Una Healy's bandmates are said to be "rallying around her" since her ex-husband Ben Foden announced his marriage to his girlfriend of two weeks.

The 34-year-old rugby star revealed that his former wife Una gave him her "blessing" to re-marry only one year after their tumultuous separation.

Their marriage crumbled due to Foden's string of affairs, which were made public last year and led to a shocked Una calling time on their relationship.

But according to reports, Rochelle Humes, Mollie King, Frankie Bridge and Vanessa White are supporting the singer after Ben’s surprise announcement.

A source told The Sun Online:

"The girls have all been there for Una. As soon as they heard what happened, Rochelle, Mollie, Vanessa and Frankie were straight on their phones as they were worried about their friend.

"They have rallied around to support her as they can only imagine what she is feeling. She's a strong woman, but her friends have let her know that they will be there for her through this as it is still a shock to the system that Ben would remarry so soon."

Ben and Una share seven-year-old Aoife and four-year-old Tadgh together but announced via social media over the weekend that he'd tied the knot with New Yorker Jackie Belanoff Smith.

He captioned the image: “This last year has been by far my toughest and most turbulent for a number of reasons that many of you I’m sure are aware of, in some way or another.

“The world has a funny way of working things out, many people think I’m a bad person – as I’m sure they’ll be many nasty comments left under this post by keyboard warriors aplenty. But I met a girl who seriously swept me off my feet and in a time of hardship showed me love, a deep devoted love."

“People will say we are mad or crazy or even fools, as Jackie and I had only been dating seriously for a little over two weeks before deciding to get married. But when someone like her comes into your life, why would I wait?

He adds: “The people who needed to know, such as close family and friends were told before anyone else and they are happy for me, including my beautiful ex-wife Una Healy, who I love even more for her blessing.

"Life is short and you only get one and it’s worth living," he continued.

"Jackie is the greatest human being I’ve ever come across – she’s beautiful inside and out, intelligent, charming, funny, generous, kind, gentle, energetic the list goes on."

He concludes; “She will be a great step mum to Aoife and Tadhg and offers me a future I can’t wait to explore with her."

We're glad Una has her best friends and bandmates around her for support, even though she's loved up herself. It must still be incredibly shocking to see your ex-husband remarry so promptly.

You can have your chance to stay in a property beside Prince William and Kate Middleton's country house in west Norfolk, and it's cheaper than a one-bedroom flat in London.

The Sandringham Estate listing have one catch; tenants must be cat-free and vetted, instead of a first-come first-served basis.

The house next door to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in West Norfolk is up for rent for just £700 per month, as Metro reports. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by  (@royaltyeurope_kids_fashion_) on

The Sandringham Estate rents out an array of properties in the area, including 20 Cherry Tree. The cottaged terrace has two bedrooms across from Amner Hall.

The property has a huge amount of green garden space and parking, but its famous neighbours will most likely be the main draw.

The website points out that they prefer to rent their properties to people who "live and work locally," though they'll consider "those moving to the area."

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by  (@rosy_____72) on

The letting adds, "Properties are not let on a first-come, first-served basis, but rather on which prospective tenant is best suited to the property."

They have a very strict no cat policy, but dogs will be "considered". The area has only 29 houses and a population of roughly 63 people. 

Amner Hall was a wedding gift to Prince William and Kate from The Queen, with about £1.5 million spent upgrading the mansion before they moved in.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Rainha Elizabeth II (@rainhadoreinounido) on

Anmer has a small population but a wide variety of amenities including; a social club offering film nights, quiz evenings and barbeques, an active Bowls Club and a Women’s Institute and a 14th century church; St Mary the Virgin.

Most of the homes in the village were lived in by those employed at Amner Hall and the Royal estate.

If you're interested in applying for the property and having William and Kate nearby, you can do so via the Sandringham Estate website.

Huge congratulations are in order for Brandon Jenner and his girlfriend Cayley Stoker, who have revealed they are expecting twins.

The couple shared the joyous news in an interview with People. Brandon, who just finalised his divorce with Leah Jenner, couldn’t help but gush about the news.

He said, “We are at 12 weeks now, so near the end of the first trimester. We’re madly in love and we are very excited about this!”

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Brandon Jenner (@brandonjenner) on

The couple have decided not to find out the gender of their twins. Cayley explained, “We have decided not to find out. We don’t want to know. We’re going to be surprised.”

