OHMYGOSSIP — Stephanie Davis is convinced she and Jeremy McConnell will be “happy again” once he’s completed his six-week stint in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction.
The 24-year-old actress has vowed to stand by her man – who she rekindled her romance with earlier this year following the birth of their three-month-old son Caben – while he’s receiving treatment for his demons and has asked him to move in with her in Liverpool when he’s released so she can help keep him on the straight and narrow.
A source told Closer magazine: “Steph believes all the problems in their relationship were down to Jeremy’s drinking and drug-taking. She’s convinced that once he gets professional help, they’ll be able to be happy again.
“As soon as Jeremy leaves rehab, she wants him to move to Liverpool where she can keep a close eye on him and make sure he doesn’t slip back into old habits.”
And, although their relationship still needs a lot of work, the former ‘Hollyoaks’ star thinks she’ll get her “fairy tale” ending one day and wants to wed the Irish heartthrob.
The insider explained: “After everything they’ve been through, Steph is dreaming of a fairy-tale ending and that includes getting married. She believes a wedding would mark a fresh start and be the perfect chance to put the past behind them.”
The currently-on couple struck up a relationship last January after they met and fell in love while competing on ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ but things came crashing down just five months later when the brunette beauty found out Jeremy had cheated.
She then found out a few weeks later – after their split – that she was pregnant.
The 27-year-old heartthrob spent Stephanie’s pregnancy denying that Caben was his but discovered – via a paternity test – four weeks after his birth that the little one does belong to him and he agreed to step up to the mark for his innocent child.
After getting back in contact and spending more time together, the pair decided to give their romance another go but they split up yet again just a few weeks ago.

OHMYGOSSIP — Gemma Oaten has teased that she’s set to get her contract extended on ‘Holby City’.
The 32-year-old actress received rave reviews when she made her debut as agency nurse Sydney Somers in the medical drama last week and has hinted that there may be an opportunity for her loveable alter ego to make a return to the hospital wards.
She told the Express.co.uk: “I’d love to be a regular. From the feedback that I had [it sounds positive] but you’ve just got to leave it in the hands of the Gods, I suppose.”
And, although she only made her entrance last week, Nurse Somers has already managed to ruffle a few feathers on the ward – particularly Fletch (Alex Walkinshaw).
And it looks like things are only set to get more heated between the co-workers.
She explained: “Expect Fletch to be absolutely gobsmacked when Sydney does walk back into the ward. As far as he’s aware she’s got no more shifts there.”
The former ‘Emmerdale’ star – who was known for playing tracksuit-loving mother Rachel Breckle in the ITV soap – announced she was making a guest appearance in the medical drama last year when she uploaded a photograph from her first date of set.
Taking to her Twitter account just after she arrived on set, the brunette beauty uploaded a photograph of her dressing room with her name on it and accompanied it with the caption: “Hello #holbycity Feeling one of the luckiest & loving every minute! Can’t say anything more #happy #actress #dreambig (sic)”
Gemma isn’t the first person from ‘Emmerdale’ to join a medical drama as her former co-star Chelsea Halfpenny now has a permanent role in ‘Casualty’.
The 25-year-old actress appeared in the popular show, which is set in the same hospital as ‘Holby City’, last year as trainee doctor Alicia Munroe before her alter ego fled the department as she felt bullied by consultant Lily Chao (Crystal Yu).
She then returned to the hospital this year after her parents divorced and she has certainly made her mark on the male staff thus far.

The police are eager to speak to Arthur about the attack at Mangle nightclub, where 20 victims were doused with a corrosive substance.
A representative for Ferne said: “Ferne is aware that the police wish to speak to Arthur Collins and the nature of the accusations against him.
“Obviously these are highly shocking and Ferne has co-operated with the police in their inquiries. She was not with Arthur on Sunday night; was not at Mangle; and has no direct knowledge of the events that unfolded.”
Ferne, 26, has implored her boyfriend to go to a police station to discuss the incident with officers.
The rep continued: “As much as anybody she wants to know the truth and urges Arthur to co-operate fully with the police and attend a police station immediately.”
