You can’t deny that there is a lot of Kardashians and Jenners to keep track of these days. They are everywhere you look and there does not seem to be any slowing down.

Since Kylie’s many celebrations for her big 18 birthday, the famous family have been giving us all some serious holiday wardrobe envy as they prance around St. Barths.

Now there is some great news for anyone who considers the siblings to be their ultimate style icons.

The website The RealReal, have in stock items from the wardrobes of the Kardashians and Jenners. It seems like before their big family holiday they took the time clear out some closets. How nice of them.

 

 

 

 

So now you can actually own the pants Kendall wore during Paris Fashion Week. Or the spiked Louboutins Khloe wore to kick the shins of her enemies. That’s probably not what she did with them, but they do have that badass vibe going for them.

For anyone out there in need of both a taco fix and some Jenner style inspo, you can get your hands on Kylie’s Chanel clutch. Fancy, and also reminiscent of a tasty snack.

While the family might not fancy owning the pieces anymore, they are still quite the style guide, and really who wouldn’t want to own something the famous family have lived in. Imagine, you could be sweating into the same white tunic (from The Row, FYI) that Kendall did once upon a time.

Except not, because we all know that Kardashians don’t sweat, they glow. That’s how good their makeup skills are these days.

This is unsettling news from one couple that have been on quite the rollercoaster for the past month or so.

The fallout from the Ashley Madison website hack has been everywhere online for the last week. The site, whose slogan was “Life is short. Have an affair,” was marketed to allow people to cheat on their significant other with people they met online.

A hacker group was able to expose almost 39 million members of the site and allow their information to be accessed by the public. Meaning there were sites available whereby entering an individual’s email address would allow you to see if it was registered to the site.

Now it has been discovered that YouTube star Sam Rader had an account on the site.

Sam and his wife Nia made headlines with their ‘surprise pregnancy’ video earlier this summer. Only a few days after the video went viral, the couple posted another with the news that Nia had suffered a miscarriage.

According to the Daily Mail his name and mailing address were registered with the site since 2013. And yes, during that time he was married to Nia.

Sam had been hugely successful in marketing his Christian family values in his YouTube videos and had quit his job in order to become a professional video blogger.

He often blogs about wanting to be a “good man” to his wife. They pair have been married for almost six years and Sam wants to be “the kind of man I want my daughter to marry.”

The information came to light when someone posted the information on Twitter that Sam rader was registered user of the site.

Sam has insisted he never met anyone on the site and that God and Nia have forgiven him of his “fleshy desires.” You can see his response to the hack below:

For a while now there has been an awful lot of speculation that model Kendall Jenner and pop star Nick Jonas were something of an item.

Although neither have ever commented on their status, whatever that may be, until quite recently.

Anyone who was hoping for another all start Kardashian-Jenner family wedding special may be left slightly disappointed because the singer has finally spoken out about all those pesky rumours.

“We’re not dating,” Nick said to E! News. So, not they are not in fact a couple.

“Kendall is great and naturally with her being good friends with Gigi [Hadid] and with Joe [Jonas] and Gigi dating, there are times we’ll be in the same place and we all hang out.”

You make a good point Nick, but such is the fame game these days that any time a model and a boyband member are seen out an about together, people get excited.

Perhaps a good clue into their non-relationship status could have been the birthday party they both attended last week.

Joe Jonas was surprised by girlfriend Gigi with a huge party at the StubHub Center in L.A and while Nick and Kendall were both there and photographed, it doesn’t seem like they interacted much.

 

Thank you for the best surprise ever. I love All these people. #megasquad

Nick is currently in preparation for his VMA pre-show performance later this month. His single Levels will be heard love for the first time, so he’s apparently staying focused on his music and not so much the dating scene.

MTV News reports that since his split from long-time girlfriend Olivia Culpo he’s been keeping his romantic-life to a minimum:

“I [also] like being able to work as hard as I want. I’m incredibly driven and with all the projects I have going on, they take up a lot of my time. I like to work hard and just be as focused on work as possible.”

Yesterday in Cork, 2FM radio DJ Louise McSharry married her partner Gordon Spierin.

Earlier on this week Louise took to twitter to post the message “what a difference a year makes,” as it marked one year since she was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Louise received good news in March when her doctors informed her she was in remission.

The 32-year old took a brief break from radio but has since resumed her position on the air waves every weekday evening.

Leading up the big day the DJ gave us all an intimate look at her wedding preparations. One of which, the most important one we imagine, was watching Magic Mike on repeat the morning of her wedding.

The pair married in an intimate ceremony in the luxurious Ballinacurra House outside Kinsale.

The location is often noted for the privacy which it offers it’s guests. Set in a secluded and very pretty woodland, the beautiful house was one of the destinations sought by none other than Kanye West for his honeymoon with wife Kim Kardashian.

