Mamma Mia! 3 receives confident update from producer

<p dir="ltr">Mamma Mia! Here we go again!</p> <p dir="ltr">Judy Craymer, the creator and producer of the beloved musical comedies, has revealed there could be a third instalment. </p> <p dir="ltr">In an interview with Deadline, discussing the<em> Mamma Mia! I have a Dream</em> talent show on ITV, Craymer shared a confident <em>Mamma Mia! 3</em> update.</p> <p dir="ltr">"It’s in its earliest stages... I don’t want to over-egg it, but I know there’s a trilogy there. There is a story there, and I do think Meryl should come back — and if the script is right, she would, I think, because she really loved playing Donna,” she said.</p> <p dir="ltr">Craymer’s comments come after a long line of remarks made about a possible third movie, with her saying in 2020 that it was always "meant to be a trilogy." </p> <p dir="ltr">Even though the producer said it's in the early stages of development, it’s unclear when there will be an official announcement from Universal.</p> <p dir="ltr">Familiar faces Stellan Skarsgård, Christine Baranski, Lily James, Dominic Cooper, Colin Firth, and Pierce Brosnan have all expressed interest in returning to reprise their respective roles. </p> <p dir="ltr">Craymer also revealed in her interview that she has come up with a way to bring back all the franchise’s favourite characters, including the iconic Meryl Streep. </p> <p> </p> <p dir="ltr">Bringing back every member of the franchise’s massive ensemble cast might be why the third instalment has made little progress in recent years, but Craymer remains confident that the next instalment will go ahead.</p> <p><em>Image credit: Getty/Instagram</em></p>

Mike Tindall's mortifying moment

<p>Mike Tindall, the husband of the late Queen’s granddaughter Zara Phillips, has shared the deeply embarrassing mistake he made at wife Zara's 30th birthday party.</p> <p>Tindall who is currently appearing on the popular British TV show I’m a celebrity …. Get Me Out of Here!, recalled the infamous blunder where he “slut dropped” at his wife’s 30th birthday party,.</p> <p>The birthday bash was ‘70s-themed, he recalled: “I was dancing on the dance floor, I had like flares on, full outfit but it was quite tight, nothing ever fits – rugby player’s bum and legs – so I was dancing with my mother-in-law and I did a sl*t drop in front of my mother-in-law,” he said.</p> <p>“Ripped my trousers, straight in front of her. It happened to be that the boxers that I had on at that time said ‘nibble my nuts’.”</p> <p>“As I’ve turned round, she’s gone, ‘I’d rather not.’ I’ve gone, ‘I’m going,’ and walked off,” he added.</p> <p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dnx-fDxStI0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>Mike married Zara in 2011 and the couple have three children together. Zara is 20th in line for the British throne, being the only daughter of Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips.</p> <p><em>Image: YouTube</em></p>

View from the hot seat: Mike Tindall's insight into Prince Louis' antics

<p>Going down as one of the most memorable moments from The Queen's Platinum Jubilee, Mike Tindall has revealed the reason behind young Prince Louis' cheeky behaviour.</p> <p>Tindall says the four-year-old prince had "complete sugar highs" during the Jubilee Pageant on Sunday after consuming handfuls of sweets behind the scenes.</p> <p>In full view of the world's media, Prince Louis was seen putting his hand across his mum's mouth, trying to shush her as she attempted to tell him to sit still, making a funny face and blowing a raspberry in her direction.</p> <p>Kate swiftly put Louis' hand down, before he did it again with his left hand.</p> <p>The little prince was excited throughout the parade, running up and down the seats, pulling his cousin's hair and eventually jumping onto his grandfather Prince Charles' lap, for a quick break.</p> <p>Tindall was photographed jokingly warning Louis that he was watching him from the seats above.</p> <p>Two days earlier Prince Louis stole the show during Trooping the Colour, pulling a series of funny faces as the rest of the royals watched a flypast of aircraft from the palace balcony.</p> <p>Tindall, also revealed the Queen's grandchildren and their families enjoyed a private lunch after Trooping, describing it was one of his highlights from the four-day celebrations.</p> <p>He spoke about the Jubilee and Louis' mischievous antics on his podcast, The Good, The Bad and The Rugby.</p> <p>"Louis, he was just wanting to have fun, and my two [daughters] are always mischievous, so it was trying to keep a lid on," Tindall said.</p> <p>"There was a lot of sweets out back, though, so they had complete sugar highs. It's tough for them. They're all young, so asking them to sit, because it was two 'til five or whatever, it's a long time.</p> <p>As any parent knows, you just do whatever needs to be done."</p> <p>Tindall was seated directly behind the Cambridges at the Pageant with his wife Zara and their children Mia, eight, Lena, three and Lucas, one.</p> <p>Prince William and Kate later joked about their youngest child's actions, writing on social media, "We all had an incredible time, especially Louis".</p> <p><em>Image: Getty</em></p>

