England A man has been found guilty of the murder of British backpacker Grace Millane in New Zealand. The 27-year-old man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was found guilty by a jury at the Auckland High Court after almost five hours of deliberation. Ms Millane, 22, from Essex, was travelling in New Zealand when she was killed in December 2018. Her body was found wrapped in a duvet in a shallow grave in the Waitakere Ranges, near Auckland. The man, who had been on a Tinder date with Ms Millane, claimed her death was an accident. However, the jury rejected his defence. Ms Millane's family said they were "devastated" by her death but grateful for the "outpouring of love and support" since she died. "We will always remember the beautiful Grace who stole our hearts," they said in a statement. The man will be sentenced in February and faces life imprisonment.

A young boy, aged nine, has received a second invitation to attend Buckingham Palace after he was unable to make it to a garden party because of traffic. He expressed his motivation for going as wanting to check up on the well-being of the King.

Tony Hudgell, who resides in Kent, has two amputated limbs. He was en route to attend a party that was being hosted by King Charles III on Wednesday. However, his journey was delayed due to heavy traffic on the M20.

Tony expressed his enthusiasm towards meeting the King following his previous letdown, stating that he has constantly held the desire to have a glimpse of him.

The young person informed BBC South East that they desire to confirm the well-being of an individual who has undergone medical care.

After being diagnosed with cancer in February, the King decided to take a temporary pause from his public obligations. However, in April, upon his return, he shared his feelings of being "surprised" upon receiving the news of his diagnosis.

On Wednesday, he greeted visitors at the initial gathering of the two summer celebrations that the Palace will organize this year.

Tony came back home feeling completely deflated because his family had to cancel their trip.

The spirits of the youthful fundraiser were lifted after receiving an unexpected social media message from the Royal Family, inviting them to attend a forthcoming event.

Paula Hudgell, who is the mother that adopted him, stated that the response from the authorities made him very happy and he went to bed with the knowledge that he was being thought of.

Tony was extremely excited when he left school on Wednesday, but he was disappointed to learn that there was a traffic jam and he had missed the garden party when he woke up from a nap in the car.

He expressed his amazement at receiving a direct message on the Royal Family's account on X, previously known as Twitters.

I was amazed when the Royal Family themselves sent a tweet to my mother, giving us permission to attend next year's event. Honestly, I never expected them to do something like that.

"They seem to have a jam-packed schedule and given their exhaustion from the garden party, I doubted they would have undertaken such a task."

Where did you get the picture from?, asked Paula Hudgell. (Please note that this is already in free English.

The mother who legally took Tony under her care mentioned that he managed to maintain a positive attitude while being trapped in congestion.

Tony, who has collected more than £2m for charitable causes, had his lower limbs removed after suffering mistreatment as an infant from his biological guardians.

In April, he had an operation to stabilize his hip, which had been dislocated permanently. Additionally, a device was implanted to extend one of his legs.

Ms Hudgell stated that Tony would eventually not require crutches to walk, despite his severe pain which she described as "very intense."

The chances are high that the family will go to a garden gathering in May of 2025. Tony's mother desires for him to be mobile enough to stroll around the palace by that time.

The family was formally informed by the Lord Chamberlain's office that they will receive an invite in the future.

Tony mentioned that he was thrilled at the prospect of being able to go next year, as he was experiencing a great deal of happiness.
