Landing the role of glamorous Sammy Jo Carrington in the long-running TV show Dynasty back in the day, helped actress Heather Locklear secure her place under the Hollywood sky and become a much-loved celebrity figure.

Born in Los Angeles in 1961, Heather rose to stardom during the 80s and has had quite a career. Today, she is 61 years old and looks as stunningly beautiful as ever. What’s most, her only child, daughter Ava Sambora, is a spitting image of her famous mom.

Ava, 25, has even taken after her mom a little bit in terms of modeling and acting.

Heather had Ava with her second husband, Bon Jovi lead guitarist Richie Sambora. Previously, she was married to Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee, whom she divorced in 1993.

Heather and Richie tied the knot in 1994 in a private civil ceremony in New Jersey. Their formal wedding took place in Paris, and the Melrose Place star wore a candlelight white gown designed by Nolan Miller, who also designed the lavish costumes for Dynasty. 

The couple stayed together for 13 years before calling it quits. As of Ava, being a child of two celebs was quite a ride. When she was young, she could often be seen on stage during the Bon Jovi concerts. Sometimes, she would introduce them to the audience and she even danced with the members while they performed.

Today, Ava is a very successful young woman. In 2020, she graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a bachelor’s in psychology, finishing with a GPA of 4.0, and pursued a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy at the University of Southern California.

When it comes to her acting career, Ava appeared in a handful of movies, including This Is 40, which marked her debut in the world of film. Her latest acting credit is from 2020, when she starred in the independent crime-thriller A Dark Foe with Selma Blair.

As mentioned before, this beauty, which resembles her mom in so many ways, tried herself in modeling too. In 2010 she walked the runway for her father’s clothing line, “White Trash Beautiful,” at Los Angeles Fashion Weekend.

Recently, Ava posted a collage of photos of herself holding flowers. The caption read, “I like flowers,” along with a tag to her friend Sarah Wermers.

As expected, people couldn’t help but comment how Ava looked exactly like Heather, with some writing, “You truly are a stunning beauty, taking after your beautiful mother!!” and “My gosh she is her mother, even her voice sounds like Heather’s.” 

Of course, there were also those who couldn’t see the resemblance.

When it comes to Ava’s private life, what we know is that’s she’s dating Tyler Farrar, an investment associate at Pacific Partners Real Estate Investments. The two have been together since 2019.

Heather did an amazing job raising her daughter.

She was spat at because of her ginger hair – but look at her today

Ever since we were little children, our parents taught us to never judge people based on their physical appearance. Sadly, there are still those who make assumptions about others based on their looks. 

Jessica Gagen’s childhood wasn’t an easy one because she was constantly teased for her red hair. Her classmates called her names and made her days a living hell. Years later, however, she finally got her revenge when she was crowned Miss England in 2022.

What she looks like today will take your breath away.

Jessica, who is from Lancashire, England, stood out from the crowd because of her red hair. Sadly, her friends didn’t find this feature a cute one. On the contrary, they mocked her and made fun of her, so she was often left out from the social circles most of her classmates were part of. This made Jessica cry almost every day.

The bullying went so far that her classmates even spat on her and tried to burn her with a lighter because she had ”ginger hair.”

“I was name-called on the daily, and although I don’t think the kids were being malicious in doing, so there were definitely times they were. I was hit, spat at and had things thrown at my head quite a few times, but worst was when a girl burned me for having ginger hair,” she shared with The Mirror.

When she was in year seven, Jessica was forced to eat her lunch in the toilet because whenever she tried sitting next to someone at the cafeteria, they would stand up and walk away.

Not only she didn’t feel beautiful because of the constant teasing, but she even convinced herself that she was ugly.

“I used to get really upset about it all, but I’m determined to show kids who are facing the same thing that it won’t happen forever,” Jessica says.

As years went by, Jessica turned into an enchantingly beautiful young woman. At the age of 18, she applied to a modeling agency and pursued a career as a model. It didn’t take long before she caught the attention of many and was praised to the high heavens for her unique style. Her dream wasn’t only to become successful for herself, but for all the children who were tormented and called names like she was all those years.

She wants her story to serve as an example that we should never stop pursuing our dreams, no matter what others tell us.

In 2021, Jessica applied for the beauty contest “Miss England,” and finished as a runner up. The following year, she won the competition and was titled Miss England, becoming the first red-haired woman to do so.

“I looked back and I was thinking there are not that many redheads on TV. I thought if I could win this, I could empower kids who being bullied for the way that they look and the color of their hair,” she says.

Jessica wants to spread the message that “everybody is unique and nobody has flaws.”

We are so glad for her success and for her having the last laugh.

This year would mark 17 years since the passing of one of the greatest animal and nature lovers the world has ever seen, great Steve Irwin.

Irwin died back in 2006, leaving the world mourning his loss. During filming at the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, Steve was pierced through the chest by a stingray.

