The Robertson family became household names thanks to A&E, and they’ve stayed on fans’ minds ever since their series ended.

Duck Dynasty gave viewers an inside look at the lives of the Louisiana natives and their business, Duck Commander. The hit reality show premiered in March 2012 and ended in March 2017 after 11 seasons.

The series followed patriarch Phil Robertson, his wife, Kay Robertson, his brother Si Robertson and Phil’s sons Willie Robertson, Jep Robertson and Jase Robertson. Willie and his family — including wife Korie Robertson, daughter Sadie Robertson and son John Luke Robertson — took center stage throughout the show’s run, which featured appearances from the family’s many relatives.

Willie and Korie reflected on the phenomenon in March 2017. “The Robertson family has always been very open with their lives. Good and bad,” he told Us Weekly exclusively at the time. “When you’re vulnerable and say, ‘Hey, this is what we’re going through,’ that resonates.”

He added: “We try to protect everybody and not get caught in something embarrassing, though. There was one time Si was picking his nose and producers thought it was funny. We were like, ‘No, take that out.’”

Jason Kelce’s daughter Bennett “Bennie” Kelce respects the rules of timeout, and the two-year-old does not want to wade into any football conversation while she serves her punishment.

Bennie, who Jason shares with wife Kylie Kelce, made a brief appearance on NFL star’s “New Heights” podcast on Wednesday, May 21, which he hosts with his brother, Travis Kelce.

The hilarious moment came as Jason, 37, and Travis, 35, were discussing proposed rule changes in the NFL, including banning the “tush push” and a change to playoff seeding.

“Bennie’s in timeout right now,” Jason said before addressing his daughter. “Bennie, are you OK? You don’t like the rule change either? You think the division winner should keep their home game, right? Yeah, I think she thinks that.”

Jason Kelce Shares His Favorite Part of Being a Parent: 'It's Fantastic'

“She might be the smartest two-year-old ever if she agrees with this,” Travis jokingly replied.

“She’s probably better at deciding all this stuff than everybody else deciding it,” Jason added. “Bennie, what do you think about the tush push? Should the Eagles be allowed to do the tush push?”

“I’m in timeout,” Bennie reminded her dad.

But even her dad wasn’t about to let her use that to evade the tough questions.

“You’re in timeout? Should the NFL be in timeout for proposing the tush push?” he asked. “No? OK, you’re not being any fun right now.”

Jason and Kylie Kelce's Candid Quotes About Parenting Through the Years

It turns out the NFL, without Bennie’s help, elected not to ban the tush push — a play popularized by Jason’s former team, the Philadelphia Eagles, in which teammates push the quarterback forward through the opposing team’s defense.

Jason, for his part, has expressed his support for the play.

“I get why certain teams want to ban it for competitive reasons. I get why some people think that it’s potentially unsafe. I think optically it looks unsafe,” he said on the April 4 episode of “New Heights.” “For me personally, I never felt like there’s that much more of a risk of injuring somebody on the play and I don’t think there’s any statistics to back that up.”

In addition to Bennie, Jason and Kylie also share daughters Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 4, and newborn Finn, 1 month.

Though Bennie isn’t ready to weigh in on football rules herself, she’s not exactly known for keeping her opinions private. When Kylie announced she was pregnant with Finn, she shared a photo of the three girls wearing sweaters that said “big sister.” While Wyatt looked nervous and Elliote was all smiles, Bennie appeared to be sobbing.

“I feel like we captured a very accurate representation of how each of the girls feel about getting another sister. At least Ellie, mom and dad are on the same page! ” Kylie captioned the pic.

Before The Pitt returns for season 2, everyone wants to know whether Tracy Ifeachor will be reprising her fan-favorite role of Dr. Heather Collins.

During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Ifeachor, 39, was coy about her future on the hit HBO Max show, teasing, “Listen, there is going to be an amazing cast in season 2 — just as there was in season 1. I’m just going to leave it there.”

