Talking about her opinions on porn, she told Perfect Magazine: “There have been times when I’ve been a porn enthusiast. I’m not currently in one of those periods.”
Admitting she recently had a blunder with new beau Jonah about porn, Lily continued: “However, I did try to get on to Pornhub the other day because my phone was connected to the Bluetooth speaker [backstage at a show] and I thought it would be really funny while everyone was getting ready to go to the toilet and put porn on and everyone would think I was secretly watching it in the toilet.
“But the wifi wouldn’t allow me to go on any restricted sites, so I couldn’t do it.
“And then I was in bed with my boyfriend later and when he asked me to Google something, Pornhub came up on my search history and I tried to explain but it just didn’t sound very believable.”
Lily added that she wasn’t embarrassed but was “annoyed” her other half didn’t believe her.
The singer confirmed her relationship in February after being spotted with Jonah several times.
After being asked who the last person she texted was in an interview, she replied: “My boyfriend.”
However, she didn’t expand further on the romance.
It comes after she split from husband David Harbour last year.
THEY’VE been soaking up the Ibiza sunshine, while wrapping their arms around one another like two lovesick teenagers at a beach rave.
So it’s only natural that fans have begun asking whether former glamour model Katie Price, 48, and party king Wayne Lineker, 64, could be embarking on a new romance after a trying year for Pricey – who ditched her wedding ring for the Ibiza bash.
It’s not the first time Katie Price has visited Wayne Lineker at his O Beach Ibiza resort (here pictured in 2025)Credit: BackGridBut this year, Katie put on eye-popping display in this tiny bikini for the businessman who made a cheeky joke about her boobsCredit: waynelineker/Instagram
Pictured on a sunbed at the O Beach Ibiza last week, with Katie wearing a barely-there bikini, the tactile displays of affection between the two showbiz veterans had everyone asking the same question: what on earth is going on here?
Indeed, one insider told me: “It certainly got everyone talking. Naturally people started to wonder if there could be a romantic spark between the pair.
“While many questions have been raised about Katie’s husband Lee Andrews and the reality of his finances, Wayne is the real deal.
“He’s raking it in with all his Ibiza businesses and he’s not ashamed to show off the rewards of his hard work.”
It’s no secret that Katie’s love life has been a rollercoaster of late.
After a whirlwind romance and shock January wedding to Dubai-based businessman Lee, recent months have brought a storm of drama.
Wayne, brother of football legend Gary Lineker, is known as a party boy, and many wondered if the newlywed was seeking comfort in his famously welcoming arms.
After all, he has a taste for models – with his past girlfriends including model Danielle Sandhu and the late Love Island star Sophie Gradon.
But before anyone starts buying a wedding hat for another Pricey trip down the aisle, we can reveal the real truth behind their close connection.
According to those close to Katie, the pair are strictly platonic and the tactile body language is simply the result of two larger-than-life personalities who love letting their hair down together.
“Katie and Wayne are just brilliant mates, plain and simple,” a close insider spilled to us last night.
“People look at the photos of them cuddling up or whispering during the eclipse, and because it’s Katie, they instantly assume there’s a massive romantic scandal brewing.
“But honestly? It’s completely innocent. They just get each other.”
My source continued: “They are both veterans of the showbiz scene and they both love a massive party.
“When Katie is in Ibiza, Wayne is her go-to guy. He treats her like royalty and ensures she has a great time.
“There is zero romantic spark there. She sees him like a fun, cheeky older brother who knows exactly how to throw the best parties.”
Katie’s recent trip to the Mediterranean wasn’t just a wild solo getaway to escape the exhausting Lee Andrews saga back home. It was a fun-filled adventure for her beloved eldest son Harvey, 24, who joined her on the Spanish island.
And it’s actually Wayne’s bond with Harvey that has cemented his status as one of Katie’s most treasured pals.
Harvey, who has Prader-Willi syndrome and is also autistic and blind, was also at the sprawling Ibiza resort dancing away to his favourite tunes.

For protective mum Katie, seeing the entrepreneur go out of his way to ensure her boy had a spectacular time meant the absolute world.
“Wayne is absolutely brilliant with Harvey, and that’s the fastest way to Katie’s heart. Not romantically, but purely as a loyal friend,” my insider revealed.
“Wayne rolled out the red carpet for them and even made sure he had his favourite meal of Spaghetti Carbonara.
“He makes Harvey feel so special, safe, and included in all the fun. Katie is endlessly appreciative of that.”
This supportive dynamic is especially poignant for the mum-of-five, given the well-documented absence of Harvey’s biological father.
Former Premier League footballer Dwight Yorke has played no part in his son’s upbringing, leaving Katie to deal with all of Harvey’s very complex needs on her own.
“It genuinely breaks Katie’s heart that Harvey’s real dad has never done a thing for him, so when she sees men like Wayne stepping up just to be kind, patient and supportive, she is so touched,” the pal explained.
“Wayne doesn’t have to go out of his way for Harvey, but he does it because he has a big heart. That’s why Katie is so loyal to him. She will defend their friendship to the hilt.”
So, while the pictures of them cosying up under the sun might scream new romance to the untrained eye, the reality is far sweeter.
It is clearly a feeling shared by Wayne, who took to Instagram to pay tribute to Katie.
He wrote a “special message” to the businesswoman, writing: “We’ve certainly had our moments over the years, you more than anyone knows that.
“We’ve faced obstacles, made mistakes and sometimes been our own worst enemies.
Wayne and Katie were also seen cuddling during last year’s getaway to Ibiza after years of friendshipCredit: INSTAGRAM @waynelinekerKatie’s husband Lee is said to remain locked up in Dubai after being sent to prison last month for the second time this yearCredit: Instagram
“But through it all, there’s one thing I believe we’ve always shared: our two hearts and our genuine love of helping other people.”
With the baggage of her recent marital woes weighing heavily on her mind, Katie wanted a place to let off steam with her son.
And the O Beach did not let her down. The club’s waitresses, wearing skimpy outfits, added to the upbeat party vibe, showing off their best moves on the stage and holding up cards spelling ‘Harvey’ as partygoers chanted his name.
Harvey looked over the moon and threw his hands up in the air with joy.
“Katie knows exactly what she’s doing,” our insider laughed. “She knows people will talk when she wraps her arms around Wayne in a tiny bikini. But she doesn’t care anymore.”
Whether her husband Lee, who remains in Al Awir prison, will be equally nonchalant remains to be seen.

