Victoria Beckham shares update on David Beckham after surgery with cheeky recovery video

After having surgery, Sir David Beckham’s wife Victoria Beckham has since returned home and shared a report on the retired football player. Following earlier reports that he was hospitalized, this comes.

David, 50, is seen in a hospital bed with his arm in a sling, according to Victoria, 51, who shared a photo of him this morning. He broke his wrist more than 20 years ago during a football game, according to reports that he had surgery to fix it.

After her post, Victoria has now suggested that he be returning home from the hospital after the apparent procedure. She shared this evening’s video of David posing in front of their kitchen on Instagram.

After revealing that he was in a hospital, Victoria Beckham shared footage of David Beckham, pictured, at home in a sling (@victoriabeckham/instagram) tonight.

At a store with lettuce and cucumbers on top, David is still wearing a sling and bandaging on his arm. As Victoria says in front of the camera, “So this weekend’s vegetable content,” he is seen looking at the produce.

In the clip, Victoria states, “Look – he’s overperforming on the cucumber front.” Before his wife continues to say, “Look at this!,” David appears unimpressed. Then she begins to say, “Are they all from the..?”

Then, David is able to say, “I’m not sure you can say that, darling,” as she is said. However, he is later seen grinning at his wife while holding up one of the cucumbers. As the footage ends, Victoria can be heard laughing.

David’s recovery from an undisclosed health issue was earlier announced by Victoria. He was seen wearing a gown and a sling in a hospital bed, according to her photo. This morning, she wrote, “Get well soon, Daddy.”

Later, she shared a photo that appeared to show him a gift he had been receiving while he was being hospitalized. A bracelet with the words “get well soon” in a message to her husband was featured in the photo.

In her post this morning, Victoria gave no details about why her husband was in a hospital. However, it has since been reported that he recently underwent wrist surgery.

A source informed the Mirror that David had ‘secret’ surgery to repair a broken wrist after learning about the news. Prior to his retirement as a football player, he is said to have suffered the injury during a friendly match against South Africa in 2003.

According to the source, “It had been giving him problems recently, so he wanted to have it fixed.” He was informed at the time that he would soon leave the hospital.

The source also suggested that David “hoped” to arrive in the US in time for Inter Miami’s upcoming game. On Sunday, his team will face his former club Paris Saint-Germain in a match of the FIFA Club World Cup.

Rod Stewart’s Glastonbury set secrets revealed after ‘military style’ build-up

Rod Stewart’s 90-minute set at Worthy Farm on Sunday is said to have cost the rocker £300,000, and he will get another epic Glastonbury Festival performance.

Rod Stewart will perform live at Glastonbury.

As backstage requests go, it’s usually all about the booze, drugs and girls for most rockers. But not so for Sir Rod Stewart.

Taking to the Pyramid stage on Sunday afternoon at Glastonbury for the coveted Legends slot, the star is adopting a slightly less rock ‘n roll approach. In fact, the 80-year-old is taking his trusted personal trainer with him to Worthy Farm to ensure he is in tip-top shape for the show.

With an estimated 100,000 watching him at Worthy Farm – and millions more on the TV – the rocker knows the stakes are high. Especially so after suffering a bad bout of flu which saw him cancel a string of shows in Las Vegas.

According to insiders, Rod has exerted great effort, with one declaring, “He is fully-fit and ready to go.” It was a no-brainer to have them at the festival because his trainer does amazing things.

The actor went to great lengths to make sure the show runs smoothly. The star has been taking vocal rest to make sure his raspy voice is firing on all cylinders, despite swimming lengths in his pool four times per week.

Rod is a chatterbox, but he knows he needs to preserve what is his most valuable asset, his voice, says our mole. “It’s been quite difficult.

Rod’s entire band has been performing at a secret location this week, according to insiders, and Rod is back at his best. Although Rod has promised to deliver a 90-minute set that includes Maggie May, Sailing, and Downtrain Train, the set list is kept a close knit secret.

Three special guests have been pencilled in with the pick of the bunch being Rolling Stones guitarist and old pal Ronnie Wood for an incredible Faces reunion. Sir Rod – who admits he can’t remember playing the festival last in 2002 – may even pay an emotional tribute to Ukraine during the set.

The singer may perform his 1991 anti-war song Rhythm of My Heart, which features an image of an Ukrainian flag, while also residing among refugees from the country in the UK.

It remains to be seen what makes the cut because Rod is adding the finishing touches to the slightly shorter set than his typical Vegas shows, according to a source.

Wife Penny has been a constant observer of the band’s movements during rehearsals. In fact, Stewart’s entire family is fully immersed in the festival spirit.

Three of Rod’s children, including Ruby and Alastair, 19, are camping while the band, Penny, and the band are staying at a £1000-a-night hotel in Bath. The teenager, who had to purchase his own tickets because Glastonbury doesn’t offer any freebies, appears to be following his father when it comes to getting a knee-up.

