After revealing that she is seeking therapy to make amends with her children, Jane Fonda has admitted she has been considering her final days and has specific burial plans.

Hollywood movie icon and political activist Jane Fonda has picked her specific burial plans and location as she maps out out her final days. Mother of three Fonda admitted that she has taken time to consider how she wants to end her days with a desire to be “at peace” with her family. Fonda has turned to therapy, aged 87, to help work through how to be in a great place with her kids.

Fonda has decided to be wrapped in a sheet and buried in a field area in a cemetery alongside her second husband, author and activist Tom Hayden, in Santa Monica, California. The environmentalist will not be cremated over the smoke damage.

Hayden, whom she married in 1973, was officially laid to rest at Woodlawn Cemetery in 2016. The Barbarella star wants to take her final breath surrounded by her closest friends and family.

Fonda stated, “I am aware of where I will be buried. I’ve resolved everything. Cremation releases chemicals into the atmosphere, which makes it bad. I detest the idea of being buried in a wooden box. I’m going to be buried next to my second husband, who is buried in a spot that’s similar to a native field with native grasses and no headstones, and it’s drought-resistant.

“And I don’t want the kids to have to go to different places to commune with us. And I believe we can commune with the dead.’ Fonda reflected on how death is a topic on her mind. “I think about my death a lot, and I think that that’s very healthy. That thinking about death gives meaning to life, you know? At 60, I thought a lot about ‘okay this is my last act. This is it.’ First 30 years, second 30 years, my last 30 years.”

What do I want to escape? I want to come to an end as unremorseful as possible, or at least least not one. Yes, because none of us know how we’ll pass away when we visualize our death, but having an idea is good.

“I want to be surrounded by people who love me in my bed in my home.” That requires that I make sure that everyone around me loves me. In my third act, I have to earn some love between now and then. And his dying father never spoke. I’d like to be able to talk and impart some wisdom, you know. I’ve given it some thought.

“And so it dictates my life in these final years. I’m almost 88. How I live so that I can reach my final destination. She spoke with XMNPR.

Fonda admitted her finale is centred on working on relationships with her kids. Fonda’s oldest child Vanessa Vadim, who was born in 1968, is her only child with her first husband, the late French filmmaker Roger Vadim. Hayden and Fonda welcomed a second child Troy in 1973 and adopted Mary Williams in the 1980s.

The Oscar winner Fonda is fighting to be in harmony with the three: “I’m going to have to pass away before my kids make peace with me because I certainly have not been a perfect parent. But I’ve done my best.

I’ve returned to therapy at the age of 87 because I want to understand why I wasn’t a better parent and why I didn’t make a better person. And I’m discovering the solution. when I said I didn’t want regrets.

I don’t want to feel regrettably. I’ve since entered therapy. So I won’t have any regrets and will understand what the event was all about.

A former The Only Way Is Essex reality TV star revealed his painful rash to his fans, saying that his health issues were “absolutely horrible.”

A reality TV star has shown off a nasty rash he has developed as he revealed a painful health condition. The former The Only Way Is Essex star took to Instagram to share the nasty update with his followers after discovering the rash on his neck.

Charlie King, 40, told his social media followers he has developed shingles. Uploading a snap of his neck to his Stories, Charlie showed his pain rash that was swollen with bumps.

Charlie described the situation as “proper lousy” and said, “Shingles are horrible (It’s like being stung by nettles & it not easing off).” And he later thanked his followers for their concern for his health.

Sincerely, thank you. I’ve received a lot of hugs, lovely messages, and apologies. Many of you have experienced it.

Charlie then admitted he didn’t have much knowledge of Shingles initially. He continued: “I didn’t know they could really take a hold like they have but in a weird guys, it’s a wake up call because I have been super stressed with numerous things this year and I’ve really let everything consume me, to knock me off balance.

I previously stated earlier this week that I haven’t been working out, eating well, and de-stressing. I’ve just kind of argued things, and they’re both bad.

He continued, “I’m taking the anti-viral medications and I’ll do what I need to do with this.” I simply want to feel better, I want to feel alert once more, and then we need to make a little more of a difference.

Shingles, according to the NHS, is an infection that can cause a rash. The health service says that first symptoms include feeling unwell and a tingling sensation on the skin.

Charlie, who first appeared on the popular reality television program in 2012, admitted last year that he was struggling as he watched his co-stars succeed after a botched nose job. Fans were captivated by the details of his relationship with Gemma Collins during his time on the program.

However, after quitting the show a year later, Charlie discovered himself becoming obsessed with his appearance. And he acknowledged that he ended up in a “dark place” rather than enjoying the success that the majority of the original cast of the reality show had.

