Now the couple are expecting baby number two, with the happy news being confirmed to Vogue.

Jennifer, 34, married Cooke – an art gallery director – in 2019 after dating for a year.

They tied the knot at the Belcourt of Newport mansion in Rhode Island. 

Back in 2022 after the birth of Cy, Jennifer opened up about how it felt to be a first time mum.

She told Vogue: “It felt like my whole life had started over.

“I just stared. I was just so in love. I also fell in love with all babies everywhere. Newborns are just so amazing.” 

The baby news comes a year after an insider told US Weekly the couple were thinking about expanding their brood.

They said: “They’re thinking about having another child.

‘At first they weren’t sure if they wanted another one because it’s so much work, but they’re obsessed with Cy and love showing off videos to their friends and family.

“They’ve started warming up to the possibility of a second.”

Before marrying Cooke, Jennifer was in a relationship with British actor Nicholas Hoult for four years after meeting on the set of X-Men: First Class in 2010.

Following their split, she dated filmmaker Darren Aronofsky from 2016 after they had met while filming the movie, Mother!

But a little over a year later the couple split up and she went on to meet husband Cooke the following year.

Jennifer won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Silver Linings Playbook in 2012.

She was just 22 at the time, making her the second youngest actress to ever win the accolade.

Her other notable film credits include American Hustle, Winter’s Bone and The Hunger Games franchise.

‘Ineffective’ Kamala Harris failed to show she’s different to Joe Biden despite high-profile interviews, says strategist

KAMALA Harris has so far failed to set out a vision different from Joe Biden’s, a Republican strategist has insisted, a move that could prove fatal for her chances of victory in November.

The vice president has been on a media blitz recently – ranging from an appearance on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast to being quizzed by journalists on 60 Minutes and Fox News.

But earlier this month, Harris raised eyebrows when she told The View panelists there was nothing she’d do differently from Joe Biden.

GOP strategist Matt Terrill, who served as chief of staff on Marco Rubio’s 2016 presidential campaign, said Harris has to articulate herself on shows – rather than make a fleeting appearance.

“I suspect Vice President Harris’ goal was to go into these interviews trying to provide clarity with respect to her plans on the economy, border security, and how’ll be different,” he told The U.S. Sun.

“I don’t think she’s doing an effective job.”

Terrill, the managing partner of the public affairs firm Firehouse Strategies, suggested that Harris’s lack of clarity on the key issues is one reason she’s underperforming among specific demographics.

Polls suggest Harris has ground to make up in support among Black voters compared to Joe Biden’s levels of support in 2020, and she’s struggling to win over Latinos compared to previous Democratic presidential candidates.

“Harris will have to answer core questions that voters have right now, and she’s not effectively doing it,” Terrill said.

The strategist argued that this election campaign provides a unique opportunity for voters to compare and contrast the records of the Trump and Biden-Harris administrations.

And he warned Harris could come unstuck if voters turn the election into a referendum on her.

Terrill acknowledged that convincing voters she’s different from Biden is a challenge. 

“When you’re the incumbent in office, you own the news of the day, particularly when you’re at a level such as the Vice President or president,” he said.

“When it comes to the economy, inflation, and border security, this is ultimately going to be a referendum on the Biden-Harris administration.

“If this really is a change election, Harris has to find a way to talk about how she will be different – particularly as it relates to inflation and border security. 

“Those are two core issues that are really driving this race.”

Earlier this month, Gallup polling revealed that 52% rate the economy as extremely important to their presidential vote.

This is the highest level it has been in the last three presidential election cycles.

The economy and immigration are the two most important issues among Republican or GOP-leaning voters, according to Gallup.

Data shows that Trump has a lead over Harris in handling the economy and inflation, immigration, and foreign affairs.

Harris has tried to thread a fine needle, presenting herself as a change candidate without entirely distancing herself from the Biden administration’s record.

Fellow GOP strategist John Thomas spoke to The U.S. Sun ahead of Harris’ keynote Democratic National Convention speech and warned she may have to throw Biden under the bus at some point. 

Just days after appearing on The View, Harris told Fox News star Bret Baier her administration would be an independent one. 

“My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden’s presidency,” she told Baier.

“Like every new president that comes into office, I will bring my life experiences, my professional experiences, and fresh new ideas. I represent a new generation of leadership.”

The combative Fox showdown saw Baier probing Harris on issues such as the economy and migration.

Harris admitted that the US immigration system is broken and claimed the administration has been working to fix it.

She brushed off questions about Biden’s fitness for office by attacking Trump. 

“Joe Biden is not on the ballot. Donald Trump is,” she told Baier.

Harris will have to answer core questions that voters have right now, and she’s not effectively doing it.

Matt TerrillGOP strategist

Harris also claimed that she’s turning the page despite more than 60% of voters, on average, thinking the country is on the wrong path, according to Real Clear Politics polling. 

Critics accused Harris of not answering questions during the Fox sitdown, and Trump’s team branded the interview a trainwreck.

