Dame Laura Kenny on the highs and lows post-pregnancy
Dame Laura Kenny is speaking out on the highs and lows of post-pregnancy body image after a difficult first public appearance at Wimbledon Free weekly newsletter Join our weekly YourWorld newsletter for updates, behind-the-scenes insights from our editors and your chance to shape what's next.

Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... The 33-year-old gave birth to her third child and first daughter, Lily, in early May and has since returned to work and public events, including an appearance alongside husband Jason at the Wimbledon Championships earlier this month. Kenny admitted that it wasn't all sunshine and roses in the lead-up to the event, struggling to find a dress that she felt comfortable in so soon after giving birth, which would also allow her to feed her daughter during the day. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Posting to her 221k followers on Instagram, the five-time Olympic champion opened up about the mental and emotional toll being a mother to a newborn can have on you and was overwhelmed to see such an incredible response from others in a similar position. Dame Laura Kenny in her role as President of Commonwealth Games England "I find it hugely important to post about this stuff, especially from a women's point of view," she said. "We actually looked at the digital response and there were 1.5 million views and 86% were female on that post alone. "That's why it's so important, and that's why I posted it, because I want every other mum that's sitting at home to know how I was feeling. "You see a nice happy photo of us at Wimbledon, but that wasn't the backstory. The backstory was me actually quite upset, trying to find an outfit because I felt like I didn't look like me, and I'm having to put myself in the limelight, and find a dress that will let me feed my child. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad "Yes, going to Wimbledon is a choice, but it is also something that I wanted to do, and I shouldn't have to give that up." Kenny retired from her career in the velodrome in March 2024 and has since stepped into a new role as President of Commonwealth Games England. It is a role she took on at seven months pregnant and one that she has taken in stride, having already attended her first board meeting less than 12 weeks after giving birth. And even though Lily might admittedly be the easiest of her three children when it comes to sleeping, Kenny knows that returning to work so quickly is hardly the norm for most mothers. She also noted that it is something she enjoys, having always embraced chaos in the workplace. "Some people think it's a bit mental coming back so soon," she said. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad "I mean, I filmed a podcast when she was just two days old, and it didn't even occur to me that it was kind of mental. "Our line of work is a bit random, and it is a bit all over the place, and so it's always been like that. "I trained with Albie, and he just travelled the world with us so for me, I've actually never known any different and so I'm just enjoying it again. "I'm not going to say it's not difficult, but I like the mayhem and absolute carnage." Kenny's new role is quickly heating up, with today marking one year to go until the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games. It is a milestone that the former track cyclist knows well from her time as an athlete, believing that it was a key moment for athletes to nail down their targets. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad "From an athlete's point of view, you can think that the Games are coming around really fast, and it can almost seem a little bit scary," she said. "But I think it feels scary, and it feels daunting because it means so much to you. I think it brings a whole host of emotion. "I always felt like a year to go was really achievable. I could set a target by that point." But from her new stead as President, Kenny admitted that she is relishing the new behind-the-scenes aspect that she has access to. From board meetings about accommodation to talking through athlete selection processes, Kenny has a whole new world of insight into what happens to make a Commonwealth Games come to life.

"I'm so excited," she said. "The reason I took the role in the first place was because I felt like I wanted to give back to the athletes and because Team England have played a huge part in my career. "So, the bit that I'm obviously most excited about is actually talking to the athletes and getting involved and that will only ramp up from now."

