Kelsey Parker claims late husband Tom use kitchen clock to show he’s watching over his family

Kelsey Parker believes her late husband Tom Parker is connecting with her and their children through their kitchen clock. The 36-year-old made the remark as she opened up about how she is coping with his death four years after the Wanted singer passed away from brain cancer at the age of 33 – and after her recent pregnancy with partner Will Lindsay. Kelsey, who had daughter Aurelia, four, and son Bodhi, three, with Tom, said on the No Parental Guidance podcast: “Tom connects to us through our clock in the kitchen. The clock just starts spinning. People will be like, ‘It’s just the batteries’. “But you don’t understand. “We were reading Aurelia’s school report and the clock started spinning. It’s like here’s there saying, ‘I’m with you, I’m here’. I can just feel Tom with me, anyway. “What really got me was we said that Will’s here looking after Tom’s kids and Tom’s there looking after Will’s child.” Kelsey also spoke about a visit to a medium, which she said brought her comfort following the …

Trey Parker Admits It’s Scarier to Do ‘South Park’ in the Trump Era

Trey Parker Admits It’s Scarier to Do ‘South Park’ in the Trump Era

While television stars and creators are busy campaigning ahead of the approaching Emmy voting window, the TV Academy spent an evening handing out awards to some special programs on Wednesday. This year’s Television Academy Honors ceremony recognized seven projects that have harnessed the power of TV to create positive change around the world, with Adolescence, Deaf President Now!, Dying for Sex, Heated Rivalry, Seen & Heard: The History of Black Television and South Park all being recognized. South Park co-creator Trey Parker made a rare Hollywood appearance to accept the award, teasing “after doing the show for 30 years, I just wanted to say to the Television Academy, like, what took you so fucking long?” He went on to explain how he’s often told that he and partner Matt Stone are fearless for these days devoting so much of their animated comedy to mocking Donald Trump, which has created a ratings bonanza and reinvigorated the show while also angering the White House. Parker shouted out his writing staff for being brave alongside them, “especially this year when …

The Ballad of Falling Dragons by Sarah A. Parker

The Ballad of Falling Dragons by Sarah A. Parker

The Ballad of Falling Dragons by Sarah A. Parker picks up after the bruised, bone-deep ending of When the Moon Hatched and pushes the story into territory that feels both bigger and rawer. Raeve still wears Rekk’s blood on her hands. Kaan still carries a crown that fits like a yoke. And the silver moons, drifting through skies stitched with aurora ribbons, are starting to wobble. Where the story stands when book two opens Book one, When the Moon Hatched, hatched a heroine out of a fallen moon and dropped her into a world of dragon clans, elemental Creators, blood-runes, and political rot. The Ballad of Falling Dragons by Sarah A. Parker doesn’t hand-hold returning readers, which I respected, though it makes this an absolutely terrible standalone entry point. If you’re new, start at book one or you’ll drown in glossary terms by chapter three. This second outing keeps the dual identity thread alive (Raeve, and the woman she used to be), expands the cast in every direction, and sets the table for what the …

Sarah Jessica Parker shops… at Primark? Inside the new Manhattan flagship that has Americans obsessed

Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more On Friday, something surreal unfolded on New York’s West 34th Street. The Empire State Building glowed cerulean blue, while a Hollywood-style carpet unfurled along the sidewalk. Then came Sarah Jessica Parker, flanked by a motley crew of A-listers — including Andy Cohen, Emily Ratajkowski and Winnie Harlow — all smizing for paparazzi to commemorate the opening of… wait for it…. A Primark. Yes, Primark, the Irish fast-fashion chain best known for bargains like “three thongs for £10” ($13.50).” The spectacle has already become the subject of online bemusement, particularly among Brits (myself included), who are struggling to reconcile the retailer’s mass-market reputation with the full celebrity fanfare of a Manhattan flagship launch. In the U.K., Primark occupies such an unserious place in the cultural …

Fintech startup Parker files for bankruptcy

Fintech startup Parker files for bankruptcy

Parker, a well-funded startup offering corporate credit cards and banking services for e-commerce businesses, has filed for bankruptcy and is widely reported to have shut down. The startup was part of Y Combinator’s winter 2019 cohort, and its Series A was led by Valar Ventures.  Parker came out of stealth in 2023, touting a corporate credit that it said was designed for use by e-commerce companies. At the time, co-founder and CEO Yacine Sibous said the startup’s “secret sauce” was an underwriting process that could properly assess e-commerce cash flows.  “We imagined building better financial products for e-commerce founders with the mission of increasing the number of financially independent people,” Sibous told TechCrunch. Parker’s website is still up and doesn’t mention any shutdown. Instead, a banner at the top boasts that the company has raised more than $200 million in total funding, including a $125 million lending arrangement. However, multiple social media posts state that Parker’s credit card partner Patriot Bank sent a message to customers this week confirming the shutdown. Parker’s competitors seemed to …

Queen Camilla comes face-to-face with ex-husband Andrew Parker Bowles at equestrian event

Queen Camilla gracefully greeted her ex-husband Andrew Parker Bowles as the pair suffered an awkward run-in at the Badminton Horse Trials in Gloucestershire ahead of the weekend.  The 78-year-old divorced her former spouse in 1995, after tying the knot with the British Army officer, 86, in 1973 and welcoming two children, Tom, 51, and Laura, 48, with him.  King Charles’s wife is the president of the Ebony Horse Club and was at the horse trials to meet with the club’s members when she encountered her ex-partner.  During her visit, she met volunteers from the club’s riding school in Brixton, south London, which provides riding lessons, workshops and youth support for disadvantaged young people, and is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. Camilla stopped to chat with broadcaster Clare Balding at the event and said she “was so moved” when she first discovered the club “quite a few years ago”. The Queen also spoke with a group of young people from the club, including a teenager who demonstrated a horse simulator. © Getty ImagesQueen Camilla chats …

Queen Camilla Meets with Sarah Jessica Parker During Her Visit to New York City

Queen Camilla Meets with Sarah Jessica Parker During Her Visit to New York City

Queen Camilla and Sarah Jessica Parker. What looked like a scene from Sex and the City or And Just Like That… or perhaps a photo made with AI. And just like that, the British royal, in New York on the third day of her state visit to the United States, actually met the actor at the New York Public Library at an event organized by Her Majesty’s sponsored charity, The Queen’s Reading Room. Queen Camilla is giving her all in these American days. If the goal was to smooth relations between the United States and the United Kingdom, the diplomatic mission of King Charles and consort seems to have succeeded, at least on the level of communication. Upon arrival in Washington, DC, the royal thoughtfully sported a Cartier brooch depicting the flags of the two countries together, while on the second day, she brought out jewelry of extraordinary historical and sentimental value, including an amethyst parure that belonged to Queen Victoria’s mother. For the various appointments on her schedule in New York, Camilla wore a …
