They fell in love on set, and now The Vampire Diaries stars, Joseph Morgan and Persia White have said “I do”!

The couple were engaged for two months before tying the knot in front of 26 guests in Jamaica.

Persia spoke about the ceremony with delight, saying: “It had a very rustic feel to it. There was nothing about it that was overwhelming or very huge or fabulous in that way. We tried to keep everything really intimate and beautiful and sort of get along with nature.”

This wedding certainly sounded unlike many other celebrity weddings!

Man searches for his long-lost Irish love

Relationships

Jul 23, 2014

by Amber Saunders

A former Leicester rugby player is seeking out an Irish girl he met while over in Ireland for a game in Lansdowne Road back in 1958.

Michael Freer says that he shared a “dance and a chat” with a girl called Bridie Fortune, and has never forgotten her.

Michael wrote his young love a letter when he returned home to England, and actually arranged for her to come over and visit him in 1961.

However, Michael’s job in the Metropolitan Police got in the way, and the reunion never happened: “I got a call from the office and I had to rush off to catch the train. I never got a contact number for her because I had to leave so quickly … I’m annoyed because I let her down. She had bought tickets to see a film in the theatre and I didn’t get to pay her back … I wouldn’t blame her if she was [annoyed].”

The elderly man has said that looking for his former love is proving difficult, saying: “It’s amazing how many bloody Fortunes are in Ireland, it’s crazy.”

Here’s hoping for a happy ending in this long-lost love story.

13 reasons sex is the unsexiest thing ever

Relationships

Jul 22, 2014

by Amber Saunders

We’ve seen all the movies where everything is so passionate as they do the no pants dance. But thanks to editing, we never see the awkward, ‘do you have a condom?’, or trying to take of your boots at the side of the bed. There are some things about sex which are just really unsexy.

1. Hitting Your Head Against The Headboard
In a non-sexy, painful way.

2. Sweatiness In General
Think about it. After an hour at the gym, you’re hot, sweaty, dehydrated and the thought of being touched makes you want to die. That is sex!

3. Leaving Your Socks On
It’s a lose-lose situation. There is no sexy way of taking your socks off but there is nothing more disgusting then a warm, sweaty, scratchy piece of fabric caressing your leg.

4. Condoms
They are a complete necessity yet they are completely unsexy. Worth it though, in the end!

5. Dirty Talk
Dirty talk just doesn’t work. ‘What are you going to do to me’ just doesn’t have the same effect that it did in the classic, ‘Womb Raider’.

6. The Orgasm Face
It’s perfectly natural but you have no idea what you look like…it could be anything. Like this:

7. Doggy Style
It feels great but there is nothing sexy about it. The general position, the awkwardness of trying to get into that position in the first place. And in it’s simplicity, you are having sex like a dog.

8. The Willy
They just dangle there. It looks like an elephant’s trunk from behind. They’re just disgusting.

9. The Vagina
It’s just skin with a hole in it. It’s an entrance into the unknown. At some point maybe even a person will come out of it? An actual person!

10. General Undressing
It’s never like the movies. It’s incredibly awkward. Do you undress each other or just do it yourselves. If you’re wearing skinny jeans it’s just a bad time. You had to almost sling shot yourself into them and now you have to be all seductive without flailing your legs about like a washed up dolphin.

11. Trying to be Quiet
There’s nothing worse then trying to be quiet in the throws of passion. You have the same face when you’re trying to remember if you turned the oven off earlier.

12. ‘That’ Noise
You know that noise. That squelching sound. ‘Squelch’. *Shudder*

13. The Queef
A fanny fart is a woman’s worst nightmare. There’s no coming back from it. You heard it, he heard it. He’ll pretend he didn’t and carry on but the whole act of lovemaking is just ruined. Who knew some wind caught in an up draught could cause so much havoc.

9 totally legit reasons to be mad at your other half

Relationships

Jul 16, 2014

by Amber Saunders

Ok so, sometimes we overreact and get upset that your boyfriend clearly took the last perfect pizza slice on purpose instead of offering it to us. But these reasons are completely fair reasons to be upset with your other half. Those jerks.

1. He Didn’t Text Her Back

Seriously, how hard is it?

2. He Didn’t Ring You While He Was Drunk

They say the truth comes out when you’re drunk so if you didn’t call that means you weren’t even thinking of us. Who DID you call then, huh?!

