    CELEBRITY CLASH: Kelly Brook’s Shocking Comment Riles Ant and Dec—Piers Morgan Wades Into Explosive Feud

    Piers Morgan was branded an ‘old fish wife’ as he took to X to spill the beans on the origins of Kelly Brook’s ‘feud’ with I’m A Celebrity hosts Ant and Dec

    Former Britain’s Got Talent Piers Morgan has gleefully waded into the ‘feud’ between Kelly Brook and I’m A Celebrity hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.


    After model and presenter Kelly was named on the line-up rumours about her awkward run-ins with the Geordie hosts resurfaced. Kelly said she couldn’t get work in television again after ‘upsetting’ the small screen favourites.

    Outspoken talkshow host Piers has now had his say on the drama – having worked with Kelly and the presenters during the model’s brief stint on Britain’s Got Talent.


    Taking to X, Piers posted a picture of him with an arm round Kelly and Ant at the launch – days before she was axed from the line-up. He wrote alongside it: “As Kelly Brook goes into the I’m A Celebrity jungle, a throwback to when she was a judge on for just two days! Be interesting to see how she interacts with Ant and Dec given she blames them for it.”

    Teasing how the fallout started, Piers told his followers “They weren’t happy when she asked them what they did on the show…”

    Ant and Dec came face to face with Kelly Brook on I'm A Celebrity last night

    “Imagine blaming the hosts for a two-day run. Bold move. Let’s see if the jungle treats her any better this time,” replied one follower.

    “Wild how TV history is full of these tiny moments that become legendary years later. Two days on the panel and we’re still talking about it,” said another.

    “Piers you are like an old fish wife with sh**e like this,” another joked.


    In their 2010 autobiography, Ant and Dec spoke openly about their tension with Kelly. Dec even said he could not understand why she had been recruited on to Britain’s Got Talent.

    Kelly joined Series 3 in 2009 as the fourth judge alongside Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan. However she was unceremoniously axed after just one week.


    It was reported at the time that the the format was deemed ‘too complicated’ with four judges, the first time it had been done on the show.

    However, Kelly said it was actually Ant and Dec were behind the departure. Dec wrote in his memoir, Ooh! What a Lovely Pair: Our Story: ‘Kelly looked nervous, so I told her it was going to be great fun and to just relax…

    ‘She nodded, then looked at me and said, “And what do you do on the show?”, I looked at Simon, who was sat next to me, he turned to Kelly and said, “Kelly, you have seen the show, haven’t you?” To which she replied, “Yeah… well, bits”.’ I don’t want to sound like an egomaniac, but the last person who said, “And what do you do?” was the Queen when I met her at the party for ITV’s fiftieth anniversary.”

    Kelly jumped out of a plane as she made a dramatic arrival

    Kelly fumed back: “There was nothing I could do in this country after Britain’s Got Talent. The people at ITV were telling me that I had upset Ant and Dec and that was it. I would love to have stayed on the show…

    “I really felt it was working out. Ant and Dec had never been anything but pleasant to my face but, clearly, they didn’t want me on the show. Their egos are such that they were saying to themselves “How dare she think she can come on to our show?”, and since then they’ve been very vocal about their displeasure at me being there.”


    Ant and Dec also complained in their book that theyhadn’t been consulted about Kelly joining the show. Dec wrote: “We had two questions: “Why is there a fourth judge?” and “Why is it Kelly Brook?” None of them could answer us…

    “Obviously, as hosts of the show, we have to justify that kind of thing to the audience, and no one could give us a good reason why Kelly was on board.

    “The simple answer was that Simon, without talking to anyone, had decided it was a good idea. We didn’t agree.”

     

    Asked for opinion on their autobiography, Kelly quipped: As for Ant and Dec, good luck to them. They are rich and they are happy, but they won’t be in my autobiography, even if I am in theirs!”

