She’s one of the UK’s most-loved actresses after appearing on our screens for the last 18 years and now Suranne Jones has opened up about aging and why refuses to get Botox injections.

The 47-year-old has admitted she wouldn’t be open to getting Botox, even if it was for a role but has considered other non-surgical treatments. Speaking to Andy Goldstein and Lisa Snowdon on the We’re Not Getting Any Younger podcast, she explained: “I don’t think I’ll ever do Botox because I’m too frightened. It’ll be me that it goes wrong for.

“But I would do Morpheus8,” I said. I’ve completed a resume. But that’s about all I can handle. It’s like drinking only a drink of water with Profhilo.

She continued, “I will dabble, but I’m also a little scared.” Additionally, as we age, I can get all the jobs. And I’ll just play the Nanas, which I’m content to do.

A high concentration of hyaluronic acid is used to hydrate and firm the skin while Morpheus8 is a treatment that uses microneedling and radiofrequency energy to stimulate new collagen and tighten the skin.

Her comments come as the former Coronation Street actress has starred in Netflix’s hit thriller series Hostage, which released on Netflix on August 21. She plays fictional British Prime Minister Abigail Dalton in the five-part series on the streaming platform.

The political thriller features Dalton being threatened with murder unless she steps down as president as a result of her husband’s abduction while he works abroad.

As both women prepare for difficult negotiations, adding layers of complexity and political maneuvering, French President Vivienne Toussaint’s (Julie Delpy) visit adds to the kidnapping.

The critically acclaimed actress had to consult with numerous female politicians before fully researching and writing the character.

Matt Charman, the director of Hostage, outlined some of the research that Jones and the lead actor did for the part.

He stated, “We spoke to a lot of female politicians, and what she didn’t say is what she didn’t know.”

Suranne addressed leaders and prime ministers who were “absolutely wonderful” and expressed their disapproval, saying, “It’s how knackered you are at the end of the day. How much reading must you accomplish. How difficult it is to see your friends. You must set up these appointments months in advance.

He continued, “We spoke to a few politicians with kids, and the thing they said was that their children always felt their guilt.”

Imagine being someone’s son or daughter of a cabinet member and having people post videos, scare you, or send things directly to you. It’s always around what the kids have to give up, how hard it was for the kids, and how social media has evolved into this.

Most politicians are sick of hearing that, according to them. Although I’m resilient enough to endure it, my children attend school, which is terrible for them.

The series also stars Corey Mylchreest, Ashley Thomas, and Lucian Msamati, an incredible cast.

Netflix currently has Hostage available for streaming.

Katie Price proudly celebrated a milestone with daughter Princess by giving her her first cocktail at the age of 18!

After feeling left out in the cold following a ‘ban’ from Princess’ 18th party and being excluded from her debut ITV reality show, Katie and her teen have put the drama behind them.

Katie, 47, opened up about a recent day out in London with her eldest daughter, revealing how she spent money on matching drinks for them while on a girls’ shopping trip when she spoke on a new episode of her podcast.

Katie described their day in detail as “a good time. Right away, I’ll order you a Pornstar Martini at age 18; I said, “Once you’re 18 I’ll order you one.”

We visited the Selfridges restaurant by the shoe, which I believe is French or perhaps Italian.

She orders what we ordered, just like I did. And when I said, “Yes, you’re 18 years old, you can order a Pornstar Martini now,” we had the Pornstar Martini.

Katie continued, “On the side, she had a coke, and I had water.”

It’s because I could now legally go “there you go Princess,” Katie told Sophie, her sister, that she was happy they could share that moment with. “

In a new interview this weekend, Peter refused to speak about his fallout with Katie after hitting out at his ex-wife on social media. Speaking to the Telegraph about his ‘saintly’ image, Peter said: “Well, look, nobody’s perfect. No one’s perfect in this world. Everyone makes mistakes. But you get the measure of me by meeting me.”

He continued, “You’ll either think I’m too talkative and annoying, or you’ll think he’s okay, he’s harmless.

Peter criticised Katie earlier this month with a surprisingly brief statement about her.

On a 2019 family court order that placed their two children under his care, he claimed he wanted to “set the record straight.”

He wrote, “Unfortunately, I haven’t yet addressed the many lies and baseless accusations I have. In the upcoming months, those will now be addressed.

I’m trying my best to be the best I can,” she wrote in a response to “fake sinners who play the victim.”

While Princess defended her mother’s decision to leave her ITV show, saying, “Really, there was no decision. However, he was more involved because I’m currently living with him. Never did I say I didn’t want her in it, which was false.

