What happens in And Just Like That...: Season 2, Episode 6 – ‘Bomb Cyclone'?
At a meeting with her book agent, Carrie learns she's been booked for 'Widow Con' and comes face-to-face with her old writing partner Karen Moore, who now goes by Karrie and is working at the convention. Karrie's recollection of working with Carrie is vastly different to our leading lady's as well, which is awkward. Having been booked for the main speaking spot, Carrie ropes in a reluctant Che to help her prepare.
During a catch up with the girls the discussion turns to past relationships. Carrie's past romance with Aidan comes up leaving her wondering what he's up to. Curiosity takes over and when Carrie gets home she drafts an email to Aidan – but doesn't send it.
With New York blanketed in snow, a reluctant-to-leave-the-house Che tries to persuade Carrie to cancel her attendance at Widow Con. But not wanting to let Karrie down, Carrie cracks on.
Carrie asks Che for a joke she can tell on stage at Widow Con to get the crowd to warm up to her, but it falls flat. Despite this Carrie receives a resounding round of applause from the audience as she opens up on her own experience of losing Big.
Feeling galvanised after her time at WidowCon, Carrie decides to take a big step…and sends that email to Aidan.
Charlotte
Rock's Ralph Lauren ad is featured in the weekend papers, leaving Charlotte very excited and Lily feeling left out. However, she catches Charlotte and Harry's attention quickly when she announces she's ready to lose her virginity – and will do so soon.
However, when the snowstorm brings the plans to lose her virginity forward, an emotional Charlotte is unsure of how to act – wanting to be both supportive but protective of her daughter. When she receives a panicked phone call from Lily telling her Blake has forgotten to buy condoms, Charlotte feels she has no choice but to head out in the snow to buy some for her. With all the pharmacies closed, Charlotte is left exploring the city in the snow to find somewhere that's open, eventually delivering them across the city to a grateful Lily.
Miranda
With Che reeling from their failed TV sitcom, they turn to recording video messages for fans on Cameo to make some money. When Miranda encourages them to leave the house, Che snaps at her.
Over a girl's dinner, Nya shares how she's struggling to cut ties with her ex-husband, which raises the question of when Miranda and Steve will discuss divorce.
When Che agrees to join Carrie at Widow Con, they find themselves moved by listening to the experiences of those in attendance, gaining some much-needed perspective on their own life.
At her house in Brooklyn, Steve and Miranda come face-to-face and soon get into an argument about their next steps. He declares he has no plans to move out of the home that he partially built, prompting a vicious but ultimately needed emotional conversation between the pair for them to air their feelings.
Later that evening, Miranda finds an empty condom wrapper in her and Steve's bedroom and realises that Steve has, despite what everyone else told her, moved on. Frustrated at him and realising their marriage is over, she decides to start the divorce process.
Miranda then heads over to Che's flat, where she faces another brutally honest conversation. With both realising their strained relationship won't improve anytime soon, they decide it's time to end things. With two relationships now at a complete end, what lies next for Miranda?

