He must have been heartbroken when pictures emerged of ex-girlfriend Delta Goodrem and rumoured new boyfriend Nick Jonas earlier this month.

But now Brian McFadden appears to have put any feelings he may have had about his former relationship behind him by stepping out with his new girlfriend, the Irish reality TV star Vogue Williams.

The pair were photographed looking happy and loved-up as they made their way through Sydney Airport after arriving in Australia, where Brian is a judge on Australia's Got Talent.

Vogue, a DJ who shot to fame after starring in reality show called Fade Street, the Irish equivalent of The Hills, looked stunning in a simple yet stylish white shirt and blue jeans combination, teamed with a pair of brown wedge boots as she pulled along her suitcase.

Asked if she was enjoying Australia, Vogue told The Sunday Telegraph: 'I'm loving it here. It’s great and I'm seeing little bits of Australia.'

Meanwhile, Brian, who has two children with reality TV star Kerry Katona, looked trendy in jeans, denim shirt and pair of aviator sunglasses.


Keeping their heads down: The pair were first romantically linked at the end of April when they were spotted together at a club in Donegal


Brian and Vogue were first romantically linked on 29th April when the former Westlife star watched Vogue's set at a nightclub in Donegal, Ireland. And the DJ bears a striking resemblance to the star's former wife-to-be Delta.

It was reported that after their night out, the pair checked into a local hotel for the evening.

Brian split from fiancée Delta at the beginning of April, when the pair announced their mutual separation ending their engagement.

After the break-up, Brian posted on his Twitter page: 'I love Delta and always will. She is one of God's living angels.

'I thank her for giving me the best years of my life. Please give us time x’
And, after seeing pictures of Delta and Nick Jonas out earlier this month, Brian said he was happy for his ex-girlfriend.

He said: 'She looks happy. If she's happy, I don't mind. But there's a warning from me: If anyone hurts her they're dead.'


Sexy: Vogue wore a pair of tight blue jeans which highlighted her long legs, teamed with a white shirt

Vogue is a big star in her native Ireland thanks to her role in RTE reality show Fade Street, which follows a group of four girls living in Dublin.

However, in a recent interview, Vogue admitted she was slightly dubious about the programme at first.

She said: 'I thought it was going to be a bit like The Hills and that made me wary. I thought I would become an easy target, being on a show like that, and I really didn't want to come across like an idiot

Celebrity: Vogue is a big celebrity in her native Ireland, and is often seen attending various red carpet events


'I was really worried about it at first. But then I just thought if I didn't do it I would seriously regret it. It really was a big opportunity.'

And Vogue added she was very nervous about how she would come across on screen.

She said: 'I was really worried about how I was going to come across but I was actually really happy with everyone's reaction. Honestly, I was just being myself. I really liked all the people I was working with.

'At the start I was a little bit uncomfortable, I mightn't have shown that on screen. Sometimes I'd go home and think "Oh my God, I've no idea what I said today", because you do forget that the cameras are on you. But it was easy towards the end.'


Moving on: Brian split from fiancée Delta Goodrem last month. A few weeks later, she was seen out hand-in-hand with Nick Jonas

Cheryl Cole 'SACKED from X Factor USA... and replaced by Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger

By LIZZIE SMITH and BEN TODD

The big reveal: Steve Jones, Scherzinger, L.A Reid, Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell and Cole pose as they prepare to record the first audition show last month


Cheryl Cole is believed to have been sensationally sacked from the U.S. X Factor before the show has even hit TV screens.

Cole, 27, only started filming two weeks ago.

But according to reports in America, she has been replaced as a judge by Nicole Scherzinger, who had been due to be a co-host on the series.

Last night sources said Cole was dropped from the judging panel because producers were concerned her Geordie accent would be too difficult for an American audience to understand.


Experienced: Scherzinger had previously replaced Cole on the UK X Factor when she was seriously ill with malaria


She was also said to ‘lack chemistry’ with fellow judge Paula Abdul, according to U.S. gossip website TMZ.

There were suggestions last night that TV executives now want Cole to return to the British version of the show.

Scherzinger, 32, the girlfriend of Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, was formerly in U.S. pop band Pussycat Dolls.

She will join Simon Cowell, record boss LA Reid and Miss Abdul on the panel.


Delighted: Scherzinger leaves Los Angeles airport LAX yesterday with a wide smile on her face


The show is not due to hit TV screens until September, but in recent weeks the judges have been auditioning hopefuls. Cities so far visited included New York and Chicago.

After months of speculation, it was finally confirmed on May 5 that she was joining the programme.

With Cowell’s support, she secured a £1.2million contract. But producers included a get-out clause so they could drop her after the first series if she failed to win over viewers.

