Junior Andre, 19, looks just like dad Pete as he brings First Dates girlfriend, 24, to date night at London Dungeons
JUNIOR Andre headed out with his First Dates girlfriend looking the spitting image of his pop star dad Peter Andre.
The 19-year-old was seen enjoying a fright night in London with his reality TV partner Jasmine Orr, 24.
The loved-up pair, who went Instagram official in May, looked happy and in the Halloween spirit as they enjoyed their spooky night at the tourist attraction.
The pair looked good together in their matching denim, white trainers and black combo.
Aspiring music artist Junior topped off his look with a black furry hat, while the brunette looked stunning in a sleek half-up hairdo with natural make-up.
The couple, who have launched a joint TikTok account, posed with props and sat together for pictures in the fake electric chair.
Jasmine previously kissed former Love Island star Adam Collard on E4‘s Celebs Go Dating in 2023 during his rocky romance with co-star Lottie Moss.
The salon assistant manager and content creator counts Love Island’s Tom Clare, Curtis Pritchard, Jack Fincham and Coco Lodge and friends.
Junior’s mum, Katie Price, 46, previously gave the pair a thumbs up and called them ‘so cute’.
A source told The Sun: “Junior’s already introduced Jasmine to his dad and step-mum Emily.
“It was important that they approve of her, but he’s already smitten.
“The relationship has been kept on the down-low so far, but telling his fans he was committed was a big step.”
Model mum Katie spoke about age-gap relationships on her podcast with her sister Sophie.
She said: “Isn’t it funny when your kids get older and they get in relationships and you meet their girlfriends and boyfriends as they’re adults, she’s an adult.”
Katie, who is in a relationship with MAFS star JJ Slater, who is 13 years younger than her, continued: “They’re not like young kids at school.
“‘What’s weird is she’s 23 [24] and he’s 18, see? You can always get an age gap in relationships. As you get older an age gap doesn’t matter.”
Dad Peter, 51, is married to doctor Emily MacDonagh, 35, and share a significant age gap.
Emily gave birth to their first daughter Amelia in January 2014, and in 2015, almost three years to the day of their first public date, the couple tied the knot in a lavish wedding at Mamhead House in Exeter.
Their second baby, Theo, followed just over a year later, in November 2016 and they welcomed baby Arabella in April 2024.
‘I was sacked as an art dealer because I was too obsessed with football, now I’m making history in the Premier League’
FABIAN HURZELER is equally as comfortable discussing Picasso and pressing — although he has a clear preference.
The Brighton boss was once sacked as an art dealer for being too obsessed with football, the sort of dedication which has turned him into a groundbreaking coach.
You may have heard he is quite young, a fact he is constantly reminded of.
But despite being 31, the decision to end his playing career and start coaching at 23 means he already possesses bags of experience.
Hurzeler has been coaching as long as Mikel Arteta, 11 years his senior.
Although the Arsenal manager never had to flog art on the side to keep things going as Hurzeler did when in charge of fifth-tier FC Pipinsried in his first role as a coach.
He said: “Life in Munich is expensive, like in London. When I sold one picture or one painting in a month, it was like I was done so I could focus more during this time and watch a lot of football games during this time during my work.
“That was also the reason why I got fired. The owner, she was very polite but one day she recognised that I’m watching more football during work instead of really working because we weren’t selling any paintings any more. Then I got fired.”
Hurzeler got the job in the first place through friend Roman Plesche, a sports-science student who worked in the gallery.
Plesche, who would later be Hurzeler’s sporting director in his first post as a head coach, recalled: “I told the boss that my best friend speaks good English and can also sell.
FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS
“He had a very good feel for art, he knew how to inspire customers.
“We sold an Andy Warhol together. But I think football is better for him than art.”
Hurzeler has already enjoyed more than the 15 minutes of fame that Warhol talked about.
The German talks a lot about the work ethic his parents instilled in him.
But those values also gave him the confidence to end a playing career which had seen him as a young talent in the Bayern Munich academy.
His family were still taken aback at the decision, explaining: “Of course they were surprised. I always say, it’s my life and it’s a choice I make. I take responsibility for that.
“No one else will take responsibility for my life. It’s something I always try to follow. I have to feel happy with the situation.
“A lot of people don’t understand it and because they said I could easily play, maybe in second or third division.
“But they will never understand the feeling inside of me, what I really want to achieve in life, my vision in life.”
Family values and vision is something Hurzeler comes back to a lot over an hour chatting at Brighton’s Sussex base.
One of four siblings, born to two dentists in Texas before moving to Germany at the age of two, all of them have a fierce competitive streak.
The Seagulls boss already has one yellow and one red card for his touchline antics this season and knows that competitive edge can get the better of him, in a football game or even playing Uno or Catan at Christmas.
