Rod Stewart and David Beckham were among the guests invited to The King’s Foundation Awards.

The stars descended on London on Tuesday evening for The King’s Foundation Awards which is a platform that honours the incredible efforts of students, teachers, alumni and partners who have made a big impact to the Foundation’s mission across various sectors.

King Charles personally met some of the famous faces at the star-studded event at St James’s Palace, including Sir Rod Stewart and David Beckham. At one point, the music legend had Charles and David in stitches as he larked around with a clearly hilarious gag.

Rod, 79, made a gesture with his fingers as the King found the quip absolutely hilarious, as well as David, who could be seen laughing in the background.

Rod was joined by his wife Penny Lancaster at the inspirational event, as she was spotted planting a kiss on Charles’ cheek as they shared a warm embrace with one another.

The songwriter took to the stage, not to perform this time, but instead to hand out the Teaching Award to one deserving individual at the inaugural event. He looked dapper in a cream blazer, white shirt and black tie and appeared to be in great spirits.

Also attending the awards ceremony were actress Sienna Miller, supermodel Naomi Campbell and television star Alan Titchmarsh, who were all smiles as they posed with the King for a special picture, along with other invited guests.

You Won’t Believe How Robert De Niro Reacted When Protesters Insulted His Movies!

Before getting into a big fight with someone who criticized him personally and professionally, Robert De Niro tried to warn them first. But they didn’t listen.

Robert De Niro, known for his roles in movies like “The Godfather,” is also known for speaking out about his political beliefs. Recently, he was challenged by supporters of Donald Trump to argue with them. De Niro didn’t back down, even calling them “gangsters.”

Read on to find out how De Niro responded to a fan who dared to say, “your movies suck!”

Robert De Niro, born in New York and now 80 years old, is considered one of the greatest actors of his time. He’s been in the acting business for more than 60 years and has played many memorable roles. One of his most famous roles was as a young Vito Corleone in “The Godfather Part II” in 1974. He’s been successful in all kinds of movies, like crime, comedy, and drama.

In 1984, the actor from “Goodfellas” was so popular that a girl group called Bananarama made a song about him called “Robert De Niro’s Waiting.” It was a big hit and stayed at the top of the charts for 12 weeks.

At the end of May, Robert De Niro, who supports the Democratic Party, was seen outside a court in Manhattan where Donald Trump’s trial about hush money was happening. De Niro was at an event supporting Joe Biden’s campaign.

De Niro used this opportunity to tell people not to vote for Trump in the upcoming presidential election. He said Trump wants to “ruin not just the city, but the whole country.”

“We’ve forgotten the lessons from history when we didn’t take certain leaders seriously until they turned into cruel dictators,” De Niro said to reporters outside the courthouse. “With Trump, we have a chance to stop him by voting him out.”

He continued, “I’m not trying to scare you. Well, maybe I am. If Trump stays in power, he won’t leave.”

Not everyone agreed with him. De Niro faced angry Trump supporters who criticized him.

Trying to defend himself, the actor from “Raging Bull” says, “You’re not going to scare us. That’s what Trump does, tries to scare people. We have to fight back.”

According to the Associated Press, Trump’s senior campaign adviser, Jason Miller, called the award-winning actor “a washed-up actor.”

“We’re trying to be nice in this world. You’re the ones acting like gangsters!” responds the father of eight.

Amid the loud heckling, another voice yells, “Robert De Niro! You’re just a little troublemaker… you’re not important! Your movies are bad!”

Seconds later, as the actor is led away from the crowd, he shouts, “F**k you.”

Celebrities shouldn’t have to be polite when faced with rude people. We hope De Niro’s response shows that they’re human too!

What do you think about De Niro’s reaction to the hecklers outside the courthouse? Share your thoughts with us and then share this story so others can share their opinions too!

US Women’s Team Says They’ll All Quit If Lia Thomas Gets a Tryout: “We Don’t Need a Ringer”

The 16 members of the US National Women’s Team say they’ll all quit if Lia Thomas, the transgender swimmer who won the NCAA Championship and set 11 world records, gets so much as a tryout.

“None of these women want to spend their locker room time looking at male genitals just for an advantage,” said Coach Joe Barron, “they’d rather win honestly than to have a ringer on the team.”

A ringer is described as someone far overqualified to compete in an event, typically involving sports. “They feel like the world will look down on them if they allow a biological male on their team.”

