Angel fans rejoice! The cast of the beloved supernatural drama have reunited for the show’s 20th anniversary.

The show’s main stars, led by David Boreanaz, reconnected in LA for a special edition of Entertainment Weekly, and the nostalgia is real.

David, who is now 50 played the titular vampire with a human soul in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer spin-off which ended in 2004.

Joining him was Charisma Carpenter who played Cordelia and Amy Acker who played Winifred ‘Fred’ Burkle.

Alexis Denisof who played Wesley Wyndam-Pryce was also there alongside Spike star James Marsters and J August Richards who starred as Charles Gunn.

‘When you hear people come up and say they love the show, that they still continue to follow it and that it still resonates with them — it’s great to be part of that,’ David said in the interview.

Denisof added: ‘I know we’re not, but I secretly think of us as the first, original and real vampire show — but that’s because it’s the one I was on!

‘In its wake many have followed, some similar and some very different, but I am partial to ours.’

On the show’s legacy, creator Wil Wheaton said: ‘I always hope that people feel the difficulty and possibility of redemption within the show.

‘The price will always be high, but if they do the work, it will always be worth it.’

Angel aired from 1991 to 2004.

Alison Hammond teamed up with Weight Watchers earlier this year after announcing she had become one of the brand’s ambassadors.

And it seems as though she is more than pleased with the results, as she showcased her incredible weight loss on Twitter.

Taking to the social media site, the 44-year-old proudly uploaded a seflie as her #NewProfilePic and she looked absolutely stunning.

So stunning that some fans even mistook her for Beyonce.

Taking to the comments section, her 269,000 followers couldn’t help but praise the This Morning presenter on how well she looked.

‘Absolutely beautiful  but you are inside and out, what a star you are,’ one wrote while another added: ‘You remind of Whitney in this photo!! Beautiful.’

Someone else was in agreement, as they added: ‘Omg, how much weight have you lost, you look amazing!!’

The star has not shied away from talking about her weight, and previously revealed she wanted to prioritise both her health and well being.

Talking about her diet, she told fans: ‘My WW journey is focused on getting healthier for myself.

‘I feel rubbish when I don’t eat properly or exercise and WW helps me with what I eat and do.’

The much loved presenter added: ‘I know I’ll also lose weight by following the WW programme, but that’s not the be-all and end-all for me.

‘I want my journey to empower others to think about making changes to their lifestyle to become the best version of themselves.’

Alison started to become embarrassed by her weight when finding out she was more than 20 stone back in 2016.

Talking to Bella magazine at the time, she confessed: ‘It’s the one thing in my life that I feel like I can’t achieve.

‘When you get really big like me, you don’t see any light at the end of the tunnel.’

She continued: ‘I need to do it in small stages. If I just try and live healthily and drink lots of water, the weight loss will come.

‘If I lose one or two stone, it’s not going to be obvious to anybody, but I’ll feel better in myself.’

We all know Chris Hughes loves to wear his cap to complete his look.

But the Love Island star proved he really can’t face parting from his favourite head gear after he was spotted rocking a backward baseball cap while wearing a bathrobe.

The 26-year-old was spied in the ensemble as he enjoyed a chat with his lady on their hotel balcony in Portofino.

The smitten couple just enjoyed a romantic getaway in Italy and took a well-earned break from their hectic work schedules.

Jesy swapped the early morning glam squads for oversized shades and a large white towel as the pair made the most of their lazy morning ahead of Little Mix’s Bounce Back single release.

The couple only started dating back in February, but Chris is already thinking about watching the X Factor winner walk down the aisle.

The reality TV star told the Racing Post: ‘I want to get married. That’s something I’m looking forward to doing one day.

‘When I’m travelling around, exploring new places, with my other half not having a clue where we’re going.’

He added: ‘Being lost in a foreign country with my girlfriend makes me feel free and is when I’m at my happiest.’

This isn’t the first time Chris has mentioned tying the knot to Jesy, 27, so we get a feeling wedding bells could soon be on the cards for the lovebirds.

Curtis Pritchard’s girlfriends – who has the Love Island star dated?

Curtis Pritchard set the rumour mill churning after Love Island viewers saw his reaction to the arrival of the villa’s newest bombshell.

Model Arabella Chi is due to make her debut on tonight’s show – but preview footage on last night’s show saw the dancer staring at the new arrival in shock, pulling off his hat and sunglasses as his jaw dropped.

