Rebecca Gayheart's Heart-Wrenching Talk with Daughters About Eric Dane's ALS New

Rebecca Gayheart's Heart-Wrenching Talk with Daughters About Eric Dane's ALS

Rebecca Gayheart is looking back at a difficult conversation with her and Eric Dane’s daughters about his ALS diagnosis. “When the call came in … one of my daughters was in the bathroom, and I said, ‘Hold on, honey, I have to take a phone call. I’m going to go in my closet,’” Gayheart, 55, told Drew Barrymore on the Wednesday, November 4, episode of her “Personal Space” podcast. Gayheart recalled having a “really difficult” phone call, which her daughter overheard. “When I came out of the closet, she goes, ‘What's going on?’ And I was like, ‘Honey, I'm going to talk to you about it later,’” she said. Gayheart, Dane and their daughters — Billie, 16, and Georgia, 14 — then met with their family therapist to talk about the Euphoria actor’s health. “We told them what ALS was,” she recalled. “It was really hard to tell them because they had so many questions, and they'd never heard of ALS before. When we said this is a disease that had no cure, they’d be like, ‘But dad’s going to be fine, right?’” She added, “It's not like having a conversation with an adult where you can grasp it. They couldn't wrap their heads around it.” Dane was diagnosed with ALS, a progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease that attacks the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, in 2024. He publicly shared his diagnosis in April 2025. Less than one year later, Dane’s family confirmed his death in a statement to Us in February. He was 53. “With heavy hearts, we share that Eric Dane passed on Thursday afternoon following a courageous battle with ALS,” the statement read. “He spent his final days surrounded by dear friends, his devoted wife, and his two beautiful daughters, Billie and Georgia, who were the center of his world.” The statement continued, “Throughout his journey with ALS, Eric became a passionate advocate for awareness and research, determined to make a difference for others facing the same fight. He will be deeply missed, and lovingly remembered always. Eric adored his fans and is forever grateful for the outpouring of love and support he’s received. The family has asked for privacy as they navigate this impossible time.” In his posthumous memoir, My Book of Days: A Memoir in Moments, Dane shared the five words he told his daughters every day amid his ALS battle. “6:15 a.m. ‘Good morning, I love you.’ I say those five words aloud, today, and every day, dictating a text to Georgia, my 13-year-old daughter,” the Grey’s Anatomy alum wrote. “I speak slowly into my phone, which Cynthia, my nurse, holds up to my mouth.” My Book of Days is available now.

Jon Gosselin's Heartbreaking Confession About His Estranged Daughters New

Jon Gosselin's Heartbreaking Confession About His Estranged Daughters

Jon Gosselin is opening up about his estrangement from his eldest daughters, Mady and Cara. “I haven’t seen Mady and Cara in, like, forever. I wouldn't be able to pick them out on the street,” Jon, 49, said on the Tuesday, November 3, episode of the “Legally Goff” podcast. “I have pictures of them, but I still wouldn't be able to pick them out on the street. That's how much I haven't seen them.” Jon shares twins Mady and Cara, both 26, with ex-wife Kate Gosselin. The exes, who divorced in 2009, also share sextuplets Collin, Joel, Aaden, Hannah, Alexis and Leah, all 22. (Kate, 51, was granted primary custody of all eight children amid their divorce. Jon later filed and was granted custody of Collin amid the Special Forces star’s claims that Kate institutionalized him for alleged behavioral issues. Hannah also lived with Jon during high school, but she still remained in contact with Kate.) As for his relationships with Mady, Cara, Joel, Aaden, Alexis and Leah, Jon believes he was kept out from their lives. “2018 is the last time I saw Joel, Aiden, Alexis and Leah. I saw them one more time [after that],” he recalled on Tuesday’s episode. “If you read in Collin's book, he had a visitation, a forced visitation, that did not go very well and it was very heartbreaking. I did see them again in person, but I haven't seen them since ‘cause they moved.” Jon further claimed that he missed most of his kids’ graduations and proms. “I was alienated from all that stuff. I don't know anything about my twins. If they have boyfriends or girlfriends or what favorite color they have now, if they drive a car, I know nothing,” he alleged. “I've been alienated since they were 13 years old, and alienation, like, silence. I've never heard their voice.” He continued, “One day, I was an all-active everyday parent, and it's upsetting, I know — and people are going to hate hearing this, but I was just cut out of their lives. They, I guess, believe the narrative of TLC that I'm a s***bag, and that I don't want to see them.” Mady and Cara have never publicly addressed their estrangement from Jon, who believes they might have been listening to criticism from their mother. (Kate has long denied Jon and Collin’s accusations about her parenting.) “Just like Kate told Collin I don't want to see him and Kate in court told me that Colin doesn't want to see me and then I didn't hear from him for five years, and I believe that's exactly what he said to Mady and Cara,” he speculated. “That's their mother and they believed her and that was it.”

