ShOcking footage shows Seat Leon racing through suburban roads at 122mph… ‘uploaded by teen’ who was kiIIɘd in horrific head-on smash just hours later: Clip now part of police probe into crash that left four dɘad

Police investigating a horrific head-on crash in which three teenagers and a taxi driver all died are examining video footage showing a car speeding through a built-up area at more than 120mph.

The heart-stopping clip is understood to have been uploaded onto Instagram by one of the trio who died when their Seat Leon ploughed into a private hire car in Bolton in the early hours of Sunday.

It is believed to have been filmed at 3am on Saturday, just under 24 hours before the fatal smash, which also left five passengers needing hospital treatment.

Today, a family friend of one of the dead teenagers branded the clip ‘stupid’ and ‘crazy’, saying the boy’s father had been left ‘absolutely broken’.

It is revealed today as families living near the site of the horrific collision said they have been begging for safety measures for years.

Residents told how there are collisions along Wigan Road ‘every couple of months’.

They include a smash just before Christmas outside a primary school where a car collided with a wall just a few hundred yards from the scene of Sunday’s tragedy.

Debris including part of the car’s bumper is still present, while a wall adjacent to the school entrance is partially collapsed.

Footage understood to have been uploaded onto Instagram by one of the teenagers killed in Sunday’s horrific crash showing a Seat driving through a built-up area at over 120mph the night before is now being examined by police

But residents say they have been told that because previous incidents did not involve serious injury, statistics didn’t justify traffic calming or speed cameras.

A garage worker who knows the family of one of the teenagers killed in the crash said they ‘post stupid videos speeding in the cars, all sorts of things’.

‘I’ll put it as crazy kids, they shouldn’t be doing that kind of speed on that road,’ he added.

‘If you think of the four lives, it’s upsetting, especially with the taxi driver trying to do his weekend and making his money going back to his family.’

Police on Monday confirmed the victims of Sunday’s fatal crash as Mohammed Jibrael Mukhtar and Farhan Patel, both aged 18, and Mohammed Danyaal, aged 19.

Taxi driver, Masrob Ali, 54, who was described by his grieving family as a ‘safe’ driver, also suffered fatal injuries.

Five passengers from both vehicles remain in hospital for treatment, including a 29-year-old woman travelling in the Citroen who suffered potentially life-threatening injuries.

Detectives investigating the tragedy are now understood to be looking into the 29-second clip, which was widely shared on social media.

It shows a car believed to be a Seat Leon weaving through traffic down a darkened residential street at shockingly high speeds.

At points during the footage the car veers onto the wrong side of the road as it overtakes slower-moving vehicles.

During the senseless stunt the passenger moves the camera to show 122mph displaying on the car’s digital speedometer.

Police have repeatedly warned about a craze in which drivers post clips of themselves speeding on social media, sometimes with deadly consequences.

In 2022, pregnant former Hollyoaks star Frankie Jules-Hough died when Adil Iqbal, 22, lost control of his father’s BMW while filming himself driving at speeds of up to 123mph.

Iqbal – who had previously posted a video to Facebook after filming himself speeding in a Lamborghini in Dubai – was later jailed for 15 years over the tragedy on the M66 in Bury, Greater Manchester.

CCTV of the Bolton crash – which happened at around 12.45am on Sunday morning -appears to show the Seat containing the teenagers travelling at high speed on the wrong side of the 30mph road.

It then hits father-of-four Mr Ali’s Citroen C4 Picasso private hire vehicle head-on.

Today his daughter said he was a ‘safe’ driver and that they were being comforted by the belief that the tragedy did not appear to have been his fault.

‘He was just the kindest man,’ Humayra Ali, 29, told the Daily Mail.

‘Everyone described him as the sweetest, most gentle soul. He would always talk to you with a smile on his face.’

As locals left floral tributes at the scene of Sunday’s tragedy, some said new road safety measures were urgently needed.

A law change means the worst killer drivers can receive a life tariff but boy racers – including the one who ploughed into ex-Hollyoaks actress Frankie Jules-Hough – are getting insultingly short sentences that leave families in agony, writes PAUL BRACCHI

‘With the amount of accidents there have been over the last four or five years, we said it was only a matter of time before a tragedy like this happened,’ said one, a married father.

‘A neighbour has had cars written off and my car got hit twice so I have built a driveway at the back.’

The man added: ‘It would be good to see pressure on the police and the council to put measures on the road like speed cameras.

‘But they have said their view, based on statistics, that the situation didn’t justify any measures. It had to wait for an accident like this.’

He said he and his family heard a ‘screech and a bang’ when the tragic smash happened but praised emergency services for responding rapidly.

