Singer-songwriter and dancer Nicole Scherzinger, who got engaged to her fiance, former Scottish rugby player Thom Evans, in 2023, shared that the wedding plan is not a top priority, Singer-songwriter and dancer Nicole Scherzinger , who got engaged to her fiance, former Scottish rugby player Thom Evans, in 2023, shared that the wedding plan is not a top priority, reported People. Two years later, wedding planning isn't a top priority because, as she recently shared, when you're on Broadway, there's no room in your schedule for much else. Scherzinger has been busy starring in Sunset Blvd., her Broadway debut. It also turned into a Tony-winning turn last month, when she won the Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Musical for the role. She noted that, thankfully, Evans has been more than understanding where her Broadway career and the musical are concerned. "Oh, there's no wedding planning, honey," she shared. "When you do Broadway, it's only Broadway. You eat, sleep, don't sleep much, and breathe Broadway." She added, "Thank God I have a very understanding, wonderful, and supportive fiance." Scherzinger and Evans met in 2019 on the set of The X Factor: Celebrity. The former rugby player formed a singing trio, Try Star, with fellow U.K. rugby players Levi Davis and Ben Foden, who competed with him on the show, for which Scherzinger was a judge, as per the outlet. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah?

"People always say, 'When you know, you know,' and I can honestly say I'd never really had that moment," he told the outlet. "But within the first couple of days with Nicole, it was just awesome, and it has been awesome ever since." The couple began dating in 2019, but they did not publicly announce their romance until they attended a Golden Globe Awards afterparty red carpet together in January 2020. Earlier, Scherzinger shared, "It's just a blessing to have a normal, healthy relationship," reported People.

Louis Tomlinson goes official with Zara McDermott with rare heartfelt comment
Louis Tomlinson has appeared to confirm his relationship with Zara McDermott with a sweet comment on social media. In March the One Direction singer, 33, and the Love Island star, 28, sparked romance rumours when being spotted on a romantic getaway in Suffolk. The pair were seen together just three months after Zara's split from Sam Thompson, 32, who now seems to be dating another Love Island star – Sami Elishi, 25. In the past two months Louis and Zara had dropped several hints on social media they were together, firstly when posting similar videos from a concert in Los Angeles followed by a snap of her at brunch with his wrist tattoo in the background. Since then, they've been snapped in public holding hands and kissing. They've now seemed to made their relationship public officially with a post that's got plenty of people talking. This week she shared photos of her sitting smiling at an editing suite. 'In the edit for my new series all about Thailand. I'm so unbelievably excited about this one. I can't believe I've been making documentaries for 5 years now… every year that goes by I feel my confidence in front of the camera, in my producing (and in myself!!) growing so much,' she wrote. 'I feel really proud of this, of our amazing team for creating such a special series with so much depth to it, exploring some pretty serious topics but also capturing the fun too. I learnt SO much making this programme. 'I cannot wait @bbcthree (Thailand will be out later this year after my stalking documentary which will be out this summer).' Soon after Louis commented: 'Proud of you.' His comment has since garnered nearly 17,000 likes and over 1300 replies from fans, who said his show of support was 'so cute and supportive'. Louis' sister Daisy also commented, saying Zara was both 'clever and beautiful'. Zara, who previously worked for the Department for Education as a policy advisor, appeared on Love Island in 2018 before taking part in The X Factor: Celebrity and joining Made in Chelsea. But after leaving the E4 series, on which her ex Sam came to public attention, Zara explained how she wanted to make documentaries rather than focus on brand deals and reality TV like many other former Love Island stars had done. Her first documentary, Zara McDermott: Revenge Porn, which saw her recall the experience of having her nude photos leaked as a teenager, was released in 2021. Other projects in the years since have included Zara McDermott: Uncovering Rape Culture, Zara McDermott: Disordered Eating, The Idaho Murders: Trial by TikTok and the upcoming Ibiza: Secrets of the Party Island. In 2023 she also appeared as a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing.

