off stage
The 72-year-old was set to make her on stage debut across Scandinavia

Her stage debut in Cut The Crap was set to kick off in Stockholm tonight - but has been cancelled at the eleventh hour.
According to the Mirror, Oslo's Folketeateret Venue employees said the event was called off due to a "family issue".
Ozzy, 76, has been in bad health since being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and is now no longer able to walk.
He will however, perform the "greatest heavy metal show ever' for a final blow-out with Black Sabbath at Villa Park on July 5.
Wife and manager Sharon teamed up with Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi at the football ground in Birmingham earlier this year to announce the landmark gig called Back To The Beginning.
They will be joined by Metallica, Slayer, Lamb of God, Mastodon, Pantera, Anthrax and Alice in Chains.
Sharon told The Sun: 'He's very happy to be coming back and very emotional about this.
'Parkinson's is a progressive disease. It's not something you can stabilise. It affects different parts of the body and it's affected his legs.
'But his voice is as good as it's ever been.'
Sharon had promised to reveal everything about "the most challenging years of her eventful life" on her talk show tour.
The Sun has reached out to Sharon's rep for comment.

Christine McGuinness's 'pain' over married man - 'It's really upset her'
Christine McGuinness is said to be 'heartbroken' over rumours she exchanged 'flirty messages' with Dan Osborne, with the mum-of-three upset her personal life is yet again subject to scrutiny. After claims last week that Christine McGuinness and Dan Osborne exchanged 'flirty' messages as they 'supported' one another amid their respective marital woes, a source now says mum-of-three Christine is 'heartbroken' that her personal life is yet again being put through the wringer. The Sun has claimed there was a 'spark' between Christine and Dan, who are said to have been friends since 2019, but our source says that rumours of any romantic connection between the pair are simply not true. 'Christine and Dan both feel this has been blown out of proportion. Christine is heartbroken and in pain over the whole thing and can't believe it's being painted like this. They've been friends for years and have helped each other through tough times respectively, but that's literally all it is.' READ MORE: Olay Day & Night anti-ageing set that makes skin 'look much younger than my years' has £55 off Dan is thought to have recently patched things up with his wife, Jacqueline Jossa, after they publicly confirmed a brief split earlier this year – sharing loved-up snaps from holidays abroad and more recently at a wedding with friends. The couple, who share two children, have been married since 2017, but their relationship has been quite a rollercoaster – including rumours of infidelity on Dan's part. And last week, their relationship was yet again thrust into the spotlight as a source claimed to The Sun that Dan, 33, had exchanged 'flirty messages' with Christine, 37. 'Their friendship goes as far back as 2019, when Jacqueline was heading down under to the I'm A Celeb jungle and they had a brilliant night out at a fundraising gala in London. They stayed in touch sporadically and would bump into each other at events and their messages got pretty flirty,' The Sun's source claimed. They added, 'Some were seen by mutual friends. She would call him 'D' in texts and it became an open secret among their circles. There is no suggestion anything sexual happened, but it's fair to say that there was a spark between them.' Christine split from her husband of 11 years, comedian and TV presenter Paddy McGuinness, back in 2023, with The Sun claiming she met Dan later that year at a London hotel – but that 'nothing sexual' happened between them. While she may be enjoying single life, Christine is still living with ex-husband Paddy in their shared Cheshire home, having previously revealed that the dynamic works best for their children, 11-year-old twins Leo and Penelope and daughter Felicity, eight, who are all autistic, as is the former Pilgrimage star herself. Opening up on how Paddy, who the model met back in 2007, is and always will be a part of her family, whom she 'loves', Christine said recently, 'I need a connection now – something different. I really, really, honestly, I love my family, and Patrick is part of my family and he always, always will be. But now for my next relationship, I want someone for me.' The pair spend time in separate parts of their house, Christine revealed during an appearance on Elizabeth Day's How To Fail podcast, to ensure their children have 'continuity' while they are able to enjoy their own space. 'We have different wings. I always joke about [that] he is in the West Wing. We completely have our own spaces on the top floor of the house. I'm on the floor with the children and yeah, it works for us because we don't have to move the children. 