Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi have grown close to each other since filming “Wuthering Heights,” with some fans even thinking their chemistry off-camera is a publicity stunt.

However, it appears there may be more than meets the eye, as there seemed to be a tense moment when the Oscar-winning actress appeared at an event alongside her husband, Tom Ackerley, with Elordi also present.

According to an expert, Margot Robbie’s husband let out a “cry for help” with his body language as they all posed for photos on the red carpet.

Tom Ackerley’s Body Language Hints At A ‘Cry For Help’ At An Event Alongside Margot Robbie And Jacob Elordi

“Wuthering Heights” stars Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi’s behavior off-camera has set tongues wagging due to how intimate they seem to be as they promote their new movie.

However, body language expert Judi James shared with the Daily Mail that, whether or not their closeness is what some fans think it is, Robbie’s husband, Tom Ackerley, might not be happy about it, as his body language hinted at a “cry for help” when all three of them recently met at the “Wuthering Heights” premiere afterparty.

In a photo obtained by the news outlet, both men posed on either end of each other alongside Robbie, film’s producer Josey McNamara, and director Emerald Fennell, and James explained that Ackerley’s “mixed emotions smile” suggested “the faintest hint of a cry for help.”

“The posing looks a little cruel here, not just because very few, if many men, could style it out opposite Jacob, but because Tom is not posing next to his wife, which he might have done as her ‘plus one’ for the afterparty evening,” James continued.

“When he does pose with Margot in these photos, he’s still in a sandwich, this time with her producer on the other side,” the body language expert added.

Elordi previously claimed that he and the actress have a “mutual obsession” with each other.

“We have a mutual obsession,” the actor told Fandango. “I think the thing is, regardless of plot or screenplay, if you have the opportunity to share a film set with Margot Robbie, you’re going to make sure you’re within 5 to 10 metres at all times.”

Robbie and Ackerley have been married since around 2016, following their meeting on the set of “Suite Française” in 2013.

They are both co-founders of the production company LuckyChap Entertainment and welcomed their first child together in late 2024.

Although things may have turned awkward during their outing, James explained that Ackerley’s pose looks “relatively mature and relaxed, with one hand in his pocket, suggesting a desire to look suave.”

His wife also remained calm and fully confident, with James noting that she had the “look of a very excited Wuthering showgirl, with her wide eye expression and her wide, teeth-baring smile projecting utter delight, while her splayed legs suggest confidence.”

Fans Roast Margot Robbie’s ‘Slip-Up’ About Her Husband

Meanwhile, the “Barbie” star was roasted by fans for what they thought was a “slip-up” about her husband during an interview on the red carpet, per the DailyMail.

While speaking on the red carpet, Robbie weighed in on the February 13 release date, explaining that she would go and see the film with her “husband… Or whoever,” and that led fans to joke that she “must be in an open relationship.”

“If it was me, I’d want to go with all my girlfriends on a Friday night, I’d want to have cocktails, maybe dress up a little bit,” she said. “Then I’d go with my husband… or whoever, on Valentine’s Day. So it felt like the perfect weekend to release it.”

One fan wrote, “Do they have an open marriage or…?? My husband or whoever lol’; ‘husband or whoever LOLOL.”

Another added, “AHAHAHAH poor husband; ‘My husband or Jacob Elordi, or whoever???’”

The Actress Said She Felt ‘Weak At The Knees’

During a chat with British Vogue, Robbie recalled her experience filming with Elordi, admitting that some of their intimate scenes left her feeling “weak at the knees.”

One of the scenes had Heathcliff, played by Elordi, effortlessly lift her character Cathy with one arm, and another where he protected her face from the rain.

Speaking about the reason she felt that way about the scenes, the actress admitted that such old-fashioned masculine gestures were the kind women used to swoon over.

“It almost made me weak at the knees,” she admitted. “It was the little things that we loved as two women in our 30s, and this movie is primarily for people in our demographic. These epic romances and period pieces aren’t often made by women.”

In a previous chat with Porter, Robbie spoke about her marriage dynamics with Ackerley, noting that marriage made things better for them.

“I’m a great advocate of doing business with your partner,” Robbie said, referencing the production company they own together. “Being married is actually the most fun ever; life got way more fun somehow.”

“I have a responsibility being someone’s wife,” she said. “I want to be better.”

The “Suicide Squad” actress also commented on how they make their relationship work despite their conflicting schedules.

“Even if we both have to fly to a country in between where we both are for one night, we’ll do it and then fly back to work the next day,” she said at the time. “And we speak all day, every day on the phone.”

Jury Duty is expanding with a new season — but where is the original cast now?

The comedy premiered on Prime Video in 2023 and followed a group of prospective jurors going through the selection process and civil trial. Most of the cast members were actually actors except for one participant, who was unaware that everything was fictionalized.

Ronald Gladden was a contractor who answered a vague Craigslist ad to participate in a documentary about jury duty.

“I was just under the impression that this was going to be a behind-the-scenes look … or what it was like for jury duty,” he recalled to Access Hollywood in April 2023. “So, I signed up for what I thought was a documentary. I didn’t really know what was going on until the end.”

