“I have enjoyed my career immensely, and I still love writing music as I have always seen it as a hobby I was lucky enough to make into a career. I’ll identify as a songwriter forever.”

Some even went as far as to allege that he looked as though he may have been under the influence of a dangerous substance.

“Glad it wasn’t just me thinking it,” one person commented.

“There was a lot of going off screen, coming back and nose wiping.”

“I was in the live last night, there was definitely something off,” another said.

Declan couldn’t even get his words out.”

“I cannot believe what I just watched,” a third wrote.

“I was in this live, they didn’t have a clue,” someone else added.

While another claimed Declan was “off his face”.

Others defended him, with Declan then releasing his own video on his TikTok page to set the record straight on what had actually happened.

“In the last 24 hours I’ve been going through a lot of hate and kind of abuse on the internet, on TikTok especially, and it’s been a lot,” he said.

“I just kind of want to talk about things and kind of just where my head’s at.”

He explained that he’d worked at P Louise all day, then gone onto the livestream and worked from 4pm to midnight.

“And from this live, people have been making, you know, I’ve taken videos and taken like screenshots and all this stuff of me manifesting,” he said, referring to a moment where he had closed his eyes and held his hands in a meditative pose.

“And been saying that I’ve been abusing drugs, taking drugs on a livestream, doing all this stuff.

“And it’s like, I just don’t get it. Like this, this has affected me…

“The live just, it turned dark very quickly at one point.”

“Hold your head high, straighten that crown and show everyone how strong and powerful you are.”

“What a sad world we live in,” a third told Declan.

“My darling you are a beautiful person , with a beautiful soul, with so much to give.

“I am so so proud to have watched you grow into the person you are . This is not okay.

“But you speaking up shows a lot of strength, and also remember how many people you inspire and have inspired.

“Sending love my darling.”

Woman swears after family ‘photobomb’ her magical park proposal, but trolls rage the ‘world doesn’t revolve around you’

A WOMAN has sparked fury after taking aim at a young family who “photobombed” her park proposal.

Sydney’s other half pulled out all the stops to pop the question to her in their local park, and had arranged a red runway on the grass lined with candles, with a huge heart display at the end.

He then got down on one knee to ask Sydney to be his wife, but the magical moment was delayed slightly when a group stopped at the heart to take a selfie.

While the proposal then went ahead, and Sydney happily said yes, she decided to call out the “photobombers” in a scathing video on her TikTok page.

In a green screen clip of the proposal scene, she pointed to the three people who stopped by the heart, as she said: “If you are the family right there that’s walking up to my proposal heart as I’m about to get engaged…

“And you pick up your kid and you take a selfie and take your leisurely time doing so…

“And we’re just standing there waiting, waiting patiently for you to be done.”

Sydney then stuck both of her middle fingers up at the screen and mouthed “F**k you”.

“That is so rude!” she fumed.

“You didn’t even say anything when you like…” Sydney trailed off as she failed to conceal her anger.

“Had to pause the crying to almost cuss them out lol,” she added in the video caption.

Despite her fury over the situation, the comments section of the TikTok was immediately filled with people criticising Sydney for the video.

“First lesson in life, the world does not revolve around you,” one wrote.

“Let’s all remember we don’t own public spaces,” another insisted.

“A public park isn’t your studio,” a third pointed out.

“Well this groom is in for one hell of the rest of his life. Yikes!” someone else wrote sarcastically.

“Did they not see the signs that the world revolved around you?” another questioned.

“I totally would’ve assumed that the large display in the PUBLIC PARK was set up by the park for everyone – not just you,” someone else wrote.

How to ace a proposal

Thinking of proposing? Follow this checklist by Fabulous’ Deputy Editor Josie Griffiths to ensure a yes…

