Hulk Hogan says he's "learnt from [his] mistakes" which saw him exiled from the WWE Hall of Fame for three years.

The 65-year-old retired professional wrestler was axed by the company in 2015 following the publication of a transcript taken from a sex tape recording revealed him using the 'N-word' during a conversation about his daughter Brooke's then-boyfriend.

After several public apologies Hogan was reinstated to the Hall of Fame last year, and now says he's "definitely not in the same place" he was when he made the comments.

He said: "People are all human and they make mistakes, so it's about forgiving people and learning and growing. I'm definitely not in the same place I was 12 or 13 years ago, you know, when I said such stupid words, what came out of my head. That's not who I am.

"People learn from their mistakes, and people generally have a good heart. There's a lot of good people in this world. You've gotta learn to forgive and move forward."

Despite his WWE comeback, Hogan whose real name is Terry Bollea says he won't be returning to the ring any time soon, as he thinks he's "too old" to wrestle now, and would be "embarrassed" by his performance.

The 52-year-old singer who is now also known as Shuhada' Sadaqat after she converted to Islam used her Twitter account on Sunday to claim 14-year-old Shane, whom she has with Donal Lunny, had been "missing for the last two days", but now local gardai officers have confirmed he was located yesterday.

They said in a statement: "Shane O' Connor has been located safe and well today, Monday 21st of January 2019. No further action required."

The Nothing Compares 2 U hitmaker had made an emotional appeal for people with information about Shane to come forward.

In a series of tweets posted on Sunday, she wrote: "My sweet 14 yr old son has been going missing a lot and is currently missing for the last two days. If you are a parent in whose house he has been staying or is staying, please call Dundrum Gardai. Not calling them is not helping him.

"This is my 14 yr old son. Missing since Friday. Last seen in Wicklow town at 7.42 pm tonight. Allegedly Headed for the home of someone called Orlando. If you see him or he is at your home please contact Dundrum or Wicklow Gardai.

On Monday morning, she hinted that he may have been found with a jovial message calling him a "cheeky little monkey".

"Shane O'Connor, you cheeky little monkey. You're too young to be on my page! It's for over 18s. Up out of that bed or sofa now darling, it's school time. I love you. When you're 16, you get to be The General. Meanwhile it's me," she wrote.

Sarah Jessica Parker is making a "brief reappearance" as Carrie Bradshaw.

The 53-year-old actress has teased fans with a short video proclaiming the return of her iconic Sex and the City character who she last played in a second movie in 2010 but didn't offer many details.

In the video, Sarah donned a ballerina-style tulle skirt and stilettos as she walked the streets of New York while the HBO show's famous theme tune played in the background.

She captioned the Instagram post: "My old friend. She is making a brief reappearance. Partnering with a great brand and supporting a cause we all care about. More to come. X, SJ #PourItForward (sic)"

While it hasn't been confirmed why Carrie will be back, it is possibly connected to Stella Artois and Water.org's Pour It Forward initiative, which helps provide clean drinking water to developing countries.
