Comedian Dawn French apologises for posting controversial Israel-Hamas video
Comedian Dawn French apologises for posting controversial Israel-Hamas video The Vicar Of Dibley actress Dawn French has apologised for a video she posted online regarding the Israel-Hamas conflict, saying she "clumsily used a mocking tone" and it "appeared one-sided" Dawn French publicly apologised following the controversial video (Image: undefined via Getty Images ) Comedian Dawn French issued an apology after her attempt at satire on the Israel-Hamas conflict fell flat with audiences, accepting she "clumsily used a mocking tone" which "appeared one-sided." The Vicar Of Dibley star took to social media earlier this week with a video where she alternated between her regular voice and a higher-pitched imitation. In a video addressing the conflict, she said: "Complicated, no, but nuanced", while concluding with a firm "Bottom line is, no." In a higher-register she quipped: "Yeah, but you know they did a bad thing to us." However, in light of criticism, Dawn has removed the contentious video from X and shared an apology, stressing that her aim was never "to mock, or dismiss, or diminish the horror of what happened" on October 7, 2023. Her latest statement on Saturday, opened with: "Ok, it's important to address this. "I posted a video in the style I've been using for social media in an effort to convey an important point. I clumsily used a mocking tone." She stated explicitly: "My intention was NEVER to mock, or dismiss, or diminish the horror of what happened on 7 October 2023 and what continues to unfold from that brutal unthinkable, unforgivable, savage attack." Article continues below She emotionally added, "My heart broke for the many innocent people and their families that were killed, tortured, r@ped and kidnapped. The fact that hostages are still held is utterly appalling. "My intention was to mock and point the finger of shame at the behaviour of the cruel leaders on ALL sides of this atrocious war, who have continued to behave like the worst, dangerous, sickening bullies and seem to relish the tyrannical and childish one-up-manship of the violence. "THEY were my target, but clearly I failed to do that, and that's on me. I apologise unreservedly. "I'm particularly sorry that my disgust at Hamas didn't figure. It appeared one-sided, and that is wrong. "I am a person, who like many others, is feeling increasingly helpless and hopeless as we witness the carnage and destruction worsen. "The images of starving and wounded children have haunted me day and night. History has taught us never to stand by and allow this kind of inhumane violence to be wrought on anyone, especially innocent children. Article continues below "I have felt my silence is complicit or even somehow sanctioning. So in my small way I wanted to voice my desire to say NO – to BOTH sides – to any further violence. "I hope you will understand my intention was not to offend, but clearly I have. For which I'm sorry and I have removed the video." For the latest TV and showbiz news sign up to our newsletter

Tennis star Aryna Sabalenka's mega rich new boyfriend after tragic death of famous ex
Tennis star Aryna Sabalenka's mega rich new boyfriend after tragic death of famous ex Aryna Sabalenka is preparing to face Coco Gauff in the French Open final on Saturday, with the Belarusian looking to win her first Grand Slam title in Paris Aryna Sabalenka poses with Georgios Frangulis (Image: 2024 Getty Images ) Aryna Sabalenka stands on the cusp of her first French Open championship, provided she can clinch a victory over Coco Gauff in Saturday's showdown. The Belarusian powerhouse, with three Grand Slam victories to her name, has historically found the clay courts of Paris challenging. Her stunning triumph over top pick Iga Swiatek in the semi-finals leaves just Gauff between her and the coveted title. Currently reigning as the world number one, Sabalenka's form seems unstoppable, bolstered by the presence of her partner Georgios Frangulis, the prosperous CEO of Oakberry acai who's often seen cheering her on. Frangulis, a Brazilian of Greek heritage, who began his romance with Sabalenka last year, is frequently seen supporting her from the stands amidst her coaches. His face becoming a familiar sight at her matches, he's regularly honoured in her speeches upon winning. The influential support from Frangulis has earned high praise from Sabalenka herself, who has described his backing as "priceless", reports the Express. Their relationship came into the public eye back in May 2024 when they were spotted cosying up at the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix inside the Haas garage, a Formula One team backed by Frangulis' enterprise. Tragedy of ex boyfriend The disclosure followed closely on the heels of the profound loss Sabalenka experienced with the passing of her former boyfriend, Konstantin Koltsov. Article continues below The ex-ice hockey professional died tragically after an incident at a Miami hotel in March. Despite their separation, Sabalenka expressed deep sorrow, saying: "While we were no longer together, my heart is