Unlock the Secret to Youth: How Dolphin Nutrients Could Revolutionize Anti-Aging

0

Not every hero dons a cape—some have flippers instead.

This became evident when researchers at the U.S. Navy’s Marine Mammal Program began studying dolphins. They discovered that the dolphins with the best health and longest lifespans had elevated levels of a crucial nutrient called C15:0.

C15:0, or pentadecanoic acid, is an uncommon saturated fatty acid that functions similarly to omega-3s, offering potential advantages for metabolic health, cognition, liver function, immune response, and red blood cell well-being.

As we age, C15:0 levels naturally diminish, but it can still be acquired through diet or supplements. A study conducted in 2023 found that individuals with higher C15:0 levels in their bloodstream had a reduced risk of conditions associated with aging.

This remarkable dolphin finding, along with extensive scientific investigation, led to the development of the highly popular Fatty15 capsules. Now, ten years later, this daily supplement is supported by more than 100 peer-reviewed studies and over 60 patents.

According to the brand, it has over 100,000 active subscribers. The $119 capsules contain 100 milligrams of pure C15:0, and users report a range of benefits, with some even claiming it helped turn back their biological clocks.

One person who took Fatty15 daily for six months believes her lab results confirmed it was working.

“My six-month bloodwork results were nothing short of amazing improvements. My biological age went from being one year older than my actual age to eight years younger than my actual age!” she shared in the reviews section, adding that she will be continuing with the supplement.

She’s not alone in reporting impressive results. Others say Fatty15 has improved their joint pain, energy levels, sleep quality and even made their hair, skin and nails look healthier. In a survey of 6,243 customers, 70% reported feeling or seeing benefits within 16 weeks of taking the supplement.

Longevity experts have also backed the science behind the supplement’s varied benefits.

“One of my favorite longevity-boosting supplements… Fatty15 acts as an armor for your cells, strengthening cell membranes, repairing mitochondria, and reversing the hallmarks of aging…” explained Dr. Mark Hyman, Functional Medicine Physician and NYT Best Selling Author.

Each batch of the supplement is third-party tested for quality and purity, and claims are backed by Competent & Reliable Scientific Evidence (CARSE). Currently, users can save 20% when they choose the 90-day subscription plan.

Olivia Wilde Stuns at 42: Unveiling Her Dramatic Transformation That Has Fans Buzzing

0

Olivia Wilde’s recent appearance at the San Francisco International Film Festival has become a hot topic online, as a video capturing her changing facial expressions quickly went viral.

The 42-year-old director and actress attended the festival to promote her latest movie, “The Invite,” and paused on the red carpet to engage with the media.

In one particular clip from the event, Olivia appeared noticeably wide-eyed and gaunt, which raised concerns among her fans who pondered the reasons behind her altered look.

The footage, captured by SFGate and now exceeding 10 million views, prompted viewers to express their worries about her transformation.

Fans took to social media, commenting, “A new video of Olivia Wilde is gaining traction, and people can’t look away. Everyone’s focusing on her face and eyes, trying to decipher what’s different.”

‘New photos of Olivia Wilde are roughly eight years or so apart. Someone explain to me how this is possible? What causes this?’

‘First, Angelina Jolie showed up looking like the ghost of her former self, and now Olivia Wilde looks like she has been overdoing the GLP-1s. What is happening to these actresses?’

‘What the hell is going on in Hollywood at the moment?’

However, others suggested the reason behind the distorted look was actually down to the camera angle that the video had been shot in.

One person online explained: ‘Olivia Wilde aged dramatically across 8 years of celebrity photos. The replies are full of speculation about cosmetic procedures, lifestyle factors, and stress. 

‘Coinstronauts caught the actual answer that nobody wants. Camera physics. 

‘Wide-angle phone lenses held close to the face produce facial distortion. Eyes appear larger. Forehead expands. Jaw narrows. Skin texture amplifies. Overhead event lighting produces harsh shadows. Eye sockets deepen. Skin appears shinier. Subtle wrinkles get amplified into prominent features. 

‘Front-camera video compression with frame grabs at mid-expression captures expressions audiences would never notice in motion. 

‘The frozen frame looks unflattering even when the person looks normal in person. The “aged” comparison photos almost always combine professional studio photography from 8 years ago with phone-camera frame grabs from recent events. That’s not aging. That’s photography difference. 

‘That works for some celebrities. Doesn’t work for those whose careers require maximum visibility. Olivia Wilde’s career depends on visibility. So she gets exposed to phone-camera frame grabs. The comparison content follows. 

