Shop The Most Stylish The Frankie Shop Coats Here

Coat season is officially upon us, and I’ll be honest, finding the one can feel like an Olympic sport. Between the oversized tailoring, wool coats, funnel-necks, and scarf styles dominating my feed right now, it’s enough to make even a shopping editor confused. And yet, there’s one brand that never fails me and my stylish friends when it comes to outerwear that looks chic, feels elevated, and lasts far beyond a single winter: The Frankie Shop.

If you’ve spent any time on Instagram this season, you’ve likely seen the brand’s coats, even if you didn’t clock the label. That sharply tailored double-breasted coat, the fluid trench worn just-so, or that soft, brushed wool texture that looks expensive from a mile away? All Frankie Shop. Somehow, this New York-founded, French label has managed to create a formula that gets it just right. The cuts are considered, the palettes are refined, and the silhouettes strike that elusive balance between timeless and perfectly on-trend.

Every season, a new iteration takes hold. Last year, it was the now-iconic Gaia coat, a softly oversized double-breasted wool style that quickly achieved cult status. This year, the momentum hasn’t slowed—from the plush Matera to the sleek Mavis trench, each design feels like a lesson in effortless sophistication.

I’ve tried plenty of high-street and designer options over the years, but Frankie Shop coats always have that unmistakable quality: they make whatever you’re wearing underneath instantly feel more intentional.

Frankie Muniz Turned Down SNL at 14

The NASCAR driver said his mom then told him, “No, no, you don’t understand. Like, this is a really big deal,” and that for about a week and a half, he had “every executive, every producer, everybody in the history of Fox TV, Regency TV going, ‘What are you doing?'”

But he stood his ground.

“I was like, I don’t back out of obligation,” Muniz recalled. “They’ve been airing my commercial saying I’m going to be cohosting.”

Ultimately, Bynes ended up not cohosting the Kids’ Choice Awards with Muniz, although she did serve as a presenter. The actor actually cohosted the show with LL Cool J, David Arquette and Mandy Moore, with Rosie O’Donnell serving as the main host.

And although Muniz did eventually meet Bynes and even starred alongside her in the 2002 movie Big Fat Liar—he’s yet to host SNL.

Who Is Taylor Frankie Paul’s Ex-Husband? Meet Tate Paul – Hollywood Life

Taylor Frankie Paul’s life has been front and center ever since her rise on TikTok’s “MomTok” scene — and now she’s making history as the lead of The Bachelorette Season 22. Before her headline-making scandals and reality TV fame, Taylor was married to Tate Paul. The two spent nearly five years together and share kids, but their relationship unraveled after the infamous “soft swinging” drama. While Taylor has moved on to a new chapter, Tate remains a key figure in her story as her ex-husband and co-parent.

Learn more about Tate below.

Who Is Tate Paul?

Tate worked in sales and marketing in Utah and lived a relatively private life compared to his influencer ex-wife. While Taylor often shared glimpses of their marriage on social media, Tate mostly stayed out of the spotlight until their relationship became tabloid news following Taylor’s revelations about the “MomTok” community.

Why Did Taylor and Tate Split?

Taylor and Tate married in 2016 but separated in 2021 after nearly five years together. Their breakup came after Taylor revealed she and others in her social circle had engaged in “soft swinging.” “It changed everything between us,” Taylor admitted in an interview, later adding that the scandal put a strain on their marriage that they couldn’t recover from.

Do Taylor and Tate Have Kids Together?

Yes. Taylor and Tate share two children together, Indy and Ocean. She has often said her kids are her top priority despite the challenges of co-parenting after their split.

“At the end of the day, everything I do is for my kids,” Taylor explained in a TikTok video.

Where Is Tate Paul Now?

Since his divorce from Taylor, Tate has remarried and started a new family. While Taylor has leaned into the spotlight with The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and her upcoming role as the lead of The Bachelorette Season 22, Tate has kept his personal life private, focusing on his new wife Bailey, children, and life outside of the influencer world.

In August 2023, Tate celebrated a milestone, writing on Instagram, “Our cute baby girl is coming October! 🎊 We cannot wait to meet her! I love them so much! ❤️”

Taylor gave an update to Distractify in 2024, saying, “My ex is doing great as far as I know. I love him and his partner, [who is his] fiancée, I believe.”

