Sophie Turner wants to move back to the UK permanently for her ‘mental health’

Kylian Mbappe set another record as France stretched their 100 per cent start in European Championship qualifying Group B with a 1-0 win over Greece in Paris. Mbappe’s 55th-minute penalty was his 54th goal of the season and took him clear of Just Fontaine to become the top French scorer in a single club and international campaign. But there was an air of fortune about his winner after Odysseas Vlachodimos palmed away his initial penalty only for the referee to spot an infringement and order the kick to be retaken. Kolo Muani and Jules Kounde also had good chances for France while Greece’s task became harder after Konstantinos Mavropanos was sent off for a foul on Muani in the 69th minute. In the same group Ireland took 52 minutes to break through Gibraltar’s defence before goals from Mikey Johnston, Evan Ferguson and Adam Idah secured a 3-0 win in Dublin. In Group C, Ukraine could count themselves lucky to strengthen their hold on second place behind free-scoring England, who brushed aside North Macedonia 7-0. The Ukrainians laboured against bottom side Malta in Trnava, and it took a fortuitous 72nd-minute penalty from Viktor Tsygankov to eke out a 1-0 win. In Group D, Armenia also had a stroke of fortune as it took an injury-time penalty from Tigran Barseghyan to claim a 2-1 win over Latvia and build on the weekend’s stunning win over Wales in Cardiff. There was more misery for the Welsh, who had Joe Morrell sent off and fell to a 2-0 defeat to top-placed Turkey, for whom Umut Nayir and Arda Guler scored second-half goals. Daniel Hakans scored a hat-trick as Group H leaders Finland made it four wins out of five with a comfortable 6-0 win over San Marino. Slovenia and Denmark shared a 1-1 draw in Ljubljana, meaning Kazakhstan jumped into second place courtesy of Abat Aymbetov’s 88th-minute strike that gave them a shock 1-0 win over Northern Ireland in Belfast. Switzerland lost their 100 per cent record in Group I after they were pegged back by two late goals at home to Romania. The Swiss looked set to be coasting to a fourth straight win after two first-half goals from Mohamed Amdouni. But Romania hit back, reducing the deficit through Valentin Mihaila in the 89th minute before the same player struck again to snatch a point two minutes into injury time. Israel retained their push for a qualifying place after a hard-fought 2-1 win over Andorra while Belarus earned their first points of the campaign with a 2-1 win over Kosovo.

Emma Watson fans have been left confused by her latest fashion statement. The actor, 33, who is best known for starring as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter film adaptations, shared a photo to Instagram on Monday (19 June), in which she posed with her brother Alex Watson. The pair wore matching powder blue outfits, but it was the Little Women star’s dress that caught fans’ attention. Followers were puzzled over whether the dress was “floating” or “hanging” from her ears. The dress, taken from Spanish luxury fashion house Loewe’s Spring Summer 2023 collection, is in fact structured with wiring to create a pointed 3D illusion on the bodice, with the rest of the fabric draped across the legs, giving the appearance of magically levitating. “What in the wingardium leviosa is that dress,” wrote one fan in the comments, referring to the Harry Potter spell used to make objects levitate. Another added: “This dress is defying physics”. One fan pleaded for others to explain the dress’s design, commenting: “Someone make the dress make sense pls.” “The dress looks like it’s floating. I’m trying to understand,” remarked another. “How is that dress on your body? Hanging from your ears?” Someone else, alluding to Harry Potter, wrote: “This is the most hogwarty dress ever!” Loewe is known for pushing the boundaries of “proportion play” – using structural illusions to create unique silhouettes. The brand has been responsible for other major moments in pop cultural fashion this year. The fashion house was behind the custom diamante jumpsuit worn by Beyoncé during her Renaissance World Tour, which sees the placement of two glove-like hands over her breasts and crotch. Loewe also dressed Rihanna in all red for the Super Bowl half-time show back in February, where the artist announced she was expecting her second child with partner and rapper A$AP Rocky. Watson and her brother used the photo opportunity to promote their newly launched business venture, a luxury “carbon neutral” gin brand named Renais Gin, as the pair posed alongside a bottle the alcohol. “With a heart full of warmth and nostalgia, I am thrilled to introduce - Renais Gin @renaisspirits,” Watson wrote on Instagram in April. “It is an ode to the sun-kissed vineyards of Chablis where my family has been making wine these past 30 years. Renais Gin is our love letter to Chablis; a carbon-neutral product, lovingly made from upcycled wine grapes.” In her Instagram bio, Watson describes her job title at the company as “Grand Duchess of Ginspiration”.
