Cherry Healey's shock feud with her best friend revealed: BBC presenter's joint project turned sour after the TV star 'backed out over other commitments'
BBC presenter Cherry Healey has said her belief in the power of 'manifestation' has enabled her to attract her dream life, including her job and 'the specific man' she wanted. Yet the TV star, 44, who competed in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, probably wasn't intending on manifesting a bitter fall-out with her best friend over a joint book deal. I hear that Healey's decision to pull out of a lucrative project has left her co-author, Alexis Lee, fuming and struggling financially. The pair have previously run workshops together called Manifest That Sh** and were approached by a publisher to write a book about it. Manifestation refers to the process of bringing desires or goals into reality through focused thoughts, beliefs, and actions. The topics that were due to feature in the book included journaling, intention setting, alignment and finding stillness. Sadly, according to Lee, the work will never see the light of day. 'There was a lot of excitement about the book and a bidding war among the publishers and a brilliant advance and we were incredibly happy,' says the London-born author. 'Since the book deal in 2022, and after writing at least 70/80 per cent of the book, my co-author Cherry Healey pulled out. It coincided with her TV work increasing at the time, so I can only assume this was the real reason.' She alleges that Cherry, who is Paddy McGuinness's co-presenter on Inside the Factory, made damaging comments about her personality including that she was 'difficult' and 'intimidating' to work with. 'When she told me she wanted out, the book was almost finished,' she claims online. 'I explained I couldn't afford to pull out as I was banking on the income, and I wouldn't be able to pay back the advance as well as all the work we'd both put into the project. 'Initially, she said she'd pay the whole advance back herself since it was her decision, but she later retracted this. It's taken me a long time to recover emotionally, and I've still not recovered financially.' The divorced mother-of-two who runs the Style Me Sunday blog, says the loss of their friendship has 'rocked her world'. She says: 'It's the betrayal and lack of care from someone who I viewed as one of my closest friends, that hurts most. Showing Alexis support in the comment section, and referring to her fallout with Billie Shepherd, Ferne McCann wrote: 'Hope you're ok. I hear you friendship breakups are totally underestimated. So tough. Sending love' Ashley James added: 'Hope you're ok lovely, friendship breakups are so tough. I hope one day you'll get to write the book you wanted to' 'I wanted to seek legal justice, but I just didn't have the funds to do so.'A spokesman for Cherry, who attended Cheltenham Ladies' College before completing a drama degree at the Central School of Speech and Drama, could not be reached for comment. Showing Alexis support in the comment section, and referring to her fallout with Billie Shepherd, Ferne McCann wrote: 'Hope you're ok. I hear you friendship breakups are totally underestimated. So tough. Sending love' Ashley James added: 'Hope you're ok lovely, friendship breakups are so tough. I hope one day you'll get to write the book you wanted to' It comes after Paddy squashed the rumours that he and and Cherry had struck up a romance together. The comedian, 51, sent his Instagram followers into a frenzy after he shared an album of snaps with Cherry on the BBC show and dubbed her a 'diamond'. Among the photos, Paddy, whose divorce with wife Christine was finalised in October last year, shared an insight of the two them enjoying a meal out and visiting a book shop. While in the caption he gushed: 'The whole crew on Inside The Factory have been a joy to work with. A small but perfectly formed team. 'Also I'd never met @cherryhealey before but we hit it off straight away. Absolutely love working with her, she's an absolute diamond!' This sparked speculation from fans that the co-stars were dating, with many commenting that the pair 'looked very comfortable together'. Followers flocked to the comments to ask if they were an item, writing: 'Is this a soft launch of the new Mrs?'; 'Is this your new love? If so all the very best (you look very comfortable together)'; 'I suspect your soulmate.' But despite excitement from their fans, Paddy broke his silence to deny the rumours, replying: 'Not at all. She's just a great person.' Paddy made his Inside The Factory debut alongside Cherry last month during the Christmas special, after Gregg Wallace stepped down from the show last year due to the allegations in regard to female factory workers at Nestle, where he was filming at the time. Previously, Paddy gushed about working with co-host Cherry in an interview with The Sun. Admitted he had been nervous at the start, he said: 'That's always the tricky bit, you hope you get on. 'But I'm telling you now, me and Cherry do so much laughing. As soon as I met her, we had the biggest talk and we just got on like that. 'This is testament to her - when I did my Children in Need challenge, she turned up in Kendal to surprise me - she even brought me up a lasagne she'd made!'

Model Danielle Lloyd reveals skin cancer diagnosis
Model Danielle Lloyd has revealed she has been diagnosed with a form of skin cancer. In a video post to her Instagram Story on Friday, the 41-year-old TV personality said she was 'really shocked' to receive the news and would need to have an operation to determine if it has spread. The mother-of-five used the opportunity to encourage others to see a doctor if they have noticed changes to their skin or body which could be a sign of cancer. In the emotional video, she said: 'I don't really know how to say this and I didn't know whether to come on and say this but I just feel like I have to raise awareness about this happening to other people. 'Today I have been diagnosed with a form of skin cancer. 'And I just want to raise awareness for anyone who might think they've got something funny on their body, they see a mole that's growing that's not normal – please, please, please go to your doctor because honestly, you just never know.' Lloyd said the Macmillan nurses at the hospital has 'really supported' her after she received the health news which had 'really shocked' her. She added: 'Just honestly, not what I expected today. And I suppose not what anyone expects. 'But please guys look after your skin. Stay off sunbeds, wear factor 50. Just look after yourself because honestly you never know what's going to happen.' The appearance of a lump or discoloured patch on the skin that continues to persist after a few weeks can be a sign of a form of skin cancer according to the NHS website. A new mole or a change in an existing mole may also be signs of skin cancer. The glamour model has been open about her health issues in the past including revealing she had vaginal rejuvenation treatment after her pregnancies left her struggling with incontinence. She also previously discussed how she felt 'forced' to have cosmetic work done to her face after being trolled online about her looks. During an appearance on ITV's Lorraine in 2018, Lloyd read out negative messages sent to her online, one of which described her as 'wrecked and trashy' and that she 'looks like a bloke'. Lloyd rose to prominence as a beauty queen who was crowned Miss England 2004 and later Miss Great Britain 2006. In 2007, Lloyd featured on the fifth series of the reality show Celebrity Big Brother. She made it to the final three of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in 2023 alongside singer Gareth Gates and former health secretary Matt Hancock, but missed out on completing the course at the final stage.