  1. Time it right – the average Brit waits between 18 months and two years to get engaged. But you might feel ready after six months, or decide to wait five plus years to pop the question. Only you truly know when the time’s right, and this isn’t a decision you want to rush. Falling in love might feel amazing but of course most relationships DON’T end in marriage – and this is for good reason…
  2. Pay attention – hopefully you haven’t reached the point yet of your frustrated partner leaving their laptop open with ‘hints’ for rings they like. Ideally you’ll want the ring to be a secret, but also something they’d happily wear – and for the rest of their life, so just a TEENY bit of pressure here. You need to be paying attention to any comments your partner makes about other people’s rings, what they do and don’t like, and what’s most important to them – size, clarity, specific details. If you’re really unsure, or if your partner hates surprises, it’s best to propose with a dummy and then buy the real thing together.
  3. Family matters – tradition dictates that you ask the dad’s permission for his daughter’s hand in marriage, but it’s not so straightforward nowadays. Maybe your partner’s closer to their step-dad, or wants her mum to walk her down the aisle, in which case you’d be better off chatting to them. Maybe they’d find it weird if you went to their parents first, in which case you could ditch the whole thing. Or perhaps they’re closer to their friends and the best idea would be letting your partner’s best mate pick the ring. These things do matter and could come back to bite you if handled in the wrong way.
  4. Plan the setting – does your partner dread being centre of attention, or are they someone who’d be gutted if you proposed at home, berating you forever for a lack of ‘effort’? Plan the place for your perfect proposal – how busy it’ll be, whether you’ll be able to get a good pic there, and other logistics around it. A proposal at the top of a mountain might sound good in theory but your girlfriend might not actually appreciate it when there’s sweat dripping down her forehead and she’s not wearing the cute dress she’d imagined for the pictures. Personally, I can’t think of anything worse than a public proposal where everyone’s waiting to hear your answer – in a group of friends, the middle of a restaurant or with an announcement at an event. So bear all of this in mind and remember, it’s meant to be about what THEY want, not you.

“Trying to be the main character in a public space is WILD,” another scathed.

But there were also those who defended Sydney.

“It takes zero time to ask if something is for the public or private,” one argued.

“The level of entitlement some of y’all have by saying it’s a public space is ridiculous.

“They clearly had to have permission to set something like this up and clearly no one else is jumping in/on the staging area.”

“So shocked by these comments!!!” someone else wrote.

“It’s just common curtesy and just a few brain cells to see a red heart and roses and know someone is about to have one of the biggest moments of their life.

“Maybe not take a picture and just stay away from that area? people in these comments for real need to get a grip.”

The couple currently has six children and Aubree is pregnant with their seventh child.

In a recent Instagram clip, the couple revealed which of them picked their kids’ names, writing: “Who named each of the kids?”

“If you heard his picks, you would understand..” Aubree added.

But it seemed viewers weren’t convinced once they revealed each moniker, saying neither of them should be able to name any more children.

They started with their oldest daughter, named Trendy Chanelle, Aubree said she picked the first name while Josh picked her middle name.

Next was Zaylee Ruth, whose names were picked out by her mum.

Their third child was named Sunny Love, with Aubree picking the first name and Josh picking the middle.

Next up was their daughter, Truly Eclair, again, mum picked the first name while dad got dibs on the middle name.

Journey Rey came next, named by her mum and lastly, there was Rocky Joshua, named by his mum and dad.

The clip was shared on her Instagram account @whataboutaub which went viral with over 1.4 million views and 10k likes.

The three names I’d never pick for my children as a kids therapist & Rory is a hard no for starters

While the parents loved their choice of unique names, people in the comments section were clearly not impressed.

One person wrote: “These are great names for a Labubu.”

Another commented: “You realise you’re naming humans right?”

“Neither of you should be allowed to name children actually,” penned a third.

Banned Names in the UK

The UK has no law restricting names, but names that contain obscenities, numerals, misleading titles, or are impossible to pronounce are likely to be rejected when registering a child.

  • Hitler
  • Monkey
  • Cyanide
  • Martian
  • Akuma
  • Chow Tow
  • Rogue

Meanwhile a fourth said: “What are you naming… dogs?”

“Kids are going to have a rough time in school,” claimed a fifth.

Someone else added: “Never pick a name again.”

Woman slammed for ‘vulgar’ wedding guest dress as trolls say she’s trying to ‘make the whole day’ about her ‘rack’

IT’S can be hard to choose an outfit to wear to a wedding.

And one woman found that choosing a colour other than white isn’t the only rule to stick to – as she raised eyebrows with her dress choice.

Noelle took to her Instagram page to share a video of herself with her other half, as she wrote over the top: “This is your sign to ask him out first…”

“Worst case? A story. Best case? A boyfriend,” she added in the caption.

The clip showed the pair grinning at each other and embracing, as they prepared to head off to some nuptials.

But it was Noelle’s dress choice that led to her coming under fire – specifically the neckline.

The maxi dress featured a low-cut neckline, which left little to the imagination as it clung to her curves.

