Paris Hilton reveals plan to launch her own art exhibit

OHMYGOSSIP — Paris Hilton has turned to art in the wake of her split from Chris Zylka.
The 37-year-old TV star recently ended her engagement to the American actor, and Paris is now channelling her focus towards the world of art, revealing she’s planning to soon launch her own exhibit.
She said: “I’m putting my art exhibit [together] now.”
The blonde beauty – who was engaged to Chris, 33, from January till November 2018 – also teased details of her exhibit, admitting to being inspired by “pop culture” and that her work is “really different”.
Speaking to the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column, Paris shared: “My art is very futuristic and pop, with neon lights and crystals and collages and painting. I draw animals. It’s really inspired by pop culture, it’s really different.”
Paris’ latest venture comes shortly after the American heiress revealed she’d previously rejected the chance to star in a reboot of ‘The Simple Life’.
The socialite appeared on the series – which saw her leave her privileged lifestyle to take on a variety of blue-collar jobs – alongside her childhood best friend Nicole Richie from 2003 until 2007, but she refused to appear in a reboot because her schedule was too “insane”.
Paris explained: “They actually approached me to re-do it again but my schedule was so insane that I didn’t have time to do it so I said no, but it would be pretty epic.
“It changed my whole life since it was the first of its kind. There really was nothing out there like it in the world. After that show, I got to go all around the world and it really started my career in this business.”

Hilary Duff says son Luca has already been the best big brother

OHMYGOSSIP — Hilary Duff’s son Luca has already been the best big brother for her daughter Banks Violet.
The 31-year-old star and her boyfriend Matthew Koma welcomed their little girl into the world on October 25 and though it’s like the tot has “always been there”, the former ‘Lizzie McGuire star worried her six-year-old son – who she has with ex-husband Mike Comrie – would feel pushed out, he couldn’t have adjusted better.
She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “Honestly, it’s like she’s always been there. Obviously a newborn needs their mom the most and when I start to feel bad that she consumes most of my time, I look at him and he’s totally fine…
“He’s so loving towards her and is always, like, holding her face and wants to hold her.
“When she starts to cry he’s like, ‘Mom, she’s gonna blow! Get her!’ It’s really sweet. It’s like she’s always been there and he’s just cool.”
Hilary also praised her boyfriend and first time father Matthew for being a “really good dad” while revealing how she adapting to life with a second child.
She added: “Honestly, I feel like I can’t complain about it because people have more than two kids and I’m sitting here like, ‘How do people do this? Oh my gosh!’
“By 5 p.m. at night when it’s like school pick up [time] and [Luca] usually has an after-school activity and I’m like nursing the baby at the after-school activity, and then we’re like running home, and [there’s] homework and dinner and bath time and trying to be fun and continue our regimen.
“And I just have a baby on my boob the entire time. It’s insane and amazing at the same time and you just do it. You just figure out a way to do it. But I don’t know if we call it balance yet. It’s mayhem.”

Ray Quinn tried out for another Hollyoaks role before Jonny success

OHMYGOSSIP — Ray Quinn tried out for another part on ‘Hollyoaks’ before joining the soap as Jonny.
The former ‘Brookside’ actor’s alter-ego will rock up in the village as the new owner of Esther’s Bean coffee shop next week, and he will set about making friends with Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson), who he tries to recruit as a member of his far-right radicalisation group.
He said: “I actually auditioned for a different role originally, then Jonny came along. ‘Hollyoaks’ like to keep things close to their chest.
“I was only told that he was a confident guy and the life of the party, someone you could go for a drink with.
“After I got the role though, and was made aware of what it entailed, I was rather excited by the challenge of the role may bring.”
The 30-year-old actor admits filming the show in Liverpool has felt like “coming home”, after he previously starred as Anthony Murray in former Scouse soap ‘Brookside’.
He said: “I’ve loved every minute at ‘Hollyoaks’ so far!
“For me, it was almost like coming home. It’s been almost 22 years since I started my first ever job there on ‘Brookside’.
“A lot has changed, however a lot has remained the same. Seeing so many friendly and familiar faces made me feel instantly welcomed and helped me to settle in rather quickly.”
Like Jonny and Ste look set to, Ray and Kieron have developed a strong friendship off-screen, and he is grateful his co-star has helped him settle into ‘Hollyoaks’ life.
He added: “Having worked closely with Kieron Richardson for the last few months, he’s become a good friend.
“We have a great relationship, considering the time we’ve known one another. He’s a talented guy and a true gent who has supported me and helped me feel settled into the village with ease.”

