Another insider told the US outlet that Jessica and her husband, Ben Mulroney, had reportedly separated "some time ago".
Jessica shares three children with Ben – who is the son of former Canadian Prime Minister, the late Brian Mulroney and his widow, Mila.
The couple have twin sons, Brian and John, 14, and daughter Ivy, 12, were part of the bridal party at Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding in Windsor in May 2018 – where Jessica also acted as the bride's maid of honour.
HELLO! has reached out to Jessica Mulroney's representatives for comment.
Fallout with Meghan
Former actress Meghan first met stylist Jessica on the set of Suits, and the pair formed a close friendship, even going on girls' holidays together.
But in 2020, the pair reportedly fell out amid a racism scandal when influencer Sasha Exeter called out Jessica for displaying "textbook white privilege" within the fashion blogging community.
And when Jessica apologised, citing Meghan as one of her "closest friends", the Duchess reportedly put an end to their friendship.
The stylist has not featured on Meghan's new Instagram account since the Duchess returned to the social media platform at the start of 2025 and she did not appear in the Netflix series, With Love, Meghan.
Close friends Abigail Spencer, Kelly McKee Zajfen, Delfina Figueras and Daniel Martin all notably made appearances on the show.
Jessica is thought to have briefly featured in the Sussexes' Netflix series, Harry & Meghan, released in 2022.
Moments before Harry proposed in the garden of Nottingham Cottage, Meghan was seen video calling a friend.
She was heard saying: "Oh my God Jess, it's happening. He told me not to peek."

2026 Oscars: Contenders, analysis, and way-too-early predictions
It's never too early to start thinking about the Oscars. Summer blockbuster season is just about over, paving the way for fall festival season. Many of the projected contenders at the 2026 Oscars will screen at one of the major festivals in the coming months. Places like Telluride, Venice, Toronto, and New York will serve as the springboard for many awards season campaigns. Admittedly, the 2026 Oscars are seven months away, and a lot can change from now until March 26. However, some movies have already begun their campaigns. Others have generated considerable buzz and will launch to the top of the race once they hit theaters. For now, let's break down the contenders and make our predictions. Sinners dominated the first half of the year The first half of the 2025 movie calendar will be remembered for one thing (besides chicken jockey): Sinners. Ryan Coogler's vampiric horror became a phenomenon. A $100 million budget for an original story presents a significant risk in today's Hollywood. Recommended Videos However, Sinners became an event, thanks to its savvy marketing campaign, sensational music, and IMAX format. Coogler's 10-minute video about aspect ratios was a stroke of genius, as it persuaded audiences to see it on the biggest screen possible. In the lead-up to the release, the trades began reporting what Sinners needed to make to be profitable. Puck's Matt Belloni set the Sinners' profitability line at $300 million. Released in April 2025, Sinners overperformed in its first weekend with an opening of $48 million in the United States and Canada. Sinners benefited from a strong word-of-mouth reception, resulting in a $45.7 million haul in its second weekend. With a 4.9% drop, Sinners had the third-best second-weekend performance for a film that made over $40 million. Critics also positively responded to Coogler's epic horror. 'Sinners is a fantastic and frightening masterpiece from one of cinema's best, most ambitious directors,' Digital Trends' Anthony Orlando wrote in his five-star review. Its box office success and critical acclaim make Sinners a serious awards contender, with a legitimate claim to be the frontrunner as of August 3. Sinners feels a lot like Get Out — a first-half-of-the-year release that will only gain more momentum in awards season. A Best Picture nomination should be a lock, along with screenplay and several below-the-line categories. Coogler should be in the running for Best Director. Can Michael B. Jordan get a spot in Best Actor? As of now, he's in, but we'll see how the rest of the year pans out. The 'It's Time' nominee One of the actors or directors this season will run an 'it's time' campaign. What does that mean? Every year, voters decide to reward one actor, actress, or director with a nomination to celebrate their respective career. 