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.

This Morning favourite Trevor Sorbie has revealed he may not make it to Christmas, after declining further treatment for cancer.

The celebrity hairdresser, 76, has groomed stars including Dame Helen Mirren, Kylie Minogue, The Beatles’ stars George Harrison and Paul McCartney, Robbie Williams, Bryan Ferry, and Lorraine Kelly.

Last month, Sorbie revealed that he had been diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer, which has spread to his liver.

Despite being told that chemotherapy could give him an extra month of life, the hairdresser declined saying “I can’t face any more of that poison” in an interview with The Times.

He said he was told that he may have only weeks left to live.

“When I asked a nurse if I’d still be here at Christmas, she said, ‘We don’t know, Trevor’. And that annoyed me. I’ve got cancer in my body, but not in here,” he said. “My brain is my engine and I’ll go when I’m ready.”

However, despite not taking any further chemo treatment, he is still taking steroid injections to reduce pain and inflammation, which has given him “mad insomnia”.

“I’m a nervous person and quite sensitive and I worry,” he said, saying he is used to the lack of sleep. “I can’t do anything by halves. It’s 100 per cent or nothing.”

He also shared his experience of styling Naomi Campbell for Elle magazine.

“They wanted it pulled back in a ponytail,” he said. “When I moved on to the next model, she pulled the elastic band out and threw it on the floor.”

Describing the moment he got his diagnosis last month, Sorbie explained, “I lost a lot of blood one night and was unusually disturbed so went to hospital.

“They told me I had bowel cancer and I had a little panic attack. I looked at Carole [his wife] and she looked at me, we were both speechless and didn’t know what to say. So I went and had a big gin and tonic.”

Explaining the motivation behind his work, he said “I’ve cut wigs for women so far gone they can’t lift their heads. You have to radiate empathy … ‘I’m going to help you. I’m going to make you look good.’ I’ve tried my best all my life to make women feel good about themselves.”

The end is nigh for the Duttons. Yellowstone has become a culture-dominating, ratings smash hit since it first arrived on our screens back in June 2018, but now the final season is almost here.

The first half of the fifth and final season of the Taylor Sheridan-produced show about ranchers in Montana aired in November 2022, with the premiere episode bringing in a staggering 12.1 million viewers.

We already know that Dutton family patriarch, John Dutton III, played by Kevin Costner, won’t be present in the new episodes. But that doesn’t necessarily mean he won’t have an impact on proceedings. Here’s everything you need to know about Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2:

When does the new season of ‘Yellowstone’ come out?

Paramount have confirmed that the second part of Season 5 will premiere for viewers in the United States on Sunday, November 10 at 8pm ET/PT.

For international viewers, the show will premiere on Paramount+ in Canada on November 10 before arriving in the UK on November 11.

Why won’t Kevin Costner be in the final episodes of ‘Yellowstone’?

In February this year, Yellowstone was left shaken by reports that behind-the-scenes drama between Sheridan and Costner had led to the actor’s departure.

However, it wasn’t until June that Costner ruled out ever returning to Yellowstone, telling fans he couldn’t continue with the show.

In a video post shared to his Instagram, which he captioned, “An update for you guys. I’ll see you at the movies”, the actor, who had just released his own Western saga, Horizon, at the Cannes Film Festival, explained his decision.

“I want to reach out and let you know that after this long year and a half of working on Horizon and doing all the things that’s required, and thinking about Yellowstone, that beloved series that I love, that I know you love, I just realised that I’m not going to be able to continue Season 5B or into the future,” he said.

“It was something that really changed me. I loved it. And I know you loved it. And I just wanted to let you know that I won’t be returning and I love the relationship we’ve been able to develop and I’ll see you at the movies.”

What’s next for ‘Yellowstone’?

While Yellowstone will be coming to an end, Sheridan isn’t done with Montana. He recently announced that Michelle Pfeiffer is set to lead the forthcoming Yellowstone sequel series, The Madison. The new series will follow a family of New Yorkers who relocate to the Madison River valley in central Montana. It is set to deal with themes of grief and human connection.

A release date for The Madison has not yet been announced.

EASTENDERS fans can treat themselves to a slap-up Chinese meal and a performance from one of the soap’s legends – all for £15.

Cheryl Fergison, 59, is flogging tickets to the Cheryl’s Special £15 Weekend in a bid to make cash after failing to land acting gigs.

The price of a ticket includes a sweetcorn-based starter, a meat curry, sweet and sour rice or green peppers and black bean sauce.

Diners can also feast on rice, chips or noodle sides, all while enjoying a two-hour singing session from Cheryl.

Cheryl has taken to social media and shared a menu to the special event, which will run this weekend at Great Fortune House in Thornton Cleveleys.

One excited fan replied: “We’re coming, can’t wait! How do we book?”

Another added: “Don’t walk, RUN!”

And a third gushed: “Sounds stunning Cheryl!”

This is the third money-making scheme Cheryl – who played hapless Heather Trott in EastEnders – has come up with this month.

She has also been flogging her decade-old scripts to generate some cash, charging fans £50 a pop.

Fans of Minute Mart employee Heather also have to pay £5 postage if they want to buy one.

EastEnders fanatics can even snap up signed pictures from Cheryl’s time in Walford at a cost of £5 plus postage fees.

However, a TV insider warned: “Cheryl attempting to sell the script could see her in hot water with bosses at the Beeb and EastEnders as legally she may not own the copyright to the material.”

Cheryl’s scrabble to make money comes after she admitted she is desperate to land more acting work to pay the bills.

In an honest social media video, she said: “What I want to put out is the terrible misconception by the general public that we are all rich.

