Romeo Beckham's ex Kim Turnbull sets pulses racing in an array of bikinis for Agent Provocateur campaign after speaking out on rumours and lies
Romeo Beckham's ex Kim Turnbull set pulses racing as she flaunted her figure in an array of bikinis for an Agent Provocateur campaign.
The model and DJ, 24, is the face of the Spring/Summer 2025 and Forever Collection Swim Campaign, which launched on Monday.
Set against the sun-soaked backdrop of Ibiza, the campaign channels the party island with high-shine metallics, sculptural silhouettes, daring cut-outs.
Kim's connection to Agent Provocateur is both personal and generational, with the star saying: 'I'm so honoured to be part of this. Agent Provocateur has always been in my life.
'I used to wear my mum's hand-me-downs when I was little, so this feels like a full-circle moment. And to shoot in Ibiza, it's like my second home.'
The campaign comes after Kim spoke to The Sunday Times on her 'tough' experience with fame after splitting from Romeo Beckham and hit back at rumours that she dated his brother Brooklyn.
In snaps from the campaign, Kim put on a daring display in a red halterneck bikini while in another she was seen in a busty purple two-piece.
Kim was also looking radiant as she posed in a leopard print bikini complete with boyd chains, as well as a lilac cut-out halterneck swimsuit and a similar black one showing off her cleavage.
Creative Director Sarah Shotton explained why Kim was the natural choice for the Agent Provocateur campaign.
She said: 'Kim captures everything we love about. Summer, magnetic, inviting, and totally at ease in her skin.
'She brings a realness to our swimwear that's confident, cool, yet captivating.'
The brunette beauty, who only recently split from Romeo, 22, recently shot down accusations that she was romantically involved with Brooklyn, 26, in a statement posted to her Instagram account, explaining: 'I will not continue to receive harassment or be embarrassed on the basis of lies, to fit a certain narrative.
'I have never been romantically involved in ANY capacity at ANY point with the person in question.
Soon after Romeo shared a cryptic post about 'spreading unnecessary lies'.
And now in a new interview with the publication's Style Magazine, the DJ and model has opened up about how she deals with the limelight and juggling rumours about herself.
She said: 'There are situations that you find yourself in that present you with new aspects, but at the same time I think it has always been something that I've been around and seen, so I just take it day by day and try to focus on the positives.
'Sometimes it's difficult to block things out because a lot of the time there are things said that are not necessarily true or necessarily positive, and your instinctive reaction is to want to be like, no, that's not true!
'But I think what I've learnt, at this point in life, is to try and take it with a pinch of salt.'
Kim continued: 'It's definitely tough, whatever it is, when people are saying things about you that aren't necessarily true and, most importantly in my opinion, don't align with your character and your values.
'You want to turn around and reply to every comment and have your say in it, but at the end of the day you just can't.'
Kim had been at the centre of the Beckham family fallout, after Brooklyn's wife Nicola Peltz, 30, reportedly claimed that she felt uncomfortable around her.
Things came to a head when Brooklyn and Nicola were no shows at any of David's 50th birthday celebrations last month, with The Mail revealing that Kim has been made the 'scapegoat' in the feud.
Brooklyn and his wife Nicola snubbed the football legend David's five celebrations to mark his milestone birthday, including celebrations in Miami, London, Paris the Cotswolds and a boys fishing trip to Scotland.
He also failed to acknowledge his dad for Father's Day, despite David and Victoria publicly reaching out to their son.
Earlier this month the Mail exclusively revealed Kim and Romeo had split after seven months together.
Sources said how the pair's relationship had 'fizzled out' and their parting had 'nothing to do' with Nicola Peltz.
A pal said: 'Romeo and Kim are both young and they had a lovely time together but at that age things don't always last forever and they decided to split up.
'They have been friendly since and have even been at the same venues. It's a huge shame, particularly as David and Victoria really adored her and thought she made Romeo happy but it wasn't to be.
'It happened a couple of weeks ago and relations have remained friendly between them.'
Kim, is the well-heeled granddaughter of renowned post-war sculptor and painter William Turnbull, while her father Alex Turnbull and uncle Johnny were part of the post-punk band 23 Skidoo, formed in 1979.
She dated Madonna and Guy Ritchie's son Rocco, and through that connection was part of a tightknit friendship group in 2016 which included Brooklyn.
Kim and Brooklyn were undeniably close for a brief period – as photographs of them together at the time show - but suggestions that they were ever an item are wide of the mark.
That Kim has now been 'thrown to the wolves' as the reason behind the family row is 'deeply upsetting' to Brooklyn's parents and brothers.
