Molly-Mae Hague recently shared her top three make-up products, and it included this new brow gel. Keen to see if it’s worth the hype, I tried it out on my unruly eyebrows…

Blessed (or cursed, whichever you think) with naturally thick, coarse eyebrow hairs, I use a brow gel pretty much every day to control and shape them, even if I don’t wear any other make-up. I have a long-term favourite (REFY Brow Sculpt, FYI) but I’m always up for trying new recommendations, so when Molly-Mae Hague recently included one in her top three make-up products, I had to try it.

Speaking to influencer William Grande this week on the red carpet at the NTAs – where her Amazon show Molly-Mae: Behind It All won an award – Molly shared her current three favourite make-up products, and it included Morphe Micro Manager Gripping Brow Gel, which costs £12 from Selfridges.

Promising 16-hour hold, 100% of testers said that this lifts, tames and locks brows into place, and 100% also agreed that it feels flexible and comfortable to wear.

I was immediately taken by the slimline, gold-packaged design and, when I opened it, the teeny tiny spoolie brush – smaller than any I’d used before. The benefits of this, I found, are that it allows you to very precisely shape the brows exactly how you want, without overloading them with product or getting it onto the surrounding skin – an issue I’ve had with other products in the past.

To be honest, I didn’t expect it to be strong enough to hold up my heavy brows – few brow gels are – but this even passed the pulling-a-jumper-over-the-head test without my eyebrows drooping. Even better, there was no white residue or flaky bits on the hairs once it had dried – another common complaint I have. It also gave them a slightly glossy finish.

I didn’t quite test its 16-hour claim, but my brows did remain looking good all day – lifted, defined and fuller, with gaps filled in. As this Morphe gel is cheaper than my usual too, I’ll definitely be swapping to this for the foreseeable.

If you want to copy the now-BAFTA winners make-up bag even further, the two other favourites Molly-Mae listed were By Terry Cellularose CC Serum, £62, and Natasha Denona HY-GLAM Concealer, £32.

Meanwhile the star’s NTAs beauty look involved a sought-after blusher with a 1.2k waiting list, as Molly stepped out wearing NARS’ new blurring blush that thousands of fans were virtually queuing up back during its launch.

The product in question is The Multiple from NARS, priced at £33. Promising 16 hours of wear, this multitasking genius is perfect for everything from red carpet moments to everyday glam. Since launching, it’s already become a must-have product for so many beauty fans, racking up hundreds of five-star reviews in its first week.

In the middle of their tell all tour, Katie Price has revealed she and Kerry Katona were kicked out of their hotel just hours before heading on stage with the Celebs Go Dating star

Katie Price has told fans she was “booted out” of her hotel just hours before one of her shows with Kerry Katona.

Taking to Snapchat, the former glamour model updated viewers on her morning and wrote: “Hotel booted us out”. She and Kerry are in the middle of a nation-wide tour called An Evening with Katie Price & Kerry Katona, promising fans to “tell-all” about their lives.

In a video, she explained what happened in more detail. “Don’t you just hate it when people knock on the door of your hotel, ‘come on you’ve got to get out now’?” she asked.

“It really winds me up. I’m like, ‘yes if you want to come in you can see we are packing up,’. Anyway, we are at the theatre six hours early which is good do I’m going to find a Subway.

“I’m going to put the kittens in, settle them in, and then go get a Subway.”

Katie has been travelling with her beloved cats, after two had to be rushed to the vets after being found limp. She explained in a Facebook post that the cats were born two weeks premature and that she’s grown really attached to them.

“They were born two weeks premature and we have been bottle feeding them as well as their mum feeding them. But they’ve all been really healthy.

“We’re all really attached to them, they look at me like their second mum because obviously I feed them.”

She added that when she took the cats to the vet, they said it might be better to put them down, but she refused and now keeps them close all the time. “Thank God,” she added when they got home. “Because they are like my babies.”

Being “booted” out of a hotel was not the only mishap on the tour so far. Katie had to apologise to fans from the stage after one show was disrupted by a group of drunken women in Liverpool.

The pair’s most recent performance in New Brighton, Liverpool, descended into chaos after a group of drunken women were ordered to leave by security and police had to be called. Security staff were reported to be talking to a member of the audience during the show and this person and her group were then removed from the venue, to the sound of cheers from the rest of the crowd.

Katie apologised to the audience after watching all the drama on a TV backstage: “Sorry about the drama. It had nothing to do with us.”

Later, two police cars were seen outside the theatre. Merseyside police confirmed to the Echo that they had been received a report of drunken women who had to be removed from the venue and that “enquiries into the matter are ongoing”.

A spokesperson for the theatre said they were grateful to the police who assisted staff to “swiftly remove them from the premises”.

James Martin’s ITV show, Saturday Morning, was beaten to the Daytime gong at the National Television Awards by This Morning

James Martin has posted a touching message to television viewers in a fresh video following his disappointment at this year’s National Television Awards.

The celebrity chef’s ITV programme, Saturday Morning, received a nomination in the Daytime category at this year’s NTAs, which took place on 10 September at The O2 Arena in London.

James’ culinary show made the shortlist alongside This Morning, Loose Women and Scam Interceptors, however This Morning claimed the gong.

“I just want to say thank you to everyone that voted at the NTAs. What a special night,” James told his followers in the footage posted to his Instagram profile.

