Brooke Warne is left revolted after she discovers disgusting find in her bag of salad: 'Always check your veggies!'
The daughter of Australian cricket icon Shane Warne took to Instagram on Thursday to share an image that would have most shuddering in terror.
The photo showed Brooke, 24, holding what appeared to be a punnet of baby spinach that was harbouring a very unappetising extra.
A large deceased moth could be seen resting on the bed of organic spinach causing Brooke to issue a stark warning to her 86,000 followers.
'Always check you [sic] veggies before you buy. Oh My F,' Brooke captioned the off-putting image.
The influencer, quite rightly, augmented her sentiment with a nauseated face emoji.
Brooke's unpalatable discovery comes after she revealed a new career as a food and lifestyle influencer.
She took to her social media in March to launch her new YouTube channel Cook with Brooke.
The blonde beauty shared a gallery of images in which she is seen wearing a chef's apron and cooking a delicious-looking steak dish.
Brooke also teased fans about what they can look forward to experiencing on her new channel.
'Cook with Brooke is coming to YouTube,' she gushed in the caption.
'Many more exciting vlogs!! Lots of beauty and fashion, travel vlogs and of course food! she continued.
'I love to talk so I thought this could be something fun to start! Lots more cooking and getting to know me! First video launching this week, very excited.'
Meanwhile, Brooke shared some behind-the-scenes footage of herself cooking up a storm for her channel.
In the brief clip, the food enthusiast could be seen preparing a BBQ steak dish which was served on a French baguette with green salad.
Since launching her channel, Brooke has uploaded two videos- the first of which shows Brooke teaching fans how to make the perfect steak sandwich.
The second clip gives an insight into Brooke's beauty regimen along with a fan Q and A.
It comes after Brooke recently shared an emotional tribute to her late father on the third anniversary of his shock death.
The budding influencer shared a gallery of heartfelt photos to social media which captured some of the precious moments she shared with her sporting legend father.
One never-before-seen photo captured a happy Shane tenderly cradling a newborn Brooke, while another image saw them posing in front of a seaside setting.
Brooke captioned the gallery with some emotional words.
'Three years without you Dad. I miss laughing with you about the little things, there is so much I want to show you,' she began.
'I know you're always with us, I love you. I miss you every day.'
The king of spin tragically died of a heart attack at 52 on March 4, 2022, while staying at a luxury villa on the Thailand holiday island of Koh Samui.

The 10 best brunches in Amsterdam
Brunch is a relatively new phenomenon in Amsterdam, defined more by a sense of adventure than tradition. That said, you'll still find old favourites from both sides of the Atlantic – eggs Benedict, stacks of sweet pancakes – alongside breakfast stalwarts like granola and yogurt. But Amsterdammers often opt for something different, whether daring flavours or dishes from other countries. If you're new to town, a canalside location or a quirky interior adds local charm. A cocktail or something sparkling can accompany the meal, but here the emphasis is on conversation and good food rather than extending the boozy revels of the night before. All our recommendations below have been hand-selected and tested by our resident destination expert to help you discover the best brunch in Amsterdam. Find out more below, and see our other Amsterdam guides, providing inspiration for hotels, restaurants, shopping, bars and cafés, attractions and free things to do. Belly Pepper Usually packed with a jolly, friendly crowd, Belly Pepper serves homecooked Turkish delights, including çilbir – buttery, peppery poached eggs in garlic yogurt (quite literally 'to die for') – along with soft, sesame-studded simit bread, sweet Turkish tea, salads, and more. The Living Kitchen by Zoku Unheralded by signs outside and tucked inside a nondescript concrete office block, reached after an unpromising lift ride, Zoku reveals a delightful rooftop garden terrace and a spacious, comfy lounge, filled with cosy nooks, designer sofas, and communal tables. Eggs, shakshuka, seasonal dishes (featuring fresh herbs from the garden), and the usual