March 2025 News Archive – Top Stories
Welcome to the March 2025 roundup. In just a few weeks you could read about a royal wedding dress, a benefit concert for hurricane relief, and two big football surprises. Let’s break down what made the headlines and why they matter.
Royal Fashion Meets History
Princess Margriet of the Netherlands chose a dress that looked like a field of daisies for her 1967 wedding. Designer Caroline Bergé‑Farwick added a detachable train so the princess could dance comfortably, and she wore the historic Pearl Button Tiara. The floral theme wasn’t just pretty; it honored the Dutch resistance during World War II. Today the dress still pops up in royal fashion blogs, proving that a simple flower can carry a powerful story.
Football Surprises and a Benefit Concert
Over in England, Liverpool beat Manchester City 2‑0, pulling further ahead in the Premier League. Luis Diaz returned to the starting line‑up, and Mohamed Salah scored a goal and set up another. City missed big names like Erling Haaland, which made Liverpool’s win feel like a perfect storm of strategy and form. The result tightened the race for the title and left fans buzzing about the next match‑day.
Scotland handed Celtic and Rangers unexpected defeats. Celtic fell 2‑1 to Hibernian after a late scramble, while Rangers were shut out 2‑0 by St Mirren. Those results shuffled the Premiership table and gave smaller clubs a shot at climbing higher. The upsets reminded everyone that the league can turn on a dime.
On the charitable side of things, Ben Folds headlined a benefit concert for Hurricane Helene relief. The show took place at Greenfield Lake Amphitheater in Wilmington on October 29, 2024, but the fundraising push continued through March 2025. Tickets sold out fast, yet fans could still donate to the North Carolina Disaster Relief Fund run by United Way. The effort highlighted how music and community can rally together after a natural disaster.
All these stories share a common thread: they each showcase people or teams stepping up when it counts.