All of which has led to speculation that he and Arabella might have dated in the past – and that trouble could be brewing between him and ‘half-girlfriend’ Amy Hart.

Tonight’s show might well straighten things out, with Curtis’ stunned reaction seemingly down to the fact that there’s someone new in the villa, as opposed to someone he knows.

But with the speculation cleared up over Curtis and Arabella, just who has he dated?

Here’s what you need to know…

Who has Curtis Pritchard dated?

Prior to Love Island, Curtis was in a relationship with Emily Barker – also a professional on Dancing With The Stars Ireland, in which he appears – for two years, before their split in January of this year.

Emily, 22, is a dancer and choreographer from Nottingham who has been in the Dancing With The Stars line-up since the first series in 2017.

She’s also travelled with the Burn The Floor tour, as well as performing with Strictly’s Giovanni Pernice as part of his tours across the UK and Ireland – and has also toured with Louis Smith and Harry Judd, both of whom are former Strictly Come Dancing champions.

Although Curtis has not spoken about their split, he has previously admitted that he hasn’t been on that many dates.

‘I have lived a very sheltered life because of my dancing,’ he explained.

‘I’ve not done a lot of going out partying, going on dates because I haven’t had time to. Being truthful I’ve probably been on less than 10 dates, maybe five dates. I have never met anyone online, I’ve never used a dating app.

Who is Curtis coupled up with on Love Island?

Curtis is coupled up with Amy Hart – with the pair having become increasingly intimate in recent days.

So much so that the pair have already enjoyed a night together in the Hideawayas well as Curtis hinting that he and the former air hostess have ‘done bits’.

‘From the smile on my face… without saying those words and without going down any lines, just so you know our relationship is going very well,’ he explained.

‘We’re all gentlemen here so we’re not going to say whatever’s happened but I just thought I’d let you all know, that things are progressing in my relationship.’

When is Love Island on?

Love Island continues on Thursday night on ITV2 at 9pm.

Fearne Cotton has revealed that she was ‘highly flirty’ the first time she met her husband.

The 37-year-old presenter married musician Jesse Wood in 2014 and admitted there were ‘fireworks’ when they first met despite previously saying he ‘drives her mental’.

Former Celebrity Juice host Fearne shared the cute anecdote in the forthcoming episode of Shopping With Keith Lemon when the comedian prompted: ‘Did you tell him, “you’re fit”?’

‘No, but I was very, highly flirty,’ Fearne replied spurring the host to dig deeper.

She continued: ‘We said hello and we shook hands, but it was a bit of a slow one like “ohhhh”.

‘So we just chatted from midnight until 7 in the morning, we just chatted.’

Keith then quizzed Fearne on what happened next, asking: ‘Did you make the first move or did he?’ and ‘Did you snog him?’

Indulging the pushy questions, Fearne revealed: ‘I was probably more bolshy. We had a very quick, discreet kiss.’

She also admitted she knew he was the one ‘straight away’.

Shopping With Keith Lemon kicked off earlier this month with Spice Girl Mel B going around a supermarket with the comedian.

Last week saw I’m A Celebrity’s Emily Atack reveal how certain Inbetweeners stars got ‘excited’ during sex scenes.

Shopping With Keith Lemon airs tonight at 10pm on ITV2.

Here’s what you need to know…

Bon Jovi have travelled the world as part of their This House Is Not For Sale tour, sampling all the different types of cuisines countries have to offer.

And where do the Living On A Prayer stars rock up to in the UK?

Straight for a cheeky Nando’s, of course.

According to reports, they racked up a £1,000 bill at the Aintree branch of the chain, ahead of their gig at Anfield football stadium, on Wednesday.

Well, their chicken is peri, peri good.

However, while they were in halloumi heaven, it wasn’t quite as fun for those hangry customers who wanted food at the same time.

In fact, The Mirror states a spokesman confirmed that the restaurant wasn’t able to serve anyone else for around an hour, after the order came through.

Which is not ideal…

One unimpressed customer headed straight to Twitter, claiming they were ‘knocked back’ for the rockstars.

‘Still trying to get over getting knocked back from Nandos last night because they were doing Bon Jovi’s tea,’ they posted.

Just Keep The Faith hun, you’ll Lay Your Hands on some chicken soon…

Metro.co.uk has contacted Nando’s for a comment.

Vikings star Alex Høgh Andersen recalls tense last minute audition: ‘I sat there sweating’

Vikings star Alex Høgh Andersen recalls tense audition (Picture: History)

Vikings star Alex Høgh Andersen might play one of the leading roles in the History Channel hit.