US website TMZ wrote at the time: 'Sources say Brooklyn and Nicola were told to show up to the main celebrations or they wouldn't get a chance to see the family... leaving the two saddened because they simply won't be around Brooklyn's brother Romeo and his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull.'

28 Years Later's incendiary Jimmy Savile twist: All your questions, answered
Contains spoilers for 28 Years Later Now then, now then. When I attended a press screening for 28 Years Later the week before release, a note sent with the tickets asked us not to spoil the ending in our reviews. This is a common ploy by publicists seeking to build buzz and intrigue, and often the result is disappointing. (Think a Marvel character you've never heard of appearing for 15 seconds.) However, when Danny Boyle and Alex Garland's excellent zombie epic ends with the introduction of Jack O'Connell's character Sir Jimmy Crystal and his band of murderous desperadoes, all of whom are dressed in colour-coded outfits that come over as a cross between the Power Rangers and the infamous Jimmy Savile, to the accompaniment of the Teletubbies ' 'One, two, three, four!' on the soundtrack, it is a jaw-droppingly provocative and incendiary ending. For once, it really did need to be left for audiences to discover it for themselves, rather than having it spoilt by critics. The film makes great play of (specifically British) audiences' knowledge of the chilling spectacle of Savile, a DJ, presenter of the wish-fulfilment show Jim'll Fix It and, we now know, notorious rapist, paedophile and suspected necrophile. He has become rightly despised as one of the most evil men that Britain has ever seen since his death in 2011. Even during his lifetime, and fame, there was clearly something not right about him. Savile would make black humoured jokes about how he had only evaded detection for his many crimes because of his charity work – jokes that no longer seem very funny – and took an almost perverse pride in how his closeness to the establishment allowed him to groom and assault his victims with impunity. Overseas audiences will inevitably know less about him, and so should probably watch the comprehensive 2022 Netflix documentary Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story, which explores his crimes in sickening depth. Perhaps surprisingly, he has been largely kept out of fiction. A recent Steve Coogan drama, The Reckoning, explored his grim life and depraved antics, and it was also suggested in series three of Line of Duty that the character was somehow involved with the (fictitious) details of child sexual abuse as depicted in the show. However, film-makers know that accusations of opportunism and bad taste might be made if he was to be included in mainstream drama. These accusations have now indeed been levelled, in some quarters, against 28 Years Later and its makers. To say that the ending has proved divisive, especially in the United States, would be an understatement. (Not that the twist has hurt the film's box office performance; half its $60 million opening weekend haul has come from the US.) Yet Boyle and Garland have never been film-makers who have taken the easy option – think about the various outrageous and shocking scenes in their films, encompassing everything from Trainspotting and Ex Machina to their previous collaborations, Sunshine and 28 Days Later – and so this full-strength conclusion to the picture not only sets up next year's sequel, The Bone Temple, very intriguingly, but also leaves audiences with numerous questions which deserve answering. Who are Sir Jimmy Crystal and his gang? The introduction of the presumably villainous Sir Jimmy in the closing moments of 28 Years Later gives an already unsettling film a horrific jolt. As he and his companions – also all referred to as 'Jimmy' – set about murdering a group of 'infected', as the film terms its zombies, with extreme, gleeful prejudice, it's a grim and shocking moment that brings A Clockwork Orange – a clear Boyle touchstone throughout his career – to mind. Yet the most disturbing aspect of the scene is that Sir Jimmy, and the other Jimmys, are all attired in hideous-coloured tracksuits, lengthy blonde wigs and have their hands festooned with jewellery: a clear homage to Savile. O'Connell – who, with his appearance as a sadistic Irish vampire in Ryan Coogler's Sinners, is surely becoming 2025's go-to villain for horror films – is too big a star to appear for as small a role as this. Audiences are promised that the Jimmys will return in a big way for The Bone Temple. When Sir Jimmy says to Alfie Williams's young protagonist Spike 'Let's be friends', the moment is chilling, not least because it seems quite clear that the Jimmys are not the kind of people anyone would want to be friends with. Yet the film has already teased his introduction with enormous sophistication. It's the young Jimmy who we meet in the terrifying prologue, set, appropriately enough, 28 years before the rest of the film. The boy is the sole survivor of the Teletubbies-inflected infected massacre and the recipient of his fanatical clergyman father's crucifix, which he's seen holding when he's reintroduced. There are lots of hints as to his reappearance, too, which many viewers may only pick up on with a second viewing. When Spike and his father Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) head to the mainland for Spike's first kill of an infected, they find the body of a tortured figure hung up upside-down in an