Start your engines racing fans because the F1 Miami Grand Prix is about to be a special date night for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
The Grammy winner and Kansas City Chiefs player are set to join Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes at the event this weekend, a source confirmed to Us Weekly.
Both Kelce, 34, and Patrick, 28, are investors in the Alpine F1 team, which has a long sporting link with Miami. Golf star Rory McIlroy and actor Ryan Reynolds are also investors, but it's unclear if they will be in attendance.
This weekend's events – held at Hard Rock Stadium – come in the middle of the NFL offseason and during a pause in Swift's ErasTour.
During their time off, Swift, 34, and Kelce have been able to spend quality time together, including a private getaway to the Bahamas and a trip to the Coachella Music Festival.
Most recently, the couple, traveled to Las Vegas to show their support for Patrick's charity event. While attending the 15 and the Mahomies Vegas Golf Classic on April 27, Kelce offered four tickets to one of Swift's upcoming Eras tour dates during the live auction.
After a fierce bidding war, the tickets ended up selling for $80,000 with proceeds benefiting Patrick's nonprofit.

Swift and Kelce started their love story last summer. Since then, the "Karma" singer has been to 13 Kansas City Chiefs games and developed a bond with Brittany, 28.
"Brittany is thrilled to be building a genuine friendship with Taylor," a source exclusively told Us in October 2023. "They've hung out a couple of times and have grown fairly close in a short period of time. Brittany thinks Taylor is so sweet and down to earth and they get along really great."
As for Kelce, he's taken on the role of MVP cheerleader for Swift as he attended several of her international Eras Tour dates shortly after winning the Super Bowl in February.
After the pair "deepened their bond" during "all the time they've spent together recently," a second insider told Us that resuming Swift's world tour in May will be bittersweet.
"It makes the prospect of her tour more challenging. She'll be sad," the source explained. "They support and respect [each other]. They have busy careers, so they understand those commitments, as difficult as it is."
"It's a little too soon to jump to any labels," Leviss' publicist, Juliette Harris, told Us Weekly in a statement on Tuesday, April 30, of the former reality star's new romance.
Harris confirmed that Leviss, 29, met Dunn "a little over a month ago." The twosome are "friends just getting to know each other," the publicist added, noting they are just "hanging out."
Leviss teased her new relationship earlier this month via social media, sharing a video on an ATV with Dunn and two other pals.

Fans were quick to pick up on Dunn's cameo in the video, with one replying in the comments section, "Okayyy!! Who is the hottie in the drivers seat

A second user teased, "This driver is definitely an upgrade, go girl!!"
Later that month, the Vanderpump Rules alum attended Stagecoach Music Festival in Indio, California, with a group of friends. Dunn, however, didn't appear to be part of Leviss' desert crew.
Dunn is a former sergeant in the United States Marine Corps, according to his LinkedIn profile. He is currently the CEO of Dunn Investment Group, which is headquartered in Spokane, Washington.
Leviss' choice to keep her budding romance with Dunn somewhat private comes after a very public breakup with Tom Sandoval in 2023.
Leviss and Sandoval, 40, began hooking up in late 2022 while Sandoval was dating and living with Ariana Madix. Us confirmed in March 2023 that Madix, 38, and Sandoval split after nine years together in the wake of the affair.
Sandoval and Leviss were grilled by their VPR costars during the season 10 reunion, which filmed that same month. Leviss subsequently checked herself into a mental health facility in April 2023 and in time cut off all communication with Sandoval.
Leviss chose not to return to VPR for season 11, and later took back her given name of "Rachel" as part of her personal refresh. Leviss declared that in 2024 she was focusing on herself and not worried about finding love again right away.
"I'm not dating for a year, and in doing that, I'm just focusing on myself and after this talk, focusing on my emotions that come up for me," Leviss said on a January episode of her "Rachel Goes Rogue" podcast. "Like what are my own needs that I need met? And not adding an additional person into the equation. So that it is just focused on me and other people as well my friends and family and the people that are in my inner circle that are safe friends."
The following month, Leviss took legal action against Madix and Sandoval, claiming they eavesdropped on her, invaded her privacy and administered revenge porn after her affair with Sandoval.
While Madix confirmed that she did learn about Sandoval's cheating through a video of him and Leviss "having phone sex," she denied she shared the footage with anyone but Leviss.
Both Sandoval and Madix have filed legal documents requesting the lawsuit be dismissed or amended. Madix also claimed in April court documents obtained by Us that Leviss' lawsuit was a way to "punish" and "blame" her for the "negative reaction" Leviss received for her part in the scandal.

