People have been speculative at best over the alleged new romance blossoming between the newly-divorced Cheryl and One Direction's Liam Payne. 

Many (including us) have speculated that the pair could actually be together for some sort of publicity stunt, but as the happy couple step out for another date night in London, we may have to hold our hands up and say we believe it. 

The 32-year-old and her new toyboy were snapped grinning as they left Salmontini le Resto last night and Cheryl even donned a huge statement necklace that read: "Love." 

A bit on the nose Chezza, but okay. 

And to add even more authenticity to the pairing, the couple were joined by Liam's mammy who seems to have given the relationship her total seal of approval. 

The outing comes just a day after Liam posted a pretty gushing message to Instagram about his new lady for International Women's Day. 

 

Happy #internationalwomensday to my favourite woman in the world hope I make you as happy as u make me X

"Happy #Internationalwomensday to my favourite woman in the world hope I make you as happy as you make me X," read the caption of the pretty adorable snap of Cheryl.  

The news of the unlikely couple broke just two weeks ago with the pair having gotten closer in the New Year. 

Cheryl officially announced her divorce from French businessman Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini in December after months of speculation that the marriage was not going well.

Justin Bieber's Love Yourself describes a pretty messed up relationship and the pop star certainly doesn't hold back when describing his ex. 

Co-written by Ed Sheeran, the song paints a pretty horrendous picture of the anonymous girl in question and though the song's events could be totally true, it would be interesting to hear the perspective of the ex. 

So that's why YouTubers Yo Preston! and Kelly Kiara decided to cover the song with two sides of the story totally covered. 

Preston sings the first verse and chorus as Bieber sings it and then Kelly comes in with her own version of events that pretty much changes everything. 

"Baby you can go and f*ck yourself," goes Kelly's new version of the song and we are loving it. 

Listen to the amazing cover below:

Bette Midler may have been struck with the wrath of an angry Kim Kardashian, but she has been responding to the drama in hilarious ways. 

It all began when Kim decided to post a nude selfie to Instagram and then responded to celebs who went online to criticise her. 

"Kim Kardashian tweeted a nude selfie today. If Kim wants us to see a part of her we've never seen, she's gonna have to swallow the camera," read the tweet by Bette to which Kim took offence. 

The 35-year-old reality star responded by jokingly asking Bette to send nudes before adding: "I really didn't want to bring up how how you sent me a gift awhile back trying to be a fake friend then come at me."

However, the 70-year-old could take it as she replied: "I never tried to fake friend you. Looks like anyone can take a selfie but not everyone can take a joke."

Yas, Bette! 

Fans have been delighting in the sassy responses of the Beaches  actress and were only ecstatic to see that she had uploaded her own version of a naked selfie to Twitter today. 

It may be totally photoshopped but the snap encourages people to put their naked selfies to work and donate to charity when posting one. 

Now that is the way to handle a controversy.

Ah, remember the good old days when there was only one computer in the house and not only did it take aaaages to turn on, it also made that horrid (yet, funny) noise to hook up to the Internet?

Well, Fine Brothers Entertainment brought a bunch of teenagers in to try out the old Windows 95 and the results are… Well, the results are kinda hilarious.

Not only do they struggle turning the computer on, the also haven't a notion how to use it properly.

One good thing did come out of the little demo though – appreciation. Windows 95 was the beloved founder of the 'start' button, the recycle bin and Internet Explorer.

But as much as we love the oul' thing, we're so glad it's gone and we don't have to wait 30 full minutes just to get the Internet up.

Here we go! Another celeb has decided to show off her body in a nude selfie just like Kim Kardashian's.

We have to say, Kim's selfie sparked an uproar from both sides of the story and there's a vast mix of people for and against it. 

And the latest celeb for it? Sharon Osbourne.

Showcasing her banging body at 63-years-old, Sharon captioned the pic: "@kimkardashian you inspired me! #liberated #the talk."

Mrs Osbourne's racy snap comes after Kim herself called for an end to 'slut-shaming' and says people need to get over her old sex tape once and for all.

We wonder who'll be next to join the nude selfie band wagon.

Thousands and thousands of Irish people around the globe are marking the 1916 rising centenary in their own special way – but this Wicklow brewery decided to get creative.

Wicklow Wolf Brewing Company has just released their latest in its IPA series – Children of the Revolution.

Children of the Revolution is brewed with cascade, simcoe, columbus and amarillo hops that combine to give the IPA a citrus flavour with grapefruit, pine and passion fruit tones.

Speaking about the release, Simon Lynch, co-founder of the Irish brewery told The Mirror:  “We wanted to mark, in our own way, the bravery and vision of our country men and women who made possible the Ireland we live in today.

“Not only has Ireland seen significant cultural change in the form of religious tolerance, civil liberties and marriage equality but Ireland has also left a huge imprint on the world through its people, music and the arts.

"All of which came about as a result of those words read out on the steps of the GPO in 1916.”

You can nab this special brew in Molloy's, O'Brein's and other off-licenses around the country for €3.95.

Rupert Grint and Matthew Lewis are probably two of our all-time fave Harry Potter stars – and we kinda love them even more after hearing about the big prank Rupert has been playing on Matthew.

Matthew (or Neville Longbottom, as we like to still call him) revealed on Twitter last month that his former co-star had been putting food on his tab at his favourite restaurant for a number of months. Cheeky.

And when he was on This Morning today, he was asked to explain the whole incident:

"I saw Rupert for the first time in a few years and we were in Orlando and he told me he had been going to this restaurant, and I said: 'That's one of my favourite restaurants', and he's like, 'I know', and I said, 'How would you know that?' and he said, 'That's because I've been putting all my food on your tab for several months!' .. It could have gone on forever – I would never have known!"

Ah, how we wish Ron and Neville were still up to no good… Those were the days.

As if Louis didn't have enough to handle with his new baby and career, the One Direction star has just rescued a couple who were stranded abroad after a horror road crash.

Britsth tourists Rhys Skyes and Sarah Liddle were backpacking around Vietnam when they crashed their motorbike on Valentine's Day and Sarah was left with a broken leg which left them unable to fly home.

The couple issued a crowdfunding campaign to try fly them home so Sarah could undergo urgent medical treatment.

According to The Mirror, Louis heard about the appeal and donated a massive sum of cash to cover the costs of their flights.

Louis is originally from the couple's hometown of Doncaster, which may be why the appeal struck him as it's close to home.

Sarah's aunt Julie said: "Louis heard about our appeal to get Rhys and Sarah home and his mum got in touch saying how upset he was to hear about what had happened and how he would like to help.

"He gave a very sizable donation to the fund and we would like to say a very big thank you to Louis and his family for being so kind."

The couple launched a cash appeal after being told a special evacuation flight would cost £15,000 (€19,350).

Sarah's jouney back to health still isn't over but at least she's at home with her family by her side.

Usually TV stars have no bother finding a little romance in their lives – but not for Ollie Locke.

The Made In Chelsea star has joined the dating app, Tinder in a bid to find the perfect partner.

The reality star flies under the name Obba and kept his profile quite simple, just saying, "A Londoner working in TV and writing around the world."

According to the Daily Star Online, Ollie has a few steamy snaps on his profile in hopes a special person might swipe right.

One photo sees him relaxing in bed with his pet dog and another is of him pouting in bed again but this time he's topless.

Mr Locke came out as bisexual on the E4 reality show but has proven unlucky in love after a number of failed relationships.

Hopefully he'll find true love on Tinder.