In addition to Gladden, the show featured James Marsden, Mekki Leeper, Edy Modica, Ishmel Sahid, David Brown, Cassandra Blair, Maria Russell and Kirk Fox. Susan Berger, Ross Kimball, Pramode Kumar, Ron Song and Brandon Loeser also appeared.

Season 2, which premiered in March 2026, follows Anthony Norman, who is hired at Rockin’ Grandma’s Hot Sauce as a temp while unaware that the company is fake.

Before Jury Duty, Ronald Gladden was a solar contractor who responded to a Craigslist advertisement asking for people willing to be part of a jury pool for a civil trial that would be covered by a TV documentary crew. He rose to stardom after being the only “juror” unaware the entire case was fake. He later quit his day job and has since pivoted to opportunities as a producer.

James Marsden

James Marsden was already a household name when he played a parody of himself as an alternate juror in Jury Duty. He has since appeared in Paradise, Your Friends & Neighbors and more Sonic the Hedgehog films.

Mekki Leeper

Mekki Leeper, a.k.a. Juror #11, is now starring in NBC’s St. Denis Medical as Matt. He is also set to appear in the upcoming film Famous alongside Zac Efron, Phoebe Dynevor, Nicholas Braun, Debby Ryan, Cory Michael Smith and Bill Pullman.

Counting On Removed From Streaming After Joseph Duggar Arrest

Counting On has been removed from streaming platforms following Joseph Duggar’s recent arrest for child molestation.

The TLC series, which aired from 2015 to 2020, is no longer available to view on HBO Max as of Friday, March 27. Additionally, The US Sun reported that the show has also been pulled from Discovery+.

Some users in Canada and the United Kingdom, meanwhile, have claimed that Counting On is still available to view.

Us Weekly has reached out to Warner Bros. Discovery for comment.

Counting On served as a spinoff to 19 Kids and Counting following its 2015 cancellation amid Joseph’s brother Josh Duggar’s molestation scandal. (Josh was accused of molesting five underage girls, four of whom were his sisters, when he was a teen. In 2021, Josh was arrested for receiving and possessing child pornography. He was found guilty and sentenced to 12.5 years in prison the following year. Josh has since made numerous attempts to appeal his sentence, which have all been denied.)

The series followed the lives of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s older children as they began their own families. Jana, John-David, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joseph, Josiah, Joy-Anna, Jedidiah, Jeremiah, Jason, James, Justin, Jackson, Johannah, Jennifer, Jordyn-Grace and Josie all made appearances.

Joseph and wife Kendra Duggar were featured on Counting On as they began their courtship. During season 6, Joseph asked Kendra’s father, Pastor Paul Caldwell, for his permission to propose. The couple wed one month before the episode aired in October 2017. Joseph and Kendra share four children: Garrett, Addison, Brooklyn and Justus.

News of Counting On’s removal from streaming platforms comes after Joseph was arrested in Arkansas for lewd and lascivious behavior involving molestation of a victim less than 12 years old and lewd and lascivious behavior conducted by a person 18 years or older.

A victim, now 14, claimed that she experienced “several instances of sexual abuse” with Joseph when she was 9 years old. The alleged incidents took place while on a family vacation with the Duggars in Panama City Beach, Florida, back in 2020.

The girl alleged that Joseph “asked [her] to sit on his lap, numerous times” and asked her to “sit on the couch beside [him].” She also claimed that Joseph would cover them with a blanket, where he allegedly touched her inappropriately. She shared that Joseph later “apologized for his actions,” claiming that “the incidents stopped occurring” following the apology.

Joseph was arrested after the victim’s father called the reality star to confront him. During the call, during which police were on the line, Joseph allegedly admitted his actions to the father and to Tontitown detectives. He appeared in court virtually one day after his arrest and did not enter a plea. Joseph, who waived his right to an extradition hearing, is awaiting extradition from Arkansas to Florida.

Shortly after his arrest, Kendra was booked and taken into custody. She and Joseph were both charged with four counts of endangering the welfare of a minor, second degree and four counts of second degree false imprisonment. Kendra was released after paying a $1470 bond.

A spokesperson for the Duggar family told Us in a statement, “[Kendra’s] is a misdemeanor charge totally unrelated to the Florida case.”

If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673). If you or someone you know is experiencing child abuse, call or text Child Help Hotline at 1-800-422-4453.

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau Are All Smiles on Dinner Date

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau prove they are still going strong — and don’t feel their ages — with a recent date night snap.

“How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you were?” Perry, 41, captioned a series of Instagram photos on Friday, March 27.

The caption appeared to be tailored to Perry’s first picture of the couple out to dinner. In the photo, Perry and Trudeau, 54, are both holding up their phones to show their “biological ages” after taking a quiz together.

The “Roar” singer’s result revealed that she is 33.1 years old, which is more than eight years younger than her calendar age. Trudeau’s number was 43, 11 years younger than his real age.

Both Perry and Trudeau had big grins on their faces, with the singer closing her eyes and smiling after realizing they both have young spirits.

The rest of Perry’s photo recap included pictures of her skiing with daughter Daisy, 5, whom she shares with ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom, and getting custom cowboy boots made for her little girl.

