After eight months of dating, Ricky Hatton and Claire Sweeney reportedly ended their relationship.
The fiery romance began earlier this year when boxing champion Ricky, 46, and soap queen Claire, 53, met while competing on ITV’s Dancing On Ice. However, it appears that the two were unable to leave their relationship and have since agreed to end it.
The pair’s hopes for continued friendship are reported to have failed, despite the fact that there have been rumors of possible lifestyle differences. Claire is twice divorced, having been married to Tony Hibbard from 2001 until 2007 and then Daniel Reilly from 2013 until 2015.
Although Ricky has never been married, he and Jennifer Dooley, 23, have a 11-year relationship and they are also the parents of boxer Campbell Hatton, who he shares with another ex-girlfriend, also known as Claire. On Sunday, details of Ricky’s breakup with Claire Sweeney were revealed.
Before agreeing to be just friends, the duo dated for eight months (Getty Images for Co-op Live).
A source told the Daily Mail: “Claire and Ricky remain good friends, there has been no fallout between them. They decided to end their romantic relationship and are now best friends. They had lots of common interests, but their way of life was very different. They both enjoyed their time together.
Offering some insight into the cause of the split, the source continued: “While Claire is one of the biggest stars on Coronation Street and is very career-gliding, Ricky’s more freewheeling and unpredictable. Ricky is already packing his belongings for a trip to Tenerife, where he feels more at home. Meanwhile, Claire’s putting her heart and soul into her career, leaving romance behind”.
According to the source, Claire is being “consoled by celebrity friends and fellow cast members.” Ricky and Claire’s representatives have been in contact with The Mirror for comment.
Ricky raved about Dancing On Ice and how it changed his life in June. He said: “I had a good laugh on the ice. I mean, after the first day, I was scared to death but I always love a challenge.
” I got knocked out in the first round, but I was able to able to meet Claire. Before Claire, “Ricky joked ahead of the event,” I was always a Billy no mate at these things. No, it’s great! Since we’ve been together for about five months, I’m happy to see it continue.
A source previously told the Mirror of the former romance:” The chemistry was electric. Ricky left the show early, but he eventually contacted her, and let’s say he started wooing her. They’ve been out on several dates. One of them was only on Saturday. They’ve been seeing each other quite a bit. He is completely besotted. “

After her husband, Sir Rod Stewart, accused the presenter of bullying, a heated exchange between Gregg Wallace and Penny Lancaster has resurfaced.
Kirsty Wark, a former Newsnight host, is one of 13 people who allege the MasterChef presenter made inappropriate sexual remarks. Wallace, who has resigned as host of the cooking program, has refuted claims that he made inappropriate sexual remarks.
Wallace, 60, is “committed to fully cooperating throughout the process” during the investigation process, a statement from the show’s production company Banijay UK said. Following the news, Sir Rod referred to Wallace as a “tubby, bald-headed, ill-mannered bully”. He wrote: “So Greg Wallace gets fired from Masterchef. You humiliated my wife while she was on the show, but did you not have that little bit cut out? You’re a tubby, bald-headed, ill-mannered bully. Karma got ya. Sir Rod Stewart”.
Penny, the star of Loose Women, was left embarrassed after eating her fried calamari and tartare sauce in a new clip on the cooking program. As she prepared her dish, Penny beamed with confidence and said, “I’m doing surprisingly well compared to what I imagined how I’d be doing.” I don’t want to slip up now”.
Wallace (BBC) has been attacked by Rod Stewart, Penny’s husband.
However, when it came to tasting her dish things quickly went wrong. As she plated up, Penny said: “That tartare sauce doesn’t look like the tartare sauce I’d normally have”. Gregg told her: “You used whole eggs instead of egg yolks”. Judge John Torode added: “What I’ve got in here is a raw egg/oil milkshake. Unfortunately, I can’t eat that”.
With the help of her peers for her chicken and coconut curry, green papaya chutney, grated apple, turnip and carrot salad, and coconut rice, Penny was able to move on from her error later in the episode. Gregg told her, “You have had what we call a very good day, in the industry, I found myself going from bowl to bowl to bowl and finding it difficult to stop.”