A grandfather of eight added: ‘I’ve lived here 25 years and the traffic problems are getting worse and worse. I’ve been complaining for the last four years.

‘Some of my friends are taxi drivers – it could have been one of them killed, or it could have been one of my family.

‘We need action to slow the traffic down.’

And a mother living across from the crash site said: ‘The problem is that it’s quite a long stretch of road which is quite wide with nothing to slow drivers down and with some, I don’t think drivers realise their speed.

‘If they don’t sort something out, I fear more lives will be lost.’

Four people died and five others were injured in the accident in Bolton just before 1am on Sunday morning

On Monday, Detective Inspector Andrew Page, of GMP’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: ‘We are still in the early stages of our investigation and work is ongoing to establish the full circumstances of this terrible incident.

‘As an investigation team we would encourage people to be mindful of sharing footage on social media given the impact this will have on all the families involved in such a tragic incident.

‘Sharing such footage could constitute a criminal offence.

‘Thanks to patrols in the area, teams were able to get to the incident location quickly to what was a particularly challenging scene for colleagues in the emergency services.

‘I want to thank first responders from our Bolton district and the Road Policing Unit, alongside colleagues from Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service and the North West Ambulance Service for their hard work since this incident.

‘The scene closed on Sunday evening, but we are still appealing for any witnesses to come forward.

‘Anyone who saw the vehicle driving before the collision, witnessed the incident itself, or has dashcam/ CCTV footage of the incident can share it with us.’

Officers appealed for anyone who witnessed the Seat before the collision, the crash itself or anyone with dashcam or CCTV of the incident to get in touch directly on 0161 856 4741, quoting log 111, or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Bolton Council has been approached for comment.

ShOCK: Eamonn Holmes splurged more than £3 million just to “enjoy incredible weekends” with his girlfriend Katie, who is 22 years younger than him! Amid accusations from Eamonn’s ex-wife, Ruth Langsford, who claims he doesn’t call their children during holidays and has practically abandoned them without care or concern, Eamonn has fired back with an “unbelievable” move that has driven his ex-wife furious and prompted her to vow to reveal everything publicly. Fans were left stunned after learning what gift the TV star gave his new girlfriend — and even more shocked by the secret Ruth exposed, sending shockwaves across the entire UK.

Eamonn Holmes‘ relationship with his girlfriend Katie Alexander is heating up as he plans to purchase a plush new pad for them in Holywood, Northern Ireland.

The TV presenter, 66, split from his former This Morning co-star Ruth Langsford, 65, in June 2024 after 27 years together and 14 of which they were married.

Eamonn quickly moved on to date relationship counsellor Katie, 44, who is 22 years his junior.

And according to new reports, Eamonn has splashed the cash on a new property for them to enjoy cosy weekends away together.

‘Eamonn loves going back to Northern Ireland visiting family and he’s been after a new place there for a while’, a source said.

‘It will be the perfect place to build a home with Katie, with no memories of anyone else. They can use it for weekend retreats.

‘This development is perfect as houses can be custom-built for wheelchair users’, The Sun reported.

Daily Mail has contacted Eamonn’s representatives for comment.

Eamonn and Ruth have largely avoided speaking about each other following their split.

Just this week, Ruth teased the exciting release of her tell-all memoir amid her divorce.

The TV presenter is preparing to share ‘the ups, the downs and the lessons that have shaped her’ in her upcoming book, Ruth Langsford Feeling Fabulous.

Ruth revealed she plans to speak about her ‘experiences’ in her new memoir, which releases February 26.

She wrote on Instagram on Friday: ‘NOT LONG NOW… Can’t believe that 2026 is the year I publish my first book! I’m very excited but also a little nervous…

‘These are stories about my life, the ups and the downs, the good and the not so good but everything that has made me the woman I am today.

‘I share the experiences that have shaped me and the lessons I’ve learned along the way. Publication day is 26th February but you can pre order a copy now (and a limited number of signed copies are available too).

Loose Women star Ruth has remained single and recently revealed she has been seeing a therapist since their marriage breakdown.

She told woman&home: ‘I started counselling when Eamonn and I separated, and I’m still having it. It is very powerful and very useful. It gives me tools to deal with things.

‘My counsellor has probably seen us on TV, but she doesn’t know either of us so doesn’t get involved and doesn’t judge. She just listens and says, ‘Have you thought about this?’ or ‘Why did you feel like that?’

‘I think I know myself very well, so it has just been calming. It makes me question how I’m feeling. When my sister died, friends suggested counselling and I said, ‘I don’t [want] just [for someone] to tell me that I’m really sad,’ and I still feel like that.

‘The end of a very long relationship takes a lot of unravelling. Counselling helps you move on from it, to not be held back.’

Ruth is also not ruling out finding love again, sharing: ‘I definitely see light in the future where I didn’t before.

