After announcing the birth of their third child, star quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs Patrick Mahomes shared some insight into how he passed the time at the hospital.
Just after the start of the new year, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes welcomed their second daughter, Golden Raye, into the world on Sunday, January 12.
According to Sports Illustrated, Patrick revealed during a press conference that he managed to sneak in some playoff prep as Brittany prepared for birth.
“I’m just supporting, you know. Brittany crushed it. It’s been cool to welcome another baby girl in our family and see how my other kids react to her,” Patrick said.
“It was cool that football was on TV when I was in the hospital, so I got to watch a little bit,” he revealed.
“Brittany was kind enough to let us watch football as she was getting ready to give birth to our second daughter.”

Patrick and Brittany are also parents to 3-year-old Sterling Skye and 2-year-old Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III.
Patrick was able to be present for the birth of this third child after the Chiefs clinched the top seed in the AFC, giving them a bye the first round of the playoffs.
“It was cool that we got the bye,” he told reporters, according to KSBY, “just cause you can kind of really focus in on just being at the hospital and being in the moment.”
“It’s a special moment that a lot of dads and moms have experienced, and you don’t forget about that stuff. So I was glad I was able to be there and support in the best way I can.”
After Chiefs head coach Andy Reid joked that “once you have three, four and five are easy,” Patrick, who Reid described as a “great” father, said he is “good with three for right now.”
The head-to-toe jean look became iconic in 2001 when Britney Spears and her ex Justin Timberlake commanded attention at the American Music Awards. Spears, for her part, wore a strapless jean dress featuring a patchwork A-line skirt. She added just the right amount of sparkle to her look with a chunky crystal choker and chain belt.
Timberlake, meanwhile, rocked a Canadian tuxedo designed by Levi’s and Jezebel equipped with faded fabric. He teamed the look with a denim hat, tan sunglasses and a silver necklace.
Swift nailed the trend while cheering on her boyfriend Travis Kelce in a Versace corset top and shorts at a Kansas City Chiefs game in September 2024. At the time, she elevated her look with thigh-high maroon Giuseppe Zanotti boots and a Louis Vuitton purse.

Dorinda Medley was just as bummed as Us to get the boot on season 3 of TheTraitors.
The Real Housewives of New York City star, 60, gushed about what fans could have seen if she wasn’t the first to get “murdered” by Danielle Reyes, Carolyn Wiger and Bob the Drag Queen during The Traitors, which aired on January 1. “I went in strong. if you saw my outfits, you would have been very appreciative,” Medley told “Out & About” podcast cohosts Pat McAuliffe and Joey Camasta on Tuesday, January 14.
“I got a screener so I did see [some] of them,” Camasta reassured Medley.
“Yes, but that was only a handful,” she replied, noting she had many more fabulous ensembles packed.
Medley previously gushed to Glamourabout the looks she planned to wear on Traitors in an interview published on Monday, January 13.
“I had the best outfits ever,” she said. “I broke out all my old Vivienne Westwood. I had all my Prada tartans, I had a lot of Libertine. Endless amounts of Burberry. I didn’t get to break out any of it. And the shoe situation was out of control.”

As for her emotional exit, Medley admitted that she wanted fans to feel “both disappointed and angry.” She quipped, “Yeah, that’s a good combo I think for this one. They should feel betrayed.”
During her short time on the show, Medley rocked a number of statement styles, including an Americana red, white and blue patterned jacket with glittery eye embellishments. She teamed the look with a white blouse with an oversized collar, black bedazzled pants and beaded earrings.
Brooke Shields never had a baby with her ex-husband, Andre Agassi — a decision she says turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
“I’m glad I never got pregnant with my first husband because it would have been a disaster,” Shields, 59, wrote in her latest memoir, Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Aging as a Woman, published on Tuesday, January 14. “When we got divorced he made that very clear.”
Shields claimed in her book that Agassi, 54, told her to “be thankful we didn’t have children” when they split “because I would not have made this easy for you.”
“Well, thank you for that tidbit, I thought,” Shields quipped in the memoir. “You just made this particular transition much easier!”
“One of the reasons I married Andre was that I liked being in a relationship with someone more famous than I was,” Shields explained elsewhere in the memoir. “After a lifetime of always being the focus, it was a relief to be able to slink into the background a bit. He was a gallant guy, too, and I loved that.”
On the other hand, Shields called her marriage a “controlling, rigid relationship” and shared a discussion she had with Agassi about her body.
“When I would profess my insecurities to my first husband, he would always say, ‘I wish you could see yourself the way I see you.’ However, when I said, ‘Will you still love me if I’m big and fat?’ I could never have expected his response,” Shields wrote, noting that she was referring to herself as a pregnant woman.
Agassi’s reply, according to Shields, was: “I love you too much to let you get big and fat!”
Shields acknowledged that this was “an unfair question” to ask but she “definitely did not” anticipate that reply.
“I started to spin a bit,” she continued. “But we all know how that relationship turned out, so let’s move on.”
Following their divorce, Shields moved on with Chris Henchy. She met Henchy in 1999 “at the gym on the Warner Bros. lot” while she was still married to Agassi.
“We became friendly because we’d see each other at that gym from time to time — I was working on Suddenly Susan, he was writing for a show on the lot — but we didn’t start to date until the following year, after I’d gotten divorced,” she wrote.
Shields and Henchy married in 2001 and share two daughters, Rowan, 21, and Grier, 18.
Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old is out now.
If we’re ever going to get Jennifer Lopez’sstyle . . . we’re going to have to recreate it. The mega movie and music star is always dressed head-to-toe in designer and if we had her budget, we honestly would too. But for now we don’t, which is why recreated her designer sneaker look — and the style is just $37.
The This Is Me… Now: A Love Story star was spotted in December in some designer shoes we haven’t stopped thinking about since. Shopping at the Brentwood Country Mart is Los Angeles, California, the singer nailed a casual day slay, wearing a Coach herringbone coat, a black Hermès Kelly croc bag, some silver hoop earrings from Jennifer Fisher and oversized dior shades.
She must’ve known she’d be doing a lot of walking, seeing that she reached for the Chloe Kick sneakers, which are a sleek and comfy tennis shoe style. Like with most things J.Lo wears, the shoes were an expensive buy (per our standards), coming in at $690. And since we could use a casual kick style for ourselves, we searched the internet to find a similar version and landed on this $34 style on Amazon.
So, the Belos Lightweight Casual Retro Tennis Shoes aren’t an exact lookalike . . . but they’re close enough to Us! They still have that rich-looking, upscale aesthetic, made with a similar mesh woven upper. They also have a similar neutral color combination, lace-up closure and slip on design.
Of course, the shoes have their differences too. Unlikes the singer’s pick, the shoes are made with a thick rubber sole, which allows for greater traction and shock absorption. They also feature an exposed knit detail around the bottom, which provides added visual interest. You could keep the neutral aesthetic going like Lopez with their cream option, or switch it up with something different. Find them in several color options like multi, gold and black and sizes 5 to 11 too.
They’re “a show stopper,” one buyer exclaimed. After having several people give her compliments on them, the reviewer said that they’re an “ amazing addition” to their collection.
“Not only do they look amazing, they are also very, very comfortable, [are] true to size and are] very well made,” they said.
Lopez’s outfit is a template for how the shoes can be worn for running a few errands, while thrown with some jeans, a t-shirt and your favorite winter coat. They can be styled way beyond just that though. They can go with leggings and sweater outfits for spring travels, and will even be able to go with dresses and skirts once the spring rolls around. They’re not meant for anything drastic like a hike, but they’ll certainly make you look stylish while walking miles.
Maybe one day ( when we win the lottery), we’ll be able to buy Lopez’s actual designer shoe picks. But for now, these make a fantastic lookalike in our closet and our wallets will be singing about them too.

