TWO of Liverpool’s top attractions that welcome millions of tourists every year will close to make way for a £58million renovation project.
The Maritime Museum and the International Slavery Museum in Liverpool will close to undergo a huge multi-million-pound revamp.
Both waterfront museums are popular with holidaymakers, with millions of visitors flocking through their doors every year.
In 2023/24, more than 2.5million people visited Liverpool’s Maritime Museum, while roughly 390,000 tourists headed to the International Slavery Museum.
The welcome space inside the Maritime Museum, which first opened to the public in 1986, will be improved.
Improvement work on the International Slavery Museum, which opened in 2007 to mark 200 years of British legislation to abolish the transatlantic slave trade, has yet to be revealed.
The museums will also be connected to each other under the plans.
Planning permission was obtained back in October, with the Labour government approving £10million worth of funding earlier this week.
This brings the total cost of the huge makeover to £58million.
A computer-generated image shows the facade of the International Slavery Museum in Liverpool.
While the outside looks broadly similar to its current design, the right of the image depicts a new building with a stairwell, which could be where the buildings become linked.
Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios was appointed as architect for the project last year.
It is not yet known when the museums will close to the public and whether both will close at the same time.
Speaking about the ambitious project, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner said: “Through investing in these critical cultural projects we can empower both local leaders and people to really tap into their potential and celebrate everything their hometown has to offer.
With Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy adding, “This support will empower our cultural organisations to continue playing an essential role in developing skills, talent and high-quality careers in every corner of the UK.”
Elsewhere in Liverpool, a new £96million train station is set to open in the city’s Baltic Triangle.
The city’s Baltic Triangle has been likened to New York City’s meatpacking district and it has been named one of the coolest neighbourhoods in the UK by Time Out.
Construction work on Liverpool Baltic Train Station is set to start later this year.
Plenty of other museums across the UK will also benefit from huge renovation projects in the coming years, including the British Museum.
The London-based museum is getting a £1billion face-lift, which will see its entrances renovated, areas revamped and new interactive galleries installed.
And Wiltshire Museum is also getting a £1million revamp to restore the Devizes Assize Court attraction, which has been derelict since the 1980s
THERE are plenty of great museums dotted across the country, here are some of our favourites.
Victoria & Albert Museum – Sophie Swietochowski, Assistant Travel Editor
London’s Victoria & Albert Museum, which dates back to 1852, simply oozes history from the building itself to what’s in it, but that’s not to say its exhibitions are dated.
A free “songbook trail” from mega star, Taylor Swift, launches next week, plus there are installations from some of the most renowned artists in the world.
I can easily spend a whole day getting lost in its ancient collections tucked away in a hidden corner – sometimes it can feel like you have the whole place to yourself
Beamish – Ryan Gray, Travel Reporter
Beamish is unlike any typical “museum” in that it’s basically a fully-functioning town in County Durham, offering a genuine look at what life would have been like for people during various stages throughout the past.
It has a miners’ pit village, farms, shops, a pub, a school and even a dentist among its businesses and reconstructions, all created to provide people with an experience as close to stepping back in time as possible.
Recently, it has expanded to include a new 1950s town, which includes a toy shop, a welfare hall and a cinema that has been painstakingly brought in and rebuilt from Ryhope in Sunderland.
If I’m ever up in the north east, I try and make sure I pay a visit to Beamish to make the most of my annual ticket. It’s especially great at Christmas when the skating rink is up and carol singers can be found gathering in the town’s bandstand, along with brass bands if you turn up on the right day.
Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery – Hope Brotherton, Travel Reporter
It’s safe to say I fell in love with art, history and culture at this Birmingham-based museum.
Following a four-year closure, the museum partially reopened to the public with an exhibition on Victorian Radicals featuring a collection of paintings from the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
You can bet the next time I visit my hometown, I will be wandering through the exhibition.
Meanwhile, this UK town is home to one of the world’s best car museums.
