Olivia Bentley shuts down 'same-sex' dating as she wants 'hubby and five kids'
Olivia Bentley has shut down any thoughts of a same-sex relationship saying that "isn't for me" and that she has a different path to take to everlasting love.
The 24-year-old Made In Chelsea star said she wanted to address rumours about her dating life, specifically that she has been dating a woman, as she said she prefers to be on her own - for the time being at least.
Speaking to Hello! magazine, the reality star said: "I met this girl while I was out with friends and she invited me for a drink.
"Everyone is so quick to say no [to this kind of a dalliance], so I thought I'd just see. I decided it wasn't for me and that I'm not that way inclined."

With thoughts that a same-sex relationship was not the route she wanted to take, Olivia said that she is happy being by herself at the moment.
The MIC star did reveal that she had big plans when she finally does meet Mr Right, and that he needs to be prepared for a busy family life.
Speaking about her current single status, Olivia said: "There's no one in my life and I'm so content."

Olivia continued: "I'm better when I'm single as I feel more emotionally in control. So many people jump from relationship to relationship without enjoying being single, but there's a lot of stuff I want to do before getting tied down.
"I definitely want marriage and children one day. I'd like loads of kids - five of them, like in my family. Trying to find a husband who wants that too will probably be a nightmare!"
Olivia has spent lockdown with her family at her childhood home in Oxfordshire with a menagerie of pets including peacocks and alpacas.

She said: "It feels very calm here and I come down as often as I can. I enjoy hanging out with my family - my brother and three sisters, my parents and their friends.
"I'd choose a dinner party with them over a nightclub any day.
"When I eventually settle down, this way of life is exactly what I aspire to.
"It's a madhouse, like Animal Farm. But it's great being together and I feel closer to my family than ever before.
"It's the first time we've all been here and not squabbled."

Man Utd fell at the semi-final stage in the Europa League as Sevilla came from behind to beat Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's young side but he has urged them to learn from the experience
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer claims his young Manchester United players must learn after their inexperience cost them their Europa League dream.
United paid the price for a succession of missed chances and poor defending for Luuk de Jong’s winner for Sevilla and Solskjaer admitted his side must be more consistent.
“We have to take it, although it’s going to be hard,” said the United manager. “We have a young team and our average age is three years less than them.
“I thought some spells today showed that this group of players will have to learn and get the consistency in their play.
“Their goalkeeper had a fantastic game and of course it’s disappointing we don’t score because we know we’ve got the players who have that quality.
“To concede two goals from two crosses is disappointing. For the second goal, it’s not just the defending in the box, but the whole run-up to the goal. Our recovery runs were not good enough.”
Skipper Harry Maguire claimed the players were “devastated” to lose a third semi-final this season to finish trophyless and agreed with Solskjaer that United’s inexperience had cost them.
“We’ve conceded from two crosses, it’s not good enough,” he said. “We’ve worked our socks off out there and deserved to win the game, we deserved to go through.
“But it’s the third semi-final we have lost this year and that’s disappointing.
“Maybe it was that little bit of inexperience has cost us in the end because even though we were on top and creating chances, we should not be conceding the second goal.

After he apologised for what he had posted years previously, Ellen had him on her show and said that as a member of the LGBTQ community, she accepted his apology.
Ellen has been under-fire from former employees, who have accused her of standing by as members of her staff suffered abuse from others.

Warner Bros. launched an investigation and have said in a statement previously that "dozens of current and former employees" had been interviewed and that they were "disappointed that the primary findings of the investigation indicated some deficiencies related to the show's day-to-day management."
Changes have been made to staff and work practices since the investigation and the production company concluded their statement by saying: "Warner Bros. and Ellen DeGeneres are all committed to ensuring a workplace based on respect and inclusion. We are confident this course of action will lead us to the right way forward for the show."