Brandon is already a dad to three-year-old Eva James, whom he shares with his ex-wife.

The dad said telling his daughter that she will be a big sister was an incredible moment.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Brandon Jenner (@brandonjenner) on

“We told her together. Leah, Cayley and I sat down with her and told her what was happening, and she was very excited and happy. She’s super excited to be a big sister,” the dad revealed.

The musician said both of their families are overjoyed by the news.

Brandon was married to Leah for six years. The pair tied the knot in Hawaii on May 31, 2012. Three years later, they welcomed their daughter Eva James on July 22, 2015.

The parents have remained good friends since Leah filed for divorce last year. Brandon said they handled their breakup in the best way possible. 

He told People, “It was a process, and it took some time to finalize. And now that Leah and I have moved on, I am starting a family with Cayley, and I’m so happy about it.”

We got a text (message) about the future of Ovie Soko's career, and it's looking bright.

The Love Island star has become the latest Islander to land a presenting job after leaving the villa, with Maura Higgins appearing on This Morning for her own Maura Than Meets the Eye segments.

The professional basketball player will join Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes later this week on This Morning to present his own segment, according to The Mirror.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by  (@oviesoko) on

Ovie will have his own portion of the Thursday show, thanks to his egg-making talents from the Spanish villa. We don't reckon they'll include his "MESSAGE!" catchphrase, unfortunately.

"Cooking on This Morning is going to be dope, but I’ll need to graft hard if my infamous eggs are to live up to the hype for Love Island fans, Eamonn and Ruth," he joked. "They’re daytime royalty after all."

This Morning’s editor Martin Frizell said the team were “thrilled” to have the 6ft 7in basketball player on their team. Soko joined the show in the Casa Amor part, and later came in third place with India Reynolds.

Ovie's famous catchphrase was referencing the 1996 Wayans Brothers film; Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood. 

This Morning is putting Ovie in charge of the brunch menu, but he's not the only ex-Love Island star joining ITV's ranks.

Maura Higgins will travel across the country solving viewer problems for her Maura Than Meets the Eye segment, which hopefully will be comedic gold.

It’s safe to say we were delighted when Netflix revealed they were adapting the Baby-Sitters Club book series for modern TV.

The family series will feature 10 half-hour episodes and will follow the babysitting adventures of Kristy, Claudia, Dawn, Mary-Anne and Stacey.

The streaming service have yet to reveal who will play the five best friends, but they have found two of their cast members and we’re very excited about them.

According to Hollywood Reporter, Clueless icon Alicia Silverstone has joined the show and will star as Elizabeth Thomas-Brewer, Kristy’s mum and Watson Brewer’s love interest.

Mark Feuerstein will star alongside Silverstone as Watson Brewer.

Filming has already begun in Vancouver so keep your eyes peeled for more casting announcements.

The show will  broach topics from the books including racism, divorce and belonging, as well as issues facing modern day teens.

The books have previously been adapted into a TV show in 1990, but it only ran for one season.

Tommy Fury has spoken out against Anton Danyluk for the way in which he's treated his girlfriend, Molly-Mae Hague, since the trio left the Love Island villa.

The boxer has called Anton's petty behaviour 'childish' after he unfollowed Molly-Mae Hague on Instagram, and admitted that there's 'tension' between them all now.

During the reunion show, 24-year-old gym owner Anton was asked about the drama and he claimed they had never been friends in the first place and refused to follow the influencer.

20-year-old Tommy has since spoken about the issue on the Capital Breakfast show this morning, saying he didn't understand where Anton was coming from.

"I honestly couldn't see it, I thought them two were friends because obviously we’ve been on this whole experience together so I thought everybody would be friends.

"I think there was just a little bit of tension, you know, purely off what Anton said and about all the unfollowing stuff and all that…"

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by @mollymaebritain on

He added; "It really is… I think it's a bit childish because we’re all good friends here and there’s no need for any bad blood and on mine and Molly's part, there's no bad blood, we wish him all the best."

19-year-old Molly Mae admitted she was shocked when she discovered that Anton had unfollowed her.

Speaking on the reunion show, she said: "I hadn't even got my phone back yet and came out and the first thing I seen was that Anton had unfollowed me.