'It's time for their person to be recognized for their achievements.' Perhaps this person has not won a major award, or they've never been nominated. Last year, look at Demi Moore, who was fantastic in The Substance. The entire film community rallied around Moore, an actor for over 40 years, and propelled her to her first Oscar nomination. I look at three candidates this year who can run on the 'it's time' campaign. The first is Adam Sandler, and no, it's not for Happy Gilmore 2. The Sandman has never been nominated for an Oscar, with many citing Uncut Gems as the movie that should have resulted in a nomination. Sandler is one of the stars of Jay Kelly, Noah Baumbach's new movie for Netflix. George Clooney stars as Jay Kelly, a famous actor, while Sandler plays his manager. Early speculation is that Netflix will campaign hard for Sandler in the supporting actor category. Perhaps Sandler will become the next Laura Dern, who won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in Baumbach's Marriage Story. In that same supporting category, Stellan Skarsgård might be the favorite to win for his performance in Sentimental Value. Shockingly, Skarsgård has never been nominated for an Academy Award. Winning an Oscar for your first nomination would be a nice way to acknowledge Skarsgård for a fantastic career. The next candidate is Paul Thomas Anderson. PTA is back in the Oscars mix with his new film, One Battle After Another, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio. The action comedy carries the biggest budget — $140 million — of PTA's career. Someone who attended a test screening called the film 'bats— crazy,' which excites me even more. Anderson has 11 Oscar nominations and zero wins. It's time for PTA to get his little gold man. The Marty Supreme conundrum I said most, not all, of the contenders will be heading to the fall festivals. One of the noteworthy movies skipping the major festivals is Marty Supreme, Josh Safdie's A24 sports dramedy starring Timothée Chalamet. The movie is about Marty Mauser, a ping-pong hustler who becomes an integral figure in the world of table tennis. Marty Supreme is Safdie's first movie since the split with his brother Benny. Why would a potential contender skip the fall festival circuit? For starters, I don't think it's finished. A24 also has a lot riding on Marty Supreme financially. It has a $70 million budget, the most expensive film in A24's history. If A24 had to choose between profit and Oscars, my guess is they want Marty Supreme to be profitable. A24 wishes to make more movies with bigger budgets, and if Marty Supreme is a success, this will only support that decision to make bigger movies. However, A24 wants to have its cake and eat it, too. If Marty Supreme can turn a profit and win Oscars, they'll take it. Let's see if Chalamet can go on another generational press run like he did for A Complete Unknown. 2026 Oscars: Predictions Best Picture Avatar: Fire and Ash Bugonia Hamnet Jay Kelly Marty Supreme One Battle After Another Sinners* Sentimental Value Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere Wicked: For Good Best Director Paul Thomas Anderson, One Battle After Another Noah Baumbach, Jay Kelley Ryan Coogler, Sinners* Joachim Trier, Sentimental Value Chloé Zhao, Hamnet Best Actor Michael B.

Nosy Golden Retriever's Adorable Tantrum Over Sleeping Guests Is the Perfect Way to Start the Day
Nosy Golden Retriever's Adorable Tantrum Over Sleeping Guests Is the Perfect Way to Start the Day originally appeared on PetHelpful. Having guests over can require some planning, a little shopping, and lots of cleaning, but for dogs, it's a dream come true! Outgoing pups who love attention thrive when friends and family come to visit, just like Tobi the Golden Retriever. He and his fur brother, Ace, are typically the most polite hosts, but some early morning shenanigans on July 22 nearly woke up their guests! The dog's dad knew he had to capture the priceless moment on film when Tobi began throwing the most adorable tantrum over his sleeping guests. He was ready for them to wake up and start the day! The silly dog was more than willing to take matters into his own paws, even if he became his guests' new alarm clock. But just wait until you see who his guests are! Aww, what a sweet boy! His noises are too cute, even if he sounds more like a motorcycle than a dog. Tobi's sound effects would be an effective alarm clock to say the least, but not every house guest wants to be woken up with a drool and wet nose. Tobi is so excited to start another day with his guests, but he's a bit offended that they're still asleep. Luckily, he found the perfect solution to that problem! Even so, there's no way his dad was letting him wake everyone up on his own accord."How will they know sun is up unless I am breathing over them?" One commenter asked. That's precisely what Tobi is thinking! He knows his services are needed on the other side of the guest room door, but his dad is there to remind him that patience is a virtue. Fortunately for the nosy dog, his patience paid off beautifully once his friends woke up. Just wait until you see who they are! That smile says it all! I've never seen such a happy dog before, but it's almost hard to believe that this was the same pup grumbling up a storm while everyone was asleep. Clearly, he's one social dog! Needless to say, Tobi had a blast with his Yorkie and Labrador Retriever besties, though only time will tell if he'll ever live down this viral moment. Looking for more PetHelpful updates?
