The Summer I Turned Pretty's Conrad and why he's perfect for Belly
Reach Screen Time spoke exclusively to one relationship expert about the brooding older Fisher brother WARNING: This article contains spoilers from The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3, episode 5 The Summer I Turned Pretty fans have been left swooning after the latest episode of the YA Prime Video drama, which was narrated by Conrad Fisher (played by Christopher Briney) and where he opened up his heart to audiences about his feelings for Belly Conklin (Lola Tung), after viewers previously predicted the show's endgame. The instalment titled Last Dance saw Conrad chivalrously helping Belly with wedding shopping after Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno) was stuck in New York for some of the July 4 weekend. There was also a flashback to Belly and Conrad sharing an intimate moment, which was the last time they were together before he ended their romance. Throughout the episode Conrad expressed his regrets about letting her go and trying to be there for his younger brother after making a deathbed promise to his mother Susannah Fisher (Rachel Blanchard). Many fans are now fiercely debating about which of the Fisher brothers Belly should be with. In an exclusive interview with Reach Screen Time, relationship coach Gemma Nice addressed Conrad's green flags that makes him the ideal partner for Belly. Nice said Conrad's green flags were 'undeniable' and went on to explain how he remained single after four years since breaking things off with Belly. Moreover, Conrad 'openly admits that she is the only person he has ever truly loved', while Jeremiah cheated on Belly twice after they'd had an argument about spring break. Nice went on to say: 'Throughout the series, Conrad consistently shows that he listens to her and pays attention to details in ways Jeremiah does not. "In series one, he chose an infinity necklace in silver, Belly's preferred colour, while Jeremiah overlooked this detail with her [engagement] ring. In series two, during a conversation with Jeremiah in the store, Conrad remembered that she would enjoy sour sweets and prefers this over Swedish Fish which Jeremiah picked up for her, further showing how attentive he is. 'Most recently, in series three, after overhearing her crying, he baked her favourite cakes to comfort her. These moments highlight Conrad's unwavering thoughtfulness." Nice added: "Conrad puts the happiness of the love of his life first. In [a] recent episode, he even agreed to be his brother's best man despite how painful it was for him, because he knew it would make Belly happy after seeing her cry about no one wanting the wedding between her and Jeremiah to go ahead. 'This contrasts with Jeremiah, who agreed that Belly should not go to Paris, a lifelong dream of hers, because he selfishly wanted her to stay at home." Audiences will have to keep watching to see if Conrad can keep his feelings from Belly or if the truth will eventually come out. If Conrad does share his feelings, it could have huge consequences for Belly and Jeremiah, who are due to walk down the aisle.

9 Collagen-Rich Foods With Anti-Aging Benefits
In many ways, you are what you eat. And while I may not be transforming into a Swedish Fish anytime soon, the ingredients that you put into your body indeed change how it functions. That's why when I entered my 30s, I started eating a collagen-rich diet—foods filled with this form of protein can positively benefit the skin and joints. What is collagen? Collagen: It makes skin firm and smooth, supports internal organs, and builds strong cartilage, muscle, and bone. Collagen holds our bodies together; without the protein, we would be a shapeless mass. And when it comes to our faces, collagen creates with scaffolding within the skin that helps prevent laxity and wrinkles. In fact, about 33% of the protein in your body is pure collagen, but the amount your produce begins to diminish as your entire your 30s (cue the wrinkles and creaky joints). In addition to tying collagen supplements or the Jennifer Aniston habit of collagen coffee, the easiest way to support your body's collagen protein is through your diet. Below are some ways to work it into your diet ASAP. Collagen-rich foods to eat Bone broth Loved by celebrities and the wellness set, bone broth is made by slowly cooking bones, cartilage, and tendons of animals (all of these are very rich in type I collagen, which is the most beneficial for skin, nails, and hair). Incorporate it as a savory drink as part of a meal—it's also rich in amino acids and minerals like sulfur, magnesium, and calcium. Poultry To get the most out of chicken and turkey, gravitate toward the skin, thighs, and wings of the chicken (not the breast). Salmon Fashion designer Victoria Beckham eats salmon every day because of its myriad health benefits. Fatty fish like salmon and mackerel are the richest in collagen (and so are sardines eaten whole)—even better when you enjoy it with the skin on. Meat Whether beef, veal, or pork, meat is a good source of collagen—with one catch. Collagen-based protein is most concentrated in connective tissue and tendons, which are typically considered the more fibrous and less desirable cuts. If you're wanting to focus on a collagen-packed cut, select an option like ribs. Egg whites Eggs themselves are not a source of collagen—but the egg white specifically contains proline and glycine, two essential amino acids for proper collagen production. Oysters They aren't just an aphrodisiac—oysters contain an inordinate amount of zinc and copper, and the amino acids proline and lysine, precursors of collagen. Indulge in them on special occasions for more radiant skin. Red peppers While bell peppers themselves do not contain collagen, they are an amazing source of vitamin C—even more than citrus!—which is key to building new collagen. Pairing red peppers with a meat or fish dish is the ultimate skin-enhancing dish, as you'll maximize collagen production. Garlic Garlic's many health benefits include immunity support, soothing inflammation, and boosting collagen production. In fact, it contains this winning combination: vitamin C, zinc, and copper. Legumes This vegetarian-friendly protein (think chickpeas and lentils) fall into the category of foods essential for synthesizing collagen. The beans also contain vitamin C, silicon, and magnesium, all of which help your body produce more collagen.