"At the end of the day, everyone's entitled to follow and unfollow who they want to, so it's not bothered me, but I was just a little bit shocked."

She added; "And I don't feel like I would have necessarily done that to him because we didn't speak much in the villa, so I don't really know why it happened, but no bad blood.

"You're my friend, even if I'm not your friend."

Anton denied any pettiness, explaining half-heartedly that; 

"What happened is, when we're in there, our management or whoever is running our Instagram follows for us. Molly came up on my Instagram and I'm sure Molly will agree with this, we've never even spoken in the villa, really."

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by  (@mollymaehaague) on

Their clash appeared to start when Molly-Mae and Tommy voted for Anton and Belle Hassan to leave the villa, which led Belle to brand the pair 'two-faced'.

At the reunion, Anton and Belle both denied this, saying that the public voted them out at the end of the day.

It seems that there's no love lost between the foursome, but does it all boil down to Anton getting pied by Molly-Mae at the start of the series when she eventually chose Tommy? We reckon so.

Want to make an attention-grabbing bouquet for a festival, hen do, wedding or party? Bloom & Wild's floral stylist Rowan Blossom and author of bestselling book Living With Flowers, is here to show you how. 

And good news. It's not as hard as you'd think. Everyone can do this. You just need to allow about an hour to make it on the day you want to wear it so it's lovely and fresh. But if you really, really won't have time on the day? Just make it the day before and fill it in a big bowl of cold water overnight. 

What you'll need:

– Measuring tape

– Floristry wire

– Green floristry tape

– Floristry scissors

– Ribbon of your choice

– 1 Bloom & Wild letterbox bouquet, we've used The Rebecca

Top tip:

Choose a bouquet with woody or rigid stems as they last longer out of water. Roses, carnations, leucospermum, celosia, and foliage like ruscus and eucalyptus are all great choices. 

Steps:

1. Measure your head then cut your floristry wire to size

2. Twist each end of wire to create loops. Hold them in place by tightly wrapping them with floristry tape. You'll pop your ribbon through these later.

3. Trim each flower down so there's only 1-2 inches of stem left. Cut down your foliage into sprigs this long as well.

4. Start by placing a piece of foliage at one end of the floral wire, keeping it as close to the loop as you can without covering it.

5. To hold it in place, grab your floristry tape. Keep it on the reel, but hold the open end over the stem wire, pull the tape until it turns clear then tightly wrap it around. Do this one or twice until it feels securely held. 

6. Repeat with a flower. You want to pop your flower as close to the foliage as possible to hide any signs of tape.

7. Then keep repeating steps 6 and 7, alternating between foliage and flower, until your crown is full. Remember to keep pulling your tape tightly and to keep your stems lined up in the same direction as you go. Try saving some of your bigger, focal stems for the front where they'll be most seen.

8. If any stems poke out of line, just trim them at the edge of the tape as you go along.

9 When you reach the end of your crown, secure the last piece of foliage in place by tightly wrapping it with floristry tape. 

10. Next, tie your ribbon through the end loops.

11. Then you're ready to go.

Victoria's Secret have hired their first out transgender model, only one year on from Ed Razek's controversial transphobic comments about the brand's annual fashion show.

The VS Angels have added Valentina Sampaio to their roster, making the model the brand's first out VS Angel. Sampaio announced the news to her Instagram followers, and her agent confirmed it with CNN.

Sampaio is already a spokesperson for L'Oréal, and was the first out transgender woman to feature on the cover of Vogue. She appeared on the cover of Vogue Paris in March 2017 with the issue covering transgender beauty.

She later covered Vogue Brazil and Vogue Germany in the same year as well as appearing on ELLE Brazil's cover in 2016. Trans inclusivity was once again the subject, with ELLE being ahead of the curve,

Sampaio broke the news last week on her Instagram, posting a photo of her backstage during a Victoria's Secret campaign. She captioned the photo; "Backstage chick" and tagged VS Pink.

The stunning model's agent, Erio Zanon, confirmed that the lingerie brand hired Valentina to be part of a campaign for the PINK line, which will be released in mid-August.

Many of us will recall Ed Razek, the chief marketing officer for Victoria's Secret's parent company, L Brands. The exec made controversial comments about plus size women and transgender models during an interview with Vogue last year.

