As reported by TMZ, Wactor was shot and killed in downtown Los Angeles.

TV anchor Frank Buckley paid his tributes, “Saddened and angered to hear that actor Johnny Wactor was shot and killed by suspects trying to steal his catalytic converter.

Journalist and producer Michael Fairman was among those who expressed heartbreak over Wactor’s tragic passing. “I am just gut-punched over this as we all our. My thoughts are with Johnny’s mom and brothers at this time.”

In television, Wactor appeared in shows like Army Wives (2007), Siberia (2013), Agent X (2015), Vantastic (2016), Animal Kingdom (2016), Hollywood Girl (2010), Training Day (2017), Criminal Minds (2017), Struggling Servers (2017), Age Appropriate (2017), NCIS (2019), The OA (2019), Westworld (2020), The Passenger (2020), Station 19 (2023), and Barbee Rehan (2023).

It’s already the coolest job in the world to get to act. To see how much you guys care and how much stake it has, I’m just so blessed and I’m gonna miss you guys.”

Opinion: Meghan Markle’s ‘cold’ revenge against Kate Middleton – why the Duchess’ latest move leaves the palace furious

The bridges between the Sussexes and the rest of the royals remain burnt down and no one knows with certainty if they would be restored in the near future.

Following King Charles’ and Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, both Harry and Meghan reached out to them and offered their support and well-wishes, but that wasn’t seen as an olive branch, thus things between them haven’t changed and remain rather rocky.

When Prince Harry visited Britain in order to meet with his father after he learned of his cancer, he caused a stir and angered many, among which Camilla, who believed his visit was more of a PR stunt than a genuine act towards his father.

For the Invictus Games which took place last week, Harry visited London again, but he and his father didn’t see each other due to the King’s busy schedule.

Harry’s spokesperson said the Prince “hopes to see him soon.”

However, much as the fact that Harry and his family are not getting along ever since he and Meghan stepped down from their royal duties, the truth is that the Sussexes enjoy popularity in the States and live their lives to the fullest along with their two children, Archie and Lilibet, who received the titles of Prince and Princess shortly after Queen Elizabeth’s passing.

Despite their departure from royal duties, financial opportunities continued to flow their way. In September 2020, they inked a lucrative five-year, $100 million production deal with Netflix, signed a four-book deal with their publisher that allegedly included a staggering $20 million advance and global royalties for Harry’s book Spare, potentially totaling over $120 million. Additionally, they secured a $20 million deal with Spotify, estimated to be worth around $35 million according to industry experts.

The Invictus Games – founded by Prince Harry for veterans worldwide – are a beautiful initiative, but it’s hard not to question if it might be an even bigger win from a publicity standpoint.

Harry and Meghan are beloved figures in America, and now they seem to be accepted by other countries as well. Recently, the two took a trip to the African country of Nigeria where they were welcomed as royals.

Shortly before the trip during which the couple was to further their work surrounding the Invictus Games, Meghan opened up about the results of a DNA tests she had taken, sharing that she was 43 percent Nigerian, making the trip to the country rather personal.

Harry and Meghan greeted the crowd that gathered to see them with beaming smiles, snapped selfies and relished all the enjoyable aspects of royalty without needing to answer to the Firm. Meanwhile, their visit brought a lot of unwelcome attention to Buckingham Palace, and the Sussexes managed to shift the narrative in their favor without having to address any royal matters.

Royal expert Tom Quinn told Mirror that Kate and William were furious about the Sussexes’ trip because it felt like a royal engagement.

“Everything you might expect from an official royal visit was there – the receptions, the visits to schools and charities, to wounded soldiers and the disabled,” he said.

For Meghan, this trip was also a way to restore her image while acting as a ‘non-royal’ princess.

While Kate faces her own challenges, Meghan is about to launch her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. She and Harry’s recent visit to Nigeria signifies a promising new beginning for them, and some see this as Meghan’s “cold” revenge against Kate and the rest of the royals.

This doesn’t mean, however, that Meghan and Harry don’t wish Kate to recover as soon as possible, just like the rest of us.

Kate Middleton will return to royal duty if this one condition is met, royal expert claims

Not only Britain but the entire world is eagerly anticipating the moment Kate Middleton would return to her royal duties.

Following her planned abdominal surgery which took place in mid-January of this year and required a hospital stay of 13 days and even longer recovery, Kate was initially expected to be out in public around Easter, with the Palace claiming she was doing fine, but that didn’t happen because the Princess of Wales disclosed with the public that she’s undergoing treatments for cancer. According to Kate herself, it was following her surgery that doctors found the presence of cancer after running tests.

She hadn’t disclosed her condition with the public right away because she and William needed time to tell the news to their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

However, although she hasn’t been doing any public duties, Kate is said to be working from the comfort of her home.

At the time being, most of the royal engagements have been performed by William and Queen Camilla.

This summer, the royal family has a busy agenda. Major events include Trooping the Colour, a state banquet, the 80th anniversary of D-Day, and Garter Day. Kate usually attends these events, and it turns out that this year, King Charles did his best to find a suitable replacement for his beloved daughter-in-law.

As per the Daily Mail, Beatrice, Prince Andrew’s eldest daughter, is “looking forward to helping out.”

“They’ve got a busy diary coming up, and they need to widen the family at social events. You’ve got a whole week of Ascot. You have four garden parties. You’ve got Trooping the Colour, and you’ve got a state visit before you even start on other things,” the source said.

“I think Beatrice and Eugenie are adding support where they can. They’ve always been clear they’re non-royal, but they’re always there to help fulfill any duties required.”

