Ex-Wimbledon champion Annabel Croft on downsizing after her husband's sudden death & the truth behind new man rumours
Former tennis champ and broadcasting royalty Annabel Croft on downsizing after the loss of her husband, why Strictly was a lifeline, and who to watch at Wimbledon 6 Annabel is one of the BBC's top tennis presenters, covering tournaments worldwide – including Wimbledon, which starts tomorrow Credit: Mark Hayman 6 Annabel with her late husband Mel 6 Annabel reflects on her Strictly 2023 training, which began just weeks after losing husband Mel to cancer Credit: BBC It's 8:45pm, yet the former tennis pro is still brimming with energy . Is stamina her superpower? 'It does feel a bit like that,' she laughs. 'But this is peak season for me – and I love it.' As one of the BBC's most respected faces of tennis programming, Annabel covers tournaments around the globe including the Wimbledon Championships, which start tomorrow. And the day before she steps on to Centre Court to host the trophy ceremony for a third year running, Annabel will celebrate her 59th birthday, plus a major milestone in her sporting career. ' READ MORE ON ANNABEL CROFT She went on to win junior versions of Wimbledon and the Australian Open and represented Great Britain in the Federation Cup (now the Billie Jean King Cup), becoming one of the world's Top 25 players, before quitting at 21 after growing tired of travelling the world alone. 'I've lived my whole adult life with Mel, and now I'm on my own' Today, 38 years on, Annabel is encountering similar feelings again, two years since At the five-bedroom family home that Mel built, she occupies just the kitchen and her bedroom, saying she no longer 'needs very much'. 'It's taken me back to living on my own before Mel came into my life, as that 15-year-old playing at Wimbledon for the first time, travelling the world on planes and across America on Greyhound buses. Most read in Celebrity 'I've gone full circle to that person, because I've had to,' says Annabel, who has spent the past few months sorting and decluttering in readiness to move. I've realised I don't need much any more. I don't want overheads, maintenance, a garden to look after and pay for – anything that is excess to what I need. 'The house has been my life for 25 years. Everything about it is Mel, because he built it. We've had amazing memories here that are impossible to forget, but I'm ready to go,' she says, admitting she is looking forward to 'simplifying' her life. Strictly fans can't believe Annabel Croft's 'real age' as she stuns with cartwheel in tiny 60s minidress' 'What gives me pleasure is going for a morning walk in the park, running with my friends, having a coffee, a meal out and being with my family. "I've realised I don't need much any more. I don't want overheads, maintenance, a garden to look after and pay for – anything that is excess to what I need.' Annabel's journey with America's Cup yachtsman Mel began in 1987, when they met filming BBC yachting series Cudmore's Call, when she was just 21. "The pair went on to have three children, 'I've lived my whole adult life with Mel, and now it's a weird thing to be doing [life] on my own,' she says. 'I just walk into an empty house, so I try to trick my brain into thinking about when Mel was out at a work function and I'd come into the house on my own. Only, every night it is like this. 'Thankfully, I'm busy – that's always been the same and that's helpful.' Annabel remembers the days and nights she devoted to training during the Partnered with South African dancer and choreographer 'I wish I could find some way of replacing Strictly in my life in terms of what that show was to me. "It was so special and joyful,' she says, choosing not to be drawn on recent Strictly controversies, specifically surrounding pro dancers Giovanni Pernice and Since then, duty-of-care measures have been introduced, including a 24-hour helpline and chaperones in rehearsal rooms. 'I think having a permanent chaperone would have been quite restrictive [when it comes to building] the relationship between you and the dancer,' says Annabel. 'I would have found it quite awkward, but if that's what you know, then that's all you know.' Annabel speaks regularly to Johannes, who she says she 'adores'. But what of the friend she shared a lunch date with in April, sparking speculation of a new romantic connection? 'He's my bank manager and a great friend who was also close to Mel,' sighs Annabel. 'We were looking at photographs of Mel together. Mel adored him and he's been really helpful to me.' 'Sport was my chance to feel like I had something to offer' Family is everything to Annabel – and now, that family is growing. In September, her eldest daughter Amber will welcome her first child. 'It feels like yesterday that I was cradling my baby [Amber] in my arms, feeding her, bathing her and taking her to nursery school. "I can't believe that same baby is now having a baby herself!' says Annabel, who hopes the birth will be before her nationwide speaking tour starts. 6 Annabel made history at 15 when she became the youngest Brit in nearly a century to play in the Wimbledon main draw Credit: Mark Hayman 'I leave on September 24, so I hope the baby isn't late because I want to be supporting with cooking and helping out. Amber was 10 days early, so I'm hoping that her baby will be, too!' Amber married husband Hector last summer and, in August, it's son Charlie's turn to tie the knot. But Annabel will not be imparting marital advice. 'I can't bear hearing people talking about how to make a marriage work,' she says. 'If you have to try and make it work, there's something wrong. "Marriage should just be, and if you're compatible with somebody and enjoy their company, you go on the journey together.' I was very shy and introverted and had no interest in academics. Sport was my chance to feel like I had something to offer. Raised in Kent by her club-level-tennis-playing dad James, a chartered surveyor, and mum Susan, a housewife, Annabel was hooked from the moment she first picked up that racket aged nine. 'I remember gazing out of maths class at the sports pitches, because all I wanted to do was to be out there. "I was very shy and introverted and had no interest in academics. Sport was my chance to feel like I had something to offer,' she says. This summer, with women's sport sitting front and centre of a blockbuster line-up of events, Annabel hopes young girls feel inspired, just as she was watching tennis rivals 'From women's tennis returning to the Queen's Club for the first time in 50 years and players excelling at Wimbledon, to the Lionesses defending their title at the Women's Euros and female cricketers and rugby stars competing at their World Cups, these moments matter. 