Who Is Rob Marciano? 5 Things to Know About Fired ABC MeteorologistABC/Heidi Gutman
Rob Marciano's tenure with ABC News came to an end when the meteorologist was reportedly fired after a decade with the network.
According to an April 30 report from Puck News, the weatherman, who delivered forecasts for World News Tonight and Good Morning America's weekend edition throughout his tenure, was let go after "multiple staffers had made complaints about Marciano's behavior over the years."
At the time of publication, ABC News had no comment.
Marciano's exit came one year after Page Six reported in March 2023 that the news reporter had been "improper" with a colleague. At the time, a source told the outlet that GMA executive producer Simone Swink made the decision to bar Marciano from the Times Square set in NYC after he made people feel "uncomfortable."
"She's no-nonsense and is very serious," the insider said. "She's focused on the work and wants to keep [her staff] focused and happy. She's very protective of her team."
Despite stepping away from his GMA weekend gig, Marciano continued to contribute to ABC's news programs, including Worlds News Tonight. In September 2023, he celebrated his 10-year anniversary with the network.
"I couldn't be more pumped to continue this journey with all of you," Marciano wrote via Instagram at the time. "My thanks to the bosses who listened and made this work-life balance possible. I'm also grateful for an exciting new project with NatGeo that has me exploring some very very cool stuff… more to come!"
He added that the shift in programming would allow him to spend more time with his children: daughter Madelynn, 12, and son Mason, 6, whom he shares with ex-wife Eryn Marciano.
"I always dreamed of working for this network as a kid, and my children are equally psyched that I will now be home most weekends!" he said. "I'll continue doing what I'm doing, contributing across all shows and platforms Mon-Fri, while getting more quality time with my kiddos."

Zach Roloff in Urgent Care Ahead of Son's 2nd Birthday | D092HS4 | 2024-05-01 03:08:01
Zach Roloff in Urgent Care Ahead of Son's 2nd BirthdayTori and Zach Roloff.TLC
Zach and Tori Roloff's son Josiah's 2nd birthday got off to a rocky start.
"Today has been a doozy and I feel like it's times like these that God is telling us all to slow down," Tori began a lengthy Instagram Story message on Monday, April 29. "We ended up at urgent care to help get Zach some relief from sickness."
Though Tori, 31, didn't specify the type of illness Zach, 33, was dealing with, she did share that she suffered an injury of her own. "Our floors are being reinstalled and within 20 minutes of being home I threw my back out bad and can't move currently because I was trying to move furniture on my own," she explained.
The former TLC personality stated that she was feeling "guilt about tomorrow and how Josiah will (or if) he'll remember it," adding, "But I'm just praying he feels loved and celebrated." Tori also shouted out some friends who helped decorate their home for Josiah's big day. "I know he will feel a little more loves because of you three!!" she gushed.
Tori's life update was accompanied by a photo of presents for Josiah placed on their kitchen island, along with a truck-themed "Happy Birthday" sign and a No. 2 balloon. Earlier on Monday, Tori shared dozens of adorable Instagram Story photos of Josiah over the years, writing, "I can't believe this dude is going to be two tomorrow."
Tori later confirmed via Instagram that she and Zach were still under the weather for Josiah's birthday on Tuesday, April 30. "This birthday doesn't look the way I thought it would this year. Mom and dad are sick," she wrote in a sweet birthday tribute for their youngest child. "Mom threw out her back. And the house is torn apart to finish repairing the broken pipe we had. But Si guy we love you so much bigger than today and we will celebrate properly ASAP."

