Kim and Kourtney Kardashian put their feud behind them to take their daughters to Paris
Kim and Kourtney Kardashian seem to have put their feud behind them and taken a trip to Paris together, along with their daughters North and Penelope.
Kim is mum to daughter North, six, while Kourtney is mum to Penelope, seven, and the famous sisters were spotted hanging out with their mini-mes as they headed out in the French capital.
They were seen picking up little Eiffel Tower souvenirs from a street seller, before hitting the carousel for a quick ride.
Kim was dressed all in PVC leather and looked incredible in her pale-pink outfit, while Kourtney went for a revealing lacy sheer top and long black coat.
Not to be outdone by their mummas, North showcased her savvy style sense in a bright orange outfit and matching fluffy coat, while Penelope was seen rocking a Gucci coat that we could only dream of adding to our wardrobes.

And their joint trip is no doubt proof for fans that they’ve finally healed the huge rift between them, that was sparked by Kourtney deciding to ‘take a break’ from filming Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
Her decision put a lot of strain on her relationship with sisters Kim and Khloe, who argued they had to pick up the slack and share more of their personal life, because Kourtney wasn’t.

Speaking about her decision to come back, Kris said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show: ‘You know how we all hit a tipping point, and she hit a wall.
‘She was frustrated and she felt under-appreciated and her sisters didn’t appreciate her boundaries, so I think after taking a little bit of time off, she’s seen the light.’

Liara actress Joanna Froggatt isn’t keen for a series 3 (Picture: ITV)
Liar star Joanne Froggatt has confirmed that she doesn’t want the ITV drama to continue after series two because she doesn’t want to lose the trust of viewers.
The actress, who plays teacher Laura Nielson in the show, isn’t keen to make a third chapter as she doesn’t want the stories to become too far-fetched, and we respect that.
‘This will be the end of Andrew and Laura’s story,’ she said. ‘I think it’s really honest with the viewers.’
Continuing to The Sun, Joanne added: ‘There’s nothing worse than investing your time in something and then you get to season three and think, “Oh, it’s all gone too far. I don’t believe it.”‘
Liar is set to return to television screens on Monday (2 March) for series two, with the brand new chapter set to see Joanne’s character Laura in one hell of a troubled situation as she’s sent to prison for the murder of twisted Andrew (Ioan Gruffudd).
Talking about the upcoming episodes, she told Metro.co.uk: ‘It’s a very satisfying story. The audience will be kept guessing.’
When reading the script Joanne admitted that she kept changing her mind as to who the killer was.
She continued: ‘Yes I had a few ideas and I changed my mind about six times while reading it and then I was like “I am really confused now”.’
Season one of the gripping drama focused on the bitter battle between the two of them, where viewers were left guessing if Andrew had raped Laura, or if Laura was making it up for revenge.
It ended with Andrew’s dead body lying on the ground with a cut-throat– so now the next game is to figure out who’s responsible for that in the tangled tale.
Liar returns on Monday at 9pm on ITV.

Madonna cancels Madame X show in Paris after falling off chair on stage three nights ago
Madonna cancelled another show on her Madame X world tour that was scheduled to go ahead in Paris on Sunday night (1 March).
She confirmed her decision to cancel on Instagram, hours ahead of her performance, and told fans that she ‘needs to stay in bed’ for a few days in order to finish the tour ‘with a smile on her face and in one piece’.
Sharing a picture of her on stage, Madonna, 61, wrote: ‘Here I Am Flesh and Blood. If only knees didn’t twist and cartilage didn’t tear and nothing hurt and tears never fell out of our eyes, but alas they do.
‘Thank God for this important reminder that we are human.’
She said: ‘However today even I can see that this broken doll held together with tape and glue, needs to stay in bed and rest for a few days so she can finish the tour with a smile on her face and in one piece. ❌ Thank You for your understanding Paris!’
Metro.co.uk has reached out to Madonna’s rep.
The Like A Virgin singer, who has been battling knee and hip injuries for months, reportedly burst into tears after the fall during Thursday’s show at Le Grand Rex.
The Sun reports she had to be helped up by a backing dance, but continued with the two and a half hour show, despite being in pain.’

A fan had posted on Twitter: ‘A friend who attended @Madonna Thursdays show told me that at the end of Vogue, she missed the chair and fell on the floor.
‘A dancer had to help her on to the chair and then during the Polaroid part she broke in to tears and couldn’t stop. #madonna #madamex #MadameXTour.’
Madonna had cancelled a show in Paris last week because of her ongoing injuries.

She now has just seven shows left out of her 79-date tour, which first kicked off in September in New York and is scheduled to finish in Paris on 11 March.
Back in January, Madonna pulled out of three shows in London, where she was playing at the London Palladium, and revealed she currently spend ‘six hours a day doing rehab’ to try and treat the ‘overwhelming pain’ her injuries are causing her.
Madonna said that touring was putting ‘too much on her body’ and doctors insisted she take a day off after each show.
She told fans: ‘It’s a miracle I have gotten this far but a-lot has to do with the fact that I do 6 hours of re-hab every day [sic].
‘3 hours before show and 3 after with multiple therapies. I have also switched to flat shoes and modified difficult parts of the show.’

