Daisy May Cooper reveals 'real name' in adorable throwback snap
The This Country star shared a throwback snap, celebrating the first birthday of her baby boy, Benji.
On her Instagram story, Daisy May, 38, posted a picture of the hospital board with her full legal name.
'1 year ago today at 03.04am we welcomed our baby boy into the world,' she wrote with 'Thursday 6 6 2924' written below.
Written clearly as the patient's name was Daisy May Weston, the surname of her ex, Will Weston, who she wed in 2019.
It seems, while she uses her maiden name professionally, the Am I Being Unreasonable? actress has kept her ex's last name.

She also has two other children; Pip, five, and Jack, three, from her relationship with Will.
Daisy May met Anthony on Hinge and are 'madly in love', with the star referring to him as her fiancé in February.
A source said: 'Daisy and Anthony are madly in love with each other and are a success story for dating apps.
'Their relationship has gone from strength to strength and already have a baby boy together.'
They added to The Sun: 'It felt the natural step for them both, and their friends and family are made up for them.'
Daisy herself told Katie Price on the reality star's podcast: 'I'm with the same guy I've been with for a year and he's so f*****g good for me. More Trending
'He's so calming and it's made me realise that I can actually be a f*****g good partner, if I have a nice partner in return, if he's not trying to f*****g control me, or compete with me or put me down.'
Benji arrived early, in what Daisy called 'a scary time' with the tot believed to have spent some time in the NICU (neonatal intensive care ward).
The happy couple shared snaps of their newborn, one in Anthony's arms and one in an incubator.

'My ex and I broke up then had to live together - what he did surprised me'
A woman who had no choice but to live with her ex-boyfriend for a year said it was "actually quite fun" and was surprised by how well it went, for the most part. The unique experience might seem like the plot of a rom-com, but for Hannah Linsley and Michael Loven, it was reality. Hannah, 22, and Michael, 23, had been a couple for two years after meeting at 'pre-drinks' during their first year at Bournemouth University in March 2023. After spending every day together, the pair decided to move in together in September 2024 for the next academic year. But just one month before they were due to move into their two-bedroom flat, Michael called off the relationship, leaving Hannah "really upset." With neither of them willing to find a replacement tenant for the flat due to their being "very stubborn," they were stuck living together as housemates. Despite its ups and downs—and the pair considering getting back together multiple times—the lovers turned flatmates say they remain firm friends. But Hannah said it wasn't without its awkward moments—like finding each other on dating apps and bumping into each other on nights out. The 22-year-old psychology graduate from Portsmouth said: "Michael was the one who wanted to split up originally, so I said 'you can go'. But he said 'no, you go'. In the end it was like 'OK, well I guess we're living together then'. Overall, it's actually been quite fun. "I say to people that I'd much rather be living with him as he's quite clean and tidy, rather than living in a house of six people and the kitchen always being a mess." The pair had new challenges in single life that most never encounter while still living with an ex. Hannah admitted that she'd found Michael, from Oxfordshire, who is set to finish the final year of his psychology degree "on Tinder a few times" and Michael found his ex-girlfriend using Hinge. She said: "As a joke we matched each other on Hinge. I'd be out on a Wednesday for student night and he'd be dancing with a girl, and he'll turn around and come with me. "Talking about it makes you realise how funny it is. One time, on Valentine's Day, I was like 'right, I'm having a girls' night' and he served us pizzas dressed up as a waiter." The couple have considered getting back together, with Michael first bringing up the idea in March 2025, but it never happened. Hannah added: "It's been very confusing for both of us. "At one point, we were thinking of getting back together. He always says 'we're soulmates' but I always say 'if we were, we wouldn't have split up'. I do think there could be a time when we get back together. I don't know, it's the unknown." Michael and Hannah were far from bitter about the break-up, and didn't make life hell for one another in the flat. The 23-year-old said: "We have been living our lives outside the flat, but in the flat we'd do our food shop together. I was selling her Vinted stuff for her. She gave me £20 to take the photos for her." The pair will be leaving the flat behind as Hannah moves home to Portsmouth, Hampshire, to start her new job as a behavioural support worker in September. Meanwhile, Michael is set to move into a new flat with five other boys as he completes his final year at university. He said: "For me personally, I don't think a relationship is going to blossom this year coming up as I'm in my last year of uni. In the future, who knows?"

