CHARLEY Uchea is a bride-to-be after becoming engaged just weeks after she was "left for dead." The Big Brother alum flashed her very bling diamond ring in a new Instagram video in which she confessed "I'm not where I'm used to be." 7 Big Brother star Charley Uchea has got engaged just weeks after being 'left for dead' in a car smash Credit: instagram/@ 7 The reality TV alum showcased her bling in a new Instagram video Credit: instagram/@ 7 It came just weeks after she was 'left for dead' in hospital Credit: instagram/charleyuchea_ 7 The Big Brother has kept her partner's name under wraps Credit: instagram/@ Charley, who shot to fame on the eight series of Big Brother in 2007, has battled a rough few weeks following a nasty car smash, which saw her left in hospital after her vehicle was hit by a truck. Now Charley, 40, has found fresh happiness with her man, 43, who she has been dating since late last year but has not named. In a clip uploaded to her main grid, the spy house contestant was seen admiring her new bling as she perched on a sofa in a grey robe. She flashed an adoring glance at her left hand as she held it up in front of her face. Charley then panned in for a close-up of the sparkling diamond before she added the caption: "A real man leads with love, protects with presence and builds with purpose." In her caption Charley, who stunned fans with her unrecognisable look last year, she continued in her caption: "Two things I know for sure — I'm not where I used to be, and God is still leading me somewhere greater." One fan then posted: "Congratulations beautiful God bless your union." A second posted: "Jheeeeeezzzeee love to see this Congratulations to you both." A third wrote: "So happy for you." One then added: "I know that's right … A REAL MAN GONNA STEP !!!EVERY TIME CONGRATS QUEEN." Big Brother star sparks concern as she's rushed to hospital after being 'left for dead' in car smash STRONG BOND During her time on Big Brother, Charley was known for her fiery temper. She often clashed with fellow housemate Chanelle Hayes, 36, and had a memorable 'fake' eviction. Charley was evicted on day 59 of Big Brother 8, placing her in 14th. Recently, the star stunned fans as she posed in a series of semi-sheer lingerie and showed off wads of cash. Alleging that she was her "own bank", Charley wrote: "F*** a bank lol. "I have my own bank." Earlier this year, Charley and her man went viral after she admitted he covered all her expenses - despite only being together for five months at the time. As the interviewer asked if their relationship was leading to marriage she said: "I hope it is, because I love him." He replied: "Yeah I am proposing to her soon, she changed my life. "Literally, the way she love me is way different to how any other woman has loved me. "It's not about money I'm a very successful seven figure entrepreneur. "So it aint about money or luxury, she loves me for me." He added: "I pay for everything, there aint no 50/50 in this relationship," before Charley insisted she paid for the "odd meal." HOSPITAL HORROR Just last month, Charley posted a clip showing her in hospital after her horror accident. She said: 'Look at the damage this truck did just by hitting me, then leaves me [for] dead on the side of the road.' Iconic housemate Charley looked to be in a lot of pain as she showed off some nasty bruises on her face. She added: 'Bless my nurse brushing my hair out, I can't really use my arms atm I'm so weak.' 7 Charley told how 'a real man leads with love' Credit: instagram/@ 7 Charley was a controversial character in Big Brother's 2007 series Credit: Alamy

Calvin Harris welcomes first child with wife and radio presenter Vick Hope
DJ Calvin Harris has welcomed his first child with his wife, Vick Hope, and described the radio presenter as a 'superhero'. The 41 year-old musician, best known for his hit songs One Kiss and Feel So Close, shared the news on social media that their son, Micah, was born on July 20. Harris posted a series of photographs on Instagram on Monday along with the caption: '20th of July our boy arrived. Micah is here!' He added: 'My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah.' Vick Hope and Calvin Harris at The Brit Awards 2024 (Ian West/PA) The comments section was flooded with congratulations from fans around the world as well as fellow musicians including Jade Thirlwall and Craig David. Some comments expressed surprise at the choice of photographs the DJ shared which included what appears to be the before and after shots of the placenta, the organ which forms in the womb during pregnancy, before it was steamed, dehydrated and ground into pills to be consumed. Consuming one's own placenta, known as placentophagia, remains a debated practice with some claiming it offers health benefits. Among the supporters was singer Becky Hill who posted in the comments: 'Love to see the placenta!! Amazing we grow a whole new organ to provide life! Good job not wasting it either, that's some goddess magic right there!' Celebrities who have reportedly eaten their own placenta include reality star and businesswoman Kim Kardashian, American singer and actress Mandy Moore, and Mad Men star January Jones. Hope, 35, is best known for presenting the BBC Radio 1 drivetime show Going Home. She reportedly married the Dumfries-born DJ in 2023. He is behind the hit number one songs Sweet Nothing, Summer, and Promises.

