Julianne Hough is a ‘deeply different person now’

June 3, 2020 by

Julianne Hough is not the same person she was when she wed Brooks Laich nearly three years ago after first falling for the athlete in late 2013.

A source has told People the change is what led to the couple’s May split.

‘She is a deeply different person than she was when they got married, and she is proud of those differences and changes she’s made and she doesn’t want to go back,’ said an insider close to the Dancing With The Stars judge. ‘He is the man he is, and he shouldn’t change a thing.’

New vibe: Julianne Hough is not the same person she was when she wed Brooks Laich nearly three years ago after first falling for the athlete in late 2013, a source has told People; here she is seen at home in May

No longer a fit: ‘She is a deeply different person than she was when they got married, and she is proud of those differences and changes she’s made and she doesn’t want to go back,’ said an insider close to the Dancing With The Stars judge. Seen in February

Brooks wanted to be there for Hough, but he just could not figure out what would bring her joy.

‘Brooks was determined to make it work, but he was constantly questioning what changes he needed to make for Julianne to be happy,’ said the insider.

‘He was fighting with this for months and it was very hard for him to let go of his marriage.’

When they decided to spend lockdown in different states – she is in LA while he is in Idaho – they had time to think the marriage over.

Hard to say bye: ‘Brooks was determined to make it work, but he was constantly questioning what changes he needed to make for Julianne to be happy,’ said the insider. ‘He was fighting with this for months and it was very hard for him to let go of his marriage.’ Seen in 2019

‘It really took the lockdown and them being separated for two months for him to realize that it is time to let go,’ said a pal of Brooks;.

‘He has been happy living by himself in nature.’

And now the two don’t want to push themselves any longer to make things better.

‘It took them a while to get here, but now they both understand that they shouldn’t spend the rest of their lives together — not as spouses,’ said a source close to the former pro dancer.

‘They are hoping to move forward as deeply loving friends forever who will always be supportive and encouraging of one another.’

They did have THIS in common: Both stars like to share alluring images to Instagram

Another source told Entertainment Tonight: ‘It has taken Julianne and Brooks some time to find the right moment to announce their split.

‘They haven’t been happy together for a long time but needed to come to terms with the fact that their marriage was over.’

Seems like one of the problems was he loved the country and she loved the city.

‘Brooks loves his outdoor life in Idaho, wanted a more traditional marriage and to start a family. Julianne wanted a less traditional marriage, to focus on her career and loves her city life and Hollywood existence,’ said a source.

But they went in with the best hopes: ‘They truly had a loving, romantic relationship, a fairy-tale wedding and believed they would spend the rest of their lives together but within two years, their views of marriage differed tremendously,’ the source added.

She came to fame on Dancing With The Stars: With Carrie Ann Inaba in 2015

And her fame grew: Seen with (l-r) Howie Mandel, Gabrielle Union, Simon Cowell and Terry Crews on America’s Got talent

And now they feel it just makes sense to let go.

‘They have been happier apart than together and realized they had no choice but to go their separate ways. Despite truly loving each other, they just didn’t see eye to eye.’

‘We have lovingly and carefully taken the time we have needed to arrive at our decision to separate,’ Julianne, 31, and Brooks, 36, told People together in May.

‘We share an abundance of love and respect for one another and will continue to lead with our hearts from that place.’

Dearly beloved: Julianne reportedly began dating Brooks near the end of 2013 and they married in July 2017 by the lakeside town of Coeur D’Alene, Idaho (pictured)

The duo noted in their statement: ‘We kindly request your compassion and respect for our privacy moving forward.’

Two days before the separation announcement, Brooks posted ‘THIRST TRAP!’ shirtless photos from Idaho and Julianne commented that they were ‘awesome.’

During an Instagram Live interview with Oprah Magazine last month Julianne said of being in lockdown without Brooks: ‘I don’t feel lonely, but I definitely feel alone.’

