After leaving the Love Island Villa, Ellie Jackson felt huge pressure to do well, with a lot of people assuming she would become a big influencer. But she was only able to stay self-employed for a year through a few brand deals. She told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Wales that it ‘is just only like a select few that actually make it’ [as an influencer], and that the success of fellow Welsh contestants, like Amber Davies and Dr Alex Georgie certainly gave her cause to dream an unrealistic dream. So – are we all too influenced by influencers? Sleep paraphernalia trends are becoming more and more common, from eye masks, pillow sprays, sleepy teas. You name it. But do you use them? Maybe they're something that's worked for you? Can you get a good night’s sleep without them? Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman are to leave Strictly Come Dancing at the end of the series. In a joint statement, they say: "We have loved working as a duo and hosting Strictly has been an absolute dream… We were always going to leave together and now feels like the right time.†It’s your reaction that… Be part of the nation's conversation.
