Ant and Dec previously opened up about their decision to end Saturday Night Takeaway.
Since shooting to fame, the Geordie duo have become TV’s go-to presenting duo.
From hosting Britain’s Got Talent to their own Saturday Night Takeaway show, Ant and Dec have kept busy over the years. The lads are bad on screens this weekend too, for the I’m A Celebrity Coming Out show on Saturday (December 14).
But back in 2023, the boys left fans gutted when they confirmed they were taking a break from Saturday Night Takeaway.

Ant and Dec on taking a break from SNT
The Geordie duo hosted their final episode of Saturday Night Takeaway in April 2024 after more than two decades on air. Fans were gutted when Ant and Dec announced they would be taking a break from the show after its 20th series.
And it turns out their decision to end things was down to the pair now having families of their own.
Dec is married to Ali Astall and is a dad of two. Ant meanwhile, recently became a dad for the first time with wife Anne-Marie Corbett – who gave birth to their baby boy Wilder in May earlier this year.

Ant and Dec ‘want to step off the hamster wheel’
Speaking to The Independent in February ahead of their final SNT episode, Ant and Dec opened up on why they stopped the show.
“It was a tough decision to put Takeaway on hiatus, but they were on the same page,” Dec said, before he added: “Twenty series just feels like a natural point to pause. We don’t want to say we’ll never do it again. But we’ve both got families now. Our lives have changed dramatically. We want to step off the hamster wheel, catch our breath and decide what’s next.”
Ant then described it as “bittersweet” but admitted “it feels like the right thing”.
SNT’s final episode
In April 2024, Ant and Dec hosted their final Saturday Night Takeaway show for a while. In an emotional end to the show, Dec tearfully said: “We have truly adored every second making this show.
“But there’s one thing we have never ever forgotten. That’s the fact it’s not our show, it’s your show. So we’d like to say a thank you to you, our audience.”
I’m A Celebrity… Get me Out of Here! Coming Out airs on Saturday (December 14) at 9:35pm on ITV1.

The crypto markets have seen intense volatility since Bitcoin broke through the $100,000 mark for the first time on December 4, with multiple plunges that have sent shockwaves that sank other assets—and piled up liquidations in the process.
But while Bitcoin has mostly rebounded from the sizable dips, Dogecoin has lost considerable steam over the last week since popping to a high of $0.48 for the first time since 2021.
At a current price just below $0.39, Dogecoin is down nearly 19% since that peak seen late on December 7. And over the last seven days, including data from the hours before that recent high, DOGE is down 15%.
That makes it the biggest loser among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, outpacing Cardano with a 13% dip during that span, and Solana with a 10% correction. Bitcoin is the only asset in the top 10 that’s green on the week, up 0.7% as of this writing at a current price of $100,995.
Looking beyond the top 10, other leading meme coins in the top 100 cryptocurrencies have posted even sharper losses over the last week.
Dogwifhat (WIF) is the biggest loser in the top 100, down 28% during that span, while Bonk (BONK) has fallen 23%, Brett (BRETT) is down 22%, and Shiba Inu (SHIB) has matched the DOGE dip at 15%.
Overall, the crypto market has fallen by 3% over the last 24 hours, per data from CoinGecko.

Will Smith wants to make one thing perfectly clear:
He has zero involvement in the never-ending allegations surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs.
As you’ve likely heard by now, Diddy is currently behind bars awaiting trial on a whole slew of charges, many of which stem from rape and sexual assault allegations.

A Growing Scandal
Earlier this week, Jay Z became embroiled in the scandal, as an anonymous accuser alleged that the hip hop legend raped her alongside Diddy.
She was just 13 at the time of the alleged incident, which she claims took place in 2000.
Perhaps seeking to preemptively avoid any legal drama of his own, Will disavowed any connection with Diddy during a concert in San Diego Thursday night.

“The world we’re in right now is really hard for y’all to discern what’s real and what’s true,” Will told the crowd, in footage obtained by TMZ.
“I haven’t addressed any of this publicly, but I just wanted to say this very clearly: I don’t have s–t to do with Puffy, so y’all can stop all the memes.”
Will didn’t go into specifics with regard to the memes, but it seems he’s upset by some content that he’s seen circulating on social media.

