1. MAFS’ Cathy had to pay for parts of her own fake wedding.

Married At First Sightmay have finished but that doesn’t mean the contestants are going to stay out of the celebrity news cycle. Of course not. They would like to continue to spill the tea on the controversial season, so grab some napkins and pull up a chair. We have goss.

Contestant Cathy Evans has shared exactly what expenses theMAFSproduction team covered for her [fake] wedding day.

“What they’d given us was definitely enough to cover just your basic needs,” the reality star recalled in a video on her new IGTV channel, where she has nearly 200,000 followers.

“With that money, I couldn’t get my hair done, or a spray tan or my nails done or anything like that. That was something I had to look after but they looked after accessories, the bridesmaids dresses and my own dress. My dress was from Mariana Hardwick.”

She added that she was able to keep the dress, and said she has decided to not sell it.

As for the wedding day, Cathy says she “didn’t get to plan or choose where my wedding was,” however added that she could tell the producers her preferences with what location and setting she wanted.

Cathy married Josh Pihlak onMarried At First Sight, and the two broke up while filming.

2. Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell have shared footage from their wedding special. And we’re trying to keep it together.

Days before the COVID-19 restrictions around weddings came into force in Australia, Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell called off their lavish wedding event and instead held a spur-of-the-moment ceremony at Australia Zoo.

Now, for all the die-hard romantics out there,Crikey! It’s the Irwins: Bindi’s Weddingwill be available to watch in Australia from Saturday, July 18, at 6:30pm on Animal Planet, via Foxtel.

The episode will bring an exclusive look at the wedding preparations and the ups-and-downs the couple faced along the way — notably, a global pandemic.

“We’re sharing every beautiful, challenging and special moment with you during this episode,” Irwin wrote alongside a trailer for the special, posted to her Instagram.

“I already have happy tears.”

The clip begins with footage of Bindi’s father, the late crocodile hunter Steve Irwin, playing with his daughter at a young age.

Bindi’s mum, Terri Irwin, says in the clip: “I know that Steve would be proud and pretty sure he’d be crying.”

The 21-year-old’s brother, Robert Irwin, is also seen walking his sister down the aisle, explaining to the camera that “it means so much” to do that for his sister.

The special will certainly be a tear-jerker. Grab the tissues.

3. “I feel very mean”: Even the future Queen Consort of England lies to her kids.

The Duchess Formerly Known as Kate Middleton has opened up about life in isolation. Speaking to theBBC,the Royal spoke about refocusing on the simpler things in life as well as how her family is coping at home.

“I think this time of slowing down has made us refocus the simple things that are more important in life. Stopping and listening, looking out for each other, simple acts of kindness and things like that. That’s so important,” she shared.

But after reflecting on this uncertain time, Middleton reminded us that, just like the rest of us, she lies to her kids.

When explaining how homeschooling is going, she shared a little secret with the whole wide world: they have continued schooling during the school holidays.

She said, “Don’t tell the children, we’ve actually kept it going through the holidays. I feel very mean. The children have got such stamina, I don’t know how.

“It’s just having that bit of structure actually. And it’s great, there’s so many great tips online and fun activities that you can do with the children, so it hasn’t been all hardcore.”

Further along in the video, Prince William made an appearance when asked how he felt after his father, Prince Charles, was diagnosed with coronavirus.

“‘I have to admit, at first I was quite concerned, he fits the profile of somebody, at the age he is at, which is fairly risky,” the Duke said.

But as Prince Charles has recovered from various colds in the past, he remained optimistic.

“My father has had many chest infections, colds, and things like that over the years. And so, I thought to myself, if anybody is going to be able to beat this, it’s going to be him,” he said.

4. Reese Witherspoon reflects on that “embarrassing” 2013 arrest.

It’s been seven years, but Reese Witherspoon still feels uncomfortable about that time she was arrested.

When appearing on Jameela Jamil’s podcast,I Weigh with Jameela Jamil,theBig Little Liesactress called her infamous run-in with the cops, “embarrassing and dumb.”

Jamil began by stating, “You apologised and shamed yourself in a way that was so f***ing refreshing to me. I loved your apology.”

But while Jamil found it refreshing, Witherspoon explained that she felt otherwise.

“But I did something really stupid,” Witherspoon began.

“It was so embarrassing and dumb,” she continued. “But, you know what — [it] turns out I breathe air. I bleed the same way. I make dumb decisions. I make great decisions. I’m just a human being.

“We’re all just the same as each other and we’re all trying to find what our special skills are. My special skill is storytelling but that doesn’t mean I’m a special person.”

The incident that led to Witherspoon’s arrest happened in April 2013.
