Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s romance appears to have reached a new level as the pair packed on the PDA during a romantic day out on a yacht
Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau are no longer shying away from their romance. In recent months, the pop star and former Prime Minister of Canada have been at the centre of speculation after they were spotted out for dinner with each other.
But while both attempted to brush off any speculation that they were dating one another, it appears that they’re no longer hiding their feelings. The pair have been seen cuddling each other, with Justin placing his hand on bikini-clad Katy’s bum while enjoying a day out on a luxury yacht.
Speculation about their relationship started in June when they were seen out on a date together in Montreal. But since then, they have kept things down low, until their outing on a yacht, in the Santa Barbara Channel, California, at the end of last month.
The yacht, Caravelle, belongs to Katy Perry, according to local residents on a Facebook group, who say it is kept at a nearby marina. Local whale watchers caught the couple while they were on a whale-spotting charter.
An onlooker said: “She pulled up her boat next to a small public whale-watching boat, then they started making out. I didn’t realize who she was with until I saw the tattoos on the guy’s arm, and I immediately realized it was Justin Trudeau.”
Katy and Orlando Bloom ended their nine-year relationship in June 2015, and Justin Trudeau separated from his wife, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, in 2023.
Fans have been left convinced Charli XCX made a veiled attack on Taylor Swift during her Saturday Night Live performance stepping out in a Kansas City T-shirt

Fans believed Charli XCX’s Kansas City t-shirt was aimed at Taylor Swift’s fiance
The alleged feud between Charli XCX and Taylor Swift has been rumbling in the background for some time, with their fans at loggerheads as recently as last year. This comes after the Brat hitmaker was in line to reach the number one spot in the charts until Taylor, 35, decided at the last minute to re-release her song, The Tortured Poets Department.
And now, fans are speculating whether Charli XCX made a veiled dig at Taylor during her impromptu appearance on Saturday Night Live. The 33-year-old singer joined artist Role Model as he performed his hit song Sally, When the Wine Runs Out.
During his performance, he shouted out, “where’s my Sally tonight?” And it was at this point the singer made her way out on to the stage wearing a black mini skirt and a matching t-shirt that read “Max’s Kansas City.”

And so now, fans have been left wondering if her top was in reference to Taylor’s fiancé Travis Kelce who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs. This comes after many believed that Taylor’s song Actually Romantic from her The Life of a Showgirl album, was a diss track aimed at the Brat star.
Taking to social media one person wrote: “Charli and Role Model just owned SNL!” Another said Taylor would be “screaming into her pillows”, following Charli’s cameo appearance.
While speculation of a re-ignited feud was circulating the internet, a few well-informed fans set the record straight. One person said: “Role Model’s 2024 album is called Kansas Anymore and the shirt actually references a bar at 213 Park Ave in NYC.”
Meanwhile another person simply posted a picture of Role Model wearing the exact same t-shirt during a separate segment of the show.
But it seemed that some were still keen on an ongoing feud. Another person took to X and said: “No one cares that it’s his merch. She knew exactly wtf she was doing and how she could used it as shade but also play it off if brought up. It’s weird fan behavior.”
It wasn’t that long ago Taylor was singing Cahrli XCX’s praises. And Charli was forced to take to TikTok and clear up rumours that there were diss tracks on her Brat album.
She said at the time: “I’m seeing online that some people think there are diss tracks on Brat. I just wanted to come on here and clarify that there aren’t. he tracks in question aren’t diss tracks, they’re really just about how it’s so complicated being an artist, especially a female artist, where you are pitted against your peers but also expected to be best friends with every single person constantly, and if you’re not, you’re, like, deemed a bad feminist.”

She added: “And that, to me, is such an unrealistic expectation. So yeah, these songs are about as a woman, as an artist, some days you can feel on top of the world, some days you can feel unbelievably insecure.”
She continued: “Other days you can feel highly competitive, some days you can feel like literal trash, and it’s really emotional and complicated to deal with, and you’re not supposed to talk about it, but these songs do talk about it. And I’ll probably be chastised for that.”

Former Big Brother star Nicola McClean has revealed why her 13 year feud dubbed ‘pantsgate’ with housemate Denise Welch continues to rumble on as they still aren’t speaking

Nicola McClean has not spoken to Denise Welch since their Big Brother argument 13 years ago
Big Brother has become known for its legendary rows and the celebrity version of the show is certainly no different. And this is explains why the iconic fall out between Nicola McClean and Denise Welch is still a talking point 13 years later.
The feud, which played out on national television, saw Nicola jump to the defence of fellow housemate Karissa Shannon after Denise played a booze fuelled prank on her. Denise had tried to pull down Karissa’s trousers, which left the unbeknown housemate disrespected and upset, which sparked fury in Nicola.
Immediately, the former glamour model, 44, entered into a row with Denise which soon escalated into a war of words over their public image and a task which meant Denise lost the ability to receive a letter from home. And since that day the pair have not spoken.

