Aston Martin DB12 Volante 'Palm Beach' Is A One-Off Model Celebrating Florida
Aston Martin has revealed a new version of the DB12 Volante developed in collaboration with the British marque's in-house customisation department Q. This iteration of the open-top grand tourer is a one-off model called the 'Palm Beach'. The name fits the description of the car, the area has been associated with some of the richest names, and is considered to be one of the cash-rich localities of Florida. It is to be noted that this unit has been created for an undisclosed client. Unlike most cars of the British manufacturer, the DB12 Volante 'Palm Beach' comes with a unique paint job called 'frosted glass blue', instead of green or the silver paint seen on cars in James Bond movies. To further improve the aesthetics, the car gets a contrasting pinstripe on the front splitters, side sills, and rear bumper. Since the one-off unit had to be special, it gets jet-black diamond-turned wheels. Given that the name is Palm Beach, there must be a connection to it. This connection can be found inside the vehicle, where the latitude and longitude coordinates of Palm Beach are imprinted on the dashboard. As if that weren't enough dedication to the theme, the veneers on the rear seats are diagonally book-matched and feature metal inlays that spell out "Palm Beach." Topping it off, the bespoke nature of the car is further highlighted by interior upgrades like the abstract palm leaf motif, which is sewn into the Aurora Blue and Ivory leather interiors. There are also wood accents with open-pore Linear Light Olive Ash interior. The automaker did not mention any mechanical changes in the car. The standard version of the car is powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 producing 671 hp of power. This power can be used to accelerate the car from 0 to 96 kmph in 3.4 seconds.

Brooklyn Beckham's birthday tribute to Nicola Peltz's brother after ignoring David's 50th as family feud reaches new low
BROOKLYN Beckham has sparked fresh feud rumours by paying tribute to his wife Nicola Peltz's brother – while ignoring dad David's 50th birthday. The 26-year-old took to Instagram to wish Will Peltz a happy birthday as he turned 39. 5 5 5 Brooklyn shared a photo of them on a night out, writing: 'Happy birthday Will Peltz, love you buddy,' to which Will replied: 'Ayee love you bro.' The dig comes on the day the final episode of his dad's chat show Beckham & Friends airs. Tom Cruise will be the special guest on the final episode of David's chat show on Paramount+. Brooklyn failed to attend David 's milestone birthday celebrations weeks ago, despite being in London at the time shooting a big campaign with posh fashion brand Moncler. He was later slammed for what seemed to be a swipe at his parents, declaring to Nicola on Instagram: 'I always choose you.' The latest tribute to Nicola's family comes after claims Victoria Beckham left Nicola in tears on her wedding day in 2022. Sources told People magazine that Victoria allegedly 'hijacked' the first dance at Brooklyn's Palm Beach wedding. 'Marc Anthony, who is a friend of the Beckhams, offered to perform as a gift at the wedding,' one source said. 'Before the song began, Marc Anthony asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, 'The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up…Victoria Beckham!'' Nicola reportedly 'felt that Victoria ruined her wedding, and couldn't understand why'. Another source said guests were shocked when Victoria started slow dancing with Brooklyn, leaving Nicola in tears. They added: 'It wasn't appropriate. Nicola felt like Victoria did this on purpose, when she knew it was a pre-planned romantic dance meant for Brooklyn and Nicola. What she couldn't understand was why.' But a guest told The Sun this wasn't the case, saying Victoria was only pulled on stage by Marc. They said: 'After the first dance, Nicola danced with her dad, which is normally when the groom would dance with his mum, but that didn't happen. 'Later, Marc performed a few songs and pulled David and Victoria up on stage with him, then grabbed Brooklyn to dance with his mum. 'Harper danced with David, Cruz got up with Eva Longoria. It was a fun family moment and one dance. 'No-one realised Nicola was upset as she just stormed out of the room. 'She came back later and the party continued. It's all just baffling. Everyone was mystified as to why Nicola would get so upset.' The rift reportedly started after Victoria and Nicola clashed over the wedding dress for Brooklyn and Nicola's 2022 nuptials. Nicola later told Variety she had planned to wear a Victoria Beckham design, but plans changed when the atelier couldn't finish the dress in time. She said: 'She didn't say you can't wear it; I didn't say I didn't want to wear it. That's where it started, and then they ran with that.' Tensions have continued, with Brooklyn and Nicola failing to publicly acknowledge both David and Victoria's birthdays this year, fuelling speculation of an ongoing family feud. In return Brooklyn's gushing Instagram tribute to Nicola, 30, last week – where he wrote: 'My whole world. I will love you forever. I always choose you baby' – was ignored by his family. Insiders say David and Victoria are struggling to cope with the rift. What do David Beckham's tattoos mean? Hands Starting with the hands, and David Beckham has the word "Love" inked across the top of his left hand, with a swallow on either side. This is joined by the numbers 723, a combination of the shirts he famously wore for Manchester United and later Real Madrid. On his little finger, he