Lewis Capaldi supported by celebrity friends after emotional Glastonbury return
Lewis Capaldi's emotional surprise return to Glastonbury saw the Scottish singer receive an influx of support from the celebrity world two years on from his last performance
An emotional Lewis Capaldi was supported by a wave of celebrity friends as he made a surprise return to Glastonbury. The Scottish singer returned to Worthy Farm two years after he last performed at the festival. The Someone You Loved singer struggled to finish his set last timeout, with his voice faltering in a touching message to the crowd.
At the time, he told them: "Glastonbury, I'm really sorry. I'm a bit annoyed with myself." The crowd soon took over the vocals of Someone You Loved. "I feel like I'll be taking another wee break over the next couple of weeks. So you probably won't see much of me for the rest of the year, maybe even. But when I do come back and when I do see you, I hope you're still up for watching us."
And today, after telling the crowd "second time's a charm," Lewis was able to complete the song two years on. Following his emotional set, Lewis took to Instagram to share a clip of the two performances merged together.
In the touching clip, it showed the struggle of 2023 before a teary-eyed Lewis looked on after taking to the stage again today. He captioned his upload: "Glastonbury it's so incredible to be back, thank you so much for having me x"
And his video was immediately met with a wave of support. Among those sharing a message with the star was former footballer Alan Shearer, who simply said: "Love it," alongside clapping hands emojis.
McFly's Danny Jones also said: "Epic maaaaaate so good to see you back," while Sam Fender labelled it the "return of the king".
Paddy McGuinness was also on hand to compliment his efforts, calling him the governor, while ex-Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall responded with a love heart emoji.
Lewis was also supported backstage after his gig. Matty Healy was seen recording a message for some fans backstage to send his support to the Scottish star. A source attending Glastonbury told the Mirror: 'I heard him say 'really pleased he is here and I wish him well"
Lewis' return comes hours after he released a new song called Survive. As he shared a post on Instagram announcing the new tune, he captioned it: "It's been a while." The new song is full of emotion with lyrics including lines such as "I swear to God I'll survive" and "I'm going to get up and live until the day that I die."
It marks his first new release since stepping out of the spotlight because of his mental health. And as he performed it to the Glastonbury crowd he cried as he began to sing. He revealed that his one goal was to get back on stage at Glastonbury as he paid tribute to the fans.
At the end of the song, he struggled to get through the track, with the emotion clearly a lot for him as he sang those final words with passion.

Jeremy Clarkson says he's 'done' and makes major decision after pub struggles
Clarkson's Farm and former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson has documented his journey when it comes to his farm and now he is giving an insight into his pub business Jeremy Clarkson says he's "done" after struggling with his pub venture. The TV star has said that he won't be taking on any more entrepreneurial ventures after his pub due to not understanding the business behind it. The Grand Tour star took on the new business venture in July 2024 when he bought the pub in Asthall. He decided to take on the challenge after being successful with his 1000-acre Diddly Squat farm and accompanying shop. Jeremy features the purchase of the pub in the latest series of Clarkson's Farm but says he won't be doing it again. The pub is called The Farmer's Dog and has attracted people from around the country to go and visit – with many taking to social media to issues reviews.

