00:00 Girl, do you know what show I'm on?
00:01 We sure do.
00:02 We're talking boundaries, mom life, aging, and more
00:06 with Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Garcelle Bovee.
00:09 And we've got the stories that define the week
00:12 on People in 10.
00:13 (upbeat music)
00:16 I'm Makon Dovu, bringing you everything you need to know
00:20 about pop culture right now.
00:22 10 minutes are on the clock,
00:23 so let's get to it with the first five,
00:25 starting with the legal blind side.
00:28 Are you gonna protect your family, Michael?
00:29 Yes, ma'am.
00:30 The family that inspired 2009's "The Blind Side"
00:33 is speaking out amid claims that they lied
00:35 to retired NFL star Michael Orr
00:37 and made millions off his name.
00:40 Michael alleges that Leigh-Anne and Sean Toohey
00:42 told him that there was no difference
00:43 between being adopted and entering into a conservatorship.
00:46 This happened in 2004 when he was 18.
00:49 And now Orr wants out.
00:51 He filed to terminate the conservatorship this week,
00:53 which he said allowed the Tooheys
00:54 and their two children by birth
00:55 to pocket over 200 grand each from "The Blind Side."
00:58 Plus a percentage of the film's earnings,
01:01 but the Tooheys see it differently.
01:03 Sean called the allegations insulting,
01:05 while their son, Sean Jr., said he understands
01:07 why Michael's mad, but denied making millions off the story.
01:10 The family's attorney also claims that Orr threatened them
01:13 with a so-called $15 million shakedown
01:16 before filing the petition.
01:18 And the lawyer alleges that Michael has attempted
01:20 to run this place several times before.
01:23 Orr also issued a statement to People
01:25 saying he's disheartened by the revelation
01:27 shared in the lawsuit,
01:28 but that he'll let the lawsuit speak for itself.
01:30 Next up, a star-studded engagement.
01:34 - Will you, will you marry him?
01:36 - After four years of dating,
01:38 Zooey Deschanel and Jonathan Scott are ready to say, "I do."
01:42 - It was meant to be.
01:44 - The property brother popped the question
01:45 on a family trip to Scotland,
01:47 and Zooey's two kids even played a role
01:49 in the special moment.
01:50 So sweet.
01:51 And surprise, Ashley Olsen's house just got fuller
01:55 as she and her husband, Louis Eisner,
01:57 welcomed their first child.
01:59 - Is it a boy or a girl?
02:00 - It's a boy, whom they named Otto.
02:03 Things are heating up between Harry Styles and Taylor Russell.
02:05 The pair was spotted cozying up
02:07 after a performance of the actress's London play,
02:10 which Harry attended with his pal, James Corden.
02:12 - This is actually the most excited,
02:14 artistically, I've ever seen.
02:16 - And Ashley Graham is celebrating 13 years,
02:19 married to her husband, Justin Irvin.
02:21 The couple jetted off to Italy to celebrate,
02:23 and Ashley marked the occasion with a nod
02:25 to a beloved rom-com.
02:27 - I'm not 13 anymore.
02:29 - Some of our favorite stars are stepping out
02:33 in big ways this week.
02:35 Jimmy Fallon unleashed his inner rock star,
02:37 surprising the crowd at the New York City

03:07 Meanwhile, the band invited their Instagram followers
03:10 to send the new 34-year-old some B-day wishes,
03:13 and Joe himself readily obliged.
03:15 Hey, self-love is important.
03:17 Meanwhile, Halle Berry celebrated her 57th birthday
03:21 with her daughter, Nala, by her side.
03:23 The celebrations went on into the night, so festive.

03:36 - "Sister Wives" returns for its 18th season on Sunday,
03:39 and everything has changed.
03:41 - I'm in this bad place with Janelle, and Christine's gone.
03:45 Don't even know what to do with Mary.
03:46 - In our People cover story, we're learning what went wrong.
03:50 - I went in with such, like, these ideas
03:52 about how idyllic plural marriage was gonna be,
03:55 and it was really hard.