‘For audience members consuming this content. The implication is to verify the comparison terms before forming impressions. Same lighting. Same camera type. Same expression timing. Without those controls, the comparison is photography rather than ageing. Most audiences won’t bother. The unfair comparisons keep spreading.’

Is this a real change – or just camera trickery?

At the event, Olivia looked chic in a simple tailored white T-shirt, with her hair tied back with a bow.

The Invite, which Olivia directed and stars in alongside Seth Rogen, Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton, tells the story of a dinner party gone wrong.

It was co-written by Rashida Jones and is slated for release on June 26.

Earlier this month, social media users accused Olivia of being on Ozempic after an appearance at the Fashion Trust US Awards in Los Angeles.

But the actress is known for her commitment to fitness and is often spotted hitting the gym in Los Angeles.

She stays away from processed foods and loves attending classes at the Tracy Anderson Method Studio in Studio City.

While training for her role in 2010’s Tron: Legacy, Olivia did cardio five days a week, strength training three days a week, and mixed martial arts classes as regularly as possible.

It comes as the filmmaker’s ex-boyfriend Harry Styles, 32, got engaged to actress Zoe Kravitz, 37. 

Olivia and Harry dated for nearly two years before breaking up in November 2022.

Decades-Old Child Abduction Case Cracked: Overseas Arrest Made Through Revolutionary DNA Breakthrough

0

A significant breakthrough has been made in a decades-old cold case as a man living abroad was arrested, linked by DNA evidence to the 1989 abduction and sexual assault of a young girl in Florida.

Authorities in the Philippines detained 69-year-old Young Tom Talmadge at his residence in Cavite on April 23. This arrest followed information shared by U.S. Homeland Security Investigations, according to a statement from the Philippine Bureau of Immigration.

This arrest comes after officials in Hillsborough County issued a warrant in March for Talmadge, who is now facing serious charges. These charges include sexual battery of a child under 12, lewd acts on a minor, and kidnapping, all connected to the alleged 1989 kidnapping incident in Tampa, Florida.

Investigators claim that Talmadge encountered a 7-year-old girl at Tampa Lanes bowling alley in 1989, where he allegedly lured her with coins to play arcade games, as reported by FOX 13.

Authorities allege Talmadge was at the bowling alley Tampa Lanes when he approached a 7-year-old girl and offered her coins to play arcade games in 1989, FOX 13 reported

He then allegedly lured the young girl into his car and sexually battered her, authorities said, according to the outlet.

Immediately following the incident, Talmadge allegedly dropped the child off at a second bowling alley nearby and fled the scene. 

The young girl’s disappearance sparked a frantic search by Tampa Lanes employees until a man at the second bowling alley recognized the child and facilitated her return, the outlet reported.

The case ultimately ran cold for nearly 40 years, until investigators with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement used genealogical research and preserved DNA evidence to identify Talmadge as a suspect, authorities said. 

His arrest was a result of the BI’s #ShieldKids campaign, an initiative launched “to protect children from foreign sex offenders,” the agency said.

“We will continue to work closely with international counterparts to protect Filipino children and uphold justice,” Immigration Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado said in a statement. “Foreign fugitives who commit crimes against children will find no refuge here.” 

Following his arrest, Talmadge was transported to the BI Warden Facility in Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig City, where he awaits extradition to the United States.

He faces charges of sexual battery on a victim less than 12 years old by an adult, lewd and lascivious acts on a child, and kidnapping to commit a felony on a child, according to the BI. 

The Hillsborough County State Attorney’s Office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. 

Brayan Bello’s Frustration Peaks as Red Sox Interim Manager Makes Unexpected Move

0

Chad Tracy, the interim manager for the Boston Red Sox, is off to a rocky start in his new role, as he struggles to build rapport with his players. Stepping into the shoes of Alex Cora, Tracy has already found himself at odds with the team, particularly with pitcher Brayan Bello.

In a game against the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday, Tracy made a controversial call by removing Bello from the mound after only 62 pitches. This decision came in the fourth inning of Boston’s 8-1 defeat, much to the visible displeasure of Bello, who shook his head in frustration when Tracy approached the mound to make the change.

The situation escalated when Tracy made the choice to pull Bello after the pitcher walked the ninth batter, putting a runner on first with two outs in a tight 3-1 game. Reliever Greg Weissert was brought in and promptly gave up a two-run homer to Ernie Clement on just his third pitch, exacerbating the situation.