3. He Rang You While He Was Drunk

What a di**. How dare you ring her and wake her from her slumber, to tell her that even in your deepest, drunkest states, you’re thinking about her. Absolute di**head

4. He Has 12 New Female Friends On Facebook

What the…How does one even MEET 12 people in one day?!

5. He Has Been Tagged In Photos With Hot Women

Right now, we’re thinking: “it’s a good think he’s not that great looking, because these hoes look too hot to handle.” Remove the tags now.

6. He Chose A Lads Night Over A Date Night

A lad’s night out is all well and good but at least pretend to be torn for the love of God.

7. He Called Your Friend Hot

Well why don’t you just go run off with her then you absolute d***.

8. You’re Hormonal And He’s Happy

So. Insensitive.

9. He Forgot A Momentous Occasion

Our 2 year kiss anniversary? Are you SERIOUS?! Gah.

The 15 signs that boy is definitely a keeper!

Relationships

Jul 16, 2014

by Amber Saunders

Some guys just have it all, don’t they? Sweet, kind, gentle, loving, you name it, he is it! Here are the 15 signs you may have bagged yourself Prince Charming himself.

1. He makes you laugh
A sense of humour is one of the most underrated qualities in a person. If he can make you laugh, you’ll always be entertained with him and you’ll enjoy his company that much more.

2. He takes care of you when you’re sick
If you ever felt like you were doubting how much he cares about you, if he takes care of you when you’re sick and sniffly, you’ve got yourself a keeper.

3. He doesn’t check out other girls when he’s with you
Every man and woman does it, and it’s okay. You check out that ass that just walked by but don’t ever do it in the presence of your girlfriend or boyfriend. That’s always a big no no, it’s just downright disrespectful.

4. He laughs at your jokes
He laughs at your jokes, not because he feels like he has to, but because he genuinely finds them funny. There’s a sense of ease and comfort when you talk with one another – nothing is forced.

5. He buys you great gifts
Any guy who has mastered the art of buying girl presents is a king among us mere mortals. What do girls like? We don’t even know what we want so picking out a girlfriend’s present is one of the toughest tests a man will ever have to face.

6. His personality doesn’t drastically change when he’s drunk
He doesn’t have a schizophrenic alter ego who appears after 4 drinks. All of our personalities get a bit more obnoxious when we’re drunk, but there is a limit to how far the acceptable amount can go. If he doesn’t start flipping tables, mouthing off and embarrassing you in public when he’s drunk, he’s probably okay.

7. He has plenty of guy friends
He has plenty of guy friends to hang out with, so he won’t become the overly-attached OBSESSIVE boyfriend. He has other people to spend his time with when you’re out with your girls.

8. He’s always honest with you
He’s not shady and he doesn’t lie to you. This is always a good indicator of someone’s personality. If he lies about the trivial small things, what makes you think he wouldn’t lie about the bigger things, like cheating?

9. He has an interest in what you do
He takes an interest in your job and your hobbies. That’s how you’ll know that he’s DEFINITELY into you. Tick!

10. He cuddles after sex
He won’t do the deed and roll over to face the wall. Sex with you is more to him.

11. He encourages you to have girls’ nights
He doesn’t try and keep you from your friends or want to spend every second of every day with you. He knows that your friends are just as important as he is and encourages you to see them too.

12. He is pretty useful in the kitchen
If he can cook anything more substantial than two slices of toast, that’s a big plus. If he ever brings you up breakfast in bed without you asking, he’ll immediately hold the key to your heart.

13. He’s not afraid to stand up for himself and his loved ones
He doesn’t take any sh**, and he will always stand up for his friends, family and you if anything ever kicks off.

14. He knows when to give you your space
He knows that you need your time alone and doesn’t harass you or make you feel guilty for not spending time with him when you’re not feeling well.

15. He surprises you with the occasional night out or gift
He whisks you out to dinner, surprises you with a gift or a weekend away. And it’s not even your birthday, anniversary or Christmas, whaaaat?!

14 things you will learn from a long-term relationship

Relationships

Jul 15, 2014

by Amber Saunders

There are some things that can only be learnt through the joy (and pain) of a long-term relationship:

1. Opposites Do Attract

Just because you’re not the typical picture perfect couple, with all of the same interests in all of the same things, does not spell disaster.

2. Common Ground Can Be Anything And Everything

Really, anything!

