MARRIED At First Sight UK fans are certain one of the brides fancies Adam after Polly was left furious over a comment about ‘lingerie’.

Polly, 28, was absolutely fuming with her husband, 35, after learning that he had flirted behind her back with her female friend.

In the penultimate episode of the series, the remaining newlyweds had gathered together for the last dinner party.

Before they sat around the table, Amy quietly told Polly that Adam had suggested she ‘model some underwear’ during Couples’ Swap week.

Amy’s revelation then set the wheels in motion for an explosive dinner party, which left Polly and Adam screaming obscenities at each other.

But sharing their thoughts on the drama, fans are convinced Amy had deliberately ‘stirred the pot’ because she has the hots for Adam.

One MAFS UK viewer wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter: “Is it just me or does it look like Amy is absolutely loving telling Polly about Adam’s comments?”

Another added: “So. Do we think Amy fancies a bit of Adam and is trying to sabotage??”

And a third chimed in: “Amy stirring the pot but I for real think she likes Adam.”

Amy first let slip the lingerie remark while talking to her husband Luke and fellow couple Lacey and Nathan on a sofa.

In hushed tones, she told them: “On Couples’ Swap week, she said Adam doesn’t pay her compliments or give her compliments. But he was throwing compliments at me.

“‘Why don’t you try the lingerie set on, you can model it’. I took it as banterous but now I’m thinking about her feelings. Maybe I need to tell her.”

Moments later, Polly and Adam walked through the door.

There was already tension brewing between the couple before Amy dropped her bombshell.

Polly was telling her pals how she was struggling to get on with Adam, to which Amy replied: “This is not you, it’s not all you.”

She continued: “We were just having a chat before you came in.

“When we went to the lingerie shop, Adam said to me like, ‘Why don’t you model that and we’ll see if it looks nice on Pols?”

“And he made comments about being sexy and stuff, but I just took that as banter.”

Amy added: “He can’t be saying that about other girls.”

Speaking alone to the camera, Polly exclaimed: “Oh my God.

“Adam really struggles giving me a bear minimum compliment.

“So to make banterful comments to Amy about being sexy is b****cks and I’ll definitely be pulling him up on it today.”

Polly did exactly that and the pair came to blows and began shouting and swearing at each other at the dinner table.

“It’s f***ing out of order. It’s not banter!” Polly yelled.

Turning to Amy, Adam said: “I didn’t give you a compliment?”

Amy slyly smiled and said: “I think so.”

“I said you looked sexy and that?” Adam asked her.

Things then reached fever pitch as Adam and Polly’s row became even more furious and foul-mouthed, with it appearing to viewers there is no way back for the pair.

Married At First Sight UK concludes tomorrow night (Tuesday November 12).

Whoopi Goldberg and her fellow panelists on The View have defended Nicole Scherzinger after the former Pussycat Dolls star became embroiled in a controversy over Russell Brand’s Jesus hat.

The singer sparked a fierce backlash after commenting “Where do I get this hat!!!?” on an Instagram post showing Brand holding a red baseball cap with the slogan: “Make Jesus First Again.”

Brand’s post celebrated Donald Trump’s 2024 US presidential election win, and many fans online interpreted Scherzinger’s comment to be a message of support for the president-elect.

The backlash was so severe that many speculated it might harm Scherzinger’s chances of winning a Tony for her acclaimed Broadway performance as Norma Desmond in Sunset Blvd.

However, on today’s (November 11) episode of The View, several panelists came to Scherzinger’s defense.

Ana Navarro said: “Emotions are so raw. It’s overkill. I think people are losing their minds. Right now social media is a rough, rough place to be. You can literally post a picture of puppies and there will be people attacking you. Every day I get thousands of people telling me to ‘go eat another burrito and go back to Mexico.’ I ain’t going anywhere.”

Sara Haines added that “the mob mentality on social media” is “poisonous and toxic,” and said: “People are calling for her to not be nominated for a Tony. This has gotten out of control.”

On Friday (November 8), Scherzinger took to Instagram to apologize for her comment: “I deeply apologize for the hurt caused by my recent engagement with some social media posts.

“When I commented on these posts, I made the mistake of not realizing they could easily be interpreted as being politically related and I apologize to anyone who understandably reached that conclusion.”

She continued: “Many presumptions are being drawn, which do not reflect who I am, what I stand for, or who I voted for.

“Many of the marginalized communities feeling hurt and concerned by the results of the presidential election are people I care about most. I stand with them, as I always have, throughout my life and career. If you know me, you know that.”

On The View, Navarro argued that Scherzinger “shouldn’t have apologized” as she had nothing to be sorry for. She then joked: “Does this mean I can get tickets now for the show because it was very sold out.”

Goldberg replied: “And it’s still going to be very sold out.”

