Mum of three Charlotte Dawson has been praised by fans as she embraced her new body in a summery yellow bikini, just months after giving birth to her baby daughter, Gigi Dawson Sarsfield.

At 32, Charlotte, who recently revealed her shock health battle, is not only a huge TV star and mother to three children but also the owner of her very own brand, Dawsylicious. The star took to social media to promote her tanning range, and what better way to do so than to show off her own tan in a bikini as the UK experiences a heatwave?

The brand, which started out as a wholesale clothing and footwear brand, is co-owned alongside her fiancé, Matt Sarsfield. Alongside this, she started up a new business venture, dedicated to tanning products called Dawsylicious Tanning – the brand she promotes in the bikini post.

Full of confidence and funny as ever, Dawson danced around her garden in a two-piece, all in the name of advertising her fake tan products. In the post, the star claimed to be feeling “chunky but funky” and continued to assure fans that she is happy, writing: “This is your sign to show you to wear that damn bikini x.”

Followers flooded the comments with words of encouragement, with one user writing: “Simply an encouragement to everyone. You’re just awesome.” Another fan thanked her for being so candid about her body, having recently given birth to her third child Gigi in March.

They wrote: “Thank you, Charlotte, for showing everyone the reality of body changes/sizes! We see so many bodies online and compare ourselves or think we have to be like that when the reality is it isn’t real life! So keep being you and being fab.”

One fan couldn’t help but share: “That body made, grew, birthed and fed three babies! It’s incredible, whatever shape and size.” Someone else added that they think the world should be “full of more people like you”.

It’s not the first time Dawson has got candid with her followers in this way; in fact, the influencer has created an entire image of being real about parenting and everything that comes with it. Her podcast Naughty Corner has been a huge part of this, and recently she even recorded an episode whilst breastfeeding her newborn and talking about the growth of her boobs during pregnancy.

The podcast description states: “This is the podcast where we share your outrageous tales of parenting fails. In each episode, join me, Charlotte Dawson, as I pop open a bottle of fizz and dive into hilariously relatable stories from mums like you and me. Every mum is welcome, as long as you aren’t afraid to bend the rules!”

Earlier this month the mother of three shared another revealing bikini picture, opening up about her body post-birth and reassuring her followers about the changes she’s been experiencing. The caption read: “When the bikini you packed doesn’t fit! Was totally gutted (literally!) to discover my fave holiday bikini doesn’t fit anymore…

Mbeumo ‘proven quality’ – but Man Utd still have striker dilemma

Getty Images
  • 57 Comments

One of Manchester United’s key priorities this summer was a search for goals.

Last season was United’s worst in the Premier League era, and a key reason was the paltry 44 goals they scored – the average of 1.15 per game their lowest in a top-flight season since 1973-74.

Bryan Mbeumo’s expected £65m move will take their guaranteed spending on attacking talent this summer to £127.5m, following the signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves.

But with both players expected to play in number 10 positions, do the club need a new central striker, or will Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee benefit from added firepower around them?

Chris Sutton, who won the Premier League with Blackburn Rovers, said: “United’s attack is clearly an area they need to improve. That’s why they have gone for Mbeumo, because I think he is someone they feel they can trust in all areas, in possession and out of it, with the work-rate and energy – and goals too.

“Mbeumo is absolutely not cheap, but that is the going rate for a proven Premier League player.

“They want to bring in signings who are not development players but players who have been there and done it. Mbeumo is one of those. Cunha too.

The end for Hojlund? Or a new opportunity?

By common consent, when United’s troublesome Premier League campaign came to an end in May, the key failing that had to be addressed was their lack of goals.

Most assumed that meant a new number nine would be signed.

That United made a big play for Liam Delap – available for £30m from Ipswich – before he signed for Chelsea indicated key figures at Old Trafford felt the same.

Yet now, more than £120m later and with two new additions more at home behind a main forward rather than as one, questions are being asked about whether they will bring in a number nine or if – despite huge reservations – they stick with Hojlund.

The reasoning for the latter would be simple.

In order to fund more expensive recruitment, they need to generate more finance and – aside from sell-on clauses for Anthony Elanga and Alvaro Carreras – they have not managed it.

So a big offer for Aston Villa’s England international Ollie Watkins is unlikely and, of the players available for nothing, the injury-hit Dominic Calvert-Lewin and veteran Jamie Vardy represent significant risk.

Though many thought they overpaid at the time, the recruitment team behind then manager Erik ten Hag felt it was worth signing off a £72m fee to bring in Hojlund from Italian club Atalanta.

At the time, Ten Hag said Hojlund had “huge potential” but he had “to prove it”. So far, he has not done so.

He scored just four league goals all season, with understudy Zirkzee only managing three.