  • EXCLUSIVE SCOOP: Vicky Pattison’s Secret Strictly It Takes Two Agreement Revealed As She Mysteriously Misses Show

    EXCLUSIVE SCOOP: Vicky Pattison’s Secret Strictly It Takes Two Agreement Revealed As She Mysteriously Misses Show

    Strictly Come Dancing fans were left confused after Vicky Pattison failed to appear on It Takes Two on Monday without any real explanation following her elimination from the show

    Vicky Pattison did not appear for an interview on It Takes Two – but she had an agreement

    Strictly Come Dancing fans were left confused after Vicky Pattison failed to appear on It Takes Two on Monday. The Geordie Shore star was eliminated from the dancing competition over the weekend and it’s tradition for the axed contestant to have their first interview on the show’s spin-off at the beginning of the following week.


    Host Fleur East confirmed to viewers that Vicky and Kai would appear later in the week, but gave no explanation. But the Mirror can now reveal why Vicky was absent.


    A source close to Vicky told us: “Vicky had it pre-agreed that she was going to celebrate her birthday with some friends and family. She has hardly seen them the last few months cos of training so it was a wonderful celebration but nothing too crazy.

    Strictly - It Takes Two

    “The BBC gave her permission to have the time around her birthday off and so she will be appearing on It Takes Two on Wednesday.”

     

    Vicky had faced Balvinder Sopal in the dance off, and the EastEnders actress appeared in her place, where she explained how ‘horrible’ it had been to compete against her friend for a place in next week’s Blackpool heat. She said: “I knew we were gonna be in the dance off, and when I saw who was lined up, I was like ‘This is awful.’

    “And then they announced Vicky, and I was like ‘I just can’t…’ We became quite close, and our journey together has been really solid. I thought ‘I don’t wanna be the one…’ It was horrible, it’s horrible with anybody, but someone you’ve got close to, it’s not the way you want it to play out.”

    Over the weekend, the former Loose Women star shared a video clip from her birthday party – which she hosted just as her sad scenes went to air. The post includes a message from a friend that reads ‘You are so special, never change. Love you.”

     

    An emotional Vicky could be seen blowing out her birthday candles in front of a room her pals. The reality star, who has told how she has a constant battle with anxiety, said: “I know I let my nerves get in the way – and I will proper beat myself up over that. But I’ve never danced before sober and here I am, sober as a judge.”

    Vicky, who was visited by her husband Ercan and their dogs during training this week, looked gutted to be sent home, but told presenter Tess Daly: “It was so lovely while it lasted, and I’ve had the nicest time. I knew this week was a difficult one for me, and I tried my hardest, as I have every week.”

    Strictly Come Dancing

    She said that getting as far as week eight had far surpassed her own expectations. “Listen, I didn’t think I’d get past week one,” she insisted. “And I’m really honoured to have shared this experience with so many amazing people. Mostly with this fella right here.”

    She told Kai: “You’ve been the best partner a girl can ask for. I’m so sorry I didn’t get you to Blackpool but I feel like I’ve won just by having you as my partner and I’m so grateful.”


    Kai said she’d been a joy to teach, telling her: “You are everything that this series is about. Strong, confident, independent – and all that I can say is, I have loved every single second. I’m going to be gutted not coming to Blackpool with you on Monday. But I just want you to know that I feel like I have also won getting you as my partner.”

    Fans previously said it was an especially brutal departure for Vicky because of Blackpool, her tango triumph last week, and also because Sunday was her 38th birthday.

    One fan said: “Pretty shocking result, had Vicky down as a nailed on finalist and 50:50 winner along with Lewis (Cope).”


    Another agreed: “Slightly distraught with the result because you were a definite potential winner and a firm favourite of mine, but I hope you’re extremely proud of yourself.VickyPattison, because you’ve done so amazing!!! We’re all proud of you lass!!”

    But others felt Vicky had been let down on the night, claiming: “I did think the song didn’t go with the dance, the outfit didn’t go with the staging and the graffitied stairwell is almost designed to turn off the average Strictly viewer.”

    One viewer added: “The dress was giving more Charleston vibes and the set was giving just ugly vibes.”

