Tensions are reportedly rising behind the scenes at Old Trafford as the Glazer family grow increasingly frustrated with Sir Jim Ratcliffe's leadership. Despite the INEOS founder taking control of football operations earlier this year, the club has slumped to its worst start to a league campaign in nearly four decades.
Ratcliffe acquired a minority stake in United in 2024, a deal worth £1.2 billion that handed his INEOS group total control over football operations. The agreement included an additional £245 million injection to upgrade Old Trafford's fading infrastructure, taking his overall financial commitment to approximately £1.5bn. However, two years on, the anticipated revival has failed to materialise.
Instead of progressing, the Red Devils find themselves embroiled in a deepening crisis. They are currently enduring an eight-game winless run across all competitions, managing just a single Premier League victory so far this term. Hovering a perilous two points above the foot of the table, this represents United's poorest start to a campaign in almost 40 years.
Watching from afar, the Glazer family are reportedly astonished by the rapid decline under the new sporting regime. A source close to the American owners told the Daily Mail that the current situation is "a travesty and not what they expected or were promised." The insider added that the Glazers feel "they have never run the club this way."
The frustration runs deep, with the current hierarchy allegedly viewing the INEOS approach as a complete failure. According to ESPN, the Glazers believe Ratcliffe "couldn't have masterminded a worse situation" at Old Trafford.

The pounding drums of Fogo Azul have become a familiar sound for New York City Marathon runners, and this Sunday the group will once again take its place along the course to help motivate athletes chasing the finish line.
Fogo Azul, which means "blue fire" in Portuguese, is a women-led samba reggae drumline whose mantra is simple: percussion is power.
Founder Stacy Kovacs said the group's energy is a natural match for New York.
"New York is big, we're big ..we're loud, New York is loud," Kovacs said.
The drumline has become a marathon tradition that both members and runners look forward to each year. According to Kovacs, runners can hear the band long before they arrive.

PORT HURON, Mich. (AP) — President Donald Trump intensified his anti-Muslim rhetoric against Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed on Sunday, portraying him as a threat to national security and questioning his loyalty to the United States in remarks that drew a sharp rebuke from a former top Arab American ally.
Trump called El-Sayed, a former Detroit health official, a "jihadist" who was "on the side of the terrorists" and would "have to go through a metal detector before he's allowed to go into the Senate." He also repeatedly invoked the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, drawing a comparison between stopping El-Sayed from entering the Senate chamber and the passengers who fought back against the hijackers aboard United Flight 93.
El-Sayed, who would become the nation's first Muslim senator if elected, has called attacks on his loyalty to the country "shameful" and repeatedly denied any ties to extremist groups. The Republican president's remarks were condemned by Bishara Bahbah, a founder of Arab Americans for Trump, the group that helped lead the president's outreach to Arab American voters in 2024.
"The president's statements are out of line," he said in a phone interview. "They are crossing a red line. They are racist."
With Republicans on the defensive over inflation, soaring fuel prices and the Iran war, the president has been trying to generate turnout by claiming that El-Sayed and other Democrats are existential threats to America, instead of electoral rivals. Michigan's Senate race between El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers is among a handful of contests that could determine control of the chamber.

Hugh Hefner's widow, Crystal Harris, has urged Jessica Biel not to play the Playboy founder's wife in a new movie about life in the mansion.
Earlier this week, it was announced that Biel had joined the cast of the new movie Playmates, inspired by writer/director Lorraine Nicholson's own experiences at the Playboy mansion during her childhood.
Harris DM'd Biel, and then shared that Instagram message on her grid, tagging the actor.
"Please reconsider playing Hugh Hefner's 'wife' if this film intends to romanticise him or the Playboy world," she wrote.
"I was actually his wife, and I experienced ***** ual, emotional, financial and physical abuse in that relationship. Many other women have come forward with allegations of rape, coercion, drugging and exploitation as well.
"There are also deeply troubling concerns involving minors. I hope everyone involved in this film takes the time to listen to the women who lived it before helping Hollywood turn it back into nostalgia."

