Katie Holmes and her new boyfriend, Jason Bard Yarmosky, are taking in New York Fashion Week.
From fashion shows to parties, the couple has been spotted looking loved up at various events around the city, often wearing coordinating outfits.
A source recently told PEOPLE that they're enjoying themselves in the months since they were first seen spending time together.
"They've become close pretty quickly," the source said of Holmes, 47, and Yarmosky, 39, some two months after they were first photographed in East Hampton, N.Y., July 10. "Katie feels very comfortable with him. She's having a lot of fun. They really enjoy spending time together and had an amazing summer."
Yarmosky, a New York City-based artist, and Holmes were first seen holding hands when they attended a screening of Olivia Wilde's The Invite back in July. The pair also stepped out for dinner in Manhattan that same week. More recently, Holmes and Yarmosky made their relationship Instagram official on Sept. 1 and shared photos from a trip they took to Lake Como in Italy on Monday, Sept. 7.

Over more than two decades, Hargitay has had the support of her loving husband, Peter Hermann. Together, they've started a family and cheered each other on through every endeavor. As she held up her two Emmy trophies for a photo, Hermann stood proudly behind her. "God I love him," Hargitay captioned the photo.
At the end of My Mom Jayne, Hermann pulled off the ultimate surprise by buying the Steinway & Sons grand piano that belonged to Hargitay's late mother, Jayne Mansfield. From how they met to when they got married to their family, here's your guide to Mariska Hargitay and Peter Hermann's relationship.
Their love story begins on Law & Order: SVU. Hargitay has played Olivia Benson since the show's start in 1999. Hermann guest-starred in Season 3 of the NBC procedural as defense attorney Trevor Langan.

Helen Mirren would rather turn to artificial intelligence than visit the doctor.
The 81-year-old actress revealed she "totally" avoids doctors while speaking to Entertainment Weekly at the Toronto International Film Festival, where she was promoting her new thriller, A Talent for Murder.
Mirren was joined by costars Alden Ehrenreich and Olivia Cooke, who described themselves as hypochondriacs while discussing how they bonded on set.
Mirren, however, joked that she was the "opposite of hypochondria," adding, "I just completely ignore everything."
When Ehrenreich, 36, asked if that meant she avoided doctors, Mirren replied: "Totally deny. I avoid doctors. Oh no, totally. And it's working."

For almost three decades, fans of Law & Order: SVU have watched Mariska Hargitay bring Captain Olivia Benson to life. As the show continues to enjoy incredible success and a devoted fan base, Mariska has another special connection to SVU: It's where she met her husband of 22 years, Peter Hermann.
To look back at the 2026 Emmy Awards host and the actor's relationship, we need to start at the beginning. The two met in early 2002 on the set of Law & Order: SVU. The show was in its third season, and Peter was brought on to play a defense attorney in a guest-starring role.
During an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show in January 2022, Mariska revealed she thought Peter was one of the best-looking men she'd ever seen.
"[I thought], 'Who is that Clark Gable, Superman guy that I need to marry today?'' she joked at the time. "I was nervous because I heard he was German and I didn't know what to do."
When Peter's time on SVU ended, he surprised Mariska by asking her on a date to a church service.

A Palestinian fashion designer says she nearly closed down her fashion brand until Olivia Rodrigo stepped in.
In a new interview, designer Yasmeen Mjalli told Vogue Arabia that her brand Nöl Collective, founded in 2020, almost exclusively imported natural fibers to create their clothes. She recalled the numerous challenges and hardships of creating new pieces in the West Bank.
Mjalli told the magazine she once ordered a shipment of naturally dyed handwoven wool for the brand's autumn collection, only for it to have been held and ultimately destroyed by Israeli customs. She said she made an attempt to source replacement fabric in Jerusalem, but her efforts were thwarted due to the army closing down roads out of Ramallah.
"I was genuinely like, maybe we should stop, maybe this is our last effort. I was just so tired," Mjalli said.

CANNONSBURG Riley Maynard cornered the market on game-winners.
The ball hadn't seen the back of the net for nearly an hour of match time when the Boyd County freshman took care of any shootout concerns in the second overtime period against Ashland.
Maynard lined up her shot near the corner flag, connected with her left foot, and curved it inside the far post to lift the Lions to a 2-1 win in the 63rd District seeding contest Thursday.
Boyd County coach Olivia Pennington said it's not the first time Maynard found her target on the long-distance shot that offers no angle to the goal.
"It's something that she's done multiple times this season," Pennington said. "Any time we have that shot on the left side, Riley is attempting that shot."

