Where once it was surrounded by stigma, lots has been done over recent years with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) to open up conversations, raise awareness and, ultimately, reduce this stigma.

As part of that, celebrities including Nadia Sawalha, Lily Allen and Love Island star Jacques O'Neill have all spoken openly about their diagnoses.

More recently, viewers of EastEnders saw Mr Hawthorne tell Freddie Slater (Bobby Brazier) that he could potentially have undiagnosed ADHD, prompting the youngster to say that he will look into getting an assessment.

Stagecoach: Luke Bryan Closes Out Day One With Hits and Covers, Bud Light Controversy Looms

Emily Longeretta If anyone can successfully close out a packed desert show on Stagecoach Festival’s opening day, it’s Luke Bryan, who’s been playing at the festival for more than a dozen years and previously headlined in 2014, 2016 and 2019. On Friday night, he opened with a song that might as well have been written for the occasion, “I Don’t Want This Night to End,” and played a set that consisted of nearly all his hits, and a few surprise covers. In addition to his many party anthems — “Drink a Beer,” “Roller Coaster,” “Crash My Party” and “Play it Again” came all in a row — he also sprinkled in covers of Tim McGraw’s “Where the Green Grass Grows” and Brooks and Dunn’s “Neon Moon.”

Matthew Lawrence: ‘My Agency Fired Me’ After I Refused to ‘Take My Clothes Off for an Award-Winning Director’

J. Kim Murphy Actor Matthew Lawrence opened the April 28 episode of his Brotherly Love podcast on a serious note, reflecting on the #MeToo movement and his own experience with sexual harassment in Hollywood. On the show, co-hosted by his brothers, fellow actors Joey and Andrew Lawrence, the 43-year-old actor recounts his experience refusing to engage with a director involved with a Marvel project, who asked Lawrence to take his clothes off during a meeting. “There’s been many times in my life where I’ve been propositioned to get a huge role,” Lawrence says on the podcast. “I lost my agency because I went to the hotel room” where, the actor alleges, a prominent director “showed up in his robe, asked me to take my clothes off, said he needed to take Polaroids of me and said if I did X, Y and Z, I would be the next Marvel character.”
