Tyson Fury forces Dermot O'Leary into apology after Soccer Aid swearing
Hollywood star Julia Roberts was in attendance at Old Trafford for Soccer Aid 2025, which sees an England team take on Soccer Aid World XI FC in a charity football match Dermot O'Leary delivered a "profuse apology" to ITV audiences after Tyson Fury, the heavyweight champion, let slip some colourful language during a pre-match pep talk live on air for England's Soccer Aid 2025 team. The star-studded charity event at Old Trafford also saw silver screen icon Julia Roberts mingling with football legend Wayne Rooney during the annual fundraiser that pits an England squad against Soccer Aid World XI FC, all in support of Unicef. In the throes of motivation, Fury, who took on the role of manager for the England team, couldn't contain his passion in the dressing room speech as he dropped the seven-letter swear. He said live on ITV: "Let them know how good we are. We are England. We are f****** Spartans. We are Spartans." Following the raw moment, presenters Alex Scott and Dermot O'Leary swiftly offered their apologies to viewers, with Scott commenting: "What can I say about Tyson Fury? We do apologise for the swearing, but it is Tyson Fury, we don't know what's going to happen." Adding to Scott's sentiment, O'Leary stated: "We do profusely apologise." Adding a Hollywood shine to Old Trafford was 'Pretty Woman' actress Roberts, a self-proclaimed Manchester United enthusiast, captured taking pictures and sharing a smile with Rooney, who not long after dazzled the crowd by netting England's opening goal. Other notable names wearing the England kit included ex-One Direction star Louis Tomlinson and celebrated Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah. This year's England team also welcomed Last of Us star Bella Ramsey, comedian Paddy McGuinness, ex-Manchester United player Gary Neville and singer Tom Grennan. Last year saw England triumph with a 6-3 victory, marking the Three Lions' first win in six years. Soccer Aid was jointly established in 2006 by Robbie Williams to fundraise for children's aid organisation Unicef. Since its inception nearly two decades ago, the charity match has raised over £106 million.

It's like getting sushi in Alabama.' To which proud Cockney geezer Danny fired back: 'That would only be a man who is not from London who would say that. 'I think he's from Ipswich, which I think sums him up.' Ouch. But Ed whisked actor Danny off to see his beloved West Ham play Ipswich Town last month. In a pre-recorded podcast chat with Louis Theroux, which has just dropped, Ed said: 'I was asked about fish and chips and I said you have to see the seaside to eat them, and I wouldn't necessarily want to eat them in London. He took a big offence to that. 'It was a jokey offence, he had a pop at me and I got in contact with him and just said, 'Come to Ipswich'.'