  • Emotional Rollercoaster: Strictly’s Balvinder Hits Heartbreaking Show Low—Fans Rally To Give Her A Break In Blackpool

    Emotional Rollercoaster: Strictly’s Balvinder Hits Heartbreaking Show Low—Fans Rally To Give Her A Break In Blackpool

    Balvinder is a lifelong fan of Strictly who has wanted to take part for 20 years – let’s help her to enjoy Blackpool this weekend

    Bal and Julian

    Spare a thought for Balvinder Sopal. When she said last night that she just didn’t want to do the Strictly dance off, you’d have to have a heart of stone not to feel sorry for her, after she failed to get enough votes for the FOURTH time.


    She’s now equalled 2015 contestant Jamelia for the all-time record she never wanted to hold – of having to fight for survival more than anyone else in the show’s history. One more, and she will take the title.


    But surely, in Blackpool, the voting public needs to give the EastEnders star the support she deserves and let her just sail through to the following week without needing to perform twice? After all, in the jungle Ant and Dec have brought in new rules to stop the same people doing the Bushtucker Trials over and over again, so it seems only fair that Bal is also given a break.

    Strictly Come Dancing's Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon

     

    The first time she was in the dance-off, against Ross King in week two, you could see it had massively knocked her confidence the following week. Since then she has also competed, and won, against rugby player Chris Robshaw, model Ellie Goldstein and now reality star Vicky Pattison.

    The poor woman must be wondering how on earth she is still in the competition and also why it keeps on happening. But one thing is sure. Even though the situation is inevitably making her feel a bit unloved, it’s also making her fight. And boy, is she proving good at that.


    Balvinder should also take heart over how judges have picked her to stay time and time again, showing that when she’s on the ropes, she can find something a little bit extra to impress them all. Craig said on Sunday that he’d noticed a “massive improvement” after her second go at the American Smooth – and so did the audience.

    Of course today there are lots of people moaning that Vicky Pattison should have stayed in the competition – but the simple truth is that she and Kai were out of synch at times and it was all a bit messy while Balvinder and Julian went up a notch. They absolutely deserved to stay.

    Bal and Nirma

    One fan lamenting Vicky’s demise moaned: “It’s crazy Balvinder got through – four times in the dance off, what does that tell you?” Well, what it tells me is that she’s got some resilience to come back each time and see off her opponents. Both women had the same score on Saturday, with 27 points apiece, but Bal did far better in the dance off. In the end, the decision was simple.

    Balvinder is the perfect Strictly contestant – she’s not a trained dancer but she’s giving it her all and showing real signs of improvement each week. So let’s give her the treat she deserves for Blackpool – as a huge fan of the show for many years she’s bound to be hugely excited to make it to the iconic Tower Ballroom.

    The Walford veteran many get to dance the Argentine tango that she’s long been dreaming to do this week – here’s hoping – but whatever she does, if it goes well, let’s stick some votes on her.

     

    I’m backing an idea I saw being suggested by a fan who sensed she was “absolutely crushed” at the weekend. They said that if a few George Clarke fans threw Bal a side vote, she could have a week away from the dreaded red zone. “George would still avoid the dance off due to the apparent huge size of his fanbase and Bal could get a much needed break,” they said. Sounds like a plan to me.

    So come on all you EastEnders fans. Suki needs you!

    BREAKING NEWS: Strictly Come Dancing Fans All Make The Same Complaint Just Minutes Into Live Show—Outrage Erupts Over Controversial Change

    Strictly Come Dancing viewers took to social media with fury during a news segment.

    Strictly Come Dancing made its eagerly-awaited return to the BBC with week eight of the star-studded competition. However, as hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman introduced the panel of judges and the contestants, they highlighted the significance of this week, as the performances will determine which stars will dance at the home of ballroom, Blackpool. Before the competition got underway, a special clip played of the judges and professionals highlighting the importance of Blackpool week and what it means to them.

    In the VT, head judge Shirley Ballas stated: “Blackpool is so special to me because I’ve been going there since I was seven years old. The minute I step into the ballroom, I go all fuzzy and warm inside. For me, it’s just the best place on earth.” As she shared, emotional photos and clips of the proclaimed Queen of Latin appeared on screen, highlighting her journey in the ballroom. Despite this, some fans were unimpressed and took to social media to complain about the segment, as one fumed: “Enough of these X Factor vts.” As a second pleaded: “Please don’t turn strictly into a sob story.”