Sunny Hostin and Dr. Emmanuel HostinJoy Malone/Getty Images
Sunny Hostin’s husband, Emmanuel “Manny” Hostin, made headlines after he was named in an insurance fraud lawsuit.
According to legal documents viewed by Us Weekly on January 7, 2025, Emmanuel is one of almost 200 defendants included in a lawsuit filed with the New York Eastern District Court.
The orthopedic surgeon, based in New York, is accused of federal insurance fraud and “getting kickbacks by performing surgery and … billing a company that insured taxi companies and Uber and Lyft drivers,” as reported by the Daily Mail.
Emmanuel’s attorney has denied all the allegations on behalf of his client.
In addition, Sunny has defended her husband and claims that the plaintiff, American Transit, an insurance group that primarily works with ride-share drivers, has “a history of filing frivolous claims.”
Keep reading for an overview of the ongoing case:
Who Is Dr. Emmanuel ‘Manny’ Hostin?
Emmanuel is an orthopedic surgeon based out of New York City with nearly 29 years of experience. He graduated from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in 1996 and is the owner of Hostin Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, a practice the surgeon established in Manhattan in 2006.
Married to Sunny since 1998, the couple share son Gabriel, a student at Harvard University, and daughter Paloma, a student at Cornell University.
What Is Dr. Emmanuel Hostin Being Accused of?
According to the lawsuit viewed by Us, Emmanuel is accused of allegedly and “knowingly” providing “fraudulent medical and other healthcare services including arthroscopic surgeries to Covered Persons through Hostin Orthopaedics.” The surgeon is also accused of fraudulently billing American Transit for the costs.
Emmanuel allegedly perpetrated this fraud “in exchange for kickbacks and/or other compensation which were disguised as dividends or other cash distributions.” He denies the allegations.
What Has Dr. Emmanual Hostin Said About the Lawsuit?
Emmanuel addressed the allegations via his attorney, Daniel John Thwaites, who told the Daily Mail that his client “denies each and every allegation.”
Thwaites added that the lawsuit is a “blanket, scattershot, meritless lawsuit by a near-bankrupt insurance carrier.”
“It is meant to intimidate and harass doctors from collecting for care given to American Transit insureds and their passengers,” Thwaites continued. “American Transit has rushed into the lawsuit without ever conducting an examination of Dr. Hostin or expressing any concerns to his lawyers. The real story here is about an insurance carrier abusing the legal system to limit and restrict health care benefits to its insureds and their passengers, and write off its proper obligations.”
What Has Sunny Hostin Said About the Lawsuit?

In a statement to Entertainment Weekly, Sunny slammed the “frivolous civil lawsuit” against her husband and approximately 200 other doctors.
“In an attempt to poison the well of public opinion because it does not have a valid case against my husband, American Transit instead used my celebrity status to start a disgusting media smear campaign against my husband, which included me and our children,” she said. “They plastered pictures of our family all over tabloid publications.
American Transit is harassing me and my family in a frantic attempt to not pay its bills. Our family will not be intimidated and harassed. We remain unbowed.”
Hostin confirmed she retained Mark Geragos as her attorney and has “put American Transit on notice and will file a $5 million counter lawsuit for their defamatory claims, an amount that is likely to increase as the reputational damage that American Transit has intentionally caused is difficult to quantify at this time.”
“Further, we demand that they withdraw these false allegations, pay my husband what he is owed and issue a public apology,” Sunny continued. “Insurance companies like American Transit make an already broken healthcare system nearly impossible for Americans to navigate and get good healthcare by engaging in despicable tactics like harassing doctors. Let me be clear, where I come from, American Transit will receive a PHD from FAFO University.”