Millions of self-employed people will be able to claim a coronavirus grant of up to £6,570 from today .
Applications are opening for the second round of the Self-Employment Support Scheme , which helps strivers whose business plunged due to Covid-19 .
But more than a million of Britain 's self-employed people are not eligible for the scheme .
And Labour today warns they are being pushed to a `` cliff-edge '' as the Treasury warns this month 's grant - the second of its kind since March - will be the last .
Meanwhile , today 's grant comes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a million self-employed people who 've already been pushed out of work .
There were 238,000 fewer self-employed people in the last quarter than in the previous three months – a record quarterly fall .
Chancellor Rishi Sunak said the move `` means people 's livelihoods across the country will remain protected - helping them get back on their feet as we return to normal.
” But Shadow Chancellor Anneliese Dodds fears hundreds of thousands more self-employed workers , who 'll rely on the scheme to get them through the next three months @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She said : `` This second phase of the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme is too late for the quarter of a million people who left self-employment between April and June .

“ Just like his one-size-fits-all wind down of the furlough scheme , he ’ s pulling the plug at the worst possible time.
” So what is today @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what are the problems ?
Here 's a quick guide .
What is the scheme ?
The UK government announced a `` Self-Employed Income Support Scheme '' to help self-employed people through the coronavirus outbreak .
There have been two rounds .
In the first round , eligible people got a taxable grant worth 80 % of their average monthly profits over the last three financial years ( 2016/17 to 2018/19 ) .
The grant - paid in a lump sum in June covering March , April and May - was capped at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ total .
Applications for the second round open today .
This time eligible people will get 70 % of their average monthly profits , capped at £2,190 a month .
There are more than 5million self-employed Brits , but only 3.8miillion of them were potentially eligible due to strict criteria .
Government figures show 2.7 million people submitted claims during the first phase of the scheme , accessing £7.8billion in support .
The eligibility criteria remain the same as for the first grant .
To claim , you have to fulfil all of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ self-employed or a member of a partnership • None You need to have lost trading profits due to coronavirus ( more on this below ) • None You need to have filed a tax return for 2018/19 ( if you were late , you have four weeks from today ) • None You need to still be trading now , not just in 2018/19 • None You need to take more than half your total income from self-employment • None You need to have trading profits under £50,000 .
That means a trading @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or an average trading profit of less than £50,000 from 2016-17 , 2017-18 and 2018-19 .
How will I prove I 've made a loss due to coronavirus ?
The Treasury has not set a figure on how much of a loss allows you to claim .
In theory you could claim once you 've lost £1 .
However , tax officials will be able to check you did actually make a reasonable loss when you eventually file your 2020/21 tax return .
People are being asked to take a `` responsible approach @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the penalties might be if you do n't .

HMRC says it will contact all potentially eligible customers , `` including those who did not claim for the first grant '' , to advise them they can claim for a second and final SEISS grant .
Anyone adversely affected by coronavirus since July 14 is eligible .

The Self-Employment Support Scheme opens again today - but more than a million self-employed people aren't eligible, and Labour is warning thousands are about to plunge off a 'cliff'
Millions of self-employed people will be able to claim a coronavirus grant of up to £6,570 from today.
Applications are opening for the second round of the Self-Employment Support Scheme, which helps strivers whose business plunged due to Covid-19.
But more than a million of Britain's self-employed people are not eligible for the scheme.
And Labour today warns they are being pushed to a "cliff-edge" as the Treasury warns this month's grant - the second of its kind since March - will be the last.
Meanwhile, today's grant comes too late for almost a quarter of a million self-employed people who've already been pushed out of work.

There were 238,000 fewer self-employed people in the last quarter than in the previous three months – a record quarterly fall.
Chancellor Rishi Sunak said the move "means people's livelihoods across the country will remain protected - helping them get back on their feet as we return to normal.”
But Shadow Chancellor Anneliese Dodds fears hundreds of thousands more self-employed workers, who'll rely on the scheme to get them through the next three months, face hardship when autumn comes.
She said: "This second phase of the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme is too late for the quarter of a million people who left self-employment between April and June.

“The Chancellor now plans to cut off support for every self-employed worker in the country from October – no matter whether they’re back at work or back under local lockdown.
“Just like his one-size-fits-all wind down of the furlough scheme, he’s pulling the plug at the worst possible time.”
So what is today's scheme, who is eligible and what are the problems? Here's a quick guide.
What is the scheme?

