Zoe Ball struggles with her shopping trolley during windswept trip the supermarket in Brighton

Daily Mail​2 days ago

Zoe Ball was left struggling with her trolley as she took a trip to the supermarket in windy Brighton on Monday.
The Radio 2 DJ, 54, tried desperately to stop her shopping from rolling away after stocking up on essentials as plants ready for summer.
Zoe cut a low key figure on the outing in a pink hoodie which she teamed with jeans and a pair of comfy trainers.
The TV personality also sported aviator glasses and gold earrings as she was spotted putting her purchases in the boot of her car.
Zoe sold her £2M country home last year and moved to a townhouse between Brighton and Hove, close to ex-husband DJ Norman Cook, the father of her two children, from whom she separated in 2016.

Together the former couple, who divorced in 2020, share son Woody, 24, and 14-year-old daughter Nelly.
Last week Zoe revealed she was suffering from a new health condition, shortly after after making her Radio 2 comeback.
She gave her listeners an update on her wellbeing as she spoke on her show and revealed she has been diagnosed with bursitis.
Bursitis is when the fluid-filled sacs (bursa) that cushion the joints have become painful and swollen.
It comes after last year she revealed she had been battling another painful health condition - TMJ (temporomandibular joint) - after announcing her departure from her Breakfast Show host role.
At the time she said she was quitting her breakfast show to 'focus on family' and then also had to face the health condition which causes bad headaches.
Speaking about her bursitis this weekend on her show she said: 'Yes, it's come to that. Fifty-four and I got bursitis.'
Despite the pain she has still been training with her personal coach, Seth, in a bid to improve her strength.
'Thank you to Seth,' she said on the show. 'I found out I've got a… what is it? A rating of… was it a four or five on the fitness level?
'I was quite impressed with myself - out of, I think it's nine or ten. You've gotta start somewhere, haven't you?'.
It comes after Zoe returned to her new Saturday afternoon show on BBC Radio 2 in early May after previously taking a step back to focus on time with her family.
The star stepped down from her breakfast show in December to 'focus on her family,' bidding farewell to her £950,000 salary.
Reconnecting with her listeners she announced: 'Hello it's me, oh it's lovely to be back on a Saturday.
'This is where it all began for me back when I used to sweep up and make the teas.'
Happy to see the star's return, a viewer wrote: 'Great to have you back, Saturday afternoon is much better than having to wake up early.'
She proceeded to read out some other well wishes she then added: 'It is lovely to be here thanks for all your messages'.
After six years at the helm, Zoe handed her BBC Radio 2 breakfast show over to Scott Mills after stepping down to 'focus on family' just months after her mother Julia's death in April.
Then in February, Radio 2 officially announced programme changes, including a new weekly show with Zoe (1-3pm on Saturdays).
She will also be hosting two specials, including a BBC TV show celebrating Elaine Paige's 60-year career in showbusiness.
Helen Thomas, Head of Radio 2, said at the time: 'Zoe is one of the UK's most loved presenters, so I'm thrilled to announce that she has a new home on Radio 2 on Saturday lunchtimes.
'Plus she'll be hosting various specials for us throughout the year.'
What is bursitis?
Bursitis is when the fluid-filled sacs (bursa) that cushion the joints have become painful and swollen (inflamed).
It can usually be treated at home and should go away in a few weeks.
You might have bursitis if 1 of your joints is:
painful – usually a dull, achy pain
tender or warmer than surrounding skin
swollen
more painful when you move it or press on it
The area may also be red. This can be harder to see on brown or black skin.
Bursitis can affect any joint, but it's most common in the shoulders, hips, elbows or knees.

