Baby joy! Tennis star Sam Stosur welcomes her second child with partner Liz Astling
Sam Stosur has welcomed her second child with partner Liz Astling. The Australian Grand Slam winner, 41, took to Instagram on Wednesday to announce the arrival of her daughter Emmeline Grace. Sam shared a sweet photo of her newborn baby wrapped in a blanket and wrote: 'And beautiful chaos reigns once again. 'Welcome Emmeline Grace. Evie is beyond happy to have a little sister and we are over the moon. We love you so much little Emmy.' Many flocked to the comments to congratulate the couple on their newest addition, with tennis star Maddison Inglis writing: 'So beautiful!!!! Can't wait to meet her.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'Just another gorgeous baby girl for me to love endlessly ! Emmy your Auntie Nae Nae can't wait to meet you!! Sam and Liz, I'm so happy for you both and Evie, you're going to be the best big sis ever! Love you all,' Rennae Stubbs commented. 'Congrats you guys,' Lizette Cabrera said while Alicia Molik added: 'Congrats Sam, Liz and Evie.' Sam, who shares daughter Genevieve with Liz, announced she was expecting her second child back in April. Taking to Instagram, Sam revealed that her family was set to expand with a cute clip. The video showed Sam hurriedly dusting off and setting up a pram and a baby capsule on her back deck. 'Time to dust off the baby gear,' the sports star wrote over the exciting vision. Captioning the clip, Sam confirmed the news revealing that, this time around, it was her turn to carry the precious cargo. 'We're so excited for the new addition to our family,' she wrote. 'It's my turn this time.' Liz gave birth to Genevieve in 2020. The tennis player announced at the time her girlfriend Liz had given birth to a baby girl on June 16, 2020 in a doting post on Instagram. Sam had gushed about her joy at becoming a mother and how the coronavirus pandemic had been a blessing in disguise for her young family. The Australian grand slam winner said motherhood has been 'absolutely amazing'. 'Even the tougher times don't seem that bad when you just look at her little face and you just want to cuddle her and hold her all day long. It's absolutely incredible,' Sam said. But she admitted she was still adjusting to becoming a mum and all the craziness that comes with it. 'It still seems a little bit weird to say she's my daughter, but I'll get used to that. It's absolutely amazing,' she said at the time. As she battled through the learning process and sleepless nights, she said she' felt fortunate to have been blessed with little Evie. Sam is the only Australian woman since the legendary Evonne Goolagong Cawley, more than half a century ago, to claim major titles in singles, doubles and mixed doubles - all forms of the professional game. Her on-court career came to an emotional end in 2023 following a first-round Australian Open mixed doubles loss with Mathew Ebden. She won the Australian Open women's doubles in 2019 with Zhang Shaui, as well as the mixed title at Melbourne Park way back in 2005 with countryman Scott Draper. The 2011 US Open singles champion also claimed grand slam women's doubles titles at the 2006 French Open and at Flushing Meadows in 2005 and 2021 and spent 61 weeks atop the doubles rankings during her career.

British ITV drama 'that made TV history' storms Netflix top 10 chart
Netflix viewers have rushed to watch a legal drama from the man who created The Crown. First hitting screens in 2002, The Jury was the first TV show to ever be allowed to film inside the historic Old Bailey courthouse. Before he was busy delving into the private lives of the Royal Family, Peter Morgan penned this drama, which fans have called a 'compelling must-see'. The first season followed the killing of a teenage boy, who was stabbed 28 times on his way to school one morning. After one of his classmates is charged with murder, a jury must decide his guilt. 'The trial, which is engulfed in protests and media speculation, brings together 12 jurors who find themselves having to make a decision that the entire country is waiting for,' it was teased of the series. Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. The jurors tasked with making a ruling included Charles, a young man who has left the seminary to search for his lost love; Elsie, an old lonely woman who is dying; Johnny, a recovering alcoholic; Jeremy, a once-wealthy family man who lost all his money when conned by a friend in a bad investment and Marcia, a single mother who is forced to let her mother back into her life during the trial. The actors who played jury members included Gerard Butler, Helen McCrory, Stuart Bunce, Nicholas Farell and Tim Healy. Over a decade later – in 2011 – it was followed by a second season. This week both were added onto Netflix, with the show now one of the most watched shows in the UK, currently sitting on number 7 on the charts. In 2010 the second season of The Jury was announced, with ITV describing the show as a 'character-based series which focuses on the everyday people who find themselves at the centre of one of the most controversial criminal re-trials of their time'. Standing alone from the events of the first season, the second follows the retrial of Alan Lane, who was convicted five years earlier of the murder of three women whom he'd met through an Internet dating site. The jurors include Paul Brierly, a single man looking after his mother; Katherine Bulmore, a teacher who has had an affair with a 17-year-old pupil; Tahir Takana, a Sudanese immigrant waiting to get a visa to join his brother in the US and Rashid, a quiet young man with Asperger's Syndrome. The cast included Julie Walters, Sarah Alexander, Roger Allen, Danny Babington, Lisa Dillon and Jo Hartley. Sharing their thoughts on the show online, viewers called it 'thought-provoking', 'compelling' and the 'perfect binge watch'. Speaking in 2011 Peter, who had gone on to work on movies including The Queen, Frost/ Nixon and The Other Boleyn Girl, spoke about how another season came to fruition after a decade. More Trending 'I had fun doing the original one and enjoyed it and missed it. I suddenly thought, 'I'd like to do that again'. There'd been silence from ITV so I assumed they didn't want me to do another one, and I think maybe they thought because I was writing films I wouldn't want to do one,' he said. 'So, there was this misunderstanding. 'But I said, 'Fancy another one? Because I'd really love to write one'. And they said, 'Sure'.' View More » The Jury is streaming on Netflix. Got a story?

British rock icon, 63, expecting baby with wife, 38, after 'secret' wedding
An icon of British rock has revealed that he is expecting a baby with his wife after their 'secret' wedding. Tears for Fears musician Roland Orzabal, 63, shared the news that his wife Emily Rath, 38, is pregnant in a romantic post on Instagram. His wife can be seen posing in front of a beautiful rock backdrop with plants as she holds her bump. The couple, who live in the Hollywood Hills, privately tied the knot back in 2020 after the pandemic changed their wedding plans. Discussing their special day, Emily, who is a photographer, told The Sun: 'We had to postpone our original wedding date in September 2020 because of Covid. 'I felt as all corona brides have been feeling: angry, sad, gypped, and confused as to when we should have a wedding. 'Roland and I were in the States for work. We desperately wanted to get married, even just legally, and so to honour our original date, we secretly eloped, just the two of us, atop a mountain in Aspen. It was the most magical moment of my life. 'It breaks my heart that my family could not be there to see it, but no one wanted to risk their safety. 'Two weddings was never my dream, but we adapted, separating the legal wedding from the celebratory wedding to come.' She went on to say: 'In September we were able to use the autumnal flowers we'd originally wanted, and next year we can have all of the spring flowers!'
