Nordstrom New Arrivals: 17 Pieces I'm Buying for Effortless Winter-to-Spring Transitional Dressing

16 New Arrivals to Shop at Nordstrom for Spring 2025

Transitional Tops

1. Sculpt and Slay: A T-shirt that actually does something? Yes, please! This stretchy, body-hugging design sculpts while keeping you comfy, making it the perfect layer.

2. Favorite Top: This asymmetrical top offers endless outfit possibilities. It has the type of silhouette that makes dressing up (or down) easy.

4. Wardrobe Must-Have: Every closet needs a crisp linen button-up, and this one has that relaxed yet tailored fit.

Comfortable Bottoms

5. Effortlessly Cool: Featuring a frayed hem, these jeans have a perfectly lived-in vibe. They look like you’ve had them forever — in the best way!

6. Waist Snatcher: These high-rise jeans hit just right to give you that ultra-flattering, waist-cinching effect while staying comfy. Plus, the straight-leg cut is perfect for showing off your best kicks.

7. Tailored Trousers: These aren’t the Bermudas of the early 2000s (thankfully). Steve Madden’s denim shorts have a tailored feel you can dress up with a blazer or keep casual with a tank.

Flowy Dresses

Fab Footwear

13. The Wear-Everywhere Shoe: Structured like a loafer yet effortless like a mule, these shoes offer the best of both worlds! They’re bound to become the slip-ons you’ll reach for daily.

14. Leather Sandals: You don’t need 5-inch heels for a leg-lengthening look. The tapered heel on these strappy sandals will have a similar effect.

15. The Everyday Heel: We would like these sandals in all nine colors, please. Sleek and simple with just two straps, they are a minimalist’s dream come true!

16. Flip-Flop Glow-Up: The flip-flop just got a major upgrade. Small swaps, like the square toe and chunky heel seen on this pair, elevate the summer staple.

RHOP's Gizelle Bryant Gives Update on Jailed Karen Huger and Husband Ray

The Real Housewives of Potomac’s Gizelle Bryant is giving an update on Karen Huger after she was sentenced to prison last month.

The RHOP original told Andy Cohen on his Andy Cohen Live radio show that she has had no contact with Karen, 61, since she was imprisoned on February 26, but she has been in touch with Karen’s husband, Ray.

“I have reached out to Ray. He’s keeping the circle that’s going to be contacting Karen very tight. As of right now, I’m not on it,” Gizelle, 54, said on the Wednesday, March 5, episode of Cohen’s SiriusXM radio show. “But he’s open.”

Gizelle also revealed that all of the RHOP cast have rallied around Ray, 79, as he deals with his wife’s imprisonment.

“All the ladies have been very concerned about Ray,” Gizelle shared. “I did tell him, ‘We wanna start sending you food on a weekly basis. We’re gonna take turns.’ He did say he’s overwhelmed with food, no, thank you. He knows we’re here to support in whichever way we can.”

Cohen added of Karen, “We are all just praying that she gets through this quickly and gracefully.”

Last month, Karen was sentenced to two years in jail with one year suspended, meaning she will be incarcerated for one year. She was ordered to report directly to police custody.

The sentencing came after the Bravo star, known as the “Grand Dame” of Potomac, was previously charged with a DUI, a DWI and reckless driving after a March 2024 car accident. She was found guilty on nearly all charges — except the count of driving recklessly — in December 2024.

“Although we are disappointed in the jury’s verdict, we of course respect their decision and appreciate their time hearing our case,” Huger’s lawyer, A. Scott Bolden, said in a statement to People at the time. “We continue to reserve Mrs. Huger’s right to an appeal and intend to fully pursue justice on her behalf. We appreciate your support and prayers for Mrs. Huger and her family at this time.”

Cohen weighed in on Karen’s sentencing during the Monday, March 3, episode of Andy Cohen Live.

“We haven’t been on since Karen was sentenced, and I don’t have much to say,” Cohen, 56, said. “I will say, I am thinking of Karen every day. I’ve been thinking about her a lot and I’m so sad about this. I’m so sad about how this entire thing has played out.”

While Cohen stated that he is a “Karen fan,” he made it clear that drunk driving “is no joke” and was surprised to hear from a Potomac judge that Karen had previous legal troubles involving alcohol.

“It’s so bad, so that this was her fourth situation was tough to hear and I’m not surprised that the judge was not playing, you know?” he explained. “I’m not surprised at all, and then hearing what I heard on the reunion last night from Gizelle [Bryant] who said that she heard that she was offered a plea and home confinement for six months. Who were her lawyers that were recommending to go to trial on this when they knew there was body cam footage like that? I mean, it’s so sad.”

Gizelle previously said she was “shook” to learn her costar would be spending time behind bars.

“I do not have her wigs. I am concerned,” Gizelle said during her Gizelle 21 Shady Questions Live at City Winery event on February 26. “In all seriousness, I am concerned for her safety. Karen ain’t cut out for jail. I pray that she’s OK and that the Lord is with her.”

A day later, RHOP costar Ashley Darby, 36, said she “cried like a baby” after learning of Karen’s sentencing.

Fellow Housewife Wendy Osefo also shared her reaction exclusively with Us Weekly. “I was definitely shocked, but I’m just keeping her in my prayers because I’m sure it’s a very difficult time for her,” Osefo, 40, told Us at the 18th annual ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Awards in Los Angeles on Thursday, February 27.

Bhad Bhabie’s boyfriend, Le Vaughn, was shot in the hand during an altercation at a Los Angeles strip club, reports TMZ.

According to the outlet, Le Vaughn was injured early Wednesday, March 5, after two groups of men opened fire inside Sam’s Hofbrau near downtown L.A. The rapper’s boyfriend was shot in the hand and another person was hit in the shoulder, TMZ reported, citing the Los Angeles Police Department.

A suspect reportedly managed to evade arrest by getting away in a white G-Wagon.

Us Weekly has reached out to the LAPD for comment.

Bhad Bhabie — real name Danielle Bregoli — and Le Vaughn welcomed their first child together, a baby girl, in March 2024.

The couple have been in the headlines over the last few months after Bhabie, 21, accused Travis Barker’s daughter, Alabama Barker, of interfering in her relationship with Le Vaughn.

Alabama, 19, fired back, claiming Le Vaughn had been reaching out to her and she did not know he was already in a relationship at the time.

“I want to be clear: I have no interest in this man,” she said at the time via her Instagram Story, before expanding on “the way this situation has been misrepresented and the damage it has done to my character.”

