Love Island's Chloe Burrows confirms she's off the market after finding love
EXCLUSIVE: Love Island star Chloe Burrows has opened up about her own dating disasters ahead of her new Channel 4 documentary, UNTOLD: Love in the Wild - The Real Dating Experiment Love Island babe Chloe Burrows has confirmed she's officially off the market – but don't expect to see her packing on the PDA anytime soon. The 28-year-old blonde beauty, who shot to fame on the ITV2 dating show back in 2021, has finally moved on from her high-profile split with Toby Aromolaran – and she's found love the old-fashioned way. Speaking ahead of the release of her brand new Channel 4 documentary UNTOLD: Love in the Wild – The Real Dating Experiment, which drops tonight (June 4), Chloe spilled the tea on her new romance, her dating disasters, and why she's turned her back on dating apps for good. 'Yes, I've met someone in real life,' she confirmed with a smile. 'But I'm keeping this one private. No more public relationships for me.' Chloe and Toby captured the nation's hearts during their time in the villa, eventually finishing as runners-up in the 2021 series. But after a whirlwind romance outside the show – complete with moving in together and red carpet appearances – things fizzled out, and the pair called it quits in 2022. 'After my other Untold documentary, I'm standing on business,' Chloe explained. 'I'm not having a public relationship again. It's not a secret, just something I want to keep to myself.' In her new doc, which is part of Channel 4's hard-hitting UNTOLD strand, Chloe goes on a real-life dating mission to uncover why young Brits are ditching the apps and heading back to real-world romance. And spoiler alert – it gets messy. From speed dating to awkward blind dates to full-on rock climbing with strangers, Chloe dives into every type of face-to-face flirting you can imagine – and she's got the bruises (and stories) to prove it and when it comes to her own dating life away from the show, it hasn't always been plain sailing. 'There's one guy who looked nothing like his profile pic,' she laughed as she detailed the time she was catfished. 'I evacuated immediately. I said I needed the loo and never came back.' The documentary also dives into the dark side of app dating – from AI-generated profiles to safety concerns and ghosting culture. 'It's mad,' Chloe admitted. 'It's too easy to catfish now. You just don't know who's really behind the screen.' And while she's still glued to Love Island like the rest of us, don't expect her to pop back into the villa any time soon – even for All Stars. 'No. Not for me,' she said firmly. 'I've done my bit. I've moved on. I'll still be watching though – I'm a fan just like everyone else. I love the routine of it – dinner done by 9, sit down and watch Love Island, then bed.' The dating show returns next week for its 12th series marking a decade since its debut. Since her Island days, Chloe's carved out a brand new career as a presenter and doc host. Her first UNTOLD film tackled the dark side of fame, and now she's back for round two – and loving it. 'I love getting stuck in. I'm not just narrating – I'm actually going through these experiences,' she said. 'Let us [Islanders] enjoy any opportunity we get. If it's not your thing, that's fine - watch something else. Trolls will always troll. But for those of us taking this route, good on us.' And her advice for anyone still swiping left and right? 'Go outside. Go meet people. Honestly, try speed dating. The vibe was immaculate.'

Michigan head football coach Sherrone Moore faces suspension for Jim Harbaugh-era scandal
The Connor Stalions spying saga isn't quite over for Michigan. The school now plans to suspend head football coach Sherrone Moore for two games as part of self-imposed sanctions resulting from the 2023 scouting scandal, ESPN is reporting. The suspension will reportedly be served against Central Michigan on September 13 and Nebraska on September 20. The two teams had a combined 11-14 record in 2024. has reached out to a program spokesperson for confirmation. Moore was the Wolverines' offensive coordinator in 2023 when Stalions, then a Michigan staffer, allegedly operated a sign-stealing scheme by having friends and family attend the games of future opponents and videotape sideline signals. Per ESPN, Moore's suspension is tied to allegations that he deleted a thread of more than 50 text messages with Stalions in October 2023. Moore's predecessor, Jim Harbaugh, was previously suspended for the final three games of the 2023 regular season as a result of the scandal. The NCAA cited Michigan for 11 violations in an August 2024 notice of allegations, including six Level I (the most serious) violations. The school and the NCAA are still working on a final resolution of the matter. Moore, 39, succeeded Harbaugh and guided the Wolverines to an 8-5 record (5-4 Big Ten) last season, ending with a 19-13 win against Alabama in the ReliaQuest Bowl on December 31. Stalions, who now volunteers at the high school level, has denied any wrongdoing. 'If I´m a bad guy, then everyone in football is a bad guy,' Stalions said on the latest release of 'UNTOLD' on the streaming service. NCAA rules do not prohibit stealing signs, a role Stalions appeared to have on Harbaugh's staff with the Wolverines, but the governing body does ban advance scouting. 