Peter Crouch joked he "doesn't know why he is with" wife Abbey Clancy after she started doing one thing in their bedroom.
Model Abbey, 39, has taken to going to bed before her husband to catch up on her favourite TV shows. Recently, Abbeysays she has been watching Married at First Sight.
In order to get a better view of the television, Abbey has been borrowing 44-year-old Peter's orthopedic pillow. Speaking during the weekly whine segment on the couple's The Therapy Crouch podcast, Abbey said: "You keep getting p***** off at me on your orthopedic pillow."
Peter, the former England and Liverpool striker, explained that his chiropractor recommended the dipped pillow, which he said has "really helped" him. He commented on the situation saying: "She's all over the orthopedic pillow. It helps with my posture and stuff and helps me have a good night's sleep."
Abbey described her new bedtime routine: "I get into bed first and it's a bit firmer so I'm a bit more upright in this pillow so it's perfect. My face is in the perfect position for MAFS."

With a touch of humour, Abbey added while mimicking an upright position: "I'm like that with me cup of tea and Creme Egg. 'Peter, can you just run down and put a little boiling water in that cup of tea, it's freezing'."
Peter shared his discomfort, joking that he felt like he was "doing crunches" trying to watch TV without his pillow, leading to his playful remark: "I don't actually know why I'm with you.
"It's dawned on me now. It's really actually dawned on me. You're belittling my wins, even if it's a small win, you should celebrate that as my wife.
"Number two, you take the p*** out of my orthopedic pillow and number three, you steal it. It's unbelievable."

Peter had previously quipped that his new pillow - along with a change in medication for his allergies - led Abbey to fear he was dead after he stopped snoring. He said: "I've got some new medicine for my polyps, it's really helping my allergies and everything, and I've ended up not snoring. And I've got a new pillow from the chiropractor because I've had a bad neck.
"I went to see a chiropractor, gave me this new pillow, and they gave me this dipped pillow. I've got this new pillow and I wasn't snoring the other night and I was fast asleep."
Abbey asked: "How do you know?" To which her husband replied: "I'll tell you how I know, because you elbowed me for not snoring.
"She elbowed me in the middle of the night, she probably won't even remember, about 3am. She thought I was dead.

"I said, 'What the hell did you do that for? You said, 'You weren't making a sound."
Peter joked he "couldn't win". He added: "If I'm snoring, I'm keeping you awake and I'm a pain in the a***. If I'm not snoring, you're worrying I'm dead."

MAFS 2026: Expert John Aiken warns new brides are ready to unleash drama - as season 12 kicks off filming: 'They'll hold everyone to account'
Married At First Sight expert John Aiken has promised the upcoming 2026 season will be one of the most dramatic in the show's history. Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail, John, 55, teased that filming is already delivering fiery scenes and will feature a line-up of powerful, outspoken brides who will 'hold everyone to account' and are not afraid to stir the pot. 'I would say what we've got is a cast full of very powerful, opinionated, outspoken women who are really going to hold everyone in the experiment to account,' he said. 'Particularly the women - you're going to need to look out for them this year, and not just how they are with their partners, but particularly how they work in the sisterhood.' The veteran relationship expert, who has been with the hit social experiment since its debut, said there's a freshness in this year's line-up. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. According to Aiken, producers have assembled a diverse group, including a cricket-obsessed sports presenter, two grooms from diverse cultural backgrounds, and a number of participants bringing what he describes as a 'heavy TikTok flavour' to their dating approach. 'That's what we try and do every year, we evolve the show. We don't try and completely break it and bring it back to zero. We just give the audience something that's a little bit different from the season before.' While MAFS continues to dominate the ratings year after year, the series has never managed to score a win at the TV WEEK Logie Awards —something Aiken is quick to brush off. 'We don't do it to get a Logie. We do it because it's fun, it's exciting, and a lot of people watch it,' he said. 'At the end of the day, we're very happy with the numbers we get every year—that's the real prize.' He believes the lack of Logies love comes down to voting habits. 'It all comes down to who's prepared to vote. Often the shows that win have the people that are prepared to get online and vote. With MAFS, while we have a lot of people watching and committed to it, they don't vote,' he said. Over the years, many MAFS participants have been left off the Logies guest list—a point of frustration for some—but Aiken insists it's out of his hands. 'I would say what we've got is a cast full of very powerful, opinionated, outspoken women who are really going to hold everyone in the experiment to account,' he said 'It's a privilege to be invited, but it's completely out of my hands and out of the hands of the talent. Every year there's a possibility people will miss out,' he said. And even if the show did win, he's not sure letting a bride or groom take the stage would be a wise move. 'You'd have no idea what they're going to say,' he laughed. 'That's the thing about the MAFS cast—they're very brave and put themselves out there, but you never know what they'll do once filming wraps.' Despite the chaos, Aiken remains proud of the show's ability to create real connections. 'The real pleasure is that Rhi and Jeff are still together and going strong. It just shows that this experiment can work and people do get the fairytale,' he said. As for what fans can expect from him this year, Aiken promises more of his signature no-nonsense approach at the dinner parties. 'My role's very clear now—I call out bad behaviour and hold people to account. I've become more direct and blunt with my feedback because the behaviour is becoming more extreme,' he said. 'We don't do it to get a Logie, we do it because it's fun, it's exciting and a lot of people watch it. The real prize is the huge audience engagement we get every year,' Aiken explained of the MAFS Logies snub His advice to this year's participants is simple: stay curious. 'Come in with an open mind rather than a long list of deal breakers. This is a marathon, not a sprint. 'You've got to give it the full 10 weeks, because people do fall in love—sometimes when they least expect it.' With production already underway in Sydney, Aiken said viewers are in for a treat when the explosive thirteenth season premieres next year. 'It's going to be big, it's going to be unpredictable—and you never know what they're going to say,' he said. Married At First Sight returns to Channel Nine in 2026.

