Gary Barlow, 53, singer, has spoken about the death of his daughter Poppy in a rare interview. “I was angry about it for a long time,” Barlow said on Australia’s The Imperfects podcast. To this day he hasn’t really found peace with it. In August 2012, Barlow and his wife Dawn Andrews’ fourth child was stillborn. “I don’t talk about it in great detail, and I really don’t because I’m still processing it a little bit. My wife’s feelings were very different than mine.” She handles it much better than he does and is a much stronger person. Luckily, the stroke of fate didn’t break them up like so many other couples. On the contrary: “It has brought us even closer together.”
Eva Mendes, 50, Hollywood actress, has no regrets about her retirement from Hollywood. She quickly came to an agreement with her husband Ryan Gosling, 43, about the division of labor: “It was almost a non-verbal agreement,” said Mendes on the “Today” show. After a years-long career with action and comedy hits (“2 Fast 2 Furious”, “Hitch – The Date Doctor”), she withdrew from Hollywood ten years ago with the birth of her first daughter with Gosling. “It was like, okay, he’s going to work and I’m going to work, I’m just going to work here,” Mendes said, referring to her shared home with Gosling.
Roland Kroos, 64, father of footballer Toni Kroos, was very happy about his son’s successful comeback in the German national football team. “The pressure and expectations were huge. Then of course it’s even nicer when he comes back with such a performance in the two games,” said the father Baltic Sea newspaper. “Toni’s security on the ball allows him to calm the game down, which is good for the German national team.” The Greifswald-born Kroos, who works for Spanish top club Real Madrid, returned to the DFB team after a break of almost three years and immediately impressed as an experienced boss in the game in the tests in France (2-0) and against the Netherlands (2-1). .
Charles III, 75, King of Great Britain, recalled the importance of mutual aid at Easter. The monarch sent an audio message to the traditional Royal Maundy service on Maundy Thursday, but was not expected to attend due to his cancer. Charles’ daughter-in-law Kate, 42, is also currently being treated for a cancer diagnosis. Jesus was an example of “how we should serve others and care for one another,” Charles said. He also recalled how much they as a nation need and benefit from those “who extend a hand of friendship to us, especially in times of need.”
Stefan Raab, 57, entertainer and television producer, is sparking new comeback speculation with a video on Instagram.