Zach and Tori tied the knot in 2015 and went on to welcome kids Jackson, 6, Lilah, 4, and Josiah in 2017, 2019 and 2022, respectively. After many years of sharing their family's lives on TLC's Little People, Big World, the couple and their kids appeared in their final episode of the reality series on April 23.
Zach's latest health scare comes one year after he underwent an emergency brain surgery in February 2023. "Zachary had an emergency shunt revision this morning," Tori shared via Instagram at the time, alongside photos of Zach in a hospital bed. "It's been a scary 72 hours but he is doing well and recovering!!"
Earlier this year, Tori revealed that Zach "almost died" from the incident during a February episode of their "Raising Heights" podcast. "I get woken up that morning at 2 a.m., 4 a.m. and this nurse goes, 'Your husband's getting moved to ICU.' I fled in a panic to [the] ICU," she recalled. "And when I got to you — Zach was there yelling my name and so I'm like, 'Oh, my gosh, he's dying, like, this is it. We need help right now.' … I was just preparing myself for the worst because I had no idea what was going on."
Zach explained that he had a shunt in his head since he was a child and went to the hospital after experiencing severe headaches. "I really feel like with spinal stuff, fluids, shunts and of those issues, the brain, headache, the idea of a migraine … it's hard to pinpoint sometimes," he stated. "We're [coming] up on a year on that and I haven't had a migraine since then."
'Get him the help he needs,' says Stephen A. Smith as First Take analyst makes bold prediction on LeBron James' future | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
STEPHEN A. Smith thinks LeBron James' success in Los Angeles is over.
LeBron just finished his sixth season with the Lakers, and four years removed from his last NBA Finals win, Stephen A. thinks he isn't winning another in Los Angeles.

The Lakers fell to the Nuggets 4-1 in the opening round of the playoffs after winning in the Play-In Tournament.
Los Angeles finished 47-35, a weaker finish in the LeBron era, and Stephen A. doesn't think it is going to get any better.
"I believe if he wants to win he's going to have to go somewhere else," Stephen A. said.
"They're limited in what assets they can acquire in order to get the help he needs when i take into account the balance of power in the Western Conference."
Stephen A. explained that he doesn't think that LeBron can't win another title in his career, but that the Lakers won't help him get there.
"It's not a knock against LeBron in terms of his ability," Stephen A. said.
James had a great run during the opening round of the playoffs, scoring more than 25 points in every game.
He averaged 27.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 8.8 assists in this year's playoffs.
Clearly, James was doing his part, but the team around him struggled to find success.
"When you look at the rest of the parts that they have, it's not that they can't play , it's that they're inconsistent against models of consistency in the West," Stephen A. said.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
NBA fans agreed that the Lakers chances for the future were probably done, and gave suggestions on where LeBron could go next.
"He's not winning another ring period," one fan said.
"LeBron James and Kevin Durant need to take their talents to South Beach. End their careers with the Miami Heat," another fan said.
"Lebron is washed up he will not win a ring anymore," a third fan said.
"Join the nuggets on a vet minimum we'll take that," a fourth fan said.
There is a chance that LeBron ends up with a new team in the 2024/25 season, according to Brian Windhorst.
On ESPN's Get Up, Windhorst said he believes James will test free agency.
"I think LeBron intends to opt out of his contract and become a free agent for the first time since 2018," Windhorst said.
James has expressed a desire to play with his son Bronny in the NBA, and could go to whatever team signs or drafts him.

Mbappe seems destined to move to the Bernabeu in the summer when his contract expires.
But first he has the chance to finally win PSG the Champions League, with his side taking on Borussia Dortmund in the other semi-final.
But, if their sides do progress to the final, Rudiger is confident Real Madrid will be the victors in the final.
He sent a warning to Mbappe, saying: "If we face him in the final we'll beat him.
"And if he dribbles past me I'll smash him."
Rudiger, 31, kept Erling Haaland quiet in both legs as Real knocked Manchester City out of the quarter-finals on penalties.
And he is not afraid to dish out some harsh treatment to Mbappe.
That's despite the fact the French superstar could make a move to the Bernabeu this summer.

Mbappe is understood to have signed a five-year deal and will pick up £85.5million signing-on fee.
But he will take a pay cut as Real are set to pay him £827,000-a-week.

Footage of one of his strikes has since been shared on social media to the delight of supporters.
After being released down the right-hand side, Cozier-Duberry cut inside onto his left foot.
He then shimmied past a defender before firing the ball into the top corner.
Fans could not help but spot a resemblance to Bukayo Saka after watching the goal.
Cozier-Duberry, who was fast-tracked into first-team training in February, has previously been dubbed the "next Saka".
Reacting to the goal, one fan commented: "Saka Jr."
Another added: "Literally Saka Regen."
A third supporter also wrote: "It's like Saka all over again."

Meanwhile, one more said: "This guy plays like Saka."
Saka has become a key man for the Gunners since graduating from the academy.
Cozier-Duberry is still waiting for his first-team debut, though, but has been named on the bench in the Premier League and Champions League by Mikel Arteta.
The 18-year-old joined the Arsenal academy aged 14 in 2019 and is already an England youth international.