“You can stop all that bulls–t I ain’t been nowhere near those damn Freak-Offs. I do enough of my own s–t, don’t be putting other people’s bulls–t,” he continued, referring to Diddy’s infamous sex parties.
“I ain’t been anywhere near that man [or] did none of that stupid s–t, so whenever you guys hear that, it’s a damn lie.”
Needless to say, Will was quite adamant about his lack of any connection to Diddy.

But he also kept things somewhat light, joking that he “doesn’t even like baby oil.” Clearly, Will does not want to wind up answering any Diddy-related questions, as Jay Z might soon find himself doing
What’s Next For Diddy?
As for the man at the center of all of this, it’s looking more and more like he might remain locked for a very long time.
Diddy’s bail requests have been repeatedly denied, as accusers continue to come forward with horrifying allegations of abuse.

Lawyers for the jailed hip hop mogul continue to maintain his innocence.
They’ll get the chance to make their case in court when Diddy’s trial gets underway in May.
But however the trial unfolds, we think it’s safe to say that the court of public opinion has already reached its verdict.
# Ethereum’s Potential to Surpass Bitcoin This Winter Season
As the world of cryptocurrency continues to evolve, two giants at the forefront consistently capture the limelight: Bitcoin and Ethereum. While Bitcoin often steals the show as the original cryptocurrency, Ethereum is steadily carving its own path with unique attributes and potential that could see it outperform Bitcoin, particularly during the winter months of December and January. This article delves into the reasons why Ethereum might have an edge over Bitcoin during this period and explores the trends that could influence this potential shift.
## 1. Technological Advancements and Network Upgrades
Ethereum is well-known for its continuous drive towards technological advancement and innovation, and this winter season is no exception. The Ethereum network has been undergoing significant upgrades to improve scalability, reduce transaction fees, and increase overall efficiency. The completion of the **Ethereum 2.0 upgrade** is anticipated to boost network performance dramatically.
### How Ethereum 2.0 Benefits Users– **Reduced energy consumption**: By transitioning from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS), Ethereum drastically cuts energy requirements, making it more environmentally friendly.– **Lower transaction fees**: Optimization of transaction processes reduces fees, which is particularly attractive during peak transaction times.– **Enhanced scalability**: With features like sharding, Ethereum can handle a larger number of transactions per second, allowing for smoother experiences in decentralized applications (dApps).
These technological advancements could attract more investors and developers to Ethereum, potentially elevating its market position in comparison to Bitcoin.
The DeFi sector has seen exponential growth, primarily built on Ethereum’s blockchain. Ethereum’s ability to support ***smart contracts*** – self-executing contracts with terms of the agreement directly written into code – positions it as a leader in this space. During the winter months, when market activity typically increases due to end-of-year financial recalibrations, Ethereum’s stronghold in DeFi could significantly impact its performance.
### Key Aspects of Ethereum’s DeFi Dominance– **Diverse array of dApps**: From lending platforms to decentralized exchanges, Ethereum hosts a wide range of DeFi applications.– **Growing total value locked (TVL)**: Ethereum’s TVL in DeFi often surpasses that of other blockchains, instilling confidence in its ecosystem.– **Yield farming and staking opportunities**: Investors have numerous options to earn returns, adding layers of financial utility to Ethereum.
With an ever-growing network of DeFi applications, Ethereum remains a beacon for innovation in financial technology.
## 3. Institutional Adoption and Growing Developer Community
Another reason Ethereum could surpass Bitcoin is the increasing interest from institutional investors. Large financial institutions are beginning to see the potential of Ethereum beyond just a cryptocurrency, particularly as a backbone for blockchain solutions.
### Factors Influencing Institutional Interest– **Smart contract capabilities**: Ethereum’s ability to automate complex financial transactions is appealing to financial institutions seeking efficiency and security.– **Enterprise Ethereum solutions**: Collaborations with tech giants for scalable backend solutions position Ethereum at the heart of enterprise blockchain use cases.– **Expanding developer community**: A vibrant and growing developer community continually innovates on Ethereum’s platform, enhancing its utility and appeal.
As institutions and developers flock to Ethereum, the resulting innovations and use cases could lead to a surge in value relative to Bitcoin.
## 4. Hedging Against Volatility: Market Flexibility
While volatility is a characteristic shared by all cryptocurrencies, Ethereum has shown a degree of resilience and adaptability. This feature may be especially critical during the volatile winter months.
### Ethereum’s Adaptive Advantages– **Diversified ecosystem**: By being the foundation for various sectors like gaming, NFTs, and DeFi, Ethereum benefits from diverse sources of value, mitigating risks associated with market fluctuations.– **Community-driven upgrades**: The Ethereum community actively participates in discussions about network upgrades, providing real-time solutions to market demands and technological challenges.
This flexibility can make Ethereum a more appealing choice for investors looking for options beyond Bitcoin during uncertain market conditions.
## 5. Market Sentiment and Strategic Partnerships
With the rise of web3 and increased interest in blockchain beyond traditional finance, Ethereum has benefited tremendously from strategic partnerships and positive market sentiment.
### Impactful Partnerships and Public Perceptions– **Collaborations with major corporations**: Partnerships with well-known companies can increase Ethereum’s reach and adoption in mainstream markets.– **Public awareness and evolving narratives**: As narratives around blockchain technology evolve, Ethereum’s use case beyond digital currency is becoming more apparent and widely accepted.– **Celebrity endorsements and NFT collaborations**: The increasing involvement of public figures when it comes to NFTs and blockchain projects on Ethereum aids in maintaining high visibility in the public eye.
The continually improving sentiment surrounding Ethereum can boost its position against Bitcoin, especially with strategic partnerships enhancing its reputation and real-world utility.
## Conclusion
In the race of cryptocurrencies, it’s clear that Ethereum has attributes that could see it outperform Bitcoin during December and January. The combination of technological advancements, a booming DeFi ecosystem, growing institutional trust, and strategic collaborations make Ethereum a strong contender for both experienced and new investors alike. As the winter months approach, investors should keenly observe these trends, as Ethereum’s potential to outpace Bitcoin during this period is backed by significant and diverse fundamentals.