EXCLUSIVE Ncuti Gatwa spoke at pro-Palestine rally outside Parliament just days after sudden on-screen exit as Doctor Who

As the BBC 's Doctor Who, Ncuti Gatwa came under fire when he mysteriously pulled out of his Eurovision hosting duties moments after Israel qualified last month. Now it can be revealed that three days after the actor departed Doctor Who, he spoke at a pro-Palestine demonstration outside parliament. On 3 June, the actor, 32, stood in front of a banner reading ' Gaza: Actions Not Words' and delivered a speech to hundreds of people at the Westminster event, organised by Choose Love – a charity that this week supported Greta Thunberg 's 'selfie yacht' trip to Gaza. Gatwa had withdrawn from his role as a Eurovision Grand Final spokesman just 18 days before his speech at the rally. It has prompted renewed speculation as to his motivation for pulling out of the role and whether the BBC was aware that he would do so if Israel qualified. He had been due to announce the UK jury's points during the live broadcast but was replaced at short notice by singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor, 46. The BBC made the change public only two minutes after Israel qualified for the final – prompting speculation that his withdrawal was a protest. The broadcaster cited 'unforeseen circumstances' as the reason. The timing raised eyebrows, as Israel's contestant, Yuval Raphael – a survivor of the October 7 Nova music festival attack – secured her place in the final that same evening. Gatwa has previously expressed support for the Palestinian cause on social media, sharing images of 'Free Palestine' graffiti and promoting fundraising campaigns. The Rwanda-born, Scotland-raised actor made history as the first Black actor to lead Doctor Who, taking on the role of the Fifteenth Doctor in 2023. However, his tenure ended after just two series, making him the second shortest-serving Doctor in the show's history – only Christopher Eccleston's single-series run was shorter. Gatwa's departure was announced in May 2025, when his character regenerated into Rose Tyler played by Billie Piper, 42, ending his 18-month stint in the Tardis. One attendee at the Westminster rally told the Mail: 'He actually read out the names of deceased Palestinian children from his mobile. 'Ncuti appears unaware that, despite his support for Palestine, he could face serious risks in parts of the Middle East. Given the timing – coming so soon after the Eurovision controversy and his abrupt departure from Doctor Who – his appearance may reflect a belief that his position at the BBC had become untenable.' He was joined at the rally by comedian Alexei Sayle and his former Doctor Who co-star Varada Sethu. Sethu, 33, who played companion Belinda Chandra in Doctor Who, who left the sci-fi show at the time as Gatwa, also spoke at the rally.

Love Island fans furious as huge part of show ‘goes missing' – as shock new couple emerge with secret snog

LOVE Island fans have been left furious after a huge part of the show went missing on tonight's episode. It was another drama-packed edition of the ITV2 dating series with this year's Islanders wasting no time in stirring up trouble with one another. 4 Snogs were being dished out left, right and centre with plenty of couple-swapping on the horizon. However, fans were left more irritated after an iconic feature was pulled from the episode. As the show ended on a Hideaway cliffhanger with Blu's shock snog with Shakira, fans were left on the edges of their seats hoping for a preview of the fallout. But the usual 'tomorrow night' preview was scrapped and the programme instead cut straight to the end credits. Narrator Iain Stirling has become known for his teased catchphrase but fans were not treated to that delight this evening. It left viewers wanting more as they raced to X - formerly Twitter - to share their annoyance. Reacting in disappointment, one fan said: "I hate when they don't give us a tomorrow night." A third wrote: "Erm?!!! Where's the tomorrow night preview ??? "Don't Introduce us to a vibe you cannot maintain pls." Love Island viewers horrified as bombshell makes 'disgusting' sex revelation Someone else said: "What no tomorrow night?? Kmt." It comes as fans were left discussing the eight-year age gap between the show's newest couple, Harry and Shakira. Things got rather steamy between the two but viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on the fact Shakira is 22 while Harry is 30. One wrote: 'Shakira is 22??? Get her away from Harry and his 30 year old a** immediately!!' Someone else said: 'I just deeped the age gap with Shakira and Harry…' And another commented: 'Harry and Shakira look good together but he is 30.' 4 4
