DIY SOS: The Big Build (be3, 8pm)
Nick Knowles and the team are in Eckington to help redesign the home of 17 year old Antonia who has a rare disorder called Ehlers-Danos Syndrome. Her joints regularly dislocate so she has to be fed through a tube. The team are hoping to build a functional medical space for her as well as a wet room and an accessible space for her to socialise. These episodes are always a tearjerker.
Everyone’s talking about… Gemma Collins calling out her friends on Instagram.
Poor Gemma Collins is having a bit of a rough time and seems like she can’t trust anyone. She took to Instagram to call out friends for tipping off paparazzi to find her and snap her when she’s out and about.
The callout may be in relation to recent photos of her in Marbella getting a massage and just generally having a good time. She can’t get a moment’s peace and it’d be nice if the snakes that seem to be present in her life would stop tipping people off. The girl just wants a massage.