Trump’s team claimed Harris couldn’t respond to Baier’s questions because she had no answers.

But the Harris campaign was happy with the interview, with communications adviser Brian Fallon telling reporters afterward that she “was able to reach an audience that is probably been not exposed to the arguments she’s been making on the trail.”

“She also got to show her toughness in standing tall against a hostile interviewer,” Fallon added.

Early voting is underway across the country, and millions have cast their ballots. 

Those who have voted include former president Jimmy Carter, 100, who cast his ballot for Harris.

The campaign is entering its final stages, and Harris’ team has reportedly been discussing an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast. 

A decision hasn’t been made, and it has also been reported that Trump would be open to appearing on the show.

Harris has already appeared on Call Her Daddy and sat down with the radio star Charlamagne tha God. 

“This is a margin of error race,” Harris said on the show.

“It’s tight. I’m gonna win. I’m gonna win, but it’s tight.” 

The stakes could not be higher heading into the final weeks of the campaign, particularly in the battlegrounds where the race is on a knife-edge.

TIGHT RACE

Recent NBC News polling suggested the race nationally is a dead heat at 48-48.

Barack Obama has been on the campaign trail in a bid to help Harris boost support among Black voters.

Harris is underperforming Biden by 15 points among Black male voters, according to a New York Times poll.

Meanwhile, Trump has been trying to court Latino voters and appeared at a town hall in Miami, Florida.

Recent election cycles have seen the GOP make in-roads among Latino voters in the Sunshine State, particularly Cuban Americans.

A recent Telemundo poll suggested 61% of Cuban Americans in Florida would vote for Trump, while 28% would back Harris, per CiberCuba.

Trump is also gearing up to hold a rally at New York’s Madison Square Garden.

New York has not been won by a Republican presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan in 1984, but Trump has claimed he has a “real chance” of turning the state red.

Trump has seen his odds of victory surge in recent weeks, according to Polymarket.

The prediction market suggests he has a more than 60% chance of retaking the White House.

He is the clear favorite to retake six of the seven swing states, but Nevada is tighter.

Real Clear Politics analysis predicts that if the election were held tomorrow, Trump would win with 312 Electoral College votes.

You have the eyes of a hunter if you can spot the crocodile hiding in the swamp in under seven seconds

THIS mind-boggling optical illusion has puzzle fanatics stumped and struggling to find the answer – but do you have what it takes?

If you can spot the sneaky croc hiding in this funky brainteaser in under seven seconds, you may have 20/20 vision and a high IQ.

Everyone can see the swamp with aquatic plants but only those with a high IQ can solve the taxing illusion and find the crocodile.

It may look like a simple nature scene – a body of deep blue water surrounded by trees and odd branches.

But the busy scene makes it near impossible to distinguish where the reptile is lurking inside the image.

Are you able to work out where the croc lies in the image?

It might seem a bit daunting at first, but the key is to carefully examine each section of the scene.

Be quick, the clock is ticking! Scroll down to reveal the answer if you’re still stumped.

Meanwhile, why not try some other optical illusions while you scroll?

Test your brain power and solve the questions in this test to reveal if you have a high IQ.

This picture will surely leave you baffled – and you might scratch your head trying to find the correct solution.

Although it may seem like an ordinary image, this is no easy feat, and the average person gives up after a minute.

How can optical illusions and brainteasers help me?

Engaging in activities like solving optical illusions and brainteasers can have many cognitive benefits as it can stimulate various brain regions.

Some benefits include:

  • Cognitive stimulation: Engaging in these activities challenges the brain, promoting mental agility and flexibility.
  • Problem-solving skills: Regular practice enhances analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities.
  • Memory improvement: These challenges often require memory recall and can contribute to better memory function.
  • Creativity: They encourage thinking outside the box, fostering creativity and innovative thought processes.
  • Focus and attention: Working on optical illusions and brainteasers requires concentration, contributing to improved focus.
  • Stress relief: The enjoyable nature of these puzzles can act as a form of relaxation and stress relief.

If you look thoroughly, you’ll spot a crocodile hiding behind the branches at the centre-right of the picture.

But don’t panic if you didn’t spot it – scroll down below to find the solution.

Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.

Escape London says puzzles can also give your mind a great workout and may “boost your brain’s activity” which “reduces the risk of dementia.”

And according to ZenBusiness: “These visual puzzles can give you a good mental workout that can, in turn, help you think more efficiently and solve problems more easily.”

Secret Netflix ‘request’ trick lets you ask for three movies or shows to be added – but you won’t find it in the app

IS Netflix missing your favourite TV show or movie? Just ask for it.

The telly streaming giant has a little-known form that lets you request exactly three titles.

Screenshot
Fill in this form on the Netflix website and keep your fingers crossed

So if you want Netflix to add a specific season of a show or that long-forgotten movie, you can speak to the team behind the app.

