'Thank you for always being there for us and for cheering us on in everything we do, for your entertaining texts and the pics you send us every day, for happily letting all of us (including mum) take the mick out of you every dinner and for always just standing there so unbothered while we scream with laughter at you.

Earlier this month, The U.S. Sun revealed Kris has been "struggling" to sell her family's iconic Hidden Hills mansion - as interested buyers complained the massive $13.5m price tag is 'way too high." All About Kris Jenner Kris Jenner is the matriarch of the Kardashian-Jenner family, who rose to fame with her six children after starring on the E! reality series Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Here's what Kris has been up to: Kris was first married to the late Robert Kardashian, famously known as O.J. Simpson's defense attorney in his 1995 murder trial. They shared four children: daughters, Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe, and a son, Robert The former couple were married from 1978 until 1991. Following their divorce, Kris tied the knot with former Olympian, Bruce Jenner, who also appeared on KUWTK. The pair shared two daughters, Kendall and Kylie. They split in 2015, around the time that Bruce transitioned and changed her name to Caitlyn. Kris met her current boyfriend, Corey Gamble, in August 2014, and they have been together ever since. Kris manages her daughters' widely-successful careers and they've continued their reality TV run with The Kardashians on Hulu, shortly after KUWTK ended. The home would be familiar to Keeping Up With the Kardashians fans, as it was a staple of filming the reality show for over 11 years. According to an insider, the house 'hasn't had any good enough offers.' 'People have complained it's way overpriced for what it is. There has also been a lot of concern over wildfire danger and the lack of insurance available for that. 'The home is gorgeous, everyone agrees on that. But in order to get someone to bite, they'll need to make the price lower,' the real estate source claimed.

BBC presenter becomes choked up during heartfelt Father's Day announcement
BBC One presenter Duncan Newmarch has jerked the nation's tears once again thanks to his Father's Day tribute. Newmarch has been presenting BBC shows for the last 21 years, introducing some of the channel's biggest programmes. However, his latest piece of work evoked an especially emotional response from viewers at home. Just before announcing tonight's episode of Race Across the World, Newmarch took a moment to recognise Father's Day. The BBC One broadcaster read out: 'Whether you are with your dad, chatting on the phone, or just missing him… happy Father's Day from BBC One.' Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. Newmarch took to X to share a clip of his announcement, adding the caption: 'A difficult line for me to read this year. Hope you're with your dad or have spoken to him.' The famous voice lost his dad, Douglas Newmarch, in July 2016; hence why those particular words were so difficult to read, as he was doing so for the first time since his own father's death. @CHG3899 took to X to share their thoughts on the special announcement, writing: 'Aww that was lovely Duncan.' Another X user, @cl_clarke, expressed their connection to the announcement: 'Missing him…still…33 years for me this year.' @chriswilliams76 also remembered one of Newmarch's previous emotional voice-overs: 'It's nearly five years since your continuity piece before the Strictly final went viral about the fact that Christmas wasn't the Christmas we had all hoped for…' Indeed, this isn't the first time Newmarch has made viewers cry, as he was responsible for the viral announcement before the Strictly Come Dancing final in 2020. In December that year, as the UK was facing stricter Covid-19 rules, Newmarch spread a heartwarming message in an attempt to keep spirits high in those tough Tier 4 days. The message said: 'Now, in a year that has kept us apart, whether you're watching in Tyne and Wear, Devon, Berkshire, or Lincolnshire… we are all watching BBC One together.' Newmarch tweeted following the announcement, expressing the raw emotion behind it: 'Thank you for the kind comments about my line into the @bbcstrictly final. 'After this afternoon's news I had to rewrite a handful of scripts as they didn't seem appropriate. This is why live announcers can make a difference.' The announcement soon spread as his words resonated with so many people across the nation who were all losing hope in togetherness as the country faced the unknown. Many viewers expressed their gratitude on social media, with one user tweeting: 'It made me cry a little bit, because it was unexpected but perfectly put. Thank you.' Others praised the sincerity and warmth of his words, highlighting the comfort they found in his announcement. More Trending Newmarch was also praised by TV critic Scott Bryan, who said: 'As many people have pointed out, those touching poignant words came from @DuncanNewmarch.' He later wrote back to declare his pride for his profession, saying: 'Thanks Scott. After the PM's announcement, some of tonight's lines (written yesterday) just didn't work so I had some last-minute rewrites. View More » 'Here's to the live announcers across all channels.'
