Tell me about the new product you have created
so it feels like Celox PPH is a testament to their influence on me
I received texts from several surgeons saying their patients would have died without the product
Obstetricians around the world are crying out for this product and I can’t implement it quickly enough
I’m talking to the World Health Organisation about getting this product into Africa
where more mothers die after childbirth than in any other country
I work in Crewe Monday to Friday then go home and see my family on the weekend
I just celebrated my 25-year anniversary with my wife
We have four children so it’s full on here and then full-on at home

GUELPH – Co-operators was named one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers for 2025 by Mediacorp Canada on Nov
Canada’s Top 100 Employers is an editorial competition that looks to recognize Canadian employers that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work
Winners are announced annually in a special magazine distributed in The Globe and Mail
“Being named one of Canada’s top 100 employers
executive vice president and chief human resources officer of Co-operators
“We work hard to create an environment where employees feel valued
Saskatchewan with the development of Co-operators Life Insurance Company
The company became the fastest growing life insurer in Canada
By 1947 Co-operative Life expanded into Manitoba
with the company taking on auto claims in the 1950s
The company’s national headquarters is located in Guelph and the company boasts a total of 6,916 full-time employees and 214 part-time employees across Canada
“Our view is our employees are the driving force behind our ability to deliver and … I’ve had so many employees email me to say they’re not surprised
and we do a lot to support employees and so everyone’s just feeling a real sense of pride at being recognized,” Mably told the Advertiser
According to the “Canada’s Top 100” website
reasons Co-operators was selected include its defined pension plans that provide health benefits to retirees with no age limit and 75 per cent minimum coverage
its generous mental health coverage of up to $5,000 a year
and its maternal and parental leave of up to 80% salary for a maximum of 26 weeks
which is inclusive to adoptive parents as well
the company also provides two paid volunteer days each year to encourage giving back to the community
“We’ve got a number of really competitive approaches in terms of supporting our employees
and we also empower employees to give back and strengthen community resilience … in 2023 employees spent over 27,000 hours giving back to the community,” Mably told the Advertiser
Mably said the company has been named in the top-100 list before
and despite the lengthy application process
“I think for sure we’re going to do it; we consider this a real sense of pride,” said Mably
“We also love the fact that it brands us as an employer and so we’re definitely going to continue
Whether we do it every year or every other year is still to be determined.”

PENCADER United made it 12 wins in 12 outings to take another step towards clinching the Costcutter Ceredigion League Division Two title on Saturday.
They ran out 4-1 at Aberporth after making a flying start against the Airmen with a couple of goals by Morgan Mably goal inside 11 minutes.
The hosts missed a penalty early in the second half but clawed one back moments later through Mathew Storer.
The Kites picked up the pace and were rewarded when Mably used his pace to beat the defence and run the ball into the net to notch his hat-trick.
The game was put out of Aberporth’s reach when a well struck shot from Steff Jones made it 4-1 in stoppage time.
Maesglas were 3-1 winners at Felinfach Reserves who took an early lead through Dafydd Evans.
The visitors, who moved above Felinfach to fourth spot, hit back through Richard Croshaw and Louis Harding before the break.
Dan James missed a penalty just after the hour for the hosts as they pushed to get back on level terms but the result was put beyond doubt when Marcus Dean netted Maesglas’ third in the closing stages.
In Division One, Llandysul ended a nine- game streak without a league win with a 3-0 victory against visitors New Quay thanks to quick-fire goals midway through the second half by Thomas Fayers, Bartosz Kasperski and Owen Jones.
Elis Jones’ third minute strike sealed Crannog’s 1-0 home win against Crymych in the other game played.
An early goal also decided the outcome of the Division Three clash between Crannog Reserves and Felinfach Thirds, Owen Williams netting for the visitors.
Cardigan Town were in fine goalscoring form as the saw off hosts Bargod Rangers 6-1 in the Costcutter Ceredigion League Cup.
Luke Doherty was their star man with a five-goal haul, which included a hat-trick of penalties, with Dean Thomas also on the scoresheet. Jac Griffiths replied for Rangers.
Llechryd won by the odd goal in seven against Llanboidy, thanks to Hari Thomas (2), Jack Everton and Cory Leonard-Davies. Frazer Wyatt, Jac Haley and Gethin Scourfield hit back for the visitors.

