Gracie, 20, might have two acting parents but so far it seems she's determined to carve out a career as a talented musician.
Posting to one of her Instagram accounts, she shared a snap of her grandfather and wrote: "Love letter to my guitar - My Grandad bought me my first guitar in Prague when I was 8 years old.
"I'd go out wearing it on my back to show it off because I was so proud… Since then, there is rarely a day that goes by where I don't play it. I love my Guitar and I love my Grandad even more."
So who are Gracie's parents?

Actors Anna and David met in 2001 while on a flight to Cannes, and instantly clicked. The couple then welcomed baby Gracie in July 2005.
They stayed together for nearly a decade, splitting in late 2010 amid busy schedules and long-distance strains – Anna acknowledged they 'grew apart' and agreed 'this isn't working any more'.
Still, they remain incredibly close and co‑parents – Anna said, "He's a great dad and lives just across the road… We're the best of friends."

I've dated both men and women… I know which sex is easier, says Naked Attraction host Anna Richardson

SHE'S best known for hosting Channel 4's controversial Naked Attraction, but Anna Richardson's own love life is almost as intriguing as the TV dating show. Following the end of an eight-year relationship with comedian and presenter Sue Perkins, Anna is now loved up with charity boss 5 Naked Attraction host Anna Richardson's love life is almost as intriguing as the TV dating show Credit: Camera Press 5 Anna was in an eight-year relationship with comedian and presenter Sue Perkins Credit: Alamy 5 Anna is now loved up with charity boss Simon Marks Credit: BackGrid And she's clear that even though she puts no labels on her sexuality, she definitely finds being with a woman can be more emotionally complex. 'Dating a guy is, in some ways, less complicated,' Anna, 54, admits. 'Dating a woman means you understand each other implicitly because you're both female. 'Both parties understand that they're emotional creatures. "This can be very challenging and intense, but also very exciting. 'It's wonderful, beautiful and very complex. 'I've loved being in relationships with women, but I find that men are less complicated, less emotional. 'It's a cliché, but as long as you feed them, let them watch footie and the rest, they're happy. 'Whereas it's a whole different ball game when you're with a girl.' Anna was in a relationship with TV director Charles Martin for 18 years. Naked Attraction's Anna Richardson reveals reality of friendship with ex Sue Perkins But when that ended in 2012, she fell for But following an 'excruciatingly painful' They have now been dating for three years and Anna — candid as ever when it comes to intimacy — says 'There's something wonderful about meeting somebody new that makes you realise, 'Oh, I'm not dead from the waist down. "Actually, I can experience amazing sex like I had in my twenties',' said the 'It is possible to recapture it, but it takes work.' Ultimately, Anna insists it is not about whether her lover is male or female — it is about that all-important emotional connection. 'For me, it's about finding the person attractive rather than their sexuality,' she explains. 'Are they floating my boat? Am I into them? 'SEXUAL IDENTITY' "It doesn't matter to me what gender they are. 'I've always been really clear about it, because people do like to stick a label on you — you're gay, you're straight, you're bisexual or whatever. 'But the only label I need is my name.' Recent statistics suggest that more and more women are experimenting with their sexuality. A study by the University of Notre Dame in the US found that women were Although Anna has previously refused to label herself, insisting, 'I have never, ever called myself bisexual', she would always urge people to explore their sexual identity. 'There are far more people questioning their sexuality these days,' she says. 'It is more accepted, but people, going back millennia, have always been gender fluid. It's just the state of being human. 'But we're in the mid-2020s and, with the rise of social media and self-expression, it is more acceptable than ever before. I applaud that. 'At the end of the day, we all just want to be loved.' After three years with Simon, Anna says she is now questioning the next step in their relationship. 5 Anna was in a relationship with TV director Charles Martin for 18 years, until they split in 2012 Credit: Channel4 'We're both in our fifties and relationships are so different now to when you're in your twenties,' she says. 'We've both had broken relationships. 'I was with Sue for eight years and in a very long relationship before that. 'Simon's been through a divorce. "So yeah, we're at that stage now where we're looking at the relationship and wondering what we'll do next. 'What does commitment look like? "Neither of us is in any hurry to get married or anything, but do we move in together? I don't know.' As much as she might be smitten with Simon, the relationship guru admits there are certain benefits to living apart. 'I like my own space. If I want to drop my clothes on the floor in the bedroom, then I will,' she says. 'Do I really want a fella around all the time? And does he want me around all the time? We'll see.' As for her relationship with Sue, Anna says they have since 'I think we have brilliantly navigated coming through a painful break-up and we are now very firm friends,' she says. Being part of Naked Attraction has made me realise there is no such thing as a perfect body — and that's made me more body confident Anna Richardson 'We see each other regularly. We'll be in each other's lives, I hope, for ever. 'We formed a really beautiful friendship. We've got each other's backs and that's what it's all about.' The last series of Naked Attraction aired in March 2024 and, while there were reports that the raunchy show 'I've got everything crossed. People love it — viewers and participants,' she smiles. In an era where surgery, tweakments and social media filters can give us a distorted view of what real bodies look like, Anna says Naked Attraction proves that people come in all shapes and sizes. Hosting the show, she says, has even helped boost her own self-esteem. 'Actually, being part of 'It's made me more accepting of my body. "Whatever you've been born with is perfectly OK, and I'm just very grateful that I've got a healthy body.' For some viewers, 'I must have seen well over a thousand naked penises,' she says. 'I think I've seen every bit and bob going. 5 Anna has hosted Naked Attraction since it began in 2016 Credit: handout "I consider myself to be a kind of honorary gynaecologist, for both men and women.' With so much naked flesh on display, Anna admits that the male contestants can sometimes get a little 'excited'. She adds: 'There have been times when we've had to stop filming because some of the guys were getting a bit frisky. 'We've had to tell them to step outside the room for a few minutes, then rejoin the game when they've calmed down. 'Of course, we get peacocks — excuse the pun — on the show. You've got to be very body confident and I applaud that. "Inevitably, you get fellas who are very pleased with themselves, twitching their pecs and constantly fiddling with their kn*bs. "But that's fellas for you.' She also let slip the reason why female hopefuls ask for the air conditioning to be cranked up, adding: 'When it's cold, their nipples are harder.' 'HOLIDAY FLING' With Naked Attraction on a hiatus, Anna is currently busy with her advice podcast, It Can't Just Be Me, and a true crime podcast, The Mayor And The Mystic. She has also teamed up with iD mobile, who are encouraging Brits to enjoy holiday romances by giving customers inclusive data roaming minutes when they travel abroad. Having enjoyed an 'old-school holiday romance' herself when she was 17, Anna is all for the idea. 'I went camping in the south of France with my mates, met a local French lad called Julien and had a lovely holiday fling,' she recalls. 'We did write to each other for a bit, but sure enough, the letters fizzled out. 'Who knows what might have happened if we'd had mobiles and free data roaming back then?' Anna Richardson has partnered with iD Mobile, the UK's No1 network for roaming, to show how mobile data charges can be a major turn-off for holiday romance. See

