Sarah Hyland and Wells Adams Are Engaged—and Her Ring Is Stunning


After nearly two years of dating, Sarah Hyland and Bachelor Nation fan favorite Wells Adams are engaged. Hyland shared the news on her Instagram Tuesday (July 16), posting a photo of Adams popping the question on a gorgeous beach.

“That can’t eat, can’t sleep, reach for the stars, over the fence, world series kind of stuff ✨❤️ @wellsadams,” Hyland wrote in the post caption, which also includes more engagement photos and a look at her stunning engagement ring.

Adams responded to Hyland’s announcement by writing, “It takes two! Well 5 including the doggos! Love you more bab….fiancé!” He also shared some photos of the engagement to his own Instagram account. “I’ll be Johnny, you be June. But forever,” he wrote in the caption, to which Hyland commented back, “I love you to Pluto and back FIANCÉ!!!! When we get married will I automatically acquire your talent for making everyone cry with a homemade video?”

She’s referring to the video Adams somehow captured of himself proposing. Watch it, below, and try not to cry.

And here’s Hyland’s Instagram announcement:

It was first reported in October 2017 that Sarah Hyland and Wells Adams were dating. She more or less confirmed the relationship a few days later by posting a photo of the two of them with the caption, “He puts up with me.”

The couple famously met on social media. They had some cute banter back and forth on Twitter before Adams “slid into my DMs,” as Hyland put it to Jimmy Kimmel in 2018. “[He told me] ‘Next time I’m in LA, I’m taking you out for drinks and tacos,’“ Hyland recalled. “I love tacos. He loves tacos, so that was his thing. Like, ‘I love tacos, let’s see if she loves tacos.’ We both love tacos! We have an obsession with tacos. Tacos and tequila, that’s our thing.”

Is that a hint about the wedding menu? Only time will tell. But for now, congrats!

Sarah Huckabee Sanders Won't Be Missed


On Thursday, Donald Trump announced on Twitter that “After 3 1/2 years, our wonderful Sarah Huckabee Sanders will be leaving the White House at the end of the month and going home to the Great State of Arkansas.” Unlike some of Trump’s statements, this one at least has a kernel of truth to it. Indeed, soon-to-be former White House Press Secretary Sanders has lasted multiples of Scaramucci. She survived Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen and General John F. Kelly as well as fellow prominent ladies of the administration, such as former Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen and Nikki Haley, who served as ambassador to the United Nations.

But like all denizens of Trumpworld (except those who share the president’s last name), she has run her course.

For months, there had been speculation that Sanders would step down. It’s less clear from what, given that she hasn’t stood behind the podium to take questions from the press in over 95 days. The New York Times summed up the job she is set to depart like this: “In Tokyo, she took a sushi-making class. In London, she posted a Buckingham Palace selfie with Louise Linton, the actress who is married to the Treasury secretary, Steven Mnuchin. (In an undocumented interaction, she asked the Prince of Wales to sign her dinner menu. He did.) In Ireland, Ms. Sanders and her husband, Bryan, took a photo with a group of Trump loyalists at the president’s private golf club and visited a local pub.” In other words, she’s spent the past few months like most Trumpian kleptocrats: enjoying the perks of government “work.”

With no actual accomplishments to memorialize in the traditional White House departure post-mortem, Sanders will be remembered first and foremost not for what she did, but for how she did it: With frequent sneers and ceaseless scorn, she was one more woman who helped Trump launder his sexism and racism. Like Ivanka Trump, with her nebulous “women’s empowerment initiative,” or Kellyanne Conway, who claimed that women who oppose Trump “just have a problem with women in power,” Sanders has obfuscated and stalled and deflected, providing effective cover for some of the president’s most misogynistic behavior.

Sanders lied about the president’s hush money payments to adult film actor Stormy Daniels, telling the press that “the president has addressed these directly and made very well clear that none of these allegations are true.” (Reader, it turned out what she meant was all of those allegations were in fact true.)

Barry's Sarah Goldberg: I'll Never Get Used to the Red Carpet, But This Trick Helps


“What’s your name, honey?” someone yells.

“This way!”

“Over here.”

“Full frontal!”

“Over the shoulder. Smile!!!!!“

My retinas are burnt—I hope not permanently—but I can make out a wall of people, mainly men, screaming at me from behind the aggressive flashing of their bulbs. I know I’m not supposed to blink or smile too hard, but I can’t keep the face I rehearsed in the mirror in place. In fact, I think I’ve developed a facial twitch. My hands seem to have traveled up to my hips, where they are clutching tightly at my body in a vain search for some kind of eject button. I am confident I have the lip outline of the mother of the groom and my tit tape is threatening early retirement. I pray my sudden paralysis will read as composure. Then, suddenly, the conveyor belt moves and I’m chucked out the end, where a beautiful girl in blue hands me a Fiji water. I detect an ounce of pity on her face as she scratches in between her teeth, urgently suggesting I do the same.