He acknowledged that he would have enjoyed some of the opportunities that his fellow classmates have, but it hasn’t been realized. He later stated to The Sun, “I’ve watched them all go on all the other shows, a lot of them anyway, and you can’t help but wonder why it hasn’t quite happened for me because I’d love to do Dancing On Ice and I’d like to do more presenting.”

In this day and age, you can get very engrossed in your image, with what you believe you need to be, and of course, the social media world we live in, and my background with reality TV, exposure, and being in the spotlight once, but you can get very consumed with your looks.

Just weeks after ex-girlfriend Maura Higgins made fun of the Towie star, Pete Wicks and his “work wife” Olivia Attwood made fun of “cheating.”

Pete Wicks and Olivia Attwood appeared to joke about “cheating” shortly after his ex, Maura Higgins, implied infidelity was the reason they broke up.

At the BRIT Awards in March, Pete, 36, and Olivia, 34, couldn’t contain their laughter as they posed together on the red carpet. In an interview before heading into the event, they made a cheeky comment about “cheating” just after Pete gushed about his “work wife”, Olivia.

Pete told an interviewer that he was worried about his friend Sam Thompson, who would be sitting far away from him at the event, while he was off with Olivia. “It’s hard for Sam tonight because I’ve got a new work wife,” he started.

He continued: “It is a little bit weird because it feels like I am…”

“Cheating”? Both sprang into fits of laughter as Olivia interrupted. She continued, “Not for the first time, I might add.”

Pete’s friends have assured the press that he never cheated on ex Maura but she has implied otherwise. Just weeks before the BRIT Awards joke, Maura, 34, was spotted leaving a restaurant alone on Valentine’s Day. When asked by a fan where Pete was, she was filmed saying: “I don’t know, probably cheating.”

After being caught snuggling up to each other in Ibiza, Olivia and Pete have attracted attention this month. Pete’s arm slung around her waist as the Sunday Roast cohosts were pictured on a yacht. At a fan event for her show Bad Boyfriends, Olivia called herself a “bad girlfriend” and removed her wedding rings.

Bradley Dack, Olivia’s husband, was reportedly “fuming” about the Ibiza photo despite still showing up to support her at the start of series two of her show. Bradley tried to laugh it off, according to a source, but now he’s inside fuming.

Olivia has stated that she and Pete are just friends and that she understands why he was upset over the photos. The former Lover Islander acknowledged the controversy and claimed that her marriage had never been “perfect.”

“Me and Brad never pretend to have a perfect relationship, we have been up, down, left, backwards, and the last six months have been really challenging for us,” she told MailOnline.

We must constantly navigate our relationship because “my work and his work take precedence over everything.” We constantly have to work at it, which is the boring part of being an adult in a long-term relationship, and that’s exactly the way it is.

No one else really wants to say that in public, she continued, “but it’s challenging at times.” Although it’s wonderful to post a photo on Instagram, we’re transparent people, and that’s not always the case. There are ups and downs, his side hasn’t been great, and there’s a mix of things.

Brad has done the same thing, as I have done. No-one can be perfect if you just a little bit deeper than that, which is really easy to pretend to be.

A potential meeting with Prince Harry’s estranged father King Charles is on the cards as he prepares to make his UK return, but the King’s concern about Harry’s publicity could turn into a failure.

Prince Harry is just days away from touching down in the UK for the first time in several months, as he is set to attend the annual WellChild Awards in London.

While on his rare trip to UK shores, many have speculated on whether the Duke of Sussex will meet with his estranged father King Charles for the first time in almost two years.

While many royal fans and commentators are hoping for a father-son reconciliation, royal expert Katie Nicholl believes King Charles has a significant concern about potential reconciliation with his youngest son.

Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the Firm in 2020, the Sussexes have delivered a series of public jabs towards the royal family, in their tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, their documentary series on Netflix in 2022, and Prince Harry’s autobiography Spare in 2023.

The Sussexes and the royal family grew increasingly divided, with rumors that Prince Harry and King Charles were having disagreements over their relationship growing.

With a potential reconciliation between the two just days away, Katie Nicholl revealed that Harry would undoubtedly be concerned about Harry giving the news about their reunion.

“The reason his father is not speaking to him is because he fears that anything he might say will be made public in some shape or form,” the royal expert tells OK! magazine . “Let’s not forget that details of private conversations between Harry, Charles and William at an event as intimate as the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral were chronicled in Spare.

The King is understandably cautious of speaking to his son because so much has been broadcast in public and has been so disastrous for the monarchy. Charles has burned his fingers. So Harry must demonstrate that he can win back his father’s and his family’s trust.