'They've got that continuity and it's consistent. When they come home from school, they know where they're going to. They've got their own rooms, everything they need is in that house, and it doesn't matter too much whether it's Mummy at home or Daddy at home. With our schedules being all over the place, it doesn't affect them.' Explaining their decision to not tell the children about the split, Christine said last year, 'The children are so young and they don't understand relationships yet. I think if they did, we would have absolutely said, 'Mummy and Daddy are really good friends and we're still family forever and we absolutely love you and that will never change.' But they don't know any different and there are times when they see us when we're in the house together and we're chatting away and having a laugh and a cup of tea.' Christine was due to appear in the new series of Celebs Go Dating, which is set to air later this year, but she pulled out of the show after saying it was 'too soon' to be dating on a public platform and dealing with the attention that brings. Now, our source claims that the reports surrounding Christine and Dan are exactly the kind of thing she was hoping to avoid by pulling out of the reality show. 'This is totally what Christine didn't want. It's the reason she pulled out of Celebs Go Dating. She didn't want the attention on her life or family and neither did Paddy. They want to protect their kids' privacy,' our source said. With Dan and Jacqueline recently taking a trip abroad together to solidify their romance after their split, the source adds that Christine doesn't want to get in the way of her pal's marriage. 'Christine certainly doesn't want to look like she's had anything to do with a married man, or with any problems between Dan and Jacqueline She would never want to wade into someone else's relationship. It was only ever a friendship. Christine has a good heart and is really upset about all of this.'

Billie Piper 'let slip' she was returning to Doctor Who weeks ago
Billie Piper will be the next Doctor after it was revealed in the finale episode of the latest series last weekend - but she accidentally 'shared' the news weeks before Actress Billie Piper appeared to let slip she was returning to Doctor Who weeks before it was revealed. The 42-year-old will become the second female Doctor in the next series. So far, Jodie Whittaker is the only female to take on the iconic role. It comes after Ncuti Gatwa's shock exit during the finale of the latest series when his character regenerated into Billie in his final episode, which aired on the BBC on Saturday, May 31. Speaking in BBC Three's Doctor Who: Unleashed to mark the 20 years since the show was revived, Billie dropped a huge hint she was returning to the show for the third time, following her original appearance as Rose Tyler from 2005 to 2006 and a cameo in 2010. Asked if she would ever make a comeback in the interview filmed weeks before the news was officially announced, she said: "Yeah I would… I would come back. What's funny is that I never feel like I've left Doctor Who, because there is this huge Doctor Who afterlife." She continued: "Obviously people still really want to talk about it, it's a massive fandom, so we do conventions and we meet lots of the fans, and there's always features. It's always on the TV on some channel, and a new generation pick it up, so it never feels like it's over, like it does with all the other jobs I've done." Billie then accidentally blurted out: "So coming back is really good fun." Quickly correcting herself, she added: "So I would do it, but I still feel like I'm in it. Just a lot older." Now cat is out the bag, Billie has since said it was too good of an opportunity to turn down. In a statement, she shared: "It's no secret how much I love this show, and I have always said I would love to return to the Whoniverse, as I have some of my best memories there. So to be given the opportunity to step back on that Tardis one more time was just something I couldn't refuse." Now it is rumoured that the 10th Doctor, played by David Tennant, could also return to the show alongside Billie 20 years after they first appeared on screen together. Though if Billie is the new Doctor, it's unclear what role David would take on. A source told The Sun: "The BBC brought Doctor Who back in 2005 and there is talk about a possible one-off project to celebrate the 20th anniversary. David and Billie were a hugely popular partnership and he brought in a golden age of Doctor Who. "With the anniversary of the reboot this year there have been some ideas floated about, with the thought of maybe bringing David and Billie back together for one last hurrah. When David's Doctor bi-generated in the 60th anniversary special, his 'half' went on to live a normal life in an alternative universe while Ncuti Gatwa's carried on as the Time Lord. 