And the comments section saw people taking aim at Noelle for her outfit choice, with one writing: “Dress on backwards or is that her low self esteem hanging out?”

“Dress is vulgar,” another added.

“Seems desperate for attention,” a third sighed.

“Imagine going to a friend’s wedding and you use it as an opportunity to make it all about your own rack!” someone else scathed.

“Sorry horrendous dress for a wedding! No respect!” another added.

I’m 5ft3 & a size 12-14 – my 7 Tesco dresses are an absolute bargain & perfect for a last-minute wedding guest outfit

“Put your tata’s away. What the heck?” someone else questioned.

But others defended Noelle, insisting she’s perfectly within her rights to wear exactly what she wants – when she wants.

“She can’t help having big boobs and she’s allowed to wear a dress with a cute neckline. Hope that helps!” one wrote.

“I wanted people showing up to my wedding in their hottest outfits, because I’m not insecure and I want my girlfriends to look and feel good every chance they get,” another added.

“There were some short short dresses, boobs out and guess what, we ALL had a BLAST out there on the dance floor all night long.

“Boobs exist, who cares?”

5 clothing mistakes women with big boobs make

Do you have DD+ boobs and struggle to find clothes that fit?

Fabulous’ Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend has shared her top tips on clothes to avoid if you have a big bust.

1. Say no to the polo

High necklines such a roll necks are to be avoided if you have a fuller bust.  Closed chests and necks make your boobs appear bigger and can sometimes give you the dreaded uni-boob. 

Try wearing V-necks, sweetheart, off the shoulder or scooped necklines that elongate the look of your neck and decolletage. 

2. Bigger isn’t better

Frills, draping and excess fabric to cover your boobs only makes them look bigger.  They make you look too top heavy and add unnecessary bulk on your top half which distracts from your face.

Instead keep things clean and simple with sleek fabrics and designs with open necklines. 

3. Skip slogan tees

Slogan or printed T-shirts are having a moment with fashion fans falling over themselves to get Ganni Tees, or their high street dupes. 

The key is to make sure you’re not buying a top with thick, heavy paint plastered on as the print. These will stretch over your fuller chests and split, resulting in a messy look and a ruined T-shirt that’s now a waste of money. 

4. Avoid crop tops

Tops that are shorter in length or crop tops should be swerved if you had a big chest. You’ll find you spend most of your time pulling it down and also it messes with the proportions of your body.

If you have a big bust and a crop top on, they cut you off in the middle, which makes your bust look even bigger and in worse cases give the illusion that your chest meets your waist. 

A longer top (including anything from a T-shirt to a jumper) will create the right proportions.

5. Body-wrong

Straight or tight fitted dresses are brilliant at showing off your figure.  However if you have a big bust that isn’t in proportion with the rest of your shape they’re a no-go.

If you have a fuller bust you can create balance and a defined hourglass silhouette by wearing A-line dresses or skirts.

“These comments didn’t pass the vibe check… Girl how do you get them to stay like THAT?!?!” a third laughed.

“The amount of prudes in the comments is wild,” someone else said.

“I don’t think anybody would be saying anything about the neckline if you had a small chest… but because you’re well endowed, everybody’s p**sed.

“Seems like it’s more of their own insecurity and not yours. You look stunning in that dress! Do you boo!”

“The body shaming in these comments is NOT IT!” another added.

“The dress is gorgeous and having larger breasts and wanting them to shine isn’t a crime.

“Also most clothing isn’t made for bustier girls. You are beautiful queen.

“Keep wearing whatever the hell makes you feel beautiful!”

Cruel trolls say I need to see an ‘exorcist’ due to my rare condition – it’s so bad I struggle to leave the house

A WOMAN has believed that she suffers with a rare condition that’s so bad, cruel trolls have told her she needs to call an “exorcist.”

Rachel, 20, revealed that her condition is so bad, she barely leaves the house and struggles to even order food at a restaurant.

Woman with rare condition discusses online bullying.

The content creator suffers with Tourette’s, a neurological disorder that causes involuntary sounds or movements, known as tics.

Her body often twitches in an uncontrollable manner, and she makes lots of “random” noises such as whistling.

However, the worst part about Rachel’s condition is that she has something called coprolalia, which is a form of Tourette’s that causes sufferers to shout obscene and inappropriate phrases.

Only between 10 and 30% of Tourettes sufferers have coprolalia and it can cause those who have it to become extremely embarrassed and stressed.

