A pregnant woman in her 20s has died in a house fire in Co Antrim yesterday.

An investigation is underway into the cause of the blaze which broke out at a house in the Whitepark Road area of Ballycastle.

Emergency services and PSNI personnel arrived at the scene at around 5.30pm yesterday evening.

It is believed the woman, who was recently married and pregnant with her second child, may have suffered an asthma attack as a result of the fire.

Last night a police spokeswoman said: “Police attended the scene of a sudden death of a woman in her 20s in the Whitepark Road area of Ballycastle this evening. The death is not being treated as suspicious.”

Okay, lets set the scene – you're in the dressing room of your favourite store trying desperately to decide which dress you want to purchase for the big night out. 

You have sent a snap into the group Snapchat asking which dress looks best, but no one has opened it yet, and you're getting paranoid that the glam changing room attendant is going to be wondering why the hell it's taking you so long to try on two dresses. 

This is where Instagram's newest feature is going to change our lives.

Instagram is rolling out two new features. 

The first will be the introduction of a polls feature on their Instagram stories. 

This means that next time you need a second opinion, you can get it from the masses on Insta.

Choosing that night out ensemble just got a lot easier.

The second new feature is the option to source a colour for your story text from the image itself. 

So if you want the text you're writing to perfectly match whatever you're writing about, this new aspect will ake it all the easier, for aesthetically ideal stories.

Kendall Jenner has spoken up about that disastrous Pepsi ad in the latest episode of KUWTK. 

Kendall's tone deaf advert left audiences cold, and she faced mass criticism for starring in the ad.

'When I first got this offer, I mean it's a huge company,' Kendall begins in the video.

'The people I was following were so iconic and amazing.'

'Michael Jackson has done it. Britney Spears has done it. Beyoncé has done it. Pink. The list goes on.'

The model said that is she knew the potential outcome of the advert, she never would have agreed to do it. 

 

A post shared by Kendall (@kendalljenner) on

The star also admits that she feels horrible for offending people with the ad. 

'After I saw the reaction and I read what people had to say about it, I most definitely saw what went wrong.'

Breaking down into tears. Kendall said: 'Like I just felt so f*cking stupid.'

 

A post shared by Kendall (@kendalljenner) on

'The fact that I would offend other people or hurt other people was definitely not the intent.'

The confession has been met with a mixture of sympathy and indifference from fans. 

We think Kendall may have to live this one down for a little longer.

Danielle McLaughlin was found murdered on a beach on March 14 of this year, while on her travels in Goa.

Her family have confirmed that the murder case is now being 'fast-tracked' due to new postmortem results. 

The second postmortem was carried out in Ireland by Chief State Pathologist, Dr Marie Cassidy.

It reportedly confirms the results of the first postmortem, which was carried out in India. 

A local man, Vikat Bhagat, has been charged with the rape and murder of Danielle. 

Danielle's family have released a statement on the case:

'Danielle’s family have dealt with a lot of documents and information in relation to Danielle’s case over the last number of weeks and months,' according to Donegal Now.

'They are still trying to cope with and come to terms with the tragedy that has occurred.'

'Danielle’s family remain hopeful that the truth in relation to Danielle’s untimely death will be made known and that justice in her memory will be done.'

Over the course of the next year, money-messaging app, Plynk, will be creating 40 new jobs in the Irish capital as part of its European expansion.

According to numerous reports this afternoon, the company, which allows Facebook users to transfer money between accounts, will be seeking to increase their workforce, with plans to hire software engineers, UX designers, mobile app developers and customer service representatives.

Plynk, which is available on iOS and Android, was the brainchild of Charles Dowd and Clive Foley, and allows users to transfer money online for free following the creation of an account from which users receive a dedicated IBAN and virtual Mastercard.

Commenting on the announcement, CEO and co-founder Charles Dowd highlighted the benefits of joining the company.

"The new roles offer an exciting opportunity to be part of a leading fintech organisation, continuing with the development of our core product and building more features that are unique to the social payments industry," he said.

"We plan to expand further into Europe with eyes on Spain and Portugal next, and have every intention of becoming the de-facto pan-European money-messaging app," he added.

The new roles will be based in the company's Camden Street offices.

Earlier today we reported on Jimmy Kimmel's deeply moving tribute to the dozens of people who were murdered by gunman, Stephen Paddock, on Saturday night in Las Vegas.

While choking back tears, Jimmy offered a commentary on the senseless loss of life seen time and again in the United States due to a distinct lack of adequate gun control.

Insisting that 'prayers and thoughts are insufficient' as the United States comes to terms with the worst mass shooting in history, Jimmy appealed to those in power to use their 'common sense', and actively prevent the public from procuring weapons which can kill and maim hundreds of innocent people in mere minutes.

