HOLLYWOOD actress Charlize Theron has revealed she’s having the best sex of her life aged 49 – and said she recently had sex with a 26-year-old man.

The Mad Max star, who was in a relationship with actor Stuart Townsend from 2001 to 2009, has two adopted daughters and said she doesn’t want a partner until they’ve left home.

But she said being a mum hasn’t stopped her from having a sex life – and said she is into “weird s**t.”

Recalling a recent experience, she said: “I’ve probably had three one-night-stands in my entire life.

“But I did just recently f*** a 26 year old and it was really f***ing amazing.

“I’ve never done that. And I was like, ‘Oh, this is great. OK.”

Asked on the Call Her Daddy podcast if she is usually “down for a one night stand,” she replied: “Yes. I don’t have many of them. I’m sitting here sounding like I do.

“So when I do, I’m like, ‘Oh, f**k yeah, I should have done this in my twenties.’

“I was married from the time that I was like having sex to the time that I had my last relationship. Then I had children.

“Who has f***ing time for dates and shaving and waxing and makeup? And I’ve got two children that have to go to school.”

Continuing to talk about how great her sex life is now that she is almost 50, she said: “I’m having the kind of sex I never had in my twenties or in my thirties.

“That part has been really exciting. But I’m not missing a relationship.

“I’m not missing the partnership that I think people think you miss when you’re me.”

She continued: “I’m having sex now for the first time, like I never had before, is because I’m not in relationships.”

Charlize, who also dated Sean Penn, 64, from 2013 to 2015, has previously been spotted on celebrity dating app Raya, but said she tends to meet men through her friends.

She explained: “I am on the apps, but I don’t use the apps.

“So I have a few friends that are very, very good. And one of them I know is listening to this right now, who always is like, okay, you need to come here right now and you need to meet this person. And I’m very grateful for her.

I had a guy once ask me to make out with his nose, which was really, really probably one of the most bizarre asks ever.

“I have not been brave enough on a lot of her offers, but recently I have and it has paid off tremendously.”

Quizzed on her biggest dating disaster, she said: “Oh my God. I had a guy once ask me to make out with his nose, which was really, really probably one of the most bizarre asks ever.

“That was really gross. I would say aside from that, nobody’s ever asked me to do something that I was like, ‘Whoa, that’s really f***ing weird’. Like, I guess I like weird st.”

Charlize went on to defend being single and said she is happy being with her kids, without having a long-term partner in her life.

She continued: “With women, it’s always like, ‘Something must be wrong with her. She can’t keep a man.’

“I literally can’t imagine a man moving into our house and me sharing my closet. I just don’t see that happening.

Charlize Theron

“And it’s never part of the discussion of like, ‘Wow, she’s really living her truth.’ Like she’s living in her happiness. Like this is actually a choice that she made.

“I like want to just like look at them and just be like, ‘Do you know how f***ing great it is to live exactly how I want to live? To experience motherhood exactly how I wanted to experience it?’”

On her kids, she continued: “I love that I don’t have to share them with somebody. I love that I don’t have to run every f***ing thing by a guy.”

And speaking about how she has ruled out a relationship for the time being, she added: “I have tried dating and I can tell that no man’s moving into our house while my daughters are there.

“I literally can’t imagine a man moving into our house and me sharing my closet. I just don’t see that happening.

“But then I imagine being an empty nester and how that part of my life will be.

“And by then feeling like maybe I will feel like I want to be in a relationship.”

ONE of the best seaside towns in the UK is home to a very popular ice cream parlour.

BBC Good Food has found the crème de la crème of ice cream parlours around the country and Harbour Bar in Scarborough was rated very highly.

The inside is like stepping back in time to the 1950s[/caption]

Harbour Bar is found by the seafront on the road leading to the West Pier, and is kitted out with 1950s American-style decor.

It has unmissable red lettering, a diner looking bar with red booths and stools.

