OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Love Island’ bosses are reportedly planning an autumn spin-off show.
The dating programme has proved such a hit with fans this time around – beating Channel 5’s ‘Big Brother’ in the viewings war – that producers are hoping to do another series later this year based on the couples whether have managed to stay together.
A source told The Sun Online: “Some relationships will be nothing more than a summer holiday romance but there’s some that are going to last a lot longer.
“Each of the couples have already been pushed to the limits in a very false environment and once they’re back home, they will have more time to themselves away from the camera. There are already discussions behind the scenes as to doing a follow-up series later this year where viewers can see if islanders have stayed together at home – and whether they’re following in the footsteps of last year’s couples like Olivia Buckland and Alex Bowen.
“It’s a no brainer for Love Island bosses to do a follow-up as the show has been a runaway success and everyone’s desperate to see more of their favourite couples.”
This isn’t the only spin-off the show is getting either as there will also be ‘Love Island Heading Home’, a one-off special episode at the end of the series that sees the couples leave the idyllic island of Mallorca, Spain, and head back to the UK for a reunion with their families.
And, although the show isn’t over yet, recently-eliminated contestant Sam Gowland has revealed that the islanders will be reuniting on August 2 for Marcel Somerville’s birthday.
He said: “We’ve already made a plan to all go out on Marcel’s birthday which is August 2. We’re all going to the pub during the day and having a bit of a pub crawl and then having a night out in Newcastle. Every single person that was ever on Love Island is invited. I have no enemies from the show whatsoever.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Katie Price has joked that Love Island’s Chris Hughes will be her “next husband.”
The 39-year-old former glamour model is currently married to Kieran Hayler, with whom she has children Jett, three, and Bunny, two, but feels like she’s going through a “mid-life crisis because she can’t stop ogling other men and has her eye on the TV hunk.
Speaking on ‘Loose Women’ on Thursday (20.07.17), she said: “I’m in love with Kieran and he’s perfect. I’m just looking at everything at the minute. Chris on ‘Love Island’ is going to be my next husband. Kieran laughs it off but I’m like ‘I don’t know why you’re laughing Kieran he’s going to be good with the sheep. I don’t know if it’s because I want attention. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I don’t care I’m turning 40 next year. I have no problem with that. It’s like, ‘will I be able to pull again?’ Not that I want to.”
Meanwhile, Chris has been a firm fan favourite since he joined the ‘Love Island’ villa last month and, although he had no problem crying on screen when his now-girlfriend Olivia Attwood called off their romance, viewers were shocked in last night’s (19.07.17) episode when the heartthrob struck up a bond with a plastic doll named Cash.
The 22-year-old star said: “I think this morning he has already brought out an emotional side in me. With Olivia, we have stopped the mishaps we’ve had together and we’ve got to focus on the baby now, because ultimately he is our main responsibility.”
However, Olivia didn’t enjoy the task as much of Chris and admitted four hours was enough for her to realise that she’s not ready to have children at this moment in time.
She added: “I have been a mum for a whole four hours and I’m done with it.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Love Island’s Gabby Allen has been accused of “constantly bitching” about her boyfriend Marcel Somerville behind his back.
The blonde beauty and the former Blazing Squad star seemed to be the perfect couple after they struck up a relationship just days after they entered the famous abode last month, but it looks like things are set to come crumbling down any day now as Gabby has been accused of using the hunk for his popularity on the outside world.
Sam Gowland – who was dumped from the villa this week – said: “Gabby is playing on the fact that she knows Marcel is well liked. She watched the show before going in and knows that the public are on his side. It’s the way she acts around him. Marcel will be talking when we’re all at dinner and she’s sat there pulling faces behind his back – she can be really bitchy towards him so I find her all a bit fake really.”
Georgia Harrison – who left with her beau Sam – added to the Sun Online: “She has been caught out with Marcel and the girls – if you can be two-faced like that towards the girls then you can’t trust that she’s sincere about her feelings towards Marcel.”
Gabby started to raise eyebrows last week when she said she didn’t love Marcel as part of a group task and the lie detector machine confirmed she was telling the truth.
When the pair spoke about the lie detector later on in the show, she fumed: “You’re so stupid, because you’re making some point of nothing, you’re ridiculous.”
He replied: “We were having a conversation, I was midway through a sentence about something and I wasn’t a priority to you at that current point.”
To which she hit back: “Sorry if you were midway through a sentence. You know when you’re at the dinner table and you ask if you can be excused, that’s how it made me feel. It’s made me feel like I have to ask if I can leave.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Hollyoaks’ Mandy Richardson and Luke Morgan will make their return as a couple.
