Anthony Gordon leaves Newcastle training in never-before-seen £190,000 car as fans say ‘looks like an armoured vehicle’
ANTHONY GORDON has reportedly been seen leaving Newcastle training in a never-before-seen car.
The winger has enjoyed a positive start to the season, during which he was called up to the England team by interim boss Lee Carsley.
Gordon, 23, has made four appearances in the Premier League for the Magpies, scoring one goal this campaign.
He was thought to be seen leaving the club’s Darsley Park training ground in a brand-new car.
The vehicle has gathered plenty of attention due to the size of the EV Hummer.
The car is the first of its kind to arrive in the UK after being made in the US.
The £190,000 car appears to be huge in size and weighs a massive 4500 kilograms.
Despite its hefty weight, the vehicle has plenty of power, with 1000 horsepower that can get it from 0-60 in just three seconds.
A video of Gordon’s apparent car has gone viral on social media, with fans flocking to comment.
One posted: “This is classy. Gordon with the steeze.”

A second wrote: “That’s quite a ride for Gordon—definitely making a statement!:”
A third commented: “That’s unbelievable.”
However, some fans were not keen on the vehicle.
One said: “Ugliest Vehicle I’ve ever seen.”
A second joked: “Looks like an armoured vehicle.”
Another added: “It appears Anthony Gordon has decided to join the 101st airborne division.”
Gordon is reportedly set to be offered a new contract at Newcastle after impressing since his arrival from Everton in 2023.
He was linked with a move to Liverpool during the summer transfer window but a transfer did not materialise.

Celeb SAS star John Barrowman reveals he ‘planned own suicide’ after being ‘cancelled’ and sacked from Dancing On Ice
JOHN Barrowman – the cheeky chap face of reality TV – has heartbreakingly told how he “planned his own suicide” after being sacked from Dancing On Ice.
The former Strictly Come Dancing star – who scooped the Christmas show Glitterball in 2010 – has given a candid account of his state of mind after being the subject of allegations of sexual misconduct.
In May 2021, it was confirmed that John, 57, had been removed from a Doctor Who show after he was accused of exposing himself on the BBC drama’s sets.
Glasgow-born John promptly apologised for his antics – which were described as “high- spirited behaviour, larking about and tomfoolery.”
Witnesses described the flashing as inappropriate pranks, not sexually predatory behaviour, yet he was sacked from Dancing On Ice following the rumours in October 2021 and promptly “cancelled.”
He had only joined the show in 2019, to replace judge Jason Gardiner.
John has now told how losing his job had a hard-hitting impact on his mental health and bravely said: “I had thoughts of suicide, going out and trying to do certain things and harm myself, and a couple of times debating how I was going to kill myself.
“The thing was I couldn’t do it because of my family and friends.”
John married husband Scott Gill in Palm Springs in 2013.
Talking of the troubling situation he added to MirrorOnline: “I lost a lot of trust in other people after what I went through because people that I thought would’ve been there for me, ran.
“And a lot of them put themselves on the moral high ground and, to be honest with you, people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.”
Talking of the lack of backing from those around him, he then said: “I’ve always been there for people. No matter if you come to me and I might not have seen you in five to 10 years and you need help with something, I’m there to help you.
“And that was the big realisation: a lot of people don’t give a s**t.”
John, who came seventh in the first ever Dancing On Ice series at the time said his remarks were “only ever intended in good humour” and never meant to be sexual in nature.
At the time, he noted: “With the benefit of hindsight, I understand that upset may have been caused by my exuberant behaviour and I have apologised for this previously.

You're Not Alone
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide
It doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You’re Not Alone.
If you, or anyone you know, needs help dealing with mental health problems, the following organisations provide support:

- Papyrus, www.papyrus-uk.org, 0800 068 41 41
- Samaritans,www.samaritans.org, 116 123
He is now set to appear on stage in a brand new musical stage play at locations across the UK.
John will be starring in selected dates of the upcoming UK tour of Dreamcoat Stars.
The show features artists who have previously played the role of Joseph in Joseph And The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.
He will appear as a guest star at three of the show’s dates later this year.
It’s thought that John will perform a number of songs from the hit musical as well as share stories from his time in the show.
The actor and singer will also take part in meet and greets and selfie sessions with fans prior to each show.

