Three months on, Nathan revealed the pair “amicably” opted to part ways – realising they were “better off as friends”.
Rosie had previously relocated to Scotland to move in with her now-ex partner.
The pair seem to be on good terms, as they still follow each other on social media.
During Big Brother, the duo developed a close bond which quickly evolved into a relationship.
Writing on social media, one said: “Anyone else feeling like Rosie and Nathan where told by producers to fake a romance cos wtf I’m sorry but I’ve seen better acting and kissing in drama class.”
Another said: “I’m not buying this Rosie and Nathan thing at all…”
While a third added: “Rosie and nathan’s romance is so awkward it’s giving me second hand embarrassment.”
However, 2023 housemate Yinrun Huang defended the pair, claiming their bond to be the real deal.
Yinrun exclusively told The Sun: “I’ve given them a name Natato – I think it’s genuine and I wish it is. I want to see the love in the house.
“I can tell from the way they look at each other and each other’s eyes, they can’t help but kiss each other.
The Sun have contacted Nathan and Rosie for comment.

A brand new batch of Big Brother housemates are living it up in the famous compound.
“I think it’s love. I’m happy to see more about it. They’re already thinking about parents, I think it will blossom outside because they’ll be under less pressure.
“And from family and friends, when they see that they have been through theBig Brotherexperience together, I think they will be more supportive to them as well.“
The star added: “I think they are genuine, I think it was Baked Potato asked Nathan when they were having the fire exit, it was a moment when they were already outside of the house.
“I think that shows sincerity from her side, and the way Nathan looks into Rosie’s eyes, I think that’s quite authentic.”

Showing off her stylish sense of style, Danielle wore a burgundy coat with jeans, while her hair was off her face in a half ponytail.
On Friday the TV personality said she was “really shocked” to receive the news and would need to have an operation to determine if it has spread.
The mother-of-five used the opportunity to encourage others to see a doctor if they have noticed changes to their skin or body which could be a sign of cancer.
In the emotional video, she said: “I don’t really know how to say this and I didn’t know whether to come on and say this but I just feel like I have to raise awareness about this happening to other people.
“Today I have been diagnosed with a form of skin cancer.
“And I just want to raise awareness for anyone who might think they’ve got something funny on their body, they see a mole that’s growing that’s not normal – please, please, please go to your doctor because honestly, you just never know.”
Danielle said the Macmillan nurses at the hospital has “really supported” her after she received the health news which had “really shocked” her.
She added: “Just honestly, not what I expected today. And I suppose not what anyone expects.
“But please guys look after your skin. Stay off sunbeds, wear factor 50. Just look after yourself because honestly you never know what’s going to happen.”
The appearance of a lump or discoloured patch on the skin that continues to persist after a few weeks can be a sign of a form of skin cancer according to the NHS website.
A new mole or a change in an existing mole may also be signs of skin cancer.
The glamour model has been open about her health issues in the past including revealing she had vaginal rejuvenation treatment after her pregnancies left her struggling with incontinence.
She also previously discussed how she felt “forced” to have cosmetic work done to her face after being trolled online about her looks.
During an appearance on ITV‘s Lorraine in 2018, Danielle read out negative messages sent to her online, one of which described her as “wrecked and trashy” and that she “looks like a bloke”.
Danielle rose to prominence as a beauty queen who was crowned Miss England 2004 and later Miss Great Britain 2006.
In 2007, she featured on the fifth series of the reality show Celebrity Big Brother.
She made it to the final three of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in 2023 alongside singer Gareth Gates and former health secretary Matt Hancock, but missed out on completing the course at the final stage.

