View this post on Instagram A post shared by Apple TV (@appletv) What Popular American drama series The Morning Show is all set to return for Season 4 on September 14, 2025.

Returning stars include Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Greta Lee, Nicole Beharie, and Jon Hamm. The new season will begin with a time leap of two years after the events of Season 3 ended. Showrunner Charlotte Stoudt's Reaction To Season 3 Finale In conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, the showrunner Charlotte Stoudt spoke about how the writers invited troubles with the Season 3 finale cliffhanger. Even though it showcased the lead characters Alex Levy (Jennifer Aniston) and Bradley Jackson (Reese Witherspoon) going on diverging paths, they would eventually find their way back to each other in Season 4. The showrunner said, "Because that's the core of the show. People appreciated that they were together but not together. That's the contradiction. Everybody has to face what they have to face. There is accountability, but it's not bleak. Even when you have to be accountable for something, life can go on." The Plot The storyline revolves around Alex Levy who co-headlines The Morning Show (TMS), one of Manhattan''s popular morning show program broadcasts. The TRP is excellent and it is touted to have changed the face of American television altogether. The first season sees Alex's co-anchor Mitch Kessler (Steve Carrell), fired due to sexual misconduct. Alex fights to stay strong when she is joined by a field reported Bradley Jackson. The story then unravels to show how Bradley's impulsiveness threatens the network's reputation. The second season sees the network CEO work out a way to convince Alex to return to work and her hugely successful morning show. As the pandemic takes over the world, Bradley goes through an identity crisis. The third season focuses on how the network struggles to retain viewership for its subscription service. In A Nutshell Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon-led The Morning Show enjoys a massive fandom. The show which has had an incredible run for three seasons, is all set to return with Season 4 on September 14, 2025.

Man charged with stalking Jennifer Aniston found mentally incompetent to stand trial
A judge declared on Thursday that a man is mentally incompetent to stand trial on charges of stalking Jennifer Aniston and crashing his car through her front gate. The move in a Los Angeles County mental health court came after a second psychiatrist examined the defendant, Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, and reached the same conclusion as the first: that his mental health would not allow him to answer to felony charges of vandalism and stalking of the Friends star. 'The court finds the defendant is not currently competent to stand trial,' judge Maria Cavalluzzi said. 'Criminal proceedings will remain suspended.' Carwyle, 48, of Mississippi, has pleaded not guilty. He appeared behind glass in a custody area of the courtroom and did not speak. He looked vastly different than his previous two court hearings. His scraggly gray hair and beard had been shorn, and he was wearing bright yellow county jail clothing after previously appearing with bare shoulders, wrapped in a blanket-like smock meant for suicide prevention. Carwyle had argued that he is competent and exercised his right to a second opinion after an initial incompetence finding last week. 'It's not the outcome my client would have preferred,' deputy public defender Robert Krauss told the judge. A conviction on the charges, along with an aggravating circumstance of the threat of great bodily harm, could bring up to three years in prison for Carwyle. The incompetence finding has no set end date but it is temporary and the standard criminal process could resume later. Cavalluzzi ordered more comprehensive mental evaluations to help determine where and how he will be held and what his treatment will be. The judge will get a report on the results at a hearing on 26 June, where Aniston or her attorney will be allowed to share her perspective on the case. Aniston's lawyer, Blair Berk, was in the courtroom observing on Thursday but did not speak. Berk and the deputy district attorney handling the case declined to comment outside court. Prosecutors allege Carwyle had been harassing Aniston with a flood of voicemail, email and social media messages for two years before driving his Chrysler PT Cruiser through the gate of her home in the wealthy Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles on 5 May, causing major damage. A security guard stopped him in her driveway until police arrived. Authorities said Aniston was home at the time but did not come into contact and no one was injured. Aniston became one of television's biggest stars in her 10 years on NBC's Friends, from 1994 until 2004. She won an Emmy award for best lead actress in a comedy for the role and she has been nominated for nine more. She currently stars in The Morning Show on Apple TV+.

