The Kick-Ass star, 28, and model Kate Harrison, 34, exchanged vows over Labor Day weekend.
The pair, who first began dating back in 2018, announced their engagement on January 1, 2025, when Moretz posted a New Year’s Day slideshow that included a photo of the newly engaged couple showing off matching diamond rings.
Ahead of the celebration, Moretz opened up to Vogue about how she and Harrison planned to personalize the festivities.
‘A big part of the wedding [is about] sharing things that Kate and I love with everyone that’s going to be there,’ she explained. ‘So there’s fishing, horseback riding and poker. Kate made a custom poker mat herself, so we’re going to kind of be leaning into it. Our second day is going to be line dancing and everything.’
Both brides turned to Louis Vuitton for their wedding-day ensembles, including their reception looks.

True to tradition, the pair didn’t get a sneak peek at each other’s dresses beforehand, even though they were in Paris at the same time for their fittings.
For their wedding, Moretz stunned in a blue dress inspired by her Old Hollywood vision.
‘I honestly don’t even know if words can put together how I feel,’ she admitted. ‘The birth of the color [blue] started when I went to the Academy Gala with LV, and I wore this blue leather dress. I remember immediately talking to [my stylist] Nell, and I was like, maybe we should think about doing this [color for my wedding].’
The actress said she never saw herself as a ‘white dress bride.’
‘It just feels like me,’ she said. ‘I knew I would do something non-traditional, and not wear white, and kind of have it feel different, and I think it really does.’
The couple, who have largely kept their romance out of the spotlight, celebrated their nuptials surrounded by family, friends, and plenty of personal touches.
After nearly seven years together, Moretz said what she cherishes most is the promise to keep choosing each other every day.
‘I think what I’m most looking forward to about getting married is just being together,’ she reflected. ‘Making this promise to each other in a new way, and exchanging these vows.’

The former child actress and the model were first romantically linked in December 2018, when they were spotted sharing a kiss after dinner at Nobu Malibu.
Three years later, The 5th Wave actress confirmed that she was ‘in a long-term relationship.’
Speaking to The i Paper in November 2022, she explained: ‘I like to keep my private life private. And I really enjoy that.’
The pair then made their romance Instagram official last year when Kate wished the Greta alum a ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’ and shared a sweet photo of the two.

Chloe went on to re-share the photo on her own Instagram Stories.
Over the years, the couple have enjoyed numerous trips together, often sharing snaps from their adventures on Instagram.
Although, the lovebirds have posted each other on their Instagram accounts, they mostly keep their relationship low-key.
Harrison is the daughter of actors Gregory Harrison and Randi Oaks.

Meanwhile, Moretz previously dated Brooklyn Beckham, Dylan O’Brien, Alex Roe, Cameron Fuller and Brazilian football player Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior.
In early November, she described herself as a ‘gay woman’ as she opened up about her political beliefs, stating: ‘I believe in the need for legal protections that protects the LGBTQ+ community as a gay woman.
‘We need protections in this country and to have access to the care we need and deserve.’
After her relationship with Brooklyn, 25, ended in 2018, The Equalizer actress told The Sunday Times that dating someone not in the industry is ‘nearly impossible’ as someone in the public eye.
We have just two matches leftin the fourth round and they’re set for Arthur Ashe this evening. Jannik Sinner will meet Alexander Bublik before Amanda Anisimova takes on Beatriz Haddad Maia. That will be all from me, with the blog returning tomorrow for quarter-final thrills. Cheers all for tuning in.
Muchova has three match points on her serve. Kostyuk’s backhand finds the corner to keep her alive, but Muchova takes the third opportunity, Kostyuk unable to keep the return in. Muchova sets up a challenging quarter final with Naomi Osaka.

Kostyuk will not go quietly. She gets herself two break points … and the first one is saved in spectacular fashion by Muchova – she reaches wide to fetch a forehand volley that clips the net cord and goes her way. Kostyuk nets and Muchova, finalist at the 2023 French Open, finds the safe haven that is deuce. She saves another break point and pulls off a difficult hold. Muchova leads 5-2 in the deciding set.
Muchova’s drop shot helps her to 40-15 and she dictates the next point brilliantly, a couple of backhand slices followed by the deep cross-court forehand. She leads 4-1 in the deciding set.
We’ve got a proper contest on Grandstand, with the 11th seed, Karolina Muchova, up against the 27th seed, Marta Kostyuk. Muchova took the first set 6-3, while Kostyuk was victorious in the second-set tie-break. Muchova has just landed a break in the third set and leads 3-1.