“She’s brilliant in the show,” Goldberg added. “She liked a hat. Relax. She liked a hat about Jesus. I would think that would be a unifying thing. It’s a hat. It’s just a hat.”

RUBY Allen is just days away from making a dramatic return to EastEnders and she looks set to be locked in a heated confrontation as soon as she arrives in Walford.

The character, played by Louisa Lytton, hasn’t been seen on-screens for three years after being sent to prison for running an illegal cannabis farm from the Slater household.

Ruby was pregnant at the time and now it appears to have been confirmed that the father of her secret child is in fact Martin Fowler.

Fans first began to suspect this could be the case when it was formally confirmed two months ago that Ruby had left jail to give birth.

She had been a cellmate of Chrissie Watts at the time who told Sharon about Ruby and the baby during their time locked up together in September.

The news has been playing on Sharon’s mind ever since and now it seems that she has the proof she needs to reveal that Martin is the father to the baby boy.

In scenes set to be screened upon her return next week, Ruby will be left clashing with both Martin and Sharon.

With her son’s birth certificate missing, it comes as no shock that Ruby finds herself banging down their doors in a quest to find answers.

But will the truth be revealed?

Ahead of her big soap comeback, Louisa spoke exclusively to The Sun’s TV Mag about what is in store for her character.

Expressing her delight at her character being a mum, the star said: “It’s lovely to come in playing a mum now that I’m a mum – there’s nothing like knowing those feelings.

“Being a mum has finally given Ruby a purpose in life, which I think has been something that’s been missing for a long time.”

Teasing her upcoming stint, she said: “That’s Ruby’s character – she comes in and ruffles feathers, does the wrong thing and says the wrong thing, and she definitely comes back with a lot of drama.

“But now she’s a mum, she does have her priorities in order. Although she’ll still make mistakes, I don’t think she’ll go out of her way to make mistakes or make wrong decisions like she has done in the past.

“I was so nervous to come back – just because it’s nerve-wracking starting any job – but within half a day, I felt like I’d never left. It felt new in some aspects, but also just felt like home.

“I’ve been a part of this show for 20 years now, so it feels right for Ruby to come back.

“I feel like there’s so much we need to wrap up with her. There’s so many characters that she has a history with.”

Yellowstone has returned to Paramount+ for the start of its final season, and the premiere featured a dedication to Billy Klapper.

The return of the show, created by Taylor Sheridan, has been littered with controversy due to the absence of lead star Kevin Costner, who left the series amid rumours of behind-scenes-tensions and to concentrate on his passion project, the film series Horizon.

The first episode of season 5B sees a scene where Rip, played by Cole Hauser, stops by a loriner to purchase a horse bit for Lloyd (Forrie J. Smith).

While at the loriner, Rip admires an impeccably crafted set of spurs, created from a single piece of metal. The spurs were actually created by the late loriner Billy Klapper, who was well-regarded within the cowboy and ranching communities for his artistry.

The loriner featured in the scene is none other than Klapper himself, who died earlier this year on 10 September aged 87. During the episode, the official Yellowstone X/Twitter account wrote: “Billy Klapper is a LEGEND!”

Klapper began making spurs way back in 1966 having been trained by fellow famed spur maker Adolph Bayers while working as a ranch hand. His craftsmanship and items soon became sought after and he eventually took up the profession full time.

Klapper, who is from Pampa, began working at the Buckle L Ranch in Childress and then later at the Y Ranch in Paducah.

He married his wife Roberta in 1973 and the couple remained together until her death in 2021.

In his obituary, it said: “Billy will be remembered as a good man, a friend to all, and most of all a true cowboy. He is going to be deeply missed by his family and friends. Billy put the ‘western’ in western heritage for years and now he is a part of the heritage.”

Before his death, in an interview with Western Horseman magazine, Klapper admitted: “It got to a point that I had so many orders, I was going to have to quit [making bits and spurs] or quit cowboying, either on.

“I may have to work a little harder at this, but I thought I could make more money and stay warm in the wintertime. I liked to cowboy, but there’s no money in it, and I had a family. It’s just living from one paycheck to another.”

AN EX Strictly judge and Coronation Street star both slammed the decision that saw Shayne Ward leave the BBC Show Strictly.

Arlene Phillips and Shayne’s Corrie co-star Catherine Tyldesley took to social media to complain that the judges were wrong.

Shayne and his partner Nancy Xu ended up in the nerve-wracking dance-off with Wynne Evans and Katya Jones.

When the judges votes were cast, Craig Revel-Horwood and Motsi Mabuse voted for Shayne and Nancy to stay.

While Anton Du Beke chose Wynne and Katya.

Head Judge, Shirley then had the deciding vote meaning whoever she chose would stay in the competition.

But fans of the show were shocked when Shirley explained one couple showed more energy and then went on to pick Wynne and Katya to stay.

Arlene posted on social media and slammed Shirley and Anton’s decision for choosing Wynne and Katya.

