Speaking to Extra.ie earlier this year Rosanna said the family hoped to be moved in by July saying : 'We haven't moved house yet. But we're aiming to be in for the first week of July, ' she told us. 'We're hopefully on track. At the moment, it's been a really, really intense process.'
As the couple prepare for the next exciting chapter, Rosanna also told Extra that Wesley has been a total champ as he surrendered his mancave so his three children, Sophia, Hugo and Oscar, could have their very own playroom.
Nope, there's no mancave in this house,' laughed Rosanna, before adding: 'However, we have a shared office and a home cinema for Wesley to watch football matches with my dad.'
And even with her hectic schedule of work, children and studying for a Master's Degree, Rosanna says she has taken the lead on the new build. Pic: Rosanna Davison/Instagram
'I think what surprised me, though, about building our own house has just been how time-consuming it is. It's pretty much a full-time job for me at the moment. Pic: Rosanna Davison/Instagram
'Wesley is really busy running the business, so he can't be as hands-on as me. So after I drop the kids to school, nearly every day, I'm up at the house for a site meeting. I'm going to showrooms.'

Conor McGregor caught up in nude pic scandal after Azealia Banks leak

American rapper Azealia Banks has leaked unsolicited pictures of Conor McGregor as she accuses the MMA fighter of threatening her. The former UFC champion sent her nudes, which she proceeded to post on the platform publicly. She further accused him of threatening her not to tell anybody. Leaking McGregor's pics, she wrote on X: 'How you gonna send a b**ch a some crooked d**k pics then threaten her not to tell. @TheNotoriousMMA n**ga do you know who the f**k I am?' She further mocked the MMA fighter and wrote: 'Honey…… ain't u trying to be the president of Ireland what is it giving fam?" She further shared another screenshot where she claimed that McGregor woke up early and deleted his pictures from her chat. However, she revealed the threat part in the chat, in which McGregor said: 'Don't be a rat cos all rats get caught.' In another tweet, she once again mocked the Dubliner's announcement to run for Irish presidency, sharing, 'Conor McGregor 4 President'. A spokesman for McGregor has been contacted for comment. Banks' post against McGregor also coincides with the UFC lightweight champion's 37th birthday, which saw tributes from his fiancée and mother of four, Dee Devlin. It comes as pictures were obtained of the controversial star cosying up to a mystery woman on the beach in Florida in front of a crowd. The ex-UFC champ was caught on camera getting up close and personal with a bikini-clad lady on a Fort Lauderdale beach over the weekend. In the images seen by the Irish Mirror, McGregor put his hand on her thigh, had his arm slung over her shoulder, and seemingly planted a kiss on her lips. His fiancée, Devlin, posted on social media for the first time since the photos surfaced. But she made no mention of them in her upload, instead celebrating McGregor's 37th birthday on Monday. She reposted a tribute from a fan page on her Instagram story that said: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile." The post included a montage of the couple in their joyous moments. The pair have been an item for 16 years, got engaged in 2020, and have four kids together – sons Conor Jr, eight, Rian, four, Mack, one, and their daughter Croia, six. Their partnership has weathered its fair share of storms, notably McGregor's civil rape case. Last November, a High Court civil jury found him civilly liable for assaulting Nikita Hand. He faced allegations of "brutally raping and battering" Ms Hand at a hotel in south Dublin back in November 2018. McGregor maintained that their sexual interactions at the Beacon Hotel were consensual. The jury sided with her, with €248,603.60 in damages awarded. McGregor has mounted an appeal against the ruling that got underway earlier this month. Once again standing united with McGregor as they exited the High Court last year, Devlin later expressed her unwavering support on social media: "My man and I have created a beautiful life together. I love him, I trust him and I BELIEVE HIM!"Our four beautiful children whose smiling faces and happy hearts are testimony to the man he is and who we are! No one is entitled to comment on our relationship - we trust one another and love one another. Nothing or nobody will change that. Our family stands strong!" McGregor has now been absent from the UFC for over four years. His last fight, a second successive defeat to Dustin Poirier in July 2021, saw him break his leg. He has teased fans with talks of a comeback several times since, yet his anticipated June 2024 clash with Michael Chandler was scrapped and wasn't rescheduled.