Hallmark Media made headlines in 2022 when they upped their exclusive contracts following a mass exodus of their talent to competitor Great American Media.
“It’s usually for either two movies, and some of them are for a Christmas movie,” Hallmark executive vice president Lisa Hamilton Daly told Deadline in May 2022 of their approach to keeping stars such as Lacey Chabert and Nikki DeLoach. “It’s really to make sure that we have access to that talent during the year.”
While the contract was lucrative, the actress ended the working relationship after just three Flower Shop Mysteries films.
“I’d completed only three when I realized I had to renegotiate. I’d been hired, I was told, to help change the face of the network,” she wrote. “They wanted me to be funny and bring more comedy to their offerings, but as filming progressed on each of the Flower Shop Mysteries — the franchise I was hired to headline — all the humor had evaporated.”
Scroll down to see which Hallmark stars past and present have talked about their respective contracts:

After playing flower shop owner and ex-lawyer Abby Knight in three Flower Shop Mysteries movies in 2016, Shields cut ties with Hallmark.
“Not everything is for everyone, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with the Hallmark Channel — God knows it has a huge fan base — but it was not the future I wanted for my career,” Shields wrote in her Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old memoir, which was released in January 2025. “I’m never against hard work, but I am now a believer in only saying yes to work that serves me.”
The actress realized, “I simply could not do ten more films that were not what I was promised and felt completely wrong for me. So I quit. I definitely surprised some people, and in plenty of ways I surprised myself. I certainly would never have done that in my 20s.”
“I’ve had overall deals with them and in [the terms it says,] I’m gonna commit to five Christmas movies or five movies, but I can’t work for any other network — and they name all the other networks — and they can’t be holiday-related movies,” he explained during an appearance on Tosh Show in December 2023. “So I was able to do [Netflix’s Single All the Way] because I was outside my deal with them.”
The actor noted that Netflix paid less than his Hallmark projects which pay “well.” Macfarlane is also a fan of his residuals from the network.
“They have to air a certain amount of time before you start getting [residuals],” he said of Hallmark. “If you end up doing one of the ones that kind of hits and is popular, it gets aired more and more, so you eventually get residuals.”

Cameron Bure stepped away from her role as Hallmark’s “Queen of Christmas” in April 2022. She gave insight into her decision to move to Great American that September, claiming it was partially because of negotiations.
“The truth is I’ve been under contract with Hallmark for a very, very long time. And those have been absolutely wonderful,” she told Variety at the time. “It just so happened that my contract was expiring when Great American Family started up.”
Cameron Bure — who starred in 18 Aurora Teagarden Mysteries on Hallmark Mysteries — alleged that she waited until the contract was up before talking with Great American Media. “We did not start having those discussions until we were well into negotiations with Hallmark Channel for renewing,” she continued. “And as every businessperson knows, you’ve got to do what’s right for contracts. It didn’t work out with Hallmark and so we started talking to Bill.”

McKellar became a fixture on Hallmark in 2015, but parted ways with the network in October 2021 as one of the first stars to ink a deal with Great American Media. In November 2024, she revealed that she wasn’t under contract with Hallmark at any point.
“At Hallmark, I never had an overall deal. And, with Great American, I had these multi-picture deals,” McKellar claimed during an episode of the “Sex, Lies and Spray Tans” podcast. “They let me be way more involved in the writing and the producing. It is so creatively fulfilling.”
Lindsay Hubbard has been more private when it comes to her relationship with boyfriend Turner Kufe after documenting ups and downs in her personal life for Bravo’s Summer House.
The reality TV star initially dated Kufe briefly in 2020 following her split from Stephen Traversie. The romance fizzled out and Hubbard moved on with costar Carl Radke. Hubbard and Radke got engaged in 2022 after one year of dating but he ultimately ended the engagement in August 2023 — three months before their planned nuptials.
“It was absolutely humiliating. It would’ve been one thing if this conversation happened over the summer during the normal filming schedule,” Hubbard exclusively revealed in her November 2023 Us Weekly cover story. “The whole world found out within 30 minutes of me.”
The split paved the way for Hubbard to reconcile with Kufe, whom she kept out of the public eye when they were initially linked again in early 2024. At the time, Hubbard stood by her decision not to name her partner, who is a doctor working in biotech investing.
“He’s, like, unfazed by it. He’s like, ‘[I] respect you and that’s what you do,’ but he doesn’t care about it,” she explained on the “Bitch Bible” podcast in June 2024 about her boyfriend’s reaction to her job. “He’s successful in his own field and has a great job. He works very hard, is extremely driven and ambitious and, yeah, and keeps me happy in the bedroom.”
One month later, Hubbard announced that she and Kufe were expecting their first child. The pair were excited for the major milestone even if they didn’t initially plan to expand their family so soon into their relationship.
“He’s already the best support system, the best partner,” Hubbard told Us in October 2024. “He comes to every single appointment, whether it’s my OB or an ultrasound scan. He talks to [the baby] every single night. He’ll put my compression socks on before flights, ties my shoes. He’s so sweet. He really is such a great support.”
Hubbard ultimately started to name Kufe as her boyfriend ahead of their daughter Gemma’s arrival in December 2024. Keep scrolling to relive their romance:
Late 2020
According to Hubbard, she dated Kufe “at the end of 2020″ but it didn’t last long.
“We met at the end of 2020 and went on three or four dates. Then he broke things off with me because he just wasn’t in a place to be in a relationship and didn’t want to waste my time,” she said on the “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast in January 2025. “It was very, very respectful.”
Hubbard went on to explore a romance with Radke, whom she briefly dated while filming season 4 of Summer House. They gave their relationship another try and this time that led to an engagement in 2022. Before their wedding nearly one year later, however, Radke called it off in a scene that was captured for their hit Bravo series.
Four months later, Kufe reached back out to Hubbard and they picked up where they left off.