The Sun revealed this week that Louise and boyfriend Drew Michael had splitCredit: GettyFriends insisted she is thriving as a singletonCredit: Getty
They also shared snaps of them enjoying some quality time together at the pool.
The Sun revealed this week that Louise and Drew had ended things.
But friends insisted she is thriving as a singleton and she recently jetted off twice on girls’ trips to Ibiza.
A source said: “Louise and Drew decided to end things a little while ago.
“Things had been really good between them but it felt like their relationship had run its course and they both thought it was best to move on.
“It was all very amicable and although it’s never fun when a relationship ends, Louise has thrown herself back into her social life and her busy work schedule.
Drew’s thought to have moved abroad for work so it’s been a clean break.
“She’s in no rush to jump back into another relationship because she feels very fulfilled with her life right now, but she’ll see what happens.”

FORMER Strictly pro James Jordan secretly lived apart from his wife Ola for months prior to their split.
Pals said he moved into a flat earlier this year close to the five-bedroom house the dancers once shared.

James, 48, is said to have “needed space” as he and Ola, 43, embarked on a trial separation after 22 years of marriage.
A source explained: “It was James’s decision to move out, he needed some space. It happened months ago. He has been holed up in a small flat in Kent.

“These past few months have been tough for James but he is trying to keep moving forward. Ola has been supporting him as best she can but their decision to end their marriage has been incredibly difficult for both of them.”
James was photographed looking downcast as he walked close to his flat last week, minus his wedding ring.

It read: “We’re taking some time apart as we work through very difficult personal challenges.
“James moved out of the family home some time ago. This has been an incredibly painful and emotional journey for us both and it certainly wasn’t an easy decision.”
It said James’s mental health “hasn’t been in a good place for quite some time”.
James added: “I’ve been struggling more than I’ve let people see and I’m taking the time I need to focus on getting myself into a healthier place, both for myself and for Ella.
“Neither of us is in a good place right now. We’re both doing our best to navigate one of the hardest chapters of our lives.”
AS she returns to the UK stage for the first time in years, we reveal how heartache has left its mark on Ariana Grande.
She is the quintessential pop princess.

But away from the bright lights of fame, Ariana Grande has had to overcome more serious challenges than any of her contemporaries.
And while it is Taylor Swift who is known for her defining “eras”, Ariana has done some major reinvention of her own.
As she arrives at London’s O2 Arena on Saturday for a 10-night stint of her The Eternal Sunshine Tour – her first in seven years – it will be a very different woman to the one who last performed in the capital.
An insider reveals: “Her tour might be called Eternal Sunshine, but there’s no doubt she’s battled some really dark days and dealt with more tragedy than most her age. Perhaps most impressively, she keeps going, whether it’s movies, music or her search for true love.”
Fresh from her gruelling two-movie Wicked filming schedule and press tour, which took over her life for the best part of three years, Ariana, 33, is back doing what her fans love most – being a pop star.
Her tour sold out in 15 minutes, with more than 2 million people trying to buy tickets when they were released in September.
Her big UK comeback coincides with a time of emotional turmoil for the star, though.
He had fallen for her during filming, and the outcry threatened to overshadow promo for the first Wicked film.
“The whole thing was a major strain,” the source says. “Ariana has been desperate to put all of it behind her.”
The split was the latest blow for the star, who pursued fame from a young age.
Born in Florida in 1993 to parents Joan Grande and Edward Butera, she landed her first role in a Broadway show aged just 15.
Her major break came a year later, when she was cast as the bubbly Cat Valentine in Nickelodeon hit series Victorious, turning her into a household name.
But it was her extraordinary four-octave vocal range that truly set her apart from her contemporaries, and by her early 20s Ariana had made the leap from TV favourite to global superstar, topping charts around the world with singles such as Right There and The Way.
Meanwhile, her love life was rarely out of the headlines.
She enjoyed romances with rappers Big Sean and Mac Miller, not to mention her infamous engagement to comedian Pete Davidson (Ariana broke the internet when she commented that Pete had “big d**k energy”), as well as a short-lived marriage to luxury real-estate agent Dalton Gomez, which ended months before news emerged of her relationship with Ethan.

It was Mac Miller who supported her through one of the most difficult times of her life.
In May 2017, 22 people were killed and more than 1,000 injured when a terrorist attack took place at her Manchester Arena concert.
The bombing was the deadliest terrorist attack in the UK since the 2005 London bombings, and it deeply affected everyone who survived it – as well as those close to the victims.
Ariana developed PTSD in the aftermath, and then-boyfriend Mac dropped everything to help her through it.
A year later, however, further tragedy struck when the rapper, who by then had split from Ariana, died after an accidental drug overdose.
After so much grief in such a short space of time, the star revealed it was her music that helped her to cope.
“I was doing so much therapy, and I was dealing with PTSD and all different kinds of grief and depression and anxiety,” she told The Hollywood Reporter’s podcast, Awards Chatter.

“I was, of course, treating it very seriously, but having music be a part of that remedy was absolutely contributing to saving my life.”
While Ariana’s fans are delighted that she’s made a return to touring – and there are a lot, with 363 million followers on Instagram alone – her tour dates have not resulted in the celebration she may have hoped for.
Concerns have been raised about her dramatic weight loss in recent years, exacerbated by her return to the stage.
One commenter wrote: “Objectively speaking, Ariana Grande is dangerously underweight.” Another added: “She needs help.”
It’s undeniable that Ariana is much smaller than she once was.
The singer was forced to comment about her size when speculation reached fever pitch during Wicked promotional interviews.
Both she and co-star Cynthia Erivo were subjected to relentless chatter about their thinness.

During an interview to promote the first film, Ariana was asked how she copes with exacting beauty standards for women and the “overwhelming” pressure they feel to always look perfect.
It was a question that elicited an emotional response. Holding back tears, Ariana replied: ”Good question,” before describing the pressures of growing up famous.
“I’ve been doing this in front of the public and kind of been a specimen in a petri dish, really, since I was 16 or 17 years old, so I have heard it all. I’ve heard every version of it, of what’s wrong with me. And then you fix it, and then it’s wrong for different reasons.”
She then went on to condemn the narrative, adding: “I think in today’s society, there is a comfortability that we shouldn’t have at all [with] commenting on others’ looks, appearance, what they think is going on behind the scenes or health or how they present themselves.
“There’s a comfortability that people have commenting on that, that I think is really dangerous – and I think it’s dangerous for all parties involved.”
Those who know Ariana best are understandably protective of the singer, who is repeatedly described as “sensitive” and “vulnerable” behind the scenes, but also praised for her incredible professional commitment.
She is said to be “laser-focused” when it comes to work. The various trials and tribulations life has thrown at her, they say, have left her “damaged, but determined to grow and make a difference with her music and performances”.
It was bagging the role of Glinda, says one insider, that changed the course of Ariana’s life forever.
“This is a role she had wanted to play since she was a child, and Ariana gave it everything. It pushed her on, and she’s never looked back – it definitely raised the bar when it came to her career. It took everything out of the cast, though, as they cared so much.”
Friends and co-stars of Ariana all say the same – that she is uniquely kind and loving.
The Sun’s Associate Bizarre Editor Howell Davies recalls meeting her in the aftermath of the Manchester bombings, and her One Love Manchester concert to honour those who’d lost their lives.

