CLARKSON’S Farm star Harriet Cowan traded her muddy wellies for a glamorous dress in a stunning new photoshoot for Country Life.

The 24-year-old became an instant hit with viewers as she mucked in at Diddly Squat while Kaleb Cooper took some time away from the show.

Now, she’s brushed off the mud and hay to reveal her fashion credentials.

In the new edition of Country Life, beaming Harriet poses in a summer dress and knee-high cowgirl boots as she perches on a tractor tyre.

She’s joined by beautiful pooch Tyke, who obediently stands on its hind legs beside her.

The magazine delves into Harriet’s life at her family farm in Belper, Derbyshire.

Jeremy Clarkson recently clarified why Harriet was brought onto the farm as speculation mounted over Kaleb’s future.

He said: “What happened is this, he went away on his speaking tour, for a couple of months because he imagined that after four years, I’d be able to manage on my own.

” I didn’t – I made a complete mess of everything and had to bring in a young girl called Harriet.

“Harriet is brilliant and looked after the fort until he got back.

“That is it – that’s the story!”

Fans are desperate to know if Harriet will remain on the farm when Kaleb returns and, so far, she’s keeping coy, telling them: “Hmm we will have to see.”

Riverside pubs gardens are the ultimate place to cool down from the heat the UK has recently been experiencing[/caption]

Tamesis Dock, London

Located on the River Thames, near Vauxhall, Tamesis Dock is a converted 1930’s Dutch barge.

Whilst permanently moored, the venue hosts live music and events, with both indoor space and an outdoor deck with views of the Thames and city skyline.

The Boatman, Windsor

Dubbed as Windsor’s “only proper pub on The Thames”, according to Tripadvisor, The Boatman has views across the river and Eton Bridge.

There is an all-weather terrace in case the weather takes a turn, but it is ideal for the sunny, hot weather the UK is currently experiencing.

The outside area also has plenty of space, with seating for up to 100 people.

The pub is also dog-friendly, so suitable for the entire family – furry friends included.

The Ship, London

A popular spot among Gen Z in London, The Ship sits on the River Thames in Wandsworth.

The outdoor garden is large, with great views across the river and fairy lights hanging overhead to keep the space bright into the night.

The pub has been on the banks of the River Thames since 1786 and serves a large variety of London craft beers, premium ales, spirits and wines.

White Cross, Richmond

Claimed to be Richmond’s most iconic pub on Tripadvisor, the White Cross often garners attention for its rather unusual habit of flooding and guests being handed wellies to access the pub.

The spot boasts views of the Thames, as well as great sunsets in the evening.

Tank and Paddle, York

Having undergone a £400,000 upgrade, the Tank and Paddle in York has something for everyone.

From dog-friendly to showing live music and sports, the pub is loved for having an industrial charm with modern features including a sun trap balcony.

Castle Barge, Newark-on-Trent

Converted into a pub in 1980, the Castle Barge used to be a grain barge that operated between Hull and Gainsborough.

Now, the vibrant spot sits on the river and serves up a range of different dishes and drinks.

Brewhouse & Kitchen, Nottingham

Whilst from the front the Brewhouse & Kitchen in Nottingham may just look like a pub on the side of the road, at the back it boasts a sleek garden overlooking the river and Trent Bridge.

With over 50 craft beers, it is a great place to watch the world go by.

The building used to be a station for the local police force too, and even has a house bitter named the Constable, to honour this.

The Tickled Trout, Wye

Standing on the banks of the River Stour for more than 400 years, The Tickled Trout boasts typical Kentish architecture with ‘al fresco’ drinks and dining.

The picturesque garden sits almost level with the water and features an expansive lawn.

If you lucky, some swans may be paddling nearby.

The Pandora Inn, Cornwall

Located near Penryn in Cornwall, The Pandora Inn has previously been ranked as among the most stunning beer gardens in the UK.

According to The Times, it is one of the UK’ s tip eight riverside pub gardens with a “wonderful setting beside Restronguet Creek, a tributary of the River Fal”.

