She quickly became emotional and broke down in tears at his sweet relationship with his little girl.

But Sacha, who lives in Birmingham, admitted she was having second thoughts about moving and leaving her family behind.

She told the camera: “Seeing Ross interact with his daughter and seeing the love between them is just so cute.

“Because of how my connection is with my dad, I can completely relate to Ross’ relationship with his daughter.

“He adores Blue and I can see how happy he is.

Despite previously discussions about her moving, Sacha admitted she was having reservations.

She went on: “I’ve got a lot more to think about now because I need to think about myself and my support network in Walsall and what I need, but I also need to consider Ross and the little life in his life.”

She then dropped the bombshell on Ross during a one-on-one chat.

Sacha told her husband: “Seeing Ross with his daughter, probably just reminded me of my relationship with my dad – I don’t want to leave home.

“My head is just fried, so I definitely need to weigh things up and think about it a little bit more.

“It might be hard being away from my family, I’m going to miss them so much, usually I always have their support and guidance…Manchester is not a certainty any more.

“Maybe I just need to be a little bit closer to my family. I’m just unsure.”

Ross explained that he was unable to move to closer to Sacha because of his commitment to his daughter.

“Don’t rush into it, take time and think about it,” he advised his wife.

Sacha said: “It’s definitely a sensitive subject speaking about where me and Ross are going to live, there is still a lot to think of and decide on.

We’re so close to the end of the experiment now and I just hope it doesn’t get in the way of our relationship.”

Ross then received some sisterly advice, with her sibling revealing that his new wife won’t move to Manchester.

His sister was shocked by the news and said: “Hearing that Sacha might not want to come to Manchester obviously makes me worried that Ross might move to Birmingham.

“I wouldn’t want that, none of his family members would want that, obviously Blue’s here, Manchester is where his daughter is.”

Many fans were baffled by Sacha rout moving to be with Ross and his family.

One wrote: “Sacha going on about how family oriented she is and doesn’t want to be the one to move yet would prefer Ross to leave his daughter???”

A second posted: “You’d think if Sacha is so close with her dad, she wouldn’t want to put another dad in a position between choosing her and his very young child.”

A third said: “Sacha doesn’t want to be a step mum.”

“Not buying a word of Sasha’s VT there. She has no intention of staying,” a fourth commented.

This person echoed: “Sacha is childish can’t fathom that Ross daughter is number one in his life.”

Another added: “Sacha don’t wanna leave her daddy but she wants Ross to leave his CHILD! Oh f*** off girl. We all see you for what you are.”

The latest instalment saw Adam ‘welcome’ his wife Polly into his Nottingham home after their arguments on the hit reality show.

Things did not start well for the pair as the barber was very protective over his home, particularly over how tidy it should remain.

She was then left on edge when he did not leave her any space to unpack her belongings.

Later, the pair welcomed Adam’s friend to his house where they continued to bicker as Polly prepared food for the trio.

The couple were then engulfed in a huge bust-up as his mate was awkwardly sitting in the middle.

Later, Polly’s friend Alfie gave her some home truths about her marriage.

As they watched the Married At First Sight UK scenes unfold, fans could not help but think that things were well and truly over for Adam and Polly.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, some claimed that he has completely checked out of the relationship.

One fan claimed: “Adam can’t even pretend to hide the fact that he hates her.”

“Adam has checked OUT of this relationship,” stated a second user.

As a third echoed: “This relationship between Adam and Polly is well and truly over. The fact he said she’s lucky that he stayed in the marriage… Yeah… He’s checked out.”

While a fourth viewer noted: “If Adam is totally honest with Polly about how he really feels, they will definitely split up.”

“Adam has already decided he doesn’t want Polly. And he’s just trying to find excuses for that now, by blaming her,” wrote a fifth user.

As a sixth added: “Adam never has and never will want a relationship with Polly. Simple.”

Married At First Sight continues at 9pm on E4.

Posting a photograph of the pair holding hands as Eunice lays in a hospital bed, Arabella praised her mum and her strength as she recovers.

“The strongest woman I know. The credit you deserve for the strength you have after a 10 hour operation is unbelievable,” Arabella wrote.

“Every day is a small progress but I have no doubt you will come out of this even strong. I love you mummy.”

Neither Arabella nor Eunice have shared online why she was in hospital, but three weeks ago Eunice shared a photo with one of her nurses from the hospital bed having moved wards.

Arabella and Eunice both bear striking similarities with each other, with Eunice previously a model just like her daughter.

Eunice had her own brush with fame back in the 70s as a hostess on TV game show Sale of the Century, hosted by Nicholas Parsons.

She later launched Fashion Live Events, and was an avid supporter of Arabella during her time in the Love Island villa.