Meanwhile, a statement from the Metropolitan Police read: “Arthur Collins, 25, of Hertfordshire is wanted for questioning by police. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is urged to contact with investigators. He should not be approached by members of the public. If seen the public are advised to call 999 immediately.”
The drama unfolded shortly after Ferne – who met Arthur on Instagram last summer – admitted she and her partner have already discussed the possibility of getting married.
The ‘This Morning’ presenter said: “We’ve spoken about our wedding. We want to get married on a beach. I want it to be a party and a celebration.
“I want these long extensions, mermaid-style hair covering my breasts, with flowers in my hair and no shoes. He can wear shorts and a shirt undone, then we want an amazing DJ with bongos and a saxophonist.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Paul O’Grady thinks hosting ‘Blind Date’ will bring him closer to Cilla Black again.
The 61-year-old presenter was left devastated when his friend passed away in 2015, and he can see himself “morphing into” his old friend now he is to front her old show, which is being revived after 14 years off screen.
He said: “The reason I want to do it is I don’t want it to be messed up. I might mess it up but then it’s my fault and I’ll give it my best shot. ‘Blind Date’ was funny and that’s what we need to get back to. The laugh we’ll have with some of the contestants… And doing it means I’m sort of close to her again. I can hear her now, ‘Come on, Paul.’ I’ll morph into her. I know I will. I can see it happening. Her son Robert is all for it and he said to me, ‘If Mother was alive, she’d be over the bloody moon’. ”
And Paul is adamant Cilla will still be very much a part of the show.
He added: “I can get away with saying things about her because we’re mates. Somebody who didn’t know her couldn’t do that because it might be seen as disrespectful. I can say, ‘She left me this in her will. Thanks, Cilla.’
“You can’t ignore her. It was such an iconic show and she was synonymous with it. It would be disrespectful not to mention her.
“The old girl will be living on. I’m really looking forward to it.”
Paul is proud the show will be embracing “diversity” and will feature same-sex couples, as well as older people looking for love.
Asked if there’ll be same sex couples, he told heat magazine: “We’ve moved on now, haven’t we? I didn’t even have to fight for that, they were all for it. We’ve got the over-70s too. You name it, we’ve got it. We’ve gone big time for diversity.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Davina McCall reportedly wants to become a spin instructor.
The 49-year-old television personality and fitness fanatic, who once claimed she beat a cheetah in a race, has aspirations to teach the high impact static cycle exercise class and is said to be weighing up running her own sessions later this year.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “Davina loves her exercise, but this shows how big a part it plays in her life.
“Walking into a class and seeing her is bound to give anyone that extra motivation.
“The course will take up a lot of her time, so it’s still something she is weighing up for later in the year but Davina has proven she won’t shy away from a challenge.”
The former ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ host’s plans will come as no surprise to her husband Matthew Robertson – with whom she has daughters Holly, 15, Tilly 13, and son Chester, 10 – as the brunette beauty and her spouse of 17 years enjoy time alone exercising with one another.
She recently said: “We love sharing a hobby together.
“We don’t have to motivate each other to exercise – whether that’s going out on the bikes or to the gym together – because it’s become part of our lives.”
Even hanging out with her friends turns to fitness.
She said: “If I have three girlfriends round at once, it kind of turns into a class. I come over all Jane Fonda.”
Davina – who has released a whole host of fitness DVDs, including the most recent ‘Davina: 30 Day Fat Burn’ – previously shared how she sped past a cheetah, one of the fastest animals in the world, to record a narrow victory over the plodding puss during filming for the factual series ‘Life At The Extreme’.
She said: “My fitness did help, especially with things like racing a cheetah in the first episode!
“I actually beat him, even if it was by one second.”

An insider told The Daily Mirror newspaper: “David was convincing as Hartnell, it’s exciting he’s back.
“Four years ago it took all the previous Doctor’s to save Gallifrey, so maybe some of the others will also pop up in Capaldi’s swansong.
“It’s great that the first Doctor will be there to help out during those all-important regeneration moments.”
