Rumor #3: C & W are in a fake relationship to help his image.

This is plausible.

However, we know Weston doesn’t need assistance with his image. He’sAmerica’s sweetheart, one of the sexiest men alive, and he possesses incredible charm. His fan club is global, and even though his ex has attempted to initiate smear campaigns, she hasn’t been successful. His popularity has only increased since his divorce became messy a year ago.

I’d be shocked if he faked this because he doesn’t need to. I suppose time will reveal whether this rumor is true or false. I’ll keep my eyes and ears open.

I sincerely hope Weston finally finds whatever it is he’s searching for.

Right now, I fear we may be asking ourselves the wrong questions about this relationship.

Many of us want to knowwhy her, but maybe we should be asking ourselves, Why not?

She’s one of us, a “normie,” just like Lexi Calloway. It gives me hope that perhaps love can transcend the boundaries of social class that keep us separated.

On a serious note about love: I used to believe that falling in love was hard, but now I’m convinced the real struggle lies in maintaining it. Love can be kind, but it can also be oh-so cruel. Most of us desire it, but very few manage to keep it for a lifetime.

Sometimes, I question love itself.

What is it exactly?

I believe love is about holding space for someone and accepting their messy parts. Love teaches us to be comfortable in silence because just their presence is enough.

It’s laughter, shared vulnerabilities and a deep connection that feels like it can move mountains. Love is that bubbling deep inside after a single glance. It’s unimaginable intimacy and compassion and understanding. It’s feeling safe in their arms. Sometimes, we find love when we’re not ready, when we’re weak, but that’s when we need it the most. To love and be loved takes courage. Which brings us back to the age-old question: Is it better to have loved and lost or to never have loved at all?

Weston deserves to be in a relationship that truly fulfills him. I wish him the very best.

What do you think? Are there any other rumors I haven’t addressed? Leave me a comment down below. I’ll be back next week with more juicy celebrity news and drama, served with a side of honest opinions.

Until then, sending my love,

LadyLux

A smile lingers.I’ve still got it.

I schedule the post to go live in the morning, then close my laptop. While I still feel anxious about it, I push the thoughts away. It’s not easy to rise again after losing my self-confidence, but I did it, even if my legs shook.

I move toward the bed and crawl under Weston’s arm. He wraps the blanket snuggly around us. My emotions begin to take over because I really didn’t know if I’d ever be able to post again.

“You inspired me,” I admit.

Weston holds me a little tighter. “So fucking proud of you,” he says, kissing my neck and my ear. “Can’t wait to read it in the morning.”

“Sneak out of here in about an hour, okay?”

“Okay. Good night,” he says.

“Night,” I tell him.

The silence lingers.

“Wes?”

“Mmhmm?”

“Is this what falling in love feels like?”

“Yes,” he whispers, kissing my neck as butterflies swarm inside of me. “Yes, it fucking is.”
