A cabin crew member has shared details of a handwritten note she received from Meghan Markle, which featured a surprise message and plug to her brand.
American Airlines air stewardess Nina Vida was working when the Duchess of Sussex joined her flight, and an interaction quickly sparked as the flight crew penned her a friendly welcome message. In a TikTok video, Nina, who is based in New York, described how the team welcomed Meghan aboard with a note that read: "It's a pleasure serving you; we love you real bad."

As a fan of personal correspondence, Meghan responded with her own handwritten note, tagging her signature alongside a bit of promotion for her new lifestyle brand, As Ever. The recently launched company is Meghan's latest venture, and was previouly named American Riviera Orchard until she came up against copyright issues.

In the video, Nina proudly displayed Meghan's reply. It read: "Dear AA girlies, thank you for the love, hospitality and handwritten note - you know me well. All love right back to you. As ever, Meghan."
While the royal couple commonly travel by private jet, there have been instances where they opt for public airlines. Notably, Prince Harry jetted off on American Airlines for King Charles ' Coronation in May 2023, the Express reports. Meghan's exact date on the American Airlines flight remains a mystery, but she was spotted in New York not long ago for the prestigious Time 100 summit.
In the TikTok video, Nina couldn't help but rave about Meghan's handwritten note, although she confessed it was a struggle to decipher the stylish script. Enthusiastically, she said: "This handwriting is giving rich! It's giving expensive, it's giving princess."
Nina often shares insights into her life as a cabin crew member on TikTok and boasts over 1K followers. Viewers were delighted to see the video about Meghan's interaction and one commented: "Thank you for sharing - Meghan is awesome!"

Another said: "She's so sweet and authentic. Meghan is pure elegance and kindness." A third noted: "Ahh lovely story. Always such nice feedback from people who meet her in person. Meghan is a true princess."
One particularly captivated fan exclaimed: "That note!!! Laminate it, frame it, put it in a lock box at the bank! I would cherish it forever!".
Nina also shared that Meghan made a point to compliment her nail art, despite the captain's remarks that they were somewhat "intense". The stewardess has in the past mentioned serving celebrities such as Ariana Grande during flights.
Last week, Meghan shared an adorable array of images on her Instagram in celebration of her seventh anniversary with Harry, showcasing yet again her renowned calligraphic talent in the date captions.

My boyfriend is 27 years older than me - people say our relationship is disgusting and I'm only in it for money but they're just jealous

A young woman who is dating a man twice her age has hit back at people criticising her relationship. Sass, 27, from London took to social media to reveal the romance with her 'silver fox' boyfriend, who is 54. The self-described 'spoiled girlfriend' enjoys a luxury lifestyle with her much older boyfriend, regularly jetting off for sun-soaked holidays and skiing holidays together. Sass often shares scenes of her glamorous life on TikTok, where she has 3,500 followers, but more recently she's been criticised for dating someone so much older. The content creator recently opened up about their romance online, posting a picture of the two snuggled together alongside a caption revealing their years of birth - 1970 and 1997 respectively. People in the comments have blasted what they described as their 'disgusting' relationship and urged her to choose 'self-respect over money'. But Sass said she couldn't be happier and has defended her boyfriend, describing him as 'highly educated, emotionally intelligent, financially secure, a great personality.' Hitting back at the hate comments, Sass said their relationship was 'supportive and happy' despite the 27 year age gap. 'His family are lovely! If you know us as individuals, us as a couple makes sense. Those we know in real life understand, are supportive and happy for us,' she said. Responding to hateful comments, she said she 'doesn't date younger like the majority of women'. She said the negative comments were 'unfortunate' but insisted she wasn't letting them get in the way of their blossoming romance. 'It is unfortunate but I'm having fun. I'm not letting them get to me because they literally don't know anything about me or my partner,' she said. Her family don't mind the relationship - though she said she would date her 'silver fox' regardless of their input. 'My family are chill and even if they weren't, it's me that has to live with my decisions. I'm happy with my life,' she said. Sass's partner supplies her with a steady stream of gifts, recently unboxing a brand new pair of of Louboutin's worth several thousand pounds. The couple enjoy five-star holidays, staying only at the most expensive hotels and dining on Michelin star menus. However, some didn't see the happy side of their romance, accusing Sass of 'using him for money' while others denied the pair were truly in love. One wrote: 'It's better to date a man that's a bit older but a 27 year gap though? Come on, it's a lifestyle choice - you can just admit you want a soft life provided to you.' A second remarked: 'My dad was born in 1977 and me in 1994 if they're old enough to be your parent it's not right sorry.' 'Nah, it's about money,' another wrote while a fourth told her to seek 'self-respect over money'. In one tongue-in-cheek 'get ready with me' video, Sass helped cut her boyfriend's hair and said, 'contrary to popular belief, I'm the one that groomed him'. However, others urged them to 'ignore the haters', sharing their similar stories of dating older men. One wrote: 'Trust me girl, you are in winning strike, people think younger woman go for older men for money, there is more wisdom to an older man, and not to mention the way they treat their younger woman is the exact way a real woman want to be treated.' She said the negative comments were 'unfortunate' but insisted she wasn't letting them get in the way of their blossoming romance A second said: 'I don't even know why people are mad. It's giving financial security.' Another remarked: 'People are projecting in the comment section. Two grown adults with mental capacity to make decisions. meaning, the both know what they want and if they're happy with each are you to judge them. 'Just because you wouldn't be in such age gap relationship doesn't mean the rest of the world wouldn't.' And things appear to going well for the couple, with Sass light-heartedly telling her followers to 'expect your invites soon' - appearing to refer to a potential wedding.