And this world class UK museum reopened earlier this year.
INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe were denied a victory after a bizarre stage in the Volta ao Algarve.
Filippo Ganna crossed the line in first place for Ineos before the stage was cancelled.
That is because of a crazy final kilometre which saw the majority of the peloton go off course as they followed the camera motorbikes instead of the correct route.
The confusion was made possible because the finish line was parallel to where the riders went, with just barriers separating the right and wrong track.
Ganna was one of a handful of riders who chose the correct route and he was able to power across the line first.
But his victory was later stripped away as race commissaires cancelled the stage and declared no winner, denying Ratcliffe and Ineos a win.
Volta ao Algarve race director Sergio Sousa explained that was because “truth did not prevail”.
A statement read: “The College of Commissaires interpreted the regulations and, given what happened, decided to cancel the stage because they considered that sporting truth did not prevail in the end.
“All the technical information was clear that the riders should go left at the last roundabout. The fact is that some of them took the right, in a lane parallel to the finish line.
“It was a wrong decision by the peloton but it’s clear that we didn’t do enough to avoid this outcome, which we very much regret.”
Some of the riders who took the wrong turn were forced to lift their bikes over the barriers to cross the finish line.
Stage ‘winner’ Ganna had little sympathy for his competitors, revealing he had previously been punished for taking a wrong turn.
He said: “Everyone took the wrong way, and I took the [correct] one.
“You need to know the rules, you need to know the parcours. It’s the rules for the riders. In the past, I’ve taken the wrong way during a Time Trial, and I lost the race.”
AN ULTRA-rare supercar with an enormous six-litre V12 engine and blistering 754 brake horsepower has gone up for sale for £2.8 million.
The Pagani Huayra Roadster boasts a top speed of 210mph – and can go from nought to 60 in just three seconds.
The model was first unveiled in 2017 – a variant of the Pagani Huayra with a removable top.
Only 100 were produced, making it a hugely sought-after car – with this version being number 7.
It is finished in a blue carbon fibre exterior, with a leather interior.
Adding further to its value is its remarkably low mileage – with just 99 miles on the clock.
And its impressive speeds are achieved by a Mercedes-AMG engine and 1,100 nm of torque.
The listing reads: “The limited run of the Roadster adds to its exclusivity, and all 100 units were sold upon its Geneva debut.
This particular model numbered 7 of 100, was meticulously crafted at Pagani’s new atelier in Italy.
“Now offered with just 99 miles, this rare Pagani Huayra Roadster remains a desirable collector’s item, combining breath-taking design, unparalleled performance, and exclusivity that few other cars can rival.”
Pagani’s Argentinian founder, Horacio Pagani, worked for Lamborghini before starting the company – lending him the inspiration for iconic models such as the Zonda and Huayra.
He has described the Roadster as “the most complicated project we have ever undertaken”.
Its cutting-edge features include active aerodynamics and Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes – ensuring both performance and handling.
The coveted Number 7 will be auctioned by Broad Arrow Auctions on Saturday March 8.
It comes after another Pagani supercar, the Zonda Tricolore, also went up for sale.
The car is one of three built to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Frecce Tricolori.
It will be auctioned by RM Sotheby on Monday February 24.
The listing reads: “This car is amongst the most desirable iterations of the vaunted Zonda,” reads the listing.
“It is being offered from the collection of its third owner and currently registered in Germany.
“The car is exceptionally well-preserved throughout, and at the time of cataloguing, its odometer shows 690 miles from new.
“While the jets of the Frecce Tricolore perform aerobatics in the sky, the Tricolores aerobatics on four wheels is no less impressive to experience, and the Tricolore celebrates Italian passion and panache with flair equalled only by its aeronautical equivalent.”
WITH £10 million in the bank, Nala Ray was one of OnlyFans’ very top earners.
But the 26-year-old “felt like a pimped-out puppet” who traded sex work for a Gucci bag and now has a warning for influencers like Bonnie Blue.