Howard Stern's wife, Beth Stern, is looking on the bright side as the radio host prepares for a major change to his longtime show.
Beth, 54, opened up about her husband's new schedule and HBO Max deal while attending the Alice + Olivia show during New York Fashion Week, according to a Daily Mail report published Thursday, September 10. Howard, 72, is cutting back to one new live Sirius XM show per week, while a video version of his program will stream on HBO Max each Thursday.
"It's actually great for me, because he's now going to start only working one day a week — so I get more Howard at home and he's still connected to the world, so it's a win-win for all of us," Beth said, per the report.

The new arrangement comes amid a shakeup at Sirius XM that saw Andy Cohen take over Stern's Howard 101 channel, the outlet reported. Stern will continue broadcasting his weekly live show on Howard 100 and working primarily from the studio at his Hamptons home.

EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon had gone an entire season without conceding a goal in the run of play. Rutgers needed four minutes and eleven seconds of the second half.
Amanda Thornton scored from the middle of the box off her right foot at 49:11, and that was the match. Rutgers beat Oregon 1-0 on Thursday at Papé Field in front of 673 to open Big Ten play with a win, and it did it while being outshot 20-16, out-cornered 8-1 and outshot on target 10-3. Olivia Bodmer made eleven saves and did not concede. Thornton's goal was the only shot Rutgers put on target in the second half.
Rutgers arrived at 1-1-3 with a week's rest and its first win of the season in the books, a 4-2 win over Princeton at Yurcak Field on Sept. 6 in which the Scarlet Knights surrendered the lead twice and won anyway. Lilia Calvert scored twice in four minutes after the 80th, the first two goals of her college career, on the only two shots she took. Ashley Baran and Sophia Stiles had the others. Three of the four goals came after the 70th minute, the stretch of the game this team could not survive eight days earlier against Providence. For the conference slate, Rutgers was picked 15th of 18 in the Big Ten preseason poll after missing the NCAA tournament last season for the first time since 2011.
Oregon was picked 18th, and arrived at 5-0-1.
The Ducks went unbeaten through nonconference play for only the second time since 1981, opened with their best six-game start since the 2016 team also went 5-0-1, and scored 17 goals, the program's most through six matches in 45 years. They had conceded one, a third-minute penalty at Santa Clara on Aug. 20, and nothing since. Their 0.17 goals-against average led the Big Ten and ranked seventh nationally. Five shutouts in the first six matches is something one other Oregon team has done, in 2011. Dating to last season they were unbeaten in eight (6-0-2). They had outshot opponents 108-49, and they had never conceded a second-half goal.

Nebraska 3-New Mexico 0: 25-12, 25-13, 25-15
Well that was a quick match to start out the Huskers' season at the Bob Devaney Center! Everyone was excited to be back in the Bob tonight to watch some Husker volleyball and they really kept it short and sweet for the fans tonight with a 3-0 sweep.
Former Husker Allie Sczech was on the call, for B1G+, tonight along with 2 others and they had said a couple times how New Mexico was getting into their rhythm after a win against their rival, New Mexico State, earlier this week. The Huskers kind of just squashed whatever confidence they had coming in by shutting them down.
We saw the same lineup we've been seeing since the first match so we should ******* ume this is the starting lineup that DBK is going with this year. Olivia Mauch got the libero jersey once again too. I wonder when, or if, we'll see Laney Choboy as the libero at all this season.
This is meant to be no shade whatsoever towards New Mexico, but the Huskers kind of made them look like a high school team. The first set especially was a hard one for the Lobos. New Mexico just didn't seem ready for what was to come.

