Beau Greaves, a darts legend, won the most recent two matches in Wigan on Saturday, extending her remarkable winning streak to 72 matches.
The Doncaster-born 21-year-old made the announcement on Friday that she would compete in the PDC World Championship after defeating Luke Littler in the World Youth Championship semi-finals.
The PDC Women’s Series came to a close with a run of four tournaments over two days, two on Saturday and two on Sunday, with her focus returning to the women’s game this weekend.
In both of Saturday’s finals, Greaves defeated Fallon Sherrock 5-4, extending her winning streak to 11 straight.
With the PDC Women’s Series double on Saturday, she has already won 16 of her past 22 matches.
Sherrock and Lisa Ashton, who are both three-time WDF women’s world champions, will compete in the PDC World Championships, which will take place on December 11 at London’s Alexandra Palace.
In the youth final at Minehead later in the month, she will face defending champion Gian van Veen of the Netherlands in the PDC’s Grand Slam in Wolverhampton.
The York family will have to navigate a completely different reality from the one they’re used to, from calling themselves different to coming under new names.
Prince Andrew’s most recent bombshell announcement won’t just affect the former Duke. Also affected will be his ex-wife Ferguson, Sarah, as well as Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
Andrew, 65, will now give up his titles and honors in a shocking decision because his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted child molester, continues to dominate the Royal Family. The former Duke of York has consistently and vehemently refuted claims that he had sex with Virginia Giuffre, a 17-year-old, while supporting her incrimination.
His decision comes just days before Giuffre’s memoir, Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, which references her alleged encounter with Andrew, is published posthumously. On October 21, the book will be available.
The Mirror examines what life in the troubled House of York looks like as the palace navigates the upcoming chapter of what has been dubbed “the Andrew problem.”

Prince Andrew
Prince Andrew was christened Duke of York after his 1986 union with Ferguson, Sarah, a title formerly held by Queen Elizabeth II’s beloved father, King George VI, before ascending to the throne. He has since returned this title along with other royal honors that were given to him.
A senior royal’s alleged discontinuation of a dukedom for more than 100 years is reported here. The Duke of Albany, Queen Victoria’s grandson, was exonerated under the Titles Deprivation Act 1917 for fighting alongside the Germans in the First World War.
Andrew said in a statement last night (Friday, October 18) that the continued accusations against me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family. I’ve made the decision to prioritize my duty to my family and country as I always have. Five years ago, I made the decision to leave the public.
We now feel like I must proceed one step further with His Majesty’s consent. I’ll no longer use my title or the honors that have been mys. I vehemently refute the accusations I have been accused of making.
Prince Andrew claimed to have stopped communicating with Epstein in December 2010 in his now-infamous 2019 Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis. However, it has since been discovered that Andrew informed the scandalous financier Epstein that they would “have to rise above it” in an email from February 28, 2011.
Virginia, the accuser, was mentioned in this exchange, who claimed Epstein had trafficked her when she was a teenager. Additionally, Virginia claimed that Andrew had sex with her when she was 17 years old. Virginia, who passed away in April at the age of 41, has vigorously refuted the accusations made against him.
It’s understood that Andrew’s decision to drop his titles was made in close consultation with both his brother King Charles and William, Prince of Wales. The monarch is said to be “glad” at the outcome.
This finally seems to be the end of it, according to a palace source who spoke to the Express. Everyone in the room can ooh a sigh of relief.
The most recent action comes after Andrew was removed from royal duties in 2022 and withdrew from his responsibilities in 2019.
The late Queen’s infamous favorite son, who has left his duties and titles, will now spend his days living in his lavish Windsor Great Park home, his grace and favor, and ex-wife Ferguson, Sarah.
Ferguson, Sarah
Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, Sarah, formerly Sarah, Duchess of York, will from now on be officially referred to as Ferguson, Sarah, The Telegraph reported. The move will see her relinquishing her title that she had held since her wedding day with her ex-husband Andrew, back in 1986.
Sarah, who recently celebrated her 66th birthday, continued to use the title of duchess and kept a typically close relationship with her ex after their separation in 1992 and divorce in 1996. The former spouses resided in Windsor’s Royal Lodge after their wedding, and Sarah famously once said they were the “happiest divorced couple in the world.”
However, Sarah’s time within the royal family, both during and after her marriage, has included plenty of scandalous moments. In an article penned for The iPaper today, royal commentator Jennie Bond wrote: “The rumours and scandals involving Andrew — and his ex-wife Sarah (now just plain Ferguson, Sarah) — have been swirling around for more than 30 years.
This oddly divorced couple has caused embarrassment and harm to the monarchy, according to Fergie’s topless toe-sucking saga and the far more vile allegations of Andrew’s activities with Epstein. And Andrew correctly recognizes that the ongoing accusations against him distract from the work of the rest of his family, as he correctly identifies in his farewell note.
“And that sprang into the foreground.” The King and his small group of working royals must have found it very troubling to see their meticulously timed engagements repeatedly overshadowed by yet another sleazy story about the ex-Duke.
Multiple charities recently rejected the mother of two because of an email sent to Epstein in 2011 after he was found guilty of prostitution in 2008. Sarah apologized in public about the accusations she had made about him in this conversation and called the sex offender her “supreme friend.”
Eugenie and Beatrice the princesses
Apparently, Andrew’s most recent move won’t have an impact on Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, 37. The Royal Family’s Christmas celebrations will feature the two princesses, who will still be present, and who will continue to hold their titles.
The York sisters, who were previously BBC royal correspondents, must have a strong belief in their innocence, will likely face a difficult road ahead. of their accused father.
Whatever other opinions you might have about Andrew and Sarah, Jennie exclusively told the Mirror. They are brilliant parents and have raised two respectable young women. They will continue to be Princesses and be greeted at gatherings like Sandringham’s Christmas party with the rest of the Royal Family.
Continue reading the article.
They have, however, maintained their loyalty to their parents throughout the entire process. They’ll be there for Andrew and Sarah through this most recent crisis, just as they’ve done in the past. They must believe the innocence protests of their fathers. They couldn’t possibly live with themselves, surely.

