Hit Channel 4 series returns TODAY after being pulled off air in schedule shake up

CHANNEL 4 has brought back a popular reality show after it was pulled off air.

Brand new episodes of A Place in the Sun will air on our telly screens from today after 12 days off air during the Paralympics.

Britain finish second in Paralympics medal table with an incredible 49 golds.

Now, the popular property show will be back on the broadcaster at 4pm.

Today's episode will see Ben Hillman help Sandra and Gary find their dream holiday home on Spain's Costa Cálida for their budget of £90,000 - despite them never having visited the area before.

Meanwhile, presenter Laura Hamilton was spotted looking loved-up with a married man during a break from filming in Spain.

The 42-year old has been seen smooching in the front seat of a car with CEO James Pettigrew, 44, who is divorcing.

Laura, a mum-of-two, and James are believed to have been dating since January, according to reports.

The couple shared affectionate moments inside the car after a stroll, accompanied by Laura's children, Rocco, 10, and Tahlia, nine.

This is the Channel 4 star's first relationship since splitting from long-term husband Alex Goward in 2022.

However, the romance has reportedly blindsided James' estranged wife Jackie.

James and Jackie share two children together but are now experiencing a "painful divorce", with Jackie left "hurt and upset" by his new partnership with Laura.

A source told the: "Laura has been dating James since January and they spend all their time together.

"While Laura has been single since splitting from her ex-husband, James is still married, and their relationship has caused his estranged wife Jackie a lot of hurt and upset.

"Laura and James have made every attempt to keep their relationship private but it's been months and they're so close now, they are fully committed to each other and making this work long-term."

James, currently the CEO of a maintenance company called Prospero, was seen getting cosy with Laura at the Scottish FA Cup Final in May where they watched the match together.

Laura has also signed up to make an appearance at a corporate event hosted by James in November.

A Place in the Sun airs weekdays at 4pm on Channel 4.
