OHMYGOSSIP — Olivia Bowen has already decided on a name for her unborn baby.
The 28-year-old reality TV star and her husband Alex Bowen, 30, have narrowed down their choice to three names, one for a boy and two for a girl.
She wrote on Instagram: “Yes! We have a boys’ name which is actually what my mum was going to call my brother.
“Our girls name, we have two that we like which are very different. One is strong & modern & the other is traditional.”
Olivia – who met Alex on ‘Love Island’ in 2016 – announced her pregnancy over the festive holidays and she had previously gushed about wanting a family with her husband.
She said: “We’ve been talking about kids recently. We’d love to have one in the near future, which I don’t think we were ready for before.
“It was a bit of a revelation – I’ve got a picture of us when we decided that we’d not worry about contraception any more.
We’re not putting any pressure on it, but that’s our next step. I feel like I’m such an un-motherly person, but suddenly something changes. You just grow up. We’ve got so much to look forward to.”
Back in 2021, Olivia revealed the couple had postponed their baby plans due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
She said: “We were thinking about it and then things just kinda changed, especially with lockdown still happening and the world being so unknown at the moment, I put it off. I also have to go to New York for two months so…
“The world scares me right now so we postponed. I know what I’m like and I know I wouldn’t be good at being pregnant during lockdown I don’t think! I need my friends and family close. Hats off to all of you strong ladies.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Binky Felstead’s friends struggled to understand her new life as a mum.
The 31-year-old reality TV star was the first of her friends to give birth at 27 and Binky admitted it affected her friendships with those her own age.
She explained to MailOnline: “I was 27 when I gave birth to India. I was the first of my friends and they struggled to understand what I was going through, quite understandably.
“I wasn’t up for going out partying, getting on some high heels and a tight dress and going clubbing. That wasn’t my bag anymore. I couldn’t think of anything worse.”
And Binky turned to other new mothers who were a few years older than her.
She said: “For me, it was all about making some new friends who are actually a couple of years older than me and we’re really close now because we all had kids at the same time.
“We’re all going through the same thing, going on playdates together so really I’ve made a whole new life for myself. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been.”
Now that Binky’s friends her own age have started having children of their own, they have all turned to her for advice.
She said: “I was very young for my age [to have a baby], it wasn’t on anyone’s radar so of course it happens. You hear mums talking all the time about how friendship changes.
“I’ve changed as a person really since becoming a mum. My priorities changed and it’s cool because all my friends are having babies now so I’m the one they come to when they want advice. I love that.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Oti Mabuse insists it’s “not for [her]” to say if she will return for the next series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The 31-year-old pro dancer – who recently joined the ‘Dancing on Ice’ panel – hasn’t confirmed whether she will be heading back to the long-running series later this year, but admitted she “truly loves” the programme.
Asked if she would be “gutted” if she “didn’t have time” for ‘Strictly’ this year, Oti replied: “Everybody keeps asking me. It’s not for me to say.
“‘Strictly’ is such a big machine and no one is bigger than that show. To touch anything around ‘Strictly’ is such an honour and it will always be who I am. For everyone who’s on it and part of it on and off screen, we all truly love it.”
Oti also praised ‘Strictly’ for being a part of social progress.
She told the Metro newspaper: “‘Strictly’ creates awareness in a nice way, not in a way where people go, ‘That’s a bit too much’.
“More, ‘Oh yeah, I’ll try that’. Even Bill [Bailey] winning ‘Strictly’ at his age … for a lot of the older generation, they’ll look at him doing a jive and be inspired to try something new.
“The fact Rose Ayling-Ellis has a petition to give sign language legal recognition – we should all be standing with her.”
Oti previously explained there’s a “process and a protocol” to follow before her ‘Strictly’ future is resolved.
Asked if she’ll return for the next series, she said: “I don’t know yet. There will be an announcement made by ‘Strictly’, not just about me, but there’s a process and a protocol.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Jack Fincham’s daughter has spent three days in hospital, in what her mum has described as a “living nightmare”.