You can pick up tall ice cream sundaes from Bananarama, to Eton Mess, Chocolata and Mandarino.

The Harbour Bar is known for its ‘Mega Cones’ – which are a lot longer than your average ice cream cone.

They also serve toasted waffles topped with a range of ice cream and fruit. As for drinks, it has a selection of soda floats and milk shakes.

Harbour Bar was established in 1945 and has remained a family-owned business ever since.

Another reason as to why it’s such a good parlour is that the ice cream isn’t bought in, it’s churned in a small factory behind the shop.

Good Food described the ice cream parlour as being “big and brash, but hugely fun and buzzy.”

One visitor on Tripadvisor wrote “We heard about this place and absolutely HAD to visit. The place is amazing. It’s like a 1950s American ice cream parlour.”

“We decided on a Knickerbocker glory and the Pear Valentino both were excellent and we loved it. So we can definitely highly recommend this place and you MUST visit it when you come to Scarborough 10/10.”

Scarborough was also named one of the best UK seaside towns of 2025.

In April, Conde Nasté Traveller declared it to be one of the best in the country, and an essential summer stop for 2025.

The town has even been called ‘Scarbados’ thanks to two very long stretches of sandy beaches called North and South Bay.

Scarborough is one of the UK’s oldest seaside towns, and it has an ancient castle, spectacular cliffs and Tudor streets.

Vincent’s Pier is the longest in Scarborough and has a lookout, cafe, and restaurant.

It’s a great place to visit with affordable cafes like Seastrand which is inside the oldest Funicular railway station. 

Travel Reporter Helen Wright visited and found you can get a cup of tea and a flapjack for £3.50 – and she discovered the best spots for cheap parking.

There’s lots still to come for Scarborough, including the possible construction of an outdoor tidal lido at the top of Scarborough South Bay.

If approved, the pool would have sand running into it and a sheltered beach and bathing area for children.

Here are Sun Travel’s favourite seaside towns that are less than 90 minutes from London.

And the cheap UK seaside towns – where a day out for the whole family costs from just £25.

PEOPLE on the dole should not get the same budget pay bounce as pensioners while Ireland is at full employment, Tanaiste Simon Harris has claimed.

The Fine Gael leader today held talks with business leaders, trade unions and State agencies in Dublin to discuss the potential impact of Donald Trump’s tariffs on the Irish economy.

There is just one week left until deadline day for the introduction of punishing US tariffs on EU goods with negotiators locked in talks to try to secure a last minute deal to avoid an all-out trade war.

The meeting was told to expect a new norm of 10 per cent tariffs on goods being exported to the US regardless of the outcome of the EU US talks.

Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe said that the Trump tariffs will hit Irish businesses hard and could result in job losses and fewer jobs being created by inward investment from US companies.

However, the Finance Minister said Ireland’s economy will still continue to grow and the jobs market will remain strong with the country currently at full employment.

In their general election manifesto, Fianna Fail promised to increase all core welfare payments by €12 annually while Fine Gael committed to increasing the State pension to €350 over the lifetime of the government.

With businesses struggling to find workers to fill vacant positions, Tanaiste Simon Harris today indicated that the Government may freeze the jobseekers allowance at its current level instead of including it in any social welfare increases in the upcoming budget.

Asked if the Government will separate the jobseekers allowance from other welfare hikes in the budget, the Tanaiste told the Irish Sun: “I do always think there is merit in not looking at social welfare payments with uniformity across the board.

“We’ve been talking a lot about college fees the last couple of days unexpectedly perhaps but roughly speaking the equivalent of €1.20 or €1.25 on every social welfare payment is roughly the equivalent of reducing the college fees by €1,000.

“So budgets are all about choices. They are all about balance and there is only so much money in the pot so I will keep an open mind on that.

“I’m not convinced that you need to see as significant a rise in the dole as you do in the pension for example at a time when our country is in full employment and there’s lots of supports out there for people getting into work and there is other supports out there for people who can’t work for very many good reasons.