In a chat with The Sun, Nicola explained: “I said ‘that’s completely unacceptable’ and she said ‘well they do it for a living’ and I said ‘that makes no difference, I’m a Page 3 girl, does it mean you can just get my boobs out? No, it doesn’t’ and that’s what I lost my sh*t about.”
She continued: “I couldn’t work out how we were saying it’s acceptable to pull down someone’s pants. Now if that was today, what do you think would have happened to Denise Welch? It p*ssed me off then and it still p*sses me off now that I was seen to be in the wrong. How can I be f**king wrong when you are pulling down someone’s trousers without their consent?”
The vocal TV star went on to explain the pair have “never made up” as she claimed Denise has “never apologised”. Nicola quipped that because she is a Virgo, she is “always right”.
The former glamour model added that she doesn’t argue with her husband or shout at her kids. Nicola explained that if she ever did argue with someone, “I probably am never going to speak to you again”.
Earlier this month, Denise found herself as the subject of conversation after her mobile phone started to ring live, leaving production in a state of panic. This comes after the Loose Women panel were engrossed in an emotional segment of the show where they were asked what they would tell their younger self.
At the time co-star Myleene Klass said: “I was not a cool kid, I was a really geeky kid and it’s so funny to see that because I spent so long trying to fit in…”
As she was finishing off her sentence, a phone could be heard going off in the background, which prompted Myleene to ask Denise if it was her. An embarrassed Denise immediately feared she would land herself in trouble, while the rest of the panel burst into laughter.

As Ashely Banjo prepares to host the 26th Pride of Britain Awards later this month, he reveals that as a father himself, some of the inspiring yet heartbreaking stories hit him hard. The 37-year-old joined long-time host Carol Vorderman back in 2021 for his first Awards as presenter, and says tries ‘to hold in’ his emotions on the night, but it’s not always easy.
Each year, he tells OK!, the Awards are supported by an array of celebrities from the worlds of stage and screen, as well as some high-profile members of the Royal Family. One of his standout memories is receiving a special phone call from none other than Prince Harry, who now lives in the US with Meghan Markle and their two children.

Ashley described the younger royal brother as “lovely”, adding: “He’s very supportive and he had really good things to say to me. The call was in a quite needed moment for me.”
Ashely shares his six-year-old daughter Rose, and five-year-old son Micah, with his ex partner Francesca Abbott, and says being a dad makes him “relate to situations in a completely different way”.
“It definitely makes you more emotional. I think, in general, having children does that to you. It changes your perspective and makes you more knowledgeable. You realise how fragile life can be and how deep your love is for your kids. It humbles you.”
Prince Harry was recently in the UK himself to attend another big date in the charity calendar, the annual WellChild Awards. The Duke has been a patron of the charity for 17 years, and his association is widely regarded as one of the areas in which he shines most brightly.
Just before the ceremony kicked off at the Royal Lancaster Hotel on 8 September, Harry delighted some of the children being recognised on the night by engaging in a balloon sword fight and graciously accepting gifts for his and Meghan’s children, Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four.
In one cute moment shared to the charity’s Instagram stories, Harry met with a young girl named Gwen, nine, who showed off her fancy trainers to the royal before engaging in the playful balloon battle.
The youngster also presented Harry with gifts Archie and Lilibet – purple football jersey, belonging to Brighton Hove & Albion team, with his children’s names and ages on them.

“Best gift ever, thank you so much,” Harry responded. “This is so cool, it’s going to make them so happy.”
Former EastEnders actress Cheryl Fergison has been forced to sell her personal items at a carboot sale in order to make ends meet after accountant left her ‘broke’

Former EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison became a national treasure among soap fans playing Heather Trott in the BBC soap. So you’d assume she has been living a comfortable life on the back of her earnings.
But sadly not. Cheryl, 60, was recently spotted at a carboot sale in Blackpool selling personal belongings for as little as 33 pence an item, after she was left penniless due to the unethical practices of her accountant.
According to the star, she believed the money she had been sending to her accountant was being used to pay off HMRC – but that wasn’t the case. Instead, he had been “pocketing” the money for himself, leaving her with a mountain of debt.