Why Did Taylor Frankie Paul & Boyfriend Dakota Mortensen Break Up? – Hollywood Life

Taylor Frankie Paul is starting a new era in reality TV as the next face of The Bachelorette for its 22nd season. Coming in 2026, the Secret Wives of Mormon Wives star will look for love in a new man, and it all comes following her divorce from ex-husband Tate Paul and former boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. Since her relationship with Dakota recently ended, some fans are wondering what ultimately led to their split.

After season 1 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives ended on a cliffhanger, Taylor revealed at the start of season 2, “Right after Ever was born, Dakota and I were living together and in bliss with our new baby, and I was even considering engagement. And then, I learned that he was lying this entire time.”

In case you haven’t kept up with the Mormon Wives drama, we’re breaking it all down for you here.

Who Is Taylor Frankie Paul’s Ex-Husband?

Taylor was previously married to ex-husband Tate from 2016 until they split in 2022 following her #MomTok scandal when she revealed their agreement to engage in “soft swinging.”

What Does ‘Soft Swinging’ Mean?

The term “soft swinging” refers to consensual non-monogamous hookups with other people’s partners.

“For Tate and I, I think it’s best that we separate and divorce, and kind of find ourselves and find what makes us happy, start fresh,” Taylor previously said when she and Tate decided to divorce. “I think there’s been a lot of evil around us and we’ve participated in, obviously… And I think we need a fresh start and to kind of wake up. This was a good wake up call for us and our entire friend group.”

Who Is Taylor Frankie Paul’s Ex-Boyfriend?

After she and Tate divorced, Taylor started dating Dakota in 2022. They had an on-and-off relationship and ran into a major issue in 2023 following an argument. At the time, Taylor was arrested and booked for aggravated assault, two counts of domestic violence in the presence of a child, child abuse with injury and criminal mischief. In August of that year, she pleaded guilty to aggravated assault while the other charges were dismissed with prejudice. She reached a plea deal.

By 2025, Taylor and Dakota split for good after welcoming their son, Ever.

Why Did Taylor Frankie Paul & Dakota Break Up?

Taylor and Dakota broke up because he was unfaithful to her, which he admitted.

“I did lie,” Dakota confessed during an episode of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. “I was always doing it selfishly to protect myself. I just wish I was honest with her but it’s too late. … I would do anything to have my family, to be with Taylor. And yeah, unfortunately, I just hurt her really bad and I screwed up and these are also consequences of my own actions.”

Is Taylor Frankie Paul the Next Bachelorette Star?

Yes! Taylor and Disney confirmed that she was selected to lead season 22 of The Bachelorette, becoming the first non-Bachelor Nation franchise member to get the gig.

Taylor Frankie Paul Is the New Star of The Bachelorette

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Now this is the most dramatic announcement ever: Taylor Frankie Paul, star of Hulu’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, is the new leading lady for ABC’s The Bachelorette.

In the early morning hours of September 10 (on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast, no less), it was announced that The Bachelorette will return for season 22 in 2026 with the reality star—and mom of three—at the helm.

Per ABC’s press release, “After igniting ‘MomTok’ and going viral for pulling back the curtain on Salt Lake’s soft-swinging scene in Hulu’s Emmy-nominated series, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, the 31-year-old Utah native is ready to trade headline-making heartbreak for hometown dates as she begins making her mark on Bachelor Nation.”

There’s plenty of shocking firsts in this announcement, namely being that this is the first time a Bachelorette lead hasn’t come from a previous season of The Bachelor. (The Bachelor, on the other hand, has more experience with this—the last contestant who didn’t come from a previous season was Matt James in 2021.)

While no specific date has been announced (ABC is only saying the “all-new season will debut in 2026”), it would seem that Taylor Frankie Paul’s season of The Bachelorette will premiere in January, which is typically when The Bachelor airs. The Bachelorette took the summer off after Jenn Tran’s rather disastrous finale in 2024 (though Bachelor in Paradise did return this summer, somewhat in its place). There has also been a lot of shuffling behind-the-scenes with Scott Teti becoming executive producer and showrunner of the franchise, starting with Paradise this summer. Meanwhile, The Golden Bachelor also returns this month (Wednesday, September 24), so it kind of makes sense that The Bachelorette gets its turn back in the spotlight next.