“That is my view but we will thrash all that out in the budget and there’s a long way to go.”

Government leaders have ruled out any cost of living bonuses for the upcoming budget as they plan to dial back spending due to concerns about the economic impact of the Trump tariffs.

NO BONUS PAYMENTS

The Budget 2025 package – the largest in the history of the State – was made up of a mixture of increased payments, 10 once-off lump sums for social welfare recipients, a minimum wage increase and tax changes.

It included two double Child Benefit payments handed out before Christmas, €400 extra for carers and €300 for those on Fuel Allowance.

Budget 2025 also provided an additional October cost-of-living double payment as well as the usual social welfare Christmas bonus.

But Donohoe and Public Expenditure Minister Jack Chambers previously admitted that they are reluctant to make any spending or taxation decisions in Budget 2026 that “create new risks”.

COLLEGE FEE ROW

This year’s lack of cost of living package has led to a row between Fianna Fail and Fine Gael over college fees which were temporarily lowered by €1,000 in the last budget but could rise back to €3,000 in the next budget unless action is taken.

Public Expenditure Minister Jack Chambers could not give a straight answer in the Dail today when asked how much college fees will be for students from September onwards.

Sinn Fein, the Social Democrats and even back bench Government TDs pressed for clarity on the future of college fees but the Dail was told that it would be a matter for budget negotiations

Higher Education Minister James Lawless said: “The indications are – and we haven’t entered budget discussions in earnest yet as we’re engaged in the national development plan at the moment which obviously will have a significant uplift in education and research as well – but the indications are that there won’t be a cost of living package this year.

“So all of us in any walk of life have to play the hands we’re dealt.”

Asked to clarify, the Minister said: “The once-off supports – and they were phrased very clearly as once-off supports – are not being provided for as it stands because there is no cost of living package being made available.

“That may change coming into the budget. It’s a matter for the Finance Minister more so than myself but that is what’s coming.”

LOVE Island’s Megan has blamed fellow Islanders for her treatment of Tommy, as she admitted to regretting some of her behaviour in the villa.

Last week Megan, along with Remell, was dumped after the public were asked to choose their favourite girl and boy.

Megan had a tense final week in the villa.

Fans were left unhappy after she ditched Tommy, who she had been with from the start, and move on with rugby lad Conor.

The pair shared secret snogs on the Terrace behind smitten Tommy‘s back, infuriating viewers at home.

Fans also turned on ‘nasty’ Megan after she appeared to be gleeful when Conor and Tommy rowed over her, even calling it “brilliant”.

But now the brunette stunner is keen to clear the air on what REALLY went down in the villa between the three of them.

Speaking to On Demand Entertainment on TikTok, Megan was asked if she would do anything differently, and she said: “I’d taken a breath.”

Appearing to blame her fellow Islanders for her actions, she said: “But you know when you hear something and you just see red, and I saw red for about four days, and then obviously, while I was seeing red, Connor swooped in, so it was just a really bad time.

“And of course you only see the hour out of the 24, so I know I’ve left things on good terms with Tommy, we obviously didn’t have a lot of time on our side.

“Well, I like to think of time as if the essence, we could have been mates. But no, like, it was fine. When you see red like that, someone needs to sit you down and say, girl.”

Continuing, Megan said: “I felt like the girls were seeing where I was coming from, so I think that’s why I got more wound up, because I was like, well if they’re all seeing, why isn’t the gentleman?

“But when you’re in there, emotions are high. When you hear he said, she said stuff, it just winds you up even more.”

‘FIX’ CLAIMS

Megan was dumped last Friday, but following her elimination some fans accused bosses of “fixing” the public dumping, in a bid to get rid of her after all the Conor and Tommy drama.

The Irish star found herself in the bottom three girls, along with then revealed as Shakira, Megan and Toni.

And the bottom three boys in the firing line were Ben, Harry and Remell.

