However, soon after the pair got together, they began abusing prescription drugs.

Kaitlin eventually got pregnant, which was the push the couple needed to quit drugs, but just six months after she gave birth to their son Camden, the pair started using again, and moved on to harder drugs.

“When we were getting high we turned into different people, our personalities changed so fast and the things we did were so out of character”, she told Love Don’t Judge.

By 2015, the couple had resulted to stealing from people to get the money to buy drugs, so, determined to change, Kaitlin decided to go to rehab.

During her time in rehab, she could tell that Aaron was still using when he was on the phone to her, so decided to cut contact.

However, just a week after she got out of rehab, she got a phone call stating that Aaron had overdosed and passed away.

Aaron’s brother Rory, had not been a fan of Kaitlin when his brother was alive, due to her drug use, but after Aaron’s passing, he decided to reach out, as he felt sorry for Camden.

When Kaitlin heard Rory’s voice, it reminded her of Aaron’s, which she said felt like a “comfort.”

Rory began to visit Kaitlin and Camden at weekends, and the couple eventually fell in love.

The pair were at first first hesitant to share their relationship with friends and family, and Rory and Aaron’s mother said that she initially found the relationship “weird”.

However, since Aaron and Rory share the same “values”, she said that she eventually came round to the idea, as she knew that Camden would be raised well by his uncle.

After Aaron’s death, Rory took on the role of Camden’s father, and he even calls him dad.

At first, Kaitlin struggled with the fact that she was dating her dead husband’s brother.

“I had questions about whether we were making the right decision as a couple”, she said.

“But Aaron wasn’t an option, and his was the only opinion I cared about.”

The couple have decided to share details of their unique relationship online, and have been met with their fair share of backlash.

Trolls have claimed the relationship makes them “sick”, but the couple don’t let the comments get to them.

“I think we’re good for each other, after seven years we have proven to be a great team, and create a beautiful family”, Rory said.

He added that he thinks his brother would be happy if he knew that Rory was dating Kaitlin, as he would know that she and Camden were being well looked after.

THOMAS TUCHEL has been officially announced as the new England manager.

The former Chelsea boss has been out of work since May, when he left German giants Bayern Munich.

The German coach was a name that was constantly mentioned to be high on the FA‘s shortlist of potential candidates to replace Gareth Southgate.

Other leading contenders for the England post included the likes of Jurgen Klopp, Graham Potter, Eddie Howe and Pep Guardiola.

Interim boss Lee Carsley was also under consideration for the role but he will resume his role as head coach of the Under-21s.

What is England boss Thomas Tuchel’s salary?

Thomas Tuchel has signed an 18-month deal with the FA to become the new England head coach.

The former Chelsea gaffer will begin his job in charge of the Three Lions on January 1, 2025.

SunSport understands that the German will take home £5million a year as England boss.

Terms in Tuchel’s contract also reportedly include a bonus for winning the World Cup with the next edition of the huge tournament staged in 2026 across the United States, Mexico and Canada.

Tuchel has taken a drastic pay cut in comparison to the £10m a year he was on during his time as Chelsea boss.

What has Tuchel said about becoming England boss?

On becoming England head coach, Tuchel said: “I am very proud to have been given the honour of leading the England team.

“I have long felt a personal connection to the game in this country, and it has given me some incredible moments already.

“To have the chance to represent England is a huge privilege, and the opportunity to work with this special and talented group of players is very exciting.

“Working closely with Anthony [Barry] as my assistant coach, we will do everything we can to make England successful and the supporters proud.

“I want to thank the FA, in particular Mark and John, for their trust and I am looking forward to starting our journey together.”

ENGLAND have finally unveiled their new manager in Thomas Tuchel – but when will the German officially take over?

The Three Lions have been without a permanent boss since the departure of Gareth Southgate following England’s loss to Spain in the Euro 2024 final.

Lee Carsley took over as interim manager and has so far won three of his four Nations League matches, losing 2-1 to Greece in the other.

