MEGHAN Markle has channelled a famous Love Islander for her latest Instagram video, according to a body language expert.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, shared a clip with her 1.6million followers explaining how she lent on Hollywood pals to gather T-shirts from Billie Eilish for a young fan whose home was lost in the LA wildfires.

“Bare-faced” Meghan tries to come across as “authentic”, according to Judi James, but there were “influencer” style elements which gave it a “contrived feel”.

The video showed Meghan in her £12million home sharing how A-list pals Behati Prinsloo and Adam Levine managed to get merchandise from singer Billie for the young fan.

While it was undeniably a kind gesture, Judi said: “This body language and performance is in a social media influencer style known as ‘contrived naturalness’.

“It’s Meghan channelling her inner Mollie-Mae Hague. She’s dropped the ring lights, filters and perfect grooming to appear bare-faced in front of the camera. This aims to signal brand honesty.

“She enforces this by forgoing professional camera-work. The video is all about the immersive amateur look with odd angles, unframed shots and the act of picking the camera up and carrying it into scenes while also talking in a chatty, unrehearsed-sounding way.

“It is a technique that creates feelings of intimacy and friendship-style collusion.”

While the video appeared to be filmed “off the cuff”, Meghan gestured to the carefully arranged piles of Billie Eilish stash on the table.

The body language expert said that we seem to be getting the “real” Meghan in the video, who is chatting to us “like a bestie.”

Judi added: “Meghan breaks all her usual communication ‘rules’ here, looking away as she is talking but then throwing her eyes to the camera in several powerful asides that suggest she’s sharing secrets.”

Meghan explained how she got in touch with a mother and her 15-year-old daughter who were affected by the raging LA wildfires.

The Duchess of Sussex sadly revealed that the teen was badly missing a prized Billie Eilish T-shirt after it was reduced to ash in the tragedy.

The 43-year-old said: “And so I said, well, I don’t know, Billie Eilish. I’m going to figure out how to get you this shirt.

“So I thought of everybody that I knew, and I made a voice note and I was like, please, can someone get this voice note to Billie Eilish.”

She then pans over to the pile of merch that Eilish sent over, exclaiming, “You guys, I don’t even know what all this stuff means, but it’s signed for her!”

Meghan happily revealed she had managed to secure much more than a T-shirt for the youngster.

The mum-of-two, who was visibly excited, showed off the signed goods including different clothing items.

She also held up what she described as a “lunch-box” thing and jokingly quipped she “felt really old” for not knowing what it was.

In the heartwarming social media clip, Meghan said she had met the family while in Atladena with Prince Harry.

The pair were visiting a community where “all the homes were left in ashes” when they stumbled upon the mother and daughter.

Meghan then signed off the video clip by thanking a number of stars who helped make the teenager’s dream come true.

The Duchess gave a shout out to everyone who “showed up in big and small ways” and helped victims of the California wildfires.

She added: “Huge thank you Billie Eilish, this is going to mean so much to her.

“Honestly to Adam Levine and Behati, you guys helped get this over the line.

“Just thank you so much. I’m gonna go and email her mum now. Just wanted to share that with you guys.”

The Los Angeles wildfires that occurred in January 2025 are predicted to have cost in excess of $135bn (£109.7bn).

It comes after Meghan was spotted helping at an LA wildfire relief hub as she hauled in bags of donations last month.

The Duchess, featured in a short video, shared by support charity Altadena Girls, showing the work they’re doing for LA fire victims.

The mum-of-two came laden with bags of supplies, while dressed down in a casual black fit and LA cap.

It comes as Meghan also decided to delay the release of her new Netflix docuseries amid the fires.

With Love, Meghan, was due to air eight 33-minute episodes in January but this has been rescheduled to March 4.

A WOMAN who scavenges in bins has revealed how she has taken home upwards of £80,000 worth of brand new goods for free.

Her impressive haul includes Dyson Airwraps, Calvin Klein outfits, and Apple items.

