Bella Hadid put her health first as she jetted out of Milan this weekend, wearing a face mask after the coronavirus outbreak hit parts of Italy.

The 23-year-old model flew out of the country on Sunday (23 February) after a busy few days of walking in several Milan Fashion Week shows and clearly wasn’t taking any chances with her health.

In an Instagram story video, Bella is seen sitting on a plane with a mask covering her mouth and nose.

‘Next city lets go [sic],’ she captioned the clip.

The model was joined by her model sister Gigi Hadid and their mother Yolanda Hadid, and the group were seen walking through the airport together without face masks.

It comes after the number of cases of Covid-19 soared in Italy just a few days.

The coronavirus has so far claimed two lives in Italy with more than 100 cases reported in the northern regions of Lombardy and Veneto.

The outbreak impacted Milan Fashion Week with Giorgio Armani forced to make a major change to their 4pm showcase.

In a statement, the fashion brand said: ‘The show will be shown behind closed doors, due to the recent developments of coronavirus in Italy, live-streamed in front of an empty teatro on the Armani website, therefore please do not attend the show this afternoon.’

Victoria Beckham recently revealed how coronavirus had impacted fashion brands at London Fashion Week.

Bella had a busy schedule this season of Milan Fashion Week, walking for a number of designers including Missoni, Boss, Moschino, Max Mara, Versace, Tod, Fendi.

The fashion muse did find time to hang out with her model pals and was seen heading to the Fondazione Prada exhibition with Emily Ratajkowski.

Gigi joined her sister at several shows but also had other personal business to deal with at the weekend.

The 24-year-old was forced to defend her boyfriend Zayn Malik after YouTuber Jake Paul slammed the singer.

‘Bro he literally started yelling and freaking the f**k out. “you wanna test me mate”. lol I feel bad for childhood stars,’ Jake claimed in a Twitter post.

Gigi replied: ‘Lol cause he doesn’t care to hang w you and your embarrassing crew of YouTube groupies ..?

‘Home alone with his best friends like a respectful king cause he has me, sweetie. Unbothered by your irrelevant ugly a**. Go to bed [sic].’

Viewers tuning into Good Morning Britain on Monday might well have been surprised to see Piers Morgan absent from the show.

Piers normally takes his place on the show alongside Susanna Reid from Monday-Wednesday – except this morning he was replaced by Susanna’s former BBC Breakfast co-host BIll Turnbull – with the pair reuniting as presenters for the first time in six years.

So just where is Piers and when will he be returning?

Here’s what you need to know…

Where is Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain?

There’s no big mystery – Piers is just on holiday this week, with Bill stepping in to fill his Monday-Wednesday slot on the show.

The 64-year-old had a fond reunion with Susanna as the pair hugged onscreen before explaining that it had been some time since they last hosted a show together.

We last presented together six years ago,’ she told audiences. ‘We launched BBC Breakfast’s move to Salford back in 2012.

‘We joked that you should come back when Piers wasn’t here on the air in front of Piers… and someone took it seriously!’

Tweet from Piers Morgan

Good Morning Britain was also quick to welcome Bill to the show, saying: ‘Safe to say @susannareid100 is quite happy you’re on holiday this week @piersmorgan.

When is Piers back on the show?

Good Morning Britain have confirmed to metro.co.uk that Piers will be back in the hotseat next week.

Good Morning Britain airs Monday-Friday at 6am on ITV.

Bill Turnbull steps in as Good Morning Britain guest bashes Meghan Markle: ‘This is turning into an attack’

Bill Turnbull was forced to step in during a Good Morning Britain debate where a guest continuously bashed Meghan Markle.

The 64-year-old presenter interrupted royal biographer and journalist Tom Brewer during a discussion about Prince Harry and Meghan’s statement over the weekend, which pointed out that while they would not use the Sussex Royal brand, the Queen doesn’t have ‘jurisdiction’ over the word.

Tom quickly launched into a tirade against the Duchess and began: ‘That statement was really spiteful fury by Meghan. Meghan gets what Meghan wants.

‘What was spiteful was that she married into the royal family not so long ago, she knew exactly the terms. She wanted to bail out and she wants to bail out on her terms.’

He continued: ‘She was continuously putting out her versions of events which contradicted the actual facts and so she became a political person as much as a mother and a wife.

‘She didn’t make errors. When she didn’t tell the truth about the time of the birth of baby Archie, when she tried to deliberately confuse people about the time of the birth…’

But before Tom could continue, Bill intervened and stopped the guest’s train of thought.

‘Hold on Tom, let’s just stop for a second,’ Bill interrupted. ‘Let’s try and get back on what we’re supposed to be talking about which, is the misuse of the brand.

‘This is turning into an attack on Meghan.’

Viewers were quick to praise Bill for stepping in on social media, with one writing: ‘Calm. Respectful. And not afraid to step in when someone’s hateful comments are all targeted towards one person (Meghan).

