Meghan Markle releases As Ever rosé — but you'll have to spend over $100 to get it
Meghan Markle has officially launched her As Ever brand rosé — and with quite a steep price tag. The rosé starts at $90 for three bottles, plus $20 flat-rate shipping, meaning you'll have to spend $110 total to try it. Shoppers can also opt for a six-bottle package for $159 or a 12-bottle case for $300. However, shipping isn't available in all U.S. states. Those in Alabama, Alaska, Delaware, Mississippi, Rhode Island, and Utah who were hoping to try Meghan's newest product will have to wait. And in Hawaii, shipping is only available to the counties of Hawaii and Kauai. International shipping is also unavailable. The bottles will begin shipping July 9. The rosé marks Meghan's first alcoholic offering. 'With soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality and a lasting finish, this bespoke blend is launching just in time for summer entertaining,' a description for the rosé reads. Meghan's foray into alcoholic beverages comes as the company restocked some of its products in June after selling out in less than an hour during the initial April launch. Among those products were $15 Flower Sprinkles, $14 Crepe Mix, $14 Shortbread Cookie Mix with Flower Sprinkles, and $12 Herbal Teas in three flavors: hibiscus, lemon ginger, and peppermint. The teas, however, have since sold out again. As Ever's June re-launch also introduced two new products: a $28 Limited-Edition Orange Blossom Honey and a $9 Apricot Spread. Both products also quickly sold out. While Meghan didn't restock her viral $9 Raspberry Spread, it will be coming back soon, according to As Ever's website. More to follow

Thanks to Netflix's NASA+, You Can Go Out of This World with International Space Station Livestream
This year, we've already gotten a Sally Ride documentary and another Ryan Gosling astronaut movie, but the biggest space-centric development in 2025 is all thanks to Netflix's unprecedented partnership with NASA: meet NASA+. Starting this summer, audiences can view live NASA space expeditions and watch each second of the International Space Station capturing out of this world (literally) footage of Earth. 'The National Aeronautics and our Space Act of 1958 calls on us to share our story of space exploration with the broadest possible audience,' Rebecca Sirmons, general manager of NASA+, said in an official statement. 'Together, we're committed to a Golden Age of Innovation and Exploration — inspiring new generations — right from the comfort of their couch or in the palm of their hand from their phone.' More from IndieWire David Koepp on Why It Took Him Almost 30 Years to Return to the 'Jurassic Park' Franchise He Helped Create 'The Running Man' Trailer: Glen Powell Sprints to Survive in Edgar Wright's Take on Dystopian Stephen King Novel Audiences will be able to stream rocket launches, astronaut spacewalks, and mission coverage through the NASA+ live programming. NASA+ will be available for free, without ads, through the NASA app and on the NASA website. As today's announcement notes, the work of NASA will become 'even more accessible, allowing the agency to increase engagement with and inspire a global audience in a modern media landscape, where Netflix reaches a global audience of more than 700 million people.' Netflix has been doubling down on educational efforts in recent months: the streamer now has exclusive worldwide premiere rights for beloved PBS show 'Sesame Street.' The platform scooped the rights to the iconic series after Warner Bros. Discovery's HBO Max opted to not take on the contract again. 'Sesame Street' will continue to be available on PBS KIDS and across their digital video and games platforms to continue providing free public television. 'Sesame Street' is created by Sesame Workshop, a global nonprofit. Netflix is debuting a reimagined Season 56, as well as airing 90 hours of previous episodes and unveiling spinoff storylines. In addition to the series, Netflix will also further expand the 'Sesame Street' franchise by developing video games for both 'Sesame Street' and 'Sesame Street Mecha Builders.' Netflix also famously has been the platform for a slew of nature docs, including 'Our Living World' narrated by Cate Blanchett, and 'Our Planet' with Sir David Attenborough, Salma Hayek, and Penélope of IndieWire Guillermo del Toro's Favorite Movies: 56 Films the Director Wants You to See 'Song of the South': 14 Things to Know About Disney's Most Controversial Movie Nicolas Winding Refn's Favorite Films: 37 Movies the Director Wants You to See

DDG jokes about using fertility clinic to avoid drama
DDG has claimed he will have his next child via fertility treatment to "alleviate" against any potential issues. The 27-year-old online personality is currently locked in a bitter battle with former girlfriend Halle Bailey - with whom he has 18-month-old son Halo - and he's joked about using his wealth in order to fund having another baby with the intervention of medical specialists. During a livestream on Twitch, he said: 'If I'm 29 or something like that, and I ain't got the time… I'll just go to that little place, do my little one-two, put my s*** in a cup. Take a little egg from somebody, throw it in another little body. Cook that motherf***** up for nine months, ya know? You can do that type s*** when you got money. That'll alleviate a lot of s***.' Last month, DDG failed in a bid to secure a domestic violence restraining order against Halle The streamer had alleged the 25-year-old actress posed a risk to Halo and sought to prevent her from taking the little boy with her to Italy, where she had filming commitments. In response, the Little Mermaid star filed to deny DDG's request and asked for permission to take Halo out of the US, as well as requesting her former partner, his family and friends, stop posting about her, their son, and their court drama on all platforms. According to TMZ, the court sided with Halle. In court documents obtained by PEOPLE magazine and other outlets, DDG had accused his former partner of being an "an imminent emotional and psychological risk to the minor child based on repeated, documented threats of self-harm". He alleged that if Halo left the country, the child wouldn't have the protections of the court or any "emergency intervention mechanisms". DDG - whose real name is Daryl Dwayne Granberry Jr. - also claimed Halle has made "repeated threats of suicide and self-harm" and alleged she "routinely used emotional coercion and manipulation to exert her control over me, often threatening me by using self-harm or ending her life" during what has been referred to as an almost three year "on again/off again" relationship. DDG claimed she allegedly "threatened to end her life using my legally owned firearm" in 2023, as well as stalking him during their relationship, and physically and verbally abusing him. He wrote in the filing: "Given these threats to self-harm, I believe the Petitioner is a threat to our son's safety such that she should not be allowed to take Halo out of the country to Italy for a period of two months." In May, Halle was granted temporary sole physical and legal custody of Halo, along with a temporary restraining order which expired in line with a planned court hearing on June 4. She had accused DDG of domestic abuse, while previous court documents obtained by Page Six, saw her allege that she filed for sole custody without notifying DDG because she was "afraid that the violence would reoccur" and that "the other party would take the children out of the area".
