X Factor star left ‘devastated’ as they’re rushed to hospital in excruciating pain

Myles Stephenson, who is best known for his time in RAK-SU, has announced a serious injury that will keep him off his feet for the foreseeable future. The 33-year-old singer shared a hospital photo showing his leg heavily bandaged following what he described as a painful sports-related incident. The injury occurred during a football game, and the outcome was severe.

“Only gone and ruptured my Achilles haven’t I?” he told fans, confirming the diagnosis with clear frustration. Facing an extended period of recovery, the former X Factor winner admitted the reality of the situation was starting to sink in. “I’ve realised how stressful the next few months are going to be on crutches,” he wrote. “Work, family, simple things like tidying/washing. I am not looking forward to it.”

At home, Myles is a hands-on dad to his two young children, Shiloh, three, and Sahara, two, whom he shares with wife Keli Hall. The injury is likely to present extra challenges for the family, especially given their son Shiloh’s additional needs.

Last year, Myles shared with followers that Shiloh had suffered an undetected stroke as a baby, resulting in a diagnosis of Hemiplegic cerebral palsy. The condition, caused by irreversible brain damage, affects the right side of Shiloh’s body and requires him to wear splints and a mobility frame for support.

Speaking to Mirror last year, Myles said: “I had heard of cerebral palsy but didn’t know much about it. Shiloh has missed quite a lot of milestones, there were a number of things he couldn’t do. It’s showing more now that he’s getting older and can walk, we can see the effect of cerebral palsy more prominently.”

The former I’m A Celebrity campmate has kept fans updated on his son over the years, including having announced last year that Shiloh could have botox injections to “relax the muscles” in his leg. More recently, Myles shared an update on Instagram as he shared footage of his son walking.

Singer Myles wrote in the post: “For the first ever our Shiloh has been able to walk with his heel down! He recently underwent Botox injections into his calf and hamstring and then put in a cast for two weeks. The reason for the Botox injections is to relax muscles on the side affected by hemiplegia.”

He continued by writing on the platform: “This was the first real positive in his journey with CP. His excitement in being able to put his foot down brought Keli to tears. He even made a friend yesterday and danced with a little girl who also got her cast off and walked with her heels down.”

Myles concluded with a message for his followers. He told them: “Now this isn’t always the result for everybody but for anybody debating whether to get injections. From OUR experience it is worth a shot! Good luck people.”

Beyond his personal life, Myles continues to work with his RAK-SU bandmates – Ashley Fongho, Jamaal Shurlan, and Mustafa Rahimtulla — as they push forward with new music. The group, who made history in 2017 by becoming the first all-male act to win The X Factor, experienced a rocky road after being dropped by Simon Cowell’s label just a year later – a move that left them “very upset and confused.”

In 2020, the group shared that Mustafa would be stepping away temporarily due to mental health struggles. Despite the setback, RAK-SU has remained active in the music scene, continuing to release material to the delight of loyal fans.

Now, with a long rehabilitation ahead, Myles is hoping the injury won’t derail his work or slow down the group’s momentum.

‘My son cut me off like Brooklyn Beckham – he came crawling back for one reason’

A mum, who is known for her controversial views, believes Brooklyn Beckham will soon make amends with his family after his alleged feud with his parents – as her son also ditched her

Brooklyn Beckham is reportedly caught up in a feud with his family, but one parent knows all too well what it feels like and said the 26-year-old will return to the fold for one particular reason.

Carla Bellucci, who has been dubbed ‘Britain’s most hated mum’, has opened up about her own family drama and likened it to the reported rift between Brooklyn and his parents. The Hertfordshire mum, 42, who gained notoriety for her unconventional parenting methods, has often sparked public fury – she even encouraged her daughter to join OnlyFans as soon as she turned 18 to help fund her ‘early retirement’.

Yet, it was her eldest son who first distanced himself from her, an act she describes as a “dagger through the heart.” Carla believes she understands what Victoria Beckham must be feeling amid rumours that Nicola Peltz, 30, is “isolating” Brooklyn from his family.

Following Brooklyn’s declaration that he will “always choose” Nicola in a recent video, Carla has shared her thoughts, predicting he’ll rue the decision and eventually come “crawling” back home, no matter how long it takes, reports the Daily Star.