The Maltsters Arms, Devon

Sat on the River Dart, The Maltsters Arms in Tuckenhay, Devon, is a great spot to moor a boat and hop out to enjoy some food and a tipple.

The pub dates back to the 18th century and recently announced that former MasterChef: The Professionals champion, Anton Piotrowski, joined them as their executive chef.

The Fisherman’s Cot, Devon

Sitting on the banks of the River Exe in Bickleigh, Devon, The Fisherman’s Cot is a cosy inn with a picturesque riverside location.

Visitors can enjoy the garden, sat right next to the river itself, and complete with a number of deck chairs and fairy lights.

Double Locks, Devon

For those who love to kayak, this is the spot for you – as you can paddle straight up to Double Locks pub in Devon.

The pub is dog-friendly, with a number of different walks and trails around the spot too.

But the pub garden is the real treat, sitting on the edge of the Exe-Estuary Trail.

There is an abundance of space and seating as well.

The Coombe Cellars, Devon

Overlooking the Teign Estuary, The Coombe Cellars in Devon is the ultimate sunset spot.

The outside space is expansive and allows for great al fresco dining in the summer as you watch the boats bob by on the river.

The bar also serves up some great cocktails.

The Ferry Inn, Salcombe

The Ferry Inn in Salcombe sits right above the water, with a pretty walled garden which is met by the lapping waves of the river.

The dog-friendly spot also has a live sports bar area for those who don’t want to miss out on the latest football game.

Throughout the year, the pub also hosts special events and live music.

One visitor even said: “What a wonderful place – we could have easily been in the south of France.”

The Compleat Angler, Buckinghamshire

Also sat on the River Thames but further away from the capital is The Compleat Angler in Buckinghamshire.

The riverside spot has a restaurant too, that overlooks the Thames.

The Times recently explained that the pub “was one of the earliest guesthouses in the country, yet was at risk of overtourism even in Dickens’ day — the writer commented in his Dictionary of the Thames that it was often booked out by boating parties.”

Hope & Anchor, Herefordshire

Another spot on the River Wye, is the Hope & Anchor in Ross-on-Wye, in Herefordshire.

The waterside boozer is a great stop off for those enjoying activities on the river and boasts a large beer garden on the riverbank.

In the evenings, the pub often hosts live music in its bandstand.

The garden also has the Hut, which serves up wood-fired pizzas and cakes.

The Fiddichside Inn, Scotland

Located on the outskirts of the quaint village of Cragellachie, The Fiddichside Inn sits on the River Fiddich.

The spot is known for fishing and walking, making the pub the ideal place to enjoy a refreshing pint after your adventure.

A modern balcony and sloped garden overhang the river, all next to a pretty brick bridge.

The Distillery, Birmingham

Right on the canal, The Distillery in Birmingham has a great outdoor terrace to head to when the sun is shining.

The boozer is known as the city’s first gin distillery and is just a short walk from the popular Brindley Place and The Arena.

The venue has a vibrant gin bar upstairs and a cosy pub downstairs.

The outdoor area features numerous tables, all resting on cobblestones.

These are the best pubs in London – by the locals who drink in them.

STUNNING new Love Island bombshell Bilikis Azeez secretly dated a former villa hunk – and he was blindsided by her entering the show.

Last night viewers watched the new sexy Islander join the villa, but now it’s been revealed that she already had a link to the ITV2 dating show.

Dami is still loved up with his Love Island 2022 girlfriend, Indiyah Polack[/caption]

Along with Ryan Bannister, Bilikis is the latest bombshell brought in by producers to stir things up.

But it seems she may already have insider knowledge on the show, as she used to date a past Love Island hunk.

It has come to light that Bilikis, also known as Billykiss, used to date former Islander Dami Hope.

The hunk in trunks appeared on season 8 of the show, which aired in 2022.

Also entering the show as a bombshell, Dami immediately coupled up with Indiyah Polack – who is still his girlfriend to this today.

But before Indiyah, it’s been reported that he dated new bombshell Bilikis.

It’s also been revealed he had no idea that his ex was going on Love Island.

A source told the Daily Mail: “Bilikis and Dami have known each other for years after both growing up in Dublin.