It is apparent that King Charles sees his nieces as “sensible, lovely women” who could be a great asset for the royal family.

“They have been crying out for that royal glamour that has been missing during a time when his slimmed-down monarchy is in desperate need of bulking up,” the source concluded. 

“Beatrice, in particular, has been desperate for her chance to shine. She was once shy, and her style was a little frumpy. But these days she’s ambitious, confident and fashionable. She looks great in photos.”

Despite the fact that she tries to stay out of the spotlight, the Princess of Wales is “excited” to be at the heart of the launch of a new project that could boost the UK economy by £45.5billion ($57 billion) a year. As per The Daily Mirror, Kate’s Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood would release a report this week from eight British firms that would identify five areas where businesses can support children under five and their caregivers. It will also highlight the significant future benefits of investing in early childhood.

“The work of The Prince and Princess’ projects is ‘always on’…early childhood is a huge priority for The Princess, and so she has been kept fully updated throughout the development of the Taskforce’s work, and she has seen the report,” Kate Middleton’s spokesperson told the Daily Mail.

A senior royal aide told GB News: “The Princess of Wales was the driving force behind the business task force. She has been kept up to date since the inception of the task force, and she has read the report and been briefed on it.”

“This is a clear commitment she has made that throughout her life of public service that this will be focus. That will continue when she returns to work. But we have been really clear that she needs the space and the privacy to recover right now. She will return to work when she has had the green light from doctors.”

The Centre for Early Childhood, described as Kate Middleton’s “life’s work,” was founded in 2021.

Christian Guy, executive director of the early childhood center, told the newspaper: “This is another crucial moment for HRH’s early childhood work…its impact, and the work of her Centre for Early I know, having briefed The Princess on this, that she is enormously grateful to the members of the Taskforce who have made such fantastic progress on this work over the past year.”

Although working on this project “should not be seen” as Kate is back, as per GB News’ royal correspondent Cameron Walker, the news about this project is giving royal fans hope they would see Kate back at work in the near future.

Speaking on GB News, host Isabel Webster said: “It’s characteristically Catherine, isn’t it? To say she wasn’t doesn’t want to distract from this report by having people talking about her health. We should start probably by saying she said she’s not feeling well enough to come out and talk about this in public, but she is saying she’s watching it, keeping a close eye from behind closed doors.”

Chris Jackson/Getty Images

Cameron Walker added, “This should not be seen as a return to work by the Princess of Wales, but I have been told she’s read the report and has been briefed on it. But this will stem from her work from when she started being a working member of the Royal Family, where she was working closely with people suffering from addiction and mental health problems.”

“It’s a big task, isn’t it?” the royal correspondent concluded. 

“That’s a lot of change that would need to happen. So it’s going to happen over a long period of time. The princess cannot lobby the government. She can’t be political. So I think she’s trying to encourage the private sector to do as much as they can in sport and create societal change.”

We wish Kate Middleton gets better and better with each passing day.

Graduation: A celebration for all

During Sunday’s commencement at Duke University, students walked out as speaker Jerry Seinfeld was introduced. The reason why is that Seinfeld has openly supported Israel. This incident is the latest in a string of disruptions at colleges across the country.

As they left the ceremony, the students chanted “Free, free Palestine,” as a group of other graduates appeared to jeer them.

The walkout triggered many online comments, suggesting that the students were protesting because Seinfeld is Jewish, with some accusing the participants of antisemitism.

Former U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, an Illinois Republican, posted, “So students at Drake [sic] walk out because the speaker, Jerry Seinfeld, is Jewish? This is antisemitism, cloaked in concern for Gaza.” 

Democratic U.S. Rep Daniel Goldman of New York, posted on X, “Jerry Seinfeld is a Jewish American who has nothing at all to do with Israel’s foreign policy or military defense. Holding an American Jew responsible for the actions of the Israeli government is quintessential antisemitism.”

YouTube/ The Guardina

The organizers of the walkout claimed their decision had nothing to do with the actor’s religion but with him being vocal in supporting Israel. Further, the protesters called for Duke University to disclose its investments in Israel and consider divesting from companies with connections to Israel. They called for a ceasefire amid the ongoing conflict.

Seinfeld received an honorary degree and delivered his speech without major interruptions.

“We’re excited and delighted for the Class of 2024 and their families. We understand the depth of feeling in our community, and as we have all year, we respect the right of everyone at Duke to express their views peacefully, without preventing graduates and their families from celebrating their achievement,” Duke spokesperson Frank Tramble said in a statement.

Man who claims to be the son of King Charles and Queen Camilla launches legal fight to prove his ‘royal paternity’

During the years, a man named Simon Dorante-Day, 56, of Queensland, Australia, has claimed he was the son of King Charles and his wife Camilla. He made headlines in the past, but now, with the passing of Queen Elizabeth, and Charles ascending to the throne, those claims only became more frequent and pretty much stronger than before.

As reported by 7NEWS, Simon was born on April 5, 1966, in Gosport, Portsmouth, and was adopted by a couple named Karen and David Day. His adoptive grandparents, Winifred and Ernest Bowlden, were employed by Queen Elizabeth and Princ Philip and worked at the royal household.

According to Simon himself, it was his grandmother who told him the truth about his biological parents, saying he was the son of Charles and Camila. Simon says she didn’t go around the bush but told him straight. “She didn’t just hint at it, she told me outright,” he shared with 7NEWS.

Although the newly appointed King and his wife Camilla, who received the tittle Queen Consort, only married in 2005, their history together dates back to the times Charles was still married to late Princess Diana. The two had an affair and it was the main reason Diana decided to leave him.

