EDDIE REDMAYNE has revealed that he is revelling in his new, and most important, role to date - being a father to his newborn daughter Iris Mary. "Well, it's only seven weeks in, but it's amazing. It's wonderful," he said. "All of the stuff you've heard for years, it's all true but utterly extraordinary." "The notion of coming to Brazil and Rio was extraordinary," he told Hello! magazine. "And the idea of bringing Iris on her first trip abroad to the Olympics in Brazil was too much of an extraordinary opportunity to turn down." Redmayne also revealed that he has been making the most of his trip by taking midnight trips up to landmarks such as the iconic Christ The Redeemer statue that towers over the Brazilian city, as well as indulging in some beach action. "All you need to do in Rio is just sit on Copacabana and let it all wash over you," he said. "In my case, apply a lot of sun cream! But generally, just try and take in the atmosphere by osmosis." (

Hungarian swimmer Katinka Hosszu won!!! Even as they chase history, Katie Ledecky and Michael Phelps could be overshadowed by Katinka Hosszu, who won the 200-meter individual medley on Tuesday, adding to her wins in the 100-meter backstroke and 400-meter individual medley. Hosszu, of Hungary, joined the likes of Shane Gould, Janet Evans, Kornelia Ender and Inge de Bruijn as triple gold medalists in individual events in a single Games.