Nala was first approached by a man on Instagram at the start of 2020, when she was working in an orthopaedist’s office, she revealed on the Deep End podcast.
She said that at the time she was into fitness and posted clips of her working out and in her bikini, leading her to have a following of 20,000 people.
“Some random guy messages me on Instagram, and it’s when Covid had just hit or was just about hit, and he’s like ‘You would kill it on OnlyFans’.
“I’m like ‘What is OnlyFans bro?’
“At the time I was working for an Orthopedics company like I’m doing like a real big girl job not making any money.”
Nala decided to give it a go in her spare time and was shocked by just how much she was able to make.
She said she went from making £2,770 a month from her normal job to making £68,000 in her first month on OnlyFans.
You’re literally a pimped-out puppet and your pimps are your subscribers.
Nala Ray
“It blew my mind, we are not promoting this people, not at all, there’s trauma that comes with this okay, way more than you can handle.”
Nala spent four years making content for OnlyFans and in total made £10 million from her stint.
But having now quit the industry to become a fitness coach, she has a stern warning to other women looking to get rich quick.
“You can create customised content for them, specifically saying their name and doing whatever they want, you’re a puppet you’re literally a pimped-out puppet and your pimps are your subscribers,” she warned.
Nala was 11 years old when a tornado hit her family home in Missouri, leaving her and her four siblings homeless.
Her family lived in a hotel room for 12 weeks before they finally found a new house to call home, but the drama was far from over.
Shortly after moving in, her dad was caught cheating and he and her mum divorced.
The family began to make a new life for themselves as her dad flew to Mexico, but just two years later her parents remarried.
The turmoil left Nala feeling traumatised as she explained: “As a kid, you don’t even know you’re going through trauma but as an adult you’re like, man I don’t even remember how I was really feeling because it was just so much hurt all the time.”
During that time Nala’s family began to follow the Christian faith and her dad decided to become a pastor, but not everyone was a fan of their new lifestyle.
“I just felt like everything was being shoved down my throat and I had to do it cause I was the pastor’s kid,” she explained.
“I know my other brothers and sisters feel the exact same way and even my mum in some ways.
“I know she feels like that was just kind of forced into this role when she wasn’t even healed yet.”
Nala says that her turbulent childhood is one of the reasons she went down the OnlyFans road.
She adds: “Someone doesn’t just get on OnlyFans, become a millionaire and then they’re just like whoopy do.
“I just wanted to try it out, no, and I think that’s a big misconception right now with people that they’re like ‘there’s no way she became a Christian,’ you don’t know how broken I was.
“I had such a void in my soul, not just my heart but like my very being was like chipped away from so much hurt.”
As a teenager, Nala describes herself as stubborn and constantly looking for attention from boys to fill the void.
“I got a job when I was like 15 cause I just wanted to get out of the house so bad and then I found I was flirting all the time and I loved the attention,” she added.
“What I realised once I went through my love languages was ‘oh I love physical touch and I don’t get that at home.’
“No-one’s saying you’re my sweetheart I love you, all I see is my mum being depressed and my dad is not there mentally.”
OnlyFans is a subscription content service based in London.
As of 2023, it is thought to have more than 220million registered users and over three million content creators.
Sex workers charge monthly fees for access to pictures, videos and more.
While popular for porn, the site isn’t exclusively designed with that in mind – anyone who wants to build up a fan base and charge them for it can set one up.
Celebs like Katie Price and Kerry Katona are popular personalities on the platform.
“Whether you’re uploading tutorials, tips, behind-the-scenes footage or just endless selfies, a lot of your followers would be willing to pay for them,” the company states.
For every subscription that’s sold to a viewer, performers get 80 per cent of the cash while OnlyFans gets the rest.
It isn’t limited to adult content, as it has become popular with physical fitness experts and musicians.
At the age of 20, Nala started her career on OnlyFans but says it didn’t immediately lead to sex work.
