Start your engines racing fans because the F1 Miami Grand Prix is about to be a special date night for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
The Grammy winner and Kansas City Chiefs player are set to join Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes at the event this weekend, a source confirmed to Us Weekly.
Both Kelce, 34, and Patrick, 28, are investors in the Alpine F1 team, which has a long sporting link with Miami. Golf star Rory McIlroy and actor Ryan Reynolds are also investors, but it's unclear if they will be in attendance.
This weekend's events – held at Hard Rock Stadium – come in the middle of the NFL offseason and during a pause in Swift's ErasTour.
During their time off, Swift, 34, and Kelce have been able to spend quality time together, including a private getaway to the Bahamas and a trip to the Coachella Music Festival.
Most recently, the couple, traveled to Las Vegas to show their support for Patrick's charity event. While attending the 15 and the Mahomies Vegas Golf Classic on April 27, Kelce offered four tickets to one of Swift's upcoming Eras tour dates during the live auction.
After a fierce bidding war, the tickets ended up selling for $80,000 with proceeds benefiting Patrick's nonprofit.

Swift and Kelce started their love story last summer. Since then, the "Karma" singer has been to 13 Kansas City Chiefs games and developed a bond with Brittany, 28.
"Brittany is thrilled to be building a genuine friendship with Taylor," a source exclusively told Us in October 2023. "They've hung out a couple of times and have grown fairly close in a short period of time. Brittany thinks Taylor is so sweet and down to earth and they get along really great."
As for Kelce, he's taken on the role of MVP cheerleader for Swift as he attended several of her international Eras Tour dates shortly after winning the Super Bowl in February.
After the pair "deepened their bond" during "all the time they've spent together recently," a second insider told Us that resuming Swift's world tour in May will be bittersweet.
"It makes the prospect of her tour more challenging. She'll be sad," the source explained. "They support and respect [each other]. They have busy careers, so they understand those commitments, as difficult as it is."
"It's a little too soon to jump to any labels," Leviss' publicist, Juliette Harris, told Us Weekly in a statement on Tuesday, April 30, of the former reality star's new romance.
Harris confirmed that Leviss, 29, met Dunn "a little over a month ago." The twosome are "friends just getting to know each other," the publicist added, noting they are just "hanging out."
Leviss teased her new relationship earlier this month via social media, sharing a video on an ATV with Dunn and two other pals.

Fans were quick to pick up on Dunn's cameo in the video, with one replying in the comments section, "Okayyy!! Who is the hottie in the drivers seat

A second user teased, "This driver is definitely an upgrade, go girl!!"
Later that month, the Vanderpump Rules alum attended Stagecoach Music Festival in Indio, California, with a group of friends. Dunn, however, didn't appear to be part of Leviss' desert crew.
Dunn is a former sergeant in the United States Marine Corps, according to his LinkedIn profile. He is currently the CEO of Dunn Investment Group, which is headquartered in Spokane, Washington.
Leviss' choice to keep her budding romance with Dunn somewhat private comes after a very public breakup with Tom Sandoval in 2023.
Leviss and Sandoval, 40, began hooking up in late 2022 while Sandoval was dating and living with Ariana Madix. Us confirmed in March 2023 that Madix, 38, and Sandoval split after nine years together in the wake of the affair.
Sandoval and Leviss were grilled by their VPR costars during the season 10 reunion, which filmed that same month. Leviss subsequently checked herself into a mental health facility in April 2023 and in time cut off all communication with Sandoval.
Leviss chose not to return to VPR for season 11, and later took back her given name of "Rachel" as part of her personal refresh. Leviss declared that in 2024 she was focusing on herself and not worried about finding love again right away.
"I'm not dating for a year, and in doing that, I'm just focusing on myself and after this talk, focusing on my emotions that come up for me," Leviss said on a January episode of her "Rachel Goes Rogue" podcast. "Like what are my own needs that I need met? And not adding an additional person into the equation. So that it is just focused on me and other people as well my friends and family and the people that are in my inner circle that are safe friends."
The following month, Leviss took legal action against Madix and Sandoval, claiming they eavesdropped on her, invaded her privacy and administered revenge porn after her affair with Sandoval.
While Madix confirmed that she did learn about Sandoval's cheating through a video of him and Leviss "having phone sex," she denied she shared the footage with anyone but Leviss.
Both Sandoval and Madix have filed legal documents requesting the lawsuit be dismissed or amended. Madix also claimed in April court documents obtained by Us that Leviss' lawsuit was a way to "punish" and "blame" her for the "negative reaction" Leviss received for her part in the scandal.

