Robin Roberts leaves ‘GMA' for ‘incredible journey' with wife
Robin Roberts is giving back. The 'Good Morning America' anchor, 64, has been temporarily absent from the show's broadcast for good reason. Instead of spending her days in the studio, Roberts took a trip with her wife, Amber Laign, to celebrate their 20th anniversary. The couple traveled to Kigali, Rwanda, to do some good. 8 Robin Roberts on the set of 'Good Morning America.'

Alongside a video of the service group dancing and chanting, the former massage therapist wrote, '20 Years, 20 Countries, One Incredible Journey ❤️🌍.' 'Robin and I celebrated our 20-year anniversary in a way we'll never forget — in Rwanda, with Giants of Africa, surrounded by the energy, joy, and spirit of youth from 20 African countries,' Laign continued. Their vacation solidified what is most important in this world. 'From dancing to community service that touched our hearts, this experience reminded us what truly matters: connection, purpose, and giving back. We're beyond grateful to have shared this milestone in such a powerful and uplifting way. Thank you, Giants of Africa, for letting us be part of something so meaningful,' she shared. 8 Robin Roberts and Amber Laign attend the 29th Annual GLAAD Media Awards.

This trip to Rwanda was a long time coming for the spouses. Roberts and Laign first discussed their anniversary plans in June while speaking to People. 'We're [actually going] to Rwanda,' the reporter said. 'Because we wanted to celebrate that way, because our time together has been an adventure. And we thought what better way than to be with the gorillas … in Rwanda?' 8 Robin Roberts on 'GMA.' John D Shearer/Shutterstock Along with volunteering together, Laign revealed the other ways she keeps their 20-year relationship alive. 'We keep it fresh,' she quipped. 'You've got to keep it fresh, have our little date nights.' Last month, Laign divulged another hack that keeps their romance in full swing. 8 NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Robin Roberts and Amber Laign attend 'Call Me Izzy' Broadway opening night. Getty Images 'The true secret: separate apartments,' she confessed to E! News, adding, 'Communication, keeping it fresh, trust—all the good pillars.' 'Trust is very, very big,' Roberts added. 'We've had peaks and valleys—mainly majority peaks, but there have been some valleys.' 'Once we learned to not look at each other through the lens of our childhood, that was a real breakthrough for us,' she explained. 'It was a real understanding [of] having different paths to get here.' 8 Amber Laign and Robin Roberts celebrate Robin Roberts' 20th 'GMA' anniversary. GC Images Roberts also acknowledged their decades-long commitment, which is no small feat. 'I mean, 20 years,' she gushed. 'Something's got to be working.' Laign lives in her home in Connecticut, while Roberts resides in her New York City apartment. Roberts first mentioned their living arrangements in her 2014 memoir, 'Everybody's Got Something.' 8 Robin Roberts and Amber Laign smile for a selfie. robinrobertsgma/Instagram She penned, 'Amber and I have been a loving couple for almost ten years now, but we choose not to live together. Maybe that's why we've lasted almost a decade!' Despite having her own abode, Laign couldn't be happier with the partner she chose. '15 years ago I met you for drinks on a blind date that both you and I tried to cancel…twice,' she shared in a 2020 Instagram anniversary post. 'Your grace caught my eye right away and the ease of the evening continued to flow through dinner.' 8 Robin Roberts and Amber Laign. robinrobertsgma/Instagram After that, there were no more cancellations to be had. 'We had a second date soon after and I couldn't believe how at ease I was with you as we shared each other's lives sipping lychee and apple martinis,' she continued. 'You left for Tahiti the following day and during that time apart I grew this feeling inside of me that still is very present today…butterflies.' Years later, Roberts took the leap to make things official. 'I'm hesitating because I haven't said it out loud yet … I'm saying 'yes' to marriage,' she shared on 'GMA' in 2023. 'We're getting married this year.' Referencing Laign's previous breast cancer battle, of which Roberts is a survivor too, she added, 'It was something we had talked about, but we had put it off. [Laign] became ill but … it is saying yes to that next chapter.'