The former ‘Love Island’ star’s ex Casey Ranger has revealed her and Jack’s two-year-old daughter Blossom spent eight hours in A&E before she was rushed to the Royal London Hospital, where she had to undergo “continuous tests” before being allowed to go home.
Casey wrote on Instagram: “My brave little bear. The last few days have been a living nightmare. After spending 8 hours in A&E we were rushed away in an ambulance to the Royal London Hospital.
“After two nights there & 3 days of continuous tests, scans & X-rays, we are finally home. I am unable to put the last few days/nights/hours/minutes into words.
“ALl I can say is how UNBELIEVABLY PROUD I am of my little lady & how incredibly grateful we are to be back in the comfort of our own home, sat on the sofa, candles burning, ready to eat some popcorn & watch Encanto with our cat. (sic)”
Casey revealed Blossom is now “on the mend”, and is getting some rest at home.
She added: “I am forever grateful that my bubba is on the mend & we will be spending the next few days at home so Blossom can get some rest; this means baking cakes, colouring in, painting & snuggling up on the sofa watching movies.”
Casey gave birth to Blossom in January 2020, and just a week later Jack admitted he kept the baby news a secret so his ex could have a “peaceful pregnancy”.
He said at the time: “I’m loving fatherhood. But not nappy changing – it stinks. I can’t stop staring at her though she’s beautiful.
“I kept the pregnancy a secret so her mum could have a peaceful pregnancy and she did.
“Everyone from ‘Love Island’ has been in touch to wish me well and it made me cry.”
Dani Dyer – who won ‘Love Island’ alongside Jack in 2018 – had no idea her ex had become a dad until he announced the birth on social media.
When asked if she knew about the baby, Dani said: “No of course not! No news! When everyone else found out, I found out.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Coronation Street’ tours are set to return in March.
A two-year-hiatus has been in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but fans of the long-running soap will soon be able to visit the set once again.
Steve Masters, the general manager of Continuum Attractions, the firm that runs the tour, said: “Even with all the drama unfolding on our screens over the last couple of years, those cobbles haven’t half been quiet and we’ve missed sharing them with all our guests!
“But, it’s going to be well worth the wait and we look forward to welcoming our first guests back on the street next month.”
The tour lasts 90 minutes and allows fans to go behind-the-scenes of the iconic soap, as they visit landmarks such as the Rovers Return and Roy Cropper’s cafe.
Organisers have confirmed that new bookings can be made from March 12 onwards.
Last year, Queen Elizabeth visited the set of ‘Coronation Street’ to help celebrate the soap’s diamond jubilee.
The 95-year-old monarch was given a tour of the studios, which included a visit to the Rovers Return pub.
The queen met a number of cast members during her visit, including Bill Roache, who plays Ken Barlow, and she praised them for keeping the soap going amid the COVID-19 crisis.
She said: “It’s really marvellous you’ve been able to carry on.”
In response, Bill quipped: “Well, ma’am, you’re the one who has carried on.”
The monarch – who previously visited ‘Coronation Street’ in 1982, at its original studios in Manchester – also shared a joke with Kate Spencer, who played Grace Vickers.
During a chat about the show’s famous cobbled streets, Kate said: “[They’re] hard to walk on.”
The queen then looked down at her shoes and replied: “No, I know. I’ve been told. Probably better not.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Sir Lenny Henry says people need Red Nose Day now more than ever.
The 63-year-old comedian – best known for co-founding charity Comic Relief – has insisted the “familiarity” of Red Nose Day, which takes place on Friday 18th March, is vital amid the coronavirus pandemic when people still aren’t seeing family members.
He told ‘BBC Breakfast’: “When everybody is not seeing their mums and dads and their grans, when everybody is struggling because of the pandemic.
