They’re built for hours of real walking — like, ‘New York City sidewalks walking.’ Plus, they won’t clash with your outfit. And right now, they’re marked down from $175 to $137 on Amazon.
Despite the “sport” label, the Ecco trainers more than just workout shoes. Think of them as your everyday, wear-with-anything, all-day-walking sneakers. They’re crafted from breathable textile and premium leather, so they don’t feel hot or stiff. What we love most? The low-key design works with leggings, jeans and casual dresses.

Not to mention, the lightweight shoes come with practical extras like rubber inserts on the sole that provide a good grip on slick, wet pavement or subway steps.
Shoppers approve, too. One fan wrote, “Love these shoes! They are comfy, helped my hurting heel heal, as the sole provides a nice cushion and arch support. They also look nice in both sporty and more casual outfits.”
Another shared, “I use these for daily walks and they are very comfortable. I have narrow feet but feel there is still plenty of room for the average width.”
If you’re after sneakers that can keep up with you all day, now is the time to grab the on-sale cross trainers. At $136 instead of $175, it’s a smart move!
Gia Giudice is asking President Donald Trump to help bring her dad home.
Her father, Joe Giudice, was deported back to Italy in 2019 after he served time in prison on federal fraud charges. He now lives in the Bahamas. But after seeing Trump, 79, pardon Todd and Julie Chrisley earlier this year, Gia, 24, reached out to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
“Let’s bring Joe Giudice, my father, home together,” she wrote via Instagram on Friday, July 4, alongside a video of herself writing a letter to the president.
“Hey, guys, my name is Gia Giudice,” she narrated in the video. “I’m the daughter of Joe Giudice and today I’m using my voice for something deeply personal. My dad was deported over four years ago. Since then, our family has lived in an emotional limbo. No matter how strong we try to be in the absence of a father, of a parent, it’s something that never stops hurting.”
“Growing up, my dad was present at every cheer competition, every dance recital, holiday,” she continued. “He was our provider. Our protector. And he still is, just now from thousands of miles away.”
Gia then pointed to the Chrisleys, who were serving time for fraud-related convictions until their release in May after their family lobbied Trump and his predecessor, Joe Biden, for a pardon.
“Watching the Chrisley family receive a second chance inspired me,” she said. “It showed me that people can be forgiven, that families could be restored and that sometimes the justice system has room for grace. That gave me hope. Hope that maybe my dad could come home too.”

Gia echoed her dad, saying she wanted him to enjoy more moments, big and small, with his family.
“A pardon would mean more than just legal forgiveness. It would mean healing for my sisters, for my mom, for my family and for me,” Gia said. “We’ve missed birthdays, graduations, even the small moments that matter the most. This isn’t just about one man. It’s about a family who deserves to be whole again.”
She ended her video with a final plea for a second chance.
“I’m using my platform to speak not just as a public figure but as a daughter who deeply misses her dad,” she concluded. “We are not asking for sympathy. We are asking for a second chance. So, let’s bring Joe home together. President Donald J. Trump, I really hope you receive these character letters about my dad, Joe Giudice. Love you guys, bye.”
Madison LeCroy was over-the-moon to be pregnant with her second baby — but she didn’t anticipate how hard it would be to film Southern Charm at the same time.
“It was honestly, like, probably one of the worst things I’ve ever had to do,” Madison, 34, exclusively told Us Weekly of the Bravo shooting process while expecting.
She joked, “I don’t know if it was one, being dead sober or two, just being extremely heavy and very hot. I was dying.”
Madison — who announced at the Southern Charm season 10 reunion in March that she was pregnant with her and husband Brett Randle’s first child — confessed filming got “really bad” as she grew bigger and bigger. (Madison shares son Hudson, 12, with ex-husband Josh Hughes.)
Now that her daughter, Teddi, is here, Madison’s tune has changed. The hairstylist exclusively told Us that she gave birth to her little one on Sunday, June 29, when the baby was 34 weeks. The reality star also shared her birthing story via an Amazon Livestream video sponsored by Graco on Thursday, July 3.

Madison said Teddi is “independent” and everyone’s “obsessed” with her just days after her arrival. Now that both mom and baby are home, Madison told Us that she’s been nesting — and not worrying about which of her Southern Charm castmates were in the loop about her news.
Venita Aspen, however, was on the VIP list and was notified before she gave birth.

“I did have to tell Venita because I think she tracks my location, so I was like, ‘Oh, my God, if she sees me here, she’s gonna know,’” Madison recalled to Us. “So Venita knows, but I’m not sure if she told anybody else. But it’s only a matter of time.”
Madison, who joined the Bravo cast in 2019, joked that she was “more shocked” that “none of them have called me” recently, noting she’d been a little quiet on social media.
“They haven’t heard from me in the last three days. So, they’re in trouble,” she said with a laugh, teasing the cast should’ve guessed that’s why she hadn’t checked in.

Over the years, Madison’s Southern Charm friendships have ebbed and flowed and although she’s close with her ex-boyfriend Austen Kroll, she told Us he’s not on her approved babysitting list.
When asked who in the cast is “least likely” to watch Teddi, Madison replied, “Whitney [Sudler-Smith] for sure.”
She then added, “I mean, I don’t [think] any of the guys really. The guys are not allowed, no.”
Another decision Madison has to make is whether Teddi will make her Southern Charm debut this season, or at all. Madison confessed she doesn’t “know yet” if the baby will appear on camera.
“Honestly, we’ll kind of see what she wants to do, but I don’t know if they can afford her,” she said with a laugh. “She’s [pricey].”

Madison’s son, Hudson, has been featured on several episodes of the Bravo series as has her husband, whom she wed in November 2022, so only time will tell if Teddi joins the crew.
In the meantime, Madison is embracing the newborn phase and looking to “soak up” every minute.
Major League Baseball has placed starting pitcher Luis Ortiz on nondisciplinary paid leave as it investigates the first-year member of the Cleveland Guardians for possible involvement in gambling.
The investigation originated with gambling integrity firm IC360, which informed MLB in June of two pitches that Ortiz, 26, threw in two separate starts that triggered what it calls “unusual gambling activity,” according to ESPN.
Ortiz’s paid leave, negotiated between MLB and the MLB Players’ Association, is set to expire at the end of the upcoming All-Star break on Friday, July 18. It could be extended if the investigation goes beyond that date.
The Guardians scratched Ortiz from his scheduled start on the road Thursday, July 3, against the Chicago Cubs. Joey Cantillo got the nod instead as Ortiz returned to Cleveland.

Who Is Luis Ortiz?

Ortiz is a right-handed starting pitcher for the Guardians. He’s in his fourth year in Major League Baseball after spending his first three seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates and coming over to the American League as part of a three-team offseason trade. He is coming off the best season of his young career so far but has struggled in 2025. Ortiz sports a 4.36 ERA with a league-high nine losses.
Why Is MLB Investigating Him?
IC360 flagged two pitches that Ortiz made 12 days apart. In both instances, his first pitch of the inning was a slider well outside the strike zone. Normally, this would not raise any eyebrows. But IC360 noticed increased activity on prop bets for each of those innings on his first pitch being a ball.
What Have Ortiz and the Guardians Said About the Investigation?

