Parker Blaine – also known as Parker Noriega or Parker Blaine Noriega – has just revealed the craziest thing that an ex-boyfriend has done to her, saying she was cheated on by her ex-boyfriend Rook, MGK‘s drummer, while she was scattering her late brother’s ashes.

On Monday, January 22, 2024, YouTuber Mark Dohner released a new episode of his Livin’ Large Podcast featuring Blaine as the special guest. The episode was titled ‘Her Brother Passed Away From an Accidental Poisoning at 19.’

As many already know, Blaine is the sister of the late TikTok star Cooper Noriega. In the podcast, the host and guest discussed different topics, including Blaine’s family, her graduation, Cooper’s death, and so on.

Around the 22nd minute of the video, Dohner and Blaine converse about their respective dating lives and the use of dating apps like Raya and Tinder. Dohner mentions that he initially used Tinder but doesn’t use any dating apps anymore.

The podcast host then asks Blaine what the craziest thing an ex-boyfriend has done to her is. Blaine replied by saying that she has a lot of secrets to spill on that topic, but for now, she will only divulge one.

As she continued, she mentioned that one of her ex-boyfriends cheated on her while she was in Mexico, scattering her dead brother’s ashes in the ocean. She stated, “I have a lot of [explicit], but I’m going to keep some in the ball.”

“I could just say like one cheated when I was in Mexico, throwing my dead brother’s ashes in the ocean. That was cool, that was great, that was great,” she added. “How did you find out,” Dohner asked in disbelief.

Blaine then revealed that she found out about the cheating only a couple of months later. When asked about more details, she said that when she posted a picture with her now-former boyfriend for the first time, one girl immediately DMed her.

She said, “I found out like two months later. So [explicit]. He was a drummer boy, and I posted him one time, and this one time, I got, of course, a DM right after.” “Hey, girly!” she sarcastically mimicked the message sent by the unknown girl.

“And us girls know if a girl is dming you being like, ‘Hey girly!’ oh, you know some [explicit] is wrong,” she added. Blaine then mentioned that she opened the message, and the unknown girl mentioned that her then-boyfriend was with another girl a couple of months ago.

The wardrobe stylist’s words read, “So [I] immediately open it up like, oh he was with this girl like the other month or whatever. And I’m like, oh my God, oh my God and that was it.”

Afterward, Dohner asked if she confronted Rook about the cheating, which Blaine affirmed, saying, “Of course, I did.” She stated that upon confrontation, Rook initially lied about the cheating but ultimately admitted it.

“Of course, he lied and then of course he admitted it and was like. ‘She means nothing.’ Of course, the classic sob story,” she said, after which Dohner asked, “What drove him to do it?”

Blaine replied, “You know what? What drove him to do it? I don’t know that he can’t keep his [explicit] in his pants. I don’t know.” “That’s ridiculous; where did you find this guy?” Dohner asked immediately.

She didn’t answer the question but said, “Oh God! Don’t date a drummer.” The podcast host then asked if she knew who the girl was, to which Blaine mentioned that she had never met the girl in her life.

Dohner raised another question, asking his guest if the girl knew her then-boyfriend was already in a romantic relationship. “These girls don’t give a [explicit]. These girls out here in LA are savage, dude,” Blaine replied.

“It is a brutal ladder-climbing world out here. Everyone just thinks about themselves; they don’t care about their actions and the consequences of those actions, the impact it has on other people,” Dohner stated.

“They just want the best next thing or the next best thing. 100%,” Blaine added to Dohner’s statement. Dohner continued, “It’s truly insane like, I mean, I’ve been out here for 10 years, and dating has been tough.”

Blaine agreed with what Dohner said that dating is tough. As she went on, she mentioned that she couldn’t relate to it now as she is currently in a happy relationship with her boyfriend, but before that, it was hard, not the best, and “everyone is like so sus.”

The topic of conversation then moved on to different things. That said, while Blaine explicitly didn’t mention Rook was the guy who had cheated on her, Blaine’s hardcore fans, who are caught up with everything she does, immediately knew who she was talking about.

