Jack Osbourne Pays Tribute After Dad Ozzy Osbourne's Final Concert

5 July 2025 at 22:11

Jack Osbourne paid tribute following his father Ozzy Osbourne’s final live performance with Black Sabbath on Saturday, July 5.

Ozzy, 76, headlined the Back to the Beginning festival at Villa Park in Aston, Birmingham with a five-song solo set — including classic tracks “Mr. Crowley” and “Crazy Train” — and was then joined by original Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward for four more songs — “War Pigs,” “N.I.B.,” “Iron Man,” and “Paranoid”— to finish the night. Following his Parkinson’s disease diagnosis in 2019, Ozzy was seated in a throne throughout his set in front of a reported 42,000 fans.

“It’s so good to be on this f****** stage, you have no idea,” Osbourne told his fans. “Let the madness begin!”

His son Jack, 39, followed up the star-studded concert by sharing vintage footage of his father bringing him up on stage as a child.

 

“For everything I learned along the way…the final Good Night We Love You All,” Jack wrote via Instagram on Saturday.

Jack’s sister, Kelly Osbourne, and his mother, Sharon Osbourne, documented the day by sharing their own behind-the-scenes photos and videos from Back to the Beginning. (Ozzy and Sharon are also parents to 41-year-old daughter Aimee, but she did not post anything related to the concert via her social media.)

Dozens of punk, hard rock and heavy metal legends converged on Birmingham for one of the most impressive concert lineups in music history. Ozzy was supported by mini-sets from Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, Alice in Chains, Slayer and Fred Durst, among many others.

There were medleys performed by one-off supergroups, including Travis Barker jamming with Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and The Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood. Barker’s wife, Kourtney Kardashian, shared footage of the drummer performing a cover of Black Sabbath’s “Symptom of the Universe” to express her pride over his involvement with the event.

The Osbournes announced that they were working on one final Black Sabbath show in February, to take place in Ozzy’s hometown of Birmingham. Proceeds from the event benefited the Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorn Children’s Hospice.

“It’s my time to go Back to the Beginning. … It’s time for me to give back to the place where I was born,” Ozzy said in a statement at the time. “How blessed am I to do it with the help of people whom I love. Birmingham is the true home of metal. Birmingham Forever.”

Ozzy retired from touring in 2023, following his diagnosis with Parkinson’s disease and a severe spinal injury. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee recently confirmed on his Sirius XM radio show that he is no longer able to walk, but vowed not to let that stop him from performing for his hometown fans one last time.

“I do weights [and] bike riding, I’ve got a guy living at my house who’s working with me,” Ozzy told The Guardian in May. “It’s tough. I’ve been laid up for such a long time. I’ve been lying on my back doing nothing and the first thing to go is your strength. It’s, like, starting all over again.”

He went on, “I have problems walking. I also get blood pressure issues from blood clots on my legs. I’m used to doing two hours on stage, jumping and running around. I don’t think I’ll be doing much jumping or running around this time. I may be sitting down.”

Ozzy started his career with Black Sabbath in the late 1960s, before going solo in 1979. He has sold over 100 million albums throughout his career, and is a member of the U.K. Music Hall of Fame.

Sophia Hutchins May Have Been 'Speeding' Before Deadly ATV Crash: Report

5 July 2025 at 21:08

Sophia Hutchins, Caitlyn Jenner’s friend and manager, was reportedly speeding while driving an ATV before her deadly crash in Malibu on Wednesday, July 2.

It was reported that Hutchins was riding the ATV near her friend and client Jenner’s Malibu home when she struck a car on Wednesday morning. The collision reportedly caused the ATV and Hutchins to plunge 350 feet into a nearby ravine, where she was later pronounced dead at the scene. (Hutchins was 29 years old.)

Sergeant Eduardo Saucedo, of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Malibu / Lost Hills division, has since told The Daily Mail that Hutchins was driving a black and blue-colored 2013 Polaris utility vehicle when she collided with a gray 2016 Mazda 6. (The two women in the Mazda were not hurt.)

“It looks like she may have been speeding and rear-ended the other car, the other party, and then that caused her to veer to the right and go off the cliff,” Saucedo clarified. “It doesn’t seem like she was following them. I think she just came up on them and then hit the car.”

Saucedo suggested that Hutchins could have been trying to “maneuver” around the Mazda at the time of the crash.

“She was going too fast and just ended up clipping the rear end of that Mazda, causing her to veer off and go off the cliff there,” the officer theorized.

The officer confirmed that Jenner did visit the accident site as the investigation was underway. Investigators initially reportedly had to leave the damaged ATV in the ravine because local tow trucks did not have the necessary equipment to haul it back up the cliff.

Saucedo suggested that the investigators would wait for the coroner’s department to prepare a toxicology report before determining whether or not Hutchins was impaired while behind the wheel.

Us Weekly has reached out to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department for comment.

Hutchins lived at Jenner’s Malibu home, where she also worked out of a converted guest house. She originally appeared on Jenner’s 2015 docuseries I Am Cait before becoming the athlete’s business manager. (Hutchins graduated from Pepperdine University with a degree in economics and finance in 2019.)

Jenner and Hutchins frequently denied that they were romantically involved. During a 2019 Good Morning Britain interview with Piers Morgan, she objected to questions about whether or not she and Jenner were “an item.”

“We have a really special relationship. I don’t think we need to be an item to have a really special relationship, so to speak,” she replied. “I am here for Caitlyn 1,000 percent and Caitlyn’s here for me 1,000 percent. I think the best way to describe our relationship is that we are partners in every sense of the word. When it comes to work, absolutely there for each other 100 percent. When it comes to family and our personal relationship, absolutely there for each other 100 percent and there’s no denying it.”

Most Shocking Celebrity Deaths of All Time

Jenner subsequently told The Times U.K. in October 2023 that she was “very single” and was “not even close” to looking for a relationship.

“I’ll never have a relationship in the future,” she explained. “I just don’t see that in my life. I am not looking for that.”

