The shady way Adrian from MAFS Australia responded to ex Awhina's relationship with Billy
Married At First Sight Australia might be over, but drama from the most recent season still lingers. For those who followed series nine, you'll remember Adrian Araouzo and Awhina Rutene were initially paired together, as were Billy Belcher and Sierah Swepstone. However, you'll also know that neither relationship lasted, and both couples went their separate ways. (Billy felt betrayed when Sierah attended an evening meal with Adrian and fellow MAFS contestant Tony Mojanovski behind his back, while Awhina and Adrian had a commitment ceremony, but broke up before their Final Vows.) And to ramp up the drama even more, MAFS sleuths will be aware of the dating rumours between Awhina and Billy that have been flying around for months. While we can now report that the pair are official, after claiming they were "just friends" the entire time, Adrian has since entered the chat with a shady response to the relationship. Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle, he said he had "no clue" what Billy and Awhina are doing. But if their relationship is serious, "good luck to them." Adrian then said he "hopes it's legit," because otherwise it would be "a bit embarrassing to act like a couple just for likes and attention." He continued: "I don't understand all these games certain couples are playing. If you're with someone and happy, put it out to the world [and] be proud you guys are together. Otherwise, keep it private until it's official." He then followed up by wishing them both "nothing but happiness and a healthy, successful relationship." As it stands, Awhina and Billy look super loved up. And from their joint Instagram official post, they seem to be in it for the long haul. On Friday, they shared a carousel of some recent moments, from a sweet mirror selfie to a romantic date night. The pair captioned the post: "I'll keep this one 🤭." Err, cute.

Aryna Sabalenka Has New Boyfriend After Ex Partner's Sudden Death
Tennis pro Aryna Sabalenka has a new boyfriend, and they appear to be happy together more than a year after her ex-partner's sudden death. Her new boyfriend is Georgios Frangulis, a Brazilian-raised entrepreneur with a successful açaí business. They are very open about their romance, posting frequently about each other on social media. Advertisement Sabalenka lost to Coco Gauff in the French Open final on June 7. The final was marred by emotional outburst from Sabalenka, who burst into tears from the podium, calling her play "terrible." Sabalenka's ex-boyfriend Konstantin Koltsov died tragically in 2024. However, she appears to have found a happy relationship with Frangulis in the wake of that tragedy. "She's also spoken about how happy she is with her current boyfriend, Georgios Frangulis. The Brazilian owner of brand Oakberry and the tennis star went Instagram official in May of 2024 ... and he's been seen at her matches ever since," according to USA Today. Advertisement In September 2024, Sabalenka posted a photo showing her kissing Frangulis and wrote, "Happy birthday meu amor, I'm so lucky to have you by my side. Your support is priceless 🦖🐒❤️💜❤️" Sabalenka has shared other photos of them together on Instagram, writing in May, "My dinner date." She also posted a photo showing them together in a garden four days before the French Open final. According to AS, Frangulis' family has Greek heritage, and he has lived in the U.S. sine 2014, in Miami and Venice Beach. He was raised in Brazil, the site reported. The tennis pro has explained how important Frangulis was to her as she weathered tragedy. Advertisement Sabalenka told People: 'There was a really tough period where I was really happy to have him by my side, always cheering me up, always making sure that we are doing some fun stuff." Frangulis built a successful business around healthy food. He told Forbes how he "expanded his business to 34 countries in seven years and produced 7,000 tons of açaí sorbet." He was married before, according to that story, which also revealed he previously had thyroid cancer. Frangulis's wife was named Isabella "Beh" Armentano, but it's unclear when they broke up, according to Town and Country. He started out in law school and real estate before seeing a market in açaí. Advertisement "I observed the natural demand for fast food, but also many people looking for healthy food. And I realized the little supply of fast and healthy eating. Something with pattern, with brand, with branding. The acai was beginning to gain traction in California. The cooler juice houses began to offer açaí," he told Forbes in 2023. He has posted about Sabalenka on Instagram. According to People, Koltsov, her ex-boyfriend, died by suicide in March 2024 while in Florida "to support Sabalenka's appearance at the Miami Open," although they were no longer dating at that time. Sky News reported that it's believed he jumped from a hotel balcony. Advertisement They kept their relationship private, People reported, noting that Koltsov was a former ice hockey player. Sabalenka, who said she was heartbroken by her ex-boyfriend's death, indicated later that she wished she had taken a break after he died. 'Looking back I definitely think that I should have just stopped and just separated myself from tennis, just have a little break, recharge and start things over again," she said, according to The Independent. In 2019, Sabalenka also dealt with the death of her dad, who passed away at age 43.

Julianne Hough Shares Intimate Video of Her 'Egg-Freezing Journey': 'Navigating Fertility Is Never Simple'
Julianne Hough shared a video on Instagram revealing that she's undergoing her third round of egg freezing "Here we go. All in the name of having a little baby," the Dancing with the Stars alum said in the clip Hough described the process as "one of the most vulnerable experiences… physically, emotionally, and for sure hormonally"Julianne Hough is sharing her journey to becoming a mother one day. The Dancing with the Stars alum revealed that she was freezing her eggs in a video offering an intimate look at the process, which she shared on her Instagram on Saturday, June 7. 'Here we go,' Hough said in the video that she dubbed her "egg freezing journey," noting it was 'all in the name of having a little baby.' The video takes viewers through the course of 10 days, where Hough is seen smiling and dancing while she injects herself. She is also seen going to doctor's appointments. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Julianne Hough (@juleshough) By day eight, she noted that her 'hormones were kicking in. My boobs are bigger. Everything is happening.' is now available in the Apple App Store! Download it now for the most binge-worthy celeb content, exclusive video clips, astrology updates and more! Hough went into greater detail in a lengthy caption accompanying the video, thanking Dr. Carolyn Alexander and her team at Southeast Crescent Regional Commission, which specializes in fertility care and helping to create families, according to its website. 'Navigating fertility is never simple, especially with endometriosis and my own personal timeline and hopes around having children… but with them, I've always felt safe, supported and fully informed,' she wrote, adding that this was now her third round of egg freezing.'I know it's not always the most comfortable thing to talk about, let alone share publicly. But I've realized how important it is to open up about these things,' she continued. 'Women all over the world are quietly walking into doctors' offices, making huge, brave decisions about their bodies and their futures.' Hough described the process as "one of the most vulnerable experiences… physically, emotionally, and for sure hormonally." She further reflected on why she wanted to be so transparent with her fans. 'If sharing just a small piece of my journey helps someone feel less alone, or inspires them to ask questions and explore what's right for them, then I feel like it's worth it,' she wrote. In a 2020 interview with Women's Health, Hough shared that her endometriosis — which is a reproductive condition in which uterine tissue grows outside of the uterus, causing cramping and chronic pain — made her want to freeze her eggs. 'I think the healthier I am from the inside out — as far as my beliefs, my energy, what I'm putting into my body — the better prepared I'll be when the time comes,' she said at the time, when she was married to Brooks Laich. 'We never actually tried to get pregnant. It was more of a precautionary measure: Let's do our due diligence for the future by freezing eggs.' Hough ended her June 7 post by once again thanking her medical team for their unwavering care. 'I truly couldn't be more grateful for this team who's been with me since my second endometriosis laparoscopy surgery back in 2017… they've been like family ever since 💛,' she wrote.