He says: “I had been a massive fan of Ariana for years and was meant to go to the Dangerous Woman Tour in London in 2017, which was cancelled after the Manchester bombing.
“A year later, she made a surprise performance at Coachella festival in Palm Springs. When I spotted her backstage with Mac, I told her how courageous I thought she had been. She was sweet and composed. It really felt like she had time for her fans and wanted to speak to me.”
It would be understandable if Ariana never wanted to sing again, but her return to pop has been important to her.
She told The New York Times: “There was something broken about my relationship to pop music that was healed recently through the time away.”
Now, she’s entering a new chapter – one she will certainly be hoping is less turbulent.
With the release of new album Petal, fans are enjoying her return to the pop princess we know and love – and with this latest tour, she’s giving everything to reconnect with them in person.
Music aside, Ariana is also taking on other exciting projects. She signed up for a comedy role in the latest Meet The Parents sequel Focker-In-Law, starring Robert De Niro (who sang her praises) and Ben Stiller, which is due for release in November.

The pair, who dated for a year from 2015, were spotted having dinner in Texas together in June this year, and spent the Fourth of July together in Florida.
He also attended her New York concert date, and the insider says: “They are enjoying downtime together between shows.”
Ariana appeared to confirm the rekindling last month, while performing Thank U, Next in Brooklyn, after changing the lyrics to: “Wrote some songs about Ricky, we always find our way back,” and at another gig in Austin she sang: “He has still got her back”.
An insider says: “This is something of a ‘comfort rebound’ for Ariana, who is feeling vulnerable post her split from Ethan. Ricky definitely makes her feel safe. And more than anything, Ariana wants to be happy again. Settling down is what she has always been keen to do.”
There was, of course, set to be another string added to her bow, with her West End stage debut in London. Ariana and her Wicked co-star Jonathan Bailey were announced as the leads of Sunday In The Park With George, a musical by Pulitzer-Prize-winning Stephen Sondheim.
This was one of the most hotly anticipated theatre events of 2027 – but earlier this month Ariana pulled out, with the role now set to be recast.
In a statement, her team said: “Ariana will be taking a step back from visibility after she completes the Eternal Sunshine Tour.”
“She looks forward to finishing the tour and ending it on a high note, both healthily and happily, and then taking a much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances, which has led to endless, ongoing public scrutiny.
“This tour has been a beautiful experience for her.
“She loves her fans and has loved every minute of this tour so much.”
From the little girl in Florida who was musical-theatre-obsessed to the 33-year-old woman who has weathered storms with grace while working her behind off, Ariana has proven that she is a rare thing: a star who cares what people think of her.

She is currently single after high-profile marriages to footballer Ashley Cole and restaurateur Jean-Bernard Fernanzed-Versini plus relationships with US dancer Derek Hough and the late One Direction singer Liam Payne, who is the father of her son Bear.
A source said: “Cheryl is incredibly picky about what she chooses to do these days and spends a lot of time on motherhood, but she feels like she has a story to tell.
Her PR man did not respond when I reached out for comment.
Last year it was reported that Cheryl was in talks to make a telly comeback by appearing on The Voice, and she was spotted having a low-key dinner in Italy with pal Will.i.am, who is a mentor on the ITV talent show.
Over the years Cheryl has featured in several high-profile documentaries including Access All Areas, which followed her first solo arena tour.
Speaking about the 2012 doc, she said: “I literally had a friend of mine filming so that I would not feel like I had a camera crew in my way and at times forgot myself.
“I have since regretted this decision. The number of times I cringed watching it.”
I’m sure fans would love to go behind the scenes with Cheryl.
SLIPKNOT ‘CUT TIES’ WITH SID

SID WILSON has been “kicked out” of heavy metal band Slipknot after 28 years, according to sources.
The American DJ and keyboardist, who joined the group in 1998, is understood to have been sent packing on Friday.
It comes just five months after Sid – known in the band as #0 – split from his fiancée Kelly Osbourne.
I can reveal Slipknot have also parted ways with the PR company that has represented them since 1995.
A source close to the band told TMZ, “Sid was notified late Friday afternoon that he has been permanently kicked out”.
The musician proposed to Kelly backstage at her dad Ozzy Osbourne‘s final Black Sabbath gig at Villa Park in Birmingham last July.
Just weeks later, Kelly suffered heartbreak when Ozzy passed away.
She and Sid had started dating in 2022 and had son Sidney at the end of the same year.
However, she has since sparked fresh romance rumours with her supposed new hairdresser partner Kiinicki – a Los Angeles-based barber and creative behind the brand Hella Good Hair.
Kelly shared snaps of herself with Kiinicki, who uses they/them pronouns, in April.
And the pair were spotted at an after-party following Lily Allen‘s gig at the London Palladium in March.
Sounds like Kelly has got Sid out of her hair.

AMERICAN singer Jessica Simpson is set to have her life made into a Netflix documentary.
It will be developed by director Joe Pearlman, who created Robbie Williams’ docu-series and Lewis Capaldi How I’m Feeling Now film.
A source said: “It will be a four-parter similar to Robbie Williams’ one. Like him, Jessica has faced her demons and been through trauma having started in the music industry aged 17.
“Filming is expected to start this year and will show Jessica talking about everything she’s been through.”
SAM THOMPSON and Pete Wicks seem to be building an empire – having joined forces on a new financial venture.
I can reveal that former Made In Chelsea star Sam and ex-Towie hunk Pete, who own Staying Relevant Productions and co-host a podcast, have set up PWST Investments Ltd.
Details lodged with Companies House show the nature of the business is “security dealing on own account”, which relates to investing in stocks and shares, futures, securities and commodities.
A source said: “Sam and Pete have become comedy gold on their podcast, but they are serious when it comes to business.”
Move over power couples, bromances are big business.

In the latest episode of his latest Staying Relevant podcast that he co-hosts with best pal Sam Thompson, 33, a smitten Pete, 37, talked about what makes him happy in a relationship.
The usually gruff reality star was asked what his “love languages are”, to which he replied: “Mine I would probably say are physical touch, quality time, and acts of service.”

Co-host Sam then agreed, and said that his was also “physical touch”.
It came when the former Towie star flew out to Ibiza as Olivia filmed a new series of her show, Bad Boyfriends.

Loved-up Pete then shared a series of black and white shots, which saw them cuddled up together.

