Peter Andre shows true colours over Alison Hammond's 13-stone weight loss
In his exclusive OK! column this week, Peter Andre weighs on the ongoing debates around the so-called weight-loss injections, which have resulted in a number of famous faces shrinking before our eyes. He also reveals what new driver Princess Andre is like behind the wheel of a car - after she passed her driving test on her fifth attempt, and why he isn't giving up on Love Island just yet...
Princess has finally passed her driving test – I'm really proud of her. She kept telling me she failed four times. But you know what they say – or maybe don't say! – 'The fifth time's a charm.' As I said to her, it's actually better that it's taken awhile for her to pass because at least she knows now that she genuinely deserves to pass and she can feel confident on the roads. I went in the car with her the other day and she was actually really good.
Alison Hammond is looking amazing and she's spoken about not using weight-loss jabs. She obviously feels fantastic and I don't think it's anyone else's business when it comes to the injections – we shouldn't force people into discussing it. I don't know why we think everyone must say what they did or didn't do. Alison is a good friend who has put the work in and done it the hard way, which is impressive. But I'd never judge anyone for taking the injections – it's none of my business.
I read that Love Island : All Stars winners Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman have split up and a lot of people are questioning whether the show is a joke at this point and whether someone can seriously find love in the villa. But look at other similar shows like Married At First Sight – most couples on there also don't end up lasting. Love Island has had great success stories such as Cara De La Hoyde and Nathan Massey from2016 and 2017's Camilla Thurlow and Jamie Jewitt – and also MAFS has had some success stories.
I'm not embarrassed to admit I really enjoy a night in with Emily watching a romcom. Pretty Woman came out 35 years ago and it's still one of my favourite films – it's such a classic. At the time, every man wanted to be Richard Gere and every woman wanted to be Julia Roberts. It was the love story of its time – we all imagined ourselves going to the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel to recreate that piano scene.
I saw that a 34-year-old called Rosemary Coogan could become the first Briton to walk on the moon and rightfully so. As a man with a lot of great and very strongwomen in his life, I'm all for it!I know there are the conspiracy theorists who say nobody has ever actually done it, but I'm not one of them – everyone is entitled to their opinion though. I think the more we can learn and experience, the better.

Love Island's Harry Cooksley: Everything to know about the 2025 contestant - age, job, Instagram & latest news
Season 12 of Love Island is currently underway, and it's all happening in the villa. One of the contestants who is causing a little bit of tension right now is semi-professional footballer, gold trader and model Harry Cooksley. Harry was picked by Shakira Khan (who currently has about five guys interested in her, including new boy Shea Mannings) after Toni Laites stole Ben Holbrough from her and put her at risk of going home. Harry seemed very pleased that he'd been picked, but on Wednesday night's episode, he got a telling off from Shakira after the girls noticed that he was rubbing both hers and Helena's legs during the game of dares. As Love Island continues, read on for everything you need to know about Harry, including what his life is like outside of the show. BTW, Harry is England footballer Declan Rice's body double! Job: Gold trader, semi-professional footballer and model Lives: Guildford Harry Cooksley is one of the contestants on this year's Love Island. He was part of the starting line-up and was originally in a couple with Sophie Lee, before she was dumped from the villa. Outside of the villa, Harry works as a gold trader, semi-professional footballer and model, particularly as England footballer Declan Rice's body double. When asked what his claim to fame is, Harry said ahead of the show: "I'm the body double for Declan Rice. So when he does a shoot, any body close ups will actually be me. You'll never see my face, but you'll see my shoulder or chest, that kind of thing." Harry is 30-years-old, and the oldest Islander on season 12 so far. Shakira said she chose Harry because of his age and thought that he might be mature, but after he was spotted rubbing both her and Helena's legs, she's not too sure anymore. He is. You can follow Harry at harrycooksley8, where he currently has just over 15k followers - a number that's sure to grow following his Love Island stint. Harry is currently in a couple with Shakira Khan, but how long they'll stay in this couple remains to be seen. He's also been getting to know Helena Ford, and was previously in a couple with Sophie Lee before she was dumped. Harry currently plays for Farnham Town as a midfielder. He joined from Hartley Witney in May 2023. Other previous clubs include Aldershot Town, Farnborough and a stint in Austria for FC Pinzgau. On Farnham Town's official website, Harry's player profile reads: "Cooksley is a midfield maestro, known for his sensational ball-playing abilities. The midfielder joined from Hartley Wintney in May 2023 having finished the campaign playing at Step Three. "The orchestrator whips in a mean dead ball and is the designated penalty taker at the club." Love Island airs on ITV2 at 9pm on weekdays and Sundays.

Love Island's Shea Mannings: His age, Instagram, job and more
The bombshells are officially bombshelling. Last night's Love Island [11 June] saw not one, but two new Islanders enter the Villa, ready to shake things up: introducing Shea Mannings and Remell Mullins. The pair entered the Villa towards the end of the episode and were given some alone time with the girls to quiz them on what was happening with their various connections. The boys then joined the group and they all played a number of cheeky dares. And while it's not 100 per cent clear who Shea is interested in yet, it's safe to say the whole of X [formerly known as Twitter] are either hoping he'll couple up with Alima, or they can keep him for themselves. So when you're over your thirsting for Shea (we understand it could take a while) then this is everything you need to know about the latest Islander. Shea is 25 years old. Shea is from Bristol. Shea's nine to five is working as a scaffolder. As mentioned on the show during 11th June's episode Shea also plays football semi-professionally. According to OK! it appears Shea's most recent team he played for were Swindon Supermarine FC, but he also played for these teams in teh past too: "Bristol Manor Farm, Roman Glass St George, Ashton & Backwell, Larkhall Athletic, Metropolitan Police, Paulton Rovers, and Melksham Town." Yes! Before heading into the Villa, Shea revealed he has a young son from a previous relationship, whom he will take into consideration when looking to date any of the women. "I have a little boy, so I'll be taking him into consideration with who I couple up with, too," he said. When it comes to coupling up Shea kept his cards very close to his chest during his first episode, however, ultimately he's said he's looking for a woman who is "bubbly and we need to have that initial spark. She needs to have a nice personality - like I think I have - so that we match together." He also mentioned as he's reached the age of 25 he's now looking to settle down and have a more serious relationship, "But I am ready again to look for something more serious. I'm 25 now, so I want to be settling down and have someone always by my side." Ok so despite only just stepping into the Love Island Villa, it appears this isn't Shea's first connection with the world of Love Island. Back in June 2022, Love Island's Ella Barnes liked a number of Shea's photos, however Ella hadn't yet at that time been on the show. She also liked one of photo carousels back in July 2023. And in 2021, last year's Uma Jammeh also liked one of Shea's pictures from when he was playing football. However, now neither of the women follower the Islander. If you want to see even more of Shea outside of Love Island then follow him on Instagram at the handle @ where he has just over 6,000 followers and regularly posts from his footie matches and from his holidays with his mates, which includes trips to Ibiza. And he's also on TikTok too. The Islander's handle is @shea_fit and he mainly posts football content and the odd working out advice video. Want even more Love Island gossip?
