After an L.A. whirlwind romance, would our love story last?

After an L.A. whirlwind romance, would our love story last?

Published by Sam Flores

A year after my divorce, I wanted to dip my toe back into dating. Just my toe. No diving. No swimming. Just a dip. I wanted to see “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” at the ArcLight in Santa Monica, share an espresso martini at Paloma on Abbot Kinney Boulevard, take my dog hiking up the Mandeville Canyon Fire Road and dance under the stars to Earth, Wind & Fire at the Hollywood Bowl. Guess what? I did just that. Then, at a little film school gathering at my friend’s house somewhere in Boyle Heights, I saw a friend from graduate school from across the room. I had not seen him in over 20 years. We had moved separately to L.A. to work in the movie business. The last time we saw each other, he took me to a Clippers game, and while I thought the date was splendid, he disappeared on me after he found out I was casually dating a big Hollywood film director. I was in my 20s, and practicing consciously dating …

The Artemis II crew — NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch as well as Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen — splashed down in an Orion space capsule Friday after a 9-day mission to the moon and back. Bill Ingalls/NASA hide caption toggle caption Bill Ingalls/NASA The crew of NASA’s Artemis II mission are safely back on Earth after a nine-day mission took them on a trip around the moon and back, sending humans deeper into space than ever before. To come home safely, the crew — NASA’s Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen — and its capsule had to endure near-record-breaking entry speeds and temperatures up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The Orion spacecraft spent 13 and a half minutes falling through the atmosphere, hitting a top speed of more than 30 times the speed of sound. Orion performed as designed. The capsule’s heat shield protected the crew, and a series of parachutes helped the capsule gently splash down in the Pacific Ocean off the …

The Pitt star Tracy Ifeachor shares rare details about married life following whirlwind romance

Published by Daniella Wilson

Emmys-winning medical drama The Pitt has finally arrived in the UK, introducing audiences to Noah Wyle’s Dr Michael ‘Robby’ Robinavitch and his overworked, underpaid, and resource-strapped Pittsburgh emergency department.  The Pitt has been praised for its realistic take on the healthcare crisis in America with season one tackling the opioid epidemic, unfounded fears around vaccines, and gun violence, and it stars British actress Tracy Ifeachor as Dr Heather Collins, a final-year resident who has a history with Dr Robby, and whom we discover in the opening episode, is pregnant.  Trailer for The Pitt season 1 Tracy auditioned and won the role in 2024; it was a big year for the 41-year-old, as the same year she tied the knot with Adeyemi Eruola, a production manager and broadcast engineer based in London. The pair have remained private, but she tells HELLO! that marriage “is the best”. “Wait for the right person – it is so worth it, even if you’re asked to wait till you’re 50,” she says. “He is the most amazing husband. He would stay up all …

The Whirlwind Voyage of Demi Moore’s Schiaparelli Couture Gown

The Whirlwind Voyage of Demi Moore’s Schiaparelli Couture Gown

Published by Sam Flores

Demi Moore arrived at the 2026 Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, on Sunday night wearing a Schiaparelli couture gown by Daniel Roseberry. The look—a skintight black bustier dress with a trompe l’oeil crocodile tail on the front and a bursting cloud of white tulle at the back—first appeared in January on Roseberry’s couture runway for the label. Moore, and her stylist Brad Goreski, sat front row at that show. We are used to seeing dresses go from the runway to the red carpet, and often assume this to be something like a magic trick. That the internet has popularized side-by-side images of these moments has done little to demystify the process. The reality is that getting a look—any look, be that a custom dress or a runway outfit—on a celebrity is a journey that involves a relentless stylist, a willing designer, an effective publicist, and an army of steadfast assistants. Plus, it must be said, some proper mileage and, regrettably so, a certain carbon footprint. But hey, those flights would be happening …

Why Tom Hiddleston really split from Taylor Swift after whirlwind three-month romance

Why Tom Hiddleston really split from Taylor Swift after whirlwind three-month romance

Published by Daniella Wilson

The Night Manager might be a thriller, but the show promises to deliver some steamy romance moments for Tom Hiddleston’s Jonathan Pine on the side. Season two has picked up with Jonathan in a ‘fluid love triangle’ with Camilla Morrone’s character. While his on-screen romance continues to sizzle, off-screen Tom has been linked to some big names.  Before he met his fiancée and mother to his two children Zawe Ashton, Tom made headlines a decade ago for a high-profile romance with singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, 36. The A-list couple’s three-month relationship burned bright but brief with romantic getaways across Europe and earned them the fan-dubbed portmanteau ‘Hiddleswift’.  So what went wrong? Read on for a look back at the romance that was one of the most talked about pairings in popular culture in 2016.  © Ink Factory / Des Willie / BBCTom Hiddleston is currently starring in The Night Manager How did they meet?  The couple were first linked at one of the biggest celebrity gatherings of the calendar year: The Met Gala.
