OHMYGOSSIP — Lisa Snowdon suffered a miscarriage live on air after she was violently attacked by an ex-boyfriend.
The 51-year-old TV presenter has recalled the devastating loss of her baby in her new book, ‘Just Getting Started: Lessons in Life, Love and Menopause’.
In the book – excerpts of which have been published by The Sun newspaper – Lisa writes: “I rushed to the bathroom, full of panic. I didn’t know what to do. We’d only just gone on air, and I knew I had to keep working.
“I dug deep and tried to park the dread I felt in the pit of my stomach, praying that my baby would be OK.
“As soon as the show was finished and we were off air, I rushed to the hospital.
“When I arrived, my worst fears were confirmed – the scan showed that the heartbeat had stopped. My baby had died.”
Lisa remains convinced that her ex-partner’s abusive behaviour was responsible for her baby loss.
She shared: “To say I was devastated was an understatement; I was heartbroken, inconsolable.
“I am convinced the reason for my miscarriage was yes, partly due to the egg quality, but also because my partner had attacked me in the street the night before, shaking me violently and throwing me up against some metal shop-front shutters.”
Lisa is still in constant pain from her injuries.
However, she hopes that coming forward about her experience will help other people who are going through something similar.
The TV star – who took the decision to have an abortion after getting pregnant by another abusive boyfriend – said: “Admitting this now, I hope it may save the life of someone who is the victim of an abuser.
“If any of my family, my young and innocent nieces or nephews, ever experienced this kind of evil, I don’t think I could be held responsible for what I would do to their abuser.
“I know that’s not really what I should be saying, but I still have a lot of anger inside me, and I guess some regret.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Helen Flanagan would “love” to return to ‘Coronation Street’.
The 32-year-old actress first found fame as Rosie Webster on the ITV soap, and Helen has confirmed that she’d love to return to the cobbles in the coming years.
The actress – who has Matilda, seven, Delilah, four, and Charlie, two, with sports star Scott Sinclair – told the Daily Star newspaper: “I’d love to go back to ‘Corrie’, I really, really would, but it has to be when the time’s right because my little boy’s only young.”
Helen last appeared on ‘Coronation Street’ in 2018, and she’s already thought of how her character might’ve changed.
She explained: “I’d like to see Rosie be a mum, I think that would be interesting. I think she would palm Sally off with the kids and then just go and do anything that she wants.”
Last year, an insider revealed that ‘Coronation Street’ bosses would welcome Helen’s return to the show.
It was also suggested that the actress misses playing the part of Rosie.
The source told The Sun newspaper at the time: “Helen’s talking about plans to return – not this year, but maybe late next year.
“Bosses have made it clear they’d welcome her back and she sees the soap cast as family.
“She misses them, and playing Rosie, a lot.”
Helen was previously happy to prioritise her relationship with former Chelsea star Scott.
But following their split, she’s now keen to return to ‘Coronation Street’.
The insider explained: “What was stopping her before was looking after her kids and Scott’s football career – she never knew where he’d sign next or where they’d live.
“But now she’s single she’s talking a lot about going back to ‘Corrie’ – she hasn’t had any official meetings yet but it’s something she’s talking about.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Vernon Kay has been surprised by claims that he’s too young to host a show on BBC Radio 2.
The 49-year-old star is replacing veteran broadcaster Ken Bruce on Radio 2, and Vernon admits that he made a “mistake” by checking social media after the news was announced.
He told The Sun newspaper: “The reaction [to the announcement] was interesting because the first thing you do in this day and age is look at social media, which is a mistake, obviously.
“Apart from obvious fans of Ken – which is pretty much everyone – it’s largely been pretty positive, though.
“But I also had the best trolling I’ve ever had: ‘It’s a disgrace that young Vernon Kay is taking over!’ Young? I’m 50 next year! I will file all of these insults.
“But it goes to show how much it means to people – you’re a part of everyday life for a broad section of our ­communities.”
Vernon is looking forward to the challenge, despite the mixed reaction from the public.
The TV and radio star – who is married to presenter Tess Daly – explained: “The demographic at Radio 2 is so huge.
“My dad is a lorry driver, my mum worked in a department store, my brother is a primary school teacher, my mates are gasmen, plumbers, teachers, and one works in a brewery, so hopefully I’ve got a lot of experience to cover a lot of social demographics.”
Ken, 72, hosted his own show on Radio 2 for more than three decades.
But Vernon admits he still hasn’t spoken to the broadcaster about his experiences.
He shared: “I’ve not got his number so no, I haven’t spoken to him since it was announced.
“I didn’t know him that well, although he did come and watch me in pantomime once.
