Donna Kelce, 71, hinted at possible future grandchildren from Travis Kelce, 34, in a new episode of his and his brother Jason Kelce‘s New Heights podcast this week. When the boyfriend of Taylor Swift asked if he was his mom’s favorite during the show, she jokingly replied, “Not yet.”

“Ugh, the burn!” Travis responded before Donna went on to assure him that she loves both him and Jason, 36, “just the same.” The Kansas City Chiefs player added that he understands that the reason Jason’s number one is because he’s given her grandchildren. The Philadelphia Eagles player shares three daughters with his wife, Kylie Kelce, including Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 2, and 10-month-old Bennett.

The new episode of the podcast comes around 10 months after Travis talked about possibly having kids in a different episode. During the February show, he jokingly said he needs to “find a breeder” and have kids so his mother “can love [him] again.”

Donna also gushed over the grandchildren she already has, in an interview with Us Weekly. “When I’m with them, I’m in the moment,” she said. “I want to do what they’re doing. I want to play what they’re playing. I want to read to them. I want to build blocks, try to be as active as I possibly can and be attentive to what they’re doing and know that I value their time and I value who they are.”

Of course, it’s unclear whether or not Travis will have kids in the future, but Donna has showed support when it comes to his current romance with Taylor. The lovebirds have been dating since July and the doting parent, who often attends both of her sons’ football games, has been seen hanging out with the singer during more than one Chiefs game. She also broke her silence about the relationship back in October.

“I feel like I’m in an alternate universe, because it’s something I’ve never been involved with before,” she said about all the attention Travis and Taylor’s love story has been getting, in an episode of the Got It From My Momma podcast. “I thought it would be over at that point, but it seems to just continue. Every week just seems to trump the week before. So it’s really kind of wild, a wild ride.”

Gypsy Rose Blanchard is enjoying family time as a free woman.

The 32-year-old Missouri woman reunited with her loved ones to celebrate her release from prison after serving seven years for her role in the murder of her mom Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard, who she had accused of abuse. On Dec. 29, Gypsy shared a photo of herself at her welcome home party with Mia Blanchard, 22—one of two children dad Rod Blanchard‘s shares with wife Kristy Blanchard.

She captioned her Instagram post, “Sister Love.”

In other images circulating on social media, Gypsy is also seen at the party with her father and stepmother. A video shows her popping Champagne with her husband, Ryan Scott Anderson, who she married in 2022 while in prison.

The photos shortly followed Gypsy’s first “selfie of freedom,” which she shared on Instagram earlier in the day. In all her pics, she wears jeans and a blue and white ombre sweatshirt, the same outfit she was photographed in while leaving prison the day prior.

Brooke Hogan, 35, secretly married hockey player Steven Olesky last year, according to TMZ. The daughter of Hulk Hogan and the athlete reportedly had a private ceremony in Orlando, FL on June 8, 2022 and  both looked gorgeous. A new photo of the lovebirds was posted by the outlet and showed them walking hand in hand on their special day.

Brooke wore a sleeveless long white gown and veil as most of her hair was up with some loose strands hanging down. She also held a bouquet of flowers as she flashed a big smile. Steven wore an all black suit and tie and matching shoes.

TMZ further reported that Brooke and Steven were the only ones at their ceremony but they had a reception for Steven’s side of the family earlier this month. The beauty’s new husband is a professional ice hockey defenseman who played for the Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins and she reportedly met him through mutual friends.

As Brooke enjoys her new marriage, she’s been working hard in her professional career. The star has been running her own Nashville-based interior design firm called BB Designs by Brooke and released a new single, “Don’t Know It Yet,” this month.

Before Brooke made headlines with her marriage, she got attention for being absent from her father’s wedding in September. The wrestling champion married Sky Daily in front of some family and friends in Florida and Brooke later addressed her absence in a social media message.

“As many of you know, I value my privacy, but unfortunately, a lot of media outlets are making assumptions as to why I did not attend my father’s third wedding,” she wrote. “Instead of leaving it to speculation, I decided it’s better to shut it all down here. As we all experience this with our own families, the dynamics of a family unit change over the years.”

Brooke further admitted that her family has “experienced a LOT of change” over the years and said she’s had to “learn how to best navigate those changes as they come, which has been difficult to say the least.”

“For my own journey to healing and happiness, I have chosen to create some distance between myself and my family, and am focusing on people and things that heal my heart and align with my own personal beliefs, goals, and values.” she continued before ending the message with, “I wish him well.”

Zac Brown, 45, and his wife, Kelly Yazdi, 32, are calling it quits. The country singer and actress released a joint statement announcing their intention to go through with a divorce on Friday. The news comes only four months after they said “I do.”

