Holland Taylor, 82, and longtime partner Sarah Paulson, 50, celebrate pal's Emmy nomination at dinner in Beverly Hills
The Two And A Half Men star, 82, and American Horror Story actress, 50, first met in 2005, but didn't begin dating until a decade later after they reconnected over social media.
And they looked as smitten as ever as they attended a dinner celebrating their friend Katherine LaNasas's Best Supporting Actress Emmy nomination for her role in The Pitt.
The event, which took place at Steak48 in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, was attended by a host of Katherine's friends, as well as her The Pitt co-stars and creative team.
For the evening, Holland donned a chic white silk shirt paired with a neck tie, while Sarah opted for a sleek black suit.
Despite their long-term romance, the couple, who have a 32-year age gap, have no plans to marry anytime soon.
In August, Holland revealed why she and Sarah have no plans to marry after nine years of dating.
While appearing on Andy Cohen 's SiriusXM show, the Emmy Award winner made a rare remark about her relationship.
She explained why she doesn't believe they will ever tie the knot.
'I don't think [we'll get married],' Taylor, who typically keeps her love life out of the spotlight, said. 'No. We've never talked about it with any interest.'
The queer icon, best known for portraying Judge Roberta Kittleson on ABC's The Practice, noted that a legal contract just 'doesn't seem to mean to [them] what it means to a lot of people.'
She went on to pointed out that they wanted to walk down the aisle than they 'would.'
After Andy said he loves how in love they seem, Holland gushed that they 'do have a wonderful resonance.'
'We are very interested in the same kinds of things, and yet we share big differences,' the star added.
Still Holland said their age gap does cause some 'big generational' differences that 'worry' her, at times.
'But what can I do?' the performer asked. 'A lot of the things that she is going through that are very emotionally important to her right now, I went through 30 years ago or 40 years ago.'
Neither Holland or Sarah have ever been married. Previously, Sarah was engaged to playwright Tracy Letts.
In an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen in January 2019, Sarah admitted Holland sneaked into her DMs after they began to follow each other on Twitter.
She gushed about her partner in September on the Dear Chelsea podcast with comedian Chelsea Handler, 50.
Sarah said: 'I think she's the smartest, wisest, funniest, most extraordinary person I've ever met. So I can't imagine not being with her. I just can't.'
'I just feel very, very lucky to be around someone so incredibly witty and funny and smart and, I think, incredibly sexy.'
'I find her to be the most beautiful woman. I tell her all the time, like, she's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen and she always will be.'

Influencer who was part of a death hoax at 14 challenges OnlyFans sensation Sophie Rain to $60 million boxing match
Controversial influencer Lil Tay has challenged OnlyFans star Sophie Rain to a $60 million boxing match a week after she made her debut on the adult content platform. Lil Tay, 18, shared a fiery post targeting the 20-year-old Bop House founder and OnlyFans top earner on Tuesday. 'Sophie Rain, $60 million is what I have for you to fight me in a boxing match,' Lil Tay, who became an internet sensation when she was just nine years old, said in the clip shared with her 5.8 million Instagram followers. 'You're about that money, right? Well this is more money than you've ever made off that crusty, dusty, boomer a** life. So put on the gloves and fight me.' Lil Tay went on to say this prospective fight would be a chance for Rain to meet her 'idol in the ring.' 'And don't pretend you're above it all just because you're scared I'm gonna beat the brakes off of you,' she rambled on. 'I'm ready for you. I've been training, I've been doing spicy boxing training sessions, workouts .' She added she was going to tell her manager and lawyers to draft up a contract about getting her and Rain in the ring. View this post on Instagram A post shared by LIL TAY (@liltay) Lil Tay captioned the post, stating that Rain has '24 hours to reply.' Rain does not appear to have responded to the proposition yet. The self-proclaimed 'youngest flexer of the century' issued this message to Rain after Tay tore the internet to shreds by launching an OnlyFans on her 18th birthday. Within the first three hours of her adult content page being active, she earned more than $1 million from subscribers. Many of her fans were unsettled by this development, as she has been in the spotlight since she was a little girl. Lil Tay was infamously involved in a death hoax scandal when she was just 14 years old. Around June 2018, Lil Tay took an abrupt social media hiatus that lasted about five years. In August 2023, Lil Tay, whose real name is Claire Hope, and her brother Jason, then 21 years old, were declared 'dead' in an out-of-the-blue Instagram statement. But a month later, the cash-flaunting child rapper re-emerged and claimed her 'abusive' father was behind the sinister scheme. 'My abusive racist misogynistic woman beating father faked my death,' she bluntly asserted at the time. While it is unconfirmed what truly transpired, Lil Tay's rocky relationship with her parents - especially her father, Christopher Hope - had been a major chapter of the young woman's career. Recently, Lil Tay has found herself at the center of attention once again - this time for her OnlyFans pursuits. On the day she turned 18, she claimed the content was taken at exactly 12:01am, calling it 'freshly 18' content and adding in her bio: 'Please don't tell my mom.' But before the clock struck 12 on her birthday, she had already started buzz with her plans, advertising that she was launching the account online. It is likely she specially targeted Rain in her Tuesday boxing match proposal because she and members of the Bop House - which is a house full OnlyFans creators - had allegedly been claiming Lil Tay was trying to join. Lil Tay has vocally disputed these claims, even showing off a screenshot of the Bop House TikTok page actually reaching out to her to 'audition.' Adding another layer to the matter, Rain - who rapidly climbed to fame for earning $43 million on the platform in one year - has recently left the Bop House amid an alleged feud with another member, Camilla Araujo, 23, who announced she was also leaving the house about a week after. As Rain departed the Bop House, rumors emerged that she may be quitting OnlyFans altogether. In a video she shared on TikTok on July 22, she wrote 'Day 1 of me being retired' and showed herself sitting in a grassy field. She also said she purchased a farm with her staggering OnlyFans earnings. But after Lil Tay launched her account and received a jaw-dropping among of overnight success, Rain seemingly posted a TikTok directed at the OnlyFans newcomer. 'Me coming out of retirement after hearing someone is claiming to make more than me,' Rain wrote in a TikTok shared on Monday.