“That is far beyond the truth. I’ve been out of EastEnders for nearly 13 years, in fact more than that I left in 2012.

“I’ve done jobs in between and I’ve done panto, I’m doing it this year but the jobs are kind of like… they’re continuous, they’re not like being in a soap all the time.

“Unless you’re someone like George Clooney or an A-lister American star that gets millions for their films, it’s very difficult – in inverted commas – to be rich.”

EastEnders facts and figures

THE beloved British soap has been captivating audiences for decades.

EastEnders follows the lives of the residents of Walford as they navigate love, loss, family drama, and community struggles.

Here’s the latest on:

Cheryl – a mum-of-one – went on to explain that she has to ‘keep a roof over their heads’.

“Some people don’t understand that like everyone else we have bills to pay, rent to pay,” Cheryl added in the TikTok clip.

“We have to keep everything ticking and sometimes people, like myself, have to cover jobs.”

“People say, ‘Oh are you not acting anymore, you not doing it anymore’ and they fail to realise we still have to keep a roof over our heads and keep the bills being paid so we will do any job to kind of keep that going.”

Cheryl made her first appearance as Heather Trott in EastEnders in June 2007.

But the George Michael fanatic and Shirley’s best friend was brutally murdered by Ben Mitchell in April 2012.

Ben whacked Heather with a picture frame, which sent her falling to the ground and hitting her head on the kitchen counter.

The teen, who was played by Joshua Pascoe at the time, was later jailed for his crimes, despite dad Phil attempting to cover it up.

Longtime Republican strategist Kellyanne Conway has facetiously thanked The View hosts for inviting Kamala Harris on the talk show last month, suggesting that her appearance benefited Donald Trump’s re-election campaign.

Speaking on Fox News on Election Night, the former Trump advisor criticized Kamala Harris’s campaign, saying: “When the Democrats take a look at this candidacy, it’s not going to be that she had too much time, not enough time, she’s just a flawed candidate. She doesn’t speak well; she doesn’t work hard.

“I’m not being mean or partisan. I don’t know why the country would’ve rewarded this candidate with a big job when she couldn’t make the case for what she does as Vice President that affects our lives in a positive way. She was given the opportunity,” Conway, 57, said.

“I personally would like to thank the women of The View tonight for asking those questions, for having her on,” she said, adding: “Oprah, we see you,” referring to her previous sit-down interview with Harris.

“People thought they were doing her a favor because they made her something she’s not. It’s the opposite for Trump. They make him something he’s not – take that one word, take that one line, cherry-pick this,” she said.

Last month, Harris, 60, appeared on the ABC daytime talk show to answer questions from hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Alyssa Farah Griffin, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines and Ana Navarro about her campaign.

During the episode, she detailed how her presidency would differ from Joe Biden’s current presidency, and also reacted to Maya Rudolph’s spot-on impression of her on Saturday Night Live.

“She is so good,” Harris said of the actor. “She had the whole thing – the suit, the jewelry, everything!”

Harris’s time on The View came amid an influx in media appearances during the final month leading up to the election. She also sat down for interviews on 60 Minutes and the popular Call Her Daddy podcast.

Despite her attempt to sway voters into electing her as the first female president of the US, former president Donald Trump triumphed to become the first convicted felon to take office.

“I will fight for you, for your family and your future. Every single day I will be fighting for you with every breath in my body. I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve, and that you deserve,” Trump said after the race was called.

Pledging that his second term would “truly be the golden age of America,” he thanked the American people for the “extraordinary honor.”

In four short months, the president-elect will once again take the oath of office.

MAFS viewers have said they’re starting a petition to a ban a clothing item worn by bride Polly.

On Wednesday night’s episode of the show, Polly, 28, and Adam, 33, headed out on their final date together, and as they strolled outdoors, Polly could be seen wearing a pair of jeans with slits down each side.

The side slits revealed the bride’s legs, and it’s not the first time that Polly has been in this look.

But fans on social media were quick to share their thoughts on the jean design, with many fans saying they weren’t a fan.

One person penned: “I am fully aware that I have been wearing the same jeans for about 75 years, but I hope Polly has binned those awful jeans with the huge split seams.”

A second person added: “Those are some awful jeans – I don’t understand them?”

A third responded: “I think we need to start a petition to ban the flappy open jeans.”

Another MAFS fan wrote: “Polly please bin those jeans,” and someone else penned: “Polly can’t have actually wanted to pay money for those jeans.”

After the episode, another bride shared their support for the jeans and wore some for a photo shared to their social media.

Bride Lacey whacked on a pair of the open slit jeans and wrote to fans: “Girlys I got you!!! Had a few messages regarding my jeans!

“They have a split in them, they are so comfortable and I got so many compliments, link below!!”

Fashion to one side, Polly and Adam’s date didn’t go as planned as the pair ended up having a blazing row in the episode.

After the couple cheered to “us and to the future“, things quickly went south when the careers advisor told her ‘husband’ how she was really feeling.

She fumed: “I feel like you’re not giving me what I want..”

He shot back: “Rather than sit there and go, ‘I care about you…’ before she interjected, ‘That’s what you do.’

But the barber wasn’t having it, raging in tonight’s finale, ‘That’s not what I do!’”

He added in a piece to camera: “The old Polly is slowly creeping back.”

As the ending of the hit dating show nears, there are just four couples left in the experiment – Nathan and Lacey, Adam and Polly, Amy and Luke, and Sacha and Ross.

In Married At First Sight tradition, the couples will each face the final vows where they’ll decided whether or not to stay together.

And The Sun can exclusively reveal that during final vows next week, two couples will decide to stay together while two will split.

The Sun will keep the identities of which two couples break up a secret, so as to not to spoil the surprise for viewers.
