"Been on going since a teenager and wore a back brace. "Need some advice on the best back supports to help with my posture and work etc.. thank you. "Any advice I would appreciate it." Lacey recently sparked romance rumours with Terence Edwards as they rang in her birthday at a trendy bar. Terence, 40, and Lacey cuddled up close for plenty of photos and videos posted to their respective Instagram stories. The pair appeared on the E4 reality relationship series one year apart, but seems they have become fast friends since moving on from their TV spouses. They partied with Lacey's twin sister Paige and Love Island's Marcel Sommerville at celebrity hotspot, Sheesh, in Chigwell. The pair even took a video of themselves doing shots on the night out. Terrence also posted a video sitting next to Lacey and filmed her receiving her birthday cake as she cheered while everyone sang her Happy Birthday. MAFS stars spark romance rumours as they cosy up on boozy night out after bride is accused of showmance with groom The social worker turned DJ and host found fame in the 2023 series of MAFS, while Lacey appeared on the E4 show a year later. Terrence was paired with Porscha Pernnelle on MAFS UK, but their marriage did not last when he walked out of the show after hearing rumours she had kissed other grooms. Since then, he has been spotted hanging out with another MAFS UK star, Tasha Joy, 27. As for Lacey, she seemed to have a happier marriage on the series when she was put with Nathan Campbell, but they split after the show aired. Their breakup turned sour when Nathan accused Lacey of wanting to fake their romance in order to get more publicity and media opportunities. He made the revelations during February's reunion episode. Nathan told some of the other grooms: "She messaged me and said after a year you get magazine deals and things like that, showmance." He went on to say: "She sent me a text message saying the relationship she wanted would be a pretend one so she could get more opportunity from it and make more money but I didn't want to do it." What is scoliosis? Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine, which can cause uneven shoulders. Treatment is not always necessary for the condition but some people who develop scoliosis can be required to wear a back brace to stop the curve worsening as they get older. In cases where surgery is required, patients may undergo a spinal fusion operation; a procedure that can last for several hours. Lacey's family defended her on social media and she opened up about experiencing dark episodes since the breakup. "We all have our battles, but overall, I am a positive girl. And I didn't get out my pyjamas for four days. I was crying, and it was just me, my mum and my twin sister Paige in the house," she told Bobby Norris on his Access All Areas podcast. "And I was like, Mum, there's no way out. And for me, I feel like Nathan should have put a statement out." She continued: "I suffer with depression. I'm pretty open about that, but I've never had dark thoughts like that where I'm drowning. "I just want it to be all over. I just want to be asleep. And, it was a hard place. And there was no one to run to, and even if you put out a statement, people weren't really reading it." 4 Lacey told her Instagram followers she's "in agony" with the condition Credit: Instagram / lacemartin_ 4 She married Nathan Campbell on the E4 show Credit: Instagram

Telling clue Married at First Sight stars secretly got married after prank proposal
Ridge Barredo stunned fans in January when he got down on one knee for girlfriend Jade Pywell as he teased some huge relationship news. But the Married At First Sight star, 29, subverted expectations at the last second when he revealed he was only playing a 'cruel' prank, and not actually proposing. In two social media posts made on Thursday, Jade, 28, has teased fans with a subtle hint as to her martial status. In a screenshot of a text exchange with her partner, the mum-of-one distinctly underlined the word 'Husband', which she has set in her phone for Ridge's contact. Then, in a comedic video about the State of Origin game last night – Jade filmed Ridge saying: 'But as you all know, State of Origin is full of bogans, losers, and drunk a**holes. I'd much rather prioritise my misso [sic] who's perfect, amazing, and doesn't threaten me with my life.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Misso, of course, is an Australian slang used to describe a man's wife. In the reflection of a full-length mirror in the video, Jade can be seen nodding faux seriously, while holding a kitchen knife in one hand. Then, in the following post to her Stories she wrote: 'He did in fact watch sports all night and then sat on his phone for the rest of the night.' The text exchange shows messages from Ridge, sent on Wednesday afternoon. which read: 'I'll miss you every moment until you come home xx. Hopefully you leave your attitude at the gym,' followed by a single smiley-face emoji. 