The loveable pair weren’t together when Sarah Jayne Dunn – who portrays the blonde bombshell – left the soap six years ago, but she has revealed fans will be in for a shock when she and her former flame (played by Gary Lucy) head back to Chester.
Speaking on ‘This Morning’ on Thursday (20.07.17), Sarah said: “I didn’t know Gary was coming back. I got my script and one of my first scenes was Mandy and Luke and I was like: ‘No way is this Luke!’ So I texted Gary straight away and said: ‘Oh my God you’re going back. This is so exciting.’ So the two of us back together.
“They are back together. I can tell you that much. They’re a couple. Mandy and Luke return together. Six years is a long time – Gary has been away from the show even longer – so there’s a lot of story telling to do.”
However, although bosses are keen to have the Mandy back fans “know and love”, the 35-year-old actress has admitted her alter-ego has fallen on harder times.
She explained: “She’s fallen on harder times – she’s going through a tough time … She’s a headstrong character and what’s really nice about this return is that we really want to go back to Mandy – the Mandy we all know and love. We need to find that.”
Sarah has done numerous things since she walked away from the show over half a decade ago, but she “jumped” at the chance to reprise her role when she was contacted by the producer Bryan Kirkwood earlier this year.
She said: “A split second, I jumped at the chance. Bryan Kirkwood was back at the helm – our producer – and he’s so passionate about the show and when they talked to me about the storylines they’ve got planned for Mandy, I just couldn’t not go back.
Sarah and Gary – who quit the programme 15 years ago – will be back on screen as Mandy and Luke, who were teenager lovers, from next week.
She added: “Back on screen next Monday. It’s really nice to have a character that’s so full and that’s been through so much.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Coronation Street’ will reignite its rivalry with ‘EastEnders’ by ripping off one of its most famous lines.
The ITV soap is set to feature new Rovers Return landlord Peter Barlow saying “Get out of my pub” – a phrase made famous by Queen Vic landlady Peggy Mitchell (Dame Barbara Windsor) in the the BBC programme – during an upcoming scene with Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson).
An insider told The Sun newspaper: “‘Corrie’ has cheekily made the line its own by giving it northern welly.
“It sounds quite different because of the Manchester accent but it will ring a bell with fans … and will definitely ruffle feathers in the Beeb script-writing room.”
Peter, a recovering alcoholic played by actor Chris Gascoyne, is currently living out his long-held ambition of running a pub.
But soap boss Kate Oates has promised that the storyline won’t be conventional.
She said: “I don’t want to play out another alcoholic storyline with Peter so our challenge is to find a way of exploring his faults in different ways.”
Meanwhile, it was recently reported that new ‘EastEnders’ boss John Yorke has lifted a ban on the show’s cast appearing in pantomimes.
Historically, soap stars have turned to money-spinning productions as a means of boosting their earnings and John has apparently decided to lift the ban on the ‘EastEnders’ cast accepting such roles in a bid to improve the mood on set.
A source said: “John has made it his mission to meet with disgruntled stars and find out what has gone wrong. He had a mountain to climb with some of them – but he’s really had an effect and people are already much happier.
“His aim was to get some of the big names back onside and secure their futures – and his plan is working.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Sinitta is approached for ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ every single year – but bosses swiftly retract their offer when they hear her “ridiculous” demands.
The ‘So Macho’ hitmaker has admitted she’s asked to enter the famous abode every time bosses put the line-up together but, although they’re put off by her terms and conditions, she’s adamant they’ll come round to her way of thinking sometime soon.
Speaking on ‘Lorraine’ on Thursday (20.07.17), she said: ” Well they said my demands were ridiculous – I said they were reasonable.
“We’ve been talking for years and we’ll go on talking. I’m going to live for a few more years and I think they’ll come around to my way of thinking.”
However, the 53-year-old singer certainly has her hands full this year as she’s confident that her friend Simon Cowell will ask her to help him with the Judges’ Houses round of the forthcoming series of ‘The X Factor’ after he replaced her with Mel B last year.
She explained: “Remember Simon last year invited me back live on air? So you know we’ve got that, we’ve got that recorded.
“But I did read recently that he offered Cheryl Tweedy £500,000 to come back to do Judges’ Houses. Rude, just rude. I mean I don’t know – hopefully he’s just being funny.”