He said: “Honestly, when you talk to some guys who I played against, they would say, ‘What an a*******’.
“When we were on the pitch, it was like winning, winning, winning. And that’s the same, honestly, with my family.
“When I’m with my family, let’s say at Christmas and we played games and I lost the game, the night was over for me.
“We are all made of the same blood, so my sisters and brothers and also my father, when they lose, they were the same. That’s how I grew up, it was a competition all the time.”
The desire to compete now extends to the padel court with Hurzeler — like almost everyone in football — having become a huge fan of the sport.
He is now campaigning for a court to be built at the Brighton training ground. Those luxuries are a far cry from his start as a coach, with FC Pipinsried eight years ago.
There was a fast start, promotion to the fourth tier in his first season but then the tests arrived.
Losing the first seven games of the new term taught Hurzeler he must be able to adapt.
He has always wanted to control a game through possession and with a high line but never just for the sake of it.
Hurzeler added: “I had a good start in my career. We went from the fifth league to the fourth in the first year.
“But we started by losing the first seven games. I was sitting in a coffee shop and the media called and said, ‘Do you think if you lose the next game, then you’ll still be the coach or not?’ Then I was like, ‘OK, that’s the business’.”
There has been adapting to do in the Premier League too.
Not even a year ago, Hurzeler was touring English clubs, watching Brighton as well as visiting Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham to try to learn from their experiences.
But that only went so far in preparing him for the Prem, admitting: “I didn’t expect it to be this intense and this demanding.
“Every team in this league, also the teams who were promoted like Ipswich, they have individual quality in their team to win games.
“Then during the game, it’s so fascinating for me… that’s what I learned, you have to work hard for the momentum.
“When you have momentum, you have to use it, otherwise the other team will take it.”
The final match before the international break was a perfect demonstration of this.
Hurzeler said little at half-time, deciding not to go in all guns blazing and it paid off — coming from 2-0 down to beat Tottenham 3-2.
He said: “Football is crazy sometimes.”
For all the questions over his age, that calm approach after a rotten first half showcased the benefit. Few other managers will have such a keen understanding of their squad’s mindset.
Asked what the biggest advantage of being a young manager is, he said: “Speaking the language of the players.
“I’m their age, so we have the same needs. We are in the same situations. Maybe we lose a girlfriend. Maybe you experience the same things, you have a similar sense of humour.”

I’m a gardening expert – 3 vegetables to plant now and they’ll be ready to eat on Christmas Day
A GARDENING expert has revealed three vegetables you should plant now, so they’re ready to be enjoyed as part of your Christmas dinner.
Winter is fast approaching, and with the days getting shorter, and the weather getting colder, many of us will be looking ahead to the festive season.
And what better way to prepare for December 25th than by growing your own vegetables to eat as part of a festive feast?
Although it is unfortunately too late to plant many Christmas staples such as carrots and parsnips, Craig Wilson, gardening expert and founder of Gardener’s Dream revealed that there are still plenty of vegetables that will be ready in time for the big day.
Potatoes
Potatoes are an iconic Christmas staple and Craig said that a few varieties can still be planted now and be ready in time for Christmas.
He said: “Varieties such as Charlotte and Maris Piper potatoes can withstand the cooler months which makes them the perfect choice for a winter dinner for their buttery and nutty flavours.”
Craig recommended planting potato seeds at least 20cm deep and keeping soil temperatures cool for the best results.
Radishes
Radishes are delicious when roasted alongside garlic and parsley in a Christmas dinner side dish.
And Craig revealed that they grow extremely quickly, so will be ready for harvest before Christmas.
He said: “Varieties such as Mooli or Black Spanish are winter-hardy and can be sown in October for an early harvest in December.
“When growing these for your dinner, the only responsibility is to ensure the soil stays moist to avoid a bitter crop.
“By Christmas, you’ll have a healthy amount of crisp and peppery radishes to add to your roast dishes.”
Rocket
Rocket will make a fabulous addition to any side salad, and now is the perfect time to plant it.
It should be shown directly into the soil, and thrives best in partial sunlight and moist soil.
It takes just four to six weeks for it to be ready for harvest, so if you plant it now it will be ready for December.
October gardening jobs
The Sun’s Gardening Editor, Veronica Lorraine, has shared the jobs you need to tackle in October.
“It’s a good time to trim deciduous hedges – like box, yew, hawthorn, hornbean and beech – plus hedge trimmers are a great upper body workout!
Make leafmould – gather up all the fallen leaves and fill either bin bags or plastic carrier bags. Seal the top, stick a few small holes in the bag – and then store for a year or more. Free compost!
It’s unlikely you’ll get any more red tomatoes so have one final harvest and chuck the plants on the compost. See if you can get the green ones to ripen by putting in a drawer (some say with a banana). Also keep the seeds from a couple – and plant again next year if they went well.
