This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

Laura Whitmore and Iain Stirling have joined the cast of Celebrity Gogglebox for the show’s latest season.

As of Friday 5 June, the Love Island hosts, who are also in a relationship, will be letting viewers see inside their home during lockdown as part of a new series of the celebrity spin-off show.

Sharing a picture sat on their sofa, Whitmore wrote on Instagram: “New Gogglebox coming soon (I’m in charge of the remote as you can see),” adding the hashtag: “#fromlockdownwithlove.”

Also allowing us to watch them watch the TV are I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! winner Harry Redknapp and his wife Sandra; Zoe Ball and her son, The Circle contestant Woody; and boxer Nicola Adams and her partner Ella.

Having appeared on Celebrity Gogglebox before, Nick Grimshaw will be returning to the show with his niece Liv, along with Loose Women‘s Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash, and Denise Van Outen and her partner Eddie.

The regular series of Gogglebox has been entertaining the nation during coronavirus lockdown, with the show’s families commenting on the government’s daily briefings while maintaining social distancing guidelines in their own homes.

Meanwhile, Celebrity Gogglebox USA began airing on E4 in May, with Meghan Trainor, Rob Lowe and Raven-Symoné all taking part.
