The couple were reportedly telling friends their good news at Robert Pattinson’s birthday party in Los Angeles on Saturday, June 9. The couple, both 24-years-old, only got together in mid-May just days after Grande split after her boyfriend of two years, Mac Miller, and Davidson broke up with his girlfriend of two years, Cazzie David. Grande and Davidson first confirmed they were an item with a Harry Potter-themed Instagram, posted on Davidson’s account on May 30.

Davidson even got two tatts inspired by Grande: a pair of bunny ears inked behind his ear and her initials on his thumb. Sigh, young love…

American Express has teamed up with eco-organization Parley to create the first-ever American Express Card made primarily from recovered plastic sourced from the oceans and on the coasts.
The partnership also includes a number of eco-initiatives within American Express, with the company adopting Parley’s AIR (Avoid, Intercept, Redesign) philosophy. American Express made a corporate pledge to limit single-use plastics, intercept plastic waste, and redesign existing materials and plastic products. “Our oceans play a vital role in our lives, the health of our planet and the health of travel and tourism, which American Express has long supported. It’s important that we raise awareness and do our part to keep our oceans blue,” said Doug Buckminster, group president of global consumer services of American Express. “Partnering with Parley is the right next step as we pursue our larger vision of backing our communities and sustaining the planet we share.”
The credit card company also is launching a slew of other eco-friendly internal initiatives including pursuing a strategy to reduce the use of virgin plastic in their cards; to phase out plastic straws and plastic coffee stirrers in its corporate offices and Centurion airport lounges within the next thirty days; and set a comprehensive waste reduction strategy to reduce single-use plastic and increase their recycling rates in all its operations globally by the end of the year.