“It does become frustrating that I can’t stop my tics or control them”, she told Love Don’t Judge.

Rachel had minor tics throughout her childhood, but they were so small that they were hardly noticeable.

However, when she was 15 her condition suddenly worsened very rapidly.

“It was very scary”, Rachel’s dad said.

“The person we knew was literally gone.”

After receiving an official diagnosis from her doctor, Rachel said the whole world crashed around her.

Scots Tourette’s sufferer from famous BBC doc to be played by Netflix star

“I absolutely refused to go anywhere”, she said.

She stopped attending school so had to be homeschooled and hardly ever met up with friends.

“It was incredibly isolating for a very long time”, she said.

“I remember feeling like my entire life was over.”

The reality of living with Tourette’s syndrome

TOURETTE’S syndrome is a condition that causes a person to make involuntary sounds and movements called tics.

It usually starts during childhood, but the tics and other symptoms often improve after several years, and sometimes go away completely.

There’s no cure for Tourette’s, but treatment can help manage symptoms.

The most common physical tics include:

  • Blinking
  • Eye rolling
  • Grimacing
  • Shoulder shrugging
  • Jerking of the head or limbs
  • Jumping
  • Twirling
  • Touching objects and other people

Examples of vocal tics include:

  • Grunting
  • Throat clearing
  • Whistling
  • Coughing
  • Tongue clicking
  • Animal sounds
  • Saying random words and phrases
  • Repeating a sound, word or phrase
  • Swearing

Swearing is rare and only affects about 1 in 10 people with Tourette’s.

Some people can control their tics for a short time in certain social situations, like in a classroom.

But this can be tiring, and someone may have a sudden release of tics when they return home.

Aidy Smith, who was diagnosed with Tourette’s aged nine, said these are the most common misconceptions about the condition:

  1. It is a ‘swearing disease’ characterised by repeated bad language
  2. People with Tourette’s can’t succeed in the workplace
  3. It’s impossible to control your tics
  4. ‘Tourette’s’ is a ‘dirty’ word
  5. It’s OK to make jokes about the condition because it isn’t serious

Source: NHS and Aidy Smith

Thankfully, Rachel’s saviour came when she posted a video to TikTok, showing her ticking, and it quickly blew up.

The post was flooded with people asking comments about her condition, or revealing that they experienced the same thing.

“They were happy to see it in the media”, she said.

“I thought, oh my gosh, I can do something positive.”

Rachel is now a content creator, and makes videos to raise awareness about Tourette’s.

However, she receives a lot of hate comments, from people who don’t believe it’s real.

“When people say I’m faking my Tourette’s Syndrome, I feel invalidated”, she said.

“It’s a core part of who I am.”

Rachel added that she has also had trolls claiming she needs “an exorcist”, and has been “taken over by a parasite.”

Despite finding these comments hurtful, Rachel sees them as all the more reason to raise awareness about her condition.

She said: “All I have to say to those who have judged me because of my condition is I hope that they learn to not judge others so quickly when they see something or someone that they don’t quite understand.

“I believe that we should all embrace our differences. And I think that we should all be committed to being so beautifully and uniquely and truly ourselves.”

Alison Hammond responds to cruel trolls who want her axed from ITV show

This Morning star Alison Hammond has issued a brutal response to cruel trolls who have called for her to be axed from an ITV show.

Alison Hammond has delivered a blunt three-word message to critics calling for her axe from an ITV programme – “deal with it”.

The host has responded to demands from online trolls over her position on For The Love Of Dogs.

The 50-year-old broadcaster took over hosting the ITV programme after Paul O’Grady’s death in 2023 and two years on she continues to face scrutiny.

Yet, the This Morning favourite has served up a brutal comeback. Chatting to The Guardian, Alison declared: “People say Pete Wicks would be better than me at presenting For the Love of Dogs.

“He might be, but I’m doing it. Deal with it! I know my worth. Besides, my mum would have been so proud. That’s why I do this. She’s my guiding light.”

Additionally, Alison referenced a TikTok clip showing a woman slamming her involvement in Celebrity Gogglebox,” reports Birmingham Live.

Alison revealed she is “good at saying no” and will reject opportunities if they don’t fit her schedule or when she requires downtime.

She went on: “It may seem like I’m on TV a lot, but I stand out partly because it’s still not common to see a Black woman doing this.