According to Simon, Camilla, who he believes is his biological mother, gave birth to him when she was still a teenager.

Now, with Queen Elizabeth II’s passing, Simon’s mission to prove his heritage became stronger than ever.

He believes that King Charles gave the tittle of Prince of Wales to William with ease, and he still refuses to do a DNK test and prove whether Simon’s claims are true or not.

The Queen herself never responded to any of Simon’s letters during the years, and with her death, a “window of opportunity has closed,” Simon said.

“There has been a discussion in there between a judge and myself and his barrister about the legal standing of Charles, and whether the monarch is protected by the law or is above the law,” Simon explained. “And the answer to that was no – they told me that we don’t see any reason why he is.”

Further, this alleged ‘heir’ to the throne said, “And secondly, Camilla and her family are certainly not above the law. So that argument’s already been had and settled.”

Simon Charles Dorante-Day called Charles “weak” for failing to respond to any communication or recognizing him as his “firstborn Son.”

“On the eve of your coronation, when all that you have waited for and all that you’ve fought for has come to fruition, I hope that you are finally satisfied,” Simon wrote.

“I am disappointed that my issue couldn’t be resolved before you ascended to the throne, but I feel that in the fullness of time this will reflect more poorly on the Monarchy than it ever will on me.”

“I feel dismissed. Charles got what he wanted: he got the throne, he got his wife, he got it all. I don’t even get the truth about my mother. When’s it going to swing the other way? Now it’s time for me to get my happy ending.”

He continued, “Maybe you can come clean and admit when you first met because the truth is you haven’t before!”

Chris Jackson/Getty Images

The Palace has never addressed these claims.

A few weeks ago, the Australian made another move towards seeking ‘justice’ by sharing details of his latest legal effort to prove his royal paternity. He plans to take King Charles and Queen Camilla to court during their visit to Australia.

“What [legal action] am I going to do this time? Well, I’d be a very silly person that when he comes into the same jurisdiction as me not to do something,” Simon told 7News.

“But I think I’d be even sillier to let that cat out of the bag right now.”

He added: “You know, there’s always something going on in the background here at our place. It never stops. People think just because it goes quiet on Facebook, [the case] is quiet, but it doesn’t. We’re hammering in the background.”

Claiming he doesn’t want fame or money, Simon says he only wants the truth to be told.

“I’m not doing all this to be a Facebook character. And I’ve had to learn to do this and objectionably at times, because we were private people. These accusations that I’m doing this for money? Yeah, right, okay. And I’m doing it for fame? None is true.”

He concluded, “All we want is the truth. All we want him to do is tell the truth, and her, Camilla as well. They both need to own up.”

Although he cannot prove anything, there are people who believe his claims. Could this man give King Charles a headache in the days that follow? We will have to wait and see how this man’s life story unfolds.

Wisconsin DQ puts up ‘politically incorrect’ sign, owner doesn’t back down

A sign spotted on the front window of a Dairy Queen restaurant in Kewaskum, Wisconsin, has caught the internet’s attention. The billboard boldly showcases the establishment’s commitment to what some may deem as politically incorrect, highlighting its frequent use of holiday greetings such as “Merry Christmas,” “Happy Easter,” and “God Bless America.”

Speaking to WDJT-TV, owner Kevin Scheunemann said he “felt the sign was appropriate to hang in terms of being transparent about the views of the owner and staff supporting God and country.”

The sign has been up for the last four years and it didn’t cause any problems until recently when a customer took a picture of it and complained about it.

The location’s owner, franchisee Kevin Scheunemann, told GoMN that “a student from Oregon” posted the photo of the sign on the official Dairy Queen Facebook page last Wednesday, triggering a huge thread of comments.

Mike Mozart/Flickr

According to Scheunemann, the complaint by the student described the “politically incorrect” sign as “extremely offensive” and demanded that the company “deal with (the) franchise owner.”

Most of the comments under the photo that attracted plenty of attention but has since been deleted were in support of Scheunemann.

Dairy Queen responded to the controversy with the following statement: “American Dairy Queen Corporation does not encourage our independently owned and operated franchisees to post non-business related messages in their locations or on their external reader boards. This sign expresses the views of this independent owner only and does not speak for ADQ Corporation or any of our other independent franchise owners. We expect our franchisees and employees to treat every person who walks through our doors with the utmost dignity and respect. Nothing less is acceptable.”

Screenshot

Scheunemann says he’s not planning on taking the sign down and adds that store is a “huge tourist landmark at this point,” with “people driving hours to take a picture with (the) sign.”

The idea to put the sign in the first place came after a complaint from a customer who was upset about the Christian music playing inside the store.

Evidence of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck splitting up comes to light

While promoting her new Netflix movie Atlas in Mexico, singer and actress Jennifer Lopez was asked point blank of the rumors regarding her alleged split from husband Ben Affleck to what she replied, “You know better than that.”

In the background, JLo’s co-star, Simu Liu, could be heard coming to her defense. “OK, we’re not doing that,” he said, before adding: “Come on, don’t come in here with that energy, please. Thank you so much.” 

However, besides her response, body language expert Judi James believes JLo revealed signs that say otherwise.

“Lopez is no stranger to high-profile marriage and high-profile divorce so must have been expecting questions like this one, given all the recent speculation about her relationship with Ben.

“The fact that her body language here makes her appear wrong-footed and awkward might not go far then in terms of the reassurance fans are hoping for.”

Getty Images

Judi continued: “When the question about their relationship comes from the audience her initial reaction is to keep the mic to her mouth as though willing to speak, but she lets out an explosive laugh into it instead.

