The Edie Fair Isle Cardigan, available in a variety of plain colours or playful patterns that are sure to spruce up any autumn ensemble, is currently reduced by £47.60.

Touted as a Boden bestseller, this cardigan is spun from a soft blend of wool and cotton, creating a sumptuously warm and cosy feel that’s a must-have for comfortable styling this season.

The knit features Boden’s playful take on Fair Isle patterns, boasting unique designs inspired by vintage knits in soft shades. This piece, in particular, has adopted a colourful fruit motif that adds a fun and contemporary twist to a timeless style.

Shoppers have been quick to praise this piece, as it has amassed numerous 5-star reviews. One buyer beams: “Absolutely beautiful. The green colour is stunning and the colours in the diamond pattern complement it perfectly. Looking forward to wearing this as the months begin to get colder.”

Another shopper says: “So glad I managed to get hold of one of these – it’s simply gorgeous! I get so many compliments.”

Further praise comes from this customer, who raves: “This sweater is perfection. Beautiful floral design and I will be saving it for spring chilly weather here in Texas. True to my US size 8 I ordered a medium. It’s not too cropped and the quality is up to Boden standards.”

And a fourth chimes in: “This beautiful cardigan is making my January. I ordered the vintage mauve color way and it did not disappoint. I’m 6’0″ tall and though that means this cardigan is a bit on the shorter side, it’s not too short at all. Even with low rise jeans, the front hem of the cardi can be barely tucked in, which is a look I love. It will also be perfect with higher waisted trousers. I can imagine wearing this over spring dresses, with my collection of full midi skirts from Boden, and with jeans. Looking excellent with everything. Thank you for another perfect sweater!”

Britney Spears reveals gruesome knee injury and bruised arms in worrying post

Britney Spears has shared a post to Instagram revealing a gruesome knee injury and bruised arms, just hours after claiming ex-husband Kevin Federline is ‘gaslighting’ her

Britney Spears has shared a post to Instagram which reveals she’s suffered a gruesome knee injury. This comes just two hours after she posted a statement to the same platform, where she accused ex-husband Kevin Federline of “gaslighting” her.

In a sad video, the star can be seen dancing with a bandaged knee, bruises on her arms and a smudged mascara around her eyes. The 43-year-old regularly posts dancing videos to Instagram, but in this one, she looked much sadder and close to tears.

Her latest clip shows her wearing a see-through pink sparkly patterned mini-dress with a feather trim. She is seen sporting bandages on one knee and both her hands while bruises on both her arms are visible. In the worrying clip, Britney is seen striking various poses for the camera, moving backwards and forwards and playing her her hair and making different expressions at the camera. As she posted the clip to Instagram, she added the song Sex and Candy by Unicorns and wrote in the caption: “If a girl is singing it should be there HE WAS HMMMM !!!!”

Earlier this month, Spears said she “fell down the stairs” and that her leg “snaps out now and then”. She added that she wasn’t sure if it was broken. At the time, the singer posted a video and captioned it: “Psss I fell down the stairs at my friend’s house… it was horrible… it snaps out now and then, not sure if it’s broken but for now, it’s snapped in!!!” That caption has now been removed.

Britney’s new video was posted shortly after she uploaded a screenshot of statement about her ex-husband. In the post she claims Federline is “gaslighting” her and says she has to speak up because she has “had enough” and “any real woman would do the same”.

This statement comes ahead of the release of Federline’s memoir, You Thought You Knew, due on 21 October. Spears wrote: “The constant gaslighting from ex-husband is extremely hurtful and exhausting. I have always pleaded and screamed to have a life with my boys. Relationships with teenage boys is complex. I felt demoralized by this situation and have always asked and almost begged for them to be a part of my life.

“Sadly, they have always witnessed the lack of respect shown by own father for me. They need to take responsibility for themselves. With one son only seeing me for 45 min in the past 5 years and the other with only 4 visits in the past 5 years. I have pride too. From now on I will let them know when I am available. Trust me, those white lies in that book, they are going straight to the bank and I am the only one who genuinely gets hurt here.”

She added: “I am actually a pretty intelligent woman who has been trying to live a sacred and private life the past 5 yers. i speak on this because I have had enough and any real woman would do the same.”

In his book, Federline, 47, claimed that their sons, Sean Preston, 19, and Jayden, 18, once woke up to find their mother holding a knife. Throughout the memoir, he details their two-year marriage from 2005-2007, which ended in a custody battle. Federline also claims he saw Spears use cocaine whilst breastfeeding.

He also addresses the conservatorship Spears was under from 2008-2021, in which her father controlled her life and finances. The arrangement sparked the #FreeBritney movement, where fans called for her independence to be restored. Federline wrote that while it started from a good place, “all those people who put so much effort into that should now put the same energy into the ‘Save Britney’ movement”. He added that it isn’t about freedom anymore: “This is no longer about freedom. It’s about survival.”

