Sarah Michelle Gellar has revealed the one condition that would see her reunite on screen with husband Freddie Prinze Jr — and fans may have to wait a little longer.

The couple, who met on the set of I Know What You Did Last Summer and have been together for more than two decades, remain one of Hollywood’s most beloved love stories.

But while they’ve shared the screen before — most famously in Scooby-Doo — Gellar says timing is everything when it comes to working together again.

‘Never say never,’ she told Metro on the red carpet for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come.

However, she added: ‘Not while our children are still in the house because one of us has to be home at all times. Never say never. I’ve learned that one, but not right now.’

Gellar has spent much of the past decade stepping back from the spotlight to focus on family life.

Gellar and Prinze Jr share two children, Charlotte and Rocky, and she has long been open about prioritising being a present parent over chasing roles.

That’s part of why her recent return to acting has felt so deliberate and exciting.

After a string of defining roles around the late 90s and early 2000s — including Scream 2, Cruel Intentions, Scooby-Doo, and The Grudge — Gellar largely stepped away from major projects, cultivating a quieter life that she shares with more than four million followers on Instagram.

Her comeback began with a turn in Netflix’s Do Revenge in 2022, followed by a leading role in Paramount+’s supernatural drama Wolf Pack.

Now, she’s taking on one of her most exciting parts yet.

In Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, the sequel to the cult 2019 horror hit, Gellar plays Ursula Danforth, a villainous role that taps into the same sharp, no-nonsense energy that made her Cruel Intentions performance so iconic.

Speaking to Metro at the film’s premiere, she said embracing the darker side was a major draw: ‘So much fun. Villains get to do all the fun stuff. Like, you know, they get to twist, twirl their mustache and say the crazy shit. Like, it’s fun to be on both sides.’

The film once again leans into its chaotic, satirical ‘eat-the-rich’ themes of the original, though Gellar is happy for audiences to take from it what they will.

‘I always say it’s up to the audience, right?’ she explained. ‘If you want to go and just have a crazy ride and see this out there crazy fun movie, then go see this movie. If you want to take the messages then do that… the message is there, but only if you feel like taking it.’

The role has already sparked strong reactions, with some calling it her best in 20 years — something she doesn’t entirely dispute.

‘I mean, I loved it. I don’t disagree,’ she said. ‘Ursula was so much fun… it’s one of those things as an actor, you just get lucky.’

For now, any on-screen reunion with her husband will have to wait, but, as Gellar says, never say never.

The popular route forms part of the Fife Coastal Path and requires walkers to traverse jagged cliffs with the help of vertical chains anchored into the cliff-face and foot and handholds to reduce the risk of falls.

The 500m route comes with several dangers, including becoming trapped by the incoming tide, being struck by falling rocks, and the risk of falling.

A spokesperson for the Scottish Ambulance Service said: “We received a call at 11.41am to attend an incident at Elie Chainwalk.

“An ambulance was dispatched to the scene, and one patient was transported to the Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy.”

Using a heated airer to dry clothes is a smart way to save on bills. The best airers cost mere pennies per hour to run, and come with other benefits, too. Cleverly designed frames, multiple tiers, covers and flexible feet offer versatility for even the heaviest laundry load. In colder months, the increased drying speed helps prevent damp smells in your home, and ensures clothes can be washed and dried as needed (dehumidifiers can help speed up this process further). 

Compared with traditional tumble dryers (rather than newer, more expensive heat-pump varieties), airers often win for efficiency and garment care. “Heated airers are far more energy-efficient than a tumble dryer, which can use up to five or six times more electricity per hour,” says Stephen Day, heating engineer at iHeat. “That’s a big difference in both emissions and energy bills. Plus, you’re also reducing wear and tear on clothes, as tumble dryers can be quite harsh on fabrics over time.”

I tested a range of heated clothes airers at different prices, and answered your FAQs below.

The best heated clothes airers: At a glance

How to choose the best heated clothes airers

The type of airer best for your home depends on a few factors.