Over on Louis Armstrong, Lorenzo Musetti is 6-3, 6-0, 2-1 up against Jaume Munar, the 10th seed looking set for his first US Open quarter-final.
Gauff was unable to get to a single break point, with Osaka relentless across an hour and a bit.
Osaka speaks: “I’m a little sensitive and I don’t want to cry. I had so much fun out here. This is my favourite court in the world and it means so much to me to be back here.
“Honestly, I look up to her [Gauff] a lot. The way she conducts herself, I think it’s really special, to be such an amazing role model at such a young age is a gift and it’s a talent that she has and I have all the respect in the world for her.”
What a champion.
Naomi Osaka (23) beats Coco Gauff (3) 6-3, 6-2
Gauff, deeply frustrated, lets 40-15 slip to deuce. And she nets a forehand to provide Osaka match point. Another forehand goes wrong and it’s all over. Naomi Osaka has delivered a statement victory.

Gauff tries something new, rushing to the net but unable to get on the end of Osaka’s backhand. The third seed’s backhand to the corner is unable to clip the line – Osaka is 5-2 up in the second set and just a game away. We’ve had just an hour of play.
A horrible miscue from Gauff hands Osaka two chances to break – she needs just one as Gauff nets a backhand. Osaka is up 6-3, 4-2, staring at a first grand slam quarter-final since 2021.
Osaka is machine-like with the ball in her hand at the moment. She hasn’t lost a point on her first serve and has won 74% of points on her second serve, too. She leads 6-3, 3-2.
Lorenzo Musetti has taken the first set against Jaume Munar 6-3. Gauff holds to 15 and we’re 2-2 in the second set on Arthur Ashe.
Osaka stays immense on her serve. Gauff has won just four points when receiving. Osaka leads 6-3, 2-1.

Some excellent defence from Gauff sees her go 15-0 up and she gets away with a slightly off drop shot, Osaka netting with a backhand. She holds; Osaka leads 6-3, 1-1.
Stunning from Osaka, who goes 30-0 up after closing a wild rally with the most delicious of forehands to the corner. Gauff’s body language is all over the place, wondering what she has to do to even take a point of Osaka’s serve. Well how about that: a forehand return brushes the line and she has that elusive point. Another fine return makes it 40-30 but Gauff nets a forehand. Osaka is up 6-3, 1-0.
Osaka wins the first set against Gauff 6-3
Gauff is a mixed bag with her serve, an ace and double fault in there before Osaka bangs down another cross-court backhand winner. And another double fault gives Osaka the first set! Wowzers. Osaka has been close to immaculate, welcoming her opponent’s 16 unforced errors (Osaka has made five).
Osaka races to 40-0 and Gauff, perhaps out of frustration, just wallops a flat forehand to get on the board. But it’s another simple hold, with Osaka having lost just two points on her serve. Osaka is 5-3 up.
Gauff, from the forehand side, sends down a brilliant backhand winner.She holds and Osaka leads 4-3. Over on Louis Armstrong, 10th seed Lorenzo Musetti is underway against Jaume Munar and already up a break.

Gauff’s serve remains under the spotlight and she begins with a double fault, but it’s smoother from there as she goes 40-15 up. Osaka reels off a backhand winner and takes it to deuce, but Gauff is victorious at the net before Osaka goes long with a down-the-line forehand. Osaka leads 3-2.

Gauff races to a love hold, a couple of aces in there, too. Osaka leads 2-1 in the first set.
Well then, this is some start from Naomi Osaka. The 23rd seed is up and away with a 2-0 lead in the first set, Gauff beginning with a string of unforced errors.
Alexandrova suffered with her second serves, winning just 27% of her points on those. The action doesn’t stop, with Coco Gauff and Naomi Osaka making their way out on Arthur Ashe for today’s headline clash.
Iga Swiatek (2) beats Ekaterina Alexandrova (13) 6-3, 6-1
Swiatek heads to the net to sweep away a backhand and go 30-15 up. Alexandrova recovers though, attacking to give herself a chance of survival, launching the ball deep to give Swiatek some bother on the baseline. But the 2022 US Open champion prevails, a backhand winner sending her through to the quarters.

