Stephanie Davis splits with boyfriend before Father's Day in fresh heartbreak
Stephanie Davis has split with her boyfriend Joseph McKalory ahead of Father's Day.
The Coronation Street star and Joseph McKalory welcomed their son, Samuel, into the world in January after getting together in 2022.
However, today, Steph made no mention of Joseph as she shared a photo of her own father with a heartfelt caption, thanking himfor helping with her two sons Caben and Samuel, adding "there aren't many men like you." Responding to her post, one fan asked: "Where's Joe?2 while another said: "I think they had split up. There's no mention of them in each other's bios."
Joe penned the caption of the joint post, that read: 'Welcome to the world my beautiful baby boy Samuel McKalroy.
'Named after your uncle the one and only who will always weigh heavy on my heart I wish so much that he could've met you and cherished you as much as I do.
'It has been a traumatic experience but you are finally here in our arms. I never thought I could possibly love your mummy anymore than I already do but this is just so special and an unconditional love I cannot explain with words.
'I love you more than you will ever know.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle send 'strong message' to royals in personal video
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Meghan Markle has unveiled previously unseen footage of her children in celebration of Father's Day, and one expert suggests it signals a fresh approach for the Sussexes. The Duchess of Sussex posted an exceptionally personal video montage of Prince Harry with their two young children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. The compilation included various photos and videos of the Duke of Sussex with his children over the years, marking a significant departure from the couple's prior policy of keeping their children's faces entirely out of public view. Just before midnight UK time, the Duchess of Sussex shared the video on Instagram, which was set to Jason Mraz's song Have It All. Meghan captioned the post: "The best. Happy Father's Day to our favourite guy", as the touching montage of Harry with six year old Archie and four year old Lilibet played. The video showcases intimate moments, including footage of Archie and Lilibet as infants, along with clips of Harry playing outside with them, dancing in the kitchen, at the beach, and during various other family outings. This clip follows closely on the heels of another personal video shared by Meghan, featuring her twerking while in labour. In response to the new video, body language expert Judi James has highlighted a stark contrast between Meghan's Father's Day post and that of Princess Kate, suggesting there's a covert message for Archie and Lilibet, reports the Mirror. "The basic display tone of this video, that is a narrative of clips of Harry being a father, is very different to the one the UK royals tend to use for their Father's Day poses," Judi shared with the Mirror. She elaborated: "With William and his children, Kate is very present, holding the camera. The children and often William tend to look into the camera to signal firstly inclusion of Kate but secondly their sense of having a public role too. "Meghan's films suggest she is admiring her husband from a distance here. The sense of strong love is present, but it's also a reflective presence as though she's wanting to show how Harry reacts naturally with their children, almost when 'nobody is watching'. It's the kind of event many mothers experience when they look out of the window to watch their husband playing with the children and reflect on how good a father they are." Judi continued: "This is a whole cinematic-looking narrative, too. Unlike the rather basic filming of her pregnancy twerking, this is glossy and idealistic, using lighting and filming techniques to make it look like movie class. It often feels like you're watching the opening credits of a show like Succession where they mock up historic-looking home movies to bring the family up to the present day. "There's the technicolour technique at the start and end, which is similar to the Enid Blyton style colouring they once used on their Xmas cards. There's soft focus for the babies, then a more Vogue-style lighting and filming as Harry walks with his kids as they get older." Sharing her insights into the portrayal of the father-of-two amidst his public disagreement with his family, the specialist commented: "Harry is shown being a tender, tactile and often playful dad who is very involved in teaching his children as they grow." Within the footage, one motif that recurs could be interpreted as a message to the Royal household, relating to Harry's ongoing struggle for safety and security for his offspring while visiting the UK. "There is also a very strong message of freedom for the children and Harry here, too," Judi observed. "There is a lot of running and walking away from the camera to continue to reject a more public profile but it's the recurring theme of the bare feet too." Judi went on to say: "With both Harry and his children walking in bare feet, the symbolic reference is to a free life but also to a wealthy one, as walking barefoot on public streets and parks tends to be a dangerous pastime. On your own estate, though, it's clearly just fine." This Father's Day post joins a series of Meghan revealing more personal snapshots of their family affairs on social media. Only the previous week, she shared a video capturing the family's joyous outing at Disneyland in honour of Princess Lilibet's fourth birthday celebration. This development follows Harry and Meghan's recent decision to overhaul their internal communications by parting ways with their existing PR team. In a significant move, they have appointed Method Communications, a company that describes itself as "disruptors" who "challenge the status quo".