Furious Cheryl Cole snubs Cowell's offer of return to British X Factor after humiliating axe from U.S. show

By LIZZIE SMITH, BEN TODD, ANDREA MAGRATH, PAUL REVOIR and ALISON BOSHOFF

Low profile: Cheryl Cole, pictured earlier this month at Cannes airport, has gone into hiding following her sacking from the U.S. X Factor


ITV 'eager for her to return to British judges panel'

Has fled the U.S. and is back in the UK

Show co-host Nicole Scherzinger will take her place on judges panel in U.S.

Her accent stopped U.S. audiences understanding her say TV bosses


Cheryl Cole is ready to snub Simon Cowell’s offer to return as a judge on the British X Factor panel after being dumped from the U.S. version of the show.


Back-up offer: Cheryl Cole is said to be furious with Cowell and plans to snub his offer of her old job on UK X Factor


ITV is eager for her to return to their edition of the programme, with Cowell believed to be instrumental in the move.

However Cheryl is so angry at her treatment by American X Factor bosses – including Cowell – that she is now considering turning her back on the show.

Mrs Cole has gone into hiding following her devastating sacking from the U.S. X factor.

The 27-year-old was last seen in public on May 19 at the last auditions in Chicago.

Both the X Factor and Cole's spokespeople are still refusing to comment on Cheryl's unceremonious departure, however Cheryl is thought to have been informed of the decision by the network on Tuesday and is believed to have fled the States.

She is believed to now be back in the UK and is remaining behind closed doors - meanwhile Cheryl's apparent replacement Nicole Scherzinger was pictured strolling through LAX airport just hours before the reports emerged last night with a very telling smile on her face.

Simon Cowell is understood to be in a less than sunny mood though - inside sources today claimed that the show supremo is suffering from a 'bad migraine'.

Studio bosses had demanded immediate changes and it was decided Cheryl, who is relatively unknown in America, was dispensable. There was also concern that her Geordie accent would be hard for U.S. viewers to understand.

A close friend of the star’s said: ‘Cheryl is furious. This is another slap in the face. She moved to America in full public glare – and now she’s being asked to come back to do the UK again. She feels hurt and let down.’


Ready to go: Cheryl looked excited as she arrived for day two of the auditions in Chicago earlier this month


Nevertheless, ITV sources were last night hopeful she may still return. According to a senior source, ‘plenty of phone-calls are going on’. However, he admitted any deal would have to be done ‘bloody quickly’ as the auditions for the British series are due to begin next week.

One ITV insider said: ‘Of course we would be glad to have her back. She is Cheryl Cole.’

He added: ‘Would the British audience welcome her back? I believe they would. There would be a sense of this is where you belong.

‘But let’s be honest. She will have to decide very quickly. We are doing auditions next week.’

Changing styles: Cheryl arrived for the first day of auditions wearing a bright outfit and massive hair before toning things down for a more demure look as auditions continued


When Cole's role on the show was announced the former UK X Factor judge said: 'Cheryl’s perfect for England - she’s the nation’s sweetheart and they absolutely love her.

'But over here it’s Nicole’s town. You have to think of the audience and most of them would never have heard of Girls Aloud. Nicole’s great TV, has a huge following here in the States and people absolutely love her. Plus she’s beautiful and talented.'
This will not be the first time Scherzinger has worked as an X Factor judge.

She was brought in to replace Dannii Minogue on the UK X Factor last year while the Australian singer was on maternity leave.

Cowell then brought Scherzinger back onto the UK X Factor judging panel to replace Cole when she was seriously ill with malaria last year.

At the time there were press reports that Cole was furious with the decision and even texted Simon asking: ‘Why did you get her?’

TOWIE BOYS: Mark Wright and James 'Arg' Argent get playful with a poolside water fight in Marbella with bikini-clad girls

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Spluttering: Lydia tries to catch her breath after the unceremonious dunking as Mark grins


She famously pushed Mark Wright in the water in front of his guests after he banned her from the pool party he was hosting.

And after seeing these pictures, Lauren Goodger may be making a dash to Marbella to once again confront her flirtatious fiancé.

Lauren stayed behind in England while Mark jetted off on what was meant to be a 'lads holiday'... except he and sidekick Arg have spent most of the time surrounded by bikini-clad women, including his ex-girlfriend Lucy Mecklenburgh.


What will Lauren say? Wright chats to a his ex Lucy Mecklenburgh as Arg sips on a drink at the Buddha Beach club


Double standards: Mark seems to have no problem with his ex-girlfriend partying with the boys, while his fiancée is safely ensconced in England


Mark was also seen indulging in a playful water fight with Arg's on-off girlfriend Lydia Bright, who didn't look too happy to be drenched.

The boys were recovering from what sounds like a wild night, judging by Arg's Twitter updates over the past few hours.

He wrote: '1st night: T-shirt got ripped off me, Mark was paraletic (sic), Someone done a poo in my mate's suitcase and stuck a toothbrush up his bum TBC...