Swiatek has another chance to break, and Alexandrova’s fourth double fault of the match provides it. The second seed will serve for the match, up 6-3, 5-1.
Swiatek has little to worry about at the moment. She’s 6-3, 4-1 up against Alexandrova.
Felix Auger-Aliassime (25) beats Andrey Rublev (15) 7-5, 6-3, 6-4
Rublev holds and Auger-Aliassime is up again, serving to reach the last eight. He is up to the net to secure the first point, a statement move. A lightning ace follows and another first serve sets him up for a deep forehand winner. Three match points: he needs just one, a backhand down the line setting up a wonderful victory.

Auger-Aliassime is up 4-3 and serving in the third set. Rublev needs something to change – instead comes a complete miscue with the forehand, Auger-Aliassime going 30-0 up. An ace down the middle follows and the hold is straightforward. Auger-Aliassime leads 6-5, 6-3, 5-3.
Right, how much fight has Rublev got in him? He came from a set down to beat Auger-Aliassime in the 2024 Madrid Open final. He quickly holds to 15. Auger-Aliassime leads 7-5, 6-3, 3-2.
Swiatek holds to lead 5-3 before Alexandrova double-faults to set up deuce. Oh dear – another double fault hands Swiatek set point. The world No 2 is gifted it, with Alexandrova netting an attempted drop shot. Swiatek takes it 6-3.

It’s 3-3 in the first set between Swiatek and Alexandrova, with the latter serving. Swiatek sees an opportunity at 15-30, launching an electric backhand return on the second serve. And then Alexandrova has a nightmare at the net, setting up for a forehand smash before trying to drop the ball … except it doesn’t go over. Swiatek breaks and leads 4-3 in the first set.
Rublev fails to hold his serve to start the third set. Auger-Aliassime – up 7-5, 6-3, 1-0 – is so very close to his first grand-slam quarter-final since the 2022 Australian Open.

Auger-Aliassime is serving for the second set– and he does so with aplomb, resisting as Rublev launches some flat, fizzing forehands. Auger-Aliassime leads 7-5, 6-3 and Rublev is showing signs of combustion. The Canadian launched 15 winners in that set; Rublev managed four.
Over on Louis Armstrong, it’s 1-1 between Swiatek and Alexandrova, both failing to hold serve.
Rublev, I should remind you, has won seven of his eight meetings against Auger-Aliassime. The 25th seed holds his serve and is up 7-5, 5-2.
Rublev double-faults and we’re at deuce. Auger-Aliassime loves the second serve, stepping inside to wallop a cross-court forehand winner. Rublev, furious with himself, then sends a backhand wide. He smashes his racket into the ground. Auger-Aliassime has the break and leads 7-5, 4-2.
Iga Swiatek is getting ready for battle, up against Ekaterina Alexandrova, the 13th seed, who is yet to drop a set in the tournament. Swiatek leads 4-2 in the career head-to-head.
Auger-Aliassime’s has a chance to get to break point … but he messes up an overhead smash, sending it long. Rublev manages to hold, Auger-Aliassime up 7-5, 2-2.
YO COUSIN!
Auger-Aliassime’s forehand down the line has been joyous to watch. He powers his way to 15-30, but Rublev launches a recovery to hold. Auger-Aliassime leads 7-5, 1-1.
Rublev has a break point in the first game of the second set but Auger-Aliassime leaps at the net to volley and set up deuce. A second break point is saved too, and Auger-Aliassime’s defence comes to the fore in a 23-shot rally that goes his way. He manages to hold, extending his lead to 7-5, 1-0.
Alex de Minaur (8) beats Leandro Riedi 6-3, 6-2, 6-1
De Minaur prevails after an hour and a half, strolling into the last eight. It brings an end to a fine showing by Riedi, who advanced through qualifying to beat the 19th seed Francisco Cerundolo in the second round.

