While many couples only tie the knot once, a growing trend among celebrities in recent years has been to hold second weddings to renew their vows - but one couple who opted for a second wedding long before it became fashionable are Victoria and David Beckham.The couple initially tied the knot all the way back in 1999 in a lavish ceremony that featured a very regal theme complete with crowns, thrones and multiple outfit changes - something that seemed particularly apt for football’s golden boy and his pop superstar bride. However, when renewing their vows seven years later, the former England captain and his fashion designer wife opted for a far more lowkey ceremony in an intimate and private venue attended only by their nearest and dearest.

17.09.2023 - 10:04 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A disease commonly suffered in Victorian times is making a comeback across the UK.
According to specialists, as many as one million people in Britain may have gout. The disease is caused by a chemical called uric acid, This chemical forms small crystals, known as tophi, in and around the joints in the body. The tophi then leads to inflammation - causing swelling, irritation, extreme pain and tenderness in the affected area.
The disease was prominent in Victorian Britain, with many associating gout with people from that era. However, gout has resurged, with the cases of the disease increasing since the Covid 19 pandemic.

More recent figures show that between one and two per cent of Brits are currently suffering with the condition or some symptoms of it.
The warning signs to look out for include: sudden severe pain in a joint – usually your big toe, but it can be in other joints in your feet, ankles, hands, wrists, elbows or knees.

The crystals can develop anywhere in our bodies but they are most commonly found in areas such as toes, heels, knees, fingers, ears, forearms or even in the elbow.
Treatment can stop the tophi from getting bigger, with successful treatment often able to gradually shrink them. However, very large crystals may need to be surgically removed.
Gout can become more frequent and prolonged if not treated, with a risk of permanent joint damage. In some severe cases, surgery may be required to repair or