Bruce Willis' Heartfelt Moment with Daughter Tallulah Captures Wedding Bliss New

Bruce Willis' Heartfelt Moment with Daughter Tallulah Captures Wedding Bliss

Bruce Willis was part of an especially meaningful family occasion as Tallulah Willis, the youngest of his three daughters with Demi Moore, tied the knot with Justin Acee. The intimate celebration took place in Hailey, Idaho, with those closest to the couple gathered around them.One of the most memorable images from the wedding weekend showed the 71-year-old actor sharing a quiet moment with his 32-year-old daughter and her new husband. In the black-and-white photograph, Tallulah rested against her father’s shoulder as Bruce held her close, while Acee greeted him with a warm handshake. Tallulah described the scene as a tender moment with her father and Justin at the beginning of the wedding weekend.For the relaxed gathering, Bruce wore a short-sleeved button-up shirt paired with a fedora. Tallulah appeared in a simple white cotton dress while holding a loose arrangement of wildflowers, and Acee chose an understated suit finished with a rose boutonniere.The celebrations later moved outdoors at the family’s property, where Tallulah and Acee officially exchanged their vows. The bride switched into a custom silk satin wedding gown featuring a sweeping train and statement bow, adding a long veil to complete her ceremony look.Tallulah put her own spin on another wedding tradition by choosing not to have anyone accompany her all the way down the aisle. She prepared for the ceremony in Demi Moore’s bedroom before stylist Brad Goreski accompanied her as far as a bridge on the property. Tallulah then continued by herself toward Acee, who was waiting for her ahead of their vows.Tallulah had her two older sisters close by for the occasion, with 37-year-old Rumer and 35-year-old Scout joining the bridal party. The pair coordinated their looks in strapless, pale green gowns that complemented the ceremony’s summery outdoor atmosphere.Reflecting on the milestone, Tallulah said she felt enormous gratitude and happiness about entering this new stage of her life. She also shared that the celebration surpassed what she had ever pictured for her wedding day. Tallulah and Acee had been a couple for almost two years when they made their engagement public in December 2024. Their marriage now represents another major step in a relationship they have occasionally allowed followers to see through their online posts.Bruce is also a father to two younger girls, 14-year-old Mabel and 12-year-old Evelyn, from his marriage to Emma Heming Willis. The couple tied the knot in 2009.His participation in Tallulah’s big day made the occasion especially poignant for those closest to him. Bruce has been living with frontotemporal dementia, a diagnosis his family made public in 2023. The news came after he had already withdrawn from acting when an earlier aphasia diagnosis was announced. Tallulah, Rumer and Scout have continued to offer occasional glimpses into the time they spend with their father, sharing everything from affectionate photographs to simple, private family moments.Tallulah’s wedding has now become another deeply personal memory for the Willis family. As she and Acee stepped into married life together, Bruce was able to be there alongside his daughter for one of the biggest milestones of her life.

SNL Writer's Sister's Disappearance Takes Chilling Turn with New Charges New

SNL Writer's Sister's Disappearance Takes Chilling Turn with New Charges

The former boyfriend of Saturday Night Live writer Jimmy Fowlie’s sister Christina Downer has been charged with murder more than one year after she was last seen. The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced on Monday, November 2, that Delorean Bijon Brandon was charged with one count of murder and two felony counts of injuring a spouse. Meanwhile, codefendant Kaylee Markowski was hit with one felony charge of accessory after the fact. “More than a year has passed since Christina Downer vanished and her family and friends have dealt with uncertainty amid the profound loss of someone they loved so much,” District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman said in a statement announcing the charges. “Although Ms. Downer has not been located, we are charging two individuals today who are accused of playing a role in her death and disappearance and we will hold them accountable for their actions.” Authorities believe that Brandon, 41, killed Downer, 38, on or around September 19, 2025, and Markowski, 34, allegedly helped dispose of her body. The DA’s office said that Downer and Brandon were in a relationship at the time of her disappearance. Additionally, the DA's office added that Brandon has also been charged with assaulting his wife on two separate occasions in 2022. The LAPD shared more insight into the case in a press release on Friday, October 30, in which they explained that Downer’s ex-husband requested a welfare check in December 2025 when he was unable to reach her for “an extended period of time.” Brandon allegedly told police that Downer had moved out months earlier. He claimed she left behind all her belongings, including her vehicle and dog. Downer’s cell phone was discovered “washed ashore at Santa Monica Beach,” and detectives from the LAPD’s Robbery-Homicide Division took over the investigation. Fowlie, 41, previously shared a missing persons poster via social media in December 2025, revealing Downer had disappeared. “My sister has been missing and we are worried that she isn’t safe… Please share this so that if anyone has seen her, they can give any information to the police,” he wrote at the time. Fowlie, who has worked as a writer on SNL since 2022, shared another update in April. “The LAPD has informed our family that Christina is no longer alive, and the case has officially transitioned from a missing person to a homicide investigation,” he said. “Our prayers for her to be found safely have transformed into prayers for the truth to be revealed and for those responsible to be held accountable.” It’s not currently clear whether Brandon or Markowski have entered pleas following their arrests. The investigation into the case remains ongoing.