It has to be said, Hojlund’s goals came from chances worth a measly 5.2 expected goals, showing the lack of opportunities he was being provided with – or making for himself.

Sutton said: “Have United been providing him with the chances and the opportunities? The answer to that is no.

“But also, you have to consider whether he has done well enough. Has he ever been a prolific goalscorer? That would be the nagging doubt and is something I have debated with United fans.

“It is not to say he doesn’t have time on his side, and his attitude is good too.”

But in a summer during which Carreras joined Real Madrid – fulfilling the promise many in the club’s academy felt he had before they were overruled by Ten Hag and others who believed the full-back was not quick enough to excel at the highest level – are they ready to give up on Hojlund just yet?

The 22-year-old’s contract does not expire until 2028. If they sold now, United wouldn’t receive close to the sum they paid for him.

There are many unanswered questions at Old Trafford as the Premier League opener against Arsenal approaches.

What information do we collect from this quiz?

‘Mbeumo will be expected to perform straight away’

Whatever the decision on United’s striker dilemma, there can be little argument the addition of Mbeumo – alongside Cunha – strengthens their firepower.

Only Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, Newcastle’s Alexander Isak and Manchester City’s Erling Haaland scored more than his 20 Premier League goals last season.

It was, though, the first time he has reached double figures for a top-flight club, and his expected goals (xG) statistic of 12.3 – which he outperformed by 7.7 goals – is something that would be difficult to repeat.

In the past five Premier League seasons, just 14 players have overperformed their xG by five goals or more.

Sutton said: “He has done well at Brentford but playing for Manchester United is very different. With respect to Brentford, there is no great expectation there. At United, he will be expected to perform straight away.

“He has experience, he is a good finisher and his versatility is a big positive – he can play as a central striker as well as on the wing, cutting inside off the right on to his left foot.

“But he has had one very good season where his numbers were very good, so the question is whether he can repeat that.”

The Cameroon international is not being bought just for his goals, though.

Mbeumo prefers to play on the right behind a striker – with Cunha expected to feature on the left – but also has the versatility to play centrally, offering another solution to the striker problem.

He topped the list for touches per 90 minutes for players who scored more than 15 goals last season – showing his involvement in play – and ranks as one of the best ball carriers in the league, consistently with an effective end product.

He was 17th on the list of top assisters – with seven – but in expected assists he led the way in the Premier League with 9.3 xA.

Alongside Cunha’s creativity, that can only be good news for whoever is chosen to play the central striker role.

“Consistency in those forward positions is what United are striving for, because they have not had it with, say, Alejandro Garnacho or Antony,” said Sutton.

“They are maybe thinking an older, more experienced player, who is more reliable, is what they need. That’s Mbeumo – he fits into Ruben Amorim’s system and he fits the bill as proven Premier League quality too.

“Amorim wants a harmonious camp as well as a consistent performer, not someone who is a 3/10 one week and a 9/10 the next.

Coldplay kiss cam update as Astronomer employee’s post deleted after awkward viral video

With the company changing its LinkedIn profile, the viral moment where two Astronomer colleagues were caught allegedly kissing in a romantic embrace at a Coldplay performance has taken a new direction.

A post shared by Software company Astronomer relating to its Head of HR Kristin Cabot has been removed, after she was caught in an embrace with CEO Andy Byron on a kiss cam at a Coldplay concert. The viral clip has taken the internet by storm after Coldplay’s Chris Martin called out the colleagues over their awkward reaction to being caught on camera.

Cabot and Byron were spotted with their arms around one another as Chris began filming members of his audience on the big screen during Coldplay’s performance at the Boston Gillette Stadium. Chris said, “Oh what? ” as the couple awkwardly reacted to being exposed on camera. They may be having an affair or just very shy. I’m not entirely certain.

The post from Astronomer now appears to have been deleted. In light of the scandal, Cabot was the subject of the LinkedIn post. Cabot was named the company’s Chief People Officer in the article, which was titled “An Exciting Day” according to Us Weekly.

The URL no longer functions, and the post has since been deleted. The current URL of the page reads “This post cannot be displayed.”

While the company last posted on LinkedIn yesterday, comments on all of its posts have since been turned off. The Mirror has reached out to Astronomer for comment.

Fans were quick to recognize Byron and Cabot in the original footage, which has amassed more than 17 million views on TikTok alone. Cabot joined Astronomer in November, and Byron praised her for her “exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management.”

She is a trusted leader at a number of growth-stage businesses, he continued, “She makes a perfect fit for Astronomer because of her passion for creating diverse, collaborative workplaces.” She claimed in a statement that her own energy was “energised by my conversations with Andy and the Astronomer leadership team about the opportunities that are available here.”

