Glen Powell may be busy in Hollywood but he always makes time for his two sisters, Lauren and Leslie.
Their parents, Cyndy Powell and Glen Powell Sr., welcomed Lauren first in 1986, followed by Glen two years later. Cyndy and Glen Sr. completed their family with the addition of Leslie in 1992.
The youngest Powell sibling is an accomplished musician whose work has appeared in various TV shows, movies and commercials. She’s even worked on the score for several projects that starred her brother, including Twisters and Anyone But You.
Glen raved about his little sister’s talents as a musician in a March 2014 interview with Nylon, admitting she was “no doubt my favorite artist of all.”
“Nothing puts me in a better mood than [Leslie’s] music,” he said. “Remember the name. She’s a star.”
Glen became an uncle when his elder sister, Lauren, welcomed her first set of twins, Witt and Gwen. His niece and nephew have often attended premieres for his movies, while his sisters also share their support for him online. Leslie congratulated her brother on his 2024 Golden Globe nomination for his work on Hit Man in a May 2024 Instagram post.
“I remember when you were first dreaming up and writing ‘Hit Man,’ during quarantine…and now it has turned into a Golden Globe nomination,” she wrote. “I am so happy for you, and rooting for you til the end!!!”
From Leslie’s career as a musician to Lauren’s life with twins, here’s everything to know about Glen Powell’s sisters.
They grew up in Texas

Alongside their parents, Cyndy and Glen Sr., the Powell children were raised in Austin, Texas. After the couple wed in 1984, they welcomed their first daughter, Lauren, in 1986. Two years later, Glen was born, followed by their third child, Leslie, in 1992.
The Devotion actor opened up about his time growing up in Texas in a March 2023 profile with Texas Highways where he remembered often heading out on “family road trips” alongside Lauren and Leslie.
With all the Powell children grown up, he added that nowadays they have a “family ranch in East Texas” where they all connect with one another. “Kicking it with the family and gathering everybody, that’s magical,” Glen said.
After spending time in Los Angeles as his career took off, Glen moved back to his home state in 2024 partly to be closer to his family. After reaching industry acclaim with hits including Top Gun: Maverick and Anyone But You, he told The Hollywood Reporter his flourishing career allowed him to “earn the ability to go back to my family.”

Glen isn’t the only Powell sibling working in the entertainment industry. Leslie, who is a working musician, explained in a September 2023 interview with Canvas Rebel that throughout their adolescence, Cyndy and Glen Sr. gave her and her siblings “the freedom to try anything and make mistakes,” which led her to pursue music as a career.
“Even though a career in the arts may seem like an impossible feat, my parents believed in us, supported us, and gave us the confidence to pursue our dreams,” she added.
As an artist, Leslie primarily lends her music to TV and film, including “shows to movie trailers, movies to commercials and sports promos,” she explained, adding that her primary task is to “write and perform music that helps bring people’s visual dreams to life.” Notably, much of Leslie’s music is licensed in the sports world. She’s worked on sound for the Women’s World Cup, Super Bowl LIV and Angel City FC.
Leslie’s track, “Here Comes The Queen,” was Angel City FC’s official walkout song during the 2022 season. She celebrated the accomplishment in a May 2022 Instagram post with a video of the athletes and her track playing in the background.
“Hearing my voice and song I created with friends fill a stadium was such a surreal experience, and I am so grateful for the opportunity!!” she wrote in the caption of the video. “These players are total bad a—- and I am honored to be a small part in their journey!”
Lauren is expecting her second set of twins

After marrying her husband, Will Whatton, in 2014, Lauren welcomed her first set of twin babies, Witt and Gwen. The children are avid supporters of Glen’s career and have walked the red carpet with him for the July 2024 premiere of Twisters and the May 2022 debut of Top Gun: Maverick.
Around eight years after Witt and Gwen’s arrival, Lauren revealed she was expecting her second set of twins with a photo of six pumpkins symbolizing their growing family alongside two onesies and sonogram photos.
“The spookiest surprise of all…It’s TWINS AGAIN!!” she captioned the October 2024 Instagram post.
Leslie got married in March 2025

Glen’s younger sibling, Leslie, announced her engagement to her fiancé with a heartfelt post on Instagram in October 2024. The pair got engaged at the BMO Stadium, and in true Powell fashion, her whole family was in attendance.
The “Looking at the Devil” singer shared a series of photos to celebrate her engagement, including a group photo of herself, her fiancé, Glen, Lauren, Will, Witt, Gwen, Cyndy and Glen Sr. celebrating the exciting news. “YES YES and YES!💍 The BEST NIGHT EVER!!
In late March 2025, Leslie got married with her family in attendance. Notably, Glen’s Anyone But You costar, Sydney Sweeney, also attended the wedding as she reportedly built a close friendship with Leslie while making the rom-com.

