The Spill by Mamamia

There Are Two Sides To The Beyonce Song Controversy

Jonathan Bailey has officially pulled out of Sunday in the Park with George following Ariana Grande’s departure. So was the whole point of the project getting these two back on stage together?

Plus, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are back in the UK and, naturally, the rumour mill has immediately gone into overdrive. From resurfaced stories about Meghan’s relationship with staff to mysterious warnings reportedly being sent to families at schools in the Cotswolds, we’re sorting through what we actually know and what might just be another royal headline designed to cause chaos.

And finally, an extremely important investigation: is Jacob Elordi a poor Australian pauper attempting to get his hands on Kendall Jenner’s fortune? A wild report claims Kendall’s family is worried she’s footing the bill for their whirlwind romance, but one member of the Jenner family has unexpectedly entered the chat to call BS.

MORNING TEA: Jonathan Bailey Makes A Big Call & Miley Is Teasing Something Big

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/38aaf6d1-b9ce-4be9-be20-b4b4004458cd/transcript

There's a show we're obsessed with and we need you to be too. Season two of Adults just landed on Disney+ and it's somehow even funnier than the first, so we're deep-diving the show that has Taylor Swift, us, and apparently all of TikTok in a chokehold.

We're also unpacking why the US Dancing with the Stars has quietly become the hottest ticket in Hollywood, with A-listers reportedly sliding into DMs begging for a spot. The latest name attached has sparked a full-blown fan uprising, and one theory about what it all really says about the world is a little too convincing.

And finally, we're getting to the bottom of all the lies Kylie Jenner has recently told us, from a very questionable interview to the truly unhinged claim about a talking cat that has us genuinely spooked. We need answers.
