The 23-year-old model, who is based in the US, has scored her biggest job yet with a billboard campaign for deodorant Salt & Stone. Sharing a snap of the billboard on a busy New York street, Patsy wrote: 'So so proud to see you @emiliamerkell in NYC @saltandstone campaign. Beautiful' Emilia is one of Patsy's four children and has been steadily making a name for herself in the fashion world alonsgide her older brother Fenton, 24. The rising stars are the kids of Patsy and her husband, former cab driver Richard Merkell, who she also shares her youngest Bertie with. Patsy is mum to actor Charley Palmer Rothwell, 33, with her ex, former boxer Alfie Rothwell. The 52-year-old is best known for playing loud-mouthed Bianca Jackson in EastEnders — a role that made her a household name in the 1990s. Her iconic 'RICKAAAAAY!' catchphrase became one of the soap's most memorable lines. She left the UK for a quieter life in Los Angeles several years ago, where she now works as a DJ and wellness advocate, while continuing to support her children's careers. Patsy recently returned to UK screens as a contestant on Celebrity Big Brother.

In her first exit interview with hosts Will and AJ Odudu, she fell silent when they asked about the trickier moments in the hosue. After recapping her highlights, Will told Patsy: "There were a few tricky moments you had to deal with in there. "People complaining about your brocolli, that was one…" Patsy went stony-faced and there was total silence as the hosts waited for her to say something. Will laughed: "You don't want to talk about the broccoli do you… "Absolutely fair enough." Again there was silence, leaving AJ to fill in the gap. She asked: "Did it really upset you when Mickey complained to your face about the food?" Patsy flatly replied: "Erm, not really that." The squirming hosts were referring to axed housemate Mickey Rourke. He made Patsy break down in tears after complaining about her cooking. 6 Patsy Palmer with her husband Richard and their kids Emilia, Fenton and Bertie Credit: Instagram 6 Emilia is finding her own way into the spotlight Credit: Getty Images - Getty

20 Things On Amazon That Make Perfect Mother's Day Gifts
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Monogram for even more brownie points. 1. A cast-iron tortilla press that will be a gift for you as much as it is for momma dukes. Tortillas are SO easy to make from scratch (and taste so much better, IMHO). If your mom doesn't see themselves making tortillas every week, they can also use this to flatten out meat for schnitzels! Promising reviews:"Nice packaging, comes with an extra pin for the hinge in case you lose one, no weird grease or smell, high-quality, smooth cast iron, works like a dream, my mom loved it. 👍👍👍" — Sidney "Very well-made, makes perfect tortillas and will be the only press that you and your children will ever need." — R Doupe 2. A pocket-size fill-in-the-blank journal so you can show your mom just how much they mean to you. Simply write out your responses to the prompts in this journal, then watch their eyes light (or tear) up as they read all the special things you have to say. Promising review:"This book is absolutely adorable! I bought this for my mom's birthday. The book itself is very small but not so small to where it's uncomfortable to write in it or read it. The pages are nice and thick and the spine of the book is flexible. The cover of the book is sturdy and overall it's made very well. There are 50 pages for you to fill out, which I thought was perfect! Such a meaningful DIY gift to give for a small price!" — Kaeli 3. A Salt & Stone deodorant for your mom who covets anything that smells like it belongs in a fancy hotel. But! Looking and smelling chic isn't all this deo can do; it's also aluminum-free, making it a great alternative to traditional deodorants! Promising review:"The deodorant works 24 hours, which I am very happy and surprised about since it is not an antiperspiration product. It is also aluminum-free. The scent is not overpowering and is subtle throughout the day. It is gentle on my skin and has not stained my clothing. Great quality. It is not sticky." — Merlinsyoyo 4. A monogrammed glass cup, because even if you're shopping for a mom who already has it all, everyone can use a personalized cup for their morning brew. Promising reviews:"I brought three glass cups as gifts for my friends and family, and everyone loved them. The initial is a great personal touch and was packaged very well." — Sharmaine Walker "The glass and print are high-quality. The size is as expected. Will consider getting it again. Very satisfied and recommended." — JT 5. A drift car air freshener that comes infused with a gorgeous amber, grove, pine, or teak scent. Your madre can finally enjoy fresh scents in their car without having to stare at clunky air fresheners dangling from their rearview mirror. Drift Goods/Instagram / Via 6. A glass vase shaped like a purse because it's only appropriate to gift your mom their two favorite things at once: flowers and handbags. If they're not into florals, they can also use this as a fish tank or a chic makeup brush holder! Promising reviews:"I love this vase. It is exactly as described, if not better! It is fantastic quality and looks so great in person. I'm so excited to see how different flowers look in it, and honestly, I can see it being used for so many fun displays!! Highly recommend, might even buy another." — kate hochwalt "I love this vase! I always have fresh flowers in my home, and this vase is absolutely adorable. I saw a similar one online that was much more expensive. This is a must-treat for yourself or a cute gift for a friend who loves pocketbooks and flowers. Great price and fantastic quality, especially for the price. Don't miss this!" — Chrissy Pasteris 7. An Osea body oil that I would bathe in if I could; it's that amazing. This body oil is chock full of Undaria seaweed to plump the skin with moisture from head to toe without ever feeling sticky. This body oil has a fast dry-down time and a light, beachy scent, making it perfect for your mom, who's into easy body care. 8. A mini