Sunday Brunch guest almost misses show after boozy BRIT Awards celebrations
Selling Sunset star Bre Tiesi was due to appear on the Channel 4 show alongside former TOWIE star Megan McKenna, G'Wed actor Jake Kenny-Byrne, writer Liz Pichon, singer Antony Szmierek and Jon Ronson earlier today (March 2).
But she was visibly missing as it started, with her absence only being addressed more than half way through.
Tim Lovejoy interrupted the programme with a "breaking news" update to confirm the whereabouts of the reality star, the Mirror reports.

He told viewers: "Breaking news - Bre from Selling Sunset is in the car and she's at the hotel.
"For anyone that doesn't know, Bre was supposed to be on the show this morning but she went to the BRITs last night and so she is going to turn up when she turns up.
"But she's a friend of ours, so we don't mind
"We just hope she manages to make it at some stage."
Bre, who shares a son with comedian Nick Cannon, found fame on the Netflix series Selling Sunset in 2022.
She is one of the real estate agents working at the luxury Hollywood Hills brokerage, The Oppenheim Group.
Another guest did a disappearing act while the show was on air, with Tim forced to explain why X Factor star Megan had vanished from her seat.
He explained: "Sorry Megan has just had to step away to feed Landon [her baby son], which is why she's now missing."
Bre finally arrived in the studio at 12:30pm, telling the hosts: "I am not well, sorry guys."
She admitted she'd drank several tequila shots and got back to her hotel at 6am.
Sunday Brunch airs on Channel 4 on Sundays from 10am.

New Bonnie Blue documentary includes footage from her controversial sex stunt
It was the tabloid story of 2024 when OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue declared that she'd slept with over 1,000 people in 12 hours. Her stunt instigated a conversation around whether 26-year-old Blue, whose real name is Tia Billinger, was carving a new path for feminism or destroying the one that had been laid out for her. 1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story airs on Channel 4 on Tuesday 29 July at 10pm and will explore the life of Blue around the time of the stunt and in the months following. It also features behind the scenes footage from the infamous event. Press material says: 'This resulting documentary goes behind the headlines, clickbait and ragebait to discover what life's really like in Bonnie's wild orbit, how she got here and what's really going on behind those steely blue eyes. 'The film sensitively explores the central question polarising debate about her: Is she a 'dangerous predator', pandering to male fantasies and perpetuating the patriarchy? Or an empowered, sex positive, businesswoman having the last laugh?' Read more: Director Victoria Silver added: 'Bonnie Blue refuses to conform to public opinion and lives life by her own rules. At a time when factual TV is awash with retrospective stories, I wanted to capture the energy of a live and evolving story, with a woman at the heart of it who's living her life in such a bold way.' Channel 4's Commissioning Editor Tim Hancock said the documentary includes 'incredible access' to a story 'at the edges of modern morality' that will leave the audience 'questioning their own presumptions' about one of the UK's most polarising people. In June of this year, Blue announced she would be running a 'petting zoo' event with the aim of allowing 2,000 men to have sex with her. She hoped to be tied up in a glass box for the stunt, which reportedly had her banned from OnlyFans on the grounds of it violating their policy against 'extreme challenges.'

Biblioracle: Hannah Pittard's novel ‘If You Love It, Let It Kill You' lives on its own terms
There is a whole, real-world saga/story behind Hannah Pittard's deeply entertaining new novel, 'If You Love It, Let It Kill You.' In 2023, Pittard published 'We Are Too Many,' an unconventional memoir jumping off from the moment Pittard found out her husband was having an affair (and leaving her) to be with her closest friend. I named 'We Are Too Many' the best book of 2023. In 2024, Pittard's ex-husband, Andrew Ewell, published a novel, 'Set for Life,' about a creative writing professor married to another professor who has an affair with one of his wife's closest friends, and sees the affair as a way to escape his dead-end job and the shadow of his much more successful novelist wife. Enter 'If You Love It, Let It Kill You' in which 'Hanna,' a writer and creative writing professor now cohabitating with Bruce and his 11-year-old daughter in the college town where her mother, father and sister have all moved, ostensibly to be near each other, even though this nearness is not always a good thing. Hanna finds out that her ex-husband is publishing a novel about the dissolution of their marriage which sounds a lot like 'Set for Life.' I mean this in the clearest possible terms. Possessing this knowledge does not, in any way, enhance one's enjoyment of 'If You Love It, Let It Kill You.' This is a novel that lives on its own terms, independent of the real-life circumstances of its author, Hannah Pittard. It is funny, searching, anarchic and ultimately somewhat unexpectedly and satisfyingly open-hearted, given that one of Hanna's chief problems is coming to grips with the power of her own emotions. The novel is structured through a series of titled sections, the opening of which introduces us to Hanna and her domestic situation, Bruce (the boyfriend and co-owner of the house they live in), the 11-year-old, and Hanna's various family members. Hanna's father is, on the one hand, a hoot, a charming eccentric who drops by for drinks on the porch and is frequently the source of some laugh-out-loud punchlines. On the other hand, he's obviously unreliable and a depressive who threatens to drag those in his vicinity down with him. We also have Hanna's students in her creative writing course who occasionally serve as a kind of Greek chorus commenting on Hanna's life or challenging her Gen X views of the world. One chapter is structured as a dialogue between Hanna and the student collective that is wonderfully reminiscent of Donald Barthelme's classic short story, 'The School.' This deadpan wit and social commentary shine throughout Hanna's story. The publisher's material is calling this autofiction, but it's more like a deconstruction of autofiction. Another chapter is a scene between Hanna and an injured cat she has rescued from her garage and refused to return to the original owner who has been looking for it. Somehow an imaginary conversation with a wounded, yet very perceptive cat becomes a turning point in the story. Hanna, like all of us, carries some wounds. She does not trust herself very much, so it is very hard to trust others. Bruce could not be a steadier hand, and yet Hanna may sabotage this clearly good thing because, well … because she's human. She has very purposefully decided not to give birth to a child and yet finds herself something very much like a mother to the 11-year-old. As Hanna retreats to and returns from a writer's colony, the novel comes to a satisfying resolution, but we shouldn't mistake resolution with conclusion. There is no conclusion to life, except the obvious one that eventually comes for us all. John Warner is the author of books including 'More Than Words: How to Think About Writing in the Age of AI.'