    Another fumed: “This is literally taking up too much time – they literally could’ve shown this tomorrow night.”

    While a fourth questioned: “What is the point of this Blackpool video? Just get on with the dancing please.”

    Among the pros to share their excitement for Blackpool, Kai Widdrington opened up about his early days in ballroom and performing on the coveted dancefloor as a youngster.

    As a clip of him as a teenager played, the 30-year-old shared: “I was 14 years old when I got to represent Great Britain at the World Championships in Blackpool.”

    Referring to the clip, Kai added: “This is me in the red and you can see the grey-haired lady waving her flag, that’s my grandmother, which holds a special place in my ehart because she’s not here anymore.”

    Newcomer pro Alexis Warr also shared her anticipation and added: “I feel like I’m stepping into a bit of history and it’s so cool.”

    While Anton Du Beke reflected: “My fondest memory of dancing at Blackpool on Strictly Come Dancing is the Ann Widdecombe saga. People on the street waiting outside could hear the screams from the ballroom as I did the famous bum spin.”

    Ahead of the iconic episode, Strictly has confirmed that four celebrities will make a huge comeback for one night only as part of the spectacular group dance during the Blackpool special.

    Ashley Roberts, Danny Mac, Jay McGuiness and Layton Williams will perform with the professional dancers for a dazzling routine that’ll see them each revisit one of their most famous Strictly moments as part of the celebration.

    Speaking on the reunion, Ashley shared: “I’m so excited and grateful to be back on the shiny floor in Blackpool again. Nearly a decade later, let’s see if these jive legs can still do their thing! Sequins always help, I’m sure.”

    DRAMA EXPLODED: ITV I’m A Celebrity’s Lisa Riley Branded ‘Rule-Breaker’ After Daring Move In Camp—Shock Twist Leaves Fans Talking

    This year’s stars are settling into jungle life as I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! is officially in full swing.

    Emmerdale's Lisa Riley 'crying constantly' as she shares devastating loss |  Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV | Express.co.uk

    On Sunday night, ITV audiences watched this year’s I’m A Celebrity contestants enter what will be their home for the coming weeks.

    Plunging them in at the deep end, the 10 famous faces encountered their first trials before even entering the jungle. Yet, one celebrity appears to be irritating viewers already.

    During Monday night’s latest instalment, it appeared Loose Women panellist Kelly Brook is adapting to the unexpected guests in camp.

    Whilst cleaning her teeth near the dunny, an insect landed on her hand, prompting her to shriek and shake it away.

    However, when she attempted to remove the creature, her toothbrush also flew into the jungle undergrowth below, reports the Daily Star.

    Springing into action, Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley didn’t hesitate as she swiftly ventured down into the jungle vegetation to retrieve it for her.

    Admiring Lisa’s efforts, rapper Aitch subsequently told the Bush Telegraph: “Lisa saved the day, she got right down there, I don’t even think she’s allowed down there to be honest. She’s breaking the rules and everything, she’s a badman.”

    Before entering the ITV programme, Lisa revealed that losing her mum in 2012 and the death of her Strictly Come Dancing best friend Robin Windsor last year have provided her with the courage to face the notorious Trials.

    She said: “I lost my best friend not so long ago and mum got diagnosed at the age of 48 (with breast cancer), I’m 49.

    “Nothing can be as bad as that in life and I have got to see if I can do it. Every day is a blessing and I want to really enjoy everything.”

    It appears Lisa has already made a strong impression on viewers, with some tipping the actress as a potential champion.

    On X, one viewer declared: “Lisa Riley’s winning this.”

    Another chimed in: “Lisa Riley is going to be like the mama bear of camp this year, I can see it already.”

    A third posted: “#ImACeleb Hope Lisa Riley does well on the show.”

