Molly-Mae Hague switched Instagram comments off after ‘nasty’ reaction to baby name reveal

OHMYGOSSIP — Molly-Mae Hague found it “really hard” to reveal her baby’s name to the world.
The 23-year-old reality star has been in a relationship with ‘Love Island’ co-star Tommy Fury since they met on the set of the ITV2 dating show in 2019, and after announcing the arrival of their daughter towards the end of last month took to social media again the following day to confirm that the little one has been named after Disney character Bambi.
But Molly-Mae has now admitted she was “brought back down to earth” by the negative response to the moniker, and has hit back at the “nasty” reaction.
Speaking in a video posted to YouTube, she said: “The name reveal was a hard day for me. I switched Instagram comments off on that post. I was brought back down to earth very quickly of how nasty this world can be.
“Because we’d literally known that our first baby girl was going to be called Bambi, we had gotten so used to the idea that that was going to be her name and to us it wasn’t really that unusual anymore.
“And I know it’s unusual and unique and not going to be to everyone’s taste, but when we announced it, in my mind it was just beautiful, it’s her, she’s Bambi and that’s a beautiful name, amazing, amazing. And then just two seconds after posting it I was like, ‘Oh my God!’ ”
Last year, The PrettyLittleThing creative director explained that she had chosen the name when she was a child herself and teased that the moniker was “really unusual” and “different”, and insisted that she knew nobody else with that name.
She said: “Yes, we do have a baby girl name picked out, I’ve had the name picked out since I was a baby girl myself. It’s always been a dream baby girl name and luckily when I met Tommy and I told him the name I’ve always dreamt of using, he absolutely loved it too. It’s a really really unusual and a different name, I do not know anybody else with the name. I’ve not seen any other girls with the name before, it’s that different.”

Doctors pulled from BBC One schedule after Turkey and Syria earthquake

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Doctors’ was pulled from BBC One’s schedule on Wednesday (08.02.23), due to the earthquake in Turkey and Syria.
The daytime medical soap opera was due to air in its usual slot of 1:45pm after the lunchtime news, but following the tragedy of the Kahramanmaras earthquake, which claimed the lives more than 12,000 people, it was decided the ep wouldn’t air, seemingly because of the explosion storyline it was set to explore.
A statement posted to the broadcaster’s official Twitter account read: “In light of news in Turkey and Syria, today’s billed episode of Doctors will be replaced with Animal Park Heroes.”
The opening of the episode was due to see Daniel Granger (Matthew Chambers), Zara Carmichael (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh), Emma Reid (Dido Miles), and Al Haskey (Ian Midlane) trapped by rubble, before the rest of the events are told through a flashback.
The official synopsis read: “There are multiple casualties when an explosion rips through a medical conference with no known cause and some of the Mill staff are caught up in the carnage.”
It is not yet known when the scrapped episode will air, but today’s edition of the soap opera was supposed to feature the debut of former ‘Coronation Street’ star Wendi Peters as Dr Nina Bulsara, who was “thrilled” to be joining the series.
Wendi – famed for playing Cilla Battersby-Brown on the ITV soap from 2003 until 2007 – said: “I am thrilled to be joining the wonderful ‘Doctors’ team to play Dr Nina Bulsara – a woman on a mission who always seems to get what she wants!”

Jimmy Carr suggests Fawlty Towers reboot is set in retirement home

OHMYGOSSIP — Jimmy Carr has suggested the ‘Fawlty Towers’ reboot should be set in a retirement home.
The 50-year-old comedian has had his say on the news this week that John Cleese, 83, and his daughter, Camilla Cleese, are to reboot the iconic sitcom – in which John played the part of hotel owner Basil Fawlty – and he believes the “smart money” would be on the series moving from a hotel to a retirement facility.
He said: “John Cleese is 85 (sic), isn’t he? Surely, the reboot should be set in a retirement home? That’s the smart money.”
Jimmy has also suggested one of the reasons John has decided to reboot the classic show could be to do with money.
He is quoted by the Daily Mail newspaper’s Eden Confidential column as saying: “I think, from John Cleese’s point of view, if he leaves it, he doesn’t get paid. If he reboots it, he gets paid, so reboot away my friend.
“I think they’ve got to write him a cheque beforehand and he’ll be fine. God love him, don’t mess with the man’s money.”
It was confirmed this week that the show – which only ever ran for 12 episodes over two series – is being revived by Castle Rock Entertainment, with John to write and star in the series alongside his daughter.
Matthew George, Rob Reiner, Michele Reiner and Derrick Rossi are set to executive produce the long-awaited reboot.
John – who also co-wrote the original series alongside his ex-wife Connie Booth, who portrayed waitress Polly Sherman – said: “What I like about Matt is that, unlike many producers, he really ‘gets’ the creative process.
“When we first met, he offered an excellent first idea, and then Matt, my daughter Camilla, and I had one of the best creative sessions I can remember. By dessert we had an overall concept so good that, a few days later, it won the approval of Rob and Michele Reiner.
“Camilla and I look forward enormously to expanding it into a series.”

