Jensen Ackles teases Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins reunion on final season of ‘The Boys'
Jensen Ackles has shared details about reuniting with his Supernatural co-stars Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins in the upcoming final season of The Boys. Speaking to People, Ackles explained the unusual feeling of working together on a new set. 'It was weird. It was like inviting my friends over to somebody else's house for dinner. I was like, 'Listen, guys, don't make me look bad. I got to stay here,'' he said, adding that the experience was 'amazing' and he looks forward to discussing it further. Ackles, who portrays Soldier Boy on the Prime Video series, last worked with Padalecki and Collins during their 15-season run on Supernatural from 2005 to 2020, a series also created by The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke. Padalecki recently confirmed he was open to joining the final season, telling Deadline, 'The answer is yes.' 'We have talked [about a role]. As a matter of fact, we talked today,' Padalecki said. 'I think at this point in my acting life, I only want to work on projects that I really care about or with people that I really care about, and obviously Eric and I are indelibly connected forever.' Collins' involvement follows Jeffrey Dean Morgan, another Supernatural alum, who appeared in The Boys Season 4 as Joe Kessler. This week, Kripke wrapped filming on the series finale, calling the moment 'bittersweet' while expressing gratitude for the cast, crew and the timing of the show's success. The final season of The Boys is set to premiere in 2026 following its record-breaking fourth season, which topped Nielsen streaming charts for Prime Video.

Spice Girls star Mel B marries Rory McPhee in London
Spice Girls star Mel B, known to fans as "Scary Spice," has tied the knot with hairstylist Rory McPhee in a romantic ceremony held in London. The couple exchanged vows on Saturday at The Crypt of St. Paul's Cathedral, a historic venue beneath the iconic landmark. Mel B, whose full name is Melanie Brown, wore a custom ivory gown by designer Josephine Scott, featuring a pearl-adorned neckline. Caroline Black, owner of Evelie Bridal Boutiques in London, told People that Mel B was 'a dream to work with,' noting the singer brought her own style to the event. Following the ceremony, the newlyweds hosted a reception at the Shangri-La Hotel at The Shard, where Mel B changed into a second dress by designer Justin Alexander. The guest list included notable names such as model Cara Delevingne, comedian Katherine Ryan, and Daisy Lowe, daughter of musician Gavin Rossdale. Fellow Spice Girl Emma Bunton, known as 'Baby Spice,' was reportedly the only group member in attendance. Victoria Beckham (Posh Spice), Melanie C (Sporty Spice), and Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice) did not attend. Mel B's daughters—Phoenix, 26; Angel, 18; and Madison, 13—served as bridesmaids, making the celebration a deeply personal affair. The singer, 50, became engaged to McPhee, 37, in October 2022 after dating for three years. She shared details of the proposal on the UK show Celebrity Gogglebox, describing it as a romantic evening filled with rose petals and a log fire at Cliveden House. The couple reportedly met through Mel B's cousin, actor Christian Cooke, who is friends with McPhee. This marks Mel B's third marriage; her previous unions were with Jimmy Gulzar and Stephen Belafonte, the latter of whom she accused of abuse—allegations he has denied.

The trip comes just weeks after news broke that Johnson and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin had ended their nearly eight-year relationship. The Materialists star was spotted dining in Rome with Hudson, entrepreneur Douglas Chabbott, and her agent Maha Dakhil. During the evening, Ricky Martin briefly stopped by to greet the group, despite dining at a separate venue nearby. Photo: Backgrid Days later, Johnson and Hudson were seen cruising off the coast of Ibiza, as captured in images published by People. The pair spent the day in bikinis, relaxing on a white float with a friend, swimming in the sea, and enjoying the Mediterranean sun. Photo: Backgrid Their connection extends beyond recent travels—Johnson and Hudson are daughters of close Hollywood peers, Melanie Griffith and Goldie Hawn, respectively. Their shared history adds a personal touch to the timing of the trip. The girls trip follows reports of Johnson's split from Martin. Though the couple had recently been photographed on a yoga date, rumours of tension had circulated earlier in the year, only to be dismissed at the time. Neither Johnson nor Martin has addressed the breakup publicly.
