GEORGIA Harrison has revealed all on her new ITV documentary – which explores the trauma of deep fake and revenge porn.

Georgia, 30, is fronting a two-part series with ITV, called Georgia Harrison: Porn, Power, Profit, where she looks into the issue of deepfakes and image-based sexual abuse.

Georgia feels that she can relate to what the victims are feeling in the documentary[/caption]

The reality star feels the areas she explores in the documentary are relatable because she was a victim of image-based sexual abuse herself.

Her former partner Stephen Bear was convicted of sharing a private film of them having sex and was jailed for 21 months in 2023.

The former Love Island and The Only Way Is Essex star waived her right to anonymity during Bear’s trial, and has been outspoken about the distress the ordeal has caused her.

But now Georgia hopes her new documentary will shed light on the industry and the impact it can have on victims.

Speaking to The Sun’s TV Mag about her most shocking discovery on the show, Georgia replied: ” Working on Deepfakes was the most shocking for me.

“Because of everything that’s happened to me, my inbox has become a real floodgate for victims of abuse, whether that be intimate, deepfake or domestic.

“I really just have so many women reaching out, and I was seeing a lot more deepfake, especially from parents.

“These girls, they’re going to school, and there’s these pictures going around of them, and they can’t prove it’s not them.

“What are they meant to do? Take their clothes off and show their schoolmates what their naked body looks like?

“So they’re being accused of being liars, and even if they manage to prove it’s not them, it puts a smear on their childhood, and it sexualizes them without their consent from such a young age.

“And I always thought deepfake was a traumatic thing.

“I’ve had friends that have experienced it, but since really being able to sit down with victims and not only see how it affects them.

“But see how much money it’s making for these people that don’t even put their faces to these companies.

“It’s completely and utterly blown me away, and I think it’s something that’s going to catch up on people quicker than they realise.

When you meet with another victim, you can really see and feel inside of them all of the feelings I felt with revenge porn.

“Nobody is safe with their pictures online anymore, because anyone can take them and do whatever they want to them, and it doesn’t even cost a lot of money to ruin someone’s life.”

Georgia believes that because she’s gone through something similar it gives her a unique sense of empathy with the people she meets.

“I think that’s why it was so perfect for me to go down the route of doing this doc, because I have so much empathy for anyone that’s gone through something like this.

“And it’s mad when you meet with another victim, you can really see and feel inside of them all of the feelings I felt with revenge porn.

FIGHTING FOR CHANGE

“It’s just the same. They just feel so degraded. They feel like they’re a lesser person. And they’re just traumatised.

“And people aren’t just doing it to kids, they’re doing it to people’s parents, they’re doing it to teachers.

“It’s really an evil thing to be used and if it’s unconsented, which most of the time it is, it just shouldn’t be allowed.”

“And that’s why I really wanted to look into it too, because the more people talk about things, the more people understand things, the quicker we can change it, and the less victims there’ll be.

“I don’t want to live in a world where my little sister, my future children can be seen in a sexually vulnerable state, whether that’s real or fake.”

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE

But was making the documentary a painful reminder for Georgia?

“It’s always really, really hard having to share my story, and I’m aware of that, and a lot of people say it’s brave, and I appreciate that.

“I’m a big believer that everything happens for a reason, I am such a spiritual person, and I think especially now, I’m in the best place I’ve ever been in my life.

“I’m just so happy at the moment, and sharing my story is a way of helping people.

Maybe for some reason, it was my purpose in this lifetime to have to go through some hardship to actually make it a much safer space for women in the future.”

“I have so many people come up to me all the time saying they’re so grateful, because of me, they felt less ashamed, or they put someone in prison, or they stood up against someone who sexually violated them.

“Maybe for some reason, it was my purpose in this lifetime to have to go through some hardship to actually make it a much safer space for women in the future.”

The Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has announced plans to clampdown on AI-generated images of sexual abuse.

She said the UK would be the first country in the world to make it illegal to own artificial intelligence tools designed to make images of child sexual abuse.

