Tom Hiddleston calls parenthood ‘life-altering’ as he announces arrival of second child

The actor gave a brief overview of the “life-altering” experience of becoming a parent and the actor welcomed their second child together.

Tom Hiddleston dubbed parenthood as ‘life-altering’ as he and Zawe Ashton welcomed their second child. The 44-year-old and his 41-year-old fiancee brought home their second baby earlier this year.

The Hollywood star reflected on the birth in a recent interview and shared how much becoming a parent had changed things for him. Tom and Zawe welcomed their first child in 2022, the same year they got engaged.

In a social media post about going to a baby bank, where families can get support, Zawe made the hint that her second child was due in November.

Zawe announced on Instagram in November that she was recovering from postpartum today, saying, “I chose to visit one of the @littlevillagehq baby banks, dedicated to supporting families all year long.

She added that she is “fiercely committed” to fighting the “ongoing war against children”. She wrote: “Throughout my recovery, I have thought deeply about the children in our world facing the most devastating living conditions and those tirelessly working to protect them. I’ve reflected deeply on the ongoing war against children, a fight I am fiercely committed to.”

Tom confirmed the birth during a conversation with GQ. His second child was born just days before the interviewer and he told the interviewer. He did not go into more detail about parenthood than he had described it as the “most beautiful, profound, earth-shattering, life-altering experience.”

Tom has mentioned fatherhood before in previous interviews. It has only fundamentally changed. He told an audience at the Miami Film Festival, “It completely altered the center of my life.” I’m happy to be living in the afterlife, which has both a before and an after.

Zawe also discussed motherhood. She stated to Sunday Times Style magazine, “I look forward to being in conversation about it when the time comes.” She claimed, “It’s the most unparalleled and significant role I will ever have. Listening is currently the best source of my motherly energy.

In a 2018 revival of Harold Pinter’s Betrayal, she and Tom first met when they were both cast as the married couple Robert and Emma. Up until June 2019, the two were on the show. They were photographed looking closely at various events during rehearsals and the run of the show. When they attended the US Open together, suspicions started to permeate that they were dating as the play moved to Broadway.

In 2021, the pair revealed their relationship at the Tony Awards, where Tom was nominated for Best Actor in a Play. Although they both made an effort to keep their relationship largely private, Zawe and him both showed up at the BAFTAs in March 2022, where he wore a massive diamond ring, which sparked engagement rumors. A few months later, Tom gave the engagement confirmation.

Police respond to claims they haven’t done enough for homeless Nickelodeon child star

Tylor Chase, the child star of Nickelodeon, appears unrecognizable while filming his alleged addiction and mental health issues while he is living on the streets.

Police in the US have responded to claims they haven’t done enough to help troubled Nickelodeon child star Tylor Chase.

In the early 1990s, the 36-year-old actor rose to fame in the role of the talkative and extremely intelligent student Martin Qwerly in the Nickelodeon series Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide. Everybody Hates Chris, a TV show from 2005, also aired with him.

But Tylor – who has been open about his mental health struggles with bipolar disorder – sparked concern after being filmed looking distressed as he lived rough on the streets of Riverside, California earlier this month.

The video, which has racked up thousands of views, prompted a wave of shock from those who grew up watching the hit Nickelodeon series that followed three middle school pupils navigating everyday challenges, with a cast including Devon Werkheiser, Daniel Curtis Lee and Lindsey Shaw.

Tylor was hospitalised over Christmas following help from his former co-stars and concerned fans. But days later he was sadly spotted on the streets again.

Tylor, who has been receiving support from social media influencer Jake Harris, was placed on a 72-hour involuntary psychiatric hold and was scheduled to enter a rehab facility, according to Jake Harris, who has been helping the former child star.

But Mighty Ducks star Shaun Weiss, a friend of Jake’s, told TMZ: “They were supposed to hold him and then transport him to a detox facility that we had arranged. Instead, they let him out without contacting any of us.” He also revealed that Tylor was “smoking meth during the evaluation with no shoes or jacket in the freezing cold.”

Following a backlash from fans, police have released a statement saying that despite their efforts Tylor has so far refused to accept any help. Riverside Police Chief Larry Gonzalez told PEOPLE magazine: “What we’re seeing play out with Tylor is, unfortunately, something we see every day, not just in Riverside, but across California.

It is obvious from the online videos that he is struggling with mental illness and substance abuse. The issue is that, in reality, personal choice is the underlying principle of our current mental health system. If someone is “in crisis,” they must voluntarily accept services unless very specific legal requirements are met.