What started as a curious teenage hobby for Ella Rose has transformed into an online phenomenon, captivating millions with her unique content about her finds.

At just 13 or 14 years old, Ella Rose, now 23, discovered a passion for uncovering discarded treasures.

Since then the Texas-based content creator has found a gold mine of items she has either sold, donated, or kept from shops such as Sephora and Victoria’s Secret.

Her top hauls from her daily – and sometimes nightly – trips behind stores include a £480 Dyson Airwrap salvaged from a Sephora dumpster, and a £400 pair of Valentino trainers from Saks.

“I started actually watching other creators dumpster dive on YouTube, and I asked my mum to take me to try it,” Ella said.

She explained that she “ended up really liking it” and a few years later, she began documenting her finds on her own YouTube channel.

“I just shared the content where I find things, just like how I got started watching it. A lot of people enjoyed it,” she said.

Over time, she expanded to TikTok, Instagram, and other platforms, amassing two million followers.

“A lot of supporters tell me they’ve tried dumpster diving because of my videos and found some really good stuff,” she said.

For others who can’t physically go out — whether due to illness or other circumstances—her videos offer a window into what stores throw away, she says.

“About a year ago, I was dumpster diving at Sephora and found a bag full of high-end makeup, perfumes, and even a Dyson Airwrap,” she said.

“That was crazy — probably one of my favorite and most expensive finds.”

“A couple of years ago at PetSmart, I found live fish, like goldfish, in the dumpster,” she recalled.

“They get shipment containers, and I guess they thought the fish were dead, so they threw the entire bag away.

“I just happened to check the bag, and they were still alive.”

Seasonal items, often thrown away after the festive period, have also provided opportunities for giving back.

“PetSmart throws away things like seasonal dog clothing, toys, and treats after Christmas,” she said.

“I feel like these could all be donated to animal shelters, but instead, they’re thrown away.

“At Five Below, I recently found a dumpster full of food that was not expired.

“Everything was labelled for Christmas and the expiration dates are valid through 2027.”

I also found a huge bag from a Nike store. There were a few items lightly damaged but the majority was able to be saved.

Other notable discoveries include items from Victoria’s Secret and TK Maxx, such as name-brand clothing, lotions, and decorations.

“I’ve dumpster dived at Apple and found a few things in their trash,” she added.

“We had a tornado hit our area and ended up damaging a nearby mall and Saks threw away a lot of name brand and designer items that were ‘damaged’ in the storm.

“I also found a huge bag from a Nike store. There were a few items lightly damaged but the majority was able to be saved.”

Sometimes Ella sells £8,000 worth of items on her website. During slower months, she rakes in around £400.

While Ella keeps some items for herself, donations remain a big part of her mission, she said.

CHELSEA star Sam Kerr today told a court “I feared for life” in a drunken taxi row before she branded a cop “f***ing stupid and white”.

The 31-year-old was out with her partner – fellow footballer Kristie Mewis – when one was sick in the cab and the other smashed a window, it was said.

After allegedly refusing to pay a clean-up fee, the taxi driver drove the pair to Twickenham Police Station.

Once there, Kerr, who is currently sidelined from Chelsea with an ACL injury, became “abusive and insulting” towards Pc Stephen Lovell, jurors heard.

Giving evidence today, the Aussie international said she had put her head out of the window when she began to feel sick before the driver “rolled it up” and began to “drive dangerously”.

Kerr told Kingston Crown Court: “He accelerated and began to swerve in and out of lanes… We were getting thrown around.

“I couldn’t hear what he was saying. He was speeding up and stopping.

“Neither of us had our belts on so we stood up and tried to talk to him… it felt like he was going wherever he thought… I was terrified.”

Kerr said the dangerous driving continued for 15 to 20 minutes – causing her to feel “terrified for my life”.

She said there was “no reasoning” with the driver even after partner Kristie begged him to stop.

Kerr added: “Everything was going through my mind about being in a car with a stranger I deemed to be dangerous.

“Kristie was very distressed. She was crying and scared. I’ve never seen her like that before and it made me more scared.