Ross Hamilton is accused of plunged a piece of broken glass into the neck of Reece Newcombe in a nightclub in south-west London
A man was fatally stabbed in the neck after his alleged assailant acted aggressively on a night out
doing karate kicks on a dance floor and threatening to “ju-jitsu the f***” out of someone
Ross Hamilton had been “spoiling for a fight” and armed himself with a piece of broken glass before he plunged it into the neck of Reece Newcombe
Mr Newcombe was found after police were called to reports of a fight on Richmond Bridge in south-west London in the early hours of November 26 2022
Prosecutor Louis Mably KC said the fight was fuelled by “intoxicated aggression” and Hamilton’s decision to arm himself “changed everything”
Mr Newcombe had been watching England play the USA in a World Cup game being screened in a fanzone in Richmond Park
He went on to Viva nightclub in Richmond where he became intoxicated and had a “good time”
had also been in the club acting in an “aggressive and unpredictable manner”
The prosecutor said: “He seemed to be goading people doing karate kicks on the dance floor and putting his arm around people and behaving aggressively towards them.”
He continued to act aggressively after the club closed and people spilled outside
Mr Mably said: “He began confronting people
and goading them to go and fight him down an alleyway
Mr Newcombe made the “tragic decision” to engage with the man who had already armed himself with a piece of broken glass
Mr Mably said: “The sad truth is there was no need for this fight to happen – it was an event that was fuelled by intoxicated aggression
It was not a case of the defendant defending himself
“The defendant had armed himself with a weapon and got the fight he was looking for.”

MGA MedTech’s new Mably facility is described as France’s first fully digitalized
and sustainable 4.0 factory in the medtech sector
MGA MedTech
is at the forefront of accelerating advancements in in vitro diagnostics and cellular and gene therapies
The company specializes in designing and building custom machines to support its clients in embracing the future of the medical industry.
the facility in Mably highlights MGA MedTech’s commitment to technological innovation and environmental responsibility
the event showcased the company’s vision for creating a sustainable future while driving progress in medical diagnostics and treatment technologies
Located in the Roanne municipality, the new MGA MedTech building illustrates the company’s mission of fusing cutting-edge medical technology with eco-conscious architectural design
paving the way for a new era of responsible industrial development
One of the most remarkable features of the new MGA MedTech building is its focus on renewable energy and environmental sustainability. The building was designed with a strong emphasis on reducing carbon emissions and utilizing clean energy sources. Hervé de Malliard, President of MGA Technologies
explained the company’s dedication to sustainable practices during his speech:
“We planted 319 trees on this site and installed geothermal heating with 11 wells drilled to a depth of 140 meters. This system provides natural heat for the building, and with the upcoming installation of 3,000 square meters of photovoltaic panels
we’re exceeding environmental norms by 25%,” said de Malliard
“We’ve worked hard to ensure that this building performs better than the required standards
even though we weren’t obligated to meet them.”
supplying the building’s sanitary facilities and reducing the demand for local water supplies
The facility combines traditional industrial-style ridged roofs with modern construction techniques
utilizing south-facing solar panels to maximize energy production while allowing natural light to flood the workshops through north-facing glass panels
The building is constructed with a wooden frame and concrete elements for thermal inertia
and its green facades enhance its environmental credentials
Designed to exceed RE-2020 energy standards by 25%
the facility is a model of eco-responsibility
aims to fully offset the building’s construction footprint by the early 2030s
“We’ve created a facility that not only embraces cutting-edge technology but also leads by example in sustainability
Our goal is to show that technology and ecology can come together to improve both health and the environment.”
The building is situated on what was once agricultural land
a choice that presented significant challenges for both the company and local authorities
the Mayor of Roanne and the Metropolitan area of Roanne addressed these challenges in his inaugural speech
reflecting on the long-term vision and collaboration required to make the project a reality
“We are on what used to be agricultural land
and it took 10 years of legal procedures to turn 100 hectares of farmland into 37 hectares of commercial space
We knew this project would have a lasting impact
and we fought for it because we understand the importance of planning for the future
Projects like these are essential for economic development
but they also come with responsibilities.”
the development of the site is a prime example of forward-thinking land use
ensured that environmental sustainability was prioritized
with eco-responsible measures and compensatory actions taken to protect local flora and fauna
Nicolin emphasized that the project was part of a broader effort to balance economic growth with environmental conservation
ensuring that future generations inherit a healthier planet
Beyond its impressive environmental credentials
the building was also designed to be flexible and future-proof
the architectural choices that support both sustainability and versatility were highlighted
The facility is built to accommodate a wide range of production processes
ensuring that MGA MedTech can easily adapt to changes in the medical technology industry
capable of adapting to different production needs
Whether we’re manufacturing small instruments or large-scale equipment
the workspace can easily shift to meet new demands
This flexibility ensures that we can quickly adapt to emerging technologies
staying ahead of the curve in the medical tech world.”