Ortiz has yet to break his silence on the investigation as of Friday, July 4.
The Guardians’ president of baseball operations, Chris Antonetti, told the media that the club first learned of the investigation on Wednesday, July 2, and its immediate concern was finding someone to start in his place the following day.
“Our focus is we’ll let the investigative process play out,” he said. “To the extent Major League Baseball or anyone needs our support in that, we will obviously cooperate. But beyond that, there’s really not much we can do.”
Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said he didn’t know how to feel upon learning the news.
“There’s so much unknowns with this, but you know what? Every team goes through adversity, maybe different kinds, but this is a resilient group,” he said. “I’ve been through situations similar to this before in my career as a player, and what would I have wanted to hear? How would I want the manager to have reacted, and that’s what I’m trying to do.”
MLB also released a statement confirming the investigation but not revealing any more than that.
“Cleveland Guardians pitcher Luis Ortiz has been placed on nondisciplinary paid leave through the end of the All-Star break due to an MLB investigation,” the statement read. “We will not comment further until the investigation has been completed.”
What Penalties Could Ortiz Face?
If MLB determines that Ortiz manipulated the outcome of his games — even just a pitch or two at a time — he could face significant repercussions and even a lifetime ban from Major League Baseball.
Since the Supreme Court declared a federal ban on sports betting to be unconstitutional in 2018, most states have legalized the hobby, and professional athletes have already been caught up in it.
In 2024, MLB banned San Diego Padres infielder Tucupita Marcano for life after determining he placed more than 400 bets on baseball, while four other players received one-year suspensions for placing bets on MLB games while in the minor leagues.
MLB fired umpire Pat Hoberg, one of the most accurate ball-strike callers in the game, after determining he shared a sports betting account with a friend who bet on baseball. Hoberg, 38, also allegedly deleted messages that were material to the investigation.
The Bear cast has had more success in their dating lives than their fictional counterparts.
The Hulu series, which premiered in June 2022, explores talented chef Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) as he returns to Chicago to run his older brother Mikey’s (Jon Bernthal) restaurant following his death. Season 1 focused on Carmy’s attempts to help keep the sandwich shop afloat while dealing with his own grief over his brother’s suicide.
“They got a lot of trauma on both sides. Like if even that [was explored] — I don’t think that window is open,” Edebiri exclusively told Us Weekly in January 2023. “But if it were, there would need to be like two seasons where it’s just them doing therapy individually before that would even be an option.”
Edebiri noted that the series didn’t initially plan to explore the coworkers as a couple, adding, “I think when we were making it, neither of us [me nor Jeremy Allen White] were thinking about that. It did feel really nice to get to do something that felt different. There aren’t that many platonic male [and] female relationships.”
White and Timlin, who started dating after several years of friendship, welcomed daughter Ezer in 2018 and tied the knot one year later. The twosome expanded their family again with daughter Dolores in 2020.
After three years of marriage, Timlin filed for divorce in May 2023. White sparked romance rumors with Ashley Moore three months later after they were seen packing on the PDA in Los Angeles but their connection quickly fizzled out. He was later spotted with singer Rosalía on multiple occasions.
In September 2024, White was photographed kissing costar Molly Gordan, who plays his love interest on The Bear.
The comedian, who brings Sydney to life, has chosen not to share much about her offscreen love life. Instead, she has used her social media platform to offer updates on her career.
Before playing Marcus, Boyce remained tight-lipped about his personal life and instead documented him time as a director and fashion designer for the band Odd Future. The alternative hip-hop music collective, which unofficially disbanded in 2016, also featured members such as Tyler, the Creator and Frank Ocean.
The Saturday Night Live alum, who plays Natalie, was previously linked to Fred Armisen in 2010. Elliott exchanged vows with TV writer Bill Kennedy in 2016 after several years of dating. They expanded their family with daughter Edith in 2020 and son William in June 2023.
Before taking on the role of Mikey, Bernthal tied the knot with trauma nurse Erin Angle in 2010. The couple share son Henry (born in 2011), son Billy (born in 2013) and daughter Adeline (born in 2015).
The professional chef, who plays Fak, married long-time girlfriend Tricia Spencer in 2014. They expanded their family with son MacArthur (born in 2016), daughters Rizzo (born in 2018) and Ozzy (born in 2020).
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis made That ‘70s Show fans’ dreams come true when they began dating in 2012.
The costars appeared as Michael Kelso and Jackie Burkhart from 1998 to 2006. Kutcher married Demi Moore in September 2005, but their relationship ended six years later. They finalized their divorce in November 2013.
After reconnecting, Kutcher and Kunis shifted their friendship into a full-fledged romance in 2012. The twosome got engaged in February 2014 and tied the knot in July 2015. In the meantime, they welcomed daughter Wyatt in October 2014 and son Dimitri in November 2016.
“I did a movie called Friends With Benefits. He did a movie that was very similar: No Strings Attached,” the actress recalled on the “WTF” podcast in July 2018. “We lived our movies out, where we were like, ‘Let’s just hook up. Let’s have fun. We’re both single. We both trust each other. Everything’s great.’ None of us wanted tension. OK, great. We hooked up for three months. And just like our movies, one of us caught feelings.”
Scroll down to revisit highlights from Kunis and Kutcher’s relationship:
Kutcher and Kunis met on the set of the 1998 hit comedy series That '70s Show. The onscreen couple attended the 50th annual Primetime Emmy Awards with costars Wilmer Valderrama, Topher Grace, Laura Prepon and Danny Masterson at the Shrine Auditorium in L.A.
In the Season 5 episode "Immigrant Song," Michel Kelso (Kutcher) tries to win back Jackie Burkhart (Kunis). The actress, who shared her first kiss with Kutcher on That '70s Show, confessed on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno in June 2012 that she lied about her age to producers to get the part of Jackie. "Legally I was 14, but I told them I was a little bit older," she said. "I told them I was gonna be 18, which is not technically a lie, cause at one point . . . I was gonna be 18."
Kutcher and Kunis shared a laugh during the FOX Television Critics Association Press Tour at the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel in Hollywood. "People think Ashton has changed," Kunis told Parade magazine in October 2007. "He's still the same old goofball that he used to be."
After That '70s Show ended in 2006, the costars caught up at the 7th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball in L.A. Kutcher married Moore in 2005, and Kunis had been dating actor Macaulay Culkin since 2002.
After Kutcher separated from Moore in November 2011, rumors began swirling that Kutcher was dating Kunis. (She and Culkin split in January 2011). Kutcher and Kunis were photographed sharing a kiss at a party in L.A. in July 2012. But a source told Us Weekly at the time, "They're not exclusive. They are hanging out and seeing where it's going."
The twosome took their relationship public in August when they went on a romantic vacation together to Bali. The former costars even held hands as they walked through the airport. "Mila is throwing caution to the wind!" a source told Us. "She's having fun."
Kutcher took his romance with Kunis to the next level in September by telling her "I love her," a source told Us. The couple of six months had a romantic lunch date in NYC after enjoying a little PDA in Central Park.
Adorable! The couple wore matching Chicago Bears shirts while going for a walk in NYC's West Village. "Ashton and Mila are totally together and loving it," a source told Us in September. "He always had a thing for her and he finally made it happen . . . It is real infatuation right now."
Makeout session in Rome! The couple shared a passionate smooch in Italy, where Kunis was filming scenes for her new movie, The Third Person. In December 2012, Kutcher filed for divorce from Moore a year after their separation was announced. Moore suffered a breakdown and stayed in a rehab facility earlier that year.
After celebrating the holidays together in Kutcher's home state of Iowa, the couple was still going strong in January! The pair stepped out together for a coffee run in L.A.'s Studio City neighborhood. "Listen, in five years I do hope to have a family, and, you know, who knows?" Kunis told the August issue of Interview magazine. "I've always been a big proponent of not working for the sake of working, because I don't want to work for the rest of my life — I want to live."
Taking their romance to the next level! The pair were joined by Kunis' parents Mark and Elvira while going for a stroll in London, where Kunis was filming Jupiter Ascending.
No shame in PDA! The former costars shared a kiss while on vacation in Saint-Tropez, France with royal pal Princess Beatrice and her then-boyfriend, Dave Clark.
Where it all began! Kutcher and Kunis got together with their former That '70s Show costars Valderrama, Grace, Prepon and Masterson for a sing-along reunion, seven years after the series finale. Masterson shared a snapshot of the happy reunion on Instagram for fans to enjoy.
Mila's headed for mommyhood! One month after Us confirmed the couple got engaged, it was revealed that Kunis and Kutcher were expecting their first child together. "This is something they both wanted," an insider told Us. "They are both so happy." The pair attended an L.A. Clippers game together one day before news broke.
Jackie and Kelso, back together again! The future spouses (and parents!) reunited on the small screen when Kunis guest starred on Kutcher's CBS comedy Two and a Half Men. In the episode, Kunis played a free-spirited world traveler named Vivian who Walden (Kutcher) was instantly attracted to.
Cheers! The soon-to-be first-time parents visited the Abita Brewing Company in Abita Springs, Louisiana. The couple dressed casually and were photographed locking lips while sightseeing around town. "You never know who you'll run into at an Abita tour! #jackieandkelso #craftbeer," the company's official Twitter handle tweeted.
Round two! The couple slow-danced during their second day out at the Stagecoach Music Festival in Indio, California. "The best day of my life so far was the proposal. I cried. I was a mess," Kunis later said in the July 2014 issue of Marie Claire. "I love being pregnant," she added. "Two people are allowed in my delivery room. My doctor and my significant other."
Gone country! Kunis flashed her bare baby bump while letting loose with Kutcher at the Stagecoach Music Festival in Indio. "I think they were meant to be," Kutcher's twin brother Michael told Us at the Harboring Hearts 2nd Annual Summer Soiree in NYC. "It'd be like Ross and Rachel getting married [from Friends]."
A treat for his sweet! Kunis and Kutcher exchanged a kiss while grabbing frozen yogurt at Menchie's in L.A. "I eat sauerkraut all day long," Kunis said of her pregnancy cravings to Ellen DeGeneres in May. "[Ashton] assumed that I was gonna have goofy cravings, so he stocked our secondary fridge with weird food — just, like, pickles and sauerkraut, or, like anchovies and ice creams."
Rooting for the home team! Kunis dressed her baby bump in a Dodgers baseball jersey while attending a game with Kutcher. "I never wanted to get married — then things changed, I found the love of my life," the Jupiter Ascending actress said in W magazine's August issue. "We all get movie star crushes. I'm marrying mine."
The couple welcomed their first child together, a baby girl named Wyatt Isabelle, in October 2014. A source told Us at the time, the new parents were “so happy!”
Kutcher gushed over Kunis’ parenting skills during a December 2014 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “The most amazing thing about having a baby is my partner, Mila,” he raved. “She’s the greatest mom, I can’t even. I go to work every day and I come home and she’s, like, perfect. And it just seems like everything went amazing. And I know that something probably didn’t go amazing, but she never tells … it’s unbelievable. She’s incredible.”
The duo made their first public appearance since the birth of their daughter at a Los Angeles Lakers game. They packed on the PDA, even kissing several times, in what would become some of the most iconic photos from their relationship.
Rumors began swirling that Kutcher and Kunis had secretly tied the knot, but the actress was not ready to confirm or deny anything when she appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in February 2015.
The Two and a Half Men actor bragged about his sex life with Kunis while speaking at a tech conference: “Last week, I was walking with Mila … Kunis, who's my fiancée. I get to have sex with her. It's amazing!”
I do! The former costars tied the knot in a hush-hush ceremony at The Secret Garden at Parrish Ranch in Oak Glen, California, over the Fourth of July weekend. Us later revealed that the pair made things legal well before their secret nuptials.
The newlyweds hit the road in an RV while celebrating their honeymoon in Yosemite National Park and Napa Valley, among other locations. Daughter Wyatt accompanied them on their travels.
Baby number two! Kunis’ rep confirmed to Us in June 2016 that the pair were expecting their second child together. She concealed her baby bump during an ice cream outing with her husband days earlier.
The Bad Moms star revealed that her romance with Kutcher began with casual sex after she attended his housewarming party in 2011. "We, oddly, both did a movie called — I did Friends With Benefits, he did a movie called No Strings Attached," she told Howard Stern on his SiriusXM radio show. "If we just paid attention to these movies, we should know that s–t like this does not work out in real life. Well, we clearly didn't pay attention. We shook hands, we're like, 'Let's just have fun!' I mean, literally, we lived out our movies. We literally just had a very open conversation."
Kutcher reminisced about his first That ‘70s Show kiss with his future wife during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show. “We’ve known each other for 20 years. I was 19, she was like 14. I did her chemistry homework for her,” he recalled at the time. “I think I was her first kiss, like, on the show. We have our first kiss memorialized on a TV show!”
Kunis came clean about her husband’s lack of irritating habits. “I can give you an honest answer, and this is going to be the opposite of what you will want to hear, but my husband does not annoy me,” she told E! News. “He doesn’t. He really doesn’t. I don’t know if this happens later, we’ve only been married a handful of years, you know, it’s very much in the honeymoon phase. We still really love and like each other daily.”
Major milestone! Kunis and Kutcher walked the red carpet together for the first time in 17 years when they attended the Sixth Annual Breakthrough Prize Awards.
Their honeymoon wasn’t as picture perfect as it looked. The Spy Who Dumped Me star relived her disastrous RV trip with Kutcher and his parents while appearing on The Tonight Show. “Eight hours into our RV trip … our air conditioner breaks in Bakersfield in 110 degree weather,” she explained. “We almost died on the side of the road when Apple Maps took us on a road … It was a fire road on the side of a mountain. We all had to jump out of the vehicle and walk like, three miles while my father-in-law drove the van and Ashton navigated him over massive boulders because there had just been a massive flood. Guys, this was like, day two.”
While the twosome have That ’70s Show to thank for meeting, Kunis revealed during an interview with on Sunday TODAY With Willie Geist that fans won’t be seeing them onscreen together again. “Probably not going to happen,” she dished. “I can’t look at him and not be like, ‘What are you doing?’ It’s like a weird — no, no, it’s weird.”
Kunis proved that love should be fun when she recalled a hilarious Valentine’s Day present gone wrong from her husband. “It’s the thought that counts, guys, and it was such a beautiful thought,” the Bad Moms actress told DeGeneres about Kutcher’s idea to get her two love birds as a pet for the holiday. “I guess [Ashton] called a Petco-like store, and they were like, ‘Yes, come in, we have lover birds,’ and so he walked in and they were like, ’These are love birds,’” Kunis explained, noting that it wasn’t until they went in to get the animal’s nails cut they were informed what type of bird they actually were. “So now we have really beautiful two little Parakeets and one is, like, teal and one is blue. But they’re not love birds.”
Kutcher gushed over Kunis again in September 2019 after ex-wife Moore made shocking revelations about him in her memoir, Inside Out. (In the book, the Ghost actress claimed that Kutcher persuaded her to have threesomes which he later blamed for his alleged infidelity.) “I was about to push the button on a really snarky tweet,” the Ranch star tweeted on September 24, the memoir’s release date. “Then I saw my son, daughter, and wife and I deleted it.”
“We’re very goofy parents when it comes to our children, but that doesn’t [mean we] have skill,” Kunis said on the “Teach Me Something New” podcast. “I think that’s just [us] being idiots. We’re very comfortable with ourselves acting a fool at home, but maybe that comes from the idea of being comfortable in your own body, and in your own skin, and in your mind and not having a fear of making a fool of yourself.”
Kunis recalled Kutcher’s hilarious reaction after she brought up her interest in appearing on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in the distant future. “I did ask my husband once. I was like, ‘Listen. Later, in like 20 years, 30 years, what do you think of me going on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills?’” she said on the “Andrea Savage: A Grown-Up Woman” podcast. “I’m like, ‘Just for, like, a year.’ He was like, ‘I would kill you.’”
Kutcher joked about Kunis was “cheating” on him as she watched Netflix’s Bridgerton, a series that features very steamy sex scenes. “I stayed up until midnight. I was, like, what’s happening in the show?” she recalled on the Today show. “He’s dead asleep and wakes up in the peak of the fifth episode. He literally goes like this: ‘Are you watching a porno?’ He was so confused about what was happening.”
The entrepreneur remembered being caught off guard, adding, “I didn’t know what was going on. I’m like, ‘Is there someone else in the bed?’ It was terrifying. You are cheating on me with this show.”
Kunis revealed that Kutcher asks her opinion on which companies he should invest in, but she has given him some bad advice in the past, including to not put their money in Bitcoin or Uber. “This happens nightly. The sad part is it happens probably too often,” she explained on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. “The best part about him is he’s really smart about including me in everything and making sure I’m aware of everything that’s happening. He’s also really smart at knowing sometimes you shouldn’t listen to your wife.”
The couple showed off their Los Angeles farmhouse on the June 2021 cover of Architectural Digest. “We wanted a home, not an estate,” she said of their L.A. abode called KuKu Farms. “Building a house from the ground up is no small thing. This was either going to make us or break us.” Kunis, who was pregnant with Wyatt when they began the renovations, added, “When we’re in our home, the world just makes sense.”
Kutcher revealed that his wife convinced him to sell the ticket he had purchased for a trip to space aboard Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic aircraft. “When I got married and had kids, my wife encouraged that it was not a smart family decision to be heading into space when we have young children," he explained. “I was supposed to be on the next flight, but I will not be on the next flight. At some point, I’m going to space.” The actor bought the ticket in 2012, before either of his children were born.
The couple inadvertently kicked off a summer-long debate about celebrity showering habits when Kunis revealed that they don't bathe their kids every day. “I wasn’t that parent that bathed my newborns — ever,” she said during an episode of Dax Shepard's "Armchair Expert" podcast. “Now, here’s the thing: If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there’s no point.” Within days, celebrities including Jake Gyllenhaal, Kristen Bell, Jason Momoa and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson chimed in to share their own shower routines (or lack thereof).
A few weeks later, the duo acknowledged what they started with an Instagram video that showed them bathing Wyatt and Dimitri. “Are you trying to injure them with water?” the Iowa native joked in the clip. “This is ridiculous. What is going on?”
The actor snooped on his wife as Dry January came to a close, catching her ending her month without alcohol a little ahead of schedule. "It's still Dry January, and Mila and I have been doing Dry January. And I think she's breaking Dry January right now," he teased in an Instagram video as he walked over to where Kunis was putting together a cocktail.
The Black Swan star defended her drink, joking, "I work off of the lunar calendar, so it's Wet February for me right now. Don't worry about it."
After Kunis was featured in Time’s 100 Most Influential List of 2022, Kutcher playfully complained about the decision to include his wife in the article via Twitter, writing, “Dear Time magazine, I already lose every argument I have with my wife. You just had to do this didn’t you?"
The Bad Moms star was praised in the piece by friend Zoe Saldaña for the roles she takes on as a wife, mother, daughter, producer, actor and director with the Avatar actress calling her “very much a leader, whether she is running a chat group of fellow mothers, organizing an event, or fundraising for causes she cares about.”
Kutcher underwent a physical transformation while filming Vengeance, adding a mustache to his look. During an August 11 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, he revealed that it was “fun” to see how his wife dealt with it.
“We've been together for seven years,” he said during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on August 11. "She was like, 'Oh, it's like a different guy!'"
“Grandma and Grandpa hopped on a trend 3 months late. But it made us laugh,” Kutcher captioned an Instagram video of the couple taking a social media quiz about their relationship. Per the results, the duo agreed that Kutcher said “I love you” first, is more patient and needs more attention. However, Kunis is seldom wrong and gets more annoying when hungry.
"Give you one guess where we went to celebrate the end of summer," Kutcher captioned Labor Day snaps via Instagram. He and Kunis took a selfie in front of stormtroopers and another in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle, revealing they were at Disneyland.
"The first time I told my wife that I love her was while listening to 'You and Tequila.' I might have had a little too much tequila," Kutcher shared during his Peloton series Our Future Selves. "I showed up drunk at her house, at like two in the morning, and I just started screaming, 'You and tequila make me crazy.'"
He added: "And I told her I love her, and she said, 'Don't say it if you don't mean it. Are you gonna love me in the morning when you wake up from this hangover?' And I woke up the next morning and said, 'I still love you.'"
After the Just Married actor and costar Reese Witherspoon made waves for their out-of-sync chemistry while attending the premiere of their movie, Your Place or Mine, Kunis texted her hubby in an effort to get him to loosen up.
“My wife called me. She texted me and Reese together. She’s like, ‘Guys, you gotta, like, act like you each other.’ And I’m like, ‘What’s going on?’ Here’s the thing: If I put my arm around her and was, like, all friendly with her, I’d be having an affair with her — the rumor would be that I’m having an affair with her," he said during an appearance on the "Chicks in the Office" podcast.
Kunis also emailed the Sweet Home Alabama star separately. “She goes, ‘You guys look so awkward on the red carpet together,’” Witherspoon revealed during an episode of Today With Hoda & Jenna at the time.
Designed for all skin types, this $11 rosehip oil targets signs of aging, dryness and dullness. They key ingredient in The Ordinary pick is rosa canina seed oil, which has a rich composition of essential fatty acids and antioxidants, both of which work on fine lines and scarring. In fact, that’s the only ingredient. And it’s the only ingredient in Middleton’s pick, too, so it makes sense to try the cheaper version.
To use the rosehip oil, The Ordinary recommends using it once a day, ideally at night. Apply a few drops to your hands and press the product into clean skin. That’s it! The result is more radiant-looking skin — and who doesn’t want that?
With all new skincare products, though, you should do a patch test to ensure you don’t have a negative reaction. The formula is vegan, cruelty-free, gluten-free, alcohol-free and silicone-free, though. So, hopefully it’s an automatic winner.
The Ordinary’s quality products and fair prices are what to continue to gain the brand fans. Amazon shoppers agree that it’s worth every penny of the $11.
“This stuff is basically golden hour for your face. A few drops at night and I wake up looking like I drink water and mind my business — even when I don’t,” writes one verified buyer.
“Perfect addition to my skincare routine,” shares a five-star reviewer. “This hydrates & moisturizes your skin so well and brightens it. I also use with my gua sha. You really can’t beat the quality + price + what you get for the bottle size!”
If Middleton is seeing this, we just might convince her to save a little dough for The Ordinary rosehip oil. But, at the very least, we found a new addition to our skincare routine!