When I decided to become an actor, I didn’t know I was going to have to “do carpets.” (“She’ll go. She’ll do the carpet.”) My concerns were much more immediate. Would I find work? Would I be able to pay my rent? Would I ever meet Dianne Wiest?

I went to drama school in London, where we rolled around like animals, found our inner clowns, laughed and cried into actual walls, climbed over imaginary ones, and played characters forty years older than us in accents we simply couldn’t do. The humiliation was bottomless. I have a degree in it. But no amount of roaming on all fours and no cacophony of faux Liverpudlian accents could have prepared me for the specific experience of the red carpet. Actually, they are rarely red these days. They come in an array of colors: blue, green, taupe….shame.

This past award season was my first. There were many surprises. (Failed tit tape was sadly not one of them.) There were the protestors with signs telling me to burn in hell, the vehicle bomb checks carried out by men with large machine guns, and the port-a-loos! (Big award season takeaway is that if you tell actors there’s a trophy we will queue in a parking lot and pee in a port-a-loo. Is Nicole Kidman really using the port-a-loo?) I don’t know what I was expecting when it came to the actual carpets, but the scale and volume of them were dizzying.

I felt vulnerable, anxious, and totally exposed. I resented the expectation of women to show up looking perfect after hours of preparation, while the men could simply throw on a suit. (An imbalance not unique to my profession, but the carpet acts like an exaggerated microcosm of the scrutiny women face on a daily basis.) Not to mention the sadomasochistic next day Google of cruel captions about a dress I can’t actually afford in real life.

I am one of the luckiest people alive to be able to pay my rent from a job I actually love doing, so if walking down a burnt orange rug in shoes designed by Beelzebub is the worst of it, I can’t complain. Nonetheless, the anxiety is real and I had to find a way to navigate—even enjoy—the whole circus. At one particularly intimidating event (after my eye sight returned and the shot of tequila I drank en route set in) I realized that the only way forward was to embrace the chaos and tie it to my real job as an actor: telling stories. So I started coming up with characters to match the evening’s attire. Now I let whoever I am playing that night “do” the carpet for me.

Below, a few of the women who got me through.

Sarah Hart Was ‘Intoxicated’: Everything We’ve Learned So Far About the Hart Family From the Coroner’s Inquest


UPDATE 4/4/19 8:50 PM

The jury returned verdicts in the Hart case on Thursday, ruling that the mothers died by suicide and all six children died by homicide. Each decision was unanimous and the deliberations took just one hour. The manner of death will now be entered by the county onto each one of their official death certificates.

The four options presented to the jury were: natural, suicide, accident, and “at the hands of another, other than by accident,” which the sheriff clarified is homicide.

In some of the final testimony of the day, California Highway Patrol Officer Jake Slates said, “Ultimately, I feel that based on Sarah and Jen’s history, the pattern of alleged abuse, that this was just another case where they ran.”

Slates believes the women had not yet totally decided on the suicide plan while Googling about methods on Saturday or while they were buying groceries at Safeway or toiletries at Dollar Tree on Sunday morning. At some point, Slates says, while driving along the coast in their final day, they decided to commit to the plan. That “if they couldn’t have those kids, then nobody was going to have those kids.”

Mendocino County Sheriff Lt. Shannon Barney echoed Slates’ conclusion on the stand: “It is my belief that both Jennifer and Sarah succumbed to a lot of pressure … to the point they made a conscious decision to end their lives and to take the children with them.”

ORIGINAL STORY:

Last September Glamour reported on the tragic story of the Harts—mothers Jennifer and Sarah Hart and their six adopted children. On social media Jen Hart portrayed the image of a happy, postracial American family, but what was going on inside their Woodland, Washington, home turned out to be something very different.

Jen, Sarah, and their children Markis, 19, Hannah, 16, Devonte, 15, Abigail, 14, Jeremiah, 14, and Sierra, 12 (two sets of black biological siblings) were often referred to as the Hart Tribe. But on March 26, 2018, their car was found at the bottom of a cliff off California’s Highway 1.

In the coroner’s inquest today at the Willitts Justice Center in Willitts, California, investigators have revealed the timeline of what happened in the family’s final hours. Among the new details revealed in testimony today was exactly what was in the system of each family member when the Yukon plummeted off the cliff. Evidence presented showed that many members of the family were most likely heavily sedated, with Sarah, who investigators say was in the passenger seat, having the equivalent of 42 single doses of diphenhydramine, a Benadryl-like drug, in her system.

Jennifer was driving—and was legally drunk—but didn’t show signs of having taken diphenhydramine. Investigators revealed that the family had purchased an Equate-branded version at a Walmart in Washington State shortly after leaving their house on March 23, 2018, before continuing down the Pacific coast. Both liquid and pill versions of the drug were found in the family’s car.

California Highway Patrol Officer Jake Slates, the lead investigator on the case, testified that by his calculations Markis had taken the equivalent of more than 19 doses, Abigail had taken 14 doses, and Jeremiah had taken more than eight single doses. Slates said that Sarah would have likely been “intoxicated” by the amount she had taken, and the kids would “more than likely be unconscious or asleep.”

