Jay Leno is in our thoughts and prayers

Following a gasoline fire accident that left him with serious burns and forced him to be hospitalized, the former The Tonight Show host Jay Leno went through another ordeal after being involved in a motorcycle accident last week.

Sadly, he was again taken to the hospital as it has been revealed that he broke two kneecaps and two ribs and fractured his collarbone.

Luckily, Leno isn’t someone who gives up easily so despite the severity of his injuries he shared with his fans that he’s been feeling fine and is back to work. He hopes that he would be able to recover completely in a matter of days.

According to the host himself, he was out exploring his 1940 Indian motorcycle when he smelled gasoline and made a decision to take a detour. “As a result, I directed the bike down a backstreet and crossed an adjacent parking lot.” Further, he told Las Vegas Review-Journal that “someone had unknowingly strung a wire across the parking lot without a flag or any other visible warning signs.”

As her rode right into the wire, Leno was lurched out of his seat and onto the pavement. He told onlookers that he was totally unaware of the wire and it wasn’t his fault and that there was no time for him to act, thus left his motorcycle roll on its own.

As of the gasoline accident he was involved in November 2022, Leno said, “I got some serious burns from a gasoline fire. I am ok. Just need a week or two to get back on my feet,” shortly after it happened.

According to TMZ magazine, Leno was in the garage when one of his cars suddenly burst into flames. He was then taken to a burn center where he remained hospitalized in stable condition.

We truly hope Jay Leno would recover completely as soon as possible.

Actor Lance Kerwin, best known for his roles in the TV drama James at 16, which originally screened on NBC as James at 15, and the Stephen King miniseries Salem’s Lot, died Tuesday, January 24 in San Clemente, California. 

The news of Kerwin’s passing has been confirmed by his daughter Savannah Paige, whom he had with ex-wife Kristen Lansdale.

Savannah took to Facebook to announce her father’s death and wrote, “I am so sorry to those we have not been able to reach out to personally to notify but Lance Kerwin passed away yesterday morning.”

She continued her post, “We appreciate all the kind words, memories, and prayers that have been shared. As the coming weeks progress, I will share more information about after life ceremonies. He loved each and every one of you.”

A cause of that hasn’t been provided yet, but what is known is that Kerwin, who was most prolific as a child actor in the 1970s, was found “unconscious.”

Kerwin first appeared on screen when he was 13 in an episode of Emergency!

Being the youngest of five siblings and born to a father who was an acting coach and a mother who worked as a talent agent, it seemed that a career in the world of entertainment was written in the stars for talented Kerwin who turned into a heartthrob adored by many.

Other notable roles he played were those in Little House on the Prairie, Police Story, Gunsmoke, and The Family Holvak.

Kerwin’s acting career ended in the 1990s, with his last role in the 1995 thriller Outbreak, but in 2022, he returned to the film industry for a small role in The Wind & the Reckoning.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the grieving family. May he rest in peace.

Riley Keough shares last photo taken with mom Lisa Marie Presley before her death

Lisa Marie Presley’s life was cut short at the age of 54. The singer-songwriter suffered cardiac arrest on January 12, after she was transferred to the hospital where she was placed in induced coma. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it.

The news of her tragic passing was shared by her mother Priscilla Presley. “It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” Priscilla said in a statement. “She was the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known.”

Presley’s three daughter have been left devastated by their mother’s loss.

Riley Keough has broken her silence and shared her heartbreak over her mother’s tragic death through an Instagram post. She also paid tribute to her late mother on the day Presley was laid to rest at Graceland next to her late father, Elvis Presley, and her son Benjamin Keough who died of suicide in 2020.

On the day of Presley’s funeral, her son-in-law, Ben Smith-Peterson, the husband of Presley’s daughter, Riley, shared Riley’s words on her behalf and said, “I hope I can love my daughter the way you loved me, the way you loved my brother and my sisters. Thank you for giving me strength, my heart, my empathy, my courage, my sense of humor, my manners, my temper, my wildness, my tenacity. I’m a product of your heart, my sisters are a product of your heart, my brother is a product of your heart.”

Now, Riley posted another photo of herself and her mother and wrote it was taken the last time she saw her mom alive.

“I feel blessed to have a photo of the last time I saw my beautiful mama. Grateful @georgieflores took this,” Riley captioned the photo.

Two days prior to her passing, Lisa Marie Presley attended the Golden Globe event together with her mother to support actor Austin Butler who portrayed her father in the biopic Elvis.

Both Lisa Marie and Priscilla were happy with the accuracy of the events depicted in it. They were also very satisfied with Butler’s portrayal, describing it as “truly mind-blowing.” Lisa Marie had nothing but words of praise for the actor.