“Tellingly, her ring hand lifts from her knee as though forming a silent signal of solidity but then she seems to stuff the hand between her knees instead, looking at her host while acting bouncy and smiling.”

“Jen co*ks her head as she looks across in a gesture of likeability,” Judi added. “She then seems to try to take control, leaning onto her knees with a serious facial expression. ‘You know better than that’ is her line here, while the ring hand fiddles. Her body language announces ‘that’s it’ as she then wipes her ring hand on her leg and leans back and looks away.”

JLo has been promoting the new sci-fi film for which she is a producer, without Affleck, 51.

Earlier this week, when InTouch magazine wrote that Lopez and Affleck had called it quits, they also implied that Affleck had vacated their shared home in Beverly Hills and has been staying in his Brentwood residence for the past week.

The couple have been last pictured together in March in New York City.

Reports have suggested that the singer was in search of a separate residence apart from her husband.

Lopez and Affleck married in July 2022 following a second engagement. Since tying the knot, their relationship has been under the spotlight, particularly after she disclosed that her prior relationship with Affleck had “crumbled under the pressure.”

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have not issued any official statement regarding these rumors.

Kelly Rizzo shows incredible strength in the face of grief

At a 2024 Grammys viewing party, Kelly Rizzo went public with her new relationship, and she has now made her romance with her boyfriend, actor Breckin Meyer, Instagram-official.

The widow of comedian Bob Saget took to social media on Tuesday to extend birthday wishes to her partner, marking their first public post together on the platform. “HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! To the man who is kind, sweet, silly, thoughtful, completely hilarious, handsome, understanding, charming, forever curious, compassionate, witty, warm & wonderful,” Rizzo, 44, posted. “You deserve to be endlessly celebrated today!🎂❤️🎉,” she added.

Actress Caitlin Crosby wrote, “Oh it’s instagram offish !!! 🥰🥰🥰,” while Jana Kramer wrote, “I love this so much.”

Speaking to E! of her new relationship, Rizzo said that it took “a while” for her to “get to the point where” she felt comfortable dating again.

Addressing critics who claimed she had moved on too quickly following Bob Saget‘s sudden passing, Rizzo said, “Unless you are a widow or a widower, you truly have absolutely no place and no right to comment on this because you do not know what it’s like.” She added: “You just don’t understand the incredibly complex and difficult and dynamic thoughts and feelings that come up during this entire process.”

Rizzo started dating 18 months after her husband died and she’s grateful she found a partner who understands that Saget is “always going to be a part of my life.”

“He always asks questions about him and keeps him a part of the conversation, and that means so much to me,” she said.

Although Rizzo didn’t need the blessing of Bob’s daughters, it held significance for her to receive their approval, aligning with her sense of what felt appropriate in the situation.

“I’d love to think that Bob would want me to be happy too, but to hear it from them is just a totally different level,” the journalist said. “And it meant the world just to hear, ‘Hey, we trust you. We love you. We know you’re going to do what’s right, and we want you to be happy.’”

Rizzo and Saget were married for four years until his passing in 2022.

As of Rizzo’s new love, Breckin Meyer, he’s best known for the 1990s cult classic Clueless. Meyer is also a writer and a producer, having served as the creator of Men At Work.

Meyer was previously married to filmmaker Deborah Kaplan from 2001 to 2014. The two share two daughters.

The woman who identifies as a dog: Embracing her true self

These days, it is not uncommon for people to have a wide range of identities, including identifying with non-human beings or entities. And no matter how strange this sounds to many, these individuals do believe they should have been born as other people, different gender, or even animals.

Appearing on KIIS FM’s The Kyle & Jackie O Show, Meow, an American woman, shared fascinating details about her everyday life as a canine.

During her interview, Meow provided insight into her unique lifestyle, explaining that she sleeps in a crate, enjoys dog treats, and relies on her handlers for care.

“I have pastel blankets and pastel pillows in there, something about being in a confined space, I don’t know if it makes me feel safe from the world or makes me feel like the world is safe from me but it feels comfort for sure!” she said.

“It can fit me, the rule of thumb with a dog is that if they can stand up in it, then it’s big enough for them, so as long as I’m on all fours standing up.”

Meow, who believes she’s a Dalmatian, is also a well-known star on social media platforms like Twitch. She fully embraces her dog-like characteristics, occasionally barking and moving on all fours.

Her crate is the place where she feels secure and comfortable and is decorated with a bunch of pillows and blankets that make it a cozy place.

Meow isn’t in a relationship, but she does have ‘handlers’ who act like her boyfriends. She also considers them friends who help her with various tasks, such as going on walks and practicing training exercises. Her relationship with them is non-sexual, but they share similar interests.

When it comes to her diet, Meow does eat normal food such as shredded chicken and jerky, but also dog treats such as biscuits.

Meow doesn’t really care what people think of her lifestyle as she confidently focuses on living out her dog identity.

On Instagram, under the username meowdalyn, her online presence provides a peek into her remarkable lifestyle, attracting a following of more than 11,000 individuals.

Meow’s story is a poignant testament of the ways individuals opt to manifest their innermost selves. It is also a testament to the significance of embracing authenticity, irrespective of societal norms or expectations.

If you see these painful red bumps, you may have dyshidrotic eczema

One type of skin condition people suffer from is dyshidrotic eczema, which is prevalent in the spring. Although this condition isn’t curable, it is manageable and can be kept under control. The symptoms are small, itchy blisters.

Eczema refers to a group of diseases that cause skin inflammation, often known as dermatitis. As per statistics, eczema affects an estimated 35 million people in the States only. Around seventy percent of these cases include children under the age of five.