The studio audience applauded the presenter's heartfelt speech at the top of the show, and Twitter has also been quick to highlight the significance of Jimmy's words.

However, not everyone was as moved by the host's commentary on the massacre, with many taking to Twitter to accuse the father-of-four of an insincere address.

Form comparing car manufacturers with those in support of the 2nd amendment to suggesting that the host's stance was one of a Communist, Twitter didn't hold back when pouring scorn over JImmy's heartfelt plea.

Melanie Chisholm revealed she's lucky to be alive after restricting her diet during the early years of her career in the music industry.

The Spice Girl made the admission when she appeared on the TV series In Conversation With, telling comedian John Bishop how she suffered from depression and disordered eating while in the girl band.

Known for her athletic figure and sporty style, Mel kept her struggles out of the spot light.  

"I started to restrict my food to a point where I was just like – God only knows how I survived – but I think for maybe a couple of years, maybe it couldn't have been that long – but I was just eating fruit and vegetables," she said.

"That was it. And with that workload."

The 43-year-old previously spoke about her obsession with being the “perfect” pop-star, telling The Telegraph she thought she needed to look a certain way in order to be worthy of her success.

"I thought I had to be a certain way to be deserving of everything that was happening to me… to be a pop-star I had to be perfect, and that was my way of trying to achieve perfection.”

“I was exercising obsessively and all of my time with the Spice Girls I think I was probably living on adrenaline.

John Bishop: In Conversation with Melanie C airs on Thursday October 12 on W.

It may be almost 20 years (stop, we know) since the first Harry Potter book was published, but we're still desperately clinging onto hope that our Hogwarts letter got lost in the post. 

Clearly, someone else feels the same way, as Harry's Hogwarts letter from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, was up for auction and sold for an absolute fortune. 

'The hero envelope features a real red-wax Hogwarts seal, unlike the many entirely printed versions that were also used in the scene,' reads the description.

While the letter prop was originally estimated to go for up to €5,000, the final bid was actually more in line with the cost of a Muggle education. 

The letter sold at the auction for a whopping £30,000, or €33,807. Casual.

That's a Bachelors degree and a Masters degree, but we guess it's worth it for a wizarding education.

 The Prop Store Auction was also selling a number of other HP items, including Ron Weasley's iconic Howler sent to him by Mrs Weasley in the second film. 

The lot closed with a bid of £7,500, or €8453. 

If you are a Harry Potter mega fan with the cash to spare, we're sure it's worth it to own your own piece of Hogwarts history.

Scooter Braun manages some of the world's biggest pop talents, including Ariana Grande.

However, the manager and talent scout is most famous for managing Justin Bieber. 

The industry pro has spoken out about some of Justin's darkest days, when back in 2014 the singer faced jail time and a negative relationship with the press.

'It was worse than people realised,' Scooter told The Wall Street Journal Magazine. 

 

A post shared by Scooter Braun (@scooterbraun) on

'I failed him day after day. We were living in hell because he was in such a dark place.'

'I have inconveniences, and other people have problems,' he said. 

'Mine feel important, but they're not. They're not life or death.'

'Justin's stuff got to a point where it was a problem.'

 

A post shared by Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) on

It's clear from his managers words that the superstar was struggling greatly, but Scooter stuck by his pop prodigy. 

'Some of the biggest people in the industry, people invested in Justin's career, told me, 'It's over. Focus on something else. That kid is done,'' he told the mag.

'I made a promise to him when he was 13 that I would never give up on him.'

'I plan on keeping that promise.'

From Scooter's account that the singer has had some dark days, but his manager clearly had his back through it.

An online petition is gaining traction today, ahead of tonight's airing of an episode of Lucy Kennedy's Living with Lucy, featuring Katie Hopkins. 

The petition is aimed towards TV3, asking the broadcaster not to air the episode. 

Lucy Kennedy and TV3 faced criticism for choosing Katie for the episode, due to her controversial opinions. 

'Katie Hopkins actively promotes hate and racism and TV3 should not give her a platform for her hateful and outrageous views,' claims the petition. 

'TV3 must ensure that her views are not normalised.'

The petition so far has 798 of 800 signatures. 

'Racism and hate speech is dangerous and legitimises and provokes hate crime,' reads the petition manifesto. 

'Programmes such as Living With Lucy are designed not to critique or analyse the views of guests but to increase their popularity and familiarity with the general public.'

Katie Hopkins has called out the creator of the petition on Twitter.

A teaser trailer has also been released by TV3 ahead of the episode airing tonight, which shows Katie and Lucy in a disagreement. 

The episode is scheduled to air on TV3 at 10pm tonight.

TV3 has not yet responded to the petition.
