The Bachelor: After All the Drama, Here's Where Cassie and Colton's Relationship Stands
After Cassie left Colton on The Bachelor, it wasn't clear whether or not they had a future together as a couple. Now, fans know that the two of them are in love - but they're not engaged just yet. Colton gave Cassie a symbolic "final rose" at the live show on Tuesday, but there wasn't a proposal. It sounds like the couple are just enjoying dating and taking their relationship one step at a time.
Still, even though they're not engaged, it sounds like the two of them are on more equal footing now than they were during the show's filming. In a clip of Colton and Cassie's relationship post-Spain, Cassie read him one of her old diary entries she'd written on the show. It was clear how much she felt for him, even back then - and she added a new message about her current feelings, too. "I want you to know that I love you more than anything, and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world," Cassie said to Colton in the clip.
During the live show, Cassie also told Chris Harrison that engagement is "definitely something we've talked about," referring to her and Colton. The couple also shared that Colton has moved to Los Angeles to be closer to Cassie, but they aren't living together just yet.
And as for the question that The Bachelor's been incessant about - to the point of being really uncomfortable - this season, it sounds like Colton is no longer a virgin. He didn't share details about his and Cassie's fantasy suite or their physical relationship after the show's filming, but he also didn't deny that something's happened between them.
Frankly, it's not fans' business (and never was), but the finale in particular really wouldn't let the topic go. Hopefully, now that these two are free to share their love without the cameras rolling, the discussion surrounding Colton's virginity is long in the past.
Chris Harrison Called This Bachelor Finale the "Most Dramatic Ending Ever" - He Might Be Right
Though it may have seemed like we were never going to make it to this point, this is it, fam! Colton Underwood's season of The Bachelor is officially over. Considering how much of a roller coaster this season has been, it's no surprise that the finale was as drama-packed as two, two-hour episodes could be. Not only did Colton have the producers racing after him through the Portuguese countryside, but he also made a huge decision early in the episode that changed the course of the entire finale. Keep reading for some of the biggest moments from Monday and Tuesday's two-night finale.
Yes, Colton Picked Cassie on The Bachelor, and Yes, Fans Are Losing It on Twitter
To the surprise of absolutely no one, Colton Underwood's season finale of The Bachelor ended with the former NFL player reuniting with Cassie Randolph, the woman who dumped him just one episode prior.
Tuesday night's episode picked up where we left off during part one of the finale, with Colton arriving at Cassie's hotel room door despite jumping over a fence following their heartbreaking date mere days earlier. Even though the 23-year-old had decided to self-eliminate after realizing that she didn't have the same deep feelings that Colton did for her, she soon had a change of heart when Colton confessed that he'd ended things with Tayshia and Hannah G.
Luckily for Colton, his grand gesture was worth it, and the pair sealed the deal by spending the night together after a romantic dinner that involved talking about their future together, sans engagement. (Did he lose his virginity? Well, Colton said "a gentleman never kisses and tells," but they both seemed pretty damn happy about it the morning after.)
Colton and Cassie appeared on the "After the Final Rose" special hand in hand afterward, telling host Chris Harrison that they're still not engaged, but they're happy where they're at right now. "We still have a lot of conversations to have and room to grow," Colton said. "We're having fun dating right now."
While some fans are over the moon for Cassie and Colton, a few others still aren't convinced that the bond the couple shares is one that will last. Check out how Bachelor Nation is reacting to Colton's big decision, ahead!

What Is Bachelorette Star Hannah Brown's Job? She's Way More Than Just Miss Alabama
After plenty of speculation from fans, ABC has announced that Hannah Brown is the next Bachelorette star. Hannah didn't get Colton's final rose, but she won audiences over with her Southern charm. So, what does Hannah do when she's not on camera in the Bachelor-verse? It turns out she works as an interior decorator.
Hannah's official Bachelor bio lists her job as being Miss Alabama USA 2018. And while she does hold that title proudly, it's far from being the only thing she's known for. According to her LinkedIn page, Hannah works as an interior decorator at a company called Gracefully Done in Northport, AL. (That puts her in good company with her Bachelor pal Demi, whose Bachelor bio lists her occupation as being an interior designer.)
Based on her LinkedIn page, it looks like Hannah takes her decorating work seriously. She includes photos of living rooms she's worked on to showcase her talent. And it looks like she's been with Gracefully Done since 2017, the year she graduated from The University of Alabama. Brown is even featured on Gracefully Done's website, so it seems her decorating work is integral to the team.
