No Apple or Coco for swell gal Glenda

MUM-TO-BE Glenda Gilson, left, looked stunning at the Virgin Media autumn launch at the Aviva Stadium. Wearing a Kooples dress with Gucci trainers Glenda was seen protectively rubbing her growing bump. She said: ‘We don’t know what we are having, we decided not to find out. We have chosen some boys and girls names and they are very normal.’ The presenter is due in October and will be back to work in November as host of Ireland’s Got More Talent.

HER TV show is named after her and Elaine Crowley’s eponymous range of dresses, Elaine, by So Couture is set for launch next month. She debuted a little number from the collection this week, saying: ‘This is one of the designs and I’m very proud of them.’ The chat show host, above, has already started on her second collection which will be a range of tops. Life is tops all round for Elaine as things with long-term boyfriend Keith are ‘going great’.

CASSIE STOKES is set to become the senior presenter on Xposé, and two years in is still loving it.

‘I’m loving the show. Being home in Dublin is a massive highlight for me.’ And despite interviewing some of the world’s biggest stars it’s homegrown celebs that are Cassie’s favourites. ‘Meeting Pippa all the time is great. I used to only see her on Instagram… I used to watch Brian Dowling on television and now I drop him a text when he’s in Dublin to hang out.’ Cassie, far left, laughs at the fact people congratulated her after an engagement joke on social media, but says: ‘One day, maybe, eventually.’ CORRIE star Victoria Ekanoye promised ‘I’ll be back,’ after her first trip to Ireland this week. The actress, above, who plays Angie Appleton in the hit soap, said her maternal Grandma Maggie was a Dubliner. ‘My mum has never been to Ireland either and now I’ve been I know she would love it.’ Looks like we can claim Victoria!