‘More of Bill Turnbull on our screens please.’

Echoing a similar sentiment, another said: ‘I am so glad that Bill stepped in on #GMB and stopped Tom continuously verbally bashing Meghan.’


Bill reunited with Susanna Reid to present together on Good Morning Britain for the first time in six years.

The duo, who launched BBC Breakfast together in Salford back in 2012, will front the ITV series

Love Island’s South African villa has officially closed its doors for the first time – but they couldn’t resist one last party to celebrate Paige and Finn’s win before they did!

Iain Stirling, Laura Whitmore and the final four couples led the revelry at the party, with the team making the most of their time together as the series officially ended.

Laura, who wore a red pant suit with a heart shaped hole in the chest, was definitely feeling the love as she grabbed the gang for selfies and explored the villa.

Hosting the evening’s events, the star was keen to let her hair down as she enjoyed spending time with the loved ones in the team.

Among the snaps she shared, Laura was seen posing in front of the iconic neon ‘Love’ sign by the front entrance, complete with finger hearts.

She later posed with the winning pair Paige and Finn as they let their hair down and partied the night away, later grabbing a drink and a selfie with Jess and Demi.

Laura’s boyfriend and Love Island’s voiceover maestro, Iain Stirling, was seen standing proud as he watched her host the final show, proudly declaring her ‘my queen’ as she stood on the balcony overlooking the crowd blow.

Evita, eat your heart out.

He then headed to the lads’ bedroom for a quick mirror selfie.

Impressionist Luke Kempner was back in action, joining Luke M and Ched in their suits-no-socks trend which they were keen to show off in a cheeky pic.

He later collapsed on the Beach Hut chair in the most sophisticated manner possible in a snazzy red and white suit.

Last night, Paige and Finn were crowned the winner of the first winter series ever – with Paige being given control of the £50,000 prize pot they earned as a reward.

Continuing the trend of splitting the pot instead of seizing the opportunity to steal, Paige and Finn both went away £25k richer.

Laura and Iain later joked they wouldn’t have done the same… and for £50k who could blame them!

Siannise and Luke T came second, Demi and Luke M came third, and Jess and Ched placed fourth.

The group’s high spirits were marked with sadness however, following the death of Caroline Flack on 15 February.

The finale was dedicated to her memory, with a special tribute video honouring her time as the leading lady of the show being aired at the beginning of the episode.

Islanders were only told of her passing once they finished their time on the show, and away from the cameras to allow the team to look after them and not air their grief.

For the finalists, this meant they were only told on Saturday, a full week after her death.

Love Island is available now on ITV Player.

Jake Paul deletes tweets about Zayn Malik and blames them on the booze after being destroyed by Gigi Hadid

It seems that getting totally bodied by Gigi Hadid has given Jake Paul a change of heart about his attack on Zayn Malik.

In the first truly iconic Twitter smackdown of the decade, the YouTuber was pretty much destroyed by Gigi after he tried to start an online feud with the Pillowtalk singer following Tyson Fury’s heavyweight win over Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas.

And Jake, 23, has now, in the immortal words of Jamie Foxx and T-Pain, blamed it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol.

The vlogger turned boxer deleted his tweets about Zayn, calling himself a ‘f***ing idiot’.

Jake tweeted: ‘someone needs to take my phone when i’m drunk because I am a f***ing idiot’, with the tweets that started the whole palaver wiped from his feed.

The star had posted: ‘almost had to clap up zane from 1 direction because he is a little guy and has an attitude and basically told me to f*** off for no reason when I was being nice to him….

‘zane ik you’re reading this… stop being angry cause u came home alone to ur big ass hotel room hahaha [sic].’

Jake, the younger brother of Logan Paul, continued: ‘bro he literally started yelling and freaking the f*** out “you wanna test me mate” lol I feel bad for childhood stars.’

Unfortunately for Jake, Zayn’s girlfriend Gigi saw the tweet and was apparently in the mood for some destruction.

The 24-year-old model replied: ‘Lol cause he doesn’t care to hang w you and your embarrassing crew of YouTube groupies ..? Home alone with his best friends like a respectful king cause he has me, sweetie. Unbothered by your irrelevant ugly ass. Go to bed …’

Yikes. 

Jake’s ex-girlfriend Alissa Violet was also living for the drama, replying to Gigi: ‘go off sis ily’, while the rest of the internet was wincing at the burn from Miss Hadid.

Let’s hope Jake had plenty of aloe vera. 

Zayn, 27, has yet to respond to Jake’s now-deleted tweets but we reckon he’s chuckling to himself in that ‘big ass hotel room’.

Both Zayn and Jake were in Las Vegas to watch Tyson Fury take on Deontay Wilder in the huge boxing match, with the British athlete trouncing his opponent to be named new WBC heavyweight champion.

Posting a snap from the side of the ring earlier in the night, Zayn was one of many famous faces backing the Gypsy King, tweeting: ‘@Tyson_Fury proud to be a Brit. What a fight.. incredible night.’

