Nicole Kidman has resurfaced in Portofino with a mystery man on her arm, and the grainy, old-school paparazzi shots have us fully spiralling. After that heartbreaking Keith Urban split, we're unpacking why the whole internet (us very much included) is quietly rooting for her romantic little escapade.

Then Zendaya and Tom Holland have spent months running two wildly different press tours, and the contrast is telling. We're deep diving into how one half is a giddy 'wife guy' and the other is dodging every question with surgical precision, and what it reveals about keeping a marriage secret in plain sight.

Plus, the pop culture collision we can't stop obsessing over: a beloved author, a famous former friend, and a new novel so thinly veiled that Hollywood and the New York literary scene are equally scandalised. Someone feels very betrayed — and the fallout mirrors the book itself.
