Three key bowel cancer signs that are often missed after Mel Schilling's death

There are three crucial warning signs of a potentially fatal illness to watch for that aren't related to lavatory habits. These are some less widely recognised symptoms of bowel cancer. Bowel cancer ranks among the most lethal forms of the disease in the UK, accounting for approximately 17,700 deaths annually. It has also featured prominently in the news this week following the death of Mel Schilling, renowned for the programme Married at First Sight, at the age of 54. Mel received her diagnosis in 2023 and earlier this month revealed to followers that the cancer had subsequently spread to her lungs and then the left side of her brain. Following her passing, Genevieve Edwards, chief executive of Bowel Cancer UK, said: "We are deeply saddened to hear of Mel Schilling's death and send our heartfelt condolences to her family and loved ones. "Mel's courage in speaking so openly about bowel cancer, from her diagnosis through to treatment and everything in between, has already made a profound difference. By sharing her story, she has helped raise vital awareness and encouraged countless people to listen to their bodies and contact their GP when something doesn't feel right. That message has the power to save lives. "Every 12 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with bowel cancer, making it the UK's fourth most common cancer. If you're experiencing symptoms of bowel cancer like bleeding from your bottom, blood in your poo or a change in your pooing habits, please contact your GP to ask for an at-home test."

Symptoms of bowel cancer Bowel cancer can affect anyone, regardless of your age, gender, ethnicity or location. Symptoms can include: Bleeding from your bottom Blood in your poo A change in your pooing habits. You might be going more or less often, or have diarrhoea or constipation that might come and go However, there are some other warning signs that don't involve your toilet habits. According to Bowel Cancer UK these are: Unexplained weight loss Persistent extreme tiredness without obvious cause A pain or lump in your tummy The charity stated: "Having these symptoms doesn't always mean you have bowel cancer, but it's still important to find out what's causing them."

Weight loss Bowel Cancer UK stated: "Speak to your GP if you have lost weight and you don't know why. You may not feel like eating if you feel sick, bloated or if you just don't feel hungry." Feeling very tired all the time "If you are feeling very tired all the time (fatigue) but don't know why, it is important to speak with your GP so they can help you find the cause," the charity explained. "This tiredness may be caused by a lack of healthy red blood cells in the body, known as anaemia. "If you have anaemia, you are likely to feel very tired and your skin may look pale." Pain or lump in your tummy The statement read: "It's important to know what feels normal for you, as not everyone will experience the same symptoms, or they may have different symptoms at different times. If things don't feel right or you notice a change in what's normal for you, visit your GP as soon as you can. "Sometimes, a tumour can block the bowel. This can cause sudden and strong pains in the stomach area, bloating and make you feel or be sick. This is called a bowel obstruction. You may also be unable to poo or pass wind." If you experience any symptoms of bowel cancer, it's crucial to consult your GP immediately. The NHS further advises that you should request an urgent GP appointment or seek help from NHS 111 if your poo is black or dark red, or you have bloody diarrhoea.

Woman pleads not guilty to attempted murder of Rihanna

A woman charged with the attempted murder of Rihanna following a shooting at the singer's home has pleaded not guilty.

Ivanna Lisette Ortiz, of Orlando, Florida, is accused of opening fire on the property in Los Angeles when the singer and her hip-hop star partner A$AP Rocky, as well as their three young children and others, were home on 8 March.

Ortiz is charged with one count of attempted murder in relation to Rihanna, 10 counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and three counts of shooting at an occupied vehicle or dwelling. Through her attorney, she also pleaded not guilty to the other counts at Los Angeles Superior Court. The 35-year-old faces life in prison if convicted on all charges. She has been jailed on $1.8m (about £1.35m) bail. Her lawyer, deputy public defender Derek Ray Dillman, spoke in court as Ortiz appeared behind glass in a custody area, wearing yellow prison clothes with her blonde hair in braids. She spoke only to agree to waive her right to a speedy preliminary hearing, the next phase of the case where evidence is presented to determine whether a trial is warranted. District Attorney Nathan Hochman previously said Rihanna and Rocky were in an Airstream trailer at the time of the shooting, while her mother, their children and staff members were in the main house. No one was injured in the incident, police said. About 20 shots were fired at the house, located in the Beverly Crest neighbourhood of LA. The prosecutor, Deputy District Attorney Alexander Bott said: "This case involves a dangerous, deliberate shooting into occupied homes. This is the kind of conduct that could easily have resulted in multiple homicides." When Ortiz was arrested hours afterwards, she was alone in her car with the rifle, more rounds and a wig she intended to use as a disguise, Bott said. Public records show Ortiz has been a licensed speech pathologist for more than a decade. Rihanna is a nine-time Grammy winner with 14 number ones hits in the US and nine in the UK, including We Found Love, Umbrella, What's My Name and Diamonds. She is also the founder of make-up brand Fenty Beauty.

2 sisters were s£xually assaulted by their brothers, father, and grandfather as mother helped the abusers

2 sisters were s£xually assaulted by their brothers, father, and grandfather as mother helped the abusers

Two minor sisters were s£xually abused by three generations of men in their family. Six members of a U.K. family have been sentenced in connection with the s£xual assault of the sisters, both under the age 16 and one of them under 13, in the southeastern British county of Sussex. The victims' grandfather, father, uncle, brothers and mother were convicted last year of 39 offenses including r@pe and s£xual assault, Sussex Police said in a statement at the time. The investigation began when one of the victims opened up to her schoolteacher in January 2025, Sussex Police said in their statement this week. The child gave examples of "r@pe and serious s£xual assault" she was suffering at the hands of her father, grandfather and two brothers. Her younger sister then reported assault, neglect and child cruelty in their home. The family members were convicted on a total 39 offenses following a trial in September 2025, Sussex Police said in their statement at the time. Sussex police said in their statement on Monday, Feb. 9, that after the abuse was reported, the family tried to bully the victims into recanting their accusations — but they were unsuccessful. “This case has involved harrowing details of how the defendants abused the trust of both young victims. Their home should have been a place of love and support, but was in fact a place the victims feared," Detective Superintendent Andrew Harbour said in the statement this week. “The defendants preyed on that fear and hoped it would silence them. But the victims’ voices have been heard," Harbour added. The children's father, 43, was convicted of five counts of r@pe and five other counts of s£xual assault relating to a child under 13. He was sentenced to 28 years in prison. Their 70-year-old grandfather was convicted of three counts of s£xual assault of a child under the age of 13; he was sentenced to nine years behind bars. Their brothers, ages 24 and 21, were each convicted of several s£xual assault offenses, including four counts of r@pe each. The younger brother was sentenced to nine and a half years, while the 24-year-old had three and a half years added to an existing sentence he is serving. It was not immediately clear whether that prior conviction is related to this case. The children's 43-year-old mother was convicted of child cruelty, false imprisonment and convicted of perverting the course of justice, which landed her a sentence of ten and a half years. The children's uncle, who was also convicted of perverting the course of justice, has been sentenced to three years.
