Kerry Katona was rushed to hospital in an ambulance over fears she was having a stroke while watching her eldest daughter Molly in a new play in London

What should have been an enjoyable family outing descended into a nightmare for Kerry Katona after she was taken by ambulance to hospital amid concerns she was suffering a stroke.

The former Atomic Kitten star, who had travelled to London to watch her eldest daughter Molly perform in a new play, began feeling ill halfway through the show. Following the performance, she noticed she couldn’t smile normally – a key warning sign of stroke.

Kerry, accompanied by her daughter Heidi and partner Ryan Mahoney at the time, reveals: “As the day went on, I didn’t feel well. I went to the toilet and noticed my face wasn’t right. And Heidi was like, ‘Mum, what’s wrong with your face?’ I started panicking. I discreetly left, went to my hotel and asked to see a doctor. I told the staff, ‘Something’s not right.’”

With no doctor available for four hours, the mother-of-five hailed a taxi to St Thomas’ Hospital. “I got there, and they said, ‘We’re treating this as a stroke,’ so they blue-lit me in an ambulance from St Thomas’ to King’s College Hospital,” Kerry explains. “They were shining lights in my eyes while my face and speech were getting worse.

“An hour ago I was watching our Molly in a play and now I’m being treated for a stroke. What the actual f**k? It just shows how quickly things can change.” The gravity of the situation led Kerry, 45, to message all five of her children – Molly, 24, Lilly, 23, Heidi, 19, Max, 18, and 12 year old Dylan-Jorge – worried it might be her last chance to communicate with them.

“It really, really scared me,” she recalls. “I texted all my children and told them I loved them. I’ve never been so scared in my life.” Upon arrival at hospital, Kerry underwent numerous tests, including CT scans, before doctors identified what was behind the alterations to her speech and facial movements, reports the Mirror.

“It was a suspected stroke, but luckily that was ruled out after my scans. Instead the CT scans showed there’s a part of my brain that’s broken and isn’t able to send signals to my face due to stress,” she explains. “I’ve spoken to Anna Williamson from Celebs Go Dating about it since, and apparently it can also happen when you’re feeling content. It’s like delayed stress hitting you suddenly because you feel at peace. Every now and then, I’ll get a shooting pain in my head. And I’m noticing my speech – even though I think I’m saying something properly in my head, it doesn’t sound right out loud.”

While Kerry cannot identify precisely which stressor may have triggered the condition, she acknowledges feeling exhausted. “I don’t know if it’s because I’m run down from balancing family life, but I don’t have a social life. I don’t go out drinking. I don’t socialise with anybody outside of my circle, which is Paolo and my kids,” she reveals.

Armed with this knowledge, Kerry has been revisiting old home videos, attempting to spot when the changes began. Reviewing the footage, she notes she can detect her speech deteriorating gradually over time. “The doctors said it will come back. But I want to have speech therapy and get the right exercises for my face,” she says. “I’m getting a bit panicky with it.”

For Kerry, the frightening episode must have brought back painful memories of her late husband George Kay, who was admitted to hospital in 2015 while displaying similar stroke-like symptoms. The former rugby league player experienced facial paralysis and speech difficulties, mirroring Kerry’s current condition. Kerry had pleaded with her followers to pray for him at the time. It was subsequently revealed that George, who sadly passed away from a drug overdose in 2019, had been diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy, a condition causing sudden temporary weakness or paralysis of facial muscles on one side.

Attempting to distract herself from her medical concerns, Kerry travelled to Spain to mark Dylan-Jorge’s 12th birthday and soak up some sunshine with Paolo and their combined family. However, she acknowledges the trip’s timing isn’t particularly convenient.

“I genuinely feel like s**t,” she says. “Because we had to fly out to Marbella, I haven’t had any follow-up checks. But I’ll do it as soon as I get back to try to get my speech and face sorted.”

