Arthur Collins, Ferne McCann’s ex, has been reportedly caught getting a suspected steroid injection in jail.
Ferne McCann’s ex, Arthur Collins, has been caught getting a suspected steroid injection in jail, according to reports. The 32-year-old, who shares daughter Sunday, six, with TOWIE star, Ferne, 34, is serving a 20-year sentence for hurling acid inside a London nightclub – leaving 16 people with chemical burns and three temporarily blinded.
This week, the Mirror reported that Collins has been moved to a tougher jail after being probed over fears he was plotting to smuggle drugs into Cat C HMP The Mount using drones. In a video published yesterday – reportedly taken from The Mount on a phone smuggled into his cell – the dad-of-one can be seen with his top off, wearing a pair of tracksuit bottoms and appears to receive a jab in his buttock from another prisoner.

What are you doing, bruv, in the The Sun clip? Collins is asked. by another person before saying “Injecting” in response. As his pal jokes, “You think you’re big or what?” Collins appears to be laughing as he laughs.
After the body-building drug and a phone used to record video in his cell, Collins could face disciplinary action.

According to a source, Collins has been in trouble constantly and doesn’t seem to care. He behaves as though he controls the roost and likes the big “I am.”
Prison chiefs launched an investigation over suspicions that dealers were flooding the Mount with drugs using drones. Concerns were raised that Collins had masterminded the plot in the Herts prison. No police investigation was carried out, but the Mirror revealed that Fern’s ex has been moved to a tougher jail.
Collins has been the subject of a significant internal prison investigation, according to a source. There was concern that drug dealers had allegedly pumped drugs into HMP The Mount using drones. The prospect of a drug tampering with tens of thousands of pounds entering the jail is a great concern.
Because the situation has been handled internally, the police have not been called in. Collins has since been moved to a much stricter prison.
During an Easter weekend night out in Dalston, East London, on April 17, 2017, Collins launched his acid attack on a crowded dance floor at the Mangle nightclub.
After hearing a group of men plotting to spike a woman’s drink, he claimed he had accidentally thrown the substance.
He allegedly threw away a container he thought was a date-rape drug after picking it up. However, a jury found him guilty of carrying out the acid attack that caused a furious evacuation and a significant emergency response.
He was found guilty of nine counts of actual bodily harm and five counts of grievous bodily harm with intent.
The HM Inspectorate of Prisons has received a request to comment on this story from The Mirror.
After battling “dark days” for two years with injuries, Manchester City defender John Stones says he now feels better.
Before being forced off with a thigh injury, centre-back Stones last played for City in February, playing only eight minutes in the Champions League play-off defeat against Real Madrid.
After making City’s 27-man squad for the Club World Cup in the United States, the 31-year-old claims to be “back fit” and is “back in shape.”
Stones said, “It’s difficult when you’re injured; you almost work longer and more, so I know the guys have had such a long season mentally and physically. It’s been challenging mentally for me to deal with the wounds and the procedure.
“But now I’ve put that behind me and used this as a mini-introduction before the new year and another trophy to hopefully win and get some game time.”
“I’ve been back in training for a few weeks, and it’s been great.” “I’m trying to do extra running if I need to, to try and raise those levels. Even those tiny, incredibly minor details have changed a lot.
You can occasionally feel alone, it’s said.
Stones joined City from Everton for £47.50 in 2009 and has spent nine seasons there.
He has won six Premier League titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, and four League Cups, while also being the 83rd England cap. He has also won six of those titles.
Despite having 277 games played for his club, he only managed 13 starts last season, six of which were Premier League.
We all feel things, and we want to get back as quickly as possible, in my opinion. Sometimes you try to push too soon, he said, and that might be that.
Being around them and having their support is what I believe to be the most important aspect of my family’s assistance.
Being in a team sport and not training with the team when you run out on the pitch during your rehab, you can feel very lonely at times when you’re training alone. This is the challenging part of it.
According to Transfermarkt, Stones has missed 164 days and 33 games as a result of his foot, hamstring, and thigh injuries over the last two campaigns.
Stones said, “There have been times where you believe you’ve been giving it your all, you dedicate your entire life to football, especially how I approach or conduct my life,” Stones said, “I give everything” to be here or ready to play games.
Everyone has experienced them, and I wonder, “Why is this happening? ” ‘. You would have preferred a different course of action, but as I already said, there are many things to consider.
What did we do in those circumstances, fight or give up, given that we have all been through various upbringings and difficulties in life?
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) president and CEO Dana White confirmed that mixed martial arts (MMA) legend Jon Jones has retired, and interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall has been elevated to the title holder.
During a press conference on Saturday in Azerbaijan where UFC Fight Night was held, Jon Jones called us last night and called us.
Jon Jones has become a retired person. The UFC’s heavyweight champion is Tom Aspinall.
Jones, who turns 38 on July 19, won the UFC titles at light heavyweight and heavyweight, putting together a 28-point win-loss record with 11 total knockout victories (TKOs). When Jones got hurt, he was in line for a highly anticipated unification fight with Aspinall, 32, who became the interim heavyweight champion of the UFC in November 2023.
After White’s announcement, Englishman Aspinall posted a message on Instagram with a win-loss record of 15-3 in MMA, 11 TKOs, and 8-1 in UFC.
“For you fans,” Aspinall, 32, wrote, “It’s time to get this heavyweight division going.” “An active, undisputed champion.”