When Bhabie called her out in her track “Overcooked” in January, Alabama responded with a diss track of her own, “Cry Bhabie.”

Bhad Bhabie Reveals She’s Made More Than $57 Million on OnlyFans

In February, Bhabie dropped another diss track about Alabama, “Ms. Whitman.” The track takes shots at Alabama’s rap style, her lack of musical accolades and her rumored relationship with Soulja Boy. Alabama and Soulja Boy have both denied a relationship.

Bhabie also released a video for the track, which features a Travis Barker lookalike playing the drums while she twerks around him. Meanwhile, the lyrics invoke Kourtney Kardashian, Travis’ wife, with the line, “Your stepmom burnt out, why she took her sister’s second-hand? (Wow) / I know your route, you’re reaching out, you need my name for clout (Clout).”

Stephen A. Smith is predicting a big year for his “dawg” Travis Kelce and girlfriend Taylor Swift.

The ESPN sportscaster, 57, gave his hot takes on various topics during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, March 5, including whether he thinks Kelce and Swift, both 35, will tie the knot in 2025.

“I’m scared to get this wrong!” Smith told host Jimmy Fallon. “Travis Kelce, that’s my dawg.”

Smith continued, “A lot of ladies love Travis Kelce. Travis Kelce has loved a lot of ladies. But Taylor Swift’s a different animal.”

“She looks good. She’s incredibly talented. And she’s worth about a billion [dollars],” Smith went on. “We’re going to guess a ‘yes’ on this one.”

Fallon then chimed in, “Oh, I hope that happens.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Relationship Timeline

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end and pop superstar have been dating since mid-2023, though they didn’t go public with their relationship until September that year.

The couple have gone from strength to strength since then; Swift has supported Kelce at various Chiefs games, including the 2024 and 2025 Super Bowls. Meanwhile, Kelce was spotted at various shows on Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour last year and even performed with her on stage in London last June.

“It’s very unlike me. I’m not big, I don’t like going on stages. There were a lot of people out there, really didn’t feel at home,” Kelce recalled on a July 2024 episode of his “New Heights” podcast after his brother, Jason Kelce, brought up the “magical” surprise.

“I initially mentioned to Tay, I was like, ‘How funny would it be if I just rolled out on one of the bikes during the 1989 [section]?’ She started laughing, she was like, ‘Would you seriously be up for doing something like that?’ I was like, ‘What? I would love to do that, are you kidding me?’” Kelce said. “I’ve seen the show enough, might as well put me to work here. And sure enough, she found the perfect part of the show for me to come in. There was no, like, bike in case I ran into somebody else or hit one of the dancers or anything. It was, like, the safest option.”

Taylor Swift's Best Moments With Travis Kelce's Family

During Swift’s Tortured Poets Department set, Kelce appeared on stage alongside two of her dancers following her performance of “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.” Kelce carried Swift down the catwalk as she pretended to throw a tantrum before singing “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” Kelce fanned himself as Swift changed into a new costume. Once she was ready to sing again, she blew her boyfriend a kiss and he beamed on stage.

“Kam and Jan, [in] part of the Tortured Poets era of the show, are trying to bring Tay back to life, right? Trying to bring her back to life, get her ready to perform the rest of the show, so to speak, knowing she can do it with a broken heart,” Kelce explained on the podcast. “It’s such a fun, like, playful part of the show.”

As for Kelce and Swift, sources exclusively told Us Weekly in February that the couple are enjoying quality time together after the end of Kelce’s NFL season and Swift’s world tour.

A source told Us “there’s a sense of relief” for the couple, noting that their plans include “laying low” and figuring out their next steps. A second source said, “There’s no way to have a relationship when they’re all over the place with work. It’s going to be easier now to find time to go over plans and make sure everything aligns.”

Jennie Garth Calls the Oscars ‘Messed Up’ For Snubbing Shannen Doherty

Jennie Garth is criticizing the 2025 Oscars for snubbing the late Shannen Doherty in its “In Memoriam” segment.

Garth, 52, shared her thoughts with TMZ in an encounter posted on Wednesday, March 5. When a reporter for the outlet approached her on the street and asked about the snub, the actress replied, “Yeah, that’s messed up.”

“What do you think should happen now? Should the Oscars issue an apology maybe?” the reporter questioned Garth, who responded with: “Maybe.” But her expression conveyed that, yes, perhaps the show’s producers should apologize for the omission.

While Doherty was not included in the montage, which played during the Sunday, March 2, ceremony held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, she was listed as one of the names that Hollywood lost in 2024-2025 on the official Academy website. (Michelle Trachtenberg, who died on February 26 at the age of 39, was also missing from the ceremony’s montage and only listed online.)

90210’s James Eckhouse Mourns Shannen Doherty in Touching Tribute

Garth and Doherty starred in the hit TV show Beverly Hills, 90210, which aired from 1990 to 2000. Garth stayed in the cast for the whole 10 years, while Doherty departed after four seasons.

In July 2024, Doherty died at age 53 following a long battle with cancer. Garth was one of the first of Doherty’s former costars to speak out in the wake of her death.

“I am still processing my tremendous grief over the loss of my long time friend Shannen,” Garth shared via Instagram at the time. “The woman I have often described as one of the strongest people I have ever known. Our connection was real and honest.”

She added: “We were so often pitted against each other but none of that reflected the truth of our real relationship which was one built on mutual respect and admiration. She was courageous, passionate, determined and very loving and generous. I will miss her and will always honor her deeply in my heart and in my memories.”

Jennie Garth Remembers Shannen Doherty ‘Assessing’ Her Boyfriends

Later that month, Garth appeared on Today, where she further addressed the loss of her friend. 

“I was in shock because we all know that Shannon was fighting cancer for a long time, but I don’t know, there was just something about her,” she said. “She was such a fighter and a pro. I just didn’t think that would happen for some reason.”

Tori Spelling, a fellow 90210 alum, had also paid tribute to Doherty.

“I think the big takeaway in the last two weeks is I’ve really been going back in time privately and thinking about the enormous effect that Shannen had,” Spelling, 51, said on her “Misspelling” podcast last summer. “Not just on a generation and generations to come. It’s going to keep going. She will live on in her work and in the people that loved her and the things she stood for.”

Why Meghan Markle’s 'With Love, Meghan' Wasn’t Filmed at Her Real House

Meghan Markle is explaining why she opted not to film her new Netflix show inside her actual home in Montecito, California.

