You're listening to a Mamma Mia podcast.
Good morning, angels. I'm Ash Landon, and we have a cracking episode today. Mika Abdullah from off campus has called off her engagement. Karamo Brown has broken his silence on a queer eye drama, and it's feeling messy. Jennifer Lopez shut down Brett Goldstein dating rumors on live TV, and a director has called the late Val Kilmer the worst person he's ever met. Let's pour some tea. First up, if you've been watching off campus and given this podcast, I suspect a lot of you have, this one will hit differently. Mika Abdullah, who plays Ali in the hit series, has confirmed that she's ended her engagement to actor Jake Short. The pair met on the set of the Hulu comedy Sex Appeal in 2021, and their engagement was confirmed by Jake's manager last year.
A spokesperson for Mika told Us Weekly, due to recent interest in Mika's personal life, it would feel remiss to not address that her and Jake are no longer together. They continue to support each other and remain on friendly terms and kindly ask for privacy and respect. Mika is currently filming season two of Off Campus, which will centre on Ali's relationship with Dean De Laurentiis, played by Stephen Kaelin, throwing herself straight back into work. Get it, girl. We cannot wait for season two. Next up, Karamo Brown has given his first major interview since declining to do press with the rest of the Queer Eye cast back in January. And what he has revealed is genuinely awful and pretty harrowing.
He says he relapsed during season three after 12 years of sobriety, turning to alcohol, which led to weed, cocaine and pills. He said, While we will never know the actual details of what went down on the set and why Karamo chose to distance himself from the rest of the cast towards the end, it's still interesting to me that the rest of the Queer Eye cast still have not yet spoken publicly about what went down, even when Karamo was kind of throwing shade. Taylor Swift's New York wedding is just around the corner and it would appear that it's easier for us to figure out who isn't coming rather than who is.
Why did Mika Abdalla call off her engagement?
Page Six reports that Miles Teller and his wife Kaylee, once extremely close to both Travis and Taylor, will not be attending. No specific reason was given. Karlie Kloss is also reportedly not expected to be there. A source told the Daily Mail that Taylor distanced herself from Karlie sometime after the supermodel's 2018 wedding to Joshua Kushner. It'll be interesting to see how many details we actually get once the wedding has happened, given the huge amount of public interest. Because if anyone can actually pull this wedding off with total privacy and secrecy, it's our girl Taylor. And if I'm honest, I hope she does. Stick around when we return. J-Lo and Brett Goldstein deny dating rumors again on live TV.
And Sydney Sweeney offers a very public snub to co-star Zendaya.
Hello, Holly Wainwright here. I'm an executive editor at Mamma Mia and I have been part of this business, an independent women's media company, for more than a decade now. I have seen a lot, but being independent has always meant that we don't have anyone telling us to play it safe or to avoid the topics that feel a bit too messy or uncomfortable for a boardroom full of dudes to handle. And I never take that for granted. If we help you feel a little bit less alone or more connected through the conversations with fascinating women that Kate Langbrook's having on No Filter or one of our other shows, or if we help you feel more informed with the stories that your group chat is really reading on the Mamma Mia app, please consider, please, please becoming a subscriber.
Because your support really helps us keep telling the stories that matter to Australian women. As a Mamma Mia subscriber, you get unlimited access to everything. Every article, every video and every single podcast we make. You can even move with me. Subscribers get full access to our at-home fitness app, including my new weights program launching soon. I promise with an expert and not just me.