“I started to realise how serious the situation was. It put me in protective mode… he had the power over us.

“We were not in control… I deemed him to be dangerous because of the driving but also because he could have taken us anywhere. He couldn’t be tracked so no one knew where we were.”

Kerr said the pair tried to open the doors and windows multiple times but they remained locked.

Eventually, Kristie “kicked out (the window) with her boot” which resulted in Kerr feeling “relieved”.

Footage played to jurors previously showed Kerr in the police station saying: “Honestly, you guys are f***ing stupid and white”.

She also reference Sarah Everard‘s murder – telling the officer: “Look at what happened last year when a girl accepted a police officer’s help in Clapham and got raped and killed.”

At one point in the bodycam video, Kerr branded the taxi driver a “f***ing liar” and calls him a “stupid c***”.

Prosecutor Bill Emlyn Jones KC said the police officer was left “shocked, upset and humiliated” by the comments.

He added: “He took offence to the comments that Ms Kerr made about his race because you may think that his being a white man really had nothing to do with anything.”

Matildas captain Kerr has pleaded not guilty to racially aggravated harassment.

The court heard she described the moment on January 30, 2023, as “heated” and said she was “just very angry at how I felt”.

Mr Jones added: “Ms Kerr said that both herself and Ms Mewis were crying at the time.”

Kerr’s lawyer Grace Forbes told jurors that no one disputes the words that were used but that they do not “make you guilty of a criminal offence”.

She continued: “The words were a comment, however poorly expressed, about positions of power, about privilege, and how those things might colour perception.”

Kerr has scored 99 goals in 128 matches since joining Chelsea in 2019.

During her time there, the team has won four Women’s Super League titles, three FA Cups, two Women’s League Cups and the Women’s Community Shield.

But the striker was crocked in January last year at the club’s warm weather training camp in Morocco.

Kerr is her country’s all-time record goalscorer with 64 goals in 125 games for the Matildas.

She has also been nominated for the Ballon d’Or Féminin – the top prize in women’s football – every year since its inception in 2018.

Kerr is in a relationship with fellow footballer Kristie, with the couple getting engaged last year.

They announced in November they are expecting a baby together.

The trial continues.

CCTV has revealed the last moment a missing 22-year-old was seen before she vanished from hospital.

Katie Linin, 22, disappeared as she was leaving Southampton General Hospital on February 3.

The young woman was last spotted walking away from the building in Lymington at 3.30pm.

Hampshire Police is unsure of her whereabouts and said she has links to the New Milton, Southampton and Lymington areas.

In a bid to find Katie, cops have released two images of her – one showing what she was last wearing and another showing her face.

The CCTV image shows Katie wore a navy jumper with a blue and orange stripe and a grey hood with dark cargo trousers.

She was also wearing a pair of white sliders.

In the second picture, she is seen smiling outside with long straight light brown hair.

Cops said she is white, around 5ft 3in tall, of slim build and is urging the public to look out for her.

In a statement released today, Hampshire Police said: “We are releasing two images of a missing woman as part of our enquiries to locate her.

“Katie Linin, 22, from Lymington, was last seen at 3.30pm on Monday 3 February leaving Southampton General Hospital.

“She is described as white, long light brown hair, slim build, about 5ft 3in tall.

“One image shows what Katie was last seen wearing; a navy blue hoodie with blue and orange stripe in the middle and grey hood, black cargo trousers and navy and white sliders.

“Katie has links to the New Milton, Southampton and Lymington areas.

“If anyone has any information regarding Katie’s whereabouts now, or her movements since she was last seen, please call 999 quoting reference 44250052017.”

IF you’re having a ruff day, just take a minute to observe these pics of Roy Keane with Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind in training.

Keano’s affinity with man’s best friend and this charity in particular is a longstanding one.

These latest photos were arranged amid a call-out for volunteers as the charity is in need of new puppy raisers.

The adjoining message with them read: “Roy Keane, Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind Ambassador, meets Puppy in Training Winifred.