New Resident Evil 3 remake screenshots leak, including close-ups of Nemesis

A handful of Resident Evil 3 remake screenshots have popped up online and show off some new ugly-looking monsters alongside Nemesis.

Fans don’t have much longer to wait for the release of the Resident Evil 3 remake, and to re-experience the fear/thrill of being hunted by Nemesis.

In the meantime, though, a number of images have leaked online, and there are quite a lot of them.

While the images don’t necessarily reveal anything majorly new, or spoil any story/gameplay details (in fact, most of it appears to be concept art), it may tide over fans who are anxious to see how much has changed from the original game.

A couple of the images, which were initially leaked by French website Gamergen, shared on ResetEra and then compiled on Imgur, do show off some of the monsters protagonist Jill Valentine will have to fight as she attempts to escape Raccoon City.

Aside from being even more gruesome than the creatures from the PlayStation original, one of them appears to be a redesign of a boss called the Grave Digger. So it seems Nemesis isn’t the only monster returning.

Aw, he’s adorable! Can we keep him? (Pic: Capcom via Gamergen)

Speaking of Nemesis, we also get a couple of close-ups of his gruesome visage with him brandishing his new flamethrower. A couple of the images show him without it, though, which could mean he won’t always have it on him. Hopefully, he’ll transition into wielding his more iconic rocket launcher.

It’s hard to tell, but it also looks like there might have been a slight redesign of Nemesis, whose teeth and nose looked a bit odd in some early promotional artwork and was mocked by some fans.

A bunch of the images appear to show concept art and in-game screenshots of the game’s new multiplayer mode, Resident Evil Resistance, as well. Specifically, we can see some of the mode’s player characters and a number of environments that it can take place in, including a casino, a diner, and what looks like an Egyptian tomb.

Resident Evil 3 will release on 3 April for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Jameela Jamil refuses to continue Piers Morgan feud ‘out of respect’ for Caroline Flack

Jameela Jamil has stated she will no longer continue to feud with Piers Morgan over Twitter after she criticised the TV presenter for sharing Caroline Flack’s private messages.

The pair clashed again over the weekend when Piers, 54, shared DMs which Caroline had previously sent him and included her stating that she was ‘struggling’ with Jameela.

At the time of Caroline’s private message, Jameela had criticised Caroline’s now-scrapped Channel 4 show The Surjury, which was set to feature a group of people pitching to win cosmetic surgery for themselves.

Caroline died by suicide on 15 February at the age of 40 so her private messages were seemingly published without her consent.

Now putting an end to her public row with Piers, Jameela tweeted on Monday: ‘Out of respect for Caroline, I will not allow this conversation to carry on in which she can’t respond or speak for herself.

‘She would be disgusted her personal messages were shared and weaponized against a woman, by a bullying parasite she thought was her friend. I’m out.’

The Good Place actress added: ‘To sell your dead friends private messages for clicks is a low I’ve never imagined anyone capable of [sic].’

Jameela Jamil Piers Morgan

In response to a Jameela supporter, Piers had earlier tweeted: ‘The abuse I’m currently getting from her followers is disgusting.’

Their latest Twitter row was sparked after Good Morning Britain host Piers tweeted: ‘Jameela Jamil is having a lot to say about online harassment, so in the interests of balance, here is a message Caroline Flack sent me last October after the same Jameela Jamil led an online pile-on against her regarding a new TV show she was doing.’

In screenshots posted by Piers, Caroline had written: ‘Please have pictures… I’m struggling with Jameela. The hate she aims at me.’

Jameela then hit back: ‘I simply said I found the show “surjury” (not her) problematic for kids to watch. And that love island needed some more diversity. Both times Caroline instigated debate with ME even though I was not targeting or blaming her at all. I always just politely explained my point.’

In recent weeks, Jameela has faced an onslaught of backlash after claims from one Twitter user that she has Munchausen’s syndrome went viral.

Munchausen’s syndrome is a mental disorder in which a person repeatedly or deliberately acts as if they have a physical or mental illness when they are not actually sick.

Jameela has denied having the syndrome and hit back at the ‘bullying’ she has received on social media since.

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are happy families as they take son Silas to lunch in New York

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel proved their marriage was better than ever during a day out in New York on Sunday.

The couple’s romance was hit by split rumours after Justin was caught getting cosy with his co-star Alisha Wainwright during a boozy night out in November.

But the Lovestoned singer, 39, and The Sinner actress, 37, looked like they’d well and truly moved on from the controversy as they treated their son Silas to a late lunch in downtown Manhattan.

The couple – who tied the knot in 2012 – were seen chatting and laughing as they strolled along with four-year-old Silas in a buggy.

Justin was all affectionate with his lady love, wrapping an arm around Jessica as they walked along.

‘Drama? What drama?’ we could practically hear them asking.

Well – let us tell you.

