The family was enjoying dinner at a restaurant in Greece named The Island when they posed with several of the employees who gifted them a coffee table book.

In the photo, the teenager can be seen beaming as she stood between her famous parents as her mother sweetly held onto her arm.

‘Our girl,’ the mother-of-two captioned the picture, which showed her in a sleeveless, floor-length dress and light brown hair cascading down her back.

The post comes nearly three months after Grace landed her first magazine cover, in which she sported a $6,400 red lace sheath dress by Prada and a ‘Graceland’ trucker hat.

Turlington celebrated the milestone achievement by posting the issue of POP Magazine, featuring her lookalike, with a heartfelt caption.

‘Can’t take any credit or responsibility for this, other than having birthed this wonder to the world and given her the family name she carries with its full meaning and representation,’ Turlington captioned the image. ‘Once again, welcome to the world @graciebrns I love you, Kiddo.’

Grace was photographed by Clara Balzary for the cover shoot, and with her light brown hair, arched brows, and green eyes, she is the spitting image of her mother.

Turlington, along with Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Helena Christensen, Claudia Schiffer, and Elle Macpherson, was famously a part of the ’90s modeling cohort that the New York Times dubbed the ‘Magnificent Seven.’

Grace’s first cover got the stamp of approval from plenty of her mother’s famous friends, including Campbell, who called herself a ‘proud auntie’ in the comments of Turlington’s post.

‘Amazing!’ wrote Crawford, whose 20-year-old daughter, Kaia Gerber, is also a model, while Christensen shared heart eyes emojis in response.

Meanwhile, on Friday Christy proved she is still in top shape.

Pat Carroll — who voiced iconic Disney villain Ursula in The Little Mermaid — dies, aged 95

Pat Carroll — best known for voicing underwater villain Ursula in Disney’s 1989 The Little Mermaid — has died, aged 95.

Carroll’s daughter, Tara Karsian, confirmed the actor’s death on Instagram with a post praising her mother’s iconic laughter.

“We ask that you honor her by having a raucous laugh at absolutely anything today (and everyday forward) because besides her brilliant talent and love, she leaves my sister Kerry and I with the greatest gift of all, imbuing us with humor and the ability to laugh … even in the saddest of times,” Ms Karsian said.

The actor’s other daughter, Kerry Karsian, said Carroll died at her home in Cape Cod, in the US state of Massachusetts on Saturday.

Carroll’s first film role came in 1948, in Hometown Girl, but she found her stride in television.

She won an Emmy for her work on the sketch comedy series Caesar’s Hour in 1956, was a regular on Make Room for Daddy with Danny Thomas, a guest star on The DuPont Show with June Allyson, and a variety show regular stopping by The Danny Kaye Show, The Red Skelton Show and The Carol Burnett Show.

However, she’s best known for her role as Ursula in The Little Mermaid, with her throaty rendition of Poor Unfortunate Souls making her one of Disney’s most memorable villains.

Carroll would often say that Ursula was one of her favorite roles.

She said she saw her as an “Ex-Shakespearean actress who now sold cars.”

“She’s a mean old thing,” Carroll said in an interview.

“I think people are fascinated by mean characters.

“There’s a fatal kind of distraction about the horrible, mean characters of the world because we don’t meet too many of them in real life.

“So, when we have a chance, theatrically, to see one — and this one, she’s a biggie — it’s kind of fascinating for us.”

In a statement on Twitter, Disney Music said “we are deeply saddened” by Carroll’s death.

“We will forever treasure and remember her iconic portrayal of Ursula and performance of Poor Unfortunate Souls,” it said.

Dolph Lundgren responds to Sylvester Stallone’s criticism of the potential Rocky spin-off

Dolph Lundgren has responded after Sylvester Stallone criticized him for attaching himself to the potential Rocky spin-off, Drago.

Lundgren took to Instagram to clarify details of the spin-off after being called out. He revealed there is not an “approved script” for the project, or a director, Fox News reports.

“Just to set the record straight regarding a possible Drago spin-off,” Lundgren captioned a photo of himself and Stallone on Instagram. “There’s no approved script, no deals in place, no director and I was personally under the impression that my friend Sly Stallone was involved as a producer or even as an actor.

“There was a press leak last week which was unfortunate. In touch with Mr Balboa – just so all the fans can relax… There ya go.”

Yesterday, Stallone criticized Irwin Winkler and his sons, Charles and David, for “picking clean the bones” of the Rocky character Drago for the potential series.