Auger-Aliassime sees an opportunity at 15-30, advancing to the net to sweep a forehand winner and set up two set points. He’s looked so powerful in the last 15 minutes … but he just loses his radar, two forehands going wrong to prompt deuce. A forehand down the line ends a lengthy rally to set up a third set point … and Auger-Aliassime is undone by a second serve that narrowly remains in bounds. But here comes a fourth chance … and it’s taken! Auger-Aliassime peppers the forehands from the backhand corner and is up to the net to take the first set 7-5. Rublev is not a happy chap as he leaves the court for a breather.
Auger-Aliassime is on the attack with his serve, two aces in the game setting him up for a 40-30 lead. A wide forehand from Rublev gives the Canadian a 6-5 lead in the first set.
Elsewhere, De Minaur has taken the second set against Riedi to lead 6-3, 6-2.
A love hold from Auger-Aliassime put him up 5-4 – he’s won 10 points in a row!
Auger-Aliassime is a break down but his serve is still in decent order as he holds. Rublev leads 4-3 in the first set but Auger-Aliassime has an opening at 0-30 after Rublev goes way wide with a backhand. Auger-Aliassime then thumps a forehand return on the second serve down the line to set up three break points. Rublev nets a backhand and that is a quickfire game from Auger-Aliassime, levelling up at 4-4 in the first set.
De Minaur is racing away,up 5-0 in the second set against Riedi and about to serve. Riedi, ranked 435 in the world, has had a fine run to this point but … oh, wait – a spanking forehand sets up a second break point and he takes it, pumping the right fist in relief, a game finally on the board. Nonetheless, De Minaur leads 6-3, 5-1.
Rublev has a break point … and he takes it after Auger-Aliassime goes long with a backhand. Rublev has a 7-1 record against Auger-Aliassime – they last met at Hamburg in May – and he’s up 2-1 in the first set.
De Minaur is looking rather comfortable over on Louis Armstrong. He’s already 3-0 up in the second set against Riedi, breaking the Swiss player’s serve twice. An overhead smash seals the second break.
Felix Auger-Aliassime is here after trumping the third seed Alexander Zverev – this is his first time in the fourth round of the US Open since his run to the semis in 2021. He thunders an ace down to hold his serve and go 1-0 up in the first set against Andrey Rublev.
Alex de Minaur takes the first set against Leandro Riedi 6-4, secured after Riedi goes long with a blasted forehand. The Australian has a peculiar record at the slams, reaching the quarter-finals of all four tournaments. But he’s still waiting for his first semi-final appearance.
Preamble
Hello, hello, hello and welcome to another week at Flushing Meadows. We’ve got more last-16 action in the singles, with eighth seed Alex de Minaur already up and running on Louis Armstrong, facing the Swiss qualifier Leandro Riedi. Iga Swiatek’s clash with Ekaterina Alexandrova will follow.
Felix Auger-Aliassime will open up on Arthur Ashe against Andrey Rublev, but the real eye-catcher is Naomi Osaka’s meeting with Coco Gauff, their first match at a grand slam since the 2020 Australian Open, when a 15-year-old Gauff shocked the defending champion. Here’s to some more drama today.
NEW YORK — This was a fourth-round match with unusually large consequences, a highly charged litmus test, a gut-check in real time.
After missing the entire 2023 season on maternity leave, four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka has expressed frustration with her lack of progress. When would her game regain that ethereal major-winning quality?
Coco Gauff, even in the wake of a title at Roland Garros, turned to biomechanics specialist Gavin MacMillan just before the US Open, willing to sacrifice short-term results by playing the long game. Could she rely on her great strengths of speed and competitive fire while making significant adjustments to her serve and forehand?
The answers arrived in only 64 minutes on Monday in Arthur Ashe Stadium as Osaka dropped a decisive 6-3, 6-1 decision on Gauff to advance to the quarterfinals. It’s Osaka’s first major quarterfinal since winning the 2021 Australian Open.
It was reminiscent of the memorable match between the two here six years ago. Osaka, at the height of her powers, dispatched a 15-year-old Gauff 6-3, 6-0 in a third-round match that ended with tears. The difference is that Gauff was seeded No. 3 here and Osaka was No. 23.
“I mean I’m a little sensitive — I don’t want to cry,” Osaka said afterward. “Honestly I had so much fun out here.
“This is my favorite court in the world, and it means so much to be back here.”
Much has been made of Osaka’s move to coach Tomasz Wiktorowski. And while Iga Swiatek’s former coach has been a boon to her confidence, the difference between the 2024 Osaka and this year’s edition might just be fitness — and the confidence that brings.