Alice Evans' reaction to ex Ioan Gruffudd's 'punch in gut' pregnancy news
Hornblower star, Ioan Gruffudd, and new wife, Bianca, are expecting their first baby together, which has reportedly left the actor's ex, Alice Evans, 'fuming' Alice Evans is "absolutely fuming" after her ex Ioan Gruffudd announced he was going to become a father again. The Hornblower star, 51, who shares two daughters with his ex-wife, 53, shared his happy news with new wife, Bianca, 32, on Father's Day, posting a snap of the couple with the caption: "Baby Gruffudd poppin' out to say hello!" While Ioan's legion of loyal followers flocked to congratulate the Welsh actor, Alice is allegedly 'horribly upset' after claiming she's been left destitute while looking after the former couple's daughters. Revealing her response to the bombshell news, a source said: "Alice will be absolutely fuming over this. She's made no secret of the fact she's destitute looking after the two kids, so to have him rub how well he's doing in her face is a real gut-punch." They continued to The Sun: "For Ioan to not only break the news like that, but do it on Father's Day . . . it's yet another horribly upsetting saga for her to deal with." Ioan and Alice formally divorced in July 2023. However, they are still battling fiercely over spousal support and custody and financial support for their two daughters Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11. Alice spoke candidly about the split, telling followers she was in 'excruciating pain' as she opened up about the break-up in agonising detail. in 2021, the 102 Dalmatians star said she was desperately fighting to save the relationship but said she 'can't see' Ioan coming back. The pair shared a joint statement admitting they were going through a 'difficult time' as their 13 year marriage crumbled. In a follow-up post, Alice took to Instagram to share a photo of a broken heart and another image of a heart on a blackboard with 'Game over' written across it. The couple released a joint statement saying it was a difficult time but they remain 'committed' to their daughters Ella and Elsie. "As you can imagine, this is an incredibly difficult time for our family and we remain committed to our children. Thank you for respecting our privacy," they shared. Ioan and Bianca went public with their relationship in 2021 after working together on the set of Aussie ABC series, Harrow. It was another two years before Ioan's divorce from Alice was finalised. During that time he went through a bitter court hearing with his ex-wife, where he sought a restraining order against Alice. Ioan and Bianca claimed to have endured a 'smear campaign' of hateful text messages, emails and social media posts from the mum-of-two. Ioan also fought Alice's request for more money for spousal support, claiming he had paid $400,000 (£294,000) more than he needed to. In court papers he called Alice's claims of poverty were 'exaggerated' and said it's a 'false narrative' that she and the children have been left destitute. In February this year, Alice claimed she'd been evicted from her home in Los Angeles after being 'unable to pay her rent'. The actress said she and her daughters had been forced to leave and had 'no way of renting even the cheapest room in the city.'

Unexpected Lisa and Kit twist in early Coronation Street ITVX streaming release
The following article contains spoilers from an episode of Coronation Street that hasn't aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX. Coronation Street's DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) has been put on restrictive duties at work, after making a terrible mistake. Last week, the beloved character was very much looking forward to viewing a house with Carla Connor (Alison King) so they could eventually move in together alongside Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin). In tonight's episode though, when Carla announced that she had organised a visit to the Nazir household, Lisa became distant. Taking herself off to the cafe, Lisa witnessed troubled teen Brody Michaelis (Ryan Mulvey) wind Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) up. Due to her mind being somewhat elsewhere, she ended up arresting Brody, and everyone watching the incident unfold believed she was overreacting. At the station, Brody was thrown in a cell but tried to tell Swain that he needed the pills that were in his pocket. She didn't believe him, and it led to Brody suffering a seizure on his own. When Lisa found out, she was horrified by her mistake. Back at the flat, she told Carla that if a complaint is made, she will more than likely get suspended. After admitting that Craig's (Colson Smith) death reminded her of Becky's, Lisa was called back to the station by her boss. Costello told Lisa that she'd be put on restrictive duties for as long as he thinks is necessary. Swain tried to fight it by saying she arrested Brody for breach of the peace, but she eventually gave in and accepted her fate. That evening, Lisa visited Kit Green (Jacob Roberts). The dodgy copper confessed to reporting Lisa, and refused to believe the incident with Brody was just a stupid mistake. Kit pushed Lisa, accusing her of having a vendetta against the Michaelis family. More Trending Lisa told Kit that she's previously turned a blind eye for him where Mick and 'other things' are concerned, and walked away after telling him to watch his back.
