ITV This Morning star admits 'I'm there' as they eye up main hosting role
Since This Morning first began back in 1988 viewers have seen a string of well-known faces front the ITV show. This Morning's Cat Deeley took over the reins of the ITV programme alongside Ben Shephard in 2024, stepping into the shoes previously filled by Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield. Since their arrival, audiences have witnessed a roster of guest hosts including Rochelle Humes, Emma Willis, Rylan Clark and Paddy McGuinness filling in when needed. But it appears one ITV personality has set their sights firmly on the coveted presenting position - and they're certainly familiar with the programme. Former Made in Chelsea star turned broadcaster Ashley James has disclosed her ambitions to secure the hosting role. In conversation with The Sun, she revealed: "I've always said that I'm always there when the time comes. I would always love to host This Morning. "I kind of follow where my interests are, and it's got me to where I am today, and I'm always going to work harder than anyone else." The 38-year-old acknowledged her fortune, looking back on her entertainment career beginnings in 2012 when she had no industry connections whatsoever, reports Wales Online. Ashley disclosed that upon leaving her previous employment, appearing on This Morning became her primary objective. Her aspirations appear to have materialised, as ITV audiences regularly spot her as a guest panellist, frequently offering her perspective on current affairs alongside Nick Ferrari. She continued: "I wanted to be on This Morning because it's a show that I grew up idolising. It was the goal. So I love it and it's such an amazing team. I love everybody that's on there, both in front of the camera and and behind the scenes." Although Ashley hasn't taken up the mantle of presenter just yet, it was recently revealed that Love Island alum and Loose Women panellist Olivia Attwood will be taking the reins of the show this summer. During a chat about her upcoming gig with Ben and Cat, she expressed her enthusiasm. She said: "I'm going to be doing a couple of shows in the summer, I'm very excited to be joining you guys. "It's a huge honour, I've obviously grown up watching this show and being part of the Daytime team with the Loose Women has been the best experience and this just feels like a very natural progression of that." Ben and Cat have thrown their support behind Olivia, hinting that she'll do a 'brilliant' job in her new role. This Morning is available to watch on ITVX.

Freddy Brazier seen in public for first time since rehab admission
Jeff Brazier's son Freddy revealed recently that he has been addicted to 'smoking' from the age of 12 and will be seeking treatment to 'get clean' and is hoping to mend his family relationships Freddy Brazier has been spotted in public for the first time since revealing that he would be going to rehab. Jeff's youngest son with late Jade Goody, 20, appeared to be in a positive mood as he appeared at the VIP launch of Jurassic World: The Experience at Neon, Battersea Power Station, on Saturday. It comes after Freddy revealed on Friday that he has been addicted to "smoking" from the age of 12 and will be seeking treatment to 'get clean.' Regardless of his addiction struggle and family issues, Freddy seemed to be very upbeat as he arrived in a chequered £2,000 Louis Vuitton monogram denim jacket and khaki linen drawstring trousers. Posing in front of a realistic raptor statue as he held a can of Sprite, Freddy was among a variety of other famous faces including Made in Chelsea's Louise Thompson, Fearne Cotton and ex-PM Boris Johnson. Countdown star Rachel Riley was also spotted with her Strictly husband Pasha Kovalev as they dug inside a fossil pit. The night out follows a difficult time for Freddy as his relationship with dad Jeff is said to have strained to the point he left the family home and moved in with his maternal grandmother Jackiey Budden. Last week, Freddy wrote on his Instagram page that he's decided to take action in a bid to feel happy again and mend his relationships. He said: "I've decided that I will be cutting down and I want to go to Rehab In Marbs as I feel if I'm in England I won't take getting clean seriously. "I've been smoking from the age of 12 and it's time to stop. It was a bad coping mechanism that turned into an addiction, something I relied on and something that made me feel sane and some what OK "I've found a boxing club and a rehabilitation centre. Ive found someone I want to get to know and I'm happy. I got a good bunch of friends and I [want to] get out and enjoy myself. "I want to be clean