Jasmine Lennard is already “completely traumatized” and “exhausted” by the illness of her mother, former Bond girl Marilyn Galsworthy, who fell into a coma last month, and is now mourning the loss of her son’s father.
Seth Binzer, the frontman of the American rap-rock group Crazy Town, was found dead in his Los Angeles home on Monday at the age of 49.
The singer, known as Shifty Shellshock, presumably died of an accidental drug overdose.
Jasmine, 38, has a 13-year-old son, Phoenix, with Binzer.
“We are heartbroken,” she tells me. “He was a tortured soul, but a beautiful one, and he had a heart of gold. He struggled with addiction his entire life. God knows he tried so hard to conquer his demons, but unfortunately he lost the battle.”
Florence’s next step? Hug!
Oppenheimer star Florence Pugh has enjoyed overwhelming success in Hollywood, but the Oxford restaurant owner’s daughter needs a break.
“I’ve just finished my second Marvel film, which was quite big,” she tells me in Glastonbury, where she was promoting Dune: Part 2 at the film’s Pilton Palais Cinema.
The 28-year-old actress, who plays Princess Irulan Corrino in the hit film, added: “What’s next? I think a little break from acting. I need to do a little dancing, a little cuddle with friends and just have fun.”
The chic crowd talks about … Baronet says goodbye to 700-year-old family home
Although he hates filling out forms, Baronet Sir Thomas Ingilby admits that one question gives him pleasure: “How long have I currently lived at my current residence?”
In response he always writes: “700 years.”
Unfortunately, he will not be able to write much longer as he is putting his estate, Ripley Castle, near Harrogate in Yorkshire, up for sale – thus ending its time as a “beloved family home” for more than seven centuries.
He says the sale, which will take place later this year, has “the full support of her family.”
The 14th century listed house has beautiful grounds, lakes, a deer park, walled gardens, greenhouses and a vegetable garden.
It serves as a wedding venue and is the setting for the Ripley Show every year.
The sale is likely to also include the pub, hotel and restaurant as well as some houses in the village.
Sir Thomas, 68, who has five children with his wife Emma, will continue to live nearby and “focus on his other interests”.
Earlier this month I announced that another baronet, Sir Philip Williams, had put his magnificent Bridehead estate in Dorset up for sale for £30 million after seven generations of family ownership.
Could it be the prospect of a Labour government?
She has spent much of her career progressing to the sound of gunfire, but at 58, former war correspondent turned filmmaker Charlotte Eagar seems to have taken on her most daunting task yet.
I can reveal that she has answered a last-minute call from Tory headquarters to stand in the Liverpool constituency of Wavertree, up against Labour’s Paula Barker, who had a 27,000-vote majority in 2019.
“In some ways it’s a challenge for me as a Conservative, but it’s also an exciting time,” Eagar tells me.
Glastonbury Festival will not broadcast the round of 16 match between England and Slovakia tomorrow, and the music festival’s founder, Sir Michael Eavis, has very clear opinions on the sport.
“I just don’t understand how they can continue without changing the rules,” explains the dairy farmer.
“The offside rule really needs to be abolished.”
“Then there would be more goals, it would be more fun and everyone would be happier.”
(Very) modern manners
It is located in the same building as Le Caprice, but the chic 80s style of London’s Arlington restaurant is not matched by the “style” of some of the new diners.
This week, several men showed up wearing shorts and T-shirts, horrifying the other guests.
“I know the weather is warm, but this is St. James, not Bermuda,” grumbles a waiter who was a regular at Le Caprice, where Princess Diana often dined.
“I don’t expect to see hairy legs while I eat my steak tartare.”
Jeremy King, Arlington’s dapper owner, is unimpressed by the decline in dress standards.
“I hate dress codes,” he tells me.
