Daily #1: Ellen DeGeneres Shares Glimpse of New Life in England

The first story in our daily roundup is that Ellen DeGeneres is feeling good about her move to England. Her wife, Portia de Rossi, is happier than ever and embracing country life.  Recently, DeGeneres went horseback riding, quintessentially English. The former daytime host films her wife of seventeen years as she prepares for a ride on a horse throughout their village in the Cotswolds, England. You can hear the comedienne playfully ribbing her actress wife for looking about ready for a photoshoot. Especially since she’s dressed in chic riding attire.

The video captures Portia’s joyful horseback ride, where she takes in the sights of the village they live in and eventually enjoys a full gallop in the countryside of England. Ellen writes in the caption to the video, “Portia’s living her dream riding her horse through the English countryside and into the village. Gosh, I hope she comes home soon.”

Daily #2: Katy Perry Turns Heads in Black Bikini After Justin Trudeau Romance Fizzles

Katy Perry flaunted her chiseled abs and looked great in a black bikini after her romance with the former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reportedly cooled off. In photos obtained by Page Six of the New York Post, the 40-year-old Perry singer rocked a black two-piece swimsuit while enjoying a beach day with friends in Miami, Fla., on Thursday.

“She’s busy, he’s busy,” an insider shared. The insider also reported that the two previously texted “nonstop” in July. “They have a lot going on, and the newness has worn off.” That is why the relationship ended. “But there’s nothing negative about it,” the source continued. “They just aren’t in constant communication anymore. That could change, but for now, it is what it is. It has cooled off.”

Daily #3: Shirtless David Beckham’s Playful Moment With Victoria on Italian Family Yacht Trip

David Beckham was seen squeezing wife Victoria’s bottom again as they continued their sun-soaked and playful family getaway off the Italian coast on Thursday. The former soccer player is 50 years old, and Victoria, a fashion designer, is 51 years old.  They have been married for almost twenty-five years. They were on their £16M yacht, and were joined by sons Cruz, 24, Romeo, 22, and daughter Harper, 14.

David Beckham showcased his tattooed and muscular physique as he went shirtless and topped up his tan in a pair of navy blue swimming trunks. Meanwhile, Victoria, who wore shades, looked effortlessly chic in a black satin dress with lace panelling, which covered her bikini. The couple embraced on deck, with David unable to keep his hands off his wife, who was busy taking photos of their sons in the sea.
