The 2025 Golden Globes kicked off awards season in stunning fashion — and thanks especially to host Nikki Glaser it was a night to remember.

The 82nd Annual Golden Globes aired live on Sunday, January 5, from Beverly Hills, California, honoring the best performances in both film and television. Glaser, meanwhile, made history as the first woman to solo emcee the event and slayed her opening monologue trolling Glen Powell, Ben Affleck, Timothée Chalamet and more.

Going into the awards show, FX’s The Bear and Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building had the most TV nominations with five and four, respectively. Netflix’s musical-thriller Emilia Pérez topped the movies nominations with 10 total. The Brutalist followed with seven nods.

While seeing who won is the purpose of the event, fans were, as usual, treated to electric and heartwarming speeches (Us is looking at you, Demi Moore) and hilarious, meme-worthy skits from presenters including Catherine O’Hara and Seth Rogen.

The stars of Emilia Pérez might’ve stolen the show with their four wins — but you can be the judge of the best moments from this year’s show.

Scroll down for Us Weekly’s roundup of the buzziest moments throughout the 2025 Golden Globes:

Medal-Worthy Red Carpet

Zendaya and Ariana Grande were just two of the standout style stars at this year’s Golden Globes. Zendaya, who was nominated for The Challengers, wore a dramatic custom Louis Vuitton gown with matching pumps.

Grande, meanwhile, paid homage to her Wicked character, Glinda, with her pale-yellow Hubert de Givenchy gown from 1966. “It’s yellow because of the yellow brick road,” the actress told Variety while walking the red carpet. “And it’s one of Glinda’s favorite colors.”

Glaser, 40, brought the laughs and gasps during her opening monologue, calling the awards show “Ozempic’s biggest night.” While she promised not to “roast” the A-listers in attendance she couldn’t help but troll a few.

After praising Chalamet, 29, for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown she poked fun at his facial hair, saying, “You have the most gorgeous eyelashes on your upper lip.”

The comedian applauded Powell, 36, for being “in everything” in 2024 including “my head when I’m having sex with my boyfriend.” Glaser teased, “Thank you for the assist.”

Glaser didn’t avoid more controversial fare either, throwing a Sean “Diddy” Combs joke in for good measure.

“Zendaya is here. Zendaya, you were incredible in Dune [2]. Oh, my God, I woke up for all of your scenes. You were so good,” she said. “And Challengers, girl? It was so good. I mean, that movie was more sexually charged than Diddy’s credit card.” (Diddy, 55, was arrested in September 2024 for sex trafficking and more charges but has pleaded not guilty. He is awaiting trial later this year.)

Kieran Culkin Gets Tipsy

“I’m feeling a little …” Culkin, 42, said while shaking his hand to make a woozy-type gesture during his acceptance speech for Best Supporting Actor, Motion Picture. “My wife and I did this shot of tequila with Mario Lopez.”

He confessed, “Definitely feeling that. Little speech is gone. Rip it, Kiernan. You’re doing fine!”

The A Real Pain actor then took a jab at the traditional playoff music, telling the crowd, “A couple of quick thank yous then I’ll piss off.” He proceeded to thank his “gorgeous wife” Jazz Charton, his manager and his mom before exiting the stage.

The star also turned heads for his temporary tattoos on his forearm and wrist full of friendship bracelets, which fans suspected could be courtesy of his kids.

Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner Top the Hottest Couples’ List

Low-key couple Chalamet and Jenner, 27, made a rare appearance at the Los Angeles awards show. Although they didn’t walk the red carpet together, the pair were spotted looking cozy inside the venue alongside Chalamet’s A Complete Unknown castmates.

Selena Gomez and fiancé Benny Blanco also turned heads during the show after Glaser gave them a shout-out in her monologue. “Benny Blanco is here because of the genie who granted him that wish. Man, lucky guy,” Glaser teased as Gomez, 32, let out a laugh.

Two of Hollywood’s favorite married couples, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons and Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, also had Us talking after they stepped out on the red carpet in sizzling style.

Seth Rogen and Catherine O’Hara Represent for Canada

The Canadian actors brought the laughs while presenting the award for Best Performance by a Female Actor, Limited Series, Anthology Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television. (Jodie Foster won for True Detective: Night Country.)

O’Hara, 70, kicked things off, saying, “What an honor it is to be here, at one of America’s most prestigious award shows. And while I’m grateful to have won a Golden Globe.” Rogen, 42, chimed in, “And I’m grateful to have been in a thing that has won a golden globe, we’re actually both much more acclaimed for our Canadian work.”

The two proceeded to joke about their stereotypically Canadian roles that no one has heard of, including O’Hara’s “golden antler” award for “her work as mama Morissette in The Alanis Morissette Story,” according to Rogen.

“What about you and your brave golden antler win?” O’Hara asked Rogen. “Your return as young Ryan in Gosling, the unauthorized Ryan Gosling biopic.”

Rogen teased, “It was unauthorized” but it “felt very important to depict.” The actors, who were both born in Canada, continued to joke about O’Hara’s fictional “Otter’s Tale” movie and Rogen’s “Moose Knuckles Trilogy” before leaving the stage.

Demi Moore Gives Us Chills

Moore gave Us all the feels with her acceptance speech for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy for her work in The Substance.

“I’m just in shock right now. I’ve been doing this a long time, like, over 45 years, and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything as an actor,” she began. “And I am just so humbled and so grateful.”

Moore recalled a producer telling her decades ago that she was a “popcorn actress” which led her to believe that winning awards was “not something I was allowed to have.”

“That I could do movies that were successful and made a lot of money, but that I couldn’t be acknowledged, and I bought in and I believed that,” she revealed. “That corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it, maybe I was complete, maybe I had done what I was supposed to do. And as I was at kind of a low point, I had this magical, bold, courageous, out-of-the-box, absently bonkers script come across my desk called The Substance.”

'Emilia Perez' Takes Home the Most Movie Wins at 2025 Golden Globes

Moore took the script as a sign from the “universe” telling her, “You are not done.” She gushed about the project and the film’s team who championed her every step of the way.

“I will just leave you with one thing that I think this movie is imparting. In those moments when we don’t think we are smart enough or pretty enough or skinny enough or successful enough, or basically just not enough,” she added. “I had a woman say to me, ‘Just know you will never be enough, but you can know the value of your worth if you just put down the measuring stick.’”

Moore concluded: “So today I celebrate this as a marker of my wholeness and of the love that is driving me, and the gift of doing something I love and being reminded that I do belong. Thank you so much.”

Audrey Plaza Skips Show After Heartbreaking Loss

Plaza, 40, was initially slated to present during the awards show. She ultimately chose not to attend — and didn’t present as scheduled — after a sudden death in her family.

The actress’ husband, Jeff Baena, was found dead on Friday, January 3, at their Los Angeles home. Us later confirmed the screenwriter died by suicide. He was 47.

Although Plaza wasn’t on hand to participate in the event, she was honored by The Brutalist writer and director, Brady Corbet, during his acceptance speech for Best Director, Motion Picture. “My heart is with Aubrey Plaza and Jeff’s family,” he said to conclude his speech.

Surprising TV Show Shut-Outs

Fans were stunned when beloved series Only Murders in the Building was shut out completely during the awards show after being nominated for four categories. Nobody Wants This was also left without any wins following their three nods, while Abbott Elementary lost both of its two categories.

Diesel, 57, caused a stir when he took the stage to present the trophy for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement. The Fast and the Furious star paused to greet his frenemy Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson — who he has feuded with on and off since 2016 — during an awkward moment. “Hey, Dwayne,” Diesel said as the camera panned to Johnson, who just smiled and laughed from the audience.

‘Emilia Perez’ and ‘The Brutalist’ Win Big

Netflix’s Emilia Pérez, which stars Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón and Gomez, came out on top in four film categories.

Earlier in the broadcast, Saldaña took home the trophy for Best Supporting Female Actor, Film.

'Sister Wives' Star Kody Recalls 'Devastating' Loss of Virginity in College

Kody Brown Recalls Devastating Loss of Virginity
TLC

Kody Brown let his walls down during the latest episode of Sister Wives and shared the truth about when he lost his virginity.

“You want to know the craziest thing?” Kody, 55, asked viewers during the Sunday, January 5, episode of the TLC series. “I had a lover in college, and it was a little tryst.”

The reality star confessed he was “a naughty boy based on my faith” because of his dalliance in school. “I had a relationship in college where I lost my virginity,” he shared. “It was devastating to me. It was heartbreaking.”

Kody explained that since “purity” was “everything” in his childhood church, having sex out of wedlock messed with him. “It’s like you’re working your way back for it,” he told the cameras, reiterating, “It is devastating.”

Kody Brown Is Sister Wives' Antihero — and Wouldn't Have It Any Other Way

Kody — who went on to father 15 children with his four wives — revealed that “nobody knew” about his college hookup except for first wife Meri Brown and fourth wife Robyn Brown.

“It was really because I don’t believe I ever got intimate enough with [my other wives] Christine [Brown] and Janelle [Brown] to tell them,” he continued, noting that Robyn, 46, learned about his past within the “first month we knew each other.”