Rick And Morty gifted us a freaky teaser (Picture: Twitter)
Rick And Morty has dropped anew trailer getting everyone excited (and impatient) for new episodes.
The 15-second clip, which was shared on the show’s official Twitter account on 28 February, sees Morty thrown into ‘Rick’s game’ where he clambers through a series of intense stages.
It all comes to a dramatic end though when Morty is squashed by a giant fly, who slaps him down with a swatter, prompting the words ‘game over’ to flash up on the screen.
What could all this mean?
While many fans were delighted by the new teaser, the majority demanded to know when new episodes would be coming into their lives.
‘Fam we want the rest of season 4,’ commented one as another posted: ‘Where is the 6th episode? I’ve been waiting for such a long time!’
Haven’t we all?
Season four of Rick And Morty is 10 episodes long, meaning there are still five episodes en route.
The last offering to air, titled Rattlestar Ricklactica, dropped back in December and it’s not currently known when the next chapter will arrive.
Despite this, Spencer Graham, who voices Summer, said the new episodes will come out ‘sooner than later.’
Speaking to Collider at the end of November she said: ‘And then we have another five coming out eventually, sooner than later. And then we also have, I know they’re working on season five. I hope we do get to explore more from [Summer’s] background and the future and just in general.
‘I just recorded 4.10 when I was in LA a few weeks ago but, those change a lot. I’ll be going back to do pick-ups probably for some of them. They’re revising and then re-writing certain things. So, we’re not finished yet but yes, I recorded all of them so far.’
Rick And Morty airs on Adult Swim in the US and airs in the UK on E4 and All 4.

Joanne has assured fans that Andrew Earlham is ‘definitely dead’ (Picture: ITV)
Series two of Liar is finally back on our screens and will surround the death of Andrew Earlham.
The upcoming series sees Laura Nielson (Joanne Froggatt) in one hell of a troubled situation as she’s sent to prison for the murder of twisted Andrew (Ioan Gruffudd) – but is she guilty of the crime?
Speaking ahead of the new series, Joanne revealed that while Andrew does appear in the upcoming drama, she has assured fans (who may think he could come back) that ‘he’s definitely dead’.
‘Andrew is definitely dead. The series goes over the last three weeks between him disappearing and turning up dead,’ she told Metro.co.uk.
‘We see who killed him and who’s the liar now. Laura is under suspicion. She feels angry the injustice has carried on and she is now a suspect. Andrew is still haunting her.’
The Downton Abbey star also teased us with the ending of the series and who really did kill Andrew.
Laura is put right in the frame for murdering Andrew, but did she do it? (Picture: ITV)She continued: ‘It’s a very satisfying story. The audience will be kept guessing.’
When reading the script Joanne admitted that she kept changing her mind as to who the killer was.
She continued: ‘Yes I had a few ideas and I changed my mind about six times while reading it and then I was like “I am really confused now”.’
Season one of the gripping drama focused on the bitter battle between the two of them, where viewers were left guessing if Andrew had raped Laura, or if Laura was making it up for revenge.
It ended with Andrew’s dead body lying on the ground with a cut throat– so now the next game is to figure out who’s responsible for that in the tangled tale.

At the moment, it looks like Laura has taken the fall, which isn’t helped by her eerie monologue that sets off the new trailer, as she’s locked up for the crime.
She said: ‘I wanted Andrew to suffer. It’s all I could think about, and when I found out he was dead I was relieved that he couldn’t hurt anyone else the way he hurt me.
‘The way he hurt so many people, ruined so many lives.’
But then it takes a twist, and anyone who’s seen season one knows that there’s more than one person who would’ve wanted Andrew dead.
‘Somehow he’s still doing it, messing with my life, he’s dead and he’s still playing games with me,’ she said.
‘I don’t know who killed Andrew Earlham, but I’m not taking the fall for it. He’s not going to ruin my life all over again.’
DI Karen Renton suspects everyone, but who killed Andrew? (Picture: ITV)
New cast member Katherine Kelly will play DI Karen Renton, who joins DS Rory Maxwell (Danny Webb) as his new partner in investigating Andrew’s past to identify his killer.
Show writers Jack and Harry Williams revealed last year how Andrew is going to return – and no, it’s nothing like setting himself up.
‘I can categorically say that he’s dead, but there’s a time jump at the end of the series,’ explained Jack.
‘There’s three weeks we’re going to find out, we’re going to see the story of what actually happens in the weeks leading up to it.’
Liar returns Monday 2 March at 9pm on ITV.

Returning to work on Countdown last week, the star brought Maven along but was totally upstaged by her.
The maths whizz was leading lady of the mental arithmetic favourite was seen beaming alongside her baby girl and Pasha as they stood in front of the iconic word board.
Welcoming her to club Countdown, the board read ‘Maven Aria, 15 Dec ‘19’ which clearly went down a treat with her little bundle of joy, who was seen giggling in her daddy’s arm as they posed.
Alongside the absolutely adorable snap, Rachel wrote: ‘First block back at work done and dusted and I can still sum post baby… phew!
‘Mave was busy melting hearts and Pash is a hero. The eternal on screen pregnancy has just a month to go! Now back to family time for us, we’re really loving it.’