breakfast favourites make for a brunch worth lingering over. Little Collins A trailblazer for brunch in Amsterdam, the Australian owners introduced local palates to classics like kedgeree, alongside eggs with hollandaise, cauliflower-and-fennel fritters and coconut feta. Brisk and bustling, with plain walls, scrubbed wood and a charming alley terrace, it captures the very essence of De Pijp. Area: De Pijp Nearest metro: Trams: 3, 4, 24; Metro: De Pijp Website: Price: ££ Reservations: Walk-in basis only Oeuf Gentle morning sun filters onto Oeuf's quiet terrace, while inside, it's a classic café (think bentwood chairs and marble-top tables). Dishes are inspired by – and are almost worshipful of – the egg: a perfect eggs Benedict, Norwegian-style with salmon, or spiced up in shakshuka. It's great for a late, languid breakfast. Dignita Hoftuin Stretched out languidly in a courtyard garden, this spot radiates tranquillity in a busy part of town. Seasonal fare and sustainable local produce feature in dishes like eggs Florentine, kadaifi with aubergine and courgettes, mango-mustard toasties, and excellent cakes. As an added bonus, 100 per cent of profits support training programmes for people who have faced hardship and exploitation. Area: Centre/East Nearest metro: Trams: 4, 14; Metro: Waterlooplein Website: Price: ££ Reservations: Recommended Box Sociaal Jordaan Housed in a 17th-century canalside building with Vermeer-style black-and-white floors beneath white-painted roof beams, Box Sociaal echoes with cheerful chatter. The atmosphere is easy-going and friendly, as diners tuck into bagels piled with avocado and crab-claw salad, buttermilk pancakes, or hearty Cumberland sausages with bacon. A few tables sit right on the waterside, adding extra charm. Staring at Jacob A hip canalside brunch bar tucked on a quiet residential street. The long space, with tall windows and a pavement terrace, makes it worth securing a table with the best view of the canal houseboats. Upbeat music, often hip-hop, lifts the atmosphere without drowning out conversation. Don't miss the shrimp tacos or the buttermilk fried chicken with waffles, coleslaw and maple syrup. Area: Oud West Nearest metro: Trams 1, 17; Metro: Postjesweg Website: Price: ££ Reservations: Essential Miri Mary Beneath towering plane trees on one of Amsterdam's prettiest squares, diners can enjoy piles of fluffy naan bread and dishes meant for sharing. The chef embraces new trends in Indian cuisine while playfully reworking classics: think a 'butter-chicken benny' (butter chicken meets eggs Benedict) or smoky spinach-and-endive saag with a surprising dollop of burrata. Lotti's at The Hoxton Amsterdammers and visitors alike flock to Lotti's for weekend brunch, a lobby brasserie nestled within The Hoxton hotel on the Herengracht. A large covered atrium provides both warmth and much-needed light in winter, while the menu balances old favourites, like avocado mash on sourdough, with inventive new creations, such as coconut yogurt with matcha. Area: Canal Belt Nearest metro: Tram: 2, 4, 12, 14, 17; Metro: Rokin Website: Price: ££ Reservations: Recommended Ceintuur Theater This bright and boisterous spot in a repurposed art deco cinema now stretches up through two separate mezzanine levels. Couples, boozers at the bar and groups at communal tables all join in the fun while enjoying cocktails, good coffee or the excellent pastrami toast with sauerkraut. Area: De Pijp Nearest metro: Trams: 3, 4, 24; Metro: De Pijp Website: Price: £-££ Reservations: Recommended How we choose Every restaurant on this curated list has been tried and tested by our destination expert, who has visited in person to provide an insider perspective. We cover a range of budgets, from neighbourhood favourites to Michelin-starred spots, to suit every traveller's taste. Our recommendations take into account the food, service, best tables, atmosphere, and price. The list is updated regularly to reflect the latest openings and provide up-to-date guidance. Return to top About our expert Rodney Bolt I first visited Amsterdam nearly 30 years ago after flitting through Greece, Germany and the UK – and nothing could persuade me to leave. I have written about everything I love about the city for publications worldwide, and co-author the Peter Posthumus mysteries, all set in Amsterdam. Even now, strolling along the canals remains one of life's greatest pleasures.

