Ryan Reynolds has made no secret of his love for Wales after teaming up with his actor friend Rob McElhenney to buy Wrexham FC in a surprising takeover of the non-league club in 2021. The Deadpool star has since gone on to describe owning the club as “the joy of my life”.

Since taking over the team, Ryan, 48, and Rob have since been overcome with shock as they have seen the team achieve two consecutive promotions. They even welcomed cameras into the field to record the team’s highs and lows for the popular Disney+ series Welcome to Wrexham. The Canadian star is said to unwind at the posh Carden Park hotel after a day of cheering on the crowds.

According to reports, Ryan and his Gossip Girl wife Blake Lively, 37, have purchased a £1.5 million home in Marford, which is located a short distance from Wrexham. However, it is believed that the couple and 48-year-old Rob will reside close to the training and playing fields at the Cheshire hotel.

The opulent four-star estate, which is ten miles from the Racecourse Ground, also has world-class sporting facilities that Wrexham’s players have used for themselves.

The estate was even used by Sweden’s national women’s team and UEFA during last year’s Women’s Euros, with the estate having a full-sized football pitch. There are also two championship golf courses, one of which was designed by 18-time major winner Jack Nicklaus and his son Steve.

Carden Park also welcomed the likes of Mo Farah and DJ Jordan North as stars of 2020’s I’m A Celebrity recouped after their time in Wales.

Wrexham are only three games left this season, and Reynolds and McElhenney have already been able to claim one promotion following Wrexham’s women’s team’s victory over Genero Adran North to secure a spot in the Genero Adran Premier.

“ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. CONGRATULATIONS @WrexhamAFCWomen !!!!!!!” McElhenney tweeted after promotion was confirmed. “Wow. Wow. Wow. PROMOTION!!!!! So proud of this club!!!!!” added Reynolds on Instagram.

Last year, Ryan gushed about his love for Wrexham at a community event in Chicago hosted by former US president Barack Obama. The Deadpool star told the Obama Foundation 2024 Democracy Forum: “Sports, music and movies are all experiences that require us to check our bulls**t at the door.

“We all get to feel the same thing for a minute in a world that’s so tribal and we all get to root for the same thing. We take our hats off and whatever our tribal colours are, and we all get to feel something pretty special together.

“Wrexham has been and continues to be my life’s joy. I’ve learned a lot from it. Since taking over the team, the actor has grown more involved with the neighborhood.

In order to further their mission of improving the neighborhood, Ryan and Rob welcomed new minority investors to the club in October of last year. After selling their medical device manufacturing business, Welch Allyn Inc. for more than $2 billion (£1.5 billion), in 2015, the Allyn family from New York re-joined.

After participating in a number of initiatives that improved neighborhoods in New York, the family is known for its charitable investments. In contrast to Scranton and other towns in northern New York like Syracuse, where they once had boomtowns filled with coal and steel before experiencing hardship, said Ryan.

We entered this with the false impression that we are completely in charge. We are here to tell the story rather than to teach anyone how to play football.

“Everything was (people asking) “why us?” during the first year. Nothing good ever happens here, and nothing good will ever happen to me, a woman I remember telling Rob and I. The high tide raises all boats, despite the fact that it was very prevalent at the time. You can center storytelling around a group and create an atmosphere where people feel heard.

Jessie J reveals she’d ‘never felt more alone’ after heartbreaking miscarriage

Despite making the brave decision to continue touring, Jessie J was just 10 weeks along when she miscarried in 2021. Years later, she has admitted that she “never felt more alone.”

Jessie J became pregnant in 2021 as a single mother, but a third scan revealed no heartbeat.

Jessie J has opened up about how she coped in the immediate aftermath of a heartbreaking loss. The London-born singer suffered a devastating miscarriage in 2021, and admitted that she struggled greatly behind the scenes despite continuing to work and perform.

Jessie, 37, had decided to become a single mother at the time and was 10 weeks along when she announced her pregnancy to the world. Just a day after the announcement she had her third scan, which revealed that her baby no longer had a heartbeat.

The musician bravely shared the news on Instagram at the time, writing: “Yesterday morning I was laughing with a friend saying ‘seriously though how am I going to get through my gig in LA tomorrow night without telling the whole audience I am pregnant’. By yesterday afternoon I was dreading the thought of getting through the gig without breaking down…”

Jessie then admitted that she might regret posting the depressing news online, but that she would still be performing later that evening.

The actress now has more information about what she went through as a result of her painful loss, which serves as the inspiration for her new song No Secrets.

“I’d just had the miscarriage when I started writing this song in the studio,’ she told Elle. “When I found out the baby had no heartbeat – I’m sure I can speak for all women, even if they have people around them – it’s such a lonely feeling. I’ve never felt more alone.”