3. Don’t Be Afraid Of New Experiences

When someone new comes into your life, so too does everything in their life. Friends, family, trips, events, plans. Go with the flow and embrace everything that’s thrown at you. Consider it all a learning curve and an experience.

4. Be Prepared For His Lad Friends Banter

There’s nothing quite as nerve racking as meeting his lad friends for the first time. You’re going to be slagged and then dissected afterwards, so at least have some cutting responses ready for the man brigade awaiting you. They appreciate that so much more than a timid, awkward girl in the corner.

5. Drunken Nights Bring You Closer

Whether it’s telling him things that you never would sober, finally revealing your whopper dance moves or minding one another, being drunk in front of one another breaks down any barriers and makes you bond that little bit more.

6. All Of His Friends Aren’t Going To Love You

Sadly. Maybe you’ll strike lucky, but more than likely not. Hey, you can’t be to everyone’s taste and if you dislike them too then it’s grand.

7. You’ll Need A Serious Amount Of Patience

Men can be infuriating sometimes, in fact, make that most of the time. Exercise as much patience as is humanly possible, until he pisses you off so much you must inform him politely. Or rudely. Whatever floats your boat.

8. If Your Parents Like Him, He’s Probably A Good One

If he passes the test of parental questioning, then he’s pretty much a winner. Your parents aren’t going to pull any punches when it comes to reviewing your newest male conquest. They’ll give it to you straight. Poor lad…

9. Long Distance Relationships Are Awful But Rewarding

People really aren’t exaggerating when they say that being in a long distance relationship is tough. It’s frustrating, tiring, lonely and most of all, when you’re in separate countries, the amount of happy couples everywhere seems to treble. When you do get to see one another though, you’ll really make the most of it and enjoy your time together. Plus, if you can get through a long distance relationship together, you’re doing pretty well.

10. Buying Them A Present Is Always Confusing

What do we get?!

11. When You’re Mad At Him It’ll Totally Occupy Your Mind

Never leave a fight unresolved overnight. As they say, you should never go to bed on an argument. It’s better to have one huge argument and clear the air, than to give him the silent treatment and let it go on for days because if you don’t, it’s all you’re going to be thinking about. Countless days ruined.

12. He’ll Make A Great Travel Companion

You know all of those odd little places that you’ve always wanted to visit but never knew who to go with? A boyfriend is the answer to all of your problems. Pick the cheapest flights to the most random place and off you pop, a weekend of adventure awaits you.

13. You Don’t Have To Take Care Of Him

It’s 2014, we are not your mothers. We’re going to sit down now and you can cook us some food. You may as well lay down the law from the very beginning and let him know that you will not be cooking for him. Ever. Put him in his place and all that. Then sit back and stuff yourself with the dinner he has so lovingly prepared. Get back in the kitchen, dear men.

14. There’s A Comfort In Knowing He’s There When You Need Him Most

He'll always be there at the end of that awful, crappy day.

Eight signs your date is not going well

Relationships

Jul 15, 2014

by Amber Saunders

We’ve all been there – when you’ve got your hopes sky high about a hot date only to have them dashed by the end of the evening. How did we get it so wrong?! Here are ten signs that your date is not the Prince Charming you expected.

He’s late
Great! Now you get to sit in the pub or restaurant by yourself, worrying about whether or not he’s going to turn up at all!

He doesn’t offer to buy you a drink
It’s just good manners to offer to buy your date a drink, whether you’re a guy or a girl. If he doesn’t? He’s not worth holding on to.

Something insignificant drives you MAD
His shoes are dirty, his belt is too tight, his shirt is buttoned up too far, the way he laughs, the way he eats, the way he slurps his pint. These are all totally insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but if something like this is already grating on your nerves, how are you going to cope when he does something that’s ACTUALLY annoying?

He talks about his ex-girlfriend
Exes are NOT first date conversation starters. No. Not ever.

The conversation is totes awkward
He could be the loveliest man in the world, but you just have nothing to say to one another. Such a tragedy.

You’re weirded out by him
He seemed TOTALLY normal at 2am last Friday night, but now? He gives you the creeps. Mark it down to experience.

He’s constantly texting
Talk about rude! Is he texting the date he has lined up for tomorrow, or is it his mammy? Either way, it’s not on.

It’s all me, me, me
If all he’s doing is talking about himself, then you can be fairly sure he won’t make a lovely, attentive boyfriend. Next please.