Candace Cameron Bure injured in go-kart accident

OHMYGOSSIP — Candace Cameron Bure was taken to hospital after being “ran over” by her brother.
The ‘Fuller House’ actress had been go-karting with her siblings on Thursday (06.12.18) but their fun day out was cut short by a trip to the emergency room following an accident that left the 42-year-old star in pain and covered in cuts and bruises.
She said on Instagram: “Our fun family day ended in a trip to the emergency room. Go into a go-karting accident when my brother ran me over. I’m waiting to see if I broke my hand or fractured it or what.”
Thankfully, Candace later revealed she had no broken bones.
She revealed on her Instagram story: “Went go-karting with my brother and two sisters. I’ve been released now, but was in the ER.
“I think I bruised my shoulder too but I can’t tell because I haven’t taken my shirt off. They got my rings off and that was one of the most painful things I’ve ever experienced.
“Clearly I am fine… but got some damage to my hand, but it’s not broken, and my shoulder, but it’s not broken…
“OK I have nothing broken, we got the X rays back and I’m fine, I’m just really bruised, which is amazing to me. My hand is pretty bad and ugly. I’m honestly shocked there’s nothing broken.”
Candace also shared two photos of her swollen and bruised hand, before returning to video with a clip in which her brother, Kirk Cameron, took responsibility for her injuries.
The former ‘Growing Pains’ star said: “I’m the culprit. I’m the crazy driver. It was my fault completely. I tried to cut her off and take the lead.”
After she returned home, the ‘Make It Or Break It’ actress – who has three children with husband Valeri Bure – admitted the adrenalin had worn off and she was feeling very uncomfortable.
She said: “[That] was one of the most painful things I’ve ever experienced.
“I look pretty happy in those videos but the pain has set in now. And I’m a little loopy from the drugs.”
Candace finished documenting her day by showing off her bent wedding and engagement rings – which she said she was “grateful” hadn’t been cut off – and a gleeful message.
She quipped: “And, as if you even need to ask…I WON.”

Danny Dyer signs new BBC deal

OHMYGOSSIP — Danny Dyer has signed a “golden handcuffs” deal with the BBC.
The ‘EastEnders’ actor has signed a new £1 million contract which bans him from starring in programmes on rival channels but means he’ll be branching out and appearing on a number of different shows on the broadcaster.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “Bosses think they’ve struck gold with Danny and are keen to keep him with the BBC for as long as possible.
“The deal will help them achieve that and means they can use him on a host of shows. They’ve already announced a few projects and are dreaming up more.”
The new deal signed by the 41-year-old actor – who will return to ‘EastEnders’ later this month – means his role in daughter Dani Dyer’s upcoming ITVBe reality show will be limited.
However, he has plenty of other projects in the pipeline and will host ‘Have I Got News For You?’ on Friday (07.12.18) night and is also to be the subject of a new programme about his royal roots after learning he is related to Edward III when he appeared on genealogy show ‘Who Do You Think You Are?’ in 2016.
He recently said of ‘Danny Dyer’s Right Royal Family’: “I’m still in shock at the fact that I’m related to such important people. I’ve had a ball getting to know them. It was a nutty experience.”
In the show, Danny will head back 800 years in time to live how some of his ancestors did, which will include him eating sheep’s tongue, and learning how to hunt.
After discovering his royal connections, the ‘Football Factory’ star joked he would challenge Queen Elizabeth to become Head of State.
He said: “If I iron out about 150 people, yeah I’ll be f***ing King. If Trump can run America I can be f***ing king surely?”
During Danny’s ‘Who Do You Think You Are?’ episode, researchers also discovered he had a blood link to Thomas Cromwell, who was King Henry VIII’s chief minister – much to the star’s delight.
Speaking previously about the connection, he said: “He came from a slum, I come from a slum.
“Cromwell left the country at 14, I started acting at 14.
“He was a self-taught lawyer. I’m a self-taught actor.
“Cromwell had two daughters and a son. I’ve got two daughters and a son.
“Cromwell wrote his last letter to Henry VIII begging for his life, on July 24, which is my birthday.”

