As he leaves his ex-wife Britney Spears, Sam Asghari appears to be very sentimental.

The actor, 30, took to Instagram to share sweet images alongside his rumoured new girlfriend, Brooke Irvine. Eight months after he and Toxic singer Britney got divorced after only 14 months of marriage, he received the news.

The hilarious actor posted the couple’s hands-on photos to Instagram and wished them a happy new year. They glared at one another while they were standing next to a palm tree in the first image. Sam was in an all white outfit, while Brooke matched, with a fitted dress with a thigh-high split.

Another image showed them posing together in bathing suits on a branching tree over the clear ocean. And a third of the duo, who donned matching black attire, were hugging one another. The couple embraced as they enjoyed their time together during the final two uploads, sporting matching outfits. His sister reportedly shared the love, and his followers were quick to applaud the post. In response to his post, Sister Maddie merely emailed her two love heart emojis.

It comes shortly after Britney made an eloquent dig at her ex-boyfriend. According to TMZ, they settled for divorce in May 2024 while still abide by the terms of their prenuptial contract. “The divorce was amicable and the prenup was not challenged”, a source told People. “Brittney is moving on and exercising her freedom.” She is not under any lease with him, and the claim that she is in financial trouble is false.

After meeting on the set of Britney’s music video for her song Slumber Party, the two men started dating in 2016. After five years, Sam proposed in September 2021 and they tied the knot on June 4, 2022, in a glitzy ceremony in Los Angeles, joined by A-list friends.

In November, Sam and Brooke first fell in love romantically. There are rumors about their relationship after they were spotted out and about in the Los Angeles area. The aspiring actor made an announcement about launching a new chapter in his life when he spoke to PEOPLE at the time.

When asked about adjusting to life away from Britney, he told the publication: “It’s the bed that you make yourself, and you got to learn how to lay in it, so it’s part of the lifestyle. You just got to keep it positive. You must remain steadfast, comprehend what the truth is, and “live with” what you see as the only way to reject other people’s ideas or anything similar.

Sam also spoke of his professional career, adding to the outlet: “There’s a lot of work stuff that I’m doing that I want to let the work do the talk, and with acting, it’s what comes next and all the work that you’re putting in. I then completed a few projects and am excited to announce them.

Being a single mother has forced Laura Anderson to turn down employment opportunities.

The former Love Island star, 35, hit out at ex partner Gary Lucy as she claimed “co-parenting and financial support didn’t exist” for her in 2024. The pair share daughter Bonnie, 15 months, but split while Laura was pregnant. Despite briefly getting back together, they split again shortly after.

Now, Laura has opened up on her experience as a single mum, saying it hadn’t been easy. She claimed to have been “struggling everyday” financially.

In a social media upload, she wrote: “‘ Not your usual New Year post but this is all I had time to collate. Instead of sharing pictures to tell a story, I’ll just tell you in words. 2024 wasn’t easy. Never did I anticipate being able to live alone as a single parent. I always make plans to run to Dubai when I’m depressed, which Bonnie and I always do.

Because I knew I had to make a terrible life for my incredible daughter, I had an epiphany and made the conscious choice to avoid being a victim. I got my dream job as a Radio Presenter, topped listener figures, featured on a billboard, a tram and did my first outdoor broadcast at the 02. “

She continued:” My mum and I went on holiday for the first time in years, 3 generations of fun, it was really special. We celebrated Bonnie’s first birthday in style by starting her to eat and walk. I then confessed my love for a handsome man named Clark to a mysterious manifesto. If that was in pictures it’d look pretty good but I missed out on many work opportunities, more importantly special moments with my daughter and co-parenting/financial support didn’t exist. “

As she went on to share her struggles, Laura said:” I struggle everyday like most to find the perfect balance in life. I undoubtedly invested the euromillions last night in the hopes of winning, believing that all of my issues would vanish, but that is not the case. So I’m sitting still as I go over my vision board today and reflecting on the things I’m hoping will improve next year. Whatever it may entails, I just want Bonnie to be happy, healthy, and safe. Happy New Year, everyone.

“P. s You could be a millionaire entrepreneur, viral, abtastic, big lipped, business person dripping in Cartier and own 5 birkans but, I truly believe although striving for success is great-its also exhausting and a ‘ mediocre ‘ life is pretty great too! Don’t put too much pressure on yourself or those around you in 2025 because tomorrow isn’t certain and we are all just trying our best and winging each precious day. All we really need is love.

After their appearance on the Jerry Springer Show, the son of the woman who was killed by her ex-husband has revealed that it destroyed both his and his mother’s lives.

Jeffrey Campbell speaks out on Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action on Netflix, which goes behind the scenes of the hyped up US talk show similar to ITV ‘ s The Jeremy Kyle Show.

Ralf Panitz appeared on the show with his wife Eleanor and ex-wife Nancy Campbell-Panitz, Jeffrey’s mother, in 2000. However, Panitz fatally beat 52-year-old Nancy in her Sarasota home in Florida shortly after it first aired on television.