Things all got a little bit awkward last year when Justin was spotted holding hands with Alisha, his Palmer co-star, at a bar in Nashville. He also wasn’t wearing his wedding ring at the time.

Alisha was seen putting her hand on Justin’s knee under the table as the cast went out during a break from filming.

Soon after, the SexyBack singer issued a public apology to wife Jessica insisting nothing happened between himself and Alisha and saying sorry for ’embarrassing’ Jessica.

‘A few weeks ago I displayed a strong lapse in judgement – but let me be clear – nothing happened between me and my co-star,’ Justin wrote.

Jessica Biel

‘I drank way too much that night and I regret my behaviour. I should have known better,’ he went on.

‘This is not the example I want to set for my son.’

And it has been claimed the dad-of-one has been doing everything he can to repair their relationship ever since.

‘He’s bending over backwards to get Jessica to forgive him and to make sure he’s there for her and Silas,’ an insider said.

Jessica proved she was over the whole thing as she shared a sweet message to ‘timeless’ Justin on his birthday at the end of last month.

PS5 secret features hinted at again, this time by Metro Redux developer

4A Games’ chief tech guru has implied that the PlayStation 5 has some kind of unannounced new ability, as hinted at previously by Sony.

It’s getting on for a year now since Sony first announced the PlayStation 5, and yet still we know virtually nothing of importance about the console.

What everyone’s really waiting for is for Sony to offer a proper reveal of the console and its games, but they’ve given no hint as to when that might happen and their plans to do so may already have had to change due to the coronavirus outbreak.

There’s still no real clue about any of the Sony-made games that will be released for the PlayStation 5, but both Sony, and now a third party developer, have hinted that the console itself may have hidden secrets of its own.

Back in early January, PlayStation boss Jim Ryan made the following, intriguing comment: ‘There are still more unique elements for PlayStation 5 to come that separate it from previous consoles. The ‘bigger differences’ have yet to be announced.’

Especially as it came from Sony, that could mean anything, but now Metro Redux developer 4A Games has also hinted at important, unannounced features.

Talking to Digital Foundry, chief technical officer Oles Shishkovstov was asked about confirmed features such as the fast-loading of the SSD (solid-state drive) but answered instead that he was, ‘more excited for not yet publicly revealed things’.

Shishkovstov gave no hint as to what he was thinking of and it’s not clear if he’s talking about a component, a feature of something like the controller, or a new software ability.

He does talk a lot about ray-tracing though, stating that, ‘We are fully into ray-tracing, dropping old school techniques completely’.

‘We experimented a lot, and with spectacular results so far’, he adds. ‘You will need to wait to see what we implement into our future projects.’

Shishkovstov could be talking about something different than Ryan originally was, especially as his comment seems to be about the next gen consoles generally and not the PlayStation 5 specifically. But if that’s the case why would Microsoft and Sony both want to keep the same thing secret?

The truth is we’ll just have to wait and see, with currently no clue as to when either new console will be discussed again in detail – even though they’re both supposed to be out this Christmas.

As for 4A Games, series creator Dmitry Glukhovsky recently announced that there would be a new game, presumably to be developed by 4A – so it’s likely to be work on that, or possibly a next gen remaster of Metro Exodus, that Shishkovstov is referencing.

Love Island presenter Laura Whitmore has praised the finalists of the first-ever winter series for helping her ‘more than they’ll ever know’.

The 34-year-old host, who crowned Paige Turley and Finley Tapp winners in a nail-biting finale last night, thanked the last batch of contestants in a heartwarming post shared on Instagram.

Sharing a series of photos with Paige, Finn, runners-up Siannise Fudge and Luke Trotman, and the rest of the team, Laura wrote: ‘Your Love Islander Winners and finalists!!

‘Their warmth, kindness and smiley faces helped me more than they’ll ever know.’

Laura dedicated last night’s finale episode of Love Island to her late friend Caroline Flack.

Following footage of the islanders embracing their last morning in the South African villa, cameras cut to Laura who dedicated this year’s final to her friend.

She choked up as she told viewers at home how ‘difficult’ the past week has been for her and the Love Island team.

Laura said: ‘Caroline loved Love Island and that’s why tonight’s final is dedicated to her.’

A montage of Caroline’s time on Love Island then followed, showing the presenter throughout the series over the years, her interactions with contestants and her infectious laugh playing out.

Finley Tapp and Paige Turley

Caroline died on Saturday, 15 February, with a lawyer for the Flack family later confirming she had taken her own life.

Love Island had cancelled two shows, following news of her death, but returned days later while honouring Caroline in a moving tribute that was voiced by show voiceover Iain Stirling.

Laura confirmed that Love Island will be returning to our screens later this year with its iconic summer series.

‘If you’re at home and thinking, “Get me in that villa”, then I have a treat for you. The next series we’ll be heading back to sunny Majorca this summer,’ she announced, before adding that applications are open.

Love Island is due to return to ITV2 in the summer.