    Whilst another remarked: “Can’t decide who to root to win so I’ve decided to root for either Alex Scott MBE, Ruby Wax OBE, Jack Osbourne or Lisa Riley to win #ImACeleb.”

    Nevertheless, it appears another contestant who might be in contention for this year’s crown is content creator Angry Ginge.

    Ant and Dec’s dramatic helicopter entrance had to be cancelled as I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! returned to ITV on Sunday.

    Due to weather conditions and strict health and safety regulations, the flight couldn’t be approved, forcing the pair to arrive by car to meet the celebrities.

    Dec revealed: “We had a chopper on the ground and basically it started raining and we couldn’t get in the chopper.” Ant humorously added: “Health and safety gone mad.”

    In past years, they have made their grand entrance via helicopter or even speedboat. An insider commented: “They couldn’t take any chances.”

    The weather this year has been unpredictable with severe storms battering the camp on Sunday, followed by scorching 30-degree heat on Monday.

    An insider shared: “The very wet weather on Sunday, and the end of last week played havoc with the filming, as well as conditions in camp, with all the leeches and bugs coming out. But the weather then did a dramatic about-turn and was sizzling in the last 24 hours. It’s the ideal temperature for lots of Jungle Shower action,” reports the Mirror.

    This news comes after Kelly Brook pledged over the weekend that she was prepared to bare all for the famous Jungle shower. She pleaded with I’m a Celebrity viewers to embrace her curves following trolling over her figure.

    She said: “Obviously, I am not a 20-year-old bikini model anymore. You know, life changes and your body changes. And I just hope people are accepting of me and how I look now, and not comparing me to how I used to look. You know, I am a very different person. I am older, but I am still strong and I am still fit, and that is the most important thing.”

    Rather, she revealed she had “embraced” her curves. “I feel really confident. I feel like my body is in good shape. I just feel great,” she says.

    “I am 46, I embrace my curves. I embrace my body. I ran a marathon this year….so I am proud of that.”

    Kelly has previously declared nothing she has ever undertaken compares to this challenge. “I have never, ever been in the middle of a jungle, sleeping under the stars,” she says.

    “I think it is going to be probably the most challenging thing I have ever done in my life… I have heard that it is life changing.”

    She continued: “I do not know who I am in there with yet but I am just hoping we just all have fun together.”

    Kelly will celebrate her 47th birthday in camp, but organised a small party before departing with her Heart Radio colleagues. “We had some drinks, and I got gifted a beautiful cake of my face, which was hilarious… So we had a little celebration before I left.”

    One challenge she anticipates in camp is the mornings.

    “I am not great in the mornings, and not having sugar, salt, coffee… that is going to be the biggest test,” she admits. “I kept saying to myself every day, I am going to wean myself off the coffee in Australia.”

    Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly issued a plea to viewers after many were left frustrated by a technical glitch. The second episode of the new series kicked off on Monday (November 17) evening, and featured Angry Ginge and Ruby Wax take on the first eating trial. After the pair successfully won 10 stars, all eyes were on the next trial and which celebrity would be taking part. One star will enter the jungle doomsday vault, filled with snakes and other horrors in the hopes of winning meals for camp.

    Like always, Ant and Dec told viewers to head over to the I’m A Celebrity app to vote for who they wanted to see do the trial. But there appeared to be a technical issue as several viewers were unable to vote. Many were left furious, with one writing on X: ” #ImACeleb @ITV come on guys sort it out. If the app is going to take you to the website to vote, make sure IT have prepared for the amount of traffic coming to the site!! No sooner did Ant and Dec say keep trying, it worked for a couple of votes and blew up again!!”

    Another fumed: ” #ImACeleb not impressed with the @imacelebrity app tried to vote & it’s not working.”

    A third raged: “The #ImACeleb voting system this year has been c**p, this is the second time I haven’t been able to vote, I got the code to confirm my number 10 minutes late yesterday, and today i keep on getting a timeout on login? Is anyone else having this issue?”

    Ant and Dec addressed the issue at the next opportunity, urging fans to keep trying and explaining that the problem was caused by too many people voting at once.