People say I'm setting women back, but they're mums relying on boyfriends or benefits says Bonnie Blue in shocking chat

'DON'T stand too close to me, you might catch something,' quips Bonnie Blue as we pose for pics. As The Sun's Sexpert, there's not much that shocks me. I've been to swinging parties, witnessed 50-strong orgies and even taken part in an orgasm contest in New York. 5 Bonnie Blue is the disturbing reality of what happens when pornography and the world of 'influencers' collide Credit: Olivia West 5 Bonnie's controversial bonkfest during Nottingham Freshers' Week made headlines Credit: Tim Stewart 5 Bonnie has been branded as dangerous for women as toxic masculinity influencer Andrew Tate Credit: Instagram You could say I'm unshockable, and I'd have agreed with you — until Bonnie burst on to the scene. I've covered the industry long enough to know what's what, and I count porn stars, escorts and OnlyFans models as friends. But such is Bonnie's determination to perform the most degrading stunts imaginable, she's a tough one to defend. Her shock claim to fame — She has even been branded as dangerous for women as toxic masculinity influencer 'I love sex with public' So today, I'm sitting down with the 26-year-old to find out what really drives her — and maybe even get under her skin. Readers will know that The Sun does not make a habit of interviewing porn stars. But Bonnie is more than that. She is the disturbing reality of what happens when pornography and the world of 'influencers' collide, just as much a staple on the unregulated social media pages your kids scroll through as she is on adult sites. Bonnie is riding a new wave of anything-goes promiscuity that's genuinely worrying — and that's coming from someone who has built a career on being 'sex positive'. Real name Tia Billinger, she grew up in Draycott, a village between Derby and Nottingham, and was virtually unknown until she catapulted to fame in October last year. Bonnie Blue CANCELS disgusting 'petting zoo' event after extreme backlash, but reveals 10 THOUSAND men applied Her extraordinary story is laid bare in new fly-on-the-wall Channel 4 documentary, 1,000 Men And Me: The With immaculately blow-dried blonde hair and a preppy style, she's far from the stereotypical porn star. There's an old-money vibe about her — part of her appeal no doubt, and the shock factor. I ask her about being Claiming to be inspired by David Blaine, she wanted to tie herself up inside a glass box in the centre of London, which would be 'open for the public' to 'It's frustrating, I've never broken a single f * g rule,' she fumes. 'I went from "They [OnlyFans] would prefer me to do a cooking show or a dog's yoga retreat, but it's a sex site. People say I'm setting women back, but when I check their profiles, they're often stay-at-home mums relying on a boyfriend or benefits. Bonnie Blue 'I love having sex with the public and that is not going to stop. OnlyFans has tried to cancel me, but it's done the opposite.' So does Bonnie think she's setting women back with such degrading behaviour, teaching young men that it's OK to treat them as objects? 'I say I'm not a feminist, but a lot of my views are,' she says. 'I believe in equality, women being in control and not feeling intimidated by men. I do what I want, when I want, and I feel safe doing it. 'People say I'm setting women back, but when I check their profiles, they're often stay-at-home mums relying on a boyfriend or benefits — and I think, hang on a second.' Bonnie's controversial bonkfest during Nottingham Uni Freshers' Week, which saw her have sex with 150 18-year-olds — many of whom she claimed were virgins — made news. But it was her stunt in January that really caused outcry, as she claimed to have slept with over 1,000 men in 12 hours, working out at less than 45 seconds per fella. 5 Bonnie's shocking claim to fame was bedding 1,000 men in 12 hours Credit: bonnie_blue_xox/Instagram 5 A young Bonnie with with her ex Ollie Credit: Facebook She later revealed she was left covered in bruises and bite marks from the sex marathon and issued a thank-you to 'all the barely legal, barely breathing and the husbands'. One of the first things that strikes me about Bonnie is how tiny she is. When I go to give her a hug, she's so delicate and pint-sized I worry I might crush her. I can't help but think about her being thrown around in her infamous gang bangs and wonder how she wasn't seriously damaged. I imagine my young kids — already exposed to social media — stumbling across her content and shudder. I'd be heartbroken if my three-year-old daughter ever thought this was inspirational, and asked Bonnie what led her down this path. 'Everyone wants me to say I've been through something traumatic in my past,' she says. 'But it's not true. They just can't accept that I want to do this because I enjoy sex.' I enjoy sex, too, but I find it hard to believe anyone could genuinely enjoy a 1,000-strong orgy. I ask her if she actually orgasms during these stunts and how her body felt the next day. 'Oh it's completely hit and miss,' she explains. 