Sir Terry Wogan's wife Lady Helen leaves huge sum in her will after sad death
Sir Terry Wogan's wife Lady Helen has left a huge sum in her estate, which will be shared between her three children and five grandchildren Sir Terry Wogan's wife Lady Helen left millions of pounds in her estate. Terry was a British icon and his loyal wife of 51 years stood by his side throughout his entire life. Terry died in 2016 at the age of 77 whilst Lady Helen passed away last year, leaving a huge sum in her will. She died last year at the age of 88, leaving behind three children, who will now inherit her fortune. In a statement at the time of her death, their son wrote at the time: "Lady Helen Wogan - 1936-2024. Our beautiful Mum left us last night after a fantastic life. From a young Irish rose to Lady Wogan , she was the epitome of style and grace. "A Mother, Grandmother and Wife, with love and kindness at her core. A strength and a belief that saw her through many of life's trials. A sense of humour and a turn of phrase that would have you in fits of laughter. "A proper lady in every sense of the word. Her and Dad are hopefully sharing a vodka martini and hoping we don't make too much of fuss. We love you Mum, now and forever." Lady Helen left a huge £4,948,334 in her will, with the total being reduced by £31,000 to £4,917,989 following the removal of costs and fees, documents signed off by the High Court reveal. It has also been reported by The Sun that Lady Helen left two tax free gifts to two of her children - £850,000 to her son Alan Wogan, who is an executor, and also £750,000 to their daughter Katherine. Each of Terry and Helen's grandchildren have also been given a £100,000 trust, which they can access when they turn 25. The rest of their possessions and money will be split between their three living children - Mark, Alan and Katherine. Sir Terry Wogan died of cancer back in January 2016. A family statement, issued by the BBC, said at the time: "Sir Terry Wogan died today after a short but brave battle with cancer. He passed away surrounded by his family. While we understand he will be missed by many, the family ask that their privacy is respected at this time." Terry passed away just a few months after his final show on Radio 2, where he announced he had prostate cancer. He pulled out of Children In Need later that month due to health reasons.

Sabrina Carpenter takes savage swipe at ex Barry Keoghan as she announces new single
SABRINA Carpenter has made a not-so-thinly veiled jab at her ex Barry Keoghan with the announcement of her new single. The Taste singer, who is known for her playful and sexual lyrics and stage show, teased her new single yesterday with a cheeky clip of her hitch-hiking in bum-exposing shorts. 6 Sabina Carpenter has teased her new single Credit: Instagram / sabrinacarpenter 6 The star teased 'this song is about you' – with fans assuming she means Barry Keoghan Credit: Getty 6 Barry and Sabrina had a year-long romance that ended in December last year Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk Now she's revealed the name of the song – and made it known it was about someone in particular. Taking to Instagram, she captioned the clip: 'this one's about you!! 'Manchild' is out this Thursday 6/5 8pm EST♥️ special 7' vinyl available now'.' A teaser of the vinyl also revealed the words: 'Inside of your head when you've just won an argument with a man.' While Sabrina didn't explicitly say it was about Irish actor Barry Keoghan – who is set to play Ringo Starr in the upcoming four-part Beatles biopic film series – fans wasted no time in believing it was about the pair, considering their split last year. Sabrina and Barry were first connected in September 2023, making their first public appearance together at Grammys after-party in February 2024. They later attended the MET Gala together, with Barry being seen on the side of the stage throughout some of Sabrina's performances. The actor, who shot to fame in Saltburn and Banshees of Inisherin, later had a starring role in her music video for Please Please Please, which depicts the story of a woman deciding to ignore warnings for a potential romance, but begging her love interest not to embarrass her. However, in August, The Sun on Sunday confirmed Barry had been dumped by Sabrina for the first time after she grew tired of his party lifestyle. A source said at the time: 'Barry acts like an idiot when he is drunk and Sabrina was getting increasingly frustrated. 'He has always been a party animal and Sabrina was fed up with his antics. She is soaring in the charts and is putting herself first as she gears up for her tour next month.' Romantic dinners, racy shoutouts and sexy video cameos - a timeline of Sabrina Carpenter & Barry Keoghan's relationship While they later reconnected, they officially ended for good in December. It was believed that a combined pressure of her skyrocketing fame and tour schedule, plus his workload and party lifestyle, ultimately made the relationship unviable. A source told People: "They are both young and career-focused, so they've decided to take a break." 6 Sabrina has become known for her playful and raunchy lyrics Credit: Rex 6 The couple split reportedly over Barry's party lifestyle Credit: Social Media Collect