Trump to visit Kennedy Center after hinting at name change as honors announced
Update: Date: 2025-08-13T09:47:20.000Z Title: Trump at Kennedy Center same day that honors are announced Content: Hello and welcome to the US politics live blog. My name is Tom Ambrose and I will be bringing you all the latest news. We start with the news that Donald Trump will be visiting the Kennedy Center on Wednesday, the same day that the recipients of this year's honors are announced. Trump avoided the Kennedy Center Honors during his first term after artists said they would not attend out of protest. This year, he has taken over as the Kennedy Center's new chairman and fired the board of trustees, which he replaced with loyalists. In a Truth Social post Tuesday, Trump teased a name change for the performing arts center and said it would be restored to its former glory, AP reported. 'GREAT Nominees for the TRUMP/KENNEDY CENTER, whoops, I mean, KENNEDY CENTER, AWARDS,' Trump wrote. He said work was being done on the site that would be 'bringing it back to the absolute TOP LEVEL of luxury, glamour, and entertainment.' 'It had fallen on hard times, physically, BUT WILL SOON BE MAKING A MAJOR COMEBACK!!!' he wrote. It is unclear how this year's batch of honorees were chosen, though Trump had indicated he wanted a more active role. Historically, a bipartisan advisory committee selects the recipients, who over the years have ranged from George Balanchine and Tom Hanks to Aretha Franklin and Stephen Sondheim. A message sent to the Kennedy Center press office asking how this year's honorees were selected wasn't returned Tuesday. The Kennedy Center did post this on social media, however: 'Coming Soon ... A country music icon, an Englishman, a New York City Rock band, a dance Queen and a multi-billion dollar Actor walk into the Kennedy Center Opera House ...' In other developments: The DC national guard began deploying on the city's streets Tuesday night, a day after Trump ordered their arrival and took control of the city's police force, calling Washington DC a 'lawless' city, despite official crime statistics saying otherwise. A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to immediately improve conditions at a New York City immigration holding facility, acting on mounting complaints from detainees that the cells are overcrowded, unsanitary and inhumane. The Texas Senate approved a GOP-drawn congressional map that would give Republicans five more House seats ahead of the 2026 midterms. But since House Democrats continue to break quorum, the legislation isn't going anywhere. Speaker Dustin Burrows said the House will adjourn until Friday, at which point the legislature will attempt to reach quorum one more time. President Trump is due to speak with European leaders, including Volodymyr Zelenskyy, today ahead of Friday's meeting with Russian president Vladimir Putin. Trump's press secretary Karoline Leavitt characterised Friday's meeting between Trump and Putin as a 'listening exercise' for the president, confirming that Zelenskyy would not be in attendance, but the president has hopes for a trilateral meeting in the future. For more on the upcoming meeting, follow our Europe live blog here. California governor Gavin Newsom says the state will draw new electoral maps after Trump 'missed' a deadline on Tuesday night in an ongoing redistricting battle between Democratic and Republican states. The Trump administration is evidently extending its control of cultural representation at the Smithsonian, the world's largest museum and research complex. In a letter posted on the White House website, the administration told the Smithsonian that it plans a wide review of exhibitions, materials and operations ahead of the US's 250th anniversary celebrations in 2026.

Watch the moment Brooklyn Beckham ‘proposes' to Nicola Peltz before vow renewal as fans demand he drops the family name
BROOKLYN Bekcham was seen in a video proposing to Nicola Peltz before their vow renewal, and fans have demanded he drops the family name. None of the Beckhams were invited to the lavish ceremony on August 2 — presided over by Nicola's billionaire dad Nelson — and only read about it on an American website. 