Chloe Ferry issues three-word comment on Kieran Trippier 'romance'
Geordie Shore's Chloe Ferry has opened up about speculation she was romantically linked to footballer Kieran Trippier following the breakdown of his marriage Chloe Ferry has addressed speculation that she was dating Kieran Tripper. The Geordie Shore star and Newcastle United star had been romantically linked after partying in Ibiza. It came following weeks of speculation about Trippier's marriage to his now ex-wife, Charlotte, which they have now confirmed has come to an end. The former couple had been holidaying separately but Charlotte recently instructed legal advice to help her navigate through a divorce. Last month, it was claimed that Chloe, 29, and Bury-born Kieran, 34, had grown close while both partying in Ibiza in May. Weeks prior to this, Kieran had been seen out on a night out getting close to a mystery blonde woman. A photo later emerged of Kieran placing his hand on Chloe's bum at the superclub, Ushuaia, with sources saying they were "having some fun." The source went on to add: "She's a gorgeous girl, so it's not surprising Kieran was spending time with her." But now, Chloe has set the record straight. We're just friends," she told the Daily Star. Now, it's claimed that Kieran is growing close to an OnlyFans star after he and his estranged wife confirmed their decision to separate. After being spotted out in Newcastle with a mystery woman, it emerged that the woman was Sienna Day. A source told The Sun:"After leaving the Wafi Lounge, Kieran was in another club with Sienna and they appeared close. She is well known on the scene in Newcastle and was with him in the club for just over an hour. They left not long before 3am. Kieran looked very taken with Sienna." Last month, Kieran's estranged wife broke her silence on the breakdown of their marriage, saying she was "fine" but wasn't in a position to talk in depth about their decision. In view of her 36,000 followers on Instagram, Charlotte said that she had been flooded with messages from women and "surprisingly guys" offering their support to her. She commented: "I just wanted to let everyone know that I am fine. Obviously, I am not ready to talk about my situation. "In time I will, when I am comfortable and the time is right, also I have three young children, haven't I, so I don't want to be putting things out there for them to see. But yeah, I just wanted to let everyone know it's not that bad, and you can get through it once you make the decision. "Like, you can get through it, the sparkle does come back, I feel like I am getting my glow back again, and yeah, like, you'll get there. So, anyone that needs any motivational speech or just some general chit chat, I'm all about mental health and stuff like that, I'm letting you know you will absolutely get through, any sort of break up or anything similar to what I'm going through." Her upload which was liked over 4,600 times was flooded with messages of support for Charlotte. Former The Only Way Is Essex sttar, Billi Mucklow gushed: "Keep sparkling beautiful." One Newcastle United fan penned: "I live in the North East and I'm a huge Newcastle fan, I love Trippier on the pitch and all he's done for the team, and if I'm being honest, I didn't want to believe what I was reading on social media about him. However, I wanted to say I've followed you for a while now and what a lovely, genuine person you seem to be. Always so happy and classy. You're so pretty, he's lost a good one there!" Charlotte replied to the fan: "Thanks so much! Tripps defo does great on the pitch and so happy for you Geordies that you are doing so well! Much love to the Geordies."

Gemma Atkinson shares heartbreaking message one year on from devastating loss
Gemma Atkinson has shared a poignant yet uplifting message as she commemorated one year since the painful farewell of her dogs. Followers of Gemma on social media will know how heartbroken she was by the loss of her beloved dogs, Norman and Ollie, who both passed away within six months of each other last year. Announcing Norman's passing last summer, just days before her daughter Mia's fifth birthday, Gemma expressed: "My beautiful boy Norman has passed away." READ MORE - The Queen's steadfast 'antisocial' breakfast habit she refused to change READ MORE - BBC viewers gobsmacked by a bold moment in JADE's Glastonbury performance She added, "My heart is broken," and posted an emotional video with snapshots and footage of him throughout the years with her and Ollie, as well as fiancé Gorka Marquez and their two children, Mia and one year old Thiago. Then, on December 10, Gemma, aged 40, revealed that Ollie had joined Norman, leaving her shattered. In a video filled with memories over the years featuring Ollie and Norman, the Bury-born actress shared with her two million followers: "Sleep well beautiful Ollie..", reports the Manchester Evening News. She continued, "The sadness of losing you both so close together is a lot, but I know you're both somewhere running free in long grass or on a beach chasing the tide carefree, pain-free and happy. That's what I'm taking comfort in right now. I'll remember you for the rest of my life. Norman and Ollie. My two best boys. Reunited." It was this Saturday (June 28) that Gemma took a moment to look back on the 12 months since Norman's death. She turned to Instagram with a touching video that captured the cherished moments she spent with Norman. In an emotional post shared with her 2.1 million followers, she wrote: "A year since we said goodbye to Norman... It's passed by so quickly. "I still get a lot of DMs from people who've recently lost their companion asking how I coped and in all honesty I still a year on have the odd day where it hits me out of nowhere and I miss both Norman and Ollie SO much. I see a man most days walking with a spaniel the spitting image of Ollie and I always smile to myself. "Until you've experienced pet loss it's hard to explain how hard it is. To some they are "just a dog" or "just a pet" and I guess in a way that's what makes us owners so lucky. We know they are so much more than that, because we've experienced the unconditional love and loyalty. "The no judgment regardless of our situation. Those morning stretches and longing looks from them knowing you're their human, and you are the most important loved person every single day of their life. It's the most wonderful feeling you can imagine. I count myself lucky that from age 2 I've had that joy. In Fergie, Norman, Ollie and now Benji." Benji is the new goldendoodle puppy that Gemma and her fiance Gorka Marquez welcomed into their lives last month. She continued: "I know Norm and Ollie played a part in sending him to us. Even from another realm they knew we needed him. Especially Mia. She was struggling and they helped her heal. Benji has helped her heal. "So to those who ask me about losing a pet, I say the pain never truly fades, but I believe it's because they take a small piece of our heart with them - a little memento reminding us that we're their human, and just as we remember and talk about them, they do the same about us." This emotional post sparked an outpouring of love and support. @life_with_hope2023 commented: "Tears are rolling... your words, so true, so beautiful, so poignant. Rest in paradise to all of our soul dogs." @66northgirl replied: "Thank you for that post. Only 6 weeks into the pain of losing my 'furbaby' and still so incredibly raw. Sending love and thoughts to your family." @lucymaygoodwin said: "Never 'just a dog', 'just a cat', 'just a pet'. They are all part of our family and leave a paw print on our hearts for life. Sending you lots of love today." @wrightiesan10 wrote: "What an amazing video. So beautiful. Hope Norman is having the best time at rainbow bridge." @tracyfrostlewis posted: "Oh boy. So beautifully written and so very true. Tears here. Thank you." @tracy. grayson added: "Oh Gemma. This got me. So well take a bit of our hearts."