Kody said his ability to tell Robyn such an intimate detail about his life was because he “felt safe” with her from the start.

“I’m not safe with them and they’re not safe with me,” he said of Janelle, 55, and Christine, 52.

Kody Brown Wonders If He Can 'Adjust' to Monogamy With Final Wife Robyn

Kody’s confession was prompted by a conversation he had with Robyn during the episode about whether he ever loved his first three wives completely. (Christine and Kody split in November 2021. Janelle announced her separation in December 2022 and Meri, 53, confirmed their breakup in January 2023.)

“You were in love when you married them and, like, when you were together, right, like, in the beginning?” Robyn asked her husband.

He grimaced before answering his spouse, saying, “Don’t make me compare, please.” Kody explained that he “didn’t know” what it was like to “really have deep divine love” until Robyn came into his life.

“I’m a flip-flopping fool when it comes to those ex-wives,” Kody said during a confessional, claiming, “All of us are rewriting the past. I mean, Meri’s rewriting it like crazy. I’m rewriting I’m sure because yes, I probably loved them. I had Robyn convinced I was in love with them.”

Meri Brown Says Kody Is Switching the ‘Narrative’ About Not Loving Ex-Wives

Kody added that he must have “sold” Robyn on the idea that his family was “something special” because once it fell apart it’s been “messing with her.”

When he later told Robyn that he needs her to “let that go” and “not hold it against” him that he was no longer in love with his exes. He alleged that he “agreed” with Christine, Janelle and Meri that their respective relationships had run their course.

“I’m not trying to be cruel to Robyn. And yet, it’s just heartbreaking to her when the reality finally hits right in front of her,” Kody concluded.

Sister Wives airs on TLC Sundays at 10 p.m. ET.

Ricki Lake Details 40-Lb Weight Loss Without Ozempic: Her Diet, Workouts

4 January 2025 at 04:30
Ricki Lake Details 40 Lb Weight Loss Without Ozempic Inside Her Strict Diet Rigorous Workout Plan

Ricki Lake says she’s “living [her] best life” after losing 40 pounds without any help from Ozempic or other weight-loss drugs.

“I started October 26, 2023, and went on this journey,” Lake, 56, exclusively reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly while promoting her collaboration with Stone Road Farms for her Ricki Lake & Bake cannabis line.

The Hairspray actress explains that she began by “following a very strict keto diet” that included intermittent fasting and hiking outside “every single day” with a weighted vest.

Since October 2023, Lake has also done Pilates “four days a week,” which contributed to her losing 40 pounds and keeping it off.

Ricki Lake Launches Her Own Cannabis Product Called ‘Ricki Lake & Bake’

“I did not go on any drug because I wasn’t prediabetic,” she says, noting, “There’s nothing wrong with those drugs. They’re actually game changers for so many people. But for me, I did not want to be reliant on a drug if I could help it.”

Instead of using Ozempic or similar GLP-1 medications, Lake shares that she did her “own thing” that was “very specific.”

“I wore a glucose monitor. I wore my Oura ring [which tracks health data]. I prioritized sleep and overall, a low-stress lifestyle. And it worked,” she reveals. “It continues to work.”

Before speaking with Us, Lake says she did a two-mile hike and took a Pilates class, which is her norm.

Inside Ricki Lake's Weight Loss Journey Through the Years

“I took what was once a chore, you know, every day having to work out and get on the elliptical and hate every minute of it,” the former Ricki Lake talk show host continues. “Now it’s a privilege and a joy to be able to move my body, to not be in pain, to see the results [and] to fit in my size 4 jeans.”

Lake rose to fame for playing Tracy Turnblad in 1988’s Hairspray, who she once proclaimed was “pleasantly plump.” Since then, she’s had many ups and downs with her weight.

In 2007, she was Us Weekly’s cover star after losing more than 100 pounds — even giving Us an Instagram shoutout on February 26, 2024, in the same Norma Kamali red bathing suit she modeled for the photo shoot 17 years prior.

“I literally put the bathing suit on for me,” she tells Us. “I was like, ‘I wonder if I could still pull this off?’ Because I’ve kept it [off] all these years. I’ve loved that bathing suit! And I was like, ‘Oh, my God, I look good!’ In some ways I think I look even better than I did then.”

Lake reveals, “For 17 years I’ve kept all the clothes from way back then. And I was like, ‘Why am I doing this to myself? I’m in my 50s, I’m never going to get in great shape like that again.’ And sure enough, they all fit me. In fact, some of them I had to take in and have made smaller.”

“It’s thrilling. I’m not going to lie. It’s the best feeling in the world to have put in this hard work and to be able to feel good in my skin,” she continues. “And to be able to share with the world that I did this. I set my mind to this and look what I’ve done. And then on top of that, I’m just so healthy. I’m so strong. And I just want to keep feeling this way.”

Three years after Lake covered Us Weekly in her bathing suit, she revealed her 130-pound weight loss on Good Morning America. She confessed during the December 2010 appearance: “Being fat worked, and I think that was what was confusing for me for a long time in my career. Through my adolescence and, you know, later teenage years, I got bigger and bigger and bigger. I had the worst, the worst eating habits.”

Kyle! Dolores! Gina! Every Real Housewife Who Addressed Ozempic Speculation

Then when the mother-of-two joined Dancing With the Stars for season 13 in 2011, Lake lost even more weight. At the time, she exclusively told Us that DWTS didn’t “feel like working out,” but she was “covered in sweat” after every rehearsal.

More than a decade later, Lake tells Us she continues to make her health a “priority” and gives herself all the tools to succeed. “I don’t go out late at night like my friends. I have DJ friends, they’re going out at midnight, and I’m like, ‘I’m so sorry. I cannot get there,’” she says with a laugh. “I am way asleep by, like, 8 p.m.”

The former talk show host shares that she goes to bed early and wakes up to workout before the sun rises. “I hike every single day, weather allowed. But even in the rain, I’m just out there [at the] crack of dawn with my dog and usually my husband,” she adds.

Lake notes that over the past year it’s been a “mind flip” where working out is no longer a “chore” but rather something “I love doing.”

She gushes: “I love slowing down and looking at nature and moving my body, getting my heart rate up, getting a sweat on.”

The actress — who teased to Us that she’s working on a lifestyle cookbook that documents her health journey — has also leaned into cannabis to unwind and avoids added sugars.

Last month, Lake announced her collaboration with Stone Road Farms in California for her Ricki Lake & Bake products, which are available in stores in the area.

“I obviously believe in this medicine, and in Stone Road’s brand and what they’ve built,” Lake said in a press release in December 2024. “It is so aligned with where I am in my life, and I’m so happy to be bringing this out.”

Outside of growing her own weed, Lake tells Us she drinks cannabis at night with her husband, Ross Burningham, before going to bed.

“It’s low in calories. Wine has sugar in it and calories,” she explains. “I’ve recently lost a bunch of weight, and I really prioritize just keeping everything in check. I’d rather have my cannabis drink, which is, like, 40 calories. And still get that nice buzz.”

Jennifer Sheffield celebrated the positives about her and Brandon Sheffield’s divorce in an ominous TikTok post weeks before they were both found dead in what authorities are alleging is an apparent murder-suicide.

“So, I’m about to be a newly single mom. I am in the middle of divorce,” Jennifer said in a video shared via TikTok on December 10, 2024. “My husband is being incredible, though, really and truly … we’re working together. Everything’s great.”

The 30-year-old TikTok personality appeared upbeat and happy as she recorded the video while driving around Mississippi.

“We’re splitting everything down the middle. Everything is good,” she said of her relationship with her estranged husband, Brandon, 40, at the time. “It is a very civil divorce with our daughter in mind.”

'Mama & Tata' Creator Allegedly in $33.6 Million Debt Since Husband's Death

Jennifer confessed that since she was going to be a mom with a “single income,” she was reaching out to her network for tips on keeping costs down.

She noted that Brandon would be “helping” with the fees associated with their daughter once the divorce was finalized. “He will be supporting her, so essentially, like, I’m really thankful for that and that I will not have to worry so much about supporting her,” Jennifer continued.

However, she pointed out that she will be on a “very limited income with buying a new house,” and expressed concerns over branching out from Brandon, saying, “I’ve never done this before. I’ve never been on my own before.”

Jennifer concluded, “If you have any tips I would really appreciate it because I’m a little scared right now.”

General Hospital’s John Capodice Dead at 83

The positive message about her relationship with Brandon amid their divorce was shared 18 days before Jennifer and Brandon were found dead on December 28, 2024, in Brandon, Mississippi, around 7:19 a.m. local time. Brandon Police Department chief Joseph French confirmed their deaths to Dark Horse Press Now that same day.

Authorities arrived on scene after receiving a welfare check call from Jennifer’s family, who reported signs of foul play.

The police chief reportedly told the outlet that it “appears that Brandon Sheffield shot Jennifer Sheffield and then shot himself,” before adding that the authorities were working with the theory that their deaths were the result of an apparent murder-suicide.

