‘There’s still hope for her, but it’s just decreasing by the minute.’

LOVE Island All Stars’ Curtis Pritchard has let slip that he cut off his mum Debi after a huge fallout.

Curtis, 28, made the revelation about his secret family feud during a heated argument in the villa with Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.

Ekin had told her love interest how she ‘wished her parents were there’, before Curtis blurted out that he’d stopped talking to his mum for a period.

The Turkish actress had fumed: “F*** you if you don’t think I’m authentic… I wish my parents were here.”

Curtis strangely replied: “I cut my mum off for a time. But we’re back in contact now.”

The conversation about Debi went no further, with Ekin simply telling him: “You’re such a good man.”

They then shared a passionate kiss.

Fans were left perplexed by Curtis’s seemingly random comment about his bust-up with Debi.

Writing on X, one viewer asked: “Why did Curtis start chatting about his mum????”

Another added: “Not Curtis saying in the middle of the argument ‘I cut my mum off’ then snogging Ekin.”

Debi has always publicly thrown her support behind Curtis and his former Strictly Come Dancing star brother AJ.

However, during Curtis’ first stint in the Love Island villa, she broke down on live TV while discussing his on-screen break-up with Amy Hart.

Amy was so upset by Curtis’ treatment of her that she was whisked off to see show psychologists and later quit.

Television watchdog Ofcom was also hit with almost 200 complaints.

Appearing on This Morning, Debi had to be handed a tissue as she said: “I’ve seen it so many times but to feel Curtis’s pain and, to not even realise the pain Amy is going through, and Amy’s parents, it’s just so traumatic.”

AJ, meanwhile, branded Curtis “brutal”, saying: ‘‘For me Curtis is Curtis and he’s so honest.

“Sometimes a little too brutally honest the way he let her down, but the thing is he was on holiday getting sunburnt, eating too much, and everything’s done for him, so it was that kind of hotel holiday romance.”

DEATH THREATS

Debi later revealed she had received death threats after Curtis dumped Amy on the ITV2 show.

Two years later, she wrote in New! magazine: “Initially, Curtis coupled up with Amy and he was getting so much love, but my mother’s instinct told me it wasn’t going to work out. It took a turn when he decided to break up with her.

“I got lots of terrifying messages telling me I should die, and Curtis should die. It took me by surprise – as a mum, it was hard to deal with and it made it cry.”

Debi added: “It would have been easy for Curtis to stick with Amy and maintain his popularity, but he wasn’t compromising himself for the sake of a television show and I was proud of him for doing the right thing.”

It is unclear when exactly Curtis cut off contact with his mum but, in 2021, he did a joint newspaper interview with her.

However, Curtis stressed that does not ‘look for Debi’ in potential girlfriends, who has a “strong personality”.

He told The Mirror: “Mum is grounded. She is your rock, she gave birth to you, but I never take that into my relationships and think, ‘I’m looking for my mum’.

“Definitely a good strong personality, characters like Mum, so maybe a little bit to be fair.”

Debi, meanwhile, admitted: “I give my honest opinion on everything.

“But most of the time I just listen because they have their own answers.”

She added: “These have been challenging times, but the answers to your questions are always within yourselves.”

BACK ON TRACK

In November last year, Curtis proved that his and Debi’s relationship is in a positive place.

The professional dancer shared a picture of himself, his mum and his dad Adrian on Instagram after they attended a 70s-themed party together.

Curtis captioned the shot: “Taking it back to the hippie era with mum and dad last night. #peace and #love.”

One follower told him: “Gorgeous photos, memories forever.”

Curtis and AJ later went on to join Debi and Adrian for the Boxing Day swim on Brighton Beach.

The family posed together on the chilly beach in their dressing gowns.

LONDON Stansted will get five new flight routes with low-cost carrier Ryanair, including services to a trending travel destination.

Despite the low-cost carrier threatening to scrap routes across airports in Europe, the airline has added several new services to its summer 2025 schedule from London Stansted Airport.

Flights between London Stansted and Reggio Calabria will launch next month[/caption]

The airline will be operating new routes from London Stansted to Reggio Calabria in Italy, Clermont-Ferrand in France, Münster and Lübeck in Germany and Linz in Austria.

Flights to Reggio Calabria in Italy will launch on February 3, with the twice-weekly service operating every Sunday and Wednesday.

Flights take three hours, with one-way fares from just £14.99.

The lesser-visited Italian region was named a trending travel destination for 2025 by a team of experts thanks to its cheaper prices.

Flights to Clermont-Ferrand in France will launch on March 30, with the twice-weekly service operating every Sunday and Wednesday.

Sunday services will depart London Stansted at 7am before landing in France at 9.40am local time.

The flights will then depart the French airport at 10am, touching down in the UK at 10.50am.

Flight times will operate slightly later on the Wednesday service, with Sun Online Travel finding one-way fares from £20.65.

Münster services will also launch on March 30, with the route operating three times a week every Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday.

Flights take just one hour and 15 minutes, with prices from £16.99 for one-way fares.

Lübeck, another city in the north of Germany, is also set to get new flights from London Stansted.

Flights will launch on April 1 and will operate every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

One-way fares start from £16.91, with flight times differing each day.

A new route will also operate between London Stansted and Linz, a city in Upper Austria.

