Next up is Blue Peter'sHelen Skelton, who's also doing some Olympic TV work; she's quit Twitter over some horrendous trolling, while Kirstie Allsopp has a fight on her hands too.

So here's a bunch of celebrities reading the hate tweets they receive on Jimmy Kimmel. Read More >>
Rick and Erica Jones have been trying to adopt a baby for the past three years.
