Zac Brown Is Engaged to Kendra Scott—See Their Love Story
In May, singer and songwriter Zac Brown turned this year's American Music Awards into date night when he attended with his new girlfriend, Kendra Scott. The pairing caught many by surprise after the two made their red-carpet debut, as their relationship had not yet been publicly announced. Now, just two months later, the couple has announced their engagement. Keep reading to learn more about the unexpected romance between the country artist and jewelry designer and entrepreneur. Plus, look back at the drama that unfolded when Brown's last relationship ended. Zac Brown and Kendra Scott's red carpet debut Brown, 46, hit the red carpet at the 2025 American Music Awards on May 26, 2025, in anticipation of winning the show's first-ever Veterans' Voice Award. This new honor was established to recognize artists who have made a significant impact on veterans. (The Zac Brown Band, however, was beat out by Dan + Shay for Favorite Country Duo or Group). Joining him for the evening was an unexpected guest: jewelry designer Kendra Scott. The new couple made their red carpet debut, happily flashing grins as they posed for photographers. Brown donned a black suit and wide-brimmed black hat for the event, while his new girlfriend, 51, opted for a silver gown. Brown also took to Instagram to hard launch their relationship as the evening got underway. 'Hit the @amas red carpet with the best date by my side,' Brown wrote in the post, which also featured photos of the duo on the carpet. 'Ready to soak it all in and have some fun tonight!' Who is Zac Brown's fiancée, Kendra Scott? Scott began exploring the world of fashion in 2002, when she started designing jewelry at home and selling it at local boutiques. (Before that business endeavor, she sold comfortable hats for women going through chemotherapy as part of her first business, the Hat Box). Her company has since expanded into a billion-dollar jewelry brand with more than 100 retail stores and a strong online presence. Though Scott stepped down as CEO of her company in 2021, she currently still serves as both chief creative officer and executive chairwoman. The fashion designer has three sons from her first two marriages, and she got married again in early 2022 to Thomas Evans. Information about their split has not been made public. A look at Zac Brown and Kendra Scott's relationship Though the two being linked may have come as a surprise to many, Brown and Scott had been together for several months before hitting the red carpet, according to People. A source told the magazine that they were set up by a mutual friend and have become inseparable. In fact, the new couple was photographed together at the wedding of country artist Jamey Johnson on May 20. Brown was just one of many notable musicians to attend the ceremony, which was held at the Graystone Quarry in Tennessee. In June, Scott shared photos of her and her beau spending time together, from restaurants to a concert. She captioned the post, "Whenever I'm with you, I ain't worried about it. @zacbrown," as a reference to the Zac Brown Band song "I Ain't Worried About It." Though Scott may not be a country musician, it seems she and Brown still have plenty in common. The same source revealed to People that their roles as parents and love of philanthropy is part of their mutual attraction. Brown has not only been heavily involved with the nonprofit Hope for the Warriors over the years, but also founded Camp Southern Ground, as well. This residential camp provides aid to veterans when it isn't serving as a camp for kids during the summer. Meanwhile, Scott has the Kendra Scott Foundation, which runs programs that supply multilingual books to elementary schools and gives pediatric patients a chance to customize jewelry at no cost. What happened with Zac Brown and Kelly Yazdi? This new romance is the first for Brown since his split with actress Kelly Yazdi in December 2023. After just four months of marriage, the pair announced they were in the process of a divorce. Though they insisted things had ended amicably, it didn't take long for many fans to start to question what really led to the end of the relationship. In May 2024, Brown filed a temporary restraining order against Yazdi that demanded she remove an Instagram post that tarnished his public image and violated a previously signed confidentiality agreement. She has continued to speak out on social media with updates after the incident. Yazdi has yet to comment publicly, however, on her ex-husband's new relationship.

Positive operational results for L'azurde
Riyadh, KSA: 'L'azurde Company for Jewelry', the leading jewelry designer, manufacturer, distributor, and retailer in the Middle East, announced its interim financial results for the first half of 2025. Demonstrating outstanding operational performance, L'azurde reflects the strength of its brand and robust expansion strategy. During the first half, the company achieved operating revenues of SAR 278.2 million, a 11.4% increase compared to the same period last year, driven by strong performance across various markets, particularly in the retail sector as it increased by 17.3% compared to the same period of last year due to growth in the like-for-like stores of the existing stores and the extension of the store's network. 'L'azurde' recorded a gross profit of SAR 123.3 million during the first half of 2025, confirming the company's continued commitment to maintaining stable profit margins that reflect its operational efficiency and ability to create value. This growth was a direct result of the company's success in boosting sales at existing stores and opening new ones in strategic locations. Despite the positive operational performance and the stability of the net profit before one-off items, net profit of this period was affected by exceptional, non-recurring items for its operation in Saudi Arabia. The company has taken the necessary measures to address them. During the last 12 months, 'L'azurde' continues with its expansion plan with the opening of 13 new stores (7 in Saudi Arabia and 6 in Egypt), contributing to strengthening its regional presence and increasing its market share in its main markets. The company confirmed that the results during the first half of 2025 reflect the continued momentum of its core operations, despite challenges that reflected on the net profit. It affirmed commitment to implementing best operational practices and strengthening the governance and oversight system, which will contribute to improving operational efficiency and enhancing profitability in the future. 'L'azurde' expressed optimism about the continued upward trend in revenues and its work on developing its current operating model. It stressed that ongoing improvements in retail performance and smart market expansion, along with the focus on high-value products and branding, will support positive and sustainable results in the coming periods. -End-

BREAKING NEWS Kristin Cavallari reveals scary health issue forced her to have her 'boobs redone'
Kristin Cavallari has had trauma over her breast implants. The blonde jewelry designer announced that she had to have her 'boobs redone' recently after an issue popped up. The incident was scary but she is glad she took care of it immediately. 'My intuition was saying, redo your boobs. Go get your boobs checked out, at least a consultation,' the 38-year-old reality TV diva shared on her Tuesday Let's Be Honest podcast. She went to a plastic surgeon in Nashville who 'seemed a little concerned' about her right implant. 'What we decided was, "OK, well, you get in there and see what's going on," because we knew something was up,' Cavallari continued. She said, 'My boobs were not laying how I wanted them to lay, but just chalked it up to having the implants for eight years. Getting in to see the surgeon confirmed it was much more. 'He gets in there and I have a ruptured implant, and there is no way of knowing how long this implant was ruptured for,' she explained. 'Because my implant was ruptured, my body then formed a huge piece of scar tissue around it, which is good because it, kind of, like, holds it all in place. It's your body's way of protecting itself.' Cavallari added, 'That's why my right boob was definitely not laying right. And it was f***ed up.' It was 'crazy' to have that scare. 'I have no idea when that happened. I have no idea how long that's been going on for,' Cavallari continued. 'I guess, maybe, I could go through my camera roll and like try to figure out, like, when my boob started going a little f***ing cross-eyed.' In early May she showed off her chest.
