Simu Liu and Allison Hsu Are Engaged! Here's What to Know About Her $300,000 Oval-Shaped Ring
The proposal, which was planned by The Proposers and Daisy Amodio Events, included an array of spring-hued florals, candles, and scattered rose petals on a balcony at the Shangri-La Paris that overlooked the Eiffel Tower. However, the oval sparkler selected by Liu may have been even more impressive than the romantic backdrop. 'The diamond, set on a simple yellow gold band is likely six carats and could range anywhere from $150,000-$300,000, depending on quality,' Emily Strauss, the founder of EF Collection, a Los Angeles-based fine jewelry brand, exclusively tells BRIDES.

For the proposal, Liu wore a short-sleeved white collared shirt with black pants. In a nod to her new status as a bride, Hsu donned a white midi dress with silver kitten heels. The pair received a number of congratulatory comments from their famous friends after sharing the news. 'AHHHHHHH HOW AMAZING! Sending love to you both,' wrote actress Florence Pugh. 'CONGRATS!!!!,' added Ken Jeong. Other stars, including Robbie Amell, Lance Bass, Olivia Munn, and Priyanka Chopra, also expressed their excitement over the the duo's new status.
Liu started dating Hsu, a digital marketing director for Interscope Records, in 2022. In November of that year, the couple made their red carpet debut, stepping out in holiday-themed sweaters for the premiere of Violent Night. In 2023, the actor revealed more about their relationship, sharing a heartfelt Instagram post in honor of his partner's birthday. 'Happy birthday to the girl who truly does it all,' he wrote in the caption. 'She inspires me in her passion for music (well… one musician specifically), teaches me how to balance a busy and chaotic schedule with grace, and touches me in how she cares for each and every person in her life. Most importantly, she shows me that the people we love are always worth fighting for.'
Over the years, the Barbie star has detailed the strong connection he feels with his partner. In a 2023 interview with People, he said Hsu has given him a feeling of security. 'I feel challenged and loved and cared for, and I feel championed,' he told the magazine. 'I think the best, healthiest relationships are ones where you have each other's back, and I definitely feel like that's the case.'

Woman Swaps Seats With Kid on Plane, Couldn't Predict What He Would Do Next
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A Denver woman says she narrowly avoided a travel nightmare on a United Airlines flight after making a split-second decision to switch seats with a young child—unknowingly sidestepping a midair vomit incident that would leave his father in the "splash zone." The incident was detailed in a video was posted by Chelsea Anderson (@chelseaexplainsitall on TikTok and @Chelsea_Explains on Instagram), a 33-year-old Colorado-based content creator. In the clip, Anderson describes how a simple act of kindness spared her from becoming collateral damage in a turbulent landing. "Sometimes it's a blessing when a person is in your seat on a plane," reads the text overlaid on the video. The incident unfolded on a recent United flight from San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to Denver International Airport (DIA). Anderson originally booked a window seat for the flight. "I actually prefer aisle seats. I had booked the trip last minute, so the window was all that was left," Anderson told Newsweek. When she boarded, she found a young child, around 3 or 4 years old, already seated at the window, with his father in the middle seat.

"It was a win win; the dad and son didn't have to move and I got the aisle," she said. It turned out to be a fortuitous decision. As the flight neared Denver, the weather took a sharp turn. "The flight was a little under three hours, but we only had turbulence when landing," Anderson said. "The weather was so bad that day, we almost had to reroute to Grand Junction [a regional airport]. I wouldn't say it was the worst I'd ever experienced, but it was way worse than a typical bumpy DIA landing." The turbulence during the flight incident in the viral post is not surprising because clear-air turbulence (CAT) was found to have increased over the past 40 years or so, according to a June 2023 study published in Geophysical Research Letters. The study found that the increases were largest over the U.S. and North Atlantic, both of which are busy flight regions. According to the study, "severe-or-greater CAT increased the most, becoming 55 percent more frequent in 2020 than 1979," and CAT is "projected to intensify in response to future climate change." In the case of the TikTok clip, the turbulence shook more than just the cabin. In the video, Anderson says: "I think what happened is that [the child] vomited with such force … that it splashed back on his dad and covered his dad … it was in his eyes, it was in his nose, it was in his mouth, not a pretty sight." While Anderson was spared, the child's father took the brunt of the airborne eruption. Despite the messy situation, Anderson said the dad remained calm and composed throughout. "But the dad stays unbelievably calm," she says in the clip. "He's trying to solve the problem, he's like [telling the child], 'Okay buddy, you threw up. We're gonna try to clean it up. We're not landed yet' … he's so polite and he's so nice to his kid … he's like dad of the freaking year. "And the kid is also very regulated, which tells me that this is how the dad always acts, not just how the dad acts in public," Anderson added. She told Newsweek that several people offered help during the ordeal. "I asked a man across the aisle for a spare barf bag, and he was happy to oblige. A gentleman behind us offered the dad some positive encouragement," she said. "As far as I know only the dad was in the splash zone." She said she was particularly moved by the father's compassion during the chaotic moment. "Obviously it was a stressful situation and I'm sure the dad wanted to make sure no one around them had been impacted, but I was touched with how reassuring the dad was," she said. "He took his son's mind off the situation and made him feel better while also trying to handle the mess, which is hard to do during a bumpy plane landing." As the two walked behind her on the jet bridge after landing, Anderson overheard the dad telling his son that "he was the luckiest dad in the world (not sarcastically!)," she noted in the caption of the video.

This Quick Cake Is the Best Way to Use All Your Berries
Summer is for romance, and this year I had the fling of a lifetime with the Hollywood Farmers' Market. Recipe: Lemon Berry Quick Cake What a pleasure it is to be seduced by fruit in high-summer Los Angeles, when the sun brings a swelter, the sky is cheeky blue and the clouds are as wispy as your hair when you dare let it down, which I did, often, in response to the sky and the berries. Oh, those berries. First, their colors tease you, maybe encourage a primal version of self, eyes darting from blues to jewel reds to purples. Then their plumpness and shape — some pretty as a picture, others ugly as only fruit can get away with — give you something to linger on. All of it signals a possible level of taste, sweetness and texture that makes you hold your breath, and maybe you hold it in for so long that it lets itself out in an unexpected whistle. These things, followed by an insatiable urge to face-plant into a table of them, might come over you as they did me recently. And although I managed most of my urges, the willingness to make a fool of myself in my own daydream, specifically nose-diving into a smattering of neon-sweet Pakistani mulberries, kept me coming back for more every Sunday, my Southern heart getting lost in this overwhelming Eden known as California. I mostly behaved, parsing out my purchases of citrus and plums, but berries are perhaps the most fleeting flirtation. As such, the only proper response is to buy as much as seems fair to the person behind you in line and eat most of them fresh. Then you should take what's left and bake this easy, delightful, toss-some-berries-in olive-oil cake that accentuates how alive it all made you feel. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