“I wanted to protect that safe haven,” Meghan, 43, told People in an interview published on Wednesday. March 5. “We’re a close-knit family, and I love those moments — putting Lili down for a nap, having lunch together, having sacred time together at the end of the day.”

She noted: “Our kitchen is where Mama just cooks for the family, and with a crew of 80-plus people, that’s a lot of people to have in your house!”

Meghan and Prince Harry, 40, moved into their coastal property in 2020 after leaving the United Kingdom and their official royal duties behind. They share two children, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3. 

Was Meghan Markle’s Netflix Show Actually Filmed in Her Montecito Home?

With Love, Meghan, produced by the couple’s Archewell Productions, highlights Meghan’s cooking, gardening and more, alongside her celebrity friends. In addition to a brief cameo by Prince Harry, Mindy Kaling, Alice Waters and Abigail Spencer appear throughout the series. Meghan used a rental home for indoor scenes, and filmed outdoor segments in her own garden, orchard and chicken coop.

The show premiered on Monday, March 4, coinciding with the launch of Meghan’s lifestyle brand, As Ever.

“Archie did the [filming clapboard]! Sweet moments,” she told People. “They would also come with my husband and visit me on-set, and I loved that my children were able to watch me working and see the balance of that and understand what Mama does and is working to create and share. It was really special because up until then, they hadn’t seen me at work.” 

The Duchess of Sussex gushed about her family life in a segment on The Drew Barrymore Show that is due to air on Thursday, March 6.

“OK, what’s your favorite thing that you see in your kids that you go, ‘Oh, that’s their dad?’” Drew Barrymore asked Meghan.

Meghan replied: “Oh, some of the words that they still say with a British accent, so they’ll say z-e-b-r-a and what else do they say? They have these little moments where it comes out and because they have very American accents, but they say words that are just like him and I think it’s adorable.”

Meghan also told Barrymore, 50, that she incorporates bedtime stories into her kids’ routines when she travels, and will “always pack a really thin book and I’ll videotape myself reading it so whoever’s with them or Papa can say, ‘Here’s mama reading your bedtime story,’” she said.

She added, “You find ways to show up for each other and if that’s the one thing that I can convey through the show or through As Ever as a brand, I want people to know you can show up for each other because you know how good it feels when someone shows up for you.”

Khloe Kardashian's 'Life Savings' Helped Kim Kardashian Amid Damon Divorce

5 March 2025 at 21:00

Kim Kardashian didn’t have any funds after her divorce from Damon Thomas — so she used the money sister Khloé Kardashian saved in her childhood piggy bank to get back on her feet.

During the Thursday, March 6, episode of The Kardashians, Kim, 44, thanked Khloé, 40, for helping in her time of need.

“When Khloé was maybe 4 or 5 years old, she got this piggy bank in the shape of a Coca-Cola bottle. We would put so much money in it,” Kim recalled. “When I was getting my first divorce, I moved out and had no money. I was like 21 and she gave me her Coke bottle.”

Kim was able to move into her own place, adding, “We were up all night counting it and it was 6,000 dollars and it was enough for me to get a downpayment on my apartment. She gave me her life savings at age 21.”

Meanwhile in a separate confessional, Khloé explained the decision.

“She was crying in my room and I was just like, ‘I have this so let’s take what is in here and go to the bank to cash it. Let’s use this money for your divorce,'” she shared. “I gave her all that I got and hopefully helped her.”

At 19, Kim married Thomas, now 54, whom she divorced before her debut on Keeping Up With the Kardashians in 2007. The duo, who had a 10-year age difference, were married for three years until they called it quits in 2003.

Nearly one decade later, Kim got engaged to Kris Humphries in 2011 following a whirlwind romance. Kim and Humphries, now 40, tied the knot in 2011 but split after 72 days of marriage. Their divorce was finalized in April 2013 following a lengthy court battle.

Kim moved on from Humphries with longtime friend Kanye West. One year after welcoming daughter North, the couple got married in 2014. They later welcomed son Saint in 2015, daughter Chicago in 2018 and son Psalm in 2019. In February 2021, Kim filed for divorce after nearly seven years of marriage.

“I’ve been there when you don’t foresee something happening that really changes a person’s personality and then they aren’t the same person,” she said in a February episode of The Kardashians while seemingly referring to West’s controversial behavior on social media. “You can’t ever get that person back but you can’t live with the new person. I get it.”

She continued: “It is tougher when you don’t want your marriage to end for personal reasons but circumstances change that force your marriage to end. I have been there and Khloé has been there. When you weren’t planning on that and it isn’t really the outcome you want but there’s no other option, it makes it harder to get over.”

What Kim Kardashian Has Said About Dating After Divorce

Since their split, Kim has since been linked to Pete Davidson and Odell Beckham Jr. — but she isn’t in a rush to get married again.

“I think I am definitely going to be really cautious because I maybe have proven that I am not the best at [marriage]. And I don’t want to make that mistake again,” she said during the June 2022 episode of Today With Hoda & Jenna. “Sometimes I think, ‘Should I just be in one of those relationships like Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell [who are together but not married]?’ It seems to be working out for them.”

Kim Kardashian, Kanye West's Son Confuses Justin Timberlake and Jayson Tatum

5 March 2025 at 21:00
Kim Kardashian Kanye West s Son Doesn t Know Who Justin Timberlake Is Does That Mean Jayson Tatum 730

Justin Timberlake is a household name for most people — but not for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West‘s kids.

During the Thursday, March 6, episode of The Kardashians, Kim, 44, planned Khloé Kardashian‘s 40th birthday party with help from son Saint, 9, and daughter Chicago, 7. The event was Dollywood-themed, which confused Kris Jenner‘s boyfriend, Corey Gamble.

“I don’t think anyone knows that it is somewhat of a Western theme,” Kim told Corey, 44. “You can even just wear a T-Shirt and then put on chains and jeans. Or you can go full on J.T.”

Saint interjected to ask if J.T. means Jayson Tatum.

Justin Timberlake Turns 44! Relive His Biggest Moments Over the Years

“Do you know who Justin Timberlake is?” Kim asked Saint, who denied being familiar with the former ‘NSync band member. “[Saint] said, ‘Who is J.T.?’ Jason Tatum?’ That is just where my kids are at. ”

Justin, 44, got his start performing with Lance Bass, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick. The boy band was originally formed in 1995 and reached stardom with hit songs including “Bye Bye Bye” and “Tearin Up My Heart.”

