If we mentioned ‘Meghan Markle’ about a month ago, the chances are you’d scrunch your eyes up and wrack your brain trying to put a face to the name.

One royal romance and insane media storm later, however, and we ALL know who you’re talking about!

Suits star Meghan has broken her Twitter silence this weekend, to thank her loved ones and fans for their support after her romance with Prince Harry was made public.

Quoting Mahatma Gandhi, the stunning 35-year-old encouraged everyone following her to ‘be the change you wish to see in the world’.

“Sending extra love to Emily, Sol, Domi, Hannah, Sih, Doris, Jessy Scarlett and all of you who have been so supportive. I’ve missed you guys,” she tweeted.

Meghan has largely kept away from social media over the past month, except to raise awareness for political projects.

Her Twitter silence is totally understandable, too, seeing as she was bombarded with DEATH THREATS after being linked to Prince Harry.

Indeed, matters got so serious that Harry was forced to issue a press release confirming his relationship and calling for calm.

“Prince Harry is worried about Ms Markle’s safety and is deeply disappointed that he has not been able to protect her. It is not right that, a few months into a relationship with him, Ms Markle should be subjected to such a storm,” the statement read.

The royals went on to insist that ‘a line had been crossed’ and called for commentators to ‘reflect before any further damage is done’.

We’re glad to see that Meghan is receiving much-needed support at such a weird time.

Well, it's safe to say Enda Kenny isn't the most popular among the Irish people at the moment.

After congratulating Donald Trump on his presidential victory on behalf of the people of Ireland, Enda angered many of us, as we, in no way, wanted to wish Trump well.

However, now the Taoiseach has met with Vice-President-elect Mike Pence and praised him for knowing about "our issues."

After Mr Kenny met with Mike, he took to Twitter to praise the new VP.

"Had a really good conversation tonight with US VP Elect Mike Pence. He certainly knows Ireland and the issues that matter to our people."

Many were shocked and confused by this, and took to Twitter to vent their views:

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson has revealed she's had a year-long battle with a brain tumour.

The 44-year-old had treatment for a non-malignant growth in her pituitary gland back in January, and has joyfully revealed it has finally cleared.

However, the socialite told The Daily Mail that when she received her diagnosis, she feared for her life.

“I went to the doctors to talk about my latest blood test results when I got back from skiing in January. I said: 'What does this mean? Can you translate it?' And the doctor said: 'As I suspected, you have a brain tumour'.

“I got terribly frightened. I started thinking, 'I'm going to die, I'm going to die. I've only got a couple of weeks to live.' Stuff like that.

“I actually feel very lucky. My growth was non-malignant but it affected the production of prolactin [a hormone]. I’ve been with people who have malignant brain tumours so I don’t want to be like, “Hey look at me”.

“I have been luckier. I’ve taken medication and thankfully, it seems to have gone away for now.”

We're glad Tara has made it through that battle.

OK, so we admit that as a group, we are self-diagnosed beauty junkies… and PROUD of it. 

We are always on the lookout for cool or weird new products to add to our growing collections.

Enter: panda eyeliner.

During a recent Amazon investigation, I discovered the most adorable panda-themed liquid eyeliners, EVER. 

Now, I will admit, on the scheme of things, these are probably not the highest quality ever… but look how CUTE, though! 

However, you can justify this delightful purchase, as it will only set you back a reasonable €2!

Talk about the perfect stocking-filler!

It's safe to say that Kylie Jenner isn't shy when it comes to taking a scantily clad selfie.

Last night, the teen took to Instagram to share a series of new snaps promoting a mysterious new enterprise called The Kylie Shop.

The snaps showed the reality TV star in various states of undress, so it is speculated that the new shop will sell Kylie-brand lingerie.

The star added links in the captions to a brand new, blue-ticked @TheKylieShop Instagram account, where another link leads to a countdown homepage.

If the countdown is anything to go by, the new store is launching in less than three weeks, but gives no indication of what it might be selling.

The star already has one successful entrepreneurial endeavour under her belt in the form of her lucrative Kylie Cosmetics empire. 

Kylie is currently overseeing the development of her first brick-and-mortar flagship store, which is set to open this December in California.

The store will stock a full range of cosmetics previously only available online, as well as her new Christmas collection and exclusive Kylie merchandise.

He is, hands down, the funniest dad in Hollywood – and Ryan Reynolds has just proven why he holds the crown.

The dad-of-two recently sat down for a chat with GQ magazine, and he made sure to share some delivery room tips for fellow fathers while he was there.

Ryan has some golden nuggets of advice for all dads-to-be, and the internet has been rolling around with laughter ever since they were unveiled, over on GQ’s YouTube channel.

The cardinal rule, according to the Deadpool star, is to just be in the room. After all, as he so aptly puts it, you’re not Don Draper!

We’re a snap-happy generation, but Ryan points out that there are some instances where you should really hold back.

“A photo of your daughter, crowning, hanging on the refrigerator – that’s not going to help anyone,” he assures us.

You know, he's probably on to something, there!

It’s also important to remember that you’re probably the ‘least important person in the room’ – in Ryan's experience, you even come second to the air!

Ryan and wife Blake Lively welcomed their second child, a daughter, back in September. They are, of course, also parents to two-year-old daughter James.

If you had asked us before who we thought the Queen of pregnancy style was, the answer would have been simple.

We would have blurted out the name Blake Lively, because she is like a chic pregnant angel.

HOWEVER, upon further research, we have discovered a very close contender to threaten Blake's crown. 