Carla asserts that a mother’s love is unparalleled and reveals she’s reconnected with her own son after a previous dispute involving his girlfriend. “I think the feud is insane – family always comes first,” Carla remarked. “When s*** hits the fan, he will need his mum and dad, you can never forget blood is thicker than water. I think the girlfriends get in their heads. It’s so sad because one day they will need us!”.

She continued: “I’m afraid it will go all wrong, it always does, and then he will be crawling back with his tail between his legs. It’s just so sad how you can do all this for a kid then nothing. 18 years of their life, for what?”.

Speculation over the state of Brooklyn’s relationship with his parents, David and Victoria, surfaced earlier this month after he failed to attend either of his dad’s 50th birthday celebrations. The former footballer was reportedly left devastated without his eldest son there.

This followed a string of family events they had already missed, including Mother’s Day and Victoria’s birthday, which Brooklyn skipped in favour of Coachella with his wife Nicola. Adding to the family drama, Brooklyn also remained silent on social media for both his parents’ birthdays this year, something which is quite unusual for the Beckhams.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn and his brother Romeo are allegedly no longer on speaking terms due to Romeo’s relationship with Kim Turnbull. Brooklyn was involved with Kim a few years ago before meeting Nicola, but he’s said to be concerned about Kim’s motives in dating his younger brother.

Insiders also report that tensions between Victoria and Nicola have been growing since Brooklyn’s lavish Miami wedding, with the strained relations simmering over the past three years. While some of Nicola’s mates have branded David and Victoria as “emotionally abusive and toxic”, sources close to the Beckhams suggest that Nicola is the one “pulling the strings” and shaping an “unhealthy relationship.”

No matter who bears the blame, Carla relates painfully to the ordeal because it has “so many similarities” to her own woes of having an estranged son. Her empathy lies with the Beckhams in what she describes as a “lose-lose situation”.

Despite renewing contact with her own son and his partner, Carla admits the dynamic has shifted. She shared: “I just think it’s horrific and I feel for the Beckhams,” as she understands the pain and confusion from seeing her own son just once a year.

Carla noted that there is “no love like a mother’s love”, but has chosen to move on from the family feud and “live life to the fullest as it’s out of our hands.” She also spoke about the difficulty in the situation for siblings, expressing how her other children “miss their big brother”, which might be similar for Romeo, Cruz and Harper.

“There’s so many similarities to the Beckhams. I feel like it’s a constant no win situation,” Carla added, “Brooklyn will wake up and realise he made the worst move of his life, you only get one mum and dad. You should appreciate them as you never know when you may need them.”

Miriam Margolyes says she ‘doesn’t have long to live’ after major heart surgery

The actress who is best known for playing Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter films, Miriam Margolyes, has shared a heartbreaking update on her health because she fears there won’t be much time left to live.

Harry Potter star Miriam Margolyes has given a heart-rending update on her health, revealing her fear that she might not have much time left. The 84-year-old actress, known for her role as Professor Sprout in the magical franchise, opened up about her health concerns during an interview with The Times.

She admitted that she would not be willing to leave performing when she realized that she had only five or six years to live, and that she was likely going to pass away in five or six. It’s so enjoyable. I’m not strong enough to play roles that don’t put me in wheelchairs.

Despite her vibrant career, the Oxford-born actress has faced several health challenges over the years, including spinal stenosis, arthritis, and rheumatism. In 2023, she underwent a procedure to replace an aortic valve, avoiding more invasive open-heart surgery.

On Jessie and Lennie Ware’s Table Manners podcast, she joked, “I have a cow’s heart now,” adding, “Well, not the whole heart.” A cow’s aortic valve replaced my aortic valve. How prevalent is it, in my opinion. That operation was unknown to me. However, it prevents you from having “open heart surgery,” which would be significantly more invasive.

Miriam acknowledged that she still experiences pain and limitations despite having successful surgery. She has previously stated that she needs assistance from sticks, a walker, and a mobility scooter to move and that she is disabled.

Miriam openly discussed her health issues and status as a registered disabled person, telling Closer magazine, “I can’t walk very well, and I’m registered disabled. I seek out all kinds of assistance. I have a mobility scooter, which is much fun, whereas my previous two sticks and walker are so boring.

The acclaimed actress has never shied away from openly discussing her health problems, even suggesting that her limited mobility and pain may have prevented her performances at the Edinburgh Fringe.

She shared a personal story of her struggle with Metro and said, “I’m frequently in pain… bodily conditions make life difficult, so it’s unlikely I will do it again.” However, I enjoy connecting with audiences and imparting my knowledge and appreciation of Dickens.