Iconic California music venue which hosted Taylor Swift and other country stars forced to close
An iconic California music venue, celebrated for showcasing the biggest names in country music for more than two decades, has abruptly closed its doors for good. Buck Owens' Crystal Palace - a beloved restaurant, bar, and music venue in Bakersfield - announced its sudden closure this week after 28 years of serving as a cornerstone of the West Coast's country music scene. The decision was attributed to hard times across the industry and the Owens family's desire to step back from the mounting responsibilities of running the business. 'Now, a challenging business plus the wishes of the Owens family members to step back from the responsibilities of management require finally shutting the doors,' the family said in a statement obtained by KBAK News. 'It is our hope that new owners will step forward to utilize this beautiful venue,' it added. The venue - a two-story, Western Revival-style landmark spanning 21,000 square feet on Buck Owens Boulevard - has long been dubbed the 'Mecca of country music.' 'Almost three decades of probably one of the more famous venues in the world for country music,' Jim Shaw, 78-year-old director of the Buck Owens Private Foundation, which owns the business, told KERO News. 'The Dixie Chicks, Taylor Swift, Garth Brooks, basically everybody came there,' he added. Despite its star-studded history and 600-person capacity, the Crystal Palace has quietly been on the market for the past 13 months, with an asking price of $7.5 million. 'If we got the perfect buyer and they'd want to keep it the way it is, we'd be really generous on making a deal,' Shaw told SFGate. Its legacy began in 1996 when Buck Owens - a hugely influential country musician - founded an all-in-one restaurant, concert venue and museum celebrating his life and career. Over the years, the club hosted future superstars like Taylor Swift, who, at just 16, took the stage in 2006 accompanied by her mother, long before she became a global icon, according to the Los Angeles Times. In a memorable moment from May 2005, Garth Brooks even proposed to fellow country superstar Trisha Yearwood on the venue's stage during a ceremony unveiling bronze statues of 10 country music legends. 'It was a great ride, and the first 10 years we were open, the Buckaroos played with Buck every Friday and Saturday night,' Shaw told SFGate. 'Those nights we had George Jones and Willie Nelson, they'd pop in on us, and we would jam,' he added. Owens himself, the frontman of The Buckaroos, performed one final show on March 24, 2006 - just one night before he passed away. 'The last night he wasn't feeling good, and he told me he wasn't going to play,' Shaw said. 'Buck walked out, and a couple from Oregon saw him outside as he crossed to his car and told him how excited they were to see him because last time he'd been sick,' he added. 'And he thought, "Oh crap," turned around and played the night.' But Shaw - a former member of Owen's band and director of the foundation that has owned the Crystal Palace since his death - said the venue's decline has been unfolding gradually over the years. Its unfortunate end, Shaw said, 'has been coming for a while - and I've dreaded seeing it happen,' according to LA Times. 'This starts off very depressing for us very bittersweet, and what I've learned in thinking about it – the same came up when we listed it for sale – just to be so proud of 28+ years, that's a big deal,' he told KERO. Additionally, the team behind the venue - including Shaw himself - has been aging, with many of those handling behind-the-scenes operations now in their mid to late 70s. 'We've done what we can,' he told LA Times. The Buck Owens Foundation officially put the property on the market last year, but so far, it hasn't attracted a buyer. With the venue still up for sale, Shaw made it his mission to convince the family to keep the lights on - if only for a little while longer. 'I thought it'd be better to show off the operation in order to get it sold,' he told SFGate. Now, devastated fans and performers are clinging to hope that someone with both a passion for music and the means to match will swoop in to rescue the legendary venue. Even Monty Byrom - a seasoned rock, blues, and country musician - called on members of the California State Assembly to step up and help preserve its history. 'Stan Ellis, buy the palace,' Byrom told KERO. 'Somebody out there buy the Palace!' Its sudden closure isn't unique - the Crystal Palace now joins a growing list of smaller country music venues struggling to survive in an industry that increasingly favors large arenas. 'The plight for legendary, midsized country music venues continues to worsen,' according to The Owens family officially announced its closure on Monday, revealing that its final show had taken place just two days earlier, on Saturday. 'We are extremely proud of the Crystal Palace... for over 28 years we brought the best of local and national entertainment to Bakersfield, served great food, and hosted thousands of special occasions for the thousands of special people and families,' the statement read. 'Although Buck left us in 2006, we continued to maintain the excellence that he expected, striving to carry out his dream,' it added. 'We know Buck would want us to thank the people of Bakersfield and fans from around the world for all of the support over the past years. We will miss you all.'