'Even in my personal sex life, I have to remind them how I like it. "Most of these men are inexperienced, so I don't, but I enjoy giving them a good experience. My jaw hurt more than I did down there after the 1,000 challenge,' she adds nonchalantly. 'My legs were burning, too.' Some guys were just lonely and wanted a conversation, other guys wanted me to strip down within 60 seconds with a sex toy inside of me. Bonnie Blue Bonnie says she ordered a burger and watched Dexter on Netflix that evening as she was 'too excited to sleep', then treated herself to a massage and facial at a spa the next day. Another Brit OnlyFans content created, Unlike Bonnie, Lily, from Derbyshire, claims the experience left her in tears — yet she still pledged to go a step further and sleep with 1,000 men in 24 hours. But Bonnie nailed the challenge first — and in half the time. The pair previously made joint content, but Lily has since claimed their views 'don't quite align'. Last month, 'His opinion is that women have fought for years to be in control and have their say and do what they want with their bodies. I do exactly that. So if that's the outcome, so be it.' Like Andrew, she's a Marmite figure — loved by some, loathed by others — and receives hundreds of death threats a day online. 'Last time I went out by myself was six months ago,' she explains. 'It's not safe.' It's hard not to find this incredibly sad. What's the point of making big money if you can't actually enjoy it? 'I want to be the best at what I do,' explains Bonnie. 'I'm not driven by material things and would rather be at home doing a puzzle than glammed up at a red carpet event.' 'Part-time nun' When she's not filming controversial content, she spends her time fishing, surfing and doing jigsaws. She says the only time she's been hurt was when someone uploaded a photo of her late grandad and falsely claimed he had sexually assaulted her. 'My family are getting double looks in the street,' she revealed. 'It made me realise the impact I was having on my family.' So how did someone like Bonnie, who seems to have it all, end up here? 'Growing up, I loved dancing,' she explains. 'But you've got to have money to make it. All the big dance schools are in London and I couldn't even afford a train ticket there.' Bonnie was studying midwifery before she dropped out of college and worked for the NHS doing recruitment finance. She later moved to 'The move really helped me become a sex worker,' she recalls. 'It got me out of that small-town mindset where you're constantly comparing yourself to others.' She was inspired by women on TikTok flaunting their sex work earnings and decided to give it a go. 'I wanted money, freedom and to feel in control,' she says. Bonnie was racked with nerves before starting, but her ex-husband was her rock. 'My palms were sweating. I had no idea what I was doing — I didn't even know all the sex terms,' she recalls. 'I had a separate laptop next to me and any time someone asked something I didn't understand, I'd quickly Google it because I was too embarrassed to admit it. They expect me to drop my pants because they're famous. Bonnie Blue 'Some guys were just lonely and wanted a conversation, other guys wanted me to strip down within 60 seconds with a sex toy inside of me.' 'We had sex three or four times a week after watching Netflix,' she recalls. 'My friends would say they had a threesome at the weekend and I'd say, 'Oh my God that's crazy. I'd never even had a one night stand.' Bonnie separated from Ollie last year and their divorce will be finalised next month. 'I'll always love and care for my ex dearly,' she explains. 'But I didn't look at him in the end and think, 'Oh I want to have sex with you'. We became brother and sister in the end.' Bonnie tells how big celebs slide into her DMs, but she's not interested. 'They expect me to drop my pants because they're famous' she laughs. 'But unless they'll film content and be identified, I'm not going to sleep with them. I'm like a part-time nun. I'm one extreme to the next.' She would like to start dating, but it's not a priority. 'I've done what people think is happiness,' she says. 'Marriage, buying a house, a nice car, having money — and they didn't make me happy.' I like Bonnie — she's witty and self-deprecating, cracking jokes at her own expense and clearly enjoys shocking people. But I can't help wondering if it's her armour against the world. As we talk, I wonder what her life will be like five years from now. When her looks fade, will she have to go to even greater extremes for attention? 'If it doesn't make me happy, then I'll be the first to stop,' she explains. 'I'm in control.' Bonnie tells me she hopes the documentary will shift public perception — not just of her, but of the men who sleep with her. 'I want people to know these men aren't disgusting,' she says. 'They're nice people. 'I'm also happy because everyone assumes that behind the cameras, I must be crying, upset or broken — but that's not the case. 'People think I must be sick in the head to enjoy this. But I'm living a life I'm incredibly grateful for. I feel very, very lucky.' But at what cost? 1,000 Men And Me: The Bonnie Blue Story is on Channel 4 tomorrow at 10pm.