The biggest surprise of all is Paul’s casting, of course. While single parents have been Bachelor leads and contestants before (Jason Mesnick had a son at the time, while Emily Maynard had a daughter), Paul has three children.

More so, as Glamour senior editor Stephanie McNeal wrote last year, “Paul and some of her gang of internet-famous Mormon wives and mothers were swingers. During the pandemic, [she and her fellow] Mormon, Utah-based moms who posted videos together dancing grew huge social followings as rumors ran wild that they all were all sleeping with each other. Then, in May 2022, Paul seemed to confirm this when she made a video announcing that she and her husband were splitting up because she violated the rules of the “soft swinging” arrangement the couple had with several others in their #MomTok friend group. Many of the women denied it, some blasted Paul, and the whole thing was rather juicy.”

In speaking with McNeal, Paul said, “I’ve had a lot of lessons learned. I had to go the hard way, and that was all by my choices that I made in life.”

7 The Frankie Shop Autumn Jackets Set to Define the Season

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Few brands capture modern cool as effortlessly as The Frankie Shop. Born in New York via French founder Gaëlle Drevet, this brand is now a permanent fixture on every editor’s autumn wish list, as the label has perfected the balance of precise tailoring with off-duty ease. Outerwear, in particular, has become its calling card—oversized silhouettes, clean lines and a certain nonchalant polish that make Frankie jackets instantly recognisable on the street-style circuits across the globe. This is outerwear that doesn’t play a supporting role; it is the outfit.

Over the past few seasons, Frankie Shop’s jackets have carved out cult status. The viral quilted jacket was the piece that catapulted the brand from insider favourite to mainstream, spotted everywhere from Instagram grids to airport lounges. Since then, the label’s trenches have gained similar momentum, winning over editors and influencers alike. Marilyn Nkunzi and Linda Tol, for example, are rarely seen without theirs once autumn hits, styling them with everything from wide-leg tailoring to slouchy denim. Naturally, this season’s line-up is already attracting the same kind of buzz; Caroline Lin is championing the brand’s red leather bomber, cementing it as the new piece to own this season, while Sarah Louise Blythe was just spotted in the brand’s elevated Indore trench.

This autumn, Frankie builds on its legacy with a line-up that leans into proportion play. Slouchy bombers bring just the right dose of attitude, quilted puffers are elevated beyond their utilitarian roots, and boxy blazers are cut to cocoon even your chunkiest knitwear. These are the effortless throw-ons that work for every occasion, and always strike the same chord: cool, confident, considered. Keep scrolling to shop the styles already winning over fashion insiders this season.

Frankie Muniz Teases ‘Pretty Shocking’ ‘Malcolm In The Middle’ Reboot

by jummy84
written by jummy84

While Frankie Muniz is remaining tight-lipped about the forthcoming Malcolm in the Middle reboot, the actor-turned NASCAR driver teased the four-episode revival will be “pretty shocking” to audiences.

In a recent appearance on the Lightweights Podcast with Joe Vulpis, Muniz previewed that fans of the aughts-era sitcom can expect “closure” for the eponymous genius teen, who spent seven seasons trying to come of age in a chaotic household full of loud and oft-dimwitted grown-ups and siblings.

 “I think people will be surprised, in a sense, where everybody is and the story. But it’s only four episodes,” Muniz said, adding that the initial idea for a revival — gestating for a decade along with co-star Bryan Cranston — was a two-hour film. “It’s hard to fit in 20 years of stuff in four 30-minute episodes, right? But I think people are going to be very happy with what they came up with.”

Muniz, who is now focused on being a full-time racer, noted the production worked around his NASCAR schedule, and the shoot had to insure him for a hefty price tag, as he had five races during filming.

“I had the best time of my entire life, I’m not exaggerating, filming this reboot, like I loved it so much, way more than I ever thought I could have,” he recalled. “We ended in May, and I haven’t talked to anybody since, you know what I mean? I’ve been gone. I’ve only been home, I think, like 12 days since the beginning of the year. So I’m just always crazy, and I think next week, I’m going to have time. I’m going to reach out [to the rest of the cast].”

The Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated actor also echoed previous sentiments about “how quickly [the cast] just jumped back into being a family.”

Winning seven Emmys, a Grammy and Peabody when it aired from 2000 to 2006, the influential single-cam comedy was a hit for Fox and admired by critics and audiences alike. The revival’s plot will feature a grown-up Malcolm, who has a wife and daughter, drawn into his parents’ chaos once more for Hal (Cranston) and Lois’s (Jane Kaczmarek) 40th wedding anniversary party.