4 days agoworld NewsComments Off on Bad language report sent to TDs after blazing Dail row between Mary Lou & Martin as ‘fit for purpose’ update considered
POLITICIANS have been sent a report on bad language following an embarrassing Dail spat between Mary Lou McDonald and Taoiseach Micheal Martin.
PAMary Lou McDonald said the Taoiseach called her a liar in Irish during a Dail debate[/caption]
Micheal Martin’s comments led to a Dail bust up
The Fianna Fail leader was accused of taking advantage of Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy’s lack of Irish as he fumed at Mary Lou McDonald: “Tá an Teachta Dála ag insint bréaga aris” – which translates to ‘The TD is telling lies again.’
Under Dail rules, TDs are restricted in what they can say about other deputies and should not accuse a TD of being deceitful.
Sinn Fein TDs roared abuse at the Taoiseach following the comment with Pearse Doherty shouting “disgraceful” across the Chamber.
The Ceann Comhairle was forced to her feet to end the row with Deputy McDonald later writing to complain about Martin calling her a liar in the Dail.
The Taoiseach then responded to these claims by writing his own letter to the Ceann Comhairle in which he claimed he “accused the Deputy of telling untruths” and not telling lies.
The Taoiseach’s letter also included a list of instances in the last Dail where opposition TDs used the word ‘liar’ or variations of the word without sanction.
Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy today scolded TDs over the use of bad language in the Dail as she looked to put the embarrassing spat to an end.
The Ceann Comhairle has now sent all TDs a report on the use of bad language in the Dail.
She said: “I understand the use of bad language was addressed or examined in 2010 and a report was drawn up by the then Committee on Procedures and Privileges and was circulated to members of the House.
“As a starting point, I will have that report circulated to all members and further have it examined by the Committee on Parliamentary Privilege to see if it needs to be restated and made fit for purpose of the 34th Dail.”
The Ceann Comhairle immediately had to shut down further attempts to reignite the row as Sinn Fein’s Padraig Mac Lochlainn fumed: “Is he not going to withdraw what he said?”
Deputy Martin also tried to get involved in the row again before the Ceann Comhairle scolded: “No Taoiseach, thank you.”
Ironically, just minutes later the Dail descended into another shouting match with accusations of name calling.
FURTHER ROWS
Labour’s Ivana Bacik was questioning the Taoiseach on housing policy when she accused him and the Housing Minister of not showing up for a debate on the issue last week.
Micheal Martin snapped back: “You had an opportunity to go into government and you didn’t show up.”
The Taoiseach accused the opposition parties of being unable to engage in a serious debate on housing without “name calling” and distorting what has been said.
However, the Taoiseach then rounded on the Sinn Fein housing spokesman Eoin O’Broin and raged: “The Deputy persuaded nobody with his codswallop of a set of proposals” in the election.