Lea Seydoux returning for Bond 25

OHMYGOSSIP — Lea Seydoux is to return for ‘Bond 25’.
The 33-year-old actress portrayed Bond girl Dr Madeleine Swann in 2015 movie ‘Spectre’, and she looks set to reprise her role after support from Daniel Craig – who is to play the suave spy for a fifth time in the forthcoming film – and director Cary Joji Fukunaga.
Fukunaga – who will be helming his first Bond movie – told the Daily Mail newspaper: “Lea will be returning.”
Franchise regulars Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw and Naomie Harris are also set to return for the as-yet untitled 25th movie in the series.
Speaking about the British trio, the director added: “You have some of the best actors in the world here.
“Why wouldn’t I have the best coming back?”
In ‘Spectre’, Seydoux’s psychologist alter-ego Swann got hot and steamy with Bond in the freezing Austrian Alps.
She is the daughter of Mr. White – played by Jesper Christensen – and helped the spy identify the criminal and terrorist organisation SPECTRE.
Fukunaga was named as the hotly-anticipated movie’s new director in September, after Danny Boyle walked away from the project over “creative differences”.
Producers Michael Wilson and Barbara Broccoli said at the time: “We are delighted to be working with Cary.
“His versatility and innovation make him an excellent choice for our next James Bond adventure.”
Boyle’s decision to depart the project was announced on the movie’s official Twitter page in August.
The post read: “Michael G Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and Daniel Craig today announced that due to creative differences Danny Boyle has decided to no longer direct Bond 25 (sic)”
‘Bond 25’ is scheduled to be released on February 14, 2020.

Timothee Chalamet signs up for French Dispatch

OHMYGOSSIP — Timothée Chalamet is to star in ‘The French Dispatch’.
The ‘Call Me By Your Name’ actor has signed up for one of the lead roles in Wes Anderson’s next live action feature, along with Benicio del Toro, Jeffrey Wright and the director’s frequent collaborators Bill Murray, TIlda Swinton and Frances McDormand.
West is writing the film as well as directing, whild Scott Rudin is on board to produce.
The movie is set in the 1950s and follows a group of journalists at an American newspaper bureau in Paris, though filming is currently taking place in Angouleme in South West France.
It’s unclear if a distribution deal is officially closed but according to the Hollywood Reporter, the movie is expected to be distributed by Fox Searchlight, who have released several of the director’s past films, including his most recent work, ‘Isle of Dogs’.
Timothée can next be seen in ‘Beautiful Boy’ – in which he plays journalist and drug addict Nic Sheff opposite Steve Carell as his father – and the 22-year-old star recently hailed the movie as “extremely important” and wants as many young people as possible to see it.
He said: “I feel the pressure of wanting to get ‘Beautiful Boy’ out there. It’s extremely important, not only for people all across America, but also for people my age.
“We’re going through this, and inherent to that is the difficulty of discussing something that is really upsetting and devastating to a lot of families.
“But I think that’s the importance of art and movies.”
Timothée turned to YouTube for footage of drug addiction and also met with other addicts as part of his research for the role, but quickly released he needed to ignore “stereotypes” to be convincing.
He said: “Oh wait, addiction doesn’t have a face. This isn’t a bridge I have to cross to understand playing this. This is a human illness. Don’t play the stereotype of a drug addict. Play a human who’s addicted to drugs.”