Victoria Beckham and her former Spice Girls bandmates will reunite for their first professional collaboration in a decade in a new animated animated film about the band.

Victoria Beckham and her former Spice Girls pals are working on a significant new project. The Spice Girls’ first professional reunion since they took the stage during the closing ceremony of the 2012 Olympic Games, will be the simply-named animated film.
The Spice Girls will feature all five of the original cast members, including Lady Victoria, Geri Horner, Melanie Brown MBE, Melanie Chisholm, Emma Bunton, and Melanie Chisholm, who lend their voices, according to the official IMDb listing.
The Spice Girls are portrayed as superheroes in an animated film, according to the brief description. The girls will reprise their pop star alter egos, including Posh, Ginger, Scary, Sporty, and Baby Spice, but details regarding the plot, format, and release date are still a mystery, according to IMDb’s hush-hush.
This exciting news broke as Victoria, 51, graced the premiere of her three-part Netflix docu-series Victoria Beckham at The Curzon Mayfair in London on 8 October. The fashion mogul and former pop sensation was accompanied by her husband, Sir David Beckham, 50, and their children, except for eldest son Brooklyn Beckham, who is reportedly caught up in a family dispute.
Emma, Geri, and Melanie Chisholm, her ex-boyfriends, also posed together on the red carpet for the premiere. Although Melanie Brown, better known as Mel B, was the only present, she had already sent Victoria a lovely bouquet of flowers.
Melanie had previous work commitments in the US. Despite the other four members reuniting for a UK and Ireland stadium tour in 2019, Victoria hasn’t performed with the Spice Girls since their storied Olympic appearance in London twelve years ago.
Victoria opted out of that tour, but she has since remained committed to the group’s legacy. The first indication that the entire cast could once more collaborate on a successful project is in the IMDb listing.
The animated film’s potential will be a series or a feature film, it is not clear. Following the release of their debut single Wannabe in 1996, The Spice Girls became a household name in the middle of the 1990s. Before Geri left the band in 1998, which led to a formal hiatus, the band sold over 100 million records worldwide.
The band also reunited for a world tour in 2007 and again for their Olympic performance in 2012, which was widely hailed as one of the highlights of the Games. Since then, each member has embarked on individual ventures in music, television, fashion and business while maintaining a close personal bond.
Posh may have in mind this as well, given that Posh may not be the only Spice Girls project. She acknowledged in an interview with Andy Cohen that she has been considering the chart-topping band’s plans for the upcoming year’s celebrations of the three decades that preceded their most recent single, “Wannabe.”
Victoria responded, “It would be tempting, but I really liked the idea of the band playing at the Sphere in Las Vegas. But would you allow me to travel the world? No, I can’t. How talented would the Spice Girls be at the Sphere, in my opinion? The idea of it is so appealing. I mean, I’m not sure if I could even sing, and I’m never that great. Soon, host Andy retorted, “You can sing, babe.”
Victoria’s spokesperson has been in contact with The Mirror for comment.
In the most recent season of Strictly, Alexander Kingston and Johannes Radebe were wed to Hollywood stars, but their union ended in heartache.