Laundry capacity: Be realistic about the size of your laundry loads. Bigger is not always better. While large families may need a large airer for regular washing, this also takes up valuable space. One or two-person households might benefit from a smaller heated airer which can be stored easily and doesn’t dominate your living area.

Energy efficiency: Appliance repair expert Ian Palmer-Smith explains that heated airers are a popular option due to their low running costs. The heated airers tested here cost between 7p and 28p per hour to run – measured via a smart plug – whereas a tumble dryer can cost you closer to 75p per hour. “Although you’d probably have to use a heater airer or drying pod for longer at a time, it would likely still cost you much less overall than a tumble dryer load,” he says. 

Storage and build quality: A heated airer needs to be sturdy enough to withstand the weight of 10 to 20kg of wet laundry, but also to fold down sufficiently to be stored away without issue. Consider the size of your storage space before you buy.

How I test heated clothes airers

Both Emily and I have experience testing mattresses, having contributed numerous reviews across our different mattress guides. It’s a difficult job for one obvious reason – they’re huge.

So, for this guide, you’ll find a mixture of products that Emily tested at home and ones I (Rebecca) tested after a week visiting dozens of showrooms across London. I tested sofa beds at the same time, if you’re in the market.

It’s important to note that the best mattress for each individual varies enormously, based on weight, height, pressure points, sleeping position and whether or not you share a bed.

Memory foam mattresses tested at home were slept on for at least a month, to get a true feel for how each one adjusted to the person sleeping on it and whether it helped regulate their temperature, and how durable it was. Edge support (being able to sleep at the edge of the mattress without rolling off) was also considered.

In the showroom, I judged the mattresses on more objective criteria: foam density and thickness, number of layers, temperature-regulating features, sustainability of materials and, of course, comfort.

All reviews are based on independent expert opinion and our hands-on testing. Visit our Who We Are page to learn more.

GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) — David Punch provided some bulletin-board material this week when he told the Columbus Dispatch that TCU would beat Ohio State “nine times out of 10” because of its athleticism.

On Thursday, Punch and the Horned Frogs backed up his bold talk.

Punch delivered a textbook entry pass to Xavier Edmonds, who converted a layup to beat the shot clock with 4.3 seconds left as No. 9 seed TCU held off a furious second-half rally by eighth-seeded Ohio State for a 66-64 victory to open the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Bruce Thornton’s half-court heave at the buzzer hit all backboard, and the Buckeyes’ standout senior leaned forward and put his hands on his knees in dismay near midcourt as TCU began its celebration.

Micah Robinson made four 3-pointers and scored 18 points to lead TCU, Edmonds scored 16 and Punch had 16 points and 13 rebounds. The Horned Frogs (23-11) will play Saturday against either No. 16 seed Siena or Duke, the No. 1 overall seed in the tournament.

“I felt like it kind of put a little more pressure on us, but at the same time, I know his words were just a little bit misconstrued and a little twisted,” Edmonds said of Punch’s comments. “That’s not 100 percent how he meant it. Still we seen it, and we felt like we had to stand on it. So we wanted to go out there and make sure we won nine out of 10 times.”

The 6-foot-7 Punch hurt the Buckeyes with his physicality in the paint, but no play was bigger than finding Edmonds for the winner.

“We got it to Punch, and he created some space,” Edmonds said. “He didn’t have a shot he wanted, so he kicked it out to me, and I had a good seal and I just went up with it. Credit to him for making a better pass.”

John Mobley Jr. scored 15 points to lead Ohio State (21-13), which was making its first March Madness appearance since 2022.

TCU built a 15-point halftime lead and appeared in control, only to miss 18 of its first 22 shots to start the second half and fall behind 55-50 with seven minutes left.

“I just thought, I’m not going home like that,” Mobley said. “I’m not going home without putting my all to it. I had a talk at halftime, I’ve just got to do better. I was a little sluggish in the first half, can’t do that.”

The Horned Frogs rallied for a 64-61 advantage on a 3 by Robinson with 56 seconds left. Thornton hit a tying 3 with 33 seconds remaining, and TCU called timeout to set up a final play in the halfcourt.