4 days agoworld NewsComments Off on Teenager repeatedly stabbed stranger who told him ‘calm down Harry Potter’ during argument on Scots street
A TEENAGER became “angry” and repeatedly stabbed a stranger who called him Harry Potter during an early morning argument, a court has heard.
The 17-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, lost his temper with Liam McKechnie, who was 21 at the time, at a bus stop in Princes Street, Edinburgh on March 17 2024.
AlamyA teen repeatedly stabbed a stranger who told him ‘Calm down Harry Potter’[/caption]
AlamyThe high court in Edinburgh heard the youth was wearing ‘large spectacles’[/caption]
The high court in the city heard on Tuesday how the youth was wearing a “large pair of black rimmed spectacles” when he encountered Mr McKechnie.
Prosecutor Margaret Barron told the court how the pair became involved in a “verbal argument” moments before the teenager struck his victim with a blade he had been carrying.
Ms Barron told the court about the moment that Mr McKechnie made a reference to JK Rowling’s boy wizard.
She added: “The complainer said to the accused ‘calm down Harry Potter’ after which the altercation began.
“During this altercation, the accused removed a knife from his pocked and stabbed the complainer to the torso. At this point Mr McKechnie and his friends were unaware that he had been injured.
“Some people attempted to break up the scuffle and at some point a pair of glasses worn by the accused fell to the ground.
“The complainer felt a pain in his chest area and lifted up his top to reveal a stab wound to his torso. He showed the injury to his friends telling them he had been stabbed.”
The story emerged after the youth pleaded guilty to a charge which stated that he repeatedly struck Mr McKechnie on his body to “severe injury, permanent disfigurement, permanent impairment and to the danger of his life”.
Ms Barron told the court that Mr McKechnie and his friends had been on a night out and were standing at the bus stop at about 12.45am on March 17 last year.
She said that both he and the youth were “unknown to each other” when they met each other at around 12.47am.
The court heard that investigators were unable to discover what triggered the investigation but had managed to determine that Mr McKechnie made the reference to Harry Potter.
Ms Barron said a witness told detectives about the comment. Speaking about the witness, she said: “The witness stated.. the complainer called the accused Harry Potter which made the accused angry.”
Ms Barron added: “All witnesses describe the argument as becoming physical.”
The prosecution lawyer said the confrontation continued a short distance away from the bus stop – Mr McKechnie was then stabbed again.
Ms Barron said: “The accused and complainer began pushing and shoving each other until at 0055 hours, the complainer collapsed clutching his body. The accused had stabbed the complainer again inflicting two further injuries to the complainer’s torso.
“The accused then ran off towards Market Street. The complainer was heard to say ‘I can’t breathe.’”
Ms Barron told the court that an ambulance arrived soon afterwards and Mr McKechnie was taken to EdinburghRoyal Infirmary Hospital and doctors operated on him, removing his spleen.
Ms Barron added: “His injuries were of a severe nature and without the appropriate surgical intervention his life would have been at risk.
“He will be left with permanent scarring at the site of his injuries and also at the site of his operative wound. His injuries were consistent with having been caused by a sharp implement.”
Police launched an investigation and managed to identify the youth who was arrested on March 20 2024.
The court heard that the youth was a first offender. Defence solicitor advocate Iain McSporran KC asked judge Lord Cubie to continue bail for his client ahead of a sentencing hearing which will be held later this year.
He added: “If the court ever needed an illustration of the foolishness of carrying a knife in a public place then this case is it.
“He appreciates he is in the high court for a reason and that the court is considering a sentence of detention.”
Mr McSporran said that if granted bail, his client would be accompanied with his mother to an interview with a social worker appointed by the court to write a report into the youth’s background.
Mr McSporran added: “I would invite the court to have all sentencing options in mind.
“He is a very different young man to the very young man who committed this offence.”
Lord Cubie continued the youth’s bail and ordered a criminal justicesocialwork report to be made available to the court.
He told the youth, who was wearing spectacles as he sat in the dock, not to “read anything” into the decision to grant him bail.
Lord Cubie added: “The nature of your crime to which you have been convicted of make it almost inevitable that you will receive a sentence of detention.
“I will continue bail but nothing should be read into that.”
The youth will be sentenced at the High Court in Edinburgh on April 1 2025.

Trailing by just a goal to the Bundesliga leaders thanks to Daizen Maeda’s late header last week, the Hoops have belief they could yet spring an upset.
Nicolas Kuhn insists Bayern won’t expect the tie to be over courtesy of Kane’s second half strike that split the teams after the first leg at Parkhead.
They’ll do it under the lights and in front of 75,000 fans – with the travelling support given a reprieve from Uefa after trouble on their last outing at Aston Villa.
Celtic are taking on Bayern Munich TONIGHT on Tuesday, February 18.
The match kicks off at 8pm UK time.
It will be held at the Allianz Arena.
Celtic’s trip to Bavaria is live on Amazon Prime Video.