During a flare-up, the skin becomes red, itchy, and swollen with fluid-filled bumps that may ooze and crust. The most common triggers of eczema are allergic reactions, but it can also be genetic. Eczema isn’t contagious.

Shutterstock

One of the most common forms, as stated previously, is dyshidrotic eczema.

Dyshidrotic eczema (pompholyx) is a chronic, recurrent skin condition that causes itching and often appears symmetrically on the palms, fingers, and soles. It is marked by small, deep-seated vesicles measuring 1–2 mm, which eventually resolve with scaling after a few weeks.

There is some disagreement about the exact terminology and definitions, but this condition is also referred to as pompholyx, acute and recurrent vesicular hand dermatitis, acute palmoplantar eczema, vesicular endogenous eczema, cheiropompholyx (when affecting the hands), podopompholyx or pedopompholyx (when affecting the feet), and cheiropodopompholyx.

Shutterstock

Of course, not every inflammation of the skin is related to this type of eczema, so before you even start treatment make sure you are properly diagnosed.

Some of the most common symptoms of dyshidrotic eczema are:

  • Deep-set blisters on hands and feet (specifically on the edges of the fingers, toes, palms, and soles of the feet)
  • Itching
  • Redness
  • Flaking
  • Scaly, cracked skin
  • Pain

People with contact dermatitis, atopic eczema, or hay fever are at a higher risk of developing dyshidrotic eczema. Sadly, it has a tendency to get infected, which delays the healing process.

Shutterstock

Although there is no cure and no surefire way to prevent flare-ups from taking place, an effective skincare routine can bolster your skin’s resistance to inflammation.

The most conventional treatment for dyshidrotic eczema are creams, which likely include corticosteroid creams or ointment or a prescribed injection or pill.

Other treatments include:

  • UV light treatments
  • draining large blisters

Besides these conventional methods, there are also natural ways of treating and soothing the condition. Generally, maintaining clean and moisturized skin is one of the most effective methods for managing eczema. The type of treatment and its frequency will depend on your specific symptoms, but these natural, at-home approaches enable you to feel confident about the products you use on your skin.

Cold Compresses

To reduce the inflammation of the skin, soak the affected area and apply cold compresses for 15 minutes. Repeat this process two to four times throughout the day and then apply moisturizer to the affected area for maximum effectiveness.

Aloe Vera

Renowned for its ability to soothe irritated skin and accelerate the healing process, aloe vera can help reduce the symptoms of eczema. For best results, break off a piece of the plant and apply the thick gel directly to your inflamed skin. Alternatively, you can purchase a bottle of natural aloe vera lotion from your local pharmacy.

    19 mysterious things only internet ‘detectives’ could identify

    Has it ever happened that you stumbled upon an odd object whose purpose was totally questionable? If yes, you are not alone.

    There are plenty of objects people used in the past that are no longer popular, and when we find them in our basements, the attics, or other places, we can’t help but question what they were used for. Luckily, we have the Internet today and we rely heavily on it and the netizens to unravel these mysteries.

    1. Cuneiform Tablet from the Louvre

    This object, with a heavy chunk of metal that had retained its color for decades, turned out to be a cuneiform tablet, commonly sold as a souvenir at the Louvre and other museums.

    2. Lockout/Tagout Gang Lock

    Another object that gathered the attention of Internet users was a type of clamp that wouldn’t open beyond a certain point. netizens were quick to identify it as a gang lock used for Lockout/Tagout in workplaces, ensuring the safety of multiple people working with equipment.

    3. Mystery Keychain Attachment

    Someone found a random metal object that turned out to be used as a key chain attachment.

    4. Antique Butcher’s Thumb Protector

    If you’re unsure of its purpose, this item can be quite puzzling. After asking for some help online, the person who found it learned it was an antique butcher’s thumb protector.

    5. Blue Reflective Markers for Animal Safety

    If you have ever spotted these blue reflective markers on trees facing a field, the answer is they serve the purpose of reflecting car headlights towards the fields, helping animals avoid crossing the road.

    6. Hand Warmer with Gel and Metal Disc

    13. Mesh Bed Bug Detector

    Staying in a hotel room and noticing a red-flashing light emanating from a rubber piece on the bed leg? It’s actually a mesh bed bug detector.

    14. Ruling Pen for Calligraphy

    This rather strange and unique item with a metal dial on the top is actually a ruling pen for drawing with ink or other drawing fluids.

    15. Old Puzzle Called Octo-mania

    Jennifer Garner trying to save ex-husband Ben Affleck’s marriage to Jennifer Lopez – wants to ‘keep them together,’ says source

    Amid ongoing rumors that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are having difficulties with their marriage, Afflek’s ex-wife and mother to his children, Jennifer Garner, is “encouraging Ben to work on his marriage to Jen,” a source told Us Weekly.

    The source added: “[Garner] fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy.” The reason why is that although their marriage didn’t work and Garner considers Afflek “a complicated guy,” the two have always been very cooperative when it comes to their children, Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12.

    Further, it has been reported by some media outlets that it was Lopez herself who turned to Garner for help as she feels like Garner is “one of the only people in the world who would understand what she is going through.”

    A source told the Daily Mail: “[Garner] has been through it with the same man herself and although the circumstances were quite different… they both dealt with some of the same issues.”

    Garner and Affleck split up in 2018, and the 52-year-old actress started dating businessman John Miller. While she has moved on romantically from her ex-husband, she considers Lopez a stabilizing influence in his life and wants to help save their marriage.