“They dated a long time ago but still run a party business together so Dami not given a heads up on her villa entrance may not have gone down well.

“Their former fling is guaranteed to be discussed on Aftersun given Dami’s girlfriend Indiyah is a regular panellist.”

Dami and Indiyah have been going strong since they met on Love Island three ago, and are the only couple from that series who are still together.

SAVAGE TWIST

Meanwhile, earlier today The Sun exclusively revealed how tonight’s Love Island will see two Islanders get dumped in another brutal Island vote.

The savage twist follows on from the arrival of Bilikis and Ryan and has left the OG Islanders reeling.

Last night saw the two bombshells arrive and go on dates with Dejon and Conor, as well as Shakira and Toni.

The Sun is keeping quiet on how the vote plays out – and who is sent packing – but the action will play out on tonight’s show.

A source said: “Execs continue to throw twists and turns into the series and no one saw this one coming.

“The cast were reeling after this shock move and one ousted Islander in particular will be much missed.”

THE Dalai Lama has reignited a long-standing feud with the Chinese government after he confirmed he will appoint his own successor.

Xi Jinping’s communist regime has warned only they will get the final say over who takes over as the next Buddhist leader.

The ageing Buddhist leader has suffered from several health complications in recent years[/caption]

The announcement from the Dalai Lama on Wednesday put an end to decades of uncertainty over the future of the Tibetan spiritual religion.

In recent years, speculation had grown that the 14th Dalai Lama currently in power could be the final one.

Just four days before his 90th birthday, the head of the religion announced: “I am affirming that the institution will continue.”

Tibetan tradition holds that the soul of a senior Buddhist monk is reincarnated in the body of a child upon his death.

It often takes years to identify the child who is said to be the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama.

His recorded video message also appeared to take aim at China as he said: “No one else has any such authority to interfere in this matter.”

The Chinese have tried to muscle their way into conversations around the Dalai Lama across the past few decades.

Beijing sees the spiritual leader as a “separatist” who is seeking independence from Tibet – therefore weakening China’s grip on the region.

The Chinese army first invaded Tibet to bring them under the control of the Communist Party in 1959.

Since then, the 14th Dalai Lama, born Tenzin Gyatso, has been living in exile in Dharamsala, a Himalayan town in Himachal Pradesh in northern India.

The Nobel Peace Prize-winning Buddhist leader has traveled the world to advocate for nonviolence and the “true” autonomy and cultural and religious freedom of Tibetans.

Angered by the Dalai Lama’s comments, China has been trying to bring elements of the Tibetan religious institution under state control.

They also want to absorb the people into one nation around the Communist Party.

The Chinese government has reportedly assumed they will select the next Dalai Lama.

Beijing insists the next Dalai Lama needs government approval before being declared with the best way of deciding being through a lot-drawing system.

But Beijing’s hopes appear to have been dashed as the sitting leader gathered senior Tibetan Buddhist monks in Dharamsala today and said his office has the “sole authority” over the next reincarnation.

He said he consulted with the heads of Tibetan Buddhist traditions and other religious leaders to search for and recognize a successor as per the traditions.

He has said in the past that his successor would be born in a “free country”, indicating that the next spiritual head could come from Tibetan exiles.

Of the 140,000 Tibetan exiles, half live in India.

He has also expressed being open to a successor who isn’t a child, or not a man, in a break with centuries of tradition.

The Dalai Lama was born Lhamo Dhondup in 1935 to a family of buckwheat and barley farmers in what is now the northwestern Chinese province of Qinghai.

At the age of two, he was deemed by a search party to be the 14th reincarnation of Tibet’s spiritual and temporal leader after identifying several of his predecessor’s possessions.

Nine years after he assumed his position, fears grew that the Dalai Lama could be kidnapped by Beijing.

A subsequent crackdown by the Chinese army forced him to escape disguised as a common soldier from the palace in Lhasa, where his predecessors had held absolute power.

In 2011, he announced he would relinquish his political role, handing over those responsibilities to an elected leader for the Tibetan government-in-exile.