'Visibility drives engagement. Sport gave me so much, and it can do the same for the next generation of young girls.' Annabel made history at 15 when she became the youngest Brit in nearly a century to play in the Wimbledon main draw. At 18, she reached the third round, facing her idol Chris Evert on Court One – one of her 'most defining' career moments – and won Junior Wimbledon Singles that same year. 'I'll always be part of Wimbledon history and that makes me proud' But, aged 21, she stunned the tennis world by walking away. 'Ever since, people have come up to me and asked: 'Why did you stop so early?'' she says, explaining that she 'fell out of love' with the job. 'I didn't want to live that circus lifestyle any more,' she adds, admitting the decision was unplanned. 'I shudder now, thinking: 'How did I do that with such conviction but without any idea of what I was going to do?' "I didn't have an education or a plan. I was young and naive, and hadn't actually thought beyond that moment.' Fortunately, life after tennis served her well. After five years starring in pantomime, which built her confidence, Annabel found her stride in television, starring in Channel 4's adventure series Network Seven, before replacing Anneka Rice on Treasure Hunt in 1989. Once digital sports channels emerged, Annabel returned to her tennis roots, becoming a tennis presenter and pundit, first for Eurosport, then Sky Sports and the BBC. These days, as a member of the All England Club, she still plays 'two or three times a week'. Occasionally, she gives friends guided tours, ending at the Wimbledon trophy cabinet, where her junior title is enshrined. 'At the time, it didn't mean that much to me, but it does now. I'll always be in that trophy cabinet, which is part of Wimbledon history,' she says. 'That makes me proud.' Does she regret not staying to win the women's title? 'Of course, I would have loved to have won the main trophy, but I made a decision that I didn't want to chase that dream any more. "I regret that I didn't understand what I was doing at the time. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, isn't it?' Annabel lights up again as we discuss the players to watch at this year's Wimbledon Championships, namely Spaniard Annabel has also got her eye on American player 'She's had her ups and downs on her journey in tennis, but I admire her as a character and a player – her attitude, work ethic and how she's battled through challenges,' she says of young French Open winner, Coco.

First night of Marilyn Manson's UK tour is CANCELLED after campaign against shock rocker's sex abuse allegations
THE first night of Marilyn Manson's UK tour has been cancelled after a campaign over sex abuse allegations. The first leg of the singer's One Assassination Under God Tour had been set to kick off at Brighton Centre on October 29. 3 There was a campaign to stop venues hosting him over the allegations 3 Marilyn Manson performing on stage 3 Others branded the call to cancel the gig as censorship A notice on Ticketmaster reads: 'This event has been cancelled. 'Ticket sales have stopped, but there may be tickets available for other dates.' In January, prosecutors in the US said they would not file charges against Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said the allegations were too old under the law and the evidence is not sufficient to charge the 56-year-old rocker. LA County sheriff's detectives had said early in 2021 that they were investigating Earlier this month in an open letter to the Brighton and Hove city council leader Bella Sankey, Sian Berry, the Green MP for Brighton Pavilion, called for the October concert to be cancelled. The letter was co-signed by some victim support groups and the University of Sussex students' union. It read: 'Many survivors in Brighton and Hove, and organisations supporting them, will have serious concerns about this booking and its wider impact on other people visiting the city centre, local residents and the wider community.' Most read in Music The letter, which was posted online, prompted a flood of responses from the public pointing out that Others branded the call to cancel the gig as censorship. Who is actress Evan Rachel Wood? By Jennifer Roback EVAN Rachel Wood made headlines in January 2022 after she made allegations against Marilyn Manson in a new documentary. The two had previously dated in the early 2000s before parting ways. Born September 7, 1987, Wood, 34, is known as an American actress, model, and musician. She is the winner of a Critics' Choice Television Award and has also been nominated three times for a Primetime Emmy Award as well as three Golden Globe Awards. Wood is famously known for portraying the role of Dolores Abernathy on HBO's Westworld and has also been seen in Thirteen, Whatever Works and Across the Universe. Over the years, she has also appeared in a number of music videos including Green Day's Wake Me Up When September Ends and Marilyn Manson's Heart-Shaped Glasses (When the Heart Guides the Hand). As of January 2022, she has an estimated net worth of $8million, and earns $250,000 per episode of Westworld, according to In January 2022, Wood accused Manson, 53, again of raping her on his music video set in 2007. She was reportedly "coerced into a commercial sex act under false pretenses," and had only agreed to a 'simulated sex scene," according to a new documentary about her life and career, which premiered at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. In the film, Wood claimed that Manson 'started penetrating me for real' once the cameras were rolling," 'I had never agreed to that,' she said. 'I was coerced into a commercial sex act under false pretenses. That's when the first crime was committed against me and I was essentially raped on camera.' She has also accused the star of grooming her. "The name of my abuser is Brian Warner, also known to the world as Marilyn Manson," "He started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifically abused me for years. I was brainwashed and manipulated into submission. I am done living in fear of retaliation, slander, or blackmail. "I am here to expose this dangerous man and call out the many industries that have enabled him, before he ruins any more lives," she continued. Manson and Wood met back in 2006 when she was 18 and he was 38. They later went on to start a relationship that lasted from 2007 to 2010. Manson denied the accusations, calling them 'horrible distortions of reality'.