She insists she only posted bikini pictures at the start.
“I had a boyfriend I was sending nudes to you know and I was like ‘oh I’m comfortable with this,’ another doorway opened,” she explains.
When she was approached to start OnlyFans, Nala advertised her account on Instagram and her popularity exploded.
I did not care at all I was like you’re paying me transaction, keep it coming.
Nala Ray
Nala said she first started with ‘teaser’ content, a term used for pictures that aren’t fully nude or sexually explicit.
“It was not anything rated R yet,” she said.
Nala said “The money’s the trap,” which kept her posting more explicit content.
“Our addiction to porn in America is ridiculous… and it’s gotten so much worse because of OnlyFans. OnlyFans exploited it,” she claimed.
Because subscribers can pay for exclusive content and offer extra payment, many OnlyFans models have to talk to their clients and build relationships with them.
“I did not care at all, I was like you’re paying me a transaction, keep it coming,” she explained.
She also claimed to have had so many subscribers she could pay others to handle her inbox for her, as she focused on making more money each month.
When she first started, Nala’s parents had no idea about her new job but found out while they were out for dinner together.
“It was so crazy, I was at dinner with them and some waiter comes up to me while I was with my parents and is like ‘Are you Nala Ray?’
“And my mum Googles me and I’m like ‘Wow’ it was the most embarrassing thing ever but then my mum cut off contact with me,” she revealed.
Her pastor dad was another story though, as he encouraged Nala to carry on as she was giving him money every month.
“I was giving him money every month because he’s got such a hard life and he’s like wants to quit his job,” she explained.
“During it, I was just like ‘oh at least one person in my family is speaking to me’.”
Nala decided to move down to California and got herself her dream home and luxury wardrobe.
“My rent was like $16,000 a month, I was driving a Porsche, had super crazy designer bags.
“I went to other places in the world to go buy my designer bags that were one of a kind and I had a closet in every room in my six-bedroom home that was stuffed full of clothes,” she said.
During her four years on OnlyFans, Nala revealed she made £10 million, but it came at a cost.
Nala was enjoying life alone in her mansion until she met her now-husband, Jordan, on TikTok.
The pair began to message and became friends when she told him about her OnlyFans career.
She revealed that he began to send her Bible passages, which at first made her feel defensive.
“I got so defensive I was like ‘I’m ready to stop being your friend right now, how dare you judge me?’
“But he was not judging me in the least bit, he was loving me,” Nala explained.
Nala realised she was filling her life with materialistic things, and decided to quit OnlyFans so she could be with her partner, who said she needed to return to God.
“He wanted to literally hear me say ‘I’m deleting OnlyFans’ and I did, I was like ‘Dude I’m getting off,’” she said.
The pair soon started dating and seven months later were married.
When Nala told her dad about quitting OnlyFans, she was stunned by his reaction.
She added: “When I finally decided to follow Christ I called my dad, my husband was right next to me and I was like ‘Hey dad I’m getting off of OnlyFans.’
Now that I’m out of it completely, I’m like ‘I was literally hundreds of thousands of people’s slave.
Nala Ray
“I was so excited but he was like ‘Well why don’t you just stay on another year and a half and like make more money and you know settle yourself in because it’s really expensive right now.’
“I’m like ‘Did you really just tell me to continue making porn?”
Now Nala is free of OnlyFans, she says her life is filled with much more purpose.
“I have a purpose, it’s not to make money and it’s not to self-serve, it’s not to buy this new Gucci bag on the shelf it’s not to travel the world,” she said.
She’s able to live off of the money she made through OnlyFans as she invested it and has gone back to posting fitness videos on Instagram.
But she gave a stark warning to those in the business like Bonnie Blue, who claims to make £600,000 a month through OnlyFans.
She said: “It’s not just your soul man, you pay for it in your thoughts, you pay for it in your body, you are a slave and you don’t even think you are.
“Now that I’m out of it completely, I’m like ‘I was literally hundreds of thousands of people’s slave.’”