However, it sounds as though Ivar The Boneless could have been played by someone else, as the 24-year-old revealed his audition was last minute.

When talking to Ud & Se, the actor spoke about trying out for the role, and how he was initially set on being one of the other Sons of Ragnar.

He told the publication: ‘I had tried three of the characters in Vikings, but was then asked to try to play Ivar, who is invalid and cannot go [anywhere].

‘They asked me to practice the lines and I sat there sweating and trying to learn a whole new scene and a whole new character.’

Alex spoke about how a lot of the other men trying out for the role played Ivar’s pain after learning he suffered from brittle bone disease.

However, the star decided to take a ‘completely normal’ approach to the character.

He explained: ‘In the first attempt, I forgot my replies, in the second attempt I cluttered them, and in the third attempt I barely escaped.

‘The script writer got up and clapped as I left the room. I was absolutely sure it was too fun.’

But despite what sounded like tense audition, the bosses obviously saw something special in the actor, and we couldn’t imagine anyone else playing Ivar.

Fans of the show are currently getting ready to watch the sixth and final season – which is due to hit our screens ‘soon.’

And it seems Ivar will be going through some changes, as creator Michael Hirst recently revealed the warrior’s story arc will ‘deepen.’

Speaking to Variety, the 66-year-old said: ‘There have been some comments that Ivar is a little two-dimensional and that he hasn’t got any secrets left, or that he’s not as interesting as Ragnar was.

‘The fact is that we’re going to learn a lot more about Ivar in season six.

‘We’re going to see other aspects of his character and things we didn’t expect from him. I’m very pleased with the way his character deepens and changes.’

He also teased how Vikings will ‘visit three new worlds’ in the remaining 20 episodes, and told viewers they should ‘prepare to weep.’

While we don’t know when the next season will drop, we can’t help but feel it will be later this year, as the History Channel teased its release will be ‘soon.’

X-Men and Fantastic Four could join the MCU with standalone character movies, Marvel teases

X-Men and Fantastic Four are still yet to have their grand introduction into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it may be a while before we see the characters link up with the rest of Marvel’s superheroes.

Marvel boss Kevin Feige has confirmed that the studio are still locked in talks about how to merge the X-Men and Fantastic Four characters with the rest of the line-up, but the characters could possibly appear in standalone movies first before joining the crew at large.

Speaking to Fandango, Kevin revealed: ‘Yeah, maybe [Fox characters will appear in non-standalone movies first]. You know, oftentimes it just comes down to a specific character in a specific story and a specific way to introduce them.

‘It’s still early days, but it’s been a fun exercise, and it’s one, by the way, that we’ve been doing for years. Every development meeting starts with cool ideas and fun ideas, and our wheels are always turning in terms of what if… to use a Marvel publishing term. What if we did this? What if we did that?’

Fans have wondered just what the Fantastic Four characters have been up to in recent years with Marvel placing them on the backburner after the last movie, released in 2015, received a disastrous reception.

Still, it did gross $168 million (£132 million) at the box office. Not too shabby.

Mulling over the idea of standalones for X-Men and Fantastic Four, Kevin continued: ‘So sometimes, like with Spider-Man and Black Panther, that made sense.

‘Then, other times, with characters like Iron Man, Captain Marvel, Thor, Doctor Strange, Ant-Man… it’s fun to introduce them in their own movies first.’

The X-Men are currently back on the silver screen with the release of Fox’s Dark Phoenix, which stars Sophie Turner, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Jennifer Lawrence, and focuses on the story of Jean Grey.

However, it didn’t exactly garner the response Fox had received as it received the worst opening for an X-Men film in history.

Kevin, 46, continued: ‘We were one of the few companies that has a lot of characters but didn’t have access to a whole bunch of them, and now that we do, it’s wonderful.

‘They’re back in the sandbox, in the toy chest, and now as ideas come up and as opportunities come up, we can utilise them, which feels really nice.’

Marvel always have a plan.

Love Island’s Arabella Chi has just walked into the villa, ready to cause chaos and couple up with the new cast.

However Charlie Frederick, who was part of last year’s batch of singletons, has claimed they were actually still dating when she jetted off to Mallorca.

Which is so awkward…

Taking to Instagram, the 2018 contestant shared a string of posts on his story, alleging he was in a relationship with the 28-year-old model, and had ‘serious feelings’ for her.

