Vicky McClure reveals surprising way she knew she was in love with husband

Vicky McClure, an actor, claims that something happened on their first date that led to their reconciliation that led to a “conned of the minds” relationship.

Vicky McClure claims that on one of their first dates, her husband Jonny took her on a “sausage cob” to prove her love.

The no nonsense Nottingham actor, is known for hit cop series Line Of Duty and Trigger Point, which is returning for a third series on ITV. Away from the cameras she married husband Jonny Owen, a writer and director, in August 2023.

Looking back Vicky said: “So when me and Jonny first met he took me for a sausage cob. And I was like, here we go. This is it. This is love. And then at the wedding night we didn’t have like a sit down meal.

Everyone was so happy because Jonny is Welsh, and we received sausage cobs and Welsh rarebits. It was simple: go and grab. There is no time to fuss around; get some food and return to the dance floor. So, yes, we kept things simple. Line your stomach with. “

The 42-year-old actress played DI Kate Fleming in the hit BBC crime drama Line Of Duty alongside actors Martin Compston and Adrian Dunbar and earlier this week admitted she had “no updates” about another possible series.

She continued, “When we did the sixth series of Line of Duty,” in a conversation with Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett on the Dish podcast. We shot in 2020. And so it is with Martin and Adey, who, you know, enjoy having a good social time while filming and all that kind of stuff that was lost.

We’d love to go back, if anything, just to make sure we can sort of feel like we’ve…had that again, as it goes without saying.

She also recalled that she was a young actor who was working on the 2008 film Filth and Wisdom, which also had Eugene Hütz and Holly Weston as stars. Juliette, who lived with her two flatmates, was played by Vincent as a pharmacy assistant.

She chose to purchase some clothing for the premiere but didn’t really understand what was happening, so she “just went to H&amp, M” and ended up wearing something on the red carpet.

Looking back she said: “I go to H&M, buy a dress that’s awful. And just got these big circles on it, with these brown saggy boots, leggings. Big silver hoops. You should Google it, it’s actually hilarious.

“And then everyone else, like Madonna looks banging, Eugene looks cool as a f***, and Holly looks fantastic, I’m just there like, “I just went to H&amp, M. ” These old baggy brown boots.

“But it was amazing, yes. I mean, I look back and say, “Wow, that was a moment.”

Love Island winner debuts new girlfriend months after shock split from co-star

Love Island winner Sammy Root, who rose to fame on the dating programme with Jess Harding, has ‘hard launched’ his new romance in a recent TikTok video

Love Island winner Sammy Root appeared in a video with his new girlfriend, Ella Burke, months after his shock split from Elma Pazar. Sammy, 24, who is known for his appearance on the ITV2 series with Jess Harding, found love with Elma when he appeared on the All Stars version of the show.

After heading home from the Love Island villa, the pair were welcomed back by their TOWIE castmates as fans watched their new relationship unfold on camera. However, a few months after getting together, they went their separate ways and their “raw and emotional” split was filmed for TOWIE over the summer.

In shock scenes, Sammy was seen telling Elma that he ‘would have done anything’ during an intense conversation during their split.

While their breakup seemed emotional, Sammy has seemingly moved on with Ella Burke, 23, and was seen in her recent TikTok video.

The video showed Ella discussing her love for a specific chocolate lava cake found in 7/11, which she became obsessed with while travelling in Thailand.

She brought a few packaged cakes back with her to heat up for herself as the two filmed a taste test video.

After heating up the cakes in the microwave, Ella and Sammy unwrapped the cake to ‘try at the same time’ as they stood in the kitchen.

Sammy said it was ‘really hot’ as Ella giggled while he struggled to cool it down. “Unbelievable but it’s very hot. I’ve got third degree burns in my mouth,” he joked as he went for another bite.

She wiped some chocolate from his mouth before he jokingly smiled to show the cake that was stuck over his teeth.

Fans immediately rushed to the comment to ask about their new relationship, with one user writing: “Soft launch,” and another posting: “Omg yes I’m here for this.”

“Oh damn hard launch,” one said while another confirmed the romance by posting: “About time, mum and dad.”

Earlier this summer, Sammy discussed his relationship with Elma with The Mirror, revealing: “It’s going well. We’re just doing our own thing, staying as private as we can. Once you’ve been in the public eye, you’ll always get people’s opinions so we keep ourselves to ourselves really.”

“I’m very good at blocking outside noise, I don’t let it get to me,” he said. “I think Elma probably lets it get to her a little bit more, which is why I’m here to bring her back down to Earth.”