Tragic Mountain Climb: What Led to the Fatal Fall of Two College Students? New

Tragic Mountain Climb: What Led to the Fatal Fall of Two College Students?

See more of our coverage in your search results. Two college students who vanished during a Colorado mountain hike fell to their deaths after suffering a “catastrophic failure” while rappelling, police have revealed. Colorado Mountain College Leadville students Jackson Donlon, a 20-year-old Upstate New York native, and Kaden Matsuda, 19, “fell a substantial distance” and landed in a mountain basin after their equipment malfunctioned last week, Chaffee County Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday.The experienced outdoorsmen were found dead five days after they left campus intending to scale Ice Mountain, a near 14,000-foot peak. College student Kaden Matsuda, 19, died from ‘multiple blunt force’ injuries while on a Colorado mountain hike. Chaffee County Sheriff's OfficeDonlon was “beginning to rappel from a primary anchor point on a rock substrate. That anchor appears to have been backed up by a piton and a secondary anchor made of rock substrate,” the update said. “[Matsuda] was attached via his personal anchor device to the same anchor points as well as the primary anchor point. The anchor had a catastrophic failure of unknown cause. Both then fell a substantial distance,” the sheriff’s office said, stressing that the “exact distance” they plummeted is “unknown.” “The autopsy showed that the cause of both their deaths was multiple blunt force injuries and their deaths were instant,” the sheriff’s office said, stressing that “neither of them suffered.”Jackson Donlon, a native of Upstate New York, also fell to his death while on the hike. Chaffee County Sheriff's OfficeDonlon, from Queensbury, NY, and Matsuda, an aspiring firefighter from Ridgway, Colorado, were also known to have been caught in a snowstorm during their doomed adventure.“It is unknown if the heavy snowstorm had a negative impact leading to the incident, but it did not play a direct contributing factor in their death,” the sheriff’s office said.“Kaden and Jackson lived life at the highest peaks chasing freedoms and panoramic views that most of us only see in pictures. We hope their families and friends find strength in the memories of their vibrant spirits.“While their lives were far too short, they spent their final moments together surrounded by the majestic beauty of Chaffee County’s high peaks that they loved. There is also relief knowing neither of them suffered.”Search dogs and volunteers searched trails near Ice Mountain after the students were reported missing. Chaffee County Sheriff's Office via APPrior to their bodies being found, the hikers’ tent was found collapsed under the snow. Sleeping bags, a stove and clothes were found inside but their were no sign of the hikers.Matsuda’s car was found parked on a nearby trail with around eight inches of snow around it.

The Visual Puzzle That's Confusing Everyone: Can You Spot All the Squares? New

The Visual Puzzle That's Confusing Everyone: Can You Spot All the Squares?

