Tracy Morgan says food poisoning led to Knicks game being delayed by vomit
Tracy Morgan says food poisoning was to blame after he vomited copiously during Monday's Knicks-Heat game.
The actor-comedian posted an update on Instagram Tuesday morning, along with a photo of him smiling from a hospital bed, thanking fans for their concern. He also joked the incident spelled good luck for the Knicks.
'I'm doing ok now and doctors say it was food poisoning. Appreciate my MSG family for taking such good care of me and I need to shout out the crew that had to clean that up. Appreciate you!' Morgan wrote.

'More importantly, the Knicks are now 1-0 when I throw up on the court so maybe I'll have to break it out again in the playoffs,' he wrote, ending his post with a #goknicks hashtag.
Morgan became ill in the second half of Monday's game, interrupting the action at Madison Square Garden while workers cleaned up the area around his seat. The delay lasted more than 10 minutes. The Knicks went on to win, 116-95.
The 56-year-old, a longtime Knicks fan, was featured prominently during the Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary weekend events, at both the SNL50: The Homecoming Concert and the live SNL50: The Anniversary Celebration special. He also has an upcoming untitled comedy pilot on NBC opposite Daniel Radcliffe, in which he plays a disgraced former football player looking to remake his image.

Westlife star missing from upcoming shows after concerning year-long silence
Westlife are planning a new album and some 'special shows' to mark their 25th anniversary, but member Mark Feehily is missing from the celebrations following his health complications. The Flying Without Wings boy band – made up of Shane Filan, Nicky Byrne, Kian Egan and Mark – have teased some exciting projects in honour of the milestone, but they have confirmed Mark, 45, isn't able to be part of the plans. In a statement on X, they wrote: 'To our amazing fans, we would like to take this opportunity to share some very important news with you all. 'We are thrilled to announce the launch of our 25th Anniversary celebrations… 'On the 9th February 2001 we kicked off our first ever world tour at the Newcastle Arena. Who would have thought we would still be here 25 years later? 'We have so many exciting plans to share with you very soon which will include new music, an album, special shows and many, many more surprises along the way.' The band continued: 'Sadly, Mark will be unable to join the celebrations. 'We hope we can join us back on stage when he is ready and able. He sends his love and positivity to you all as always.' Mark stepped back from the group in February 2024 mid-tour due to health issues. He's been out of the public eye and appears to have been off social media for a year now, almost to the day. Explaining his health problems in a lengthy post as he bowed out of the tour last year, Mark said that his 'challenges' began in August 2020 while having surgery, which led to needing intensive care treatment. In the middle of Westlife's Wild Dreams worldwide tour, due to complications Mark ended up back in hospital and was told he had pneumonia. He had surgery again in May 2022. Mark detailed his 2020 hospital experience on Instagram: 'I spent the next few months in hospital. It was during lockdown. For months, due to strict Covid restrictions, I was not allowed any visitors including my fiancée [Cailean O'Neill] and my then 10-month-old daughter [Layla].' 'It was physically and mentally a very difficult time, not to mention traumatic having to spend so long in ICU.' He announced at the time: 'It is with the utmost level of regret that I must now temporarily stand down from all Westlife touring until a time that I have had the chance to fully recover from the turbulent journey I have been through as an individual. 'I wish things could be different!' The band added in their own statement: 'We would like to take this opportunity to send our brother, best friend and fellow band-mate, Mark so many well wishes as he takes the necessary time he needs to recover.' Mark was seemingly last active on social media on June 11, 2024, when he wished his Instagram followers a happy pride month, and he hasn't posted on his grid since. Fans noticed this absence as the big Westlife 25-years announcement came, with many taking to his social media to wish him well. kellzbellz29 wrote: 'Just realised it's been a year since this last post. We hope you are ok.' bramhaldrowena commented: 'We miss you, Mark. I'm hoping you're feeling OK and we can see you on stage as soon as you're feeling ready.' d_for_duls said: 'It's been a year since we last heard from you. Hope you're keeping well. Get well soon. Sending blessings and good vibes your way.' All four members of Westlife – which originally featured Brian McFadden before he left after six years in 2004 – 'can't quite believe' their longevity. More Trending The statement announcing the 25-years celebrations continued: 'The four of us can't quite believe it's been 25 years. 'We could only have dreamt of the continued love and loyalty you have consistently shown us around the world. 'We are so lucky to have all of you with us and we can't wait to celebrate together!

