Apple Martin grew up surrounded by Hollywood royalty with mom Gwyneth Paltrow, dad Chris Martin, and grandmother Blythe Danner. But when it comes to her love life, her mother reportedly wanted something very different for her.
The 22-year-old aspiring actress, who is making her acting debut in Nancy Meyers' upcoming film Paris Paramount, has been dating fellow Vanderbilt University grad Moshe Levi for over a year. He's from a "good family that wants to make a difference in the world," according to a Paltrow insider, per the Daily Mail.

Monday, August 31, should have been an especially joyful date for Princess Märtha Louise of Norway and Durek Verrett as they marked their second wedding anniversary.

Miss Michigan USA Amber Uhler began her pageant journey nearly five years ago, when she set her goal to compete in a beauty pageant
Uhler, at the time, had reservations about the goal, as she weighed nearly 300 lbs. at the time
However, speaking with PEOPLE, she opens up about the moment she realized she wanted to prioritize her health and how her pageant dreams helped her achieve that goal
Five years ago, Amber Uhler set what, back then, seemed like an "impossible" goal.
At the time, Uhler, a mom to three, weighed 300 lbs. She tells PEOPLE of attending a doctor's appointment, where she was told, "You're morbidly obese, you're pre-diabetic, you're on a path to an early grave, and you're probably not going to live to see your kids graduate high school."
For Uhler, that appointment set in motion what she calls the "wakeup call" she "needed."
That same weekend, Uhler opens up about the moment she jumped into a foam pit at a trampoline park while playing with her children. "I got stuck, and ****** ody could get me out," she says. "Three big, beefy muscle men formed a human chain to try to pull me out, and even they couldn't do it, and they thought they were going to have to call the fire department. I've never been so humiliated in my life."

Meghan Markle reportedly kept one crucial condition before her husband, Prince Harry, amid their reported UK return. As per new claims, the former actress only agreed to return to the UK for a "six-month test run." This tidbit of news has surfaced as multiple media outlets have reported that the Sussexes will be shifting back to the UK by the end of the month. Previously, the couple stepped down from their role as working royals in January 2020 and relocated to the U.S.
Sources attached to Rob Shuter revealed that Meghan Markle reportedly agreed to her husband Prince Harry's return to the UK on one condition. The Suits star only agreed to return to the UK for a "six-month test run." Not only that, the couple will keep their Montecito and Portugal homes and live in non-royal accommodation in the UK.
Markle still sees California as their permanent home and reportedly does not view this move as a permanent shift. The former actress is reportedly not entirely comfortable with the UK move as she does not have a strong support system in the country. Markle has spent her life in the U.S. and wants to keep that possibility open. Insiders dished to Rob Shuter: "Meghan is agreeing to try it, but she isn't moving back to Britain. Six months is the test. She wants an exit strategy."
As per sources, the Sussexes are trying to navigate this idea because Harry's heart lies in Britain, his home country. The Duke of Sussex is reportedly keen to reconnect with his ageing father, King Charles, and his older brother Prince William while spending more time near the royal family. Markle, on the other hand, is reportedly not too interested in mending ties with her husband's side of the family.
Another source dished: "Eventually, Harry may have to choose between his wife's happiness and his country. That is the nightmare scenario ****** ody wants to talk about." Markle's mother Doria Ragland is reportedly heartbroken by the prospect that her daughter is moving to the UK. Moreover, as per Rob Shuter, this may put the Sussexes' marriage through a test.

Hayden Panettiere's death this week, just five days before her 37th birthday, marks the latest tragic end for a child star. In recent months, Panettiere had become more transparent about the trauma, including **** ual exploitation, she endured as a young actress. The timing of her death is tragic both in light of her age and how recently she appeared to have been winning her fight against addiction. Her efforts to reclaim her autonomy should be acknowledged for what she overcame — and for what fame does to child stars.
Panettiere began appearing in commercials at just 11 months old; by age 5, she'd been in 50. Her breakout role came at age 10, playing a coach's spirited daughter in "Remember the **** ans." Her multiseason portrayals of an indestructible cheerleader on the television series "Heroes" and a troubled country music star on ABC's "Nashville" made her a cultural fixture to millennials.
For decades, the autonomy, safety and happiness of child stars were not a priority for insatiable audiences nor the Hollywood industrial complex. If Panettiere's accounts are any guide, they still aren't.
Off set, however, Panettiere struggled at basically every turn: with an onerous mother, from whom Panettiere was estranged for much of her adult life; drug addiction; alcoholism; depression; and multiple rehab stints. She had relationships with men 10 or more years older than her. She was plied with pills at 15, she revealed this year. Her child custody battle was just one of many traumas dissected in tabloid headlines.
This spring, Panettiere published a memoir, "This Is Me: A Reckoning," that is equal parts appalling and utterly sympathy-inducing. Panettiere bared all, describing her "shortcomings as a mother," her refusal to "blame" anyone else and her grief "for all the hours lost to addiction." The media campaign for the book pulled no punches. Panettiere gave audiences the one thing she refused to further compromise: truth.