Jessie continued, “She knew the baby had gone, but it was still inside her, and shared:” It was the most lonely, but saddest time. It’s letting go of something you’ve imagined that isn’t going to happen right now.

She questioned, “Do I regret it?,” when describing her decision to end her shows despite the significant loss. No. Was it enjoyable to me? “I don’t know,”

Jessie J with Chanan Colman and baby Sky
Jessie continued to have a son with Chanan Colman, but her previous miscarriage caused her to be very ‘strict’ in fear of breaking her.

She continued, “She still felt alone despite her sister flying over to Los Angeles for support.” I had no one to discuss or process it with. She said, “I just knew I had to keep going.”

After the loss of her baby, Jessie later started dating Chanan Colman and became pregnant within seven months. The duo went on to welcome son Sky in May 2023, but the singer acknowledged that her miscarriage made her very fearful during her second pregnancy.

She said, “I just assumed I was going to lose him as well after you’ve been told it’s not going to be easy to carry.” At first, I had so many scans. I paid for them in an absurd amount of money.

Jessie explained that she was extremely strict when she revealed that she no longer dyed her naturally blonde hair and brows out of fear for her son. I simply wanted everything to go right, even down to the products.

Real Housewives’ Tanya Bardsley lays bare struggles and says ‘not for fainthearted’

Tanya Bardsley, the star of Real Housewives of Cheshire, has revealed that her sons’ football-mad sons’ hobbies are like a “full-time job” for them because they want to emulate their footballing father.

Real Housewives’ Tanya Bardsley admits that it’s not for the faint-hearted.

Real Housewives of Cheshire star Tanya Bardsley has compared her kids’ hobbies to a “full time job”, as she admits having three sons is “not for the faint hearted”.

As she ferried her kids around their football runs and posed for photos while they watched her sons play football, the 44-year-old still looked as glam as ever. In navy leggings, a loose-fitting top, and her “snuggly” Dryrobe coat, Bardo looked stunning as she shared a number of photos on Saturday morning.

The reality star had her hair slicked back in a chic pony, finishing off her look with pared back make up and statement sunnies. Looking every bit the soccer mom, Tanya shared photos of her youngest Ralphi, who is already following in the footsteps of his footballer dad Phil Bardsley.

She remarked, “The savage game of juggling football is a full-time job and not for the faint hearted when you have three sons who play.” My little Rally Foodies game was a success today, with him scoring two goals.

Tanya continued, “I’m just happy I didn’t have to hear the trumpet.” The @asanteapparelofficial dry robe coat is the softest, snuggly coat I’ve ever had, and it’s perfect for pitched games and on English beaches this summer. My t-shirt, leggings, and sunglasses are all from @asanteapparelofficial.

The straightforward mother-of-four added the hashtags #greasyhair #dontcare to her post. Since 2014, Terrya and Phil have four children together.

The 23-year-old Gabriella of a previous relationship, Ralphi, and Rocco, 15, Renz, 12, and Ralphi, 5, are Tanya’s three children. In a lavish ceremony at Cheshire’s Peckforton Castle in 2014, the couple wed.

It’s no surprise the boys are footy crazy because their father, former footballer and assistant manager at Macclesfield, is Phil. The Bardsley Bunch, the family’s brand-new reality series, examines how the family manages their lavish six-bedroom home in Cheshire.

The basement has a glass floor that looks down into a cinema and bar, and the family’s incredible gaff has one. The Bardsley Bunch is more of a fly-on-the-wall documentary style than a scripted reality show. The production team installed GoPro cameras in their homes along with small microphones in planters and photo frames.

With the ITVBe show first airing on April 16th, fans compared the family to the Kardashians, a similarity that is lost on Tanya. Speaking to OK! magazine recently, the former glamour model laughed: “We’re more like the Clampetts who won the lottery.

We’re just a fairly normal family that’s a little crazy, we’re just that! We occasionally dress up, but the majority of the time we’re just a regular family in a messy, chaotic house where everyone fights and settles.

The rest, according to Tanya, is “just us living our lives,” aside from a few planned scenes to provide context or illustrate a response. She continued, “I hope other people’s eyes are made to feel really happy about their own lives when I see Ralphi smashing balls off a mirror in a Grinch outfit.”

Georgia Harrison pregnant 10 months after meeting new boyfriend on dating app

Following a tumultuous romance with City worker Jack Stacey, reality TV star-turned-documentary maker Georgia Harrison exclusively reveals she is expecting her first child.

Georgia is eager to become a first-time mother.