The paperless system employed in the facility is another example of MGA MedTech’s commitment to innovation
the production floor operates with minimal paper waste
streamlining communication and data management
Production information is directly integrated into the facility’s systems
allowing for real-time adjustments and reducing human error
the building’s focus on renewable energy doesn’t stop at the factory doors
Solar panel-covered parking structures provide shade for vehicles while generating electricity
This not only reduces the facility’s reliance on external energy sources but also encourages employees to transition to electric vehicles
with charging stations conveniently located throughout the parking area
The inauguration of the MGA MedTech facility is not only a milestone for the company but also a significant step forward for the Roanne region
The project has breathed new life into the area
which has a long-standing industrial heritage
Mayor Nicolin highlighted the broader economic and social implications of the project
noting that the new facility will contribute to the region’s economic growth and provide job opportunities for local residents
but today we are experiencing an economic revival
and sustainable development to our community
and I am confident that it will serve as a model for future developments in the region,” Nicolin said
The building is expected to create numerous job opportunities in the Roanne area
The collaboration between MGA MedTech and local authorities demonstrates how public-private partnerships can drive sustainable economic growth while respecting environmental concerns
The inauguration of the MGA MedTech building in Mably is a clear reflection of the company’s visionary approach to both technology and environmental responsibility
MGA MedTech has set a new standard for industrial development
“We’ve created something here that we hope will inspire others
Our responsibility is not just to innovate in the field of medical technology
but also to lead by example in sustainability.”
This new facility shows what can be achieved when innovation and sustainability go hand in hand
offering a glimpse into the future of industrial design and eco-friendly practices

This unfocused drama about a Hungarian Jew who joins the resistance in 1944 only ever scratches the surface
And Harvey Keitel’s appearance is disheartening
When he isn’t pimping Winston Wolf out to Direct Line
it’s disheartening to see a great actor like Harvey Keitel in the Werther’s Original role here: the white-haired “Papi” narrating to his grandson how things were in the bad old dog days of the second world war
also has the unfortunate effect of sapping a degree of urgency from this ponderous and unfocused 1944-set tale
Hungarian Jewish lawyer Sonson (Luke Mably) is already in a forced labour camp when his wife’s sudden death from breast cancer pushes him into actively resisting the Nazis
walks to Poland in a third of the time it would take a lesser man
and selflessly spearheads an uprising; Sonson wears his heroic credentials as starched as the SS regalia he disguises himself in
But director Jasmin Dizdar and writer Gabriel de Mercur never scratch beneath to find the compelling psychological intricacies that were surely flushed out in such desperate pockets of combat; without them
Mably remains a terse but undeniably charismatic outer shell
Having everyone speak Bohemian or Teuton-scented English is an authenticity fail
Everyone can't stop talking about A Christmas Prince
The film follows journalist Amber Moore (McIver) who arrives in Aldovia to report on a press conference about Prince Richard (Lamb)
Amber ends up pretending to be the tutor for the prince's sister Emily (Honor Kneafsey) to get the inside scoop on the royal family
But as we're looking closer at this movie
we're finding a lot of similarities between A Christmas Prince and some of your other favorite princess movies
Let us show you some of the major references
Netflix Defends Its A Christmas Prince Shame Tweet (Stay Hurt, 53 Viewers)
The Princess Diaries: When Amber has to go report on the story
she's sent to "Aldovia." Which
and sounds a lot like the name of the far away land in The Princess Diaries
The Prince and Me: In the 2004 movie starring Julia Stiles and Luke Mably
Stiles plays a college student named Paige Morgan who meets Eddie (Mably) while at school in Wisconsin
She doesn't know of course that Eddie is actually Prince Edward of Denmark
who is at school to get away from his royal duties in Denmark
So we have one character going undercover in both movies and both princes have a bad boy reputation
both princes have younger sisters in their respecting movies
A Cinderella Story: Amber is spotted wearing Converse sneakers with her ball gown in the movie
which just so happens to be Hilary Duff's character's favorite footwear in A Cinderella Story
Beauty and the Beast: There's also a reference to Beauty and the Beast in the movie when a wolf almost attacks Amber
The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement: Viewers are also finding many similarities between A Christmas Prince and the second Princess Diaries movie starring Anne Hathaway and Chris Pine
"Why is A Christmas Prince on Netflix literally like Princess Diaries 2," one Twitter user wrote
While another tweet reads
"A Christmas Prince is basically the guy version of The Princess Diaries 2
And this Twitter user sums up the comparisons
"'The Christmas Prince' is like someone trying to do a 'Drunk History' description of 'The Princess Diaries 2' but getting it confused with parts of the 'The Prince & Me' and then making a Hallmark movie based on that
Let us know which princess movie you think it's most like in the comments below

Prosecutors say pair did not properly assess heat illness risk for exercise in Wales
Two special forces officers who were in charge of an SAS test march in which three candidates died following heat illness made “basic and fundamental” errors in the planning and running of the exercise, a court martial has been told.