    “Jen does not want Ben to pull the plug on this marriage because she really does care about JLo,” an insider told the Daily Mail. They added that Garner “did go to his house to talk to him about this and to try and keep the two of them together.”

    JLo was told several times by Jen how valued she is in all their lives,” the source added. “She is one of the only women who can get through to Ben and keep him from jumping off the deep end with his addiction.”

    Back in 2020, Affleck admitted in a New York Times interview that his drinking had worsened his “marital problems” with Garner.

    “People with compulsive behavior, and I am one, have this kind of basic discomfort all the time that they’re trying to make go away,” he said at the time. “You’re trying to make yourself feel better with eating or drinking or sex or gambling or shopping or whatever. But that ends up making your life worse. Then you do more of it to make that discomfort go away. Then the real pain starts.”

    “It becomes a vicious cycle you can’t break,” he continued. “That’s at least what happened to me.”

    Earlier this week, Affleck was absent from the premiere of his wife’s new movie, Atlas.

    Pat Sajak’s final ‘Wheel of Fortune’ episode has an airdate

    Pat Sajak, the long-time host of Wheel of Fortune, has announced his retirement.

    After 43 years, Sajak will leave the show on Friday, June 7, when the final episode of him as s host would air, Entertainment Weekly confirms. The farewell episode will coincide with the current season 41’s finale.

    For his role as a host, Sajak received 19 Daytime Emmy Award nominations, winning three.

    He has been part of Wheel of Fortune since its 1983 nighttime debut but has also hosted the daytime edition from 1981 to 1989.

    In the statement he issued last summer, Sajak said, “Well, the time has come. I’ve decided that our 41st season, which begins in September, will be my last. It’s been a wonderful ride, and I’ll have more to say in the coming months. Many thanks to you all. (If nothing else, it’ll keep the clickbait sites busy!)”

    Stepping down from his role doesn’t mean Sajak would be leaving TV entirely. On the contrary, he will stay on as a consultant for three years. The network quickly chose Ryan Seacrest as Sajak’s replacement for season 42, with Seacrest also taking on the role of consulting producer.

    “I’m truly humbled to be stepping into the footsteps of the legendary Pat Sajak,” Seacrest said of the new gig. “I can say, along with the rest of America, that it’s been a privilege and pure joy to watch Pat and Vanna on our television screens for an unprecedented 40 years, making us smile every night and feel right at home with them.”

    Leading up to his last episode, Wheel of Fortune will air a series of episodes titled “Thanks for the Memories” in honor of the longtime host.

    Vanna White will remain with ‘Wheel of Fortune’ through 2025-26 though she admitted it was hard to envision the show without Sajak. “Everybody relates Wheel of Fortune to Pat and Vanna,” White told PEOPLE in 2022. “We’re like Ken and Barbie, you know? We’ve been in everybody’s homes for 40 years.”

    Queen Camilla’s ex-husband secretly finds love with TV host at 84 – and you might recognize her

    Queen Camilla’s ex husband, Andrew Parker Bowles has found love again.

    He is said to be dating Telly’s Queen of Mean Anne Robinson. As per The Sun, the former Weakest Link host, 79, and retired Army brigadier, 83, have been secretly dating for a year.

    The relationship has been confirmed by Robinson herself.

    “Yes. Full stop. Mind your own business,” she told Saga magazine.

    Discussing her experience of re-entering the dating scene in her seventies, after being single for over a decade, she told Saga: “I’d been out of the game for so long. And also I don’t drink. If you don’t drink, you’re not as reckless are you?

    “I’m a great believer in surprising yourself by taking risks. Personally and professionally. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If the worst that can happen is you get some egg on your face, that’s not terrible is it?”

    In December of last year a source told Hello! about the relationship between Bowles and Robinson, which came fourteen years after the passing of Bowles’ second wife, Rosemary Dickinson, in 2010.

    “They’ve been having an affair for about eight months. It’s an extraordinary match as they’re from very different backgrounds, and Anne has a reputation for being quite bossy,” the source said.

    The couple reportedly met last year at a lunch with mutual friends, and since then, they have largely managed to keep their developing relationship out of the spotlight.

    Robinson divorced her former husband John Penrose in 2007.

    Following the news of their relationship, people have reacted very positively, with many sending messages of support and well-wishes.

    “84❤️79, we need more love stories like this,” one person wrote on Facebook.

    “She certainly looks better than his ex-wife and hopefully has a better personality,” another said.

    He clearly has a type lol,” a third person quipped.

    Bowles and Camilla divorced in 1995 and it was widely reported that during their marriage, he had numerous extramarital affairs, including several with women who were friends of Camilla.

    While Bowles enjoys his love life, Camilla and Charles are also spending quality time together.

    The couple recently headed up to Aberdeen, Scotland, to celebrate their 19th wedding anniversary. Photos last month depicted them arriving at Aberdeen Airport after flying in from London.

    Following the news of King Charles’ cancer diagnosis, Queen Camilla has been a rock for him. She has been performing royal duties and the public appreciate her efforts and dedication. Camilla’s popularity has grown bigger over the years, especially during the last couple of months.

    As per The Sun, Camilla supports her ex’s new relationship.

    After all the heartbreak, Jason Momoa found new love, and you’ll surely recognize her

    Around two years after he officially split from his now-ex-wife Lisa Bonet, Jason Momoa went public with his new relationship. He and actress Adria Arjona were spotted packing on the PDA on Tuesday, May 21. Two days prior, they made their relationship Instagram official.

    People first started guessing that the two were dating in early May of this year when Momoa appeared at Basingstoke Comic Con in England and disclosed to fans that he had been in a relationship for a considerable period. “I’m very much in a relationship. I’ve been in a relationship for a while,” he told the crowd. “I’m really enjoying [my] privacy ’cause back in the day nobody gave a f**k, and now everybody does.”