Strictly Come Dancing’s Alex Kingston, known for her roles in ER and Doctor Who, has had quite the romantic history. An actress known for her roles in the US medical dramaER and British sci-fi classic Doctor Who, she’s currently lighting up the dance floor with partner Johannes Radebe on the BBC show.
She’s currently married to TV producer Jonathan Stamp after the pair tied the knot in an Italian ceremony in Rome in 2015.
Alex was married to German author Florian Haertel before Jonathan. Unfortunately, Salome and the pair’s marriage wasn’t intended to last. The pair have a daughter. They divorced in 2009, and it came to an end four years later.
However, it’s her first husband who is likely the most well-known of the men she has married. Alex was once married to Hollywood heavyweight Ralph Fiennes, known for his Oscar-nominated roles in Schindler’s List, The English Patient and Conclave, as well as playing Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter and M in the Bond films.
After a 10-year relationship, Alex and the Shakespearean actor tied the knot at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). However, their marriage would be ruined by heartache, and they would eventually divorce in 1997.
She admitted to previously describing their relationship as “like strangers – very fragile.” We assumed that the wedding would bring about the healing of his mother, who was passing away. But, of course, that was absurd.
Ralph allegedly had an affair with his Hamlet co-star, Francesca Annis, who was 18 years older than him and played his mother on stage.
Following this, Alex, who previously admitted to the Standard back in 2012 that she felt “worthless”, ultimately decided to leave Britain behind and flew off to Los Angeles.
She claimed to have been “ridiculous” at the time and that she had “so little self-esteem” when she told the Daily Mail that she believed she would “never find anyone else as good” as her husband.
Alex continued, “Divorce is awful, but it’s something I don’t regret happening to me because it’s changed who I am now.”
Ralph and Francesca were together from 1997 to 2006, but it was alleged that Ralph had an affair with Corneila Crisan, a Romanian singer, according to the Mirror. Speaking to the Standard in 2012 about Ralph, Alex said she no longer felt a “connection to him.”
She continued, “I can’t quite believe I was ever married to him because it’s been so long.”
With the role of Dr. Elizabeth Corday in the well-known medical drama ER, Alex’s move to LA turned out to be a career-defining moment. She aired the program for 12 years.

Linda Robson has opened up about how one of her closest Loose Women friends has vowed to arrange for her to meet one of her celebrity idols before she dies.
Linda has been a key player on the beloved chat show ever since making her first appearance on Loose Women in 2003 as a guest panellist.
However, when she remembered a story from her most recent book, Truth Be Told: Tales from a Baggy Mouth, she recalled the moment she remembered having a strange dream about Elton John.
She recalled the episode from the podcast The Lewis Nicholls Show as she awoke the following morning and thought, “Oh my God! On the Eurostar, Elton John and I had sex. My husband threatened to murder me if he found out. I swear to God that I had never experienced a dream like that before because it was so real.
As she continued the anecdote, she revealed that she had managed to hand Elton a letter detailing their fictional intimate encounter via mutual contact.
She recalled how the pop star responded by saying that because they “made so much noise they chucked us off,” the pop star had responded politely.
She also mentioned that she has never had the opportunity to meet him in person, but a Loose Women colleague has pledged to do so, saying, “Janet [Street-Porter] says she’s going to take me meet him.”
She also made it clear that her Loose Women coworker had gone a step further, saying, “Janet Street-Porter bought me a Dolce &, Gabbana bag that Elton John had purchased her in the south of France years ago.” She continued, “Basically, Elton John bought me a designer bag.”
Linda first saw her acting career explode in the 1970s with a slew of dramas and sitcoms, though she is probably best known for playing Pauline Quirke in Birds of a Feather in the 1990s. She also provided insight into her friendship with Janet Street-Porter.

Linda will make her way back to our screens this evening. She will be hoping to improve on her previous efforts as she makes her second appearance on The Weakest Link, having already tried it on The Weakest Link in 2022.
She is set to battle it out against a host of celebrities, including Danny John-Jules, Helen Flanagan and Tim Vine, with Romesh Ranganathan hosting the show.

Christine McGuinness has revealed that she intends to write a tell-all memoir about her experiences. The model hopes to reveal personal details to her fans.
Christine is no stranger to writing about her life, having previously published an autobiography that hit shelves in 2021. She has now confirmed she’s considering crafting a follow-up book, describing it as a heartfelt tribute to those who have stood by her.
Her initial memoir covered her journey up to the time of publication, chronicling her path to fame and her romance with Take Me Out personality Paddy McGuinness. However, much has changed for the star after her separation from the television host, as well as her navigating her recent autism diagnosis.
Speaking to the Daily Star, Christine shared, “I did an autobiography about four years ago and some big things have happened since then. It would be amazing to do a second one; I can write about what happened next – I love writing.”
In a book, Christine has had plenty to talk about despite going through some significant life changes in the last four years. She continued, “I’ve never written about having autism and ADHD.” That area of my life and other things can be covered in another article.
She’s also expected to reveal details about her recent breakup with husband Paddy and also discuss her recent breakup with his wife. She vows to keep her distance and that she needs to reveal everything about her turbulent past four years.
It’s amazing to be able to write an autobiography, she continued. You must be open and private when doing one. You must accept it. Prior to this interview, Christina discussed her romantic relationship with Paddy, who she had a happy 11-year marriage to.
She admitted to struggling with guilt over the breakup on Celebs Go Dating, but she claimed she had come to the point where “enough was enough.”
She said, “Anyone can make mistakes, but I think the trust was broken,” which suggested Paddy may have been acting improperly. She continued, “I’ll always love him, because I think he’s the only man I’ll ever love,” adding, “I’ll always love him. He’s the father of my children.”
Christine also recently opened up on her diagnosis with Raynaud’s disease, the mum-of-three said she first noticed something was wrong at the beginning of the year when she’d struggled to do up her kids’ uniforms, as her hands unexpectedly seized up.

The former model explained to Mail Online that “when it happens, sometimes I have no choice but to stop what I’m doing until my hands recover, which can be very challenging when I try to balance work commitments and family life.”
