The OnlyFans creator wore a stunning pink swimsuit in her new photo carousel, which left fans amazed. The top was molded and structured with thin shoulder straps and a clean, rounded cup shape. Moreover, the bottom was cut high on the hip in a classic thong shape.
Just like the outfit, Dee kept the accessories simple. She wore a short, delicate necklace and paired it with small stud earrings. While the internet personality’s top highlighted her toned midriff, she even sported a tiny metallic belly button piercing and bright red nail paint.
Additionally, Sophie Dee kept her hair loose with natural waves that caught the breeze. Meanwhile, her makeup gave her a sun-kissed look, with light bronzer, soft pink lips, and defined brows.

Season 10 of Below Deck Mediterranean is not finding Joe Bradley well. Yes, this man is a hard worker who (typically) handles his daily duties. However, many fans are starting to call Joe out for his careless off-the-clock storylines.
When Joe first appeared as a deckhand in Season 9, his smouldering glances and thick accent caught the eyes of two gorgeous stews. As this season progressed, fans watched the rise and eventual fall of this messy love triangle, also known as one of Joe’s main storylines. Then, during his second run on Below Deck Med, Joe locked himself into yet another sticky situation. However, this complicated romantic entanglement has brought on more heat than his first.
As the most recent episode proved, Joe is starting to show remorse for his actions. But, is it too late to make things right with the audiences of Season 10?
Below Deck Mediterranean Season 10 has seen Joe Bradley cheat on Victoria SanJuan with Kizzi Kitchener

When Season 10 debuted, Kizzi Kitchener liked what she saw. But so did Victoria SanJuan, whom Joe seemed to gravitate towards. His feelings for V went deep, or so he claimed. And that statement alone made many Season 9 fans feel better at ease watching their scenes, because, for V, many are already ride-or-die fans.
One year before V filmed this series, her boyfriend, Bon, tragically drowned. To date, her emotions remain scattered, as expected. So, Joe has done his best to remind V that he isn’t the greatest with commitment. But then, something shifted, and Joe found himself emotionally promising V that she was the only girl for him, and he even wanted to take her home to meet his beloved mum.
Yet, when a sick V took a quick break from filming during the anniversary of Bon’s passing, Joe saw her off the yacht. But then, only a handful of beats later, he brought Kizzi upstairs, purposefully moving a camera to hide the fact that he was about to cheat on V.
Cue round one of the fans calling for his eyebrows on Reddit. As one upvoted comment states, “his annoying victim act kills me when he’s the perpetrator of his own demise.” Likewise, he and Kizzi are “both sh*tty in their own way. But trying to hide it from the cameras is even shadier to me.”
Joe shamed Gael Cameron for cheating during Below Deck Med Season 9

When V temporarily stepped away, Gael Cameron arrived to take over her position. As fans recall, Gael clocked Joe throughout Season 9. Therefore, it made sense when Joe revealed that he was less than thrilled about her return to filming in Season 10.
Not helping matters, Joe’s BFF during filming, Nathan Gallagher, has realized what a gem Gael truly is. Nathan sees a future with Gael, which he will eventually get, since we already know they have a son together, all thanks to their reunion this season. However, watching Nathan and Gael rekindling their Season 9 boatmance has seemingly triggered something in Joe.
To quickly backtrack, at the start of Season 9, Gael admitted that she had a boyfriend. However, her feelings for Nathan were undeniably strong. Nathan felt the same, and they kissed. Then, Gael ended things with her man at home and fell all the more for Nathan.
But when Gael returned in Season 10 Episode 12, Joe took to his confessional. Here, he shook his head, saying, “Once a cheat, always a cheat.” While many fans likely started rolling their eyes clear outside of their skulls, production chimed in, ever the unsung hero of this series. As this lovely human wondered, how has Gael behaved any differently than Joe?
His brain briefly short-circuited before answering, “Right, but I’m single.” Cue another round of angry fans on Reddit. “If a man I am intimate with and spending time with is inviting me to his home to meet his mother, I sure as sh*t don’t think we are doing this as two single individuals,” one Redditor stressed. Earning even more upvotes, another noted that Joe’s “absolute lack of awareness is psychotic.”
Joe’s tears in confessional surprised fans, but is it too late?