Aside from being an interior decorator, it looks like Hannah is a bit of a makeup buff, too. Her LinkedIn profile notes that she's been a "freelance makeup artist/hairstylist" since April 2016. Taking part in pageants definitely taught Hannah a thing or two about makeup, and it looks like she's using that to her advantage outside the competitions, too.
When she's not on The Bachelorette or competing in pageants, Hannah is also a mental health advocate. A 2018 article from Alabama NewsCenter explains that Hannah has "struggled with anxiety and depression," and she's now outspoken about mental health in order to help others. Hannah's compassion for others makes her a great choice for The Bachelorette, and it looks like this season will be plenty of fun with Hannah Beast at the helm.
Hannah B. Is Officially Our New Bachelorette - Meet Her First 5 Suitors!
Hannah Brown is officially the new Bachelorette, and the announcement was a little more exciting than she expected! Her role as The Bachelor spinoff's leading lady was announced during Colton Underwood's "After the Final Rose" special, where we saw the former NFL player show Bachelor Nation that he is happily committed to Cassie Randolph. Host Chris Harrison revealed that Hannah will be taking over the position previously held by Becca Kufrin (who's still engaged to her final suitor, Garrett Yrigoyen) and will star in the show's next season, due later this year.
But it wasn't enough to just make an announcement - Chris told Hannah that she would actually be meeting her first five contestants that very night! The stage was quickly transformed into a rose ceremony setting fit for the Bachelor mansion, and Hannah was quickly introduced to five of her 30 male suitors. In a surprise twist, Hannah even handed out her first rose, which Chris was quick to point out has never happened before. We can't say if Hannah has already fallen in love, but we can say that she's definitely in for a wild ride. Check out the five suitors ahead!
Hannah Brown Has an Instagram Account Fit For a Bachelorette
Well, did you see this coming? Hannah Brown is the new leading lady on The Bachelorette! We have to learn all we can about the beauty queen as we gear up for season 15 - hey, it's called research. The 24-year-old certainly gives us a look into her life on her Instagram feed, but we know that's only a glimpse, and we're excited to get to know the real her as she searches for her happily ever after.
Hannah didn't have the smoothest journey on The Bachelor. Her feud with fellow beauty queen Caelynn Miller-Keyes stemmed from way before the show and carried on to the mansion. But Hannah and Caelynn have since put that behind them, and Hannah is ready to focus on love. "It didn't happen for me with my first time around, but I do believe that it can happen," she said during part two of The Bachelor season finale when she was announced as the next Bachelorette.

Sheila and Joel Are Back and Bloodier Than Ever in Santa Clarita Diet's Season 3 Trailer
It seems to be business as usual in Santa Clarita Diet's season three trailer . . . by which we mean Sheila (Drew Barrymore) and Joel (Timothy Olyphant) are still luring Nazis and other criminals to their kill room so that Sheila can attack and eat them. An average, totally normal couple activity, right? Fortunately, Sheila has a few reservations . . . well, kiiiiind of. ("I want to be about more than just eating people, but I also really enjoy eating people," she says.)
This time around, in addition to figuring out how they can sustain Sheila's gruesome habit, the couple also begins to realize the full ramifications of what her being a member of the undead truly means: she's immortal. Since Joel very much isn't, will he let his wife bite him so they can live together forever? Watch the trailer above to get a taste of what they'll be going through before Santa Clarita Diet season three arrives on March 29.

Colton's Breakups During The Bachelor's Season Finale Were Absolutely Brutal
Warning: spoilers for The Bachelor ahead!
Part one of The Bachelor's season finale aired on Monday night, and it included a number of highly dramatic moments. No, we didn't get to find out if Colton ultimately ends up with Cassie, but the show did pick up exactly where we left off last week: with Colton jumping over that fence. Once the show repeated the fence-jump moment about 6 trillion times, accompanied by footage of Colton sobbing as he speed-walked through the dark countryside in Portugal, we moved on to the episode's more emotional scenes - the big breakups he had to carry out after professing his love for Cassie.
Since Colton spent all of the previous episode saying that he didn't want anyone else in the competition other than Cassie, it was nice to see that he wasn't taking it back all of a sudden even though she rejected him; instead, he knew he had to break up with the remaining two women - Tayshia and Hannah G. - because he knew in his "heart of hearts" that he couldn't "be in love with more than one person."
