Live updates: Trump to inaugurate his family's newest luxury golf course in Scotland
President Donald Trump will cut the ribbon at a ceremony Tuesday for his family's second golf course in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Trump has been visiting Scotland on what the White House has called a working trip, which has included meetings with world leaders and time playing golf at properties his family owns. Trump will be the new course's first official player, though it opens to the public on Aug. 13 and could see a boost in sales because of the president's promotion of it. Trump on Monday used one of his family's luxury golf courses on Scotland's southwestern coast to host British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, mixing critical discussions on the deepening food crisis in Gaza, Russia's war in Ukraine and tariff rates with boasts about the property's opulence. Update: Date: 2025-07-29 09:33:16 Title: Trump is seeking quick Murdoch deposition in Wall Street Journal lawsuit over Epstein story Content: Trump is asking a federal court in Florida to force Rupert Murdoch to give a deposition for the president's lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal within 15 days, citing the media mogul's age and physical condition. Trump sued the Journal, owned by Murdoch, in U.S. District Court in southern Florida on July 18 for its story reporting on the Republican president's ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the financier and alleged child sex trafficker who died in a New York jail in 2019 before trial. The president's motion to the court on Monday noted Murdoch is 94 years old, is believed to have suffered several health scares in recent years and is presumed to live in New York. ▶ Read more about the Wall Street Journal lawsuit Update: Date: 2025-07-29 09:26:16 Title: Trump says he ended friendship with Epstein because he 'stole people that worked for me' Content: Trump said Monday that he ended his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and threw the now-disgraced financier out of his private club in Florida after Epstein betrayed him more than once by hiring people who had worked for him. 'He hired help and I said, 'Don't ever do that again,'' Trump said at his golf property in Turnberry, Scotland. 'He stole people that worked for me. I said, 'Don't ever do that again.' He did it again, and I threw him out of the place, persona non grata.' Trump did not say what his employees did or where they worked, and the White House declined further comment. But the White House had previously offered a different explanation for the falling-out. Steven Cheung, the White House communications director, said in a statement last week: 'The fact is that the President kicked him out of his club for being a creep.' ▶ Read more about Trump's comments on his connection to Epstein Update: Date: 2025-07-29 09:23:34 Title: Trump says he's only going to give Russia 10 to 12 more days to reach peace Content: Two weeks ago, the president said he would give Russia and Ukraine just 50 days to make a deal to end the war. Now Trump said he's going to reduce that time to a 'lesser number.' 'I think I already know the answer, what's going to happen,' he said, expressing skepticism that Russian President Vladimir Putin is willing to reach an agreement. Trump repeated his criticism of Putin for talking about ending the war, only to continue bombarding Ukraine. 'And I say, that's not the way to do it,' Trump said. He added that 'I'm disappointed in President Putin.' Update: Date: 2025-07-29 09:21:35 Title: Scotland's first minister joins those watching Trump Content: Among the people in attendance are Scotland's first minister, former members of Scotland's national soccer team and several of Trump's grandchildren. The White House said Trump met with First Minister John Swinney earlier in the day. Update: Date: 2025-07-29 09:18:03 Title: Trump is taking practice swings as he waits for program to start Content: Trump is wearing a black windbreaker, matching pants and a white cap as he takes practice swings ahead of the ribbon-cutting for his newest golf course. About 50 people have filled the sand trap by the tee box to watch Trump. Some are dressed for golf, complete with spiked cleats. A similar group of about 50 is watching from the other side in the tall grass growing on sand dunes flanking the first hole That's in addition to 200 media and VIPs in the grandstands.

She took to Instagram to share snaps of the special day, writing the caption: "a gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous day celebrating Hanni & Jack." Her followers got a glimpse of the stunning table and ceremony setup and decor inside the grand gothic cathedral, along with the bus that guests travelled on. Despite a cloudy day, the pair pulled out all the stops. A total of 150 white padded seats were laid out on the flagstones while staff worked hard to instal a detailed floral altar. After their nuptials at the cathedral, they headed the short distance to The Lowry hotel in Salford for the wedding breakfast and reception. Lucy also posed for a photo with her on-screen mum, Tina O'Brien, who looked stunning in a plunging blue floral dress. Tina put on a loved-up display with her new man as she left the wedding.

