Georgia Toffolo declares jelly shoes ‘well and truly back' with £20 red M&S pair
Jelly shoes are the latest of the 00s trends to make a comeback, and Georgia Toffolo has found the perfect red pair from Marks and Spencer for her Maldives holiday Although the resurgence of the 00s trends has been slowly creeping back in for a while now, it seems it has truly hit its peak recently with the return of the jelly shoes. As soon as luxury brands started sending their own versions down the runway, it became official – they're the shoe of the summer. And in case you needed any more convincing, former Made in Chelsea star Georgia Toffolo has also been spotted wearing a pair during her trip to the Maldives, where she shared a photo declaring: 'Jelly shoes are well and truly back and I'm here for it.' She also shared where to shop her exact pair, with her Jelly Slip On Ballet Pumps being a surprisingly affordable £19.50 pick from Marks & Spencer. The jelly shoes are the perfect pick for summer, with the mesh design making them breathable and comfortable to wear, as well as meaning you can wear them on the beach without them filling up with sand. The plastic material also means they should be perfectly fine to wear in the water, so you can paddle in the sea or pop them on around the pool without worrying about them getting ruined. Toff's Jelly Slip On Ballet Pumps also have the classic ballet flat style that makes them easy to wear with a whole host of different outfits. The flat heel also keeps them comfortable enough to be worn all day long. Pair them with jeans and a T-shirt for days in the city, or throw them on with your bikini and a sarong (just like Toff) for an afternoon at the beach. You could also pair them with a flowy maxi skirt or a linen co-ord for more casual evenings out. The M&S Jelly Slip On Ballet Pumps are already selling quickly, with only sizes five, six and seven currently in stock in the red colour. You can however still nab the silvery grey colourway in all sizes from a three to an eight. If you do want a red pair but have missed out on your size with the M&S pair, you could pick up the Juju Jellies Kris In Red from Schuh instead, which are currently on sale down from £26 to £17.99. Alternatively, nab yourself the £29.99 Jelly Mesh Ballet Flats from Amazon which have been compared favourably to The Row's designer version by reviewers. However the Marks & Spencer Jelly Slip On Ballet Pumps have also been getting plenty of positive reviews of their own, with one saying: 'Perfect for summer, nice colour, son comfortable and fit well.' Another agreed: 'These jelly shoes are really comfortable. I bought the transparent ones and my granddaughter thinks they are glass slippers! I have popped them on to do the school run .. visit a Nursery.. and have dashed into town. I'm so glad I came across them on the website and am happy to recommend them.' Some had some minor issues, adding: 'Perfect for the beach. Very comfortable. Wouldn't want to wear them for a lot of walking around as they would make your feet sweat. Feel very light but not much support.' Others however couldn't wait to wear them on holiday, writing: 'Just what I wanted for the beach and pool side. Very comfortable and light. Flexible will go in back pack luggage easily.'

Strictly Come Dancing target star with major Royal links
Two posh celebrities being eyed up for the next series of hit BBC show Well-heeled celebrities Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo and Tom Parker Bowles are being lined up for the next series of Strictly. Insiders say I'm a Celebrity winner Georgia, who rose to fame on reality series Made In Chelsea, is in talks to join the BBC contest. The Tory-supporting pal of Nigel Farage recently wed millionaire beer boss James Watt, founder of BrewDog. Sources say the Beeb are also after another name from the ranks of high society in Tom Parker Bowles – the eldest son of Queen Camilla. Food writer and restaurant critic Tom, 50, is a regular judge on MasterChef. A Strictly source said: 'Georgia is in talks to join – she would bring glamour, poise and fun to the show. She's been a huge hit on all the telly shows she's done and would be a popular contestant on Strictly. 'Top of their wishlist is MasterChef star Tom. His name was also sounded-out last year but never materialised. Bosses hope they'll have better luck this year. 'It would be a coup to sign someone with such a strong royal link. Maybe we could see Camilla and Charles in the audience?' Toff, 30, and entrepreneur James, 42 – whose estimated worth is £250million – met in 2023 on a blind date arranged by friends. James popped the question last year on holiday in Greece and they married in March. Toff, who won I'm A Celebrity in 2017, had opted for a low-key ceremony in the coastal village of Gardenstown, Aberdeenshire. They spent the morning at James's grandparents' rural home, enjoying jam on toast with cups of tea in the kitchen before heading in a rental van to the local church. After exchanging vows, they celebrated on a fishing boat in tribute to James's fisherman dad. Asked once if she was only with the BrewDog founder for the money, Toff said: 'Going off the state of our joint bank account, on balance I would say probably not' – posting a picture of their joint account with nothing in it. Meanwhile Eton-educated Tom may not be Toff by name – but as the Queen's son he is very much toff by nature and would bring the show a strong upper-class touch. He cites his mother's cooking and recipes as his inspiration, and recently described Camilla – married to King Charles for 20 years – as a 'great mum'. The Queen once joked that she wanted to star in Strictly herself, as it's one of her favourite shows. The 77-year-old is said to have told the Sun's royal photographer Arthur Edwards that she would be up for the dancing experience. Strictly returns in September. Comedian Chris McCausland, 47, made history on the last series when he became the first blind person to lift the glitterball.

