Katie and Peter reunited over Harvey’s swine flu:
Katie Price and Peter Andre were reunited properly for the first time since their split last night, after Harvey was rushed into hospital. The disabled youngster is thought to have contracted swine flu, which can be very serious for a child of his condition. As soon as Pete heard the news, he cancelled a scheduled appearance to switch on some store Christmas lights and rushed to be by Harvey's bedside. Mum Katie, who friends say is "frantic" with worry, was also keeping a vigil with her son. Her spokesman said last night, "Katie is preparing to take time off work until Harvey is well." Friends of Pete's say that although he and Katie have now been forced to sit down together face-to-face, the singer's only concern is Harvey. We hope he feels better very soon.

Jedward have fans in high places
The Chinese Ambassador who lives next door to the X Factor house has finally spoken out about her feelings for the show – and she doesn't have one bad word to say. It was assumed that the huge group of fans who gathered outside the house had annoyed her, but today Madam Fu Ying admitted that she's actually a secret fan of the show. "It was fun finding myself caught up in X Factor fever," she joked. "I enjoy watching The X Factor when there is time and have my favourite contestants." She said she was "impressed" by the twins John and Edward's "determination and spirit", and thought that both Olly and Danyl were "great showmen". She went on to say Lloyd and Joe have  "a lot of potential", while Stacey and Lucie are both "talented and popular". She made special mention of Jamie Archer's afro, adding, "His hair makes him look unique." See, the whole world has gone X Factor mad!

Hollyoaks actor to Dance On Ice
Hollyoaks actor Kieron Richardson (Ste) is the latest star getting ready to strap on his ice skates for Dancing On Ice – and he's been getting tips from his former co-star Chris Fountain. Chris got to the final of Dancing On Ice when he took part, and was one of the best contestants the show's ever had, so Kieron's in very good hands. Other celebs rumoured to be braving the ice include EastEnders' actress Danniella Westbrook, Simon Cowell's best friend Sinitta, Gordon Ramsay's wife Tana and Heather "Mucca" Mills. The show starts in January next year. We can't wait!

Amy Winehouse's dad to record an album!
Mitch Winehouse is following in his daughter's footsteps and releasing an album. The cabbie says the album will be mostly retro swing, explaining, "It's a Sinatra-ish album. There will be six covers of Sinatra." Mitch says the whole family have always been singers, so maybe his effort will be a success. Would YOU consider buying a copy?