What Chris Hughes & JoJo Siwa are REALLY like behind the scenes – my day with them was eye-opening

IN my 20 years as a journalist I've been asked about Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa more than any other celebrity couple. It feels like everywhere I go people want to know 'Is it fake?' 'Are they legit?' 'What are they like?'... Well, let me tell you. Advertisement 9 Kelly Allen interviewed Chris Hughes for his first ever Fabulous Magazine cover Credit: Mark Hayman - Fabulous 9 Chris and JoJo are the real deal, says Kelly Credit: Chris Hughes / Instagram 9 The couple met on Celebrity Big Brother in April and fell head over heels for one another Credit: ITV 9 JoJo opened up about the criticism they've received from trolls as a couple Credit: Getty I can say unequivocally that they are 100 per cent the real deal. Advertisement Two weeks ago I got to see them together in person as we met I've known Chris since 2017 when he came out of Love Island and over the years I've hung out with him at events with various partners including this smitten before. Organising photoshoots with celebrities' busy schedules is always a struggle but with Chris we weren't just trying to fit it in around his work which included attending Royal Ascot in his role as racing commentator and Coral Ambassador but also balancing his transatlantic dating schedule. He's frequently hopping on planes now to the States to see his girlfriend. And when Advertisement Thankfully he was way too professional to cancel so there was much excitement in the office when his team asked 'would it be ok for him to bring JoJo along with him?' It's been the most The last time I saw Chris was at Cheltenham Races in March and we talked candidly about him going into the house and what he should expect. I warned him it was very different to the Love Island villa and that he needed to keep his cool as it's designed to be a pressure cooker. Neither of us would have expected that he would go in there and fall for JoJo - who he calls Joelle and she refers to him as 'My sweet Christopher'. Advertisement JoJo Siwa says she'll NEVER break up with Chris Hughes saying their relationship is 'earthquake proof' He told me: 'Everything that happened on CBB, and everything that has happened since. . . I know it's such a clichéd thing to say, but I would never have believed it in a million years.' And he's not the only one but when I arrived at the studio in East London I witnessed first hand They were sitting on the floor facing each other with their legs interlocked, holding hands chatting. Both jumped up when they saw me and Chris proudly introduced me to his girlfriend. The first thing that struck me about JoJo is how pretty she is in real life. She was dressed casually in long baggy denim shorts with a £465 Off White black knitted jumper with her hair half up half down. Her skin is absolutely flawless and she beamed her whiter than white smile at me. She had such a warm friendly energy that I was instantly drawn to her. Advertisement The interview was scheduled at the start of the day and we went to a nearby coffee shop without JoJo jokingly telling her: 'We can't talk about you if you are there.' 9 Chris described meeting JoJo as 'a magical feeling', above Kelly with the star couple 'Magical feeling' Chris was incredibly candid during the hour long chat about future together. Describing meeting her as 'a magical feeling', he frequently mentioned destiny and the universe bringing them together. He told me: 'I've never been fixated on the universe but there are so many weird signs that the universe has given me in the last two months. Advertisement "I genuinely believe that everything that has happened was meant to happen. 'We keep using that word serendipity and that's what this is. Life handed me a blessing in my lap without it ever crossing my mind. "Something truly beautiful while I was focusing on something so unrelated. "I can never hate the universe if it decides to give me a few bad breaks in the future, I'll say 'okay fair enough' because once upon a time, it gave me her. That happiness is enough for my lifetime.' I think of myself as quite a tough journalist - I can count on my hand how many times I've cried during an interview and I had tears in my eyes as he told me how he feared he would never find anyone who would love him and he worried that there was something wrong with him. Advertisement I couldn't help but smile as he gushed about how happy he was now that they were together. He showed me countless videos of them together - some of them both in tears as they said emotional goodbyes at the airport. I've never been fixated on the universe but there are so many weird signs that the universe has given me in the last two months Chris Hughes I had no doubt that this lad was And the feelings from the dancer were clearly mutual. Following the interview JoJo joked at how 'wild' British journalists are adding 'They just ask whatever they want. They will just say 'Are you gonna get married?' Advertisement I laughed: 'Oh I asked Chris that.' She was intrigued though and wanted to know his answer. She also showed me a picture of a sentimental gift she had bought him - I'll not ruin the surprise by sharing what it was. I've had a difficult time over the past few years - again it's not something I really talk about in a professional environment. But I felt so comfortable with JoJo that I shared what my life away from work had been like. As I got emotional, she hugged me. She spoke to me with such compassion, kindness not to mention maturity that I could understand why Chris (and his entire group of family and friends) have fallen in love with her.

