Jennifer Sheffield celebrated the positives about her and Brandon Sheffield’s divorce in an ominous TikTok post weeks before they were both found dead in what authorities are alleging is an apparent murder-suicide.

“So, I’m about to be a newly single mom. I am in the middle of divorce,” Jennifer said in a video shared via TikTok on December 10, 2024. “My husband is being incredible, though, really and truly … we’re working together. Everything’s great.”

The 30-year-old TikTok personality appeared upbeat and happy as she recorded the video while driving around Mississippi.

“We’re splitting everything down the middle. Everything is good,” she said of her relationship with her estranged husband, Brandon, 40, at the time. “It is a very civil divorce with our daughter in mind.”

Jennifer confessed that since she was going to be a mom with a “single income,” she was reaching out to her network for tips on keeping costs down.

She noted that Brandon would be “helping” with the fees associated with their daughter once the divorce was finalized. “He will be supporting her, so essentially, like, I’m really thankful for that and that I will not have to worry so much about supporting her,” Jennifer continued.

However, she pointed out that she will be on a “very limited income with buying a new house,” and expressed concerns over branching out from Brandon, saying, “I’ve never done this before. I’ve never been on my own before.”

Jennifer concluded, “If you have any tips I would really appreciate it because I’m a little scared right now.”

The positive message about her relationship with Brandon amid their divorce was shared 18 days before Jennifer and Brandon were found dead on December 28, 2024, in Brandon, Mississippi, around 7:19 a.m. local time. Brandon Police Department chief Joseph French confirmed their deaths to Dark Horse Press Now that same day.

Authorities arrived on scene after receiving a welfare check call from Jennifer’s family, who reported signs of foul play.

The police chief reportedly told the outlet that it “appears that Brandon Sheffield shot Jennifer Sheffield and then shot himself,” before adding that the authorities were working with the theory that their deaths were the result of an apparent murder-suicide.

“This is an ongoing investigation,” French told ABC affiliate WJTV in a statement on December 28. “I would like to thank the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation for their assistance with the Crime Scene Unit to assist with processing the scene.”

Prior to her death, Jennifer documented her life as a mom in Mississippi, who was focused on getting into medical school. She had more than 6,500 followers and over 100,000 likes on her more recent videos.

Kim Kardashian and Katie Thurston are among the celebrities who can’t stop watching Love Is Blind.

The Kardashians star revealed in March 2020 that her sister Kendall Jenner and pal La La Anthony were responsible for her tuning in for season 1. “Alright @KendallJenner and @lala got me to watch Love Is Blind and I’m obsessed!!!!!!!!!” she shared via social media at the time.

Love Is Blind debuted in February 2020 on Netflix and followed a group of singles as they tried to make a connection — and get engaged — without seeing one another.

With six seasons of drama as of 2024, the series has continued to draw in viewers and celebrity fans, like Bachelorette alum Thurston.

“I just finished episode 6 of #loveisblind2 and all I’m gonna say is I’m #teamnatalie and just want her to be happy,” Thurston shared via social media in February 2022.

Grande revealed that after watching each season, she’ll “go to Instagram and find these people and make sure they're still together. I need to know what's happening.”

“Well, I’m obsessed with that show, so I have seen that,” Stewart said on a “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast episode in March 2024. “I’ve seen all of them.
I’ve seen every single moment. I’ve seen all of it.” Stewart noted that she likes watching the couples that get engaged quickly “because you’re like, ‘Thank you, Jesus, you just liked each other.’” She added, “I like the boring ones, the other ones are, like, scary.”

"I really love to sleep and lie around. I love on a Sunday to not do anything, watch rubbish TV and not make dinner and order in food. I really need one slovenly day," she told London's The Sunday Times in March 2024. “Oh my God! [I watch] Love Is Blind, which is like so f--king terrible and I can’t stop watching it. There are these dating shows on Netflix, like, Love on the Spectrum. That’s another thing Covid did. I had never seen a reality TV show until Covid. I had just never done it. Now it’s a slippery slope.”

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end revealed in March 2024 that he was hooked on season 6 of the series. “It’s the worst trash ever,” he joked during an episode of his and brother Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast.
Travis teased, “It is worse than Catching Kelce, but it is so f–king good,” referring to his short-lived E! dating series that aired in 2016. Travis tried to get Jason on board with Love Is Blind, saying, “You gotta watch!”

During a February 2024 appearance on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, Cooper said he’d recently become a huge fan of the Netflix dating show. “Love Is Blind? My lord,” Cooper quipped. “I’m new to it all, but whoa.” 
He also noted that he’d finished season 1 of Love Is Blind: Sweden, which he described as “incredible” despite disliking the dubbing. “Different mannerisms, different way of communicating,” he explained. “And they’re all real handsome over there in Sweden.”

