Marnie Simpson has given birth.
The 33-year-old reality star - who is best known for having appeared on the MTV reality series Geordie Shore - and her husband Casey Johnson have welcomed their third child, a baby girl, into the world.
Marnie - who has sons Rox, five, Oax, three, with her spouse - shared the news of their new addition on her Instagram Story, and insisted both mum and baby are "doing really well".
Alongside a bed selfie, she wrote: "Baby girl is here safe and sound! We're Both doing really well and recovering. Shes so beautiful and perfect!
"I feel so blessed and still feels surreal I have a daughter. Gonna enjoy this baby bubble and get back to socials once I've recovered fully. Thanks for all the amazing messages it really means so much. (sic)"
Casey gushed that he is "obsessed" with his little girl and said the family is "completed".
He wrote on his Instagram Story: "Thank you everyone for the lovely messages, I can't reply right now but our little girl is safe and sound and im obsessed! she's completed the family and ©marns done so well, very proud of you as always, such a strong girl who always amazes me, love you (sic)"
Marnie announced her pregnancy back in February, captioning a video montage of the first scan on the app: "Here we go again …"
Before the arrival of her second baby, the former Celebrity Big Brother star discovered she was expecting whilst she was filming a TV show.
She said: "I was filming a TV show in September and we planned on trying after that. But during filming I had really weird symptoms.
"I constantly felt sick, my gums were bleeding and I felt dizzy, but I just put it down to it being an activity-based show and the fact it was 17-hour days.
"When I was away filming I was messaging Casey and I told him I felt really sick and my boobs were really hurting. I said it could be because I was running around and my muscles hadn't been used in that way before, but Casey said he thought I was pregnant.
"While we were doing that show I also did a bungee jump! Everyone had to do a medical beforehand and when they took my blood pressure it was really low. My blood pressure has never been low so that was a red flag.
"I told Casey and he said, 'You're definitely pregnant!' So as soon as I got back that night I did a pregnancy test and it came up with 'Pregnant' straight away. We just laughed!"

Kate Bush tribute held on 'Wuthering Heights Day'

A government minister was among dozens of women in Birmingham who took part in an event celebrating writer Emily Brontë and singer Kate Bush. The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever also raised funds for women's charities as the group joined thousands of people across the world recreating the video to Bush's 1978 song Wuthering Heights. Birmingham's inaugural event earlier was organised by The Heath Bookshop, in King's Heath. The proceedings were opened by Home Office minister and Birmingham Yardley MP Jess Phillips. Charities set to benefit from the event include Anawim - Birmingham's Centre for Women and WE:ARE (Women's Empowerment And Recovery Educators). Shop owner Claire Dawes said it was a "great event" to put on "as the local community support the many arts events that happen here and always support charity events." The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever events have previously taken place in locations such as Sydney, Copenhagen, Berlin, Folkestone, and Preston. For the first time this year the event was set to take place on moorland on Penistone Hill, not far from the famous Brontë sister's home in Haworth.

The Spice Girls and Wu-Tang Clan Almost Had Their Own Anime

Now, here's a sentence no one expected to read in the year 2025: Once upon a time, we might have gotten to see the Spice Girls and the Wu-Tang Clan in anime form. In a recent interview with AnimEigo, Lawrence Guinness, a senior VP at Manga Entertainment, distributor of anime such as Perfect Blue and Street Fighter Alpha (and subsidiary of Island Records), revealed the company considered co-producing its own works. Two projects he mentioned would have starred the aforementioned bands, and the Spice Girls idea got far enough along that he had some production stills to show. Had it happened, it'd have been a film called Girl Power: The Anime, courtesy of Production I.G, the studio behind Ghost in the Shell. According to Guinness, Manga had 'very advanced talks' with the British pop group's management at the time this was pitched and would've hopefully appealed to fans of then-popular anime like Studio Ghibli. Even now, Guinness is confident teenage girls 'might've gone to the cinema to see this. In fact, I think you would've stood in a line for a long time to get in to see this. This was the vision. Look, if that's not girl power in action, I don't know what is.' As for the never-realized Wu-Tang project, a series that would have been called The Imperial Warrior, he claimed near everything was in place for the project, except some of the hip-hop group's members didn't sign off on it. His pitch to Island Records founder Chris Blackwell saw Wu-Tang 'challenging the forces of evil through their music and martial arts skills.' The soundtrack and designs for the characters (he mentioned RZA and Ghostface Killah specifically) were 'great,' said Guinness, and it would've been 'revolutionary. That was the project I was proudest of that never happened.' Over the decades, Japanese creators have been open about their love of western music, and artists like the late Prince and Aaliyah have inspired characters in Michiko & Hatchin and My Hero Academia. Making musicians or other celebrities into fictionalized versions of themselves for film and TV is another tale as old as time, and Guinness wanted these two projects to take off to both put Manga on the map and successfully 'synthesize anime with the best of western culture.' When it comes to Wu-Tang Clan, he's sort of gotten his wish, thanks to RZA's involvement in Afro Samurai and developer Brass Lion Entertainment's upcoming action game Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver. As for the Spice Girls, it's a shame they never got their animated due—there are worse ways for a band to be memorialized than an anime movie with some original songs and cheesy action that still holds up years after the fact.

How Tom Cruise & Ana de Armas' Relationship Is Reminding Fans of His Brief Romance With Sofía Vergara

Tom Cruise may have a new love interest — but longtime observers are getting déjà vu. The 63-year-old actor touched down in London this week with Ana de Armas, 37, arriving via private helicopter with her two dogs and former F1 driver David Coulthard in tow. While neither star has confirmed a romance, the jet-setting, the grins, and the lavish gestures are starting to look familiar. Cruise kept it casual in a navy T-shirt and jeans, waving enthusiastically as Ana followed behind in a Vermont sweatshirt and leggings, cradling her Maltese Elvis. Havanese pup Salsa trotted beside her. It looked like a cozy couple moment — and if you ask the internet, maybe something more. More from SheKnows Pamela Anderson & Liam Neeson Can't Keep Their Hands off Each Other - And Fans Are Losing It 'Tom has been showering Ana with gifts ever since they met,' a source told Daily Mail. 'It's his thing, he is thoughtful.' The gifts reportedly began with flowers and books — the latter of which has raised some eyebrows — then escalated to gold bracelets, designer clothes, and globe-hopping getaways. 'Probably the biggest gift he has given her is being able to go anywhere in the world at a moment's notice,' the insider added. 'She loves to travel.' Sound familiar? Cruise pulled the same moves with Sofía Vergara back in 2005, calling her constantly and sending flowers and chocolates after they met at a pre-Oscar party. According to reports, she was briefly dazzled — until she realized she was being 'auditioned' for a role that came with a conversion clause. The romance fizzled when she refused to leave her Catholic faith for Scientology. Cruise reportedly attempted to rekindle the romance back in 2023 with no luck. Cruise's reputation for orchestrated courtship isn't new. Between the Vergara chapter and the much-publicized relationship with Katie Holmes (who allegedly filed for divorce to protect daughter Suri from the Church), Cruise has kept his personal life meticulously private — but often telling in pattern. The Mission Impossible star and de Armas have known each other since Wasp Network in 2019 and are now filming Deeper, a supernatural thriller directed by Doug Liman. 'It's so much fun, and we're definitely working on a lot of things,' the Knives Out star teased in a May Good Morning America interview. 'Not just one but a few projects with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom. And I'm so excited.' Are they just colleagues? Longtime friends? Or is Cruise, once again, trying to script something more? One thing's clear: the gifts are back.