abandoned farmhouse, with the word 'Jimmy' carved onto it; the same word is scrawled all over the outside walls. From these little clues, it's quite clear that the Jimmy gang is a bunch of murderous sadists who are intent on causing as much mayhem and torment as they can. How and why, and how they've managed to survive for so long amidst the infected, will (presumably) be explained in the second film. Why are the Jimmys in thrall to Jimmy Savile? Although the Jimmy characters are not named in the film, the end credits reveal that they all have a suitably grim collection of surnames. We can expect to meet Jimmy Fox, Jimmy Snake, Jimmy Jones, the unimaginatively named Jimmy Jimmy, the more imaginatively named Jimmy S___e and their female equivalent, Jimmina. No doubt all of them are going to play a greater role in the sequel, but the small clues that we are given about their dispositions in 28 Years Later are that they're violent, have hideous taste in clothes and are all followers of O'Connell's Sir Jimmy: a self-bestowed title, unlike the knighthood bestowed upon Savile. It isn't made clear in this picture as to why they should all be fascinated by the ghoulish disc jockey and TV presenter, but Boyle and Garland have suggested in interviews that it all fits with the film's warped sense of England and Englishness. As Boyle told Business Insider: '[Savile is] as much to do with pop culture as he is to do with sportswear, to do with cricket, to do with the honours system. It's all kind of twisting in this partial remembrance, clinging onto things and then recreating them as an image for followers.' (Incidentally, Boyle himself was offered a knighthood after directing the opening ceremony for the 2012 Olympics, and turned it down, saying 'it was insensitive of them to ask me, to be honest.') 🎬 | Bts photo of Erin Kellyman with the Jimmy gang on the set of '28 Years Later'. — Erin Kellyman Updates (@updateskellyman) June 23, 2025 Yet there's another telling detail that has been picked up on by eagle-eyed viewers who have been swift to disseminate it on Reddit forums. The film's prologue takes place around the same time that the first film was released, in the early years of the millennium, when Savile may have been regarded with suspicion (see the 2000 Louis Theroux documentary When Louis Met Jimmy) but was still seen by many (at least publicly) as a noble figure who had given his life, and fortune, to charity. Therefore, in this alternative world, Savile was never unmasked as a predator, but instead continued to be regarded as a hero by many, meaning that the 'Jimmys' are not following in the footsteps of a disgraced and evil man, but instead believe him to be a secular saint of sorts. That the audience knows differently is all part of the intrigue. As one commenter observed, 'I like the theory that they think Jim will fix it as per the TV show and save them from the infected.' What is the point of the Savile allusion? When the Jimmys appear, it's a deliberately shocking moment, both in terms of the violence and then the realisation that there might be worse things out there than the infected. This is something of a homage to the original 28 Days Later, when it becomes clear that Christopher Eccleston's demented army major and his men want to force female survivors of the infected into sexual slavery for their own perverse ends. Yet Boyle and Garland are both careful film-makers who would never include a detail as provocative as this simply to elicit a shocked reaction. Instead, Garland has argued that the ending is of a piece with the rest of the film's themes. He suggested that Savile was a 'trippy, f----- up kaleidoscope', which chimes with the film's similarly phantasmagorical evocation of Englishness, visual throwbacks to Olivier's Henry V and Agincourt included. Yet it's also because the Jimmy character – who has obviously been traumatised from a young age by seeing his friends and family torn to pieces by infected – has created his own version of reality from a mixture of half-remembered pop culture allusions, just as Alex in A Clockwork Orange is inspired in his ultraviolence by everything from Beethoven to Singin' in the Rain. 'The thing about looking back is how selective memory is,' Garland has said. 'It cherry picks and it has amnesia, and crucially, it also misremembers. We are living in a time right now which is absolutely dominated by a misremembered past.' Why is the ending so controversial? In the United States, where Savile is barely known, if at all, the ending has caused significant confusion and even disappointment amongst audiences, who have been mystified as to who these shell-suit wearing, blonde wigged antagonists are supposed to be. As one cinemagoer sighed on X, 'I personally don't appreciate having to do some homework to appreciate a sequence that's otherwise random to end a film.' It is also a (deliberately?) confusing aspect of the picture that the Aaron Taylor-Johnson character's name of 'Jamie' is close enough to 'Jimmy' for many viewers initially to believe that he is the grown-up version of the boy in the opening scene, safely escaped and now living in what seems to be comparative safety. The other argument against the ending, and what it sets up for the next film, is simply that the appropriation of Savile as a pop-cultural feature is inappropriate and tasteless. Certainly, the film's anti-Brexit subtext, suggesting that Britain is an isolated, backwards island that has been cut off from Europe by force, is unlikely to endear