Love Island 2025 winners crowned during season 12 final
Toni Laites and Cacherel 'Cach' Mercer have been crowned the winners of ITV's Love Island 2025. The first American bombshell on the UK reality TV series and the professional dancer beat Shakira Khan, 22, from Burnley, and footballer Harry Cooksley, 30, who came second. Electrical engineer Jamie Rhodes, 26, came third with commercial banking executive Yasmin Pettet, 24, while Angel Swift, a 26-year-old aesthetics practitioner who entered the villa as a bombshell, came in fourth place with site engineer Ty Isherwood, 23. Host Maya Jama revealed the winning couple for season 12 of the reality dating show during Monday night's live final. After their names were called, Toni embraced Cach before she thanked the British public for voting for them. Prior to the reveal Toni confirmed that Cach told her he loved her the night before – and that she had said it back. Along with the 2025 title, the couple also took home a £50,000 cash prize. Earlier in the episode the Love Island couples exchanged emotional words to one another. Toni, who was visibly emotional when making her speech, told Cach: 'I don't think I tell you enough, but the way you treat me has made this whole wacky ass experience worth it. 'I think everyone has seen how happy you've made me, and I feel like a different person. I'm just really thankful to be here with you. 'I don't think anyone's ever treated me as good as you do so thank you. You make me feel like a queen.' Cach replied: 'I'm proud of you. You're gonna make me cry. You're so unapologetically yourself. It makes it so easy for you to operate the way I operate. 'I feel like our journey has been a roller coaster. I'm grateful for every moment. 'I don't think I could have done it with anybody else, to be honest with you, and I appreciate you.' Shakira told Harry that he was 'everything' she could want in a partner. She added: 'It's been an amazing last week and I'm excited for the future.' Harry replied and said: 'People say days are like weeks in here, but it really felt like I've known you a lifetime, and I'm so excited for the future, and I'll make so much time for you on the outside. 'My priorities have definitely shifted. You are my priority in life right now, so long may that continue.' Yasmin told Jamie that he became her 'sense of calm'. 'I don't tell you enough, but I'm so genuinely appreciative of you and everything you've done for me in here because my journey would be so, so shit without you,' she added. Jamie replied: 'Every day, I get a feeling of wanting to be around you more and more and knowing that this journey is coming to an end, that we won't be able to spend every second with each other, it's gonna make me really miss this place, but I know that on the outside world, we've got some great things coming.' Angel recalled having a 'spark' with Ty from the very beginning, adding that he is 'so thoughtful'. She said: 'I can't wait for outside life with you. I literally couldn't be happier.' Ty replied: 'I want to thank you and the Love Island gods for sending you in. 'I kind of didn't know where I was, and kind of lost myself a bit. I couldn't find my feet and I feel like you came at the perfect time.' Previous Love Island winners have included Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Davide Sanclimenti (Season 8), Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer (Season 4), Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies (Season 3), who have since split up. Couples who, despite not winning, remain together include Olivia Buckland and Alex Bowen (Season 2), Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury (Season 5) and Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack (Season 8).
