Laura Anderson’s public feud with ex Gary Lucy has been the talking point among many since she gave birth to the couple’s daughter Bonnie, back in 2023. But it seems as though the hatchet is far from being buried as the former Celebs Go Dating star took to social media with another post that appeared to criticise her ex.

Laura, 36, shared a new post on Instagram, writing the cryptic phrase: “I used to tell myself, ‘maybe they’re going through something’. But then I realised…. So was I but I never treated anyone that way.”

She concluded her Instagram post saying: “Don’t let anyone treat you with disrespect. There’s no excuse.” This comes after it was exclusively revealed by the Mirror that Laura had joined forces with the former Hollyoaks actor’s ex wife.

Laura is believed to have “bonded” with Natasha Gray who shares four children with Gary. A source told us last month: “Laura and Natasha have bonded over their experiences with Gary and neither of them has anything nice to say. They don’t see an issue with their friendship. Neither of them are with Gary any more so in their opinion it’s none of his business.”

Following the announcement of Laura’s pregnancy two years ago, it emerged that the couple had decided to split. But they reunited briefly and finally called time on their tumultuous relationship soon after.

It was claimed at the time that Gary had refused to relocate to Scotland as he would be too far from his older children. And a source told The Sun that Natasha had in fact noticed similarities between their experiences with Gary, which has made her realise the trauma Laura was going through.

Their close bond was noticed after Laura posted a snap of Natasha and her children. She wrote: “From one proud hard working mother to another @natasha_v_lucy. We are lucky to call our beautiful babies siblings. You have been and still continue to be my rock. Bonnie and I love you all.”

Last October, Gary was forced to address claims that he was acting like a “deadbeat dad”, a claim made by his ex girlfriend Laura.

Soon after the former couple welcomed their daughter into the world, Laura said she was left disappointed over Gary’s alleged lack of involvement.

Gary had posted a picture of him as the doting father with his son Theodore. And an enraged, Laura wrote: “Instead of posting videos of the one time you saw your daughter this year, can you please reply to my text from 2weeks ago please, that would be great.”

Gary did not respond with a comment, instead he used the power of hashtags to express his opinion. Under his comment that read: “I could eat him all up,” he added “#handsomeboy #deadbeatdad.” This was accompanied by an emoji of a middle finger.

But this is not the only time. Back in June, Laura was asked by a fan if their daughter Bonnie had a relationship with her father. And in response she said: “Do you mean has her daddy seen her…. No he hasn’t since 2nd January if you would like to direct those questions to him as I have no control over the actions of others.”

The Beckham family have come together in support of mum Victoria Beckham’s fashion show in Paris despite Brooklyn Beckham being a no-show to the big family event

This time last year, Victoria and David Beckham’s eldest son Brooklynwas one of her biggest cheerleaders when it came to supporting her fashion shows. But what a difference a year makes as this time, following a well-documented family feud, Brooklyn was nowhere to be seen as the former Spice Girl’s Paris Fashion Week show.

That did not stop the rest of the Beckham clan flocking to Paris to support Victoria as David, sons Romeo and Cruz, along with their youngest child Harper came together and put on a united front. The family were pictured leaving their hotel to head to Victoria’s show.

Covering his 14 year old daughter with an umbrella, David shielded her from the Parisian downpour. Harper stunned the waiting crowds in a salmon pink floor length strapless dress. She completed her look with a delicate necklace and a pair of heels.

Meanwhile, David was seen looking sophisticated in a tailored suit. Romeo and Cruz appeared to exude their mother’s love for embracing fashion as their chosen looks were cutting edge. Cruz stepped out by his girlfriend Jackie Apostel in a T-shirt which read: “You wanna know how it looks.”

Brooklyn has reportedly been feuding with his family members for months. Tension between the once close knit family had become so bad that Brooklyn skipped out on celebrating his dad’s milestone birthday.

But David’s 50th birthday was one of many occasions the aspiring chef and his wife Nicola Peltz snubbed.

Addressing the ongoing drama with his family Brooklyn spoke to the Daily Mail. During his interview he said: “There’s always going to be people saying negative things, but I have a very supportive wife.” He added: “Me and her, we just do our thing, we just keep our heads down and work. And we’re happy.”

Brooklyn continued: “Everyone is always going to say rubbish. I just try and do this, play some golf with some friends.”

His comment was in reference to the celebrity golf event at the Ryder Cup and competed as part of Team Europe.

Without directly addressing his family, he made reference to Nicola and revealed that he was heading back to Los Angeles after the New York event, as he had left her with their four dogs.

He revealed: “I left my wife with our four dogs on her own, so I have to go back and help out and get back to work.”

Taylor Swift, a pop star, just released her 12th album today, making it seem as though she has used some incredibly cryptic clues to dig at her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn.

Taylor Swift fans have been left convinced she’s hit out at her ex Joe Alwyn in her new album, The Life of a Showgirl. The pop star released her 12th album today, with fans trawling through each lyric to work out references to her personal life.

She has detailed her love for fiancé Travis Kelce on the album following their engagement over the summer. And Taylor also didn’t mince her words on Actually Romantic where she appeared to reference her feud with Charli XCX.

Some fans, however, are left persuaded that she is now singing about her ex-boyfriend Joe. After six years of dating, Joe and Taylor parted ways in April 2023, according to a source who insisted that the end was minor.