However, during the episode she was eliminated from, chaos broke out in the kitchen. Penny was struggling with her timings as Gregg quipped: “Mate, we can’t be 10 minutes late”. He then branded her delay ‘ serious’. Walsh and John have co-hosted MasterChef since 2005.
The BBC received complaints from people regarding historical allegations of misconduct while working with presenter Gregg Wallace on one of our shows, according to a statement released earlier this week. Although these complainants have not directly contacted our network’s producers or parent company Banijay UK, we believe it is appropriate to conduct an independent, thorough investigation right away.
Wallace has left MasterChef (BBC/Shine TV) to retire.
Gregg Wallace will step down from his MasterChef role while this review is being conducted, and he will work closely with him all the way through. On all productions, Banijay UK’s duty to its staff is always a top priority, and we always make our expectations clear to both the cast and the crew, with various ways to raise concerns, including being clearly promoted on set, including by phone.
It continued:” Whilst these are historical allegations, incidences brought to our attention where these expectations are not met, are thoroughly investigated and addressed appropriately. We take any concerns that are raised with us seriously and have effective procedures in place to handle them, according to a BBC spokesperson. We are always making it clear that any behavior that does not meet the standards set by the BBC will be tolerated. When an individual is hired by an external production company directly, we share any grievances or concerns with that organization and will always assist them in their communication.
After leaving MasterChef, Wallace thanked his fans on Instagram for their continued support. I would like to thank all the people for getting in touch, reaching out, and sharing their support. That’s good of you. Thank you very much. Gregg “took matters into his own hands on Sunday morning despite previous statements that his spokesperson had made.”
The cooking expert addressed those who were criticizing him on Instagram and claimed that he had never received any complaints from his screen-working career of 20 years. He claimed that some middle-class women of a certain age were among his accusers and that other MasterChef female contestants had made sexual remarks of their own.
In his Instagram Stories videos, Gregg said:” I’ve been doing MasterChef for 20 years. Amateur, Celebrity and Professional MasterChef. And in that time, I have worked with over 4, 000 contestants of all different ages, all different backgrounds, all walks of life. And apparently now, I’m reading in the paper, there’s been 13 complaints in that time. A select few middle-class women of a certain age are expressing their opinions in the newspaper, just like Celebrity MasterChef. This isn’t right. “
He continued in a second video:” In 20 years of television, can you imagine how many women, female contestants, on MasterChef have made sexual remarks or sexual innuendo. Can you imagine? “
And in a further video message to fans, he commented:” This is important to me. Twenty years of doing Celebrity MasterChef, Amateur, Professional, Eat Well For Less, Inside the Factory… Do you know how many staff, all different sorts of staff, can you imagine the people I’ve worked with? How many employees criticized me during that time, exactly? … Absolutely none. Zero. Seriously. “

Before his death, Liam Payne’s $30,000 Rolex reportedly vanished after an escort that he had with later returned to his hotel room.
The woman claimed she had forgotten her makeup and was allowed to go back to the third-floor room of the Buenos Aires hotel to retrieve it, according to respected Argentinian news website Infobae. Citing sources close to the ongoing criminal investigation, the website said: “There Payne’s Rolex watch disappeared”.
According to reports, Liam promised the woman and another female escort who arrived at the hotel for £5, 000, but they did not receive all of their money. According to Infobae, the two escorts later told prosecutors that ‘ gentleman ‘ Liam had kneeled in front of them and said, “I love you, I love you”.
He is even said to ‘ promised them ‘ his Rolex watch. However, according to reports, Liam allegedly did not turn in additional cash in the room or later in the lobby. The One Direction singer’s friend Roger Nores, who was also a former manager, is said to have arrived and made an effort to “resolve the situation.” Liam tragically fell three floors to his death from his hotel room twenty-four minutes later.
(Getty Images) Liam’s gold Rolex watch was frequently seen (Getty Images) wearing.