Change of plans
So, things are getting pretty bad with the coronavirus and considering what’s happened with GDC I’m thinking there’s now a good chance that E3 will be cancelled. It was already a risk prospect given Sony aren’t going anyway but with so many other companies backing out of public events I don’t know how much that’s likely to change in three months. They can’t cancel it suddenly, with just a few week’s notice, so really they’ve got to make a decision this month.
And what about Sony’s plans for ‘hundreds’ of consumer events of the PlayStation 5? They never did explain how that was going to work and now suddenly consumer events sound like the last thing people are going to want to go to. And Sony won’t want footage of their events where nobody turns up.
Clearly there are more important things to worry about when it comes to the coronavirus but it looks like it is really going to do a number on video games companies’ plans for this year. Maybe it’s a good idea then that those plans involved doing absolutely nothing for the first three months! Zebra
True power
Audio ray-tracing is such a made-up phrase I can’t help but just laugh at it. I mean really. Is everything going to be compared to ray-tracing now? Open world ray-tracing? Multiplayer ray-tracing? Artificial intelligence ray-tracing? It’s already become a meaningless buzzword, especially as there’s a million ways to implement the real thing and it’s impossible to tell just by looking at it how much it is ‘real’ real ray-tracing.
It’s always like this with a new generation, I know, but at least they’re pushing frame rating as being important, at last, so we get at least some benefit out of it all. But I just want to see the games. That reader is right, tech specs are meaningless other than a general indication. The best way to tell how powerful a console is, is to play its games.
After all, what does it matter if it’s super powerful if that power is never used? Power is only real if it’s used. Which makes me sound like some tinpot supervillain but when it comes to video games its true. Dangermaus
Story pass
That was a pretty weak Pokémon Day but I imagine they’re holding everything back for next year’s 25th anniversary, so that’s fine by me. The plan is to release a new Pokémon game of some sort every year, although I think this year they’re counting that as the expansion pass and the Mystery Dungeon remake – like two half games count as one.
So the obvious question is why they’re going to do next year? Obviously not another generation but I assume the two main choices are a second expansion or a new remake. It’s the turn of Diamond and Peral next, which was a particularly good one, and I seem to remember last year there were rumours that it was underway.
I’d be fine with it, and would probably get it if it had open world areas, but I do wish they’d do a Pokémon game with a decent story. Diamond and Peral’s was rubbish just like all the others, so if they’ve got the tech and gameplay squared already with Sword/Shield why not do a second expansion pass that’s much more story-focused, like a full role-playing game? I’d love to see that, although I can’t imagine it really happening. Baker
Not a sci-fi fan
I agree with the Reader’s Feature at the weekend, I hope Rockstar are doing a sci-fi game or something outside their usual two franchises. That artwork teaser doesn’t seem to hint at anything GTA to me (or Red Dead, obviously) so I hope it’s something new and unexpected. I also wonder whether that might be why Dan Houser left when he did. He’s always seemed to take himself pretty seriously so I could easily imagine him being one of the ones that held back from doing anything too fantastical.
He leaves on 11 March (next Wednesday) so perhaps we’ll see an announcement shortly after that? Bit of a stretch really but I can’t see them just releasing a bunch of random bit of artworks for month’s on end without some clue as to what they’re about. People would soon get sick of that.
Who knows but a major Rockstar announcement in March would certainly help to make up for the last three months of nothing at all. Bearbare
One obvious, two not
I’m not really into multiplayer games but there have been three I’ve spent more time in than most others. One obvious one that everyone played is Call Of Duty 4, but there are two underrated ones I wanted to highlight. The first was Killzone 2 on PlayStation 3. The maps and classes were great and the graphics were brilliant at the time. Just a good visceral shooter, even if it didn’t do anything particularly innovative.
The second was Red Faction: Guerrilla which I loved due to how the destruction physics came into play. It was great fun to take down opponents through toppling a roof onto their head rather than just shooting them. Angry_Kurt (Twitter)
Now playing: Judgment (PS4), Lara Croft Go (PC) and Super Mario World (Switch)
Auto runner
I was just wondering the most stupid someone’s felt when getting stuck in a game, then realising you had just overlooked something simple. I only ask as I was playing A Plague Tale: Innocence yesterday, I’m very early on. You have to run past a group of one-shot kill demonic rats to get to a boat by igniting some windmill sails. The rats hate the light.
Anyway, I died about 12 times and was getting very frustrated. I got into my head you had to be super accurate with timing your run with the position of the sails and tried many configurations. Before the door, after the door and then the apex of the first sail. No? Then maybe the second sail, nope. Anyway, I then remembered you could run with the right trigger button, worked an absolute treat.
The game has a habit of automatically taking control of your character’s speed, mainly to slow down to tell Hugo to start taking this whole, family being murdered, apocalyptic plague thing seriously, so I just had in mind the game made your character auto run before I remembered you could do it yourself. So far, I’ve done a lot of fleeing/running. Not my greatest hour for sure. Great game so far, thank you very much Game Pass. Simundo
Rebellious suggestion
In response to the Reader’s Feature, I’m secretly hoping Rockstar have got the rights to the 200 0AD universe.
An open world game set in the 2000 AD universe, developed by Rockstar, would possibly be the greatest thing since Turner the Worm being sick.
And stay away from my bins! Mr T
GC: Sniper Elite makers Rebellion own the 2000 AD comics, so there’s almost zero chance of that happening.
Same old story
I’d just like to clarify to everyone writing in, saying I was disrespecting them because of their interest in the innards of a console. That was not my intention. Maybe I wasn’t clear enough at what exactly bores me about all the spec talk. The thing is, I get as excited as anyone about with a new generation of consoles. It brings out the kid in me and I can’t wait to get my hands on the new PlayStation.
My issue is that whatever ends up inside the Xbox and PlayStation they’ll be pretty much the same, bar a few small differences. The games will look and run the same to 99% of the population. I’m a busted 36-year-old. I’ve been hearing these arguments every generation since the Super Nintendo. They just don’t matter.
The only thing that does is the games. Which is why I fully expect PlayStation to kick Xbox’s buns. They just make better games. As always, I’m loving the conversation on the Inbox and respect people’s opinions, who clearly know and care much more about what makes a console work. Chris
Inbox also-rans
That Baldur’s Gate 3 does actually look really good. Yet another example of a relatively small developer making games that look and play better than companies with hundreds more people working on them. Look at you Ubisoft and EA. Korbie
Not really video game related but has GameCentral seen the new trailer for the Netflix Transformers animation? Andrew J.
GC: We’re not impressed. The animation, script, and voiceovers all seem very low quality.
This week’s Hot Topic
The question for this weekend’s Inbox was suggested by reader Grackle, who asks what’s the most infamous let-down you’ve had with video games?
The obvious choice is a game or console you were really looking forward to but it can also include preview events, or shows like E3, that ended up being a disappointment. Do you think the let-down was the company’s fault or would you admit to having unreasonable expectations?
Did the disappointment cause you to readjust how you look forward to new games and announcements? Are you often disappointed by games or events or have you since learnt to keep expectations in check?
The small print New Inbox updates appear every weekday morning, with special Hot Topic Inboxes at the weekend. Readers’ letters are used on merit and may be edited for length.
You can also submit your own 500 to 600-word 4Player viewer features at any time, which if used will be shown in the next available weekend slot.