Dylan Sprouse raises awareness for wife Barbara Palvin’s painful health condition

As Barbara Palvin wowed on the Victoria’s Secret runway, her husband Dylan Sprouse brought awareness around a often misunderstood condition that affects one in ten women

Hungarian model Barbara Palvin dropped jaws during 2025’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show as she strutted down the runway despite having recently broken her foot. However, that wasn’t the only major health issue the 32-year-old had recently experience.

Her husband Dylan Sprouse stood on the red carpet offering a heartwarming gesture of support in the form of a yellow endometriosis ribbon pin. In an interview with E! News, the former The Suite Life of Zack & Cody star revealed that he was handing out the pins to raise awareness for Barbara’s health condition.

“I brought this endometriosis awareness pin. You want one? Because Barbara just went through endo surgery and I’m handing these out tonight,” he told interviewers.

In August, the model and actress revealed that she recently had surgery for endometriosis after struggling with symptoms for several years. “Hi guys, it’s been a while!” Barbara shared in an Instagram post, before encouraging others to seek treatment if they suspected they might also suffer from the disease.

Endometriosis is a condition where cells similar to those in the lining of the womb grow in other parts of the body. Symptoms occur when patches of endometriosis bleed during your period but have nowhere to go and can include severe period pain, heavy periods and pain when you use the toilet, according to the NHS.

The chronic disease affects 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth in the UK, making it the second-most common gynaecological condition. Despite that, many individuals face long delays in diagnosis and limited treatment options, according to The Endometriosis Foundation.

Dylan described Barbara as “so strong” for going through treatment by herself. He also revealed that Barbara’s social media posts had a massive impact on their following. He shared: “It turns out a ton of people reached out to her, a ton of women who had experienced the same things.”

He added: “I just don’t think there’s a lot of awareness about it. Some people were even reaching out and saying that they didn’t realise they had those symptoms until I got diagnosed after seeing [Barbara] post about it.

“So I’m hoping that if this is even a small measure of something we can do then I hope it helps.”

Diane Keaton’s cause of death and heartbreaking final days -including 911 call

Diane Keaton’s cause of death has been revealed along with her heartbreaking final days where she ‘declined very suddenly’ and called 911 before she was pronounced dead

Diane Keaton’s cause of death has been revealed by her family in an emotional statement where they detailed how the Hollywood star died of pneumonia. A source said Diane’s health had declined ‘suddenly’ before her tragic death, as relatives thanked fans for their ongoing support.

The Oscar-winning actress’s family also urged beloved fans to donate to an animal shelter or a charity which helps homeless people, as they highlighted Diane’s love for animals and passion for helping others.

Following Diane’s death at age 79, her family released a statement and revealed the actress died following a short battle with pneumonia. The statement added: “The Keaton family are very grateful for the extraordinary messages of love and support they have received these past few days on behalf of their beloved Diane,” reports People.

“She loved her animals and she was steadfast in her support of the unhoused community, so any donations in her memory to a local food bank or an animal shelter would be a wonderful and much-appreciated tribute to her.”

A source claimed to People on October 11 that the actress’ health ‘declined very suddenly’ and that her tragic death ‘was so unexpected’.

The source added: “In her final months, she was surrounded only by her closest family, who chose to keep things very private. Even longtime friends weren’t fully aware of what was happening.”

Shortly after her death was announced, Diane’s final moments were laid bare in a released 911 call after the audio was reportedly obtained by TMZ. The reports claim that emergency services were called to her property in Los Angeles after 8am on Saturday morning, before she was transported to hospital. The actress was later pronounced dead.

Close friends of Diane also reported to People that they were shocked by how much weight she had lost in the weeks before her passing. Songwriter Carole Bayer Sager, said: “She had lost so much weight,” Sager said. “I saw her two or three weeks ago and she was very thin.”

The Oscar-winning actress was best known for her work in films like The Godfather, Annie Hall, The First Wives Club and Something’s Got To Give. Keaton also worked with director Nancy Meyers multiple times on projects like the Book Club series.

She received numerous accolades throughout her career, including an Oscar, a BAFTA, Golden Globe Awards and nominations for two Emmy Awards and a Tony Award. The late actress was romantically involved with Hollywood stars like Woody Allen, her Godfather co-star Al Pacino and Warren Beatty.

Molly-Mae’s Hague’s tense relationship with Tommy ahead of tell-all Amazon series

Molly-Mae and Tommy are back together following their split in 2024, but the couple’s relationship has some key differences now that will be discussed in season two of Behind It All

For years, Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury were Love Island’s golden couple. But after a turbulent 2024 that saw the pair split as Tommy struggled with a drinking problem and they faced infidelity rumours, the couple are now rebuilding their relationship.

