I change men like handbags, but handbags are more useful!’ He’s gutted, but Katie claims she has not been unfaithful or been going behind his back and sexting other men.”Commenting on Katie’s love life, the source noted: “Katie loves the excitement of the chase and being chased. If it’s naughty, then she’s in.”They added: “She craves the dopamine rush and is a self-confessed addict to anything that gives her a rush and instant gratification. She lives for her next hit, and sadly, JJ is just another statistic of collateral damage.”She first took a shine to JJ when he was on MAFS(Image: Alan Chapman/Dave Benett/Getty Images)Recently, Katie was snapped getting close to several shirtless men while on holiday in Ibiza, actions that are said to have left JJ concerned about their relationship. “She can’t help but flirt and cosy up to people, it’s the life she’s always led,” an insider divulged to OK!The former glamour model was seen partying with notorious ex-UFC champion Conor McGregor, ‘EastEnders’ star Dean Gaffney, and club tycoon Wayne Lineker, owner of the famous O Beach club on the island.Katie hinted at potential issues in her relationship with JJ during a May interview on Paul C Brunson’s podcast, where she shared concerns about being overly attached to her beau and ignoring her friends.She confessed: “When you meet someone, it’s natural to want to be with them all the time. Then the mistakes I’ve made in the past are then you’re with them all the time.”She added with apprehension: “I’m a bit worried that I’ve got like that with JJ.”Join the Daily Star’s WhatsApp for the sexiest headlines, showbiz gossip and lots moreThe Daily Star is now on WhatsApp and we want you to join us!Through the app, we’ll send you the sassiest showbiz stories, some naught headline and a seismic smattering of aliens…along with the latest breaking news of course.To join our community, all you have to do to join isclick on this link, select ‘Join Chat’ and you’re in!No one will be able to see who has sign up and no one can send messages except for the Daily Star team.

Victoria Beckham is set to release her new Netflix documentary in October but her eldest son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz are not lined up to make an appearance12:50, 24 Jul 2025The family feud continues(Image: Instagram)Victoria Beckham’s highly anticipated Netflix documentary is set to be released in October – but her eldest son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz will not be part of it.Despite the recent press reports of family feuds, the documentary is said to focus solely on Victoria’s transformation from pop sensation to fashion legend, straying away from family tensions in the process.Sources indicate that Brooklyn and Nicola were never filmed for the four-part show. “The kids hardly feature, it’s not a cut of Brooklyn and Nicola. They weren’t involved initially,” an source commented.The series rather concentrates on Victoria’s life and profession, scenes which promise “tears,” humour, and inspiration, as her highlight reels in David Beckham’s own Netflix documentary.Brooklyn won’t appear in his mum’s new doc(Image: Getty Images for YouTube)This follows Brooklyn and Nicola come amid reports of growing tensions within the Beckham clan. The couple were noticeably missing from David Beckham’s 50th birthday bash at the beginning of this year, which fuelled feud whispers.Brooklyn is reported to have become distant from his younger brothers, Cruz and Romeo, with insiders claiming the rows were escalated further after Romeo blocked Brooklyn and Nicola on Instagram.According to reports, Brooklyn was not aware of the unfollowing saga until seeing news of it on social media.The couple seem unbothered by the dramaIn other Beckham news, pop icon Elton John, the godfather of Brooklyn, intervened at a private lunch, according to sources. He took no sides, but urged reconciliation in a reportedly gentle manner.”Elton is the showbiz equivalent of Switzerland,” the source said. “He’s not taking sides, but he loves everybody deeply and wants everybody to be happy.”Singer Elton, who hung out with Brooklyn and Nicola in Cannes, has remained friendly towards the couple, enjoying Nicola’s sense of humour and staying close to them as a kind of “spiritual adviser.” Following his intervention, Victoria is said to have extended a low-key olive branch, possibly the first step towards healing within the family.Article continues belowJoin the Daily Star’s WhatsApp for the sexiest headlines, showbiz gossip and lots moreThe Daily Star is now on WhatsApp and we want you to join us!Through the app, we’ll send you the sassiest showbiz stories, some naught headline and a seismic smattering of aliens…along with the latest breaking news of course.To join our community, all you have to do to join isclick on this link, select ‘Join Chat’ and you’re in!No one will be able to see who has sign up and no one can send messages except for the Daily Star team.

A new poll has uncovered some worrying statistics about Brits’ behaviour in the sun, with a quarter of adults admitting they’ve gone for a swim after consuming alcoholRob Knight12:50, 24 Jul 2025Updated 12:51, 24 Jul 2025Tom Daley reunites with Malibu to highlight the dangers of alcohol-related drowning incidents in hot weatherA quarter of Brits are more prone to taking risks during hot weather, with one in three admitting to going for a swim after having a drink. A survey of 2,000 adults found that one in five see no issue with going for a dip after having a drink or two in the summer, despite the fact that a quarter of drowning incidents involve alcohol.The main reasons people gave for swimming after drinking were pressure from friends and a lack of understanding about the dangers. However, many people were unaware that hot weather can intensify the effects of alcohol.The star is once again fronting Malibu’s ‘Don’t Drink and Drive’ campaign(Image: PinPep)Research has shown that the risk of drowning in the UK is significantly higher after drinking when temperatures are above 20 degrees, compared to when it’s below 10 degrees.Malibu commissioned the survey and has teamed up with Tom Daley to raise awareness about the increased risk of drowning in hot weather after drinking.The Olympic gold medallist, who retired last year, showed his support for the campaign by wearing special colour-changing swimming trunks that turn yellow at 20 degrees, serving as a reminder of the increased risk.He said: “It was inspiring to see the impact of last year’s ‘Don’t Drink and Dive’ campaign, in raising awareness of water responsibility when drinking.”This year, our mission remains the same: to raise awareness and change behaviour for the better, this time with a fresh summer-centric focus.”Tom dons a pair of heat-sensitive knitted trunks that change from coral pink to yellow when it hits 20°C (Image: PinPep)The research revealed that for 38 per cent of people, enjoying a few tipples by the beach or pool is one of their favourite activities, particularly on holiday. However, 57 per cent of drinkers admit it’s all too easy to overindulge.Among those who’ve taken a dip after a drink, the pool is their most likely choice (86 per cent), followed by the sea (42 per cent) and hot tubs (29 per cent).Regrettably, 45 per cent have soon regretted their decision, confessing they’ve struggled in the water after consuming alcohol.Conducted via OnePoll, the survey found many individuals were oblivious to the health hazards associated with drinking and swimming before participating in the study.Cold water shock can be more challenging after swimming whilst under the influence of alcohol, and there’s an increased risk of hypothermia. Likewise, coordination is affected and judgement is typically impaired.A spokesperson for Malibu said: “With ‘Don’t Drink and Dive’ back for round two, we’re here to remind the nation of the increased drowning risk in hot weather.”As temperatures rise, people are naturally drawn to the outdoors, so it’s important to remind Brits that the risk increases when they become less cautious in these conditions, after all, one in four drownings involve alcohol.”We encourage the nation to have fun this summer and stay responsible.”Sam Hill, researcher at Bournemouth University, added: “What should be a fun day near the water can turn into a high-risk situation when you combine alcohol and heat.Article continues below”Don’t Drink and Dive’ sheds an important light on these dangers and encourages everyone to drink and enjoy the water responsibly this summer.” More