But there were doubts surrounding the former Everton player’s desire to stay on as England manager.

And in the meantime, the FA have acted swiftly to appoint Tuchel, who last managed Bayern Munich and England captain Harry Kane.

There’s one more international break in 2024, but will Tuchel be in place by the time it rolls around in November?

When will Thomas Tuchel take over as England manager?

Tuchel’s appointment is set to be announced as a news conference on Wednesday afternoon.

According to the BBC, Lee Carsley is set to remain as manager for the last two Nations League games against Greece and Republic of Ireland in November.

It’s also been said that Tuchel will officially take up his post as England boss on January 1, 2025.

His first match in charge will be in March when the first international break of 2025 takes place.

It’s not yet known who England will play in March, but there’ll be two friendlies, with one of those games likely to be held at Wembley Stadium.

Tuchel’s contract is set to be 18 months long, which will take him to the World Cup 2026 in USA, Canada and Mexico.

No manager has ever won a World Cup managing a country they aren’t from.

Tuchel won the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021, beating Manchester City 1-0 in the final after replacing Frank Lampard as manager four months earlier.

A TOP chef and UK restaurant boss has sadly died aged 56 as emotional tributes pour in.

Shabir Hussain, who was hailed as the ‘King of Curry’, and founded huge Indian restaurant chain Akbar’s, passed away after a brave battle with cancer.

Akbar’s Restaurant Group posted on Facebook: “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Shabir Hussain, founder of Akbars Restaurant Group.

“All restaurants will now be closed and will reopen on Friday 18th October at 5pm.

“Please remember Shabir Hussain in your prayers. May Allah (SWT) grant him the highest rank in Jannah and bring peace and strength to his family during this difficult time.”

The icon’s first restaurant opened in 1995 with just a small 28 seat capacity in the heart of Bradford.

But the popular chain soon grew and saw dozens of branches across the north, Scotland and the Midlands.

Shabir hosted the grand opening of their latest venue in Blackburn in March this year.

ENGLAND have revealed why they waited to announce the appointment of Thomas Tuchel after he secretly signed his contract.

Tuchel, 51, was today announced as Gareth Southgate‘s permanent successor for the Three Lions job.

The FA took a week to announce the deal after Tuchel had signed his contract[/caption]

An FA statement said: “The FA has announced that UEFA Champions League winner Thomas Tuchel is the new England senior men’s head coach and will be assisted by internationally-renowned English coach Anthony Barry.

“Tuchel returns to English football after a trophy-laden period with Chelsea who he led to become European and world champions, having also been successful at elite level in Germany and France.

“In addition, he was voted UEFA and FIFA’s coach of the year in 2021 in recognition of his work in England.

“His arrival at the FA concludes an extensive recruitment search which began in July, just after the Three Lions’ run to the UEFA EURO 2024 final.”

However, it has now been revealed that England chiefs penned terms with the German on an 18 month contract, worth £5million a year, last week.

The England statement said the former Chelsea and Bayern Munich boss had signed his contract on Tuesday, October 8.

They explained the decision to delay the announcement by over a week had been made in an effort to “minimise distraction around the international camp that has just concluded”.

The final call on his appointment had been made by the FA Board early last week, following a recruitment process led by FA CEO Mark Bullingham and men’s technical director John McDermott.

The recent games under interim boss Lee Carsley – who appeared to let the future of the England boss slip at a press conference – ended in a 2-1 defeat to Greece and 3-1 win over Finland.

Tuchel will take over the role in January, with interim boss Carsley to take charge of the final Nations League matches next month.

MEGHAN Markle has been branded a “diva” who “didn’t like her wings being clipped”, according to esteemed royal commentator Jennie Bond.

The former BBC royal correspondent insisted that the Duchess of Sussex could have been an asset for the royal family, but she wasn’t happy during her time there.