“He was having trouble breathing. Even if we’d been able to get him into an emergency ward at that moment we probably wouldn’t have been able to save him, because the damage to his heart was massive,” Justin Lyon, an underwater cameraman and Steve’s close friend told Australia’s Network Ten television.

Through his passion and the out-of-this-world videos and documentaries of incredible species, he made millions look at the nature and the creatures living in the wild and the oceans with fresh eyes. And now, his children are following into his footsteps and continue his legacy the best they can.

Bindi Irwin and Robert Irwin, together with their mother Terri, work as zoo keepers in Australia and are 9nvolved in conservation and promoting and protecting animals.

February 22 marked what would have been Steve Irwin’s 61st birthday. His daughter Bindi shared a touching message to honor her late father.

“Happy Birthday, Dad. Thank you for instilling a love for all species, courage to follow my heart and determination to make a difference in the world for wildlife and wild places,” she wrote. “Your legacy lives on and the world is forever changed because of your dedication to conservation. Mum, Robert and I love and miss you so much.”

Alongside the touching words, Bindi posted a photo of Steve and herself at a very young age.

As expected, many of this famous family’s fans flooded the photo with comments.

“Your dad was a gift to the world and his legacy continues with you and your beautiful family!” one person wrote.

“Sweetest picture, making me cry. l’m sure he’s so proud of his baby girl and what a good mama and person you are! Happy birthday to your dear dad,” another added.

When her dad passed away, Bindi was just 8 years old, but the love for animals he installed in her lasts a lifetime.

Kyle Jacobs, the 49-year-old husband of country singer Kellie Pickler, was found dead inside the couple’s Nashville, Tennessee, home on Friday. The death of Jacobs, who was a songwriter, was being investigated as an apparent suicide.

Following a 911 call, first responders found Jacobs’ lifeless body. “Mr. Jacobs’ wife, Kellie Pickler, reported that she awoke a short time earlier, did not see her husband, and began looking for him,” according to the statement. “After she and her personal assistant were unable to open the door to the upstairs bedroom/office, the assistant telephoned 911.”

Pickler and Jacobs tied the knot in 2011. Over the course of his career, Jacobs collaborated with various country music legends, such as Tim McGraw, Garth Brooks, Darius Rucker, and Kelly Clarkson. Among the rest, he co-wrote Garth Brooks’ 2007 single “More Than a Memory” with Lee Brice and Billy Montana. The song is considered to be the first country song to debut at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot Country Songs chart. 

In 2015, the couple starred in I Love Kellie Pickler, a CMT reality series documenting their marriage. They didn’t have any children together.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Kellie Pickler and her family during these times of grief.

This iconic actress is unrecognizable these days – her legs were once insured for a million dollars

We can only guess what’s it like to be so influential that your name is forever embedded in the pop culture history. Well, one of those people who know this feeling all too well is beautiful Catherine Bach, The Dukes of Hazzard star who had her legs insured for a million dollars.

The moment she landed the role of Daisy Duke, Bach started the trend of wearing daring outfits, among which short cut-off denim shorts that are referred to as “Daisy Dukes” even today by young people who probably have no idea where the name comes from.

American actress Catherine Bach, who played Daisy Duke in the US television series ‘The Dukes of Hazzard’, circa 1985.

Once on the show, Bach required to be given the freedom to create her own outfits instead of wearing a tight white turtleneck, go-go boots, and a poodle skirt as the producers initially wanted her to.

The Cleveland, Ohio native has had quite a career.

Born in Warren, Ohio in 1954, Bach split her childhood days between her father’s ranch in South Dakota and her mother’s California home.

While spending a summer at The Golden State, Bach attended drama school and the moment she got on stage she knew she was meant to make it big in the world of film.

The next step towards what would turn into a stunning career was getting a list of agents and finding one. Eventually, after landing some minor roles, Bach got the role that would change her life forever, that of charming Daisy Duke.

Although The Dukes of Hazzard was hated by the critics, it was something the average American loved so the show became an instant hit and was a top-rated television series in the late 1970s. According to many, it had everything a show needed, corny jokes, car races, and a stunningly beautiful leading-lady.

Speaking of her character, Bach said in 1979, “The character is a conglomeration of many people I know. She is half the wildest girl I ever knew in high school. She is part of a couple of girls I was real close to in Georgia. Se’s a lot of Dolly Parton and she’s a lot of me when I was a waitress. She is independent. She is physical. And she can do anything the guys can do.”

The Dukes of Hazzard ended in 1985 and Bach’s career sort of stalled. She starred in African Skies and The Young and the Restless.

In 2010, Bach suffered a huge loss when her husband Peter Lopez died. The two tied the knot in August 1990, and they were together until his tragic death.

Calling him the love of her life, the actress was left with million questions and she still couldn’t find the answer as to why he took his own life. He was financially stable and didn’t struggle with addictions, so his passing was truly a mysterious one.

“A lot of people in the music business have stress, but Peter was always calm and collected,” Bach told People.