According to Thomas, there is no advantage and the reports of her dominance are “extremely exaggerated.” Yet there are all those records and medals.

A spokesman for the US Olympic committee responded to our request for comment, noting that they had no idea why the women’s volleyball team, the squad in the article’s feature image, would care if Lia Thomas got a tryout.

“I doubt she’d make it. She’s a swimmer. They don’t play a lot of volleyball.”

This reporter confirmed that in all the years of volleyball and swimming, never has someone trained in the 50-yeard dash won a medal

Meghan Markle hopes to receive an apology from the British Royal Family

According to experts on the British Royal Family, Meghan Markle is reportedly “pushing” for an apology from senior members of the British Royal Family before she agrees to visit England with her husband, Prince Harry. Sources indicate that the Duchess of Sussex has declined an invitation to visit England next month, despite being asked to bring their two children.

Meghan has had strained relationships with several senior royals and has openly discussed these tensions in interviews and the couple’s documentary. Prince Harry, on the other hand, seems intent on reconciling with his family during his upcoming visit to London. However, experts suggest that peace between Harry, Meghan, and the rest of the Royal Family is unlikely unless Meghan receives an apology.

Expert Charlotte Griffiths revealed that while Meghan has been asking for an apology for a long time, the Royal Family appears unwilling to offer one. Griffiths noted, “Meghan has been asking for an apology for a long time. However, I don’t think she will stop Harry from seeing his family. Harry went to visit his dad when he heard he was sick and we know that he will return in May.”

Expert Tom Quinn added that Prince Harry desires reconciliation but also respects his wife’s feelings. He is caught in the middle, needing both sides to show humility and move past their grievances. Quinn mentioned, “There has been a change since Kate Middleton got sick. Harry and Meghan also feel they should reconcile but Meghan’s grievances are still preventing this from happening. At Kensington Palace, there is hope that Kate’s illness can bring the warring relatives closer together.”

Harry is expected to leave California to return to England on May 8 to attend the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. However, it remains unclear whether Meghan will accompany him on this trip.

The pre-taped messaged aired during Thursday night’s show.

“Eight thousand episodes went by like that.”

The pair began hosting America’s Game together in 1982, when the show first aired in syndication.

They have become one of television’s most iconic duos.

“As the years have gone by, we’ve grown up on television, but we’ve also shared so much more behind the scenes,” she said as she reminisced about the pair’s more personal memories.

“What an incredible and unforgettable journey we’ve had. And I’ve enjoyed every minute of it with you,” White added, holding back tears. “You’re like a brother to me, and I consider you a true lifelong friend, who I will always adore. I love you, Pat.”

After the segment ended, the two shared a hug on the stage.

You can watch Vanna White’s entire message to Pat Sajak, 77, in the video below.

Although Sajak will be retiring from Wheel of Fortune, White will continue her job through at least the 2025-2026 season.

I will certainly miss Pat Sajak as the host, but I can’t wait to see what Ryan Seacrest brings to the show!

Please share if you’re going to miss Pat!

Jennifer Garner packs on the PDA with longtime beau John Miller in rare loved-up sighting

Jennifer Garner looked comfortable as she packed on the PDA with her longtime beau Thursday in Los Angeles.

The actress, 51, who says she has a ‘healthy relationship’ with her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, 50, kept it casual wearing a white tank top and a navy blue pair of leggings as she gave boyfriend John Miller a farewell kiss.

The newly minted Party Down star appeared to be makeup free and styled her chestnut brown hair in a loose bun atop her head.

John, about 45, looked equally relaxed in a dark T-shirt and jeans.

The businessman brushed his dark hair forward and his beard was closely cropped.

Both seemed to be enjoying an afternoon cup of coffee, although Jennifer’s was in a ceramic cup and John’s was in a cardboard cup for the road.

The couple have been dating since 2018, but are rarely seen in public together, preferring to keep their private life to themselves.

The Alias star does not share photos of her three kids, Violet, 17, Seraphina, 14 and Sam, 11 on social media.

John is a divorced dad of two, Violet and Quest, whom he shares with ex-wife, violinist Caroline Campbell.

‘I understand what it is to be the grown-up in the room and the weight of that, that I just have to keep showing up,’ the Emmy nominee said in a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times about her how she won her role in the Apple+ series, The Last Thing He Told Me.

