‘Game of Thrones’ fame Maisie Williams splits from boyfriend Reuben Selby after 5 years together

Washington [US], February 24 (ANI): ‘Game of Thrones’ star Maisie Williams revealed she and boyfriend Reuben Selby have called it quits after five years together.

According to E! News, a USA-based entertainment news outlet, in a February 23 Instagram Story Williams wrote, “The end of an era,” alongside a selfie with Selby.

She added, “@reubenselby_ and I have decided to end our relationship. Since we met 5 years ago, our connection always extended deeply into our shared, and separate, creative careers… and it will continue to do so.””This decision is something we are so grateful or as we can protect the magic, that we can’t help but emit, whenever we put our brains together… P.s no further questions, please, we must protect our children (my dog),” the 25-year-old continued.

Selby, a designer and entrepreneur, also shared the split news with his social media followers, reposting the message to his Instagram Story and adding a heart emoji.

The fashionable pair first went public with their romance back in 2019, even attending the wedding of Williams’ ‘Game of Thrones’ co-star Sophie Turner and singer Joe Jonas in France that year.

Williams even demonstrated how committed their romance was by donning a Selby-designed gown to the 2021 Met Gala after several PDA outings together.

“It’s inspired by The Matrix… I have my coat and my Matrix nails. I’ve grown up on these American icons–women in film, these heroines. It shaped the woman that I became, and so it kind of made sense for me to honor those people tonight,” she told E! News on the red carpet at the time, as per E! News. (ANI)

Inside Ellen Pompeo’s Mother-Daughter Date to Michael Kors

Unsurprisingly, Ellen Pompeo can carry on a full conversation while having eyelash glue applied to her face.

“I’ve been doing it a long time,” Pompeo says as makeup artist Hung Vanngo works his magic.

More from WWD

The “Grey’s Anatomy” star — and glam chair pro — is in New York for a few days, the cornerstone event being attending Michael Kors’ show Wednesday morning. The trip provided a good excuse for a little mother-daughter trip, so Pompeo has brought along her 8-year-old daughter Sienna; they spent Valentine’s Day having a playdate with one of Sienna’s friends, and are off to the Kors show together.

While Pompeo gets glammed, sipping coconut water as Aaliyah and Boyz II Men play overhead, Sienna hangs out near her mom, playing with toys in her pajamas.

“It was a nice little chance for us to just have a little time together,” Pompeo says of the girls’ trip.

It will be Sienna’s second fashion show after the whole family traveled to Italy last year for a Dolce & Gabbana show.

“I’m looking forward to actually seeing Sienna’s face,” Pompeo says of taking her daughter to the Kors show. “She’s 8 years old, but she loves the glamour.”

While Wednesday was the first Kors runway show she’d attended, Pompeo has known the designer for years.

“Back in the day when the Met Ball was a little more of a smaller event, a little more of a New York event, I used to go with him,” she said. “I went as his date a couple of times.”

Now that she is stepping back some from her role as a regular on “Grey’s,” Pompeo has more time to do things like come to New York for a fashion show, as well as star in other projects. She’ll

Beauty salon’s water supply cut off during roadworks

A BEAUTY salon had its water temporarily switched off without warning during roadworks.

Define Hair and Beauty in Church Street, Caversham, was one of a number of business affected during the incident on Wednesday last week.

Thames Water was carrying out work near the junction with Prospect Street.

Salon manager Annabelle Banks said a client was due to have her hair colour washed off at about noon but when she went to turn the tap on no water came out.

She said: “I panicked because I thought something was wrong with our boiler system.”

Then she realised it might have had something to do with the roadworks outside the salon so she spoke to the workers.

She said one of the men told her that they had turned off the water so she complained that the salon should have been given warning.

Ms Banks said: “He told me to give him 10 minutes to turn it back on so I said, ‘No, I need it now because a client needs her hair washed’, so he put it back on.

They had thought it was only going to shut off the water in the hardware shop next door, they didn’t realise it would affect us.

“They were nice after that and we shut at 2pm on a Wednesday so we didn’t really have any problems after that. The client was very nice about it.”

Temporary traffic lights were in place for the duration of the roadworks from Tuesday to Friday, which caused traffic delays of up to 10 minutes.

Queues built up on Church Street, St Peter’s Hill and on both sides of Caversham Bridge. Ms Banks said: “Clients still came in but some had to call to say they would be late because they were stuck in traffic.

“We were

The Senate’s transparency commission also is investigating whether the sale of a refinery by Brazil’s state-controlled oil giant was related to the jewels.

‘Women who break rules intrigue me’: Michael Kors channels Gloria Steinem | New York fashion week

Gloria Steinem may, for most people, be known as a key figure in feminism. But she is also increasingly gaining a reputation as a style icon.

The latest evidence appeared around the hips of models at the Michael Kors show at New York fashion week on Wednesday. Many of them wore a version of the low-slung, decorated belt that has become a Steinem signature. It appeared over sweater dresses, flares and miniskirts.

Steinem’s belt, with its silver decoration, is often a concho – a design that has its roots in Navajo culture. In a steinem-style” data-link-name=”in body link”2015 interview with Lena Dunham, she named it as an element of her “power outfit” that she wears when she wants to feel like “a rad bitch”.

The majority of Kors’s show was less rad and more the refined and tasteful clothes appreciated by the discreetly wealthy women that make up his customer base.

There were long herringbone coats, skirt suits and trouser suits, as well as sequin dresses and glamorous evening coats. A colour scheme of brown, taupe, camel on cashmere and tailoring felt very Succession’s Shiv Roy.

At a press conference before the show, Kors displayed a mood board of references for the collection – featuring 1960s and 70s stars including Steinem plus Jane Fonda, Aretha Franklin, Yoko Ono and Cicely Tyson.

“The women who intrigued me then and still intrigue me today are the women who break the rules,” he said. “They’re strong, powerful, smart [but] they’re happy to admit that they love fashion.”

As well as learning about feminism through these famous women, Kors also had a lesson at home. His own mother was featured on the board – an athlete and feminist who once tried out for the Philadelphia Eagles.