“Just a gentle reminder that it’s never OK to comment on a woman’s post, ‘You’re looking more transgender by the day,’ or ‘Your features are so masculine,’” Jessi, 33, wrote to fans via her Instagram Story on Thursday, July 3. “Most of the time these comments don’t get to me, but I’m feeling very emo today and want to never post again so thank you trolls.”
In a follow-up post, Jessi explained that “trolls” were mocking the results of a jaw realignment procedure she’d had to fix her temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ).
“I have a defined jaw line because of a TMJ surgery I got, and I swear it’s the number one thing that people tell me makes me look like a man,” she revealed. “Sorry Karen, I can’t control that?! I also get roasted for getting plastic surgery done but then get endless comments about my looks that make me more insecure so you can never win.”
Later, Jessi returned to her Instagram Story to thank her followers for sending “nice messages,” though she stressed that she wasn’t originally seeking out compliments.
“Thanks so much. It means a lot,” she assured fans. “I think I’m just emotional today because, unrelated, I’m starting my period tomorrow. “
The reality star then explained that she was feeling “very emotional” because she’d been working through some long-standing issues in therapy.
“I’ve been doing a lot of trauma work to unpack childhood issues and other things I’ve been going through, and a lot of things that are coming up are that I’ve always felt not good enough,” she explained to Instagram followers. “I feel like maybe I’m hypersensitive to it, but I do feel like out of all the girls on the cast, I get the most hate for my looks.”

