For fans who followed Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe from the Love Island USA villa to life after the show, their relationship has come to an end. The couple have split after more than a year together, bringing one of the season’s most closely followed relationships to a close.

A source described the breakup as amicable, saying the pair struggled to balance a long-distance relationship with increasingly demanding personal and professional schedules. Despite ending their romance, they are said to remain close friends and continue to support one another.

Carthen and Vansteenberghe became fan favourites during Season 7 of Love Island USA. Their relationship developed after the Casa Amor twist, where both were given another chance to find a connection. Although their pairing was not immediate, their relationship gained strong support from viewers, and the duo eventually finished the season as runners-up. Fans later nicknamed the pair “Nicolandria”, a name that remained widely used after the series ended.

The couple deliberately kept much of their relationship away from social media, explaining in previous interviews that they wanted to enjoy their time together without the expectation of sharing frequent updates with fans. That decision fuelled frequent speculation about their status, but both said they preferred to keep their relationship private.

They also said they wanted to build careers beyond Love Island, focusing on opportunities that extended beyond reality television.

For Carthen and Vansteenberghe, maintaining the relationship reportedly became increasingly difficult as their schedules filled up and the distance between them remained a factor.

Neither Carthen nor Vansteenberghe had publicly addressed the breakup when reports of the split emerged. For now, the relationship appears to have ended on good terms, reflecting the private approach they maintained throughout much of their time together after leaving the villa.

For many viewers, “Nicolandria” was one of the show’s best-known couples. While the romance has ended, both are expected to continue focusing on their individual careers as they move forward separately.

Lady Gaga has reportedly become a mother for the first time, welcoming a baby with her fiancé, Michael Polansky.

The singer and Polansky are said to have welcomed their first child together, with reports emerging on Friday, September 11. The couple were also reportedly seen with their baby in Northern California.

Details surrounding the birth remain private. The baby’s name, sex and exact date of birth have not been disclosed, while Gaga has yet to make a public announcement.

Gaga has spoken about her desire to have children in the past. In a 2025 interview, she described motherhood as her “next starring role” and discussed her hopes for having a family of her own.

Her relationship with Polansky began in 2019, and the pair spent much of the Covid-19 lockdown together in Malibu. Gaga publicly confirmed their engagement in 2024 after introducing Polansky as her fiancé during the Paris Olympics.

Polansky, a Harvard-educated entrepreneur and philanthropist, has worked with the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy and has been involved in charitable projects. He has largely stayed out of the spotlight while supporting Gaga’s career and philanthropic work.

The reported arrival comes after a major period in Gaga’s career. She released her album Mayhem in 2025 and continued with live performances and other professional commitments.

For now, Gaga and Polansky have kept details about their baby private. Unlike many major moments in the singer’s career, the arrival of her first child has not been accompanied by a detailed public announcement.

The couple have not yet shared further details, leaving fans waiting for Gaga’s own confirmation and, potentially, the first glimpse into her new life as a mother.

Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz Beckham attended the Kinéo Awards in Venice on September 5, marking one of their most prominent joint appearances in recent months.

The couple attended the ceremony, held during the Venice Film Festival, where Nicola received the Rising Star Award in recognition of her work as an actress, screenwriter and producer. The Kinéo Awards are separate from the official Venice Film Festival programme.

Nicola’s award comes as she continues to build her film career. She is attached to Prima, a ballet drama in which she stars alongside Faye Dunaway. Dunaway was also honoured at the ceremony, receiving a lifetime achievement award.

For the occasion, Nicola wore a deep violet Balenciaga Haute Couture gown. The floor-length design had a fitted bodice, cut-out details at the waist and a full skirt, giving the dress a distinctly structured shape. She kept her accessories minimal, with her hair and make-up also kept relatively understated.

Brooklyn wore a black-and-white tuxedo, pairing a black jacket and trousers with a white shirt and bow tie. His classic tailoring provided a simple contrast to Nicola’s more distinctive dress.

The couple were photographed together throughout the evening, including several affectionate moments on the red carpet. Their appearance comes as they have faced continued media attention over reports of tensions between Brooklyn and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham.

Nicola referred to Brooklyn during her acceptance speech, thanking him alongside members of her family. She also acknowledged Dunaway, with whom she shares the cast of Prima.

The Venice appearance placed Nicola’s latest professional recognition alongside the couple’s return to a major red-carpet event. With the Rising Star Award adding to her recent film work, the evening gave her an opportunity to draw attention to a career that extends beyond her role as part of the Beckham family.

Tyson Fury Confirms Anthony Joshua Fight at Madison Square Garden

Tyson Fury has announced that his long-awaited fight with Anthony Joshua is set to take place at Madison Square Garden in New York, bringing the proposed all-British heavyweight clash to the United States.

Fury revealed the venue on Instagram, posting promotional artwork of himself and Joshua against the New York skyline and describing the venue and fight as “iconic”. However, Joshua and his promoter, Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing, had not formally confirmed the announcement at the time of the latest reports.

The distinction is important because the location has been one of the main issues in negotiations.

Joshua’s existing agreement reportedly stipulated that the fight should take place in the UK. His camp has also raised concerns about the financial implications of staging the contest in the United States, including the impact of US taxation on Joshua’s earnings.

A move to New York would nevertheless give the fight an international setting and take it to one of boxing’s most recognisable venues. Netflix is involved in the event, while Saudi boxing organiser Turki Alalshikh is also backing the proposed contest.

November 20 has emerged as the target date, although Fury did not include an official date in his announcement.

The fight has taken years to reach this point. Fury and Joshua were close to meeting in 2021, but those plans collapsed after a US court ruled that Fury had to honour his contractual obligation to face Deontay Wilder.

Since then, both fighters have taken very different paths. Joshua has won and lost world titles, including defeats by Oleksandr Usyk and Andy Ruiz Jr., before rebuilding his career. Fury remained unbeaten for years before suffering back-to-back defeats by Usyk in 2024.

Fury subsequently stepped away from boxing before returning to the ring in 2026. Joshua has also returned to action, leaving both men in position for a fight that has remained one of boxing’s biggest unresolved matchups.

Neither fighter arrives at this stage of his career with the record he once had. That makes the proposed contest less about establishing who was the dominant heavyweight of the previous era and more about what each man can produce now.

The stylistic contrast also remains significant. Fury’s size, reach and movement would present Joshua with a different challenge from many of his recent opponents, while Joshua’s punching power gives him the ability to change a fight with a single sequence.

Moving the contest to Madison Square Garden would also give it a different character from a potential Wembley meeting. Instead of staging an all-British heavyweight fight on home soil, the organisers would be taking it to New York, where both fighters would be competing in unfamiliar surroundings.

For Fury, the announcement signals his preference for the venue. For Joshua’s camp, the remaining question is whether the financial and contractual terms allow the move from the UK to the US to go ahead.

That means the next major development will need to come from Joshua’s side.

Fury has put Madison Square Garden on the table and November 20 remains the reported target. If the remaining terms are agreed, one of British boxing’s most persistent unfinished matchups will finally have a confirmed venue and date.