Georgia Harrison has spent the last few years fighting for the online world to be safer for future generations – and now she has an extra incentive to continue championing history-making changes. The former Celebrity SAS winner, 30, is pregnant with her first baby following a beautiful romance with her City worker boyfriend Jack Stacey, 33.

After connecting on a dating app last summer, they made their first connection in Essex, and now they are living together. You become aware when you become aware. Although it’s cringey, we definitely feel that way. Anyone who has met us is aware of our strength and happiness, she says.

We both had children, and while some may think it will arrive too soon, we are aware that this is fantastic news and that we are overwhelmed by it.

“We’ve both lived to the point where it’s probably bothersome, partied to the point where it’s probably bothersome, and done everything you could do.” Why not have our children sooner rather than later if we have the gift of having them?

Georgia has come a long way since first appearing on The Only Way is Essex in 2014 and on Love Island in 2017. In 2023, the BBC named her one of the world’s 100 most inspiring and influential women, alongside human rights lawyer Amal Clooney and former First Lady Michelle Obama. This year Georgia produced an ITV documentary series.

After she waived her right to anonymity and testified against her ex-partner, who made money from sharing a private, intimate video of her on the internet without her knowledge, she began a political lobbying and documentary career. He was given a 21-month sentence after being found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of making false statements about his sexual activity in March 2023.

After ten and a half months in prison, he was ordered to pay back £22, 305 of illegal income shared in the intimate video. In 2023, Georgia’s rallying cry for better protection was rewarded by the government’s proposed changes to the online safety bill to streamline the criminal prosecution process. She still struggles to accept everything she has accomplished.

“I think I’ve accomplished a lot for someone my age, but I’m probably also suffering from imposter syndrome.” I find it difficult to comprehend what I’ve done in terms of the larger picture. However, I also had to grow up and learn that everything I’ve done in the past was meant to get me where I am now.

Given her experiences, it’s not surprising that Georgia acknowledged that she had reservations about meeting Mr. Right before meeting Jack in August.

“But you’re not going to get the job, are you,” you might say. she chuckles. I was considering that I’m about to turn 30. I really want to make an effort to meet someone. I’d never used a dating app before, so I set up a few dates the following week and a few the following week, just in case you didn’t know.

He may not have appeared on any of my previous shows, but fortunately he did. Then I canceled the other dates. Although Jack has said things like, “I’m not going anywhere,” I was a bit pessimistic about love in general.

The pair anticipated moving closer to buying their first home together this year, in London, after almost becoming inseparable over the course of the following months. However, in light of the positive news, they decided Essex would be the best option to move Georgia closer to her mother. We were trying to figure out where we wanted to be, together, because we were essentially living out of suitcases. This was getting a little stressful.

She continues: “I had just put my flat on the market, but as soon as I learned I was pregnant, I knew I needed to be in Essex, at least for a while. Georgia’s mother, Nicola Harrison, said, “After telling Jack, Georgia’s mother, Nicola Harrison, was the one who got the good news,” and Georgia claims that her reaction was emotional given what she has been through with her daughter.

Mum watched me through every step of it. She’s always assured me that everything would go smoothly and that my happy ending would be met with someone.

“So I find it wonderful for her to see me at this point.” This is an amazing positive phase of her life, just like she once said, because you can only be happy with your happy child as a parent.

Georgia’s most recent TV work included the hard-hitting two-parter Georgia Harrison: Porn, Power, Profit, which explored the occasionally gloomy worlds of deepfake porn and revenge. Georgia claims that she has even greater drive now that she is expecting and that making changes will benefit more people, particularly women and girls, from going through what she’s been through.

JoJo Siwa’s ex Kath Ebbs claims Chris Hughes ‘love was real’ in cryptic swipe

After fans complained about JoJo Siwa’s behavior on television, Chris Hughes’ ex-partner has claimed that the reality star’s relationship with him is “real.”

JoJo Siwa finally reunited with Kath Ebbs after the end of Celebrity Big Brother, but their time together didn’t last for long. The duo became exes hours after Jack P Shepherd’s win, and Kath has now agreed with fans accusing JoJo of wrongdoing.

JoJo, 21, became very close with Love Island star Chris Hughes in the Big Brother house, with countless viewers wondering if they could be more than friends. Chris stayed close to JoJo at the CBB afterparty, and Kath has revealed that JoJo dumped them at the event – which they’d flown over to London for specially.

Kath shared how upset they were with JoJo’s behaviour in the house and shock at the sudden split in a video shared on Instagram and TikTok, sharing in part: “The story goes right now in the last eight hours or whatever, I flew here and I went to the live show to show up for my partner and support them in their experience and then later on address my feelings of hurt and work through them like all relationships do…

I went to the after party with my now ex, which is crazy, and I was dumped there before I could return to the hotel.