He caused a stir when he celebrated one of Arsenal's three first-half goals with a fist pump.
A video emerged on social media of a fan saying Groves had "went off" during his celebrations while on TalkSPORT commentary.
The fan told Groves: "You shouldn't be doing that Perry, that's a liberty.
He then added: "Come on Perry. You're live on the radio."
The fan then followed that up with "You should be ashamed of yourself, you're on the radio! You'll cause a riot here."
The anger filtered out to other home fans who told Groves to "Get out" and appealed to stewards to remove him from the ground.
The fan filming the video then caught the attention of a steward and said: "Excuse me, do you know that fella there? He shouldn't be doing that."
A steward did eventually approach Groves, who was still on air, and appealed for him to calm down.

Arsenal offer Jorginho new contract with the Italian midfielder expected to sign in huge boost for Mikel Arteta | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
ARSENAL have finally offered Jorginho fresh terms to keep him at the club.
The Gunners midfielder was signed from Chelsea in January 2023 for £12m on an 18-month deal with the option of a further year.

Arsenal offer Jorginho new contract with the Italian midfielder expected to sign in huge boost for Mikel ArtetaRexThomas Partey's future is still in doubt[/caption]
However, such is Mikel Arteta's admiration for the 32-year-old, the North Londoners have produced a new offer to secure his future at the Emirates.
Jorginho, who has been in talks over extending his time at Arsenal for months, is expected to sign on having loved his time at the club so far.
Arteta views Jorginho as a leader on and off the pitch, and has played a crucial part in the starting XI this term with teammate Thomas Partey out injured for five months.
Jorginho has started 23 times in the Premier League this campaign, and also played a pivotal role in their title charge last season.
Partey's future is less clear. The Ghanaian, 30 – who joined the club in October 2020 from Atletico Madrid for £45m – is entering the final 12 months of his contract and has been linked with a move away.
Arteta is considering his options given Partey's recent injury record at Arsenal and whether he could fetch a reasonable fee to add to his summer transfer kitty.
Partey has been linked with Serie A side Juventus and numerous clubs in the Saudi Pro League.
Meanwhile, it is understood Arsenal sporting director Edu and assistant Jason Ayto visited Saudi Arabia last week on a "meet-and-greet trip" with the country's football personnel.

Edu and his negotiators are already deep into their planning for this summer's transfer window, targeting a world class striker, a midfielder and extra cover at the back.
The club are expected to back Arteta with similar funds to last season, having landed the likes of Declan Rice, David Raya, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber for just over £200m.
Arsenal vs Bournemouth: Gunners look to extend Premier League lead after crucial derby win – stream, TV, team news | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
ARSENAL are just three victories away from lifting the Premier League title – unless Manchester City win four.
The Gunners arguably have had the toughest title run-in between themselves, Man City and Liverpool.
However, back-to-back derby triumphs over Chelsea and Tottenham saw Mikel Arteta's men stay on top of the pyramid going into the last month of the season.
And if they can beat an in-form Bournemouth side, they'll be one step closer to ending their 20-year Premier League trophy drought.
But even if Arsenal are victorious in their remaining three games, it still won't be enough if Pep Guardiola's men get a maximum of 12 points from 12.
When is Arsenal vs Bournemouth?
Arsenal's huge Premier League match against Bournemouth will take place on Saturday, May 4.
It is scheduled to get underway at 12:30pm BST.
Emirates Stadium is the allocated arena for his crucial match and it can host approximately 60,704 passionate fans.
The Gunners ran riot in the reverse fixture by thrashing the Cherries 4-0.
What TV channel is it on and can it be live streamed?
Arsenal vs Bournemouth will be broadcast LIVE on TNT Sport 1 in the UK
Coverage is expected to commence from 11am BST – one hour and 30 minutes before kick-off.
Alternatively, SunSport will have minute-by-minute action of the entire Premier League encounter.
What is the team news?
Mikel Arteta will be delighted that his side picked up no fresh injury concerns despite being put through a tough north London derby on Sunday.
However, it could possibly be too soon for Jurrien Timber who has been continuing his road to recovery with the U21's team.
Elsewhere, Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola is set to be without several key name for this huge match.
Illia Zabarnyi (muscle), Antoine Semenyo (knee), Luis Sinisterra (thigh), Tyler Adams (back), Marcus Tavernier (muscle), Chris Mempham (muscle), Ryan Fredericks (calf) and Philip Billing (muscle) are all expected to miss the trip to the Emirates.

