Abbey Clancy packs on the PDA with husband Peter Crouch as the couple put on an amorous display during day two of Royal Ascot

They've been married since 2011 and share four children together.
And Abbey Clancy and her husband Peter Crouch were packing on the PDA as they enjoyed a loved-up outing on the second day of Royal Ascot on Wednesday.
The couple were pictured sharing a kiss as they watched the action from a balcony overlooking Ascot Racecourse.
Abbey, 39, who shared snaps of her look on Instagram, showed off her model physique in a slinky white satin dress from Magda Butrym.
Meanwhile Peter, 44, put on a dapper display in a sharp cream suit as he leaned in for a kiss from his stunning wife.
Royal Ascot, the jewel in the crown of the UK racing calendar, kicked off on Tuesday with the Queen Anne Stakes and will run until Saturday.
King Charles and Camilla have been once again arriving in the famous carriage procession along the course and past the stands that will welcome hundreds of thousands of punters during the five-day meet.
It is a royal tradition that has reached its 200th anniversary this year after it was first held in 1825 during the reign of King George IV.
The festival was founded by Queen Anne in 1711 after she declared Ascot ideal for 'horses fit for kings' and it is now a major social event and sporting attraction.
It comes after Abbey told OK! magazine that she would love to have another baby, but her former footballer husband Peter joked he would 'leave' her if she considered it.
She said: 'I'd have 10 kids if I could but Pete is like "absolutely not". I think he said he'd leave me if I bring another living thing into the house.
'All the kids are in school now so I could easily have a newborn, but my husband says "no way".'
The couple, who have been married since 2011, share four children - Sophia Ruby, 14, Liberty Rose, 10, Johnny, seven, and Jack, six.
While Abbey said that she typically gets her way with her husband, she acknowledges that adding another child to their family is one subject he will not change his mind about.
As she watched the racing unfold with her pals, Abbey was in high spirits
She has previously spoken of her husband's affection for their children, admitting that whenever they do get the opportunity to enjoy a date night, they end up missing their brood
The model joked: 'I've actually just got a lovely new baby who's 18 hands - Enzo, my horse.
'He's five minutes from the house but I'd like him to live in my garden and sleep in my bed but that's not possible either!'
She has previously spoken of her husband's affection for their children, admitting that whenever they do get the opportunity to enjoy a child-free date night, they end up missing their sizeable brood.
Abbey said that while they are a well-off family, she does her best not to spoil her children so that they understand the importance of working hard.

Dua Lipa review — playing it safe at sold-out Wembley

Playing her largest ever headline concert at the first of two back-to-back hometown mega-shows, Dua Lipa strutted through a two-hour maximalist spectacular of costume changes, confetti blizzards and weapons-grade pyrotechnics as 90,000 screaming fans packed into a sold-out Wembley Stadium. This show boasted more sequins than stars in the Milky Way, a glittery catwalk parade of precisely engineered corsets, and the hardest working hair in showbusiness. Just enough glamazon razzle-dazzle, in fact, to elevate Lipa's oddly anodyne music, which remained in generic dance-pop mode for most of the evening. Plenty of killer outfits, too few killer tunes. Falling a year after the 29-year-old British-Albanian diva topped Glastonbury's main stage, these Wembley performances mark the British launch of Lipa's year-long Radical Optimism world tour, which kicked off in Australia last November. Divided into four acts, the set was sprinkled with tracks from the 2024 chart-topping album of the same name, which in fairness sounded more sparkly and dynamic than their studio versions, especially the opening stomper Training Season and the warmly melodic Falling Forever. In Taylor Swift fashion, Lipa has been punctuating this tour with bespoke cover versions that change every night, including a few guest duets featuring the original artists themselves. Having previously tackled classic crowd-pleasers by AC/DC, Kylie, Daft Punk and more, she called on Jay Kay of Jamiroquai for her Wembley debut. Now grey of stubble but still reliably goofy of headgear, Kay shared vocals on his vintage 1996 funk-pop hit Virtual Insanity. Anyone under the age of 40, which was most of the audience, appeared slightly baffled but cheered politely anyway. For a mainstream star with multiple global chart-toppers, three Grammy awards and billions in streaming sales, Lipa has an impressively rich cultural hinterland. Alongside the usual catalogue of luxury brand endorsements and charitable causes she also hosts a respected podcast interviewing authors, politicians, business leaders and fellow stars. She is commendably outspoken on politics, even contentious issues such as Israel and Palestine. Patti Smith recently endorsed Lipa as a feminist trailblazer, which is both surreal and sweet. The pity is that very little of this extra-curricular depth filtered through to her carefully polished stage persona in Wembley. Instead, Lipa peppered the set with bland boy-meets-girl lyrics, beaming selfies with fans and obligatory humble expressions of gratitude to the audience for making her teenage pop-star dreams come true. Which was charmingly soppy but, for such an obviously bright and engaged artist, dull to an almost calculated degree. After a dazzling, gravity-defying interlude on an elevated podium stage ringed by fire, Lipa galvanised herself for the finale with a disco-tastic medley of stronger tracks including her breakthrough hit New Rules, her Grammy-winning Barbie soundtrack contribution Dance the Night, and her almost-anthemic recent smash Houdini. In high-energy performance terms, she gave us everything. But in the confessional, funny, emotionally vulnerable terms that make good pop stars truly great, she gave us almost nothing. Businesslike to the last note, with an almost Tom Cruise-level of steely professionalism, the sense she left behind was a laser-focused star who knows how to work a room brilliantly, even when it's the biggest room in Britain.★★★☆☆Dua Lipa plays Wembley Stadium on Saturday, June 21, and Anfield Stadium in Liverpool on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 24 and 25.

