Plus, other comical baby scans that have left people cracking up OH BABY Mum left in stitches after baby scan photo bears striking resemblance to popular TV presenter, but do you see it? A PREGNANT woman roared with laughter after realising a scan of her unborn baby looked like . . . Strictly and Traitors host Claudia Winkleman. Amy Baldwin, 38, was amazed when the grainy 12-week ultrasound last week seemed to show a bob and fringe similar to 53-year-old Claudia's famous locks. 5 Amy Baldwin, from Hastings, was shocked when she looked closely at her baby scan Credit: Simon Jones 5 Her family pointed out the scan looks remarkably like TV host Claudia Winkleman Credit: Simon Jones 5 Many people on social media also see the likeness to Traitors and Strictly host Claudia Credit: Getty Amy, below, who already has three young kids, told The Sun: 'I didn't notice at first but my eldest said: 'Why does the baby look like Claudia Winkleman?' "As soon as she said it, I couldn't unsee it. Every time I look at it, I just laugh. 'Claudia is a national treasure but I'm not sure I want to give birth to her!' Influencer Amy then shared the image with her 70,000 TikTok followers. Among the viewers was Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt, who posted: 'Claudia's cute, so your baby will be.' X Factor stars Jedward also joined in, quipping: 'Middle name or first better be Claudia.' But others reckon the foetus looks more like lanky-haired comic Noel Fielding. Amy, from Hastings, East Sussex, added: 'The comments have kept me entertained for days.' It's not the first time a baby scan has caused a laugh.

We recently shared how Claudia Winkleman looked totally different as she went bare-faced after eye op and revealed she was banned from wearing her trademark eyeliner. The Traitors host, 53, gushed about her doctor following a successful procedure. Claudia revealed she would be forced to go without her trademark eyeliner for weeks after her June op as she recovered. 5 In June, Claudia looked almost unrecognisable without her trademark eyeliner Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk Although she didn't go into detail about what she had done, it was thought to be laser eye surgery, which is used to correct vision problems. Posting a snap of her cuddled up to her eye doctor Julian, Claudia wrote on social media: "This amazing human makes me see. "He's operated on my eyes before and he did it again today. "No eyeliner for weeks and I sleep in googles (no words) but I'm eternally grateful. "Do NOT zoom in on my left eye - it's wonky. "Thank you Julian. I paid for the treatment, this isn't an ad. "I just love him. It's very possible I'm still a bit sedated. Night night." In May, pictures were leaked of Celebrity Traitors being filmed in the Scottish Highlands with what looked like a Trojan horse. The 19 celebs on the show, hosted by Claudia, include Stephen Fry, Charlotte Church, Kate Garraway, Jonathan Ross and Celia Imrie. They have all had to hand over their phones to crew to prevent them from discussing game plans on the show, expected to air in October.

Nathan Carter meet and greet row erupts again as team hits back

The row over Nathan Carter's controversial Belfast meet and greet has reignited, as the country star's team hit back at claims he was ever officially booked for the event. The Wagon Wheel singer had headlined Feile an Phobail's sold-out Country Festival in Falls Park on Saturday night - joined by The Whistlin' Donkeys, Ultimate Eagles and Claudia Buckley - but confusion unfolded at The Balmoral Hotel, where a free "Nathan Carter Meet and Greet" had been promoted as part of its new Cargo Cult Smokehouse launch. Hundreds of fans turned up expecting to meet the singer, only for Nathan to post on Instagram the next day saying he had never been "officially booked" and apologising to disappointed guests. The 35-year-old said: "Regarding the meet and greet which was advertised for the Balmoral Hotel yesterday with myself, it's something that I was never booked for and apologies to people who did turn up. "When I got to Belfast I headed straight over and I met a few people at the hotel, but obviously missed an awful lot of people that had been there, so apologies about that. But unfortunately, it's something, as I say, that I was never officially booked for and it was advertised, so hope you all had a good time anyway at the Feile." But the hotel quickly hit back with a no-holds-barred Facebook post, claiming the event was booked and confirmed via Nathan's official promoter, Joe Gallagher Entertainment. Nathan Carter addressed the situation on Instagram (Image: Instagram/iamnathancarter) "Let's clear a few things up, shall we?" the hotel began. "As a proud sponsor of this year's Feile, we at The Balmoral Hotel were genuinely excited to host a FREE 'Nathan Carter: MEAT and Greet' event for the launch of our new Cargo Cult Smokehouse. This was booked and confirmed for us on Saturday 25th July via Joe Gallagher Entertainment, named as the official promoter for Nathan Carter's show. We were told that Nathan would be arriving on Saturday 2nd August any time between 4pm and 6pm." The Balmoral Hotel said they had only 250 free tickets - which "went within hours" - and claimed they reconfirmed the booking, even after being asked to "take the post down by Nathan's team", who were reportedly "getting requests from other businesses for meet and greets". They detailed extensive preparations, including shutting the car park, bringing in extra staff, providing free food, live music, a DJ, photographer, videographer and even a shuttle bus. The Balmoral alleged: "At 5pm, we got word from the promoters that Nathan would be arriving at 8pm, which overlapped with the start time of the Feile concert. We informed guests about this and let them decide what to do. Some stayed, some understandably couldn't and headed to the concert. We kept the energy up, and Nathan eventually arrived just before 10pm, posed for photos, and then headed to the show." The hotel then hit back at Nathan's social media claim: "Now here's the twist: Today, Nathan Carter posted a story on social media saying we never booked him. We're just going to say this: Maybe, just maybe, his teams should start talking to each other, because from where we're standing, this was very much booked and we planned every last detail around it. We're not in the business of drama, but we are in the business of hospitality and we're proud of the effort our team put in to make something special (and free) for our community." The Balmoral Hotel in Dunmurry on the outskirts of Belfast city (Image: Google Maps) The hotel closed their statement with a jab: "To our guests: thank you. To our team: legends. To Nathan: next time, we're booking Daniel O'Donnell. With love, The Balmoral Hotel." As the row went viral online, Nathan's team has now responded with a fresh statement. A spokesperson for Nathan Carter said that he was "never booked for this". They told Belfast Live: "On Saturday night Nathan and his band performed at Feile Country Fest, which was an amazing gig. The promoter, who booked Nathan for the show, asked if Nathan would go to the venue and meet the venue proprietor and some of his personal guests to which we agreed, but at no stage was there a time or agreement to do an official meet and greet. "Once Nathan arrived in Belfast, he went straight to the venue and met some of the people that were there. We understand people's annoyance and are very sorry that this happened, but as I said, this was never booked as an official meet and greet." Promoter Joe Gallagher Entertainment also weighed in and took to the Balmoral Hotel's defence. A spokesperson said: "Joe Gallagher Entertainment can confirm that the Nathan Carter pre-concert meet and greet advertised by the Balmoral Hotel in Belfast was pre-arranged and agreed with Nathan's Tour Manager. "After being delayed on his arrival in Belfast, Nathan did ensure he made an appearance at the Balmoral Hotel event. The delay was in no part due to the Balmoral Hotel."
