'My last album was so different, it was about my love life and getting married.

Wimbledon 2025: Absolutely Everything We Know About Jannik Sinner's Love Life
After two weeks of intense tennis (and the obligatory celeb spotting, of course), Wimbledon has come to an end, with Jannik Skinner being crowned the men's champion. In a tense match, Sinner triumphed over Carlos Alcaraz, becoming the first Italian to win the singles titles at Wimbledon. The victory was extra sweet for Sinner, who previously lost to Alcaraz in the French Open final. The trophy was presented by Kate Middleton, and Sinner also got the chance to speak to Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Speaking about a conversation he had with the young royals, Sinner said: 'I asked the kids if they play tennis and asked them what kind of rackets they play, these kind of things.' With Sinner in the headlines, there's lots of interest in this personal life - especially who he is dating. On Google, search for 'Jannik Sinner girlfriend' is up by 1,000%. In a press conference in May, Sinner shut down any rumours that he was in a relationship. 'There's a lot of attention,' he said. 'Also, off the court, I was surprised to see some pictures, which, nothing serious. I'm not in a relationship!' However, some recent reports have linked Sinner to model Laila Hasanovic. Laila is an influencer from Denmark, and she has over 350,000 followers on Instagram. She has recently been spotted at some of Sinner's matches, including at Wimbledon. Previously, Laila dated Michael Schumacher's son, Mick, for around three years. The couple reportedly separated earlier this year, although Laila clearly made an impact on him - Hasanovic was reportedly among the few people who were allowed to visit Michael. Of course, the reports of a budding romance between Sinner and Hasanovic are all just speculation at this stage, and neither party has confirmed this is the case. Yes! Jannik used to date Anna Kalinskaya, who is a Russian tennis player. They went public with their relationship in May 2024, but confirmed their split a year later. According to Sinner said last year: 'Yes, I'm with Anna, but we keep everything very confidential,' adding ' I won't say more.' Anna is a talented tennis player. As of July, 2025, she is ranked 39th on the WTA website. She has had success in three double titles on the WTA Tour and one single title on the WTA Challenger Tour, and gave an incredible performance at the 2024 Australian Open, where she reached the quarter finals. She also finished as a runner-up at the 2024 Berlin Ladies Open. With them both being tennis stars, it's no surprise that Jannik and Anna first crossed paths on the tennis circuit. When they were together, they regularly stepped out to support each other at their matches, and were spotted training together during a practice session ahead of Wimbledon 2024. Jannik confirmed he was single in May 2025, while speaking at a press conference during the Italian Open, although he didn't give a reason why their relationship came to an end.

Love Island: Emma and Harry's Past Relationship Explained
Love Island 2025 is well and truly underway - and as with every year, it's certainly brought the drama. 'Meg, not Mug,' Shakira and Helena's feud, and of course, a healthy dose of your ex turning up in the villa. Following Casa Amor, a total of 12 couples were left in the Love Island villa - including new couple Emma Munro and Conor Phillips. Of course, Conor isn't Emma's only link to the villa. Upon her arrival, viewers discovered that Emma is actually Harry Cooksley's ex-girlfriend. Yes; the same ex-girlfriend he said he was in love with and has tattooed on him. So far, everyone has had their eye on Harry - including OG's Shakira Khan and Helena Ford, as well as Casa girl Rheo Parnell. As for Harry, he's had his eye on, well, everyone. With the ex's reunited, it initially seemed they were very much bringing their bad blood to Mallorca. Emma revealed that Harry had cheated on her with another woman, before the semi-professional footballer later jibed, 'It's a long way to come to throw dirt on my name.' However, the tide has since changed. Now, it seems Emma and Harry might be rekindling their complicated romance. After asking Harry to sniff her armpits during one recent clip (hey, whatever floats your boat), Emma was heard saying, 'I don't think anyone has any gauge on how deep our relationship actually was.' 'We're so comfortable,' she added, with Harry replying, 'dangerously.' Whether these two rekindle their clearly complex romance, only time will tell - but in the meantime, here's everything to know about Harry and Emma's relationship timeline. If there's one thing we do know, it's that hydrogeologist Emma and semi-pro footballer Harry, both 30, dated for around three to four years. In a since deleted post, Emma shared a selfie of her and Harry cosying up in matching 'H' and 'E' baseball caps. They met in 2021 and things were serious. They met the family, lived together and Harry seemingly got 'E' tattooed on his wrist for Emma. Emma's sister commented 'Cool guy' on a picture of Harry holidaying in Egypt back in 2023. While the couple haven't removed all traces of each other on their socials, they no longer follow each other on Instagram. Alas, all good things must come to an end, with the couple splitting in 2024. Harry explained ont he show that he'd been single for about a year, but after Emma's arrival she notably referenced a letter he sent her in January this year telling her he'd always be there for her. Emma was quick to reveal the cause of her split with Harry during her time on Casa Amor. In conversation with her ex, she mentioned that he broke her trust by bringing girls back to their shared home after a night out. Given that Harry has been open about cheating on Emma a week into their relationship, it's no surprise the incident led the pair to breaking point. 'Harry and I had been together for four years, but unfortunately we broke up because he was misbehaving,' Emma explained, later saying to Harry 'The fact of the matter is you've brought girls into our home, and I wouldn't do that to you, because that was the rules, and you think the rules don't apply to you. It's my house, Harry. You think as soon as there's a boundary in place, cross it.' Of course, there's nothing like Love Island to rekindle a past love. Despite their clearly messy end, Harry and Emma reunited during season 12 of Casa Amor. While they did share a kiss during Raunchy Races, the ex's didn't seem keen on rekindling anything in Casa. Emma coupled up with Conor to re-enter the villa, with Harry sticking with Helena (despite growing very close with Rheo.) During the re-coupling, Harry's treatment of Rheo was something Emma wasn't afraid to bring up - saying her ex didn't like being 'exposed' for who he really is. Fast-forward to now, and they're having flirty chats and smelling armpits. Who said love doesn't exist? When Emma entered, fans were initially thrilled to see someone finally putting the footballer back in his place. 'I think I'm going to like Emma, if only because of the look of disgust she makes every time Harry opens his mouth. It's about time someone humbles him,' wrote one on X (formerly Twitter). 'The producers said let's ruin this man's experience and sent in his biggest op. I fear I already have to stan,' laughed another. Following their flirty chats, fans now have a different view. 'I need Emma to remember she's only here to make Harry look bad,' wrote one viewer, adding, 'Don't go off script, sweetie!' 'No way Emma is trying to get back with Harry after slagging him off the whole time for being a bad boyfriend,' added another. It's some lore we're more than invested in - and with a few more weeks of villa action left, there could be plenty more of Emma and Harry to see.