On Friday morning, he was spotted partying with friends in the festival’s hedonistic Shangri-La neighborhood until 5am. According to a source, “Rod is quite content to let the kids continue their education and is delighted that they are enjoying the festival.”

However, his children are staying at the ultra-lavish Pop-Up Hotel, which is located just outside the festival gates, rather than having to leave for a tent afterwards. One of its 10-person suites, which includes a restaurant, a pool, a full-size swimming pool, and a helipad, costs just under £30, 000 for the duration of the festival.

Although it’s unknown if Sir Rod is paying the tab for the entire Legends performance, he is already paying an incredible £300,000. This includes private jet travel from the US, as well as the arrival of all of his band, who are also using premium economy.

The set and all the necessary equipment must be transported, too. It’s no wonder he doesn’t even touch the sides with his $120,000 in earnings.

He doesn’t mind, says a source, “but it’s such a prestigious opportunity, and he’s running at a big loss.”

Unlike Neil Young who has banned the BBC from live-streaming his Saturday headline slot, Rod’s set will be live-streamed by the BBC and is a flagship plank of their wall-to-wall coverage. But Neil and Rod will at least have one thing in common other than musical pedigree……model railways.

Rod frequently takes parts of his model railway set on tour with him to practice them, frequently booking additional hotel rooms to place them on a large table. He can at least talk to Saturday night headliner Neil about the subject while he keeps the trains at home this time.

Rod will hope that Neil will attend on Sunday, according to a source. Both of them are train-obsessed.

Rod will receive a massage as well as a static bike to warm his limbs up before the performance as opposed to backstage trains. Rod’s rider typically consists of four bottles of Coca-cola and a large bottle of rum before any performances.

According to a source, “Rod is getting a little more booze this time around, but the intention is to bring the party back to the hotel after that.” However, Rod may continue to be present on the site but there are always chances that he will want to leave.

The performance, which Rod is expected to perform side of the stage while Penny is expected to be there in a number of flamboyant outfits, is expected to feature.

She added, “She is Rod’s biggest fan at the best of times and is just bursting with pride that he will be one of Glastonbury’s biggest draws”

Do you believe I’m attractive? Penny undoubtedly does…

US sets deadline to end Temporary Protected Status for Haitian immigrants

Haitian immigrants will no longer be protected under special laws under the US government.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced in a statement on Friday that Haitians would no longer be able to remain in the nation as a result of the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation.

TPS allows citizens of nations that are in conflict, a natural disaster, or other extraordinary circumstances to temporarily reside in the US. They are also permitted to travel and work.

The DHS secretary can extend the designation to a period of six, twelve, or 18 months, though it is typically done for a longer period.

Temporary protections like TPS have been withdrawn as part of a larger effort to restrict immigration to the US, however, under President Donald Trump’s administration.

A DHS spokesman said in a statement on Friday that “this decision restores integrity to our immigration system and ensures that Temporary Protective Status is actually temporary.

More than a 10th of the population was killed and 1.5 million people were left homeless in Haiti as a result of a devastating earthquake in 2010, which was the first to grant the TPS designation. Particularly in the wake of recent years of worsening gang violence and political instability, the designation has been regularly extended and expanded.

President Trump has attempted to end TPS for Haitians even as the island nation’s situation has deteriorated since taking office from 2017 to 2021.

More than 5, 600 gang-related fatalities occurred in Haiti last year, and 1.3 million people were internally. This has caused a protracted humanitarian crisis in Haiti. Food, water, and medical supplies are extremely difficult to obtain in the capital, where armed groups currently control 90% of the city.

Haiti is listed as a Level 4 nation, the highest warning level, according to the US Department of State’s travel advisory.

Because the designated area has life-threatening conditions, Level 4 means “do not travel.” Due to “kidnapping, crime, civil unrest, and limited health care,” the State Department advises Americans to avoid Haiti.

However, according to the DHS statement, Kristi Noem, the secretary of homeland security, “decided that overall, country conditions have improved to the point where Haitians can return home safely.”

Further, the statement further explains that she concluded that allowing Haitian nationals to temporarily reside in the United States was against the country’s national interest.

TPS is estimated to affect 260 000 Haitians. The statement advises those impacted to either seek refuge in their home country or return.

However, Haitians are not the only population affected by the temporary immigration ban.

The Supreme Court made it possible for the Trump administration to revoke TPS for 350, 000 Venezuelan residents living in the US in early May.

The high court also upheld Trump’s right to revoke the two-year “humanitarian parole” that made it possible for 530, 000 people to remain and work in the US after the high court’s ruling later in the month. Cubans, Haitians, Venezuelans, and Nicaraguans, all of whom are facing political repression in their home countries, were among the affected humanitarian parole recipients.

Liverpool agree deal for Preston keeper Woodman

Freddie Woodman has joined Liverpool from Preston North End in a free transfer, according to Premier League champions Liverpool.