Kim Kardashian well and truly is the boss in her relationship with boyfriend Lewis Hamilton, a source tells Star.
According to a source, the reality TV star, 45, has the Formula One driver, 41, running around nonstop, catering to her every whim.
"All Kim has to do is mention that she wants something and Lewis makes it happen, whether that means getting it for her himself or having it sent to her," reveals the source. "He's in total puppy dog mode."
On Wednesday, August 5, Deux Moi published photos on Instagram of Hamilton appearing to bring his girlfriend food on the Los Angeles set of a photoshoot.
"It has a lot of people pretty shocked because this is not his style at all," the source admits. "Usually he's very aloof with the women, he mostly acts like he can take it or leave it, but with Kim, it's different. He's completely under her spell."

Jennifer Aniston's signature style is built on timeless wardrobe staples like white tees, relaxed denim, maxi dresses, and sleek black gowns that always feel polished yet effortless.
The actress relies on simple styling formulas—think wedges, pendant necklaces, aviator sunglasses, and neutral accessories—to make minimalist outfits feel elevated and endlessly wearable.
From tailored **** on-downs to cargo pants and jumpsuits, Aniston proves that repeating versatile basics and refining your personal uniform is the key to mastering quiet luxury style.
There are A-listers with trend-forward closets, and then there are celebrities who quietly define an entire approach to getting dressed. Jennifer Aniston has long fallen into the latter category. Across decades of red carpets, paparazzi shots, and off-duty outings, the actress has built a wardrobe rooted in simplicity, consistency, and fine-tuned minmalism. While today's sartorial tastemakers often swing between maximalism and fleeting trend cycles, Aniston's fashion philosophy has remained remarkably steady: sleek tailoring, effortless denim, timeless black dresses, and elevated basics that never feel overdone.
Part of what makes her style so enduring is its wearability. Whether she's stepping onto an awards-show carpet in a formal gown or grabbing coffee in relaxed jeans and a white tank, there's always an ease to her outfits that feels polished without being unattainable. And over the years, she's developed a handful of signature styling formulas she returns to again and again—proof that personal style is less about constantly reinventing yourself and more about refining what already works.

New York Times reporter and best-selling author Jonathan Swan inadvertently dropped an f-bomb while speaking about Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump, the recently released book he wrote with his co-author Maggie Haberman at a Quaker school in Washington, D.C. this week.
Swan and Haberman addressed an audience at Sidwell Friends School on behalf of the legendary D.C. bookstore, Politics and Prose.
The moderator, Tim Alberta with The Atlantic, asked the authors about the book's dark humor.
"I'm wondering if that was intentional or if it was cathartic, or if it was needed for the two of you. Because one of the questions that I saw that was submitted to us is, 'How did the two of you keep your sanity in this process?'" he wondered.
"Well, in order to keep sanity, you have to have it in the first place," Swan said to audience laughter. "And I'm not even being glib. Like, we're not exactly stable people. We both work like maniacs. You know us. We have, you know, killed ourselves for many, many years reporting on this. So, I would just, you know, say that that didn't exist as a condition, a precondition for this book. Maybe it's a precondition to be in our state to be able to do this kind of reporting."

Rod Stewart's wife Penny Lancaster is worried, reveals a source.
As Examiner previously reported, the "Forever Young" singer, 81, was forced to use an oxygen tank mid-concert in West Valley City, Utah on Friday, June 19, after nearly fainting onstage.
"Penny and the kids have been on Rod for literally years, telling him he's no spring chicken and the way he treats his body is bound to catch up with him sooner or later, especially his booze consumption," says the source. "He's ignored them repeatedly and now, their worst fears are coming true."
The week prior, Stewart had to cancel a concert in Chula Vista, California after an acute upper respiratory infection led to laryngitis, only to be spotted at a FIFA World Cup match in Boston.
"Even now, after this latest emergency, he's telling them to back off and insisting he knows his limitations, making excuses about dehydration and saying it looked a whole lot worse to the outside eye than it actually was," the source notes. "But for Penny, enough is enough."

Jimmie Allen has been ordered to pay $1.8 million (£1.36 million) to a woman who sued him over accusations that he ****** ually ****** aulted and secretly filmed her in a Las Vegas hotel room.
Judge Aleta A Trauger ruled on Thursday 18 June that the country star be held liable by default for ****** ault and invasion of privacy in August after he ignored multiple court deadlines.
In a court order, the Big Shot singer was told to pay the accuser $597,000 (£452,000) in compensatory damages and another $1.2 million (£910,000) in punitive damages.
"The evidence shows that Mr Allen intentionally and surreptitiously filmed his ****** ual encounter with plaintiff without her consent," the court report reads. "These intentional acts caused plaintiff to suffer extreme emotional distress and trauma."
In a statement to Billboard, a lawyer for the plaintiff, known as Jane Doe 2, said the sum "recognises the profound trauma Allen inflicted on Jane Doe 2 for his own ****** ual gratification" and "underscores a fundamental principle at the heart of this case: it is never acceptable to record ****** ual activity without a partner's consent".
Thursday's ruling came in one of two civil ****** ual ****** ault lawsuits brought against Allen in 2023, derailing the singer's promising career after a run of No. 1 hits on Billboard's Country Airplay chart.