Of course, it’s not just Harry and Meghan who have grown increasingly distant from the royal family. So too have their children – Archie, six, and Lilibet, four – who are now sadly cut off from their grandfather, King Charles, their aunt and uncle, The Prince and Princess of Wales, and their three young cousins, George, Charlotte and Louis.

This would be the most difficult pill to swallow for the late Queen, who had never been happier than when surrounded by close family. The King [Archie and Lilibet] would have caused her to be absolutely devastated, in my opinion.

They are sixth and seventh in the line of succession at the moment, so she would be very upset,” says Phil. “And I don’t think she would have liked the fact that Harry’s never met [Meghan’s father] Thomas Markle, or that the kids have never met him.” As for Harry himself, Phil says he’ll be feeling somewhat adrift without his grandmother, the late Queen’s, guiding hand.“I like to think he would be missing her,” he says. “I think he should be missing his father as well, I think he should be missing his brother – he should be missing everyone.“But he’s got himself into this situation and even if he’d won that case, I don’t think Meghan would particularly want to come back and spend much time in this country. I think she knows how unpopular she is, so I don’t think she’s going to come back, she’s not going to bring the kids. I don’t see any immediate resolution to it.

“In fact, I don’t actually think that William and Harry will ever repair their relationship. It is permanently damaged, unfortunately.” While the cracks in the royal family may appear deeper than ever, Katie is hopeful that the Prince and his father might one day patch up their differences.“I think there is still a chance that there can be a reconciliation,” she says. “The King is a magnanimous man and not a malicious man, and he’s also a man who wants a relationship with his youngest son, with his daughter-in-law and with the grandchildren.“I think there is a far greater hope for a reconciliation with Charles and Harry, than with Harry and William. And I think it’s goingto take time.

“It’s really down to Harry to prove that he can be trusted and that he’s prepared to listen to his father and drop this campaign, this mission he seems to be on, to trash his family and to hurt those who were once closest to him.”Harry’s approach to family relations is a far cry from that of the late Queen, who was very much in favour of forgiveness and building bridges. Despite once reportedly branding her “that wicked woman”, she grew fond of her daughter-in-law, Queen Camilla, over the years and also forged an amicable relationship with Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, whose two daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, she loved dearly.Phil says that, unlike Harry, “The late Queen wasn’t somebody who would hold grudges – she was somebody who would always try to resolve problems.”

India Hicks, the goddaughter of the Duchess of Kent, paid a heartbreaking tribute to the royal, who passed away earlier this week at the age of 92, and shared a touching tale.

The Duchess of Kent’s goddaughter has shared a heartbreaking tribute to the royal who died aged 92. Buckingham Palace announced on Friday that Her Royal Highness had died surrounded by her family on Thursday evening at her home, Wren House, Kensington Palace.

Katharine, the wife of the late Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Prince Edward, was last seen in public in October alongside her husband in a wheelchair. Following Her Majesty’s death in September 2022, Katharine had been the oldest living member of the Royal Family and has now been succeeded by her husband, the Duke of Kent.

However, in recent years, she has stepped back from public appearances and didn’t attend Queen Elizabeth’s funeral or King Charles’ Coronation in May 2023. Now, her goddaughter, model and philanthropist India Hicks, who works with the Harbour Island Foodbank, has taken to social media to reveal an insight into her bond with the Duchess.

My grandfather’s funeral was held on my 11th birthday, according to a quote shared by her godmother, India, the granddaughter of Lord Mountbatten. Following his assassination by the IRA, it occurred on September 5, 1979.

Princess Grace approached my mother before the service by walking down Westminster Abbey’s stairs. She noticed a gold cross I was wearing when she saw it and bent down to admire how lovely it was. I appreciate it. My godmother gave it to me today, and it is brand-new. I retorted “childishly.”

She continued, “My Godmother, the Duchess of Kent, had remembered that my birthday would be my. She had scheduled the engraving of this tiny cross with the date in a . She served as a dedicated wife. She attended my confirmation, my daughter’s baptism, and she was standing next to another outstanding godparent.

“She never forget a birthday or Christmas. She would send me letters to boarding school written in her beautiful spidery handwriting. A thoughtful and graceful godmother whose deeply personal faith journey left a lasting impression on me as a teenager. I woke to the news that my godmother had slipped away last night. There is a kind of blessing in departing peacefully after a long life threaded with such compassion, and devotion.”

A baby India was depicted in the photo along with her parents, Lady Pamela and David Hicks, her paternity, Lord Mountbatten, the Duchess of Kent, and the then-Prince Charles. In a second image, the Duchess and the model exchanging happy looks as they cooled off in the winter.