Ifeachor hinted at “a lot of surprises” in the sophomore season, adding, “I’m not a [plot] ruiner. I’m not even going to tell you who is or is not going to come back. I’m just going to say I want you to watch season 2 and just enjoy it as much as you’ve watched season 1. Hopefully there’ll be seasons 3 and 4 and 7.

In response to Us‘ suggestion that The Pitt should come back for at least seven seasons — with Ifeachor featured in all of the future installments — the actress remained tight-lipped about Collins’ journey.

Which 'The Pitt' Characters Are — and Aren't — Returning for Season 2

Viewers were introduced to the senior resident when The Pitt premiered in January, and it didn’t take long for Collins to develop a strong fanbase. The medical drama, meanwhile, has become a critical success after introducing a unique format where each episode follows an hour in a grueling 15-hour shift at the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital.

While highlighting how emergency rooms suffer from staff shortages, underfunding and insufficient resources, The Pitt also offered an authentic look at the everyday lives of hospital staff.

Ifeachor, for her part, got the chance to do some significant research to accurately — and authentically — bring her character to life.

“I spoke to a lot of doctors. I watched so many medical documentaries, which were just so amazing. Everything from Extremis to Freedom House: Street Saviors, which is about the first paramedics. I watched a lot of documentaries and stayed away from medical dramas,” she told Us. “I have all the respect for them but I feel like The Pitt is really original and really, really realistic. So I really wanted something that would feel like [my character]. I tried to find doctors who have the same thought process. It was a lot of research.”

With the hospital being set in the U.S., Ifeachor adapted her British accent as Collins, adding, “Obviously I’m born and raised in England so the way our languages are structured — the structure of the words — is so completely different. I’m doing an accent and a dialect that’s not my own naturally.”

It was important to Ifeachor that Collins feel like a real doctor who exists in Pittsburgh.

“I wanted her to look American and feel American. So the minute I would drive onto set, I would switch from English to American. I lived and breathed it,” she recalled. “In addition to documentaries, I was watching 300 hours of testimonials of women who’d had miscarriages and were trying and going down the IVF route. I would put songs to a testimonial. It would just remind me and I would try and listen.”

Ifeachor continued: “We didn’t really get many breaks between scenes so I would be on my own just listening, reading and trying to just get into the headspace of these women — these amazing women who have survived these really tragic and hard events.”

What to Know About ‘The Pitt’ Season 2: From Possible Cast Exits to Spinoffs

For those who need a refresher, Collins’ shift in season 1 started with her secretly celebrating a pregnancy. Collins ultimately experienced a miscarriage at work, which only a select few confidantes knew before she left early to go home and process the loss.

Season 1 didn’t bring Collins back in the last few episodes as the staff dealt with the cataclysmic aftermath of a mass festival shooting. Ifeachor acknowledged that there was more story to tell with Collins, which explained the overwhelming investment from fans in her season 2 return.

“You never know how a story is going to break. [That break] did enable me to go off and do another project, which I’m so excited about. I can’t wait for everyone to see it when I’m allowed to talk about that,” she shared with Us. “Once we knew she’s going to go home, I tried turning off my phone personally for an hour and it didn’t work. And I am the least on top of technology. I have about 300 unread text messages and I think there are some people that think I’m dead because I rather talk on the phone. So for me, when I even tried turning off my phone for an hour, it didn’t work.”

Ifeachor joked she didn’t understand how Collins’ coworkers were unable to get a hold of her during the crisis. The onscreen departure also didn’t allow Collins and Robby’s (Noah Wyle) romance to get wrapped up properly. Viewers learned in season 1 that Collins and Robby previously dated for a few months — but there was still chemistry there years later.

“I am always a hopeful romantic. I would have loved to have seen that toward the end of the season,” she recalled before quipping, “I remember saying to Noah one time, I was like, ‘I’ve been trying to flirt with you all season [on screen]. You have not even given me the time of day.’ I was always trying to [as Collins] and I felt like it was definitely in the script. … I would say there’s going to be lots of surprises to come.”

