”

This revelation follows last week’s buzz when Curtis was spotted flying solo at the star-studded Market Place St. Paul’s VIP launch party, and Ekin-Su conspicuously omitted any mention of Curtis when probed about her romantic life in a recent interview.

Speaking previously about her views on romance, she shared: “Love, for me, is a deep bond, trust and being able to be completely yourself with someone… Love enables both individual development and growth together. I find peaceful, safe and unexpected love valuable. This is exactly the definition of love for me.”

The news of Ekin-Su’s break-up with Curtis follows hot on the heels of Love Island champions Casey O’Gorman and Gabby Allen calling time on their relationship. Releasing a joint statement, they announced: “After much thoughtful consideration, Gabby and Casey have decided to go their separate ways romantically. This decision was mutual, and they both remain on good terms as friends with a shared respect for each other.”

With the dust settling from the show, only two couples from the final, Grace Jackson and Luca Bish, along with Elma Pazar and Sammy Root, are still thought to be an item three months after the finale aired.

Meanwhile, Omar Nyame and Catherine Agbaje have parted ways shortly after leaving the sun-soaked locale of the South African villa, with insiders suggesting that they never made it to becoming an official couple and that their love story had naturally come to an end.

EastEnders star shows off ‘skinny minny’ weight loss after diet change

The former BBC soap star looked almost unrecognisable in the social media post

An ex-EastEnders star has said that making one significant life change has helped her feel like herself again. This lifestyle adjustment may help others lose weight and reduce their risk of serious health problems like heart and liver disease.

Lorraine Stanley, known best for her role on EastEnders as Karen Taylor between 2017 and 2024, posted a picture on her Instagram feed from an event last night (June 2). In it, she can be seen wearing a kaftan she bought in Barcelona airport for “less than £30”. She added: “[This is the] first time I’ve worn it, I love it! Thanks for all the beautiful comments.”

The 48-year-old received a wave of positive comments on how well she looked, including her former EastEnders co-star Diane Parish, known for playing Denise Fox, who commented: “You look incredible!” And James Bye, who played Martin Fowler until recently in the soap, posted: “Look at you skinny minny!”

Smooth Radio presenter Angie Greaves wrote: “You look amazing!” Lorraine responded: “Thank you! I feel like myself again!” Another commenter put: “You look absolutely stunning!” And, a third fan told Lorraine: “You have great style and look so happy!”

According to reports, Lorraine managed to achieve her five-stone weight loss since leaving the soap with help from a gastric sleeve operation. But another lifestyle change has also contributed to the mum-of-one’s new lease of life.

She’s banished alcohol from her diet and has swapped booze for non-alcoholic options. Taking to her Instagram story to upload the same image posted onto her main feed, she added: “I’m five months sober and still had a good night dancing! #Sobriety.”

Lorraine publicly shared her journey toward sobriety. She has said that being sober has not stopped her from having fun and enjoying social events.

What can avoiding alcohol do for your health and weight?

According to Drinkaware, cutting out alcohol completely has many health benefits. These include reducing blood pressure and improving sleep in the short term, as well as many other important, longer-term health benefits.

Cutting alcohol from your life reduces the risk of developing serious alcohol-related diseases. Giving up drinking could help your liver and should reduce the chances of developing liver disease, as long hasn’thasn’t already been irreversibly damaged.

Drinkaware also claims that stopping your alcohol intake could lower the risk of:

  • Heart disease, stroke and high blood pressure
  • Liver disease
  • Sexual dysfunction
  • Gut problems

If you’re overweight and regularly drink alcohol, you will likely find that you lose weight if you stop drinking. And, not drinking at all will make it easier to maintain a healthy weight.

Alcoholic drinks contain lots of ‘empty’ calories, Drinkaware says, meaning your body doesn’t get any nutritional value from alcohol. Drinkaware gave the example that “a typical pint of lager or a large glass of wine contains the same number of calories as more than half a cheeseburger”.