On the other hand, people in the comment section of the podcast episode were happy to learn that she had moved on from the cheating and is currently in a happy romantic relationship with her boyfriend. As of now, the identity of her new boyfriend remains unknown.

Eliza Butterworth Celebrates Daughter Lola’s 2nd Birthday with Sweet Tribute: ‘You Make Every Single Day Dazzling’

The Last Kingdom star shared an emotional post filled with photos and videos of her “birthday princess.”

Eliza Butterworth Celebrates Daughter Lola's 2nd Birthday

Eliza Butterworth is celebrating a major milestone — her baby girl is officially two years old.

The English actress, best known for her role as Lady Aelswith in the hit medieval drama The Last Kingdom (2015–2022) and the BBC miniseries The North Water, took to Instagram on April 22 to mark her daughter Lola Marie’s second birthday with a heartfelt and exuberant tribute.

“Happy 2nd Birthday to my beautiful, fabulous, hilarious, joyous and abundantly amazing baby girl!” Butterworth wrote. “Lola you are my everything!!! You make every single day dazzling and we are so proud of the incredible baby angel you are!”

The actress continued, “Seeing you turning 2 today is just blowing my mind and you are a dream come true!! We love you birthday princess!”

The Last Kingdom star’s post included a carousel of precious moments — from a sweet cake-cutting ceremony to candid snapshots and heartwarming videos of her daughter taken over the last few years. Fans got a glimpse of little Lola’s growing personality as she celebrated her special day.

Who Is Eliza Butterworth’s Partner?

While Butterworth, who holds dual British and American citizenship, is famously tight-lipped about her personal life, she does share glimpses of her longtime partner on social media. In May 2022, she posted a cozy photo of a man with his arms wrapped around her, captioning it: “My Man. You walked right out of my dreams”.

In other moments, she’s affectionately called him her “beautiful boo” and credited him for taking photos of her travels. The couple has also been spotted at family holidays, but the father’s name and details have remained private, as he stays largely out of the public eye.

A Star on the Rise

Before The Last Kingdom ended its five-season run in 2022, Butterworth grew up in Lincoln, England, and graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). Her career has since flourished with roles in the BBC Two miniseries The North Water, for which she received a National Film Award nomination, and the Sky Max series A Town Called Malice.

But if her Instagram is any indication, her proudest role is clearly “Mama” to Lola.

Happy 2nd Birthday to my beautiful, fabulous, hilarious, joyous and abundantly amazing baby girl! — Eliza Butterworth on Instagram

What’s Next for the Actress?

Though she opted not to join the Last Kingdom follow-up film Seven Kings Must Die, Butterworth has been busy in Tenerife filming A Town Called Malice, a Sky series about a family of criminals in the 1980s Costa del Sol. She’s set to play Carly Lord in the upcoming show.

For now, though, it’s all about cake, candles, and celebrating two years of “magical angel” Lola. As Butterworth put it last Mother’s Day, “Lola is my everything and my best friend”.

‘This Beauty Is Impossible to Forget’: Lyliana Wray Opens Up About Her Soulful Journey Through Nepal

Lyliana Wray Opens Up About Her Soulful Journey Through Nepal

Lyliana Wray is trading Hollywood for the Himalayas — and fans are loving every moment.

The Top Gun: Maverick actress, 21, is currently on a soulful getaway in Nepal, documenting her travels through the sacred streets of Kathmandu Valley. Over the past week, she’s been sharing glimpses of her journey on social media — from ancient stupas to holy riverbanks — all while keeping things refreshingly real.

‘Happy Girl’ at the Monkey Temple

Wray’s first post came on April 18, featuring a series of photos of herself exploring the Kathmandu Valley. In one standout shot, she’s seen smiling in front of Swayambhunath Stupa, the iconic Buddhist temple affectionately known as the “Monkey Temple.” Her caption was simple, joyful, and impossible not to smile at: “happy girl.”

A Deeper Reflection at Pashupatinath

Then, on April 22, Wray offered a more contemplative look at her travels. She posted photos from Pashupatinath Temple, one of the holiest Hindu shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple complex, with its ashrams and the flowing Bagmati River, clearly left a mark.