Currently, Kerry’s face remains tight on one side, though she remains optimistic that exercises and speech therapy will help restore everything to normal. This recent complication adds to a series of health challenges Kerry has encountered over the past 12 months. In 2025, she endured the devastating loss of two pregnancies with Paolo. Then in January this year, she was admitted to hospital experiencing acute abdominal pain and received a diagnosis of colitis – a long-term condition causing inflammation of the rectum and colon. She was forced to avoid her cherished spicy dishes to aid her recovery.

However, this most recent challenge could prove to be Kerry’s most difficult health struggle to date.

Both sides emerge from the tunnel and we are just moments away from kick-off at Old Trafford. Here is a reminder of how the sides line up this evening:

Manchester United: Lammens, Mazraoui, Martinez, Fernandes, Cunha, Yoro, Amad, Casemiro, Shaw, Ugarte, Sesko.
Substitutes: Bayindir, Dalot, Mount, Zirkzee, Malacia, Mbeumo, Heaven, Fletcher, Lacey.

Leeds United: Darlow, Bogle, Gudmundsson, Ampadu, Struijk, Calvert-Lewin, Aaronson, Bijol, Okafor, Tanaka, Justin.
Substitutes: Perri, Longstaff, Piroe, Nmecha, Bornauw, Byram, Gnonto, Buonanotte, Gruev.

Shortly after the blockade came into force, President Trump said on Truth Social: “Iran’s Navy is laying at the bottom of the sea, completely obliterated – 158 ships. What we have not hit are their small number of, what they call, ‘fast attack ships,’ because we did not consider them much of a threat.

He spoke to Cultured. North East’s Sam Wonfor.

“Let’s put half a dozen gigs on and see what the response is like…”

Jimmy Nail is recounting the pitch from veteran promoter Tony Denton, suggesting the 72-year-old singer and actor take his back catalogue of music and memories on tour.

“He was too polite to say, ‘to see if anybody still remembers you!’”

Cracking on for 50 dates later – including an unprecedented fifth performance just announced in The Glasshouse’s Sage One – it was Jimmy who put the brakes on.

“I had to say ‘look, I don’t want to do more than 50 – I’m a pensioner! Where would it stop.

“But I mean, going from six to 50…. It’s incredible, really.. and they’re still trying to sneak them in.”

The proposal came during a recent sell-out run at Live Theatre in Newcastle, where Jimmy revisited songs from his 1990s TV series, Crocodile Shoes, with a full band.

“I’d been chatting to Jack (McNamara, Live’s artistic director) about doing something and I said I could maybe do a few gigs to blow the cobwebs off.”

As it turned out, they couldn’t put extra dates on fast enough, resulting in 19 nights – including a run of 13 consecutive performances.

“I was on my knees at the end of that – sounded like a frog, but it went really well.”

But while the new tour was prompted by a look back at Crocodile Shoes, the resulting show, Stories and Songs, will cast the net much wider.

Kicking off on July 4 in Basingstoke, it’s Jimmy’s first national tour in 25 years.

“That sounds like I don’t like touring,” he smiles.

“And that’s not the case.

“I love it – but I tend to only go out if there’s a good reason to.

“When I started thinking about it, I thought I’m at a point in my life where I can still put on a decent show.

“I can still sing, I can still recall stories and I’ve got a career which goes back over seven decades, so I’ve got plenty to talk about.”

More than plenty if his last touring mash-up of music and memoir is anything to go by.

“I got so carried away with telling the stories that I had to instruct my drummer, Geoff Dugmore, to give me a double bass-drum kick when I was talking too much!”

This time around, it’ll be longtime collaborator Tony Davis who keeps things on track.

Despite his enthusiasm for sharing stories, Jimmy doesn’t court attention.

For someone whose stellar career has taken him from the North East music scene of the 1970s to chart-topping success, television icon status via his portrayal of Oz in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet and international film and theatre work including a pivotal role opposite Madonna’s Eva Peron in Alan Parker’s Golden Globe-winning Evita – he remains instinctively wary of the spotlight.

“I didn’t want to become famous – I didn’t want everybody in the country to recognise me.