Who Is Rob Marciano? 5 Things to Know About Fired ABC MeteorologistABC/Heidi Gutman
Rob Marciano's tenure with ABC News came to an end when the meteorologist was reportedly fired after a decade with the network.
According to an April 30 report from Puck News, the weatherman, who delivered forecasts for World News Tonight and Good Morning America's weekend edition throughout his tenure, was let go after "multiple staffers had made complaints about Marciano's behavior over the years."
At the time of publication, ABC News had no comment.
Marciano's exit came one year after Page Six reported in March 2023 that the news reporter had been "improper" with a colleague. At the time, a source told the outlet that GMA executive producer Simone Swink made the decision to bar Marciano from the Times Square set in NYC after he made people feel "uncomfortable."
"She's no-nonsense and is very serious," the insider said. "She's focused on the work and wants to keep [her staff] focused and happy. She's very protective of her team."
Despite stepping away from his GMA weekend gig, Marciano continued to contribute to ABC's news programs, including Worlds News Tonight. In September 2023, he celebrated his 10-year anniversary with the network.
"I couldn't be more pumped to continue this journey with all of you," Marciano wrote via Instagram at the time. "My thanks to the bosses who listened and made this work-life balance possible. I'm also grateful for an exciting new project with NatGeo that has me exploring some very very cool stuff… more to come!"
He added that the shift in programming would allow him to spend more time with his children: daughter Madelynn, 12, and son Mason, 6, whom he shares with ex-wife Eryn Marciano.
"I always dreamed of working for this network as a kid, and my children are equally psyched that I will now be home most weekends!" he said. "I'll continue doing what I'm doing, contributing across all shows and platforms Mon-Fri, while getting more quality time with my kiddos."

Zach Roloff in Urgent Care Ahead of Son's 2nd Birthday | D092HS4 | 2024-05-01 03:08:01
Zach Roloff in Urgent Care Ahead of Son's 2nd BirthdayTori and Zach Roloff.TLC
Zach and Tori Roloff's son Josiah's 2nd birthday got off to a rocky start.
"Today has been a doozy and I feel like it's times like these that God is telling us all to slow down," Tori began a lengthy Instagram Story message on Monday, April 29. "We ended up at urgent care to help get Zach some relief from sickness."
Though Tori, 31, didn't specify the type of illness Zach, 33, was dealing with, she did share that she suffered an injury of her own. "Our floors are being reinstalled and within 20 minutes of being home I threw my back out bad and can't move currently because I was trying to move furniture on my own," she explained.
The former TLC personality stated that she was feeling "guilt about tomorrow and how Josiah will (or if) he'll remember it," adding, "But I'm just praying he feels loved and celebrated." Tori also shouted out some friends who helped decorate their home for Josiah's big day. "I know he will feel a little more loves because of you three!!" she gushed.
Tori's life update was accompanied by a photo of presents for Josiah placed on their kitchen island, along with a truck-themed "Happy Birthday" sign and a No. 2 balloon. Earlier on Monday, Tori shared dozens of adorable Instagram Story photos of Josiah over the years, writing, "I can't believe this dude is going to be two tomorrow."
Tori later confirmed via Instagram that she and Zach were still under the weather for Josiah's birthday on Tuesday, April 30. "This birthday doesn't look the way I thought it would this year. Mom and dad are sick," she wrote in a sweet birthday tribute for their youngest child. "Mom threw out her back. And the house is torn apart to finish repairing the broken pipe we had. But Si guy we love you so much bigger than today and we will celebrate properly ASAP."

