We’re still unclear on what exactly led to Justin Chamber’s exit from Grey’s Anatomy — as fans, we were certainly shocked to hear the news earlier this month. And while we also knew we wouldn’t be seeing Dr. Alex Karev on the show again (ABC confirmed that his last episode had already aired), we were still hoping for more of a sendoff than we got last night. Grey’s Anatomy barely mentioned Alex Karev’s departure in their Season 16 midseason premiere (and first crossover with Station 19) last night, and Twitter, uh, has some feelings about how they handled it....

This article contains spoilers for the first 5 episodes of Love Is Blind season 2. When the first 5 episodes of Love is Blind season 2 dropped on Netflix last week, fans rushed to their TVs to tune into the new season of the reality-show-slash-“social-experiment,” eager to get to know the contestants looking for love via the show’s iconic “pods” without the pressures of considering physical appearance. For many viewers, however, that excitement soon turned to disappointment when it became clear that even a show that claims to help people “be loved for who they are, not for their looks, their race, their background or their income” cannot escape the insidious presence of the fatphobia that pervades American society, both in terms of the behavior of its contestants and the show’s own production, meting out limited time to the only two plus-sized cast members and featuring two dramatic weight-loss storylines alongside these cast members’ inclusion....

Amber Stevens West picks up the phone at 9:00 a.m., sounding enthusiastic and well-rested as ever — despite having been awake since the crack of dawn. But such is the life of the optimistic actor, who is currently pregnant, raising a 2-year-old, and busy promoting her new show, Run the World. “No, it’s not Gaga on the phone,” she tells her daughter, laughing. “I’m gonna leave the room so they can play,” she then says to me, leaving her sister, interim babysitter, to occupy the sprightly toddler as we speak....

As we close out the year, it only makes sense that our attention turns to how we can grow, change and manifest all we need to feel better in the future. New Year’s resolutions are a great way to set goals and positive intentions, especially those concerning your health. But many resolutions fade by the spring because they’re unrealistic and not set up for long-term success. In order for you to stick to your goals, they need to be sustainable and actionable....

In the years since giving birth to her daughter, Olympia, Serena Williams has shared how her birthing experience — like too many Black mothers in the United States — proved to be traumatic and high-risk. In her case, she’s opened up about how her previous experiences with scary health emergencies led to her having to be her own advocate and save her own life after her delivery. Adapted from part of an anthology collected by Amy Schumer and Christy Turlington Burns dropping on April 5, the Arrival Stories: Women Share Their Experiences of Becoming Mothers, Williams recounted her birthing story to ELLE....

Details in the Bill and Melinda Gates’ divorce are about to get a bit more complicated. It seems that their 27-year marriage wasn’t the fairy-tale romance we had been led to believe, per sources that have spoke to the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and now Vanity Fair. According to former employees of the Microsoft founder and other unnamed sources, it appears that many of Gates’ professional contacts often crossed the line into “inappropriate extramarital relationship[s]” with Vanity Fair sources now claiming this conduct was an “open secret” at work....

Every once in a while we need a reminder that you can’t believe everything you see on social media.