Flights to Linz will begin operating on February 3, with services flying between the two destinations every Monday and Friday.

Sun Online Travel have found one-way fares from £19.99.

Ryanair will add an additional Boeing 737 aircraft at London Stansted to accommodate the new routes, taking its London based fleet to 56 aircraft.

Airline boss, Michael O’Leary, said: “While we’re excited to announce these new routes and increased frequencies from London, we could expand even more rapidly throughout the UK.

“However, Rachel Reeves’s decision to raise APD taxes undermines growth potential, particularly at regional airports.

“This short-sighted policy will have long-lasting effects on the UK’s aviation sector and regional economies.”

Last year, the airline tycoon slammed Rachel Reeves’ “idiotic” decision to bump the tax on economy seats to European hotspots by 15 per cent.

In the budget, the Chancellor announced flights across the continent will now incur £15 of duty charges – increasing it by £2.

The low-cost airline has also threatened to axe services from airports in both France and Spain.

DO you want to do more of the things which make you happy this year? 

Download this tool to help you do one new thing each week in 2025 – from trying a new sport to writing poetry.

The digital spin the wheel game gives you an outcome of a small act in numerous categories, including health, social life and personal finances. 

Sync it up with your phone calendar and a reminder to complete your task will ensure nothing is forgotten. 

New activities include donating blood, trying pottery and meal planning. 

The motivating tool comes after a poll of 2,000 adults revealed the top 50 actions and experiences they want to encounter more often this year, with receiving good news top of the list (48 per cent). 

Others want to make time for exercise (29 per cent), hobbies (27 per cent) and being creative (17 per cent).

Ash Schofield, CEO of giffgaff, which commissioned the research, said: “It’s clear people want to see and do more this year, and actively make time for themselves and those close to them.

“Whether it’s 10 minutes a day dedicated to a hobby, or spontaneous calls with friends or family – these little acts can make a big difference.

“Social lives seem to play a big part of the top 50 list, including dates with partners, friends and relatives and unexpected texts from loved ones.”

The research also found many want to be on the receiving end of hugs from loved ones (29 per cent), meaningful conversations (17 per cent) and thoughtful, unexpected text messages (16 per cent). 

When it comes to finances, 29 per cent are keen for opportunities to make more savings on shopping and bills, while 16 per cent would like to see more generosity from businesses like discounts and freebies. 

And the aim of doing more of these things is simply to feel good (62 per cent) and improve their mood (56 per cent). 

To make time to tick stuff off, 32 per cent plan to set small goals and targets while 31 per cent aim to book stuff in-advance, such as catch ups with friends and family. 

People would prefer to do more of the things they want to do (37 per cent) this year, than those they need to do (18 per cent).

Despite hoping to put aside an hour and 45 minutes a week to focus on such activities and goals, 43 per cent cite a lack of time as the top barrier. 

Decreased motivation (36 per cent), being stuck in a rut of a routine (34 per cent) and a lack of confidence (26 per cent) were also hurdles. 

Of those polled, via OnePoll, 46 per cent have goals for 2025 – an average of four each – typically in the areas of physical health (62 per cent), personal finance (55 per cent) and family (44 per cent). 

Similarly, 86 per cent think it’s important to make time for the things which have a positive impact on their wellbeing.

In terms of acts of kindness from others, being made a cup of tea leaves 38 per cent in a good mood for mere minutes, but an unexpected gift or flowers results in days of positivity (31 per cent). 

And 85 per cent admitted that if someone has done something for them, they’re more likely to do the same in return. 

Ash Schofield, for giffgaff, which is offering its customers the freedom to flex the cost of their data allowance each month to suit budget, added: “The research suggests it’s the year for ‘me’, with people hoping to commit time to themselves, be it for relaxing or ticking things off their bucket list.

“Personal finance is high on the agenda, with almost a third wishing for no surprise bills this year – this is something we hope to help people avoid, with no-mid contract price rises.

“It’s great to see almost a fifth (19 per cent) will use their phone in a positive way to help them do that, by setting reminders to achieve their goals.”

BRIGHTON have rejected a whopping £75million bid from Al-Nassr for Kaoru Mitoma.

The Saudi side saw an opening bid of £54m knocked back on Thursday before returning with their eye-watering offer for the 27-year-old.

But the Seagulls stood firm on their insistence that the winger was not for sale with Mitoma not keen on a move out of Europe.

The Japanese international has become a top star for Brighton since his arrival on the south coast in 2021.

The winger joined from Japanese side Kawasaki Frontale for a reported £2.7m back then.

And he has since made 92 appearances for the Premier League club.

Mitoma, who wrote a university thesis on dribbling past his opponents, has been in great form for Fabian Hurzeler‘s side this season.

Across 23 Premier League appearances he has scored five goals and registered three assists.

Al-Nassr are pursuing the signature of another Premier League star too.

Aston Villa‘s Jhon Duran appears to be on the verge of a £65m move to Cristiano Ronaldo’s current employers.

The Villa striker, 21, had been linked to a move within the Premier League but now seems to be heading to the Middle East to make the next step in his career.

Al-Nassr have also shown interest in Manchester City’s Mateo Kovacic, but a deal is thought to be difficult to complete.