Australia's most notorious vegan activist begs fans for $30,000 to leave the country
A notorious vegan activist has asked her followers to help her raise $30,000 so she can pay a travel bond and attend an animal rights 'camp out' abroad. Tash Peterson, 31, surrendered her passport and declared bankruptcy in May this year after losing a defamation suit. Western Australian Supreme Court Chief Justice Peter Quinlan found in 2024 that she and her boyfriend, Jack Higgs, had published defamatory claims about a vet 'eating her own patients'. Peterson and Higgs were ordered to pay $280,000 in damages. But the young activist wants to travel to the United Kingdom and deliver a speech at the Vegan Camp Out Festival in Hertfordshire over the final weekend of August. She and Higgs will have to pay a $30,000 bond for their bankruptcy trustees to retrieve their passports. 'We are bankrupt and need $30,000 to get to the UK for the Vegan Camp Out,' she said in a video shared with her followers on social media. Higgs claimed the pair were 'forced into bankruptcy' by the defamation case. 'Our bankruptcy trustees said that we have to pay $30,000 if we want to go to the UK, because they're concerned we're going to flee Australia for good,' Peterson said. 'Because of this we're trying to raise funds so that I can give my speech... the only purpose of our trip is so that I can speak up for non-human animals not to run away.' Higgs said the bond, once returned after the trip, would go to funding the Farm Transparency Project, which produced the vegan cult film Dominion. Peterson's mother, Sally, is hosting the pair's GoFundMe page online, which has so far raised $3,200. In April this year, WA vet Kay McIntosh's lawyer, Martin Bennett, said neither Peterson nor Higgs had 'attempted to pay a cent' of the defamation damages. The Daily Mail has contacted Peterson for comment. Peterson has carried out controversial protests on several occasions including 'gatecrashing' restaurants and agricultural events. In March, she burst into The Lamb Shop at Broadbeach on the Gold Coast playing the 'screams of terrified animals' from a speaker attached to her belt. 'Do the screams make you feel guilty?' she asked customers before she was confronted by a worker. She has also covered her body in fake blood on numerous occasions and paraded through public locations while carrying pro-veganism signs. Last year, the semi-clad activist protested in a bloodied stunt outside David Jones on Hay Street in Perth's CBD. She highlighted the message by lying on top of a 'blood-soaked chopping block' which read: 'David Jones: Drop Wild-Animal Skins'. Peterson launched an OnlyFans page in 2022 to fund her career-activist ambitions, publishing a lengthy video explaining the move at the time. 'I get accused of being an attention seeker, I get accused of sexualising myself, I get accused of just doing my animal rights activism to promote my OnlyFans account,' she said. 'Obviously in our society today we think women are treated equally however there is so much ingrained misogyny amongst men and women today because a lot of people are saying women shouldn't be wearing lingerie, they shouldn't be going on OnlyFans and getting paid to be topless or naked. 'I completely dispute this because I think women should be able to do whatever the hell they want to with their bodies.' Her OnlyFans revenue was scrutinised in court in April, following the bankruptcy declaration. The justice rejected the pursuant's attempts to conflate Peterson's activism and her trust company, V-Gan Booty PTY LTD, which owns her subscription operations. He said Peterson's OnlyFans revenue was likely boosted by her notoriety as an activist, but said not all of her actions were 'in her capacity as a director or agent of the company', according to the West Australian. The company raked in $250,952 in taxable income for the financial year 2021-22, of which $132,948 came from online subscription sales.

