Sometimes, it’s not just the athlete taking the center stage, it’s who’s in their corner. And for NBA champion Isaiah Hartenstein, that attention is now shifted on his wife, Kourtney Kellar Hartenstein.

Fresh off her husband’s unforgettable run with the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the 2025 NBA title, Kourtney made a splash of her own. No, not courtside. This time, she stepped back into the boxing ring, not to fight, but to announce her return as a ring girl for the Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano showdown.

“I’m back and I’m excited about it,” she told TMZ ahead of the highly anticipated bout. “It’s been a while.”


Kourtney Is Back In The Ring, Bigger Than Ever

Kourtney’s no stranger to the limelight.

She built her career as a model and influencer over the years, amassing over 650,000 followers on social media. But fans didn’t just follow her for fashion tips or glam shots.

Her return to the ring brought back memories of her viral moment as a ring girl during one of Jake Paul’s earlier fights. That appearance took her visibility to another level; now, she’s ready to do it again.

And fans are already eating it up. “You are gorgeous! Now I want to watch this fight just to see you on the ring!!” one fan wrote on Instagram.

Another added, “I love Kourtney! So simple when not in the ring, doesn’t brag how gorgeous she is.”

Kourtney and Isaiah’s story began on Instagram like any modern love tale.

The two connected a few years back, engaged in 2022, tied the knot in 2023, and welcomed their first child earlier this year. Through it all, she’s balanced modeling, family life, and now, returning to the boxing scene.

Meanwhile, Isaiah has carved out his path to stardom.

After bouncing between four NBA teams from 2018 to 2022, he found stability and success with the Knicks. But it was his move to Oklahoma City that changed everything. Signing a three-year, $87 million deal with the Thunder, he became the team’s starting center and helped lead them to a championship.

And now, Kourtney’s taking her next big leap. When asked what’s next, she kept it short: “It’s going to be historic.” If tonight’s crowd reaction is any hint, she might be right.

 

Fearne Cotton has broken her silence on split from husband Jesse Wood in her first TV interview since the breakup.

Joining Lorraine Kelly on Monday’s episode of the ITV show, the TV presenter, 43, also gave an health update after having two tumours removed from jaw.

Fearne announced her split from Jesse, the son of Rolling Stones bass guitarist Ronnie Wood, in December after 10 years of marriage.

She has since made swipes at Jesse and moved on with TV director Elliot Hegarty, with the pair having been seen kissing during a recent night out.

Fearne has had a difficult few months after undergoing surgery to remove two benign tumours from her jawline, just days before her split with Jesse emerged.

She told host Lorraine: ‘It’s all very amicable and kids are doing great. I am in a very good place.’place.’

Discussing her recent surgery, she added: ‘I feel very grateful to have completely recovered.

‘I feel really good. I have a lot of people reaching out who have had the same thing.’

Davina McCall, 56, announced in November she’d been diagnosed with a colloid cyst, a rare type of benign brain tumour, and has supported Fearne.

She continued: ‘Everyone needs a Davina. She’s been amazing, weird that we had the same health thing going on at the same time. She’s so calming and we speak every day. She is just the best

It comes after Fearne has seemingly made another thinly-veiled dig at her ex-husband as she gushed that she is the happiest she’s ever been in a positive update.

Speaking to Scott Mills on his BBC Radio 2 breakfast show, Fearne gushed that she is ‘really happy’ and is ‘springing out of bed in the morning ready for life’.

Scott, who has known Fearne for 25 years, said he has never seen her ‘more positive or happier’, prompting Fearne to agree and reply: ‘Yeah I feel great!’
