Oh darling! Sam Palmer, husband of Formula 1 heiress Petra Ecclestone, has returned to his grandstand.
This time he is broadcasting from his Los Angeles pool, criticizing people who identify as non-binary.
In his ‘Pet Hate’ Instagram series, the self-proclaimed moral arbiter declares: ‘They should lock them in the asylums and throw away (sic) the keys.’
Palmer, 39, who married Ecclestone, 35, two years ago, not only refuses to address gender-neutral people by their preferred pronoun, she describes them as “bloody-talking commoners.”
The former used car salesman adds: “There’s no way I’m playing along.”

Palmer, 39, who married Ecclestone (pictured in 2018), 35, two years ago, not only refuses to address gender-neutral people with her preferred pronoun, but described as ‘cursed-talking plebes’. ‘
The couple at their lavish wedding ceremony on July 16, 2022. Sam received the 1980 FA Cup as a gift, with the trophy won by West Ham after beating Arsenal by a single goal.
Essex-born Palmer clearly has no qualms about his controversial views upsetting the non-binary community, which includes stars such as The Crown actress Emma Corrin and singers Sam Smith and Demi Lovato.
In one comment, he says: “It’s a mental disorder, anyone who doesn’t want to be identified, the Government should strip them of it.” Without a bank, passport, healthcare, etc., I bet they would recover.”
Initially, the couple homeschooled their children to protect their minds from what Palmer called “woke stupidity.”
And he added: ‘We have teachers. And sports coaches. I was against it at first, but I have to say I really love it. We can spend more time as a family. We can choose what our children are taught. And it certainly won’t include woke stupidity like I’ve seen in some schools.’
Palmer’s engagement to Bernie Ecclestone’s youngest daughter came shortly after her tumultuous divorce from gold bullion trader James Stunt in 2017, with whom she has a 12-year-old daughter, Lavinia, and twins, James and Andrew, nine.
When her billionaire father heard the news of her plans to remarry, he complained, “I told him I don’t know what the rush is…I don’t understand why.”
But it didn’t take long for Palmer, who met Petra through her sister Tamara’s husband, to get used to the heiress’ lifestyle. Palmer became so accustomed to servants catering to his every whim that he launched a domestic staffing agency from his home in Los Angeles, boasting that it would be the first “run by someone who lives with the staff.”
A big British wedding for California girl Bella
A quintessentially English wedding is in store for Hollywood actress Bella Thorne and British producer Mark Emms, 45, to whom she got engaged last year.
As I can reveal, the couple will hold the next ceremony in the United Kingdom.
“We’re in the middle of planning the wedding and we’ve decided we’ll do it in the UK,” she tells me at the amfAR Gala in Cannes at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc.
“It’s going to be magical.”
The former Disney star has fully embraced the British lifestyle, saying: “I love a good English roast and delicious fish and chips.”
The actress, 26, also prefers the hustle and bustle of London to her isolated Hollywood home.
‘Where I live in Los Angeles, it’s a long way from the city, so it’s nice to be (in London) because everyone has a lot of fun, they meet up with their friends and I love it. I feel like that’s not so L.A.’

Rishi Sunak’s surprise promise to restore National Service for teenagers in the event of a Conservative general election victory has divided opinion but given Jeremy Clarkson pause.
‘Instead of National Service, which is obviously idiotic, how about children working on farms?’ —The 64-year-old man proposes.
The Clarkson’s Farm star says her shop Diddly Squat Farm is “always looking for bright, chatty people.”
And he adds: ‘We don’t care about qualifications. Just be fun.’

“The thought of them being under threat actually makes me feel physically sick,” she tells the Queen’s Reading Room podcast.
“We should do everything we can to keep them open.”
The former Great British Bake Off presenter, 55, says she went to the library every day to work on her 2021 novel The Best Things, adding: “I had to be there… before it opened.” She wanted to sit me in the same chair.”

Secret of the royal bond? School
Immediately after the Cannes Film Festival, Italian it-girl princesses Maria Carolina and Maria Chiara of Bourbon of the Two Sicilies were among the faces of society at the Monaco Formula One Grand Prix gala dinner.
The heir daughters of the Duke and Duchess of Castro were born just 18 months apart in Rome and say they are often mistaken for twins.
“What’s incredible is that when people don’t know us, they think, ‘Oh, you’re like twins,'” Carolina, 20, tells me.
Revealing that homeschooling is the secret to her close bond with her 19-year-old sister, she adds: ‘We have studied together. We have grown together. We have many friends in common, but each of us also has our own life, our friends, our passions.’
Perhaps having family homes in Monte Carlo, Rome and Paris will make it easier to escape from each other.

‘Everyone wanted to do galas and all kinds of events where I had to wear elegant clothes.