Dua Lipa brings out Jamiroquai at emotional Wembley debut

Dua Lipa treated fans to a surprise appearance by Jamiroquai, as she played her first ever show at Wembley Stadium. Bringing out the band's frontman Jay Kay for a one-off performance of his 1996 hit Virtual Insanity, the star said he was 'a massive trailblazer for British music".Their performance came half-way through a stunning two-hour show, that saw Lipa tear through hits like Physical, One Kiss, New Rules and Levitating. 'This is such a massive, massive milestone for me,' she told her 70,000 fans. 'I've had a lump in my throat from the moment this show started.' Some dedicated fans had camped out since Thursday to see the singer's UK stadium debut, braving temperatures that exceeded 31C. 'It means the absolute world to me that you're here tonight,' she told them during the show. 'It feels like I've waited my whole life for this moment.' Reflecting on her ascent to the top tier of pop music, the 29-year-old added: 'It's been 10 years since our first ever London show, which happened to be about 350 people, and I dreamt of a night like this.''To be in front of 70,000 people. I'm so, so blown away." She then introduced one of her earliest singles, Hotter Than Hell, telling fans it was the track that had earned her a recording contract. Since then, she has stockpiled an enviable selection of armour-played hits, most of which got an airing on Friday night. The show began with a new-agey wash of ocean sounds, that segued seamlessly into her 2024 single, Training Season. Lipa sang the first verse slowly, over a sultry orchestral backing. But before long, the band kicked into gear, and the disco pulse barely let up for the next two hours. In many respects, the set played like an extended remix of her triumphant Glastonbury performance last year - full of pin-sharp choreography and fiercely futuristic pop. Her voice remains a strong point - resonant and flexible, with a hint of the rasp she inherited from her father, Albanian rock singer Dukajin Lipa. It was particularly effective on the cascading vocal runs of Falling Forever, and the Flamenco-flavoured Maria. Somehow, Lipa managed not to lose her breath, despite demanding, body-rolling dance routines that only occasionally recalled Jane Fonda's 1980s keep fit videos. She leaned into the schtick with an interlude instructing her fans to "move those hips" over the intro to Physical. Jay Kay arrived to a scream of recognition from older members of the audience, suited up in a tasseled white cowboy jacket and pink jeans. "What a privilege and an honour to be on stage with you," said the singer, before launching into Virtual Insanity - a song that became a hit when Dua was just one year songs, the star spent time getting personal with fans in the front row - borrowing their phones to pose for selfies, signing records (side note: who on earth brings a vinyl record to the front row of a stadium concert?) and even appropriating one person's scarf to accentuate her own stage outfit. It was a simple, but personal, touch that helped to illustrate why the star has become only the second British woman after Adele to headline Wembley Stadium. Watched from the stands by her family, including fiancé Callum Turner, she wrapped up the show with a flawless four-song encore that included some of her biggest hits: New Rules, Don't Start Now and Dance The finished with the psychedelic pop smash Houdini, ratcheting up the tension with a flurry of fireworks as she head-banged to a shredding guitar solo. Then the music suddenly stopped and she vanished in a cloud of smoke. A powerhouse performance from a star at the top of their game, it was proof that you don't need giant mechanical props or cutting edge video technology to pull off a compelling stadium show. Sometimes, the right songs, the right choreography and a generous helping of feel-good energy are enough. As an added bonus, that keeps the tickets affordable: The most expensive seats cost £155, compared to some stadium shows this summer, where prices have topped £900. Lipa continues her Radical Optimism tour with a second night at Wembley on Saturday, followed by dates in Liverpool and London before the North American leg kicks off in September.

England football star Kieran Trippier and his wife 'to divorce' - after he broke his silence on their marriage split

English ace Kieran Tripper and wife Charlotte are divorcing, according to reports. The Newcastle United right-back revealed earlier this week that he split from his wife Charlotte more than a year ago. But a source said that the pair are definitely committed to making the separation permanent, the Sun has now reported. Trippier, 34, married Charlotte in Cyprus in 2016 and the couple have three children togther, Jacob, and two daughters, Esme and Isla. The source said: 'Charlotte has been open with her friends about getting a divorce. She has been seeking legal advice and is keen to move on with her life. 'Kieran is a devoted dad but as a partner it hasn't worked out as Charlotte had hoped. 'She has moved house and started anew, so getting a divorce has been the next logical step. Charlotte wants to keep things as amicable as possible with Kieran.' The 34-year-old football star said on Wednesday in a statement on Instagram stories: 'I feel I have no choice but to confirm publicly that myself and Charlotte separated over a year ago. 'Myself and Charlotte separated over a year ago. I have not commented previously as it is a private matter and we want to protect our children.' Kieran and Charlotte married in 2016 and sources say that they were keen to keep their split a secret so their kids would not have to deal with any upset. However, it has been reported that Charlotte has a new property where she lives without Kieran. Rumours of their split began during last year's Euros in Germany when Charlotte unfollowed her husband on Instagram on the end of the England's final group game. She also did not jet to Germany like other WAGs. She then posted a cryptic message on social media, saying: 'Sooner or later you get over the s*** you swore you'd never get over and it's the best feeling in the world.' Further posts included the caption 'the sun is shining, happy Monday', where Charlotte was seen sitting in the car listening to music while she waited to pick up her children from school. Meanwhile, the footballer, 34, was reportedly seen mingling in Ibiza with another woman this week. The Newcastle United player was spotted partying with Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry and her pals including Love Island star Jess Harding at Ushuaia club on the White Isle. The sportsman announced his retirement from international football in August last year - with MailOnline revealing how he wanted to to focus on life outside the game following his marriage breakdown. MailOnline has approached representatives of Kieran Trippier for comment, and also Charlotte Trippier.
