Larry Emdur responds to rumours he is reprising iconic game show The Price Is Right
He's the Gold Logie winner who won legions of fans twenty years ago as the host of The Price is Right. And now there's speculation that The Morning Show's Larry Emdur could be back for a reboot of the beloved game show. According to New Idea magazine, a revival may be on the cards for the iconic prime time series. 'There's so much love for nostalgia right now, and there's no doubt Aussie audiences would love a revived version of The Price is Right,' a source told the magazine earlier this week. 'It would need to be done properly and not like the cheaper version that was done a few years ago.' 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. Larry, 60, has since responded to the rumours with a typically cheeky post on social media. 'I'm not sure my old back and old hips could handle it,' he shared to his Instagram on Thursday. 'They're still really sore from that 130kg truck driver who dry-humped me on the studio floor after he won a terracotta birdbath,' he joked. Larry included a story from this week's edition of New Idea in his post that reported network executives are 'buzzing' over bringing the long-running show back on air. 'Viewers will flock to any show Larry's hosting – and if he brought back The Price is Right, they'd go bonkers for it,' a TV insider told the publication. Larry rose to fame on The Price is Right, which he hosted between 1993 and 1998, when the game show aired on Nine. He was back at the helm for a Nine revival of the show between 2003 and 2005. Channel Seven attempted a reboot with Larry in 2012, but cancelled it in January 2013, before a second series could be filmed. According to the source, networks are currently keen on game shows, following the ratings success of Tipping Point and The Floor. 'There's so much love for nostalgia right now, and there's no doubt Aussie audiences would love a revived version of The Price is Right,' the insider said. 'It would need to be done properly and not like the cheaper version that was done a few years ago.' Larry is currently hosting tea-time favourite The Chase Australia, which has been rating highly for Seven over the past three years. The source said that it was Larry's own post to his Instagram last month about The Price is Right that triggered network interest in a reboot. 'How good was The Price is Right?' Larry posted, and asked followers to name their favourite 'bit' of the show as well as their favourite game. The post, which dropped on May 20, has since received 2,933 likes from followers, while fans were quick to share their memories in the comments. Larry made headlines last August after securing his first-ever Logie Award when he took home a Silver and secured the Gold at the 2024 ceremony at The Star Casino in Sydney. The TV star has been a recognisable face on Aussie screens since the age of 19, but has never before secured a win at the prestigious awards ceremony. In a milestone victory, Larry was

Delta Goodrem ties the knot with fiancé Matthew Copley in star-studded Maltese wedding
Delta Goodrem has tied the knot with her partner of six years, Matthew Copley, in a star-studded wedding on the island nation of Malta. The Australian singer and actress, 40, and Matthew, 38, who is a guitarist, said "I do" in picturesque Europe last Monday, according to New Idea. The high-profile couple's celebrity pals, including entertainer Renee Bargh, TV presenter Richard Wilkins and his son Christian, as well as Delta's mother, Lea, and brother, Trent, joined them at the celebration. The magical location where the nuptials occurred is significant to the couple, as it's where Matthew first got down on one knee two years ago. The Born to Try hitmaker once addressed the location's significance by claiming, 'My partner's family is all from Malta'. After the wedding, photos obtained by New Idea show the couple continued to celebrate with family and friends at a seaside beach club. Delta, with her sandy blonde hair styled in loose waves, beamed as she flashed her signature smile and wedding band while embracing guests. She then slipped into a more comfortable electric blue swimsuit, which she accessorised with a white and black sarong and gold jewellery. Delta took a dip in the Mediterranean waters while at the afterparty, no doubt revelling in the joy of being a newly married couple with Copley. The bride and groom are understood to now be continuing their celebration with a romantic honeymoon through Europe. The musicians are likely to still find the time to make music together throughout their travels, which Delta once said bound them together. 'It's a love language for us,' Delta told Stellar in May. 'Music is how we met; it's what we both do. "I have an amazing partner, and we live a good life, and we get to tour the world doing what we love.' Speculation is rife Delta and Matthew got legally married in Australia some weeks ago after she was spotted with a wedding band on her ring finger during a performance in London in May. If the rumours are true, the newlyweds have been officially married for a month but decided to celebrate with their loved ones in Malta on Monday. Delta has been officiating her wedding plans for a while now and kicked things off with a hen's party in Sydney's Palm Beach in April. The singer boarded a luxury yacht in the suburb on the city's Northern Beaches, where she was joined by her close friends, including former Nine presenter Airlie Walsh and Renee Bargh. Delta and Matthew, who are based in Los Angeles, are believed to have met through their mutual friend, fellow Aussie singer Conrad Sewell. In 2023, the couple launched their own record label, ATLED Records. Delta was previously engaged to Irish singer Brian McFadden and has been romantically linked to both Mark Philippoussis and Nick Jonas. The Sydney-born performer has previously said she values deep, lasting relationships, and she and Matthew effortlessly intertwine this into their lives. "I'm somebody who loves to go deeper," Delta told HELLO! magazine in 2020. "I'm all about long-term friendships and relationships, and I love those people with all my heart. "When Matt and I work together, it's really easy to go straight to the core of our feelings because we're living and breathing life together all the time. "It's wonderful to work with him."

