Vacations

Hilary Duff is staying above water when it comes to motherhood.

Hilary's soakin' up the sun with her son, Luca, and friends over in Hawaii. She's taking it all in -- some fun on a paddle board, catching some rays and definitely some waves ... all in mommy mode.

Motherhood suits her well ... especially in a striped bathing suit, despite it being understandably PG.

Lauren Bushnell's been keeping a new flame on the DL since splitting from 'Bachelor' Ben Higgins -- which is baffling, because they look great together!

Lauren was in Maui this past weekend, where she caught a sunset pic with her new boyfriend, Devin Antin -- a 28-year-old real estate investor from L.A. We're told they were on a weeklong vacation.

Sources close to the couple tell us they met 2 years ago, before she won Ben's 'Bachelor' season ... but were strictly friends, no bennies.

After Lauren broke up with Ben in May, we're told they reconnected and romance sparked. We know what you're thinking -- but our sources say there was zero overlap with Ben.

While Devin and Lauren have been spotted doing friendly stuff -- an NBA game in June, a baseball game in July -- these seem to be the first romantic PDA shots.

Maybe it's just us, but that lighting looks kinda familiar. Just sayin' ...

2:36 PM PT -- Kobe has ... (ahem) ... weighed in on the pics -- saying, "Objects on camera may appear larger than they do in the mirror haha."

He added, "ok...ok...ok. Gimme 30 days #challengeaccepted #mambathick #mambabeast."

Kobe Bryant's chest is just like his jumper ... SMOOTH!

The Mamba ditched the shirt for a relaxing poolside session in Portofino, Italy while on vacation with his family -- but just like the rest of us, he couldn't muster up the strength to put his phone away.

Italy is like a second home for Kobe -- he grew up there while his father played pro ball in Calabria and speaks fluent Italian.

Portofino is poppin' right now for rich people -- Kris Jenner hit up the vacation spot last month. Same with Tiffany Trump. And Heidi Klum was there last week!

Maybe they all use the same waxer?

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick are fully back on track as co-parents after some serious conversations and a little family vacation.

Sources close to the situation tell us Kourtney's laid out the rules loud and clear to Scott ... if things are gonna work, there's no more hard partying and he's gotta respect her dating someone else. We're told so far, Scott's obliged and things have gone swimmingly.

The pair recently spent some time in Nantucket with their 3 kids. Our sources say, while they're totally done romantically, they realize the importance of showing their kids they can get along.

TMZ broke the story, Kourtney was furious with Scott after he had a jealousy-fueled party spree back in May ... and even kept the kids from him until he cleaned up his act. For now, we're told it's squeaky clean.

Hold your breath as you swim through these below the surface snaps of these snorkeling stars who are makin' a splash on social media.

Steve Jobs' widow brought her best accessories to Croatia -- her daughter, hot bf and Steve's yacht.

Laurene Powell hit up the historic city of Dubrovnik in southern Croatia flanked by 19-year-old daughter Eve and bf Adrian Fenty ... the former mayor of D.C.

Docked not far off the coast was the 256-foot, $100 mil yacht, Venus ... commissioned by the late Apple founder back in 2008. He never got to enjoy it -- Steve died a year before it was finished in 2012.

Laurene will take it from here ...

Kevin Hart and his pregnant wife look to be rock solid ... on the sand down in Cabo San Lucas.

Eniko's about six months along right now and still rocking a bikini during their Mexican beach vacay. She and Kevin showed no signs of tension the week after cheating allegations were reported. Kevin's dismissed that as "BS" ... btw.

The Harts were hanging with Ludacris and his wife, along with several other friends -- and the guys were flexing and mugging around the pool.

Ciara and Russell Wilson have a little thrill-seeker on their watch ... 3-month-old daughter Sienna, who can't walk yet but is already hauling down a mountainside on an alpine slide.

The Wilsons are in China, where they've been taking in sights like the Great Wall, and over the weekend took a family toboggan ride.

Doesn't look like China has an age or height restriction on their alpine slide courses. Ciara rode with Sienna strapped to her chest, while Russ came down with 3-year-old Future.

Those things are pretty safe IF you don't go fast, and looks like Russ and Ciara always had a hand on the brake. The views ... also not bad.

