Today’s front pages: Doris Day, wealth inequality and Jeremy Kyle
A round up of the headlines from UK newspapers on 14 May
Several of this morning’s front pages pay tribute to screen star Doris Day, who has died at the age of 97.

Meanwhile, the Financial Times and City AM give their front pages to what the latter calls “Red Mist” - the slide in global stock markets as the tariff feud between China and the US flares anew.