Hubbard and Kufe started officially dating again one month after he initiated contact again. At the time, Hubbard kept his name out of the spotlight out of respect for him and his career.
“Some of my friends call it, like, a boomerang, where you go out the first time, the timing wasn’t right, and then they come back around,” she said on the “Bitch Bible” podcast several months later. “I felt like that lunch that we went on was almost like catching up on the last three years of our lives.”
February 2024
While reflecting on the timeline of their relationship, Hubbard broke down what led to her surprising pregnancy.
“Long story short, I’m not on birth control. It’s never worked for me,” she said on the “Not Skinny But Not Fact” podcast about why she and Kufe preferred the “pull out” method when they started dating again. “The two times in my past lives that I’ve been on birth control, I’ve broken up with boyfriends because it’s just made me f—– nuts.”
She continued: “So it’s just not my thing. It doesn’t work well with my body. And we had the conversation — me and my boyfriend — about how I’m not on birth control. Like, we said [in February], ‘We should just be a little careful.’”
April 2024
Hubbard mentioned on the “Not Skinny But Not Fact” podcast in January 2025 that by April 2024, she was in a serious relationship with Kufe.
“We were calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend at that point, but we had only been, like, dating for two months,” she noted. “We had been calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend for like a month by then. We were a month into exclusivity.”
Three months after they reconnected, Hubbard found out she was pregnant with her first child.
“I just started dating my boyfriend and was like, ‘Oh God. We have only been dating for a couple of months and now I’m pregnant,'” she said on the “Not Skinny But Not Fact” podcast about why she “didn’t tell him right away” about the situation.
“Immediately I was like, ‘I am not looking for a proposal. I’m not looking to get married. It is actually the last thing on my mind,’” she continued. “I was like, ‘I’m not looking to move in together either. Like we can figure that out.’ I just wanted to take everything off the table so that he doesn’t have, like, another layer of things to freak him out.”
Hubbard added: “I gave him every out possible and he looked at me and he was like, ‘No. I want to do this and we’re gonna do this together.’ And he’s like, ‘I love you and we’re gonna do this together.'”
July 2024
“Trigger Warning: This post contains more fireworks than the 4th of July! WE’RE PREGNANT!!!!!,” Hubbard wrote via Instagram at the time with a photo of her and Kufe, who was not seen in the frame. “I truly believe the universe has a bigger plan and this is it! The second I had a feeling, I took a @clearblue Early Digital Pregnancy Test and getting a clear result, in words, made the next steps sooo much easier. My boyfriend and I are beyond excited to welcome our little #HubbCub this Holiday season 2024!!”
“This is not about us being proud of each other or not. He is so beyond proud to be my boyfriend and father of my child, and vice versa,” she wrote via her Instagram Story. “We are very much in love and have a beautiful relationship. This is about his work, his privacy, and the fact that it is not his job to be public like me.”
That same month, Hubbard offered a glimpse into her dynamic with Kufe, telling People, “He’s just so excited to be a dad and proud to be having a child with me. It just means the world to have someone like him by my side.”
She continued: “Yes, it is a lot of pressure on a new relationship, but I think because he’s the right man because we are so bonded and connected and communicate very effectively with each other that it hasn’t felt like work.”
During an exclusive interview with Us, Hubbard compared her romance with Kufe to her past with Radke.
“I think in my past relationship, I wasn’t able to be soft because I had to be the one driving the ship and managing everything — for the relationship, for the future, finances, for that wedding,” she explained to Us. “I had to be the hard one, and I wasn’t given the opportunity [to be soft].”
October 2024

“I am pregnant and having a kid really soon. So it all worked out,” she told Us ahead of her daughter’s arrival. “As hard as it is in those moments to trust the process, it is [all about] understanding that everything happens for a reason and that the universe does have your back.”
Hubbard gushed over Kufe’s support for her. “He is the most excited. He is so in love with her. I can’t even explain it. He cannot wait to meet her. He talks to her all the time,” she shared. “I swear she knows when it’s him either pressing on my belly or his voice talking to her because she just starts kicking like crazy. He’s really, really excited. I’m really lucky to have a very involved dad in him.”
“He comes to every single appointment, whether it’s my OB or an ultrasound scan,” she shared. “He talks to [the baby] every single night. He’ll put my compression socks on before flights, ties my shoes. He’s so sweet. He really is such a great support.”
“Even though technically this is my apartment, this is our HQ for the home of our daughter and me,” she told People. “He basically brought over a bunch of clothes and toiletries and is essentially going between my apartment and his apartment, but rarely ever leaves me and Gemma.”
As his team prepares for the College Football Playoff National Championship, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman is reportedly a hot commodity within the NFL job market.
Near the top of the list of interested parties is the Chicago Bears, according to the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
“The Bears have done extensive research for months on Marcus Freeman,” Pelissero reported on Sunday, January 12. “He is only 39 years old. It would not be a shock if at some point he at least considers going to the NFL.”
Chicago fired head coach Matt Eberflus in November 2024 after a 4-8 start to the season. Interim head coach Thomas Brown finished the season with the Bears, who ended the year 5-12. Brown, the team’s former offensive coordinator, will not return as head coach.
“Freeman is in the midst of a magical run with the Fighting Irish to the National Championship Game,” Pelissero continued. “Obviously unlikely that he would entertain NFL overtures prior to that game.”
Notre Dame takes on The Ohio State University in the College Football Playoff National Championship on Monday, January 20 from Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, attempting to win the school’s first national title since 1988.
Just weeks ago, ESPN’s Heather Dinichreported that Freeman signed “a long-term contract extension, believed to be a four year extension that locks him up for six more years.” Financial details of the contract were not officially disclosed.
“He did sign that deal recently. I don’t know whether that’s leverage or not. I have no idea. I don’t have direct information beyond that,” Schefter, 58, added.
Freeman confirmed he had signed a new contract with Notre Dame in a December 2024 statement.
“The investment they continue to pour into our program is invaluable to our student-athletes and staff,” Freeman said. “This commitment goes well beyond myself, as they are dedicated to ensuring all aspects of our program are competitive within the upper echelon of college football.”
The Bears have already officially completed multiple interviews with potential head coaches to fill their vacancy, including former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn and Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver.
The team has an interview scheduled for former Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy on Wednesday, December 15.

