The Balmoral Estate announced this week that royal fans will soon, for the first time, be able to wander through some of the family’s living quarters at the Scottish Highlands estate.
The new tour of the interiors of the Scottish castle, beloved of both the current Monarch and the late Queen, isn’t easy on the wallet though, with the small group visits costing £100 a ticket, or £150 if you enjoy afternoon tea too.
Until now, public access to the
HIS onscreen swagger — and those unforgettable belted cardigans — made Paul Michael Glaser the epitome of 1970s cool. Starring alongside David Soul in the iconic detective show Starsky & Hutch, Paul, who played the streetwise Starsky, was all action, all wisecracks.
So indelibly is he linked to his most famous macho cop character, it’s something of a surprise to be faced with such a thoughtful, introspective man.
Part of that introspection may lie in the fact that this is
Adele Roberts has revealed her ‘beautiful’ mother Jackie Roberts passed away aged 61 earlier this month, in an emotional post shared on Sunday.
The Dancing On Ice star, 44, shared the heartbreaking news that ‘her hero’ Jackie had died on 4 January followed by a funeral last week on Instagram following her ’emotional’ performance on the ITV skating show earlier in the evening.
The Radio 1 presenter explained she didn’t want to share the news of her mother’s passing until
Christine Dawood still can’t quite believe that her husband of 20 years, Shahzada, and their precious son, Suleman, are no longer with her. It is now seven months since she last saw them climbing into the Titan submersible for, what she calls, ‘the big one’ in terms of this remarkable family’s many adventures.
Last June, one hour and 45 minutes into the dive in the North Atlantic to view the wreck of the Titanic, off the coast of Newfoundland, the
The final videos posted to Brittany Sauer’s TikTok page make for upsetting viewing. Speaking tearfully to the camera, the 31-stone social media star, who often posted defiantly ‘body-positive’ content about how ‘hot’ she felt in certain outfits, admitted with shocking candour that she had ‘ruined her life’ with food and binge eating.
And it had left her, aged just 28, full of regrets.
Brittany had been a virtual prisoner in her own home for two years, dealing with type 2
This time of year is always difficult for those who have lost a loved one, but for Melissa Mead and her husband Paul it is agonisingly so.
For it was in December 2014, with Christmas just days away, that their one-year-old son William – their firstborn and longed-for baby – died from sepsis after a catalogue of errors, misdiagnoses and missed opportunities to save him. As a result of the trauma Melissa and her husband were subsequently diagnosed with PTSD.
The cardboard boxes are almost as ancient as some of the contents. Glass baubles, fairy lights, bows and tinsel swags — they’re all here.
Some fragile cardboard and glitter decorations that my children made when they were small twinkle next to newer tin toys, collected on our travels.
These tiny trinkets are full of memories of Christmases past, and finding them each December, a sign of happy celebrations to come again.
For the past few years, though, most of my
When Michelle Sword emerged from her near-death experience she recalls doctors asking a series of probing questions as she lay in her hospital bed.
‘They asked whether I had an eating disorder, or I had intended to kill myself,’ Michelle recalls. ‘I told them no — I was just an idiot who should have known better.’
Only a few hours earlier, the 45-year-old mother of two had injected herself with a weight-loss drug pen that she had bought on the
The last time I visited Rebecca in the hospital, in September, 2022, we spent the afternoon researching hospice options and talking about her novel. Rebecca had been working on it for a decade, and for the past four years she’d been sick: lung cancer that spread to her bones, and then her brain. If I was being honest with myself, and I probably wasn’t, there was a kind of magical thinking embedded in the pleasure of hearing Rebecca talk about
Tearful Taylor Swift paid tribute to a young fan, who tragically succumbed to the extreme heat on Friday, while returning to the stage in Rio de Janeiro.
While seemingly paying her respects to Ana Clara Benevides, 23, the 33-year-old pop star sang her heart-wrenching track, Bigger Than the Whole Sky, about unimaginable grief and heartache as the show’s second surprise song.
‘Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / You were bigger than the whole sky / You were more than just a short
