Rihanna loves to make an entrance at the Met Gala, and she did it again on Monday when she revealed that she is expecting her third child with rapper A $AP Rocky.

Before her arrival at the A-list fundraising gala, the singer and beauty mogul revealed her new baby bump.

In a fitted gray Miu Miu blouse and skirt, with the baby bump clearly visible, matching knee-high boots, a fur stole, and a black cloche hat, she embraced the Black dandy theme of the gala in a portrait taken by photographer Miles Diggs.

Then her long-time partner, co-chair of the event, A $AP Rocky, who greeted reporters at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and waved congratulations, confirmed the news.

The rapper recited, “Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.” “We’re all happy because we’re definitely happy,” I said.

After all the other guests had arrived, Rihanna donned a deconstructed black ensemble, a cropped jacket, polka dots, and a wide-brimmed hat, and headed out on the red carpet. She savored the camera as she cradled the bump.

While performing at the Super Bowl halftime show, Rihanna made a similar well-known pregnancy announcement in 2023. Before giving birth, she later attended the Met Gala.

RZA, born in May 2022, and Riot, born in August 2023, are her and A $AP Rocky’s children.

Serena Williams, a former tennis player, did it in 2023, and Karlie Kloss, a model, cradled her bump in both 2023 and again this year.

At the age of 59, Michaelaela Strachan became a grandmother and shared the sweet news with her followers on social media. She shared a photo of her stepson, Tom, and his new child, Huxley, on Instagram, and wrote, “Today I became a Granny!!” Baby Huxley arrived after 55 hours of labor that was incredibly labor-intensive and exhausting. !

“I’m so proud of my future daughter-in-law,” the final phrase. My step-son, @tchev3000, is proud to be new parents. Weirdly emotional between myself and granny @jackyhumphries. Hello, Huxley, baby. So precious, indeed.

Michaela’s fans thanked the Springwatch star for her positive news, which also included snaps of Huxley’s proud mother and grandmas.

Nick Chevallier, Tom’s father, and Nick Chevallier, the film’s director and cameraman, met Michaela in Cape Town in 2003.

After being concerned that widower Nick, who already had three of his own children, wouldn’t want to be a father for the fourth time, the couple were overjoyed to welcome their son Ollie in 2006.

When Michaela confessed her fears in an interview with The Times, she said: “When I got together with Nick, I thought he might not want a fourth child of his own.” However, everything turned out. He is in love with Ollie.

In a 2016 interview with the Mail Online, Michaela shared her love for motherhood, saying, “When I was younger, I didn’t think I would have a child. That changed, I’m so happy. I adore being a mother, and there is no love like Oliver’s. But when I first met him, I realized we had a species problem.

She then proceeded to say, “I was 39 when I had this child, and I realized I had no idea what babies were.” I was so judgmental about how difficult it was. Why hasn’t anyone told me about this, I wondered? I would have assisted in raising other people’s babies and had been able to tell the difference if we had been still living in community structures. Although it’s an interesting discussion, I’m not saying that being more like lions is the answer.

Kim Turnbull first fell in love with Romeo Beckham last summer, and the Beckham family has been deeply tensed by her new romance due to rumors about a past feud with Brooklyn.

The Beckhams are known for being one of the most tight-knit families in showbiz, but that seems to have changed. David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebrations might have confirmed a rift in the pack, and sources say it could all be down to newcomer Kim Turnbull.

David celebrated his big milestone at the fancy Core restaurant in London, and it was attended by stars including Guy Ritchie, Eva Longoria and Gordon Ramsay. And, of course, his family all turned up – bar Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz-Beckham.

Kim, 24, was there as the girlfriend of Romeo Beckham, 22, and is said to be the reason behind Brooklyn’s absence, with the brothers reportedly no longer on speaking terms due to the relationship, despite her closeness with the rest of the family. But who is Kim, and why has her appearance put such a spanner in the works for David, Victoria, and their four children?

Kim herself has a very wealthy background, and she is not a stranger to fame. While Romain’s girlfriend is the granddaughter of world-renowned post-war artist and painter William Turnbull, her parents Johnny and Alex were members of the 1979 post-punk band 23 Skidoo.