“This is an ongoing investigation,” French told ABC affiliate WJTV in a statement on December 28. “I would like to thank the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation for their assistance with the Crime Scene Unit to assist with processing the scene.”

Prior to her death, Jennifer documented her life as a mom in Mississippi, who was focused on getting into medical school. She had more than 6,500 followers and over 100,000 likes on her more recent videos.

George Lopez and More Celebs Who Can’t Stop Watching ‘Love Is Blind’

3 January 2025 at 16:51

Kim Kardashian and Katie Thurston are among the celebrities who can’t stop watching Love Is Blind.

The Kardashians star revealed in March 2020 that her sister Kendall Jenner and pal La La Anthony were responsible for her tuning in for season 1. “Alright @KendallJenner and @lala got me to watch Love Is Blind and I’m obsessed!!!!!!!!!” she shared via social media at the time.

Love Is Blind debuted in February 2020 on Netflix and followed a group of singles as they tried to make a connection — and get engaged — without seeing one another.

With six seasons of drama as of 2024, the series has continued to draw in viewers and celebrity fans, like Bachelorette alum Thurston.

“I just finished episode 6 of #loveisblind2 and all I’m gonna say is I’m #teamnatalie and just want her to be happy,” Thurston shared via social media in February 2022.

I’ve seen every single moment. I’ve seen all of it.” Stewart noted that she likes watching the couples that get engaged quickly “because you’re like, ‘Thank you, Jesus, you just liked each other.’” She added, “I like the boring ones, the other ones are, like, scary.”

"I really love to sleep and lie around. I love on a Sunday to not do anything, watch rubbish TV and not make dinner and order in food. I really need one slovenly day," she told London's The Sunday Times in March 2024. “Oh my God! [I watch] Love Is Blind, which is like so f--king terrible and I can’t stop watching it. There are these dating shows on Netflix, like, Love on the Spectrum. That’s another thing Covid did. I had never seen a reality TV show until Covid. I had just never done it. Now it’s a slippery slope.”

The Harry Potter star confessed during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show in March 2022 that he is a passionate reality TV fan. "I don't really believe in guilty pleasures," Radcliffe said.

The actor specifically cited Love is Blind as one of his favorites, joking that it has "been taking up a lot [of his] time."

Candice King, Sabrina Carpenter and More Celebrity Snow Bunnies

3 January 2025 at 16:16

Year after year, celebrities get into the winter spirit by heading to the mountains and channeling their inner snow bunny.

Whether they are getting in on the snow-filled fun alone or bringing their families, stars are all in on cold weather getaways. Ashlee Simpson and husband Evan Ross, for example, took their kids to Aspen, Colorado, for the holidays in December 2019, and met up with Ross’ extended family, including his sister Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross. They even coordinated their pajamas in between snow activities.

Comedian Chelsea Handler got in some serious aunt time with all of her nieces and nephews, as well as her siblings, during the 2019 holiday season in Whistler, Canada. “Having the time of my life on this mountain, thanks to the sage guidance of my two ski guides,” Handler captioned a series of photos while skiing at the time.

Scroll down to see which stars are taking advantage of the snowy weather — and which celebs are full-on ski bunnies:

'When Calls the Heart' Season 12 Is Almost Here: Who's the Cast Dating IRL?

3 January 2025 at 14:50

Hope Valley is full of love triangles and complex love stories, but the cast of When Calls the Heart’s real-life romances aren’t quite as hard to keep track of.

Erin Krakow, Chris McNally and Kevin McGarry are just some of the Hallmark Channel stars who have become family throughout the show’s run, which began in 2014.

During that time, the protagonist Elizabeth Thatcher (Krakow) has found love more than once. Off screen, Krakow has been much quieter about her love life. The actress, however, did confirm her romance with WCTH costar Ben Rosenbaum in February 2024.

McNally has been equally as hush-hush about his relationship with fellow Hallmark star Julie Gonzalo, with whom he shares one child.

McGarry, meanwhile, met his now-wife Kayla Wallace on WCTH. The couple went public in fall 2020 before getting engaged in December 2022.

Scroll down to see which When Calls the Heart stars are off the market — and who’s still single:

Krakow was shipped with costar Rosenbaum by fans for years before revealing in February 2024 that they are an item. Krakow shared a kissing photo with her boyfriend via social media on Valentine’s Day with a heart emoji.

Gonzalo confirmed her romance with McNally in June 2022 when she announced that the couple had welcomed their first child. McNally has been playing Lucas Bouchard on the Hallmark show since 2019.

McGarry, Mountie Nathan Grant on the series, has been dating When Calls the Heart costar Wallace — who played Fiona Miller on seasons 6 through 10 before making a cameo on season 11 in 2024 — since late 2020. He seemingly confirmed the romance in November of that year by sharing a series of Polaroids of the duo hanging out. McGarry proposed to Wallace in December 2022 and confirmed in September 2024 that they had quietly tied the knot.

The Canadian star, who plays Henry Gowen, was married to Brandy Ledford from 1998 to 2004. He tied the knot for a second time in 2013, marrying Christine Wallace. Cummins is the father of four children, two sons and two daughters.

Brooks, who portrays Faith Carter, has primarily kept her relationship with Riley Graydon out of the public eye since tying the knot in summer 2018. The actress, however, announced in November 2019 that they’d welcomed their first child, daughter Viola. They welcomed sons Levon and Angus in December 2022 and November 2024, respectively.

The Full House alum — who was previously married to Michael R. Burns from 1989 to 1996 — eloped with husband Mossimo Giannulli in November 1997, just two days before Thanksgiving. The couple have since welcomed daughters Bella and Olivia Jade. Loughlin played Abigail Stanton on the Hallmark series from 2014 to 2019, before stepping back from the show amid the college admissions scandal.
After serving two months in prison in late 2020 for her part in the scandal she reprised the role for GAC Family’s When Hope Calls Christmas special in December 2021. Giannulli, for his part, spent five months in prison for conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud before being released in April 2021.

Best Golden Globes Selfies Throughout the Show’s History: Photos

3 January 2025 at 14:39

A picture is worth a thousand words! The Golden Globes is known as Hollywood’s Party of the Year, and celebrities have the photos to prove it.

As fans settle in front of their TV screens to see if their favorite stars will win the most coveted trophies for both film and television each year, Hollywood’s biggest names are getting pampered and documenting their road to the Golden Globes via social media.

Some stars including Alex Borstein and Emma Roberts give their followers an inside look at their pre-show rituals. Roberts, for example, is a fan of grabbing a burger while in full makeup.

Other celebrities share selfies with their significant others before walking the carpet, like Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel. “I give my ride to the #goldenglobes after party a very enthusiastic 5 ⭐ rating,” the Sinner alum captioned an Instagram photo following the 2018 show.

Best friends Busy Philipps and Michelle Williams always post photos from their awards show outings, including snaps from their afterparty activities.

“Post any awards show, we always end up back at her hotel room, you know, because she doesn’t live in Los Angeles, and we just get undone together,” Philipps exclusively told Us Weekly in January 2021 about her friendship ritual. “We’re just, like, taking out extensions, taking off eyelashes, washing our faces, putting on sweats, putting on cozy outfits. And then we go eat at Jon & Vinny’s or go get food.”

Many stars use the Golden Globes as an excuse to reunite with their costars past and present. Big Little LiesReese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman teased their show in 2017 while Pirates of the Caribbean’s Orlando Bloom and Zoe Saldana hung out at the 2014 event.

Veep’s cast is known for sharing group shots, whether they win or lose each year. The 12 Years a Slave team, on the other hand, showed how excited they were for their 2014 win with a backstage selfie worthy of being framed.

Inside Craig Conover's State of Mind After Paige DeSorbo Split

3 January 2025 at 14:30
Inside 'Southern Charm' Star Craig Conover's State of Mind After Paige DeSorbo Split

Craig Conover is trying to live in the now after his split from Paige DeSorbo, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.

“Craig has been in good spirits since his split from Paige was announced,” the insider says, noting that the Southern Charm star “has a lot of friends rallying around him.”

While Conover, 35, is “internally upset” over the breakup, he “put on a brave face” during his New Year’s Eve festivities and “had a lot of fun,” per the source.

“He spent the last few days in Aspen, [Colorado], trying to get his mind off of things,” the insider adds, sharing that for now, Conover is “trying to be around positive and fun people.”

Craig Conover Hinted at Marrying Paige DeSorbo 2 Months Before Breakup

Outside of spending time with his inner circle, the Sewing Down South founder is “really focused on his businesses and that is keeping him busy,” the source explains.

Conover currently runs two Sewing Down South locations — one in Charleston and one in Nashville — in addition to working on Southern Charm, cohosting the “Pillows & Beer” podcast and opening By The Way restaurant with pal Austen Kroll in late 2024.

The past few weeks have been a rollercoaster for Conover, who recently shut down speculation that he and DeSorbo had split. “I don’t know where that came from, because we’re together, like, every week,” Conover told E! News at the time, confirming that he and the Summer House star, 32, were “not broken up.”