Legendary six-time Grammy Award-winning musician dies aged 86
Steve Charnock Published August 1, 2025 1:52pm Updated August 1, 2025 1:52pm Link is copied Comments Flaco Jiménez, the iconic American-Mexican accordionist whose music helped define and push Tejano, Tex-Mex and conjunto styles, has died aged 86. His family confirmed his death on Facebook yesterday evening, writing: 'He was surrounded by his loved ones and will be missed immensely… His legacy will live on through his music and all of his fans. The family requests privacy during this time of sadness' (Picture: Gary Miller/FilmMagic) Born Leonardo Jiménez in San Antonio, Texas, in 1939, 'Flaco' (a nickname meaning 'skinny' that both he and his father shared) was raised in an incredibly musical household. His father, Santiago Jiménez Sr., was a key figure in conjunto music - which has its roots in the Texas-Mexico border region. His grandfather Patricio was also a prominent musician. Flaco joined his dad's band by seven, first playing the bajo sexto before switching to the accordion, which would become his signature instrument (Picture: Michel Linssen/Redferns) Heavily influenced by his father and zydeco legend Clifton Chenier, Jiménez - who would go on to win six Grammys, including the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2015 - soon made his name beyond Tejano circles. He became the go-to accordionist for musical stars across the genres, adding his distinctive sound to a wide range of recordings and albums. His solo work and collaborations made him something of an international ambassador for Mexican-American music. It was a role he warmly and enthusiastically embraced (Picture: Rick Diamond/WireImage) Doug Sahm was one of the first rock musicians to spotlight Jiménez, featuring him on a 1971 solo album of his. That break led to sessions with Ry Cooder, Bob Dylan, Dr. John, Los Lobos and David Lindley. Cooder featured Jiménez on his 1976 album Chicken Skin Music, which would lead to an appearance on Saturday Night Live later that year (Picture:for Americana Music) Flaco's solo career thrived alongside his session work. He won his first Grammy in 1986 for Ay Te Dejo en San Antonio. His accordion work was also featured on the 1988 country hit Streets of Bakersfield alongside Dwight Yoakam and Buck Owens, earning him a spot on a No. 1 country single. The three of them would perform together a number of times, to the delight of their fans (Picture: Redferns) In 1989, he co-founded the Texas Tornados with Sahm, Freddy Fender and Augie Meyers. Their hit 'Soy de San Luis,' written by Flaco's father, won them a Grammy. A year earlier, he won another Grammy with the supergroup Los Super Seven. He later joined the Free Mexican Airforce with bluegrass player Peter Rowan (Picture: Frazer Harrison/WireImage) Even in the 1990s and beyond, Jiménez's appeal endured. He played on the Rolling Stones album Voodoo Lounge in 1994 and continued releasing music on his own and with others. In 2024, he received the Founder of the Sound award at the Ameripolitan Awards in Austin, a tribute to his lifelong impact (Picture:) From San Antonio to stages all around the world, Flaco Jiménez was proud to showcase the music of his culture. His name may have meant 'skinny,' but he was a giant of Mexican-American music. One who'll be missed by both those who loved him and those that loved his sound (Picture: Redferns) Next Gallery
