After three superbly savage seasons, "The Boys" has graduated to the spinoffs stage, first with the animated shorts "Diabolical" and now "Gen V," a supes-in-college series that's every bit as nasty -- in mostly good ways -- as the flagship series. Cleverly drafting off the anchor show, this coming-of-age superhero satire in some ways feels like what "The New Mutants" should have been.

A woman who made headlines after ‘marrying’ a ghost has revealed her former lover is stalking her – after they famously ‘divorced’ earlier this year. Brocarde, a singer and songwriter from Oxfordshire, fell in love with Edwardo – the ghost of a Victorian soldier – in late 2021 after he appeared in her home. But after a rocky marriage marred with cheating allegations and him often ‘ghosting’ her for days on end, Brocarde called it quits this summer, having an exorcism to rid herself of the spirit. She enjoyed a few “blissful” months without Edwardo before becoming suspicious that the ghoul had re-entered her life – allegedly disguising himself as other identities. While the singer has been attempting to move on with human men, she claims her ex is haunting her. “I thought that I’d started a new ghost-free chapter of my life,” Brocarde told NeedToKnow.co.uk. “It wasn’t until I started to think about moving on that disturbing and creepy things started to happen. “I embarked on a post-divorce trip to Paris to find myself and I ended up finding ‘Fabienne’, or so he called himself. “I was walking down the banks of the river Seine chasing the shadow of the Eiffel Tower, cowing under my umbrella as raindrops poured off it, and then it struck me, glistening in a puddle – the reflection of a French man. “I tilted my umbrella back but nobody was around, I looked back towards the puddle the man was clear as the ocean.” Brocarde claims the ghost appeared to be a chef who introduced himself as Fabienne and then followed her home. She said: “A holiday romance with a Parisienne ghost [was] surely too good to be true. “He later revealed himself as Edwardo – it was a honey trap all along. “I couldn’t believe I’d been catfished by a ghost.” Since then, she says Edwardo has continued to harass her under the guise of being different spirits. She added: “After the French encounter Edwardo ghosted me again. “I cautiously started to go on dates with living humans. “I returned home from a date with a bunch of flowers, and Edwardo thought it would be amusing to pull the heads off all of the roses and scatter the petals on my bed. “He’s even learnt to play Careless Whisper on the saxophone – I mean, at least I think it’s him, the sound echoes in the distance sometimes when I’m taking a bath in candlelight. “He’s getting really jealous of the fact that I want to date a modern man. “He knows I no longer find his uniform attractive so he’s going to extreme lengths to pull me in, he’s even given himself a modern make-over and presented himself as a Ken doll," she continued. "I thought I was going crazy when the image of him with cropped blond hair and a pink suit appeared, I could tell it was him though as his gaunt harrowed eyes locked into mine and slowly he merged back into a rugged Victorian soldier.” While Brocarde is eager to move on with a living man, she said she has been told she has a “special gift” that helps her connect with the dead. And while she is open-minded when it comes to the spirit realm, she has been left horrified by Edwardo’s antics. The singer added: “It’s terrifying, that’s why I wanted him exorcised. “A medium told me Edwardo would always be with me and that’s a thought that I can’t come to terms with. “I feel now I’m not consenting of Edwardo’s presence and I’m having trouble getting him to disconnect from me.” For now, she’s focusing on her work as a singer-songwriter, and has released a post-divorce tune ‘Just Another Anthem’. Brocarde added: “I feel now it’s the time for me to focus on my singing and songwriting – Edwardo has provided me with a ton of inspiration, so that’s something to thank him for. “Moving forward I feel like I need a bit of flesh on my bones. “Skeletons and dead men may seem hot but in reality, they are stone cold, unpredictable and scary.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Lari Sumpani recently hit the headlines after winning the Miss BumBum 2023 contest and now aims to challenge how people view women who share saucy snaps online. In addition to tackling stigma around adult industry workers, the 24-year-old has also shared five reasons why she believes her profession would actually make her a “great wife”. "I really want to get married, but because of my work, I have difficulty finding men who want to commit to women like me,” Lari, who is from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and has 330,000 followers on Instagram, (@eusumpani ), told Nude PR. "They are insecure.” 'We keep things spicy' First on her list of great partner qualities? Keeping things interesting. Lari said: “A woman like me will always propose new things to spice up the relationship.” 'Travel the world together' The model travels across the globe for her job and says a partner would benefit from this – since they could join in on these adventures. She said: “As OnlyFans models travel very frequently for recordings, [our partner could come along]. “I have already travelled for work to countries such as Belgium and France.” 'It's all about honesty' Lari believes that adult models are more honest open partners – because they already share who they are so much with fans online. In short, there’s nothing to hide. She said: “We will always be sincere.” 'Sex, sex, sex' The model has previously revealed that she has sex for three hours a few times weekly, which keeps her fit and “men love it”. So it perhaps comes as no surprise that “sex time” falls in fourth place on the list of why she’d make a great wife. She said: “It is one of the most special points. “Sex is a super important reason, because there will definitely be innovation with toys, costumes and different positions.” 'Money isn't a problem' Lari, who rakes in the cash from her saucy career and modelling, says finances will “never be a problem”. She said: “Adult content producers who keep their finances organised have money in their pockets. “The medium is profitable and this means that money will never be a problem for the couple.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