As part of her working partnership with Jenner, Hutchins negotiated the former Keeping Up with the Kardashians star’s involvement with the British reality show I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! in 2019 and also secured her frequent corporate speeches.

Kourtney Kardashian Supports Travis Barker During Huge U.K. Concert

5 July 2025 at 20:52

Kourtney Kardashian took pride in her husband, Travis Barker, performing at Ozzy Osbourne’s final concert on Saturday, July 5.

“That’s my husband,” Kardashian, 46, beamed via her Instagram Story, alongside footage of Barker drumming.

Kardashian shared footage of Barker, 49, rocking out behind the drum kit while he covered Black Sabbath’s “Symptom of the Universe” alongside two other legendary drummers — Danny Carey, of Tool and Skinny Puppy, and Chad Smith, of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Barker was one of dozens of punk, hard rock and heavy metal icons taking part in the Back to the Beginning festival at Villa Park in Aston, Birmingham, on Saturday. The special concert was promoted as Osbourne’s final performance with Black Sabbath following years of health woes. (Osbourne was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in February 2019 and subsequently had to retire from touring due to a variety of physical ailments.)

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s Relationship Timeline

Later, the Blink-182 member joined in on a medley of hard rock classics as part of a supergroup. He drummed on the blues standard “Train Kept A-Rollin'” with Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and contributed to a cover of Osbourne’s 1983 hit “Bark at the Moon” with Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt and Ghost vocalist Tobias Forge (a.k.a. Papa Emeritus).

Barker shared several photos and videos from the event via his own Instagram Story, including a sneak peek at him hanging out with Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood backstage.

Earlier in the day, Kardashian revealed she’d accompanied her husband to the U.K. for the Back to the Beginning festival by sharing a look at their tea service. A pair of sunglasses and one of her children’s WWE action figures lingered in the background, as Kardashian drew attention to her “butter yellow” nail tips.

Kourtney was the only one of her sisters not to attend Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s star-studded wedding in Venice, Italy, last weekend. (Kris Jenner was in attendance for the gala alongside daughters Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner.)

Despite missing out on the wedding of the year, Kourtney seemingly had plenty of fun of her own as she posed in an oversized gray suit and a white dress shirt for a beach party.

Kourtney and Travis also recently brought their son Rocky along for a family outing at the WWE’s Money in the Bank event in Los Angeles. The Kardashians star cradled her baby boy as the cameras spotted the family sitting in the Intuit Dome. (Kourtney shares Rocky with Barker and has three children with ex Scott Disick: 15-year-old Mason, 12-year-old Penelope, and 10-year-old Reign. She is also a stepmother to Barker’s son Landon, 21, daughter Alabama, 19, and his stepdaughter, Atiana, 25,)

Elsewhere, Kourtney raised eyebrows during an appearance on her sister Khloé’s “Khloé in Wonder Land” podcast in May when she questioned why kids are required to go to school.

“Let’s say the school system. I’ll think, ‘Why do kids f****** go to school?’ Truly, it’s so dated,” Kourtney declared.

She went on, “I’ll start thinking, and then like, you know, my kids will send me videos about, like, ‘Why do kids go to (school)?’ It’ll be like, really successful people, and they’ll be like, ‘My kids never go to school and they’re never going to’ and whatever. And then I’m like, ‘OK, what’s the goal here? You want to do homeschool? Let’s do it.’”

Khloé backed up her sister’s hot take, insisting she has always been a “homeschool person.” (Khloé shares 7-year-old daughter True and 2-year-old son Tatum with ex Tristan Thompson.)

Former World Series Champion Bobby Jenks is Dead at Age 44

5 July 2025 at 18:14

Former Chicago White Sox pitcher and 2005 World Series champion Bobby Jenks died from cancer at age 44 on July 4.

Major League Baseball confirmed that Jenks passed away in Sintra, Portugal, where he was undergoing treatment for an advanced form of adenocarcinoma, a type of stomach cancer. He is survived by his second wife, Eleni Tzitzivacos, and their children, Zeno and Kate, as well as four children — Cuma, Nolan, Rylan and Jackson — from his previous marriage to Adele Romkee.

“​​Former Chicago White Sox All-Star pitcher and 2005 World Series Champion Bobby Jenks passed away yesterday, July 4, in Sintra, Portugal, where he had been battling adenocarcinoma, a form of stomach cancer. He was 44 years old,” the White Sox confirmed via X on Saturday, July 4.

White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf also mourned the loss of “an iconic member of the White Sox family.”

11 Shocking Celebrity Deaths and In Memoriam Tributes

“None of us will ever forget that ninth inning of Game 4 in Houston, all that Bobby did for the 2005 World Series champions and for the entire Sox organization during his time in Chicago,” Reinsdorf, 89, added. “He and his family knew cancer would be his toughest battle, and he will be missed as a husband, father, friend, and teammate. He will forever hold a special place in all our hearts.”

Jenks helped end the White Sox’ 88-year World Series championship drought by delivering a scoreless ninth ending against the Houston Astros in Game Four in 2005. (Prior to their World Series win in 2005, the White Sox had not won the league’s championship since 1917.)

Former White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen referred to Jenks as “one of [his] all-time favorite players” following the announcement of the pitcher’s death.

“I loved that man,” Guillen said. “This is a very sad day for everyone involved with the White Sox. Everyone remembers the moment when I called for the big fella in the World Series, so the bobblehead of that moment will be a great way to keep that moment alive for White Sox fans.”

The former White Sox manager went on, “Everyone has a favorite story about Bobby, so the 2005 reunion [from July 11-13] will be a great opportunity to get together with all his teammates and coaches and relive some of our greatest memories of him.”

Jenks’ historic MLB career included holding the league’s record for retiring consecutive batters, at 41, and he was also a two-time All-Star. He pitched for the White Sox from 2005 to 2010 and then finished out his career with the Boston Red Sox in 2011.

He later worked as pitching coach and general manager for the Grand Junction Rockies, as part of MLB’s Pioneer developmental league. He coached for the Princeton WhistlePigs and the Windy City ThunderBolts as well.