Last night, Episode 14 aired. This new episode brought V back to the yacht, rested and “excited to” hear about everything she’d missed. Helping V honor Bon, alongside herself, since her return also fell on her birthday, Aesha Scott planned a lovely birthday celebration for V. After, the crew gathered outside, gently placing flowers into the ocean to honor Bon’s life with V.
As V recalled Bon, their love, and her current state of grief, her emotional words struck a rarely plucked heartstring within Joe. So, as the yachties placed their flowers into the icy, dark waters below, Joe wept. He also quietly asked himself, “What the f*ck am I?”
As the credits started to roll, V further honored Bon with her words, including “all the parts of him” that he left inside her heart. Then, the camera cuts to Joe. He has fled the scene, heading for a private room where he can freely weep. His exit left us with yet another TO BE CONTINUED sign on our screens.
Finally, fans are seeing signs of self-awareness emerging in Joe. But, is it too late to change the tides with his disappointed sea of fans? On Reddit, this answer now resembles a maybe.
As one fan noted, which many agreed with, “I am happy to see Joe feeling the weight of his actions (him crying). [However], He has shown that he really doesn’t seem to care that he made out with Kizzy despite V, but the guilt he is showing feels cathartic for me.” Overall, they ended, “V deserves better.”
Ian Ziering is facing allegations of battery and assault. The actor, best known for his role in Beverly Hills, 90210, was involved in a traffic altercation in 2023. The other party was initially arrested following the incident. But that person is now claiming that Ian was actually the aggressor – and his hit him with a civil complaint.
The accusations stem from an incident from December 31, 2023. According to documents seen by People, Ian is facing allegations of battery, assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, malicious prosecution, negligence and negligent infliction of emotional distress.
According to plaintiff Jacob Hernandez, he and his pal were riding motorbikes through a traffic jam in LA on NYE. They apparently stopped in front of Ian’s car, which led him to suddenly exit and begin yelling at them. The complaint claims that Ian then shoved Jacob, causing him and his bike to fall.
The doc says that “melee occurred between [Ian] and multiple individuals who came to the aid of [Jacob].” Part of the incident was apparently caught on video. It also claims that the 90210 actor used his celebrity status to change the narrative surrounding the altercation, making him the victim.
Jacob was initially arrested following the incident, which he claims was because Ian provided “misleading information” to officers. He was released on a $50,000 bail, and was eventually told the case wouldn’t be taken further.
Now, Jacob claims that Ian’s alleged misinformation caused him to suffer “significant mental health issues,” including severe anxiety, regular panic attacks and paranoia. He is pursuing both compensatory and punitive damages and has requested a jury trial.
The actor and Apprentice alum refers to himself as an entrepreneur these days, with his last acting credit dating back to 2023, per IMDB.

Not ready to let it slide, Speed suggested a rematch, but this time as a foot race. “If we race, you lose. You know that, right?” he joked. The local agreed, confident he couldn’t outrun Speed. In the sprint that followed, Speed took back the bragging rights. Both laughed, complimenting each other. “Look at your shoulders! Good game,” the local said.
Angola is just the kickoff for Speed’s 20-country tour across Africa, backed by Expedia. He hasn’t revealed every stop yet, but teasers hint at Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. The tour will be full of athletic challenges, cultural adventures, and all kinds of erratic things Speed is known for.
Fans loved the Angola livestream and reacted with plenty of laughs and praise. Many joked about the local competitor’s strength, while others admired the playful rivalry. One fan said, “They’re all so nice, this is one of my favorite stream clips ever,” while another teased, “His name’s Speed, not strength, duh.”

Alabama Barker comments on dad Travis’ gift
Travis Barker’s daughter, who celebrated her 20th birthday on Christmas Eve, kicked off her nearly nine-minute video by expressing immense gratitude to her followers. “I am beyond blessed, grateful, and thankful. I’m everything, and I’m so happy,” she said before joking, “Get ready, sit down, grab your popcorn.” What followed was a lavish display of high-end fashion and jewelry from a star-studded list of givers, prominently featuring her famous father.
Midway through the haul, Alabama Barker shared that she splurged a lot on lingerie from Agent Provocateur. Holding up two pink boxes from the brand, she explained how the gifts were chosen. “Okay, so, my dad went a little crazy at Agent Provocateur,” she said. “Kourtney picked out most of it, and then the girl knows me there, so she, like, gave recommendations of what I like.”
Alabama went on to show several pieces from the store, including four corsets, bras, underwear, and multiple sleepwear items. She particularly admired a silky cheetah-print slip, quipping, “This cheetah slip to go to sleep in is so beautiful.”
The lingerie was part of a much larger collection of luxury gifts from across her family. Alabama, who is connected to the Kardashian-Jenner family through her stepmother, Kourtney Kardashian, received multiple designer items throughout the haul.

