MYLEENE Klass took her brand new £100k baby blue G Wagon for a spin as she enjoyed a day of shopping in London.
The Smooth Radio star, 46, was spotted driving the flashy set of wheels around Hampstead High Street on Monday.

Loose Women’s Myleene was seen getting into her Mercedes after some retail therapy.
The I’m A Celebrity star looked chic in a stripped blue and white shirt, a pair of loose fitted jeans and a blue cap with oversized sunglasses.
The TV favourite flashed a big smile as she strolled down the street before jumping into her four-wheel SUV.
She was seen holding a small black shopping bag and wore a Chanel handbag around her.
She rocked the jaw-dropping ensemble as she made her way through London over the weekend to host her radio show.
The stunning star was head-to-toe in black, with black lace legs and a matching lace bodysuit.
The presenter accessorised the unique look with a black cropped designer hoodie and black trainers.
It comes just weeks after Myleene revealed what really gets her in the mood during an appearance on Loose Women.
Referencing Brooke Shields‘ autobiography, in which she details her thoughts on sex as a 59-year-old woman, Jane Moore put the same question to her fellow panelists.
Myleene, who shares five-year-old daughter Ava with her husband Graham Quinn, revealed what gets her turned on now she’s a busy mum.
The model explained that when it comes to getting in the mood for women, it’s a’ slow burn’.
“I think all these ideas of tequila and setting the mood and music, it’s not about those five minutes, it’s about the whole day,” she said.
“It’s about the cup of tea, it’s about kindness, put a shelf up and things are going to look way more promising for the evening.”
Myleene went on to say that being proactive about tasks in the home and looking after your partner and family is her idea of “foreplay.”
“It’s not just what goes on in the bedroom, it’s actually what goes on in your relationship,” she continued.
And while she acknowledged that society doesn’t find this idea as “enticing,” she said that putting time and effort into a relationship is the biggest turn on.
“It’s not all about lace and lotion, it’s about conversations, a cup of tea, and some DIY,” she said as she cringed at all the money she had previously spent on lingerie.

The 2025 NFL Draft doesn’t have a lot of can’t-miss prospects or well-known quarterbacks and wide receivers at the top of Round 1, which has led many to label the class “weak.” However, plenty of good players will come off the board in the first few rounds, especially at the unglamorous interior offensive and defensive […]

AS spring approaches, many homeowners are turning their attention to sprucing up their gardens
From weeding the flower beds to trimming the hedge and planting some hardy flowers, there’s plenty that can be done already.
AlamyA DIY pro says there’s a cheaper alternative to using a brush for painting your fence[/caption]
And your fence may also need some sprucing up after a cold and wet winter.
Whilst the traditional paint brush may be your go-to for painting fences, a DIY expert is recommending a surprising alternative that will save you time and money.
Simon Wardle, owner of fencing supplier, Armstrong Cheshire, is advising homeowners to ditch paint brushes which can lead to aching arms and uneven coverage.
Instead, the DIY pro recommends using a simple dish sponge.
He says: “The flexibility and porousness of a sponge makes it the perfect tool for painting your fence.
“It can mold around and reach into any nooks and indentations in the wood, allowing for smooth coverage even on the most textured fence panels.”
The repetitive motion that comes with brush painting can be a real physical challenge and cause significant aches and pains.
But, according to Simon, using a sponge can substantially reduce the strain on your arms.
“Using a sponge significantly reduces the physical strain associated with traditional brush application”, he adds.
“Their lighter weight and efficient coverage minimises repetitive motions, resulting in a more comfortable and productive job.”
Not only is sponge-painting easier on the arms, it’s also much quicker and far more affordable.
At Tesco, you can grab a six-pack of sponges for just 75p, whilst a fence paint brush can be anywhere from £5-15.
If you’re looking to tackle this outdoor task, Simon also offers up additional tips to get the best results.
He says: “Using a primer will protect the fence from weather damage and create a strong bond between wood and paint, ensuring the paint adheres better and lasts longer.
“Use a power washer or a stiff-bristle brush to remove dirt and debris from the surface, as this prevents future peeling or blistering.
“Always give your fence a second layer to enhance the colour and extend the life of your paint job.”

CELTIC are aiming to bounce back from Easter Road disappointment when hosting Aberdeen on Tuesday.
It’s now just one win from their last four games for Brendan Rodgers’ men after their loss to Hibs and they’ll be hoping home comforts will see them return to winning ways.
SunSport betting experts have previewed the game and selected the best bets, tips and exclusive sign-up bonuses from our leading betting partners.
Nobody can argue that Daizen Maeda has been Celtic’s standout player this season, with Nicolas Kuhn having a decent start to the season and Alistair Johnston the only other to run him close.
Nine goals and three assists in his last six starts is a phenomenal return and whether playing from the left or through the middle, he’s constantly finding himself with chances to score.
Those numbers could probably be higher when you consider he had an equaliser chalked off on Saturday and two golden chances at the Allianz.
Remains terrific value in the scoring markets, too….

