Katie Price has confirmed that her marriage to Kieran Hayler is over once and for all, after the notorious love rat was caught cheating again. 

The former model is said to be "distraught and humiliated" after her husband was caught texting a women who worked at her horse school.

According to The Mirror, a friend close to the star said: “Katie’s school was the one thing she was most invested in. She absolutely loves it but it has been ruined now.

“When she found out Kieran was messaging one of the girls from the club she was absolutely destroyed. This has ruined their relationship.”

The announcement come after a rocky year for the couple. In August, 39-year-old Katie revealed that she was planning to leave her husband after she learned of his fling with the the family's nanny, Nikki Brown. 

The 30-year-old painter and decorator has also previously has an affair with Katie's best friend, Jane Poutney. 

At the time, Katie spoke of how she wanted to divorce Kieran, however a number or recent sighting of the pair sparked rumours of a reconciliation.

However, it looks like their on-again, off-again relationship may have finally come to an end with a source telling The Mirror that the incident with the women in Katie's Pony Club was the final nail in the coffin.  

The pair have two children together, Jett Riviera, three, and Bunny, two. Katie also has three children from previous relationships, Harvey, 14, Junior, 11, and Princess, nine.

While it may seem like the fashion industry is making strides towards body positivity and self-love, not every company seems to be on the same page (or planet for that matter). 

Wish.com, a popular online-shopping service, has come under fire after it used slim models to advertise plus-sized women's tights. 

Sure, it's no secret that in the past thin models have been employed to advertise larger clothes, but it's almost 2018 and we're better than that.

The ads in question show tiny models stretch the plus-sized tights in bizarre poses, in what can only be assumed is an effort to demonstrate their bigger size. 

The models can be seen in various positions, with some even managing to fit their entire bodies into the garment. 

Needless to say, customers were disgusted by the "disrespectful" images, with many even taking to twitter to ask the question in everyone's lips: 'Why not hire a plus-sized model?'

Most of us have been mixed up with a sibling on at least one occasion, right?

Whether a teacher confused you with your sister or a relative attributed your brother's enviable talent for tennis to you, we've all been there in some way.

And that includes the A-listers.

While appearing on Graham Norton this weekend, Noel Gallagher had to navigate a potentially awkward moment when the host fell short on his research, and accidentally confused Noel with his brother Liam.

Attempting to establish a connection between Noel and his fellow guest, Jack Black, Graham alluded to a project they worked on together, only to be met with confusion by both parties.

And then the penny dropped…

An attorney representing actor, Charlie Sheen, has claimed that the editor of the National Enquirer ran a defamatory story about Sheen as a result of a personal vendetta.

The former Two and a Half Men star is suing the tabloid publication and its parent company American Media for claiming that he sodomised a 13-year-old male actor in the 1980s.

The article claimed that the crime against the late Corey Haim occurred when he was filming alongside Sheen as a teenager – an accusation Sheer wholly denies.

In documents which were filed in the L.A. County Superior Court, attorney Shane Bernard, points to his client's high-profile history with the press.

"The editor of National Enquirer, Defendant Dylan Howard, is running the story against Mr. Sheen because of a personal vendetta that arose after he was unable to be the first to break the story that Mr. Sheen was HIV positive."

"The statements are categorically false and in the article, Defendant NEI outright states that the individual who claimed that the abuse occurred, Defendant Dominick Brascia, is himself accused of having molested Corey Haim," writes Bernard.

"Thus, Defendant Howard and Defendants NEI and AMI entertained serious doubt as to the truth of the publication and/or acted with a high degree of awareness of probably falsity."

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, a spokesperson for American Media appeared to welcome the impending court case, saying: "We look forward to litigating against Charlie Sheen, and can’t wait to expose his depravities in a court of law."
