Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHE was the Apple of dad Steve Jobs' eye, so when the tech billionaire's youngest daughter Eve marries her British showjumper boyfriend Harry Charles this weekend, there will be no expense spared. Insiders said her mother Laurene — wife of the iPhone pioneer, who passed away aged 56 in 2011 — has gone all out for the wedding, with Sir Elton John booked to perform. 9 Steve Jobs' youngest daughter Eve will marry her British showjumper boyfriend Harry Charles this weekend Credit: Getty 9 Eve started dating Olympic gold medallist Harry in 2022 Credit: Instagram 9 Steve Jobs with his children Eve, Reed, Erin, and wife Laurene Powell Kim and Khloe Kardashian are reportedly on the guestlist and an entire village in Oxfordshire will go on lockdown from tomorrow. A source said: 'Eve and Harry's wedding is like a multi-million-pound fairytale on steroids. 'It's a society wedding like no other and it's turning rural Oxfordshire upside down. 'The sleepy village in which it's taking place feels like it's turning into a no-go zone, with secret service operatives and blokes who look like they work for the FBI.' read more on eve jobs JOBS A GOOD'UN Inside glam world of Apple genius Steve Jobs' model daughter Eve They added: 'This is a very quiet place not far from the Cotswolds. Everyone is used to tourists and famous faces, but this is something else.' Eve, 27, and Harry, 26, who we revealed got engaged last September, are understood to be planning a decadent, four-day celebration starting tomorrow. They are set to be joined by equestrian Jessica Springsteen — daughter of megastar singer Bruce — Apple designer Jony Ive, and Sofia Abramovich, whose dad Roman used to own Chelsea Football Club. It is understood guests will fly in on their private jets to Oxford airport this week, with helicopters on standby to transport them directly onto the grounds of the house where the couple will marry. Steve Jobs introduces the original iPhone in 2007 'The wedding is being planned like a military operation,' our insider said. 'The itinerary is scheduled so precisely, with guests starting to arrive all this week before the wedding celebrations begin on Thursday. 'Kamala, Kim and Khloe Kardashian and Bill Gates' daughters, Phoebe and Jennifer, are all on the VIP guest list. 'Matt Helders from the Arctic Monkeys has been invited, too. It's an eclectic mix of stars and will be like a 'who's who' of the rich and famous. 'There are a lot of important American political figures going to be there. No doubt they'll all be Googling each other.' Locals revealed that, over the weekend, enormous trucks had started to slowly chug through the sleepy villages surrounding the wedding's top-secret location, before being parked up close to the estate. As well as carrying supplies for the enormous wedding bash — claimed to carry a price tag close to £50million — equipment for star act Elton is understood to be on site. 'Elton is booked to perform for an hour,' our mole added. 'He will play a selection of his songs, including some of Eve and Harry's favourites. 9 Harry made his Team GB debut at Tokyo in 2020 and won the team jumping gold himself at the Paris Olympic games last year Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 9 Steve was keen for his children to carve out their own paths and success Credit: Rex 'A concert from Elton doesn't come cheap. Apparently they've forked out over £1million to have him perform. " It's going to be incredibly special.' Eve and Laurene didn't plan the behemoth nuptials alone, with events planner to the stars Stanlee Gatti understood to have been drafted in. He was the brains behind American Ivy Getty's extravagant 2021 wedding to Tobias Engel — where Earth, Wind & Fire performed — and has helped Elton put together his famous Oscars' after-parties over the years. 'Every final detail of the big day has been signed off by Eve and Harry, but this is Stanlee's baby,' our source explained. 'It's the meeting of two soulmates from across the Atlantic and that will be reflected in the wedding, too. 'The vibe is upper class English luxury with a cool, modern American vibe. It's going to be like nothing anyone at the wedding has experienced before.' Eve, the youngest of Apple founder Steve's four children, started dating Olympic gold medallist Harry in 2022. After studying science, technology and society at Stanford University in California, Eve moved into fashion and made her modelling debut in 2021 at Paris Fashion Week, walking for fashion house Coperni alongside stars including Gigi Hadid. 'FUNNY FIRECRACKER' She was later named by society bible Tatler as one of their 'new generation of It Girls' after signing to DNA Model Management. Eve has also appeared as a model in Vogue and Vanity Fair, and worked with big brands including Louis Vuitton. Harry, the son of London 2012 team jumping gold medallist Peter Charles, was raised in Hampshire and followed his father into a career in equestrian sport. He made his Team GB debut at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020 and also won the team jumping gold at the Paris Games last year — with Eve spotted cheering him on in the stands at the Chateau de Versailles. The pair went public with their romance that day, with Harry later popping the question. Insiders said the pair bonded over their love of horses, with Eve an accomplished rider in her own right. She has competed internationally at Grand Prix level and won a bronze medal at the 2019 Pan American Games in Peru while a student at university. That same year, she was ranked fifth out of the world's best 1,000 riders under the age of 25 by Horse Sports. Eve and Harry have rarely spoken about one another publicly, but after picking up his gold in Paris last year, Harry told Tatler he was keen to spend time with the heiress to take in his achievements. When quizzed on what his plans involved, he revealed: 'Go over to the States. Spend some time with my girlfriend, Eve. 