Today is National Slow Down Day.

An Garda Síochána is conducting a national speed enforcement operation supported by the Road Safety Authority for a 24 hour period from 7am on Monday September 4 until 7am on Tuesday September 5, 2023.

The aim of National Slow Down Day is to remind drivers of the dangers of speeding, to increase compliance of drivers to stay within speed limits and to act as a deterrent to driving at excessive speeds.

During the first two hours of National Slow Down Day today, 15,786 vehicles had their speed checked and 50 drivers were caught speeding.

The highest speed so far was a driver going 155km/h in a 120km/h Zone on the M6 Killavally Tyrrellspass Westmeath.

So far this year, there have been 127 deaths on Irish roads, which is 23 more than the same period in 2022, and 38 more than the same period in 2019.

Tragically, 1 in 3 (43) of all deaths so far this year were younger people that were under the age 25.

Approximately 1 in 4 (30) of all deaths this year were passengers in vehicles.

1 in 5 (25) of all deaths so far in 2023 took place during the month of August alone.

Assistant Commissioner Paula Hilman, Roads Policing and Community Engagement released a statement that reads, “The trauma on our roads so far in 2023 is and will have lasting impacts on families and communities. An Garda Síochána continues to carry out speed enforcement across our roads”.

“Every driver has a personal responsibility to not only drive within the posted speed limit but also to drive at a speed appropriate to the conditions”.

She continued, “Speeding is reckless, not just to the motorists themselves and their passengers, but to all road users, especially vulnerable pedestrians and cyclists. This is not just about speeding enforcement detections. It's about saving lives”.

“I’m appealing to all road users to support us in our efforts to keep everybody safe on our roads.  Please slow down, check your speed, drive safely, not only on National Slow Down Day, but every day”.

An Garda Síochána continues to appeal to drivers to comply with speed limits in order to reduce the number of speed related collisions, save lives and reduce injuries on Irish roads.

Joe Jonas has seemingly responded to rumours he’s getting a divorce.

Yesterday, it was reported that the Jonas Brothers singer had ‘retained a divorce laywer’ for his marriage to Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner.

According to outlets such as TMZ and People, the couple have been experiencing ‘problems’ for a while and have been heading towards a separation. Joe had also recently been spotted out in public without wearing his wedding ring.

While neither Joe nor Sophie have released an official comment on their marriage, it seems as though the Sucker hitmaker has made a subtle response to the rumours.

Joe is currently on tour with his brothers and bandmates, Nick Jonas and Kevin Jonas, as part of their ‘The Tour’ concerts.

At their performance in Texas last night, the 34-year-old could clearly be seen wearing his wedding band throughout the concert.

Photos of Joe on stage with his ring on quickly began to circulate on social media, and fans have since been responding to the singer’s quiet message.

“A tiny bit of hope to get me through the day,” one fan penned on Twitter.

“Good, great, I hope they work things out,” another wished.

“Yess I really need the Joe and Sophie news to be fake pls,” a third fan wrote.

Joe and Sophie first met in October 2016, when the Camp Rock actor chose to approach his future wife through Instagram. One year later, the pair were engaged.

In May 2019, Joe and Sophie chose to elope in Las Vegas, with just Joe’s brothers as witnesses. One month later, they celebrated their marriage with family and friends during a stunning ceremony in France. 

In July 2020, 27-year-old Sophie gave birth to the couple’s first child together. After welcoming their daughter into the world, Joe and Sophie became parents again in July of last year, when their second baby girl was born.

The Strays actress announced her son’s arrival on social media and described him as ‘pure bliss’.

Ashley posted a carousel of photos from throughout her pregnancy with her blossoming baby bump on display to her 585K Instagram followers. 

The last snap in the collection of beautiful pictures is of her newborn son’s tiny feet. 

The 39-year-old captioned the sweet post, “I loved holding him inside my body and I already miss it”.

