The 44-year-old is set to appear onstage at the Tramlines Festival in Sheffield – his home town – and has assured fans it will still go ahead.

He said: “This weekends gigs @togetheragainfest and @tramlines will go ahead even if I have to dose myself up . Hopefully it’s just a knock.

“Might need a cuddle though. Proper shook me up. Feeling a bit blue.”

One fan penned: “Take it gentle Rev, you will still have the crowds bouncing.”

Another fan added: “Ouch! Get well soon bud – if you are going to take a fall being daft on a scooter feels like the way to do it though! You know you are the heart beat of Tramlines – come what may you and the gang will smash it this weekend.”

Jon, nicknamed “The Reverend,” and his band shot to fame in 2007 after releasing their debut album The State of Things.

They then landed a UK top 10 single with Heavyweight Champion of The World, which peak at number eight.

In 2009, the band were invited to support Oasis on their final major stadium tour before they split.

EMINEM’S ex-wife Kim Mathers has been rushed to hospital after months of personal troubles.

The 51-year-old was pictured strapped to a gurney as paramedics wheeled her out of her home in Chesterfield, Michigan, per TMZ.

The 911 call came in around 8 pm on Tuesday for a person who was unconscious or fainting, according to a Chesterfield Fire/EMS report.

It lists the incident as “Hemorrhage/Laceration,” and says emergency workers responded along with the Chesterfield Police Department.

No further details have been released since the incident.

Eminem’s ex Kim Mathers arrested AGAIN on suspicion of DUI

The health scare comes after two warrants were issued for her arrest last month.

She was due in court for three hearings across two separate drunken driving cases — including a sentencing and bond violation hearing over a February hit-and-run crash, and a probable cause conference for a May OWI (operating while under the influence) arrest.

However, she failed to appear or contact the court, leading to the warrants being issued. The issue was later resolved.

Kim crashed her white Range Rover into a parked Dodge Ram pickup truck on February 16 near her home.

The impact was so severe it launched the truck 50 feet from where it was parked.

Officers who found her noted her slurred speech, glossy eyes, and a strong smell of alcohol.

Police also found empty and open alcohol containers in her vehicle.

In May, she pleaded no contest to operating while impaired and failure to stop after a collision.

Just two days later, Kim was arrested again after crashing into another parked car in Chesterfield Township.

Police body camera footage published by TMZ showed her slurring her speech heavily.

After claiming an oncoming vehicle’s high beams blinded her, she underwent field sobriety tests and blew a 0.20 per cent BAC on a breathalyzer — nearly three times the legal limit.

Kim’s recent hospital run also comes after her famous ex made a rare appearance on stage this week during one of Jay-Z’s concerts in New York.

The former couple, who are said to be on good terms after a messy past, have a daughter, Hailie Jade, 30, along with an adopted daughter, Alaina, 33.

Alaina’s mother, Dawn, is also Kim’s sister, who died of a drug overdose in 2016.

Kim is mom to Stevie Laine, 24, whose biological dad died, and was also raised by the rapper, 53.

The rapper’s ex also has a teenage son, Parker, from a more recent relationship but she is believed to be single.

Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, first married Kim in 1999, but the couple divorced just two years later.

The pair later reconciled and walked down the aisle for a second time in 2006, but their marriage once again ended in divorce.

Kim has spoken publicly about her struggles with substance abuse over the years and was believed to have maintained her sobriety following a stint in rehab in 2023.

Her turbulent relationship with Eminem, which was frequently referenced in his music — including graphic lyrics about their relationship — contributed to some of her darkest moments.

She has also battled depression and addiction throughout her adult life.

In more recent years, the former couple have appeared to be on better terms and have become grandparents, although they are not believed to have a close or regular relationship.

CAROL Vorderman has revealed that she was recently rushed to hospital after a horror fall.

The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and Countdown legend was left unconscious after she tripped over a tree root.

Carol, 65, was then rushed to hospital in an ambulance before being discharged and then rushed straight back to A&E.

She also revealed the condition she was left battling for weeks after the fall.

Taking to Instagram to share a video about her ordeal, Carol said: “I’ve got a bit of a story to tell you about my concussion, which might also explain why I was a bit offline in June.”