Best pal Sam was quick to comment: “Never thought I’d see the day YOU hard launch!! couldn’t be happier for you brother.”
She even told Junior about her hopesCredit: ITVThe former couple have never been in the same room since their divorce – but that could soon changeCredit: Getty
Princess said to her: “For my official launch, I will probably just invite close family and friends.”
Katie went quiet as she replied: “Yeah… I mean, I still haven’t met up with your dad face-to-face yet.
“It is weird, isn’t it?”
Princess agreed before adding: “But everything happens for a reason1”
Katie then appeared to take a swipe at Peter and their split as she added: “Does it?
“I think some things could have been avoided but it is what it is and you just move on.”
Princess nevously smiled after her mum’s comments before the conversation drew to a quick close.
Later on, Princess told brother Junior of her latest plan.
Before their chat, Princess told the camera: “It is so important for me that for my official launch, I have as many friends and family there as possible.”
She then said to Junior and his girlfriend: “Mum and Dad are in a truce now so I am just gonna invite Mum and Dad and whoever wants to come, comes.
“It might be quite awkward though.”
Junior appeared unconvinced by the plan as he replied: “Yeah, their first time in a room?
“When I used to perform, I never invited mum and dad to one show so it could be good and they’ve got a truce.
“And it is about you and supporting you so yeah, I love that.”
JENNIFER Lopez’s marriage to Ben Affleck was a “publicity stunt” engineered to revive her star power, her first husband has claimed.

Ojani, who lives in Florida, has said the seeds of her diva behaviour were sown long before she became a household name.

Ojani scoffs at the carefully manufactured working-class narrative, alleging that the Jennifer he met had lived a remarkably comfortable, middle-class life.
And he says the Jennifer he knew was a “sweet naive young woman”.
He said: “She was working on a TV show at 18. She had money and her mum was a teacher. She is a fake.”

Arthur even offered to coach Prince George and Princess Charlotte, saying: “If you guys want to hit some balls any time, just let me know; that would be great.”
However, he has chosen to crop the Princess of Wales out of the frame on his dating profile.
A source said: “Arthur became a household name in a matter of days after reaching the Wimbledon semi-final as a wildcard entry.
“He is hoping to follow in the footsteps of Andy Murray, who made history when he won at Wimbledon in 2013 and 2016. Arthur has also become a heartthrob among Gen-Z and his professional sports background makes him a catch.”
On Raya, the tennis ace has included a snap of him waving to the crowd on Wimbledon’s Centre Court following his crushing semi-final defeat to Germany’s Alexander Zverev earlier this month.
He has also added a pic showing him in action on the famous grass court along with a post-match interview during the tournament.
Meanwhile, Arthur mentioned he was educated at prestigious Stanford University in the US, where he studied science, technology and society on a tennis scholarship.
The French-born player has linked his profile to We Are The People by Australian electronic music duo Empire of the Sun.
Speaking about his music taste, Arthur previously said: “I like [Aussie dance music act] Rufus Du Sol. It gets me in the zone.
“I like British rappers as well. Dave, Central Cee.”
Arthur was thought to be dating former schoolmate Honor Millard, a foodie influencer known online as The Honorable Chef.
But it definitely seems he is searching for a new doubles partner.
Who says love means nothing in tennis?

TYLA looks cappy-go-lucky, as she performs on US telly.
The South African singer wore the leopard-print hat with a metallic bralette for her set on NBC’s Today show at New York’s Rockefeller Plaza.
It came as she released her second studio album, A*Pop, which includes hot tracks That Girl and Kiss.
Meanwhile, fans can also snap up a £63 Tyla Bratz doll, decked out in the same dress Tyla wore to the Met Gala in New York in May.
Oh, and I’ve been told the singer will be making her way to London this week.
If you fancy a cuppa, Tyla, you know where to find us.
LIL BIT OF HAPPINESS FOR JESSIE

JESSIE J announced her split from former basketball player Chanan Colman this week – but hopefully a catch-up with her showbiz pal Lily Allen gave her reason to Smile.
The pair were seen putting the world to rights just days before Price Tag singer Jessie confirmed the end of her four-year relationship.
They were deep in conversation at London’s Royal Albert Hall, where they attended the Silver Clef Awards and were both recognised for their contribution to music.
Earlier in the night, Jessie told Biz on Sunday’s Emily that she is “living in the moment”.
The star, who has three-year-old son Sky with Chanan, announced she was cancer-free in May after her diagnosis with early-stage breast cancer last year.
She said: “There is always a risk of it coming back, so I want to celebrate every day that I don’t have it. I would love to learn how to ride a bike – I can’t, which is sad, isn’t it? I want to learn Danish and how to play the piano.
“Living in the moment and having a bit of perspective – my son is the core of my world so everything stems from him.”
Jessie also told how she loves touring, adding: “My touring family . . . get through whatever challenges we have.”
LOTTIE’S IN HER HOLISTIC PHASE

I can reveal that the younger sister of supermodel Kate Moss has set up a holistic community that will offer sound baths, yoga and breathwork events.
US actress Gwynnie has made millions from her wellness and lifestyle brand Goop, which she set up in 2008.
I am told Lottie has also taken inspiration from actress Pamela Anderson and wants to “strip back” her image after she started modelling at 16.
The brand – Phase II – has recently set up an Instagram page and promises, “a wellness concept for discovering the next phase of your life”.
A source said: “Lottie wants to create a community that has wellness at the core.
“She wants it to be accessible for everyone and wants to help people find balance in their life. A lot of wellness challenges set unrealistic expectations and that is what Lottie wants to avoid.
“Her main message is that she wants people to have fun and go out but also enjoy yoga on the weekend.
“It does not need to be one or the other.”
It comes after her sister Kate closed down her wellness and beauty brand Cosmoss last June after three years.
It sold products including a £125 Sacred Mist perfume and £95 pots of face cream.
Lottie, who is currently dating art dealer Themy Kalaitzis, has previously opened up about her battle with addiction and how the toxic culture of the modelling industry affected her mental health.
Sounds like she is stepping into this next chapter of her life with a yoga mat in hand.
IT’S ALL CHA-CHA-CHANGE
Strictly bosses have unveiled the five new professional dancers that will be hitting the dancefloor this autumnCredit: BBC
STRICTLY Come Dancing bosses have unveiled the five new professional dancers that will be hitting the dancefloor this autumn.
Ukranian dancer Aleksandra Isaeva is ranked in the world’s top 21 Latin dancers.
She has been dubbed the new Nadiya Bychkova as the blonde pair both hail from the same country.
Speaking about her new BBC role, Aleksandra said: “I’ve been living and breathing dance for as long as I can remember, so joining the Strictly family is a true honour.”
She will be joined by her Italian dancer partner Cristian Priori, who has revealed that he is “excited to begin this new chapter”.
South African Latin Champion Lethabo Monametsi – who has been on stage with Diana Ross and composer Hans Zimmer – also joins the line-up after starring on The Masked Singer SA.
And Canadian champ Mark Karmalita and Bournemouth-born Maddie Ingoldsby will make their debut on the show this September, too.
I bet they can’t wait to hit the ballroom in their sequins.
PRICE OF FAME FOR PRINCESS