“We are in the process of divorce,” they told Page Six, in the statement before adding that they have. a “mutual respect for one another remains.”

“We wish each other the best and will always appreciate our time together,” the former lovebirds continued. They also asked for “privacy” as they “navigate this personal matter.”

Zac and Kelly’s divorce comes after they had their wedding in Georgia back in August. Although they were both pretty private about their romance, Kelly had added Zac’s last name to her social media handle at one point, but has since removed it. According to her website, the beauty is “a born adventurer, events producer, SAG-AFTRA actress, stuntwoman and professional model.”

Before their marriage, Zac and Kelly got engaged in 2022 while vacationing in Hawaii. The news went public in December of that year and a source told  PEOPLE  that Zac popped the question a while before that. “He proposed in Hawaii a while ago,” the source said. “It was very intimate and the couple has kept it very private.”

Zac and Kelly first caused engagement speculation when Kelly was seen wearing an engagement ring in a July 2022 Instagram video posted to the Zac Brown Band’s account. She put her hand in a group huddle as they sang “Happy Birthday” to the smiling musician before a show.

Zac’s engagement happened four years after he split from ex-wife Shelly, with whom he shares five children, including a son, Alexander and daughters Joni, Georgia, Lucy, and Justice, 15. He and Shelly were married for twelve years before ending their romance in 2018.

“We feel blessed to be on such an incredible journey in life and sometimes the journey begins to lead in different directions,” the former longtime couple said in a joint statement to PEOPLE in October 2018.  “It is with deep love and respect that we announce we are separating as a couple. We have led a whirlwind life together growing into a beautiful family with five amazing children and while life will be rearranging a bit, our love and commitment to our family will always be there.”

“The key is to normalize your situation, normalize your lifestyle,” he explained. “I have a very consistent, disciplined lifestyle. I surround myself with loyal, integrity-filled people, and that’s my basis. And going to the Olympic Games, nothing changes.”

Which isn’t to say he doesn’t appreciate the pinnacle of international competition, another highlight of which is being surrounded by likeminded athletes at the Olympic Village. “Everything about the Olympic Games, besides the contest, felt different,” Eaton recalled of Tokyo. “The media and the attention around it, I’ve never seen anything like it, so that was unfamiliar.”

“But competing in a pressure position,” he continued, “felt right at home. I remember putting my headphones in and warming up before the event and being like, ‘Wow, I didn’t know I was going to feel this comfortable.'”

And this is why he takes pride in being “incredibly present,” because the moment at hand is the only thing that matters in such a situation.

“If you’re thinking about a meeting that you have next week, you’re going to make it 10 times crazier in your head than when you actually get to the meeting,” Eaton said. “The biggest part about the Olympics is the anticipation. I think that’s where a lot of athletes fall short, because they make it so much bigger in their head. It’s just another contest.”

Chi-Hards, your favorite Chicago-set shows will be returning in 2024! Chicago Med is among the NBC shows premiering in the new year. NBC isn’t wasting any time bringing One Chicago night back to your television screens.

Chicago Med is entering its ninth season after a wild season 8. Two beloved doctors left the hospital, and now a new one is being thrown into the mix in season 9. Hollywood Life has rounded up all the key updates about Chicago Med season 9.

Will ‘Chicago Med’ Return in 2024?

Yes, Chicago Med is coming back in 2024. The Chicago Med season 9 premiere date is January 17, 2024. The series will air at 8 p.m. ET on NBC, kicking off One Chicago night on Wednesdays. Episodes will be available to stream the next day on Peacock.

Like the majority of scripted shows, Chicago Med’s ninth season was delayed until midseason due to the writers’ and SAG-AFTRA strikes. The new seasons of the One Chicago shows are expected to have shortened seasons of about 13 episodes, according to Deadline.

Who Is Returning to ‘Chicago Med’ for Season 9?

Many of your favorite Gaffney Chicago Medical Center employees will be returning for Chicago Med season 9. Cast members expected to return include S. Epatha Merkerson as Sharon Goodwin, Oliver Platt as Dr. Daniel Charles, Marlyne Barrett as Maggie Lockwood, Dominic Rains as Dr. Crockett Marcel, Steven Weber as Dr. Dean Archer, and Jessy Schram as Dr. Hannah Asher.

Blindspot actor Luke Mitchell has joined the cast of Chicago Med season 9 in a recurring role. While the role is just recurring at the moment, Deadline reported that Luke could become a series regular.

