Alexander Zverev was defeated by a brutal Jannik Sinner in the Paris Masters final, bringing one win away from regaining the top spot in the world.

World number three Zverev, who was listless throughout, won by Italy’s Sinner 6 to win 6-1.

Sinner, the champion of the Australian Open and Wimbledon, has won 25 straight games on indoor hard courts.

In the Sunday final, he will face Felix Auger-Aliassime, who will succeed Carlos Alcaraz in the top spot.

The 24-year-old said, “I’m very happy for Felix because he’s one of the nicest guys we have on tour.”

Six days prior, Sinner defeated Zverev in a fiercely contested final in Vienna, but the German was nowhere near as talented in Paris.

Zverev looked worn out from the start despite saving two match points in the lengthy quarter-final defeat of Daniil Medvedev on Friday.

Within 30 minutes, he lost the opening set, didn’t hold serve until the first game of the second, and had to save a break point as a result.

Sinner, however, was unstoppable, hitting eight aces and winning 90% of first-serve points without a single break point.

When he faces Auger-Aliassime, who defeated Alexander Bublik 7-6 (7-3) 6-4, he will compete for a fifth title of the year.

We have a stronger love than we ever could have imagined. We appreciate you so much for your messages. Time to jump into the “baby bubble.”

Fellow Love Islanders flooded the comments with congratulatory messages. Kaz Crossley wrote, “Crying” along with several heart emojis. Tasha Ghouri also wrote: “Congratulations angel”.

She announced the birth in a fun video that she posted to social media the day after. She is filmed rubbing and patting her baby bump in the video, continuing until the final clip, in which she is seen holding the baby. Happy Halloween everyone, she wrote in the title. That’s the question, “Trick or Treat”?

Again, she was met with congratulatory messages from several Love Islanders, including Tom Clare, Molly Smith and Liberty Poole. Other celebrities also congratulated her, including Charlotte Crosby, who said: “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh this video was just such an unexpected surprise.”

Georgia announced she was pregnant in April, just 10 months after she met her boyfriend Jack. At the time, she told The Mirror: “Anyone who knows us knows how strong we are, and how happy we make each other. We both definitely wanted children, and while some may say it feels too soon, we know that this is amazing news and we couldn’t be happier.”

The birth is not the only brilliant thing to happen or Georgia this month. She was also awarded an MBE for her services to campaigning for better legislation tackling violence against women. She is the first Love Island to get the honour.

Georgia described being appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire by Prince William at Windsor Castle in an earlier statement about her MBE.

“I’m really appreciative, and I’m going to be 100% more aggressive with my campaigning.” And given that I will be given this responsibility, it will be something that will really motivate me to continue to inspire change for women everywhere.

“I’m thrilled,” I thought. Simply put, I was unaware of how magical the occasion would be. I was so happy to learn that Prince William was the one.

I had really found when I was receiving the award, that he had taken such a genuine interest in everything I’d done, had been following my story, and that really meant a lot to me.

Morrissey cancels more concerts just weeks after shock death threat

After suffering from “extreme exhaustion,” music legend Morrissey was forced to cancel two concert performances just weeks after The Smiths’ frontman was threatened with death.

Morrissey has had to cancel two concert performances after suffering from ‘extreme exhaustion’. The music legend, 66, was scheduled to play at the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City on October 31 before taking to the stage at the Auditorio Telmex in Guadalajara but both dates have now been pulled.

In a statement posted to Instagram, concert promoter OSECA said: “We are informing the public in Mexico City and Guadalajara that, due to the artist’s extreme exhaustion, Morrissey’s concerts scheduled for October 31st at the Palacio de los Deportes and November 4th at the Auditorio Telmex have been cancelled.”

The promoter then reassured fans that they will be able to receive a full refund, as the statement continued: “If you made your purchase online, the refund will be automatically credited to the card you used to purchase your tickets, according to the processing times established by your bank.

You can request a refund starting November 7th at the same location where you made the purchase if it was made using Ticketmaster points or the box office.

The former Smiths frontman has also been forced to reschedule performances in recent years. The singer was scheduled to perform in Connecticut and Massachusetts in September, but he was forced to resign due to a “credible threat on his life” situation.

There was a real threat to Morrissey’s life in recent days, the statement read. Tonight’s Foxwoods engagement has been canceled out of a lot of caution for the safety of both the artist and the audience. Thank you for your understanding.

The singer’s official Facebook page published a follow-up statement that read, “The upcoming shows this weekend at Foxwoods and MGM Music Hall have been cancelled due to recent events and out of an abundance of caution for the safety of both the artist and the band.” At the time of purchase, all tickets will be refunded in its entirety. Thank you for your understanding.

Fans flooded the comment section with support and expressed their sadness over the cancellation. One wrote: “Sad the show is cancelled. Sad this is happening to Moz. Sad at the state of the world.”

I’m so happy I saw him last fall. It was a fantastic show. My man should be left alone. Who would want to cause such harm to Moz’s man? Another plus, “as gentle as they come” is “another.” Sorry to hear that. Glad I saw him at Radio City Hall on September 16, 25, and he gave a fantastic performance. Safety is crucial.

The singer’s arrest and charge of making threats toward her on the social media app Blue Sky came after a 26-year-old man from Ottawa was detained and charged with doing so.