“I’d love to speak to him though, and raise a glass. I’m sure we will at some stage.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Michelle Keegan loves playing “strong” women.
The 35-year-old actress rose to stardom as Tina McIntyre in ‘Coronation Street’, and Michelle admits that she relishes the challenge of playing strong-minded women on screen.
The actress – who stars in the historical drama series ‘Ten Pound Poms’ – told the Radio Times magazine: “I like strong women; I think that probably comes from playing Tina McIntyre in ‘Corrie’ when I was 19 years old.
“When I’m reading for these characters I feel a fire in my belly. When I left ‘Corrie’, I wanted the next thing to be right, and it was the same when I finished ‘Our Girl’ and ‘Brassic’. I take time to think, ‘What’s the next step?'”
Michelle explained that when she left ‘Coronation Street’, she made peace with the possibility that she might never get another role again.
She said: “When I decided to leave ‘Corrie’, I remember coming to terms with the idea of not acting again.
“I always said to myself, ‘If I don’t get a job after this, at least I’ve had a good run: not many people can say they’ve had this career for six and a half years.’ The decision to leave was always a risk but it was the right thing for me at the time, so I’d never have regretted it.
“If it hadn’t worked out, I’d have done something to do with dogs – that’s my happy place.”
Michelle married reality star Mark Wright in 2015, and in recent years, she’s made a concerted effort to keep their romance out of the limelight.
The former soap star said: “I stopped enjoying it as much and I wanted a bit more privacy. It was just a thing that slowly happened where I grew the confidence to say that I wanted to keep some things to myself.”

OHMYGOSSIP — The Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool was the most-watched grand final in BBC history.
The broadcaster has confirmed that the live show – which was staged at the M and S Bank Arena in Liverpool – attracted an average audience of 9.9 million people and the BBC’s broadcast peaked at 11 million viewers.
Kate Phillips, the BBC’s director of unscripted, said in a statement: “What an incredible contest. It was unforgettable, unmissable event television on a scale never seen before delivered by the BBC to viewers across the UK and millions more watching around the world.”
Swedish pop star Loreen claimed the Eurovision crown, on a night when Ukraine and the country’s ongoing struggles were put at the heart of the show.
Elsewhere, British entrant Mae Muller finished second-from-bottom on the leaderboard.
Kate added: “Sweden took home the trophy in spectacular style and 2022 winners Ukraine were at the heart of the show. Liverpool welcomed the world’s biggest singing competition with open arms and embraced it beyond all of our expectations.
“The fact that so many millions of people tuned in reflects just how significant Eurovision has become and truly underlines the theme behind this year’s contest, United by Music. We really hope we did Ukraine proud.”
The BBC’s previous Eurovision landmark was set in 2011, when 9.5 million people tuned in to watch the show, while in 2022, the event attracted an audience of 8.9 million people.
Meanwhile, Mae has taken to social media to insist that she’s proud of herself, despite falling to win the Eurovision crown.
The 25-year-old singer wrote on Twitter: “i just want to say thank u x i know i joke a lot but we really put our all into the last few months, not the result we hoped for but so proud of everyone and what we achieved on this journey. Congrats to all the countries, I’ll never forget this journey and I love you all. [heart emoji] (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Spencer Matthews missed Jamie Laing’s wedding because his best pal is “badly organised”.
The 34-year-old star was a notable absentee while Jamie married Sophie Habbo in Chelsea in April – but Spencer has now revealed that it was merely an oversight on the part of his showbiz pal.
He told OK! magazine: “It’s water under the bridge. Jamie’s a bit scatty, he’s badly organised, and at the end of the day, I believe it, so he’s off the hook.”
Spencer also recalled being caught off guard by Jamie’s wedding.
He said: “I thought the same when I read it online, saying ‘this looks like something I should be at.'”
The TV star and Sophie exchanged vows in front of hundreds of their friends and family at a registry office in Chelsea.
The loved-up duo – who were seen sharing a kiss outside the registry office – were joined on their big day by some of their showbiz pals, including Millie Mackintosh, Ollie Locke, and Hugo Taylor.
Before walking down the aisle, Sophie gave her social media followers an insight into her last-minute wedding preparations.
Sophie took to Instagram to reveal that she was having a so-called hydrafacial and various other treatments before she tied the knot.
She wrote on the photo-sharing platform at the time: “I’m getting married tomorrow!!!!
“I’ve been prepping my skin with monthly Hydrafacials from @hydrafacial_uk. I’ve been getting Hydrafacials since I was around 18 and I cannot recommend them enough and wanted to make sure I had a programme of treatments before the wedding.