Stephen Colbert said he would immediately “resign” if he could switch bodies with President Donald Trump for a day, commenting on a live appearance at Slate’s Political Gabfest 20th anniversary show on December 18.
Stephen Colbert talks about what he’d do if he was Donald Trump
During the event, CBS News’ John Dickerson asked Colbert who he would choose if he could inhabit another person’s body for 24 hours. Colbert replied that he would “slip inside the skin of our president,” calling it a predictable answer.
Explaining his reasoning, Colbert said that if he were Trump, “I would resign.” He went on to outline a scenario in which the resignation would come without controversy. “No scandal, no confession, no Sturm und Drang,” Colbert said. “Just go, ‘It’s been great. I’m the best, ever. I’m gonna go out on top. I’ve done everything. I’m just gonna go.’ That’s it. It can be a glorious ending, just end it.”
Colbert later joked about whether the body swap would be mutual, asking if Trump would take over his body for the same period. “I have a harrowing follow-up question: Is he taking over my body for 24 hours?” he said, adding that he would warn his wife accordingly. “Darling, go see your sister for a while.”
Furthermore, Colbert also addressed frequent questions about a potential presidential run. He dismissed the idea, saying, “Absolutely, I should not run for president,” before joking that he would frame any decision in the language of a politician once his show ends in May.
The comments are the latest addition to Stephen Colbert’s ongoing public clashes with Donald Trump. The president recently criticized the talk show host on Truth Social, calling him a “pathetic trainwreck with no talent” and attacking his ratings. It came amid increased attention on Colbert after he announced in July that The Late Show would end in May 2026 after 10 seasons.

Dua Lipa has once again set social media buzzing after sharing a close-up photo that clearly showcases a striking ring on her finger. The image, originally posted on her Instagram account, features an intimate moment where the ring sits front and centre, making it impossible to overlook.
Dua Lipa’s engagement ring from Callum Turner costs more than $33K
According to The Sun, Dua Lipa’s ring is believed to be an engagement ring gifted by Callum Turner. Its estimated value exceeds $33,000 (or £25,000). While the couple has not publicly commented on the jewelry or its significance, the publication reports that the piece aligns with luxury engagement rings in that price bracket.
In the photo, the ring appears prominently near Turner’s face as he leans in to kiss Lipa on the cheek. The intimate framing places the jewelry front and center, while also capturing a candid moment between the couple. Lipa looks visibly joyful in the close-up, smiling widely as Turner presses a kiss against her cheek, adding warmth and emotion to the image.
The couple has kept their relationship largely private, though they have been linked publicly over the past year. As a result, even subtle details like the appearance of a ring have generated widespread discussion. The reported cost of the piece further fueled online conversation, with many noting its classic yet bold design.
The carousel didn’t stop at the intimate close-up moment. Alongside the affectionate snap, Lipa also shared a series of other highlight images. These captured different chapters of her recent months. Several photos featured moments from her worldwide, sold-out Radical Optimism stadium tour, offering fans a glimpse into life on the road.
Taken together, the post blends romance and career highlights into a single snapshot of Lipa’s life right now. While the ring has naturally sparked speculation, the overall carousel feels less like an announcement and more like a personal recap. It balanced an affectionate moment with Turner alongside other milestones.