The UK government announced a "Self-Employed Income Support Scheme" to help self-employed people through the coronavirus outbreak.
There have been two rounds.
In the first round, eligible people got a taxable grant worth 80% of their average monthly profits over the last three financial years (2016/17 to 2018/19).
The grant - paid in a lump sum in June covering March, April and May - was capped at £2,500 a month, or £7,500 in total.
Applications for the second round open today. This time eligible people will get 70% of their average monthly profits, capped at £2,190 a month.
Are all self-employed people eligible?
No.
There are more than 5million self-employed Brits, but only 3.8miillion of them were potentially eligible due to strict criteria.
Government figures show 2.7 million people submitted claims during the first phase of the scheme, accessing £7.8billion in support.

Am I eligible?

The eligibility criteria remain the same as for the first grant. To claim, you have to fulfil all of these:
You need to be self-employed or a member of a partnership
You need to have lost trading profits due to coronavirus (more on this below)
You need to have filed a tax return for 2018/19 (if you were late, you have four weeks from today)
You need to still be trading now, not just in 2018/19
You need to take more than half your total income from self-employment
You need to have trading profits under £50,000. That means a trading profit of less than £50,000 in 2018-19 or an average trading profit of less than £50,000 from 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19.
How will I prove I've made a loss due to coronavirus?
The Treasury has not set a figure on how much of a loss allows you to claim. In theory you could claim once you've lost £1.
However, tax officials will be able to check you did actually make a reasonable loss when you eventually file your 2020/21 tax return.
People are being asked to take a "responsible approach". Officials declined to say what the penalties might be if you don't.
Can I claim now if I didn't the first time?
Image: Getty Images/Caiaimage) Getty Images/Caiaimage)
Yes.
HMRC says it will contact all potentially eligible customers, "including those who did not claim for the first grant", to advise them they can claim for a second and final SEISS grant.
Anyone adversely affected by coronavirus since July 14 is eligible.
When will the money be paid?
The money is supposed to land in bank accounts within six working days of making a claim.
Applications are open until October 17.
What are the problems?
The government has made clear that today's grant is the "final" one self-employed people will receive.
Critics say the help hasn't nearly been enough, and comes up short when compared to that offered to furloughed workers.
Many people aren't eligible for the scheme (see above), while others lost out because they paid themselves through dividends or sacrificed profit to reinvest.
The government insists other loan schemes are available for business owners, but that hasn't stopped many falling through the cracks.
While some self-employed workers have been able to restart their businesses since lockdown ended, many have not.
Some, like caterers, beauticians and those who work in live entertainment, are trying to make their businesses work around social distancing guidelines still likely to be in place in the autumn.
Others, such as taxi drivers, plumbers and electricians, are unlikely to see demand for their services return to normal if the economy fails to recover from the sharpest fall on record.
Ms Dodds added: “Without flexible, targeted support beyond the autumn, hundreds of thousands more self-employed workers will lose out and Johnson’s jobs crisis will get much worse.
“Britain’s entrepreneurs and innovators don’t need a permanent helping hand, just targeted support to see them through the crisis and get back on their feet.
“Instead of pushing them towards a financial cliff edge, the Government should empower them to do what they do best – build great British businesses.”
What if I didn't make a profit?
If you didn't make a profit over the last three years (or the most recent year if you're new) you can't claim under this scheme.
This will punish people who chose to pour funds into their business to run at a loss or draw on savings.
Treasury officials decided not to base the scheme on revenues because it would make it "skewed" towards businesses with a higher cash flow.
Some people's revenues are also very high and don't reflect the amount of money they actually take home.
What if I pay myself through dividends?

If you pay yourself through dividends, you're not eligible for this scheme.
This is because the tax system can't distinguish people who pay themselves through dividends from those who claim dividends from shares.
This will punish anyone who chose that method to draw their income from self-employment.
However, if you paid yourself a salary through PAYE, you can claim a grant worth 80% of wages through the government's separate scheme for employed people.
