Tries: O’Brien, O’Dowd, Nic a Bhaird Con: McGrath, Deely, McGillivray,
Scotland (14) 21
Ireland made it through a difficult start to defeat Scotland and kick off their impressive Women’s Rugby World Cup preparations.
Through Lisa Thomson and Lucia Scott tries, Scotland jumped out to an early 14-0 lead in Cork after losing to Italy last week.
However, after Scotland’s hooker Lana Skeldon was injured on the half-hour mark, Sabdbh McGrath and Meabh Deely scored to leave Ireland with just two points at half-time.
Ireland’s second half dominance was sustained for extended periods of time, with debutant Nancy Gillivray setting up Ireland’s third goal.
Ireland rallied in the closing stages through Deirbhile Nic a Bhaird and Niamh O’Dowd, but Scotland responded with a strong solo effort from Emma Orr.

A Place in the Sun presenter Laura Hamilton has publicly addressed an online remark claiming she was “too old” to wear a bikini, responding with a defiant post on social media.
The 43‑year‑old revealed earlier this week that she had read the comment on one of her recent Instagram posts. Instead of ignoring it, Hamilton used the opportunity to speak out about body confidence and ageism.
She shared a new photo showing herself sitting poolside in a blue and white bikini, along with a video of her relaxing on a day-bed with her daughter. It comes after the A Place In The Sun presenter shared an ‘exciting’ update as fans ‘congratulated’ the star.

She posed the question, “Who decides when we’re too old for anything?” She continued, saying, “I recently read a comment that I was too old to wear a bikini, and it really made me stop and think.” However, I then realized that my life is too precious to be concerned about what other people think.
Hamilton claimed that the comment was unrelated to her choice to wear the swimsuit that day. She wrote, “Today I’m wearing a swimsuit, not because of the comment I read, but because I wanted to and feel at ease in it.”
No matter our age or whether we choose to wear a swimsuit or a bikini, she said, “We all have days when we feel self-conscious, but we deserve to enjoy the sunshine, the beach, the pool, whatever makes us happy.” “!

She said, “Live your life and feel good in your own skin,” as she finished her post.
Fans praised Hamilton’s self-assurance and refusal to be let down in the comments section, which was flooded with support messages.
You look incredible, and you inspire women everywhere, according to a follower. When you look and feel fantastic, nothing else matters.
Another person said, “Ignore the trolls.” You’re gorgeous, confident, and demonstrate that grace and style are unrestricted to men.

“Thank you for speaking up,” added a third person. You’ve just given me the confidence to stop caring because I’m in my 40s and frequently feel judged for what I wear.
Others criticized Laura’s statement as being focused solely on appearance and rejecting outdated notions of what women can and cannot do as they age.
With Jasmine Harman joining A Place In The Sun since 2004, Laura has come a long way and is now the program’s second-longest presenter.
However, after more than ten years, viewers may wonder if Laura is considering relocating. When questioned about her potential role on the program, Laura responded, “I’ve been working in the television and industry for a very long time.
Laura has spent more than ten years working on A Place in the Sun.
” Since I was 18! I started presenting when I was 22 years old, and I’m excited to be continuing my filming, directing with A Place in the Sun, and creating new content for real estate. I am actively involved in property management, which I don’t do in any way related to TV.
Laura explained that the team has had ample time to understand the needs of the house hunters because the show airs an hour each weekday and is only shown for an hour each weekday.
She continued, “I guess they feel like they know us because Channel 4 has the second longest-running program.”
“So people feel comfortable around us and like we know who we are.” It’s fantastic for me, and it’s perfect! A little bit of travel, some people, and some property”!
Kyren Wilson of England put an end to Zhao Xintong’s 26-match winning streak and gave way to Ali Carter’s Shanghai Masters final.
Zhao has a 26-match winning streak that included the Crucible Championships in May after losing to Shaun Murphy at the UK Championships in November.
However, Zhao surrendered a 5-4 lead in the evening session to Wilson, who won six frames straight for a 10-5 victory in his first tournament since his triumph in Sheffield.
The 33-year-old produced breaks of 70, 101, and 51 during the second half of a strong performance.
In the final, Wilson will face fellow Englishman Carter, who defeated Judd Trump for his first major career title, in a match that he defeated in the semi-finals.
In the other semi-final, Carter defeated Mark Selby 10-6 to reach the final. Mark Allen withdrew at the end of the tournament for personal reasons.

Pop singer Becky Hill treated her fans to a brief insight into her lavish hen party after posting a series of snaps on social media. The singer, 31, who is set to wed her long time boyfriend Charlie Gardner later this summer, flew her friends out to Italy for the special occasion.
The group enjoyed Lake Como’s sights. The Wish You Well actress poses in a white bikini top on a beach and sipping two cocktails in one photo. A “bride” veil was worn to complete her look.
Becky credited a recent gig for allowing her to afford the luxury trip to Italy. This comes after Jeremy Vine reveals what will happen if Joey Barton fails to pay staggering legal bill.

She captioned each of her numerous photos with the caption “I got a gig through that paid for my hen do in Lake Como..!” As we traveled to Snowdonia, it’s safe to say that the girls were very happy.
She continued, “Lucky for life, lucky for friends, lucky for work, and for love.” She poses on a boat once more in a different photo as she demonstrates her admirable figure in a white outfit.
She is seen fanning herself with a fan with the phrase “better off with you” emblazoned on it as she walks away from the camera. And this was done in honor of Better Off Without You, her song.

Becky posted a number of snaps of her friends having fun with her life that made her smile more than ever.
It took no more than a minute for her post to be live before it was overflowing with congratulations. Love this hope you had the best time, radio personality Harriet Rose wrote.
A fan commented, “Looks like you had a fantastic time!” The upcoming chapter will be fantastic. “Hope you had the best time queen,” one of the third phrases added.
In January 2022, Charlie and Becky Hill tied the knot.
Due to her busy schedule, the singer was forced to postpone her wedding by a year. After he proposed to the star while on vacation in the Maldives, the couple made their engagement announcement in January 2022.
Becky has remained unafraid of finding “the one” in Charlie, even writing a song in his honor called Man of My Dreams.
The singer stated at the time, “My partner is now a festival booker and used to be a trance DJ.” He has assisted in both bringing the album to life and providing me with inspiration for writing the album.
