From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Kate Beckinsale gave her daughter a shock after pretending that a risqué picture posted by Madonna was her own.

The actor forwarded the photo, which shows the singer exposing her fishnet-clad bottom from under a bed, to Lily, the daughter she shares with Michael Sheen.

Beckinsale then posted screenshots of their message exchange on her Instagram page, captioned: “Lily had a fright. God bless Madonna.”

Madonna recently posted a series of photographs that showed her posing partially nude in various positions in a bedroom.

Pretending one of the images was of herself, Beckinsale asked her daughter: “Do you think this is too much? Thing is my ass looks good.”

Lily, 22, then responded saying: “I’m a little confused I must say.”

Beckinsale later revealed that the picture belongs to Madonna, much to Lily’s relief.

“Like I’d ever,” Beckinsale said, adding: “I can’t believe you don’t recognise your own mother’s anus from under the bed.”

Lily said that a colleague came to check on her when she was worrying about the picture, but after her mother revealed it was a prank, Lily said she cried “tears of happiness”.

She said: “I wouldn’t even be embarrassed like for me if u posted that, I would be concerned.”