They were accused of not carrying out a proper risk assessment as temperatures during the 18-mile (30km) march soared, and did not react when candidates began to be diagnosed with heat illness, it was claimed.
Louis Mably QC, prosecuting, accepted the officers could not be blamed for “systemic failings” that were also at the centre of the case and were the responsibility of the joint forces command at the Ministry of Defence.
The Health and Safety Executive concluded these failings exposed the students to an avoidable risk and the MoD received a so-called “crown censure”.
Mably said the HSE made it clear that the MoD would have faced prosecution for the failings identified, if it were not immune. But Mably argued despite these systemic failings, 1A and 1B were also guilty of personal failings and did not carry out their duty with regard to heat illness with diligence and care.
L/Cpl Craig Roberts and L/Cpl Edward Maher were pronounced dead on the Brecon Beacons in south Wales after experiencing heat illness in July 2013. Cpl James Dunsby died at Queen Elizabeth hospital in Birmingham from multiple organ failure more than two weeks later. He had also experienced heat illness.
Roberts, 24, and Maher and Dunsby, both 31, were part-time soldiers who wanted to try out for the SAS reserve, which works alongside regular troops in some of the world’s most dangerous war zones. They were taking part in the march in searing heat on and around Pen y Fan, the highest peak in south Wales.
Read moreThe SAS is not being mentioned by name during the trial
it is being described as a “specialist military unit”
Mably explained how the candidates had to cover almost 30km in eight hours and 45 minutes carrying a rucksack weighing up to 27kg and a dummy rifle
Thirty-seven reservists and 41 regular troops took part in the exercise
The prosecutor alleged that a risk assessment document for the exercise was written by 1B and signed off by 1A
But he described the assessment as a “paper exercise” that had not taken into account the predicted hot weather
Mably said the first “potential” case of heat illness was seen as early as 11am and the first candidate to be withdrawn because of heat illness came at 12.14pm
Though the officers had the authority to call the march off
it continued and the three men were found collapsed much later in the afternoon
“The risk of heat illness [was] not properly assessed
They [the defendants] didn’t properly respond to the risk as heat illness casualties began to arise,” he said
“Things [went] terribly wrong on the ground
The prosecutor said heat illness had “infected” the test
He added that the sort of men who put themselves forward for such an exercise were not the type to give up
“They were operating at or beyond their limits,” he said
Mably told the court that the risk assessment incorrectly noted that the unit helicopter was available
He also said a civilian ambulance crew refused to go on to the hillside to help the injured men until a mountain rescue team arrived to assist
He said that no water was available at the two most remote checkpoints
Giving more details about the systemic failings highlighted by the HSE
he said a tracking system designed to help directing staff keep an eye on candidates was not fit for purpose and there was no medic with overall responsibility for the exercise

Reconstruction of Cefn Mably Farm Park’s main building has begun after it was severely damaged by floods last year
The new building will be significantly larger and will be on stilts to avoid flooding issues in future
following the damage caused by Storm Dennis in February 2020
which is located on the border between Caerphilly County Borough and Newport
is operating as an outdoor attraction with marquees until construction finishes
the farm was a popular tourist attraction for families and schools across South Wales
The rebuild will allow the farm to provide these activities once again
who owns the farm with his wife Alyona Edwards
has reportedly spent £2 million on the rebuild
Planning permission was granted by Newport City Council on September 1
Mr Edwards said: “In February 2020 we had our building flooded
at that time we decided we didn’t want this to happen again
“I didn’t want my children and my wife to experience that devastation again
We want this to be a better building that will last us and give us a strong stable future.”
