Thomas

Sami Mokbel: Rio Ngumoha and Lewis Hall are among the players to have been named in England manager Thomas Tuchel’s provisional squad for the forthcoming Nations League internationals, though it remains to be seen whether they make the final cut.

Liverpool winger Ngumoha was part of a contingent of young players that flew with the England senior squad for their pre-World Cup training camp in Palm Beach.

He was unexpectedly handed his debut in the warm-up game against New Zealand, impressing in a second-half cameo.

But the 18-year-old is yet to be picked in a full senior England squad – although he is in with a chance of being selected by Tuchel for the forthcoming games against Spain, the Czech Republic and Croatia.

Hall’s World Cup omission raised eyebrows given England entered the tournament without a natural left-back.

Before naming his full squad on Friday, Tuchel is required to submit a preliminary squad of players from which he will name his final party.

It is understood Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly and Everton’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall are also among the names selected in Tuchel’s extended list.

Attacking duo Cole Palmer and Phil Foden are on there too, after being two of the biggest omissions from Tuchel’s squad for the World Cup.

That decision was deemed a mistake from certain circles, given they are two of English football’s most creative players.

Meanwhile, Tuchel is expected to omit Jordan Henderson, Dean Henderson and John Stones because of injury.

Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski are calling it quits.

The former couple, who tied the knot in March 2017, told People that they had been separated for some time.

“We have been separated for a while, and it’s proven to be the right move for us and our family unit. We’ve got each other forever — and it’s GOOD,” Seyfried and Sadoski told the outlet.

On Tuesday, Seyfried shared a piece of prose by poet and author Bianca Sparacino on her Instagram stories that read:

“Maybe in another lifetime.”

“No.

“This is all you get. So please, just fight for the things that crack light into your life, fight for the things that soften you. Protect the people you love, leave them better than you found them. Defend your heart, do whatever it takes to keep it open despite what it has been through. Forgive, not just others, but yourself, as well. Slow down. Taste, and touch, and feel and care. Create the things you want to see in this world, stay as curious as possible. Honour your joy, do not shy away from the good that is trying to reach you, do not convince yourself that you are unworthy of it. Be strong enough to be gentle. Be brave enough to break. Be all that you are. Be all that you are.”

The pair met back in 2015 while starring in “The Way We Get By,” a two-person off-Broadway play that explores love and lust and takes place the morning after a drunken hookup. It was Seyfried’s stage debut. “I feel like the luckiest guy in New York right now, to be honest with you,” Sadoski told Backstage on Broadway at the time. “I mean, I get one of the great American playwrights, one of the great American directors, and a perfect scene partner, I’m a pretty happy guy.”

The two teamed up again the same year to play love interests once more in “The Last Word.”

After spending a good portion of the year pretending to be in love with Seyfried on stage and screen, in October 2015, Sadoski split from his wife of eight years, studio casting executive Kimberly “Becky” Hope. By March 2016, the “Newsroom” actor was romantically linked to the “Mamma Mia!” star.

Seyfried, 40, and Sadoski, 50, tied the knot in a private countryside ceremony in 2017. There were no family or friends on the guest list, just their officiant and Seyfried’s dog, Finn. Shortly after the nuptials, the pair welcomed a baby girl, Nina. In 2020, they had a son, Thomas Jr.

The couple have raised their family on a farm in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, a property the “Mean Girls” star bought in 2013, while also maintaining properties in Los Angeles and Manhattan. But last month, Seyfried listed her 2,700-square-foot Los Angeles residence for about $3.2 million.

AMANDA Seyfried and her husband, Thomas Sadoski, have split after nine years of marriage.

The couple revealed in a statement to People on Tuesday that they’re going their separate ways.

“We have been separated for a while, and it’s proven to be the right move for us and our family unit. We’ve got each other forever—and it’s GOOD,” their joint statement read.

Amanda, 40, and Thomas, 50, first connected in 2015 while starring in the off-Broadway production of The Way We Get By.

The actors reunited months later as love interests in The Last Word and began dating in March 2016.

Their love story quickly blossomed as they got engaged later that year and quietly eloped in March 2017.

Awkward moment Amanda Seyfried caught ‘mocking’ rivals after losing Golden Globe

“We eloped. We just took off into the country with an officiant and just the two of us, and we did our thing,” Thomas revealed at the time about their secret wedding.

“It was beautiful. It was everything that it should be. It was just the two of us talking to each other.”

Their daughter Nina arrived just days after they said, “I do,” followed by their son, Thomas Jr., in September 2020.

The pair had kept their relationship relatively out of the public eye while living on a farm in upstate New York.

They’ve each made brief remarks about their romance in the past, with Thomas gushing in 2017 that Amanda was “the person that I love, admire, respect most in the world.”

Amanda also boasted about her husband, saying in 2023 that their relationship was like “yin and yang.”

They certainly shared a passion for the cameras, as both have had successful acting careers for decades.

Amanda most recently starred in The Housemaid alongside Sydney Sweeney and The Testament of Ann Lee.

She’s preparing for the release of her newest film, The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd, next month.

Thomas is best known for playing Don Keefer in the HBO series The Newsroom.

His acting career began when he landed the role of Mark Ruffalo’s understudy in the Off-Broadway play This Is Our Youth.

The Connecticut native made his film debut in 2000, starring as Chris in Loser.
