Netflix's Love Is Blind UK season 2: Which couples are still together?
After far too long away (ok it's been a year, but we're impatient) Love Is Blind UK is finally back for a second season on Netflix. Once again a group of singles are heading into the pods to see if love is truly blind and if they can get engaged to someone without ever seeing them. Though there's been various love triangles, heartbreak and changing of minds, after four episodes in the pod, this season there's now five official couples. But who is still together? Well while the series isn't over quite yet (we've still got six more episodes to enjoy) this is everything we know about the couples so far, and who is crucially still together. The couples in Love Is Blind UK season two are: Relationship status: Still together (we think) 30-year-old Ashleigh and 35-year-old Billy were the first couple to get engaged on this year's Love Is Blind UK. They formed a bond very quickly and discussed everything about each other, including their plans to go to a country music gig together. Billy revealed he had previously been married but that in the end the marriage hadn't worked out and he wanted to make sure if he got married again it would be for good. The couple hit one stumbling block after Billy doubted if the connection could work because of their jobs. He's in the army and she's cabin crew. He'd previously dated someone in cabin crew and found that because of conflicting schedules they found it hard to be together. Ashleigh soothed his worries by saying she could look to do a different style of job if things progressed, and they got back on track. They got on so well that the pair confessed their feelings of love for each other and Billy proposed. So far their time together IRL is going just as well too, but in the teaser for next week's episode it looks like Ashleigh is facing opposition from her family on if the marriage would work. Fingers crossed they could make it work. Relationship status: Still together (we think) Sarover, 29, and Kal, 32, hit things off from the get go and their time in the pods went pretty smoothly for the first few dates. Their one point of possible contention was their different backgrounds. Kal is half-Pakistani and Sarover is Indian. The pair acknowledged how this has previously been an issue for their communities due to India and Pakistan's history. However, after speaking it through, the pair decided it wouldn't be an issue for them and they would pursue dating each other. And they ended up getting engaged. During their time in Cyprus, Sarover expressed her doubts over the relationship, worrying that the other women in the experiment were more of Kal's type than she was, as he previously hadn't dated an Indian woman. Hopefully Kal can do something to reassure of this in the next set of episodes. Relationship status: Still together (we think) Megan, 28, and Kieran, also 28, were two third of one of this season's biggest love triangles. Kieran was also getting to know 28-year-old Sophie. He got on well with both women, but after a few dates with Megan he felt the pair had gotten pretty serious and opened up about their emotions. In contrast he found that Sophie was holding back on opening up, which he was struggling with. Kieran then made it pretty clear who he was more interested in getting to know during one of his dates with Megan when he gifted her a present from Japan. Sophie found out about the gift and was hurt, and saw it as essentially a rejection from Kieran. She then called him out on the gift and said she wasn't interested in getting to know him. Sophie then quit the experiment. Kieran and Megan then continued to get to know each other and Kieran ended up proposing to Megan. So far there's no alarm bells ringing for these two, however, we do see Sophie return in the teaser for next week's episodes so maybe there will be trouble in paradise? Relationship status: Still together (we think) Bardha, 32, and Jed, 31, got on super well from their first date, bonding over their shared family values, and Jed's love of a Sunday roast. They had a number of cute moments, including when Bardha made Jed a word search to confess her feelings of love. They got on so well in fact that Jed ended up proposing. And in Cyprus right now all seems to be going well. However, in the teaser for next week, not everything is going as well as they could hope. They're seen discussing who should take the lead in the relationship and Bardha confessing to the girls the pair have had an argument. Relationship status: Still together (we think) Katisha, 31, and Javen, 28, were the last couple to get engaged and the pair also in another major love triangle. Katisha was also getting to know Demola, 30, and was torn between the two men. She eventually realised that Demola offered her more of what she wanted and so she told him they would be together and she would end things with Javen, specifically telling Demola she wouldn't change her mind. However, after then going on a date with Javen to let him down, the pair got to talking and Javen was open with his feelings more. This caused major confusion for Katisha and the next day she did a 180 and had to tell Demola the truth about her feelings for Javen. Demola was understandably upset and also very confused about Katisha's confession. Katisha and Javen then started dating properly and ended up getting engaged. While they've been having a great time in Cyprus, fellow groom Kal chose to call Katisha out for the way she treated Demola. She was taken aback by their conversation and didn't really know what to say, but clarified it wasn't about Demola doing anything wrong but just she had a change of heart. In the teaser for next week, we see this conversation carry on with Kal bringing up the issue with Javen too, when then begins to question if this could happen a second time. We also see Katisha and Demola meet up in the real world, could her head be turned? Love Is Blind UK season two continues on Netflix

'Little House' Carter Family Actors Talk Final Season
