Ginny & Georgia Season 3 called out for obvious age jump; fans can't ignore Austin's sudden glow-up: 'That's not a 9-year-old'
Austin's growth spurt is hard to ignore in Ginny & Georgia season 3
Austin is supposed to be nine years old in the story, but Diesel La Torraca, the actor who plays him, is now 14 in real life. Since there's no time skip in the show, his sudden transformation is pretty obvious on screen. Diesel even acknowledged this in interviews, saying the team used tricks like slouching, lowering his voice, and standing on apple boxes to make him look younger. Still, viewers could instantly tell that the young kid from previous seasons is now clearly a teen.
Fans are having a field day with the age jump.
The casting mismatch didn't go unnoticed. Fans quickly took to social media to react to the change, and many of the posts have been hilariously spot-on. Some fans joked that Austin now looks old enough to have kids of his own, while others compared the situation to sitcoms where characters age overnight.
One user wrote, "I can finally say that #GinnyandGeorgia s3 is SO good. The work Brianne Howey is doing is Emmy-worthy. Felix Mallard is another standout. Show has leveled UP. Loved it start to finish (but we have to time jump eventually because Austin is about to be a 5th-grade senior citizen)".

Another added, "Ginny and Georgia season 3 is kind of killing me. Like, who thought it would be a good idea to have a show take place in the same year but span over 3 seasons?" Austin's voice is actually killing me. Like, that's a middle schooler, not a 9-year-old."

A third frustrated fan mentioned, "Netflix needs to just start cancelling shows if they're going to take literal years to start filming a new season, lmfaoooo. The time jump from season 2 to 3 of Ginny & Georgia was literally supposed to be like 3 days. Austin went from a 9-year-old to a 15-year-old in a WEEKEND?"

"Help, I can't watch season 3 of Ginny and Georgia because of the obvious puberty Austin is going through. He's trying to talk in a high-pitched voice, but it's not working," a fourth fan highlighted.
Help i can't watch season 3 of ginny and georgia cause of the obvious puberty austin is going through 😭😂 hes trying to talk in a high pitched voice but it's not working
Diesel La Torraca didn't shy away from the chatter about his glow-up. He posted a playful TikTok with co-star Connor Laidman, poking fun at how much both of them had grown since their last scenes. 'Y'all think I grew up,' he joked in the caption, showing just how noticeable the changes were for both Austin and Zach.
About Ginny and Georgia
The series first launched in 2021 and centres on Georgia, a young mom trying to start over with her two kids in the quiet town of Wellsbury, Massachusetts. The main cast includes Brianne Howey, Antonia Gentry, Diesel La Torraca, Felix Mallard, Sara Waisglass, Scott Porter, and Raymond Ablack.
Season 3 took longer than expected to arrive. Although Season 2 wrapped filming in early 2022, the next chapter was delayed due to the writers' and actors' strikes. Production didn't resume until much later, making the return feel even more overdue for longtime fans.

‘Meri khuraq khatam ho gayi hai': Salman Khan opens up about mindful eating, marvels at his 89-year-old father's routine of having parathas and dessert twice a day
Many believe that fitness is all about intense gym sessions and restrictive diets. But for some, it's a matter of consistency and moderation. Salman Khan, who recently appeared on the premiere of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix, opened up about how he and his father, 89-year-old veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, maintain their health. In a candid moment, Salman said, 'My dad, touchwood, Mashallah, he tells me that meri khuraq khatam ho gayi hai (my appetite has gone down), but he eats 2-3 parathas, then rice, the gosht (meat), then dessert, twice a day. Unka ek metabolism alag hai. Unka discipline alag hai (His metabolism and discipline are on a different level) (sic).' He added that he is proud to see his father being fit and healthy despite his old age. 'So he has been walking all the way to Bandstand and back every single morning. We're so happy to see that. We are so proud that we have a father who's fighting it out,' Salman said. Sharing his daily routine, the actor revealed, 'I'll eat anything but won't overeat. Like say, 1 spoon rice or at max one-and-a-half, whatever vegetables, then chicken or mutton or fish.' According to Salman, his key to staying fit isn't about completely cutting out any food groups, but about knowing where to stop. During the same conversation, Salman spoke about how he helped shape fitness trends in the Indian film industry, noting that he was one of the early actors to bring gym culture into the spotlight. He shared his happiness at seeing veterans like Dharmendra continue to prioritise their health. Deepika Sharma, a Delhi-based personal trainer with a focus on functional nutrition, tells 'Yes, it can. Eating less of everything is often easier to follow than strict diets. Portion control allows people to enjoy different foods while keeping their calorie intake in check. It helps with weight management and reduces the chances of overeating. You don't need to avoid entire food groups if you're eating reasonable amounts and staying active.' Sharma says that both genetics and lifestyle choices matter when someone reached old age. 'Genetics set a base for metabolism, but lifestyle plays a big role in how it functions over time,' she stresses. Sharma adds that someone like Salim Khan likely benefits from good genes, but his ability to stay active and eat well even at 89 shows the importance of daily habits. 'Most people will see their metabolism slow down with age unless they maintain movement and adjust their diet.' According to the expert, small portions are a good start, but not all foods are equal. Highly processed foods, sugary snacks, and fried items should still be limited, even in small amounts. 'A better approach is to eat whole foods in smaller portions and keep unhealthy options occasionally. Portion control works best when combined with better food choices,' concludes Sharma.

Netflix's newest romance, My Oxford Year, has hit the digital screens. The movie starring Sofia Carson and Corey Mylchreest has got the internet talking with its heartbreaking climax. Directed by Iain Morris, the storyline is based on the novel of the same name, penned by Julia Whelan. As for the movie, it revolves around an American student, Anna, who heads to Oxford to fulfill her dream. While in the process, she meets a charming local, Jamie, who changes his and Anna's lives forever.

My Oxford Year ending explained While fans are enjoying the chemistry between Carson and Mylchreest on the screens, they are also left weeping by the climax of the film. Despite being attracted to Anna, Jamie wants to keep his distance from her. Not only because he is afraid of commitments, but also because he is terminally ill and does not want to ruin Anna's life. However, Jamie could not fight his feelings anymore, and he ultimately went on to get together with Anna. At the end of the film, Anna faces a tough decision. She could either stay back in the U.K. or return to her home country. Finally, Carson's character decides to stay. She and Jamie spend the night together, only for Anna to find Jamie lying unconscious the other morning. He has severe leukemia, and the condition could also kill him. Lying beside Jamie on what is now his deathbed, Anna discusses her future travel plans with the one she loves. The itinerary includes places like Amsterdam, Venice, Paris, and Greece. The audience witnesses the scene cutting to a montage of images, where Anna and Jamie visit the countries together. The movie then jumps back, and it is revealed that Jamie has passed away with Anna beside him. In the final scenes, Anna is now a professor at Oxford, teaching the students. My Oxford Year is available to stream on Netflix.
