Festival Foods unveils record-breaking cherry display in De Pere
The display, unveiled Wednesday, measures nine feet wide, 30 feet long, and six feet tall. Each cherry was hand-picked from Pacific Northwest orchards.

Shoppers who can't make it to the store can view the display on Festival Foods' social media pages and enter a contest by commenting their guess on how many cherries make up the display. The four closest guesses will each win a $50 Festival Foods gift card.
The event celebrates what the company calls 'summer's sweetest harvest,' in partnership with Superfresh Growers — a leading grower and shipper of Northwest cherries — and Crazy Fresh, a produce partner to Festival Foods.

Described as 'the diamonds of summer,' each cherry was grown and harvested by family farms in the Pacific Northwest. Dave Gleason, horticulturist and grower with Superfresh Growers, was on-site Wednesday until 5 p.m., offering samples and answering questions from curious shoppers.
'We couldn't be more excited to bring this spectacular cherry display to De Pere,' said Andrew Brehmer, Senior Director of Produce & Floral at Festival Foods. 'It's a testament to our commitment to celebrating high quality seasonal produce. Working alongside Crazy Fresh and Superfresh Growers, we're proud to highlight the story and quality behind every cherry.'

Ed Sheeran will need bodyguards until he dies
Ed Sheeran is convinced his family will need round-the-clock security protection until he dies. The pop star - who lives on a sprawling estate in Suffolk with his wife Cherry and their two children - has round-the-clock security protection in place and he's convinced they will need bodyguards "until I pass away" because of the "sinister" incidents that have taken place. During an appearance on Australia's 60 Minutes show, Ed explained: "It's things that people don't really even take into account. "Like kidnap threats and s*** like that. We've had attempted break-ins, things left on my car. It's way more sinister than just fans turning up and wanting selfies. "We have a level of security that probably won't change until I pass away. That's just our life now." Ed went on to confess he's also had some ugly rows with fans who have tried to take pictures while he's with his kids, Lyra, four, and Jupiter, three. He added: "I've had some real arguments before. I'm fine with taking pictures, but I just think it's weird with a four-year-old and a three-year-old ... "To be within the public sphere, you have to take it all, the good and the bad. But I think I would definitely want a more normal life for my kids ... "I want to still tour and have people come to the gigs and yes, I still want to make records and write songs every day. "But there's just a new set of challenges that I want to explore now, and that is having a family and being a dad." Ed previously revealed he stepped up security measures to protect his family after a "couple of weird things" have happened including an attempted break-in. During an appearance on The Louis Theroux Podcast, Ed explained: "I do think that there is a different kind of normal that is our business. I have like 24-hour security on my house. I have security with my kids. "I have security with me. I have security with my wife, just because there have been a couple of weird things over the years that have happened.' Just so you know there's lots of dangerous people out there. We've had like you know a break-in attempt. "In my industry, that's normal. That's kind of like an underlying thing that no one really talks about, but that is kind of a part of being in the public eye." Ed also revealed he rarely takes his children on outings in public because he's so concerned about them being photographed. He added: "I'm very, very private about my children's image ... I can't take them to zoos or parks or anything really without someone trying to film them. "There are times where the normal parts of life I kind of mourn for and wish I could push my kid on a swing in a public park and it not be weird, you know? ... "People go, well that's the trade-off. But my kids have not signed up to that."

Jessica Alba, ‘Top Gun: Maverick' actor spend time in Cancun as she embraces single life: report
Jessica Alba appears to be enjoying her summer after filing for divorce from her estranged husband, Cash Warren. Alba, 44, sparked romance rumors after she was spotted boarding a plane headed back to Los Angeles from Cancun with "Captain America" star Danny Ramirez, TMZ reported. The outlet reported that the two spent time together in the sun-soaked town. Despite the reported quick getaway, sources told People magazine that Alba isn't dating anyone seriously, and is instead relishing in her new role as a single woman months after the "Honey" actress petitioned a Los Angeles court to end her 16-year marriage. In video obtained by TMZ, Ramirez, 32, and the "Fantastic Four" actress both attempted to go incognito by wearing snapback hats as they left Mexico for L.A. on Sunday afternoon. Upon arrival in the City of Angels, Alba and Ramirez walked closely together as they were escorted through a private terminal by a security guard. Alba and Ramirez's representatives did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. Ramirez portrayed Lt. Mickey "Fanboy" Garcia in "Top Gun: Maverick," and played Falcon in "Captain America: Brave New World." He'll reprise his Marvel character for "Avengers: Doomsday," which also stars Robert Downey Jr., Pedro Pascal and Chris Hemsworth. Alba has reportedly been on a few dates since announcing her split from Warren in February, insiders told People. "She's been getting a lot of attention since the divorce. She's flattered and definitely enjoying being single again," sources said. "She's gone on some dates, but it's nothing serious — she's focused on herself and her kids. She's not interested in a relationship right now." The mother-of-three is "excited" to dive back into work, and will soon begin filming "The Mark" in Australia with Orlando Bloom, who recently ended his engagement with Katy Perry. "She's in a great place. She's excited to get back to filming. She's doing what she loves and keeping her circle tight," the source told People. In January, the Honest Co. founder announced her split from Warren after 20 years together. "I've been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years – both as an individual and in partnership with Cash," she wrote on Instagram. "I'm proud of how we've grown as a couple and in our marriage over the last 20 years and it's now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals." She added, "We are moving forward with love and kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family. Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time." Alba and Warren met on the set of "Fantastic Four" in 2004 and tied the knot in 2008. In the divorce petition filed in February and obtained by Fox News Digital, the pair requested joint custody of their three children — Honor, 16; Haven, 13; and Hayes, 7.