Sammy continued: “You’re always going to have people saying stuff whatever you’re doing, that’s just part of life. You’ve got to get used to outside noise and block it out really.”

Inside Ellen DeGeneres’ £20million England home after fleeing Donald Trump’s US

Ellen Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres have no plans to return to the country after a more than 40-year career in broadcasting in the US.

Ellen DeGeneres has shared a rare glimpse into her personal life with wife Portia de Rossi.

The former talkshow host, 67, has posted candid photographs on Instagram taken inside her new home in the Cotswolds, an estate thought to be worth around £20million. The couple left the US last year following Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election.

Ellen was one of many stars – including Cardi B, Lili Reinhart and Christina Applegate – who hit out at Mr Trump supporters for their beliefs in the run-up to the election. She and her 52-year-old wife became so disappointed after the vote they expressed their desire to leave the country for a fresh life in England.

The couple has moved into the stunning pad, which has an open-floor plan in the kitchen, dining room, and living room, according to the Instagram photos. In the photos the comedian published, the comedian’s cartoons feature a large view of the lush green back garden.

Ellen and Portia, who got married in 2008, reportedly had the property’s ivory and matte mocha latte beige color scheme updated. Eight leather chairs, a glass coffee table, and a lounge chair all set against muted grey and ecru rugs complete the minimalistic design.

The modest approach contrasts hugely with Mr Trump’s style, as photographs show he has had part of his own home demolished in the US. The US President plans to have a lavish ballroom built at the White House.

However, Ellen’s more than 40-year career in the US surfaced as content to display her minimalistic aesthetic. The former actress claims in a video posted on Instagram that “Sport has brought so much joy into the house and it makes us so happy to see Kid play again, despite his very unique style of play.”

Sport and Kid are the couple’s dogs, seen chasing each other in the footage. There are animals everywhere too, as the estate is home to Ellen and Portia’s horses, chickens and wandering sheep which help cut the grass in the rural Cotswolds. The area is popular with celebrities looking to avoid the hustle and bustle of London.”

Ellen recently stated, “We knew that Portia couldn’t live without her horses,” when we made the decision to live here permanently. We needed a place to house them with a stable and pastures.

Hundreds of anti-immigrant protesters burn vehicle, attack police in Dublin

At least 1, 000 protesters have clashed with police in southwest Dublin, throwing bottles and fireworks at the police during anti-immigration demonstrations sparked by alleged assault on a young girl.

After a report that a 26-year-old man had sexually assaulted a 10-year-old girl on the grounds of the Citywest Hotel in Saggart, southwest of the Irish capital, protesters came out in droves.

The unnamed man was charged with the sexual assault after showing up in court on Tuesday.

The man, who requested a Romanian interpreter in court, was an asylum seeker, according to local media. His ethnicity has not been confirmed by the police.

At the time of the incident, the young girl reportedly had the state’s care. The girl “absconded” while traveling to the city center, according to Tusla, Ireland’s child and family agency, and was later reported missing.

Anti-immigrant protesters threw fireworks at police, carried signs that read “Irish lives matter,” and chanted “Get them out” during the demonstrations that were held on Tuesday near the hotel grounds.

According to the news agency AFP, officers reportedly lit up a police van as they reportedly charged at protesters with pepper spray before scunning them from the hotel complex.

In response to the protests, Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan remarked, “The weaponizing of a crime by those who wish to sow dissent in our society is not unexpected.” This is inadmissible, and it will lead to a harsh response.

Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin earlier stated that the events were “extremely serious and very, very grave” and that they were “extremely serious and very, very grave.”

The demonstrations on Tuesday follow riots that broke out in Dublin’s central district in November 2023 after three children were hurt in a knife attack outside a school. Police at the time identified the suspect as an Algerian man in his 50s.

Following the stabbing, torching vehicles, and attacking riot police, a far-right mob of at least 100 people invaded Dublin’s streets. Some had their faces covered and some had metal bars on them.

More than 400 police, many of whom were dressed as riots, were dispatched to halt the unrest, according to police, who claimed it was “caused by a small group of thugs.” Following the rampage, at least 34 people were detained.

Ireland and the United Kingdom have recently seen rising anti-immigration sentiment, despite the country’s unique lack of far-right members of parliament. In June, anti-immigration protests erupted in Northern Ireland and erupted into police clashes.

When two Romanian 14-year-old boys were detained on suspicion of sexually assaulting a teenage girl, the protests started in Ballymena, a town of about 31 000 people, 40 kilometers (25 miles) northwest of Belfast.