Peter Kay is returning to the stage with new dates, three years after he cancelled his tour due to ‘unforeseen family circumstances’.

However, stand-up fans will have to wait a little bit longer.

The 46-year-old has announced a string of Dance For Life dates, on which he will act as DJ.

The dates – which will see venues turned into massive club nights – will also feature Car Share actress Sian Gibson, with tickets raising money for Cancer Research UK.

Kay said: ‘I’ve honestly never had so much fun as I had working on Dance For Life.

‘The atmosphere was so happy and positive; it really is a great way to raise money for the worthiest of causes. All people have to do is turn up and dance.’


And Caro Evans, director of partnerships at Cancer Research UK, added: ‘We are so grateful to Peter for hosting his epic Dance For Life events to help us fund vital research to beat cancer.  

‘We need as many people as possible to join Peter and make a difference by dancing the night away.’

The charity dance-a-thon will take place in April and May, with dates in Manchester, Liverpool and London’s Alexandra Palace. 

Since 2016, Peter has held 14 Dance For Life dates, raising thousands for Cancer Research UK.

These new dates come amid a two-year hiatus for Kay, who has been taking time out of the limelight since cancelling his 2019 tour. 

A statement released in 2017 read: ‘Due to unforeseen family circumstances, I deeply regret I am having to cancel all of my upcoming work projects. This unfortunately includes my upcoming stand-up tour, Dance For Life shows and any outstanding live work commitments. 

‘My sincerest apologies. This decision has not been taken lightly and I’m sure you’ll understand my family must always come first.

‘I’ve always endeavoured to project my family’s privacy from the media. I hope that the media and the public will continue to respect our privacy at this time. 

‘Once again, I’m very sorry.’

While Peter cancelled all work commitments, he was back on our screens for the previously filmed final series of Car Share, and it has been claimed the BBC has had a ‘conversation’ with the Phoenix Nights star for a comeback.

A source told The Sun: ‘There is no rush and whatever happens will always be dictated by Peter but a new project has been discussed.

‘It’s exciting news for Peter’s fans, who have yet to see the void left by Car Share filled.’

Tickets for Dance For Life go on sale at 9am on Friday 28 February.

All good things must eventually come to an end, even Modern Family.

The cast of the American comedy series gathered together for the show’s final wrap party at Sunset Room Hollywood in Los Angeles and it was bittersweet.

While they were celebrating 11 years of working together and producing some top comedy, it was also the end of an era working with friends for life.

Sarah Hyland, who plays Haley Dunphy, summed it all up pretty well on Instagram.

Sharing snaps of her with her on-screen siblings Ariel Winter and Nolan Gould, she referenced how she had co-ordinated with Ariel for the party.

‘I love these people with all my heart,’ she wrote.

’11 years together is proof you and your TV sister will start wearing the same outfit, siblings for life will be made, and you’ll forever fight over the same professor.

‘We’ll always be Dunphys and we’ll always have each other.’

Many of the other cast members posted highlights from the wrap party across their social media after filming the last episode on Friday.

Sofia Vergara, the actress behind Gloria, wrote: ‘I will never forget this set, the people, there were only good times.

‘Thank you Modern Family. Thank you Gloria Pritchett.’

https://www.instagram.com/p/B827MC0lIv3/

Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who played Mitchell Pritchett, gave us a detailed account on his Instagram stories of how they all had to enter the party through a massive closet, honouring the sitcom’s Pritchett’s Closets & Blinds family business.

Then Jesse’s on-screen daughter Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, 12, also posted a heartfelt tribute.

‘Ok, NOW it’s a wrap. Fantastic party. We’re totally overwhelmed. Goodnight. We love you all xoxo,’ she gushed.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B856jr-nJV9/

And of course, you can’t forget Steve Levitan, the show’s producer.

He posted a video of the cast members all waving goodbye, captioning it: ‘Today is our last day shooting #modernfamily.

Steve added: ‘These are just some of the wonderful people who’ve made the last 11 seasons possible. I love them all.’

Modern Family aired its first episode on 23 September 2009 and since then it’s won five Emmys for outstanding comedy series.

Some of the cast members, like Nolan Gould and Rico Rodriquez, have literally grown from children to adults in front of our eyes on screen.

As announced by ABC last year, this 11th series of the show will be its last.

The final episode of Modern Family will air on 8 April 2020.

Modern Family is shown on Wednesdays at 9pm EST on ABC.

The Walking Dead came back with a… well, bang, last night with a shocking sex scene between Alpha (Samantha Morton) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan).

In the new episode, titled Squeeze, the pair’s tension was seen spilling over into sexual tension and they got naked in the woods… save for Alpha’s rotting flesh mask, which she kept on.

It was definitely an unexpected and shocking move from both of them, as the pair’s relationship and where their true loyalties lie still remain unknown.

Speaking about the scene that left viewers squirming by its creepy nature, showrunner Angela Kang has teased that things might not be over for the killer pair.