Whether Ifeachor does or doesn’t return as Collins, she had an incredible time sharing the screen with Wyle — and the rest of the cast.

Us Investigates How the New Slate of Medical TV Shows Differ From Each Other

“Noah was always watching everything. He is very into the camera angles and how it will be shot and how it will be received in the environment. Sometimes he’s written the episode so he’s going to watch the scenes get filmed. Sometimes he might have an idea of how the medical bit is directed because he has so many hats that he’s wearing before he is even in the scene,” Ifeachor explained. “So [our characters’ chemistry] wasn’t something that we ever actually talked about. Maybe that adds to it because maybe it is something they actually haven’t actually talked about.”

Ifeachor was specifically grateful for Wyle, 53, as a scene partner.

She added: “We just really vibed. We are just both very present and in the scene and very available to each other. Over time — and I am not speaking for anyone else — but hopefully we learned to really trust each other. You are working together and you don’t know each other. It’s just such an intense show,” she continued. “Then suddenly you’re having to do these scenes where you have history. So it was a real journey.”

Since Ifeachor mentioned primarily watching unscripted medical content before filming The Pitt, here at Us, we had to ask about her experience with the massively popular ER, which Wyle starred on from 1994 to 2009.

“I was aware of it. I do remember when I was a teenager just having the most tremendous crush on [Noah]. I can’t even tell you what the show was about. I had this just insane crush,” Ifeachor playfully shared with Us. “I can’t tell you anything about the show but him. I also really loved Julianna Margulies. I thought she was a really great actor too and there’s many, many more people who all just came together and did this amazing show. It was the first time I had seen a group of people who kind of resembled me or looked like me doing these amazing things. I was just so in awe of it.”

The Pitt has been renewed for season 2 and is currently streaming on HBO Max.

Regardless of how much success Alison Victoria has found as an HGTV star, she’s a human first.

“I think that with anyone — whether you’re in the public eye or not — when something hurts, you can either be crippled by it, or you can be empowered by it,” Victoria, 43, exclusively shared with Us Weekly on Monday, May 19. “Stuff stings and it makes you second guess yourself.”

Over the weekend, Victoria was at the airport when she came across a critical article about herself. While traveling to Las Vegas to film her new show Sin City Rehab, the interior designer saw a post with the headline: “Why Some HGTV Fans Seriously Can’t Stand Alison Victoria.”

Although she’s been a public figure for many years and is aware that people can comment whatever they’d like online, Victoria said the words and angle of the story hurt her.

HGTV’s Biggest Breakout Stars: Chip and Joanna Gaines and More

“I told myself years ago that I wasn’t going to let anyone dim my light, and unfortunately, an article like that will, and it sucks,” Victoria explained. “My flame won’t go out but it’s awful to read.”

Critical comments can be especially “hurtful” for the HGTV star because everything she does on the small screen is unscripted and real.

“I do reality television, which means the person that you see on those shows like Windy City Rehab and my soon to be show Sin City Rehab, that is reality,” she explained. “That’s as real as reality gets. But that’s who I am to my core. People are seeing me for me.”

Victoria, however, knows she’s not alone when it comes to online bullying. From A-list actresses to ordinary moms posting about parenting, the real estate expert acknowledged that so many people are faced with critics and haters in their life.

Over the years, Victoria has tried her best to not take anything personally.

“Understand that the person on the other side is going through some sort of pain because it takes someone in pain to want to inflict pain on others,” she said. “‘If I hurt, then I’m going to hurt someone else.’ And that’s a very vindictive way to live. If you stop and you put yourself in that person’s shoes and you look at it from the outside, you can kind of feel their hurt, and you almost feel bad for them. When you feel bad for somebody, you have empathy.”

Victoria also tries to come from a place of gratitude. The Emmy-nominated producer starts her day with a five-minute journal, where she writes down what she’s grateful for and what she hopes will happen in the day ahead.

