'Bridgerton' star Charithra Chandran steals the spotlight from Andrew Garfield at Wimbeldon
While much of the media focused on Garfield's courtside presence, it was the Bridgerton star's elegant look that captivated viewers and went viral across TikTok and Instagram.
Chandran, attending as a Ralph Lauren ambassador, wore a crisp white shirt paired with a green cashmere sweater, luxe lambskin shorts, and white bellies. She completed the look with a signature Bridgerton-inspired hairstyle that drew admiration online.
As her images started to circulate widely, internet users couldn't help but wonder who she is. Born in Scotland to Indian Tamil parents, she studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford before joining the National Youth Theatre.
Known primarily for playing Edwina Sharma in Bridgerton Season 2, Chandran has also been a part of Alex Rider, Star Wars: Visions, and Dune: Prophecy.
Her upcoming film Christmas Karma, a Bollywood-style reimagining of A Christmas Carol, features an ensemble cast including Eva Longoria and Billy Porter.
Addressing her newfound Wimbledon fame, Chandran humorously stated on TikTok that going viral was "not on my 2025 bingo card.'

Justin Bieber impersonator banned from Las Vegas nightclub after fooling fans
A Justin Bieber impersonator has been banned from a Las Vegas nightclub after successfully convincing fans, staff, and even a DJ that he was the Canadian pop star. The incident took place on Saturday, August 16, at XS Nightclub inside the Wynn Las Vegas. French national Dylan Desclos, 29, entered the venue posing as Bieber and was granted access to VIP areas before reportedly charging a $10,000 bar tab. Later in the evening, he joined DJ Gryffin on stage to perform what appeared to be a surprise rendition of Bieber's 2015 hit 'Sorry.' The packed audience believed Bieber had made an unannounced return to live music, especially given the release of his seventh studio album Swag earlier this year. The album's lead single 'Daisies' recently reached the UK Top 10, lending further credibility to the stunt. DJ Gryffin, whose real name is Daniel Griffith, later admitted on TikTok that he was fooled by Desclos. He explained that the dark setting and loud music made it difficult to recognize that the man was not Bieber. 'So his 'team' said he wanted to perform 'Sorry'… little did I know I was about to be sorry,' Gryffin wrote. Desclos, who is known online as 'Bustin Jieber,' has built a following through viral impersonation stunts and has even crossed paths with Bieber's wife, Hailey, who once said his resemblance was unsettling. Following the incident, XS Nightclub confirmed that Desclos has been banned from the venue. Social media users remain divided, with some calling the act a harmless prank and others labeling it potential fraud or identity theft.

Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet breakup rumors intensify amid busy schedules
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are facing renewed breakup rumors, with insiders suggesting the couple's romance may be little more than a carefully staged 'showmance.' RadarOnline reports that the 28-year-old entrepreneur and the 29-year-old Oscar-nominated actor have not been seen together publicly for over a month, sparking speculation about their relationship status. Although Jenner recently liked one of Chalamet's Instagram posts and joined him briefly in Budapest on August 20, where he is filming Dune: Part Three, sources claim these gestures were orchestrated to give the impression of unity. 'They haven't seen each other for weeks because Timothée's been filming in Budapest, while Kylie has been working in Los Angeles,' one insider told RadarOnline 'They FaceTime and miss each other, but they're leading separate lives, and the end feels inevitable.' Another source added that Chalamet's filming commitments, which will soon take him to Jordan and Abu Dhabi, continue to clash with Jenner's responsibilities as a mother and business owner. Despite having access to private travel, the distance and demanding schedules are reportedly creating strain. Jenner, who built her empire through Kylie Cosmetics, Kylie Skin, and her fashion label Khy, recently celebrated her 28th birthday with her mother Kris Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Justin Bieber. Meanwhile, Chalamet continues to build his career, recently earning a second Academy Award nomination for his performance in A Complete Unknown. The couple began dating in January 2023 and went public later that year. While neither Jenner nor Chalamet has commented on the speculation, sources suggest they are 'reluctant to split' but face mounting challenges.

Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi announce adoption of baby girl
Millie Bobby Brown has announced that she and her husband Jake Bongiovi have welcomed a baby girl through adoption. The Stranger Things star shared the news with her 67 million Instagram followers on August 21, confirming that the couple has officially embarked on a new chapter in their lives. 'This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption,' Brown wrote in her post. 'We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy.' The couple, who tied the knot in 2024, also included the heartfelt phrase, 'And then there were three,' signaling their transition into parenthood. Brown, 21, has previously been open about her hopes to start a family. Just months earlier, she spoke on the SmartLess podcast about wanting a large family and emphasized that she viewed adoption as equally meaningful as having a biological child. 'I don't see having your own child as really any different than adopting,' she said at the time. 'For me, my home is full of love for anyone and anything.' Her husband Jake Bongiovi, the son of musician Jon Bon Jovi, has also expressed excitement about building a family with Brown. The actress, best known for her role as Eleven in Netflix's hit series Stranger Things, described motherhood as a lifelong dream, saying she values the experience of raising a family more than the idea of a perfect wedding. With this announcement, Brown and Bongiovi join a growing list of young celebrity couples choosing adoption as their path to parenthood.