Tyson Fury marries wife Paris for the third time in private France wedding
Tyson Fury has married his wife, Paris, for a third time, surrounded by the couple's children, in a ceremony in France. The retired heavyweight boxer, 37, and Paris, 35, were first married in 2008 when she was just 19 years old, and have since renewed their vows on one other occasion. Taking to social media, Tyson wrote of their most recent romantic ceremony: 'Paris Fury and I got married again; third time lucky. We had the most beautiful day in the South of France, it holds a lot of special memories for us.' The couple have seven children together: sons Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, nine, Prince Adonis Amaziah, six, and Prince Rico, two, and daughters Venezuela, 15, Valencia, seven, and Athena, four. Paris wore a flowing white lace dress while the Gypsy King wore a cream shirt, white shorts, and sandals. The couple's children also looked appropriately festive, sons Prince John James, Prince Tyson II, Prince Adonis Amaziah, and Prince Rico wearing matching suits while daughters Venezuela, Valencia, and Athena looked lovely in white dresses. Paris and Tyson, who are both Irish Traveller descent and were raised in Traveller communities, met at a wedding of a mutual friend when she was 15 and he was 18, and have been together ever since. They married in 2009 front of 400 friends and family before having their first child, Venezuela, later that year. In January of this year, Tyson announced his retirement from professional boxing following his second defeat to Oleksandr Usyk – after previously reigning as two-time world heavyweight champion. Paris is a model and TV personality in her own right, as well as the mother to all seven of the pair's children. She was usually present at the side of the ring for her husband during his high-profile fights prior to his retirement. In 2023, the couple and their children starred in the Netflix series 'At Home With the Furys,' which gave fans a glimpse into their real lives. Prior to his second fight with Usyk, Tyson shared that they'd lost their son earlier in 2024, right before his first fight with Usyk. More Trending While Paris was at home six months pregnant with their eighth child and Tyson was preparing for the fight, she had to make the difficult decision not to tell Tyson she'd lost the baby. Speaking on the subject for the first time, an anguished Fury told how he was shielded from the news ahead of his bid to become the division's first undisputed champion for 24 years. But he feared the worst when he learned Paris was too ill to attend the fight in Riyadh. Asked if he was planning on having any more children, he replied: 'Never say never. I only have seven.'

Inside brutal Made In Chelsea feud as 'snake' Jamie Laing leaves ex pals 'furious'
Jamie Laing has left his former Made In Chelsea friends 'furious' after allegedly causing them to be dropped from an upcoming Disney+ series, sparking outrage Jamie Laing is said to have "snaked" his former Made In Chelsea pals, leaving them enraged. The reality star turned podcast host and his wife Sophie Habboo are to star in an upcoming Disney+ series, which will document their "no holds barred" journey to parenthood. The couple, who are expecting their first child, will see Sophie's pregnancy and their day-to-day life filmed in a fly-on-the-wall series, as they attempt to move into their new family home. But it's claimed that the move has left their former pals in a state of rage. Sources have claimed that an argument has kicked off behind the scenes after a string of former stars from the E4 reality show believed they were all taking part in the series, which now focuses on Jamie and Sophie. Reports claim that Jamie and Sophie have been "snaking" their pals and have been accused of "hijacking" the lavish deal with the streaming giant, which also airs The Kardashians. It's said that Louise Thompson and her partner Ryan Libby, Millie Mackintosh and her husband Hugo Taylor, had also been in on the deal – and had already started filming. Now, it's claimed that they have been scrapped from the line-up altogether. "They had all been signed to the top secret Disney project, and then Jamie snaked them, is what we're being told," a source said. They went on to tell The Sun that all four had signed up and started as Disney had been wanting to build it's reality TV roster. "But then Jamie and Habs got pregnant. Disney agreed the focus should be on them alone because their podcast is going great guns, they've been given a Radio 1 show, and Jamie's ultra-marathon efforts endeared him to the nation," they added. The source went on to say that Louise, Ryan, Millie and Hugo had been left "high and dry". The source continued to claim that the four had turned down the chance to appear on the Made In Chelsea spin-off, Beyond Chelsea, so had "lost money." "They're absolutely livid and feel they've been snaked. There is huge animosity and it is all incredibly awkward - not least because Chelsea isn't a huge place so they are bound to bump into one another in bars and shops, it's pretty explosive," they said. The claims of another feud come after Jamie addressed his ongoing tension with his once best pal, Spencer Matthews. The pair had once been incredibly close, but in recent years, they have drifted apart, and the reason remains unclear, as dozens of claims have been speculated about. Spencer was left off the invite list for Jamie and Sophie's first wedding in the UK two years ago. But it was later claimed that Spencer had acted badly during their second ceremony in Spain. Speaking to You Magazine, Jamie called his fellow TV star "hard to get along with" as he candidly opened up on their friendship. "Look, what can I say? I love Spencer, I really love him so much, and I don't think he'd mind me saying this… um… look, Spencer's a hard person to be friends with," he said. "We were thick as thieves for a long time, but I think what happens is family and life. From my side, I have no jealousy towards him whatsoever. I only love and adore him more than anything in the entire world. I still consider him one of my closest friends, and I'm godfather to his daughter. But, yeah… I mean… You would have to ask him."
