Brian McFadden smiles in wedding photos as he marries for third time
Former Westlife singer Brian McFadden has married his long-term partner, Danielle Parkinson, in a beautiful beachside ceremony. The 45-year-old gave fans a glimpse of their special day by sharing a carousel of photos on Instagram, featuring himself, his new wife and their daughter, Ruby Jean.
The newlyweds beamed with joy as they posed in beautiful matching white outfits. They exchanged their vows in a stunning beachside ceremony, prompting fans to flood social media wishing the couple congratulations.
One fan commented on Brain's post: "So happy for you both – here's to laughter, love, and a forever kind of harmony," while another stated: "Awh congratulations to you both absolutely beautiful wishing you many happy years together."
A third wrote: "Congratulations to you both, you all look wonderful. Hope your day was perfect," while a fourth penned: "Huge congratulations to you both. wishing you both all the love & happiness possible."
The star met Danielle Parkinson back in 2016 and asked her to marry him three years later in 2019, the Mirror reports. According to reports the couple wanted to get married sooner but the pandemic caused them to postpone their wedding.
The couple had experienced two heartbreaking miscarriages before welcoming their daughter in 2021. Brian also shares two daughters with his ex-wife Kerry Katona - Molly Marie, 23 and Lilly-Sue, 21.
While Kerry and Brian broke up over two decades ago, Kerry previously gave an insight into their relationship stating she 'gets on well' with Brian's new partner.
The Sun stated, Kerry previously said: "I get on really well with his fiancée. I think I might have a girl crush on her. I always go off of what my girls say for a stepmum, and she's the best stepmum."
She continued: "On Mother's Day, I sent her a message. I went, Happy Mother's Day, Danielle. I think she's lovely and they've got a beautiful little girl, Ruby. I wish them nothing but joy and happiness."
Before marrying Danielle, Brian previously wed Irish model and TV personality Vogue Williams. The couple tied the knot in a glamorous ceremony in Florence back in 2012, captivating the attention of fans with their high-profile romance. However, after three years together, they separated in 2015 and officially finalised their divorce in 2017.
Shortly after, Vogue met Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews while filming Channel 4's celebrity competition, The Jump, in early 2017. Their friendship quickly blossomed and they got engaged in January 2018, marrying just six months later in June.
While Brian moved on with Danielle, a former heptathlete turned PE teacher, and the pair have been together since 2016. The couple were introduced by mutual friends Cole Paige, their connection grew quickly and now they appear more in love than ever.
By December 2019, after three years together, Brian proposed to Danielle calling her his "soulmate." Danielle, whom Brian has praised as the "best mother, friend, partner, teammate and soul‑mate", often shares glimpses of their joyful home life with her followers online, from family skiing trips in the French Alps to Disneyland Paris.
The couple has been open about their journey to parenthood, including their experience with IVF. Danielle described the process as "gruelling but worth every second."
In May 2021, Danielle gave birth to their daughter, Ruby Jean, via emergency c-section. Ruby Jean's arrival marked a turning point in their lives with Brian calling the first time he held his newborn "the greatest moment of my life."

Gregg Wallace sacked as MasterChef presenter, says BBC News
The 60-year-old had stepped away from hosting the BBC cooking competition last year after a number of historical complaints came to light. There have been fresh claims about the TV presenter from 50 more people to the corporation including allegations he groped one MasterChef worker and pulled his trousers down in front of another, BBC News said. A university student has claimed he reached under her skirt and pinched her bottom in a nightclub, and a junior worker alleged he dropped his trousers in front of her while he was not wearing any underwear. Production firm Banijay previously said Wallace is 'committed to fully co-operating' with the external review while his lawyers have previously strongly denied 'he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature', according to BBC News. Some of the more recent claims include a MasterChef worker who said she tried to complain about comments she alleged he made about her body in 2022, and a former policeman who said he tried to raise concerns after he allegedly witnessed Wallace making inappropriate sexual comments at a charity event in 2023. BBC News reported the majority of the 50 people had said he made inappropriate sexual comments, with 11 women accusing him of inappropriate sexual behaviour, such as groping and touching. BBC News also said it has not seen the final Banijay report but it is understood the presenter has been sacked. Earlier on Tuesday, the former greengrocer claimed he had been cleared of the 'most serious and sensational accusations' against him ahead of the report examining his alleged misconduct. In a statement posted on his Instagram account, he said: 'I will not go quietly. I will not be cancelled for convenience. I was tried by media and hung out to dry well before the facts were established. 'The full story of this incredible injustice must be told and it is very much a matter of public interest.' He also said he recognises that some of his humour and language was inappropriate 'at times' and apologised for this. Wallace started out as a greengrocer before he shot to fame fronting BBC shows including Inside The Factory, Supermarket Secrets, as well as MasterChef, Celebrity MasterChef and MasterChef: The Professionals. The most recent series of MasterChef: The Professionals continued to air last year amid allegations against Wallace, but two MasterChef celebrity Christmas specials were pulled from the BBC's schedule in December 2024. At the time, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said she would look to impose new standards in the creative industry amid the allegations. A BBC spokesperson said: 'Banijay UK instructed the law firm Lewis Silkin to run an investigation into allegations against Gregg Wallace. 'We are not going to comment until the investigation is complete and the findings are published.' Banijay UK declined to comment on Wallace's comments.