Ace Frehley hoping to get KISS call

OHMYGOSSIP — Ace Frehley is holding out hope he might receive an “emergency phone call” asking him to be part of KISS’s farewell tour.
The 67-year-old rocker – who was a co-founding member of the legendary band and their original lead guitarist – is yet to be asked to take part in the group’s ‘End of the Road World Tour’ next year, but he has built a clause into his contract that would allow him to get out of prior commitments if he was asked to join the ‘I Love It Loud’ hitmakers next summer.
He said: “There’s always a chance I might get that emergency phone call.
“I told my agent to build into my contract, in the event I do get an emergency phone call and KISS wants me to join the tour and take over for Tommy [Thayer], that I can get out of the dates that I have booked for the summer.
“So we’ll see what happens. You know me – I’m the kind of guy that says, ‘Never say never.’
“But at this juncture, I have no plans on performing on the upcoming KISS tour, and I haven’t gotten any phone calls or had any correspondence. So that’s where it stands at this juncture.”
Ace looks set to tour with Alice Cooper over the summer, with plans in place for a five-week run of gigs over July and August, following some solo shows earlier in the year.
Speaking on SiriusXM’s ‘Trunk Nation’, he added: “I have two shows coming up in January on the West Coast.
“We’re doing Seattle, Sacramento, and they might even add some shows and bring us all the way down to San Diego.
“And then I think might be doing some dates with Alice Cooper in the summer. My guys get along with their guys, and I’ve known Alice forever. So that’s always gonna be a lot of fun.
“I think they’re talking about July and August – it’ll be five weeks. So that can be a really special thing.”
In September, Ace – who hasn’t toured with KISS since 2000 – admitted he was hopeful the band would ask him to be a part of their final tour.
He said: “Hopefully next year, what all the KISS fans really want to happen will happen. I’m hoping. I want to be involved, especially for the fans.
“It’s not like my dream job, because I’ve done it a couple of times and quit, but I really want to do it for the fans if it’s going to happen.”
KISS are currently made up of original members Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, as well as Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer.

Cyndi Lauper wants women to stick together

OHMYGOSSIP — Cyndi Lauper has urged women in music to “stick together”.
The ‘Time After Time’ hitmaker was honoured with the Icon of the Year Award at Billboard’s 2018 Women in Music event in New York City on Thursday (06.12.18) and reflected on how record labels used to sign “quotas” of female acts but praised the power of “sisterhood” and how much stronger women are when they promote one another.
She said: “When I was starting they had quotas of women they would sign. I actually did a showcase and the guy said to me, ‘well, we got Debbie, Patti — we got our quota of women.’ That’s where it was.
“I guess it’s kind of still like that, but you [honorees] are kicking down doors and that is awesome. I strongly believed my whole life that sisterhood is a powerful thing…
“We need to share our stories and stick together and promote each other. I stand on the shoulder of women who came before me, as you guys are standing on mine and others will come and stand on yours…
“To all the women, please remember — we shouldn’t be against each other, we should help each other.”
The 65-year-old singer had accepted the award from Dua Lipa and told the ‘New Rules’ hitmaker she’d be “standing here one day” before admitting she didn’t know what it was like to be an icon.
She said: “I always get asked, ‘What does it feel like to be an icon?’ I didn’t know how to answer that. See now? I can hand them this and say, ‘Here, hold this.’ ”
Elsewhere at the event – where the likes of Ariana Grande and Janelle Monae were also honoured – Kacey Musgraves was given the Innovator Award and felt she’d been presented with the accolade because she isn’t afraid to take risks.
She said: “This is crazy — I mean, women are f***ing awesome.
“I feel really hopeful and proud about the state of the modern woman. Her bravery, her unapologetic celebration of rights. Her life, her mind, and her art. And definitely most of all, her realness. And I’ve been craving realness for so long.”
“[Innovator], that’s a heavy word. Innovator to me means having the courage to take risks, knowing that it could completely fail, and doing it anyway. I mean, what’s the point of any of this if you’re not able to be who you are?”
Billboard Women in Music 2018 honourees:

Vick Hope to voice Shipwrecked reboot

OHMYGOSSIP — Vick Hope is “chuffed” to be voicing the new series of ‘Shipwrecked’.
The 29-year-old radio presenter can’t wait to lend her vocal talents to E4’s reboot of the reality TV series, which is returning to TV screens after a seven-year break.
The ‘Capital Breakfast Show’ host is quoted by The Sun’s Bizarre TV column as saying: “I’m chuffed to be voicing the all new series of ‘Shipwrecked’.
“There are some amazing characters, epic bombshells and lovely waves of nostalgia ahead.”
The show – which was initially narrated by Andrew Lincoln, and then former ‘Coronation Street’ actor Craig Kelly in later series – saw contestants aged between 18 and 24 cast away on a tropical island and left to build their own version of paradise.
‘Shipwrecked’ was one of the earliest reality TV series, launching the same year as the UK version of ‘Big Brother’ back in 2000.
It ran for three series until 2001, before returning in 2006 as ‘Shipwrecked: Battle Of The Islands’, which saw the contestants divided into two groups to compete for a cash prize of up to £100,000.
In total, the show ran for eight series with the last season running on E4 in 2012.
Past contestants include TV presenters Jeff Brazier and Sarah-Jane Crawford, as well as ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ winner Stephen Bear.
Inspired by the success of ITV’s ‘Love Island’, Channel 4 is now planning to bring ‘Shipwrecked’ back to screens in 2019.
A source previously said: “Lots of people have fond memories of watching ‘Shipwrecked’ in their youth and dreaming about joining the fun in paradise.
“Now Channel 4 have decided to give millennials the same experience, after ‘Love Island’ proved sun-kissed hunks and beauties frolicking in a tropical setting can result in huge ratings.”
Filming will take place on the South Pacific’s Cook Islands where campmates are split into two tribes to battle it out for a £50,000 prize.

David Beckham stole wife’s beauty products

OHMYGOSSIP — David Beckham used to “steal” his wife Victoria’s beauty products.
The 43-year-old retired footballer – who has sons Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 16, and Cruz, 13, and seven-year-old daughter Harper with the former Spice Girls singer – has always been aware he needed to look after his skin because he spent so much time outside but didn’t have the knowledge to select the right lotions and creams, so simply took to using the same items as his fashion designer spouse.
He said: “My approach to grooming was always to steal my wife’s products. That was kind of it, really. I’d always been aware of how I wanted my hair to look, stuff like that, but I was also in a career where I was always outside–whether I was living in Manchester, living in Madrid, LA…all these different places with different weather.
“I had to take care of my skin because of that, but the way I looked after it was to steal my wife’s stuff, because I know she has the best. ”
But David – who has created his own grooming line with L’Oreal, House 99 – takes a lot more care these days and thinks it’s a “more acceptable” topic for guys to discuss now.
He added in an interview with Into the Gloss: “I never used to use face wash, apart from using my wife’s products. I never used to make the time to do that. Now I have a face wash, I have a mask, a scrub.
“And it’s so much more acceptable – guys find it much more natural to talk about their products that they use, and what they do to look after their skin and their hair, and the way they want to look. I’m very excited about that.”
David taught his two older sons how to shave and is looking forward to doing the same when the time comes for Cruz.
He said: “The first time my son Romeo shaved, I shaved him -he literally had a fluff on his face, but he was quite excited about his dad shaving him. Brooklyn, the same. I’m sure I’ll have to do the same to Cruz.”
When it comes to his own facial fuzz, the star has never been clean shaven since his eldest son was young because it terrified the tot.
He said: “As far as I can remember, I’ve always had some kind of stubble. I’ve worked out that I look better with some stubble than without.
“I think the last time I razor shaved was about 15 years ago – my son Brooklyn was four years old, and I razor shaved when we were in the south of France on holiday.
“I came out the bathroom, and he literally burst into tears because I shaved my moustache and my goatee. So since then, I don’t think I’ve shaved.”