First up was Tayshia, whom Colton surprised in her hotel room in Portugal. Since she'd been with him in the overnight Fantasy Suite date just a day before, she was thrilled to see him. However, things quickly took a turn when Colton told her the real reason he was there. He explained that he was in love with Cassie - which earned him a very tense (and warranted) "Mhmm" in response - and then Tayshia asked if they could step inside to chat things out away from all the cameras.
The pair still had their mics on (of course), so audiences were able to listen in to everything that went down between the two. The result? Well . . . mostly it was a back-and-forth of muffled cries and apologies from Colton, who promised he never meant for this to happen.
He said similar things to Hannah G. when he stopped by her room after chatting with Tayshia, but their conversation got a lot more heated. The interaction began with a confessional from Hannah, who said she'd just finished writing a love letter and was ready to finally say that she was in love with him. Unfortunately, he burst her bubble pretty much immediately after that, telling her, "I thought it was gonna be you."
"I really thought it was for sure going to be us," she tearfully responded, clearly blindsided. "I don't know how to take this right now."
The real fire from Hannah came when Colton told her that she made him "better."
"That's what I do. I make everybody better, and they don't want to stick around," she said. "I'm so angry right now. I think I just want to get out of here because I'm so embarrassed . . . I didn't think it was possible for there to be a better connection than what we had."
Even though he told her that she doesn't "deserve to be anybody's backup plan," Hannah told him, through tears, to leave. She wasn't the only one crying, though - as soon as he left her room, Colton had a breakdown in the hallway, needing to be consoled by a producer on the show. "That's literally how much I love Cassie - I'm willing to walk away from someone that great," he sobbed.
The level of messiness involved in these breakups naturally has Bachelor Nation in an uproar. See the best reactions to both Hannah and Tayshia's exits, ahead.
OMG: Amber and Prince Richard Are Having a Baby in Netflix's Third Christmas Prince Film
First, we watched Amber (Rose McIver) and Prince Richard (Ben Lamb) fall in love in A Christmas Prince. Then, Netflix blessed us all by making a second film, all about Amber and Richard's wedding. And now? The royal couple are welcoming a baby!
On Monday, the streaming platform announced that a third film in the series is on the way, titled A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby. Netflix's official description reads: "It's Christmastime in Aldovia - and a royal baby is on the way! Amber and Richard host royals from a faraway kingdom to renew an ancient truce, but when the priceless 600-year-old-treaty disappears, peace is put in jeopardy and an ancient curse threatens their family!"
An ancient curse?! A faraway kingdom?! A vanishing treaty?! It sounds like dirty diapers are going to be the least of the prince and princess's worries. As we all await for the movie to premiere - we have months to go, people - check out Richard and Amber's crown-wearing (and mildly creepy) unborn child in the sonogram announcement ahead.

Did You Realize This Actor Has 2 Roles in Captain Marvel? We Sure Didn't
Marvel's latest film, Captain Marvel, has a cast packed with major Hollywood names. Since much of the film focuses on the conflict between two alien races - the Skrull and the Kree - many of those big-name actors spend some serious time with their recognizable faces obscured beneath layers of prosthetics and makeup. One such actor is Ben Mendelsohn, the Emmy-winning actor who plays Talos, one of the shapeshifting Skrulls who plays a key role in Captain Marvel. But he gets to spend a little time out of makeup in the film as well (spoilers ahead!).
Mendelsohn technically only plays one character (Talos), but there's a twist. Nick Fury's boss, Keller, actually turns out to be Talos in disguise. When he's playing Talos in Keller's form, Mendelsohn appears as he usually does. Playing an apparent villain is nothing new to Mendelsohn: his most famous role in recent years was in the Star Wars anthology film Rogue One, in which he played evil Imperial officer Orson Krennic. He also played the villains in Ready Player One and Robin Hood, and he won his Emmy for the TV drama Bloodline.
No word yet on whether or not Mendelsohn will reprise his role in future Marvel films. In the meantime, check out a gallery of his past roles ahead!