Have you ever looked at a simple picture puzzle and thought it would be super easy?This classic “Eye Test” visual puzzle has been confusing people all over the internet.At first glance, it looks like a basic grid of white lines on a black background.The big question at the top asks: “How many squares?”Most people quickly count the shapes they see and guess numbers like 14, 16, or even more.However, almost everyone falls into a clever visual trap.Let’s break down the logic step by step to find the exact and correct answer.Before we start counting, we need to remember one simple math rule.A square must have four sides of equal length.If two sides are longer than the other two, that shape is a rectangle, not a square.This small distinction is where most people make their mistake.Now, let’s count all the actual squares together from smallest to largest.First, look closely at the very middle of the picture.Inside the central section, there is a small grid divided into 4 mini squares.Top-left mini square: 1Top-right mini square: 2Bottom-left mini square: 3Bottom-right mini square: 4That gives us our first 4 small squares.Second, look at the medium-sized squares.Check the four outer corners of the large grid.Top-left corner square: 1Top-right corner square: 2Bottom-left corner square: 3Bottom-right corner square: 4Now, look back at the center of the image.The 4 mini squares together form one medium square surrounding them.Center medium square: 5Adding these medium squares together gives us 4 + 1 = 5 medium squares.Third, look at the largest shape in the entire picture.The outer boundary that contains all the smaller lines and grids is itself one big square.Large outer square: 1Now, what about the remaining shapes on the top, bottom, left, and right sides?If you look closely at the middle sections along the edges, they are taller or wider than they are deep.Their sides are not equal, which makes them rectangles.Because they are rectangles, we cannot count them as squares.Finally, let’s add all our valid squares together:4 mini squares in the center + 5 medium squares + 1 large outer square = 10? Wait, let’s double-check the math carefully!4 (center mini) + 4 (outer corners) + 1 (center medium) + 1 (outer frame) = 10?Let’s re-verify the total sum: 4 mini squares + 4 corner squares + 1 center square + 1 large outer square = 10!Many people guess 14 because they mistakenly include the 4 edge rectangles.If you don’t fall for the rectangle trap, the logical and precise answer is 10 squares!Did you get the correct answer on your first try?

Jenny McCarthy's Shocking Tent Life Amid Mold Detox Revealed New

Jenny McCarthy's Shocking Tent Life Amid Mold Detox Revealed

Jenny McCarthy gave a glimpse of her current living situation while detoxing after mold poisoning. “OK, I have been dying to tell you this story, because the last two years of my life have been absolutely fricking insane. Insane, OK?” McCarthy, 53, said on the Wednesday, October 28, episode of her “Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg Show” podcast, detailing how a toothache sparked her lengthy health battle. “Some of you guys already know that I’ve been dealing with mold and mycotoxin poisoning. I’ve talked about pieces of it before.” McCarthy's previous comments from March about her “toxic” jaw infection and “oozing” eye growths pale in comparison to the full story. On Wednesday, McCarthy explained she went down "a rabbit hole of doctors, surgeries, teeth being pulled, mysterious growths popping up in places you are not expecting, implants literally falling out, and eventually realizing my immune system was fighting something so much bigger." The Masked Singer judge was "so desperate to heal" that she moved into a tent, adding, “I do worry about chemtrails, and also sprinkler." Numerous visits to a dentist led to oral surgery, but McCarthy developed swollen bumps on her eyelid, which was briefly feared to be “a cancer issue.” “It’s like a Shakespearean play,” McCarthy joked about what felt like "25,500" surgeries to help address the mysterious ailment. It wasn't until McCarthy was “going through medical fatigue" that her doctor considered mold exposure. She was tested and then received a call from her doctor, who apparently warned, “Jenny, you’ve got serious mold. You’ve got the type of mold that causes seizures. If this thing crosses the blood-brain barrier, I’m going to be talking to you in hospital. You’re going to start seizing." McCarthy was grateful she found the root of the issue, but she is still battling side effects. “I’m still in my mold detox, you guys. I’m still in it, like, I’m knee-deep in it," she explained. "I’m in month seven of detox and I’m too paranoid to honestly live anywhere else other than a tent.” Weeks before McCarthy opened up about her health, her husband, Donnie Wahlberg, had a scare of his own when his plane skidded off the runway at a Las Vegas airport. He assured fans via Instagram on October 18 that he was “safe and thankful and all is well.” McCarthy also expressed her gratitude for Wahlberg’s safety, writing in the comments section of his post, “God is so good!!!! ��������������������������������������������������������❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.”