“I don’t want to bring race into it but nobody says that about Davina or Ant and Dec. I’ve worked hard for 22 years to get here.”

Alison emphasised she is merely “doing a job that I adore to the best of my ability, trying to be better than I was yesterday”.

Previously this year, Alison was stunned when a vicious online bully branded her “repulsive”. She shared a light-hearted video of herself driving a tractor in a cornfield on social media, with the caption: “Rolling into my holidays.”

However, a comment from a 77-year-old man named Peter left her almost speechless. Peter’s comment read: “People say Pete Wicks would be better than me at presenting For the Love of Dogs.

“Any time we see you are on TV we switch channels as you turn our stomachs being so fat and repulsive with a huge mouth.”

Clearly distressed, Alison retweeted his comment with a single word – “Wow”.

One fan, rallying behind the presenter, commented: “Alison you know how special and fantastic you are.”

Mrs Hinch hits back at trolls for mum-shaming her about school holiday activity saying sons are ‘learning a life skill’

MRS Hinch has hit back after trolls mum-shamed her for the “activity” she’d set up to keep her sons entertained during the summer holidays.

The 35-year-old, real name Sophie Hinchcliffe, has turned her love of cleaning into a lucrative career.

And it seems she’s hoping that she’s passed on this love to her eldest boys – Ronnie, five, and Lennie, three.

As she took to her Instagram page this week to share a Reel which showed the pair helping her out cleaning the house.

In addition to dusting and tidying, the boys were seen changing the tablecloth in the kitchen and wiping the surfaces.

They even appeared to have inherited her home tweaks, such as her famous pillow “chop” – hitting the middle of cushions and pillows to give them a distinctive look – as Ronnie was seen copying his mum.

Alongside the video, Mrs Hinch wrote: “Here’s to raising boys who know that teamwork starts at home.

“It’s not about the mess, it’s about the message, learning that we’re a team, and everyone’s part matters.

“I would love for my boys to grow up knowing the basics of how to manage a home, not just for themselves, but so the heavy load doesn’t always fall on one partner’s shoulders.”

And while the majority of people praised Mrs Hinch for the Reel, there were also a few negative comments.

“Poor kids making them clean,” one wrote.

“Pleased you ain’t my mum. School holidays are for a reason!”

Mrs Hinch then responded in a post on her Instagram Story, as she wrote: “I don’t make my children clean the house everyday AT ALL
In fact, they want to help!

“It’s not even about the cleaning, or the mess.

“It’s about teamwork, helping each other, learning little life skills and even making it fun if I can.”

She thanked those who had left kind comments, and concluded: “And to those who feel the need to be so negative, honestly, let mums parent their kids without judgement. Please!”

And Sophie’s post was backed by others in the comments, with one writing: “I can’t believe people had a go at you over this!

“Jeez people wanna lighten up!!”

Mrs Hinch’s whopping £4.4million fortune

HOMEMAKER Sophie Hinchcliffe makes a whopping £4,313 per day. The star, known best as Mrs Hinch online, has cleaned up with bumper earnings for her social media, with reported new figures for company Mrs Hinch Limited.

In fact, according to Companies House, she has more than a million reasons to be smiling with the company’s takings in 2024 amounting to a huge £1,574,405 annual profit.

While another added: “Why is Joe’s eldest son never with them.”

This person said: “I agree would be nice for them to acknowledge they’re missing one!”

Their holiday comes just days after it was reported how Stacey and Joe have made a “vow” amid “silly bickering”, according to a source.

It comes after “tension” between the popular couple has recently been captured on TV.

Stacey Solomon’s career so far

Stacey Solomon has been a familiar face on viewers’ screens for over a decade. Let’s take a look back at her career.

The X Factor (2009): Stacey competed in series six of long-running ITV singing competition The X Factor. During her time in the show, she was mentored by Danni Minogue in the ‘Girls’ category. The star finished in third place, behind Joe McElderry and Olly Murs.

I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here (2010); In late 2010, Stacey headed to the infamous I’m A Celeb Aussie jungle. After 21 days, she triumphed to win the tenth series. It was through I’m A Celeb that she met future husband Joe Swash – who’d won two years earlier and was hosting the ITV2 spinoff.

Celebrity Juice (2011―2013, 2016―2019): The star appeared as a panellist on 21 episodes of the comedy panel game show hosted by Keith Lemon. Stacey was a regular in the 21st series, broadcast in 2019.