‘Before, I saw darkness and was thinking, ‘Oh my God, what’s going to happen?’ but now the fear [has] gone, because what do you do? Do you crumble? Do you lay down and die? Oh no, not I. I will survive.’

Some close to Ruth say that she was fed up with caring for Eamonn following his hip operation but it later emerged that he was in a relationship with Katie – who he had met several years before.

There is no suggestion that Eamonn cheated on Ruth, who appeared as anchors on ITV’s This Morning for a decade before they were axed in 2021.

They are yet to officially divorce and are currently at war over their money, with Ruth apparently upset that they will have to sell the marital home.

Meanwhile, Eamonn says he has been ‘ruined’ by HMRC after he became embroiled in a row with them over whether he was self-employed freelancer or a ‘disguised employee’ of ITV when presenting This Morning between 2011 and 2015.

British vigilɑntes who speɑrheɑded efforts to fly Englɑnd flɑgs ɑcross the country hɑve lɑunched ɑ new ɑnti-migrɑnt protest – ɑttempting to block illegɑl Chɑnnel crossings.

Using the term “Operɑtion Stop The Boɑts”, members of the group hɑve been filming themselves 𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 smɑll boɑts before they ɑre used by migrɑnts to cross the English Chɑnnel from Frɑnce.

Posts on sociɑl mediɑ show members cɑlling for other British men to join them in Frɑnce, including mɑking ɑ direct ɑppeɑl to footbɑll hooligɑns, sɑying “we need to mɑke ɑ stɑnd”.

Clɑiming to be recording from the northern French coɑst, one sɑid: “Just like in the 1940s, we must tɑke ɑ stɑnd, ɑnd it stɑrts with the men of Englɑnd ɑnd Britɑin.”

Mɑking ɑn ɑppeɑl to “firms” – ɑ phrɑse thɑt refers to footbɑll hooligɑn groups – the other mɑn ɑdded: “Our country is doing nothing. Weɑk government, weɑker borders.

“They ɑre doing nothing, so we need to mɑke ɑ stɑnd, boys. Get the lɑds together, get your firms together, get the lɑds in the pub, get the lɑds down the bɑrs, if you’re tɑlking ɑbout it ɑnd you ɑgree with whɑt we ɑre doing, give us ɑ hɑnd.”

Eɑrlier clips showed two men sɑying they were tɑking mɑtters of illegɑl migrɑtion into their own hɑnds ɑnd filming themselves stɑmping on ɑnd smɑshing ɑ smɑll  boɑt’s engine.

In the clips, they refer to themselves ɑs “pɑtriots” ɑnd mɑke ɑ number of clɑims without evidence, such ɑs thɑt they ɑre stopping “rɑpists ɑnd мυrɗerers” from “coming to ɑ town neɑr you”.

As Emmerdale hurtles toward one of its most emotionally punishing whodunnit arcs in years, actress Zoe Henry has spoken candidly about the turmoil engulfing her character, Rhona Goskirk — and delivered a headline-grabbing remark that has set fans buzzing: “I don’t want to work with Jeff Hordley.”

Taken out of context, the comment sounds explosive. In truth, it perfectly captures the strange, bittersweet intersection of art, fear, and personal boundaries that defines both Rhona’s current storyline and Zoe Henry’s life behind the scenes.

A character pushed to breaking point

Rhona Goskirk has endured many storms since first appearing in the village in 2001, but few have come close to the psychological horror she faces now. What begins as a parental struggle to support April Windsor spirals into something far darker when April becomes trapped in the violent orbit of Ray Walters and Celia Daniels. The pair’s coercive control, drug trafficking, and links to modern slavery drag Rhona and Marlon into a nightmare where fear becomes constant and safety feels impossible.

Zoe Henry describes this period in Rhona’s life as one of “absolute, unrelenting panic.” Every sound in the night is a threat. Every knock on the door feels like the end. After being forced to witness Ray’s brutal attack on Dylan via a phone call orchestrated by Celia, the family’s sense of reality fractures. They are no longer simply worried parents — they are people living under siege.

This constant terror is what fuels Rhona’s increasingly erratic behaviour in the aftermath of Ray’s death. Viewers have watched her unravel, burdened by guilt, fear, and the creeping sense that survival may have required crossing a moral line she can never uncross.

The whodunnit that changes everything

Emmerdale’s upcoming special week rewinds to Ray Walters’ final hours, retelling the story through multiple perspectives. Each episode places a different suspect under the microscope — Laurel Thomas, Marlon Dingle, and Rhona herself — exposing motives that are both chilling and heartbreakingly human.