it to those who continue to think Brexit was a good and necessary idea. (Boyle and Garland are clearly not Brexiteers.) Hinting that this isolation has led to the creation of Savile cultists is a provocative and deeply controversial way to conclude the film. Finally, the jolt of black humour that comes moments after the deeply affecting conclusion of the storyline involving Spike's dying mother Isla (Jodie Comer) is an incongruous way to conclude the film that will be a true love-hate development. There will be those who believe that its kamikaze insanity ruins an otherwise thoughtful and serious film, and others who applaud its audacity. What does all this mean for the sequel? The choice of Candyman and the Marvels film-maker Nia DaCosta to direct the sequel, The Bone Temple – which has already been filmed and will be released in January – is an intriguing decision, given that DaCosta is a New York-raised American director who is tackling the follow-up to a film about Britain and Britishness. However, the idea that DaCosta will bring an outsider's eye to a film that Boyle has already teased is about 'the nature of evil' can only be a good thing. Just as Boyle brought his own inimitable perspective to the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire (a film that, for understandable but regrettable reasons, he now claims he would not direct if he was offered the opportunity), so DaCosta has a chance to take the Savile-heavy mythology that The Bone Temple will inevitably be imbued with and make it not only comprehensible to American audiences but terrifying. Savile may be a British phenomenon but the traits that he embodied – the manipulation of power and what evil can be unchecked if those in positions of authority look the other way – are truly universal ones, and this brief tease should be a curtain-raiser for something extraordinarily dark and provocative, coming our way in a few months.

Watch shock moment new bombshells arrive in Love Island villa – as Helena makes huge u-turn on Harry
THIS IS the shock moment where FOUR new bombshells arrive in the Love Island villa. Last night's episode of the long-running ITV2 dating show saw a text rock the contestants. 7 7 7 After the islanders were gathered round the fire pit, it was revealed there would be a recoupling. On Love Island, the girls will choose which guys they want to couple up with.

Poppy, 22, and 26-year-old Caprice were joined by Giorgio,33, and personal trainer Will, 25. And it seems they have come to cause trouble in the villa as they don't mind the prospect of splitting up established couples to get what they want. Before her stint, Poppy exclaimed: "I'm a girl's girl but I don't mind causing a bit of drama." This was while Caprice admitted that she won't mind splitting up a couple, saying: "I take no prisoners, basically." The caption on Instagram read: "One new Villa, four hot new arrivals. "Helena tells Dejon things aren't done with her and Harry, plus a text rocks the Villa and could change everything."

Heidi Klum goes totally topless in just nude tights for new selfie video as she gets ready backstage of Loreal ad
HEIDI Klum knows how to cause a stir – and her latest Instagram post left fans feeling flustered. The legendary model shared behind-the-scenes pics from her time on set for make-up brand L'Oreal, donning a royal blue look complete with matching eye make up. 5 But as stunning as the look was – including elaborate black and white eyeliner with a bronzed glow – Heidi drew most attention when she wore next to nothing. In a cheeky behind-the-scenes snap of her getting ready, Heidi stripped down to nothing but a pair of flash-covered underwear. Covering her breasts with her arm, Heidi pulled a sultry pose to the camera in the Instagram Story, before it cut off. She then cut to a falafel and salad bowl, which made her declare: "Yum yum yum yum, yummy!" The Stories then followed through to how the rest of the look was completed, with Heidi sitting in a towel as she got her make-up done. French braids were added to the front of her hair for a 60s inspired look, with the eyeliner framing her eyes which had a blend of white and blue shadow. Heidi has never been afraid of showing off her enviable figure and teasing her audience. Earlier this month she got pulses racing by posing in a flesh-coloured thong bikini in order to water her garden. Dancing around her vegetable patch with a giant hose, Heidi jokily posed with the hose between her legs before pouting at the camera. Shortly afterwards, she switched bikini tops into a baby blue number, and added jeans and a jean jacket in order to attend an event for swimswear brand Calzedonia. Heidi has been in the spotlight for over 30 years, becoming a household name after winning a national modeling contest in Germany in 1992. In 1998, she broke out into the States when she appeared on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. She later became a Victoria's Secret Angel, remaining with the brand until 2010. Since then, Heidi's turned her attention to TV presenting as well as modelling for clothing brands, most notably fronting design challenge show Project Runway, and judging America's Got Talent. She's also become famed for her annual Halloween costumes – which often involve elaborate prosthetics to completely transform her and husband Tom Kaulitz. Over the years she has appeared as a worm (with Tom as a battered fisherman), an male and female version of E.T, and a flesh-eating alien with tubes coming out of her boobs. 5 5 5