Remember to gamble responsibly
A responsible gambler is someone who:
Establishes time and monetary limits before playing
Only gambles with money they can afford to lose
Never chase their losses
Doesn’t gamble if they’re upset, angry, or depressed
Additionally 48 per cent wanted clearer information on how to make a complaint.
Dr Jennifer Harris, head of policy and research at TDS Group said: “Tenants are hungry for better, easy to access information to enforce their rights and hold criminal landlords to account. The gateway will do just that, ensuring renters know where to go for the help they need, when they need it.
“Empowering tenants like this will be vital if the government’s ambitions of a better private rented sector are to become a reality.”
The platform has been launched ahead of the passing of the Renters’ Rights Bill, which will greatly increase the rights of private-sector tenants.
When passed the bill is expected to end fixed-term tenancies, introduce a decent home standard, establish a new ombudsman and protect families in receipt of benefits from discrimination.
It will also end the practise of tenants being forced from their homes under Section 21 notices, also known as “no fault” evictions.
The bill is expected to become law in late summer or autumn and will increase the obligations on landlords to address issues in a timely manner.
Dan Wilson Craw, deputy chief executive at Generation Rent, said: “One of the biggest barriers to improving private rented homes is the sheer number of bodies that play a role in enforcing tenant protections, and the confusion this creates among renters themselves.
“As the government implements the reforms currently going through parliament it is essential that private renters can access free, clear and useful resources and information. This new gateway offers tenants an easy-to-use tool, tailored to their needs – empowering them to make their next moves informed and with confidence.”
There are already many rules landlords need to follow and if they don’t renters could be entitled to compensation.
These include obligations to ensure properties are mould-free and to complete repairs in a timely manner.
If your landlord has failed to do this you could be entitled to have a proportion of your rent refunded.
There are also strict rules on the fees landlords can charge and how they should manage your money, including your deposit.

A NEW train service launching next year will connect two seaside towns in Cornwall for the first time.
Soon holidaymakers and locals in Cornwall will be able to board an hourly service from Newquay to Falmouth.
AlamyNewquay (pictured) and Falmouth will be connected by a direct train service for the first time in their history next year[/caption]
AlamyThe new direct journey will call at six stations, including Newquay, Par, St Austell, Truro, Penryn and Falmouth[/caption]
The new train route will run direct trains between the coasts for the first time, according to Network Rail.
Currently, Brits who want to take a train from Newquay to Falmouth need to change services in St Austell.
This involves boarding both a bus and a train, with public transport journeys taking over two hours.
Newquay is one of Cornwall‘s most popular seaside towns and is a known surfing hotspot.
While Falmouth isn’t as well known as Newquay, the charming coastal town does have a picturesque harbour.
Construction work on the new route has already started, with 500 metres of new track and a new crossing being installed at Newquay Train Station where a second platform is being built.
The new direct journey will call at six stations, including Newquay, Par, St Austell, Truro, Penryn and Falmouth.
When the services launch in 2026, they will run every hour.
Other details, such as ticket prices and departure times, are yet to be announced.
The new train route is part of a Mid Cornwall Metro Project, which is seeking to improve rail journeys in the county.
£56.8million is being pumped into the Mid Cornwall Metro Project, most of which has come from the Government’s Levelling Up Fund.
Improvements to five Cornish train stations will also take place under the plans, including Newquay, Roche, Bugle, Par and Penryn.
The new direct train route and improvement work to the stations will see an additional 700,000 seats per year added
Bogdan Lupu, the project director from Network Rail, told the BBC: “It’s a single track line, so we can’t run a lot of trains.
“The loop is going to enable us to pass more trains so we’ll be able to run a train every hour.
“In the summer, you’re going to be able to run both local trains and London-Paddington trains to Newquay, which is going to be great for the local community and for visitors. It will change the face of Newquay.”
Elsewhere in the UK, PortisheadRailway Station could reopen within the next two years, more than seven decades after its previous railway hub was demolished.
And a new £96million train station is set to open in trendy UK neighbourhood compared to New York.
Liverpool Baltic Station will be located in the city’s Baltic Triangle, which has previously been likened toNew YorkCity’s meatpacking district.
Sun Travel's favourite train journeys in the world
Sun Travel's journalists have taken their fare share of train journeys on their travels and here they share their most memorable rail experiences.
Davos to Geneva, Switzerland
“After a ski holiday in Davos, I took the scenic train back to Geneva Airport. The snow-covered mountains and tiny alpine villages that we passed were so beautiful that it felt like a moving picture was playing beyond the glass.” – Caroline McGuire
Tokyo to Kyoto by Shinkansen
“Nothing quite beats the Shinkansen bullet train, one of the fastest in the world. It hardly feels like you’re whizzing along at speed until you look outside and see the trees a green blur. Make sure to book seat D or E too – as you’ll have the best view of Mount Fuji along the way.” Kara Godfrey
London to Paris by Eurostar
“Those who have never travelled on the Eurostar may wonder what’s so special about a seemingly ordinary train that takes you across the channel. You won’t have to waste a moment and can tick off all the top attractions from the Louvre to the Champs-Élysées which are both less than five kilometres from the Gare du Nord.” – Sophie Swietochowski
Glasgow to Fort William by Scotrail
“From mountain landscapes and serene lochs to the wistful moors, I spent my three-hour journey from Glasgow to Fort William gazing out the window. Sit on the left-hand side of the train for the best views overlooking Loch Lomond.” – Hope Brotherton
Beijing to Ulaanbatar
“The Trans-Mongolian Express is truly a train journey like no other. It starts amid the chaos of central Beijing before the city’s high-rises give way to crumbling ancient villages and eventually the vast vacant plains of Mongolia, via the Gobi desert. The deep orange sunset seen in the middle of the desert is among the best I’ve witnessed anywhere.” – Ryan Gray
