As she shared a heartfelt message to her fans, former Saturdays singer Mollie King broke the tragic news that her family has been rocked by a devastating loss.

Mollie King has revealed her family has been rocked by a heartbreaking loss. The former Saturdays singer, who is engaged to sports star Stuart Broad, shared an emotional post on her social media.

She announced the devastating death of her beloved dog Alfie as she emotionally thanked him for being the “best little companion”. Mollie shared a series of adorable photos of her pooch over the years as he was there for huge moments of her life. The mum-of-two wrote: “Goodbye to my little boy, Alfie. Alfie was by my side for almost half my life and I can’t believe he is no longer here. I still remember the day I brought him home and he was tiny enough to fit in my shoe.

He promised to accompany me on numerous adventures because we had so much fun together! Even though he was a baby, he would always be there for me, ready to snuggle up on the sofa with his sweet smile whenever I needed to.

She continued, “I feel so incredibly lucky to have had him for so long in my life.” My angel boy, now sleep well. I appreciate you being my best friend.

Mollie was flooded with support from her fans and celebrity pals as Giovanna Fletcher commented: “Nooooooooo!!! Sending so much love! Xxxx.” Rachel Stevens added: “Aww so sorry Molly sending so much love,” while Amanda Holden left a red heart and paw emoji.

Just last month, Mollie admitted to feeling like she was in “survival mode” after welcoming her second child. The couple share daughter Annabella together and welcomed Lilliana, their second baby girl at the end of last year.

Former cricket player Ian McLaren headed to South Africa for work shortly after the birth of their second child. She gushed about how wonderful it was to spend time with her family, and he has since returned to the family home.

“I feel like the first few weeks – it was the same with Annabella – I did find it quite tricky,” the star told MailOnline. “You’re just really in that sort of survival mode of, you’re up all night, you’re feeding constantly, but now I’m at that stage where I’m really able to sort of enjoy it and take the most of each moment.”

Despite having difficulties, Mollie claimed that moving from having two babies was much simpler than having none at once. She then stated that when Annabella was born, she “knew nothing” about motherhood.

Mollie announced the birth of her second daughter through an adorable black and white image showing four hands – hers, her fiancé’s and their two children.

Welcome to the world’s beautiful baby Liliana, she wrote in the caption. We’re bursting with joy! Our young family could not have imagined receiving the most ideal Christmas gift.

Stuart then shared the post on to his Instagram story, alongside the caption: “Happy New Year to you all! The end of 2024 was very special being in our little newborn bubble.”

Following criticisms that one of the group called for the murder of Tory MPs, Keecap’s upcoming performance at the Eden Project was postponed, the band’s show has been postponed. Following the release of footage that showed one member allegedly saying, “The only good Tory is a dead Tory,” the rap group apologized earlier this week to the families of murdered MPs Sir David Amess and Jo Cox. Your neighborhood politician should be dead.

Later, they criticized the newly surfaced footage as part of a “coordinated smear campaign” against them and refuted claims that they also supported Hamas and Hezbollah. They want you to think that genocide is more harmful than words. Let’s be clear: We never have or have supported Hamas or Hezbollah. Always, we condemn all acts of violence against civilians. Never is that okay. Given the history of our country, they wrote on Instagram, “We know this more than anyone.”

The band’s July concert at the Eden Project has now been canceled, the venue’s in Cornwall revealing the news in a statement.

The Kneecap show at Eden Project, which was scheduled for July 4, 2025, has been canceled, according to a spokesperson for Eden Sessions. Tickets will be purchased directly from the seller, and they will receive a full refund.

Beginning on April 30th, 2025, the refund procedure will begin. The original payment cards used to process refunds will be used. Customers should allow six business days for their accounts to receive money.

Keir Starmer publicly denounced the group’s comments, leading to the cancellation of the program. The official spokesperson for the prime minister said he thought the remarks were “completely unacceptable” and that he “decries them with all the force possible.”

Meanwhile, Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the opposition, said that Kneecap’s “anti-British hatred” had no place in our society because she urged them to take action.

The Metropolitan Police confirmed just days ago that they were looking into the resurfaced videos as well as another in which a band member appeared to shout “up Hamas, up Hezbollah” to the crowd.

A video that is believed to have been a tidbit from a nightclub in November of 2024 has been sent to the Counter Terrorism Internet Referral Unit for evaluation and to see if any further police investigations are necessary, according to a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police. Another video that appears to be from a November 2023 event has also been made available to us.

After debuting on The Jamie Kern Lima Show, Meghan Markle made headlines. A body language expert has since claimed that the interview showed how “incredibly busy” the Duchess is.