Chrissy Teigen Got Her Kids a Hamster, and It's Going as Well as You Thought It Would
As if Chrissy Teigen's schedule wasn't hectic enough between hosting Lip Sync Battle, being a spokeswoman for Pampers, and raising two adorable children with John Legend, she opted to sprinkle a little more craziness into the mix by getting her kids a hamster. In a hilarious Twitter thread, she described how their newest member of the family is assimilating, as well as how, er, confusing taking care of a tiny little rodent can be. But the best part? Not only is the little hamster's name Peanut Butter, but apparently John isn't exactly crazy about the new family pet. Read through to get the hamster saga in full, and try not to LOL in the process.
How Long Can You Store Eggs? Longer Than You Think . . .
It happens to the best of us. You buy "fresh" eggs, only to find out that your expensive, organic, cage-free, brown eggs are past their sell-by date. But, don't trash them just yet, because you can probably still use them! Raw, shelled eggs typically last three weeks after their sell-by date when properly refrigerated, and four to five weeks after their packing date when properly refrigerated.
Boiling or cracking eggs shortens their shelf life, with boiled eggs lasting about a week. This is because eggshells, which are highly porous, have a thin coating of mineral oil that seals and protects the egg. Boiling them washes this protective sealing away, leaving the shell susceptible to bacterial contamination. Once you peel these eggs, you should eat them the same day. After cracking them, raw, whole eggs have to be eaten within two days. Egg whites stored on their own can last up to four days, but yolks have to be used within two days.
If your eggs are reaching the end of their shelf life and you just want to really be sure, you can always check the freshness with a water test. Just take a cold glass or bowl of water and gently place the egg into the cup. If the egg sinks, it's fresh and safe to eat. If it floats, then the egg has spoiled.
If you need to significantly extend their shelf life, consider freezing your eggs. Frozen whole eggs, yolks, and whites can be frozen for up to a year. But, be aware that egg yolks thicken when frozen. To slow this process, beat in either 1/8 teaspoon salt or 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar for every four yolks. While you may encounter some slight changes in texture and preparation, they will still be edible.
Now that you know how long you can store your eggs, check out these
delicious egg recipes for breakfast, lunch, and yes - even dinner.
This Is How All Your Favorite Chefs Make Deviled Eggs
'Tis the season for deviled eggs, and we've got a fresh batch of recipe inspiration from your favorite chefs.

Ahead, check out all the ways your favorite food celebrities dress up their deviled eggs, and snag your favorite recipes for Easter and beyond.
Alton Brown: Pepper Speckled
Leave it to Alton Brown to take an unexpected approach to deviled eggs. His five-pepper deviled eggs are topped with a combination of five types of whole peppercorns: pink, white, black, green, and brined green. After grinding the peppercorns and sprinkling them on top of the eggs, you're left with a colorful egg that has a flavorful crunch in every bite.
Giada De Laurentiis: Crab Infused
Giada De Laurentiis's deviled eggs with crab are exactly what you need if you're looking for a slightly elevated yet doable version of the classic Easter appetizer. Not only are the eggs stuffed with lump crab meat, but they also have an Italian flair thanks to mascarpone cheese.
Chrissy Teigen: Secretly Spicy
Want to be Chrissy Teigen's friend? The criteria, according to the cookbook author herself, are "you must never call and you must love deviled eggs. Parties and holidays were created for deviled eggs," she writes in the intro for her Secretly Spicy Deviled Eggs on page 132 of Cravings. She swears hers don't evoke any grandma vibes, and she's right: there's sriracha and pickled jalapeños.
Ree Drummond: With a Secret Ingredient
The Pioneer Woman's deviled eggs might seem standard at first, but there's one ingredient that sets them apart from the rest: pickle juice. Instead of just adding relish to the top as many people do, Ree Drummond recommends stirring a small amount (a teaspoon) of pickle juice into the yolk mixture so the whole egg is flavored with tangy, salty goodness.
Sunny Anderson: Surprisingly Crunchy
Ever had a crunchy deviled egg before? Sunny Anderson's deviled eggs might convince you that's the only way to go. Sunny's trick is to add canned fried onions on top (yep, the good stuff from Thanksgiving). Lemon zest brightens them up, and pickled jalapeños add just the right amount of acidity.
Ina Garten: Topped With Smoked Salmon
Add a pop of pink to your spread with Ina Garten's smoked salmon deviled eggs. A decadent filling of sour cream and cream cheese makes these deviled eggs reminiscent of a lox bagel with cream cheese, save for the carbs.