Loose Women (2016 – present): Stacey has been a permanent panel member of the daytime show since 2016. She previously made guest appearances in 2011 and 2012.

Sort Your Life Out (2022 -present): This BBC show sees Stacey, with the help of an expert team, transform participants’ living spaces after removing clutter.

However, according to a source, the couple have vowed to take time out to remember why they’re so good for each other. 

During their BBC reality show, the pair shared a close-up look into the ups and downs of life at Pickle Cottage and their relationship.

The source told New Magazine: “There’s tension in the air and there is a bit of bickering. But it puts a strain on any relationship.

“You look at those on reality shows, such as the wives in The Real Housewives, with cameras in their houses 24/7, and a lot of their relationships crack under the pressure.“ 

Despite this, the source maintained that a break away from the cameras, however small, is just what Stacey and Joe need. 

The source added: “They’re worried that if they don’t have a break from the cameras and the limelight, it could affect what makes their relationship special.

“They’re still very much in love and are really trying to focus on each other amid the silly bickering and moments of tension, and remember why they got together in the first place – and why they’re actually so perfect together.

“They have vowed to carve out some quality time this summer to do that.”

Gay makeup artist slams ‘idiotic’ online trolls using his photo for right-wing memes

A gay makeup artist and content creator has shut down right-wing trolls using his photos to promote right-wing talking points.

Over the last few years, social media has seen an increase in far-right accounts spewing hateful rhetoric towards the LGBTQIA+ community, people of colour and generally anything that represents diversity or community.

While some are front-facing with their bigotry, sharing videos and creating awful podcasts, many opt to hide behind anonymous profiles filled with inflammatory statements and cringeworthy memes.

However, one thing that has become evident with extremely conservative social media users is their less-than-stellar history of researching and vetting their sources properly.

This was certainly the case for an account on TikTok, which unknowingly used a photo of openly gay makeup artist Anthony Gordon as its rugged right-wing mascot.

“Remember boys, they keep calling us ‘far-right’ when in reality we have been ‘right-so-far,’ the meme says alongside a photo of Gordon pensively staring off camera in a flannel shirt and cowboy hat.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the LA-based content creator to discover that his image was being used for right-wing purposes.

Taking to his Threads account, Gordon slammed the account that uploaded the meme, writing: “New here. Some of you will remember the idiotic far right stole an image of me to make a meme for them… What they don’t know is I’m far left gay liberal man lol. Bozos! Follow me, please.”

Since sharing his post, Gordon has received heaps of support from his followers.

“I lolled when I first saw this because I knew,” one person wrote.

Another Threads user commented: “They did the same thing to Kristofer Weston, the gay leatherman from @wattsthesafeword. Everytime they find an image of what they think they represent, it’s another gay progressive hot daddy. It’s starting to feel a little Freudian in here.”

As previously mentioned, social media has become a volatile place for LGBTQIA+ users due to the rise of far-right accounts and a lack of inclusive protections.

According to GLAAD’s 2025 Social Media Safety Index, platforms are largely “failing to mitigate harmful anti-LGBTQ hate and disinformation that violates their own policies.”

Another key finding from the report revealed that LGBTQ content is disproportionately suppressed on platforms “via removal, demonetization, and forms of shadowbanning.” At the same time, those same companies are withholding “meaningful transparency about content moderation algorithms, data protection and data privacy practices.”

In a statement, GLAAD President and CEO, Sarah Kate Ellis said: “Recent years undeniably illustrate how online hate speech and misinformation negatively influence public opinion, legislation, and the real-world safety and health of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people.

“The landscape of social media platform accountability work has shifted dramatically since GLAAD’s first SMSI report in 2021, with new and dangerous challenges in 2025.”

The self-proclaimed “spoiled girlfriend” lives a luxury lifestyle with skiing trips to Vail Village, Colorado, designer bags, posh hotel stays and delicious meals out.

But now, the content creator has found herself on the receiving end of a barrage of abuse from mean trolls who have criticised her relationship dynamic.

Not only were keyboard warriors “disgusted” by the age gap, but others told her to choose “self-respect over money.” 

It came after Sass took to social media to show off her age gap relationship, leaving many open-mouthed.

Alongside a gorgeous picture of Sass and her partner before an evening out, she confirmed that while she was born in 1997, her man was welcomed into the world much earlier, in 1970. 

But Sass, who “doesn’t date younger”, was eager to set the record straight on her relationship, as she wrote: “If you know us as individuals, us as a couple makes sense. 