KATIE PRICE’s love life has been nothing short of a soap opera.
But that has not stopped the former glamour model – who, in January, married conman Lee Andrews ten days after she met him in Dubai – from giving her kids some dating advice.
Katie stars on ITV2 series The Princess Diaries alongside her daughter Princess and son Junior who she shares with her ex-husband, Peter Andre.
In scenes set to air, Katie says: “When you are in the public eye and you meet someone and want a relationship with them, you’re so proud to be with them but try to keep it as private as you can for as long as you can.
“Because there will be a point where someone will get a picture or something like that and I find that hard.”
Princess added: “If I was seeing someone, I would want to make sure it was a long-term thing before I make it known.
“My mum’s love life has been all over everywhere and yeah, I probably wouldn’t want mine to be like that.”
The third series of The Princess Diaries airs is due to air on July 28.
RACHEL BAGS GIFT FOR TOUR

The businessman, who has Italian and Turkish-Cypriot heritage, has already been inundated with offers from talent agencies – and he hasn’t even left the villa in Majorca yet.
I hear that agents are eyeing up Lorenzo, right, to attend Milan and London Fashion Week in September.
A source said: “Lorenzo is going to face a bidding war when he comes out of the villa.
“He has a great head of hair, which would make him perfect for a men’s haircare brand, and he ticks a lot of boxes in the style stakes.”
Lorenzo is also the favourite to take home the £50,000 prize in tomorrow night’s Love Island final, following his romance with Polish-born insurance broker Julia Majchrzak.
Sounds like he will be a winner whatever the outcome.
JENNIFER Lopez’s first husband squared up to Sean “Diddy” Combs in a blazing row after the rapper had an affair with his wife, The Sun on Sunday can reveal.
In a world-exclusive interview, Ojani Noa — the original Mr J-Lo — claims he confronted the disgraced star in a terrifying Hollywood bust-up.

A defiant Ojani reveals: “She cheated on me with Diddy.
“I confronted him and told him I wasn’t scared of him.”

Thank you!
Ojani also tells for the first time how Diddy threatened superstar Jennifer — now 57 — and verbally abused the singer at her own home, leaving her “in fear for her life”.
Cuban-born Ojani married J-Lo in 1997, a little over a year after a passionate whirlwind meeting but they split 11 months later as Jennifer’s hunger for global fame took over.

Jennifer then started officially dating Diddy, now 56, in 1999 but the toxic couple finished their tumultuous relationship in 2001.
Ojani, a 52-year-old personal trainer living in Florida, today discloses for the first time the explosive moment he stepped in to protect his ex-wife from the Bad Boy Records founder.
He recalls: “It was the year she dumped him.
“We were still friends and we had decided to start over again.
“Everyone makes mistakes and deserves to be forgiven once.
“She had tried to dump Diddy before and he had threatened her and her family.

“He turned up to her assistant’s birthday party in Los Angeles — which Jennifer had thrown for her — and everyone was shocked.
“I went over to him and told him to leave and he told me to back off. He asked me who I was, to which I replied, ‘F*** you’. I told him he had slept with my wife.
“Jennifer got in between us. She said he would leave but he didn’t.
“I got upset with her and at the end of the night she got in his car and left.”
The dramatic showdown at the party was only the beginning of a terrifying campaign of intimidation.
Ojani says that a few weeks later Jennifer — who has always remained notoriously tight-lipped in public about her dark history with Diddy — called him, “terrified” after the rapper turned up at her Los Angeles home and began screaming her name.
He reveals: “She said she was scared and afraid so I instantly left work and came over.
“When I got there it was pitch black and I couldn’t see anyone, so he must have been hiding. As I drove in he started shouting and telling her he knew I was inside.
“That’s when I fronted him up. Jennifer was on the balcony and told me not to as she was worried.
“She told me he had guns but I told him that I would f* him up.
“She said she was going to call the cops but a neighbour must have called them as they turned up and Diddy ran away.
J-Lo went on to marry dancer Cris Judd, music icon Marc Anthony, and actor Ben Affleck – twiceCredit: GettyOjani said that when J-Lo told millions of viewers on TV that she was ‘happily married’ it was the final strawCredit: Getty
“She had said to me before that he could do bad things. But I told him to his face that he was a coward.
“That’s why he was always with bodyguards with guns because anyone could take him one on one.”
Ojani arrived in the US illegally aged 15, after making the perilous 90-mile trip from his home in Cuba to Florida with six friends on a homemade raft.
Washing dishes at Latin pop singer Gloria Estefan’s Miami restaurant, Larios On The Beach, the ambitious 22-year-old worked his way up to become head waiter.
It was there that he first locked eyes with Jennifer, then 27. The pair hit it off immediately and Ojani packed up his life to move to Los Angeles to be with her.
He famously asked her to marry him with a diamond ring during the crowded wrap party for her breakout film Selena.
Lucrative offers came flooding in from every corner of the entertainment industry, including a multi-million-dollar record deal from Sony music mogul Tommy Mottola.
But that meteoric rise to the top was the moment things started to unravel between the newlyweds.
Ojani says: “Everything was great and we were so in love.
“I was in charge of launching a nightclub in LA called The Conga Room which was part-owned by Jen, while she went off to make her debut album — On The 6 — in New York and Miami. That was when Diddy was drafted in to help produce several tracks.
“They knew each other way before the media reported they did.
“She started hanging out with Diddy more and more, and I started seeing her less and less.
“Then the rumours started. I still had a lot of friends working in Miami hotels who would call to say they had seen them hanging out and leaving together.
“She would tell me it was just work. But then a picture appeared in the US magazines of her sitting on Diddy’s lap at the pool of Miami Beach Hotel. We started to fight really badly as I knew she was cheating on me.”

Desperate for answers, Ojani took a six-hour flight from Los Angeles to Miami to sneak past security into Jennifer’s luxury hotel suite.
He waited for hours to challenge her face-to-face.
“She was on her own,” he said.
“But she was shocked I was there.
“I told her again she was cheating and we got into a massive fight.
“The next morning she went to the studio and I went back to Los Angeles. She rang me and said I couldn’t do that again.”
As the marriage crumbled, Jennifer’s public relations machine was working overtime to present a picture of domestic bliss to the world.
Ojani says an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show, where a beaming J-Lo told millions of viewers that she was “happily married”, was the final straw.
“We went to the Oscars and she was using me so she could pretend to everyone that everything was OK. It wasn’t. So we got divorced.”
IT was billed as the showbiz wedding of the year. As Elton John, Charli XCX and Hollywood royalty descended on Sicily to watch Callum Turner marry Dua Lipa in a £1.5million extravaganza, one notable guest was nowhere to be seen.
Instead of raising a glass with his son, Callum’s father Laurence Coles was more than 2,000 miles away at an altogether different event in North London. Now, I can reveal the shocking reason why the actor’s dad missed the celebrity ceremony – and the complicated family history that makes his absence all the more surprising.