Paige DeSorbo Denies Bravo Told Her When to Announce Craig Conover Split

Shortly after celebrating Christmas with their respective families, DeSorbo announced on Monday, December 30, that she and Conover had parted ways after three years of dating.

“Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” DeSorbo explained during her and Hannah Berner’s “Giggly Squad” podcast. “I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends.”

She insisted, “No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing. I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want, and I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real time and what you want for your future.”

Us confirmed at the time that Conover and DeSorbo’s different views on their future — Conover has voiced in the past that he wants kids and to get married, while DeSorbo said she wasn’t in any rush to do either — was part of what led them to separate.

“Craig was ready for the next steps and had plans to propose to Paige. He was really pushing for the next steps and wanted to settle down with her,” an separate insider exclusively told Us on Tuesday, December 31, explaining that the pair’s physical distance was making that next step even harder to make happen.

DeSorbo, who resides in New York City, didn’t want to move to Charleston, where Conover lives, according to the source. “Logistically it was never going to work out long term,” the insider explained.

Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover Had Our Vote for Best Bravo Couple of 2024

While the source noted that “many of their friends are not shocked” by the breakup, “Everyone is sad for them.”

The split is still fresh for the Bravo personalities who got close after filming season 1 of Winter House in early 2021. They began dating that summer and fans got glimpses at their romance on both Southern Charm and Summer House over the past three years.

When it comes to next steps for Conover, the first insider tells Us that he and DeSorbo “haven’t cut all communication off yet.”

The former couple are handling the split “maturely,” the source says, noting that Conover “has said he definitely misses her” and it’s been “a hard transition emotionally so far.”

‘The Rookie’ Boss Teases Chenford's 'Next Chapter,' Nolan and Bailey Drama

3 January 2025 at 13:03
The Rookie Boss Teases Chenfords Next Chapter Talks Nolan and Baileys Biggest Threat
Disney/Mike Taing

The Rookie boss warned fans that season 7 will put two couples to the test — Chenford a.k.a. Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen, and John Nolan and his wife, Bailey Nune. In other words, we were warned.

During season 6, Tim (Eric Winter) broke up with Lucy (Melissa O’Neill) as a form of self-punishment for crossing the line during an op and putting Lucy’s career in jeopardy.

According to the season 7 trailer, which Us Weekly exclusively released on Thursday, January 2, the connection between the pair is not gone. But while they share a steamy moment together — a shirtless Tim is involved — the showrunner told TVLine in an interview published on Thursday that Tim isn’t done working through his internal demons.

“At some point we have a scene where he’s at a veterans support group, so he’s still trying to do the work on himself,” Alexi Hawley said of Tim while speaking to the outlet.

‘The Rookie’ Season 7 Trailer: Nolan Hunts Bailey’s Ex, Tim and Lucy Heat Up

Hawley noted that the “good news” is that Tim “understands what he did wrong,” he is just “trying to figure out” the “why.”

“The worst thing he could possibly think to do to himself was to break up with Lucy, and he’s going to figure that fully out, and then also deal with the repercussions of that,” the showrunner explained.

Fans previously got a glimpse at Tim and Lucy’s undeniable love for each other when she saved his life during the season 6 finale. That bond will continue to grow, according to Hawley.

“We really wanted to come into this season with positivity about Tim and Lucy. Obviously, they did do a lot of work, Tim especially, at the end of last season,” he said. “It did feel like they were coming back together in a way that was at least positive.”

Looking forward, Hawley says Chenford will have to ask themselves, “OK, we’re onto the next chapter — what does that look like?”

Nathan Fillion’s ‘The Rookie’ Bloopers Are Too Funny: His Best Outtakes

The TV writer added that their new normal will involve a bet over training the LAPD’s new rookies.

That wager allows The Rookie team to “play [up] the banter” and “the chemistry,” Hawley explained, adding that “it allows us to lean into the competition between them that has been baked into them since the beginning, even when he was her boss, basically.”

Tim hopefully winning Lucy back is just one major romance to keep an eye on in the new season. Nolan (Nathan Fillion) and wife Bailey (Jenna Dewan) received shocking news at the end of season 6: Bailey’s ex-husband, Jason Wyler (Steve Kazee), broke out of prison alongside Oscar Hutchinson (Matthew Glave).

“Jason will ultimately pose the biggest threat in the first half of the season,” Hawley told the outlet. “He is sort of the existential threat because he is a threat to the family, Bailey especially.”

As the first part of the season unfolds, viewers will learn more about “the trauma of Bailey’s relationship with Jason that maybe she hasn’t processed yet, the abusive relationship she was in with this guy,” he continued.

Hawley added: “That percolates up in the fear of the reunion, because part of the drama of the first half of the season is, ‘When is he going to show up?’ And that sense of always being afraid is not healthy, obviously.”

Nolan and Bailey’s past talks about possibly expanding their family through adoption will also “come back” up, per the showrunner. “Without spoiling anything, I don’t know what else to say,” Hawley concluded.

Season 7 of The Rookie premieres on ABC Tuesday, January 7, at 10 p.m. ET.

‘Sister Wives’ Preview: Kody Asks Robyn to ‘Accept’ Him as a Monogamist

3 January 2025 at 10:28

In a Sister Wives sneak peek, Kody Brown reveals that after three failed marriages he only has eyes for his remaining wife Robyn Brown — but is she OK leaving polygamy behind?

“Will you accept me as a monogamist?” Kody, 55, asks Robyn, 46, in Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek at the Sunday, January 5, episode of the TLC series. “Is there a problem with that?”

A tearful Robyn takes a beat before answering her husband, promising, “I’m always going to stick with you.”

“I’m just having an identity crisis,” she adds.

Robyn became Kody’s fourth wife in 2014 when they legally wed. At the time, Kody and his first wife, Meri Brown, legally divorced so he could adopt Robyn’s three children from a previous marriage. Kody then entered a spiritual union with Meri, 53, which was similar to that of the bond he shared with second and third wives, Janelle and Christine Brown.

The Brown family started to shatter in November 2021, when Christine, 52, left Kody after more than 25 years together. Janelle, 55, followed suit, announcing her separation from Kody in December 2022.

Kody Brown Wonders If He Can 'Adjust' to Monogamy With Final Wife Robyn

Meri confirmed in January 2023 that she and Kody had parted ways after navigating several rocky years. She swiftly asked their church to “terminate” the marriage, which played out on camera during season 19 of Sister Wives.

Robyn, for her part, has been vocal about the heartbreak she says she has endured as a result of her fellow sister wives leaving their family. She previously said she envisioned growing old with all three women and their respective kids — a future that is no longer an option.

Sister Wives’ Janelle Brown Bets $1,000 Kody Won't Take Another Sister Wife

“Yes, I’ll always stick with him, and I love him,” Robyn says of her husband in the preview for Sunday’s episode, admitting, “This is not what I wanted for my life.”

Robyn, who shares two children with Kody, proceeds to tell him in the video that she is “just sort of stuck” after all the upheaval in their family.

Kody, meanwhile, tells his spouse that he is ready for closure. “Whatever I’ve done in these marriages, they’re done,” he says. “Whatever happened between me and them, I’m done.”

The patriarch explains, “I’m not going to fix it with Meri,” adding, “I’m not going to try and fix it with Janelle anymore. She’s done with me.”

Kody Brown Claims He's 'Never Been Allowed' to 'Be in Love' With Robyn

Robyn seems surprised by Kody’s comments regarding Janelle, who at the time of filming was the only one of his exes that still lived close by in Arizona. (Christine moved to Utah and married David Woolley in October 2023. Meri, for her part, had Kody help her relocate to her bed and breakfast in Utah at the beginning of this season.)

“She told you she’s done?” Robyn asks about Janelle. “Yes,” Kody replies. “Like [using] those words?” Robyn questions, to which Kody once again says, “Yes.”

Jack Nicholson's Family Guide: Meet the Actor's Ex-Wife and 6 Kids

3 January 2025 at 05:50

Jack Nicholson has welcomed six children with five women over the years — but he has only publicly commented on four of them.

Throughout his time in the spotlight, Jack has only married once. He and Sandra Knight tied the knot in 1962 and welcomed daughter Jennifer Nicholson the following year. Once their divorce was finalized in 1968, The Departed actor allegedly had a fling with his Five Easy Pieces costar Susan Anspach that resulted in the birth of his second child, Caleb Goddard. Jack, however, has not publicly acknowledged his paternity.

The Something’s Gotta Give star moved on with Danish supermodel and actress Winnie Hollman, whom he dated for five years. The pair welcomed daughter Honey Hollman in 1982.

Jack’s relationship with American actress Rebecca Broussard is one of his more public romances. The twosome had an affair during his 17-year relationship with Anjelica Huston, which led to the arrival of their first child together, daughter Lorraine Nicholson, in 1990. Two years later, Jack welcomed son Ray Nicholson with Broussard. The duo called it quits in 1993.