Margolyes expressed concerns about providing enough carers to Radio Times, but she hasn’t kept her worries about future care needs a secret either.

She further expanded on her thoughts while visiting Loose Women, where she admitted: “One day I will need carers. I want to be comfortable and I want them to be properly paid for. It is really because I want to make money though and they pay me to do it.”

Maura Higgins wasted no time in celebrating her closest friend Molly-Mae Hague’s birthday on Monday with a heartfelt social media tribute. The 34-year-old Irish TV personality flooded her Instagram Story with a collection of touching photos capturing moments shared with Molly-Mae, who turned 26.

Maura wrote, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY, my special girl.” “Love you millions and amp; forever proud of the woman you are,” he said. Images from Molly-Mae’s Amazon Prime show premiere, Behind It All, and other glitzy moments from the YouTuber’s 2021 PrettyLittleThing launch event were displayed in the gallery. The pair were seen together walking hand-in-hand through Paris’s streets during a memorable girls’ getaway, which was particularly sweet. A playful, humorous selfie that highlighted their close friendship also appeared on the other end.

Their friendship dates back to 2019, when the pair first crossed paths on Love Island, both vying for the attention of boxer Tommy Fury. Ultimately, Tommy chose Molly-Mae, and the couple now share a two-year-old daughter named Bambi.

It comes as Molly-Mae pulled out all the stops ahead of her birthday on the weekend. The multi-millionaire, who turned 26 today, treated her pals and her daughter, Bambi, two, to a lavish trip to Disneyland Paris, where no expense was spared.

Sharing snaps from the special occasion, the mum-of-one told her fans the mother and daughter duo had made magical memories in the French capital, which started when they hopped onboard a swanky private jet as they jetted off from the UK.

The “ultimate influencer” styled off the celebrations by sharing a photo of Bambi sitting next to a huge cream cake and several cut-outs of Molly-Mae sporting Disney ears. Then, along with a laughing emoji, she posted a photo of Bambi on a carousel in Disneyland with the caption “Mummy, I want to go on my own horse.”

The group then enjoyed crepes before heading off to the Magic Kingdom as Molly-Mae shared a photo of herself hugging her pal with the caption “Eyes red from hayfever and exhaustion, but what a day”!

Then, she shared a photo of Bambi and her pal getting ready for bed, telling everyone else that their birthday was “the most perfect day ever.”

Following her recent trip to Dubai with Tommy and Bambi earlier this month, Molly Mae is in Following her heels in Paris. Unfortunately, the Love Islander’s revelation that she ended up in a hospital after experiencing “excruciating pain” hindered that trip.

She said in her most recent YouTube vlog that she thought she had a blood clot after skipping a lot on the way home and in the hours that followed. Molly-Mae claimed she needed help because she was in pain and had a swollen leg, among other symptoms.

She updated her devoted followers on her health by saying, “My first A&amp, E experience was last night, guys. It was incredibly strange. She claimed that she had never been to A&amp, E before and that her most recent visit was “the weirdest experience.”

“I thought I had a blood clot, and half-way through today I thought my leg had a blood clot.” I was obviously on the plane for almost 8 hours when I was returning from Dubai, and I probably shouldn’t have. They say you must keep your legs moving and keep walking on long flights, without question. I hardly ever drink water, which is what I did.

In the middle of the agonizing call, Molly-Mae claimed to have called NHS 111 and that she had told the operator that her leg was “lightly swollen” and “hot” in the middle of the discomfort. She claimed to have received a doctor’s advice to “go straight to A&amp, E.”

However, after “waiting for hours,” she made the decision to leave before finally getting some sleep, where she was both relieved and somewhat relieved of the pain.

Following the tragic passing of One Direction singer Liam Payne in Argentina last year, Kate Cassidy has posted a new “sign” from her late ex-boyfriend Liam Payne on social media.

Liam Payne’s grieving ex-girlfriend Kate Cassidy has shared the latest ‘sign’ from the late singer following his tragic death last year. The One Direction singer died at the age of 31 after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina in October 2024.

Now, Kate has taken to social media to share what she considered to be a message from Liam months on from his death. The star shared a screenshot of the 4,444 shares on one of her social media posts, writing alongside it, “Hi Liam,” with a white heart emoji. Kate has previously spoken about how 444 was her and Liam’s angel number – a pattern of numbers that signifies a message of love and support.

