Winnie Harlow 'isn't in a rush to get married'
Winnie Harlow won't "rush" her wedding plans.
The 30-year-old model announced her engagement to basketball star Kyle Kuzma in February, after nearly five years of dating - but Winnie insists that the loved-up couple are in no rush to get married.
She told Us Weekly: "So many people ask me about the engagement and when the wedding is and you know what? I don't want to rush anything.
"I want to do everything perfect and the way I want to do it. So whatever time that takes, whatever things that take, I just want to relish in this moment."
Winnie has enjoyed huge success in her career, and the model credits her grandmother for inspiring her can-do attitude.
She shared: "My grandmother is such a fiery Jamaican Leo, just like me, and she has always been confident.
"From watching her paint her red nail polish, to doing her makeup, to choosing her hair looks, the adventurous takes she takes on fashion, whether it's leopard print pants or a fuzzy top. I've always been able to see that confidence."
Winnie and Kyle announced their engagement via a joint post on Instagram in February.
The celebrity duo shared a series of photos of them hugging and kissing onboard a plane, while Winnie has also shared images of her dazzling engagement ring.
Kyle, 29, actually proposed to Winnie during a vacation in Turks and Caicos. But Winnie never saw the proposal coming, even after Kyle filled their cabin with roses, balloons, chocolate, and Champagne ahead of the Valentine's weekend.
The model told Vogue magazine: "I still had no idea what this was. I was just like, 'This is so cute for Valentine's Day, oh my gosh!'"
Winnie admitted that the thought of getting engaged briefly crossed her mind - but she quickly dismisses the idea.
She shared: "For a split second in my head I thought, 'This would be so cute if this was an engagement.' But I'm also not the type of person who wants to guess or wants to spoil a surprise. So it just was a fleeting thought in my head."
Kyle read a poem to Winnie and the last line read, "Will you be my wife?"
The sports star then presented her with an 8.5-carat, oval-cut engagement ring.

Tulisa's dad has died
Tulisa's dad has died. The N-Dubz star has taken to Instagram to announce the loss of her father Steve Contostavlos - who went by the name of Plato - but she didn't share any details as to when the Mungo Jerry keyboardist had passed away. Sharing a childhood photo of herself and her dad, Tulisa wrote on Tuesday (01.07.25): "Love you pops, rest in peace. Forever my father's daughter." Her cousin and N-Dubz bandmate Dappy had also shared a video of himself with his uncle, alongside a white dove emoji. When Tulisa commented on the post with a broken heart emoji, he replied: "I'm so sorry T." The former X Factor Judge previously revealed how her dad helped her develop her passion for music at a young age. She told Ferne Cotton on her Happy Place podcast: "My dad had a little studio in Dollis Hill and he used to bring me there sometimes when he was working. He put me on the mic at the age of five. I was singing Little Mermaid. "I just knew there was nothing else I felt passionate about." And the Number One hitmaker previously explained she and her dad were more "friends" than sharing a typical father/daughter relationship. She told Paul C Brunson on his We Need To Talk podcast: "Me and my dad's relationship has not been a conventional one. "I would say me and my dad now we're just more friends that kind of have an understanding of one another." In the same interview, Tylisa told how she became "dependent" on prescription drugs after self-medicating with sleeping pills to "numb the pain" after her dog got cancer, but she feared she was "going to die" after she tried to quit. She said: "I was dependent without knowing... I just went cold turkey for five days and I ended up in hospital because I didn't know, but my body had become dependent on it. "I felt like I was having a heart attack. I had pains in my chest.... I just literally felt like I was going to die. "Once I overcame that in January, I didn't know how much I had been affected by it and I started to feel alive again. "I started to feel me, as a human. I was like, 'Oh my god, this is reality'. I couldn't determine anymore what was real and what wasn't in terms of my anxiety, my depression. "I didn't know what was what. Then it takes so long for your body to get back to normal again and for your nervous system to recover."

Tallulah Willis candidly addresses hair loss during anorexia battle
Tallulah Willis has candidly opened up about "balding" as a result of her eating disorder. The 30-year-old star - whose parents are Bruce Willis and Demi Moore - has spoken openly about her battle with anorexia in her 20s and she's admitted she used to view her thinning locks as a "badge of honour" but amid her recovery, Tallulah now values feeling "sexy" with fuller locks and the "comforting" feeling of piling her hair up on her head. Sharing a set of photos, she wrote on Instagram: "I wanna talk about when I was balding because of my severe anorexia. The first photos were taken in summer 2022 in Austin TX while I was at Driftwood recovery. I want to talk about how I for a long time in my life I would have seen those patches of bare skin blurring through sparse hairs as a badge of honor. 'I was sick enough to make you look' :( "While I was at driftwood I temporarily needed a wheelchair to walk because my leg muscles had atrophied so badly. I'm still working to build back the muscles decimated during those many many years. I had such breakable and fragile hair, so thinned I had to use thousand clippies to keep things in place. And usually they slipped off because they nothing to grab into. "I chose to crop some of them because for me this truly isn't a stage to show off how I nearly starved to death (publicly!) , but I think the photos serve as a teaching tool." Tallulah admitted looking at more recent photos of herself made her smile because of how much better she feels now. She added: "I went searching for the 'AFTER' pictures from the last few months and smiled the whole time. The these photos are from spring of this year. I didn't realize how comforting a big bun could feel like, how sexy it feels for your hair bounce a little when you walk. I didn't value myself or my health but I am of the lucky who have made it to the other side. I made my disorder public and now it only feels right to make my recovery as well. I want to heal and hug and soothe every busy mind that's out there still hurting. "Keep going I love u all [hug emoji] (sic)" Tallulah has been open in the past about her battle with anorexia, noting that "restricting food has felt like the last vice" she has to "hold onto" after getting sober a decade ago. In May 2023, she told Vogue magazine: "For the last four years, I have suffered from anorexia nervosa, which I've been reluctant to talk about because, after getting sober at age 20, restricting food has felt like the last vice that I got to hold on to. "When I was 25, I was admitted to a residential treatment facility in Malibu to address the depression that I had lived with through my adolescence. "It was a largely therapeutic experience; for the first time, I grieved the 15-year-old misfit me, the ugly duckling. I was also diagnosed with ADHD and started on stimulant medication, which was transformative."