“ONCE AGAIN, IRWIN WINKLER, this PATHETIC 94-year-old PRODUCER and HIS MORONIC VULTURE CHILDREN, Charles and David, are once again picking clean THE BONES of another wonderful character I created without even telling me,” he wrote on Instagram.

“I APOLOGISE to the FANS, I never wanted ROCKY characters to be exploited by these parasites,” Stallone added, before making a jab at Lundgren.

“By the way, I once had nothing but respect for Dolph but he NEVER told me about what was going on behind my back with the character I created for him! REAL FRIENDS are more precious than gold.”

Stallone has yet to respond to Lundgren’s recent reply.

Lundgren previously spoke about a possible spin-off to The Hollywood Reporter in 2021.

“By the way, I think there’s some talk about doing a whole spin-off on Drago with MGM. So you may get more of that,” Lundgren told the outlet at the time.

Stallone has also criticized Rocky franchise producer Winkler for keeping revenue generated by the spin-off films from him.

Commuters explode at anti-abortion preacher on Sydney train

Footage of an American anti-abortion preacher being told to “shut up” by passengers on a packed Sydney train has gone viral online.

The three-minute clip, originally filmed in 2019, resurfaced again on Reddit this week where it has racked up tens of thousands of views.

Phillip Blair from Torch of Christ Ministries boarded the busy train at Martin Place on a Monday morning and began reading bemused commuters in the crammed space.

“Hello Sydney, allow me three minutes of your time if you don’t mind – I’m not here to offend anyone, I’m here to give you hope,” he says.

“We care more about saving the whales than we care about saving our unborn children.”

An argument is sparked when a man sitting nearby reading his book interrupts Mr Blair asking him to stop.

“Thanks, mate – thank you,” the man says.

“No, I’m not going to stop because I love you that much,” Mr Blair replies.

“You have no more right than anyone else on this bus [sic]just shut up,” the man says.

“Yeah, shut up,” another man standing up says.

Mr Blair continues preaching about Jesus Christ, before the man sitting down yells at him again.

“If you asked for our time we have the right to say no, we’re not giving it to you,” he says. “Why won’t you just shut up?”

“Because I love you that much,” Mr Blair replies. “Suddenly Sydney for your sin. Suddenly before it’s too late. There is power in the name of Jesus to save your life.”

The man tells the preacher, “I’m not forcing my opinion on everyone in this train, so why don’t you just take your opinion and keep it to yourself?”

“It’s not an opinion it’s the truth,” Mr Blair says.

He continues ranting to the passengers about sin.

Asked why he won’t keep his opinion to himself, Mr Blair replies, “Because I care about your soul. I love you.”

“I don’t care if you love me! I don’t know you,” the man replies.

“It’s a selfish world and you need to repent,” Mr Blair says.

“Who’s the selfish one here mate?” the passenger says.

“Who’s the one who won’t shut up with their opinion? How selfish is that? You’re the selfish one because you won’t shut up. Can you not see that? You’re forcing your opinion on everyone in this train. We are asking you to shut the f**k up.”

The train then erupts with cheers.

A woman chimes in towards the end of the video, “Shut up, you sound like such ad***head.”

In the video intro, Mr Blair wrote, “I always do my best to show godly love. Hearts in Australia have become hardened in a way I’ve never seen. My soul was very grieved by what happened on this train.”

The preacher received a similarly frosty reception from Sydneysiders in other videos filmed around the CBD.

Malcolm Frawley, the passenger dubbed “book man”, later spoke to The Project to reveal why he felt the need to stand up to Mr Blair.

“I think the trigger for me was hearing this loud voice start to talk about our unborn children,” Mr Frawley said.

“And I wondered whether there might be some women in that carriage who might not be interested in a conversation about unborn children that was being conducted by a man. But for me faith is a personal, maybe even private thing. If you or I wanted to sit down over a coffee or beer and discuss our beliefs that might be fine but I don’t want them inflicted on me, in public, when I’m trying to read a book.”

According to his YouTube channel, Mr Blair has since returned to the US.

In a recent video, Mr Blair says he has received a court attendance notice for preaching in Times Square, New York.

World reacts to footage of Aussies confronting US preacher

Viewers were quick to condemn the preacher for his actions as the footage went viral on the hugely popular ‘PublicFreakout’ Reddit thread this week.

