Disney+ is set to launch a blockbuster series that’s gearing up to be your next streaming binge. While the House of Mouse’s streamer may be best known as the home of Marvel and Star Wars, it’s also the place to go for gripping series like Rivals and Only Murders in the Building.

Now it’s debuting a new series from the executive producer of Only Murders in the Building that’s packed with twists and turns and conspiracy woven throughout. Streaming later this month, Paradise is an eight-part murder-mystery thriller that promises watercooler moments in each instalment.

Its official synopsis reads: “Read between the lies. Paradise is set in an upscale community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But this tranquillity explodes when a shocking murder occurs and a high-stakes investigation unfolds. ”

As revealed in the series trailer, Xavier is the last person to see the president alive after being entrusted with top-secret national security information. This leads to intense scrutiny as he becomes embroiled in the investigation.

Disney+ now costs as little as £4. 99 a month, but members can get 12 months for the price of 10 by paying for a year upfront on the ad-free Standard or Premium plans.

Paradise boasts some stellar talent in its cast, including Oscar-nominee Sterling K. Brown as Agent Xavier Collins, the president’s most trusted secret service agent. He stars alongside X-Men actor James Marsden as President Cal Bradford, the President of Paradise, and Mare of Easttown’s Julianne Nicholson as Samantha Redmond, a ‘political power player’ behind the scenes.

The series comes from creator and executive producer Dan Fogelman, the mind behind hit shows Only Murders in the Building and This is Us. It will debut on Disney+ on January 28 with the first three episodes, with new episodes dropping weekly.

Molly-Mae breaks down over old videos of her struggling and reveals heartbreaking wish

Molly-Mae Hague broke down in tears while watching old videos of her struggles and shared a heartbreaking wish about her recent past.

In an emotional moment, the star reflected on the challenges she faced, particularly during the early days of motherhood. She admitted that, looking back, she wished she had known better and handled things differently. Watching these memories brought up a lot of emotion for the reality star, who is now focusing on her future with her daughter, Bambi.

Molly took to her Instagram stories on Wednesday to reflect on her daughter Bambi’s second birthday. In her first post, she shared a heartwarming video of her reading to Bambi while holding her on her lap. Molly captioned the moment, “Last evening as my one-year-old… Mummy loves you more than words could ever explain,” adding a crying emoji and a white heart. The second post, in black and white, showed a newborn Bambi with the caption, “Always,” and another heart.

In the third post, Molly opened up to her 8. 4 million followers, sharing a video where she appeared exhausted as she cradled a crying Bambi in her arms. As she comforted her daughter, Molly was seen checking the temperature of the milk before feeding her.

Molly captioned the post: “Was looking through old pictures… and found this video which made me cry! I wish I knew then what I know now… That the best times were just round the corner. To my other new mums out there that resonate with this video… The best times are yet to come. I can’t believe I’m two years on and I’m loving motherhood more than I could’ve ever imagined. If only I knew. “

This comes after the debut of Molly’s six-part docuseries, titled Molly-Mae: Behind it All. The former Love Island star invited fans behind the scenes with unprecedented access to her private life, both personal and professional. She revealed her true feelings around her highly-publicised split with Tommy Fury, which came in August 2024 after a five-year romance.

She also revealed the true reason for their split, explaining that it wasn’t due to infidelity rumors, but rather Tommy’s drinking. Molly and Tommy have since sparked reunion rumours.

In a new TikTok video, which is doing the rounds on the viral video app, one eagle-eyed social media user has posted proof that professional boxer Tommy still spends time in the Cheshire home he once shared with Molly, before their shock split back in August.

The video in question, posted by social media superstar Molly-Mae this week, sees the former couple’s two-year-old daughter Bambi playing with her mum’s beloved cats.

The sweet video sees Bambi pet the fluffy cats Eggy and Bread, as proud mum Molly-Mae calls them Bambi’s ‘brothers’. While most of Molly-Mae’s die-hard fans were concentrated on the adorable moment with Bambi, others were left zooming in on the video after spotting a reflection of Tommy in the window.

On further inspection, a dark-haired man – who has an uncanny resemblance the professional boxer – is seen laying down on the couch while wearing a white t-shirt. Molly-Mae chose not to suggest that anyone else besides her and Bambi were in the space at the time – but nothing goes amiss when it comes to her curious fanbase.

After laying eyes on the suspicious video, many fans of the former couple are now hoping that they’re back together for good after they were also spotted sharing a passionate kiss on New Year’s Eve – despite the pair ending their five-year relationship and calling off their engagement due to Tommy’s escalating drink problem.

“Omg! ! ! They are so back together! ! ! Why else would Tommy be so comfortable laying on the couch like that? I’m happy for Molly-Mae,” one excited fan gushed. “They seem to have moved on and are making progress. This is great news because they literally belong together,” another echoed.

