Following the success of her new Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, fans have been enjoying seeing Meghan Markle in a more relaxed, off duty role. Although the Duchess of Sussex opted for plenty of chic, tailored outfits whilst hosting the new series, in the past she’s been known for an even more relaxed style.

Back in 2015 in a now-deleted post on Instagram, Meghan showed off her laid-back look with a snap of herself wearing a T-shirt that said “Mermaid Off Duty”, captioning the post: “So… pretty much my favourite t-shirt of all time. Mermaid off duty. Love”! Although it’s been a decade since Meghan raved about the top, fans of the adorable slogan top will be pleased to know you can still pick up a version of it on Amazon for £17.49.

The slogan t-shirt has a relaxed, oversized fit and comes in sizes small to 3XL in both women’s and men’s cuts. Meghan opted for the white version with red lettering, but you can also pick it up in black, navy, royal blue and pale blue.

It’s also made from 100% cotton in some colours, whilst others are made from 50%-90% cotton and 10%-50% polyester. Despite the design clearly being around for a long time, it appears to be a recent addition to Amazon, with only one review so far from a shopper who rated it four out of five stars.

Amazon isn’t the only place to nab yourself a cute slogan T-shirt, however. New Look has a fantastic selection, that ranges from place names like New York, Paris and Texas, to colourful prints and designs inspired by everything from cocktails to bands.

Meanwhile over at ASOS, there are plenty of different cuts and silhouettes to choose from. From oversized baggy band T-shirts to cropped babydoll tees inspired by the 90s with different designs and brand logos on, there’s something for everyone.

Slogan T-shirts have always been a go-to for off duty celebs and models – who can forget Paris Hilton’s iconic “That’s Hot” t-shirt from the early 00s?! They’re also the easiest way to make a casual every day outfit look a little more intentional, bringing a bit of quirkiness and edge to an otherwise simple outfit.

Jungle star Danny Jones and wife Georgia have put on a public show of togetherness after the McFly star’s kiss with Maura Higgins.

The pair were seen together for the first time since Danny’s boozy 3am kiss at a BRIT Awards afterparty with his fellow I’m a Celebrity star.

A source said: “They are clearly looking to put things behind them, and move on with their lives. It really hasn’t been a good time at all but they are very much together. “

Onlookers remarked how the two appeared “very serious” after being seen in Richmond, south-west London, nursing coffees as they walked on the green. But a source said: “They are positive people and can look to the future together. Things have been hard but they are moving forward as a couple. “

The pair have kept a low-profile ever since Danny was caught on film at 3am kissing Maura on March 2, at the London afterparty. The pair were seen smiling as they left the London bash shortly afterwards. A second video emerged showing Danny and Maura at another party at Nobu Hotel in Marylebone.

Georgia yesterday broke her social media silence by posting a picture of their seven-year-old son Cooper on her Instagram feed. Danny meanwhile has remained silent.

An insider told the Mirror last week Danny’s behaviour has been a “slap in the face” for wife Georgia, 38, as they underwent crisis talks. Danny and Georgia, a former Miss World, married in 2014 after meeting in 2009 at a Miss London event

She recently opened up about their romance on a podcast, saying they didn’t originally gell. She admitted: “He was a bit of a d*ck, and I didn’t really like him. ” He spent the next year trying to win her over, she said.

“He tried for a year,” she revealed. “I do like to drop that into conversation every now and again. He wanted me for a year. I said no. I was totally chilled when we went on the date.

“I didn’t really want to. My mum went, ‘Oh darling, what have you got to lose? Go on, go and enjoy yourself. ‘” She said she had reasons to be skeptical, adding: “I said he’s probably going to be a bit of a top shagger, isn’t he. I just assumed.

“I treated him mean, kept him keen – without realising. I didn’t know I was doing that. ” The couple latter got engaged in 2013 during a romantic holiday in Cyprus, before tying the knot in Georgia’s hometown of Malton.

“When I saw Georgia, I couldn’t really take it. My legs shook. It was the most amazing view I’ve ever seen,” he said of seeing her at the wedding. The Mirror told this week how Maura was “in a bad way…… . and really struggling” in the wake of her drunken kiss with Danny.

The ex-Love Island star, 34, has flown to Los Angeles for a photo shoot amid the furore. Friends say the last week has been horrendous as she has been deluged with horrific trolling, with one saying: “Maura is a tough character but the reaction has been utterly relentless, it’s taken its toll. She has found it very difficult to navigate.

“She appreciates she is in the public eye and there is extra interest around her, but the abuse is off the charts, and people need to calm down. ” Maura looked downcast as she was spotted at Los Angeles International Airport at the end of last week. The friend added: “She is trying to treat things as business as usual, but it’s hard. “

Glastonbury Festival fans are excited as they speculate a band, fresh off releasing a new album this year, might be playing at the iconic music event.

