Influencer Ashy Bines performs very saucy act for date night with husband Steven Evans - and slams 'Karens' who say it's 'too much'
The fitness influencer, 35, put on a raunchy show for her hubby in videos shared to Instagram on Saturday, as she gave him a 'sexy' lap dance.
However, it would seem some critics slammed the online personality in her private messages, as moments later she hit back at 'Karens' saying the post was 'too much'.
The debacle began with Ashy posting a photo to her Stories which showed Steven beaming as she sat in his lap while wearing black lingerie and heels.
'Had the best date night!' Ashy began in the caption.

'A couples dance (lap dance lesson) at @hbmthestudio! @myshajacksonn made us feel so comfortable, sexy and empowered!' she added.
Ashy then shared a video of herself performing a sensual lap dance for her husband in a red-lit room, gyrating in front of him on the ground as she flashed her derriere.
However, Ashy's shining moment soon came to a halt as just moments later she posted a message to her Stories slamming her critics.
'Judgy Karen's just unfollow if this is "too much for you",' she said.
'I also get it. I use to feel uncomfortable watching this type of content too.
'But I'm so grateful for the women who posted and inspired me to give it a go, have more fun, connect with my body more and after becoming a mum, realise I can still feel sexy, be sexy and after 17 years with Steve, can proudly say we are more connected and alive than ever.
'Feeling like you're disconnected from your body? Or wanting more exciting date night? Are wanting to bring more play and pleasure into your life?
'Try something new, book the class, have fun, try new things! Tonight was so fun!'
However, it would seem some critics slammed the online personality in her private messages, as moments later she hit back at 'Karens' saying the post was 'too much'
It's not the first time Ashy has had to hit back at critics in recent months.
In May, the influencer was enjoying a Bali getaway with her She Rises podcast co-host Tijana Bundalo when haters slammed her for leaving her husband and two children behind in Australia.
Ashy took to Instagram at the time to inform her followers she wasn't interested in living by anyone else's 'rulebook'.
'People will tell you how to live, what's wrong with you and your life, and project their own 'rules' and beliefs onto you,' she began the long-winded post.
'If you live by their rulebook, you'll never feel truly happy or free to just be YOU.'
Ashy then called out some of the criticisms she's received since touching down in Bali and documenting her trip on social media.
'Some comments while I'm in Bali include: 'You should be with your family"; 'Good mums don't leave their kids behind on a holiday"; 'Such a selfish mum and partner'; 'Poor Steve having the kids to himself while you relax in Bali"; 'Mums shouldn't wear that; how embarrassing",' she added.
The mum-of-two then refuted the claim her trip was unfair on husband Steve and their children Taj and Tala.
'Steve is incredibly supportive and a very capable, hands-on father. I refuse to live my life or neglect my own needs because of what others think,' she said.
'I won't put myself last or stop spending time with my friends, going on holiday, or pursuing my passions just because people label me as selfish or a bad mum.'
Rounding out the post, Ashy said being a mother should not preclude her from doing 'silly TikToks', being sexual, expressing herself and travelling.

