Last Saturday, Hong Kong actress Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼) drew a massive crowd to Pavilion Kuala Lumpur for the opening of a new restaurant. During an interview with local press, the star spoke about her latest project, returning to Malaysia and more. The actress recently attended the opening of the first On Lee Noodle Shop outlet in Malaysia at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. As a friend of the brand, Charmaine graced the event to officiate the opening and to meet local fans. Of course, the 'The Queen of News' star is no stranger to Malaysia, having filmed her drama 'The Heir to the Throne' in many parts of the Klang Valley. As such, many were curious to know if Charmaine is open to filming in KL again. Charmaine responded gleefully, saying she'll definitely return to Malaysia to film again if there's an invitation in the future. The actress also recalled her experience filming in Malaysia, saying, 'It's very comfortable here, with delicious food and beautiful scenery. I also had a lot of fun getting along with the actors.' The 50-year-old also said that Malaysia feels like home to her, saying, 'I feel like here is a second Hong Kong.' The star also spoke about her time in Malaysia so far, saying that she's been eating non-stop since arriving last Thursday. Among the things she has indulged in so far were durian, satay and chicken rice. The actress, who recently concluded filming for the second season of 'The Queen of News', quipped, 'Finally, I don't have to lose weight so I can eat as much as I want.' The public figure also praised On Lee's fishball noodles, urging locals to try her childhood dish. Besides finishing filming for 'The Queen Of News 2', Charmaine also recently finished filming for another drama titled 'Themis'. However, the actress revealed that she's not working on any more projects, saying she wants to take a break. Charmaine said, 'I want to calm myself down and see if there are any suitable roles in the future, so I won't consider new scripts for the time being.' Charmaine also revealed that her mother is accompanying her on this trip, so the two will take time to enjoy their time together in Malaysia. Whatever their plans are, we hope they make some fun memories while they're in town. Check out some videos of Charmaine at Pavilion KL: Sources: China Press (1)(2)

Virgin River season 7 leaks confirm huge first for Netflix series as fans ‘uncover' Mel twist
A recent set photo seemingly confirms a game-changing new storyline for Virgin River's Mel Monroe Warning - this article contains major potential spoilers for Virgin River season 7. A shocking twist might be in store for fans of Virgin River in its seventh season, as a recently surfaced set photo seems to confirm a major new development in the storyline. Following the conclusion of filming in Vancouver for the upcoming season of the hit Netflix series, production has reportedly shifted to Mexico this week - marking the show's first time filming outside of Canada. According to What's On Netflix, the change in filming location has led to speculation that the show might be capturing Mel Monroe (played by Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack Sheridan's (Martin Henderson) honeymoon on camera. A recent sighting of Breckenridge in Mexico appears to support these claims, sparking a flurry of excitement and speculation, reports the Mirror US. In the photo, the actress is seen sporting a red top and a floral wrap skirt, which some viewers suspect might be concealing a significant plot twist. "They're filming in Mexico right now," stated the Redditor who shared the image. "Does that look like a baby-bump? People have been saying so on Instagram." If Mel does turn out to be pregnant by the end of season seven, it could lead to multiple babies for Mel and Jack to care for in upcoming episodes. Not only did Charmaine (Lauren Hammersley) vanish shortly after the birth of her twins, but Mel received a stunning offer from her patient Marley (Rachel Drance) in the season finale. After the couple initially lined up to adopt Marley's baby backed out, she's now certain that Mel is the only viable candidate to assume the role of parent. "So she's going to have the adoption baby, Charmaine's twins and her own (maybe) all at once," one fan responded. However, another speculated: "She's definitely pregnant! They'll adopt the one baby but not Charmaine's!"

