Dear Gossips,

It’s Big G’s first birthday! His parents have urged the public to refrain from sending gifts, not only because that child has everything he could possible want, but also because that child only wants things he can crush. Like butterflies.

More images have been released from Big G’s visit to the butterfly exhibit, his parents gifting us with two more shots of the Bruiser Prince. As you can see, he’s fascinated by them, and at one point, reaches out to touch one on his father’s hand. That poor butterfly must have been like F-ck Me, how did I get chosen to hang out with the Gregor Clegane of the Windsor line?

And then there’s Blake Lively who launched Preserve late yesterday, reportedly two days ahead of schedule, clearly not intimidated by the royal milestone. I have some thoughts on Preserve from a gossip perspective. And Maria will be analysing it from the lifestyle business side with the experience she has as Managing Editor of Vitamin Daily.

It’s time for the Nerd Herd too. Comic-Con begins this week. Sarah’s preview will be post today.

Yours in gossip,

Lainey