Kate and Liam both believed in that particular angel number in her heartbreaking tribute to him at the time of his passing.

We spent a few weeks sat outside enjoying a beautiful evening of living together, she wrote. Even though you told me not to look at it, I keep your note close. Me and Kate are engaged and together forever, according to the statement, “444.”

“Liam, I know we’ll be together forever, but things didn’t go our way.” You’ll be there for me forever. My guardian angel has been given. We’ll be with you wherever I go for the rest of my life and the rest of my life. Forever yours, Katelyn 444. “

Earlier this month, court documents revealed that Liam’s ex Cheryl Tweedy had been granted power of administration of his estate after he died without writing a will. The star shares eight-year-old son Bear with Cheryl and left behind £24.3 million.

Kate Cassidy broke her social media silence shortly after it was revealed that Liam had left behind £28,595,000, but that Kate would not inherit anything. She posted a light-hearted post just hours afterwards, sharing a snap revealing her bag’s contents – a Starbucks snack and hair extensions.

Meanwhile, friends of Cheryl revealed that she “will do the right thing” by Bear, who is set to inherit his father’s fortune. “It is a small consolation that Bear will never want for anything, that he will at least benefit from that. Liam had some very sensible people around him for a time and he adored Bear so much. He always wanted to do the right thing by him financially,” a source close to Liam told Mail Online.

Phoebe Bishop: Bizarre airport riddle emerges as final phone call with boyfriend revealed

On May 15, Pheobe Bishop, 17, was reported missing and was supposed to take a flight to meet her boyfriend, but she has since been missing. Recently, new details have emerged.

Since May 15, Pheobe Bishop has been missing, and a search is raging for her. Her phone call with her boyfriend and disturbing CCTV footage have since been revealed, along with details about her most recent movements.

The 17-year-old vanished without a trace on May 15 when she was last seen leaving her home in Gin Gin, Queensland. Police believed that Sophie, who had been living with Tanika Bromley and James Wood, was scheduled to board a flight to Brisbane at 7:30 am and then travel to Perth to meet her boyfriend.

The pair drove Pheobe for 40 minutes to Bundaberg Airport, according to detectives. The teenager never arrived on her scheduled flight, but she was dropped off at the airport.

There is no evidence that the couple was involved in her disappearance, despite the fact that they were detained by the police but were later released without charges. Although it is unclear why the teenager lived with the couple, her disappearance was suggested by social media posts she had previously made.

Pheobe claimed in a previous social media post that she had no longer “see nor talk” to Kylie Johnson, her mother. She stated that although she had spent years in and out of the house, “we’re not going back” and that “it’s better like this.”

Continue reading the article.

Pheobe called her boyfriend just before she was scheduled to board the flight to Brisbane. She didn’t check in for her flight to see her boyfriend, according to a family member who was speaking to her on the phone at 8:30 am, according to The Sun.

“Her phone has been off at this point,” she declared. No one has ever seen her and she hasn’t contacted anyone at all. “Some reports also claim that none of her social media accounts have been active since she disappeared.” Additionally, it is said that she last used her bank account on May 14, the day before she vanished.

She was never discovered on CCTV despite being 6 feet tall and having red hair as a teenager. However, new CCTV footage emerged that shows a car driving through Gin Gin at 10.30am on the day the teen was last seen, two hours after the teen was believed to have been dropped off at the airport, similar to the one Pheobe had been traveling in before she vanished.

According to The Courier Mail, Bromley owns a Hyundai ix35, which is at the center of this case. Police also made it known that they had discovered an interesting item inside a national park on Friday.

In connection with their investigation, police seized a gray Hyundai ix35, and are now asking the public for information on dashcam or CCTV footage that might help them find the teenager. The Good Night Scrub National Park, which is located just outside Gin Gin and is about an hour’s drive from where Pheobe was last reported to have been seen, was also combbed by search dogs.

Pheobe’s mother described her daughter in a heartfelt statement as the investigation into her disappearance continues despite speculations that there may be a family rift. She remarked, “Who is Pheobe? ” Phee has always had strong will and lived up to her own standards. She’s always been referred to as my “Wild Gypsy Banshee.”

I’ve told everyone since Phee’s birth that she’s the one I’ve always anticipated when I call from abroad and say, “Hey Mumzie, I’m in Amsterdam and checking in,” You can’t control Phee’s spirit, show compassion, or fight for his life. She is sassy, tenacious, and loves people more than anyone I’ve ever met.