    Recently, the Aquaman star posted several photos with Arjona as part of a collection showcasing their trip to Japan. In one of the pictures, the two are seen smiling on a beach. In the post, he lovingly referred to Arjona as “mi amor.” 

    “Japan, you are a dream come true you blew my mind. We’re so thankful for everyone who opened their homes, making memories with new friends and old friends, sharing another amazing adventure with mi amor. ON THE ROAM motorcycles and mayhem. All my aloha j,” the actor wrote.

    Arjona has had a Hollywod career herself. After several notable roles, among those in Pacific Rim Uprising, Life of the Party, and a recurring part in True Detective, she had her breakthrough role as Dorothy Gale in the Oz book adaptation Emerald City. Although the series was canceled after one season, she has since secured numerous significant roles.

    Some of her most prominent roles include Morbius, Father of the Bride, Good Omens, and Andor. Additionally, she appears in the new comedy-action Netflix film, Hit Man, directed by Richard Linklaterin which she stars in along with Glen Powell.

    One of her latest projects, Blink Twice, was directed by Zoë Kravitz, Momoa’s stepdaughter from his marriage to Bonet.

    Arjona was married to lawyer Edgardo Canales. Their relationship was a private one and no details of their split have been released.

    Before Arjona, Momoa briefly dated Eiza González for a few months in 2022.

    The new couple were both part of the cast of Netflix’s Sweet Girl, which was released in 2021.

    Dog abandoned outside shelter with heartbreaking note and tears in her eyes — soon she gets good news

    A five-month-old Cane Corso/pit mastiff puppy was abandoned at the Pennsylvania SPCA headquarters. The little one was tied to a pole along with a note that read, “Good Puppy. House Broken. Don’t Have A Name.”

    According to a Facebook post, the puppy was healthy, but it looked like she had been crying.

    “We literally had to wipe away the tears from her eyes,” the SPCA wrote.

    “Our hearts broke for her. She was so terrified… At just five months old, this sweet girl has been abandoned by likely the only family she has known.

    “But she was safe with us now.”

    The unexpected visitor was named Minerva, and she was there to stay, well, until the SPCA found her a new home.

    Minerva’s story was so touching that it attracted the attention of a huge number of people and it didn’t take long before the right people contacted the shelter and asked to adopt her.

    Of course, many were glad Minerva’s story got a happy ending.

    “Congratulations to beautiful Minerva and her equally beautiful forever family,” one comment on the post reads. “Thank you for adopting this sweet baby and giving her such a wonderful home with you.”

    “Ohhh look at those smiling faces!!!” another wrote. “You are amazing!! She’s gonna be spoiled! No more tears there!”

    Minerva is among the lucky ones who end up in families that provide them with love and care, but sadly, the number of dogs who never get adopted is huge.

    The SPCA encourages people to consider adoption over purchasing their four-legged friends.

    “We are seeing the frequency of dogs abandoned on our property rise,” the Pennsylvania SPCA wrote. “We are witnessing owner surrenders increasing. It may go without saying that adoptions have slowed down significantly.”

    “Dogs just like Minerva are coming in every day. We are rescuing animals from cruelty and neglect. We are saving them after they’ve been abandoned. And we are hoping with all of our might that loving families will come to adopt.”

    We are so happy for Minerva and we truly hope that more dogs will get to find their forever home.

    62-year-old Billy Ray Cyrus marries 34-year-old bride Firerose – fans upset by one little detail

    The Achy Breaky Heart singer, Billy Ray Cyrus, and his third wife, singer Firerose, tied the knot in October 2023.

    The couple sparked engagement rumors when she posted a photo wearing a diamond on her ring finger on Sept. 13, 2022. It was later revealed that Billy proposed some months earlier.

    “Billy looked at me and said, ‘Do you, do you wanna marry me?’ And I was just like, ‘Of course I do. I love you,'” Firerose said of the proposal. “He said, ‘I love you. I wanna make this official. I wanna be with you forever.'”

    Flickr

    The pair first met some 12 years ago while he filmed Hannah Montana and she was there to audition for a part in the show.

    Recalling the first time they met, Billy shared, “There were a couple of old pine trees on the lot that reminded me of Tennessee. Tex, my dog, and I would go out there in the middle of the day, and he’d do his thing. We’d stretch, and I’d think about how much I missed Tennessee. On that particular day, Firerose emerged from the front door. There was almost a moment of, I don’t know, recognition. I thought, ‘This girl’s a star.’”

    He then continued, “She mentioned she had an audition, and I said, ‘Well, I’m sure you got the job.’”

    Firerose didn’t get the part, but the two stayed in touch.

    “I just thought, well, the casting agents, the producers, the writers, they’re all on the floor of where we do Hannah Montana. And I actually said to her, ‘Don’t ever take a strange man up on this offer, but, in this case, Tex will testify that you will be totally safe,’” Billy said.

    “‘I’m going to introduce you to a producer, and you can kind of make yourself at home and watch us rehearse and, you know, maybe it might lead to a role or just another contact at Disney.’ And, so, off me and her and Tex went back to the studio. And I think she met a lot of the cast and met the producers, writers. And, in some ways, well, in a lot of ways, we became friends,” the Billy shared.

    He proposed in August 2022, and not longer after that, she moved in with him.

    Before tying the knot with Firerose, 34, Billy, 62, was married to Tish Cyrus for 28 years. The exes share five children together, daughters Miley, Noah, and Brandi, and sons Trace and Braison. Billy also has another child, son Christopher Cody, whom he had with Kristen Luckey, the woman he dated before Tish.

