'An Incredible Experience': Drone Footage Shows Basking Shark Gliding Along Scottish Coastline

Yahoo02-05-2025
A man said his family experienced an exciting sight when he captured incredible drone footage of a basking shark as it glided along the coastline in Scotland recently.
Alan Nash (who goes by @the_getafterit_family on Instagram) said his family was with him on Longniddry Beach in East Lothian when they spotted what Nash estimated was a seven-meter-long basking shark as it swam along the coastline.
'Can't believe we saw it. An incredible experience,' Nash told Storyful.
Basking shark sightings in Scotland typically peak in July and August, but are reported as early as April, according to the guide company Basking Shark Scotland. Basking sharks are second-largest living fish species, after the whale shark. Credit: Alan Nash / @the_getafterit_family via Storyful

Spice Girl Melanie C stuns on romantic island getaway with Australian model boyfriend

Spice Girl Melanie C – aka Sporty Spice – looks as fit as ever in these candid new vacation photos. The 90s pop legend, 51, escaped to the island of Mallorca for a romantic getaway with her partner, Australian actor and model Chris Dingwall. Advertisement The loved-up pair each shared a carousel of photos from the vacation on Instagram, with Melanie looking absolutely ripped in a tiny two-piece black bikini – and in another snap, relaxing on a boat while reading a book about the history of ecstasy use in dance music. 4 Spice Girl Melanie C shared photos from her romantic vacation with model Chris Dingwall. @melaniecmusic / Instagram Fans and friends were full of praise for the star in the comments section. 'Seeing Melanie look this healthy and happy melts my heart,' one longtime fan wrote. Advertisement 'Gorgeous to see you so happy and relaxed,' wrote UK broadcaster Kate Thornton. 'You're both so cute together. Love seeing you enjoying moments of love,' another fan gushed. 4 The pop singer captioned her Instagram carousel 'a slice of paradise.' @melaniecmusic / Instagram Dingwall is originally from Sydney but travels the world as a model signed to Ford Models and Chadwick. Advertisement The pair went public at Wimbledon in London last July, days after they were spotted walking hand-in-hand at the iconic Glastonbury festival. But they had been quietly dating for months before that: Melanie's frequent visits to our shores earlier in 2024, ostensibly for DJing gigs, also doubled as quality time with Dingwall as the pair shared romantic getaways in resorts across Brisbane, Byron Bay and the Whitsundays. 4 The 90s pop icon showed off her toned body in the photos. @melaniecmusic / Instagram Since those early days the pair have become more open about their relationship, with Melanie C even professing her 'love' for Dingwall on social media in January after he wished her a happy 51st birthday. Advertisement Furthering her Aussie connection, Melanie C will soon appear as one of the celeb coaches on the next season of Seven's music contest The Voice alongside Ronan Keating, Richard Marx and Kate Miller-Heidke. She was based in Bondi while she lived here to film the season, and also made a surprise appearance at a Sydney gay club in April, filming scenes for a new music video. 4 The couple first went public in July 2024. @melaniecmusic / Instagram Melanie C is undoubtedly the most private of the five Spice Girls when it comes to her love life, largely keeping her relationships out of the public eye since a string of romances with high-profile musicians. She has a teenage daughter from a longtime relationship with ex-partner Thomas Starr. The pair split in 2012 after a decade together. After that, Melanie dated her manager, Joe Marshall, for seven years before they split in 2022.

Why Travis Kelce Posting Taylor Swift Pics Now ‘Wasn't Random'

THE RUNDOWN On Thursday, Travis Kelce went 'Instagram official' with girlfriend Taylor Swift, posting a carousel of pics featuring the Eras Tour singer during their time together this year. In the caption, he wrote, 'Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 💯' The high-profile couple seems to make careful decisions about appearing in public and sharing intimate looks into their relationship and they're generally fairly discreet on social media. A source speaking with People says that Kelce's choice to finally post images of Swift 'wasn't random.' 'It was intentional,' the insider claimed. 'They've been private in their own way, but this was his way of showing how serious things have become.' The source added, 'They're in a really solid place and more in sync than ever.' The couple started dating in the summer of 2023, but Swift first appeared at one of Kelce's Kansas City Chiefs games in September of that year, announcing the relationship. 'When I met her in New York, we had already kind of been talking, so I knew we could have a nice dinner and, like, a conversation, and what goes from there will go from there,' Kelce told WSJ magazine in November 2023 of their first date. 'Everybody around me telling me: 'Don't fuck this up!' And me sitting here saying: 'Yeah—got it.'' Swift has posted Kelce on Instagram before, in June 2024, when she shared a selfie taken backstage at her London show while being visited by Prince William and his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Kelce's collection featured pics with friends and family, including his brother, Jason, and mother, Donna. Swift appeared beside Kelce in photos from a trip to Montana, on a boat, and in a restaurant where they're wearing matching black outfits. One photo even revealed Kelce's lock screen, which featured a black-and-white pic of the couple. Some fans thought Swift was flashing an engagement ring in the blurry image, since she is clearly holding up her hand. But the singer is reportedly wearing her boyfriend's Super Bowl rings in the image. She's proud of him.