Earlier last month amid rumors of marriage trouble with Brooks, Julianne wrote on Insta Stories: ‘Never betray yourself to be loyal to others.’

Amid the lockdown, during an Instagram Live session for her dance-influenced Kinrgy workouts she spilled that she was ‘Releasing all this stagnant energy built up from what’s going on personally and in the world.’

Julianne, who has described herself as ‘not straight,’ was glimpsed in mid-April on a stroll with dashing 38-year-old English actor Ben Barnes who is an old pal of hers.

Meanwhile that month on his How Men Think podcast Brooks gushed that he was having a ‘great’ time in Idaho with his ‘awesome’ husky Koda.

Calling himself an ‘introvert by nature’ he acknowledged: ‘I love having my dog – if it wasn’t for my dog, I’d probably be a little more antsy with the isolation.’

Brooks drew notice in January when he said on How Men Think that he wanted to ‘really explore learning about sexuality’ going forward.

However on a later episode of How Men Think he clarified that he was looking into ‘exploring my sexuality, and by that I don’t mean if I’m gay or straight.’

Brooks explained: ‘I mean like in my sexual relationship, what is my sexuality and what am I craving and what are my desires and what are my wife’s, and like, how can we have this language to feed each other in – and get everything we want and be sexually expressed to the nth degree and everything?’

He also said: ‘When I think of being married and being in my relationship, truthfully at my core, I don’t see any other life for me. Like that’s the life that I choose.’

Julianne reportedly began dating Brooks near the end of 2013 and they married in July 2017 by the lakeside town of Coeur D’Alene, Idaho.

William Shatner, 89, reveals he doesn’t watch Star Trek and hasn’t seen Star Trek: Picard … and admits his run as Captain Kirk is ‘pretty well played out’

By Caitlyn Becker For Dailymail.com

William Shatner doesn’t watch Star Trek.

The 89-year-old actor is famous across the world for his iconic portrayal of Captain Kirk in the sci-fi franchise but admits that he doesn’t like watching himself back on screen.

Discussing his iconic role in a recent interview with The Guardian, Shatner also revealed that he is yet to see the recent CBS all access series Star Trek: Picard, which features Sir Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

USS Enterprise: William Shatner revealed that he doesn’t watch himself as Captain Kirk on Star Trek and is yet to see the recent CBS all access series Star Trek: Picard in a recent interview with The Guardian

William told The Guardian: ‘Patrick Stewart is a great friend of mine, but I haven’t seen Star Trek: Picard. I haven’t watched any Star Trek. I just don’t like watching myself on television.’

William admits that he has been ‘a ferment of creativity’ during lockdown and is working on both music and television projects.

He explained: ‘I’m in a ferment of creativity. I’m making music and dreaming up new shows – I’m trying to sell two or three series to the networks right now. I’m finishing up a blues album that I started before coronavirus hit.

‘At the same time, I’ve been working with a poet and musician in New York. I perform the words on an iPhone and once I email it he writes the accompaniment, so I’ve got another album all ready.’

Shatner – who first played Captain Kirk in the original 1960s TV show and then reprised the role seven times on the big screen – recently ruled out returning to the role, as he feels the character ‘is pretty well played out’.

When asked by a fan if he thinks there might be a Kirk TV series on the way, he tweeted: ‘No. I think Kirk’s story is pretty well played out at this point.’

However, Shatner did admit last year that he would love to be part of a ‘Star Trek’ movie directed by Quentin Tarantino.

No reboot: Shatner – who first played Captain Kirk in the original 1960s TV show and then reprised the role seven times on the big screen – recently ruled out returning to the role, as he feels the character ‘is pretty well played out’

William said: ‘Quentin Tarantino said something in the paper that somebody said to me, that he loved me. And Quentin, I love you.

‘If you’re going to do Star Trek 50 years later, a few pounds heavier, come on. Not a problem! Well, I’d like to do it. Whether I’d be up for it, I don’t know.’