Johannes Radebe ‘punched many times’ in homophobic attack

OHMYGOSSIP — Johannes Radebe was beaten up for being gay during his school days.
The 35-year-old star – who has served as a professional on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ since 2019 – recalled his “horrid” experience of going to school in his hometown of Zamdela, South Africa, as he explained he was labelled as a “sissy boy” and would be duffed up by bullies if he got too close to them.
He said: “I had to duck and dive. School was horrid. They used to say to me, ‘Oh, sissy boy!’ But if I was close by I would have been punched, which I was many times.
“You guys [in the UK] have a long way to go still, but people make space for one another to coexist.”
However, the former ‘Celebrity MasterChef’ contestant went on to explain that finding his vocation made him feel “invincible” and he loved being able to share his “joy” with his pupils, as he performed dance routines in his school assemblies.
He told The Guardian newspaper: “[Dancing made me feel ] invincible. When you walk onto any dance floor you take up space in a room. The music started playing and I knew there was a place where no one can touch me. I wanted people to how much joy and freedom this brings. I wanted to share it with everybody.”
During his time on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, Johannes has been paired up with former ‘Coronation Street’ actress Catherine Tyldesley as well as ‘Men Behaving Badly’ star Caroline Quentin and comedienne Ellie Taylor.
He was also one half of the show’s first-ever all-male couple in 2021 when he finished second on the show alongside ‘Bake Off’ star John Whaite.
He added: “We changed the narrative, Everybody can dance with everybody now!”

Lisa Riley called nanna by her Emmerdale co-stars

OHMYGOSSIP — Lisa Riley is called “nanna” by her younger ‘Emmerdale’ co-stars.
The 46-year-old actress shot to fame when she took on the role of Mandy Dingle in the ITV soap as a teenager in 1995 and remained with the programme until 2001 before returning to the part in 2019.
But Lisa has explained that her days of partying off-set are over, and she is now more of a mentor figure to her younger co-stars.
She said: “At 46, they’re calling me nanna! But I’m fine with that. They’re like ‘Oh, nanna’s here!’ and I’m literally in bed for 10 o’clock. I am a proper nanna. But I was the girl that was out until two o’clock in the morning.”
The former ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ star – who has been teetotal since 2016 and famously shed 12 stone in the same year – went on to add that she has turned things around since the early days of her career, and urges her younger colleagues to stay off social media because she is left “heartbroken” by how they can be affected by the “dangerous” comments they receive online.
Speaking on ITV’s ‘Lorraine’, she added: “I’ve done it all and I know the mistakes that I made and I pulled my socks up and I carried on but I owned it.
“I owned my mistakes so I say ‘Don’t do that’ or ‘Don’t read that stuff that’s gonna hurt your feeling!’ I go ‘I know you’ve been looking at that stuff on social media, don’t read it, it’s dangerous!’ Because it does affect the younguns’, it does. And that breaks my heart. I want them to go in and have that confidence like I did when I was a kid.”
During her almost-20-year break from the show, the ‘Fat Friends’ actress took on dramatic roles in shows such as ‘Waterloo Road’ and ‘Three Girls’, but also became a regular face during pantomime season.
Lisa admitted that every “box had been ticked” during her time away, and explained that she is “so proud” of her time as Mandy Dingle.
She added: “Some days, I just pinch myself. We get our scripts every fortnight and you know the writers aren’t bored of her.
“They love writing for her. That’s great for me as an actor. Sometimes, it’s real heightened comedy and sometimes it is really serious storylines.
“I’m lucky that I can be woven into each pot as it were. I love it and I have creatively ticked every box in my gap that I wanted to tick. I feel like part of the family and I’m working with my dearest friends and then all the newbies are coming in. It’s a lovely place to work and I’m so proud of it.”

