Olivia Molly Rogers has recalled the horrifying moment she went to the toilet in her bedroom and blamed it on her dog.

The former Miss Australia revealed to Laura Byrne and Brittany Hockley on the Life Uncut podcast that one of her most embarrassing moments happened after a night of underage drinking.

Explaining the story, she said: ' My sister and I got invited to a formal, I was in year 11 and she was in year 12, we had a few drinks which was naughty, underage drinking I do not recommend it but that's what we were doing.

'We had a really fun night, we were the last to leave the afterparty, the DJ dropped us home and it was the middle of winter and I went to bed with trackies on, a jumper on, a dressing gown, socks, so many clothes because I was freezing.

'So I went to bed with all these clothes on and I woke up the next morning with my dressing gown still on, my jumper still on, my socks still on, but my pants were off.'

The model was just a teenager when the incident happened

The model said she then saw her pants and underwear on the floor beside her bed, as if she had just stepped out of them.

'And then I felt around and the side of my bed and it was wet,' she continued.

'I think I sort of slept walked because I stood up, took my pants down, sat on the side of my bed, did a little wee, and laid back down and went to sleep.'

Olivia added that she was 'so embarrassed' and was worried her mother would disown her, so she blamed it on their family dog.

On the Life Uncut podcast, Olivia Molly said she woke up confused the next morning when her pants weren't on

'So [my mum] was going past my room and I was cleaning up and she was like ""What are you doing?"" so I said ""I think our Jack Russel Buster cocked his leg beside the bed.'

The hosts were in hysterics after she told the story, and Laura admitted that she once wet the bed too - and she wasn't even drunk.

'As an adult I had a dream that I was in a pool, which is even worse because who pisses in a pool and doesn't get out,' she laughed.

'But I had a dream that I was floating around in a pool, I wasn't drunk, not hungover, and I woke up as an adult wetting the bed and thought, ""Wow, this is wild"".'

Hosted by Today entertainment reporter Brooke Boney and Today Extra's David Campbell, the all-star concert was held to raise money for sick kids via Vision Australia.

The lineup of musicians performing carols included pop star Cody Simpson, ARIA recipient Sam Fischer, Australian Idol winner Casey Donovan and former Wiggle Emma Watkins.

Brooke dazzled as she posed for publicity photos during the festive spectacle, clad in a red Grecian-inspired red gown with a train and one-shoulder detailing.

Elsewhere during the show, she changed into a white lace midi dress with puff sleeves.

Her co-host David meanwhile looked schmick in a blue suit and white button-up shirt.

Casey Donovan, Marina Prior, Bobby Fox and Rob Mills also performed on-stage.

For the first time, the event also welcomed 24 singers from the Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir.

The choir performed a carol in traditional Western Arrernte and Pitjantjatjara languages.

Singer songwriter Lara Nahkle gleamed in a navy long-sleeved gown as she sang and played piano

There were also performances from the Australian Girls Choir and the National Boys Choir.

Carols by Candlelight is Vision Australia's largest annual fundraiser for children's services.

The popular event has been held on Christmas Eve since 1938.

The 41-year-old supermodel — who is currently enjoying a family ski vacation in Utah – posted a romantic picture on Instagram Thursday of her and Lee snuggling on a couch.

'Baby it’s cold outside,' Alessandra captioned the post, adding heart, fire and snowflake emojis.

The Brazilian beauty and her model beau oozed happiness as they melted in each other's arms, soaking up the heat of a crackling fire.

The couple were joined by Alessandra's mother Lucilda Ambrosio and her adorable nephew.

Munching on a little pot of fondue, Alessandra and her loved ones appeared to be throughly enjoying their luxurious surroundings.

The runway stunner and her family are staying at the five-star Montage Deer Valley ski resort in Park City, Utah, which is both a skiing destination and the site of the Sundance Film Festival

With rooms starting at nearly $2K per night this time of year, the Montage is certainly a grand place to spend the holiday season.

Five-star surroundings: The runway stunner and her family are staying at the five-star Montage Deer Valley ski resort in Park City, Utah. With rooms starting at nearly $2K per night this time of year, the Montage is certainly a grand place to spend the holiday season

Surrounded by incredible views and sensational skiing, Alessandra has been hitting the slopes in style with her handsome boyfriend.

The couple have been dating since February of last year, jumpstarting their romance after Alessandra split from her long-term partner, entrepreneur Jamie Mazur, 41.

Together for 13 years, Ambrosio and Mazur share two children — 14-year-old Anja and 10-year-old Noah — who accompanied their glamorous mother to Park City.

The bombshell has brought her fashion A-game to the mountains as she has continuously rocked a series of chic ski looks.

Favoring skiwear from Perfect Moment, Alessandra has donned two stylish looks that don't come cheap.

Earlier this week, Ambrosio bundled up in a figure-hugging navy 'Allos' ski suit with red and white panels that retails for $1,090, according to the brand's website.

She's since gone on to model a $320 white 'Piste Merino' wool sweater for her Instagram story, pairing it with $590 'Talia' metallic pants.

And the catwalk star later donned a $770 oversized metallic parka when she hit the slopes, bringing her grand total for that day's look to $1,680.

The price tags of her stylish beanies remain a mystery, but she recently slipped into some pricey Gucci lingerie.","<article>

Sergio Garcia says Rory McIlroy is 'lacking maturity' for ending their friendship when the Spaniard joined LIV... and claims the World No 3 'doesn't respect' him and has no desire to EVER repair their relationship,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/golf/article-11787661/Sergio-Garcia-says-Rory-McIlroy-lacking-maturity-ending-friendship-LIV.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/golf/article-11787661/Sergio-Garcia-says-Rory-McIlroy-lacking-maturity-ending-friendship-LIV.html,2023-02-24T03:39:20+00:00,"Sergio Garcia has branded Rory McIlroy as immature for ending their friendship because the Spaniard left the PGA Tour for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf circuit.

The duo's friendship in years gone by was well known - McIlroy was a groomsman at Garcia's 2017 wedding and they competed together in Ryder Cup teams.

But when Spaniard Garcia quit the PGA Tour to take the millions on offer from LIV, it signaled the end of his relationship with McIlroy, who has by far been the most vociferous critic of LIV.

'I think it is very sad,' Garcia, 43, told The Telegraph. 'I think that we've done so many things together and had so many experiences that for him to throw that away just because I decided to go to a different tour, well, it doesn't seem very mature; lacking maturity, really.

'But Rory's got his own life and he makes his own choices, the same way that I make mine. I respect his choices, but it seems like he doesn't respect the ones I make. So a one-way street.'

Garcia insisted that he moved to LIV because the organization listens to every player and not just a couple - which appeared to be a thinly veiled suggestion that the PGA Tour favor views from McIlroy and another close friend, Tiger Woods.

'We had so much criticism when we started off last June that it unified us all together and that included with the bosses, 'he said.

'You can suggest things, ideas, and although they are not always followed up and acted upon, you are listened to.

'That didn't happen on the PGA Tour. There are only two, maybe three players who the bosses listen to on that Tour.'

McIlroy recently said he had deleted Garcia's number off his phone and the Spaniard texted him 'basically telling me to shut up about LIV, blah, blah, blah'.

And last September, the 33-year-old McIlroy claimed he is not friendly terms with any LIV player, saying: 'I wouldn’t say I’ve got much of a relationship with them at the minute.

'Their best days are behind them. I haven’t done anything different. They are the ones that have made that decision. I can sit here and keep my head held high.'

The first LIV event of the year starts on Friday in Mexico, where players are competing for a share of a $25m prizefund.

For now, Garcia and McIlroy remain on separate paths but they will compete in the same tournament at the 2023 Masters at the beginning of April.

The first major of the golfing calendar runs from April 6-9 at Augusta National in Georgia.

Garcia won there in 2017 while for McIlroy, it is the one major title that eludes him. Last year he was a runner-up but was three shots behind winner Scottie Scheffler.","<article>

The Block's Omar and Oz break their silence on claims they asked 'Mr Lambo' to be a dummy bidder: 'Couldn't be further from the truth',https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11396617/The-Block-2022-auctions-Omar-Oz-deny-Mr-Lambo-dummy-bidder.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11396617/The-Block-2022-auctions-Omar-Oz-deny-Mr-Lambo-dummy-bidder.html,2022-11-06T21:17:48+00:00,"One half of The Block's winning team has addressed baseless claims they used a dummy bidder to drive up the price of their winning home.

Some viewers have accused Omar Slaimankhel and Oz Malik of asking their friend Adrian Portelli, an online promotions guru with a net worth of $8million, to bid on their home in order to push eventual buyer Danny Wallis into paying a higher price.

But Omar told Fitzy and Wippa on Monday this 'couldn't be further from the truth'.

'The rumour that's getting around is that Adrian Portelli... was actually a dummy bidder. Although registered, he was just pushing the price up,' said radio host Michael 'Wippa' Wipfli.

Omar denied this was the case and also downplayed their friendship with Portelli.

'We reached out to everyone that Oz and I knew. We asked so many people to come through and see the house,' he said.

'We actually reached out to a mutual friend and they kind of suggested that he [Portelli] might be interested and he wanted to come have a look at the house.

'And when he did come, he absolutely loved it,' Omar continued. 'He said he loved his views from our house.'

Wipfli then asked if Portelli had the money to buy the house, to which Omar replied: 'He is very, very, very, very successful. He's got a lot of businesses. He's just a very, very successful businessman.'

Portelli has also spoken about the auction day controversy, taking to Instagram late Sunday night to deny claims he conspired with Omar and Oz to drive up the price.

'For everyone questioning the legitimacy of the auction, I was a genuine buyer with every intention to purchase that property,' the businessman said.

'Nobody is to blame for what happened. It's an auction. Believe it or not, but if you've got two people that genuinely want the property, a bidding war will commence.'

'I'm happy to show my bank account for anyone that suggests these were dummy bids,' he concluded.","<article>

The man with the golden TAN: Former Bond star Sean Connery soaks up the sun in Miami...just days after urging for an independent Scotland,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2590863/Sean-Connery-soaks-sun-Miami-just-days-urging-independent-Scotland.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2590863/Sean-Connery-soaks-sun-Miami-just-days-urging-independent-Scotland.html,2014-03-27T15:57:41+00:00,"He has been vocal on the forthcoming Scottish Independence vote, but Sean Connery has distanced himself from the politics of the ballot box - both geographically and mentally - by enjoying a break in Miami, Florida, this week.

The 83 year-old star, who epitomised James Bond during the 1960s, was seen in the sunshine state on Wednesday.

Accompanied by his wife, Micheline Roquebrune, he was a million miles away from the forthcoming referendum which will decide the future of Scotland, and its 307-year association with England, on 18 September.

Dressing down in chinos and a flat-cap, the Hollywood star - who was born in Edinburgh - looked relaxed as she reclined in an outside restaurant.

Given his recent impassioned comments on the forthcoming referendum, he is likely to welcome the down time.

The star recently said that an independent Scotland is an opportunity 'too good to miss' and ending the union with England would help boost artistic creation north of their common border. A long-term supporter of separation, the Bahamas resident evens said he could return to his native land if it became independent.

'As a Scot and as someone with a lifelong love for both Scotland and the arts, I believe the opportunity of independence is too good to miss,' Connery wrote in an article for the New Statesman.

'Simply put - there is no more creative an act than creating a new nation,' he said.

Connery, who conceded that independence was a matter for the people who live and work in Scotland, argued that a 'yes' verdict would boost that country's film and creative industries.

Not shaken, but stirred by politics: The actor has said an independent Scotland is an opportunity too good to miss

'Scotland has an opportunity to make a step change,' he wrote. 'More than anything else, culture defines a country. It provides international visibility and stimulates global interest more than a nation's politics, business or economy ever can.

'So, with our colourful history, strong identity, deep rooted traditions, a commitment to artistic innovation and diverse and beautiful landscapes, Scotland is truly blessed.'

Also on Tuesday - the day Connery's comments will be published - Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond will deliver a lecture in London about independence.

Salmond is heading the campaign for secession, battling London's efforts to prevent a ""yes"" verdict by undermining his Scottish National Party's central case that oil-rich Scotland could be a prosperous independent nation.

Financial heavyweights such as the Edinburgh-based Standard Life and the Royal Bank of Scotland have voiced concerns about uncertainties over currency, regulation, and tax regimes in the event of Scottish independence.

By contrast, the head of the International Airlines Group, the owner of British Airways, said it could be good for business.","<article>

Princess Charlene's night off? Prince Albert of Monaco treats twins Princess Gabriella and Prince Jacques to night at the circus in Monte Carlo,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11666169/Charlenes-night-Prince-Albert-treats-Princess-Gabriella-Prince-Jacques-night-circus.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11666169/Charlenes-night-Prince-Albert-treats-Princess-Gabriella-Prince-Jacques-night-circus.html,2023-01-23T12:06:01+00:00,"Prince Albert of Monaco was all smiles as he treated his twins Princess Gabriella and Prince Jacques to a night at the circus yesterday evening.

The European royal, 64, attended the 45th International Circus Festival in Monte Carlo over the weekend, following its grand opening last week.

The family were joined by Albert's niece Camille Gottlieb, 24, and nephew Louis Ducruet, 30 - who are his sister Princess Stephanie's children.

Ahead of the show, Princess Gabriella, eight, and her cousin Camille accepted a bunch of flowers each from cast members who came out to greet them on the red carpet.

After posing for a family photo, the party - which was missing Prince Albert's wife Princess Charlene - took their seats in the royal box.

Prince Albert's late father Prince Ranier was the brains behind the first International Circus Festival, which now as then, specialises in traditional circus acts from clowns to acrobats.

The festival is an annual event in the principality and has been running since 1974.

However, this is the first time since the pandemic struck that the festival has been able to go ahead.

For the 45th International Circus Festival, magician Peter Marvey will be taking to the stage alongside clown Mister Lorenzo Carnevale and tiger-tamer Bruno Togni.

Last week, Prince Albert's sister Princess Stephanie, 57, attended the grand opening of the festival and happily posed for pictures with a parrot perched on her shoulder.

Stephanie, a patron of the awe-inspiring show, helps to oversee the Circus Festival and is involved in everything from choosing the acts to the choreography.

Although Princess Charlene didn't make an appearance at last night's family outing, her husband confirmed they will be both be attending King Charles' coronation in May.

Stephanie's father Prince Ranier was the brains behind the first festival, which was held in the principality in 1974

The royal spoke fondly of the British King ahead of his 6 May coronation, calling him 'a very educated man and someone with a great sense of humour'.

Speaking to PEOPLE, Albert confirmed he and his wife Princess Charlene would attend, adding: 'I'm certain that it's going to be an incredible ceremony and a very moving one.'

The event will be amongst the highest profile attended by Charlene since her recent illness, which saw her spending 11 months away from the Mediterranean principality in her native South Africa, undergoing treatment for an unspecified condition.

Albert added: 'We've maintained contact since His Majesty became King, but I haven't talked to him personally since the Queen's funeral.'

Prince Albert went onto reveal that himself and his wife Princess Charlene, will definitely be at the ceremony to watch the king's crowning, however their 8-year-old twins Hereditary Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella might be 'too young'.

News of the couple's attendance comes after Prince Albert praised his wife, Princess Charlene, for 'turning it around in an incredible way' after a long-running health battle.

Speaking in December, the 64-year-old royal told People he was 'really proud of my wife,' adding: 'Charlene's doing really well.'

He continued: 'As you know, last year was a very tough year for her - and the beginning of this year.'

Albert added that after being admitted to a Swiss treatment facility for exhaustion and keeping out of the limelight, Charlene, 44, has been 'active in any number of different events.'

He highlighted a number of events where the former Olympic swimmer had been visible at lately, including a recent outing to the Monaco branch of the Red Cross.

'She's really enjoying doing things together and with the kids, so this year is ending on a very, a very high note. We're truly thrilled about how things are,' Albert said.","<article>

<p>He highlighted a number of events where the former Olympic swimmer had been visible at lately, including a recent outing to the Monaco branch of the Red Cross.</p>

<p>'She's really enjoying doing things together and with the kids, so this year is ending on a very, a very high note. We're truly thrilled about how things are,' Albert said.</p>

Big Brother legend Nadia Almada is unrecognisable with bleached blonde hair 19 years after winning the show,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11693247/Big-Brother-Nadia-Almada-unrecognisable-19-years-winning-show.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11693247/Big-Brother-Nadia-Almada-unrecognisable-19-years-winning-show.html,2023-01-30T18:11:32+00:00,"Legendary Big Brother housemate Nadia Almada looks totally different 19 years after winning the classic reality television show.

The TV personality, 46 - who went on to train as a Sassoon hairdresser after winning the fifth series in 2004 and now works as a stylist - recently took to Instagram to share a picture of herself with bleached blonde hair.

Her new style is quite different from the look she sported on the programme - when her hair was black in colour, with a short wavy bob.

Nadia won the hearts of the nation as the first ever transgender contestant to walk through the doors of the Big Brother house.

She chose not to reveal the fact she was transgender to her housemates but the viewing public were informed.

The star lasted the full 71 days in the Big Brother house and emerged triumphant, taking home £63,500 in prize money after securing a huge 74% of the overall vote.

Nadia was concerned she was concerned she would be judged by the British public for keeping her transgender identity a secret but her quick wit and fiery temper kept viewers entertained.

When she was announced the winner by host Davina McCall, she screamed with joy as she beat fellow contestants Jason Cowan and Daniel Bryan who made up the final three with her.

Before deciding on becoming a hairdresser, Nadia pursued a television career and even released a single in 2004 called A Little Bit of Action which reached number 27 in the charts.

Nadia returned to the Big Brother house in 2010 when she took part in Ultimate Big Brother, the final series to air on Channel 4 before the programme moved to Channel 5.

Nadia was evicted from the Ultimate Big Brother house on day 11 of the series, with series two winner Brian Dowling winning the competition on day 18.

It comes as Big Brother is set to return to screens this year, with a reboot being picked up by ITV2 bosses.

ITV programmes boss Kevin Lygo has said he is 'overwhelmed' by viewers response after officially announcing the channel would be rebooting the reality show.

It was confirmed during the Love Island final in August that the TV favourite would have a new home on ITV2 and streaming service ITVX.

And while plans for the upcoming series are under wraps the TV producer admitted he hopes to convince narrator Marcus Bentley, who voiced all series of since its beginnings in 2000 with his distinctive Geordie drawl, to return.

Speaking last month to the Broadcasting Press Guild, Kevin said: 'People thought that Big Brother would never come back but we were overwhelmed by the response when we announced it.'

Before going on to speak of his hopes at signing Marcus and his iconic Geordie twang to once more be the voice of the show.

It comes after news that fans would have to wait until Autumn next year before the rebooted series returns to screens.

Now a date has been confirmed for the civilian edition of the programme, which last aired on Channel 5 in 2018.

While it was originally tipped to air in March, the programme has been delayed due to the number of entertainment shows airing on ITV at the start of 2023, such as winter Love Island and the All Stars edition of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!.

An ITV spokesperson told MailOnline: 'Owing to the influx of big reality TV programming on air during the first half of 2022 we have taken the decision to move the transmission of Big Brother to a more prominent slot in the Autumn.

'This gives our viewers a whole calendar of big reality TV formats across the year.'

MailOnline understands that the show will still air on ITV2 and ITVX and casting for the civilian series is now set to be extended until the summer.

Big Brother started as a social experiment in 2000 - going on to become a firm fixture of popular culture.

Ordinary members of the public entered the iconic house, skyrocketing to fame as they were watched 24/7 by the British public. While a celebrity version of the show with famous housemates also ran from 2000.

The experiment captured the hearts of millions, who could even tune in to the 24h live feed during the night.

It first aired on Channel 4 from 2000 to 2010 and was hosted by Davina McCall, 54, before it moved to Channel 5 until 2018 where it was presented by series two winner Brian Dowling, 43, and later Emma Willis, 46.

The show featured some iconic moments air over the years, with a staggering 3.5million people voting for Liverpudlian builder Craig Phillips from Seaforth, Merseyside to win the £70,000 prize in 2000 at the end of the first series.

It averaged at 5.8million viewers an episode by its third season - but figures dropped to just 2.9million an episode in 2009 thanks to competitions inspired by the very shows it spawned, such as The Only Way Is Essex, which was originally the brainchild of Big Brother series eight winner Brian Belo.","<article>

Local media reported that the left back was hit in the face as he left Beira-rio stadium in Porto Alegre.

Angry fans also kicked him as he sought refuge in the van that was picking him up outside the dressing rooms, according to the reports.

Under attack: Flamengo defender Andre Santos (right) was kicked and punched after his side's 4-0 defeat against Internacional

The former Brazil and Arsenal defender has failed to impress since signing for Flamengo in July last year and has been a constant target of fans.

That anger boiled over on Sunday as Flamengo lost again to find themselves rooted to the bottom of the league with just seven points from 11 games.

The Rio club had Chicao sent off in the first half and were no match for an Internacional side who are now one of five clubs with 19 points, six behind leaders Cruzeiro.

Corinthians are in second on 20 after getting a point in a drab 0-0 draw away at Vitoria.

Cruzeiro are the only team in the top half of the table to win both their games since the World Cup break and their 2-1 victory at Palmeiras on Sunday meant they extended their lead at the top of the table to five points.

Ricardo Goulart got a goal after seven minutes and Manuel headed home another three minutes later.

Palmeiras got one back after eight minutes of the second period through Tobio but could not grab what would have been a deserved equaliser.

The other big winners were newly promoted Chapecoense, who came to Sao Paulo on Saturday and beat the home side 1-0 in front of 43,075 fans, the biggest crowd of the weekend.","<article>

The Love Island host, 28, showcased her natural beauty in the snaps released on Tuesday, wearing next-to-nothing in one picture where she slipped into a black bra and knickers with a black leather trench coat on top.

Wearing little makeup for the occasion, Maya's lengthy brunette tresses were worn in a waved style and cascaded over her shoulders.

Maya looked gorgeous in the photographs where she posed up a storm for her latest brand deal.

Another picture showed the presenter wearing a bardot-style top which hugged her curvaceous figure and svelte waist.

She wore a natural palette of makeup, with her hair thrown into an up-do and accessorised with a pair of gold chunky hoop earrings.

Maya gave her best sultry stare in another snap, where she wore a lacy see-through bodycon dress which hugged every inch of her frame.

Her hair was styled in a straighter style, and she went makeup-free to show off her natural beauty.

The final shot from the latest campaign was a black and white picture, where she wore a cropped black crochet cardigan with metallic detailing on the buttons.

Her slender frame was on show in the snap ad she wore a pair of denim jeans and a black leather belt which synched in her waist.

Her slicked-back hair-do showed off her photogenic features and the shots really showed her beauty in a toned-down light in comparison to the glamorous looks displayed on Love Island.

It comes after Maya dressed to impress in a glamorous silver gown on Saturday evening as she hosted a lavish boat party following the BRIT Awards.

The Love Island presenter hosted the bash on the River Thames with Coca-Cola, launching their newest Creations product, a limited-edition drink called Movement

She looked incredible in the dazzling off the shoulder number which boasted a bold thigh high split.

Turning up the heat, the beauty added inches to her frame in a pair of towering strappy coordinated heels and accessorised with small hoop earrings.

Maya pulled her long dark tresses back in a chic updo and applied a flawless palette of makeup including to accentuate her beauty.

The beauty flashed her gorgeous smile as she made her way up the Savoy Pier following the star-studded evening.

Taking to the water, the night to remember was attended by guests including Jesse Lingard, AJ Odudu, Snoochie Shy, Chunks, Poet, Tiffany Calver, Craig Mitch and Mira May.

Coca-Cola Creations is the brand’s innovation platform delivering new product expressions driven by collaboration, creativity, and cultural connections.

The new product was developed in collaboration with Grammy-award winning artist, Rosalía.

Danny Hall, Senior Brand Manager at Coca-Cola said, 'Movement is the fourth Coca-Cola Creations limited edition that we’ve dropped in GB, and we wanted to do something special to mark its release.

'Partnering with Maya Jama’s Cling Cling Presents to develop a moving party filled with music and creativity was the perfect way to launch the product and celebrate the transformational power of music.'

Earlier in the evening Maya flaunted her figure at the BRIT Awards on the red carpet at the O2 Arena in London.

The TV host looked sensational and slipped into a figure-hugging strapless black dress for her red carpet arrival.

Her quirky frock boasted a bejewelled gold skeleton design that highlighted her ample cleavage and gorgeous curves.

Maya strutted her stuff in a pair of gold heels and completed the look with a pair of statement making earrings.

She oozed confidence as she posed for the cameras before heading inside to the star-studded ceremony.

Also at the event the former Love Island host Laura Whitmore and the show's new presenter Maya appeared to ignore each other while at the same table at the BRIT Awards.

The awkward moment happened as stars from the music world gathered for the annual event.

Pictures and video show the two women stood directly next to each other at the ITV table - but they only seem to be interested in speaking to othe

EXCLUSIVE: The New Year 15% price hike on pints: Drinkers face forking out over £7 for draft beer and cider from 2023 as brewer Heineken passes on 'unprecedented cost increases' to landlords - amid cost-of-living crisis,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11429931/Heineken-price-increases-London-pubgoers-face-7-pint-draft-beers-ciders.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11429931/Heineken-price-increases-London-pubgoers-face-7-pint-draft-beers-ciders.html,2022-11-15T16:26:56+00:00,"Heineken will increase the price of their beer and cider by more than 15 per cent after Christmas due to 'unprecedented cost increases'.

Punters will be have to shell out £7 or more for some draft Heineken beers from January 16, after the prices rise by an average of 15.8 per cent.

On top of increasing wholesale prices, the brewery also told landlords it will be reducing the alcohol content in Fosters, from 4 per cent to 3.7 per cent, citing 'consumer trends towards lower strength products'.

Looking at prices taken today from central London Green King pubs, the hikes could mean a Heineken Silver would go from £6.50 to 6.86 - up 36p.

Amstel would rise from £5.75 to £6.12 up 37p, Birra Moretti from £6.60 to £7.01 - up 41p, Kronenbourg 1664 from £5.75 to £6.07 - up 32p, Old Mout Berries and Cherries - from £6.45 to £6.86 up 41p and Fosters from £5.55 to £5.85 - up 30p.

Their draught lager range will rise on average by 36p per pint, with 15 per cent to 17 per cent hikes for all of them.

Other brands owned by Heineken include John Smiths, Red Stripe, Desperados, Tiger and Strongbow.

It comes as hard-pressed families face food prices rises due to inflation, soaring energy bills and fuel prices.

While pubs have also warned that they are being priced of business and have pleaded for a freeze to beer duty ahead of the upcoming Autumn statement.

The new plan is set to increase the duty in line with double-digit levels of inflation to save the Government around £600 million a year.

The British Beer and Pub Association said the industry needs the freeze after more than 50 pubs closed in a month - compared to around 30 a year prior.

An average pint in the UK was £2.30 in 2008, but the price of pints has increased since then by 72 per cent to an average of £3.95 in 2022. In London, an average pint costs far higher at £5.50, according to finder.com, and prices continue to increase.

In August, pension provider Penfold predicted the average cost of a pint will go up to £4.42 by 2025 and the cost of a pint in London would rise to an astronomical £13.98.

Budweiser said they are monitoring their prices after Heineken announced it was raising the price of beer in Ireland earlier this month.

'We are also facing increases in waste packaging and other taxes,' said a spokeswoman for the Budweiser Brewing Group to independent.ie.

'We evaluate our input costs and make necessary price adjustments on an ongoing basis while driving efficiencies in our business through sustainability and other initiatives.'

Diageo, who own Guinness and Johnnie Walker, chose not to share their wholesale prices but said they increased prices on Guinness back in June.

The average price of a pint of Guinness in Great Britain was £4.20 in June, up four per cent on the year before. In London the stout reached and average price of £4.73, up 3.8 per cent.

An email from Heineken seen by the MailOnline reads: 'Like many UK manufacturers, HEINEKEN UK is facing unprecedented cost increases on a number of critical inputs used to make and distribute Beer and Cider.

'This is predominantly driven by the significant rise in energy prices, which is also having a dramatic impact on the costs of other goods including glass, aluminum and malted barley.

'We are continually looking at ways to mitigate cost volatility and throughout the year we have taken a number of steps to drive greater efficiencies in our business. However, due to the scale of recent and ongoing input cost increases, it is necessary to change the price of our products.

The brewery also announced a new keg surcharge for the popular Birra Moretti brand at £1.20 per 50 litre kegs and £0.84 per 30 litre kegs.

Earlier this year Heineken bought craft brewery Beavertown for a sum thought to be more than £40million - but the brand does not appear on the list of beverages increasing in price in January.

In September, Paul Davies, CEO at Carlsberg Marston's Brewing Company, suggested the fall of the pound may cause a rise in beer prices.

He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the drop was 'worrying' for the British beer industry, which imports beer and hops from overseas.

Ahead of the Chancellor’s Autumn statement on November 17, pubs and brewers have been calling for the beer duty freeze to be reinstated as costs continue to rise and beer sales start to slow.

The British Beer and Pub Association published figures in an open letter to Jeremy Hunt, showing the average costs for pubs and brewers were up 22 per cent at the end of this summer compared to 2021.

The Association stressed that prices are forcing businesses to pass on costs to their customers at the bar and said the average price of a pint is up 8 per cent on last year.

Oliver Robinson, Joint Managing Director of Robinsons Brewery, who operate 260 pubs across the North West and North Wales said: 'For months there has been absolutely no let-up in the costs being piled onto our business.

'We are seeing unprecedented price increases across the business but especially on raw materials and if these were all passed on it would make the cost of a pint almost unaffordable in many pubs.'

Heineken has been contacted for a comment.

Battle of the brands vs the own brands: How savvy shoppers can save 70p switching from Cravendale to Asda milk, 85p trading Napolina spaghetti for Co-op's variety and 80p swapping Happy Eggs for Morrisons own

Families could save money this winter by switching from leading brands to cheaper supermarket alternatives
MailOnline has looked at leading brands compared with supermarket-own products in six supermarkets
Meanwhile, research found that everyday items such as milk, butter and eggs cost more than a year ago

By Elly Blake for MailOnline

Cash-strapped families could save money this winter by switching from leading brands to cheaper supermarket alternatives when purchasing everyday staple items such as milk, eggs, butter and spaghetti.

As British families are feeling the pinch this winter, with soaring energy bills and fuel price increases, data shows how some cupboard staples have risen significantly in the last 12 months.

It comes after Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said the UK's energy costs were set to soar from £40 billion in 2019 to an astonishing £190 billion this year as a result of the war in Ukraine, which has also seen food prices soar due to grain supplies.

That combined with mounting mortgage prices and soaring rent prices could result in a winter of misery for millions of Britons.

As many look for ways to save money to head off rising costs, here MailOnline analyses how swapping from leading brands to supermarket own products could make considerable savings to food shopping bills...

Cravendale semi-skimmed milk 4pt

FOUR PINTS OF SEMI-SKIMMED MILK

The average price of a four-pink of Cranvendale milk has risen by 60p, from £1.90 to £2.50, compared with the same period 12 months ago.

Meanwhile, the average cost a supermarket own-brand semi-skimmed milk (4pt) has gone up by 40p from £1.20 to £1.60 since November 2021.

A four-pint of Cravendale semi-skimmed milk will set British shoppers back £2.70 in Co-op, compared to its own-brand price of £1.85, representing a saving of 85p.

In Asda, shoppers could save 70p by switching to the supermarket brand and £1.15 in Sainsbury's.

A saving of £1.14 could be made in Morrisons by ditching Cravendale's, while going for Tesco, Waitrose and Co-op brands could save you 80p, £1 and 85p respectively.

SPAGHETTI - 500g

Spaghetti is another everyday staple that has soared in price due to the cost of living crisis.

While the average price of own-brand spaghetti has jumped from 78p to £1.09 across six of the leading supermarkets, Napolina's offering has also gone up in price since last year, on average from £1.20 to £1.50.

Despite rises across the board, shoppers could still save by switching.

By swapping to Asda's own brand 500g spaghetti, you could save 55p. In Sainsbury's making the change would cutback by 65p, and a saving of 60p could be made in Morrisons.

Meanwhile, going for own-brand versions in Tesco, Waitrose and Co-op could save you 55p, 60p and 85p respectively.

TUNA CHUNKS IN BRINE

Canned tuna is packed full of omega-3 fatty acids which have health benefits for your brain and body.

Soaring food costs have hit the tinned fish less than other products, with the average price of supermarket brands raising by just six pence from 92p to 98p within the 12 month period.

Last year, the average cost of a tin of Princes tuna would cost £1.30, rising to £1.50 in November 2022.

Savings of 71p could be made in Asda by swapping from Princes to the supermarket own-brand.

A tin of Princes would cost £1.50 in Morrisons versus a tin of their own-brand alternative costing 99p, a difference of 51p.

Meanwhile savings of 45p could be made in Sainsbury's and 65p in Tesco. It was not possible to compare prices for Co-op and Waitrose.

HALF A DOZEN EGGS

Eggs are another cupboard staple item that have seen a sharp rise during the cost of living crisis.

Analysis found that on average, the cost of six medium free range eggs in six of the leading supermarkets have risen by 32p since this time last year, from 98p to £1.30.

Meanwhile, a pack of half a dozen medium free range Happy Egg's cost on average 21p, more than they did 12 months ago.

Asda shoppers could make a saving of 15p by switching tot he supermarket own-brand product, while those who shop in Sainsbury's could pocket an extra 35p.