“•Golden Raye Mahomes• 1/12/25,” the pair wrote in a joint Instagram post on Monday, January 13, alongside a black-and-white picture of the newborn’s feet.
The upload was quickly filled with congratulatory messages from fans and loved ones, with some celebs also subtly supporting the pair. Patrick’s Kansas City Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, sent her well-wishes by dropping a “like” on the post.
Ahead of the little one’s arrival, Patrick got candid about his thoughts on whether he and Brittany would continue to expand their family. (Patrick and Brittany, who wed in 2022, are also parents to daughter Sterling, 3, and son Bronze, 2.)
“I’m done, I’ll say that,” he told reporters at a Chiefs training camp press conference in July 2024. “I said three and I’m done.”

Hugh Jackman’s estranged wife Deborra-Lee Furness appears to be focused on family as she continues navigating a new chapter of her life.
Nearly a week after the Tony-winning actor debuted his new relationship with Sutton Foster, Furness, 69, decided to enjoy a day at the Australian Open with her and Jackman’s 19-year-old daughter, Ava.
The mother-daughter duo stepped out on Tuesday, January 14, to watch an exciting match between Daniil Medvedev and Kasidit Samrej at Melbourne Park in Australia.
Furness wore a bright purple jacket with blue tinted sunglasses as she cheered on her favorite players. As for Ava, she was spotted enjoying the game before briefly resting her head on her mom’s shoulders.
Jackman, 56, and Furness announced their split in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage. At the time, the couple — who also share 23-year-old son Oscar — asked for privacy as their family “navigates this transition.”
“We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,” the pair said in a joint statement. “Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.”

Sources exclusively told Us Weekly in November 2024 that a romance between Jackman and Foster, 49, sparked while the twosome started working together on the Broadway production of The Music Man the year prior.
The pair didn’t confirm their romance, however, until earlier this month, when they were photographed holding hands after enjoying a dinner date in Santa Monica, California on January 6.
Days later, the PDA continued when the couple was photographed in a car while in the drive-thru at a local In-N-Out burger location.
According to the Daily Mail, the pair shared several kisses as they sat in the front seat of the vehicle. Jackman was on the driver’s side while Foster sat in the passenger’s seat.
“They’re happier than ever,” a source told Us Weekly in November 2024 before shining a light on what the pair admires about each other.
According to the insider, Jackman adores Foster’s “immense talent, infectious positivity and grounded nature” as she continues her West Coast run of Once Upon a Mattress. As for Foster, she is drawn to her new beau’s “kindness, professionalism and ability to make others feel valued.”
Suki Waterhouse knows exactly how to pull off denim shorts in the winter.
While leather shorts and tights are having a huge moment this winter, Waterhouse, 33, changed up the style for denim shorts instead. Waterhouse, 33, demonstrated how to wear the cutoffs in winter while out and about in New York City on Monday, January 13. For her chilly outing, the model wore blue jean shorts featuring fringed bottoms. To keep her legs a bit warmer, she wore sheer black tights underneath.
The singer teamed her look with a brown knit top, a $1,790 fur coat from Isabel Marant and leather western style boots featuring gold hardware, also from the fashion house. Waterhouse accessorized with oval Kate Young x Tura Ivy sunglasses featuring brown frames and stacked silver rings.
She hooked a black leather bag over her shoulder and put in headphones while walking through the Big Apple. The Daisy Jones & The Six alum went makeup free and pushed her honey blonde hair back.
While she may have put her legs on display this time, Waterhouse previously covered up in suede pants last month in New York City.

Ahead of the holidays, she looked chic in a ruffled cream blouse from Chloé ($1,790), which she wore underneath a $4,490 brown leather Chloé coat with a fur neckline and cuffs. As Waterhouse made an appearance on the Kelly Clarkson Show that same day, she dropped in a number of stacked rings from Vrai, Suzanne Kalan and Yvonne Leon.
Waterhouse tied her look together with a baby blue Chloé bag ($2,350) and the label’s Georgia Ankle Boot ($1,290.)
For her appearance, she donned glittery eyeshadow, long lashes and rosy cheeks. Her hair was parted down the middle and loosely curled. A sartorial and glam win-win!