Georgia Toffolo reveals real reason she hasn't taken Brewdog millionaire husband's surname
Georgia Toffolo has revealed why she opted against taking Brewdog millionaire husband James Watt's surname after the pair tied the knot in Scotland earlier this year Georgia Toffolo has confessed why she didn't take husband James Watt's surname after their whirlwind wedding. The former Made In Chelsea star stunned her followers after revealing she tied the knot with the Brewdog co-founder - giving guests just 48 hours notice. And she has been opening up in a candid Q&A session with her Instagram followers this week. When one user asked the star known as Toff why she didn't take her husband's surname in the ceremony, she admitted she had been in "two minds". However, she revealed she feels as though her own surname plays a big part in her "identity". She was asked on the platform if she had taken Watt as her surname. The former I'm A Celebrity star responded: "I love that someone's asked this question. So, to answer directly no I haven't, but I wonder whether my feelings on that might change as the time goes on. I don't know." She continued: "I'm sort of in two minds about the whole thing. I think my surname is such a big part of my identity, it literally is my name, as most people know me." However, she admitted any future kids the pair may have will take on their dad's surname. Toff then admitted it might be "a bit weird" if she has a different name to her offspring. The answer came after the reality TV star also shot down claims she is a gold digger. She shared a screenshot of the duo's current bank account balance, which read £0. She went on to say: "Going off the state of our joint bank account, on balance I would say probably not," when asked if she was only with him for the money. Toff then asked what others think after tagging her hubby in her response. Toff also answered a fan on what age she met her new husband. "I was 28 and he would have been 40," she explained. "I think that's a banging age gap but I would say that. But I think we've hit the real sweet spot between the two of us." The pair switch locations now they are married, with either London or Scotland playing home. Toff revealed her morning routine differs depending on her location when a fan asked. Speaking of her English routine, she said: "The usual London morning routine when the children [James' kids] aren't with us: Wake up. James does some Wimhoff breathing, which makes me laugh because he sounds like a horse, and I just lie there and look out the window. "Then I get straight up, take Montdog out for a walk before it gets really busy in Central London."

Georgia Toffolo shares exact amount in joint bank account with Scots millionaire hubby James Watt
Georgia Toffolo has revealed the surprising amount inside her shared bank account with Scots millionaire husband James Watt. The former I'm A Celebrity winner, 30, has previously faced criticism for marrying the BrewDog founder earlier this year with trolls branding her as a 'gold digger'. However, in a fresh Q&A session on Instagram this afternoon, the Made In Chelsea star has finally silenced her critics after she responded to one person's question who asked: "Are you with James for his money?" Dressed in a small black crop top, the reality TV star decided to reply to the queries in front of the camera. And it seems she had finally had enough of the negative comments. Replying to the comment, she said: "Going off the state of our joint bank account, on balance I would say probably not. What do you think?" Toff tagged her husband in the response as she shut down the troll by attaching a screenshot of the duo's current account which had a balance of £0. Toff, who now lives between London and Scotland after marrying Fraserburgh-born businessman James, s hocked fans when she announced they had officially tied the knot last month. The pair only gave their guests 48 hours notice to decide if they could attend the gathering or not. The couple first began dating in 2023 and were engaged by October last year when James, 42, got down on one knee during a romantic trip to Greece to mark Georgia's 30th birthday. The couple exchanged vows on Saturday March 1 in Gardenstown, Aberdeenshire, in the same church which James' grandparents were married. Writing on his Instagram at the time, James said: "Georgia and I got married today. Some key details: 1st March 2025 57.6722° N, 2.3372° W (Gardenstown, Northeast Scotland) 6°C, 17-knot winds (because Scottish weather never disappoints) Spaniel ring bearer." He went on: "Guests - whoever could get there with 24 hours notice, Scottish honeymoon incoming. Married in the same church my grandparents were married in." Toff shared a similar update on her profile as she gushed: "1st March will forever be the best day of my life - the day I became your wife. We eloped! Guests: whoever could get here with 48 hours notice! "Temperature: 6°C. Wind: 17 knots North Westerly. Location: North East Scotland. To our family and friends who aren't with us, we will celebrate with you soonest!" Toff and James both shared some rather unconventional wedding snaps following the ceremony. One included the Scots BrewDog founder donning fishing waders, with another showing Georgia in an off-the shoulder fleece dress as she clutched at some freshly caught lobsters. While the speed of the wedding may come as a surprise to some fans, the reality TV star previously made it well known that she was keen to tie the knot sooner rather than later. At the time, she said: 'I'm just desperate to get married! I don't want to do any of the planning, I haven't planned a thing, I only want to be married - it's the opposite of how I thought I'd feel. "I thought I'd be swept up in what I'm going to wear and have hundreds of people there and all of that.'
