'AJLT': Here's Where You've Seen Carrie's Hot Gardener (And Tom Hardy Lookalike) Logan Marshall-Green Before
It's a tough time being a fan of And Just Like That... and its leading lady, Carrie Bradshaw. So far this season we've had that hand lick, a bonnet and in episode two, we had to withstand a plague of rats. But thankfully, Carrie finally came up with the goods hiring landscape architect to the stars, Adam Gardens, played by Logan Marshall-Green. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE After her romance novel writing is interrupted by the aforementioned rats in the beautiful garden of her Gramercy home (we're completely obsessed - the wisteria!), in her determination to look underneath the perfection, Carrie hires a string of professionals to try and sort her garden (clearly the gardening bloom boom hasn't reached New York's great and good). In comes Adam, played by Marshall-Green. And as she magicked him straight off her own page, he enters by saving Carrie's cat, Shoe. It seems viewers were thrilled to see him too, with fans swooning all over social media. In the US, where viewers can see the latest AJLT episode at a more sociable hour than the UK's 2.05 am drop, Marshall-Green was the top trending topic on Google for viewers of the show. And with there being more pictures of Adam online - and that garden a long way from done - it looks like the actor could be a recurring cast member in season three. So where have you seen the actor before? Here's what you need to know. Marshall-Green has starred in a number of TV shows and films across his varied career, but chances are you may remember him from way back, when he starred in The O.C. The actor starred as Trey Atwood, Ryan's big brother in nine episodes, after he replaced another actor. He was a crucial part in the show, when he attacked Marisa in season two, before she shot him at the end of the series. He had a six-episode role in 24, and was in series including Damnation, The Defeated and Big Sky. He's also appeared in big-budget films like Carry-On, Spider-Man: Homecoming and Prometheus. While the likeness isn't maybe as obvious in his beared Adam Gardens guise, throughout his career, people have compared him to Brit actor Tom Hardy, with some claiming it's hard to tell them apart. And while, no, he's not related to Hardy, he does have a twin brother - Taylor Marshall-Green. The likeness between Marshall-Green and Hardy is so commonplace, that he has previously spoken about it. 'I'd be honoured to be in the same sentence as Tom Hardy,' he's told ELLE previously. 'I've been a twin since the day I was born - fraternal, but we look a lot alike - so I've already been mixed up with another man my entire life.'

What's next for influencer Livvy Dunne after college gymnastics career? 'Everything,' she says
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- With her college gymnastics days behind her, influencer and Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Livvy Dunne is moving on with life — but that doesn't mean she'll be far from the public eye. Dunne, who has more than 13 million followers on social media, created a multimillion-dollar personal brand while competing as a gymnast at LSU. Now she's trying to help other female athletes do the same, helping to educate them about name, image and likeness deals and personal branding. 'I'm going to miss gymnastics so much because it has been a part of me for almost 20 years,' Dunne told The Associated Press at AthleteCon, where she had a speaking engagement. 'What's next? Everything. I want to do all of the things that I couldn't do while I was a gymnast' because of the time constraints of being a student-athlete. 'So there are some really cool opportunities — stay tuned,' she added. Dunne didn't disclose any details, but it's clear she plans to maintain her personal brand, which she developed along with the help of older sister and manager Julz Dunne. AthleteCon CEO Sam Green, who has helped land more than 1,000 NIL deals, invited the Dunne sisters to speak to college athletes as part of a two-day seminar. Athletes met with representatives from social media platforms including TikTok, Snapchat and Meta, created live content and competed for NIL deals. They learned how to turn a creative idea into a brand. More than 100 athletes attended, with another 150 turned away because of space constraints. Green's company slogan is 'all athletes are creators.' 'I'm really big on giving athletes the tools to monetize their brand,' Green said. Few, if any, have done that better than Livvy Dunne. She helped the Tigers to the 2024 national championship as a junior before missing this past season because of an injury. But she was better known on social media, where she amassed more than 8 million followers on TikTok and 5.3 million on Instagram before leaving LSU. Advertisers took notice. She was the highest-paid female college athlete across all sports during her time with the Tigers, earning more than $4.1 million, according to On3. She worked with brands like Nautica, Crocs and Sports Illustrated, where she recently did a split on the catwalk on a 'triple dare.' Her boyfriend is Pittsburgh Pirates star pitcher Paul Skenes, who played baseball at LSU. 'She's it,' Green said. 'She's the road map. She's the blueprint and she was the first to do it. The Dunnes are so innovative and they have done it with genuine intent. Livvy is the definition of NIL, in my opinion, at least true NIL and what it was meant to be from the start.' Dunne said navigating the ever-changing world of NIL was like living in the wild West. 'I learned that you don't have to do one thing and be great at that one thing,' Dunne said. 'You can do multiple different things and find success in tons of different areas.' But there were trying times as she balanced classes, competition and the constant demand for multiple daily social media posts. She remembers walking into LSU gymnastics coach Jay Clark's office in tears because of stress about her schedule. She fought through it and is glad she did. 'I hope people here take away that you are more than your sport and everybody deserves to capitalize on their name, image and likeness,' Dunne said. 'Curiosity is key. Ask questions, network, and just create because, who knows, the sky is the limit. It got me to where I am today. Don't just consume, but create. 'Keep posting,' she added. 'The audience is there. People are interested. They want to see what you have to offer. Everyone's story is different and has to be told.'