Kim, who primarily works as a model and DJ, appears to have acquired Turnbull’s creative abilities. Beyond his punk background, her father, who founded the UK hip hop label Ronin Records and has a lot of connections in the music business, are also related to her father.

Kim, who has collaborated with numerous fashion companies, including Tommy Hilfiger, leads a similarly glamorous social life to her Beckham boyfriend, and enjoys attending exclusive events with other celebrities.

Kim was well-known for her closeness with Brooklyn, many sources claiming that they had a romantic relationship before she started dating Romeo.

In their late teens, Kim formed a close trio with Brooklyn and Madonna’s son Rocco Ritchie, whom she befriended soon after he moved to London. Aside from spending time as a group, Brooklyn and Kim also spent lots of time as a duo and were pictured enjoying lunch together in 2016, with many sources claiming that they were dating.

Kim and Rocco started dating in 2017, the year that it was rumored to be related, but Brooklyn continued to enjoy their mutual friendship.

The family remains firm in dispelling rumours that Brooklyn dated Kim, and Cruz Beckham recently weighed in on the discussion. In a now deleted post, a fan wrote in response to a photo of Kim and Romeo: “It’s appropriate to date your brother’s ex too? Cool.” Before the post disappeared, Cruz reportedly stated: “Brooklyn and Kim never dated.”

Years later, sources have told TMZ that Romeo’s relationship with Kim is playing its part in the siblings falling out considering Brooklyn’s own history with her. Concerning the rumoured past romance, a source assured that “that’s all water under the bridge” considering Brooklyn is happily married to Nicola, but that “the issue at hand is the couple questions whether Kim has the right intentions in dating Romeo”.

Now, the outlet reports that Brooklyn has told his family that he will not attend any family events that Kim is also invited to. Considering Kim was at David’s birthday, Brooklyn is now said to be feeling left out and feels his family have chosen to side against him. A source close to Brooklyn told The Sun: “He flew to London with the sole intention of seeing his family and celebrating his dad’s birthday.

He suggested having breakfast or a cup of coffee, but he was informed that Kim would likely attend one of their lavish parties, so he objected. His parents, in his opinion, have preferred Romeo and his new girlfriend over him.

Despite the strict phone ban, Rapper Megan Thee Stallion risked upsetting Met Gala host Anna Wintour by providing fans with a behind-the-scenes look at the lavish event.

The Met Gala returned for another year as A-list stars descended on New York to attend Anna Wintour’s lavish event. They flocked to the famed Metropolitan Museum of Art for the bash held by the Vogue editor-in-chief.

Held on the first Monday of May each year, the annual haute couture fundraising festival sees attempt at following the theme (or failing miserably). This year’s Met Gala had the theme Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, and the accompanying dress code is Tailored for You.

The event was co-chaired by Anna, Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A $AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams, Colman Domingo, and honorary chair LeBron James.

The exclusive guest list includes 450 names from various industries, including technology, sports, sports, entertainment, and beyond. However, getting an invitation is only the start because attendees must purchase a ticket, which cost $75, 000 last year.

The Met Gala’s strict policy requires that attendees use their phones only while inside the venue and that they are not permitted to post photos on social media during the event.

Yet, Megan Thee Stallion defied the request as she gave fans a very sneaky look inside the four walls of the event. The rapper posted her own vlog of the Met Gala as she tucked into various canapés with WNBA star Angel Reese and rapper Doechii.

Before Megan took her fans inside the opulent venue, the trio gave their frank evaluations of the food. She met other stars while visiting The Metropolitan Museum of Art along with Tracee Ellis Ross.

Megan acknowledged that she wasn’t supposed to be on her phone, but she was already aware of Anna’s guidelines. The music producer’s ex-girlfriend found the tape that had “snuck” her camera inside and removed.

Phones and selfies have been banned from the exclusive event since 2015, but Megan isn’t the only one to have ever broken the rules. Kylie Jenner famously shared snaps from the bash in the past.

However, Megan’s fans continued to warn her as one phrased: “GIRL now be careful. Thank you for the inside information, but the pictures in the bathrooms show smoking.