“The further I get away from it, the more I believe he did this to protect us. Something must have happened to him that he couldn’t get past.”

At the time, Bach’s daughters were 11 and 14, and she put all her time and energy in raising them and being there for them.

”I realize that these girls are my legacy, they are Peter’s legacy. They are a testament to our love and what we thought of family, and there’s no way that I could ever slack off on that and just think about myself, ” she told Huffinton Post. “I prayed a lot. I went to church a lot. I’m Catholic. I stayed very close to my priest who I really trust… It’s what kept me alive.”

Today, Bach is 68 years old and although she has gained some weight over the years, she still looks as stunning as always. While starring as Daisy Duke, she kept in shape by “dancing three hours a day, hiking and swimming.” As of her current looks, she said, “I’ve put on a little weight, but so what?”

Last year, Bach was spotted in public wearing large sunglasses, black sneakers, and a cross-body phone case. Many say that she is now hardly recognizable, but considering her age and the 40 years that have passed since she starred in the famous show, it is normal to look different that in the young days.

Sadie’s mother also posted tribute to her late daughter. “Sadie Raine Loza has left this Earth for the heavens,” she started her post, adding that it was the hardest thing she ever had to do.

“Sadie liked to remind me that the first law of thermodynamics aka (Law of Conservation of Energy) works in all spheres of life.

“Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another.”

She continued: “Transformation is a better word than death. Her story will save countless lives, her memory will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace you brilliant starseed. You’re with your creator. We will miss you dearly. I love you.”

Our thoughts and prayers are with the devastated family during these hours of grief. Sadie turned 15 just a week before her tragic passing.

21-year-old who claims to be missing Madeleine McCann shares ‘evidence’ on social media

Ever since then 4-year-old Madeleine McCann went missing from an apartment in Praia da Luz, in Portugal, while her parents were out having dinner, her case became “the most heavily reported missing-person case in modern history.”

Sadly, 15 years later, no one knows where Madeleine could be or whether she’s still alive, although her parents and her family never lost hope of ever seeing her again.

On May 12, 2022, what would have been her 18th birthday, her devastated parents shared a heart-wrenching message. “We love you and we’re waiting for you and we’re never going to give up.”

The investigation around her disappearance continues up until this day and her mom and dad, who were considered suspects at one point, say they never lost hope of finding their daughter.

Back in 2020, detectives who are working on Madeleine’s case said how they believe the girl had been murdered. German prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters allegedly said that he believes the suspect in the case, Christian Brueckner, didn’t move the girl from Praia da Luz to Germany as many believe, but executed her in Portugal, as reported by the Evening Standard Newspaper. “I am optimistic we will solve this case,” Wolters added.

The prime suspect in the case, German pedophile Christian Brueckner, 44, is currently serving a seven-year sentence for raping a 72-year-old American in Praia da Luz in 2005. At the same time, he’s awaiting a trial for a separate case in which he’s charged for raping an Irish tour rep in 2004.

The case has seen a dramatic revival in the last few days as everyone has been taken aback by a 21-year-old Polish woman named Julia Wendell who has gone viral after sensationally claiming that she is Madeleine McCann. Julia gathered over a million followers on Instagram where she shares ‘evidence’ of her claims.

On her Instagram account named “Help me, I need to talk with Kate and Gerry McCann” with the username “iammadeleinemccan,” Julia shares evidence of her claims such as certain physical similarities with the missing Madeleine, like the famous rare eye defect and other facial features. As of her childhood, Julia says she remembers little to nothing.

In statements made to the Daily Star, Julia said:“I have lived a very hard life and suffered a lot of trauma, my abuser was a German paedophile who was a suspect in the Madeleine McCann investigation.

“I had not heard of this case until I started asking my parents questions about my childhood as I have little to no memory of it. The memories are all very blurry and when I have had conversations with my parents, things don’t seem to add up and they always try to change the subject.”

Further, Julia said, “I don’t remember being taken away. I mean, I don’t remember almost my entire childhood… I have asked for pictures of when my mum was pregnant with me, other medical records and any pictures from my childhood and she never shows them, she just always tells me I’m crazy.

“My school teacher when I was very young said that I wasn’t there from the start but my parents insist I was. After all this confusion I began to do my own research I discovered what had happened to Madeleine McCann and started to piece together the similarities we shared. It has been so stressful trying to get people to listen to me.” 

Allegedly, as reported by media outlets, Julia’s story reached Madeleine’s parents, Kate and Gerry, who are willing to follow up on the lead. They could also go ahead with Julia’s offer to do a DNA test.

This information has been confirmed by Julia herself. “Thank you for support! Kate and Gerry McCann agreed for DNA test!” she wrote on Instagram.

As of the parents Julia lives with, she says they are not happy with what she does. They say she is “horrible” for giving false hope to the McCanns.

We truly hope the case of Madeleine McCann will eventually be solve and her parents will finally get some peace.