The largest saving by switching to a supermarket alternative was found in Tesco, where customers could save 55p by going from a leading brand to an own-brand product. A direct comparison was not possible for Morrisons, Waitrose or Co-op.

Lurpak butter 250g unsalted

Fairy washing up liquid

BUTTER - 250g

The price of butter has also spiked since last year, with it costing 60p more than 12 months ago after the average price rose from £1.60 to £2.20.

Meanwhile, the average cost of a block of Lurpak across the six leading supermarkets has also risen from £1.90 to £2.40 within the last year.

In Asda, switching to its own 250g of butter would save shoppers 15p, while a saving of 26p could be made in Sainsbury's.

A saving of 61p could be made in Morrisons, while sticking with Lurpak would be the most cost-effective option in Tesco and Waitrose as swapping to an own-brand alternative would cost 25p and 55p more respectively.

However, swapping in Co-op would see huge savings of £1.30.

WASHING UP LIQUID

Washing up liquid is another everyday essential item that has risen during the cost of living crisis.

Last year, a bottle would set shoppers back 57p on average, rising to 71p this year.

Meanwhile, the leading brand average price of the leading brand Fairy has stayed the same compared to 12 months ago, costing £1.14.

However, switching from Fairy to a supermarket own brand product in Asda could save you 45p and 55p in Sainsbury's.

Swapping to a Morrisons own-brand product would result in a 25p saving, whereas Tesco, Waitrose and Co-op would see savings of 56p, 50p and 25p respectively.

MATURE CHEEDAR CHEESE

The average price of a block of Cathedral City cheddar has risen by 53p, from £2.77 to £3.30, compared with the same period 12 months ago.

Meanwhile, the average cost a supermarket own-brand cheddar cheese across four leading supermarkets has gone up by 86p from £2.96 to £2.10 since November 2021.

A block of Cathedral cheese and supermarket own brand cheese both cost £3 in Asda.

In Tesco, shoppers could save £2 by switching to the supermarket brand and 25p in Sainsbury's.

Cathedral city is 75p cheaper than the supermarket alternative in Morrisons, costing £3.25 compared to £3.99.

Meanwhile, supermarket own-brand foods and everyday items such as spaghetti and washing up liquid vary widely in price, analysis can reveal.

The average cost of a semi-skimmed milk (4pt) is now 40p higher than it was a year ago, according to data from Trolley.co.uk's Grocery Price Index.

Last year, the average cost of milk across six leading supermarkets was £1.20, however now four pinks of milk will set back shoppers £1.60, analysis by MailOnline shows.

The research found that Asda had the biggest price increase for milk, going up by 43.5 per cent (50p).

The joint second biggest increase was Morrisons and Tesco, whose 4pt of semi-skimmed milk went up by 40p (34.8 per cent) respectively.

Co-op's offering went up by 35p, while Sainsbury's had the lowest price hike of 20p, compared to the same period 12 months ago.

Prices have also risen on staples such as spaghetti. A 500g pack of the pasta has risen by 40 per cent on average from 78p in November 2021 to £1.09 this month.

Co-op's own-brand spaghetti had the largest price jump by 42p, followed by Tesco (35p), Morrisons (34p), Waitrose (30p), Asda (28p) and Sainsbury's (17p).

Analysis found that on average, the cost of six medium free range eggs have risen by 32p since this time last year, from 98p to £1.30.

Asda saw the sharpest increase, up by 37p with half a dozen eggs now costing £1.25, closely followed by Morrisons with 36p, Co-op at 35p, Waitrose, 30p, Tesco, 26p and Sainsbury's, 25p.

The average price for butter has risen by 37.5 per cent since last year, costing £1.60 in November 2021 but a block now setting shoppers back £2.20 on average across six supermarkets.

All supermarkets apart from Co-op hiked the price of their 250g butter since November 2021, data revealed.

Waitrose's own-brand butter rose by £1.15 compared to the same period one year ago, while Tesco had the second highest rise of 90p.

Asda's 250g butter increased by 67p, Sainsbury's 51p and Morrisons 44p.

Three out of the six supermarkets (Asda, Sainsbury's and Waitrose) examined did not see any price increase for a tin of tuna chunks in brine.

Overall, the average price rose from 92p to 98p within the 12 month period, with Morrisons and Co-op increasing the price by 20p and Tesco by six pence.

The everyday essential of washing up liquid was the only item that saw a price dip, with Sainsbury's lowering the cost of the 500ml own-brand product by 5p.

Aldi and Lidl were not included in the study because they did not have enough comparable items.

EXCLUSIVE: The New Year 15% price hike on pints: Drinkers face forking out over £7 for draft beer and cider from 2023 as brewer Heineken passes on 'unprecedented cost increases' to landlords - amid cost-of-living crisis

Heineken will increase the price of their beer and cider by more than 15 per cent after Christmas due to 'unprecedented cost increases'.

Punters will be have to shell out £7 or more for some draft Heineken beers from January 16, after the prices rise by an average of 15.8 per cent.

On top of increasing wholesale prices, the brewery also told landlords it will be reducing the alcohol content in Fosters, from 4 per cent to 3.7 per cent, citing 'consumer trends towards lower strength products'.

Their draught lager range will rise on average by 36p per pint, with 15 per cent to 17 per cent hikes for all of them.

Other brands owned by Heineken include John Smiths, Red Stripe, Desperados, Tiger and Strongbow.

<p>Punters will be have to shell out <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11354967/Pub-goers-face-7-pints-brewing-industry-faces-perfect-storm.html"">£7 or more</a> for some draft Heineken beers from January 16, after the prices rise by an average of 15.8 per cent.</p>

<p>On top of increasing wholesale prices, the brewery also told landlords it will be reducing the <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/alcohol/index.html"">alcohol</a> content in Fosters, from 4 per cent to 3.7 per cent, citing 'consumer trends towards lower strength products'.</p>

<p>Looking at prices taken today from central <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/london/index.html"">London</a> Green King pubs, the hikes could mean a Heineken Silver would go from £6.50 to 6.86 - up 36p.</p>

<p>Amstel would rise from £5.75 to £6.12 up 37p, Birra Moretti from £6.60 to £7.01 - up 41p, Kronenbourg 1664 from £5.75 to £6.07 - up 32p, Old Mout Berries and Cherries - from £6.45 to £6.86 up 41p and Fosters from £5.55 to £5.85 - up 30p.</p>

<p>Their draught lager range will rise on average by 36p per pint, with 15 per cent to 17 per cent hikes for all of them.</p>

<p>Other brands owned by Heineken include John Smiths, Red Stripe, Desperados, Tiger and Strongbow.</p>

<p>It comes as hard-pressed families face food prices rises due to inflation, soaring energy bills and fuel prices.</p>

<p>While pubs have also warned that they are being priced of business and have pleaded for a freeze to beer duty ahead of the upcoming Autumn statement.</p>

<p>The new plan is set to increase the duty in line with double-digit levels of inflation to save the Government around £600 million a year.</p>

<p>The British Beer and Pub Association said the industry needs the freeze after more than 50 pubs closed in a month - compared to around 30 a year prior.</p>

<p>An average pint in the UK was £2.30 in 2008, but the price of pints has increased since then by 72 per cent to an average of £3.95 in 2022. In London, an average pint costs far higher at £5.50, according to finder.com, and prices continue to increase.</p>

<p>In August, pension provider Penfold predicted the average cost of a pint will go up to £4.42 by 2025 and the cost of a pint in London would rise to an astronomical £13.98.</p>

<p>Budweiser said they are monitoring their prices after Heineken announced it was raising the price of beer in Ireland earlier this month.</p>

<p>'We are also facing increases in waste packaging and other taxes,' said a spokeswoman for the Budweiser Brewing Group to <a href=""https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/news/budweiser-monitoring-price-of-pints-after-heineken-hike-42140085.html"">independent.ie</a>.</p>

<p>'We evaluate our input costs and make necessary price adjustments on an ongoing basis while driving efficiencies in our business through sustainability and other initiatives.'</p>

<p>Diageo, who own Guinness and Johnnie Walker, chose not to share their wholesale prices but said they increased prices on Guinness back in June.</p>

<p>The average price of a pint of Guinness in Great Britain was £4.20 in June, up four per cent on the year before. In London the stout reached and average price of £4.73, up 3.8 per cent.</p>

<p>An email from Heineken seen by the MailOnline reads: 'Like many UK manufacturers, HEINEKEN UK is facing <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11330027/Union-bosses-plot-general-strike-nearly-100-years-grind-UK-standstill.html"">unprecedented cost increases</a> on a number of critical inputs used to make and distribute Beer and Cider.</p>

<p>'This is predominantly driven by the significant rise in energy prices, which is also having a dramatic impact on the costs of other goods including glass, aluminum and malted barley.</p>

<p>'We are continually looking at ways to mitigate cost volatility and throughout the year we have taken a number of steps to drive greater efficiencies in our business. However, due to the scale of recent and ongoing input cost increases, it is necessary to change the price of our products.</p>

<p>The brewery also announced a new keg surcharge for the popular Birra Moretti  brand at £1.20 per 50 litre kegs and £0.84 per 30 litre kegs.</p>

<p>Earlier this year Heineken <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11192929/Craft-beer-fans-say-theyve-drunk-Neck-Oil-following-Heinekens-takeover-Beavertown.html"">bought craft brewery Beavertown</a> for a sum thought to be more than £40million - but the brand does not appear on the list of beverages increasing in price in January.</p>

<p>In September, Paul Davies, CEO at Carlsberg Marston's Brewing Company, suggested the fall of the pound <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11250181/Beer-boss-warns-slumping-pound-increase-cost-pint.html"">may cause a rise in beer prices</a>.</p>

<p>He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the drop was 'worrying' for the British beer industry, which imports beer and hops from overseas.</p>

<p>Ahead of the Chancellor’s Autumn statement on November 17, pubs and brewers have been calling for the beer duty freeze to be reinstated as costs continue to rise and beer sales start to slow.</p>

<h2>Battle of the brands vs the own brands: How savvy shoppers can save 70p switching from Cravendale to Asda milk, 85p trading Napolina spaghetti for Co-op's variety and 80p swapping Happy Eggs for Morrisons own</h2>

<ul><li><strong>Families could save money this winter by switching from leading brands to cheaper supermarket alternatives</strong></li><li><strong>MailOnline has looked at leading brands compared with supermarket-own products in six supermarkets</strong></li><li><strong>Meanwhile, research found that everyday items such as milk, butter and eggs cost more than a year ago</strong></li></ul>

<p>By Elly Blake for MailOnline</p>

<p>Cash-strapped families could save money this winter by switching from leading brands to cheaper supermarket alternatives when purchasing everyday staple items such as milk, eggs, butter and spaghetti.</p>

<p>As British families are feeling the pinch this winter, with soaring energy bills and fuel price increases, data shows how some cupboard staples have risen significantly in the last 12 months.</p>

<p>It comes after Chancellor <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/jeremy-hunt/index.html"">Jeremy Hunt</a> said the UK's energy costs were set to soar from £40 billion in 2019 to an astonishing £190 billion this year as a result of the war in <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/russia-ukraine-conflict/index.html"">Ukraine</a>, which has also seen food prices soar due to grain supplies.</p>

<p>That combined with mounting mortgage prices and soaring rent prices could result in a winter of misery for millions of Britons.</p>

<p>As many look for ways to save money to head off rising costs, here MailOnline analyses how swapping from leading brands to supermarket own products could make considerable savings to food shopping bills...</p>

<p>FOUR PINTS OF SEMI-SKIMMED MILK</p>

<p>The average price of a four-pink of Cranvendale milk has risen by 60p, from £1.90 to £2.50, compared with the same period 12 months ago.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the average cost a supermarket own-brand semi-skimmed milk (4pt) has gone up by 40p from £1.20 to £1.60 since November 2021.</p>

<p>A four-pint of Cravendale semi-skimmed milk will set British shoppers back £2.70 in Co-op, compared to its own-brand price of £1.85, representing a saving of 85p.</p>

<p>In Asda, shoppers could save 70p by switching to the supermarket brand and £1.15 in Sainsbury's.</p>

<p>A saving of £1.14 could be made in Morrisons by ditching Cravendale's, while going for Tesco, Waitrose and Co-op brands could save you 80p, £1 and 85p respectively.</p>

<p>SPAGHETTI - 500g</p>

<p>Spaghetti is another everyday staple that has soared in price due to the cost of living crisis.</p>

<p>While the average price of own-brand spaghetti has jumped from 78p to £1.09 across six of the leading supermarkets, Napolina's offering has also gone up in price since last year, on average from £1.20 to £1.50.</p>

<p>Despite rises across the board, shoppers could still save by switching.</p>

<p>By swapping to Asda's own brand 500g spaghetti, you could save 55p. In Sainsbury's making the change would cutback by 65p, and a saving of 60p could be made in Morrisons.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, going for own-brand versions in Tesco, Waitrose and Co-op could save you 55p, 60p and 85p respectively.</p>

<p>TUNA CHUNKS IN BRINE</p>

<p>Canned tuna is packed full of omega-3 fatty acids which have health benefits for your brain and body.</p>

<p>Soaring food costs have hit the tinned fish less than other products, with the average price of supermarket brands raising by just six pence from 92p to 98p within the 12 month period.</p>

<p>Last year, the average cost of a tin of Princes tuna would cost £1.30, rising to £1.50 in November 2022.</p>

<p>Savings of 71p could be made in Asda by swapping from Princes to the supermarket own-brand.</p>

<p>A tin of Princes would cost £1.50 in Morrisons versus a tin of their own-brand alternative costing 99p, a difference of 51p.</p>

<p>Meanwhile savings of 45p could be made in Sainsbury's and 65p in Tesco. It was not possible to compare prices for Co-op and Waitrose.</p>

<p>HALF A DOZEN EGGS</p>

<p>Eggs are another cupboard staple item that have seen a sharp rise during the cost of living crisis.</p>

<p>Analysis found that on average, the cost of six medium free range eggs in six of the leading supermarkets have risen by 32p since this time last year, from 98p to £1.30.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, a pack of half a dozen medium free range Happy Egg's cost on average 21p, more than they did 12 months ago.</p>

<p>Asda shoppers could make a saving of 15p by switching tot he supermarket own-brand product, while those who shop in Sainsbury's could pocket an extra 35p.</p>

<p>The largest saving by switching to a supermarket alternative was found in Tesco, where customers could save 55p by going from a leading brand to an own-brand product.  A direct comparison was not possible for Morrisons, Waitrose or Co-op.</p>

<p>BUTTER - 250g</p>

<p>The price of butter has also spiked since last year, with it costing 60p more than 12 months ago after the average price rose from £1.60 to £2.20.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the average cost of a block of Lurpak across the six leading supermarkets has also risen from £1.90 to £2.40 within the last year.</p>

<p>In Asda, switching to its own 250g of butter would save shoppers 15p, while a saving of 26p could be made in Sainsbury's.</p>

<p>A saving of 61p could be made in Morrisons, while sticking with Lurpak would be the most cost-effective option in Tesco and Waitrose as swapping to an own-brand alternative would cost 25p and 55p more respectively.</p>

<p>However, swapping in Co-op would see huge savings of £1.30.</p>

<p>WASHING UP LIQUID</p>

<p>Washing up liquid is another everyday essential item that has risen during the cost of living crisis.</p>

<p>Last year, a bottle would set shoppers back 57p on average, rising to 71p this year.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the leading brand average price of the leading brand Fairy has stayed the same compared to 12 months ago, costing £1.14.</p>

<p>However, switching from Fairy to a supermarket own brand product in Asda could save you 45p and 55p in Sainsbury's.</p>

<p>Swapping to a Morrisons own-brand product would result in a 25p saving, whereas Tesco, Waitrose and Co-op would see savings of 56p, 50p and 25p respectively.</p>

<p>MATURE CHEEDAR CHEESE</p>

<p>The average price of a block of Cathedral City cheddar has risen by 53p, from £2.77 to £3.30, compared with the same period 12 months ago.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the average cost a supermarket own-brand cheddar cheese across four leading supermarkets has gone up by 86p from £2.96 to £2.10 since November 2021.</p>

<p>A block of Cathedral cheese and supermarket own brand cheese both cost £3 in Asda.</p>

<p>In Tesco, shoppers could save £2 by switching to the supermarket brand and 25p in Sainsbury's.</p>

<p>Cathedral city is 75p cheaper than the supermarket alternative in Morrisons, costing £3.25 compared to £3.99.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, supermarket own-brand foods and everyday items such as spaghetti and washing up liquid vary widely in price, analysis can reveal.</p>

<p>The average cost of a semi-skimmed milk (4pt) is now 40p higher than it was a year ago, according to data from Trolley.co.uk's Grocery Price Index.</p>

<p>Last year, the average cost of milk across six leading supermarkets was £1.20, however now four pinks of milk will set back shoppers £1.60, analysis by MailOnline shows.</p>

<p>The research found that Asda had the biggest price increase for milk, going up by 43.5 per cent (50p).</p>

<p>The joint second biggest increase was Morrisons and Tesco, whose 4pt of semi-skimmed milk went up by 40p (34.8 per cent) respectively.</p>

<p>Co-op's offering went up by 35p, while Sainsbury's had the lowest price hike of 20p, compared to the same period 12 months ago.</p>

<p>Prices have also risen on staples such as spaghetti. A 500g pack of the pasta has risen by 40 per cent on average from 78p in November 2021 to £1.09 this month.</p>

<p>Co-op's own-brand spaghetti had the largest price jump by 42p, followed by Tesco (35p), Morrisons (34p), Waitrose (30p), Asda (28p) and Sainsbury's (17p).</p>

<p>The average price for butter has risen by 37.5 per cent since last year, costing £1.60 in November 2021 but a block now setting shoppers back £2.20 on average across six supermarkets.</p>

<p>All supermarkets apart from Co-op hiked the price of their 250g butter since November 2021, data revealed.</p>

<p>Waitrose's own-brand butter rose by £1.15 compared to the same period one year ago, while Tesco had the second highest rise of 90p.</p>

<p>Asda's 250g butter increased by 67p, Sainsbury's 51p and Morrisons 44p.</p>

<p>Three out of the six supermarkets (Asda, Sainsbury's and Waitrose) examined did not see any price increase for a tin of tuna chunks in brine.</p>

<p>Overall, the average price rose from 92p to 98p within the 12 month period, with Morrisons and Co-op increasing the price by 20p and Tesco by six pence.</p>

<p>The everyday essential of washing up liquid was the only item that saw a price dip, with Sainsbury's lowering the cost of the 500ml own-brand product by 5p.</p>

<p>Aldi and Lidl were not included in the study because they did not have enough comparable items.</p>

<p>EXCLUSIVE: The New Year 15% price hike on pints: Drinkers face forking out over £7 for draft beer and cider from 2023 as brewer Heineken passes on 'unprecedented cost increases' to landlords - amid cost-of-living crisis</p>

<p>Heineken will increase the price of their beer and cider by more than 15 per cent after Christmas due to 'unprecedented cost increases'.</p>

<p>Punters will be have to shell out £7 or more for some draft Heineken beers from January 16, after the prices rise by an average of 15.8 per cent.</p>

<p>On top of increasing wholesale prices, the brewery also told landlords it will be reducing the alcohol content in Fosters, from 4 per cent to 3.7 per cent, citing 'consumer trends towards lower strength products'.</p>

<p>Looking at prices taken today from central London Green King pubs, the hikes could mean a Heineken Silver would go from £6.50 to 6.86 - up 36p.</p>

<p>Amstel would rise from £5.75 to £6.12 up 37p, Birra Moretti from £6.60 to £7.01 - up 41p, Kronenbourg 1664 from £5.75 to £6.07 - up 32p, Old Mout Berries and Cherries - from £6.45 to £6.86 up 41p and Fosters from £5.55 to £5.85 - up 30p.</p>

<p>Their draught lager range will rise on average by 36p per pint, with 15 per cent to 17 per cent hikes for all of them.</p>

<p>Other brands owned by Heineken include John Smiths, Red Stripe, Desperados, Tiger and Strongbow.</p>

<p>It comes as hard-pressed families face food prices rises due to inflation, soaring energy bills and fuel prices.</p>

<p>While pubs have also warned that they are being priced of business and have pleaded for a freeze to beer duty ahead of the upcoming Autumn statement.</p>

<p>The new plan is set to increase the duty in line with double-digit levels of inflation to save the Government around £600 million a year.</p>

<p>The British Beer and Pub Association said the industry needs the freeze after more than 50 pubs closed in a month - compared to around 30 a year prior.</p>

<p>An average pint in the UK was £2.30 in 2008, but the price of pints has increased since then by 72 per cent to an average of £3.95 in 2022. In London, an average pint costs far higher at £5.50, according to finder.com, and prices continue to increase.</p>

<figure><img src=""https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/11/15/17/64562799-11429931-The_Dutch_brewery_said_the_price_hikes_are_predominantly_driven_-a-70_1668533392339.jpg"" alt=""The Dutch brewery said the price hikes are predominantly driven by the significant rise in energy prices"">     <figcaption><p>The Dutch brewery said the price hikes are predominantly driven by the significant rise in energy prices </p></figcaption></figure>

<p>In August, pension provider Penfold predicted the average cost of a pint will go up to £4.42 by 2025 and the cost of a pint in London would rise to an astronomical £13.98.</p>

<p>Budweiser said they are monitoring their prices after Heineken announced it was raising the price of beer in Ireland earlier this month.</p>

<p>'We are also facing increases in waste packaging and other taxes,' said a spokeswoman for the Budweiser Brewing Group to independent.ie.</p>

<p>'We evaluate our input costs and make necessary price adjustments on an ongoing basis while driving efficiencies in our business through sustainability and other initiatives.'</p>

<p>Diageo, who own Guinness and Johnnie Walker, chose not to share their wholesale prices but said they increased prices on Guinness back in June.</p>

<p>The average price of a pint of Guinness in Great Britain was £4.20 in June, up four per cent on the year before. In London the stout reached and average price of £4.73, up 3.8 per cent.</p>

<p>An email from Heineken seen by the MailOnline reads: 'Like many UK manufacturers, HEINEKEN UK is facing unprecedented cost increases on a number of critical inputs used to make and distribute Beer and Cider.</p>

<figure><img src=""https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/11/15/17/64574469-11429931-image-a-72_1668533392340.jpg"" alt="""">     <figcaption><p>'This is predominantly driven by the significant rise in energy prices, which is also having a dramatic impact on the costs of other goods including glass, aluminum and malted barley.</p></figcaption></figure>

<p>'We are continually looking at ways to mitigate cost volatility and throughout the year we have taken a number of steps to drive greater efficiencies in our business. However, due to the scale of recent and ongoing input cost increases, it is necessary to change the price of our products.</p>

<p>'As a result, we will be increasing our wholesale selling prices by an average of 15.8%. The exact percentage per product is set out in the schedule here. This increase will be duty exclusive.'</p>

<p>The brewery also announced a new keg surcharge for the popular Birra Moretti brand at £1.20 per 50 litre kegs and £0.84 per 30 litre kegs.</p>

<p>Earlier this year Heineken bought craft brewery Beavertown for a sum thought to be more than £40million - but the brand does not appear on the list of beverages increasing in price in January.</p>

<p>In September, Paul Davies, CEO at Carlsberg Marston's Brewing Company, suggested the fall of the pound may cause a rise in beer prices.</p>

<p>He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the drop was 'worrying' for the British beer industry, which imports beer and hops from overseas.</p>

<p>Ahead of the Chancellor’s Autumn statement on November 17, pubs and brewers have been calling for the beer duty freeze to be reinstated as costs continue to rise and beer sales start to slow.</p>

<p>The British Beer and Pub Association published figures in an open letter to Jeremy Hunt, showing the average costs for pubs and brewers were up 22 per cent at the end of this summer compared to 2021.</p>

<p>The Association stressed that prices are forcing businesses to pass on costs to their customers at the bar and said the average price of a pint is up 8 per cent on last year.</p>

<p>Oliver Robinson, Joint Managing Director of Robinsons Brewery, who operate 260 pubs across the North West and North Wales said: 'For months there has been absolutely no let-up in the costs being piled onto our business.</p>

<p>'We are seeing unprecedented price increases across the business but especially on raw materials and if these were all passed on it would make the cost of a pint almost unaffordable in many pubs.'</p>

Following a day of talks with political leaders in Northern Ireland, the Prime Minister will tomorrow fly to Germany for a security summit where he hopes to finalise a deal with EU chiefs.

However he played down the prospect of an imminent breakthrough today, saying there was 'more work to do' to reach an agreement.

His comments came after he and Northern Ireland Secretary Chris Heaton-Harris met with DUP leader Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald and vice president Michelle O'Neill.

The DUP said it would not compromise on its 'seven tests' which need to be passed for the party to support a post-Brexit deal. These include no new checks on goods moving between Northern Ireland and Great Britain.

Sir Jeffrey said: 'Our seven tests I think reflect the previous commitments that we've been given by the UK Government... so it's not a question of us compromising. It's a question of the UK Government honouring the commitments they've made to the people of Northern Ireland, delivering on those commitments... and providing the basis on which Northern Ireland's place within the UK's internal market can be respected and protected.'

The party has warned it will refuse to return to power-sharing with Sinn Fein if the deal falls short of their demands.

A source close to the DUP said: 'They're suspicious that there isn't a clear presentation of the detail yet and doubtful that [the deal's] going to do the job. It sounds like it's going to fall some way short of some of the things that they hoped for in this.'

Former minister David Jones, deputy chairman of the European Research Group, also said he did not believe Mr Sunak's deal would meet the DUP's demands.

He also claimed that 'more than 40' Tory MPs could rebel if the deal went to a Commons vote. This would mean Mr Sunak might need to rely on Labour MPs to get it through. Mr Jones added: 'Northern Ireland must cease to be subject to laws made in Brussels. It's as simple as that.'

Lord Frost, who negotiated Britain's withdrawal from the EU, said they were 'still waiting' to see if a deal can be reached. But he suggested that there need to be changes to the Northern Ireland Protocol for the deal 'to command broad support'.

He added: 'We will obviously have to wait to see the full text before reaching any firm judgment.' Unionists object to the number of checks carried out on goods arriving in Ulster from mainland Britain under the original post-Brexit trading arrangements. They also oppose the European Court of Justice's continued role in ruling over trade disputes in Ulster.

However, the level of checks involved in Mr Sunak's new proposed deal may still be too invasive for the DUP. It is also understood that the deal includes a role for European judges.

Leo Varadkar, the Irish premier, said 'we're not there yet' on a deal but added that he was 'quietly confident' there could be one within a fortnight.

He told reporters in Limerick: 'I think a lot of progress has been made. We're not there yet, but certainly a lot of trust has been built up between the European Commission, Ireland and the British Government.

'I do believe the prospect is there of having an agreement possibly within a week. It's not finalised, we haven't all seen the final text yet, but we are getting there. I'm quietly confident that within the next week or two we could be in a position to sign off on an agreement.'

Maros Sefcovic, the EU's Brexit enforcer, also held talks with the UK's Foreign Secretary James Cleverly before meeting with ambassadors in Brussels.

Senior EU sources said Mr Sefcovic's meeting lasted just 30 minutes, with diplomats describing it as 'more of an update than a substantive debrief.'

Officials present said that Mr Sefcovic refused to be drawn on whether a deal would be announced in days or weeks, but that 'everyone should be prepared for something soon.'

He claimed that any agreement on the European Court of Justice would be 'within the EU's red lines and with no surprises' – suggesting it will continue to have a role.

One senior diplomat said: 'Sefcovic's biggest concern is whether Sunak can ""sell"" the deal. It isn't over until the fat lady sings.'

Another EU diplomat said Eurocrats had 'low expectations' over whether the Prime Minister could convince hard-line Eurosceptics and the DUP.

Analysis from James Franey in Brussels

Downing Street was keeping the new Brexit agreement close to its chest as it entered a crucial stage. The text of the proposed deal was kept from both Stormont representatives and EU ambassadors during briefings in Belfast and Brussels.

But diplomats said that Rishi Sunak and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen still had some issues to resolve at their planned talks in Munich. There are set to be several key issues on the table:

Adherence to EU laws:

Whatever is announced by the Prime Minister next week, Northern Ireland will still have to follow EU rules.

Brussels argues Northern Irish firms must follow its regulations because of the high volumes of trade with the Republic.

Eurocrats say Northern Ireland traders can only sell freely into the European single market if EU rules remain in place there. But local politicians have no say over those rules.

Easing checks on goods:

Brussels wanted all goods shipped across the Irish Sea to be subject to the same customs checks, arguing the bloc’s single market could be at risk.

But British negotiators succeeded in forcing them to back down and accept their blueprint for red and green customs lanes.

Both sides have already agreed a data-sharing deal to allow the EU to access customs data, further reducing the need for inspections. Goods destined for Northern Ireland from trusted traders would be allowed in via a green lane without routine physical checks, but officers would reserve the right to inspect suspect cargo.

Those goods set to be put on sale in the Republic of Ireland would be made to face customs formalities in Northern Irish ports.

Unionist politicians say even the latest compromise treats Northern Ireland differently from the rest of the UK.

European Court of Justice:

The role of EU judges in Northern Ireland has been the hardest dispute to solve because Eurocrats insist the European Court of Justice (ECJ) must have the final say on any disagreement over EU law. Sources in Brussels say this will be the case under any revised deal, but they expect a pact will be struck that refers to the Luxembourg-based body as the court of last resort.

Britain had previously argued in the negotiations that any disagreement should first be referred to an independent arbitration panel. It would have prevented the European Commission from referring the Government to the ECJ directly.

Now the EU executive is likely to sign a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ in which they promise not to refer any cases to the court without first holding informal talks with the UK. This is unlikely to be accepted by critics of the Protocol who say ending the influence of foreign judges across the whole of the UK was one of the main motivations for Brexit.

Tax and state aid:

Britain has been calling to scrap EU state aid and VAT rules imposed on Northern Ireland firms under the Protocol that prevent them from receiving UK government subsidies and tax breaks.

The current deal says any subsidies over a certain amount that affect trade between NI and the EU will require approval from Eurocrats in Brussels.

But a British Government spokesman declined to say last night whether that was still the UK’s negotiating stance, raising fears the Government has watered down their demands.","<article>

Scientists develop smartphone app that spots stroke symptoms as they occur — looking at facial droopiness and slurred speech,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11706515/Smartphone-app-help-identify-stroke-symptoms-occur.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11706515/Smartphone-app-help-identify-stroke-symptoms-occur.html,2023-02-02T16:16:36+00:00,"In the US one person suffers a stroke every 40 seconds, and in the UK it is every five minutes, and acting quickly is key to preventing lasting brain damage.

However the symptoms, which include a drooping face on one side, slurred speech or being unable to lift an arm, are not so easily recognizable in an emergency.

Now, scientists have come up with an app that could help family and friends recognize a stroke when it is taking place – prompting them to call for an ambulance.

The app, called FAST.AI, uses a facial video of the patient to examine 69 facial points, measure arm movement and detect speech changes.

A team from the University of California trialed it on nearly 270 patients who had been diagnosed with acute stroke, within 72 hours of hospital admission.

Neurologists who examined the patients tested the app then compared the results with their own clinical diagnosis.

Analysis found the app accurately detected stroke-associated facial drooping in nearly 100 percent of patients.

The app also accurately detected arm weakness in more than two-thirds of cases, and preliminary analysis suggests it may also be able to reliably detect slurred speech.

It is important to recognize the signs of a stroke straight away since clot-busting medication should be administered within three hours after symptoms begin.

The faster the treatment is administered, the more likely for a better recovery.

Researchers said their study is ongoing and the app is still in development and not available to the public.

Author Radoslav Raychev said: ‘Many stroke patients don’t make it to the hospital in time for treatment, which is one reason why it is vital to recognize stroke symptoms and call [for help] right away.

‘These early results confirm the app reliably identified acute stroke symptoms as accurately as a neurologist, and they will help to improve the app’s accuracy in detecting signs and symptoms of stroke.’

The findings were presented at the American Stroke Association’s International Stroke Conference in Dallas, Texas.","<article>

'Our new love': John Legend is a proud dad as he holds newborn daughter Esti in sweet snap... a week-and-a-half after wife Chrissy Teigen gave birth,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11678035/John-Legend-inch-proud-dad-holds-newborn-daughter-Esti-adorable-snap.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11678035/John-Legend-inch-proud-dad-holds-newborn-daughter-Esti-adorable-snap.html,2023-01-26T04:07:31+00:00,"John Legend appeared absolutely besotted with his newborn baby girl in a snap shared to his Instagram on Wednesday.

The Ordinary People crooner, 44 — who welcomed Esti Maxine Stephens with wife Chrissy Teigen, 37, on January 13 — held the infant in his arms with a broad smile on his face.

'Our new love,' the Grammys-Award winning musician — who also shares daughter Luna, six, and son Miles, four, with Teigen — captioned the heartwarming photo.

'Our new love': John Legend appeared absolutely besotted with his newborn baby girl Esti in a snap shared to his Instagram on Wednesday

The singer — who's been married to Teigen since 2013 — looked cozy in the snap, wearing a white and black knitted turtleneck.

Meanwhile little Esti was clad in a pink onesie.

His 15.1M followers were charmed by the father and daughter duo, with one calling Esti his 'twin.'

Another fan wrote, 'Literally it’s been five minutes and already she looks just like you dude.'