03:57 - You stay in the house. - I'm done listening to you.
03:59 - Okay, so we're done? - Goodbye.
04:01 - (beep) you.
04:02 There was a lot of jealousy.
04:04 I had more emotional needs that weren't being met for me.
04:08 - But I just have no interest in ever trying
04:10 to plural marriage again for many reasons.
04:13 - I feel like we've failed,
04:14 and now I don't know what my future is.
04:17 - But not everyone shares Robin's sentiment.
04:19 - I'm excited for this next chapter.
04:21 - Girl, there's a whole huge freaking world out there
04:26 that we knew nothing about.
04:27 - There's a lot of things that are still unknown,
04:30 and that's okay.
04:31 - Yes, we're all moving forward.
04:33 We're all seeking happiness, and we will all find it.
04:36 - Princess Kate is going viral again,
04:40 this time for her subtle mastery of royal protocol.
04:44 - Kate wasn't raised in aristocracy,
04:46 but she's become a total pro at royal etiquette and behavior.
04:49 - A video from 2022 is trending on TikTok
04:52 from when Kate joined Princess Anne,
04:54 Queen Elizabeth's only daughter,
04:55 for their first joint outing.
04:57 - They arrive together in the same car,
04:59 but we see Kate pause as she gets out
05:01 to let Anne lead the way.
05:02 Kate then keeps a step or two behind,
05:04 letting Anne greet their hosts first.
05:06 - You might be wondering why wouldn't Princess Kate,
05:08 as the future queen, get to go first?
05:11 - While Kate does outrank blood members of the royal family,
05:14 there's a catch.
05:15 This only applies when she's with her husband,
05:17 Prince William, not when she's alone.
05:19 - So there you have it.
05:21 And don't worry, following these royal rules to a T
05:24 doesn't mean Kate can't have a little fun too.
05:27 - According to reports,
05:28 the princess secretly attended a music festival
05:30 near her country home last weekend
05:32 after enjoying a dinner with friends.
05:34 - Something tells us she didn't channel
05:36 this 2008 look for the fest,
05:38 but we'd be all for it if she did.
05:41 Now, let's move on to some screen time.
05:44 (upbeat music)
05:47 I'm so excited today to be joined by Garcelle Beauvais,
05:51 model, actress, television host,
05:53 and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills extraordinaire.
05:56 I'm gonna ask you five questions.
05:57 For question number one, you'll give me one answer.
05:59 Question number two, you'll give me two answers,
06:01 and so on and so forth.
06:02 Are you ready to get started?
06:03 - I am.
06:04 - Let's do this.
06:05 You're teaming up with GSK to advocate
06:07 and empower people over 50 to thrive.
06:10 And I gotta say,
06:11 I can't believe that you yourself are in your 50s.
06:13 It seems like your life and career is as busy as ever.
06:15 What is the one thing that happened to you in your 50s
06:18 that you weren't expecting?
06:20 - That the pounds don't fall off like they used to.
06:23 It's so funny how life works,
06:24 because when I was younger,
06:26 I had a cousin who was very curvy like Thelma in "Good Times,"
06:30 and she would get all the attention,
06:31 and I was like a stick,
06:32 so I would eat and I would lay down and go,
06:34 spread, spread.
06:35 And now I'm like, come off.
06:37 I'm in my 50s.
06:39 I was really nervous about shingles.
06:41 I had heard about it,
06:42 but I didn't know much until I walked into my pharmacy
06:45 and I asked the question.
06:47 I said, "How important is it to get the shingles vaccination
06:51 "or can you tell me more about shingles?"
06:53 And she looked at me and she said,
06:54 "It is the most important vaccination you can get."
06:59 And the way she said it to me just resonated with me
07:01 that when I got back in the car,
07:03 I called like three of my girlfriends
07:05 who were in their 50s immediately.
07:08 And I was like, "Guys."
07:09 And they're always like, "Garcelle, what are you up to now?"
