Harry Styles gives clear sign on Zoe Kravitz relationship after Berlin support

By in Entertainment News, News

Harry Styles and Zoe Kravitz’s relationship is said to be going from strength to strength after the pair were first romantically linked after an outing together last month

Harry Styles and Zoe Kravitz’s relationship is continuing to flourish and there was a clear indication of their intent as she supported him in Berlin. The former One Direction singer, 31, joined 50,000 runners for the 26.2 mile marathon race last weekend in the German city.

The star was cheered on by those on the sidelines, including the actress, 36, as he bagged an impressive finishing time of 2:59:13 hours. But as the pair continue getting to know each other, a key sign during their time in Berlin seemed to indicate things were moving fast.

A source claimed Harry was using his trip as inspiration for his new album. And they claimed that Zoe being there showed just how much she was meaning to him.

Speaking to The Sun, the insider said: “It’s no secret that Harry is making his new album in Berlin and he’s been getting lots of inspiration from the music scene there.

“The fact he wanted Zoe to join him just shows how important she is as part of the creative bubble process for him and how much he wants her to be part of every aspect of his life. He doesn’t share his music with just anyone.

“He’s spent a lot of time in the city and it’s really special that he’s getting to show Zoe his secret life there. This is really a sign of just how serious things are with them.”

It comes after the couple were first romantically linked last month. The pair were seen enjoying a romantic stroll together on a trip to Rome. Since then, they’ve spent time together across the world, including outings in Rome, Tuscany, London, and New York City.

During their time in the States, Harry was also introduced to Zoe’s family, including fellow music legend Lenny Kravitz. The group visited the Sant Ambroeus venue for a lunch date.

A source told People: “Friends of Lenny say he is very protective of Zoe, but it really seemed like he enjoyed meeting Harry. From what people could tell, he thought Harry was polite, down to earth and genuinely interested in getting to know the family.

“Lenny has always wanted Zoe to be with someone who respects her, and it looked like he felt Harry does. They were laughing a lot at lunch, and it came across that Lenny appreciated Harry’s sense of humour. He likes when someone can keep things light.”

Cheeky-chap Harry has previously dated a string of famous women. However, he often remained quite private about his love life, despite being seen kissing stars such as Emily Ratajkowski and Kendall Jenner.

Zoe, meanwhile, was previously married to Karl Glusman between 2019 and 2021. She was also engaged to Channing Tatum before their split in 2024. Other former partners include singer Drake and actor Penn Badgley.

Asia Cup, Super Four, Dubai

Pakistan 135-8 (20 overs): Haris 31 (23); Taskin 3-28

Bangladesh 124-9 (20 overs): Shamim 30 (25); Shaheen 3-17

Pakistan won by 11 runs

Pakistan set up an Asia Cup final showdown with India after successfully defending 136 to beat Bangladesh by 11 runs.

Two-time winners Pakistan have met the defending champions twice already during the tournament, with India winning on both occasions, but the matches have garnered more attention for the friction between the two sides than for the cricket.

The players did not shake hands following India’s seven-wicket win in the group stage, with Pakistan head coach Mike Hesson saying India refused to do so. There was also no handshake between the captains at the toss.

A similar scenario played out during their subsequent meeting in the Super Fours, which India won by six wickets. There were also numerous flashpoints between the players during the match, most notably when the umpire had to step in between India opener Abhishek Sharma and Pakistan bowler Haris Rauf.

Pakistan and Bangladesh headed into the penultimate match of the Super Four stage knowing the winner would advance to the final and Bangladesh had one foot in Sunday’s trophy match when they restricted Pakistan to 135-8.

Taskin Ahmed (3-28) and Mahedi Hasan (2-28) struck early to reduce Pakistan to 5-2 inside 10 balls and wickets continued to fall as the batting side teetered on 49-5 in the 11th over.

Wicketkeeper Mohammad Haris top-scored with 31 (23) to drag Pakistan into three figures, enjoying partnerships with Shaheen Shah Afridi (19) and Mohammad Nawaz (25), but Mahedi and Taskin dismissed the trio to prevent any late fireworks.

Bangladesh had their own struggles with the bat, losing three wicket in the powerplay and later slumping to 44-4.

Shamim Hossain’s 30 (25) briefly revived their hopes of a successful chase but his dismissal by Shaheen (3-17) in the 17th over was quickly followed by two wickets in three balls from Haris Rauf and despite some late boundaries from Rishad Hossain, Bangladesh fell short.

Cardiff sign Halfpenny on short-term deal

Cardiff have signed former Wales full-back Leigh Halfpenny on a short-term contract.

Halfpenny, 36, will initially take on a kicking coach role but aims to play for the Arms Park side again when he recovers from a calf injury.

The former British and Irish Lions Test star had been training with Cardiff after leaving Harlequins at the end of the 2024-25 season.

The deal had been agreed before the departure of former head coach Matt Sherratt who left to join Steve Tandy’s Wales backroom staff.

Combining playing and coaching

Halfpenny was given a kicking coach role by Wales during the summer tour of Japan where he worked in the backroom staff of Sherratt, who has since left Cardiff to become the permanent Wales attack coach.