Zach and Tori tied the knot in 2015 and went on to welcome kids Jackson, 6, Lilah, 4, and Josiah in 2017, 2019 and 2022, respectively. After many years of sharing their family's lives on TLC's Little People, Big World, the couple and their kids appeared in their final episode of the reality series on April 23.
Zach's latest health scare comes one year after he underwent an emergency brain surgery in February 2023. "Zachary had an emergency shunt revision this morning," Tori shared via Instagram at the time, alongside photos of Zach in a hospital bed. "It's been a scary 72 hours but he is doing well and recovering!!"
Earlier this year, Tori revealed that Zach "almost died" from the incident during a February episode of their "Raising Heights" podcast. "I get woken up that morning at 2 a.m., 4 a.m. and this nurse goes, 'Your husband's getting moved to ICU.' I fled in a panic to [the] ICU," she recalled. "And when I got to you — Zach was there yelling my name and so I'm like, 'Oh, my gosh, he's dying, like, this is it. We need help right now.' … I was just preparing myself for the worst because I had no idea what was going on."
Zach explained that he had a shunt in his head since he was a child and went to the hospital after experiencing severe headaches. "I really feel like with spinal stuff, fluids, shunts and of those issues, the brain, headache, the idea of a migraine … it's hard to pinpoint sometimes," he stated. "We're [coming] up on a year on that and I haven't had a migraine since then."
'Get him the help he needs,' says Stephen A. Smith as First Take analyst makes bold prediction on LeBron James' future | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
STEPHEN A. Smith thinks LeBron James' success in Los Angeles is over.
LeBron just finished his sixth season with the Lakers, and four years removed from his last NBA Finals win, Stephen A. thinks he isn't winning another in Los Angeles.

'Get him the help he needs,' says Stephen A. Smith as First Take analyst makes bold prediction on LeBron James' futureGettyThe Lakers lost in the first round of the playoffs to the Nuggets 4-1[/caption]
The Lakers fell to the Nuggets 4-1 in the opening round of the playoffs after winning in the Play-In Tournament.
Los Angeles finished 47-35, a weaker finish in the LeBron era, and Stephen A. doesn't think it is going to get any better.
"I believe if he wants to win he's going to have to go somewhere else," Stephen A. said.
"They're limited in what assets they can acquire in order to get the help he needs when i take into account the balance of power in the Western Conference."
Stephen A. explained that he doesn't think that LeBron can't win another title in his career, but that the Lakers won't help him get there.
"It's not a knock against LeBron in terms of his ability," Stephen A. said.
James had a great run during the opening round of the playoffs, scoring more than 25 points in every game.
He averaged 27.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 8.8 assists in this year's playoffs.
Clearly, James was doing his part, but the team around him struggled to find success.
"When you look at the rest of the parts that they have, it's not that they can't play , it's that they're inconsistent against models of consistency in the West," Stephen A. said.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
NBA fans agreed that the Lakers chances for the future were probably done, and gave suggestions on where LeBron could go next.
"He's not winning another ring period," one fan said.
"LeBron James and Kevin Durant need to take their talents to South Beach. End their careers with the Miami Heat," another fan said.
"Lebron is washed up he will not win a ring anymore," a third fan said.
"Join the nuggets on a vet minimum we'll take that," a fourth fan said.
There is a chance that LeBron ends up with a new team in the 2024/25 season, according to Brian Windhorst.
On ESPN's Get Up, Windhorst said he believes James will test free agency.
"I think LeBron intends to opt out of his contract and become a free agent for the first time since 2018," Windhorst said.
James has expressed a desire to play with his son Bronny in the NBA, and could go to whatever team signs or drafts him.

There are strong suggestions that the veteran gaffer will leave the London Stadium at the end of the season.
And according to reports, he could find himself in the dugout at the Otkritie Arena next season.
That's according to The Daily Mail, who claim Spartak have inquired about his "availability" in recent weeks.
The Russian outfit are on the hunt for a new manager following their decision to relieve Guille Abascal of his duties earlier this month.
And it's claimed they have identified Moyes as a potential successor to the Spaniard.
Moyes, however, is said to be "reluctant to commit" to the Moscow club at this moment in time.
Moyes' contract with the Hammers is set to expire at the end of the season.
The former Manchester United manager is set to hold talks with club owners after the campaign draws to a close.