She’s also thrilled to have the support of her boyfriend, Brandt Andersen, who can get fired up and defend his partner or help put things into perspective.

“I love life. I wake up smiling. I can’t wait to see what the day is going to bring,” Victoria shared. “I worked really hard to get here, and it feels surreal that I’m finally in a place of true happiness, loving where I live and having the most amazing job in the world.”

HGTV Stars' Dating Histories Through the Years

When reflecting on the article, Victoria is moving forward and trying to prove that living well is the best revenge.

“That [writer] did dim my light, and those comments hurt my feelings,” she said. “But no one’s ever going to turn the lights out.”

Sin City Rehab is expected to premiere later this year on HGTV.

Cara Delevingne said bye-bye to her blonde locks.

Delevingne, 32, debuted a black-haired hair transformation while attending the History Of Sound premiere during the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday, May 21. For the red carpet, she stepped out looking nearly unrecognizable without her signature honey blonde hair. Instead, she donned jet-black mane, which was cut into short wispy bangs and a shoulder-length wolf cut. Delevingne styled her freshly dyed hair in wet, wavy tresses.

For glam, Delevingne donned a full beat including smokey brown eyeshadow with a nude cut crease and black eyeliner in her waterline. She teamed her sexy eye look with filled-in black eyebrows, bronzed cheeks and lined pink lips.

The model teamed her edgy glam with a stylish red dress featuring a deep scoop neck, short sleeves, a corset bodice and a pleated A-line skirt.

Delevingne added the perfect amount of sparkle to her ensemble with a number of diamond rings and dainty earrings.

Ahead of stepping out on the red carpet, Delevingne took to Instagram to give a glimpse of her look. She posted a zoomed-in selfie of her glam as she scrunched up her nose and gave the camera a pout.

This isn’t the first time Delevingne has experimented with a new hairstyle. Over the years, she’s tried out a platinum pixie cut, which she later dyed auburn before shaving it all off and rocking a buzz cut in 2016. She slowly grew back her tresses and, by 2019, was slaying with shoulder-length hair.

Miley Cyrus found her entire world shifted once she stopped drinking and doing drugs.

“I’ve learned this about myself over the years: sobriety is, like, that’s like my God,” Cyrus, 32, said during a Wednesday, May 21, interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe. “I need it, I live for it. I mean, that [has] changed my entire life.”

The “Something Beautiful” singer stopped using marijuana in 2017 and drinking alcohol in 2020. While speaking to 51-year-old Lowe, Cyrus acknowledged the last time they sat down for an Apple Music interview.

“When you came to my psychedelic house that was painted black in Hidden Hills, where everything is all-white homes and equestrian. Then, I painted mine black and rainbow, and [now] I no longer live there,” Cyrus quipped. “But, I was happy you came and saw me in that space. I was thinking about it a lot today as I was on my way here, because I was so close to who’s sitting here right now, but there was just life. It had more to teach me. It had more lessons.”

Miley Cyrus Says She Wouldn’t ‘Erase’ Her Relationship With Liam Hemsworth

During Cyrus’ 2020 interview with Lowe, she admitted that she “fell off” her sobriety journey during the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown.

“I know I needed to fall one more time,” Cyrus explained on Wednesday. “It just never would have happened this way. I just never would have been sitting here, and there were times in that section from when I’ve seen you last time and now that they hurt, I’m not proud of them.”

She added, “Definitely not my best moments, not some of my best work, any of that. But, it all led me to writing ‘Flowers,’ which then was some sort of key right into the lock of all healing. It healed me so much.”

Cyrus released “Flowers” in 2023 about her divorce from ex-husband Liam Hemsworth.

Miley Cyrus Reflects on Her ‘Wild’ Past in Tearful ‘Used to Be Young’ Video

“It’s like a modern ‘I Will Survive’ in some ways,” Lowe mused, referring to Gloria Gaynor’s 1978 breakup anthem. “And then it allows you to create this body of work.”

“Flowers” went on to win two Grammy Awards in February 2024, which was equally “healing” for Cyrus.