Sam Thompson: I joined Made in Chelsea for all the wrong reasons

OHMYGOSSIP — Sam Thompson joined ‘Made In Chelsea’ for “all the wrong reasons”.
The 30-year-old star was cast in the E4 reality show in 2013 – two years after his sister Louise Thompson had signed up – and admitted that while his time on the programme will always be “special” to him, he only took up the opportunity as an attempt to get into nightclubs and impress a girl.
He said: “I started when I was 20 with the mental age of a 15 year old as my sister Louise’s annoying little brother. It’s almost like a past life.
“I know how reality TV is viewed by a lot of people in this industry, especially the higher you get. But it’s always got a special place in my heart.
“I joined it for completely the wrong reasons – to get into nightclubs for free and to go on a date. I was a very late bloomer and still didn’t get either. But it opened my eyes to an industry that I’m now fortunate enough to be a part of.”
The former ‘Celebrity Big Brother star’ – who had a relationship with ‘Made in Chelsea’ co-star Tiffany Watson on the series from 2014 until 2017, but is now dating former ‘Love Island’ contestant Zara McDermott – admitted he “doesn’t mind” having his romantic history being known by millions, and even plans to show his mishaps to his future children as a means of education.
He told the Metro newspaper’s Sixty Seconds column: “I don’t mind. At the end of the day, everything is logged anyway on your Instagram, Facebook and Twitter – people can find anything about you, we’re in the digital age.
“People always say, ‘What about when your kids watch?’ I’m like, ‘I’ll be able to say, ‘Don’t do what dad did. Let me take you to season three, episode four, and show you why you shouldn’t be treating a girl like that.’ It can be used for the greater good!”

Elizabeth Banks wants to bust myths by directing Cocaine Bear

OHMYGOSSIP — Elizabeth Banks wanted to break down myths with ‘Cocaine Bear’.
The 48-year-old director is helming the horror comedy about a bear that goes on a murderous rampage after ingesting a bag full of cocaine and loved having the chance to make a movie that is “muscular and masculine”.
In an interview with Variety, Elizabeth said: “I definitely wanted to make something muscular and masculine.
“I wanted to break down some of the mythology around what kinds of movies women are interested in making. For some bizarre reason, there are still executives in Hollywood who are like, ‘I don’t know if women can do technical stuff.’ There are literally who are like, ‘Women don’t like math.’ It just persists.”
Elizabeth is aware that the film’s outrageous subject matter means that she is putting her career behind the camera at risk by making the project.
She explained: “‘Cocaine Bear’ is a ginormous risk. This could be a career ender for me.”
The ‘Charlie’s Angels’ filmmaker explained that she had to do some graphic research to understand how bears would attack humans.
Elizabeth said: “I don’t recommend anyone do this, but if you go down the internet hole of looking at actual animal attacks on humans, it’s f****** gnarly as s***. I love gore. I grew up on ‘Evil Dead’. The gore is part of the fun of the ride.”
Banks stressed that the audience needs to believe that the drug-addled animal is real and wanted her flick to have a “documentary” feel.
She said: “It had to feel like a NatGeo documentary about a bear that did cocaine. It couldn’t be something silly. It couldn’t seem animated in any way.”