And, although she thinks the 57-year-old music mogul – who has three-year-old son Eric with his girlfriend Lauren Silverman – is “sexy”, she’s doesn’t fancy him.
She said: “They said, ‘do I still think he is attractive now that he has sort of become more cosy and softer’ and I said, ‘he is still a very handsome, sexy man’. Does that mean I still fancy him? … Because I know he is not really that scary but obviously he can be to people he doesn’t know but I’m kind of like sister/mother/daughter. We’ve got a very strange relationship but it is an honest one.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Love Island’s Montana Brown and Alex Beattie have the “noisiest sex” in the villa.
The couple – who struck up a relationship just days after entering the famous shack last month – have been keeping their fellow housemates awake at night because the brunette beauty can’t help but shriek when the hunk is performing oral on her.
Dumped housemate Georgia Harrison – who was evicted alongside Sam Gowland – told The Sun Online: “Alex and Montana [have the noisiest sex].”
Sam added: “Yeah, I’ll tell you what, I need some tips off Alex because he goes for an hour, I’ve never heard anyone go on for so long.”
Georgia explained: “It’s because he spends loads of time downstairs!”
And, although some housemates have been slotting ear plugs in at night to block out the moans and groans, Georgia and Sam aren’t bothered by the sex sounds.
Georgia said when asked if the late-night antics annoy her: “No, you get used to it. “I’m gonna miss it! It’s like when you fall asleep with the telly on.”
The news will no doubt shock Montana’s mother Sarah as she admitted last week that she was surprised by her daughter’s behaviour and claimed it wasn’t the “real her.”
She said: “She has a lot of integrity and high standards. Usually Montana is laid back when she meets somebody and will take her time and obviously she hasn’t.
“It has been an interesting version of Montana which isn’t really her. When she likes somebody, she likes them, but wouldn’t normally go head-first in. Everything seems to be fast-tracked. The thing with Alex has been an interesting twist and not necessarily what she would normally be like. I presume being in a pressurised environment means the reality is different. She is normally really private. I think it must be quite choreographed and I know they are directed, so what you see is not always the reality.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Vicky Pattison is planning to get married around her grandparents’ wedding anniversary next year.
The ‘Geordie Shore’ star only got engaged to her beau John Noble this month, but they’ve wasted no time cracking on with the preparations as they’ve decided they want to get hitched next July when her elderly relatives Mavis and David Birdsey celebrate their 66th marital year together.
Speaking to the Chronicle Live, Mavis let slip that her other granddaughter Louise is tying the knot this weekend and planned for it to fall around their 65th anniversary – and she’s thrilled Vicky is doing the same.
She explained to the publication: “I can’t believe we’ve been married for 65 years already. We’re also so excited for Vicky’s wedding. It’s just lovely.”
And the couple believe the secret to a long and successful marriage is “give and take” and not to “squabble” over little things because life is too short for “silly” disagreements.
Mavis said: “It’s about give and take. There’s never been a boss between us. We always tend to agree on everything but if we don’t, we talk through it. I don’t believe anyone who has been married for 65 years who says they’ve never had a row. I say they’re either a liar or not normal. My advice to Vicky would be not to squabble over the little silly things. Life is just too short.”
Vicky announced her engagement earlier this week and admitted she burst into tears when her partner got down on one knee because she was convinced he was going to break up with her.
The 29-year-old beauty said: “I was spending a few days at John’s house, which is just outside Newcastle and surrounded by lovely countryside. One morning he suggested we take his dog Roxie out for a walk. After a while we stopped for a sit down on a bench overlooking some lovely scenery. I was playing with Roxie when she shook her head and got slobber all over my face. When I wiped it away, John was in front of me on one knee. I couldn’t believe it, I burst into tears. I said yes and then I looked at the ring and I was blown away, it was amazing … In the days leading up to the proposal I was convinced that he was about to break up with me! We’d had a difficult few weeks because I had been really busy with work and couldn’t make it to see him.
!I was hoping he would come to see me [in Essex] but he kept saying he had too much on. It was so out of character for him that I started panicking, thinking he was going to finish things with me. I was crying to all my friends all the time and arguing with him on the phone because I was so sure he didn’t want to be with me anymore.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Love Island’ star Olivia Attwood has been called a “lazy, spoilt brat” by her ex-boyfriend.
Ricky Foster has slammed the reality TV star and insisted she “lived off” him during their six-year relationship which ended in 2014.
He raged to The Mirror: “She was a pain. Lazy, spoilt brat. She lived off me for all the years we were living together. She didn’t want to do much.