“I think somewhere inside of me I needed maybe to hold a trophy and just feel for a moment that I have something that I can hold in my hands that feels like a true achievement,” she said. “Because after every album I’ve been able to say, ‘Well, I did what I came here to do and I made the album that I set out to make and that’s enough.’ Maybe it’s the kid in me. I don’t know what it was, but I needed something to hold that made me feel like I had really won. And so at the Grammys, that’s why I went. It was actually for healing. And funny enough, I’m happy I’m talking to you of all people, because I wasn’t going to go to the Grammys. I wasn’t going to perform at the Grammys for sure because as everybody was post-pandemic, I was struggling with a lot of anxiety.”

Cyrus continued, “I never wrote a song thinking, ‘I want to get a Grammy,’ but receiving that Grammy for ‘Flowers’ felt more like a band-aid on a broken heart in some way. And so, once I received my Grammy, I was like, ‘Look, when you Google me, it says Miley Cyrus, a Grammy Award-winning artist. I’m going to go make some of my weird that I like to make.’”

Jennifer Garner has a special bond with daughter Violet Affleck.

Garner became a mom for the first time in 2005 when she and ex-husband Ben Affleck welcomed Violet. (The exes also share children Seraphina and Sameul who were born in 2009 and 2012, respectively.)

“My eldest daughter [Violet] didn’t have a shot. She couldn’t have a free thought — I was all over her,” Garner said of becoming a first time mom in a May 2023 interview with Allure. “I was a nightmare for everyone around me.”

Garner and Violet have maintained a strong mother-daughter relationship over the years. While the Affleck children have remained largely out of the spotlight, Violet was present when Garner got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and for a public visit to the White House.

Keep scrolling for a close look at what Garner and Violet have said about their relationship over the years:

Enforcing the Rules

Like most parents, Garner has to tell her children no sometimes — and Violet is understanding when her mom means business.

“I said to my girls, ‘What do I mean when I say no?'” Garner exclusively told Us Weekly in May 2015. “And they were like, ‘She really means no!’ So you just have to do it. It’s not pretty. I don’t think that I’m always the best at it but I try my best to be consistent and for them to know what they can expect from me.”

Setting Violet Up for Success

As Violet settled into fifth grade, Garner confessed that it took some time to get her daughter on the same level as her classmates.

“We just had back to school night, and I said afterwards, ‘Do they need a computer?’ They need some kind of device or computer to complete their homework. Our daughter doesn’t have any of those things, and she’s, like, the only kid in the class who doesn’t, apparently,” the actress told Today in 2016. “So I found an old laptop this weekend for her, and I am kind of panicked about it. She’s not on social media yet — her school has a no social media policy until 6th grade — but I know it’s coming soon.”

Dealing With Public Attention

In a March 2021 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Garner recalled that Violet was not afraid to share her thoughts about living in the limelight at a young age.

“She stood up on a chair in a little velvet dress, with her hair a bit back and her glasses on and she didn’t say her R’s right, and she said: ‘We didn’t ask for this. We don’t want these cameras, they’re scary,’” Garner recounted.

Being Strict With Social Media

While Garner is active on Instagram, the 13 Going on 30 star confessed that she’s not keen on her daughter joining the platform.

“She’ll occasionally talk to me about getting Instagram, and I can see why because I’m on there and it’s something kind of fun that I do,” Garner said in a 2019 sit down with Katie Couric. “And I am modeling the opposite of what I want for her to do. How often is that in parenting?”

However, Garner decided to make a compromise with Violet.

“I just say, ‘When you can show me studies that say that teenage girls are happier using Instagram than not, then we can have the conversation,’” she continued. “‘But everything you look at, I don’t see anything positive for you out there. You can look at mine when you want to, we can go over it together, but I just don’t see it.’”

Emotional Milestones

When Violet graduated from high school in 2024, Garner had an emotional moment watching her daughter receive her diploma.

