Brie Garcia is sharing an important message.
As her sister Nikki Garcia continues to be locked in a family dispute with her estranged husband Artem Chigvintsev, Brie issued an impassioned message...
NICK Knowles has been forced to pull out of tomorrow’s Strictly Come Dancing live show after falling and hurting his knee.
DIY SOS star Nick, 62, injured himself after falling when he did a jump during a dress rehearsal – leaving him on crutches.
It is the second injury to blight Nick on Strictly after he injured his shoulder and arm while changing a car tyre.
A source said: “Nick won’t be able to take part in Strictly tomorrow night after hurting his knee.
“He was in a dress rehearsal with his partner Luba Mushtuk when he did a jump and landed awkwardly.
“Nick has hurt his knee and is having to use crutches to get around now.
“It is such a devastating blow for him and he is being supported by the Strictly team.
“They are sending him for scans and are doing everything they can to make sure he is okay.
“Nick had to fight to make sure he could take part in the first live show after hurting his arm and shoulder and he did so well.
“This new injury has been a real blow and he is incredibly upset about it.
“Luba and Nick are hoping it is just something minor and that he can recover in time for next week.”
A Spokesperson for Strictly said: “Unfortunately, Nick Knowles sustained an injury during rehearsals and as a result, will not dance this weekend.
“As per the rules of the competition, Nick and Luba will receive a bye through to next week when he is hopefully able to dance again. Everyone at Strictly Come Dancing wishes Nick a speedy recovery.”
Nick and Luba had been due to dance the Charleston to Rain on the Roof from Paddington 2.
The Sun first told how Nick had injured himself at the start of the competition while changing a car tyre.
He was put under medical supervision and accessed during rehearsals.
A source said at the time: “If after the rehearsal the doctor thinks Nick is going to make his injury worse then he’ll be off Strictly for good.
“It really is the last chance saloon for Nick.
“The BBC are putting his health above everything.
“If the doctor thinks Nick is at risk of hurting himself then his Strictly dream will be over.
“Nick is being really positive as he thinks he will be fine but his welfare and health has to come first.”
He was handed a last minute reprieve and allowed to dance.
Nick impressed the judges with his American Smooth to Blur’s Parklife and scored 22.
As is tradition, the first week scores are rolled over and combined into the second week. Here’s how the leaderboard now looks after the combined scores
AMANDA Holden has been left speechless as Perrie Edwards gave her an X-rated gift live on air.
Amanda, 53, was joined by Little Mix star Perrie, 31, on the Heart Breakfast Radio Show on Friday.
Blonde beauty Perrie was promoting her brand new single, You Go Your Way, after embarking on her solo career, post-Little Mix.
But single to one side, Perrie decided to pop a little hamper together to aid Amanda with her upcoming 250 mile cycle, from Cornwall to London for charity.
Amanda was left gobsmacked by some of the contents, which included a tub of ‘happy bum cream’ as well as extra large premium nipple covers.
“It’s a hamper, we have comfort things, I think you’ll be excited about this…it’s bum butter. Nobody wants a sore saddle,” Perrie said as she shared the goodies with Amanda.
She continued: “And there’s a ‘Happy Bottom’ mini because you can never have too many happy bums.
“And some, which I think is arguably even more important than the bum butter, I’ve got you some nipple covers because there’s nothing worse, do you know what I mean?”
A taken aback Amanda questioned: “Are they waterproof? Premium nipple covers! Look at those! That is a very large nipple cover!”
To which hitmaker Perrie responded: “Premium! Only the best for you Amanda.”
Rude gifts to one side, Perrie also thoughtfully gifted Amanda a yellow poncho, in a bid to keep her protected from the rain on her cycle.
Amanda is set to embark on her cycling challenge on October 11.
She’ll leave from Cornwall before cycling through Somerset, Berkshire, Wiltshire, and Surrey to get to the Heart HQ in London’s Leicester Square.
And she’s be prepping in a very glam way, by riding a bike in the studio in her skirt and heels.
Amanda also specified that she’d like a bike with a nice basket on the front, for picking up some shopping en-route.
She said: “I want a shopper with a basket and a gel saddle because if I want to stop for snacks at the local Spar in Bude, I will be doing that.
“I’m going to need snacks for energy purposes. But do you know what, as I’m doing this my thighs are hitting my tummy flab, so at least I can knead away the flab with my own thighs!”
Speaking about the event, an enthusiastic Amanda said: “I can’t quite believe that I’m going to be cycling over 250 miles from my mum’s house in Cornwall to London for Global’s Make Some Noise – it’s a massive challenge!
“I’m told it’s not going to be particularly flat so I’m gonna have buns of steel by the end of this! Knowing that every mile I cover will help raise funds for those local projects providing a lifeline directly to those who need it most is what will keep me going.”
