LadBaby admit they used to live on £20 a week as they open up about 'tough' past before bagging FIVE number one singles

LadBaby 's Roxanne Hoyle has opened up on the 'deepest, darkest moments' she and husband Mark endured before they shot to fame, including living on just £20 a week. Roxanne, 41, and Mark, 38, celebrate 10 years of marriage this year after a decade which saw them go from a normal happy couple to some of the most successful social media stars in the country. It all started with Mark making parody songs on his new YouTube channel around 2016, and within just two years the duo had managed to bag the top spot on the UK Singles Chart with We Built This City (On Sausage Rolls). The comedians come musicians amazingly secured number ones in each of the proceeding five years with playful remixes of famous songs - including I Love Sausage Rolls in 2019 and Don't Stop Me Eating in 2021. After years of success, the couple now boast more than a million followers each on Instagram and over a million subscribers on YouTube. 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. But it certainly wasn't all plain sailing for the two members of LadBaby before all their success. In a new interview with New Magazine, Roxanne - better known as LadBaby mum - revealed she and Mark used to live on £20 a week when they first moved in together. 'Well, we met over cocktails in London and fell in love - cheesy but true,' she said. 'When we got pregnant with our first, Mark worked a couple of jobs and I stayed home. We literally had £20 a week to live on - it was joyful, but it was so hard. 'That's why we'll never forget where we came from. That's why we give back, support food banks and do what we do now.' Mark and Roxanne share two sons together - nine-year-old Phoenix and seven-year-old Kobe who have lived through their success. But - as many a celebrity has - LadBaby have struggled with their fair share of online trolls. Roxanne told new! Magazine that even when 'trying to do something nice like a charity song with Ed Sheeran and Elton John', she and her husband have been trolled. The 41-year-old previously revealed that LadBaby first received backlash after unfounded allegations were spread online that they were pocketing money they raised for the Trussell Trust. They received thousands of abusive messages online along with threats in public with Mr Hoyle being confronted in a pub and having to be escorted to safety by bouncers. And after Mark refused to tell The Guardian the couple's political preference in a 2019 interview, they were attacked for being 'Tories'. The abuse became so severe that Mark started to suffer from panic attacks. The police took the case seriously and anti-terror officers were assigned to advise the couple at their home. 'I don't think people realise the impact of that level of trolling, where the police came to support us through that time,' Roxanne said. Most severely, in 2022 the couple were rocked by a video circulating on social media allegedly showing Mark hugging and rubbing up against an unknown woman in a Nottingham nightclub. An 18-second video of the incident had been sent to Mark and Roxanne along with a demand for £10,000 to prevent it from being released. The couple ignored the message hoping the blackmail was just a hoax, but months later the clip was widely shared online. There is no suggestion the touching in the video is non-consensual and the clip was later deleted from TikTok for violating its content terms. In their new memoir - Our LadBaby Journey: Success, Sacrifice and Sausage Rolls - the couple opened up about the reality of getting through the situation. Ahead of the book's release, Mark told The Guardian: 'We were lucky we had each other – that's what we've always said about LadBaby, the good and the bad.' And as the couple celebrate a decade of marriage, Roxanne said they're still 'best mates' having 'been through so much and come out stronger'.

Patsy Kensit reveals pals were banned from visiting her childhood home due to regular police raids as she opens up about profound impact of her 'villain' father's criminal career and association with gangsters the Krays

Patsy Kensit has always been open about her late father James' criminal career past. He was involved with notorious gangsters of the 1960s in London, including the Krays and the Richardsons, and had a total of nine convictions for theft. However, the actress, 57, has now revealed his actions had a profound impact on her growing up: 'I was never allowed to have play dates because the police could have turned the house over at any minute, but you just dealt with it'. 'It wasn't normal, but they were my family and I loved them. My father - God rest his soul - he was a rapscallion, but I adored him. Patsy's father James who passed away in 1987 was a pickpocket known as Jimmy the Dip and became friends with the Krays after they met as teenagers in an East End boxing club. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. He was involved with notorious gangsters of the 1960s in London, including the Krays and the Richardsons, and had a total of nine convictions for theft (pictured with Patsy's mum Margaret) 'My dad was a villain. My father was in and out of prison throughout my whole life. When I was about ten, he went away for a little bit, and helping Her Majesty with her enquires my mother would say to us, but he was my Dad, and I loved him desperately. I was a little girl, and a lot of it, I was quite protected from.' Ronnie and Reggie Kray ruled the East End with a ruthless regime of murder, armed robbery, arson, protection rackets and beatings before their incarcerations in 1968. Ronnie died in 1995 aged 61, followed five years later by Reggie aged 66. The mother-of-two, who amid the chaos found fame as a child actress, once claimed that Reggie Kray would write her letters from prison, and was godfather to her brother, Jamie. Discussing her unconventional upbringing in a past interview with Michael Parkinson, the thespian continued, 'It was odd growing up, because I've got two beautiful sons, and their life is so different to mine'. 'I was competing for work at a young age, and dealing with rejection, and I'm glad - I wouldn't be here today, and I'm so grateful for that. I couldn't imagine my sons doing that.' Patsy first gained attention as a tot in adverts for Birds Eye frozen peas, before going on to star in 1974's The Great Gatsby with Mia Farrow and 1976's The Blue Bird with Elizabeth Taylor. In 2013 she told The Mirror how mum Margaret, who died in 1993, protected the actress and brother James from their father's shady dealings. 'Mum did everything she could to keep that side of things hidden from us, she must have loved my dad a great deal to turn a blind eye to his villainy.' She went on to recall how her father went on the run and the family fled to Paris and then the Caribbean, before returning to London where he was arrested. 'Having to flee our home like that could have been pretty traumatising for a child, but it didn't scar me, To be honest, I found it all very exciting'. 'I couldn't understand why mum looked so sad the entire time we were away. Now, of course, I know it was because dad was on the run'. Meanwhile she wrote in her memoir Absolute Beginner: 'We only ever got glimpses [of her father's criminal activities]' 'His associates used to come over and go into the sitting room, where Dad would draw the curtains. Jamie and I would have to leave, but we could hear them doing the count-up from outside the door'. She continued: 'Sometimes I'd accompany Dad to meetings with his associates at West End hotels, which I loved because all the posh hotels had swimming pools. I'd go for a swim while he chatted to his mates'. During her 2008 appearance on BBC's Who Do You Think You Are Patsy learned more about her father's past. James' criminal record revealed he was arrested for the first time aged 19, and was later charged with being an 'incorrigible rogue', a specific offence under the Vagrancy Act. Patsy said: 'I loved my father but hearing this saddens me.' Of more specific details in the programme, she confessed: 'I couldn't sleep because I was so traumatised by everything that we found. I became very protective of my father - not because I condone what he did, but because he's my dad and I love him' Although he was recruited directly to work in fraud by Charlie Richardson, Patsy was relieved to discover her father had not been directly responsible for any of their legendary beatings. However, Army records revealed her grandfather, another James, also earned a lengthy criminal record. A gunner in the First World War, he had to forfeit his medal after being sentenced to three years' penal servitude for bringing the Army into disrepute. His nine convictions dating from 1915 include robbery and using counterfeit coins.