Finish getting in your spring bulbs. Ideally you’d have done daffs and alliums, but tulips are better in the ground when the soil temperature gets a bit colder.
It’s good to leave some plant litter in the ground – it adds to the nutrients as it rots down, and provides shelter and food for insects. But remove the manky brown bits collapsing all over the lawn/winter structure.
Mulch – it not only suppresses weeds, but keeps the soil warm, improves water retention and adds a little winter duvet to your outside space.
October’s a good month for carrots, peas, asparagus, broad beans, and rhubarb.”
Some spinach varieties, such as Giant Winter of Perpetual can also be sown in October, and will be ready for your Christmas dinner.

Laura Vaughan’s MAFS diary: They’re so desperate to stay, they’re ready to swap partners, this isn’t Love Island’
IT all kicked off last night as the couples faced each other at one of the most intense dinner parties this series.
Gym owner Hannah entered the party to a frosty welcome as Polly and Holly refused to greet her.
Polly even went as far as to say that Hannah “rubbed her up the f***ing wrong way” and she would no longer acknowledge her.
Things went from bad to worse as Stephen refused to speak to his wife, prompting her to flirt up a storm with Orson.
Orson admitted he was ready to “let his hair down” for the next 24 hours after his marriage to Richelle had explosively combust.
Hannah cheekily told Orson that she would be keen to “snog” him at the dinner table, leaving the engineer smitten.
Elsewhere, Stephen said he was keen to purse a romantic connection with Sionainn after learning that she and husband Ryan had a row and spent the night in separate apartments.
To be honest, this is all sounding a little too much like Love Island and the couples should have more self-respect for themselves before cracking on with someone else’s spouse.
If you are as obsessed as Married At First Sight as I am, you need to keep reading, as I’ve got some thoughts…
Stephen’s crossed a line
The last episode of Married At First Sight resembled Love Island, if feels like everyone’s forgotten that they’ve gone on to marry their partner and everyone just wants to swap their current partner.
Obviously, I’m mainly talking about Hannah and Orson, which we already knew about.
But I’m also talking about Stephen and Sionainn.
Stephen did not come across well in this episode at all.
I think the way that he handled the situation behind Ryan’s back and then proceeded to lie to him about how he did want to recouple with Sionainn but didn’t, considering what he said at the boys day around the fact that it wasn’t a ‘swingers club’ and he would never do that.
He did not come across well in this episode at all and it looks like Ryan really still quite angry about it.
So I wonder if there’s going to be ongoing beef with them at the commitment ceremony.
Ryan looks like he’s still got plenty more to get off his chest and I predict it will come to a head at the commitment ceremony.
Major red flags
We also hear that Sionainn and Ryan have had some kind of explosive argument behind-the-scenes, but we don’t know what that was.
It seems to allude to the fact, that it was something that was said at the girls and boys day.
But to be honest, we didn’t see any issue with those two.
So I think there MUST be more to this!
I’ve also heard rumours that a couple leave the show to concerning behaviour.
I’m starting to wonder if that might be the couple that we’re talking about…
Can I pull your for a chat?
I don’t think Hannah is helping herself by overtly flirting with Orson at the dinner table and saying they should go and make out.
Last night, Hannah enjoyed a chat with Orson, where he told her he and Richelle were done.
Hannah then got cosy with Orson at the dinner table – where some flirty remarks were made in front of the other couples.
But I think they’ve applied for the wrong show.
It isn’t Love Island and I actually heard Orson say ‘are you going to pull someone for a chat.
I think these people have genuinely forgotten what show they’ve gone on and it is starting to look like they’re so desperate to stay on the show.
Those that are not in relationships are currently working out ‘we’ll switch to someone else, just just to remain in the experiment.
Save the couple swapping for another show.
Polly’s excuses
Last night Polly refused to own up to her mistake.
During the girls catch-up, Polly decided to switch husband’s in the game and chose Stephen, claiming he had more emotional maturity.
When Polly told Adam, he understandably took it badly.
But it was Polly’s response which left me confused.
I don’t like the way that Polly handles her confrontation with anyone to be honest, especially with Adam at the minute.
She’s shouting at him, making excuses and not accepting responsibility for her own behaviour.
It’s time for her to be transparent and give Adam a proper apology without screaming it across the table.
Bride’s a no show
Richelle was not at the dinner party, which i found very interesting.
But I suspect she’s just done with Orson and does not want to get into a situation that will be full of drama with her husband that she really dislikes.
It’s game over for this pair.
Affair exposed
I wish that we saw more of the couples that are actually in good relationships.
We’ve hardly seen anything on Amy and Luke and we haven’t seen much on Kristina and Kieran and Sasha and Ross, and it just looks like among the mess of these hellish relationships, they’re getting lost and caught up in the crossfire.