Amber Heard: Hollywood isn’t progressive

OHMYGOSSIP — Amber Heard doesn’t think Hollywood is progressive.
The ‘Aquaman’ actress doesn’t understand why the movie industry is “held up” as a model of forward-thinking when it takes a long time to make any changes and is “deeply risk-averse”.
She said: “Hollywood is the slowest to change. It’s ironically held up as some bastion of progressive ideals, and yet the reality is the exact opposite.
“It’s deeply risk-averse and reliant on maintaining the status quo.”
In between stints promoting ‘Aquaman’, Amber spent a lot of time working on the border helping to get aid to Mexican immigrants.
She told the Hollywood Reporter: “I was working behind the scenes with some of the people giving humanitarian aid to the caravan and went to Mexico City when [the migrants] first started to arrive.
“I got in contact with the heads of certain nonprofits. I prefer not to say which ones out of concern for their safety, as this has become extremely volatile and political.”
The 32-year-old actress also found the time to fly to Jordan to work with Syrian American Medical Society, and though she values both her career and her humanitarian efforts, she admitted it can be hard never being among familiar faces.
She said: “When you travel and spend so much time on the road and in such a nonconsistent, go-go-go way, one country this day, shooting a movie or in a refugee camp and you’re doing all these things and going everywhere, you can find yourself sometimes at the end of a month realising that, while you’re never actually alone, you’ve just gone a month without being around a single person who knows you.”
Amber was previously married to Johnny Depp and when they divorced amid accusations he had been abusive, she donated her entire $7 million settlement to the ACLU and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
However, though she feels she did what was “right”, she doesn’t want to talk about her ex-husband.
She said: “I’m not going to talk about Johnny. I’m more interested in talking about the work I’m doing and the things I feel proud of. I stood up for myself, for what was right.”

Jennifer Hudson’s custody battle to go to trial

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga’s custody battle is heading to court.
The ‘Voice’ coach has been locked in a bitter dispute with her former fiance over the care of their nine-year-old son David Jr. and now they will face one another in court for a five-day trial starting on the March 11 in order to resolve the questions of who should have a greater share of custody of the youngster and who should pay support.
According to The Blast, things are so bitter between the former couple, they have even been fighting over the choice of school bus stops.
Last year, Jennifer filed for an emergency order of protection after accusing the WWE commentator of pushing her while holding David, and though it was granted by the court, the 37-year-old singer later dropped the petition altogether.
Both David – who denied pushing his former partner – and the ‘Dreamgirls’ star have filed a number of motions against each other, accusing one another of playing legal games.
At one point, Jennifer said she was worried David would kidnap their son, while he accused her of trying to defame him.
He argued she had made creative negative press about him her priority, rather than protecting their only child.
In court documents, David claimed Jennifer issued an exclusive statement to People about their split, saying her actions were “solely taken in the best interest of their son”, at the same time he was being served with an emergency order of protection.
He alleged the statement damaged his reputation and at the time it was released, he was being forcibly removed from their home in front of their son, and Jennifer wasn’t even there.
A court order is in place prohibiting the former couple from disseminating photos or making comments about their son, but the wrestling star previously claimed the ‘Spotlight’ singer had violated the order by giving an interview to an entertainment news show, which showed various photos of David Jr., and mentioned him by name throughout.

Matthew McConaughey’s mom still has movie dream

OHMYGOSSIP — Matthew McConaughey’s 86-year-old mother is desperate to be a film star.
The 49-year-old actor’s mom Kay visited him on the set of his latest movie ‘White Boy Rick’ and though she says she likes to see him at work, he believes she has ulterior motives and is still trying to get spotted to get her own big break – and has a bizarre dream project that would see her play her son’s older lover.
He said: “She says it’s because she wants to see me, but I always say, ‘If I was an accountant in Chicago would you want to see me as often!’ She just wants to get into the movies and she is persistent.
“She is 86 and her pitch is always to re-make ‘The Graduate’, with her as the Anne Bancroft character and me as Dustin Hoffman’s character. She thinks it would work and is no big deal. There’s Freudian stuff in there!”
Matthew – who has children Levi, 10, Vida, eight, and five-year-old Livingston with wife Camila Alves – plays the father of an undercover police informant in ‘White Boy Rick’ and described the film as his “sad country song”.
He told talk show host Graham Norton: “This role is my sad country song. The character has bad luck on top of bad luck.”
The Oscar-winning star also admitted he isn’t entirely sure of the “truth” surrounding the story that he turned down the part of Jack Dawson in ‘Titanic’ before Leonardo DiCaprio was cast because he insisted he was never offered the role.
Asked about the casting story, he said: “I don’t know the real truth. I heard that James Cameron told people I had the part but that I turned it down. I did read with Kate [Winslet] but I was never offered the part. If I was, I’d like to talk to my agent about it!”
The full interview with Matthew will air on ‘The Graham Norton Show’ on BBC One on Friday (07.12.18).