Space Channel 5 VR – not a very succesful comeback (pic: Grounding Inc.)
Sega’s cult classic dancing game returns on PSVR, but after almost two decades in the wilderness does Ulala still have the right moves?
Now that Sonic The Hedgehog has been a big success at the cinema (no, we can’t believe it either) you can guarantee that as we speak Hollywood executives are combing through Sega’s back catalogue looking for other games to adapt and create a doomed-to-failure Sega cinematic universe. One that may well catch their attention is Space Channel 5; the Dreamcast’s neo-hued dance game, whose main character Ulala remain a fan favourite despite this being her first new game in 18 years.
Space Channel 5 was amongst the earliest releases for Sega’s doomed Dreamcast console in 1999. Designed by Rez creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi and his team, it was intended to help attract a less hardcore gaming demographic, and specifically to appeal to women. Somewhat patronisingly, it did that by putting you in the boots of Ulala, a candy-coloured sassy female TV presenter from the near future.
Her job was reporting on an alien invasion using the medium of dance. First you watched a group of dancing space invaders, then copied their moves by hitting the correct buttons in time to the music, very much in the call and response style of PaRappa The Rapper, which had been released for PlayStation two years earlier. It proved to be a winning formula and developer Grounding Inc. (responsible for disappointing Panzer Dragoon homage Crimson Dragon) has clearly decided not to mess with it.
In Space Channel 5 VR Kinda Funky News Flash! you’re a trainee reporter receiving your journalistic education from Ulala herself. That has two effects: one is that you get to watch Ulala performing the moves you’re supposed to copy, just in case seeing the aliens doing them isn’t enough. The other is that it gives the game a bit of personality. The aliens are still flat textured and don’t tend to talk much, so Ulala acts as your guide and interpreter for the typically surreal invasion plot.
The dance moves themselves are relatively straightforward. Instead of hitting a button to match the aliens’ gestures, you now use Move controllers. There’s no DualShock option, so if you don’t have Move controllers you can’t play. But for those who do, dancing with them is perfectly natural, even if the PlayStation VR’s occasionally finicky motion tracking means the game will sometimes register a mistake when you’ve performed a move perfectly well. Make three consecutive errors – whether real or imagined – and you’re sent back to the start of the level.
As well as flinging your hands in the same direction as the aliens, and adopting their poses, you’ll also need to dodge left, right, and downwards. That means Space Channel 5 is a game you can only play standing up, but it’s a price worth paying. Seeing the aliens’ laser beams and punches projecting towards you as you expertly sidestep them just in time, works beautifully and most certainly adds to the sense of immersion.
Space Channel 5 VR – not good value for money (pic: Grounding Inc.)
With all its arm waving and colourful visuals Space Channel 5 VR is actually more reminiscent of fellow Sega classic, Samba De Amigo, even if it turns out not to be nearly so much fun. Not that the dancing is bad per se, more that it’s quite limited in terms of the moves you need to do.
The bigger problem though, is that you can quite easily see all of its meagre four levels in under half an hour. It might take a bit longer if you keep making mistakes, but even for the most gaff-prone trainee reporter, this is highly unlikely to distract you for more than an hour.
That wouldn’t be so bad if it cost a fiver, but this is close to full price. Yes, each level has ‘secrets’ but those turn out simply to be circles that appear briefly in the air in front of you and need to be hit before they vanish. They add nothing to the gameplay and certainly don’t create any replayability. It’s a real shame, because the basics are all here, they just don’t lead anywhere.
The game’s beats are never less than funky, Mizuguchi’s campy, neon-hewn extraterrestrials remain charming enough, and the transition to VR works really nicely, especially when you’re dodging alien bosses’ attacks. However, with so little content it’s impossible not to feel let down. In its heyday Space Channel 5 had plenty to do, and a far greater level of challenge. This plays more like a tutorial than a full game.
Space Channel 5 VR Kinda Funky News Flash! review summary
In Short: Space Channel 5’s dancing aliens and high camp work well in VR, but with only around half an hour of gameplay this represents astoundingly poor value for money.
Pros: Funky tunes, colourful visuals, and good use of the PlayStation Move controllers.
Cons: Motion sensing proves distinctly patchy, and the game is so short you’ve barely got started before you’ll be playing its interactive credits sequence.

Nicola Thorp is an actor and equal rights campaigner (Picture: Carla Speight/Getty Images)
Nicola Thorp is a regular on morning TV – popping up on Good Morning Britain and This Morning to discuss a wide range of issues – and you may recognise her face from some of her acting work.
Since 2013, she has starred in some big-name dramas for the likes of the BBC and ITV.
So, what has Nicola Thorp been in and what else does she do?
Who did Nicola Thorp play in Coronation Street?
For over two years, Nicola played Nicola Rubinstein on Coronation Street.
Arriving on the famous cobbles back in June 2017, Nicola was the daughter of Pat Phelan (Connor McIntyre), brought on the show as Seb Franklin’s (Harry Visinoni) case worker.
She had a dramatic time on the show, with the character being shot by her father and just about surviving before she left to start her new life in Bristol.
Nicola confirmed her exit from Corrie shortly after the scenes aired, posting a video message on the official Corrie account.
In it, she said: ‘Hey everyone, I just wanted to say I’ve had the most incredible year here working at Corrie.
‘To be involved in Phelan’s demise has been an absolute treat, and I hope you’ve all been enjoying it as much as I have enjoyed filming it. I’ve got wonderful friends, a family that I’ve made here, and I’ll be really, really sad to say goodbye for now.’
What else has Nicola Thorp done?
Apart from her role in Corrie, she starred in a 2013 episode of Doctor Who, three-part ITV serial The Guilty and an episode of Doctors.