“Obviously, I was upset,” Bello said through translator Carlos Villoria Benítez, per masslive.com. “I haven’t been able to pitch well in the past few starts. I haven’t been able to pitch deep into the games. That’s what I want. And today, it went that way as well. So, obviously, I was upset to come out of the game.”

Bello probably has some reason to be frustrated by the decision by his new manager, although the starting pitcher hasn’t done a whole lot to earn confidence from Tracy or Cora before him.

Bello has a terrible 9.12 ERA in 25 2/3 innings spanning six starts, and is among the worst pitchers in the sport entering May.

Pitching coach Andrew Bailey, who provided his input, defended the decision to pull Bello.

“I think wanting to keep the game there at 3-1 with a fully fresh bullpen was the way to go there,” Bailey said via Mass Live. “And knowing that we had a lot of well-rested relievers. We have a lot of faith in Bello, but we’ve got to win that game and thought that that was the best position — Trace and I were talking about it — set the team up for success. We thought was the best move possible.”

Boston is in free fall right now after losing ace Garrett Crochet, as he hit the injured list with shoulder inflammation.

After Cora’s firing, multiple players expressed disappointment with the decision, noting that the front office, including John Henry, did not meet with the players face-to-face about it.

With Tracy now leading the ship, they will have to rebound soon or things could get ugly.

The last-place Red Sox (12-19) will look to get things on track Friday when they open their series against the Astros in Boston.

King Charles Highlights the Unique Bond Between UK and US in Historic Congress Address

0

On April 29, 2026, King Charles underscored the enduring “special” relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States.

During his four-day visit to the U.S., the 77-year-old King addressed Congress, a gesture seen as pivotal for mending ties between the two nations amid recent strains linked to the conflict in Iran.

Addressing Congress, King Charles remarked, “The narrative of the United Kingdom and the United States is fundamentally one of reconciliation, renewal, and extraordinary partnership. Despite the deep divisions of 250 years ago, we have cultivated a friendship that has evolved into one of the most significant alliances in human history.”

In his 28-minute speech, the King commemorated the 250th anniversary of America’s independence from British rule and highlighted the shared democratic ideals that bond the two countries.

The King marked the 250th anniversary of America’s independence from British rule in the 28-minute address, and drew parallels between the two nations’ shared democratic values.

He said: “When we have found that way to agree, what great change is brought about — not just for the benefit of our peoples, but of all peoples. This, I believe, is the special ingredient in our relationship.”

Charles also referenced the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner over the weekend, saying acts of violence would never succeed.

He said: “Let me say with unshakeable resolve: such acts of violence will never succeed.”

The King touched on the current state of the world, too, noting that the two nations meet in challenging times.

He said: “We meet in times of great uncertainty; in times of conflict from Europe to the Middle East which pose immense challenges for the international community.”

Charles’ visit to the US was initially in flux following the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

The monarch and Queen Camilla, his wife, ultimately travelled to Washington, D.C., but their plans were thrown into doubt in the immediate aftermath of the shooting.

A spokesperson told People on Sunday (26.04.26): “His Majesty is being kept fully informed of developments and is greatly relieved to hear that the President, First Lady and all guests have been unharmed.

“A number of discussions will be taking place throughout the day to discuss with U.S. colleagues and our respective teams to what degree the events of Saturday evening may or may not impact on the operational planning for the visit.”

Walmart Ditches Self-Checkout: A Return to Traditional Shopping Lanes

0

Walmart is phasing out self-checkout stations at more of its supercenters as the retail giant re-evaluates its approach to automation.

Recently, the world’s largest retailer removed these machines from its South Philadelphia location, opting to reinstate traditional cashier lanes instead.

This move follows the lead of other stores, such as a Walmart in Missouri, which eliminated self-checkout options after they were linked to 509 police calls within just five months.

Throughout 2024, Walmart has reintroduced staff-operated checkout lanes to stores in Shrewsbury, Missouri, and Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to enhance the efficiency of the customer checkout experience.

According to company executives, the decision to revert to staffed lanes is driven by service considerations. “These changes are informed by input from associates and customers, local shopping trends, and the specific needs of each community,” the company stated.

The change was aimed to ‘improve the checkout experience and enable associates to provide more personalized customer service.’

Encouraging customers to scan and pay for their own items was presented as a way to reduce lines and improve efficiency, but also doubled as a way for retailers to cut down on labor costs. 

In reality, these kiosks are especially vulnerable to theft – an issue that retailers claim has been plaguing businesses and forcing them to shut locations altogether. Experts say the rise in shoplifting from people using self-checkouts is really why they are being axed.

