OHMYGOSSIP — Will Mellor has no interest in joining ‘Emmerdale’.
The 48-year-old actor has had roles on ‘Coronation Street’, ‘EastEnders’ and ‘Hollyoaks’, but he has no desire to set foot in the Yorkshire Dales.
He told The Mirror: “Not really. It’s not like I have … I go round going ‘I want to do all the soaps’. I’m not a massive fan of sheep and cows either. So being up in the Dales isn’t one for me.”
Will has enjoyed his drama roles since starring in ‘Mr Bates vs the Post Office’.
The ‘Teacher’ star said: “To be honest, I do things that … if it feels right at the time, I do it. I don’t sort of set myself out going, ‘I want to do this and that.’ Obviously, now because of [my role in Mr Bates vs the Post Office] there’s been a lot of drama work being fired my way and I enjoy doing the drama work and playing different characters.”
He added: “So it’s all about the characters for me. I don’t sort of set a plan on what I want to do, other than I really want to stay busy but I also want to play different characters. It’s what’s interesting to me. I don’t like sort of being put in one box to go ‘I’m a comedy actor or I’m jack the lad’.”
Will enjoyed getting to play a bad guy for once in drug lord Harvey Gaskell on ‘Corrie’.
He said: “That’s why [the role of Harvey] was appealing to me because I don’t get to play many real bad guys.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Amy Dowden had a second cancer scare.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional was diagnosed with grade-three breast cancer in May 2023, and underwent a mastectomy and rounds of chemotherapy.
In February this year, she was told she was cancer-free.
However, she has now revealed doctors discovered another form of the disease last July, which rocked her world and gave her “sleepless” nights and left her “heartbroken” that she might not return to the show.
Speaking on her BBC documentary ‘Strictly Amy: Cancer and Me’, she said: “It was a scare, such a worrying time.
“I’ll never forget them calling me to say we’re sorry, but we’ve seen something we don’t like the look of. I was in disbelief, I thought I can’t go back through this again, I can’t miss Strictly again. My whole family were heartbroken.”
Amy hopes doing the documentary will remind people to check for the signs of cancer as it saved her life.
She said: “I never thought I would ever, ever be diagnosed with breast cancer at 32.
“I only came across it because I was checking myself. If I wasn’t, I might not be here right now because I had grade three the most aggressive type of cancer. If it can raise awareness and 10 people start checking themselves from watching this documentary, I could potentially save a life.
“Being in the public eye, I knew I wasn’t going to be able to shy away from it. It was scary and daunting, and I did have friends and family saying ‘Are you sure you want to do this? ‘ But it gave me a focus as well throughout all of this.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Vicky Pattison knew on their first date that she would marry Ercan Ramadan.
The 36-year-old former ‘Geordie Shore’ star wed Ercan, 30, in London on Saturday (24.08.24) after a two-year engagement and Vicky admitted she never had any doubts that he was The One.
Writing on Instagram before their ceremony, she said: “I almost didn’t go on this date, I wasn’t in the best place and wasn’t sure if it was right to be dating again when I didn’t feel fully healed. But there was something special about Ercan… So I went. And we chatted and laughed and had the BEST first date ever, it was like we’d known each other years.. But it was more than just getting on with each other and fancying him (ALOT).. there was a kindness to erc aswell, I felt very safe. Anyway, I remember he went to the toilet and I messaged all my pals in the group chat and said ‘lasses, he’s the one. Buy a f****** hat!’
“And here we are, nearly 6 years later… I knew @ercan_ram, from the very first date, I just knew I’d be your wife. See you at the altar today petal… I’ll be the one in white.”
Vicky and Ercan tied the knot at Marylebone Town Hall and will follow it up with a lavish Italian wedding in Puglia.
The couple have also landed a deal with E4 to showcase their nuptials in a two-part special, ‘Vicky Pattison: Destination Wedding’, later this year.
Vicky previously said: “Ercan and I are super excited to share our journey with E4 viewers.
“No doubt there’ll be tears, tantrums and tense moments over table plans! But ultimately, we can’t wait to start this next chapter of our lives surrounded by our incredible friends and family. I’m finally getting my happily ever after.”
Channel 4 dubbed the happy couple’s big day as “a reality royal wedding”.
The network’s Genna Gibson said: “It’s an honour to bring a reality royal wedding to E4. Vicky has shared her unique warmth and wit through many highs and lows over the years – growing up on our screens – and this two-part special is sure to be filled with emotions as she and Ercan get ready to celebrate the biggest day of their lives.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Amy Dowden’s twin sister Rebecca feels guilty that she hasn’t suffered the health issues her sibling has.
‘Strictly Come Dancing’ star Amy, 34, suffered with Crohn’s disease for years and was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer the day after she came home from her honeymoon with husband Ben Jones in 2023.
Now, Rebecca has admitted she can’t understand how Amy has suffered so much while she has been lucky to avoid the health problems her sister has faced.