“I paid the mortgage and the bills. She didn’t do a lot – I used to cook, clean, hoover, walk the dog and go to work. She lived quite a life with me.”
The roofer also revealed he needed therapy six months after their relationship ended and he cried over Olivia and thought he was having a “mental breakdown”.
He continued: “I did see a therapist and they said ‘I don’t think it’s you’. It was about six/seven months after. I was pretty distraught to even be there so I was pretty upset and crying a bit.”
Olivia is unable to defend herself because she’s still holed up in the luxury ‘Love Island’ villa and is trying to make her relationship with her on-screen boyfriend Chris Hughes work.
However, their romance hit a rocky patch when she joked that she’d sleep with Mike if Chris didn’t have to find out about it.
Though she claimed the couple were on a break when she made the flirty remark, Chris was unsurprisingly not happy with her excuse.
Heading into the Beach Hut, he said: “She is such a melt, that’s so muggy. Prior to that being read out, she’d lost her head that I laughed at a tweet … I have every right to be annoyed at that.”
Meanwhile, Mike has been handed a second chance in the villa and has admitted he plans to exact his revenge against the busty blonde, whose romance with Chris blossomed after Mike left the show.
He said: “Olivia says she’s single but think I’ll be a mug to believe it. I might feed her a bit of s**t! Revenge is sweet.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Jonny Mitchell turned down ‘Love Island’ twice before he agreed to join the show.
The 26-year-old hunk is adamant, despite speculation, he didn’t sign up to the reality TV series in order to boost his profile as bosses had asked him to take part in the past and he rejected their offer because he had no desire to be in the limelight.
He said: “If you speak to production, you’ll know I turned down ‘Love Island’ twice before. I went in with an open mind and didn’t know what to expect.”
Although the hunk won over a huge amount of female fans when he first entered the villa, he soon developed a bad reputation after he dumped Camilla Thurlow – who was seen as the public’s sweetheart – in order to strike up a relationship with Tyla Carr.
But, despite the backlash, Jonny is adamant he doesn’t regret anything he did as he believe he was “diplomatic” when it came to cooling things off with Camilla.
He explained: “I think I handled things quite diplomatically with Camilla and Tyla. Camilla was fully in the picture about me moving on with Tyla and she was very supportive. She played a massive part in the romance as she convinced me to keep Tyla in over Simon Searles.”
Just before Johnny was evicted from the villa, he looked set to walk but he’s adamant he never would have quit and was merely going through an emotional roller coaster.
He added to new! magazine: “I think everyone has their ups and downs in there. Everyone has had a wobble where they think about leaving but I got over it.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kris Marshall is being lined up to play Jodie Whittaker’s assistant in ‘Doctor Who’.
The 44-year-old actor was hot odds-on favourite to replace Peter Capaldi as the new titular Time Lord, but the ‘Broadchurch’ star was cast as the time-travelling alien on Sunday (16.07.17), leaving the ‘Death in Paradise’ star available to appear as the iconic character’s companion.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “Kris is a big fan of the show and the BBC are a big fan of his.”
Kris quit ‘Death in Paradise’ this year after four years as main character Humphrey Goodman.
Pearl Mackie, 30, plays the Doctor’s current assistant Bill Potts, but she is due to leave after just one series.
Should Kris land the part he will follow in the footsteps of the likes of Billie Piper, 34, Jenna Coleman, 31, and Karen Gillan, 29, who have all played the character’s companion in recent years.
Jodie will take over from Peter when he exits the sci-fi show in this year’s Christmas special, despite the BBC stating in April there were “no plans to have a female Doctor Who”.
In response to one fan who issued concerns about speculation an actress could take on the part, BBC complaints officer Joanna Coyne wrote: “We appreciate that you’re a big ‘Doctor Who’ fan and you have concerns that the programme would change should there be a female doctor.
“Be assured there are currently no plans to have a female Doctor Who.”
Jodie, 35, admitted she has had to tell “a lot of lies” to keep her role a secret and had the codename Clooney when discussing the part with her agent and husband.
But she has warned fans not to be “scared” about her becoming the first female Doctor Who.
She said: “It feels completely overwhelming, as a feminist, as a woman, as an actor, as a human, as someone who wants to continually push themselves and challenge themselves, and not be boxed in by what you’re told you can and can’t be. It feels incredible.
“I want to tell the fans not to be scared by my gender. Because this is a really exciting time, and Doctor Who represents everything that’s exciting about change. The fans have lived through so many changes, and this is only a new, different one, not a fearful one.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Sam Chaloner has been evicted from ‘Big Brother’.