‘Right so this is all an absolute madness for me,’ he began to his 308k followers. ‘Finding out that a person I’m seeing / have a lot of feelings for on a serious level has just strolled into the villa, completely disregarding my feelings and our relationship or what we had, I feel like I have to air these screenshots because I feel like I’ve been completely mugged off.

‘I’m truly upset that Arabella has lied to me about what she was doing and claiming she had a campaign but instead auctioning going into Love Island.

‘And like any relationship we had our ups and downs but these next few screenshots are all within the last 2 weeks. I’m truly gutted and cannot for the life of me figure out why she has done this.’

In a string of now-deleted screenshots, Charlie could be seen having a chat with a person thought to be the model – who ‘begged him’ to come and see her.

And, in another post, Arabella ‘acknowledged she had treated him like s**t’.

The ITV2 star claimed she had been sending him the messages ‘when she was figuring out if she was doing on or not [on] 5th June.’

Hitting out at Love Island producers for casting the starand his other ex, Lucie Donlan – he added: ‘Wow Love Island you wanna have my f****** life anymore?!!! Both my exes in the villa f****** madness [Sic].’

A show spokesperson later told The Sun: ‘We spoke to Arabella before she went into the villa and she is single.’

Despite only being in the villa a matter of minutes, she has already managed to ruffle some feathers with her new co-stars.

Not only do all the girls go into meltdown at their new ‘supermodel’ housemate, Lucie reveals she actually stalked her on social media beforehand – thanks to their mutual ex.

Ermmmm, pretty sure you’re meant to keep that quiet, hun…

While giving her a tour of their dressing room, the surfer screamed: ‘I recognise you! You’re my ex’s ex.

‘I’ve stalked you [on social media] before!’

Fair play…

Love Island continues daily, at 9pm, on ITV2.

Nikki Bella has opened up about her health scare after doctors discovered a cyst on her brain.

The 35-year-old recently revealed she was suffering with a medical issue on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, forcing her to retire from the wrestling ring.

And now, when approached by TMZ, the star spoke about her problem a little more in depth.

She told the publication: ‘They found a cyst in my brain which thank God it’s benign.

‘It’s super scary of course, it’s never something you want to hear, but I am grateful, I’m grateful for my health, I’m grateful it’s benign.’

She explained how it’s something she has to keep her eye on as it could change, adding: ‘It sucks because it keeps you out of the ring.’

Talking into the camera, she told her fans: ‘Go to your doctors, go get your blood taken, I know it may be scary, but you need to know what’s wrong with you, and trust your gut.

‘If you don’t feel right, go and get it handled.’

Nikki has retired from boxing following her health scare, despite wanting to get back in the ring.

However, she does have a glimmer of hope, as she went on to reveal she believes in miracles, telling the site she will ‘see what the man upstairs has in store’ for her.

The wrestler used to be engaged to John Cena before the couple called things off just weeks before their wedding.

Earlier this year, she admitted that seeing her ex move on with someone else would be difficult, however she still hopes he will find happiness.

During the finale of Total Bellas, she said: ‘No matter what, the next time I see him with someone it’s going to kill me.’

The couple got together in 2012 and dated for five years before getting engaged in April 2017.

John proposed to Nikki following their mixed, tag-team match at WrestleMania 33 but almost a year later they called their wedding off.

Catch-22 episode 1 review: George Clooney’s dark comedy of war gets off to flying start

Catch-22, the classic novel on the absurdity of war, has been dying for an adaptation for a while, and finally, they’ve got it.

Thanks to George Clooney, Hulu and Channel 4, the show has finally made the trip over to the UK in one piece. And is it worth it? Well, the jury’s still out a bit on it.

Episode one sees a group of young American bombadiers and soldiers – led by the smart-mouthed ‘Yoyo’ Yossarian (Christopher Abbott) – preparing for a war.

Training them up is the power-mad Scheisskopf (George Clooney) who seems to think justice begins and ends with him. He’s pretty funny for someone who takes himself so seriously. Berating the boys in drills so they’re perfect in every single way, he’s overwhelmingly disliked, and he doesn’t really care.

Deliberately becoming a bombardier so he could undergo months of training in an attempt to run out the clock on the war itself sums Yoyo up. He feels an obligation to be there but that doesn’t mean that he wants to be.

After 25 missions, he’s allowed to go home – it’s now just a case of running out the clock and trying not to die in the process.