Shockingly, Megan and Remell received the least votes from the public and were then immediately dumped from the villa.

But Love Island fans came up with a theory about why Megan was the one to be dumped from the villa out of the girls.

They think because of the public turning on Megan over the last few days, bosses were keen to see the Irish beauty leave the villa.

Taking to social media, one said: “I’m guessing the producers didn’t like Megan.

“I bet they wouldn’t have allowed the other Megan to go, had she been bottom.

“Sometimes they let the public votes decide other times they let the Islanders choose… either way it’s very very manipulated.”

Another echoed this “Basically the producers were happy to let Megan go, otherwise they’d have had the Islanders pick.

“They would’ve 100% saved Megan.

“I think they wanted to get rid of her once they saw her unhinged and abusive behaviour.”

But middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis seemingly revealed the Liverpudlian would be back in action on the undercard of his UFC 319 title defence against Khamzat Chimaev on August 16.

DDP told Ahmed Amwell during a recent trip to Dubai: “It’s gonna be a big card.

“The co-main event is Paddy Pimblett and Justin Gaethje.”

Du Plessis’ comments spread like wildfire and quickly came to the attention of Pimblett, who didn’t mince his words on the matter.

The former Cage Warriors featherweight champion said: “Yous are mad if you think I’m fighting in August.”

MMA fans around the world are hoping Pimblett’s next fight will be against new lightweight champion, Ilia Topuria

The pair, who have beef dating back to 2021, took part in a heated face-off last weekend following Topuria’s brutal first-round KO of Charles Oliveira at UFC 317.

Security had to separate the duo after Topuria SHOVED his long-time nemesis, who revelled in the moment after he left the octagon.

Their impromptu face-off has set the table for a grudge match over four years in the making.

But UFC supremo Dana White has seemingly already shot down the prospect of the two stars clashing next.

He said: “I don’t know who the hell let him in there. That should’ve never happened.

“Let’s start there. I was already back in my room, or that would’ve never happened.”

He added: “(Van) is the No. 1 contender, and I just said the winner of that fight will get a title shot, so obviously the fans wanted it, too.

“My thing with Topuria is his wife and kid are in the octagon.

“That’s not the fight. It’s just, yeah. It shouldn’t happen.

“That’s not really what we do. I don’t really give a sh*t if it’s fun to watch or not. That shouldn’t have happened.

“Plus, he wins a second title in a higher division. It was a bad call by whoever let him in there.”

YOU couldn’t wear a skirt in the 90s without one of these dangling from your hips.

And millennials all hoped it would be the last we’d see of the disk belts, but Gen-Z seems to have other plans.

The teens mum was left horrified[/caption]

The giant belts which would often ping off at the most awkward of times have made a comeback in high street stores.

The likes of New Look, Primark, PLT and Boohoo are all stocking it.

And one mum was horrified when her teen daughter picked up to buy.

Taking to TikTok, Nina, wife of the famous SpudBros founder, shared her daughter’s reaction to the 90s accessory.

She told her mum she wanted to buy it for her summer holiday as Nina looked on mortified.

“You do realise that when I was about 14 that is what we used to wear,” she said.

“We thought we were really cool and then we bullied them ever since.

“Now they’ve made this comeback and you’re saying it’s nice?!”

“They were not lying when they said fashions come back around. I need to find a photo of me in one of these,” Nina captioned the post.

While Nina and her daughter’s opinion on the belt differed, many agreed with Nina in the comments.

The clip soon went viral on her TikTok account @ninadixon28 with over 2.5 million views and 113k likes

Many were horrified to see it make its way back into stores.

One person wrote: “I had one in every colour. I used to wear them with long rara skirts in the early 2000s.”

Another commented: “My mum used to say fashion repeats itself and it’s true.”

“The trauma from the disk belt,” penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: “The late 90s and 00s has entered the chat!!”

“It is totally giving PTSD hahaha,” claimed a fifth

Someone else added: “Oh no they are not back are they.”

