Noel Edmonds to marry for the FIFTH time as he pops the question to his wife in a hot tub

And for the first time he will be putting his new life in the spotlight in the ITV1 show, Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure.
This could well include showing his fifth wedding to wife Liz Davies, after he popped the question yet again.
And the Deal or No Deal star, 76, is keen to get married again in their new Kiwi home.
He told the Mirror of the proposal: 'We've been married a lot. We got married in a civil ceremony in the Cotswolds, then we went to our home in France and an Anglican minister who I knew very well came over and he was going to bless us and he did the whole thing again.
'So this became a bit of a joke with our friends. Oh yeah, we were filming on a cruise ship and the captain married us again.
'We've done four. But we want a Kiwi one. And there's a compelling reason why we should get married again, in New Zealand. We own a chapel. So why wouldn't we?'
After two previous marriages he wed Liz Davies in 2009 after three years together.
The couple met in 2006 when she was a stand-in make-up artist on his show, Deal or No Deal.
Speaking at his wedding about how they met, Noel said: "To start with it was all very professional, but there was a look in both our eyes."
They were married in a civil ceremony in the drawing room of Lower Slaughter Manor, a 17th century country house in the Cotswolds.
Noel continued: 'I have a chapel. I acquired a chapel with the farm and as you can see, it is in desperate need of restoration. It's a fly and wasp cemetery.
'But my project, starting early next year, is to restore it completely and then Liz and I will get married for the fifth time.'
It comes as the quirky host insisted that his new ITV1 show is nothing like Clarkson's Farm — because he's not as funny as the former Top Gear star.
Noel exclusively told The Sun: 'When we were filming our show, some people who knew about Clarkson's Farm said to me, 'Oh, is it like Clarkson's Farm?'
'And I said, 'No, it couldn't be more different.' First of all, I'm not like Jeremy in many ways, though I wish I were.
"He's brilliant. He can articulate an argument beautifully and deliver a sharp, humorous line like no one else.'
Noel, 76, went on to crack a joke about his years in the showbiz wilderness.
His last big gig was on I'm A Celebrity in 2018, when he was voted out after only nine days.
Noel laughed: 'People still ask, 'Noel Edmonds? Didn't he die? Is he still around?'
'Yes, I'm still here — and living life to the full.'

Glamorous footy presenter lifts the lid on the 'devastating' effect of being 'silently shut out' by TV giants
Footy reporter Tiffany Salmond has claimed her 'silent shut-out' by television bosses has been 'devastating', as she addressed questions about why she has disappeared from TV screens over the past six months. The Kiwi NRL presenter, who has previously worked as a freelancer for Fox Sports, RNZ and Sky, last week explained to her Instagram followers that she believed TV chiefs have overlooked her because they felt she was 'too bold' and 'disruptive'. Recently, Salmond has worked as a touchline correspondent, covering NRL games for the New Zealand Warriors. But after being asked by many fans where she had gone this season, she revealed she did not choose to leave footy media, but was instead 'sidelined', and claimed she has not been given a reason why. On Tuesday, Salmond addressed more questions about why she has been absent from TV screens. 'The truth is there was no incident. No mistake. No warning - just dropped and erased,' Salmond wrote. She followed up on comments she shared in an Instagram video last week on her X account, explaining that she felt she has been snubbed from TV roles, 'without reason' 'I wasn't let go because I failed. I was cut off while thriving, connecting, performing and being embraced by the audience.' Salmond had previously expressed her thanks to her fans, revealing she had received a lot of heartfelt messages, both asking why she was no longer on their screens while also sending her messages of support. 'There was nothing to fix, no feedback to apply, no bridge to mend. 'And yes, people lose jobs every day but this was not that. This was not a restructure. Not a performance issue. Not a scandal or a clash behind the scenes. 'It was a silent shut-out and it's been devastating. Professionally, because I loved what I did. Personally, because I was never given a reason. 'And while the speculation and gossip has been exhausting, the truth is simple: I was dismissed quietly. Without respect and without reason.' The comments section on the post was filled with messages of support, with one writing: 'Keep your chin up mate, one door closes so another one opens.' 'You'll bounce back,' another wrote. 'Sorry that happened to you. Your commentary was amazing.' She added that the experience has been 'incredibly isolating' Salmond also took to Instagram to write: 'I know I've always shown up smiling. I've kept it light, positive and intentionally composed. But the truth is, carrying all of this alone - without protection or support - has been one of the hardest, most devastating chapters of my life. 'It's been deeply painful. Incredibly isolating, and every day has been a quiet battle to not let it break me.' She added: 'What makes this particularly painful is knowing I didn't just "lose a job" or miss out because I wasn't good enough. 'It's knowing I was right for it. I had it. The connection, the performance, the audience support. 