Two thousand miles away in North London was Laurence Coles – known to friends as ‘Larry’, and to Callum Turner, ‘Dad’.
The actor has previously described his relationship with Laurence as “loose” – hardly surprising given the pair spent much of Callum’s childhood living at opposite sides of the world.
However Larry’s recent return to the UK has allowed him to build a relationship with Callum – with the family spending time together and mingling on holidays.
Yet, in an unexpected turn, I am told that Laurence, who lives in Hastings, East Sussex, travelled to London for a wedding – albeit not his son’s.
Callum’s parents Larry and Rosemary Turner were unmarried and living at separate addresses when he was born in February 1990.
Callum was given his mother’s name, Turner, and was brought up by Rosemary in a council flat on an estate in Chelsea, West London.
Meanwhile, Larry was beginning an entirely different life on the other side of the world.
The former Hammersmith plasterer swapped London’s building sites for Sydney, where he also retrained as a psychotherapist, settled down and started a second family – leaving Callum growing up almost 10,000 miles away.
Fast-forward three decades and things looked very different.
Despite the fractured start to their relationship, father and son appear to have grown much closer in recent years.
But in a surprising twist to their father-son relationship, Larry not only missed his son’s wedding – he was attending a completely different one instead.
Instead, he was a guest of Jamie Rae Keeble – the daughter of Spandau Ballet drummer John Keeble – as she tied the knot in the capital on the same day as Dua and Callum.
The contrast could hardly have been starker. While Callum’s guests were arriving at a secluded Sicilian estate by chauffeured cars for what insiders dubbed the “showbiz wedding of the year”, Laurence was celebrating another couple’s big day back in the capital.
The revelation comes despite signs that father and son had grown closer in recent years
Last Christmas, Callum was pictured enjoying a festive meal with Laurence, fiancée Dua and his younger half-siblings Louis and Clemmie after Larry returned to Britain following almost three decades in Australia.
Clemmie has become particularly close to the couple, joining Dua on girls’ trips to Ibiza.
She also has a sweet snap of her and Callum on her Instagram from the GALA Festival in South London in 2019.
A source said: “Laurence and Callum have been estranged over the years but it was nonetheless strange that he was at a wedding on the same day his son got married.
“Laurence kept a low profile but some people questioned the fact that he was at a wedding on the same day his son was marrying Dua.”
Growing up, Callum’s mum Rosemary worked as a promoter for the clubs in SW3 – brushing shoulders with models and musicians on the fashionable King’s Road in London’s Chelsea.
Rosemary is now the co-founder of Counselling For Life and is described as an “experienced psychotherapist” on LinkedIn.
The actor previously told the Evening Standard: “The thing I always found interesting in my childhood was, yeah, I was growing up on an estate, single mum, working-class, but then I also had all these colourful characters around.

“It wasn’t about navigating two worlds,” he said. “There were three, four, five more.”
However Callum, who starred in Marc Webb’s 2017 film The Only Living Boy in New York, also said the father-son relationship was “alien” to him.
“I didn’t understand the relationship between the son and the father,” he said in 2019.
“It was completely alien to me.”
Larry, now 66 and once again single, lives in a period flat in a smart garden square in fashionable Hastings on the east Sussex coast, from where he practices his therapy.
Friends locally have said they know Larry is now in regular contact with his son, and is reportedly “unashamedly proud of Callum.”
That makes his absence from one of the biggest days of the actor’s life all the more surprising.
Though his father wasn’t in attendance, Callum’s half-siblings Louis and Clemmie attended the spectacular Sicilian wedding,
Beyond family, their three-day Sicily extravaganza was every bit the A-list affair insiders had promised.
Around 200 guests descended on the 18th-century Villa Valguarnera, with Joe Alwyn, Mark Ronson, Grace Gummer, George Daniel, Elton John and Charli XCX among those celebrating.
Guests were reportedly asked to sign non-disclosure agreements, while metal barriers surrounded the historic estate to keep fans and photographers at bay.

It was once a Mafia hideout but has since been taken on by 76-year-old Italian author and translator Vittoria Alliata di Villafranca, the Princess of Valguarnera, who still lives in the estate.
Dua stunned in a bespoke Chanel haute couture gown featuring a seven-foot train, handcrafted using 25,000 feathers and almost half a million beads, while Callum opted for a custom Louis Vuitton suit.
Days earlier the pair had made things official during a private legal ceremony at London’s Old Marylebone Town Hall before jetting to Sicily for the lavish celebration.
Dua was introduced to Callum in 2023 while having dinner at The River Cafe in London with her dad and manager Dukagjin Lipa.
They were introduced by the restaurant’s co-founder, Ruth Rogers, after having crossed paths many times before.
Dua told the fashion bible: “This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don’t know, be best friends forever – it’s a really special feeling.”
JADE Thirlwall has split from Jordan Stephens after six years as a couple.
The Little Mix star began dating the Rizzle Kicks singer in 2020 and had since moved in together – dividing their time between homes in London and Margate.

But The Sun has learned they separated earlier this year, although are still close.
A source said: “Jade and Jordan had a very serious and loving relationship but recently they have had some frank discussions about their future and have decided to separate.

Thank you!
“It’s not been an easy time but they’ve both been throwing themselves into work.
“Their friends adore them as a couple and are really hoping they get back together but it’s still very raw at the moment.”
They have also not been photographed together for several months – with their last red carpet appearance as a couple being at February’s Brit Awards where they partied until the early hours.
Neither have posted about each other on Instagram since mid-March, and Jordan recently wiped all of the TikTok videos they made together from his profile.
When asked in June about progress on her second album, she hinted at her heartache.
She told The Fader: “I’m just writing stuff. Whatever I’m going through at the minute, like privately, I’m sort of putting pen to paper.
“I think this is the exciting phase or the experimental phase, where you don’t know what it’s going to be yet.”