Gonzalez continued, “Outsourcing teams have been in frequent contact with Tylor and have repeatedly offered services, long before the recent public attention, and continuing since then. He has come a long way to accepting help, but the person must make the final decision, and he has now turned down those services.

He responded to suggestions that Tylor should be taken into custody by the police by saying that “in California, arrests for drug possession or being under the influence are only misdemeanor offenses,” which would not prolong his jail time. He continued, “Those charges are considered non-violent, and due to a federal court order addressing Riverside County’s jail overcrowding, individuals are frequently released quickly without getting treatment, which places them right back where they left off.

Within the mental health system, “the same cycle runs.” Individuals are released back onto the streets frequently without being given any kind of immediate care unless they make a voluntary commitment or adhere to strict legal requirements for involuntary treatment. It’s a frustrating and heartbreaking cycle that highlights how inadequately integrated society is in treating homelessness, addiction, and mental health.

The Riverside Police Department’s Public Safety Engagement Team (PSET), according to a statement from the department, is made up of officers who have been specifically trained to work with people who are homeless. These services have been provided to Tylor, but he has so far declined to get help.

Back to the Future fans only just spotting clever detail in movie

Many people have been rewatching their favorite movies on television as people have settled into the holiday season, including Back to the Future, which has its fair share of “hidden details” throughout.

Although it is regarded as a cult classic, some Back to the Future fans only notice one clever detail in the film decades later. With its second and third movies coming out in 1989 and 1990, Back to the Future was first made available in 1985 and later became a trilogy.

But as people wind down for Christmas, many have been revisiting their favourite movies and introducing them to new audiences – their children. It has prompted a discussion on social media as viewers shared a ‘clever detail’ they spotted relating to the shopping centre visited in the storyline. In a post, one Reddit user said: “I just realised that when Marty goes to 1955 and runs over a pine tree it changes the name of Twin Pines Mall when he returns back to 1985.”

Marty skateboards toward Twin Pines Mall at the beginning of the film, in 1985, but when he reverses his course and runs over one of the trees, which is still present. Then, when he travels back to 1985, he is seen reversing his course and heading for the Lone Pine Mall mall.

Commenting on this, one user said: “I wore out two VHS copies of this movie from watching it so many times – not sure how many watches it took for me to catch that, but when I did it was so cool – it’s so awesome to think that people are still catching Easter eggs like that 30 years later.”

Another user responded, “Ahh! never discovered that”! “Buy the DVDs, watch then with the pop-up trivia track,” a third user said. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by how little things they “put in”.

Another user continued, “This is well known, but it’s still cool when new people discover these things. In the trilogy, this Easter egg can be found in abundance. One of the cutest jokes in the film, according to another user.

Where can I watch Back to the Future?

The movie on on various streaming services including Disney+, Netflix, Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video, NOW TV, and Sky Store.

One IMDb user remarked, “A funny sci-fi,” after reviewing the original movie. Unusual, but it actually works and does so brilliantly. A whimsical but incredibly clever time travel tale that will leave you wanting more.

The charismatic Michael J. Fox portrays a wonderful, bumbling high school student who is seeking for love, a guitar gig, and his own existence, which he himself threatens to eradicate.

This entertaining movie contains a lot of clever and humorous references, which the sequels continue to improve upon. There are numerous views of the same scenes captured from a variety of angles, viewpoints, and timelines.

Another commented, “I used to watch this movie religiously as a child. I enjoyed Doc Brown and Marty McFly’s chemistry, the overly recognizable soundtrack, and George McFly’s absurd humor.

For me, “This movie has turned into a very sentimental and enjoyable movie. Last year, I had the good fortune to see all three “Back to the Future” movies in theaters, and it was a wonderful experience with friends who shared my passion for this classic.

Wayne Lineker’s frightening brush with death in addiction battle after hospital stint

Wayne Lineker, the founder of O Beach, has a heartfelt video that charts his rollercoaster year and offers hope to those who are addicted. He said, “If I can do it, so can you! “

Wayne Lineker has opened up on the darkest moments of the last year in a touching and honest Instagram reel, showing a series of cards with writing on them to chart the brutal experiences he has had in the past 12 months.

The 63-year-old described his life’s worst year so far, handing out cards with writing each one of his own for his followers as a choral version of the hymn Silent Night played in the background. I flew to Ibiza for the summer in April. I had to use drugs, alcohol, and a lot of sleep during my 60-day bender.