This comes a few months after Zara's break up from her boyfriend of five years, Sam Thompson, who is also reportedly dipping his toes back into the dating pool. Sam and Zara began their romance in May 2019, with Sam revealing to OK! magazine that Zara made the first move. However, their relationship hit rocky waters early on when it was disclosed that Zara had cheated on Sam during The X Factor: Celebrity, leading to a temporary split. Zara was captured pleading for Sam's forgiveness in viral Made In Chelsea scenes – initially, he declined but eventually chose to overlook Zara's infidelity and the couple got back together. After their reconciliation, the pair seemed stronger than ever, with Zara moving into Sam's luxurious Chelsea apartment, reports the Mirror. They frequently created entertaining social media videos together along with TOWIE star Pete Wicks. Unfortunately, their love story came to an end in December as it was announced they had parted ways. One Direction favourite Louis, 33, and the Love Island star, 28, ignited relationship speculation at the beginning of this year after they were spotted having dinner and spending the night together at The Suffolk in Aldeburgh, following reports of Zara's growing closeness with the singer's half-siblings. The couple flew to the US together earlier this month, following a cosy dinner at a Suffolk hotel. During their trip, they posted identical photos from a Stereophonics concert, and Zara subtly hinted at their relationship by including Louis' arm in a breakfast photo. Zara and Louis have yet to publicly confirm their relationship, but they've been spotted engaging in public displays of affection, including holding hands during their American outing. Louis recently stirred up fan excitement by leaving a heartfelt comment on one of Zara's social media posts. Zara posted a photo of herself editing her new documentary series, expressing increased confidence in front of the camera and her excitement for fans to see the final product. She captioned the post: "In the edit for my new series all about Thailand I'm so unbelievably excited about this one. "I can't believe I've been making documentaries for 5 years now... every year that goes by I feel my confidence in front of the camera, in my producing (and in myself!!) growing so much.

Louis promptly responded in the comments, writing: 'Proud of you x'. His comment has already garnered over 7,000 likes and more than 700 replies. While neither Louis nor Zara have shared pictures together on their social media accounts, eagle-eyed fans have spotted their interactions through likes and comments on each other's posts.