Harrison Ford reveals that ‘old jokes’ were removed from Indiana Jones 5

OHMYGOSSIP — Harrison Ford has revealed that “old jokes” were removed from ‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’.
The 80-year-old actor is reprising his role as Indy for the final time in the upcoming movie but did not want his advancing years to be at the centre of the story.
Harrison told The Hollywood Reporter: “In (‘Dial of Destiny’) there were a lot of old jokes in the script. We took them all out.
“There is a moment where he observes himself in this situation and says, ‘What the f*** am I doing in here?’ But I hate what I call ‘talking about the story’.
“I want to see circumstances in which the audience gets a chance to experience the story, not to be led through the nose with highlights pointed out to them. I’d rather create behaviour that is the joke of age rather than talk about it.”
Harrison is de-aged in the opening sequence of the film but admits that he was unconvinced by the concept at first.
The ‘Star Wars’ legend said: “I never loved the idea until I saw how it was accomplished in this case – which is very different than the way it’s been done in the other films I’ve seen.
“They’ve got every frame of film, either printed or unprinted, of me during 40 years of working with Lucasfilm on various stuff. I can act the scene and they sort through with AI every f****** foot of film to find me in that same angle and light. It’s bizarre and it works and it is my face.”
James Mangold has taken over from Steven Spielberg behind the camera on the movie and explained how comparisons can be made between Ford and the adventurer.
The director said: “Harrison is not unlike Indy in the sense he’s carrying with him the scars of all the films he’s made – as well as his own private calamities.
“He is literally this embodiment of all those bruises, broken bones and being bounced off walls and being thrown to the floor over so many years.”

Iain Lee retires from broadcasting

OHMYGOSSIP — Iain Lee has retired from broadcasting.
The 49-year-old radio DJ – who qualified as a counsellor in December – confirmed he has handed in his notice at Jack FM and admitted he no longer wants to work in radio, because he is keen to focus on his counselling work.
He wrote on Twitter: “Hey everyone, a bit of news, a few weeks ago I handed my notice in at Jack FM. Not sure how long I’ve got left (maybe nothing after this tweet!). It wasn’t working for me with no producer, podcast or daily best bits.
“It’s also made me realise I don’t want to work in radio… anymore so I’m announcing my retirement’ from broadcasting to focus full time on my counselling work. There are of course exceptions. Patreon will continue, as will voiceover work and the odd gig on 4 Extra. I’ll still consider offers but won’t chase them.”
Iain admitted he had “a blast” during the majority of his time on radio, but he is “really tired” at the moment.
He tweeted: “I’ve been working in this industry for 30 years and I’m really tired. So, onto new and better adventures. Thank you radio, for most of it it was a blast. X
“I’m supposed to be back on Jack on Wednesday. These tweets may have knocked that on the head, let’s see. Thanks for all your kind words. (sic)”
In December, Iain revealed he had qualified as a counsellor.
He tweeted: “I am now a qualified counsellor. Right now I’m working primarily via Zoom. I have some spaces on my books.
“If you’d like to chat about how I can help with depression, anxiety, addiction and many other things, please send an email to hello@iainleecounselling.com (sic)”
In June 2020, Iain – who took part in the 17th series of ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ in 2017 – confirmed he had left talkRADIO.
He wrote: “I’ve been waiting for a while to find out if my contract was going to be renewed and today I was finally told that, no, it isn’t. I won’t be going back on air. My last show was last night’s (which I thought was a little dull, a 5 out of 10 only! Out with a whimper!).
“I have had an amazing 4 years at talkRADIO. I’m the only host to be in the original slot that I asked for 4 years after the station started. The only host to have won an industry award (2 ARIAs actually, Best Speech Presenter 2017 and Best Radio Moment 2020). The only host to have saved 2 lives on air.
“The only host to have helped a hopeless alcoholic find redemption. The only host to have had an actual breakdown on the radio. The only host to have told the truth about your prime minister being a racist idiot.
“I could not have done this without my producer and later co-host Katherine Boyle. She was the real power behind the show, not me. I love you Katherine and I know that we made something unique.
“Only you and I know what went on behind the scenes, and yet we stayed true to our aim – to bring more silliness and humanity to the radio. (sic)”

