Susanna Reid halts Good Morning Britain as co-star makes OnlyFans admission
Ed Balls was stunned when he learned that one guest made a six-figure salary on OnlyFans. Good Morning Britain 's Susanna Reid had to step into a discussion live on TV to remind her co-stars that they were still on air. The chat on Monday morning's show turned to how much content creators on OnlyFans can make, leaving Ed Balls gobsmacked at the possibilities. Earlier in the programme, British canoeist Kurts Adams Rozentals had appeared alongside the hosts where he revealed he was now making a six-figure salary on OnlyFans, but he had been banned from competing after 'allegations' about his social media posts. Discussing the athlete's change in career, Ed told viewers: 'We are in the wrong jobs!' GMB guest Andrew Pierce then said: 'Ed, are you putting yourself forward as a potential model on OnlyFans?' The Strictly star laughed: 'It's amazing on the internet what you can make money from." He then joked there'd be a 'niche' for Andrew, while Kevin Maguire stepped in with: 'There'll be a fetish stream!' Ed then pointed out that a career on OnlyFans isn't illegal, saying: 'Well, Andrew, when you find out how much money he's making, honestly, you should think about it.' The GB News star hit back: 'I thought about it, Ed, the answer is no!' However, he did have a proposition for Ed, joking: 'Are you suggesting we do it together? Are you blushing, Ed?' Ed was left blushing as Susanna interrupted at where the conversation was going. 'This is going in a whole different direction!' she said. 'Blimey!' Kevin added, as Susanna halted the discussion to remind them: 'We are still on air, guys!' While Ed may be declining a stint on OnlyFans, he previously stunned Susanna with a bizarre bikini confession. In 2023, he revealed he'd once entered a charity swimsuit contest and admitted: 'I've got to say, I looked really good.' Susanna was then left gobsmacked when images of Ed in a mankini aired on GMB. 'Has it been censored?' she joked, before Ed quipped: 'Luckily, you're not showing the bottom half!' 'Is that an AI mock-up?' Susanna added. As the images were shown, Ed admitted that his children had forbidden him from wearing the mankini without boxer shorts, because it was 'too revealing'. 'I'd not shaved or anything,' he confessed. 'For those who say too early… you're not wrong,' Susanna replied. "It's going to be the gift that keeps on giving!' Earlier in the programme, Susanna was praised by viewers for the way she handled a heated interview and 'grilled' the shadow Lord Chancellor and Shadow Secretary of State for Justice Robert Jenrick. He made headlines after a video went viral showing him confronting TFL users for skipping fares, writes Devonshire Live. During the clip, a man on an escalator implies that he's carrying a knife to make Jenrick leave him alone. The politician attempted to focus on the issue at hand, but after the clip was shared on Monday's Good Morning Britain, Susanna put to him the issue of a knife-carrying passenger. Susanne probed him on the fact that he hadn't reported that a person was carrying a knife on the tube to police, Susanna raged: 'Somebody told you that they were carrying a knife on the London Underground and you didn't report it to the police.'

Ed Sheeran accidentally confirms return to Australia as fans brace for another record-breaking tour
Ed Sheeran has accidentally let slip that he'll be returning to Australia in early 2026 - three years after his record breaking tour Down Under. The British hitmaker, 34, made the casual revelation in a TikTok comment this week, setting off a frenzy among fans already preparing for the next stadium spectacular. The tour bombshell was picked up by Nova 96.9 radio host Smallzy who shared the exchange to his Instagram Story with the hilarious caption: 'BRB selling organs to buy concert tickets'. In the now-viral TikTok, a fan asked the singer: 'How does coming back to Australia soon sound to you?' Ed, without skipping a beat, replied: 'Start of 2026'. 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. While no official announcement has been made, Daily Mail Australia reached out to the star's management team - who didn't deny the claim but teased that something major is coming. 'We aren't in the habit of pre-announcing announcements – but there will be news on our plans for 26 later this summer,' a spokesperson said. It comes as Sheeran continues to trek across Europe on his Mathematics Tour, which first kicked off in Dublin in 2022 and is currently selling out stadiums in Madrid and beyond. The multi-platinum artist last performed in Australia in 2023, where he made headlines for smashing attendance records. Since then, the father-of-two has continued to drop new music, including the emotional tracks Azizam and Old Phone, rumoured to be featured on his eighth studio album. With smash hits like Shape of You, Perfect and Photograph each pulling in more than two billion Spotify streams, Sheeran remains one of the most successful artists of his generation. He currently boasts 90 million monthly listeners on the platform, making him the third-most followed artist globally. Over the years, the former busker-turned-global superstar has collaborated with music royalty including Adele, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber and Beyoncé - cementing his place in pop history. It comes after last week Ed shared a series of throwback snaps to Instagram, including a fun selfie with Taylor Swift, while also reflecting on his copyright trial. The star launched a new Instagram account to celebrate his 'emotional' new single Old Phone. The account featured a number of never-before-seen pictures, texts, and lyric notes, and came ahead of the release of his new single on Thursday April 29. Ed was inspired to write the new song when revisiting his old phone during the copyright lawsuit around his hit single Thinking Out Loud. At the time, Ed denied he had ripped off Marvin Gaye's soul classic Let's Get it On for his 2014 hit song, and in 2023 was cleared in court. Explaining the new account, Ed penned in a new Instagram post: 'Put the sound on and have a listen. I got rid of my phone 2015, and moved onto email full time. I just turned my phone off December '15 and that was it. 'When I got sued, the judge ordered me to give up my old devices to the other sides lawyers, to look through messages, emails, voice notes, videos, etc, to see if there was anything on there to help their case. In the process, I switched on my old phone. It comes after last week Ed shared a series of throwback snaps to Instagram while also reflecting on his copyright trial 'The first message was from my friend Jamal Edwards, who had recently passed away. The second was from my ex girlfriend who I hadn't been in contact with for years. The third was a family member I haven't spoken to in a decade. And so on.' Ed shared pictures with pals including Taylor and the late Jamal Edwards, with the musician admitting looking through the phone made him emotional for a number of reasons. Ed continued: 'It felt like a time capsule, a time of life that I was in, and living at that time in 2015. Turning it on really spun me out, I found myself scrolling messages and conversations with people who are no longer here. 'I found myself crying at messages to friends who are now dead, who I won't get to speak to again. I found old photos of me with people I was so close to then, but we've lost touch since. 'The whole experience was such an emotional journey. I wrote the song Old Phone on my own at 2am whilst jet lagged in India finishing the album, and recorded it that morning. It feels like a song that should've been on my debut album, but also a song I couldn't have written until I experienced real life things happening to me.' Speaking on the meaningful new song, Ed added: 'It makes me emotional to sing, I hope it finds some emotion in you too.'