In “My Time to Stand,” co-authored with Melissa Moore, Gypsy Rose Blanchard alleges that her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard—who medical professionals believe suffered from Munchausen syndrome by proxy—isolated her from their family to hide the fabricated medical conditions and treatments imposed on her.
Dee Dee successfully deceived medical professionals, family members, and the public into believing that Gypsy suffered from a range of serious health conditions, including leukemia, muscular dystrophy, epilepsy, and other chronic illnesses. She is also accused of falsely claiming that Gypsy had developmental delays, ensuring her complete dependence on her mother.

According to Gypsy Rose Blanchard, the repercussions of Dee Dee Blanchard’s fabrications also included the removal of her teeth and salivary glands, the use of a wheelchair, and the insertion of a feeding tube.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard Writes About The Feeding Tube In Her New Memoir
MEGA
Gypsy Rose Blanchard was forced by her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, to have a feeding tube inserted as part of the fabricated medical conditions imposed on her. Dee Dee claimed that Gypsy had trouble swallowing and digesting food, which required a feeding tube for nutrition. However, it was later deemed that this was entirely unnecessary, as Gypsy did not have any of the medical issues her mother alleged.
“That feeding tube kept me connected to my mother the way an umbilical cord does,” Gypsy revealed in her memoir. The tube was part of Dee Dee’s broader scheme of medical deception, which allegedly included unnecessary medications, surgeries, and treatments designed to maintain the appearance of chronic illnesses.

Other Surgeries And Procedures That Were Performed On Gypsy Rose

Gypsy Rose Blanchard revealed that she underwent approximately 30 different medical procedures at her mother’s insistence. These included multiple surgeries on her eyes, legs, and throat.
Additionally, Dee Dee forced the removal of Gypsy’s salivary glands, further contributing to the unnecessary and invasive treatments she endured. “You have been cut open. You had parts taken out of you. You got hacked up. You got poisoned,” psychologist Dr. Phil McGraw said in 2017. “Your childhood was stolen from you. Your adolescence was stolen from you.”

Gypsy Claims She Is Still Working On Forgiving Her Mom

Gypsy Rose Blanchard shared with Dr. Phil McGraw that she is actively working on forgiving both her mother and herself as part of her healing journey.
“You are very conflicted right now. I mean, you feel guilty on one hand and very exploited on another,” Dr. Phil said at the time. “That is because both things are true. You were terribly victimized. You were tortured as a child year after year after year.
“It’s just a perfect storm of bad circumstance and bad psyche,” he continued. “I think that is why they were willing to make a plea deal with you instead of dropping the hammer on you.”