Angelina Jolie and Her Youngest Kids Had a Giggle Fest at the Dumbo Premiere
Angelina Jolie and her four youngest kids had a movie night out on March 11 to celebrate the Dumbo premiere in LA. Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 12, Vivienne, 10, and Knox, 10, were all smiles as they accompanied their mom during a rare red carpet appearance. In fact, Angelina's kids even appeared to burst into giggles along the way, causing Mom to laugh right along with them. Perhaps they're practicing poses for Angelina's own Maleficent: Mistress of Evil premiere in October?
This is the second film event Angelina and her children have enjoyed in the past two weeks. On Feb. 25, the actress brought all the kids, including sons Maddox, 17, and Pax, 15, to an NYC showing of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. This is quite the cultured crew! Ahead, see more photos from their night on the red carpet.
Good Boys: Jacob Tremblay’s New Movie Is So NSFW, He Can’t Even Watch the Trailer
What is it like to watch Jacob Tremblay, the adorable little boy who captured all of our hearts in Room, cursing out classmates and spying on his neighbors with a drone? Uh, a little weird, I gotta be honest. But it's also . . . kind of perfect?
In the first very NSFW trailer for Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen's Good Boys, Tremblay stars as 12-year-old Max, who is about to attend his first "kissing party." Freaking out since he doesn't know how, he enlists the help of his best friends Thor (Brady Noon) and Lucas (Keith L. Williams). Together, the three sixth-grade "social piranhas" use a high-tech drone that belongs to Max's dad (Will Forte) to spy on a teenage couple (Molly Gordon and Midori Francis) making out next door. Obviously, things don't go according to plan, and the drone is destroyed.
How will Max, Thor, and Lucas replace the drone before Max's dad gets home? By skipping school and going on an adventure that involves stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from the cops. Duh. Watch the very bad boys in the trailer for Good Boys above before it arrives in theaters soon.
The Bachelor's Hannah G. May Act Mature, but She's One of the Youngest Contestants
The contestants on Colton Underwood's season of The Bachelor came from a variety of backgrounds, and there was a good age range between the various women. Twenty-three-year-old Demi teased 31-year-old Tracy about her age, and the two of them were pretty much at opposite ends of this season's age spectrum. As for the final three contestants, Hannah G. was 23 when The Bachelor started filming. Cassie was also 23, and Tayshia was 28. (Colton, for reference, is 27.)
Even though some of the contestants, including Hannah G. and Hannah B., were on the younger side, age didn't seem to factor into their relationships with Colton. Both Hannahs seemed genuinely invested in the Bachelor star. And it's clear from Hannah G.'s emotional reaction during Monday's live episode that she was ready to go all in with Colton. Hannah G. appeared to be ready for marriage if Colton had chosen her at the end of the series, and her age didn't seem to factor into their relationship.
While 23 might seem young for engagement to some people, only the contestants themselves can know if they're ready to take that next step in a relationship. And for Hannah G., it looked like she was there. She seemed pretty torn up about the breakup during the live show, saying that she was "blindsided," especially since Colton kept telling her she reminded him of "home."
Hannah G. may be heartbroken now, but she's still got a life ahead of her to find that fence-jump-worthy love. Whether it's within the Bachelor franchise or outside of it, Hannah G. deserves to be more than second-best, just like Colton told her during the emotional first part of the finale. Fingers crossed that she'll be someone's first pick in Bachelor in Paradise.
27 Times Kelly Clarkson's Cover Was Better Than the Original Song
If you've ever seen Kelly Clarkson in concert, you'll know that she usually takes time during her set to sing a cover - sometimes it's one of her favorite classics, and sometimes it's a current hit that she's obsessing over. Over the past couple of years, we've seen videos popping up of the former American Idol star singing gorgeous renditions of everything from Sam Smith's "Stay With Me" to Robyn's "Dancing on My Own" - she even covered Rihanna's saucy "B*tch Better Have My Money"! We've rounded up all the times Kelly sang another pop star's song . . . and totally killed it. Scroll through to listen to them all now.
Is The Bachelor's Tayshia Single? Let's Put the Clues Together
Tayshia Adams fell in love with Colton Underwood on The Bachelor, only to be left in tears during the show's finale. We have no doubt that this smart, classy woman will find her forever, but we can't help but wonder if she has already. You might be curious about this 28-year-old phlebotomist's dating life following her very public breakup, and we just might have the answer.
