Jack replied: “Official review,” to which Foxes wrote back: “Take snacks and it’s okay if you cry half way through.”

Jack added: “Foxes good advice for being in a relationship.”

Musician Foxes posted a photo five weeks ago of BRIT Award winner Jack, 34, playing the guitar to her, while their legs were intertwined.

The Let It Go Tonight songstress captioned it: “Thank you.”

The pair looked cosy and comfortable in each other’s presence.

Jack also posted around the same time snaps of his summer and told fans he was “busy being happy”.

Pictures included him at the beach, posing in front of the mirror and in bed with his dog.

He wrote: “Sorry I’ve been quiet again, still busy being happy.”

The pair have also been exchanging love hearts in each other’s comment sections for some time now.

Jack is best known for tracks like Surprise Yourself, Worry and Weathered.

He won the Critics’ Choice Award at the BRIT Awards in 2016 and has two top ten albums.

Foxes is best known for her collab with Zedd on track Clarity.

She has also provided the vocals for a number of Rudimental songs and was in Doctor Who once singing Don’t Stop Me Now.

The Sun has reached out to reps for comment.

SIENNA Spiro fans were left confused over her ‘strange’ reaction to meeting Taylor Swift at the VMAs this weekend.

The Die On This Hill hitmaker won Best New Artist at the prestigious awards, while Taylor was awarded three gongs during the bash.

Now, a video of the pair crossing paths backstage is circulating online.

In the clip, Taylor walks past London-born Sienna and seemingly congratulates her with a smile.

Sienna appeared to thank Taylor before looking down and turning to her team and making a face.

In the comment section, some slammed the face Sienna made as disrespectful to the megastar.

“Why did she look mad???” asked one fan.

Another said: “Wait is she mocking TS? I am confused.”

“Wait is she mocking TS? I am confused.” wrote a third.

However, some defended Sienna – who was holding her high heels in her hands after taking them off – and claimed she was simply overwhelmed following the win.

“I think she was still in shock from winning,” said a user.

Another speculated: “I could tell by her body language she was embarrassed because she was holding her heels in her hands. 😭 I felt that for her. And her facial expression after.

“I can’t tell if she’s having a “how can this be real” moment or an “ew” moment /gen,” said another.

The Sun has reached out to Sienna’s representive for comment.

The awards bash saw music’s top stars in attendance, with Madonna opening the show before being joined by Sabrina Carpenter and later followed by Charli XCX.

Taylor’s three prizes included Video of the Year for The Fate Of Ophelia and meant Taylor is now the most-decorated act in VMA history with 33 gongs, overtaking Beyoncé.

BRIT Hollywood star Jodie Turner-Smith is accused of helping fund her brother’s drug use and sex parties, according to a bombshell lawsuit.

Three women have also filed a complaint against convicted felon Richard Smith – alleging sexual coercion, non consensual sexual conduct, and imprisonment.

One of them, named Jane Doe 2, alleged that Smith referred to her as his “white slave” and described himself as her “master”.

Turner-Smith is named as a defendant in the harrowing case, that is now threatening to derail her Hollywood career.

The actress, the lawsuit claims “knew of significant dangers associated with Smith and, despite that knowledge, continued to provide or make available resources that enabled [him].”

Smith used the housing and money that he received from his sister to carry out the sexual abuse, according to the claimants.

Among Turner-Smith’s gifts to her brother was an Audi that he allegedly used to transport drug packages to USPS that were then moved across state lines.

Smith also used his famous sister to make some of the women feel safe and “lower her defences” during sex parties, it was alleged.

“I used to take care of her, now she takes care of me. She pays all my bills,” he told them, as per the papers.

Turner-Smith denies all the claims made against her.

Some of the more shocking accusations were made by Jane Doe 2, who said she met Smith in 2023 at an after hours party in Los Angeles.

He allegedly pressured her to take drugs where “trays of cocaine… and firearms or other weapons were present”, the papers say. 

The pair engaged in a sexual relationship that later turned “unhealthy” and “controlling”.

Smith is accused of pressuring her to have sex with him as well as multiple other men.

Jane Doe 1 also claimed he pressured her to take drugs and engage in unwanted sexual activity with him.

At times, his own children were present during some of the illicit activities at a 1555 Vine Street residence, the papers say.

Meanwhile, Jane Doe 3 said she did not feel safe in the Hollywood home, and said Smith even pressured her to sell drugs.

He further “forced sexual activity involving himself and a roommate,” she said.

The three women allege that “they have suffered and continue to suffer emotional distress, fear, anxiety, humiliation, trauma, loss of peace of mind, and other damages as a result.”

Representing the three women, Nissan Thomas, said: “This lawsuit raises serious questions about what happened, who knew about it, and what resources continued to be provided after warning signs allegedly became impossible to ignore.

“They are asking the court to examine the conduct of each defendant based on the evidence – not on family relationships, celebrity status or speculation.”

A representative for Turner-Smith told TMZ that this is a “fictional lawsuit.”

“[It] was filed by someone who has been harassing Jodie while hiding behind the name Jane Doe,” the statement said .

“The claims are not true. This is an abuse of the legal system, allowing someone to make up facts and file meritless legal documents.”

A WOMAN from the UK was stopped at the border abroad after she was told she had overstayed in Europe – despite her not.

