Maren Morris opens up about difficulties after divorce; talks about co-parenting with her ex-husband
Maren Morris
, the American country singer, opened up about the difficulties after the divorce, and while the relationship has been 'friendly,' it has been weird.
Friendly but weird
During a podcast episode of Therapuss with Jake Shane, the singer revealed the intricacies of being divorced in a small town like Nashville, where she and her ex-husband, Ryan Hurd, have mutual friends.
'In Nashville, you know I've been divorced for a little over a year now. It's a small town, and we're all friends, and we all work together, and the music industry is very tiny there,' the 35-year-old artist said about her 38-year-old ex, according to People magazine.
The relationship between the two is friendly at a point, but it has been weird as their mutual friends had to pick sides after the split. 'Just in terms of respect for each other.
I saw a really close friend of my ex's at a bar a couple months ago, and I was with my best friend,' she explained, before adding, 'We all used to hang out together for a decade or more and then it's like, 'Damn, it's just going to be kind of weird.' Maybe it's just going to be weird for the first few years.
"
Maren Morris moved past the hurdles...
Morris and Hurd share a 5-year-old son, Hayes. Further in the episode, Maren revealed that fortunately, she and her ex had moved past the problems, keeping their son as their priority. 'We're over a year out now ... we get along now and have moved past a lot of it. We're neighbours, and I'm just so fortunate that we have put our son above each other's s—, and it's better for the two of us if we're getting along,' she said, adding that they have the highest respect for each other.

Indian Entrepreneur, Mona Patel Dazzles In Everything From Wine To Beige Gowns At The Jeff Bezos And Lauren Sanchez Wedding
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding was a grand grand affair. The couple painted Venice in hues of love as they embarked on a new journey together. Lauren's Dolce & Gabbana wedding gown commanded attention, but the high-profile guest list also served us some avant-garde fashion inspiration. Stealing the spotlight among them was Harvard educated Indian entrepreneur Mona Patel, who made heads turn in two stunning looks. Mona Patel is not new to making waves in the couture world and has consistently impressed the fashion police ever since she walked the Met Gala 2024 carpet in an Iris van Herpen gown with butterfly sleeves that worked with clockwork precision. Come 2025, Mona served up another sartorial treat at the MET Gala 2025 in a futuristically tailored and customised Thom Browne suit with a motor-style stitched in spine inspired design. The Indian-American tech entrepreneur and philanthropist made a grand entrance with a robotic dog on a diamond leash. No wonder Mona Patel hit the right sartorial notes at Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sanchez's joyful festivities. For the pre-wedding celebration, she played muse to Italian fashion label Dolce & Gabbana, much like the bride herself. The wine gown featured a bodycon fit that hugged her curves like a second skin. Lace and tulle which are the signature of the designer duo, Dolce & Gabbana dominated the floor-grazing silhouette. Delicate floral embroidery offered a feminine touch but the sheer elements and added to the subtle risque factor. Mona paired the turtleneck wonder with a structured black underdress separates. A bronzed glow on a dewy visage sculpted her face to finesse. Delicate diamond jewellery and a neatly secured updo rounded off Mona Patel's sleek avatar. She attended the celebrations alongside, her husband Dr Chintan Desai. Photo Credit: For the wedding which took place on June 27, 2025 Mona Patel weaved a princessy dream in a beige Georges Hobeika gown. It came with sleeveless details, plunging into a fitted bodice and further below into a ruffled hem. Specks of jewels and Swarovski on the bustier contributed to the extra dose of allure. They shimmered in a bright manner like stars delivering oomph and panache in equal measure. For her makeup game, Mona Patel opted for a soft glam look. She accessorised her look with diamond and stone-encrusted tear-drop earrings that glistened through her messy bun.

