Perfect for your next weekend getaway in the hills, camping near a coastal town or having some downtime in the great outdoors, the Berghaus Adhara Air Tent is a perfect pick for families and groups of five or less. Pitching takes just 20 minutes, which means more time to relax and unwind in the great outdoors, without the dreaded hassle of complicated construction.

Boasting airflow ventilation, the Adhara 500 Nightfall Tent promises to stay fresh no matter who is sleeping inside or for how long. Combined with the natural light from the clear window panels, it gives you a homely, liveable space that’s perfect for downtime, especially during turbulent weather.

With separate bedrooms sectioned off from the main space, this tent utilises darkening Nightfall technology to prevent rude awakenings from the early summer sun and comes with a removable divider for adaptable space.

Featuring a spacious living area with enough headroom for everyone under 6’4” ft, this tent comes with high-performance air beams for an even simpler setup, ensuring an easy and complication-free pitching. Plus, this tent also boasts a fully sealed sewn-in groundsheet for easier pitching and enhanced protection from the ground.

One five-star reviewer who has loved using this Berghaus tent left their praise in the following comment: “Owned this for 3 years now and am very happy with this excellent tent. Pitching is quick once you have practised a few times (peg four corners but do not stretch out too much; ensure the air valves are ‘popped out’; inflating the air beams is then easy; adjust the four peg positions so the sides are taut; peg-out fully). Pump comes with a gauge, and there is a pressure relief valve so you cannot over-inflate. Feels very study, even in strong winds. Exceptionally high hydrostatic head and sewn-in groundsheet means it stays dry even in driving rain. Nightfall compartments are effective.”

A shopper told fashion fans to run to TK Maxx after spotting the ‘cute’ bag that resembles a designer version

TK Maxx is stocking a leather bag that resembles a pricier version. The discount retailer has long been popular with shoppers searching for deals, and fashion lovers were amazed by one shopper’s recent find. Posting on TikTok as @siikha00, London-based blogger Sikha showcased a “gorgeous” £54.99 bag that she’d spotted in-store.

As seen in the video, the shopper found a genuine leather Silviano tote bag that was heavily discounted. According to the product tag, the bag’s RRP is usually £255, and Sikha thought it resembled another bag with a higher price tag.

She told followers: “Don’t walk, run to TK Maxx because I found this bag that kind of looks like the Dragon Diffusion bag that I’ve been wanting for the longest time.” She also included a picture of the Rosanna Woven Shoulder Bag, showing viewers her dream style.

Sikha continued: “It’s really cute. The material is a bit different of course because it is a different thing. It also has a zip, there’s a few pockets inside, which is very helpful.” Her caption added: “Defo get this if you’re on a budget and want to buy for similar vibes but not the same type.”

While the two bags differ in shape, they share a similar woven brown design. There’s also a price difference, as the Rosanna Woven Shoulder Bag currently retails for £315 at Fenwick.

Although it is not specified in the video, it looks like Sikha found the Silviano Mayfair – Signature Handwoven Leather Shopper Tote, which is listed at full price on the brand’s website.

The product description for the Silviano bag says: “Timeless and functional, the Mayfair is a tote built for the modern woman who appreciates heritage detail and effortless style. Whether for work, travel, or day-to-night dressing — this bag elevates any look.”

While Fenwick’s does not offer a detailed description of the Rosanna Woven Shoulder Bag, it does specify that the bag is leather. The brand description adds: “Inspired by traditional basket weaving cultures, let Dragon Diffusion elevate your accessories edit with a collection of carefully braided leather bags. Expertly hand-crafted, each and every design has been borne from insatiable curiosity.”

Shoppers loved the look of the Silviano bag. Replying to the TikTok video, someone praised: “Omggg so cute.” A similar comment read: “Omg this is gorgeous!!” A third fan replied: “So fab.” Another response read: “Love it!!!” A different commenter added: “Fav shop for bags.”

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like the bag is available on TK Maxx’s website. Shoppers can check their nearest store here. However, TK Maxx’s website does offer a selection of Silviano bags, including a Deep Blue Leather Weave Tote Bag for £69.99 with a RRP of £350 and a Black Weave Shopper Bag for £49.99 with a RRP of £235.

There’s also a Black Weave Shopper Bag for £69.99 with a RRP of £350. While the bags differ in style, they could be just as impressive to shoppers looking for a luxury bag for less.

