Fearne Cotton has passionate snog with new boyfriend as they fly off on romantic mini-break

FEARNE Cotton kisses her new boyfriend Elliot Hegarty after arriving in Mallorca for a romantic holiday. The couple, who first started dating earlier this year, were seen locking lips in baggage reclaim at Palma airport. 4 Fearne, 43, and Elliot, 53, flew in from London Heathrow and were spotted by a fellow passenger who recognised them. They said: 'Fearne and Elliot were like teenagers in love. 'They were kissing and cuddling while waiting for their bags to come through from the plane. 'It was lovely to see her so happy. Elliot totally doted on her. She's found a lovely man in him.' The Sun first revealed how Fearne was in a relationship with Rivals and Cheaters director Elliot in February. Their romance started after Fearne's marriage to Reef guitarist Jesse Wood ended in December. Friends told The Sun Elliot had left his wife days later on Boxing Day. Two months later the pair were seen kissing and holding hands in London's Soho on a night out with friends. A source said at the time: 'Fearne and Elliot have known each other for a while. When their marriages ended their friendship developed into romance. 'They have been seeing each other since January. 'Her split with Jesse was incredibly difficult but Elliot seems to make her incredibly happy. ' Fearne is now introducing Elliot to friends and they're pleased to see her smiling again.' Fearne and Jesse, who have two children together, wed in 2014 after dating for three years. They announced the end of their marriage in a statement on December 16 last year. Jesse, 48, has since moved on with Made In Chelsea star Gemma Gregory, 39. 4 4 4

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau spotted having dinner together

Justin Trudeau, the former Canadian prime minister, has been spotted dining with the pop star Katy Perry at a restaurant in Montreal, sparking rumours of a romance. Trudeau, 53, and Perry, 40, were filmed deep in conversation at a table for two at Le Violon, a fine-dining spot run by the celebrity chef Danny Smiles. Perry, who recently split from the actor Orlando Bloom, is in Canada for her Lifetimes tour. Trudeau announced his resignation as prime minister in January and was replaced by Mark Carney. According to TMZ, which obtained footage of the encounter, Trudeau had his arm around Perry's waist as they left the restaurant. They were reported to have enjoyed cocktails on Le Violon's terrace after a daytime walk in Montreal's Mount Royal Park. Le Violon confirmed that the pair had dined together, although Smiles told TMZ there was no 'PDA', or public display of affection. Samantha Jin, a communications consultant for Le Violon, told The Canadian Press that Trudeau and Perry spent about two hours at the restaurant and were 'kind and warm' to staff. 'We kind of got the vibe that they were a little more chill,' she said, adding that other diners did not approach them for a photo. 'No visual signs of PDA or anything.' Smiles stopped by Trudeau and Perry's table to say hello, according to Jin, and before they left they went into the kitchen to thank the restaurant's team. Trudeau announced his separation from Sophie Grégoire in August 2023 after 18 years of marriage. They have three children. Trudeau stepped down as prime minister after nine years in office amid widespread discontent with his performance in the job. Carney replaced him as leader of the Liberal Party and managed to win a federal election in April, despite the party trailing in the polls under Trudeau. Perry split from Bloom this year. They got engaged in 2019 and have a daughter. Perry was previously married to Russell Brand. In April she was part of an all-female crew that went to space on a rocket owned by Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin.

Disaster strikes on The Block as frantic teams are ordered to tear apart entire space just hours before Room Reveal

It's only week one on The Block 2025 - but tempers, budgets and bathroom walls are already crumbling. What should have been a final push to the finish line turned into a demolition nightmare when multiple teams were told to rip out their painstakingly laid tiles just hours before judging. The day started with relief for Sonny and Alicia, who kicked off the morning with the rare joy of a completed waterproofing sign-off. But the smiles didn't last long. Foreman Dan spotted a major problem - the glue their tilers were using isn't compliant for waterproofing. It's the kind of rookie error that could tank an entire week's work. House 2's Han and Can were also in the firing line. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The pair were already feeling the pressure with a mammoth tiling job ahead and just one tiler on site - but their spirits were briefly lifted when Scotty Cam and Shelley Craft turned up with a cheeky plant-giveaway challenge. Han was crowned the 'hardest worker' on site, scoring a green boost for House 2's bare courtyard. Across at House 1, Scotty gifted Taz a dessert after his 'vanilla board' gaffe earlier in the week - but the sweet moment was short-lived. Council had just approved their ambitious wine cellar, sending the boys into celebration mode. Sadly, the good vibes didn't last. Site Manager Aidan uncovered the unthinkable - House 3's tiler had used the same slow-drying glue across the entire bathroom. Every. Single. Tile. had to come off. 'You see all your beautiful work up on the walls and they say you've got to tear it down - that was tough,' a visibly gutted Taz said. The same fate hit Sonny and Alicia, whose tilers also used the wrong glue over their waterproofing membrane. Robby and Mat managed to dodge the full disaster, escaping with just a grout redo thanks to their choice of porous ceramic tiles. But for others, it was back to square one.

And as if glue-gate wasn't enough, House 2's grand showpiece - a curved wall draped in delicate finger tiles - literally came crashing down. Only days in, and The Block 2025 is already proving it's not just about building dream homes - it's about surviving the nightmare. The Block continues Sunday at 7pm on Channel Nine.
