Fearne Cotton's catty response to pregnant Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing revealed after they broke rules in Buckingham Palace
Fearne Cotton has shared a very catty response to Pregnant Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing after they filmed an eyebrow-raising clip inside Buckingham Palace on Wednesday.
The clip saw the couple poke fun at the cringe Meghan and Harry 'Baby Mama' dance as they twerked on the historical Grand Staircase built for Queen Victoria of the royal residence after being invited as official ambassadors for The King's Trust.
It showed them gyrating on the sweeping red-carpeted and gilded staircase which leads up to the State Rooms, flanked by portraits of members of the Royal Family.
Guests who are invited to the Palace are informed by the Royal Collection Trust that there is 'strictly no photography or filming at all is permitted inside Buckingham Palace' so this was a clear rule break - leading the royal family account to comment 'we see you' in the comments.
Sharing the video to Instagram Jamie joked about breaking the rules to which prompted Fearne to leave a catty response.
Taking to the comment section, the TV personality penned: 'You also had your pap camera out with a flash. Think of what the flash has done to those priceless paintings.'

The former Made In Chelsea favourites - who now hosts a show on Radio One - are expecting their first baby together.
It is unclear whether the post was a dig at the former royals, who sparked huge debate after the Duchess of Sussex posted a jaw-dropping video on Instagram of them doing the viral craze four years ago in the delivery suite shortly before she gave birth to their daughter, Princess Lilibet, earlier this month.
Jamie, who posted his video to his own Instagram account with 1.6million followers after attending a glittering reception at the royal residence to celebrate The King's Trust charity, clearly knew he was bending the rules as he wrote: 'They said we couldn't film in Buckingham Palace.'
While the moment was most definitely a breach in protocol and could have sparked a royal meltdown, palace aides fortunately found the funny side.
Its official Instagram account 'theroyalfamily' replied to the post saying: 'We see you' accompanied by a pair of eyes and a wink emojis.
The King's Trust entered the conversation in the spirit of the occasion, saying: 'All of our attendees are very well behaved' with the same look and a laughing emoji.
Another follower posted cheekily: 'When you get to do it at the Palace but Harry and Meghan couldn't lol'.
Another remarked in response to the Royal Family's reaction: 'In a world at times worrying and serious this comment was so needed.'

Proof that no offence was taken, a palace aide told the Mail: 'I'm sure it was done in a spirit of fun, and of course aligned to Jamie's wonderful support for The King's Trust Awards - even if it's not something we would greatly encourage every guest to attempt.'
Referring to 'theroyalfamily' account's official response, they added most definitely with tongue-in-cheek: 'Proof that from time to time the Royal Family account has a sense of humour too.
'As for Jamie, may we recommend a visit to the Tower of London. Hashtag Winkyfacelolz.'
The King's Trust was set up by King Charles when he was Prince of Wales in 1976 to help disadvantaged young people get back into education, work and training.
It has since gone on to help more than one million young people and is considered one of the biggest and most effective charities of its kind in the country.
Jamie, who is a supporter of its work, attended a reception at Buckingham Palace yesterday alongside the likes of George and Amal Clooney to highlight its annual awards for some of the charity's greatest success stories.

The 7 shows vanishing from your TV screens in just DAYS after major overhaul – binge them before they're gone
SEVEN popular shows are vanishing from Netflix in a matter of days – so if they're on your list, now's the time to start watching. Viewers in the UK will lose access to the titles on Monday, July 1, as Netflix prepares for a major shake-up to both its content and interface. 2 The changes come as part of a larger overhaul that's already seen a wave of titles removed in recent months, and July looks set to be one of the busiest yet. Among the shows leaving are Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Loudermilk (Seasons 1 to 3), and the anime series Overlord (Seasons 1 to 4). Also departing is the children's favourite Rabbids Invasion (Season 4), Rubble & Crew (Season 1), and the classic magical girl reboot Sailor Moon Crystal (Seasons 1 to 3). Fans of nostalgic family dramas will also lose The Wonder Years (Seasons 1 to 2), which is being pulled as part of a broader Disney Television removal. These removals are largely due to expiring licensing deals and content rotations that happen behind the scenes. But there's more to it this time – with a brand new Netflix home screen redesign just around the corner. The streaming giant is launching its first major redesign for TVs in 12 years. Dubbed 'Eclipse' inside the company, the new interface promises a sleeker, simpler experience that encourages viewers to press play faster and discover content more easily. The layout will shift the main navigation bar to the top of the screen and reduce the number of visible titles at once, focusing instead on bigger images, more dynamic previews and video clips that auto-play after just a few seconds. 'The real goal of this is, how do we make it easier, how do we make it simpler, faster for you to make a great decision?' said Greg Peters, co-CEO of Netflix. One of the most notable features is 'responsive recommendations.' These will tailor suggestions almost instantly, based on what users are actively searching for. So if a viewer looks up thrillers or family films, their home screen will begin updating in real time to show more titles in that category – a big improvement from the previous system, which could take up to a day to refresh. Eunice Kim, the company's chief product officer, said the redesign is meant to serve both types of viewers: those who know exactly what they want, and those who don't. 'The way that the old home page is built, you kind of see box art, box art, box art, box art,' she said. 'It's kind of suboptimal, right?' The new layout aims to slow viewers down just enough to take notice of what's on offer, with titles now showing labels like 'highly rewatched,' '13 weeks in Top 10,' or ' Oscar nominee.' The changes also aim to make live content more prominent – like football games or special events – by showing live animation and movement directly on the home screen. July will also see the departure of several films, including The Equalizer 3 starring Denzel Washington, which is also leaving on July 1. Later in the month, the comedy Dumb Money will exit the platform as well. Overall, at least nine Netflix Originals are scheduled to depart in July, with more likely to follow throughout the year – joining the 250+ titles already gone. Netflix's redesign could have ripple effects across the industry. For years, rival streamers like Disney+, Prime Video, and Max have taken cues from Netflix's interface. With Netflix now breaking from the row-upon-row layout, others may soon follow suit. 2