The body of Devonte, the teen featured in a photo hugging a cop that went viral, is still missing, though he was officially pronounced dead in a California court in March.

Investigators also concluded that no one had been wearing a seat belt and that Jen had accelerated the car before going off the cliff.

Sarah Jessica Parker Revived Carrie Bradshaw for an Important Campaign With Stella Artois


Several things are synonymous with Sarah Jessica Parker’s Sex and the City character, Carrie Bradshaw: New York City, Manolo Blahniks, cosmopolitans. That third one is the center of Stella Artois’ new campaign with Water.org, “Pour It Forward,” aimed at ending the global water crisis.

The message is simple: For every bottle of Stella Artois sold at a bar or restaurant, one person receives a month’s worth of access to clean water in the developing world. Buying a six-pack of Stella, for example, gives someone six months worth of clean water access. A 12-pack, 12 months of clean water. You get the idea.

It’s a great cause, so of course in the new Stella Artois campaign (which will air during the Super Bowl), Carrie changes her usual cosmo order for a Stella. The restaurant descends into madness. The same chaos happens moments later, when The Dude from The Big Lebowski, Jeff Bridges, opts for a Stella in lieu of his regular White Russian.

“Good choice,” Carrie tells The Dude after he takes the seat next to her. He responds, “Changing can do a little good.” Yes, it can.

We chatted with Parker about the campaign and what she loves most about Carrie Bradshaw, and Sex and the City 3, which, as you probably know, came very close to happening.

Glamour: What made you decide this was the right moment to bring back Carrie Bradshaw?

Sarah Jessica Parker: Pretty simple: Stella Artois and Water.org. I thought [about] the campaign, the kind of effort they’ve shown, the impact they’ve had. Water.org’s commitment. The important and urgent work that’s being done. I think the campaign is really clever, and everything they offered—the execution—was just really smart and the message delivered was something I believed in and felt really good about. I felt privileged to be asked to be part of it.

The actual concept of the campaign is so spot-on, because Carrie does have this signature drink. How was the day of the shoot?

It was pretty exciting. We had been away with Christmas break, so I was traveling home from pretty far away and dropping my children off in New York and switching planes and heading to Los Angeles. I landed really late, then had a fitting for a couple of hours to get everything as right as we felt we could. [We wanted] a story that was immediately recognizable in terms of the details. The directing team was so talented. Everybody surrounding the campaign, those on the set—everyone involved was simply good at what they did. It was joyful. The set was fun. It was relaxed. The first day I shot alone, and the second day I got to work with Jeff [Bridges], which was an absolute crazy treat. It was fun. I wanted it to be good. I wanted people who cared about Carrie Bradshaw to feel that I was doing right by her—that this was a message she would deliver. So you try to take care of all that stuff in advance of someone yelling “action.”

[embedded content]

Carrie Bradshaw is someone you’ve played in several iterations now: the series, the two movies, and now these spots for Stella Artois. Is it still fun stepping into her shoes? Is it just as fun as it was in 1998?

It is. I think ever more so for this because of the campaign. Because of the message. Because of the global impact. And because you have this unique moment when you have so many people gathered to watch [the Super Bowl]. There’s a lot of eyeballs on this game. It’s such an opportune moment to [guide] people toward their better instincts. Americans have a long history of reaching out, of wanting to be involved, of wanting to participate, and this is such a simple way. It felt exciting and purposeful and, therefore, more fun to play her for this.

Sarah Jessica Parker Just Brought Carrie Bradshaw Back, and We're So Here for It


Hold onto your Manolos: Sarah Jessica Parker just teased the return of her Sex and the City character, Carrie Bradshaw, in an Instagram video.

On Saturday, January 19, the actress shared a video of herself in character strutting up the streets of New York City in a nod to the iconic SATC intro. The brief clip—which was even set to the SATC theme—features SJP in a very Carrie-meets-vintage-Madonna outfit: a pair of white lace heels, gloves, seafoam tulle skirt, purple beaded clutch.

In the video’s caption, SJP confirmed that her beloved character is back for an important reason. “My old friend. She is making a brief reappearance. Partnering with a great brand and supporting a cause we all care about. More to come. X, SJ,” Parker wrote.

You can check it out the video for yourself below:

If you think you’re excited, even Andy Cohen and Katherine Schwarzenegger couldn’t contain their excitement in the comments section, with Cohen writing “I <3 CB” and Schwarzenegger commenting “omg omg omg.”

After all the recent drama surrounding the show, we never thought we’d see Carrie again outside of our insomnia-driven/hungover/lazy Saturday/let’s-face-it-whenever SATC binges. Unfortunately, however, this definitely isn’t a promo for a Sex and the City 3 since it’s been confirmed that the movie isn’t going to happen. There were once, after all, rumors of a three-quel for a while now, but those hopes and dreams are no more. In all likelihood, from what her caption indicates, it’s a preview of an upcoming brand partnership—one with a social responsibility angle, maybe?—that will feature SJP in character as Carrie—and well, we’ll definitely be happy with that.