However, it wasn’t just Elvis’ family who admired Butler’s work. The critics praised him as well and he was nominated for his first-ever Golden Globe.

Rest in peace, Lisa Marie Presley.

Prince Harry got ‘high’ on ‘laughing gas’ and ate chicken as Meghan Markle went into labour

When Archie Mountbatten-Windsor was born on May 6, 2019, Harry and Meghan posed with him in front of the Portland Hospital in London, where he was born, as is the tradition.

“Today The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are delighted to share their first public moment as a family,” the Sussexes wrote.

Although both Prince Harry and Prince William, as well as many other members of the royal family, including William’s children, were born at St Mary’s Hospital, the Sussexes chose not to give birth to Archie there.

“He and Meghan were thrilled to be safely delivered of their son in London’s private Portland hospital even before the palace press office had confirmed the duchess was in labor.”

They also shared photos of the little one meeting his great-grandma, Queen Elizabeth, for the first time.

Later, as Archie grew a bit, Harry and Meghan took a trip to South Africa where they met Archbishop Desmond Tutu. “Thank you Archbishop Tutu for your incredibly warm hospitality, Archie loved meeting you!” they wrote on Instagram along with a series of photos of their son.

Except for that, they have tried keeping both their children out of the spotlight as much as possible.

However, that changed when the Netflix documentary about Harry and Meghan, consisting of six episodes, aired. In the first episode of the documentary, the Sussexes provided people from all over the world with an intimate look into the family life at their home in Montecito, California which was previously described as “Fort Knox,” and security is tight.

With that said, fans were able to take a closer look at Archie and Lilibet as well.

Netflix

The children have been living in the States, away from the royal family and they have visited Britain briefly, during one or two occasions, including the event of Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee months prior to her passing. The Sussexes threw a birthday party for Lili in Britain.

In his all-tell memoir Spare, Harry spoke of the day he became a father for the first time. Apparently, in order to calm himself down while Meghan was at the delivery room, Harry got high on laughing gas.

“But I saw two ways of enhancing my calm. One: Nando’s chicken (brought by our bodyguards). Two: A canister of laughing gas beside Meg’s bed. I took several slow, penetrating hits,” Harry wrote in his tell-all book.

“Meg was so calm. I was calm too.”

He then added, “Meg, bouncing on a giant purple ball, a proven way of giving nature a push, laughed and rolled her eyes. I took several more hits, and now I was bouncing too.”

The Prince then explained that a nurse tried giving his wife the gas for the pain, but he had already consumed it all.

“I could see the thought slowly dawning. Gracious, the husband’s had it all. ‘Sorry,” I said meekly.’”

In order to ease her pain, Meghan was then given an epidural.

“The anesthetist hurried in. Off went the music, on went the lights. Whoa. Vibe change.”

Kate’s gesture to ‘tense’ William during US visit has people talking

Some time ago, William and Kate set foot on US soil for the first time since 2014.

The Prince and Princess of Wales attended the Earthshot Prize Awards which William founded in 2020. Earlier this year, however, it became an independent charity and William serves as its president.

“Protecting the environment was a cause close to my grandmother’s heart. And I know she would have been delighted to hear about this event and the support you’re all giving our Earthshot finalists, the next generation of environmental pioneers,” William said in a recorded message after he was forced to cancel the September Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit in New York because of Queen Elizabeth’s passing.

Instead, the trip took place some two months later and what caught everyone’s attention was that the royals didn’t fly to the States privately but used a commercial flight and remained-low key the entire time.

“As soon as people saw them get on you could tell there was a buzz on the airplane,” passenger Jonathan Wood shared with CBS News. “It was a wild experience, but it was great.”

“Surprising … you assume they’d have a private jet,” passenger Jo Atkins told CBS. “[William is] a lot slimmer… can I say that? He’s very slight. She’s beautiful, obviously, as one would expect. I didn’t expect that getting on the plane.”

“Well look, they’re coming for Earthshot. It’s an environmental thing, right, so being on a commercial flight makes sense,” another passenger, Luke Howard, added.

Upon landing, the Prince and Princess of Wales were greeted by Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker and Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito and William thanked the people who were there to welcome them “for their many tributes paid to the late queen,” adding that his late grandmother always spoke of her 1976 visit to Boston “with great fondness.”

Among those who got to greet and meet the royal couple was an 8-year-old boy named Henry Dynov-Teixeira. The sweet boy was dressed as a Buckingham Palace guard and presented them with roses.

“I am going to scream and tell my best friend that I am now famous,” Henry told Mirror UK.