'I did not obtain signals through in-person scouting,' Stalions told NCAA investigators during a virtual meeting that was recorded and incorporated into a 2024 Netflix documentary, When investigators asked Stalions if he attended the Central Michigan-Michigan State game on September 1, 2023, he said he didn't recall. At another point in the documentary, Stalions was shown alongside an image of a man wearing Central Michigan gear and sunglasses during a night game against the Spartans ahead of their game against Michigan. 'I don´t even think this guy looks like me,' he said with a smirk. Records from other Big Ten schools show Stalions bought tickets to numerous games involving future opponents and the NCAA alleges he sent those people to digitally record teams when they signaled plays. Stalions, though, insisted some of those tickets landed in the hands of people who sent him unsolicited video clips from games and refused to budge when asked about it by NCAA investigators. 'I don´t ever recall directing someone to go to a game,' he said, adding he sold some tickets and transferred others to friends. Stalions told the NCAA that he didn´t need videos of signs sent to them because he had already memorized them. In the documentary, Stalions shared details about how he deciphered signs from opposing teams by creating a database with thousands of images of him performing thousands of signals. Before Stalions graduated from the Naval Academy in 2017, he was a volunteer student coach for Ken Niumatalolo and said in the documentary that stealing signs was the role he performed at Navy. He was a volunteer for Michigan's football program for years, including when he was stationed in San Diego and slept in his car while renting his house, until Harbaugh hired him 2022. The retired captain in the Marine Corps was an analytics assistant for the Wolverines when he was suspended in October 2023, a day after the school disclosed it was under NCAA investigation. Stalions later resigned. 'I kind of went in hiding,' he said. 'They dragged my name in the mud.' NCAA investigators were asked by Stalions´ attorney if his personal data, which was obtained by a third party, was taken without consent and they said they were unable to share that information. The NCAA investigation into impermissible in-person scouting and sign stealing by Michigan hung over the second half of the team´s unbeaten season last year. Stalions attended the 2023 win over Ohio State, where former linebacker Michael Barrett confirmed in the documentary he saw him at Michigan Stadium. On the first day director Micah Brown joined Stalions for the documentary, he used his cellphone to record videos of Stalions crying in the stands as confetti fell in Houston during the Wolverines' national championship celebration after beating Washington in Houston. Harbaugh, now coach of the Los Angeles Chargers, has denied any knowledge of impermissible scouting while he was with the program. Stalions showed a game ball he was given by the program, he said for deciphering signals, after a win over Iowa in 2022. 'Don´t get the big head, Connor,' Stalions recalled Harbaugh telling him. The Big Ten suspended Harbaugh for the final three games of the 2023 regular season to punish Michigan for violating the conference´s sportsmanship policy after its investigation of the sign-stealing scheme. Stalions was not paid to appear in the documentary but was compensated for footage he provided, according to to SpringHill, the entertainment company that produced the film and is owned by LeBron James and Maverick Carter. 'They wanted to do this and they got access to Connor,' Brown said. 'No matter how people view Connor in this film, he should have a career in football and hope he is given that choice.'

7 Exciting New Movies Coming To Netflix In May 2025
A masked killer haunts couples on Valentine's Day in the 2025 horror film 'Heart Eyes.' One thing I always appreciate about Netflix is the sheer variety of new movies we get each month. From time-traveling horror to incisive documentary to family-friendly comedy, each month brings a fresh slate with offerings for every kind of movie taste. And May 2025 is no exception. This month features films from the three aforementioned categories, and stars major actors like Ariana Greenblatt, Vince Vaughn, Olivia Holt, Mason Gooding and Susan Sarandon. The lineup features a continuation of one of Netflix's most enrapturing documentary series, as well as what has arguably been the most-talked-about movie thus far of the 2025 movie season. So, yeah, it's a packed month. What movies should you watch out for this month? Below, I've detailed everything you need to know about seven different movies, including plot descriptions, trailers, release dates and why you should watch them. Then at the bottom of the article, you can find a full breakdown of every single movie hitting Netflix in May 2025. Happy watching! The first quarter of each year is traditionally the worst for movies. Often, it's when studios dump films they believe won't perform well with critics. But hidden amongst the rubble, there always seems to be movie gems - and 2025 was no different. This year, Heart Eyes was the film to capture the zeitgeist at just the right moment, and now it's going to be available on Netflix. This genre-bending horror-romance centers on a cynical advertising designer named Ally (Olivia Holt), who is recovering from a recent breakup, and a charming consultant named Jay (Mason Gooding), who partners with Ally to design a Valentine's Day campaign. But things take a perilous turn when the 'Heart Eyes Killer,' who targets a different couple each season, mistakes them for boyfriend and girlfriend. This twist-filled narrative is a great entertainment, with