A decision over his future is expected to be made during the post-season chat.
Moyes has refused to be drawn on his future, saying after his troops' 2-2 draw with Liverpool last weekend: "I've always said we'll make a decision at the end of the season.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
"I want things to be right on both sides and I'm quite cool about the whole thing at the moment.
"The team are showing up and doing the job."
Moyes' sole focus at this moment in time is trying to pull off the Hammers' Mission Impossible to qualify for the Europa Conference League.
He said: "Our points total is a good total for West Ham, if you look at our totals over all the Premier League years.
"We'll keep banging at the door.
"We finish with a really tough game at Manchester City so the next two games we'll look to get something.
"Today keeps us in the hunt."
West Ham will be back in action on Sunday afternoon, travelling to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea.
Denver Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr. gifted dad a Tesla for Christmas and surprised mom with SUV in his rookie year | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
DENVER Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr. hasn't been afraid to give back to his parents who helped him reach the NBA.
Porter Jr. gifted cars to his mom and dad during his first two seasons in the NBA.

The Nuggets selected Porter Jr. with the No. 14 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
He signed a rookie contract with Denver that earned him about $2.5 million in 2018.
In that same year, Porter Jr. bought his mom, Lisa, a 2018 Ford Flex.
The NBA star posted an Instagram clip of himself gifting the SUV to the mother.
Both hugged each other as Lisa went inside the Ford SUV.
And Porter Jr.'s generosity didn't stop there.
In 2020, Porter Jr. surprised his dad, Michael Porter Sr., with a Tesla Model Y for Christmas.
A video showed the moment when Porter invited his dad outside through his garage.
The door opens and Porter Sr. sees the Tesla as he thinks it's his son's car.
But Porter Jr. says "Merry Christmas" to which the father realizes the electric SUV is for himself.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
Porter Sr. can be heard saying "Man, you didn't have to do this" to which his son answers back, "I didn't have to but I wanted to."
Less than a year later, Porter Jr. would receive a reward for his services from the Nuggets.
In September 2021, Denver signed Porter Jr. to a five-year, $172 million rookie extension.
They made the deal after the Missouri product averaged 19 points per game in the 2020 campaign.

In 2021, Porter Jr. only played in nine games and missed the rest of the season after undergoing back surgery.
Better days would be there for Porter in the 2022-23 season as he helped the Nuggets win their first NBA title in its history.
He also played in 81 games this season, posting 16.7 points per game along with an average of seven rebounds and 1.5 assists.
Porter Jr. averaged 22.8 points per game in Denver's first-round series win over the Los Angeles Lakers.
So far, Porter Jr. has made $79 million in career earnings.

Erik ten Hag is 'doing his best to become available' after woeful Man Utd performances, says ex-Premier League star | 486M7K6 | 2024-05-01 02:08:01
RAFAEL VAN DER VAART took a surprise shot at Erik ten Hag on Dutch television yesterday when he said the manager "Is doing his best to become available".
It came as former Real Madrid and Spurs star Van der Vaart discussed Ajax's managerial options with former Barcelona and Stoke winger Ibrahim Afellay.

Ajax have had a disastrous season and find themselves fifth in the Dutch league.
When discussing how to rectify the club's situation, Afellay said: "Ajax need to give the club back in the hands of trusted people.
"If they just wait a little longer, there is a big chance Erik ten Hag will become available."
Van der Vaart then cheekily added: "Well, Erik ten Hag himself is doing his best too to become available."
The comment comes as Ten Hag finds himself coming under increasing pressure at United.
His position has been insecure since Sir Jim Ratcliffe's investment in Manchester United, with Ratcliffe refusing to publicly back Ten Hag.

Should they be overhauled by the Geordies, United will be facing Europa Conference League qualification at best through the league.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
They could still secure a Europa League spot if they win the FA Cup, but even reaching the final of that competition was achieved in embarrassing fashion.
The club gave away a three goal lead to Championship Coventry in the semi-final and needed penalties to reach the final.
It comes as United are reportedly considering both England boss Gareth Southgate and former Chelsea boss Graham Potter should the club part ways with Ten Hag at the end of the season.