In 2007, Lance confirmed that the group parted ways to explore solo endeavors. ‘NSync has since collaborated on several new songs, including “Better Place” from the third Trolls movie — but Justin has remained focused on his solo career.

Justin has also made headlines for his personal life. Before his marriage to Jessica Biel, Justin famously dated Britney Spears — and The Kardashians even showed a photo of the former pair on Thursday. The couple dated from 1999 to 2002 after meeting on the set of The Mickey Mouse Club.

After their breakup, Justin raised eyebrows with the music video for his hit single “Cry Me a River,” which seemingly hinted at the breakup and rumors Britney was unfaithful. She addressed their tumultuous relationship in her 2023 memoir The Woman in Me, which was released shortly after Justin issued a public apology to his ex for how he may have played a role in the negative attention she received in the spotlight.

Justin Timberlake's Biggest Controversies Through the Years

“I am deeply sorry for the times in my life where my actions contributed to the problem, where I spoke out of turn, or did not speak up for what was right,” he wrote in a statement shared via Instagram in February 2021 following the release of the New York Times documentary Freeing Britney Spears. “The industry is flawed. It sets men, especially white men, up for success. It’s designed this way.”

Justin noted he still has “respect” for Spears despite feeling like he “failed” her, adding, “As a man in a privileged position I have to be vocal about this. Because of my ignorance, I didn’t recognize it for all that it was while it was happening in my own life but I do not want to ever benefit from others being pulled down again. I can do better and I will do better.”

Tom Sandoval Addresses Jax Taylor’s Cocaine Addiction: I Was ‘Aware’

5 March 2025 at 20:29

Tom Sandoval was “somewhat aware” fellow Vanderpump Rules alum Jax Taylor had been struggling with cocaine addiction — and thinks it’s “amazing” that he’s taking steps toward getting the help he needs. 

“I mean, I think that’s amazing,” Sandoval, 42, said on the Wednesday, March 5, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. “I ’m so proud of him, I think that’s so awesome. He really seems like he’s really been working on himself. For real. For real this time.” 

Sandoval also noted that he was “somewhat aware” of Taylor’s “problems” since the pair costarred on a Bravo series for years together, telling host Andy Cohen, “I mean, I’ve been around him over the years.”

When Cohen, 56, asked if “the cast was aware” of Taylor’s struggles, Sandoval replied, “Yea.” 

Jax Taylor Says There Were 'Signs' Hinting at His Cocaine Addiction on 'VPR'

Taylor, 45, announced on the Tuesday, March 4, episode of Alex Baskin‘s “Hot Mic” podcast that he is “an addict.”

“I have substance issues — primarily with cocaine. It’s hard to say out loud,” he said. “I’ve been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I’m 45. There was times where I would stop doing it but then there were times where I’d go heavy on it.”

Taylor, who made his Bravo debut on Vanderpump Rules in 2013, acknowledged that fans had suspected his issues over the years. “[They] could kind of tell that I was on something. Obviously production and [other] people, they didn’t know what I was doing,” he said. “Everything I was doing was on my own but I was just on that train and I couldn’t get off.”

Taylor said recently that he cut out alcohol to help him stay clean from cocaine. “People ask you, ‘Do you have an alcohol problem too?’ I don’t necessarily think I have an alcohol problem but the two go hand in hand,” Taylor said. “I can’t do cocaine without drinking. So I just gave up both. I’m proud to say I’m 83 days sober right now, which is the longest I’ve ever gone in my life without either.”

Jax Taylor Reveals Cocaine Addiction in New Interview: Biggest Takeaways

Lala Kent, who starred with Taylor and his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, on Vanderpump Rules for nearly five years, expressed her support for him on Tuesday.

“That is not easy to admit,” Kent, 34, said during an Amazon Live. “This is going to be his journey and his journey only, and he should be the only one to speak on it because none of us know what he’s been through in his life.”

Kent, who has also struggled with addiction, said she was hopeful that Taylor’s quality of life would take a turn for the better.

“Now that Jax has come out talking about his addiction, it’s a very, very delicate subject,” she said. “Sobriety for someone, it’s not one size fits all. Everyone has a different level of addiction but addiction is addiction.”

Jax Taylor Says Sandoval Has Reached Out 'More Than Anybody' Amid Divorce

Kent also voiced her support for Cartwright, 36, who shares 3-year-old son Cruz with Taylor.

“Brittany is one of my dearest friends. I know a lot,” Kent said. “I don’t know what is going to be shown on their new season of The Valley. What I do know is I’m very close with her and anything that we’ve discussed, that is her story to share.”

After Taylor’s podcast appearance, Cartwright addressed Taylor’s revelations via her Instagram Story. 

“His addiction unfortunately has done irreparable damage to my son and I,” she wrote Tuesday. “I’ve spent years trying to help him. I wish more than anyone I could say how proud I am of him today, but I’d be lying. His actions will speak for themselves.”

Kent, however, wished Taylor “nothing but the best in his sobriety” and added: “I went to a really great meeting last night that was much needed and then Scheana [Shay] texted me about Jax. Your heart feels broken, but there’s so much hope in sobriety. That’s what I’m feeling for him. Very, very hopeful and excited to see what his future holds if he chooses down this path. Absolutely amazing.”

The dynamic between Chicago P.D.’s Deputy Chief Reid and Sergeant Hank Voight is “fractured” after their most recent case — and according to actor Shawn Hatosy, it’s only going to get worse.

“I think they’re both looking over their shoulder,” Hatosy, who plays Reid, exclusively told Us Weekly, noting that the new chief will continue to butt heads with Voight (Jason Beghe).

Warning: Spoilers below for Chicago P.D. season 12, episode 15.

During the Wednesday, March 5, episode of Chicago P.D., Reid implements a Violence Reduction Initiative and enlists Voight’s Intelligence Team to help monitor a gang-infested neighborhood.

When a shooting takes place, Voight’s team jumps into action to solve the crime, and Reid makes a few calls to expedite the process.

“It sort of tests the relationship, and Hank has to face the fact that he’s dealing with somebody that is gonna go and do something because he has dirt on somebody else,” Hatosy, 49, explained of the cat-and-mouse game Reid and Voight are playing.

The actor noted that Voight learns how Reid “operates,” which “creates a little bit of a tense relationship” between the pair. Reid obtaining a search warrant in a suspicious manner raises eyebrows for Voight and “puts things in motion” for him to “go down the rabbit hole and see who this guy is,” Hatosy added.