“But once it happened, that genie, once it’s out the bottle, you can never get it back in.

“And I struggled with it.

“I still struggle with it.”

And yet, he’s heading back out in front of audiences across the country.

“I’ve always been happier on a stage than I am on a pavement,” he says simply, “but I have tried to lean into it a bit more.

“When we did the Auf Wiedersehen, Pet 40th anniversary concerts at Newcastle City Hall a few years ago, it was impossible not to be affected and moved by how much people really love that show.

“So instead of pushing against it, I’ve been trying to go with it… although I’ll never get used to selfies.”

In the North East alone, demand has been extraordinary, with multiple dates added across the region.

“It’s gratifying and it’s humbling… You never really know what’s going to happen.

“You never know if people are gonna think you’re still worth the price of a ticket.”

That uncertainty is something he learned a long time ago.

Travelling with George Harrison on the way to the Royal Albert Hall and what would become the former Beatle’s final full concert performance in 1992, Jimmy was surprised to hear him admit to nerves.

“I said to him, ‘George, you were a Beatle…’ but what he was saying was, ‘don’t ever take the public’s support for granted, because you don’t ever know if somebody’s going to put their hand in their pocket come out on a wet Tuesday’.”

Moments like that are just scratching the surface.

There are stories of how a chance meeting turned into what Jimmy still calls an “unfathomable” friendship with George, and the time Steven Spielberg offered him career advice backstage on Broadway – the kind of encounters you wouldn’t dare make up, but which have all played their part in the paths he’s taken.

Meanwhile, when it comes to the setlist, there is plenty to choose from too.

“I did sit down and make a list… and there were about 50 songs on there, so that’s no good.

“I’ll have to get it down to 20 or so.”

Alongside material from across his seven studio albums, he’s also looking back to the songs which first shaped him… starting with a still vivid memory from primary school, and a baritone-voiced teacher.

“He introduced us to the music of Owen Brannigan and he would sing to us – traditional folk songs.

“I can still see him at the front of the class singing.”

For all the global success, the through-line of Jimmy Nail’s story begins, and continues, in the North East.

He’s been back living in Newcastle for the past decade, something he clearly treasures.

And while acting has brought him fame, it’s music that remains closest to his heart.

“You know, you get in the shower and you sing in the shower, you’re happy… You don’t ever hear of anybody acting in the shower… one’s a craft and the other’s a feeling,” he says.

“How could you ever not want to do that?”

Jimmy Nail’s Stories and Songs 2026 tour will be playing the following North East dates: July 8 – Princess Alexandra Auditorium, Yarm, July 9 – Middlesbrough Town Hall; July 10 and 21 – The Witham, Barnard Castle and August 1 – Alnwick Playhouse.

The tour will also play at The Glasshouse Gateshead, from October 11-13 (including a matinee on Oct 11) and November 3.

The Manchester City star kept a close eye on Man United’s home defeat to Leeds United, prompting a reaction from him at full‑time

Erling Haaland responded to Manchester United’s defeat to Leeds United with a two‑word message on social media. Noah Okafor scored both goals for the visitors, while Lisandro Martinez was also sent off.

Casemiro pulled one back, but it wasn’t enough to change the outcome, with United suffering just their second defeat under Michael Carrick. After the match, Manchester City striker Haaland posted on Snapchat, sharing a picture of Okafor at full‑time alongside the caption: “Get in.”

The striker, who was born in Leeds, appears to be celebrating the win of the club his father Alf‑Inge once played for. The Whites earned their first league win at Old Trafford since 1981.

Okafor seemed to get a little carried away as he celebrated, swearing into the TV camera. As the camera focused on him, the Switzerland international shouted: “Let’s go! For f****’s sake, come on!”

Jordan Herring, 22, threw Bobbie Goodman, 18, from a fourth-floor window in Solihull after a cannabis-fuelled jealous rage in November 2022

A man who hurled his girlfriend from a fourth-floor tower block window in a jealous fury before telling police she had jumped has been sentenced to five years behind bars.