Penpa Tsering was appointed as he said today Tibetans from around the world made an earnest request with single-minded devotion that the position of the Dalai Lama should continue for the “benefit of all sentient beings in general and Buddhist in particular.”

He said in a statement: “In response to this overwhelming supplication, His Holiness has shown infinite compassion and finally agreed to accept our appeal on this special occasion of his 90th birthday.”

Tsering also warned China not to meddle in the decision-making process of the successor due to it being a unique Tibetan Buddhist tradition.

“We strongly condemn the Peoples Republic of China’s usage of reincarnation subject for their political gain, and will never accept it,” he added.

His appearance in the Beverly Hills Cop franchise created some of the most memorable and hilarious scenes

The star was seen strolling around Los Angeles in grey t-shirt, black shorts and a pair of sliders.

He looked very different to his appearance on the hit movies – but have you worked out who he is yet?

Well it’s none other than Bronson Pinchot, who played art dealer Serge in Beverly Hills Cop, Beverly Hills Cop III, and the latest instalment Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.

Bronson went for a casual look as he stepped out in a earlier this week.

He showed off his silver tresses and dark moustache – looking miles away from his role in the cop movies.

The actor starred alongside Hollywood legend Eddie Murphy, as he helps Detroit cop Axel investigate the murder of his best friend.

Bronson reprised his role for the third instalment, where Axel returns to Beverly Hills after his boss is murdered and discovers evidence linking the killer to a California amusement park called Wonder World.

The Serge star then returned for one more appearance in the 2024 reboot, where Axel takes on another investigation after his daughter’s life is threatened.

Bronson is also known for his role as Balki Bartokomous, on the 1980s sitcom Perfect Strangers and 1997 series Step By Step.

He also starred as Principal Hawthorne on Netflix’s Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and most recently a recurring role in Neflix series The Residence.

In 2021, Bronson showcased his new slimmed-down figure after losing 60 pounds during the pandemic.

He shared that it took him just six months to lose the weight.

Bronson told Page Six the desire to embark on a health journey came after seeing a photo of himself he didn’t like.

He stumbled upon a picture of himself from his time competing on Battle of the Network Stars in 2017, which saw actors going up against each other in various athletic games.

“There was an old fat guy,” he recalled of what he thought upond seeing the photo.

This turning point came just a couple of months into lockdown, and he decided in May 2020 to make a change and work on his health and fitness.

In just six months, he dropped 60 pounds.

He credited a lot of healthy eating for helping him shed teh weight.

After getting rid of all the junk food at his home, he explained: “Then I just put healthy food in the house and I said, ‘OK, puppy, you can have whatever’s there.’”

He then shared before-and-after photos of himself, featuring a photo of him in a cobalt blue long-sleeve and shorts combo on Battle of the Network Sttars and present-day one of him in a T-shirt and shorts.

He captioned the update post: “Me. Before self-designed healthy plant-based eating program & 20 seconds ago.”

The actor added to fans on Instagram of what led him to get healthier: “I looked at myself shortly after my 61st birthday in May and was truly appalled at where I had let my bad habits & pandemic stress lead me.” 

He said he now feels “light, flexible, healthy, hydrated & confident.”

THIS is the shocking moment a driver was punched in the face and wrestled to the floor by a cop in a “road rage” row.

Tree surgeon Shane Price has also now won a whopping £100,000 payout in compensation after saying he was left “mentally traumatised” following his clash with Inspector Jonathan Mellor.

Insp Mellor then pinned the driver to the floor while his terrified wife watched on[/caption]

The cop, who had more than 30 years of service, punched the driver in the face and pushed him to the floor before stamping on his foot in the horrifying scenes on the A46 in Lincolnshire on May 26, 2021.

Dramatic footage shows Insp Mellor and Shane arguing after pulling up on the side of the road before their confrontation turned violent.

The cop can be seen grabbing Shane by his arm and then by his neck as he throws him towards the side of the road.

As the officer holds Shane by the side of the road, his horrified wife watched on from inside their vehicle, filming the cop.

Tensions begin to rise as the pair discuss why Shane was pulled over, with the driver ordering Insp Mellor to “remove his hand” from close to Shane’s throat.