Born in May 1999, Bonnie – whose real name is Tia Billinger – grew up in a small Derbyshire village, and attended the Friesland School in the village of Sandiacre.
She has two half-siblings – a sister and a brother – who have always remained out of the public eye.
She never knew her biological father, and considers stepfather Nicholas Elliott her dad.
Bonnie also became something of a dance star in her local area, and competed in the British Street Dance Championships alongside her sister back in 2015.
She also had a part-time job at Poundstretcher as a teenager.
After school, she began working in recruitment.
In October 2022, Bonnie married Oliver Davidson, who she had started dating when she was just 15.
Once they were married, they moved to Australia, where Bonnie continued working in recruitment.
However, it was in Australia that she decided to pursue a different line of work, and tried her luck as a ‘cam girl’ – crediting Oliver for giving her the confidence to enter the adult entertainment world.
She quickly made a name for herself in the industry, and was soon making £5,000 a week.
But while her work life was going from strength to strength, her relationship was crumbling, and she and Oliver split after almost a decade together.
She moved over to OnlyFans following her cam girl success, and once again found fame on there.
She quickly became a favourite on the site, especially thanks to her “niche” of sleeping with young male students – such as when she bedded 158 students during Nottingham Trent University’s freshers week in September 2024.
Bonnie is now estimated to be worth £3 million, and makes around £600,000 a month on OnlyFans.
Her family are also supportive of her work, with mum Sarah Billinger even claiming she’s her daughter’s PA, and helps clean up after Bonnie’s events – as well as handing out condoms to young clients.
In January 2025, Bonnie claimed to have broken the world record for the most amount of sex in 12 hours, after apparently sleeping with 1,057 men from 1pm to 1am at a secret London event.
FANS have been left concerned a feud could be brewing between Fred Sirieix and his co-stars Gordon Ramsay and Gino D’Acampo, after they skipped his wedding.
Yesterday the TV star, 53, revealed he had tied the knot with his partner Fruitcake in a stunning ceremony in Jamaica.
To celebrate his big day, Fred Sirieix and Fruitcake were surrounded by family and friends.
However, noticeably absent were his TV pals Gordon Ramsay and Gino D’Acampo
The trio are well known for their ITV show Gordon, Gino and Fred’s Road Trip
However, despite their close bond on the show, fans fear an underlying feud is erupting behind-the-scenes.
This comes despite Fred recently showing his support for under fire Gino.
Italian chef Gino has found himself in hot water over claims of inappropriate behaviour – something he denies.
But this week, Fred put all of the drama with his friends behind him to marry his beloved Fruitcake.
The couple were wed on Tuesday, with the First Dates star sharing the news yesterday.
In a stunning wedding photo posted on Instagram,Fred is seen wearing a white tuxedo, while Fruitcake looked incredible in a strapless dress and veil.
The couple tied the knot at Pattoo Castle in Negril, in front of their friends and family.
Fred has two children, Olympic Team GB star Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix, and her brother Lucien, with his ex-partner Alex Spendolini, both of whom were at the wedding.
His celeb pals rushed to comment on the big day, with Marvin Humes commenting: “Congratulations guys! All the very best and sending lots of love.”
Melvin Odoom wrote: “Congratulations guys.”
And Greg Rutherford added: “Huge congratulations my friend.”
I’m A Celeb star Fred first revealed his relationship with his fiancee back in 2018.
It came after he announced on social media that he had embarked on a romance with a woman he had sweetly nicknamed Fruitcake.
However, the pair have never revealed her real name, or any other information about her that could reveal her identity.
In 2020, the First Dates maître d’ spoke about the wedding for the very first time on Good Morning Britain where he admitted they were in “no rush” to tie the knot after getting engaged and as such had made arrangement to wed in 2022.
However, the planned ceremony was later axed with Fred revealing on I’m A Celebrity last year that they had rescheduled.
