Emmerdale reveals Will Taylor’s revenge plot against estranged wife Kim Tate 

EMMERDALE has unveiled Will Taylor’s drastic measures to get revenge on estranged wife Kim Tate.

The pair have been at odds in recent weeks following Kim discovering Will’s secret sex with his ex, Rose.

Following Kim bedding financial advisor Peter, Will decided to get his own back.

The character – played by Dean Andrews – seemingly had a night of passion with Kerry Wyatt (Laura Norton) much to Kim’s irritation.

He later told friend Jimmy King (Nick Miles) about the deed, much to Jimmy’s surprise.

The whole thing turned out to be ruse as Will paid Kerry in front of Jimmy and Kerry’s daughter Amy (Natalie Ann Jamieson).

Explaining, Will said: “I just needed someone to pretend to sleep with me. Kerry needed some cash, so it was like a win-win.”

While Kerry added: “Yeah, a little consensual non sex never hurt anyone, did it?”

Although Jimmy wasn’t convinced it was the right move, Will claimed the trick was “worth every penny” as Kim would still be angry.

Jimmy told his friend: “Like I’ve already said, you can end this.

“It’s not too late to save your marriage, if you still want it.”

Previously, Kim concocted a plan to blackmail her own husband when he believed he owed someone money.

Will eventually learned the truth, however, when Kim led him on a woodland chase.

This resulted in him finding his very own grave.

Kim cackled as she saw Will fall atop a coffin amid his deceit as her nasty side came back out in full force.

Will had been left seething after seeing his soon to be ex-wife cosying up to Peter right by his face.

When Lydia Dingle (Karen Blick) speaks to Kim, the Home Farm owner admitted she isn’t feeling as good upsetting Will as she had hoped.

Best soap affair love triangles

LOVE triangles are a fundamental part of soap-land, but which ones have become the most iconic?

EASTENDERS

Bradley/Stacey/Max: Stacey Slater began an affair with boyfriend Bradley Branning’s dad Max in 2007.

Despite their romps, Stacey still married Bradley, but their deceit came out in an iconic Christmas Day episode that year.

Grant/Sharon/Phil: Heading even further back in Walford history, EastEnders fans were gripped in the 90s as Sharon Watts had a one-night stand with her brother-in-law Phil Mitchell.

Sharon confided in best friend Michelle Fowler – not realising it was caught on tape – and her husband Grant eventually found out and played it in front of everyone at the Queen Vic.

Syed/Amira/Christian: Syed Masood was engaged to Amira before realising he had feelings for another man, Christian, which he confessed to him on his wedding day.

A devout Muslim, Syed refused to admit his true sexuality and went ahead and married Amira anyway, but when they returned, the two men started an affair before being caught in the act by Amira.

CORONATION STREET

Shelley/Peter/Lucy: Peter Barlow took the concept of a love triangle and ran with it in Coronation Street – extending it to bigamy.

He was in a relationship with Shelley Unwin but started dating Lucy Richards, and quickly married her after she fell pregnant with his son, Simon.

But it didn’t stop him also marrying Shelley, but he was eventually caught when Lucy turned up in Weatherfield and the two women confronted him.

Ken/Deidre/Mike: Back in 1982, Deirdre Barlow started sleeping with her husband’s nemesis Mike Baldwin in secret, before confessing all a year later.

When Mike turned up at the marital home, Deirdre was being throttled by her husband who then kicked her out, but years later they reconciled.

Maria/Aidan/Eva: In 2017, Aidan Connor started sleeping with girlfriend Eva Price’s best friend, Maria Connor.

Eva eventually found out and she decided to take revenge by faking a pregnancy, spending his money and planned to confront him on their wedding day.

But she had a change of heart when a remorseful Aidan confessed, and decided to marry him anyway, only for Maria to arrive and expose her fake pregnancy.

EMMERDALE

Ross/Debbie/Pete: Debbie Dingle found herself torn between two brothers, Ross and Pete Barton in 2015 in Emmerdale.