Morrissey continued to perform at Ottawa’s CityFolk festival despite the threat. The accused man has posted bail and is currently being held under strict house rules in Washington, DC. Morrissey’s response to the cancellation was a precautionary measure, but it’s not clear whether it was one of additional threats.

Strictly’s Nikita Kuzmin and girlfriend share cosy snap amid ‘curse’ comments

Nikita Kuzmin, a professional wrestler, and Lauren Jaine, his girlfriend, have a sweet snap.

Lauren Jaine and Nikita Kuzmin, the couple’s girlfriend, spent the evening making jack-o’-lanterns, and they certainly had a spooky Halloween.

The Strictly Come Dancing professional posted a collection of photographs showing himself posing alongside Lauren and their carved creations on Instagram.

As he cuddled up to Lauren, who beamed admirably at the camera, Nikita appeared content.

Who do you believe carved which pumpkin in your first experience? The images, which Nikita wrote beneath, quickly received a lot of responses.

The adorable photographs follow Lauren releasing a public message addressing remarks about a potential ‘curse’ involving the professional dancer and Amber Davies, reports Wales Online.

She pretended to be browsing social media while saying, “Me watching all the cute tiktoks of all the strictly couples,” in a TikTok clip.

She then expressed her shock at those who hoped the “cure” would occur. She urged viewers to show respect to their real-life partners and allow them to have a positive experience with the show.

Other people who raise the issue of “badges” include Lauren. Amber revealed that she speaks to Nikita’s girlfriend more frequently than he does.

“I adore Lauren so much, Nikita’s girlfriend.” She receives constant text messages. She told The Sun, “Every day, every day.”

“Lauren spends more time with me than her fella,” she said. She actually entered my dressing room the day before going to see Nikita. She belongs to me.

Unfortunately, Nikita and Amber were forced to compete against Lauren Oakley and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink in the feared dance-off last week. The quartet, who were saved by all four judges, will perform the Viennese Waltz to “I See Red” by Everybody Loves an Outlaw this week.

Reflecting on their dance-off experience on It Takes Two, Amber confessed: “I just felt awful that it was us that had to be a part of them being knocked out.

“I wasn’t sad because we were in the dance off, I was sad because I love him so much, and I love Lauren Oakley. Them as a team were amazing, and it’s just the worst feeling in the world.”

Mrs Hinch candidly opens up on ‘abusive trolling’ as she addresses ‘lies’ about husband

Sophie Hinchcliffe, a cleaning influencer, has spoken out about the “abusive” online bullying she is facing and criticized the lies that people have allegedly said about her husband.

Sophie Hinchcliffe has opened up about the ‘abusive’ trolling she faces online. The influencer, who is known to her fans as Mrs Hinch, has made a career out of her passion for cleaning and has regularly offered up her tips on This Morning and via a series of bestselling books.

But the star, 35, who boasts five million followers on Instagram, has admitted that the backlash she receives from people online can be so ‘frustrating,’ even though she appreciates that that sort of thing often does come with the job.

She said: “I will never understand how cleaning your home can cause such offence. Why are people so angry? There’s a lot worse going on out there. It’s hard for me to understand why [trolls] do it and it’s frustrating, because you want to say: ‘That’s lies!’ But I just shut it off. I’m not saying it’s OK, because it’s wrong to accept what can feel abusive, but it comes with the job.’

Sophie, who has Ronnie, five, Lennie, three, and nine-month-old Vinnie with her husband, also spoke out against the notion that her husband is “not a hard worker” and claimed nothing could be further from the truth. She has been married to sales manager Jamie Hinchcliffe since 2018.

She continued, “People accuse him of not working hard, but they’ve got it so wrong,” she continued in an interview with The Sun. James is “she called her” rock” and said he is “so grateful” that he spends time with his kids every day.

The social media star is also known for her friendship with presenter Stacey Solomon, but they haven’t been seen on screen together since she appeared with the former X Factor contestant on an episode of Sort Your Life Out more than two years ago.

An insider recently discussed the careers of the two women and noted that Stacey made it possible for her to establish her own lifestyle brands after making a friend with Mrs. Hinch. Stacey is referred to as a very business-savvy woman, according to the source. She works hard, but she always succeeds in her goals.

For Sophie, it hasn’t been the easiest of years as she previously told of how she was “in the thick of it” as she secured a doctor’s appointment for baby Vinnie after worries he had “either colic or even silent reflux.” Vinnie’s illness came soon after Mrs Hinch was hospitalised herself with a blood clot in her groin just three weeks after she gave birth to him.

All this followed the death of her beloved dad, Alan, on April 25 last year – and as the anniversary of his death came Mrs Hinch admitted she was struggling without him.

She captioned her Instagram post, “And just like that, it’s April.” She then lamented, “A month, I will never see the same way again,” before adding, “As long as I can,” before adding, “As long as I can.”

The Essexian continued, “Life isn’t the same anymore, Dad.” Every day, I check for your signs, but that is not enough. Every day I long for you. Time doesn’t make things easier; rather, it shows me more of what you’re missing.

“I just want to sit with you, I want to make you a cup of coffee, I want to hold Vinnie in my arms, I want to read Ronnie’s school report, help you order her Mother’s Day flowers, and then spend the day together in the workshop, living out the dream we have just begun,” I said. Then, regrettably, Sophie said, “I’ve never needed you so much, Dad, and things are difficult right now.” “Bubber x”
