First comes love, then comes marriage. Now that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have announced their engagement, are they thinking about that baby carriage? When asked about children during the couple's first joint interview on Sky News, Harry said, "Not currently. No." His bride-to-be laughed at his response. However, the couple may revisit the subject of children after they tie the knot this spring. "I think one step at a time and hopefully we'll start a family in the near future," Harry added. Markle smiled and nodded in agreement. Harry is already the uncle to Prince George, 4, and Princess Charlotte, 2. Kate Middleton is also planning on welcoming a third child with...

Earlier this week, Mads Mikkelsen headed to France where he was given the Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters for his acting talents, with his "The Hunt" director Thomas Vinterberg, also receiving the same honor. So Mikkelsen was in a pretty good mood when he sat down with Kay Burley of Sky News, where he spilled a bit of news about his role in "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story." Obviously, **spoilers ahead**.

Social media users have reacted angrily or with bemusement after Eamonn Holmes conducted a cringe-worthy interview with Jeremy Corbyn.
The presenter went 'full Alan Partridge' by using tortuous football analogies ("Every young lad has a dream of playing in the cup final - was yesterday your Fa Cup Final?") and asked inane questions during the exchange. Holmes immediately came under fire from critics on Twitter who accused him of dumbing down political debate.
The new leader of the Labour party batted away with a number of questions, and was left bemused at some of the interjections made by Holmes in the uncomfortable interview.
"People will say I'm sucking up to you or being soft - but people will say your outlook is 'a bit hippy'," declared the Sky News man, who seemed embarrassed to ask tough or political questions beyond, "Why don't you just admit you hate the Tories!

Kay Burley will not face an Ofcom inquiry over her interview with an Islamic human rights advocate.
Cerie Bullivant, from the group Cage, walked out of an interview with the Sky News anchor in February after taking issue with her questions.
Burley asked Bullivant for his thoughts on the recent Isis beheadings and also asked whether he condemned the actions of Jihadi John.
"Your question is inherently Islamophobic and racist," Bullivant replied, arguing that Muslims should not have to defend their humanity by condemning the "brutal" actions of Isis.
"Nonsense, get over yourself," Burley said.
An Ofcom spokesperson said in a statement on Monday (March 30): "Ofcom has carefully assessed a number of complaints about whether a presenter's questioning style was appropriate during an interview about executions carried out by Isis.

Elton John would like those who oppose same-sex marriage for so-called religious reasons to have another look at their New Testament.
"The church hierarchy, the traditionalists, might be up in arms about it but times have changed," the 67-year-old singer recently told Sky News' Dermot Murnaghan.
"If Jesus Christ was alive today, I cannot see him, as the Christian person that he was and the great person that he was, saying this could not happen. He was all about love and compassion and forgiveness and trying to bring people together and that is what the church should be about."
John and longtime partner David Furnish have two sons together and are planning to marry next year in London, now that gay marriage is legal in England.

Prince William looked perfectly handsome—dapper, even!—at the Royal Marsden Hospital charity dinner held Monday at Windsor Castle. But when Kate Middleton's hubby came face-to-face with Ralph Lauren at the black-tie event, he told the designer apologetically, "I'm sorry my wife's not here. You probably would far rather my wife [be here]." "Not at all," said Mr. Lauren (although let's be honest, any designer would be thrilled for a chance to chat with a royal fashionista). Unlike Ralph though, fellow gala attendee Kate Moss admitted her disappointment over the duchess' absence. In footage obtained by Sky News, the British supermodel could be seen asking William,...

ITV launched its latest attempt in the breakfast TV war earlier today (April 28), with Good Morning Britain landing on our screens.
Susanna Reid, Ben Shephard, Sean Fletcher and Charlotte Hawkins co-hosted the brand new format, following Daybreak's end on Friday. But how well did they fare?
Most of the early reviews appear to be largely positive, with most people commenting on its similarity with Us morning show Good Morning America. Digital Spy has compiled a round-up of reviews and reactions from around the web below:
Critic Reviews

"The new 'serious news' format for Good Morning Britain feels like it's having to battle with ITV's natural lean towards fluff. The presentation of 'One Direction talking loves and relationships' as breaking news undermines a lot of the hard work they're putting in elsewhere.

Kay Burley was not afraid to give her opinion of ITV's brand new morning show today (April 28).
The Sky News broadcaster was one of Good Morning Britain's first viewers today, after it launched as Daybreak's replacement. However, Burley may not be tuning in again.

After commenting on the ITV show's busy format, Burley then replied to a tweet about the use of four co-hosts rather than Daybreak's standard two.

✒ Last week's farewell party, or in effect funeral service, for the Press Complaints Commission offered a sad contrast with the Pcc in its pomp. Lord Hunt, one of several sometime chairmen and directors attending, wandered around with a tray of canapes as if looking for a new, humbler role. Solemn speeches were ill-advisedly backdropped by a slideshow rich in Pcc party snaps, including one of a former bigwig playing Santa Claus. All a far cry from the body's glitzy apotheosis, its 10th birthday party in 2001, when guests swigged champagne amidst display cases of jewellery at Somerset House and mingled with Prince Charles, Camilla, Prince An drew, Prince William and, for some reason, Donatella Versace. Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, but to be regulating was very heaven.
✒It dragged on far into the night. Several of the participants rambled on embarrassingly or said stupid things. Almost everyone was drunk or acted drunk.

Kay Burley was involved in a bizarre scene in Kuala Lumpur earlier today (March 19).
The Sky News broadcaster was reporting live when a violent media scrum occurred after a press conference had been held about the missing Malaysia Airlines plane.
9 of Kay Burley's most cringeworthy moments
Burley provided literally running commentary as relatives of the missing passengers were chased up escalators by the media frenzy.
The newsreader could be heard shouting "I've lost my phone!" and "I should have gone to the gym!" as she ran up an escalator in the wrong direction, and appeared to fall over as she got to the top.
Two relatives of the passengers had previously been forcibly removed from the news conference after trying to unveil a banner.

Kay Burley today celebrated 25 years at Sky News by signing a new five-year contract with the channel.
We celebrate the occasion by revisiting nine of her most memorable moments - from making Peter Andre cry to an embarrassing religious faux pas:
1. Insania!
Trust Kay Burley to really stick the knife in! The presenter was tugging at poor Andre's heartstrings during an interview with the popstar which suddenly moved onto his family, with questions like: "Do [your children] know that their mummy's got married [to Alex Reid]?" She then brought out footage of Dwight Yorke doubting Andre's initial claims that he was going to adopt Dwight's son Harvey.
Andre began to well up, but that didn't stop Burley going straight for the jugular by asking him how he would feel if Reid wanted to adopt his children. And if that wasn't enough, she then rephrased it and attempted to ask it again! Andre terminated the interview but Burley remained totally unfazed.

Here's your chance to be a part of history! As Prince George celebrates his royal christening at St. James' Palace today, England's Royal Mint is hard at work creating British coins to commemorate the special occasion. Approved by Prince William and Kate Middleton, the gold and silver coins are emblazoned with Prince George's name on one side and an image of Queen Elizabeth II on the other. According to London's Sky News, the new christening coins had to be made much quicker than other coins because design couldn't begin until the baby's gender and name were revealed. The best part of the special coins could just be the price. Sold for as little as $20.93 (£13), the...