The last fight between Jones and Stipe Miocic was on November 16, 2024, when he defeated him by a third-round TKO. Since missing a fight with Daniel Cormier on July 29, 2017, Jones has won six straight fights.
Jones’ comments on Thursday when he appeared on the “Full Send” podcast were counteracted by White’s announcement.
According to numerous media reports, Jones stated on the podcast, “I don’t want to say that I’m retired because fighting is in my blood.” I have no desire to fight right now. When the itch comes back, and if it does, then I’ll do it with all of my heart, to the best of my ability, and I’ve been doing it at a very high level my entire life.
Jones won the 205-pound title with victory over Mauricio Rua, making him the youngest UFC champion at age 23 and having a chequered history outside of the octagon. Jones, who is 16-0 in UFC title fights, has had legal issues as well as a year-long suspension in 2016 for testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs, which he disputes.
On November 17, 2024, Jon Jones defeated Stipe Miocic in the UFC 309 fight in New York, according to US President Donald Trump.
In Baku, Rountree Jr. descends Hill.
In the main event of the Fight Night, former UFC light heavyweight champion Khalil Rountree Jr. defeated Jamahal Hill 49-46, 50-45, and 50-45, respectively.
As long as he maintains his light heavyweight title defense, Rountree Jr is capable of using leg kicks and downing the former light heavyweight champion on numerous occasions. He has a 15-6 win-loss record.
According to Rountree, “I didn’t enter here underestimating Jamaal.”
Hill is attempting to clinch his first victory since 2023 with a record of 12-4 MMA victories.
For his first victory since July 2022, hometown lightweight Rafael Fiziev (13-4 win-loss in MMA) won the co-main event by unanimous decision to face Ignacio Bahamondes 30-27, 30-27, 30-27, 30-27. It was Fiziev’s striking prowess that made the difference, as it was Bahamondes’ first defeat in MMA since August 2023 (17-6 win-loss). Since he entered the fight ranked 11th  in the division, Fiziev does not prefer who he fights next.
With a split decision of 29-28, 28-29, and 29-28, heavyweight Curtis Blaydes outperformed debutant Rizvan Kuniev. After falling to UFC interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall last July at UFC 304, Blades (19-5 win-loss in MMA) bounced back.
Nazim Sadykhov, a lightweight champion in one of the most explosive UFC fights in recent memory, overcame Nikolas Motta’s Herculean effort to earn a late second-round TKO at 4:17. Before Sadykhov turned things around in the second round, the fight was almost over thanks to a number of Motta strikes. Sadykhov (11-1-1 win-loss MMA) has won 11 of his past 13 fights, securing the victory with a 75-punch combo. Motta lost his first fight with a win-loss record since June 2023.