The next ceremony, it looks like the affair with Hannah and Orson comes out and Richelle finds out.
So, I’m suspecting Richelle will obviously leave and Hannah and Orson will ask to stay in the experiment as a new couple.
But I’m more intrigued to see what will happen between Ryan and Stephen, because Ryan still looks very angry that Stephen made a beeline for Sionainn when he wasn’t at the dinner party.
It’s looks like it’s all about to kick off!
I had demons at 31 and thought ‘I’m next’ – Robbie Williams opens up about his torment in emotive tribute to Liam Payne
ROBBIE Williams has paid tribute to Liam Payne following his death aged 31.
The former Take That singer said he is overcome with “shock, sadness and confusion”.
Robbie has opened up about his own demons in the wake of Liam’s death on Wednesday.
The dad-of-one fell from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Ex-Premier League star, 56, ordered to stop exercising after ‘shock’ heart diagnosis that requires triple bypass surgery
PREMIER LEAGUE great Marco Gabbiadini revealed he had to stop exercising and watching football due to his heart condition.
Gabbiadini, 56, announced in May that he needs to undergo triple bypass surgery after discovering that his heart was “working at about 20 per cent” following a “slight issue” in his chest.
The Sunderland legend noticed the issue after feeling “heartburn” while exercising in the gym and found out his coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart, had an 80 per cent blockage.
The Derby great is still waiting for the operation and the doctors ordered him to avoid any type of exercise – from high-tempo sports like tennis to mundane chores like gardening.
The former striker also needs to avoid any situation that could cause him stress, which means no more live football on the telly.
Gabbiadini told The Mail: “I have had to stop exercising, so I am probably in the worst shape I have ever been in my life.
“Before May, I was still playing tennis a couple of times a week, cycling, gardening, helping the kids with their house renovations.
“But the surgeon said, ‘Stop tennis, no gardening and don’t watch any football on the telly’.
“So I have been watching Sunderland games this season in full on YouTube after they have finished, so I know the score and there is no stress involved.
“Having to have that mentality when you are only in your mid-50s has been a bit of a shock. But at the same time, you have got to count your lucky stars.

“Reporting it early meant I was put on tablets. I am on blood thinners, statins – eight different tablets to give me the best chance of getting to the surgery.
“To anyone reading this story, if you do have any issues, report is as soon as you can.”
After hanging up his boots at the age of 35, Gabbiadini turned to hospitality and now runs a B&B in York.
The ex-England Under-21 international’s Bishops guest house, which he opened in 2003, is now recognised as one of the best B&Bs in the Yorkshire city.
Changes to the Premier League for 2024/25
NOTHING stays the same forever.
And that includes the Premier League, which is making a number of tweaks this season.
Team news will now be released 75 MINUTES before kick-off, 15 minutes earlier than had been the case before.
Things could get crowded on the touchline, with the number of substitutes permitted to warm-up boosted from three players per team to FIVE.
There’s also a change to how added time is calculated when a team scores a goal, an update to the ‘multiball’ system and the introduction of semi-automated offsides – but not straight away.
Go here to read about all the changes to the Premier League for 2024/25.
Former Real Madrid star gets baby’s name tattooed before finding out he’s not the dad days later
FORMER Real Madrid defender Vinicius Tobias got his baby’s name tattooed on his arm… only to find out he is not the biological father.
Brazilian right-back Tobias, 20, and ex-wife Ingrid Lima welcomed daughter Maite into the world on October 8.
In honour of her birth, the footballer had “Maite, I love you,” tattooed onto his arm.
But influencer Ingrid has now revealed they had an on-off relationship during the time of Maite’s conception.
And she has confirmed a DNA test proved Tobias, who now plays for Shakhtar Donetsk, was not the biological father of the child.
Ingrid’s social media post reportedly read: “I came to give a statement about something that is getting annoying and that, unfortunately, I would have to come out on publicly to give you an explanation.
“Vinicius and I haven’t been together for a while. During that time, I was in a relationship with someone and so was he.
“We both moved on with our lives. In the meantime, Maite came along.
“We decided to do a DNA test, and Maite is not Vinicius’ daughter.”
Tobias has not yet commented on the result of the DNA test.

Tobias was compared to Dani Alves and Trent Alexander-Arnold two years ago.
He first impressed fans with his swashbuckling displays in the U15 South American Championships in 2019 – scoring in the final against Brazil’s rivals Argentina.
Bayern Munich, Juventus, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid all registered an interest in Tobias.
However, it was Shakhtar Donetsk who won the race for his signature – paying £6million for his services.
Real Madrid then acquired him on loan in 2022 and he spent two years in the Spanish capital, making one appearance for the senior side.
He returned to Shakhtar for the start of this season and has played five times in the 2024/25 campaign.
