News about Katherine Ryan

Two huge comedians have revealed they have signed up for Celebrity Gogglebox. The stars will be taking to the sofa to give their thoughts on the latest TV programmes for the Stand Up To Cancer special. Channel 4 has confirmed the two household names will be appearing for the first time in the episode which will air on Friday.

Katherine Ryan gives an insight into her daughter Fenna's christening on Tuesday as she shares a slew of sweet family photos.  The comedienne, 41, and her husband Bobby Koostra have two children together Fenna, two, and Fred, three. She also has a 15-year-old daughter Violet from her previous relationship with boyfriend Alex Edelman. In an update shared to Instagram, Katherine looked elegant in a white turtleneck top, with crochet detailing and wide leg trousers.  

Katherine Ryan has revealed the real reason why she gained weight in her neck during her pregnancy, which left fans convinced she'd 'had too much filler'. The 41-year-old comedian spilled the beans on what was really going on at the time during an appearance on Amanda Wakeley's Style DNA podcast on Wednesday. She told host Amanda:  'When I got pregnant with Fred and I had to take steroids so I gained loads of weight, but all in my neck strangely, because I took steroids and it just makes you gain weight in a strange way.

Katherine Ryan has revealed she never exercised due to the 'threat of male violence'. The comic, 41, told how she hadn't worked out in four decades - while hitting out at sexual predators and taking swipes at celebrity Ozempic users and the Sean 'Diddy' Combs sexual assault case. Speaking at the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards in London, she said: 'I, myself, haven't exercised once in over 40 years, due to the threat of male violence.'

The comedian, 41, claimed last year that there is a 'dangerous comic' working in British showbusiness. She hosted the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards in London on Tuesday and was honoured with a Feminist Hero Award for speaking out about the alleged predator. During her speech, Katherine revealed that a host of men she had worked with previously got in touch after her admission - all seeking 'proof messages' that she wasn't talking about them. 'So I had to copy and paste like a hundred times "Do you really think you should be texting me after everything that happened between us",' Katherine said as she revealed how she replied, sparking huge laughs from the female crowd.

Katherine Ryan looked incredible as she arrived alongside her husband Bobby Kootstra at the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards at Raffles in London on Tuesday. The award winning comedian, 41, has returned once again to host the ceremony in west London - for the fourth year in a row. And she made sure to dress to impress as she dazzles in a metallic strapless dress. 

Katherine Ryan has taken a swipe at male comics who spend months away from their families while on tour - as she reveals she will travel three hours to get home to sleep with her children. The comedienne, 41, who has two daughters and a son, said she 'tours like a mum not like a dad' and said her children don't like her being away. 'I'm gone at 3pm every day,' she said speaking on the Dish podcast, 'I tour like a mum, not like a dad.'

An Only Connect contestant has responded to online trolls after she was targeted with derogatory comments on social media. Contestant Danielle Cope who appeared on the new episode on Monday night, defiantly hit back at the naysayers, stating that she is proud to be a 'loud, fat, confident woman'. The BBC quiz show, hosted by Victoria Coren Mitchell, 51, returned for a new season and featured two teams: the Al Frescans, which was led by Danielle, and the Midlanders. 

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Some daughters look forward to receiving their mother's hand-me-downs, but Katherine Ryan prefers to pinch from her children's wardrobes. The comedienne, 41, wore a pair of eye-catching, thigh-high silver boots to a summer soiree at Magic Mike Live in the West End.  They belong to her 15-year-old daughter, Violet. 'I stole these from her,' she tells me at The Theatre at the Hippodrome Casino. 

Katherine Ryan turned heads in a quirky ensemble as she headed to a Magic Mike Live event at the Hippodrome in central London on Wednesday night. The comedian, 41, wore a sheer khaki skirt that revealed her toned pins as she cosied up to her husband Bobby Kootstra. She completed her look with a pair of eye-catching thigh-high silver boots and a plain black roll neck jumper.

The number of violent crimes has risen by 50 per cent in the last two years from 7,561 in 2021 to 11,357 last year, according to The Times. Sexual assaults rose by 10 per cent in the same period from 2,235 to 2,475, while sexual harassment cases doubled to 1,908. Labour's Jess Phillips, who was handed the portfolio for safeguarding and violence against women and girls, said 'no woman should have to plan her journeys by public transport based on where and when she will feel safe'. She said: 'Yet that is the daily experience for millions of women whether they are commuting to and from work, or arranging an evening out with friends. Getting on a night bus or a near empty train to go home should not feel like taking your life in your hands.

Katherine Ryan has claimed she won't take part in Strictly Come Dancing because she's not ready to chat on her husband. The BBC show has long been known for the 'curse' that befalls some contestants who end up dating their dance partner, despite some being already in relationships. And in an exclusive interview with MailOnline, the comedian, 41, noted that she would decline the dance show because she's not ready to be unfaithful to her partner Bobby Koostra - before quipping that it doesn't mean she wouldn't change her mind in the future.