so I can live happily and have healthy relationships with people and be there for all of my family rather then feeling like I'm in the middle and have to choose a side." He continued: "I haven't been able to feel loved properly as I have never loved myself and it starts now. I want to play football and take up boxing I want to be happy and be in a healthy relationship and have a healthy relationship with my Nana and my father "Every day is a new story about me and my Nana and father. It's getting boring now. Mind your business and have a good rest of the week x," he finished. Concern has grown for Freddy after it emerged he had left his dad's family home to spend more time with his maternal grandmother Jackiey. Freddy and Jeff had been known for their sweet bond, which was shown to viewers on BBC series Race Across the World last year. But it seems relations between the two have soured with Freddy getting closer to his late mum Jade's mother. The move is said to have devastated dad Jeff, who was reported to be taking legal action to stop the two hanging out. Defying his dad's orders, Freddy has been posting pictures with his gran, but worried fans with one post this week as he listed 'all the things he hates' about himself. Freddy wrote that he hates his "relationship with weed", "step parents" and said "I don't know how to love because I've never felt loved" and said he had "family issues". "Ah man this is gonna be sad to watch," one TikTok user wrote underneath Freddie's post. "Go home son, this is not what mum wanted for you sweetheart," another suggested as a third wrote: "Sending you love Fred! Watched you in Race Across the W orld & you're such a decent lad with so much potential." It looks like Freddy has a strained relationship with his big brother too, skipping Bobby's 22nd birthday festivities on Monday. According to The Sun, the party felt an air of "sadness" after Freddy's absence, where Bobby is said to have spent time with Jeff and stepmum Kate instead. Freddy was just four years old when his mother Jade died of cervical cancer in 2009. In the wake of Jade's death, Jeff threw himself into raising Freddy and Bobby and doing all he could to give his boys a stable childhood after suffering such a trauma.

Sophie Habboo & Jamie Laing's sauciest sex confessions – from mismatched libidos to ‘electrifying romps'
FROM electrifying romps to unexpected coregasms and even admitting they might need to enrol in "sex school," Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo have never exactly been shy when it comes to spilling the tea on their sex life. The Made in Chelsea duo have built their brand on oversharing and honesty, and now their love story is taking a whole new turn. 16 Made in Chelsea star Sophie Habboo posed in floral lingerie 16 Sophie Habboo at the EE BAFTA Film Awards 2025 Nominees' Party Credit: Getty 16 Jamie Laing and Sophie have recently announced that they are expecting a baby Credit: Instagram The couple just announced they're expecting their first baby. Sophie, 30, shared a heart-warming video from a hospital scan, confirming the news and giving fans a glimpse into their next big chapter. But don't think they've gone completely PG... In true Jamie, 36, and Sophie fashion, their most eyebrow-raising confessions include everything from mid-workout orgasms to sexcapades that probably should have stayed behind closed doors. And yes, apparently there was a moment where they genuinely wondered if they needed formal sex education - because things got that chaotic. Who knew growing a family could be so… steamy? Electrifying Romps Speaking about their recent shoot with The Times, Sophie revealed that she was left a little red-faced after Jamie decided to add a little more information into one of the journalist's questions. Speaking on their podcast Newlyweds, Sophie explained that the journalist asked a simple question like "how long have you been going out for.' Sophie Habboo & Jamie Laing make saucy confessions about their 'electrifying' romps & being 'sex icons' She said that Jamie 'decided to tell her the first time we had sex and it was electrifying, and looked at me like ahah.' Sophie continues: 'And I'm like 'are you f**king OK mate? Like you had an electric shock.' First time a charm Back in 2022 on ITV2's Shopping with Keith Lemon show, Jaimie decided to do a tell-all about their first time having sex. He explained that the pair were 'quite drunk and we both orgasmed!' Also gushing that he has 'never loved anything more in my entire life' while also describing it as 'electric.' Chatting to Keith about getting engaged, Jamie said: 'With Sophie, I've never loved anything more in my entire life, she is just the greatest. 