Paris Hilton's $63M mansion buy led US home sales in June
Paris Hilton and her husband led the US real estate market in June with their pricey purchase of Mark Wahlberg's former megamansion. The mammoth Beverly Hills estate cost Hilton and her venture capitalist husband, Carter Reum, a cool $63 million. Their purchase topped out Redfin's top 10 list of the country's most expensive home sales, as did five other California-based transactions. Agents told CNBC the recent ranking reflects a pattern of luxury real estate regaining momentum in fire-ravaged Los Angeles. Advertisement 9 Paris Hilton, pictured in June. GC Images 9 Hilton and her husband, Carter Reum, share two children — and a new place to call home. Evan Agostini/Invision/AP 9 Wahlberg and his wife Rhea Durham sold the impressive property for $55 million in 2023. Paul Barnaby Advertisement Indeed, Hilton and Reum, who share two young children, lost their $8.4 million oceanfront Malibu home to the Palisades Fire — one of several that raged through the state in January. Hilton was candid about the loss in a post to her millions of Instagram followers. 'Sitting with my family, watching the news, and seeing our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience,' the heiress and influencer wrote. The sheer scale of her family's new home makes its eye-watering $63 million price a little more understandable. 9 A sun-lit dining room. Paul Barnaby Advertisement 9 One of two kitchens in the main house. Paul Barnaby 9 A wine and cigar cellar with a tasting area. Paul Barnaby 9 The outdoor pool includes a grotto, waterfalls and waterslides. Paul Barnaby The nearly 30,500-square-foot spread sits on 6 private acres. The extensive grounds feature a sports court, a skate park, a five-hole golf course and a pool worthy of a waterpark. A main house and a guesthouse include a collective 12 bedrooms — as well as a wine and cigar cellar, a home theater and staff quarters. Advertisement The mansion's sellers made a tidy profit from the deal, CNBC reported, even accounting for Los Angeles' hefty mansion tax. Their success makes Mark Wahlberg's $55 million sale of the home in 2023 look sadly premature. Hilton and Reum's purchase is currently the fifth priciest home sale of 2025, according to Redfin. Nicole Plaxen, an agent with the Beverly Hills Estates, told CNBC that LA's luxury market is being driven by displaced homeowners like Hilton. Plaxen also noted a return in foreign buyers, especially from China. 9 The Palisades Fire claimed modest starter homes and A-lister mansions alike. London Entertainment for NY Post 9 Hilton closed on the home five months after losing her family's Malibu beach house. Paul Barnaby The other 50% of Redfin's chart-topping June sales took place elsewhere: Three in coastal Florida, one in Manhattan and another on Lake Tahoe's Nevada side. All 10 sold for more than $30 million. New York's appearance in the June rankings was credited to the sale of a 50-foot-wide mansion in Midtown Manhattan. The sprawling 22-bedroom residence just off Fifth Avenue was built for a cousin of J.P. Morgan during the city's Gilded Age. The seller, previously reported at real estate developer Orin Wilf, cinched a $38.2 million deal on the property. Neither Wilf's sale nor Hilton's purchase comes even close to the year's most expensive deal so far. That superlative belongs squarely with the $225 million sale of three adjacent beachfront properties in Naples, Florida. The April transaction marked the second-highest home sale ever in the US, trailing Ken Griffin's $238 million penthouse purchase at 220 Central Park South in early 2019.

Polo Bar employees used water bottles to take cocaine on shift, had ‘Rating Game' for women customers: lawsuit
An exclusive Manhattan nightspot that's counted Meghan Markle, Kamala Harris and Leonardo DiCaprio as customers is a hotbed for sexual harassment among employees — who used spray bottles to take cocaine during their shifts and had a rating system for good-looking customers, a bombshell lawsuit alleges. The swanky Polo Bar, a bar and restaurant owned by fashion icon Ralph Lauren and located on East 55th Street at Fifth Avenue, has a 'toxic culture … and rampant drug use and alcohol consumption at work,' a veteran former server claimed in a federal lawsuit. Male bosses groped underlings under the guise of checking their uniforms and managers and servers often openly used cocaine, Frank Nobiletti claimed in court papers. Advertisement 5 The Polo Bar, located at 1 East 55th Street in NYC, NY on March 29, 2016. James Messerschmidt One server allegedly sold the drug on-site, and workers 'regularly mixed cocaine with water in a spray bottle and used that bottle to ingest cocaine' through their skin 'during service,' he contended in the legal filing. Michael Lewis, the bar's events manager, and Darnell Dodson, its international hospitality directory, both touched Nobiletti, 42, inappropriately at different times, he alleged. Advertisement Dodson was known to hire only attractive men, even if they had zero experience, 'hoping to have a sexual relationship with them,' Nobiletti claimed in the lawsuit. 'Male employees who had a sexual relationship with him … would receive preferential treatment.' Workers also allegedly played a twisted 'Rating Game' where 'women customers are rated based on attractiveness. 5 Vice President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff spotted leaving The Polo Bar. DIggzy/Jesal / BACKGRID 5 Its menu boasts caviar and potatoes for $145, pan-seared Dover sole for $80, and even $18 pigs in a blanket. Brett Beyer Advertisement 'The male servers frequently made offensive and graphic sexual comments about the women customers,' the suit alleged. Since opening in 2015, Polo Bar has been one of the most exclusive celebrity haunts in the Big Apple. The establishment is popular with bold faced names like Tom Hanks, Bill and Hillary Clinton, George Clooney, and U2's Bono. Its menu boasts caviar and potatoes for $145, pan-seared Dover sole for $80, and even $18 pigs in a blanket. One of its cocktails, The Family Reserve — which contains Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Extra Añejo Tequila, D.O.M. Benedictine and Brandy, Crème de Cacao, and Amaro Averna — will set you back $50. 5 George Clooney and Amal Clooney arrive to the Polo Bar on December 13, 2023 in New York City. GC Images Advertisement 5 Kim Kardashian is seen out for dinner at the Polo Bar on August 14, 2024 in New York City. GC Images Nobiletti claimed he 'faced terrible sexual harassment' and was fired in February 2024 after he complained human resources. Supervisors told him he was being let go 'for drinking at work even though, since the Polo Bar opened in 2015, management and staff regularly drank alcohol and used illegal drugs during work hours with little to no consequences for such actions,' he said in the legal papers. 'While the restaurant and its hard-working staff do everything they can to ensure that their guests have a first class experience, defendants completely failed to guarantee that their employees had a safe and legal work environment,' he said in the July 22 filing. In a statement to The Post, Polo Bar said: 'We have high standards for how employees conduct themselves and no tolerance for misconduct, so we take swift action when these standards are not met. This includes Mr. Nobiletti's termination that was based on clear evidence of his misconduct. Because we take all employee-related concerns seriously, we thoroughly investigated Mr. Nobiletti's allegations and determined they have no merit.' Nobiletti is seeking unspecified damages. His attorneys declined to discuss the case. Lewis and Dodson could not be reached for comment.