Tessa Gourin — who was born to waitress Jennine Gourin in 1994 — has claimed that Jack is her biological father, sharing in a 2023 interview that she never knew her dad growing up. The actor has not confirmed his paternity.

Jennifer is the only child of Jack and his ex-wife, Knight. She was born in September 1963. Jennifer appeared in several movies in the ‘90s, with her most recent film being 2017’s Johnny Christ. In addition to acting, Jack’s eldest child has worked as a movie set designer, interior designer and in 2003 she debuted her first fashion line during New York’s Fashion Week.
The designer was married to Mark Norfleet from 1997 to 2003. The exes share two sons: Sean and Duke, born in 1996 and 1999, respectively.
"I like being Jack Nicholson's daughter and I'm proud of him, but people don't understand the pressures that come along with that," Jennifer told the Los Angeles Times in 2003.

Model Winnie welcomed her and Jack’s daughter in January 1982. Honey was raised by her mother in Denmark and appeared in one money, 2010’s Empire North. She is married to Peter Duffy and the couple share three children: Walter, Daisy and Hank, born in 2011, 2012 and 2017, respectively. Honey own a pub called The High Horse before opening the grocery store CULT:ZERO in 2019, which is located in Trim, Ireland.

Lorraine was born in April 1990 to the Oscar winner and Broussard. In 1997, the Los Angeles native made her acting debut voicing a character in Father of the Bird. Lorraine’s second gig was a small part in her dad’s 2003 hit Something’s Gotta Give. More than a decade later, Lorraine started working behind the camera producing and directing her first music video, “Hana: Clay,” in 2016. She directed and produced her first short film, Life Boat, the following year.
“Lorraine is one of the great people, a totally unique human being,” Jack told Vanity Fair in April 1994. “She’s already got her own theories, her own philosophies.”
Lorraine shared a rare photo with Jack in a December 2024 Instagram post when looking back at the holiday season.

Ray is the second child of Broussard and Jack. He was born in February 2022 and has followed in his dad’s footsteps, breaking into acting in 2006 with a minor role in The Benchwarmers. He has since starred in hits such as 2020’s Promising Young Woman, 2021’s Licorice Pizza and 2022’s Something From Tiffany’s.
"Ray may have a problem with being a little too good-looking. [He] looks exactly like Rebecca. When he was born, he looked like one of the farmers in The Magnificent Seven,” the I’m Still Here actor told Vanity Fair in April 1994 of his son. “He does move like me. There's a lot of body language on him. You don't miss them Nicholson legs. Somebody's got to get them, poor thing. They're useful but short. Most infants pretty much don't have chins. But Ray always had a jaw. You can't wait to get him into a collar or a shaving commercial."

Tessa was born in August 1994 in New York City to Jennine. The waitress alleged that the Chinatown actor is the father of her daughter, but Jack has never publicly acknowledged the paternity. Tessa made her acting debut in 2018 with Stranger’s Arms. She then appeared in 2022’s The Crusaders. Tessa is also a model, who spoke out about her alleged estranged father in February 2023.
"I was afraid people would think I was tacky or that I was riding off his coattails. But this person doesn't want me in his life, so how would you use that to your benefit?" she told the Daily Beast, noting she had no issue with Jack’s body of work. "I really want this to come across: If I were to discredit anything about his acting, then that wouldn't make me an artist, because making art and being the world's greatest dad are not the same thing.”

Duke, who goes by his mother’s maiden name, is Jack’s second oldest grandson. He is the youngest child of the actor’s daughter Jennifer and her ex-husband. Duke made his acting debut in 2016’s The Dandy Warhold: Catcher in the Rye video. His stardom shot up in 2019 when he played Danny/Tony in Us.

Why Southern Hospitality's Joe Bradley Now Admits to Luann de Lesseps Kiss

2 January 2025 at 19:02

Joe Bradley is done keeping secrets, especially when it comes to his rumored hookup with Luann de Lesseps.

“I think that enough time has passed and I’m sick of the rumors and the lies,” Joe exclusively told Us Weekly when asked why he finally confessed to kissing Luann, 59, last year.

The Southern Hospitality star claimed he was “never self-conscious or trying to hide the fact that I kissed her, because Luann’s iconic.”

Joe alleged that the reason he kept quiet for so long was because he “didn’t want to hurt Danielle [Olivera]’s feelings” since they were hanging out at the time.

“We were not technically boyfriend and girlfriend during that time, but I knew how it looked, and I don’t like when people’s feelings get hurt because of my actions,” Joe explained. “And that’s kind of why I was trying to hide everything.”

Us broke the news in January 2024 that Joe and Luann were “all over each other” at a New York City bar after meeting during an episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

When Joe was spotted with Luann he was in a relationship with Danielle, 36, whom he got close with during BravoCon in November 2023.

Southern Hospitality's Joe Bradley Denies Luann de Lesseps Hookup at Reunion

The following month, TJ Dinch accused Joe of hooking up and sleeping with Luann during the NYC outing, which he adamantly denied.

“This is the truth, me and Luann, we got a drink and hit it off,” Joe said during the season 2 Southern Hospitality reunion, which aired in February 2024. “I did cross a line at the hotel, but I did not kiss her.”

TJ claimed during the reunion that he was “99 percent” sure that Joe “hooked up” with the Real Housewives of New York City alum. Joe told TJ to “f— off” and stuck to his story.

Summer House's Danielle Olivera Thinks Ex Joe Bradley Hooked Up With Luann

After Danielle and Joe called it quits in February 2024, she said she was “also 99 percent sure” that Joe and Luann got together.

During the season 3 Southern Hospitality premiere, which aired on Thursday, January 2, TJ doubled down on his claims that Joe was unfaithful to Danielle. TJ argued that he and Joe were not speaking because he “gave him the opportunity to tell the truth when he cheated on Danielle when he f—ed Luann.”

Joe continued to play coy about the extent of his and Luann’s fling in the premiere, but told the cameras, “So what if I did hook up with Luann?”

His now-girlfriend, Maddi Reese, however, called Joe’s hookup with Luann “iconic” during the episode, confirming that it did in fact happen.

Joe, for his part, exclusively told Us that TJ made it “way worse than it needed to be” and it was “none of his business” in the first place. He acknowledged that while he and Luann did kiss, he hasn’t spoken to her since.

“I’m just glad that that’s out there,” Joe said. “And I’m happy with her and hopefully me and Maddi can go to one of Luann’s cabaret shows. She’s the s—.”

‘Southern Hospitality’ Season 3 Trailer: Maddi and Joe Have Vegas Wedding

Maddi, who has been dating her costar since April 2024, exclusively told Us that since their season 2 reunion last year, the cast “all kind of knew” what happened between Joe and Luann.

“Maddi thinks it’s funny,” Joe explained. “We’re so happy now. … It was before we dated.”

Maddi noted that she felt like “TJ kind of took it a little too seriously” when Joe’s fling was “iconic” to her and “just funny.”

Joe admitted that at the time, he felt like his “friend” TJ was “coming after me, which hurt me.” He teased that despite their ups and downs in season 3, he and TJ are “in a better place now.”

'Southern Hospitality' Premiere: Where Do Emmy and Will, More Couples Stand?

2 January 2025 at 19:01

The Southern Hospitality cast came in hot during the season 3 premiere — and not everyone was on speaking terms.

“He’s going to f— you over!” TJ Dinch warned Emmy Sharrett during the first few minutes of the Thursday, January 2, premiere, after several of their castmates claimed that her boyfriend, Will Kulp, was unfaithful. “I bet you f—ed that bitch,” TJ yelled at Will.

While the episode did tease a lot of future drama between Emmy and Will, they were not the pairing that was feuding to start the season. In fact, the majority of the episode took place three months before TJ slammed Will over his alleged infidelity.

It was TJ and former best friend Joe Bradley that had the worst relationship during the premiere after Joe said he could no longer “trust” TJ following TJ’s claims that Joe hooked up with Luann de Lesseps while he was briefly dating Summer House’s Danielle Olivera.

“Joe hooking up with Luann is iconic,” Maddi Reese told the cameras, while Joe maintained that it doesn’t matter whether he actually had sex with the Real Housewives of New York City alum.

“Luann is such a badass. I mean who wouldn’t want to f— her?” costar Grace Lilly chimed in while Emmy teased, “Joe has a thing for MILFs. He loves them.”

While most of Joe’s castmates playfully poked fun at his rumored hookup with Luann, TJ was adamant that he “cheated” on Danielle when he hooked up with Luann in New York City. (Us Weekly broke the news in January that Luann and Joe were “all over each other” at a hotel in NYC after filming an episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.)

That rub caused Joe and TJ to have a massive falling out, which, according to the premiere, was affecting the whole group.

“Yes, I’m dating Joe Bradley,” Maddi revealed during the premiere, noting that the former friends had made things official earlier that year. “I feel like I’ve always liked Joe.”

Maddi confessed, “To make it romantic was just a huge risk. At the same time, I know that this man is in love with me.”

The last time fans saw Maddi she was breaking up with Trevor Stokes after he cheated on her during season 2 of the series. Joe, meanwhile, has always had feelings for Maddie, exclusively telling Us in December 2024 that they became official in April of that year.