“An American preaching to Aussies how to live a good life in a society that is 1000x fairer, safer, happier and better than any American society,” observed one man.

“Aussies don’t call themselves Christians but they happen to live by Christian principles of charity, compassion and acceptance. The complete opposite of most American Christians.”

“He knows that on the street people can decide whether or not they can listen to his crap. On the train they don’t have a choice – they are basically his hostages,” added another.

“He’s dripping with American exceptionalism. The entitlement of thinking you can go to foreign lands and preach to a captive audience. All while ignoring local customs.” he wrote a third.

Others praised the commuter reading a book for his no-nonsense response to the preacher, affectionately dubbing him “Australian George Lucas.”

Wagatha Christie: big-budget drama joins race to bring libel trial to screen | television & radio

A big-budget drama featuring major characters in the Wagatha Christie case is to join the slew of documentaries already in production, as the race to bring to the small screen the rancorous details of the high court battle that ended on Friday hots up.

The row between two high-profile footballers’ wives, which ended last week when the judge ruled in favor of Coleen Rooney, is to be turned into television serial by one of Britain’s leading screenwriters. Debbie Horsfield, who adapted Poldark for the 2015-19 BBC series, is to write a drama chronicling the notorious public row between Rebekah Vardy, wife of leading Leicester goal scorer Jamie Vardy, and Coleen Rooney, wife of Wayne, the renowned former England player and, until last month, manager of Derby County.

The libel claim famously centered on a trap set for Vardy by her former friend Rooney, who suspected that stories about her personal life and family were being sold to the tabloid press. Restricted access to a private Instagram account that was followed by Vardy appeared to lead directly to items carried by the Sun newspaper. Vardy, 40, claimed she was wrongly publicly identified as the culprit and sued Rooney for libel.

High court judge Mrs Justice Karen Steyn ruled on Friday that Rooney’s accusation had been “substantially true”. Now the makers of A Very English Scandala drama about the Jeremy Thorpe case starring Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw, and the most recent A Very British Scandalstarring Paul Bettany and Claire Foy as the Duke and Duchess of Argyll, have confirmed to the observer that they are about to take on this high profile modern-day scandal.

Like the previous salacious disputes the production company, Blueprint Pictures, has fictionalized, the Vardy v Rooney scrap became a cause celebre, providing a distraction for many during a turbulent summer and creating a moral debate about the rights and wrongs of an exposing libel action.

Horsfield, who wrote BBC1’s 2018 the hair salon saga Age Before Beautyis working on the new TV drama for Blueprint Pictures alongside her former Poldark producer, Karen Thrussell. Likely key plot points will be the hatching of Rooney’s “Scousetrap” scheme to lure Vardy into revealing herself via Instagram, and the loss at sea of ​​a potentially incriminating mobile phone owned by Vardy’s agent, Caroline Watt, during a voyage around the coast of Scotland . Watt did not give evidence at the high court as she was judged by a forensic psychologist to be in an unfit state of mind.

Rooney, 36, is reportedly making a documentary chronicling her own attempts to turn detective. She is said to have been working with Lorton Entertainment, which also made the football documentary Rooney, on a show about the legal dispute, destined for an unknown broadcast platform. Netflix is ​​thought to be planning to screen a fly-on-the-wall documentary by Dorothy St Pictures, the filmmakers behind a recent Pamela Anderson documentary, which had cameras on Rooney during her court case this spring.

In addition, Channel 4 is working on a reconstruction of the significant courtroom scenes, filmed by production company Chalkboard, using the real court transcripts. Actors will play the parts of the key adversaries and their husbands.

Tom Popay, creative director at Chalkboard, has been quoted justifying the project: “The #WagathaChristie phenomenon has become one of the most talked-about moments in the history of social media. The court case that followed has captivated the entire nation but very few people actually got to see what happened inside the courtroom.”

The BBC is also set to broadcast a documentary, made by Curious Films, telling both sides of Rooney’s attempts at Instagram sleuthing. Reportedly on the point of beginning filming, it is an investigation into the social media warfare conducted by supporters of each faction, and will include testimony from “the Vardy camp” – possibly including Vardy herself.

And yet another production company, Optomen Television, is working on a documentary about the explosive case, although neither of the women is thought to be involved with the research for this programme.

As well as offering human conflict and high emotion, the Wagatha narrative offers a snapshot of British celebrity culture. Several moments in the court case highlighted the generational and educational chasms in wider British society. Rebekah Vardy did not know the phrase “Davy Jones’s locker”, while her barrister appeared to be unsure about how Instagram works.

