Jolanda Fun (left), who has prepared invitations for her own funeral in advance, told the Sunday Times earlier this month that she hopes to become the latest person in The Netherlands to seek a doctor-assisted death for psychiatric problems. Fun told the British newspaper she has long suffered from an eating disorder, depression, autism and mild learning difficulties - and that she would rather her life end peacefully rather than attempt suicide herself. 

It is the ultimate special relationship, even if it's been fairly low-key since Kate became part of the Royal Family - exactly 13 years ago on Monday. But this week, the huge esteem in which King Charles holds his daughter-in-law (the one who lives on this side of the Atlantic) was given a very public seal of approval. On Tuesday, Charles admitted Catherine to the Order of the Companions of Honour, making history in the process.

The future King  dropped in on Freddie Hadley, 12, St Michael's Church of England High School in Rowley Regis, Sandwell, after the youngster wrote to him last year. During the visit, the Prince joined Freddie and his classmates for a segment on the school's radio station, where he was asked to share a 'dad joke'. The royal then told a knock-knock joke about 'Interrupting Cow' instead, saying it's currently Princess Charlotte's favourite and he's hearing it a 'lot' at home.

Rice's long-term partner Lauren Fryer (right) has deleted all of her Instagram pictures after receiving a barrage of abuse online over her appearance. Lauren, 25, who is the childhood sweetheart of Arsenal's Rice, also 25, wiped all posts from her Instagram page in recent days after finding herself the target of cruel online trolls. Footage from the away end at the Emirates on Tuesday showed a group of supporters appearing to chant 'Declan Rice, your bird's a fat ****'.

Sacha Baron Cohen's has broken is silence after Rebel Wilson's redacted memoir was released in the UK on Thursday.  The book was published in the US earlier this month, and features a chapter titled Sacha Baron Cohen And Other A**holes, where Rebel makes claims about Sacha's behaviour during the filming of the 2016 film Grimsby, which he has strongly denied. However the UK copies feature the wording crudely blacked out due to what Rebel brands 'peculiarities' of English law.

Footage shows the pandas running the zookeeper as she appears with snacks, with one of them nibbling her ankles before another knocks her to the ground. Both animals climb over the terrified zookeeper and quickly bury her underneath them as they paw at her head and appear to nibble at her neck, arms and legs. The helpless worker rolls from side to side, hoping to get the massive pandas off, but only one of them runs away, while the other holds onto her and gnaws at her midriff in front of hundreds screaming visitors. When she finally manages to get up, the zookeeper has a rip in her shirt as well as scratch marks on her shoulder.

Captain Tom's daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore is selling her family's £2.25million Bedfordshire mansion by showcasing her late father's pandemic heroics in the listing. The 52-year-old is selling the seven-bedroom property with her husband Collin, 66, after being forced to tear down the £200,000 spa complex in February, which they built without planning permission. Tom inspired the nation during the pandemic after he walked 100 laps around the garden of the house to raise more than £38million for NHS charities. And the late lockdown charity fundraiser's legacy has been preserved at the home, with a bust of him seen in the main hallway in pictures on Rightmove. But the property is now being sold after the family faced criticism for building a contentious spa building that was bigger than previously agreed with the local authorities.

Vladimir Putin has previously said he has no intention of deploying nuclear weapons in space - but Moscow's refusal to green-light the resolution has led Western lawmakers to question the Kremlin's true intentions. Russia's UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia dismissed the resolution as 'absolutely absurd and politicised,' and said it didn't go far enough in banning all types of weapons. But US Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield asked: 'Today's veto begs the question - why? Why, if you are following the rules, would you not support a resolution that reaffirms them? What could you possibly be hiding?' Meanwhile, China is increasing its space capabilities at an alarming rate. In 2022 it conducted an apparently successful test of a nuclear-capable hypersonic glide vehicle and has developed an array of anti-satellite weaponry. Now, as US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan asses that 'Russia is developing a new satellite carrying a nuclear device,' MailOnline takes a look at what a new space arms race would look like and the kinds of terrifying weapons that could soon be orbiting the Earth.