After Shane pushes the copper away, Insp Mellor launches a sudden attack at the tree surgeon, punching him in the face.

Shane’s wife can be heard shouting at the officer as the pair tussle, with the driver repeatedly exclaiming: “What are you doing?” towards Insp Mellor.

The cop can be seen hitting Shane in the face, before then stamping on his foot – which Shane had told him was injured – and using foul language.

At one point, the officer even tells Shane: “I’m going to take you to the f***ing ground” and “You’ve been f***ing pulled, haven’t you?”

Insp Mellor was charged with common assault for the attack but was found not guilty in 2022.

However, a police disciplinary hearing in January found his behaviour amounted to gross misconduct – adding he would have been sacked if he had not already retired.

Shane told the panel he had been left in pain and was “mentally traumatised” by the horrific fight.

Insp Mellor argued he had punched Shane as a “distraction technique” before pinning him to the floor, reports the Mirror.

The pair had pulled over at the side of the road, following Shane’s request, and after the tree surgeon accused the cop of taking a picture of him while behind the wheel.

Insp Mellor, who was in his own car and on shift as a duty inspector, was wearing a black civilian jacket, covering his police uniform.

Liz Briggs, representing Lincolnshire Police, said the men appeared to “grapple with one another” with Shane heard to be stating repeatedly, “What are you doing?”.

Shane has been awarded £100,000 in compensation following Insp Mellor’s shocking behaviour[/caption]

SWNS

Hunter Gray, representing Insp Mellor, said a punch to Shane’s face and a stamp to his foot were a “recognised distraction technique” to “take control of Shane” due to his “increased agitation”.

He described it as a “road rage” incident and questioned whether the couple were “looking for trouble” when they asked the officer to pull over.

Insp Mellor told the hearing he didn’t take any photos, adding his actions were to “create a space where I’m in control of him and out the way of traffic”.

He also claimed that if he had punched Shane with “full force”, it would have “knocked him out”.

The disciplinary panel rejected claims of self-defence, saying the public would be “appalled” to learn of his behaviour.

It also dismissed Insp Mellor’s claims that Shane was aggressive towards him or that he was trying to protect him from stepping into the dual carriageway.

In addition to Shane receiving a six-figure compensation package, he also had his legal costs paid for, according to the BBC.

Insp Mellor, on the other hand, was found to have breached professional standards of force, discreditable conduct, respect and courtesy.

It also found that the threatening and abusive language used by Insp Mellor was “entirely unjustified”.

Jennifer Ferrario, the legally qualified chairwoman of the panel, said the panel found the copper’s actions in punching and stamping on Shane, as well as restraining him on the ground, to be “entirely unnecessary, unreasonable and disproportionate”.

Lincolnshire Police declined to make any further statement following the payment.

AN ex EastEnders star has revealed that her hair has fallen out amid her chronic health battle.

Former Lucy Beale star Melissa, 32, was diagnosed with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) after experiencing “horrible nausea” in 2023.

Melissa was diagnosed with SIBO and has since experienced a whole host of health issues[/caption]

She has lost a lot of weight and now her hair is falling out ‘in clumps’[/caption]

Since battling SIBO, the former Walford resident has shed weight unintentionally, with the results of this now visible in more ways than just her slender figure and ribs that show.

Melissa has lost a lot of her hair, and has now opened up about this and how greatly it is weighing on her.

Sharing two snaps, one from August 2023, and one from June 2025, Melissa got candid about the hair loss she has experienced.

“I wanna talk about hair (again),” she said in the lengthy post.

She then explained how when she was making an Instagram reel with her sister the other day and looking at old snaps, she was able to compare “just how much” her illness has changed her hair.

“It’s always been super fine and fairly thing,” she said, adding, “But the difference since becoming unwell is actually WILD.

“I’ve lost length (no this isn’t the result of a haircut), density, moisture, and gloss. All the great things basically.”

Melissa continued: “My hair and body aren’t getting the nutrients they need to thrive, and on top of that, the treatments are stressful on the body, even if ultimately they are doing good.

