The actor is reportedly in the early stages of casting for the popular Channel 4 program.

Nigella Lawson is reportedly set to replace Dame Prue Leith as judge on The Great British Bake Off. According to reports, the star is in the final stages of discussions following Prue’s announcement today that she’d be leaving the show after nine years. It’s thought Nigella will join Paul Hollywood when filming starts for the new series in April.

Nigella’s last TV appearance in the UK was in Nigella’s Cook, Eat, Repeat on BBC Two in 2020. Since then she has judged on MasterChef Australia and fronted some Christmas specials. According to a source, bosses are confident she’ll be a “sure-fire hit” when she joins the baking show.

According to the source, “Contract discussions are in the final stages, and Nigella will be heating up the famous tent soon.” The source added to The Sun: Nigella is well-known around the world. With all of her work stuffed with the funnies and sexist patter that are associated with Bake Off, she has the cheeky banter down to a tee.

Dame Prue Leith made her exit today in a statement. The 85-year-old, who evaluates the baker’s creations alongside Paul Hollywood, who has been a part of the program since its beginning, is a fan favorite but is now looking forward to taking some time off. She intends to spend her summer in her garden rather than the sweltering Bake Off tent.

Prue shared photos of her time on the program on Instagram, including a photo of herself and Paul posing with hosts Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding. After nine series and judging more than 400 challenges, she then stated, “I’ve decided to step down as The Great British Bake Off judge.”

“Bake Off has been a wonderful part of my life for the past nine years, and I’m confident that I’ll miss working with my fellow judge Paul, Alison, and Noel, as well as the Love Productions and Channel 4 crew.” But now, for the love of my life (I’m 86), it seems appropriate to take a step back! I’d like to do a lot of things, not the least of which is spending the summers outside enjoying my garden.

I’m confident that anyone who joins the team will enjoy it just as much as I do. She wrote as she finished the announcement, “I feel very lucky to have been a part of it. Fans expressed their happiness when one wrote, “Ahhh, sorry to miss you Prue!” I appreciate all the love.

Love Productions, the creator of the hit program, thanked Prue for being a brilliant Bake Off judge and a beloved presence in the tent for almost ten years. Prue will always have a piece of the Bake Off’s heart, from her sincere knowledge and support of the bakers to her ability to drop innocent innuendos that bring the audience home and the tent to tears of laughter.

Jess Harding’s actions on Wednesday’s episode of the ITV2 dating show caused confusion for viewers of Love Island: All Stars, where she apologized to Charlie and told Tommy off.

Love Island: All Stars fans were left confused when Jess Harding apologised to Charlie Frederick over their love triangle drama. The reality star, 31, is back in the villa looking for love after previously winning the 2023 edition of the hit ITV2 dating reality show.

Over the last few days, fans have watched as Charlie started up a romance with Millie Court but then shared a kiss with Jess. It seemed as if Jess had been expecting Charlie to couple up with her, but he chose Millie. Jess was then left furious with Tommy, despite his decision to couple up with her.

On Wednesday’s episode, she raged at Tommy: “It’s publicly shaming and I’m not gonna lie, it’s so f******* rude. The whole thing. I’m standing up there on my own and you’re throwing shade at me and you made me look like an absolute fool, darling!”

Tommy pleaded, “You’ve been ghosting me, and you’ve never even looked at me.” I don’t feel very much”! but she responded, “I’m overwhelmed by a lot of situations that are going on in my head, so it’s inappropriate for me to stand there and feel like I’m being publicly embarrassed because you’re embarrassing me.” I took that right on the chin, so fair play to me.

He responded, “I was speaking my mind and how I feel, not saying anything bad about you personally.” I always cast my heart and mind in the polls.

“Charlie would never do that,” Charlie said as he approached Charlie and the other boys. Do you not comprehend where I’m coming from? Actually, no, not really! I apologize for offending you, but all I’m saying is that I’m speaking from my perspective. “Jess’ next behavior riled viewers because she apologized to Charlie right away,” she said.

She responded, “I’ll say sorry, I’m actually really sorry, especially given the Tommy situation.” However, you’re examining two connections because of this. You must be aware that you will face consequences.

What am I supposed to do, he said, “Everyone likes to make it deep, right? ” Not wanting to kiss you, but rather recoup with Mills and then not want to? I don’t want to lose that spark with you, but neither of you can handle this drama. Fans were left wondering what Jess’ game was given her initial exchange with Charlie, but it was then that she declared she was removing herself from the situation.

Because Jess is basically confessing she likes him, but how does she know that? wrote one fan. After picking Millie, Charlie doesn’t leave that impression. “And another said that Jess is upset because Charlie didn’t pick her at the recoupling, not because Tommy (who stated facts anyway) said. “

A third person wrote: “Jess needs to get out of Charlie’s a**** because he literally picked someone else’s babe wake up,” and a fourth person questioned why you are apologising to Charlie, a birdie. don’t you think I notice how you bring Whitney and Belle just in case someone tries to accuse you of being so cruel?