Inside Konnie Huq’s very simple life – no phone and no new clothes in 20 years

Back in the noughties, the former Blue Peter presenter was everywhere on television, but now that he has taken a backseat in the showbiz business world, Konnie Huq seems to enjoy living in simplicity. He hasn’t had a phone and refused to shop for clothes in over 20 years.

After getting her big break as a presenter on Blue Peter back in 1997, Konnie Huq was one of the most viable hosts in the UK, appearing on several big television shows in the noughties.

She then continued hosting programs like Your News, UK School Games, The Xtra Factor, and Shocked Britain after she left her eleven-year stint as host of the children’s entertainment program in 2008.

She also became a children’s author in 2020 and has since written four books, including Cookie and the Most Annoying Boy, Cookie and the Most Annoying Girl, Fearless Fairy Tales, and Cookie and the Most Mysterious Mystery in the World.

However, after becoming a mother to her two sons Covey and Huxley with husband Charlie Brooker, the 50-year-old made a conscious decision to reduce her television commitments so she focus on her family life. Let’s take a look at her simpler life, which includes not buying a new phone and not buying any new clothes in two decades…

Legends of Blue Peter reveal little-known facts about the famous elephant blunder.

Konnie Huq, the ex-Blue Peter actor, demands that BBC1 resume programming for kids’ afternoons.

No brand-new smartphones

Konnie recently revealed she’s never purchased a new phone and relies on husband Charlie to give her his hand-me-downs when he upgrades to a better model. She told MailOnline: “My phone is always like my husband’s old phone, and then my son has got my old phone.

I never get a new phone; I just will get my husband’s cast-offs, they say, “So it just gets handed down and handed down essentially.” “

It appears that Black Mirror creator Charlie is quite the opposite to his wife as he loves to get the newest phones. She continued: “He is quite techie and will often be like, “oh 16GB isn’t good enough for me, it doesn’t hold everything. I need 32GB,” whereas I’m sort of none the wiser’.”

Despite being a known face, the mum-of-two doesn’t use social media and likens her technology habits to being “totally retro” as she prefers to speak on the phone than text.

In 20 years, there haven’t been any new clothes.

Konnie previously stated that she favors a more sustainable lifestyle and that she dislikes purchasing new clothing.

She stated, “I don’t buy things because I’m a little bit anti-consumerist.” You get clothes for the job regardless of whether I haven’t bought anything in, say, the last 20 years.

“The more at ease I feel in my own skin the older I get.” So I’d rather be completely unfashionable now, but I’m known for wearing clothes that people don’t like. I’m much happier when I choose to decline.

She and other authors released a free eBook about the climate crisis in the UK in 2024, which is available to all primary schools in the country. The book contains illustrations, poems, and stories about a variety of environmental-related topics, including how to dress in a hurry and calculate our carbon footprint.

Family life

Konnie made the decision to consciously step back after becoming a mother, despite having the longest-running female Blue Peter presenter ever and being at the height of her career.

She previously recalled trying to juggle her work commitments with having her first child. Konnie told BBC News in 2019: “I did this show for Sky called King of the Nerds, which was a reality show looking for the world’s biggest nerd, essentially, celebrating the geek, which is also what I’m about.

“But I do remember having a baby,” I said. And I believed I was capable of doing it all. However, Chelmsford was where it was being filmed. I therefore had to leave for the night because I was pregnant. And it also meant that I would be picked up from my house before the baby woke up, depart from London for Chelmsford at 5:30 a.m., have milk, board the motorway, and film the scene.

“And I’d present some difficulties, and I’d agree to wrap up because I’d have a half-hour in which to miss rush hour.” And I’d occasionally be exploding with milk because you have to feed the baby all day.

After the show’s final production was over, Konnie claimed she had consciously taken a step back and wanted to spend time being a mother because their parents “don’t come back” as they do now.

Olivia Attwood breaks silence on claims marriage is in trouble after Pete Wicks photos

According to Olivia Attwood, her marriage to football player Bradley Dack is in jeopardy.

After leaving Bradley at home, the ITV1 is reportedly “in the doghouse” after she took a vacation in Ibiza with close friend Pete Wicks. Before kicking off their Kiss FM show with stonking hangovers, Olivia, 34, and Pete, 36, were seen partying and back to basics at the notorious Ocean Beach club.

Fans began to question Olivia’s bikini-clad husband’s reactions to the photos of her enjoying some downtime with Pete on a boat. Bradley’s Gillingham FC teammates reportedly teased him in the dressing room by images of his wife cuddling the reality star, causing him to become ‘livid’.