Luke will play Dr. Mitch Ripley, an “Emergency Department doctor with a troubled past who shares a history with Dr. Charles.” The character is expected to debut in the season 9 premiere.

Why Did Nick Gehlfuss & Brian Tee Leave ‘Chicago Med?’

Season 8 featured the exits of longtime Chicago Med vets Nick Gehlfuss and Brian Tee as Dr. Will Halstead and Dr. Ethan Choi. Will left Chicago in the season 8 finale to live with Natalie in Seattle. The character had been a series regular since the show’s premiere in 2015.

“It was a difficult decision, but ultimately, I felt I’d taken Dr. Halstead as far as I can go with him,” Nick told Variety. “I think that comes down to a creative part of you, or the energy or spirit you have that you’re either built for a very long time with one person or not. I am attracted to the profession for the variety in it, and eight years is a long time. It’s two college degrees! I’m joking now that I basically have a doctorate in television.”

Thankfully, Nick isn’t ruling out a return to Chicago. “We were all in agreement on that, thankfully, as I talked with Dick [Wolf] and the writers,” Nick added. “Whenever it makes sense again for important moments, I’d love to don the white lab coat once again.”

Earlier in the season, Brian bid farewell to the character he’d played since the series premiere. Ethan left in the season 8 midseason finale to launch a mobile clinic to help underserved communities in the city with April.

“I think Choi wanted more,” Brian told NBC Insider about why Ethan left the hospital. “I think he needed to help the people he felt needed him the most. I think he loved Chicago Med, but he had a higher purpose in the sense of really trying to heal a city that is wounded. Especially in the inner cities, especially those that, you know, may be struggling either financially or situationally.”

He continued, “I think he [Choi], being from Chicago, has this urgency to want to help and heal, especially those that need him the most. And I think that’s why he chose this particular path and why he left Chicago Med.”

Similar to Nick, Brian is open to returning to the show in the future. “I leave the door always open,” Brian said. “Chicago Med has been an incredible experience and ride for myself personally. And I’ve made some wonderful friends that I hold near and dear to my heart. And going back just to work—not even being in front of the camera—going back to work, and seeing and working with the cast and crew would just be a joy to do.”

Brian has been busy since his Chicago Med exit. He’s starring alongside Nicole Kidman in the Prime Video series Expats. The show will premiere on January 26, 2024.

What Will ‘Chicago Med’ Season 9 Be About?

Chicago Med season 9 will likely pick right up from the finale upheaval. Will decided to manipulate the OR 2.0 system to produce a bad result and ended up resigning. Will and most of the doctors had been fighting to protect the hospital from becoming solely for-profit when Jack Dayton took over. Because of the OR 2.0 system fiasco, Dayton told Goodwin that he was going to have to sell the hospital.

With Will in Seattle, his absence is going to be felt in season 9. With a new doctor coming into the mix, expect some feathers to be ruffled. Meanwhile, Archer is still in need of a kidney donation after his son relapsed.

The holiday season is full of so many wonderful elements, but one of my favorites has to be beauty gift sets. These are limited edition combinations, like beauty advent calendars, that you can only get once a year and are typically valued at a much higher price than they’re selling for. And they come from all your favorite brands, like Anastasia Beverly Hills, Bobbi Brown, Kiehl’s, Living Proof, and more, for skincare, makeup, hair, brow, and lip care. So, they’re a great deal for some great products. But even though the holidays are over, you can still snag these gift sets and the greatest part of all is…they’re on sale at Sephora.

We’re talking eye and face palettes from Too Faced, valued at $306 but on sale for $27. We’re talking false eyelash sets from Sephora, valued at $29 but on sale for $9. We’re talking a smoother skin essentials kit from First Aid Beauty, valued at $118 but on sale for $39. I could go on, or you could just scroll down and see for yourself.

But these limited edition gift sets are going fast. So don’t miss out, head over to Sephora and start adding them to your cart. It’s a New Year miracle!

What’s better than keeping up with your favorite actor? 

Maybe it’s finding out that there’s more DNA where they came from!

Famous siblings are relatively common, of course, from the Brothers Hemsworth and Jonas to the trio of sisters who make up the band Haim, and so many stars count one or more siblings as their best friends in the world, business partners, roommates, etc. But there are only so many who bunked together before they were even born. 

There are sets of celebrity twins you know well because they’ve been building their brand together every step of the way, à la Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and others who you’ve seen a lot of, only…you’re just not sure which one is in which thing.

And then there are stars who were born as one-half of a pair and their brother or sister has a regular job, so you may not know who they are—but rest assured that their biggest fan is usually their twin. Or, in Gisele Bündchen‘s case, her business manager!