We now have a better idea of exactly who the biggest creators are on social media. ESHAP and What's Trending have partnered to unveil the second annual Creator Map, a guide to the biggest creators by platform. And TheWrap has your first look at their findings.
The Creator Map will be unveiled later today at the first Jupiter Festival Miami, which is sponsored by YouTube. Evan Shapiro, media cartographer and ESHAP founder and CEO; Shira Lazar, What's Trending founder and CEO; and Jon Goss, CEO of the Lighthouse will unveil the project on the main stage of the event.
Described as the "definitive visual guide to the creator ecosphere," the Creator Map offers a data-informed view of the creator economy, an industry that can often feel confusing and chaotic from an outsider perspective. For the first time, the top 200 creators across Instagram, YouTube and TikTok will have both their follower counts and Affinity Quotient scores published on the map. Sponsored by Whalar Group and with data powered by Whalar's creator operating system Foam, the Affinity Quotient measures the depth of audience engagement and places a greater emphasis on active signals such as shares and saves than on passive interactions. That's an important insight as engagement rather than follower count has become the top metric in the creator economy. The Creator Affinity 100 list was first presented at this this year's IBC and identified 100 creators generating the greatest affinity among their audiences.
The map also identifies top creators across Snap, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Twitch, Pinterest and Rumble, along with the top Substack publishers and podcasters. Additionally, it identifies some of the top agencies, studios, technology tools, payment platforms and other companies powering the creator ecosystem. Check it out below:

It's not easy being a billionaire in the event that a stock market bubble bursts.
Just ask billionaire Bridgewater ****** ociates founder Ray Dalio, who sounds like he's worrying about potentially massive wealth destruction if the artificial intelligence trade goes south.
"Everybody says 'I'm worth a billion dollars' but, OK, try to spend that," Dalio said at the Forbes Global CEO Conference in Singapore on Wednesday. Bloomberg first reported his comments.
Dalio suggested that measures that force the ultrawealthy to liquidate their unrealized gains, such as a wealth tax, could hasten or contribute to a bubble popping.
"In order to spend that, you have to sell wealth in order to get money — and so the bubble usually ****** at that," he added.

Martha Stewart may not have a private jet, but she's done very well for herself over the years.
The lifestyle guru, 85, appeared on the Tuesday, October 6 episode of David Rogier's Other People's Business podcast, where the MasterClass founder and CEO asked whether fellow businesswoman Kim Kardashian has ever come to her for advice.
"We've talked, but she doesn't need my advice," Stewart responded. "That group is really, really good, and I really admire it. You know she's flying around in a G5. I don't have a G5."
"Why don't you think that you have a private jet?" Rogier questioned, to which the TV personality explained, "Because I fell in a hole and I lost about a billion dollars in my legal problems. The lawyers took me to the cleaners, and they were horrible."

Kourtney Kardashian has responded to Jennifer Lawrence publicly calling her "more annoying than ever".
In the season eight premiere of The Kardashians, the 47-year-old revealed that The Hunger Games actress sent her an email after calling her "more annoying than ever" during the Vanity Fair lie detector test in November 2025.
"She's like, 'I just feel like I'm one of your sisters,'" Kourtney told her friend Simon Huck in the episode, which aired on Thursday. "And when I rewatched it, I was like, 'Oh, it's not that bad actually.'"
"She asked (sister) Kim (Kardashian) for my email, and then she sent me that email, which is so nice. I saw it late last night, so I have not responded. I mean, do I say something funny? Like, 'You can come over and I'll beat your f**king a*s?'"
Referring to her infamous physical fight with Kim on Keeping Up with the Kardashians in 2020, Kourtney quipped, "I'll just say, next time you wanna come over, we can go at it - Kourtney and Kim style."
The Lemme founder noted that she was having "a really sensitive week" and felt everyone was "ganging up" on her when Jennifer sent the email.

Michael Dell, philanthropist and founder of Dell Technologies, pushed back against critics who argue that allowing wealthy investors to donate individual company stocks to Trump Accounts could have a nefarious impact.
Under new rules that took effect last week, charities can put individual stocks into kids' accounts as a donation. Trump Accounts are tax-advantaged investment vehicles that can be used for education expenses, starting a business, or saving for retirement. They were authorized in last year's One Big Beautiful Tax bill. Previously, the money was required to be invested in low-cost index funds.

