IN CASE YOU MISSED IT!

1 KATE HUDSON is looking to make a splash in the liquor industry with her own craft vodka brand. The How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days star has created King St Vodka - described as an ‘ultra-premium spirit’ hand-crafted in Santa Barbara, California - after realising this particular corner of the market is one dominated by male entrepreneurs. Hudson explained how the idea came about in a new Instagram post announcing her latest venture, writing, “After a particularly long day, I decided to host an impromptu cocktail party with my closest friends. As I prepared to whip up a batch of dirty vodka martinis I surveyed my bar, but I wasn’t 100 percent happy with my options. Then I wondered, ‘Are any of these vodkas founded by women?’ I did some research, they weren’t. So, I decided to make my own just the way I like it! @KingStVodka #KingStVodka.” The actress is the latest celebrity to unveil her own vodka brand - rap mogul Sean  ‘Diddy’ Combs is behind the Ciroc label, actor Channing Tatum launched the Born And Bred line in 2017, and country star Blake Shelton owns Smithworks Vodka.

2 JESSICA SIMPSON is breathing a sigh of relief after overcoming a series of ‘scary’ family illnesses with her three children. The singer revealed on Instagram that her seven-year-old daughter Maxwell, six-year-old son Ace, and her baby girl Birdie, seven months, had all been struck down with one ailment or another recently, and it has been a rough time for Simpson and her husband, Eric Johnson, as they tried to take care of everyone at once.

“It was a challenging 10 days for the family,” she wrote on Instagram beside a photo of herself and I are so relieved they are happy and healthy now.”
