MYLEENE Klass took her brand new £100k baby blue G Wagon for a spin as she enjoyed a day of shopping in London.
The Smooth Radio star, 46, was spotted driving the flashy set of wheels around Hampstead High Street on Monday.

Loose Women’s Myleene was seen getting into her Mercedes after some retail therapy.
The I’m A Celebrity star looked chic in a stripped blue and white shirt, a pair of loose fitted jeans and a blue cap with oversized sunglasses.
The TV favourite flashed a big smile as she strolled down the street before jumping into her four-wheel SUV.
She was seen holding a small black shopping bag and wore a Chanel handbag around her.
She rocked the jaw-dropping ensemble as she made her way through London over the weekend to host her radio show.
The stunning star was head-to-toe in black, with black lace legs and a matching lace bodysuit.
The presenter accessorised the unique look with a black cropped designer hoodie and black trainers.
It comes just weeks after Myleene revealed what really gets her in the mood during an appearance on Loose Women.
Referencing Brooke Shields‘ autobiography, in which she details her thoughts on sex as a 59-year-old woman, Jane Moore put the same question to her fellow panelists.
Myleene, who shares five-year-old daughter Ava with her husband Graham Quinn, revealed what gets her turned on now she’s a busy mum.
The model explained that when it comes to getting in the mood for women, it’s a’ slow burn’.
“I think all these ideas of tequila and setting the mood and music, it’s not about those five minutes, it’s about the whole day,” she said.
“It’s about the cup of tea, it’s about kindness, put a shelf up and things are going to look way more promising for the evening.”
Myleene went on to say that being proactive about tasks in the home and looking after your partner and family is her idea of “foreplay.”
“It’s not just what goes on in the bedroom, it’s actually what goes on in your relationship,” she continued.
And while she acknowledged that society doesn’t find this idea as “enticing,” she said that putting time and effort into a relationship is the biggest turn on.
“It’s not all about lace and lotion, it’s about conversations, a cup of tea, and some DIY,” she said as she cringed at all the money she had previously spent on lingerie.

JESY Nelson proudly showed off her growing baby bump as she excitedly counts down the days until she welcomes her twins.
The former Little Mix star looked radiant as she shared a glimpse of her pregnancy journey, keeping fans updated on her impending double bundle of joy.
TikTok / @jesynelsonJesy Nelson gave fans a glimpse of her blossoming baby bump as she prepares to welcome twins[/caption]
TikTok / @jesynelsonShe looked love-up with on and off again R&B singer boyfriend Zion Foster in her recent TikTok[/caption]
She looked loved-up in a new TikTok video she posted on Sunday, as the pair danced together while showing off her HUGE growing baby bump.
Jesy flaunted a casual yet trendy grey co-ord set featuring a plunge bra and low-waisted joggers.
Zion wore matching attire sporting grey joggers, a white t-shirt and a camouflage print hooded jacket.
She captioned the video: “The only son we’re playing to our babies right now”.
Jesy opened up about her journey to becoming a mum in an Instagram Q&A.
Asked how she felt when she found out she was pregnant, Jesy replied: “Very very shocked. It wasn’t planned but I felt instantly happy as soon as I saw that I was.”
Responding to another question, the singer revealed her reaction to having twins, and said: “When I found out I was having twins Zion and me were shocked.
“Although a lot of our friends guessed it way before our scan because I was showing very early.”
They got back together early in 2024, but unfollowed each other in September on social media – and she had wiped all traces of Zion until sharing her pregnancy snap.
Jesy first found fame in 2011 when she won The X Factor with Little Mix.
LITTLE Mix announced their hiatus in December 2021 whereby the group clarified that they were taking a break to focus on individual projects and personal endeavours. So, where are they now?
Perrie Edwards
Perrie has been focusing on her solo career post-Little Mix.
She recently released her debut solo single, Forget About Us, which has garnered significant attention.
She is also enjoying her time as a new mum and often shares adorable moments with her son on social media.
Leigh-Anne Pinnock
Leigh-Anne has ventured into acting, landing a role in a major film project, ‘Boxing Day’.
She’s also been active in promoting her documentary on racial issues within the music industry.
Additionally, Leigh-Anne is balancing her career with motherhood, having welcomed twins with her partner.
Jade Thirlwall
Jade has been exploring various creative avenues, including hosting a podcast and appearing on several television shows.
She remains a strong advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and continues to use her platform to support various charitable causes.
She signed a solo recording contract with RCA Records in 2022, and released her debut single, Angel of My Dreams, this year, which reached number seven on the UK Singles Chart.
Jesy Nelson
Jesy left Little Mix in 2020 to focus on her mental health and has since embarked on a solo music career.
She released her debut single, Boyz, which sparked much discussion and showcased her new musical direction.
Jesy is also working on her first solo album, JN1, which is set to be released this year.
She left Little Mix in 2020 and went on to launch a solo career.
Her 2021 debut solo single Boyz, featuring rapper Nicki Minaj, debuted at number four on the UK Singles Chart.
She released her most recent single in August, a track called Mine that featured Zion.