Prosecutors have laid bare their evidence against two men told yesterday they would be put on trial over tragic musician Liam Payne’s Buenos Aires hotel death.

Waiter Braian Nahuel Paiz and former hotel worker Ezequiel David Pereyra have been languishing in prison since the start of January after being charged with selling the former One Direction singer the cocaine he snorted and smoked before his fatal third-storey drug-fuelled balcony plunge.

Argentinian public prosecutors were known to have obtained incriminating phone messages and hotel CCTV footage which included images of Liam standing by the open door of a lift at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel and chatting with a man identified as Pereyra shortly before the singer died on October 16 last year.

During the brief encounter the 31-year-old Brit is said to have asked him for “seven grams of the same drug he had handed him earlier.”

Overnight prosecutors went public with more details of their dossiers, revealing they had “incriminating” witness statements from FIVE hotel employees against 24-year-old Pereyra, who like Paiz has been warned he faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted, and CCTV footage showing him handing Payne cocaine outside the artist’s room around an hour and ten minutes before he died.

Pereyra has been accused of selling Liam cocaine twice, the second time “between 3.30 and 4pm on October 16.”
Argentina’s public prosecution service said in a statement referencing Pereyra: “One of the witnesses that compromised him the most was the hotel’s head of general maintenance.

“He testified that around 9pm on 14 October he met Pereyra in a lift, saw that he had a $100 note in his hand and when he asked him if it was a tip and who had given it to him, said Pereyra replied that he had to ‘run an errand for a guest’ which he later explained was ‘to bring drugs’.

“At 2:30 a.m. on 15 October, Payne asked the hotel receptionist for a taxi to an address – Pereyra’s home at 2800 Homero Street in the Lomas de Zamora district of Buenos Aires – because ‘someone had to bring him something’.
“Prosecutors determined, from the statement of the driver of the Cabify app car that made the trip, and from the images of the security cameras outside the hotel, that Pereyra arrived at the door of the hotel at 3.25am, met Liam Payne in the street outside and walked with towards the corner of Costa Rica and Dorrego Avenue, where a camera captured the accused man with ‘some kind of wrapper in one of his hands.’”

Lead prosecutor Andres Madrea revealed a computer technician who works for the CasaSur Hotel has also incriminated Pereyra. He said: “The employee, who speaks English, shared a lift with Payne the afternoon of his death. He has testified that when they reached a hotel basement Liam began to talk while still inside the lift with Pereyra, who was arranging some chairs outside the lift, and he heard the musician say: ‘Hey man I will need another seven grams more for today.’”

Public prosecutors added in their statement: “Mr Madrea detailed in his trial request that the drug transaction took place around 3.45pm on October 16, in a third-floor corridor where cameras captured Pereyra’s arrival in the lift and the exchange.”

They said the indictment against Paiz, also accused of selling Liam Payne cocaine on two separate occasions in the run-up to his death, was based partly on messages the two men had exchanged discovered on the singer’s phone after he plunged to his death.

Prosecutors revealed more detail about the conversations between the pair, who met at a restaurant the musician dined at in the upmarket Buenos Aires neighbourhood where Paiz was working as a waiter.
They said: “Lead prosecutor Andres Madrea reproduced in his trial request an exchange of messages in the early hours of October 14, where the singer asks the accused for five or five grams and the waiter replies an hour later that he had obtained three grams with the phrase in English: ‘I think I got to three.

“Paiz then sent the musician several photographs related to narcotics, including one of a transparent plastic bag with a white powder, after which they agreed that the waiter would go to the CasaSur Hotel where the accused arrived at 3:24am according to the security camera records.

“This shows that the accused Paiz, at Payne’s request, went to the hotel in question, stayed in his room, where he gave cocaine to Payne, until he left at around 8:15 am.”

They went on to detail the second “drug deal” later the same day when Liam Payne took a taxi to Paiz’s flat to pick up cocaine – and reference another subsequent message exchange about a third “possible deal” which they said ended with the singer writing: “I have DOLLARS US 100. Party.”

Three other men initially charged over Liam’s death were told in February the case against them had been dropped.