The new offence will be punishable by up to five years in prison.

FOR many of us, remembering to pay bills and keeping up with financial admin is tricky.

But have you ever stopped to think that your health could be the reason for your money struggles?

A third of the adults diagnosed with the condition struggle with problem debt[/caption]

For someone with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder it can be almost impossible.

In fact, a third of adults with the condition struggle with problem debt.

While six in ten say it affects their ability to manage money and, according to the Monzo Bank study, adds an extra £1,600 a year to bills.

Here, Mel Hunter, investigates the effect ADHD can have on financial planning — and explains how you can get help.

LINK BETWEEN ADHD AND DEBT

ADHD affects the part of the brain that deals with planning, goal setting and focus.

People with the condition may have an imbalance of dopamine, a chemical linked to the brain’s reward system.

There is a proven link between it and money struggles, with the extra costs incurred known as the ADHD tax.

This comes in the form of impulse spending, late bill payments and extra costs caused by being disorganised — for example forgetting to cancel subscriptions or losing item, as well as medication fees and the impact of the condition on earnings.

When comparison site MoneySuperMarket spoke to 100 people with ADHD, three quarters said they struggled with impulsive spending and six in ten forgot bill dates, leading to late fees.

And according to Monzo, half of people living with the condition often buy things they don’t need or might not be able to afford, compared to 12 per cent who don’t have it.

Kara Gammell, finance expert at MoneySuperMarket, who was diagnosed 20 years ago, says: “Adults with ADHD may find managing their money to be an ongoing struggle.”

They are also three times more likely to miss bill payments.

For Kara, being diagnosed with ADHD helped her understand why she had struggled with managing her money.

“While people with ADHD are often quick thinkers and excel at urgent tasks, we can struggle with anything that we find ‘boring’, which doesn’t bode well with managing money,” she said.

“It’s hardly surprising that I spent my early twenties living pay cheque to pay cheque which led to feelings of shame and putting my head in the sand.”

Kara eventually understood that her brain was not broken — she just needed a different way to manage money.

“I use a combination of methods to manage my finances, particularly automating my savings and regularly setting aside 15 minutes to review my spending and bank accounts.”

Not everyone is aware that adults whose ADHD adversely affects their life may be able to access support through Personal Independence Payments or through the Access To Work scheme.

‘Bought things I  didn’t need, then struggled to pay’

AFTER struggling with money throughout her adult life, things came to a head for Clare Seal when she found herself facing £27,000 of debt following the birth of her second child.

The 35-year-old mother-of-three from Bath says: “I fell into the trap of buying things I thought were essential, or would solve problems in my life that we didn’t really need at all.”

Clare Seal found herself in £27,000 debt after falling into trap of buying things just to fit in[/caption]

It was four years later that she was diagnosed with ADHD, and that helped her understand why she had struggled so much.

She says: “We’re constantly being bombarded by marketing messages and told we need things. That’s hard for anyone to navigate but it’s so much harder with ADHD.

“As someone who is neurodivergent, I always spent a huge amount of money trying to fit in. I was almost obsessive in my generosity to others without caring about the cost.

“I would also lose track of when things needed to be paid and constantly felt ambushed by regular life admin and expenses.”

Clare and husband Phil, a 34-year-old operations manager, worked out the scale of the debts, which were spread over seven credit cards and an over-draft, and made a plan to get back in control.

She began by breaking down a monthly budget into clear weekly spending, while allowing herself some flexibility rather than going cold turkey.

To stick to her budget, she automated as much of her banking as possible, setting dates where bill payments left her account. The debts were cleared by spring 2021.

Clare, who has 118,000 followers on Instagram, meticulously documented her debt journey on the social media site. She is now a financial coach and author of Five Steps To Financial Wellbeing.

‘I didn’t know I had autism, thought I was failing at life’

IT was only after Sarah Douglas was diagnosed with ADHD and autism she realised the £22,000 debt she had racked up on credit cards and struggles with money were linked to her health.

