Chef and television personality Gordon Ramsay told Fox News Digital that the single most important lesson he has taught his six children is good manners, calling them “the most important thing in life, but they cost zero.” The remarks were made during media appearances surrounding FOX’s 2026 upfronts and were reported by People, Fox News and other outlets on May 24–25, 2026. Ramsay, 59, and his wife Tana are parents to Megan (28), twins Jack (26) and Holly (26), Matilda “Tilly” (24), Oscar (7) and Jesse (2). He said manners, respect and avoiding entitlement are non-negotiables at home, and has previously described encouraging his children to carve their own paths — from the military and policing to fashion and culinary school — rather than relying on family wealth. Published coverage also noted Ramsay’s wider media footprint, including multiple renewed TV shows, and past comments that he prefers using wealth to help children with milestones like house deposits rather than leaving direct inheritances.

Disney’s The Mandalorian and Grogu debuted over the U.S. Memorial Day weekend with an estimated $165 million in global ticket sales, Walt Disney said, including about $102 million from the United States and Canada. Studio and industry tallies showed the film earned roughly $82 million from Friday through Sunday from some 4,300 North American screens, with strong walk-up family business lifting the four-day total. The opening ranks as the smallest for any Star Wars title released by Disney but is aided by a significantly lower production budget (around $165 million) than recent franchise tentpoles. Audience response was robust — exit polling and Rotten Tomatoes audience scores ran far higher than critical ratings — boosting hopes for sustained box-office legs and merchandising sales. Other holiday releases included Focus Features’ Obsession at roughly $22–28 million in its second weekend and the Michael Jackson biopic continuing strong. Disney is positioning the film as both a theatrical product and a way to reinvigorate franchise interest for streaming, theme parks and consumer products ahead of next year’s Starfighter release.

The BBC has begun airing Dear England, a four-part television adaptation of James Graham’s Olivier-winning stage play chronicling Gareth Southgate’s stewardship of the England men’s football team. Episodes began on May 24, 2026 on BBC One and streaming via iPlayer; subsequent instalments are scheduled across the following week and weekend. Joseph Fiennes reprises the title role from the stage production, joined by Jodie Whittaker as team psychologist Pippa Grange and Jason Watkins as former FA figure Greg Dyke, supported by an ensemble cast portraying high-profile players. The screen transfer retains theatrical devices — including use of archive match footage and stylised stage-derived presentation — and credits directors Rupert Goold and Paul Whittington. Early audience reaction on social media praised Fiennes’s physical likeness to Southgate, while critics offered mixed reviews: some lauded the emotional arc and ensemble performances, others, notably The Guardian, criticised Fiennes’s portrayal as bordering on caricature. The series frames Southgate’s efforts to rebuild team culture after penalty-shootout trauma and explores broader social questions about identity and inclusivity in English football.

One day after taping the final episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the comedian surprised viewers by guest-hosting Only in Monroe, a community-access programme in Monroe, Michigan. Colbert’s hourlong appearance aired on Friday, May 22, 2026, after his CBS farewell the night before (May 21). The broadcast leaned into local jokes and featured Michigan-linked guests: Jack White acted as a volunteer “music director,” Jeff Daniels joined for on-air bits, and pre-taped cameos included Steve Buscemi and Eminem, who playfully signed off as the show’s “fire marshal” before Colbert and guests dismantled and burned the set. Colbert FaceTimed Byron Allen, whose syndicated Comics Unleashed will fill the 11:35 p.m. CBS slot. The stunt picked up the thread of a line from Colbert’s final Late Show monologue, in which he quipped he might next be seen on Monroe public access. The appearance drew widespread media coverage and online buzz, and the episode was later made available beyond the local broadcast via streaming clips.

Noel Gallagher, 58, was photographed leaving a West London pub on May 24, 2026, with 28‑year‑old events and marketing manager Nina Johnson, prompting tabloid reports of a new relationship. Sources quoted by The Sun and reproduced in Metro and the Daily Mail said the pair spent several hours together and appeared ‘‘smitten’’ despite their roughly 30‑year age gap. Photographs show the two smiling as they left the venue and entered a waiting car. The sighting comes two months after Gallagher’s split from his girlfriend Sally Marsh in March 2026, and follows his high‑profile divorce from music publicist Sara MacDonald finalised in 2023. Media outlets report Johnson was introduced to Gallagher through mutual friends; representatives for Gallagher and Johnson were contacted but no formal comment has been published. Coverage so far is based on onlooker accounts and images obtained by tabloid outlets, and the story is being reported as a developing celebrity item rather than a confirmed long‑term relationship.