Paula Pugh was going on holiday to Italy but was taken back to the UK after systems showed she had overstayed her limit of 90 days in a 180-day period in the Schengen Area.

EES has been causing chaos for lots of Brits since it was first introduced earlier this year including airport delays and missed flights,

But now, it is also causing problems for passengers by incorrectly claiming they are staying too long in Europe.

Talking to The Telegraph, Paula Pugh, 60, explained how she was escorted out of Italy and taken back to the UK because of the error.

Travelling with her husband and cousin for a five-day trip to southern Italy, Paula was flagged at border control shortly after landing.

She was accused of overstaying her 90 limit in the Schengen Area despite taking just three short visits to Spain and one to France – which totted up to 22 days.

Talking to the publication Paula explained she “wasn’t allowed to go anywhere without a police presence.”

Paula was put on a flight home on the same day from another airport with Ryanair along with her family.

Her passport was given to the captain for the duration of their flight.

She added: “My husband then asked the cabin crew where I would get my passport, and we had to walk to the front of the plane.

“Somebody came onto the plane, took me off the plane, had a look, gave me my passport, and said ‘There you go.’ As though it was all over and all forgotten.

“I’m still very upset when I think about it.”

The cancelled trip and return flights home cost the family around £2,000.

Now, Paula is trying to get her record corrected.

Previously, Brits were manually stamped in and out of a country at border control. EES has replaced that with the taking of biometrics and fingerprints.

However, in some cases where EES has been turned off at airports due to faults, or delays, the exit for Brits has not been recorded and the days spent in the Schengen Area continues without them knowing.

A UK Government spokesman told The Telegraph: “While EES is an EU scheme, we recognise this is a significant change for British travellers, and advise that they read the latest Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) Travel Advice about the scheme before travelling.“

In August, the UK Foreign Office altered its advice to Brits asking them to carry evidence of when they last left the EU, to avoid being wrongly refused entry.

Brits travelling from the UK to Europe can spend 90 days out of every 180 in the EU – staying over this limit will mean both refusal of entry and a fine.

In some cases a fine can be as much as £8,550.

Advice from the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) reads: “If you believe you have been incorrectly entered into EES or your record of time spent in the Schengen area is incorrect, approach border officials when you next cross the Schengen border and request a correction.

“If you are exempt, carry documentation confirming your status. If you believe your time spent in the Schengen area has been recorded incorrectly, raise this with border officials and be prepared to provide supporting evidence if requested.”

If you want to check the days left on your record before travelling, the The European Commission has an EES online tool.

A number of passengers needed medical treatment after the accident near the Sumidero Canyon in Chiapas, south-eastern Mexico

A group of backpackers including several Brits cheated death when their Mexican tour bus was stopped by a single bollard – as it rolled towards a terrifying 1,000m drop. They paid for a tour of the Sumidero Canyon in Chiapas, south-eastern Mexico, in July and, after walking around to take in the view, boarded their tour bus at the top of a steep drop – when it started rolling backwards.

The group say they feared they were headed for the canyon and many of them started diving off the bus headfirst to save themselves. Luckily, the bus hit a bollard and came to a stop before going over the edge.

But many of the passengers have been left traumatised by the near-death ordeal, with some suffering physical injuries and needing hospital treatment. James Gamble, 30, from Portsmouth, said: “I honestly thought I was going to die. It was hands-down the most terrifying experience of my life.

“Everyone was diving off the bus headfirst, thinking we were headed for the canyon. I just imagined the bus tilting backwards with nothing I could do.

“It was horrific. I didn’t stop shaking for an hour afterwards; people who weren’t even on the bus were crying and having panic attacks.”

James says that one passenger, Madeleine Glen, had tried to grab the handbrake as the bus was rolling, but it was already up. Several passengers were hospitalised following the terrifying incident after injuring themselves fleeing the bus.

Sophie Badelt, 22, from Switzerland, hit her head on a parked car as she dove from the moving bus and was bleeding profusely. A British nurse from another tour of the canyon helped to bandage her head while they waited for an ambulance.

Brit Hugo Evans, 20, was also injured in the ordeal and bandaged at the scene by paramedics. He said: “I dove out of the van, headfirst – that was the only option. I was in a blind panic. I thought we were going to die for sure.

“I hit my head on the floor and there was a lot of blood. I thought we were headed for the cliff. Everyone was freaking out when Sophie was screaming… She was drenched in blood. It was terrifying.”

The tour left on July 9 and cost 600 Mexican Pesos (£25.66) per person. All the passengers have since been refunded, and Sophie says that she has been compensated for her medical bills after weeks of back-and-forth.

There were three Dutch passengers – Britt van Engelen, 28, Yesol Sihn 29, and Floris van Neer, 30. Also onboard was Belgian tourist Hanne, 23, and Australian pair Garrison Hamlin, 28, and Brodie Hampson, 28.

James, a former journalist, says he stayed on the bus until it came to a halt and that he has been left shaken by the ordeal. He added: “We took some photos of the canyon at the viewpoint and were told to get back on the bus. The van was parked on a hill and I was sat near the back.

“We all piled back on the bus and, as the last people were getting on, we started rolling backwards. Maddy tried the handbrake, but it was already up and panic set in within seconds.

“Then there was an almighty crash as we hit the bollard and the five of us still on darted off the bus. The first thing we saw was Sophie lying on the floor, crying desperately for help and with blood seeping out of her head.”

The tour operator was approached for comment.