Thorp caught the attention of the nation back in 2016 after going public with an experience she had as a temp worker for PriceWaterhouseCoopers, where she was told she was fired for refusing to wear high heels.
An online petition subsequently attracted 110,000 signatures in less than 48 hours and Thorp went to Parliament to discuss the issue.

As a result, the temp agency she worked with relaxed the dress code rules for women and the conversation was picked up across the country.
It was particularly devastating news for Olly who had developed a close friendship with the former Love Island host when they presented the X Factor and Xtra Factor together between 2011 and 2013.
Opening up about the moment he was informed of the death of his pal, Olly told The Sun: ‘Even answering this question doesn’t seem right, to be honest. I’m still in shock, really.
‘To think I won’t have a conversation, a laugh, work, or even just get a random voice note from Cazza again — I just can’t get my head around it.’
The Dance With Me Tonight singer remembers the precise moment his phone rang – at 2:23 am – and admits he’ll ‘never forget’ his manager breaking the upsetting news.

‘I didn’t know what to do,’ Olly revealed.
‘My manager told me and I just stared at my phone for hours… I just didn’t want to believe it.
‘I was numb to any feelings and then I just broke down.’
Sharing how he’s coping with the grief, Olly described it as a rollercoaster and said: ‘Since then I just have constant waves of emotions — one minute I’m OK, the next I’m so sad for her.
In an Instagram post, the pop star wrote: ‘Caz… 💔😣 f*ck this hurts! My heart is forever broken.. I’ve lost something today that I’ll never ever get back.. and that’s you.
‘From the first moment we met in Birmingham 2011 and had literally 10mins to say hello, get mic’d up and head out to work together on Xtra.
‘We never stopped laughing, flirting (who can forget that), eating cheeseburger chasers, singing (which I always loved hearing), the arguments (which I never won), the disagreements on what jokes to say or what outfits you should wear, these are the moments I’ve always cherished but right now as I write this it’s hit me I won’t have them moments again.’
The Troublemaker singer continued: ‘I haven’t stopped crying since the news, after we stopped working together in 2015 we didn’t see each other as much as we should have but we always spoke on the phone or messaged plus whenever I did see ya out and about, like a sister we’d just kiss and make up and was back being us every single time.’
Hamish and Amelia are putting Caprice drama behind them to look forward to their wedding! (Picture: Hello/ITV)
Dancing On Ice’s Hamish Gaman has praised fiancé Amelia Humfress as his ‘absolute rock’ after falling into a ‘dark place’ after the Caprice Bourret drama.
Hamish admitted that he was ‘not OK’ with what happened between him and Caprice last month, with their frosty relationship eventually resulting in both removing themselves from the competition for the sake of their mental health.
But from the difficult time came unrelenting support from his girlfriend Amelia – and Hamish now admits that it gave him the kick he needed to get down on one knee and propose to him.
Speaking to Hello! Magazine alongside his fiancé, he said: ‘I’ve known for a long time that I want to spend the rest of my life with Amelia but what I’ve been through made me keen to make that commitment to her sooner than we’d anticipated.’
‘For the past few months I’ve been in a dark place which I couldn’t have got through without her,’ he said. ‘Recent events have made me realise just how much I love her.
‘Planning our wedding together has brought light to the darkness.’

Hamish was replaced by Oscar Peter for one week of the series, before Caprice quit completely.
Taking time out himself after admitting the drama had taken its toll, Hamish is now focusing on the positive and has started planning his wedding.
Hamish praised Amelia as his rock (Picture: Instagram)
They’ve now set the date for December for their happy day, after four years of dating after meeting each other on Tinder.
‘Without Amelia I don’t know what I would have done,’ he said. ‘When you’re in the public eye, you expect to read and hear gossip about yourself, but I never thought it would affect my mental health as much as it did.
‘I found it hard to sleep and eat, and would wake up with anxiety.’
‘Amelia has been my absolute rock,’ he added.
The full interview is in Hello! magazine, out now.
Dancing On Ice finale airs Sunday from 6pm on ITV.

Victoria Beckham was on-hand to support David (Picture: Getty Images
Victoria Beckham and son Brooklyn were David Beckham’s biggest cheerleaders as his new football team, Inter Miami, played for the first time this weekend.
Retired England star David has spent the last few years building his footie dream team and they finally made their anticipated debut at Los Angeles’ Banc of California Stadium on Sunday (1 March), where they played against Major League Soccer’s Los Angeles FC.
As David, 44, intently watched his star players on the field for the first time, doting wife Victoria stood beside him in the VIP box for moral support.
Although it was David’s big day, Victoria had a legion of her own fans in the building as one supporter was seen holding up a banner which frankly stated: ‘I’m just here for Posh Spice.’
At least they were honest!
It looks like Inter Miami’s future games will bring a variety of fans then, with some likely hoping to catch the Spice Girls star in the stands.

Next to Victoria was her eldest son Brooklyn, who was joined by his actress girlfriend Nicola Peltz, indicating that she’s getting on just fine with the Beckham clan just a few months after she struck up a romance with the aspiring photographer.
At one point, the couple were particularly cosy with each other and it looked as though Brooklyn, 20, might have been giving the Bates Motel actress a few pointers on the rules of the game.
Brooklyn said he was ‘proud’ of his dad (Picture: David Beckham)
In an Instagram photo, Brooklyn shared a photo of David looking out at the stadium and wrote: ‘So proud of you dad,’ with red heart emojis.
Victoria also said: ‘So so so proud of you, and look at that smile!!!’
David’s bestie and TV chef Gordon Ramsay was also on-hand for the former footballer’s momentous day, and was seen leaning into David, likely sharing his thoughts on Inter Miami’s performance.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t a great start for the team who lost 1-0 to Los Angeles FC.
The couple’s youngest children, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, didn’t attend the match but all sent sweet good luck cards to their dad.
Still, David celebrated his team’s efforts and wrote in a heartfelt Instagram post: ‘Very proud moment for our club today and the team did us proud…
‘It’s been a long journey but this is only the beginning … To Diego ( The Boss ) the team and our entire staff at @intermiamicf we should be very proud how far we have come and what the future holds… Exciting times ahead.’
Elsewhere in the VIP box, Victoria found time to catch up with her celebrity pals and posed for photos with Eva Longoria, Liv Tyler and her close friend and celebrity stylist Ken Paves.

