Healthy eating: This vegan Eton Mess is a tasty tried-and-tested classic that can also power up your gut
This week, we're celebrating Eton Mess (not eaten mess, as my son tragically thought for over a decade and studiously avoided ordering them at restaurants). It is a classic British dessert, believed to have originated at Eton boarding school for boys during cricket season (it certainly beats a Dip Dab).

‘Monster' Royal Ascot horse outruns a car in blistering workout under Ryan Moore – as bookies scramble to slash price
EVERY punter knows the famous story of how legendary racehorse Frankel famously outran the 7.13am train from Newmarket to Cambridge. But it looks like a new legend could be made after a 'monster' Royal Ascot runner appeared to show more zip than a car in a 'blistering' piece of work. Millionaire runner Satono Reve impressed all those who saw him on the July track at Newmarket on Wednesday morning. Trained by Noriyuki Hori, the international raider looked a machine when extending under the watchful eye of his master trainer. Footage of his work showed a car in the distance fail to get up close to the six-year-old as he absolutely flew past those near the post. And his workmate, a local horse trained by James Horton, was soon left trailing in his wake. But it was Moore's role in the saddle that really got tongues wagging ahead of Satono Reve's intended run in the star-studded Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes next Saturday. Satono Reve has won seven of his 11 career races and amassed more than £2.5million in prize money. British punters may not know much about him but he has form against Ka Ying Rising - officially the best sprinter in the world. Paddy Power and Ladbrokes cut the speedster to 6-1 from 8s after footage of Satono Reve's work under Moore spread online. Most read in Horse Racing Paddy's Paul Binfield said: "There's been a bit of interest for the Japanese raider this morning and while it's hard to equate winning a Grade One at Chukyo with the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes, the volume we've seen has forced us into evasive action and the Hori-trained runner is into 6-1 from 8s." Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes added: "Satono Reve placed behind superstar Ka Ying Rising on both his previous trips abroad, and punters are excited to see how that translates at Royal Ascot." Punters absolutely loved what they saw. One said Satono Reve 'burned up the turf' while another added in response to the footage simply: "Monster." He'll have his work cut out in the race proper, with globe-trotting superstar Lazzat, one of many recently bought by Wathnan, heading the market at 3-1.

Ed Sheeran responds to comments about Irish identity
After some fans criticised Ed Sheeran's statement that he identified "culturally as Irish", the singer has said he is "allowed to feel connection" to a place his family is from. The singer-songwriter, who was born in West Yorkshire and raised in Suffolk, appeared on The Louis Theroux podcast, where he spoke about his large Irish family, including his Belfast-born father, and how he spent his holidays in the country as a child. However, some fans did not take too kindly to Sheeran's revelations and took to X to share their thoughts. One user wrote: "Identifies just means to pretend", while another said: "That Galway Girl must've spun his head around." Taking to Instagram Stories on Wednesday, Sheeran posted a message to "anyone with an opinion after what I said about my heritage". "My dad is Irish. My family is Irish. I have an Irish passport," he wrote. "The culture I was brought up around is Irish." "The first music I learnt was Irish. Just coz I was born somewhere else doesn't change my culture, I can be allowed to feel connection to a place half my family is from." Speaking to Theroux, Sheeran spoke about how he was proud of his Irish heritage. "So I identify culturally as Irish, but I was obviously born and raised in Britain," he said. "I do feel like my culture is something that I'm really proud of and grew up with and want to express. "And I feel like just because I was born in Britain doesn't necessarily mean that I have to just be (British), there's loads of people I know that are half this or quarter this." The hitmaker also stated that Ireland was his "second home musically" and the place he is "most successful musically".
