A GRAND National-winning trainer is being tipped to land a ‘famous gamble’ after his 20-1 outsider was hammered into 5-1 favourite.

Emmet Mullins landed the 2022 Aintree feature with Noble Yeats at an awesome 50-1.

But This Songisforyou appeared to slip through the net, being 20-1 for Saturday’s Cambridgeshire race at Newmarket just last week.

Now the six-year-old gelding has been smashed off the boards for mega 35-runner handicap over 1m1f – and worth more than £90,000 to the winner.

This Songisforyou was a comfortable winner of a premier handicap at the Curragh in Ireland a fortnight ago.

The lightly raced six-year-old was sent off 9-1 for that assignment, his first win – but only fourth run – since winning a Clonmel race a year before.

Punters clearly saw something they liked in This Songisforyou and his price has come right in ever since.

Coral’s David Stevens said: “This Songisforyou was a 20-1 outsider last week, and his price has collapsed dramatically, to the point where he has now overtaken Roi De France at the head of the market.

“His many backers will be hoping the recent Curragh winner can land a famous Cambridgeshire gamble this weekend.”

Five-time Irish champion jockey Colin Keane gets the ride on the horse, whose career earnings have already gone over the £100,000 mark.

Ex-Fulham star Palhinha splits from pregnant wife just months after Bayern Munich transfer as she ditches wedding ring

BAYERN MUNICH midfielder Joao Palhinha has reportedly split from his pregnant wife just months after his move to Germany.

Portugal international Palhinha, 29, signed for the Bundesliga giants in the summer in a deal worth £47.5million.

But he has struggled for game time under Vincent Kompany, starting just one of their opening six games in all competitions.

And reports are suggesting he is also enduring off-field issues with his singer wife Patricia Palhares, 27.

The couple have been together for five years and married in 2021.

Patricia gave birth to their son Joao Maria, 1, in October 2022 and they are expecting a second child.

However, Patricia has deleted all photos of her and Palhinha on Instagram and posted pregnancy snaps without the Fulham man, leading to reports they have split.

According to Bild, Palhinha recently posted images of him with his mum, Susana, on a private Instagram account and had no wedding ring on.

Neither Palhinha or Patricia have made comment on reports of a separation.

TV presenter Maya said on the Portuguese show Noite das Estrelas: “I know there was no betrayal on either side.”

She went on to add that the “wear and tear” of the relationship was the reason for the split.

Palhinha spoke earlier this month about not having started Bayern‘s first three games of the season.

He told TZ, he said: “I wasn’t disappointed [to be left on the bench].

“I’m at the best club in the world. It’s part of a process. I can be proud.”

People love Prince Harry but hate the woman he loves – Meghan had everything in her hands but ruined it

TENSIONS have been running high within the royal family since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped back as senior royals.

However, a PR expert has claimed that it’s not Prince Harry that some people have a problem with.

Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, Mark Borkowski claimed “people still love Harry, they still like him. 

“That’s a problem. 

“Their problem is they don’t like the woman he loves.”

News.com.au’s royal reporter Bronte Coy agreed, saying: “He was Britain’s favourite son, their cheeky son, and so popular. 

“It’s only been a few years since he left, though it feels like a lot longer. 

“But I think people still hold great affection for him, even though they never really knew her [Meghan]. 

“They didn’t even know her as a royal really, as it was such a short period.”

Mark argued that there was a huge “outpouring of love for her” initially as “people felt he [Harry] had found someone fairly late in life, at least in terms of royal standards where they sort of get married off early.”

Bronte agreed saying Meghan was given a “rock star welcome” during her first royal tour to Australia in 2018.

She added: “You cannot imagine a more rock star welcome for anyone short of the Queen, the late Queen.

“The outpouring of love, the crowds that were there, and of and of all ages.

“She was very loved in that period.”

IMAGE SHIFT

However, Mark claimed that Meghan was so used to Hollywood life that she was at odds with royal life.

The PR expert added: “Of course, when you come from Hollywood and the star system, when you’re used to being on the red carpet for X, Y, and Z, making sure you’ve got your table in restaurants and that you’re seen around, they weren’t the premier act.

“Actually, in some ways, being the spare turned out to be an advantage for him. 

“While his ‘Spare’ narrative portrayed him as saying ‘poor me, I was the spare, I was bullied by my brother’ and all that nonsense, being the spare was a huge advantage.”

ROYAL SNUB

After tying the knot in 2018, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced in 2020 they would be stepping down as senior working royals and would be relocating across the pond.

Prince Harry has since criticised his family in his bombshell Oprah Winfrey chat in 2021, where he opened up about feeling trapped within the institution.

He also claimed he and Meghan weren’t given the support they needed within the royal family.

The Duke of Sussex also ruffled feathers releasing his tell-all memoir Spare and doing his Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan, which also revealed information about his family.

Harry’s family attacks since stepping down could have affected how the public see him.

PUBLIC OPINION

In two new YouGov polls commissioned by The Times on either side of the Atlantic, it was discovered that just 26 per cent of the British public have a positive view of Prince Harry, compared to 62 per cent having a negative view.