Speaking to Bella, Jennie claimed: “Meghan could have been such a credit to the royal family – she is an independent, forthright woman with her own career, her own thoughts, her own charities and causes.

“She could have been exactly what a modern monarchy needs. I think the monarchy didn’t act as carefully as they should have done. 

“But Meghan is by all accounts a bit of a diva. She didn’t like what she saw, and she didn’t like her wings being clipped.”

This comes as Meghan and Kate have both returned to the public eye in separate continents.

The Princess of Wales has undergone two recent official visits following her announcement that she has finished her chemotherapy treatment.

The first was meeting cancer-stricken 16-year-old Liz Hatton, and the second was sitting down with victims of the Southport attack.

Meanwhile, we saw the Duchess of Sussex looking glamorous in a recycled red dress on the red carpet at the LA Children’s Hospital gala earlier this month.

The swanky appearance was Meghan’s first solo venture in months.

Jennie added: “Catherine and Meghan are indeed two very different women and are now on very different paths.

“Everything Catherine does is to help others: the disadvantaged, the young and now those suffering from cancer. 

“It’s not for money, or fame or self aggrandisement. It is to help people who are in trouble or difficulty and to do good.”

The royal expert claimed Meghan is also using her “star power” to draw attention to good causes, but said she is “very active in the commercial world”, and is also pursuing financial ventures to support their new life in California.

Although the two women both married into the royal family, they appear to be on very different paths, with Kate focusing on the future of the monarchy now doctors have given her the all clear to phase back into work.

Meanwhile, Meghan’s upcoming ventures include a Netflix cooking show about friendship and her lifestyle brand American Orchard Riviera.

Tense friendship

The royal wives have had a number of alleged moments of tension of the years, including Meghan telling Oprah Winfrey Kate that made her cry just days before her wedding.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry recalled in his bombshell memoir Spare that the women had a bust-up after Meghan made a comment about Kate’s hormones.

During an interview with The Cut, Meghan was asked if she thought there was hope of a reconciliation between her and the rest of the royal family.

Meghan said: “I think forgiveness is really important. It takes a lot more energy to not forgive.

“But it takes a lot of effort to forgive. 

“I’ve really made an active effort, especially knowing that I can say anything.

“I have a lot to say until I don’t. Do you like that? Sometimes, as they say, the silent part is still part of the song.”

AFTER more than two years off the telly, Amanda Owen is back on screens with a new reality series.

But her return has shocked viewers who feel the Yorkshire Shepherdess and undergone a huge transformation.

Amanda, 50, was seen on TV in the reality show Our Yorkshire Farm which chronicled her life at Ravenseat Farm with her now ex-husband Clive and their nine children.

The series was cancelled following their shocking split two years ago, but the family have now reunited for a new reality series, Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids, which premiered on Monday (14 October).

During the show’s opening scene, Amanda reintroduced herself to viewers and discussed the family’s new project, but all viewers could focus on was her appearance.

Channel 4 fans took to X, formerly Twitter, to discuss how “beautiful” the mum-of-nine looks after undergoing a radical transformation.

Fans of the reality star said Amanda has lost weight, probably as a result of all the hard graft she does on the farm.

“Amanda must burn off more calories in a day than an Olympic athlete. She must run/walk/lift the equivalent of a decathlete every day,” one viewer commented.

“Watched it tonight and was absolutely brilliant so lovely to see you and your gorgeous family back. Amanda you look very beautiful and so full of interesting wisdom,” added another fan who was happy to see the Owen family back on the screen. 

Pointing out her weight loss, a third said: “Loved tonight episode. Amanda did well in explaining about her and Clive which started the new series well. I do think Amanda has lost a lot of weight but under the circumstances I guess no wonder. I’m sure it is going to be a great watch and I wish the Owen family well.”

A fourth agreed: “The last few months/years have taken it out of Amanda it is clear to see, it is going to be a great series watching how they restore the house and delve into the history, good to see them all involved in the project and that there is still chemistry between Amanda and Clive. Next episode please.”

