Kylie Jenner recently got raw and honest about the complexities of raising children in the spotlight while reflecting on her own unconventional upbringing. 

As her children grow older, the reality star is finding herself navigating difficult conversations about why their family is so famous, and it has led to an unexpected wave of emotions for her. 

Meanwhile, the reality TV star’s love life seems to be thriving, as she and her long-time partner, Timothée Chalamet, are reportedly discussing getting engaged soon.

Kylie Jenner Gets Emotional Explaining Fame to Stormi

During the debut episode of Kid Cudi’s podcast, “Big Bro with Kid Cudi,” 28-year-old Jenner shared a touching story about a conversation with her 8-year-old daughter, Stormi. When Stormi asked why they were famous, Kylie explained that the family started a television show when she was only a year older than Stormi is now. 

This prompted a mother-daughter viewing session of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” though Jenner admitted she had to fast-forward through inappropriate segments to find the “cute scenes” suitable for a child. The experience proved to be far more overwhelming than she anticipated, leaving her weeping in her bed afterward.

“I was so emotional after. I don’t know what hit me, but I was weeping in my bed. I don’t know why that happened to me,” she said.

Jenner attributed her emotional reaction to seeing her daughter reach the same age she was when her life changed forever. She noted a bittersweet feeling of being grateful for their success while mourning the simple closeness of the family living under one roof. 

Today, Jenner relies on Stormi and her 4-year-old son, Aire, to keep her grounded, noting that they love her without understanding the chaos of the outside world. However, she confessed to being “scared” about how fame and the digital world will affect her children as they enter their teenage years, admitting she isn’t sure how she will handle Stormi turning 15.

Timothée Chalamet Reportedly Has A Good Rapport With Kylie Jenner’s Children

While Jenner bears the heavy responsibility of explaining her public life to her children, she is also balancing a flourishing personal life with a long-term partner. 

Chalamet has reportedly successfully earned a soft spot with Jenner’s children, Stormi, 8, and Aire, 4, after three years of dating their mother. According to The Blast, an insider shared that Chalamet has become a consistent part of the children’s lives and is “really great with them.” 

This development marks a major milestone for the couple, who have become increasingly vocal about their love for one another and are frequently seen displaying public affection. 

The transition for Chalamet to enter the children’s lives was a deliberate and careful process, as Jenner took her time before making any formal introductions. The source explained that the couple purposefully kept that part of their lives separate for a while to ensure the timing was right.

The Businesswoman’s Relationship With Timothée Chalamet Is Reportedly Getting Serious

The strong connection Chalamet has built with Jenner’s children has naturally led the couple to discuss a more permanent future together. After three years of dating, sources close to the pair suggest that their relationship has reached a serious and committed stage where marriage and expanding their family are frequent topics of conversation. 

Their bond was on full display at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty, where they appeared very much in love, further fueling rumors that they are ready to take the next step in their journey as a couple.

According to The Blast, a source reported that Jenner and Chalamet are “very serious and committed to each other” and have established a strong rhythm in their daily lives. 

Additionally, besides an engagement, the couple is also reportedly on the same page regarding having children together.

Kylie Jenner Already Reportedly Calls Timothée Chalamet Her ‘Husband’ 

While the couple’s shared vision for a future includes expanding their family, their transition toward a formal engagement appears to be a natural progression of their current lifestyle. 

Sources close to the pair have confirmed that serious discussions about getting engaged this year are well underway, per The Blast. 

Despite the high-profile nature of such a milestone, those in their inner circle suggest that making the relationship official wouldn’t actually alter their daily dynamic. In fact, Kylie already reportedly refers to Chalamet as her “husband” in private jokes, signaling that they already view their commitment as a permanent one.

The Reality TV Star Is Open To Trying More Acting Roles

While Kylie and Chalamet continue to build a balanced life together, the reality star is also looking to expand her horizons beyond her current business empire.

The billionaire entrepreneur recently revealed her surprising aspirations to pursue a serious acting career. She shared that she has already begun receiving scripts and is waiting for the perfect project to make her next big move.

Kylie admitted that while she hasn’t found the right script yet, she “100% want[s] to do more” in the future, per The Blast.

Marvin Sapp & Dr. La’Boris Cole Tie The Knot In Stunning Ceremony

According to Essence, Marvin Sapp and La’Boris Cole made it official at The Chosen Vessel Church on March 20. Marvin came through with not one, but two suits for the big day. He rocked a classic black tuxedo for the ceremony and later changed into a navy blue suit. La’Boris shut it DOWN in a strapless, floor-length white gown with a dramatic train, giving very much Queen energy! The reception seemed to be an all-black affair. Pictures showed Marvin turning up on the dance floor while guests cheesed hard in their all-black fits.

