Sneaky meetup?
Kendall Jenner and Harry Styles both dined at Nobu Malibu on Sunday, and while it appeared to be a chance run-in, it could have also been a very carefully orchestrated reunion.
The British singer was with James Corden and his wife Julia, while the supermodel was with a male pal. The pair dated and broke up years ago, but insiders say Kenny never got over the former boybander.
A source tells X17:
"Harry was always the one that got away for Kendall. She's dated a bunch of people since, but she always tells friends she would get back with Harry in a heartbeat if the opportunity arose. They couldn't make their relationship work due to their schedules, but there was never any bad blood between them."
We won't be surprised if they give their romance another shot!

This is the most exciting news ever!
Meghan Markle is pregnant and expecting her first child with Prince Harry, Kensington Palace confirmed today.
"Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019," the statement read.
“Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public,†they added.
The pair, who tied the knot in May, are currently on their first tour in Australia.
Baby speculation began last Friday, when the Suits star attended Princess Eugenie's wedding and covered up her figure in a large coat.
We thought we spotted a bump the last time we saw her on October 5th!

It was over before it began! Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson's fast romance -- and more importantly, their engagement -- is OVER!
The couple got engaged in June after dating for only a couple of weeks and now, after four months of being engaged, the pair have realized it all happened too fast. A source tells Us Weekly: "They realized it happened too quick and too early. The wedding is off, but they’re working things out. They’re not officially done yet."
Thing seemed to take a turn when Ariana's ex Mac Miller died of an overdose on Sept. 7. Grande pulled out of several performance commitments immediately thereafter -- including a gig on Saturday Night Live where Pete pulls a paycheck. Last month, Ariana's rep announced the singer was taking some time off: "Given the events of the past couple of years, Ariana is going to take some much needed time to heal and mend. She will be staying close to home and using this period to spend time with her loved ones and work on new music without deadline. She thanks her fans for their understanding."
Wonder if Ariana's giving back the $100K diamond engagement ring she got from Pete (or did she pay for it to begin with?)! And that new multi-million dollar penthouse is gonna get lonely! Poor Ariana!!!

Okay at first I thought everyone calling Kanye crazy was a little weird -- he's just a rapper who's not super educated and is trying to sound smart when he talks to our also not-so-smart President Donald Trump and he just really cares about Chicago and the inner-city and "his people" and he's blinded by MAGA and doesn't realize he's talking to the wrong guy about his concerns ...
But now I'm starting to wonder if Kanye West isn't heading south a little bit. No, not just south like to Africa -- Uganda, to be specific -- but like mentally. He took to Twitter's Periscope yesterday from his luxury rental in the central African nation where he brought alone wife Kim Kardashian to work on finishing his new album. So in this ten-minute long video -- people call it a "rant," I think that's akin to calling left-wing protesters an "angry mob" -- Kanye talks about "mind control" and how Twitter removing some of his posts is like The Man trying to control your thoughts.
Ye says he talked to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey about removing "likes" from Tweets; he said, "When people try to influence you on social media and try to tell you what to do. Or when you post something positive on Instagram and it gets taken down because it's not part of a bigger agenda, that's like mind control. That's the echo chamber. That's trying to control you based on trying to incentivize you based on you getting enough likes and that's the poison that's happening with social media." He went on to tell viewers he has a 133 IQ, which he claims is "Mensa-level." He says when people try to tell him what to do, it's like people trying to "control his brain" and compares it to a woman having control over her own body, if someone tries to physically touch her, she decides what's allowed and what's not. He says: "We got people holding other people down; they want you all to be like mind control ... like Ayn Rand mind control."
He goes on to complain about Sony not selling back to him the rights to his music for $8 or 9 million. He said, "I got the money. I’m not gonna say the S word. I’m not Prince; I don’t need to write it on my face."
Some more gems ...
"I will positive energy into the universe -- We will say what we feel, not what we're programmed to think. We will say what we feel; we will do what we feel. We will do what we feel. We will do what we feel. We will say what we feel. We will say. I did that as a mantra."
"You all already saw [social media] is a lie. Social media told you Hillary's going to win and she didn't win. Social media told you that people didn't like me, but everybody loves me. Everybody loves Ye."
"Un-program your minds, open up your heart, let the spirit guide you, let you conscious be free. We free; we free, bro." "The music is the best on the planet; I am the best living recording artist -- we, rather -- the spirit of Fela [Kuti], the spirit of [Bob] Marley, the spirit of [Tu]Pac [Shakur] flows through me."
"We work from our heart and our spirit, we're not corny." "I got rid of my laptop. I have references there that I love, but I don't need those references -- the spirit will give me new references."
"If I let human beings tell me what to do, then I can't be a vessel to you."
Dude is distraught. He and Bieber should get together for some therapy. Perhaps Kanye's bipolar and perhaps he's medicated (he is) ... but his doctors could probably do a better job of getting him evened out. Poor Kim's got a piece of work on her hands.