Amanda wasn’t the only one who’d undergone a transformation as fans gushed about how the kids – who have been appearing on TV since 2015 – have all grown up too.

The Yorkshire Shepherdess rose to fame as the matriarch of Channel 5’s surprise hit Our Yorkshire Farm, which showed the reality of life on their working hill farm in the remote Yorkshire Dales.

Amanda, along with her then-husband Clive and their brood of nine children from little Clemmie, Edith and Annas up to Reuben and Raven, all became famous in their own right as the show brought the challenges of Ravenseat to a wide audience.

The programme was axed following Amanda and Clive’s separation in 2022 but now the whole family has returned in new Channel 4 series Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids.

The series, which kicked off this week, documents the family’s progress in rebuilding Anty John’s, an old farm house on their property which Amanda and Clive are hoping to turn into a permanent home for their family, despite having separated.

In the first episode, viewers saw Amanda get stuck into the new project which Reuben began digging, and a historian unearthed the legacy of the building’s importance in the Ravenseat area.

Previously speaking about their decision to reunite in a teaser for the news five-part series, Amanda and Clive said that their different approaches are what makes them such a good team for this project. 

Although they do still get on each other’s nerves.

“He does my head in, I do his head in, but we are both basically on the same side,” Amanda explained.

Before Clive added: “I’m very practical, so that’s my side of things, but Amanda, she’s very good at saying how she wants things.”

Episode 1 of Our Farm Next Door is available to stream on All4 and Episode 2 premieres next Monday at 9pm on More4.

A MAN accusing Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs of groping him when he was a child has been pictured with the rapper before the alleged assault.

The unnamed John Doe is one of over 100 alleged victims listed in a slew of lawsuits that accuse Diddy of crimes including rape, sexual trafficking and racketeering.

Getty

The filing alleges that Diddy groped his privates at one of star’s infamous White Parties in 1998 when John Doe was just 16 years old.

A photograph included in the suit, filed in New York on Monday, shows Diddy with his arm around the teen after they met at the Hamptons event.

It marks the first child sex assault claim against Diddy and said he dubbed the act a “rite of passage” for breaking into the music industry.

Diddy’s White Parties were infamous in celebrity circles and were attended by hordes of A-List stars in the 90s.

John Doe’s lawsuit claims the parties were a key part of the alleged assaults.

The court filing read: “[He] would tell victims, ”this is what it takes to be famous, what are you willing to do to become a star?

“There existed something sinister – a dark underbelly of crime, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, bribery and prostitution.

“Combs is a menace to society, women and children.”

Diddy denies the allegations against him. 

John Doe was invited to one of the notorious White Parties while living in New York City as a teen.

The filing read: “When he received the invitation, he felt like he finally had the opportunity to rub shoulders with the who’s who of the industry.

“He thought it could be his chance to break into the music industry.

“As John Doe entered, he spotted countless celebrities and A-listers who were from the music and entertainment industry.

“He recognized faces he had seen on TV and on the big screen.

“The young boy was making his way through the crowd and heading toward the restroom when he ‘unexpectedly bumped into Combs’.

“Shocked, John Doe found himself face to face with Combs, a titan in the music industry, standing right in front of him at his own party.”

The picture apparently captured the moment John Doe encountered Diddy – showing them in a vast garden dressed all in white.

John Doe’s filing continues: “Combs took an interest in John Doe and wanted to talk to him.

“They walked to a more private area near the portable restrooms brought in for the party.

“There, John Doe told Combs he was a big fan of Combs and shared his dreams of becoming a star.

“Combs smiled, telling him he had potential and ‘the look.’ When John Doe admitted his voice was not great, Combs assured him that did not matter.

“Combs abruptly told John Doe that he needed to drop his pants.'”

The suit then goes on to describe in detail the alleged assault – saying that John Doe removed his trousers because of “fear, anxiety and the imbalanced power dynamic between himself and Combs”.