has the year he was married. Becks also has a small female-stick figure designed by his daughter Harper. The devoted husband has "Posh' tattooed on a finger as a nod to wife Victoria Beckham 's Spice Girls nickname. Arms Becks has two sleeve tattoos on both his arms with the centrepieces paying tribute to his marriage to Victoria. The most famous of his body art comes in the shape of her name along the inside of his forearm, which is inked in Sanskrit. Both Posh and Becks have Hebrew tattoos, which they got to celebrate their sixth wedding anniversary. The matching tatts translate to, "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine". Meanwhile, Becks also has a separate rose inking on his left arm to mark the couple's tenth anniversary. Neck One of Beckham's most famous tattoos is on his neck, which is a gothic style cross and wings. It is symbolic of to his religion and acts as a protective guardian of his son Romeo, whose name is tattooed just below the angel wings. Beckham also has the name of his daughter, Harper, on the side of his neck. This was later updated to include the words "Pretty Lady", to mark her fourth birthday. Back Beckham's back tattoos serve as tribute to his sons. He has angel wings at the top as a sign of protection for them. Becks has both his eldest on Brooklyn, and his youngest son Cruz 's names inked across his back. Body Beckham has a large chest tattoo that is an image of himself as Jesus, with three cherubs representing his sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz. The footy ace also has a vertical tattoo down his left side in Chinese symbols - this translates as 'Death and life have determined appointments". Paying homage to his father, he has an inking of a ship at full mast - which is identical to the same one his dad has. A source told US Weekly: 'It's sad, really. David and Victoria didn't even know Brooklyn was in London. It's becoming increasingly clear how strained things are behind the scenes. 'David and Victoria always turn up for Brooklyn and Nicola, whether it's for the launch of his hot sauce brand or her movie premiere. This is just very sad. 'Brooklyn's family adores him and will always be there for him. They just can't deal with this nonsense anymore.' Another source claimed Brooklyn didn't meet with his parents because he's 'trying to let things go right now and is giving everyone space'. 5 5

Florida seniors shouldn't have to deal with homelessness. They need our support.
When most people hear the name 'Goodwill,' they picture the retail stores. But Gulfstream Goodwill Industries (GGI) is much more than that. We are the largest provider of homeless services across five counties—Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River and Okeechobee. In Palm Beach County alone, we operate four shelters and provide over 150 units of temporary and permanent housing. Each year, nearly 100,000 nights of safe shelter are offered to individuals and families in crisis. Most recently, we've also taken on the responsibility of feeding every person in our shelters. But now, a heartbreaking trend is emerging. Over the past year, we've seen a troubling increase in seniors — men and women in their 70s, 80s and even 90s —seeking emergency shelter. These are not strangers. They are our parents, grandparents, former teachers, veterans and neighbors. They have worked, raised families, contributed to their communities—and now, in the final chapters of their lives, they find themselves on the street, without safe shelter, without food and nowhere to lay their heads at night. This is not just sad—it's unacceptable. Opinion: Silence fuels suffering: Speak up to save social services From 2017 to 2022, the number of seniors experiencing homelessness grew by a staggering 65%. There are several interconnected challenges are fueling this crisis, starting with a shortage of affordable housing. A 36.7% increase in one-bedroom apartment rents in 2021 has priced out many seniors living on fixed incomes. Inadequate financial support is also a problem. Florida's maximum Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefit is $637 per month — far below what is needed to afford even basic housing. Many seniors also face chronic health conditions and lack access to affordable care and transportation, making it nearly impossible to maintain stable housing. In response, Palm Beach County has implemented several important initiatives, including the Division of Senior and Veteran Services providing over $106,000 in aid to 22 older adults at risk of losing their homes. The county also developed a new 74-bed housing center and 17 cottage homes to offer more permanent housing solutions, and it expanded medical respite care and eviction prevention services that are helping address critical needs. Opinion: As Florida criminalizes homelessness, she sought refuge in my storage facility While these are important steps, they are not enough. To address this growing crisis, Gulfstream Goodwill has launched Out and About, a mobile outreach initiative that brings essential resources directly to where seniors live. The program offers emergency food, hosts mobile farmers markets and connects seniors with vital financial, health, and wellness services to help them stay safely housed and independent. We are also actively working to expand our affordable housing efforts, because aging should come with dignity, not despair. No one deserves to age into homelessness. Every senior deserves a safe, stable place to call home. Devorah Kermisch is director of Community Relations with Gulfstream Goodwill Industries.

