Hollywood's glossiest names have been dragged into the It Ends with Us fallout - and this time, it’s their private words doing the damage. Lively alleges Baldoni entered an editing bay to view her cut of the film 'without authorization', after she had already completed her own edit. Slate tells Lively about what she calls Baldoni’s 'unprofessional behavior' and the ‘weird stuff he pulled’ during the first half of filming. In the texts, Reynolds vented about Baldoni and his team failing to publicly own up to reports of on-set tension. The deposition included a review of texts Slate sent to her former agent detailing her time on the set.

This weekend's monster winter storm has been dubbed 'the worst in a lifetime' by meteorologists across the US. He warned that the Delta region in Southeast Arkansas and western and northern Mississippi face an ice storm so extreme that it could knock out heat and electricity for up to two weeks in certain areas. And if they don't have that, then staying in their house is not a safe, viable option. 'If you're younger than 40 years old, then you may be experiencing the worst winter weather of your lifetime depending upon where you are over the next 10-14 days,' Maue said in a social media post. While winter storms do hit the South, the cold weather typically doesn't last long, with snow and ice melting quickly.

Biology is “incredibly cruel on women”, and she decided to freeze some eggs at age 40, she said. For an increasing number of parents now however, having a child when they are older is no accident. When he began working there in 2005, only three per cent of women attending were over 40.

The west of Ireland rain couldn’t stay away, of course. There were ten players on the teamsheets who had named in Andy Farrell’s Six Nations squad three days earlier, eight from Leinster. An easy conversion left it 20-13 and then Connacht went and nixed the next three Leinster entries into their 22. Connacht: S Gilbert; S Jennings, H West, C Forde, F Treacy; J Ioane, C Blade; B Bohan, D Tierney-Martin, S Illo; J Murphy, D Murray; C Prendergast, P Boyle, S Jansen. Leinster: C Frawley; J Kenny, G Ringrose, C Tector, J Lowe; H Byrne, F Gunne; J Boyle, G McCarthy, N Smyth; RG Snyman, J Ruan; A Soroka, W Connors, C Doris.

Ireland head coach Andy Farrell is facing into a full-blown prop crisis ahead of Thursday week’s Six Nations opener away to France with Leinster’s Jack Boyle the latest loosehead to come a cropper in recent weeks. Boyle stayed down after a scrum 20 minutes into Leinster’s URC game away to Connacht on Saturday evening, eventually being stretchered off. Inexperienced as he is, Boyle was Ireland’s most likely starting loosehead against the French until this.

Violence towards women, including strangulation, is now a dominant theme of mass-market, super-accessible pornography. A 2010 study of themes of aggression in porn videos found that strangulation was almost niche. Porn, like most other forms of content online, has become exponentially more extreme as it competes for our attention. “Choke me, Daddy” is a staggeringly normal part of the modern online vernacular – well beyond the boundaries of porn sites. In response, the French minister for gender equality said: “Au revoir.”[ I’ve seen men watch porn in my workplaces.

Mr Lazzarini said it followed other steps taken by Israeli authorities to “erase the Palestine refugee identity”. Israel’s foreign ministry said UNRWA “long ceased to be a humanitarian aid organization, serving instead as a greenhouse for Hamas terrorism”. Ms McEntee said she was “appalled by the further destructive actions taken by Israeli authorities” In a statement, she said: “These actions are not isolated incidents. “They form part of a wider and sustained effort to undermine and dismantle UNRWA’s operations across the occupied Palestinian territory. “These organisations are delivering life-saving assistance and essential services to civilians across the occupied Palestinian territory and the wider region.

An entrepreneur and her husband who built a 'granny-annexe' in their back garden for his elderly parents were left stunned this week after learning they had been ordered to tear it down - after never obtaining 'correct planning permission'. Now, after losing a last-ditch appeal, the couple have been given 12 months to demolish the unlawful extension. Mr Seraj said: 'This is the first we have heard about any decision to demolish any building work. Our architect has been dealing with the planning application and the council, and we have had no updates since May/June last year.' She said: 'The appellants accept that the works have taken place, and for which they do not have planning permission.

Premier League: Burnley 2 Spurs 2Cristian Romero’s last-minute header rescued Tottenham a point in a 2-2 draw at Burnley but the Londoners’ winless Premier League run in 2026 was extended to five matches. Wilson Odobert was twice denied by Dubravka, who then produced an even better save to keep out Conor Gallagher’s thumping drive. Burnley then failed to properly clear Spence’s cross after the ensuing corner and Van de Ven rifled the loose ball into the bottom corner. Odobert spurned a chance to double the visitors’ lead soon after when he shot straight at Dubravka and their lead was short-lived. Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario rescued his side when saving in a one-on-one with Broja and Dubravka turned away Spence’s low effort as both sides chased a second goal.

Westmeath’s Tadhg Baker, with Ray Connellan (right) and Jonathan Lynam in support, tries to set up an attack during the recent O’Byrne Cup final against Kildare. Westmeath’s promotion hopes could hinge on Clare clashKEVIN EGAN previews Westmeath's Allianz Football League Division 3 campaign which begins with a clash against Sligo at TEG Cusack Park tomorrow Sunday (2pm). Considering that Roscommon are the overwhelming favourites for relegation from Division One, the two counties could well meet again in the 2027 league. The talent is still there so this is a minefield of a fixture, but one that Westmeath should still win. Last year’s championship defeat to Limerick will then resurface when the Treaty men travel to Mullingar for a game that could be every bit as consequential as that Tailteann Cup game.

Portions of how City managed that will offer some encouragement, a creative box midfield and split strikers while Erling Haaland and Phil Foden sat on the bench. The second half of the sequence in particular, all about moving the ball at 45–degree angles and ending with Semenyo's two–touch finish, also passing into the far corner seconds before half–time. But as Haaland was given much of the afternoon off, it can't have been a look into the future. Guardiola isn't buying what the referees are selling, taking another pot shot at them – and PGMO chief Howard Webb. 'The referee makes his debut and now everyone will know him,' Guardiola said coldly.

More than half the plants in this small half-hectare are food for the birds, making the Grove Donnybrook’s top, Michelin-starred dining spot for wildlife. Forest schools, outdoor learning, and reconnecting children with nature are laudable goals, but like all human activities, they’re not neutral acts. It’s the uncomfortable truth at the heart of this study: not all green spaces should be multipurpose. Across Ireland, “underutilised” green spaces, waterways and bogs are being activated and opened up for whatever nature can offer us. The Grove is a reminder that nature doesn’t always do well for our attention.