“I have been fortunate to work as a kicking coach with Wales Under-20s a few years ago and more recently had the privilege of working with the senior team in Japan this summer,” said Halfpenny

“This is the next step in that journey and I’m really enjoying working with Cardiff’s kickers and their young back-three players.

“There is so much talent here and if I can help them in any way, passing on my experience then that is great.”

In an illustrious career Halfpenny won 101 Wales caps, appeared in four Lions Test matches and won the Heineken Cup during his time with Toulon.

He is not yet ready to hang up his boots.

Back to where it all began

Halfpenny played for Cardiff RFC and Cardiff Blues between 2007 and 2014 before moving to Toulon and later Scarlets.

During his previous seven years at Cardiff, Halfpenny made 87 appearances, scoring 568 points.

The 36-year-old won both the Amlin Challenge Cup and Anglo-Welsh Cup during that time.

“After coming through the academy and spending seven years here, I have always hoped to come back to the Arms Park one day,” said Halfpenny.

“To be able to play for this club again would mean so much to me, where it all started.

Lagos Govt Unveils Guidelines To Tackle Sexual Harassment At Workplace

By in News, Nigeria News

To combat and prevent sexual harassment at work, the Lagos State government has developed new guidelines.

During a symposium held at Victoria Island’s Civic Centre, the Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) unveiled the framework.

The event focused on the effects of SGBV on organizational productivity and sexuality.

More than 130 professionals from the trade union, hospitality, FMCG, oil and gas, and banking joined together for the event.

Titilola Vivour-Adeniyi, the executive secretary of DSVA, described SGBV as a significant economic challenge and a human rights violation.

Survey

According to the 2018 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey, which predicted annual losses of $ 3.0 billion, or nearly 1% of output, she cited.

Additionally, she shared the findings of a recent survey of 549 professionals on workplace harassment.

Over 70% of respondents had direct experience, while 89.3% had a family member who was affected.

Only 4.5% of respondents said they had never experienced workplace harassment.

She said, “This reality underscores the urgent need for enforceable workplace policies that promote dignity, respect, and inclusivity.”

Princess Olumegbon, the head of the Lagos Assembly Committee on Women Affairs, stated that SGBV must be addressed both as a societal and economic challenge.

She assured the audience that the House would work to improve the legal frameworks for preventing gender-based violence.

Calls For Zero Tolerance

Goodwill messages were delivered during the symposium’s keynote address, which was delivered by Women at Risk International Foundation (WARIF) founder Kemi Ibru.

Ibru advocated for the use of zero-tolerance laws and survivor support systems and highlighted the impact of SGBV on productivity.

The official release of the Lagos State Guidelines for Preventing and Addressing Sexual Harassment at Work was a major highlight.

Lauren Goodger shares bloody photo from surgery as she issues warning to fans

By in Entertainment News, News

TOWIE cast member Lauren Goodger has been posting about a recent visit to hospital where she had a procedure, with her having shared updates on social media today

Reality TV star Lauren Goodger has shared a warning to fans after undergoing surgery this week. The Only Way is Essex cast member announced earlier today that she is now awaiting the results of a biopsy following the procedure.

Lauren, 39, has revealed that she had three moles removed at a hospital in Essex. She said that one of them was “deep rooted” and it has been sent off for analysis at a laboratory, with her now urging fans to check their own moles.

The former Celebrity Big Brother housemate posted the updates on Instagram. Lauren first shared a selfie of herself wearing a medical gown whilst she lay in a bed. She didn’t provide any details but tagged the hospital in the post.

Hours later, she teased that she’d had a procedure and issued a warning, suggesting that her next post would contain cuts, blood and stitches. She wrote: “WARNING Caution .. Next slide skip if you don’t like cuts or blood or stitches.”

Lauren then posted a photo that showed a blue sheet that appeared to have blood on it. A hole in the sheet showed stitches over an incision in her skin, with her writing about the surgery in the accompanying caption.

She told her followers that she had three moles removed in the procedure and suggested that the photo documented the removal of a “deep rooted” one. Lauren also said that her moles had changed when she was pregnant.

The caption began: “I’ve had 3 moles removed, this one was cut out and removed as was deep rooted being sent off to the lab.” She went on to encourage others to check their bodies, writing: “So important so check your moles.”

She continued: “I’ve always been a sun worshiper but these changed in pregnancy.” She concluded by telling her followers on the platform: “But all removed now maybe have a few more soon results and stitches out in 2 weeks.”

Lauren is the latest celebrity to encourage fans to monitor their moles. Last month, Love Island star Zara McDermott posted about a form of skin cancer screening and she told her followers: “Check your body as often as possible.”

According to the NHS, a new mole or the change in appearance of an existing one “may be signs of melanoma,” which is a type of skin cancer. It states that melanomas are “more common in areas that are often exposed to the sun”.

It adds: “It’s important to check your moles regularly for any changes.” It also says: “UV light from the sun can increase the chance of a mole becoming cancerous. If you have lots of moles, you need to be extra careful in the sun.”