Cefn Mably Farm Park did not trade for nearly a year and a half due to the floods and lockdown restrictions
The farm currently employs 35 local staff members – a number which is set to increase once construction is complete
Mr Edwards took on the farm from his mother in 2004

when I first heard about the psychological horror movie The Ghost Writer
The film sounded like a fun take on this classic combo
and I couldn’t wait to see what it would add to the time-honored legacy of art in horror
The Ghost Writer was directed by Paul Wilkins
a struggling author trying to follow in his late father’s much more successful footsteps
he decides to stow away at his old family home to help get the creative juices flowing
he comes across a hidden manuscript left behind by his father
He realizes that it’s better than anything he can come up with
so he wants to plagiarize it and claim it as his own
doing so unleashes the demons of his father’s past
and he starts receiving bizarre visitations from Jane and Patrick
two mysterious figures who may or may not be all in his head
and I found it to be a huge letdown on just about every level
Gilliger is pretty much the definition of middling
there’s nothing particularly bad about him
Actor Luke Mably does a decent job in the role
so Gilliger is believable enough that I never questioned if he was a real person or just an actor reading lines
so the best I can say is that this character is decent
The Ghost Writer needed to really excel in at least one other area
not much else about this movie was up to par either
These are by far the two most prominent side characters
so they could’ve picked up a lot of the slack for Gilliger
Patrick is as generic and uninteresting as anyone in The Ghost Writer
Actress Andrea Deck did a great job imbuing this character with the kind of lively personality you can’t help but enjoy
so she could’ve been the movie’s saving grace
and she immediately starts acting like Gilliger knows her
and that’s supposed to be the start of an intriguing mystery
We’re supposed to wonder who (or what) she is and why she’s acting that way
Her bizarre lines just go beyond interesting and become a bit too ridiculous for my tastes
so I stopped caring about this mystery pretty soon after meeting her
The Ghost Writer also shoots itself in the foot by letting us know fairly quickly that no matter what these two side characters do
the camera instantly switches to a shot of him waking up
Fake-outs like that happen a number of times
it completely saps the story of any suspense or tension it might’ve had
There are some good twists and turns in the final act
the truth behind all these horrific goings-on is actually pretty interesting
if the rest of The Ghost Writer was better
I’d probably be praising these big reveals as a great way to cap it all off
the poorly handled mystery surrounding Jane
and the almost complete lack of real tension and suspense just killed any interest I may have had in this story
The entire thing had become nothing more than visual noise by that point
and nothing short of a cinematic miracle could’ve brought me back on board
So if you’re looking for some good new horror to watch
I’m sad to say that I wouldn’t recommend The Ghost Writer
There’s very little here that’s going to be worth your while
so unless you’re just dying to see this film
The Ghost Writer was released on VOD on February 13

While Stiles has become a fixture in Hollywood, she's kept her personal life under the radar. She did, however, share with Cosmopolitan in 2001 just what she was looking for in a guy: "He definitely has to be open-minded and have a sense of humor — I want to have fun with the guy I'm with," she said
sexual attraction is really important — without that
Which guys have fit the bill for the talented actress
Here are a few of her more well-known love interests
While fans of "10 Things I Hate About You" were blown away by the chemistry between on-screen love interests Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger
it turns out the actress was fixated on another co-star during the shoot: Joseph Gordon-Levitt
during the movie's pivotal scene where Stiles' character reads a poem about her unrequited love
she was thinking about her feelings for Gordon-Levitt
"They were very, very attracted to each other," the film's director, Gil Junger, revealed to Nylon
"She's professing her love to [on-screen boyfriend Ledger] and she's in love with a guy waiting in his trailer to shoot the next scene." He added that the two dated "for a minute or 10," stating that "it was beautiful how much they enjoyed each other."
Neither Stiles nor Gordon-Levitt has ever confirmed or denied that they were once an item, but Stiles looks back fondly on the shoot. "I have so many great memories from that movie that are fading, because it has been 20 years," she told Us Weekly
"But it was just such a special time where we were all so excited."
"I've met very important people in my life doing films
Sometimes that had consequences that were just awful for everybody involved
Everybody makes mistakes dating people they work with."
