Frankie Bridge raises eyebrows with cryptic post saying 'you're dead to me' - so who IS she talking about?
Frankie Bridge set tongues wagging this week as she shared a cryptic post. The Saturdays singer hinted that she was holding a grudge as she uploaded a new TikTok sipping on a glass of wine. The caption read: 'You're so quiet… Thanks, you said something five years ago and I've just realised you're actually dead to me.' Frankie, 36, then added below: 'Takes me a while, but once you're dead you're dead.' She didn't specify who or what incident she was talking about in the post. Avril Lavigne 's song What The Hell was played over the top. Frankie's representatives have been contacted by Daily Mail for comment. The TikTok clip was filmed on Frankie's holiday in the Maldives. Frankie is currently away on a family getaway with her husband Wayne, 45, and their sons Parker, 11, and Carter, nine. The singer took to Instagram on Thursday to share an array of snaps from her luxurious trip to beach resort Siyam World Maldives. The family were joined by Wayne's friend, football coach husband Luke Hampton, who was also celebrating his birthday, and Frankie's pal Leah Meredith - who is CBO of her brand Faves. Frankie looked incredible in a family photo with Wayne and their sons, as she donned a sheer red and blue floral chiffon maxi dress. The trip had been to celebrate Wayne and Luke's birthdays, with Frankie sharing a cake which read: 'Happy Birthday Daddies.' Among the snaps shared by Frankie included a delicious-looking tiered breakfast stand consisting of fruit, waffles, pastries and eggs - which was served in the pool in a floating basket. It comes after Frankie flashed her abs in a skimpy butter yellow bikini as she posed for sizzling Instagram snaps in the Maldives on Tuesday 'Celebrating @waynebridge03 & @lukehampton79,' Frankie captioned the snaps.

AFL coach opens a can of worms by delivering a stunning snub to Channel Seven
Luke Beveridge has been branded 'footy's most famous grudge holder' after a bizarre moment saw him appear to snub Channel 7 broadcaster Brian Taylor, after the Western Bulldogs sealed an 88-point victory against the GWS Giants on Thursday. Some are now calling for the AFL to step in and investigate the footy coach's snub, after Taylor, who was doing his usual post-match dressing room walk around, asked him for a quick chat. During the 'Roaming Brian' segment, which often throws up plenty of laughs and insights into what the players get up to after sealing such a big win, Taylor asked Beveridge 'for a quick word'. 'Can we just grab one question with you?' he asked the footy coach. Beveridge turned and looked at Taylor, cutting a very frosty look, before ducking around the Richmond and Collingwood great, while muttering a few words back at the presenter. Taylor then added: 'Don't you do Channel Seven anymore, Bevo?' Taylor added, appearing to reference Beveridge's recent feuds with some of Channel 7's presenters. Beveridge had banned certain members of Seven's broadcasting team, including Kane Cornes, from entering the Bulldogs' changing rooms after full-time. Cornes and Beveridge have exploded at each other in recent months, with the polarising former Port Adelaide pundit previously claiming that the coach had underachieved despite clinching a premiership with the Doggies in 2016. Beveridge has hit back multiple times, claiming he feels 'sorry' for anyone who has to work with Cornes. They later appeared to clash on the side of the footy pitch back in May ahead of the Bulldogs clash against Geelong at the GMHBA Stadium. Beveridge had been walking past Cornes, who appeared to turn and fire off some strong words at the coach. Beveridge returned service before walking away. But Beveridge's latest Channel Seven snub appears to have rubbed some of Cornes' colleagues up the wrong way, with Caroline Wilson stating on Tuesday that his behaviour was unacceptable. Wilson, who writes for The Age, did not hold back, lambasting Beveridge for treating Taylor in this manner. 'Luke Beveridge not only embarrassed himself last Thursday night, but he robbed Western Bulldogs supporters of an off-the-cuff insight into one of the club's greatest wins this year,' she said on Tuesday night's episode of The Agenda Setters. 'What a poor look for the Western Bulldogs coach to refuse to speak to roaming Brian of all people. 'But it seems that football's most famous grudge holder has decided to ban an entire network on behalf of one or two commentators, neither of whom were anywhere near the Bulldogs' rooms or in fact the game on Thursday night.' 