"American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest and his partner of three years, Aubrey Paige, have called it quits on their relationship.

Seacrest and Paige started dating in May 2o21, and while they mostly kept their romance out of the public eye, they occasionally showed love to each other on social media.

The former couple's decision to break up is reportedly "mutual," with a source noting that the pair intend to be in each other's lives as friends.

According to People magazine, Seacrest's rep confirmed that the couple had broken up. A source, however, told the news outlet that they plan to continue supporting each other's endeavors.

"After three beautiful years together, Ryan and Aubrey have mutually decided to part ways," the source said. "They plan to stay in each other's lives as good friends and support one another's endeavors."

Seacrest, 49, and Paige, 26, went public with their romance in May 2021 after they were spotted together celebrating Memorial Day in the Hamptons.

The former kept their relationship relatively quiet despite making a number of joint appearances on different occasions over the years, such as the LACMA 2022 Collectors Committee Gala and the June 2022 premiere of Jennifer Lopez's documentary, "Halftime."

Although the pair ended things amicably, sources revealed to Radar Online that Seacrest felt "pressure" to propose to Paige and start a family.

The news outlet previously reported that Seacrest's friends had warned him that he might lose Paige, who was allegedly eager to get married, if he didn't pop the question.

"A lot of people rolled their eyes when Ryan first started dating Aubrey because of the age difference, but his friends have come to admire her," a source said last year, 2023.

They added, "Aubrey's really been there for Ryan. She's helped him get back on track after his health scare from a couple years back. Ryan's going to lose another one if he doesn't step up to the plate."

Insiders also speculated that Seacrest's decision to exit "Live" was an indicator of his intention to start a family with Paige.

A source told the news outlet that the model was "clear from day one that she's not just interested in getting married. She wants a guarantee the deal will include having children."

They further claimed that "She wants kids, and she wants them with Ryan," however, the 49-year-old allegedly did not possess the same desire for children and marriage.

"He's always on the run, and can't even imagine how he'd handle all his projects if he was kept awake by the cries of a newborn," the source further noted, per Radar.

Ryan Seacrest And Aubrey Paige Showed Each Other Love On Social Media

Despite opting for a private relationship away from the spotlight, Seacrest and Paige occasionally flaunted their romance on social media.

The model shared cute photos of her and Seacrest on New Year's Eve, 2021. The pair looked happy in the images, as they both had broad smiles on their faces. Paige also planted a kiss on Seacrest's cheek in one of the photos.

She captioned the image, "Safe to say the best part of 2021 was meeting the most incredible man.
Wishing everyone love, happiness, safety & health in 2022."

Paige was by Seacrest's side when he bowed out of being the co-host of "Live" with Kelly Ripa. She also shared a loving post afterward, calling Seacrest the most "inspiring" man she has ever met.

"Ryan, never have I ever met a more inspiring man… You make it look so easy, but the truth is there is just nobody quite like you," Paige wrote at the time. "I am so beyond proud of you. Not just for your work ethic, but for your caring heart and the genuine love that you give to others."

Just this month, Seacrest took to his Instagram page to congratulate Paige on her wine game. He wrote, "Congratulations @aubreypaige_ for bringing this great idea to life, so proud of you @sippinonsomethin."

Fans React To The News Of The Couple's Separation

Fans of the duo's romance have since shared their thoughts on the breakup, with some claiming that Seacrest "will never commit to marriage."

One person wrote on Paige's Instagram post, "Sorry to hear about you & Ryan! You made a cute couple!"

Another commented, "Oh man..relationships..You are beautiful..Hold Your head high."

A third person noted, "You are gorgeous! Ryan's ex found her Romeo, you will too. Hang in there, it's coming."

"You are a classy girl. No one hates you! The memory will last forever and I am sure that you have a bright future ahead of you!!" another fan of the model remarked.

Leading L.A. vegan restaurant goes un-vegan. 'I knew the vitriol that would come my way'

On Earth Day chef Mollie Engelhart took to social media with an announcement that rocked L.A.’s vegan community: Her pillar of plant-based dining, Sage Vegan Bistro, would become Sage Regenerative Kitchen & Brewery and begin serving meat and dairy.

Following a vegan diet, the chef-owner said, is no longer enough to combat climate change, so the new iteration of Sage will focus on sourcing and proselytizing regenerative farming practices. That, along with years of post-pandemic financial losses, moved Engelhart to introduce beef, bison, cheese and eggs from regenerative farms into her Echo Park, Culver City and Pasadena restaurants.

The backlash on social media was swift. More than 3,000 comments have poured in, some calling it “a sham,” “deeply disturbing,” “a bummer announcement,” “a huge betrayal to animals,” “devastating,” a “horrific transition” and “profit disguised as environmental progress.” Dozens of vegan and animal-wellness organizations and influencers have shared the news, some calling for a boycott.