She then explained: “So right at the very end of May, I was walking just outside my house on a public footpath, and I tripped over a tree root, which I didn’t see.

“And I went smash here on the tarmac path, and I was unconscious.

“I can’t remember what happened then, but I do know that an ambulance came, and I was taken to the BRI, Bristol Royal Infirmary.

“By the way, I also know that they were playing the final countdown in the ambulance on the way. It’s another story, but it did make me laugh.”

Carol then went into detail further, noting how she was: “Discharged next day, massive vomiting, all the bad signs.

“Straight back into hospital, they were wonderful. The A&E did all the CT scans and everything.

“Out again. I had the biggest black eye or bruises all down my face for three or four weeks.

“But what it did leave me with after about two or three weeks was dizziness. So I felt as though I was kind of walking on a moving ship, like sort of knocking into the wall a little bit.”

She explained how when she was in bed, it felt like the room was spinning.

But Carol swiftly revealed how this was soon remedied thanks to the “Epley technique” and a lady called Sophie who introduced her to it.

Carol urged: “I am not a doctor. I am not advising people about this, but I’m just telling you what’s happened to me.”

She then explained how it is BBPV adding how “it’s all about the inner ear and this little sort of sack of crystals that gets dislodged, and she puts it back together again”.

After three sessions with physio Sophie doing the Epley technique, Carol says she has been discharged from the service and “couldn’t be happier”.

Fans rushed to the comments to support Carol, with many sending their love.

One person said: “Hope you’re doing well now.”

While another said: “Oh blimey! Glad you’re ok.”

EASTENDERS legend Natalie Cassidy has revealed her young daughter had to be rushed to hospital after smashing her arm in a terrifying accident.

The actress, 43, said she felt like she had a “nervous breakdown” when she was told Joanie, nine, had slipped over at school — just weeks after having metal plates surgically removed from the same arm following a previous injury.

“Joanie’s broken her arm again. Same arm — smashed to pieces. General anaesthetic, same operation,” she said today.

Natalie shares Joanie with her fiancé Marc Humphreys, a cameraman she met on the set of EastEnders in 2014. She is also mum to Eliza, 15, from her previous relationship with Adam Cottrell.

The actress, who left the BBC One soap last year after playing Sonia Fowler on and off since 1993, said the accident happened just as the family were settling in for what they had hoped would be a relaxing few days at home in Hertfordshire.

“I’d done a little bit of work in the morning at home,” she explained. “[Marc] went outside, put the paddling pool up, cut all the grass — thinking we’re going to have a few days, like a mini holiday, at home.

NAT’S NIGHTMARE

“And then the phone rang. She slipped over in the hall, before doing PE. I’m speechless. It’s so traumatic.”

Speaking on her podcast, Life With Nat, which she hosts with Marc, Natalie said this was not the first time Joanie had been through surgery on her left arm.

“A few years ago she broke her arm, and it was a clean break,” she said.

“She then broke it again, they put all the metal work in. And then eight weeks ago, she went under general anaesthetic, had it all out – and has done it again.”

She added: “I felt I was going to have a nervous breakdown, actually. I’m being really honest here. I really fell to pieces. I was not in a good place. Just her little body – and the medication and the trauma of it all.”

The repeated injuries have led the family to ask whether something more might be behind them. 

Natalie said they believed “some sort of deficiency” was causing Joanie’s frequent fractures.

She said: “But she’s had full blood tests, and everything is in range. It’s absolutely perfect. The consultant actually said, ‘I do think it’s just really bad luck.’”

Their latest NHS hospital stay took place during last week’s record-breaking heatwave, when the Met Office issued a rare red extreme heat warning and temperatures climbed close to 40C across parts of England.

“The hospital was quite warm for the few days we were in there,” Natalie admitted. “The staff… they’re not moaning, they’re laughing, they’re joking. Just wonderful, wonderful people. We were so well looked after again. It’s like a little trip, now. It’s like being in a hotel!”

The injury also means the family now face a string of complications around their upcoming holiday. Natalie said Joanie will need a waterproof cover to swim, and that she will have to arrange medical clearance for her to fly with a cast on.

Their trips to hospital have become so frequent that staff now recognise Joanie.