Vicky Pattison left with anxiety, insomnia and dark thoughts in scary ordeal
Vicky Pattison has revealed she dealt with 'crippling anxiety, insomnia and dark thoughts' as she suffered a premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) episode recently Vicky Pattison has candidly opened up on the terrifying feelings she felt during her latest premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) episode. The former Geordie Shore star, 37, has regularly shared her condition with her followers in a bid to help others in her situation. And now the reality TV star has confessed to just how bad things got recently, explaining the "crippling anxiety, insomnia and dark thoughts" she dealt with. In a tearful update on Instagram, Vicky shared a clip of herself explaining how the condition is affecting her. In the clip, Vicky also showed how her stomach bloats during the painful moments. She also showed herself eating, attending work projects and laughing before walking her dog and showing a billboard for her Get A Grip podcast. The reel also showed her wedding day in a mix of emotions. Vicky captioned the upload: "The highs & lows of PMDD. It's always a bit of a mixed bag with my PMDD- some months aren't so bad & I feel hopeful. "And other months it just completely takes me out & I feel hopeless. Usually there's no real rhyme or reason. But last month I knew I was in for abit of a rough ride- I hadn't done anything that I know helps alleviate my symptoms." She went on: "I hadn't been consistent with my supplements, my diet was atrocious & my schedule was just unrelenting so I went into my luteal phase not really standing a chance. But despite my concerns, nothing could have prepared me." Vicky called the incident "terrifying", revealing she rang her sister in a desperate attempt as she didn't know what she was going to do. She told her how she also didn't know what she was capable of. The Geordie continued: "And after a week of crippling anxiety, insomnia, my inner critic finding fault at every turn & dark thoughts.. I know I meant it. And that's the thing with PMDD, one week you're this bright, shiny, brilliant woman who is strong, smart & ready for anything life throws at you.. & then your PMDD fog sets in and your brain convinces you that you're worthless, that everyone hates you & the world would be a better place without you in it. "Every month I lose myself & descend further & further into this self loathing state & this month almost got the better of me." She confessed she isn't looking for sympathy by sharing her story, but is talking out as she knows she is not alone. "Supposedly 1 in 20 women are dealing with PMDD, but due to medical misogyny, lack of awareness & misdiagnosis- I believe that number to be a lot higher. "Which means that there are thousands, if not millions of women suffering in silence or being ignored or gaslit into believing these things are normal. They aren't. You have a condition. A hormonal disorder & these thoughts are not a reflection of your actual value." She urged anyone dealing with the condition to know they are not alone as she candidly told them the world "is better for having you in it". In her defiant message, she signed off: "You are a warrior.. you are powerful & you are UNSTOPPABLE." Her honest words were met with an influx of praise in the comments section. Among those sending well wishes was Celebs Go Dating expert Anna Williamson. She wrote: "So beautifully articulated @vickypattison," alongside a clapping hands emoji and a red love heart. Angela Scanlon also gushed: "Love you very much." Una Healy was also among the thousands hitting the like button on the post.

"I promise to love you, protect you and stand by your side for the rest of our lives. 10.06.2025." The couple received heaps of support from their celeb friends in the comments section. Towie star Jasmin Walia commented: "Josssss (lyn) so happy for you !" Geordie Shore's Kyle Christie added: "Congratulations to both of you, always thought you were already married @roguesnaps." Love Island alum Tom Clare chimed in with: "Congratulations!" with Scott Thomas saying: "go on the boy," followed by a string of heart emojis. Claudia Fogarty, Gabby Allen, Holly Hagan, Cally-Jane Beech, Davide Sanclimenti and Anton Danyluk also sent words of support. Joss first rose to fame in 2014 when he joined Ex on the Beach series one, arriving as Talitha Minnis's ex. He also had flings on the show with Emma Jane Lang and Chloe Goodman, and returned for Ex on the Beach: All Stars. He later competed on MTV's The Challenge, becoming known for his athletic ability and competitive streak. Off-screen, Joss had a short-lived romance with Geordie Shore's Vicky Pattison and was later linked to Shelby Billingham, Olivia Walsh, Kayleigh Morris and Ellie O'Donnell. But in recent years, the fitness coach has kept his love life mostly under wraps - until now. He and Emma have been together for over two years, currently living between London and Dubai. Joss Mooney's illustrious love life HE made waves on Ex on the Beach over a decade ago as one of the show's most notorious heartthrobs. Since then, Joss Mooney has had his fair share of on-screen drama and off-screen romances - but now, the fitness star has finally found lasting love after years of living the Lothario lifestyle. Talitha Minnis (2014) Joss entered Ex on the Beach Series 1 as Talitha's ex. Their fiery reunion set the tone for the drama-packed season, which aired in April 2014. Emma Jane Lang (2014) She arrived halfway through the series as another one of Joss's exes. The pair had a steamy connection, but things didn't last off-screen. Chloe Goodman (2014) Chloe and Joss shared a brief flirtation in the villa, adding to his growing rep as a ladies' man. Shelby Billingham (2014) Joss and Shelby had history before the show — and when she showed up in episode 6, it sparked more tension. Rumours of an off-screen reunion followed. Vicky Pattison (Late 2014 – Early 2015) After Ex on the Beach, Joss was linked to Geordie Shore's Vicky. The pair were pictured together several times but never made it official. Kayleigh Morris (2016) Joss returned for Ex on the Beach: All Stars in 2016 as Kayleigh's ex. Their on-screen chemistry reignited interest in their past, though it didn't last long. Olivia Walsh (2016) Also in Series 5, Olivia arrived as one of Joss's exes. Viewers saw sparks — but nothing serious materialised beyond filming. Ellie O'Donnell (2019) Joss went Instagram official with influencer Ellie in 2019. The couple looked loved-up in snaps but quietly split after a few months. Emma Louise (2023 – now) After years of high-profile flings, Joss went Instagram official with pilates instructor Emma Louise in early 2023. The couple now split their time between London and Dubai. On June 10, 2025, he popped the question during a romantic dinner in Marbella — and she said yes. 5 He's been with Dubai-based Emma for two years Credit: Instagram 5 The couple received heaps of support from their celeb friends in the comments section Credit: Instagram 5 Emma regularly posts sizzling snaps to Instagram Credit: Instagram
