Star does business on the loo
TELLY presenter Laura Whitmore spends up to half an hour a day replying to emails on the loo.
The Love Island host has even signed big TV deals on the throne.
Pregnant Laura, 35, said: “I do a lot of life admin on the toilet. That’s where I also catch up on my emails, reply to people, sometimes do a little bit of online shopping.
“I feel like it’s rude to do it in front of people, especially if you’re out for dinner or at a party.
“So I’ll go to the toilet and do it, but then sometimes I could be in there for 15 minutes or longer, 20 minutes, half an hour.
“A lot of people think I’ve got a drug problem or a bowel problem. It’s really just a shopping problem.”
Laura, who is married to comic Iain Stirling, 33, said she had “signed big deals while sitting on the toilet”.
She told the When No One’s Watching podcast: “The worst is when someone says, ‘I’m going to give you a quick call.’
“I’m like, ‘No, no! Don’t call me now.’”
BRIT Award winner KT Tunstall is urging fans to protect their ears after the musician suffered hearing loss herself.
The Suddenly I See singer, 45, said: “About 10 years ago, I suffered very sudden hearing loss and developed constant tinnitus in my left ear.
“I remember the tinnitus being especially hard to deal with and it was causing me some depression – it’s difficult when you can’t ever escape this sound. But I got used to it.
“Two years ago I had another event, which led to me losing my hearing entirely on that side – a condition called sudden sensory hearing loss.
“If I could do it all again, I would definitely make sure I was going for regular hearing checks from a young age.”