Marc said: “The anaesthetist actually knew her.” Natalie added: “I went down to the theatre. I said, ‘hello, Barbara.’ I mean, who, in their right mind, knows the people in the hospital?”

FORMER The X Factor singer Katie Waissel has been dashed back to hospital with a suspected blood clot on her lung — less than two days after being discharged.

The 2010 reality TV star was readmitted to hospital just 36 hours after being allowed to go home.

Singer Katie is currently fighting a severe case of bacterial pneumonia and doctors now suspect a blood clot on her lung.

The 40-year-old was taken to London’s private Wellington Hospital for urgent scans and tests.

Taking to X, Katie told her followers: “After a day and a half at home, I’m now BACK at the hospital and not doing so great.”

She added in a later update: “Whilst still battling this awful bacterial pneumonia, there’s now a suspected blood clot on my lung, so I’m back in for more scans, tests and needles.

ABUSE SHOCK

“I’m fairly certain I’ve run out of veins for people to poke at this point.”

The mum-of-one praised the medical team at the facility for their ‘incredible’ support.

She stated that her absolute priority is to ‘get better and get home to my little boy’.

Katie shares her seven-year-old son, Hudson, with her former partner, personal trainer Andy Speer, who was born in 2018.

This latest setback follows her emergency admission last week to St John and St Elizabeth’s Hospital in London.

Reflecting on the initial scare, the songwriter admitted she was ‘far closer to the edge than I realised’.

She called the illness ‘one of the most frightening and excruciatingly painful experiences of my life’.

The close call has given her a brand new outlook on life.

In a separate social media post on Thursday, she shared: “I’m still a little bit in shock, if I’m honest, coming to terms with just how close I came to not being here anymore.

“It’s made me realise there are still so many things I want to see, do, learn and experience, and that perhaps ‘one day’ isn’t a date we should rely on.

“So, I’ve decided it’s time to write a proper bucket list and start ticking things off.”

This is not the star’s first sudden health crisis.

Back in 2021, she needed emergency treatment for a suspected heart attack, later sharing images of herself fitted with a cardiac monitor.

Katie originally rose to fame on the seventh series of The X Factor.

She was mentored by Cheryl in the girls category and eventually finished the ITV competition in seventh place – which was won by Matt Cardle.

She also appeared as a housemate on Celebrity Big Brother in 2016.

The singer is now qualified to work as a paralegal or start vocational training to become a solicitor or barrister.

The mum-of-one and lawyer set up her own dedicated foundation, O.W.H.L, in 2023 – campaigning to reform safety standards within the showbiz world.

She was branded the “most hated contestant” when she appeared on the show and has sought therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after suffering panic attacks and suicidal thoughts.

SHARON Osbourne was forced to miss her late rocker husband Ozzy’s statue unveiling after being rushed to hospital.

The 73-year-old returned to social media to explain her absence at the event this week.

Sharon was notably missing from the French metal festival Hellfest where the tribute to Ozzy was revealed, which stands at 20ft tall.

His widow Sharon told fans on social media: “I’m sorry I couldn’t be at Hellfest for the unveiling of Ozzy’s statue.

“Unfortunately I had an unexpected trip to the hospital earlier in the week. 

“A big thank you Olivier Garnier, Ben Barbaud and everyone at Hellfest. Special thank you to @philippe_pasqua_officiel for the absolutely stunning statue!”

Black Sabbath singer Ozzy died aged 76 last July following a long battle with Parkinson’s.

Sharon recently put the LA mansion she shared with her late husband up for sale for $17m (£13m), and will be moving into an apartment.

The X Factor legend still has her Grade-II listed Georgian mansion in Buckinghamshire, where Ozzy is buried.

Ozzy’s final performance in Birmingham last summer completely sold out and raised millions.

But it was all donated to three charities: Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorns Children’s Hospice.

His other earnings have now gone to his family, who revealed this week that they are trying to buy back the Beverly Hills mansion where they shot their MTV reality show The Osbournes in the Noughties.

A DISNEY legend has been rushed to hospital after suffering a stroke, leaving his nearest and dearest concerned.

The musician, known for films such as Aladdin and Beauty and The Beast, is currently under medical care following the scary incident.