broken." In the world of sport, personal and commercial ties often intertwine, as demonstrated by Sabalenka's dual connection with her new boyfriend's company Oakberry. Before the previous Australian Open in January, she secured a sponsorship deal with the acai-specialising business. Oakberry's founder and CEO George Frangulis couldn't contain his excitement about partnering with the tennis ace, remarking: "Aryna Sabalenka is a great example of the future of tennis and we are working closely with her to create some really exciting things over the years." Since its inception in 2016, Oakberry has seen remarkable international growth under Frangulis's guidance, now operating in more than 35 countries and earning him an estimated fortune of £80 million. That figure significantly higher than Sabalenka's reported net worth of £14.5m from Forbes. Frangulis, who once studied law at the Fundacao Armando Alvares Penteado, isn't just running a successful business; he also occupies a crucial role in Sabalenka's life, supporting her throughout the tennis circuit. Article continues below At 36 years old, Frangulis's presence extends beyond professional support, playing a vital role in Sabalenka's personal well-being. Sabalenka has been vocal about his influence, sharing with People: "There was a really tough period where I was really happy to have him by my side, always cheering me up, always making sure that we are doing some fun stuff. "But I make sure I kind of forget about tennis and focus on the good things and enjoy my life. "Even when things are going wrong in my career, he was my biggest support and yeah, really happy to have him by my side."

You've been pronouncing Tony's chocolate wrong this whole time
You've been pronouncing Tony's chocolate wrong this whole time Tony's Chocolonely is a popular brand known for its ethical approach to chocolate - but it turns out people have no idea what the correct name is Have you been saying it wrong? (Image: undefined via Getty Images ) While browsing the chocolate section, it's difficult to overlook Tony's eye-catching packaging. The brand's vibrant and fun design makes it a favourite among many shoppers. However, despite the prominent display of the brand name on each bar, it seems a lot of people are unaware of the actual name of the brand. Tony's, a Dutch chocolate company, has gained popularity in the UK recently, largely due to its commitment to sustainability and ethical practices. The company's mission, as stated on its website, is to "end all forms of exploitation in the cocoa industry". Yet, it appears that there's been a widespread mispronunciation of the brand's name. Phoebe, an online content creator focused on interior design, revealed her shock upon discovering she had been saying the brand's name incorrectly all along, feeling as though she had been living a "lie". On her @crafternoons TikTok account, Phoebe confessed: "I just realised it's not Tony's Choco-loney. It's Tony's Choco-lonely. I've been saying Tony's Chocoloney this whole time. Tony's Chocolonely. What?" Phoebe expressed her disbelief in the video's caption, writing: "Please tell me I'm not the only one who's been getting this wrong. Tony's Chocolonely. Questioning who I really am at this point. Feels like my chocoholic status is a lie." Article continues below Content cannot be displayed without consent In response, the official Tony's account playfully commented: "Loney.. lonely.. did we change it overnight.. did we not.." And it seems other chocolate enthusiasts were similarly puzzled. One individual remarked: "No, I swear I did an assignment on this at uni about fair trade chocolate. It was Tony's Chocoloney - I think they just rebranded." Another shared a similar sentiment: "I SWEAR the name changed to lonely. It was defo Chocolony. No one can convince me otherwise." A third person expressed their surprise: "I just had to google the name to make sure you weren't messing! I've called it choco- loney too." On their official blog, Tony's addressed the confusion by confirming that the correct name has always been Chocolonely. They posted: "POV [point of view]: You've been saying our name wrong all this time. We're lone-ly, not loney." They further explained the origin of their name, starting from 2003 when journalist Teun, also known as Tony, van de Keuken undertook an investigation into "human rights abuses in the cocoa industry on a Dutch TV show called Keuringsdienst van Waarde." Researching in Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire, they reportedly found the illegal labour problems in these countries to be quite severe. Their investigations claimed that 1.56 million children were illicitly working on cocoa farms. After discovering his concerns about industry issues were falling on deaf ears, he opted to set a precedent himself. In 2005, ethically sourced cocoa beans became the foundation of his chocolate bars. Article continues below The company's website provides some backstory: "'Cause Tony is easier to pronounce than Teun, he decided to brand these bars 'Tony's Chocolonely' – a nod to Teun's lonely fight against exploitation in the cocoa industry."