Tobi Bakare's real reason for Death in Paradise exit as he makes surprise return
Tobi Bakare's real reason for Death in Paradise exit as he makes surprise return Death in Paradise fans will be pleased to see a familiar face back on their screens as Tobi Bakare makes a return to the long-running BBC series Death in Paradise fans were thrilled when the programme returned to BBC for a fresh series, showcasing familiar faces alongside newcomer DI Mervin Wilson (played by Don Gilet). Nevertheless, there's a recognisable character returning to Saint Marie after leaving in 2021. Tobi Bakare, who played JP Hooper on the enduring BBC drama for seven years, chose to depart the series. Viewers of the popular BBC show saw the beloved character leave after Commissioner Selwyn Patterson (Don Warrington) presented him with an opportunity elsewhere. Taking up the new role, JP moved his family and departed at the end of series 10. The actor revealed he sensed his stint on the programme was coming to an end three years before his character bid farewell to Saint Marie. Speaking to Radio Times, he explained that this realisation struck him during filming for series seven whilst in a church. Tobi Bakare's Death in Paradise exit explained as he makes return to BBC series (Image: BBC ) Article continues below He said "The preacher mentioned seven years in a message. As soon as he mentioned seven years, I don't know what happened. It just clicked. 'It was like a moment of realisation. I had three more years left. It was three more years until it would be seven years, but it just hit me so hard. At this time, my wife was in the UK, and I told her that I know when it's going to be time for me to leave the show. "But I wanted her to go away, pray about it, and think about it. She'd done so, and called me up the next day, and said, '2020'. So the exact time of the seven years. So we were like, 'Yeah, that's the time.' That's the actual reason.' Although Tobi revealed to co-star Tahj Miles, who portrays Officer Marlon Pryce, their on-screen partnership almost made him reconsider his decision to leave. He admitted: "You were the one that created the conflict in between me leaving because we found the flow.' JP Hooper returns to Saint Marie Tahj's character was introduced in season 10, and despite some initial clashes with JP, their friendship ultimately found resolution. However, it remains to be seen how their dynamic will play out upon JP's return. Fans were ecstatic about the news, as announced on Death in Paradise's official Instagram, with comments pouring in. One enthusiastic viewer exclaimed: "So nice to see Tobi back, loved his character," while another shared: "I miss you JP!' Article continues below A fan posted: "OMG I hope we get JP for more than one episode!! " with someone else commenting: "Hope JP is back to stay! " Another wrote: "Yayyy! Would LOVE to have JP back for several episodes," and another fan simply enthused: "Ahhhh JP is back!" Seasons one to 14 of Death in Paradise are available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