From Love To “I Do”: How Marvin & La’Boris Found Their Way To Forever

Back in February, Marvin Sapp spoke with Essence and kept it real about how he managed to pop the question to La’Boris Cole after years of friendship. The Gospel Python turned her birthday celebration into a full-on surprise proposal. La’Boris thought the night was going to be focused on birthday festivities, but Marvin had other plans. He turned her big day into a family moment, with loved ones ready to watch him drop to one knee and ask for her hand in marriage. Although they ended up tying the knot just about a month later, the couple never shared details on their ceremony plans.

Marvin also shared that he and La’Boris had been friends for over a decade before they decided to take things to the next level. He took his time getting back outside after losing his wife, MaLinda Prince Sapp, to colon cancer in 2010. After her passing, he focused on navigating life as a widower and raising his three kids.

Dr. La’Boris Cole might be Marvin Sapp’s Queen now, but she’s also a therapist and ministry leader. She built and runs the Born 2 Danz Worship Art Conference and leads Cole Associates & Counselors of Texas, her very own behavioral health practice.

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City alum Jen Shah is peeling back the curtain on her life under home confinement after being released from prison.

“I’m on home confinement until August, or possibly a little bit before that,” Shah, 52, revealed in an interview with People published on Friday, April 3. “You still get to go out; you can request to go out for employment reasons, for work, religious needs — whatever you need to do based on your security level. But everything you do has to be approved.”

The former Bravo star revealed that she can even run errands to places like Target. At the same time, she must wear an ankle monitor that knows when she leaves her residence and comes back.

“I can go to Target. It’s called hygiene passes,” she shared. “You get to go to the store and Target or different places like that to do your shopping and take care of things.”

Jen Shah dropped some surprising bombshells about her marriage, life behind bars and more in her first interview since being released from prison. “I was wrong,” Shah, 52, told People on Wednesday, April 1, about what led to her 33-month prison sentence. “I made wrong decisions. I should have done things differently. I should have been […]

Shah was sentenced in 2023 to prison for her role in a yearslong telemarketing scheme that the government said defrauded innocent people across the country. After serving less than three years at a federal prison camp in Texas, Shah was released in December 2025.

When asked how she is making money after prison, Shah said she is working on many different projects and “looking at different opportunities in the media and entertainment industry.”

“I still have a lot to say, so whether that’s in a book, on a podcast — there’s lots of options,” she explained. “And I really want to create a fictional musical about life in a woman’s prison. I think it would be a great Broadway show.”

As she works to pay back more than $6.6 million in restitution, Shah is quick to say she was “wrong” and “should have done things differently.”

Moving forward, she hopes to spread some positivity and use her fame for good.

“I found my way of healing through service there, so I want to continue to do advocacy work,” she explained. “That’s something I’m passionate about, especially when it comes to the children of incarcerated women, who are often left alone when their mothers are taken away from them.”

As for a possible return to The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Shah believes in never say never. After Andy Cohen’s strong comments that it likely won’t happen, the Utah resident isn’t focused on it.

“I appreciate the show and the time I had on it, because it did afford me a platform that I wasn’t able to have before,” she said. “I guess right now at this time, anything is possible. All I can say is, whatever I decide to work on moving forward has to align with my values and my family. I wasn’t good at setting boundaries before, but I’m much better at those now and there are things that I will accept and not accept.”

Succession star Brian Cox shared his unfiltered thoughts on Margot Robbie and other celebrities in a scathing new interview.

“Margot Robbie is far too beautiful for that role in [Wuthering Heights],” Cox, 79, told The Times in an interview published on Friday, April 3. “I mean, I think there should be something more of the Gypsy about her, but it’s wrong of me to judge. It may be a brilliant film.”

Robbie, 35, stars opposite Jacob Elordi as Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, respectively, in the adaptation of Emily Brontë’s famous novel. Both the Barbie actress, who was also a producer on the film, and Elordi, 28, previously received backlash for their casting, as fans argued that they did not match the physical descriptions of their characters. (Both Catherine and Heathcliff are meant to be teenagers in the novel.)

Cox also mocked Robbie’s Australian accent while discussing the role, quipping, “ ‘Keith Cliff! It’s me, Cathy!’ ‘How ya doing, Keith? Awright?’ ‘Yeah, I’m awright!’ ”

Related: Jeremy Strong Seemingly Claps Back at Costar Critiques of His Method Acting

Jeremy Strong is subtly weighing in on his former Succession costars poking fun at his method acting. The actor, 46, elaborated on his process while discussing his role as Roy Cohn in The Apprentice film, telling Deadline on Tuesday, January 7, “When I look at the kind of transformational work based on historical characters that […]

Elsewhere in the interview, Cox took aim at President Donald Trump.