Liam’s close friend Rogelio Nores, hotel receptionist Esteban Grassi and hotel head of security Gilda Martin were accused of his manslaughter by a female lower court judge before reversing her decision on appeal.
No date has yet been set for the Paiz and Pereyra trial although it is expected to kick off shortly.

Paiz, who has previously protested his innocence, spoke again from prison this week to repeat an earlier claim that he had shared drugs with the artist but hadn’t committed the serious offence of selling him narcotics.
The 25-year-old whined in an interview with Argentinian media outlet Infobae from his jail cell at a Buenos Aires police station: “I don’t know what I’m doing here, I’m a good person.
“I shared drugs with Liam but I didn’t sell them.”

Describing himself as a drug user who started smoking marihuana as a youngster, he added: “All I want to do is start studying again and leave jail to work, like I was doing before.
“I regret now giving Liam my Instagram because it all spiralled from there.

“If I hadn’t I’d probably be working today, I’d be studying, I’d be doing videos because before meeting Liam I’d participated in the filming of a video-clip for YouTube for a singer and other videos for TV.
“I miss the freedom I had, I miss work, I miss my family, my mum and my sisters.”

Pereyra handed himself in on January 6 after making himself a fugitive the previous week following failed police attempts to locate and arrest him so he could be remanded in pre-trial custody on the orders of an investigating judge. He has yet to make any public comment.

Rachel Hawkins, 40, who appeared on the final episodes of Clarkson’s Farm, has hit out at the show and claimed she was ‘stitched up’ after fans branded her ‘snobby’

Clarkson’s Farm star Rachel Hawkins has broken her silence about her involvement in helping Jeremy Clarkson open his Cotswolds pub, and she’s not holding back against critics after facing severe backlash.

The 40-year-old businesswoman reportedly believes that she and her aunt Sue, who is also her business partner, were unfairly portrayed as ‘villains’ to boost the ratings of the popular Amazon Prime TV show following the former Top Gear presenter’s journey as a farmer.

The pub transformers were labelled ‘snobby’ and ‘rude’ by some savage viewers thanks to a series of tense disagreements with Clarkson, who had hired them to help him with the mammoth task of getting his pub, The Farmer’s Dog, off the ground.

But it didn’t work out, and Rachel and Sue, who featured in the final episodes of the latest series of the programme, ended up leaving the project just two days after the grand opening of the country inn. Their early exit led to some viewers to speculate about their reason for bailing sooner than expected.

When questioned if Clarkson’s Farm had been edited to portray her and Sue in “a bad light to make better TV”, Rachel tellingly replied: “It seems to be the way doesn’t it?”

Speaking to the Daily Mail, Rachel didn’t let the criticism get to her, adding: “It’s a shame it was us, but it is what it is – we will keep a smile on our face, and keep our chin up.”

The businesswoman also revealed to the publication that she was unable to fully defend herself against the onslaught of public criticism due to a legally-binding contract, known as a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), with the production company. “I think it is best to not say anything further. I don’t want to get myself into trouble,” she confessed.

However, one of her friend was able to tell the publication that Rachel feels she’s been “stitched up a bit” when she and Sue were just offering Clarkson some “sensible advice” based on their expert knowledge.

“They were ridiculed for suggesting to Jeremy that he buy three huge umbrellas for the outdoor area for the pub at a cost of £40,000. But it was a sensible suggestion and he eventually ended up buying them,” the pal said. “It’s just a shame that they have received so much criticism.”

In a memorable scene from season four of Clarkson’s Farm, Sue and Rachel suggested that Clarkson shell out £40,000 on outdoor patio umbrellas, despite his initial budget of just £25,000 for the entire pub opening. Despite initially dismissing the aunt-niece pair’s costly advice, it appears that Clarkson has unexpectedly changed his mind.

On Tuesday, he shared a photo of his pub terrace featuring three brand new large “jumbrellas”. Clarkson captioned the post: “Turns out Sue and Rachel had a point. @thefarmersdogpub did need big umbrellas after all! !”.

Clarkson acquired The Windmill, situated just outside Burford in Oxfordshire, last year and brought in Rachel and Sue to refurbish the venue, ensuring his ambitious five-week turnaround plan would stay on track.

However, Sue confessed that the challenge of revamping the pub in such a short timeframe was “daunting” and “not ideal,” but they pressed on with the project regardless.

