The pair were not pictured together, with Tony instead beaming for snaps alongside fellow DJ Patsy. The Sun revealed this week how supermodel Kate pulled out of Tony's matrimony after learning her nemesis Fran Cutler had been invited. The British icon was lined up as a bridesmaid, alongside Towie star Gemma Collins and actress Claire Sweeney. But insiders said Kate pulled out when she discovered PR supremo Fran — her former friend — was attending the wedding in central London on Saturday. The pair got to know each other in the 1990s when Fran would plan parties for Jude Law and Sadie Frost — who were good pals with Kate.

A source said: 'Kate snubbing Fat Tony's big day was the talk of the wedding. 'He wanted to have Kate there. "But after she found out Fran was going, she said she couldn't make it. 'Tony is said to have known for a while that Kate wouldn't be going if Fran was. "She was really missed and the guests were talking about it. 'Fran was on great form but didn't say anything about it. "It's all rather sad that they couldn't put on brave faces to celebrate Tony's big day.' Long-time pal Tony, who wed partner Stavros Agapiou, previously said of Kate: 'I loved her from the moment we met. 'I'd make her Long Island iced teas and she'd get p***ed. "I'd tuck her under a desk.' 7 The pair looked delighted to see one another Credit: Getty 7 The Masked Singer panellist went on to join Azzi Glasser and Yasmin Mills for some shots Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 7 Jaime Winstone was also in attendance, busting some moves against Patsy Credit: Getty 7 She got behind the decks with DJ Fat Tony Credit: Shutterstock Editorial

The Project star Chrissie Swan reveals she was publicly weighed at age ten as she shows off dramatic weight loss
Chrissie Swan has revealed the devastating truth about her struggles with weight throughout her childhood. The radio star, 51, spoke to Nova 96.9's Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie on Monday where the hosts discussed the introduction of randomised public weigh-ins in Turkey. The initiative involves health workers stopping people on the street to gather their health data, including weight and body mass index (BMI). People with a BMI of 25 or more are referred to state health centres for free nutritional advice and follow-up services in a bid to address the country's rising obesity rates. Chrissie said the latest legislation was "fresh hell" as she revealed her own public trauma. "This is coming from someone whose first public weighing was at ten years old at a Weight Watchers meeting," she said. "I had to get up in front of Joy and Pam, who had little badges, and say, 'Oh yeah, I've put on point four kilos'." Chrissie said she queued up to be weighed on scales in front of people weekly where a staff member would record her weight. The 51-year-old said the public experience came with pressure to lose weight while navigating the difficult teenage years. It comes after Chrissie showed off her remarkable weight loss transformation by sharing throwback photos of herself on Instagram last week. The Nova star could be seen with a much fuller face in 2005, two years after she placed runner-up on Network 10's reality TV series Big Brother. "I WAS A BABY!" she captioned the snaps shared with her 296,000 followers. "A cute little juicy baby with layers and foils. Happy to see the love of the giant hoop earrings started early." Chrissie also shared more photos with her "bestie" Rebecca Thompson and fellow Big Brother cast members, reflecting on how far she's come. The Masked Singer judge has radically transformed over the past few years, reportedly losing 90 kilograms. The star credits her slimmed-down physique to a new diet, daily walks, and sobriety. She spoke to the Herald Sun ahead of her milestone 50th birthday in 2023 and said she had "never been happier or more centred." "It is actually great, and I don't think you can feel that way until you have done the years. I wouldn't be 20 for quids."

