The best wines to buy from M&S this summer
Between the cyber attacks and fashion editors eulogising about the summer collections, M&S has barely been out of the headlines this year. Food sales are strong, but what is going on with M&S wine? Earlier this spring, I went to the retailer's head office in Paddington to taste some 90 samples from its current drinks range and came out with mixed impressions. Here's what I thought. The first point to make is that the bottles you're inexorably bowled towards by in-store displays, especially in travel hubs, aren't the wines that M&S does best, even if it does sell a lot of them. I'm not a fan of the somewhat sickly Bellante Prosecco and not just because the name reminds me of an unprintable insult rather than a character in Handel's opera Almira. The M&S Garganega Pinot Grigio 2024, Italy (£7), which apparently sells by the bucketload, is made by the very good Cantina di Monteforte and is perfectly fine, though rather sweet (it has more than 6g/litre of residual sugar). My tip? If you like pinot grigio, go to Morrisons and buy Gordon Ramsay Pinot Grigio 2024, Italy (11%, Morrisons, £7.50; also Tesco, £8.75 and still worth that price), which is also made by Cantina di Monteforte but which is dry, peachy and delicious. Back at M&S, other classical styles, such as the Corsican Rosé at £8.50 or the Classics No 14 Spanish Albariño (£13), err on the side of anodyne, which is often my experience of wines at M&S tastings. Strangely, perhaps, for a retailer with a reputation for excelling at basics such as plain cotton knickers and men's crew-neck sweaters, the wines that shine at M&S aren't the ones I might usually look for, they're the ones I didn't know I wanted in my life. A new star to look out for is a beautiful white from the Dão and Lafões regions of Portugal with a slightly textured feel, like pear juice mingled with woody herbs and run through with a salty charge of preserved lemon. That's M&S Found Encruzado 2024, Portugal (12.5%, M&S, £8.50), which is due in stores on June 11. It's fresh enough to drink as an aperitif but it does have good backbone and will sit well with food. Snackwise, I'm matching this with paprika Pringles. Dinnerwise, its combination of texture and tang would be good with the fatty succulence of pulled pork, while its citrus and herbal notes work well with rosemary-and-lemon chicken kebabs. The encruzado is part of an M&S range called Found, dedicated to unusual and little-known grapes, and it's under this label that you will find many of the retailer's best wine buys – and I say this as someone extremely wary of novelty for novelty's sake. Among the Found wines I'd recommend are Feteasca Alba (£7.50) from Romania (also due in stores on June 11), orange Verdil from Spain, and Found Kratosija 2024, Macedonia (13%, M&S, £8.50), a vivid, berry-scented unoaked red that is a cracking buy. My theory is that the apparently cautious approach that leaves me wanting more from some M&S wines is a blessing when it comes to grapes that might otherwise be too challenging. Many Found wines take unfamiliar flavours and wrap them into a wine that is interesting enough but, crucially, approachable and good value – the same approach the food hall has taken for many years. That's not to say Found represents the only wines I'd buy from M&S: other star buys include a cava, an English bacchus and a smoky red from South Africa, all of which you'll find recommended below.