Razek commented that Victoria's Secret had chosen not to include diverse women in the show, in terms of body physique and genders.

"Do I think about diversity? Yes. Does the brand think about diversity? Yes. Do we offer larger sizes? Yes," Razek told the magazine.

"It's like, why doesn't your show do this? Shouldn't you have transsexuals in the show? No. No, I don't think we should. Well, why not? Because the show is a fantasy. It's a 42-minute entertainment special."

Razek later apologised and retracted his comments, and his official statement was posted on Victoria's Secret's Twitter account:

"My remark regarding the inclusion of transgender models in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show came across as insensitive," Razek wrote.

"I apologise. To be clear, we absolutely would cast a transgender model for the show. We've had transgender models come to castings…and like many others, they didn't make it…But it was never about gender. I admire and respect their journey to embrace who they really are."

We've got no motivation after that lazy long weekend so ordering a McDonald's is most certainly on the cards this week.

McDonald's Ireland will be adding the Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese to it's menu from Wednesday, August 7. It will only be available for seven weeks, so make sure to grab one before they're gone.

For those of you with a sweet tooth, they've introduced two new ice-creams and we cannot wait to try them. McDonald's Ireland has two new McFlurry options on the menu, but for a limited time only. The Twix McFlurry combines soft dairy ice cream with Twix pieces and chocolate caramel sauce for a delicious treat.

The Mars McFlurry swirls soft dairy ice cream with pieces of Mars and a chocolate caramel sauce. Choosing your favourite flavour is about to get even harder.

It's officially Kylie Jenner's birthday, so the world will stop revolving and time will alter to suit the billionaire make-up mogul.

The 21-year-old woke up to her house completely covered in red roses yesterday morning, courtesy of her boyfriend and baby daddy Travis Scott.

Jenner shared a video of the flowers on her Instagram, captioning it;

“My house is covered in ROSES! Travis Scott and it’s not even my birthday yet!!!!! Omg.”

28-year-old rapper Scott gave her a sweet card which read; “Happy Birthday!!!! We’re just getting started. Love you!!!!”

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star turns 22 on August 10, but she appears to be getting a whole birthday month?

Jenner also showed off her rose-filled house on her Instagram Stories, saying;

“This man covered my house in roses OMG!!!!!!!!” Jenner wrote over the video, with the song Wake Up playing from Travis' album Astroworld.

In November of last year, the Kylie Cosmetics founder arrived home to a plethora of bouquets all over her house.

The world and it's mother are in LOVE with the ITV reality show winners Greg O'Shea and Amber Gill, yet the producers of Love Island aren't convinced that they'll last as a couple.

In previous years, ITV have rushed to make spin-off shows about the pairings and finalists, with popularity sky high, but this year things appear to be different.

According to The Sun, the producers are holding back as they fear the Islanders will split before the show is aired.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by  (@loveisland) on

The ITV bosses were embarrassed last year, when Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer's on-and-off relationship was hitting the rocks before their short-lived ITV2 series was broadcast.

Jack & Dani: Life After Love Island didn't get anywhere near the same amount of viewers, and the same thing happened in 2017.

Third-placed finalists Chris Hughes and Olivia Attwood's series Chris & Olivia: Crackin' On, saw the pair have an explosive break-up at the end of the three-part show.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Love Island (@loveisland) on

Amber Gill and Greg O'Shea were surprise winners of the £50,000 prize this year, after Greg had only been in the villa for 12 days.

They've only just confirmed vaguely that they're in an official relationship and still have a distance between them as Amber lives in Newcastle and Greg resides in Dublin.

Bosses don't feel it would be a wise choice to let cameras follow them around just yet.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Sky News (@skynews) on

A source said: “It’s been a publicity disaster in previous years, when couples split before their show aired or appeared to get back together just as the programmes came out."

The insider added; “Jack and Dani’s series was a perfect example last year, with everyone saying their relationship was fake.

“This year bosses want to take the heat off the contestants’ relationships, especially as it’s been such a choppy year for couples making a go of it. Instead they are focusing on winter Love Island and want to nail the casting for that series."

They continued; “Of course, they’re keeping a close eye on their couples to spot any potential for spin-off shows, but at the moment it’s certainly not looking likely.”

Most couples barely even make it to three months, and Greg and Amber have been predicted to last just 69 days by data analysts Watches2You.
