Netflix is consciously uncoupling with As ever, Meghan Markle’s lifestyle brand. The statement Netflix released is effusive, and As ever also released a statement saying they are ready to stand on their own. Page Six hinted at it last week with no concrete details but interestingly, it was The Sun who got the scoop. There’s still the Archewell first look deal but it seems unlikely that With Love, Meghan will return and Netflix didn’t pick up Cookie Queens, co-produced by Archewell. Netflix was taking a chance getting into consumables (which is volatile and logistically tricky) but it’s only been a year.

The Sun positions it as Meghan cutting ties because Netflix was risk-averse and holding As ever back.  I don’t know if I fully buy that because Netflix is gearing down on Meghan and Harry, so it might be more about priorities than risk.

John Slattery, interviewed by Richard E. Grant, is a must because nobody plays a rake like John but there’s a lot going on underneath his charm. He has so much experience playing men who are past their prime (which is how he describes it) and he talks about falling in love with Rachel Weisz in the makeup trailer (relatable).

I guess some tabloids are reporting Jessica Alba and Joe Burrows (who plays sports) are dating because they are sitting next to each other. Damn we are going back to the early aughts because how does sitting next to someone in a public place mean you are dating?

This is not from Hayden Christensen’s account, it’s a fan account but I’ve never seen these photos of him and Natalie Portman in their Star Wars era. I guess there’s a “which couple ruled the early 2000s fandoms” debate happening and Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst are in the lead. Are Hayden and Natalie both single right now? Ya I’m looking for Gossip Genie trouble.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s daughter Sunday Rose is on the cover of Elle Australia and also walked in the massive Dior show and has appeared in a Miu Miu campaign, as well as NYFW for Calvin Klein. All very high-profile clients, with her high-profile pedigree. I scrolled through her Instagram and last summer Nylon called her an It Girl. Be real with me, did I miss a whole entire It Girl or did Nylon jump the gun a bit?