    “We know a few of you out there are experiencing some problems with the app. But it’s because the vote is incredibly busy so please keep trying,” Dec said.

    Ant added: “Keep trying!”

    Later in the show, Dec explained that the app issues were likely due to the overwhelming number of votes they had received.

    “We have had well over a million votes tonight which is why you may have experienced a few problems on the app. Thanks for your votes, they are coming through,” he told viewers.

    Before heading into camp to reveal who was doing the next trial, Ant confirmed they had received more than two million votes overall.

    At the end of the episode, Ant and Dec revealed Aitch will be taking on tomorrow night’s trial.

    EXCLUSIVE: Emmerdale’s Kelvin Fletcher Reveals The Grim Reality Of Farm Life—Star Forced To Collect Poo Samples In Shocking Scene

    Liz Fletcher

    Kelvin Fletcher and his wife Liz have given viewers a glimpse into the reality of life on the farm with the latest episode of their reality show. The actor, 41, previously played farmer Andy Sugden on Emmerdale but has since turned his hand to real-life agriculture since quitting the ITV soap nearly a decade ago and the couple document their lives on their 120-acre Cheshire property.


    In the new episode of Fletchers’ Family Farm, Kelvin, who has been married to Liz Marsland since 2015 and has Marnie, seven, Milo, four, and 23-month-old twins Maximus and Mateusz, dealt with the not-so-glamorous task of collecting samples for the vet, and while the ewes co-operated, the lambs did not.

    Kelvin Fletcher

    In the end, Kelvin phoned the vet for advice on what to to in such a grim situation. The vet explained: “Glove on, it’s just one finger in, but if there’s nothing there, it can be difficult, you need a smaller hand.” To his horror, the former Strictly Come Dancing star began doing as the vet instructed but was left with no other option but to enlist the help of his wife.


     

    As she clambered over the fence to take on the task, Liz said: “You just make sure it doesn’t kick! Oh, God. There’s no poo there. You can’t just have a root round, that’s not nice. Do you want me to stick a finger up your bum?!”

    There was another dramatic moment when Kelvin realised that a set of twin lambs had been struggling to latch on to their mum. Kelvin noted that a lack of milk coming from the mother was a sign of mastitis.


    A course of antibiotics was needed ‘straight away,’ and was expected to clear the whole thing up but in the mean time, until the swelling had gone down and the infection has been cleared, the lambs had to . “Liz made up a bottle as if doing it for baby, explaining that it was basically the same sort of practice as when she’d used formula for their children.

    But a more heart-warming moment came around when Kelvin explained to viewers that their children are now getting to the age when they can understand more, and they set about feeding the bottle to the lambs themselves.

    He explained: “They just instinctively take on a parental role. They’re babies themselves but they see themselves as protectors of this little lamb, it’s a beautiful quality.”


    Earlier this year, they suffered a devastating time when there was a fire at their property, resulting in them having to temporarily leave their home. Appearing on Thursday’s instalment of Lorraine, the duo told the ITV star what they’ve been up to since the fire.

    Liz commented: “You’ve just got to keep carrying on and we have done! We’ve expanded on the cows, we’ve expanded on the sheep.


    “We’ve had a bit of romance at the farm. We’ve had our very first wedding, which was beautiful and there’s so much more to come.”

    Cutting in, Kelvin revealed that there should be some new arrivals at the farm next Spring, as it’s currently mating season.

    He added: “Speaking of sheep, this is now mating season as you mentioned before. I have to be clear, that’s not me and Liz! That is for the sheep.

     

    “We’re getting the tup ready because we’re already looking ahead to springtime when we will be expecting some lambs. So, the important time now is with our male sheep and getting them ready to go out there and meet the females.”

    Fletchers’ Family Farm is on ITV at 11.30am on Sundays.

    The star revealed she has Raynaud’s syndrome as she shared a pic of her handCredit: Instagram
    After being inundated with messages about the condition, Samia told her followers:  “Seems many of you have the same thing and lots are asking for tips on how to deal with it.. I’ve had it about 20 years now and it’s not dangerous, it’s called #raynauds disease.. when I get too cold a couple of my fingers go numb and I lose feeling in them.