Meghan Markle’s recent podcast appearance revealed how “busy” she is, a body language expert has claimed. The Duchess of Sussex recently made her podcast debut during an appearance on The Jamie Kern Lima Show in which she gave listeners a glimpse inside her life as she discussed topics including parenting, marriage and her career.

At one point in the interview, Meghan, 43, broke down in tears after opening up about writing nightly emails to Prince Archie, five, and three-year-old Princess Lilibet. Revealing she’d show them the emails when they turned 16 or 18, she explained: “It’s for them to be able to look back and go ‘gosh she has loved us so much’. And that is I think the best part about being a mom.”

Following the release of the interview, body language expert Judi James has dissected Meghan’s appearance on the podcast. According to Judi, Meghan became “overwhelmed” when speaking about her children as well as her relationship with Prince Harry.

“Meghan uses body language to suggest she is overburdened again, but this time with love, not exhaustion,” she said in her references to her husband and children.

However, Judi added that “one big theme” of the interview was how “incredibly busy” Meghan is. Since stepping back as a senior royal in 2020, the Duchess of Sussex has embarked on a number of different projects including her As Ever brand and Netflix series With Love, Meghan.

She poses in a pose of “happy agony” and grunts while using the eye flutter and sighs to illustrate and emphasize this crucial message. Her other “busy” rituals include a sigh and her fingers becoming spiked, which indicate muscle tension under pressure, Judi told Casino. ca.

The most dramatic gesture of all is when Meghan raises her entire hand up in a masking ritual as her face contorts behind the hand, suggesting exhaustion.

The podcast interview comes amid speculation over whether Meghan, who has already written a children’s book called The Bench, would one day write a memoir. Back in 2023 Prince Harry made headlines following the release of his book Spare, which became the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time.

The Duchess of Sussex responded, “Yes, maybe, for sure,” when asked if she would write another book. She quickly clarified, “And then, you know, I think people are frequently enthralled if I’m going to write a memoir, but I have much more to live than that.”

Meghan and Prince Harry both expressed surprise at the release of As Ever, and she also gushed about him. That man, you know, loves me so much, and we’ve built something, “H”. We have two healthy, beautiful children and a beautiful life. When you reach Super Mario Bros’ final level, the goal, and other details, she said, “I always think about it.”

To save the princess and slay the dragons. And that’s my husband, who is just out there, doing everything he can to ensure that our family is safe, protected, and that we are uplifted while still making time for date nights.

READ MORE: Kate Middleton borrows from Meghan’s stylebook with this wardrobe classic – shop styles from £35

We’ve found the perfect outfit to copy Kate Middleton’s sunny-weater ensemble for less money if you’re looking for fashion inspiration that will carry you through the summer in style.

Kate Middleton attended the Sydney Easter Show wearing a stunning white lace frock in 2014, but it quickly sold out. Kate chose to wear her Zimmermann Roamer Day Dress to Wimbledon that year because she had worn it before for other sunny spring occasions.

However, Kate’s dress is no longer on the UK website and cost a steep £236 if you want to wear it to the beach. However, we’ve discovered a way to copy Kate’s style without breaking the bank, with Next’s alternative white lace mini dress selling for less than £70.

With this wardrobe classic, Kate Middleton borrows from Meghan’s stylebook. Shop styles starting at £35.

This Lipsy white lace mini dress replicates Kate’s understated, all-over lace design, which exudes understated luxury, and has the same modest, high neckline that is appropriate for all occasions. This mini dress is ideal for dressing up or down, depending on your plans, and it’s set to give your spring wardrobe some glamour.

This dress will make a statement at all special occasions and summer parties, whether you’re out for brunch or going to Wimbledon. It has a flattering lantern shape and gorgeous lace construction. With its timeless silhouette and length, Kate’s dress is perfect for summer.

The dress is fullystocked in all sizes, starting at 6 to 18, with an alternative petite length for those on the shorter side, despite Kate’s preference for longer sleeves. This mini, which costs £65, will quickly become a wardrobe staple for spring and summer because it is so affordable.

Check out this Oasis Lace High-Neck Mini Dress from Debenhams for less money, or this Allegra K Women’s Mini Lace Dress, which costs $35.99 on Amazon, for something different from Kate’s style.

Kate Middleton wears a classic blue shirt like Meghan Markle’s most recent outfit, and we’ve found a location where you can purchase this wardrobe essential with comparable styles starting at just $35.

Kate Middleton seems to have taken some styling tips from Meghan Markle during her recent visit to Mull, Scotland – an outing that also happened to mark her and Prince William’s 14th wedding anniversary.

The Princess of Wales chose a posh country outfit that included a blue button-up shirt, tweed blazer (her personal choice is a Holland Cooper Double Breasted Blazer), brown skinny pants, and chunky brown boots.