'The following night, Matthew Nicks delivered a wonderful and again off-the-cuff insight into the joys of primetime victory. Matthew Nicks, a coach who's been smashed by the media in recent years. 'It is just extraordinary to me that a broadcaster that pours millions of dollars and so much more into footy every year is treated like this. 'And that Beveridge repeatedly gets away with it.' She added that members of the Bulldogs' hierarchy should be telling the coach that he should be fulfilling these media opportunities. 'It's extraordinary to me that somebody at the club doesn't tell him that he's got to do it,' she continued. 'What's Brian Taylor ever done to Luke Beveridge? It is just … Just embarrassing.' Journalist Craig Hutchison was equally strong in his assessment of the bizarre moment. Hutchison even went as far as calling on the AFL to investigate Beveridge's snub. 'I'm on the record about the reliance of the game on these two big broadcast deals. It's unthinkable to me,' he said, reflecting on the incident. 'If you are a coach in that situation and you continually don't want to be interviewed, you should be fined immediately. 'I'm staggered the AFL haven't done something about that if that is the case.' It's not the first time that Beveridge has feuded with members of the media. The Bulldogs coach notably held a long-running stoush with Nine's Damian Barrett. Back in 2019, he claimed the journalist had a 'black soul' and had told him to be careful when criticising his players. He has also gone head-to-head with Fox Sports' Tom Morris. Morris had correctly filed reports that Lachie Hunter was set to be left out of a Bulldogs' squad back in 2022 for a match. However, Beveridge later hit back at the journalist over the report, calling it 'gutter journalism'.

Suspect in Tokyo law firm stabbing held grudge against victim, police say
A 50-year-old man who allegedly stabbed his 36-year-old coworker to death in a Tokyo law office Tuesday morning had harbored a long-standing grudge against the victim, according to investigators. The attack occurred around 11:50 a.m. at the Adire law office at Sunshine 60, a high-rise in the Sunshine City commercial complex in the Ikebukuro area of Tokyo's Toshima Ward. Reito Watanabe is alleged to have approached Daiki Yoshino, a coworker from a different department, from behind while he was seated at his desk and stabbed him multiple times in the neck with a 9-centimeter folding knife. Watanabe then fled the scene, returned briefly to retrieve his office ID badge, and fled again. He turned himself in at a nearby police box outside Ikebukuro Station shortly after noon while still carrying the alleged murder weapon. NHK reported that Watanabe was also carrying two additional knives in his backpack, and that he had brought the folding knife from his home. Yoshino was transported to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead. 'I stabbed him,' Watanabe reportedly told officers. 'I don't remember it clearly, but when I came to, I had stabbed him.' During questioning, Watanabe reportedly said, 'I had held a grudge against him for a long time due to unpleasant experiences at work. I had reached my limit. I wanted to make him feel pain.' Police arrested Watanabe on suspicion of attempted murder, and plan to upgrade the charge to murder as their investigation continues. Adire specializes in services such as debt restructuring and overpayment claims against financial institutions. It has 65 branches nationwide and employs more than 235 lawyers. The firm expressed its regret over the incident in a statement on its official website. 'This incident has resulted in the tragic loss of a precious life. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family and offer our deepest sympathies,' the statement read. 'We are prioritizing the emotional well-being of the employees who witnessed the incident, as well as all our staff. We take this matter very seriously and are cooperating fully with the police investigation.' A woman working on the same floor of the building as the law firm told reporters she was shaken by the violence. 'I heard in the hallway that something had happened and checked the news online. It's terrifying,' she said, her voice trembling. Sunshine City is a sprawling complex located near Ikebukuro Station. It is made up of five buildings that consist of offices, hotels, a planetarium, an aquarium and a large shopping center. It attracts over 30 million visitors annually. Information from Jiji added