“The fact that there is something that they can plug into, that’s familiar, that has people they know, that has heart and love and comedy at its core we all love to watch and to laugh.”
Red Nose Day – founded in 1988 – is the annual fundraising campaign set up by non-profit organisation Comic Relief.
Its mission is to end child poverty by raising money to fund programs in order to help keep children safe, healthy and educated.
Lenny added: “It comically provides a space where we can gather together and watch things and go, ‘Well actually things aren’t so bad I’m going to help out with that.’
“On the night, for me, it’s just the joy of watching the comical pantomime, or those guys singing opera where they’ve never sang it before.
“All of these things are extraordinary to me, makes me want to help out, makes me want to give and that for me is what Comic Relief has always been about.”
Lenny, who was knighted for his work as the charity’s trustee, is touched by people’s generosity in times of hardship and says it’s something we should truly be proud of.
He said: “Moments of true sincerity where you are moved to do something that you normally wouldn’t do, like reach into your pockets and give £1, £2, £3, £4 or £5, that’s always been the case.
“And I think the general public’s generosity in times of hardship when they see somebody that is worse off than themselves, they just want to help.
“They help in places like this and the third world, too, and it’s something that we should be proud of.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Dermot O’Leary has been giving Oti Mabuse some tips about becoming a TV presenter.
The ‘This Morning’ host is said to have been helping the ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ pro dancer out ahead of her prime-time presenting debut on musical matchmaking show ‘Romeo & Duet’.
A TV source said: “Oti and Dermot have struck up a great friendship.
“He’s always keen to help out aspiring presenters and has been given Oti some vital pointers. All of which have been greatly received.”
Dermot’s handy hints are said to have given Oti a “perfect boost” before she fronts ‘Romeo & Duet’.
The source added to The Sun newspaper’s TV Biz column: “It’s given her the perfect boost ahead of her debut hosting gig.”
Just this week, Oti admitted it’s “not for [her]” to say if she will return for the next series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
Asked if she would be “gutted” if she “didn’t have time” for ‘Strictly’ this year, Oti replied: “Everybody keeps asking me. It’s not for me to say.
“‘Strictly’ is such a big machine and no one is bigger than that show. To touch anything around ‘Strictly’ is such an honour and it will always be who I am. For everyone who’s on it and part of it on and off screen, we all truly love it.”
Earlier this month, Oti admitted she “can’t wait to get started” on the musical matchmaking series, in which single love seekers will stand on a balcony as they are serenaded by potential love matches that they can hear, but cannot see.
Oti said: “I’m so excited to be part of ‘Romeo & Duet’.
“It’s always been a dream of mine to host so this is a real pinch me moment, and it’s a blessing for me to finally be able to share this news.
“I honestly can’t wait to get started! It’s about love with a little bit of a twist and showcase of talent, it’s fresh and fun, and I hope everyone’s going to love it as much as I do.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Joel Dommett and his wife Hannah Cooper are keen to try for a baby in “a couple of years or so”, but not before they’ve attempted to take on numerous “mad and exciting” weekly activities this year.
The ‘Masked Singer’ host and his significant other would love to become parents in the near future, but they are currently busy working on a new podcast in which they will take part in a different challenge each week and then speak about how it went in the following episode.
He said: “My big thing this year is I want to work more with Hannah, and so we decided to set up a podcast, and it’s called ‘Never Have I Ever’.
“So the idea is that basically we are going to start trying to have kids in the next couple of years or so. And we thought we should probably do as many things as possible before we have children or try to have children.
“The premise is that we get three suggestions, one from a producer, one from a listener and one from me and Hannah of activities to try.
“And then we decide on one activity per week and then we discuss it on the next episode of how it went. So we just basically are figuring out a new hobby for all of us.”
Joel admitted he is keen to try out different activities before he becomes a dad, because it’ll be “much harder to do things” after welcoming a little one into the world.
He added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: “So I’m excited, man. We have just started recording and I think it’s going to be really fun.
