Future of Olivia Attwood's Getting Filthy Rich doc revealed after she lands This Morning hosting job for summer
OLIVIA ATTWOOD means business – and I'm not talking about her sartorial choices in this sharp, suited new shoot.
I can reveal the ITV star has been handed a FOURTH series of her award-winning Getting Filthy Rich documentary which explores the new ways people sell their sexuality.
It comes hot on the heels of the news that she will be hosting This Morning during the summer.
Olivia made the announcement on Monday's episode as she joined Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard in the studio.
She told viewers that she would be presenting the show with one of the regular co-hosts for a couple of episodes this summer.
Olivia said: "I have some news, it's very exiting. I'll be joining you guys on the hosting team on the other side."
She then jumped up and sat on the other side of the sofa next to Cat.
Cat said: "We look amazing," while Olivia replied: "Can we do a show together now?"
Olivia explained: "I'm going to be doing a couple of shows in the summer, I'm very excited to be joining you guys, a huge honour.
"I've grown up watching this show and being part of the daytime team on Loose Women has been the best experience and this just feels like a very natural progression."
I'm not surprised she has such strong backing, as the channel reports that her entire body of work has been streamed a mindboggling 233million times on ITVX.
She's the far-more-jolly new Holly Willoughby.
Congrats, Olivia!

Waterstones debut fiction prize 2025 shortlist announced
Waterstones has selected six 'astonishingly impressive and inspiring new voices' for its fourth debut fiction prize shortlist, including Catherine Airey, William Rayfet Hunter and Lucy Steeds. The shortlist, which also features Gurnaik Johal, Niamh Ní Mhaoileoin and Lisa Ridzén, represents a 'bright and promising future for fiction', said Bea Carvalho, head of books at Waterstones. Airey was shortlisted for Confessions, a multigenerational family saga, described as 'a cool, bold image of female pain and liberation' by Daisy Hildyard in the Guardian. Hunter made the list for Sunstruck, in which an aspiring musician is invited to spend the summer at a mansion in the south of France with a university friend. 'The novel's brisk pacing, together with its shrewd blend of emotional sincerity, brooding intrigue and political overtones, make for a lively beach read,' wrote Houman Barekat in a Guardian review. 'The prose reads like a cross between an airport romance and a screenplay for a Saltburn-style television drama.' The shortlist 'tackles weighty themes and has a lot of fun along the way, celebrating art and transgression, first love and hedonistic summer holidays, and the joy of chosen family,' said Carvalho. 'It also showcases light-footed and playful prose full of verve and panache.' The winner of the prize will be announced on 24 July, and is set to receive £5,000 along with the 'promise of ongoing commitment to the winner's writing career'. Steeds was selected for The Artist, which is about an aspiring journalist who goes to visit a renowned and reclusive artist living in Provence with his niece. 'With lavish, luxurious description, Steeds evokes the sensory environment: the smell of hot earth, the sound of crickets, sunlight on soft yellow stones, 'a constellation of fireflies … spreading and regrouping like a net of stars,'' wrote Christobel Kent in a Guardian review. 'A seductive combination of romance, puzzle and poetry, The Artist also offers a considered interrogation of the value of art: to open windows in human existence, to push against limits, to bring freedom, perspective and light.' The shortlist also features Saraswati by Johal, Ordinary Saints by Ní Mhaoileoin, and When the Cranes Fly South by Ridzén, translated from Swedish by Alice Menzies. When the Cranes Fly South, a bestseller in Sweden, is the first translated novel to be shortlisted for the prize. It is about an elderly man, Bo, living in a rural village in the north of Sweden with his dog, which his son insists must be taken away. The idea for the book came to Ridzén through the discovery of notes her grandfather's care team had left. More than 600 Waterstones booksellers were involved in the selection of the shortlist, and a panel of booksellers will choose the winner. Previous winners of the award are Tess Gunty, Alice Winn and Ferdia Lennon, who won last year for his novel Glorious Exploits, and went on to win the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse prize.

Distraught King Charles watches on as his horse FLOPS at Royal Ascot despite being the favourite
KING Charles's hopes for his horse at Royal Ascot were dashed yesterday as the favourite failed to dazzle in the sun and finished ninth. Reaching High had been hotly tipped by bookies at 11-4 before the Ascot Stakes but he flopped in front of the expectant monarch. 4 4 4 Thousands of revellers who were enjoying a scorching day at the Berkshire racecourse and had backed the favourite were also left stunned. Charles, 76, and Queen Camilla, 77, had been cheering from the Royal Box but were seen leaving shortly after the loss — even with two more races to go. Despite being trained by legendary Willie Mullins and ridden by top jockey Ryan Moore, the horse got stuck in the pack and never hit the front. Mullins said: 'Ryan just said he got no run. He's finished full of running, but just got no luck in running, so it's disappointing. 'Their Majesties are very easy, lovely people to train for and it's a pleasure. 'There's a bit more pressure when you train one for them at this meeting, but to bring one here with a real chance is what we like to do. 'Hopefully this fellow will show us how good he is at some stage later in the season.' The King, whose only Ascot win was Desert Hero in 2023, is set to attend every day of the five-day festival after The Sun revealed he was surprised at how much he enjoyed the occasion. He had taken over his mum Queen Elizabeth II's stable of horses. She had more than 20 Royal Ascot winners during her 70-year reign. Earlier, Charles had written in the official racecard: 'Having experienced the thrill of victory at Royal Ascot ourselves in 2023, we can only wish all those competing this week the very best of luck and that everyone watching has a most enjoyable five days.' King Charles sends Willie Mullins 'impressive' horse with amazing pedigree in historic deal - as they target Royal Ascot Royals were out in force on the first day of the annual event.
