Meghan Markle Is Feeling 'Very Pregnant' Lately, Is Relatable


Today, December 18, Meghan Markle made what is likely her final official appearance before Christmas at Sandringham with the Queen and the rest of the royal family—and, as usual, she was a totally relatable and charming.

The Duchess of Sussex visited Brinsworth House, a nursing and care home for British theater and entertainment professionals run by the Royal Variety Charity, whose benefit show she attended with Prince Harry last month. The former Suits actress—who is due to give birth to her first child in the spring—probably felt at ease among all the former performers who reside at the home, as she opened up about her pregnancy. When asked how she was feeling, Markle said “very good” before joking that she was “looking very pregnant today.” And many pregnant women around the world likely thought, “We feel you, duchess.”

The duchess also asked a woman if she had any children, to which she said, “No, I had a career.” Markle said, “That, I understand.” Even though she has security so tight that she can annoy Kendall Jenner, our American duchess clearly still has lots in common with the rest of us working women.

Honestly, it’s great to hear that she’s feeling good given the onslaught of rumors of feuds and bump shaming that Markle has been subjected to of late. But all was well today, and she even took part in some arts and crafts, making a paper Christmas ornament using those beautiful calligraphy skills she’s become known for, writing, “Merry Christmas. Love, Meghan.”

As mentioned, we likely won’t see Markle again until Christmas day, where she’ll be with Prince Harry, Prince William, and Kate Middleton—likely all in fantastic outerwear and hopefully putting rumors of a rift to rest for good.

Until then, a “Merry Christmas” from the Duchess of Sussex—who did not open or close her own car door today.

John Mayer Is Reportedly 'Very Into' Kourtney Kardashian, and We've Reached Peak 2018


In news literally no one saw coming, John Mayer is reportedly harboring a little crush for Kourtney Kardashian.

The report comes from Us Weekly, which claims Mayer was seen chatting with Kardashian at GQ‘s Men of the Year party on Thursday, December 6. “[He] seemed very into her,” an eyewitness tells Us Weekly. Mayer reportedly even told Kardashian that running into her was “sweet serendipity” and they should “meet up again soon.” (Catch Mayer’s new single “Sweet Serendipity” in early 2019, inspired form this event. Just kidding.)

So many thoughts are running through my mind. Is Mayer a fan of Keeping Up With the Kardashians? Does he know about the time Kourtney laughed at Kim for crying on vacation? Or when she told Kim that “people were dying” after she lost her diamond earrings in the ocean? Surely he knows about “Nancy,” right?

Unfortunately, though, this crush might be one-sided. A source tells Us Weekly that Mayer isn’t Kardashian’s “type at all.” So, it looks like you won’t have to prepare yourself for this out-of-the-box pairing. (Which is a bit of a relief, TBH. 2018 has been the year for shocking new celebrity couples. Please see: Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson, and Channing Tatum and Jessie J.)

If John and Kourtney aren’t dating, maybe this clears up room in his schedule for him to help Kim with her music career. Remember her song “Jam?” And the accompanying music video? John is the only person qualified to help her come up with a sequel to that masterpiece. The Billboard charts are waiting, you two.

Cardi B Says She's 'Very Depressed' That She Can't Stop Losing Weight Since Giving Birth


Cardi B recently opened up about some post-pregnancy body changes she’s struggling with. On Thursday, November 15, the Bronx-born rapper went on Instagram Live and shared that she’s been “very depressed” because she’s lost so much weight since the birth of her daughter, Kulture, this July.

“I’ve been very depressed because I cannot stop losing weight,” Cardi said in the video. “And it’s so crazy because when I first gave birth, I did everything to lose my baby weight. I was drinking Teami so it could curb my appetite and now that I lost all the baby weight in my stomach and in my arms and in my face, now I want to gain weight, but now I can’t gain weight because I have a terrible appetite. I can literally go 24 hours without eating.”

She went on to add that part of this discomfort with her weight loss has to do with her past. “I used to look too skinny as a teenager, and I used to hate it and I hate it now,” she said. “It’s been really depressing me, making me sad.”