Let's make it clear that Tayshia hasn't made an announcement on her relationship status yet, but we consider ourselves at peak Nancy Drew status - not to mention that we can put two and two together. During night one of the two-night live finale, Tayshia got to meet with Colton for the first time following their breakup in Portugal. Their conversation seemed very mature and civil, although a bit awkward, as you would expect when facing an ex. Chris Harrison gave Tayshia the final word to say what she needed to Colton.
"You've taught me a lot, and you've really made me want to look forward to a really exciting relationship," she said. "Because I know that's in store for me, and I can't wait for that to happen."
It's clear that Tayshia is not afraid of relationships - she was married, but it came to a sad end when her ex cheated on her. "My divorce used to be something I was ashamed of, because to me it represented, not only to myself but to everyone that knew me, that I had failed at marriage, something I value so highly," she captioned an Instagram picture of her and Colton.
At this point, we can only speculate that Tayshia is not dating anyone. So maybe this means that Tayshia is a serious contender for the next Bachelorette . . .
The Bachelor: Everything We Can Gather About Hannah G.'s Current Relationship Status
Fans eager to see what happened to Hannah Godwin after last week's dramatic Bachelor episode didn't have to wait too long into part one of the finale. Oblivious to the whole fence-jump situation, Hannah was just waiting for her date with Colton in Portugal, but the date never happened. Instead, Colton showed up at Hannah's hotel room to tell her that he was in love with Cassie. And based on her reaction to the breakup, it doesn't look like she's started dating anyone else quite yet.
Hannah appeared on The Bachelor's live show on Monday to talk about her experience, and it's clear she had no idea where Colton was in his relationships with Cassie and Tayshia when he showed up at her hotel room. "I've been dreading that moment for months," Hannah said of watching the scene back again, adding that she was "blindsided" by Colton's revelation.
Chris Harrison and Hannah also talked about the fact that Colton gave Hannah the first-impression rose and told her repeatedly that she reminded him of "home." She added that it "became meaningless" when he said the phrase to her during the breakup, which shows just how upset she was at the time.
Hannah added that she's returned to her regular life but that it's been difficult "reliving" her relationship with Colton when The Bachelor airs each week. "My heart was just so in it, and it's not just a show," she said to Harrison. "I've been hoping for more closure as I watch every week," she added, telling Harrison she wanted to see how strong his relationships were with the other women. But she still feels "more confused" than she did the night of their breakup in Portugal.
It sounds like Hannah is still pretty shaken up over the breakup, so she might not have jumped back into the dating pool just yet. And that's more than understandable - just before Colton arrived at her hotel room, she was preparing to tell him that she loved him.
During her conversation with Colton during The Bachelor's live show, it was clear how strong her feelings were for him throughout the process. She asked him if he thought things could have been different in their relationship if the timing had been different, wondering why things went wrong for them. Colton seemed confident that he made the right decision, telling Hannah she deserved more than being someone's second choice.
And while Hannah didn't mention seeing anyone new, she did share that she's learned more about herself from her Bachelor journey. "I can handle way more than I ever imagined that I could," Hannah said during the live show, adding that she knows what she deserves in a future partner. "I want somebody to jump a fence for me. I need that kind of relationship."
Hannah's journey with Colton may be over, but she's not giving up on finding love. And she's totally right - everyone deserves that kind of fence-jumping dedication in their own relationship (hopefully without an actual fence jump, though).
If The Bachelor's Finale Has You Wondering If Becca and Garrett Are Still Together . . .
Becca Kufrin and Garrett Yrigoyen are proving people who may not have believed they'd last wrong, as the latest Bachelorette couple to get engaged are still together headed into 2019. Five months after the finale, in which Yrigoyen proposed, not only are they being very lovey-dovey on their respective Instagrams, but Kufrin, who was unceremoniously dumped on television by Bachelor alum Arie Luyendyk Jr., is also moving in with her tall, dark, and handsome final-rose pick.
