BBC’s Sara Cox says ‘I’m sorry’ as she addresses family concern

Motherhood and how she managed to balance her career with her newfound success in the recently completed five-day, 135-mile Children’s Marathon challenge.

Sara Cox has revealed that she often tells her children that she’s “sorry” as she discussed a particular family concern. Sara, who recently completed an epic five-day, 135-mile marathon challenge for Children in Need, recently opened up about motherhood and how she managed to balance it with her career.

Sara has three children: a daughter, Lola Anne, with her ex-husband, DJ Jon Carter, and a son and daughter, Isaac and Renee, with her husband, the advertising executive Ben Cyzer, whom she married in 2013.

A BBC Radio 2 drivetime host, the Bolton native first sought a career in modelling prior to her move to broadcasting, landing roles on Channel 4’s The Girlie Show, MTV and The Big Breakfast.

In a recent interview, Sara opened up about the fears she had for her job when she initially went on maternity leave, revealing that she found it “unsettling” and was left wondering what her career would “be like afterwards”.

Sara told The Times Magazine : “When you first go on maternity leave, it’s unsettling. You wonder what your career will be like afterwards. Luckily, when I had my two younger children I was with my husband, Ben, and had a great support system.

You always seem to have taken a few steps back, even though I was able to return to work. I frequently tell the kids, “I’m sorry I’m not there, I’m sorry I missed that,” but they are aware of what I do.

Because their mother was absent, I hope they won’t need therapy in the future. “

It comes shortly after Sara raised the astonishing sum of more than £11 million (as of November 24) for Children in Need through her gruelling charity challenge, which was the equivalent of five marathons.

Beginning her trek in Kielder Forest, Northumberland, on November 10, the radio star journeyed across four counties in an arduous mission that ended on Friday, November 14, in Pudsey, West Yorkshire.

Once she completed the trek, Sara, whose challenge was the longest-ever taken on by a Radio 2 presenter, admitted that it was the “hardest thing” she’d ever undertaken. She made the comments to Scott Mills on Radio 2, noting how she’s now an “honorary Yorkshirewoman”.

The hardest thing I’ve ever done, according to Sara, is the “absolutely pain I’ve never experienced” But then, I’ve never gotten close to so many amazing women who have just fueled my life.

I’m A Celeb’s Ant and Dec gasp as Vogue Williams takes on gruelling trial

In the most recent Bushtucker Trial, Vogue Williams is seen battling and bruising as she puts her physical will to the test.

Vogue Williams is seen taking on a gruelling Bushtucker Trial that puts her agility to the test in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

On Saturday’s episode, the leggy Irish model attempts to win stars for the camp, and she does just that. Vogue, 40, appears to be getting bruised and battered as she maneuvers her way around the obstacle course in an effort to avoid being hit by a wrecking ball in the teaser trailer.

She is seen dropping into the water and slipping as she bashes her abdomen off a platform in a preview of the trial. The fall makes show hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly gasp as Ant exclaims, “Your poor hips.” The trial comes after the first camp eviction took place on Friday. Sports pundit and former England Lioness Alex Scott was the first celebrity to get the boot after a public vote.

Alex, 41, was the bookies favourite to be given the axe, with Heart radio host Kelly Brook rated closely behind her. Alex was not greeted by her girlfriend, singer Jess Glynne, when she exited the camp, leading fans to question why. Jess then revealed a tragic reason for her absence as she showed her support for Alex. She said that her mother suffered “a major stroke and needed urgent brain surgery”.

Jess opened up, saying, “My woman may have left far earlier than she ever deserved, but I’m so unbelievably proud of her.” She didn’t receive the airtime to demonstrate just how amazing she really is, and this is only the start.

I wanted to share something personal because I know people will ask me why I wasn’t there at the bridge’s end. My mother recently had a significant stroke that required urgent brain surgery. My family has been through a very difficult, life-changing time, and I’ve been forced to stay close. Alex would always prefer to take me where I’m most in need. I’m eager to have her back with me. After a phone vote, which insiders described as “incredibly close,” Ant and Dec announced Alex’s exit.

It’s like being free, Alex said. Such a wonderful experience has been had. Both mentally and physically, it has been difficult. She continued, “It’s tough in there – always getting water and firewood.”

The football broadcaster opened up about their relationship while she was a part of the program. Ruby Wax, her campmate, asked if she wanted to wed Jess, and she responded, “I’ll get married to her, Rubes! “

The former football player also discussed sneaking banned salt into camp, which she sprinkled on dinner after being removed from the house. I simply grabbed a few drops of salt and put them in my sock, Alex continued. My campmates were involved. And they still wish they had salt every day.

She then defended Shona McGarty, saying: “It will change her and give her the confidence to be brilliant at life.”

Scotland take Euros silver as Sweden win final

Scottish Curling

With Sweden defeating Rebecca Morrison’s rink 7-5 in the final, Scotland lost to them in the race for gold at the European Curling Championships.

Team Morrison, who won four of their first six matches in Finland before losing four of them in the semi-final against Switzerland, set up the game against Anna Hasselborg’s rink. Last year, Team Morrison won bronze medals and placed second in the competition.