'We're just going to sit and enjoy and reflect on it.' 9 Kim and Khloe Kardashian are expected to attend the nuptials Credit: Splash 9 Eve and her mother Laurene at the 2023 TIME100 Gala Credit: Getty Last month, Eve flew out to Capri in Italy for a lavish hen party alongside pals including Phoebe Gates and Olympian Eileen Gu. She shared photographs from the getaway with Harry's sister Scarlett, as well as Harry's mum Tara. The group stayed in a luxury villa during their break as well as sailing on a yacht. Harry's stag party has been far more under the radar, with the showjumper hard at work in the run-up to the wedding after he competed at the Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix in Monaco earlier this month. Eve's siblings — her brother Reed, sister Erin and half-sister Lisa — are also understood to be attending, along with Harry's close and extended family. Throughout last night, the preparations for the big day continued, with guests expected to start touching down from tomorrow. Laurene, who founded The Emerson Collective, which invests in entrepreneurs, is believed to be overseeing events for their youngest daughter. The pair previously discussed not passing his enormous wealth down to the children, with Steve keen for them to carve out their own paths and success. Laurene told The Times in 2020: 'I'm not interested in legacy wealth buildings, and my children know that. "Steve wasn't interested in that. This might be the UK's most expensive society wedding, but there will be some incredible personal touches Wedding insider 'If I live long enough, it ends with me.' Prior to his passing, Steve spoke of his hopes for Eve in his authorised biography, calling her 'funny firecracker.' Our insider added: 'Toasts will be raised and those who are no longer with Eve and Harry will be celebrated. 'This might be the UK's most expensive society wedding, but there will be some incredible personal touches. 'The family's dedication to philanthropy will also come into play. 'It's the biggest day of Harry and Eve's lives — and they are going to make sure all of their guests go home with some amazing memories.' 9 Elton John has reportedly been paid over £1million to perform Credit: Getty 9 Matt Helders from the Arctic Monkeys is also on the guest list Credit: Getty Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club.

Coldplay kiss cam ‘mistress' Kristin Cabot and husband took out a $1.6m mortgage on ‘fixer upper' just FOUR months ago
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE alleged mistress at the center of the Coldplay kiss cam scandal took out a $1.6million mortgage on a fixer upper she purchased with her husband, The U.S. Sun can reveal. HR chief Kristin Cabot, caught cuddling with now-former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, is married to another Andrew, a sixth-generation heir to the Privateer Rum fortune. 5 Agonizing moment tech CEO Andy Byron is caught allegedly cheating with his HR chief at a Coldplay gig Credit: tiktok/instaagraace 5 Kristin Cabot and her husband Andrew bought this multi-million-dollar home earlier this year and took out a mortgage Credit: Google Maps 5 Kristin Cabot is seen with her husband Andrew Cabot, and his two children Credit: Facebook The Cabots purchased a $2.2 million home on the New Hampshire coast in March and did not buy it in cash. Documents obtained by The U.S. Sun show the couple took out a mammoth loan on the house with Morgan Stanley, and both of their names are on paperwork for the mortgage. They are yet to be seen in public since the clip went viral, and it is not known whether or not they have split. A mortgage could make any divorce messy, as both parties will be responsible for payments, regardless of who lives in the house. They may need to sell up or have one party refinance to take over the loan. Research shows a quitclaim deed can also transfer ownership, but it doesn't remove liability from the mortgage. The lavish four-bed, two-bath residence is described online as being a "classic New England gem" which is ready to be brought back to its former glory. It is not known if the couple had started spending money on renovations for the property or had hired anyone to make plans for them. WORK TO BE DONE The residence is located just two miles from the beach and was sold "as is" as the home "needs rehab." It sits on 1.42 acres, with fruit trees, berry bushes, and pastoral views. Coldplay fan who filmed CEO 'cheating' with HR chief at gig takes swipe at couple The property also boasts high ceilings, a wrap-around enclosed porch, a walk-up attic, and a two-car garage. Andrew's family lineage stretches