India’s grandfather, Lord Mountbatten, was murdered by the Irish Republican Army during a fishing trip in August 1979. Today, Buckingham Palace announced that the Duchess of Kent’s funeral will take place at Westminster Cathedral on Tuesday. King Charles, Queen Camilla and other senior members of the House of Windsor, as well as the Duchess’s close friends and family, are expected to attend the ceremony at Westminster Cathedral.

Prince Andrew, who is a non-working member of the firm, and Prince Harry, who is in the UK for a week, may also be in attendance. It will be the first royal Catholic funeral in modern history and the first royal funeral held at Westminster Cathedral since its construction in 1903. The duchess’s special military relationships will be reflected in aspects of the ceremony, which will start at 2pm.

Her coffin will be placed in the Kensington Palace private chapel ahead of the funeral, which will be officiated by the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster. On Monday, hearse will travel to Westminster Cathedral, where the Rite of Reception and Vespers will take place before the Lady Chapel will be where she will lay her head. The hearse will transport the coffin to the Royal Burial Ground in Frogmore, Windsor, after the funeral.

When Coldplay wrap up their epic Music of the Spheres World Tour, the numbers are truly staggering. Next week, they will make music history.

Coldplay are on course to make music history next week – as Chris Martin and co wrap up their epic Music of the Spheres World Tour. In an astonishing feat, the Devon lads are set to become the first band ever to sell more than 13 million tickets for a single tour.

When the band’s final ten-night hometown marathon performance takes place on Friday at Wembley Stadium, the record-breaking run will be sealed. According to music number-crunchers Pollstar, that performance will officially give them the largest concert tour audience of all time.

The Yellow hitmakers have smashed Taylor Swift ’s incredible Eras Tour tally by nearly three million tickets. Swift still keeps the crown for highest-grossing tour ever, pulling in a jaw-dropping £1.54 billion – but Coldplay aren’t far behind.

Martin’s men are set to pocket around £1.04 billion when the dust settles – and that’s before merch sales, which could add hundreds of millions more. That haul makes them the UK’s biggest-ever live earners, storming past Sir Elton John, whose Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour banked £718m.

It also means Coldplay are raking in a mind-blowing £5 MILLION every single night they hit the stage.The only Brit even close is Ed Sheeran, with £4.35m per gig. Veteran Rod Stewart’s Vegas residency brings in £783k a night, while comedy king Peter Kay nets £527k per show.

Although final figures won’t be announced until after Wembley, Pollstar boss Andy Gensler predicted that overall ticket sales will surpass 13 million. London should surpass $ 1.39 billion in cumulative gross revenues, which is already at $ 1.39 billion.

This year alone, the tour has pulled in £188 million from 2 million tickets. Since launching in Costa Rica back in March 2022, the globe-trotting spectacle has seen the band play 211 headline shows – plus festival spots at Rock in Rio and Glastonbury 2024. By next weekend, they’ll have notched up an incredible 16 Wembley Stadium sell-outs – more than any other venue on the tour.

This comes after the band were forced to halt their show twice as Chris Martin called in medical and security support. The band stopped their Wembley show on Saturday night during hit Sparks before halting it once again.

Frontman Chris caught the attention of security as he pointed into the crowd while pausing the rest of the band during their encore. Medics and security were seen entering the standing section of Wembley Stadium as a concerned Chris looked on.

It comes after Coldplay were forced to halt their show twice as Chris Martin called in medical and security support. The band stopped their Wembley show on Saturday night during hit Sparks before halting it once again.

Frontman Chris caught the attention of security as he pointed into the crowd while pausing the rest of the band during their encore. Medics and security were seen entering the standing section of Wembley Stadium as a concerned Chris looked on.

As they rushed over to the person in need, the crowd erupted in joy. After things seemed in order, Chris asked: “Does anyone else have any medical issues?” before returning to the set. Diabetes ? Anything we should be aware of”?

Before a second emergency struck the crowd right away, he managed to survive Sparks. Chris joked as the lights soared, “Oh god, we are making people faint.” Guy [Berryman] is at fault for being so attractive, that’s what it is. Looking at our bass player, everyone is fainting.

Chris, however, took it further when he pleaded, “Are you guys okay, come on. You are safe, and we have you. The singer said, “I hope you feel better, my brother. I hope you feel better. He’ll take care of you fairly well. Okay, that’s fine. You’ll be safe; all we do is hang out backstage.

Chris thanked the rest of the sold-out crowd for showing him gratitude. That is incredible.