Meanwhile SNL star Keenan Thompson simply left five red-heart emojis.

The day prior his wife shared the first close-up snap of her bouncing baby girl's face.

The model - who has been documenting her post partum recovery on social media - took to Instagram on Tuesday afternoon to share an adorable photo of her new daughter.

The newborn looked cute while wrapped up in a grey blanket as she rested her head onto her own arm while Chrissy cradled her.

Chrissy captioned the snap to her 40.5million followers: 'look at u out here lookin like a baby.'

The proud parents also previously posted a sweet snap showing the baby being cuddled by her older siblings.

Sharing the baby's name, the post read: 'She’s here! Esti Maxine Stephens - the house is bustling and our family could not be happier.

'Daddy sheds nightly tears of joy seeing Luna and Miles so full of love, and I am learning you still need diapers with a c section!? We are in bliss. Thank you for all the love and well wishes - we feel it all!'

The A-list dad has also been spending plenty of quality time with the couple's older children, and recently took them to their elementary school's Lunar New Year Party on Friday.

Legend posted an adorable picture of him holding hands with Miles and Luna as they were dressed in traditional clothing.

Legend first shared the news while performing at a private concert last Friday night, telling the crowd that he and his wife welcomed 'the little baby this morning.'

'What a blessed day,' the singer said, adding that although he 'didn't get a lot of sleep' he felt 'energized' after being by spending 'a lot of time' by Chrissy's side at the hospital.

The happy news came nearly two years after she and John lost their son Jack 20 weeks into her pregnancy. She later revealed that her late son's passing was the result of a life-saving abortion, not a miscarriage as she originally stated.

She explained that she made the 'difficult decision' to terminate the pregnancy after coming to terms with the fact that she nor Jack would likely survive.

'Let's just call it what it was: It was an abortion. An abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance. And to be honest, I never, ever put that together until, actually, a few months ago,' confessed Chrissy, according to THR.","<article>

Best man caves in Britain: 10 finalists battle it out to win the title of UK's Games Room of the Year - including a pinball arcade in a garage and fully-stocked home bars,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11398979/Best-man-caves-Britain-Finalists-battle-win-title-UKs-Games-Room-Year.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11398979/Best-man-caves-Britain-Finalists-battle-win-title-UKs-Games-Room-Year.html,2022-11-07T16:13:42+00:00,"The 10 finalists battling it out to become win the title of the UK's Games Room of the Year have been announced.

Interest in games rooms has boomed in recent times, with online searches increasing by a staggering 3,800 per cent in the last month alone.

And this has translated into people building bigger and better recreational areas in their homes.

Now entries into the competition, held by games room retailer Home Leisure Direct, have been whittled down to the finalists, and voting is open to see which one will be crowned.

From the vintage arcade hangout to the pool hall superstars, the finalists are all hoping to win the cash prize of £1,000 as well as the prestige of the title.

Hilary Cutler, Marketing Director of Home Leisure Direct, said: 'Games Room of the Year is now in its seventh year, having run annually since 2015.

'This year's round of entrants have not disappointed – featuring some of the most stylish and jaw-dropping games rooms we’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing.

'This year represents both our highest number of entries and quality we have ever had – making the selection of our ten finalists incredibly competitive.

'However, we are completely confident the top 10 games rooms we have selected are the best of the bunch and we look forward to the results from the public vote, crowning this years ""Games Room of the Year"".'

Ben – Sussex

After putting in more than 1,000 hours of hard work and love, Ben has deemed the Hornets Nest complete... until he can spot some more black and yellow merch

Darren – Scotland

In amongst this room of memories are some cool bits of tech. From old school gaming systems like a Sega Mega Drive and a ZX Spectrum Console, to the modern day Xbox and PS4

Jim – Solihull

Next on the list of epic additions will be a secret door which leads into the kitchen area of the home, a GoldenTee golf game or a small 1Up arcade

John & Annabel – Northamptonshire

Michael – Somerset

Ambience and gaming are key focuses for Michael's 'lock down project' games room, which is housed in his double garage

Paul – Leicestershire

Paul and partner Claire were determined to build the best home games room, so took to taking photos of all the inspirational spaces and pieces they could in every bar, pub and restaurant they went to, and saved every scrap of inspiration they could find

Peter – Gloucester

Peter's games room was created more 'on the go', than fully planned ahead, sparked the full size snooker table in one of the rooms when he and his partner moved into their house, which he eventually swapped out for a pool table

He has added more to the room, including a 'one more time' jukebox, a rubix cube storage seat and a cocktail arcade cabinet that could play all of his retro game favourites

Philip – Birmingham

With mirrors, family photos and lighting all sorted, Philip added a pool table and a pinball machine to start off

As the years went by, he was able to buy more pinball machines. In the future, Philip can see himself investing in another pinball machine, or perhaps a sit down cocktail arcade cabinet

Richard – Nottinghamshire

Richard's favourite aspect of the room is that it's possible to have a chill out area as well as more functional sections of the room

Steve – Yorkshire

Steve used to play a lot of 9-ball when he was a teenager, and always wanted his own table, which he now has in his games room

Voting for the winner of UK's Games Room of the Year is in its final phase, and members of the public are being invited to vote for their favourite finalist, which they can do here.

The voting will end on November 15 at 11.59pm GMT.","<article>

'You don't have to be prim and proper!' Ellie Taylor reveals she's doing Strictly to show young girls like her daughter that women can be 'funny and silly',https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11293515/You-dont-prim-proper-Ellie-Taylor-reveals-shes-doing-Strictly.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11293515/You-dont-prim-proper-Ellie-Taylor-reveals-shes-doing-Strictly.html,2022-10-08T01:46:10+01:00,"Ellie Taylor has revealed she's doing Strictly Come Dancing to show young girls like her daughter that women can be 'funny and silly'.

The comedian, 38, - who shares Valentina, three, with husband Phil Black - said she wants to prove you don't always have to be 'prim and proper' and you can just be a 'wally' sometimes.

Ellie is partnered with South African professional dancer Johannes Radebe on this year's series and has so far received mixed reviews for her performances.

She told The Mirror: 'You want to see more women on telly being funny so little girls can know it's OK to be a woman and be funny and silly.

'You don't have to be prim and proper, you can be a wally. That's what I want to show to my daughter.'

Speaking about feminism in general she added: 'We stand on the shoulders of the generations before us who made the headway and they had a much tougher time.

'There are a few more opportunities now. But I still think it's probably more skewed towards guys.'

Performing the very first Paso Doble dance of the series was Ellie and partner Johannes took to the floor in matching purple ensembles last Saturday for Strictly.

'I felt you were just walking around and posing, not actually dancing,' criticised Craig of the dance, as Shirley admitted 'it lacked the complete energy of a pase doble, it just missed for me.'

But noticing Ellie's 'beautiful line', Motsi and Anton were more positive on the number - as Johannes said he was 'so proud' of his partner.

The TV personality beat out Tony Adams by just one mark as they scored 23 points out of 40, a drop from last week's 28.

Its 20th series is once again being hosted by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman.

The show will then air live every Saturday throughout the autumn, with the final typically airing on the last Saturday before Christmas.

It's spin-off show, It Takes Two, will also make a return following the first bumper weekend - with Rylan Clark and Janette Manrara set to return as hosts.","<article>

The billionaire Westfield founder, 92, has been seen out and about with a mystery woman and introducing her to friends as his 'new girlfriend', according to the Daily Telegraph.

The woman's name remains unknown but sources say she's in her early 70s and met Sir Lowy in Israel - where he currently resides.

Sources also note that the widower, who shares three sons with his late wife of 66 years Shirley Lowy, has been 'much revived' by his new lover's company.

Sir Lowy is still carrying his late wife's legacy after recently donating $27 million to Tel Aviv University and renaming the International School in memory of her.

The school's new name has been unveiled and will be called The Lowy International School Dedicated to the Memory of Shirley Lowy.

'My family and I know that my dear wife Shirley’s memory will forever live on at TAU and this makes us very proud,' he said.

'This tribute to my wife combines all the most important things to her - education, the state of Israel, and empowering the new generations.'

Lady Lowy was surrounded by family, including her husband and their sons, in Tel Aviv, Israel when she passed away on December 9, 2020.

'It is with deepest sorrow that we confirm the passing of Shirley Lowy, our beloved wife, mother, grandmother-in-law and great grandmother,' the family said in a statement at the time.

'She passed away peacefully at the age of 86, in Tel Aviv, comforted in her last days by her husband, Frank, and her closest family including sons David, Peter and Steven.'

Lady Lowry was diagnosed with dementia about 10 years ago.

In a documentary about her condition, What will become of us, Sir Lowry opened up about his personal struggles.

'Nights are really very difficult because she goes to bed between 7 and 8 o’clock and then I don’t exactly know what to do with myself. As her memory recedes more and more, I want to hold onto my own,' he said.

During filming, Sir Lowry was selling Westfield Corporation, the company he founded in Blacktown in 1959.

At the time, Sir Lowry was grappling with what would happen when the company was gone.

'Where will I be without the company? It would have been nice to discuss this matter with my wife, but it’s not possible.'

Lady Lowry was born in Sydney to immigrant parents. Her family, who moved to Australia from Poland and the United Kingdom, spent time in Bondi before relocating further north.

Sir Frank and Lady Lowy met at a Hanukkah party in 1952 and were married for 68 years.

They had three sons together, David, Peter and Steven.

She completed an arts degree once her children were grown but prioritised her family life over paid work.

She has been remembered for her philanthropic work, having started establish a scholarship at Moriah College, a private school in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, to help underprivileged.

She also helped struggling Jewish families and set up houses for children from troubled families in Israel.

'Her care and concern extended beyond her growing family to the wider community where she quietly launched philanthropic initiatives to help those in need. Having come from humble beginnings, she searched for new ways to improve the lives of others.'","<article>

Rishi Sunak will join Joe Biden for first time as they rally G20 nations to confront Russia over Ukraine invasion,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11423919/Rishi-Sunak-join-Joe-Biden-time-rally-G20-nations-confront-Russia.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11423919/Rishi-Sunak-join-Joe-Biden-time-rally-G20-nations-confront-Russia.html,2022-11-13T22:52:31+00:00,"Rishi Sunak will meet President Joe Biden for the first time at this week’s G20 summit as Western allies confront Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.

He will meet Mr Biden one-to-one on Wednesday morning and pledge to continue working ‘hand in glove’ with the US in the response to the conflict.

The two leaders will try to persuade member countries less supportive of Ukraine to rally behind their position, piling more pressure on Vladimir Putin to withdraw.

Russia is a G20 member. It is the first time in the 15-year history of G20 summits that it has met during a major European war instigated by one of its members.

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky will address the gathering by videolink.

Putin pulled out of the two-day summit, sending his foreign affairs secretary Sergey Lavrov in his place.

Lavrov is expected to take a battering around the leaders’ table during the opening session tomorrow.

It will be the first encounter between a British prime minister and Russian official since the country’s invasion in February and several leaders are expected to use their opening speeches to lambast Lavrov and his government.

Last night the Prime Minister’s official spokesman said: ‘We will use every opportunity to confront Russia about their continued illegal actions, about their inhumane bombardment of innocent civilians, of civilian infrastructure in an attempt to starve the Ukrainian people and, of course, the significant knock-on impact that is having on vulnerable countries around the world.’

Mr Sunak will also call for a global spending spree to help less wealthy countries resist cash provided by ‘exploitative’ lenders such as China, which has helped build infrastructure in 60 countries across Asia and Africa under its Belt and Road initiative.

However, the call could be undermined by the fact that the UK’s aid budget has been cut to 0.5 per cent of gross national income. It is not due to rise again until at least 2024.","<article>

Having a (Weston-Super) Mare! Locals' fury as bungling council workers make spelling mistakes on FIVE road signs,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11364509/North-Somerset-Council-labelled-incompetent-misspelt-street-signs-Weston-super-Mare.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11364509/North-Somerset-Council-labelled-incompetent-misspelt-street-signs-Weston-super-Mare.html,2022-10-28T09:28:49+01:00,"A local council has been labelled incompetent after incredulous constituents found several misspelt street signs all within one neighbourhood.

At least five separate signs pointing to four streets in Weston-super-Mare in Somerset have been spelt wrong.

While some locals can see the lighter side of the blunder, others say it's an example of 'typical council incompetence'.

Among some of the most obvious gaffes is Becket Road, which is also spelt as Beckett Road on a sign just across the street, and Queen's Way - which is spelt three different ways all within close proximity of each other.

Austen Drive is spelt with both an E and and an I just a few hundred yards apart, while Ryecroft Avenue is spelt with and without an E in a separate area of town.

Residents noticed that within one roundabout section, the street was spelt three ways, including Queensway

North Somerset Council said it was aware of the issue on Becket Road and was checking the other signs.

Locals say the errors have caused problems and can make giving directions complicated.

One resident, who asked not to be named, said: 'I noticed the Becket/Beckett signs years ago as I turn into it most days.

'It was hard to miss considering they were literally opposite each other.

'I found it quite funny and put a photo on my Facebook profile, and a friend told me that Queensway, which Becket Road is off, also showed as Queen's Way - so I went and had look.'

Upon further inspection, the resident realised there were not two but three variations of the street name - the third being Queens Way.

'I started paying more attention to signs and noticed there were more and more mistakes.'

'People have mixed reactions - many find it hilarious, and typical of our council, whereas some think it's total incompetence, and don't see the funny side at all.'

Another Weston resident said online: 'Sums the council up in one word - which is unprintable!'

And a third added: 'Someone had a few too many when this was done!'

North Somerset Council have acknowledged the typo at Becket Road and said it is 'being rectified'.

'We're checking the correct spellings and if any signs need to be altered, we will raise this issue with our contractors,' a spokesperson said.

'We're always grateful to residents for reporting things to us so that we can deal with them as necessary.

'Should anyone like to report any issues to us, they can do so on our website or by calling us on 01934 888 88.'","<article>

Driver who pulled into a bus lane to let an ambulance pass is FINED £130 sparking backlash from Britons who say he was punished for act which 'could have helped save a life',https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11310931/Driver-pulled-bus-lane-let-ambulance-pass-fined-130-causing-backlash-Brits.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11310931/Driver-pulled-bus-lane-let-ambulance-pass-fined-130-causing-backlash-Brits.html,2022-10-13T11:07:47+01:00,"A driver was fined £130 after he pulled into a bus lane to let an ambulance pass, with the punishment sparking an angry backlash among fellow motorists.

James Sheridan-Vigor was handed the penalty after he pulled into the lane in Walthamstow, east London, briefly.

He appealed the fine, but initially Waltham Forest Council refused to rescind it.

Mr Sheridan-Vigor said: 'Even after I appealed, they said they issued it correctly and that emergency vehicles have the right to use the bus lane so myself (and two other cars) ""would be more likely to obstruct their path than assist them"" - which I totally understand.

'However, when a bus is sat at a stop and an ambulance can't magically drive through a bus it has to overtake on the right.

'So what I'm getting from this is they've either made a mistake looking at the evidence.

'Or we're not supposed to help out our emergency services and get out of their way.'

Following his appeal, the frustrated driver received a letter that read: 'Under current legislation a vehicle must not drive, park or stop in a bus lane during its period of operation unless the signs indicate that a vehicle may do so.

'I must advise that emergency vehicles may use the bus lane when responding to an emergency and therefore entering a bus lane when dealing with an emergency vehicle would be more likely to obstruct their path than assist them.

'A motorist must not put themselves in contravention of the law when dealing with an emergency vehicle unless directed to by an on-duty police officer.'

But the council eventually crumbled under pressure and cancelled the fine after it told a reporter it had been a mistake.

Other Londoners slammed the fine as a 'disgrace', with many saying that motorists should be able to make way for emergency services in a hurry without fear of a fine.

Furious Brits have come out in defence of the driver, claiming no one should be fined for helping 'paramedics save lives'.

One said: 'Its absolute madness, an ambulance needs to get to an emergency call so pulling over for a minute to let them through is essential.

'I hope these people that issue the fines don't need an emergency ambulance for one of their loved ones. Could be a matter of life or death.'

The fine caused a backlash on social media, with furious Brits calling the penalty 'absolute madness'

Another added: 'Stupid laws we pull over cause we see an ambulance or police car now we are being prosecuted for the stupid rules.'

On the council's website, its policy states that if an emergency vehicle is on a call, such as showing flashing lights and using its siren, and a driver pulls aside to make way, they will not get a ticket - even if it is in a bus lane.

But if the ambulance is not on call, then drivers can get a ticket if they pull into a bus lane to allow it to pass.

Another person said: 'That's a disgrace. The bus lane is there for traffic flow, not to make money from decent members of the public. It's perfectly clear you're not using it to overtake traffic.'

One added: 'Afraid the law is that you are not allowed in bus lanes, stop in yellow box or cross red lights even for emergency vehicles - stupid law as you may have even help save someone's life.'

A spokesperson for Waltham Forest Council said: 'We have investigated this incident and this fine was issued in error. It has now been cancelled. We apologise for the mistake.'","<article>

She's bringing SexyBack! Kerry Washington hypes herself up with Justin Timberlake track before hitting Critics' Choice red carpet in plunging strapless frock,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11639243/Critics-Choice-Awards-Kerry-Washington-vows-bring-SexyBack-strapless-dress.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11639243/Critics-Choice-Awards-Kerry-Washington-vows-bring-SexyBack-strapless-dress.html,2023-01-16T06:10:32+00:00,"Kerry Washington dazzled at the Critics' Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday evening.

The 45-year-old Scandal star wore a sparkling, sequined Giorgio Armani Privé gown to the star-studded red carpet event at the Fairmont Century Plaza.

Before hitting the red carpet, she got hyped for the night by dancing around to Justin Timberlake 's track SexyBack with her glam squad, and posted a video on her official TikTok account.

The gorgeous designer gown was adorned with pink and purple flowers. Her black hair was parted in the middle with her gorgeous curls cascading down her back.

She painted her lips bright pink, and long diamond earrings dangled down toward her shoulders.

The Django Unchained actress shared a number of photos to social media which highlighted the impressive garment.

She showed a photo with her team of stylists, specifically her hair stylist and cosmetologist.

After posing up a storm on the red carpet, Washington headed into the suave affair where she presented an award.

Kerry flashed a brilliant white smile onstage while holding the envelope with the winner's name on it.

The Little Fires star gave out the award for Best Drama Series at the event. She presented it to Peter Gould for his show, Better Call Saul.

Washington's appearance at the event came as a rare day off for the super star, who has four movies coming out soon according to her IMDb page.

Her movies Unprisoned and Shadow Force are currently in post-production, but her upcoming Netflix movie Six Triple Eight is in production.

The movie centers on approximately 850 women who 'joined the war to fix the three-year backlog of undelivered mail. Faced with discrimination and a country devastated by war, they managed to sort more than 17 million pieces of mail ahead of time.'

The film, directed by Tyler Perry, will star Washington alongside Susan Sarandon, Breaking Bad actor, Law & Order star Sam Waterston and television personality Oprah Winfrey.

She will soon start work on the movie 24-7 about a group of accountants who take on their male colleagues to solve a fraud case.","<article>

"'It was disgusting!': Sylvester Stallone, worth $400M, reveals he lived in a transient hotel and shared a bathroom with 20 people before making it big with Rocky in 1976... adding looking back on his old life could make him cry",https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11408815/Sylvester-Stallone-76-reveals-lived-transient-hotel-NYC-big.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11408815/Sylvester-Stallone-76-reveals-lived-transient-hotel-NYC-big.html,2022-11-09T18:41:30+00:00,"Sylvester Stallone, 76, has been promoting his new series Tulsa King in New York City this week.

On Wednesday morning, he dropped by Live With Kelly And Ryan to talk about his early years living in crime-ridden, poverty-stricken Hell's Kitchen in Manhattan.

Before his big break with Rocky in 1976, he resided in a transient hotel and shared a bathroom with around 20 people. 'It was disgusting,' he said. 'You could lay on the bed — open up the window, close it,' he recounted about the cramped living conditions he endured at the time.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, he is worth $400million.

He then talked about revisiting his hometown of Hell's Kitchen.

In response to co-host Kelly Ripa asking if it would be emotional to go back to his old neighborhood and recall where it all began, he said yes.

'Yeah, it really is, because, you know it’s like, you don't want to cry like I was back there. You know, like I took a bath at that fire hydrant,' he shared.

Rocky times: The Rocky actor told Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest about one of his early gigs in his decades-spanning career and how he taught himself about filmmaking

He talked about embracing his emotional propensity, 'I hate to because I am one of those guys that cries at the opening of a letter.

'I do not know why or where that came from...but that’s my feminine.'

One of the first jobs in his early career was as an usher.

He would secretly record shows to later study the dialogue. 'I would listen to the tapes, and I would be like, let me try to write that line differently. Let me try to write that line.'

He began to play a game — 'a crossword type of puzzle' — to discover and develop his own film style. ‘That is what you do when you have nothing to do, right?’

The actor told Kelly and Ryan that's how he taught himself about filmmaking when he couldn’t afford to go to film school at the time. 'Let’s face it, you watch a movie a hundred times and you try to figure out the tricks.'

In his hometown where he lived while struggling to break into the film industry, Stallone revealed his part in creating an upcoming Netflix documentary about the history of Hell's Kitchen.

Later, he spoke about the throwback picture he posted to his Instagram as a tribute honoring the late Queen Elizabeth II. He reminisced about the time when he had the opportunity to meet the queen around his Rocky era.

He described the interaction he had with his favorite queen. 'She actually said, ""Oh, that is Rocky."" And I was like, oh come on.'

On his Tulsa King press tour, Stallone also recently visited Italy. There, he encountered and met another head of state — president Sergio Mattarella.

The Rambo actor was stuck in a parking lot for around three hours because the president was having a meal nearby.

'Everything [was] blocked — the doors, the guards, everything.' When Stallone finally walked in to ask for help to unblock his vehicle, he saw 'a knight in shining armor' guarding the president.

'When the president shows up, they always have this traditional knight hanging around, so I got past the knight, and I was like, ""Hey, how are you doing?""' Stallone said to the president.

The president then told him how to get out of the parking lot and Stallone left for his Tulsa King press event.

The upcoming mob drama will be the award-winning actor's first television debut, but he said he still favors movies.

Stallone said he had no choice in whether or not he only worked in movies anymore: 'The film business as I knew it and grew up with is gone.'

A lot has changed. These days, he observed that the film industry focuses on making 'big, mega, tentpole movies like Marvel'. A 'little' film like Rocky never would have been released but instead streamed.

The new show he will be starring in tells the story of New York mafia capo Dwight 'The General' Manfredi. The protagonist is released from prison and exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

After becoming suspicious of his mob family, The General slowly builds his own crew from a group of unlikely characters to help him establish a new criminal empire.

The first episode will release exclusively on Paramount+ on November 13.","<article>

<p>He began to play a game — 'a crossword type of puzzle' — to discover and develop his own film style. ‘That is what you do when you have nothing to do, right?’</p>

<p>The actor told Kelly and Ryan that's how he taught himself about filmmaking when he couldn’t afford to go to film school at the time. 'Let’s face it, you watch a movie a hundred times and you try to figure out the tricks.'</p>

<p>In his hometown where he lived while struggling to break into the film industry, Stallone revealed his part in creating an upcoming Netflix documentary about the history of Hell's Kitchen.</p>

<p>Later, he spoke about the throwback picture he posted to his Instagram as a tribute honoring the late Queen Elizabeth II. He reminisced about the time when he had the opportunity to meet the queen around his Rocky era.</p>

<p>He described the interaction he had with his favorite queen. 'She actually said, ""Oh, that is Rocky."" And I was like, oh come on.'</p>

<p>On his Tulsa King press tour, Stallone also recently visited Italy. There, he encountered and met another head of state — president Sergio Mattarella.</p>

<p>The Rambo actor was stuck in a parking lot for around three hours because the president was having a meal nearby.</p>

<p>'Everything [was] blocked — the doors, the guards, everything.' When Stallone finally walked in to ask for help to unblock his vehicle, he saw 'a knight in shining armor' guarding the president.</p>

<p>'When the president shows up, they always have this traditional knight hanging around, so I got past the knight, and I was like, ""Hey, how are you doing?""' Stallone said to the president.</p>

<p>The president then told him how to get out of the parking lot and Stallone left for his Tulsa King press event.</p>

<p>The upcoming mob drama will be the award-winning actor's first television debut, but he said he still favors movies.</p>

<p>Stallone said he had no choice in whether or not he only worked in movies anymore: 'The film business as I knew it and grew up with is gone.'</p>

<p>A lot has changed. These days, he observed that the film industry focuses on making 'big, mega, tentpole movies like Marvel'. A 'little' film like Rocky never would have been released but instead streamed.</p>

<p>The new show he will be starring in tells the story of New York mafia capo Dwight 'The General' Manfredi. The protagonist is released from prison and exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Oklahoma.</p>

<p>After becoming suspicious of his mob family, The General slowly builds his own crew from a group of unlikely characters to help him establish a new criminal empire.</p>

<p>The first episode will release exclusively on Paramount+ on November 13.</p>

Nottingham Forest star Jesse Lingard is accused of animal cruelty after sharing Instagram post showing his dogs with cropped ears as he is blasted for the cosmetic procedure that is ILLEGAL in the UK,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-11267599/Nottingham-Forest-star-Jesse-Lingard-accused-animal-cruelty-sharing-Instagram-post.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-11267599/Nottingham-Forest-star-Jesse-Lingard-accused-animal-cruelty-sharing-Instagram-post.html,2022-09-30T23:12:42+01:00,"Nottingham Forest star Jesse Lingard has been slammed on social media after sharing a post showing his new dogs Creed and Cash with cropped ears.

Ear cropping is an illegal procedure in the UK unless performed by a vet for medical reasons, but has become a popular cosmetic surgery for some dog breeds.

Lingard's prized possessions appear to be of Doberman and Mastiff-type breeds with their ears mutilated to look pointy and more pronounced.

Ear cropping is a procedure whereby the floppy part of the ear is cut away and the hard part is then left to grow upwards to promote a more 'attractive' look.

The procedure is usually done on puppies aged between six and 12 weeks and can be extremely traumatic for dogs.

Additionally there is no recognised health benefits to the surgery, with many owners having their dogs ears cropped for fashion purposes.

Lingard, 29, has been accused of animal cruelty since sharing images and videos of his dogs on Instagram with some users blasting the England international for animal abuse.

One commenter on his post that has received over 120,000 likes wrote: 'Ruined 2 amazing dogs! Idiot'.

Another opposed this view however, suggesting that Lingard wasn't in the wrong as they replied: 'The dogs looks pretty healthy. But of course, people will think as always, they have the authority to judge the other.'

The post shared to the former Manchester United player's Instagram platform that has 9.7million followers showed the footballer posing and playing with his two dogs outdoors.

The dogs were bought from Chaperone K9 Ltd who boast on Instagram that they are 'Suppliers of the finest family protection dogs around the world'.

The Leicestershire-based company has previously supplied dogs to Chelsea star Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Arsenal full-back Kieran Tierney.

Protection dogs have seen an increase in popularity amongst footballers as high-profile stars look for new ways to increase their home security after numerous break-ins and robberies at footballers homes.","<article>

ALEX BRUMMER: Andrew Bailey's muddled and flaccid responses to the growing financial crisis have seen the Bank of England Governor's authority drain away,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-11256297/ALEX-BRUMMER-response-financial-crisis-seen-Andrews-Baileys-authority-drain-away.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-11256297/ALEX-BRUMMER-response-financial-crisis-seen-Andrews-Baileys-authority-drain-away.html,2022-09-27T22:29:44+01:00,"This week, the Government’s enemies have been determined to blame the volatile pound on Liz Truss and her Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng — and their bold experiment to re-establish Britain as a low-tax entrepreneurial nation.

These critics appear unaware that it’s the Bank of England, with Andrew Bailey at the helm, that is entrusted with three things: maintaining price stability, preventing disorderly markets and ensuring that City traders do not get out of line.

And on all these fronts, Mr Bailey has failed miserably.

Since he took over from the slick Canadian Mark Carney in March 2020, the Bank’s Governor has presided over nothing less than runaway inflation. He seems not to have grasped the disastrous consequences of a falling pound — and he has shown little inclination to use the authority of his office to calm over-exuberant trading.

Blundering

It used to be said that, faced with frothy markets, the Governor of the Bank of England could ‘exert discipline with a raised eyebrow’. Bailey’s eyebrows could be beetling like mad and traders and speculators would barely notice.

Throughout his ill-fated two-year tenure, his credibility has been repeatedly tested by the various blundering signals he has made to the markets and his dispiriting failure to listen to siren voices around him.

Bailey, 63, tries to attribute Britain’s rampant inflation to Russia’s war on Ukraine and its impact on global energy markets. But the fact is that prices were soaring by 6 per cent even before Vladimir Putin began his mad offensive, and are currently climbing by 9.9 per cent year-on-year.

This is higher than many of our international peers and five times the Bank’s mandated rate of 2 per cent.

Inflation would in fact be heading even higher — banking giant Goldman Sachs was recently projecting more than 20 per cent — had not Ms Truss taken decisive action to limit domestic energy prices within hours of taking office.

That alone knocked about 5 per cent off the prospective cost of living. Not something Labour has found time to mention in its self-congratulatory conference this week.

Bailey was warned about the coming ravages of inflation as far back as May 2021. Writing in this newspaper, the Bank’s then-chief economist Andy Haldane put it bluntly: ‘The inflation genie is out of the bottle.’

Bailey rashly rejected Haldane’s analysis, insisting the rise was temporary.

This open split with the Governor, who lacks the economic credentials of his immediate predecessors Mervyn King and Mark Carney, eventually saw a frustrated Haldane head for the exit, becoming chief executive at the Royal Society of Arts.

Several City grandees felt it was the fiercely intellectual Haldane, with strong views on how to deal with Britain’s regional economic inequalities, who should have been Governor in the first place.

After all, Bailey’s tenure at the accident-prone Financial Conduct Authority was equally inauspicious; a job he took on in 2016 at the behest of then-Chancellor George Osborne.

It was on Bailey’s watch at the FCA that two devastating scandals unfolded: the £268 million London Capital & Finance fund went into administration, and Neil Woodford’s £3 billion investment empire imploded in 2019.

Bailey was subsequently criticised for his handling of the first scandal, receiving a rap across the knuckles from ex-High Court judge Dame Elizabeth Gloster after he sought to have his name expunged from her excoriating official report.

Despite these dispiriting episodes, Bailey’s name was on the shortlist for Bank Governor when Chancellor Sajid Javid — in that post for only six months — picked the next incumbent two years ago.

Bailey’s tenure at the Bank began in March 2020, just as the pandemic descended.

He acted decisively (I suspect the plans had already been put in place by Carney) to slash interest rates and pour money into the economy to prevent businesses going to the wall.

It was his finest hour, but it has been downhill ever since.

As inflation soared in the autumn of 2021, fuelled by supply bottlenecks from Covid-19, the Governor repeatedly insisted that the cost of living surge was ‘transitory’.

It was nothing of the sort and it has become even more entrenched since then.

As prices started to soar, the Governor belatedly acknowledged that inflation might be a problem and made several comments alerting financial markets to the idea that after years of historic low rates, it was finally time to act.

But having, like the Grand Old Duke of York, marched the City traders and banks to the top of the hill, he marched them down again.

Timidity

After saying in October that the Bank would have to act to contain inflation expectations — its own forecasts then predicting inflation to grow to reach 5 per cent by early 2022 — Bailey wrongfooted investors by bottling a November rate rise.

By December he was left with no choice, but he could only muster a nervy 0.15 of a percentage point, bringing the total rate to 0.25 per cent.

The same innate timidity and tendency to miss opportunities were on full display at the Bank’s meeting last week.

Only a few days before, Sweden’s Riksbank had hiked the country’s rates by a full percentage point. The Bank of Canada put rates up by a full point as early as July, and in September added a further 0.75 percentage-point increase.

In the U.S., meanwhile, the all-powerful Federal Reserve had recently raised rates by three-quarters of a point for the third month in a row, its chairman Jerome Powell stating clearly that there was more punishment to come in the battle against inflation.

Why on earth didn’t Bailey take heed of these dire warnings?

He had domestic clues, too: the Prime Minister had only just loosened the budgetary strings with her generous energy packages for households and businesses — and the new Chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, was known to be planning tax cuts.

Confounded

All these measures should have precipitated a robust response from the Bank.

Instead, Bailey confounded international expectations by raising the rate by only half a percentage point last week, instead of the widely expected 0.75 percentage points.

The pound was already in freefall against the dollar, and no fewer than three members of the Bank’s rate-setting Monetary Policy Committee wanted it to go harder — but that wasn’t enough for Bailey.

He had the opportunity to show leadership and, in the words of former deputy governor Charlie Bean, ‘go big and fast’ — but he blew it.

Even his new chief economist Huw Pill is now cautioning that a ‘significant’ rise is necessary. But it seems the Bank will not plan to act before its next scheduled meeting in November.

Firing the ‘independent’ Governor of the Bank of England is more or less politically impossible for Mr Kwarteng and would scare the markets to death.

Bailey is anxious not to be made the scapegoat for Britain’s economic ills. However, his flaccid and muddled responses to events have seen his authority drain away.