She told Entertainment Weekly: ‘Alpha and Negan, obviously something has shifted in that relationship. So we’ll see in the season going forward where that takes us.’

On their decision to air the scene, Angela lays the blame squarely on the shoulders of writer David Johnson, who penned the moment.

‘I was like, “This is so weird. I don’t know if I can air this. You know what? We kind of have to do this”,’ she explained. ‘I think it really tracks with who Alpha is. She’s very survival of the fittest and nature’s way is the right way.’

‘There is some hypocrisy in the things that she says sometimes, but I think that for the most part, she is a cult leader who’s a true believer of her own word,’ she added.

‘She probably has had sex with people over the years and it’s just sort of like this transactional thing, but I do think that she’s drawn to Negan and his strength. He was very helpful to her at a time when she feels a little bit under siege,’ Angela continued. ‘So there’s that.’

Going for it as it had been ‘too long’ what does it mean for the vicious pair going forward? (Picture: AMC)

‘And then for Negan, she has him pinned, he’s a crass man,’ she added. ‘He says himself, “It’s been a long time.” Their weirdness is something that we really have enjoyed exploring.’

Well, whatever gets you through the apocalypse we suppose!

However, some viewers are convinced the sexual moment is going to spell trouble for Alpha – and could even spell her death. 

After all, in the comics, Alpha’s eventual death comes at the hands of Negan, who beheads her in order to regain the trust of the Alexandria survivors, and to avenge the lives lost to the Whisperers in the iconically horrific piking scene.

But the show is used to steering away from its source material… so there’s every chance they could end up a power couple to be very afraid of.

The Walking Dead airs Sundays on AMC in the US and Fox in the UK.

Ninja challenged to boxing match by Tfue after Twitter hack

SAN JOSE, CA - OCTOBER 27: Tyler "Ninja" Blevins plays Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 during the Doritos Bowl 2018 at TwitchCon 2018 in the San Jose Convention Center on October 27, 2018 in San Jose, California. (Photo by Robert Reiners/Getty Images)

Ninja has had his Twitter account hacked, creating drama with fellow streamer Tfue – who has challenged him to a fight.

It has not been a good week for Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins. After having something of a meltdown over the ‘it’s just a game’ phrase, his Twitter account was recently hacked into.

Rather than do anything incredibly malicious, all the hacker did was post a tweet that made it seem like Ninja was challenging another streamer, Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney, to a fight.

Tfue has seemed to have taken genuine offence to this, responding to the now-deleted Tweet with ‘Imagine Ninja being man enough to fight me.’


Even after learning that his account was hacked, the act spurred Tfue to make a whole video where he claims that Ninja has always hated and been out to get him, even saying that Ninja has tried to get him banned from Twitch.

‘For years and years, Ninja and me have been rivals, competing against each other since H1Z1, PUBG, and Fortnite… Ever since I started blowing up on social media, blowing up on Twitch, whatever it may be, he’s been trying to tear me down. He’s been talking s*** behind my back.’

He also challenged Ninja to a fight, directly citing last year’s KSI vs Logan Paul fight as why they should do it, as it would bring in the views; something he believes Ninja is desperate for given his move from Twitch to Mixer.


Ninja has responded, stating that he has no interest in fighting Tfue nor does he hate him. However, he believes Tfue is using the incident as a publicity stunt and that he is ‘making it worse for [Ninja] and helping [the hacker].’

It’s very unlikely that an actual fight between the two will happen but, despite Ninja’s attempt to mediate the situation, this drama could last for quite a while and leave an impression on both of their fanbases.

Love Island’s Laura Whitmore showered with praise over finale dedicated to Caroline Flack: ‘Massive respect to her’

Laura Whitmore has been unanimously praised for being a true star during what has been a particularly difficult series of Love Island from start to finish.

The 34-year-old replaced Caroline Flack, 40, after the show’s host was arrested for assault by battery against her boyfriend Lewis Burton, 27. He refused to press charges but the Crown Prosecution Service continued to pursue their investigation.

Caroline was later found dead by suicide at her London home on Saturday, February, 15.

Love Island’s future had never been less certain: ITV2 pulled two episodes from air as well as spin-off series After Sun. However, Laura’s constant professionalism throughout the past week in what must have been torturous for so many reasons is why Love Island is and should return for another series this summer.

Last night’s finale was ‘dedicated’ to Caroline, Love Island’s ‘leading lady’. Laura introduced a touching montage to the late presenter in an outfit which celebrated love from head-to-toe, fighting back tears as viewers were reminded of Caroline’s unbeatable power walk and highlights from her five series as host, before the radio DJ seamlessly managed to continue the live spectacle by turning the night into a celebration of its four finalists and eventual winners Paige Turley and Finley Tapp.

Pulling off last night’s episode can’t have been an easy feat for anyone involved, but as the face of Love Island Laura was exceptional and viewers have piled on the praise:

‘Massive respect to Laura Whitmore and Iain Stirling for managing to finish off this series and deliver such lovely tributes to Caroline. Can’t have been easy,’ wrote one fan, which was echoed by: ‘Well done last night Laura it couldn’t have been easy but you did an amazing job- congratulations.’