'That clarity is what's made the silence feel so cruel and misaligned. The pain isn't about ego, it's about injustice.' In 2024, Salmond had found herself at the centre of a high-profile media couple's split. Fox Sports presenter Jake Duke was dumped by Seven reporter Grace Fitzgibbon after he reportedly received an unexpected call from Salmond early one morning in February last year. Salmond is understood to have told friends that she did not know Duke was in a relationship with Fitzgibbon at the time. Daily Mail Australia revealed that Fitzgibbon had been left 'devastated and heartbroken' after Duke, her boyfriend of three years, had reportedly received calls from Salmond. She later moved out of Duke's apartment in Sydney's northern beaches, following an argument with the Fox Sports presenter. Salmond had also blasted online criminals in May after they created a deepfake AI video using a picture of her wearing a bikini. Last week, Salmond had explained she believed television chiefs had opted not to 'evolve and make space for someone like her' because of her personality. 'It's been nearly a year since I was last on air,' she said in a video published on her Instagram account, which has over 41,000 followers. 'And I keep thinking surely the noise will die down and that you will all forget and will all move on. That's how I knew with certainty that something was deeply, deeply wrong here. I know I don't fit the traditional demand of what a TV presenter is supposed to be here but I think that's the whole point? 'Isn't that why so many of you have been demanding my return? Because you could see something real in me, you could feel the authenticity through the screen. 'I'm not any of those cliches, I'm all of it. And that's confronting to a system that thrives on predictability and control. 'So instead of evolving and instead of making space for someone like me they would rather remove the destruction altogether. 'Because if someone like me can show up fully as herself and thrive, then the whole system has to shift. 'I have proved that you can break the mold. That you can show up differently and be rewarded for it. While that's exciting for a visionary - to the gatekeepers, it's terrifying.'

Mel B's mother Andrea Brown snubs Geri Halliwell's mum in wedding post fueling speculation that Spice Girls' 'feud' has crossed generations
Mel B 's mother Andrea Brown has sparked speculation that the Spice Girls ' alleged feud is spanning the generations as she shared a post from her daughter's wedding. Scary Spice, 50, tied the knot with her partner Rory McPhee at St Paul's Cathedral in London on Saturday and celebrated with an A-list reception at The Shard afterwards. Emma Bunton was the only Spice Girl in attendance, though Victoria Beckham and Mel C both shared gushing tributes to their bandmate as they sadly missed the day. However, Geri Halliwell notably remained silent on her Instagram as she failed to publicly acknowledge the nuptials, amid claims of tension between her and Mel B. Now, Mel B's mother Andrea - known as 'Andy' - has fuelled rumours of a feud as she took to her own Instagram page to share a photograph of the 'Spice Mums' at the wedding reception. She flashed a smile as she posed with Victoria Beckham's mother Jackie Adams and Mel C's mother Joan Chisholm - who attended despite her own daughter's absence. The glamorous trio looked closer than ever as they posed at the wedding reception, with Andy gushing over how much they had 'missed' Emma's mother Pauline Bunton in a caption. She penned: '30yrs of friendship spice mums my partners in crime miss u sooo much Pauline.' Pauline then replied in the comments: 'Miss you too Andy.' However, there was notably no mention made of Geri's mother Ana María Hidalgo in the caption, as she and her daughter seemingly missed Mel B's wedding. One fan noticed the apparent snub and took to the comments to ask: 'What happened with Ana Maria?' Ana María - who is from Huesca, Spain - tends to keep out of the spotlight and it is not known if she lives in the UK or the reason for her absence from the wedding. Andy, Jackie, Joan and Pauline were often together at the height of the Spice Girls fame, while Ana María remained out of the spotlight in comparison. Ana María has made public appearances with Geri over the years, but snaps from the 90s seem to show she was absent from pictures with the other Spice Girls' mothers on occasion. Elsewhere on Tuesday, Emma's mother Pauline also took to her Instagram Stories to share a sweet throwback with Mel B and Andy. The photograph, taken in 1997, showed the foursome posing with Alan Cumming while Mel C was also visible - though Geri and Victoria were both not. She captioned the snap: 'Celebrating Andy's birthday in Spice World The Movie.' Just weeks before the wedding, Andy had also shared a video of her daughter Mel B with her Spice Girls bandmates Emma, 49, and Mel C, 51, dancing together. The footage was taken at Mel B's 50th birthday celebrations, where Geri and Victoria, 51, were noticeably absent. MailOnline has contacted Geri's representatives for comment. Mel B's representatives declined to comment. Ginger Spice Geri, 52, has notably been absent from Mel B's birthday and wedding celebrations in recent weeks and failed to mention the occasions on social media. While she remained silent on the wedding, Posh shared a sweet black and white throwback of herself and the bride with bandmates Geri, Mel C and Emma. She captioned the snap: 'Congratulations @officalmelb @rorymcphee on your special day! I couldn't be more excited for you both and wish you a lifetime of happiness! kisses xx' Hours earlier, Victoria had also posted another tribute to the couple on Friday with a photograph of herself and Mel looking glamorous together at a recent event. She gushed in a caption: 'Sending love to you @officialmelb! @rorymcphee is a very lucky man! xx' Meanwhile, Mel C shared a photograph of the newlyweds on Saturday evening and admitted she was 'gutted' not to be there. She gushed in a caption: 'So so happy for you both and beyond gutted I couldn't be there. Excited to celebrate with you really soon! Yippee!' Ahead of the wedding, sources told the Mail that there was no bad blood between Victoria and Mel but was simply a scheduling conflict. They said: 'Victoria has long standing plans out of the country and she simply can't be there. 'She adores Mel, they get on really well despite their paths going in opposite directions. It's a real shame. Geri and Mel B revealed that she had an intimate relationship with Geri when the band was starting out while she was being interviewed for Piers Morgan's Life Stories programme 'There is no issue between them, they haven't fallen out. It's just one of those things.' As for Geri, she and Mel have a tempestuous relationship and at times have struggled to be in the same room without there being animosity. The two women went to war after Mel B revealed that she had an intimate relationship with Geri when the band was starting out while she was being interviewed for Piers Morgan's Life Stories programme. Geri was said to have been deeply upset by the bombshell revelation in 2019, for which Mel has apparently never apologised. Sources also say that Geri's husband Christian Horner was 'mortified' about Mel's claims. Mel walked down the aisle for the third time in front of her celebrity friends on Saturday afternoon as she finally became Mrs McPhee. She looked every inch the blushing bride in a pearl-adorned white gown as she married Rory during the stunning ceremony. Celebrities in attendance include TV presenters Gaby Roslin and Angellica Bell, comedians Katherine Ryan and Alan Carr. Leigh Francis, Cara Delevingne as well as the Spice Girls' former manager Simon Fueller were pictured at the ceremony. Mel was able to get married at St Paul's Cathedral because of her OBE, which she got in 2022 for her services to charitable causes and vulnerable women, especially Woman's Aid. It is the third time that Mel said 'I do' after first marrying Dutch backing dancer Jimmy Gulzar in 1998, who she shares her daughter Phoenix, 26, with. After their split in 2000, Mel went on to welcome her second child Angel, 18 - who is a transgender man - with Eddie Murphy. She wed Stephen Belafonte in 2007, first eloping to Las Vegas before holding a vow renewal in Egypt the following year. The couple share a daughter Madison, 13, and separated in 2016 after a bitter split.

Lauren Sanchez's younger sister shares inside look at lavish Jeff Bezos wedding in unseen photos
's younger half-sister Elena Blair has shared never-before-seen photos from Lauren's lavish nuptials to billionaire mogul Jeff Bezos. In one of the beautiful black-and-white images, Sanchez is seen beaming in her bridal dress as a guest hugs her from behind. In the second photo, Sanchez buries her face in her hands as she giggles while seated at an elaborately decorated table at the reception. Elena, who is a professional photographer, shared the images to her Instagram page on Sunday. 'This is what I will remember… our family so full of love and joy,' she captioned the post. 'Love you both so much, @laurensanchezbezos @jeffbezos,' she added, complete with a heart emoji. Sanchez herself also commented on the post, writing, 'I'm the luckiest girl in the world to have you as my best friend.' She added, 'I also love how we get to witness each other's lives. I love you.' Elena is Sánchez's younger half-sister, sharing the same father, Ray Sánchez. Former journalist Sanchez, 55, and Amazon tycoon Bezos, 61, hosted an extravagant, multi-day event in Venice, Italy, just a few weeks ago, surrounded by over 200 friends and family, including A-listers like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner and Ivanka Trump. The former couple made their reception debut to a live performance of Ellie Goulding singing Your Song. Goulding wasn't the only performance that night in Venice, either - Matteo Bocelli, who is the son of legend Andrea Bocelli, also sang at the Sanchez-Bezos ceremony. Sánchez wore a high-neck, long sleeve lace Dolce & Gabbana gown that took over 900 hours of atelier to make, per Vogue. The gown featured a flared skirt, long veil, and a tight-fitting waist, with tons of buttons going up the middle. 'Very Lauren. Sexy, happy, not too serious, not too drama. Elegant but at the same time sensual,' Domenico Dolce told the outlet about the bride's dress. In addition to the reception, Bezos and Sánchez hosted a number of other lavish events, like a welcome dinner and pajama-themed brunch party the following day. They also kicked things off with a foam party on Bezos' $500 million yacht, Koru, early in the week. The couple also showed their guests with gifts, the Daily Mail learned from a source in Italy. Each guest received hand-blown glassware by local glassmaker Laguna B, which features features bright colors, stripes, and floral details. All of the glasses have different motifs and designs, with one large-size cup running customers $167.