It’s easier said than done, and Yossarian’s desire for fight or flight sees him wanting to leave sooner rather than later, but there’s only so much you can fake in front of a nurse and a doctor that sees right through it all.

The only way out? The Catch-22 rule.

Catch-22 is a complicated thing, and is based off the Army’s rules that a man at any point, can declare himself mentally unfit for service – all he has to do is ask. The problem is, the second they do, they are deemed of sound enough mind to recognise it, and therefore are denied the request.

Basically – there is no way out.

When the number of compulsory mission rises by Colonel Cathcar (Kyle Chandler), the trouble really starts, and the loss of friends in war begins to chip away at Yossarian’s actual sanity.

If you had to describing the tone of the series using the war serials that have existed before it, it’s probably like Saving Private Ryan by way of Dad’s Army.

George Clooney’s passion project shows a lot of promise, but as is the trouble with a lot of episode one’s in limited series, the set-up takes a while, and so as a result it feels a lot more slow-paced than most are maybe anticipating.

But the actual visuals of the show are nothing short of beautiful, even in the most horrific moments when things begin to go wrong.

Christopher Abbott is a great leading man for the tough talking, but ultimately very fragile, Yossarian, continually finding himself out of his depth more than he could’ve thought.

There’s a good balance between the horrors of war and the comedy required in order to keep yourself from being submerged in it.

The laughs are found in the strangest of places – like cleaning the blood off a windscreen in the middle of a mission, despite less than 10 minutes before we saw Yoyo’s close friend blown from the skies and onto it, leaving Yoyo traumatised and beginning to realise just how horrific his situation is.

Something tells us it’s only going to get worse, but the light relief, we’re hoping, will be able to keep us interested without making us feel like we’re trapped in a series with no way out.

The episode shows a lot of promise, and though a three out of five might be harsh, it’s just not strong enough to be higher.

Maybe now the show’s gotten off the ground, we can survive the next five missions/episodes without falling asleep or being bogged down too much.

Catch 22 continues Thursdays at 9pm on Channel 4.

Halloween sequel confirmed for 2020 with Jamie Lee Curtis but fans are divided over ‘money grab’

It seems there is life after Michael Myers as a Halloween sequel has been confirmed for next year with its lead star, Jamie Lee Curtis, expected to return.

However, fans of the iconic horror franchise are wondering just how the sequel will continue the story with deranged serial killer Michael Myers seemingly dying at the end of the 2018 reboot.

According to Collider, Blumhouse will begin shooting Halloween 2 after Labor Day in the US with Universal eyeing up a 16 October 2020.

Jamie, 60, is highly tipped to reprise her role as Laurie Strode, with Judy Greer and Andi Matichak expected to return as Karen and Allison respectively.

Also reportedly returning to the fold is David Gordon Green, who wrote the incredibly successful 2018 movie. John Carpenter, who directed the original Halloween in 1978, is rumoured to step on-board again as an executive producer.

Last year’s Halloween reboot was an unprecedented success, grossing an eye-watering $255 million at the global box office.

It saw Jamie return as Laurie 40 years on from the original Halloween horrors, when Michael hunted down and murdered her school friends.

On the anniversary of fright night, The Shape escaped from the mental asylum to track down the one victim who got away – Laurie.

But the reboot was intended to conclude the events of the first movie with Laurie, appearing to kill Michael and earn the closure she’s so desperately needed for four decades.

The last viewers saw Michael, he was trapped in her basement in a fire and is believed to have perished to death.

So how will the story further with the lead villain? Fans seem to be completely divided over the prospect of the Michael Myers story being drawn out yet again.

‘Was absolutely thrilled when Halloween 2018 was announced & was even more amped after seeing the movie. Feeling nothing but disappointment over this announcement. H2018 was a perfect bookend film & should be where the franchise ends. To quote Dr. Loomis: It needs to die!’ one viewer said.

Slamming the sequel as a ‘money grab’, another said: ‘Couldn’t agree more. It’s just a money grab. Unless they are taking the franchise in a totally different direction, meaning Michael is truly dead and someone else is going to be the shape.’

Offering a theory as to the new killer, they added: ‘They did leave the movie off with the granddaughter’s hand on the butcher knife.’

Another chimed in: ‘I don’t care how many sequels you make just let the Strode storyline die. I mean what’s the point if you know they’re never going to get away? I mean I guess we can’t really call her a *Final* girl anymore, eh?’

While one hailed it a ‘soulless cash grab’, another disagreed: ‘I’m excited! I loved the latest installment.’