The feature is called Request TV Shows or Movies, and it’s on a website rather than in the app.

You can find it here, and it only takes a few seconds to fill in.

Then Netflix will consider your request and decide if it wants to host the content that you’re craving.

You won’t receive a reply, but hopefully you’ll see your TV show or movie turn up in the near future.

Netflix says: “If you’ve already submitted a request, you can sit back and relax – we’ve received your feedback.

“We can’t respond to individual requests, but you can keep up on new titles coming to Netflix by following us on social media and signing up for our ‘Now on Netflix’ emails.”

The bad news is that there’s no guarantee that your request will be fulfilled.

Streaming libraries can be very complicated: for instance, another app might have exclusive rights to a specific show or movie.

Netflix explains: “Netflix licenses TV shows and movies from studios around the world.

“Though we strive to keep the titles you want to watch, some titles do leave Netflix because of licensing agreements.”

And if you’re trying to get an Apple or Amazon original series on Netflix, that’s unlikely to be fulfilled either.

You’re probably going to have better luck asking for something back that was previously on Netflix – or something very old that might be cheaply acquired.

VANISHING ACT

Another important Netflix habit is making sure you watch TV shows and movies before they leave.

Netflix / The Sun

Once it’s gone, there’s no guarantee that it will ever come back.

Thankfully it’s very easy to find content on Netflix that’s about to vanish.

Content that is set to disappear will show a bright red “leaving soon” banner.

Go into Netflix and search for “leaving soon” to find plenty of content badged up this way.

NETFLIX'S SECRET CLUB

Did you know that Netflix also has a secret club for special viewers?

Yes, really – it’s called the Netflix Preview Club.

It’s a free upgrade to your membership that gives you early access to upcoming content.

The catch is that it’s invite-only, and the process to bagging one of the prized emails is very mysterious.

You’ll be pre-selected based on two criteria:

  • Your viewing behaviour
  • How long you’ve been a Netflix member

And that’s all we really know for sure.

Once you’re in, you’ll get to see content before it’s released to the general public.

The idea is that with the feedback you provide, content creators can go away and make improvements before setting them live on Netflix proper.

“Each screening involves watching a movie or an episode of a TV show, followed by a 10 to 20-minute survey,” Netflix explains.

“Depending on the TV show or movie runtime, it could take anywhere from 40 minutes to about three and a half hours.”

Netflix says that you might notice:

  • Unfinished sound or visual effects
  • Green screens or stunt cables
  • No music in some scenes
  • Missing subtitles

If you receive an email to join, it will only come from one of the following two addresses:

  • noreply@netflixpreviewclub.com
  • noreply@members.netflix.com

If a Netflix invitation in your inbox doesn’t come from those email addresses then you’re being scammed.

You might also see a “Last day to watch on Netflix” on the Details page of a TV show or movie – as well as at the top of the screen for a few seconds when it starts playing.

That’ll give you a heads-up that there’s a specific date that you need to have viewed it by.

Huge 80s pop star, 65, looks unrecognisable on make-up free trip to shops – can you guess who?

AN iconic 80s pop star looked unrecognisable during a recent shopping trip – but can you guess who it is?

If you know your 80s music, you’re bound to have heard her band thousands of times on the radio.

The four-piece had two number one singles, five studio albums and became one of the most successful pop rock groups of the decade.

Indeed, The Bangles were also known for their big 80s hairstyles and rock chic ensembles on stage but now founding member Susanna Hoffs embraces an entirely different aesthetic.

Now 65, Susanna looks fresh-faced and youthful without the heavy eyeliner and backcombed hair she embraced in the bands’ heyday.

The star was pictured beaming during a shopping trip in Los Angeles, with many unsuspecting bystanders probably failing to realise they were in the presence of pop rock royalty.

Susanna wore an outfit much more suitable for a shopping trip than a gig, consisting of black joggers, a grey long-line T-shirt and a pink cardigan.

She completed the look with trainers and a cream crossbody bag, while her brown hair hung loosely around her shoulders as she wheeled her goods back to her car.

Susanna had formed The Bangles with sisters Vicki and Debbi Peterson before the trio were joined by Annette Zilinskas.

But after Annette left in 1983, the band landed a new bassist – Michael Steele – and the four piece were on the path to stardom.

During their career they released 25 singles and their biggest hits included Walk Like An Egyptian, Manic Monday and Eternal Flame.

However, the group disbanded in 1989 due to behind-the-scenes tensions.

Almost a decade later in 1998, The Bangles reunited and started recording new music and touring together once again.

Michael left again in 2005 before original bassist Annette rejoined the group in 2018 after performing with them at select live shows across the previous four years.

During the band’s heyday, Susanna was rumoured to have dated Back to the Future star Michael J Fox for a brief period of time.

In 1988 she met actor Donovan Leitch, and the couple dated for two years before parting ways in 1991.

She then married husband Jay Roach – a filmmaker – in 1993 and the couple have two sons.
