In an Instagram post celebrating her graduation, she wrote: "As I look back and reflect on my college experience, I can't help but acknowledge how monumental each of these years has been in shaping me into who I am today.
"From navigating the loss of my mother to the whirlwind of unexpected overnight fame, Alabama has been the one constant through it all- continually welcoming me with open arms and keeping me grounded in who I am.
"Though my college journey was far from typical, I've found such beauty and comfort in the abnormalcy of it all, trusting that everything unfolded in alignment with Gods divine timing.
"This has been such a beautiful chapter in the story of my life—one I'll look back on often.
"And while it's bittersweet that it's come to an end a year early, I know that wherever my path leads next, Alabama will always be sweet home to me."
Sydney's wild new life has thrown some amazing opportunities her way, including attending the Grammys and spending her summer at events such as Coachella.

BBC Strictly major shakeup as two new stars confirmed for 2025

Two fresh faces are joining the BBC Strictly pro cast this year as new pictures show this year's lineup heading to rehearsals. The countdown to the next series of BBC Strictly Come Dancing is now well and truly on, with the pro dancers being confirmed for series 23. After much speculation over the past week about who will hit the famous dance floor in the autumn, rumours were circulating about the latest round of celebrities set to take part, and which pros will return. ‌ New dancers were being tipped for the next season, including So You Think You Can Dance star Alexis Warr and Australia's Dancing With The Stars season three's Julian Caillon, and now it's been confirmed by BBC bosses they are part of the 2025 line-up. ‌ An official announcement on Instagram reads: 'Please welcome our two new Strictly Professional Dancers! Alexis Warr and Julian Caillon join the Strictly Come Dancing family when the series returns this autumn on #iPlayer." ‌ As the news was revealed, the new pros were spotted heading to BBC rehearsal studios in London alongside the likes of fan favourites Gorka Marquez, Nancy Xu, Kai Widdington, Nadiya Bychkov and last year's winner, Dianne Buswell. Co-star Neil Jones was quick to reply to the official announcement online as he sent well wishes to his new colleagues. He said: "Oh @julian_caillon it was going so well until you said Chelsea FC but anyway. Welcome to the fam and @alexis_warr it's a pleasure to welcome another redhead see you both in rehearsals." ‌ Nancy Xu added: "Welcome to the family can't wait to start it!!!!! @alexis_warr @julian_caillon. And Luba Mushtuk said: "Congratulations @alexis_warr @julian_caillon. Exciting times ahead!!!!! Looking forward to meeting you both very soon." ‌ Gorka soon chimed in as he said: "Welcome to the team guys! @alexis_warr @julian_caillon." Karen Hauer added: "Welcome to strictly!! @alexis_warr @julian_caillon." Also pictured making their way to rehearsal studios were Michelle Tsiakkas, Lauren Oakley, Amy Dowden, and Johannes Radebe. ‌ As the dancers got back to work, Amy revealed on Sunday night that she was feeling "grateful" to be returning for her ninth year on the BBC dance-floor. The Welsh star was forced to withdraw early during last year's series due to an injury following a gruelling cancer battle in 2023. Amy, 34, underwent a mastectomy and chemotherapy after receiving her breast cancer diagnosis in 2023. In a post to her 705k followers on Instagram, Amy said: "Feeling grateful, grounded, and SO excited for @bbcstrictly rehearsals to start tomorrow. ‌ "Year 9 – let's go!" The show is set to get into swing in September and rumoured celebrities set to take part include Stacey Solomon, Paul C Brunson, Dani Dyer, Ashley Cain, and Angellica Bell. ‌ Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Another fan asked: "Was the fillers just in your lips?" Most devastating soap deaths SOAP viewers are frequently left heartbroken after watching some of their favourite characters bite the dust. Here is a list of the most devastating deaths that have taken place in soapland over the years. EASTENDERS Barry Evans - Evil Janine (Charlie Brooks) lured her trusting fiance to Scotland for a quickie marriage after learning he was dying. Her plan to inherit Barry's fortune was thwarted when Barry told her that the doctors had mixed up his medical files. Furious that she was no longer set for a windfall, she pushed Barry off a cliff after telling him their love was 'fake'. Bradley Branning - Bradley was accused of killing Stacey Slater's rapist Archie Mitchell (Larry Lamb) after he punched him twice on the night he died. He was spotted in the Square by a police woman who chased him up a fire escape. Bradley lost his balance and tragically plunged to his death. CORONATION STREET Tina McIntyre - Tina was getting it on with Peter Barlow - despite him being married to Carla Connor. When she threatened to reveal the truth, Carla's brother Rob got into a physical altercation with her. Tina lost her footing and fell off a balcony - then warned Rob she was going to tell the cops he pushed her. In a panic, Rob brutally clobbered her over the head with a metal pipe. Molly Dobbs - Molly was one of the victims in Corrie's 2010 tram crash, alongside Ashley Peacock (Steven Arnold). Married to Tyrone (Alan Halsall), Molly had been having an affair with Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) in the months before her death. This resulted in the birth of their son, Jack (Kyran Bowes), who was named after Jack Duckworth. As fate would have it, Kevin's wife Sally (Sally Dynevor) was by Molly's side in her final moments. Sally was stunned as Molly confessed Kevin was Jack's father, before dying of her injuries. Vera Duckworth - Having appeared regularly in Corrie since the 1970s, there was no denying Vera Duckworth was an iconic character. Alongside her husband Jack, the pair formed one of the soap's most beloved couples. Viewers were heartbroken when Vera was killed off in 2008, being discovered having passed away peacefully in her chair. Liz Dawn, who played Vera, made a brief return two years later for Bill Tarmey's exit as Jack. Paul Foreman - Fans were heartbroken when Paul Foreman succumbed to his illness after battling motor neurone disease. Introduced in 2018 as David Platt's (Jack P. Shepherd) cellmate, he later embarked on a romance - and marriage - with vicar Billy Mayhew. The MND storyline was announced in 2023 - with the expectation it would result in the character's death. EMMERDALE Sarah Sugden - After the family got into financial problems, Sarah's son Andy (Kelvin Fletcher) decided to make some quick cash from an insurance company by setting fire to the Sugden barn. He didn't realise his mum was inside the building, and she got trapped in the blaze. Nine villagers - The shocking 1993 plane crash episode brought in 18 million viewers for Emmerdale. Mark Hughes was killed by a falling wall, Archie Brooks was burned by jet fuel, Elizabeth Pollard was killed by debris and newcomer Leonard Kempinski died in a car crash caused by the crash. Five other non-recurring characters from the village also died. HOLLYOAKS Carmel McQueen - The talented singer died in shocking scenes when a train crashed into a her family's car. Carmel managed to free her cousin Theresa from the rubble - but got stuck in it herself. Moments later the train exploded and Carmel died in the arms of her family members, promising to be their guardian angel. To which Rita replied: "Lips and cheeks", while adding an 'X' to the end. Elsewhere, the star's famous uncle has suggested how she could return to EastEnders. Lord Alan Sugar, 78, who many know as the star of The Apprentice, is her uncle by marriage. Rita recently shared a TikTok video of the pair jokingly discussing how she could possibly return to EastEnders.

