Welcome to the update. I'm eleanor quirk. A woman is dead and another has been seriously injured in a freak lightning strike in their backyard. The pair was at their home in Sydney, Southwest when a tree was struck by lightning, sending debris flying. Paramedic David Kingston says a woman aged in her forties was struck by shrapnel and died at the scene. The other was taken to hospital with serious hand and facial injuries.

The reptile was caught and euthanized as part of the search for a man reported missing northwest of cans. Donald Trump has taken a swipe at Harry and Meghan. There have been questions about his immigration status, and the US President says he doesn't want to deport the royal because he's got enough problems with his wife.

I'm not a fan of magd I'm not a fan, and I wasn't right from the beginning. So I think poor Harry is being led around by his nose. Okay, I think he's going to I do. I've been a very good predictor, as you know, I predicted almost everything. It'll end and it'll end bad.

They're very special to entertainment and yet to be released interview is shedding more light on Justin Baldoni's experience on the set of It Ends with Us.

I had intense year.