Ray’s murder is not framed as a puzzle built on clever twists, but as the inevitable collision of cruelty and desperation. Justice feels hollow when both Ray and Celia are already dead, and the community is left with questions that have no clean answers. Who ended Ray’s life? And was it murder — or survival?

For Rhona, the question cuts deepest. Zoe Henry admits that under these circumstances, her character is capable of almost anything. “When there’s no way out,” she explains, “and the safety of your children is on the line, you reach a point where you think: if I have to sacrifice myself to end this, then maybe I will.”

It’s a chilling admission — not of villainy, but of a mother’s desperation.

Fear as a weapon

One of the most disturbing aspects of Ray Walters as a character is his precision. He knows exactly where to strike. When he invokes Pierce — Rhona’s emotional Achilles’ heel — it destabilises her completely. The mention alone is enough to reduce her to panic, and Ray exploits that vulnerability without hesitation.

According to Zoe Henry, this psychological warfare is what truly defines the storyline. “He knew exactly what he was doing,” she says. “It wasn’t just violence. It was control.” That control lingers even after Ray’s death, shaping Rhona’s actions and feeding the paranoia that now surrounds her.

Fans wanted Cain — but didn’t get him

As the storyline unfolded, many viewers expected Cain Dingle to step in and dismantle Ray and Celia’s operation. After all, Cain’s reputation as the village’s ultimate enforcer makes him the obvious choice to confront a threat of this magnitude.

That expectation only intensified when fans remembered that Zoe Henry is married in real life to Jeff Hordley, the actor behind Cain Dingle. The prospect of Cain protecting Rhona felt narratively perfect — and personally poetic.

But it didn’t happen.

And that’s where Zoe’s now-infamous comment comes in.

“Professionally disappointed, personally thrilled”

Zoe Henry’s remark that she doesn’t want to work with Jeff Hordley was delivered with trademark honesty — and humour. She later clarified that while she would never question her husband’s talent, keeping their professional worlds separate is something she values deeply.

“Professionally disappointed, personally thrilled,” she admitted. “I don’t want to work with Jeff, and he doesn’t want to work with me.”

It’s not rejection — it’s protection. The storyline is emotionally brutal, and involving her real-life partner could blur boundaries that are essential when dealing with such dark material. At the same time, Zoe openly praises Jeff as a brilliant actor and acknowledges the double-edged nature of the situation: admiration mixed with a conscious decision to maintain distance.

For fans hoping for a Cain-led rescue, it may be frustrating. But creatively, it reinforces the isolation Rhona feels. She doesn’t get a saviour. She doesn’t get backup. She faces the darkness alone — and that makes the story far more unsettling.

Love, guilt, and consequences

Since 2021, Rhona and Marlon’s relationship has centred on building a blended family. That foundation is now cracking under the weight of trauma. Their shared silence, their fear of speaking out, and their failure to warn Laurel about Ray’s true nature create rifts that may never fully heal.

Zoe Henry acknowledges that Laurel’s forgiveness is far from guaranteed. “It’s the ultimate betrayal,” she says. “They loved her, but fear took over.” The emotional fallout between these women is just as devastating as the violence that came before.

A turning point for Rhona Goskirk

This storyline marks a defining chapter for Rhona. She is no longer just the village vet or a supportive partner. She is a woman shaped by terror, forced into impossible choices, and left to live with the consequences.

Whether she is ultimately revealed as Ray’s killer or not, one truth is already clear: Rhona will never be the same again.

And as Emmerdale’s whodunnit reaches its conclusion, viewers are left with a haunting question — not just about guilt or innocence, but about how far love can push a person before it becomes something darker.

In a village where everyone has a motive, Rhona’s may be the most terrifying of all: love, stripped of safety, driven to the edge.

Coleen Nolan has laid bare her financial concerns amid the brutal budget cuts to Loose Women.

The long-time ITV presenter, 60, has addressed the ‘sad’ changes to the daytime television programme following the cutbacks.

In June last year, the Daily Mail exclusively revealed that the ITV programme was set to axe the live audience and schedule in a desperate bid to save money as the channel’s budget cuts raged on.

Speaking on the Not My Bagg podcast, Coleen explained: ‘We’ll only be on during term time now. So all the holidays will be off.

‘On one hand, you go “quite nice time off”. But then on the other hand, you go, “I’ve still got bills to pay.”

She added: ‘It’s just a different vibe, I think it will be okay but I’m just going to miss a lot of different people behind the scenes.

‘It will still be live but there will be no audience and I don’t think they are having guests. I just feel like it will be like a podcast but on live television.’

She added: ‘But, it could have been worse. They could have said: “By the way, we’re not recommissioning it. See you later.” It’s still here, it’s still going.’

Coleen continued: ‘I love having the audience there. You know, you get all the feedback from the audience and the adrenaline from the audience. So that’s going to be really weird for us.’