Emma Bunton and Tom Fletcher share emotional tributes to 'life-changing' stage school pioneer Sylvia Young after her death at 86
Emma Bunton and Tom Fletcher shared emotional tributes to stage school pioneer Sylvia Young, following her death at the age of 86. Some of Britain's best known entertainers and singers owe their careers to the pioneering teacher, who founded her eponymous school in 1972, including Amy Winehouse, Rita Ora and Billie Piper. Taking to Instagram to share a snap with her former teacher, Emma described Sylvia as a 'life-changer', calling her time at her school as 'some of the best days of her life.' She captioned her post: 'Heartbroken today. Sylvia Young is the reason I can say that I loved my school days. They were some of the best times in my life and she looked after all her young'uns'! 'She was an amazing women, she was a presence, a light, and for me, a life-changer. 'She had a way of seeing the best in everyone, lifting us all, with her wisdom, kindness, and unwavering belief in potential, Sylvia gave me more than just encouragement she gave me a sense of direction and the courage to follow it. 'She didn't just live in this world she grew with it. 'Thinking of her family so much today and sending all my love and hugs to Norman, Frances, Alison and all the beautiful grandchildren. ❤️ 'She will always continue to inspire me every day. I carry her words, her warmth, and her legacy with me. And I always will. 'Thank you, Sylvia. You were and always will be so special to me.' Meanwhile Tom, who also attended Sylvia's school before joining McFly, posted a snap of her attending his wedding to wife Giovanna in 2012. In his moving caption, he revealed that he and his wife first met while they were attending Sylvia's school, and credited her for 'changing his life.' He wrote: 'Absolutely heartbroken to hear that Sylvia has passed away. Sylvia changed my life. I first met her when I was 9 years old when I went into her office halfway through a term, hoping for a place at her school. 'She asked me to sing ''Where Is Love?'' and then told me to get a uniform, I could start the school on Monday! 'Her school is a magical place. She helped so many of us not only fulfil our dreams but created a school environment where we were all happy. 'I was so lucky to have spent my childhood in that special place and under her guidance. It wasn't a school, it was a family. 'Giovanna and I would never have met if it wasn't for Sylvia, and I think she forgave us on our wedding day for all the times we were caught kissing in the corridors around the school. 'Like all of her ex-students, Sylvia has always stood by me, supporting everything I've done and I hope I made her proud. 'She was one of a kind. My heart and thoughts go out to Norman, all of Sylvia's family and friends, and to everyone that knew her.' Daughter and West End star Frances Ruffelle - the mother of pop star Eliza Doolittle - announced on Wednesday her mother died peacefully surrounded by her family. Now based in Westminster, the £14,400-a-year school began with part time classes in the east end of London, before expanding to a larger space in Marleybone and then changing venues once again to a converted church in Westminster where it remains today. The school has a strong reputation for nurturing young talent with an alumni that reads like a roll call of British showbusiness. Other famous faces who attended include Singer Dua Lipa, presenter Denise Van Outen and Tom Fletcher from McFly. Denise Van Outen credited Sylvia for her career. In an interview she told how Young has advised her 'don't focus on one thing, try and do all of it and you'll always work.' Young's daughter, Frances Ruffelle who was the original Eponine in the West End stage stage production of Les Miserables, paid tribute to her mother on social media. She said: 'Our mum was a true visionary, she gave young people from all walks of life the chance to pursue their performing arts skills to the highest standard. 'Her rare ability to recognise raw talent and encourage all her students, contributed to the richness of today's theatre world, even winning an Olivier award herself along the way. 'She believed hard work with a bit of luck brought success and she was an example of that herself. 'Above all she leaves the memory of an East End girl who's worked hard to achieve her goals, took hold of life and lived it to the full. 'Her family were everything to her, her wonderful husband, Norman, our dad and her grandchildren, Eliza, Nat, Phoenix and Coral and her great grandson, Felix. 'We share her love with her wide and inclusive family, her friends, her students, you all meant the world to her.' Tributes have poured in for Syliva. Radio legend Tony Blackburn wrote: So sorry to hear Sylvia Young has passed away. She founded the Sylvia Young Theatre School which has been responsible for starting so many careers in TV and Theatre. 'She was a very lovely lady who I have had the privilege of knowing for many years. She will be sadly missed. R.I.P Sylvia.' Actor Sadie Frost wrote: 'What a woman, what a family, what a legacy! 'Sending everyone so much love and support - I am here if you need me. 'She was always so lovely to me and will cherish memories forever.' EastEnders star Adam Woodyatt, famous for playing Ian Beale, also replied to Frances's Instagram post, sharing a broken heart emoji. All Saints singer Nicole Appleton wrote: 'Frances, I am so sorry to hear your amazing mum has passed. She was a massive part in my life and paved the way for so many of us! Sending you all so much love.' Her sister and fellow All Saints star wrote: 'Oh Frances. I am so sad, so sorry to hear this news. Your amazing mum was a pioneer. She was a rare force who just knew... and she worked so hard.. what a legend. 'This is going to really affect us all who were lucky enough to be part of her amazing world growing up. What a time. The best memories. 'I'm sending so much love to you and all the family.'