The Walking Dead’s Beta strikes down Alexandria in savage scenes (Picture: AMC)
**Warning: This episode contains spoilers for The Walking Dead, read at your own risk.**
The Walking Dead might not have had any Negan and Alpha bombshell moments this week (thank god), however, they sure went there with Beta.
Looking like a scene from Michael Jackson’s Thriller, the villain of the show suddenly emerged from Dante’s grave after working his way through the Whisperer’s underground network.
He’d come to reclaim Gamma, who had been locked up by the Alexandrians after revealing the news that both Daryl and Carol were trapped in Alpha’s cave.
But while the team were out hunting the horde, Beta broke into their community and ended up killing a number of people in the dead of night.
The fighters are yet to find out what’s gone down back at home – but we’ve sure been left with a lot of questions following the episode, titled Stalker.
Will Beta come back for Gamma?
Will he return for Gamma (Picture: AMC)
Beta managed to break into Alexandria in an attempt to reclaim Gamma after she left the Whisperer tribe in order to find her nephew.
And when doing so he came across both Rosita and Judith, who ended up fighting for their lives when the beast tried to savagely take them both down.
After turning a number of people into zombies, he then completed his mission in finding Gamma – who sacrificed herself in order to save the rest of Alexandria.
On their way back to Alpha, the duo came across Gabriel, who managed to free their prisoner from his grasp and scare Beta away.
However, it seems the group are not safe as long as they have Gamma, and we’re more than convinced Beta will be back for revenge.
How long has there been a tunnel into Alexandria?
Will more lives be lost? (Picture: AMC)
Beta found his way into Alexandria through Dante’s grave – and now we’re wondering if there are even more Whisperers inside the walls.
Dante was one of Alpha’s spies but ended up being murdered by Gabriel after he killed Rosita’s baby daddy, Siddiq.
And now we know that there’s a way into the community, we’ve been left with all the questions: Are there more spies? How much have they seen? Are they planning on stealing weapons? How much time does Alexandria have left?
It seems the team’s defense is lacking after a handful of them went to Oceanside., including Michonne (who is set to leave the show at any minute).
And so we wouldn’t be surprised if more of our people ended up dead at the hands of Alpha – we guess only time will tell.
When did Rosita and Gabriel become an item?
When did Rosita and Gabriel become a thing? (Picture: AMC)
Siddiq’s body hasn’t even gone cold yet and his girl Rosita has already moved on with Gabriel.
Yes, this new romance just appeared out of nowhere and we can’t help but feel slightly weird about it all.
As Gabriel set out to hunt down Alpha’s horde, he told Rosita to stay behind to look after her baby Coco.
Then, all of a sudden, he leaned in for a kiss and planted one on her lips before going all Rick Grimes and handing her his hat so she’ll remember him if he didn’t return.
Now we know that Siddiq is dead, but we hope he’ll be remembered – after all the trailer teased a kiss between Rosita and Eugine – so is Gabriel just a rebound?
Will Alpha survive her near-fatal wounds?
How will Alpha die? (Picture: AMC)
Alpha had an epic showdown with Daryl seeing the duo both suffer near-fatal wounds.
But while Darly was saved by Alpha’s daughter Lydia, the Whisperer leader was forced to fend for herself after almost bleeding out in an abandoned hut.
When returning to her group, it appeared she was preparing to die, as her people gathered around the villain in support.
However, at the last minute, she sat up from her death bed and reminded viewers that she’s not done just yet, by screaming how it was the end of the world.
In the comics, Alpha is beheaded by Negan who takes her head back to Alexandria in an attempt to earn their trust.
But, after that sex scene, last we have no idea where their relationship is heading, and whether or not showrunner Angela Kang will stick to the original plot.
The Walking Dead airs Sundays on AMC in the US and Fox the following day in the UK.

Finn Wolfhard has recalled some dicey fan situations (Picture: Splash News)
Finn Wolfhard has recalled being ‘stalked’ by adult fans when he was at the height of Stranger Things fame at the age of 13 – and this is really not ok.
Stalking in any form = not ok.
Stalking when you’re an intimidating adult and you’re following a 13-year-old kid = really not ok.
The now-17-year-old actor recalled filming It (in which he played Richie Tozier) and was heading back to his condo when he realised he was being followed.
Never a nice feeling.
Speaking to Mastermind magazine, he said: ‘When I was 13, some adults followed me back to my condo when I was shooting It.

‘Stranger Things had just come out, and I was by myself. As I walked faster, they walked faster, and I was getting a bit antsy by the time I got to the door.’
Finn continued: ‘Suddenly, they were like, “Hey, dude, can we get a selfie?” And I was like, “No you can’t have a selfie! How about don’t follow children?”’
That wasn’t the only time he had someone hot on his tail, as he recalled another incident: ‘I also had my taxi followed and, out of the taxi, the person continued to be pretty relentless.’
While also playing in his band Calpurnia, Finn said he’s had to ‘stop shows because people were getting crushed’ by overeager fans who clearly don’t understand the premise of personal space.