It seems Ben Affleck‘s ex-wife is stepping into the new year focused on herself, her career, and her children, with no new romance reportedly on the horizon. Almost a year after her divorce from Affleck was finalized, sources claim Jennifer Lopez is single.
Jennifer Lopez isn’t dating anyone after Ben Affleck split, sources suggest
A source has told People that Jennifer Lopez is not seeing anyone romantically and remains focused on work and raising her children. “It’s all about work and the kids for her,” the source claimed, adding that Lopez “seems happy and content.”
The singer shares twins, Maximilian and Emme, 17, with her former husband, Marc Anthony. According to the source, family life and professional commitments are her top priorities as she moves forward.
Lopez herself talked about embracing single life in October 2024. “Now I’m excited, when you say you’re just going to be on your own,” she told Interview magazine. “Yes, I’m not looking for anybody, because everything that I’ve done over the past 25, 30 years, being in these different challenging situations, what can I f***ing do when it’s just me flying on my own … what if I’m just free?” she added.
Furthermore, a few months ago, without referencing specific past relationships, Ben Affleck’s ex-wife shared a personal takeaway from her experiences on SiriusXM. She said, “What I learned, it’s not that I’m not lovable. It’s that they’re not capable.”
Now, the latest update follows the finalization of Jennifer Lopez’s divorce from Ben Affleck in January 2025. Court documents listed April 26, 2024, as the couple’s separation date. The filing in August 2025 came two years after their second wedding ceremony in Georgia, which took place a month after an intimate Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022.
Lopez and Affleck’s recent relationship was their second time around with each other. They were previously engaged in the early 2000s before ending their first engagement in 2004. The duo then rekindled their romance in 2021, giving hope to Bennifer fans. However, they eventually parted ways again in 2024.