She eventually decided to marry Pete but yet again, a soap wedding day was ruined when the groom learned of his bride’s betrayal via a recording played at the wedding.

Chrissie/Robert/Aaron: Robert Sugden was married to Chrissie White and all seemed well – until he began a steamy affair with Aaron Dingle.

Robert’s ex Katie Sugden almost exposed the affair – but fell to her death before she had the chance.

However, a guilty Aaron eventually cracked and told Chrissie about the affair – after which she announced it to the whole pub.

In fact, Kim was even contemplating giving their marriage another go.

Lydia told her that if there is a chance she still loves Will, she should tell him.

Is there no way back for the couple?

Emmerdale airs on ITV1 and is available to watch on ITVX.

I wore extensions for 20 years but now my hair is thicker thanks to an Amazon buy – it’s half price for Prime Day today

IF you’re locks have started to thin out, an Amazon buy may be able to help.

One woman shared the product she swears by for transforming her hair.

The shopper said her hair felt ‘so much thicker’ two months after she began taking the tablets (after picture)[/caption]

The unnamed Amazon shopper revealed that the beauty buy helped to elevate her locks.

She revealed that she previously relied on hair extensions to fill out her tresses.

“I’ve always worn clip in hair extensions for 20 years,” she wrote in her review.

“I was fed up of not being able to run my fingers through my hair and habit of clipping the extensions, but so impatient to let it grow.

“I was determined this time but I’m a person if I don’t see results in a week then the extensions are going back in, seriously.”

However, she said she “would never look back” after purchasing the £19.99 Perfectil Hair Beauty Supplement Tablets.

She revealed that her mother-in-law recommended the product to her.

The 60-pack is currently available at the reduced rate of £9.98 as part of Amazon’s Prime Day sale.

Perfectil tablets contain biotin, selenium ,and zinc, which “all contribute to the maintenance of normal hair.”

According to manufacturers, the “specialist formula also includes amino acids, marine collagen, inositol, and grapeseed extract.”

The multivitamins are also designed to help strengthen nails and treat the skin.

Perfectil recommend taking two tablets a day with a main meal.

They also advise anyone taking the pills to use them as a replacement for their daily multivitamin.

The impressed shopper said she wished she had known about the tablets sooner.

“My hair felt different in a week and now nearly two months after starting these, the thickness, length, and condition is something I thought I’d never achieve so quickly,” she wrote.

Hair growth ingredients

  • Biotin: Boosts the existence of Keratin in the body.
  • Selenium: Strengthens hair follicles and reduces inflammation in the scalp.
  • Zinc: Promotes the growth of strong and resilient hair strands.
  • Amino acids: Prevents breakage and encourges growth.
  • Marine collagen: Promotes hair growth.
  • Inositol: Stimulates cell production and prevents oxidative stress from damaging follicles when it comes to hair loss.
  • Grapeseed extract: Jumpstarts the hair cycle and pushes the follicle from the phase in which most hair is lost to the phase in which active hair growth occurs. 

She included progress pictures to show her hair re-growth transformation.

Her first two photographs were taken before starting the supplements and after a month of use.

The final image showed her hair growth after taking the tablets for “nearly two months.”

“From someone who is impatient and was addicted to hair extensions, this is definitely a product I’d recommend,” she wrote.

The woman added that she would “never put hair extensions in again.”

Megan shared video footage of her new arrival in a sweet instagram video.

She announced his name and revealed that he was born on October 7 at 8.33am, weighing 9lbs 2oz.

The adorable home movie footage taken after the birth showed both Megan and Oliver cuddling their bundle of joy.

The cutie was also seen rubbing his face as he slept and enjoyed a feed.

The couple were soon inundated with wellwishes from their celeb pals.

“Congratulations,” commented Michelle Keegan, alongside a string of heart emojis.

“Congratulations! He is perfection,” added Shaughna Phillips.

