Loved-up Louis Tomlinson and Zara party to The Prodigy before intimate moment
Zara McDermott made sure Louis Tomlinson didn't miss The Prodigy as the pair took in the festival's headliner together.
Zara played the good girlfriend even though the electronic punk rockers didn't appear to be her cup of tea. She looked a bit more subdued during the high tempo performance at the end of her first ever Glastonbury as the former 1D star let his hair down. Louis loved the incredible act and the pair were joined by his sister Lottie, 26, and her fiance Lewis Burton.
It looked like Zara's relationship with Louis - who she started dating earlier this year just weeks after her split from boyfriend of five years Sam Thompson - is definitely hotting up. A source told The Mirror: 'Louis was loving The Prodigy. He dragged her along to the Other Stage and had a ball dancing to their hits. Zara danced along before leaving hand in hand with Louis before the set ended.'
Zara and Louis have been careful not to pose for any photos together and the new couple are yet to make their relationship Instagram official. But she has now met the singer's family and posed for pics earlier in the day with his little sister, suggesting she's already got her seal of approval.
They are still trying to keep things quiet, despite numerous appearances out and about. It's emerged the pair aren't even camping together at Glasto - with glam Zara preferring to stay off site instead while Louis partied with his mates. He's reportedly even put up a tent that's just for booze.
Another source told the Mirror: "Louis is determined to make it a weekend to remember and has planned everything with military like precision - including making sure enough booze is available. He has his own tent - and one just for the drinks. Everyone is saying it's a nice break for him and Zara, but it's a great way also for Zara to meet his mates. It will definitely be a boozy one and not a particularly romantic one."
The pair first struck up romance rumours earlier this year as they were photographed on a cosy date in Suffolk in March, just a few weeks after Zara's split from her long-term boyfriend Sam Thompson.
Louis and Zara then enjoyed a cosy trip together in Los Angeles, with Zara finally unveiling her romance on Instagram as the pair enjoyed a brunch date together. Since then, it appears their romance has continued to blossom as Zara was recently seen supporting Louis in Costa Rica.
Sam recently said he 'panicked' ahead of possible run-in with Louis at Soccer Aid this month. Sam admitted he felt a wave of panic at the thought of a potential run-in with Louis during Soccer Aid with behind-the-scenes tensions bubbling long before the match.
The reality star revealed he was caught off guard months ago when asked how he'd feel sharing a pitch with the One Direction singer. 'I panicked and thought, 'I don't have this,'' he explained on his Staying Relevant podcast. "So I said, 'It's not about me and Louis. It's not about who's dating who - it's UNICEF, it's charity.'
'Everyone's here for the same reason: to raise money. And if he's got anything about him, which I've heard he does, he'll say the same.'
Sam and Zara, who met in 2019 after she shot to fame on Love Island, broke up briefly before getting back together but called time on their relationship for good in December.
She's since moved on with Louis, though the new couple have kept things quiet publicly – with Louis only briefly featuring on Zara's Instagram during a romantic trip in the US earlier this year.

Katie Price stopped at airport security as staff 'didn't recognise her face'
Katie Price has claimed she was stopped at passport control in an airport because security staff didn't recognise her face and she was marched to a room to check her identity. Katie Price has revealed that she was reportedlty stopped at passport control in an airport due to security staff failing to recognise her. In a recent episode of The Katie Price Show, she opened up about the incident. The former glamour model shared the "funny" encounter with her sister Sophie, whilst they had been waiting in line at airport security. Katie detailed how she was queuing at passport control when she noticed airport officials continually glancing her way. She recalled how this made her feel "awkward," describing it as something that makes you "more twitchy." Airport personnel then asked Katie to accompany them to what she referred to as a "visa place", where she was instructed to take a seat. Convinced she had done nothing wrong, Katie complied and sat down, and began watching "horse videos". She seemed not phased by the situation, confessing that she didn't mind sitting there as reported by the Mirror. With an hour and a half until her flight, she explained she preferred this to wandering around the airport and dealing with the "anxiety that people are looking." She recalled: "And then the man come back. I dunno what they do to check your passport, whether they Google your name or whatever, but then the police guy came back with a big grin on his face - was like, 'Hi'." Katie went on to say: "I said, 'I don't look like my passport picture because I've had my face done so many times. I look different. Yeah, and they went, 'No, no. You're all fine. You're all fine. I went, 'Do you think I need to change my passport for a new one and a new picture? I said, 'Because this happens all the time', because my passport picture is so old, I don't look like it." Sophie joked: "Well, it depends if you're going to keep changing your face." Katie mentioned that she also faces difficulties with electronic passport scanners, which frequently display "seek assistance" as they "obviously" fail to "recognise" her photograph. Katie, who branded this kind of situation as "b******e", also disclosed that whilst in Dubai, she informed officials that she considered it a "compliment", since at her age she doesn't "really look like that". Recent snaps from Dubai show Katie flaunting her slender figure in swimwear aboard a luxury boat. Following complications from a prior bum list, Katie vowed earlier this year to avoid repeating the treatment. However Katie has seemingly had a change of heart and chosen additional filler during the summer months. She discussed the difficulties she encountered with one such procedure on the Katherine Ryan: Telling Everybody Everything podcast. She revealed: "I tried that BBL abroad where they take your own fat and put it in your bum. It was so painful. And it just did not look right on me."