Lily Collins celebrated “Emily in Paris” occupying the top spot on Netflix for one week in a very fashionable way. She took to Instagram on December 28 to share one of her “favorite” looks from the hit rom-com series. The look, titled “Lady in red,” featured Collins dressed in a stunning all-red ensemble.
Lily Collins shares photos of her ‘favorite’ all-red fit from ‘Emily in Paris’
Season 5 of “Emily in Paris” premiered on Netflix on December 18 with all ten episodes. The show has now spent a week in the top spot on the platform. To celebrate this major milestone, Lily Collins shared an Instagram post with the caption, “Lady in red — one of my favorite looks. Thank you for making @emilyinparis #1 on @netflix for a whole week! We’re feeling the love and couldn’t do this without you…”
In the photos, Collins paired a red monogram mesh flock t-shirt with matching leggings from Marine Serre. The sheer t-shirt had long sleeves and a mock neck. She layered the ensemble with a red moire bubble minidress from the designer’s 2024 Fall/Winter collection. The minidress added texture to the outfit.
The “Love, Rosie” actor also gave a close look at her iconic red heels. Designed by British-American designer Paul Andrew, the vibrant red shoes had plexiglass heels. She also carried the Alhambra bag from MESH-MESH. According to the Egyptian brand’s official site, the transparent digitally sculpted bag’s design was inspired by the architectural details of the Red Palace in Granada, Spain.
Paul Andrew, who designed the shoes, commented on Collins’ post. He wrote, “You look amazing in those shoes. Hope you enjoyed wearing them as much as I enjoyed seeing you wear them.” Fans also jumped into the comments section to compliment her outfit. One individual said, “Wow, such beautiful details!” Some other fans wrote, “Love the red! Plus the shoes are so fun,” “This outfit is definitely my fave,” and “So cute! I loved this look.”
Brooks Nader’s ex-husband, advertising executive Billy Haire, is officially engaged to Southern Charm alum Naomie Olindo. The couple shared the news with photos from a Charleston boardwalk, featuring their two dogs in the frame. Olindo captioned the post, “The luckiest girl in the whole wide world.”
This development follows Haire’s 2024 divorce from the Sports Illustrated model. Fans were quick to connect the timelines, flooding the comments to celebrate the update.
Brooks Nader’s ex Billy Haire engaged to girlfriend Naomie Olindo
As per The Independent and Olindo’s Instagram, Billy Haire and Naomi Olindo’s engagement announcements arrived with cast support. Madison LeCroy posted, “Can’t wait to celebrate,” while Leva Bonaparte added, “I’m so happy for yall.” Earlier, Olindo soft-launched the relationship in June by including Haire in a photo roundup. Therefore, the engagement reads as a steady step rather than a surprise fling.
Contextually, Nader and Haire married in 2019 and finalized their split last year. The outlet noted the breakup was described as “amicable.” A source quoted in the report said, “She’s a busy person and career-wise she’s on top of the world.” The same source added, “All relationships are hard and some can be salvaged, some can’t. They’re both truly amazing people. They have just decided to go their separate ways.”
Meanwhile, Olindo previously dated Craig Conover from 2015 to 2017 on the Bravo series. He later reacted to her new romance on “Watch What Happens Live“, saying friends told him Haire “is great,” and that she is “in really good hands.” That public blessing helped cool any leftover reality TV chatter.
Additionally, Nader briefly dated her “Dancing with the Stars” partner, Gleb Savchenko, after the divorce. However, they split in spring 2025 and have since moved on. As a result, the Brooks Nader’s ex-husband’s storyline stays separate from her current life and projects.
Bottom line, Billy Haire and Naomie Olindo’s engagement confirms a new chapter for both. The reality alum and the ad exec chose a quiet outdoor proposal, a simple photo drop, and a comment wall full of well-wishers.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly “essentially shuttered Archewell” following James Holt’s resignation from his post as chief of their Archewell foundation. Amid this, reports suggest that there could be significant uncertainty surrounding their production business, as more employees may leave if there is no renewal of Markle’s show, “With Love, Meghan.”
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle risk losing more staff members, per source
As reported by Page Six, James Holt, the chief of the charity organization Archewell Philanthropies, has stepped down from his role. He has been associated with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s charity for a long time now. As per a source, “They’ve essentially shuttered Archewell,” which means that the brand could crumble, especially if more staffers leave.
Meanwhile, Holt gave a statement to PEOPLE, sharing his experience with the Archewell Foundation. He said, “After five incredible years in Los Angeles, it’s time for my family to return to London.” He continued, “When I pass the baton to the team leading Archewell Philanthropies in the coming months, I’ll do so with immense pride and optimism for what lies ahead.”
Talking about his experience with the Sussexes, he said, “I’ll miss my colleagues deeply, and I’m grateful to Harry and Meghan for everything they’ve done — for me, and for the countless people we’ve worked to support.”
While Holt was full of praise for Harry and Markle, the royal couple also applauded his “stellar support,” which he offered for nearly a decade. Meanwhile, a representative for Harry and Markle shared that, while Holt has stepped down as chief of Archewell Philanthropies, he will continue to “remain a senior philanthropic advisor for the couple and Archewell Philanthropies, supporting their humanitarian trips overseas in 2026.”
However, the worry might still not be over for the Sussexes, as it has been reported that their production business doesn’t have many employees, with more senior staffers leaving. Plus, if Markle’s show, “With Love, Meghan,” isn’t renewed, they may lose even more employees, putting a strain on their business.
LeBron James, widely considered one of the greatest NBA players of all time, has faced backlash after he was seen making a motion that appeared to be a golf swing during the national anthem before his team’s Christmas Day game. The video has received many negative comments on TikTok, with many users finding it disrespectful.
LeBron James faces backlash for his behaviour
During the national anthem before the Los Angeles Lakers’ game against the Houston Rockets on Christmas Day, the ESPN cameras caught LeBron James seemingly practicing a golf swing. He was swaying back and forth as he was lined up with his teammates for “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
Some fans found the 41-year-old’s gesture funny, but most did not. Instead, there was a wave of backlash for what fans considered a disrespect to the national anthem.
A video, which has since gone viral on TikTok, accumulated many such comments. “Disrespecting the flag in the country that made him a millionaire,” one fan wrote. Another wrote, “Worst thing that happen to Lakers.” Meanwhile, another wrote, “Show some respect please.” Yet another user added, “Jordan would never!! Shows who truly is the GOAT.”
Meanwhile, some users tried to defend the move, claiming it was harmless. “Bro, are y’all ok? He’s just warming up to play a 48+ minute high intensity basketball game. That doesn’t show disrespect. Everyone does it,” one user wrote in defense. However, most fans seem agitated by it, anyhow. LeBron did not address the controversy directly yet.
The Rockets went on to win the game 119-96. Recently, the NBA star has picked up golf as a new hobby. This comes as he nears the end of his legendary basketball career. James is the NBA’s all-time leading scorer and has won four NBA championships from 10 NBA Finals appearances.

Rosalia pairs her cropped jacket and pants with a thong belt in photos
For this gasp-worthy look, Rosalia chose to serve a portion of laid-back luxe with a unique edge. She opted for a cropped gray full-sleeved jacket with an elasticated attachment on the waist and the hems of her sleeves. The pop icon proved this with floor-length black pants with a low-waisted style that looked amazing on the diva.
However, the star of the show was her unique gray and white belt, worn almost under the pants, which looked like a thong. She also kept her accessories minimal yet impactful. This is exactly why Rosalia had fans rushing right to the Instagram post and showering her with love. While one of them commented, “DAAAAMN,” the other exclaimed, “You look soo effortlessly cool Rosi! Always! Amazing!”