Hundreds of posts came in applauding Laura, including a third which read: ‘Thought you handled yourself in a compassionate and professional way last night in what I can only imagine was an incredibly hard and emotional time. Much love xxx.’

Laura confirmed last night Love Island will be returning for its traditional summer run despite calls to retire the dating game in light of three stars – Sophie Gradon and Mike Thalissitis – connected to the programme dying by suicide.

During her tribute last night, Laura reminded viewers Caroline ‘loved Love Island’ before announcing the show would go on.

Winter Love Island is available to stream on ITV Hub.

Jada Pinkett Smith confronts Snoop Dogg over Gayle King comments: ‘My heart dropped’

Jada Pinkett Smith has confronted Snoop Dogg over his comments about Gayle King.

The rapper came under fire for telling Gayle to ‘back off, b***h’ after she brought up the late Kobe Bryant’s sexual assault allegations in an interview.

He accused the presenter of ‘attacking’ Kobe, who died in a helicopter crash last month, by bringing up the 2003 case.

Although Snoop later issued an apology, Jada was quick to challenge her friend.

She admitted ‘her heart dropped’ when she heard about his comments, during Snoop’s appearance on her Red Table Talk show.

‘I felt like not only were you talking to Gayle, but you were talking to me,’ she told the rapper in a preview clip from the episode, while he looked down in disappointment.

‘I was like, “Oh no, Snoop has now taken his power flow away from me, away from Willow, away from my mother”.

‘I was like, “Not Snoop!” That was one of the reasons why I felt like I really wanted to have the conversation with you in the spirit of healing.’

Snoop kicked off after Gayle questioned Kobe’s friend,  WNBA star Lisa Leslie, about the sexual assault claims, on CBS This Morning.

Kobe pleaded not guilty to felony sexual assault in 2003 after a 19-year-old employee of a Colorado ski resort accused him of sexual assault and claimed he blocked her from leaving his room and allegedly choked her.

Charges were eventually dropped and a civil case was settled out of court.

‘It’s been said that his legacy is complicated because of a sexual assault charge, which was dismissed in 2003, 2004. Is it complicated for you as a woman, as a WNBA player?’ Gayle asked Lisa.

‘It’s not complicated for me at all,’ Leslie replied.

She then noted that as the case was dismissed, ‘I think that’s how we should leave it.’

Snoop shared a video of himself ranting about the interview after it aired.

‘What do you gain from that? I swear to God, we the worst. We the f***ing worst,’ he said in the clip. ‘We expect more from you, Gayle.

‘Why y’all attacking us? We your people! You ain’t come after f***ing Harvey Weinstein, asking them dumb-a** questions. I get sick of y’all.’ He ended the rant with: ‘Back off, b****, before we come get you.’

The full Red Table Talk episode with Snoop Dogg will air on Facebook on Wednesday 26 February.

Love Island stars Molly-Mae Hauge and Tommy Fury have been celebrating his brother Tyson’s boxing win against Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas.

The couple jetted into Sin City to throw their support behind Tyson (aka the Gypsy King) who is now the new WBC heavyweight champion after beating Wilder by knockout in the seventh round.

Molly and Tommy had been cheering Tyson on ringside and toasted to his win the morning after the fight at the New York, New York hotel.

Molly was seen giving Tyson a smooch on his cheek as he turned up to celebrate, while Tommy made sure to toast his win, as the champ celebrated with plenty of beers.

Taking to Instagram, Molly told fans she was on ‘cloud nine’ after the big fight and said it had been the ‘best night ever’.

It definitely drew in a celebrity crowd, with Leonardo DiCaprio going incognito to watch Tyson in action and Liam Payne sitting ringside, before then performing with Steve Aoki at an after-party held at Hakksan nightclub.

The couple were laughing and all smiles as Tyson greeted and hugged them both and gave a kiss on Molly's cheek as they sat with the general public and fans just outside on the Brooklyn Bridge patio the Five Irishman bar in the hot sun. Fans swarmed the group and even got to join in with the celebration as they sat for nearly 2.5 hours outside on the Las Vegas Strip.

While Molly and Tommy definitely looked close as they spent time with his family in Vegas, there was no sign of an engagement ring – after Tommy teased he’d be popping the question.

Apparently, Tommy said he’d propose to girlfriend Molly if Tyson won his fight against Wilder.

Tyson was crowned champ, so does that mean we can expect to see Tommy getting down on one knee?

Sources told The Sun: ‘Tommy’s serious about Molly and think proposing in Vegas surrounded by family will be the perfect time. He’s of the mind only to do it in Vegas if his brother Tyson wins his fight against Deontay Wilder.’

Metro.co.uk reached out to Tommy and Molly’s reps.