If Star Trek: Picard is any indication, there is still a voracious fanbase for content from the USS Enterprise from fans AKA Trekkies.

Success! CBS All Access premiered a new phase in the franchise with Star Trek: Picard in January and announced later that it set a record for streams on the platform

Season one premiered in January of 2020 on the Eye Network’s streaming platform and CBS announced later that it set a record for streams on the platform.

Critics and viewers alike heaped praise on the modernized franchise and Patrick Stewarts reprisal of his famous role was also critically acclaimed.

Season two of Star Trek: Picard is already in the works with a projected premiere date in late 2020 or early 2021, however that may be pushed due to coronavirus.

Jamie Redknapp and Roman Kemp discussed the ‘carnage’ of working with their famous fathers during an interview on Capital Breakfast on Wednesday.

The former footballer, 46, and the radio DJ, 27, who were chatting about programme Redknapp’s Home Fixture couldn’t resist spilling details about working with football manager Harry Redknapp, 73, and Spandau Ballet rocker Martin Kemp, 58.

Roman said: ‘I love that you’ve got this going – your very first father-son TV project.

Like father, like son: Jamie Redknapp (above with dad Harry) and Roman Kemp discussed the ‘carnage’ of working with their famous fathers during an interview on Capital Breakfast on Wednesday

‘Now Jamie, I’m gonna come to you – being someone that’s worked with my dad on a couple of TV things, I mean, what’s it been like for you working with your old man?’

A delighted Jamie responded about his I’m A Celebrity champion father: ‘He’s great.

‘He’s loose, I must admit, you know, you’ve got to rein him in every now and again. You know what it’s like, mate! But nah, he’s fantastic.

‘He’s got so many amazing stories. The amount of times we’ll talk about someone and he’ll go “I’ve met him, I’ve got a story about him” and he’ll make it funny.

Waxing lyrical: An amused Roman said about working with dad Martin: ‘ Do you know what, it’s the exact same thing with my dad! Having to film with him, it is absolute carnage!’

Oh dear: Jamie, who has joined forces with Harry, 73 for Redknapp’s Home Fixture, said: ‘He’s loose, I must admit, you know, you’ve got to rein him in every now and again’

‘No, it’s brilliant, he’s a joy to work with, but trying to rein him in, trying to make sure we’ve got the direction of where we’re going with an interview – every now and again he just goes rogue on me… But I love him, he’s brilliant, and it’s been nice.

An amused Roman responded: ‘Do you know what, it’s the exact same thing with my dad! Having to film with him, it is absolute carnage! But your dad’s a bit cooler than mine though!’

Jamie responded: ‘Sometimes!’

Earlier this week Roman joked that his famous father Martin ‘used to be a cool dad’ but is now obsessed with gardening.

The father-son duo were guests on The One Show on Tuesday evening ahead of their appearance on Celebrity Gogglebox later this week.

Host Alex Jones began by asking Martin what it was like to have his son back home to film the segment before the lockdown, to which he replied: ‘It was the best thing.

‘When he came home I was able to show him what I have been doing around the garden and just to see him and talk to him face to face rather than digitally was so nice.’

But speaking about his father’s new-found hobbies, Roman himself joked: ‘When I was a kid my dad was always the cool dad like “oh yeah get your mates round, we can watch horror movies, we can watch the football”.

‘But now he is just like “Shirl, shirl, what do you want to watch? Shall we watch something to do with gardening again”.

‘He’s just obsessed, he’s obsessed with gardening.’

She teamed the long-sleeved garment with a pair of matching sweatpants, while going barefoot for the snap taken inside her plush pad.

In an Instagram video, James who recently revealed he’s been sober for five months after tackling a cocaine addiction, seemed in great spirits as he and the self-proclaimed diva, tucked into a takeaway from Chigwell’s Sheesh Restaurant.