5 5 5 Brooklyn's original wedding with Nicola took place on Nelson's estate in Palm Beach, Florida, with Brooklyn's sister Harper among the bridesmaids, and he proposed to Nicola in 2020 by a lake. But ahead of their vow renewal, which has been branded a 'gratuitous display of wealth,' Brooklyn proposed to his wife for a second time. Nicola shared a romantic clip of Brooklyn getting down on one knee in a white t-shirt and jeans in a summer house by a lake. She captioned the video: 'We showed our friends how he proposed,' and Nicola could be seen in a baggy t-shirt looking delighted at her husband's romantic gesture. But fans were left outraged by the post, as they demand they drop the Beckham surname. One person wrote: 'I don't understand why you have the Beckham name when you hate them so much.' A second penned: 'Drop the Beckham name if you're going to ignore them and snub them from everything.' Someone else questioned: 'Why have you kept the Beckham surname?' A source close to the Beckhams says the family has questioned Brooklyn's need to renew his vows after just three years. Brooklyn Beckham & Nicola Peltz 'renew wedding vows' after 3 years of marriage One friend said: 'They would understand if it was, say, 10 years down the line - maybe even five. But three?! It seems like quite a gratuitous display of obscene wealth. "Also, if Brooklyn wanted to create a really cute memory, why couldn't he have just let his family know their plans first? 'To be honest, although there have been moments of rapprochement, this hostility dates back to 2021, around six months before the original wedding. "The dynamics have just never really gelled. The Beckham Family Feud April 2022: Brooklyn marries Nicola Peltz. Wedding Dress Controversy: Rumours begin circulating that there's tension between Nicola and Victoria Beckham after Nicola chooses not to wear a Victoria Beckham -designed wedding gown. Nicola later clarifies in August 2022 (and again in March 2023) that Victoria's atelier couldn't make the dress in time, but reports in May 2025 suggest Victoria actually changed her mind about making the dress. Post-Wedding (2022 onwards): Minimal interaction between Nicola and Victoria on social media, and noticeable absence of Nicola at key Beckham family events. Alleged Wedding "Hijack": In May 2025, a source claimed Victoria "ruined" part of the wedding by allegedly hijacking a dance with Marc Anthony, which was meant for Brooklyn and Nicola. Nicola reportedly ran from the room crying. March 2025: A resurfaced TikTok of Romeo and Cruz mimicking a "baby voice" (which fans associate with Nicola) sparks speculation of sibling shade. April 2025: Brooklyn and Nicola are reportedly absent from Victoria Beckham's 51st birthday celebrations in Miami and her Paris Fashion Week show. May 2025: David Beckham's 50th Birthday Snub: Brooklyn and Nicola are notably absent from David Beckham's 50th birthday celebrations in London, despite being invited. Reports suggest their absence was due to Brooklyn not wanting to be in the same room as Kim Turnbull, the girlfriend of Romeo who had previously been reported to have been dating Brooklyn, who David allegedly opted to have at the party over Nicola. Rumours emerge of a falling out between Brooklyn and his younger brother Romeo, reportedly due to Romeo's new girlfriend, DJ Kim Turnbull, who allegedly had a past connection with Brooklyn. Reports surface that the Beckham parents are "hurt and disappointed" that Brooklyn is "playing no part in family life." Sources claim that tensions between Brooklyn and Nicola and his parents are "definitely not beyond repair." June 2025: Brooklyn and Nicola reportedly enlist a "crisis team" similar to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for "reputation management" due to the growing media scrutiny. Cruz Beckham posts cryptic lyrics on Instagram that some interpret as a swipe at Brooklyn. July 2025: Reports indicate David and Victoria are "desperate" to reconcile with Brooklyn. Brooklyn publicly wishes his sister Harper a happy 14th birthday on Instagram, tagging Nicola, which is seen as a potential "olive branch" and a rare public message to his family amid the rumored rift. Brooklyn UNFOLLOWS his brothers Romeo and Cruz just 24 hours after his birthday message to Harper. Nicola quickly follows suit and also ditches the Beckham bros from her Instagram following. Romeo and Cruz are now also no longer following Brooklyn. 'Of course David and Victoria want Brooklyn to be happy and clearly he is wildly in love still, but a lot of people have been hurt. "It is a very sad situation and everyone fears there is no way back now. It is done.' It was also revealed that even Brooklyn's grandparents were excluded from the special day - despite their close relationship. This week, a source said: 'This was the final kick in the teeth for David and Victoria. 'Seeing Nelson having such a pivotal role at the ceremony was heartbreaking for David especially. "Not one member of the 30-plus extended family knew about the wedding, or were invited. 'His grandparents are devastated too as Brooklyn has always been so close to them. 'It feels cruel and spiteful. This is no longer a game. It has gone beyond all that. 'This is a family who feel they have lost their precious boy - and see no way back. "Honestly, they are now questioning why he even wants to keep the 'Beckham' surname - will he revert to Peltz? August 2nd 2025 - is this the day Brooklyn formally declared himself no longer a part of the Beckham family? 'It certainly feels like it.' 5
