Kevin Maguire, Gillian Keegan, Ed Balls and Susanna Reid discuss female athletes criticism of Sydney Sweeney’s nude ad campaign for a sports betting company. The Euphoria actress, 29, posed naked with footballs, a tennis racket, a baseball and hockey stick in the ad campaign for Novig. The advert has received pushback from several female athletes, who felt it was “sexualising women’s sport”. Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan's children have started their first full day at a new school on Tuesday following security concerns over their journey to and from the previous choice, ITV News understands. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex removed Prince Archie, seven, and five-year-old Princess Lilibet from their prep school days into the new school year, a spokesperson for the couple confirmed on Monday.