At the end of the episode, Voight realizes that Reid has “criminals in his pocket too.” Reid admits that he’d rather have a drug dealer in charge of the neighborhood — with no violent priors on his record — than four young kids selling dope, which didn’t sit well with Voight.

Will Chicago P.D.’s Burgess Be Voight’s Right Hand After Making Detective?

“You and me, we are exactly the same,” Reid tells Voight, which prompts Voight to go to his attorney friend and vow to take Reid down.

Even though Reid knows Voight’s team was complicit in covering up Dante Torres (Benjamin Levy Aguilar) sleeping with his criminal informant, Voight is ready to take back his squad his way.

“It can’t end nicely. It has to go somewhere, and it has to blow up,” Hatosy told Us of the trajectory for Reid and Voight this season. “It’s heading in a direction where it’s gonna blow up.”

He teased, “Once things blow up, where [do] the characters go? Maybe Reid is the one that never comes back, but something has to occur where these characters are affected, and moving forward it might change them.”

When asked what Voight needs to do to come out unscathed, Hatosy confessed, “I don’t know,” adding that showrunner Gwen Sigan has been “very tight-lipped” about Reid’s endgame.

Hatosy noted, “They’ve clearly set in motion that they want to take this guy down,” but Reid is “prepared” for what’s to come.

“Him knowing Voight and what he’s capable of and how he’s gotten to where he is. It’s gonna blow up,” he explained. “It’s sort of by design, so I’m excited to see how it turns out.”

Chicago P.D. airs on NBC Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET.

2 Men Charged in Deaths of 3 Chiefs Fans 14 Months After Bodies Found

5 March 2025 at 19:11

Two men have been charged in connection with the deaths of three Kansas City Chiefs fans.

Jordan Willis and Ivory Carson were charged on Wednesday, March 5, with three counts of involuntary manslaughter and two counts of the delivery of a controlled substance, KMBC News in Kansas City, Missouri reports. Each of those charges carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. 

“People may have doubted this investigation because it has spanned more than a year,” Platte County Prosecutor Eric Zahnd stated Wednesday, according to the news station. “The Kansas City Police Department and my office do not rest on homicide cases until we have exhausted every possible resource. Today’s charges are the product of the hard work of Kansas City detectives and prosecutors over those many months.”

On January 9, 2024, the bodies of Ricky Johnson, Clayton McGeeney and David Harrington were found frozen in the backyard of Willis’ home. The three men had gathered to watch a Chiefs game at Willis’ house two days before police discovered their dead bodies. Court documents stated that they had consumed alcohol, marijuana and cocaine. 

2 Adults Charged With Murder in Kansas City Super Bowl Parade Shooting

In a press conference Wednesday, Zahnd said that McGeeney’s fiancée had worried about his whereabouts and showed up at Willis’ house and “found at least one person dead on the back patio. Temperatures had dropped below freezing the night of the Chiefs game.”

When police searched the scene, they found two plastic bags containing a white powdery substance that was later forensically identified as a mixture of cocaine and fentanyl. Willis and Carson were linked to the drugs via DNA evidence, and an investigation identified Carson as the primary drug supplier. He admitted he had sold cocaine to Johnson, McGeeney and Harrington prior to their deaths. 

On January 12, 2024, a medical examiner revealed that the three had died of fentanyl and cocaine combined toxicity. 

Carson is being held in county jail on Wednesday and Willis is expected to surrender to authorities. Willis intends to post a $100,000 bond for his release, Zahnd stated. 

Most Shocking Celebrity Deaths of All Time

There were no details on when Willis and Carson will appear in court. 

“This case is a tragic reminder of the dangers of street drugs,” Zahnd said. “But make no mistake. The people who supply those drugs can and will be held accountable when people overdose.”

The prosecutor added, “The sad part of these cases is we’re not able to ask [the victims] what happened that night.”

Summer House’s Paige DeSorbo Says Kyle's ‘Two Faced’ Amid Craig Feud

5 March 2025 at 19:01
Summer House Recap Paige Says Kyle s Two Faced Amid Craig Feud History s Repeating Itself 759

Paige DeSorbo didn’t mince words when confronting Kyle Cooke about his rage texts on the latest Summer House episode.

During the Wednesday, March 5, episode of the Bravo series, Paige, 32, called out Kyle, 42, for “rage texting” her earlier in the week about then-boyfriend Craig Conover and BFF Hannah Berner. (Paige and Craig, 36, called it quits in November 2024 after three years together.)

“I don’t even care about the Hannah stuff. What I’m saying is, history’s repeating itself again,” Paige claimed, referring to Kyle and Hannah’s falling out during season 5 of Summer House, which led to Hannah and Kyle’s wife, Amanda Batula, no longer being friends.

Paige alleged at a group dinner that Kyle coming for Craig over the Southern Charm star investing in a rival drink company felt too familiar. “It’s just a new player and now it’s Craig. And now you two aren’t going to be friends,” Paige argued. “Then it’s again me and Amanda there to pick up the pieces.”

The fashion correspondent then vowed, “I’ll be damned if I let what happened to Hannah and Amanda happen to me and Amanda.”

Kyle claimed that he was upset because Hannah, 33, had recently accused him of getting her fired from Summer House during a podcast appearance in summer 2024. He alleged that her remarks were tainting his image and his business. (Paige, meanwhile, hadn’t made any comments about the allegations.)

He further alleged that Craig was spreading “lies” about Kyle giving Craig a chance to “counter” his Spritz Society investment with an opportunity to work with Kyle’s company, Loverboy.

“If he presented it the way he described that would be one thing. He’s a f—ing liar,” Kyle said. “I’m happy to talk to Craig. I thought we were closer than this.” Paige fired back, “I thought we were closer than you just texting me just berating my boyfriend and my best friend.”

Paige DeSorbo Reveals Where She Stands With Kyle Cooke After Rage Texts

As Paige went to leave the table, she told Kyle that it was like déjà vu now that she was in the middle of him and Craig. (She has remained friends with both Amanda, 33, and Hannah since their fallout.)

“We’re fighting because Craig did something with another drink company,” she yelled, mumbling under her breath, “F— you dude, your ego’s out of control.”

Kyle told the rest of the group that he texted Paige to ask her, “Do you believe this too?” about how Hannah left the series, noting, “I feel like she’s being two faced.”

When Paige heard Kyle call her two faced, she went off.  “I’m actually an adult. I was able to maintain a friendship with Hannah, never speak ill of your wife, and then maintain a friendship with Amanda, never speaking ill of Hannah,” she screamed back. “That’s actually being mature and an adult.”