FORMER Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce has been welcomed to ESPN's Monday Night Football team, along with a request for a statue for the NFL icon.

It's no surprise that he's been much sought after by broadcasters.
And he's joining up with the popular ESPN show for the new season, alongside host Scott Van Pelt.
Marcus Spears and Ryan Clark are expected to retain their seats on the show.
However, there are reports that Robert Griffin III's role on MNF is in question.
Despite that, Griffin took to X, the site formerly known as Twitter, to welcome Kelce to ESPN.
He posted a picture of Kelce's infamous shirtless celebration, with beer can in hand, which was taken as he watched brother Travis and his Kansas City Chiefs take on the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round of the playoffs in January.
"Welcome to the Team Brother! @JasonKelce This should 100% be the next statue in Philly," Griffin wrote.
Jason will have impressed TV executives with his appearances alongside brother Travis on their New Heights podcast.
It has been reported that there was also interest from a number of other broadcasters, including NBC, CBS, and Amazon Prime Video.
There is no word whether occasional guest host Larry Fitzgerald will continue to make appearances on Monday Night Football.
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
It's been a brilliant week for ESPN, capturing Kelce so soon after landing Bill Belichick.
The legendary former New England Patriots head coach is going to make weekly appearances on The Pat McAfee Show on Mondays.
Fans reacted with delight to Belichick's appearance with McAfee during coverage of last week's NFL Draft.
Belichick will also be a frequent guest on Payton Manning's Manningcast during Monday Night Football.

Center Kelce was in tears when he announced he was retiring from football following the 2023 season.
"I am very proud knowing where I was once was and the legacy I have left behind," he said.
"Some people struggle to play in this city. I considered it a blessing to play in the most passionate sports town in America.
"Thank you Philadelphia, for letting me represent this city."
Kelce led the Eagles to their most famous-ever triumph in 2018.
He was part of the team that beat Belichick's Patriots in Minneapolis to win a first-ever Super Bowl for Philadelphia.
'Remains a mystery' – Fresh bid to crack missing persons case of Cork couple who were 'just nice people to be around' | KMW003E | 2024-05-01 00:08:01
COPS have launched a special appeal for information in a bid to crack one of Ireland's highest-profile missing persons cases.
Cork couple Conor, 62, and Sheila Dwyer, 61, disappeared 33 years ago tomorrow.
'Remains a mystery' – Fresh bid to crack missing persons case of Cork couple who were 'just nice people to be around' Conor and Sheila Dwyer from Fermoy were last seen on 30 April 1991Garda Press office
The pair were last seen near their home in Chapel Hill, Fermoy, Co Cork, on April 30 1991.
To mark the 33rd anniversary of the last time the couple were seen in public, gardai have issued a fresh appeal for help to finally solve the mystery.
Frustrated cops are also re-examining the case file and interviewing the original members of the investigation team, all of whom are now retired.
The couple were well-known in the area at the time of their disappearance and drove a distinctive white 1978/79 Toyota Cressida.
The car's registration was 5797ZT and has not been seen since the Dwyer's vanished.
Mrs Dwyer's sister spoke to the couple by phone the day after they were last seen but they have not been heard from since.
The Dwyer's disappearance featured on Crimecall on RTE One tonight.
Gardai are appealing to anyone with information on the Dwyers or their Toyota Cressida car to contact them.
Retired Chief Superintendent Kieran McGann, who worked on the case, admitted the disappearance "remains a mystery to the community".
But Mr McGann says he hopes the fresh appeal 33 years later will help bring "some closure to the family".
<!--End ofBrightcovePlayer-->
Retired Garda Sergeant Joe Watkins also told how officers involved in the case were still "baffled" by its unsolved status.
He said: "Even after all these years, it is a case that still bothers me because everyone involved wanted to get answers for the family involved.
"I always believed that the Toyota Cressida was the key… If we could have found the car, the car was the link."
Conor Dwyer's former colleague Peter Massey described Mr Dwyer as a "kind, gentle and honest man" and said the couple were "just nice people to be around".
Anyone with information is asked to contact Crimecall on 1800 40 50 60 or Fermoy Garda Station on 025 8210.
