As central Texas faces ongoing devastation due to flash flooding, celebrities are using their voices to spread awareness and inspire support.
While Shakira donated concert proceeds taken from her Saturday, July 5, show to the Catholic Charities of San Antonio for subsequent disaster relief, Jennifer Garner, Khloé Kardashian, Matthew McConaughey and other stars took to social media to encourage similar assistance.
With Kerr County declared a state of emergency by President Donald Trump on Sunday, July 6, the floods began in the early hours of Friday, July 4, when waters swept through Texas Hill County to push the Guadalupe River up by 26 feet in just 45 minutes.
As of the late hours of Sunday, more than 82 people died as a result of the extreme weather event including at least 28 children in Kerr County alone, where a Christian summer camp resulted in a string of youth fatalities.
Celebs Fight Back on Social Media
Among the loss of life within Camp Mystic was a nine-year-old cousin within Kansas City Chiefs owners’ Clark Hunt’s family. Clark’s wife, Tavia Hunt, reacted to the heartbreaking news via an Instagram Story shared on Sunday evening.

The reality star shared her heartbreak via an Instagram Story posted on Sunday. “I can’t stop thinking about the families in Texas and the overwhelming pain they’re going through right now,” she wrote alongside a broken heart emoji. “As a mother, this kind of tragedy hits in a place words can’t reach. The loss of those sweet, innocent children is something I can’t fully process, there are just no words for this.”
Kardashian continued, “My heart is so deeply aching for every parent, every family member, and every community. Please know that so many of us are carrying you in our hearts right now and I’m praying with everything I have in me for those still missing. Texas, we are holding you close.”

Praying for even a shred of a miracle — to find a child alive in the wake of this boundless disaster,” Duff wrote. “Tears fall every time I imagine one of these families receiving bad news … waiting … or entire families lost. Just gone. It’s just too much to comprehend.”
The singer continued, “Beautiful Texas, I love you. To all the boots on the ground — I love you,” before touching on her own Texas camp memories from childhood.
“I was — and forever will be — that girl with a wild hearted, fierce love for my barefoot summers at camp in the Texas Hill country,” she wrote. “It imprints on your soul. It changes your identity. It’s a realm of true magic. You could never imagine an ending this tragic. I’m just so deeply, absolutely sorry. Your loss is felt across the world.”

One year after confirming she found love with fellow Love Island alum Theo Campbell, Olivia Kaiser is pregnant with the pair’s first child.
The Love Island USA season 3 winner, 33, took to Instagram on Sunday, July 6, to reveal her exciting news. “Our sweetest little secret … we’ve been enjoying some time off the grid — embracing the quiet, the love, and the magic of what’s to come,” Kaiser wrote alongside a carousel of snaps taken during a recent maternity photo shoot. “Now it’s time to let you in on the journey… our little one is arriving soon.”
The post included 13 photos of Kaiser and Campbell, who served as a castoff during season 3 of Love Island UK, embracing their special time — and one another — in a lush field beside a tranquil lake. One shot also featured a board that revealed the child’s due date, with its text reading, “Our little adventure begins Dec 2025.” (An additional Instagram Story posted hours later confirmed that Kaiser’s due date is December 5, making her just “shy of five months pregnant.”)
The couple, both dressed in top-to-toe white ensembles, also held a print out of Kaiser’s sonogram as well as a tiny onesie with the words “Coming soon” written across the front with itty bitty foot prints.

Kaiser celebrated her news further via her Instagram Stories that night, revealing that “the love we’ve both received already is overwhelming.” Another Story promised the couple would be “uploading a YouTube video VERY soon.”
For his part, Campbell, also 33, shared his partner’s grid post via his own Instagram account that evening.
Kaiser confirmed via an Instagram Story in June 2024 that she was dating Campbell. Posting a photo of the duo feeding one another pizza while on vacation, Kaiser wrote, “He not only accepts but encourages me to be 100% myself. I’m never TOO much or not enough. I 
him.”
At the time, she also confirmed to fans that he had met Campbell’s family and made plans to stay connected with him despite physical distances.
In the months that followed the pair’s romance going public, Kaiser shared several special moments with her man via Instagram, including spending quality time together during the 2024 Christmas and New Year period.
In June, Campbell shared his own photos from recent outdoor outings with Kaiser, which included relaxed pool time together, hiking in proximity to stunning waterfalls and watching the sunset together in the middle of nature.

Hours after Cierra Ortega’s shock Love Island USA exit was aired, her parents broke their silence about the controversy that sent her packing.
Taking to their daughter’s Instagram Stories in the late hours of Sunday, July 6, “Cierra’s parents” shared a lengthy post that addressed the resurfaced racist post that resulted in Cierra leaving the villa.
“As Cierra’s parents, this has been one of the most painful weeks of our lives,” the post began. “We’ve seen the posts, the headlines, the hurt and the hate. And while Cierra hasn’t seen any of it yet, we have. And so have the people who love her.”
The post, written in white text against a black background, continued, “We’re not here to justify or ignore what’s surfaced. We understand why people are upset, and we know accountability matters.”
Cierra's Team Addressed Racist Post Before Her 'Love Island USA' Exit
The message then showed support for Cierra, underscoring the online criticism the post attracted in the week leading up to Sunday’s episode and in the episode’s aftermath. “What’s happening online right now has gone far beyond [accountability],” the post continued. “The threats. The cruel messages. The attacks on her family, her friends, even her supporters, it’s heartbreaking. It’s uncalled for. No one deserves that kind of hate.”
The post also pointed out that while Cierra is no longer on the show, she is still away from home and yet to absorb the criticism her post has received. “She hasn’t had the chance to process any of this or speak for herself,” the post continued. “But we know our daughter. We know her heart. And when she returns, we believe she’ll face this with honesty, growth and grace.”
It concluded with a request for compassion towards Cierra. “For patience. For basic human decency. Not just for her, but for everyone caught in the middle of this,” the post read. “With love, Her family.”
During Sunday night’s episode, narrator Iain Stirling announced that Cierra “left the villa due to a personal situation,” which in turn left partner Nic Vansteenbergghe single.
In the weeks leading up to the episode, multiple social media users spotted Cierra’s controversial past post, which included a racially offensive slur. Once the post spread on social media, Cierra’s friend MJ Hedderman addressed the resurfacing via Cierra’s Instagram account.
“Hi guys, I see your comments concerning someone I love and care about. I want to be clear that I do not condone racism, bigotry or hate in any way shape or form, nor was I aware of the recent screenshots until they were posted,” MJ’s Instagram Story from Friday, July 4, read. “I discovered it at the same time as all of you did.”
In addition to MJ’s response, Cierra’s other friend Johnnie Olivia also took it upon herself to address her friend’s old post. “I’m sure many of you have noticed that I’ve refrained from talking about Love Island and have stopped publicly supporting my friend on the show. This was after I saw a post involving a racial slur for the first time,” Johnnie wrote via an Instagram statement released on Friday. “I loved supporting her during her time on the show, but once I came across that post, I felt it was necessary to take a step back.”
As for action on the Island, Sunday’s episode showed that in Cierra’s absence, Nic rekindled his connection with Olandria Carthen and they ended up recoupling ahead of the season’s final week.
New episodes of Love Island USA will be released six days a week — except for Wednesdays — on Peacock.