Chart topper Tyla confesses huge success of hit record Water left her feeling ‘trapped' as she releases hot new track

BECOMING an overnight sensation has proved to be a blessing and a curse for Tyla. The South African singer felt 'trapped' after her single Water reached No4 in the UK charts and was a global hit in 2023. Advertisement While her self-titled debut album was a top 20 hit the following year. At an exclusive Q&A in London last week, she explained: 'For a while, especially last year, I felt so trapped. 'Like, 'Oh my word, I blew up and I just have to have everything right and everything has to be perfect now because the world is looking.' 'It was kind of stressful for me.' Advertisement Read More on MUSIC But on Friday she released her brilliantly fun and upbeat four-track EP WWP — which stands for We Wanna Party — and it has finally given her the chance to 'experiment.' She said: 'I wasn't planning on doing this. I was just making music at the beginning of the year. It was mainly for an album. 'But as I got closer to summer, I was like, 'Hey the songs I was making were too good . . . where are the summer songs? 'We need some summer songs right now' and I am just too excited to hold on to them. Advertisement Most read in Bizarre 'I really just want people to hear it and party to it, and see how I've grown through the years and just see who I am now.' And it seems like she's more confident than ever, which isn't something she will apologise for. African singer Tyla's full-length Balmain gown, covered in sand, certainly caused problems at the 2024 Met Gala Tyla — who will perform at All Points East festival in London's Victoria Park next month — said: 'I just always knew I had something in me. 'I just always had that kind of peace knowing that this is the life I'm gonna live. Advertisement 'I don't let anybody or anything limit me or put me in a box. I think I'm just confident. 'A lot of people say arrogant, but I think everyone needs a little bit of arrogance, especially to make it in this industry and to make people believe in your music.

"The more children you have, the more laissez-faire you get about them. It's fun to have children, at any age. But if you're working, and always away, you don't get to enjoy it as much.' It looks like he found time for a hoppy birthday, at least.

Advertisement 'He's just as lovely off stage as he is on stage. He's just such an inspiring man to be around. I think he's my soul mate.' Despite his late night headliner slot, Olly Murs won the prize for the weirdest rider request of the weekend – asking for boxes of Coco Pops and Cornflakes.

With songs like Up All Night and Wreckage Of You taking pops at Ben, I think he'll be running for cover when that album drops.
