Clown Vance’s slur on 637 war heroes The Daily Express highlights the backlash, reporting that military veterans have branded Vance a “clown” for his comments. The paper notes that veterans have accused the vice president of dishonoring the 636 British soldiers who gave their lives fighting alongside the US in Iraq and Afghanistan. The paper calls Meghan Markle’s new Netflix show boring, insulting and a waste of time.

Trump sidekick slur The Daily Mirror decries Vance’s comments as an insult to the “heroes of our armed forces,” pointing out the remarks came just as the UK began unveiling plans for its VE Day celebrations. JD Vance has since come out to say he wasn’t talking about Britain or France – though it has raised eyebrows regardless. Elsewhere, footie pundit Jermaine Jenas has split from his wife. It comes after he was caught in a sexting scandal last year.

Zelensky’s olive branch to Trump after PM’s plea The Daily Mail reports that the Ukrainian president is ready to sign a minerals deal with the United States in what the paper describes it as Zelenskyy’s olive branch to Donald Trump. The paper also offers up its review of Meghan Markle’s new show on Netflix. The tabloid is, of course, unimpressed.

Jenas dumped by wife The front page of The Sun reports on football pundit Jermaine Jenas, who has been dumped by his wife after 16 years together. The paper notes the end of his marriage comes after a sexting scandal he was involved in earlier last year. The paper unsurprisingly mocks Meghan Markle’s newest Netflix show – there’s no love lost between Meghan and the tabloids so I can’t imagine she expected rave reviews.

Wednesday’s newspapers continue its coverage of the ongoing fallout between the US and Ukraine and the straining relationship between the US and its allies.

JD Vance is slammed across many of the newspapers due to his comments that Britain is some ‘random country that hasn’t fought in a war in 30 or 40 years’ – despite Britain having fought alongside America in their Middle Eastern oil wars. The tabloids call the American vice president a clown.

Elsewhere, the tabloids pull apart Meghan Markle’s new Netflix show, and there’s coverage of football pundit Jermaine Jenas’s announcement that his marriage has ended, following his cheating scandal.

Most of the back pages report on Arsenal’s 7-1 win over PSV in last night’s Champions League match. Fellow English club Aston Villa also won.