Jenks announced his stomach cancer diagnosis in February during an interview with MLB.com from his hospital bed in Portugal. He confirmed that doctors discovered a tumor in his chest after a CT scan, with cancer ultimately spreading to his stomach lining, lower back, hips and bones.

“Now it’s time to do what I got to do to get myself better and get myself more time, however you want to look at it,” Jenks said at the time. “I’ll tell you one thing: I’m not going to die here in Portugal.”

Most Shocking Celebrity Deaths of All Time

He continued, “They are not going to put any numbers on it. I wouldn’t even want numbers. You hear stories all the time, ‘Oh, they gave me six months, 25 years ago.’ I don’t buy into that. Whatever happens is going to happen regardless.”

Jenks and his family’s difficulties were compounded when their Pacific Palisades, California home was lost in the Palisades Fire in January. Jenks managed to save his World Series but lost all other memorabilia from his career.

“I’ve got one suitcase left to my name,” Jenks admitted. “It’s all gone. Everything else I’ve ever done. I have everything, first to first. All those things are irreplaceable.”

Remembering Julian McMahon and Shannen Doherty's Romance After Deaths

5 July 2025 at 17:14

Julian McMahon and Shannen Doherty briefly dated during the making of their classic TV series Charmed.

Tragically, the Charmed costars died within one year of each other after they both battled cancer. Doherty passed away at 53 in July 2024, while McMahon’s death was confirmed nearly one year later on July 4, 2025. The actor was 56.

The former couple reportedly got together during Charmed’s third season in 2001, which turned out to be Doherty’s last playing Prue Halliwell. At the time, Doherty’s departure – and the on-screen death of her character – were blamed partially on off-screen tension with costar Alyssa Milano, who played Prue’s sister, Phoebe Halliwell. (Rose McGowan was eventually cast as a long lost Halliwell sister, Paige, to essentially replace Doherty’s Prue.)

Doherty and McMahon’s dating situation during Charmed season 3 may have been especially complicated since McMahon played Milano’s on-screen love interest, Cole Turner. McMahon was also going through a divorce from first wife, Baywatch star Brooke Burns, at the time.

Charmed’s Finola Hughes Remembers ‘Warrior’ Shannen Doherty: ‘She Fought’

Doherty addressed the tense Charmed set environment during a December 2023 interview with former costar Holly Marie Combs on her “Let’s Be Clear with Shannen Doherty” podcast. Combs briefly acknowledged Doherty and McMahon’s relationship as she discussed the events that led up to Doherty being dropped from Charmed in 2001.

“You know, [Brian Krause, who played Leo] and [Alyssa] were dating at the time when this all went down, which, to me, us being completely oblivious, to me was the worst part,” Combs said. “Where, it was all sort of part of this plan that was happening and unfolding through over months. It was months of that year. You were dating Julian [McMahon]. So you guys were off in that world. Brian was off with Alyssa.”

Away from the Charmed set, Doherty and McMahon played lovers in the 2001 TV movie Another Day. In the film, Doherty’s character Kate developed feelings for childhood friend David (McMahon) after mysteriously being sent back in time to two days before her late boyfriend Paul’s death in a fire.

McMahon and Doherty were reportedly already split up by the time Another Day premiered. Having previously been married to actor Ashley Hamilton in the 1990s, Doherty wed poker player Rick Salomon in 2002, though they were granted an annulment the following year. (Salomon went on to promote a sex tape that he shot with ex-girlfriend Paris Hilton, and was later married to Pamela Anderson twice, between 2007 and 2008 and again between 2014 and 2015.)

Doherty married her third husband, photographer ​​Kurt Iswarienko, in 2011. They announced their split in April 2023, but their divorce was not finalized until hours before Doherty’s death from breast cancer in July 2024.

Meanwhile, McMahon’s first marriage was with Australian pop star Dannii Minogue between 1994 and 1995. Following his divorce from second wife Burns in 2001, he tied the knot with third wife Kelly Paniagua in 2014 and was with her until his death.

Shannen Doherty's Life in Photos

McMahon’s family confirmed on July4 that he died following a private battle with an unspecified form of cancer. His former Charmed costar Combs mourned McMahon by expressing hope that he would reconnect with Doherty in the afterlife.

“One of a kind is an understatement,” Combs remembered via Instagram. “Your unyielding zest for life and crazy making sense of humor will be sorely missed. The joy and laughter you were the direct cause of will always be remembered.”

She then referenced Doherty in writing, “I hope you find our lady friend and dance in those rose petals.”

McMahon is survived by his third wife Paniagua and 25 year-old daughter Madison, who was born during his marriage to Burns.

“With an open heart, I wish to share with the world that my beloved husband, Julian McMahon, died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer,” his wife, Kelly, said in a statement. “Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible.”

Chase Chrisley Teases What to Expect From New Docuseries: 'Very Different'

5 July 2025 at 14:54

Chase Chrisley is giving fans new insight into what they can expect from his family’s upcoming docuseries following his parent’s presidential pardon.

“It’s very different than Chrisley Knows Best, because as I’m sure anyone knows, Chrisley Knows Best was a family sitcom,” Chase told People in an interview published on Tuesday, July 1. “This is just raw, raw footage, raw. I’m like, ‘Can we go back to Chrisley Knows Best?’ Yeah, ‘Let’s just laugh.’”

Since the family’s inaugural reality TV series, Chrisley Knows Best, came to an end in March 2023, fans have been unable to see Todd Chrisley and his wife, Julie Chrisley, showcase their family life with kids, Chase, Savannah and Grayson Chrisley. (The couple also share adopted daughter Chloe, and Todd has two older kids from a previous relationship.)

In May, news broke that Lifetime was working with the Chrisley family on a new docuseries tentatively titled The Untitled Chrisleys Project following Todd and Julie’s arrest and subsequent conviction for bank fraud and tax evasion — acts the couple still deny.

Everything We Know About Todd Chrisley’s New Reality Show With His Family

“The Chrisleys don’t know best anymore,” a Lifetime statement said when teasing the upcoming project. “But they’re doing their best to be there for each other.”