However, Coleen admitted she understood the business aspect of the cost-cutting despite the sadness.

She said: ‘They’ve all got to find new jobs. So there’s a sadness. I understand that it’s a business, and sometimes in business hard decisions have to be made and nowadays it is all about budgets.

‘TV is so different now. I mean, if you think of how many channels there are, the competition… I can’t even count how many channels there are.

‘It’s a different era now to what it was 25 years ago. When I was a kid, there was three channels. That’s how old I am!

‘When I did the Cliff Richard series when I was nine, that went out on a Saturday night and there were 23million every week watching that show.’

The cuts will see Lorraine move to a 30-week schedule with episodes cut to just half an hour from 9.30am to 10am.

This Morning will continue to air for two-and-a-half hours from 10am until 12:30pm, while Good Morning Britain will be increased by 30 minutes.

Loose Women will continue in its usual slot from 12.30pm to 1.30pm, but episode numbers will be reduced to a 30-week ‘seasonal’ based schedule.

The changes took place on Monday and the new studio is located at The H Club Studio in Covent Garden, London, after previously being filmed at the Television Centre in White City.

Katie Price fans have begged her to get help after she was pictured looking ‘worryingly thin’ while reuniting with daughter Princess Andre, 18, on Wednesday after their reality show feud.

The former glamour model, 47, has sparked concern in recent months with her dramatic weight loss and has undergone some tests.

Three months ago she revealed she had been hospitalised over her ‘dramatic’ and ‘unexplained’ weight loss.

And her fans are now urging the mother-of-five to seek help, saying she is ‘worryingly thin’ and is ‘looking really poorly’.

Her followers have voiced their fears for her health, writing: ‘Katie.. you don’t know me, but I really want you to get some help. You’re looking really poorly.’

‘Someone really needs to intervene here with some mental help feel really sorry for her’.

‘Am I the only one who sees that she lost too much weight’.

‘She is worryingly thin’.

Katie and Princess appeared closer than ever as the 18-year-old documented their shopping trip on TikTok.

The pair went for a day out at Selfridges with Princess filming them walking arm-in-arm through the department store.

‘She’s so in her element guys,’ Princess said as they entered the store with Katie replying: ‘I am, I love it.’

Katie posed alongside several of the mannequins before Princess filmed her mum eating a sandwhich while sat in Cartier. ‘You’ve got to eat,’ the reality star said. ‘And it’s got to be the heart of the sandwich. That’s the best bit.’

Katie and Princess then went shoe shopping, with the mother-of-four trying on a pair of silver stilettos. Princess then filmed them in the back of a taxi with the floor full of Selfridges bags.

Her reunion with Princess, 18, comes after she was ‘banned’ from appearing in the first season of her ITV show, The Princess Diaries

She has since been said to be joining her daughter for series two, with the duo looking as close as ever as they walked arm-in-arm for their mother-daughter day out this week

She has since been said to be joining her daughter for series two, with the duo looking as close as ever as they walked arm-in-arm for their mother-daughter day out this week.

However, Katie’s son Junior, 20, has insisted that she is ‘doing great’, as he told the Daily Mail that the family, including his father Peter Andre, 52, are the ‘best’ they have ever been in an interview before Christmas.

Her reunion with Princess comes after she was ‘banned’ from appearing in the first season of her ITV show, The Princess Diaries.

Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail last month, Junior said in an update: ‘Well, to be honest, people don’t know her like we know her.

‘She is doing great, she’s so loving, and we love her so much. We can’t wait to see her over Christmas. I am literally round her house all the time.

‘People are always going to say what they want to say about both my parents, about my family, but at the end of the day they don’t live my life, do you know what I mean?

‘They don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors and to be honest, I am in the best place with my family that I’ve ever been.

‘People can say and think what they like, but they don’t actually know. They are hearing it from me that we are all great and probably the best we have ever been.’

His parent’s reached a peak earlier this year when Katie accused Pete of ‘banning’ her from filming scenes with daughter Princess for her ITV2 reality series, Junior insisted the drama has not affected his relationship with his family.

The series featured Princess’ dad Peter, step mum Emily MacDonagh and brother Junior, but Katie was missing from the line-up after previously revealing she had been prevented from taking part at the request of Princess’ management team.

They admired several outfits on the mannequins before Princess filmed Katie eating a sandwhich while sat in Cartier. ‘You’ve got to eat,’ the reality star said

‘She’s so in her element guys,’ Princess said as they entered the store with Katie replying: ‘I am, I love it’

Junior’s relationship with his sister Princess was a key part of her reality series, which also highlighted her closeness with Pete and Emily.