“Congrats to This Morning winning Best Daytime. It was amazing to be shortlisted in the final four.”

James appeared hard at work in a kitchen during the video, with the television personality wearing a striped apron whilst revealing he had returned to “the day job”.

“But back to the routine. Back to the day job. Thank you to everybody that’s voted. Thank you!” he wrapped up his social media post.

Supporters rushed to offer their backing, with one commenting: “Winning next year! ! ! !” whilst another wrote: “Same time again next year James. You’re the best to us all, don’t forget that.”

A third admirer remarked: “You’re welcome – be back again next year,” and another person noted that Saturday Morning is the first cookery programme to receive a nomination in the NTAs’ Daytime category, emphasising how “amazing” the show is.

James graced the National Television Awards on Wednesday evening with his girlfriend Kim Johnson, making a striking pair on the red carpet, reports the Express.

James embarked on a relationship with Kim, a personal trainer, following his break up from long-term girlfriend Louise Davies. He and Louise, a TV producer, were an item since 2011 but parted ways in 2023.

On the other hand, Kim was once wedded to Arun Nayar, Elizabeth Hurley’s former spouse, but they called it quits in 2017.

Richard Osman has become a household name over the years, thanks to his TV career as well as more recently penning a number of best-selling books. But he has now set his sights on a new venture

Throughout the years, Richard Osman has gained recognition primarily for his television work, alongside his more recent success as an author of multiple bestselling novels. However, he is now turning his attention to a fresh project.

Despite being recognised for developing and co-presenting Pointless, he has in recent years shifted more towards his literary pursuits.

While his books have all enjoyed different levels of critical acclaim, it was his first novel, The Thursday Murder Club, that became an immediate hit upon its publication in 2020.

The book proved so popular that The Thursday Murder Club was adapted into a film this year, featuring Dame Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Sir Ben Kingsley and Celia Imrie in the lead roles. After its cinema debut, it also enjoyed tremendous success on Netflix, reaching the top spot on the streaming service for some time.

Following the success of the book’s screen adaptation, Osman has now revealed plans for a new venture.

In a recent interview with Candis magazine, he announced that The Thursday Murder Club is destined for the theatre: “I’m also working on a theatre play of The Thursday Murder Club. A brand-new story which sees our four heroes embarking on a brand-new adventure. More news on that next year, I suspect.”

The Thursday Murder Club, a tale of four retirement home residents who meet weekly to solve cold cases, takes an unexpected twist when they are tasked with investigating a real murder. The film features Dame Helen Mirren as Elizabeth, Celia Imrie as Joyce, Sir Ben Kingsley as Ibrahim and Pierce Brosnan as Ron.

Following the huge success of his first book series, Osman launched a new collection last year, with the first instalment, We Solve Murders, hitting shelves in September.

During his chat with Candis, he shared some exciting news about the series, saying: “I’m now writing the next book in the We Solve Murders series, which I’m very excited about.”

Before embarking on his career as a novelist, Osman began in television production, working on several popular game shows, including Deal or No Deal and 8 Out of 10 Cats.

After creating the hit game show Pointless, he stepped into the spotlight to co-host the programme, a role he held for 13 years.

Former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona has hit out at Thomas Skinner after he grabbed a reporter’s phone and stormed out of an interview for Strictly Come Dancing

Kerry Katona has hit out at Strictly Come Dancing’s new contestant, Thomas Skinner, after he grabbed a journalist’s phone and stormed out of a recent interview. The 34-year-old was being interviewed alongside the rest of the 2025 line-up by journalists at BBC’s Elstree Studios this week when he suddenly stormed out.

The contestant grabbed a reporter’s phone after being asked a question as they asked him to stop. He had arrived at the table of journalists with fellow contestant Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink. A female reporter asked him what motivated him to sign up for Strictly and, in that moment, he realised he was being recorded on a phone during the press event.

“What’s that?”, he demanded, before picking up the woman’s phone and taking it from the table.

Thomas received a lot of backlash over the incident, and Kerry shared her two pence in her column for new! magazine.

Kerry said: “I read last week about the drama during the Strictly press launch, where Thomas Skinner, who was on The Apprentice, stormed out after getting angry at a journalist recording him. Whatever was going on behind the scenes, I think that’s a bit ridiculous!

“That’s what happens at press days. I worked for years to get to where I am, so have always been humble and nice to people doing their job, but sometimes overnight celebrities haven’t had that same journey.”

Following the incident, Thomas gave his side of the story on his Instagram Stories. He wrote: “To set the record straight of the back of yesterday.

“During one of the interviews, a journalist placed their phone on the table to record the conversation.

“I happened to catch a glimpse of the screen and saw numerous messages – not about Strictly but about a personal story from my past.

“I’ve been through some difficult times in my life, which I have worked hard to move on from. In that moment, seeing it there caught me off guard. I felt it was best to step away and gather myself.”

Skinner went on: “This had nothing to do with Strictly or the interviews themselves. I’m sorry I picked up someone else’s phone and I don’t even know if the journalist realised their messages were visible, and I don’t want to suggest any bad intentions on their part.

“What I do want to say is how excited I am to be part of Strictly this year. I’m so grateful for all the love, kindness and support I’ve been shown so far. It means the world to me, and I can’t wait to give it my all on that dancefloor. Bosh.”