After president Donald Trump issued full pardons for the couple in May, the docuseries will now include the couple’s return home and attempts to establish a new “normal” in the wake of their incarceration.

“We were actually at the tail end of filming,” he explained. “We’re still filming a little bit. I feel like for so long on Chrisley Knows Best, I played a character. Savannah played a character. We all did. We’re actually being able to be open and vulnerable, and show the highs, and show the lows, and no matter how low we get kicked down, we’re still going to get back [up].”

Now that his parents are free and able to participate in the new docuseries, Chase teases that the show will take on a whole new tone, adding that his father came out “guns blazing.”

“He’s ready for anybody and everybody,” he told the publication. “Anybody that knows anything about my dad knows that it’s changed.”

Chase Chrisley 'Grateful' as Parents Todd and Julie Chrisley Pardoned

While the family is adjusting to having their matriarch and patriarch back at home and in front of the cameras, Chase says that in the end the pardon — and his parents’ involvement in the upcoming series — is a blessing.

“It’s an amazing adjustment, obviously,” he said. “I feel like throughout the entire process, even once, after the conviction, even after they went away, I knew deep down that like, ‘This is not it. This is not the end result. So I feel like I was carrying around, just waiting, waiting, waiting for something to happen.”

Influencer Admits to Ruining Her Own Plastic Surgery Results

5 July 2025 at 14:48

Influencer Maddison Steiner knows firsthand how plastic surgery can go awry.

Steiner underwent a breast augmentation in July 2024 after having given birth years prior, she told People in an interview published Saturday, July 5. “I felt ready to do something for myself and refresh the way I felt about my body.”

So Steiner found a Seattle-based surgeon and set up the procedure. At first, everything was going well and she felt confident in the results.

“The specific procedure I chose was labeled as a ’48-hour rapid recovery,’ meaning the healing process is meant to be very quick with minimal pain,” she said. “By 72 hours post-op, I felt great — like I was ready to get back to everyday life.”

Unfortunately, that’s when things started to go badly — and Steiner admits she’s the one to blame.

“I started lifting my toddler, even though my surgeon had specifically advised against lifting anything — including children — for six weeks,” she explained. “I misunderstood the instructions and thought it only applied to lifting things above my head, not to all lifting in general.”

After a few weeks, Steiner also realized that something was wrong — a reality that became even more apparent on Halloween. Once she took off her corseted costume, Steiner told the publication she “saw my implant slide into my armpit — it was visibly moving under my skin.”

“I immediately contacted my surgeon, and he confirmed that the pocket on my left side had stretched,” she added. Maddison also said she had carried her toddler daughter on her left hip before the implant began to shift.

Steiner got in touch with her medical team, who confirmed something was wrong. “As soon as I realized something was wrong, I sent photos to my nurse. She immediately forwarded them to my surgeon, and the next morning, they called me in for an exam,” she continued. “Not long after, they scheduled me for a revision surgery just a few weeks later.”

Unfortunately, the second surgery was more difficult.

“The revision surgery was more painful than the first. My surgeon had to manually stitch the implant pockets to tighten them and prevent further shifting,” she explained. “When I first saw the results the day after surgery, I was honestly horrified. I thought I looked botched.”

“I started crying because the way he had tucked my breast to help the pocket heal made everything look very strange,” Steiner continued. Luckily, she added, it all worked out.

“He told me to trust the process and give it time, and he was right,”she explained. “After a few weeks of healing, everything settled perfectly, and I’m happy with the results.”

On Thursday, July 3, Hudson shared photos from a family vacation trip to Greece via Instagram. Hudson was in the country with her fiancée Danny Fujikawa, their daughter Rani Rose, as well as her son Bingham Bellamy (whom she shares with Matt Bellamy), her brother Oliver Hudson, his wife Erin Bartlett and their children, as well as her brother Wyatt Russell.

“Family summer 🇬🇷 We love you Greece,” she captioned the series of snaps.

Noticeably absent from the photos were Kate’s mom, Goldie Hawn, and her stepfather, Kurt Russell. Her biological father, Bill Hudson, and her mother were married from 1976 to 1982.

While speaking on the “Awards Chatter” podcast in June, Hudson revealed Kurt had once offered her a part in his 1996 movie Escape from L.A. — but she told him no.

“I went in and auditioned and got that part, and I sort of realized, ‘Oh, this is when you start to make choices that will define your career.’ And, ‘Do I want to be defined by being Kurt’s daughter who got this part? No,” she explained.

“[It doesn’t] matter if I got it because I was good enough — it would never be what people would ever think,” Hudson continued. “And I knew that and was like, ‘No, I can’t.’ So I ended up saying no to that, too.”

Even though they didn’t work together in the movie, Hudson has often cited Kurt as a source of inspiration. She told the podcast hosts that the fun she had on Kurt’s film sets as a child contributed to her decision to eventually become a bonafide actor herself.

“My dad’s sets were the fun sets,” Hudson added. “It was like Big Trouble in Little China and we had slides that would go down into rubber fish, and these amazing costumes … And the thing is, when you grow up on a movie set, it’s not that fun. [There] is a lot of waiting around, so you realize you really love it when you don’t want to get off the movie set.”

In fact, she told her parents she wanted to act when she was 11, but her mom shot the dream down.

“Performing was always something I knew I was going to do,” she explained. “There was never a question, but really falling in love with the circus was something that I don’t think all kids actually have when they’re on a set.”

Why Influencer Tanner Martin Felt ‘Blessed’ to Have Cancer: Mom's Eulogy

5 July 2025 at 13:58

During influencer Tanner Martin’s emotional funeral service, his mother revealed how he found a way to cope with his stage IV cancer diagnosis.

“You have been an outstanding example of faith,” his mom, Kimberly Martin, said in a eulogy delivered during his Saturday, July 5, memorial service. “Even while being very ill with cancer, if you could, you would attend sacrament meetings … in your PJs and robe.”

She added, “You taught me that you can see the blessings and love in our Savior in any situation. Because of that, it brings happiness.”