“Tell me you have a graduate without telling me you have a graduate,” Garner wrote via Instagram alongside a series of snaps and a video of her crying in multiple instances.

Mother-Daughter Arguments

Violet got candid about getting into a discussion with her mother during the Los Angeles wildfires in an essay she wrote for Yale University’s student-run Yale Global Health Review.

“I spent the January fires in Los Angeles arguing with my mother in a hotel room,” Violet penned in her essay titled A Chronically Ill Earth: COVID Organizing as a Model Climate Response in Los Angeles. “She was shell-shocked, astonished at the scale of destruction in the neighborhood where she raised myself and my siblings. I was surprised at her surprise”

Fans can expect a drama packed second season of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys.

According to a press release shared in May 2025, “the stakes couldn’t be higher” for season 2 due to oldest brother Steven McBee Jr. being left in charge of the McBee family farm during harvest season. If McBee Jr. doesn’t make enough during harvest, the farm has a high risk of being foreclosed.

“With Steven’s relationship with Calah [Jackson] on the rocks, Jesse [McBee’s] anxiety around marrying Alli [Ventresca] and Cole [McBee] buckling under the pressure of becoming a father with pregnant girlfriend Kacie [Adkison], these young men find themselves attempting to salvage their relationships and save the farm at the same time,” the press release read.

Ultimately, the boy’s mother, Kristi McBee, has to step in when the FBI threatens to take down their business.

Joe Millionaire's Steven McBee Jr. Gets Real About Ups and Downs With Calah

Season 1 of the Bravo reality series, which aired in March 2024, followed a family of cowboys in small-town Missouri as they navigated their financial and familial challenges on their farm.

Keep scrolling to learn more about season 2 of The McBee Dynasty:

Where Did ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 1 Leave Off?

Steve McBee Sr. left the family farm and his sons during the season 1 finale due to needing a break from the pressure. That left his son, Steven Jr., in charge of managing the farm, leading to tensions with his brother, Cole, who felt he was more deserving.

Shortly after the season ended, Steve Sr. pled guilty to participating in a massive insurance fraud scheme. He was charged with one count of federal crop insurance fraud, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office Western District of Missouri in November 2024. The McBee Farming Operations owner, who waived his right to a grand jury, allegedly received insurance benefits he was not authorized to get.

The DOJ also claimed that Steve Sr. committed additional fraud in 2019 and 2020 including obtaining insurance for his soybean crop after “misrepresenting” that the vegetables were “the first crop in certain fields,” but allegedly using the space to grow wheat as well. (By choosing to double crop, Steve Sr. was “not entitled” to the claim.)

As part of the plea arrangement, Steve Sr. was ordered to pay restitution, which will be determined by the court in September 2025. The family patriarch, who pled guilty to the charges, is also facing up to 30 years in federal prison without parole.

Who Is Starring on ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2?

The cast of season 2 includes Steven Jr., his on-and-off girlfriend, Calah, as well as Cole, his girlfriend, Kacie, Jesse, his fiancé, Alli, Steven Jr., Cole, Jesse and Brayden McBee’s mom, Kristi, Steve Sr.’s ex Galyna Saltkovska and Brayden. Steve Sr. will not be on the show due to his ongoing legal battle.

What Is ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2 About?

According to the press release, fans can expect to see Steven Jr. taking charge of the family farm amid dealing with his relationship struggles with Calah. Calah’s “tumultuous relationship with Steven Jr. leaves her feeling like an outsider in a family she’s desperately tried to fit into” and she “must make a choice to fight for her place in the family or leave it all behind.”

Meanwhile, Cole “is trying to shed his reckless past and outshine his brother Steven Jr. to be the one leading the farm.”

“As the pressure increases, the temptation to fall back into old habits threatens everything he’s worked to build,” the press release read, noting that his pregnant girlfriend, Kacie, needs to decide whether “to trust him wholeheartedly or protect herself and walk away.”

Similar to Steven Jr. and Cole, Jesse is also dealing with his own relationship issues as he prepares to marry Alli, his high school sweetheart, and is dealing with the finality of it and issues regarding a prenup.