The initial line-up dropped by Glastonbury Festival already boasts The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo, and Neil Young as Pyramid Stage headliners. However, fans are eager to find out who else will join the roster, with discussions heating up on r/GlastonburyFestival.

Some are pointing towards the enduring chart-toppers known for their hit “Let’s Dance to Joy Division”, with many festival-goers convinced they’ll make the cut in upcoming announcements.

One hopeful fan posted: “The Wombats? Thought they’d be a shoo-in with their new album and them touring (playing Liverpool June 19), wonder if a band of this size could get announced later on”?

Given that The Wombats released their latest album, Oh! The Ocean, on February 14 and have tour dates lined up, they’re seen as a strong contender for Glastonbury.

Another added: “They announced a large chunk of the Woodsies line up later on in April last year, including some good additions like the Vaccines. So I’m also preying for a Wombats announcement! You’d think it’d be likely”.

A third commented: “Other Stage first band of the festival”. Regardless of where they might play, fans are confident that The Wombats would draw a significant crowd at the festival.

Music fans have been buzzing about potential acts for the festival, with one attendee sharing optimistic nostalgia. They wrote: “They would definitely pull a good crowd that’s for sure everyone loves the nostalgia vibes should of seen Scouting for Girls last year if you missed them couldn’t even get near the tent at the acoustic stage”.

Another agreed with the excitement the band may bring, adding: “These would be a great one to start the festival off with early on Friday when energy levels are high”.

The Wombats speculation is rife, too, with some suggesting even without an official announcement, a surprise set might be on the cards. One hopeful fan proposed: “If they don’t open they could potentially do a Park/Woodsies Secret set”?.

Others suggested different scenarios for the band’s appearance, with one fan pointing out: “Potential for a Thursday night set or like others have said early Friday set. I really like their new album”.

Another somewhat demystifying the hype added: “As a fan of the band, they really aren’t that big. So yeah, no doubt they could be announced”.

Meanwhile, Glastonbury Festival regulars are fretting over a tough decision on the horizon as Neil Young and Charli XCX are poised to go head-to-head.

This scheduling conflict has sparked debates, with one perplexed festival-goer querying the pulling power of the classic rock icon: “How many people do we actually think want to see Neil Young? I’ve seen people online say they’re interested however at my work we are all going and all varying ages and music tastes and I don’t know a single person who intends on going to watch him”.

Prince William joked he had “broken the record for the most amount of high fives in 10 minutes” after being mobbed by school kids.

The Prince of Wales headed to the West Midlands today to have a go at refereeing at a training course at Sporting Khalsa FC in Willenhall. The course, which has been running since July 2023 and combines practical and theory training, is part of the Football Association’s Reflective and Representative campaign – which aims to recruit 1, 000 people from black, Asian and mixed heritage backgrounds into refereeing roles.

But before making it inside the football ground, William was welcomed by hundreds of schoolchildren and locals who had gathered to meet him.

He said: “Hello, it’s nice to see you all”, as he posed for selfies, gave hugs and high fives and chatted with pupils from the nearby Fibbersley Park Academy who had made posters and flags and chanted his name. Aston Villa supporter William seemed particularly impressed by a poster made by a pupil which referenced his team, which read: “Aston Villa is the best” and gave a thumbs up, while another read: “Hello Prince William, I hope you are a good ref, good luck”.

Inside the grounds, the prince joined a refereeing theory lesson, spoke to course trainers and learned about fouls, whistle tones and flag signalling. He also met professional referee and lieutenant in the British Army, Levi Gray, to hear about her career journey.

Speaking after meeting the prince, she said: “It was brilliant, I am so pleased I could be here and that he could come down and support an event like this.

” We spoke about women in football, which I think is definitely growing, and how different the women’s game is to the men’s in terms of it being a bit more of a family event and a bit more supportive, and spoke about diversity events like this and how important it is that you can see it and believe it.

“We want to be able to see people who are watching football at home or on the sidelines and think ‘ that could be me’. Without events like this where you build representation, that won’t happen”.

Lt Gray said she got into refereeing because there were not many football teams for girls when she was growing up. She added: “I refereed before I joined the Army, I am in the Infantry and there aren’t many women in the Infantry either. With football, I was used to dealing with 22 men on a pitch, so in the Army, I thought I could deal with a team of 30, so I think it has helped me with my own career.

” I got into it because I love football and when I was growing up, girl’s teams weren’t as big where I lived so I couldn’t play, so instead I thought I would do refereeing and I’ve never stopped since. “