'Love Island USA' star Yulissa Escobar reacts to Cierra Ortega's sudden departure
Former 'Love Island USA' contestant Yulissa Escobar is addressing Cierra Ortega's departure from the show, calling for compassion over cyberbullying . In a TikTok video posted July 7, Escobar, 27, drew parallels between her experience and Ortega's abrupt removal from the villa in Episode 30. Both left 'Love Island USA' after posts containing racial slurs resurfaced. A spokesperson for Peacock declined to comment to (Peacock is owned by NBCUniversal, TODAY and NBC News' parent company.) 'I know what she did was wrong but we need to stop fighting hate with hate,' Escobar said in the video. 'The cyberbullying has gone to another level.' Following her removal from the show in June after Episode 2, Escobar issued an apology. In her recent video, the former Islander acknowledged that both she and Ortega made mistakes and didn't minimize the harm caused by their words. 'I'm not justifying what I did, I know what I did and what I said was wrong, and I know what Cierra said was wrong and I know it hurt communities,' she said. Escobar emphasized that while she doesn't condone the language used, the online harassment both women have faced crosses a line. 'When I was in that hotel room in Fiji and I was looking at those messages I was getting, I was honestly scared to come home,' Escobar said. 'I was like, is something going to happen to me? Is someone going to do something to me? Because it was just a lot to take in, and even my family was worried.' Now, she's worried about Ortega facing similar threats. 'Instead of sending such disgusting messages to her and her family ... try to educate us,' Escobar said. 'Her, me, I said something in the past that was wrong, she did too, like try to educate people so we can grow as a community.' Escobar expressed particular concern for Ortega's mental health, noting that she doesn't know if the former Islander is 'OK' and saying she wished she could check on her well-being. 'I'm speaking up for everybody in that island, I'm speaking up for Cierra, not because I don't know what she did was wrong … but I just feel for her mental health and I'm scared, I'm worried for her,' she said. Escobar concluded her video with a message of unity. 'We need to stick together, we can't continue this division we need to unite and teach people. That's how we're going to grow as a community, and we have younger generations that are watching this show and we're not teaching them to be better,' she said. The 'Love Island USA' finale is set to air on July 13, with the recent controversies casting a shadow on the season's conclusion. Ortega has not publicly addressed her departure. Her parents issued a statement posted to her Instagram story, both acknowledging Ortega's actions and asking for an end to 'threats' and 'cruel messages.' 'As Cierra's parents, this has been one of the most painful weeks of our lives,' the post began. 'We're not here to justify or ignore what's surfaced. We understand people are upset, and we know accountability matters. But what's happening online right now has gone far beyond that.' The post said Ortega will 'face this with honesty, growth and grace' when she returns from Fiji, where the show is filmed. 'While she'll always be our little girl, she's also a woman, one who will take responsibility in her own time and her own voice,' the post read.

Coco Austin's latest 'micro thong' snaps leave fans stunned in her wildest post yet
On Tuesday, Nicole 'Coco' Austin stunned her captive, combined 14.4M social media following by sharing gratuitous snaps of her famously curvaceous 'booty' which had been specifically 'requested' by fans. The 46-year-old buxom model left very little to the imagination posing in her star-spangled micro-thong bikini on the Fourth of July while poolside in what might have been Arizona as she had stopped by the spa AZ Body Bar in Gilbert on June 27. 'We asked for the back,' Instagram user @gilramz commented with excited emojis. 'We got the back.' Instagram user @peril_la_tigre jokingly wrote: 'The [1999 Sisqó] song says, "let me see your thong" - yours plain disappeared!' 'That booty has to be deemed one of the wonders of the world at this point,' Instagram user @d_bo_fresh marveled. 'Love ya @coco!' And Instagram user @ang6007 wanted a Kylie Jenner-style breakdown of Coco's secret: 'Seriously what are you doing? Fat transfers? No way your booty is getting bigger over 45. Mine has grown in gym and I know fat transfers help too. Keep it real sis.' Back in 2012, Austin appeared on the sydnicated talk show The Doctors where plastic surgeon Dr. Andrew Ordon performed an ultrasound to scan for butt implants, and he quickly declared: 'Coco's buttocks are 100% real.' However, in nineties-era modeling snaps the Tarzana-born, Albuquerque-raised bombshell Instastoried on Tuesday, her derrière appeared much smaller and more natural. Coco has clearly undergone the same suspicious hip and rear-boosting tactics as celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner.
