Ethan Craft was our dream guy when we were tweens.

The Lizzie McGuire character won us over with his love of spaghetti, floppy hair and goofy smile.

So, it’s safe to say we were a little bit heartbroken when the actor announced his engagement to long-term girlfriend Allegra Edwards.

This is not what dreams are made of.

Clayton Snyder took to Instagram to announce the major news. He gushed about his future wife, “2009•2019 Dear Allegra. Some things never change. Except, a lot changed, and then it got very similar, but very different, but better, and now, your finger’s a bit heavier. 

“And not just because of all the pecan pie. What a Thanksgiving. I love your laugh. I love your heart. I love your family. I love you. Looking forward to wifing you,” he added.

We’re not heartbroken… you are!

Hilary Duff hinted at Ethan’s return in a recent interview.

She told E! News, “He is hot. He's very hot. I'm pretty sure there's going to be, there's going to be a thing.”

The show will be available on Disney + in the coming months but fans on this side of the pond will have to wait until March 31, 2020 to subscribe to the streaming service.

One4all, Ireland’s leading gift card company, knows that the perfect present is always personal. To celebrate the launch of its brand-new One4all Digital Gift Card, customisable with imagery, text and video, One4all has enlisted James Kavanagh, Ireland’s favourite social media star, to get up close and personal with one hundred lucky competition winners this Christmas.

If you have ever longed for a social media shout out from James Kavanagh, or a wave of the paw from his feline friend Diana the Sphynx, this could be your opportunity for a wish come true.

One4all and James Kavanagh have today launched a competition* which will give one hundred winners the opportunity to send a loved one, or themselves, a completely unique and personal message from James Kavanagh which can then be gifted alongside the new One4all Digital Gift Card for the ultimate festive surprise.

To enter the competition, visit one4all.ie/james-competition and fill out the competition form with your personal details. The competition closes at midnight on Friday, December 13 2019 and winners will be chosen at random.

James, who is best known and loved for his devotion to Diana, Princess of Wales, his enviable candelabra collection and his enigmatic renditions of Enya’s Orinoco Flow, is one of Ireland’s most prominent influencers, with over 130,000 followers on Instagram alone. In addition to his social media antics, James is a TV presenter and one half of cooking duo Currabinny.

James Kavanagh commented on the new One4all Digital Gift Card competition:

“I was excited to preview the brand new One4all Digital Gift Card recently and I loved being able to send gas video messages to my friends and family alongside their gift. It’s a great way to inject a gift with some personality and I’m encouraging everyone to enter the competition.

“One4all Gift Cards have always been an ideal present in my eyes and now that you can send, customise and spend all on your mobile, everyone in my contact list will be getting a digital gift card from me this Christmas!”

Introducing the One4all Digital Gift Card

The new One4all Digital Gift Card is a world first, offering the same benefits that consumers know and love from the traditional One4all Gift Card while providing more flexibility, security and convenience.  The One4all Digital Gift Card is the only gift card that can be bought, customised, sent and spent from anywhere, at any time, from a computer or smartphone.

Once purchased, the One4all Digital Gift Card can be used immediately with over 8,500 retailers nationwide and online, including retailers such as Tesco, Arnotts, TK Maxx, Penneys, Marks & Spencer, Halfords and many more. Recipients can access their digital gift card via the One4all Gift Card app, which is available to download on any Apple or Android phone.

The One4all Digital Gift Card makes spending gift cards online more secure than ever before. A two-step authentication system has been put in place for users to access funds and there is also a strict security check in place to ensure that a One4all Digital Gift Card cannot be lost.

One4all has partnered with several payment and smart technology providers to make sure the One4all Digital Gift Card can be spent easily: 

  • One4all has partnered with Visa to allow for contactless transactions of the One4all Digital Gift Card above the €30 limit that is in place for other physical debit cards, to a €150 limit for the digital gift card only.
  • For anyone using a One4all Digital Gift Card on Apple devices, the funds on the digital gift card can be spent using Apple Pay.
  • For Android users, One4all has built its own payment system, which can be accessed using the One4all Gift Card mobile app on Android phones.