Another phrase was added, “Girl, they’re going to get you.” Someone else said, “She done snuck that phone in there Meg, you gone get us in trouble but thanks.” Fourth author remarked, “Here, Anna, make you delete this.” Another person thanked you for this forbidden footage, “Sis.”

Megan bumped into Cynthia Erivo, the star of Wicked, while filming the event. Then she made her way over to Angela Bassett, who she described as stunning, and showed off Lupita Nyong’o’s “stunning” rhinestone eyebrows, which she called beautiful.

Serena Williams and Megan snuck their phone in before Megan admitted to doing it.

The Vogue boss dispelled the ingrained myth that she must approve of all outfits that celebrities wear to the Met Gala before the event in its entirety.

She revealed that many A-list guests ask for advice freely and without having to give them her official approval.

Michael Strahan, the host of Good Morning America, questioned Anna about whether she had to approve all the outfits seen on the red carpet, and she responded, “No.”

Anna continued, “We try to help some of them as much as we can, because many call and ask our advice. Some people have no idea.

Co-chair Pharrell Williams made a point about having a room full of successful Black people from all walks of life before the event.

He told Vogue: “It’s so important to me to have successful Black and brown people of every stripe in the room: not just athletes and actors and actresses, entertainers, but also authors, architects, folks from the fintech world.

We must make an investment in one another. It’s going to take everyone to unite the forces of Black and Brown genius into a single, effective force.

The dress received praise from customers for its “perfect fit,” flattering cut, and “beautiful” color.

A “gorgeous” and “flattering” tea dress that customers love has been discounted by Boden. From just £136, you can purchase the Bright Blue Cynthia Button Tea Dress. The price of the dress is also lower than the rich emerald color, but only the blue polka dot style is offered.

The dress is typically available in sizes four to twenty, but some sizes have already sold out. It can be purchased in petite or regular sizes. The dress can be worn “for years,” according to Boden, and it is simple to wear on numerous occasions.

This tea dress is oh-so-wearable for many occasions, not just those that involve scones, according to the product description. The dress has a regular shape that is meant to fit mid-calf. It has a self-tie waist back, button-fastening front, and a lined bodice.

Debenhams sells a similar Roman Polka Dot Ruched Sleeve Midi Dress for £55. The polka dot style is well-liked by customers. Additionally, New Look offers an Apricot Blue Polka Dot Midi Dress for £49 while Finery London offers a Talise Blue Polka Dot Print Midi Dress for £44.50.

Shoppers have rated Boden’s Cynthia Button Tea Dress for its “flattering” fit, with many praising the style. What a gorgeous dress, one customer said. The color is stunning. It is extremely flattering and classic. Although it costs a little bit more, I believe I’ll keep using it for years.

“Lovely dress,” another customer said. Fits perfectly, and the color is stunning in blue. A third responded, “Love the dress, but the fabric made it a little more formal than I wanted.” Ordering was simple, products were quick to ship, and returns were simple. Bravo.

Another user commented, “Great color and great cut: I like how the button placket is still completely opaque because it is still lined with fabric.” However, another person praised the dress as “lovely because of the shape and color.”

“I’m normally a size 12 in Boden, but this dress was huge on me, so sadly had to return because it was far too long on my 5ft frame (ordered petite). A customer complained that the waist could be a little lower due to the easy flowing fabric. Great color! A different reviewer concurred. Comfortable with a little high waist!

Another purchaser of the green dress added, “I SO wanted to love this because it looks really pretty on the model, but when I tried it on, I felt a little dated,” which was confirmed by my very sweet but sincere boyfriend, who referred to it as “an old lady dress.” Given that the silhouette was nice, a different pattern or color might have worked. I had to give it back, but I was hopeful.

Boden’s sale also includes its Jen Cotton Midi Dress, which is now £56.25, down from its original price of £125. Boden suggests the dress would be perfect for occasions. The product description states: “Holiday, wedding, christening, important work meeting, dinner with friends – get yourself a dress that can tackle any occasion. This one’s just the ticket. Lightweight printed cotton is cut to a flowy, long-sleeved shape that’s finished with a notch neck and belted waist.”