Video: Zohran Mamdani Gets Awkward As Host Plays His Old Clip In Apron During Live Show
Last Updated: In one of the visuals, Mamdani was seen rapping while wearing a only black apron. New York Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani was taken aback when his 2019 old rap video that showed him wearing an apron without anything underneath, was played during a live interview on global media outlet CNN. This happened when the 33-year-old politician appeared for Erin Burnett OutFront talk show. Show host Erin Burnett played the assemblyman's rap video suddenly. In the video, Zohran Mamdani, along with several others, was seen dancing at various locations, including inside a food truck. The video was posted on YouTube under the name of Mr. Cardamom. In the throwback video, the state assemblyman was joined by his friends and Indian-born British-American actress Madhur Jaffrey. In one of the visuals, Mamdani was seen rapping while wearing a only black apron. During the conversation, the anchor started playing videos from Mamdani's recent campaigns, including one in which he talked about his birth place and the story about how he got his middle name. As the interview progressed, a snippet from his appearance on The Breakfast Club podcast appeared on the screen. It was followed by Burnett introducing the politician's artistic side and playing the rap clip. As the rap continued, Mamdani, apparently shocked, tried to maintain his composure by smiling. However, eventually, he gave in, saying, 'I didn't think it was going to be on CNN." To which, the host replied, 'It's there and there it is." Later, the video was posted on the official X profile of the Erin Burnett OutFront show with a caption that read, Watch as #NYC Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mamdani watches his past performance as a rapper and responds to critics who say he's not ready to run New York. He speaks one-on-one with @ErinBurnett. Recently, Mamdani faced intense scrutiny from Tennessee Republican Congressman Andy Ogles who publicly questioned the legitimacy of his US citizenship, calling for his deportation if it was fraudulently obtained. Mamdani was born in Uganda to Indian parents and immigrated to the United States two decades ago and became a naturalized US citizen in 2018. Since 2020, he has served in the New York State Assembly and recently clinched the Democratic nomination for mayor of New York City.

Lauren Sanchez Marries Jeff Bezos In A White Lace Tulle Dolce & Gabbana Vintage Gown
American journalist, Lauren Sanchez is finally married to Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos. The couple tied the knot on Friday, June 27, 2025 at a grand ceremony in Venice, Italy. As the duo started a new chapter in their lives, all eyes were on Lauren's gorgeous wedding gown. It was the Italian luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana that had the honour of turning her into the perfect and dreamy bride. Lauren Sanchez did not push the boundaries with a modern silhouette. Instead, the 55-year-old embraced the timeless glamour by taking the vintage route. Her pristine white Dolce & Gabbana number was inspired by veteran Hollywood actress Sophia Loren's gown in the 1958 film Houseboat that she wore to marry Cary Grant. The bodice featured a boned corset structure with a sweetheart neckline. It was blanketed in a semi-sheer, floral lacework extending to a high neck and long sleeves. According to Vogue, the fitted wonder was crafted with 180 chiffon-covered buttons that traced a line up the middle that was unconventionally regal, much like the bride Lauren herself. But this isn't all, Lauren has even become the newest coverstar for American Vogue, clad in her bridal avatar. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lauren Sánchez Bezos (@laurensanchezbezos) Cinched around the waist, the designer wear plunged into an ethereal and fluted mermaid gown with a long and voluminous train, sweeping the floor dramatically. Scalloped at the hem with exquisite flower-adorned embroidery dominated the skirt, serving femininity on another level. Lauren Sanchez's hourglass frame was on full display in the close-to-skin number. As far as the netted veil was concerned, it had intricate, hand-appliqued lace and tulle details all over that served some much-needed pizzazz. What's more, the entire outfit took a whole 900 hours to handcraft into reality. In Lauren Sanchez's words, her nuptial ensemble was 'not just a gown (but) a piece of poetry' and we couldn't agree more. The credit lied in the magic of the one and only designer duo, Dolce & Gabbana. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lauren Sánchez Bezos (@laurensanchezbezos) With the tailored gown stealing the spotlight, Lauren Sanchez resorted to only a pair of crystal earrings and her huge solitaire ring for jewellery. Minimal glam makeup and a messy updo sealed her bridal glam. Lauren Sanchez made for a pretty perfect bride in the Dolce & Gabbana gown.