Olivia has been furious over rumors that her marriage is in trouble. Olivia responded, “Don’t be, I’m afraid for your marriage,” after being told by a fan, “I’m afraid for your marriage.” Concern your own; worry about it.

Bradley is receiving a lot of criticism for his teammates’ photos, an insider told The Sun on Friday. They are aware that Brad and Liv are happily married, but they couldn’t stop talking about what Liv has been up to over the holidays.

Bradley tried to laugh it off, but he is inside fuming.

After meeting at an awards ceremony ten years ago, Pete and Olivia have since forged a friendship. They affectionately refer to one another as “work wife” and “work husband” when they begin a joint radio show on Kiss FM this year.

Olivia and Pete are both known for making fun of each other, with Pete making fun of Olivia about her cosmetic surgery while Olivia makes fun of the former TOWIE star’s unlucky relationship.

We might disagree on some issues, Pete said when describing their new collaborative endeavor this year. And I find everyone obnoxious.

Olivia cautioned fans against worrying about their own romantic relationships.

Olivia continued, “He’s the only straight man I can tolerate for a long time, besides my husband.”

“I believe that our perceptions are remarkably similar. Although they might assume that Pete isn’t very deep, he is one of the most sincere people I know. He has your back if he’s your friend. Additionally, he works incredibly hard. She continued, “We take it really seriously when it comes to our work, even though we take the mick and we both love a party.”

Pete joked that Sam Thompson, Pete’s other best friend, is “petrified” of Olivia.

‘I partied like Ibiza Final Boss in iconic VIP nightclub – and one thing blew my mind’

I broke my Ibiza virginity in style at the renowned Pacha nightclub, writes Jamie Roberts, and it will be remembered for a number of reasons.

Baddest Behaviour at Pacha Ibiza(Image: THE MEDIA NANNY)

The brand Pacha is a globally recognised name and rightly so. It is widely known as being the iconic, glamorous, and historic nightclub that helped create the legendary dance culture on Ibiza 52 years ago.

I knew I had to take advantage of the summertime party VIP opportunity. At the age of 38, I was wondering if my more “chilled” outlook on these nights would allow me to travel the distance until the 6am curfew. Let’s face it, I’ve recently discovered that my preferred day of work is the beginning of the day rather than the sipping of tequila by thousands of revelers.

But, I knew I had to throw myself into the legend that is Pacha in full force as Dutch DJ Mau P headlined his fantastic Baddest Behaviour residency. Unlike some of the party island veterans, this may well have turned out to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me. And it’s safe to say that from the outset, the labyrinth that is Pacha Ibiza dragged me fully into its core.

From the decks, Mau P was visible.

It was obvious at first that the iconic spot isn’t just relying on its name and hoping legends of the past would keep it afloat. One devoted employee, who proudly shared that he had worked for the company for over 40 years, admitted that his former office space is now an outdoor toilet as the space continues to evolve with the changes of society as I was shown around at the beginning of the night.

He explained how Pacha is determined to stay relevant and improve the experience by blaming the smoking ban and the Covid pandemic for the need to grow. The venue then made the decision to develop additional high-end boutiques for its eager revelers. However, despite expanding, the space still radiates a distinctive vibe every time.

The Paradiso rooftop bar deserves a special mention. Before midnight, anyone with a Pacha ticket can enter this area, which is a welcome addition for those looking for a quiet beverage before dancing until early in the night.

From both the Paradiso bar and the Pacha Family outside location, it became obvious that the venue was concentrating on enhanced comfort with its open-top forest-like feel.

However, thanks to an electronically tagged wristband, there were twists and turns once inside the venue that created new worlds. The space was significantly more available thanks to the exclusive Ricardo’s room, the special section floating above and behind the DJ booth, and the DJ booth’s exclusive space. You could also take the main floor and experience the busier vibe under the strobe lights and smoke cannons if you want to truly soak up the Pacha feel.

With its bolder than ever lighting and 360-degree immersive visuals, it is obvious that the club is proud to create a buzz. Despite the lavish amenities at the Pacha club and its impressive VIP, the apparent openness of smoking persisted throughout. As a non-smoker, this brought me back to my earlier, more intense partying days from 2005, just before the smoking ban became effective.

Even though the smoking ban has led to some opulent outdoor elements, it appeared that some private areas had a much more relaxed attitude.

But is Pacha Ibiza VIP a good investment? I’d say yes to this aging father-of-one, and I’m confident that those of all ages will benefit from fully experiencing one of the world’s most famous spots.

As for the Ibiza Final Boss, long may he enjoy his newfound fame and VIP treatment. He is lucky enough to be living his best life this summer – something I would also certainly do if anyone was to film this ginger Mr Muscle character-of-old lookalike!