However, viewers will no longer see the Mysterious Girl singer on The Princess Diaries. In November, the Daily Mail revealed that Pete and Emily will not appear in series two and three, currently being filmed, following the fallout the show caused with Katie.

After Katie publicly criticised her ex-husband and his long-time manager for excluding her from the project and any of Princess’s work, Pete posted a statement on Instagram confirming that the children he shares with Katie have been in his sole custody since 2018.

A source has now explained that Katie’s involvement in the second series would not be full-time but she would still be visible to viewers.

The Daily Mail contacted ITV, Princess Andre, Peter Andre and Katie Price’s representatives for comment at the time.

Elsewhere, Katie recently called herself a ‘stick woman’ and said doctors were concerned about her low blood pressure in a recent health update on her podcast The Katie Price Show.

Katie added she was feeling the pressure from her mother Amy to go to the doctors as she told her sister Sophie: ‘All I’ve had, since everywhere has been closed, is, “Have you phoned the doctors yet? Have you phoned?”

‘I’m like, “Yes, mum. I went to the doctors today.” I screenshotted the appointment.’

Sophie asked: ‘Did you actually though? Because mum has been speaking to me about this.’

Katie replied: ‘Yes. I’m going in there to talk about blood tests, MRI, everything she wants me to have to get to the bottom of why the price is – forget stick man – stick woman.’

The mother-of-five added she had to have her blood pressure done three times because doctors thought it was so low that there must have been an error.

Katie added: ‘The reason I’m going to the doctors is because I keep losing weight and I don’t know why. So that’s that’

In October, Katie confessed she had been hospitalised for her weight loss – which she initially conceded was her aim – however later insisted was baffling doctors and left needing tests to assess the situation.

Katie told fans on her Snapchat Story she ‘doesn’t know why’ her frame is shrinking so much as she undergoes tests.

She began: ‘I’ve been up early at the doctors so she could do some bloods and because my veins are so s*** they had three attempts.

‘They could only fill two tubes up, so I’ve got to go back in two weeks. And I’ve got to have my stitches out then because they looked at my little stab wound that I did…’

Katie added: ‘The reason I’m going to the doctors is because I keep losing weight and I don’t know why. So that’s that.’

The host of Ireland’s The Late Late Show has found himself in hot water with viewers in England

Patrick Kielty has been accused of expressing “anti-English” sentiment on his late-night talk show following comments made during an interview with actress Charlene McKenna.

Ms McKenna joined fellow actresses Mischa Barton and Amybeth McNulty on the show’s famous sofa, and, inevitably, the conversation was centred on the craft of acting.

However, while a portion of the conversation was dominated by Ms McNulty’s recent stint in Netflix smash Stranger Things, the discussion widened to the current crop of Irish actors succeeding in Hollywood right now.

In particular, Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, the former of whom is currently the talk of the awards circuit thanks to her turn as William Shakespeare’s wife, Agnes, in the Golden Globe-winning film, Hamnet.

Patrick Kielty on The Late Late Show in Ireland

Keen to hear what the panel of actresses made of Ms Buckley and Mr Mescal’s performances in Hamnet, Mr Kielty turned to Ms McKenna.

“We have to talk about Jessie and the Golden Globes. I know that you also worked with Paul,” he began as Ms. McKenna quietly applauded.

“What’s it like to see so many Irish actors up there?” the talk show host asked.

“I mean, I think it’s great,” Ms McKenna began. “I mean, you couldn’t help but…”

Charlene McKenna joked with Patrick Kielty

Ms McKenna began to trip over her words before she commented: “Paul and Jessie playing two of the most quintessentially famous English people, it was kind of like, ‘Oops’.”

The actress then shot a smug look at Mr Kielty as chuckles emerged from the studio audience. Meanwhile, Ms McNulty began clicking her fingers and performing a celebratory shimmy in her seat.

“It was kind of great,” Ms McKenna added before Mr Kielty then chipped in with a laugh: “Get it off your chest. Go on.”

The estranged husband of Cat Deeley then shot a look down the camera as he quipped: “We all know what you’re saying.”

Ms McKenna regained her composure as she went on: “No, but it is — it’s so great. And I’ve always said this, I’ve said it before, but a rising tide lifts all boats.

“And I just think it’s great to see the talent that we think we’ve always had on such an international platform. It’s just great.”

Turning to Ms McNutly, Mr Kielty added: “And it’s that thing, Amybeth, that it really doesn’t matter where you’re from — anything is possible if you’ve got the talent and the dream.”

The Stranger Things star replied: “Totally agree. It genuinely doesn’t matter. I think it’s the beauty of Irish storytellers.

“We will always find a way to tell everybody our stories, no matter if it is miles away. We will get there. There’s no choice.”