Given that he has six years remaining in his eight-year post, he needs to act far more decisively — or we’ll all be paying for his mistakes.","<article>

<p>This week, the Government’s enemies have been determined to blame the volatile pound on <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/liz-truss/index.html"">Liz Truss</a> and her Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng — and their bold experiment to re-establish Britain as a low-tax entrepreneurial nation.</p>

<p>These critics appear unaware that it’s the <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/bank-of-england/index.html"">Bank of England</a>, with <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/andrew-bailey/index.html"">Andrew Bailey</a> at the helm, that is entrusted with three things: maintaining price stability, preventing disorderly markets and ensuring that City traders do not get out of line.</p>

<p>And on all these fronts, Mr Bailey has failed miserably.</p>

<p>Since he took over from the slick Canadian Mark Carney in March 2020, the Bank’s Governor has presided over nothing less than runaway <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/inflation/index.html"">inflation</a>. He seems not to have grasped the disastrous consequences of a falling pound — and he has shown little inclination to use the authority of his office to calm over-exuberant trading.</p>

<p>Blundering</p>

<p>It used to be said that, faced with frothy markets, the Governor of the Bank of England could ‘exert discipline with a raised eyebrow’. Bailey’s eyebrows could be beetling like mad and traders and speculators would barely notice.</p>

<p>Throughout his ill-fated two-year tenure, his credibility has been repeatedly tested by the various blundering signals he has made to the markets and his dispiriting failure to listen to siren voices around him.</p>

<figure><img src=""https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/09/27/22/62860759-0-image-a-25_1664313235539.jpg"" alt=""Throughout his ill-fated two-year tenure, Andrew Bailey's credibility has been repeatedly tested by the various blundering signals he has made to the markets"">   <figcaption><p>Throughout his ill-fated two-year tenure, Andrew Bailey's credibility has been repeatedly tested by the various blundering signals he has made to the markets</p></figcaption></figure>

<p>Bailey, 63, tries to attribute Britain’s rampant inflation to Russia’s war on Ukraine and its impact on global energy markets. But the fact is that prices were soaring by 6 per cent even before Vladimir Putin began his mad offensive, and are currently climbing by 9.9 per cent year-on-year.</p>

<p>This is higher than many of our international peers and five times the Bank’s mandated rate of 2 per cent.</p>

<p>Inflation would in fact be heading even higher — banking giant Goldman Sachs was recently projecting more than 20 per cent — had not Ms Truss taken decisive action to limit domestic energy prices within hours of taking office.</p>

Clarks shoes could leave British ownership after 195 years in £100million rescue deal by Hong Kong-based private equity firm,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8913797/Clarks-shoes-leave-British-ownership-195-years-100m-rescue-deal.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8913797/Clarks-shoes-leave-British-ownership-195-years-100m-rescue-deal.html,2020-11-04T14:56:57+00:00,"Clarks, one the UK's oldest shoe chains, has been rescued in a £100 million investment by Hong Kong-based private equity giant LionRock Capital.

The deal will see the 195-year-old retailer enter into a form of administration known as a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA), with Clarks insisting that no jobs will be lost and staff will continue to be paid.

Bosses said the move will allow them to keep all 320 stores open with no rent on 60 sites.

Clark: 195-year-old firm founded by Quakers that is best known for the Desert Boot

Clarks was established in Street, Somerset, in 1825 when Quakers Cyrus and James Clark moved from making rugs out of sheepskin to footwear by using the off cuts to produce slippers.

More than 22,000 Clarks styles have been produced since, and the chain is perhaps best known for its Desert Boot made of calf suede leather.

More than ten million of the boot were made after Nathan Clark came up with the idea while serving as an officer in the Royal Army Service Corps in Burma during the Second World War in 1941.

They have since been worn by the likes of Liam Gallagher, Bob Dylan, Robbie Williams and even Tony Blair.

It enjoyed a boom in the 2000s as sales of the boots soared and had pre-tax profits of more than £100million.

But the company has been hit in recent years by the decline of the high street which has intensified in recent months thanks to the lockdown that closed all its stores between late March and July.

The business relocated the bulk of its production to Asia in 2005 and shut its last remaining British plant in 2006.

The remaining outlets will be switched to a turnover-based model, where rent is calculated on the amount of cash that goes through the tills, but the process must be voted through by landlords at a meeting next month.

Philip de Klerk, interim finance chief at Clarks, said: 'In order to address the permanent shift in structural shopping behaviour as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the CVA is being launched out of absolute necessity.

'The proposal to creditors outlines a combination of a reduction of rent and a move to rebase Clarks' rental cost base through a turnover-based model that aligns to future performance and reflects the wider retail market.

'As part of the CVA, we will move 60 of our 320 stores to nil rent. It is important to stress that we are not announcing the closure of any stores today, and employees and suppliers will continue to be paid.'

If successful in a vote next month, LionRock will buy a majority stake in Clarks, with the Clark family to remain invested in the business.

That would see the Clark family lose majority ownership of the company for the first time since it was founded by Cyrus and James Clark in 1825.

Gavin Maher, a partner at Deloitte, which is running the CVA process, said: 'The retail trading environment in the UK has been under pressure for some time.

'The Clarks UK business has been faced with weaker consumer confidence and reduced footfall.

'In the midst of Clarks undertaking its transformation plan, Covid-19 exacerbated these challenges, with working capital and turnover significantly impacted, placing acute liquidity pressure on the group.

'The turnover rent model better aligns the risk and reward of trading during these uncertain times, and the CVA, together with the proposed investment from LionRock, provides a stable platform upon which the management's transformation strategy can be delivered.'

The company is the latest in a long line of high street firms which have turned to insolvency specialists to avoid complete collapse.

Retailers including New Look, Jigsaw and Edinburgh Woollen Mill have all used insolvency processes to reduce debts as struggling stores buckled under the pandemic pressures and restrictions on high streets.

Restaurants and bars have also turned to CVAs, with Pizza Express, Revolution Bars and Pizza Hut all using the insolvency tool.

Daniel Tseung, founder and managing director of LionRock Capital, said: 'Clarks is one of the world's most recognised consumer names and we look forward to working with the Clark family in extending its tradition of providing customers with top-quality products and exceptional service.'

Last week, the footwear retailer, based in Somerset, announced it had begun talks with landlords about shop closures and rent reductions with hundreds of jobs reportedly at risk.","<article>

Jihadists slaughter at least 26 women by slitting their throats after Boko Haram commander accused them of being WITCHES who caused the sudden death of his children in Nigeria,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11429885/Jihadists-slaughter-26-women-Boko-Haram-commander-accused-WITCHES.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11429885/Jihadists-slaughter-26-women-Boko-Haram-commander-accused-WITCHES.html,2022-11-15T11:17:33+00:00,"Boko Haram jihadists slaughtered at least 26 women by slitting their throats after their commander accused them of being witches who caused the sudden death of his children in Nigeria.

Around 40 women were held in a village near Gwoza town in Borno State, north-eastern Nigeria, on the orders of jihadist commander Ali Guyile after his children suddenly died overnight, according to relatives and a woman who escaped.

They said the commander had accused the women of causing the children's deaths through witchcraft.

On Thursday last week, 14 women were slaughtered in Gwoza town and a few days later, another 12 were killed by the Boko Haram jihadists.

Accusations of witchcraft are not uncommon in Nigeria, a religious conservative country almost equally divided between the mostly Muslim north and Christian south.

Northeast Nigeria is at the heart of a conflict involving security forces and Boko Haram and rival Islamic State West Africa Province jihadists that has killed more than 40,000 people.

The survivors of the most recent Boko Haram attack said Guyile, a 35-year-old commander, asked his men to arrest the group of 40 women from homes known to practise witchcraft.

Talkwe Linbe, one of the accused women, said she managed to escape and fled to the regional capital Maiduguri after the killing of 14 women on Thursday.

'He (Guyile) said he would investigate our involvement in the deaths of his children,' she said.

'On Thursday he ordered 14 among us to be slaughtered. I was lucky I was not among them.'

Her relationship to Boko Haram was not clear, but jihadists often force residents in territory under their influence into work or relationships.

The relatives and residents AFP interviewed did not specify how the women died but the term they used in Hausa usually refers to jihadists slitting victims' throats.

Contacted by AFP, Nigeria's military did not respond. But security sources said they were aware of the reports and were investigating, although they stressed the village was very remote.

A Borno State government official said they were checking.

On Saturday, the day Linbe arrived in Maiduguri, 12 more women were slaughtered accused of being witches, other relatives said.

'I received a call from Gwoza that my mother, two aunts and nine other women were slaughtered yesterday (Saturday) on the orders of Ali Guyile who accused them of being witches,' said Abdullahi Gyya, who lives in Maiduguri.

He also said he was told of the killing of an initial 14 women on Thursday.

Tijjani Usman, who lives in Maiduguri but originates from Gwoza, said calls he received from relations in Gwoza corroborated Linbe and Gyya's accounts.

Boko Haram seized Gwoza in July 2014. Although it was retaken by Nigerian troops the following March, the jihadists continue to raid nearby villages.","<article>

<p>Boko Haram jihadists slaughtered at least 26 women by slitting their throats after their commander accused them of being witches who caused the sudden death of his children in <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/nigeria/index.html"">Nigeria</a>.</p>

<p>Around 40 women were held in a village near Gwoza town in Borno State, north-eastern Nigeria, on the orders of jihadist commander Ali Guyile after his children suddenly died overnight, according to relatives and a woman who escaped.</p>

<p>They said the commander had accused the women of causing the children's deaths through witchcraft.</p>

<p>On Thursday last week, 14 women were slaughtered in Gwoza town and a few days later, another 12 were killed by the Boko Haram jihadists.</p>

<p>Accusations of witchcraft are not uncommon in Nigeria, a religious conservative country almost equally divided between the mostly Muslim north and Christian south.</p>

<p>Northeast Nigeria is at the heart of a conflict involving security forces and Boko Haram and rival Islamic State West Africa Province jihadists that has killed more than 40,000 people.</p>

<p>The survivors of the most recent Boko Haram attack said Guyile, a 35-year-old commander, asked his men to arrest the group of 40 women from homes known to practise witchcraft.</p>

<p>Talkwe Linbe, one of the accused women, said she managed to escape and fled to the regional capital Maiduguri after the killing of 14 women on Thursday.</p>

<p>'He (Guyile) said he would investigate our involvement in the deaths of his children,' she said.</p>

<p>'On Thursday he ordered 14 among us to be slaughtered. I was lucky I was not among them.'</p>

<p>Her relationship to Boko Haram was not clear, but jihadists often force residents in territory under their influence into work or relationships.</p>

<p>The relatives and residents AFP interviewed did not specify how the women died but the term they used in Hausa usually refers to jihadists slitting victims' throats.</p>

<p>Contacted by AFP, Nigeria's military did not respond. But security sources said they were aware of the reports and were investigating, although they stressed the village was very remote.</p>

<p>A Borno State government official said they were checking.</p>

<p>On Saturday, the day Linbe arrived in Maiduguri, 12 more women were slaughtered accused of being witches, other relatives said.</p>

Kate Hudson is enjoying some quality family time as she and her brood escape to Aspen for the holidays.

She stepped out Monday with mom Goldie Hawn and partner Danny Fujikawa for some last minute Christmas shopping.

The 40-year-old bundled up for the outing in a hooded white fur coat with red and blue stripes down the sleeves.

She wore the jacket over a grey fleece leopard-print pullover with a pair of slim black joggers.

Hudson wore her hair up in a clip as she completed the look with a pair of sunglasses hanging from her shirt and black Timberland boots.

She enjoyed a warm beverage with Fujikawa, 33, as they strolled through downtown Aspen.

He sported a navy blue shearling jacket trimmed in white fur and a grey Fox Racing baseball cap.

Kate Hudson joined her family for their annual trip to Aspen, Colorado for Christmas break.

The blonde actress looked cozy and casual in a black jean and faux fur coat look from Moncler.

We love the side stripe detailing that instantly identifies the coat as Moncler for those in the know, and the fluffy faux fur is perfect for the chilly climate this time of year.

Buy this exact coat from Luisaviaroma to the right for $1300.

We're still in the dead of winter so we're looking for any excuse to pick up another coat. Take a cue from Kate and have a look at our edit of alternatives below.

It's getting ugly: Olivia Molly Rogers' ex-husband Justin McKeone takes a swipe at model after nasty custody battle over their pet pooch Ziggy: 'It's always been me',https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11617165/Olivia-Molly-Rogers-ex-Justin-McKeone-takes-swipe-model-custody-battle-pooch-Ziggy.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11617165/Olivia-Molly-Rogers-ex-Justin-McKeone-takes-swipe-model-custody-battle-pooch-Ziggy.html,2023-01-10T03:29:26+00:00,"Olivia Molly Rogers' ex-husband Justin McKeone has taken a swipe at the beauty queen after their nasty custody battle over their cute pooch Ziggy.

The finance officer was awarded custody of Ziggy in October, and on Monday he posted a precious video of the dog taking a stroll through a Melbourne park.

He captioned the video with some pointed words: 'Good to be back in our fav park - I think he missed me.'

A follower asked Justin 'who looks after Ziggy?' and he didn't mince words in his response.

'It's always been me,' was his pointed reply.

His remark alludes to the ugly custody battle he and Olivia went through last year over Ziggy, which Justin eventually won.

Olivia was left heartbroken after losing Ziggy following her split from her husband-of-seven-months.

She posted about her pooch in October to Instagram Stories, clarifying the dog was no longer living with her.

'I know you all adore Ziggy and I keep on getting asked about him. He does not live with me anymore,' she posted.

'Justin has taken him. I am devastated and don't want to talk about it further,' she added.

Meanwhile, her estranged husband rubbed salt in her wounds after gaining full canine custody.

After Olivia told fans she was 'devastated' about losing ownership of her beloved pup, Justin appeared to gloat by uploading a photo of himself and Ziggy on Instagram.

The photo showed Justin beaming as he posed with the dog on his lap at an outdoor café in Melbourne.

Rumours about Olivia and Justin's marriage began swirling in September after fans noticed she'd reverted to her maiden name on Instagram and unpinned all photos from her February wedding.

Olivia later confirmed on Instagram they had broken up.","<article>

Fury as Iran FINALLY admits it sent Russia 'suicide drones' used by Putin to rain down death on Ukraine: Kyiv warns the Islamic Republic the 'consequences of helping Moscow will be greater than the benefits',https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11393945/Fury-Iran-FINALLY-admits-sent-Russia-suicide-drones-used-Putin-rain-death-Ukraine.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11393945/Fury-Iran-FINALLY-admits-sent-Russia-suicide-drones-used-Putin-rain-death-Ukraine.html,2022-11-05T18:14:40+00:00,"Iran sparked fury in Kyiv as the country admitted for the first time on Saturday that it had sent drones to Russia - but insisted they were supplied to its ally before Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.

In response, Kyiv has warned Iran that the 'consequences' of supporting Russia in its war against Ukraine are greater than the 'benefits'.

This comes as Kyiv and its Western allies have accused Russia of using Iranian-made 'kamikaze' drones in recent weeks to carry out attacks in Ukraine and hit key infrastructure sites.

Previously, Tehran denied the accusations, but on Saturday Iran's foreign minister said a small number of the vehicles had been sent to Moscow.

Iran's Hossein Amir-Abdollahian was quoted as saying that drones had been sent to Russia before the invasion began in late February.

'We supplied Russia with a limited number of drones months before the war in Ukraine,' the official news agency IRNA quoted Amir-Abdollahian as saying.

For weeks, Russian forces have rained missiles and explosive drones onto Ukraine infrastructure, as a major Ukrainian ground offensive - propelled by Western arms deliveries - has pushed Russian troops back in swathes of the country.

Russian strikes over the past month have destroyed around a third of Ukraine's power stations and the government has urged Ukrainians to conserve electricity as much as possible.

Ukraine's state energy company on Saturday announced additional power rationing in Kyiv and several other regions of the country.

'In a telephone conversation with the Ukrainian foreign minister last week, we agreed that if there was evidence (of Moscow's use of Iranian drones), he would provide it to us,' Amir-Abdollahian said.

'If the Ukrainian side keeps its promise, we can discuss this issue in the coming days and we will take into account their evidence,' he added.

And he again denied Iran had supplied missiles to Russia, calling the accusations 'completely false'.

In response Ukraine's foreign ministry spokesman hit back and warned Iran on Saturday in a post on Facebook that 'the consequences of complicity' with Moscow would be 'greater than the benefit from Russia's support.'

'Tehran should realise that the consequences of complicity in the crimes of the Russian Federation's aggression against Ukraine will be much greater than the benefit of Russia's support,' foreign ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko said.

Kyiv claims around 400 Iranian drones have already been used against the civilian population of Ukraine and that Moscow has ordered around 2,000.

Britain and the European Union have imposed sanctions on three Iranian generals and an arms firm accused of supplying Russia with drones.

Ukrainian and Russian forces appear to be gearing up for a fierce battle in Kherson, a southern city with a population of around 288,000 people before the conflict.

It was the first major Ukrainian city to fall to Russian forces after the Moscow invasion.

Russia has been pulling civilians out of the Kherson region, with President Vladimir Putin saying residents must be 'removed' from danger zones.

But Kyiv has likened the departures to Soviet-style 'deportations' of its people.

The Ukrainian presidency has accused the Russians of 'trying to identify residents who refuse to be evacuated' to Moscow-occupied areas further away from the front line.

A judge in a Ukrainian town controlled by Moscow was in a 'serious' condition after surviving an assassination attempt, a separatist leader in Donetsk said Saturday.","<article>

Hailey Bieber puts her legs front and center in tiny grey shorts and billowing Canada sweatshirt... after THAT friendly display with former love rival Selena Gomez,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11325751/Hailey-Bieber-puts-leggy-display-tiny-grey-shorts-billowing-Canada-sweatshirt.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11325751/Hailey-Bieber-puts-leggy-display-tiny-grey-shorts-billowing-Canada-sweatshirt.html,2022-10-18T00:30:49+01:00,"Hailey Bieber was spotted for the first time after putting on a friendly display with her former love rival Selena Gomez.

The model, 25, put her legs front and center in a pair of tiny grey shorts as she stepped out in Beverly Hills on Monday.

She gave her husband Justin Bieber 's home country a style shout-out with her billowing ' Canada ' sweatshirt.

The catwalk queen strutted out into the sunshine wearing white trainers and chunky socks which were pulled past her ankles.

Hailey added a glam touch with a petite leather purse looped over her shoulder in addition to fashionable frames.

She appeared to have her hair slicked back into a bun with minimal makeup coating her complexion.

The outing comes two days after Hailey sent the internet into overdrive by posing for photos with Selena Gomez at the Academy Museum's second annual gala at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.

Just two weeks after the supermodel publicly denied stealing her husband Justin Bieber from the pop star, 30, the duo looked friendlier than ever as they smiled with their faces close together during the star-studded event.

As the Vogue cover girl sat straight in her chair with one hand by her side and the other on her thigh, the Lose You to Love Me hitmaker had one of her arms gently wrapped around Hailey's leg as she kneeled by her side.

Other snaps showed them standing up and hugging as Hailey held a cocktail and Gomez made it clear she holds no resentment toward her ex-boyfriend's wife by warmly embracing her.

Hello gorgeous: She appeared to have her hair slicked back into a bun with minimal makeup coating her complexion

Both women, who have been pitted against one another for years, looked cheerful as they chatted and shut down any speculation of drama between them.

Their decision to be photographed together was reportedly to show the public 'there's no beef or bad feelings' anymore, a source told ET.

'Selena and Hailey were both super chill together at the Academy Museum Gala. They've both moved on and are happy in their own lives,' the insider revealed. 'They wanted to show the world that there's no beef or bad feelings between them anymore.'

As for Justin, who did not attend the gala, he is said to be 'very happy with the fact that they can all move on and that it can be peaceful between everyone.'

The duo's sighting together comes after Hailey set the record straight about the timeline of her and Justin's relationship after years of fan-driven speculation that she 'stole' him from Gomez.

During her appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast last month, the Rhode founder insisted to host Alexis Cooper that Justin, 28, had not cheated on Gomez with her.

'No, not once,' she stated, adding that she and Justin began 'hooking up' after he'd already split from his former on/off girlfriend in early 2018.

'When him and I started hooking up, or anything of that sort, he was not in any relationship, It's not my character to mess with someone's relationship, I was raised better than that,' Hailey stressed.

Justin and Hailey, who'd had a previous fling in 2016, rekindled their flame in mid-2018. They were engaged by July - two months after his breakup with Selena - and tied the knot two months later.

'I understand how it looks from the outside, but that was a situation where I know for a fact that it was the right thing for [Justin and Selena] to close that door, but of course, there's a very long history there and I respect that a lot.

'I don't want to talk on either one of their behalf's,' she explained.

Meanwhile Selena seemed to reference the events in her 2020 hit song, Lose You to Love Me, with the lyrics, 'In two months you replaced us like it was easy.'","<article>

<p>As for Justin, who did not attend the gala, he is said to be 'very happy with the fact that they can all move on and that it can be peaceful between everyone.'</p>

<p>The duo's sighting together comes after Hailey set the record straight about the timeline of her and Justin's relationship after years of fan-driven speculation that she 'stole' him from Gomez.</p>

<p>During her appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast last month, the Rhode founder insisted to host Alexis Cooper that Justin, 28, had not cheated on Gomez with her.</p>

<figure><img src=""https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/10/18/00/63574381-11325751-image-a-45_1666048880709.jpg"" alt=""Off she goes!

<p>'No, not once,' she stated, adding that she and Justin began 'hooking up' after he'd already split from his former on/off girlfriend in early 2018.</p>

<p>'When him and I started hooking up, or anything of that sort, he was not in any relationship, It's not my character to mess with someone's relationship, I was raised better than that,' Hailey stressed.</p>

<p>Justin and Hailey, who'd had a previous fling in 2016, rekindled their flame in mid-2018. They were engaged by July - two months after his breakup with Selena - and tied the knot two months later.</p>

<p>'I understand how it looks from the outside, but that was a situation where I know for a fact that it was the right thing for [Justin and Selena] to close that door, but of course, there's a very long history there and I respect that a lot.</p>

<p>'I don't want to talk on either one of their behalf's,' she explained.</p>

<p>Meanwhile Selena seemed to reference the events in her 2020 hit song, Lose You to Love Me, with the lyrics, 'In two months you replaced us like it was easy.'</p>

Despite a frigid winter storm across the United States knocking out power at some theaters and shut down highways, the highly-awaited science fiction epic managed to cross the cross the $700 million mark worldwide, according to The Wrap.

The outlet reported that industry experts predicted a 'much higher' total for the movie over the last four days, after it garnered $434.5million at the box office during its global debut.

Avatar's director James Cameron said the film, which tied with The Batman as the fourth highest domestic debut of the year needs to earn $2 billion to break even.

The original Avatar didn't have a monstrous opening weekend, opening in mid-December 2009 to $77 million... though it ultimately grossed a then-record $749.7 million domestic and a still-record $2.7 billion (which has since grown to $785.2 million domestic and $2.9 billion global with re-releases).

Some box office analysts predicted that Avatar: The Way of Water could be just the fourth December release to cross the $200 million opening weekend threshold.

The only three films to accomplish that feat were Marvel's 2021 blockbuster Spider-Man: No Way Home and two of the three Star Wars sequels - 2015's Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($248 million) and 2017's Star Wars: The Last Jedi ($220 million).

The original Avatar's road to box office history was an unusual one, with most top-grossing films accomplishing this with top-loaded massive opening weekends.

Back in 2009, the opening weekend box office record was held by The Dark Knight, which opened to $158.4 million in mid-July 2008, topping out at $533.3 million domestic and just over $1 billion worldwide.

Avatar's success was largely due to consistent viewings at a level rarely seen at the box office, which allowed it to maintain the top spot for eight weeks in a row.

While most films drop off 50% or more in its second weekend and beyond, Avatar dropped just 1.8% in its second weekend and 9.4% in its third weekend, never dropping more than 50% until its 16th weekend of its 34-week run.

Avatar: The Way of Water brings fans back to the magical world of Pandora, where former Marine Jake Sully has made a new life and family with Neytiri (Zoe Saldana).

<p>The only three films to accomplish that feat were Marvel's 2021 blockbuster Spider-Man: No Way Home and two of the three Star Wars sequels - 2015's Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($248 million) and 2017's Star Wars: The Last Jedi ($220 million).</p>

<p>The original Avatar's road to box office history was an unusual one, with most top-grossing films accomplishing this with top-loaded massive opening weekends.</p>

<p>Back in 2009, the opening weekend box office record was held by The Dark Knight, which opened to $158.4 million in mid-July 2008, topping out at $533.3 million domestic and just over $1 billion worldwide.</p>

<p>Avatar's success was largely due to consistent viewings at a level rarely seen at the box office, which allowed it to maintain the top spot for eight weeks in a row.</p>

Rizwan Sami, 37, defrauded Egmont UK Ltd for more than a year and sent some of the money to elderly relatives in Pakistan.

Egmont UK Ltd - the British arm of Danish media giant Egmont Group - is also the publisher for Thomas & Friends and Michael Morpurgo.

Sami appeared at Southwark Crown Court this morning wearing a red puffer jacket and blue surgical face mask.

He admitted fraud by abuse of position and was given a suspended jail sentence after a judge heard he has paid back £85,000 and will pay £750 a month to settle the balance.

Josh Normanton, defending, said the married father-of-one is currently 'staring into the abyss' and pleaded for him not to be jailed.

'He acts as a primary carer for dependant relatives. He would have a wife and child left in an extremely vulnerable position if he is sent to prison.'

Sami, originally from Pakistan, came to the UK in 2009 and studied for a postgraduate diploma in Marketing at Anglia Ruskin University. He became a British citizen in 2017.

'At the end of 2015 the nature of his work changed, and he was asked to take on far more work and even take on the work of others whose employment had ended, he asked for more money but wasn't given it.

'He began offending in July 2016 into early 2017, some of the money went out to Pakistan to his elderly relatives

'He accepts his offences includes a lot of dishonesty and greed.

'He decided to stop acting in that way, as he gained something of a conscience, and left the role of an accountant in 2017.

'Clearly he didn't have the strength of character to return to Egmont and own up to what he had done,' said Mr Normanton.

Since the offences Sami has been involved in many charity fundraising events including 'Feed The Homeless' events and volunteered throughout the covid-19 pandemic.

'He is now an employee of a software company and is no longer doing accounting.

'He is a different man to the man he was since the start of 2015; he is involved in faith activities and is now a father and husband, all of that is against the backdrop of a struggle with mental health since 2017.' said Mr Normanton

Since he was charged last year Sami has repaid £85,000 back to Egmont, the court heard.

Judge James Tayler said: 'This falls in high culpability because of the abuse of the defendant's position of power trust and responsibility.

'I respect the defendant has real remorse for what has occurred, there has been a significant time of apprehension between the charging of this offence and coming to sentence.

'The defendant has now paid back £85,000. I consider that those factors together with the very considerable work he has done in his community should be taken into account.

'I still conclude that this is an offence so serious that only a custodial sentence can be justified, it is unavoidable that there be a sentence of imprisonment.'

Sami, of Putney, admitted fraud by abuse of position, between 22 July 2016 and 19 September 2017.

He was sentenced to two years imprisonment, suspended for two years, and ordered to pay back £750 a month for three years.","<article>

<p>He admitted fraud by abuse of position and was given a suspended jail sentence after a judge heard he has paid back £85,000 and will pay £750 a month to settle the balance.</p>

<p>Josh Normanton, defending, said the married father-of-one is currently 'staring into the abyss' and pleaded for him not to be jailed.</p>

<p>'He acts as a primary carer for dependant relatives. He would have a wife and child left in an extremely vulnerable position if he is sent to prison.'</p>

<p>Sami, originally from Pakistan, came to the UK in 2009 and studied for a postgraduate diploma in Marketing at Anglia Ruskin University. He became a British citizen in 2017.</p>

<p>'At the end of 2015 the nature of his work changed, and he was asked to take on far more work and even take on the work of others whose employment had ended, he asked for more money but wasn't given it.</p>

<p>'He began offending in July 2016 into early 2017, some of the money went out to Pakistan to his elderly relatives</p>

<p>'He accepts his offences includes a lot of dishonesty and greed.</p>

<p>'He decided to stop acting in that way, as he gained something of a conscience, and left the role of an accountant in 2017.</p>

<p>'Clearly he didn't have the strength of character to return to Egmont and own up to what he had done,' said Mr Normanton.</p>

<p>Since the offences Sami has been involved in many charity fundraising events including 'Feed The Homeless' events and volunteered throughout the covid-19 pandemic.</p>

<p>'He is now an employee of a software company and is no longer doing accounting.</p>

<p>'He is a different man to the man he was since the start of 2015; he is involved in faith activities and is now a father and husband, all of that is against the backdrop of a struggle with mental health since 2017.' said Mr Normanton</p>

<p>Since he was charged last year Sami has repaid £85,000 back to Egmont, the court heard.</p>

<p>Judge James Tayler said: 'This falls in high culpability because of the abuse of the defendant's position of power trust and responsibility.</p>

<p>'I respect the defendant has real remorse for what has occurred, there has been a significant time of apprehension between the charging of this offence and coming to sentence.</p>

<p>'The defendant has now paid back £85,000. I consider that those factors together with the very considerable work he has done in his community should be taken into account.</p>

<p>'I still conclude that this is an offence so serious that only a custodial sentence can be justified, it is unavoidable that there be a sentence of imprisonment.'</p>

<p>Sami, of Putney, admitted fraud by abuse of position, between 22 July 2016 and 19 September 2017.</p>

<p>He was sentenced to two years imprisonment, suspended for two years, and ordered to pay back £750 a month for three years.</p>

Don't worry about germs and always expect tears during drop off: Former preschool teacher reveals the five things EVERY parent should know before sending their kids to school,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11387685/Dont-worry-germs-expect-tears-drop-Preschool-teacher-shares-advice-parents.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11387685/Dont-worry-germs-expect-tears-drop-Preschool-teacher-shares-advice-parents.html,2022-11-04T12:49:40+00:00,"A former preschool teacher has shared the five things that she wishes parents new before sending their kids to school for the first time - including advice on how to get through the tear-filled goodbyes when you drop them off and why you shouldn't worry so much about them getting exposed to germs.

Christina Montoya Fiedler, a former preschool teacher-turned-journalist and mother-of-two from Los Angeles, California, said there's 'so many things' she learned from working with young children; and now, she has shared her expertise with the world through an essay for Insider, in the hopes of making the transition easier for both the preschoolers - and the parents.

According to the writer, adults shouldn't be alarmed if their kids start crying when they drop them off at school; she insisted that the tears never last long - thanks to their short attention spans and the mass amounts of distractions that are present in the classroom.

She also dished on why parents shouldn't worry so much about what they pack their child for lunch, and revealed why they can expect some major changes in their kids after they start school.

Christina also opened up about why she believes a child's preschool years are the best, and arguably most important, years of their lives, while reminding parents to not take them for granted.

Here are the five things Christina said all parents should know before sending their children to preschool.

Tears during drop off are completely normal - but never last long

It's only normal that parents get worried when leaving their kids at preschool for the first time, especially if they cry when it comes time to say goodbye.

But Christina explained that parents shouldn't be alarmed by their children's tears during drop-off because it's completely normal - and never lasts long.

'There will inevitably be tears when you leave your child for the first time. This is normal,' she wrote.

'But as soon as you leave their line of sight, I promise that they're OK. There might be some sniffles, but if there's one thing preschool teachers excel at, it's the art of distraction.'

The former teacher explained that the classrooms are filled with various toys and activities that help quickly take the kids' minds off the fact that they've been separated from their parents, and ensured it 'won't take long for them to get sidetracked.'

She continued: 'In a preschool setting, children can roam independently, and it's always a joy to see what they are drawn to first. Maybe they'll team up with a new friend and build with blocks.

'A gentle hand is all they need to get acclimated to their new setting. And as the days go by, drop-off will become easier - for both of you.'

Your child may undergo some serious changes as they try new things

Going to school for the first time is a big thing for a young child, and Christina pointed out that it will most likely fuel some major changes in their personality and interests as they're exposed to new people and activities.

'Think of preschoolers as a blank slate. For many, this is their first big experience away from home,' she said. 'They are brilliant, but most importantly, they are adaptable.

'As they learn to navigate their new surroundings, they are soaking up everything and learning the basics of friendships, conflict resolution, cooperative play, and more.

The journalist called it an opportunity for them to 'blossom' and really figure out who they are.

'This is a time for them to blossom. And they do,' she added. 'They come home talking about new things [with] proof of all the activities they participated in that day - glittery clothes, paint-stained hands, sticky faces, and palpable excitement.'

There's no avoiding germs - but they'll help build their immune systems

Germ exposure is a common fear among parents who are sending their kids to school for the first time, but Christina said it's pretty much unavoidable, so it's best to accept it

Germ exposure is a common fear among parents who are sending their kids to school for the first time, but Christina said it's pretty much unavoidable, so it's best to accept it.

'Preschoolers love to use their hands. Unfortunately, those hands sometimes end up in their mouths,' she pointed out.

'But all the sanitizing and handwashing in the world won't keep them from getting sick.

'In fact, my kids were never as sick as when they first started preschool. This was their first time in a group environment, which means an added risk of being exposed to germs.'

And while being exposed to all sorts of new germs can certainly be scary, she added that it will help strengthen their immune system - resulting in the kids becoming healthier in the long run.

'Their little bodies are slowly building up immunity and, in time, they will be healthier than ever,' she stated.