Mohamed Al Fayed accused of raping five women including teen as one says he ordered her to wash with Dettol after attack
MOHAMED Al-Fayed has been accused of raping and sexually assaulting a string of women who worked at Harrods.
Five women said they were raped by the billionaire, who died last year aged 94, and a further 20 female employees allege Al Fayed sexually assaulted them.
The women who worked at Harrods from the late 1980s to 2000s said assaults were carried out at the company’s offices, in Fayed’s London apartment, or on foreign trips often in Paris at the Ritz hotel, according to an investigation by the BBC.
It is claimed that the Harrods tycoon would regularly tour the department store’s sales floors to identify young female assistants he found attractive before isolating and attacking them.
The new documentary – called Al Fayed: Predator at Harrods – hears claims that the store not only failed to intervene but also helped cover up allegations against Fayed.
Harrods’ current owners said they were “utterly appalled” by the allegations, stressing the company today is “very different”.
One of his alleged victims was named as Gemma, who worked for Al Fayed as a personal assistant between 2007 and 2009 – and tells how his behaviour would turn more scary during work trips abroad.
She says he raped her at Villa Windsor in Paris’s Bois de Boulogne, a former home of post-abdication King Edward VIII and his wife Wallis Simpson.
She described waking up to find him attempting to get into bed with her, adding: “I told him, “No, I don’t want you to”.
“And he proceeded to just keep trying to get in the bed, at which point he was kind of on top of me and [I] really couldn’t move anywhere.
“I was kind of face down on the bed and he just pressed himself on me.”
She says after Fayed raped her she cried, while he got up and told her aggressively to wash herself with Dettol.
“Obviously he wanted me to erase any trace of him being anywhere near me,” she explains.
Another woman, who says Fayed raped her at his London apartment, told BBC investigators: ‘I made it obvious that I didn’t want that to happen.
“I did not give consent. I just wanted it to be over.”
Another woman described being raped at the Mayfair address as a teenager, describing staff at Harrods as being treated as his “playthings”.
She said: “Mohamed Al Fayed was a monster, a sexual predator with no moral compass whatsoever.
“We were all so scared. He actively cultivated fear. If he said “jump”, employees would ask, “How high?”‘
She added: ‘I think Mohamed Al Fayed is a rapist – he is a serial rapist.’
Harrods said in a statement to the BBC: “The Harrods of today is a very different organisation to the one owned and controlled by Al Fayed between 1985 and 2010.
“It is one that seeks to put the welfare of our employees at the heart of everything we do.
“Since new information came to light in 2023 about historic allegations of sexual abuse by Al Fayed, it has been our priority to settle claims in the quickest way possible.
“This process is still available for any current or former Harrods employees.
“While we cannot undo the past, we have been determined to do the right thing as an organisation, driven by the values we hold today, while ensuring that such behaviour can never be repeated in the future.”
Who was Mohamed Al Fayed?
MOHAMED AL-FAYED was best known as the owner of luxury department store Harrods and father of Princess Diana's boyfriend Dodi Al-Fayed.
The billionaire died in August 2023 at the age of 94, almost 26 years to the day after the passing of his son.
Heini Wathen married Mohamed Al-Fayed in 1985 and the couple went on to have four children together; Jasmine, Karim, Camilla and Omar.
Heini and Mohamed’s romance began after they were introduced by Mohamed’s son Dodi.
The couple are portrayed by Hanna Alström and Salim Daw in the sixth and final season of Netflix‘s The Crown.
Before marrying Heini, Mohamed had been wed once before.
In 1954 he tied the knot with Saudi Arabian author Samira Khashoggi.
The pair split after two years but welcomed son Dodi together in 1955.
Dodi is Samira and Mohamed’s only child, but Mohamed went on to have four more kids with his second wife.
Prior to his death, Mohamed lived in a house near Oxted with his wife Heini.
The family estate in Surrey, named Barrow Green Court, is where both Mohamed and his son Dodi are buried.
His eldest son – Dodi – was killed alongside Diana, Princess of Wales in 1997.
Mum-of-22 Sue Radford reveals date for daughter Millie’s wedding – but frets she doesn’t have an outfit & it’s soon
WITH 22 kids, Sue Radford is going to be mother of the bride or groom on more than a few occasions.
But as her daughter Millie’s wedding fast approaches, the family matriarch has admitted she’s struggling to find the perfect outfit for the big event.
Sue also revealed that the nuptials are happening soon, as she took to her Instagram Stories to reveal her style quandary.
“Booked in my next hair appointment today for Millie and Harley’s wedding in just over nine weeks’ time,” she wrote.
“So EXCITED but I’m really struggling to find a mother of the bride outfit I love, so if anyone has any recommendations, I’d love for you to share please.”
While Sue said she usually goes for Phase Eight dresses as she loves their options, she added that she wants to go for “something a bit different” for this occasion.
“But it has to be petite which is so difficult to find!” Sue sighed.
Bride-to-be Millie also shared Sue’s post on her own Instagram Stories, as she urged fans: “Please comment your favourite place to shop MOB dresses!”
While Sue hasn’t revealed the recommendations she received from her followers as yet, Karen Millen, Coast, Hobbs and Oasis all do petite occasion wear, so are likely to have been suggested.
Sue is believed to be around 5ft tall, and previously admitted she sometimes shops in the kids’ section at stores like Primark in a bid to find outfits that fit her petite frame.
Millie and Harley got engaged earlier this year, when the dad of two of her three children popped the question at Disneyland.
The moment was special for Millie on more than one occasion, as she revealed Harley dropped the ring as he was overcome with nerves.
A little boy luckily found the sparkler, but Harley struggled to get it on Millie’s finger as it was a bit tight.
“I must have put a bit of timber since being here,” Millie told Sue and dad Noel at the time.
“Cos I was an M (ring size) before we got here. It’s a bit small.”
Millie Radford's relationship timeline
Millie is the seventh child and third daughter of parents-of-22 Sue and Noel Radford.
She shot to fame when the family landed their own Channel 5 show, 22 Kids and Counting, in 2018.
Millie got pregnant for the first time aged 18, and welcomed daughter Ophelia into the world in September 2020.
Millie is no longer with Ophelia’s father, whose identity remains a secret, as they broke up not long after she got pregnant.
The reality star opened up about her relationship with him and said: “He just wasn’t happy to step up and be a dad so he’s never been named.”
On February 20, 2022, she welcomed her second child, a son called Chester.
Millie kept her pregnancy secret until her due date and in March 2022, she opened up about Chester’s birth in a question time “catch up” on her Instagram stories.
She also identified Chester’s dad for the first time, revealing he was her secret boyfriend Harley Passmore.
In May 2023, Millie revealed she was expecting another child with her partner.
Her baby, a daughter named Jade, was born in September 2023.
In April 2024, Millie excitedly told fans Harley had asked her to marry him during a trip to Disneyland in Florida.
In July, mum Sue let slip that Millie and Harley will be tying the knot before the end of the year, and even shared a snap of the bride-to-be looking at potential wedding dresses.
She later added: “Anyways guys, wedding will be a while off yet. So we’ve all got time.”
Millie has since shared pictures of herself shopping for a wedding dress, as she attempts to get everything perfect for her big day.