Princess Kate Middleton announced that she is officially in remission while sharing an update on her cancer journey. In a statement shared via Instagram on Tuesday, January 14, the 43-year-old thanked the staff of The Royal Marsden in the U.K. for their help throughout her treatment. “My heartfelt thanks goes to all those who have quietly walked alongside William and me as we have navigated everything. We couldn’t have asked for more. The care and advice we have received throughout my time as a patient has been exceptional,” she wrote. Kate initially revealed in March 2024 that she was diagnosed with a form of cancer after undergoing abdominal surgery. By September 2024, she had completed her chemotherapy treatments. Kate noted on Tuesday that it’s “a relief” to be in remission, adding, “As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal.” Keep reading for more of Us Weekly’s top stories:

Southern Charm’s Madison LeCroy is always sharing her tips and tricks when it comes to her diet and fitness routines.
LeCroy began her wellness journey by completing the 75 Soft Challenge in summer 2024 and before transitioning into 75 Hard for 2025. Both 75 Soft and 75 Hard are fitness challenges created by author and entrepreneur Andy Frisella. The programs encourage participants to stick to six strict lifestyle rules for 75 days straight.
As part of the respective 75 challenges, LeCroy has done Pilates workout sessions, cold plunges, sauna sweats and other exercises. While LeCroy has done her fair share of classes in a gym, she also has a state-of-the-art home gym where she does a majority of her training.
In addition to the fitness aspect, LeCroy has also implemented healthy recipes into her diet, including her go-to big breakfast salad. Most of the reality star’s creations are alternatives to classic junk food options.
Keep scrolling to see some of LeCroy’s best advice during her health and wellness journey:
New Year Motivation

As LeCroy jumped into her new year’s fitness resolution, she shared some motivating words of encouragement for those who were struggling.
“It’s that first week of January where we were all like, ‘Alright I’m over this, I’m over Dry January, I’m over eating healthy and working out every day.’ But we’re going to keep going,” she declared in a January 2024 TikTok video. “We’re gonna be strong, we’re gonna be healthy — that’s the main key for all of this.”
LeCroy then shared what her workout of the day entailed: stretching, a treadmill run, a 45-minute sauna session and a three-minute cold plunge.
Off the Wagon
The Bravo personality took to TikTok to open up about how she strayed away from her diet.
“Can I tell you what I ate today? So I worked out, sat in the sauna, lost some more weight. Then I ate a big-ass Philly cheesesteak foot-long sub with a side of six wings medium-well or hot, with blue cheese. Literally, I stuck a straw in the blue cheese and drank that s—,” she recalled in a January 2024 TikTok. “Last night, I had a tuna sandwich with both bread and Mountain Dew.”
In the video caption, LeCroy added she wanted to grieve in “peace.”
Team Cottage Cheese

LeCroy introduced her followers to one of her go-to snacks, which she likes to make with vegetables and cottage cheese.
“If you don’t like cottage cheese, swipe up and grow up,” LeCroy joked in an April 2024 TikTok. “I heard somebody else say that and I was like, ‘Valid.’ So normally what I would do is cottage cheese and then I will end up adding red pepper flakes, truffle salt — which I’m obsessed with. I add a few veggies. If you actually want to add more protein to this, you could do a hard-boiled egg.”
While LeCroy didn’t want to spend the time boiling an egg, she did add everything bagel seasoning to give her dish some crunch.
Beauty Sleep Prep
In addition to diet and exercise, LeCroy also makes getting a restful slumber a priority. In an April 2024 TikTok, she showed off her recipe for a drink she likes to indulge in before bed.
“Doing my sleepy girl mocktail. Tart cherry juice, this is the one I like,” she said while holding up the drink bottle to the camera. “Y’all know I’ve been doing this since January. Went a little heavy … on the magnesium.”
LeCroy added that adding some cherries gives the beverage more of a cocktail feel.
Baking Mishaps
Courtesy of Madison LeCroy/Instagram
LeCroy showed off to her followers in a May 2024 TikTok that she was going to make a cake using a boxed mix from the grocery store.
“Alright, we’re making a cake, yellow with chocolate icing. There’s nothing skinny about this,” she teased before being joined by husband Brett Randle. “Fun fact, Brett is a baker … so he despises that I actually do [from a box] vs. from scratch.”
While preparing the cake mix, LeCroy realized she didn’t have enough eggs and had to send Randle out to borrow some from a neighbor. After securing the eggs, LeCroy and Randle found themselves in another baking catastrophe as the cake started to crumble while they were frosting it.
“This looks like the cake from Matilda. It was going well last time,” she said. “It’s all about how it tastes, it’s a lava cake!”
Rocky Start
As LeCroy began her journey with 75 Soft, she faced some struggles as she began the new lifestyle transition.
“I am day two on 75 Soft, I know you’ve heard of 75 Hard, but let’s be honest. I’m not gonna go 75 days through the summer and on vacation and not have a pina colada,” LeCroy said in a June 2024 TikTok video. “So my problem with this is the water intake. I did my size and height and I’m supposed to take in 96 ounces of water a day, which is six pounds. I feel like I’m f—ing drowning.”
LeCroy joked that she felt like she was being “poisoned” by drinking so much liquid. While the reality star shared her frustration with the task, she admitted she knew she’d be “happy” once she started seeing results.
Getting Salty

LeCroy got candid about why she’s not afraid to add a healthy amount of salt and other seasonings to her meals.
“I kind of put the salt everywhere,” she said in a June 2024 TikTok. “I know that people are like, ‘It’s bad for you.’ But I think if you’re sweating and you’re doing sauna and all that kind of stuff, you can get away with having a little salt. It’s not gonna kill you.”
Giving Things Another Try
LeCroy was making another healthy snack recipe and wanted to include an ingredient she’s not usually fond of.
“I’m going to be completely honest with you guys. I am not a plain yogurt fan,” she admitted in an August 2024 TikTok. “It tastes like sour cream to me, but I’m trying to get better at it.”
While LeCroy was not a fan of the yogurt’s smell, she decided to make a parfait with honey, granola and berries. After taking a bite, LeCroy was pleasantly surprised by how good it tasted.
Fasting Cleanse