“I feel safe, secure. It’s everything I need right now,” Maddi said during the Thursday episode of her relationship with Joe. Even after TJ told her that Joe allegedly “cheated” on all his past girlfriends, Maddi didn’t panic.

Joe, for his part, told the cameras, “Dreams really do come true” after “Maddi Reese finally agreed to love me back.”

Emmy Sharrett and Will Kulp

During season 2, Will denied kissing another woman and Emmy stood by his side. The pair have since had to navigate Will going to law school and living further away from Emmy, which they claimed in the premiere made them stronger.

“I am so happy to have you back,” Emmy said, teasing, “When are you going to put a baby in me and propose? I’m kidding.”

She told the cameras that after facing “doubters” the summer prior, she and Will “couldn’t be doing better.” Emmy explained that after one year of law school, she and Will were “one year closer to getting a ring” and getting married.

Southern Hospitality's Leva Insists Maddi and Joe’s Vegas Wedding Was Real

Elsewhere in the episode, some of the Southern Hospitality cast claimed that Will wasn’t being honest with Emmy about their romance. “I just feel bad for her. I know we’ve both heard Will is running around bad mouthing her behind her back,” TJ told Mia Alario, who confirmed she’d heard similar stories.

“Will was out at Republic absolutely obliterated. Talking about how much he hates Emmy and hates his relationship and she’s so annoying,” Mia told the cameras.

TJ added, “I’ve heard that he was like, ‘I just don’t think she’s my person and now that she’s sober she’s not fun anymore.’” Joe also confirmed he’d heard Will say unkind things as well.

Mia no longer works at Republic Garden & Lounge, but she is still friends with the cast. She even FaceTimed with TJ from Trinidad and Tobago (where she was training for Miss World) to give an update on her romance with Troy, whom she started seeing during season 2.

“Troy and I are so intensely in love that it’s actually disgusting,” she confessed. “Being away from him for three months has been torturous. But I definitely send a lot of pictures of my breasts. He likes that.”

TJ Dinch and Michols Pena

TJ and newbie Michols are not an item, but they did reveal they attempted to go out once before the cameras started to roll. “I got drunk one night and I kissed him,” TJ told Bradley, noting that after Michols got him a car home, he left him in the vehicle.

While TJ said he was nervous thinking about dating a 21-year-old, he continued to try and get close to Michols throughout the premiere. After TJ brought Michols coffee one day, things got even more awkward.

“I was starting to develop feelings,” Michols said, noting that “out of nowhere” TJ brought him a drink and made him feel like he was “playing games.”

The one-time besties confessed that they haven’t “spoken at all” over the past four months after TJ accused Joe of lying about his romance with Luann during their season 2 reunion, which aired in February.

“Joe definitely hooked up with Luann. He was dating Danielle when he hooked up with Luann,” TJ alleged, claiming he was “giving Joe the opportunity to tell the truth because everyone already knew.”

Joe never confirmed his hook up with Luann, instead he claimed that “TJ betrayed my trust” with his accusations and “sabotaged” his relationship with Danielle in the process. (Danielle and Joe called it quits in February after getting together in November 2023.)

Why ‘Southern Hospitality’ Can Fill the ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Void

TJ said he distanced himself from Joe after he received a bunch of mean texts from Joe in which he was called a “rat.” During the final moments of the premiere, Joe tried to talk with TJ, but he refused to engage.

“I’m just not ready [to talk],” TJ confessed. Joe began walking away, declaring, “I’m done.”

Bradley and Maddi feuded throughout season 2 after they both claimed that the other ruined one of their past relationships by spreading negative rumors. However, they appeared to bury that hatched by the time season 3 started to film.

“Me and Maddi are good. I’m not going to keep holding onto the past,” Bradley explained, and Maddi agreed. “Brad and I are cool,” she told the cameras.

Maddi and Emmy butted heads during season 2 after Emmy was promoted to assistant general manager over the DJ. Emmy was later demoted, which seemingly helped ease the tension between the women.

Emmy also revealed during the premiere that she was eight months sober, which brought her closer to Maddi, who hasn’t drank alcohol in years. “It feels really nice to be in a good place with Emmy,” Maddi shared.

Emmy added that once Maddi started dating Joe, their friendship improved. “Underneath all the bulls— me and Maddi went through last year, there was a genuine friendship there,” she said.

Maddi and Emmy’s boyfriends — who feuded last year when Joe didn’t defend Will against the cheating allegations — also rekindled their friendship prior to filming. The foursome played pickleball during Thursday’s episode and joked about how far they’ve all come.

Southern Hospitality airs on Bravo Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.

Southern Charm’s Craig Froze His Sperm While Waiting to Have Kids With Paige

2 January 2025 at 18:01

Craig Conover got real on Southern Charm about his family plans with Paige DeSorbo — and the steps he took to someday become a dad — before they called it quits.

“Me and Paige have decided to freeze my sperm,” Craig, 35, told pals Austen Kroll and Shep Rose during the Thursday, January 2, episode of the Bravo series, which filmed in summer 2024.

During the episode, Craig also told his then-girlfriend, Paige, about his choice to ensure they can have kids one day, which surprised her as well. (Paige, 32, announced her and Craig’s split days prior to this episode airing.)

“I was thinking about freezing my sperm,” Craig explained to Paige while sitting in his backyard in Charleston. “That’s like the craziest thing in the world,” a stunned Paige said in response.

Southern Charm’s Craig Conover Ponders Paige DeSorbo Split, Wants a Family

Despite the visible shock on Paige’s face, Craig moved forward with the idea and the cameras followed him to the sperm bank where he did his business.

Craig continued to outline his plan for a family with Paige while chatting with Austen, 37, and Shep, 44, during Thursday’s episode.

“I read about this person who got in a car accident … they can’t produce anymore,” Craig told his friends. “I would be remiss to not say that becoming a dad is, probably, whatever it’s called if it has to happen in my future.”

He later confirmed that becoming a parent is something he ultimately wants but noted that “now it’s probably going to be three or four years” due to Paige’s timeline.

When questioned about whose idea it was to hold off on having a family, Craig said it was Paige. He claimed that once she decided they would wait, “It made sense to me.”

However, Craig confessed that “without any influence from Paige” he would have his own timeline that was: “You date a little while then you get married, then you have kids.”

The Sewing Down South founder insisted that he and Paige, who had been dating three years when he filmed the scene, were going to get married and have kids “one day” but for now they were trying to “make as much money as possible.”

“I want kids one day. Have I ever told you that I want kids right now?” Craig told Austen, claiming, “I never said I want kids right now.”

Austen, however, told the cameras, “Ever since I’ve known Craig, he’s wanted to get married, wanted to have kids.” Austen confessed, “I’m not entirely sold that Craig wants what Paige wants.”

Summer House's Paige Calls Potential Craig Engagement ‘F—king Scary’

Craig, meanwhile, confessed that his own timeline has been altered because of his relationship with Paige. “The version of life that I saw myself living isn’t what I’m living, which is this stable home that I grew up with,” he told the cameras. “Every night at dinner, my mom and dad were there with my brother. I just loved that.”

He explained: “But I think If you find the right person and they happen to be a feisty Italian from New York things aren’t always going to go how you have them planned.”

Craig and Paige sparked a romance in summer 2021 after costarring on season 1 of Winter House. In early December 2024, Craig shut down breakup rumors but weeks later Paige confirmed that they had parted ways before the holidays.

Craig Conover Hinted at Marrying Paige DeSorbo 2 Months Before Breakup

“Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” the Summer House star said during the Monday, December 30, episode of her and Hannah Berner’s “Giggly Squad” podcast. “I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends. No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing. I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want, and I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real time and what you want for your future.”

Prior to their split, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Craig was “ready for the next steps and had plans to propose.” However, living in separate cities — Craig resides in Charleston, while Paige lives in New York City — proved too much for the couple to overcome.

“Paige does not want to move to Charleston, and logistically it was never going to work out long term,” the insider said on Tuesday, December 31. “Many of their friends are not shocked at all, but everyone is sad for them.”

Craig and Paige Didn’t Let ‘Unknown’ Future Ruin Their ‘Happiness’ Pre-Split

2 January 2025 at 15:33

Craig Conover and Paige DeSorbo were solid about their relationship and status throughout 2024, prior to calling it quits in December.

Conover, 35, and DeSorbo, 32, exclusively gushed to Us Weekly about each other several times last year before their ultimate break up. The Southern Charm star claimed in September 2024 that they had “figured out” what worked for them, teasing fans would “see us work through it on both shows.”

“It’s really just not letting the unknown of the future ruin our happiness today,” he told Us of the couple’s then-mantra. “And that was a decision that we had to make.”

Conover noted, “Some people might not be able to do that, and sometimes it does get stressful and tough and not being able to have a plan. But in reality, we don’t need to right now.”

Conover and DeSorbo began dating in summer 2021 after getting close during season 1 of Winter House, which filmed earlier that year. Conover shut down split speculation in December 2024, but weeks later, DeSorbo confirmed they separated ahead of the holidays.