Delta Goodrem: Aussie singer gets married to long-time partner Matthew Copley in Malta
Aussie singer Delta Goodrem has tied the knot with long-time partner Matthew Copley on the European island of Malta. The pair are believed to have made their love official on June 16, according to New Idea, after months of speculation regarding their nuptials. In May, Goodrem was seen wearing a wedding band during a London performance at Hackney Empire, but curiously did not appear to be wearing it while treating fans at London's St Pancras International Station to an impromptu performance later in the month. On Tuesday, following their wedding day, the couple were joined by Goodrem's mother Lea and brother Trent as they continued proceedings at a beach club. Glowing under the European sun, Goodrem was seen in a turquoise dress as she embraced loved ones and flaunted her striking engagement ring and wedding band. High-profile friends Richard Wilkins, his son Christian, and TV personality Renee Bargh also made the trip. Goodrem is believed to have met Copley, 38, in 2017 while on tour. She told The Women's Weekly in 2023 that the pair's shared passion for music had blossomed into a love for each other. 'He's my guitarist, I met him through music,' she said. 'It's incredible to be on stage with him because he's so talented. We really are a team. He's my best friend, he's kind and just a beautiful human being. 'But I learnt quite young that I enjoy keeping part of that private.' Malta was not only the setting for the couple's destination wedding, but it was also Copley's location of choice when he popped the question in 2023. With her husband's family largely Maltese, the singer has been open in the past about her love for the island. She even performed at the MTV Malta music festival a couple of years ago. Goodrem wrote on social media at the time, 'Malta you have my heart 🫶🏼what a place!!! performing and then getting to spend time with our beautiful family and friends watching sunsets, swimming in the sea and dancing in the streets 🫶🏻 how lucky are we to do what we get to do 🎵~☀️grateful. La familia!!'

Neighbours star, Delta Goodrem, has tied the knot with her longtime love, Matthew Copley, surrounded by her family and friends at a lavish bash on the island of Malta Brian McFadden's ex, Delta Goodrem, has got hitched to her partner, Matthew Copley, in a stunning Maltese wedding. The Neighbours star, 40, who split with Brian in 2011 after a seven-year relationship, was surrounded by family and friends for her big day on the island, which holds a special place in the newlyweds' hearts. Musician Matthew proposed to Delta in Malta and also has family links to the country. In a YouTube video form 2023, his bride-to-be said: "My partner's family are all from Malta and many of my band members and backup singers also share Maltese heritage". The couple's private wedding, which reportedly took place on Monday, was said to be a show-stopping multi-day celebration attended by the couple's nearest and dearest. According to New Idea magazine, among the guests were Delta's mother Lea and brother Trent, as well as TV presenter Renee Bargh, former Nine journalist Airlie Walsh, and her best friend Danielle Cox. The carefully-planned nuptials had reportedly been two years in the making, with guests receiving detailed schedules ahead of the big day. Delta, who has remained private about her personal life, got engaged to Matthew, her guitarist and musical collaborator, in September 2023 after the pair met in 2017. Taking to Instagram, sharing a snap of the couple alongside a dazzling sparkler, she wrote: "My best friend asked me to marry him." Delta also shared footage of the special moment, posting a clip of a musical quartet playing in front of a lawn strewn with white rose petals panning to a close-up shot of her engagement ring. It is understood that the couple were introduced by mutual friends. In a rare interview with HELLO! in November 2020, Delta described herself and Matthew as a 'great team.' She said: "When Matt and I work together, it's really easy to go straight to the core of our feelings because we're living and breathing life together all the time. It's wonderful to work with him." The singer and actress shot to fame in Neighbours in 2002 as Nina Tucker before she started dating singer Brian McFadden two years later. The pair were both were in the midst of their respective failing romances – the Westlife star had just split from his whirlwind of a marriage with Kerry Katona, and Delta had just ended her relationship with tennis player Mark Philippoussis. The two met when Brian asked the Aussie to provide vocals for his song, Almost Here. The song was a smash hit, reaching the top of the charts in Ireland and Australia. However, the couple's relationship generated bad press for Delta, who was seen by some as coming between Brian and Kerry's marriage. 'I'm pretty sure I got voted the most hated woman in Britain one year,' she told the Sydney Morning Herald in an interview. But even with the bad publicity, they got engaged in 2007. However, it wasn't to last, with the couple releasing a joint statement four years later announcing they'd decided to call it a day.