“I understand their passion and I understand their sadness and I understand their anger,” Engelhart told The Times. “I had the same views of the world that they did before I shifted my ideas based on my experience in farming, and I have compassion for what they're feeling. I hope that the vegan community and the regenerative community can really come together because I think they're both powerful, powerful pathways for change.

“It's vulnerable to publicly say, ‘I believed one thing, and maybe I was wrong and now I believe something else,’” she continued, “but I hope that it inspires people in their own lives to be willing to be open-minded when something else makes more sense to you.”

Engelhart opened Sage in Echo Park in 2011. Starting May 29, the changes will roll out at that restaurant as well as in Culver City and her Pasadena brewpub.

Vegan items will remain, such as buffalo cauliflower, tempeh burgers and the Brazilian-inspired bowl featuring kale, black beans and plantains, but new items including folded “pizza sandwiches” will be available — plant-based and not. Beef and bison will hit the menus. Ramen will be added with options for vegan or chicken broth. Fried eggs and carne asada can be added to existing menu items. Additionally, a new initiative to remove seed oils from the restaurants will mean a switch to nut-based vegan cheeses.

Engelhart contemplated the decision for 18 months before pulling the trigger. “I guess that my back had to be really against the wall to be brave enough to do it because I knew the vitriol that would come my way,” she said. “My restaurants have been really struggling, like so many restaurants post-pandemic.”

According to Engelhart — who operates Sage with her husband, chef-owner Elias Sosa — in years past the restaurants would do $7 million in annual business. But they haven’t been profitable since 2020. To offset the financial losses they closed the Agoura Hills location, flipped the Culver City restaurant into a to-go outpost, and sold their RV, home and Fillmore farm, called Sow a Heart, which previously provided Sage with roughly 20% to 25% of its produce.

Multiple formerly all-vegan L.A. restaurants have opted to include meat and dairy on menus in recent years, including Hot Tongue and Burgerlords, citing financial viability. By not offering items that appeal to omnivores, restaurants in theory lose out on business; an increase in restaurants offering vegan options, in addition to all-vegan restaurants opening each year, also can make success as an all-vegan restaurant more challenging.

While Engelhart said the decision is partially a financial one, the larger factor is promoting regenerative farming and more ecologically sustainable practices. That topic first caught her attention more than a decade ago via a TED Talk by author and agricultural consultant Graeme Sait, which touched on soil degradation and studies linking it to climate change. It sent her on a years-long mission to dive into regenerative agriculture, a term with no one-size-fits-all definition that could apply to a number of farming practices. It often encapsulates closed-loop soil and feeding systems that offset and capture carbon, usually relying on a number of animals, natural fertilization and other factors to improve the land.

Her brother, Ryland Engelhart, co-founded regenerative-farming nonprofit Kiss the Ground; Mollie Engelhart serves as director of its board. In 2018 she and her husband bought a family farm and started fighting food waste, transporting the compostable byproduct from her restaurants to their farm and placing it back into the soil. After selling their family farm in California, they moved to Texas and built Sovereignty Ranch, which also hosts workshops for practices such as homesteading and dome building.

The ranch’s supply chain is still in planning phases with the exception of its corn, used for masa, which will make its way into Sage’s tortillas. When Sage flips to its new menu next month, Engelhart and Sosa plan to serve beef and bison that are all grass-fed and -finished on partner farms via mob grazing, or the practice of moving the animals daily to allow grass and soil to regrow and regenerate nutrients in between grazing. Chickens at Sage will be pasture-raised and also moved daily. Origin Milk, based in Ohio, will produce some of Sage’s dairy products, including cheese.

“I'm not just saying I'm adding meat to the menu to try to get more customers,” Engelhart said. “I'm saying that I think the most important pathway forward for sequestering carbon is bovine on grass, and in order for us to have that at scale, we need people to support it.”

Engelhart garnered the attention of animal rights nonprofit PETA, which took to Instagram to lambaste her announcement. A representative for PETA told The Times that Engelhart’s announcement is an example of “greenwashing,” or using sustainability buzzwords to attract or distract customers.

“Sage Bistro is trying to rebrand itself as a champion of the environment while serving meat, and it's like a firefighter spraying fuel on the flames and saying they're doing something to help,” said Amber Canavan, a vegan-campaigns project manager for PETA. She added that terms such as “humane,” “free range,” “pastured” and “regenerative” are “meaningless labels” that “ultimately still involve the violent death of an individual who did not want to die.”

“I'm profoundly aware of how people use some of these practices for greenwashing,” Engelhart said. “But I'm also profoundly aware of how these practices — when implemented correctly — make a profound difference.”

According to a 2022 study of more than 100 farmers by environmental nonprofit the Natural Resources Defense Council, regenerative farming results in reduced chemicals and healthier soil, which could trap carbon and aid in water retention. The same report stated these practices “fight the climate crisis, grow healthier food, protect the environment, rebuild rural farming communities, and make farming profitable again.”