It’s not the first time Cardi has spoken candidly about how she’s dealing with motherhood. Earlier this year, she dropped out of a high-profile tour alongside Bruno Mars, citing her new baby as the reason. “I also thought that I’d be able to bring [Kulture Kiari] with me on tour,” she explained. “But I think I underestimated this whole mommy thing.”

Still, learning to balance her baby and her career hasn’t stopped Cardi from continuing to dominate the music industry. Her first performance after giving birth stole the show at the 2018 AMAs, and she even dropped a few bars on an explosive new song that features Selena Gomez. She also just landed a role on Netflix’s upcoming hip hop competition series and launched a collection with Fashion Nova.

Cardi may be figuring some things out still, but she’s got her career on lock.

Prince William Says Princess Kate's Pregnancy With Their Third Child Is 'Very Good News'


After a somewhat rough beginning to Princess Kate‘s third pregnancy, the royals are now properly celebrating the newest addition to the family.

Prince William attended a mental health conference in Oxford on Tuesday, and before speaking about the trauma that can have a serious effect on first responders, he addressed this week’s exciting announcement, People reports.

Despite Kate’s struggles with morning sickness, which she also experienced while pregnant with George, 4, and Charlotte, 2, William said the pregnancy is “very good news,” and added, “There’s not much sleep going on at the moment.” He also noted that although Kate’s first trimester was “a bit anxious to start with,” the family has finally been able to “start celebrating this week.”

The royal family announced the big news on Monday. A statement released by Kensington Palace on Twitter reads, “Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child. The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news.” Kate’s morning sickness was also mentioned in the statement, as an explanation for her absence at upcoming events: “As with her previous two pregnancies, the Duchess is suffering from hyperemesis gravidarum. Her Royal Highness will no longer carry out her planned engagement at the Hornsey Road Children’s Centre in London today. The Duchess is being cared for at Kensington Palace.”

A little brother or sister for George and Charlotte isn’t entirely unexpected. During a trip to Poland earlier this summer, after being gifted a toy for a newborn, Kate reportedly joked, “We will just have to have more babies!” And there’s plenty of room at Kensington Palace, since Prince William and Princess Kate recently added a huge, three-story extension to the royal residence in preparation for their move from Amner Hall to the palace. The renovation proposal claimed that the nearly 5,000-square-foot expansion would “free up the palace suites for the Royal Family” and is “required to allow for the accommodation of administration which must necessarily be moved out of rooms leased from the Royal Household in Kensington Palace.” It would also free up a ton of space for a new nursery and multiple playrooms—just saying.

The full impact of Hurricane Harvey‘s destruction continues to be made apparent during what some are saying is the worst natural disaster to hit Texas. Trillion of gallons of water has been dumped on Houston and surrounding areas, and the estimated death toll has topped 50 as of Saturday, according to Houston’s Chron.com (this figure includes those who are “feared dead”). Luckily, people are doing what they can to help relief efforts. Lots of stars have opened their wallets to give to those in need and the organizations waiting to help them—and the latest to offer a donation is Taylor Swift.

On Friday, the Houston Food Bank posted that Swift had made “a very sizable donation” to the organization. She did so in honor of her mom, the food bank shared, who’s a University of Houston alumna. “We thank you, Taylor, and we thank everyone for donating to help rebuild our community,” the food bank added.

She’s not the only celebrity to give, either—far from it. After Kevin Hart, who pledged $25,000 of his own money to relief efforts, issued a call to Hollywood to donate, the Kardashians donated $500,000. Beyoncé is joining in to help her hometown with her philanthropic arm, BeyGOOD. Leonardo DiCaprio has pledged $1 million to the United Way Recovery Fund; Sandra Bullock sent another cool million to the American Red Cross. Nicki Minaj has pledged $25,000. J.Lo and Alex Rodriguez did a joint donation of $50,000. Miley Cyrus is giving $500,000. Ellen DeGeneres lived up to her last name with $75,000 in total coming from her and her show. President Donald Trump has also promised to donate $1 million of his own money.

If you want to help aid Hurricane Harvey relief efforts, here’s a list of ways you can help no matter where you are.