“They cleanse, extract and hydrate your skin and you can add boosters to get an even better result and target any specific concerns. It’s been an hour of ‘me time’ and I am so happy with the results. (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Vernon Kay thinks communication can be “more intimate” than sex.
The 49-year-old TV star has been married to ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ co-host Tess Daly since 2003, and Vernon has suggested that good communication has been one of the keys to their success.
He told The Sun newspaper: “I think sometimes communication can be more intimate.
“Physical is physical but when you’re chatting and being open and honest, and you’re intimate in that way, that’s a bigger connection, isn’t it?
“When you’re 93 you’re probably not going to be s******* from the rafters … maybe I’ll try the Viagra by then!
“Intimacy is not just being in bed and making love. Intimacy stretches to all aspects of life.
“The best thing you can do is just talk to each other – put the kettle on and chat.
“Sometimes you have to bite your tongue, but you’ve also got to come out with stuff that’s bothering you because when you don’t, that’s when it festers and grows, and things become more difficult. Communication is key.”
Despite this, Vernon still worries about getting older.
In particular, the TV star fears that one day, Tess might no longer be attracted to him.
He shared: “I think sex is still important in a marriage, though, because your bodies are both different, and love is evolving constantly.
“Travelling through life together starts when you get married, but your bodies change, and my body – I know for a fact – doesn’t look like it did when we first met when I was 22.
“I worry about it, and I think hiding behind a ‘dad bod’ is a sad excuse.
“I don’t think men should be using it as an excuse not to look after themselves – you should look after yourself if you’re able to and you can. I always want to be in peak shape physically.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Michelle Keegan has always dreamed of starring in a TV period drama.
The ‘Ten Pound Poms’ star has fulfilled one of her long-held ambitions by appearing in the BBC drama, which tells the story of Brits migrating to Australia.
The 35-year-old actress told the Radio Times magazine: “If the role was right, yes, I’d strip it back, get my hair greasy, anything.
“I dreamt of doing a period drama, and I’m currently filming my first proper thriller, so I’m totally open to whatever speaks to me.”
Despite this, Michelle admitted to being underwhelmed by the Australian weather.
She shared: “It was a lot colder than I thought! All I packed were flip-flops, dresses and T-shirts, and when I got there I had to buy a warm coat, a rain mac and boots. But it was amazing.
“I’d never been to Australia before – I had a bit of time off and I went travelling to Cairns. I went to a koala sanctuary and took a trip through the rainforest in an old steam train.”
Meanwhile, Michelle admitted that in spite of her “glam” displays on red carpets, she’s actually “most comfortable” when she’s relaxing at home with her pooches and her husband Mark Wright.
Asked what about her might surprise people, the former soap star – who marred Mark in 2015 – replied: “Maybe that my most comfortable isn’t when I’m glam – it’s wearing no make-up at home in my jammies on the couch with the dogs. And I’m a good cook. I do a good gambas piri piri.
“I’ll still get dressed up now and again for a red carpet, but they’re very few and far between.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘I’m A Celebrity… South Africa!’ looks set to return “periodically”.
Following the success of the all-stars spin-off of the ITV reality show – which was won by Myleene Klass – bosses are said to be keen to bring the programme back from time to time.
An insider told The Sun: “Show chiefs feel that there is plenty of scope to do more.
“They have more than 200 ex-campmates to choose from — there could even be certain themes such as all-male, villains, or jungle shower legends.
“It was very much commissioned as a one-off so talks about how and when it could return are only just beginning, but ITV wanted to preserve the format for the future.
“It definitely wouldn’t be a yearly occurrence, but a format to revisit periodically.
“It’s very good news for fans of I’m A Celebrity who will be hoping to see some more of their favourites appear.”
Former glamour model Katie Price, 44, has suggested she and ex-husband Peter Andre, 50, would be a legendary booking for the show after they competed on the 2004 series of ‘I’m A Celeb’.
Throwing shade at the stars who returned for the South Africa show, Katie said: “A lot of people are saying, am I doing I’m A Celeb? No, but I’m interested in this show.
“Apparently they’re already out there filming with ‘the legends.’
“I don’t think they’re legends.
“Imagine, if they had me and Pete on it. Imagine.”
TV star Myleene – who first appeared on ‘I’m A Celebrity’ back in 2006 – was crowned the winner of the all-star series, after she came through a series of brutal trials.
The 45-year-old star – who has Hero, 12, and Ava, 15, with her ex-husband Graham Quinn, as well as Apollo, three, with Simon Motson – said of her win: “I had a ball the first time. This time around, I’m a mum and that changes everything.
“You don’t want to let your children down, you don’t want to say something that will embarrass them. You don’t want to bottle out of a trial.”