While romance didn’t work out for Arabella from the ITV2 hit, she later tried again for Love Island All Stars in January.

While her romance with Adam Maxted ended abruptly after they returned to the UK, she’s now loved up with businessman Billy Henty.

The pair made their public debut on the red carpet of Venom: The Last Dance in London, after privately dating for several months.

An insider said: “Arabella has made no secret of wanting to find the one and it looks like Billy could be that man.

“He’s clever, handsome and has a jet setting lifestyle, which she loves.

“It was a big step putting him on her socials – she didn’t tag him but she’s happy for people to see her happy and in love.”

Dancing with Wolves actor Nathan Chasing Horse has once again been indicted by a Nevada grand jury on charges that he sexually abused Indigenous women and girls for decades.

In a new 21-count indictment unsealed on Thursday (October 31) in Virginia’s Clark County District Court, which includes Las Vegas, the 48-year-old Native American actor has once again been charged with sexual assault, lewdness and kidnapping. It also adds felony charges of producing and possessing child sexual abuse materials.

The new charges come after the Nevada Supreme Court in September ruled for the dismissal of Chasing Horse’s original indictment, though it left open the possibility for charges to be refiled. The court had originally sided with Chasing Horse, saying that prosecutors had abused the grand jury process.

Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson quickly vowed to seek another indictment.

The initial 18-count indictment charged Chasing Horse with more than a dozen felonies. He had pleaded not guilty.

His lawyer, Kristy Holston, had also argued that the case should be dismissed because, the former actor said, the sexual encounters were consensual. One of his accusers was younger than 16, the age of consent in Nevada, when the abuse began, according to the indictment.

Neither Wolfson nor Holston immediately responded to the Associated Press’s phone or emailed requests for comment.

Best known for portraying the character Smiles A Lot in the 1990 movie Dances with Wolves, Chasing Horse was born on the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota, which is home to the Sicangu Sioux, one of the seven tribes of the Lakota nation.

After starring in the Oscar-winning film, authorities have said, he propped himself up as a self-proclaimed Lakota medicine man while traveling around North America to perform healing ceremonies.

He is accused of using that position to gain the trust of vulnerable Indigenous women and girls, lead a cult and take underage wives.

Chasing Horse’s arrest last January reverberated around Indian Country and helped law enforcement in the US and Canada corroborate long-standing allegations against him, leading to more criminal charges, including on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in Montana. Tribal leaders had banished Chasing Horse in 2015 from the reservation amid allegations of human trafficking.

His arrest was the culmination of a months-long investigation that began after police received a tip in October 2022. According to a 50-page search warrant obtained by Associated Press, Chasing Horse is believed to be the leader of a cult known as The Circle.

He has remained jailed in Las Vegas since his arrest.

When the Nevada Supreme Court ordered the dismissal of Chasing Horse’s indictment, the judges said they were not weighing in on his guilt or innocence, calling the allegations against him serious. But the court said that prosecutors improperly provided the grand jury with a definition of grooming without expert testimony, and faulted them for withholding from the grand jury inconsistent statements made by one of his accusers.

Chasing Horse’s legal issues have been unfolding at the same time lawmakers and prosecutors around the US are funneling more resources into cases involving Native women, including human trafficking and murders.

SUPER/MAN: THE CHRISTOPHER REEVE STORY

IF his neck injury had been one inch to the left, Christopher Reeve would have died instantly.

One inch to the right and he would have dusted himself down and got back on his horse.

But life is full of cruel ironies. And the actor who was once Superman to the entire world sustained a neck injury in a riding accident in May 1995 that left him paralysed and unable to breath unaided.

After his devoted wife, Dana, told him in his hospital bed “You are still you . . . and I love you,” Reeve decided not to let go of life.

Best of friends

He chose to fight with every ounce of mental and physical strength he had to see his three children grow, be with Dana and bring the world a different kind of Superman.

One who shone a light on disability and relentlessly fundraised for the cause until his death in 2004.

Reeve’s three adult children — Matt and Alexandra, with long-time partner Gae Exton, and youngest Will with Dana — provide an honest, insightful and often heart-breaking narration.

Other talking heads include Glenn Close, Whoopi Goldberg and Susan Sarandon, who are all able to provide more detail of Reeve as a talented actor and performer.

He was always keen to impress his strict and pushy father, who was unimpressed when his son chose acting as a career.

While Reeve was delighted to win the role as Clark Kent and Superman, it shows him go from pure dedication in films one and two, to exhausted and slightly ashamed in films three and four.

He wanted to be taken seriously as an actor and remained the best of friends with former college roommate Robin Williams.

There is a devastating clip of Williams talking at his funeral that would defy the driest eyes not to fill with tears.