London Marathon 2025: 'Huge challenge' after X Factor star 'fearing for life' vanishes
It's been three years since Levi Davis went missing and now his close friend is taking on a gruelling test in his honour When Levi Davis went missing in 2022, his friend Louisa's stomach dropped as she remembered reading a post on social media where he said he feared for his life. The rugby union star was just 24 when he vanished on October 29, 2022 from a trip to Barcelona in Spain. Levi, who played as a winger for Bath and appeared on The X Factor: Celebrity in 2019 as part of the group Try Star, with fellow players, Thom Evans and Ben Foden, was last seen on CCTV leaving The Old Irish Pub on La Rambla, at around 10pm. Ahead of running the London Marathon in Levi's honour and to raise money for Missing People charity, Louisa says: 'It's like an emotional rollercoaster when someone you care for goes missing - there's hope, grief, a fear for their safety. I felt like my stomach literally dropped when I heard he was missing. The pain of losing someone so close, with so many unanswered questions, is indescribable. For Levi's friends and family, the last few years have been an emotional rollercoaster of hope and fear, made even more difficult by misleading media reports. 'Before his disappearance, Levi posted a video saying he feared for his life and believed he was being followed. He had been staying with someone in Ibiza before fleeing to Barcelona. To honour our wonderful friend and to support others enduring the heartbreak of a missing loved one, I've decided to run the London Marathon in aid of Missing People, a charity that provides critical support to those affected when someone disappears. 'Unlike Levi, I'm not a natural athlete, so this marathon will be a huge personal challenge for me - but I'm motivated by the cause and incredibly grateful for the support and generosity we've received so far. It's going to be an emotional day, but we'll be running together with Levi in our hearts, and for all the people still searching for someone they love.' Whether it's the mum who had cancer, the friend who died by suicide or, like Louisa, the loved one who went missing - each and every London Marathon runner is raising money for one of the 1,700 charities supported by the London Marathon - often on behalf of a loved one or a cause close to their heart. While the aerial view of over 50,000 runners is a striking picture, it shows less than a third of all the people who go missing from the UK each single year. The heart wrenching truth is that a staggering 170,000 people go missing from the UK every year - leaving their families torn and not knowing if they are dead or alive. Among the runners limbering up to run the 26.2 miles this year, is Tom Wheeler, a 19-year-old university student from Farnham in Surrey. He's raising money for Missing People charity after his dad Matt went missing in February 2024 and he and his family later discovered he'd taken his own life. 'You think it will never happen to you but my world completely flipped upside down when I was told my dad was missing,' Tom told The Mirror. 'It's hard to describe what it feels like when someone you love goes missing, no matter how old you are - whether it's your child, parent or partner, it's gut wrenching, devastating.' Tom's goal is to raise £2,500 for Missing People but he has already surpassed that and raised more than £5k - money that could be well spent helping to reunite 10 families. But despite the fabulous backing from his supporters, he's worried a couple of serious injuries could stop him in his tracks. 'I never expected to raise that much and I'm so grateful for any donation towards this amazing cause. "It would mean the absolute world for the families the charity could help. 'I have a couple of bad injuries so it's not going to be easy but I'll be thinking of dad to try and get me through. The ups and downs of running the marathon are a bit like the highs and lows of life and we all know life isn't always easy. My dad was my inspiration, my guide, I'll definitely be thinking of him when the race gets tough - he'll be helping me through the pain barrier when it's hard to carry on.' Another man running to raise money for Missing People is James Stammers. Not a day goes by when James doesn't think of his younger brother Anthony, who went missing more than 13 years ago from Colchester in Essex. It was May 27 2012 when Anthony last saw his family and went to stay with a friend in London. When he didn't return home for his grandfather's funeral the next day, his family's concern turned into despair over the days that followed. He was very close to his grandfather and was due to give a reading and had even texted to ask his mum not to forget to press his trousers. 'It's like being in a perpetual state of limbo and despair when someone you love goes missing,' James tells The Mirror. 'In the beginning it was surreal and confusing but the longer it goes on you start to panic and to consider the worst case scenario. You start to question: are they OK, are they alive, are they living on the street?' Since Anthony went missing James has become a dad to his now one-year-old daughter and says becoming a parent himself has conjured up new feelings of grief and made him realise what his parents are going through. 'Anthony was such a great brother and he would be such a fantastic uncle - he's such a genuine, caring and compassionate person. It's hard not knowing what has happened to him - when someone goes missing with no answers it's different to someone dying - there's no finality, just despair. It never gets any easier but when I put my backpack on with his picture on before I startn the marathon it will give me a sense of purpose. "I'm raising money for families like ours because Missing People have been a literal lifeline for my parents - what they do to help families is vital and they're quite underfunded compared to the big charities. I know there'll be times during the race that I'm in pain - but that's when I'll be thinking about my brother to help get me through. Anthony, if you're reading this I just want you to know that we love you and miss you and you will always be welcomed back into our family with open arms.' In the time it takes to read this article, someone in the UK has gone missing. This is why, in 2025, the Mirror has launched Missed in partnership with Missing People. Our mission is to bring awareness to every publicly listed missing person in the UK through our live, interactive map. Too many families are left with nowhere to turn as they grapple with the agony of not knowing if a loved one is dead or alive. This must change. The Mirror is calling on the Government for better support and care for missing people and their families. The Mirror is calling for: • The publication of a new missing children and adults strategy to ensure police, health and social care play their part • Investment in prevention for those at most risk of going missing • Support to be offered to every missing child and adult on their return