“What a character check for us down the stretch and just going and executing on every play,” TCU coach Jamie Dixon said. “It was multiple guys in a variety of ways.”

Dixon won’t let his players overrule him again

Dixon said his players convinced him to change up the defense on Ohio State’s possession, which ended with Thornton’s tying 3.

“We guarded it well,” Dixon said. “So I’ll let them get away with that one. It was a tough 3 that they hit.”

Teams entered March Madness in fine form

Both teams came into the tournament playing well. Ohio State won four straight before falling to Michigan 71-67 in the Big Ten Tournament. TCU had won six in a row before losing to Kansas 79-78 in the Big 12 tourney.

Buckeyes find motivation for next season

Mobley said the loss will drive him and his young teammates in the offseason.

“There is a motivation now of getting back here,” Mobley said. “Ohio State has a great repertoire to come here. We want to keep building that. … When the guys come in, we’re going to have that and be ready to go for the summer.”

The former world champion boxer was found dead at the age of 46 last year

A full inquest into the death of former world champion boxer Ricky Hatton will begin on Friday.

The British sporting legend was found dead at the age of 46 at his home in Hyde, Greater Manchester, on September 14 last year, leaving the world of boxing stunned as tributes poured in from across the globe. Police said at the time that there was not believed to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding the tragedy, but referred Hatton’s death to the coroner.

An inquest into the boxer’s death was then opened in October, with the hearing at South Manchester Coroners’ Court in Stockport seeing senior coroner Alison Mutch give the provisional cause of death as ‘hanging’.

The inquest was then adjourned until March 20 (Friday), with further details of his final days and the events in the lead-up to his death now set to be made public as the full inquest begins.

Inquests are opened by coroners when there is reasonable cause to suspect that a death has occurred due to anything other than natural causes. While there is no exact legal definition of a ‘natural’ cause of death, it is typically described as “death due to a disease running its full course with no other intervening factors”.It comes after Hatton’s friend and manager Paul Speak, who found the boxing legend’s body after coming to his house to take him to the airport, revealed “the truth” about what happened to him.

“The lights weren’t on, which I thought was strange,” Speak told Boxing News after news of Hatton’s death broke. “I thought he’d overslept, but it’s not unusual. People do oversleep.

“So, I went inside – I have a key – shouting, ‘Rick, Rick, wake up! I heard music coming from upstairs, so I went upstairs… I took a look at him… I had to take some time to process it.

“I was in a state of shock and confusion and loss and many more emotions,” he added. “Then I called the police and the ambulance. But I firmly believe he didn’t intend to do it. It’s for the coroner to determine, but he had it all to live for.”

Maintaining that Hatton – who had been open about his struggles with mental health in recent years – had been “in a really good place” before his sudden death, Speak continued: “He’d arranged to take his daughters to see Oasis next week.

“He was planning to go to Thailand for the WBC convention and a holiday after his fight. He’d just booked a flight to Tenerife for Christmas. I want to get the truth out, otherwise people will just speculate.”

Thousands of people lined the streets of Manchester to pay their respects to Hatton ahead of his funeral service at the city’s cathedral in October, with Wayne Rooney and Liam Gallagher among those attending.

Speaking at the service, the former champion boxer’s 13-year-old daughter Millie delivered a heartbreaking eulogy, asking him “why didn’t you reach out?”.

Addressing the packed cathedral, she said: “I can’t help but think about how you will never walk me down the aisle, how you will never meet my children and your grandchildren, how you won’t be here to see me leave school or even see me grow into an adult.

“Why did you feel that way? Why didn’t you reach out about how you felt? I genuinely hope you don’t ever think you have let me down, because I would never think that. I love and miss you unconditionally.”

While the US has concentrated much of its military effort on degrading Iran’s missile and drone capability, sinking its Navy and, in recent days, attacking targets along Iran’s long Gulf shoreline, Israel has gone to great lengths to assassinate Iran’s leaders and attack elements of state control, including paramilitary Basij units responsible for much of the violent crackdown on protests earlier this year.