After things fizzled out with Hartnett, Stiles reportedly hooked up with her "The Prince and Me" co-star Luke Mably in 2004. Stiles has revealed, though, that the two didn't have instant on-screen chemistry. "But what was really great about him as an actor was that he was very unpredictable, and so it made me always have to pay attention to what he was doing," she told Live About
But I feel like that's part of my work as an actor
to be able to use my imagination and not be so dependent on how I'm relating to my co-stars."
Rumors soon began circulating that the two were coupling up off screen as well
There was just one problem: Hall was married to Jennifer Carpenter
The two soon announced they were divorcing
and Stiles denied she had anything to do with the demise of the marriage
"I have absolutely nothing to do with the split between Michael and Jennifer. We are good friends and enjoyed working together," she told Us Weekly in a statement
Although I too prefer to keep my private life private
I felt compelled to dispel the rumors I was somehow the cause for this matter."
"Meaning I can't get enough of stories that explore the nature of love
While Stiles and Harbour were often seen together in New York — and even walked the red carpet with one another on several occasions — their relationship stayed mostly out of the spotlight. The two eventually parted ways and Harbour has since moved on, marrying singer Lily Allen in 2020. "I married a beautiful, incredible woman who I love," he told People
"I have never met someone who is so deeply kind as her
I've never felt so taken care of and cared for by another human being."
'Do not ruin a perfectly good vacation by getting your hopes up
The couple continued to work together on a "Jason Bourne" film as well as on the series "Riviera." They married in September 2017 and welcomed their son — Strummer Newcomb — one month later. Stiles celebrated their three-year wedding anniversary by posting a wedding photo on Instagram with the caption

This list features Julia Stiles’s ex-boyfriends along with additional information about them
such as when they were born and what they do professionally
but what they all have in common is that they're all men that Julia Stiles has either dated or hooked up with
It's not hard to get jealous of these men that Julia Stiles has gone out with
This list of Julia Stiles’s boyfriends and rumored exes includes Josh Hartnett
The couple had son Strummer Newcomb on October 20
David Harbour and Julia Stiles dated from 2011 to March 2013
Hall was rumored to be hooking up with Dexter costar Julia Stiles.
American artist Jonathan Cramer dated Julia Stiles from 2006 to August 2008
The Prince and Me costars Julia Stiles and Luke Mably dated in 2004
Julia Stiles and 10 Things I Hate About You costar Joseph Gordon-Levitt are rumored to have dated in 1999
While 2004's The Prince and Me features Julia Stiles as the leading character
Stiles kicked off her career in the '90s with roles in films like The Devil's Own and Wicked (not to be confused with the 2024 adaptation of the Wicked stage play and its cast)
2004 then saw her rise to a new level of stardom with her leading role in Martha Coolidge's The Prince and Me alongside co-star Luke Mably
a premed college student who eventually falls for Mably's Eddie
a wealthy exchange student who is the heir to the throne in his home country
putting Paige in a position to make a tough choice between her American life or a new life as part of royalty
The Prince and Me recently became available to stream on Netflix, which also hosts other romcoms such as Girl Haunts Boy
While Julia Stiles played the leading role of Paige Morgan in 2004's The Prince and Me
her role was recast in 2006's The Prince and Me 2: The Royal Wedding
The sequel replaced Stiles with Kam Heskin
who also played the same role in two more direct-to-video sequels in 2008 and 2010
none of the movie's cast or crew have offered any tangible information on why Stiles did not come back for the sequel
In terms of production for The Prince and Me 2
part of filming for the movie took place between June 26 and July 23
Stiles rose to fame through her work in the Jason Bourne franchise alongside Matt Damon, which was years before he became a cameo machine thanks to movies like Thor: Love and Thunder
She then returned to her role as Nicolette "Nicky" Parsons for The Bourne Ultimatum
Before that, she also starred in 2005's A Little Trip to Heaven alongside Jeremy Renner, who recently returned to acting after a major injury in early 2024
Filming for that series may have potentially taken place at the same time as The Prince and Me 2
Her absence could also be attributed to budget or contract issues with the sequel
as she was on a fast rise to stardom in the mid-2000s after The Bourne Identity
she may have grown past the point as an actor where the crew on The Prince and Me 2 could keep her on
The original only grossed $37.6 million at the box office
and there is no public information on The Prince and Me 2's box office results
The Prince and Me is now streaming on Netflix