“The charity is seeking dedicated puppy raisers to help support pups in their early training stages.

“No experience necessary—just a passion for caring and teaching dogs.

“Join a community of volunteers, and make a difference in a pup’s life-changing journey!

“See guidedogs.ie for further information.”

Speaking of Keane and being in a ‘ruff’ mood, his beloved Manchester United’s form won’t have helped turn his usual frown upside down.

The Red Devils have somehow gotten worse since Ruben Amorim replaced Erik ten Hag in the dug out.

They are enduring their worst-ever Premier League campaign as they sit in a lowly 13th after 24 rounds of fixtures.

Their season outlook went from awful to somehow even worse on Sunday too when Lisandro Martinez suffered an ACL injury in another dispiriting loss at Old Trafford – this time to Crystal Palace.

While attempting to win the ball from Ismaila Sarr, the defender lunged forward before his left knee buckled.

He immediately fell to the floor clutching his leg and signalled over to the bench to be substituted.

The Argentine World Cup winner then broke down in tears as he was carried off the pitch.

Speaking after the match, head coach Amorim admitted the injury to Martinez looked “serious”.

MONDAY TEST RESULTS

Now reports in Argentina claim he will miss the remainder of the season with a severe ACL injury.

Tests carried out on Monday allegedly confirmed that Martinez ruptured the cruciate ligament in his left knee.

He will now have to undergo surgery and will likely be sidelined for around eight months.

“He is not only a great player but a strong character in the dressing room,” said Amorim after Sunday’s 2-0 defeat.

“He felt it and when you are a player, you know when it is something serious. We are here to help him in this difficult moment like he has helped us.”

Martinez has been plagued by injury problems since joining the Red Devils in July 2022.

He missed the end of his debut season with a metatarsal fracture before foot, calf and knee problems hampered the 2023-24 campaign.

A self-styled ‘extreme day tripper’ has notched up more than 30 visits to Europe… without ever going to sleep on holiday.

Robbie Watson has spent nine years travelling everywhere from Iceland and Lanzarote to Helsinki and Tirana.

Construction manager Robbie Watson, 31, even made £260 on one of his extreme day trips[/caption]

Robbie posts his adventures on his Instagram page, robbiewatson, where he shares the realities of extreme day tripping.

Speaking exclusively to Sun Travel, the 31-year-old construction manager, from Bedfordshire, revealed all about his holiday hobby – from the best and worst places to visit, to how he finds his cheap flights.

He said: “One that always comes back to me is Iceland – it’s a bucket list trip and I managed to fit it into a day.

“I got to see the Northern Lights, explore Reykjavik and go to the Sky Lagoon all within 24 hours, and even slept in my own bed afterwards.”

While Robbie gushed about his day-trip to Iceland, he wouldn’t return to Lanzarote for a day.

He said: “Lanzarote was a 4 hour flight each way – so a fair distance to travel.

“There isn’t much to do in a day here unless you just want to have a beach day – great for some people but not for me.

“I spent a good 8 hours in Lanzarote, but that was more than enough for me”.

Extreme day trips involve a lot of “jeopardy” with holidaymakers gambling on the certainty that flights won’t be delayed, as it cuts into valuable holiday time.

But that doesn’t always mean a negative outcome, like when his outbound flight to Tirana was delayed last year.

Because while this did put a dampener on the day trip, he was able to claim £260 on his £9 flight.

He said: “Luckily, I hadn’t left the house when I got a text saying, ‘your flight’s been delayed by three hours’.

“Immediately, I thought, ‘I’m onto a winner here’ because I had a loose understanding of the claims rules”.

Because his flight was delayed by more than three hours, and it was the airline’s fault, Robbie was able to claim compensation for the delay, earning him £340.

After the day-tripper spent £72.50 in the Albanian capital, he came away with a profit of £260.

Despite the delay, Robbie was able to ride the Dajti Ekspres, the longest cableway in the Balkans and visit Bunk’Art 1 – a massive Cold War bunker turned museum.

