To say that Assassin’s Creed Shadows is Ubisoft’s do or die moment would be a bit of an understatement. After all, the company has been subject to numerous controversies as of late, with multiple failed projects as well – putting its sustainability in serious jeopardy. As per recent reports online, Shadows might already have been […]

JUDE Bellingham has been spotted in the stands with his new girlfriend Ashlyn Castro.
The American model has been snapped supporting the England and Real Madrid star on several occasions – but who is she? Here’s everything you need to know.
Ashlyn Castro, 27, is an American influencer and model who hails from Los Angeles, California.
In January 2025, the model made headlines after The Sun exclusively revealed that she had been on a string of dates with Jude Bellingham.
Ashlyn has previously dated US basketball star Terance Mann and has been linked with a string of A-listers in recent years, including actor Michael B. Jordan and basketball star LaMelo Ball.
Aside from this information, not much else is known about the model as she has previously stated that she has ”never been one to share anything too personal” online.
In 2021, after losing her dad to Covid, she took to Instagram to share a tribute which read: “I’ve never been one to share anything too personal on [social media].
“I keep the people I love most closest to my heart, I want to protect them at all costs.”
According to pals, the pair have been on several dates, including one in which Ashlyn met Bellingham’s parents.
In January 2025, while in Real Madrid’s Wags and family box, the model was seen chatting with his mum Denise, and dad Mark.
The couple were later spotted heading for a lunch date in the Spanish capital, and Ashlyn was snapped with the midfielder and his family in the stands for a game against Girona in February 2025.
When she’s not supporting Bellingham from the stands, Ashlyn is keeping her huge fanbase updated over on social media.
The American influencer regularly shares stunning selfies and snaps from her travels on Instagram.
She has also amassed a huge following on TikTok where she posts makeup tutorials and shares fashion advice with fans.
Bellingham was previously linked with Dutch model Laura Celia Valk.
A source told The Sun at the time: “Laura was quite loose in telling all the make-up artists about seeing him during her latest job.
“Practically everyone on set knew about it by the end of the day.
“She’s been staying at his place in Madrid over the past few weekends and is completely smitten.”
However, in December 2024, Laura confirmed that she was single.
ZOE Ball looks set to make a big return to TV after signing up for a fan favourite TV show.
The popular presenter recently stood down from hosting her BBC Radio 2 breakfast show after six years at the helm.
Zoe, 54, stood down as she revealed she wanted to focus on family after her mother Julia passed away from cancer.
Now, just a few months on from her departure, The Sun can exclusively reveal that she has bagged herself a top new TV role.
Zoe has signed up to be one of the stars on the next run of the BBC show Who Do You Think You Are?
The show follows celebrities as they trace back their past and to learn more about their ancestry and their heritage.
An insider told The Sun: “Zoe comes from a famous family but not much is known beyond that.
“She was really excited to get be asked to the do show and is really looking forward to seeing what they find.”
Who Do You Think You Are declined to comment when approached by The Sun.
The new TV venture comes just days after it was revealed that the star, once the second highest paid BBC star, was working “at her local cafe”.
She reunited with her ex-husband Norman Cook for the shifts after escaping London for a cosier life in leafy Sussex.
Her son Woody Cook, who starred on Channel 4 show The Circle, told the MailOnline: “In the last five years, it’s been funny watching my parents take up gardening both of them.”
“These crazy party people I grew up with are now gardening, making puzzles and working in the local café,” Woody said.
“It’s very funny to see that transitional period, just as I’m kind of leaving the nest and now at the start of something big for me in music.”
Zoe and musician Fatboy Slim – real name Norman Cook – were married from 1999 to 2020.
The DJ and record producer owns the Big Beach Cafe in Hove and is often seen working there wearing a name badge reading: “Norm.”
PDC chief Matt Porter has defended the changes made to the European Tour following criticism from stars.
Last month the PDC announced players in the top 16 in the Order of Merit would receive a bye to the second round at European Tour events.
That means the likes of Luke Littler, Luke Humphries and Michael van Gerwen would not have to compete in the first round, but those in the top 16 of the ProTour Order of Merit would, such as Dave Chisnall.
There has been a considerable backlash to the change but PDC chief executive Porter believes there are now more opportunities for players to earn a living.
He told Online Darts: “That product is there for the player’s benefit. That product is not a particularly commercially prolific product.
“It doesn’t have a crowd, it doesn’t have broadcasters, it’s a product that is live-streamed on our website and on certain betting websites for obvious reasons.
“Ultimately, it is a product that is there to give the players an opportunity to make a living.