In August 2024, LeCroy participated in the five-day program from Prolon which mimicked a fasting diet and gave her followers updates on how it was going.
“I’ve been doing these probably three times a year. I’m going out of town so I need to lean out the fluff,” she said in a TikTok while preparing one of Prolon’s soups. “You get crackers [with the meal], so I like to break them up and I’ll split it since I only get soup for dinner.”
In a follow-up video, LeCroy shared that she typically does not do intense workouts while on the cleanse but will do her typical cold plunge sessions. For day three, LeCroy confessed that this was the “hardest day” of the program and she made a “mistake” by weighing herself.
“I was only down, like, a pound and a half, and you don’t see that weight until you wake up on the sixth day because it’s only five days,” she reflected in a TikTok. “The reason why day three is pretty hard is because you’re kind of limited … you don’t get the olives and instead of snacks you just get tea.”
“Abs are checked in. Thank goodness,” she said in a clip while showing off her toned stomach. “Now I can go get bloated on vacation and enjoy all the food and drinks that I possibly can consume.”
Comfort Food Dupes
LeCroy always has a few recipes up her sleeve that mimic some of her favorite dishes, one being mac and cheese.
“So I am going to make something that is not healthy but it is better than macaroni and cheese as far as health goes,” she said in August 2024 TikTok. “It’s still got a lot of cream and cheese and all the Southern things every casserole and their mama has. It’s a squash casserole.”
The TV personality noted that she typically cuts up six squash before boiling them and then combining them with cream, cheese and seasonings. Once the meal was ready, LeCroy paired the dish with a salad.
Guilt-Free Snacks
Courtesy of Madison LeCroy/TikTok
LeCroy got a hankering for something to nosh on after dinner.
“I’ll do the kale. Now don’t swipe up yet, because I promise you this is [good],” she said in September 2024 TikTok as she filled up a bowl with kale. “It does dehydrate ’cause we’re going to use the air fryer. You could use an oven, but this is just the easy way.”
Before popping the leafy green into the air fryer, LeCroy sprayed the kale with olive oil cooking spray, salt and ranch seasoning. LeCroy gushed that she finds this recipe to be “better than popcorn” and tastes like a “cool ranch Dorito.”
Her Kitchen Essentials
In January 2025, LeCroy took to her Instagram Story to share that she was starting the 75 Hard challenge and wanted to give fans a glimpse of what her meal planning entailed.
“Nothing fancy! The meals I’m sharing are exactly what they look like. If you see a turkey patty, it’s straight from the store — no secret recipes, no homemade sauces and definitely no lettuce fresh from my garden (because I don’t have one!),” she wrote at the time. “I simply make foods and meals I enjoy, especially when I’m working on a program like 75 Hard. I’m happy y’all are excited about it!”

Jessica Simpson’s Los Angeles home is back on the market amid the ongoing wildfires and her split from her estranged husband, Eric Johnson.
Simpson’s house is currently for sale at an asking price of $17.9 million — over $4 million less than her original $22 million price point, Us Weekly can confirm. Simpson purchased the property from Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne for $11.5 million in 2013 and later put it up for sale in September 2023. After initially taking it off the market in August 2024, Simpson relisted the home on Saturday, January 11.
According to Zillow, the home features seven bedrooms, 13 bathrooms and sits on 2.25 acres in the “highly sought-after guard-gated community of Hidden Hills.” Built in 2001, the property also features a formal dining room, a spiral staircase, floor-to-ceiling windows, a state-of-the-art kitchen, a family room with “beamed vaulted ceilings” and a master bedroom with walk-in closets and a stone fireplace.
In addition to “a guest house complete with a kitchenette, and an intricately paneled study featuring a warm fireplace,” the home’s other amenities include a pool and spa, a “BBQ island” and an outdoor shower and bathroom
Simpson’s real estate listing was reactivated just days after Santa Ana winds caused wildfires to spread across the greater Los Angeles area, destroying homes, schools, businesses and forcing thousands to evacuate. The singer seemingly announced that she and her family fled from their home in a Thursday, January 9, Instagram Story. “We stayed as long as we could ,” she wrote alongside a since-expired snap of smoke approaching her house.
News of Simpson relisting her home also comes shortly after she and Johnson, 45, announced their split after 10 years of marriage. “Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage,” Simpson said in a statement to Us Weekly on Monday, January 13. “Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family.” (The pair share kids Maxwell, 12, Ace, 11, and Birdie, 5.)

The exes, who wed in 2014, sparked split rumors in November 2024 after Simpson teased via Instagram that her upcoming music comeback was “personal,” writing, “It’s an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve.”
That same month, a source exclusively confirmed to Us that Simpson and Johnson were “living separately,” while another added that they were “trying to figure out a separation without disrupting their kids’ lives as much as possible.”
Despite going their separate ways, a different source later told Us that the estranged spouses planned to spend the holidays together with their kids. “It’s all about the kids and family,” the insider explained in November 2024. “They don’t hate each other.”
The actors began working together during season 6 of the Hallmark Channel series playing Nathan Grant and Fiona Miller, respectively. While their characters aren’t romantically involved, McGarry and Wallace sparked a real-life relationship off camera.
McGarry confirmed they were dating via social media in November 2020. Less than two years later, the couple starred in their first rom-com for the network, Feeling Butterflies, which aired in March 2022.
The twosome teamed up for Hallmark’s Christmas in July film My Grown-Up Christmas List. In the movie, Wallace portrayed Taylor Nichols, while McGarry played Luke Malone.
“The trick to my treat. It’s like being in a loving caring, magical relationship with the house that gives full size chocolate bars!” the Christmas Scavenger Hunt actor wrote via Instagram in a tribute to his love. “Happy Birthday Darling xx @imkaylawallace.”
Wallace showed McGarry support ahead of the premiere of his holiday film, Checkin’ It Twice, which premiered on Hallmark October 20. She reposted the movie’s poster via her Instagram Story, adding a red heart emoji alongside a tag with his name.
McGarry confirmed at the annual Hearties Family Reunion fan event that he and Wallace had tied the knot. “That ring on your finger, I hope it’s not a prop,” a panel host asked him in an Instagram clip from the event. McGarry responded, “No, it’s not a prop,” before flashing his wedding band for attendees. He did not share additional details about their nuptials at the time.
“Her smile is my favorite thing. I’m so happy I get to look at it for the rest of my life,” McGarry gushed about Wallace via Instagram. “Happy Kayla-ween to my beautiful wife. Xo 🎃 Happy birthday 🎈.”
The following month, McGarry sang his wife’s praises while supporting her debut on the Paramount+ series Landman. “So incredibly proud of my beautiful, movie star wife! Xo @landmanpplus premieres Nov 17th on @paramountplus,” he captioned a series of social media photos of Wallace on the red carpet.
“A story about the people and families that work the oil patch to supply America with its largest export!” McGarry added. “An exceptionally talented team of writers, actors, and crew create a story that’s suspenseful, horrific, exciting, but above all heartbreakingly human. Can’t wait for the world to see it, Darlin.”
Wallace exclusively told Us Weekly about her and McGarry’s dynamic, revealing how they coordinate working apart. “Kevin and I have been really lucky that our schedules have kind of flip-flopped,” she said. “We've just been incredibly lucky with timing.”
The actress noted that they “hope” they can continue to “be in the same city with each other as the other person's filming” but acknowledged that it’s a “struggle” at times.
“There's travel involved in this career, so we've just been super lucky so far that we've been able to be together in both cities,” she added.
Wallace also teased that fans could see them reunite for future When Calls the Heart episodes. “I can say that there’s a chance that I will return,” she said.