The 55-year-old former healthcare assistant, from Bristol, says: “When I was younger, I didn’t have much money coming in and I wasn’t good at managing it.

Adrian Sherratt

Sarah Douglas, who was diagnosed with ADHD and autism, realised her £22,000 debt was linked to her health[/caption]

“I bought stuff to get a dopamine hit, but I can’t remember what half of it was.

“Using zero per cent credit cards felt like free money, but then I couldn’t plan ahead to pay them off when the deal finished.”

Sarah trained as a teacher but, as she struggled with her mental health, was never able to follow her chosen career, which affected her income.

As the debts mounted, she felt ashamed.

She says: “I didn’t realise I was neurodivergent, I just thought I was failing at life.”

In 2017, she approached debt charity StepChange.

“They were amazing and never judged,” she says.

Advisers helped Sarah set up a five-year debt repayment plan and she finally paid them off in November 2021.

A MAN has revealed that every day he wakes up to soaking wet windows and is desperate for a simple solution.

Eager for advice, he took to social media to ask for help, to which cleaning fans were eager to offer their handy tips and tricks.

Posting on Reddit, on the r/DIYUK thread, the anonymous man, who writes under the username @Southern_Squash2169, titled his post ‘Condensation every morning’ and explained: “Every morning my windows are covered in condensation.”

The man expressed: “Not a problem in the summer but it has started to happen again now. 

“Looking at other houses on the street and they don’t seem to have the same problem. 

“Bought a dehumidifier but I can’t run it in every room in the house. 

“I’m opening the windows each morning but it’s starting to get very cold.”

Keen to learn more, he asked: “Any tips on how to stop it?”

To this, people keenly raced to the comments, willing to give their tips and tricks on how to put a stop to condensation. 

Whilst social media users stressed the importance of ventilation and many advised the man to purchase a window vac, some cleaning fans suggested a useful buy from B&Q.

And those on a budget will be thrilled to know that it will only cost you £4.99, making it perfect for those looking to save cash where possible. 

One cleaning enthusiast shared: “‘Put extractor fans in the kitchen and bathrooms. 

“Then look online for ‘transparent window insulation film’.”

He then advised: “Dry the glass off, then attach with double sided tape over the frames, then trim to size to create an airtight, sealed floating layer above the glass. 

“You quickly run a hairdryer to shrink and tighten it like a drum. 

“It stops the warm air hitting the cold glass and works well.’”

B&Q’s £4.99 solution

AUSTRALIA’S ‘most sexually active woman’ has claimed she has been called ‘mentally ill’ by trolls for her jaw-dropping sex stunts.

But Annie Knight, who slept with 654 men last year alone, claimed that she is really smart, and it’s good business.

You may recognise the Aussie bombshell as the OnlyFans star who fled Fiji with 25-year-old Bonnie Blue, after their plans to sleep with 18-year-olds were foiled by the Fijian government.

But the 28-year-old is also known as ‘Australia’s most sexually active woman’, after sleeping with 654 men in 2024. 

Annie first joined OnlyFans back in 2020, when she filmed herself performing sex acts to earn money for a house. 

A year later, she was fired from her day job as a marketing coordinator after they discovered her explicit side hustle.

Now Annie, who is originally from Melbourne but lives on the Gold Coast, has sex with men and films it, before posting the footage online, similar to actions of the infamous Bonnie Blue. 

And keen to clap back to haters who call her ‘mentally ill’ for her sex stunts, Annie told The News Movement: “Keep it coming, because the more angry you are, the more attention I get and the more money I make. So please keep going.”

Annie got candid on having to have sex every single day for a year, as she admitted: “Last year, I took on the challenge of essentially sleeping with 600 people – it basically meant that I was having sex every single day. I think I had 654 in the end.

“So here’s the thing, if anyone’s disrespectful, I simply will not do it with them. I will stop it, it won’t be happening. 

“But if I’m not necessarily attracted to someone, it’s not that hard to push through it.”