A NORTH Korean hacking group accused of orchestrating the largest heist in crypto’s history have stolen a whopping £5billon worth of digital money from the West.
The shady Lazarus Group are said to be behind some of the most damaging crypto scams – and the stolen money is reporedtly used to fund Pyongyang’s nuclear and ballistic missile programme
Kim Jong Un’s goons in North Korea have been accused of stealing money through crypto scamsReutersHackers gain control of crypto wallets and rip all the digital money[/caption]
The group of high-profile, extremely skilled hackers have developed what experts describe as a powerful and sophisticated system that can breach security layers and steal money.
After ripping digital money, they then launder it through thousands of blockchain transactions to make the proceedings untraceable.
A major chunk of the amount, if not all of it, reportedly funds Kim Jong-un‘s cash-starved regime, which has been hit by many sanctions over the years.
In 2022, a UN investigation found that cyberattacks are an “important revenue source” for Pyongyang’s nuclear and ballistic missile programme,
Dubai-based Bybit exchange, the victim of the heist, confirmed the record-breaking crypto theft and said they lost £1.2billion.
Fraudsters were able to access the £1billion wallet and transfer the contents to an unidentified address.
Bybit, founded in 2018, holds a staggering £15billion in assets and offers users various cryptocurrencies.
This £1billion attack caused the value of Ethereum to drop by about four per cent.
Ben Zhou, the CEO of Bybit, shared a statement on X after the costly incident.
He said: “Bybit is solvent even if this hack loss is not recovered, all of the client assets are 1 to 1 backed, and we can cover the loss.”
The CEO described this crime as “the worst hack in history”.
It is also most certainly the biggest known theft of any kind, the previous being Saddam Hussein stealing a whopping £800million during the 2003 Iraq war (£2billion post inflation).
North Korea also stole an estimated $800 million in crypto back in 2024, according to Redbord.
In 2022, it stole an estimated $1.7 billion in crypto, according to threat intelligence platform Recorded Future.
Other major cryptocurrency attacks in the past have seen hundreds of millions of pounds taken from people’s online wallets.
A whopping £32million worth of Bitcoin was stolen from a Binance exchange in 2019.
The platform said hackers ran off with over 7,000 bitcoins and carried out a “large-scale security breach”.
Thieves also stole £210million in crypto from the exchange site Mt Gox, in 2014.
The digital money was stolen because of a loophole in the website’s security.
Fake North Korean IT workers infiltrating UK companies
SECRET spies from North Korea posing as freelance IT workers are plaguing UK companies to earn cash for Kim Jong-un’s sanction-hit regime.
Many firms are at risk of being targeted by fraudulent North Koreans who are actively applying to secure jobs on freelance work platforms.
A report by the HM Treasury’s Office of Financial Sanctions Implementations (OFSI) has warned that IT workers from North Korea are using tactics that include “aliases, false or fraudulent personae and proxies, to mask their true identities and hide links to the regime”.
Over the years, Britain has hit North Korea with a slew of financial sanctions including the freezing of funds and economic resources.
These actions are aimed at countering the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and ballistic missiles, the HM Treasury says.
Kim Jong-un‘s cash-starved regime has long been known to deploy cyberb tactics to steal sensitive information from nations in the West.
But highly-trained workers are now posing a greater threat of getting into the payroll of British companies as remote workers.
The unique cyber tactic is allowing millions of dollars to flow into a reclusive country like North Korea, only to aid its ballistic missile program against the West.
And it also threatens to wreak havoc in the form of cyber attacks.
According to the advisory from HM’s Treasury, IT workers from North Korea provide potential employers in the UK with fake CVs in a bid to secure employment.
Many such fraudsters often use bot farms run by middlemen inside a particular country who use remote desktop software that allows workers from North Korea to log in to a company’s internal servers – making it look like they are working from inside the country.
Others have been leveraging the latest AI techniques to impersonate foreign nationals and steal their entire identity.
Affected UK sectors include:
Information Technology (IT)
Electronic Money Institution (EMI)
Money Service Business (MSB)
Professional Services
Cryptocurrency

