First 90 secondsMichelle Andrews· Host0:00
Have we seen the pap shots of Zoe Kravitz?
Zara McDonald· Host0:02
I haven't seen anything.
Michelle Andrews· Host0:04
Zoe Kravitz is dating, of course, Harry Styles.
Zara McDonald· Host0:07
Yeah. Yeah. What are we seeing?
Michelle Andrews· Host0:09
A big, fat diamond- Shut up ... on that finger.
Zara McDonald· Host0:13
How is this thing?
Michelle Andrews· Host0:13
Now, I have said this, and then immediately my brain's gone, "What if it's AI?" [laughs] Or, "What if it's fake news?" Uh- Yeah ... let's Google Plus or minus 70% in 2026. Yeah.

Zara McDonald· Host0:28
No, people have said- Oh, yeah, no ... that she stepped out wearing a ring on that finger.
Michelle Andrews· Host0:33

Michelle Andrews· Host0:54
How long have they been together?
Zara McDonald· Host0:55
I mean, in my, in my life, like, three months- [laughs] ... but probably longer than that.
Michelle Andrews· Host1:00
Does it warrant a collab post?
Zara McDonald· Host1:01
[laughs] Yes, but just to remind the listeners, it doesn't just have to be marriage or anything like that if that's not for you.
Michelle Andrews· Host1:07
Oh, she's progressive.
Zara McDonald· Host1:08
[laughs] But yes, I would say an engagement is fine.
Michelle Andrews· Host1:11
It's engagement or you're together for 10 years- [laughs] ... that's Zara's barometer for a couple's collab post.
Zara McDonald· Host1:16