Viewers will shortly get some insight into how they are doing on season two of Molly-Mae’s Prime series Behind It All. But ahead of the show launch, here is what we know about the couple’s relationship as it currently stands.

The pair met on Love Island in 2019 and continued to develop a happy relationship for many years, welcoming their daughter Bambi to the world in January 2023.

Their engagement in Ibiza later in 2023 appeared to cement their fairytale image. But just a year later, things fell apart. Tommy later admitted that a sports injury took a toll on his mental health, and he turned to drink to cope.

He told Men’s Health: “We broke up because I had a problem with alcohol and I couldn’t be the partner that I wanted to be anymore. I couldn’t train, box, lift weights… I’d lost my whole identity.”

He admitted to drinking heavily — sometimes up to “20 shots a night” — and added that this period of his life left him “unrecognisable”.

For Molly-Mae, the breakup was devastating. In the first series of her Prime Video documentary Molly-Mae: Behind It All, she confessed: “The last couple of months have been like the worst couple of months of my life. The feeling of a breakup, it’s like a physical pain — your heart actually hurts.”

Despite her heartbreak, she always held onto hope that their story wasn’t over. At the end of the first series, she shared: “The dream is still the same. That we’ll all be happy in that house together and have more children…I know we’ve got something completely worth saving.”

Molly-Mae officially confirmed that she got back together with Tommy in May this year, but there are some key differences to their relationship this time around.

She told Cosmopolitan: “We’re back together, and we’re just navigating our way through — forming our relationship again in the public eye and really just figuring it all out.”

The influencer said they are “in a much better place”, but also revealed that they are still living separately. “We’re still in two houses,” she said. “It’s a strange dynamic because we’re together, but we’re also living quite separate lives. I’m hoping that will change quite soon.”

Sources have also claimed that staff at Molly-Mae’s recent brand events were told not to ask questions about her relationship with Tommy, so the couple appear to be attempting to keep their love life more private now.

Molly-Mae seems to have turned more of her focus towards her thriving business empire and her daughter Bambi, but she did admit her heart is still set on growing an even larger family with Tommy.

“I’m desperate to give Bambi a sibling,” she said. “I was the younger sister, so I benefited even more from having someone to guide me and someone to look up to. I’d want that for Bambi, but I would never want to do it just for her – I’d want to do it also because it’s something I want to do.”

Molly-Mae’s sister Zoe has expressed her fears that Tommy’s drinking problems will crop up again and cause issues in the couple’s relationship, but the influencer seems confident that he has made huge progress with his personal issues.

In season one of Behind It All, she told Zoe: “He’s not drank now, like for what four months. But no, I don’t think the drink’s gone away forever. Could drink still be a problem for us? Potentially yes. But the break-up showed I was serious.

“I love Tommy so much and I love our family so much that I’m willing to ride the wave. And that’s not something that everyone wants to do, but it’s something that I’m willing to do because I want my family.”

Writing on X, he said: “I’ve had enough of all this b******* I can’t do anything right now without someone critising me. Or Making me do something against my will. It’s b*******. I wish I never done strictly, I never fitted the bill for that show let’s be honest. And It’s Caused me nothing but agg. Constant absuse.

“All I f****** do is try to spread positivity online. I can’t walk anywhere without people knowing who I am. I’ve had a narrative spun against me so People always have an opinion on me now that they didn’t 3 months ago. I’ve heard so many lies said and told about me.

“It’s driving me mad. I’ve had a constant pile on of abuse over the last month like I’m a mass murderer. It’s b*******. I went out to work in my van this morning and I’m either getting beeped at or people putting their thumb up at me.”

Tom went on to add that he’s “had enough” after feeling that people he has supported are “starting to turn on [him]” because of what is being said about him online. He told fans that he would be taking a break from being online to concentrate on him and his family.

Tom added: “I ain’t one to admit I’m struggling. But I am. I’m honestly tired of all this nonsense. Can no one see what’s happening to me, I don’t know why I’ve become this target. I’ve always been the one that’s been solid. But I’ve really really had enough now.”

He signed off his message with his catchphrase “bosh” and a red heart emoji. Tom was the first celebrity contestant to be booted off the show in this year’s series.

He was up against rugby player Chris Robshaw in the bottom two, but judges unanimously chose to save Chris. Speaking on the show, Tom told host Tess Daly: “I’ve loved it. I’ve never danced before and my stay was short, but Amy’s amazing. It’s been great fun and I’ve enjoyed it. I can’t really dance that well but I’ve had fun! Thank you, Amy – sorry that we haven’t done too good, ‘cause you’re a different class.”