When it comes to packing lunch, you can never win

Christina knows first hand how frustrating it could be when you work hard to pack your child an elaborate and delicious lunch, and they hardly eat it or come home complaining that they want something else.

But she explained that parents shouldn't take it to heart, because kids always want what they see someone else eating.

'Parents have the best intentions when it comes to packing lunches for their preschoolers,' she told Insider.

'I've seen some pretty elaborate lunches - couscous and veggies, sliced deli meats and cheese on individual skewers, and tropical fruit salads.

'It doesn't matter what you pack, they will want something else. And that something is whatever the person next to them is having. Don't take it personally.'

The former preschool teacher added the lunch can be a 'difficult time' for children because they're 'hungry, ready for a nap, but too amped up' to sit still for long.

'They also can't wait to get on the playground [for recess],' she added. 'But rest assured, we make sure their tummies are full, even if that means helping them take a few bites.'

Don't take the preschool years for granted because you'll miss them when they're over

Christina's last piece of advice for parents of preschool kids was to not take it for granted - because you'll most likely miss the simplicity of preschool once your kids get older.

'Preschool is such a simple, happy time in a child's life. There's not a care in the world. No homework, no responsibilities, just the opportunity to learn through play,' she explained.

'Once grade school starts, academics are pushed to the forefront. As a parent, you'll be monitoring their progress and helping with homework, in addition to carting them to various extracurricular activities.

'It's a dizzying mental load. Preschool might seem hectic, but trust me, you'll miss it once it's gone.'

The mother-of-two added that preschool is an opportunity for parents to 'grow with their children,' and is one of the 'biggest stages of growth for both of you.'

'Be as gentle with yourself as teachers are with your children. We promise that your kids are just fine,' she concluded.","<article>

In a video shared on social media, it appears the boy has tried to climb over the barriers but slips and falls head first down a gap in front of the seats.

A man who appears to be his father runs to the side to try and catch him but slips and then jumps over the barrier to help his son.

The video was posted by Twitter account @Menners and captioned: 'I hope this toddler is ok...'

Menners. Hope all well. I’m not in Hobart for this one, but understand that the kid is thankfully ok.

Someone responded saying: 'Menners. Hope all well. I’m not in Hobart for this one, but understand that the kid is thankfully ok.'

The frightening scenes were caught on SkySports live TV during Scotland's win over the West Indies in Group B of the competition on Monday.

Despite the dramatic clip, one user joked: 'Better hope Mum doesn't watch Cricket. Should be pretty safe #notout'.

Royal aide who claims they were bullied by the Duchess of Sussex urges Buckingham Palace to release staff from non-disclosure arrangements and 'reject Harry and Meghan's lies' ahead of Netflix series launch,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11510193/Royal-aide-claims-bullied-Duchess-Sussex-urges-Palace-end-NDAs.html?ico=topics_pagination_desktop,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11510193/Royal-aide-claims-bullied-Duchess-Sussex-urges-Palace-end-NDAs.html,2022-12-07T01:35:24+00:00,"A former Buckingham Palace employee who claims to have been bullied by the Duchess of Sussex has urged it to release staff from non-disclosure arrangements so they can reject Harry and Meghan's 'lies' ahead of their Netflix series.

In a second trailer for their docu-series Harry & Meghan, released on Monday, Prince Harry, 38, alleged the couple suffered from leaks and stories that had been planted which backed up the Royal Family 'hierarchy'.

Meanwhile, allies of the couple told Netflix cameras there was 'a war against Meghan to suit other people's agendas', with one claiming: 'It's about hatred, it's about race.'

In the clips, the duke also took aim at royal aides, smirking as he commented: 'It's a dirty game.'

The former staffer, who signed a confidentiality agreement, has urged the palace to lift non-disclosure agreements so they can respond to 'attacks' from the Sussexes.

The former employee urged Buckingham Palace to release staff from non-disclosure arrangements

During the second teaser for the series, a friend is heard claiming that the couple's experience has been 'about hatred, about race' as a strikingly intimate and previously unseen clip flashes up of an exasperated Harry, 38, holding a hand to his face as Meghan passes behind him while heavily pregnant with their daughter Lili

'The only way to end it once for good is for us to be allowed to speak, and for the palace to firmly reject their lies,' the former employee told The Times.

'I certainly have chosen to remain silent out of respect for the crown, but if they keep attacking us and our characters, reputation etc. we need to feel we are equally supported by the Royal Family.'

The first three episodes will be released on Thursday, with the following three released the week after.

It will include allegations that the palace leaked and planted stories about the couple and that the duchess, 41, was a victim of racially-motivated attacks.

Palace staff are said to be 'seething with rage' after the series trailers were released, a source told the newspaper.

Royal sources have insisted it was 'absolutely wrong' to suggest the couple had been briefed against and insisted 'unprecedented steps' had been taken to support them.

One insider told The Daily Telegraph that royal staff were instead 'bending over backwards to work with them'.

They added it was 'non-stop on their behalf' when it came to defending them against negative stories — which began when rumours emerged of the couple's behavior towards staff.

Another said the narrative comparing Meghan to Kate was 'fabricated' with no difference between how they were treated by the Press.

It is unclear whether the series will touch on allegations that the duchess bullied staff.

The claims were investigated in a report, which Buckingham Palace refused to publish, and Meghan has denied the allegations.

The palace said it will not respond to any claims made in the trailers and is concentrating on the Royal Family's scheduled engagements this week.

It did not respond to the request to lift non-disclosure agreements made with staff or former employees.

It comes as Harry and Meghan accepted an 'anti-racism' award at the Ripple of Hope gala in New York on Tuesday night.

The couple attended the gala — an event for which tickets were being sold for up to $1million each — to accept an award from the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation, a prize that counts Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton among former recipients.

RFK's daughter Kerry Kennedy revealed last month she had chosen to honour Harry and Meghan for taking a 'heroic' stance against 'structural racism' in the Royal Family — comments that likely only served to drive an even bigger wedge between the Sussexes and the monarchy.

While the monarchy has no doubt been rocked by the release of the couple's second Netflix trailer, senior royals proved on Tuesday evening that the show will go on — even in the face of incoming attacks from the Sussexes — when they put on a glitzy display at their own event.

While Meghan and Harry made an appearance in New York, the Royal Family - including the Prince and Princess of Wales - threatened to 'out-glitz' them at a Buckingham Palace reception, which took place just hours earlier

King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla were joined by the Prince and Princess of Wales at Buckingham Palace for the annual white tie diplomatic corps reception.

Camilla, 75, looked stunning in an Anna Valentine gown with the Queen’s much-loved sapphire and diamond tiara with its matching necklace.

Meanwhile the Princess of Wales wore a red lace dress by Jenny Packham with the Lotus Flower tiara she has on occasions worn before.

She had her GCVO and Royal Family orders pinned to her dress and sported a pair of Queen Elizabeth’s diamond earrings.

It came after the Prince and Princess of Wales looked loved-up in behind-the-scenes Instagram snaps of this year's Earthshot Prize awards ceremony in Boston.

The royal couple, both 40, appeared to channel Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — who recently shared intimate photos in a Netflix trailer for their documentary later this week — in theatrical black and white shots.","<article>

<p>It comes as Harry and Meghan accepted an 'anti-racism' award at the Ripple of Hope gala in New York on Tuesday night.</p>

<p>The couple attended the gala — an event for which tickets were being sold for up to $1million each — to accept an award from the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation, a prize that counts Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton among former recipients.</p>

<p>RFK's daughter Kerry Kennedy revealed last month she had chosen to honour Harry and Meghan for taking a 'heroic' stance against 'structural racism' in the Royal Family — comments that likely only served to drive an even bigger wedge between the Sussexes and the monarchy.</p>

<p>While the monarchy has no doubt been rocked by the release of the couple's second Netflix trailer, senior royals proved on Tuesday evening that the show will go on — even in the face of incoming attacks from the Sussexes — when they put on a glitzy display at their own event.</p>

The Canadian was clad in $150 Prada shades and carried a $1,410 Louis Vuitton bag as she enjoyed a spot of retail therapy with the athlete, 47, following his split from Kathryne Padgett, 25, last month.

Mom-of-two Jaclyn, who offers a six-week fitness transformation plan on her website, regularly shares snaps of her impressive figure on Instagram.

The duo were spotted walking out in California wearing casual ensembles as they shopped around.

Cordeiro wore relaxed white flared jeans, along with a gorgeous dusty pink cropped sweater and a long beige jacket while holding on to her new beau's arm.

The fitness guru matched the outfit with a pair of flip flops and wore her blonde locks in a side parting.

The blonde beauty, who is also a registered nurse, offers an array of personal training sessions on her website, along with six-week plant-based programs, with prices beginning at C$450.

She also offers 10-minute 'check-in' calls to support customers, for C$35, and a 30-minute life coaching call for C$90.

As well as being a personal transformation specialist coach, Cordeiro is a fitness influencer and boasts over 66,000 followers on Instagram.

Speaking to Oxygen magazine earlier this year, Jaclyn revealed she returned to competitive weightlifting just five months after the birth of her second child.

She also detailed how she is teaching her two daughters about her own approach to fitness and wellbeing.

Alex Rodriguez's A-list dating history

Alex Rodriguez divorced his wife Cynthia Scurtis in 2008 - after six years of marriage.

They have two daughters, named Natasha and Ella, together.

There were then rumors of him being linked to Madonna, before he started hooking up with Kate Hudson in 2009.

But their relationship only lasted a few months.

The New Yorker then also dated filmstar Cameron Diaz in 2010.

Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez started dating in 2017 - and just under two years later he proposed to her with a huge emerald-cut diamond ring.

Their destination wedding was postponed because of the pandemic.

But in April 2021, the pair officially called off their engagement.

She told the publication: 'Exposing my daughters to the entire process allows them to understand and respect what I do for a lifestyle.

'We have conversations about all the aspects that go into fitness. We talk about the difference between being skinny and being strong and fit.

'I make it a priority to educate them about all the positive and negative aspects of fitness and encourage them to their insight.'

During their outing, Alex and Kaclyn headed into a designer boutique to peruse a selection of items on offer.

Alex previously split from fitness competitor Kathryne with a source telling Page Six, adding, 'It's all good.'

After the split, A-Rod is now 'having fun and hanging out with his family.'

Earlier this year, he admitted he had 'no regrets' about his former relationship with Jennifer Lopez.

Appearing on the Martha Stewart Podcast the star praised the actress-singer, 52, for her abilities and work ethic when asked about her.

'Here's what I will tell you about Jennifer - and I was telling some of my colleagues here the other day - she's the most talented human being I've ever been around,' the New York City-born star told Stewart, 80.

Alex said that he and Jennifer 'had a great time' in their relationship and 'more importantly, we always put the kids front and centre in everything we do'.

He is father to daughters Natasha, 17, and Ella, 14, with ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis, 49.

Alex was initially linked with with superstar entertainer in 2017, and the one-time couple announced their engagement in March 2019 before calling things off in April 2021.

'We have realised we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so,' the former couple said in a joint statement at the time.

'We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects.

'We wish the best for each other and one another's children. Out of respect for them, the only other comment we have is to say is thank you to everyone who has sent kind words and support.'

<h2>Alex Rodriguez's A-list dating history</h2>

<p>Alex Rodriguez divorced his wife Cynthia Scurtis in 2008 - after six years of marriage.</p>

<p>They have two daughters, named Natasha and Ella, together.</p>

<p>There were then rumors of him being linked to Madonna, before he started hooking up with Kate Hudson in 2009.</p>

<p>But their relationship only lasted a few months.</p>

<p>The New Yorker then also dated filmstar Cameron Diaz in 2010.</p>

<p>Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez started dating in 2017 - and just under two years later he proposed to her with a huge emerald-cut diamond ring.</p>

<p>Their destination wedding was postponed because of the pandemic.</p>

<p>But in April 2021, the pair officially called off their engagement.</p>

<p>She told the publication: 'Exposing my daughters to the entire process allows them to understand and respect what I do for a lifestyle.</p>

<p>'We have conversations about all the aspects that go into fitness. We talk about the difference between being skinny and being strong and fit.</p>

<p>'I make it a priority to educate them about all the positive and negative aspects of fitness and encourage them to their insight.'</p>

<p>During their outing, Alex and Kaclyn headed into a designer boutique to peruse a selection of items on offer.</p>

<p>Alex previously split from fitness competitor Kathryne with a source telling <a href=""https://pagesix.com/2022/09/05/a-rod-is-single-again-splits-with-kathryne-padgett/"">Page Six</a>, adding, 'It's all good.'</p>

<p>After the split, A-Rod is now 'having fun and hanging out with his family.'</p>

<p>Earlier this year, he admitted he had 'no regrets' about his former relationship with Jennifer Lopez<a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11011843/Alex-Rodriguez-says-no-regrets-relationship-Jennifer-Lopez.html"">.</a></p>

<p>Appearing on the <a href=""https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-the-martha-stewart-podcas-98310874"">Martha Stewart Podcast</a> the star praised the actress-singer, 52, for her abilities and work ethic when asked about her.</p>

<p>'Here's what I will tell you about Jennifer - and I was telling some of my colleagues here the other day - she's the most talented human being I've ever been around,' the New York City-born star told Stewart, 80.</p>

<p>Alex said that he and Jennifer 'had a great time' in their relationship and 'more importantly, we always put the kids front and centre in everything we do'.</p>

<p>He is father to daughters Natasha, 17, and Ella, 14, with ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis, 49.</p>

<p>Alex was initially linked with with superstar entertainer in 2017, and the one-time couple <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6791191/Jennifer-Lopez-Alex-Rodriguez-engaged-Power-couple-MASSIVE-diamond-engagement-ring.html"">announced their engagement in March 2019</a> before <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-9474755/Jennifer-Lopez-Alex-Rodriguez-SPLIT.html"">calling things off</a> in April 2021.</p>

<p>'We have realised we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so,' the former couple said in a joint statement at the time.</p>

<p>'We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects.</p>

<p>'We wish the best for each other and one another's children. Out of respect for them, the only other comment we have is to say is thank you to everyone who has sent kind words and support.'</p>

Sterling, one of the major contributors to the Eels' era of dominance in the 1980s, was in attendance at Accor Stadium as Brad Arthur's side attempted to defy the betting odds to win the 2022 premiership.

The 62-year-old was on hand as two youngsters brought the Provan-Summons Trophy onto the field before kick off, but had a very embarrassing moment after the prize was placed on its plinth.

Peter Sterling had an embarrassing moment ahead of the NRL grand final on Sunday

He went to shake one of the youngster's hand, but the mascot was not aware of the gesture and was waving to the crowd. Sterling quickly took the hand and shook it.

The Eels legend was part of the pre-match build up with Channel 9, alongside Phil Gould, and fans were left surprised as the broadcasting veteran was not tasked with doing his popular pre-match rev up moments before kick off.

Instead, it was Melbourne Storm legend Billy Slater who took the microphone in an attempt to ignite television viewers ahead of the game.

However, some fans were far from convinced that Slater can fill Gould's boots.

'Billy Slater doing the Phil Gould pre-match lecture with all the gravitas of a helium balloon,' one fan said.

'Bring back Phil Gould for the last word Cam Smith now Billy Slater rubbish!' a second fan posted on Twitter.

'Urghhh Billy Slater with the ""last word""' a third said with the thumbs down emoji.

'Billy Slater doing a Gus Gould intro, and it's somehow worse,' another said.

<p>The 62-year-old was on hand as two youngsters brought the Provan-Summons Trophy onto the field before kick off, but had a very embarrassing moment after the prize was placed on its plinth.</p>

<p>He went to shake one of the youngster's hand, but the mascot was not aware of the gesture and was waving to the crowd. Sterling quickly took the hand and shook it.</p>

<p>The Eels legend was part of the pre-match build up with Channel 9, alongside Phil Gould, and fans were left surprised as the broadcasting veteran was not tasked with doing his popular pre-match rev up moments before kick off.</p>

<p>Instead, it was Melbourne Storm legend Billy Slater who took the microphone in an attempt to ignite television viewers ahead of the game.</p>

<p>However, some fans were far from convinced that Slater can fill Gould's boots.</p>

<p>'Billy Slater doing the Phil Gould pre-match lecture with all the gravitas of a helium balloon,' one fan said.</p>

<p>'Bring back Phil Gould for the last word Cam Smith now Billy Slater rubbish!' a second fan posted on Twitter.</p>

"If the Tories don't act on these uncanny echoes from the 1970s, they're doomed - and so is Britain, writes DOMINIC SANDBROOK",https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-11107387/DOMINIC-SANDBROOK-Tories-dont-act-uncanny-echoes-1970s-theyre-doomed.html#comments,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-11107387/DOMINIC-SANDBROOK-Tories-dont-act-uncanny-echoes-1970s-theyre-doomed.html,2022-08-12T22:22:12+01:00,"There’s less than a month left until we know the name of Britain’s next prime minister.

And now the candidates’ minds must be turning to that long-anticipated moment when the winner will walk through the famous black door and up the staircase, past the framed photographs of their 55 predecessors.

In truth, many of those names — the Duke of Grafton, Viscount Goderich, the Earl of Shelburne — are now entirely forgotten. But when our new prime minister reaches the pictures from the 1970s, he or she should pause for thought.

Here, for example, is Edward Heath, whose premiership was destroyed by an energy crisis, surging prices and industrial unrest. Here is Harold Wilson, apparently powerless to stop inflation. Here is James Callaghan, felled by public anger at falling living standards and crippling strikes.

And here, too, is Margaret Thatcher, who ruthlessly profited from her predecessors’ failures, winning a thumping victory in 1979 with a promise to slash inflation, lighten the tax burden, end the strikes and revive people’s faith in Britain itself.

For both Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak, Mrs Thatcher represents an ideological lodestar. Mr Sunak has explicitly promised to ‘govern as a Thatcherite’, though the polls suggest he may not be given the chance.

Miss Truss, meanwhile, has consciously modelled herself on the Iron Lady, even copying the outfit from her final campaign broadcast in 1979.

Why Margaret Thatcher? There’s an obvious reason: she won three elections and, even years after her death, remains very popular with the Tory rank and file.

But perhaps there’s a further reason. The problems Mrs Thatcher promised to address in the late 1970s — high inflation, surging oil prices, a stagnant economy and a sclerotic, struggling state — are remarkably similar to those we confront today.

History never repeats itself precisely, of course, even if the current heatwave feels uncannily reminiscent of the record-breaking summer of 1976, complete with drought warnings, water shortages and hosepipe bans.

But when you look at today’s headlines, from the rocketing prices in the supermarkets to this weekend’s railway strike, it’s hard to miss the parallels with the age of Slade, Space Hoppers and the Sex Pistols.

Perhaps the most obvious example is the spectacle of an energy crisis driven by a foreign war, brutally laying bare Britain’s dependence on supplies from abroad.

Today it’s Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Back then it was the Arab nations’ stunning surprise attack on Israel in October 1973, which saw the Opec oil cartel raise prices by 17 per cent to punish the West for backing the Israelis.

In both cases, experts had warned for years that Britain had become dangerously reliant on overseas suppliers and had neglected to maintain its own energy security. But in both cases, nobody listened until it was too late.

Then, as now, the consequences for ordinary families could scarcely have been more dramatic.

Facing the prospect of massive winter power cuts, Edward Heath instructed people to lower their thermostats to a maximum of 17c, and street lights were dimmed to half-strength.

But when the miners, claiming that their wages had been eroded by surging inflation, went on strike for higher pay, Heath went even further, ordering Britain’s shops, offices and factories to move to a three-day working week.

As older readers will remember, Heath paid a heavy price for his inability to resolve the crisis. When he called an election in February 1974 to decide ‘who governs’ — Downing Street or the unions — the result was a hung parliament, and he was out on his ear.

Although there’s a grim lesson there for the next Tory leader, the story of the early 1970s is also a reminder of what’s changed.

Today’s rail strikes may be intensely infuriating. But the hard Leftists behind them aren’t remotely as powerful as their predecessors were in the Heath years, when the general secretaries were forever trooping into Downing Street for the proverbial beer and sandwiches with the PM.

Of course that may change, especially if soaring household and utility bills provoke further pay demands from other unions. But just as in the mid-1970s, the really corrosive problem is inflation. In this respect, I worry that few Tory politicians — many of whom are far too young to recall life back then — grasp how dangerous the situation is.

When I wrote about the perils of inflation in the Daily Mail last autumn, I noted that it was currently 3 per cent and likely to hit 4 per cent by the end of 2021. But how quickly things change! Today, the latest projections suggest that it will peak at an agonising 13 per cent, and may go even higher, if there are further shocks overseas.

That won’t be surprising to anybody who remembers the 1970s: an object lesson in how, when inflation gets going, it’s appallingly difficult to stop.

Prices had been rising since the start of the decade, with an annual rate of 6 per cent in 1970, 7 per cent in 1972 and 9 per cent in 1973. Then, with the outbreak of war in the Middle East, they really went through the roof.

For ordinary British families, the results were devastating.

In just 12 months, the price of electricity went up by 66 per cent, tinned soup by 54 per cent, orange squash by 51 per cent and coal by 47 per cent. The price of carrots went up by 137 per cent; sugar, incredibly, by 184 per cent.

Why wasn’t there mass unrest? The answer is that from the spring of 1974, Harold Wilson’s Labour government simply handed out gigantic public-sector pay deals, with power workers winning 31 per cent, civil servants 32 per cent and doctors 35 per cent.

As a result, inflation became endemic, hitting a post-war record of 27 per cent in August 1975. The costs fell most heavily on people who could ill afford it: the poorest, the elderly, those living alone — their incomes stagnant as prices rocketed. As Britain’s GDP fell two years in a row, living standards sank with it. By December 1977, the average couple took home less money, in real terms, than they had four years earlier.

What should really alarm our incoming prime minister is that inflation is not merely an economic issue. It’s a moral issue, eroding thrift and breaking the unwritten contract between savers and the state. And as the 1970s proved, it’s politically poisonous, driving a wedge between savers and borrowers, old and young, those represented by trade unions and those dependent on fixed incomes.

As so often with a deep-seated disease, the cure was almost as painful as the symptoms. For although Thatcher wrung it out of the system eventually, she only did it by applying the most stringent medicine, with interest rates peaking at an excruciating 17 per cent at the end of 1979. A repeat performance today wouldn’t just blow the housing market to pieces. It would lead to a tidal wave of repossessions and see thousands of families driven into destitution.

Of course there’s no need to assume the worst. Even after the latest rise, today’s Bank of England interest rate is just 1.75 per cent.

But there’s another parallel which should trouble us — namely, the sense of inaction and exhaustion hanging over Westminster this summer, from Keir Starmer’s waxwork act to the intellectual vacuum at the top of the Tory Party.

Back in 1975, with prices soaring week by week, many observers were shocked at Westminster’s failure to take decisive action. ‘Why Are We Waiting?’ thundered one headline. ‘Isn’t it obvious that the Government MUST act against inflation? That we CAN’T go on like this?’

But as Harold Wilson’s policy chief, Bernard Donoughue, wrote in his diary, they seemed to have ‘no more interest, no more ideas, no appetite for power’. There was, he thought, an inevitable sense of ‘erosion and final decline’.

That feels very familiar today. From inflation to housing, energy to productivity, neither Left nor Right seems to have any sense of vision or drive, let alone the determination to bring lasting change.

In an unsparing essay for this week’s Spectator magazine, the writer John Oxley eviscerates the Conservative Party, his own natural home, for its dearth of new ideas.

‘Rather than principles or goals,’ he writes, ‘the Tory Party today lives for day-to-day reactions to the things that catch its eye.’

All too often it seems ‘listless, incapable and slightly baffled by the power it holds’.

We can all think of examples. The worsening housing crisis, with many young couples unable to afford a home of their own, is particularly glaring.

In this, too, there is a 1970s parallel. By the end of the decade, many had become frustrated at Labour’s refusal to let them buy their rented council houses. And when Mrs Thatcher promised them the right to buy, young voters poured into the Tory ranks.

Indeed, first-time voters were some of her most enthusiastic supporters in 1979 — a stark contrast with the electoral demography today.

The message on her posters read starkly: ‘Labour Isn’t Working.’ And that sense of dysfunction, above all, is the most striking parallel between then and now.

‘Almost nothing seems to be working in Britain,’ read the headline of a recent doom-laden essay in the Economist.

Perhaps that’s a bit overstated. As Stephen Glover wrote this week in the Mail, there are plenty of things that work well, and we tend to forget that other European countries are facing the same challenges (and some have even higher inflation rates, believe it or not).

But there is, I think, a palpable sense that things in Britain have become desperately stretched. Nine out of ten NHS dental practices, for example, are no longer accepting new adult patients.

Even more glaringly, Thursday’s NHS figures showed that almost 1,000 patients are having to wait at least 12 hours in A&E every day — the worst performance on record. And heart attack and stroke victims have to wait, on average, 59 minutes — which could mean the difference between life and death.

Perhaps it’s no wonder, then, that in some quarters there seems to be an existential loss of faith in Britain itself. As in the 1970s, younger voters would be forgiven for wondering if our best days are behind us, and whether they’ll ever have the same opportunities as their parents.

All in all, then, Britain’s 56th prime minister will face an in-tray overflowing with challenges.

So what next?

Well, the 1970s offer two possible scenarios. In the first, a tired, threadbare, divided Tory government will stagger to inevitable defeat in 2024, just as Jim Callaghan’s Labour administration did in 1979.

Soaring food prices and crippling energy bills will take a punishing toll on their electoral support. Few ruling parties prosper in hard times, and as a result, the new PM will go down in history as little more than an afterthought.

But there’s another, more optimistic scenario. The two candidates talk of channelling Margaret Thatcher. The lesson of her time in office is that with dynamism, decisiveness, vision and clarity, a truly reforming Tory government can push through painful changes, and still be rewarded for it.

Can they do it, though? Can they banish the torpor and heal the divisions? Do they have a genuine vision for public sector reform and coherent plans to help people weather the inflationary tempest?

Can they slash waiting times and build new homes? And perhaps above all, can they give ordinary men and women reasons to be proud of Britain and cheerful about the prospects ahead?

We’ll soon find out. But the stakes could hardly be higher — not just for the new PM, or even for the Tory Party, but for Britain itself.","<article>

<p>In an unsparing essay for this week’s Spectator magazine, the writer John Oxley eviscerates the Conservative Party, his own natural home, for its dearth of new ideas.</p>

<p>‘Rather than principles or goals,’ he writes, ‘the Tory Party today lives for day-to-day reactions to the things that catch its eye.’</p>

<p>All too often it seems ‘listless, incapable and slightly baffled by the power it holds’.</p>

<p>We can all think of examples. The worsening housing crisis, with many young couples unable to afford a home of their own, is particularly glaring.</p>

<p>In this, too, there is a 1970s parallel. By the end of the decade, many had become frustrated at Labour’s refusal to let them buy their rented council houses. And when Mrs Thatcher promised them the right to buy, young voters poured into the Tory ranks.</p>

<p>Indeed, first-time voters were some of her most enthusiastic supporters in 1979 — a stark contrast with the electoral demography today.</p>

<p>The message on her posters read starkly: ‘Labour Isn’t Working.’ And that sense of dysfunction, above all, is the most striking parallel between then and now.</p>

<p>‘Almost nothing seems to be working in Britain,’ read the headline of a recent doom-laden essay in the Economist.</p>

<p>Perhaps that’s a bit overstated. As Stephen Glover wrote this week in the Mail, there are plenty of things that work well, and we tend to forget that other European countries are facing the same challenges (and some have even higher inflation rates, believe it or not).</p>

<p>But there is, I think, a palpable sense that things in Britain have become desperately stretched. Nine out of ten NHS dental practices, for example, are no longer accepting new adult patients.</p>

<p>Even more glaringly, Thursday’s NHS figures showed that almost 1,000 patients are having to wait at least 12 hours in A&amp;E every day — the worst performance on record. And heart attack and stroke victims have to wait, on average, 59 minutes — which could mean the difference between life and death.</p>

<p>Perhaps it’s no wonder, then, that in some quarters there seems to be an existential loss of faith in Britain itself. As in the 1970s, younger voters would be forgiven for wondering if our best days are behind us, and whether they’ll ever have the same opportunities as their parents.</p>

<p>All in all, then, Britain’s 56th prime minister will face an in-tray overflowing with challenges.</p>

<p>So what next?</p>

<p>Well, the 1970s offer two possible scenarios. In the first, a tired, threadbare, divided Tory government will stagger to inevitable defeat in 2024, just as Jim Callaghan’s Labour administration did in 1979.</p>

<p>Soaring food prices and crippling energy bills will take a punishing toll on their electoral support. Few ruling parties prosper in hard times, and as a result, the new PM will go down in history as little more than an afterthought.</p>

<p>But there’s another, more optimistic scenario. The two candidates talk of channelling Margaret Thatcher. The lesson of her time in office is that with dynamism, decisiveness, vision and clarity, a truly reforming Tory government can push through painful changes, and still be rewarded for it.</p>

<p>Can they do it, though? Can they banish the torpor and heal the divisions? Do they have a genuine vision for public sector reform and coherent plans to help people weather the inflationary tempest?</p>

<p>Can they slash waiting times and build new homes? And perhaps above all, can they give ordinary men and women reasons to be proud of Britain and cheerful about the prospects ahead?</p>

<p>We’ll soon find out. But the stakes could hardly be higher — not just for the new PM, or even for the Tory Party, but for Britain itself.</p>

"The one lesson I've learned from life: Actress Charlie Brooks, 41, on how drink exacerbates stress",https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11638657/The-one-lesson-Ive-learned-life-Actress-Charlie-Brooks-41-drink-exacerbates-stress.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11638657/The-one-lesson-Ive-learned-life-Actress-Charlie-Brooks-41-drink-exacerbates-stress.html,2023-01-16T00:07:49+00:00,"Charlie Brooks, 41, is best known for playing Janine in EastEnders and winning I’m a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! in 2012. She lives in Surrey, and has a daughter, Kiki, 18.

Three years ago, I began the biggest adventure of all, one that has impacted my life in so many positive ways: saying goodbye to alcohol.

I was programmed to think that alcohol was part of my life and that was the person I was. But, actually, it doesn’t relieve stress, it sets fire to it.

Looking back, I felt like my life was standing still. I was lonely, waiting for the phone to ring. As an actor, you spend a lot of time unemployed.

I’ve loved partying my whole life, but if I’m honest with myself, like a relationship that has come to an end, that lifestyle just wasn’t serving me.

So in the past few years, I’ve been getting to know myself and my fears in the most intimate way.

By choosing to stop drinking, I have learnt to sit with my feelings, not run away from them. I have leaned in to everything that scares me — making big career choices and starting my business, iampro, an online drama school that aims to make the arts accessible.

I am a confident woman who can be riddled with self-doubt. But instead of trying to manage fear by distracting myself — that is, having a drink — now I move towards it. I see it as an opportunity to be brave.

My daughter goes to university this year. I’m so proud of her. She’s driven and fiercely independent.

But the brutal rejection you experience when they’re looking for their own identity can be painful. It’s hard not to take things personally because you’ve spent your life nurturing and loving this little human.

We’re out the other side now. But I’m glad I’ve been completely present for that — not being unable to pick her up because I’ve had a couple of glasses of wine, or embarrassing her by dancing round the kitchen with my friends.

Life is richer — it’s in colour now, and that’s amazing. The greatest thing I know is that I don’t know anything at all. It feels like a massive comfort.","<article>

Remote work is costing Manhattan $12.4 BILLION a year as workers spend Mondays and Fridays away from the office - and spend less on meals and entertainment near their offices,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11746085/Remote-work-costing-Manhattan-12-4-BILLION-year.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11746085/Remote-work-costing-Manhattan-12-4-BILLION-year.html,2023-02-13T21:31:50+00:00,"Remote work is costing New York City $12.4billion per year as employees spend about 30 percent fewer days in their Manhattan offices than they did before the pandemic.

That staggering number largely comes from Manhattan employees who opt to stay home not spending money on food and entertainment at businesses around their offices, amounting to thousands of dollars per-person which would have previously been pumped into local economies going unspent.

Those lost sales are also depriving the city of valuable tax dollars, leading to crises in NYC's budget that has infrastructure like the transit system - also struggling from lost commuter fares - in dire jeopardy.

Though the problem is present in cities across the United States, the situation is particularly pronounced in New York City, which has seen daily sales on certain days as much as ten percent lower than in other cities, according to Bloomberg.

Even as some offices have seen employees return in stronger numbers Tuesday through Thursday, in Manhattan commuters remains sparse on Mondays and Fridays, leading to a staggeringly low percentage of sales on those days as compared to 2019.

In New York City, work from home has led to workers spending $4,661 less per-year on average on food, shopping, and entertainment in their offices' neighborhoods.

Those numbers are far higher per employee at major cities across the country, including Chicago, where workers are spending $2,387 less per-year, and $3,040 in San Francisco.

While general spending has gone up across the country from 2019, on Mondays and Fridays in Manhattan remain paltry compared to the rest of the country.

Spending in the US on Mondays has gone up nearly 25 percent since 2019, but in Manhattan it is up just two percent. On Fridays across the US spending is also up just under 25 percent, but in Manhattan it is up only 11 percent, according to Bloomberg.

Those numbers are stronger in New York City outside of Manhattan. While spending on Mondays is up just 2 percent in Manhattan, the Bronx has seen a 28 percent increase, Queens has seen a 21 percent increase, and Brooklyn is up by 18 percent. And on Fridays, greater New York City has seen a 20 percent increase in spending.