Cash-strapped ITV selling ad space on Coronation Street for staggering 7-figure sum amid brutal cuts
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FANCY setting up your own business on Coronation Street? Well now is your chance — although you will need a cool £1million in the bank. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 ITV wants £1million for the privilege of setting up shop in Weatherfield's arches Credit: ITV That's how much ITV wants for the privilege of setting up shop in Weatherfield's arches alongside other firms including Argos and Sainsbury's. The unit is in a prime location, previously occupied by Hays Travel, and should provide anyone with deep enough pockets the chance to showcase their brand. The only problem is that ITV has been advertising the storefront on its website for some time — with it being available as far back as March. A TV insider said: 'Perhaps the fact that Coronation Street's viewing figures weren't quite what they were, would suggest that this isn't exactly a bargain price. 'A seven-figure sum is eye-watering considering the shop itself may only end up in a limited number of scenes and shots, and the fact that it doesn't seem to have been snapped up suggests there aren't many takers.' The advert states: 'Your brand could be the next 'grand store opening' on the nation's most famous street, Coronation Street. This is a unique Product Placement opportunity, with proven success. 'Seamlessly integrating your brand and elevating your SOV, trust and fame—without direct retail competition.' An ITV Spokesperson: 'Coronation Street has enjoyed a successful partnership with Hays Travel and we are excited to welcome a new brand to the storefront in the UK's biggest product placement partnership soon.' Big characters Although it was still ITV's most watched show on Friday, the episode of Corrie drew in just under 3.3million viewers, which wasn't much more than its channel rival, Emmerdale. Over the past year, Coronation Street has said goodbye to a string of big characters, including Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) which, it is claimed, is down to bosses having to cut costs as advertising rates are further squeezed. Michael McStay makes Coronation Street debut as Alan Hoyle in 2010 The news also comes at the end of a week when ITV confirmed dramatic changes to its daytime TV schedule, with Loose Women being cut to 30 weeks a year. Wonder if one of them fancies a career change into retail? HOSTING IS NO JOKE FOR JOEL AND PALS MORE comedians than ever before have pivoted from cracking jokes in clubs to landing proper presenting gigs on TV - and Joel Dommett knows why. The Masked Singer host, who still tours as a comic, believes his funny friends have been forced to diversify as these days there are far fewer panel shows - which once cast a gaggle of gag-makers. 4 Joel Dommett believes his funny friends have been forced to diversify as these days there are far fewer panel shows Credit: ITV It means Joel is on the NTA longlist for TV Presenter alongside a load of comedians, like Romesh Ranganathan, Adam Hills and Tom Allen. Joel said: 'It's been an interesting time for comedy on telly because panel shows have sort of fallen by the wayside. 'So comedians who used to populate these panel shows, they have gone on to such varying stuff. 'We all started out like me, Rob Beckett, Romesh, Joe Lycett, we would never have dreamt of being on all these different TV channels, doing all these different kinds of shows.' TV's all the better for it, I reckon. JEREMY VINE is celebrating because the BBC has commissioned a TV series based on his new murder mystery book. The Channel 5 and Radio Two presenter has penned a whodunnit called Murder On Line One. 4 Jeremy Vine is celebrating because the BBC has commissioned a TV series based on his new murder mystery book Credit: PA The gripping story - set in Sidmouth in Devon - centres around a late-night talk show host called Edward who discovers that someone is killing off his listeners. Vine has revealed that his novel - which has made the Sunday Times best seller list - will be turned into a telly drama. The ex-Strictly star said: 'Just today I have had a meeting about doing a TV thing on the book and I just always guard myself against disappointment but this is a production company and they are going to set it in Sidmouth and they are going to film it and the BBC has commissioned it.' BRITAIN'S Got Talent has named its ten finalists as Vinnie McKee, The Blackouts, Stacey Leadbeatter, Olly Pearson, Ping Pong Pang, Jasmine Rice, Joseph Charm, Hear Our Voice, Harry Moulding and Binita Chetry. It's on Saturday at 7pm. TOM JONES will tell his own incredible life story on the BBC's In My Own Words factual series. Confirming my TV Biz story, BBC Arts has announced the Welsh crooner will share intimate, first person testimony as well as archive footage for his special film. 4 Tom Jones will tell his own incredible life story on the BBC's In My Own Words factual series Credit: BBC Tom said: 'Taking the time to look back at some of the extraordinary things that have happened in my life for In My Own Words has been really enjoyable and thought-provoking. 'Some of the archive I'd not seen before and watching snippets of those past times, places, styles and struggles brought home how lucky I am. 'Being able to spend the day in the first house I ever owned brought back so many memories… I hope everyone enjoys watching it as much as I did making it!' Elsewhere the series will feature Frederick Forsyth, Val McDermid, Yinka Shonibare and Cornelia Parker and will air this autumn. I'M A Celeb star GK Barry and comic Jamali Maddix will be team leaders on Jimmy Carr's new Comedy Central series, Am I The A**hole. The eight-parter will see members of the public ask if they have been unreasonable in a scenario and will air later this year.