Posting a photo of Shayne and Nancy she said: “I disagreed with the @bbcstrictly judges last night on which couple stayed.

“Watching @shaynetward at the start of the competition I didn’t think he would get this far.

“From being a clumsy dancer last night turned into an actor and a dancer, portraying a beautiful partnership with @nancy_xuxi

“the dance felt romantic and true and I was sorry to see this couple go.”

Catherine was quick to support Arlene’s post and make her thoughts clear: “Thankyou for standing up for him!

“Like you did for me all those years ago. I know how upset he will be and your words will lift him as they did for me.”

Arlene’s fans flocked to comment with one saying: “Agree! It was crazy that Shirley said ‘one couple showed more energy’ as obviously Wynne’s dance was that style

“Shayne’s Rumba is not an ‘energetic dance’ and is always a notoriously tough one for the male celebs

Strictly Curse – The Lowdown

STRICTLY Come Dancing’s latest series has already been hit by rumours of a BBC show ‘curse’ – yet what is it?

A host of Strictly Come Dancing stars have been struck by the Strictly Curse during the past two decades.

This is where celebrities who may or may not be attached in the outside world become more than friends with their professional partners.

A total of 20 relationships are said to have been impacted so far over the show’s 20 years.

It has seen relationships crumble with dance floor romances and punishing rehearsal schedules to blame.

This includes the partnerships of Louise and Jamie Redknapp as well as Kevin Clifton and Karen Hauer.

Controversially, Judge Craig Revel Horwood once said of the curse: “I think of it as a blessing, to be honest. One person is married, the other one had a girlfriend but my point in this entire thing is: if you come on Strictly, sometimes you are in a relationship that is not working anyway.

“There has to be something wrong in your relationship before it all goes awry.”

Series one winner Brendan Cole left his fiancé, fellow Strictly professional Camilla Dallerup, during filming for the very first series in spring 2004. 

Brendan was said to have fallen for his celebrity partner and inaugural winner Natasha Kaplinsky, although the duo didn’t confirm they were romantically involved.

“but I thought he danced it beautifully and should have stayed”

Another viewer posted: “Thank you Arlene. A voice of professional reason. I thought they got it wrong too!”

A third added: “Wrong decision by Shirley!!! Wynne was so clumsy looking jumping about like a circus act.

“Shayne’s dance was fabulous and full of emotion so sad to see him go”

But some fans agreed with Shirley’s decision and said: “Had everyone forgot he has been in the bottom 2-3 times. It was time to go.”

Another added: “Three strikes and out. Seems fair enough to me, they did well getting to week 8”

Strictly airs on Saturdays and Sundays on BBC One

The creator of the hit Netflix drama Squid Game has admitted he lost “eight or nine” teeth because he was so stressed while making the series.

The South Korean dystopian thriller saw huge success when it debuted in 2021, with Netflix estimating that it was watched by over 142 million households within the first 28 days of release. It sees hundreds of cash-strapped contestants compete in a series of deadly children’s games in an attempt to win a life-changing sum. The second season is set to arrive on Netflix on 26 December this year.

Hwang Dong-hyuk, the show’s creator, told the BBC that he had been so consumed with stress while shooting season one that he had lost nine teeth. It had previously been reported he had lost six.

Initially, the director’s experience of the workload meant that he didn’t want to shoot a second series, but the prospect of earning money changed his mind.

“Even though the first series was such a huge global success, honestly I didn’t make much,” he said. “So doing the second series will help compensate me for the success of the first one too.”

“And I didn’t fully finish the story,” he added.

Since almost every character was killed off in the last series, the director has to start from the beginning, and create a whole new cast from scratch, as well as a new set of games.

The show’s fictional previous winner, Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), will re-enter the game on a mission to bring it down and save the latest round of contestants.

The second series may also offer viewers some answers to their burning questions, such as what is motivating the masked Front Man who runs the game, and why the game exists.

Last November, the streamer debuted the first season of its spin-off reality game series, Squid Game: The Challenge, which similarly saw 456 money-desperate individuals compete in various children’s games, based on those featured in the show, for a chance to win $4.56m – the biggest jackpot in TV history.

A week later, The Challenge was renewed for a second season.

Squid Game was not only a massive hit with viewers, but with the Television Academy’s voting body as well.

It became the first non-English language drama series not only to receive several nominations in major categories at the Emmy Awards, including Best Drama, but its star Lee Jung-jae became the first Korean actor to win the Best Actor award.

Hwang also became the first Asian director to win in the Outstanding Drama Series category and the first ever director to win for a non-English language series.

“It took 12 years to bring the first season of Squid Game to life last year,” Hwang wrote on X in 2022. “But it took 12 days for Squid Game to become the most popular Netflix series ever. As the writer, director, and producer of Squid Game, a huge shout out to fans around the world. Thank you for watching and loving our show.”
