"I've been spending every day with her since obviously she's here by herself, so making sure she's OK and stuff. "But she's struggling a bit with the attention aspect. "Because before she worked a normal job, and had no followig, she's never had this amount of attention in her life.

Cach added: "Once she goes back to America I don't think it will be that bad ... it will be more like she can breath.

Cach and Toni WIN Love Island and bag £50k as raunchiest ever series ends "She loves it as well but when she comes away from it she deeps it and gets overwhelmed, like not being able to do shopping. "She'll get used to it and I feel like it won't be this tense for too long." Best pals Shakira and Toni battled it out to win Love Island with their partners Harry and Cach. Toni was the show's first American bombshell and fans loved her rollercoaster journey on the show.

Despite Cach breaking down in tears over the embarrassment of his public split from Toni, he forgave her. They started up their relationship once again and on their final night in the villa said "I love you". 6 6

MasterChef star and food critic set to transform sleepy village pub into chic hotel and fine Italian restaurant
A MASTERCHEF star has announced his plans for an exciting new venture. TV foodie William Sitwell is set to turn a village pub in Somerset into a posh hotel and Italian restaurant. 4 The MasterChef regular and top restaurant critic has revealed he has snapped up The White Hart in Wiveliscombe after it recently shut its doors. Signs suddenly appeared on the pub saying it was 'temporarily closed' sparking fears it had gone for good. Food pro Sitwell — who is a regular guest judge on the hit BBC show — says he's stepping in to give the place a new lease of life. The GB News commentator told his 25,000 Instagram followers he wants to transform the spot into a 'chic hotel and Italian restaurant' to keep the much-loved site alive. The Biting Talk podcast host revealed: "STOP PRESS!! NEWS!!! As The White Hart, Wiveliscombe, West Somerset, closes I'm delighted to announce my plan for it to rise again as a chic hotel and Italian restaurant. "Casa Wivey will be a fabulous, accessible family restaurant with a great bar and work space and I'm teaming up with the best in the business in the area to make it happen. "After 25 years writing about food and drink this is my first serious venture into the hospitality business alongside the hugely successful Sitwell Supper Club. "Join me in on my journey and become an investor. Click on the link above for more info. Let's do this!! Long Live Wivey! Keep Wivey Great!" Fellow chefs offered their congratulations. John Torode wrote: "Bl**dy brilliant... happy to help where I can!!" Phil Vickery agreed: "Great news and wishing you every success." BBC botches bid to edit out sacked duo Gregg Wallace & John Torode from new Masterchef amid calls to axe scandal-hit show Aldo Zilli penned: "Best of luck mate finally you will be on the other side." Somerset residents praised: "Wow, looks forward to watching what happens and visit as live locally." Another commended: "Very exciting and brilliant news for West Somerset!" "Brilliant News and excellent plan," noted a third happy local. The star is set to relaunch the historic 17th century coaching inn alongside Jon Coward and his wife Millie, who operate various pubs in West Somerset, including the Carew Arms in Crowcombe. New venue Casa Wivey will serve classic Italian dishes, pastries and open ciabattas and will also include a bar specialising in negronis and prosecco. The chic hotel will also boast 16 individually-designed ensuite rooms and co-working space. Sitwell wrote: 'I believe there is a real need and a keen appetite for such an establishment, a convivial, comfortable place of great service, fabulous food and drink and one that can provide a much-needed aspect of hospitality to the area. "Not to mention providing local employment and investment in the supply of local ingredients.' The food writer, editor, broadcaster and critic is the former editor of Waitrose Food. He has also appeared on a number of TV shows including Britain's Best Dish and Michelin Stars: The Madness of Perfection. Sitwell left the editorship of Waitrose Food magazine in 2018 after mocking vegans. In an email to a freelance journalist, he suggested a piece should be written exposing vegans 'hypocrisy' and joking they should be force-fed meat. He immediately apologised, but stepped down with immediate effect regardless. 4 4

Mystery as Molly-Mae snubs Tommy Fury's BBC3 doc entirely after skipping launch – despite his ‘happier than ever' claim
MOLLY-MAE Hague has sparked concern for her relationship after snubbing partner Tommy Fury's BBC3 documentary entirely. It comes after The Sun was first to reveal why the Maebe founder didn't attend the Manchester premiere of the 26-year-old boxer's TV show earlier this week. 6 6 6 Meanwhile, Tommy was left squirming after he was grilled on their exact relationship status and engagement during an interview on BBC Breakfast. Current social media snaps showed mum of one Molly-Mae, 26, enjoying a sunny break away with her best pal, Tayla-Blue, in images posted to Memree founder Tayla's page. Yet despite her other half's major career moment - which has seen BBC show The Good. The Bad. The Fury, already hit screens - she has stayed silent. On her Instagram grid, Molly-Mae's most recent post was uploaded three days ago and focussed solely on her "extra special" time at work. She has refrained from mentioning Tommy's latest media project on her Instagram Stories - keeping her page upload-free - despite their claim they are "happier than ever." Meanwhile, it has been Tayla who has shared snaps of her daughter Storie and Tommy and Molly Mae's little girl Bambi, aged two, on their girls trip. Molly-Mae and Tommy who met on Love Island in 2019, split last summer. They confirmed their reunion, much to the delight of fans, back in May.

"She is obviously back with Tommy but it's his night and doesn't want to overshadow it. "It's been a funny time for Molly - she's very thick skinned but she's had a lot to deal with and isn't used to backlash." Another source added to The Sun that Molly was "away working" and very busy which caused her to miss the event.
