Amy Childs sparks concern after sharing snaps of construction work on new pool at home as fans issue stark warning
AMY Childs has sparked concern after revealing her latest home renovation plans. It comes off the back of a tough week for the TOWIE star, who revealed her wedding to fiance Billy Delbosq had been cancelled - and the reason why. 6 Amy Childs has sparked concern among her fans after posting a home renovation update Credit: Getty 6 She captured her partner, 42, and eight year old daughter Polly exploring her new outdoor pool Credit: TikTok 6 Fans suggested the swim space was 'too deep' and posed a threat to her four kids Credit: TikTok Mum of four Amy, 34, has also been fighting the comments on body-shamers and confessed the real reason she has lost so much weight. Yet now she has been bombarded with comments from Instagram followers fearing for her security. It came as she posted a video of her outdoor swimming pool being created in the grounds of her stunning Essex home. Billy, 42, and her eldest daughter Polly, eight, could be seen carefully clambering down the concrete levels as they explored the space, which is yet to be filled with water. In her caption, the ITVBe star wrote: "Moments like this is everything. "We are counting down the days. Thank you for making our dream turn into a reality." Yet some were more concerned about the apparent depth of the pool - and this posing a threat for her offspring. One took to the comments to bluntly write: "No need be so deep with 3 kids." A second put: "Please get security around it like a gated area etc x" 'Gutted' Amy Childs 'cancels wedding to Billy Delbosq' after fan backlash over extreme weight loss A third quizzed: "That pool looks so deep? It's taller then Billy, why so deep? Will be lovely for you all in summer months, asl ong as you are happy, is what matters." Another then wrote: "I wouldn't have a pool with young kids." Yet others were quick to share in her happiness, and one wrote: "Living the absolute dream." A second posted: "Going to be amazing Amy." Who is Amy Childs? Amy Childs was born June 7, 1990, and is a reality star, model, businesswoman and fashion designer. She shot to fame in 2010 by appearing in ITV2's reality TV show The Only Way Is Essex. She became known for her ditsy, likeable personality and briefly dated fellow cast member Kirk Norcoss. A particularly memorable scene involved her "vajazzling" Sam Faiers in a barbie pink-coloured salon. She left the show in 2011 and took part in Celebrity Big Brother, finishing fourth. She also took part in a fly-on-the-wall documentary, It's All About Amy on Channel 5. Two years later she competed in Channel 4's daredevil show The Jump and was the second person to be eliminated. She is now said to be worth around £5million through her fashion and beauty products. WEDDING WOE Amy pushed back her plans to get married due to "last minute changes", it was revealed this week. She is said to have been left "gutted" at the recent turn of events. Sources told Closer Magazine: "Amy has had to cancel her wedding and she's absolutely gutted. "There was going to be a show around it, following the run-up to their big day, but they've had to make some last-minute changes based on what's going on in their lives." The news came just weeks after The Sun previously reported how her "perfect" wedding plans were under threat. Amy shares two of her four children with Billy, who she first met in 2000. She referred to him as her "Prince Charming" after they set eyes on each other during lockdown. In 2023, the pair welcomed twins, Amelia and Billy, into the world after a "long and exhausting" labour - yet their marriage plans have taken a back seat. HUGE CONCERN Over the last few months, the reality star's shrinking frame has also caused some concern amongst fans. In a bid to put rumours of "fat jabs" to bed, Amy has finally opened up about her extreme weight loss, which has seen her shed two stone. Speaking to OK! magazine, she said: "People don't know what is going on behind closed doors. 'I'm going through so much at the minute that the weight has fallen off me. I worry about my mum constantly. 'She's very emotional – she thinks she's going to have another heart attack. 'People think I'm not eating, but I do eat. To be honest, I do feel better when I'm a bit heavier than I am at the moment. 'There's so much going on at the minute – it's the result of pure stress." Addressing fans who had speculated she had used medication to shed the pounds she said: 'I just want to be clear that, as I've said before, I'm not using weight-loss injections." 6 Amy also clappe back at body shamers this weekend as she revealed the real reason for her weight loss Credit: TikTok 6 The 34-year-old denied using weight loss jabs Credit: Instagram

