The pair have worked hard to keep their relationship under wraps, but Vanity Fair reported in January that they had been dating "quietly" for over a year.

A year ago, Elizabeth Olsen referred to Robbie Arnett as her husband, which got the rumor mill going. However, the pair hadn't confirmed that they are in fact a married couple until now.

"We, luckily, timed things out, accidentally, really well," the WandaVision actress said, commenting on the influence of the pandemic at the time. "Everything was so backed up. You couldn't even, like, try to get married then. But it ended up working out."

Kim Kardashian is facing some legal trouble regarding her new skincare like, SKKN by Kim. A black-owned and Brooklyn-based small business called Beauty Concepts is claiming ownership over the name.

Apparently, Beauty Concepts provides salon services under the name SKKN+. The LLC sent a cease and desist letter to Kardashian's legal team, with the company's founder, Cyndie Lunsford, saying she's owned the SKKN+ name since 2018.

Kardashian's attorney called the claims a "shakedown effort," saying, "This lawsuit is not what it seems."

He continued, "We applaud Ms. Lunsford for being a small business owner and following her dreams. But that doesn't give her the right to wrongfully claim that we've done something wrong. In its letter, Beauty Concepts claimed to own rights to a logo made up of SKKN+, and had just filed for trademark protection for that logo."

"The business was a one-person shop offering facials from a single Brooklyn location. The salon had no signage and was by appointment only. To our knowledge, Beauty Concepts sold no products under the SKKN+ name," he added.

Chris Pratt opened up to Men's Health about the backlash he received last year for a "just because" post he made for his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt. The Jurassic Park actor said people's responses "bothered" him and that he even "cried" about it.

Pratt was criticized for writing in honor of Schwarzenegger: "She's given me an amazing life, a gorgeous healthy daughter, she chews so loudly that sometimes I put in my ear buds to drown it out, but that's love!" Fans thought his "healthy daughter" comment was a slight to his ex-wife, Anna Faris, since their nine-year-old son, Jack, was born prematurely and experienced a number of health issues.

"I said something like, 'Find someone who looks at you the way my wife looks at me.' And then I gave her some s— in the thing and said, 'But I love you. I'm so thankful for my wife — she gave me a beautiful, healthy daughter.' And then a bunch of articles came out and said, 'That's so cringeworthy. I can't believe Chris Pratt would thank her for a healthy daughter when his first child was born premature. That's such a dig at his ex-wife,'" he told the magazine.

"I'm like, That is f—d up. My son's gonna read that one day. He's 9. And it's etched in digital stone. It really f—ing bothered me, dude. I cried about it. I was like, I hate that these blessings in my life are — to the people close to me — a real burden," Pratt said.

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Dakota Johnson opened up about her time on the set of 50 Shades of Grey. The Lost Daughter actress revealed that she "signed up to do a very different version of the film we ended up making."

"I'm a sexual person, and when I'm interested in something, I want to know so much about it. That's why I did those big naked movies," she said.

However, Johnson said this film had its challenges. "I was young. I was 23. So it was scary. It just became something crazy. There were a lot of different disagreements," she shared.

Johnson continued, "I haven't been able to talk about this truthfully ever, because you want to promote a movie the right way, and I'm proud of what we made ultimately and everything turns out the way it's supposed to, but it was tricky."

When asked if she ever regretted starring in the franchise, she said, "If I had known at the time that's what it was going to be like, I don't think anyone would've done it. It would've been like, ‘Oh, this is psychotic.' But no, I don't regret it."