The This Morning presenter shared her thoughts in a social media post, garnering reactions from her fans. At the age of 50, Alison, who has a 20-year-old son named Aidan Hammond from a previous relationship, took to Instagram to quash any idea that she was pregnant. The ex-Big Brother contestant and current partner to 27-year-old David Putman firmly denied pregnancy rumours in her update. Her statement read: "Lots of AI stories online about me being pregnant, I can confirm I am not having a baby as I'm not sure my 50-year-old womb could take it. However, I do think we should all dance like Meghan." Alison's post follows after Meghan Markle, aged 43, shared a joyous video dancing with Prince Harry, now 40, in anticipation of their daughter Princess Lilibet's arrival, who is four years old, back in 2021. The video was released in celebration of Lilibet's birthday just this past week. In the midst of these speculations, Alison comically mimicked Meghan, capturing herself dancing in her lounge to Baby Mama, the tune featured in Meghan's footage, thus humorously refuting the speculation regarding her own pregnancy, reports the Mirror. She further emphasised her point by sharing the clip to her Instagram Story with an overlay stating "fake news", adding in the caption for good measure: "I am not pregnant." Alison's pals and followers praised the video, with Jenni Falconer applauding: "You are just brilliant." Celebrities like Alexandra Burke and Dr Punam Krishan joined in, expressing their humour with laughing emojis. Amanda Holden, too, registered her delight with a triad of heart-eyed emojis in addition to a chuckling one. One supporter shared, " I love it." Echoing similar sentiments, another penned, "Just brilliant." A follower weighed in with, "Hysterical." Meanwhile, an individual envisioned: "You and Meghan dancing together would be the ultimate video. Make it happen, Alison." Meghan originally posted on Wednesday as a tribute to her youngest, Lilibet, on her fourth birthday. Her celebratory video depicted her dancing jubilantly beside a bed in a maternity wing, with Prince Harry by her side. Her accompanying caption read: "Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates... so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work, there was only one thing left to do."

Inside Beyonce & Jay Z's relationship rollercoaster – from ‘Becky' cheat rumours to Diddy controversy & THAT lift drama
FROM 'Becky with the good hair' rumours to Diddy controversies, Beyoncé and Jay-Z have faced plenty of challenges throughout their 25-year relationship. Despite the ups and downs, the power couple has appeared to remain strong, focusing on creating a positive impact for their three children – Blue Ivy Carter, 13, and twins Rumi and Sir Carter, seven. 11 This weekend, Beyoncé's highly anticipated Cowboy Carter tour kicks off in London, promising a stunning showcase of western-inspired fashion and an unforgettable rodeo of sights and sounds. The global icon is set to perform a two-hour, 45-minute spectacular in support of her Grammy-winning album, bringing her two daughters along for the journey. Beyoncé's music has always been at the heart of her success. However, her journey hasn't been without its share of public storms. From dodging the Diddy controversy to her sister Solange's infamous elevator incident, and those ever-persistent 'Becky' cheating rumours, their relationship has been anything but smooth sailing. Here, we delve into the drama and resilience that has defined their extraordinary 25 years together. 2000 - 2004: Dating The pair first met in 2000 at the MTV Spring Break Festival in Cancun, Mexico, when Beyoncé was 18 and Jay-Z was 30. Jay-Z later rapped about their meeting and sitting together on a flight back to New York in his 2018 track 713. Beyoncé confirmed this during an interview with Oprah, explaining that they were friends for a year and a half before dating. Jay-Z and Beyonce's $3billion net worth 'could take a big hit' after rape claims, lawyer says She said: "We were on the phone for a year and a half, and that foundation is so important for a relationship. 'Just to have someone who you just like is so important, and someone [who] is honest." Although Beyoncé has clarified she was not underage when they met, rumours about their age gap have persisted. Ignoring the speculation, the couple released Crazy in Love in 2003. While Beyoncé had already featured on Jay-Z's 03 Bonnie & Clyde, it was Crazy in Love that solidified their status as a power duo, even though they still kept their relationship under wraps at the time. It was then in 2004, the couple made their red carpet debut at the VMAs. 2008 - 2012: Marriage & child This was the year Beyoncé and Jay-Z finally tied the knot. At 26 and 38, the couple exchanged vows in an 'intimate' ceremony that remains shrouded in secrecy. 11 It is believed the wedding took place in a Manhattan penthouse. 'There was no rush - no one expected me to run off and get married,' Beyoncé later shared with Seventeen about her wedding day. 