Bayern Munich 2 Real Madrid 2: Harry Kane scores penalty in thrilling draw as England pal Jude Bellingham is subbed off | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
HARRY KANE won the first of his two battles with Jude Bellingham.
But whether the England captain will get to Wembley remains to be seen.

Bayern Munich 2 Real Madrid 2: Harry Kane scores penalty in thrilling draw as England pal Jude Bellingham is subbed offAFPBut a brace from Vinicius Jr meant the Spanish side will go into the second leg on level terms[/caption]
When he was unveiled as a Bayern player here at the Allianz Stadium back in August, Kane said the plan was to return to London on June 1 and win the Champions League.
Despite his team's spectacular title collapse in the Bundesliga, Kane still has a chance of winning the first trophy of his career.
Yet he needs to deliver another fine performance in Madrid next Wednesday and hope – and this is the problem – that his defence does not let him down.
Kane won the first of his two battles against Bellingham in an intriguing Champions League semi-final.
Outstanding throughout, Kane put his team ahead in the tie from the penalty spot for his 43rd goal in 43 games for Bayern.
His strike completed a huge turnaround at the start of the second half as it came just four minutes after Leroy Sane, with his first goal since October, cancelled out a first half strike from Real's Vinicius Junior.
But with seven minutes left, Vinicius got his second of the game from the penalty spot after Bayern defender Min-jae Kim fouled Rodrygo
While Kane was impressive, particularly with his build-up play, Bellingham did not enjoy the best of nights.

He put in a shift but playing extremely high up the pitch, at times as a false nine, he did not see much of the ball.
He even appeared to try and say something to Kane just before he took the 54th minute spot kick but the youngster was told to go away by French referee Clement Turpin.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
With 15 minutes left, he was replaced by Luka Modric
In his three years at Dortmund, Bellingham faced Bayern eight times and was not on the winning team for any of them and failed to score a goal.
Maybe that run will end next Wednesday and he will need to cause Bayern's defence, which can be rocky at times, a bit more discomfort than last night.
But their trump card is the star striker Kane.
He has now been directly involved in 11 goals in the Champions League this season – eight goals, three assists – and it is the most ever by an English player in a single campaign in the competition.
Apart from his outstanding goals return for Bayern, Kane has also chipped in handsomely with assists, 13 in total, although no14 should have arrived after 40 seconds.

Sane was put clean through by a clever Kane pass but the former Manchester City winger hammered a shot straight at Andriy Lunin when he needed to be a bit more composed.
Kane then attempted one of the most outrageous goals of this Champions League season.
After Bellingham was caught in possession – and having spotted Lunin off his line – Kane tried his luck from just inside the half but there was too much pace on the shot and it sailed over the bar.
Bayern started off impressively and were threatening to overwhelm the Spaniards.
Ancelotti stood on the edge of his technical area, hands in pockets, shaking his head in disbelief.
Yet just when they were in serious danger, Toni Kroos proved to be a calming and decisive presence for Real.

Bayern Munich 2 Real Madrid 2: Harry Kane scores penalty in thrilling draw as England pal Jude Bellingham is subbed offKane's influence was felt all over the pitch
In February, Kroos announced he was ending his international retirement to feature at Euro 2024 and you can see why German boss Julian Naglesmann was feeling particularly pleased with himself after using his powers of persuasion.
After overcoming that early spell of Bayern pressure, Kroos gave a reminder as to why, at the age of 34, he remains such a class act.
He spotted a huge gap in Bayern's defence because Kim had pushed up too high to keep close to Vinicius.
Kim was clearly terrified of his opponent's speed. Kroos sensed that, played a ball behind the South Korean who could not keep up with Real's lightning-quick No 7 while Eric Dier could not get across.
The Brazilian international struck a first-time shot from around the penalty spot past the exposed Manuel Neuer and while that 24th minute goal may have not silenced Bayern's noisy ultras, it knocked the stuffing out of their team.
While Kroos forced a fine-one-handed save from Neuer shortly into the second half, Bayern then hit Real with a proper one-two.
Sane collected a pass from Conrad Laimer, carried the ball from the right into the area, cut inside Ferland Mendy and then dispatched an unstoppable shot past Lunin at his near-post.