“Those we know in real life understand, are supportive and happy for us.”

Not only this, but she claimed that her man is “highly educated, emotionally intelligent, financially secure”, has “a great personality and is hot.”

As a result, she confirmed: “I’m happy as Larry.”

The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @sweetheartsass, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 136,800 views, 4,372 likes and 391 comments. 

I’m 20 and my man is 63 – people say he looks like Shrek and I must be in it for the money, but I’d still love him if he was a cleaner

But social media users were totally divided by Sass’ relationship – while some accused her of doing “anything for money”, others were supportive. 

One person said: “Lol my dad was born in 1977 and me in 1994. If they’re old enough to be your parent, it’s not right, sorry.” 

Anything for money and a lifestyle I guess

But to this, Sass eagerly clapped back and snapped: “I literally do not care about you and your dad. Go away.” 

Another slammed: “Self respect over money!” 

A-list age gap relationships that have stood the test of time

  1. Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble – 25 years
    The Kardashian matriarch, 69, met her younger man, 44, at a mutual friend’s 40th birthday party in Ibiza. They’ve been together since August 2014.
  2. Sam & Aaron Taylor-Johnson – 23 years
    The director, 57, and actor, 34, reportedly met at a film audition in 2009, and were married by 2012. The pair share two daughters and Sam has two children from a previous marriage.
  3. Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley & Jason Statham – 20 years
    The model, 37, started dating actor Jason, 57, in 2010. They were wed in 2016 and have since welcomed a son and a daughter together.
  4. Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas – 25 years
    Catherine, 55, was introduced to Michael, 80, a film festival in 1996 and engaged three years later. Shortly after their engagement, the couple welcomed a son and married in 2000.

And a third commented: “Anything for money and a lifestyle I guess.” 

But at the same time, one user said: “Why are people disgusted with this? It’s not for them so why is it your issue? Not every relationship is a design to fit the usual expectations.” 

According to the comments I’ve committed a crime

Sass

A second chimed in: “I love this! She’s well looked after and if you look at their videos they look really happy. As women all we want is security and love and that’s what she’s getting regardless of the age gap!” 

Meanwhile, someone else gushed: “As long as you’re happy, it doesn’t matter what the person looks like, how old they are or who they are. Love is Love.” 

In response to the rude remarks, clearly unbothered, Sass later laughed: “According to the comments I’ve committed a crime.”

BBC News presenter Nina Warhurst has clapped back at a viewer’s unasked-for critique of her accent and wardrobe. Recently stepping up to present BBC‘s News at One and occasionally appearing on BBC Breakfast, Nina responded to a harsh comment that emerged online.

Nina shared the viewer’s message on Instagram. The comment read: “Just wondering if @NinaWarhurst has an opinion on what constitutes TOO short a skirt for a 44-year-old. Anyway, it’s pleasing there’s a very positive move towards ‘received’ pronunciation.”

However, the broadcaster didn’t let the comment go unanswered. Alongside denouncing the viewer’s words, Nina also posted her own retort.

In her response, she wrote: “When you briefly check back in with Twitter/X because surely it can’t be the stream of uninvited feedback from men that you remember… oh hi there. (Translation: if you’re gonna look like an old trout, it’s more acceptable if you don’t sound Mancunian. Noted.)”

This incident comes after Nina’s significant career shift from BBC Breakfast to the BBC News at One, although she still makes guest appearances on the morning show. The mother-of-three has been a key part of the Breakfast team for seven years, becoming a familiar face on the iconic red sofa and reporting from various locations, reports Leicestershire Live.

Upon announcing her new role in March, she stated: “I’ll be hanging up the high-viz and hairnet for a wee while as I join the BBC’s News at One.”

The presenter took a moment to reflect with her followers, recounting her initial emotions: “I was heavily pregnant, very nervous, and unbelievably excited to be offered a few shifts on the national broadcast treasure that is @bbcbreakfast. The job was made permanent as we came out of a lockdown and began looking around and wondering how we might pick up the pieces to heal and live again.”

She went on to express her gratitude: “It’s been a privilege to help support our audiences through this tumultuous time. I am always amazed by those who invite us in to share their stories.”

Recently, the host admitted she was in tears as she said farewell to BBC Breakfast. The journalist presented her last ever segment on the show , and couldn’t help getting emotional at the end of an era after joining in 2018.