Dee Dee Blanchard Allegedly Fabricated Gypsy’s Birth Certificate
Instagram | Gypsy Rose Blanchard
To maintain her web of deception, Dee Dee Blanchard allegedly falsified Gypsy’s birth certificate to make her appear younger and consulted with at least 150 doctors over the years, according to ABC News. When Gypsy questioned her health, Dee Dee allegedly responded with fabricated explanations to keep her under control.
“I would voice concerns, being like, ‘I really don’t feel like I need this,’ and she would get really, really upset with me and start manipulating me,” Gypsy told PEOPLE Magazine a few years back. “Obviously I knew that I could walk and didn’t need a feeding tube, but everything else was a really big confusion for me. Whenever I’d question it my mother would say I’d had a seizure the night before and didn’t remember. There was always an excuse.”
Gypsy Rose Serves Time In Prison For Her Involvement In Her Mom’s Murder
MEGA
Gypsy Rose Blanchard was sentenced to 10 years in prison for her role in the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard. After serving 85% of her sentence, Gypsy, now 33, was granted parole and released from prison on December 28. She has since expressed hopes of becoming an advocate for individuals in abusive relationships.
“I want to make sure that people in abusive relationships do not resort to murder,” Gypsy told PEOPLE Magazine. “It may seem like every avenue is closed off, but there is always another way. Do anything, but don’t take this course of action.”

Strictly final star Tasha Ghouri has been dealt a big blow, just hours before tonight’s final (Saturday, December 14).
The former Love Island star is gunning for the Glitterball trophy alongside Chris McCausland, Sarah Hadland, and JB Gill tonight.

Tasha Ghouri dealt blow ahead of Strictly final
Tonight will see Tasha and her pro partner, Aljaz Skorjanec, perform together in the Strictly final.
The 26-year-old will be performing three dances tonight – an American Smooth, a Show Dance, and a Couple’s Choice.
However, just hours before the final, bookies have revealed that she is the least likely to win tonight.
Over the last couple of weeks, Tasha and Aljaz have found themselves in the bottom two.
Now, according to Gambling.com, Tasha has seen her odds “drifting at the wrong time”. The bookies have her at 33/1 to win tonight’s final.
Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola are her nearest rivals, at 25/1 to win. JB Gill and Lauren Oakley are 16/1 to win, whilst Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell are favourites.
Bookmakers OLBG are claiming that Tasha has just a 3.8% chance of winning tonight. Meanwhile, Chris has an 83.3% likelihood of winning.
Have the judges been planting seeds of doubt about Tasha? (Credit: BBC)
Strictly star accuses judges of ‘planting doubts’ about Tasha
During an exclusive interview with ED! recently, former Strictly pro dancer Brendan Cole claimed that the judges have been planting doubts about Tasha in the minds of the audience.
“The audience will make up their own minds, but a lot of people do listen to what they [the judges] say. Otherwise, what’s the point of them?” he said.
“It won’t alter [the results] that much, but they can. They can plant doubts in people’s minds,” he then continued.
“They [the judges] have been really strong on JB Gill because they’ve been championing him for the last few weeks,” he then went on to say.
“They’re not quite as kind about Tasha [Ghouri], which they were in the first few weeks. That can plant a seed in the audience’s minds that JB [Gill] is the best as he’s getting the best marks, so let’s vote for him. That’s essentially what happens,” he then said.
Tonight’s winner will be solely decided by the audience, who will be voting for their favourite.

Chris dealt blow
Tasha hasn’t been the only star to be dealt a blow ahead of the final tonight.
Chris McCausland’s parents confirmed today that they won’t be able to attend the final due to illness.
Speaking to the MailOnline, Chris’ father said: “We’re very proud of him – he’s done very well. Unfortunately the wife’s in bed with flu so we’re not able to go down and see him.”
When asked whether Chris can win, he said: “You never know”.