2 weeks agoBlogsComments Off on I’m a DIY expert and you’re painting your fence wrong – 75p item is a saviour
AS spring approaches, many homeowners are turning their attention to sprucing up their gardens
From weeding the flower beds to trimming the hedge and planting some hardy flowers, there’s plenty that can be done already.
AlamyA DIY pro says there’s a cheaper alternative to using a brush for painting your fence[/caption]
And your fence may also need some sprucing up after a cold and wet winter.
Whilst the traditional paint brush may be your go-to for painting fences, a DIY expert is recommending a surprising alternative that will save you time and money.
Simon Wardle, owner of fencing supplier, Armstrong Cheshire, is advising homeowners to ditch paint brushes which can lead to aching arms and uneven coverage.
Instead, the DIY pro recommends using a simple dish sponge.
He says: “The flexibility and porousness of a sponge makes it the perfect tool for painting your fence.
“It can mold around and reach into any nooks and indentations in the wood, allowing for smooth coverage even on the most textured fence panels.”
The repetitive motion that comes with brush painting can be a real physical challenge and cause significant aches and pains.
But, according to Simon, using a sponge can substantially reduce the strain on your arms.
“Using a sponge significantly reduces the physical strain associated with traditional brush application”, he adds.
“Their lighter weight and efficient coverage minimises repetitive motions, resulting in a more comfortable and productive job.”
Not only is sponge-painting easier on the arms, it’s also much quicker and far more affordable.
At Tesco, you can grab a six-pack of sponges for just 75p, whilst a fence paint brush can be anywhere from £5-15.
If you’re looking to tackle this outdoor task, Simon also offers up additional tips to get the best results.
He says: “Using a primer will protect the fence from weather damage and create a strong bond between wood and paint, ensuring the paint adheres better and lasts longer.
“Use a power washer or a stiff-bristle brush to remove dirt and debris from the surface, as this prevents future peeling or blistering.
“Always give your fence a second layer to enhance the colour and extend the life of your paint job.”

CELTIC are aiming to bounce back from Easter Road disappointment when hosting Aberdeen on Tuesday.
It’s now just one win from their last four games for Brendan Rodgers’ men after their loss to Hibs and they’ll be hoping home comforts will see them return to winning ways.
SunSport betting experts have previewed the game and selected the best bets, tips and exclusive sign-up bonuses from our leading betting partners.
Nobody can argue that Daizen Maeda has been Celtic’s standout player this season, with Nicolas Kuhn having a decent start to the season and Alistair Johnston the only other to run him close.
Nine goals and three assists in his last six starts is a phenomenal return and whether playing from the left or through the middle, he’s constantly finding himself with chances to score.
Those numbers could probably be higher when you consider he had an equaliser chalked off on Saturday and two golden chances at the Allianz.
Remains terrific value in the scoring markets, too….

A NEW tool will make it easier for renters to complain about ‘criminal’ landlords and claim compensation.
The new platform will allow tenants to report problems from mould and safety issues to unfair fees and missing deposits.
GettyRenters will see a huge increase in their rights this year and new avenues to complain[/caption]
The “My Housing Issue” Gateway, designed by the TDS charitable foundation, will be a one-stop platform for private sector renters to raise issues.
It will signpost tenants to information about their rights and encourage the early resolution of disputes.
Where disputes are not rectified in a timely manner it will also tell renters how to escalate their complaints.
Additionally 48 per cent wanted clearer information on how to make a complaint.
Dr Jennifer Harris, head of policy and research at TDS Group said: “Tenants are hungry for better, easy to access information to enforce their rights and hold criminal landlords to account. The gateway will do just that, ensuring renters know where to go for the help they need, when they need it.
“Empowering tenants like this will be vital if the government’s ambitions of a better private rented sector are to become a reality.”
The platform has been launched ahead of the passing of the Renters’ Rights Bill, which will greatly increase the rights of private-sector tenants.
When passed the bill is expected to end fixed-term tenancies, introduce a decent home standard, establish a new ombudsman and protect families in receipt of benefits from discrimination.
It will also end the practise of tenants being forced from their homes under Section 21 notices, also known as “no fault” evictions.
The bill is expected to become law in late summer or autumn and will increase the obligations on landlords to address issues in a timely manner.
Dan Wilson Craw, deputy chief executive at Generation Rent, said: “One of the biggest barriers to improving private rented homes is the sheer number of bodies that play a role in enforcing tenant protections, and the confusion this creates among renters themselves.
“As the government implements the reforms currently going through parliament it is essential that private renters can access free, clear and useful resources and information. This new gateway offers tenants an easy-to-use tool, tailored to their needs – empowering them to make their next moves informed and with confidence.”
There are already many rules landlords need to follow and if they don’t renters could be entitled to compensation.
These include obligations to ensure properties are mould-free and to complete repairs in a timely manner.
If your landlord has failed to do this you could be entitled to have a proportion of your rent refunded.
There are also strict rules on the fees landlords can charge and how they should manage your money, including your deposit.