Eva Longoria and her husband's honeymoon phase still seems to be in full swing after more than a year of marriage -- boobs in the face will do that!

Eva and her media mogul hubby, Jose Baston, hit the beach in Marbella, Spain Tuesday ... and he had a particularly nice view as she helped him up from the water.

The couple tied the knot in May 2016 and show no signs of slowing down with the fun activities.

Now this is effective marriage counseling.

Nicole Scherzinger and her Bulgarian pro tennis player boyfriend, Grigor Dimitrov, are far from splitting up, but that doesn't mean they can't pull off the splits.

The former Pussycat Doll pulled out some of her old tricks while lounging around Monday on the Italian isle of Capri.

Some people relax while on vacation ... Nicole and Grigor, who is ranked number 10 in the world and got beaten by Roger Federer in the fourth round of Wimbledon, got in a little yoga, a swim sesh and a whole lotta PDA.

Losing can't be that bad when you follow it up with Nicole on vacation.

Chris Christie went ham Sunday at a news conference when a reporter dared to ask him if he got a tan while sitting on a beach the NJ Governor closed down, firing back, "We're talking about the closure of government and you're talking about your TMZ stuff."

Christie's taking more heat than he got from his beach outing, captured by The Star-Ledger of New Jersey. Christie had closed the beach in the wake of a government shutdown in his state over failure to pass a budget.

The most hilarious part ... after Christie left the beach over the weekend, he was asked if he had gotten any sun and said, "I didn't get any sun today." Then photos surfaced and his spokesperson gyrated ... "He did not get any sun. He had a baseball hat on."

Thanks to some divine intervention ... we've learned Bieber's friends are Laura and Ava Lentz -- wife and daughter of his pastor and pal Carl Lentz.

Nothing to see here, folks.

Justin Bieber's a fan of three's company ... it's how he rolls.

The Biebs was hanging onto a brunette beauty while walking near the shore in the South of France. The younger girl appears to be tagging along -- maybe the daughter of Justin's companion? Whatever ... he doesn't seem to mind.

Justin's girl has great taste -- not because she's with him. Check out her Kate Moss tank.

Sorry, President Obama ... but Daddy's little girl ain't so little anymore, and might even be dunking on him pretty soon, based on these shots from the family vacay to Indonesia.

The Obamas visited a Buddhist temple Wednesday in Central Java, just west of Bali, and the proof is in the pics ... Malia's a growing young lady! She's now less than a couple inches shy of 44's 6'1" height.

Michelle's 5'11" ... so the genes are strong with this one.

Too bad she doesn't hoop. Malia might mess around and get a triple-double!

The Obama women were out in full force Monday in Bali ... sarong-in' it up.

The ladies, along with Barack, took a tour of the Tirta Empul Temple during their latest stop on what seems to be a global vacay. Previous stops include various cities in Italy, Virgin Islands, Tahiti, Scotland, and Palm Springs ... if that counts.

Life doesn't get much better. Barack and Michelle are scoring $60 mil for their memoirs, his popularity has soared since leaving office, and the fam is tight.

Does Brooke Burke's husband, David Charvet, want to be ANYWHERE else in the world right now? "Namaste right here and shoot video of my wife bending over in a bikini."

Brooke and David are cruising the Italian Riviera on a yacht, and y'know how it goes: When you're on a boat and sporting a small bikini, there's always time to get in some yoga stretches.

David played amateur photog while Brooke did her best to stay flexible.

This is a trip we can all get behind ... if Brooke keeps this up.

President Obama was NOT the captain of this ship ... and he's totally cool with it.

The former Prez and Michelle took Malia and Sasha along for their latest vacation in Bali ... where they did some white water rafting. Based on Sasha's smile we're guessing these were class II rapids at best.

The Obamas also toured a rice terrace as they kicked off a 10-day trip that will end in Jakarta. Barack is making a speech there to the Indonesian Congress. Barack spent part of his childhood living in the country, so it's a bit of a homecoming.

He's going back in style -- reportedly staying at the Four Seasons in Bali where rooms can run several thousand per night.

Their $60 mil book advances should cover it.