jewelry organizer is perfect if your mother *loves* having everything neat and tidy, but also loves traveling, which is notorious for igniting chaos in material goods. This'll hold all their favorite heirloom pieces while being compact enough to throw into any overnight travel bag! Promising review:"This is small and folds flat, so easy to stick in my tote or carry-on. It keeps everything visible, organized, and untangled. I don't take a ton of jewelry when I travel, but a few pieces that will work with several outfits. This would accommodate several necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and a watch or two, way more than I need." — Kindle Customer 9. A pair of 14-karat gold-plated link earrings that'll up your mom's style tenfold while serving as a reminder of the indestructible bond that the two of you will cherish forever... :,). (You can use that in your letter to them this year, I don't mind.) Promising review:" I get so many compliments on these earrings! I decided to buy the silver as well and they are equally as beautiful. Looks like real silver and gold. Very light on the ear, so light I often forget I have them on and end up sleeping in them. The lock/clip is very secure and firm. These would be a perfect gift to someone. Would definitely but again if I lost them." — Memphis baby 10. An ultra-cozy weighted eye mask if all mom really wants is some peace to snooze. This will fit snugly on their face without the tension of a traditional sleep mask and will block out all light until they're ready to wake up. Plus, reviewers say that this stays put all night long — even through tossing and turning! Amazon Promising review:"This product is the BEST! I bought it initially a couple of years ago and use it every single night. It's a weighed blanket for your eyes and so much better than a traditional sleep mask. It stays put all night long even when turning from side-to-side. It completely blocks out all light allowing for a better night sleep. I have given these as gifts to countless family members as well who love them just as much. They are very soft and easy to spot clean." — Nikki 11. A personalized canvas bag so your mom can store all their precious items (and all the family's precious items, because, #momlife) while sporting a bag that was handpicked just for them, down to the initial! (Plus, who doesn't love a monogram?!) Promising review:"I use this bag for everything. From running errands, dry cleaners, groceries, to putting a snack and bottled water if I'm driving somewhere. It's stylish and I have purchased several of these as gifts for my friends." — Kris Nulf 12. A personalized storybook that you can customize with your mom's name, photo, skin tone, correct pronouns, and hairstyle (including hijabs if your mom wears one)!! Basically, it's a story that tells your mom how amazing they are — even though they already know in their hearts that they're fabulous, this book will bring tears to their eyes. Amazon Promising review:"Wooow! This is so cool! Everything about this personalized book is amazing! My kids and I got this book for their mom for Mother's Day and she was very surprised and amazed. She loves it, we love it. The perfect gift. Thank you to the creators for this awesome personalized book. Definitely 5 stars!" — Siosaia Price: $29.99 13. A weighted page holder if your mom refuses to give up paper books, even if they're sometimes hard to hold open. Nothing screams "elevated reading experience" like something that will help them say goodbye to hand cramps while reading. Promising review:"I bought this to hold cookbooks open. It works wonderfully. The pages stay in place. It is very good quality and will last for years. It easily stores in a drawer until I need it." — PGram 14. A smart oven that looks like it belongs in fancy restaurant, just sayin'. This nifty tool can air fry, rotisserie, bake, roast, *and* dehydrate, so if your mom loves complex recipes but hates cluttering their countertop with forty different cooking devices, this is just the thing for them. Promising reviews:"It took me so long to finally get an air fryer. I wish I got one sooner. This thing made cooking soooo much easier. It's a very big save on using pots and pans; it's fast and, overall, a must-have kitchen tool. Do not hesitate to buy it." — Mahan "I bought this for my mom, and she has fallen in love with it. She hardly uses her oven anymore, it fits nicely on the counter, easy to use, cleans up in a snap! Perfect for an elderly couple who doesn't have to cook in large quantities." — Mark Wilson 15. A super fancy Diptique Baies room spray because your mama's worth it. If they love daydreaming about being smack in the middle of a chic townhouse in Paris, they'll absolutely love this deep, slightly floral, and invigorating home fragrance. (Oh, and "Baies" is just French for berries, so bonus points if your mom is a Francophile who loves having French things around their home.) Amazon, 16. A hilarious vanilla coconut-scented candle so you can end the sibling rivalry over your mama once and for all. Promising review:"I bought this candle for my mom for Mother's Day. She loved it! It smells wonderful, and it fits any decoration style. It's sleek and simple. My mom thought the candle was hilarious, and my brothers kept trying to give it to her. Adorable, and if you are looking for a gift for your mom, or dad, or caregiver, or any other type of parental adult, this is a great gift." — Katelyn 17. A hummingbird wind chime to help mom drift off to sleep listening to the sweet sounds of chimes! Plus, these chimes light up to add a charming touch to their home. 19. A funny-but-true canvas tote bag for your bestie who is a new mom. It's great to also give Mother's Day gifts to mothers other than your own — they'll appreciate the new home you've given to all their baby formula, diapers, and other things they need in tow when they're out and about with their baby. Amazon 20. And a cute Yoda T-shirt, because Mother's Day is close enough to their second favorite holiday, May the 4th, right? This shirt's message is simple yet powerful: yo really are da best mom.