AFTER losing three stone on fat jabs, Emmie Barwise loved nothing more than picking out a stylish outfit to showcase her svelte new figure.

However, there was one accessory she wasn’t expecting to add to her wardrobe.

As well as figure-hugging dresses and thigh skimming skirts, Emmie was forced to start wearing panty liners daily.

Aside from her astonishing weight-loss, incontinence has been an unwelcome side effect of taking Mounjaro.

The 34-year-old explains: “It would happen when I laughed, coughed or sneezed.

“I wet myself during one date, I never imagined that could happen with the jab.

“It was so frustrating, I finally felt confident enough to go on dates but I spent the whole time worrying it would happen.

“It was humiliating – I was a hot girl who couldn’t pull.”

Events manager and single mum Emmie, who lives in Manchester with her 12-year-old daughter, says the unfortunate side-effect made her self-conscious  

She admits: “I constantly worried that I smelt of wee.

“It was really off-putting and something I never imagined I would have to deal with.”

Emmie says she began struggling with her weight last year when she started comfort eating during the winter months.

She says: “I loved a good takeaway, a bottle of wine and chocolates.

“It was so cold last year, I found myself indulging way too much.”

By Christmas, the mum realised she’d gained three stone in just two months.

“As well as my main job, I also do catalogue modelling,” she says.

“I knew I needed to lose weight as I noticed I was losing work since gaining weight.”

A mortified Emmie hit the gym but found it hard to shift the pounds.

“I had friends who were using weight loss jabs, I’d heard good things and decided to give them a go,” she says.

In January, Emmie bought Mounjarno on a private prescription, paying £150 a month for the jabs.

“As soon as I started taking the jabs my food noise disappeared for the first time in my life,” she says.

But while Emmie quickly noticed her weight falling off, she soon became aware of her unfortunate side effect too.

She says: “In the first four weeks, I lost seven pounds and felt amazing.

“But around the same time, I had been chatting to a man at a bar when I realised I had wet myself.

“It was just a few drops, but I fled to the loo with my jacket around my waist.”

I even considered adult nappies for an extreme emergency

Emmie Barwise

Emmie’s rapid weight loss in the first four weeks meant a rapid loss of tone around her pelvic floor muscles.

A study by HealthCentral.com revealed Ozempic or semaglutide can be linked to stress urinary incontinence.

This means the pelvic floor muscles can’t hold up under pressure when you cough, sneeze or laugh because the drug’s rapid weight and muscle loss, especially in pelvic muscles, lowers pelvic support and increases leakage risk.

Emmie says: “The first time it happened, I convinced myself I had drunk too much.

“When it happened at work, I bought period panty liner pads to help control my pee problem.

“I even considered adult nappies for an extreme emergency. 

“I had no idea that this was a possible side effect of the jab, it’s definitely not one that people talk about.”

In a bid to ease her embarrassing symptoms, Emmie immediately began doing her pelvic floor exercises three times a day. 

She says: “I use Kegel balls, which come in different weights with strings attached. 

“You pop inside your vagina and practice holding them for different periods of time.

“It took four weeks of training, but my symptoms have finally eased up.”

While urinary incontinence might have been a negative side effect, Emmie has found an added bonus aside from her weight loss.

The oddball side effects created havoc in my life, but I got through it and I am back to feeling like my best self

Emmie Barwise

“The jab has increased by sex drive and my orgasms are stronger than ever,” she says.

“I consider that an added bonus.”

According to research, the GLP-1 drugs can also alter autonomic nervous system responses and increase blood circulation, especially to your pubic area, which could explain Emmie’s heightened sensitivity and increased sex drive. 

After six months of using Mounjarno, Emmie has now lost 3st 1lb and has no regrets.

She says: “I don’t regret using the drug to fast-track my weight loss.

“It’s not cheating, it’s using what works for you.

“The oddball side effects created havoc in my life, but I got through it and I am back to feeling like my best self.”
