Kate Garraway was left mortified after Adil Ray put her on blast for presenting Good Morning Britain while wearing flip flops during the national heatwave.During Friday’s (June 17) instalment of the popular ITV breakfast show, the 55-year-old broadcaster made sure to keep cool while she presented the three-hour long programme in the sweltering heat.But the star was devastated after her 48-year-old co-star ratted out her fashion faux pas live on air as the camera panned down to her freshly manicured toes in a pair of blue flip flops.Completely embarrassed at her choice of fashionable footwear, she immediately hit back at the broadcaster as she remained cool in a breezy blue dress and matching airy sandals.Adil exposed the star's bare feet live on air, saying: "I've got flip flops to the left of me and knobbly knees to the right of me and I'm here stuck in the middle."As she attempted to hide her bare feet from the camera, the mum-of-two confessed: “Yesterday, I treated myself to a pedicure for the first time since Derek got sick.”Her colleague chuckled beside her as he went on to admit he didn’t have a problem with her presenting in her bare feet but instead revealed he had a strong disgust around armpits on show in the warmer seasons.He explained: “I don’t like armpits, I don’t like seeing them on show” as Kate replied: “There is a lot more skin on show, a lot more midriff's visible.”It comes after the doting wife hit back at Adil after he accused her of sleeping in dirty bedsheets covered in bed bugs. During Thursday's (June 16) edition of the early morning programme, the TV presenter confessed she woke up covered in mosquito bites due to the soaring temperatures across the country this week.

Love Island promises viewers a summer full of sun, sex and drama as a group of singletons couple up in an effort to find true love and win the £50,000 prize money.For some, like Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury, their on-screen romances end up going the distance, but others aren't as lucky.Whether it's being dumped during a recoupling, choosing to leave early, or splitting up months after the show, some contestants find themselves single once they return home.And it seems some are desperate to leave the world of grafting behind and instead choose to rekindle their romance with an ex.Before going on Love Island, Lucinda Strafford was in a relationship with footballer Aaron Connolly and was even rumoured to have still been secretly dating her former beau during her time on the ITV show.However, Lucinda shut down the speculation, telling fans that they had ended their relationship four months before she jetted off to the villa.But the pair soon relit the flame, with Aaron even making it Insta-official, posting a snap of them looking loved-up in Playboy Halloween costumes.Back in September, Lucinda was pictured with Aaron as the pair enjoyed a shopping trip in London.At the time, a source told The Sun: "They were together all day shopping in London, and looked very comfortable with each other – definitely like a couple."Unfortunately, the pair seem to have ended their on and off relationship and have unfollowed each other on social media.Dani Dyer is one of Love Island's most famous contestants.She is the eldest daughter of EastEnders actor Danny Dyer and has gone on to present shows with her dad.In 2018, Dani appeared on Love Island and coupled up with Jack Fincham, with the fan-favourites going on to win the series.It seemed

Ramzan Kadyrov, the hardline Putin supporter who left his stronghold in Chechnya to fight for Russia in Ukraine, has dismissed a rumour about the Russian leader’s health.The only strange thing about that is, the rumour never really existed.In a bizarre, hesitant audio recording posted to his Telegram channel, the Chechen leader told followers that he had "read that our president had fallen into a coma" and that "they are looking for a replacement right now.”Speaking in slow, halting Russian, rather than in his native Chechen, Kadyrov dismissed the suggestion, claiming that he himself had he had "recently" spoken with Putin."He has a very cheerful voice, a commanding voice, and he is ready to complete the special operation without harming the Ukrainian people and the state as much as possible," Kadyrov insisted.He issued a stark warning to anyone spreading rumours about Putin’s health, saying "I advise you that it is better to shut your mouths.”.The leader of the majority-muslim Chechen republic signed off the 69-second recording by saying "May Allah grant our president a long life, health, happiness and good luck.” There has long been speculation about the state of Vladimir Putin’s health. Rumours have swirled for the past few years that the former KGB officer, who has occupied one or other of Russia’s top political posts since 1999, is suffering from Parkinson’s Disease, or blood cancer, or both.

Prince Harry has been consigned to Prince William’s past and doesn’t feature in his future royal plans, a royal expert has claimed.Harry and his brother have reportedly been on bad terms since his departure from royal affairs in early 2020, with one expert recently describing the relationship as a “permanent cold shoulder”.This followed allegations the Duke of Sussex levelled against the Royal Family in a controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey, where he suggested that William felt trapped in the institution.Now, speaking on the Palace Confidential podcast, royal expert Richard Eden addressed the speculation that William has moved on from the row, and claimed this meant Harry had been sidelined from his plans.“It’s a really interesting phrase and I think that is a sort of accurate reflection of where we are, that essentially Harry is almost someone from his past I’m sorry to say,” he suggested.“It sounds brutal and it is sad, but he’s not part of the future that William envisages and is almost irrelevant to that.“We saw that in a pretty stark way in the Jubilee celebrations I think.”The feuding pair were recently reunited at the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, but they did not appear together in public, and there has been no confirmation of whether they met in private.In fact, one royal source claimed that Harry attempted to meet his brother but was snubbed, and there was no sign of the Cambridges at Lilibet’s first birthday party, which was held at Frogmore Cottage.And, also speaking on the panel, royal expert Kate Mansey agreed that the lack of a Jubilee reconciliation doesn’t bode well for the future.“It’s such a shame, it was described to me as civil, which is palace courtier [language] for what the rest of