Tanner announced his own death in a pre-recorded social media video earlier this month. He was 30 and had documented his stage IV colon cancer battle via his social media accounts. (Martin was diagnosed in 2020, two years after marrying wife Shay Wright.)

“A couple years ago, I sat with you as you received chemo,” Kimberly added on Saturday. “It was quiet with a few other patients all getting chemo. I just asked you, ‘Are you angry or frustrated because I am?’ He looked surprised and said to me, ‘Ma, because of cancer, I have been so blessed. I’ve been able to experience our Savior’s love for me through others. I know I’m loved by my family, friends and those I interact with during treatments.’”

According to Tanner, he also credited his terminal cancer for introducing him to “the nurses and doctors and other patients [who] are so amazing.”

“‘I actually feel blessed,’” Kimberly recalled, before addressing her late son directly. “You chose to be happy and grateful even when you weren’t feeling well, [or] even when you were in the face of adversity. You were willing to share a smile, always willing to lift others.”

Celebrities and Social Media Stars Who Announced Their Own Deaths

Tanner is survived by his parents, Kimberly and Thomas Martin, brother Spencer Martin, wife Wright and their newborn daughter.

“Watching you and Shay grow your family has been such a blessing and miracle to all of us,” his mom continued. “You have left an amazing legacy of faith, kindness, love and what it means to be a true disciple of our Savior for our sweet Amy Lou.”

Tanner’s dad also offered a eulogy on Saturday.

“It is an honor and pleasure to be his dad — and it still is,” Thomas tearfully said. “Shay has just been a wonderful companion. They got two years before he was diagnosed, and then they had five years with doctors’ visits and the struggle and the fight. There were still a lot of good times in those five years, but there were still a lot of other times, too. It sometimes doesn’t seem fair that I’ve had 30 Father’s Days, and Tanner had one.”

Fans Are Convinced Shannon Beador's Daughter Sophie Is Joining 'Next Gen LA'

5 July 2025 at 13:09

Shannon Beador’s daughter Sophie is growing up fast — and fans are convinced that growth includes a stint on reality TV.

On Thursday, July 3, hair stylist Julius Michael shared a photo of Sophie, 23, via Instagram. The photo was lovely, but it was Michael’s caption that caught people’s attention and fueled speculation.

“The Next Generation is 🔥 @sophiebeador All grown up and becoming the #queen she is,” the caption read.

“Next gen NYC???” one person asked in the comments, referring to the Bravo reality series Next Gen NYC, which debuted in June 2025. Another pointed out that Sophie strongly resembles her mom and wrote, “Stunning like Shannon! Julius I need you to do my hair in Vegas where I live! 🔥🔥🔥

Shannon and David Beador Reunite — Again! — for Twin Daughters’ Graduation

Shannon Beador joined the cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County in 2014 and is believed to be part of the cast of the show’s 19th season.

Next Gen NYC “follows a tangled web of friends raised in the spotlight — or at least close enough for good lighting — as they stumble into adulthood one brunch, breakup and spontaneous decision at a time,” according to the show’s tagline.

Sophie Beador is not listed on the show’s cast, but some clearly believe Michael was making a reference to the possibility of her joining some version of the show. On July 1, Reality Blurb reported that several children of reality stars, including those of Adrienne Maloff and Cynthia Bailey, have been approached about joining a version of the series set in Los Angeles.

Joining the series might be a diversion for Sophie, whose father (Shannon Beador’s ex-husband) recently refiled for a restraining order against his estranged wife Lesley Beador. Lesley and David Beador share one daughter, Anna Love Beador.

David and Lesley have been married for four years. David has requested that Lesley be ordered to stay 100 yards from him, his home, and his place of employment except for when the pair are exchanging custody of Anna.

David also requested that Lesley be ordered out of their home in Newport Beach, California. “I own the home. My business is located in Orange County. Lesley is currently staying at our Montana residence for the summer,” he noted in court documents.

“Lesley and I have had many ups and downs in our marital relationship, with prior [divorce petitions] filed and dismissed and domestic violence restraining orders,” David also said. “I have always been concerned that Lesley’s relationship with me has been primarily based upon her desire to live a luxurious standard of living.”

He added, “In our case [it’s] not just a cliché that Lesley married me for my money. In our case it is a fact, she has made that very clear to me literally.”

Andy Roddick and Brooklyn Decker's Relationship Timeline

5 July 2025 at 12:50

Andy Roddick fell hard for Brooklyn Decker after their first meeting — and their romance has only gotten stronger.

“I was hosting a show for football for Sports Illustrated and he watched it every week and he got his attorney to call my agent at the time and I thought it was very shady as one would,” Decker recalled to the Tennis Channel in July 2017. “And I did not call him back for five months I was living in New York at the time and my now-manager said to me, ‘You have no friends, all your friends are in North Carolina where I grew up and why don’t you call this guy, I hear he’s really nice.’”

The twosome began dating in 2007, nearly one year before Roddick popped the question. They wed in April 2008.

Roddick and Decker, who share son Hank and daughter Stevie, work hard to keep their spark alive.

“I think with work and kids, I think that we’re a really good team,” Roddick gushed to Us Weekly in August 2022. “I think we know that we each try to go above and beyond with our household responsibilities and the kids. And so, I don’t think we ever question either [person’s] effort at all [which] leads to kind of more of a calming situation.”

After watching Decker host “She Says Z Says, NFL Pick” on Sports Illustrated’s website, Roddick was keen to meet her in person. Luckily, the model eventually agreed to connect and the pair officially started dating soon after.

Us confirmed the duo wed in an intimate Texas ceremony. “It was really simple but beautiful,” a source recalled at the time. “Just close friends and family.”

Decker announced in May 2015 that she was expecting the couple’s first child, sharing maternity photos via Instagram. Son Hank was born that October.

While balancing the busy careers and raising two kids, Roddick found time to share the key to the pair’s lasting romance.
“Honestly, it’s not romantic, but you have to schedule it,” the former US Open champ told Us. “Honestly, kind of everything revolves around your kids, and a couple of careers. We do try to do a good job of saying, ‘Hey, next Wednesday we’re going to go out and enjoy each other.’ Enjoy the silence of no children around, and enjoy not picking stuff up off the floor, unless we do it.’ So, scheduling matters when you’re this far out and have a couple of kids.”