The Sun first revealed they were dating in 2020 after they went on a series of socially distanced walks during the Covid lockdowns.
The Shout Out To My Ex singer said she “slid into his DMs” after a friend suggested they would be a good match, and they had dates on video call.
She explained: “It was through a friend. I slid in the DMs. I’d been doing this for quite a while. I kept getting pied left, right and centre.
“Jordan and I did a few Zoom dates in lockdown. We made a joke and said it was business and put suits and ties on and asked each other questions. I did the full shebang, a full suit.
“Then we had a socially distanced date in Greenwich park, apart from each other just chatting.”
Jordan recently took over as co-host of the popular Miss Me? podcast with Miquita Oliver, replacingLily Allen.
Fans had noticed he hasn’t spoken about Jade on the podcast for several weeks.
He had a successful career as one half of pop duo Rizzle Kicks from 2008 to 2016 before relaunching the group in 2024.
As a musician, Jordan also worked on her debut album That’s Showbiz Baby! which was released last year.
Jade said at the time: “I actually really didn’t want to date a musician. I’d done it previously; it never works out well. But it’s amazing now. We write together.
“He’s on my album; I’m on his. Jordan’s on the backing vocals for Headache.”
She is currently on a festival tour which will see her spend August travelling across America, Japan, Ireland and the UK.
Katie Price has threatened her truce with her ex-husband Peter AndreCredit: SkyThe former couple were married for fours years after meeting in 2004Credit: Getty
Today, the former pin-up shared two TikTok videos that were sympathetic to what she had been through with men.
Over the short video was written: “Nothing could ever make me hate Katie Price after watching her new documentary.”
The second TikTok clip that Katie re-posted was a fan’s statement which read: “The Katie Price documentary is just a prime example of how a man can manipulate you, make you thinkyou’rer weak and basically knock any confidence that you had outoff.
Katie shared a series of TikTok posts which were aimed at PeterCredit: tiktokOne of Katie’s fans shared this statementCredit: tiktok
“That poor girl has been ruined by men over and over; we let them get in our heads and believe every bad word they say about us.”
What made it even more clear that the TV star was taking a swipe at her ex, was they were the only two videos that she has shared that aren’t plugging her CBD brand.
“It doesn’t mean to say I’ll ever forget anything. But I’ve just got better things in my life. What’s the point in reminiscing about the past like that? I’ve got no energy for it.
“I want to put all my energy into me and the future. I’ve seen all the TikToks of us [fans often share clips of Pete berating Katie on their reality shows], so I don’t have to say anything.”

Another photo shows the two looking into one another’s eyes as they pose in the grounds of their wedding venue.
Mel B, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton were all in attendance as Victoria Beckham was noticeably absent from the big day.
The chic gown, which oozed elegance and featured a swooping backline, was plucked straight from Posh’s collection of her own Victoria Beckham gowns in her wardrobe.
Melanie C wore a custom Adidas robe to get ready for the ceremony, made from ivory silk with white silk stripes.
The look was completed with custom white and gold sliders featuring the wedding date in gold on the side.
After the meal, Melanie C changed into another custom Adidas look — an elevated interpretation of a tracksuit, with high-waisted, wide-legged trousers and a cropped jacket featuring a peaked lapel and deep ribbed waistband.
This look was again made from ivory silk with white silk stripes, worn with custom Superstar trainers.
Insiders said Mel B and Geri, who have not seen eye to eye since Scary accused Baby of lying about her age in 2022, put on a cordial display.

“They chose a classy, laid-back ceremony before a reception with their closest friends and family.
“Mel B gave a speech which got a lot of laughs, as well as some tears — it was really beautiful.
“Geri was there but there was no awkwardness between her and Mel B.

“It was a day for celebrating Mel and Chris’s love for each other and that was all anyone wanted to do.”
Insiders said the reception at the venue, in Castle Carrock on the edge of the Pennines, went on until the early hours of yesterday.
Melanie C, 52, told British Vogue the wedding was “low-key, relaxed, romantic and chic”.
She added: “I’m so excited for the world to know he’s my husband.”
Melanie said of her wedding dress: “Victoria’s dress was my something borrowed. It was very special, having her there.
“Victoria wanted to make it much more personal to me.
“She found some gorgeous vintage lace, and everything was really delicately dyed to the perfect shade. It’s very flattering, open at the back.”
Melanie’s daughter Scarlett, 17, from her relationship with Thomas Starr, was bridesmaid at her special day.
Melanie is the last of the girls from the pop group to tie the knot, having met Australian model Chris back in 2023 on celeb dating app Raya.
ONCE the golden couple of Hollywood, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s multi- million-pound divorce battle rumbled on longer than they were man and wife.
And ten years since proceedings first started, the bitterness between those involved shows no sign of slowing down.

Brad, 62, watched in horror this week as the final steps were taken to remove any trace of him from the once-glorified “Brangelina” clan.
In a brutal move, his children Maddox, 24, and Zahara, 21, have both filed court papers to officially change their surname from Jolie-Pitt to just Jolie.
Sign up for the Showbiz newsletter
Thank you!
Siblings Shiloh, 20, and Vivienne, 18, have already turned their backs on the Pitt name, while Knox, 18, has also dropped it from informal documents and is estranged from Brad.
This leaves only Pax, 23, still using the Pitt surname.
Insiders say that Brad has been left privately “devastated” by the decision.
A source said: “One by one, his children, who he was once so close to, have removed their connection to him.
“He really wonders if he’ll ever rebuild bridges with his shattered brood now.”
It is the latest twist in the family saga, following on from allegations of physical abuse, financial coercion and severe family PTSD as well as a Father’s Day Instagram post from Pax calling Brad a “world-class a**hole”.
It all helps cement Brad and Angelina’s divorce as perhaps the most toxic the entertainment world has ever seen.
In September, it will have been a decade since Maleficent star Angelina, 51, first filed for divorce from movie heart-throb Brad.
Their relationship started not long after they met on the set of 2005 film Mr & Mrs Smith, when Brad was still married to Jennifer Aniston.
They wed in 2014 but, less than two years later, in September 2016, they split in explosive fashion.The former couple had previously adopted Maddox, Zahara and Pax before having Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox.
But Brad, who was once inseparable from all six kids, has now been well and truly frozen out.
Legal notices published in the Los Angeles Daily Journal yesterday reveal that both Maddox and Zahara have filed petitions to change their surnames.
If approved, the changes will become official in court, with Maddox’s hearing set for September 14 and Zahara’s two weeks later.
Zahara has publicly gone by Zahara Jolie since starting university.

Shiloh legally dropped “Pitt” after turning 18 in 2024, while Vivienne was credited simply as “Vivienne Jolie” as a production assistant for the Broadway show The Outsiders.
Pax is the only one still using the Pitt surname, but he has an incredibly difficult relationship with his dad, who he once claimed made his younger siblings “tremble in fear”.
Brad’s relationship with his children seemed to change for ever after an ill-fated flight in 2016, which also marked the end of the high-profile showbiz marriage.
The couple are said to have tried to keep their blistering rows from the children, but that became impossible in the confines of a private jet.
In a report filed by the FBI about the incident, Angelina claimed Brad yelled at her before pulling her into the toilet, where he pushed her against the wall and punched the ceiling repeatedly.
It is also alleged that when one of their kids tried to protect their mum, Brad “choked one of the children and struck another in the face”.
It has long been rumoured that it was Maddox who was assaulted.
The report said Brad then poured beer on his family as they tried to sleep.