Lending Tree found that more than a quarter of people who use self-checkout have intentionally taken an item without paying

Lending Tree found that more than a quarter of people who use self-checkout have intentionally taken an item without paying

Lending Tree found that 69 percent of people who use self-checkout believe they make it easier to steal. A whopping 27 percent of people surveyed purposefully stole an item without scanning.

‘Walmart isn’t just removing self check out,’ financial expert Ted Jenkins told the Daily Mail. He argued that the retailer is ‘quietly admitting’ that when theft leads to major financial loss, there are repercussions.

‘Walmart regularly reviews stores based on theft and customer experience and takes self checkout out of their highest theft stores,’ retail expert Bryan Gildenberg told the Daily Mail. ‘I would not read much more into it than that.’

Retail expert Neil Saunders told the Daily Mail that self-checkouts have led to high theft rates because of both deliberate actions and ‘accidental mistakes.’ 

For example, a person may forget to scan one of their items or accidentally scan a product twice. 

‘Forcing more customers to use manned checkouts resolves a lot of these issues and saves retailers money,’ Saunders said.

Walmart told the Daily Mail its changes are guided by feedback from associates and customers, local shopping patterns and the needs of the business in each community. 

‘We updated the front end at our South Philadelphia Supercenter to improve the checkout experience and enable associates to provide more personalized customer service,’ they said.

Should supermarkets ditch self-checkout machines?

Other retail stores are switching from self checkout to traditional cash registers, including Dollar General

Other major retailers are feeling similar repercussions, including Dollar General, who decided to remove self-checkouts from 12,000 stores nationwide in 2024. Only a handful of the self-serve kiosks remain.

Last year, Sam’s Club, a division of Walmart, announced it would remove all self-checkout machines and roll out AI-powered ‘Scan & Go’ technology to reduce checkout wait times.

‘This is one of the fastest, most scalable transformations happening in retail today,’ Sam’s Club President and CEO Chris Nicholas said. 

‘We’re investing with intention – in our fleet, our associates and the member experience – to become the world’s best club retailer.’ 

Meanwhile, Costco, one of Sam’s Club’s biggest rivals, began rolling out the same technology but is not planning on axing self-checkout from all locations.

Massive Teen Gathering Sparks Chaos at Popular Tourist Spot, Injuring Officers in Shocking Video

0

A throng of over 1,000 teenagers descended upon a popular Florida tourist spot over the weekend, sparking what has become the latest viral “teen takeover” event. This incident led to nearly a dozen arrests and caused injuries to two police officers who were hospitalized as a result.

The disturbance erupted on Saturday evening around 7 p.m. when the boisterous crowd of young people converged on ICON Park in Orlando. FOX 35 reported that the situation quickly spiraled into chaos.

Amid the commotion, several altercations broke out among the teens, which resulted in injuries to two deputies from Orange County. The officers were attempting to restore order when they were hurt during the fracas.

Both of the injured officers were taken to a hospital for treatment and have since been released, as confirmed by the authorities.

The incident led to nine individuals being taken into custody on charges, including battery on a law enforcement officer, resisting an officer with violence, resisting an officer without violence and trespassing after receiving a warning, FOX 35 reported.

Chaotic video obtained by FOX 35 shows local authorities ordering the teens to leave the area as police cars lined the roads. Additional footage shows teens running through the streets as onlookers watch from inside a restaurant.

“They said they planned something on TikTok – a ‘TikTok Takeover,’” one individual can be heard saying.

“They posted that s— on YouTube,” another person replied.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office reportedly said the agency was “aware” of an event being planned at the entertainment complex and assigned several deputies to the location in preparation for the group’s arrival. 

In response to the wild takeover, ICON Park has implemented a chaperone policy requiring all minors to be accompanied by an adult while visiting the theme park, FOX 35 reported.

“ICON Park always has the safety of our guests and employees top of mind. We are committed to keeping ICON Park a place where guests of all ages can come and enjoy all we have to offer,” ICON Park said in a statement, according to the outlet.

The mob scene is the latest to make headlines after dozens of social-media-fueled teen “takeovers” have plagued authorities throughout the country, resulting in arrests and disturbing communities.

“We are aware of a growing pattern of large, organized gatherings at entertainment destinations, and we are taking a proactive approach to ensure these environments remain welcoming for everyone,” Commissioner Mike Scott said, FOX 35 reported.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Department and ICON Park did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. 