The couple tested out pal Chrissy Teigen’s headbands from her Cravings brand and Decker teased via Instagram that they were “fighting” over the accompanying faux-fur robe and slippers.

The actress and the professional athlete attended Phil Riportella and Simon Huck’s wedding, which marked the “first time” Decker ever saw her spouse wear a tuxedo. “Yes, he refused to wear one for his own wedding, so the fact that he wore one tonight speaks volumes,” she noted via Instagram.

“[Marriage] does become hilariously transactional,” Decker exclusively told Us in April 2022 of balancing their relationship with raising two children. “You’re like, ‘I’ve got the kids, you go buy the tampons, go get the diapers.’ … It’s very [much] like making a game plan for a football game. You’re drawing the X’s and someone is going to tackle this job and the other one’s going to take care of this.”
She added at the time: “I do think it’s easy to get caught up in the management of life, home, children, all of it. However, we do set aside time. … We prioritize it, but I think we could all do a better job.”

“Couples who vote together bone together,” she wrote via Instagram, sharing a selfie with Roddick after they voted in the local primary election.

“We do communicate pretty well,” Roddick revealed to Us. “We’ve been together 15 years, so you now, so that's not nothing, but marriage is something that you definitely have to work at and I think we both realize that.”
In addition to gushing about their romance, the Andy Roddick Foundation entrepreneur praised their children. 
“I think our daughter is pretty fiery [which] I tended to be on the court. I think we're both, pretty stubborn so maybe I think our daughter might be a little bit more like me [and] our son is very sweet and empathetic like his mother, but I think they're bits of both us in both of them,” he said, noting they are “happy” with two kids. “I don't think we know [if we’ll have more kids]. I normally just follow orders from my wife so we'll see what happens.”

“May he be this excited to take pictures with me for the next 14,” Decker captioned a series of photos via Instagram in celebration of the pair’s 14th wedding anniversary.
The actress made goofy faces in all the snaps, while her husband looked unimpressed or away from the cameras. “🥰 Happy Anniversary to my husband who is not on Instagram so will never see this,” she added.

Brooklyn Decker and Andy Roddick Serve Up Love at Wimbledon

5 July 2025 at 12:49

Former tennis champ Andy Roddick returned to the iconic Wimbledon court as a spectator — this time with wife Brooklyn Decker by his side.

Roddick, 42, watched the London-based tournament on Saturday, July 5, dressed in a smart gray blazer and navy trousers. He said in a private box with Decker, who coordinated in navy. The model, 38, stunned in a blue top with pinstripe slacks.

Decker accessorized her ensemble with delicate gold jewelry and a pair of oval-shaped sunglasses. For glam, she wore her signature blond tresses in loose waves.

The US Open champ — who reached the Wimbledon finals in 2004, 2005 and 2009 without taking home a medal — married Decker in 2009. They went on to welcome son Hank and daughter Stevie in 2015 and 2017, respectively.

Five years later, Decker opened up to Us Weekly about balancing her marriage with parenthood.

“It does become hilariously transactional. You’re like, ‘I’ve got the kids, you go buy the tampons, go get the diapers,’” she told Us exclusively in April 2022. “It’s very [much] like making a game plan for a football game. You’re drawing the X’s and someone is going to tackle this job and the other one’s going to take care of this.”

According to the Grace & Frankie alum, “efficiency is key” when it comes to taking care of multiple children.

“I do think it’s easy to get caught up in the management of life, home, children, all of it. However, we do set aside time,” she said. “We prioritize it, but I think we could all do a better job.”

Decker and Roddick are raising Hank and Stevie far from the Hollywood limelight in the actress’ native North Carolina.

“We were like, ‘OK, we get one chance to raise these kids,’” Decker said in the summer issue of Garden & Gun magazine, noting they moved away from Texas just before the COVID-19 pandemic. “We wanted to do it with family.”

She added, “My parents’ house is connected to ours. We have a screened-in porch that we share with a garden out back. It feels like a really old-school way of living, where it’s multigenerational in one unit. My brother, sister-in-law and their kids are always over. The slowing down, cooking together, kids running barefoot in the yard — all of that is reminiscent of my childhood.”

Decker even designed their house, which she told the magazine is their family’s “happy spot.”

“I grew up going to Brevard and Boone and Blowing Rock, and camping all the time. It’s one of the few places where our kids can run around, and I don’t worry about someone being on their cell phone and hitting them on their bikes,” Decker added. “Our kids can foster their independence. They can go run in a creek bed, and we don’t have to be right there. It feels slow and nostalgic in the best way.”

Influencer Tanner Martin Honored at Funeral Days After His Death

5 July 2025 at 12:42

Tanner Martin’s loved ones are gathering to pay tribute at the influencer’s funeral days after his death.

“It is an honor and pleasure to be his dad — and it still is,” his father, Thomas, tearfully said in a eulogy delivered on Saturday, July 5. “He was always just generally happy. He wanted to be everyone’s friend, and he assumed — at least when he was young — that most everyone wanted to be his friend. He was just always switched on to be happy and friendly.”

He added, “During Tanner’s last week, his brother [Spencer] and I with him the original Star Wars trilogy. We’d stay with him at night and make sure he had everything [he needed]. … We watched the trilogy and the Raiders of the Lost Ark trilogy and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.”

Ahead of the funeral, Martin’s wife, Shay Wright, shared via Instagram that everyone attending the funeral is “invited to wear something Star Wars in honor of Tanner — ties, pins, stickers, our custom Rebels Against Cancer shirts with other formal wear.” He also requested that Star Wars stickers to be placed on his casket.

“We are so grateful for this community & all of you that love Tanner with us,” the post read. “Your support has carried us in many ways.”

In his eulogy, Thomas also praised his son’s marriage to Wright.