The 24-year-old construction worker – who hails from Derbyshire – has been booted out of the house after fellow housemate Andrew Cruickshanks chose to send him home.
Andrew had to make the decision on who to evict after “stealing” the £18,900 the housemates had accumulated during tasks throughout the week.
By choosing to evict Sam, Andrew became the last man standing of the Second Chance housemates and so also won an extra £15,000.
Explaining his decision to evict Sam, Andrew said: “The only thing I can think of is, the person I’m in competition with – Sam. Sam, I will give you something honestly. I just feel so f***ing guilty.”
Sam will now remain in the house until Friday (21.07.17) as a Dead Man Walking and will leave the famous abode with two other evictees, who will find out about their fate on Friday.
Following Andrew’s explanation, Big Brother then told the housemates: “Andrew, as you pressed your buzzer and chose to evict Sam, you have not only successfully stolen £18,900 but have also automatically won £15,000 by making yourself the last Second Chance housemate in the competition. Congratulations. You have won £33,900.
“Sam, you will stay in the house until Friday as a Dead Man Walking. You will continue to nominate and take part in tasks but have been stripped of your housemate status forever.”
And Ellie – who has got a little romance going with Sam – admitted she was gutted to see him go.
When asked if she was upset about Sam’s upcoming departure, she told Kieran: “It’s not long, is it? I think we’re all just shocked about the game.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Suranne Jones is set to star in the new BBC drama ‘Gentleman Jack’.
The 38-year-old actress has joined forces with Sally Wainwright, whom she worked previously with on ‘Dead Clever’, ‘Unforgiven’, and ‘Scott & Bailey’, once again for the forthcoming series in which she will play Anne Lister, the remarkable landowner who – after years of exotic travel and social climbing – returns to Halifax, West Yorkshire in 1832, determined to transform the fate of her faded ancestral home, Shibden Hall.
Suranne said: “I first worked with Sally 10 years ago and I remember the feeling of reading her scripts like it was yesterday. They were scripts for women; fresh, daring and bizarre in a wonderful, modern, fun, complex and challenging way.
“Now I get to once again speak the words of an almighty talent on a show I know she holds close to her heart. To have Sally direct me on this feels like I’ll finally get to work on a project with her where the connection will be immediate, exciting and new each day and we can enjoy that amazing ride together! I’m thrilled to be back at the BBC with this role and to be joining the Lookout Point and HBO family.”
The drama will follow Anne as she attempts to restore Shibden Hall to its former glory by re-opening her coal mines and marry well, but the charismatic, single-minded woman has no intention of marrying a man and, instead, wants to wed a lady.
Sally explained: “I am delighted to be working with Suranne once again, not just as a writer this time, but as a director. Bringing Anne Lister to life with all her complexity, passion, brilliance and wit is an epic challenge that will require all the boldness, subtlety, energy and humour that I know only Suranne will bring to it.”
The whole story is based on facts taken from based on Anne’s real-life diaries.

OHMYGOSSIP — Sam Gowland and Georgia Harrison have been booted off ‘Love Island’.
The couple were sent packing during Wednesday night’s (19.07.17) show after they were voted by the public as the least favourite couple in the villa, followed closely behind by Gabby and Marcel and Alex and Montana.
After Olivia announced the results of the public vote, Georgia said: “It was always going to be us at this stage. It’s been sick. Don’t be upset, we haven’t been together here as long as you guys.”
And in the Beach Hut, Montana admits she thought she was at risk.
She said: “Today I did feel like I was at risk purely because everybody is really strong. I definitely wasn’t expecting it but you always think you could go.”
Georgia later gathered with the girls and Marcel and heaped praise on them for welcoming her with open arms.
She gushed: “Guys it’s been such a pleasure getting to know each and every one of you. It means so much to me how accepting you all were when I came in because you are such good people. I’ve bonded with all of you and this has been the best experience of my f***ing life.”
And in their exit interviews, Sam and Georgia hinted there could be a future for them.
Georgia said: “It’s so much better leaving with someone than leaving on your own … I didn’t actually expect to walk out of here with someone I actually like and I have. It feels more sweet than bitter 100 per cent.”
Whilst Sam added: “At the end of the day, I’ve come back in and I’ve got out of it what I wanted from it. I’ve come in there without a girl and I’ve come out with a girl.”
Meanwhile, during the show, the couples were given their own baby to look after and the girls confronted each other over a liquid lunch.