She told The Sunday Times: “It’s hard being a twin not to feel a sense of guilt. I’ve lived a carefree life. I did all the things you should do as a youngster — going on my first girls’ holiday, going to university, travelling — but because of Crohn’s, Amy never got to do those things.
“When she got her cancer diagnosis last year I would have done anything to take the pain from her. It just doesn’t make sense to me that we shared a womb yet she has been given so much to deal with.”
Rebecca works as a midwife but admitted she is careful about what aspects of her job she discusses with Amy because Amy’s cancer means she cannot conceive naturally.
She said: “There’s almost nothing we don’t share, but being a midwife I’m careful about how much I talk about my job because I’m conscious that, after cancer treatment, Amy has her fertility journey ahead of her.”
Amy previously revealed she underwent fertility treatment to create embryos so she can have children in the future.
Speaking on the ‘Big Fish with Spencer Matthews’ podcast, she said: “The NHS offer an incredible service, that once anyone is diagnosed with cancer, and especially if they have to go through chemotherapy, they are offered the chance to have their eggs removed, and put in the freezer.
“Sometimes your body doesn’t respond, because you’re going through cancer. I had a two-week window. And in that two week window, we managed. And so we got embryos. Now we’ve got five little Amy and Bens.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Helen Flanagan is reportedly dating Robbie Talbot.
The 34-year-old actress was accompanied by the former non-league footballer at her recent birthday party and friends say Helen is “smitten” with Robbie, 44.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: “Helen’s absolutely smitten. They look so good together. She deserves to be happy after everything she’s been through recently.
“She’s tried to keep things out of the public eye, but that’s become difficult as their feelings have grown for each other.
“Helen made no secret of her new relationship at her party, but it is still early days.”
Meanwhile, Helen – who split from sports star Scott Sinclair, 35, with whom she has children Matilda, eight, Delilah, five, and three-year-old Charlie in 2022 after 13 years together – recently admitted she wanted an older man.
She told the Sunday People newspaper: “I like an older man because I feel like they are more emotionally mature, a bit more sensitive. When I go on a date I like it to be with someone who’s maybe been through divorce and who has kids because I feel like they -understand me a bit better. I love funny guys, I feel like a good energy is important. The milf needs a dilf!”
Helen also insisted that she could “never” put herself through a relationship that was filled with arguments again.
She said: “I could never ever have another ¬relationship where I was bickering, I haven’t got an argument left in me. It needs to be easy. I feel as well, and a lot of single mums will relate to this, you work hard to make it work with the father of your children, and I really did. I haven’t got it in me, I did all that with the father of my kids, I don’t have the energy!
“I’ve been single for about two years and I think I need a bit of help, to be honest with you. “It’s been a bit of a disaster, it’s probably just one long cringe! Being single is an eye opener, there are some awful men out there.
“I did go on a few dates from an app and it was hilarious. I don’t really get nervous dating, I probably should have been but I just thought it’s been fun. And also, I’m a single mum of three, so to have a night off has been fun. I am feeling confident right now. ”

OHMYGOSSIP — Olympia Valance is pregnant after a long IVF journey.
The 31-year-old actress married former Australian rules footballer Tom Bellchambers, 35, in 2022 and the couple have been trying to conceive through IVF since July last year.
But in a new update, Olympia admitted she has been “hiding away” from social media for nearly six months so she could “make sure” her pregnancy “wasn’t a dream”.
She wrote on Instagram: “I’ve been hiding away for the past 5 and a half months to make sure this wasn’t all a dream. But you kept growing and growing and it’s starting to look like our dreams have finally come true.
“I’ve been as open and honest as I could about our struggles with infertility and I truly believed that this day wasn’t going to be possible for us. So when I saw this positive pregnancy test I have to admit, at the time, I wasn’t jumping for joy. I was full of fear because that’s all I’ve known. But as the weeks kept going by it was hard to wipe the smile off our faces.
“To the little one we never thought we’d meet, we can’t wait to hold you in our arms. You were worth every tear, every setback, and every prayer.
“To all the people who supported us through the darkest days, thank you. I know I wouldn’t have made it to this point without the strength of my family and friends who managed to hold me up when I was falling apart (sic)”
The ‘Neighbours’ star – whose older sister Holly Valance also found fame on the Australian soap opera before launching a pop career in the early 2000s – also wanted to acknowledge those who also might be struggling and remind them to “stay strong and keep fighting” in their efforts to start a family.
She said: “It is also incredibly important for me to recognise that although this is the best news in the world for Thomas and I, my heart aches for anyone that sees this and feels pain. It was so hard for me to write this because it feels like I’m caught between two worlds. It’s not an easy road and I wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. It’s one hell of an emotional roller coaster. Stay strong, keep fighting, but most importantly don’t forget to be kind to yourself”

OHMYGOSSIP — Emma Willis and Matt Willis had therapy to save their marriage.
