Thomas Brodie-Sangster, known for his role in Love Actually, married actress Talulah Riley on June 22. This is the first marriage for Thomas and the third one for Talulah.
The couple, who had been dating for two years before announcing their engagement in July 2023, looked very much in love as they emerged from St George’s Church in Anstey, Hertfordshire. This isn’t Talulah Riley’s first marriage; she previously wed Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk twice. They first married in 2010, divorced in 2012, remarried in 2013, and then divorced again.
According to tabloids, the couple’s wedding included some fun surprises. Riley arrived at the church in a horse-drawn carriage, and another horse, adorned with white roses in its mane, arrived soon after. An onlooker mentioned that the horse acted as a bridesmaid, a surprise arranged by Brodie-Sangster. Riley looked delighted when she saw it.
Though Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Talulah Riley have kept their relationship relatively private, Riley opened up about falling in love with Brodie-Sangster in a May 2022 interview. She described how their bond grew while filming Pistol and eventually turned romantic. Riley shared that they hadn’t considered each other as a romantic possibility until the same moment several months into their friendship, leading to the start of their romantic relationship. Riley is known for her roles in Westworld, Pride & Prejudice, and Inception.
Thomas Brodie-Sangster played 13-year-old Jojen Reed in Game of Thrones when he was 23. When he was 13 in real life, he portrayed Sam in Love Actually.
Animal rescued from the cold looks like a hairless cat — you’ll never guess what it really is
For many animals, fur is essential because it offers much-needed insulation from the cold. Additionally, it gives them their unique appearances; there are some creatures that you might not even identify when they are fully bald.
A more rarer critter that resembles a hairless cat was just taken up by rescuers. Continue reading to find out more about this unusual species and her improbable survival.
The strangest animal was adopted by Hope for Wildlife, a charitable conservation organization in Nova Scotia, last month. A couple in West Arichat found the animal, suffering in the cold, in their backyard, according to the Canadian Press.
The creature appears to be a Sphynx cat at first glance, but it’s actually a fully hairless raccoon!
Without their distinctive fur pattern that resembles a mask, raccoons are definitely difficult to identify. This small animal, a northern raccoon, suffers from severe alopecia, which has left it entirely bald.
There have been examples of balding raccoons in the past, but nothing like this, according to the rescue: “It’s just tufts of fur around the snout, ankles and feet.” The Canadian Press was informed by Hope Swinimer, director of Hope for Wildlife, that the situation was serious.
Despite being female, the raccoon has been named Rufus in honor of the character from the Kim Possible cartoon who is a naked mole rat.
The rescue said on Facebook that they are still in the process of diagnosing the reason for her hair loss and that it might be an autoimmune condition causing harm to her hair follicles. Not only did they rule out fungal infections, mange, and parasites, but they also noted that her skin looked healthy.
Since raccoons rely on their fur to remain warm and shield their skin from the weather, Rufus’s survival for this extended period of time astounded the rescuers.
“We are astonished that this small lady survived the winter without fur and without getting frostbite or worse!” the Facebook post stated.
They went on to say that she was “her own doing” and that she had a “feisty” personality. Nevertheless, given that she was apparently “down and out upon arrival,” it appears that she was saved just in time.
For a few brief hours, we were in a panic, but then she became hungry and came out. We’ve noticed a significant change since she first came, and she’s becoming really feisty now, Swinimer told The Canadian Press.
Given the situation, Rufus may end up staying at the shelter permanently. In addition to having a dedicated habitat, an outside area with a place to crawl into for warmth, and other facilities like hammocks and nesting boxes, Rufus will have all of these.
We’ve never before seen a raccoon without hair! Rufus’s prolonged survival in the wild is amazing, and we’re happy that she was discovered and is receiving quality care.