The singer couldn’t contain his laughter as his on-off partner joked she was ‘going to cry’ over the delicious food, gushing: ‘I’m literally so happy right now’.

Treating fans to a glimpse of the platter, consisting of barbequed food, a delighted Gemma said: ‘Absolutely buzzing for this Sheesh tonight. Yeah baby!

‘I can’t tell you how good this feels to have a sheesh. My eyes are literally bigger than my belly right now but I don’t know if we can do it right now. I’m literally so happy right now.’

Poking fun at the fashion entrepreneur, the theatre actor said: ‘Gem you sound like you’re going to cry!’

‘I am!’, she admitted. ‘Can you imagine, we’re having a little date in the garden, just wanted to say thank you to Sheesh. James you don’t know how happy I am right now.’

Urging his love to focus on eating the meal instead, the theatre star added: ‘Okay Gem put your phone away now and enjoy it. Alright Gem, come on!’

The pair were in good company as there were joined by Gemma’s mother Joan and her nephew Kenny.

Alright Gem, I hope they’re paying ya!

The Dancing On Ice star elaborated: ‘No, this is just a beautiful moment, where we’re all in the garden having dinner together, it’s just beautiful, it is a very happy day.’

‘I don’t know if I can finish all this but I’m sure going to try’, she added, before Arg chimed: ‘Alright Gem, I hope they’re paying ya!’

Earlier this month, James revealed he finally feels like he is ‘living again’ after battling his addiction, which saw him spend months at a rehab in Thailand.

The TV star admitted he feels like he has done more in five months than he has in years, during an Instagram Live work out with best pal Mark Wright.

His friend, 33, seemed equally pleased to have his friend back as he confessed that he barely heard from Arg when he was using drugs, and ‘struggled to get a hello out of him’.

The Waltham Forest native first spoke about his drug addiction on an edition of This Morning, where he admitted he was finding recovery tough while in lockdown.

‘It’s the original Joan Collins!’ The pair were in good company as there were joined by her mother Joan

‘This is a beautiful moment, his first Sheesh!’ The media personalities were also accompained by Gemma’s nephew Kenny

During his interview, Arg referred to Mark as his ‘guardian angel’ and revealed that he helped to sort the financial side of his rehab.

The reality star spent ten weeks at a Thailand boot camp, after calling Mark for help when he reached rock bottom over Christmas 2019.

Arg explained: ‘Mark is my best friend. He’s always been there through my ups and downs. He has always given me tough love.

‘Throughout the whole of December he was begging me to go into rehab, but I had given up hope and didn’t want to stop.’

Liam Payne and his girlfriend Maya Henry were seen attending the Black Lives Matter protest in London’s Hyde Park on Wednesday.

The One Direction singer, 26, and the Instagram star, 19, held hands as they joined thousands of protesters marching in response to the death of George Floyd, who was killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis last week.

Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, died last Monday after a white police officer knelt on his head for nearly nine minutes in Minneapolis, prompting a wave of protests.

Fellow star John Boyega was also protesting in London while Liam’s bandmate Harry Styles joined a legion of stars protesting in Los Angeles.

A medical examiner’s office on Monday ruled that Floyd’s death was a homicide as they appeared to walk back initial reports that he wasn’t strangled.

The examiner’s findings that the death was a homicide by asphyxiation confirmed the same conclusion of the independent autopsy that was also released on Monday, but there are key differences over the cause.

Chauvin was fired from the Minneapolis police department over the incident, has been charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter.

Floyd’s death roiled the globe and has sparked mass protests against police brutality across the nation – with the rows arriving in London on Wednesday.

On Monday, Liam used his platform to tell his followers: ‘It’s not enough to just say that Black Lives Matter: all of us can and must do more in order to make that statement a reality as soon as possible.

‘Let’s make this ‘new normal’ after Coronavirus one in which Black people are not persecuted for living their daily lives in the same way everyone else is privileged to do so.’