And if the outfit felt familiar, it might be because Meghan Markle was recently spotted in a similar style blue shirt during her appearance on Prince Harry’s Netflix documentary, Heart of Invictus.

The exact shirt Meghan chose was J, though we don’t know exactly what button-up Kate is wearing (although we believe it might be Max Mara’s offering). The classic Garçon shirt from Crew in the timeless “Blue Eoe” color is available in a cotton poplin version.

Next has a fragrance for $ 24 that evokes my all-time favorite Chanel scent.

The classic blue shirt is a wardrobe essential and even has the royal seal of approval because both women wear the same piece. It’s one of those pieces that can be worn with jeans, a blazer, or both.

We’ve rounded up our favorite styles below for you to use as inspiration for some blue shirts.

Blue shirts are available to purchase.

Max Mara Light Linen Shirt

Available for £205

Max Mara’s blue shirt is the one that looks the closest to Kate. The front of this linen shirt has two utility-style pockets, just like Kate’s, and the textured detailing is apparent in this one.

This summer staple will keep you cool and dry all summer long thanks to its 100% linen construction. For a Princess Diana-inspired appearance, simply swap out the Princess’ winter boots and jackets for a pair of white Bermuda shorts.

Gap Blue 100% Linen Oversized Shirt

Here, you can purchase a £75 item.

One of those throw-on staples you’ll want to keep all summer long is this oversized shirt from GAP. It’s breathable, light, and machine washable, making it the ideal item to pack in a suitcase because it’s made of 100% soft linen.

We advise pairing this with a pair of Ecru-colored jeans and some edgy, modern ballet flats to style it.

The Boyfriend 100% Linen Shirt Has Nothing Underneath.

Here is a £120 price.

You really can’t go wrong with the high-quality button-up shirts that Meghan Markle favors. This shirt is the kind of piece that looks great on vacations but also looks great in business.

Its flattering, casual cut gives off a “boyfriend” vibe, which is why it is called “The Boyfriend” shirt.

Get ready for the season of camping and festivals with a self-inflating mattress that not only promises durability but has also been touted as ‘extremely comfortable’ by thrilled shoppers

With festival season on the horizon and the time for camping fast approaching, now is the time to start upgrading your outdoor sleeping arrangements to keep you comfy no matter where you lay your head. And shoppers may have found just the ticket with this self-inflating mattress on Amazon that promises ultimate comfort and durability, meaning it can cope with any terrain.

Touted for its “extreme comfort,” this Tatuner Self-Inflating Mattress could be just what you need for a hassle-free camping trip. It comes rolled up in a small bag that can easily be stored and carried. This mattress adopts a flat design, which promises to be no different from your home bed. No matter where you are, this camping sleeping pad is set to provide a homely feel wherever you pitch your tent.

Using the most advanced self-inflating technology, abandoning the old and arduous inflation method, this mat is set to be ready for bed while others are blowing up their traditional airbeds.

The sleeping pad, which is inflated to 193 cm x 70 cm x 7 cm, is perfect for outdoor activities like overnight festivals or camping, where it can seamlessly fit into smaller tents. However, the bed is filled with sponges, which means it still has a certain weight and volume even after compression, making it unsuitable for light travel. But it is a top pick if you’re heading on an adventure in a car or motorhome.

Boasting a 7cm thickness, Flex Foam and outdoor-grade tear-resistant fabric, this mattress promises to provide your body with a comfortable and stable sleep, akin to snoozing on your bed. Waving goodbye to stones and branches underground, damaging the air cushion or keeping you up at night, this mat strikes the perfect balance between comfort and durability. Plus, it scores bonus points for being virtually silent and waterproof, with no more crinkly or squeaky noise.

Currently on sale for £71.34, shoppers have gone wild for this mattress as they leave their rave reviews. One 5-star rater beams: “This is extremely comfortable and durable. In summer I sometimes sleep on it for a short siesta. I store it inflated because it takes time to self-inflate to its full potential the first time. For camping, some may find this mattress more bulky and less portable than desired but it is unequalled in comfort, size, and durability. It retains its form and pressure very well even after multiple uses and after a year of storage, I barely need to add any air to it. The pillow however is too low to my liking.”

And another chimes in: “First off, great product. I was a bit unsure some of the other reviews might have been good because the person sleeping on the matt weighed next to nothing so a few sheets of toilet roll would have given then a good night’s sleep, and clocking on at around 115kg thought that I might be just that bit too heavy. Nope, not at all. Never once felt the ground beneath, just the comfortable memory foam layer and nothing else.”

They go on to add: “Material is excellent and easy to clean just wiping it down. I used a fleece blanket on top of mine just for that extra comfort, but the material is soft and I wouldn’t have had an issue sleeping directly on it.”