We talked about how much she liked being in the UK and her plans to spend more time here. Advertisement She's obsessed with drinking tea and despite being a multi millionaire happily tucked into a lunch of Pret sandwiches and salads as well snacking on sweets including Love Hearts and Drumsticks. She lamented that she wasn't able to stay long enough to get to go to Wimbledon but revealed that Chris was taking her to the The shoot had a rugged theme with Chris posing topless and JoJo was a total cheerleader going 'Babe, you look so hot!' as she snapped on her phone pictures and videos behind the scenes. She admitted: 'He will definitely want to look back on these later.' In between each outfit change they cuddled and kissed and it was clear they couldn't keep their hands off each other. Advertisement We can just lie with each other and be in each other's company. That to us when it feels like there is no one else in the world except us is pure happiness Chris Hughes Later she expressed concern that he was going to actually shave his beard off when he posed with a razor for one of the shots. We also had him hanging off some thick chains covered in oil , in order to get his 'pump' on he dropped to the floor and started doing press ups. It was really impressive. JoJo and I both locked eyes with each other and she quipped proudly: 'That's my boyfriend.' While we got the last of the photographs, JoJo made TikToks in the corner of the studio. One she later posted was captioned: 'lil fit check while I was being a professional girlfriend on set for the day.' Advertisement And a total professional she was. She posed for photos with the team - even doing a birthday message for the photographer's daughter's birthday before it was time to go. While most celebrities are usually rushing off to an event or red carpet Chris shrugged at the suggestion saying they were just going home. He had told me earlier: "A lot of my happiness comes from sitting on my sofa. I don't go out much. I'm not really a partier. I don't drink. I like watching TV with a cup of TV. "And thank god that's so reciprocated from her side. So we can just lie with each other and be in each other's company. Advertisement "That to us when it feels like there is no one else in the world except us is pure happiness.' And so it was time to leave with a taxi arriving to whip Chris and JoJo back to his home in Windsor and back to their own version of happiness. 9 The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other on set of the Fab Mag shoot, above a picture they posted online Credit: Snapchat 9 Chris with ex partner Olivia Atwood on Love Island in 2017 Credit: Rex Features

Jeremy Clarkson left fuming and slams the ‘fun police' as his very pricey new advert is BANNED from TV and radio

JEREMY Clarkson has slammed the 'fun police' after his big-budget beer advert was BANNED from TV and radio. Keen to spread the word about Diddly Squat Farm's Hawkstone Lager, Sun columnist Jeremy hired a 34-strong choir of real British farmers to sing their own version of a classic opera tune. Advertisement 3 Jeremy Clarkson with his Diddly Squat right-hand man Kaleb Cooper 3 British farmers sing in a choir, with Jeremy Clarkson pictured centre sipping a beer Hilariously, the farmers switched up the words to sing: "F*** me it's good". It then ends with Jeremy, 55, taking a sip of his pint while standing in the middle of the choir and says directly to the camera: "Hawkstone. It is f***ing good." The advert, which Clarkson describes as 'the best thing I've ever made, apart from a shepherd's pie in 1988,' was intended to be a powerful celebration of British farming, the backbone of his best-selling lager and cider brand, Hawkstone. And yet, it may never be seen - because it's "not compliant" with broadcasting regulations. Advertisement READ MORE ON JEREMY CLARKSON 'It's a cock-up, as usual,' said Clarkson from his Diddly Squat Farm. 'I've made my biggest, most heartfelt, and frankly, most expensive advert ever, and it's been banned. "The fun police in their beige offices have decided that the public can't be trusted to watch it. "It's been kicked off the telly, silenced on the radio, and barred from the cinema. Advertisement Most read in News TV "Apparently, it's 'not compliant'. With what, I have no idea. Common sense?' Frustrated by the blockade, Clarkson is now turning to the British press. 'If the regulators won't let the people see it, then perhaps the newspapers will. "I'm asking every editor in the country: will you publish my banned ad?' Who Wants to Be A Millionaire host Jeremy launched Hawkstone in 2021, offering a range of premium British lagers, ciders and vodka. Advertisement The beer was originally made from the barley grown at Diddly Squat Farm. It has since become the fastest growing beer brand in the UK - and the most followed beer in the world on Instagram. 3 The TV host is having none of it
