Paul Wesley's Dating History: Torrey DeVitto, Ines de Ramon, Natalie Kuckenburg and More
'Had the best time at @belmondcastellodicasole with my love @paulwesley 🤎,' she wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, July 16. 'Thank you so much for hosting us!'
Wesley and Kuckenburg have been together since fall 2022.
'There's two people that are the funniest people in my life — No. 1, my dog, and number two, frankly, my girlfriend,' Wesley told People in March 2024. 'I think the reason we get along so well is because all we do is laugh, and I think it's probably one of the most important things in a relationship.'
This will be Wesley's third marriage. The Star Trek: Strange New Worlds actor was previously married to Torrey DeVitto from 2011 to 2013 and Ines De Ramon from 2019 to 2022. The actor has also remained on good terms with DeVitto, 41, since their breakup.
'It was really for the best. He's lovely — we shouldn't have gotten married. We were really young when we met,' DeVitto, who is now married to Jared LaPine, said on the 'Pretty Little Liars: True Crime' podcast in May 2024. 'We were 22 and we were crazy. Two insane people getting married. We were young and wild.'
She added, 'Once I knew that it was time to go, I always wanted the best for him. I still want the best for him. I actually bump into him here and there. It's been so long.'
According to DeVitto, their divorce was especially 'hard.'
'It was the first time I went through something like that publicly,' the Pretty Little Liars alum recalled.

'Their decision to separate is mutual and occurred 5 months ago,' reps for the now-exes told Us Weekly in a September 2022 statement. 'They request privacy at this time.'
Wesley and de Ramon, who is currently dating Brad Pitt, finalized their divorce in March 2024.

'90 Day': Darcey Tones Herself Down to Please Georgi's 'Conservative' Family but He Fears She Isn't Taking the Trip Seriously

NEED TO KNOW On the July 20 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Darcey was focused on appearing more 'conservative' for Georgi's family as they prepared to travel to Bulgaria Though she was determined to tone down her look, Georgi feared she was not taking the trip seriously and urged her to hide her "big cleavage, your super shoes and your short skirt" Tensions hit a breaking point as Georgi ultimately confessed, 'I'm worried [about] what my family and friends [are] going to think about her and what [they're] going to think about me too, because she's my wife"Darcey toned her style down ahead of her trip to meet Georgi's family in Bulgaria, but he still worried she was not taking the trip seriously. On the July 20 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Darcey spent her final days before the trip doing whatever she could to appear more 'conservative' for Georgi's family — from getting new clothes to swapping out her old, long lashes for new, shorter ones. First, Darcey went shopping with her friend Roxy, who is also from Bulgaria, as she looked for some more appropriate clothing to wear on her upcoming trip. But some of the outfits Darcey liked, according to Roxy at least, still were not conservative enough for the culture in Bulgaria — including one black jumpsuit she tried on. 'I like this one!' Darcey exclaimed as she exited the dressing room. 'It feels conservative enough where it respects the family and the culture.' However, Roxy disagreed. 'You want to earn their respect,' she explained. 'Or they're going to send you back to America.' In a confessional, Darcey revealed she is 'scared, nervous and anxious' ahead of the trip. 'I don't know if his family is going to approve of me and accept me,' she explained. 'It's a lot of pressure.' Roxy said when she first met her partner's parents, 'it took a few trips until I earned their respect.' The first visit, she added, 'was probably the hardest one.' Roxy also suggested Darcey tone down her nails and remove her long eyelashes ahead of the trip. Darcey protested a bit, but ultimately agreed. She hoped that by toning down her look, she would show Georgi that she was 'putting in the effort to look a little bit more conservative.' But, she admitted in a confessional, 'it's definitely out of my comfort zone.' Darcey wound up pleased with the shorter lashes, which she received the next day. She suggested it felt like 'a good compromise,' and hoped Georgi would feel the same. 'I hope this is enough of a make-under for Georgi and his family because I love myself, I honor myself, and I'll only compromise so much,' she explained in a confessional. 'And if Georgi keeps pushing at it, it's going to affect our relationship because I'm not going to open up with a man that doesn't give me the respect I deserve.' During her lash appointment, Darcey said both she and Georgi 'need to put more time into celebrating each other in the marriage.' 'I feel like this is the perfect moment in time to really just embrace our marriage [and] our love life,' Darcey said in a confessional. 'Of course, I want to dress very respectfully for Georgi's family, but they're not going to be with us the whole time. So I want to pack some sexy things!' But back at home, as they packed for the trip, Georgi did not seem thrilled with some of the outfits Darcey had put together. 'Your boobs [are] out,' he stated as Darcey showed him the outfit she planned to wear on the plane. 'I'm going to have a jacket on the airplane!' Darcey protested as she donned a white fur coat, which she felt covered 'everything' it needed to. She argued that she had toned herself down 'a lot,' and pointed out her new lashes. But Georgi did not notice much of a difference, and seemed annoyed with his wife. 'Thank you Darcey, thank you for listening to me with [these] natural looking eyelashes,' he said in a confessional. 'I'm 100% sure my parents, they're not going to notice your big cleavage, your super shoes and your short skirt.' 'What's the big deal?' Darcey asked her husband, who noted this is not the first time he has told her how to dress appropriately for the trip. 'You don't respect what I say!' Georgi argued back, suggesting that people in Bulgaria might think she was a 'prostitute' or a 'w---' based on her outfits. Darcey disagreed, but Georgi insisted she was being 'disrespectful.' 'You don't really care about this trip, and that's why I'm upset' Georgi told his wife. In a confessional, Georgi said he was feeling 'overwhelmed about this trip.' 'I'm worried [about] what my family and friends [are] going to think about her and what [they're] going to think about me too, because she's my wife,' Georgi explained. Darcey tried to smooth things over. 'I don't want you to feel nervous!' she said before giving her husband a hug. 'I want you to care,' Georgi said, to which Darcey replied, 'I do care!' She then said 'I love you' in Bulgarian before they shared a quick kiss. Darcey and Georgi then headed for the airport and boarded their plane to Bulgaria. In an interview before taking flight, Darcey acknowledged that the trip 'means everything' to her husband. 'I want to give love,' Darcey explained. 'I'm a giver and want them to feel my love, that I care for their son, that I've always had his back and I just want to feel the same in return.'

In the movie, Aguilera plays Alice Marilyn, an aspiring singer who leaves her small Iowa hometown to pursue her dreams in Los Angeles. She soon becomes a dancer and cocktail waitress at a struggling burlesque lounge owned by Tess Scali, played by Cher. The 10-song Burlesque soundtrack — featuring music written and produced by Diane Warren, Sia, Tricky Stewart, Ron Fair, Linda Perry and Aguilera — reached No. 18 on the Billboard 200 albums chart in 2010. Burlesque the Musical made its world premiere in June at the Manchester Opera House and is now playing at London's Savoy Theatre through early September. Written and produced by Antin, the stage adaptation features songs by Aguilera and Sia, along with new music by Todrick Hall and Jess Folley. Earlier this year, Aguilera shared her excitement about the project. 'I'm proud that Burlesque the Musical is coming to London's West End!' she said in a statement. 'Our journey of making this film to bringing this show to the stage has been so special and exciting.