Despicable Jordan Herring, 22, threw Bobbie Goodman, 18, from the window of his mother’s high-rise flat in Chelmsley Wood, Solihull, West Midlands. Chilling CCTV footage captured the harrowing moment the teenager plunged almost 40ft (12.2m) to the ground from Merton House at 11.22pm on November 12, 2022.

Bobbie sustained a collapsed lung, shattered pelvis, broken ribs and a smashed spine, spending a month in intensive care and several more in a wheelchair – but remarkably pulled through.

A court heard Herring flew into a cannabis-fuelled rage after interrogating Bobbie about Snapchat messages on her phone with other men. Prosecutor Jamie Scott said that prior to the horrific fall, Herring had assaulted Bobbie on two separate occasions while also quizzing her about messages from other men on her phone.

“It appears that this offence was provoked through Herring’s cannabis consumption and his violent jealousy,” he said, reports the Mirror.

The court was told Herring had taken Bobbie to Merton House, where his mother Kerrie-Anne Grogan lived, to evade the teenager’s worried family who had been searching for her. On arrival, she was already “battered and bruised” with two black eyes and marks to her neck.

Herring forced her to hide her injuries by wearing two hoodies. She informed officers Herring held her close to the window and threatened ‘I will throw you out, I will kill you’ but she couldn’t recall what took place directly after that.

Herring was subsequently captured on CCTV “strolling” down the staircase, with his mother behind him, lifting the teenager from the grass verge where she’d landed, wrapping her in a blanket before carrying her back upstairs. It took more than an hour before emergency services were contacted and Bobbie was airlifted to hospital in a critical state where she needed a blood transfusion.

Herring had insisted his girlfriend had climbed through the window herself and fell following an argument about allegations of infidelity.

Herring, from Solihull, was previously found guilty of causing grievous bodily harm but acquitted of attempted murder at Birmingham Crown Court. He had earlier been convicted of controlling and coercive behaviour against the same victim after a separate trial.

During sentencing, Judge Simon Drew KC, described Herring as a “dangerous offender” and additionally extended his licence period by a year. He stated: “You started a relationship with the victim in February 2022. At the time she was 17 and you were 18.

“You had recently been released from a prison sentence and you were living with your grandmother and in April 2022 she moved in to live with you. From the evidence I have heard she became increasingly withdrawn from her family.

“It is clear you began to exercise increasing control over her and her life. She had become dependent on you. In October 2022 you started to check her mobile phone. There were suspicions both ways in relation to contact with others. You were repeatedly verbally and physically abusive towards her.

“It seems her family by early November had become increasingly concerned about her.”

Judge Drew stated that on the evening in question, the accused had locked the teenager inside a bedroom at the flat, and that he’d been smoking cannabis which had triggered paranoia. He continued: “You were at times arguing about cheating. She has no recollection of you throwing her out of the window.

“I have seen the CCTV footage and it is a pretty shocking piece of footage. She falls something in the order of 40ft from the fourth floor. She was fortunate to hit the grass area and not the pavement only a few feet away from where she landed. You can see her bounce.

“You made no attempt to give her first aid and you tried to cover up what had taken place. You tried to coerce her into lying about what had happened.”

In a victim impact statement, Bobbie, now 21, said: “What Herring did to me has affected me in many ways. I am extremely lucky to be alive. To be honest I have no idea how I survived what happened to me.

“I am lucky to have a loving family around me to help me with my injuries and rehabilitation. I realised I was constantly controlled. I am in constant pain with my back and pelvis. He made me feel worthless and empty and had total control of my life. I woke up in hospital not knowing what had happened. I have always been afraid of heights.”

Nicholas Berry, defending, said: “He had a significantly difficult childhood. He was exposed to considerable parental trauma, drugs and alcohol. He has struggled with anger, paranoid thoughts and drug use and an inability to process his emotions.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Ethics Committee has begun an investigation into whether Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., engaged in sexual misconduct toward an employee working under his supervision, the panel announced Monday.