The 28-year-old is about to end his contract, having made 22 appearances for the Championship side last season.

Woodman will start pre-season training with Arne Slot’s squad next month, according to Liverpool’s announcement on Friday.

Alisson Becker and Giorgi Mamardashvili need experienced cover as Vitezslav Jaros and Harvey Davies are both on loan from Valencia until the end of the current season.

Caoimhin Kelleher was sold to Brentford earlier this year for a potential £18 million fee.

Woodman has represented Preston, Kilmarnock, Swansea City, and Newcastle United. He won the World Cup with England Under-20s in 2017.

Woodman does not need to play one of Liverpool’s 17 non-homegrown slots on the Uefa squad because he meets the requirements for an “association trained” player.

Kneecap slams they have ‘enough s***’ to worry about’ amid flag fallout and Glastonbury

Kneecap have opened up on their thoughts about their controversial actions ahead of their upcoming Glastonbury set this weekend

Irish rap trio Kneecap have hit out at the reaction to bandmember Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh allegedly displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig last year.

The musician appeared in court earlier this month, after being charged, with the band’s scheduled appearance at Glastonbury put in doubt at the time. There were even calls from the Prime Minister for them to be booted off.

However, with the set ready to still go ahead, the band have furiously hit out at the reaction to their actions. Kneecap, which is also made up of Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh, will still perform on the West Holts Stage on Saturday, and said they have “enough s*** to worry about” when it comes to the fallout from their actions.

In a chat with the Guardian, Ó hAnnaidh was asked if he regretted the moment. However, he insisted it was a joke and he portrays a character. “S*** is thrown on stage all the time,” he said. “If I’m supposed to know every f***ing thing that’s thrown on stage [including the Hezbollah flag] I’d be in Mensa, Jesus Christ.”

He went on: “I don’t know every proscribed organisation – I’ve got enough s*** to worry about up there. I’m thinking about my next lyric, my next joke, the next drop of a beat.”

And he also asked why he should regret his “dead Tory” comments. “It was a joke,” he defiantly said. “we’re playing characters, it’s satirical, it’s a f***ing joke.”

He went on to say the video “wasn’t an issue” until the band’s “Free Palestine” comment at Coachella. “The point is, and the context is, it all [resurfaced] because of Coachella. That’s what we should be questioning, not whether I regret things,” he said.

In May, Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, who uses the stage name Mo Chara, was charged over the alleged display of a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London last November.

The band have strongly denied the charges brought against the star and released a statement to insist they will “vehemently defend” themselves against what they claimed was “political policing”. The court heard the 27-year-old is “well within his rights” to voice his opinions on Israel and Palestine, but the alleged incident is a “wholly different thing”.

At the hearing, Prosecutor Michael Bisgrove said: “Of course, support for the one is not the same as support for the other.

“So the issue in this case, and the reason it has come to court, it centres on the apparent support by Mr Óg Ó hAnnaidh of a proscribed terrorist organisation.”

Óg Ó hAnnaidh was released on unconditional bail until his next hearing at the same court on August 20. His release has allowed the band to play their controversial Glastonbury set. However, it’s not thought that the set will be broadcast live on the BBC.

I had first death threat at 18 – Watson on social media abuse

Getty Images

British tennis player Heather Watson says she has received social media abuse “daily” during her career and had her first death threat aged 18.

Watson was speaking after compatriot Katie Boulter told BBC Sport about the scale of unsavoury and hurtful comments she has received online, including death threats.

And Sir Andy Murray has said he is trying to keep his children away from social media and backed calls for more action to prevent abuse of sport stars.

“My first death threat was at 18,” Watson told BBC Sport at a Wimbledon media event on Friday. “I told my friend [American tennis player] Sloane Stephens at the time.

“The thing that shocked me the most, but also kind of made me feel better – because I told her I was scared as this person told me he was watching me and was going to kill me – was that she said ‘girl, don’t worry, I get these all the time’.

“I’m smiling now after so many years and such a long career. I receive abuse daily, but it is all in perspective.

“It is all just sad people who have nothing better going in their lives than to sit behind their computer or phone and write that.

“I don’t think anyone in their right mind would abuse someone online they have never met. It just goes over my head, it is just madness.”

Watson is preparing for Wimbledon and will face Danish 23rd seed Clara Tauson in the first round of the singles draw, having been handed a wildcard.

‘Abuse is the norm’

Speaking to BBC Sport earlier this month Boulter said that receiving abusive content and death threats has become “the norm” for athletes and that “it becomes more apparent every single time you go on your phone”.

Murray, who retired from professional tennis in August 2024, said the prevalence of social media abuse “hasn’t really changed”, despite athletes speaking out on the subject for many years.

Following Boulter’s comments, fellow tennis players demanded more action, including calls for the introduction of identity verification on social media.

Several of the England women’s football team also plan to give up social media for their forthcoming European Championship defence in Switzerland.