07:11 And I'm like, 'cause they always say with me,
07:13 "You miss a day, you miss a year."
07:14 Because so much happens.
07:16 And I was like, "No, no, no, we all have to do this
07:18 "and it's really important."
07:19 So working with GSK and then, you know,
07:22 Thrive at 50+ just makes a lot of sense for me.
07:25 - For me, boundaries have always been a huge part
07:28 of me protecting my mental health.
07:29 And since you work in media,
07:30 what are two ways that you help to maintain your boundaries?
07:33 - Girl, do you know what show I'm on?
07:35 - Let's (beep) you.
07:36 - (beep) you.
07:37 - (beep) you.
07:39 - I can't believe I'm in my 50s and I'm learning boundaries.
07:41 You know, even a smallest thing
07:43 that if I know someone's calling me
07:44 and what they're going to tell me is going to ruin my night
07:47 and I'm about to go to sleep, I'll go, "You know what?
07:50 "It can wait till the morning."
07:51 You know, and I think that goes back to
07:54 taking care of yourself and being healthy and saying,
07:56 "You know what?
07:57 "That doesn't work for me.
07:58 "So I need to really look out for myself."
08:00 - Health is always evolving throughout our whole lives.
08:03 What are three easy ways that people can update
08:05 their healthcare when they hit 50?
08:08 - I would say it's really paying attention to your body.
08:11 We're all so busy that we're always running around thinking,
08:14 especially if you're a mom,
08:15 you're thinking about everybody else but you.
08:17 It's really checking in with yourself
08:19 and making sure that, you know, you know what to expect.
08:23 You know, your immune system weakens as we get older.
08:26 You want to talk to your doctor.
08:27 You want to talk to your pharmacist.
08:28 And it's really important.
08:29 Somebody said to me that going to your doctor
08:33 and having questions already so that you can ask,
08:36 'cause you forget.
08:37 And I think that's one of the most important things too.
08:39 Advocating for yourself, yeah.
08:42 - Now, Garcelle, I know that your beautiful family
08:44 is very important to you,
08:45 which makes taking care of yourself
08:47 that much more of a priority.
08:48 So what are four things you're currently teaching your kids
08:51 and grandkids about health, wellness, and thriving?
08:55 - Okay, so when it comes to thriving
08:57 is really trying to be the best you you can be.
08:59 Whenever my kids are getting out of the car at school,
09:01 I always say, "Be the best you can be."
09:03 Right, and they're like,
09:04 they roll their eyes and they close the door.
09:05 But I know it's getting in there.
09:07 'Cause I've said to them in the past that I go,
09:09 "Oh, you were listening."
09:11 So for me, it's really taking care of yourself,
09:15 boundaries, listening to your body.
09:17 I think that's really important.
09:18 And it's interesting because my grandson,
09:21 talking about him, I've never seen a kid do this.
09:23 And I've raised three young men.
09:25 He goes, "I'm tired."
09:28 And he'll go upstairs and he'll go to bed.
09:30 And I'm like, "Who does that?"
09:33 Like normally it's like, you gotta read them.
09:35 You gotta tell them stories.
09:36 My son, Jax, would always ask a really important question
09:39 before he goes to bed so he can stretch it out.
09:42 But Oliver Jr. goes, "I'm tired."
09:44 And he goes to bed and I'm like, "That's amazing."
09:47 He's already listening to his body
09:49 and taking care of himself.
09:51 - And finally, can you give us five words
09:53 to describe what it's like being Garcelle in your 50s?
09:56 - I would say thriving.
09:59 I would say healthy.
10:01 I would also say tired.
10:04 Hopefully aspirational to someone.
10:06 You know, if I can do it, so can you.
10:08 And I would say aware, aware.
10:11 - Garcelle, thank you so much for joining me today.
10:14 Now everyone, be sure to check out her partnership
10:16 with GSK and Thrive at 50+.
10:19 All right, time's up.
10:21 See you back here next Thursday.