Even with stronger figures for the outer boroughs, the city on the whole suffers from the significant loss in tax revenue from Manhattan.

'If less income tax is being paid in New York City,' Comptroller Brad Lander told Bloomberg, 'then it's hard to figure out how to capture enough value to maintain the subways and invest in the schools and keep the city safe and clean and all the things that really matter.'

Last year, NYC Mayor Eric Adams mandated all city workers return to the office for five-day work weeks, and plead with the rest of the city to do the same.

'It's time,' he said last year. 'New York City can't run from home.'

On average, by the end of 2022 offices attendance across New York City had only reached 43 percent of its level before the pandemic struck.

Tuesdays saw some of the highest levels of occupancy during the week at 51 percent of pre-pandemic levels, while Fridays saw a drop-off to 23 percent.

Bloomberg found that across eight of Manhattan's most prominent office buildings, foot traffic was down 45 percent from pre-pandemic levels on Mondays, and 52 percent on Mondays.

With those still diminished numbers, experts say real estate value could drop up to 40 percent, costing about $5billion in lost taxes. That amounts to about percent of the city's annual budget.

Adding to those troubles is subway ridership, which has only reached 64 percent of its pre-pandemic levels. That loss is expected to translate to $2billion per year in fare losses through 2026.

'That's a big hole that will need to be plugged with new taxes, lower spending,' Professor Stijn Van Nieuwerburgh of Columbia University told Bloomberg.","<article>

The $29.5 million island mansion that Twitter and Netflix built: Venture capitalist puts dream island mansion he spent five years building on the market with its breathtaking views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Mount Tamalpais,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8534061/The-29-5-million-island-mansion-Twitter-Netflix-built.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8534061/The-29-5-million-island-mansion-Twitter-Netflix-built.html,2020-07-17T16:14:20+01:00,"A venture capitalist who made his money through savvy investments in Twitter and Netflix has put his dream island mansion he spent five years building on the market for $29.5 million.

Todd Chaffee has listed for sale the one-of-a-kind property nestled in the hills on the elite Belvedere Island just outside San Francisco, complete with its breathtaking views taking in the Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Tamalpais and astonishing sunsets as far as the eye can see.

Described as an architectural masterpiece, the property is modeled around indoor-outdoor living, with an interior courtyard for when the wind picks up, a fire pit off the luxury living room and huge decks off almost every room.

A venture capitalist who made his money through savvy investments in Twitter and Netflix has put his dream island mansion (pictured one road up from the water) he spent five years building on the market for $29.5 million

Todd Chaffee has listed for sale the one-of-a-kind property nestled in the hills on the elite Belvedere Island just outside San Francisco, complete with its breathtaking views looking out across the water

The infinity pool with views across the water offers the perfect escape at the end of the day

Almost every room boasts walls of glass showcasing panoramic views of the City, the Golden Gate Bridge, Richardson Bay, Sausalito, Mill Valley, and Mount Tamalpais

'The magic of Belvedere Island is that it's an unbelievable place and a world-class location,' Chaffee told Bloomberg.

'The luxury of it is I can pop to the city for meetings, pop up to wine country, or I'm two minutes away from going sailing.'

While anyone looking to purchase the sprawling mansion will also need deep pockets, it's easy to see why the coveted spot was one investment Chaffee couldn't turn down.

Belvedere Island itself is just less than one square mile around and is home to just 2,000 residents.

The 'special' property is uniquely built into the island's hillside and is within a stone's throw of the hustle and bustle of downtown San Francisco, the enchanting downtown Tiburon and the sweeping vineyards of the Northern California wine country.

The advisory partner at Institutional Venture Partners (IVP), who has led investments in Twitter, Netflix, and Kayak, said he chose the lot because he wanted to be close to the water after having lived in and loved the wealthy community since first setting up home there back in 2000.

The design incorporates several materials including stone, reclaimed oak, leather, bronze, and glass to perfection to create the sleek, modern aesthetic that runs through the property

The 800 square foot guest house with another bedroom and bath offers visitors their own privacy and space away from the main house

The mansion boasts two studies (one above) - perfect for the shift to home working amid the pandemic

The sprawling master bedroom leads out onto a huge deck where homeowners can sunbathe or relax at the end of the day

The future owners can be treated to views of the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance while kicking back on the deck

'Our first place was on the lagoon, a super cool little waterway within the island. Our second house was on the very top of the island, but then we wanted to be closer to the water, and this lot came up,' he told Bloomberg. 'I was like, I'm grabbing it.'

It seems perfection takes time, with award-winning architect Joshua Aidlin of Aidlin Darling Design and Blasen Landscape Architecture spending five years building the 7,500-square-foot home and designing the grounds of the 0.6-acre lot.

Completed in 2015, the property boasts formal living and dining spaces, an expansive water view terrace, an art studio office, and a luxurious media room.

The hot tub and infinity pool are perfect for relaxing in while watching the sun go down over the city

The inviting entrance to the property is in keeping with the luxury design and also features a two-car garage and a carport

The media room is a feat of engineering with a huge 10-foot-tall, 4-foot wide leather-and-metal door integrated into the wall between it another living area, offering a perfect escape from other parts of the home

An olive tree-lined courtyard welcomes dwellers home to the property after a hard day at work in Silicon Valley where they can then relax in the meticulously landscaped grounds and manicured gardens.

The inviting entrance to the property is also in keeping with the luxury design and features a two-car garage and a carport.

Once home, the infinity pool and hot tub with views of the breathtaking sunsets across the water offer the perfect escape at the end of the day.

Or for those home working amid the pandemic, there's the option of two studies inside the mansion, making that move from office to pool even easier.

All the furniture is also custom-built to match the design of the home and can be the proud new owner's too

Breathtaking sunsets are a big draw for the island which is said to be a safe, wealthy community

The sun sets behind the hills in the distance.'The magic of Belvedere Island is that it's an unbelievable place and a world-class location,' Chaffee told Bloomberg

Then there's the panoramic views of the City, the Golden Gate Bridge, Richardson Bay, Sausalito, Mill Valley, and Mount Tamalpais, with almost every room boasting walls of glass showcasing the spectacular scenes.

The future homeowner can enjoy a series of indoor-outdoor spaces, with an interior courtyard on the other side of the property to shelter from the wind and meaning that whatever the weather, there's always the option to entertain.

There's no shortage of space inside the property too.

The main house alone has five bedrooms and six baths, with another bedroom and bath in an 800 square foot guest house offering visitors their own privacy and space.

'The luxury of it is I can pop to the city for meetings, pop up to wine country, or I'm two minutes away from going sailing,' said Chaffee

The property is described as an architectural masterpiece on its listing with Sotheby's

The perfect spot to relax and kick back during California's sunny season

The outdoor-indoor living means dwellers can seamlessly enjoy the property and its surroundings come rain or shine

Then there's the media room which is a feat of engineering with a huge 10-foot-tall, 4-foot wide leather-and-metal door integrated into the wall between it another living area, offering a perfect escape from other parts of the home.

The design throughout the sprawling mansion incorporates several materials including stone, reclaimed oak, leather, bronze, and glass to perfection to create the sleek, modern aesthetic that runs through the property.

All the furniture is also custom-built to match the design of the home and can be the proud new owner's too.

It's little wonder Chaffee and his family are going to miss their home but the venture capitalist told Bloomberg they are uprooting to Southern California.

The property is listed with the Sarkissian/Bullock Team of Golden Gate Sotheby’s International Realty and has an asking price of $29.5 million.

With construction, landscaping and the land setting him back about $25 million, Chaffee should be in for a tidy profit.","<article>

<p>Todd Chaffee has listed for sale the one-of-a-kind property nestled in the hills on the elite Belvedere Island just outside San Francisco, complete with its breathtaking views taking in the Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Tamalpais and astonishing sunsets as far as the eye can see.</p>

<p>Described as an architectural masterpiece, the property is modeled around indoor-outdoor living, with an interior courtyard for when the wind picks up, a fire pit off the luxury living room and huge decks off almost every room.</p>

<p>'The luxury of it is I can pop to the city for meetings, pop up to wine country, or I'm two minutes away from going sailing.'</p>

<p>While anyone looking to purchase the sprawling mansion will also need deep pockets, it's easy to see why the coveted spot was one investment Chaffee couldn't turn down.</p>

<p>Belvedere Island itself is just less than one square mile around and is home to just 2,000 residents.</p>

<p>The 'special' property is uniquely built into the island's hillside and is within a stone's throw of the hustle and bustle of downtown San Francisco, the enchanting downtown Tiburon and the sweeping vineyards of the Northern California wine country.</p>

<p>The advisory partner at Institutional Venture Partners (IVP), who has led investments in Twitter, Netflix, and Kayak, said he chose the lot because he wanted to be close to the water after having lived in and loved the wealthy community since first setting up home there back in 2000.</p>

<p>It seems perfection takes time, with award-winning architect Joshua Aidlin of Aidlin Darling Design and Blasen Landscape Architecture spending five years building the 7,500-square-foot home and designing the grounds of the 0.6-acre lot.</p>

'All my thoughts want to come out but they get stuck!' Alex Scott reveals she 'couldn't speak' for years due to childhood speech impediment which she still suffers from,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11298965/Alex-Scott-reveals-speak-years-childhood-speech-impediment.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11298965/Alex-Scott-reveals-speak-years-childhood-speech-impediment.html,2022-10-10T12:37:14+01:00,"Alex Scott has revealed she 'couldn't speak' for years during her childhood years because of a speech impediment, which she claims to still suffer from.

The presenter, 37, went on to explain she sometimes finds it difficult to say certain words, which she will 'change' for synonyms, and has been supported by her on-air colleagues including Dan Walker and Clare Balding.

In her new memoir, How (Not) To Be Strong, she detailed the 'lengths' she went to in order to 'hide' her impediment and memorise scripts.

Before opening up with those around her, Alex 'found herself doing everything she could to keep it a secret', she admitted, due to not wanting people to pity her.

She wrote: 'What you might spot is that my brain works faster than my mouth; I have all these thoughts that want to come spilling out but they get stuck, literally stuck.

'If you're watching TV closely when this happens, you might see my eyes widen - that's the point when the words are jammed. It takes me right back to those early years of having to learn where sounds come from again,' the former footballer added of her childhood speech therapy.

The pundit concluded: 'However, on TV I don't have time to repeat words out loud to myself, so I pivot to either rewording what I'm saying or simplifying my thoughts.'

Alex said she underwent surgery as a child after doctors noticed she had trouble with her ears and adenoids, which are small lumps of tissue at the back of the nose.

The broadcaster, who also suffers from dyslexia, confessed others often weren't able to understand her when she spoke as a child, despite her sentences making perfect sense in her own head.

It comes after Alex fired back at her father Tony for disputing her claims about how he abused her as a child - which she has revealed in her new memoir.

In a recent interview, Tony dismissed her claims that he bullied and abused her during a traumatic childhood, insisting that he was strict - but not violent.

Following her father's comments, Alex told the BBC: 'I almost feel angry at myself that I'm allowing him to hurt me again by those claims.'

The ex-England footballer said she hoped to 'free her mother' by writing about her father's abusive behaviour during her turbulent childhood.

Addressing his denial, Alex said she refuses to let her dad win anymore after witnessing how his rebuttal affected her mother, Carol McKee.

Speaking to Radio 4's Emma Barnett, she said: 'That story from him coming out yesterday takes her back to a place...

'Hearing the pain and the terror again in her voice last night - that's why I don't know what I can do. But I'm not going to allow him to win no more.

'This book, the reason was to get some peace. And I suppose when you are in peace it gives you a new position of power and that's maybe why he's trying to (respond) right now.'

Tony rebuffed claims he was 'violent' towards his family during the interview and insisted he 'didn't know why Alex was saying these things.'

He said: 'Perhaps she is judging me by today's standards, I don't know. Parents were a lot tougher back then. But I was never violent, that's just not me. I never beat Alex or anyone else in the family or did anything like that.'

Alex hit back: 'I actually don't care what happened to me. If you are saying being beaten with a belt is just being strict - I can take that, I really don't care about me.'

'What I do care is about my mum and the fear and terror that she had to live in and the fact I was never able to help her in that, but what I can do is help her now by speaking the truth. And everything I wrote in that book, I stand by it. It is the truth.'

Alex has claimed that Tony's words 'lit a new fire in her' and she wants to fight to do all she can to help women in similar positions and those who have similar feelings to herself or her mother.

In her new memoir, the BBC football pundit described her father as a 'controlling violent drunk' who was 'stupidly cruel' and that she and her brother would frequently hear him beating their mother - with one incident so violent that she believed that she had died.

On one occasion she recalled how he beat them and made them throw their toys away insisting that life under him has left her so traumatised that to this day she is unable to hug her mother or brother Ronnie.

Alex was comforted by Holly Willoughby after breaking down in tears on ITV 's This Morning as she spoke about life under her father prior to him walking out on her mother and leaving the family home in east London when she was seven.

But speaking exclusively to MailOnline, Tony, 63, vehemently denied the allegations and said he could not understand why Alex is portraying him in this way.

He cried: 'I have no idea why she's saying all this stuff. I was raised in a strict but loving Jamaican family and Alex should know what they are like. I taught her discipline, I did a lot to help her.

'Perhaps she is judging me by today's standards, I don't know. Parents were a lot tougher back then. But I was never violent, that's just not me. I never beat Alex or anyone else in the family or did anything like that.'

Appearing on This Morning, the former Lioness who played for Arsenal, admitted that discussing her traumatic past in interviews to promote her memoir 'How (Not) to Be Strong' was the 'hardest part.'

She revealed that, despite writing about her distressing formative years in the book, she claimed to not have spoken it out loud - and began crying when Phillip Schofield read a segment promoting his co-host Holly to rush over and give her a big cuddle.

Alex wrote: 'When my dad was sober he was a charming guy, but the moment drink was involved that would change. Me, my mum and brother have never spoken about it.'

When Schofield asked Alex whether it was 'difficult to write', she took a moment to regain her composure while filling up with tears.

She said while bawling: 'The hardest part is, I didn't write that chapter to shame my dad. I wanted my mum to be free.'

Mr Scott, who as one of six siblings raised in east London insisted that he only attempted to instil a sense of discipline in Alex, which he maintained has helped her in her career.

He protested: 'I'm old school Jamaican, that's all. Alex's portrayal of me is completely wrong. But it's just one of those things.'

He revealed that Alex messaged him two weeks ago to tell him that she was about to embark on a round of media interviews to accompany the launch of her new memoir.

He added: 'When Alex messaged me, she said that stuff was going to come out but wrote that: 'I will always love you, that's just how you are, I accept that.'

'She said that she wanted to meet me, but I couldn't because I was out of the country. I've seen the media coverage and don't understand why Alex has said all these things about me.'

Mr Scott insisted that he wanted to 'prove his case' that he is not the violent, drunken man he is being portrayed as.

He added: 'A lot of things went on between me and Alex's mum, it's a long story. I'm collating a lot of stuff that will prove my case.'

Alex's brother Ronnie Scott today insisted that their father was violent towards their mother, Carol McKee.

Speaking at Alex's family home in east London, Ronnie, 39, said: 'Alex is telling the truth.'

During an interview last week with Steven Bartlett on The Diary of a CEO podcast Alex said she has not spoken to her father in person for five years after they attend her grandmother's funeral.

She revealed that her last contact with Mr Scott came two years later when she was competing on Strictly Come Dancing and had made it through to Blackpool week and he asked her for some tickets.

But Mr Scott insisted: 'I've not seen her for several years, but I have had messages from her over that time. It's not true that there's been no contact between us since I contacted her about Strictly Come Dancing.

'As I've told you, she messaged me two weeks ago and wanted to see me.'

In another interview, Alex said she and Ronnie were forced to throw their toys away by Mr Scott who then beat them after she left a green space beside a tower block where they lived.

Mr Scott admitted: 'Yes, I did make them throw their toys away, but I didn't beat them. I bought those toys with my money. The kids were behaving badly and that was their punishment. What's wrong with that?'

In her memoir Alex lifts the lid for the first time on her relationship with Kelly Smith, 43 who played alongside her for both England and Arsenal.

During a television interview, she explained why she wrote about it, explaining that 'parts of the relationship affected her throughout her life' and she needed to 'break the cycle.'

Mr Scott said: 'I knew about Alex's sexuality all along, well before she was even with Kelly Smith. Everyone in the family knew about it.'

Recalling Alex's career, he said: 'I've always been proud of her. I've even gone to matches to see her play. I don't even like football but the only team that I've ever supported is Arsenal's Women's Team.'

Following the adverse publicity he has received since Alex's interviews and her memoir, Mr Scott said that he was considering meeting her to discuss what she said.

He added: 'I will speak to her but it's something that I need to think about. I've got a lot of other things on at the moment that are more important. At the end of the day, what's come out about me is just one of those things but there's more to tell to this story and one day, I want the full truth to come out.'

For the past 15 years, Mr Scott has been living in the Lake District where he works as a guide for a travel company taking tourists from across the world around the region.

He said: 'Look at the reviews of me by people I've taken on tour. Does that strike you as a violent, horrible man? I live a great, peaceful life. I don't miss London at all, and it puzzles me to think why Alex is saying all these things about me.'

It comes after Alex broke down in tears as she recalled her troubled childhood growing up with an abusive and violent father during an episode of This Morning.

Alex admitted that discussing her traumatic past in interviews to promote her memoir How (Not) to Be Strong was the 'hardest part.

Despite writing about her distressing formative years in the book, she claimed to not have spoken it out loud - and began crying when Phillip Schofield read a segment.

Holly rushed over to give her a hug in a bid to comfort her as she broke down.

She had written: 'When my dad was sober he was a charming guy, but the moment drink was involved that would change. Me, my mum and brother have never spoken about it.'

When the former children's presenter asked Alex whether it was 'difficult to write', she took a moment to regain her composure while filling up with tears.

She said while bawling: 'The hardest part is, I didn't write that chapter to shame my dad. I wanted my mum to be free.

'I want her to believe she's a role model and move forward. I write in the book she still thinks she's a coward. She's anything but.'

Alex recently confessed that before her parents separated when she was seven years old, both she and her brother would frequently hear their father beating their mother - with one incident so violent that she believed her mother had died.

Such was the level of control that her father inflicted that Alex was banned from showing any kind of affection towards her family members, admitting that to this day the trauma has stopped her from being able to hug her mother Carol or brother Ronnie.

Speaking to Steven Bartlett on The Diary of a CEO podcast, Alex admitted they would 'live in fear' of upsetting their father Tony and having to deal with the consequences.

Recalling the 'hardest night' she experienced, Alex remembered the day of her sixth birthday party when Carol had declined to fetch Tony a drink.

Alex confessed: 'As soon as everybody leaves that night he doesn't forget... that was the hardest night that one... My mum is trying to survive for her kids and im in a room listening to everything go on and just hoping she's alive

'I heard everything. I heard her trying to run. I just want to hug my mum but I can't. we weren't allowed to show love.

'That's the control. If we spoke back or didn't obey orders, didn't show you were strong - something would happen to me or my brother.'

Speaking about the long-term impact, she continued: 'To this day I can't hug my mum. I don't think I've ever hugged my brother because of that environment.'

Speaking about her coping mechanisms as a child, Alex added: 'The football cage was a safe space. I felt fun, I felt free and at home I was locked in, it was an environment where it was very much controlled.

'I wanted to love my dad so much, I was daddy's little girl, but he had this dark side and that's a side we saw a lot of growing up.

'Drink helped it out come out a lot more, you could see him turn, that's how he took it out on all of us, more so my mum.

'From a baby I could feel it, the environment we're in. If you step out of line you know what's going to happen and you don't want that to happen...

'What my mum would go through, the terror, the helplessness that you can't do anything, you're just living in fear.'

Asked if she ever feared being at home, Alex reasoned: 'I wanted to go home to protect my mum, to put a shield around her, to be strong for her even though she was doing the same for me and my brother.

'It's easy not to talk about it, every single day you see your mum walking on eggshells, she's scared to have a voice, say something, because she knows what she's going to go through.'

Alex revealed that when her parents separated her father forced her and her brother to choose which parent they wanted to live with on the spot.

She confessed: 'I feel sad thinking about him, even to this day... then my dad just goes, leaves with everything, furniture, everything.

'I'm so lucky I had football. I had that out, something to focus on an environment that gave me structure.

'My mum puts a lot of blame on herself. I felt guilty as I went to therapy and learnt to go away and talk, but it took my mum back to a place that hurt her.'

After bottling up her feelings for so long Alex used the tools she learned in therapy to help her move forward and heal from her experience and gave her the strength to recount the abuse in her autobiography, How (Not) To Be Strong.

She explained: 'I've hidden it up until now but I'm older, I'm wiser and I don't want the heaviness of it anymore. I wrote my book hoping it frees my mum and she can move forward from it all.

'She read it and she loved it. I've gone through a lot of stuff that she didn't know about. I didn't want her to panic about me. She's learnt a lot about me, my emotions.

'She didn't know that as a child I didn't sleep because I was listening to see if she would move in the morning.

'I was shutting off from life, dealing with emotions, not letting anyone in to help me. Doing everything for everyone around me but I needed someone to do something for me.'

Alex went on to reveal that she hasn't spoken to her father in person for five years after they attend her grandmother's funeral.

She recalled: 'He had some drink and said he knows he's not the person he should've been and he carries a lot of regrets and he's going to change.

'I remember thinking 'I don't care.' I spent my whole life sending cards, gifts, ringing him jut to check in because I had this guilt he'd be lonely, and from that moment I thought 'I'm done.'

'I didn't hear from him... it's just all talk. I'm over it.'

She revealed that her last contact with her father came two years later when she was competing on Strictly Come Dancing and had made it through to Blackpool week.

Alex was shocked when she received a text from Tony out of the blue asking if he could get her tickets to the show for a couple of his friends.

She recalled: 'He didn't care about me or ask how I was. All he cared about was Strictly tickets for his mates.

'I had the courage to write back 'that's wrong' and I think it must have touched him in a way as I'd never done that.

'Straight away he text back apologising and I thought 'this is bulls**t' and I haven't spoken to him since.'

Yet she revealed that she planned to speak to him before her autobiography was released, noting 'I have to and I want to.'

She explained: 'On one hand I've done this book to free my mum, on the other hand I'm scared it could ruin my dad's life and I don't want that.

'I need to pluck up some courage because I need to tell him I've written stuff that's not going to be comfortable for him. I truly hope he's not that person anymore. people change... he doesn't know anything about me.'","<article>

<p>She revealed that her last contact with Mr Scott came two years later when she was competing on Strictly Come Dancing and had made it through to Blackpool week and he asked her for some tickets.</p>

<p>But Mr Scott insisted: 'I've not seen her for several years, but I have had messages from her over that time. It's not true that there's been no contact between us since I contacted her about Strictly Come Dancing.</p>

<p>'As I've told you, she messaged me two weeks ago and wanted to see me.'</p>

<p>In another interview, Alex said she and Ronnie were forced to throw their toys away by Mr Scott who then beat them after she left a green space beside a tower block where they lived.</p>

<p>Mr Scott admitted: 'Yes, I did make them throw their toys away, but I didn't beat them. I bought those toys with my money. The kids were behaving badly and that was their punishment. What's wrong with that?'</p>

<p>In her memoir Alex lifts the lid for the first time on her relationship with Kelly Smith, 43 who played alongside her for both England and Arsenal.</p>

<p>During a television interview, she explained why she wrote about it, explaining that 'parts of the relationship affected her throughout her life' and she needed to 'break the cycle.'</p>

<p>Mr Scott said: 'I knew about Alex's sexuality all along, well before she was even with Kelly Smith. Everyone in the family knew about it.'</p>

<p>Recalling Alex's career, he said: 'I've always been proud of her. I've even gone to matches to see her play. I don't even like football but the only team that I've ever supported is Arsenal's Women's Team.'</p>

<p>Following the adverse publicity he has received since Alex's interviews and her memoir, Mr Scott said that he was considering meeting her to discuss what she said.</p>

<p>He added: 'I will speak to her but it's something that I need to think about. I've got a lot of other things on at the moment that are more important. At the end of the day, what's come out about me is just one of those things but there's more to tell to this story and one day, I want the full truth to come out.'</p>

<p>For the past 15 years, Mr Scott has been living in the Lake District where he works as a guide for a travel company taking tourists from across the world around the region.</p>

<p>He said: 'Look at the reviews of me by people I've taken on tour. Does that strike you as a violent, horrible man? I live a great, peaceful life. I don't miss London at all, and it puzzles me to think why Alex is saying all these things about me.'</p>

<p>It comes after Alex broke down in tears as she recalled her troubled childhood growing up with an abusive and violent father during an episode of This Morning.</p>

<p>Alex admitted that discussing her traumatic past in interviews to promote her memoir How (Not) to Be Strong was the 'hardest part.</p>

<p>Despite writing about her distressing formative years in the book, she claimed to not have spoken it out loud - and began crying when <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/phillip-schofield/index.html"">Phillip Schofield</a> read a segment.</p>

<p>Holly rushed over to give her a hug in a bid to comfort her as she broke down.</p>

<p>When the former children's presenter asked Alex whether it was 'difficult to write', she took a moment to regain her composure while filling up with tears.</p>

<p>She said while bawling: 'The hardest part is, I didn't write that chapter to shame my dad. I wanted my mum to be free.</p>

<p>'I want her to believe she's a role model and move forward. I write in the book she still thinks she's a coward. She's anything but.'</p>

<p>Alex recently confessed that before her parents separated when she was seven years old, both she and her brother would frequently hear their father beating their mother - with one incident so violent that she believed her mother had died.</p>

<p>Such was the level of control that her father inflicted that Alex was banned from showing any kind of affection towards her family members, admitting that to this day the trauma has stopped her from being able to hug her mother Carol or brother Ronnie.</p>

<p>Speaking to Steven Bartlett on <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcFNahUxd3k"">The Diary of a CEO</a> podcast, Alex admitted they would 'live in fear' of upsetting their father Tony and having to deal with the consequences.</p>

<p>Recalling the 'hardest night' she experienced, Alex remembered the day of her sixth birthday party when Carol had declined to fetch Tony a drink.</p>

<p>Alex confessed: 'As soon as everybody leaves that night he doesn't forget... that was the hardest night that one... My mum is trying to survive for her kids and im in a room listening to everything go on and just hoping she's alive</p>

<p>'I heard everything. I heard her trying to run. I just want to hug my mum but I can't. we weren't allowed to show love.</p>

<p>'That's the control. If we spoke back or didn't obey orders, didn't show you were strong - something would happen to me or my brother.'</p>

<p>Speaking about the long-term impact, she continued: 'To this day I can't hug my mum. I don't think I've ever hugged my brother because of that environment.'</p>

<p>Speaking about her coping mechanisms as a child, Alex added: 'The football cage was a safe space. I felt fun, I felt free and at home I was locked in, it was an environment where it was very much controlled.</p>

<p>'I wanted to love my dad so much, I was daddy's little girl, but he had this dark side and that's a side we saw a lot of growing up.</p>

<p>'Drink helped it out come out a lot more, you could see him turn, that's how he took it out on all of us, more so my mum.</p>

<p>'From a baby I could feel it, the environment we're in. If you step out of line you know what's going to happen and you don't want that to happen...</p>

<p>'What my mum would go through, the terror, the helplessness that you can't do anything, you're just living in fear.'</p>

<p>Asked if she ever feared being at home, Alex reasoned: 'I wanted to go home to protect my mum, to put a shield around her, to be strong for her even though she was doing the same for me and my brother.</p>

<p>'It's easy not to talk about it, every single day you see your mum walking on eggshells, she's scared to have a voice, say something, because she knows what she's  going to go through.'</p>

<p>Alex revealed that when her parents separated her father forced her and her brother to choose which parent they wanted to live with on the spot.</p>

<p>She confessed: 'I feel sad thinking about him, even to this day... then my dad just goes, leaves with everything, furniture, everything.</p>

<p>'I'm so lucky I had football. I had that out, something to focus on an environment that gave me structure.</p>

<p>'My mum puts a lot of blame on herself. I felt guilty as I went to therapy and learnt to go away and talk, but it took my mum back to a place that hurt her.'</p>

<p>After bottling up her feelings for so long Alex used the tools she learned in therapy to help her move forward and heal from her experience and gave her the strength to recount the abuse in her autobiography, How (Not) To Be Strong.</p>

<p>She explained: 'I've hidden it up until now but I'm older, I'm wiser and I don't want the heaviness of it anymore. I wrote my book hoping it frees my mum and she can move forward from it all.</p>

<p>'She read it and she loved it. I've gone through a lot of stuff that she didn't know about. I didn't want her to panic about me. She's learnt a lot about me, my emotions.</p>

<p>'She didn't know that as a child I didn't sleep because I was listening to see if she would move in the morning.</p>

<p>'I was shutting off from life, dealing with emotions, not letting anyone in to help me. Doing everything for everyone around me but I needed someone to do something for me.'</p>

<p>Alex went on to reveal that she hasn't spoken to her father in person for five years after they attend her grandmother's funeral.</p>

<p>She recalled: 'He had some drink and said he knows he's not the person he should've been and he carries a lot of regrets and he's going to change.</p>

<p>'I remember thinking 'I don't care.' I spent my whole life sending cards, gifts, ringing him jut to check in because I had this guilt he'd be lonely, and from that moment I thought 'I'm done.'</p>

<p>Alex was shocked when she received a text from Tony out of the blue asking if he could get her tickets to the show for a couple of his friends.</p>

<p>She recalled: 'He didn't care about me or ask how I was. All he cared about was Strictly tickets for his mates.</p>

The actors both shot to fame when they played the lead roles in the hit BBC drama based on Sally Rooney's novel of the same name.

Daisy, 24, caught the eye in a silver and bronze striped mini dress with a sheer detail as she walked the red carpet.

The shimmering garment featured a deep v-neckline while Daisy paired it with a black sheer skirt.

Adding height to her frame with a pair of black open-toed heels, the star wore her brunette locks in a loose bob.

Paul, 26, cut a dapper figure in a black pinstripe suit which he wore with a light blue shirt and gold chain necklace.

The star-studded awards, hosted by BOSS, honours the men and women who are giants of style and politics to legends of entertainment and sport.

With rapper Stromzy, 29, Squid Game's Lee Jung-jae, 49, and Hollywood actress Zoë Kravitz, 33, making the grade.

Olympic gold medal winner Sir Mo Farrah, 39, was also commended after his highly praised BBC documentary where he revealed he was trafficked into the UK as a child.

Other stars to make this year’s list include Top Boy’s Ashley Walters, 40, and Game of Thrones and Stranger Things star Joseph Quinn, 28, who famously played Eddie Munson in the Netflix series.

Each of the 26 honoured stars also graced their own solo cover of the Men's magazine which were unveiled before the ceremony.

The evening was held at the luxury hotel which is located in the heart of London's Knightsbridge with spectacular views overlooking Hyde Park.

Partygoers were treated to a lavish dinner by celebrity chef's Heston Blumenthal and Tom Kerridge before heading to the glamorous after party.

The glossy magazine announced what the famous faces will receive in their swanky gift bags in a post earlier this month.

With a whole host of spoils including everything from £599 Bowers & Wilkins headphones to a The Ivy club membership - costing a cool £1750.

In a tweet Saturday, Brown claimed the woman, who appears to be trying to get away in the video, was complicit in the interaction which took place during a trip at the Armani Hotel in Dubai on May 14.

'In the video you can clearly see she runs off with my swim trunks. If roles were reversed the headlines would read “AB having a wild night with nude female”. Yet when it’s me it automatically becomes a hate crime,' he wrote.

A staffer, speaking under the condition of anonymity, told the New York Post that other guests complained about Brown snubbing the United Arab Emirates' strict dress code by flaunting his bare chest inside the hotel. Other complaints also accused Brown of smoking marijuana in his room, which is a criminal offense in the country.

The controversy-prone Brown, 34, also used the backlash from the video as an opportunity to bring up the concussion controversy currently embroiling the NFL.

'It's crazy to me that even after I retire there is disinformation coming out about me. Ironically, during a time when the NFL is getting heat for allowing players to play when they're clearly concussed. They've been using black men as guinea pigs.'

The seven-time Pro Bowler was referring to Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa, who after officially escaping a concussion on Sunday in Miami, was diagnosed with a head injury on Thursday following a medical evaluation process that is plaguing the NFL.

Tagovailoa was cleared to return Sunday, despite stumbling to the ground and continuing to struggle even after getting back on his feet. Teammates needed to help keep the 24-year-old Hawaiian upright before he was removed from the game moments before halftime.

Both he and the team later claimed that Tagovailoa was not suffering from a head injury, but rather, an aggravated and existing back problem. After the upset win - led by Tagovailoa - he and the Dolphins said he was cleared by doctors, who had examined him for concussion symptoms.

Brown himself suffered a concussion after a shocking hit from Cincinnati Bengals defender Vontaze Burfict during the 2015 season.

All of the receiver's controversies, including multiple arrests and an accusation of sexual assault, happened after the violent hit and concussion.

Witnesses to his most recent incident in Dubai told the New York Post that others egged Brown on to keep shoving his butt at the woman.

He then made matters worse by snatching a head scarf from another swimmer and trying to tie it around the woman.

Brown proceeded to lift her and slam her into the pool, with one onlooker quipping that he was 'waterboarding her.'

Another man responded, 'He's giving her the long board.'

