Lee’s not too Guilty over fun times
Lee Ryan left his fans shocked after telling a court he was too skint to pay a £1,000 fine.
Live music continues its triumphant comeback with the welcome return of festival All Points East. Headliners London Grammar finally got to play tracks off April chart-topper Californian Soil. Singer Hannah Reid, who told of beating her stage fright, says of their return: “It feels like the biggest show of our career because of what was taken from us, not being able to play gigs.”
It may look like a shot from a sci-fi film, but look closer behind the neon pink mask and it’s none other than… model and actress Suki Waterhouse.
Suki, 29, looks positively (and literally) glowing as she uses the latest fad in beauty treatment
– an LED mask by CurrentBody which will set you back a cool
£279.
A-listers claim they’re the secret to a flawless complexion.
I’m sure having supermodel genes doesn’t hurt either.
But it appears the ex-Blue heartthrob isn’t quite on his uppers, judging from his enviable snaps of a Spanish getaway.
Instagram photos shared by the ex-boybander in the weeks before his court date look rather flash for a man who told magistrates: “I just don’t have any money.”
All Rise singer Lee posted a video on a boat in the Mediterranean as dolphins swam close by, with the caption: “What a beautiful experience to be so close to such stunning wild nature.” And
another image shows £530 faux snakeskin boots from designer Mark Schwartz.
There was also a visit to upmarket Marbella eatery Rosas Café. A sandwich there will set you back nearly £14!
Lee, 38, appeared in court this month and was hit with a 12-month driving ban and fines over a motoring offence.
He told Peterborough magistrates court via remote link from Spain that he was “out of work at the moment due to Covid”.
With hits such as One Love, Lee
sold more than 14 million records in his Blue heyday from 2000 to 2005. The band reformed in 2011.
He has also been on TV in shows such as EastEnders, Strictly Come Dancing and Celebs Go Dating.
Lee claims: “I’m not working. I mean, they’ve stopped the gigs. I don’t have any gigs.
“They’ve stopped everything because of the pandemic. There’s still no shows going on.”
I reached out to Lee’s people for an explanation of his apparent high life. But judging by his snaps, he’s not feeling too Blue.