Inside Yahoo Serious' Hollywood downfall, from having the world at his feet in a $3 million mansion with his glamourous wife, to living out of his car at age 72
In 1988, an unknown bloke with a strange name from Australia's coal-mining heartland became the toast of Hollywood. Yahoo Serious blazed to international success with his film Young Einstein - which he directed and starred in - making $20 million at the box office. His professional relationship with his movie-making collaborator Lulu Pinkus - herself an acclaimed Australian actress and artist - had blossomed into romance. They married in 1989. Yahoo was on top of the world, with US media describing him as 'the next big thing from Down Under'. Which makes it all the more shocking that almost 40 years later, he is understood to be homeless in Sydney after being evicted for illegally squatting in a Palm Beach mansion. The 72-year-old was forced to flee with his Jack Russell terrier Jingle after police were called to help his landlord kick him out last Tuesday. Serious left an array of items behind in his ageing BMW sedan, which lies abandoned outside the Barrenjoey Road home, including a box of Jingle's medication, Ugg boots, a length of rope, an esky, and a cooking pan. It's understood he may still be on the city's northern beaches, given his longtime affinity for the area. In much better times, the then Mr and Mrs Serious owned a stunning house on Norma Road, which overlooked the postcard-perfect biscuit-coloured sands of Palm and Whale beaches. The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home featured a pool with a stunning vista over the Pacific Ocean, which the couple sold in 2011 for $3.1 million. It's now estimated to be worth $5.8 million. Ms Pinkus and Serious split in 2007, after working together on Einstein, Reckless Kelly (1993) and Mr Accident (2000). On his website, Yahoo described Lulu as 'My partner in everything. She is an extremely versatile artist. Lulu works so silently that few people are aware that every character and every scene is so enriched by her critical eye and deft touch.' They divorced in 2010. It's not known why they split, but it appears to mark the beginning of Serious' downward spiral. Ms Pinkus has fared far better since the divorce, moving to a waterfront apartment overlooking Sydney's Double Bay, which she bought for $1.5 million in 2011. Today, it would be worth around $2.9 million. He once lived on Palm Beach's Norma Road, with stunning views over the Pacific Ocean She was not at home when Daily Mail approached her for comment on Tuesday. Serious, apparently attached to the northern beaches, rented an apartment in Avalon, which he was evicted from in 2020 for not paying rent - and was ordered to pay his landlord $15,000 in arrears. Not long after, he was homeless and living out of his car with his dog at Palm Beach, using its public shower block for his ablutions, when kindhearted local Margie Charlton took pity on the ageing former star. She told the Daily Mail in June that she invited him to live in the granny flat at the home of Palm Beach resident Charles Phillip Porter, for whom she held power of attorney. Ms Charlton, who lived in nearby Avalon, explained that while she took care of Mr Porter's cooking and cleaning, she wanted someone around to keep an eye on her ageing charge when she wasn't there. She said it was made clear to Serious that the offer only stood until Mr Porter was moved to a nursing home when his dementia advanced so far that living in his mansion was no longer feasible. She would then need Serious to vacate the property so she could sell it to help with Mr Porter's care. But when the time came, Serious not only refused to leave - he had moved from the basement into the main house. This kick-started an ugly battle between Serious and Ms Charlton in the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal, which came to a head earlier this month. Serious was ordered to leave by August 4, and after an altercation between him and Ms Charlton on August 5 - in which he claimed she was being violent, which Ms Charlton vehemently denies - police turfed him out. In the days before his eviction, Serious claimed he was not squatting, but 'surviving'. It is understood he has been receiving treatment for Lymphoma, and indeed in the past year has appeared a shadow of his former self. 'I'm greatly improving, I was very close to death very recently … I just, I'm coming good but I'm having trouble with just, recall of day to day things,' he said during his tribunal appearance. In 2016, he underwent debilitating hip surgery. A quirky website registered to Serious in 2000 - the same year he tried and failed to sue the search engine Yahoo! for trademark infringement -provides an insight into his chaotic mind. After growing up as Greg Pead in NSW's Cardiff, near Newcastle, he explained on his site why he changed his name by deed poll in 1980. 'Each day there are a million choices to be made starting with what you put on your toast. You're born with a name but so what?' he said. 'You can choose every other aspect of your life, so why not your name?' In an undated interview posted to his site, Serious said he sees himself as, 'Nasty, untrustworthy, rude, unreliable, and childish'. A perhaps foreboding sentence uttered years before he left a trail of furious landlords in his wake. Now, grave fears are held for Serious and his dog Jingle's wellbeing. When he was forced to leave the Barrenjoey Road home, Sydney was suffering through days of cold rainstorms. Neighbours did not know where the fallen Hollywood star and his faithful dog went after being kicked out, and his car remained untouched a week after the eviction. A Daily Mail search of the Palm Beach area - where he once enjoyed prime position in the home he shared with Lulu - turned up no sign of Serious or Jingle.

