I cry at everything – adverts, Gogglebox, hugging my kids. I love crying: it’s like your pain is laughing.

23 June last year. The fact that certain people have chosen for us to come out of Europe is one of the saddest, divisive and unthought-through events in my lifetime.

Orlando Bloom English actor
I lost my poodle, Mighty. He was out of my sight for just seven minutes; he went out on an adventure and didn’t come back, and was taken by a coyote, I think. It was awful, really painful; he taught me about love and loyalty, and how the connection between living beings can be.