back ten generations in New England and includes privateers, industrial titans, and merchant traders who helped shape American aristocracy, according to reports. The Cabots are one of Boston's original "Brahmin" families - a blue-blooded elite so powerful that even the Kennedy clan was considered too new-money to join their ranks. The family made its fortune in "carbon black" - soot used in car tires - and held vast holdings in Cabot Corporation. Their empire has included chemicals, paint, gas, and rum, with Kristin once serving as an "advisory board member" for Privateer. They have not been seen since the scandal broke when a TikTok clip went viral of Kristin's boss wrapping his arms around her at the concert during a romantic moment on the big screen. This appears to be the second marriage for both — Kristin's prior divorce was finalized in 2022, the New York Post reports. Meanwhile, the former Astronomer CEO, who has now resigned, and his wife, Megan, is also said to be in hiding, according to the Daily Mail. COLDPLAY'S JOKE Mom-of-two Megan allegedly fled the couple's main residence in Northborough, Massachusetts, and has been staying at their second home in Kennebunk - more than 100 miles away. She has reportedly removed several happy family photographs from her Facebook profile and reverted to her maiden name, Kerrigan. While some found the viral moment funny, other neighbors allegedly slammed Byron's actions as "disgusting." Neither of the couples has commented on the recent scandal. Frontman Chris Martin noticed the couple's not-to-subtle reaction to appearing on the jumabatron, but clearly had no idea who they were. He cheekily joked, "They're either having an affair… or they're very shy," as Krisitin hid her face and turned around, while Andrew ducked behind a barrier. Martin added, laughing nervously, 'Oh s***, I hope we didn't do something bad." At the band's following show, the singer cracked a joke with another couple on the kiss cam after the scandal was trending on X, formerly Twitter for more than 24 hours. Kristin has reportedly been placed on leave, while her boss has been replaced. Pete DeJoy stepped into the role and said the viral incident has received "a level of media attention that few companies - let alone startups in our small corner of the data and AI world - ever encounter." He wrote on LinkedIn, "The spotlight has been unusual and surreal for our team and, while I would never have wished for it to happen like this, Astronomer is now a household name." DeJoy added that despite the chaos, the company has "never shied away from challenges" - from the Covid-19 pandemic to navigating financial issues. He continued, "And yet, we're still here. "We're here because Astronomer is built by people who live to solve hard problems, stay late to fix what's broken, and care deeply about doing things the right way. "We're here because our customers trust us with their most ambitious data & AI projects. And, most importantly, we're here because the mission is bigger than any one moment." Byron had been CEO of Astronomer - valued at over $1.3 billion - since July 2023. 5 Fans were quick to identify the pair after the clip went viral on TikTok Credit: tiktok/instaagraace 5 Andrew Byron did everything he could to try and hide his face in te moment Credit: tiktok/instaagraace

Nicole Scherzinger: New music series shows Liam Payne ‘in his element'
Payne, who was best known for being one of the five former members of One Direction, died aged 31 in October 2024 when he fell from a third floor balcony at a hotel in Argentina. Prior to his death, he filmed as a guest judge on the Netflix competition series alongside Destiny's Child singer Kelly Rowland, host AJ McClean, and mentor Scherzinger. Speaking on The View, American actress and singer, Scherzinger, 47, said her favourite memory of the late singer was his 'heart'. Liam Payne attending the Fashion Awards 2022 held at the Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Gore, London (Ian West/PA) She said: 'When you watch the show, you'll see little glimpses of him after he's talking, or things where you just catch him off guard and it's when he smiles. 'He smiles with his eyes. It's like he's giving you a hug, like he's embracing you and holding you. 'Liam just had such a beautiful, beautiful heart. And I'm so happy that people get to remember him and see him in his light and in his element, giving back because he lived it.' The series has been described as a 'music experiment' where 50 singers must form a band without seeing or meeting one another. Nicole Scherzinger attending the WhatsOnStage Awards at the London Palladium (Ian West/PA) Payne was a former member of the pop group, One Direction, which was formed on The X Factor in 2010 with the help of Scherzinger who was a mentor on the series. The boy band, which consisted of Payne, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan and Harry Styles, became one of the biggest pop groups in the world, with five albums and four world tours, until they went on an indefinite hiatus in 2016. Payne went on to launch his solo career and released his debut solo album LP1 in December 2019. The album included the songs Polaroid with Lennon Stella and Jonas Blue; Strip That Down featuring Quavo; as well as the track For You, with Rita Ora.
