Neil Young's 'awkwardness' has gone down 'very badly' behind-the-scenes at Glastonbury, insiders tell KATIE HIND, as they reveal why his Hollywood bombshell wife Daryl Hannah is expected to skip the festival


The rumour mill went into overdrive after Neil Young was absent from the BBC's Glastonbury coverage schedule. I'm told the rocker's awkwardness has gone down 'very, very badly'...

Indeed, they now have an almost reclusive existence together on their farm in rural Canada, after Daryl - who became a global superstar and 80s pin-up after landing the role as Madison the mermaid in blockbuster movie Splash - turned her back on her acting career. The couple loathe the vacuity of the showbiz lifestyle many of their contemporaries embrace - which perhaps might explain why Neil, 79, has broken all Glastonbury protocol by initially banning the BBC from screening his Saturday night headline set from the festival’s Pyramid stage. In 2017, she told the New Yorker Magazine that during one Cannes Film Festival, Weinstein pounded on her hotel room door so aggressively she was forced to escape through a back entrance and spent the night with her makeup artist.