DOJ Task Force Reveals Biden Administration’s Intense Investigation of Traditional Christian Groups and Clergy

0

WASHINGTON — An investigation by a Department of Justice task force has revealed that the Biden administration fervently pursued legal actions against Christians adhering to traditional biblical beliefs. This included imposing penalties and conducting assertive prosecutions, often overlooking their conscientious objections, and even clandestinely monitoring Catholic clergy.

The Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias, spearheaded by the DOJ, published 14 key findings on Thursday. The report highlighted that officials under the 46th president compelled Christians with conventional biblical views to make difficult choices between practicing their faith and potentially breaching federal laws.

In an extensive 200-page analysis, the task force noted: “While the Biden Administration generally accepted privately held religious beliefs, it actively sought to restrict the public expression of faith by Christians.” This approach included handing down harsher sentences to pro-life Christians compared to their pro-choice counterparts for breaching a federal statute that safeguards access to abortion facilities and pregnancy resource centers.

The report also disclosed new insights regarding a January 2023 FBI memorandum circulated to various field offices. This memo advocated for the surveillance of “radical-traditionalist” Catholics, based on unfounded claims from the left-leaning Southern Poverty Law Center.

The report also unearthed new details about a January 2023 FBI memo sent to multiple field offices that called for the targeting of “radical-traditionalist” Catholics as a result of “baseless allegations” from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center.

The FBI’s Richmond, Va. Field Office, which first compiled the memo, later probed a “priest and an entire Catholic sect” as a result of learning that a “career criminal” — who was stocking up on weapons and explosive materials — regularly attended a certain church in the commonwealth’s capital.

Agents who interviewed the repeat offender, Xavier Louis Lopez, noted that he was a self-described “radical traditional Catholic Clerical Fascist” — and, as a result of his professed beliefs, began tracking the priest of his onetime parish, as well as the cleric’s family.

“Lopez had attended Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) Chapel for approximately seven months and participated in three or four catechism classes as part of the process to become baptized,” a Jan. 5, 2023, email from an unnamed FBI employee stated.

“FBI Richmond attempted to interview the priest … who was not cooperative. Additionally, he has been to see Lopez six times in jail,” the email also read. “According to [redacted] he frequently flies back to Kentucky. It appears that his uncle is key people [sic] in the SSPX-MC organization.”

“We would be very interested in any information that you have on the organization, the [sic] set up a conference call tomorrow or a day next week that works for you to discuss further,” the FBI employee added.

The Society of Saint Pius X is a traditionalist Catholic organization that rejects many of the reforms imposed on the church following the Second Vatican Council in the mid-1960s. The group is best known for its support of the Traditional Latin Mass.

In February 2025, a judge sentenced Lopez to eight years and one month in prison for possessing destructive devices. While his arrested was unquestionably “lawful,” the Trump administration task force faulted the Biden-era FBI for using Lopez’s statement — as well as the SPLC-inspired memo — “as justification to launch a two-pronged attack against traditional Catholics.”

“The Richmond Field Office opened a law enforcement profile, known as a Guardian profile, on Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Society SSPX Chapel, a church that played no role whatsoever in Lopez’s acquisition or possession of the destructive devices,” the task force report noted.

“They interviewed Lopez’s priest … who was uncomfortable and noted that he would need to speak with the church’s attorneys before providing any additional information about his congregant,” it also stated.

Although the priest’s response “was reasonable, the Richmond Field Office viewed it as suspicious and used their suspicion as cover for conducting a broader evaluation” of the priest and other traditional Catholics.

After the Richmond memo drew backlash — and public apologies from then-FBI Director Christopher Wray and then-Attorney General Merrick Garland — senior FBI employees privately stood by the policy of targeting “radical-traditionalist” Christians.

Stanley Meador, then the special agent in charge of the Richmond field office, told a colleague who authored the now-recalled FBI memo: “No apology needed.”

“Keep that head up, this too shall pass. Will make for a great chapter in your memoirs some day!” he wrote in a July 8, 2023, email.

Wray told members of the House Judiciary Committee in a hearing the same month that the memo was “appalling” and “as far as what we can tell, did not result in any investigative action, none.”

The task force report also found that the Biden DOJ and Department of Health and Human Services reversed efforts under the first Trump administration “to vindicate conscience rights” — including for “a Christian nurse” who was “coerced … into participating in an abortion despite her religious objections.”

Additionally, the Biden administration fined Christian universities at exorbitant rates and penalized other religious institutions over issues involving girls’ athletics and vaccine mandates.