Glenn Close believes if Reeve was still alive, Williams would be too.

But it is Reeve’s children and their mums who all come across as eloquent, empathetic and deeply loving, making you warm to the family even more.

Dana tragically died of lung cancer 17 months after the death of her husband.

Their love story is as beautiful as it is tragic.

This moving film shows how Reeve’s relentless fight and determination to carry on living truly made him a Man of Steel.

ENJOY Hugh Grant relishing his turn as a terrifying toff, in this cerebral creep scare.

Grant is the seemingly harmless Mr Reed, who invites two young Mormon missionaries, Sister Paxton (Sophie Thatcher) and Sister Barnes (Chloe East) into his remote house to tell him more about their faith as a snowstorm rages.

Naive Sister Barnes is in awe of her friend’s record of landing “eight or nine” new Mormons and keen to secure her first conversion, so, after checking as per church rules that his wife is in the house, the two enter.

Our young apostles quickly realise sociopathic Mr Reed has a very different transcendental experience in mind.

Things descend into cat and mouse fare with plenty of slasher and jump frights.

But the script is best as predator and prey ramp up the dread levels by holding religious dichotomies under the microscope.

Charming, chilling Mr Reed comparing different faith doctrines to board games and Radiohead albums, while our young preachers defend their theological beliefs by quoting TikTok back is sharp, smart, and superbly scary.

BLITZ

DURING the eight-month Blitz in 1940 around 30,000 Londoners lost their lives.

Oscar-winning director Steve McQueen’s Second World War movie looks at some of the characters trapped in the capital.

His hero is George (Elliott Heffernan), a mixed-race boy who lives with his white mum, Rita, (Saoirse Ronan) and grandad (Paul Weller in his first acting role).

Rita makes the difficult decision to evacuate George, who is so furious his last words to her are “I hate you.”

Racked with guilt, he jumps from the moving train and makes his way back to London, meeting an eclectic mix of goodies and baddies on his long and dangerous journey home.

He faces racism throughout, with the message becoming pretty relentless.

After getting off to an explosive start, Blitz loses its way, weaving from shocking bomb scenes to sickly-sweet period drama with some toe curling clichés.

There’s some ropey characterisation, mostly the Dickensian thieves played by Stephen Graham and Kathy Burke.

Ronan as always is a scene stealer, but this war film doesn’t live up to its potential.

LeBron James has endorsed Kamala Harris in next week’s presidential election, saying the “choice is clear.”

The LA Lakers star and Space Jam: A New Legacy actor, 39, campaigned for Joe Biden in 2020.

In a message posted to his X/Twitter account, James wrote: “What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!”

The post also included a video featuring clips of racist remarks made by Donald Trump and comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, ending with the caption: “Hate takes us back.”

In 2020, Republican candidate Donald Trump mocked James after he campaigned for Biden. Trump said he “felt badly for LeBron” — who had just won his fourth NBA Championship — because Finals ratings were down so much.

He added: “I didn’t watch one shot. I get bored.”

The crowd then erupted into chants of “LeBron James sucks”, to which Trump responded: “What a crowd!”

James said at the time that he had no interest in a social media war with the then-president. “I don’t go back and forth with anybody. And I damn sure won’t go back and forth with that guy,” he told the New York Times.

The NBA star is the latest in a string of celebrities who’ve endorsed the Democratic presidential nominee. Most recently, Madonna and Friends alum Jennifer Aniston both revealed her picks for president, with the latter calling a vote for Harris a “vote for sanity and human decency.”

Terminator star and former Republican California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger shocked some fans when he revealed he’ll be casting his ballot for the Democratic vice president.

Meanwhile, actor Leonardo DiCaprio explained he’ll be voting for Harris because Republican nominee Donald Trump “continues to deny the facts” and “deny the science” around climate change.

Backing Harris’s record on the climate, DiCaprio added: “We need a bold step forward to save our economy, our planet and ourselves. That’s why I’m voting for Kamala Harris.

“She helped lead the most significant climate action in US history, including passing the Inflation Reduction Act. Under her leadership, we set ambitious targets for achieving net zero emissions by 2050 and building a green economy that not only creates jobs, but also helps save our planet.”

Sarah Jessica Parker, Anne Hathaway and lifestyle guru Martha Stewart have also revealed they’ll be voting for Harris on election day, November 5.

They joined Breaking Bad actor Bryan Cranston, who publicly endorsed Harris at a recent Democratic campaign rally in Phoenix, Arizona, and the likes of Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Stevie Wonder, and Bruce Springsteen.

Trump, meanwhile, can count on the support of Mel Gibson, Zachary Levi and Dennis Quaid.