Two horses that ran rampage through London after being 'spooked by builders moving rubble' are in a 'serious condition'. Household Cavalry horses Vida and Quaker were two of five that bolted as they passed through Wilton Crescent in Belgravia at 8.40am yesterday and heard a loud noise from concrete dropping on the floor from a builder's travelator. Five people, including three soldiers riding the horses, were injured in three separate incidents during the six-mile rampage on Wednesday that lasted two hours. Yesterday morning, six soldiers and seven horses from the Life Guards were on an extended Watering Order, an exercise to keep up the fitness of animals not involved in the public-facing King's Life Guard duties. They are thought to have been spooked by the noise and five bolted, with two remaining in place. Defence minister James Cartlidge said Vida and Quaker were 'in a serious condition, but as I understand, still alive'.

A Household Cavalry horse is not your average steed. Specially-trained to ignore artillery fire, they work patiently amidst large crowds and deal with the commotion of state events. But on occasion, it has been known for these ceremonial chargers to lose their composure, whether that be an unexpected noise or a pesky tourist getting just a bit too close. Often seen on special ceremonial occasions, these elite horses and their riders have traditionally been part of the monarch's elite bodyguard. But every now and then the soldiers have to turn their attention away from the King in hot pursuit of a military horse on the run.

1975 singer Matty, 35, was surprisingly the focus of the 34-year-old's heartbreak album which was released last week to rave reviews. Matty and Taylor dated briefly after her split from her long-term boyfriend Joe Alwyn last year and despite the short relationship plenty of songs on the record appear to be about him.

Plans are also 'subject to relevant consents', suggesting local residents or the council could oppose to plans. People have taken to social media to joke about the listing, with one user calling it the 'funniest listing they've ever seen'.

The former president greeted teamsters on a construction site and signed MAGA hats as he prepared for another day of testimony in the Manhattan hush money trial. Crowds of construction workers and supporters lined up through the night as they anxiously waited to catch a glimpse of their beloved former president. Meanwhile, Trump's lawyers are heading to the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. on Thursday morning in attempts to persuade the nine justices that he is immune from prosecution.

The province of Aceh is the only area that practices Sharia law in the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, and the only region where floggings take place. Horrifying pictures show the brutal punishments of up to 20 lashes being meted out by members of the Sharia police, known as the Wilayatul Hisbah. The women are seen kneeling with their heads bowed and the men standing up as they are caned. In the aftermath, more disturbing images show one man's injuries after he received the lashes, with officials inspecting his back which is left bleeding and scarred.

A mother-of-two has transformed her 1970s house into a £2.6million mansion. Claire Totman, 38, bought the three bedroom property with her mum, Liz, 71, for £875,000. But the designer has transformed the drab house into a luxurious mini stately home and added £1.7m to its value in the process. The designer from Weybridge, Surrey had a vision to remodel the outdated property into an 'elegant' and 'timeless' home. Ms Totman spent £460,000 on her huge project, spending more than eight months extending the house at the side, back and roof to create four large bedrooms, and an additional drawing room.

How on earth do you prepare someone who has never set foot on British soil before for the realities of daily life in its capital? When Claudine arrived in August her husband presented her with a shoebox containing what he believed were useful preparatory aids to settling into British life. 'There was an Oyster card to navigate the London transport system, an A-Z, some cash, a British flag, an umbrella and different kinds of chocolate,' Simon says now. 'That's when I learned I love Maltesers,' adds Claudine, who is known as Coco, as she looks at her husband with an adoring smile.

Masato Fukuda was only lightly injured in his encounter with a pair of bears on Thursday morning in Nayoro city, on the northern island of Hokkaido, police said. He was on a walk to see a waterfall in Nayoro's mountainous area at around 10.30am when he chanced upon the two brown bears poking their faces out of bushes, Japanese media reported. The two bears picked the wrong person to mess with when they approached the 50-year-old, who was visiting the woodland area from Toyota City. One of them came towards him - but unfortunately for the animal, Mr Fukuda was experienced in the martial art of karate.

John Terry has revealed that Rio Ferdinand once blanked him on a beach in Dubai after the ex-Chelsea captain had been accused of being racist to his brother, Anton.  The allegation was made by Anton, following a game between Chelsea and QPR at Loftus Road in 2011. The ex-England captain was charged over the incident, but was cleared in court.  Terry has always denied abusing the ex-QPR centre back, but was hit with a four-match ban and fined £220,000 by the Football Association following the incident. 