“If you’re a Tour Card holder now, you’ve got the equivalent of 104 tournaments, one a week over the two years of your Tour Card now. That’s a lot of opportunities.
“When you look at individual sports, if you’re being given the opportunity, on average, once a week to go and earn a living, then there comes a time when you have to deliver. Otherwise, maybe you’re not ready for the status that you’ve got.”
World No18 Ryan Searle was one of several stars to hit out at the change, saying: “What is the point of the ProTour Order of Merit? The one that shows the true form and consistency of players. Asking for a friend.”

He later doubled down on the comment, adding: “The top 16 are protected as it is anyway, and that only makes it worse. So yeah, obviously I do a lot of travelling going to all the Euro Tours, I try and do as many Pro Tours as I can and it just feels like a bit of a kick in the teeth.
“It’s just one of those things and I’ll deal with it. I try not to moan too much, I’ve said this year that I’m not going to moan. I’m just going to get my head down, put a lot more effort in than I have in the past and see where that takes me.”
Fellow player Willie O’Connor hit out at the ruling, which he labelled “soul destroying”.
He said: “It’s relentless, it’s so difficult.
“Like, the tour is, it’s soul destroying. You can go in and play in the best darts of your life and still go home with no money in the bank.
“So yeah, the tour is so hard, it’s the best players in the world.
“It’s not the best players in Ireland or England or Germany, it’s the best players in the world, and that’s what you’re against every week.
“The European Tour is such a huge part of the Pro Tour, and now eight qualify for the Pro Tour?
“I’m sorry for the Europeans, it’s like we haven’t a chance. How do you break into the top 32?
“How do you break in? I mean like whatever opportunity I have to pull it out from under you, and it makes it so difficult.
“So even if you qualify for one or two of those in the year, it’s going to be huge.
“You can’t catch the big boys. They are where they are and they’re going to stay there.”
KIM Kardashian has spoken out following the sudden death of Kylie Jenner’s longtime hairstylist and close friend Jesus Guerrero.
Jesus died aged 34 suddenly and unexpectedly, his younger sister Gris shared in an emotional statement last night.
Breaking her silence today, a heartbroken Kim said: “Our glam fam means the world to us. We work together, vacation, and celebrate our lives together!
“Our great respect for the art of hair and makeup has led us to meeting some of the kindest souls and made some of our best friends.”
The 44-year-old Kardashians star added: “So when one of our glam family members passes away, all of our souls are crushed.
“My heart breaks for Kylie and everyone who loved Jesus the way we all did.
“I’m praying for his family, his loved ones, and the whole beauty community who feels this deep loss of one of the most talented and kindest to ever do it. Rest in Peace @jesushair.”
Los Angeles-based hairstylist Jesus began working with Kylie, 27, in 2019 and became a cherished part of her inner circle.
Just last month, he accompanied the beauty mogul to Paris for Fashion Week, where she walked the runway for Jean Paul Gaultier and attended the Chanel show.
CALLS have been made for a public inquiry to be held into the 1987 Enniskillen bombing following fresh revelations.
The call was made by Belfast-based law firm KRW Law, who represent four families whose loved ones were either killed or injured in the PIRA attack.
The bombing claimed the lives of twelve people on November 8, 1987, as families gathered for a Remembrance Sunday event in the Co Fermanagh town.
Thirty-eight years on from the attack, the leading law firm has now written to the Irish Government urging them to support calls for a public inquiry similar to the Omagh bomb inquiry currently underway.
The call was made after a new book – entitled The Sorrow and the Loss – by Martin Dillon claimed both the Irish and British Governments concealed files about the 1987 bombing.
Dillon – who has written numerous books on The Troubles – also sensationally claimed that British intelligence agency M15 “tampered with the bomb’s timing mechanism determining that the explosion would devastate the IRA’s public image”.
There are also claims that MI5 were aware of the attack and “allowed it to happen”
A spokesperson for KRW law said: “The families are deeply concerned about reports on revelations by journalist Martin Dillion contained in his new book, The Sorrow and the Loss.
“The families we represent know that it was the PIRA who planted the bomb in Enniskillen on 8 November 1987.
“However the claims made by Martin Dillion, despite his caveat that such claims must be treated with considerable caution, raise issues of grave concern.
“These issues are that the British and Irish Government scrubbed files relating to the Enniskillen bombing and also had been sitting on such papers.
“These allegations are against the British and Irish Governments and their respective Intelligence Agencies.
“We are now writing to the Irish Government and British Government urging a public inquiry analogous to the Omagh Bomb Inquiry.”
