Paulie’s girlfriend, Cara Marie Sorbello, was equally pleased to learn the news. “IM SO F—KIN HAPPY FOR YOU GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSSS YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!! Love you guys both so much,” she replied. “Most beautiful couple ever ❤❤❤❤❤ way to go cody! Shes def always been the ‘one’ ❤🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌.”

The former soccer player — who appeared on Big Brother seasons 16 and 22 — and LaRatta have been dating since September 2015. As their romance continued to heat up, Cody stood fervently by his bride-to-be’s side as she battled stage 2 Hodgkin lymphoma.

“It’s insane how in the blink of an eye someone can come along and completely change everything for you in life,” the “Winner’s Circle” podcast host wrote via Instagram in February 2017. “6 months ago, my beautiful girlfriend Cristie was diagnosed with cancer. Today I am very happy to say she’s going in for her last chemo treatment and I couldn’t be more proud of the strength and resilience she has shown through this crazy time in her life.”

After completing chemotherapy in 2017, LaRatta found out that she was in remission. Just as Cody supported her amid her diagnosis, she remained in his corner when he returned for Big Brother’s “All Stars” season in 2020. After his unanimous victory over Enzo Palumbo, Cody exclusively teased to Us Weekly that he would only return for a third Big Brother season if LaRatta was on board.

“If Big Brother ever calls, there’s no way I can not say yes. If Cristie lets me,” he told Us in October 2020 after his win. “I don’t know what she went through during this. I know it was definitely hard for her. I appreciate everything Big Brother’s ever done for me. The first time was a great opportunity. This time was an incredible opportunity. So if they need me, who am I to say no?”

Smell like a Kardashian — and throw your friends for a loop like Donald Glover . Kourtney Kardashian  doesn’t have to go to Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory to find her Golden Ticket when fragrance brand Snif offers her favorite scent by the same name. “Have your tea and wear it too,” the company says of the fragrance, which features notes of “bergamot, black tea, green tea, golden matĂ©, sage, galbanum (green, woody), incense, amber [and] vetiver,” according to their official website . Snif — which encourages shoppers to “trust your own damn nose” — promises buyers “accessible luxury” to their products, which also includes candles.

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