Getting political: Liam used his platform to speak out and condemn racism and injustice in all forms, and urge his followers to ‘be better people’

Throwing his support: John Boyega made his presence known with an impassioned speech

After suggesting ways for people to make a difference, he added: ‘Let me be very clear, injustice comes in many forms around the world: nobody because of race, gender, sexuality, religion or belief, should suffer discrimination.

‘This gives us pause for thought to be better people, and to treat everyone with the respect that they deserve.

‘My condolences to George Floyd’s family and to the many others who have lost loved ones in these tragic circumstance. Again Black Lives Matter. Stay safe and take care.’

Black Lives Matter, which was first founded in 2013 following the acquittal of George Zimmerman and was nationally recognized for its involvement in the Ferguson protests in 2014 has been galvanized once more following the death of Floyd.

Supportive: The couple stood strong with thousands in the capital

Molly shocked fans when she revealed that he was on his way from Russia, in a move that came under fire, as she penned: ‘He was meant to be here on my birthday btw guys but he’s coming from Russia so there were delays etc.’

One wrote: ‘MOLLY MAE’s F***ING DOG IS COMING. From. RUSSIA. THe ignorance, I’m so disgusted… wait Molly Mae is having a puppy shipped to her from Russia?

It comes after Zara and her boyfriend Sam’s sister Louise Thompson were forced to hit out at trolls after posing next to an ice-cream truck in May.

Yum! It comes after Zara and her boyfriend Sam’s sister Louise Thompson were forced to hit out at trolls after posing next to an ice-cream truck in May

After the Love Island alum treated her boyfriend Sam, 27, his sister Louise, 30, and her fiancé Ryan Libbey, 29, to ice-cream, a host of followers flooded the comments section to take issue with the snap.

Among the disgruntled messages were fans insisting Zara does not eat ice-cream due to her lithe frame and false claims that the foursome – who live together – are flouting social distancing rules amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Both Louise and Zara have been documenting their time in lockdown in forensic detail, as they pass the time amid quarantine in their shared Fulham home.

As the latter has been detailing her weight loss and fitness journey throughout, including by setting up her own fitness page, one of her 1.4million followers penned: ‘There’s no way Zara eats ice cream like that and looks as amazing as she does’.

Despite the apparent kind-hearted nature of the message, Louise appeared to take umbrage with the remark and responded about their healthy eating.

Tough times: After Zara treated her boyfriend Sam, 27, his sister Louise, 30, and her beau Ryan Libbey, 29, to ice-cream, a host of followers flooded the comments section to take issue with the snap

Responding: She responded: ‘I assure you you are wrong ! We both eat healthy balanced diets and munch on treats when we fancy! Nothing wrong with a bit of ice cream in the sun’

Seemingly taking issue with Louise’s comment, a follower penned: ‘oooh someone’s touchy it was not a nasty comment I was actually complimenting her duh’.

Elsewhere, debates raged about whether the group were breaking social distancing by gathering together – leading to Zara reiterating their living arrangement.

Zara appeared exhausted by her need to explain again, as she penned: ‘We live together. We have done since 23rd March. We have put this on out social media HUNDREDS of times. We chose to isolate together since day one.’

Prior to her ice-cream treat, Zara, who has been documented her staggering two stone weight loss journey, showed off her washboard abs as she took to Instagram to tell fans she was going to try intermittent fasting.

She flaunted her tiny waist in a hot pink Nike sports bra in a sexy snap.

The television personality wrote: ‘Good morning!!! Happy Monday! hope everyone has an amazing day. I’m trying intermittent fasting this week. Does anyone else do it? What’s everyone’s thoughts?!’.

Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of fasting and eating. It doesn’t specify which foods you should eat but rather when you eat them.

Lizzie Cundy tees off for a hole-in-one as she hits the golf course

June 3, 2020 by

Lizzie Cundy jumped at the chance to get back on the golf course on Tuesday as the UK’s relaxed lockdown continues.