Yes, there's an award for the world's best wool — and San Francisco just hosted it
In the world of high fashion, there is so-called 'quiet luxury' typified by subtle colors, a lack of discernible logos and exquisite craftsmanship. Just picture the billionaire spawn on 'Succession' or Jennifer Aniston's penthouse-dwelling newscaster on 'The Morning Show' if you need a visual reference. Then there's Loro Piana: The century-old Italian maison specializing in fine wool is so quiet, it doesn't even whisper — it just silently pantomimes. So it was no surprise when I entered the rotunda at San Francisco City Hall for the Loro Piana Record Bale Award on Wednesday, May 28, that the atmosphere was a sea of discreet taupe, bone and eggshell — both in the decor and attire of the clients of the brand. It was one of the few times covering parties in San Francisco when wearing black or navy (both usually safe) seemed like an act of sartorial rebellion. The Loro Piana Record Bale Award has been given since 1997 to recognize two farms (one in Australia and one in New Zealand) that produce the finest bale of Merino wool. For sheep breeders, it's like winning an Oscar. Given San Francisco's famed fog — and density of billionaires (the brand's prices are in the thousands) — the city felt like an appropriate host. 'I think there is a level of consumer here that can understand what we're doing,' said Loro Piana deputy chairman Pier Luigi Loro Piana. 'If we can please, somehow, the beautiful customer we have in San Francisco and California, we are pretty happy.' Should you ever get invited to the Bale Award presentation, take note: One must not use the term "shepherd,' which is apparently declasse. Also, no one will find it funny if you ask if any livestock are in attendance, nor should you inquire about Mary and her little lamb. Ditto Little Bo Peep. While no sheep were present (bahhhh humbug), their wool was an essential part of the experience. Guests included Mayor Daniel Lurie and director of protocol for Governor Gavin Newsom Becca Prowda; philanthropist Sako Fisher and hedge fund manager William Fisher; former ambassador to Austria Trevor Traina and author Alexis Swanson Traina; Apple's vice president of design Alan Dye and fashion designer Elizabeth Dye; San Francisco's Consul General of Italy Sergio Strozzi; animal welfare philanthropist Vanessa Getty; Google cofounder Sergey Brin, and incoming Loro Piana CEO Frédéric Arnault (son of billionaire LVMH founder Bernard Arnault, which owns an 80% stake of Loro Piana). All were invited to feel award-winning bales on display to understand just how luxurious the raw material is, thanks to its ultra-low micron counts. (A micron is a unit of measurement of the fineness of a fiber that is equivalent to one thousandth of a millimetre. By comparison, a human hair measures 80 microns.) I was instructed in the proper way to touch the wool, which is to pat the top of the bale with the palm. It was like caressing a cloud: I felt like my hand had entered another dimension, possibly heaven, or maybe Narnia. The centerpiece of the evening was a panel moderated by social media content creator 'The Gstaad Guy,' whose posts cheekily poke fun at the tastes of the uber rich. Joining him were Piana, current Loro Piana CEO Damien Bertrand, Australian sheep breeder Bradley Sandlant of the Pyrenees Park farm, and New Zealand sheep breeder Warwick Payne of the Visulea farm. Piana made an appropriately Italian analogy for the role of fine wool in the construction of fashion. 'If you want to make a good fabric, you have to start from a good raw material,' Piana said. 'Exactly as at a restaurant, if you want to make a good pasta, you need to have the right ingredients.' Bertrand noted that 'Loro Piana is a chain of hands from the sheep to the shop.' At the conclusion of the panel, Sandlant was awarded the 2024 Bale Award for Australia for a 10.5-micron bale, while Payne was awarded for New Zealand for a 10.8-micron bale. Following the award presentation, guests adjourned to the North Light Court of City Hall for a dinner by celebrity chef Michael Tusk (Cotogna, Quince). Dahlias, peonies and electronic candles punctuated the table that stretched across the room. Sandlant noted that such evenings were not the norm for his family in their life as sheep breeders (not shepherds.) 'Most of our day-to-day stuff in the country is just a regular farmer doing the best we can do,' said Sandlant. 'But to be able to produce a product that gets us around the world to follow and meet wonderful people that buy the end result product, that passion really drives us.' As I made my exit, I stroked the wool a final time. There's soft, and then there's Loro Piana award-winning bale soft: Cashmere and vicuña will probably feel like sandpaper in comparison. I hope the sheep back in Australia and New Zealand were partying too.

Jennifer Aniston's alleged stalker found mentally incompetent to stand trial for 2nd time
The man accused of ramming his car into the gate of actress Jennifer Aniston's Bel Air home has been found not mentally competent to stand trial, for a second time. This now delays the criminal proceedings for Jimmy Wayne Carwyle while he undergoes treatment. Just last week, a different psychiatrist previously determined he was mentally incompetent to stand trial, now a second doctor has confirmed that. Carwyle has been accused of stalking the 'Friends' actress since March of 2023. Prosecutors said the 48-year-old Mississippi resident repeatedly harassed her, leaving her unwanted voicemails, and sending her messages over social media and email. On May 5, he was arrested for allegedly stalking and crashing his car through the front gate of 'The Morning Show' star's home. Aniston was reportedly home when this happened. Carwyle has been charged with felony stalking, vandalism and more for the incident. If convicted, he could face three years in prison. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Brad Pitt confesses frustration with constant media attention
The 61-year-old acting legend has been in the spotlight since 1987, winning two Academy Awards, and receiving a further five nominations, over the years. But while his acting career has attracted plaudits, his personal life - which has included failed marriages to Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie - has attracted intensive attention. Hitting out at the scrutiny his life draws, he told GQ, "My personal life is always in the news. It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way."