The couple first began dating while appearing on Love Island last summer and they narrowly missed out on winning the show, finishing in second place to Amber Gill and her – now ex – Greg O’Shea.

They are one of the only couples still together from last year’s series and things seem to be going pretty strong for the pair back on home soil, with a giddy Molly telling fans she’s ‘found a special one’ in Tommy on Valentine’s Day.

It was their first Valentine’s together as a couple and Tommy treated Molly to a lavish night away in the Shard and a huge bouquet of red roses – later telling fans that he’d had a ‘special first valentines with my girl’.

N’aww.

Blackpink’s Rosé put every other airport look to shame as she made her way to Incheon International Airport in South Korea.

The 23-year-old was heading to Paris for the Saint Laurent fashion show and she already looked the part.

She rocked her best business-casual ensemble as she waved and smiled at photographers.

Meanwhile, we’re out here sporting our best sweat pants and messy buns.

The pop star ditched wearing a facemask despite South Korea being on ‘high alert’ amid the Coronavirus outbreak.

To be fair, fashion comes first.

On the other hand, everyone around her made sure to wear face masks.

Rosé’s fashion week travels come after the group wrapped their Japan Dome tour yesterday.

‘Our Japan Dome tour has come to an end,’ Rosé stated on her Instagram. ‘We had so much fun with you all, thank you for the unforgettable memories once again Love you so much blinks mwaaahhh.’

She also shared a series of photos of herself looking like a literal angel in a colourful frilled dress.

As we wait for another Blackpink album, the stars – including Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa – reached another huge milestone.

Their hit BOOMBAYAH has hit 800 million views on YouTube, making them the first K-pop debut music video in history to achieve the feat.

It is one of the girls’ debut songs along with Whistle, and it’s hit a whopping 800 million views three and a half years after its release in August 2016.

BOOMBAYAH is also only the third K-pop group music video to reach the massive milestone, following their song DDU-DU DDU-DU and BTS’ DNA.

Pussycat Dolls performance on Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway sparks more Ofcom complaints… really, guys?

It turns out people really don’t know a good thing when they see it as Ofcom has confirmed that viewers complained about the Pussycat Dolls’ performance on Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway.

*Eye-rolls eternally*.

Newly reformed girl band – made up of Nicole Scherzinger, Kimberly Wyatt, Ashley Roberts, Jessica Sutta and Carmit Bachar – appeared on the ITV show on Saturday to sing a medley of their hits during the End of the Show, Show

The five-piece took to the stage wearing black robes where they began singing Buttons, and Ant and Dec nodded along seemingly enjoying the performance until the robes came off.

The comedy duo jokingly shook their heads and started running down towards the stage to try and put a stop to the performance.

And it turns out that a tiny proportion of audiences weren’t fans of the entertaining spectacle and went out of their way to report it.

A spokesperson from Ofcom confirmed to Metro.co.uk that 67 people went to all the effort to contact the telly watchdog about the group’s iconic performance, because, apparently a raunchy routine to their classic bops warrants complaint

After leaving the majority of us seriously impressed by their stunning performance, the Pussycat Dolls then brought the heat to G-A-Y nightclub to kick off their reunion tour.

Thousands of fans – including RuPaul’s Drag Race star Bianca Del Rio – queued up outside to see the ladies in action, with the band not taking to the stage until the early hours of the morning.

Their performance comes just weeks after they officially dropped their comeback single, React, which is quite simply, pure nostalgia party for the ears.

Ignore the complaints ladies and keep on doing what you’re doing!

Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway continues on Saturday at 7pm on ITV.

People Think ?The Simpsons? Predicted Coronavirus Picture: FOX METROGRAB
Disney+ UK have come under fire by fans of The Simpsons after not confirming whether the show will be on their new streaming service

You’ve got to hand it to fans of The Simpsons, because they’re nothing but loyal.

Disney Plus UK released its new schedule, ahead of the launch of its new streaming service, and after fans noticed that The Simpsons was missing from its lineup, they were quick to call out Netflix’s newest rival on Twitter.

Many threatened to boycott Disney+ and warned that losing The Simpsons would be a definite ‘deal-breaker’.

Putting it bluntly, one fan tweeted: ‘If there’s no Simpsons, I’m out. #DisneyPlusUK.’

Another said: ‘I see that #DisneyPlusUK has already started to piss people off. I must admit, it is frustrating that us Brits always seem to get short-changed when it comes to streaming services. I feel that not getting The Simpsons will be a deal breaker for many.’

A third added: ‘Why do I have the feeling that all the simpsons episodes won’t be on Disney if at all due to the @Channel4@DisneyPlusUK license #DisneyPlusUK.’

Others just couldn’t handle waiting to hear if the show really will be missing for good, with one fan commenting: ‘Has it been confirmed yet if #disneyplusuk will have The Simpsons on it yet?

‘The wait to know is killing me slowly. @TheSimpsons @DisneyPlusHelp @disneyplus.’

Disney… over to you.