Capaldi has announced this is his last series as the Time Lord and is set to regenerate at the end of the year.
David, who is known for starring as Argus Filch in the Harry Potter series, played Hartnell’s Doctor back in 2013 alongside the current Doctor at the time Matt Smith.
Hartnell played the character between 1963 to 1966 but died in 1975.
Last week rumours began suggesting Capaldi will regenerate into ‘My Family’ actor Kris Marshall.
A source said at the time: “Kris Marshall has already joined the cast and will regenerate at the end of this series, not the in the Christmas special.”
However, a spokesperson for the BBC told MailOnline: “No casting decisions have yet been made on series 11.”
The latest series started last Saturday (15.04.2017) and the Doctor’s new openly gay companion Bill Potts, played by Pearl Mackie, was praised.
Pearl, 29, said; “I think it’s crucial to have that kind of representation in mainstream TV, on shows that are aimed at children as well as adults.”
It has not been confirmed whether Pearl will be leaving the series along with Capaldi at the end of the year.

OHMYGOSSIP — Lucy Fallon’s boyfriend and dad cannot watch her character’s grooming scenes in ‘Coronation Street’.
The 21-year-old actress portrays Bethany Platt in the long-running soap but her alter ego’s currently storyline, which sees her boyfriend Nathan Curtis pimp her out for cash, has turned so dark that her family, excluding her mother, can’t bear to watch the show anymore because it’s so distressing.
Lucy, who is dating salesman Tom Leech, told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “My mum watches it but I don’t think my dad can watch it at the moment. And my boyfriend doesn’t watch because he finds it too uncomfortable. I find it uncomfortable to watch because it’s me in it.
“She does end up sleeping with Neil and it upset me because she’s saying no and ‘I’m not that kind of girl’ and he just lays her on the bed. I had to cry and it was like ‘oh this is horrible’. I could really put myself in that mindset, I think you kind of have to otherwise you’re not doing it properly.”
Although she knows she’s only acting, the blonde beauty has admitted she really struggles to detach herself from the emotional scenes once filming wraps up and tries to do so by listening to music.
She explained: “It’s horrific. I don’t think there’s any way you can get out of it but I have quite a long drive home so I zone out and listen to my music and by the time I get home I feel normal again.
“Even though it’s uncomfortable to watch, I think it’s so important. I’m determined to do it justice.”
To prepare for the storyline, Lucy who was put in touch with a woman who had been through a similar ordeal to her character and has affected the way she will bring up her own children.
She said: “If I have a child, boy or girl, it’s changed the way I feel about them being on social media from such a young age, I don’t think it should be allowed. I think there should be an age limit, I think 16.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Binky Felstead has already named her unborn child.
The ‘Made in Chelsea’ star isn’t due to welcome her little bundle of joy into the world with her partner Josh ‘JP’ Patterson for another few months but the on/off pair – who are currently back on – have already chosen their daughter’s moniker and middle name.
Binky’s best friend Ollie Locke told OK! magazine: “I think she is going to go mid-range. She’ll do classic. I do actually know the baby’s name. I even know the middle names. When she was seven weeks pregnant she came round to my flat for a drink and she gave me the baby scan. I burst into tears.”
Although his best friend is happily settled with her beau and baby, Ollie is desperate to find someone of his own to love and to hate.
He explained: “I think everyone wants the same happily ever after. I’m not looking for a complete fairy tale. I want the dramas in between too, as otherwise it’ll be terribly boring. I’m looking for someone that I love and hate. Someone who I can have an argument with but still know that I want to spend the rest of my life with them.”
The socialite came out as bisexual a few years ago but realised last summer that he was actually only interested in dating men following a string of failed romances.
Ollie said: “It was one of the most difficult things because I didn’t know my sexuality but I wanted to put it on the show. It was a big decision to talk about it. Bisexuality wasn’t talking about in the same way six years ago. People didn’t understand it and people didn’t particularly like it. The ridicule I got from not saying I was gay immediately was unreal. It was judged highly. It wasn’t fair.”