Award-winning BBC musician Lorna Spode dies after tragic dementia battle

Musician Lorna Spode has died at the age of 98.

The award-winning star and founder of the Lorna Spode Consult died following an ongoing battle with dementia. Over 40 years, the Lorna Spode Consult was crowned BBC Radio Stoke’s Champion Choir and winners of the Blackpool Music Festival. Due to her dementia diagnosis, Lorna was too weak to stave off a chest infection.

She died on January 10 shortly before her 99th birthday and is survived by her husband Ken, who she married in 1953. Ken will turn 100 in March and the pair celebrated their 71st wedding anniversary in June last year. The couple have two children, three grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. Lorna was a self-taught musician and held lessons before recruiting pupils to her choir. Her funeral will be held later this month.

Lorna’s daughter paid tribute to the star as she opened up on the devastating loss. Angela said: “She got dementia just when everything had settled down with Covid. She realised she was forgetting things. After the diagnosis she started to decline quite quickly really.

“It’s been hard, but in a way we were ready for it. We’ve been seeing mum every day and we’ve seen her rapid decline. For a couple of weeks before, she didn’t know anyone. ” Angela explained her mum came from a “humble” background. Lorna began playing the piano from the age of five and quickly discovered her hidden talent.

She was able to go up the grades quickly and started her professional music career by doing singing lessons at her house. Lorna had strict rules for who was able to join her choir as Angela confessed ” if you weren’t any good, you wouldn’t get in! “

She added to StokeonTrentLive: “She was a strong lady. She ruled the roost along with my dad, and she could be very opinionated. She was quite strict, but always fair with us. She knew how to get what she wanted out of you! ” Angela explained the family are “holding it together” for Lorna’s husband Ken, who is “very upset”.

Lorna was able to entertain her fellow care home residents up until her death. Her daughter shared Lorna didn’t have many other interests besides music but always loved her family. She enjoyed going on days out with her loved ones as well as holidays all together.

Despite not being keen on meals out, she did enjoy it if she was with her family. Angela added that Lorna loved picking blackberries and has fond memories of her going out into the local woods together in the summer to collect them.

Billy Ray Cyrus’ son pleads ‘I don’t recognise you’ to dad after ‘trainwreck’ Trump gig

Billy Ray Cyrus’ son Trace has issued an emotional plea just days after his “trainwreck” performance at Donald Trump’s second inauguration.

The country singer’s performance didn’t go as smooth sailing as he might have hoped as it was plagued by technical difficulties. As he tried to mark Trump’s return to the White House, he ended up performing song Old Town Road without proper equipment. Struggling with the issues, he tried singing a cappella but was overheard asking the crew if his guitar was working.

Frustrated by the ongoing problems, he told the audience: “Y’all want me to sing more or you just want me to get the hell off the stage? I don’t give a damn. ” Viewers branded the performance a “trainwreck” and “embarrassing”. However, Billy hit back and said he “wouldn’t have missed the honor” of playing for Trump.

His son Trace has since claimed he “barely recognises” his famous dad and shared a photo of him joining Billy on stage when he was younger. Trace is the son of Billy’s ex wife Tish Cyrus and Bexter Neal Helson. When he was four-years-old, Billy adopted him. In his desperate plea, Trace wrote: “Since my earliest memories all I can remember is being obsessed with you and thinking you were the coolest person ever.

“I wanted to be just like you. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life. Sadly the man that I wanted so desperately to be just like I barely recognize now. It seems this world has beaten you down and it’s become obvious to everyone but you. You may be upset with me for posting this but I really could care less at this point.

“Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you’ve pushed all of us away. Noah desperately has wanted you to be a part of her life and you haven’t even been there for her. That’s your baby girl. She deserves better. Somehow just like me she still idolizes you though. “

After marrying Tish in 1993, Billy adopted her two children Brandi and Trace. The couple went on to have Miley, Braison and Noah while Billy is also dad to son Christopher from a previous relationship. It has been reported Noah has remained “close” to her famous dad amid his split from her mum.

However, the once close relationship he had with daughter Miley went downhill when Trish and Billy split. They had been married for almost 30 years and it has been reported Miley took her mum’s side. Their relationship became even more strained when Billy moved on and married Australian singer Firerose, who’s 25 years younger than him.

Billy and Firerose split just seven months later amid an audio leaking that saw him brand Miley a “devil” and a “skank. ” It was reported in November that Miley and Billy’s relationship was severed and she intended to never speak to him ever again. Last summer, Trump shaded Miley at a rally that Billy happened to be at. “Billy Ray Cyrus is here. Where is Billy Ray? He’s around here someplace, and he’s great,” Trump said at the event. “He’s a conservative guy. I said, ‘How did you get such a liberal daughter? How had that happened, Billy Ray? ‘”