“I’m fully aware that your life isn’t over when you have kids, but it’s much harder to do things. So we are just like, ‘Let’s just do as many things as we can from the banal to the mad and exciting’.”
Last year, Joel admitted he thinks ‘The Masked Singer’ has “changed the landscape of Saturday night TV”.
The 36-year-old star said: “It’s not just a success, it’s a cultural reference, which I think is the dream – to become a show everyone talks about.
“I think it’s changed the landscape of Saturday night TV.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Lucy Pargeter fears her ‘Emmerdale’ character Chas Dingle could be killed off after losing the Woolpack pub.
The 44-year-old star admitted her “heart sank” when she found out Chas would no longer be in charge of the fictional boozer, and the news made her feel “even more insecure” about her job.
She said: “It’s bizarre. It’s fictional, I don’t really own a pub, but that bar is like my second home and when I found out I no longer owned it, my heart sank.
It was upsetting and unsettling, not only for my character, but for me too.
“I wondered, ‘Well, what’s my role in the village now? What else can I do?’
“It was gutting and made me feel even more insecure about my job.”
Former ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ star Lucy – who has played Chas for 20 years – constantly worries if she is “good enough” to be a part of the cast.
She said: “Every year I wonder if I’m still good enough to be on the show. And it’s not just when my contract is up for renewal – I worry through the year.
“If there’s a serial killer on the loose, you think, ‘Is it my time to go?’ ”
And those fears increase when there is a major milestone coming up for the soap, like the show’s 50th birthday this October.
She added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: “It’s always unnerving when we’ve got big storylines coming up, or events like the 50th anniversary this year.
“I immediately think, ‘Oh God, they’re going to have to do something big for the 50th. Do they need to kill off a long-standing character in a spectacular way? Is that my exit?’ ”
Lucy previously revealed her Dales co-star Dominic Brunt (Paddy Kirk) is her “sounding board”.
She said: “Dom is my sounding board. When we get on set he has me battering his ears for about half an hour with what I’ve had to go through before I’ve come into work.
“He’s like that, ‘Oh, oh, oh.’ ”

OHMYGOSSIP — Malin Andersson has given birth.
The former ‘Love Island’ star and her boyfriend Jared welcomed a daughter into the world last Friday (28.01.22) on her due date, and the couple are “completely in love” with their new arrival.
A spokesperson for Malin told MailOnline: “We are super excited to share that Malin gave birth to a healthy baby girl last Friday 28th January on her due date.
“She and her partner are completely in love and are taking this time as a family to enjoy the baby bubble but she cant wait to share more with everyone soon.”
Last month, Malin admitted she felt nervous as she approached 36 weeks of pregnancy, three years after the tragic loss of her daughter Consy, who was born seven weeks premature.
The 29-year-old star – who announced last August that she was expecting – wrote: “I haven’t posted on here for almost a week – reason being my heart is so full. I’ve had the most magical Christmas, I don’t think I’ve had one like this since my mum was around. I didn’t wanna use my phone or even look at it, I just wanted to live in the moment.
“I hit 36 weeks on Friday & even though I’m becoming more slower with less energy (and she’s dropped, LOADS!) – I couldn’t be more content.
“Her due date is approaching.. and so are my nerves. Any advice for the final weeks of pregnancy guys?? HELP. (sic)”
A week beforehand, Malin posted a heartfelt tribute to her daughter, who was named after her late mother, on what would have been her third birthday.
She wrote: “Happy Birthday my Angel. You would have been 3 years old today! That is crazy. So much has changed in the 3 years since you’ve been gone.
“You’ve released me from something toxic, you’ve evolved me and you’ve shown me how to be strong. You gave me the tools to survive when you didn’t. Your presence is always near and I feel you all the time.
“I wouldn’t be the woman today if I didn’t have you. You’ll always be a big sister. Keep flying high, Consy (sic).”