Jeffrey said, “It surprised me when she mentioned joining the show. She didn’t like having her pictures taken much. She always had to hide her face or hide behind something, so to see her up there on the stage, just looking like a deer caught in the headlights, like what is going on here? I just wish I could go back and say ‘ don’t do it'”.

When Nancy was a widower raising two children online, Panitz and Nancy met. He immigrated to the US from Germany, and Nancy filed for divorce because of domestic abuse issues. Although Panitz had remarried before the Jerry Springer show appearance, the two appeared to be in touch once more.

Jeffrey said, “My mother thought Ralf had been deported to Germany, that the show was going to pay for his return to America, that they would reconcile, and that he would tell his new girlfriend that he wanted to be with my mother. But she was basically lied to, because that never happened”.

Instead, Panitz claimed on stage that he had slept with Nancy the night before but that he still loved her and was staying. The show was called Secret Mistresses Confronted. Eleanor called her a “redheaded bitch from hell” to make matters worse. Even after producers told her she wouldn’t receive a return flight ticket to Florida if she didn’t, a humiliated Nancy left the TV stage and refused to go back out.

Jeffrey claims his mum was “ambushed” by the show. After someone took her for granted at a bus station and offered her a seat at the airport in Chicago to Florida, she was eventually given a seat. Amazingly after the show recorded, Nancy and Panitz got together again, although the details are unclear.

Jeffrey explained: “Somehow they got back together, she put money down at home, and then he went back to his old ways, apparently, threatened her again, and she wasn’t going to take it”. A judge granted Nancy “sole ownership of the home and a restraining order against him” in a court case.

Panitz left the court quietly before moving on to a bar where their Jerry Springer episode was currently playing on TV. He returned to his home and killed Nancy after drinking and appearing to be getting more and more enraged about the show. In the documentary at the time, Sprinkling says, “I don’t mean to trivialize this. It was a very, very sad event, but it has nothing to do with the show”.

Tobias Yoshimura, a former producer, once said, “Are we accountable for months after they leave the show for everything that happens in their life?” We’re not. We’re not responsible for that”. Panitz, 42, was at the time guilty of second-degree murder and given a life sentence for the murder of his ex-wife on July 24, 2000. The May 2000 recording of the show was complete.

During sentencing, Judge Nancy Donnellan said: “Ralf Panitz, Eleanor Panitz and Nancy Campbell were brought to Chicago by the Jerry Springer Show, then manipulated by producers of that show. Do ratings matter more than the respect for a person’s dignity? Shame on you. Shame on you”.

Jeffrey said, “I feel like the middle of my life has been completely erased by this entire circumstance.” I’m currently hoping to have a successful career and be progressing. But here I am, 24 years later, still talking about it. You know, it’s had a pretty big impact and it’s hard to trust people. I don’t think they have ever been held accountable for anything. I’m sure there have been other people who have been affected, other guests we don’t know about, or people watching at home thinking ‘ this is normal’. It’s not”.

A former guest named Melanie recalls receiving free booze to help them wind up in another episode of the two-part series. She says: “They gave us so many drink tickets. They were like, go hog wild, have fun. And so we got wasted. And then we got to the hotel. We managed to keep the party going. We probably slept for an hour or so before going to bed until four in the morning. I probably got to the green room at like, six o’clock in the morning. The producers were present right away, just a little bit like teaching us how to act and what to say.

Two ex-producers on the show back up her versions of events, and say the coaching was known as being “Springered”. Springer died in 2023 after suffering from cancer. On his X profile, Springer had jokingly referred to himself as a “Talk show host, ringmaster of civilization’s end”. He is reportedly quoted as saying in an interview that, “I want to take this opportunity to apologise for everything I’ve ever done” in an old social media clip. I have ruined the culture”.

*Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action is available on Netflix from January 7.

Fans of Meghan Markle have criticized her title, which suggests she might not be Prince Harry’s daughter.

The Duchess of Sussex’s own solo Instagram account, which has almost 400,000 followers at the time of writing, has since resurrected the spotlight. She returned with the simple handle, ‘ meghan’, and one singular post, a video reel. However, the account has yet to be verified with a blue tick.

Before she bends over to write “2025” in the wet sand, the royal and former actress ran along the beach. Despite rumors about the relationship’s state, her husband, Prince Harry, reportedly filmed the video. Prince Harry was even forced to laugh off the rumors because the royal couple have been appearing at events by themselves.

A pal previously claimed that their relationship is “functional and healthy,” but that work is just getting in the way. And now, after Meghan’s return to social media, fans pointed out that her profile first only stated her first name before it was changed to ‘ Meghan, Duchess of Sussex’.