“Trump doesn’t give a s*** about the people. He’s only interested in the oil [in Iran]. There’s just sheer f***g greed motivating him, nothing else. The idea he’s liberating people is nonsense,” he said.

The Times article also included previous quotes on Quentin Tarantino, Kevin Spacey, Johnny Depp and Edward Norton, which Cox’s reps clarified to Us Weekly were from his 2022 autobiography, Putting the Rabbit in the Hat.

In his memoir, Cox described Tarantino’s work as “meretricious” — defined as “apparently attractive but having in reality no value or integrity.”

In his interview with The Times, Cox further said of the 63-year-old director, “[When directing] I like to honor the actor’s performance. With a Quentin Tarantino film, what you see is all Quentin Tarantino. That’s not me. I don’t want to do that.”

Cox also wrote in his memoir that Spacey, 66 — his costar in the 1994 film Iron Will — is a “stupid, stupid man.”

In the book, Cox wrote that he turned down a role in Pirates of the Caribbean because he didn’t want to work with Depp, 62, calling the actor “so overblown, so overrated.” (He later admitted that he “regretted” making the comment about Depp and “was just being harsh.”)

Meanwhile, he called Norton, 56, “a pain in the arse.” (Cox and Norton costarred in the 2002 drama 25th Hour, directed by Spike Lee.)

Cox has made headlines for years with his candid assessments of fellow Hollywood stars. Back in 2024, he slammed Joaquin Phoenix’s performance in Napoleon, calling it “truly terrible.” He has also frequently spoken out against “f***ing annoying” method acting, particularly when done by Succession costar Jeremy Strong.

Cox was again asked about Strong, 47, in his interview with The Times.

“I don’t want to go on about Jeremy, because I’ve got into a lot of problems and he’s begged me to stop talking about him. He’s a good actor, Jeremy,” Cox told the outlet.

When asked by the outlet if his opinions on Hollywood talent have cost him anything, Cox responded, “Well, I don’t know yet if it’s caused me problems. I mean, my wife [Nicole Ansari-Cox] keeps saying, ‘Brian, be careful. Brian, be careful.’ I think, ‘F*** it, I don’t want to be careful anymore! I’ll be 80 this year. F*** I’m gonna say what I want to say.’”

With the state of streaming right now, there are constant shows being dropped — some that slip by quietly, and others that arrive with a big splash and only get bigger. That’s exactly what happened last year when The Perfect Couple debuted on Netflix. The six-episode crime drama had all the markings of a late-summer obsession: a stacked cast, a glossy “beach read” adaptation, and a murder mystery baked into the lives of the ultra-wealthy. It’s the kind of show that feels engineered for a weekend binge, but somehow works even better when you knock it out in one sitting.

And while The Perfect Couple doesn’t completely reinvent the genre, that’s not really the point. This is a comfort-viewing mystery at its best, leaning into familiar tropes while elevating them through performance and style. Even when the twists feel slightly telegraphed, the show remains undeniably watchable, anchored by a cast and creative team that know exactly how to navigate its mix of melodrama and suspense.

What Is Netflix’s Mystery Series ‘The Perfect Couple’ About?

Set against the wealthy, beachfront backdrop of Nantucket, The Perfect Couple is a classic whodunit filled with complex characters and tangled relationships. The series kicks off with what should be a lavish wedding weekend, only for everything to unravel when a body turns up just hours before the ceremony. From that moment on, every member of the wedding party becomes a suspect, and the glossy facade of this seemingly perfect family begins to crack.

The story centers on Greer Garrison Winbury (Nicole Kidman), a famous novelist whose carefully curated life is suddenly thrown into chaos. She and her husband Tag (Liev Schreiber) appear to have a storybook marriage, but beneath the surface lies tension and secrets that quickly come to light. As investigators dig deeper and family members begin turning on one another, long-held secrets and interpersonal fractures emerge, transforming what should have been a celebration into something far more volatile.

Surrounding them is an ensemble that includes standout performances from Eve Hewson, Meghann Fahy, and Dakota Fanning, each bringing a distinct energy to characters who are as flawed as they are fascinating. Based on the novel by Elin Hilderbrand, the series stays true to the spirit of its source material while making key changes — including a different ending from the book — to better suit television. With all six episodes directed by Susanne Bier, the show maintains a consistent visual and tonal identity, balancing sun-drenched luxury with a creeping sense of unease. Even when some of the narrative beats feel familiar, the pacing makes it incredibly easy to binge in one sitting, elevated by performances that are stronger than the material itself.

