  • Amid ‘Katespiracy’, Meghan Markle returns to Instagram

    Amid ‘Katespiracy’, Meghan Markle returns to Instagram

    Meghan Markle, the wife of Britain’s Prince Harry, is launching a new lifestyle brand seemingly named after the couple’s oceanside California home. An Instagram page and website for American Riviera Orchard went live without advance warning Thursday, both featuring a gold-colored crest for the new venture. 

    The logo featured the word Montecito, the celebrity enclave where the couple have lived since 2020, which is close to Santa Barbara — itself sometimes known as the American Riviera. The social media account’s biography simply reads: “by Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex.”

    A representative for the duchess confirmed her participation in the new venture to AFP, without providing further details. American Riviera Orchard appears to be a kitchen and lifestyle-themed brand.

    Thursday’s launch was accompanied by a grainy, retro-style promotional video in which Meghan Markle is seen arranging flowers and baking in a kitchen. A mailing list offered users the chance to sign up to become “the first to know about products, availability, and updates from American Riviera Orchard.”

    Harry and Meghan, who is American, quit royal duties in 2020 and relocated to California. Their official Instagram handle has not posted since then. Meghan’s personal social media accounts and former lifestyle blog were both closed before the couple married.

    In recent years, the couple have pursued a variety of media ventures. They criticised Britain’s royal family in a string of high-profile outpourings including a Netflix documentary series and Harry’s blockbuster autobiography Spare.

    The couple had a Spotify-exclusive podcast deal, which came to an end last year after just one show. Netflix also dropped an animated series created by Meghan but an executive for the streaming giant in January said multiple projects from the couple, including a movie, remained “in very early development.”

    Mawra Hocane advocates for the simplicity of love: ‘It’s Not Love If It’s Not Easy

    In today’s world of undefined relationships, understanding love can be tough for many. But actress Mawra Hocane is absolutely clear about how you know when you’ve found your special someone.

    Speaking in a recent interview with Something Haute, Mawra described love as a place where you can be your true self. The ‘Neem’ actress believes that intimacy and authenticity are key components of love. She said, “Being in love means being your true self.”

    Recognizing that life can get chaotic, especially for celebrities like herself, Mawra emphasized that love shouldn’t add to complexity. “Life is already so complicated that love should be easy,” she observed, clarifying that by easy, she doesn’t mean being lazy.

    “The only effort you should have to make in love is to give love. But if it’s taking a lot of effort then it’s probably not love. It should be clear and easy.”
    Despite her deep thoughts on love, Mawra made it clear she’s not currently romantically involved. When asked if love is clear and easy for her, she replied, “Well, it’s not because I’m not in love.”
    Expanding on her views, Mawra pointed out the difference between family bonds and romantic relationships. She highlighted that while family ties are given, love is a choice. She said, “There’s just so much in life you don’t choose. But love, you’re choosing.”

    Olivia Munn got all clear mammogram before being diagnosed with breast cancer two months later

    Actor Olivia Munn revealed Wednesday that she had undergone a double mastectomy after being diagnosed with breast cancer. The X-Men: Apocalypse and The Newsroom performer took to Instagram to tell followers her news, just days after she attended the Oscars ceremony with her partner, comedian John Mulaney.

    The 43-year-old said the cancer had been discovered almost a year ago after her doctor noted she was at elevated risk for the disease and suggested she undergo an additional scan, 12 months before a routine screening.

    “I wouldn’t have found my cancer for another year -– at my next scheduled mammogram,” she told followers. After initial tests, a biopsy was ordered. “The biopsy showed I had Luminal B cancer in both breasts. Luminal B is an aggressive, fast-moving cancer,” she wrote, adding that the double mastectomy was performed 30 days later.

    “I went from feeling completely fine one day to waking up in a hospital bed after a 10-hour surgery the next,” she wrote in a post, with photos taken apparently during her treatment. “I’m lucky. We caught it with enough time that I had options. I want the same for any woman who might have to face this one day.”

    Munn walked the red carpet at Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony in Hollywood, where Mulaney presented an Oscar, and later attended the celebrity-filled Vanity Fair after-party. 

    Munn’s small screen credits include The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as well as a role in Aaron Sorkin’s HBO drama The Newsroom. Her movie credits have included Magic Mike, The Predator and Office Christmas Party.

    Actor Asad Malik shares top fitness secrets

    Famous actor Asad Malik recently had a chat on Hum News where he talked about how he stays fit, especially during Ramadan. He shared helpful tips for staying healthy while fasting.

    He said, “Fasting has always been easy for me. I never found it hard. But some very healthy people struggle with fasting at first. Eventually, they get used to it, while some never do, maybe because they don’t want to.”


    Talking about staying fit, he stressed the importance of good eating habits, saying, “How you eat is really important. Even if you eat good food, it won’t help if your eating habits are bad. Always avoid eating until you’re stuffed. Drink a glass of water before every meal, and avoid cold water. Eat only half of your meal and wait two hours to finish the rest. Eating smaller portions won’t make you gain weight.” He also said he takes honey every morning as a health tonic.

  • Peshawar High Court rejects SIC’s plea regarding reserved seats

    Peshawar High Court rejects SIC’s plea regarding reserved seats

    The Peshawar High Court (PHC) has rejected a petition of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-backed Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) against the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) verdict on reserved seats.

    “Petitions are unanimously rejected,” the court maintained.

    Earlier today, PHC chief justice Mohammad Ibrahim Khan resumed the hearing and five members of the bench, including Justice Ijaz Anwar, Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim, Justice Shakeel Ahmad, and Justice Arshad Ali, heard the petition.

    SIC’s lawyer, Barrister Ali Zafar, argued during the hearing that it’s not mentioned in the constitution that a party should submit any list to the ECP for reserved seats.

    “It is not written anywhere that you cannot resubmit the list or when it has to be submitted,” the barrister argued, adding that there is no restriction on providing a second list and that the ECP could have issued a second schedule, as it did for the general elections.

    “As per the law, those who participate in elections will get seats,” Justice Anwar remarked.

    The court then questioned Barrister Zafar if it wasn’t clearly stated anywhere that the second schedule cannot be issued.

    “The law does not prevent the Election Commission from issuing another schedule,” the lawyer responded.

    Justice Arshad remarked that Section 104 explains the mechanism for reserved seats as it states that when a list is submitted then another list can be given.

    “Section 104 says that if a political party participates in an election, it will give a list,” the lawyer argued.

    He earlier argued that whoever wins the number of seats, they get reserved seats in the same proportion. 

    “Their seats cannot be increased.”

    “If these seats are not given, the parliament will not be complete,” remarked the chief justice, responding to which the lawyer requested the court to interpret the Constitution in a way that there remains no gap in its interpretation.

    Barrister Ali Zafar also told the court that the ECP has authority to maintain justice, adding that there should be transparency in the election for reserved seats.