In the show, Jennifer’s character Hannah, tries to bond with and protect her angry step-daughter after her husband mysteriously disappears.

The matter-of-fact actress admitted she wasn’t the first person considered for the part.

‘I’d taken myself out of the game a bit — I needed to be at home and fully available,’ she admitted.

She and Ben divorced in 2018, three years after going their separate ways.

The Air star married his former fiancée, Jennifer Lopez, 53, last summer.

The West Virginia raised star said she drew inspiration from three time Oscar winner Meryl Streep when preparing for her role as a woodturner.

‘This is so goofy, but the truth,’ she explained.

‘When “Bridges of Madison County came out, I remember reading that Meryl Streep ironed sheets for months just to get the feel in her body of this woman at the center of the story.’

‘If Meryl does it, there’s got to be something to it. And there’s truth to that. It really helped me tap into Hannah’s stillness and her ability to focus and let go.’

How Ben Affleck Has Been Supporting Ex Jennifer Garner After Her Dad’s Death

A source tells ET how Ben Affleck has been supporting his ex-wife since her father’s death and his future plans with Jennifer Lopez.

Ben Affleck is doing all he can to be supportive of his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, as she mourns the death of her father.

A source tells ET that the 51-year-old actor and director has been “actively involved” with his 52-year-old former spouse as she grieves and “is supportive across the board.”

“He has been checking in on her and making sure she knows he is there for her since her dad’s passing. It was the kids’ grandfather and Ben and him always got along,” the source adds. “He considered him family and always will.”

Garner shared the news that her father, William Garner, “passed peacefully” at the age of 85 last month.

“We were with him, singing Amazing Grace as he left us (did we carry him across or scare him away— valid question),” she shared on Instagram, alongside a collage of family photos. “While there is no tragedy in the death of an 85 year old man who lived a healthy, wonderful life, I know grief is unavoidable, waiting around unexpected corners.”

However, Garner wrote, “Today is for gratitude.”

“We are grateful for Dad’s gentle demeanor and quiet strength,” she wrote. “For how he teased with a mischievous smile, and for the way he invented the role of all in, ever patient girl dad. We are grateful for his work ethic, leadership and faith.”

The source also tells ET that “beyond dealing with this loss,” Garner has been “in a happy place” as she and Affleck continue co-parenting their children, Violet, 17, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 11.

“Jennifer is in a very happy place and gets along with Ben and Jen[nifer Lopez]. Jennifer and Jen have gotten closer, which is nice for both of them. Jennifer Garner and John Miller are doing well and they have talked about escalating their relationship to the next level,” the source adds of Garner and Affleck’s respective partners.

The actress has been quietly dating John Miller since 2018 while Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, 54, rekindled their romance in 2021 and got married in Las Vegas on July 16 — three months following their engagement.

“Jen and Ben are doing well and are very happy together. Their kids bring them even closer together and keep them humble,” the source shares of Affleck and his superstar wife. “Jen and Ben are supportive of one another and just want the best for their relationship and family. Their kids love being a blended family and mesh well together. They’re all kind and get along well.”

Lopez shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with her ex-husband, Marc Anthony, whom she was married to from 2004-2014.

Most recently, the couple has made headlines after having their relationship highlighted in Lopez’s documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told. In the doc, Lopez and Affleck recount their devastating breakup and reflect on their love today.

The appearance of love in her life inspired Lopez to pen her new album, This Is Me… Now, and prompted her to create a musical experience of the same name too.

While the public’s response to Lopez’s recent releases have been polarizing, the source tells ET that the singer hasn’t been giving “outside hate” much attention. “She has always had to deal with criticism and knows that she is misunderstood by some. She realizes that will always be the case because she’s an artist and there are people who don’t get her or know her,” the source shares.

The source adds: “Ben is 100 percent supportive of Jen and keeps it real with her. They both know this is part of the business and remind each other that you can’t please everyone. They acknowledge what really matters, lift each other up, and encourage each other’s talents and capabilities.”

As for the couple’s future, the source shares that Lopez and Affleck are looking into new housing. “Jen and Ben would love to get a place in New York and are open to buying. It just depends because it has to be perfect and something they really want to invest in. Jen is a New York girl at heart and loves being back close to where she was raised,” the source says.