‘The Perfect Couple’s Performances Make the Netflix Series So Addictive

What ultimately elevates The Perfect Couple beyond its predictable edges is the strength of its performances. Nicole Kidman, who also serves as a producer, is particularly compelling as Greer, a woman who has spent years controlling her narrative, only to watch that control slip away in increasingly public ways. It’s a performance that blends vulnerability with calculation, making Greer as frustrating as she is fascinating — a space Kidman has come to own in her TV work.

Liev Schreiber is just as strong as Tag, balancing an easygoing charm with something far more unsettling beneath the surface. The ensemble around them adds depth, especially Eve Hewson as Amelia, the outsider marrying into the family, and Dakota Fanning as Abby, who brings a sharper, more calculating edge. Hewson, in particular, serves as the emotional anchor, grounding the series even as the drama escalates. Together, the cast creates a dynamic that keeps the show engaging, even when the mystery itself starts to feel secondary.

That engagement translated into massive viewership, with The Perfect Couple becoming one of Netflix’s biggest hits and racking up billions of minutes watched. Its success has already led to a continuation, with a second season announced as an anthology inspired by Elin Hilderbrand’s 2024 novel Swan Song, centered on a new wealthy family. Even if the series doesn’t break new ground, it doesn’t need to. With a compelling cast, a polished aesthetic and just enough twists to keep you hooked, it delivers exactly what it promises and is an entertaining mystery that’s almost impossible not to finish in one night.

Nicole Kidman and Simon Baker‘s close red carpet appearance has sparked widespread speculation, with insiders claiming it has unsettled both their inner circles.

Reports suggest the actress’s ex-husband, Keith Urban, is questioning their bond, while Baker’s ex-wife, Rebecca Rigg, is said to be surprised by the rumors.

As the rumors intensify, neither Nicole Kidman nor Simon Baker publicly addressed the nature of their relationship.

Keith Urban Reportedly Upset Over Nicole Kidman And Simon Baker’s Cozy Red Carpet Appearance

Kidman and Baker’s affectionate red carpet appearance is said to be stirring tension, with sources claiming it has unsettled the actress’s ex-husband, country music star Keith Urban.

“Keith can’t believe Simon would do this to him,” an insider told Globe. “He considered him a good friend, and now, everyone’s whispering that he and Nicole are an item. Of course, it feels like a betrayal.”

According to the source, Urban isn’t convinced by explanations that the moment was simply harmless promotion.

Despite being told nothing is going on, the photos, including the pair holding hands and appearing close, have left him uneasy.

“From where he’s standing, it looks like a line has been crossed, whether they admit to it or not,” the insider added.

The Country Star Allegedly Feels The Actress Is ‘Totally Disrespecting Him’

The situation is said to be particularly difficult for Urban, given the public narrative surrounding his past relationship with Kidman.

“He’s had to endure so much negativity directed towards him, and he’s never said a word to defend himself out of respect for Nicole,” the source added.

They continued, “And yet, here she is totally disrespecting him, or at least that’s how he sees it.”

The situation has also reportedly left Urban questioning the true nature of Kidman and Baker’s relationship.

According to an insider, he had always believed the pair were simply “good friends,” but recent events have made him less certain.

Simon Baker’s Ex-Wife Was Reportedly Shocked By His Romance Rumors With Nicole Kidman

Speculation intensified after the “Babygirl” actress, fresh from her divorce, appeared alongside Baker, her longtime friend and “Scarpetta” co-star, at the project’s premiere.

The pair arrived hand-in-hand, posed closely for photos, and were later seen spending time together at an after-party, further fueling rumors about their chemistry.

While some fans have welcomed the possibility of a romance, Baker’s ex-wife, Rigg, is said to have been caught off guard.

Sources claim she was “totally in the dark,” particularly given her continued openness with Baker and her close bond with Kidman, who is godmother to their son, Harry.

Those close to Rigg are also reportedly surprised, with some describing the situation as insensitive given their longstanding personal ties.

“For Nicole to act all coy is really breaking the girl code,” the insider claimed, per New Idea.

Nicole Kidman And Simon Baker Fuel Romance Rumors Amid Strong On-Screen Chemistry

Adding to the speculation, both Kidman and Baker have spoken warmly about each other in recent interviews.

Discussing a scene in “Scarpetta,” Baker admitted their on-screen kiss initially felt “kind of strange,” though he quickly moved past it.