Paige then accused Kyle of being the one in the wrong. “What you do is two faced. Texting rage texting me and then acting like it’s all good,” she quipped.

While Amanda tried to calm Kyle down, he didn’t stop. He alleged that Hannah’s comments about her allegedly being fired after she did an “ad for Truly Seltzer” and it reportedly “annoyed” Kyle, who owns a rival alcohol brand, was “slander.”

Paige feared that Kyle and Craig’s feud would blur into her relationship with Amanda, crying to Ciara Miller, “I’ve been in this situation before and I’m trying not to be in it. Amanda and Hannah not being friends anymore was the worst. I still get upset about it.”

Amanda, meanwhile, went into Paige’s room and gave her a big hug. They both said “I love you” and noted that they didn’t want to “fight” with each other. “It makes me so sad, Amanda. I think all the time I wish you and Hannah were friends again,” Paige confessed, noting, “I don’t even want to fight with Kyle.”

Amanda Batula Thinks Craig Is Being a Bit 'Ridiculous' About Paige Breakup

Amanda admitted that her husband was “f—ing stupid” and they two have had fights over this “stuff.”

“In moments like this I can’t even talk him off the ledge,” Amanda said of Kyle in a confessional. “I know that Craig’s actions have affected Kyle and affected Loverboy but the way Kyle’s reacting to it isn’t doing him any favors.”

The next morning, Kyle told Amanda he felt like “a fish out of water” and he was “sorry for making things more awkward for you.”

Amanda pointed out that although he was upset, putting Paige in the middle was “unfair” to her. The episode ended with Kyle pulling Paige aside at the beach to talk to her about their drama.

Since filming wrapped, Kyle and Craig have made amends, with Kyle exclusively telling Us Weekly in October 2024 they are “good.”

Paige, meanwhile, exclusively told Us on Tuesday, March 4, that she and Kyle have a “brother-sister relationship.” She insisted that they are “fine” and both know, “we’re not gonna not be friends.”

Summer House airs on Bravo Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Are Not Interested in Rekindling Romance

5 March 2025 at 18:27
Ben Affleck Is Not Interested in Rekindling Romance With Ex-Wife Jennifer Garner

Ben Affleck and ex-wife Jennifer Garner are not looking to get back together.

A source tells Us Weekly that Affleck and Garner, both 52, are “good friends” and any rumors of a romance between them are “ridiculous.”

Following his recent divorce from Jennifer Lopez, Affleck’s priorities remain on his family and his career — not dating — and both he and Garner are focused on coparenting their three children, Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13.

Speculation about a rekindling began when Affleck and Garner were spotted spending more time together after the actor’s split from Lopez, 55, last year.  (Affleck and Lopez, who wed in July 2022, finalized their divorce in January.)

Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner Reunite at Kids' Play After J. Lo Divorce

Garner and Affleck, who were previously married for a decade before their 2015 split, have been seen out and about together multiple times over the past few months, including at functions that involve their kids. The parents were recently photographed together at Samuel’s 13th paintball-themed birthday party, all smiles as they walked together and held paintball gear including camouflage vests and face masks.

Several reports surfaced that Affleck and Garner’s connection could turn romantic again, however, the outcome is unlikely: the actress has been happily dating businessman John Miller since 2018.

“Everything is fine with John and Jen,” a second insider exclusively told Us earlier this month amid rumors that Miller, 47, was jealous of Garner spending more time with her ex-husband. “Those close to them haven’t heard of any issues.”

While Garner and Affleck have long since called it quits on their romance, the pair have maintained a close bond as exes. Throughout his divorce from Lopez, Garner was by Affleck’s side.

“Ben and Jennifer are friends, and they have a great coparenting relationship,” an additional insider exclusively told Us of the duo in August 2024, noting that the exes have a “mutual understanding that their kids come first.”

Jennifer Garner and John Miller Spotted Together in Rare Appearance

The source added that Affleck had “confided in Jen in a lot of ways.”

“There’s a deep level of trust and respect between them,” the source explained at the time, adding that Affleck and Garner’s past has helped him through his relationship woes with Lopez.

Affleck and Garner also spent this past Thanksgiving with their children and even volunteered together with the charity organization Midnight Mission.

Rebecca Minkoff and Daughter Bowie Join Us at JAKKS Pacific Celebration

5 March 2025 at 18:01

Fashion designer Rebecca Minkoff and her 9-year-old daughter, Bowie Lou Bellour, had an adorable mother-daughter date night at the JAKKS Pacific Tote-ily Teenies Celebration.

Minkoff, 42, stepped out alongside her daughter, whom she shares with husband Gavin Bellour, to celebrate the launch of the brand’s Disney ily 4EVER Tote-ily Teenies. Minkoff, who hosted the occasion on Tuesday, March 4, also watched in awe as Bowie made her runway debut in the accompanying fashion show.

The Tote-ily totes come packed with an effortlessly stylish Teenie doll that has its own Disney-inspired wardrobe and a stable of curated accessories. In particular, the Teenies draw inspiration from beloved Disney characters of Ariel, Aurora, Bambi, Belle, Cruella, Elsa, Rapunzel, Stitch, Tinkerbell, Toy Story and Minnie Mouse.

Not only are the Teenies stylish collectibles, but its carrying case (or totes) perfectly complements the aesthetic. The Tote-ily Teenies tote is equally stylish, featuring enough space to carry the toys and accessories. The outside, resembling that of a brand-name handbag, pops in a bright color from the Disney ily 4EVER color scheme.

Breaking Down Rebecca Minkoff's Fashion Impact Before Joining 'RHONY' 

“These charms are everything right now,” Minkoff exclusively told Us Weekly of the Disney-centric tote hanging off her own handbag. “I thought it was fitting that we had this cutest, little Tote-ily Teenies Stitch charm on the outside [of] my bag. What else?”

Minkoff, for her part, is a self-proclaimed “minimalist” and doesn’t overpack her purse.

“I’ve got my wallet, I have my phone that I let [Bowie] use,” the Real Housewives of New York City alum quipped on Tuesday. “I have Altoids, I have Two-Faced mascara, a little lipliner and my AirPods — and that’s kind of it. Keeping it simple.”

During the JAKKS Pacific event, Bowie walked away with her own Tote-ily collectible — and let Us peek inside.

“It’s the Stitch Tote-ily Teenie,” Bowie said. “I love it because it’s really cute and I love the Lilo and Stitch movie.”

According to Minkoff, both the Tote-ily tote and the Teenie doll are “so adorable.