Seizing the opportunity to knock off some balls, the former-WAG, 52, put on a glamorous display as she took a golf lesson at her local club, Dummer Golf Club in Hampshire.

Coached by the club’s resident pro Steve Wright, Lizzie gave it a few tries before successfully teeing off and landing the ball neatly on the fairway.

The TV personality brought some fun to her golfing ensemble, looking the part in a navy and white playsuit, adorned with a chevron print.

The outfit featured a cross-strap back and a lacy detailing at the midriff, teasing the media star’s tiny waist.

Lizzie wore her feathery bronde locks loosely around her features.

Lizzie left many This Morning viewers in hysterics on Wednesday as she argued with etiquette expert William Hanson about whether hot tubs are tasteful or tacky.

The hilarious discussion saw William brand hot tubs little more than a ‘petri dish of filth,’ while Lizzie – while reclining in her own – insisted they’re nothing more than a bit of fun during lockdown.

Lizzie proudly displayed her tanned physique in a plunging pink swimsuit as she relaxed inside her won hot tub during the debate.

She fiercely defended hot tubs during the discussion by insisting they’re just as clean as a swimming pool and can even provide health benefits for people suffering from arthritis.

She said: ‘You need to get your facts right, it’s so clean, it’s exactly the same as a swimming pool, I’m very lucky to have a garden, we’re going through such uncertain times, we need to stay in her homes so why not have a bit of fun?’

Sensational: Lizzie proudly displayed her tanned physique in a plunging pink swimsuit as she appeared live from her hot tub

Meanwhile William furiously branded the hot tub a ‘petri dish of filth,’ adding: ‘I can’t think of anything worse than sitting in my own grime.’

Host Holly Willoughby jumped at the chance to read out a fact about hot tubs she found on Good Housekeeping, claiming that when ten people are sitting in a hot tub at one time, the water can contain up to a tablespoon of faeces.

William was appropriately disgusted by the fact, saying: ‘It’s not the same of a swimming pool, is usually 10 degrees cooler than a hot tub and actually bacteria grows.’

Savage: She defended the use of hot tubs, while William was quick to remind her: ‘Last time we were on the show you admitted you weed in the shower.’

Reminding Lizzie of one of her more infamous This Morning appearances, William added: ‘Last time we were on the show you admitted you weed in the shower.’

Lizzie had previously admitted on This Morning in 2018 she urinated Anthea Turner’s shower while staying at her house.

The star insisted she’d never urinate in her hot tub as she has a toilet close by, adding: ‘There’s loads of health benefits, it helps arthritis, it is relaxing, you’re like the fun police Will.’

William insisted they are many other things he’d rather do to relax than ‘wade in his own filth,’ and would even ignored a message from a neighbour inviting him to use their hot tub.

Lizzie claimed: ‘We’re allowed six friends in our home, I think neighbours realise there’s going to be a bit more noise in the garden, what do you want to do?

‘Come on we’ve got to socialise a little bit. Prince Harry ordered two hot tubs when he was at school.’

Hilarious: Many viewers couldn’t hide their amusement at the segment, rushing to social media to share their reaction

Many viewers couldn’t hide their amusement at the segment, with one writing: ‘This hot tub debate is hilarious,’ while another tweeted: ‘I dunno who William is, but he is genuinely comedy GENIUS.’

A third also wrote: ‘Hearing the words ‘butt crack’ from the kitchen and finding out it was Holly talking about hot tubs, is perhaps the funniest thing I’ll hear today.’

‘I love this Lizzie on #ThisMorning,’ one viewer tweeted, with another also writing: ‘I am LIVING for @williamhanson on #ThisMorning ”I’d rather roll around in my own mud, I’d probably be cleaner.”’

It seemed a majority of the nation were on Lizzie’s side during the debate, as hosts Holly and Phillip Schofield featured many snaps from viewers displaying their own hot tubs on social media.