“Awww congratulations Megan a beautiful baby boy,” weighed in Sophie Kasaei.

And Laura Anderson wrote: “Omg huge congratulations mumma. You absolute superstar!!!!! He is perfect.”

Earlier this month it was revealed that happy couple Megan and Oliver, 27, recently moved to Germany.

Megan announced that the couple were moving overseas earlier this month.

The star told her Instagram followers: “Guess what? I’m moving to Germany!”

“I know I did some stories yesterday about packing, and a few of you thought I was going into labour, no, but let’s hope I don’t go into labour as I am now giving birth in Germany.”

She continued: “Ollie is in Germany and all of our stuff has been in storage for a couple of months.”

“Guess what? I’m moving to Germany!”

“I know I did some stories yesterday about packing, and a few of you thought I was going into labour, no, but let’s hope I don’t go into labour as I am now giving birth in Germany.”

She continued: “Ollie is in Germany and all of our stuff has been in storage for a couple of months.”

The move, which has come about as her 26 year old fiancé is currently playing for German Bundesliga club Werder Bremen, shocked her fans. 

Megan announced the news she was pregnant in April.

She shared a cute video with the caption: ““A little bit of you and a little bit of me… now we’re a family.”

After announcing the news, the MasterChef star revealed their secret IVF journey.

Megan, who has PCOS, revealed they had tried to fall pregnant naturally, but it hadn’t happened, so went to a fertility clinic.

After months of injections and a number of hurdles, they fell pregnant.

Megan’s pregnancy hasn’t been easy as she’s been in hospital a number of times over the past nine months.

The mum-to-be sparked concern with fans back in July when she suffered a fall while heavily pregnant.

She was also left bedridden while on holiday in Dubai in May, telling fans that she was in “so much pain” due to her tooth.

Weeks before Megan was rushed to hospital with swollen tongue and throat, which was her second allergic reaction in two weeks.

Fans were also convinced that they knew the gender of the star’s unborn baby after telling clues.

Megan and Oliver got engaged last year after five months of dating.

Strictly’s Dianne Buswell takes a swipe at Toyah Willcox after she was slammed by fans for ‘dig’ at Chris McCausland

STRICTLY Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell appeared to take a swipe at Toyah Wilcox after she was called out for her dig at Chris McCausland.

The 35-year-old dancer was left likening Toyah‘s appearance to the Wayne’s World character Garth Algar in what some fans may take as her hitting back against the 80s singer after comment she made about Dianne’s partner Chris.

Dianne took to Instagram alongside comedian Chris for a video update in which they thanked fans for their support during their Movies Week routine.

It was in this clip that Dianne took her subtle swipe at Toyah with a very telling comment.

Chris told Dianne she “looked great” in character as Garth but she soon quipped that she more closely resembled Toyah.

The dancer answered back: “Yeah, I looked a bit like Toyah as well.”

Chris then said: “Yeah, Garth slash Toyah.”

For her look, Dianne donned a thick blonde wig as well as huge black glasses and paired it with a simple shirt and jeans combo for the performance.

Toyah had previously left Strictly viewers stunned when she appeared to take a “swipe” at Chris on Monday.

It came about when host Fleur East asked her: “You are such a tightknit group as well this year, do you have any advice or tips for the other celebs?”

Toyah laughed and started clapping, before pointing at the camera and shouting: “If you don’t want to do a dance off, get rid of Chris!”

Fleur then looked off camera and grimaced while Toyah then clarified: “You are all going to have to face a dance off.”

However, Toyah has since set the record straight and posted her own message on Instagram.

Sharing a picture of Chris, the singer wrote: “Just to clarify and clear up any confusion that’s flying around.

“My good friend @chrismccausland, is my favourite to win this year, I think he is inspiring and brilliant, he has worked so hard and I wish him nothing but love! Toyah x.”

