Lucie Jones and Ethan Boroian are said to have ended their marriage. The pair, who initially crossed paths during their 2009 X Factor auditions, have apparently decided to separate. Reports suggest that the couple are discreetly navigating through a divorce, with Lucie having unfollowed her husband on social platforms. Sources indicate that over time, the two have drifted apart. An insider remarked that they were "young when they married" and now Lucie's priorities have shifted. A source disclosed to The Sun: "She has been busy focusing on pursuing her career on the West End stage and travelling the globe, they're moving on with their lives. Lucie's in a really good place and has already moved on and met someone else and has loved performing at Glastonbury." They further commented: "Ethan is no longer in showbusiness and their lives were headed in different directions," reports the Mirror.

Prior to the festival, she teased "cool surprises" for what she described as a "huge celebration of music and theatre" gearing up for a thrilling three-day stint. Overjoyed by the invitation to perform, she shared her excitement with the Mirror before her performances, giving a hint of what festival-goers could anticipate from her shows. She remarked: "When I was there last year, I was like, 'why is there no musical theatre here?' I was just walking around and I was thinking, these people would love a bit of defying gravity. "I think a lot of people think of musical theatre as like jazz hands and tap dance. But that just isn't the style that I do. It's going to be super upbeat and you're going to know every song. There's a bit of that in musical theatre, of course, but it's a whole world of other stuff as well." Lucie rose to fame on X Factor in 2009 (Image: ITV ) She also hinted at exciting collaborations for her upcoming performances. "There's a couple of friends that I've got that are playing at Glastonbury who, quite possibly will be joining me, or I'll be joining them during their set," she revealed. Article continues below "I'm really excited about one or two of them. It's going to be super cool and they're not necessarily musical theatre acts." Lucie, who once flew the flag for the UK at Eurovision, has since acknowledged how the X Factor dramatically transformed her career. The talent show has been a launchpad for several artists, including Joe McElderry, with whom Lucie remains good friends. "I'm going to Ibiza tomorrow and I'm going to see Joe McElderry," she disclosed.

Gogo confirms STC approved for Gogo C1-LRU for multiple aircraft types to support continued inflight connectivity for legacy ATG customers
$35,000 installation incentive if they complete the C1 installation before December 31, 2025 The Gogo C1 box will ensure simple transition to renewed LTE network. Broomfield, CO., June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO) has confirmed its Gogo C1 line replaceable unit (LRU) has received Supplemental Type Certification (STC) for 42 aircraft models through an Approved Model List (AML) granted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The confirmation covers 70% of North American Gogo legacy air-to-ground (ATG) customer aircraft and, once equipped, will ensure continued compatibility with and connectivity to Gogo's forthcoming LTE network upgrade. Metrea Aerospace Design (MASD) collaborated with Gogo to generate the AML STC, which covers aircraft including Cessna Citation, Gulfstream, Bombardier Challenger and Learjet, Dassault Falcon, Embraer, and Hawker family models. Equipping the Gogo C1 will enable current customers operating with legacy ATG 1000, 2000, 4000 or 5000 systems to seamlessly transition to the upgraded Gogo Biz North American 850MHz Licensed LTE network when it comes online in May 2026 to ensure uninterrupted service. The Gogo C1 LRU also provides a practical bridging capability for customers planning to switch up to Gogo AVANCE products, which enables optimized inflight productivity through internet, voice, streaming, popular pilot applications, and more. To maintain continuity, the C1 houses a dual-technology aircard that connects to the existing network and will automatically transition to the new LTE network when it becomes available. To simplify installation, Gogo has designed the C1 with external dimensions and attachment points to match the legacy products, enabling a form-fit replacement. The LRU swap will require minimal downtime, and the Gogo C1 hardware will provide customers with a simple transition pathway, delivering access to a strengthened, future-ready network for more capacity and an improved customer experience. 'ATG continues to represent a valuable connectivity solution for aircraft operating over North America, so we want to make it easy and fast for our customers to maintain their connectivity while seamlessly transitioning to the upgraded LTE network,' says Gogo CEO Chris Moore. 'We know that customers need to plan connectivity upgrades, so we've invested in creating the Gogo C1 LRU to help clients navigate the practical and financial pathway from legacy ATG services to our AVANCE portfolio. We are already working with our extensive approved dealer network to ensure it's a streamlined process.' Customers are eligible for a $35,000 installation incentive if they complete the C1 installation before December 31, 2025. Gogo is also providing other generous promotions to enable a direct transition to Gogo AVANCE, with its higher connection speeds, over-the-air (OTA) system software updates, and access to Gogo Vision inflight entertainment.