Meghan Markle sends 'birthday love' in cryptic message as Queen Camilla turns 78
As Queen Camilla celebrates her 78th birthday today, her estranged daughter-in-law Meghan Markle has shared a cryptic message on social media. In an Instagram Story, Meghan posted a video of herself unboxing a crate containing three bottles of wine from her lifestyle brand, As Ever. Alongside the video, Meghan wrote: "Sending birthday love (both near and far) to my ladies," alongside a heart emoji. Although it's unclear who Meghan intended to send the wine to, many speculate the gesture was directed at the Queen. Meghan is thought to have shared a connection with Camilla early on in her royal life, with both women bonding over their mutual love for the arts and wine. However, despite their initial closeness, their relationship seems to have soured - with a major turning point reportedly occurring when Meghan allegedly broke a pledge, a move that is said to have deeply upset Camilla, the Mirror reports. The incident happened five years ago, when it was revealed that Meghan had insisted on having photos of her at a theatre visit released on the day the then Duchess of Cornwall delivered a significant speech. Camilla's address marked the 10th anniversary of the Women of the World Festival in London - an event which had been nearly a year in the making. According to reports, Meghan had agreed not to upstage Camilla's important campaign highlighting abuse. However, images from her private visit to the National Theatre were published on the very day of Camilla's milestone speech. Meghan's latest cryptic post comes as the Palace marks Camilla's birthday with the release of a new official portrait, along with well wishes for her big day. Adding to the celebration a photo surfaced online of Camilla as a child, sparking wholesome reactions from royal fans. The throwback snap got people talking online, as many remarked on how different the Queen looked in her childhood. A social media user took to X to share the photo, with the caption: "A young Queen Camilla." Commenting, one person stated: "Too adorable for words." Another said: "I don't think I've ever seen childhood photos of her. She was adorable," while a third agreed: "Wow.... She was a cutie." Camilla was born on July 17, 1947, at King's College Hospital in London and spent her early years in Sussex. She began her education at Drumbrell's School in Ditchling, later attending the esteemed Queen's Gate School in South Kensington. After leaving Queen's Gate at 16, she continued her studies at Mon Fertile School in Switzerland and later at the Institut Britannique in Paris, before starting her professional life in London. Camilla first met her future husband, King Charles, at a polo match in 1970 through a mutual friend. Although their initial romance was brief, she went on to marry Andrew Parker Bowles, an officer in the Household Cavalry, in 1973. The couple remained married until 1995. Prince Charles and Princess Diana married in 1981 but divorced in 1996, just a year before Diana's tragic death. Nearly a decade later, in 2005, King Charles and Camilla tied the knot. Meghan's cryptic birthday post comes amid growing speculation of a possible reconciliation between the Sussexes and the royal family. Just last week, senior aides to both King Charles and Prince Harry were seen chatting over drinks at the Royal Over-Seas League in London, located just minutes from Clarence House. The meeting has sparked speculation that the aides may have been discussing a possible meeting between the King and Harry, during his upcoming visit to the UK in September. Notably, there was no representative for Prince William, whose relationship with his brother remains strained, present at the gathering. Recently Harry made public his desire to bury the hatchet with his family, saying in a tell-all interview with the BBC in May that he "would love a reconciliation" with the King and William, as he admitted that he was tired of fighting, and he worried about Charles' health because he did "not know how much longer [his] father has." In the interview, the Duke simply stated: "I would like to get my father and brother back."

Grieving family adopt 'identical' dog after losing pet then make wild DNA discovery
Jillian Reiff had only just said goodbye to her beloved dog, Rufus, when she found another dog that looked exactly like him, but it turned out there was more than just a resemblance A heartbroken family was left gobsmacked after rescuing a dog that was the spitting image of their late beloved pet – only to find out the pair were father and son. Jillian Reiff had barely finished grieving for Rufus, her cherished rat terrier cross, when she spotted a photograph on Instagram of another dog. The pooch was Rufus' doppelganger – boasting identical markings and ears. Though still devastated by her loss, Jillian wasn't certain she was prepared for another four-legged friend – but her instincts urged her to arrange a meeting. Merely four days afterwards, she and her loved ones popped down to Muttville Senior Dog Rescue, where an instant attraction took place. "He felt like a gift," Jillian revealed to What's The Jam, adding: "Seeing his happy face reminded us so much of our beloved boy." "It brought peace to a house that had been crying for days." Jillian reckons the likeness was extraordinary, prompting them to take the hound home immediately and christen him Ziggy. Back at their place, Ziggy made himself comfortable right away – wandering through the front entrance like he was the landlord and forming an immediate connection with their senior dog, Petey. The similarities didn't end there – Ziggy began mimicking everything Rufus once did, from welcoming the children each morning to tucking a blanket around his head come bedtime. However, when he began howling like a wolf, exactly as Rufus had done, Jillian's gut feeling kicked in. She requested a DNA analysis for Ziggy, comparing it with one she'd arranged for Rufus years earlier – and the findings were absolutely staggering. Not only were they the same mix, they were family – Ziggy was Rufus's actual dad. It transpired that Rufus had been adopted from the San Francisco SPCA nine years prior, while Ziggy had recently been found as a stray and taken to Muttville, also in San Francisco. Now, spiritually reunited and sharing the same home, the Reiff family express their abode is once again filled with happiness – all due to a fortuitous scroll on Instagram. Jillian stated: "There is no science I can find to explain this, only kismet. We have cried many times since last Thursday, this time in unadulterated joy. "The fact Ziggy is here and with us to spend the rest of his amazing life is because of Muttville." It follows news that Perranporth Beach in Cornwall has been voted the UK's best dog-friendly beach. Canine Cottages investigated beaches across the country in an effort to find the top locales. The verdict was decided after looking at reviews, dog-friendly activities, terrain and car parks. Perranporth Beach, situated on the North Cornwall coast, has plenty to offer, including rock pools, and is dog-friendly throughout the year. It's worth noting, however, that dogs must be kept on their leads in July and August on the main beach, although there remains ample space for your four-legged friend.