Jessi went on, “It’s because everyone else is so beautiful, but I feel like I get the most criticism for it. Like, I look old. Like, I look like a man. It’s always something.”
“I’m trying to work through trauma of not feeling good enough and clearly I have insecurities, so anyway, not to ramble, don’t be mean to people on the internet,” she concluded. “It’s not nice. You never know what people are going through! It ruins someone’s day. Don’t do that.”
Earlier this year, Jessi confirmed on “The Viall Files” podcast that she was “working through” marriage issues with husband Jordan Ngatikaura, following a bombshell accusation from Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette that he’d slept with her. (Jessi and her Secret Lives of Mormon Wives costars previously visited the Vanderpump Villa cast in Italy in 2024, and she was later allegedly spotted with Marciano in Los Angeles. Jessi has denied kissing Marciano during their L.A. meetup.)
“There’s a lot more to the story, and it’s not what you think it is,” she insisted on the podcast in May.
While Secret Lives of Mormon Wives viewers will have to wait until season 3 for the fallout of the scandal, Jessi promised Us Weekly in June that she would “just be honest” about the situation when cameras rolled.
“I’ll say I’m an open book. Even though there were things I hadn’t shared yet — once I was in the position to share them — I have nothing to hide,” she told Us. “I was willing to just lay it all on the table.”
Jessi also acknowledged, “I’ve made mistakes. My husband has made mistakes. Everyone in their life has made mistakes. I think sharing those is relatable and hopefully people can get something out of it.”
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives seasons 1 and 2 are available to stream via Hulu.
The Fourth of July celebrates the birth of America as a nation, and that nation was born out of war.
War movies shouldn’t glorify the extreme loss of life that comes with armed combat, but they do serve as a reminder of the soldiers who sacrificed themselves for the good of the nation and the world.
To honor that sacrifice, the Watch With Us team has selected the following three must-watch war movies to stream on the Fourth of July weekend.
1917 is one of the rare big-budget World War I movies to be made in the 21st century, and director Sam Mendes masterfully conjures the illusion that the entire film was shot in just two very long takes. (The reality is somewhat different.) On the eve of a major offensive against the German army, British intelligence discovers that their forces are being lured into a lethal trap. With battlefield lines of communication disrupted, Lance Corporals Will Schofield (George MacKay) and Tom Blake (Dean-Charles Chapman) agree to relay the message to the commanding officers.
For Blake, this journey is personal and his brother is on the front line of the forces that may be killed if they don’t arrive in time to halt the battle. But without resources from the British army or anyone to back them up, this may be a one-way trip for the two soldiers.
Christopher Nolan‘s Dunkirk takes place during one of the darkest moments of World War II. In the aftermath of the Battle of France, the allied forces Britain and France are defeated and the remaining troops are trapped by the advancing Nazi army on the beaches of Dunkirk with little hope of escape.
British soldiers Tommy (Fionn Whitehead), Alex (Harry Styles) and Gibson (Aneurin Barnard) are desperate to get off the beach as death surrounds them. The situation is so dire that a civilian fleet sets sail to save the soldiers while putting themselves at risk from German attacks. That story unfolds from the perspective of Peter Dawson (Tom Glynn-Carney), his father Mr. Dawson (Mark Rylance), and their employee, George (Barry Keoghan). Their bravery in the face of danger may make all the difference in the world.
Matt Damon reunited with Jason Bourne director Paul Greengrass for Green Zone, a film inspired by a non-fiction account of the second war in Iraq by Rajiv Chandrasekaran. It’s not meant to be a documentary and dramatic liberties are taken. Damon’s Roy Miller is no Jason Bourne, but he is a dedicated soldier who is increasingly frustrated by his mission to find WMD evidence in Baghdad.
One of the remaining Iraqi generals, Mohammed Al Rawi (Yigal Naor), may have the answers that Miller is looking for. However, the battle for control of Iraq is far from finished, and Miller’s search is seemingly sabotaged by U.S. Department of Defense Special Intelligence officer Clark Poundstone (Greg Kinnear). Miller’s been asking too many questions, and that may undermine the entire justification of the war.
Michael Madsen‘s son shared an emotional tribute after his father’s sudden death.
Luke, 19, shared a photo of himself and Madsen on Friday, July 4, writing via Instagram, “Some Peoples Hero’s Wear Capes. And Fly Shooting Lasers Out Of Their Eyes. Some peoples Hero’s Can Fight Off Armies And Overcome Anything.”
“My Hero Wore A Cowboy Hat. My Hero Stood Taller And Stronger Than Any Man I’ve Ever Met. My Hero Understood Me Better Than Anyone,” Luke continued. “My Hero Is The Coolest Most Badass Human Being I Know. Not Only Was My Hero A Famous Tough Guy Movie Star. My Hero Was My Father. And He Was. Damn Good One. Love You Pops. I’ll See You Again Someday.”
Madsen, who was known for roles in Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs, died on Thursday, July 3, at age 67. After Madsen was found unresponsive at his home in Malibu, California, deputies arrived and he was pronounced dead at the scene. No foul play is suspected in Madsen’s death, according to the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department. Authorities believe Madsen died from natural causes.
“In the last two years Michael Madsen has been doing some incredible work with independent film including upcoming feature films Resurrection Road, Concessions and Cookbook for Southern Housewives, and was really looking forward to this next chapter in his life,” Madsen’s managers Smith and Susan Ferris and publicist Liz Rodriguez told Us Weekly in a statement on Thursday. “Michael was also preparing to release a new book called Tears for My Father: Outlaw Thoughts and Poems, currently being edited.”
The statement concluded: “Michael Madsen was one of Hollywood’s most iconic actors, who will be missed by many.”
Michael’s sister, Virginia Madsen, also broke her silence.
“My brother Michael has left the stage. He was thunder and velvet. Mischief wrapped in tenderness. A poet disguised as an outlaw,” Virginia, 63, wrote via Instagram on Thursday. “A father, a son, a brother — etched in contradiction, tempered by love that left its mark.”
“We’re not mourning a public figure. We’re not mourning a myth — but flesh and blood and ferocious heart,” she noted. “Who stormed through life loud, brilliant and half on fire. Who leaves us echoes — gruff, brilliant, unrepeatable — half legend, half lullaby.”
Virginia added: “I’ll miss our inside jokes, the sudden laughter, the sound of him. I’ll miss the boy he was before the legend. I miss my big brother. Thank you to everyone reaching out with love and memory. In time, we’ll share how we plan to celebrate his life. But for now — we stay close, and let the silence say what words can’t.”
Luann de Lesseps has had lots of high-profile romances throughout the years.
The Real Housewives of New York star married Count Alexandre de Lesseps in 1993 and went on to welcome daughter, Victoria, and son, Noel, in 1994 and 1996, respectively. The twosome eventually called it quits in 2009.
Following her divorce from Count Alexandre, Luann was linked to Hugh Grant, Jacques Azoulay and Harry Dubin before she started dating Tom D’Agostino Jr. in 2015. The pair tied the knot in December 2016, but split in August 2017 amid rumors that D’Agostino Jr. cheated on Luann.
“I don’t think he could give up his bachelor life to lead a married life the way I wanted to. I think he really loved me. I really do,” she shared on Watch What Happens Live in September 2017. “He still loves me. At this age, it’s really hard to change people … I expected more. I expected him to change.”
After her divorce from D’Agostino, Luann has continued to have other relationships throughout the years, including Rich Super, Garth Wakeford and Joe Bradley. Luann began appearing on Bravo’s dating series Love Hotel in April 2025.
“The guys were good looking and have careers and were interesting. … I’m a big manifester. So I said to myself, ‘I’m going to find love,’” she told Us Weekly in May 2025, noting that she “connected” with a man “further down the road” while filming the show.
Keep scrolling to learn more about Luann’s dating history throughout the years:
Keith Hernandez
Before she got married for the first time, the New York Mets player alleged that he had a “friends with benefits” situation with Luann.
“I met her in Manhattan, somewhere I forget, and she was absolutely gorgeous. I chased her like a hound,” Hernandez recalled on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen in May 2018.

