USA goalie Matt Turner finds out he and his wife are having a girl

She recalled: ‘I walked into the room where we were having tutoring. The assignment that had been given was to draw what you thought God looked like, and Tom had drawn a girl with a backward cap on a skateboard.

Giovanni Reyna’s parents, former US captain Claudio Reyna and former women’s player Danielle told US Soccer of a 1992 domestic violence incident involving Berhalter and the women he later married – who was Danielle’s former college roommate. 

‘She added: “I know nothing about football but I know that you went with the national team and you only scored one goal. Even if I was the national team head coach, I would not have called you up! A goal scorer has to score goals, that’s all.” She was brutal.’

This taut thriller set in the remote Scottish Highlands is far from an idyllic getaway. Prepare for a full-on nerve-wringing nightmare that its protagonists are desperate to wake up from. Vaughn and Marcus set out on a lads’ weekend hunting trip, but after a night of drinking, they find themselves facing events they never could have planned for. Calibre lives up to its name, delivering a slick package of grim, gripping drama. Let the full force of this one wallop you.

‘I should have been the player that the coach would have put first in his squad. If that was not the case, I was the only one to blame. Because whether you are loved or not, if you score and you play well, you get picked.

On working with the child stars, Christopher insisted Emma was ‘the cleverest person on the whole set’, while she herself insisted she ‘is Hermione’ having connected deeply with the character: ‘Hermione made complete sense to me, I felt like I was this girl’, and admitted her family feared for her if she didn’t get the role. 

Despite playing fierce adversaries – Radcliffe as bespectacled boy wizard Potter and Bonham Carter as Voldemort’s evil lieutenant Bellatrix Lestrange – the pair enjoyed a close friendship off-camera. 

The USMNT largely impressed with Berhalter opting for youth as they progressed as Group B runners-up behind England, before eventually exiting the competition at the last-16 stage after a 3-1 defeat by Holland. 

‘I had my chance. I played for the national team and I didn’t do enough. So that’s it. I have no time to cry or fault someone else. It is on me. Now I am working hard to perform and get another chance.’

If you liked The Haunting of Hill House, then check out Mike Flanagan’s adaptation of Stephen King novel Gerald’s Game. Carla Gugino is immense as Jessie, who goes on holiday with her husband at an isolated lake house in Alabama. Largely sticking to a bedroom setting, we see the couple’s troubles go from bad to worse, with Jessie ending up in the impossible situation of being handcuffed to the bed with no one to help her escape. Gerald’s Game leads to narratively and emotionally satisfying conclusions, with Flanagan’s melancholy-suffused horror that surges into quiet triumph for its haunted characters.

This Italian film has the seal of approval from Bong Joon-ho, so let’s listen to the Oscar-winning director of Parasite and add it to this list. Written and directed by Alice Rohrwacher, Happy as Lazzaro is set in the ’70s on a tobacco farm, where good-hearted young peasant Lazzaro dutifully works. When a nobleman convinces him to help him fake his own kidnapping, a story of friendship, innocence and social commentary unfolds. A gorgeously shot, cinematic fairytale.

The Boys in the Band sets a new stage for an ensemble cast who all performed the classic play-by-the-same-name’s 2018 Broadway revival. Among them, Jim Parsons, Zachary Quinto and Matt Bomer. The movie brings new perspectives to a birthday party celebrated by a group of gay men in 1968 New York City. The party takes an unexpected turn when a visitor from the host’s past calls in. With a cast that knows how to play off each other and compelling themes such as self-loathing and internalized homophobia, The Boys in the Band is a thought-provoking, engaging drama.

The actress – who played Hermione Granger in the wizarding movie franchise – reminisced about her crush on Felton, villainous Draco Malfoy, and vividly recalled him making her heart skip a beat for the first time.

Radcliffe wasn’t alone in developing an on-set crush, with Emma Watson, 31, recalling the exact moment that she ‘fell in love’ with her former co-star Tom Felton, 34, during a tutoring session between filming.

An Aaron Sorkin drama based on a true story? The Trial of the Chicago 7 lives up to its pedigree, following the real-life trial of a group of anti-Vietnam War protestors charged with conspiracy to incite riots. With a stellar ensemble cast, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron Cohen and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, The Trial of the Chicago 7 is both topical and full of compelling theatrical energy.

Dame Maureen Lipman, 76, backs JK Rowling over trans debate

Dame Maureen Lipman has urged people to stop ‘kicking a**’ at author JK Rowling for her views on the language around transgender identities, adding that she is an ‘actress not an actor’.

The Coronation Street star urged people to not attack each other for their views, as she supported the writer’s stance on womanhood, stepping into the trans debate.

