Amber Heard is bracing herself for a second bruising court battle with her ex-husband Johnny Depp – even if the Pirates of the Caribbean star loses his high-profile libel case against The Sun newspaper. As the actress yesterday flew home from a holiday in Turkey ahead of a verdict – expected as early as this week – in the dramatic High Court fight between Depp and The Sun, her legal team are preparing for a potential fresh clash in the American courts.

A couple from Sydney with limited renovation experience have transformed an old house built in 1983 into a stylish, modern home - without breaking their budget. Caragh Welford, 32, and Jordan Herrick, 31, bought the two-storey house in July 2019 and dedicated every weekend to the project for five months.  The pair purchased the house in Jervis Bay, on the NSW South Coast, as a long-term investment property with the aim to turn it into an AirBnB or to use it as a holiday home in the summer. 'The house was definitely "dated" and in its original state; it's as if we had bought it the same day it was built because it had the same wallpaper, wooden trimmings and original carpet,' Caragh told FEMAIL. Jordan is a plumber by trade while Caragh is a marketing consultant, so the couple said they were 'rookies to renovation' but knew a lot of hard work would be involved. Caragh said they fell in love with the house's high ceilings, exposed beams and sense of '

Gareth Southgate has backed Dean Henderson's decision to leave Sheffield United and return to his parent club Manchester United to challenge David de Gea for the No 1 spot there even though it may initially mean he plays less. The England manager, who included Henderson in his squad to face Iceland next weekend, says that the 23-year-old goalkeeper has picked the right time to step up to the challenge after a year on loan at Shrewsbury and two years on loan at Bramall Lane. 'I think it's an opportunity for him really,' said Southgate. 'Of course, he could take another season out and gain another year of Premier League experience but at his age as a goalkeeper you can't just think about the international situation.  England's Gareth Southgate has backed Dean Henderson's decision to leave Sheffield United  'You are building a career and here's an opportunity to challenge for the shirt at Manchester United if they are asking him to stay in the build

I’ll buy you a diamond ring, my friend, if it makes you feel all right, The Beatles sang. And in their transfer splurges over the last decade and more, Manchester City have bought diamond rings aplenty: David Silva, Raheem Sterling and Kevin De Bruyne have sparkled with beauty and brilliance.  There is still one thing that has remained just beyond the club’s grasp in its new incarnation but if they snag Lionel Messi, that will change. Money can’t buy you love. But Messi can. If City can make real what once seemed to belong to fantasy and prise Messi from Barcelona’s increasingly clammy clutch, he would be the final piece in the jigsaw they started putting together in 2008, when Sheik Mansour bought the club and began to transform it into one of Europe’s leading sides. If Messi plays for City, it legitimises at a stroke everything they have built. No other player could bestow this but Messi can. Sure, City have had our admiration for some time now. The Pep Guardiola teams that won back-

I feel for Jack Grealish. He was superb for Aston Villa last season, one of the standout English players in the Premier League, and was the key to his side’s survival. So, it was a huge blow for him to be left out of the England squad for the Nations League games. Gareth Southgate said he sees Grealish as a winger, maybe as a No 10, and he has a wealth of talent in those areas with Raheem Sterling, Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood. It’s true, England have tremendous quality in attacking areas. Where I think Southgate is wrong is seeing him only in those positions. At his best, I believe Grealish is part of the midfield trio behind the front three.  I feel for Jack Grealish and it was a blow that he was left out of England's Nations League squad One of the two forward central midfielders ahead of the holding player, like Kevin De Bruyne ahead of Rodri for Manchester City or Paul Pogba ahead of Nemanja Matic for Manchester United. Grealish has the strength to play in

Premier League executives are expected to hold talks with club captains and the Black Participants Advisory Group this week to discuss whether to keep the Black Lives Matter slogan on players' shirts. The slogan has attracted controversy because the UK branch of the Black Lives Matter movement, unconnected to the Premier League campaign, has been accused of tweeting anti-semitic tropes and says that it exists to 'dismantle capitalism', an aim that is clearly at odds with Premier League owners and many players. It appears that the campaign, which saw players kneel down before games — a gesture popularised by NFL star Colin Kaepernick and known as taking the knee — will continue in some form, but the debate will be about whether to continue to use the same slogan. Premier League officials will hold talks on whether to keep Black Lives Matter slogans on player shirts for the 2020-21 season  Doncaster manager Darren Moore, the chair of the Black Participants Advisory Group, whi