Luann married Alexandre in 1993, and the twosome went on to welcome daughter Victoria in 1994 followed by son Noel in 1996. After 17 years of marriage, the twosome called it quits in 2009, one year after season 1 of RHONY premiered.
“My family knew my marriage was in trouble,” she told producers on the RHONY 2016 special. “But the Housewives didn’t know. I didn’t want it to be fodder for the show.”
Luann told the outlet that her friend sat her right behind Grant and said he would take a shot with her.
“Before you know it, we are taking shots and making out … heavily at the table,” she shared. “My brother was like, ‘I can’t believe you’re making out with Hugh Grant,’ and I was like, ‘Neither can I.’”
Later that month, Grant shared a screenshot of a headline about the story to his Instagram Story, noting that he did remember “meeting a charming RHNY in a restaurant.”
“But I’d like to stress it was about 15 years ago. I don’t recall shots or kissing but her memory might be better than mine,” he said.
Luann responded to Grant’s comments via an exclusive statement to Us.
“Obviously, my memory is better than his!” she joked. “He’s right it was 15 years ago. We were both not married at the time, I had just divorced Alex. He was ever so charming and couldn’t have been nicer.”
Jacques Azoulay
Following her divorce from Alexandre and alleged makeout session with Grant, Luann began dating wine entrepreneur Azoulay in 2010. Although the twosome were serious and even began discussing having a family together, Azoulay and Luann ended up going their separate ways in 2013.
“They are at different points in their life now and have mutually agreed it is best,” Luann’s rep confirmed to Us at the time. “Luann is upset, but it’s amicable and they remain friends. Jacques has been a wonderful part of her life.”
Harry Dubin
During season 6 of RHONY, which aired in 2016, Luann had a brief on camera hookup with Dubin, who was once married to her costar Aviva Drescher and linked to castmates Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer.
Several years later, in May 2020, Dubin shared that he had hooked up with Luann after meeting her at one of Morgan’s cocktail parties and going home together.
“That’s the way Luann is,” Dubin said on an episode of the “Behind the Velvet Rope with David Yontef” podcast. “She goes after what she wants and she gets it. You can’t really deny that.”
Tom D’Agostino Jr.