Chris Hughes hits back as he's cruelly branded ‘creepy' by troll for JoJo Siwa romance

Chris told the trolls to unfollow him if they didn't like what they saw clap back Chris Hughes hits back as he's cruelly branded 'creepy' by troll for JoJo Siwa romance Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CHRIS Hughes has reacted to ongoing trolling by people who say he is "creepy" for his relationship with JoJo Siwa. The former Love Islander, 32, met the 22-year-old American pop star in this year's Celebrity Big Brother house where their relationship blossomed before the country's eyes. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Chris Hughes hit back at trolls who questioned his relationship with JoJo Siwa Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk 4 They called the couple 'creepy,' but Chris was having none of it Credit: itsjojosiwa/Instagram 4 Chris and JoJo have been dating since meeting earlier this year Credit: Chris Hughes / Instagram Wanting to show off their romance, Chris recently posted a series of loved-up snaps with JoJo to his Instagram account. The carousel of photos included them gazing lovingly at each other, sharing kisses, lounging at home, playing sports including tennis and golf, spending time with family, and soaking up some sun poolside. Chris captioned the post: "Just everything. Missing you," and added a series of emojis, including a white love heart. While Chris received mainly positive comments from his 2.2 million followers, other people were not so kind, but the TV star did not shy away from standing up for himself. One troll named Pauline wrote: "Does anybody else find this creepy," to which Chris responded, "No Pauline, you're miserable, p**s off kindly," and she retorted, "lol we see long it lasts." Christ wrote back to her: "Yeah again, you don't need to speak, you don't follow me, respectfully do one thank you." But the trolling did not end there with another hater named Liz writing: "Mate sort yourself out. You would do anything for fame," and a fan of Chris stepped in to defend him: "Oh Liz, imagine hating someone who's just living and happy. Misery aren't you." Liz replied: "I don't hate anybody sweetheart I just live in the real world," and Chris responded to her, "the real world! online bullies are the real world apparently." The experience of online trolling and bullying were very common for the famous pair and could trigger intense emotions, as was proved recently when Chris accidentally triggered memories of abuse from bullies for Jojo. The singer took to Instagram to share a video of the pair as she said: 'I'm drying my hair right now and he goes, 'You have a really good hairline'.' JoJo Siwa breaks down in tears after boyfriend Chris Hughes accidentally triggers memories of bully abuse As the two laughed, Chris added: 'You do have a good hairline, I don't get what's making you laugh.' JoJo said: 'No, it's making me cry, that's the number one thing I was bullied for as a kid.' As Chris comforted his girlfriend, she opened up: 'That's destroyed me over the years and you've just said it out of literal nowhere and it was really nice.' The Love Island star proceeded to wipe JoJo's tears from her face with a tissue as the couple hugged in a sweet embrace. JoJo previously revealed she experienced a stress rash as a child, which caused hair loss on one side of her head. This was made worse by the tight hairstyles she wore for dance performances, with the Dance Moms star being known for her signature ponytail.