Olivia Rodrigo gave Palestinian designer Yasmeen Mjalli a reason to keep going. Mjalli said her fashion brand nearly shut down before Rodrigo's commission. The singer ordered a dress for her Daisy Chain Fields Festival. Mjalli described the opportunity as "divine intervention."
Mjalli founded Nöl Collective in 2020. The Palestinian brand works with women's cooperatives and individual embroiderers. Its designs preserve traditional Palestinian craftsmanship through contemporary clothing. However, operating from the West Bank has created major challenges.
Mjalli said a shipment of handwoven wool was held by Israeli customs. She said authorities eventually destroyed the materials. She then tried sourcing replacement fabric in Jerusalem. However, road closures prevented her from reaching the city.
"I was genuinely like, maybe we should stop, maybe this is our last effort," Mjalli told Vogue Arabia. She said she was "just so tired" after facing repeated obstacles. The situation nearly became the brand's breaking point.
Then Rodrigo commissioned Nöl Collective to create a dress. Mjalli described the commission as "divine intervention." The project gave her a reason to continue despite the challenges.

Joe Burrow has plenty of reasons to smile heading into another NFL season.
But Olivia Ponton showing up around Bengals practice probably doesn't hurt.
Ponton, the model and social-media personality who has been linked to Burrow for nearly two years, was spotted with the quarterback at Bengals training camp in August. The two have also been seen together at the Kentucky Derby and several other events throughout 2026.
Neither Burrow nor Ponton has publicly put a label on their relationship, but at this point, they've certainly become one of the NFL's most interesting rumored couples.
And honestly, they're pretty adorable.

WARSAW — Westview faced a few challenges Saturday, Sept. 5 at the Warsaw Tiger Soccer Complex.
Not only was the heat index at or above 90 degrees for the afternoon match, but the Class 1A No. 1 Warriors were facing a strong Class 3A Tigers team who was coming off a 2-1 loss at 3A No. 2 Homestead. Westview battled for the entire match but ultimately fell, 3-2, dropping its record to 6-2 on the season.
"We knew Warsaw was going to play possession with us in the middle," Westview head coach Drew Ryall said. "(Senior) Olivia (Bontrager), (junior) Makenna (Bender) and (junior) Josie (Ryall) tend to dominate the middle, but we knew Warsaw was going to have their way a little bit more today than other teams we've played.
"We were really pleased with our defensive shape and communication and making it really hard on (the Tigers)."
The Warriors scored first when sophomore goalkeeper Breanna Garrett — making her first career varsity start — sent a long punt that freshman Kierra Roose ended up putting in the net in the 5th minute.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. — Remember the name Lilia Calvert, she's made her arrival, and she's not going anywhere.
Rutgers beat Princeton 4-2 on Sunday at Yurcak Field, and the freshman who gave away the penalty that let the Tigers back into the match in the first half scored twice in four minutes to end it in the second. Both were the first goals of her college career. Both came on the only two shots she took all night. In between, she was pulled off the field twice.
Rutgers arrived at 0-1-3, four matches into a season that has produced a shot profile better than its record and nothing in the win column to show for either. The Scarlet Knights had led Providence by two with half an hour left eight days earlier and gave the lead back inside 69 seconds. Before that came two scoreless road draws and an opening loss at Tennessee. This was the second home match Rutgers has actually played this fall, with the Boston College opener still unscheduled after the weather took it.
Princeton came in at 2-3-0 and with considerably more to lose. The Tigers were picked first in the Ivy League preseason poll after winning a second straight Ivy **** le in 2025, opened the season 3-0 over Loyola (Md.), and were playing their second match in four days following a trip to Columbus to face No. 8 Ohio State. Sean Driscoll, in his 12th season, had platooned Cecilia Cerone and Sydney Romano in goal through the nonconference schedule and gotten two shutouts out of the arrangement. Cerone played all 90 on Sunday and conceded four.

BATON ROUGE, LA – The Lane Kiffin era started with fireworks. Literally.
As LSU came out of the tunnel shortly before kickoff of its game against Clemson, LSU shot off purple and gold fireworks inside the stadium to hard launch to Kiffin's debut with the Tigers.
Hey, better than saving up the fireworks for display after a loss, like Rutgers did.
Earlier in the day, Kiffin, ever the showman, entered the stadium during the Tiger Walk wearing a double breasted suit. He was accompanied by comedian Theo Von and swimsuit model Olivia Dunne, a former LSU gymnast.
The start of the Clemson-LSU game was delayed two hours because of lightning and heavy rain. The Kiffin era officially kicked off at 8:40 p.m. local time, with smoke from the pregame pyrotechnics display hovering in the air at Tiger Stadium.