Kidman, however, dismissed any awkwardness, explaining that their long history made their chemistry feel natural and effortless.

“I think because of our history together, that’s in-built, so we didn’t have to work for that, that just vibrates,” she noted, per the Daily Telegraph.

Despite the growing buzz, neither Kidman nor Baker has publicly addressed the rumors. Still, insiders suggest that actress Naomi Watts is quietly supportive of the idea of them becoming more than friends.

According to one source, while their relationship has always been platonic, Baker has long admired Kidman, making the possibility of something deeper unsurprising.

However, Kidman is said to still be processing her recent divorce and may be reluctant to risk a longstanding friendship by pursuing anything romantic.

Nicole Kidman Revealed She Learned To Perform Autopsies For ‘Scarpetta’ Role

Meanwhile, last month during a Monday appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” Kidman revealed she picked up an unexpected skill while preparing for her role in “Scarpetta.”

The “Big Little Lies” actress shared that she trained extensively as a medical examiner, even learning how to perform an autopsy.

The 58-year-old explained that she took the role seriously, gaining hands-on knowledge of the process, including identifying and removing organs. She joked that, if necessary, she could carry out the procedure herself.

“I can remove all the organs. I can name them all,” she said, per Fox News.

Kidman also laughed about a moment when Fallon’s team suggested she demonstrate her new skill on the show, an idea that caught the host off guard. She admitted it probably wouldn’t have been the most appealing segment for viewers. “But I can remove the lungs, the liver and the gallbladder, and the intestines,” she added.

Describing the experience as simply “part of the job,” Kidman said she worked closely with a professional medical examiner, studying his techniques to bring authenticity to her role in “Scarpetta.”

Zendaya and Robert Pattinson‘s new movie, The Drama, is facing criticism for its marketing method while hiding the dark twist of the film.

Warning: Spoilers for The Drama below.

The Drama follows engaged couple Charlie (Pattinson) and Emma (Zendaya), who are gearing up to walk down the aisle. However, days before their nuptials, the pair and a group of friends get together and reveal the worst thing they’ve ever done. While it was teased in the trailer that Emma’s secret causes outrage amongst the group, details are not shared..

After the film hit theaters on Friday, April 3, it was revealed that Emma planned to commit a school shooting as a teenager but ultimately decided not go through with it.

Since details of The Drama’s twist have circulated online, many have condemned the film for its light-hearted and wedding-themed marketing plan, suggesting that the movie should be open and sensitive about the twist.

Zendaya and Pattinson have attended several press events together to speak about the film, in which the actress has worn bridal-themed outfits. For The Drama’s various premieres, she’s debuted looks that represent the timeless practice of something old, borrowed, new and blue for a bride. Both Zendaya and Pattinson have also been asked questions about marriage and weddings in multiple interviews, causing some to feel like the overall tone of the film has been marketed as a straight romance or comedy.

Additional promotional endeavors for The Drama have included a social campaign that used the style of a classic wedding invitation as well as a one-day wedding chapel in Las Vegas back in March.

On Thursday, April 2, gun control advocacy group March for Our Lives slammed The Drama’s marketing plan as the sensitive topic has not been addressed.

“The film may be attempting to engage real questions about accountability and change, but A24’s marketing does not meet it there,” the organization wrote via Instagram. “With a subject this serious, especially in the U.S., that conversation cannot begin and end on screen. It has to carry through in how the film is presented.”

Alyson Michalka and AJ Michalka, who make up the duo Aly and AJ, agreed in the comments section of March for Our Lives’ post. (The sisters survived a mass shooting outside one of their concerts in 2022.)

“Couldn’t agree more,” read a reply from the singers’ joint account. “The marketing made us sick when we found out the plot twist.”

Additional users also slammed The Drama for not being forthcoming about the twist.

“Thank you for this ‘spoiler.’ It is marketed as a cute rom com. I was going to see it. If I had found out this plot point in the theater I would have walked out,” one fan wrote. “This is not casual conversation. Now I will not be going to see this. Do they give any sort of warning about this plot point in [the] opening credits or anything?”

Another person responded, “Bro, it’s about a girl who planned a school shooting? All of the marketing has been like a young adult rom com. Wtf?”

While some fans criticized the movie’s quietness about the plot, others defended it.

“I definitely don’t think it was ever labeled as a romantic rom com. And I also don’t think the plot is not far off from how a lot of kids may have felt/feel,” one user wrote in the comments. “It brings awareness to the societal context we are raising our children in.”

Another retorted, “You people are so anti art it’s insane. Sometimes art has to make you uncomfortable.”