John Marshall - JM EnternationalJack Whitehall returns to host the Brits, determined to make up for his last socially distanced show during Covid restrictions – which went with a ‘whimper’[/caption]
He felt that his run ended with a “whimper” because it was a socially distanced evening with no raucous behaviour.
“So it always felt like, due to circumstances beyond my control, I’d maybe gone out with a little bit of a whimper.
“I think the Brits 2025 is going to make up for that and be a really big night.
“When I first started out I was just like ‘Jack, don’t mess this up. This is such a big opportunity’. You don’t want to say the wrong thing and insult someone and then get taken off air.
“Then I got to a point where I was like, ‘It’s probably best now to not outstay my welcome’.
“And now, here I am, back again.”
It doesn’t sound like he will be knocking back many shots with Sam Fender or getting lairy with Sabrina Carpenter before showtime on March 1, though.
Jack added: “It’s quite zen backstage when I’m trying to get ready.
“I will probably be in there, just doing a sound bath or humming and trying to do some breath work to keep myself nice and calm.
“But then I go off like a coiled spring and bounce on to the stage.”

4 days agoworld NewsComments Off on I was bullied so much for my ‘Toucan’ nose that I spent 12 years saving £8.7k for surgery – it’s totally changed my life
A WOMAN has shared how she was bullied for her “Toucan” nose so decided to save up for a nose job – and the results have changed her life.
Devyn Aiken, 30, a paralegal in Philadelphia, shared a series of videos on TikTok about the procedure, which cost her £8,700.
Devyn Aiken shared how she was bullied for her nose so saved up for surgerytiktok/@doseofdevyShe was delighted with the results and claims it has changed her lifetiktok/@doseofdevy
Speaking to People, Devyn shared: “I was bullied a lot, especially in middle school, and it was just from guys.
“They would call me all type of mean names like bird, Toucan Sam, so much mean stuff … I was like, ‘Oh, my goodness. This is all they talk about — my nose. So if I change that, what can they talk about?'”
Thankfully she didn’t feel “ugly” but just that she had a “huge nose that I hated”, which she felt grew noticeably larger during her tween and early teen years.
She added: “The earliest I can remember wanting a nose job was 14. I asked my mum, ‘Can I have a nose job?”
Typically most doctors won’t operate on a face that isn’t developed yet, and Devyn said it took her years to save up for the surgery – which she admitted was a “straight-up vanity” project.
Deciding to take action at 30, she booked in for rhinoplasty with plastic surgeon Dr. Mark Ginsburg in November 2024 after researching numerous clinics.
In total it cost her $11,000 (£8,700), which she feels is well worth the money.
Devyn has now racked up 63,000 followers thanks to her TikToks documenting the journey.
Far from feeling any shame for getting surgery, she felt like an honest account of the recovery and results could be helpful to others.
Thankfully her family were supportive of her dream every step of the way and just wanted her to be happy.
Before the surgery, she recalls being ill with nerves and “vomited all night”, resulting in her sleeping on the bathroom floor.
Thankfully the surgery was a success, and although it’ll take a full year for her swelling to fully decrease, Devyn shared how it has already changed her life.
The earliest I can remember wanting a nose job was 14. I asked my mum, ‘Can I have a nose job?’
Devyn Aiken
She revealed: “I just feel so happy every time I look in the mirror. It’s literally life-changing … Now I can just shop in peace. I can go out in peace and I don’t have to worry if someone’s making a comment. I feel relieved.”
Two months on, Devyn also got lip filler to boost her confidence even more.
What are the risks of getting surgery abroad?
IT'S important to do your research if you're thinking about having cosmetic surgery abroad.
It can cost less than in the UK, but you need to weigh up potential savings against the potential risks.
Safety standards in different countries may not be as high.
No surgery is risk-free. Complications can happen after surgery in the UK or abroad.
If you have complications after an operation in the UK, the surgeon is responsible for providing follow-up treatment.
Overseas clinics may not provide follow-up treatment, or they may not provide it to the same standard as in the UK.
Also, they may not have a healthcare professional in the UK you can visit if you have any problems.

And it seems her followers have been equally impressed with her new look.
One person wrote under one of her transformation videos: “You look amazing! I completely understand why you had it done.”
Another added: “It looks so good & so natural. You’re beautiful, before & after.”
In the UK, rhinoplasty costs £4,000-£7,000 and there were around 1,950 procedures in 2023.