While some fans weren’t surprised at the breakup — mainly because Conover lives in Charleston, South Carolina, and DeSorbo resides in New York City — their quotes to Us throughout 2024 painted a happy picture.

Scroll down for more exclusive quotes Conover and DeSorbo said in 2024 about their romance pre-split:

Craig Conover 'Had Plans to Propose' Before Paige DeSorbo Breakup

‘Best Place We’ve Ever Been’

Conover exclusively told Us in June 2024 that he and DeSorbo did “attract negativity” at times for choosing to live apart after three years of dating, but that didn’t deter their romance.

“You really just try to quiet the outside noise with each other,” he explained. “We are in the best place we’ve ever been, which is the goal, right? You want to be stronger today than you were yesterday, and it just works for us.”

Conover noted that after he opened his second Sewing Down South store, this time in Nashville, some people questioned how the couple could juggle another residence.

“We’re just going to break up and meet new people? No,” he said of his plan at the time. “With FaceTime and with effort and the ease of our travel, we’re fortunate that we can fly when we want, and we make it work. And we’re both happier in this relationship than we ever have been in the past.”

Conover detailed his and DeSorbo’s “rhythm” during an exclusive interview in June 2024, noting that many people are surprised that they were just nearing the three-year mark.

“We’ve just really hit a great spot. I mean everyone has different stages. You have your year of partying and everything [time frame], having fun, but then you’re like, ‘Well wait, is this our life forever?’” he recalled. “And then there was definitely a come-to-Jesus moment, but I was just like, ‘Well, yeah, I want to be a dad one day.’ I guess I had some growing up to do.”

The entrepreneur explained that DeSorbo was “really supportive” and “patient” as he navigated those growing pains. “I finally started to walk the walk instead of just talk the talk,” he shared, adding that he couldn’t wait to “see everything that she accomplishes.”

Despite their busy schedules — DeSorbo toured with Hannah Berner for their “Giggly Squad” podcast most of the year — Conover said they always found time to unwind together.

“She gets to come down here and just float in the pool and just relax. We’ve got our bees — she was down yesterday, and we got our new bees and we’re hanging out with them,” he gushed. “And then we get to go up to the city and live the New York City lifestyle. And for us it works.”

No Pressure Here

DeSorbo exclusively told Us in August 2024 that neither her nor Conover’s parents ever questioned their timeline. “I think our families are the only people that have never, like, pressured us or even asked really,” she explained. “My parents have not asked, like, ‘Oh, when are you getting engaged?’ His parents haven’t either. So as long as they’re not pressuring us, I don’t feel pressured.”

The Summer House star added that while her fans did ask about their future often it didn’t bug her “at all.” She said, “It is a normal natural question to just be like, ‘Oh, when are you getting engaged?’ So no, I would never take offense to it.”

DeSorbo revealed to Us in August 2024 that when she was younger, she was “obsessed” with The Kardashians. She confessed that when Kim Kardashian didn’t televise her wedding to Kanye West she was “so mad,” which is why she has been so open about her relationship with Conover since they went public.

Because of her own strong feelings about Kardashian’s unaired wedding, she told Us she would feel like she was a “hypocrite” if she didn’t televise her and Conover’s eventual nuptials. “Because I was so mad at Kim that day,” she teased.

Conover didn’t worry about the physical distance between him and DeSorbo toward the end of their romance. “With our ability to travel and technology, we’re very fortunate to be able to spend, you know, half our time in New York and the other half in Charleston,” he told Us in September 2024. “They’re two great places to live.”

He revealed that “until we have kids and they have to go to school” the then-couple didn’t “have to pick a place” to live.

Conover admitted, “I could go date someone that lived in Charleston and have that structure, but it wouldn’t be the right person.” He pointed to DeSorbo as his ideal match. “I think finding the right person is the hard part, and then figuring out the rest will just come in time,” he concluded.

Josh Hall Tells Christina to Remember Her Last Name in Tense 'Flip Off' Clip

2 January 2025 at 12:11

The Flip Off is about home makeovers, but star Christina Hall’s divorce drama with her estranged husband, Josh Hall, is already stealing the show.

In an all-new sneak peek from the upcoming HGTV show, Josh, 44, and Christina, 41, have a tense moment while driving to a project ahead of their split.

“This is a competition, you gotta pull out all stops. Whatever it takes to win, I’ll do it,” Josh tells Christina in the clip.

To pump up his then-spouse, Josh yells, “Halls rule!” but Christina gives him the silent treatment from the passenger seat.

“You’re supposed to say it with me or repeat it or something to show that you’re with me. Remember, you’re a Hall now,” Josh says, which results in Christina letting out a big sigh.

Josh then looks over at her and reminds her that they are supposed to be a team. “Don’t get confused in this competition about what your last name is,” he says in a negative tone, before calling the Christina on the Coast star “rude.”

Christina claims she just doesn’t “over talk,” which fires Josh up even more. “You know how much s— you say and I’m just like, ‘I wish you’d shut up already?’” he asks.

Christina Hall Says Working With Husband Joshua on HGTV Is 'Challenging'

Christina lets out an audible “uhhh” sound as they continue on their route. “My wife’s pissing me off already,” Josh says to which Christina asks, “Are we there yet?”

At the end of the clip, Christina meets up with her ex-husband and The Flip Off competitor Tarek El Moussa and he instantly knows something is wrong.

“I know that look. What’s going on? You good?” El Moussa, 43, asks. Christina takes a beat and then tells him, “No,” revealing, “Josh and I officially split up.”

Christina and Josh tied the knot in April 2022. During their marriage they worked together on Christina in the Country, which followed Christina’s renovation efforts in Tennessee. He also appeared on Christina on the Coast, which focuses on Christina’s projects in California.

Christina Hall 'Communicating Better' With Exes Ant and Tarek Amid Divorce

In May 2024, the pair revealed they would be competing against Christina’s ex Tarek and his wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, on The Flip Off, which premieres Wednesday, January 28. (Christina and Tarek previously worked together for 10 years on HGTV’s Flip or Flop, which filmed before, during and after their divorce, which was finalized in 2018. The exes share two children: Taylor, 13, and Brayden, 10.)

While Josh was intended to have a bigger role in The Flip Off than his past collaborations with Christina, that changed when they both filed for divorce in July 2024. (Their legal proceedings are still ongoing with Christina hiring powerhouse attorney Laura Wasser in November 2024 to expedite the process.)

Us Weekly exclusively confirmed at the time that since The Flip Off was “in production” already, Christina, Tarek and Heather, 37, were “moving forward with the show without” Josh.

Christina Hall Submits New Docs Responding to Joshua Hall's Divorce Filing

In November 2024, Us confirmed that Christina’s other ex-husband Ant Anstead would partner with her for a “portion of the show.” Christina and Anstead, 45, were married from 2018 to 2020 and share 4-year-old son Hudson.

Later that month, Christina opened up about her past relationship with Josh and their working dynamic, which she claimed was not positive.

“When someone [feels] insecure by you and doesn’t like to see you win, that really puts a damper on everything,” she alleged in an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I feel, like, I was not shining as bright to try and not make him feel emasculated, but who wants to live like that?”

Christina said it was “not fun” and she “did not enjoy filming with him,” so their breakup made it “much easier” work wise.

She then claimed that Josh didn’t like her “dynamic” with ex Tarek. “Some would call it ‘flirty.’ It’s more, like, a sibling-type thing,’” she added.

Tarek, for his part, exclusively told Us in October 2024 that he “never, ever in my life thought this show would happen” with his wife — with whom he shares son Tristan, 23 months — on one side and ex-wife on the other.

The Flip Off promises to be “a throwdown competition” between Christina and Tarek (with the help of Heather) to see which ex can “find, renovate and flip a house of the biggest financial gain,” according to the official press release. The winner will get “bragging rights and a first-class vacation paid for by the loser.”

The Flip Off premieres on HGTV Wednesday, January 29, at 8 p.m. ET and available the same day to stream on Max and Discovery+.

‘The Rookie’ Season 7 Trailer: Nolan Hunts Bailey’s Ex, Tim and Lucy Heat Up

2 January 2025 at 11:00

The Rookie’s return is just around the corner and season 7 is bringing more drama, more baddies and more steamy scenes with Chenford!

In Us Weekly’s exclusive first look at the official season 7 trailer, it’s clear that the LAPD has its hands full now that two criminals have escaped — one being Officer John Nolan’s (Nathan Fillion) wife, Bailey Nune (Jenna Dewan), ex-husband, Jason Wyler (Steve Kazee).

“These are violent criminals so they’re not going to go down easy,” Tim Bradford (Eric Winter) teases in the trailer before scenes of the LAPD taking down one bad guy after the other flash across the screen.

After Nyla Harper (Mekia Cox) tells the precinct that both Oscar Hutchinson (Matthew Glave) and Jason are still “at large,” Nolan begins to worry about Bailey’s safety.