Kate and William also met with the Boston mayor and the US ambassador to Australia, Caroline Kennedy. They attended an NBA game and watched Boston Celtic play. All in all, their time there was fulfilling and fun as it was effective.

“The normally tactile-shy couple are using three key tie-signs or cues to suggest a mutual need to register unusually high signals of love, support, and togetherness,” body language expert Judi James told The Sun of the royal couple’s appearance at the basketball game.

“Their arms are pressed together from just above the elbow to the wrists and when William stops leaning away to chat they will likely be pinned at the shoulders, too.”

However, William keeping his hand on his wife’s might be a sign of inner tensions, the expert claims.

“She has done this PDA before but it has been more of a fleeting gesture but here it is getting validation from William’s reciprocal response. He places his own hand on top of hers and even curls his fingers around her hand to keep it in place,” James said.

“Kate’s smile has been as immaculate as usual in Boston but here she sucks her lips in,” she said.

“This is another sensory trick. Lips have the densest concentration of nerve endings of any part of the body and pressing and sucking them in like this can be a self-comfort ritual under pressure.”

Kate seems to posses the ability to calm those around her when there is need for that.

The day’s unfortunate news about the well-known actor who portrays ‘Jack Abbott’

Jack Abbott, the patriarch of the Abbott family, needed to take an unexpected business trip on Young and Restless, but the real reason for Abbott’s sudden exit is the real-life medical issues actor Peter Bergman, who portrays Abbott, experienced.

Speaking to Soap Opera Digest, Peter Bergman shared that he noticed how something affected his vision while visiting family to to California’s central coast. “On the way, there was a funny thing on the inside corner of my left eye,” he recalled. At first, he didn’t pay much attention and didn’t even tell his wife, but as the day went by, he felt worse and worse. “By the end of the night it was like a curtain closing in toward the center of my eyesight.”

In the morning, Bergman sought medical help and together with his wife, Mariellen, they visited an ophthalmologist at San Luis Obispo who diagnosed him with detached retina. Bergman was told he needed to undergo an urgent surgery, so he returned to LA that same day for the procedure.

Luckily, the surgery was successful, but the recovery process was quite a demanding one and lasted for quite some time.

According to the actor, he was forced to keep his face parallel to the floor for “50 minutes out of every hour for seven days.”

He was able to watch television thanks to a special “contraption” Mariellen set up but complained that he couldn’t do two of his favorite activities, reading and exercising. “It seemed like it took forever,” he added.

Bergman’s castmate Mishael Morgan (Amanda) had also underwent the same surgery herself and she provided Bergman help during the recovery process. “I gathered as much information on what to expect from her as I could,” the actor said, adding that Morgan has been outstanding.

Once he got back on the show, Bergman shared with his fans details about the issues he experienced and the surgery he underwent through. The Emmy award winner said that the experience “served as a sobering reminder of the value of sight. Never consider it a given.”

‘Sopranos’ star John Ventimiglia’s daughter Odele found dead at 25

Losing a child is something no parent should ever experience. 

Children should outlive their parents, and when that doesn’t happen, entire worlds come crashing down, and all of a sudden, nothing is the same and grief settles in the hearts of the bereaved parents.

“Heartbroken to have to post our darling Odele’s funeral notice,”  she wrote. “Her sister Lucinda and I have been overwhelmed by the messages of support and love we have received, and your remembrances of how cherished Odele was to so many. Odele was greatly loved, and leaves a huge hole in our lives.”

The post continued, “Odele is survived by her sister, Lucinda Ventimiglia, mother, Belinda Cape, father John Ventimiglia, and her beloved daughter Shiloh.”

The family thanked everyone for their condolences and prayers and asked for donations instead of flowers. They started a GoFundMe page to to support baby Shiloh. The amount raised has been $55,000 so far, and suppressed the initial goal of $50,000.

Odele’s older sister, Lucinda, shared her heartbreak over her younger sister’s passing. “Odele Cape Ventimiglia – 4/7/1997 – 1/12/2023 words will never be enough to express the grief we are all feeling. I loved my little sister a lot and I will spend the rest of my life searching for her in everything,” she wrote.

“A funeral for Odele will be held at 12 pm next Thursday, 1/26, at Old First Reformed Church in Park Slope. my family and i are so grateful for all the care and support we have been receiving during this impossible time. it has never been more clear how much she meant to so many people. sending love to everyone who is trying to cope with her loss – look after each other and keep Odele in your thoughts 🤍🤍🤍,” the statement continued.

The cause of death hasn’t been revealed yet.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Ventimiglia family.
