‘Mother of All Models,' 60, Stuns on Roman Holiday After Health Setbacks
Supermodel Linda Evangelista is having a Roman holiday this summer. The stunning '80s and '90s icon, who famously coined the phrase "We don't wake up for less than $10,000 a day," shared photos from her Italian getaway — including rare snaps of her 18-year-old son, Augustin James, whom she shares with Kering CEO François-Henri Pinault. The famous beauty seems to have put past health struggles behind her as she enjoys her summer abroad.
Evangelista has been candid about her medical history, including two breast cancer diagnoses — the first in 2018 and the second in 2022. After undergoing a bilateral mastectomy, additional surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, the Canadian model told the Wall Street Journal in 2023 that her prognosis is "good."In 2022, Evangelista also spoke publicly about a five-year hiatus from the spotlight, during which she says CoolSculpting — an FDA-approved fat-freezing procedure — left her "permanently deformed" and "brutally disfigured." In July 2022, she revealed on Instagram that she had settled with the parent company behind CoolSculpting.
Fans quickly filled the comments section, with one referring to Evangelista as the "mother of all models" and praising her enduring beauty."You are so beautiful, Linda," wrote one fan. Another added, "You're still my favorite supermodel."
"Beautiful and inspiring as always," said one commenter, capturing the sentiments of many.

Vanessa Feltz shares the truth behind Naga Munchetty's 'diva-like behaviour' amid 'bullying' probe
Vanessa Feltz has spoken out over claims Naga Munchetty has been 'rude' to younger members of staff. In June, the BBC Breakfast presenter, 50, was accused of 'bullying' a female colleague and making an off-air sex joke. Last week, it was alleged that Munchetty scolded an intern for the way they spread Marmite on her toast at the BBC's flagship morning show. Feltz has now defended the fellow TV journalist and urged critics to understand the pressures of live television. 'Before judging Naga for any diva-like behaviour, consider the demands of live early morning TV. There's no time for politeness,' the Celebs Go Dating star wrote in her Daily Express column. 'With no ad breaks, BBC presenters, who have been up since 3am, have to swallow snacks at speed while producers bark directions in their earpieces and hair and makeup staff descend to touch-up.' Feltz went on: 'A swift, mildly rattled 'could you go easy on the Marmite?' might sound hostile to an inexperienced intern, but the chances are it's not meant to be anything but short sharp communication from someone harangued and hungry.' Last week, The Sun claimed Munchetty was irate with an intern over how they prepared her toast. A source added to the Daily Mail: 'She's an absolute nightmare. She has a reputation for going at young members of staff and making them out to be fools.' The Standard has contacted Munchetty's representative for comment. The BBC said: 'While we do not comment on individual cases, we take all complaints about conduct at work extremely seriously.' Munchetty usually presents BBC Breakfast alongside co-star Charlie Stayt, 63, every Thursday to Saturday, while Jon Kay, 55, and Sally Nugent, 54, host at the beginning of the week. Munchetty and Stayt are being assessed and are under review after concerns were raised about their behaviour behind the scenes, according to a report from The Sun last week. An external HR adviser from consultancy firm PwC has reportedly been working with the BBC to examine workplace culture on the long-running programme. A source told the outlet: 'A number of people have come forward to share their experiences with Charlie, so the BBC has officially moved to place the complaints under review. 'Charlie and Naga will be assessed separately.' Staff are said to have raised concerns about 'rudeness', 'bullying', and conduct that allegedly undermined team members. It comes after BBC Breakfast editor Richard Frediani stepped away from his role for an extended period following a series of bullying allegations. Munchetty, who joined the show in 2014, has reportedly been spoken to by bosses over two separate incidents in a three-year period. The Radio 5 Live presenter was allegedly spoken to by senior BBC figures after reportedly making a sex-related remark during her radio show. It's claimed she used a crude slang term and asked a colleague whether they had ever performed the act in question. Last month, it was reported that she is weighing up her future at the BBC, despite receiving a £10,000 pay rise and remaining one of the broadcaster's top-paid stars. It was alleged that she is said to be considering a move to rival station LBC due to the recent alleged internal controversies. Solve the daily Crossword

Jennifer Aniston's Romance With ‘Sexy' Jim Curtis Is ‘Moving Pretty Fast': Friend
Jennifer Aniston's romance with Jim Curtis is already getting hot and heavy. "It's new, but things are moving pretty fast," a close friend of the actress exclusively tells Us Weekly. "They just get along so well." It helps that Curtis, 49, is into health and fitness like Aniston, 56, who told in April that she is "the strongest" and "the most in shape" that she has "ever been" in her life. "She thinks he is sexy and takes care of his body. That's important to her," the friend shares. "She works out daily and takes such good care of her body. It's great he does too." Inside Jennifer Aniston's 'Serious' Romance With Jim Curtis — And What They've 'Bonded Over' After Aniston and Curtis were photographed together for the first time over the 4th of July weekend, Us broke the news that they are officially dating. "Jen is so happy right now, and Jim is part of the reason," the pal says. "He's like a breath of fresh air, and all her close friends are 1,000 percent loving them together." While Curtis is not an A-list celebrity like Aniston's exes, who include Brad Pitt, John Mayer and Justin Theroux, the hypnotist is no stranger to Hollywood, having worked with Chrissy Teigen, Miranda Kerr and Julianne Hough, among other stars, in the past. "Jim is so cool, laid-back and smart and doesn't try to compete with Jen in any way," the friend tells Us. "He comes from his own world and is successful, so he fits in Jen's world well." Jennifer Aniston's Dating History: A Complete Timeline of Her Exes and Flings Jason Bateman, who has been close with Aniston for years and worked with her on films including 2010's The Switch and 2011's Horrible Bosses, is particularly fond of Curtis after joining the new couple on their PDA-filled holiday vacation to Mallorca, Spain. "Jason Bateman and his wife [Amanda Anka] love him," the pal reveals. "Jim and Jason are friends, and Jim thinks Jason is hilarious." Like Bateman, Aniston is "constantly making [Curtis] laugh," according to the confidant, who says the Friends alum "can relax around Jim and be herself." "Jim is no drama and a grounded guy who has his life together. It is casual, but she really likes him and is very open to a serious thing," the friend tells Us. "We think he may be the perfect guy for her. She deserves all the happiness and love from a good guy, and so far he is checking all the boxes." Everything Jennifer Aniston Has Said About Love, Relationships, Heartbreak and More Us Weekly has reached out to Aniston's rep, Bateman's rep and Curtis for comment. Multiple sources previously told Us that mutual friends introduced the Morning Show star and the life coach, who started out as friends themselves before their relationship turned romantic. Curtis is the first person Aniston has publicly dated since her 2017 split from Theroux, 53, whom she married in 2015. Solve the daily Crossword