Brown then flashed his penis at the woman, asking, 'You want it?' After the story emerged Saturday, Brown insisted the woman had in fact snatched his trunks for a game, and that he hadn't done anything to upset her.

Two witnesses told the Post that Brown continued to flaunt his privates at the woman several times and said multiple people complained to hotel staff about his actions.

Representatives from the hotel declined to comment on the incident.

The hotel incidents all took place during Brown's visit to Dubai with Floyd Mayweather Jr. for an exhibition boxing match.

The Middle East nation follows Sharia law and has a strict set of morality codes that could've landed Brown in serious trouble.

It's the latest in a long series of shocking behavior that has resulted in Brown leaving the NFL in controversy and turning to rap music.

The troubled Pro Bowler shocked NFL fans across the country when he had a public meltdown in the middle of a game in January.

As the Bucs played against the Jets at MetLife Stadium, the benched Brown hopped into the field, shirtless, after an apparent dispute with coaches about whether he was healthy enough to play.

Brown claimed his outburst was fueled by 'dangerous painkillers' that Buccaneers' medical staff gave him for his ankle injury.

He was suspended days later, with Buccaneers officials saying he refused help for his mental health.

While the incident ultimately left Brown off the team and floating around as a free agent before he announced he was quitting the NFL, he had long been followed by controversy before that.

In 2020, former female trainer Britney Taylor filed a lawsuit against Brown, accusing him of sexually assaulting her.

While the suit was settled out of court, Brown was suspended for eight games for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.

That same year, Brown faced burglary and battery charges in Florida for attacking a truck driver delivering his belongings from California after being traded from the Oakland Raiders.

Brown was ordered to serve two years of probation, which included taking anger management courses.

The conflict between NFL profits and player health is nothing new, although the effort to reduce traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) is, relatively speaking. And it's that discrepancy that resulted in countless avoidable cases of brain damage, according to epidemiologist and George Washington University professor David Michaels.

An expert on environmental and occupational health who served as OSHA assistant secretary under Barack Obama from 2009 until 2017, Michaels wrote a book in 2020, The Triumph of Doubt, illustrating various industries' strategies to suppress data on the inherent dangers of their products.

'It remains a fundamental contradiction within football - for both the league and the players - that more football brings in more revenue, but it also increases the number and severity of brain damage cases,' Michaels told the Daily Mail in 2020.

'No other profession—not one—outranks professional football in causing life-altering injuries.'

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a degenerative brain disease that is caused by repeated hits to the head. Over time, these hits result in the accumulation of tau protein around the brain, which can lead to confusion, depression and eventually dementia.

There have been several retired football players who have come forward with brain diseases, many of whom attribute their condition to the game.

More than 1,800 former athletes and military veterans have pledged to donate their brains to the Concussion Legacy Foundation for CTE research.

CTE was usually associated with boxing before former NFL players began revealing their conditions.

Several notable players who committed suicide were posthumously diagnosed with the disease, such as Junior Seau and Aaron Hernandez.

While often connected to concussions, many researchers like Lee E. Goldstein, MD, PhD, an associate professor at Boston University, now believe sub-concussive hits also play a major part in CTE.

'Over the course of an NFL season, the overwhelming majority of hits are sub-concussive,' Goldstein told DailyMail.com. 'I'm not saying [the NFL is] wrong for focusing on concussions. But I am saying they're mis-prioritizing.'

With faulty science and flawed studies conducted by conflicted researchers, Michaels argues, the NFL delayed meaningful preventative action on chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) until the early 2000s – a decade after first resolving to address head injuries and nearly a century after the neurodegenerative disease was discovered in 1928.

'The steps that are being taken now, which we think will be useful in reducing the terrible damage to the brains of players, they could have been implemented years earlier,' said Michaels. 'The lives of many players may have been greatly improved had that been done.'

The NFL did not respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment in response to the 2020 interview with Michaels. However, the league did refute any similarities between itself and the tobacco industry in a statement given to the New York Times in 2016: 'The NFL is not the tobacco industry; it had no connection to the tobacco industry.'

Before the 1990s, the NFL didn't need such tactics. It was when journalists and fans began noticing a spike in concussions that the league took action, and that was only after then-commissioner Paul Tagliabue called it a 'pack journalism issue' while claiming that concussions only occurred 'every three or four games.'

Tagliabue's comments ignited a small controversy at the time, prompting him to start the Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (MTBI) Committee, which was aimed at reducing the 'injury risks in football.'

The problem, aside from its euphemistic choice of the word 'mild,' was that the committee didn't do very much.

'For eight years, the committee published nothing,' Michaels said. 'Evidence accumulated, but even when they started publishing papers, the papers were really covering up the problem. They asked questions in the wrong way. To me, it looked like they knew the answers they wanted to find before they even did a study.'

The NFL had claimed the MTBI committee was impartial, but when it finally did publish 13 papers in 'Neurosurgery' between 2003 and 2006, Michaels explained, 'obvious conflicts of interests' emerged.

Several members of the committee were clinical consultants for NFL teams, including the group's chairman, Elliot Pellman, a rheumatologist who served as the New York Jets' team doctor and also happened to be Tagliabue's personal physician.

In fact, over a dozen of the MBTI members had connections to league franchises. And that's not to mention Michael L. J. Apuzzo, a Neurosurgery editor who happened to be a medical consultant to the New York Giants.

It's not known if those conflicts affected the research directly, but Michaels argued that the MBTI committee's misguided conclusions did minimize the long-term risks of football.

For one, the concussion data was hardly comprehensive.

The records between 1996 through 2001 omitted more than 100 diagnosed concussions, according to the Times.

In response to that finding, the NFL acknowledged that 'the clubs were not required to submit their data and not every club did.'

And while the NFL admitted that detail should have been made clearer, the league denied any effort to 'alter or suppress the rate of concussions.'

Bill Barr, a neuropsychologist who once worked for the New York Jets, stopped short of accusing the NFL of a cover-up, but did criticized the MBTI's findings to the New York Times.

'You're not doing science here; you are putting forth some idea that you already have,' he said in 2016.

Michaels took aim at one study from Pellman and his co-author David Viano that asserted 'mild [traumatic brain injuries] in professional football are not serious injuries' because so many players return to the field within a week, often within the same game.

Furthermore, the paper argued, concussed players could safely return to the field, so long as they didn't show any lingering effects.

'These players had to be asymptomatic, with normal results on clinical and neurological examinations, and be cleared by a knowledgeable team physician,' read the paper. 'There were no adverse effects, and the results once again are in sharp contrast to the recommendations in published guidelines and the standard of practice of most college and high school football team physicians.'

That same six-year study claimed that 'no NFL player experienced second-impact syndrome, chronic cumulative injury, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) from repeated injuries.'

CTE can only be diagnosed posthumously so the absence of any confirmed cases in this study should have been expected.

In 2017, researchers at Boston University found some degree of CTE in 99 percent of former NFL players, 91 percent of players who stopped playing after college, and 21 percent of those who only made it to the high school level.

Experts caution that there is a selection bias in this study, as the families of players who had evident signs of head injuries were far more likely to donate to the BU brain bank.

Even so, the paper's claim that 'no NFL player experienced... chronic traumatic encephalopathy from repeated injuries' hasn't withstood the test of time.

But perhaps there was no greater overreach than the claim made within a paper titled: 'Concussion in Professional Football: Brain Responses by Finite Element Analysis.'

The authors, including Pellman, posited that players who reach the NFL level might be somehow immune from concussions.

'[T]here may be a natural selection of athletes that make it to the NFL because players more prone to concussion may have been weeded out during high school and college play,' read the paper, which was published in Neurosurgery. 'Brain responses shown here may represent those of players who are most resistant to the damaging effects of neural deformation during head impact.'

The MTBI committee was dismissive when neuropathologist Bennet Omalu identified the symptoms of CTE in former Pittsburgh Steelers center Mike Webster's autopsy in 2002. And when Omalu wrote a paper for Neurosurgery in 2005, calling for further CTE study by the NFL, the MTBI committee formally called for a retraction.

'Then, of course, when Bennet Omalu published the results of Iron Mike Webster's autopsy in 2005, the leading members of the committee didn't welcome the new data,' Michaels said. 'They attacked it. They demanded that Omalu retract his paper.'

The NFL even dismissed a league-funded 2009 study that showed former players are 19 times more likely to get dementia or other memory-related diseases.

Then-NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told the New York Times that the study did not formally diagnose dementia, claiming that telephone surveys of former players were insufficient.

Miller ultimately acknowledged a connection between CTE and football before congress in 2016.

As significant as a step as that was, it came amid other efforts to suppress unflattering media coverage.

The 2015 Sony film based on Omalu's work, Concussion, was altered under pressure from the NFL to project a more favorable view of professional football and the league, according to reports by the New York Times and Deadspin.

'The league has a great deal of leverage - in some ways more than a chemical company may have,' Michaels said. 'They know that they control the eyes of America for several hours every week. If the NFL went, took their business to other entertainment companies, then that would put a big dent in the profits of the companies that they work with.'

The NFL began changing rules in the 2000s, prohibiting dangerous tackles and formalizing a concussion protocol while threatening to fine non-compliant teams.

Team owners took further steps, pledging to fund $30 million to the National Institute of Health for independent CTE research in 2012, later giving another $100 million to Harvard researchers in 2013, and settling the aforementioned $1 billion concussion lawsuit with former players.

But even as the league's check book remained open, critics argued that the NFL's generosity came with strings attached.

In the face of mounting lawsuits, the tried to pull NIH funding for a Boston University CTE study over objections to BU's Dr. Robert Stern, a critic of the league, according to ESPN.com.

'The NFL had their own researchers that they supported,' Michaels said. 'When researchers who are independent of the NFL, especially the group at Boston University, was designated by the National Institute of Health to be the primary recipients of this funding, the NFL objected and wanted the NIH to bring in scientists who already have a relationship with the NFL, who essentially had a conflict of interest.

'That effort of the NFL failed, but it did show that the NFL did not want independent researchers looking at this problem.'

Data released in February by the NFL showed 187 concussions during the 2021 season, including preseason, all practices and games. While that is up from 172 the previous season, there were no exhibition games in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The concussion rate overall declined.

Encouraged by the trend of decreased concussions, Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL's chief medical officer, believes much more can be done.

'We are pleased with the concussion numbers, but we feel it's not the full picture,' Sills said, 'and we really want to aggressively reduce and work to eliminate avoidable head contact.'

Miller noted that the increase from 16 to 17 games in the regular season, dropping one preseason game, did not appear to affect injury trends.

The preseason had the highest injury rate — soft tissue injuries are common in training camp and in exhibition games — and the new 18th week didn't result in a spike of injuries.

'We didn't see it,' Miller said. 'The injury rate in the last week of the regular season was no higher than previous weeks; there seemed to be a bit of a drop-off.'

WHAT IS THE NFL'S PROBLEM WITH 'RACE NORMING'

Two years after a pair of former players sued the NFL over the treatment of black retirees in the league's $1 billion concussion settlement, hundreds of men whose medical tests were rescored to eliminate race bias now qualify for awards.

The newly approved payouts, announced in a report last month, were a victory for NFL families in the decade-long legal saga over concussions. The 2020 lawsuit unearthed the fact the dementia tests were being 'race-normed' — adjusted due to assumptions that black people have a lower cognitive baseline score. Changes to the settlement made last year are meant to make the tests race-blind.

The new results will add millions to the NFL's payouts for concussion-linked brain injuries. A league spokesman did not return a phone call Friday or respond to emails sent in recent weeks seeking comment on the rescoring.

Of the 646 black men whose tests were rescored, nearly half now qualify for dementia awards. Sixty-one are classified as having early to moderate dementia, with average awards topping $600,000; nearly 250 more have milder dementia and will get up to $35,000 in enhanced medical testing and treatment, according to the claims administrator's report.

Former players, lawyers and advocates say they'll now turn to getting the word out to more players who could receive awards.

'Our work has produced some great results and has opened many eyes,' said Ken Jenkins, a former Washington player who, along with his wife, petitioned the federal judge overseeing the settlement to make the changes and urged the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division to investigate. 'Now we're really focused on getting as many players who deserve compensation to be compensated.'

This first group of players had the best chance of success because they otherwise passed the testing protocols and would have qualified if they were white. Thousands of other Black former players can ask to be rescored or retested, but their cases might not be as strong based on earlier results on dementia, validity and impairment tests. About 70 percent of active players and 60 percent of living retirees are Black.

The fact that the testing algorithm adjusted scores by race — as a rough proxy for someone's socioeconomic background — went unnoticed for several years until lawyers for former Steelers Kevin Henry and Najeh Davenport sued the league. Factors such as age, education and race have long been used in neurology to help diagnose dementia. But experts say the formula was never meant to be used to determine payouts in a legal case.

'In 2022, how can you possibly think that another human being comes out of the womb with less cognitive ability? It's just impossible to believe that that can be true,' Jenkins said. 'It's unspeakable.'

Advocates fear that many former players don't know they can be rescored or retested, especially if they have cognitive issues and live alone.

'Men who are homeless, men who originally signed up but their cognitive function changed, men who are divorced or isolated — we are going to go looking for them,' said Amy Lewis, Jenkins' wife.

The couple, once critical of class counsel Chris Seeger for his response to the issue, now work with him to spread the word.

Seeger — lead lawyer for the nearly 20,000 retired players, who negotiated the settlement with the NFL — has apologized for initially failing to see the scope of the racial bias. He vowed in a recent interview to 'make sure the NFL pays every nickel they should.'

The league's tally just passed $1 billion in approved claims. However, appeals and audits mean actual payouts lag behind that number and now stand at about $916 million. Payouts include awards for four other compensable diagnoses: Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Lou Gehrig's disease and deaths before April 2015 involving CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

As reviewers tackle the thornier dementia claims, the process has slowed and audits and appeals intensified.

'Their mantra is deny, deny, delay until you die,' said James Pruitt, 58, a wide receiver who played for Indianapolis and Miami from 1986 to 1991.

After his NFL retirement, Pruitt became a teacher and middle school principal in Palm Beach County, Florida. But in 2010, in his mid-40s, the district asked him to step down. He could no longer perform his duties. Over time, he stopped calling on friends from his playing days.

'I don't get out, and I don't remember a lot of things. I've been told that I repeat things,' he said. 'I'm kind of embarrassed by the whole situation.'

After the settlement was approved in 2015, he and his wife attended meetings with lawyers who traveled the country to sell the plan to retired players' groups.

'We were told … this was going to be a very easy process, you just need to go to the doctors, get a qualifying diagnosis from them,' said Traci Pruitt, 42. 'Yet here we are six years later, and we're still getting the runaround.'

The couple has twice been approved by doctors only to have the decision overturned — once after their first doctor was removed from the program. Their lawyer believes they'll be successful on their third try, under the race-neutral scoring formula. They're still waiting to hear.

Traci Pruitt, an accountant who works from home, said an award would ensure she gets the help she needs to care for her husband: 'While I love him, I don't necessarily have that background and skill set.'

Seeger said he believes the claims process is picking up steam after a slow start.

'I know folks have said they weren't moving that well for awhile. I think we've won some appellate battles with the courts,' Seeger said. 'I don't think the NFL expected to pay $1 billion — and we're about to cross $1 billion.'","<article>

<p>All of the receiver's controversies, including multiple arrests and an accusation of sexual assault, happened after the violent hit and concussion.</p>

<p>Witnesses to his most recent incident in Dubai told the <a href=""https://nypost.com/2022/10/01/video-antonio-brown-exposes-himself-to-stunned-guests-in-hotel-pool/?utm_source=NYPTwitter&amp;utm_medium=SocialFlow&amp;utm_campaign=SocialFlow"">New York Post</a> that others egged Brown on to keep shoving his butt at the woman.</p>

<p>He then made matters worse by snatching a head scarf from another swimmer and trying to tie it around the woman.</p>

<p>Brown proceeded to lift her and slam her into the pool, with one onlooker quipping that he was 'waterboarding her.'</p>

<p>Another man responded, 'He's giving her the long board.'</p>

<p>Brown then flashed his penis at the woman, asking, 'You want it?'  After the story emerged Saturday, Brown insisted the woman had in fact snatched his trunks for a game, and that he hadn't done anything to upset her.</p>

<p>The troubled Pro Bowler shocked NFL fans across the country when he had a public meltdown in the middle of a game in January.</p>

<p>As the Bucs played against the Jets at MetLife Stadium, the benched Brown hopped into the field, shirtless, after an apparent dispute with coaches about whether he was healthy enough to play.</p>

<p>Brown claimed his outburst was fueled by 'dangerous painkillers' that Buccaneers' medical staff gave him for his ankle injury.</p>

<p>He was suspended days later, with Buccaneers officials saying he refused help for his mental health.</p>

<p>While the incident ultimately left Brown off the team and floating around as a free agent before he announced he was quitting the NFL, he had long been followed by controversy before that.</p>

<p>In 2020, former female trainer Britney Taylor filed a lawsuit against Brown, accusing him of sexually assaulting her.</p>

<p>While the suit was settled out of court, Brown was suspended for eight games for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.</p>

<p>That same year, Brown faced burglary and battery charges in Florida for attacking a truck driver delivering his belongings from California after being traded from the Oakland Raiders.</p>

<p>Brown was ordered to serve two years of probation, which included taking anger management courses.</p>

<p>The conflict between NFL profits and player health is nothing new, although the effort to reduce traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) is, relatively speaking. And it's that discrepancy that resulted in countless avoidable cases of brain damage, according to epidemiologist and George Washington University professor David Michaels.</p>

<p>An expert on environmental and occupational health who served as OSHA assistant secretary under Barack Obama from 2009 until 2017, Michaels wrote a book in 2020, The Triumph of Doubt, illustrating various industries' strategies to suppress data on the  inherent dangers of their products.</p>

<p>'It remains a fundamental contradiction within football - for both the league and the players - that more football brings in more revenue, but it also increases the number and severity of brain damage cases,' Michaels told the Daily Mail in 2020.</p>

<p>'No other profession—not one—outranks professional football in causing life-altering injuries.'</p>

<p>Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a degenerative brain disease that is caused by repeated hits to the head. Over time, these hits result in the accumulation of tau protein around the brain, which can lead to confusion, depression and eventually dementia.</p>

<p>There have been several retired football players who have come forward with brain diseases, many of whom attribute their condition to the game.</p>

<p>More than 1,800 former athletes and military veterans have pledged to donate their brains to the Concussion Legacy Foundation for CTE research.</p>

<p>CTE was usually associated with boxing before former NFL players began revealing their conditions.</p>

<p>Several notable players who committed suicide were posthumously diagnosed with the disease, such as Junior Seau and Aaron Hernandez.</p>

<p>While often connected to concussions, many researchers like Lee E. Goldstein, MD, PhD, an associate professor at Boston University, now believe sub-concussive hits also play a major part in CTE.</p>

<p>'Over the course of an NFL season, the overwhelming majority of hits are sub-concussive,' Goldstein told DailyMail.com. 'I'm not saying [the NFL is] wrong for focusing on concussions. But I am saying they're mis-prioritizing.'</p>

<p>With faulty science and flawed studies conducted by conflicted researchers, Michaels argues, the NFL delayed meaningful preventative action on chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) until the early 2000s – a decade after first resolving to address head injuries and nearly a century after the neurodegenerative disease was discovered in 1928.</p>

<p>'The steps that are being taken now, which we think will be useful in reducing the terrible damage to the brains of players, they could have been implemented years earlier,' said Michaels. 'The lives of many players may have been greatly improved had that been done.'</p>

<p>The NFL did not respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment in response to the 2020 interview with Michaels. However, the league did refute any similarities between itself and the tobacco industry in a statement given to the New York Times in 2016: 'The NFL is not the tobacco industry; it had no connection to the tobacco industry.'</p>

<p>Before the 1990s, the NFL didn't need such tactics. It was when journalists and fans began noticing a spike in concussions that the league took action, and that was only after then-commissioner Paul Tagliabue called it a 'pack journalism issue' while claiming that concussions only occurred 'every three or four games.'</p>

<p>Tagliabue's comments ignited a small controversy at the time, prompting him to start the Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (MTBI) Committee, which was aimed at reducing the 'injury risks in football.'</p>

<p>The problem, aside from its euphemistic choice of the word 'mild,' was that the committee didn't do very much.</p>

<p>'For eight years, the committee published nothing,' Michaels said. 'Evidence accumulated, but even when they started publishing papers, the papers were really covering up the problem. They asked questions in the wrong way. To me, it looked like they knew the answers they wanted to find before they even did a study.'</p>

<p>The NFL had claimed the MTBI committee was impartial, but when it finally did publish 13 papers in 'Neurosurgery' between 2003 and 2006, Michaels explained, 'obvious conflicts of interests' emerged.</p>

<p>Several members of the committee were clinical consultants for NFL teams, including the group's chairman, Elliot Pellman, a rheumatologist who served as the New York Jets' team doctor and also happened to be Tagliabue's personal physician.</p>

<p>In fact, over a dozen of the MBTI members had connections to league franchises. And that's not to mention Michael L. J. Apuzzo, a Neurosurgery editor who happened to be a medical consultant to the New York Giants.</p>

<p>It's not known if those conflicts affected the research directly, but Michaels argued that the MBTI committee's misguided conclusions did minimize the long-term risks of football.</p>

<p>For one, the concussion data was hardly comprehensive.</p>

<p>The records between 1996 through 2001 omitted more than 100 diagnosed concussions, according to the Times.</p>

<p>In response to that finding, the NFL acknowledged that 'the clubs were not required to submit their data and not every club did.'</p>

<p>And while the NFL admitted that detail should have been made clearer, the league denied any effort to 'alter or suppress the rate of concussions.'</p>

<p>Bill Barr, a neuropsychologist who once worked for the New York Jets, stopped short of accusing the NFL of a cover-up, but did criticized the MBTI's findings to the New York Times.</p>

<p>'You're not doing science here; you are putting forth some idea that you already have,' he said in 2016.</p>

On the bottom,  a brain sample from deceased former University of Texas football player Greg Ploetz, who had stage IV CTE, as seen by the dark tau protein buildup around the edges </p></figcaption></figure>

<p>Michaels took aim at one study from Pellman and his co-author David Viano that asserted 'mild [traumatic brain injuries] in professional football are not serious injuries' because so many players return to the field within a week, often within the same game.</p>

<p>Furthermore, the paper argued, concussed players could safely return to the field, so long as they didn't show any lingering effects.</p>

<p>'These players had to be asymptomatic, with normal results on clinical and neurological examinations, and be cleared by a knowledgeable team physician,' read the paper. 'There were no adverse effects, and the results once again are in sharp contrast to the recommendations in published guidelines and the standard of practice of most college and high school football team physicians.'</p>

<p>That same six-year study claimed that 'no NFL player experienced second-impact syndrome, chronic cumulative injury, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) from repeated injuries.'</p>

<p>CTE can only be diagnosed posthumously so the absence of any confirmed cases in this study should have been expected.</p>

<p>In 2017, researchers at Boston University found some degree of CTE in 99 percent of former NFL players, 91 percent of players who stopped playing after college, and 21 percent of those who only made it to the high school level.</p>

<p>Experts caution that there is a selection bias in this study, as the families of players who had evident signs of head injuries were far more likely to donate to the BU brain bank.</p>

<p>Even so, the paper's claim that 'no NFL player experienced... chronic traumatic encephalopathy from repeated injuries' hasn't withstood the test of time.</p>

<p>But perhaps there was no greater overreach than the claim made within a paper titled: 'Concussion in Professional Football: Brain Responses by Finite Element Analysis.'</p>

<p>The authors, including Pellman, posited that players who reach the NFL level might be somehow immune from concussions.</p>

<p>'[T]here may be a natural selection of athletes that make it to the NFL because players more prone to concussion may have been weeded out during high school and college play,' read the paper, which was published in Neurosurgery. 'Brain responses shown here may represent those of players who are most resistant to the damaging effects of neural deformation during head impact.'</p>

<p>The MTBI committee was dismissive when neuropathologist Bennet Omalu identified the symptoms of CTE in former Pittsburgh Steelers center Mike Webster's autopsy in 2002. And when Omalu wrote a paper for Neurosurgery in 2005, calling for further CTE study by the NFL, the MTBI committee formally called for a retraction.</p>

<p>'Then, of course, when Bennet Omalu published the results of Iron Mike Webster's autopsy in 2005, the leading members of the committee didn't welcome the new data,' Michaels said. 'They attacked it. They demanded that Omalu retract his paper.'</p>

<p>The NFL even dismissed a league-funded 2009 study that showed former players are 19 times more likely to get dementia or other memory-related diseases.</p>

<p>Then-NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told the New York Times that the study did not formally diagnose dementia, claiming that telephone surveys of former players were insufficient.</p>

<p>Miller ultimately acknowledged a connection between CTE and football before congress in 2016.</p>

<p>As significant as a step as that was, it came amid other efforts to suppress unflattering media coverage.</p>

<p>The 2015 Sony film based on Omalu's work, Concussion, was altered under pressure from the NFL to project a more favorable view of professional football and the league, according to reports by the New York Times and Deadspin.</p>

<p>'The league has a great deal of leverage - in some ways more than a chemical company may have,' Michaels said. 'They know that they control the eyes of America for several hours every week. If the NFL went, took their business to other entertainment companies, then that would put a big dent in the profits of the companies that they work with.'</p>

<p>The NFL began changing rules in the 2000s, prohibiting dangerous tackles and formalizing a concussion protocol while threatening to fine non-compliant teams.</p>

<p>Team owners took further steps, pledging to fund $30 million to the National Institute of Health for independent CTE research in 2012, later giving another $100 million to Harvard researchers in 2013, and settling the aforementioned $1 billion concussion lawsuit with former players.</p>

<p>But even as the league's check book remained open, critics argued that the NFL's generosity came with strings attached.</p>

<p>In the face of mounting lawsuits, the tried to pull NIH funding for a Boston University CTE study over objections to BU's Dr. Robert Stern, a critic of the league, according to ESPN.com.</p>

<p>'The NFL had their own researchers that they supported,' Michaels said. 'When researchers who are independent of the NFL, especially the group at Boston University, was designated by the National Institute of Health to be the primary recipients of this funding, the NFL objected and wanted the NIH to bring in scientists who already have a relationship with the NFL, who essentially had a conflict of interest.</p>

<p>'That effort of the NFL failed, but it did show that the NFL did not want independent researchers looking at this problem.'</p>

<p>Data released in February by the NFL showed 187 concussions during the 2021 season, including preseason, all practices and games. While that is up from 172 the previous season, there were no exhibition games in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The concussion rate overall declined.</p>

<p>Encouraged by the trend of decreased concussions, Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL's chief medical officer, believes much more can be done.</p>

<p>'We are pleased with the concussion numbers, but we feel it's not the full picture,' Sills said, 'and we really want to aggressively reduce and work to eliminate avoidable head contact.'</p>

<p>Miller noted that the increase from 16 to 17 games in the regular season, dropping one preseason game, did not appear to affect injury trends.</p>

<p>The preseason had the highest injury rate — soft tissue injuries are common in training camp and in exhibition games — and the new 18th week didn't result in a spike of injuries.</p>

<p>'We didn't see it,' Miller said. 'The injury rate in the last week of the regular season was no higher than previous weeks; there seemed to be a bit of a drop-off.'</p>

<p>WHAT IS THE NFL'S PROBLEM WITH 'RACE NORMING'</p>

<p>Two years after a pair of former players sued the NFL over the treatment of black retirees in the league's $1 billion concussion settlement, hundreds of men whose medical tests were rescored to eliminate race bias now qualify for awards.</p>

<p>The newly approved payouts, announced in a report last month, were a victory for NFL families in the decade-long legal saga over concussions. The 2020 lawsuit unearthed the fact the dementia tests were being 'race-normed' — adjusted due to assumptions that black people have a lower cognitive baseline score. Changes to the settlement made last year are meant to make the tests race-blind.</p>

<p>The new results will add millions to the NFL's payouts for concussion-linked brain injuries. A league spokesman did not return a phone call Friday or respond to emails sent in recent weeks seeking comment on the rescoring.</p>

Both Henry and Davenport had sued the league over the issue </p></figcaption></figure>

<p>Of the 646 black men whose tests were rescored, nearly half now qualify for dementia awards. Sixty-one are classified as having early to moderate dementia, with average awards topping $600,000; nearly 250 more have milder dementia and will get up to $35,000 in enhanced medical testing and treatment, according to the claims administrator's report.</p>

<p>Former players, lawyers and advocates say they'll now turn to getting the word out to more players who could receive awards.</p>

<p>'Our work has produced some great results and has opened many eyes,' said Ken Jenkins, a former Washington player who, along with his wife, petitioned the federal judge overseeing the settlement to make the changes and urged the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division to investigate. 'Now we're really focused on getting as many players who deserve compensation to be compensated.'</p>

<p>This first group of players had the best chance of success because they otherwise passed the testing protocols and would have qualified if they were white. Thousands of other Black former players can ask to be rescored or retested, but their cases might not be as strong based on earlier results on dementia, validity and impairment tests. About 70 percent of active players and 60 percent of living retirees are Black.</p>

<p>The fact that the testing algorithm adjusted scores by race — as a rough proxy for someone's socioeconomic background — went unnoticed for several years until lawyers for former Steelers Kevin Henry and Najeh Davenport sued the league. Factors such as age, education and race have long been used in neurology to help diagnose dementia. But experts say the formula was never meant to be used to determine payouts in a legal case.</p>

<p>'In 2022, how can you possibly think that another human being comes out of the womb with less cognitive ability? It's just impossible to believe that that can be true,' Jenkins said. 'It's unspeakable.'</p>

<p>Advocates fear that many former players don't know they can be rescored or retested, especially if they have cognitive issues and live alone.</p>

<p>'Men who are homeless, men who originally signed up but their cognitive function changed, men who are divorced or isolated — we are going to go looking for them,' said Amy Lewis, Jenkins' wife.</p>

<p>The couple, once critical of class counsel Chris Seeger for his response to the issue, now work with him to spread the word.</p>

<p>Seeger — lead lawyer for the nearly 20,000 retired players, who negotiated the settlement with the NFL — has apologized for initially failing to see the scope of the racial bias. He vowed in a recent interview to 'make sure the NFL pays every nickel they should.'</p>

<p>The league's tally just passed $1 billion in approved claims. However, appeals and audits mean actual payouts lag behind that number and now stand at about $916 million. Payouts include awards for four other compensable diagnoses: Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Lou Gehrig's disease and deaths before April 2015 involving CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy.</p>

<p>As reviewers tackle the thornier dementia claims, the process has slowed and audits and appeals intensified.</p>

<p>'Their mantra is deny, deny, delay until you die,' said James Pruitt, 58, a wide receiver who played for Indianapolis and Miami from 1986 to 1991.</p>

<p>After his NFL retirement, Pruitt became a teacher and middle school principal in Palm Beach County, Florida. But in 2010, in his mid-40s, the district asked him to step down. He could no longer perform his duties. Over time, he stopped calling on friends from his playing days.</p>

<p>'I don't get out, and I don't remember a lot of things. I've been told that I repeat things,' he said. 'I'm kind of embarrassed by the whole situation.'</p>

<p>After the settlement was approved in 2015, he and his wife attended meetings with lawyers who traveled the country to sell the plan to retired players' groups.</p>

<p>'We were told … this was going to be a very easy process, you just need to go to the doctors, get a qualifying diagnosis from them,' said Traci Pruitt, 42. 'Yet here we are six years later, and we're still getting the runaround.'</p>

<p>The couple has twice been approved by doctors only to have the decision overturned — once after their first doctor was removed from the program. Their lawyer believes they'll be successful on their third try, under the race-neutral scoring formula. They're still waiting to hear.</p>

<p>Traci Pruitt, an accountant who works from home, said an award would ensure she gets the help she needs to care for her husband: 'While I love him, I don't necessarily have that background and skill set.'</p>

<p>Seeger said he believes the claims process is picking up steam after a slow start.</p>

<p>'I know folks have said they weren't moving that well for awhile. I think we've won some appellate battles with the courts,' Seeger said. 'I don't think the NFL expected to pay $1 billion — and we're about to cross $1 billion.'</p>

Netflix bosses 'are spooked by backlash over mega-drama The Crown': Show's creator Peter Morgan is 'increasingly uncomfortable' as producers are slammed over new series covering the royal family's turbulent 1990s amid claims storylines are 'malicious',https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11325493/Netflix-spooked-Crown-backlash-producers-come-fire-new-series.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11325493/Netflix-spooked-Crown-backlash-producers-come-fire-new-series.html,2022-10-17T22:35:48+01:00,"Netflix is in crisis over the backlash to the latest series of its mega-budget drama The Crown.

The streaming giant is said to be ‘spooked’ by the outrage that some storylines have caused – even before it has been broadcast next month.

Netflix, which spends £11.5 million per episode on the show, which is one of its biggest global hits, is about to launch series five.

It will cover the years from 1991 to 1997, and will include details of Diana’s Panorama interview in 1995.

King Charles, played by Dominic West, is the dominant figure in the drama. He is shown lobbying Prime Minister John Major in a bizarre attempt to force his mother’s abdication.

It also depicts Charles bitterly arguing with Diana as their divorce looms, and romancing Camilla, now Queen Consort, including a dramatisation of the notorious ‘tampongate’ phone call.

A production source said that media outrage over inaccuracies – and the lack of sensitivity in airing the series so close to the death of the Queen – is ‘spooking’ the broadcaster.