This Katie Holmes-Approved Brand Is My Airport Go-To
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. If I could change one low-level, totally insignificant thing about me, I would turn myself into the kind of person who enjoys air travel. I love going places, but I hate the actual process. So, I try to gussy up travel days to minimize my own discomfort. I'll treat myself to a fun snack (Swedish Fish, probably), download a new book, and maybe even indulge in an airport Chili's margarita (or three). But invariably, without fail, what really saves the day is my outfit. Enter Leset. How I love thee; let me count the ways. Leset is the wardrobe-staple, base-layer brand you've been unwittingly missing your whole life. Picture: the softest matching separates you can imagine and perfectly versatile essentials that you'll want to wear throughout your trip. It's a capsule dream come true. If you're the carry-on only type, you could get away with a duffle full of Leset and little else. Honest! Katie Holmes was recently spotted in the brand's bestselling Pointelle Slim Fit Tee—just one of many A-listers who swear by Lest. Hailey Bieber has worn the Arielle trousers, over and over again. Even Meghan Markle has a cozy sleeveless Leset turtleneck that whispers chic. I've never had to go straight from a flight to an important business meeting or event—and thank goodness; I'm not fit for public consumption after being airborne—so I've never had to travel in slacks or heels or anything like that. But! If I did, I already know my trusty Leset coords would deliver, keeping me comfortable yet polished for whatever awaits. I'm writing this story because I've had one too many people in the TSA line ask where my pants/tee/cardigan is from, so I'm sharing my secret with the world. Next time a chatty seatmate ignores my don't-talk-to-me headphones and hoodie combo to inquire, I'll just point at the tag. It's always going to be Leset, babe. Below, shop my go-to pieces from Leset. Why Trust ELLE Every product featured on is independently researched, tested, or editor-approved.

Yahoo is using AI to generate takeaways from this article. This means the info may not always match what's in the article. Reporting mistakes helps us improve the experience. Generate Key Takeaways Candy connoisseurs are getting loud all over social media about their favorite new candy from Trader Joe's. In fact, they're loving this one so much they say it beats all their old favorites, including their Super Sour Scandinavian Swimmers. If you're not a frequent TJ's shopper, or not one to follow the shop's fandom, you might not be aware that the Scandinavian Swimmers (their extra-sour take on Swedish Fish) have a strong fanbase. And to hear folks on TikTok swear this new candy item is even better is, well, a pretty big deal. So what exactly is this new candy we all so obviously need to try? They're called Sour Strawberry Candy Belts, and they are taking TJ's fans by storm. According to Trader Joe's website, these fully vegan candy belts are made by a Turkish supplier that only uses natural flavors and 'colors derived from fruit & vegetable juices.' They kinda, sorta resemble bacon, but again, fully vegan! They come in a 10 ounce box and are just $3.49, so they're nice on the wallet, too. Bonus: reviewers say the box is real easy to open, which is nice given that so many containers nowadays can be downright dangerous to open. You can sense the excitement for them over on Instagram, where plenty of folks have been commenting about the anticipation. 'I've been looking for these for months 😤😩,' said one IG user. Other comments included, 'Lord I didn't need another sugary temptation at TJs 😂,' and 'I've been waiting for these to hit shelves! Can't wait.' Related: Trader Joe's Brought Back One of Its Most Popular Spring Baked Goods, and Shoppers are Eating It 'All In One Sitting' But it's over on TikTok where you'll find the stellar reviews of this new confection. @heatherrmariee1 tried these out and immediately gave the strawberry-infused candy a 10 out of 10. 'This is by far the best candy that TJ's has and I'm a number one fan of Sour Scandinavian Swimmers,' she shared with her followers. Big praise! @jacquelinesvlog also tried them out, and upon tasting told her followers, 'These are so good I could cry. They're wonderful!' And when someone in the comments brought up Scandinavian Swimmers, she was quick to reply that, in her opinion, these were even better. You can check TikTok yourself, but it truly does seem like the former Fishy King of TJ's Candy has finally been ousted.