A royal fan page on X/Twitter questioned whether the couple got married after noticing the alleged mistake. They wrote along with screenshots of Meghan’s profile before and after it was changed: “Meghan’s Instagram has already had an update, changing her name in the profile from” Meghan “to” Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. “

” Hopefully we will see another update, as she left out the “The” in her title. No “The” before Duchess of Sussex means she is a divorcee. “The Mirror have reached out to Meghan’s reps for comment. When Prince Harry laughed off the rumours of a split, he added that he felt ‘ genuinely ‘ sorry for the trolls, whose” hopes are just built and built, and it doesn’t happen”.

Meghan and her husband Harry exchange some festive cheer with their 2024 Christmas card, which includes a happy family photo, while Meghan’s return to Instagram continues. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s card last month showcased a new snap of their children, Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3.

The children’s enthusiastic hurst toward their parents in one of the six photos in the greeting. Meghan and Harry greet Lili, affirming Harry’s recent comments about her long, red hair, just like her big brother, while Meghan beams at Archie. On behalf of the office of Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Archewell Productions and Archewell Foundation, “the card’s message read.

Glastonbury’s reported headliner, Neil Young, has pulled out of the festival as he branded the festival a ‘ corporate turn-off’.

The 79-year-old and his live band, The Chrome Hearts, were said to be performing at the 2025 festival held on Worthy Farm in Somerset. He stated his decision to leave the Glasto stage 16 years ago, explaining his reasoning on Neil Young Archives.

He stated in a statement on the website Neil Young Archives that “we were informed that Glastonbury’s BBC was now a partner and that they wanted us to do a lot for things that we were not interested in.” Glastonbury appears to be in corporate control and no longer exists as it seems. Due to the corporate nature of Glastonbury, we will not be playing it on this tour.

“I’m looking forward to seeing you at one of the other stops on the tour.” The Harvest Moon musician added, “Be well,”’ after he finished the statement by adding “Hi.” What was the BBC’s intention, it’s not clear. According to a previous source, Neil and his band were “firming up plans” for Glastonbury Festival and European tour dates.

The source claimed to The Sun at the time, “Glastonbury appears to be leaning back into its roots of rock, and if they can secure Neil it would be an amazing addition to what is already shaping up to be an incredible line-up.” The BBC has reached out for comment from The Mirror.

Neil previously disclosed that he was changing his outdoor concert plans and was considering changing them. According to Neil, “We don’t want to have any concerts cancelled for health reasons next summer,” and that is what he wrote on his website.

Eagled-eyed fans also noticed that his website was updated to include a picture of a ticket from 2009’s Glastonbury. Sharing a screenshot of Neil’s website update on Twitter (X) last month, The Glasto Thing account wrote:” There’s a bit of a (for me) too good to be true rumour floating about. Neil Young has set up his Glastonbury 2009 set up on his website just to lighten the flames. Add in the fact that he is planning dates in Europe for the following year, plus a few other little details, and…

Rihanna, the singer, has not held back as she responded to a disgruntled fan’s request for a new album.

Fans frequently ask the Barbadian singer when she will release a new album, especially since her previous album, which was top-seller eight years ago, has. One fan, however, overreacted. A Twitter account has shared the exchange between the two when a fan commented on her Instagram, as they wrote: “We want an album forehead”.

Not holding back, Rihanna responded: “Listen Lorenzo! You’re too cute to refer to me as “you dizzy f***” and call me my black name! Fans on X have praised the SOS singer’s response, as one replied: “Love her forever”. Another added: “I love her sense of humor”. A third posted: “the og badgalriri entered the 2025 with us omg”.

Rihanna is one of the best-selling recording artists ever, with sales estimated at 250 million units globally. Following the release of her first two studio albums, Music of the Sun in 2005 and A Girl Like Me in 2006, the artist gained notoriety. Fans haven’t received a single from the singer since 2016, but they are increasingly demanding a new album.

Fans have been begging for new music from Rihanna in a recent Instagram post showing her partying with friends for New Year’s Eve. One fan posted: “New year new music”? Another shared: “New album too please”.

Rihanna made the comments online as she hinted that she might be making music again after telling fans she’s “starting over.” In a previous interview, the 36-year-old singer mentioned using a “new perspective” and then teased the subject of this possibility. Speaking to Billboard, Rihanna said: “If I could only do a song with Billie Eilish. She’s so good”.

The mother-of-two Rihanna revealed to Entertainment Tonight that she was going back to the drawing board after almost finishing the new album. This isn’t the first time she has hints that new music is coming out. She said: “Yeah, I’m starting over. However, I don’t want to ignore the songs I already have, so I actually want to go back and listen to the music with fresh eyes, a new perspective, and then check out what works and what I still love.

Although it’s been confirmed that her ninth album is in the works, fans are already anticipating its huge success. The new work is long awaited as her last, Anti, was released in January 2016, and featured Work, her collab with rapper Drake, which peaked at number two in the UK charts. With her Fenty fashion and beauty range, Rihanna has a fashion and cosmetic empire, which helped her become a billionaire last year.