Call The Midwife fans convinced show will end in heartbreaking death as they work out final storyline
CALL The Midwife fans have been left convinced that the show will end in a tragic death after news the main series could come to an end. The popular BBC family drama will come to a close following the conclusion of the 15th series which is currently being filmed and is due to air next year. 3 3 3 It has left fans speculating at to how the programme might reach its conclusion and some have predicted a tragic death could be on the cards for one of its most popular characters. One character who looks set to meet her match during the show's finale is Sister Monica Joan. Whilst not confirmed, fans have begun to cast suspicion that she could fall victim to a death in the programme's final episode. The character, played by actress Judy Parfitt, has been a part of the show since the very first series and has been one of the drama's fan-favourite characters. Taking to Reddit, it led one fan to quip that they could kill off their longest-serving character for shock value. Speculating what is to come: "Something tells me that something is going to happen to Sister Monica Joan. "I think it's going to be a two part episode and the series will end with implications for the upcoming film... and maybe something for the prequel series." Another added: "Maybe so. I've honestly been waiting for Sister Monica Joan to leave because she was a bit of a nuisance at times and very openly disobedient and often willful. "The actress is wonderful but the character has been shown less and less the past couple of years." Whilst many fans were sad to see the programme come to an end, others argued that now felt the right time to call it a day. Call The Midwife fans in tears as beloved Nonnatus House resident dies in emotional scenes They added online: "I love the series but honestly it was time for it to end anyway. Maybe even beyond time. Especially after Lucille left." As someone else penned: "I'm not too sorry about the show ending — it's had a fabulous run, but the writing and storylines just aren't what they were in the early years." However, the BBC have clarified that whilst Call the Midwife's main series may be paused - the show's prequel and spin-off movie mean the show will still be on the air for years to come. They said: "The BBC would like to reassure fans that Call The Midwife will remain at the heart of the BBC for years to come. "As previously announced, there are two Christmas specials, a new series, a film and prequel series, before a sixteenth series in due course. "Call the Midwife isn't going anywhere.' Up to 11 million people watched the highly-anticipated episodes at any time since it first launched in 2012. It has won numerous awards including National Television Awards, TV Choice Awards and has received several BAFTA nominations. Call The Midwife: A breakdown Call The Midwife first came onto the airwaves in 2012 and has been seen by millions. But what is it about? Series one: Set in early 1957 and it explored the 'Baby Boom generation, which included themes of poverty and post-war immigration. Series two: Set in 1958 and it showed gas and air being introduced for pain relief for the first time. It ended with the Nonnatus House building being condemned. Series three: Set in 1959 and it depicted gruesome conditions such as cystic fibrosis, polio and it showed the midwives in the context on prisons. Series four: Set in 1960 under the threat of nuclear warfare and the emergency response guidelines issued by the local Civil Defence Corp. Other themes included LGBT rights, and syphilis. Series five: Set in 1961 and it shows the care of patients with conditions such as Typhoid and strokes. We also saw the effects of thalidomide, the introduction of the contraceptive pill.

It was also notable for the introduction of Reggie, a recurring character with Down Syndrome. Series seven: Set in 1963 and we see Nurse Lucille Anderson for the first time. We also see the show address conditions such as dementia, huntington's disease, leprosy and meningitis Series eight: Set in 1964 and it bravely covered the issue of abortion, which was not legal for another three years in 1967. Sickle cell disease, cleft lip, cleft palate and intersex people also featured. Series nine: Diptheria was at the centre of the ninth instalment in 1965, and it was notable for featuring a blind expectant mother. But the role of Nonnatus House within the community also came into question. Series ten: Set in 1966, Nonnatus House has a rival in the form of the private Lady Emily Clinic in Mayfair. PKU, diabetes and the controversy surrounding abortion were central themes. Series eleven: Set in 1967 amid the housing crisis and a scabies epidemic. The show was rocked by a train crash right next to Nonnatus House.

Michael Eavis on Glastonbury Festival's politics amid Kneecap row
Glastonbury Festival has opened, with founder Sir Michael Eavis stating that attendees who disagree with the event's political leanings "can go somewhere else." Irish rap trio Kneecap remains on the line-up despite controversy, after one member was charged with a terror offence, a decision supported by organiser Emily Eavis. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer commented that it would not be "appropriate" for Kneecap to perform following the charge related to displaying a Hezbollah flag. This year's festival features headline acts including The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo, with Sir Rod Stewart performing the Sunday teatime legends slot. Organisers have introduced changes for this year, such as selling fewer tickets to prevent overcrowding and transforming the Shangri-La area into a greener space.