Every Christmas Ireland produces 83,000 tonnes of packaging waste. Much of this waste includes non-recyclable wrapping paper. To combat this the market will feature a Sustainable Wrapping Station, giving market-goers the option to wrap up their gifts with upcycled papers and materials. 100% of donations to this will go to our charity partner Inner 

City Helping the Homeless (ICHH), who’s outreach teams had a total of more than 9,400 on-street engagements with people sleeping out around the city, between July and September of this year. 

Native Events prides itself on being a sustainable company that encourages and supports enterprises who operate on sustainable and circular principles. The Sustainable Christmas Market is a Plastic Free Event and they encourage market goers to bring canvas bags, reusable coffee cups, and to travel on foot or by public transport to the event on bus routes 14, 14c, 15, 27, 27a, 27b, 29a, 31, 31a, 31b, 32, 42, 43, 53, 130 or by train from Connolly or Docklands Stations.

The Duchess of Cambridge attended the Nato reception at Buckingham Palace last night and we are obsessed with the green dress she wore to the event.

The mum-of-three always looks flawless, especially when it comes to important royal events like this one.

The mum-of-three wrote, “Being the oldest isn’t easy and sharing me with Leighton and Rex means I rely on Zach sometimes to just get on, as the other two are at a much more demanding age. (Which makes me feel awful)”

Stacey shared that she’s been eager to spend some quality time with her darling son and finally got the time to this week.

“I’ve been desperate to give him some undivided attention for a long time so Last night was a dream” she shared.

The mum gushed,  “I love you Zachary, we’ve been through so much together, and for a long time it was just the two of us. You’ve been by my side for 11 years and have pulled me through and lifted me up when I really needed it.

Downton Abbey fans, we’ve got some wonderful news for you.

A second movie is on the way!

Producer Gareth Neame revealed that they are currently in talks about creating a second Downton Abbey movie.

He told The Hollywood Reporter that they had this idea even before the first movie was released.

He said, “We started vaguely thinking about it [a sequel] before the release of the movie. But we were kind of holding our breath.”

Gareth explained that the stellar reaction to the Downton Abbey movie blew them away, “The reaction to the film, the press tour in the U.S. and the buildup to release were so strong that we'd been thinking about it.

He added, "It was clear from the first weekend that this was worth taking very seriously".

The team has yet to decide on a storyline, but there’s no doubt it’ll be just as fabulous as the first film.

“We're working on what the story is, and when we might be able to make it.”

However, the one hurdle they need to overcome is getting the entire cast together again. Trying to find a space in their schedules that works for everyone is going to be tricky.

“We have to try to get everyone back together again. And that was very challenging,” Gareth added.

“The challenge will be, is everyone available at the same time? Can we make deals with them? That will be the challenge.”

We seriously need this to happen!

This year’s Late Late Toy Show had the nation in tears. It was quite possibly one of the best Toy Shows of all time and it’s all because of the wonderful kids that melted our hearts on Friday night.

“They just seemed to come out with this wisdom and knowledge, self-awareness and kindness that seemed to make a lot of people cry."

"I found myself, uncharacteristically, having to take very deep breaths every so often because honestly, if I was to let go I probably wouldn't have made it through part two or three,” he revealed.

“I was, like everyone else, just taken aback by them,” Ryan added.

Gabby Allen has been labelled ‘disgusting and selfish’ after she leaked ex-boyfriend Myles Stephenson’s sexts.

The reality star shared her former partner’s private messages to prove that he cheated on her, but many stressed that it was unfair of her to do so when he cannot respond as he is currently on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.

Gabby stressed that the only reason she leaked the messages was to clear her name and to defend herself, however, a source close to Myles said it has caused even more drama and distress.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Myles Stephenson (@mylesraksu) on

The Love Island star posted numerous screenshots of texts between Myles and other women. He sent the messages when he was still in a relationship with Gabby.

The 25-year-old also posted a screenshot of an apology from Myles.

A source close to Myles told OK! Magazine, “We all think it’s really out of order for Gabby to do this to Myles when she knows he can't defend himself or reply to the comments.

"Yes he did cheat on her and none of us will defend that, but to share the messages he sent with the world is disgusting and selfish,” they added.

"Myles' mum and family have to now hear all about these sordid details and all because Gabby wants to feel like she's standing up for herself."

They added, “Gabby hasn't thought about how it makes his mum feel having to walk around her community and know that everyone knows these things about how her son behaved. It should have been kept private."

Was Gabby wrong to share the sexts or does she have a right to expose Myles?