Year after year, celebrities get into the winter spirit by heading to the mountains and channeling their inner snow bunny.

Whether they are getting in on the snow-filled fun alone or bringing their families, stars are all in on cold weather getaways. Ashlee Simpson and husband Evan Ross, for example, took their kids to Aspen, Colorado, for the holidays in December 2019, and met up with Ross’ extended family, including his sister Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross. They even coordinated their pajamas in between snow activities.

Comedian Chelsea Handler got in some serious aunt time with all of her nieces and nephews, as well as her siblings, during the 2019 holiday season in Whistler, Canada. “Having the time of my life on this mountain, thanks to the sage guidance of my two ski guides,” Handler captioned a series of photos while skiing at the time.

Donna D’Errico Reflects on Being Homeless Before Starring in ‘Baywatch’

Donna D’Errico is looking back on the more challenging moments of her life before she found success on Baywatch.

“I was homeless for a while. I was homeless for about three months, way in the beginning before Baywatch,” D’Errico, 56, exclusively told Us Weekly while attending the Los Angeles Mission’s annual Christmas celebration. During the event, D’Errico gave back by providing food to others experiencing homelessness on Skid Row, a neighborhood in L.A. that contains one of the largest populations of unhoused people in the country.

“I understand, and I sympathize with their plight,” the actress continued, adding that “it’s important” for people experiencing homelessness to “know that they’re a solid part of the community, too.”

“They’re not just outcasts and stuff that everybody looks down on. A lot of people do feel like that, but they shouldn’t be made to feel like that because we’re all people. Some of us have homes to live in, and some of us, unfortunately, don’t,” D’Errico said. “So, they’re categorized in the homeless group. But I don’t like doing that. We’re all people, and some are better off than others, and I want them to know that they’re important and valuable parts of society too.”

Celebrities With Shocking Pasts

While D’Errico reflected on her past, she noted that it’s important for her to give back to the community and the homeless population in L.A. because, like herself, she knows people who have been impacted by homelessness.

“Homelessness has touched me in several different ways,” she shared. “I’ve had family who were homeless for a while, friends who were homeless for a while.”

D’Errico also took to Instagram to share her support for the LA Mission’s cause, while thanking the organization for the opportunity to give back. “Thank you to @thelamission for allowing me to come volunteer these past many years,” she wrote in a post shared in December 2024. “We served hundreds of Christmas meals today to a great many lovely people who are down on their luck.”

Original ‘Baywatch’ Cast: Where Are They Now?

Everything changed for D’Errico when she booked the role of Donna Marco — a blonde bombshell lifeguard in the classic series Baywatch. Since then, she’s primarily focused on her work as an animal rights advocate.

D’Errico was set up with her ex-husband, Nikki Six of Mötley Crüe, by her Baywatch co-star Pamela Anderson, who was previously married to Mötley Crüe member Tommy Lee. D’Errico and Sixx married in 1996 and officially divorced in 2007.

When asked if D’Errico has seen Anderson’s latest film, The Last Showgirl, which has earned Anderson high critical praise for her performance, D’Errico said she hasn’t but added, “Whatever she’s got going on, I’m sure it’s fantastic.”

‘RHONJ' Star Danielle Cabral Reacts to Jen Aydin’s Jersey Mike’s Drama

Danielle Cabral couldn’t help but seemingly weigh in on her The Real Housewives of New Jersey costar Jennifer Aydin’s drama with multiple Jersey Mike’s employees.

“I’m usually pretty good at holding my tongue, keeping my mouth shut … not saying anything, take s— from every which way and I feel like I don’t wanna today,” Cabral, 36, said in a lengthy Instagram video uploaded on Friday, January 3. “So in light of all the s— that’s been going down, I feel compelled to say if you guys only knew what it was like to be involved with this person while she’s berating me on how I treat people.”

Since joining the RHONJ cast in season 13, Cabral has had her fair share of ups and downs with Aydin, 47.. Most notably the women were at odds in season 14, which resulted in a physical altercation that subsequently got them both briefly suspended from filming.

In the Friday clip, Cabral shared that when she figures out a person’s true colors she doesn’t hesitate to cut them off.

Why Does RHONJ’s Jennifer Aydin Have Drama With Jersey Mike's Workers?

“It broke my heart to know who people truly are and to see their true colors. Once I find that out done, bye, see you later,” she said. “And I guess it drove people insane that I’m so easily able to cut [people] out that they just spiraled and wanted to talk s—, and spew s—, and hatred and lies.”