Celebrity SAS star reveals the show's ‘greatest ever escape' went unaired and left Ant Middleton fuming
A CELEBRITY SAS: Who Dares Wins star has revealed the show's "greatest ever escape" which went unaired and left Ant Middleton fuming. The Channel 4 show is not for the fainthearted and sees 14 famous faces trying to keep up with almost impossible tasks. 5 5 5 Celebrity SAS sees former Special Forces members put the celebrity contestants through their paces in an intense training camp. Ant, who was axed from the UK's SAS: Who Dares Wins in 2021, was well known for his tough persona on the show. Now a former celebrity contestant has spilled the beans on an unaired scene that infuriated Ant so much he inflicted a harsh punishment on him. Rugby ace Sam Burgess took part in the Australian version of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins two years ago, which Ant joined after he was axed from the UK show. The sportsman revealed that he was told he performed the "best escape they had ever seen on the show", but how it was never aired Spilling the beans, Sam told The Overlap and Betfair's Stick to Cricket show: 'When I did Celebrity SAS, it was a 15-day course. 20 start and only a few finish it. "By day 12, you're sleep deprived, food deprived, freezing. They'd taught us: if you're captured, try to escape - transport is your best chance. 'We get ambushed, hooded, zip-tied, thrown in stress positions. After two hours, we're loaded into a minibus. "I pop my restraints, peek under the hood and I see one driver, one cameraman, one soldier, no guns. I think I can take these guys." Celebrity SAS star axed after 'lying and cheating' on show - as another quits Continuing, he said: 'I waited for my moment, ripped the soldier's comms off, threw his phone out, choked the driver, 'Pull the f***ing van over now.' He's silent, so I start tugging the wheel. "Told another contestant to pull the handbrake and take the keys. We screech to a stop, throw them out, and I drive off with the others. 'We're free - driving around for 40 minutes - I even thought about going to KFC. Eventually I spot a pub, pull in. Fifteen minutes later, we are surrounded by cars." He the said that Ant wan't happy about his actions, and bestowed a harsh punishment on him. 5 "Ant Middleton gets on the bus, they absolutely flog us for 12 hours - tied up, thrown in shipping containers," Sam revealed. "Two contestants quit. None of it ever aired, but they told me it was the best escape they'd had.' Ant spent years fighting for his country during his military career in the Marines and the Paras. He was chief instructor on SAS: Who Dares Wins before he was sacked after a series of blunders. One included a tweet about the Black Lives Matter movement. There was a social media backlash in June 2020 after Ant posted a video of violence at anti-racism protests in London. He tweeted: 'The extreme left against the extreme right. "BLM and EDL are not welcome on our streets, absolute scum. "What a great example you are to your future generation. Bravo." The same month, Channel 4 set out a "new and clear commitment" to being an anti-racist organisation and said Ant's tweet 'in no way represent the views of Channel 4'. Discussing what happened for him to lose his job, he told The James Smith podcast: 'Witch hunt? I never thought that existed until the latest shenanigans with SAS UK. 'Ultimately people can see through it and know I was pushed before I could jump.' Speaking about the BLM tweet, Ant also defended himself at the time, telling The Sun: 'If you have half a brain cell you will realise what I was talking about. 'It was the protesters fighting and violence and rioting in broad daylight. Everything I fought for abroad to stop happening on our shores.' Meanwhile, the latest series of the UK's Celebrity SAS has been full of drama. In the first episode, two stars quit, before Love Islanders Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri followed suit in the second instalment. While none of the celebrities handed in their armbands in the latest episode there was still a double exit. The Traitors star Harry Clark was given his marching orders by the furious staff. It came after they noticed he was cutting corners and not pulling his weight. His actions seemed to contribute to former footballer's Adebayo 'The Beast' Akinfenwa's decision to quit, after he shouldered much of the weight of the dinghy Harry's team was trying to transport in a race. With his bad knee flaring up, Adebayo ran out of steam due to the pain and was forced to withdraw when he couldn't continue.