Not everyone agrees. A 2022 academic review by biochemist William H. Schlesinger, formerly of the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, found that most regenerative-farming practices “are not likely to lead to a large net sequestration of organic carbon in soils,” sometimes due to the requirement of additional practices that create their own carbon dioxide emissions.

This week Sage’s team has been fielding questions about these practices, as well as its thousands of social media comments.

Some have responded positively to the announcement. Instagram follower Jenna Rainey Pezzolo wrote, “I know this decision didn’t come lightly or easily and I respect your ability to pivot and continue to honor our earth.” Others began verbally attacking Engelhart personally.

“I saw them calling me a murderer like my father because my father has a small dairy farm in Idaho,” Engelhart said. Her father, Matthew Engelhart, is a co-owner of vegan restaurants Gracias Madre and Cafe Gratitude.

“My father ate a hamburger for the first time in 40 years in 2015, and it was massively impactful to all of our businesses. It had a huge impact because people were really upset.”

(According to Engelhart, experts had informed her father that one of his farm’s cows was not saveable, and he opted to harvest and eat its meat when it died.)

Mollie Engelhart still does not eat meat. The chef-owner considers herself vegetarian while at home, opting to make her own yogurt, sour cream and kefir from her cows’ milk, but she is vegan when dining out as ingredient provenance and farming practices are less clear.

According to the World Resources Institute, beef requires 20 times more land and emits 20 times more greenhouse gas per gram of edible protein than beans and most other plant-based proteins.

“Here's the thing: People are still eating meat everywhere I look,” Engelhart said. “If you want to eat meat ... where can you go get high-quality meat that was raised in a way that is reversing climate change rather than causing climate change? It's a numbers game. … I think that the next step forward is regenerative agriculture, and for that to move forward it needs to be in the zeitgeist, it needs to be in our everyday conversations. And this is my way to contribute to that, to give people options.”

Billie Eilish Speaks on Her Sexuality: "I’ve Been in Love With Girls for My Whole Life"

Billie Eilish Speaks on Her Sexuality: "I’ve Been in Love With Girls for My Whole Life"

After her historic (second) Oscar win, Billie Eilish is officially dropping new music next month. The musician made waves at Coachella this year when she teased her latest track, "Lunch," during a surprise appearance at the festival. "I could eat that girl for lunch / And she dances on my tongue / Tastes like she might be the one," she muses on the track, which seemingly addresses her queer sexuality. As Rolling Stone's latest cover star, Billie got candid about her coming out experience while promoting her upcoming album, HIT ME HARD AND SOFT.

"That song was actually part of what helped me become who I am, to be real," Billie said of "Lunch." She continued, "I wrote some of it before even doing anything with a girl, and then wrote the rest after. I’ve been in love with girls for my whole life, but I just didn’t understand — until, last year, I realized I wanted my face in a vagina. I was never planning on talking about my sexuality ever, in a million years. It's really frustrating to me that it came up."

Throughout her career, Billie has kept her love life under wraps (reminder: even public figures don't owe us a glimpse into their life, tyvm). In November 2023, she spoke about being "attracted to" and "intimidated by" women in Variety's Power of Women issue. "I love them so much. I love them as people. I'm attracted to them as people. I'm attracted to them for real," she explained. "I have deep connections with women in my life, the friends in my life, the family in my life. I'm physically attracted to them. But I'm also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence."

At Variety's Hitmakers event the following month, the "What Was I Made For?" singer revealed that she didn't have any intentions of coming out during her initial interview. "I kind of thought, 'Wasn't it obvious'? I didn't realize people didn't know. I just don't really believe in it. I'm just like, 'Why can't we just exist'? I've been doing this for a long time, and I just didn't talk about it. Whoops," she said on the red carpet.

After the event, she posted on Instagram and fired back at the publication in her caption. "Thanks variety for my award and for also outing me on a red carpet at 11 am instead of talking about anything else that matters i like boys and girls leave me alone about it please literally who cares stream 'what was i made for'🥸," she wrote at the time. Since then, she's reflected on the moment and admitted that she overreacted.

In her Rolling Stone interview, she clarified, "The whole world suddenly decided who I was, and I didn't get to say anything or control any of it. Nobody should be pressured into being one thing or the other, and I think that there's a lot of wanting labels all over the place. Dude, I've known people that don’t know their sexuality, or feel comfortable with it, until they’re in their forties, fifties, sixties. It takes a while to find yourself, and I think it's really unfair, the way that the internet bullies you into talking about who you are and what you are."

"I know everybody's been thinking this about me for years and years, but I'm only figuring out myself now," Billie added. "And honestly, what I said was funny, because I really was just saying what they've all been saying."
