Binky Felstead: I turned ‘psycho’ over Alex


Binky Felstead admits she turned into a "psycho" while trying to keep tabs on cheating ex-boyfriend Alex Mytton.
The 'Made In Chelsea' star banned the love rat from drinking as she attempted to keep their relationship alive, but she admits that only resulted in her driving herself "crazy" and she has now dumped him for good.
She said: "I took him back and then I tried everything to be happy with him because I didn't want to feel any regret.
"But I imposed all these rules on him, like the 'no drinking'.
"One night he went out drinking with his friends and I just went ballistic because that was one of the rules. It wasn't me. I wasn't happy.
"I felt a bit like a psycho. All his friends thought I was an idiot. He admitted he had gone drinking but he told me, 'Don't worry, I've been talking about you all night'.
"You just drive yourself crazy, and I knew it had to end. I loved him but I love me more."
Binky's bid to keep her and Alex's romance going resulted in her driving some of her friends away as she invested all her time in him, but the brunette star made up with good friend Cheska Hull on last night's (10.08.14) 'Made In Chelsea: New York'.
Eagle-eyed viewers of the spin-off programme - which is shot a few weeks in advance - will have seen Alex turn up in the Big Apple for showdown talks with Binky in preview clips for next week's show - but he clearly didn't make much of an impact.
She added to The Sun newspaper: "I wasn't happy for a long time. I found myself crying most days.
"But I had invested in him and he was keeping me really close to him so I couldn't really hear anyone else's opinion.
"I didn't really want to hear anything else bad, either."

DOI’s Brianne Delcourt set for I’m A Celebrity


Brianne Delcourt is set to sign up for 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' to get over her boyfriend Matt Lapinskas.
The 'Dancing On Ice' star - who claims the former 'EastEnders' actor has cheated on her with dancer Camilla Rowland - is being lined up to appear in the ITV reality show's upcoming series with bosses said to be "very keen" on the outspoken beauty.
A source close to the skater said: "Her name was mentioned to ITV and they liked the idea of having her on the show this year.
"They seemed very keen. And she has made no secret of the fact she'd love to go into the jungle. So watch this space."
'I'm A Celebrity' bosses are said to be excited about the prospect of seeing the "fearless" blonde beauty in the Australian jungle later this year.
The source added to The Sun newspaper: "She is a real pocket rocket, she always speaks her mind and is fearless -- so she'd be a great signing for them."
Brianne hit out at Matt yesterday (10.08.14), admitting she feels "betrayed" by the actor - who played Anthony Moon in the BBC One soap - after dancer Camilla was photographed leaving the couple's home when she was visiting family in Canada.
She told the Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Matt has totally betrayed me.
"He's been nasty and he's lied, when all I've done for the last two years is try to help and protect him."
Should Brianne star in the upcoming 'I'm A Celebrity' series then she looks set to rub shoulders with TV life coaches Nik and Eva Speakman, who were recently linked with the show.
What's more, they could be joined by N-Dubz singer Tulisa, who has been heavily backed to appear in the jungle.
Earlier this month, bookmakers William Hill priced Tulisa at very short odds of 1/3 for her to head Down Under later this year.
William Hill spokesman Rupert Adams said: "All the money has been for Tulisa to go to the Jungle rather than the Big Brother house - perhaps unsurprisingly we have not seen a penny for a Strictly appearance!"

Great British Bake Off rocked by sugar paste cheat


'Great British Bake Off' is set to be rocked by a cheat this week.
The BBC One baking show will be thrown into turmoil when one of the contestants blatantly fails to stick to the rules by bringing in some shop-bought icing to decorate their 3D biscuits, despite being told everything must be homemade.
Before the challenge, Mary Berry tells the contestants: "We don't want to see anything bought in. We want it all homemade."
But eagle-eyed Mary and fellow judge Paul Hollywood spot something unsavoury about one contestant's fondant and challenge them, leaving the cheat with no option but to admit they didn't make the product themselves.
Speaking to hosts Sue Perkins, and Mel Giedroyc, a disappointed Paul says: "This is an issue.
"They used bought in sugar paste.
"If they had made it then I would have been more impressed."
This comes after Mary previously admitted both she and Paul cheat when it comes to pastry as they both often opt for a ready-made version of the product because making it from scratch takes too long.
She previously said: "Seriously I wouldn't dream of making filo pastry because it would take me a long time.
"And Paul doesn't make it either. It's very thin. I made it at college and know the principles."
'Great British Bake Off' airs on Wednesday (13.08.14) at 8pm on BBC One.

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini blasts Louis Walsh


Cheryl Fernandez-Versini has branded Louis Walsh "50 faced".
The 'Crazy Stupid Love' singer hit out at her former manager during a huge audience at the 'X Factor' boot camp auditions in Wembley when he advised a hopeful to work on his face after he pulled a series of bizarre expressions during his performance.
Cheryl retorted: "Work on your face."
Louis replied: "Yeah, but I have only got one".
Cheryl - who refuses to sit next to the Irishman on the panel - then hit back: "And the 50 others".
Meanwhile, fellow judge Mel B cried twice as she struggled to narrow down the hopefuls in her Boys category to the six who will compete at judges' houses.
It was reported yesterday (10.08.14) that while Mel will care for the boys, Louis has been handed the Groups, Simon the Over 25s and Cheryl was thrilled to learn she will mentor the Girls.
A source said: "Cheryl was thrilled. She's been teasing Simon non-stop since ­saying he may as well quit now ­because there's no way he will win.
"Everyone knows he's not happy. The over-25s are stronger this year than previous years but it is still the category none of the judges wanted."