Even earlier this year, she appeared sluggish at times, impatient to end points quickly. Against Gauff, Osaka moved exceptionally well, weathered long rallies and stayed in a visibly positive frame of mind. Her intensity was palpable.
So was her patience. Osaka won 16 of the 24 rallies that went five shots or more. She also converted each of the four break points she earned. Osaka next plays Karolina Muchova, a three-set winner against Marta Kostyuk.
Gauff, meanwhile, consistently struggled with her forehand and service game. There were five double faults, but the forehand was the real issue. Gauff had 20 unforced errors on that side. On this occasion, even her usually reliable backhand sometimes broke down.
Even early on, Gauff’s forehand was fluky (five errors) and Osaka broke and then held at love for a 2-0 lead.
But while Gauff — with a tweaked toss — had eased into her service games in the opening rounds, she came out firing against Osaka. She stroked two aces in her second service game and the other two first serves were unreturned. They were all 110 mph-plus.
That break was the only margin until Gauff, trailing 5-3, was broken again. Two double faults, in addition to two groundstroke errors, gave Osaka the set in 31 minutes.
With the match on serve at 3-2 in the second set, Gauff served into trouble. A double fault started it and an errant backhand closed it as Osaka converted her third break point in her third try.
Osaka scored one last break to secure the match.
Osaka is realistically trying to win her third US Open title in eight years. This is her fifth trip to the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam. It’s worth noting that she won the first four.
The turning point, Osaka said, came last month in Montreal.
That was when Osaka came back from down a set and 5-3, saving two match points, to defeat No. 13 seed Liudmila Samsonova in a match that went more than two-and a-half hours.
“Since then, I’ve been thinking anything’s possible,” Osaka said in her on-court interview. “You just have to have a smile on your face.”
Judging by the rapturous reaction to his performance as wrestler Mark Kerr in “The Smashing Machine” at the Venice Film Festival on Monday night, that seems to be the consensus out of Italy.
The 53-year-old actor sobbed uncontrollably as the audience on the Lido erupted into 15-minute standing ovation, one of the longest at this year’s festival so far.
Johnson, who once performed as the WWE wrestler known as the Rock, has been the star of such commercial fare as “The Mummy,” “Black Adam” and “Baywatch.” But he goes much deeper in his next project, which will be released by A24 in November, as a ’90s fighter with demons.
Johnson stars opposite Emily Blunt in the film, who plays Kerr’s girlfriend Dawn Staples. During the ovation, Benny Safdie — the film’s director — hugged both his stars and joined Johnson in shedding tears of joy as the clapping continued. Adding to the waterworks, Kerr also wept as the credits rolled.
As the hooting and cheering stretched on, “The Smashing Machine” proved to be the most emotional premiere on the Lido since Brendan Fraser collapsed into tears four years ago, launching his Oscar campaign for “The Whale.”
Before the screening started, one fan shouted Johnson’s signature WWE line, “Can you smell what the Rock is cooking?!” — prompting laughter from the man of the hour.
Johnson was in good spirits throughout the night. He worked one of Europe’s most glamorous red carpets, signing autographs for fans and snapping selfies. This year’s 82nd edition of Venice has been packed with stars — ranging from George Clooney to Julia Roberts to Emma Stone — and Johnson and Blunt added to the A-list wattage of the festival that’s now known as the official launch of awards season.
Johnson is nearly unrecognizable “The Smashing Machine,” undergoing pounds of prosthetics to portray the beefy two-time UFC Heavyweight champ. The actor previously told Varietythat he was drawn to “The Smashing Machine” because Safdie is someone who “continues to push the envelope when it comes to stories that are raw and real; characters that are authentic and at times uncomfortable and arresting.”
“I’m at a point in my career where I want to push myself in ways that I’ve not pushed myself in the past,” said Johnson, best known for franchise fare like “Jumanji” and the “Fast and Furious” movies. “I want to make films that matter, that explore a humanity and explore struggle [and] pain.”
“The Smashing Machine” marks the solo feature directorial debut of Benny Safdie, who worked with his older brother, Josh, on indie favorites like “Good Time” and “Uncut Gems.” (Josh will also make his solo feature debut this year with A24’s “Marty Supreme,” a sports drama starring Timothee Chalamet.) “The Smashing Machine” reunites Benny Safdie and Blunt, who shared a memorable scene in Christopher Nolan’s historical epic “Oppenheimer,” as well as Johnson and Blunt, who co-starred in Disney’s action-adventure “Jungle Cruise.”