The people who are helping those in need at foodbanks in Wales and what they're hearing from them
The people who are helping those in need at foodbanks in Wales and what they're hearing from them Charmaine Walsh is a foodbank support manager in RCT and has shared some of the situations that people who use local foodbanks find themselves in Some foodbanks have seen persistently high levels of food bank need in recent years (Image: Reach Commissioned ) 'I'm seeing doctors, nurses, and even lawyers having to use a food bank' a foodbank support manager in Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT) has said. Following the recent release of statistics about food bank use over the last year in RCT, the Local Democracy Reporting Service heard from Charmaine Walsh about some of the stories she is hearing from people. People who are having to use them with over 16,634 emergency food parcels having been provided to people facing hardship across RCT between April 2024 and March 2025 and 5,793 of these being provided for children. The RCT Foodbanks have seen a 7.7% slight decrease in the number of emergency food parcels distributed compared to last year but despite this slight dip, RCT has seen persistently high levels of food bank need in recent years, with a sharp 30.1% rise compared with 2019/20. Charmaine said: 'While we saw referrals decrease slightly, the need for food banks across the UK has not wavered. As a food bank support manager, every day I speak to people who tell me they are struggling to put food on the table and are unable to afford the essentials. 'People tell me how they used to be able to scrape by, but now they have nothing left at the end of the month. They are having to use the foodbank because money just doesn't last the way it used to, due to the high cost of living, and because low incomes from work and social security payments are not covering the costs of the essentials. 'At the food bank, I've been told many times how people have had to wait up to 12 weeks for their Universal Credit (UC) or Personal Independence Payments (PIP) to come through. Article continues below 'During that period, they often have no money left and no one to lean on, so they can receive support from the food bank for as long as it takes for them to get back on their feet. 'Recently, someone coming to the food bank told me they had been using PayPal Pay to cover their weekly shop. Essentially, they were spreading the cost of their food shop over three months, and they are not alone. 'Parents dread half-term because it means a week's worth of extra meals to find for their children. 'During this time, parents will often ask me if I know of any free things to do over half term, as they simply don't have the money to treat the children to a day out. 'I'm seeing more and more of what we are calling in-work poverty, where both parents in a household are working but they simply don't have enough coming in to cover the bills. 'I'm seeing doctors, nurses, and even lawyers having to use a food bank. No-one wants to go to a food bank. But people are having to swallow their pride and go, because they have no other option. 'We refuse to stand by while so many of us can't afford to eat, keep warm and pay the bills. It doesn't have to be this way. Everyone should have enough money to afford the essentials like food, bills and toiletries. 'The UK Government's plans to slash support for disabled people only risk pushing more people to the doors of food banks. 'That's why Taff Ely, together with Trussell, is calling on the UK Government to rethink its planned cuts to disability benefits and do what is right." To get all the latest news on politics, health, education and other Welsh issues, sign up to our Wales Matters newsletter here. She also shared some stories from local people who have used the foodbank. One person said: 'I was struggling for food and was living in temporary accommodation. I came to the foodbank after receiving a voucher from my support worker. I felt ashamed to have to use a foodbank but was grateful that services like this existed. 'I was also awaiting the results of my PIP claim, so I had no money until that decision was made. I was supported through this, making sure I had enough food until my PIP decision was made. I was also being supported by my support worker to get onto Homefinder to find a place of my own.' After a recent call with them, Charmaine said she was delighted to hear they now have their own accommodation and to find out that PIP had been awarded. Charmaine said that they were extremely thankful and emotional on the phone and were grateful for all the support they were able to offer them. Another person said: 'I have a long-term health issue that isn't going to get any better, my children's school referred me for a foodbank, I was embarrassed, ashamed and anxious to have to use one, but would do anything to feed my kids. 'My eldest daughter is my carer and helps out with her siblings who also have health issues. It was Christmas time when I came to the foodbank, I had £3 in the bank and not a clue on how I was going to manage. 'I spoke to Charmaine who reassured me that it was nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about, and that we all fall on hard times. I was amazed by the generosity of everyone at the food bank and the amount of food I was given. 'She explained that the local church was doing Christmas dinner free of charge, but I knew I'd never make it with my health issues and the children, so she suggested they find a way to deliver it to me. 'In that moment, I just broke down. I know my situation isn't going to get better any time soon, but in that short space of time, I was shown so much kindness and generosity from strangers that I had a glimmer of hope again.' A UK Government spokesperson recently said the government is determined to change people's lives for the better, help them out of poverty and tackle the unacceptable rise in food bank dependence in recent years. They said the government is reforming the broken welfare system it inherited so it can get people into good, secure jobs, while always protecting those who need it most. Article continues below They said that as part of the plan for change, the UK Government is extending the household support fund, launching 750 breakfast clubs across the country and making changes to universal credit to give a £420 boost to over one million households.