While Cabral didn’t call out Aydin directly in the video, she was seemingly referring to the recent incident between Aydin and several Jersey Mike’s workers. The drama began when Aydin went on an Instagram Story rant about her alleged experience at a Jersey Mike’s location in an airport.

“They took our order and then they took the lady’s order that was after me but they fulfilled her order first somehow, made us wait,” Aydin claimed, calling out “the 80-year-old” working at the establishment. “Everything was slow. We’re not complaining. We get it, it’s early in the morning. You’re in a bad mood, it’s New Year’s, you’re working — I’d be pissed too.”

RHONJ's Jennifer Says Fight With 'Entitled' Danielle 'Gave Me the Ick'

Cabral explained that since joining the Real Housewives franchise, she’s only tried to use her platform for “good.” However, she claimed that because “idiots” have “spread lies” about her, she’s been getting trolls in her comments section to this day spewing hate based on “false narratives” created by others.

“Imagine being a person who only looked out for people. I wanted everyone to succeed, even that asshole, even this schmuck with what she did the other day,” she continued. “A leopard never changes its spots. At the end of the day, the truth always comes out and [the] true colors of certain individuals always comes out. I will stand my ground until the day that I die, I will take the bullets from the nonsense these idiots spewed.”

Cabral added that when people meet her in real life they’re surprised that she’s nice, adding that she’s been advocating for her fellow Housewives to rethink how they act — especially in public.

“Let this be a testament of don’t always believe what you see on TV. I can’t [say I feel] vindicated by this since real people were hurt,” she said. “To see the people in this video, this woman who was working at 7 o’clock … I’m sure you all felt the same way but damn man we gotta do better.”

RHONJ’s Danielle Says 'Violence Is Not the Answer' After Fight With Jennifer

An apparent employee of the sandwich shop then posted a now-viral video responding with the fast food chain’s perspective of the interaction.

“I really hope this stupid bitch has TikTok,” the employee began in her post. “I really hope I come up on your For You Page bitch, I really hope you recognize me.”

The worker claimed that Aydin didn’t know what she wanted and ended up ordering “four different sandwiches” and “changing the bread last minute.” While the staff was attempting to fulfill the requests, Aydin allegedly started “backing up the entire line.” Workers then told the RHONJ star she needed to get back in line if she was going to add more sandwiches. (Us Weekly has reached out to Aydin’s team for comment.)

“She starts tweaking,” the employee claimed, alleging that Aydin said, “I’m a celebrity” and claimed she was going to sue. “She starts recording all of us and she posts it. … Learn how to order.”

Blake Lively got her start in Hollywood with The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants films — the first of which premiered in 2005 — and never looked back.

Shortly after playing Bridget in the coming-of-age movie, Lively landed the role of Serena van der Woodsen on The CW’s Gossip Girl. The teen drama, which premiered in 2007, shot the actress to superstardom and her star has only risen in the decades since.

Following a romance with Gossip Girl costar Penn Badgley, which ended in 2010 after three years, and a brief fling with Leonardo DiCaprio, Lively found love with her Green Lantern costar Ryan Reynolds. The couple wed in 2012 and have since welcomed four children.

Lively has also expanded her brand with several business ventures including Betty Buzz and Blake Brown Beauty.

Lively starred as lead Lily Bloom in the highly anticipated movie It Ends With Us, which hit theaters in August. The story is based on the best-selling novel by the same name and follows Lily as she falls in love with an abusive surgeon named Ryle (Justin Baldoni) just as her first love Atlas (Brandon Sklenar) comes back into her life.
While promoting the project, rumors swirled that Lively and Baldoni didn’t get along and they were feuding off camera.
Lively filed a lawsuit against her It Ends With Us costar and director Baldoni in December 2024, claiming he sexually harassed her, inflicted emotional distress and invasion of privacy among other allegations. The filling came after the actress filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department one week prior.
Baldoni filed a countersuit in December 2024 against The New York Times for libel after the publication allegedly painted him a false light and invaded his privacy with its “We Can Bury Anyone: Inside a Hollywood Smear Machine” article that claimed Baldoni sexually harassed Lively for months on set.

While Lively and Baldoni’s It Ends With Us lawsuits were filed at the end of 2024, the legal battle trickled over into the new year. Baldoni’s lawyers claimed on January 3 that Baldoni did not coordinate a smear campaign against Lively like she alleged.
“Justin Baldoni, from the get-go, said, ‘I don’t want to do anything negative toward her. I don’t want to hurt her,’” the attorney said during an appearance on the Today show. The lawyer also said that Baldoni plans to countersue Lively and release all of their text conversations from their time working together.
