Gabby McCarthy with new girlfriend.

In the wake of her season 7 appearance on Love Island Australia, Gabby McCarthy has grown a substantial fanbase on social media with photos highlighting her natural voluptuousness and Gold Coast lifestyle. Now, the 22-year-old is attracting attention for a different reason: coupling up with fellow reality star Demi Sims.
Earlier this month, McCarthy posted a TikTok video of her and The Only Way Is Essex star cuddling up and exchanging pecks over a dimly lit meal. The caption on the video, which has nearly 40,000 likes, is “My overseas bae” — while text overlapping the new couple reads, “Life ever since I took ‘I don’t need no man’ literally.”

Even though he has built a successful career in comedy over the past decade with set after set mocking the transgender community, Dave Chappelle told NPR he doesn’t see it that way. And he used the interview to call out Republicans, claiming they’re the ones who hurt trans people, by twisting his jokes.
“I don’t feel like anything I do is malicious or even harmful,” Chappelle told NPR’s Michel Martin during a Newsmakers video podcast recorded in his hometown of Yellow Springs, Ohio, which was posted Wednesday.