The controversial blonde beauty also claimed: “I think people find it really hard to believe that people can genuinely just enjoy sex.

“It’s like they think that there’s something wrong with us or I just saw someone say that we’re mentally ill because we want to do these challenges or we wanna have lots of sex and that’s not the case. 

“We’re having fun, we’re living our lives the way we wanna live it and we’re enjoying it.

“We’re not crazy, we’re actually pretty intelligent people.” 

In the four years Annie has been on OnlyFans, her content has evolved from filming herself performing sex acts, to bonking men on camera.

She now sees being fired from her job as a blessing in disguise.

Although she was “quite angry” and felt they were “discriminating against” her, she is now “relieved” and “felt like the universe” was telling her to go to OnlyFans instead.

Annie Knight

Now, Annie, who will usually sleep with around five to 10 guys in a day, earns a jaw-dropping $200,000 (£99,935) a month through her saucy side hustle.

Not only will men send in applications to sleep with her, but she’ll then take her pick of the bunch.

She’s bedded school leavers – dubbed controversially by Bonnie Blue as ‘barely legal’ teens – Australian football players, reality TV stars and a “big time tennis player”.

‘It’s emotionally taxing’

Not only this, but Annie previously got candid after a clip of Lily Phillips in tears after bedding 101 men shocked the internet. 

Whilst it didn’t surprise Annie, she admitted that such actions are “exhausting”.

Annie recently told Metro: “When I watched that clip of Lily crying and everyone was saying ‘oh my god, this poor girl’.

YouTube

Annie spoke out after Lily broke down whilst filming a documentary[/caption]

“I just thought… imagine putting your body through that. 

“Yes, it’s emotionally taxing, but isn’t that like any job? Everyone has moments where they’re like ‘I don’t know if I can do this anymore’. You do get really stressed.

“She’d be exhausted, her body would be exhausted. When you’re tired, your emotions are high.”

But despite this, Annie said Lily’s challenge was “like any job”.

She continued: “It’s like any job when you’re under pressure and about to crack and you’ve got people yelling at you. Of course you’re going to cry. 

“The same goes for me when I have bad days. I have moments where I’m like, ‘I don’t want to do this today, but I have to.'”

‘How can I be a predator?’

Not only this, but like Bonnie Blue, Annie has also faced allegations for targeting young men.

Annie insisted that she is not a predator[/caption]

She now earns over £99,000 a month through OnlyFans[/caption]

To this, she argued: “How can I be a predator when I’m not preying on anyone?

“If I were preying on men, I’d be roaming the streets, finding an easy-to-manipulate man and trying to convince him to come home with me. That’s not what I’m doing.”

As well as this, the OnlyFans star stressed that the sex industry is only for those with “thick skin”.

She expressed: “You’re going to get judgement from a lot of people, whether that be online or in person. I know a lot of people have lost a lot of friends, or a lot of family members – they’ve been disowned by their parents.

“You have to be confident and self assured, no matter what anyone says about you it can’t faze you. The amount of backlash I have to deal with on a day-to-day basis is crazy. That’s the brutally honest truth of the job.”

EMOTIONAL Sam Thompson spent Valentine’s Day with his sister Louise after splitting from Zara McDermott.

Made in Chelsea star Sam, 32, marked the occasion with his 34-year-old sibling, who he lives next door to.

She captured the sentimental moment in a video shared on Instagram[/caption]

Both took to social media to share their love for one another, with Louise setting up a special surprise for her younger brother.

Louise decorated her home with candles and pages from her book hanging from the ceiling on strings, capturing the sentimental moment in a video shared on Instagram.

In the clip, she asked Sam if he had read the acknowledgements in her book – revealing that she had written a heartfelt dedication to him.

Louis said: “You’ve read a little bit of my book. Have you read the acknowledgements? I wrote a thank you to you,” catching Sam off guard.

As he began reading the passage aloud, he was visibly moved by the touching words.

He read: “My brother Sam, for visiting the hospital so regularly and for bringing your tremendous humour, for distracting me so thoroughly with chat about work and world domination.