Before his death, he sang at his Argentine concert alongside Niall Horan (Snapchat).
Although Liam was seen wearing the Rolex on the day of his passing, the watch, which is thought to be worth around £33,000, was missing when he fell and hasn’t been seen since.
A detective involved in the case said: “We know, from images that were analysed, that Payne was wearing a Rolex on the day of his death. He had it on one of his hands for at least two to three hours before he (died).
Since then, police have searched Liam’s hotel room and the homes of several individuals close to him from that day, including those who reside nearby two female escorts, and it has not been recovered.
Though the women, who haven’t been named by police, are said to be being treated as witnesses, rather than suspects in the case, they have now reportedly hired a lawyer.
In the hours before Liam’s death, Infobae reports the singer requested bottles of Moet &, Chandon Champagne, Johnnie Walker Black Label Whisky and 300 dollars. According to the police, the money was intended to pay a drug dealer.
Before being carried into his room, Liam allegedly acted “erratically and smashed his laptop in the lobby.” The hotel staff reportedly called emergency services after a customer reported using “too many drugs and alcohol” and “trashing the entire room.” Liam quickly passed away shortly after.
Authorities believe Liam was “unconscious or semi-conscious” when he fell, so they have ruled out self-harm or Liam taking his own life. They came to the conclusion that the singer, who had drugs and alcohol in his system at the time of his passing, was unsure of his actions or had no idea what he was doing.
He died from multiple injuries, as well as internal and external bleeding brought on by the fall, according to a post-mortem examination. Three people, including a hotel worker, have since been charged in connection with Liam’s death on October 16.
One person is facing charges of “abandonment followed by death,” which can lead to a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison, and two others are accused of supplying drugs. Last week, a private funeral for Liam was held in his hometown of Wolverhampton in Buckinghamshire, and a permanent memorial is being sought.

Monty Don has since had to cancel six shows for the first time since his mysterious health scare.
The Gardeners’ World star, 69, was hospitalized for several days and declared to his fans that he was “on drips and the rest of it.” He didn’t explain the hospital dash, but earlier this week he confirmed he had been discharged and feeling better.
The horticulturist and presenter confirmed that he was back on the road as part of his An Audience With Monty Don tour over the weekend. He shared the news with his followers on social media, posting photos of him standing in line at the Regent Theatre in Ipswich and the Cambridge Corn Exchange.
He didn’t reveal what caused his health scare (Brentwood Gazette)
I’m back on the road and at the Regent Theatre in Ipswich, he captioned the photo from his dressing room. Although the theater is great and it will be a good evening, dressing rooms generally have the charm of a polling booth.
Sharing two photos of the live music venue in Cambridge, he added: “Tonight it’s Cambridge Corn Exchange- last time I was here was in 1977 to watch wrestling..”. In his dressing room, one of the images featured fruit, water, and tea.
Fans urged Monty to relax and enjoy himself after his health scare in the comment section. One wrote: “Please Monty, really take care of yourself! We all appreciate you greatly, but please don’t let your disregard for other people harm you.
Fans (BBC Studios) urged the Gardeners’ World star to rest.
A fan said: “Your health is more important than touring, although we love to see you. Take it easy, xxx. Someone else added: “Loved your evening@Ipswich last night. Hope you felt the very warm welcome, we certainly appreciated your visit”! One more commented: “We all hope you are not overdoing it. Enjoy”!
Moments after Monty said he was “feeling better,” it comes. He posted a photo of frost covering his Herefordshire garden and simply wrote: “Morning #gettingbetter”. Fans elicited well-wishes from fans throughout the stadium as they urged him to continue resting. In a video posted on Wednesday, he apologised to fans for having to cancel his upcoming talks in Exeter, Truro, Bath and Nottingham.
Monty told his 1.3 million followers: “Hello. I regret so much for the many people who planned to see me in Exeter, Truro, Bath, and Nottingham. On Friday afternoon, I was rushed to A&, E. I was kept in at the hospital over Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, and had to have drips and all the rest of it. But I came home last night, and I’m feeling much better. I’ll be spending the next few days relaxing at home, and hopefully by weekend I’ll be back in top shape.