A NEW train service launching next year will connect two seaside towns in Cornwall for the first time.
Soon holidaymakers and locals in Cornwall will be able to board an hourly service from Newquay to Falmouth.
AlamyNewquay (pictured) and Falmouth will be connected by a direct train service for the first time in their history next year[/caption]
AlamyThe new direct journey will call at six stations, including Newquay, Par, St Austell, Truro, Penryn and Falmouth[/caption]
The new train route will run direct trains between the coasts for the first time, according to Network Rail.
Currently, Brits who want to take a train from Newquay to Falmouth need to change services in St Austell.
This involves boarding both a bus and a train, with public transport journeys taking over two hours.
Newquay is one of Cornwall‘s most popular seaside towns and is a known surfing hotspot.
While Falmouth isn’t as well known as Newquay, the charming coastal town does have a picturesque harbour.
Construction work on the new route has already started, with 500 metres of new track and a new crossing being installed at Newquay Train Station where a second platform is being built.
The new direct journey will call at six stations, including Newquay, Par, St Austell, Truro, Penryn and Falmouth.
When the services launch in 2026, they will run every hour.
Other details, such as ticket prices and departure times, are yet to be announced.
The new train route is part of a Mid Cornwall Metro Project, which is seeking to improve rail journeys in the county.
£56.8million is being pumped into the Mid Cornwall Metro Project, most of which has come from the Government’s Levelling Up Fund.
Improvements to five Cornish train stations will also take place under the plans, including Newquay, Roche, Bugle, Par and Penryn.
The new direct train route and improvement work to the stations will see an additional 700,000 seats per year added
Bogdan Lupu, the project director from Network Rail, told the BBC: “It’s a single track line, so we can’t run a lot of trains.
“The loop is going to enable us to pass more trains so we’ll be able to run a train every hour.
“In the summer, you’re going to be able to run both local trains and London-Paddington trains to Newquay, which is going to be great for the local community and for visitors. It will change the face of Newquay.”
Elsewhere in the UK, PortisheadRailway Station could reopen within the next two years, more than seven decades after its previous railway hub was demolished.
And a new £96million train station is set to open in trendy UK neighbourhood compared to New York.
Liverpool Baltic Station will be located in the city’s Baltic Triangle, which has previously been likened toNew YorkCity’s meatpacking district.
Sun Travel's favourite train journeys in the world
Sun Travel's journalists have taken their fare share of train journeys on their travels and here they share their most memorable rail experiences.
Davos to Geneva, Switzerland
“After a ski holiday in Davos, I took the scenic train back to Geneva Airport. The snow-covered mountains and tiny alpine villages that we passed were so beautiful that it felt like a moving picture was playing beyond the glass.” – Caroline McGuire
Tokyo to Kyoto by Shinkansen
“Nothing quite beats the Shinkansen bullet train, one of the fastest in the world. It hardly feels like you’re whizzing along at speed until you look outside and see the trees a green blur. Make sure to book seat D or E too – as you’ll have the best view of Mount Fuji along the way.” Kara Godfrey
London to Paris by Eurostar
“Those who have never travelled on the Eurostar may wonder what’s so special about a seemingly ordinary train that takes you across the channel. You won’t have to waste a moment and can tick off all the top attractions from the Louvre to the Champs-Élysées which are both less than five kilometres from the Gare du Nord.” – Sophie Swietochowski
Glasgow to Fort William by Scotrail
“From mountain landscapes and serene lochs to the wistful moors, I spent my three-hour journey from Glasgow to Fort William gazing out the window. Sit on the left-hand side of the train for the best views overlooking Loch Lomond.” – Hope Brotherton
Beijing to Ulaanbatar
“The Trans-Mongolian Express is truly a train journey like no other. It starts amid the chaos of central Beijing before the city’s high-rises give way to crumbling ancient villages and eventually the vast vacant plains of Mongolia, via the Gobi desert. The deep orange sunset seen in the middle of the desert is among the best I’ve witnessed anywhere.” – Ryan Gray