“At the end of June I woke up to a video of myself off my face that had gone viral. Which was the no.1 trending video on TikTok and Twitter for the wrong reasons. At the beginning of July I was admitted to rehab for 6 weeks. My immune system crashed and I fought 7 infections including shingles.”

He continued, “I returned to Ibiza for the last 2 weeks of the season but it was too soon to be back in that environment so I left after just a few days. In November I caught a serious infection in Dubai, flew home and was diagnosed with chronic pneumonia. I spent 7 weeks in hospital.. Where I came frighteningly close to death… twice.”

But the O Beach manager, who is the brother of football pundit Gary, ended his reel, which was filmed outdoors, on a positive note, as he detailed how he has turned his life around – and wants others to know it’s possible.

“Now I’m approaching 6 months sober and fully committed to living a healthy life, Here’s to a fresh start. Roll in 2026. Happy New Year! P.S. Going to rehab was the best decision of my life. If I can do it, so can you!”

Wayne’s terrifying battle with pneumonia, which left him unable to walk, meant he missed out on spending Christmas with his family – but on 28 December he revealed he had finally left hospital, following a second serious bout of pneumonia, calling his 7-week hospital stay ‘pure hell’.

He also wrote, “I am free,” in addition to a smiling snap. I can’t even express how relieved I am that after seven weeks of purging of hell, I am completely recovered and released from the hospital. #pneumonia was the result of all of my valiant efforts to get over this deadly infection.

Friends and fans rushed to wish him a speedy recovery, including former Corrie star Kym Marsh who told him: “Great news xx” with DJ Collin Francis writing on his post which was liked almost 20,000 times: “Yesssss!! It’s Go Time!!! Well done Wayne-O!! Never in any doubt.”

Last week, Wayne wrote in another post: “I have beat pneumonia!! After undoubtedly the toughest six weeks of my life I will go home Boxing Day. Unfortunately, I will spend Christmas Day in hospital as I have two days left on my IV course of antibiotics. But very happy. Thank you to all the incredible doctors and Nurses at Basildon hospital.”

TV star and author Annabel Karmel ‘promoted to Nana’ as she shares son’s baby joy

A well-known TV personality, author, and children’s nutritionist is happy to have her first grandchild.

A well-known children’s nutritionist, Annabel Karmel, shared the happy news on her Instagram this morning. Nick and Sophia, both of whom were expecting a boy, were revealed to her son earlier than expected.

Annabel, a well-known name in the parenting industry and a frequent guest on TV and radio, shared a number of images of the baby with his parents Nick and Sophia.

The tot arrived earlier than expected, according to the caption, and there have been “some anxious moments” during the past week due to concerns about his breathing, which led to his six-day stay in an incubator. He has now been given the final say in his homecoming.

Annabel, a proud grandmother, shared sweet images of her newborn grandson (@annabelkarmel/Instagram).

The nutritionist wrote, “My big news is that I’ve been officially promoted to Nana Annabel,” or rather, Granny. The arrival of beautiful Baby Karmel was the most extraordinary Christmas gift he and his wife Sophia could have ever give me.

He arrived early, with some anxious moments, and the doctors had hoped for a little more growing time before the fourth of January.

Sophie was induced, and he appeared a week later, clearly in accordance with his own schedule, which is a family trait. He spent his first six days in an incubator, giving his lungs time to mature and empowering him to develop the ability to sustain himself because of concerns about how his breathing.

Nothing could have prepared you for seeing someone so tiny surrounded by tubes and oxygen, and it was a worrying and emotional time. The best news, however, was that he was resilient enough to return home yesterday. Beyond words, the relief and happiness are overwhelming.

“So, we’re welcoming 2025 with a brand-new family member on the eve of New Year’s Eve.” We are celebrating with feeds, naps, and the smallest but most powerful new arrival imaginable, without champagne and fireworks.

Baby Karmel is already a very cute, brutally honest, very demanding, and unofficially my first unpaid food taster, and he is already rocking it.

She exclaimed as she finished the caption, “I can’t think of a better way to end the year than to start a new one.” Annabel shared sweet photos of her newborn grandson sleeping on a hospital bed as well as snaps of him with his parents while he was there.

One fan wrote: “Wishing you many special and precious moments. Congratulations! “Congratulations wonderful news,” added another. Happy New Year’s Eve Karmel.

While a third expressed his congratulations, “Congratulations!!! utterly stunning.
