King Charles Sends Harry & Meghan a Blunt Royal Reality Check
The royal welcome mat comes with a few conditions.
King Charles has made it crystal clear where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stand after their return to Britain: They may be back in the U.K., but they’re not back in the royal fold. The monarch authorized new guidance reaffirming that the Sussexes remain non-working royals and are treated more like private citizens.
“Their styles as His and Her Royal Highness remain in abeyance and are not used,” Lord Chamberlain Richard Benyon wrote.
The guidance also stressed that the couple’s charitable ventures are personal, while their office remains separate from the royal household.
So while Harry and Meghan may be back on British soil, don’t expect a royal reboot anytime soon.
Jennifer & John Spotted Cozying Up on Rare Outing
Jennifer Garner and John Miller are taking their romance out of hiding – at least for a minute.
The notoriously private couple made a rare appearance together in Brentwood over Labor Day weekend, with Garner going makeup-free in sweats while Miller kept things equally casual. But there was still a little romance: Miller put his hand on Garner’s arm before the pair shared a hug.
The two have been dating on and off since 2018, briefly splitting in 2020 before rekindling the following year – and largely keeping their relationship away from the cameras ever since.
A source previously said, “John is basically living with Jennifer,” though only part-time.
Eight years in, these two are still making low-key look like a love language.
Lori Ends 30-Year Marriage With Prenup in Play
Aunt Becky is officially calling time on her nearly 30-year marriage.
Lori Loughlin has filed for divorce from Mossimo Giannulli, months after the pair revealed they had separated. Court documents cite “irreconcilable differences” and reveal the longtime couple signed a prenup, which was later amended in 2015.
The Full House alum is asking for spousal support to be decided later and wants Giannulli to cover her legal fees.
The exes, who share daughters Olivia Jade and Bella, had reportedly been struggling for some time, with a source claiming they hadn’t “really operated as a unit for quite some time.”
After almost three decades together, it looks like this Full House is officially splitting up.
Nick, 85, Rocks Wild Beard in Rare Red Carpet Return
Nick Nolte just put the wild in wild-haired.
The 85-year-old Hollywood legend made a rare public appearance at the Venice Film Festival, rocking longer gray locks and a seriously scruffy beard as he stepped back into the spotlight.
Nolte was in Italy for the premiere of Company, the new gothic drama written and directed by Casey Affleck.
The movie – also starring Ben Mendelsohn, Adelaide Clemens, and Scoot McNairy – is competing for Venice’s coveted Golden Lion.
Nolte may keep a low profile these days, but he hasn’t slowed down, continuing to take on roles well into his 80s.
Ivanka Saddles Up — and Critics Let Her Have It
Ivanka Trump saddled up and rode straight into a social media firestorm.
Ivanka shared a dreamy video of herself and 15-year-old daughter Arabella racing horses along a Costa Rica beach at sunset, but critics quickly branded the post “tone-deaf” over its timing.
The backlash intensified as users pointed to the Trump administration’s proposed budgets, which sought to remove restrictions and funding prohibitions against killing federally protected wild horses or selling them for slaughter.
“Where are the other three horsemen of the apocalypse?” one person joked, while another snarked, “Who needs gas when you have a horse?”
Talk about getting off on the wrong hoof.