Marion Cotillard may just be the most stylish pregnant woman of all time, and we have the evidence to back it up…

The mum-to-be announced her second pregnancy with her long-term boyfriend, Guillaume Canet, in September of this year.

Ever since the announcement, we have been faced with so many amazing maternity looks, we cannot even cope. 

Marion has taken to wearing simple silhouettes and dark colours, and typically rocks some statement accessories. 

For any of you gorgeous pregnant ladies out there, we suggest taking a leaf out of this film star's book!

You won't regret it!

Despite recently being named the richest British celebrity under the age of 30, it looks like Adele is going down the low-key route to marry her longtime love Simon Konecki.

The pair have a four-year-old son together, and Adele recently sparked marriage rumours while on her tour.

An insider told The Mirror: “Adele said she doesn’t want her wedding to be formal and show-offy.

“She wants it to be about who they are as a couple. Adele would happily have a small ceremony, then dish out the bangers and mash afterwards.

“She’s not tight – she’s happy to pay for everyone to have a great day – she just doesn’t want it to be stuffy.

“Adele is still on tour so she would be happy with a simple registry office and knees-up with her closest friends.

“It won’t be star-studded, either. She’ll invite all her mates she grew up with as well as old friends like Alan Carr and Sid Owen.”

Of course, many of her fans have voiced their opinions on social media and want her to have a big, lavish wedding, but to each their own, hey?

We're sure Adele will look and feel smashing either way.

The Christmas menus are in full swing, and McDonald's has just announced their festive foodie treats for 2016.

It wouldn't be Christmas without a Terry's Chocolate Orange making its way into the house, so the new festive McFlurry option immediately caught our eye.

Introducing the Terry's Chocolate Orange McFlurry.

According to the fast food chain, the tasty treat comprises of "soft dairy ice cream swirled with Terry’s Chocolate Orange pieces and chocolate orange sauce." 

The new McFlurry will be joined by the Festive Cheese Feast burger, the Spicy Chicken Winter Melt, Cheese Melt Dippers and a Chocolate and Banoffee Pie. 

While there has been no word yet on the Irish launch date, the festive menu is set to hit the UK on 23rd November, so hopefully we wont have long to wait, either.

As if we needed yet another excuse to eat Terry's Chocolate Oranges!

The traditional confectionery treat is clearly having a moment, as foodie Facebook page Planet You shared this since-viral video of, wait for it, a Terry's Chocolate Orange cocktail.

Yes, a cocktail. Lovers of alcohol and chocolate-orangey goodness, rejoice!

The cocktail comprises of melted chocolate orange, milk, Baileys, ice and yet more crushed chocolate orange segments.

The video has been viewed over three million times, and the cocktail is receiving rave reviews. 

We don't think we can wait for Christmas to try this one.

A few years ago, we only knew Black Friday from TV shows and movies, but in the past number of years, Irish retailers have hopped on the mega-sale bandwagon and brought Black Friday to our towns and cities.

And now, it's even come to our pubs.

Dunnes pub in Carrick-On-Shannon is giving away pints of Guinness for €1 next Friday, November 25.

But, you'll have to be in early, as the offer ends come 7pm.

Black Friday mixed with the black stuff? What more could you want?!

There have been some incredible responses to the election of Donald Trump, but we’re calling Lauren Jauregui’s as the most powerful to date.

The Fifth Harmony singer has come out as bisexual in an incredible open letter to supporters of the President-Elect.

Shared with Billboard, Lauren’s letter doesn’t hold back when it comes to calling out some of the uglier qualities that have been on display over the past weeks and months.

“You have, with your pure ignorance and refusal to understand the way the government and the world works, allowed a power-hungry business tycoon to take over the United States of America,” she wrote.

Just days after she was spotted kissing artist Lucy Vives, Lauren proudly declared herself as bisexual.

 

Wrote a piece for @billboard link in my bio if you care to read my thoughts

“I am a bisexual Cuban-American woman, and I am so proud of it,” she wrote, before going on to kick ass with a dedication to women everywhere, and female empowerment.

“I am proud to be a woman. Proud that the sex between my thighs provides a strength and resilience in me that only other women can feel, that my body curves in ways that allow me to create life within me, that my entire life is filled with adversity and doubt and people questioning my intelligence and my artistic potential and my expression of myself and my virtue and honour because I am too much woman,” she wrote.

YES!

Naturally, Instagram is hailing Lauren as a total hero this morning – and we are in total agreement.

The makers of Barbie, Mattel Incorporated, have revealed a brand new doll, and she is very special. 

The new Barbie doll was created to resemble the plus size model Ashley Graham, to enhance body positivity in young girls.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Ashley insisted that the doll "had to have her thighs touch. No ands, ifs or buts about it."

 

Come on @Barbie, let's go party!!! Thank you to my new and incredible @Mattel family for this honor! #beautybeyondsize #barbie #curvybarbie

As a result, the Ashley doll does not have the infamous "thigh gap" that many Barbies have become known for. 

Ashley also said that "it was important that the Barbie resembled me as much as possible."

 

Thighs touching, round hips, arms and tummy!! Thank you @Mattel and @Barbie for immortalizing me into plastic! #beautybeyondsize

A photo posted by A S H L E Y G R A H A M (@theashleygraham) on

"The thighs touching was one way to show young girls that it's OK for your thighs to touch, despite society saying that a 'thigh gap' is more beautiful."

Ashley Graham has become an important figure in paving the way for body positivity, and has popularised the slogan "beauty beyond size".

Keep slaying, girl!