With the arrival of a new child earlier this year, Peter Andre and his wife Emily gearing up to make it even more special for the Andre family this Christmas.
The couple, who will be celebrating 10 years of marriage next summer, welcomed their baby daughter Arabella in April – a little sister for Amelia, 10, and eight-year-old Theo, plus the trio’s older siblings, Junior, 19, and Princess, 17. Emily, who exclusively speaks to us about Christmas traditions and family customs, reveals that she has a very special holiday holiday plan for Arabella. “It’ll be a Christmas at home for us, a very chilled one”, says Emily, 35. She won’t understand it because it’s their first Christmas, but I’m going to enjoy it because it’s her first, too! She’ll look like a little Christmas pudding, so I’m going to dress her up. I’ve got it all planned”.
It will be Emily and Peter’s first christmas with their eight-month old daughter, Arabella (Instagram)
Emily described the Andre family’s “chicked Christmas” at home this year (DAVID ENGLISH).
NHS doctor Emily and singer Peter, 51, announced the pregnancy in October last year, and told OK! it was their “Christmas wish”. We chat with Emily at London’s Winter Wonderland and ask if she’s keeping her Christmas shopping organized. She admits that the preparation for Christmas has taken a little bit of a hit because having a new baby has thrown a spanner.
“I haven’t started my shopping yet – I need to sort that out”, she confesses. “I’m feeling really festive now, we always wait to get Theo’s birthday done until we start the festivities”.
But when it comes to their family Christmas traditions, Emily, who is also an author and influencer, has it all worked out. Her favourite tradition, she says, involves cutting up old tights. Rebecca, her paediatrician, and Ruaraidh, her surgeon, both taught her the practice.
“It’s my favourite tradition, we do weird stockings, stockings in tights”, she explains. We re-enter the tights after halfing them. We’ve done it since I was a child; we’ve no idea why, but we’re in love.
The couple are also parents to Millie and Theo, while Emily is a step-mum to Peter’s two eldest kids, Junior and Princess (INSTAGRAM)
Because he only began the festivities after becoming a father himself, Christmas customs have come into play an especially significant role for Peter. His parents, Savvas and Thea, raised Peter and his siblings as Jehovah’s Witnesses. The movement doesn’t observe religious holidays like Christmas and Easter, which are typically observed in other Christian religions.
He previously mentioned how Emily has introduced the holiday spirit to the family, saying, “We have many traditions, like Elf On The Shelf, but I have to admit, Emily introduced them. Because I was raised in a very religious family and we didn’t celebrate Christmas, I’m still learning a little bit. Therefore, Emily is in charge of the holiday spirit. Oh, and Santa, of course…”
While Peter doesn’t feel he missed out growing up, because it was all he knew, he said seeing his own children’s delight in the celebrations is wonderful. “Now the kids are going through it, I get to live it through them, and it’s beautiful”, he said. Because it’s their first time, it might even be even more unique.
The run-up to Christmas is a busy time for another special reason, as Theo celebrates his birthday on 22 November. Emily marked the youngster’s eighth birthday with an emotional post on her social media accounts.
Alongside a sweet snap of Theo standing on a beach, she wrote, “My gorgeous boy is 8 today. I’m actually awestruck by how long it has been! Theo, you are the most generous and loving person we could ask for. Love you so much and happy birthday”.
Although the couple chose not to share their youngest three children’s faces on social media, cooking demonstrations and videos about pumpkin carving have recently seen a rise in their family entertainment.
Peter also made a recent joke about the possibility of an Andre family podcast. He went on to explain his off-the-cuff statement on his Instagram page, saying, “We’ve been asked a few times to do one as a family, and I think it might be the right time. This would be fun, even though we are all very busy. Whether it will be just audio or video, we must choose. All the kids will be involved including baby Arabella, so watch this space”.