"We're going to be house-hunting in San Diego," Kufrin said about the couple's post-New Year's plans at a recent event. But hold up, Bachelor Nation. Even if the Bachelorette and Yrigoyen are ready to shack up, that doesn't mean a wedding is imminent, no matter how much fans may want one to happen ASAP. Kufrin said the engaged duo's nuptials are "very far in the future." She went on to say, "We have some ideas of things that we would want, but nothing - no dates, no venues or anything yet. We'll give it some time. One thing at a time." Still, some of Kufrin and Yrigoyen's wedding-day preferences may have been revealed in a recent, breathtakingly beautiful bridal photo shoot in Squaw Valley, CA. Um, holy gorgeous rustic setting!
Read on to see how else the reality loves have been spending time smooching and cuddling across the country in the past few months!
A Look Back at All 37 of Stan Lee's Cheeky Cameos in Superhero Movies
Watching a Marvel movie over the last decade was like participating in a game of Where's Waldo, except instead of a bespectacled man in red and white stripes, you were on the lookout for a comic-book legend. That legend, of course, was Stan Lee, creator of some of our favorite superheroes and arguably one of Marvel's best Easter eggs, who passed away at the age of 95 on Nov. 12, 2018 after battling pneumonia and other medical issues.
While Lee has made cameos in countless Marvel movies and TV series, as well as non-Marvel shows and films (hello, Big Hero 6), his most memorable appearances were in Marvel live-action superhero movies dating back to the very first Hulk film in 1989. If you want to look back on his legendary cameos, here's every one we could find, with the exception of the Deadpool trailer, which, while hilarious, wasn't from the movie. Also, fair warning: there are many Hulk and Spider-Man films on this list. Keep in mind Marvel's been through its fair share of Peter Parkers and Bruce Banners, and Lee met them all.
The Bachelorette's Jason Tartick and Kaitlyn Bristowe Are Still Dating (and Still VERY Cute)
Love is in the air! Jason Tartick confirmed that he and Kaitlyn Bristowe were an item in late January, just weeks after they went on a date. On an episode of The Today Show, Jason put rumors to rest, saying, "Right here, right now, yeah, that's true. [It's] Kaitlyn Bristowe."
The camera then panned to Kaitlyn as she flaunted a bright smile. "I was going to use my podcast to break the news," she said, referring to her podcast, Off the Vine, on which she and Jason first met. "But I guess The Today Show beat me to it." Jason then confirmed that they've been together for "about a month or so."
Both Jason and Kaitlyn were part of The Bachelorette squad: Jason was a contestant on season 14 with Becca Kufrin, while Kaitlyn was one of the leading ladies in season 11. The news comes just a couple of months after Kaitlyn announced her split from Shawn Booth. Kaitlyn and Shawn were together for three years and planned on getting married before they decided to call it quits. "This difficult decision comes after thoughtful, respectful consideration. Even though we are parting as a couple, we're very much committed to remaining friends," they shared in a statement to People at the time.
Bachelorette fans who closely follow cast members online pretty much called Jason and Kaitlyn's budding romance. Even before their date, they were getting rather flirtatious on social media. So we knew this was coming, but now we know for sure. See all their cutest photo moments together, ahead!
Sheila and Joel Are Back and Bloodier Than Ever in Santa Clarita Diet's Season 3 Trailer
It seems to be business as usual in Santa Clarita Diet's season three trailer . . . by which we mean Sheila (Drew Barrymore) and Joel (Timothy Olyphant) are still luring Nazis and other criminals to their kill room so that Sheila can attack and eat them. An average, totally normal couple activity, right? Fortunately, Sheila has a few reservations . . . well, kiiiiind of. ("I want to be about more than just eating people, but I also really enjoy eating people," she says.)
This time around, in addition to figuring out how they can sustain Sheila's gruesome habit, the couple also begins to realize the full ramifications of what her being a member of the undead truly means: she's immortal. Since Joel very much isn't, will he let his wife bite him so they can live together forever? Watch the trailer above to get a taste of what they'll be going through before Santa Clarita Diet season three arrives on March 29.

Colton's Breakups During The Bachelor's Season Finale Were Absolutely Brutal
Warning: spoilers for The Bachelor ahead!
Part one of The Bachelor's season finale aired on Monday night, and it included a number of highly dramatic moments. No, we didn't get to find out if Colton ultimately ends up with Cassie, but the show did pick up exactly where we left off last week: with Colton jumping over that fence. Once the show repeated the fence-jump moment about 6 trillion times, accompanied by footage of Colton sobbing as he speed-walked through the dark countryside in Portugal, we moved on to the episode's more emotional scenes - the big breakups he had to carry out after professing his love for Cassie.