“For knowing me better than anyone else because we share a mother and a father and a hell of a lot of DNA.

“Even though our lives have had an interesting interwoven nature over the years, sending us on separate journeys and then bringing us back together, we still share so many silly similarities. We are truly cut from the same cloth.

“Thank you for popping your head over the fence when I was camping out in the garden every day during the winter.

“Thank you for asking me how I was doing on repeat, even if I could only respond with the word ‘anxious’ 10,000 times. It must have been so scary for you to see your sister drift away.”

As Sam continued reading, he became emotional, touched by his sister’s words.

He went on: “I feel like we missed out on a fair share of precious memories together, but the good news is that we have all the time in the world to create loads more going forward.

“Boy, oh boy, will we appreciate them now. The real fun is only just beginning. Thank you for being the best fun uncle to Leo and making such a big effort lately. Nothing makes me happier.

“Thank you for taking on the role of the older sibling. I know I’ve always been the boss and controlling one, but I feel very safe and comfortable in your hands.

“I feel very grateful to be able to pass the baton for you to take the lead. The skies are the limit.”

A teary-eyed Sam admitted, “I didn’t even think I was going to cry.”

Louise, who has been open about her struggles with health issues in recent years, captioned the emotional video: “Happy Valentine’s Day. Celebrating a different kind of love this morning. A love of books. A love of acknowledging // thanking people. A love of family. A love of having awkward conversations.”

The touching moment between the siblings comes after Sam’s high-profile breakup with former Love Island star Zara.

Speaking on Love Island’s The Morning After podcast with Indiyah Polack and Amy Hart this week, Sam suggested Zara may have been responsible for the split.

He explained that Louise has always gotten on well with his girlfriends.

Sam continued: “Most of the time when we break up, it’s my fault and she’ll ask, ‘WHAT have you done?’

“And I’m like, ‘it’s not even me!’”

Although he didn’t explicitly name Zara, his comments appeared to imply that their split wasn’t his fault.

Sam and Zara have both been keeping busy since their shock break-up.

The I’m A Celebrity champ has been working on multiple TV projects including the Love Island podcast, whilst Zara has been working on a new documentary for BBC3 in Thailand.

Speaking on another recent episode of the pod, he revealed how much he’d love to do Love Island.

“I have never been in the villa, but I would LOVE TOO!” Sam revealed.

CHEATING SHOCK

The former couple first started dating in May 2019.

Just 16 months later Zara confessed to having a fling with music exec Brahim Fourad while taking part in The X Factor: Celebrity.

Zara and Brahim crossed paths when she signed up to the singing show in October 2019.

Sam then ended their 16-month relationship after getting wind of what happened, after The Sun exclusively revealed a year late she had been unfaithful.

They got back together after Zara publicly apologised on Made In Chelsea.

The pair then lived together in Sam’s house where they would often post loved up selfies, comedy reels and pictures of their home transformation.

Last month a devastated Sam broke his silence on his “tough” split with Zara.

On Sam and Pete Wicks‘s Staying Relevant podcast, Pete asked him about his “bad Christmas“.

He said: “What’s been going on?”

Sam admits: “It was tough. It’s been a tough month. A real tough month.”

He also jokes: “This is not a good time to be going bald either.”

Pete says he wasn’t sure if Sam would be in a fit enough state to do the podcast, telling him: “I didn’t know if we were gonna be here or not.”

A source lifted the lid on the reasons behind the split, telling Mail Online: “Sam and Zara have ended their relationship.

“It’s been an incredibly difficult decision for them to part ways; they still care and have a lot of love for each other.

“But after a tough year of working hard at their romance, they have split and will be focusing on their individual careers going forward into 2025.

“There has been no scandal or fallout between them, it’s just the result of a difficult year, where they both had to spend a lot of time focused on their own projects.”

CHLOE KELLY vows she has moved on from the “dark time” that led her to leaving Manchester City for a temporary Arsenal move. 