I'm the cheapest person I know, but this $20 aluminum-free deodorant is worth every cent
I've always been an extremely frugal person; as a senior deals writer, bargain-hunting has become part of my personality at this point. I love a good, cheap find, and skin care products are no exception — I've written about my favorite face moisturizer and body cream, neither of which top $16. That said, I have a confession to make: My favorite deodorant retails for $20. I know, I scoffed at the cost at first too. How on earth could a deodorant be worthy of a double-digit price tag? But this isn't your average B.O. buster; it's Amazon's No. 1 bestselling Salt & Stone Deodorant, an aluminum-free stick that smells, in a word, divine. It's a little luxury I've enjoyed treating myself to for the past few years — and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon. The older I get, the more conscious I am about what I put on my skin. While I realize there's a good deal of fearmongering within the beauty industry, my general ethos is the fewer ingredients a product has, the better I feel about using it. Salt & Stone's deodorants are formulated without aluminum, parabens, sulfates, phthalates and alcohol, but do contain nourishing ingredients like hyaluronic acid to promote moisture retention and spirulina to help soothe irritated skin. Not once have I felt itchy or dry after applying this deodorant (I have sensitive skin), and the non-sticky formula glides on comfortably. Many deodorants I've used in the past have left a chalky residue behind, but I've never found streaks on my clothing with Salt & Stone, as it has a pretty sheer finish. Of course, a deodorant is only as good as its ability to make us smell good; Salt & Stone's aromatic combinations are so elegant, I feel like I'm giving my pits the star treatment every time I swipe it on. (FYI, the scents are intended to be gender-neutral.) Because this is a deodorant and not an antiperspirant, it's meant to mask smells rather than prevent sweating. I find that my B.O. stays in check for hours at a time, as long as it's not a swelteringly hot day. That said, I've had to reapply every deodorant I've ever used after being in the hot sun for hours or doing an intense workout, and as far as natural options go, Salt & Stone's is by far the most effective. In case you're still on the fence about the price (understandable!), just know that I'm able to make a stick last for months — a little goes a long way. You can also opt for a 3-pack to save $6. More than 30,000 tubes of this deodorant have been sold in the past month alone, with Amazon customers praising it for its gentle yet effective formula, heavenly scent and clean application. "LOVE this stuff!" exclaimed one convert. "I have very sensitive skin and have been on a very long journey trying to find a natural deodorant that not only agrees with my skin, but actually works in this Georgia heat. It goes on very smoothly and washes off easily in the shower. And the smell is absolutely amazing. I have tried all of them, can't pick a favorite." "This smells absolutely amazing," raved another happy buyer. "Scent lasts all day! Not sticky, I did not get a rash or any irritation. No messy white residue or stains on my clothes. I can't wait to try another scent!" "I really like this deodorant," wrote a third. "For one, it doesn't require a lot to be effective, so the container lasts a couple of months. I have had no issues with sweating, and the scent is pleasant. I mostly like that it is made from natural ingredients." While most reviewers had positive things to say about this deodorant, a few did share some notes. "I've tried a lot of natural deodorants, and this one is one of the best," said a mostly pleased shopper. "It smells amazing, goes on smoothly and doesn't feel sticky. It lasts most of the day, but if you sweat a lot, you might need to reapply. It's a bit pricey, but worth it for a good, clean deodorant. Would buy again!" "My only complaint is that sometimes a lot gets wasted on the sides from swiping it on," shared a final fan. "Not the best shape design for application." That said, they added, "This deodorant is the only one that smells good AND lasts!" Have really sensitive skin? This formula's got your name on it: If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.) The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.