Nintendo is bringing one of its exclusive games to PC claims Microsoft website
A listing for a Nintendo first party game has appeared on Microsoft's Edge Game Assist webpage and it's either a mistake or the biggest news in gaming for a decade. Although Sony has finally embraced the PC market it seems impossible to imagine that any Nintendo-made game would ever appear on a modern PC, especially given some of the failed experiments in the 90s, with titles like Mario's Game Gallery. The question must certainly have come up, amongst Nintendo's execs, and you can guarantee that Microsoft has encouraged them to release games on the format, but there's never been any outward sign that they've considered it… until now. To be clear, this is almost certainly a mistake of some kind, but nevertheless, the recently re-released Xenoblade Chronicles X is currently listed as one of various ordinary PC games that are 'enhanced for Microsoft Edge Game Assist.' We'll be honest, we've never heard of Edge Game Assist until now, and we imagine most other people haven't either, but according to Microsoft, 'for a selection of popular PC games' it highlights 'helpful resources whenever you open a new tab. Many popular PC games are already enhanced for Game Assist, with more on the way.' While there is an infinitesimally small chance that Microsoft has convinced Nintendo to release games on PC, and that fact has been accidentally revealed early – ahead of the Xbox Games Showcase next Sunday – the much more likely explanation is that this is some kind of error. Perhaps it's a disgruntled employee or intern but it's a very odd mistake to make for a human and yet seems like exactly the sort of error an AI would make. Microsoft is obsessed with AI at the moment, in terms of both using it and selling it to others, and don't seem to care whether it does what it's supposed to or not – reportedly Xbox use it for language translations in Europe, even for things as important as the Xbox dashboard, and there are often very obvious mistakes. Given how unpopular Xbox is on the Continent you might have thought they'd learn from that, but it seems not. As it is, at time of writing, Xenoblade Chronicles X is still listed amongst the supported games. You can't see what kind of assistance is being offered though, as you have to start the game first… which doesn't exist on PC. More Trending Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition was released on Nintendo Switch this March, as the last major Wii U game to be ported to the format. That means that all the Xenoblade Chronicles games are now available on Switch, following Nintendo's move to buy 100% of developer Monolith Soft – who they also use as a support studio for major games such as Zelda: Breath Of the Wild. A new Xenoblade game is expected early on in the Switch 2's lifespan, and Monolith Soft is already working on a new role-playing game of some sort. So, the chances of Microsoft teaming up with Nintendo to release Xenoblade, or any other exclusive, on PC seem miniscule. And mistakes like this are only likely to put Nintendo off the idea even more. Email gamecentral@ leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter, and sign-up to our newsletter.

The BBC Morning Live shared on his Instagram story that he sadly could not take part in the epic sport event, Hyrox, which is taking place in Cardiff's Principality Stadium this weekend (Image: Gethin Jones / Instagram ) The event, which is held across the globe, sees competitors run 1km before completing one fitness exercise, including 1km on a standing ski machine, 50m of sled push and 80m of burpee jumps. They then repeat the process until they have performed eight 1km runs and all eight workouts, which also include carrying a kettlebell, as well as throws and catches of a medicine ball off a wall. You can read more about the Hyrox event here. Not being able to participate in the high-energy event will undoubtedly come as a disappointment for Gethin Jones. The presenter, who hails from Cardiff, is known for nearly turning professional in rugby, after previously having trials with Sale Sharks in Manchester. Earlier this year, he joined former Olympic champion and friend, Sir Chris Hoy, as they embarked on a muddy trail in One Planet Adventure in Denbighshire. And the presenter also embarked on the gruelling charity challenge, Wheely Big Challenge, which saw him rollerblade for 24 hours alongside his Morning Live host, Helen Skelton, for Red Nose Day in March. Article continues below Despite not being able to take part in the Hyrox in Wales this weekend, it does seem as if the presenter will still turn up to the event to support his friends.