Jamie has previously said she would be thrilled to return to the Halloween franchise for another sequel, and told Entertainment Weekly in November: ‘I’d be happy to do it, sure.

‘This was an extraordinary experience. David was a fantastic director, writer, but obviously this 2018, 40th anniversary, was Laurie’s story, and obviously there are now other people’s stories that would need to get told.’

She added: ‘But Laurie’s story was told beautifully this year, and I would have no way of knowing how they would incorporate her into future.’

Tonight’s episode of Love Island saw Danny Williams go on a date with new bombshell Arabella Chi, leaving Yewande Biala open to being dumped from the villa.

But Yewande’s cold behaviour towards Danny over the last few days has left viewers frustrated.

Confiding in the girls the stunning Irish scientist said: ‘If he goes on this date and he gets on with her then that’s absolutely fine.

‘I’ve emotionally prepared myself for that to happen because in my head I already knew it was going to happen. I have zero trust in men!’

Later her good pal Michael Griffiths gave her some advice and said he thinks she’s letting ‘past experiences’ cloud her perspective.

‘You need to be brutally honest with him,’ he advised.

After the date, Danny reassured Yewande saying he’s attracted to her and wants to keep getting to know her but they can’t move forward if she doesn’t speak about her feelings.

Views have been taking to Twitter to comment on the situation.

One fan wrote: ‘Yewande you’re playing yourself love. He’s gonna get to know her because you barely speak to him not because you were right all along #loveisland,’

While another added: ‘Noooooo Yewande this is classic self sabotage it’s all in your head. he’s given you nothing but attention & reassurance & you already had in your end it was going to end before it even started? what do you expect.. #LoveIsland.’

Another fan said: ‘yewande pls bby ive been in your corner this entire time #loveisland.’

However, the episode had somewhat of a happy ending when Danny and Yewande talked through their feelings and made out in front of everyone.

Let’s hope it lasts.

Meanwhile, since leaving the villa, Elma Pazar has claimed that all the contestants are secretly pleasuring themselves off camera.

Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2.

Love Island threw another bombshell into the villa in the form or Arabella Chi, and it looks like she might have eyes for Anton.

Yes, the islanders appeared to hit it off in their first ever date together.

When entering the show, the 28-year-old received a text where she was asked to choose two boys she’d like to get to know better.

After weighing up her options, the influencer decided to pick both Danny (who is coupled up with Yewande) and Anton.

And while both of her dates went well, it seems viewers are rooting for her to pick the latter.

After leaving the date, Anton went back to the boys where he told them just how well it went.

He revealed: ‘I just feel like it really went well it shocked me that.’

‘But you know when you just keep talking and talking,’ he beamed before adding: ‘She said she just wants to get to know me more.’

‘I don’t think it could have gone any better, she was laughing and finding me funny.’

Opening up to his pals, the much loved reality star said: ‘I feel like I have a purpose in here now, I’m buzzing.’

And it seems his fans at home are too, as they couldn’t help but take to Twitter where they cheered the singleton on.

‘Pick Anton, pick Anton,’ someone wrote, while another added: ‘I never thought I’d say it but… I’m rooting for Anton you know.’

‘I really hope that Arabella and Anton couple up :) they get on so well xx’ another confessed.

And it seems others were feeling the same: ‘I really hope she prefers Anton. Love the lad.’

Anton got off to a rough start after getting pied by Amy, Amber and Lucie. He then went after Anna, who eventually ended up coupling off with Sherif.

After this, he tried his luck with Elma, and just as things were going good, she ended up getting dumped from the villa.

Hopefully now a new girl has come onto the show, Anton might finally be able to find love.

Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2.

Love Island viewers convinced Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae had sex in shocking bedroom scene

Love Island’s Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague turned things up a notch tonight and fans are now convinced the couple had sex.

After last night’s ‘huge’ revelation, Tommy, 20, and Molly, also 20, were seen under the covers as Thursday night’s episode drew to a close.

There was plenty of love in the air with Danny Williams and Yewande Biala quite literally kissing and making up, while Michael Griffith and Amber Gill were also seen getting steamy after the lights went out.

But Tommy and Molly seemed to be doing a little more than kissing and cuddling, with viewers noticing ‘thrusting’ movements and heavy breathing. Molly then remarked: ‘Jesus Christ.’

Wowza.

It follows yesterday’s episode where Molly seemed to get handsy with Tommy while exclaiming in shock: ‘It’s f*****g huge.’