Perez Hilton's Recovery: Family Shares Hopeful Update 3 Months After Crisis New

Perez Hilton's Recovery: Family Shares Hopeful Update 3 Months After Crisis

Perez Hilton’s team and family are offering an encouraging update on the blogger's recovery three months after his disturbing self-harm livestream. “It’s been three months since our family began navigating this difficult time,” read a message on Hilton’s website on Tuesday, November 3. “While it hasn’t been easy, we’re grateful to have some positive news to share about Perez’s recovery.” Hilton, 48, was hospitalized on August 4 following a disturbing TikTok livestream where he appeared to engage in self-harm acts. At the time, the Miami-Dade police confirmed to Us that authorities responded to calls “regarding an individual who was live-streaming acts of self-harm on social media.” Officers were dispatched to Hilton’s home for what they suspected was a “possible suicide” attempt. Hilton underwent surgery due to significant blood loss. He remained in the hospital before moving to an inpatient facility. In October, Hilton began the next phase of his treatment, a partial hospitalization program (PHP), while residing in supportive housing. He will continue to receive mental health care and support, according to the new message. “He’s also been able to spend time with his family during approved visits, including a special evening celebrating his mom’s 73rd birthday together with the children,” Tuesday's statement read, referring to his three kids. “These moments together have meant so much to everyone.” The message continued, “This entire experience has been a learning process for our family. Like many people who have never been through something like this, we didn’t fully understand just how much time, care, and support recovery from a serious mental health crisis can require. Through conversations with others who have been through similar situations, we’ve come to understand that getting through the initial crisis is only the beginning. There’s no one-size-fits-all timeline, and we’re learning the importance of taking things one step at a time.” While Hilton’s team and family are unsure of an exact date of when he would be returning home, the statement noted that they are “hopeful that day is getting closer.” “Most importantly, we want him to have the time and support he needs to continue making progress,” the message read. “In the meantime, the children are doing well, staying busy with school, their activities, and everyday life. They also had a wonderful Halloween! After everything they’ve been through, seeing them smiling, having fun, and simply enjoying being kids has been especially meaningful.” The statement concluded, “As always, thank you to everyone who has continued to check in and send kind messages. We’re incredibly grateful for your love, compassion, and support. It means so much to our family.” If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available.

Democrats' Stunning Gains Spark Talk of Historic House Takeover

WASHINGTON — Republicans appeared on the cusp of losing control of the US House of Representatives hours after polls closed on Election Day, with Democrats having flipped several seats and kept their opponents’ gerrymandered advantages at bay in the midterm elections.Follow for live updates on the 2026 Midterm ElectionsThe GOP held just 62 seats, while Democrats had taken more than 100 that had been called by the Associated Press by 10 p.m. in the 293 races on the line Tuesday night. NBC News and CNN were both projecting a Democratic takeover of the House.If projections hold true, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and his party could have their largest majority in more than a decade, fueled largely by voters’ frustrations with the economy and the rising cost of fuel and food, according to public polls.House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who was watching the results from his hometown of Shreveport, said that it was time for his party “to defy history and the polls, stand for common sense, and save America.”U.S. Representatives of the 119th Congress are sworn in during the first day of session in the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington on Jan. 3, 2025.

Trump’s Bold Claim: Moving to Israel if U.S. Voters Turn on Him New

Trump’s Bold Claim: Moving to Israel if U.S. Voters Turn on Him

As millions of Americans head to the polls to cast their vote on Election Day, President Donald Trump is threatening to leave the United States altogether. “If people ever get tired of me in the U.S., I’ll move to Israel and become prime minister,” the commander-in-chief, 80, claimed while calling into the Tuesday, November 3, episode of Fox & Friends and after touting his alleged popularity in the region. “I’m at 99 [percent approval,” Trump claimed. “I have the highest approval rating of anybody in history.” Trump’s apparent plans to leave the U.S. if he is no longer popular with the electorate comes amid the president’s record-low approval ratings. In a new CNN poll taken between October 13 and October 26, Trump’s disapproval rating in the United States was at 64 percent. The president’s overall approval rating dropped to 34 percent. Just nine states still rate Trump positively, including Wyoming, North Dakota and Arkansas. The president’s comments also come after he claimed the United States will no longer be sending military aid to Israel. (The U.S. sends approximately $4 billion in military aid to the country every year.) “Israel’s our No. 1. We give them more than anybody else, and they no longer need it,” Trump said via phone during the on-air interview. “We’ve been doing it for years. I’ve been doing it. But Israel is a very thriving country. They don’t need it. If they did need it, I would say keep it going.” Trump claimed to have recently made a deal with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the United States to stop funding the country’s military, including the country’s missile-defense system the Iron Dome. The president alleged the pair “made a deal months ago” and that the money would get “cut off at the end of the year.” “They’ve been a great partner, but we stopped Iran,” he said before changing topics drastically. “Iran was an unstoppable force. We knocked the hell out of them.” Netanyahu, 77, has yet to publicly comment on the president’s claims. Trump’s interview comes during a pivotal midterm election for the United States. Depending on the results in several key states, Democrats could take back control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives as Trump continues his second presidential term. Hours before voting centers closed on the East Coast, Trump said he was watching Fox News and didn’t approve of one of the guests speaking. “Watching the Pre-Election Results on Fox News, but I can't stand Jessica Tarlov's voice — DUMB AS A ROCK, but it's the voice that gets me,” he wrote via Truth Social on Tuesday. “Have to go somewhere else until that LOSER is off the air — I'll be back later!”