The sweet upload comes less than one year after Perry and the former Canadian prime minister were first spotted out to dinner together in July 2025.

A source exclusively told Us Weekly at the time that Perry and Trudeau — who shares kids Xavier, 18, Ella Grace, 17, and Hadrien, 11, with ex-wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau — were “definitely” on a date when they were seen in Montreal, Canada.

The musician kept the start of her relationship with Trudeau quiet for months before they were seen packing on the PDA and kissing during an October 2025 yacht trip off the coast of Santa Barbara, California.

“She’s very happy,” an insider told Us at the time. “She’s trying to keep it low-key, and they’ve spent a lot of private time together. She’s not looking to publicize this relationship.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are under renewed scrutiny as debates continue over their future roles and business direction.

Now, a proposed “half-in, half-out” royal arrangement has resurfaced, while the couple continues to struggle as they pursue independent ventures in Hollywood.

Ex-Vanity Fair editor-in-chief, Tina Brown, is now calling on King Charles to step in and assist Prince Harry and Meghan before things go south for the Montecito-based royals.

King Charles Advised To Act Quickly As Concerns Grow Over Prince Harry And Meghan’s Future

A royal commentator has warned that Harry and Meghan could “crash and burn” unless King Charles intervenes with a new arrangement.

Tina Brown, the former editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair, argues that the couple would benefit from a revised role within the monarchy, something similar to the “half-in, half-out” model Harry had previously proposed.

According to Brown, their current financial partnerships, including deals with streaming platforms, may not be as stable as before, making such a shift increasingly important.

She suggested that rather than watching the situation unfold negatively, the royal family should take a more proactive approach.

“The Sussexes’ revenue streams are starting to dry up,” Brown noted in her recent Substack piece. “Before the Sussexes crash and burn, the House of Windsor needs to put aside schadenfreude and grip the problem. Give Harry and Meghan a limited international role.”

She believes assigning Harry and Meghan limited international responsibilities could offer a practical solution.

Her comments come amid speculation that major media partners may be reconsidering their focus, potentially turning attention toward other senior royals like Prince William and Kate Middleton.

There have also been rumors that Meghan could return to acting, given her past success in series like “Suits” and “Fringe.”

However, according to The Mirror, some observers are suggesting that she and Harry might instead re-engage with royal-style duties, particularly in a charitable or global capacity.

The couple stepped back from official royal responsibilities in 2020 to build a life in California, but ongoing controversies surrounding the royal family have kept discussions about reform alive.

One idea that continues to surface is whether a flexible role for Harry and Meghan could work.

Royal correspondent Jennie Bond previously questioned why a compromise wasn’t possible, asking, “Could it not have worked, half in, half out? He is the spare; he isn’t going to be King, so why couldn’t they have worked out some sort of compromise?”

Bond noted that Harry is a “natural with the crowds: funny, informal, charming,” and the positive reception he often receives during appearances.

Still, a key concern remains: balancing any royal duties with independent commercial ventures.

Despite stepping away from formal roles, Harry and Meghan are expected to travel to Australia soon, where they will take part in philanthropic activities similar to those typically carried out by working members of the royal family.

Meanwhile, outlets like The Telegraph and Daily Mail revealed that Meghan has filed for 12 trademarks in Australia for her lifestyle brand, As Ever, in September 2024, with approvals granted in June 2025.

A spokesperson clarified that these filings are standard practice, noting that Australia is just one of several regions where the brand has been registered.

Records show that As Ever spans a wide range of categories, including skincare, pet products, candles, gardening tools, and digital media such as films, TV content, podcasts, and educational programs.

The brand also extends into jewelry, stationery, furniture, yoga equipment, and hospitality services involving food, drink, and short-term stays.

Additional filings show expansion into outdoor décor, craft materials, and food items, particularly spreads like jams, which are a signature part of Meghan’s lifestyle line.

The brand also includes sauces, non-alcoholic cocktail mixers, and alcoholic drinks (excluding beer), as well as services tied to online broadcasting, content creation, and customizable digital tools for printable stationery.

As Ever To Grow Independently After Parting Ways With Netflix

Earlier this month, it was reported that As Ever and Netflix were going their separate ways, with representatives for both sides confirming that the brand will continue operating independently.

A spokesperson for As Ever expressed appreciation for the collaboration, noting that the partnership with Netflix supported the brand through its launch and first year.

They noted that the company has experienced meaningful and rapid growth, and As Ever is now ready to stand on its own, with plans for further expansion in the coming months.

Someone close to the project described this period as a major turning point, explaining that “Meghan is building with her team and enjoying the creative fulfillment that comes with creating a brand that’s so close to the life she authentically lives.”

They added: “This year is really about establishing the brand and scaling it.”

In a statement to People Magazine, a Netflix representative said the transition had always been part of the plan.

They emphasized that Meghan’s vision, centered on bringing beauty and simplicity to everyday life, was the driving force behind the creation of As Ever, and that Netflix was pleased to have helped bring it to market.

The spokesperson added that Meghan will now take the brand into its next phase independently, while Netflix looks forward to seeing how it continues to grow and resonate with audiences worldwide.