Watch test of navy’s £1bn Sea Venom missiles which can destroy ships 12 miles away with precise infrared seeker

INCREDIBLE footage has captured the moment the Royal Navy tested out their new £1billion Sea Venom missiles which can destroy ships miles away.

The Wildcat HMA Mk2 already packs a punch, able to fire Sting Ray torpedoes at underwater threats and lightweight Martlet missiles at smaller targets.

The latest development will see the Royal Navy’s maritime helicopters pack an even bigger punch[/caption]

But until now, the maritime helicopters have not had a way to target larger ships like corvettes.

That has now changed with the first guided firing of the Sea Venom missile at a practice target at the MOD Aberporth range in Wales.

It means that attack choppers will soon pack an even bigger punch and be able to destroy more heavily armoured ships.

This missile is a significant upgrade, offering 10 times the firepower of the Martlet and specifically designed to tackle more heavily armoured vessels.

Lieutenant Commander Robin Kenchington, from the Royal Navy‘s test and evaluation squadron 744 Naval Air Squadron, said: “It was fantastic to see a full end-to-end demonstration of the missile.

“Every aspect of the firing worked well – from the ease-of-use in-cockpit for crews, through the performance of the missile in flight, right up to the accuracy on the target.

“The Wildcat has another potent addition to its arsenal, increasing the ability of front-line crews to fight from a greater stand-off distance; this maximises their lethality whilst keeping them safe from enemy defences.”

The target vessel was designed and built by QinetiQ engineers, made of three containers atop a barge.

Each container wall had multiple individually controlled heating elements to simulate a target more accurately.

The firing marks a significant milestone in the integration of Sea Venom onto Wildcat.

It will add to the potent array of weaponry protecting Royal Navy warships, namely the Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers.

Pete Fawcett, the Senior Responsible Owner of the Future Air-to-Surface Guided Weapon, said: “This first guided firing is a significant step forward for the integration of Sea Venom onto the Royal Navy’s Wildcat helicopters.

“The success of the trial was the result of an outstanding team effort across Leonardo UK, MBDA, QinetiQ and the Ministry of Defence.”

The Yeovilton-based Wildcat Maritime Force, some 400 people and 28 Wildcats under its two squadrons, are those pushing the maritime variant of the helicopter – the HMA Mk2 – into the future.

The 815 Naval Air Squadron takes care of front-line operational work on Royal Navy ships around the world.

Meanwhile, its sister 825 Naval Air Squadron’s business is training and developing the aircraft, identifying, and understanding its potential.

The Wildcats, which came into service in 2015, have been given notable firepower in recent years, with the addition of a new weapons-carriage to carry torpedoes and missiles.

The helicopters can also wield a.50 calibre machine gun on its door and play host to Royal Marines sniper teams capable of knocking out a drug smuggling speed boat from range.

The programme has been a collaborative effort by MOD and industry teams around the UK and consisted of a single firing.

Commodore Nick Sargent, DE&S’ Head of Helicopters, added: “These firings mark a vital step forward in the integration of the Sea Venom missile into what is already an outstanding helicopter to provide the Royal Navy with a world-class capability.

“I am grateful to all those across industry and the Ministry of Defence who have worked so hard to achieve this milestone.”

What are Sea Venom missiles?

Sea Venom is the latest weapon to be developed, replacing the Sea Skua which went out of service in 2017.

This modern anti-ship missile can engage targets from safe distances of up to 20km and has a 30kg warhead.

It offers a variety of different flight profiles – including sea skimming – and can be fired in a salvo.

It’s a big leap in technology for the Wildcat, featuring a two-way data link that allows the operator to control the missile during flight.

This means they can re-target, correct the final aim, or safely abort the mission if needed.

It comes after Britain’s new nuclear attack submarine with a Rolls-Royce reactor and six torpedoes launched for the first time.

HMS Agamemnon, the latest Royal Navy Astute Class attack sub, set off at BAE Systems in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria.