“They are a great mix,” he said on Saturday. “It is truly an opposites-attract situation, where Tanner is the fun-loving guy [who’s] a little forgetful, and Shay is the list and the organized and the ‘we’re going to be on time’ part of the [partnership]. … Shay has just been a wonderful companion.”

Thomas continued, “They got two years before he was diagnosed, and then they had five years with doctors’ visits and the struggle and the fight. There were still a lot of good times in those five years, but there were still a lot of other times, too. It sometimes doesn’t seem fair that I’ve had 30 Father’s Days, and Tanner had one. I don’t know if fairness really plays into it.”

Martin announced his own death at age 30 following a battle with stage IV colon cancer, which he was diagnosed with in 2020. He had been documenting his health journey via social media alongside Wright.

“Hey, it’s me, Tanner, if you’re watching this, I am dead,” he said in a prerecorded video shared on June 25. “I had a heck of a life. I decided to make this video announcing my death because I saw someone did that, like, a year or so ago, and I think it’s a good opportunity to get all your thoughts out.”

He continued, “Life was awesome. I really enjoyed it while I was here. Hopefully, I believe there’s something after this. I’m excited to meet those people, and hopefully we’re hanging out now and making fun of all you nerds.”

Martin gave a sweet shout-out to his inner circle and thanked fans for their support and “helping to make the last years” of his life “fun and enjoyable” while also making him feel “comfortable.”

Weeks before his death, Martin welcomed his first baby with Wright. The couple shared the news in May, while uploading photos of the newborn.

“Her daddy made it😭💗🫶🏼,” Wright captioned the Instagram post at the time, which included a wooden birth announcement that read, “Our little jiaozi has arrived.” (Jiaozi translates to “dumpling” in Chinese.)

In another prerecorded Instagram post shared on June 25, Martin encouraged fans to donate to a GoFundMe to support Wright and their daughter. He explained that the funds would help to “replace” his income and pay for their child’s school and life events.

Caspar Lee Says He Made $1 Million on YouTube at the Age of 21

5 July 2025 at 11:44

Caspar Lee went viral on YouTube in the 2010s, leading to some mind-boggling million-dollar paydays.

“I started making YouTube videos when I was 16. It wasn’t really a business avenue. I just thought, this is a cool thing and I want to try to build it up as big as I can,” Lee, 31, told The Times of London in a Friday, July 4, profile. “When I was 18, I asked my parents if I could take a year off before going to university and do YouTube full time. At that point I had two or three thousand pounds in my bank account.”

As Lee started making more videos, his income slowly grew, too.

“I was fortunate to be part of [a] group of YouTubers in the right place at the right time, and the audience and figures grew,” Lee recalled. “I managed to interview Ed Sheeran, Kevin Hart [and] Dwayne Johnson. I turned my YouTube channel into a talk show. I think nearly 10 million people saw the Ed Sheeran video — that was when things really took off. By the time I was 21, I’d made my first million.”

Here's How Much a Famous Child YouTuber’s Family Claims They Made Annually

He added, “It felt good to get to that point and have a financial cushion for me and my family, but making even more money doesn’t incrementally make you more happy. Even though I made an extreme amount of money quickly, I didn’t know how long it would last.”

For Lee, who didn’t grow up overtly wealthy, he tried to save “as much as possible.”

“It’s kind of how someone feels when they win the lottery,” he said. “I don’t really get a buzz from spending. If I spend money on something that I think can make more money one day, then I get a buzz, but I don’t like buying something that I know is just going to lose its value the second I walk out the room.”

Lee has since transitioned his career offline, launching multiple businesses and a venture capital fund, also worth millions.

“I can’t really see a time when I’ll stop working. You never know what’s going to happen with global politics or economics, so I hope to have a diverse portfolio of investments that will keep me going,” he added. “My venture fund has been incredible. I’ve invested a lot of my personal money into that.”

All in all, Lee wants to be able to build “a nest to look after [his] family.”

“I don’t have children yet, but I want to make sure my future family will be well looked after,” Lee, who married model Ambar Driscoll in February, added. “Once you feel secure financially, any additional money doesn’t necessarily make you happier. Some people spend their life trying to just chase money for the wrong reason, but I really enjoy building things. It’s the process, not the money, that makes me happy.”

A Look Back at Julian McMahon's Relationship History

5 July 2025 at 11:12

In the wake of Charmed and Nip/Tuck star Julian McMahon’s shocking death, fans of the beloved actor are looking back at his previous relationships and deep loves of his life.

“With an open heart, I wish to share with the world that my beloved husband, Julian McMahon, died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer,” his wife, Kelly Panigua, told Deadline in a statement on July 4, confirming the actor’s passing. “Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible. We ask for support during this time to allow our family to grieve in privacy. And we wish for all of those to whom Julian brought joy, to continue to find joy in life. We are grateful for the memories.”

McMahon was best known for his roles on the two hit series, as well as his appearance as Dr. Doom in two Fantastic Four movies, 2005’s Fantastic Four and 2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

McMahon’s personal life included three marriages to singer Dannii Minogue, actress Brooke Burns and his longest marriage to Paniagua.

McMahon and the Australian singer and actress — who is also the younger sister of Kylie Minogue — met while filming the 1988 series Home and Away. The pair wed in 1994, but their marriage ended after 18 months.

The pair spent a lot of their marriage apart, as Minogue worked in England and McMahon was pursuing roles in the United States. In an interview with Mamma Mia’s podcast No Filter, Minogue also said that McMahon’s mother played a role in their split.

“There was no relationship, she wouldn’t speak to me, I wasn’t allowed to be near her in the house, she said she wasn’t coming to the wedding,” Minogue said. “We just had no idea how to handle it — we were just trying to.”

Minogue also said traveling frequently to see McMahon was expensive. “I was travelling every two weeks to see him, and I not only ran out of money – I was in debt,” she said.

“I thought, ‘I’ll support you until you get on your feet. Then we can support each other,’” the singer added. “Then the marriage was off… it was a huge struggle emotionally, physically, mentally, financially.”