The Gunners loan star hopes the London club, where she began her senior playing career, can keep their “foot on the gas” in their chase for silverware.

Kelly and her Arsenal team-mates are due to play Tottenham at the Emirates on Sunday afternoon with a crowd of more than 50,000 expected at the match[/caption]

It was on January 30 this year, the  final day for player transfers between Women’s Super League clubs this winter, that Kelly learned Arsenal wanted to sign her. 

On that date the forward, 27,  whose team hosts Tottenham tomorrow, spent some time at a driving range with her husband Scott whom she married last August. 

Arsenal’s WSL rivals Brighton and Manchester United were also battling for her signature before the Gunners’ dramatic late bid.

Kelly, who was practicing golf on transfer deadline day, hopes to help the club emerge as big hitters in the battle for trophies in the final stretch of this term. 

Her switch to the north London giants from fourth-placed City was revealed by the club just three minutes before the 11pm deadline for WSL player moves. 

It was out of my hands of what was going to be accepted. But it was definitely exciting when Arsenal called.

Chloe Kelly

And tomorrow, 17 days on from her sealing a return to the Gunners, the forward could be set to play when the third-placed club host Tottenham at the Emirates. 

Reflecting on the moment she learned of Arsenal’s interest, Kelly said: “He (my husband) was sat playing FIFA and he said, ‘let’s go and just get out the house’ 

“So we went to the driving range and Arsenal contacted (my agent) and there were great conversations. 

“I remember calling my family straight away to tell them.

“My brother went upstairs, put his Arsenal shirt on. I felt my family were really excited for the move as well, which put a smile on my face.”

Kelly’s move has seen her join some of her England pals who play for Arsenal. 

Her fellow national team stars at the club are Lioness skipper Leah Williams, defender Lotte Wubben-Moy, forward Beth Mead and striker Alessia Russo.  

When asked if any of her Gunners and England pals had spoken to her once they heard of the Gunners’ dramatic bid, Kelly added: “They were all messaging me

“They had seen the news that I could be coming and they were like, ‘are you coming?’ 

“It was quite short one-word answers (in reply) to them like, ‘I don’t know, we’ll see’. 

“But as soon as I stepped into the changing room, I felt such warmth and the girls have been incredible.

“It was out of my hands of what was going to be accepted etc; 

“But it was definitely excited when Arsenal did call.

“That’s somewhere where I grew up playing and where I learned so much in my trade. 

“I’m really excited to give back to this club because they’ve given me an opportunity to put a smile on my face and also to play the game that we love.”

Kelly’s return to the side where she made her breakthrough at a senior level at 17, was preceded by her releasing an explosive and candid public statement. 

In it the Lioness expressed her desire to “be happy again” and described concerns of her “dreams being crushed” after struggling for game time at City this term.

The London-born forward hopes to regain a place in England’s squad ahead this year’s Euros. 

But the first five months of this term saw her opportunities to start for Gareth Taylor’s City side limited. 

So far this season, the scorer of England’s’ tournament-winning goal at the 2022 Euros has started in one WSL fixture. 

This in contrast to her 18 top-flight starts out of 21 games in the previous campaign during which the Cityzens took the title race to the wire before finishing second on goal difference. 

This Sunday, against Tottenham, Kelly could potentially be named in a first XI line-up of a top tier fixture for the first time since October 6.

Back then her last first team outing in the league was during a 2-0 Man City defeat of West Ham. 

It was a relief that I had spoken in how I needed to speak and whether my move got over the line or not. 

Chloe Kelly

On how this season has at times felt for her due to the lack of match action, Kelly said: “It’s been tough mentally. It’s been draining at times. 

“But I’m a professional and I know I hold myself to a high level, but I think as a human, it was a tough time for me and I’m ready to move forward now.

Kelly’s statement was issued with the forward entering the final months of her contract with Man City. 

Her current deal with her parent club is due to expire in June with the player becoming a free agent then.