The star was turning 16 last month when she shared the message to Instagram, along with a clip of Justin Bieber’s Changes soundtracking a montage of clips of Millie growing up.
Millie wrote: ‘16 has felt like a long time coming. i feel like change needs to happen for not only this generation but the next. our world needs kindness and support in order for us children to grow and succeed.’
She then went on to call out the social media abuse and inappropriate comments that she’s received growing up in the spotlight.
‘The last few years haven’t been easy, I’ll admit that,’ Millie told her followers. ‘There are moments i get frustrated from the inaccuracy, inappropriate comments, sexualisation, and unnecessary insults that ultimately have resulted in pain and insecurity for me. but not ever will i be defeated. ill continue doing what i love and spreading the message in order to make change.’
But looking to the future positively, she added: ‘Let’s focus on what needs changing and I hope this video informs you on the things that go on behind the scenes of the headlines and flashing lights.
‘Dont worry I’ll always find a way to smile ;) leggo 16 [sic].’

Flavor Flav has left Public Enemy (Picture: Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic)
Flavor Flav has been booted out of Public Enemy in a row over Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders.
The rap group confirmed they are ‘moving forward’ without their legendary hype man Flav, releasing a statement reading: ‘Public Enemy and Public Enemy Radio will be moving forward without Flavor Flav.
‘We thank him for his years of service and wish him well.’
Flav, 60, was one of the founding members of Public Enemy, forming the group with Chuck D in 1985 after meeting at Adelphi University.
The split comes after the band members clashed over Flav filing a cease and desist letter to the Bernie Sanders campaign, after Public Enemy Radio endorsed Sanders and announced they would be performing at one of his rallies.
In a letter from Flav, real name William Drayton Jr, written by his lawyer, he said: ‘While Chuck is certainly free to express his political views as he sees fit — his voice alone does not speak for Public Enemy.

‘The planned performance will only be Chuck D of Public Enemy, it will not be a performance by Public Enemy. Those who truly know what Public Enemy stands for know what time it is, there is no Public Enemy without Flavor Flav.’
Public Enemy Radio, an offshoot of Public Enemy led by Chuck D with DJ Lord, Jahi and the S1Ws, went on to perform at Sanders’ rally.
Chuck D, 59, took to Twitter to claim that the split wasn’t only about his endorsement of Sanders, but of Flav’s refusal to support a non-profit organisation founded by Harry Belafonte.
The rapper, real name Carlton Ridenhour, tweeted: ‘ last final note the last final note was my last straw was long ago. It’s not about BERNIE with Flav… he don’t know the difference between BarrySanders or BernieSanders he don’t know either. FLAV refused to support @Sankofa after @harrybelafonte inducted us. He don’t do that.

‘So I don’t attack FLAV on what he don’t know. I gotta leave him at the crib so y’all trying to fill his persona with some political aplomb is absolutely‘stupid’ Obviously I understand his craziness after all this damn time. Duh you don’t know him from a box of cigars or me either.
‘Spoke @BernieSanders rally with @EnemyRadio. If there was a $bag, Flav would’ve been there front & center. He will NOT do free benefit shows. Sued me in court the 1st time I let him back in. His ambulance lawyer sued me again on Friday & so now he stays home & better find REHAB.
Public Enemy Radio went on to perform at the rally (Picture: Michael Tullberg/Getty Images)
‘I heard I’m trending, like I care. I built @EnemyRadioRS so it does benefits & fundraisers … He said he never gonna do them. So his refusal to do @HarryBelafonte #ManyRiversFestival in Atlanta 2016 was my last time. I built Enemy Radio to get far away from that ridiculousness.
’93yr old @harrybelafontecould bust his ass come 3000 mls to present PublicEnemy its induction 2013 ( many still are clueless on) &anyone feel that they cannot give a ounce of time to reciprocate that honor to his @Sankofa fundraiser-to judge a Bikini $how. #Ungrateful.’
And in response to a follower saying that ‘it’s not Public Enemy w/out Flavor Flav’, Chuck responded: ‘I would not have a PublicEnemy without a Flavor Odette. However I will park it in the driveway take off the plates wait to reRegister it when it’s running right and drive the smart car called EnemyRadio. Then we expect your PUblicEnemy support when that vehicle is ‘right’ ready.’
Now Flav has left the group, Chuck D, Professor Griff and DJ Lord remain members of Public Enemy.
The hip-hop group are considered one of the most influential of all time and have released 14 albums, getting inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2013.
At the Sanders rally, Public Enemy Radio confirmed a new album, Loud Is Not Enough, is on its way in April.

Judge Judy is ending after 25 years on screen (Picture: CBS)
Judge Judy has announced that the much-loved TV series is ending after 25 years – but don’t expect her to be leaving our screens anytime soon.
Judy Sheindlin, 77, announces the plans to end the series to Ellen Degeneres during an interview set to air today (Monday 2).
She tells the host: ‘I’ve had a 25-year-long marriage with CBS, and it’s been successful; next year will be our 25th season, silver anniversary.
‘And CBS sort of felt, I think, they wanted to optimally utilize the repeats of my program, because now they have 25 years of reruns; so what they decided to do was to sell a couple of years’ worth of reruns.’
However, the multiple Emmy award winning star will instead be focusing on a new series, Judy Justice, which is due for release on 2022.
It’s not yet known where Judy Justice will air or how it will differ from Judge Judy, with the star playing coy to Ellen about any future plans of the series beyond the announcement.

The star is now planning to launch a brand new series (Picture: Getty)
Judge Judy will remain on screen until the end of its 25th year in 2021, with reruns still being kept on air to run forevermore as well.
Seeing as the series still rakes in up to 9million viewers a day, we don’t see it going anywhere anytime soon.
Known for her no-nonsense approach in the on-screen small claims courts, resident New Yorker Judy became the highest paid personality on US TV, raking in a rumoured $47million (£36.6million).
Judge Judy airs on CBS Reality in the UK.

Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid shared a throwback clip to the first moment they ever met – to prove Piers right, of course.
The pair reunited on Good Morning Britain after a break away from the screen, and after years of Piers insisting that they had met before working together on GMB, Susanna had to reveal the clip was finally unearthed.
On BBC Breakfast circa 2005, a dapper young Piers Morgan appeared on the show to talk his newspaper first news, with Susanna interviewing him.
Back on GMB, the pair were left getting the giggles as they watched the old them talk about young people not understanding what the monarchy is, and Piers being surprised about them not supporting the war on Iraq.
‘Susanna’s body language is quite interesting,’ Piers then noted. ‘Really quite flirtatious. Lots of leaning in towards me.’
‘And you’re mansplaying in return!’ Richard Arnold jumped in to defend him.

The pair were left shocked at their old school selves (Picture: ITV)
‘I think we both sound so much posher there!,’ Susanna added, before claiming he looked a bit like Colin Firth ‘with a raffish open-necked shirt’.
Susanna then had to admit she was wrong, but it’s obvious that Piers hadn’t left quite the impression that he’d hoped he had on the TV presenter… seeing as she had literally no recollection of the moment at all.
Piers was helping launch First News at the time of the interview (Picture: ITV)
Unfortunately/Fortunately for her, she now can’t forget him even if she tried, with the pair debating everything this morning including… well, wars and what the monarchy’s up to.
Guess some things don’t change that much!
When the date of the interview was revealed to be 2005 by Piers, Susanna later joked: ‘I think we’ve done pretty well in the intervening years!’
Good Morning Britain airs daily at 6am on ITV.

NCIS: Los Angeles viewers did a double-take when Cardi B’s husband Offset made his TV debut in last night’s episode, but they were even more surprised by his acting chops.
The Migos rapper made a cameo in Sunday night’s episode (1 March), starring alongside rapper LL Cool J (Sam Hanna) and Chris O’Donnell (Callen) as undercover CIA agent Kadri Kashan Khan, who is called in to rescue special agent Fatima in the Middle East.
News of Offset’s guest spot was confirmed last week and it’s safe to say that fans, who didn’t know what to expect from the rapper, were thoroughly impressed with his performance.
‘@NCISLA, I’m sure your ratings are up tonight. @OffsetYRN is doing a great job. Give him a recurring role, not as a charity offer for him but for a win for you,’ one fan pleaded.
Agreeing with the viewer, one other applauded: ‘#NCISLA need to bring @OffsetYRN back for more recurring roles with his character. he did a good job!’
Predicting big things for Offset’s acting career, another weighed in: ‘@OffsetYRN congrats on the #NCISLA joint -your acting is good . I can see this won’t be the last . Movies is coming.’
Who knew Offset had good acting chops? (Picture: CBS via Getty Images)
‘@OffsetYRN is changing stereotypes and making moves – anything is possible! congratulations, you did a good job on the show today and you are a good actor – was it one time thing or more to come ? @NCISLA @llcoolj,’ another stated.
Taking into account the open ending for Offset’s character, another said: ‘So since @OffsetYRN didn’t die, will he be back??’
Praising Offset’s dedication to his art, a viewer tweeted: ‘Im really impressed w how serious offset is taking his acting debut! he said hes even doing his own stunts [sic].’
Offset, real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus, watched the Alsiyadun episode at home with wife Cardi B and delivered a running commentary along to some of the scenes.

Although, at one point Cardi struggled to follow along and remarked: ‘Are you talking another language?’
But she seemed impressed by the action and later exclaimed: ‘Oh my God!’
LL Cool J praised Offset’s performance before the episode aired and tweeted: ‘Proud of my Lil brother making his dreams happen!!! @OffsetYRN‘s acting debut on tomorrow’s episode of #NCISLA!! When you’re in Hip-Hop, some people only expect you to play a gangster or a thug but my man is breaking type!!! This is just the beginning!! I got you bro!’
In a behind the scenes clip, LL Cool J revealed how the rapper’s cameo came about and explained: ‘Offset and I, we’ve been talking on and off.
‘He kinda came to me and was like, “Yo, I’d like to be involved with it”. One thing led to another and they [producers] did their process, went through their thing, and here we are.’
Offset isn’t the only actor in the family as Cardi B made a brief cameo in Hustlers alongside Jennifer Lopez, and is set to appear in Fast & Furious 9 with Vin Diesel and John Cena.
A release date for NCIS: Los Angeles season 11 in the UK is yet to be announced.

Piers Morgan and Andi Peters shared a seriously awkward moment on Good Morning Britain as Piers shut down Andi for ‘fat-shaming’ him on live TV.
Competition compere Andi was talking about British pie week, when he started chanting ‘Who ate all the pies?’, with the cameras cutting to a clearly bemused looking Piers who had a face like thunder.
When he realised he might have hit a nerve, Piers lashed out, and slammed his co-star for hitting out on the sensitive issue.
He told Andi: ‘It’s actually really not acceptable anymore in the workplace. No.
‘You were talking the other day, you had your own complaints about the way workplaces operate, I don’t like being fatshamed by you, OK? It triggers my anxiety, it’s wrong.’
‘Except you’re the one that always backs fat-shaming as a way to get people to lose weight,’ Susanna then added, but Piers wasn’t finished.
Piers was less than happy with the joke (Picture: ITV)
‘You fill me with self-loathing, everything about what you just did is offensive, wrong, and I really feel you should apologise,’ he added.
‘That’s not what he says off-air…,’ Susanna then added.
Andi was also unwilling to back down, and decided to push forward with the gag, and asked him: ‘But my question to you is Piers, before I contemplate apologising… Do you like a pie?
Andi refused to apologise for the comment (Picture: ITV)
‘I love a pie,’ Piers conceded.
‘Do you like all the pies?,’ Susanna added, causing him to burst out laughing.
While it looked like the tension was broken, Piers couldn’t help but get a little jab in himself about the comment before the moment was through.
‘If you are going to do the old fat thing, I wouldn’t wear such a form fitting top,’ Piers said.
Claws out, guys!