EastEnders’ Kat Moon to have world ‘shattered into pieces’ on Christmas Day

OHMYGOSSIP — EastEnders’ Kat Moon will see her world “shattered into pieces” when she discovers husband Alfie Moon is the father of her cousin Hayley Slater’s baby.
The no-nonsense Walford resident – played by Jessie Wallace – will be left furious over the festive period when she finds out on Christmas Day that happy-go-lucky Alfie (Shane Richie) has fathered a child with Hayley (Katie Jarvis), and there will be unexpected consequences as a result.
The truth about Alfie and Hayley is set to be revealed in “catastrophic style”, which will put paid to his plans to give Kat a “perfect Christmas”.
He finally returned to Albert Square last week and was shocked to discover that Hayley had kept their baby, after he had previously handed her money to get an abortion.
As well as this, ‘EastEnders’ are set to revisit Kat’s horrific abuse past, with Eric Richard set to return as former cabbie Maurice later this month.
The former ‘The Bill’ actor made his debut on the soap last week when Maurice told Kat that her late father Charlie Slater (Derek Martin) may have known about the sexual abuse she suffered from her evil Uncle Harry.
The news came as a huge shock to Kat, and resulted in her losing concentration and running over an elderly guy on her moped on the way home.
Kat will later clap eyes on the OAP she ran over in Walford, and in a moment of panic she reveals all to Alfie, who sets about trying to help her.
In an attempt to put things right he invites Maurice over to the Slater household, but Kat is left shocked when she finds the former taxi driver in her home.

OHMYGOSSIP — Asan N’Jie has called for Adam Thomas to return to ‘Emmerdale’.
The Dales newcomer – who plays Ellis Grant on the ITV soap – is keen to work alongside the actor on the show after a number of his co-stars told him he is “so alike” to the 30-year-old actor in real-life.
He told Inside Soap magazine: “I would love to work with Adam Thomas, who played Adam Barton.
“I know that sounds random, but so many people have said that me and Adam are so alike in real life – it’s one of those where I want him to just slot back in so that we can have lots of scenes together.”
Asan is not the only current Dales star who would like Adam to reprise his role as his namesake on the show.
Natalie J. Robb – who plays his on-screen mum Moira Dingle – recently admitted she would love to see the character return to the soap to “put a spanner in the works”, following the arrival of Matty Barton (Ash Palmisciano), who was previously known as Moira’s daughter Hannah Barton (Grace Cassidy).
The former ‘Dream Team’ actress is still friends with Adam following his ‘Emmerdale’ exit, but admitted his return to the soap doesn’t look likely anytime soon after he and wife Caroline Thomas welcomed a daughter, Elsie-Rose, into the world in May.
She added: “What would the show be without spanners? I love Adam to bits, but we’re always in touch, we always make sure he’s OK, but he’s just had another little girl so I think his priorities are somewhere else at the moment.”
Adam recently revealed he was inspired to quit ‘Emmerdale’ following a chat with his ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ co-star Larry Lamb.
He said: “I remember him giving me some advice, saying, ‘You should just get out there, and try other things and take the jump.’
“And the first meeting I had with my boss when I get back to work was, ‘Listen, I’m done now. I’ve made up my mind.’
“And if I hadn’t done it then, then I wouldn’t have done it.”