In 2006 the house was also famed after it was chosen by Michael Jackson as the location he chose to stay with his children. At the time he was hoping to stay somewhere quiet and private as a respite from the pressures of fame.

The Dublin native Louise admitted that the night before her wedding she slept in her ‘Yes Equality’ t-shirt, she admitted on twitter that “it only seemed right.”

Throughout the day she received huge numbers of supportive messages to congratulate her on the big day. 2Fm posted photos of the much-loved DJ in her beautiful gown on their twitter page for fans to see.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Made In Chelsea fans we are sorry to be the bearers of bad news but unfortunately it has come to pass.

Fan favourite, Spencer Matthews has reportedly quite the reality TV series.

Known for his serial-dating antics and less than chivalrous behaviour, Spencer has been on the receiving end of his fair share of slaps to the face. There has also been many a drink splashed across those cheekbones.

To be honest, we are not all that sad about that particular aspect of his departure because really, no one likes to see Prosecco wasted on a cheating boyfriend. Or do you?

According to Metro the 26-year old is intending on leaving the show in order to make his own reality series. He is said to be filming his final scenes with the MIC cast before he leaves for good later this year.

After four years on the show, “Spencer has had a brilliant time,” a source tells the Mirror.

“But this is his time to go. He is currently in the process of making his own reality programme which is going to be very funny.”

Apparently Spencer has gotten tired of people knowing him as only a ‘ladies-man’ and “now it’s time for people to see a different side of Spencer.”

His announcement comes as quite the blow for MIC fans as not too long ago another cast member confirmed his departure.

Stevie Johnson was a regular for 3 years and boyfriend of Stephanie Pratt, told his fans he was stepping back from his role on the show.

He explained: “I cannot offer the show as much as I used to, and whilst I always enjoyed having my whole life on camera for the viewers to see, I don’t want to continue if I can only give 50%."

Six months actress Live Tyler and her husband Dave Gardner welcomed their baby boy into the world. 

Until now the happy parents have kept all of the cute all to themselves, not that we blame them. But to be honest we were more than excited when Liv took to Instagram to share some adorable photos of the little dude this week. 

Her son Sailor, was clearly a hit with her half a million Instagram followers and we are not surprised. Have you seen his onesie? This is a baby with some serious style, you can't deny it. 

 

Meowww getting stronger !!!!! @davidgardner

Obviously loving motherhood Liv captioned the photos of her sweet little boy "In love".

Liv and Dave started dating last year and Dave seems to be more than happy to take on the role of doting dad. On his own Instagram account he shared a similar snap of Sailor and commented on the resemblance between Sailor and his mom.

The Leftovers star, 38, announced she was pregnant with her second child in September of last year. Throughout her pregnancy she stayed fairly open with her fans and often took to social media to share pregnancy stories and photographs.

Since Sailor's birth though she has remained quite secretive and has made an effort to keep him out of the public eye. While she has posted photos of Sailor on Instagram, until now none of them showed his face.

Which is probably why everyone is so excited this week because he is a very cute baby. 

Sailor has two big brothers, Milo, 10, and Grey,7, who are both children from the couples' previous marriages. He is also clearly BFFs with Jennifer Ansiton's husband Justin Theroux, with whom Liv stars along side in their new film.

This is literally the stuff of nightmares and we actually feel kind of bad for sharing this with you, but we wanted to warn those of you who may be in the vicinity of Limerick over the weekend. 

There is someone dressed as an absolutely terrifying clown running around the city and creeping up on people. 

We would probably pass out on the spot if this lad appeared behind us and we don't know how some people in the video can laugh it off so easily. 

This video was uploaded as promotional material for the upcoming Horror Mania Fest in Limerick. 

We sincerely apologise to those of you with a fear of clowns, look away now!

Had an extremely busy week and just plan on chilling out for the weekend? Yep, us too. 

Our plans include putting on our comfiest, fluffiest pjs and eating our body weight in snacks while we binge watch some Netflix. Sounds like heaven!

Here's a list of some light-hearted movies that will help you unwind and chill out after the week. 

Legally Blonde

This one doesn't require too much brain power to watch but it's an absolutely great watch. We can't lie, we all secretly wanted to go to law school and solve a murder case once we saw Elle do it with so much style. 

27 Dresses

What better way to forget about life's worries than to delve into the world of the woman who is always the bridesmaid and never the bride. Plus, Katherine Heigl is just too fab.

They Came Together

This genius movie is a p*ss take of every romantic comedy ever and it's hilarious. Our favourite comedians Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler star in it. 

Bridesmaids

If you need a good LOL, then this is the movie for you. This movie is comedy gold and it made it official that Kristin Wiig is our favourite person ever. 

Frozen

Because sometimes, you just gotta sing!

Have a great weekend everyone!