Shortly after the discussion, clips of the interview soon found themselves at the centre of debate on social media.

Regarding Mr Kielty’s remarks and Ms McKenna’s response, one X user slammed the interview by saying: “The anglophobia on display here is rather childish and pathetic.”

And they weren’t alone. “Strange that they’re so pleased about a display of anti-English prejudice implicitly understood by the presenter and the audience,” a second weighed in.

Meanwhile, a third added: “It’s so frustrating what Paddy comes out with. All the anti Brit stuff. And if you disagree you must be a loyalist paramilitary or a Paisleyite tub thumper. He’s difficult to reach because he’s so absolutely certain about his views.” (sic)

“Some p**h from the left, left show,” a fourth sarcastically criticised, while a fifth echoed: “That show is unwatchable, and not funny. Almost every piece they have is, in some way, poking fun at us.”

And a sixth English viewer hit out: “Literally living rent-free in their head. Zero humour.”

However, Mr Kielty was fiercely defended by others. One fan hit back at the complaints: “I don’t hear any anglophobia.

“There are pockets of that in Ireland and there’s a bit of getting one up on the big neighbour here but I don’t hear anglophobia. But we are observing a kind of golden age for our tiny country while the UK has faffed around for the past 10-15 years.” (sic)

Brooklyn is feuding with his family

Brooklyn Beckham could reconcile with his parents, it has been suggested, amid the 26-year-old’s ongoing feud with his family.

There have been reports for close to a year now claiming that Brooklyn is no longer speaking to his parents. It has also been claimed in recent weeks that he has blocked them on social media and issued them a legal letter.

Brooklyn isn’t in contact with his parents

Brooklyn Beckham to reconcile with famous mum and dad amid feud?

In a new article for the Daily Mail, it has been suggested that Brooklyn may want to reconcile with his parents, despite being “keen to please” his wife, Nicola Peltz, who has also cut contact with the Beckhams.

“Brooklyn wants to do anything to make Nicola happy, but this is all getting out of control. I can’t imagine a world where Brooklyn wouldn’t want to see his parents again,” a source told the publication.

For now, the Beckhams have reportedly reluctantly accepted that Brooklyn doesn’t want to be in contact with them at present. It is worlds away from how close the family used to be. They were so close, in fact, that Brooklyn appeared to pay tribute to his dad, David, when he released his hot sauce brand.

Brooklyn’s hot sauce is called Cloud 23. 23 is the squad number David had on the back of his shirt at Real Madrid and LA Galaxy.

Brooklyn is ‘very keen to please’ Nicola

The source then continued.

“It is clear that Brooklyn is very keen to please Nicola, but maybe, just maybe, he will at some point want to get back in touch with his parents,” they claimed.

“Nothing would make them happier.”

ED! has contacted Brooklyn’s representatives for comment.

Brooklyn Beckham’s legal letter to mum and dad amid feud

Earlier this month, it was reported that Brooklyn had sent his parents a legal letter.

According to The Sun, Brooklyn sent his parents a “desist” letter for them to only contact him through lawyers, and not to reach out via social media.

A source explained to the outlet that the reason Brooklyn blocked his family on Instagram was that Victoria and David were liking his posts.

The source added that Brooklyn allegedly feels like his parents are “ignoring” his wishes.

“He issued them with a letter at the end of last summer, asking for any correspondence to go via lawyers only, and wanted to try and make amends privately, not publicly,” the source claimed.

“They, of course, feel utterly bemused and devastated by this latest turn of events. There is no malice from their part. Only concern. But it’s clear that if there is going to be any reconciliation, it will be away from prying eyes,” they continued.

“This was a request via lawyers, not a direct legal threat. But it is an unprecedented move which shows how bad things have become.”

The ice skating world froze in collective heartbreak this afternoon as Karen Barber, the poised former Olympian and *Dancing on Ice* coach, shattered her composure in a live Instagram stream from her Buckinghamshire home. Just 30 minutes after wrapping an emotional on-camera tribute to her partner of 14 years, Christopher Dean—celebrating their shared legacy with Jayne Torvill ahead of the duo’s farewell tour—Barber returned to the feed, her voice trembling and eyes brimming with tears. “We need your prayers,” she whispered, clutching a tissue as sobs overtook her. “Christopher… my Chris… has been diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson’s disease. This is the biggest battle of his life, and we’re going to fight it together. But right now, we need all the love you can give.”