However, the study found Prince Harry is far more popular Stateside than in the UK.

Over in the States, 49 per cent of US citizens had a positive view of Harry, 24 per cent reported a negative view. 

Prince William was the most popular royal on both sides of the pond, with a 75 per cent positive rate in the UK and 54 per cent in the US.

Meanwhile, Princess Kate had a 74 per cent positive view in the UK, compared to 43 per cent in the US.

A timeline of Prince Harry's family feud

The first hints of friction reportedly came after William was introduced to Meghan when she was staying at Kensington Palace.

Once she’d returned home to Canada, William and Harry sat down for a brother-to-brother chat.

He knew Harry was already head-over-heels for her but it has been claimed he advised him to take it slowly.

The younger prince reportedly didn’t take too kindly to the advice, with one royal source saying he “went mental”.

Then in June 2019 Harry and Meghan officially split off from the charity they shared with William and Kate.

The Royal Foundation will be divided between the Sussexes and Cambridges as the couples focus on their own separate charitable endeavours.

Prince William and Prince Harry first established the Royal Foundation in 2009 before Kate joined two years later shortly after their engagement was announced.

The trio would often appear together at events and the Foundation had huge successes with projects like the Invictus Games for injured veterans and the mental health Heads Together campaign.

The Royal Foundation said the decision was made following the conclusion of a review into its structure – but added both couples will continue to work together in the future.

Harry and Meg were living in close proximity to Kate and Wills within the Kensington Palace estate, but they switched to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor before baby Archie was born.

The move further increased rumours of a fallout.

Harry also hinted in his ITV documentary “Harry and Meghan, An African Journey” that he and his brother had grown apart.

In 2021, Harry and Meghan give their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Harry accused his dad of cutting him off financially.

Harry then jetted back to UK to join William in unveiling a statue to their mother Princess Diana in the grounds of Kensington Palace. But sources claimed William didn’t want to attend the memorial amid their ongoing rift.

In 2022, just before their grandmother the Queen died, sources claimed Kate acts as a “peacemaker” between the brothers.

Harry claimed his brother “knocked him to the floor” during an argument about Meghan, in his memoir.

In Spare, Harry said William branded Meghan “rude” and “difficult” during a row.

Harry alleged William “grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and … knocked me to the floor”.

He said he was left with a visible injury to his back following the argument in 2019 at Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace, where he was living at the time.

In January this year, Harry flew in to be with Charles after the monarch’s shock cancer diagnosis.

Harry flew back to the US the following day – without seeing Wills. 

In May he visited the UK for a three-day visit without seeing King Charles or Prince William.

Married At First Sight’s Richelle hits back after quitting show and reveals reason she walked off – and it wasn’t Orson

MARRIED At First Sight’s Richelle has revealed the real reason she quit the show.

The 48-year-old, who tied the knot with groom Orson Nurse, 41, became the second bride to walk away from the show in just its first week.

Richelle had already told Orson his ‘sob story’ about being cheated on had turned her off

She has kept tight-lipped on her departure but a critical comment on an Instagram post about her skincare routine sparked her into life.

Responding to a viewer who mocked her leaving in tears after hitting out at Orson’s “sob story”, Richelle replied: “I’m so glad someone brought this up, been dying to speak on that.”

Setting the record straight, she continued: “My personal ‘sob story’ had nothing whatsoever to do with him or relationship heartbreak.

“In reality I was upset with production for trying to get me to talk on camera about unresolved family issues that I specifically said I wasn’t willing to spk about. Why? Because its not entertainment fodder and that is the reason I left so yea thanks for bringing up.

“They did both of us dirty with that edit x.”

Admitting her time with Orson wasn’t all glum faces and rows, she continued: “We did have some good times together during the honeymoon but they were hellbent on creating drama out of nowhere which was exhausting.

“I was just so out of my comfort zone tbh but tried to get into it when I went bk in. The whole experience was just wild tbh lol x.”

The experiment got too much for Richelle during a conversation with ‘husband’ Orson on their last day in Mauritius.

Richelle had asked to spend time apart, but when they reunited in the evening the tension between them hadn’t eased.

Before she could get her words out she began to cry, and said: “I think I’m done here guys”.

Richelle thought she spotted ‘red flags’ in Orson when he revealed he had been cheated on five years ago and said he wasn’t quite over it.

She also felt that he wasn’t being genuine with her when he said he had feelings for her after meeting only a few days before.

Born in Ghana, before moving to the UK aged 2, Richelle is the head of alternative markets for an investment company.

She also has a degree in politics and worked as a business consultant for many years.

Mum to a 20-year-old daughter, whom she lives with, Richelle said she was now on the lookout for a life partner to feel complete.

Orson appeared to be a good match on paper as the high-flying businesswoman said she was looking for a man who is fit, funny and financially independent.

Mafs couples that have stood the test of time

Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.

The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.

Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.

Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.

Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”

Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.

Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.

“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.

“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’

“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”

Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.

Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.

They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.

Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
