Claims of the Astronomer saga being predicted by ‘The Simpsons’ have been fact-checked. And, turns out that they’re all false.

Images of Simpson-themed drawings of Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot have been circulating online following the pair’s exposure at Coldplay’s concert in Boston on Wednesday night. Various social media users have stated that the incident was predicted by the show.

“The Simpsons predicted the CEO cheating on his wife at the Coldplay concert!!” one wrote.

“Did the Simpsons really predict the Coldplay Concert incident in a 2003 episode??” another asked.

“So the Simpsons predicted the CEO Andy Byron scandal … 😭😩” one post read.

So Did The Astronomer Fiasco First Appear On ‘The Simpsons?’

While the series appears to have predicted many real-world events, this new saga was not one of them, though there’s a kiss cam scene in one episode.

The images appear to be AI-generated and have never been seen in any episode. We asked an AI bot, which confirmed that “the image does not appear in any official episode of The Simpsons.”

It added:

“Multiple outlets and Simpsons databases confirmed it was AI-generated, likely created using tools like Midjourney or DALL·E.”

As fun as it is to believe that ‘The Simpsons’ called this one, unfortunately, it’s not true.

Fearne Cotton has broken her silence on split from husband Jesse Wood in her first TV interview since the breakup.

Joining Lorraine Kelly on Monday’s episode of the ITV show, the TV presenter, 43, also gave an health update after having two tumours removed from jaw.

Fearne announced her split from Jesse, the son of Rolling Stones bass guitarist Ronnie Wood, in December after 10 years of marriage.

She has since made swipes at Jesse and moved on with TV director Elliot Hegarty, with the pair having been seen kissing during a recent night out.

Fearne has had a difficult few months after undergoing surgery to remove two benign tumours from her jawline, just days before her split with Jesse emerged.

She told host Lorraine: ‘It’s all very amicable and kids are doing great. I am in a very good place.’place.’

Discussing her recent surgery, she added: ‘I feel very grateful to have completely recovered.

‘I feel really good. I have a lot of people reaching out who have had the same thing.’

Davina McCall, 56, announced in November she’d been diagnosed with a colloid cyst, a rare type of benign brain tumour, and has supported Fearne.

She continued: ‘Everyone needs a Davina. She’s been amazing, weird that we had the same health thing going on at the same time. She’s so calming and we speak every day. She is just the best

It comes after Fearne has seemingly made another thinly-veiled dig at her ex-husband as she gushed that she is the happiest she’s ever been in a positive update.

Speaking to Scott Mills on his BBC Radio 2 breakfast show, Fearne gushed that she is ‘really happy’ and is ‘springing out of bed in the morning ready for life’.

Scott, who has known Fearne for 25 years, said he has never seen her ‘more positive or happier’, prompting Fearne to agree and reply: ‘Yeah I feel great!’