The couple’s long-awaited nuptials first came under fire as a result of the Covid lockdown where travel was restricted.
But now the happy couple have finally said “I do”, and they look completely smitten.
A CHEF at Rick Stein’s restaurant has been found dead inside staff accommodation.
The “much-loved” and “valued” employee, in his 30s, died on February 13.
Police were called to a property at Grenville Road in Padstow at around 8pm.
It followed a concern for welfare for a man in a property on the street, home to staff accommodation for the celebrity chef’s company.
A spokesperson for Devon and Cornwall Police said: “Police were called to Grenville Road, Padstow, at around 8pm on Thursday, February 13, following a concern for welfare for a man in a property.
“Sadly, a man in his 30s was declared deceased at the scene.”
Stein bought The Cornish Arms pub in 2009 with his ex-wife and business partner Jill and vowed to keep it a traditional Cornish pub.
The Rick Stein Group currently employs over 600 people.
The family-run business includes restaurants, a cookery school, shops and guest rooms.
A large majority of this operates out of Padstow.
Ian Fitzgerald, managing director of Rick Stein Restaurants, commented: “We are deeply saddened to confirm the passing of one of our chefs on Thursday, February 13.
“There are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death, but out of respect for the family’s wishes for privacy during this difficult time, we will not be sharing further details.
“Our heartfelt condolences are with his family, friends and all who knew him.
“He was a valued and much-loved member of our team and will be greatly missed.”
A NEW BBC series will see a former Strictly Come Dancing winner join up with some of TV’s best to bring a thriller to life on screen.
Rose Ayling-Ellis, who won Strictly Come Dancing in 2021, is to star in new BBC series Reunion.
The new series will run across four episodes and also stars Matthew Gurney, Lara Peake, Anne-Marie Duff and Eddie Marsan.
The new Northern drama is set across Sheffield and the Peak District, and is written by Sheffield-born deaf writer William Mager.
Reunion is a bilingual series filmed in and around Sheffield featuring both British Sign Language (BSL) and spoken English.
Reunion is described as ‘an emotional thriller of revenge and redemption’ following the journey of Daniel Brennan, played by Matthew Gurney (Name Me Lawand, Theatre Ad Infinium.
Brennan is a deaf man determined to right his wrongs while unravelling the truth behind the events that led him to prison.
Across the four episodes, Brennan embodies the struggle of a man caught between two worlds, unable to fully integrate into the hearing world and shunned by his closest friends and the wider deaf community following his heinous crime.
The series explores his isolation, and his relationship with his estranged daughter Carly, played by Lara Peake (How to Have Sex, Rivals), who he has not had any contact with since his arrest over a decade ago.
Anne-Marie Duff, who is known for her roles including Shameless, Bad Sisters and The Salisbury Poisonings, stars as Christine, desperate to find Brennan and get to the full truth behind what he did.
Eddie Marsan as Stephen Renworth (Back to Black, Ray Donovan), Christine’s protective boyfriend, while Rose Ayling-Ellis (Summer of Rockets, As You Like It) plays Christine’s daughter, Miri.
Discussing the new BBC series, star Matthew Gurney said: “Reunion is an amazing storyline and is completely different from my previous work.
“My character Brennan is on a wildly different journey than that portrayed by normal deaf lives, this portrays a man who is hated within the deaf community.
“It shows how deaf people react and act on screen in an honest and authentic way. We are different to hearing actors, we are so much more visual storytellers, it’s not about relying on sound it’s about using your eyes and seeing what is going on in the story.”
Lara Peake, playing his on-screen daughter, added: “There’s so much in Reunion that people can relate to from the relationships and storyline to what it feels like to be isolated from a community and welcomed into a community.
“To be able to watch a show that is led by deaf actors is incredible and the inclusion of sign language is not seen often enough.
“It’s a real opportunity to learn and become fascinated and immersed in that world.”
Reunion is coming soon to BBC iPlayer and BBC One.
