Married At First Sight UK star to strip off in controversial dating show
A controversial Married At First Sight star is set to take off his clothes and bare it all as Dating Naked UK returns to screens.
Luke Worley has signed up for the new series of Dating Naked UK, meaning he will be completely naked in an attempt to find love. The popular dating show starts on 29th August on Paramount+ with brand new singletons going completely nude in a luxury villa.
When their antics are broadcast, there's no pixilation or censorship. Luke first hit the headlines on Married At First Sight in 2023 when he joined the show in search of love but was axed by producers following a spat with a co-star.
This led to him being targeted by online trolls. However, Luke joined Dating Naked UK hoping to put the past behind him and finally find his perfect match, reports the Daily Star.
A spokesperson for the show said: "Luke has always found it difficult to make meaningful connections. Despite his attempts and outgoing personality, he has always struggled to find love."
Luke also hopes to champion body positivity through his appearance on the show. The spokesperson added: "Luke feels like he's already bared all when it comes to being vulnerable on TV having previously appeared on Married At First Sight."
They went on to say: "But feels strongly about representing the 'normal' men out there who don't fit the stereotypical mould of the perfect body."
Host Rylan Clark has promised that the series will be a television spectacle, hinting at some unexpected comebacks. He stated: "This year we're taking it up a notch, working even harder to help our brilliant cast find their perfect match and battle it out for a £50,000 prize pot.
"I can't wait for you to meet our brand new daters, and maybe a familiar face or two."
Earlier this year, Rylan revealed to the Daily Star Sunday: "What we've got lined up is going to be brilliant. There will be lots of twists and turns."
The show has relocated to a new spot in Panama. An insider from the show shared: "It's all change for the new series. The team found an amazing villa in Panama that looks great on camera.
"It's even more luxurious than the old place. They reckon it will make the new series even steamier because it's such a lovely location. Panama is just stunning."
Dating Naked premieres Friday, 29th August on Paramount+

Star Trek actor reveals more details about Quentin Tarantino's abandoned film
Simon Pegg revealed that Quentin Tarantino 's unmade Star Trek film would have been "bats*** crazy," fitting expectations for a Tarantino project. Pegg, who portrays Montgomery "Scotty" Scott, was given a detailed description of the R-rated script by JJ Abrams and producer Lindsey Weber, though he never read it. Tarantino successfully pitched the film in 2017 but later distanced himself from the project, which was never officially greenlit. Pegg previously indicated that the Star Trek film franchise might be over due to high production costs and lower box office returns compared to other major franchises. However, Pegg now expresses hope for another film following the merger between Paramount and Skydance, as Skydance founder David Ellison supports the Kelvin timeline.

UFC chief Dana White reveals date of the first proposed MMA fight at the White House
Dana White has revealed the date of the anticipated UFC card on the White House lawn, July 4, 2026, which will line up with the 250th birthday for the United States. The UFC President confirmed the date of the White House fight card on Tuesday, one day after the company's historic deal with Paramount was announced. With the new home for the leading mixed martial arts promotion in tow, White simultaneously announced the Independence Day brawls will air live on CBS. 'It is definitely gonna happen,' White said. 'I talked to him last night, him being the president, and I'm flying out there at the end of this month and I'm going to sit down and walk him through all the plans and the renderings. 'We're going to start deciding what he wants and doesn't want. But yeah, it's definitely going to happen.' Trump first announced his intentions to host the UFC at the White House for America's 250th birthday last month as part of his celebrations for Congress passing his 'Big Beautiful Bill'. — Videosareforever99 (@videosaregood) August 12, 2025 The announcement drew plenty of criticism to mix barbarism with patriotism and also support from some in the MMA community. UFC legend Jon Jones made a stunning U-turn on his retirement from fighting after the White House announcement was made, claiming he has re-entered the company's drug-testing pool. In June, White announced Jones would not defend his heavyweight championship and had retired, coming as a major disappointment to fans amid demand for a heavyweight title showdown with Britain's Tom Aspinall. Now, Jones claims he has taken a huge step towards a comeback after re-entering the testing pool - though it remains to be seen whether that is definitely the case - while also hinting that he could return on a potential card at the White House. Jones' status of getting back into the Octagon has not been cleared up in the weeks since. 'Fighting at the White House?' Jones posted on X. 'Just re-entered the testing pool, that lasted for about two weeks. Figured we'd keep everyone's options open.' It was at a UFC card at Madison Square Garden where Jones last fought, a knockout victory over Stipe Miocic last November, where he celebrated the victory with Trump after mimicking his signature dance.

UFC £5.7bn broadcast deal may be 'terrible' for fighters
Retired MMA legend Georges St-Pierre says the UFC's new broadcast deal with Paramount could be "terrible" for UFC announced on Monday it had signed a seven-year deal with Paramount which would bring most pay-per-views to an end in the US - with events appearing on Paramount's streaming service or on CBS TV deal is reportedly worth more than £700m a year, or £5.7bn in total, an incredible increase from the £370m five-year deal the UFC had with ESPN a two-weight UFC champion and an all-time great, questioned where the deal leaves fighters - especially those who negotiated a cut of pay-per-view sales."It could be good for the UFC, as a promoter, [but] terrible for the fighters because when I was competing I was able to have a great argument to negotiate on my contract," St-Pierre told Covers."I could tell the UFC, 'hey, if you want me to do all the promotion, I want to become a partner. I want a piece of the pie to negotiate a part of the pay-per-view revenue'."Because if I'm doing all the promotion, I'm helping you, but you need to help me. You need to make me a partner."So it might be a bad thing for the fighters in a way that they have less leverage [to negotiate more money]."Jake Paul, who has publicly feuded with UFC president Dana White over fighter pay since swapping YouTube for boxing, said athletes now have a "clear picture" of what the UFC's revenue is."No more PPV excuses. Get your worth boys and girls," he biggest stars like Ronda Rousey, St-Pierre and Jon Jones were often given 'PPV points' on top of their fight purse, allowing them to take a cut of the overall sales from any fight night they were involved with. Most UFC fighters have either a flat fee per event or a show and seperate win fee, while there is also a cut of the UFC's sponsorship deal with their clothing partner heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall said on the Ariel Helwani Show, external he was not sure how the new model would affect fighter Aspinall will headline a PPV event, UFC 321, in new broadcast deal will kick in at the start of 2026 and after initial reports stated the PPV model would end completely, White said there was still the possibility of a few standalone PPV events each deal only applies to the US, with TNT Sports the UFC's broadcast partner in the UFC has used PPVs as a revenue generator since its first event in reports indicated PPV sales have been decreasing in recent years. The UFC staged 14 PPV events in 2024 in the US that were about £60 says the fighters will benefit from the increased exposure in the new broadcast deal, but has made no mention of any financial benefits.