'Probably not,' Jade replied jokingly with two smiley faces. Daily Mail Australia has approached the couple for comment. Ridge and Jade were matched up on season 11 of Married at First Sight and were the only pairing to take a lasting relationship into the real world, after Sydney-based psychiatric nurse Ridge committed to moving states. The good-humoured duo have found success on social media with their skits about modern domestic life together. In a screenshot of a text exchange with her partner, the mum-of-one distinctly underlined the word 'Husband', which she has set in her phone for Ridge's contact However, the faux proposal skit posted earlier this year went down like a lead balloon with Ridge's 118,000 followers. He could be seen in an Instagram video enjoying some time in the sun on the back of a boat with Jade, when the jokester pretended to pop the question. His elaborate prank began when he encouraged Jade to take a photo with him next to the edge of the boat. The brunette bombshell was already drenched with water as she posed with him while wearing a wet-suit pulled down to her waist to expose her bikini top. Ridge then grasped her left hand in his and got down on one knee, leaving Jade to stare down at him in shock and glee as she believed he was proposing. However, as the trickster looked up at her and pulled her in close, he suddenly shoved her into the water next to them. Jade appeared to take the joke in good fun as she shared the video to her own Instagram Stories making light of the prank. 'Sheesh. Harder than I thought trying to get a ring,' she captioned the clip alongside an emoji with a single tear. Ridge and Jade were matched up on season 11 of Married at First Sight and were the only pairing from their 'experiment' to take a lasting relationship into the real world Ridge subverted expectations at the last second when he revealed he was only playing a 'cruel' prank, and not actually proposing in January It comes after Jade and her MAFS hubby opened up about their future together, and it seems that baby plans are on the horizon. In an exclusive chat with Daily Mail Australia last August, the couple, who met and fell in love on MAFS 2024, revealed plans to start a family. When asked about their sex life, Ridge was quick to deflect. 'You can go…' he started, before cheekily offloading the question. 'Yeah, deece,' he jokingly added. 'She's not pregnant yet, though, which is a bit annoying,' he quipped with a laugh. 'And she's got a ring on her finger and everything. But apparently not. It has to be a different one,' he added, hinting at Jade's desire for a more official engagement before they start trying for a baby. 'The show doesn't count,' Jade said. 'I'd like a proper engagement, instead of me just being handed to him.'

While the show doesn't return until later this year, there have already been rumours on who could be trying their hand on the dance floor. It has been claimed relationship expert and TV host Paul could be joining the show. The star became known to UK fans thanks to his appearances on CGD and MAFS UK, but recently starred alongside Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden for Netflix's reality series, Cheat: Unfinished Business. READ MORE: 'Brilliant' air cooling fan that keeps homes cool during the heatwave slashed from £150 to £40 Speaking to The Sun about why bosses want to sign Paul onto the show, an insider claimed: "Paul would be the ideal tonic to the dark clouds over Strictly as he's clean-cut, very intelligent and has no scandals to worry about. 'They are now in discussion but he's met with producers a number of times." The Mirror have reached out to the BBC for comment. Earlier this week, the same publication claimed bosses want Sir Mo Farah on the show as he's a "genuine national treasure". His personality would provide the perfect tonic to the toxicity that's overshadowed Strictly. Bosses would love to sign him up but the talks are at a very early stage.' In recent times, Strictly Come Dancing dealt with numerous scandals. After 2023's series, Amanda Abbington accused professional dancer partner Giovanni Pernice of bullying. Amanda made a series of claims about bullying behaviour and Giovanni decided to take a break from the public eye following the scandal. Meanwhile, he recently won the Italian version of Strictly and has returned to the UK for a series of dance projects. Around the same time, Graziano Di Prima was axed from the show. But reports emerged over the summer claiming that the Italian dancer had kicked and hit Zara, 27, which he strongly denies. He later admitted that his "intense passion and determination to win might have affected my training regime." Most recently, Wynne Evans was axed from the Strictly live tour over his behaviour. Wynne appeared on This Morning recently to speak about his series of scandals while on the BBC show - and revealed that the negative attention had taken a severe toll on his mental health. "I was at my lowest ebb, I wanted to end my life. I would have if I hadn't been surrounded by people," he said to the TV show's hosts.