Diana Ross, 81, sparks health fears as she's forced to pull out of cruise ship performance
has sparked concerns for her health as she is forced to pull out of her upcoming performance for Royal Caribbean's Star of the Sea's showcase cruise. The 81-year-old Baby Love songstress - who recently opened up the Henley Festival last month - was slated to kick off the three-day journey on August 20 after being named 'godmother' of the massive ship. However, the star's representative said in a statement to People on Tuesday, 'Due to unforeseen circumstances, Diana Ross will be unable to appear'. An exact reason for the sudden absence was not given, but Diana is still set to begin her Beautiful Love tour in the U.S. on August 16. A spokesperson for the cruise line issued a statement as well and expressed, 'We are disappointed that Diana Ross is unable to join us to be godmother of Star of the Seas.' They continued that there are plans to announce a 'new godmother' of the ship 'soon'. A few months earlier in June, Royal Caribbean announced that the singer had been named godmother of the Icon Class ship. She had been set to to take to the stage to celebrate the new cruise that will embark from Port Canaveral in Orlando, Florida and head to Perfect Day at CocoBay in the Bahamas. To commemorate the debut of the latest Royal Caribbean ship, Diana would have also taken part in a special naming ceremony with guests. 'I am truly honored to join the Royal Caribbean family,' the Wiz actress expressed in a press release at the time, per PR Newswire. 'Having spent years of creating beautiful music and memories and bringing people together from all over the world, this feels like a perfect continuation of my journey as godmother of Star of the Seas'. The president and CEO of the cruise line, Michael Bayley, had also stated that the company was 'thrilled' to have the iconic singer ring in the debut of the Star of the Seas ship. 'We couldn't imagine a more fitting godmother for Star than Diana Ross, who is a true icon known for creating music that transcends generations while celebrating life and bringing people together...' While Diana will no longer take part in the showcase cruise, she is still set to begin her U.S. tour later this month on August 16 in Saratoga, California. The star - who is also known for being a member of The Supremes - will make stops in other cities such as Atlantic City, St. Louis, Newark and Lincoln. The Beautiful Love tour will officially conclude later this year in Palm Springs on December 13. Over the past weekend on Sunday, she shared the U.S. dates to her fans on Instagram and penned, 'It's good to be back home. 'The Beautiful Love Tour is coming to cities across the U.S. for unforgettable nights filled with music, memories, and joy'. The I'm Coming Out hitmaker added, 'The tour starts a week from today, on August 16th, at the @mountainwinery in Saratoga, CA. Come join the love celebration.' During a recent interview with People in June, Diana opened up about her family life and how she has been prioritizing her health. When asked what she has been 'up to these days,' the performer replied, 'Health and well-being'. Diana continued, 'And my family is equally everything to me. I like staying busy. Because I love what I do, it keeps me grounded. I'm swimming a lot lately to stay flexible. 'I must get my sleep which is important to me. I do my best to eat well, but I do like Häagen-Dazs ice cream'. In regards to aging and feeling good in her 80s, the star expressed, 'The love of what I do keeps me grounded, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. When you can't find the sunshine be the sunshine...' Diana then added, 'I have been very blessed in my life. I love what I do. I love my family. I love my life. I'm a happy person'. The singer also revealed that she had asked her family to join her on the Royal Caribbean cruise before she pulled out of her performance. She is notably the mother of five children - including Evan Ross who is married to Ashlee Simpson - and the grandmother of eight. Diana gained recognition as a former member of The Supremes - one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time. Over the years, especially throughout the 60s, they dropped a number of hit tracks such as You Can't Hurry Love and Where Did Our Love Go. In 1970, she left the group to launch her own successful solo career in the music industry and would go on to release hits including Endless Love, Ain't No Mountain High Enough and Chain Reaction. Diana has garnered 13 Grammy nominations and received the Lifetime Achievement Award twice - once for herself in 2012 and then later in 2023 as a member of The Supremes.