Jeremy Clarkson defends his pub's 'extortionate' £24 pie and tells critics to 'enjoy your chlorine'
Jeremy Clarkson defends his pub's 'extortionate' £24 pie and tells critics to 'enjoy your chlorine' The Clarkson's Farm host has hit back at a customer who complained about the price of a steak pie at his The Farmer's Dog boozer Jeremy Clarkson defended his pies (Image: PA ) Jeremy Clarkson has defended the £24 price tag on his pub's steak pie, telling customers who balk at it to "enjoy your chlorine". The Clarkson's Farm host explained he pays a "premium" for high-quality local beef included in the dish served at his The Farmer's Dog pub, which is featured on the hit Amazon Prime show. He also suggested that those unwilling to try his offering should take their chances on chemical-induced alternatives elsewhere, reports the Daily Star. The former Top Gear host was quick to respond to criticisms over pricing after receiving a pointed message on X stating: "Thought @JeremyClarkson wanted an affordable pub for customers. £24 for pie and veg is a bit much." Clarkson, 65, replied: "Have you seen beef prices right now? If you could make it for less, I'll give you a job." For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter Another person questioning if the meat came from his own cows prompted Clarkson to clarify: "Some are. Most come from other farmers in the area and we pay a premium. We are here to back British farming. If you don't want to do that, fine. Enjoy your chlorine." Clarkson was met with fury over prices at his pub, but many fans jumped to his defence (Image: X ) The new series of Clarkson's Farm has shown the TV star battling a mountain of rocketing bills to open the pub near his Diddly Squat Farm in Chipping Norton, Oxon. He nearly threw up from the stench in one episode as the boozer's old septic tank was repaired. Article continues below Since the pub opened it has become a massive hit - though Clarkson claimed at one point he was losing £10-per-customer. Its menu offers 'steak pie, mash, carrots, seasonal greens and Hawkstone gravy' for £24. The pub's website boasts: "Our menu is made entirely with ingredients produced on British farms. It'll change based on what's in season, but it'll always be absolutely f****** delicious. Take a look and see what takes your fancy." Some individuals on X have called the pie 'f****** extortionate' and accused the owner of being 'tight', with one commenting sarcastically: "At least Dick Turpin wore a mask." Yet, the majority are in his corner - especially those who have sampled the pie themselves. There were even suggestions he should increase the price. A satisfied customer tweeted: "Was the best £24 spent! Fantastic meal there, great food and all local produce - stop whinging!". Another wrote: "Ah! But what pie!" While one said: "Worth every penny." One of Clarkson's regulars said: "Best pub in the world is not for you, stick to McDonalds." Jason Rees, a customer, said: "Having eaten in @JeremyClarkson's pub and expecting it to be overhyped and average I was so impressed with the food we rebooked, as soon as we could, to repeat the experience. It's not cheap food but the quality was outstanding." Coronation Street icon Vicky Entwistle, 56, famed for her role as Janice Battersby and appearance in Celebrity Big Brother, remarked: "I think that price is want to visit my village pub up north the prices are through the roof." Mark Polden, an economics student, weighed in: "Most pub food is garbage, quality food, service, and a pleasant environment are expensive to provide and in the greater scheme of things £24 isn't a lot for that combination." Kris Shortland chimed in with a message explaining the costs involved: "You're paying for farmer, transport, slaughter, handling, butcher, chef, rates, tax, insurances, staff, other overheads. I'd be surprised if he's making more than a few quid profit per plate with all the rising costs, setup costs etc. He's lucky that he has other income streams." Article continues below Another supporter suggested the quality of ingredients justifies the price: "I'm guessing it's using unprocessed ingredients and fresh veg. There's a saying you get what you pay for. You could have a Dacia Duster pie meal for £10 rr a Mercedes pie for £24."