Glastonbury Festival fans surprised with secret set from iconic DJ and his son

Glastonbury Festival 2025 fans were over the moon with Fatboy Slim's secret set, with his son Woody Cook joining him on stage Glastonbury Festival 2025 fans were over the moon as Fatboy Slim took to the stage to perform a secret set. The iconic DJ performed to just a few dozen people, with Fatboy Slim, real name Norman Cook, bringing on his son Woody - who he shares with radio star Zoe Ball. The 61-year-old DJ brought the energy to the small stage while his son Woody, 24, acted as the hype man and danced and bounced around. Fans were delighted by the set and took to the video shared on Instagram to compliment the father-son duo, with one person writing on Woody's page: "Well done lads." ‌ ‌ "You have no idea how much we love you Norman. Yes was on the beach in Brighton over 20 years ago. LEGEND," another huge fan commented. One said: "What an amazing thing for father and son to do!!" and another questioned: "Why is it not on iplayer?" The 24-year-old son of Fatboy Slim and Zoe Ball recently discussed his family in an interview with OK! Last month, he revealed he's ready to give back to his 'heroic' mum and dad as he discussed following in his parents' footsteps. When asked about DJing, he said: "It's beautiful. They say when you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. I've always been a storyteller and I never originally wanted to be a DJ, but I loved making music so much. Turns out, DJing is just like telling stories, through sound." Woody also doesn't mind people comparing him to his parents as he praised the "heroic people". He said: "I can't tell you who I'd be without my parents. "They gave me the best education ever from them. More than anything, my parents are heroic people. They are the most generous, loving, kind, hard-working people on Earth, and that's what they've given me. "I feel like I owe it all to that. It doesn't matter who they are in their day-to-day life, they are amazing human beings." It was a hectic weekend at Glastonbury as Sunday kicked off with Glastonbury bosses slamming Bob Vylan's 'Death to IDF' chants on stage, declaring the punk rap duo had "crossed the line". It comes as police confirmed that they are investigating the footage. ‌ On Sunday afternoon, Rod Stewart performed in the Legends slot after fellow singer Kate Nash lashed out at the legend on Saturday evening. The rocker earned rave reviews but errors in his set included introducing special guest Lulu before realising she would be joining him on stage later. He made some surprise comments back in 2023 about retiring, where he said: "I'm not retiring. But I want to move on. I had great success with The Great American Songbook, all-American standards, and I've just done a swing album with Jools Holland, which is going to come out next year, so I want to go in that direction. I just want to leave all the rock 'n' roll stuff behind — for a while, maybe."

A second agreed: "I'm a sucker for this stuff." "OMG I'm obsessed," another chimed in. Of course, the new mini range isn't the only reason to dash to Primark right now. Fashionistas have also been raving about the shop's "unreal" clothing selection, especially one stylish top. The Bow Detail Peplum Top is priced at just £10 and comes in sizes XS to XL. It comes in three colours - lemon, baby pink or white - and features pretty bow details and a keyhole front. And fashion fans have insisted the peplum silhouette is giving 90s vibes. Describing the new arrivals on the website, the Primark team say: "When sunshine calls, this top answers with all the right details. "Designed in a soft shade, it's sleeveless for easy layering.

The top can be dressed up or dressed down for a variety of occasions, making it a versatile addition to your wardrobe. While it will look perfect paired with jeans and trainers for a casual look, it can also be dressed up with a satin midi skirt and sandals for summer days. Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