Of her mindset at certain points this term and how she felt about issuing a public statement, Kelly added: “It was still a dark time for me because I didn’t know how my future looked.

“It was a relief that I had spoken in how I needed to speak and whether my move got over the line or not. 

“I was grateful to be able to share my words.”

Despite the acrimony that surrounded her loan move away from City, Kelly is grateful for the special moments shared with her team-mates there and the club’s supporters. 

Since joining the Cityzens in 2020 after four years at Everton, Kelly has lifted an FA Cup and Women’s League Cup. 

The 48-capped England ace said: “I’m very grateful for the memories I created at the club and the relationships I built with amazing players

“I went there for success and won a couple of trophies as well so I’m very grateful for the opportunity to represent the badge.

“Sometimes in life you can’t write the future, but you can always make sure that you’re the best person every day

“I try to be the best professional and the best person every day for my team-mates and that was really important for me as a human being but as a team-mate too.”

Kelly’s recovery from a knee ligament tear sustained in May 2021 was followed by the forward’s inclusion in Sarina Wiegman’s England squad for the Euros a year later. 

The Lionesses’ historic triumph in the tournament;s final marked an international high point. 

Her memorable close-range finish sealed a 2-1 Wembley victory over Germany in front of a record crowd of 87,192. 

Earlier this week Wiegman revealed Kelly had been dropped from the national squad ahead of their Women’s Nations League duels with Portugal and Spain this month. 

However the Lioness boss suggested the door was not closed on Kelly potentially returning to the national side. 

And with another European Championship on the horizon, and England targeting back-to-back contest wins, she intends to give Wiegman a selection headache. 

The Arsenal forward added “It’s everyone’s dream to play for England but it’s not a given so I need to work and I need to get back on the pitch and show what I’m capable of before that. 

“Sarina has been incredible throughout the process.

“I’m excited to hopefully be at my best here (Arsenal) to be able to put the shirt on that I enjoy doing so much.”

Before her Arsenal return, Kelly’s last goal in a Gunners shirt was netted in June 2017 when she scored against Bristol City. 

Sunday could see her back in WSL action for the Gunners making her second debut for the club at the Emirates in the North London derby. 

Renee Slegers’ side are eager to try and gain ground on league toppers Chelsea who have a nine-point advantage

Kelly added:  “I’m ready for the fight again and to show what I’m capable of.

“I’m really looking forward to stepping out and hearing the noise from our fans. 

“I’ve been involved in being around the squad for the last three games, the last two games at home. 

“It’s been amazing to hear the fans and they really get behind the girls.

A JET2 plane was forced to make an emergency landing after a holidaymaker died onboard.

The aircraft, flying from Tenerife to the UK, was forced to divert to the Spanish mainland on Friday evening after a passenger suffered fatal medical emergency.

The nationality of the passenger isn’t known, but he was reported to be in his 70s.

The plane, bound for Nottingham, took off from the Canary Island at 7:05pm when an emergency was declared, island newspaper Diario de Avisos reported this morning.

The crew of flight LS676 alerted air traffic control that a man on board was suffering a severe medical emergency and needed urgent attention.

The plane was forced land at Santiago-Rosalía de Castro Airport to get the man into the care of the emergency services.

Despite immediate treatment on hand, the man was sadly pronounced dead upon arrival on the runway.

The local paper reported: “A flight covering the Tenerife South-Nottingham route has been diverted on Friday afternoon to Santiago-Rosalía de Castro Airport due to the indisposition of a passenger, who has finally died.

“The flight crew reported that they had a passenger with significant medical problems on board and need to be urgently diverted to the Compostela airport (on the Spanish mainland).

“An ambulance from the Galician Health Emergency Service-061 was sent to the terminal in the Galician capital, whose medical staff confirmed the death of a man in his 70s.”

PRINCE William spoke of the  “unimaginable burdens” carried out by carers like Lindsey Burrow after his own wife’s cancer battle.

The future king was so moved by the meeting that he has written a foreword for Lindsey’s book, Take Care, in which he talks about processing “difficult and life-changing news.”

