Sophia Ruby, Liberty Rose, Johnny, and Jack are the couple’s four children. On their podcast, The Therapy Crouch, they frequently discuss the joys and sorrows of married life.

On a recent episode Abbey and Peter both revealed their frustration with the school summer holidays. Peter, 44, said: “I can’t wait for this f*****g summer to be over.”

Abbey, 39, responded, “Oh no, kids, we’re done with the kids,” It’s very long, really.

Abbey revealed that Jack, their son, wants to own a pet lizard. While the model hoped that the children would “forget about” it, husband Peter feared that wouldn’t be the case.

Due to the “reno” she was planning, she continued, saying that the family’s Surrey home wouldn’t have room for any new pets. She said, “There were a few things, she said she wanted to change a few cupboards, and I said, “Ok, that sounds fine,” and it’s now completely redecorated.

Abbey stated that she wanted the “perfect” family home. She responded, “I just think we should just do it once and do it perfect, do it great,” and that’s not even close.

Peter acknowledged that Abbey keeps giving him the “ultimatum” to move into a new home or redecorate. Abbey stated that she wants the family’s home to be updated for the age of the children.

Former Liverpool forward Peter and Abbey met in a bar in 2005. Recalling how they met during an interview on Good Morning Britain, Abbey said: “When we first met, he begged me for my number and then I went to the loo or the bar, and when I came back, he was talking to another girl. I was like, ‘How dare you?’”

Abbey asked for her number back, but Peter continued to say that he was “just talking” to the other girl. He continued, “You can’t give someone your number and then take it back,” as I previously said.

India’s Ashwin retires from IPL to focus on T20 cricket overseas

Ravichandran Ashwin, the spinner for the Indian Premier League (IPL), has announced that he will return to play for franchise cricket in other nations.

The 38-year-old also represented Rising Pune Supergiant, Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, and Kings XI Punjab before beginning and ending his IPL career with his hometown team, Chennai Super Kings.

The 38-year-old posted on X on Wednesday, “They say every ending will have a new start, my time as an IPL cricketer comes to a close today, but my time as an explorer of the game around different leagues begins.”

He continued, “Look forward to enjoying and making the most of what lies ahead of me.”

Any current international or domestic cricket player in India is not permitted to play in international competitions by the Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI).

With 187 wickets in 221 games and a 7.2% economy rate, Ashwin is the fifth-highest wicket-taker in the IPL.

The off-spinner, who had taken 537 Test wickets, 156 one-day international wickets, and 72 T20 wickets, left international cricket in December 2024.

In India’s Test innings, only Anil Kumble’s 619 wickets surpassed Ashwin.

In 2011, Ashwin made his Test debut against West Indies, and received the award for the match, with scores of 9-128 overall.

In his 106 Test matches, the Chennai-born bowler recorded eight 10-wicket totals and hit six centuries.

The second of a five-test tour of Australia saw India suffer a 3-1 series defeat. In November of this year, 2022, Ashwin played his final T20 international.

In separate coordinated operations along Benin-Lagos and Benin-Akure roads, the Edo State Police Command claims to have rescued sixteen kidnap victims.

This is in line with a statement from Joel Yamu, the command’s spokesman, who claimed the operations were coordinated with local hunters and vigilantes in the area.

“Six victims were rescued along the Benin–Akure Road, one of whom received a gunshot wound during the attack, was saved from the scene by public-spirited individuals, and is currently receiving treatment,” according to the report. Along the Benin–Lagos Road, three more victims were safely rescued, too, according to the statement’s description.

Additionally, according to Wikipedia, seven Benin-Akure road kidnapping victims were freed in the evening of August 25, 2025.

The statement continued, “Dispair calls were immediately received, resulting in the prompt mobilization of security resources.

In concert with tactical teams, vigilantes, and local hunters, the Iguobazuwa Division and Ekiadolor Division conducted extensive bush-combing operations to pursue the hoodlums and secure the release of the victims.

According to him, the Benin–Akure axis operation was led by the Edo State Police Commissioner, Monday Agbonika.

The Command deployed advanced technical support, including drones, to improve precision and coordination during the rescue operations.

Agbonika praised the operatives and the crucial role that vigilantes and neighborhood hunters played in the operations.

He noted that violent crime is still effectively fought against by the combination of formal law enforcement and community structures.

The commander was assured that it would hold off until the perpetrators had been apprehended and the remaining victims had been rescued.