Leslie has lent her musical talents to several of her brother’s projects. She worked on the music for the 2024 action movie Twisters, Glen’s 2023 romantic comedy Anyone But You and Netflix’s Set It Up.
Aside from music credits, Leslie has also appeared as an extra in several of Glen’s films, including the 2016 NASA drama Hidden Figures, the 1980s-inspired comedy Everybody Wants Some!! and the 2006 drama Jumping Off Bridges.

Lauren and Leslie are incredibly proud of their brother’s success. While their parents famously attend many events for Glen’s projects, his siblings often celebrate his accomplishments on social media.
Lauren congratulated Glen on his “triple threat” status with the release of Hit Man, which he starred in, wrote and produced, with a May 2024 Instagram post. His elder sister later commemorated him being inducted into the Texas Film Hall of Fame in the same month.
Leslie lent her congratulations to her elder brother after he was nominated for a Golden Globe for his work on the film. In the caption of her December 2024 Instagram post, she sang Glen’s praises, admitting that she’s “never seen anyone work harder” on a project and that “words can’t describe how proud I am of you @glenpowell.”
They’re very close

The Powell family is tight-knit and they spend a lot of time together. The Set It Up actor expressed his love for his family in a 2014 interview with Nylon during which he called them his “huge, rowdy, Texas crew.”
“[They] get me in all the right kinds of trouble,” he said of his parents and sister. “If you are lucky enough to meet them, you’ll figure out quickly why I’m constantly home and that all of my farfetched and seemingly impossible stories about my family are actually all true.”
Whether they’re together in Texas or traveling around the world, Glen’s “Texas crew” always stays close. Lauren shared an Instagram Reel in October 2024 sharing their families’ travels to Cape Town, South Africa, where the whole group was in attendance.
In another Instagram post, the eldest Powell shared a series of photos and videos of the whole family supporting Glen at a University of Texas football game in October 2023 after being honored as part of the 2023 class of Outstanding Young Texas Exes.
“Congrats to Glen and a win for UT. #posted✔️,” Lauren wrote in the caption.

Oprah’s Roomy Cargo Pants Are a Go-To Fall Style
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/oprahs-big-pocket-cargo-pants-5a1e945a3e654a8596b7bc3da4cbbd18.jpg)
Welcome to The Blueprint, where we break down the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and build them back up, piece by piece.
Oprah Winfrey is committed to cargo pants, so it’s obvious I have to break up with my boring pocketless pants as soon as possible.
Last fall in New York City, the media mogul wore a pair of big-pocket pants (a style she’s worn before) that prompted a light-bulb realization: I fear I have not given cargos a fighting chance. And for what? Boring pants that only have hidden pockets, or, in many cases, faux ones that can’t even stash a phone.
Not long before Oprah showed off her brown cargos, Gwyneth Paltrow wore a navy blue pair with a cropped trench coat. That gives me another reason to feel confident about trying this offbeat pants style.

The rest of Oprah’s look was grand, too: Her purple sweater was ideal for fall thanks to its three-quarter sleeves, plus her comfy sneakers finished it with polished comfort (she also wore heels with the outfit at another point in the day, but let’s keep it casual). We rounded up similar big-pocket pants, sweaters, and kicks inspired by the TV icon.

When I use regular pockets, I’m super careful because, most of the time, they’re not deep enough, so things tend to fall out when I’m sitting. In other words, they’re not that secure, and that’s why I’m picking out pants with pockets that have more room or more compartments.
These from Amazon are “very durable” and “silky” to the touch, per the reviews. Also, according to one shopper who wore them while hiking, “The pockets were big enough to hold my phone and Chapstick, so I didn’t have to carry a big bag.” They also have drawstring cuffs, so you can tie them up if you don’t want to dirty them when walking around outdoors.
Liyohon Turtleneck Top
Amazon
I can’t stand feeling like an overstuffed burrito with a thick sweater packed into an even thicker coat in the fall or winter. So, I usually choose thinner layers, but I want them to keep me at least a little warm. This turtleneck “feels more like a light sweater than a T-shirt,” according to one shopper, and it has been worn under dresses and blazers, per many others.
The purple shade here is a little lighter than Oprah’s, but the three-quarter-length sleeves are, in my opinion, the most important thing to focus on here.
Somiliss Leather Suede Patchwork Sneakers
Amazon
Oprah also pulled a sneaky move when she did a little shoe change. We don’t know which pair came first — heels or sneakers — but I personally am a “go comfortable or go home” shoe gal, so I’m choosing option B.
In my book, suede makes anything more fall-worthy, but it can be tricky on shoes. I don’t want to have to spritz a protectant spray all over, so a pair with just a little bit of the soft texture feels easier to manage long term. The soles on these look serrated like Oprah’s, which make me believe that they’d be incredibly grippy.