Viewers are now convinced that Tommy and Molly did the deed, possibly making them the first of this year’s Love Islanders to do so.

Noticing the questionable behaviour, one ITV viewer remarked: ‘Excuse me but what were Tommy and Molly-Mae doing under the covers then???’

Our sentiments exactly.

Wondering if the couple are aware that they’re on a huge TV show, an equally inquisitive viewer asked: ‘Do Tommy n mollie know they film at night ??’

The episode got very awkward for some unfortunate Love Island viewers, like this one who said: ‘Watching molly and tommy getting it on and pretending i have no idea what they are doing in front of my parents.’

Yikes.

Maybe watch tomorrow night’s episode without mum and dad.

Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV.

Love Island’s Arabella Chi has ruffled all the feathers since stepping foot in the villa.

And none more so than the 38-year-old’s ‘ex’, former Islander Charlie Frederick – who is having an awkward time watching the latest series.

Not only does he have one ex on the show, but he also dated Lucie Donlan at one point, making his viewing experience a little more difficult.

And, taking to Instagram, the reality star shared a snap with his 311k followers, showing the surfer, 21, and model climbing into bed together before going to sleep.

‘Raaaaa gotta laugh ain’t ya (sic),’ he captioned the shot.

Well, at least he’s managed to find the humour in it all…

However, it’s not all fun and games for Charlie, who claimed he was actually still dating Arabella when she jetted off to the Mallorcan villa, earlier this month.

In a post on his Instagram story, the 2018 contestant shared a string of posts alleging they were in a committed relationship, and that he had ‘serious feelings’ for her.

‘Right so this is all an absolute madness for me,’ he began.

‘Finding out that a person I’m seeing / have a lot of feelings for on a serious level has just strolled into the villa, completely disregarding my feelings and our relationship or what we had, I feel like I have to air these screenshots because I feel like I’ve been completely mugged off.

‘I’m truly upset that Arabella has lied to me about what she was doing and claiming she had a campaign but instead auctioning going into Love Island.

‘And like any relationship we had our ups and downs but these next few screenshots are all within the last 2 weeks. I’m truly gutted and cannot for the life of me figure out why she has done this.’

In a string of now-deleted screenshots, Charlie could be seen having a chat with a person thought to be the model – who ‘begged him’ to come and see her.

And, in another post, Arabella ‘acknowledged she had treated him like s**t’.

He claimed she had been sending him the messages ‘when she was figuring out if she was doing on or not [on] 5th June.’

Hitting out at Love Island producers for casting not one, but two of his exes, he added: ‘Wow Love Island you wanna have my f****** life anymore?!!! Both my exes in the villa f****** madness [Sic].’

A show spokesperson later told The Sun: ‘We spoke to Arabella before she went into the villa and she is single.’

And it seems Charlie is the furthest thing from her mind, as she has been spending her brief time in the villa getting very close to both Danny Williams and Anton Danyluk.

As well as cosying up with Lucie, of course…

Love Island continues daily, at 9pm, on ITV2.

Irina Shayk and Bradley Cooper split earlier this month, after four years together.

And the model was all smiles as she was back on mummy duties, following the news.

The 33-year-old was spotted out with their two-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine, as they enjoyed a day out in New York.

She could be seen rocking a black dress with a khaki trench coat, coupled with beige wellington boots and oversized sunglasses.

So she’s prepared for absolutely any weather to hit the Big Apple, duh.

It seems her daughter was well up for the wellies trend, opting for a bright yellow pair herself.

We’re a little jealous of her whole outfit…

Their outing comes after it was revealed Irina was still living in 44-year-old Bradley’s LA home, in order to give Lea a smooth transition.

‘They’ll coordinate to make sure their daughter is always with one parent,’ an insider claimed to Us Weekly.

‘When Lea has important events in her life, both Bradley and Irina will be there.’

But, despite only splitting recently, the former couple are keen to start dating other people.

‘They want to date, and won’t be shy about meeting people or being set up,’ the source added.

‘They’re closing a long chapter of their lives, but they’re ready to see what’s next.’

Bradley first went public with Irina back in 2015, and they welcomed their daughter two years later.

They have been notoriously private about their romance, though rumours have surrounded the couple ever since promotion for A Star Is Born, earlier this year.

Y’know, when the actor enjoyed a very intimate performance of Shallow with Lady Gaga at the Oscars.