The Tote-ily Teenies are each inspired by a different Disney character. The doll comes dressed in a trendy outfit befitting its animated muse and comes with an accompanying stand, fine-tooth comb and accessories such as a miniature Tote-ily tote and a tiny pair of sunglasses.

The Disney ily 4EVER Tote-ily Teenies are available now in Target stores and recently launched in Wal-Mart stores on Monday, March 3.

The Masked Singer’s Bat Flies Away During Group B Premiere

5 March 2025 at 18:01
The Masked Singer s Bat Flies Away During Group B Premiere And Gets Revealed as Spoiler

This post contains spoilers for The Masked Singer season 13, episode 4.

It’s all happening — on The Masked Singer, where Scheana Shay was just revealed as Bat.

Shay, 39, was unmasked during the Wednesday, March 5, episode of the Fox competition series on Voices of Olympus night. The Vanderpump Rules alum performed a cover of Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” but was eliminated ahead of fellow Group B contestants Space Ranger, Pearl, Boogie Woogie and Griffin.

“I’m becoming Bat because I’m a creature of the night and a bit of a badass,” Shay began in her clue package. “Like bats, I am one of the most misunderstood creatures ever. I’ve been forever villainized, constantly portrayed as a bloodsucking backstabber. And to that I say, ‘Ew, get over it.’ I am so not that bat!”

'The Masked Singer' Season 13 Kicks Off With a ‘VPR’ Connection: Sneak Peek

The next portion of Bat’s package referenced her classic single “Good as Gold” as well as her time on Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules.

“My real friends know I actually have a heart of gold,” she said. “I’ve just been surrounded by a bunch of lunatics, and for years, all my words have been twisted upside down.”

To comply with the evening’s Voices of Olympus theme, Bat said she was “leaning into Dionysus, the god of partying to show there’s nothing wrong with letting your hair down.”

After her performance, Bat hinted that she’d interacted with panelist Jenny McCarthy before, saying, “It’s been a minute since I’ve seen you, Jenny.” This appeared to be a reference to the fact that McCarthy, 52, once interviewed Shay on her radio show in 2015.

'The Masked Singer' Winners Through the Years: Where Are They Now?

Bat also teased host Nick Cannon by revealing that they “actually spent a holiday together this year.” This clue was seemingly a nod to last Easter, when Shay and Cannon, 44, volunteered with the Los Angeles Mission to provide hot meals to the people of Skid Row.

Finally, Bat’s “Crack the Case” clue was a pair of gold hoop earrings. She explained them by saying, “Gold is just a part of every major life event I’ve had, including the debut of my first single.”

While Vanderpump Rules fans might have figured it out, the judges were stumped. McCarthy thought Bat could be The Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen, while Ken Jeong guessed The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Lisa Rinna. Robin Thicke and Rita Ora stayed in the Bravo universe too, throwing out Real Housewives of New York City alum Bethenny Frankel’s name.

Bravolebrities are frequent guesses on The Masked Singer, but in 13 seasons, Shay is only the fourth one to ever appear on the show (and only the second Vanderpump Rules star). The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Kandi Burruss kicked things off in season 3 when she won as Night Angel. Season 10, meanwhile, featured RHONY’s Luann de Lesseps as Hibiscus and VPR’s Tom Sandoval as Diver.

The Masked Singer airs on Fox Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET. New episodes stream the next day on Hulu.

Heather Jokes Christina Should Bring Ex Josh Back as 'Flip Off' Finale Judge

5 March 2025 at 17:59
Heather El Moussa Jokes Christina Haack Should Bring Ex Josh Hall Back as Flip Off Finale Judge

Just because Christina Haack‘s estranged husband, Josh Hall, left The Flip Off one episode in doesn’t mean his name didn’t come up when discussing potential judges.

During the Wednesday, March 5, finale, Heather El Moussa asked whether Christina, 41, chose her judge yet, to which she replied, “I haven’t picked him yet. Maybe it is a him. I haven’t gotten a yes yet.”

Heather, 37, subsequently joked that Christina “should bring Josh back,” but Christina wasn’t as interested in reuniting with her ex on the hit HGTV series. Instead, Christina’s dream judge Jeff Lewis made an appearance and asked her about her personal life.

“You [and Josh] weren’t aligned,” Jeff noted about Christina and Josh’s journey as professional and personal partners. “Obviously you are a very attractive and successful woman, I am sure you are going to date a lot. But do we have to marry them all?”

Every Time Christina Haack Threw Shade at Ex Josh Hall on 'The Flip Off'

Christina reassured Jeff that there would be “no more marriages.” Despite the promise, Jeff still poked fun when she called later in the episode with good news.

“You got married again,” he quipped, to which Christina said, “That would not be good news.”

Before The Flip Off, Christina got her start on Flip or Flop with then-husband Tarek El Moussa. The former couple worked on the show during their marriage — which lasted from 2009 to 2018 — and after their divorce was finalized.

Christina moved on with Ant Anstead, which led to them collaborating on Christina on the Coast before their relationship fizzled out. After her divorce from Ant, 45, Christina moved on with Josh, 44. They even started as costars on The Flip Off before Josh left after one episode amid their split.

Christina subsequently filed for divorce in July 2024 and has since been dating Christopher LaRocca. She remained on the HGTV series solo but ultimately didn’t end up the winner during Wednesday’s finale.

The loss didn’t stop Christina from celebrating the chance to share the screen with Tarek, 43, and Heather.

“It’s much easier to film with someone when you don’t have to go home with them. It’s not usually a good idea to film with a spouse,” Christina exclusively told Us Weekly in January about working with Tarek and Heather. “Josh was very hard to film with. He didn’t get it.”

She continued: “He’d always get upset with me, like ‘Oh, my gosh, you did this’ or ‘You did that.’ And I’m like, ‘I’m making a TV show.’ Ultimately, it was better that he left after episode one because the show would’ve sucked.”

Christina made it clear that calling off the show was never an option.

Every 'The Flip Off' Scene That Hinted at Christina Haack, Josh Hall's Split

“This isn’t Josh’s show. No one’s going to miss that he’s not in it,” she continued. “Josh is not a TV host, he’s not a house flipper, he’s not a designer. He was just my husband in it. With Tarek, we built everything together, and I still have respect for him. I have no respect for Josh.”

Josh addressed his departure with an Instagram Story post in January, which read, “TFW you can’t get enough ratings with celebrity 🏠designers so you manufactured drama with me, a nobody. @hgtv, you’ve changed.”