Burns and McMahon were married from 1999 to 2001 and share one daughter, Madison, who was born in June 2000. In the wake of McMahon’s death, the actress paid tribute to her ex-husband on social media.

Burns shared a photo of her ex-husband and daughter together via Instagram on July 5 and captioned it, “Rest in peace” alongside a broken heart emoji.

Doherty and McMahon dated briefly when they were both starring on Charmed. The pair’s relationship reportedly took place while he was married to Burns, during the same time frame of Doherty’s third and final season on the show, which aired from October 2000 to May 2001. The pair also costarred in the 2001 TV movie Another Day.

Nicki Swift reported Burns found out about the relationship via the National Enquirer and once explained, “It was the straw that broke the camel’s back. He’s a good father. Funny, he was really great when we were together … he got carried away by all the Los Angeles hoopla.”

McMahon and Paniagua began dating in 2003 and tied the knot in Lake Tahoe in June 2014, the Daily Telegraph reported at the time. The pair had gotten engaged in November 2013 while on a trip to Melbourne, Australia.

The pair were very private and did not speak about their relationship frequently. In her statement confirming McMahon’s death, Paniagua described him as her “beloved husband.”

Kelly Monaco Says She Was Warned Against Doing 'DWTS' as an Actor

5 July 2025 at 11:04

Before Kelly Monaco was crowned the first-ever Dancing With the Stars winner, she was warned that joining the hit reality competition series could damage her career.

“I had a letter in my mailbox in my dressing room at General Hospital. We have these little mailboxes outside of our dressing rooms, and there was a letter in there, and it was a request to do Dancing with the Stars,” Monaco, 49, recalled to Entertainment Weekly in a profile published on Saturday, July 5.I remember bringing it home and getting feedback from family, friends, and so forth, and they were like, ‘You can’t do a reality show. Actors don’t do a reality show.’”

She added, “I had never heard of ballroom dancing before. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. But I was just like, ‘F*** it. I’ll try anything once.’ That’s how I’ve always rolled in life. If an opportunity comes, I’ll try it.”

DWTS, based on England’s popular Strictly Come Dancing reality TV competition, premiered in 2005. Monaco, who was paired with pro dancer Alec Mazo, competed against John O’Hurley, Joey McIntyre, Rachel Hunter, Evander Holyfield and Trista Sutter.

Kelly Monaco Speaks Out on ‘General Hospital’ Exit After 21 Years

“The first season was only six episodes. It was a test run, and I was like, ‘I’m not going to tell anyone I’m doing it and hopefully I get voted off first and no one will ever see it,’” the soap opera star recalled to EW. “After the first episode, I was horrified by the comments from the judges, and I got the lowest score, I think, ever in the history of Dancing With the Stars. So, I was like, ‘OK, it’s on. We’re going in and we’re doing this.’ Then I took it seriously, and I was all in at that point.”

According to Monaco, she thought she would be eliminated each week.

“I didn’t think I was a good dancer at all. I improved weekly. I think people related to me in that I went from duck feet to being able to spin,” she said. “I have ruptured eardrums, equilibrium problems, and for me to even be able to do that without falling flat on my face was a journey in itself. I was so proud every week that I made it a week further.”

Monaco’s ballroom journey also included a now-infamous wardrobe malfunction, where her dress broke during her and Mazo’s samba in week four.

“Alec was very strict, and he prepared me for every obstacle. He would have whoever was around throw obstacles at us,” Monaco added. “So, he prepared me for that, but oh my God, it was so scary. I felt like someone had a laser beam from five miles away and shot my costume. It was a countdown to going live, ‘Five, four, three, pop!’ I was like, ‘What am I supposed to do?’”

How ‘Days’ Cast Reacted to Kelly Monaco’s ‘General Hospital’ Exit

She continued, “I know I get at least five counts of a walk over to Alec, walking toward him for our dance. But I remember looking at the judges, looking at whoever like, ‘Is there a stop button? Okay, there’s nothing. I just have to go through it.’ So, I’m like, ‘OK, well, I’ll just hold my dress up while I dance.’ Alec supported me every step of the way. I don’t think I felt more confident in any dance.”

According to Monaco, the wardrobe mishap was “the turnaround of [her] experience with dance and the show.”

“After that, the audience related to me because I was on soap operas for so long, I had only been known as this villain and was only called by my soap name in public,” she said. “This gave the audience a chance to see the real me in a circumstance where you can either fall flat or rise above.”

Monaco’s performance — she later returned to the first and only All-Stars season in 2012, finishing in third place with partner Val Chermovskiy — has set the standard for the competition. A 34th season has been greenlit this fall, starring Alix Earle, Robert Irwin, Jen Affleck, Whitney Leavitt and more.

'Marvel's Runaways' Cast Reacts to Julian McMahon's Death at 56

5 July 2025 at 10:07

The Marvel’s Runaways cast will forever remember their late costar Julian McMahon.

McMahon played Jonah, an alien magistrate, on the Hulu series, which aired from 2016 to 2019. The Marvel Television show was adapted from the comic book of the same name, highlighting a group of teens in Los Angeles who run away from their respective parents when they find out about their nefarious deeds under Jonah’s leadership. Jonah is also the biological father of teen Karolina Dean (Virginia Gardner).

“The show is pretty full-on,” McMahon said during a December 2018 appearance on AOL’s Build Series. “I really enjoyed this season [2] because we shot a lot of stuff in 70 mill. It’s all digital, but 70 mill, so everything’s got this epic, kind of seismic vibe to it.”

Runaways was canceled in November 2019 after its third season. McMahon died six years later after a battle with cancer. He was 56.

“With an open heart, I wish to share with the world that my beloved husband, Julian McMahon, died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer,” his wife, Kelly McMahon, said in a statement shared on Friday, July 4. “Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible.”

She continued, “We ask for support during this time to allow our family to grieve in privacy. And we wish for all of those to whom Julian brought joy to continue to find joy in life. We are grateful for the memories.”

In addition to Kelly, Julian is survived by 25-year-old daughter Madison, whom he shared with ex-wife Brooke Burns.