Karlie Kloss welcomes third baby with husband Joshua Kushner

Karlie Kloss’ brood just got bigger.
The model has given birth to her and husband Joshua Kushner’s third baby — a girl. Kushner announced the news via Instagram Saturday by posting a photo of the newborn and revealing her name: “Rae Florence 9.18.2025 🤍.”
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel announced her pregnancy news in a March Instagram post debuting her bump.
“Three’s a party 🥹🫶🎉,” Kloss wrote at the time.
The caption referenced her and Kushner’s eldest two children — sons Levi and Elijah — who appeared in the social media upload.
Levi was born in March 2021, followed by Elijah in July 2023.
While awaiting baby No. 3, Kloss continued to show off her budding belly at the Met Gala, WNBA games and more events.
She rocked a black off-the-shoulder gown to ring in Kushner’s 40th birthday at a star-studded bash in June.
“I have loved growing up together, and can’t wait to grow old together,” Kloss captioned a celebratory tribute to the “love of [her] life and best friend” via Instagram.
The Kode With Klossy founder and Kushner have been together since 2012.
The businessman got down on one knee in July 2018, and the duo walked down the aisle in upstate New York three months post-proposal.
The duo went on to have a second wedding ceremony in Wyoming in 2019.
Although the pair primarily keep their romance out of the public eye over the years, Kloss insisted to Net-a-Porter in 2018 that they “have nothing to hide.”
In May, she explained to “Aspire” podcast listeners that their “partnership is so solid” because they met when she was a teenager.
“We’ve grown up together,” Kloss gushed. “He’s always been my biggest champion.”

Prince Harry Made Secret Visit to Another Member of Royal Family During U.K. Trip
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/Prince-Harry-092025-a3465016e82d44eb91e21f2d9ad9b0cd.jpg)
NEED TO KNOW
- Prince Harry’s four-day visit to the U.K. included a secret visit to another member of the royal family
- According to Hello!, Harry visited Kensington Palace to pay his respects to Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, following the death of his wife, Katharine, the Duchess of Kent
- Harry “loved catching up with family, friends and colleagues” during his trip to Britain, a source said
Prince Harry’s four-day visit to the U.K. included a reunion with his father, King Charles, after nearly two years, as well as a secret visit to another member of the royal family.
According to a report from Hello! published on Saturday, Sept. 20, Harry, 41, privately visited Kensington Palace to “personally pay his respects and offer condolences” to Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, following the death of his wife, Katharine, the Duchess of Kent. She died on Sept. 4 at the age of 92.
Although Harry was not able to attend Katharine’s funeral on Sept. 16, as he had already left the U.K., a source close to the Duke of Sussex told the outlet that he “loved catching up with family, friends and colleagues.”
“His only regret was not being able to stay longer and see more people, but the meetings in Ukraine had been in the diary for a long time, and it mattered to him to be there in person to see the Invictus Games Foundation’s growing work and the progress at Superhumans,” the source added.
“The whole trip felt like a real success for everyone involved,” the source said. “His passion for his patronages and the causes he cares about hasn’t dimmed one bit — he’s already buzzing to get back and do more.”

The Duke of Sussex made several public appearances during his U.K. trip, including at the WellChild Awards in London on Sept. 8, where he crouched to greet children, wrapped families in hugs and cracked jokes. In Nottingham the next day, he danced into a room at the Community Recording Studio (CRS), laughing and bantering with young activists.
“He’s still the same person,” said CRS’s Trevor Rose. “He wants to feel the energy here. He cares — and that’s the main thing.”

One of the most newsworthy moments came when Harry arrived at Clarence House on Sept. 10, and disappeared inside for a long-awaited, private meeting with King Charles. He emerged just under one hour later — and experts were quick to point out that this visit could be the first step on the road to reconciliation with his father.
“It’s a massive step in the right direction,” Queen Elizabeth’s former spokeswoman Ailsa Anderson told PEOPLE following the historic meeting. “It’s a building of trust.”

Harry and the King, 76, have been estranged for more than 18 months. As PEOPLE previously reported, the meeting not only served as a chance for the Duke of Sussex to rekindle his relationship with his father, but also with his brother, Prince William.
While the encounter marked a hopeful step forward, royal insiders caution that a long road lies ahead before full reconciliation can take place.
“It shows the way forward,” an insider with ties to both sides told PEOPLE. “It is a good starting point.”
Just a few days after the meeting, Harry made a surprise visit to Kyiv, Ukraine, with his Invictus Games Foundation and spoke with The Guardian while there.
“The focus really has to be on my dad,” he said, while also acknowledging his past revelations in interviews and his memoir Spare. “My conscience is clear.”
When asked if he will ever bring his children to the U.K. despite his security concerns, Harry told the outlet, “Yes, I would. This week has definitely brought that closer.”
“Whatever has gone on in the past, it is good to see the family trying to repair itself or communicate at least,” a source with close ties to the palace added to PEOPLE. “Everyone has to have compassion for all sides.”
After visiting the U.K. and Ukraine, Harry returned to Montecito, Calif., to be with wife Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4. On Saturday, Sept. 20, Meghan, 44, and Harry stepped out together to the One805LIVE! concert, which supports Santa Barbara County’s first responders and was held at Kevin Costner‘s oceanside estate in California.