“And one surefire way to lose hair is stress – physical or emotional will do it, and SIBO has given me both.

“The fact that I’ve managed to stop the hair falling out is absolutely great, but I have a very long way to go and I have to remind myself that it’s not going to be overnight, especially with so many things actively working against me,” she added.

She then urged how she is “depending” on her hair growth journey.

“I’m not some girl who already has think hair, or loses a few strands when she brushes, or who just wants a bit of length.

“I’m someone whose hair refuses to grow, has fallen out in literal clumps, and who is willing to try anything to stop it.

“Basically, you can trust me not to bullsh*t you, and just know that nobody is more invested in my journey than me,” she concluded.

‘THERE’S NO JOY’

Last year, Melissa opened up about her unintentional weight loss exclusively to The Sun.

“Obviously, I’ve lost quite a lot of weight this year,” Melissa began, adding: “But absolutely none of that has been through choice. None of it. Like I’m back in my pre-pregnancy jeans.”

‘She added: “But there’s no joy,” noting: “I don’t enjoy the fact that that’s happened at all in the way that you know, that’s like a goal for a lot of people.

“A) It was never a goal for me. But B) this is the complete antithesis of whatever I’ve ever wanted with my body.

“So that’s been tricky for sure. And then also, just on top of that, like my skin and my hair has been like affected.

“Now I’m dealing with feelings of, you know, not enjoying the way that I look, which is frustrating because I’ve done such a lot of work to get me to a place where.”

And it was case of music greats past and present in attendance as play on the outside courts was delayed by the bad weather.

That is because Olivia Rodrigo was also invited to the tennis as a guest of the club, just three days after headlining the final night of Glastonbury.

And there was plenty of stars from the sporting world, too.

Current England manager Thomas Tuchel headed to SW19 for the first time since taking on the job from Gareth Southgate – who was at Wimbledon on Monday.

But another predecessor, Roy Hodgson, also headed to South-West London on Wednesday alongside wife Sheila.

Diver Tom Daley – used to the water – proved he is just as capable at turning out a fashionable number as he is at twisting and turning into the pool.

Golfer Tommy Fleetwood opted for a shimmering grey suit and tie paired with grey loafers.

And actor Dominic Cooper defied his 47 years by dazzling in a brilliant sky-blue suit.

RUTHLESS Arsenal target Viktor Gyokeres has reportedly dumped his model girlfriend in an effort to “sever all ties” to Portugal.

The Sporting Lisbon superstar, 27, is wanted by the Gunners after scoring 97 goals in just two seasons.

The Arsenal target wants to ‘sever all ties’ to Portugal and his club Sporting Lisbon[/caption]

Gyokeres is desperate to quit his club for the Premier League, with Manchester United and former boss Ruben Amorim also interested.

But Sporting are refusing to let him leave for less than £70million.

Gyokeres has been left incensed by their demands after insisting he had a gentleman’s agreement for a lower price.

And the Sweden international is now refusing to return for Sporting’s pre-season in a bid to force through an exit.

However, Gyokeres has taken his desire to leave to new heights after reportedly axing Portuguese girlfriend Ines Aguiar.

The actress and model started dating Gyokeres at the start of 2024 before the couple went public several months later.

Earlier this season Ines was caught on camera “promising” she would convince her man to remain in Lisbon.

But Corrieo Da Manha claims they have now gone their separate ways after Gyokeres called time on the relationship.

BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS

Speculation started when Ines did not accompany him to the wedding of Sporting teammate Morten Hjulmand, who was marrying her friend Emilie Sofie Nissen.

Gyokeres then jetted off on holiday by himself to Mykonos, while Ines headed alone to Formentera.

Now, it’s claimed that Gyokeres was the one to break things off in an attempt to “sever all his ties” to Portugal and thus allowing him the freedom to join Arsenal.

A source said: “Viktor doesn’t want anything that ties him to Portugal, especially because he has already decided that he will not continue at Sporting next season.

“Before going on holiday, he spoke to Ines and explained what he felt.

“She was also prepared in a certain way, although it was something that was difficult for her because she liked him a lot.”