Previously, Muniz reflected on wrapping production for the Disney+ limited reboot: “I’m still reeling. This experience was straight-up incredible—like stepping back into Malcolm’s wild world but with all the love and chaos cranked to 11. Reuniting with the cast, getting to know some new characters, laughing till it hurt, and making new memories on set felt like a dream I didn’t want to wake up from. It went by so fast, like a blur of perfect moments. I wish it could go on forever,” he wrote in part.

Frankie Muniz on Leaving Hollywood

While it’s been a minute since the Desperate Housewives star lived on Wisteria Lane, she’s since found a new address IRL.

“I had my whole adult life here,” Eva told Marie Claire in November 2024 about leaving Los Angeles. “But even before [the pandemic], it was changing. The vibe was different. And then Covid happened, and it pushed it over the edge. Whether it’s the homelessness or the taxes, not that I want to s–t on California—it just feels like this chapter in my life is done now.”

So for the past few years, the actress, her husband José Bastón and their son Santiago have split their time between Mexico and Spain.

“I’m privileged,” she continued. “I get to escape and go somewhere. Most Americans aren’t so lucky. They’re going to be stuck in this dystopian country, and my anxiety and sadness is for them.”

However, Eva noted her move wasn’t because of President Trump’s re-election.

“I didn’t leave because of the political environment,” the Flamin’ Hot director said on The View: Behind the Table podcast in November 2024. “I left because my work took me there since Land of Women—shooting six months in Catalonia, then four months in Mexico for Searching for Mexico, then back to Spain. Now I’ve been there for years. So I just don’t like that it’s politicized.”

Since moving, Eva has continued to stay busy, with recent projects including her roles in Only Murders in the Building and Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip.

Frankie Bridge feels like a ‘worthless waste of space’ as she grapples with depression

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Frankie Bridge is struggling with her mental health and has felt like “a worthless waste of space”.

Frankie Bridge has been grappling with depression for many years

The former Saturdays singer has always been candid about her battle with depression and anxiety, and over the weekend, she revealed she spent most of her time “psyching” herself up to get up and about and do some exercise to help relive the stress.

She penned on her Instagram Stories: “Sometimes this is what depression looks like.

“Sitting on the sofa all day in your pjs. Then being so fundamentally fed up of your own s***, you finally find the strength to make it to the gym.

“Quick shower and back to the sofa and pjs. Better than nothing.”

In another post of her on an exercise machine, she penned: “Spent a lot of the time psyching myself up and trying to quiet the noise in my head.

“Today it’s telling me I’m a worthless waste of space.”

Frankie shared a similar post in March.

She told her followers: “I have finally made it down to the gym. It has taken me the whole day to actually get here. ‘My depression is absolutely kicking my a*** and I am so over it.

“You know when you just feel like you do all the things you’re told to do and then it just always comes back.

“I’m just so bored of myself, it is so boring. You know, I just think everyone around me must just be so bored of it as well.

“But I am here, I’m gonna try and do as much as I can in the gym, because I know it will make me feel better. And so sitting around, eating s***, which is what I’ve been doing all day, only makes me feel worse.”

Frankie later shared with her fans how much better she felt after her workout.

She said: “So there is not much that a little bit of Paramore and a workout can’t fix.

“I definitely feel a lot better and if I hadn’t come in, I’d have just berated myself even more that I had the whole day that I was able to come to the gym and I just didn’t, and I just sat around and just wallowed in self pity.

“It is what it is, I should just be pleased that I’ve done it. It’s just a little reminder we have bad days. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better one.”

Last year, Frankie said she had developed a better understanding of her illness.

She said: “When you understand that it’s a medical thing, it makes you feel like you’re not just crazy.”

Frankie previously entered a specialist mental health hospital after understanding that she “couldn’t cope with everyday life”.

The brunette beauty – who is married to former soccer star Wayne Bridge – told BBC Radio 1: “I’d reached a point where I couldn’t cope with everyday life.

“I was constantly crying and telling my partner that I didn’t really want to be here anymore.”

Frankie is “proud” with how she copes with her mental health struggles.

She said: “I still suffer with depression and anxiety but I just know how to deal with it better now.”