The cryptocurrency market in 2024 is experiencing a true boom, with meme tokens once again in the spotlight. Both experienced investors and newcomers are actively discussing the rapid growth of meme coins, many of which have increased in price by thousands of percent in a short period. Social media is filled with success stories and recommendations on which assets to acquire. As a result, interest in meme tokens has reached unprecedented heights, and more and more people are deciding to delve into this unstable yet appealing market.
In 2024, Shiba Inu became one of the most prominent meme tokens in the cryptocurrency market. The token’s market capitalization exceeds $16 billion, allowing it to claim an esteemed 13th place on the CoinMarketCap platform. However, the question arises: is everything as optimistic for this asset?
Over the past month, the price of the meme token has increased by only 10%. This is relatively modest, especially in light of the positive dynamics of the overall market. Trading volume has slightly increased since the beginning of the year, but this change is also not significant. Considering a market cap of over $16 billion, the prospect of the token growing by 100% is a rather risky endeavor. It should be noted that large meme tokens, such as Shiba Inu, usually do not attract the interest of short-term traders. It can be assumed that the influx of investment in this asset is primarily driven by experienced investors who still believe in its potential. What exactly do they see in its future?
Now let’s turn our attention to a new meme token, Pepe Meme, which in the long term could catch up with and even surpass Shiba Inu in market capitalization.
Key Reasons Why Pepe Meme Could Surpass Shiba Inu
Let’s examine the blockchain on which the new project is based. Solana is currently experiencing a peak in popularity due to a multitude of meme tokens and an active community that supports their development. Meanwhile, Shiba Inu operates on the Ethereum network, which unfortunately cannot effectively compete with Solana in several key aspects. The primary issues are high transaction fees and processing speed.
Why is this important? Paying high fees and waiting for your transaction to be processed creates significant inconveniences for users, especially for newcomers.
Pepe Meme is on the cutting edge compared to Shiba Inu, as evidenced in both the realm of memes and as a full-fledged cryptocurrency project. Pepe boasts a developed ecosystem that is both extensive and useful. One of the best features is the airdrop, which truly highlights Pepe’s commitment to its investors and fans. After all, it is nice to receive something for free, isn’t it? Such moments contribute to forming closer relationships between the project and its participants, generating interest and building trust. Isn’t it important for cryptocurrency projects not only to generate income but also to show care for their users?
>>>Join Pepe Meme Airdrop<<<
Growing Interest in Pepe Meme
In a relatively short period, the project has managed to attract over 500,000 followers on Pepe Meme Twitter and raise approximately $2 million in its pre-sale.
>>> Pre-market sale now live!<<<
This strong momentum for growth has been driven by notable crypto influencers who have supported the project’s idea and begun sharing it with their communities. Classic examples include Elon Musk and ClayBro, who have mentioned the project in their posts.
Сonclusion
Pepe Meme is not just a meme, but a project with significant potential. It is designed to go beyond traditional memes and position itself as a serious player in the cryptocurrency market. With ongoing development and the introduction of new features, the project embodies the ambitions of a serious player. The integration with the Solana ecosystem and growing support from investors create a solid foundation for future growth. It is impossible to overlook how meme tokens are gaining increasing attention in the cryptocurrency space.
In this context, Pepe has every chance to make its mark and even compete with well-known players like Shiba Inu.

6. Wool Overcoat with Monochrome Layers
A wool overcoat matches monochrome layers to epitomize a “timeless sophistication and understated elegance.” This whole ensemble just naturally combines warmth, style, and versatility-it’s the perfect choice for winter days when looking both chic and practical is at stake. The sleekness of a wool overcoat combined with clean lines of monochromatic dressing forms a sophisticated look that can be pulled off for almost any occasion.
Styling Tips
Monochromatic Layering: Wool overcoats are the ultimate winter essential, providing both insulation and style. Pairs really well with a monochromatic palette, be it in shades of gray, black, camel, or white as this look transcends a sense of being refined and put together.
Sweater Layering: Layering with a wool turtleneck or fine knit sweater on top adds texture. Be sure to layer under the coat with a fitted, high-neck sweater that will serve to keep you warm without letting the sleek look go.
Bottoms: Team with customized trousers, a midi skirt or a pencil skirt in the same color family for a more put-together finish. Ditch trousers for a pair of well-fitting denim or leggings for a laid-back yet stylish look.
Footwear: Leather boots, be it ankle or knee-high, will go hand-in-hand with the overall look. For a perfectly monochromatic outfit, opt for shiny black or sleek brown boots.
Accessories: Keep accessories simple but refined: leather gloves, a structured leather bag, and a minimalist scarf in a matching color. A silver or gold watch can also add a touch of luxury without distracting from the outfit.
This outfit is perfect for everything from business meetings to casual holiday brunches or even evenings out. Whether it is strolling through a winter market or attending a classy dinner, the wool overcoat with monochrome layers will ensure that you stay warm, stylish, and sophisticated throughout the day or night.

Plaid Trousers: Plaid trousers with a slim or straight leg are really the modern, sleek way to go. Plaid is available in formal checks to more intricate weaves, just make sure the colors of the plaid coordinate with the sweater.