Due to their son’s own drama, Kristi ultimately has to take charge of the family farm — and also finally confronts Galyna, who she holds responsible for tearing her marriage apart to Steve Sr. (The twosome were married for 28 years before divorcing in 2019.)

Galyna is met with her own relationship issues when she learns that her ex Steve Sr. has been seeing her good friend behind her back.

Is There a ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2 Trailer?

The show’s trailer, released in May 2025, shows how the brothers will put their relationships on the line to save the farm.

“My loyalty lies with my family and on this farm and ranch,” Steven Jr. shares. “I would defend that until the day I die.”

In another scene, the brothers discuss Jesse’s upcoming wedding to Alli — and how they believe he needs a prenup.

“If there’s not a prenup, you can’t have your name on the farm,” Steven Jr. explains before Jesse says, “Draw one up.”

The trailer then shows the struggle that the farm is facing financially.

“That deal really put us in a bind,” Steven Jr. says, with Cole adding, “We own a quarter of this farm too whether you like it or not.”

Steven Jr. later tells Kristi that they need six million dollars to “pay payments.”

Meanwhile, Galyna learns that Steve Sr. moved her out to move in with her other friend. Viewers then see Galyna smashing the window of a car — and later in handcuffs.

After seeing snapshots of the brothers’ strained relationships with their respective partners, the trailer ends with Steven Jr. telling them that they’ve been “under FBI investigation.”

“There may be prison time involved,” he explains.

When Does ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2 Premiere?

Season 2 premieres on Bravo Monday, June 30, at 9 p.m. ET. Episodes will also be available the next day on Peacock.

The Love Boat star Jill Whelan has left Los Angeles — and she’s not looking back.

“My sister and her husband also decided to move to Arizona, so they stayed with us and they’re just about to move out into their place,” Whelan, 58, told People in an interview published on Saturday, May 17. “My son is in school in Tucson, and so that’s pretty magical. We got my mom settled in Arizona, so it’s been a convergence by the Whelans.”

Whelan shares son Harrison, 28, with ex-husband Brad St. John and son Grant, 21, with ex-husband Michael Chaykowsky.

The actress married Jeff Knapple in 2017, recently completing a home renovation project.

“It is starting to feel like home,” she gushed to People. “It’s been awesome. We are really happy here. It’s a beautiful place.”

Whelan added, “There’s great culture and the community is growing. My mom is here, we have two sons [who] are already there. We’re recruiting everybody else — and we’re recruiting hard.”

Aside from Arizona being nearby to her sons, Whelan also enjoys spending time at her local gym.

“They have a steam room and a sauna, but they also have a cold plunge,” Whelan stated on Saturday, noting she had a change of heart about taking a frigid dip between steam sessions. “But then I said, ‘You can’t be such a baby. You need to get back in there. You got to be in there for one minute.’ So I went back in, dunked in for about two seconds and was like, ‘Nope, not ready yet.’ I have to say, it was actually really awesome. I do plan on getting to that one-minute goal in the cold plunge at some point.”

Whelan is best known for playing Vicki Stubing, daughter of Captain Stubing (Gavin MacLeod), for six seasons of The Love Boat. She reprised her role for a limited guest arc on 1998’s Love Boat: The Next Wave revival.

“I miss the camaraderie, I miss the fellowship [and] I miss the paycheck,” she quipped of the iconic series during a May 2024 episode of the “Still Here Hollywood” podcast. “I think that’s it because the people, we were so close.”

Since the Love Boat disembarked from the airways, Whelan has prioritized her family and recently hosted a Mother’s Day brunch in Arizona earlier this month.

“An amazing #mothersday in #scottsdale @theeleanoraz Dave and his crew were so special and the food was spectacular,” she gushed via Instagram on May 11. “Can’t wait to try their dinner restaurant @oliversaz — the menu looks perfect! Thanks for making our Mother’s Day perfect!”