My bum sort of slid over either side [of the pew] and Lena kicked the hell out of me for an hour," she said of her youngest daughter who was born in June 2018. </p> <p>"It just wasn't comfy at all, and it probably showed on my face."</p> <p>Tindall said she found it particularly difficult to be at ease while during Bishop Michael Curry’s speech, which lasted a little over 13 minutes. </p> <p>"It was just the general amount of time everything was taking," she said.</p> <p>"I think my face was probably caught the point when I thought, 'Right he's going to finish now' and then he went off on another little story and it was like, "Really?'"</p> <p>The royal and her husband welcomed their second daughter a month after the royal wedding, on June 18. </p> <p>Their eldest daughter, Mia, is five and Lena is now 15 months old.</p> <p>The couple sadly suffered two miscarriages before successfully welcoming their second daughter to the world. </p> <p>Zara Phillips is an equestrian and has competed in the Olympics - going on to win silver in 2012. She and former footballer Mike Tindall married in 2011.</p> <p>At birth, Zara was sixth in line to the British throne and is now 18th.</p>

The surprisingly normal way royals plan their get-togethers

<p>The royal family may enjoy the luxurious lifestyle that comes with being born into nobility – but when it comes to sharing news and planning get-togethers, they use the same method as any regular family.</p> <p>In an interview with <a rel="noopener" href="/itv.com/goodmorningbritain/news/mike-tindall-says-whatsapp-group-with-harry-and-meghan-helps-royals-plan-playdates" target="_blank"><em>Good Morning Britain</em></a>, the Queen’s grandson-in-law Mike Tindall revealed that the royal family uses a WhatsApp group to organise their gatherings.</p> <p>“It’s just what you do to try and set up get-togethers, or if we are going to something that is the same,” said Tindall.</p> <p>“If you are going to go, ‘Are you going to take the kids?’ Quite a lot of people have family WhatsApp groups. I don’t think it’s a new revelation.”</p> <p>Tindall, who is married to the Queen’s granddaughter Zara Tindall, confirmed that he found out about the birth of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan’s first child Archie Mountbatten-Windsor through the WhatsApp group chat.</p> <p>When asked if he has had the chance to see the baby, Tindall said: “No, we still haven’t managed to get together yet. Everyone seems to think that we’ve all been round but it’s just not that way is it?</p> <p>“Hopefully, we will get to see him soon, but it just doesn’t work that way. But at least he’s happy and healthy and they’re happy.”</p> <p>In an interview with <em><a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/royal-family-joint-whatsapp-group-13710808">Mirror Online</a> </em>last year, the former rugby union player said he was in WhatsApp groups with some of the royal family members due to his wife’s cousin relation to Prince William and Prince Harry.</p> <p>“Me, my brother, and then a few of Zara’s side like her brother Pete and the cousins are on WhatsApp groups,” he said.</p> <p>“I wouldn’t say we’re cutting edge, but it’s just easier for some reason on WhatsApp.”</p>

The heartfelt reason why the royal family wore blue to Royal Ascot

<p>The Duchess of Cambridge made international headlines for her heavenly Elie Saab blue look for the very first day of Royal Ascot.</p> <p>The dreamy ensemble was not the only blue look we saw the royal members flaunt during the annual ceremony – Queen Elizabeth, Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice and Zara Tindall all wowed royal watcher with their striking blue outfits.</p> <p>The strange occurrence is not at all common within the royal family – as two members being seen in the same colour can be considered as a fashion faux pas.</p> <p>In fact, royals make a conscious effort to dress in strikingly different outfits so seeing five popular royal family members rocking the same vibrant colour is an extraordinary and rare event</p> <p>However, it has been revealed the colour choice was on purpose – and indeed for an incredibly heartfelt reason.</p> <p>The colour blue is believed to be a favourite of the Queen’s, as she wears the shade nearly three times more than any other, according to <em>Vogue</em>.</p> <p>The monarch chose to don the hue for 29 per cent of royal engagements in 2012.</p> <p>Royal insiders suggest the beautiful blue tone worn by five royals during Royal Ascot this year is a nod towards their ultimate Queen and grandmother.</p> <p>The colour blue also has history within the British Royal family, as it is a shade commonly associated with royalty, art, military, business and art.</p> <p>Scroll through the gallery above to see the royal family members wearing heavenly blue during 2019 Royal Ascot.</p>

Zara Tindall reveals secret trauma

<p>She welcomed her second daughter Lena in June, but Zara Tindall has revealed she suffered a second miscarriage shortly after <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.oversixty.com.au/news/news/2016/12/queens-granddaughter-loses-her-baby/">losing her unborn baby in 2016.</a> </span></strong></p> <p>In an interview with the Sunday Times Magazine, alongside her brother Peter Phillips, Zara said the loss happened “really early on”.</p> <p>The Queen’s eldest granddaughter has previously revealed she suffered a miscarriage, but not her secret second heartache.</p> <p>“I think you need to go through a period where you don’t talk about it because it’s too raw,” she said. “But, as with everything, time’s a great healer.”</p> <p>She explained that going through her first miscarriage was tough as the pregnancy had to be made public, as is the rule for descendants of the Queen.</p> <p>“We had to tell everyone and it’s like, everyone knows — that’s the hardest bit,” she said.</p> <p>“That’s why I think a lot of people don’t talk about it because [a miscarriage] can happen early enough or it’s only your group of friends and your family that know.”</p> <p>But when Zara lost her second baby, she and her husband, former England rugby player Mike Tindall, were able to mourn in private.</p> <p>The 37-year-old equestrian said mourning was easier for her when the miscarriage happened earlier on in the pregnancy.</p> <p>“I think a lot of the time you’re lucky if it happens a lot earlier,” she said.</p> <p>“It’s something a lot of families are affected by but then, hopefully, a lot of the stories I’ve heard, they’ve gone on and had more children and they’re very lucky.”</p>
