It’s the third week of October and both Mercury and Jupiter have stationed direct — a gentle relief, but a relief nonetheless. Jupiter’s muddy retrograde transit has gone on for about four months, making its impact less acute and its shadow period a lengthy one. Meanwhile, Mercury’s retrograde transit has certainly lived up to its reputation for chaos and confusion this Libra season and despite a shadow period that lasts two weeks, forward movement feels possible once again. But, possibility and pleasure don’t always share the same route, a feeling made all the more evident by the Sun in Libra making a square to Pluto in Capricorn on the 17th. Apparently, moving forward means reckoning with the past. Reckoning, though, is not so much about letting go as it is about making peace with all th

Parenting two young children is quite the task at the best of times, let alone when you’re a high-profile member of the British royal family. For Prince Harry, being the parent of two is "definitely a juggle," as he and wife Meghan Markle adjust to life as a family of four. However, his bedtime routine for baby Lilibet is said to be one of the smoother sailing aspects of fatherhood. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their second child, Lilibet Diana, in June this year, her name paying tribute to the Queen and Princess Diana. Harry is said to have a “real magic touch” when putting his daughter to bed and “loves reading her bedtime stories and rocking her to sleep,” a close source revealed to US Weekly. After her birth, a touching thank you message was released via the Archewell websi...
Read MoreThe shaggy guy ignores pleas and insults from his wife, who doesn’t want to be seen with him DEAR ABBY: My husband is a wonderful man. We’ve been married 31 years and have been retired for the past six. He takes care of most of the housework, and I work at a part-time job. We have no children or nearby relatives. We are pretty much all we have to depend upon. My only complaint is something that has driven me crazy for years now, and I need your advice. When a certain political candidate was elected, my good-looking husband decided to grow out his hair and beard in protest. I let it slide, but he knew how I felt about it. I figured it would last only a few years. Well, that politician has been out of office quite a while now, and my husband still looks like Tim Allen in “The Santa Clause.

Piers Morgan has exposed Jeremy Clarkson (Picture: Getty)Piers Morgan has revealed Jeremy Clarkson congratulated him in person for his new TV deal because he didn’t want a text message to be exposed in his column. It was announced last month that the no-nonsense presenter is set to join News UK’s TV channel talkTV after his explosive exit from Good Morning Britain in March, with the new show launching in early 2022. Having the last laugh, Piers revealed that Jeremy approached him at Rupert Murdoch’s 90th birthday party and exposed his in-person praise in his Daily Mail diary regardless. ‘”Ah, Morgan”, he bellowed, “I was going to text you to say well done on your brilliant new deal, but then I thought you’d just put that in your column, and I can’t be seen to be saying positive ...
Read MoreGary Neville says Harry Maguire was ‘miles off it’ in Leicester City defeat but defends Manchester United skipper
The defender had missed the last three weeks with an injury (Pictures: Instagram / Getty)Gary Neville says Harry Maguire was ‘nowhere near ready’ to play in Manchester United’s defeat to Leicester City but has defended the skipper and insists he is still a top-quality player. The Red Devils lost 4-2 at the King Power Stadium on Saturday and looked shambolic at the back with Maguire in particular struggling as he gifted possession to the home side before Youri Tielemans’ equaliser. But the centre-back had hardly trained prior to the match after three weeks on the sidelines with an injury and was rushed back into the starting XI due to the absence of Raphael Varane. United struggled at the back and shipped four goals (Picture: Getty)While Neville acknowledged that Maguire did not h

We enjoyed each time he joined us here to celebrate Elvis Week, Elvis’ Birthday and many other special occasions.’ ‘Ronnie was an amazing ambassador to Elvis’ legacy – sharing his
Read MoreHiggins and O’Sullivan have the most respectful of rivalries (Picture: Getty)Ronnie O’Sullivan was full of praise for John Higgins on Saturday night at the Northern Ireland Open and the Wizard says that the Rocket’s comments mean more to him than titles, hundred breaks of 147s. Higgins was in superb form in his 6-2 win over Yan Bingtao in the Belfast semi-final, winning six frames on the spin with a half-century in each. The Scot has booked himself a place in Sunday’s final against Mark Allen and he will be full of confidence after some incredible praise from his old rival. O’Sullivan told Eurosport: ‘John is very clinical, but as a snooker player you cannot play snooker any better than that. It was unbelievable snooker. ‘I am baffled when people say they want to play John Higg