Gogo successfully completes first 5G end-to-end call.
5G end-to-end connection marks a significant step towards delivery of next-generation air-to-ground connectivity. Gogo ATG tower Broomfield, CO., June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Broomfield, CO./ June 18, 2025 – Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO) confirms today that GCT Semiconductor has successfully completed the very first end-to-end call using its next-generation 5G technology. The call, which took place on June 16, 2025, confirms the Gogo 5G chip is fully functional and ready to move through the final phases of integration. The technology milestone represents a critical stage in Gogo's journey towards delivering 5G air-to-ground (ATG) connectivity to North American operators. GCT Semiconductor Holding, Inc. (NYSE: GCTS) delivered the new 5G chipset to Airspan, a provider of network deployment solutions and Gogo's 5G partner, in May. The successful integration of the microchip, which is smaller than a thumbnail, into hardware and software allowed Airspan to configure and support the end-to-end call. The connection, set-up in the lab, confirms the 5G technology is ready to transition to the next phase of integration testing and performance optimization. With the final trials and documentation completed, Gogo will be ready to ship the 5G solution to its MRO network for installation. Along with a more resilient connection, the Gogo 5G ATG system, which has been designed specifically for business aviation users, will provide customers with high-speed broadband for smoother video conferencing, streaming, and other activities across multiple devices, than has been possible before. This latest development builds on the significant strides Gogo has already made in its 5G test effort, which includes receiving formal approval from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to produce and manufacture the AVANCE LX5 Line Replaceable Unit (LRU), which with a smaller form factor and single box option enables streamlined installation. Gogo has also invested in a network of 170 5G towers covering the U.S. and parts of Canada, the installation of a new '5G core' at its data center, the development of a new 5G aircraft antenna, as well as the 5G-optimized AVANCE LX5 line replaceable units, LRUs. 'Gogo's commitment to delivering 5G connectivity has been consistent, even when there have been setbacks, so the successful validation of the chip represents a major achievement for us and our dedicated partners at GCT and Airspan,' says Chris Moore, Gogo CEO. 'Our North American tower network is 5G-ready, the antennas are prepared for shipping, and the technology is in place to enable connection across North America through the AVANCE LX5 LRUs. We're excited to be moving closer to our goal of delivering 5G connectivity to customers by the end of the year and are confident that customers will enjoy the upgraded experience. This is certainly a defining moment for business aviation connectivity.' More than 300 aircraft are pre-provisioned for Gogo 5G connectivity. Customers operating within the CONUS region and seeking reliable, high-speed connectivity can expect that installing the Gogo 5G system will take approximately two weeks, while an aircraft with an AVANCE LX5 LRU can be equipped in a shorter time frame.