Tiger Woods makes major decision over relationship with Vanessa Trump after surprise romance announcement
TIGER WOODS is reportedly ready to move in with girlfriend Vanessa Trump after announcing their romance earlier this year. Woods, 49, is loved up with Donald Trump Jr's ex-wife, revealing "love is in the air" in an emotional announcement in March. 5 5 The pair had originally hoped to keep their relationship under wraps, but decided to go public after rumours of their romance began to swirl. And now it looks like they are ready to take things to the next level. According to the Mail Online, it is only a matter of time before Woods and Vanessa move in together at the golfer's $40million mansion. The pair currently live 20 minutes apart in the wealthy southern Florida enclave of Palm Beach. While Woods' children, Charlie, 16, and Sam, 17, attend the same school as Vanessa's eldest daughter Kai, 17 - the $38,595-a-year The Benjamin School. Despite not moving in together just yet, it's claimed that Vanessa, 47, already has a number of her belongings at Woods' house and knows all the security codes to get around the home. A source told the Mail: "She's got some clothes there, her toiletries, some cosmetics. "She'll throw in a load of laundry while she's there, or help herself to something in the fridge. You'd think she owns the place!" 5 Woods and Vanessa started out as friends before it became something more. The pair had reportedly been seeing each other since before Thanksgiving, but their relationship was not yet public. However, it's thought that many people around the school shared by their children were already aware of their romance before it hit the mainstream. Close friends of the couple told the US Sun last month Vanessa has helped Woods find joy again, having dealt with the aftermath of a near-fatal car crash in February 2021 and another injury stunting his return to golf glory. They said: "Tiger is so happy. He's reborn and full of positive energy." Woods, who was previously married to Elin Nordegren before their 2010 divorce following revelations of his infidelity, has been describesd as feeling like a lovesick teenager once again. Vanessa is no stranger to high-profile relationships, having been married to Donald Trump Jr between 2005 and 2018, with whom she shares five children. Former father in law President Donald Trump even gave his blessing for Vanessa's new relationship with Woods. He said: "I'm very happy for both, let them both be happy. They're both great." Woods was most recently in a seven-year relationship with nightclub manager Erica Herman, which ended three years ago. The golfing sensation hasn't played professional golf since last year and remains in a battle to return from his Achilles injury. 5 5

Victoria Beckham ‘mystified' by claims she ‘ruined' son Brooklyn's wedding dance
Victoria Beckham is 'mystified' by claims that she 'ruined' her son Brooklyn's special wedding dance with his bride, Nicola Peltz. '[The newlyweds] had their first dance and a second, as is evidenced, and then Nicola had the traditional dance with her father,' a source who was at the reception exclusively tells Page Six of the drama. 'Much later in the evening when Marc Anthony performed, lots of people got up to dance, and yes, finally, then Brooklyn and Victoria had a dance, as did David and his daughter, [Harper]. 'Everyone is mystified why that would have upset Nicola.' Brooklyn and Peltz shared the first and second dances at their 2022 Palm Beach nuptials to live renditions of Only Fools Rush In and Stand By Me, the Daily Mail reported at the time. However, a separate insider exclusively tells Page Six that the 'brief' dances were only for photos while the actress was still wearing her wedding dress. It was meant to be a 'precursor' to the real dancing that would take place when Beckham family friend Marc Anthony hit the stage. As People reported earlier on Thursday, the My Baby You singer asked for Brooklyn and Victoria — 'the most beautiful woman in the room' — to come forward and share a dance. The move led Peltz to 'run from the room crying.' Our source corroborates People 's account, adding that Peltz, 30, and Brooklyn, 26, had specifically picked Anthony's love song You Sang to Me for the 'romantic' moment. 'This was the special, romantic, big dance,' the insider says, explaining that it was 'known, planned and choreographed.' 'This was a six-figure investment in the band. It was a lot of planning and different choreography for the evening to make sure this was going to be their big moment. Everyone in both families knew that, and [Victoria] chose to do this.' Reps for Victoria, David, Brooklyn and Peltz did not immediately respond to Page Six 's requests for comment. Another source close to the young couple exclusively told us that 'everyone in the room witnessed what happened' at the wedding. 'The shock was palpable,' they said. 'It was deeply hurtful. Unfortunately, this wasn't a one-off. It's a pattern that still happens to this day.' Rumours of a feud between Victoria, 51, and her daughter-in-law have been swirling since the April 2022 wedding when the Bates Motel alum wore a Valentino wedding gown instead of one designed by the former Spice Girl. The speculation was reignited after Brooklyn and Peltz were notably absent from David Beckham's star-studded 50th birthday celebrations. 'David and Victoria always turn up for Brooklyn and Nicola, whether it's for the launch of his hot sauce brand or her movie premiere. This is just very sad,' a source told Page Six earlier this month. We were told, 'Brooklyn's family adores him and will always be there for him. They just can't deal with this nonsense anymore.'