On each of his extreme day trips, Robbie makes sure to book onto a free walking tour because ” you get a nice overview of the city in two hours and you just have to pay a small tip”.

One place Robbie wouldn’t return to on a day trip is Lanzarote[/caption]

And while some people might search out the best beach or the fanciest bar… he always tries to do his homework on the best place to see the sunset.

He added: “I try and base one of my stops around sunset, which of course is free and who doesn’t love a great sunset in a random European city”.

Food can be a little trickier, as it is often quicker to find food like pizza or a burger, which doesn’t take much time to plan.

Robbie added: “In Lanzarote, I had a burger and chips, which was fine, but someone complained about it in the comments, saying, ‘You went all the way to Lanzarote and had burger and chips’.

“If I’ve got time, I try and plan a nice place to eat. One of my favourite things was a day trip to Pisa where I had a beautiful takeaway pizza underneath the Leaning Tower of Pisa.”

Later this year, Robbie will be going to Switzerland on a group day trip with a handful of other like-minded holidaymakers.

He said: “We’re going to head up to the mountains for a day in March, see some snow, mountains, and maybe a mountain rollercoaster. It’s going to be fantastic”.

Extreme day tripping has seen people book cheap morning flights before returning the same day and swerving any accommodation costs.

One mum booked £37 return flights to Ibiza, after wanting to visit London – only to find trains were £152.

KANYE West and his wife Bianca Censori have been seen for the first time since THAT Grammy dress controversy.

In her true style, Bianca, 30, wore see-through tights and high heels as she strutted alongside her husband, 47.

Bianca shocked on the Grammys red carpet by wearing this see-through dress[/caption]

On Sunday, Bianca shocked onlookers at the prestigious Hollywood event by wearing nothing but a sheer dress over her naked body.

But shrugging the incident off, the model stepped out with her husband Kanye and once again ditched the underwear.

Wearing see-through leggings, Bianca left VERY little to the imagination as she strutted her stuff.

Her peachy bum was in full view as she headed out to dinner with Kanye.

She completed her sexy look with a pair of high heels.

But this time Bianca didn’t go completely naked, as she covered up her top half with a chic white coat.

NAKED AT THE GRAMMYS

On Sunday, Bianca arrived at the Grammy Awards wearing a black fur coat, and then headed straight to the red carpet with Kanye.

She then slowly removed her coat from behind to reveal her bare butt before turning around to face photographers.

Bianca’s bare chest and private parts were fully exposed, as just the completely see-through piece of fabric covered her body.

Kanye stood next to his wife in an all-black outfit and sunglasses.

‘KICKED OUT’

But it looks like the couple’s stunt didn’t go down well with Grammy bosses.

A source later told The U.S. Sun that she and Kanye were “both kicked out” of the A-list event in Los Angeles.

The source said: “Kanye and Bianca were not believed to have been officially invited to the Grammys. They’ve both since been kicked out.”

However, a second source close to Kanye insisted they “absolutely had tickets” as he was nominated for Best Rap Song and only ever planned to get photographed with Bianca and leave.

Kanye was reportedly seen being escorted out by police after walking the red carpet, leading many to believe it was because of Bianca’s choice of clothing, or lack thereof.

A third insider told The U.S. Sun: “He doesn’t care [that he was kicked out]. He went to get photographed on the carpet and is now having a watch party.”

A lipreader has since said that Kanye told Bianca to ‘make a scene’[/caption]

KANYE ‘TOLD BIANCA TO DO IT’

Meanwhile, a lip-reader has analyzed TikTok footage of Kanye and Bianca talking at the side of the red carpet moments before she ditched her fur coat to reveal all.

Nicola Hickling said that she believed the rapper was behind the nude stunt.

Speaking to the MailOnline she said: “You’re making a scene now.

“Make a scene, I’ll say it’ll make so much sense.”

In the viral video clip, the Australian model can be seen nodding her head as her husband speaks quietly to her.

According to Nicola, he then told his wife: “Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you.”

Nicola believes Bianca replied: “Alright let’s go.”