It's been over five decades since Little House on the Prairie first graced television screens, and the beloved drama still inspires generations. While fans usually associate the iconic little house with the Ingalls family, Season 9 introduced the Carters: Sarah, John, Jeb, and Jason. Continuing to celebrate 50 years of Little House, I sat down with Stan Ivar and Pamela Roylance — who played John and Sarah Carter — to talk about stepping into television history, favorite behind-the-scenes memories, and reuniting for the play Love Letters. BuzzFeed: You both entered the show in Season 9, when the Carter family moved into the Ingalls' house. What was that first day on set like, starting as new characters on an established show? Stan Ivar: Our first day was in Simi Valley, on location right in front of the little house. It was a scene with Pam and me facing each other, and then Michael Landon and Melissa Gilbert standing right alongside us. The four of us were standing in a tight circle, and it was when Charles was turning the house over to the Carter family. We're doing our lines, and I'm just not getting them out right; I keep flubbing them. Michael was directing, and he said, "Let's cut. Stan, why don't we go out behind the little house?" So we did, just he and I, out of earshot of everybody else, and he asked me, "What's wrong?" I said, "I'm just nervous. I mean, I'm here with Little Joe from Bonanza, and Half-Pint!" He said, "Look, don't worry. I'll make you a promise. I'll never let you look bad. So leave it up to me, and don't you worry about it. You just do what you do, and I'll tell you if I don't like it, okay?" He took the pressure off me completely. He was a great guy that way, and then we filmed the scene, and it was fine. You know, Michael was from New Jersey, and I'm from Brooklyn. Every now and then, my New York accent would come back. Sometimes when he was directing, and I had just filmed a scene, he would walk up behind me and whisper (in New York accent),"I hear New York!" Pamela Roylance: That first day was really beautiful because it was the four of us, and the whole cast and crew were very gracious and accepting of the new actors. For me, Little House was a dream come true. It was one of the shows that I wanted to do when I left my teaching job in Portland, Oregon. I remember standing in the little house and looking up at the loft for the first time. I was thinking, "I am the only woman on this entire planet who gets to be in these boots, in this prairie dress, and have this be my home for however long it lasts." I love Season 9. I love the edginess of it. We entered an iconic show with the gift of being series regulars. We got to live in the little house and be best friends with Laura and Almanzo. Michael really set it up so the audience would accept us. He gave us two adorable boys who were irresistible. He brought in Shannen Doherty to play Almanzo's niece. Michael put us in a position of being able to be utilized almost every episode that season. It didn't occur to me that people might not like us. It wasn't until recently, meeting fans and doing autograph signings, that I discovered not everybody liked the Carter family. I understand where they are coming from — as a fan, I wouldn't have liked seeing my favorite characters leave either. But I was so happy to be a part of it. The Carters had a few run-ins with my personal favorite character, Mrs. Oleson. Can you share what it was like working with Katherine MacGregor? Stan: Katherine was special. The first day I worked with her, it was on the soundstage, and I was in my dressing room getting ready. All of a sudden, there was a little knock on the door. She didn't wait for anybody to open it; she opened it herself. She peeked in, looked at me, and said, "So you're the new stud in town!" She was generous in a lot of ways. I'd never done a TV show before, but I had worked on stage and in some commercials. I remember our first scene was with Billy Barty [the episode "Little Lou"]. We had a scene together outside the Oleson's store. We were standing around, and during the filming, she looked at me. In the script, she didn't need to look at my character at that time. When it was all over, she said, "Do you know why I looked at you? I looked at you because then the camera has to come to you." She was a pistol, but she was fun to work with, a really, really great gal. Pamela: She was so intelligent and articulate. It was wonderful to just sit and visit with her off-camera when we weren't working. We enjoyed talking about the old days, talking about her husband, and talking about the actors that she had worked with. I remember when we did the scene in the newspaper office. She brought such wonderful energy. As Sarah Carter, you couldn't help but be intimidated by Harriet — you couldn't help but do a better job because of the talent she brought. Katherine and Richard [who portrayed Nels] would give gifts as Nels and Harriet at Christmas time. I still have the 'Nels and Harriet' platter that they gave me, and it's just lovely. I also remember driving in the lot one evening, and Katherine saw me leaving. She saw me in my Nissan Sentra, and she said, "Oh, we'll get you in a Mercedes in no time!" (Pamela laughs) She was kind-hearted, and I saw her years later and just really enjoyed laughing with her. She could seem scary as Harriet Oleson, and like you said, Stan, she was a pistol, but there was this heart under there that was easy to access. There were some incredible child actors in Season 9. David Friedman and Lindsay Kennedy played Jason and Jeb Carter, and Shannen Doherty portrayed Jenny Wilder. What was it like working with them? Pamela: Those three kids were amazing. I didn't get to work with Shannen as much as I did with the boys, but they all really seemed to enjoy each other and get along. It was amazing having the little Carter family, especially for me, the only female around these three male energies. They were hysterically funny and always cracking jokes. Stan had those boys laughing all the time. I don't ever remember us having a difficult time together; it was a joy to be there. I remember doing the scene in "The Last Summer" where I go up to the loft, and Jason is exhausted after working for Ruthy [portrayed by Vera Miles]. In the scene, I reached out and touched his cheek. I just remember the love I felt and how special it was to have that moment with him. It was such genuine love from Pamela to David, not just Sarah Carter to Jason Carter. Stan: Yeah, definitely. They were great kids, and now they're great men. The scene I really remember was with Lindsay, when John and Jeb talk about swimming. I remember when I read the script at home, I said, "My gosh, I hope I don't have to go in the water and show this kid how to swim!" I graduated from the New York State Maritime College, and I went to sea on container ships before I started acting professionally. Even though I sailed all around, I don't know how to swim! When we did that scene, I knew I was going to get phone calls left and right from classmates of mine from the Academy. (Stan laughs) There were never any rough spots; the four of us fit together as a family. We really enjoyed working together. Shannen was great as well. I didn't work that much with her on Little House, but I did do a Beverly Hills, 90210 episode years later, where I saw Shannen again. Stan, I want to hear your thoughts about the episode "Alden's Dilemma," where John and Almanzo have quite an adventure in California. Stan: It was fun! I enjoyed that episode a lot, because we went to San Francisco. It was the first time in Little House that I had been away from Walnut Grove, so it really was cool. With the bath scene, we got to work with Professor Toru Tanaka [professional wrestler], and it was a fun scene to do. I have a tattoo of an anchor on my left shoulder, so they had to cover it for that scene. We got to work with a lot of extras in the Grange convention that John and Almanzo attended. Pamela, I would love to hear about "The Last Summer," where you got to work with the legendary Vera Miles. That episode always makes me cry! Pamela: It's a beautiful episode. When I discovered I got to have two scenes with Vera Miles, I can't even tell you how honored and excited I was. When I first met her, it was in the dressing room, and she was so sweet. She had watched the episode "Sins of the Fathers" that had just aired, and she said, "You really got me last night." I probably floated 10 feet off the floor! Later, we are filming the scene where Sarah goes to Ruthy and apologizes. I'm sitting on the couch with her, and she reaches out and puts her hand on top of mine. It was so tender and touching. In that moment, I immediately logged that as something I was going to cherish for the rest of my life. We proceed to do the scene, and all of a sudden, [director] Maury Dexter calls cut. He says, "I'm hearing the same voice coming out of both of you. I can't tell the difference between your register and your pitch. Let's pick up the energy." I offered to fix it, and he turns to Vera and says, "No, no, let's let the pro do it!" I was humbled, but in the most beautiful way. Afterwards, Vera sent me the most beautiful card, which I still have. As you open it up, there's this delicate lace, and it's handwritten. It's one of the things I still cherish to this day. Finally, you are both reuniting to star in the play Love Letters, directed by Little House casting director Susan McCray. How has it been to reunite? Susan McCray / Via Susan McCray Stan: We haven't seen each other a lot over the years, but we have stayed friends. We have a bond. Pam said it to me a long time ago — we really bonded when we had to interview for NBC. They weren't sure about us newcomers coming onto Little House. Michael called us each at home and said, "You have to go over and do the interview again for the bigwigs at NBC. But I don't care what they say, because I want you, so don't worry." We just clicked, and we always supported each other. It was comfortable working with Pam, and the four of us together as the Carter family. Still to this day, it's comfortable. You know, I don't have a sister; I know Pamela has a brother, and I've met her brother. I love her, and the same with the boys. It's never changed. Pamela: I will second that. We really bonded during the audition process. Stan was just wonderful and made me feel so comfortable. When we did that NBC audition, Stan was the one who said, "Meet me in the park across from the studio, and we'll just rehearse the scene and relax," and that's exactly what we did. There was always this wonderful chemistry between the two of us. It's been wonderful to be able to stay friends and keep in touch, however frequently or infrequently. We always pick up where we left off, and Stan is always loving and kind and generous and funny. Here we are decades later, and we're doing this play where these people meet as children, and then their lives are intertwined. We're the same way; we always come back to each other, and we have that bond. I think that's why Susan saw this was going to work, because it was our real life, and here we are now stepping into it.

Anthro charges $130 for wide-leg white jeans — Amazon does it for $32
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. An unwise person said once, 'Thou shalt not wear white pants before Memorial Day or after Labor Day,' and the entire style community retorted, 'Yeah, okay.' This fashion 'rule' actually originated in the 1800s when the wealthy would summer in coastal towns and return wearing white, so you knew they had just returned from holiday. But now that Anna Wintour has renounced her Condé Nast throne, fashion rules are up in the air. Maybe we can all rethink the rule and wear them whenever we darn well please — especially today, because we found a pair of white jeans that look an awful lot like a pair of $200 designer jeans for $32.28 on sale and come in white, blue, or whatever color floats your boat. They also have the same feel as the Colette pants at Anthro. Advertisement Over 2,000 were purchased last month, and the reviews are extremely favorable. One five-star reviewer said, 'Jeans can be hit or miss for me sometimes when it is an off-brand, but man, I love these! They have just the right amount of stretch, and so comfy. The wide leg at the bottom is so cute and stylish.' Made from stretchy, breathable denim, these jeans strike the sweet spot for comfort and style. The high waist flatters your figure, while the breezy wide leg and 26-inch inseam create a cropped, flared silhouette that's street-savvy and on-trend. Stock up now and wear them through summer to fall. It's crisp, chic, and just begging for a sunny brunch or rooftop soirée. Not a Prime member?
