Shelby Stivale

Shelby Stivale had her first byline on Us Weekly in 2021 while also overseeing digital content for J-14. Two years later, she waved goodbye to teen news (but still loves One Direction) and became a full-time Senior Writer for Us. Now, Shelby oversees the podcast and books vertical, while spending some time thinking about life across the pond and writing about the royal family. While Shelby will tell you that she’s part of Alex Cooper‘s Daddy Gang and loves Megan Miranda thriller novels, she won’t pick sides in any royal family feuds (but Princess Anne is her favorite.) When she’s not working, Shelby can be found carrying her Kindle while wearing a cheetah print outfit (she is from New Jersey) and bragging about having two degrees — a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism from Indiana University and Masters of Science in Digital Media Management from the University of Southern California.