'It wouldn't be beyond the realms of imagination for him to return with Billie as Rose for a one-off special to celebrate not only their partnership, but the anniversary of BBC bringing back Doctor Who." David, 54, played the 10th Doctor from 2005 to 2010 and appeared in three specials returning as the 14th Doctor before handing the role over to 32-year-old Sex Education star Ncuti. Speaking about his exit from the show after just one season, Ncuti told fans: "You know when you get cast, at some point, you are going to have to hand back that sonic screwdriver and it is all going to come to an end, but nothing quite prepares you for it. This journey has been one that I will never forget and a role that will be part of me forever. "I've loved every minute of it, but now is the time to hand over the keys to that beloved blue box and let someone else take control and enjoy it every bit as much as I have. I'll truly miss it, and forever be grateful to it, and everyone that has played a part in my journey as the Doctor." Explaining his reasons for leaving, he added: "It's a role that demands a lot of you physically and emotionally and mentally. The actors playing the Doctor are only actors playing the Doctor. Unfortunately, we are mere mortals. I would love to have the energy and the youth to be able to do this full time for the rest of my life, but my knees are telling me it's time." However, die-hard fans think there may be another reason behind his exit. Taking to X, a fan named Mr Tardis wrote: "In October 2024, Ncuti Gatwa was on 'The Graham Norton Show' saying he was going to be filming another series of DW next year. In June 2025, he officially leaves the show and regenerates. This was never the plan. What a shame. He deserved so much better." But the BBC were quick to shut down those claims. A spokesperson said: "Whilst we never comment on the future of the Doctor, any suggestion that Ncuti Gatwa has been 'axed' is pure fiction."

Meghan Markle's 'vulgar' move would leave King Charles 'horrified', claims expert
Meghan Markle stunned the world by sharing a video of her in a hospital room before giving birth to her daughter. A royal commentator has described Meghan Markle's decision to share a video of her twerking in an effort to induce labour as "utterly bizarre", which would likely leave King Charles "horrified". The Duchess of Sussex surprised fans and the press by uploading the footage on Lilibet's fourth birthday, where she danced vibrantly in a maternity ward with Prince Harry by her side. Meghan is seen in the video energetically twerking to Starrkeisha's Baby Momma Anthem, hitching her skirt above the knees, lifting her arms and shuffling low, hands placed firmly on her waist, legs moving rhythmically. Posting the video, Meghan reflected: "Four years ago today, this also happened," adding that after other methods such as eating spicy food, walking extensively, and trying acupuncture failed, dancing seemed like the next option. "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!" she penned. Jennie Bond, ex-BBC Royal correspondent, gave her take on the surprising clip, telling the Mirror that those moments are typically highly private for any couple. Emphasising the significance of personal choice during childbirth, Bond stated: "The hours before you give birth are some of the most personal, intimate and private in the lives of any couple. "Women are perfectly entitled to do whatever they feel like to get through the waiting, and the pain. Giving birth is a serious business, and anything to lighten the mood is welcome. "However, to share those scenes with the world is utterly bizarre and, in my view, takes away all the magic of the moment. I cannot imagine why she chose to release it. "Maybe show it one day to your nearest and dearest- but to anyone and everyone who wants to click on it? "I can hear the voice of the late Queen's former private secretary, Lord Charteris, repeating the comments he once made about Fergie: 'Vulgar, vulgar, vulgar'." She went on: "If the King has watched it, which I doubt, though he can't have missed the headlines I'm sure he would be horrified. Royalty has to carry with it some measure of dignity. "I'm glad they were so happy before the birth, I'm glad Harry was there to support his wife in every way, I'm delighted to hear that he's such a great dad. But they really can't have it both ways. "They can't demand privacy and be so coy about sharing images of their children and then show us all these intensely intimate scenes. "And she cannot expect to be treated as if she's royal whilst behaving like a click-hungry social media influencer." Jennie admitted, though, that such videos will "connect in a very real way to young people". "Perhaps that's what Meghan is trying to do," she reasoned. "My own daughter thought the video humanised both Meghan and Harry and was light-hearted and hugely relatable. "It reminded her of her own pregnancies and labour and she thought it was rather charming. "In many ways, I agree with her. I just don't think it sits happily with trying to cling to the vestiges of being ' royal '." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
