Natasha Hamilton ignites hopes of Atomic Kitten reunion – but without one major star

Before the release of their debut single, Natasha Hamilton joined Atomic Kitten in the late 1990s, and she now speculates that the band might form a reunion band.

Natasha Hamilton has suggested that she is bringing the two girls back together to bring back Atomic Kitten. The 43-year-old joined the band just in time for their debut single to be released in 1999 despite not being a founding member.

After Kerry sensationally quit the band in 2001 after achieving a number one with the hit single Whole Again, she soon gained fame along with Liz McClarnon, 44, and Kerry Katona, 45. Jenny Frost, 47, followed her. Heidi Range, 42, who left Atomic Kitten for a different record deal, made up the original line-up: Liz, Kerry, and Sugababes star of the future.

Although the band have since broken up, most recently returning in 2008 and then again in 2012, playing sporadic gigs until the end of the year.

Atomic Kitten have found renewed interest after featuring in the hit BBC documentary, Girlbands Forever, and now Natasha has suggested the group could make a comeback.

The chart-topping singer said, “Never say never with a reunion, because nostalgia always hits people at different times, and I’ve spent a lot of time with Jenny this summer.

She continued, “It’s obvious that Liz just had a baby, so this isn’t the ideal time,” but I always advise never say never. We are three of us, and we are so close, and I’m hoping that we will be able to work together at some point in the future.

Natasha did evoke memories of her early years as the top of the charts while omitting Kerry, one of the most well-known members of the Atomic Kitten.

She said, “I think as the years pass and you become more and more distant from it, your mind starts to think, “Wow, it almost seems like, did it really happen?” But I’m sure it did, and I have many fond memories. We certainly went through some difficulties, but I think the good times were unquestionably more than the bad.

Richard Madeley addresses daughter Chloe ‘not being liked’ because of him and Judy

As he considered the effects of their celebrity status, Richard Madeley responded to claims that his daughter Chloe is not “liked” because of her ties to him and wife Judy Finnigan.

TV presenter Richard Madeley has opened about daughter Chloe’s claim that she isn’t “liked” because he and wife Judy Finnigan are her parents.

The Good Morning Britain presenter and his spouse are two of the most recognisable faces on British television. They share two children, including Chloe, while Judy has twin boys from her first marriage.

Chloe has also launched a career in a spotlight as a model, journalist and TV presenter. She was also married to former rugby star James Haskell, who she shares a three-year-old daughter with.

Speaking on Matt Willis’ On The Mend podcast, the Busted star read out a quote from Chloe where she said she “felt like people didn’t like her because of you both being her parents”.

Richard responded, “Well, if she said that, that’s what she said, and I believe she would probably respond differently if you asked her that question.”

In 1986, Richard and Judy wed in Granada Television’s first television series. When they first met, they were both married to different people.

From her first marriage to David Henshaw, Judy and the couple welcomed Jack and Chloe to add to their family.

They worked on a number of programmes, including This Morning (which they hosted from 1988 to 2001) and Richard & Judy on Channel 4 from 2001 to 2009.

Richard claims that their upbringing taught them how to deal with media scrutiny and intrusion, blaming “what their parents do” as a reason why none of my children have had a bad life experience.

The presenter remarked, “Chloe has entered the public eye with her work,” but she has background knowledge of how to handle it.

They have all searched for their own hideouts. They are aware of how to deal with the publicity monster’s sneer. They could always turn to us for advice, especially Chloe, who has probably the best reputation of all of them.

She married rugby player James Haskell, and that of course attracted a lot of attention. Which she was able to handle once more.

Because of what their parents do, I honestly don’t believe any of my children have anything negative to say. You can ask them, and I believe they will respond in the same way.

Richard continued to tell Matt Willis that he had a “horrible feeling” that he would have become addicted if he had tried drugs.

Emmerdale star supported by fans as he undergoes surgery year after soap axe

Fans’ support was shown when Emmy Award-winning actor Dean Andrews admitted to having been in a hospital and having undergone surgery to treat a health condition on social media.

An Emmerdale star has updated fans to reveal he has successfully undergone surgery for a health issue. Dean Andrews is best known for playing Will Taylor on the ITV soap – a role he held from 2019 until the character was killed off in December last year.

The actor has reportedly been using his time to care for his health despite missing out on television for almost a year. He revealed on social media that he had had eye surgery on Friday.

Taking to Instagram, the Emmerdale star shred a photograph of himself strapped into a seat in a car. Wearing a black golf polo shirt, he had clear protective eye shields plastered onto his face.

The former soap star wrote, “Eye surgery went well thankfully,” in a follow-up message. Fans responded quickly to Dean’s post’s comments section to well-heeled him.

Good news, one wrote. “Be well soon” Another letter read, “I hope you’re recovering quickly.” Another fan also expressed their happiness regarding your op. Take good care of yourself.

When Dean revealed earlier this year that he had been in a hospital and having surgery for a mysterious condition, he had alarmed fans.

The actor was photographed lying in a hospital bed and wearing a hospital gown, without providing any further information. In February, he gave the image two thumbs up and wrote, “Surgery went well. I’m so happy to have awakened. Many thanks to Chris, my surgeon, and the entire staff.

Dean is well known for his voiceover work, having co-starred in the UK TV documentary series Casualty 24/7, which has been broadcast since 2018.

Dean hasn’t appeared on screen since leaving Emmerdale, though. He previously claimed that he adored the ITV soap so much that the writers had to kill off his character to force him to leave, which transpired last year.

He previously stated to The Sun, “With other things we do, like other acting jobs, we stay there for three to five months, and then we all vanish and go on other things, and then we all return.”

Before I arrived, I remember people saying it was like a family at Emmerdale and thinking, “But here it really is,” but it is.

“Because we are together,” We are like a small family, and I definitely see Claire more than my own wife, and Olivia more than my own daughters.

I feel at ease here, I must say. When I first asked to come in and asked how long I wanted to stay, I said, “If I come in now, you’ll have to kick me out.”