D’Agostino Jr. and Luann were introduced by their mutual friend, Dorinda Medley, in 2015 and ended up getting engaged a few months later in February 2016. Despite allegedly cheating on her days before their engagement party, D’Agostino Jr. and Luann tied the knot in December 2016.
“I feel really lucky to have a second chance. At over 50 years old, I’m getting married again,” Luann said on the Steve Harvey Show at the time. “It’s very easy to walk away. The hard part is staying and working it out.”
After seven months of marriage, the twosome announced that they were getting a divorce.
“We care for each other very much, hope you respect our privacy during this sad time!” Luann wrote via X in August 2017.
“Luann and Rich started hooking up after she got back from rehab [in July],” a source told Us, at the time. “It wasn’t a serious relationship; they were just having fun. He didn’t break up with her, he is still her agent, and the two both decided to stop hooking up and keep things professional.”
Less than one year later, Luann revealed that she started dating Super again after giving him another chance.
“Listen, when there’s a connection, there’s a connection,” she told TMZ in October 2019. “He’s my agent and, you know, we’re just killing it on our cabaret tour and we’re having the best time. He’s the best. He’s the best agent in Hollywood. I’m a very lucky girl.”
The pair seemingly split a few months later.
Garth Wakeford
Luann started dating Wakeford after meeting on Hinge in August 2020. The twosome’s relationship was short-lived as they went on to split in 2021.
“Luann and Garth broke up a few months ago,” a source told Us in April 2021.
Following her brief fling with Wakeford, Luann began dating Gaytan after meeting him on a trip to Tulum.
“They were really into each other when they first met,” an insider told Us in May 2021. “He was catering to her and she got special treatment at the resort. He took special care of her when she was down there and they really hit it off.”
The pair seemingly split later that year.
Joe Bradley
According to an eyewitness source for Us, in January 2024, Luann and the Southern Hospitality star were seen “all over each other” at The Dream Hotel in New York City after flirting while taping Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.
While a rep for Bradley denied getting cozy with Luann, he finally confessed to kissing her in January 2025.
“I think that enough time has passed and I’m sick of the rumors and the lies,” he told Us, claiming he was “never self-conscious or trying to hide the fact” that he kissed her because Luann’s “iconic.”
While on the Love Hotel, Luann struck up a connection with Quine and the twosome have been seeing each other ever since.
“[James] said to me, ‘You know [Luann], I live in Hawaii, I can’t be there with you all the time. It is totally OK if you date, and when we see each other, we see each other, because I love you,” Luann said during a Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen episode in June 2025.
“I will say that I got a brand new ring, and I’m a very happy girl,” she told Us at the time. “And that’s all I can say about that for now.”
Michael Riemerschmid
Although she is still seeing Quine, Luann has continued to also spark romance rumors with Riemerschmid after being spotted in public on several occasions in 2025.
Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin’s daughter Delilah Belle Hamlin opened up about how much better she feels since getting sober a few years ago following her rehab stay for depression.
“I love being sober. I feel so ‘pick me’ when I’m like, ‘I’m sober,’ but whatever,” Delilah, 27, said on the Friday, July 4, episode of her parents’ “Let’s Not Talk About the Husband” podcast. “I love rehab. I love it.”
Her dad, 73, noted that his eldest daughter wasn’t “that messed up” when she went to rehab in 2018, but Delilah said her treatment was more about her mental health. (Harry and Rinna, 61, also share daughter Amelia Gray, 24, and Harry shares son Dimitri, 45, with ex Ursula Andress.)
“It was more so I just felt so out of control of my own emotions,” she explained. “I was so depressed, I was so anxious. It wasn’t even me, like, being addicted, it was more so recognizing that I needed more help. I needed to do intense therapy. It was just, like, a self-realization and I just needed help — it was a cry for help. I called you guys one day like, ‘Hey, I think I need to go to rehab, I’m not quite sure what that is.’”
Looking back now, seven years later, Delilah has no regrets.
“It was the best decision of my life,” she explained. “No one forced me to go. I was like, ‘I wanna go.’ I’m so lucky that you guys could afford it at the time and help me through it. I love it.”
In the future, Delilah wants to open her own rehab facility, though she’s now currently focused on modeling and making music.

