Alex Jones had 'no idea' about complaints against Jenas
The One Show's Alex Jones has said she had "no idea" about complaints made against her former co-presenter Jermaine Jenas. The former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder was removed from the presenting team at BBC's Match Of The Day and The One Show following alleged issues relating to workplace conduct. Before he was sacked in August, Jenas had also been a regular pundit on sports programmes and a presenter on BBC Radio 5 Live. Jones, 48, who co-presented with Jenas on The One Show, told the Big Issue she did not know about the complaints until he had left. She said: "I very much take people on face value. But with JJ [Jenas] I didn't know what was going on. "I had no idea. I thought he was taking extended leave. "The BBC didn't share with me what was going on until they actually dealt with it. And, you know, they did what they thought was right. "If that was my daughter and she felt uncomfortable with someone's behaviour, I hope that whatever company she was working for would deal with it swiftly as well." After being sacked from the BBC, Jenas apologised, saying he had done "nothing illegal" and that "inappropriate messages" sent were "between two consenting adults". Months later, Jenas' wife, Ellie Penfold, announced the couple had split up after 16 years together. In a statement on her Instagram story, Penfold said: "I never imagined I would have to share something so personal with the public, but given the situation, I feel it's necessary. "After 16 years together and 4 wonderful children, Jermaine and I have decided to part ways. "We will remain friends and continue to co-parent." Jenas returned to broadcasting on TalkSport radio in February after the outlet distanced itself from him in the wake of his departure from the BBC. It is not the first time Jones has had a co-presenter leave The One Show with Jason Manford, who joined the programme at the same time as her in August 2010, resigning only three months into the role for sharing sexual internet messages with female fans. Despite co-presenting on the show for a few months, Jones said she is still "really good pals" with Manford.

Write a list Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase. Or for complete ease, try Google's AI app - Gemini - which will create a list for you and help you not over pack. 2. Involve your kids Jemma said: 'My girls are getting older, they're 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say 'this is what you need' and they follow the list. 'And then I give them a rucksack each - and say to them 'you can have whatever you want in there as long as it's not liquid', and they can take that on the plane. And that's their 'home away from home' items.' 3. Try a hack or two She said: "I think they all work, but for different reasons - and you've just got to pick the right one for your trip. "Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you're trying to get a lot of items into your case, it's a space saver. 'Packing cubes are great - for example, I'm going on holiday with my three kids and we're all using the same suitcase for our clothes. "These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked. "I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we've arrived." 4. Decant beauty products Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets - which are much lighter and smaller. Or, if you'll be popping to the shops when you're abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive. 5. Get organised before you come home Jemma said: 'When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes. 'Also pack it in some form of order - so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person. "Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don't leave it." Another added: 'Respectfully, please don't tell me how to pack.'

Vogue Williams admits Spencer Matthews wasn't 'happy' after brutal criticism
Podcaster Vogue Williams has revealed that Spencer Matthews was "not happy" after she made her feelings known about one of her husband's prized possessions. After launching their self-titled Spencer and Vogue podcast, the husband-and-wife duo released multiple episodes each week, sharing insights into their busy home lives and answering questions from listeners. However, earlier this year, Spencer shocked fans as he revealed that he would be stepping away from the podcast to pursue other projects. It was later revealed that the show would continue, with Vogue's older sister Amber stepping in to take his place. Now, in her newly released autobiography Big Mouth, Vogue has reflected on her time podcasting with the former Made in Chelsea star and revealed how he was "not happy" after one particular comment she made during a recording. Vogue shared the anecdote in her new autobiography (Image: Mike Marsland, WireImagevia Getty Images) Lifting the lid on what annoyed her husband, she wrote: "He was especially not happy when I slagged the onion painting he did when he was sixteen years old." While she admitted that he had "thrown a few epic wobblers" over the years, she said their arguments were no different from those of any other couple: "Every so often he would threaten to quit, but these are the usual conflicts and dramas of a married couple." Soon after his time on their joint podcast came to an end, Spencer returned to the mic with a new podcast titled Untapped. Vogue first met Spencer in 2017 on a Channel 4 show (Image: undefined via Getty Images) Launched earlier this year, the podcast sees the former reality TV star interview sporting legends such as Mo Farah, Ulrika Jonsson and Ben Stokes, as he explores the factors behind their extraordinary achievements. Looking back on the couple's beginnings, it was eight years ago that they first crossed paths while competing on the Channel 4 show The Jump in 2017. Just a few months later, they tied the knot, surrounded by celebrity guests including Jamie Laing. The couple have three children together (Image: PA) The pair exchanged vows against the backdrop of Spencer's parents' stunning Glen Affric Estate in the Scottish Highlands. Since then, the couple have started a family together, welcoming their first child, Theodore, followed by daughter Gigi and youngest son Otto.