the masked killer's true identity a focal point of the endless surprises. Director Josh Ruben hit a home run with his tonally balanced approach (it's as much a horror film as it is a love story), leading to a $32.9 million box office run and a 81% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Heart Eyes will be available to stream on Netflix starting May 8, 2025. The Netflix UNTOLD sports documentary series, now in its fifth year, returns this month with three new installments. Where past entries have documented high-profile sports scandals, such as football player Manti Te'o's online relationship with a made up woman or the rise and fall of the AND1's sportswear line, this season focuses on three new stories that captivated headlines and made lasting impacts. The first, UNTOLD: Shooting Guards, revisits the infamous 2009 incident involving NBA teammates Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton of the Washington Wizards. The second, UNTOLD: The Liver King, details the story of Brian Johnson, aka the "Liver King," who built a massive online following by promoting an "ancestral lifestyle" that included consuming raw meats and intense workouts. And in the third documentary, UNTOLD: The Fall of Favre, NFL Hall of Famer Brett Favre's illustrious career is examined through the lens of his many off-field controversies. All three stories involve scandalous behavior, such as Arenas and Crittenton bringing firearms to games, the fact that Johnson was using steroids and Favre's alleged involvement in misappropriating Mississippi welfare funds. The three documentaries in the UNTOLD series will be available to stream on Netflix on May 6 (Shooting Guards), May 13 (The Liver King), and May 20 (The Fall of Favre). Speaking of Netflix movie series, there's a surprise fourth entry into a horror franchise that I didn't realize was going to happen until I looked at the streaming schedule this month. The Fear Street series, based upon the R. L. Stine franchise of the same name, revolved around teenagers who would travel through time to break curses that loomed over their towns. The first three movies all came out in 2021, and involved three distinct years for their settings: 1994, 1978 and 1666. But unlike those previous films, which strayed from the source material quite a bit, the latest entry, Prom Queen, is a direct adaptation of Stine's 1992 novel, and plunges us into '80s nostalgia for its standalone story that doesn't require you to watch the other films in the franchise. Set in 1988, this horror flick from director Matt Palmer returns to the cursed town of Shadyside, where prom season at Shadyside High is underway. While the school's popular clique competes for Prom Queen, the presence an unexpected outsider, Lori (India Fowler), turns the competition into a deadly affair. In addition to Fowler, the film features a talented ensemble cast, including Suzanna Son, Ariana Greenblatt, Fina Strazza, David Iacono, Ella Rubin, Chris Klein, Lili Taylor and Katherine Waterston. Fear Street: Prom Queen will be available to stream on Netflix starting May 23, 2025. Mixed within the rather grim and bloody selection this month on Netflix, there lies a heartwarming comedy about one of my absolute favorite subjects: cooking. I love movies about food, from Big Night to Tampopo to Ratatouille, and a new one always gets me excited - especially a film that focuses on the importance of family traditions in dishes and how matriarchs pass down their cultural legacies. And that is certainly the case with Nonnas, a film that aims to offer an authentic portrayal of cultural preservation of cuisine via the real-life establishment of Enoteca Maria. Directee by Stephen Chbosky (who gave us The Perks of Being a Wallflower) and written by Liz Maccie, this movie tells the true story of Staten Island native Joe Caravella (Vince Vaughn), who seeks to honor his recently deceased mother's memory by opening an Italian restaurant staffed entirely by grandmothers (aka 'nonnas'). Featuring performances by Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Brenda Vaccaro, Linda Cardellini, Drea de Matteo and Joe Manganiello, Nonnas showcases actual recipes from Enoteca Maria and hits Netflix just in time for Mother's Day. Nonnas will be available to stream on Netflix starting May 9, 2025. This is, admittedly, an indulgent pick. Because the more chances I have to spread the word about the wonder of Greta Garbo? The better. As stars of classic Hollywood cinema fade further and further into the recesses of moviegoers' minds, we forget some of the most incredible stories to ever captivate the industry, as well as some of the most entrancing performances film has ever seen - and nobody commanded the screen like Garbo. That's why Garbo: Where Did You Go? is such an important documentary, as it goes beyond the myth of the reclusive star and offers an intimate portrait of the actress through previously unseen archival footage, over 200 unpublished personal letters and stylized re-enactments of key moments in her life. Directed by Lorna Turner and narrated by actress Noomi Rapace, the documentary explores Garbo's journey from her impoverished beginnings in Stockholm to her rise as a cinematic legend, starring in classics such as Ninotchka, Camille and Queen Christina. Tucker aimed to portray Garbo not just as an icon but as a complex individual, stating, "I want to make sure that people can see that these gods that we create are terribly human." Garbo: Where Did You Go? will be available to stream on Netflix starting May 14, 2025.
