Celeb in 5: Sunday's best entertainment and gossip news.

 

1. Before she married Prince William, Kate Middleton received some stern words from the Queen.

Kate Middleton was apparently on the receiving end of some “stern words” by the Queen before she married Prince William, which actually sounds kinda terrifying to us.

Imagine getting told off by the Queen.

According to royal expert and author Katie Nicholl, the Queen was critical of her “frivolous displays of wealth” and was worried about how her lavish lifestyle would be received by the British public during recession.

According to the author, the Queen was also concerned that Kate did not have a full-time job two years before she got engaged to Prince William.

Before she became the Duchess of Cambridge in 2011, Kate lived in the hoity-toity London neighbourhood of Chelsea with her younger sister Pippa, reports The Sun.

During this time, Kate apparently enjoyed numerous holidays with Prince William and was often seen frequenting exclusive bars and nightclubs in London - a lifestyle the Queen found "unpalatable".

Kate was taken aback by the criticism, according to Nicholl, but was advised "not to react publicly".

Yikes.

2. Fans believe Kylie Jenner is just hours away from becoming engaged to Travis Scott.

The nosey (and probably quite bored) people of the internet have cooked up a compelling theory in relation to Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott.

They are convinced they know exactly when they'll be engaged, and it's apparently in a few hours at the Superbowl.

Here's why:

1) Scott is performing at the halftime show with Maroon 5 and Big Boi, which would give him the perfect opportunity to flash something up on the big screen or incorporate something into a song. (Because that's, of course, how it's gotta go down when you're dating a Kardashian-Jenner and have a Kris Jenner on your back.)

2) Superbowl Sunday is a significant date for the couple. Last year on the same day, Kylie announced the couple had welcomed their daughter Stormi on Instagram.

3) Because we're old and uncool, we don't really understand what the 'fire proposal' Travis Scott is forever referring to actually means, but we feel like proposing live at the Superbowl in front of over 100,000 people (plus millions watching on TV worldwide) seems to fit the description?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

I guess we'll find out soon.

3. Inside the ridiculously fancy surprise engagement party Tobi Pearce threw for Kayla Itsines.

Fitness influencer and entrepreneur, Kayla Itsines, celebrated her engagement to her long-time partner, Tobi Pearce, with a surprise engagement party organised by her fiance, and the photos are stunning.

Sharing the details of the event, the currently pregnant 27-year-old said she and Pearce were flying back from Melbourne when he surprised her with the event.

"Last night we flew back from Melbourne and @tobi_pearce was silent in the car. I said 'I feel like something is weird'. He smiled and said '... you have an hour to get ready,'" wrote Itsines on Instagram.

"I said 'WHAT? .. for what? Where are we going'. He didn’t respond. He dropped me off at my friends dress shop, there was a makeup artist, hair dresser and five dress options on the table.

"I got ready, and got back in the car. He handed me a blindfold, 15 minutes later he walked me slowly into our house where he took OFF my blindfold and there was 130 family and friends around us in a marquee. I honestly just started crying!

"We’ve been so busy, I totally forgot to take a second to celebrate our life. It was such a beautiful night. Thank you to my amazing family and friends for making last night so beautiful!! Tobi, I love you with all my heart.

"As usual you’ve gone out of your way to make everything perfect and your speech was incredible. I can’t wait to marry you next year, thank you for all you do my chicken."

But enough words, here are all the photos from the fairy light drenched event...

4. Um. It looks like Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale could really be dating.

A few weeks ago as the final revellers nursed their hangovers from the Golden Globes after parties, rumours began swirling of a suspected romance between Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale.

And now, those rumours have apparently materialised into an actual relationship.

According to People, the comedian and the actress were seen flirting at the Netflix after party, despite both arriving with friends/wing-people. A source for the publication claims they talked "intently" for most of the event before being joined by Davidson's friend Machine Gun Kelly, as well as Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen.

Now, Harper's Bazaar reports Davidson and Beckinsale were again seen together leaving a LA club where Davidson was performing. There's also photos of them HOLDING HANDS.

Scandalous information, we know.