So far, ***** eX President Gwynne Shotwell is the only donor to announce a major stock contribution, pledging more than 2 million shares to benefit lower-income children ages 11 to 17 living in lower-income areas.
"It's kind of hard for me to believe that's a bad thing, right?" Dell said Wednesday in an interview with Yahoo Finance. "That these children are going to somehow be negatively influenced because they now have one share of ***** eX, but they didn't have before, right? The alternative is they didn't have it, right?"

When True Food Kitchen filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Oct. 4, the chain's CEO Jeff Chandler tried to make it clear that the company planned to continue operating.
"This process is the best path forward to simplify the business and focus on what we do best: delivering craveable, health-forward food and genuine hospitality. We are confident this step will help us build a stronger True Food Kitchen for the future," he said in a press release.
True Food Kitchen serves an upscale clientele looking for healthy food. Most of its stores are located in higher-end shopping or lifestyle plazas. That contributed to its financial problems, Chad Van Horn, founder and managing partner of Van Horn Law Group in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., shared with TheStreet.
"True Food Kitchen did not file because people stopped eating there. Sales were essentially flat, about $312 million last year against $314 million the year before, and the reported debt is around $42 million. That is a cost and footprint problem, not a demand problem," he said.
As part of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, True Food Kitchen shared that it had already closed 12 restaurants. Those locations completed their final service on Oct. 4, but the initial release did not share which locations were closing.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's daughter, Princess Lilibet, made an adorable appearance in the new As Ever video. Recently, the mother of two shared a reel on Instagram, introducing her brand's holiday collection. The princess accompanied her Mom in the kitchen and helped her make fruit jam.
In the clip, Markle seemed to be the one recording the adorable mother-daughter moment. She stirred the jam mixture on the stove, and just near the stove stood Lilibet. The little one appeared to be her mom's sous chef and business partner. She had a large bowl in front of her on the kitchen counter. Her tiny hand held a spatula as she spread the fruit jam.
Furthermore, Markle asked her kid, "What do you think, Lili?" The toddler looked over the pot on the stove and gave her verdict. "I think it's beautiful," she said. However, her face was not entirely shown in the clip.
Meanwhile, this was not the first time Markle involved her children in her Instagram videos. Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet have often featured in their mom's reels. However, their faces have not been fully shown.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are allegedly "wildly unhappy," but their marriage is not the biggest problem. A royal commentator recently claimed the couple was not happy during their time in California. He also stated the duo has different passions, which strain their relationship.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly clash over what makes them happy (via The Daily Beast). Founder of Celebrity Intelligence, cultural commentator Dan Wakeford, told The Royalist's Tom Sykes, "The 'wildly unhappy' came not from within their relationship in their life right now. It was their life in America they were wildly unhappy about."
"They were wildly unhappy with how things had gone, and they hadn't gone how they expected. I don't think they could find—think of a way out of that. And so it's very interesting," he added.
He further said that while the return to the UK has made Harry happier, the same is not true for Meghan Markle, a Los Angeles native. He explained, "The problem with this couple is you have two people with completely different goals in life and geographical, like, homes."
Wakeford said that according to his sources, the Sussexes are "very much in love," but they conflict on what true happiness looks like for either of them. "They're not on the same page with where they're going in life, whether that's living in England or living in America, whether that is philanthropy or a glamorous Hollywood lifestyle brand," he said.

A joke about an old romance has put Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson back in the headlines. The comedian is looking back on it with humor, while she, according to a source, is still sensitive about the subject. The source also says she has taken a firm stance on how she deals with Davidson, and it is not a "chapter of her life she's willing to discuss."
Pete Davidson, 32, recently spoke about his past with Kim Kardashian, calling himself "one of the survivors — the few and the proud." He went on to add, "We're like the Marines." The comedian also maintained that he still has "a lot of love" for the Skims founder, 45. Davidson also added that Kardashian respected his privacy, but the constant cameras were still too much for him. "I knew what I was getting into," he said.
Following his remarks on their brief relationship, a source close to Kardashian spoke to In Touch. The source said Kim remains "hyper sensitive" about Davidson. She has reportedly told people she won't discuss that chapter of her life and "would prefer if they didn't bring it up." The source drew a contrast with her marriage to Kanye West. Leaving West brought relief and freedom, the source said. Davidson ending their relationship, by comparison, brought "rejection and devastation."
According to the source, Davidson knows he hurt Kardashian and feels terrible about it. The source also claimed he is "genuinely happy" that she has moved on with someone else. He would nonetheless "love to build a friendship" with his ex, the source said. Kardashian, however, sees things differently. The source said she has chosen to "draw a firm line under the past" and has essentially banished Pete Davidson from her personal universe. "She wishes him the best," adds the source, "but doesn't need his apologies or friendship."
The source also described how deeply the breakup affected her. It reportedly "crushed her ego" and took a long time to process. The 45-year-old was said to be "madly in love" and convinced they had a future, even if the relationship was short.