Since Colton spent all of the previous episode saying that he didn't want anyone else in the competition other than Cassie, it was nice to see that he wasn't taking it back all of a sudden even though she rejected him; instead, he knew he had to break up with the remaining two women - Tayshia and Hannah G. - because he knew in his "heart of hearts" that he couldn't "be in love with more than one person."
First up was Tayshia, whom Colton surprised in her hotel room in Portugal. Since she'd been with him in the overnight Fantasy Suite date just a day before, she was thrilled to see him. However, things quickly took a turn when Colton told her the real reason he was there. He explained that he was in love with Cassie - which earned him a very tense (and warranted) "Mhmm" in response - and then Tayshia asked if they could step inside to chat things out away from all the cameras.
The pair still had their mics on (of course), so audiences were able to listen in to everything that went down between the two. The result? Well . . . mostly it was a back-and-forth of muffled cries and apologies from Colton, who promised he never meant for this to happen.
He said similar things to Hannah G. when he stopped by her room after chatting with Tayshia, but their conversation got a lot more heated. The interaction began with a confessional from Hannah, who said she'd just finished writing a love letter and was ready to finally say that she was in love with him. Unfortunately, he burst her bubble pretty much immediately after that, telling her, "I thought it was gonna be you."
"I really thought it was for sure going to be us," she tearfully responded, clearly blindsided. "I don't know how to take this right now."
The real fire from Hannah came when Colton told her that she made him "better."
"That's what I do. I make everybody better, and they don't want to stick around," she said. "I'm so angry right now. I think I just want to get out of here because I'm so embarrassed . . . I didn't think it was possible for there to be a better connection than what we had."
Even though he told her that she doesn't "deserve to be anybody's backup plan," Hannah told him, through tears, to leave. She wasn't the only one crying, though - as soon as he left her room, Colton had a breakdown in the hallway, needing to be consoled by a producer on the show. "That's literally how much I love Cassie - I'm willing to walk away from someone that great," he sobbed.
The level of messiness involved in these breakups naturally has Bachelor Nation in an uproar. See the best reactions to both Hannah and Tayshia's exits, ahead.
OMG: Amber and Prince Richard Are Having a Baby in Netflix's Third Christmas Prince Film
First, we watched Amber (Rose McIver) and Prince Richard (Ben Lamb) fall in love in A Christmas Prince. Then, Netflix blessed us all by making a second film, all about Amber and Richard's wedding. And now? The royal couple are welcoming a baby!
On Monday, the streaming platform announced that a third film in the series is on the way, titled A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby. Netflix's official description reads: "It's Christmastime in Aldovia - and a royal baby is on the way! Amber and Richard host royals from a faraway kingdom to renew an ancient truce, but when the priceless 600-year-old-treaty disappears, peace is put in jeopardy and an ancient curse threatens their family!"
An ancient curse?! A faraway kingdom?! A vanishing treaty?! It sounds like dirty diapers are going to be the least of the prince and princess's worries. As we all await for the movie to premiere - we have months to go, people - check out Richard and Amber's crown-wearing (and mildly creepy) unborn child in the sonogram announcement ahead.

Did You Realize This Actor Has 2 Roles in Captain Marvel? We Sure Didn't
Marvel's latest film, Captain Marvel, has a cast packed with major Hollywood names. Since much of the film focuses on the conflict between two alien races - the Skrull and the Kree - many of those big-name actors spend some serious time with their recognizable faces obscured beneath layers of prosthetics and makeup. One such actor is Ben Mendelsohn, the Emmy-winning actor who plays Talos, one of the shapeshifting Skrulls who plays a key role in Captain Marvel. But he gets to spend a little time out of makeup in the film as well (spoilers ahead!).
Mendelsohn technically only plays one character (Talos), but there's a twist. Nick Fury's boss, Keller, actually turns out to be Talos in disguise. When he's playing Talos in Keller's form, Mendelsohn appears as he usually does. Playing an apparent villain is nothing new to Mendelsohn: his most famous role in recent years was in the Star Wars anthology film Rogue One, in which he played evil Imperial officer Orson Krennic. He also played the villains in Ready Player One and Robin Hood, and he won his Emmy for the TV drama Bloodline.
No word yet on whether or not Mendelsohn will reprise his role in future Marvel films. In the meantime, check out a gallery of his past roles ahead!