They explained to Page Six that the relationship had “just “just flowed.” Taylor “pledged allegiance” to a love interest who “dug her out of her grave,” according to Taylor’s new song, The Fate of Ophelia.

Taylor sings that “the fate of Ophelia was saved from my heart,” according to fans who believe Travis to be the singer. Shakespeare abruptly ends his romantic relationship with Ophelia in Hamlet, telling her to “get thee to a nunnery.”

Hamlet also chooses to murder her father Polonius by accident. Following her agonizing, Ophelia tragically drowns in what is interpreted as suicide.

Swifties are largely certain that the song is about Travis’s swoon following Taylor’s breakup from Joe, who also appears in a recent Hamlet film adaptation.

Shakespeare and his wife’s daughter dies after their young son, according to the actor, who also starred in the movie Hamnet. According to one fan, “Mind you Joe Alwyn is starring in Hamlet this year” and “Tay wrote The Fate of Ophelia.”

Another commented, “I know Taylor chose Olivia’s fate because Joe is from Hamnet and Hamlet, but I can’t prove it.” Someone else said, “And when will we clock that Taylor wrote the fate of Opel because Joe is in a new hamlet adaptation and Hamnet.”

A fourth person wrote, “Officially, the fate of ophelia is sooo good and iconic because she romanticized Joe and her depressive relationship for a long time and now she finally admits that their relationship was going to end me.” and Taylor helped her rekindle her inner joy.

Joe has remained tight lipped on his romance with Taylor but he did describe it as a “hard thing to navigate”. He told the Sunday Times last year: “What is unusual and abnormal in this situation is that, one week later, it’s suddenly in the public domain and the outside world is able to weigh in.”

Fans assumed Taylor had made a dig at Joe on her previous album, Tortured Poets Department. The group chat Joe and his pals Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott titled Tortured Men’s Club appeared to be a brutal swipe at it.

Disgraced US rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs faces sentencing on Friday in a sordid criminal case that could keep him locked up for years

View 3 Images

Sean “Diddy” Combs is set to face sentencing on Friday (October 3) in a scandalous criminal case that could see him behind bars for years. The hip-hop tycoon was found guilty by a jury in July of flying individuals across the country for sexual encounters, including his girlfriends and male sex workers, breaching the federal Mann Act.

He was cleared of more severe charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking which could have resulted in a life sentence. Prosecutors are pushing for over 11 years in prison for Diddy, 55, who was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.

Meanwhile, his legal team argue the punishment is “wildly out of proportion” and are calling for his immediate release. U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian, who will determine the sentence, has twice refused bail and indicated that it’s unlikely Combs will be leaving federal custody anytime soon.

On Friday (October 3), the judge stated that despite Combs being cleared of certain charges, the verdict doesn’t absolve him of underlying conduct, such as violence and coercion.

In his letter on Thursday, Combs told the judge, “The old me died in jail and a new version of me was reborn,” vowing he would never commit another crime. Cassie, in her own letter, claimed he as an abuser who “will always be the same cruel, power-hungry, manipulative man that he is.”

Combs’ lawyers argue the sexual encounters were consensual and that prison has prompted his sobriety and regret. They maintain he has already been punished enough. At a hearing last week, Combs told his mother and children that he is “getting closer to going home.”

Combs’ nearly two-month trial in a federal court in Manhattan saw testimonies from women who recounted being beaten, threatened, sexually assaulted and blackmailed by Combs. Former girlfriend and R&B singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura told jurors that Combs forced her to have “disgusting” sex with strangers hundreds of times during their decade-long relationship.

The jury was repeatedly shown footage of him dragging and assaulting her in a Los Angeles hotel corridor following one such multi-day “freak-off.”

A woman who gave evidence under the pseudonym “Jane” said she endured violence and felt compelled to perform sexually with male sex workers at drug-fuelled “hotel nights” whilst Combs observed and sometimes recorded.

As Friday’s hearing commenced, prosecutors revealed the only Combs victim scheduled to speak in person had withdrawn following defence objections. The woman, a former personal assistant who testified under the pseudonym “Mia,” accused Combs of raping her in 2010 and has implored the judge to impose a sentence reflecting “the ongoing danger my abuser poses to me, and to others.”

Combs’ legal team say he will address the court, and they plan to present an 11-minute video showcasing his family life, career and charitable work. The judge confirmed Combs’ children and a minister will also be permitted to speak.

Prosecutors stated the focus of Friday’s sentencing was accountability for Combs and justice for the public. “It’s a case about a man who did horrible things to real people to satisfy his own sexual gratification,” Prosecutor Christy Slavik said, “he didn’t need the money. His currency was control.”

Prosecutors also slammed Combs for, according to them, having arranged a speaking engagement in Miami next week — apparently presuming he’d be free to attend. “That is the height of hubris,” Slavik said.

Combs made his entrance into the bustling courtroom via a side door, flanked by deputy U.S. marshals. Dressed in a light-coloured jumper, button-down shirt and dark trousers, he embraced his legal team and acknowledged his family and supporters.

Outside the courthouse, photographers descended en masse as lawyers and family members arrived, mirroring scenes from the trial. To bolster their racketeering case, prosecutors had enlisted witnesses who testified about other violent acts.