I am not starting another business as long as I live. I don't understand it and am not motivated by money. I just want a good craic." The former Top Gear host has been showing his pub landlord journey during his series and he has also revealed the funny reason why he chose to name the pub The Farmer's Dog. In the fourth episode, Jeremy can be seen reading through documentation about handling the pub's purchase and this is when he finds out that the surrounding Oxfordshire area is regularly visited by people who enjoy having sex in public spaces. Jeremy finds that the pub's garden area is designated by the council as "a picnic site". Clarkson then called his lawyer to explain the situation and he was told that the site previously attracted some "unwanted and anti-social behaviour" that "might put you off eating your picnic". The lawyer said: "We have happened upon some quite interesting photographs which capture certain graffiti and certain goings-on." Clarkson then visited the area himself and found that it was still going on as he found underwear thrown in trees. He first talked about the dogging rumours when he shared a post to his Instagram page. He stood outside of the pub as he held up a stick with a pair of black and pink knickers hanging off the end. He wrote: "Tell me you bought a pub on a dogging site without telling me you bought a pub on a dogging site." The Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? presenter also had a serious health scare that saw him rushed to hospital recently. He underwent surgery upon finding one artery was completely blocked and another nearly, after waking up one morning feeling "clammy", with chest tightness and odd sensations in his arm. Following his health scare, Jeremy has had to make some "horrific" changes to his lifestyle, including exercising, cutting down on alcohol, and changing his diet, all of which means he's "not allowed to have fun anymore".

I'm 42 and was desperate to have a Kris Jenner ‘face lift' but was left with a bumpy, lumpy neck
HER rumoured facelift hit headlines worldwide - with people praising just how flawless the results were. And one person keen to emulate Kris Jenner's new look was Australian model Rebecca Judd. 4 Australian model Rebecca Judd asked her aesthetician for "Kris Jenner's neck without surgery", but ended up with a bumpy, lumpy neck Credit: instagram/rebecca judd 4 The 42-year-old model as she normally looks Credit: Getty 4 Kris Jenner has wowed people with her new look - seen here in March 2024 before undergoing a rumoured face lift Credit: Getty 4 Her face is now flawless, and she looks decades younger than her 69 years Credit: Instagram The 42-year-old asked her clinical specialist Claire McGuinness to "give me Kris Jenner's neck without surgery". However, things didn't appear to have gone quite to plan, judging by Rebecca's Instagram Stories post. In the image, she showed that she'd been left with three lines of raised bumps on her neck. The lumps on her neck under her chin looked to have started healing, with some of them disappearing completely.

It's not clear exactly what procedure Rebecca had, but Claire's website states that she offers countless facial rejuvenation procedures - from micro-needling to LED light therapy. The picture of Rebecca's bumpy neck went viral on social media, with people taking to the comments section of the posts to weigh in on what treatment Rebecca may have received. "Looks like MicroBotox to me," one wrote. "This pic was probably taken right after and then the bumps go down. "Nothing major that is for sure!" People compare me to Kris Jenner - now she's 'had a facelift', they say we look even more like 'twins' "These are Botox injection bumps and will literally be gone in under 10 minutes," another added. "You all do realise this is probs just polys?" a third asked. "It goes down within half hour - it's a simple easy good little treatment." "This is a Skin Booster, and this is exactly what it should look like post injections," someone else commented. Kris, 69, left fans stunned when she stepped out showcasing her new youthful look, with her rep confirming to Page Six that she underwent aesthetic enhancements from New York plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Levine. Although it has not been revealed exactly what she had done, many critics have suggested she underwent a deep plane facelift. What is a face lift and how quick is the recovery? A FACE lift (technically called a rhytidectomy) is a cosmetic surgical procedure which tries to reduce visible signs of ageing in the face and neck. The procedure begins with either general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia with sedation to ensure you're comfortable and pain-free. The surgeon makes incisions based on the type of face lift. The surgeon lifts the skin and underlying tissues (SMAS layer – superficial musculoaponeurotic system). Fat may be sculpted, removed, or redistributed. The underlying muscle and connective tissues are tightened and repositioned to create a more youthful look. The skin is gently laid back over the newly repositioned contours and incisions are closed with sutures (medical stitch) or skin adhesives. Recovery time varies, but most people return to normal activities within two to four weeks. In an exclusive chat with The U.S. Sun, Dr. Norman Rowe, who did not do Kris's work but specializes in deep plane facelifts, was asked how much her rumoured procedure might have set her back. "It depends on whether or not you're getting it in Cincinnati, Ohio, or Miami or New York or LA," he said. "I mean, it can range from, five figures to six figures."