The couple embraced and kissed before the actress looked up lovingly at her boyfriend while holding his arm.

A number of our favourite small-screen actors have fallen for co-stars and soapland rivals when the cameras have stopped rolling. Max Parker and Kris Mochrie Despite playing brothers Luke and Lee Posner on Emmerdale, the pair never actually shared any scenes together. But the pair still fell in love after meeting on set.

Although it seems they were meant to be and the pair now share two children together. Zoe Henry and Jeff Hordley Emmerdale favourites Zoe and Jeff, who play Rhonda Goskirk and Cain Dingle met at drama college in 1994 and have been together ever since. While working together might be too much for some couples, that's definitely not the case for Zoe and Jeff.

Lesley Dunlop and Chris Chittell Lesley and Chris are another Dales romantic success story. Unlike some of the other soap stars, the pair who play Brenda Walker and Eric Pollard, are together on and off screen, officially tying the knot in 2016.

Chris revealed. Sally Carman and Joe Duttine Abi Franklin and Tim Metcalfe actors Sally and Joe got together after meeting on the set of Coronation Street in 2017 and they tied the knot in July 2022. But unlike some of the Emmerdale stars, Sally and Joe prefer that their characters don't interact much. Sally previously admitted it "would be horrendous" to work on a storyline with Joe because "he's too funny." Anthony Cotton and Peter Eccleston Sean Tully may have been unlucky in love on the cobbles, but in real life Antony's met his Prince Charming. The soap star started dating long-term partner Peter in 2005, after they met when he was working as an assistant props buyer on Corrie.

Residents pay tribute as Palacios' remains return to Saipan
First lady Wella Palacios and family members accompanied the governor's body, which received a ceremonial water salute on arrival at Francisco C Ada/Saipan International Airport. Photo: Marianas Press Residents of the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands braved the rain on Saturday to pay their respects to the late govenror Arnold Palacios as his remains returned home aboard a US military C-130 aircraft. First lady Wella Palacios and family members accompanied the governor's body, which received a ceremonial water salute on arrival at Francisco C Ada/Saipan International Airport. Palacios, who served the CNMI in multiple leadership roles over decades-from cabinet secretary to legislator, lieutenant governor, and finally governor-died last week while receiving treatment in Guam. CNMI governor David Apatang personally greeted the family at the tarmac before joining the motorcade to the ONRA Life Memorials (formerly Cabrera Funeral Home). Dozens of residents lined the route, many waving CNMI flags or bowing their heads as the hearse passed. Apatang, who ran alongside Palacios on the 2023 winning ticket, called him "a good friend and a relative." "He has a long history of service to the people of the Commonwealth," Apatang said, noting Palacios' willingness to assist municipal governments and community projects throughout his career. "He was a hard worker who often skipped lunch and stayed late at the office, focused on helping our people." The late governor's family released a statement expressing "profound gratitude and deep appreciation to friends, colleagues, and community members-from across the CNMI and beyond-who have offered their prayers and shared stories of his meaningful impact." The Palacios family also thanked Guam Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero, Lt Gov Josh Tenorio, US Indo-Pacific Command, Joint Region Marianas, and the medical teams at Guam Regional Medical City and the Commonwealth Health Center Corporation for their support. During the procession, public and private entities such as the American Red Cross NMI Chapter, Joeten-Kiyu Public Library, Saipan Mayor's Office, Commonwealth Utilities Corp (CUC), and the Carolinian Affairs Office honored Palacios' memory. CUC staff formed an archway with two bucket trucks, while members of the Carolinian community performed a traditional atiwa ritual, meant to honor leaders as they transition to the next life. Funeral arrangements are pending, with more details expected in the coming days.

The Bachelorette 's Hannah Brown Marries Adam Woolard in France Wedding
Originally appeared on E! Online Hannah Brown is trading a rose for a ring. The Bachelor Nation alum tied the knot with her fiancé Adam Woolard during a stunning wedding ceremony in Èze, France, on July 26.

To cap off her gorgeous ensemble, she opted for Jimmy Choo Staz Mesh Bow Pointed Pumps and her hair done in long, classic Hollywood waves. "I always knew I wanted to take up space on my wedding day," Hannah told People, "because there's so many times in life, especially as women, that we feel like we need to be smaller.