Josie Gibson ‘can’t be bothered’ with dating

OHMYGOSSIP — Josie Gibson “can’t be bothered” with dating.
The sometime ‘This Morning’ co-host and roving reporter will present the show from Monday (13.02.23) to Thursday 16th February over half term, but the star insists there is “definitely not any valentine” for her as Valentine’s Day (14.02.23) approaches.
Asked if she has any romantic plans for Valentine’s Day, she replied: “Aside from spending the morning with Dermot on the 14th, I have no plans… I can’t even pull a party cracker!”
Talking about her celebrity crushes on Jonathan Ross and Coronation Street’s Kevin Webster, she said: “I have met Jonathan Ross since and oh my God! They say never meet your heroes but he was everything and more! I love him even more now.
“We were on a show together and he was such a good talker, you could just listen to him for hours. He is such a good storyteller and really unique and exactly how you’d think he is, just really really nice. But I’m aware he’s got a lovely wife!
“I really like Ricky Gervais as well, there’s something about him and his dry sense of humour. And yes, I was guilty of saying that Kevin Webster was like a fine red wine … but there’s definitely not any valentine for me this year.
“I’m not sure [her son] Reg would be impressed if I got a boyfriend at the moment.
“He already shares me with This Morning, and I don’t want him to share me with anyone else. I just haven’t met anybody where I think ‘yeah, you could really fit into my life’… and it’s also the time and effort too – you’ve got to meet, trust them, date, work each other out, the messaging, I just can’t be bothered!”
Former ‘Big Brother’ star Josie still “can’t quite believe” she gets to co-host ‘This Morning’ with the likes of Dermot O’Leary and Andi Peters.
She added: “I’m back on ‘This Morning’ for half term with Derm and I’m completely honoured.
“Whenever I’m sitting there hosting the show, I often look around and think ‘how the hell did this happen to me?’.
“I’ve had so many different hosting partners and I just love Dermot! Derm and Andi [Peters] are who I grew up watching and my mum reminded me recently that I used to demand a taxi home after school so I would make it in time for Andi on the telly! So it’s just mad that I’m now sitting beside them myself on the telly. I still can’t quite believe it.”
‘This Morning’ airs weekdays from 10am on ITV1 ITVX

Masked Singer’s Claire Richards put ice packs in undies due to costume heat

OHMYGOSSIP — The Masked Singer’s Claire Richards was so hot in her costume she put ice packs in her underwear.
The ‘Tragedy’ hitmaker became the sixth celebrity to be unmasked on the popular ITV competition series on Saturday (04.02.23), with Claire unveiled as Knitting.
But the Steps singer, 45, revealed she was having a costume catastrophe and feared she was going to pass out while filming the series because her outfit was so hot and heavy, so she had to wear ice packs in her bra.
Despite her inconspicuous disguise, Claire was rumbled by the judging panel, which consists of Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan.
She told The Sun newspaper: “I tried to put this American country twang on in the first week but by the end of the song, I couldn’t breathe. So that went out the window. It was really hot.
“I just had a thin layer on underneath and ice packs all tucked in my bra and all sorts of things.”
The 90s superstar had to come up for air literally with mask breaks while performing as Knitting, which was the heaviest costume of the year.
She added: “My head was always the last one to go on, my little booth thing was closest to the stage.
“The floor manager would always say, ‘Right, once everybody else is in place, then Knitting.’ It was the heaviest costume this year.”
Claire admitted she was offered a few options but opted for Knitting as she wanted her body to be completely covered up and not have to worry what she looked like.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “I always knew that I wanted to be something that was completely covered up and not really something pretty or beautiful.
“With Steps because we wear quite tight glittery costumes so I wanted something completely away from that and not be worried for a change about what [my body] looks like.
“So I knew I wanted to be something completely covered up.”

Martin Kemp and Kerry Katona ‘sign up to Really Really Rude Puppet Show’

OHMYGOSSIP — Martin Kemp and Kerry Katona are said to have signed up for ‘The Really Really Rude Puppet Show’.
The ex-‘EastEnders’ actor and former Atomic Kitten star have joined the cast of the risque Channel 4 programme alongside an array of celebs including Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan and Made in Chelsea’s Sam Thompson.
A source told The Sun newspaper’s TV Biz column: “Martin and Kerry have both agreed to take part in ‘The Really Rude Puppet Show’, along with Coleen Nolan, Sam Thompson and Melvin Odoom.
“They all jumped at the chance to get involved in the project which is turning out to be hilarious.”
The six-part series, which is due to air later this year, will see a different set of celebrities every week read out erotic fan fiction about themselves whilst puppets act out the moves.
Former ‘Great British Bake Off’ host Mel Giedroyc will be presenting the show.
Mel said: “This is going to be a celebration of erotic fan fiction. With puppets. Imagine a world where Jackie Collins meets ‘Thunderbirds’.
“I’m so looking forward to a trip to ‘Love Island’, via Tracy Island.”
The source added: “This is arguably one of the most bizarre and brilliant shows ever devised and it’s certainly a departure for Mel.
“She’ll be joined by a famous face who’ll have to recall some of the saucy stuff that’s been written about them over the years.”
Channel 4 commissioner Vivienne Molokwu hopes the show will “encourage creative writing”.
She said: “I’m very much looking forward to steamy storytime with Mel, a gang of celeb mates and a bunch of lookalike puppets.
“This is a very Channel 4 way of encouraging creative writing, where artistic self-expression will be encouraged. We may well unearth the next E.L. James in the process, which has got to be a good thing.”