‘I am an actress, not an actor and, if somebody tries to take the word “woman” away from me, I shall be very cross,’ Dame Maureen said.

‘If you have to kick a** at someone like Joanne Rowling, who’s literally taught a generation to read, something’s not right.’ 

Dame Maureen Lipman has urged people to stop ‘kicking a**’ at author JK Rowling for her views on the language around transgender identities

The Harry Potter writer has objected to the phrase ‘people who menstruate’ instead of ‘women’, facing furious backlash as a result

‘Yes, some of my views can be a little old fashioned.

But don’t attack me for them. Consider my point of view. Demonstrate a little kindness. Be patient,’ the 76-year-old told Reader’s Digest. 

The Harry Potter writer has previously objected to the phrase ‘people who menstruate’ instead of ‘women’, facing furious backlash as a result.

The 56-year-old said that by using the phrase, it was erasing ‘the lived reality of women globally’. 

She regularly speaks out about transgender issues and the impact that decisions made by organisations and schools could have on sex as a protected characteristic under the 2010 Equality Act. 

It comes as the children’s book author defended a disabled schoolgirl who was told she did not have the right to women-only care in school toilets.

The parents of the 16 year-old girl, who has severe learning disabilities, were told two years ago the school was replacing its ‘same-sex’ intimate care policy with a ‘cross-gender’ policy.

This meant male staff would also be able to take part in intimate care for the pupil – including using the toilet and changing rooms.

The parents of ‘Helen’ raised their concerns over their dispute with the school in a blog post

JK Rowling blasted the school’s approach on Twitter, saying it would endanger ‘extremely vulnerable girls.’

The Harry Potter author added: ‘This is a travesty.

‘Have we learned nothing from successive abuse scandals?

Do we value the disabled so little?’ 

The parents of ‘Helen’ – not her real name – wrote about their dispute with the school in a post on website Transgender Trend.

They said the school eventually conceded Helen could be cared for by women, but only because of ‘parental preference.’

The Harry Potter author gave a damning verdict on the school’s controversial policy 

Ms Rowling posted a thread of Tweets on the dispute, criticising what she called ‘cruelty and indifference’ 

The author has previously been praised by Attorney General Suella Braverman over transgender issues in schools.

The Tory minister said the Harry Potter author was a ‘heroine’ for campaigning for female only spaces for those born women and added that schools should be able to treat all children by their birth gender because under 18s cannot legally change their gender.  

In April, JK Rowling’s name magically reappeared in the trailer for the Fantastic Beasts film after it was effectively scrubbed from the original version amid the author’s ongoing transphobia row.

The Harry Potter creator was barely mentioned in the first teaser in December after many said she had been cancelled by the woke brigade for her comments on trans issues.

In its original trailer, it used the captions ‘Warner Bros invites you’ rather than ‘J.K Rowling invites you’, as had been the case in previous teasers, and shoved Rowling’s name in a minor publishing note at the end.

It led some to theorise that studio bosses were ‘woke-washing’ the film’s promotional material by removing or hiding Rowling’s name to appeal to millennial and younger audiences — many of whom disagree with her remarks.

The same month, the author hosted some of the country’s most prominent feminists and women’s activists for a self-confessed boozy lunch to support the ‘Respect My Sex’ campaign.

Guests at The River Cafe in Fulham included Professor Kathleen Stock, who resigned from her University of Sussex job after being accused of ‘transphobia’ and Helen Joyce, who penned Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality.

In April, JK Rowling’s name magically reappeared in the trailer for the Fantastic Beasts film after it was effectively scrubbed from the original version amid the author’s ongoing transphobia row 

The co-founder of Sex Matters – which has united with other causes under the slogan ‘Respect my Sex if you want my X’ banner – Maya Forstater was also there.

They were joined by MP Rosie Duffield and veteran activist and campaigner at Get The L Out- Lesbian NOT queer campaign group Lianne Timmermann.

Also there was businesswoman Angela Wild, who says she has been sent ‘death and rape threats on a daily basis’ by transgender rights activists over her t-shirts and badges campaigning for women’s sex-based rights. 

In May, the 44-year-old was locked out of her Twitter account for writing: ‘All men should be banned from women-only spaces – and they are’.

She was supported by JK Rowling, who retweeted a post claiming Ms Wild was being ‘sabotaged’ by trans activists. 

That month, the BBC criticised an arts reporter who made a ‘misleading’ comment on JK Rowling’s views on gender identity.

Tom Sutcliffe made the statement on BBC Radio 4’s Front Row programme on March 24 that JK Rowling’s critical view on whether transgender women are women is ‘very unpopular’.

The journalist was complained about 584 times and the BBC’s complaints unit said there is no evidence that Rowling’s view is in a minority.