It also claims that some of the those accusing Diddy of assault have said he used “lotions or similar body oils… laced with GBH” on his victims.

Gamma hydroxybutyrate (GBH) is commonly known as a “date rape” drug because it is hard to detect when slipped into a drink and can be used as an anaesthetic – producing feelings of drowsiness or relaxation.

In March this year cops raided Diddy’s Los Angeles and Florida homes, seizing drugs, videos and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil.

Lawyer Tony Buzbee is representing some 120 people in lawsuits against the musician.

He has repeatedly said more high-profile people could be named in the documents as the investigation moves on.

Some 25 of those he is representing claim they were minors when they were allegedly abused.

The number of allegations against Diddy began to spiral when a video showing the rapper beating his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in a hotel in 2016 was made public this year.

On September 17 he was charged with three federal counts, including sex trafficking, for allegedly forcing victims to take part in drug-fuelled sex parties he called “Freak Offs.”

The Sun has reached out to Diddy’s legal team for comment.

THE offspring of a Hollywood great walked the red carpet in honour of their late movie star dad.

The grown-up children of the big screen legend were at the event together to mark the memory of their father Christopher Reeve.

Superman star Christopher is survived by Will Reeve, 32, Alexandra Reeve Givens, 40, and Matthew Reeve, 44.

The trio posed together at the UK premiere of the documentary Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story.

The special event was part of the BFI London Film Festival held at BFI IMAX Waterloo in London.

“It’s a beautiful thing to be able to see the full picture of a person’s life,” Alexandra told People.

“There were high highs and low lows but also two deep true loves and [three] kids that together blended into this beautiful family.”

The actor’s life is laid bare in the emotional behind-the-scenes documentary.

It is believed to show the real, raw man behind the superhero, before he tragically died from heart failure in 2004 aged 52. 

The Kryptonian hero was left paralysed from the neck down in 1995 after a freak horse riding accident.

Will said about his father’s legacy: “Heroism is so much more than superficial strength and a glossy image.

“It’s about integrity, showing up for your family, persevering through hard circumstances, and still having that joy for life. That was our dad.”

Speaking about whether he will ever follow in his father’s acting footsteps, TV star Will told the publication: “I don’t know. I like my job as correspondent at ABC News.

“I think I like, maybe, performing, but I don’t know if I’m any good at acting.”

Directors Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui said about Reeve’s mentally changing following the life-altering accident.

Ian explained: “Christopher learned what was important after that. It wasn’t about making a successful film or more roles. It was his family, and focusing on his close bonds.”

The official synopsis reads: “The story of Christopher Reeve is an astonishing rise from unknown actor to iconic movie star.

“His definitive portrayal of Clark Kent/Superman set the benchmark for the superhero cinematic universes that dominate cinema today.

“Reeve portrayed the Man of Steel in four Superman films and played dozens of other roles that displayed his talent and range as an actor, before being injured in a near-fatal horse-riding accident in 1995 that left him paralysed from the neck down. 

“After becoming a quadriplegic, he became a charismatic leader and activist in the quest to find a cure for spinal cord injuries, as well as a passionate advocate for disability rights and care.

“All while continuing his career in cinema in front of and behind the camera and dedicating himself to his beloved family…

“The film is a moving and vivid cinematic telling of Reeve’s remarkable story.”

A new law has been passed on controversial use of AI to ‘bring back’ dead actors after the Reeve’s family’s outrage.

It is claimed DC exes did not seek approval from the late Superman star’s family to use his likeness in 2023’s The Flash. 

At present, studios do not need to confirm consent from estates to use AI to replicate the likeness of performers.

While permission is often sought, the new bill would make this a requirement.

The movie actors’ union, the Screen Actors Guild, said: “This is another win in our ongoing strategy of enhancing performer protections in a world of generative AI.”

Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story will be released in UK cinemas from November 1.