    “It doesn’t last long but can be a bit painful when the blood returns. For me, it’s usually just my fingers so it’s quite mild, but I know that it can affect toes too in some people.”

    The star, who plays Maria Connor on the ITV soap, went on to offer her fellow sufferers some advice on how to deal with it.

    She explained:  “My tips so far have been to keep as warm as possible (obviously!). Wear gloves when it’s cold out. Hand warmers are my best friend in winter.

     

    “Eat/ drink anything with ginger as that’s good for circulation. And keep moving my fingers to get the blood flowing again!”

    Samia , who made it clear she isn’t a professional, added:  “Even going down the freezer aisle in a supermarket can set mine off .”

    Emmerdale actress Michelle Hardwick commented on the post and revealed she also had it.

    She wrote: “I first noticed mine when I was 10 playing netball… Since then I’ve been diagnosed with Raynauds Disease. Thank goodness for hand warmers in that Emmerdale village.”

     

    Samia has been a core member of the Corrie cast since the year 2000.

    She married French pro skater Sylvain Longchambon in 2016, after they were paired together on Dancing On Ice in 2013. They have a son called Yves, born in 2015.

    Raynaud’s disease means that the small blood vessels in the extremities such as the hands, feet, fingers or toes are over-sensitive to even the slightest changes in temperature, cold conditions and sometimes emotional stress.

    When our bodies are exposed to the cold, a normal response is for the blood vessels to become narrower.

    When someone has Raynaud’s this reaction may be much more extreme.

    It will sometimes cause a noticeable colour change to the affected areas, with the skin turning white, then blue and finally to red as the circulation returns.

    This is known as a Raynaud’s attack.

    A Raynaud’s attack can be very uncomfortable, and sometimes quite painful.

    It can also make everyday tasks, like buttoning a jacket or unzipping a purse, very difficult.

    Raynaud’s symptoms generally affect the fingers and toes, but all extremities can be involved, including the hands, feet, ears, nose, lips, tongue and nipples.

    Raynaud’s is a common condition thought to affect up to ten million people in the UK.

    Symptoms may include:

    Cold fingers and toes
    Colour changes in your skin in response to changes in temperature or stress
    Colours changes in the affected area from white to blue then red
    Numbness, tingling or pain in affected areas
    Stinging or throbbing pain when you’re warm or get relief from stress

    She didn’t hold her feeling back on ‘rude’ Shaun Ryder
    This Morning host Alison made the confession as she appeared on the ITV2 I’m A Celebrity spin-off show, Unpacked, live from Australia.

    The programme, hosted by Joel Dommett and Kemi Rodgers, has welcomed Alison onto the panel to discuss this year’s jungle antics but she has already had her say on her own series.

    Discussing arriving as a late arrival into the 2010 series, Alison revealed that Shaun Ryder instantly took an issue with her.

    Alison said: “When I went in there, I’ll never forget, I walked in and said the party’s here with my Terry’s Chocolate Orange and everyone was like [unbothered face].

    “Then, Shaun Ryder hated my guts straight away.

    “He was very rude!”

    She added: “So hopefully there are no Shaun Ryder’s in there [this year].”

    Shaun Ryder famously clashed with many of his co-stars during his time in the jungle.

    Alison looked less than impressed when discussing the star even when his pal Leigh Francis attempted to come to his defence.

    Leigh said to her: “I know Shaun and he’s normally really lovely.”

    Alison made a disgruntled noise as she shook her head.

    During tonight’s opening episode of I’m A Celebrity, all ten famous faces were instantly faced with tough challenges.

    At one point, Kelly Brook was left screaming that critters were biting her boobs.

    The model, 45, and five others were placed in Kiosk Kev’s cockroach-shaped “Cockie van” and had jungle nasties dumped on to them.

    They had to unlock six keys from a grate above their heads to earn six stars for camp – which they did.

    A screaming Kelly said: “Oh my God, they’re biting my t**s!”