Named after the ancient Greek king who launched the Trojan War, it is the sixth of seven, all of which have been designed and built at the Company’s historic Barrow shipyard – home of UK submarine building.

The nuclear-powered boat, which weighs in at 7,400 tonnes and is 97 metres long, rolled out of the Devonshire Dock Hall and entered the water this morning.

Agamemnon will now begin the next phase of its test and commissioning programme, before leaving Barrow for sea trials with the Royal Navy.

New dad Jack Grealish reveals why he would never ask Bukayo Saka to babysit and which England pal he’ll go to for tips

JACK GREALISH has revealed which England team-mates he would and would NOT ask to babysit for him.

The Manchester City and England star and long-term partner Sasha Attwood had a daughter at the end of last month.

The couple welcomed a baby girl named Mila on September 27, hours before Grealish lined up to play for City against Newcastle.

It follows his Three Lions comeback under interim manager Lee Carsley after missing out on the Euro 2024 squad.

And speaking to BBC 5 Live Sport ahead of clashes against Greece and Finland, the 29-year-old has now revealed which England team-mates he would be happy to let babysit his kid.

On the best, he said: “Harry Kane I think. It’s quite a young team so I wouldn’t put it on any of the young lads and you know Harry, he’s so reliable.

“One of the oldest lads, so yeah I’d go Harry.”

He was then asked about club-mate Phil Foden, who himself has three children.

Grealish added: “Well yeah, you could say Phil actually. He’s got a fair few hasn’t he?

“[But] Yeah, I’m going to go Harry Kane.”

The former Aston Villa star was then quizzed on who he reckons the worst babysitter would be.

He said: “The worst… I’m going to go [Bukayo] Saka. Yeah I’m going to go Bukayo.

“I just reckon he would be sloppy, you know, falling asleep and that.”

Grealish was also asked who he would go to for parenting advice.

On that topic, he replied: “I’d go with [Jordan] Pickford. [I’m] Quite close with him.”

He then added: “You know what actually, I could go with Dec [Declan Rice] as well.

“Maybe Dec or Jordan. Yeah, one of them two.”

The penultimate question saw him asked who he reckons would be the “fun dad” out of the squad.

He said: “Can you go yourself or… Yeah go on I’ll put myself down for that one.”

The final question got him to name the “strict dad” of the group.

He replied: “I reckon someone like Marc Guehi. Just quite firm, you know, serious. Uncle Marc.”

At the age of just 24 years old many of his peers at international level have given the Crystal Palace defender the nickname “Uncle Marc”.

Jude Bellingham and Ezri Konsa first revealed the nickname back in July, while Kyle Walker also mentioned the name when speaking to John Stones about who could be a good future manager.

Grealish scored his third England goal last month against the Republic of Ireland and has earned 38 caps so far.

Inside Sasha Attwood and Jack Grealish's relationship

Sasha Attwood and Jack Grealish have become parents for the first time, but their relationship started well over a decade ago...

The pair met as teens in Solihull, West Midlands at secondary school, with Sasha previously saying they have been together since she was 15.

Jack was already on his way to becoming a professional footballer when he met Sasha.

Despite the long-term nature of their relationship, she remained on the sidelines when his career took off.

However, intense interest in Jack’s private life came to a head in 2021 when England reached the final of Euro 2020, delayed a year because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Because of their romance, Sasha was cruelly targeted by trolls on TikTok and Instagram, receiving 200 death threats a day from “young girls”.

The pair were spotted on holiday together following the tournament and slowly began showing more of their relationship on social media when the vile trolling died down.

In 2022, they celebrated their 10-year anniversary and purchased a seven-bed mansion set in 24 acres worth £5.6 million.

They moved in to the home in late 2023, but Sasha and members of Jack’s family were subject to a terrifying robbery while cheering on the Manchester City star during a televised match just after Christmas.

Their latest milestone is Sasha’s pregnancy, which they announced on social media on July 7, and the birth of daughter Mila Rose on September 27.
