Former WWE Star Has No Hard Feelings for Ex-wife Over Extramarital Affair With Brock Lesnar
Image via Instagram Brock Lesnar is undoubtedly the most accomplished combat sports athlete of all time. His achievements include the 2000 NCAA D1 Wrestling title, WWE Championship on 10 different occasions, and being a former UFC Heavyweight Champion. Moreover, his personal life is also flourishing as he has been married to former WWE star Sable since 2006. However, their relationship started on a rather unceremonious note. For the unversed, Sable cheated on her ex-husband and WWE star, Marc Mero, in 2003 before getting with Lesnar. The former Intercontinental title holder was married to Sable for 10 years between 1994 and 2004 and even worked together on television. And the 64-year-old recently opened up about his ex-wife's betrayal and the situation leading to it. Marc Mero Forgives Sable Despite Suffering Betrayal at the Hands of His Ex-Wife Mero has recently written a new book titled 'Badd to Good'. In an interview on Wrestling Life with Ben Veal, the former WWE star revealed that he has no anger in his heart for Sable and that he has forgiven the former Women's Champion. 'Forgiveness is so important in life because, like I said, if you don't forgive someone, it's a cancer that eventually destroys you. People ask me all the time, 'How do you know when you've forgiven someone?' and for me it was easy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Upto 15% Discount for Salaried Individuals ICICI Pru Life Insurance Plan Get Quote Undo It was like when someone mentioned her name, I didn't get angry anymore, and I wish her absolutely the best. I mean, we share a daughter together." Marc Mero Speaks Out on Sable and Brock Lesnar The former WWE star reflected on his time with his ex-star and added, 'There's so many great memories that we shared together, but also there was a lot of heartache, and writing about that brings back those memories and those feelings of hurt and pain and things that you went through, but I just use it as fuel to help other people go through things that they may be going through in their life. But, like I said, no animosity, no bitterness, no resentment, and especially total forgiveness. " For the unversed, Sable and Mero both left the WWE after backstage issues with Vince McMahon at the end of 1999. However, the former Women's Champion returned to the promotion in 2003, and during this stint, she got into an affair with Lesnar, who was new to the company and was reigning as the WWE Champion on the SmackDown brand. This is when Mero discovered Sable's affair with 'The Beast Incarnate' through her voicemail. This led to their divorce in 2004, and two years later, Sable and Lesnar got married. Since retiring from wrestling in 2006, Mero has become a motivational speaker and is also the founder of the Champion of Choices non-profit organization.

Tara Sutaria Opens Up About Her Journey In Bollywood As An Outsider: "It Has Been A Difficult And Lonely Task To..."
New Delhi: Tara Sutaria made her big Bollywood debut in 2019 with Student of the Year 2 alongside Tiger Shroff and debutant Ananya Panday. After 6 years, the actor got candid recently as she spoke about the loneliness she had to tackle, being an outsider. She also revealed that she had to get used to a lot of things. What's Happening Tara Sutaria spoke about being proud of herself for navigating a lot of things that she was not used to in Bollywood. Speaking to The Times Of India, she shared, "When I began my career in films, I didn't know a lot of people in the industry, and I was new to a lot of this whole world of filmmaking. So, it took many years to get used to a lot of things, and to understand how the industry functions and works. It has also been a very difficult and a very lonely task to manoeuvre and navigate so many things because when you're not from the inside, you don't have anybody to really discuss things with, seek advice from." She added, "There have been so many instances in my career where I wish I could have had guidance, I wish I could have had people from the inside of the industry help me out. In my experience, it's best to listen to your gut and intuition for your own career." Furthermore, she said that it becomes a little bit easier for people who come from a filmy background as they have a lot of inside information. Work Tara Sutaria's last release was the 2023 survival thriller Apurva. She is now gearing up for Awarapan 2, which is a sequel to Emraan Hashmi's 2007 hit film. Tara Sutaria And Veer Pahariya Rumoured To Be Dating Veer Pahariya and Tara Sutaria, who are rumoured to be dating for a while, are seemingly holidaying together in an undisclosed location. The rumoured couple shared separate pictures on their respective Instagram handles earlier this week. The Internet was quick to spot the similarities in the locale, assuming they are holidaying together. Tara and Veer walked the ramp together for the first time back in March when they had turned showstoppers at the Lakme Fashion Week. Their on-ramp chemistry sparked the buzz about their rumoured affair. Soon after their first public appearance together, The Times of India reported that the two have been dating for a little over two months now, and they are still "trying to figure things out." In A Nutshell Tara Sutaria opened up about taking time to get used to how things function in the film industry.

Paris opens river Seine for public swimming for first time since 1923
Parisians rushed for a dip in the Seine on Saturday as authorities opened the river to public swimming for the first time since 1923 after an extensive clean-up operation spurred on by it being used last year as a venue in the Paris Olympics. Three sites along the banks of the Seine in the city will be able to welcome over 1,000 swimmers daily until August 31, local officials said, to the delight of the Parisians and visitors who were among the first to take the plunge. "Really nice, I'm impressed, surprised," said 24-year-old Victoria Cnop, a Brazilian who lives in Paris. "I never imagined being in the water close to the Eiffel Tower." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tome uma colher de estômago vazio e veja a gordura descer pelo ralo Revista Saúde Saiba Mais Undo "The water is clean, it's warm, it's clear. There is a bit of algae, but that's normal," said 51-year-old Karine. "Come here everybody, it's great!." The reopening of the Seine for public swimming follows efforts by authorities to improve its water quality so it could be used for Olympic events last summer. Live Events Investments included connecting tens of thousands of homes to the sewer system, upgrading water treatment facilities, and constructing large rainwater storage reservoirs to prevent sewer overflow during heavy storms. While delays, triggered by the health impact of heavy rains, impacted some Olympic training sessions and the men's triathlon event, competitions in the Seine eventually went ahead, bolstering confidence in the river's safety for public swimming. Daily water quality tests will be conducted during the swimming season, with green and red flags - similar to beach safety systems - indicating whether swimming areas are open or closed. "It's wonderful," said John Drummond, a 54-year-old visitor from Canada. "It's great for the environment, it's great for the city, it's great for the people that live here. So very good initiative." As well as the three sites within Paris, 14 swimming areas outside the capital's boundaries will be set up on the Seine and the Marne rivers. Two of those already opened on the Marne in June.