Ricky Rayment wants to move in with Jess Wright


Ricky Rayment wants to move in with Jess Wright.
The 'Only Way is Essex' star is keen to set up home with his girlfriend, despite recently admitting on the show that he had doubts over the living arrangements.
He told BANG Showbiz: "We're together pretty much every night anyway, whether it's at her house or my house. I'm going to put my house up for sale as soon as, so we can look for a house to buy together."
However, the move may not be happening as quickly as Jess, 28, may like though as still needs to sell his current house before they can buy a property together.
He explained: "I've got to sell mine before I can move out, so it's just getting it up to scratch with a lick of paint on the walls and putting it on the market.
"Then we'll crack on looking for a house that we want to have together."
Meanwhile, the 23-year-old hunk is looking forward to filming the 13th series of the ITV2 reality TV show next month and can't wait for viewers to see their romance blossom over the next few months.
Speaking ahead of a skydive to raise money for The Cure Parkinson's Trust, he confirmed: "We start filming, I believe, in the middle of September so it will probably air at the end of September."
Ricky is set to do a skydive to raise money for Cure Parkinson's, which is a registered charity in England, Wales and Scotland, on August 17. To sponsor him visit: http://www.justgiving.com/rickyrayment

Emily Barrington to star in US drama


Emily Barrington is to star in new US period drama 'Sons of Liberty.'
The show - which is to air on the American History Channel - marks a major shift from her role in the movie 'The Inbetweeners 2', but Emily insists she's thoroughly enjoying the experience.
Speaking at the world premiere of the film in London, Emily told BANG Showbiz: "It's completely different. It's set in the 10 years leading up to the American revolution, so I'm playing an American in the show. It's all big, you know, 25 skirts, 10 corsets, massive hats, it's a completely different experience to 'The Inbetweeners' all together but I'm really enjoying it."
Despite the sophisticated nature of her latest role, Emily admits she's also a fan of the puerile humour of 'The Inbetweeners' and says she would have watched the film even if she hadn't have landed a part in it.
She explained: "I was a massive fan - I loved the last film [The 'Inbetweeners' in 2011]. I know for a fact that if I wasn't in it, I'd be going to see it, so I'm very glad that I am among the first people to see it!"

Brianne Delcourt feels betrayed by cheating Matt Lapinskas


Brianne Delcourt feels "betrayed" by her cheating boyfriend Matt Lapinskas.
The 'Dancing on Ice' star was visiting her family in Canada when dancer Camilla Rowland was photographed leaving Matt and Brianne's home.
Brianne told 'The Sun on Sunday': "Matt has totally betrayed me.
"He's been nasty and he's lied, when all I've done for the last two years is try to help and protect him."
Brianne also revealed that Matt - who played Anthony Moon in 'Eastenders' - started dating her before he finished with his co-star Shona McGarty.
She said: "He pursued me behind Shona's back. He was always very flirty with me, telling me he wasn't happy and that he didn't love her. I shouldn't have let myself go there.
"Lots of people warned me away, but I didn't listen to them.
"I've stood by him and lied for him about when we got together as I loved him and I didn't want to hurt Shona."
The 33-year-old professional skater - who was dating Matt since the pair came second in the 2013 series of 'Dancing On Ice' - has insisted she wants nothing more to do with him.
She explained: "He said he wanted to marry me and have kids. But a month later he is caught half-dressed at our house with another girl.
"That's the real Matt, and it's just shameful ... I don't want to speak to him ever again, and I'm not lying for him anymore."

Mario Falcone apologises for taking drugs.


Mario Falcone has apologised for taking drugs.
The 26-year-old 'The Only Way Is Essex' star was filmed allegedly taking cocaine in a friend's kitchen earlier this year.
He told 'The Sun on Sunday': "I would like to publicly apologise to my loyal family and friends, all of my co-stars on TOWIE, to ITV and most importantly to all of the fans."
Mario - who was suspended from the ITV2 show amidst the allegations - has revealed he has used his time off screen to get professional help.
He said: "After a few personal issues, I went off the rails.
"I have been seeking professional assistance and am now fit and well."
Meanwhile, Mario has admitted he is keen to return to the popular show.
He said: "I hope that the producers and ITV will see my genuine remorse and consider allowing me to return to the show."
Previously, the star admitted he was "gutted" not to have been involved in the show's twelfth series. After the finale aired last week, he tweeted: "How was Towie? Gutted I couldn't be a part of this series but congratulations to the rest of the cast on completing series 12 x. [sic]"

Davina McCall is self-conscious on TV


Davina McCall gets body-conscious watching herself on TV.
The 46-year-old presenter - who fronts 'Got To Dance' on Sky1 - is known for her enviable physique, but admits she still suffers from the occasional insecurity.
She explained to OK! magazine: "On 'Long Lost Family', they filmed me from behind and I look at my bum and go, 'Good God - it's just so wide!' But I've got to say a big thank you to Kim Kardashian because she's made the bottom a hallowed thing. I'm so happy that my big bottom doesn't look that big anymore."
Davina ran, cycled and swam 500 miles from Edinburgh to London for Sport Relief in February and recently admitted she and husband Matthew Robertson were in a "tough place" in the lead up to her challenge.
She said previously: "We had a really difficult six months. Matthew's dad was ill, I was doing the challenge and he'd hurt his shoulder."
She added: "When you're in your twenties and you have a tough six months then that's a break up. But when you're married it's nothing.
"You always have to think when you are in a relationship that if you have a tough six months then it's nothing in the grand scheme of things."
