I'm dating my first COUSIN – people say our story's straight out of the 1800s but I think we're relationship goals
A YOUNG woman has revealed that she is dating her first cousin. Faz, who is from Grimsby, is in a relationship with her family member, Ania, 18. 2 2 But the couple have now found themselves at the heart of a barrage of abuse from mean trolls, who have described their story as something from the 1800s. However, the two women are on a mission to not let the hate get to them and Faz has even described their pairing as 'relationship goals.' Posting on social media, Faz hopped onto one of the most recent viral trends, whereby those in a relationship share how many months they have been dating. Alongside three snaps of the couple, whose parents are siblings, Faz wrote: 'How many months have you guys been together?' To this, she then admitted: 'Only two months as we had to keep our relationship quiet because we are cousins.' Alongside the short clip, Faz later wrote: 'As they say, keep it in the family.' Faz also described her cousin Ania as her 'lover' and even shared the hashtag '#Relationshipgoals.' But the TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ user73530853762, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as in just 24 hours, it has quickly racked up 451,000 views. Not only this, but it's also amassed 13,400 likes, 309 comments and 27,100 shares. Social media users were gobsmacked by the couple's 'wild' familial link and many raced to the comments to share their thoughts. My parents are brother and sister One person said: 'Oh no this is not nice.' Another added: 'I beg your pardon.' A third commented: 'I feel like I'm in the 1800s, what is this?' Meanwhile, someone else penned: 'That's wild.' Can I marry my cousin in the UK? ACROSS the globe, more than 10 percent of marriages are between first or second cousins. In the UK, there's no legal bar to two cousins having a relationship. That means that if end up falling for the children of your aunts and uncles, there's nothing stopping you from eventually tying the knot. If you're over the age of 18, you can do this without the consent of your legal guardian or parent. First-cousin marriages were once quite common in Europe, especially among the elite. At the same time, one rude troll slammed: 'Wronguns.' But clearly bothered by the nasty remark, Faz confidently clapped back and wrote: 'Cheers.' Not only this, but one user asked: 'Do these kinds of relationships run in the family?' In response, Faz shared: 'Yes, why?' Amongst the judgement, Faz's girlfriend Ania commented on the post and beamed: 'I love you babe ❤️❤️'

Malaysian Downs 978 Cups Of CHAGEE In 30 Days To Win Travel Voucher
Subscribe to our FREE In what might be the most caffeinated quest for free vacation ever documented, a Malaysian man has shocked the internet. He consumed 978 cups of bubble tea in just 30 days – all to win a travel voucher worth RM15,999. The epic tea marathon unfolded during CHAGEE's cup challenge promotion, which ran from 18 June to 18 July. The rules were simple: whoever bought the most cups would win the grand prize. What nobody expected was for someone to take it this seriously. The Numbers Don't Lie (But They're Hard to Believe) Let's break down the math that's got everyone talking. This bubble tea champion – identified only as 'Leo' on the leaderboard – managed to average 32.6 cups per day. That's one cup every 45 minutes, around the clock, for an entire month. Using CHAGEE's cheapest menu item at RM11.90 per cup, Leo dropped at least RM11,648.20 to win a prize worth RM15,999 potentially. Even accounting for bulk discounts or promotions, we're talking about a serious financial commitment to liquid sugar and tapioca pearls. The Internet Has Questions Social media exploded with reactions ranging from impressed to concerned. 'Are his feet still okay?' asked one worried commenter, while another joked, 'I'm afraid I'll win but won't have feet left to travel abroad.' Others speculated about the logistics: Was this a corporate bulk purchase? A group effort among friends? A party planning gone wild? The mystery deepened when people realised the sheer physical impossibility of one person actually drinking that much tea. The leaderboard shows Leo claiming the top spot with 978 cups, followed by 'CHA' with 735 cups and 'Faz' with 557 cups. The competition was clearly fierce, but Leo's commitment was in a league of its own. By the Book, But Beyond Belief According to CHAGEE's terms and conditions, the competition was straightforward: rankings were 'based on the total number of qualifying cups purchased via the Only paid orders through the official app counted – no freebies, no discounts with zero payment, and cancelled orders were voided. Even 100th place required a minimum of 37 cups to qualify for seven free regular milk teas, showing that this wasn't just about one obsessed individual, but a genuinely competitive field. What makes this story remarkable isn't that someone bent the rules – it's that they didn't need to. CHAGEE's official promotion created the perfect storm: a valuable grand prize, transparent leaderboard tracking, and no purchase limits. Leo simply took the challenge more seriously than anyone anticipated. The promotion has since ended, and Leo presumably has his travel voucher. His current tea consumption levels remain unknown.