Many of Kath’s followers were equally shocked and outraged at JoJo’s decision to end the relationship, and Kath responded by liking the angry comments.

Continue reading the article.

One comment read, “Summary they broke up and what was going on with JoJo and Chris.

Also liked the comments that read, “Basically, we just got duped by JoJo once more,” Kath said. I can’t even begin to comprehend that.

The Australian podcaster also took the time to double tap a fan who was left enraged claiming that people should stop using JoJo’s age and saying she was aware of “what’s right and wrong”.

While Kath said that JoJo had been the one to end things, just a couple of days before JoJo seemed worried that the opposite might become true when she received a message from her partner. The note, read out by Chris, said: “The most important thing to tell you is a message from Kath because I know you really miss them the most. Kath’s keen to see you when you get out, inverted commas.”

JoJo cried as a result of the brief message, and he wondered why the note wasn’t particularly loving. She acknowledged to Chris, “I honestly like, I’m really analysing that note and I don’t like it.”

She also criticized Kath for her comments in the Diary Room, saying, “I do have beef to pick with them, but they didn’t even mention their love to me. I won’t allow them to suffer.

“Where was my “Hi, sweetheart,” “Where was my “I love you,” and “Where was my “I miss you?” is what I’ll say. Like “come on, baba, give me a little something,” you’re eager to see me when I leave this place, and you’re eager to see you as well.

Celebrity Big Brother’s JoJo Siwa’s future plans revealed after dumping partner

After abruptly ending her romance with Kath Ebbs, celebrity Big Brother star JoJo Siwa has expressed her hope for the near future.

After brutally dumping her devoted partner, Kath Ebbs, JoJo Siwa, the reality TV star and Big Brother bronze medalist, has revealed her future plans. The American singer and dancer, age 21, made it to the 2025 season of ITV’s beloved reality show’s final, finishing third behind champion Danny Beard and runner-up Jack P. Shepherd.

Hours later, JoJo revealed that she had secretly dumped Kath, 27, at the Celebrity Big Brother party. During this time, JoJo’s close relationship with Love Island star Chris Hughes, 32, left her “confused.” JoJo had taken to social media to share her future plans before Kath shared the shock split news.

And it appears that the UK itself is the one thing she has fallen for since leaving the notorious reality show house. The American star appears to be a britophile (a person who loves the UK), and she revealed that her hope for the foreseeable future is to be able to stay in the country after spending three weeks imprisoned with a number of other stars, drinking mugs of tea, and even racing to consume a can of Spam.

Taking to TikTok after her exit, the star was asked: “I know you just came out of the Big Brother house, do you want anything?” And she replied: “Yeah, I just want to stay in the UK.”

Then, she was questioned, “Is that all you want?” and she stated, “That’s it.” Then, JoJo was asked, “You don’t want to go home yet.” She then responded, “No. merely the UK.

What a 20 DAYS!!! “, she told her followers after the video exchange. I stayed up all night admiring your gorgeous Britts’ love! I’ve been a little hesitant to show that side of me, so hearing that you guys enjoy seeing that side of my life is a relief.

She then stated, “I think we’re going to run this page together now 50-50,” thank you to my mom for a little while.

Fans were concerned about JoJo’s relationship with Kath despite reports that the Australian model and DJ had become upset about the close friendship JoJo and Chris had developed while they were at the house. One follower remarked, “I just want to know if Kath is okay.”

Kath took to Instagram on Saturday to share the bombshell news that JoJo had dumped her at the Celebrity Big Brother after party. In an emotionally raw video, the LGBTQ+ advocate, who uses they/them pronouns, revealed they were prepared to fight to save the relationship, which had begun in January, only to have her heart ripped out.

Kath said, “I don’t know if you can, I don’t, I haven’t processed it enough to decide whether you want to call it love bombing or whatever,” but it seems like I have gone through it. I was told I was the love of someone’s life, asked to marry them before the social experiment, adored behind closed doors, hurt by what I saw, but still wanting to work through it and have a conversation and get clarity.

“And you know, to be met with, well, being, I guess, further humiliated in a way that’s more a feeling. I don’t know if it’s true, but the fact that the story is moving forward and that I flew here to support my partner during their experience and then, obviously, address my feelings later, makes it even more humiliating.

Continue reading the article.

Then Kath made the statement, “My, I guess now ex, crazy thing to say, and I was dumped in the party.

Kath continued, “I was told that there are confused feelings, do it whatever you will, and that they had realized in the house that I wasn’t the person they wanted to spend the foreseeable,” giving an explanation as to JoJo’s reasoning for abruptly pulling the plug on the relationship.