Outlining their ambitious plans to their bewildered new boss, Rachel said to Clarkson: “First on our list, covering the deck with some jumbrellas. We needed to sign it off in about 40 minutes to guarantee their arrival. They’re three enormous umbrellas to cover the entire deck, approximately £40,000.”

Sue quickly added that the steep sum would encompass “electrics, lighting, and future-proofing” for the investment, only to be met by a stunned, slack-jawed reaction from the erstwhile Grand Tour presenter.

Echoing his disbelief, Clarkson eventually found words to say: “Sorry, you’re saying words… £40,000 for three umbrellas. £40,000 for three umbrellas!” He acknowledged the necessity for umbrellas but expressed his conviction that the cost was beyond reason, exclaiming, “I’m well aware we need umbrellas, I know that, but I genuinely believe that’s nuts.”

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have reportedly split following a ‘rough patch’ in their relationship, with the pair struggling to fix issues that have crept up of late

The real reason Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called it quits has reportedly been revealed. Earlier this week, it was reported that the American singer and the British actor had “quietly ended their engagement” but are apparently planning to wait until Katy’s tour concludes at the end of this year.

Neither Katy, 40, nor Orlando, 48, has yet to confirm or deny the rumours but those close to the on-off couple have hinted the split is more of “a rough patch” and the two stars are in a battle to fix their relationship before it’s too late.

Katy, previously married to British comedian Russell Brand, and the Pirates of the Caribbean actor began their love story back in 2016. Their romantic journey peaked with an engagement three years later, just ahead of Daisy’s arrival in 2020.

The pair did split briefly at the start of their relationship before finding their way back to one another and reuniting for good. However, it seems their nearly ten-year liaison is reportedly on the ropes due to recent professional struggles for Katy.

“There aren’t many people she can dump her emotions on, but obviously she can with Orlando. But with his work and juggling parenting, life as of late has put a strain on their relationship,” a source has said amid the speculation.

It’s been a tough time professionally for Katy of late, with the award-winning singer facing embarrassment after critics lambasted her latest album, and her space adventure invited further criticism, leaving the ‘I Kissed A Girl’ singer under intense scrutiny and putting a strain on her relationship.

But all is not lost, with the insider added that Katy and Orlando are going through a rough patch “but it’s not at the point of no return.” They told the DailyMail: “They know they must fix things, and they both want to figure it out. They haven’t been able to sit down and work on some of their issues. A breakup isn’t imminent, but they both know that they should focus on their relationship before it does become too late.”

Other sources allege that the lacklustre performance of Katy’s album titled ‘143’ put a strain on their bond, as Orlando tried to be supportive. PageSix suggests the couple are biding time until the conclusion of Katy’s ‘Lifetimes’ tour on December 7 before going public with their separation.

“It’s over,” confided the insider. “They’re just waiting until the tour is done before they split.” The Mirror has previously approached Katy and Orlando’s representatives for a comment regarding these claims.

Amid the drama, Katy has shared a charming behind-the-scenes clip of her five-year-old daughter Daisy Dove singing.The American singer posted a collection of pictures and videos to Instagram on Friday showing ‘tidbits’ from her world tour so far.

Katy, 40, is currently performing the Australian leg of her Lifetimes Tour, playing a series of shows in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Sydney.

“Tour liffffffeeee side quest tid bits,” she captioned the post, which showed Katy inhaling helium from a balloon, posing with her tour dancers and holding the key to Oklahoma City.

One clip, taken in Katy’s hotel room at Capella Sydney, showed Daisy Dove hiding behind a curtain and singing as her mum filmed the special moment. ‘The part where Daisy was playing behind the curtains warmed my heart,’ one fan wrote in the comments section.

Rumours that Katy is newly single intensified when the Road hitmaker made a telling comment on stage during a recent performance. The mum-of-one was performing the third of her Sydney concerts on Tuesday night when she was handed a packet of Tim Tam chocolate biscuits.

Katy was in the middle of performing of her 2008 heartbreak anthem I’m Still Breathing when she opened the packet and ate one of the treats. “This song is about a breakup, and this Tim Tam saved me,” the pop icon told the crowd during the brief interlude.

“Thank you,” she continued, before resuming her performance whilst kneeling down and offering biscuits to the front row audience members. Her remark about enduring a ‘breakup’ has only fuelled recent rumours that Katy and Orlando are encountering some difficulties.