Delilah first opened up about her rehab experience in 2019, revealing that she’d checked into a facility shortly after enrolling as a student at New York University.
“I wanted to share this with you guys today because it could help at least one person struggling with anxiety and or depression,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “This time last year I was in rehabilitation. I moved to New York to start my journey as a student at NYU. Not long after I moved to New York I began having terrible depression. I started attracting negative people into my life because my thoughts were so negative.”
She added, “I knew the way I was living was unhealthy and detrimental to my mental health so I called my mom and told her I needed help.”
After a stay in February 2018, Delilah returned again in June of that year.
“I learned so much about being independent, feeling less shameful and guilty, I learned about self-love instead of self-deprivation and so much more,” she told her followers. “I worked through traumas and self-love. But most importantly I learned what self-respect meant.”
In February 2022, Delilah celebrated six months of sobriety after accidentally overdosing on prescription medication the year prior. The model was hospitalized in November 2021 after mixing propranolol, which is used to treat heart problems and anxiety, with Benadryl.
Netflix rarely starts a month without dropping several new shows, and July is no exception.
It certainly helps to have a three-day holiday weekend so early in July, because that’s the perfect time to binge-watch to your heart’s content.
If you’re looking for suggestions for the holiday, the Watch With Us team has picked out three underrated Netflix shows you need to watch this weekend.
Our picks include a dark fantasy series that’s reaching its conclusion, a long-running CBS sitcom and a documentary that’s taking Netflix by storm.
The Lord of Dreams returns in the second season of The Sandman, which is based on the critically acclaimed fantasy comic book series. Morpheus (Tom Sturridge) has slowly recovered from his century in captivity and reclaimed his role as the ruler of the Dreaming. He is the personification of dreams, nightmares, and stories.
But all stories come to an end, and Morpheus’ time is running out. Can a dream truly die? Morpheus is going to find out, but he still has a few wrongs to put right before he can take his final bow.
For a Chuck Lorre sitcom, Mom sure has a lot of serious moments, and the series doesn’t shy away from some very dark material at times. Anna Faris stars as Christy Jolene Plunkett, a woman who has reclaimed her sobriety after years of addiction to alcohol, drugs and gambling. At the start of the show, Christy attempts to reboot her life and start fresh with her children, Violet (Sadie Calvano) and Roscoe (Blake Garrett), neither of whom fully trusts her to remain sober.
Christy’s mother, Bonnie Plunkett (Allison Janney), is also a recovering addict, and they’ve been estranged for a long time. It takes real effort on both of their parts to find some measure of forgiveness and a willingness to coexist. It’s not always a smooth or easy process, but they are a family and they’re trying to make it work.
‘Attack on London: Hunting the 7/7 Bombers’ (2025)
Twenty years ago this week, London was rocked by four suicide bombers who struck the city’s public transportation lines during the morning rush hour. The terrorists recognized the lack of security and took advantage of it. Attack on London: Hunting the 7/7 recaps those terrible events and the toll they took on the survivors and the entire United Kingdom.
It also chronicles one of the largest manhunts in the history of the country as authorities chase every lead to find any remaining terrorists before they can launch another vicious attack on the public.
Attack on London: Hunting the 7/7Bombers is streaming on Netflix.

“I mean I get it, it was a sick show, but l’ve really moved on. It’s not happening,” he captioned the post. “The excitement of the possibilities for me are far greater than the past. I’ve done it ladies and gents.”
Purcell continued: “I’m doing what I wanna do, not what people think I should do, nor what I can do with my eyes closed that’s a boring way moving forward professionally and in life I believe. Uncertainty is far more appealing.”
The clarification comes as Hulu is currently working on a reboot that is set in the same world as the original but will feature a whole new story and cast. So far, the upcoming show has cast Emily Browning, Lukas Gage, Ray McKinnon and Margo Martindale.
Prison Break, which aired on Fox from 2005 to 2009, introduced Us to Purcell and Wentworth Miller as fictional brothers Lincoln Burrows and Michael Scofield. The show followed Miller’s character as he got himself arrested in order to help his wrongfully convicted brother escape from prison to avoid death row and to prove his innocence.
Purcell and Miller, 53, reprised their characters in The Final Break, which was a TV movie that concluded the series before a revival was briefly ordered in 2017. Fox later confirmed that an additional season was in early development, but in 2020, Miller said he was done with the franchise.
“I’m out. of PB. Officially,” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “If you were a fan of the show, hoping for additional seasons … I understand this is disappointing. I’m sorry.”
Purcell responded in the comments section, writing, “It was fun mate. What a ride it was. Fully support and understand your reasoning. Glad you have made this decision for your health and your truth. Love ya brother.”
Miller, who came out in 2013, elaborated that he was “officially” stepping away because he no longer wished to play straight characters.
“I just don’t want to play straight characters,” he added. “Their stories have been told (and told). So. No more Michael. … If you’re hot and bothered [because] you fell in love with a fictional straight man played by a real gay one … That’s your work.”
Former Phoenix Mercury interim head coach Nikki Blue is suing the organization, alleging unequal treatment and pay based on her race and gender.
The suit, filed Thursday, July 3, in U.S. District Court in Arizona, also alleges the Mercury fired Blue, 41, as retaliation for her complaints of unequal treatment.
Blue joined the Mercury in 2022 as an assistant coach and ascended to the interim head coaching role in the middle of the 2023 season after head coach Vanessa Nygaard was fired. The Mercury went 7-21 under Blue’s leadership, and she was not retained.
Blue, who is Black, claims she was paid $250,000 in her interim role, less than the $375,000 that Nygaard, who is white, made. She also accuses the Mercury of setting her up to fail by fielding an uncompetitive team in 2023.
That team, led by Brittney Griner and Diana Taurasi, saw a number of players leave the previous offseason, though of those departures, only Kia Nurse is still playing in the WNBA two years later. The 2023 Mercury were also missing six-time All-Star Skylar Diggins, who did not play due to maternity leave.
After the season, the Mercury hired current head coach Nate Tibbetts, who is white. He is making more than $1 million per season, according to the AP. The Mercury went 19-21 in his first season and are 12-6 so far in 2025.
“Despite her exemplary record and professionalism, Ms. Blue was cast aside, demeaned and denied the opportunity to lead,” the law firm Mesidor PLLC, co-counsel on the case, said in a statement via the AP. “This lawsuit is not just about one woman’s career — it’s about the pervasive, institutional disrespect for Black women in sports leadership.”
Phoenix Suns and Mercury senior vice president of communications Stacey Mitch released a statement on Thursday attempting to discredit Sheree Wright, Blue’s attorney, who has been behind several lawsuits against the organization in the past, including the one that alleged former player Sophie Cunningham had an affair with team CEO Josh Bartelstein. (Both Cunningham and Bartelstein denied the allegation.)
“This is the fifth lawsuit brought against the organization by Sheree Wright, an attorney who has been disciplined twice by the Supreme Court of Arizona for committing numerous violations of the rules of professional conduct — including making false and unsupported allegations of racial bias against a judge,” Mitch said. “Like Ms. Wright’s other cases, this case is completely meritless.

