Princess Eugenie marries Jack Brooksbank

Britain's Princess Eugenie has married her longtime beau Jack Brooksbank at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle and the newlyweds will soon ride through town in a horse-drawn carriage to wave to well-wishers.

The couple got engaged in January after several years of dating.

Eugenie's sister Beatrice, wearing an outfit by Ralph and Russo and a hat by Sarah Cant, served as her maid of honor and The Rt. Revd. David Conner officiated the service.

Princess Eugenie's wedding gown has a fitted bodice and pleated skirt, the royal family's press department confirmed. Created by Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos, the dress features a neckline that folds around the shoulders to a low back that drapes into a flowing full-length train.

The princess also is wearing the Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara, lent to her by Queen Elizabeth II, her grandmother. It is made of brilliant and rose cut diamonds pavé set in platinum, with six emeralds on either side.

Conducted by Carlo Bernini, Andrea Bocelli and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra performed at the wedding ceremony.

The queen is planning to host a wedding reception for Eugenie and her new husband.

Eugenie is the younger daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. She is the cousin of Princes William and Harry and is eighth in the line of succession to the British throne.

Harry married Meghan Markle at St. George's Chapel in May.

In an interview to air Friday on ITV, Eugenie admitted, "It's definitely creeping up on us now, the nerves," but she said she had no intention of backing out.

"Never. It was love at first sight that's why," she said.

Brooksbank recalled how he and Eugenie were skiing at a friend's place in Switzerland when they first spotted each other..

"She's this bright, shining light," Brooksbank said.

"Jack's the kind of guy, you know when you're lost at a party and you can't find anyone to talk to, and you start panicking and you need help? He'll walk in and make everyone feel so special," Eugenie said. "He'll scoop you up and talk to you and make you feel a million dollars."

Aladdin finds the Genie's lamp in a cave in new Disney trailer

Walt Disney Studios released a teaser trailer for its upcoming, live-action remake of the animated movie musical, Aladdin.

The 90-second clip has gotten more than 2 million views since it was posted Friday.

An instrumental version of "Arabian Nights" plays as the camera pans over a desert, through the ancient, fictional city of Agrabah and back to an isolated cave with a lion's face that says: "Only one may enter here. ... The diamond in the rough."

The titular hero -- played by Mena Massoud -- is first shown in silhouette at the opening of the cave, which is revealed to contain mountains of treasure. A slower rendition of "Ain't Never Had a Friend Like Me" plays in the background.

The clip ends with Aladdin picking up a lamp.

Set for theatrical release on May 24, the movie is directed by Guy Ritchie.

"Aladdin is the exciting tale of the charming street rat Aladdin, the courageous and self-determined Princess Jasmine and the Genie who may be the key to their future," a synopsis said.

Naomi Scott plays Jasmine and Will Smith plays the Genie.

Julia Roberts says divorce rumors hurt: 'I'm so proud of my marriage'

Julia Roberts says divorce rumors still have the power to hurt her.

The 50-year-old actress discussed the impact of tabloid reports on herself, husband Danny Moder and their family in an interview with Oprah Winfrey for the November issue of Harper's Bazaar.

"Sometimes we are in the grocery store and I won't even know something is out, but we'll see a tabloid and we'll all be standing there like, 'Oh, that's uncomfortable. This is really uncomfortable,'" Roberts said.

"It can still hurt my feelings, because I'm so proud of my marriage," she explained. "We just celebrated being married for 16 years this Fourth of July, and there's so much happiness wrapped up in what we've found together."

Roberts and Moder married in July 2002 and are parents to 13-year-old twins, daughter Hazel and son Phinneaeus, and 11-year-old son Henry. Roberts said she's able to laugh off many rumors due to the obvious discrepancies.

"What I like is when they write, 'the $150 million divorce,' and then a week later a different tabloid says, 'the $275 million divorce.' I'm like, 'Well, somebody got a paycheck in the last week. This is getting good,'" she said.

Roberts shared a rare photo with Moder in September after joining Instagram over the summer. The picture shows the actress embracing Moder during a day at the beach.

"Oh Summer, thank you! You made us happy and brave. We embraced every moment of sun drenched JOY #familytime," she wrote.

Roberts will next star in the Amazon series Homecoming, which premieres Nov. 2.

Which rock icon is postponing the last four dates of his concert tour?

Ozzy Osbourne has announced he is postponing the last four dates on his concert tour as he must undergo surgery to treat an infection in his hand.

"I'm so (expletive) bummed about canceling these shows," Osbourne said in a statement on his website. "The tour had been going great and we were really looking forward to these last few gigs. We're hoping everyone will be patient and we'll look forward to seeing them at the shows next year."

The four No More Tours 2 shows that will be rescheduled in 2019 are Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, Calif.; Mattress Firm Amphitheatre in Chula Vista; the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles; and MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Tickets for the four shows will be honored for the rescheduled dates. Refunds are also available at point of purchase.

"People keep asking me when I'm retiring," Osbourne said last November when the tour was announced. "This will be my final world tour, but I can't say I won't do some shows here and there."