Blueprint Pictures, behind the Horsfield script, is run by television executives Peter Czernin and Graham Broadbent, who met at university in Bristol. Together they have made the acclaimed and popular films In Bruges, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, Alongside their television hits, earning them both Oscars and Baftas. They set up Blueprint Pictures in 2005 and are shortly to bring out The Beautiful Gamewritten by Frank Cottrell Boyce and directed by Thea Sharrock, as well as The Banshees of Inisherinthe latest film from Irish playwright Martin McDonagh.

Johnny Depp suffers from erectile dysfunction, court documents claim

Johnny Depp suffers from erectile dysfunction, attorneys for Amber Heard claimed in newly unsealed court documents.

The actress’ legal team argued in a March 28 filing, obtained by Page Sixthat the purported medical malady may have contributed to her ex-husband’s allegedly violent behaviour.

“Though Mr. Depp would rather not disclose his erectile dysfunction condition, such condition absolutely is relevant to sexual violence, including Mr. Depp’s anger and use of a bottle to rape Amber Heard,” the documents alleged.

Depp has consistently denied Heard’s allegations of rape and violence.

Heard’s lawyers went on to claim that Depp’s supposed penile problem would make it “more probable” that he would become “angry or agitated” in encounters with the Aquaman star and cause him to “resort to a bottle.”

In May, Heard, 36, broke down in tears during the former couple’s defamation trial as she testified that the Pirates of the Caribbean star, 59, allegedly raped her with a liquor bottle and threatened to “carve up” her face with it during a March 2015 altercation.

“I didn’t know if the bottle he had inside me was broken,” she said, breathing heavily as she held back tears. “I couldn’t feel it. I couldn’t feel anything.”

According to the court documents, the alleged incident occurred in Australia during the same fight that left Depp with a severed finger — something he claimed on the stand happened when Heard flung a vodka bottle at him. The two had only gotten married a month earlier.

During a cross-examination, Depp’s lawyer grilled Heard about the alleged sexual assault, for which the Justice League star admitted she did not seek medical attention.

“As I have always said, I don’t remember exactly what happened first, or the sequence,” she said.

The unsealed documents also revealed text message exchanges between Depp and Marilyn Manson — who similarly has been accused of and denied sexual abuse — as well as the Edward Scissorhands star’s attempt to bring up his ex-wife’s “brief stint as an exotic dancer” at trial.

The jury ultimately awarded Depp $15 million ($A21.35 million) over claims he was defamed by a 2018 Washington Post op-ed in which Heard made allegations of sexual violence. She was awarded $2 million ($A2.85 million) over her claims that Depp’s lawyer had made false and damaging comments about her.

Depp’s team did not immediately respond to Page Six‘s request for comment on the erectile dysfunction allegation.

Kate and William to be welcomed ‘warmly’ by US amid major move ‘not like Sussexes!’ | Royal | News

Cele Otnes, a US professor of marketing specializing in how the Firm brands itself, predicted there would be lots of press coverage and crowds if the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were to focus their time State side – now home to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex . She said people in America understood the future King and Queen as the “future of the royal brand” which is “not the case for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry”.

Ms Otnes told Express.co.uk: “I think I can safely say that if they come, there will be no doubt they will be received warmly and there will be lots of press coverage —and crowds where allowed —accompanying their visit.

“People understand them as the future of the royal brand, and that certainly not the case for Meghan and Harry. “

Her comments come after Meghan and Harry’s biographer Omid Scobie said Prince William was set to follow in his brother Harry’s footsteps and ramp up efforts to increase his popularity in the US.

Prince William and Kate will visit Boston in December for the Earthshot Prize, their first trip to the US in eight years.

It’ll be their third time in America – in 2014, they visited New York and in 2011, they visited Los Angeles.

The news prompted speculation the couple would embark on a full blown US tour.

Mr Scobie added: “Sources tell me that preliminary conversations about a fundraising event – ​​similar to the $50,000-a-head dinner the couple hosted during eight years ago in New York – have already taken place.

“Recon, I’m also told, has also been scheduled for a number of royal engagements and activities for the couple in Boston and beyond. Perhaps even a trip to Washington DC.”

Meghan and Prince Harry live in California with their two children, Archie Harrison and Lilibet Diana after their sensational decision to quit as senior members of the Royal Family in 2020.