Luke Cowan-Dickie backs Lions call-up for ‘class player' Owen Farrell
Farrell will arrive in Sydney on Friday after being summoned by the Lions as a replacement for Elliot Daly, who has returned home because of a fractured forearm just as he was playing his way into the Test team. Andy Farrell's decision to turn to his 33-year-old son is controversial given his last England appearance was almost two years ago and he was limited to just 17 games for Racing 92 last season because of groin surgery and concussion. Ready for his fourth Lions Tour 🦁 Enter, @owen_faz…#Lions2025 — British & Irish Lions (@lionsofficial) July 3, 2025 However, England's record points scorer and captain from 2018 to 2023 brings with him vast experience, including from three previous Lions tours, and he is the only player in the squad who was involved in the triumphant tour to Australia in 2013. Cowan-Dickie believes his CV makes him a valuable addition as the Lions continue their build-up to the first Test against the Wallabies on July 19. 'You don't lose class. Faz is a class player, so I'm well happy,' said Cowan-Dickie, who starts Saturday's match against the New South Wales Waratahs in Sydney. 'When it was announced internally, the reaction was good. Faz is a well-known player. He's played quality rugby over many years. 'One thing about Faz is the standards he sets on the training field. He's got bit of an aura about him on training fields, which makes you want to try and train to perfection. 'I know it's quite hard to perfect training every single day, but he definitely makes standards higher. 'He's a good team man. Even though he might not be involved one week he stays the same in training and the standards he wants to set.' Farrell has not played since he was concussed against Lyon on May 4 and he must get up to speed as quickly as possible if he is to make an impact on the playing field Down Under. Tadhg Beirne, who has been named captain against the Waratahs at Allianz Stadium, played with Farrell during the 2021 Lions tour to South Africa. 'Owen bring some serious quality. We're looking forward to him coming into the squad and getting to hang out with him,' Beirne said. 'Any type of leadership is only going to enhance the squad. Playing with him four years ago, I've seen all those leadership qualities that he brings. 'There's the quality of his talent as well, which will do nothing but boost the squad.'

Owen Farrell's 'aura' and 'serious quality' will help Lions in Australia, teammates say
SYDNEY (AP) — Owen Farrell's curveball call-up by the British and Irish Lions was welcomed by his new teammates Friday, with the former England captain praised for his high standards and leadership qualities as he heads to Australia for his fourth tour. Lions coach Andy Farrell picked his son to replace the injured Elliot Daly and it's a somewhat controversial selection. Owen Farrell hasn't played test rugby since the 2023 Rugby World Cup — he took a break from internationals to prioritize his mental well-being — and has had an underwhelming, injury-hit club season at Racing 92 in France, including a May 4 concussion since which he hasn't played. However, the 33-year-old Farrell is one of the great England players of his generation, having earned 112 caps and scored more points than anyone else, and is now the only player in the Lions squad who was involved in the triumphant tour to Australia in 2013. 'You don't lose class. Faz is a class player, so I'm well happy,' said hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie, who has played for England with Farrell. 'When it was announced internally, the reaction was good. Faz is a well-known player. He's played quality rugby over many years. 'One thing about Faz is the standards he sets on the training field. He's got (a) bit of an aura about him on training fields, which makes you want to try and train to perfection. I know it's quite hard to perfect training every single day, but he definitely makes standards higher." Farrell was arriving in Sydney on Friday and won't be playing in the tour match against the New South Wales Waratahs at Allianz Stadium on Saturday, when Tadhg Beirne will captain the Lions. 'Owen bring some serious quality. We're looking forward to him coming into the squad and getting to hang out with him,' said Beirne, who played with Farrell during the 2021 Lions tour to South Africa. 'Any type of leadership is only going to enhance the squad. Playing with him four years ago, I've seen all those leadership qualities that he brings. There's the quality of his talent as well, which will do nothing but boost the squad.' ___