Last night, AJ chose Shaq, Sammie chose Ciaran, Leanne chose Leanne, Sean chose Helena, Whitney chose Whitney, and Jack chose Belle. The fact that Millie was a “good kisser” was then why Charlie made his decision, and he also chose her. Tommy chose Jess as a result, but the set was incredibly frosty due to the environment.

Fans immediately questioned Charlie’s decision on social media, with one saying, “Charlie just kissed Jess talking about thank God can’t wait to sleep in the same bed with you Mils”? Why do they act in this manner if this is a genuine psychological experiment?

One third wrote, “So Charlie lipsed Jess just for him to choose Millie, he is such a loser,” and another wrote, “I’m so confused right now. I’m wondering if Charlie has a mental illness.” This recoupling is such a mess, like what this season actually is, “Another fumed”!

After the outcome, Jess was later in tears, but some fans weren’t entirely on her side. I’m with Tommy Tbf, one wrote. After five days, Jessica made the decision to talk to Charlie and then said, “You live with your mom, and we go through different times in our lives. “Us knew that from the beginning.

Another person responded, “I don’t understand why Jess is surprised when Charlie gave her attention the first time she saw him.” Later, Charlie was urged to confess to Millie that he had kissed Jess before choosing her.

Before the recoupling had begun, Scott had already gotten involved in the drama. Then, Marilyn was caught “dropping it” and insisting that she, Charlie, and Jess were all moving on.

Jess cried as she was about to shed tears and declared, “Everyone is putting their f****** two pence in!” I don’t understand it. In the end, I’m here for myself, but I still feel some guilt. Every boy I’ve spoken to has agreed with me, and that’s exactly how I’ve done it. My f****** friend is supposed to be Scott.

Tommy pleaded: “You’ve been ghosting me, you’ve not even looked at me. I haven’t felt much!” but she hit back: “I’m overwhelmed with a lot of situations that are going on in my head so for me to stand there and feel like I’m being publicly shamed because you’re embarrassing me. Fair play to me because I took that straight on the chin.”

He replied:”I wasn’t saying anything nasty about you personally, I was speaking my mind and how I feel. Every time, I vote from my heart and my mind.”

“Charlie would never do that, go to speak to Charlie, go speak to one of the other boys. Do you not understand where I’m coming from? “Not really, no! I apologise for upsetting you but I’m just speaking from my point of view.” It was what Jess did next that riled viewers as she immediately went to apologise to Charlie.

She said: “I will say sorry, I am actually really sorry, especially after that whole Tommy situation. But this is the problem you’re exploring two connections. You’ve got to know that you’re gonna come to some sort of consequences.”

He replied: “Everyone likes to make it deep, what am I meant to do? Not kiss you, then recouple with Mills and then not wanna kiss you? I don’t wanna lose that spark with you but I can’t be a***** with this drama from either of you.” It was then that Jess declared that she was removing herself from the situation, but fans were left wondering what her game was given her initial conversation with Charlie.

One fan wrote: “They needed to focus on that more because Jess is basically confessing she likes him more but also how does she know that? Charlie does not give that impression especially after picking Millie!” and another said: “Jess is upset because Charlie didn’t pick her at the re coupling, not because of what Tommy said (who stated facts anyway)”

A third wrote: “jess needs to get out of charlie’s a**** he literally picked someone else babe wake up,” whilst a fourth wrote: “jess why are u apologising to charlie u absolute bird brain. dont think i dont notice how u keep bringing whitney and belle just incase they try blaming you”

Last night, AJ picked Shaq, Sammie picked Ciaran, Scott picked Leanne, Sean picked Helena, Konnor picked Whitney and Jack picked Belle. Charlie then reasoned his choice was down to the fact that she was a “good kisser” and chose Millie. Following this, Tommy chose Jess but there was an undeniably frosty atmosphere on set.

Fans instantly took to social media to question Charlie’s decision, with one writing: “Charlie just kissed Jess talking bout thank God can’t wait to sleep in the same bed with you Mils??” Another fumed: “This show is a genuine psychological experiment… why do they act like this?!”

A third said: “So Charlie lipsed Jess just for him to choose Millie, he is such a loser,” and another wrote: “Is Charlie suffering from some sort of mental illness or what cos I’m so confused right now.” Another fumed: “This recoupling is such a f****** mess, like what is this season actually!”

Jess was later in tears again over the way things had turned out, but some fans didn’t exactly take her side. One wrote: “I’m with Tommy tbf. Jess decided after 5 days to start talking to Charlie and then said to Tommy… You live with your mom, we are at different times in our lives… U knew that from the beginning.”

Another said: “I don’t understand why Jess is surprised when she’s the one whose literally dropped him the second Charlie gave her attention!” The Islanders later urged Charlie to tell Millie that he had kissed Jess prior to choosing her.

Before the recoupling had taken place, it had all kicked off with Scott getting involved in the drama. Millie was then seen telling her fellow Islanders to “drop it” and insisting that she, Charlie, and Jess were all “moving on”.

On the verge of tears, Jess raged: “Everyone is putting their f****** two pence in! I don’t get it. At the end of the day, I’m here for myself, and I do carry some guilt on my shoulders. It’s just the way that I’ve spoken to every single boy, and they all agree. Scott is supposed to be my f****** friend.”