They're one of the most distinguished families in the land with an ancestry stretching back more than 700 years. The late Queen Mother was one of their number. They own 14,500 acres of Scottish highlands and have occupied the same castle since 1372. They're rich, powerful - and, most importantly, have provided through their bloodline our present King. But you wouldn't want to be one of them!

Some Might Say it's a needless extravagance, but Liam Gallagher has been given a green light to build a bar within the grounds of his north London mansion. The former Oasis singer snapped up the mock Tudor property with fiancée Debbie Gwyther in 2020 after moving out of his former home, a £2.1million terrace, in Highgate - reportedly after quarrelling with neighbours. With five bedrooms, sprawling landscaped gardens and several hand-carved fireplaces, the home was purchased by Gallagher, 51, for an estimated £4million.

This is the shocking moment a 'road-rage' brawl broke out in the middle of a dual carriageway near Heathrow Airport. Two men - dressed in black - can be seen fighting with a third who is wearing light-coloured trousers. They spun each other around as they wrestled, before a pair of them ended up on the ground. An Audi A1 and Nissan Juke were parked up in the inside lane during the incident on the A4 westbound, Hounslow, West London on Monday. The shocking scenes were filmed from a car stuck behind them as no vehicles were able to pass.

Bishop Alan Gates ripped the clerical collar off of Reverend Tamra Tucker's neck after the reverend momentarily forgot her words during a church service. Although the bishop meant his act to be playful, it has generated significant blowback. Bishop Gates has publicly apologized to the reverend but it is unclear if she has accepted it.

A stunning Grade II-listed manor in rural Kent that is surrounded by a moat has gone on the market for £4.5million. Washenden Manor is a historic 17th-century property with an ancient moat running all the way around it, except for the driveway to the home. The private estate also includes a pretty converted Oast house, a three-bedroom cottage and a detached Kent Barn with development potential. The property sits in a ringfenced plot of 85 acres of farmland and woodland just outside the village of Biddenden, Kent. The main house has been restored and modernised over the last 15 years but retains original features like exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces. The property has 4,530 sq ft of accommodation over three floors with a kitchen/breakfast room, with pantry, utility room and cloakroom, a sitting room, study and family room on the ground floor.

Ambush interviewer and left-wing provocateur Crackhead Barney made an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored Wednesday night to discuss her alleged altercation with actor Alec Baldwin this week in New York City, shown right. During the interview, Barney accused the 30 Rock star of 'maiming' her as she showed up for the interview bandages and a crutch while covered in white paint. Barney began Wednesday's interview by telling the former CNN host: 'I've been waiting for you Piers f***ing Morgan!'

A British couple have packed in their overworked schedules to live on a 42ft yacht -but it's not all plain sailing. Having grown tired of their 9-5s, Laura, 43, and Ross Colledge, 39, from Cornwall, decided to sell their house and splashed out on a £100,000 yacht. For the last five years, the pair have been sailing around the Greek islands with their two sons, nine-year-old Noah and Josh, 12, who are unconventionally schooled. After buying their 2005 Bavaria 42 yacht in 2018, the couple began darting between Newquay and Plymouth to sharpen their boating skills, and since ended up further afield. But the bold move, which sees the two enjoy living a less consumerist lifestyle has not come without struggle, particularly as Laura's health took a turn for the worse. Pictured above are the family of four enjoying their unconventional boat lifestyle abroad.

Officers in search of drugs damaged two front doors, three shed doors, sixteen PlayStation games and £100 Hoodrich sliders during the raid. No drugs were found, but police did seize two motorbikes which they believe to be linked to anti-social behaviour. This is the third time West Mercia Police has raided the property and Mr Harrison believes 'someone with a grudge' has made fake reports to police about him.

Mark Zuckerberg has gone from T-shirts to glam with gold chains, fur coats, and an AI-generated image of himself with a beard. His change comes as Facebook faces a myriad of concerns over stealing and selling user's data and its role in the mental health of young users.