It comes after Princess Kate, 43, last month revealed she is in remission from cancer after chemotherapy treatment. 

The Prince writes:  “Despite the advanced nature of Rob’s condition, I was struck by the incredible strength, positivity and resilience of Lindsey. 

“Rob told me that Lindsey was far tougher than any of the men he had played with, or against, over the years. 

“I know that I am not alone in feeling great admiration for how she has kept going in the face of such adversity. 

Lindsey’s unwavering love for and dedication to her husband has been plain to see, both throughout his illness and following his tragic passing

Prince William

“Coming to terms with such a horrific diagnosis, delivered at a time when the family were looking forward to the next chapter of their lives following Rob’s retirement, must have been almost too much to bear. 

“Lindsey’s unwavering love for and dedication to her husband has been plain to see, both throughout his illness and following his tragic passing. “

The prince talks of his awe for Lindsey who “continued to work while raising their three young children and, crucially, supporting them to understand and process such difficult and life-changing news. 

“Those caring for family members themselves shoulder unimaginable burdens.

“Their selflessness, kindness and compassion for others dramatically reduces pressure on our services, but the work they carry out is often behind closed doors and therefore sadly under-recognised. 

“Throughout Rob’s illness, the family’s openness about their experiences will have helped countless others, not only through raising the profile of MND and the funds to fight it, but also by helping those going through similar situations to know that they are not alone.”

Known as the world’s best female chef, Anne-Sophie called her time at La Dame de Pic an “unforgettable” chapter.

Anne-Sophie, who is behind a string of Michelin-starred restaurants across the world, launched the French restaurant in Tower Bridge in 2016.

The prestigious London restaurant is located inside the Four Seasons’ Hotel.

Group Pic, who represent the chef, and the hotel group previously announced they had agreed to “conclude their partnership”.

In a statement they said: “We are incredibly proud of the two-Michelin-star dining experience we created at La Dame de Pic, delivering exceptional dining and unforgettable moments to all.

“We are incredibly proud of the two-Michelin-star dining experience we created at La Dame de Pic, delivering exceptional dining and unforgettable moments to all.”

La Dame de Pic received its first Michelin star in 2018 and a second just two years later.

The restaurant also secured four-AA-rosettes – an award which recognises excellent cuisine – in 2024.

Anne-Sophie’s food was lauded by judges who called the dishes “stunning” and “classic”.

Her restaurant was also highly praised for its “superb technical execution” and “first-class, seasonal produce”.

Her success with La Dame de Pic followed acclaim in France, where she has a three-Michelin starred restaurant called Pic.

Pic, a family restaurant based in Valence, won its stars under her grandfather Andre in 1934. These were later reinstated when her father took over.

Anne-Sophie’s closure is the latest casualty to the hospitality industry as dozens of celebrity and Michelin-starred chefs’ businesses go under.

Gordon Ramsay’s burger restaurant in Kensington shut suddenly after it was plagued by bad reviews.

The windows of Street Burger were boarded up and the eatery is set to be replaced by a rival restaurant.

Even BBC MasterChef judges haven’t been saved amid a spate of shocking closures as the hospitality industry feels extra pressure this year.

Marco Pierre White,  Simon Rimmer and Tony Rodd, to name a few, won over viewers’ hearts on screen – but when it comes to running their own restaurant chains, things haven’t always been as smooth.

One of those closures is Gordon’s protege and TV star Mark Sargeant, 51, has been forced to close down his restaurant in Kent.

The chef announced the news in an email sent to loyal customers.

As seen by Kent Online, the message read: “It is with deep regret that we announce the closure of The Restaurant MS.

“This decision, made after careful consideration, has not been easy.

“However, the challenging market conditions and an unpredictable future have compelled us to take this step.

“We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our valued customers, dedicated employees, and supportive suppliers for their unwavering support since our inception, as we could not have achieved this journey without each of you.”

Another email from bosses read: “All voucher holders will be contacted shortly.