The 48-year-old TV presenter married Busted singer Matt, 41, in 2008 but the pair sought professional help after realising there were a couple of “sticking points” they couldn’t see eye to eye on, and Emma reluctantly agreed to Matt’s therapy suggestion.
Speaking on the ‘NewlyWeds’ podcast, she said: “That was a big switch for us, actually, and we didn’t go because we were in trouble, we didn’t go because we were like, this is a sinking ship.
“We were like, there’s a couple of sticking points here that we can’t understand each other’s viewpoints on. So let’s get a third party to try and figure out why we can’t see where each other’s coming on.
“Matt was the one that suggested, actually, I’d never had therapy. I was like, ‘I’m all right, nothing wrong with me.’ Another example of when Matt was right.”
The former ‘Big Brother’ host – who now has kids Isabelle, 15, Ace, 12, and seven-year-old Trixie with Matt – also admitted she wasn’t really a fan of the ‘What I Go To School For’ hitmakers until she got to know her husband, and she actually tried to stop him when he got down on one knee to propose.
She said: “I wasn’t into them when I met him, but then when I met him, and I got to know him, and kind of saw him in action.
“He whipped out this box and he started to drop, and I just grabbed him around the neck. “I went, ‘Don’t you dare’. I was like, ‘Oh, there’s loads of people around and they’re all gonna look at us and oh, my God, how embarrassing.’ ”
Emma and her husband are now co-hosting Netflix dating show ‘Love Is Blind’, and they believe the format is the “complete opposite” of other dating programmes because the end goal is marriage rather than a cash prize.
She told The Sun newspaper: “It’s not like ‘Big Brother’ was, there’s no cash prize. At the end of it is a legal ­wedding. You can’t enter into it lightly.
“You’ve got to genuinely want to be settling down.
“A lot of the cast have something they’re dealing with or ­obstacles they have had to overcome, and it’s not done in a sob story way.
“We’ve all got something, right? You’ve got to put all your cards on the table and hope you’ve got a … what’s a good card analogy?”

OHMYGOSSIP — Bobby Brazier dreams of moving to Italy later in life.
The ‘EastEnders’ actor was a joint runner-up on last year’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ series, but even before his exploits on the BBC Latin and ballroom series, he has dreamt of dancing along the Italian streets with the “love of [his] life” when the couple are “old and wrinkly”.
He told the London Evening Standard newspaper: “Even before ‘Strictly’, I’ve always had this dream of moving away to maybe Italy or wherever with the love of my life and we’re both old and wrinkly and we’re just in ballroom hold dancing up and down the streets – not very well, because we can’t move, but you know, we’re in a hold at least.”
For now, Bobby – who was previously romantically linked to his ‘Strictly’ co-star and former ‘Coronation Street’ actress Ellie Leach – is remaining tight-lipped about who he is dating, if anyone, and admitted he finds it “funny” when people ask him.
Speaking about his love life, he said: “I just imagine that people don’t really care.
“I mean, surely people don’t really care, or surely people understand to take things with a little pinch of salt. But I find it funny.”
As well as dreaming of jetting off to Italy to dance and live later in life, Bobby – who portrays Freddie Slater in ‘EastEnders’ – wants to concentrate on improving his acting ability in the near future.
He said: “There’s a skill to be learnt which I like.
“It’s a real endeavour and I feel like you never really stop learning. I want to be good – I want to be good at what I do.
“I want to keep learning, keep progressing, keep taking opportunities.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Amy Dowden is living by the motto “go grab life” following her cancer battle.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ star underwent a mastectomy and chemotherapy after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023, and was told there were no signs of the disease in February.
Amy has been inspired to live life to the full after meeting a girl who sadly lost her battle with cancer.
Speaking on her new BBC documentary ‘Strictly Amy: Cancer And Me’, she said: “Go grab life. Nikki, a remarkable young lady in her 30s who I connected to online unfortunately passed away from breast cancer during my treatment last year. She always said ‘Go grab life’ and that’s what she did. I’m determined to live by her motto.”
After losing her hair and gaining weight amid her treatments, Amy learned that “appearance really doesn’t matter”.
She said: “I’ve learned… having my hair, my eyebrows, my eyelashes stripped away from me… I gained two stone in weight. I was on steroids, chemo, broken foot you name it and I’ve learned that appearance really doesn’t matter.
“Your soul shines through. I was stripped bare and still accepted. I’ve learnt to love and appreciate every single moment even more in life.”
Amy hopes doing the documentary will remind people to check for the signs of cancer as it saved her life.
She said: “I never thought I would ever, ever be diagnosed with breast cancer at 32.
“I only came across it because I was checking myself. If I wasn’t, I might not be here right now because I had grade three the most aggressive type of cancer. If it can raise awareness and 10 people start checking themselves from watching this documentary, I could potentially save a life.