The announcement comes one day after Swalwell suspended his campaign for California governor after the emergence of allegations that he continues to deny.

Democrats quickly abandoned support for Swalwell after allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman twice, including when she worked for him. The reports published in the San Francisco Chronicle and later by CNN came as Swalwell began to emerge as a leading contender in the crowded race.

“I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s,” Swalwell said in a social media post.

The Ethics Committee said the mere fact that it is investigating these allegations, and publicly disclosing its review, does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred.

A growing number of lawmakers, from both political parties, have called on Swalwell to resign from Congress. Conversations have even moved toward a potential House vote to expel the congressman, but no floor action has been scheduled.

The Ethics panel’s decision to launch its own probe could potentially stall, for now, any other immediate action in Congress.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said over the weekend that she would be filing a motion to expel Swalwell from Congress, but that could prompt Democrats to force similar votes against Republicans.

The most likely target would be Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas, who acknowledged an affair with a former staff member who later died by suicide.

Many Democrats sought to distance themselves from Swalwell after the San Francisco Chronicle reported Friday that a woman said Swalwell sexually assaulted her in 2019 and 2024. The newspaper reviewed text messages about the alleged 2024 assault and spoke to people whom she had told about it. She told the newspaper she did not go to police because she was afraid she would not be believed.

The woman worked for Swalwell in 2019 when the first alleged assault occurred, and the 2024 assault allegedly occurred after a charity gala, the newspaper reported. She said in both cases she was too intoxicated to consent to sex.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., said she believes both Gonzales and Swalwell should resign from Congress.

“I think that this is very important that we believe women, and that we show people across the Capitol and across the country that we will not accept this kind of behavior,” Jayapal said on NBC’s “Meet The Press.”

On the same show, Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., said he would vote to expel Swalwell and Gonzales if such a vote were presented on the House floor.

“These things are just completely unacceptable. And as far as I’m concerned, both gentlemen need to go home,” Donalds said.

The Red Lion, a popular pub in Over Hulton, has had to turn away people after a burst pipe on a nearby road led to no water or low water pressure in the area.

The issue appears to have been caused by a burst pipe on Lansdowne Road, between Over Hulton and Atherton.

The Red Lion confirmed to The Bolton News it has had to close its doors due to the lack of water pressure, which left some Over Hulton residents concerned.

A United Utilities spokesperson said: “We’re sorry if you’re experiencing no water or low pressure. A burst has been reported to us on Lansdowne Road and we can confirm this is the cause of the problem.”

An update posted to the United Utilities website at 10:35am added: “We’re pleased to confirm that repairs to the burst on Lansdowne Road are now underway, and our team is working as quickly as possible to get things back to normal.

“Most customers now have supply, however a small number of homes may still be experiencing no water.

“For those customers we’ve restored, you may still notice some fluctuations in your water pressure until the repair is complete.

“If your tap water looks discoloured, don’t worry – this can happen when natural sediments in the pipes are disturbed.

“You can find helpful advice on our discoloured water page.

“Restoring your water supply as quickly as possible is our top priority. Thank you for your patience and understanding, we really appreciate it.”

John Bullen of the Over Hulton Community Group added: “A few people further down Lansdowne Road have water again, but some still don’t.

“Someone got in touch to tell me about the Red Lion – everyone is a little hypersensitive about it at the moment because we all love the staff!

“But they had to shut today because they couldn’t flush their toilets or use their taps or anything.

“A few other businesses in the area have had to shut as well.”

The Red Lion has been earmarked for closure prompting a huge outpouring of support in a bid to keep the historic establishment open.

A United Utilities spokesperson said: “Our teams are currently responding to a burst on Lansdowne Road near Atherton.

“As a result of this, some customers may be experiencing no water, or low water pressure.

“We’re working as quickly as we can to get things back to normal and we apologise to affected customers and thank them for their patience.”

A screening opinion application has been submitted

A developer is hoping to build up to 170 homes in a Cambridgeshire village. Carter Jonas has been instructed by developer, Redrow Homes South Midlands to submit a full planning application for the development of land south of High Street in the village of Hauxton.