Ekin-Su was more focused on pleasing DOI fans than skating, says Jake Quickenden

OHMYGOSSIP — Ekin-Su concentrated more on pleasing ‘Dancing On Ice’ fans than figure skating, according to Jake Quickenden.
The former ‘Love Island’ winner, 28, fought back tears on Sunday night (05.02.23) when she and professional partner Brendyn Hatfield were eliminated from the ITV skating show following a skate-off against ‘EastEnders’ actress Patsy Palmer and Matt Evers, but now TV star Jake – who was crowned winner of the series in 2018 – has claimed that the “sporadic” nature of her performances led to her exit from the show.
He said: “I think she was so upset to go because she was really enjoying the whole experience. She’s done ‘Love Island’ but this seems like her first reality show since leaving the villa and it is such a privilege to do a show as big as that. Everyone’s going to be disappointed when they leave – it’s understandable! I don’t think she was the weakest skater, but maybe people didn’t get behind her, which is surprising because she’s got such a great personality and we saw that on ‘Love Island’. It seemed quite sporadic in everything that they were doing, even though her skating was improving, I think she was kind of concentrating on pleasing the viewer too much with what she wears rather than just concentrating on the skating – that’s how it came across to me, if I’m honest.”
The former ‘X Factor’ contestant also claimed that Ekin – who has been dating Davide Sanclimente since they met on the set of ‘Love Island’ last year – confused viewers with her ever-changing style as she went from skating to sultry Britney Spears hit ‘Toxic’ to dressing as Julie Andrews and completing a routine to Do-Re-Mi from classic musical ‘The Sound of Music.’
Writing in his OK! Magazine column, he added: “What I think did kind of go against her is that she kept changing her style. What I think did kind of go against her is that she kept changing her style. She came out the first week like Britney Spears in that bodysuit and she got a bit of flack for that, with people saying it was too sexual, then she totally changed the week and then the week after that very different with the ‘Sound of Music’ outfit, and then this week was a little bit different again. I just think viewers maybe thought, ‘we don’t really know what’s going on with her’ and it distracted from her growth.
Following her elimination from the show, Ekin had to be to be comforted by hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby as she insisted: “I’ve put so much time into this. All the work commitments I had at the time, this was my priority, and I really gave everything to it. I love it. I really love it and I fell in love with the ice.”

Tanyel Revan’s sister applied for her to go on Love Island

OHMYGOSSIP — Tanyel Revan’s sister applied for her to go on ‘Love Island’.
Yesim Revan has told how she secretly put her sister up for the ITV2 dating show after the 26-year-old hair stylist declared: “Guys are rubbish”.
Recalling the moment she decided to apply on her sister’s behalf, Yesim said: “I remember Tanny kept saying, ‘Ugh, guys are rubbish, you can’t trust anyone!’, so I thought, ‘How cool would it be if she went on the show?’
“The boys would be on 24/7 surveillance so she’d know exactly what they were up to all the time, plus she loves the show, so I thought it would be perfect for her. I went online and put her email address into the application. She had no idea.”
Tanyel was shocked at first, but eventually she didn’t mind going along with it.
Yesim said: “She rang me and was like, ‘What have you just done?!’ But she was happy to go along with it in the end.”
While Tanyel is now appearing on the show, Yesim insists she “isn’t fame-hungry” and is doing so to find her Mr Right.
She added to OK!: “My sister has had so many opportunities to get her name out there – people have asked her to model and to be in a beauty contest – but she turned them down.
“She’s not fame-hungry at all, so when this opportunity came about, she did it because she was so down about guys and this is the ultimate environment to test a potential partner.
“She was influenced by the likes of Molly-Mae Hague finding her dream guy. There have been a few successful love stories in there, so she thought she might be able to find her own good egg.”