The revelation, delivered raw and unscripted, left fans around the globe reeling. Dean, 66, the Olympic gold medalist whose elegant lifts and passionate routines with Torvill captivated millions, has been a pillar of grace and resilience for over five decades. Their iconic 1984 *Boléro* performance at the Sarajevo Winter Olympics—scoring perfect 6.0s across the board—remains etched in sporting history as a symphony of artistry and athleticism. Yet, behind the sequins and spotlights, Dean has quietly contended with tremors and fatigue that doctors now confirm as symptoms of the progressive neurological disorder. “He wanted us to share this together,” Barber continued, her voice cracking. “But time is of the essence now. We’re facing it head-on, but we can’t do it without your support.”

The livestream, which peaked at over 500,000 viewers, pivoted from joy to devastation in an instant. Earlier, Barber and Dean had joined Torvill virtually for a 45-minute chat, reminiscing about their *Torvill & Dean: Our Last Dance* tour, set to launch in April 2026 after the duo’s announced retirement from competitive skating this year. Laughter echoed as they recalled the 1994 Lillehammer bronze, the *Dancing on Ice* judging panel antics, and Dean’s cheeky mentorship of celebrities like Sam Aston, the 2025 DOI champion. “Chris is the heart of it all,” Barber had beamed, linking arms with him on camera. “Our skates may hang up soon, but the magic never will.” Fans flooded the chat with hearts and tour ticket boasts, unaware the stream would soon become a plea for prayers.

Parkinson’s disease, which affects nearly 10 million people worldwide, strikes the brain’s dopamine-producing cells, leading to tremors, stiffness, and balance issues. Early-onset cases, like Dean’s—diagnosed before age 50, though his symptoms emerged later—often progress more aggressively but respond better to treatments like levodopa therapy and deep brain stimulation. Dean’s history of physical demands may have masked early signs; he’s spoken candidly about a 2015 colon polyp scare that left him pondering mortality, describing it as an “agonising” ordeal where he questioned if he’d “live or die.” “Skating kept me fit, but the aches and pains… we always chalked them up to the ice,” Barber revealed post-diagnosis. Insiders say Dean first noticed subtle hand shakes during *Dancing on Ice* rehearsals in 2024, dismissing them as fatigue from the show’s grueling schedule. A routine check-up in July escalated to an MRI, confirming the diagnosis last week. “Even close friends were caught off guard,” a source close to the couple told *The Sun*. “Chris had mentioned minor health niggles, but nothing like this.”

Barber and Dean’s bond, forged on the *Dancing on Ice* set in 2011, has been a quiet anchor amid their high-octane lives. She, a 1983 European bronze medalist with partner Nicky Slater and two-time Olympian, traded blades for coaching after retiring, becoming DOI’s head coach and judge. Their romance sparked headlines when paparazzi snapped them kissing outside a London restaurant, confirming Barber’s separation from ex-husband Stephen Pickavance and Dean’s amicable split from American skater Jill Trenary after 16 years and two sons, Jack and Sam. “We’ve never needed a ring to know we’re forever,” Dean quipped in a 2023 interview, crediting Barber for his post-divorce stability. Together, they’ve blended families—Barber’s daughters Laura and Emma from her first marriage joining Dean’s boys for holidays in Colorado Springs, where the couple often escapes.

News of the diagnosis rippled instantly across social media, with #PrayersForChris trending worldwide within minutes. “My heart is shattered—Chris taught a generation to glide through life with elegance. Sending all the strength,” posted Torvill from Nottingham, sharing a throwback of their gold-medal embrace. DOI stars piled on: Oti Mabuse wrote, “You’ve lifted us all—now let us lift you. Prayers from South Africa to the ice.” Even non-skaters chimed in; Olympian Greg Rutherford called it “devastating,” while fans from Japan and Australia recalled Dean’s global tours. “He’s the reason I laced up at 5,” one X user shared, attaching a video of a child mimicking *Boléro*. GoFundMe pages for Parkinson’s research surged 40% in the UK by evening, per charity trackers.

Dean himself made a brief appearance post-announcement, stepping into frame with a weak smile and steadier-than-expected voice. “This isn’t goodbye to the ice—it’s just a new routine,” he said, squeezing Barber’s hand. “Karen’s my partner in this, like always. And to the fans: your love got us the gold. It’ll get us through this too.” Medical experts, speaking to BBC, emphasized hope: “Early detection means options—exercise, like skating, slows progression,” noted Dr. Sarah Jarvis of the Parkinson’s UK Foundation. Dean plans adaptive therapy, including water-based routines to maintain mobility.

As dusk fell over Buckingham, Barber ended the stream with a whispered “Thank you,” her tear-streaked face a testament to love’s unyielding grip. For a man who once danced defiance into every twirl, this diagnosis is no finale—it’s an encore. The skating community, from Sarajevo to Sheffield, stands ready with open arms and fervent prayers. In Dean’s words from a 2024 DOI finale: “The ice doesn’t break you; it reveals your strength.” Tonight, that strength shines brighter than ever.