She continued, “But now he is here and to actually hold him in my arms is pure bliss. There’s nothing like it”.

Many celebrities and fans of the Revenge actress flooded the comments with congratulatory messages.

Faye Brookes has finally shared details of her beautiful Cotswolds wedding!

The Coronation Street actress, best known for her role as Kate Connor, married Iwan Lewis last month after 10 months of dating.

The couple, who first met in 2007 and later went on to star in Legally Blonde together on stage, tied the knot on August 23.

Now, almost two weeks on, Faye and Iwan have opened up to OK! about their whirlwind day.

The newlyweds held their ceremony at a church in Gloucestershire, near where they live. However, the couple admitted that not everything ran smoothly on their big day, as theatre actor Iwan recalled that their organist didn’t show up. 

“The brilliance is when you’re in the theatre industry you’ve got a lot of musically talented friends. So, Francis Goodhand, who is a wonderful musical director in the world of musical theatre, who also taught us in drama school, stepped up to the plate,” he praised.

The 34-year-old groom also detailed that he crumbled as Faye walked up the aisle.

“I was as cool as a cucumber and kept going up to people saying, ‘My hand is so steady.’ But as soon as she started coming down the aisle I could feel the energy build and I couldn’t hold it together at all,” Iwan teased.

Faye went on to add: “I was overcome with emotion when my dad gave me away and seeing Iwan cry as well. It is a rare moment to see him cry.”

The lovebirds held their reception in a marquee, attended by both Corrie and musical theatre stars. Speaking about the future, Faye revealed that she has legally changed her name.

“I’m changing my name and I’m no longer going to be known as Faye Brookes,” she announced.

“Not a lot of people in the industry do this, but I’m so proud and so excited to see what could come of that idea of introducing myself to the world as Faye Alicia Lewis – which is now my full name,” she exclaimed, hinting that the couple have “a lot of business ideas”.

The Script have paid an emotional tribute to their late bandmate.

The Irish band’s lead guitarist and co-founder, Mark Sheehan, tragically passed away on April 14 following a brief illness.

A few months on from the 46-year-old’s death, the band have chosen to honour him during their recent homecoming shows.

Over the weekend, the remaining members of The Script – Danny O’Donoghue and Glen Power – took to the stage with their band at Electric Picnic.

During their set, lead singer Danny chose to pay tribute to the band’s late member.

“Earlier on this year, we lost our brother Mark Sheehan, guitarist from The Script – not just a guitarist, a best mate,” he spoke to the crowd.

“It’s f***ing mad, man. You never realise what you have until it’s gone, and it just makes me want to live life to the fullest and just take in all of these moments,” Danny continued, getting emotional on stage.

The 42-year-old went on to thank their fanbase for their support.

“We’re musicians at the end of the day. We hurt the same, and I just want to say thank you so much to anybody who has been playing the music, or just remembering Mark,” he praised.

“You’ve really just been getting us through this entire time. Music is the one true religion for me, it always has been,” The Man Who Can’t Be Moved hitmaker confessed.

Danny concluded his speech by admitting a heartbreaking truth about Mark.

“I’d love to sing him a song now. Honestly, he was dying to do Electric Picnic. Like I said, this was going to be the last gig we were going to be doing,” he shared, before confirming: “This song is called If You Could See Me Now."

On April 14, the band announced that Mark had sadly died earlier that day.

“Much loved husband, father, brother, band mate and friend Mark Sheehan passed away today in hospital after a brief illness. The family and group ask fans to respect their privacy at this tragic time,” they penned at the time.

Autumn is finally here!

For those of us who are fans of the autumnal season, it’s time for us to crack open our wardrobes, treat ourselves to some seasonal drinks and prepare for the colder weather.

With autumn weather, one of our favourite staples to keep in our wardrobes is cardigans. The temperatures are usually not cold enough just yet to break out our winter coats and scarves, but it’s also not warm enough to just float around in short sleeves.