Paebo Bryson is best known for songs such as Aladdin’s A Whole New World and the titular track for Beauty And The Beast, a duet with Celine Dion.

The family of Peabo, who is now 75, have shared that he suffered a stroke this week in a worrying ordeal.

In a statement shared with Variety, they said: “Two-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and balladeer, Peabo Bryson — the voice behind the Oscar-winning Disney songs ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘A Whole New World’ — has suffered a stroke and is currently under medical care.

“At this time, the family requests privacy as they navigate this deeply personal moment together.

“The thoughts, prayers and love of friends and fans are welcomed and deeply appreciated.”

Hailing from South Carolina, Peabo is married to singer Tanya Bryson (née Boniface) and a dad to eight-year-old son Kitt and older daughter Linda.

Peabo has had a lengthy music career with numerous accolades under his belt.

In 1992, his performance of Beauty and the Beast with Céline Dion won him a Grammy award in 1992.

A Whole New World, which he performed with Regina Belle, also bagged him the gong the following year.

Alongside his Disney hits, R&B star Peabo has a string of solo hits across the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s.

Songs If Ever You’re in My Arms Again, Can You Stop the Rain and Feel The Fire all hit the top end of the charts.

Back in 2019, he suffered a mild heart attack and was hospitalised.

At the time, his family assured doctors expecting Peabo to make a full recovery, with his health appearing in check up until this new scare.

A new trailer for Clarkson’s Farm has shown a moment when Jeremy Clarkson was hospitalised after suffering an issue with his heart where it “wasn’t getting any blood”

A new trailer for Clarkson’s Farm has shown the horrifying moment when star Jeremy Clarkson had to be hospitalised after a heart scare. In the clip, he told colleague Kaleb Cooper that his heart “wasn’t getting any blood”.

The trailer for season five was released on 18 May. It started with clips about life at Diddly Squat, including Jeremy’s pursuit of a driverless tractor, but the tone suddenly shifted when he opened up about a recent hospitalisation.

Clips of the star in hospital, with wires connected to his chest, just after a clip of an ambulance racing down a country road. Jeremy could be heard telling Kaleb: “You’ve got three arteries that feed your heart to keep it pumping. My heart wasn’t getting any blood.”

The camera cut to Kaleb’s shocked face before another Diddly Squat farmer said: “To be fair, my mother dropped dead of heart attack at 67.” Jeremy responded that this was “cheery news”.

Jeremy has faced heart issues before. In 2024, he went through a heart procedure where he has a stent put in to open up a blocked artery after suffering from tightness in the chest. Writing in his column for the Sunday Times, the then 64-year-old said he thought he was having a heart attack because the symptoms were so familiar: “I certainly wasn’t having a heart attack. But if it hadn’t looked that way, I never would have been sent to hospital.”

Though he will discuss his latest hospitalisation in Clarkson’s Farm, Jeremy does not seem to be letting his heart scare slow him down. The rest of the new trailer showed him to be getting stuck into life at the farm as it battled a tuberculosis outbreak among the animals.

It also saw him consider using a driverless tractor. In the trailer, Jeremy is sitting in his office and talking to Charlie Ireland: “I’ve had a brainwave, don’t worry.” Charlie was left shocked when he was handed a piece of paper that had plans for a driverless tractor.

The footage cut to said tractor, which was described as the “Starship Enterprise of farming”, working away on the land and Jeremy declaring to farmhand Kaleb: “Behold my technology at work.” Kaleb responded: “That is basically taking my job.”

But, Kaleb didn’t have to worry about his job as the tractor soon stopped moving in the middle of ploughing a field. “That went well,” Kaleb joked.

The new series was greenlit by Prime Video back on November 5, 2024 and filming took place last year. The first four episodes will be released on 3 June and the remaining will arrive in batches on the 10th and 17th.

Prime Video have not said if the show will continue after the upcoming series, but Jeremy has expressed his desire to have the show come back for at least two more seasons.

“We’ll definitely do six – Amazon want to [do season six] and I want to. I’ve got a good idea for six,” Clarkson told The Sun earlier this year. “I said I’ll stop doing them when there are no more ideas. But I’ve got two quite good ones, so we’ll do six and then we’ll see.”