In response, Christina replied via her own Instagram Story, “Manufactured?! Pretty sure no one at Hgtv told you to be rude to me. … That was all natural.”

The Flip Off is available to stream on Max and Discovery+.

‘Summer House’ Season 9 Paige and Craig Moments Didn’t Age Well

5 March 2025 at 17:00

Bravo cameras caught Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover’s final summer together before they called it quits.

During Summer House season 9, episode 3, which aired on February 26, Paige revealed that she was thinking about freezing her eggs, noting that then-boyfriend Craig had already frozen his sperm. (While Summer House filmed in July-August 2024, Paige broke up with Craig that November after three years of dating.)

“I said to him, ‘I should probably freeze my eggs.’ And he goes, ‘Oh should I freeze my sperm?’” she recalled, adding that when Craig got tested, he was “perfectly fine.” She teased, “If anything, [he was] above average.”

Paige’s remarks about having a possible family with Craig aren’t the only comments that have Us doing a double take watching this season unfold.

During the season 9 premiere, which aired on February 12, Paige recounted her recent trip to Italy with Craig and her family. “It was so nice. Craig came, like, four or five days in,” she told Ciara Miller, teasing, “Me and my brother just ganged up on Craig the whole time. Every time he talked, we’d be like, ‘Shut up Craig!’”

Paige got real about eventual road to motherhood during the season premiere after castmate Lindsay Hubbard revealed her pregnancy. (Lindsay welcomed her first baby, daughter Gemma, in December 2024.)

“I think in my very younger years I had very rose-colored glasses on of like, ‘And then you get a job and you get married and you have a baby,’” Paige told the cameras. “I also used to go in a tanning. You grow up and you learn things.”

She confessed, “Craig is ready to get married and have a baby and I’m still … not.”

In a moment that actually makes more sense knowing that they pulled the plug on their romance, Paige gave fans a little insight into her long-distance relationship with Craig during the February 19 episode. After the pair went back and forth over FaceTime about their schedules — and inability to fly to each other’s homes — Paige explained their dynamic was no longer the same.

“Mark the day, ‘cause I’m gonna say it,” Paige said during a confessional. “I feel a little bad for Craig because I am a completely different person than the girl he started dating three years ago.”

She noted, “I’m busier. I’m not around as much. I’ve changed my mind [on] a lot of things.” Paige pointed to “marriage and moving and a baby” as things she’s flip-flopped on since she and Craig started dating.

“I’m not going to apologize that my life got busier and that I think differently on certain topics,” Paige continued. “But also, I am trying to recognize that I changed a lot.”

During season 9, episode 2, Paige shared that Lindsay’s pregnancy was “giving me anxiety” about her own relationship. “Let’s just put it in perspective. Craig and I started dating then Lindsay and Carl [Radke] started dating,” she recalled. “Then they got engaged. Then they planned a wedding. Then they called off a wedding.”

Paige continued: “Then [Lindsay] got a new boyfriend. Then she got pregnant and I’m still dating Craig. So, I’m feeling stressed that I have to have a baby, and I don’t want to do it.”

“Craig’s been ready for a family and for me to move into his home since literally the day he texted me,” Paige revealed during the February 26 episode. “But I have worked for this exact moment in my career for 10 plus years.”

She reflected on her past goals, saying, “Trust me, I wanted to be in the bed. I wanted to be taken care of. I would’ve loved to have just married a man and said, ‘And now I’m done,’ but that’s not where I’m at.”

Summer House airs on Bravo Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET.

Complete with her pup in hand, Jennie Garth just totally slayed cozy, rich mom style with a beige coat look we found for just $60!

On February 4, the I Choose Me podcast host and iconic actress was spotted braving the chilly New York City air. She managed to find a chic way to combine coziness with effortless style, pairing a knit maxi dress with brown suede platform Uggs and an oversized tan peacot coat. The combination already nailed the viral rich mom aesthetic, but Garth then finished the look with one of the cutest accessories we’ve seen: Her chihuahua pup, who sported a navy sweater.

While the 90210 star’s exact coat style hasn’t come across our desk yet, we’re stealing her look by picking up this affordable alternative — which happens to be an Amazon bestseller!

YouTube star Andrew Cross died on Tuesday, March 4, after being taken off life support following injuries sustained by a car accident. He was 36.

Cross, who was an outdoor adventure guide, sustained a traumatic brain injury on January 31 after getting in a car accident. He remained hospitalized for just over a month before his family decided to take him off life support.

“Andrew’s spirit is free, surrounded by light & love,” his sister, Jenna, wrote on Tuesday via a CaringBridge site created to give fans an update on his health battle. “He went to be with the Lord today.”

She called her brother’s passing a “peaceful” moment “full of love in the room” as Cross’ wife, Evelyn, was “by his side” as were his parents and close friends.

“It’s a big loss for all of us, and we’re immensely grateful for your steadfast support and prayers,” Jenna wrote. “Throughout all of this, it’s been our heart to stay full of faith, so we wouldn’t look back and wonder ‘what if …’ 🙏🏼 Thank you for walking in that with us.”

Jenna noted that before the family removed Cross from life support, the doctors had put him on a mobile ventilator. The YouTuber was then looped around the whole ICU “while all the available staff lined the hallway as a way to honor him.”

“Then in the room, friends & family read scripture, prayed, and sang during the process of removing life support and for over an hour afterwards,” she shared. “It was peaceful and beautiful.”

Speaking on behalf of his loved ones, Jenna wrote, “Andrew really lived life to the fullest, and his story & impact isn’t over yet. It’s been wonderful to get to know him in new ways as we’ve seen photos and stories shared by so many. We look forward to more of that as we honor a life well lived.”

Cross, who was known as “Desert Drifter” to his followers, had over 400,000 subscribers to his YouTube page. As a content creator, he shared videos about “exploration and adventure with a historical twist,” per his bio.

His work had more than 68 million views since joining the platform in November 2023.

Following his accident in late January, Cross’ wife, Evelyn, took over his YouTube page to tell his followers about his injury.

“Friday night, Andrew was in a really bad accident. He is currently in the intensive care unit fighting for his life from a really severe brain injury,” she said in the video posted on February 2.

Evelyn explained, “This community has really, really meant a lot to him and to both of us over the past year. … For those of you who feel comfortable praying for him, please pray for him. For those of you who feel comfortable sending good thoughts, please send those too.”

The family also created a GoFundMe page to help with their medical expenses. At the time of Cross’ death, the page had reached $479,491 in donations.