Cabot once said, “I like to think of my role as people strategy as opposed to traditional human resources because the real magic happens when the people strategy and the business strategy are aligned.”

Chris is currently in the middle of his worldwide tour with Coldplay bandmates Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion. They started back in 2022 and it’s due to come to an end at Wembley Stadium in London this September.

Heartbreaking question Fiona Phillips asked her husband 72 times on drive

Martin Frizell, Fiona Phillips’s husband, has described how her deteriorating health has made her more and more confused and isolated. He is unable to explain why she is being treated in the hospital.

Former This Morning editor Martin Frizell revealed in a deeply emotional interview how early-onset Alzheimer’s had had a significant impact on his wife Fiona Phillips.

Fiona’s diagnosis, which was devastating, was at the age of 61, and her condition has already gotten worse. He stated to Newsnight’s Victoria Derbyshire, “I used to say good days and bad days, but now I just say bad days or wretched days,” adding that the word “wretched” is a great one for it.

He recalled a heartrending taxi ride where Fiona, 64, was completely disoriented while she was taking a hospital appointment: “She asked me, “Where are we going?” 72 times.

Fiona was once a familiar face on TV(Image: Press Association)

She has a secondary pain, according to Martin, explaining that Fiona needed to see doctors for an unrelated condition. Where is the pain coming from, we are unsure. We’re not sure if it’s physiological.

She panics, and it’s unacceptable to just drive with that. “I couldn’t drive her.” Because I’m afraid, I wouldn’t take her on public transportation.

There is a good chance that someone might approach Fiona, he explained, which would cause confusion and distress because she still looks as she did when she was a regular face on TV.

He said Fiona was confused about the fact that she was in the taxi and kept saying, “We’re going to see the doctor, and hopefully he’ll take the pain away,” and then, literally 15 seconds later, she would say, “Where are we going?” “

Martin admitted in perhaps his most heartbreaking admission that he would have preferred it if his wife had been diagnosed with cancer rather than Alzheimer’s.

He said, “My mother died from cancer,” and I am aware of the effects that cancer can have. My father passed away from cancer.

However, I doubt Fiona will ever be able to enjoy a glass of wine again, walk on a beach properly again, take a trip to the theater, film a movie, drive a car, or prepare a meal for her children.

He continued, “My worry is that on her deathbed, whenever that may occur, and hopefully it will be a long time from now,”

According to Martin, there is always a chance that someone with cancer will recover from the condition or at least be slowed down. He added, however, that Alzheimer’s does not have any hope.

Former England international footballer John Barnes, political commentator Andrew Neil, and Heart FM DJ Toby Anstis all revealed their risk of developing 11 major illnesses, including cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s disease, in the documentary The Killer in Me, which was released in November 2007.

In August 2008, Fiona stepped down from helming ITV’s flagship Breakfast show GMTV Today, and, in a poignant moment, Martin shared a clip of her last words on the show, saying : “It’s been such a privilege sharing my mornings with you, and I won’t forget you.”

Man Utd agree £65m deal to sign Brentford’s Mbeumo

  • 470 Comments

Bryan Mbeumo’s £65 million bid for Manchester United has been accepted by Brentford.

Before Ruben Amorim’s squad travels to the United States on Tuesday for their pre-season tour, the Cameroon international might need to get checked in with the club.

After signings from left-back Diego Leon and forward Matheus Cunha, the 25-year-old winger will become United’s third summer signing.

At the beginning of June, United made their first offer, which totaled £55 million.

At the end of that month, they received a second bid of £62.5 million.

However, the Bees are happy with United’s most recent offer, which has an initial $65 million budget and potential upwards of $70 million with additional $57 million.

A player at his best?

In nearly every attacking metric, including goals and assists, chances created and touches in the opposition box, Mbeumo recorded career-best figures in the Premier League last year.

Also worth mentioning is his output in significant areas. He scored 32 times against the opposition, putting him in the third-place spot among Premier League players.

Mbeumo will have to perform right away, Mbeumo claims.

Brentford has a good reputation, but his experience with Manchester United is completely different. There are no high expectations in Brentford, in terms of potential. He will be expected to perform right away at United.

He can play both as a central striker and as a winger, cutting inside off the right on to his left foot, and he has experience. He is a good finisher.

However, he had a very strong season with excellent numbers, so it’s important whether he can build on that.

United are striving for consistency in those forward positions because they haven’t had success with, let’s say, Antony or Alejandro Garnacho.

Perhaps they believe they need a more reliable, older player with more experience. Mbeumo fits into Ruben Amorim’s system, and he also has Premier League experience.

They need to obviously improve with United’s attack. People complain about how they play at the back, with the back three Amorim wants, and how difficult it can be to play when you try to press high because everyone has to work hard and be so focused.