In the fifth and seventh ends, the Swedes took command with twos after Scotland had already defeated them in the round-robin final.

Morrison, Jen Dodds, Sophie Sinclair, and Sophie Jackson only managed one of the three three extra ends, so they all had to settle for silver.

JENNIE BOND: ‘Don’t blame Meghan Markle over latest bizarre move- it’s not her fault’

In her most recent glossy magazine interview, Meghan Markle made an unexpected move involving her title, which raised eyebrows.

Meghan Markle may have made a string of revealing bombshells in her latest big move magazine interview. But it seems an unexpected moment written by the interviewer as she arrived to quiz the Duchess of Sussex is what has really got people talking.

In the chat with glossy magazine Harper’s Bazaar, Meghan gushed over husband Prince Harry, revealing she was drawn to his “childlike wonder and playfulness”. She also revealed how pleased she was that her children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were able to watch her as she bravely took the step from making jam in her kitchen to forming her lifestyle brand, As Ever.

However, one scene in the interview made Meghan mocked, when the journalist revealed that the house manager grandly introduced her as “Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex” as she met the former actress for the second time at a New York home despite no one else glaringly showing up.

Meghan has previously been criticized for holding onto her royal title despite Harry and Meghan deciding to step down from their respective positions five years ago.

And despite royal expert Jennie Bond believing the introduction was ‘absurd’, she told the Mirror if might not have necessarily been Meghan’s fault.

The former BBC royal correspondent explained: “It sounds so absurd, given the context that this was the second time the interviewer was meeting Meghan, and the first had been so relatively informal, sharing burger and chips at a restaurant.

So I have a feeling that this was just a house manager being overly pompous about having a Duchess inside. American people typically anticipate titles very much.

The staff at a friend’s house probably had an overzealous attitude. It simply doesn’t have the same warm-hearted, huggable Meghan that is depicted elsewhere. Therefore, I don’t believe we should start praising Meghan for this.

Meghan and Harry and the kids have been celebrating Thanksgiving in the US recently.

And ahead of the US Thanksgiving holiday, the couple took their rarely seen son and daughter for an unplanned outing to a food pantry serving the locals.

In a series of photos posted to her Instagram stories, Meghan and Harry can be seen smiling as they prepared meals at the Our Big Kitchen Los Angeles (OBKLA), a community-run non-profit kitchen that prepares and distributes meals for people in the city experiencing hardship.

Harry wore an oblong apron with the OBKL logo and a black cap while Meghan was pictured wearing a white cap and a black apron with the couple’s Archewell Foundation’s blue logo.

Meghan’s signature phrase for the images read “show up, do good,” which serves as the mission of the Archewell Foundation. Following the visit, the Archewell Foundation stated that it “continues to put compassion into action by serving and uplifting communities both locally and globally.”

We honor those who work every day to ensure that no one is forgotten and that our neighbors’ needs are met, the statement read.

Stranger Things star Sadie Sink wears one concealer on repeat and it’s 30% off

Sadie Sink, the star of Stranger Things, has been sharing some of her beauty secrets, and her signature concealer is now available for purchase with a 30% discount during Cyber Weekend sales.

This week has marked two major occasions; Black Friday, and the long-anticipated return of Stranger Things to Netflix. The fifth season of the hit show dropped its first four episodes early on Thursday morning for us here in the UK, and fans have already been binge watching ahead of the weekend.

Sadie Sink, the star of the new season, reprises her role as Max Mayfield, and it appears that Sadie embodies some of Max’s tomboy aesthetic in her everyday beauty routines. Sadie told The New York Time Style Magazine: Australia that she doesn’t wear makeup frequently, saying: “Day to day, I don’t wear makeup.” I’ll probably use the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Concealer if necessary.

The glow-boosting concealer is the ideal choice to cover blemishes, dark circles, or even pigmentation without using foundation. It can also be applied to smooth out pigmentation. However, Sadie has previously wore the Luminous Silk Foundation on the Venice Film Festival red carpet, demonstrating that the brand is one of her all-time favorites.

The foundation is also a big hit with other A-listers, with celebs like Kim Kardashian and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley also picking it as their go-to foundation. There’s good news for anyone hoping to get the A-list look for less, too.

Both the foundation and the concealer are currently included in LookFantastic’s Black Friday and Cyber Weekend sale, with a huge 30% slashed off the price. That means you can get the Luminous Silk Concealer for £27.30 rather than £39, and the Luminous Silk Foundation for £32.90 instead of £47.

Sadie’s go-to Luminous Silk Concealer has a lightweight, silky texture that provides full coverage without feeling bulky or cakey, much like the foundation. It blends easily and contains caffeine to give the appearance of fuller, plump, and smoother skin. Additionally, it contains vitamin E and natural emollient glycerin, which prevents the dreaded cakey, chalky finish and provides hydration to the skin.

Kosas Revealer Super Creamy and Brightening Concealer, which combines makeup and skincare, is another concealer with a similar effect. Refy’s Concealer has a hydrating serum formula, and it costs £16.50 from £22.95 at Boots, which is a great deal.