“This temple holds stories in silence, a kind of beauty that’s hard to name but impossible to forget,” she wrote.

One Commenter Tried to Bring Negativity. She Wasn’t Having It.

Of course, no celebrity travel post is complete without a few eye-rolls from the peanut gallery.

Under her Pashupatinath photos, one user commented: “Bruh why do you guys always feel the urge for spiritual awakening within the worst suburbs of India?”

Ouch.

But Wray — who played Amelia Benjamin opposite Tom Cruise in the 2022 blockbuster — didn’t fire back with anger. Instead, she responded with grace and a perspective that’s won over her followers.

“it’s not about being spiritual or religious for me… experiencing cultures outside of my own is something really special,” she replied. “i’m always trying to stay open and see the world from different perspectives :)”

Fans Are Praising Her Response

The exchange quickly went viral, with fans flooding her comments to applaud her maturity.

“Class act,” one wrote. “This is how you travel — with curiosity, not ego.”

Another added: “She didn’t have to respond, but she did, and she taught that person something.”

Who Is Lyliana Wray?

For those who don’t know, Wray first broke out as a child star in 2015’s Girl Missing, later appearing in Nickelodeon’s Are You Afraid of the Dark? revival and shows like Black-ish. But her biggest moment came when she landed the role of Amelia Benjamin in Top Gun: Maverick — the daughter of Jennifer Connelly’s character, Penny Benjamin.

Since then, she’s kept a relatively low profile, focusing on her craft and, apparently, her passport.

A Trip That’s About More Than Sightseeing

While many celebrities use international travel as a backdrop for bikini photos, Wray seems genuinely moved by the culture and history around her. Her visit to Nepal isn’t framed as a “spiritual awakening” or a search for meaning — just an honest attempt to see the world through someone else’s eyes.

And honestly? That’s a travel goal we can all get behind.

As she continues her journey through Nepal, fans will no doubt be watching — and learning right alongside her.

BLACKPINK Returns with ‘Deadline’ EP: Everything to Know About Their High-Octane Comeback Single ‘GO’

Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé end their three-year hiatus with a bold new mini-album and a high-budget visual for their latest hit single.

BLACKPINK Returns with 'Deadline' EP: Everything to Know About Their High-Octane Comeback Single 'GO'

The long wait for the “biggest girl group in the world” is finally over. On Friday, Feb. 27, 2026, BLACKPINK—consisting of members Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé—officially released their new EP, Deadline. This marks the quartet’s first collective body of work since their 2022 studio album Born Pink, effectively ending a three-and-a-half-year hiatus that saw the members conquer the world through individual solo ventures.

The lead single from the EP, titled “GO,” arrived alongside a blockbuster music video that features the group in a futuristic, high-stakes heist narrative. Known for their “black” and “pink” duality, the new single leans heavily into the “black” concept—featuring aggressive synth-pop production, sharp choreography, and the signature “BLACKPINK in your area” confidence. The Deadline EP also includes the fan-favorite pre-release track “JUMP,” alongside new songs “Me and My,” “Champion,” and the edgy “Fxxxboy.”

The release of Deadline follows an incredibly busy period for the group. Throughout 2025, they embarked on the massive Deadline World Tour, which broke several attendance records for female groups and concluded earlier this year with three sold-out “encore” shows in Hong Kong. Despite the rigorous tour schedule, each member continued to excel individually. Most recently, Rosé made history at the 2026 Grammys, where she was nominated for three awards and opened the show with a viral performance of her smash hit “APT.” alongside Bruno Mars.

While solo projects for Lisa’s LLOUD, Jennie’s OA, and Jisoo’s BLISSOO have dominated the headlines for the past year, Deadline proves that the group’s collective chemistry remains unmatched. The mini-album is a strategic “thank you” to BLINKs who have waited patiently for a group comeback. “GO” is already trending at #1 on YouTube and Spotify’s Global charts, fueled by its message of relentless ambition and moving forward.

As the members continue to balance their massive solo careers in music, television, and fashion, Deadline serves as a powerful reminder that BLACKPINK is an unstoppable force when they reunite. With more group activities rumored for late 2026, it seems the “Deadline” era is only just beginning.
