Billionaire Sunjay Kapur — Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband — dies after ‘swallowing a bee' at polo tournament in UK
LONDON, June 14 — Sunjay Kapur, a prominent Indian businessman and former husband of Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, has died after suffering a heart attack during a polo match at Smith's Lawn in Windsor. He was 53. Kapur, who owned the Aureus Polo team and served as Chairman and Non-Executive Director of the automotive giant Sona Comstar, collapsed on the field on Thursday while playing for the Sujan Indian Tigers in the Cartier Trophy Semi-Finals. The Guards Polo Club confirmed his death in a statement yesterday, saying he became 'unwell when playing in a match at Smith's Lawn.' The club expressed 'deepest condolences to his wife, Priya Sachdev, his children, the wider Kapur family and his Aureus team-mates.' While initial reports cited a heart attack, The Mirror reported that Kapur's cardiac arrest was triggered by an allergic reaction after a bee stung him in the mouth during the game. He reportedly told those around him, 'I've swallowed something,' before collapsing. Anaphylactic shock, described by the Mayo Clinic as a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction, can cause sudden drops in blood pressure and restrict breathing. Kapur is believed to have gone into shock shortly before his heart stopped. Sona Comstar, which Kapur inherited from his father Dr Surinder Kapur in 2015, also confirmed the news, calling him 'a visionary leader' who transformed the company 'into a global mobility technology company built on innovation, sustainability, and purpose.' 'For all of us who had the privilege of working with him, his passion, foresight, and relentless commitment to excellence will always remain a guiding light,' the company said. Kapur had a personal fortune estimated by Forbes at US$1.2 billion (RM5.1 billion). Kapur was previously married to Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, with whom he had two children, Samaira and Kiaan. He later married model Priya Sachdev, with whom he had a son, Azarias. Just hours before his death, Kapur had posted a message on X (formerly Twitter) responding to a fatal plane crash in Ahmedabad: 'Terrible news of the tragic Air India crash in Ahmedabad. My thoughts and prayers are with all the families affected. May they find strength in this difficult hour.'

Michael Tait, Christian Singer, Admits to "Unwanted" Touching of Men
Originally appeared on E! Online Michael Tait is taking accountability. After he was accused of sexual assault and drug abuse by multiple people, the Newsboys singer spoke out on the allegations, which the accusers said took place between 2004 and 2014. "Recent reports of my reckless and destructive behavior, including drug and alcohol abuse and sexual activity are sadly, largely true," Tait wrote in a statement shared to his Instagram June 10. "For some two decades I used and abused cocaine, consumed far too much alcohol, and, at times, touched men in an unwanted sensual way." The four-time Grammy winner went on to say that he's taking full responsibility for the incidents described in the reports, which were first published by Christian media outlet The Roys Report on June 4. "I am ashamed of my life choices and actions, and make no excuses for them," Tait continued. "I will simply call it what God calls it—sin. I don't blame anyone or anything but myself. While I might dispute certain details in the accusations against me, I do not dispute the substance of them." More from E!

For one, he stepped away from Newsboys in January, leaving behind remaining members Jody Davis, Duncan Phillips, Jeff Frankenstein and Adam Agee. "I did so to get help," Tait said of quitting the Christian rock group. "I was not healthy, physically or spiritually, and was tired of leading a double life. I spent six weeks at a treatment center in Utah, receiving help that may have saved my life from ultimate destruction." And while the former DC Talk frontman said he's been "clean and sober since," he admitted that he still has "lots of hard work" ahead of him, and he said he'll forever live with the shame of "living two distinctly different lives." As Tait put it, "I have hurt so many people in so many ways, and I will live with that shameful reality the rest of my life. I can only dream and pray for human forgiveness, because I certainly don't deserve it." "I have even accepted the thought that God may be the only One who ultimately and completely forgives me," he continued. "Still, I want to say I'm sorry to everyone I have hurt. I am truly sorry." Less than a week before Tait's confession, The Roys Report published a report accusing Tait of sexual assault and drug abuse that was sourced by over 50 people, three of whom were men who said they experienced his nonconsensual sexual advances when they were in their early 20s. Since the report's release, Tait's Newsboy bandmates have also spoken out on the allegations. 'Last night our hearts were shattered when we read the news alleging drug abuse and inappropriate sexual actions by our former lead singer, Michael Tait,' the band wrote on Instagram June 5. 'First and foremost, our hearts are with the victims who have bravely shared their stories. If you are a victim, we urge you to come forward." They added, "We absolutely do not condone any form of sexual assault.' For free, confidential help, call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 or visit