“Jason’s escape puts my wife’s life in danger,” Nolan says after his spouse admits, “There’s a lot I haven’t told you about Jason.”

In a pivotal scene, paramedic/firefighter Bailey gets out of her rig and appears to come face to face with Jason, who looks like he might run her over with his car.

“Being a cop is stressful, 24/7,” Lucy Chen (Melissa O’Neil) says as action-packed moments continue to play out in the background. “In this job we have to separate from the personal. It’s the hardest thing we have to do.”

Suspense, action and fear aren’t the only emotions viewers will feel this season. There appear to be some light-hearted moments as well, as Nolan “commandeers” a scooter to apprehend a suspect.

“How the hell did you get here before me?” his partner Celina Juarez (Lisseth Chavez) asks him when she arrives after Nolan on scene. “Work harder not smarter,” he says while huffing and puffing over the pursuit.

Plus, Lucy and Tim (otherwise known as Chenford) engage in a playful game of who can train the better rookie, hinting that their icy exchanges to end season 6 are finally over.

The twosome, who previously dated, also have a very steamy moment together, giving fans even more hope that they’ll get back together.

“We shouldn’t,” Lucy tells Tim as he stands shirtless in front of her in one scene. “I know,” Tim replies. The pair then lean in closer before the camera pans away.

“Every year on the job is different. Every case is different. You never really stop being a rookie,” Harper teases.

Angela Lopez (Alyssa Diaz) ominously warns, “Because if we lose control, bad things happen.”

Season 7 of The Rookie premieres on ABC Tuesday, January 7, at 10 p.m. ET.

Southern Hospitality’s TJ Claims Joe ‘Cheated’ on Danielle With Luann: Watch

2 January 2025 at 09:00

 

TJ Dinch is adamant that costar Joe Bradley hooked up with Luann de Lesseps in Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek at season 3 of Southern Hospitality.

TJ and Joe used to be best friends, but when Southern Hospitality returns on Thursday, January 2, they are feuding — and Joe’s new girlfriend, Maddi Reese, tries to bring them back together during the premiere.

“TJ, I feel like you gotta talk to Joe,” Maddi tells TJ in Us’ exclusive look at the Thursday episode. While she acknowledges that their issues “run deep,” Maddi is hopeful TJ will hear Joe out so they can work at Republic Garden & Lounge without any issues.

“I’m really just trying to have respect for myself,” TJ responds. “You think you can just talk s— and I’m not going to retaliate and show everyone who the f— you really are?”

Maddi argues that TJ was the one who “talked s— first,” but TJ denies the accusation.

“No, babe. I gave him the opportunity to tell the truth when he cheated on Danielle [Olivera], when he f—ed Luann. That’s what I f—ng did,” TJ fires back.

Us broke the news in January 2024 that Luann, 59, and Joe were “all over each other” at NYC’s The Dream Hotel after taping an episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen together.

At the time, Joe was dating Summer House alum Danielle, 36, whom he began seeing after getting close at BravoCon in November 2023.

Southern Hospitality's Joe Bradley Denies Luann de Lesseps Hookup at Reunion

During the season 2 Southern Hospitality reunion, which aired in February, Joe denied hooking up with the Real Housewives of New York City alum. However, he teased that he is the “mayor of MILF city” at his place of work in Charleston.

“This is the truth, me and Luann, we got a drink and hit it off,” Joe said at the time. “I did cross a line at the hotel, but I did not kiss her.”

TJ, however, claimed that Joe “hooked up” with Luann and told him he “should be honest” about what transpired. TJ added that he was “99 percent” sure that Joe had an intimate relationship with Luann, but Joe denied it again and told his former BFF to “f— off!”

While Danielle — who broke up with Joe in February — later told Andy Cohen that she is “also 99 percent sure” that Joe hooked up with Luann, Joe remained adamant that he was telling the truth.

When the cameras picked up for season 3 of Southern Hospitality, TJ and Joe were not on speaking terms, which is clear in Us’ exclusive clip above.

“Once a cheater, always a cheater,” TJ says of Joe in the season premiere, telling Maddi, “He cheated on Danielle. He cheated on f—ing Natalie. He cheated on all his past relationships.”

‘Southern Hospitality’ Season 3 Trailer: Maddi and Joe Have Vegas Wedding

TJ alleges, “I wouldn’t be a friend if I didn’t tell you” before comparing Joe to Maddi’s cheating ex-boyfriend Trevor Stokes. (Fans saw Trevor’s past affairs come to light during season 2, before Maddi finally broke things off in late 2023.)

“I don’t know how different Joe’s relationship characteristics are different than Trevor’s,” TJ quips.

Maddi, however, insists that TJ is “wrong” and that she knows who Joe really is, calling him “my best friend.” (Maddi and Joe exclusively told Us in December 2024 that they began dating in April of that year after being friends for four years.)

Everything to Know About ‘Southern Hospitality’ Season 3: Who’s in and Out?

“Everything that TJ’s telling me is not news to me. But I know that Joe would never do that to me,” Maddi tells the cameras. “He was my friend for years. I know all his red flags.”

Joe, meanwhile, reveals in his own confessional that he doesn’t “trust” TJ and is worried he will “get in between my relationship once again.”

The season 3 premiere preview ends with Joe telling TJ that they “gotta talk,” but TJ doesn’t appear to be open to a conversation.

“He’s not even willing to look me in the eyes,” Joe tells Maddi and their friend Emmy Sharrett during a group pool party. “I don’t know if you deserve that,” TJ responds.

Season 3 of Southern Hospitality premieres on Bravo Thursday, January 2, at 9 p.m. ET.

Ricki Lake Suggests Watching Episodes of Her Talk Show High: ‘It’s a Trip’

2 January 2025 at 06:00

Ricki Lake used to call herself “Nancy Reagan‘s disciple” because she would always say “no to drugs,” but after growing her own cannabis, she’s loosened up about smoking weed — and doesn’t take herself too seriously.

“What’s a good thing to watch when you’re high? Watching old episodes of The Ricki Lake Show on YouTube,” Lake, 56, exclusively reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly while promoting her collaboration with Stone Road Farms for her Ricki Lake & Bake line.

The actress laughs at the thought of smoking weed while streaming re-reruns of her second talk show, which ended in 2013 after one season. “That would be a really, really fun pastime over this holiday season,” she teases, adding, “It’s a trip.” (Lake also hosted Ricki Lake from 1992 to 2004.)

Although Lake jokes about watching The Ricki Lake Show under the influence, she tells Us that when she filmed her two series cannabis was not even on her radar.

Ricki Lake Launches Her Own Cannabis Product Called ‘Ricki Lake & Bake’

During that time frame, the Hairspray star recalls being “very judgmental, very fearful” and “close-minded” about weed, hence the comparison to Reagan, who famously created the “Just Say No” to drugs campaign in the ‘80s.

“I was really adamantly against all illegal drugs,” Lake explains, noting that now she’s “turned a full 180 where I now have such reverence for this medicine, and I love it recreationally.”

Once Lake began growing her own weed in Malibu, California — which led to her eventual collaboration with Stone Road Farms — she became a true believer in its healing properties. Plus, she says smoking or drinking cannabis does make a lot of activities more fun.

“We love taking gummies for the theater,” Lake tells Us of her and her husband, Ross Burningham’s theatergoing preferences. “It makes the Broadway experience that much better.”

She explains, “We joke about Moulin Rouge. … Moulin Rouge is kind of, not the best show, but [seeing] it high it was amazing. My husband was humming that thing for days. It was so funny.”

Lake notes that although she doesn’t have a favorite film to watch high, she points to Elf as a “good movie to watch stoned” during the holiday season.

She adds that she likes to do “everything” stoned but says she’s “not high all day” because she has to “function,” warning Us, “There’s a fine line. You definitely can take too much. So I am definitely on the side of less is more.”

That being said, Lake and her spouse usually take cannabis in some way, shape or form in the evenings to unwind. “For me it’s mostly night time relaxing, watching TV, connecting with my husband. And getting those amazing REM nights of sleep,” she reveals.

Lake says that as she’s matured, she’s learned to “prioritize getting the rest,” so cannabis has assisted in her sleep cycle. It has also aided in her health journey.

“I love cannabis. I drink it,” she explains, noting that the brand she consumes is “low in calories” so it’s a better fit than drinking a glass of wine with lots of sugar before bed.

Lake adds: “I’d rather have my cannabis drink, which is, like, 40 calories. You get that nice buzz. It just takes the edge off.”

For fans who want to try Lake’s own cannabis product, Ricki Lake & Bake, they can purchase a half an ounce of preground roll-your-own pouch produced by Stone Road Farms. (Available in dispensaries across California.)

“I obviously believe in this medicine, and in Stone Road’s brand and what they’ve built,” Lake said in a press release earlier this month. “It is so aligned with where I am in my life, and I’m so happy to be bringing this out.”

The special cannabis was designed by Stone Road Farms’ founder and CEO Lex Corwin with Lake’s legacy in mind. “It’s a tribute to her iconic career and long-standing cannabis advocacy,” Corwin said in his own statement.