Social Security is the retirement income lifeline for millions of Americans and garners its share of confusing headlines. From the full retirement age and cost-of-living adjustment to the rules for claiming benefits while still working, here is what's expected to change in 2027.
A common concern among those planning for retirement is an ever-increasing Social Security "full retirement age."
Geoffrey Schmidt, a certified public accountant and founder of Holy Schmidt!, a retirement education resource, told Yahoo Finance that many seniors ****** ume the full retirement age keeps climbing.
"It doesn't. It has finished its long, slow climb to 67. Anyone born in 1960 or later has a full retirement age of exactly 67, and that group reaches it in 2027," Schmidt said. "Under current law, it does not go any higher. So if you've been worried they'll keep moving the goalposts on you, at least on the retirement age, that increase is over."

Kim Kardashian has opened up about raising her four children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, as a single mother. During a new interview with The Sunday Times Style, the reality star admitted that she has five nannies, with one on duty and four on rotation, to help look after her kids due to her busy work schedule.
The SKIMS founder explained that she is always available to drop her children to school every day, pick them up, and eat dinner with them. "I think I am an intermediate-strict parent," she shared. "I'm extremely patient and loving. I still have a kid sleep in my bed when they want. I read books with the kids every night."
Kim also shared that she believes it's important to discuss privilege with her children. "It's something I talk to my kids about constantly, about hard work, never taking things for granted, always having gratitude," she said. "I lead by example. I'm really open with them about my work, all of the hard work that I put into my law studies, and they're proud. I think that you can have a big life and still have that spirit in you. But it is more challenging."

Meghan Markle is reportedly taking a strategic approach to As Ever's latest holiday launch after facing setbacks with previous products. The brand founder recently unveiled her first-ever Holiday Advent Calendar in collaboration with Compartés. Priced at $148, the festive box has reportedly generated excitement for Markle, though sources claim she is being particularly calculated with the new release.
Meghan Markle is reportedly "trying to be strategic" with the launch of As Ever's new Holiday Advent Calendar. The official As Ever page recently shared a photo of the festive box, captioning the post, "A little holiday magic is on its way. 24 days of sweet surprises, made for the joy of anticipation."
The Advent Calendar features 24 handcrafted chocolates housed in a designer box inspired by Markle's home and garden in Montecito. The holiday offering is a collaboration with Los Angeles-based chocolatier Compartes, with the chocolates incorporating flavors from As Ever's signature spreads, including strawberry, blackberry, raspberry, and orange marmalade.
Each piece also features a countdown number written in Markle's handwriting and is hand-painted with edible gold **** er. For now, the Advent Calendar is available exclusively for pre-order. A source told Star Magazine that Markle is a fan of delicious, high-quality chocolate.
However, the source noted that advent calendars often contain chocolate that is not particularly high quality. With her latest offering, Markle allegedly believes she has created something "beautiful and festive."

Aubrey O'Day doubts that being in prison will be effective for her former label head, Diddy.
With reports surfacing that the Bad Boy Records founder, real name Sean Combs, will once again have his prison release pushed up, this time to January 2028, O'Day also reacted to allegations that he's living a pampered life behind bars. According to what several former Fort Dix inmates told NBC News, the 56-year-old has paid to be cleaned and cooked for, along with getting massages.
"Thank you, Chloe [Melas] for doing this investigation," the vocalist posted on X in response to the story. "People should understand the difference between rehabilitation and a ****** vacation. The system is broken- this man will come back a worse criminal."