The incident led to an investigation by children’s services, with Angelina being awarded temporary full custody and Brad only allowed supervised visits. He was later fully cleared.
Just days later, Angelina filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.
Pax’s private Instagram post on Father’s Day 2020 suggests the kids experienced problems before and after the plane incident.
He wrote: “You time and time again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person.
“You have no consideration or empathy toward your four youngest children, who tremble in fear when in your presence.
“You will never understand the damage you have done to my family because you’re incapable of doing so.”
Brad later confirmed that his boozing had become a problem, revealing he had visited Alcoholics Anonymous groups.
He said: “I had taken things as far as I could take it, so I removed my drinking privileges.

“You had all these men sitting around being open and honest in a way I have never heard.
“It was this safe space where there was little judgment, and therefore little judgment of yourself. It was actually really freeing just to expose the ugly sides of yourself.
“There’s great value in that.”
The confession did nothing to quell the animosity between the parties, though.
And while the divorce might have been finalised in 2024 — after eight agonising years — another legal fight is still rumbling on.
The former lovers are locked in an acrimonious $350million court battle, known as the War Of The Rosés, over Angelina’s decision to secretly sell her stake in their Chateau Miraval vineyard and home for $64million to Russian booze tycoon Yuri Shefler in 2021.
A source said: “Ines wants to have a life together — with possibly children in the future — without the albatross that is the eight-year War Of The Rosés.”
While Angelina’s attorneys have filed explosive allegations in court, she has kept a mostly dignified silence.
In 2020, the actress turned human rights advocate addressed the ugly split in a rare interview with Vogue.
She said: “I separated for the wellbeing of my family. It was the right decision.
“I continue to focus on their healing.”
During another interview, when asked if she worried about the safety of her children, she said: “Yes, for my family. My whole family.”
And during the Press tour for her 2021 Marvel film Eternals, in which she played Thena, a warrior battling memory loss and a fantasy-world version of PTSD, she revealed that she had been diagnosed with the condition.
She said: “I had talked to the director about experiencing PTSD myself a few years ago and my own fears about not being strong enough to protect those that I love.”
And while Brad might have moved on, Angelina, who was widely once considered one of the world’s most beautiful women, remains single.
Last month, she said: “To be candid, I haven’t dated since I divorced a decade ago.
“So I kind of get in my head that that aspect of me is not centered in my life if I’m focusing on my children, my family.”
It is true that all six children have certainly been caught up in the crossfire of their parents’ decade-long war, with the sorry saga serving as a cautionary tale to other Hollywood couples on the cusp of divorce.
Now, as the February 2027 trial over the battle for the French vineyard looms, peace still seems a long way off.
And while Brad might still be fighting over his financial future, his legacy with his family appears to be long gone.

It looked like this time it was for good as they unfollowed one another on Instagram and removed all pictures of each other from their grids.
But in a mysterious turn of events, Andy, 37, and Lou, 42, have re-followed each other on the social media platform again.

Not only that, but all of their photos together have reappeared on their respective pages, sparking rumours of a reconciliation.
The Sun have contacted Andy and Lou’s representatives for a comment.
At the time, Andy was accused of being “very drunk” as onlookers claimed he shouted he was “done” with Lou.
However, Lou stood by him as the couple brushed off the controversy.
They claimed the situation was “blown out of proportion” in a joint statement, which read: “Whilst having a private dinner in a restaurant on a quiet holiday in Mykonos, we had a heated discussion of the sort that most couples have had on occasion.
“It quickly became apparent to the police that there was no reason for them to be there.
“We went outside the restaurant with them together as they insisted they wanted to ‘look after’ us.

“As far as we are concerned, the situation has been blown out of all proportion by an interested member of the public. No one was arrested, and no one was charged with anything.”
They added: “We are very happy, in love and looking forward to our future together, and we are disappointed that a private disagreement has become a public matter.”
The couple split again in August of last year and at the time, Andy opened up about his ongoing booze issues.
In August, Andy said he was fighting to save the relationship – and confirmed they had been rowing about his drinking.
He said at the time: “Things have been difficult for me and I’m going through a divorce.
“Some of our rows have been about alcohol, as Lou has been teetotal for 14 years and I have a beer or wine at dinner and a drink after the game, but it’s not a problem in my life.
“I’m a professional footballer and that’s not the case. I play sport every single day so my level of fitness is really good. I play football every day so I’m fit.”
Lou garnered fame for famously being the hairdresser and make-up artist to One Direction and now has 5.4 million Instagram followers.
Andy marriedTowiestarBilli Mucklow in 2022 but two years later, it was announced the couple were divorcing.
He shares three children with Billi, and has two from a previous relationship.
Lou is a mum to 14-year-old daughter Lux Atkin from a previous relationship.
“I’m enjoying being single, but I do have nights where I think: ‘Wouldn’t it be nice to have someone to cosy into?’” she told us.
“However, I know it sounds cliched and corny, but I have all I need at home with my family.”
Una’s decision to stay single comes after a string of very public heartbreak.
Una’s romance with David Haye hit the headlinesCredit: InstagramUna denied she was ever in a ‘throuple’ with Sian and DavidCredit: Instagram
The singer’s six-yearmarriageto rugby star Ben Foden ended in 2018.
It came after the shattering discovery that he had cheated on a night out with rugby pals in February 2015, days after the birth of their son Tadhg, now ten.

The rumour mill went into overdrive when she was snapped in her bikini on holiday standing next to the boxer, with his wife Sian on the other side.
It was widely reported that the three had started a “throuple” romance, something which Una has STRONGLY denied.
In an interview with the My Therapist Ghosted Mepodcast in May 2023, Una said: “I’m a monogamous person, hopefully I will settle down again one day with a nice monogamous man.”
She also claimed that when she first met Haye on a dating app, he told her he didn’t “believe that traditional relationships exist anymore.”
She added: “He was honest that I wasn’t the only woman he was seeing. I was very aware that he was seeing other people.
“I was like, ‘I’m out. This isn’t for me. He can have whoever he wants’. One will never be enough for him.”
The star has also dated jockey Aidan Coleman and Irish singer Darren Flynn.
Despite wanting to embrace single life, Una has dipped her toe into the dating app pool, and even signed up to the celebrity site, Raya.
“Sometimes I think I would like that person, but I’m not gonna settle for anyone,” she told us.
“I went on and off Raya a few times – it was like fishing in a swamp. I’m working hard on myself, I’m not looking at all. As my friend says, ‘I am gonna attract, not chase.’”