The 32-year-old singer joins the likes of Richard Madeley and Adam Woodyatt and is said to be following in the footsteps of her husband Wayne, who finished in fifth place on the show in 2016 behind winner Scarlett Moffatt. ‘Wayne really enjoyed his time in the Australian jungle, and Frankie is looking forward to giving the show a go too,’ an insider claimed. ‘She is pretty excited. ‘She is nervous about leaving Wayne and the boys for such a long time, but she is determined to give the challenge her all and really throw herself in.’ The source added to The Sun: ‘Though with the sho...
Read MoreGary Neville explains why Manchester United will not replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with Antonio Conte
The Norwegian coach is under pressure after a run of bad form (Pictures: Getty Images)Gary Neville does not believe Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s position at Manchester United is under threat despite losing to Leicester City and has played down links with Antonio Conte. The Red Devils were beaten 4-2 at the King Power Stadium on Saturday to continue a poor run of form that saw the side lose to Young Boys in the Champions League, exit the Carabao Cup against West Ham and lose at home to Aston Villa. After spending big in the summer, Solskjaer is under pressure and some fans would like to see Conte – who has won titles with Chelsea, Inter and Juventus and is currently a free agent – take over the reins. United have picked up one point from the last nine available (Picture: Getty)But Nevil

The 27-year-old SNL regular joined forces with the actor, 40, and delivered a spoof country number which included a cover of Branchez & Big Wet’s Turn Up On the Weekend. The sketch began with the pair, dressed in country western attire, becoming financially ruined – just like the contestants on Squid Game.

Read MoreBurnley are interested in signing Ross Barkley from Chelsea (Picture: Getty)Premier League club Burnley have expressed interest in signing Ross Barkley from Chelsea in January, according to reports. England international Barkley has made 89 appearances for Chelsea since completing a £15m move from Everton in 2018. The 27-year-old featured regularly during the 2018-19 and 2019-20 campaigns – helping Maurizio Sarri’s side win the Europa League two seasons ago – but was then sent to Aston Villa on loan last term. Barkley largely flattered to deceive at Villa Park and has only made three substitute appearances for Chelsea this season under Thomas Tuchel. Given Barkley’s lack of game-time, he is expected to be available on loan in January and The Sun say Burnley are interested in br
Read MoreThe veteran MP, first elected in 1997, was stabbed to death during a constituency surgery on Friday (Picture: Rex/Getty)Footage from a decade ago shows Sir David Amess describing how his family ‘pay a big price’ for his career as an MP. The video clip is sadly resonant this week, after the veteran MP, first elected in 1983, was stabbed to death during a constituency surgery on Friday. It emerged today that he had given an interview to a sixth former for an A Level project in 2011 where he mentioned the difficulties of life in the public eye. The ‘impact on one’s private life’ is ‘very, very tough indeed’, he told Alex Bright, a student who went on to work with him as a councillor in later years. Sir David, who represented Southend West in Essex, said: ‘All I will say is, my fam

In the years before Las Vegas Raiders fans dealt with email scandals and bizarre weather delays, they at least watched All-Pro running back Marcus Allen work his magic. At least, those born before the JaMarcus Russell era enjoyed Allen. The rest of Raiders fans have only seen his highlights on Twitter. Poor them. Allen, a Heisman Trophy winner at the University of Southern California, carved through defenses and burst through goal-line holes during a legendary NFL career. Although his nephew Harrison is thriving at the high school level, the younger Allen has no interest in following in his uncle’s footsteps.

It is one of various three-storey townhouses on the road, with neighbours including the broadcaster Giles Coren and late actor Roger Lloyd Pack, who played Trigger in Only Fools And Horses, The Sun reported. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer is the local MP and lives streets away.