Dressed causally in a fleece jacket and a pair of black leggings, Cheryl found herself selling her wares alongside her devoted son, Alex Saddiqi. Despite finding herself battling hard times, fans of the actress flocked to her for a selfie.
Cheryl’s character was killed off in 2017 and has since found it difficult to land sustainable acting roles since her exit. In her autobiography, Behind The Scenes, the actress recalls the moment she found out she had been a victim of theft.
She wrote: “For five years, I paid him. For five years he pocketed the money and didn’t pay a single penny to HMRC. Everything I had built, saved and worked for was gone. I don’t use the word hate very often. It’s a heavy word, one you can’t always take back, but in this case, I meant it. I hated him.”
She continued: “Going broke when you’re famous is the worst, because everyone expects you to have lots of money. People assume that you’re minted. They don’t imagine you’re juggling overdrafts, maxed-out credit cards, payday loans and mountains of bills. But that was exactly where I found myself.”
The former TV star lives with her second husband Al-Jermoni in Blackpool who she married in 2011. Soon after the couple tied the knot, their life had already hit a curveball as he found it difficult to get a visa as a Moroccan national.
In an interview with OK! magazine she explained: “We try to keep our business private but yes financially it can be a strain to get these visas. But we’re here now, we’re in Blackpool – the Vegas of the north! – and we’re settled.”
Through steely determination, Cheryl has been doing her best to recover from her financial blows. In another chat with The Sun, she said she does not want to be judged for her current situation.
Cheryl explained: “My finances will take a long time to recover. Until I have steady work, I’m not rich or comfortable – I’m just surviving. I’ve been saying yes to everything for no money, but I need to start valuing my work and asking for fair pay. Even my agent insists on it. “

She added: “Still, I’ll never give in. I want to keep singing. If people criticise me for singing in small restaurants, so be it.’
At the end of the day, I’m an entertainer. Community has always been important to me, and I’ll perform no matter the crowd. If only two people show up, I don’t care – I’m still being paid, and I’ll still give it my all.”

Ozzy Osbourne’s wife and two of his children have unexpectedly showed up at a UK farm to see a pumpkin patch that 16 workers spent hours making to commemorate the rocker

Sharon Osbourne was comforted by her children at the mural
The family of the late rock legend Ozzy Osbourne have paid an emotional visit to a stunning pumpkin mural created in his honour. Sharon, Jack and Kelly Osbourne surprised visitors at Sunnyfields Farm in Totton, Hampshire, on Saturday evening as they arrived to see the spectacular tribute to the Black Sabbath frontman, which was made from more than 10,000 pumpkins and squashes.
The mural, which has been on display since October 4, was made in the likeness of Ozzy’s face. Workers crafted it from thousands of gourds in various shades of orange, yellow, and green.
It was created to honour the music icon, who died in July at the age of 76. Sharon had taken a step away from the spotlight following Ozzy’s death as she grieves her husband of more than 40 years.

The Osbourne family were greeted by the farm’s owners, Tom and Ian Nelson, who personally gave them a tour of the display. Sharon and Jack even hopped aboard a cherry picker to admire the artwork from above, while Kelly was joined by her fiancé, Slipknot’s Sid Wilson, and their son, Sidney.
Tom Nelson explained how Ozzy was chosen for this year’s design, saying: “Even though we think something is a good idea, it might not be, so we put it out to the public. So 70% of the people said ‘it’s got to be Ozzy this year.’ So we let the public decide.”
Sunnyfields Farm was founded by Tom’s parents in 1990, and has hosted its annual pumpkin display for a decade now. It earned a place in the record books in 2023 for the world’s largest mosaic made from cucurbits — the plant family that includes pumpkins and squashes.
This year’s artwork, which took 16 people over four hours to complete, will remain on display until the end of the month.
Ozzy, otherwise known as the Prince of Darkness, died on July 22 following years of health battles. His death certificate later confirmed he died from an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest brought on by a heart attack, coronary artery disease and complications related to Parkinson’s disease.
He had his wife, Sharon, and their children around him when he died. Just days before his death, Ozzy had been determined to make it to Villa Park in Birmingham for what would become his final performance.
After his death, tributes poured in for the rock star from fans and fellow musicians around the world. His daughter Kelly Osbourne shared a moving message online, writing: “I’ve sat down to write this a hundred times and still don’t know if the words will ever feel like enough…but from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
“The love, support, and beautiful messages I’ve received from so many of you have truly helped carry me through the hardest moment of my life.”
In August, thousands of fans lined the streets of Ozzy’s hometown, Birmingham, to pay their respects as his coffin passed through Broad Street.

Earlier in the week, Jack revealed Sharon is “OK but she’s not OK” following her husband’s death. And in a new interview, Jack added that “it’s ups and downs.” Jack explained to Rolling Stone that he is “bringing her back to LA” after flying to England for Sharon’s first birthday without Ozzy.