Hauxton is a small village located around five miles from Cambridge. A formal planning application has not yet been submitted but full planning permission will be sought for the development for up to 170 homes, access, open space and associated infrastructure. A screening opinion request has been submitted to South Cambridgeshire District Council to see whether an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is required for the proposed development.

The new homes are proposed to be built across a 12.44 hectare site which is currently an agricultural field. Large parts of the site are proposed to remain as open space. New homes would be provided in development parcels in the central and western parts of the site while the eastern section would be left as public open space.

The site is close to existing homes, allotments and Hauxton Primary School and according to a screening letter, pedestrian and cycle access would be from High Street, with a potential link to Jopling Way currently being explored.

The screening letter states: “The views experienced across the Site have a rural character and open quality. However, the features of the views are typically unremarkable and are influenced by transport infrastructure, the settlement edge and electricity cables.

“The quantum of development is still to be determined but for the purpose of this screening opinion the redevelopment will not exceed an upper parameter of 170 new homes.”

Once a planning application has been formally submitted, the district council will consider the plans and decide whether the development can go ahead.

The actress has opened up about Lisa and Carla’s big day, which will take place in the ITV soap next week

Coronation Street star Vicky Myers has shared the importance of her character’s ‘truly beautiful’ wedding day, which is set to be the first between two women in the long-running show.

Lisa Swain, who Vicky has played since 2021, but was only made a regular more recently in 2024, will tie the knot with Carla Connor in upcoming moving scenes for the ITV soap, months after their romance was almost derailed by the dramatic return of Lisa’s ex-wife.

As fans know, Becky Swain, returned from the dead and quite quickly put a spanner in the works for the newly engaged couple, who had also not long moved into their first home together, No.6 Coronation Street, in September last year.

But fast forward to their reunion, after Becky was sentenced to 12 years behind bars, and Carla was seen surprising Lisa in February by booking their wedding date – April 23rd to be exact – at the Chariot Square Hotel.

And while we can confirm that they will finally say ‘I do’, it won’t quite be plain sailing for the two women, and not just because their ‘beautiful’ wedding day will end with a shock for poor Betsy Swain as Lisa’s daughter discovers one of her neighbours dead on the cobbles.

However, their moment tying the knot will mark history, as Lisa and Carla will become the first women to successfully marry after a number of other failed attempts over the years from the likes of Sophie Webster and Sian Powers, and the tragic Rana Habeeb and Kate Connor.

Speaking about the importance of Lisa and Carla’s wedding taking place during Lesbian Visibility Week (LVW), which this year runs from Monday, April 20, to Sunday, April 26, with the main day of recognition on April 26, Vicky said: “Soaps are extremely powerful mediums, and this wedding is a significant event to celebrate.

“The power of this storyline, centering on two women falling in love, despite surrounding circumstances, and becoming each other’s safe space, can spark essential conversations.

“It’s particularly impactful that this happens during Lesbian Visibility Week. This relationship promotes understanding and change, especially considering the persistent issue of homophobia and the current gradual retraction of rights despite past progress.”

She added: “To champion this couple, their family unit, and their commitment by having them marry on Coronation Street is an honor and a truly beautiful, history-making moment. Their sexuality doesn’t define them, but they are proud of who they are. They offer crucial visibility by confidently showing public affection, their life is not kept behind closed doors. Their frequent presence on screen holds the power to prompt lasting change.”

And while Lisa has, as we know, been married before, Vicky explained how the DS went into her and Carla’s big day looking for something different. “I think it’s the age that she is, the job that she does, the life that she’s had, and including when her dead ex-wife came back,” she said.

“All of that means she wants it done. But it’s not just a case of wanting it done, she wants to be married to this woman who she’s fallen madly in love with, who feels like home to her. The complete antithesis of the relationship she’d had before. It’s not just about the wedding day, it’s about the marriage itself, and she can’t wait to start that.”