Malachi Barton and Freya Skye are gearing up just in case their newest film, Zombies 4, ever happens off screen, though they aren’t sure that they would be able to survive on their skills alone.
“My survival skill would be clinging onto the people who would survive and hoping that they would take care of me,” Skye, 15, exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of the July 10 premiere of the film. “I think at the last minute, I think Milo [Manheim] and Chandler [Kinney] are surviving.”
“I think Chandler for sure is surviving,” Barton, 18, said in agreement.
Kinney, 24, known for her role as Willa in Zombies 2 and 3, has also appeared in Girl Meets World, Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin and season 33 of Dancing with the Stars. In Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires, the newest installment of the Disney Channel original film series, Barton and Skye star alongside Milo Manheim (Zed) and Meg Donnelly (Addison), as they take off on a summer road trip after completing their first year of college. Zed and Addison are forced to face off with two new groups of monsters in the fourth installment of the Zombies films.
Barton and Skye’s characters, Victor and Nova, respectively, are vampires from rival clans. This is their introduction to the film series and Zed and Addison aim to bridge the gap between the groups of Daywalkers and NightWalkers. Barton told Us if it came down to it, Manheim, 24, may be a little too clumsy to survive the zombie apocalypse.
“Does Milo not give off, like, trip and fall and accidentally get bitten by a zombie,” Barton asked his costar.
“Yeah, [he’s] giving blending in with the zombies,” Skye responded. “He’s giving I’m one of you.”
“Or is he literally giving … I AM one of you,” Barton joked.
Barton offered Mekonnen Knife (MK), who plays Vargas in the new film, as another option as someone who may be able to survive the apocalypse. He was quickly shot down by Skye.
“No. I think MK would be like … I think he would want to capture it on his phone and get eaten for it,” Skye told Us.
Barton and Skye ultimately agreed that Kinney would be the only survivor.
“This whole cast is … everyone except for Chandler is not surviving,” Barton told Us.
Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires will premiere on Disney Channel on Thursday, July 10, and available for streaming on Disney+ on Friday, July 11.
A YouTuber has apologized for spraying baby oil outside a Manhattan courthouse where Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal trial verdict was announced on Wednesday, July 2.
“I’m learning, I’m listening and I’m moving forward with even more care and clarity,” Armon Wiggins wrote via Instagram on Thursday, July 3. “Yesterday, a clip of me outside the courthouse went viral and was taken out of context. What started as a lighthearted moment [and] part of a long-running joke with my audience was misinterpreted as support for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. That was never my intention.”
Some thought Wiggins’ courthouse antics made light of trial testimony from Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie (full name Casandra Ventura) about the use of baby oil at alleged “freak off” parties. (Diddy has denied all allegations of wrongdoing.)
“For the past 60 days, I’ve worked hard to cover this case with honesty and objectivity,” Wiggins insisted. “That moment was about sharing a bit of levity with the community that’s been on this journey with me, nothing more.”
He went on, “Still, I fully understand how the timing and optics may have felt hurtful, especially to survivors of abuse. I sincerely apologize to anyone who was impacted or disappointed. This has been a reminder to move with greater care, and I remain committed to doing this work with integrity and heart.”
Wiggins is a comedian and influencer who has covered the Diddy scandal for a steady stream of content. He has amassed more than 100,000 followers on Instagram and 285,000 on YouTube.
Cassie testified in May that baby oil was frequently used in the freak offs at Diddy’s request. She recalled Diddy, 55, allegedly ordering her to step into an apparent kiddie pool filled with baby oil at a party at Montage Beverly Hills.
“If Sean wanted it to happen, that was what was going to happen, there was no way around it,” she told the court. “We used 10 bottles of baby oil, regular-size.”

She alleged that Diddy was so consumed with participants “glistening” at his alleged freak offs that she used to reapply baby oil “every five minutes” and said rooms where these freak offs took place were typically covered in baby oil as well.
Cassie testified that urine and blood were sometimes present on bedsheets as well during the freak offs because Diddy would allegedly demand that escorts urinate on her. (Cassie claimed that she was “expected” to participate in freak offs even while menstruating.)
Federal authorities reportedly found more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant when they raided Diddy’s properties in March 2024, according to NBC News. Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and has denied all of the allegations against him.
Diddy was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution on Wednesday but was acquitted of the arguably more serious charges of racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking. He could face up to 20 years behind bars, but many legal experts have predicted it’s unlikely he’ll actually serve that much time.
Following the verdict announcement, Cassie’s attorney Douglas H. Wigdor praised her for having “the courage to file her civil complaint” against Diddy in November 2023, thereby “pav[ing] the way” for the rapper’s eventual criminal trial.
Cassie sued Diddy over accusations of sexual and physical abuse throughout their relationship, which lasted off and on from 2007 to 2018. The disgraced mogul denied her claims. Diddy and Cassie settled out of court one day after the lawsuit was filed. In May 2024, CNN published a hotel surveillance video of Diddy kicking and grabbing Cassie in 2016. He later apologized for his actions in a video shared via Instagram.
“Although the jury did not find Combs guilty of sex trafficking Cassie beyond a reasonable doubt, she paved the way for a jury to find him guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution,” Widgor told Us Weekly. “By coming forward with her experience, Cassie has left an indelible mark on both the entertainment industry and the fight for justice.”
The attorney concluded, “We must repeat — with no reservation — that we believe and support our client who showed exemplary courage throughout this trial. She displayed unquestionable strength and brought attention to the realities of powerful men in our orbit and the misconduct that has persisted for decades without repercussion.”
Cassie scored a legal victory following Wednesday’s verdict when her legal team formally asked Judge ArunSubramanian to block Diddy’s attorneys’ attempts to have him released from custody on a $1 million bond, pending sentencing. The judge ultimately denied Diddy’s bond request and ordered him to remain in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center for now.

Vanderpump Rules alum Lala Kent gave birth to her second baby 10 months ago — and she’s already working on expanding her family again.
Kent, 34, who shares daughter Ocean, 4, with ex Randall Emmett and conceived daughter Sosa via sperm donor, told Parents in an interview published on Thursday, July 3, that she is planning to get pregnant again within the next year.
“I feel like we sunk right into this new dynamic. It is so fulfilling and it’s difficult, but we’re a well-oiled machine,” she explained about being a mom of two. “And I just don’t think I’m done. I think I need one more. I am loving it so much that I’m not ready for the stages to be over as they pass.”
Kent noted that she wanted 10-month-old daughter Sosa to be “well into her 2s” when the new baby arrives.
“I think that’s a good age gap. I didn’t love that Ocean and Sosa are three and a half years apart,” she added. “I like sticking to the two and a half range. But you know what? The universe has a plan for me, and we just roll with it.”
According to Kent, her daughter Ocean would be a big sister to “five more babies” if she had it her way.
“She’s really taken on the role of being a big sister. Ocean is only 4, but she’s always seemed like an old soul and just wise beyond her years,” Kent shared. “When Sosa came into the mix, it just gave Ocean a different level of confidence. She really enjoys helping me out, even throwing away a dirty diaper. That was huge for her. She’s like, ‘I touched a poopy diaper!’ She really sunk into becoming a little caretaker, and it’s adorable to watch.”
“Ocean was so young when she had to start bouncing back and forth, so it’s just very much a part of her norm. She knows that she always comes back to this house,” Kent explained. “Ocean just finished her first year of preschool, and the school said she’s a little girl who is happy, healthy and thriving. And when you have such an up-and-down relationship with your coparent, you worry how that will affect your child. Even though she’s 4, kids are like sponges. They can feel our energy. So to know that she’s doing so well given the circumstances — it’s all you could hope for.”
The former couple faced major ups and downs after they went public in 2018. Two years after getting engaged, Us Weekly confirmed in November 2021 that Kent and Emmett called it quits amid infidelity rumors. They continued to hash out their issues in a custody battle that ended earlier this year.
“After over three years, we have signed an agreement that is best for our daughter, Ocean. So I’m very, very happy about that,” Kent shared on Amazon Live in March.
Kent noted that the custody battle “has weighed on [her] heart and soul” for a while, adding, “I’m sure it’s been the same for my ex, and I’m just so happy that we were able to get to a good place for the well-being of our kid.”
“I like to say I’ve been talking to men because dating means that there’s a potential for it to go somewhere. And I just don’t want that right now,” she noted. “If I start dating, you’re taking me away from my children physically. But what’s even worse? If my heart gets involved and you do something to make it hurt, you will take me mentally away from my children. That means I could be in the same room as my kids, and I’m not present. I just cannot allow it.”
Kent concluded: “Ocean was 7 months old when I was taken away from her emotionally, spiritually, physically — all the things — because I was in fight mode [with my ex]. I will not allow it to happen again.”