'When we first had sex, we were quite drunk and we both orgasmed.' Keith replied jokingly, saying: 'Well you did.' To which Jamie answered: 'Cause I'm a legend!' He then went on to give a few more details, adding: 'When I orgasmed I was a bit drunk and I was on top of her and I said to her 'Did you feel that?' It was so electric!' 16 Jamie revealed how they "orgasm" at the same time Credit: Chilli Media 16 Sophie Habboo is pregnant with their first child Credit: Instagram 16 The pair have been very open about their sex life with fans Credit: Instagram Sex Icons Speaking on their podcast, Sophie explained that women have developed a soft spot for Jamie after he completed his Ultra Marathon this year, leading it onto whether they think of themselves as 'sex icons.' Jaimie asked Sophie if she thinks he is good looking, to which she replied: 'Yes, I am married to you you weirdo.' Jamie added: 'Do you think I'm sexy?' Sophie replied: 'I did when we were dating and I do now. But you show your bum crack to me. That isn't sexy.' But Jamie replied: 'I've seen your a***hole, I've seen you poop and I still find you sexy. I find you the sexiest thing on this earth.' Coregasms It's a spontaneous orgasm experienced during an intense workout, and Sophie claims to have experienced one while working out in the gym. Speaking on her previous weekly Wednesdays podcasts, which she hosted with former co-star Melissa Tattam, the friends discussed unusual situations in which they've climaxed. "I definitely remember like doing an ab workout in the gym in Newcastle and being like 'what the f**k just happened?'," Sophie said. "It's very common isn't it," she continued. There was this big pink vibrator. I don't know why it was even bought, but it was bought Jamie Lang "It was like a different type of orgasm, but it was something going on," the reality star went on. According to Sophie, you can achieve the sensation by going the extra mile with core Exercises. And how do you know if you've had one? According to experts at Verywell Fit, it feels similar to an orgasm you get while engaging in sexual activities, with some key differences. For women, a coregasm may feel like a deep vaginal orgasm, which could be extra pleasurable for women who can't achieve orgasm during vaginal penetration. Heading to 'sex school' In a previous episode of the couples Newlyweds podcast, Jaimie underwent a saucy lie detector test, which left Sophie a bit lost for words. In one of the questions to Jamie, who was hooked up to a polygraph, Sophie asked: 'Do you think our sex could improve?' Jamie laughs and Sophie says: 'Are you joking? Your side maybe.' And he added: 'I think it can, yes,' to which the lie detector examiner confirms: 'Truthful.' Jamie then whispered 'sorry' to his wife, who then proceeded to tell him that he needs to go to a 'sex school'. Sexual fantasies 16 Made In Chelsea stars Sophie and Jamie first got married at Chelsea Registry Office on April 14, 2023 in London Credit: Getty 16 Sophie married Jamie Lang in 2023 Credit: INSTAGRAM 16 The couple have been regularly keeping fans up to date on their NewlyWeds podcat Credit: Getty Moving on to the next question, Sophie asks: 'Are there any sexual fantasies you have that you haven't told me?' Starting to chuckle to himself, Jamie says: 'No... I just can't.' To which Sophie replies: 'Oh my god,' and the examiner goes on to confirm that her husband's answer is in fact a lie. This lead Sophie onto probe him by saying: 'Oh my god, you're f***ing rank, like what? 'Like what? Sexual fantasies, what's that, someone's dressing up?' Jamie replies: 'Sophie, just ask the question, go on,' to which she goes on to ask if he would like to dress up as a 'schoolgirl'. 'No,' Jamie says. This then got a thumbs down from the polygraph examiner, to which Sophie goes onto slam her husband saying: 'What the f*** you absolute pervert.' Bog Standard Sex Speaking very candidly about their marriage, Jamie explained that he 'can't be bothered' to perform as much now when it comes to getting frisky in the sheets. In a hilariously candid interview with The Sun, he confessed: 'Sophie did say I was bog standard at sex and that is probably a fair description. You get worse as you get married. You become lazy. 