Morgan Riddle, ex-girlfriend of American tennis star Taylor Fritz, has reportedly struggled to accept his new relationship with Olivia Jade following their recent breakup. Amid Fritz's US Open run, a source claims Riddle feels he "moved on very quickly" after their near six-year relationship.
According to Page Six's Lanae Brody, while Riddle maintains a public front of having completely moved on, Fritz's "quick pivot" to a new relationship under a month post-split has proven difficult for her to observe.
"She acts like him dating Olivia doesn't bother her, but it does," a source told Page Six. "In her eyes, he moved on very quickly."
Fritz and Riddle dated for nearly six years, with reports suggesting they started their relationship in June 2020 and split up in April 2026.
Brody added that a major driver behind the split was Riddle's reluctance to relocate full-time to California and take on a stepmother role for Fritz's nine-year-old son.

#riddle

Taylor Fritz and Morgan Riddle's nearly six-year relationship ended in April, and new reporting says the split may have come down to two practical questions: what role Riddle wanted in Fritz's family life and where she wanted to build her own future.
Anonymous sources told Page Six that Riddle was not ready to take on a stepmother role to Fritz's 9-year-old son and did not want to settle full time in California. The sources said her career was pulling her toward New York, where she moved this spring.
Neither Fritz nor Riddle has publicly confirmed those specific reasons. Riddle has spoken more broadly about why she left, saying in June that she had spent roughly a year and a half feeling as though the life she was living no longer felt like her own. She also told ELLE that she and Fritz were "on good terms."
Fritz has since been linked to Olivia Jade Giannulli. Page Six's sources have described the relationship as casual and not exclusive, while neither Fritz nor Giannulli has publicly defined it. Riddle, for her part, has not publicly commented on Giannulli.
Page Six's September 4 report gives the most specific account yet of what may have separated Fritz and Riddle. According to the outlet's sources, Riddle was not prepared to become a stepmother and wanted to pursue her career in New York rather than establish a full-time life in California.

On August 26, Movado Group (NYSE:MOV) reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 results that pushed adjusted earnings per share to $0.54 from $0.23 a year earlier, while net sales climbed 4.9% to $169.8 million. The jewelry and watch company also confirmed it will stop issuing annual financial guidance going forward, choosing instead to focus commentary on near-term trends. For a business built on Swiss craftsmanship and a stable of licensed fashion brands, the quarter marked a fifth straight period of positive momentum, and it came with a few surprises tucked inside the numbers.
Some of the headline strength came from a one-time source: $3.2 million in IEEPA duty refunds tied to tariffs paid between February 2025 and May 2026, which lifted GAAP gross margin to 59.4% from 54.1%. But strip that out and adjusted gross margin still rose 340 basis points to 57.5%, driven by favorable channel and product mix, strategic pricing, and less discounting. Growth was broad rather than concentrated in one line item. US net sales rose 4.9%, international sales rose 4.9% as well (4.1% in constant currency), and Latin America and India posted particularly strong results.
Movado.com sales jumped 8%, and Olivia Burton sales grew 23%, powered by small-shaped watches focused on the U.K. and US markets. The company also flagged a resurgence in traditional watch interest among younger buyers, pointing to the Baby Face mini strap watch, which sold out more than 400 units on movado.com in under a month. Looking ahead, Movado is expanding its Tapestry partnership to launch Kate Spade watches starting next fiscal year. The balance sheet backs up the momentum, with $211.6 million in cash, no debt, and $16.6 million already returned to shareholders through dividends this year.
Not every piece of this quarter travels into the second half. Management was explicit that the favorable mix of lower duty rate inventory that padded margins is temporary and is not expected to continue, and second-half gross margin guidance of 55% to 56% reflects that normalization. Sallie DeMarsilis also noted that gross margin gains were partially offset by higher shipping costs tied to fuel surcharges and rising e-commerce volume.
Geographically, the Middle East remains a soft spot, with Efraim Grinberg citing tourism-related headwinds in a region still affected by regional conflict. Operating expenses rose to $85.7 million from $80.6 million, largely on higher performance-based compensation and marketing spend. There is also a smaller but notable item: a $0.2 million pretax charge tied to a misconduct investigation within a Dubai-based Swiss subsidiary branch. And while Movado expects to recover another $6.8 million in IEEPA duties, it has chosen not to recognize that gain until the cash actually arrives, a reminder that not all of this quarter's tailwind is guaranteed to repeat.
