Very much enjoyed the men's pole vault at the Diamond League athletics in Lausanne. At the end they lined all the athletes up and presented them each with a massive wedge of Gruyere 🧀

I'm really quite emotional watching the tennis from Queens right now. That, there, playing with your Canadian teenage prodigy Victoria Mboko, is Serena fucking Williams! 44. 4 years retired. And back playing a professional match. What an absolute joy to see her play again. ❤️🎾 #SerenaWilliams

LOVING #Madonna playing live to a packed Times Square. It’s like she saw Rachel Zegler on the balcony of the Palladium and said “ Hold my beer!” ❤️

In his retirement year and potentially last ever match at #RolandGarros #Monfils has just come back from 2 sets to love down to level at 2 sets all late into the Paris night. Could he be about to pull off yet another of his 5 set comebacks and live another round? I wouldn’t bet against it... Allez!

#RaceAcrossTheWorld continues to be the TV show with the most heart. And these boys! They're absolute stars. Such wonderful memories on tonight's episode of travel through Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, I'm yearning to explore more of beautiful Central Asia. #StanTheStans

I am pleased to see that the #Sanremo running order provided for journalists to follow the show contains not just information on who’s performing next but also when the presenter is due to change her frock 👗 #Sanremo2026

I missed the first night of #Sanremo2026 yesterday as I was flying back from Bangkok so all the approximately 79 hours of interstitial content per show is still a fresh novelty to me this evening. How long it survives the jet lag though…