Following awards season, he reportedly tried to save his relationship, trying to ‘slow down’ his career in a bid to spend more time with his family.

Another source added to People Magazine: ‘Since Bradley and Irina have always been very private about their relationship few knew there was really for sure something going on.’

Gordon Ramsay wants to remix Lil Nas X’s new song Panini and it would actually be perfect

We need to know how a Lil Nas X and Gordon Ramsay collab would sound (Picture: AFF-USA, Rex)

First it was Billy Ray Cyrus and now it seems Gordon Ramsay might come to Lil Nas X’s rescue.

Fresh from the success of his number one hit Old Town Road, the 21-year-old rapper has released his latest single, Panini, which isn’t as much an ode to the tasty hot sandwiches as you might think.

Regardless, Lil Nas X sent a plea for Gordon, 52, to hop on the track and, surprisingly, the TV chef is more than up for it.

Sounds like a perfect fit to us.

After releasing the song on Thursday, Lil Nas X tweeted: ‘Tryna get gordon ramsay on this panini remix.’

The British chef replied: ‘Tell me more…’

Yes, please do tell us more Lil Nas. Like when is this happening and what will it take for us to feature on a track?

Gordon Ramsay tweets about Lil Nas X collaboration on Panini remix

Fans are fully embracing the idea, with one quipping: ‘Gordon be cookin more than just food,’ while another excitedly predicted: ‘Did somebody say “song of the summer!”?’

Masterchef team have also given their seal of approval, tweeting: ‘The collab we never we needed.’

If Lil Nas X and Gordon do hook up in the studio, they’ll be under pressure to match the success of the rapper’s breakout hit Old Town Road, which reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and UK charts.

The track was removed from Billboard’s country chart as it was deemed not country enough, but Billy Ray remixed the song, propelling it to number one.

Comparing the quality of Panini to his breakout, Lil Nas X told Zane Lowe on Beats 1: ‘Old Town Road wasn’t done in a professional studio, that’s the thing.

‘It was never even mixed and mastered. Like the song that you hear today, it’s not mixed or mastered. That’s from the $20 bucks I paid [for] the rough mix. It was crazy, but it’s like everything else… lately in my life.’

Mick Jagger has returned to the stage for the first time since his heart surgery.

And it’s like the Rollings Stones legend never left.

Taking to Instagram, he shared a snap of himself during rehearsals ahead of the Satisfaction singers’ concert in Chicago.

‘Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow! #stonesnofilter,’ the 75-year-old captioned the shot for his adoring fans.

He could be seen gazing up at the soon-to-be-filled stands with a huge smile on his face, happier than ever.

We are living for it.

And it seems 1.7million followers feel the same, flooding the comments with all the praise.

https://www.instagram.com/p/By8HaddhEAH/

‘You look great,’ one replied, while a fan said: ‘You look STUNNING king, we all can’t wait.’

‘Looking fabulous Mick. Have a great show tomorrow and best wishes for an amazing tour, see you soon! X,’ a follower wrote.

While another added: ‘Wish you all the best Mick.’

Mick left fans concerned after he underwent heart surgery, just a few weeks ago – meaning his bandmates were forced to reschedule a string of their concerts so he could recuperate.

‘Unfortunately today the Rolling Stones have had to announcement the postponement of their upcoming US/Canada tour dates,’ a statement read at the time.

Mick’s fans rushed to praise his return to the stage (Picture: Getty)

‘We apologise for any inconvenience this causes those who have tickets to shows but wish to reassure fans to hold onto these existing tickets, as they will be valid for rescheduled dates, which will be announced shortly.

‘Mick has been advised by doctors that he cannot go on tour at this time, as he needs medical treatment.

‘The doctors have advised Mick that he is expected to make a complete recovery so that he can get back on stage as soon as possible.’

And he has managed to make a super speedy recovery.

In his first interview following the operation, the dad-of-eight insisted: ‘I’m feeling pretty good.

Nothing can ever stop Mick (Picture: Getty)

‘Been rehearsing a lot lately in the last few weeks … This morning [I did] a bit of gym. Nothing crazy.

‘Then I go into rehearsal with the rest of the band.’

Having major surgery hasn’t stopped the rocker in his tracks, as he revealed we’ll be seeing way more of him.

‘I don’t do it all the time, [like] 12 months a year,’ he continued. ‘When you’re young, that’s what you do.

‘[Today I] spend three or four months on the road in a year and that seems to be quite a good balance.’

Whatever works for you, hun.
