'Bachelor' couple Sean and Catherine Lowe push back on Ozempic craze: ‘There's a healthier route'
Reality TV stars Sean and Catherine Lowe are addressing the Ozempic craze in Hollywood, labeling the movement "triggering" and "hard to watch." The former "Bachelor" stars have found an alternative route when it comes to wellness. Sean and Catherine spoke to Fox News Digital about the new fitness habits they've created and their commitment to healthy Atkins recipes. "We're inundated with [the Ozempic] messaging, and it's really hard, because we just don't know what's going to happen in the long term," Catherine said. "But we've seen that consistency and doing things more considerately about your wellness and making habits be part of your life that you're not going to see things instantly, but if you are consistent over a period of time, you're gonna be healthier. "And so, Sean always talks about, just consistency is so important. And I think we are so prone to taking an easy route, but there are other options out there ... I think there's a lot of restriction, too." She added: "It's been hard to watch the Ozempic craze. It's been, I'm sure, triggering for a lot of people, but there's a healthier route, and I think if you're willing to stay on track at something for a longer period of time, you'll see probably a healthier lifestyle in general." Sean and Catherine, who have partnered with Atkins for a healthier lifestyle, shared that they focus on walking after meals, going to the gym and consistency to stay on track with their goals. "[You] try to go to the gym every day, and then you try to make really smart choices, which Atkins helps us do," Sean explained. "But I think where people get in trouble is when it's like all or nothing, 100 miles an hour, really strict, oppressive diet that you know is not gonna last." "And doing the same in the gym, just going way too hard, way too fast," he added. "And it's just, it's not built for longevity. So, for me, it's consistently making good choices, consistently going to the gym, being active, things like that." Sean and Catherine first met on season 17 of "The Bachelor." The two ended the show with an engagement and later married in a televised ceremony in 2014. After 11 years of marriage, the two don't believe their marriage has any spark left. Instead, Sean and Catherine joked they enjoy a "consistent fun simmer." "We met in such an unconventional way, and what attracted me to her the most was just this energy and this playfulness that she has," Sean said. "And I think we still have that 11 years later. Like, we're constantly just being playful with one another and acting like kids who are in love, right?" WATCH: 'Bachelor' couple says it's 'hard to watch the Ozempic craze' Catherine added: "We're just best friends, and we spend a ridiculous amount of time together. So, you know, most people, if they are away from each other for most of the day, you want to spend quality time with them. But we like literally disperse it throughout every single day. We're always together. And so we're just best friends, and we do everything together." "It's less of like quality time and a concentrated effort. It's more, this is who I wanna be with all the time." After meeting on reality television, the two chose to build a family together. The couple share two sons, Samuel and Isaiah, along with their daughter, Mia. Sean and Catherine pointed to their commitment to authenticity when it comes to how they've navigated the spotlight while raising their children. "Honestly, I feel like we both – at the onset of whatever fame this is – we really just stayed true to ourselves," Catherine said. "So, the pressure isn't super high. We just live life and happen to have a platform." For the couple, it's been "really easy" to show up online authentically because of their supportive followers – who have grown from "Bachelor" fans into an online community. "From the beginning, we've just shared authentic pictures and videos of us and our kids and having fun and things like that," Sean noted. "It's been really neat to see the people who watched us, what was that, 12 years ago, and then they became followers. And they've just kind of been on this journey with us for 12 years. And so, to answer your question more directly, it's been really easy because I think more times than not the people who follow us are just really supportive and kind and have nice things to say. And sometimes we share difficult things in our lives, and people offer support and encouragement. So for us, it's kind of natural and easy. And it's also been rewarding to, you know, have such good feedback from followers on social media."

Montreal protesters demand rent control measures ahead of moving day
Protesters braved the rain Saturday afternoon and took to Montreal's streets to demand rent control measures from the Quebec government. Catherine Lowe was renovicted half a year ago from a unit she lived in for nine years. She said it was done in 'such a terrible way' she not only lost her home and neighbourhood, but she was treated as if she 'was not even a human person.' She said the housing tribunal could not help her. 'I managed to find another apartment that I can barely afford,' she said. 'Now they just want to keep increasing to the maximum.' As an artist, she feels Montreal is becoming less accessible – and she worries what rent will look like in a couple of decades. 'People want art in the city, but they won't want affordable housing,' she said. 'For me, the crisis is not even about the housing market. It's about having a heart and being a human and understanding that not everyone has the same financial capacity.' Lowe said the government is closing its eyes in front of a major problem that is felt everywhere. Catherine Lowe Catherine Lowe said she feels she has no choice but to protest the new rent control formula after being 'renovicted.' (CTV) Housing Minister France-Élaine Duranceau set up a new formula to calculate rent hikes last month as tenants across the province are preparing for their highest increase in over 30 years. She said it would 'maintain a balance, [offer] greater predictability for tenants and landlords alike,' and that 'by using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as an average over the last three years, we avoid major variations.' But the Regroupement des comités logement et associations de locataires du Québec (RCLALQ), which represents the province's tenant associations, wants the new regulation withdrawn and replaced with stronger protection for tenants. The RCLALQ set up a petition to this effect which will soon be available on the National Assembly's website. Advocates and lawyers have criticized the new rules, saying the formula is flawed and would result in even higher rent increases in coming years. They say that including general inflation in the calculations, when it already includes housing, creates a 'vicious cycle' where each rent increase justifies further hikes the following year. The new formula also allows landlords to factor in the cost of renovations even more. 'Essentially, if this regulation had been put in place, the rent increases would have been almost three times higher over the past few years, and we're anticipating they're going to be even worse over the years to come,' said Amy Darwish of the Comité d'action de Parc-Extension. Amy Darwish Amy Darwish of the Comité d'action de Parc-Extension says the Housing Minister's new rent hike formula is a 'gift to landlords.' (CTV) She accused the minister of 'profiting from a housing crisis to ram through a regulation that's going to put even more tenants in precarious situations' and called the formula a 'gift to landlords.' Darwish said she's been hearing from dozens of tenants who don't know how they will afford rent in a few years if they keep rising at the current rate. Tenant associations are running out of advice to give, she added, and worry many will be evicted. 'We think it's unacceptable ... It's time that they take action to reduce the pressure on tenants and to allow people to live in their homes and dignity,' she said. RCLALQ points out that Ontario caps rent increases, unlike Quebec. On top of withdrawing the new formula and a rent freeze, advocates want rent control measures enshrined in law. The formula is set to go into effect next year.
