Awkward moment Love Islander's smile drops after Maya Jama makes on air joke about her
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A LOVE Island star's smile dropped following Maya Jama's on-air joke about her - in an awkward moment. Many former Islanders from this year's series made return appearances for the ITV2 show's final. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Love Island host Maya caught up with Meg and Dejon during the final Credit: ITV 4 Dumped bombshell Malisha's (in the background) smile dropped after a quip from Maya Credit: ITV 4 Malisha arrived on Day 5 - but had a short stint in the villa Credit: Eroteme This included Malisha Jordan, who was eliminated early on this summer. During her brief time in the villa, she clashed with Meg over getting to know Dejon. Maya caught up with axed stars including Meg and Dejon, who were dumped right before the final. When the topic of a group trip came up, the host asked: "Why didn't I get an invite? Where are we going?" Meg replied: "You can come", before turning around and asking: "Where are we going, Malisha?" At this point, Maya then said: "Oh my God, I won't be attending." Malisha had been smiling, although this dropped after the presenter's quip. The bombshell arrived on Day 5, alongside Yasmin Pettet and Emily Moran. Unfortunately, Malisha - along with Toni - found themselves at risk of being dumped on Day 8. It meant that new bombshell Harrison had the decision of who would stay. Dumped bombshell Malisha takes ANOTHER swipe at Meg & Dejon after fiery interview He dated both girls, but chose Toni, meaning Malisha was therefore dumped as a result. Following her exit, the teaching assistant took savage digs at her co-stars when appearing on spin-off Aftersun. During a spicy segment, Malisha was asked by an audience member to give one-word verdicts on her fellow Islanders. When it came to Shea, she didn't mince words, saying chatting to him was like 'talking to a brick wall.' Meanwhile, Malisha said her and Meg's clashing personalities were 'too similar". She also claimed Meg 'went too far' — and said they'd 'never be friends' on the outside. While things didn't quite work out with Dejon in the villa, Malisha left the door open for a post-show spark, cheekily saying they had 'unfinished business'. Love Island airs on ITV2 and ITVX.

Has Jay Blades left The Repair Shop? TV presenter's absence explained
Jay Blades began fronting The Repair Shop upon its inception in 2017 but stepped back from filming the BBC One hit show last year amid a number of personal issues Jay Blades has been the face of The Repair Shop since it began in 2017 - however, those tuning into the show may be confused as to why the TV presenter is missing and when he stepped back from the show. The TV presenter appeared in court today via video link on a controlling or coercive behaviour charge shortly, which he denies, after being charged with two counts of rape. Jay Blades initially quit social media in April last year after the murder of his uncle. He wrote on Instagram: "I've just been to my uncle's funeral, he was murdered a few weeks ago. Really, super nice guy, shouldn't have happened to him, but it really affected me. "So what I'm intending on doing is this... I'm coming off social media for a bit, and I'll be back in a bit. Going to go and get some therapy and just chill out." Shortly afterwards in May 2024, it was reported that Blades was taking a break from TV following the breakdown of his marriage and his uncle's shock murder, with the BBC show "carrying on without him". It came after the TV star's wife of 18 months, fitness influencer Lisa-Marie Zbozen, announced that she was leaving him. A source told The Sun at the time: "Jay has taken a step back and is having a break from filming The Repair Shop. His uncle's murder in March and the breakdown of his marriage means he has decided to take some time out. "The Repair Shop is carrying on without him for now and the other repairers are hard at work. People who worked with Jay said they were shocked to hear his marriage to Lisa has ended. It was not well known at all among the people who work on the show." Blades last appeared on The Repair Shop in episodes of the show's 13th series, having appeared in episode 11 back in September. The BBC is yet to confirm whether Blades will return to the show. While Blades was previously the show's foreman, that role is now shared between experts Will Kirk and Dominic Chinea. The Mirror has reached out to the BBC for comment. On Tuesday, Blades appeared at Worcester Crown Court via video link for a preliminary hearing in relation to the controlling or coercive behaviour charge. Blades, who wore animal-print spectacles, a grey suit and a blue polka-dot tie, spoke only to confirm his name during a short hearing. The TV star denied engaging in controlling or coercive behaviour towards his estranged wife Lisa-Marie Zbozen between January 1 2023 and September 12 last year and he will face a trial at a later date. In a statement on Tuesday, police also confirmed separate charges of rape. The force said: 'Jason Blades, 55, of Claverley in Shropshire, has been charged with two counts of rape. He is due to appear at Telford Magistrates' Court on 13 August 2025.' Prior to that, West Mercia Police confirmed charges against the 55-year-old presenter, who stepped back from hosting The Repair Shop last year, and said that a magistrates' court date is set for Wednesday 13 August. "Jason Blades, 55, of Claverley in Shropshire, has been charged with two counts of rape," a spokesperson for the force told The Mirror. "He is due to appear at Telford magistrates' court on 13 August 2025." Blades, who was awarded an MBE in the 2021 Birthday Honours for his services to crafts has three children; a daughter from his first marriage and two sons from previous relationships. The TV star is best known for presenting The Repair Shop, Money for Nothing and Jay Blades' Home Fix, and co-presenting Jay and Dom's Home Fix. He has also fronted features with Sir David Jason and Dame Judi Dench. He was said to have signed up to new ITV show Shark! Celebrity Infested Waters before his arrest. However, the show was reportedly thrown into chaos after allegations emerged with bosses taking swift action to remove Blades. 'Attracting a popular BBC star to be in the new ITV series was a big win for bosses," a source told the Sun. 'But as soon as Jay Blades was arrested in March 2024, they knew they had to make a quick decision about the future of the show. 'He was given the boot. Producers got lucky as they hadn't started filming or doing any promotion yet so were able to replace him with someone else." In October 2022 the dad-of-three was the lead presenter for a special edition of the BBC series featuring the newly crowned King Charles. He then worked on a 15-part restoration series with Only Fools and Horses star Sir David Jason.