'I used to start doing joined-up handwriting then I thought, 'I can't be bothered with that as it's quicker for me to not do it joined up', I'm a bit like that in the bedroom. "I don't give up half way but I do remember that once I rolled on top of Sophie and she said, 'Oh, get on with it'.' Finding the vibration 16 Sophie and Jamie once revealed the their cleaner found their sex toy 16 They have both previously spoken about being 'sex icons' Credit: Instagram 16 Jamie explained that they had ordered a sex toy online Credit: PA In 2022, the former Made in Chelsea favourites let listeners of their podcast into an awkward encounter they had with their cleaner. They explained that they had misplaced one of their 'massive' sex toys, only for their cleaner to find it. Talking about getting things a bit 'frisky', Jamie explained that they had ordered a toy online, but despite 'never using it' the 'cleaner found it!' But Sophie quickly interrupted asking: 'What toy?" Jamie replied: 'It was a massive thing - a vibrator!" 16 The pair also revealed who has a higher libido in the relationship Credit: Splash Attempting to control his laughter, he added: "The cleaner found it! It had been left on the side. "It wasn't!" Sophie stops him. "I'd said, 'Where is it?' because my mum came to stay. I said, 'Did you move that thing?'". "I did move it, but the cleaner found it!" Jamie teases again. "What do you mean she found it?" Sophie replies. "She came into your room and said, 'Here's your toy?' It would be something that Anna would watch for us, like she honestly gets down and dirty, she does not care." "There was this big pink vibrator," Jamie chuckles. "I don't know why it was even bought, but it was bought!" "Just to look at, I'm sure," Sophie laughs. "Just out of pure fascination." "It's so aggressive!" Jamie bursts out. That is not a 'Rampant Rabbit', it's more like a rampant hare! Jamie Lang Sophie replies jokingly: "We'll just use it as a massager on your foot because that's all it's ever going to get used for!" "It's got weird big little finger-hand things on it! That is not a 'Rampant Rabbit', it's more like a rampant hare! It's absolutely massive - it's got the longest legs I've ever seen in my life." Sophie replies: "You're insinuating that you have a tiny penis right now by being so shocked by the size of a standard-size vibrator!" Sex on the mind Jamie previously got candid about the difference between his and his wife's libidos, after answering questions from listeners. One fan asked: "Who's the horniest?" "We both agree on that one," Jamie said after both he and his wife named him. He then went on to admit: "I honestly would have sex every day,' before adding that his wife had a much lower libido than him, joking that she "would have sex every five years." Oh wait, this is a podcast… forget it. We have had friends who have scheduled time to have sex Jamie Lang However, Sophie clarified that she would actually have sex up to twice a year. "No, I'd have it on your birthday and at Christmas and that would be perfectly [fine]," she said. Jamie went on to tell a story about Sophie's unbothered response about sex. "If this isn't sexy, I don't know what is," he joked. "The other day I was a little bit frisky. I said to Sophie: 'Oh come on honey, let's just do it.' "Sophie's response was 'Alright but I'm not going to do anything.'" "That is only because this boy is like in heat all the time," Sophie explained. "So sometimes I'm like: 'F**k that, I'm not doing anything, I'm exhausted.'" 'Real' & passionate The pair enjoyed not one but two lavish wedding ceremonies in 2023, and Sophie joked she was going 'to have real passionate sex' with her husband Jamie after the second wedding ceremony in Seville on May 19. 16 Jamie also spoke about Sophie's unbothered response about sex Credit: SOPHIE HABBOO INSTAGRAM 16 Sophie admitted that she found it embarrassing that wedding guests thought they would be 'sh***ing' Credit: Getty 16 The pair also revealed that their friends have 'scheduled in sex' before Credit: Instagram/@sophiehabboo Having spoken about other friends 'who have scheduled time to have sex' during their big day, Sophie revealed that she wouldn't want to do that as she'd be 'quite tired' after celebrating. She also revealed that she would find it embarrassing that everyone knows 'they're sh***ing tonight.' Speaking to GK Barry on the Saving Grace podcast, Sophie 'felt sick' discussing the topic of sex on their wedding night, as Jamie "forgot' they were filming a podcast. He added: 'Oh wait, this is a podcast… forget it. We have had friends who have scheduled time to have sex. 'I think getting married there is a lot going on. It's also a really strange and weird thing. 'You have all your friends and family there, you have to walk down the aisle, you have to do a dance, you have to do speeches, you have to stand up and say all these different things. 'Everything is really hectic that by the end of the night you're just knackered.' Sophie added: 'Thank god you're saying that! I think we will be quite tired that night.'