The source said: ‘The show has never been about sensationalism but it has also always been a drama. For the first years it seemed that everyone was happy to tolerate it.’

The Crown, created and written by Peter Morgan, has been a hit for Netflix since it was first released in 2016.

But the source said Morgan had become increasingly ‘uncomfortable’ as the series of The Crown edged closer to the present day.

They said: ‘The truth is that it was easier to write the earlier series because, firstly, there is a wealth of historical documentation, plus a consensus over more of what happened, and you can be more broad brush dramatically and people don’t find it hurtful.

‘Peter is always trying to get to the truth. There is always reams and reams of research.

‘However, people are more loose-lipped about Princess Margaret 50 years ago than John Major in 1991.

‘Peter is very aware of all of it and it is a struggle. He insisted on announcing that series five would be the last, even though Netflix didn’t want to announce it. It didn’t want to kill the golden goose.

‘Then, a few months, later he had changed his mind and he said that he was writing series six. But this will be it. He won’t go any further towards the present day. It’s already uncomfortable enough.’

The source added: ‘He is quite traumatised by the criticism. He has not done anything to be sensational. The show would be a different show if he sought the sensational.

‘He has not sought to trash the reputation of the Royal Family – I mean, he accepted a CBE. I think we can all accept that’s not going to turn into a knighthood.’

It can be revealed that the scripts of series five were rewritten last year in the wake of revelations about Martin Bashir and how he manipulated Diana into giving the interview via a dirty tricks campaign.

In the original script, actress Elizabeth Debicki – who plays the late princess – would have been seen giving the interview and speaking the words that Diana said.

But all that was taken out after revelations about Bashir’s deceit, exposed in an inquiry led by Lord Dyson published in May last year.

Instead, Bashir is seen convincing her to talk, but the interview itself isn’t shown.

However, she is seen cooperating with Andrew Morton on the Diana: Her True Story book and seen briefing tabloid journalists. She’s also seen bombarding lover Hasnat Khan with telephone calls.

Makers Left Bank Pictures are now filming series six and will not be showing the car crash which killed Diana, although she will be seen at the Ritz with Dodi.

Buckingham Palace declined to comment. Netflix did not respond.

He described the monarchy as 'insane' and said our late Queen was 'of limited intelligence'... but has The Crown's writer now gone too far, asks GUY ADAMS

Having the intimate details of your personal life served up for public consumption is not nice. Just ask Peter Morgan.

Only last year, the 59-year-old screenwriter was the subject of a high-profile real-life drama when he split from actress girlfriend Gillian Anderson, who played Margaret Thatcher in The Crown, and took up with socialite Jemima Khan.

Gossipy coverage of the brief affair ensued, fuelled both by the glamorous nature of its protagonists and the fact that Khan, who was working as a consultant on the Netflix show, had hitherto been regarded as a chum of Anderson. And Morgan didn’t like it. Not at all.

He therefore hired Schillings, the combative law firm which helps oligarchs and celebrities manage their reputations, to send an indignant letter to newspapers, instructing them to stop writing about the whole thing. Or, as the document read, to ‘refrain from intruding into our client’s private life and stop publishing speculation about his relationships and family life’.

It seemed, at the time, like a spectacularly hypocritical request, given the fact that Morgan owes the lion’s share of his fame, and considerable fortune, to creating fictitious drama about real (and often living) individuals.

Peter Morgan branded the Royal Family ‘survival organisms, like a mutating virus’. If that is really what he thinks, one wonders exactly why he chose to accept the offer of a CBE in 2016

Indeed, almost all of his most famous films and TV shows — which have won a sackful of Golden Globes, Baftas and Emmys, and seen him twice nominated for an Oscar — delve without authorisation into the most personal and confidential moments of other people’s lives.

Take The Crown, his most lucrative creation, which is due to receive a red-carpet premiere for its fifth series at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, early next month. Morgan neither sought, nor received, the consent of King Charles before choosing to dissect his entire life on this so-called ‘fictional dramatisation’, which unfairly depicts our new monarch as a self-serving and disloyal man.

Neither was Charles allowed to veto a host of hurtful scenes depicting wholly made-up events.

One particularly dodgy example comes via an episode where Morgan invents a conversation in which the then Prince of Wales tells his late mother ‘that if we were an ordinary family and social services came to visit, they would have thrown us into care and you [the Queen] into jail’.

Another, set in the early 1990s, involves a fictitious exchange in which Charles plots with John Major to oust the Queen and install himself on the throne. The former prime minister this weekend dubbed it ‘malicious nonsense’.

Other royals who are casually smeared in the latest series of The Crown (which covers 1991 to 1997) include Prince Philip.

An entire plotline is, to this end, devoted to suggesting that he pursued a scandalous extra-marital affair with Penelope Knatchbull, the Countess Mountbatten of Burma, who is played by Natascha McElhone.

Viewers see the late Duke of Edinburgh (or at least Morgan’s version of him) tell Knatchbull that he the Queen have ‘grown in separate directions’.

Last year, the 59-year-old screenwriter was the subject of a high-profile real-life drama when he split from actress girlfriend Gillian Anderson, who played Margaret Thatcher in The Crown

Rightly or wrongly, there are millions of casual viewers who regard The Crown as a vaguely accurate portrayal of quite recent events. Pictured: Morgan with Matt Smith and Claire Foy on the set of The Crown

Then, during a carriage-driving trip, they briefly touch hands, with Morgan’s camera zooming in and lingering on the scene before Philip gives his companion a private phone number.

Needless to say, there’s no credible evidence that such an exchange took place, or that Philip was anything other than a devoted husband to Her Majesty. Suggesting otherwise, so soon after both of their deaths, is at best distasteful and at worst downright cruel.

Then there are episodes which appear to lend credibility to the barmy conspiracy theory that Princess Diana was murdered.

At several points during the series, her telephone calls end with odd clicks, suggesting that MI5 is listening in, while in another incident the brake cables on her car appear to have been cut, causing a near-accident.

Of course, were Morgan’s films about fictional characters, this would all be harmless entertainment. But these are real people. And (rightly or wrongly) there are millions of casual viewers who regard The Crown as a vaguely accurate portrayal of quite recent events.

That may explain the increasing volume of criticism that has greeted every passing series of the Netflix show: where once Morgan was taking liberties with the reputation of George VI, Edward VIII or other long-dead historical figures, his recent iterations of the programme have begun invading the privacy of royals who are very much still alive.

Among those now lining up to criticise the screenwriter are William Shawcross, the official biographer of the Queen Mother. This week he called The Crown ‘an odious series, filled with lies and half-truths encased in lace and velvet’.

‘It is astonishingly and deliberately hurtful to members of the Royal Family — public servants who cannot answer back, let alone sue for damages,’ he added, further accusing Morgan of waging ‘a campaign to abuse’ on the monarchy and ‘destroying by lies a vital institution’. He called the whole thing ‘an absolute disgrace’.

The vehement nature of this criticism has perhaps surprised Morgan, the privately-educated son of a German immigrant who began writing at Leeds University in the early 1980s.

For much of his career, he kept out of the firing line and, having worked in relatively obscure television roles in the 1990s, he did not achieve fame until the early 2000s, when he wrote The Deal, a topical TV film about the relationship between Tony Blair and Gordon Brown which was a big hit.

Morgan then cemented his status as a titan of historical drama (and darling of Hollywood) via the 2006 hit The Last King Of Scotland, depicting Ugandan dictator Idi Amin. He followed it up with 2008’s Frost/Nixon, depicting Sir David Frost’s post-Watergate interviews of the U.S. President Richard Nixon.

There was also the 2006 film The Queen, for which Helen Mirren won the Oscar for best actress, portraying Her Majesty in the aftermath of Diana’s death in 1997 (although that was generally considered by critics to be more respectful of the royals than Morgan’s recent dramas).

While a sort of fame inevitably ensued, the nearest Morgan came to having his own existence subjected to scrutiny came during the final years of his marriage to Austrian aristocrat Lila Schwarzenberg, born Princess Anna Carolina zu Schwarzenberg, mother of his five children. Writing in an Austrian society magazine, before their 2014 separation, she once revealed what she said were his unsuccessful efforts to seduce her on holiday with the help of the erotic novel Fifty Shades Of Grey.

‘Peter still carries the fantasy that the combination of sun, sand and sea undoubtedly leads to countless sex sessions,’ she wrote. ‘Unfortunately, I have to admit that Shades Of Grey didn’t really change much in the course of our holiday.’

On another occasion, she described how Morgan was once furious to be served a dinner of fish fingers.

‘Peter always says you can gauge the state of our marriage on the number of fish fingers he gets served up in a week,’ she wrote in 2013. ‘And it appears I went too far once again with my culinary neglect towards Peter as I served him the leftovers of the kids’ meal. He took one look and said, “I am neither five years old nor a f****** penguin.” ’

What he would make of a rival dramatist turning these incidents into entertainment for the masses is, of course, anyone’s guess.

Friends this week described Morgan as being ‘quite traumatised’ by the mounting controversy over The Crown’s new series, saying ‘he has not done anything to be sensational, the show would be a different show if he sought the sensational. He has not sought to trash the reputation of the Royal Family’.

History suggests otherwise, however. During an interview with the Sunday Times in 2017, he revealed his actual views about the monarchy, declaring that Queen Elizabeth II was ‘of limited intelligence . . . She’s 90-something years old and barely knows what the internet is.’

He then branded the Royal Family ‘survival organisms, like a mutating virus,’ said that the Queen’s belief in Christianity was ‘deranged’ and the monarchy itself is ‘insane’.

If that is really what he thinks, one wonders exactly why Morgan chose to accept the offer of a CBE in early 2016 (before the first series of The Crown had aired).

During an investiture ceremony, the (then) Prince Charles is said to have exchanged small talk and told him: ‘Scriptwriting isn’t so easy, is it? I tend to think it’s not what you leave in but what you leave out that’s most important.’","<article>

<p><a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/netflix/index.html"">Netflix</a> is in crisis over the backlash to the latest series of its mega-budget drama <a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/the-crown/index.html"">The Crown</a>.</p>

<p>The streaming giant is said to be ‘spooked’ by the outrage that some storylines have caused – even before it has been broadcast next month.</p>

<p>Netflix, which spends £11.5 million per episode on the show, which is one of its biggest global hits, is about to launch series five.</p>

<p>It will cover the years from 1991 to 1997, and will include details of Diana’s Panorama interview in 1995.</p>

<p>King Charles, played by Dominic West, is the dominant figure in the drama. He is shown lobbying Prime Minister John Major in a bizarre attempt to force his mother’s abdication.</p>

<p>It also depicts Charles bitterly arguing with Diana as their divorce looms, and romancing Camilla, now Queen Consort, including a dramatisation of the notorious ‘tampongate’ phone call.</p>

<p>A production source said that media outrage over inaccuracies – and the lack of sensitivity in airing the series so close to the death of the Queen – is ‘spooking’ the broadcaster.</p>

<p>The source said: ‘The show has never been about sensationalism but it has also always been a drama. For the first years it seemed that everyone was happy to tolerate it.’</p>

<p>The Crown, created and written by Peter Morgan, has been a hit for Netflix since it was first released in 2016.</p>

<p>But the source said Morgan had become increasingly ‘uncomfortable’ as the series of The Crown edged closer to the present day.</p>

<p>They said: ‘The truth is that it was easier to write the earlier series because, firstly, there is a wealth of historical documentation, plus a consensus over more of what happened, and you can be more broad brush dramatically and people don’t find it hurtful.</p>

<p>‘Peter is always trying to get to the truth. There is always reams and reams of research.</p>

<p>‘However, people are more loose-lipped about Princess Margaret 50 years ago than John Major in 1991.</p>

<p>‘Peter is very aware of all of it and it is a struggle. He insisted on announcing that series five would be the last, even though Netflix didn’t want to announce it. It didn’t want to kill the golden goose.</p>

<p>‘Then, a few months, later he had changed his mind and he said that he was writing series six. But this will be it. He won’t go any further towards the present day. It’s already uncomfortable enough.’</p>

<p>The source added: ‘He is quite traumatised by the criticism. He has not done anything to be sensational. The show would be a different show if he sought the sensational.</p>

<p>‘He has not sought to trash the reputation of the Royal Family – I mean, he accepted a CBE. I think we can all accept that’s not going to turn into a knighthood.’</p>

<p>It can be revealed that the scripts of series five were rewritten last year in the wake of revelations about Martin Bashir and how he manipulated Diana into giving the interview via a dirty tricks campaign.</p>

<p>In the original script, actress Elizabeth Debicki – who plays the late princess – would have been seen giving the interview and speaking the words that Diana said.</p>

<p>But all that was taken out after revelations about Bashir’s deceit, exposed in an inquiry led by Lord Dyson published in May last year.</p>

<p>Instead, Bashir is seen convincing her to talk, but the interview itself isn’t shown.</p>

<p>However, she is seen cooperating with Andrew Morton on the Diana: Her True Story book and seen briefing tabloid journalists. She’s also seen bombarding lover Hasnat Khan with telephone calls.</p>

<p>Makers Left Bank Pictures are now filming series six and will not be showing the car crash which killed Diana, although she will be seen at the Ritz with Dodi.</p>

<p>Buckingham Palace declined to comment. Netflix did not respond.</p>

<p>He described the monarchy as 'insane' and said our late Queen was 'of limited intelligence'... but has The Crown's writer now gone too far, asks GUY ADAMS</p>

<p>Having the intimate details of your personal life served up for public consumption is not nice. Just ask Peter Morgan.</p>

<p>Only last year, the 59-year-old screenwriter was the subject of a high-profile real-life drama when he split from actress girlfriend Gillian Anderson, who played Margaret Thatcher in The Crown, and took up with socialite Jemima Khan.</p>

<p>Gossipy coverage of the brief affair ensued, fuelled both by the glamorous nature of its protagonists and the fact that Khan, who was working as a consultant on the Netflix show, had hitherto been regarded as a chum of Anderson. And Morgan didn’t like it. Not at all.</p>

<p>He therefore hired Schillings, the combative law firm which helps oligarchs and celebrities manage their reputations, to send an indignant letter to newspapers, instructing them to stop writing about the whole thing. Or, as the document read, to ‘refrain from intruding into our client’s private life and stop publishing speculation about his relationships and family life’.</p>

<p>It seemed, at the time, like a spectacularly hypocritical request, given the fact that Morgan owes the lion’s share of his fame, and considerable fortune, to creating fictitious drama about real (and often living) individuals.</p>

<figure><img src=""https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/10/17/22/63570055-11325493-image-a-41_1666042046533.jpg"" alt=""Peter Morgan branded the Royal Family ¿survival organisms, like a mutating virus¿.

<p>Peter Morgan branded the Royal Family ‘survival organisms, like a mutating virus’. If that is really what he thinks, one wonders exactly why he chose to accept the offer of a CBE in 2016</p>

<p>Indeed, almost all of his most famous films and TV shows — which have won a sackful of Golden Globes, Baftas and Emmys, and seen him twice nominated for an Oscar — delve without authorisation into the most personal and confidential moments of other people’s lives.</p>

<p>Take The Crown, his most lucrative creation, which is due to receive a red-carpet premiere for its fifth series at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, early next month. Morgan neither sought, nor received, the consent of King Charles before choosing to dissect his entire life on this so-called ‘fictional dramatisation’, which unfairly depicts our new monarch as a self-serving and disloyal man.</p>

<p>Neither was Charles allowed to veto a host of hurtful scenes depicting wholly made-up events.</p>

<p>One particularly dodgy example comes via an episode where Morgan invents a conversation in which the then Prince of Wales tells his late mother ‘that if we were an ordinary family and social services came to visit, they would have thrown us into care and you [the Queen] into jail’.</p>

<p>Another, set in the early 1990s, involves a fictitious exchange in which Charles plots with John Major to oust the Queen and install himself on the throne. The former prime minister this weekend dubbed it ‘malicious nonsense’.</p>

<p>Other royals who are casually smeared in the latest series of The Crown (which covers 1991 to 1997) include Prince Philip.</p>

<p>An entire plotline is, to this end, devoted to suggesting that he pursued a scandalous extra-marital affair with Penelope Knatchbull, the Countess Mountbatten of Burma, who is played by Natascha McElhone.</p>

<p>Viewers see the late Duke of Edinburgh (or at least Morgan’s version of him) tell Knatchbull that he the Queen have ‘grown in separate directions’.</p>

<figure><img src=""https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/10/17/22/63571293-11325493-image-a-39_1666042041809.jpg"" alt=""Last year, the 59-year-old screenwriter was the subject of a high-profile real-life drama when he split from actress girlfriend Gillian Anderson, who played Margaret Thatcher in The Crown""></figure>

<p>Rightly or wrongly, there are millions of casual viewers who regard The Crown as a vaguely accurate portrayal of quite recent events. Pictured: Morgan with Matt Smith and Claire Foy on the set of The Crown</p>

<p>Then, during a carriage-driving trip, they briefly touch hands, with Morgan’s camera zooming in and lingering on the scene before Philip gives his companion a private phone number.</p>

<p>Needless to say, there’s no credible evidence that such an exchange took place, or that Philip was anything other than a devoted husband to Her Majesty. Suggesting otherwise, so soon after both of their deaths, is at best distasteful and at worst downright cruel.</p>

<p>Then there are episodes which appear to lend credibility to the barmy conspiracy theory that Princess Diana was murdered.</p>

<p>At several points during the series, her telephone calls end with odd clicks, suggesting that MI5 is listening in, while in another incident the brake cables on her car appear to have been cut, causing a near-accident.</p>

<p>Of course, were Morgan’s films about fictional characters, this would all be harmless entertainment. But these are real people. And (rightly or wrongly) there are millions of casual viewers who regard The Crown as a vaguely accurate portrayal of quite recent events.</p>

<p>That may explain the increasing volume of criticism that has greeted every passing series of the Netflix show: where once Morgan was taking liberties with the reputation of George VI, Edward VIII or other long-dead historical figures, his recent iterations of the programme have begun invading the privacy of royals who are very much still alive.</p>

<p>Among those now lining up to criticise the screenwriter are William Shawcross, the official biographer of the Queen Mother. This week he called The Crown ‘an odious series, filled with lies and half-truths encased in lace and velvet’.</p>

<p>‘It is astonishingly and deliberately hurtful to members of the Royal Family — public servants who cannot answer back, let alone sue for damages,’ he added, further accusing Morgan of waging ‘a campaign to abuse’ on the monarchy and ‘destroying by lies a vital institution’. He called the whole thing ‘an absolute disgrace’.</p>

<p>The vehement nature of this criticism has perhaps surprised Morgan, the privately-educated son of a German immigrant who began writing at Leeds University in the early 1980s.</p>

<p>For much of his career, he kept out of the firing line and, having worked in relatively obscure television roles in the 1990s, he did not achieve fame until the early 2000s, when he wrote The Deal, a topical TV film about the relationship between Tony Blair and Gordon Brown which was a big hit.</p>

<p>Morgan then cemented his status as a titan of historical drama (and darling of Hollywood) via the 2006 hit The Last King Of Scotland, depicting Ugandan dictator Idi Amin. He followed it up with 2008’s Frost/Nixon, depicting Sir David Frost’s post-Watergate interviews of the U.S. President Richard Nixon.</p>

<p>There was also the 2006 film The Queen, for which Helen Mirren won the Oscar for best actress, portraying Her Majesty in the aftermath of Diana’s death in 1997 (although that was generally considered by critics to be more respectful of the royals than Morgan’s recent dramas).</p>

<p>While a sort of fame inevitably ensued, the nearest Morgan came to having his own existence subjected to scrutiny came during the final years of his marriage to Austrian aristocrat Lila Schwarzenberg, born Princess Anna Carolina zu Schwarzenberg, mother of his five children. Writing in an Austrian society magazine, before their 2014 separation, she once revealed what she said were his unsuccessful efforts to seduce her on holiday with the help of the erotic novel Fifty Shades Of Grey.</p>

<p>‘Peter still carries the fantasy that the combination of sun, sand and sea undoubtedly leads to countless sex sessions,’ she wrote. ‘Unfortunately, I have to admit that Shades Of Grey didn’t really change much in the course of our holiday.’</p>

<p>On another occasion, she described how Morgan was once furious to be served a dinner of fish fingers.</p>

<p>‘Peter always says you can gauge the state of our marriage on the number of fish fingers he gets served up in a week,’ she wrote in 2013. ‘And it appears I went too far once again with my culinary neglect towards Peter as I served him the leftovers of the kids’ meal. He took one look and said, “I am neither five years old nor a f****** penguin.” ’</p>

<p>What he would make of a rival dramatist turning these incidents into entertainment for the masses is, of course, anyone’s guess.</p>

<p>Friends this week described Morgan as being ‘quite traumatised’ by the mounting controversy over The Crown’s new series, saying ‘he has not done anything to be sensational, the show would be a different show if he sought the sensational. He has not sought to trash the reputation of the Royal Family’.</p>

<p>History suggests otherwise, however. During an interview with the Sunday Times in 2017, he revealed his actual views about the monarchy, declaring that Queen Elizabeth II was ‘of limited intelligence . . . She’s 90-something years old and barely knows what the internet is.’</p>

<p>He then branded the Royal Family ‘survival organisms, like a mutating virus,’ said that the Queen’s belief in Christianity was ‘deranged’ and the monarchy itself is ‘insane’.</p>

<p>If that is really what he thinks, one wonders exactly why Morgan chose to accept the offer of a CBE in early 2016 (before the first series of The Crown had aired).</p>

'Her attitude horrified everyone': Shakira 'sparks fury for jumping a queue at a Halloween attraction' - while other families waited up to 90 minutes,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11376741/Shakira-sparks-fury-jumping-queue-Halloween-attraction.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11376741/Shakira-sparks-fury-jumping-queue-Halloween-attraction.html,2022-11-01T09:37:21+00:00,"Shakira has reportedly sparked fury for jumping the queue at a Halloween attraction called the Tower Of Terror in Barcelona, while other families waited for up to 90 minutes.

According to various Spanish news sites, including 20minutos.com, Shakira, 45, her children as well as her friends and their children were ushered to the front.

A witness told Socialité: 'They began to separate everyone, and Shakira appeared with her children and two security agents and they sneaked in.

'Despite people crying out, Shakira doesn't flinch. The organisation said that they let in whoever they wanted,"" says the journalist.

'The attitude is what horrifies all the attendees. Everyone was outraged, because it is a very cr**ppy image.'

MailOnline has contacted a spokesperson for Shakira for more information.

It's been a tough time for Shakira of late.

Shakira and her longterm partner, soccer player Gerard Piqué, 35, announced their breakup in June, releasing a statement.

They wrote: 'We regret to confirm that we are separating. We ask for privacy at this moment for the well-being of our children, who are our maximum priority. Thank you in advance for your understanding and respect.'

The pair share two sons, Milan, nine, and Sasha, seven and he has moved on with new girlfriend Clara Chia Marti, 23.

In an interview with Elle leading up to the release of Monotonía, the artist admitted it's been a difficult period for her due to a variety of reasons, including media scrutiny, but she still has hope for herself and others going through hard times.

'I think that women, we are resilient. You know, we have this resiliency that is just innate in all of us,' she explained.

'I need to become an example for my kids, that I need to be what they want, what I want them to become. And I want to be there, also, for all the people who have shown me their love and support. That is my biggest strength. That’s my most powerful engine right now.'

It comes as Shakira and Gerard continue to try to hash out an agreement on their separation, with the pair recently being spotted outside of a law firm's office.

As well as dealing with her looming divorce, Shakira's legal woes include an impending trial on charges of tax fraud.

Spanish prosecutors accused Shakira in 2018 of failing to pay 14.5 million euros ($13.9 million) in taxes on income earned between 2012 and 2014. Prosecutors are seeking an eight-year prison sentence and a hefty fine if she is found guilty of tax evasion.

Shakira has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and rejected a deal with authorities to avoid going to trial. Her public relations firm has said that she has already paid all that she owed and an additional 3 million euros ($2.8 million) in interest.

The court based in the town of Esplugues de Llobregat near Barcelona said that Shakira will face six counts of tax fraud. The date for the trial has yet to be set.","<article>

<p>As well as dealing with her looming divorce, Shakira's legal woes include an impending trial on charges of tax fraud.</p>

<p><a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11061399/Shakira-facing-EIGHT-YEARS-jail-12m-tax-fraud.html"">Spanish prosecutors accused Shakira in 2018 of failing to pay 14.5 million euros ($13.9 million) in taxes </a>on income earned between 2012 and 2014. Prosecutors are seeking an eight-year prison sentence and a hefty fine if she is found guilty of tax evasion.</p>

<p><a href=""https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11235625/Shakira-insists-allegations-12m-tax-fraud-against-false.html"">Shakira has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and rejected a deal</a> with authorities to avoid going to trial. Her public relations firm has said that she has already paid all that she owed and an additional 3 million euros ($2.8 million) in interest.</p>

<p>The court based in the town of Esplugues de Llobregat near Barcelona said that Shakira will face six counts of tax fraud. The date for the trial has yet to be set.</p>

Kanye West's Donda Academy basketball team dropped from Scholastic Play By Play Classics amid rapper's anti-Semitism scandal,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11357593/Kanye-Wests-Donda-Academy-basketball-team-dropped-Scholastic-Play-Play-Classics.html,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11357593/Kanye-Wests-Donda-Academy-basketball-team-dropped-Scholastic-Play-Play-Classics.html,2022-10-26T18:04:41+01:00,"The Scholastic Play By Play Classics will no longer be hosting the basketball team from Kanye West 's Donda Academy, in the wake of the rapper's anti-Semitism scandal.

In a statement announcing their decision to remove the team from this season's schedule on Tuesday, the Play By Play Classics said Kanye's recent controversial statements and actions violated the values held by their organization.

However, they did have compassion for the team players, calling them 'hardworking student-athletes' who are now having to suffer the consequences of Kanye's actions.

'In light of recent anti-Semitic statements by Kanye West, we will no longer be hosting Donda Academy at this year's Play-By-Play Classics events, including the Kentucky Play-By-Play Classic scheduled for December 11, 2022 at Freedom Hall in Louisville, KY.

'Kanye's words and actions violate our values as a company and a country, and what we seek to ensure at all of our events - a spirit of diversity, sportsmanship, inclusion, equity, and mutual respect.

'While we are firm in our reasoning for this decision, it does not diminish our heartache and regret for Donda's hardworking student-athletes who will lose out the most as a result of Kanye's actions. By all accounts, they are exemplary group of young men. Unfortunately, we cannot in good conscience host an organization founded and directed by Mr. West at our events.'

The organization also provided an updated schedule for the Kentucky Play-By-Play Classic on December 11, with the Donda Academy noticeably absent from the games.

The Donda Doves, the name of the Donda Academy's basketball team, has five-star guards Robert Dillingham and AJ Johnson and several nationally-ranked players on their roster, according to TMZ.

The Scholastic Play By Play has a number of notable alumni, including LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and the late Kobe Bryant.

It is the latest organization to cut ties with Kanye amid his anti-Semitism scandal, which has also seen his business partnerships with Gap, Balenciaga, and Adidas come to an end.

The rapper sparked global outrage after he tweeted on October 8: 'I'm a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I'm going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE.

'The funny thing is I actually can't be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also ... you guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.'

The rapper was asked by Piers Morgan on Wednesday if he regretted the tweet and he said: 'No - absolutely not, absolutely not ... I fought fire with fire - I'm not here to get hosed down - that's a different type of freedom fighter.'

He later clarified: 'I will say I'm sorry for the people that I hurt. I feel like I cause hurt and confusion, and I'm sorry for the families of the people that had nothing to do with the trauma that I had been through and that I use my platform where you say, ""Hurt people hurt people,"" and I was hurt.'

On Saturday, anti-Semitic banners reading, 'Kanye is right about the Jews,' were hung from a Los Angeles freeway following the rapper declaring war against Jewish people earlier this month.

A group of about five people from the Goyim Defense League, a group that spreads conspiracy theories about Jews, gathered in hats and masks while hovering around a series of anti-Semitic banners on the 405 freeway.

Group members were seen tossing up the Nazi salute as drivers read the signs: 'Honk if you know... Kayne is right about the Jews... GOYIM TV.TV. REV 3:9, John 8:44.'

A number of celebrities reacted in outrage to photos of the racist display on social media.

His ex-wife Kim Kardashian finally broke her silence on the matter on Monday, tweeting: 'Hate speech is never OK or excusable. I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end.'","<article>

"Shirley Ballas will NOT quit Strictly: Head judge, 62, remains defiant after fans accused her of being sexist for backing male contestant Richie Anderson over songstress Fleur East",https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11304997/Shirley-Ballas-remains-defiant-fans-accused-sexist.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490,https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11304997/Shirley-Ballas-remains-defiant-fans-accused-sexist.html,2022-10-11T22:13:17+01:00,"Under-fire Shirley Ballas has defiantly insisted she will not quit her job as Strictly’s head judge after fans accused her of being sexist.

Twitter trolls called for her to be sacked after she backed male contestant Richie Anderson over female star Fleur East following the show’s Sunday dance-off.

Miss East, 34, was saved by the three other judges but Mrs Ballas said she would have voted for Radio 2 star Anderson, who performed dressed as a meerkat.

She has also come under attack for flirty comments about male contestants after she described Will Mellor as ‘easy on the eye’.

In 2019 she told Emmerdale’s Kelvin Fletcher: ‘You sent my temperature through the roof.’

But friends of the ballroom champion insisted today she will not allow trolls to force her out of a job she loves.

They also pointed out that last Saturday Mrs Ballas’s average score for the seven women was 7.2 out of ten while for men it was 6.7 which included her giving the show’s youngest star Molly Rainford, 21, a nine out of ten.

One told the Daily Mail: ‘There is no way that Shirley is going to let the trolls win this, she has absolutely no plans to leave Strictly.

‘While these people are entitled to their opinion, she isn’t sexist and takes great pride in being the head judge and feels that the contestants deserve her to be fair, which she is.

‘And as for those comments to handsome men, Shirley is on an entertainment show. She is there to make sure the viewers enjoy what they are watching, it really is as simple as that.’ The star, who replaced Len Goodman on the Strictly panel in 2017, revealed today that some of the trolls had got in touch to say sorry after their messages to her.

She tweeted: ‘I have received many apologies over the weekend regarding hurtful messages I’ve received on social media. All apologies are accepted and from now on let’s all respect each other and enjoy the show. Love to you all.’

The BBC refused to comment on whether Mrs Ballas had been spoken to by any of the show’s bosses in relation to the accusations she is sexist. But it is understood the BBC are fully behind her.

Mrs Ballas was accused by Strictly fans of being unable to ‘celebrate the young, female celebrities’ and ‘felt threatened by’ and was ‘overly critical’ of attractive women dancers.

One viewer wrote: ‘Sexist Shirley would rather save men darting around in animal costumes than the technically skilled and beautiful dancer Fleur?’

Mrs Ballas has repeatedly spoken out about how she has been the victim of trolling since joining Strictly.

In 2020 after sending Good Morning Britain’s Ranvir Singh home, she said: ‘When it starts getting into talking about putting you in a coffin, or saying horrible things about you, or saying the lowest of the low words you can use for a female…

‘I guess I’m a little sensitive to that because all my life I’d heard that so I just don’t think that’s necessary.’

Last week she revealed the harrowing bullying that takes place in the ballroom industry.

She told The Mail on Sunday’s You magazine: ‘In our industry there are men at the top who are bullies, who like to control everything that goes on. They don’t like successful women, or women who have a voice or women who try to speak for other people.’","<article>

<p>‘While these people are entitled to their opinion, she isn’t sexist and takes great pride in being the head judge and feels that the contestants deserve her to be fair, which she is.</p>

<p>‘And as for those comments to handsome men, Shirley is on an entertainment show. She is there to make sure the viewers enjoy what they are watching, it really is as simple as that.’ The star, who replaced Len Goodman on the Strictly panel in 2017, revealed today that some of the trolls had got in touch to say sorry after their messages to her.</p>

<p>She tweeted: ‘I have received many apologies over the weekend regarding hurtful messages I’ve received on social media. All apologies are accepted and from now on let’s all respect each other and enjoy the show. Love to you all.’</p>

<p>The BBC refused to comment on whether Mrs Ballas had been spoken to by any of the show’s bosses in relation to the accusations she is sexist. But it is understood the BBC are fully behind her.</p>

<p>Mrs Ballas was accused by Strictly fans of being unable to ‘celebrate the young, female celebrities’ and ‘felt threatened by’ and was ‘overly critical’ of attractive women dancers.</p>

<p>One viewer wrote: ‘Sexist Shirley would rather save men darting around in animal costumes than the technically skilled and beautiful dancer Fleur?’</p>

<p>Mrs Ballas has repeatedly spoken out about how she has been the victim of trolling since joining Strictly.</p>

<p>In 2020 after sending Good Morning Britain’s Ranvir Singh home, she said: ‘When it starts getting into talking about putting you in a coffin, or saying horrible things about you, or saying the lowest of the low words you can use for a female…</p>

<p>‘I guess I’m a little sensitive to that because all my life I’d heard that so I just don’t think that’s necessary.’</p>

<p>Last week she revealed the harrowing bullying that takes place in the ballroom industry.</p>

<p>She told The Mail on Sunday’s You magazine: ‘In our industry there are men at the top who are bullies, who like to control everything that goes on. They don’t like successful women, or women who have a voice or women who try to speak for other people.’</p>