'I really don't believe that you will love the same thing when you're 20 as you do at 30. So that was my rule: Before the age of 25, I would never get married. 'I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself, and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someone else.' The Carters then went on to welcome their first child, Blue Ivy Carter, 7 January 2012. 2014: 'Billion dollars on an elevator' fight At this point, Beyoncé found herself embroiled in one of the most dramatic public controversies of her life. Her sister, Solange Knowles, was caught on video attacking Jay-Z in an elevator at the 2014 Met Gala afterparty. The altercation occurred while Beyoncé was also present in the elevator. Security footage obtained by TMZ showed Solange wildly hitting and kicking Jay-Z before a security guard intervened to restrain her. At one point, Beyoncé was seen standing between the two. The video quickly went viral, sparking widespread speculation. Though never confirmed, many believed the fight stemmed from cheating rumours surrounding the couple at the time. On May 15, 2014, the trio issued a joint statement addressing the incident. "As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. 'But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it," they said in a statement to the Associated Press. "Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. 11 'They both have apologised to each other, and we have moved forward as a united family." The statement continued: "The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false. 'At the end of the day, families have problems, and we're no different. We love each other, and above all, we are family. "We've put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same." 2016: Beyonce releases Lemonade, confirming a 'Becky' In April 2016, Beyoncé released her groundbreaking album Lemonade, which many fans believe essentially confirms that Jay-Z cheated on her. She opens with the lyric: ' You can taste the dishonesty, it's all over your breath. ' At another point, she pointedly asks: 'Are you cheating on me?' The album appeared to finally settle the speculation surrounding the infamous Met Gala elevator incident. Fans were further intrigued when Beyoncé mentioned ' Becky with the good hair, ' a phrase that quickly became a cultural talking point. Speaking about the album, Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles Lawson, said: 'It could be about anyone's marriage. 'I think that everybody at one time or another has been betrayed and lied to and it's about the pain and it's about the healing process and it's about, 'How do you get past that and move on.'' 2017: The twins are born & Jay Z talks marriage On February 1, 2017, Beyoncé and Jay-Z announced they were expecting twins with a heartfelt post alongside Beyoncé's iconic pregnancy reveal, and they were later born in mid-June that same year. 11 11 But it was later that year that got people talking as Jay-Z openly admitted to his infidelity during an interview with The New York Times' T Magazine. Reflecting on the challenges they faced, he said: 'You know, most people walk away, and like divorce rate is like 50 percent or something 'cause most people can't see themselves. "The hardest thing is seeing pain on someone's face that you caused, and then have to deal with yourself. "So, you know, most people don't want to do that. You don't want to look inside yourself." 2024-2025: Embroiled in Sean 'Diddy' Combs drama In Decemeber 2024 Jay Z and Sean 'Diddy' Combs were accused of raping a 13-year-old girl in 2000 at the VMAs afterparty, to which the rapper denied all allegations. The unnamed woman, claimed that she had been handed a glass of something that made her feel 'woozy' and recall lying down in a bedroom, in which she got raped. However, in February this year, the case was dismissed, according to a legal filing submitted in New York. At the time Jay Z denied the accusations via a post on social media, in which he wrote: 'My lawyer received a blackmail attempt, called a demand letter, from a 'lawyer' named Tony Buzbee. My wife and I will have to sit our children down, one of whom is at the age where her friends will surely see the press and ask questions about the nature of these claims Jay Z statement What he had calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make me want to settle. 'No sir, it had the opposite effect! It made me want to expose you for the fraud you are in a VERY public fashion. So no, I will not give you ONE RED PENNY!!' He continued: 'My only heartbreak is for my family. 11 "My wife and I will have to sit our children down, one of whom is at the age where her friends will surely see the press and ask questions about the nature of these claims, and explain the cruelty and greed of people.' A man accused Sean 'Diddy' Combs of sexual assault and humiliated him at a 2015 party while Beyonce and Jay Z were present. However, in April 2025 the accuser, Joseph Manzaro, filed an amendment to his lawsuit in Florida and removed the couple's name from his lawsuit. 11