Dame Deborah James’ widower is said to have found love again, three years after the death of his wife. Prior to her sad death in June 2022, the podcast host and campaigner had encouraged Sebastien Bowen to “move on.”
Now, it’s claimed that he has found love with a mystery woman and was seen enjoying a loved-up date in the scorching weather as the UK experienced a heatwave, with temperatures hitting over 30 degrees. Deborah, who was just 40 at the time of her death from incurable bowel cancer, made it no secret that she wanted her husband to start dating again.
Sebastian was seen last week walking hand in hand with a mystery woman along the River Thames in London. The pair are said to have dined at The River Cafe in the swanky area of Hammersmith, west London, during their romantic day out.

As the temperatures across the country reached new highs, Sebastian kept his look very casual in a blue shirt, with his top buttons undone, while rocking a pair of chino trousers and trainers. Meanwhile, his new love interest looked sensational in a striking red dress, which was cut off above the knee.
Her brunette hair flowed freely in the gentle waterfront breeze as she wore a pair of sunglasses to protect her eyes from the blistering sun. The pair were seen walking with their arms wrapped around one another while gazing lovingly at each other. “They looked like they were very much in love,” a source told the Daily Mail.

They went on to add: “It was very sweet. For anyone who was inspired by Dame Deborah’s attitude to life, it was really heartening to see her husband looking happy again.”
Last year, it was reported that Sebastian had started looking for love again, with sources saying he was taking things “very slowly.” An insider went on to say: “Deborah is going to be a tough act to follow, as they had a fantastic marriage and made a great couple. But Seb feels the time has come for him to move on, as Deborah wanted him to.”

Deborah, who was known to millions as Bowelbabe on social media, raised over £11million for cancer research and documented her journey with her online followers. The campaigner, who was known for her honesty while battling the heartbreaking disease, spoke openly about her husband moving on.
Speaking on the BBC Radio 5 Live show, You, Me And The Big C, she described her widower as a “very eligible bachelor” and knew he would have attention from other women following her death.
“I have given him strict instructions,” Dame Deborah said. She went on to add: “I want him to move on. He’s a handsome man, I’m like, ‘Don’t be taken for a ride, don’t marry a bimbo, find someone else who can make you laugh like we did.” But Dame Deborah also joked that she had a list of people she didn’t want Sebastian to date.

“I would do my damned hardest to haunt him,” she joked. Sebastian and Deborah met in 2005 before going on to marry three years later in 2008 and welcomed two children. And it appears that he has the blessing from her family when it comes to finding love again.
“Deborah will be a hard act to follow but he has our blessing,” her mum Heather said in 2023.
Hours after the United States attacked important Iranian nuclear sites, Iran launched a string of missile attacks against Israel.
Shortly after the Israeli military reported incoming Iranian missiles and activated air defenses, loud explosions were audible in coastal Tel Aviv and Jerusalem on Sunday.
Rescue organizations and media reports claimed at least 20 people had been hurt when sirens rang in Israeli cities.
Local authorities said emergency services were heading to an “accident site” in an area close to the northern port of Haifa, according to Israeli police reports “the fall of weapon fragments.”
Israel’s three cities, Beersheba, Haifa, and Tel Aviv, have been frequently targeted by Iran.
According to official figures, 25 people have died and at least 50 impacts have been officially acknowledged nationwide since the war started on June 13 in Israel, despite strict military censorship laws that apply to reporting on missile strikes.
After President Donald Trump claimed that the US attacks “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear facilities at Isfahan, Fordow, and Natanz, Iran has warned of “everlasting consequences.”