Whew! Right when we were getting worried Justin Bieber was breaking down, he found an outlet to relieve his stress ... skateboarding!
The scruffy sk8er boi took to the streets of a residential neighborhood in West Hollywood where he was looking for a friend's house. Funny thing was, his Apple Map wasn't working or something because he had to enlist the help of the paparazzi and his security detail to found the house :) Watch ...
Meanwhile, Hailey Baldwin needed some time away from her man after all the drama following news his ex Selena Gomez was hospitalized for mental issues. We spotted Hailey at Pilates class, keeping her model-body in ship shape. But could the stress be getting to her, too? If your hubby was down in the dumps over his ex-girlfriend's mental health issues and maybe you were even thinking your marriage could have pushed the ex over-the-edge, would you not be feeling a bit funky? Poor Hailey! Tough way to start out a marriage ...

Ben's back on active duty with the kids! Affleck picked up daughter Seraphina and son Samuel from school on Friday -- which is a big deal because that means ex-wife Jennifer Garner has cleared him to be with the kids. It means she feels comfortable enough in Ben's sobriety that he can parent effectively and that he's fine being alone with the kids.
Jen has put a lot of demands on Ben following his recent stint in rehab -- requiring him to stay in out-patient treatment and even forcing him to dump his much-younger Playboy model girlfriend Shauna Sexton, 22, in order to help keep him on the straight and narrow.
Meanwhile, Jen's looking happy and healthy as reports claim the actress is dating someone new. She's not sitting around waiting for Ben to clean up his act -- she's DONE with him. We caught up with Garner after a parent session at the kids' school on Friday as she had an animated conversation with a friend ...
Happy half-birthday, baby True! Khloe Kardashian shared the cutest pic of a "cousin cupcake" party she threw for her daughter's six-month birthday with Saint, Stormi, Chicago, and Dream. She captioned it "Cousin Cupcake Party!!! Keeping Up With The Kousins"
Kim Kardashian posted her own tribute -- a photo of daughter North playing with little True, showing her how an activity cube works. She captioned it "Cousin Love."
It's been six months since Tristan was caught cheating on Khloe, days before the birth of their daughter and while Thompson has "been trying," according to the source, Khloe posted some cryptic messages on social media recently, hinting that there may be trouble. Sources say Khloe has put her plans to move back to Cleveland with baby True on hold ...

Baby on board!
A very pregnant Jessica Simpson held on to her growing baby bump as she made her way through LAX. She looks like she's a good eight months along!
Jess and hubby Eric Johnson already have daughter Maxwell, 6, and son Ace, 5 and baby #3 seems to have happened almost by immaculate conception! Simpson recently told a reporter some personal details about her sex life with Eric!:
"We definitely always love to practice. We actually weren't practicing very much that month so I don't understand. We try [to figure it out]. This might be a miracle baby."
The couple were reportedly "surprised by overjoyed" by news of their third pregnancy. And if this one's as cute as the others, this group's up for Cutest Family Of The Year!