The 75-year-old actor took part in the latest episode of the ITV culinary show and he was competing against comedian Katherine Ryan, 41, for Budget Week.  During Budget Week, each competing celebrity had to create a £3 dish using frozen, tinned, and pantry ingredients. 

The ultimate celebrity culinary contest returned to our screens on Tuesday with a brand new star-studded line-up - however ITV viewers have been left with a sour taste in their mouths. Fans claimed they 'switched off after five minutes' when the new season kicked off, blasting it as 'terrible,' and pointing out a kitchen blunder that left them 'feeling sick'.

Cooking With The Stars - ITV's answer to Celebrity MasterChef - returns for a fourth series with celebrities Abbey Clancy (second from left), Carol Vorderman (left), Linford Christie (second from right) and Katherine Ryan (right) all taking part.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: He departed from royal service in dramatic fashion nearly three years ago, resigning as chief executive of the Prince's Foundation following allegations that he'd discussed securing British citizenship - and a knighthood - for a Saudi tycoon who ultimately donated more than £1.5million to...the Prince's Foundation. But anyone who thinks that that was the last that they'd hear of one-time Buckingham Palace footman Michael Fawcett should think again. Not only are his services, as an 'events planner', much in demand - thanks, I'm told, to the steadfast loyalty of longstanding, deep-pocketed clients, who marvel at his attention to detail - but he's just trousered the best part of £800,000 in tax-free profit. Amid persistent fears that it's only a matter of time before Sir Keir Starmer's Labour Government levies Capital Gains Tax on the sale of 'primary residences', Fawcett, 61, has displayed characteristic adroitness.

Katherine Ryan turned heads in a plunging pink satin maxi dress as she attended the Cooking With The Stars premiere in London on Thursday evening.  The comedian, 41, is one of the celebrities taking to the kitchen for the new 2024 series of the ITV reality cooking show. She looked incredible in the pretty short sleeved dress which boasted white lace detailing and buttons down the front. 

The latest celebrity line up for the upcoming series of Cooking With The Stars have opened up on their motivations for joining the show. The ultimate celebrity culinary contest is set to return with model Abbey Clancy, presenter Carol Vorderman and comedian Katherine Ryan leading the glamorous contestants taking part. The celebrities will be paired with professional chefs who will mentor them, in a bid to transform them from amateur to expert in a matter of weeks. 

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: Stand on one leg, please, close your eyes and hum the Marseillaise. Now, without opening your eyes or falling over, your task is to invent a gameshow to sell to 120 countries worldwide. Your time starts . . . now. Ridiculous as it sounds, that's what comedian Alex Horne has achieved with Taskmaster, the TV format that began as a half-baked lark for the Edinburgh Fringe 15 years ago and is now set to enjoy its 18th series. Jack Dee and Rosie Jones are among the latest contestants, in a lineage of more than 100, including Noel Fielding , Shirley Ballas , Katherine Ryan , Bob Mortimer , Adrian Chiles , Mo Farah , Morgana Robinson and Dara O Briain . . . to name just a few of the winners. In the process, it has turned its creator into one of the richest men in the business. Last year Horne earned £7.5 million from his production company Shakey - an increase of £2 million on the previous year. And that's before a virtual reality game launches later this year, with a live stage show also promised.

Model-turned-comedian Michelle de Swarte, 43, left school in Lewisham at just 14 before she was catapulted to success on the catwalk. New BBC2 show Spent follows the story of Mia Sinclair, played by de Swarte, as she navigates life in her late 30s after the modelling work has dried up - and she's left homeless once more.

Dermot O'Leary has landed his own game show on UKTV's Dave, months after he missed out on replacing Phillip Schofield as full time host of This Morning.  Dermot, 51, is following co-presenter Alison Hammond's footsteps by spreading his wings and will front the series alongside comedian Katherine Ryan, 41.  The show, which is produced by GMB's Richard Bacon, will see the studio audience trying not to laugh while being entertained by a string of comedians, in a bid to keep a share of the £250K prize.

David Mitchell and Victoria Coren made a rare appearance together as they attended a star-studded bash at The Farm Shop in Mayfair on Monday night - 10 months after welcoming their baby daughter. The actor, 49, and Victoria, 51, made the surprise announcement last year they had welcomed their second daughter, June Violet, on October 26. And they were enjoying a night off from parenting this week as they headed to the party which was also attended by the likes of Katherine Ryan and Claudia Winkleman.

Katherine Ryan revealed that her husband Bobby Kootstra gave her her first orgasm as she spoke candidly on the NewlyWeds podcast with Jamie and Sophie Laing on Monday.

Speaking on the podcast they spoke very openly about their early romance and lifted the lid on their sex life.
