I was wrong about Tammy. I said you were a fool - but you've played us all... if Matt knew the REAL story about your footy fling, he'd lock himself up in a monastery forever: AMANDA GOFF
I'll admit it: I got it wrong about Tammy Hembrow. When she sprinted down the aisle with Love Island's Matt Zukowski last year, after just four months of dating, I thought she'd well and truly lost the plot.

NFL star Travis Kelce wants to ‘do good' with fame from dating Taylor Swift
The 35-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end also said he did not like negative comments that had been made about him since his relationship with Swift, who announced her 12th studio album The Life Of A Showgirl on Tuesday, began. Speaking about increased media scrutiny in an interview with British GQ, Kelce said: 'You can't block that (attention) out. If someone says something that they don't like about you, you have to be able to understand how you are portraying yourself for them to say that. 'I don't want anyone to say anything negative about me. Some people don't give a f***. I'm someone who does care. 'I do want people to look at me like I'm doing good in the world, I'm influencing and using my platform for the better, being a role model, being somebody that has done it the right way.' But Kelce said he was not offended by being dubbed a 'meathead jock', and added he finds it funny and that 'acting like you're the smartest one in the room just isn't the way to go'. He said that as well as being the 35-year-old Shake It Off singer's boyfriend, he was also a 'fan' of her music, and enjoyed seeing her come to his matches. The American footballer went on to speak about Swift's similarities to his mother Donna, adding: 'Their kindness, their genuineness, their ability to say hello to everyone in the room. 'Their ability to show love and support no matter what. And on top of that, their work ethic. I saw my mother reach goals that she had set for herself, go from being a teller to working all the way up in the KeyBank building. 'I've seen Taylor do the exact same thing of setting goals for herself and exceeding the expectations and really captivating the world in that regard.' During his NFL career, Kelce has won three Super Bowls, and hosts the New Heights podcast alongside his brother Jason, who is a retired NFL player.

Ed Kelce has spoken out about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift 's impending podcast release in his first interview since the death of his long-term girlfriend Maureen Maguire. It has been a tough few weeks for the patriarch of the Kelce family, but he was on fine form for a surprise appearance on Australian television on Wednesday, speaking about Taylor's new album, and his son Travis' GQ cover shoot. When asked if he knew pop superstar Swift was dropping her 12th album - The Life of a Showgirl - Ed told Today: 'I knew nothing about this announcement... I knew at some point the boys wanted to get her on the podcast, but I didn't know when it was coming up.' When asked whether he had heard any of the top-secret new music from Taylor's impending album, he insisted: 'No I haven't, not at all', before adding: 'I know Taylor's been working pretty hard since she stopped the tour. 'She's taken some breaks to watch some football games, but she's been out in LA working on this album. My guess is that, although I haven't heard anything, it's going to be like everything else she does, it's going to be beautiful.' More to follow.