Royal heirlooms stand the test of time, and the tradition of passing down precious jewels has spanned many a monarchy, from Queen Elizabeth II to Princess Diana and beyond.
Meghan Markle is the proud owner of several of Diana’s jewels and other royal heirlooms – a dazzling collection she’s been building for decades – after the former Princess of Wales left a letter prior to her death with her accessory wishes: “I would like you to allocate all my jewelry to the share to be held by my sons, so that their wives may, in due course, have it or use it.”
Just as Prince Harry’s mom did for her children, now Markle, 46, is following in Diana’s well-heeled footsteps, by reserving one particularly special piece for her daughter, Lilibet, 3, who will inherit the luxury piece when she’s 18. The item in question is a two-tone Cartier Tank watch, which Markle purchased for herself in 2015 when Suits was green-lit for a third season.

“I’ve always coveted the Cartier French Tank watch,” she told Hello! at the time. “When I found out Suits had been picked up for our third season… [it] felt like such a milestone — I totally splurged and bought the two-tone version.”
Markle continued: “I had it engraved on the back, ‘To M.M. From M.M.’ and I plan to give it to my daughter one day. That’s what makes pieces special, the connection you have to them.”

In fact, at that point, Markle hadn’t even met Prince Harry when she purchased the precious watch, which currently retails for just under $9,000. While she had yet to enter her motherhood era, Markle was already set on passing on the timeless watch to her future daughter.
Harry, 40 gifted her with a second style seven years later: none other than Princess Diana’s Cartier Tank Watch, which is among the most items in Markle’s coffer. In fact, she rarely takes it off.

The Archwell Foundation cofounder was first spotted wearing the iconic wristwatch in 2022 when she and Harry attended a reception for the Invictus Games.
Markle and her daughter’s coordinating Cartier Tank watches will be a heartfelt link between the late Princess Diana, the Duchess of Sussex and Lilibet — the wee Windsor royal in training.
90 Day Fiancéis full of surprises and season 11 promises to be no different.
On Tuesday, January 14, TLC shared the first trailer for a history-making season that will include the franchise’s first-ever throuple.
“I love being married to Matt,” Amani — who identifies as bisexual — says in a sneak preview. “I love being a mom, but we have a third in our relationship.”
According to TLC, Matt and Amani have been married for 10 years and are raising two daughters in a beautiful San Diego, California, neighborhood. Beneath the surface, the couple has explored being in a polyamorous relationship to keep their marriage in balance.
After falling in love with Any — a single mother and exotic dancer from Tijuana, Mexico — the couple is faced with the challenge of figuring out their next steps.
“Fiancé visa, how does that work when you guys are already married?” someone asks in the trailer. Matt replies, “We were thinking about separating.”
Before changing their relationship status, however, Matt and Amani will travel to Mexico to spend quality time with Any’s family and friends to confirm they are making the right decision.
While Matt, Amani and Any are new to the franchise — along with three other couples — season 11 of 90 Day Fiancé will also feature a few familiar faces.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way stars Shekinah and Sarper are back together in Los Angeles. Before things get very serious, however, Sarper must win the approval of Shekinah’s family, including her daughter, Sofie.
Discovery
Season 11 will also feature two couples from 90 Day Fiancé: Love in Paradise, including Shawn and Alliya, who continue to struggle with their 30-year age gap. In addition, Shawn has kept much of his relationship with Alliya a secret from his friends and family.
As for Jessica and Juan, trouble mounts for the couple as they struggle adapting to their new living situation in America. Jessica’s doubts about Juan’s ability to embrace a major role shift — from a carefree cruise ship bartender to full-time dad — causes some emotional moments for the couple, all captured by TLC cameras.
90 Day Fiancé became one of the highest-rated unscripted cable series of 2024 after cameras captured the riveting journeys of intercultural couples — Americans and their foreign fiancés — as they navigate the thrilling complexities of love, cultural differences and societal pressures.
With just 90 days to wed before their K1 visas expire, these couples need to overcome significant hurdles or face the heartbreaking reality of separation.
90 Day Fiancé returns to TLC Sunday, February 16, at 8 p.m. ET.