New musical Come Fall in Love 'is a show for everyone' say stars
Manchester once again finds itself in the spotlight with the UK premiere of a new musical. Inspired by the the longest-running movie in Indian cinema Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, - DDLJ to its legions of fans - Come Fall in Love certainly has a lot to live up to. The multi-award winning DDLJ has been playing continuously in Mumbai since its release in 1995. The company of Come Fall In Love in rehearsal (Image: Craig Sugden) But one look at the team behind Come Fall in Love indicates that it's a show which is more than up to the task. The book and lyrics are by Nell Benjamin who was responsible for Mean Girls and who won an Olivier Award winner for Legally Blonde. The music - 18 original English language songs - is by Vishal and Shekhar, the Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber of Bollywood and directing the whole thing is Aditya Chopra, who was responsible for the original movie which has inspired the show. For the musical's stars, Jena Pandya and Ashley Day, bringing the production to the stage could have proved a daunting experience. But their excitement at being part of something special is palpable. 'What was nice is that we had a workshop about six months before we started rehearsals which allowed me to get into the right head space to be working with such legends,' said Jena. 'They have been so nice and put to much trust in us. I feel so lucky to be part of this team." Ashley added: 'I've worked in musical theatre for 20 years (he's starred in An American in Paris and The Book of Mormon) but to experience this has been amazing.' Come Fall in Love was performed in San Diego in 2022 but the show has been considerably reworked for its UK debut at the Opera House. Jena plays Simran, a young British Asian woman who is travelling around Europe before her arranged marriage. On her travels she meets Rog, played by Ashley, a self-styled party boy and an unlikely romance develops. 'I think the conscious decision that was made to change to plot to introduce Rog as a British white boy is so important,' said Ashley. 'It's now about two cultures and right now that's so modern and so relevant. It's good medicine.' The quality of the writing and the music has deeply affected both of the stars. 'Legally Blonde has to be the best movie to stage adaptation of them all,' said Ashley. 'So to have Nell involved with this production is amazing. She's able to get really under the skin of the characters and her storytelling is so witty and clever. 'Then there's Vishal and Shekar, they're absolute legends. The fact that this is their first stage musical absolutely blows my mind.' 'Each song has its own style,' added Jena. 'Even in rehearsals where the surroundings are not particularly atmospheric, it makes me emotional. It's just the way they have done it blending authentic Indian melodies with songs which are pure pop, are punky or just rock. Everyone can watch it and love it.' Ashley Day and Jena Pandya in Come Fall in Love (Image: ATG) Both Ashley and Jena are keen to stress that you don't even have to be aware of DDLJ to love Come Fall in Love. 'What is great is that you don't need to know the film,' said Jena. 'It works as a stand-alone story; it's so energetic, it sucks you in and makes you feel so much – happy, sad all of those things. I think that's what people will love it. 'Of course I hope fans of the original film will come and they will feel that nostalgia for a film which has been part of their lives for so long. 'But if you're totally new to the show, you're going to love it too,' said Ashley. 'It's such a big show, it really is something special.' So how do the two stars compare to the characters they play? Simran is highly organised, someone who initially keeps her emotions under tight control. 'In some ways I suppose I am quite similar to Simran,' said Jena. 'I can certainly understand why she like the way she is. She has such strong values she has to stick to, and has always got this conflict going on inside her head to keep her friends happy and her family happy which does make her be a bit tightly strung at times. 'It's fun to play as she goes on this journey where she loosens up and falls in love. 'I do see myself in her especially in the way I react to my own dad, he's a classic Indian dad so it's fun to play that dynamic, that's not really acting - sorry dad, but he'd probably say the same thing!' As for loud, brash party boy Rog? 'Maybe there was a time a long time ago I was as confident as he is,' said Ashley. 'But when we first meet him he does some things which made me feel a bit 'icky'. He's not a great guy at the beginning. But he changes so much through the show - it's a great story arc.' Bringing any brand new show to the stage is a challenge and the stars of Come Fall in Love had a simple message for audiences. 'I'd say to people this probably will open your eyes in a way you didn't think they would in a musical,' said Ashley. 'You're going to feel a lot of soul and humanity and it's not fluff.' 'Don't think that this is a show for any one audience,' said Jena. 'If you think maybe you won't enjoy it or it's not for you, that's not the case.' Come Fall in Love is at Manchester Opera House until Saturday, June 21. Details from
