Meet the tractor-obsessed fifth-generation farmer who is taking social media by storm at just three years old.

Tommy Summerbell has impressed his family with his caring nature when looking after their myriad of animals including dogs, sheep, goats, alpacas, chickens, cows and horses.

His proud mum, Kate Weightman, 29, says he is ‘seriously tractor obsessed’ after having his first ride on one at just two days old.

The toddler, who goes to nursery two days a week, now regularly drives a combine harvester – while sitting on his dad’s lap.

The cute tot, who lives on a 70-acre farm near Hartlepool in Crimdon, Co Durham, has amassed over 55k TikTok followers in less than two months.

His doting mum posts adorable videos of his outdoor antics, mostly riding around on tractors, ‘strutting’ around with his loyal dogs, and helping his dad with the daily workload.

Kate, who owns a beauty business, explained: ”He really is just farming mad.

”All he wants to do is be out and about with his dad.

”He loves being outside with the tractors and the animals.

”He charges around having the time of his life.

”He really loves going to check on the cows and lets the chickens out every morning.

”His first few words were ‘tractor’ and ‘digger’ and then after that ‘mum’.

”Thankfully I wasn’t offended!

”He’s an incredibly caring little boy.

”We’d never push him into farming, as far as we’re concerned he can do whatever he wants later in life.

”But it does seem that he’ll be in line to take over the family business.

”He already tells all the teachers at nursery about ‘my farm’.”

Tommy’s dad, David Summerbell, 37, has lived and worked on the family farm all his life.

David and Kate even plan to get married there in May 2022 – with Tommy as ring bearer.

Alongside the farm animals, Tommy is usually accompanied by two loyal sheep dogs, border collies, Jess, 13, and Floss, four.

Kate said: ”The dogs adore him and will follow him everywhere he goes on the farm.

”They’re like his two little sidekicks.

”The first thing he does in the morning is to go and find the dogs to give them a stroke and say ‘good morning’.

”He loves them so much.

”He loves all the animals… seeing him feeding a baby goat or running around with the chickens, it’s so heartwarming.

”I think it’s why his social media has really captured people’s hearts.

”Some of his videos have over a million views, one of him with a baby goat has over six million, it’s mad!

”I like to include normal things he helps with during the day, like feeding hay to the cows, driving the combine harvester with David, and rounding up the sheep.

”We’ve not had one negative comment yet, everyone has been so kind.”

According to Tommy’s grandparents, Cath, 60, and Paul, 60 – who also live on the farm – he is the ‘spitting image’ of his dad, David, as a young boy.

”They say they’re two peas in a pod,” Kate said.

”Cath always says it’s literally like looking at David at that age.

”We’re a bit worried about when it comes to full-time school next year as we can’t see Tommy wanting to leave the farm five full days a week.

”He always asks me ‘Mum, is this my farm?’, he’s obsessed!”

A cheerleading couple stunned passersby when they carried out a gravity-defying acrobatic stunt in their wedding outfits on a pedestrian crossing.

Blushing bride – Denise Alexis, 27, from Singapore – shared the video on TikTok where it has been viewed 300,000 times.

She explained: “We did a crazy photoshoot along Orchard Road, how did you think it went?”

Despite hitting the headlines in the couple’s homeland last week, Denise told Zenger News that the sensational single-handed hoist was filmed on 27th February.

In the footage, Denise and her groom are seen preparing for the stunt on the street as a stylist adds the finishing touches to the bride’s makeup.

The couple then walks into the middle of Orchard Road – Singapore’s busiest street – and get into position for their acrobatics.

As the groom hoists his cheerleader bride into the air with one arm, she holds a bouquet of flowers above her head and smiles for the camera.

Then the groom lowers his wife to the ground as a helper runs over and lowers her onto the tarmac before the group quickly gets out of the street.

Denise, a marketing manager, and content creator, told Zenger that she and her partner have been cheerleaders “for about 10 years now”.

She explained: “We have actually been doing yearly stunt photos on the road for a while now, usually during Chinese New Year, so it’s sort of like a tradition we do with each other.

“When the photographer suggested trying it, we were super down to do it.

“Also this stunt is a simple stunt that most cheerleaders would do when taking cheer photos.

“I expected the video to gain more views than usual, but I did not expect it to go that viral and have so much news coverage on it.

“We are glad that most reactions were happy for us and that it was mainly positive reactions, we expected some negative ones, especially from those who don’t understand the sport or didn’t understand that we planned everything carefully, such as choosing a pedestrian crossing that was one of the longest timing (1 min 30 seconds).

“We are also happy that our images are bringing attention to cheerleading as a sport in Singapore.”

This is the moment a Portuguese couple is arrested on camera by cops while in the middle of selling allegedly counterfeit goods on Facebook Live.

The couple, names not disclosed, was arrested for selling counterfeit products at their home in the Portuguese municipality of Mirandela.

The police shared footage of the arrest on social media to remind citizens that “counterfeiting is a crime”.

The couple was filming a Facebook Live video when they were caught red-handed allegedly selling the illegal goods in their home.

In the footage, the female suspect is seen hawking a pair of trainers with the Adidas logo during the Facebook Live session.

Meanwhile, a collection of bags and other products are seen filling the shelves of a cabinet behind the suspect.

A loud bang is suddenly heard at the front door and the surprised woman goes to check.

A voice is heard saying “police” in the background before shouts fill the air and a cop runs past the camera.

The officer is then seen arresting a man on the floor before turning the camera away.

According to reports, the pair were then placed under arrest and taken to a local cop shop.

The police in Mirandela declined to provide any further information to local media as the investigation continues.

Across the European Union, including in Portugal, there are tough penalties for anyone caught trading in counterfeit goods which the European Commission says is responsible for products that damage health and cause financial loss to tax authorities and companies.

In 2019, the most recent year for which figures are available, imports of counterfeit goods amounted to 119 billion euros (129 billion dollars) – up to 5.8 percent of EU imports.

The total amount of articles detained at the EU’s borders increased in 2019 compared to previous years. Despite the continued efforts of public and private stakehZenger News to turn the tide, counterfeiting is said to be still thriving.

Counterfeiters are also not just confined to luxury goods, with the fakers target goods from a broad variety of industries, such as pharmaceuticals and medical devices, consumer goods (e.g. food and drink, cosmetics and toys), business‑to‑business products (e.g. vehicle spare parts) and IT goods (e.g. phones, chargers and batteries).

The Commission which plans to introduce new initiatives this year determined that the cross‑border nature of the trade in counterfeit goods and their online dissemination means that the Member States alone cannot combat the issue.

Therefore, the EU toolbox against counterfeiting initiative will set up the fight against counterfeiting, focusing on finding ways to improve cooperation and data sharing and encourage the use of new technologies.