“The Biden Administration’s policies regularly clashed with a Christian worldview and burdened traditional religious practices,” the report concluded.

“These conflicts frequently arose over abortion, gender ideology, and sexual orientation. Ultimately, the Biden Administration penalized Christians who lived in accordance with their beliefs.”

“No American should live in fear that the federal government will punish them for their faith,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who chairs the task force, in a statement.

“As our report lays out, the Biden Administration’s actions devastated the lives of many Christian Americans. That devastation ended with President Trump,” he added.

“The Department of Justice will continue to expose bad actors who targeted Christians and work tirelessly to restore religious liberty for all Americans of faith.”

The report followed Trump’s February 2025 executive order on Eradicating Anti-Christian bias in the federal government.

Marion County Firefighters Set to Reverse Pleas in Shocking Hazing Case Unravel


MARION COUNTY, Fla. – In a notable development, three firefighters from Marion County, previously accused of hazing a rookie, are set to alter their pleas in court this Thursday.

Seth Day, Edward Kenny, and Tate Trauthwein, who had earlier maintained their innocence against charges of battery and false imprisonment, will attend a hearing at 10 a.m. Prosecutors are expected to present the specifics of a new plea agreement during the session.

The accusations stem from an incident captured on video last November at Fire Station 21, where a 19-year-old firefighter was reportedly pinned to the ground. Authorities allege that Trauthwein removed the victim’s belt and pants. Further claims include the three firefighters assaulting the victim and restricting his ability to leave the premises.

Investigators disclosed that the victim endured waterboarding, where a towel was placed over his head while water was poured onto him. The ordeal purportedly ended only because the firefighters were called away for an emergency.

Kalyee Bradley, another firefighter, faced charges of robbery for allegedly seizing the victim’s phone, reportedly to access an embarrassing TikTok video. However, these charges against Bradley have since been dismissed.

Six other Marion County Fire Rescue employees also lost their jobs in connection with the incident.

Anouska, who is known to be close pals with Molly-Mae Hague, also shared a tattoo tribute to her baby girl as she had a butterfly inking with Paisley written next to it on her hand. 

Friends and fans of the couple rushed to the comments to send their congratulations.  

Luke and Anouska have been together since at least May 2017 and regularly share holiday photo together. 

The couple live at their luxury £2.8 million Cheshire home with their children and have previously been seen throwing huge birthday parties for their kids at the property. 

Luke missed out on the Manchester United win over Crystal Palace over the weekend due to ‘illness’ which is presumed down to him welcoming his fourth child.  

Head coach Michael Carrick provided an update on his United squad, ahead of Wednesday night’s Premier League clash at Newcastle United.

The team moved into third place with the weekend win over Crystal Palace and are looking to extend an unbeaten run to 12 games.

During a briefing with broadcasters at Carrington, head coach Carrick was asked about the availability of Shaw and Harry Maguire, after they were withdrawn due to feeling ill in the victory over Palace.

‘Yeah, we’re hoping so,’ he replied about their involvement at St James’ Park. ‘We’re working towards it.

‘They weren’t feeling too good. We’ve still got a little bit of time to the game and we will just have to see how they feel. So we’ll obviously give them every chance.

‘No, it wasn’t injury, it’s just both of them weren’t feeling too good. So, yeah, it’s one of those things really. But we’ll just have to see how they are today and tomorrow morning.’

It comes after Luke kick started the year being forced to shrugged off criticism from fans, after sparking a wave of backlash by taking part in viral TikTok trend.

The footballer angered Manchester United supporters after featuring in the ’embarrassing’ video at a lavish New Year’s Eve party.

The clip saw Luke and his wife Anouska join their pals, including influencer Molly-Mae, in miming along to Mugshot Freestyle (The Northern Boys Remix).

But viewers weren’t amused by the England star mouthing the line ‘Your mum’s on benefits’, while he rakes in £150,000 a week at Man United.

The club’s fans took to social media to blast the injured player, while highlighting the Red Devils’ current struggles.

However, Luke’s friends have claimed that he is unbothered by the backlash, having ‘grown a thick skin’ due to his long sporting career.

Speaking to The Sun, one pal explained: ‘Luke Shaw is used to the backlash he gets on a daily basis and has people joking around with him about the fact he gets paid more for being off the pitch than he does on the pitch as he’s always injured.

‘Even though the TikTok video was filmed at a private gathering, it ended up going viral, but Luke didn’t have a problem with it.

‘To him, it was just a bit of light-hearted fun. He’s so used to the abuse he doesn’t let it bother him.’