Enjoying the view: Arg looked thrilled with the view as he chatted to several bikini-clad women


'Mate got bucket of water chucked over him twice, Me and Lydia had argument (then made up). Shutters in hotel got broke.'

Arg's comment about on/off girlfriend Lydia Bright have further fuelled speculation their relationship is back on again, despite breaking up in the second series of TOWIE.

But he admitted the 20-year-old was in a furious mood last night when she was thrown in a pool while fully-dressed.

He wrote: 'Lydia just got thrown in the pool with her clothes on by all the boys! She really ain't impressed, Bad start to the hol.'

Bright fumed: 'Can't believe the boys pushed me in the pool after I spent hours getting ready. Was so angry, thank God Golden Tarts (beauty salon) fixed me up again.'

Meanwhile, back in England Lauren Goodger was working hard promoting her new tanning products line on This Morning.

The reality star appeared with several buff half-naked men to demonstrate her product.

Lauren was supposed to be jetting off on her own vacation to Tenerife, but has been stuck in London due to the ash cloud.

Queen of bling! Kim Kardashian's beau Kris Humphries pops the question with a '$2million ring'

By Emily Sheridan


Bling: Kim Kardashian flashes her 20.5 carat diamond engagement ring at LAX airport today


Reality TV star Kim Kardashian is ecstatic after getting engaged to boyfriend Kris Humphries.

The basketball player got down on bended knee in her bedroom last Wednesday with a huge diamond ring thought to be worth $2 million after a whirlwind six-month romance.

Kim flashed the sparkling ring as she went through security today at LAX airport.

The happy couple confirmed the news in an exclusive magazine deal, giving away all the details of the proposal.

The 30-year-old tells America's People magazine: 'I didn't expect this at all. I was in such shock. I never thought it would happen at home, and I never thought now.'

The New Jersey Nets player, 26, asked for her hand in marriage with a custom-made 20.5 carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond sparkler.

The 6ft 9in basketball star picked out the ring with the help of Kim's manager mother Kris Jenner.

He enthused: 'I just knew I wanted it to be big.'

The athlete proposed by writing 'will you marry me' in rose petals on her bed in her $4.8million Beverly Hills home.

After Kim accepted, the couple celebrated with the Kardashian-Jenner clan during a family dinner.

Kim told the magazine: 'Kris really didn't want a big celebration, but he had jokingly told my mom he'd be fine if there were mini-horses there.

'Later that night at the party, my mom brought out two mini-horses, covered in glitter, for us! It was hysterical!'

Big news: Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries announced their engagement exclusively in this week's issue of People magazine


After People magazine announced the news, Jenner Tweeted: 'Yippppeeee! So happy.'

She then asked Kim and Kris to give her more time to prepare for the wedding than her other daughter Khloe.

She joked: 'PALEEEEEZE GIVE ME MORE THAN 9 DAYS!!!!!!!!!! I AM BEGGING.....'

Kim's sister Khloe also added: 'I can't believe I was able to keep this a secret but now I can scream all I want about it! Kim is engaged!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!'

We've got a secret: Kardashian and Humphries were giving nothing away about their engagement the previous day as they dined out in Los Angeles last Thursday


Her older sister Kourtney wrote: 'My sister is engaged!!! I'm squealing with excitement! The princess has found her prince. I am so happy because @KimKardashian is happy!'

The couple started dating last December soon after Kim ended her brief dalliance with Canadian model Gabriel Aubry - Halle Berry's ex.

It won't be the first marriage for Kim, she eloped to Las Vegas with music producer Damon Thomas - 10 years her senior - when she was just 19, but divorced in 2004 after four years together.

Excited: Kim tweeted the news to her 7.6 million followers

Support: Kim's sister Kourtney wished the couple well
In divorce papers, Kim alleged Thomas repeatedly beat her during their tumultuous marriage.


The producer has vehemently denied the claims and accused his ex-wife of being 'obsessed with fame' in an interview with In Touch magazine earlier this month.

In 2007, she famously dated rapper Ray J - who featured alongside her in a notorious sex tape.

No idea: The socialite was spotted having lunch in Beverly Hills just hours before Humphries' proposal


Later that year, she started dating American football player Reggie Bush, with the pair going out on and off for two and a half years before splitting for good in March 2010.

Last year, she briefly dated Dallas Cowboys player Miles Austin for about two months.

Fans of Keeping Up With The Kardashians have long seen the socialite speak of her wish to settle down and start a family.

Height difference: At 6ft 9in, Humphries dwarfs his 5ft 3in fiancée


When her younger sister Khloe was planning her marriage to Lamar Odom just a month after they started dating, Kim was seen complaining in episodes it should be her and ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush getting married.

In a recent interview, Khloe said: 'I think it was hard for Kim when I got married. It was a wake-up call for her.

'It wasn’t jealousy as such - it was more, "Oh my God, my little sister is getting married." I was in a place she wanted to get to. It made her reflect a lot.'