Jodie Whittaker is far too good for this contrived Aussie thriller
You'd be forgiven for thinking you've seen something like this before, as the Australia-set thrillers have been coming to our screens thick and fast recently (see also The Last Anniversary, The Secrets She Keeps, Apples Never Fall). This one, which had a brief showing on Paramount+ in 2023 but is now on ITV1, stars former Doctor Who lead Jodie Whittaker. Sadly it's so lacklustre that Whittaker might wish that she'd opted to eat kangaroo genitalia on I'm a Celebrity with Ant and Dec instead. Since hanging up her sonic screwdriver, Whittaker has spread her wings in eclectic roles. She played an imprisoned single mother in gut-punch BBC drama Time and was the standout star of Netflix's factual drama Toxic Town. Here she loses her native Yorkshire tones to adopt an Australian accent. I'm no expert in Antipodean linguistics, but she does a decent job. Set on the stunning New South Wales coast, One Night follows three women – Tess (Whittaker), Simone (Nicole da Silva) and Hat (Yael Stone) – who remain haunted by a harrowing event during their teens. Twenty years later, Simone writes a thinly disguised novel about that fateful night. It reopens wounds in cathartic ways. There's the germ of an interesting drama here about trauma and truth, justice and healing. But whenever it looks about to emerge, it gets bogged down in repetitive flashbacks or clichéd contrivances. Supporting characters are uniformly ghastly – either leering small-town gangsters, spoilt kids or self-serving adults. Worst of all, there's a fatal flaw at the heart of the story. Simone stole Tess's tragedy for her own gain, yet we're supposed to sympathise as she makes her friend's pain all about her. Stretched out over six episodes, One Night moves with all the urgency of an asthmatic koala. With its ocean views and high-flying female friends, it's a try-hard Sydney spin on Big Little Lies. Whittaker is rawly convincing as a sexual assault victim whose repressed memories come bubbling to the surface. Tess is a mass of body issues: bulimic, covered in tattoos, prone to pulling her hair out. There's a wordless scene in the finale where Whittaker acts her socks off with facial expressions alone. It's just a shame the script isn't in the same league as her performance. One Night is available now on ITVX and begins on ITV1 on Saturday 16 August at 9.30pm

Ten Thousand Hours review – this superhuman squad have put in the time to stun you
This may be the ideal festival show – it has supreme levels of skill but also humour and audience participation. There are gasps and laughs and even a gymnastic game of Pictionary. Australian circus company Gravity and Other Myths have already picked up multiple plaudits for Ten Thousand Hours, originally premiered in 2024 and still packing them in. There's no shortage of Australian circus acts at the fringe, but this is one of the best. Contemporary circus isn't just about the 'ta-da!' moment: it likes to show its workings. It doesn't present tricks as magic but as hard-won rewards for the effort involved. This show is an ode to the countless hours spent building the muscle, the reflexes and the precision skills that allow you to make your living flying through the air. It's also a portrait of a group of friends having a good time. The camaraderie of the crew bounces off the stage as they set themselves challenges and games, starting fairly simply and quickly building difficulty. They do it with a light touch – there's a good bit with a trick shot of throwing a water bottle and getting it to land upright. Then, of course, the troupe casually do the same thing with people, with the same bursting sense of delight. Bodies fly from one human tower to another, spring directly from the floor up on to someone's shoulders, or jump into handstands (backwards, forwards, over the width of six people lying on the floor, balanced on someone else's hands). There's some serious gymnastics going on here; they're flipping all over the flipping place. By showing the audience different versions and slowly ramping up the difficulty, we start to notice the details – whether the acrobats in a three-man tower are holding on to each other or not, for example – things that might otherwise pass by in a blur. Complicated set pieces are deftly choreographed with impeccable timing. But there's also plenty of quirky personality, such as in a scene where they miaow like cats, or when performer Shani Stephens takes amusing suggestions from the audience in an improv bit, inventing an impromptu floor routine in the style of both a dinosaur and a drunk festivalgoer. The team's achievements might seem superhuman but this is a show full of down-to-earth charm. At Assembly Hall, Edinburgh, until 24 August All our Edinburgh festival reviews