    Being a singer-songwriter herself, Firerose and her husband collaborated on various projects. Most recently, they released their music collaboration – a cover of Silent Night as well as their music video for their fourth single together, titled Plans which was premiered exclusively by People.

    “Plans’ is such a positive song full of love and passion. Everyone on set brought their A game. I’m so excited for fans to see what we created!”

    When they shared photos of their wedding day, Firerose and Billy received an outpouring of messages from fans congratulating them on their union. However, one thing caught many people’s attention -Billy’s hair – and they decided to share their opinion on the matter.

    “Could he not have at least combed his hair for the occasion?” asked one person. “He couldn’t find a comb?!” asked someone else. “All that money and no hairbrush?!” joked another.

    We congratulate the happy couple.

    Kate Middleton cancer update as decision made about Princess’s royal return

    Amid her battle with cancer, all eyes are on Kate Middleton.

    Following the stir her absence from the public and the media caused, Kate shared a pre-recorded video in which she explained that doctors found presence of cancer while running tests following her planned abdominal surgery.

    Since then, she has cleared her schedule and the Palace hasn’t issued any statements regarding her potential return to royal duties.

    Max Mumby/Indigo/Getty Images

    However, a senior aide seems to know more of what has been going on behind closed doors and hinted about the potential time Kate could return to her royal duties.

    Despite the fact that she tries to stay out of the spotlight, the Princess of Wales is “excited” to be at the heart of the launch of a new project that could boost the UK economy by £45.5billion ($57 billion) a year. As per The Daily Mirror, Kate’s Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood would release a report this week from eight British firms that would identify five areas where businesses can support children under five and their caregivers. It will also highlight the significant future benefits of investing in early childhood.

    Mail Online reports a senior royal aide saying: “The Princess of Wales was the driving force behind the business task force. She has been kept up to date since the inception of the task force and she has read the report and been briefed on it.

    “This is a clear commitment she has made throughout her life of public service that this will be focus. That will continue when she returns to work. But we have been really clear that she needs the space and the privacy to recover right now. She will return to work when she has had the green light from doctors.”

    The Centre for Early Childhood, described as Kate Middleton’s “life’s work,” was founded in 2021.

    As this may not be seen as a definite update on Kate’s health state and well-being, it is still something the public is eager to hear.

    We truly hope we would see Kate in public as soon as possible.

    Royal expert shares concerning news about Harry & Meghan – how they are forming an alternative royal family, revealed

    Harry and Meghan celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary on May 19.

    The beautiful ceremony of tying the knot between Harry and Meghan took place on on May 19, 2018. Among the guests were a lot of celebrities such as George Clooney, David and Victoria Beckham, Serena Williams, James Corden, and Oprah Winfrey. Meghan wore a wedding dress designed by Givenchy’s then-creative director, Clare Waight Keller, and the stunning Queen Mary’s bandeau tiara which belonged to the Queen’s grandmother, Queen Marry.

    The wedding was broadcast and seen by more than 29.19 million viewers.

    Harry and Meghan’s wedding was a perfect union, a flawless counterpart to Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding seven years prior, yet the two ceremonies were different in many ways.

    As expected, Kate and William’s wedding held greater significance because it marked the union of a future king and queen.

    One of the notable differences before the ceremony was that Kate Middleton arrived with her father, while Meghan arrived with her mother, due to her more complicated relationship with her father, Thomas, in recent years.

    In photos of the two brides, Meghan waved to the crowd more casually, with her fingers spread apart. In contrast, Kate’s wave was more formal, with her fingers held close together.

    Royal experts questioned the guest list of Harry and Meghan. Among the rest,  Andrew Morton – the author of Diana: Her True Story, said, “[Meghan] populated the wedding with A-list Hollywood celebrities who… have proved their worth to her by speaking out in public about the criticisms of her,” Morton said. “I don’t think she (had) even met Oprah Winfrey (before the wedding). I don’t know whether Harry had. But she invited these people along, and now she has her own court.

    “She’s a new player and she’s been quick out (of) the starting box. Unlike Prince Harry’s friends who keep quiet, Megan’s A-list celebrity friends, the court of Meghan, is a very voluble court and they’re very powerful.”

    That something was off with Harry and Meghan and the rest of the royals was evident just days after the wedding, as per Jonny Dymond, royal correspondent for the BBC.

    “I mean, within days, really …There were stories coming out about how Megan behaved towards staff,” he said in the BBC documentary The Prince and the Press.

    Camilla Tominey – who first broke the story of Harry and Meghan’s relationship, added – “We were getting briefings that all was not well, with the relationship between William and Harry, Meghan, and Kate, and the relationship between Harry and Meghan and the royal household.”

    According to Meghan, before the split with the Firm, she and Harry allegedly asked for a permission to move to another country in the Commonwealth, perhaps South Africa or Canada. However, the answer was a resounding no.

    “Anything to just … because just by existing, we were upsetting the dynamic of the hierarchy. So we go, ‘Okay, fine, let’s get out of here. Happy to,’” Meghan recalled during a recent interview with The Cut.

    Saying that other Royal Family members had gotten the green light for the same arrangement, she added, “That, for whatever reason, is not something that we were allowed to do, even though several other members of the family do that exact thing.”

    Now, six years later, the Sussexes have established a completely new life for themselves and their two children at the States.

    But, according to one expert, their seemingly perfect marriage and luxurious lifestyle are “too good to be true.”

    Royal expert Ingrid Seward, speaking to The Sun, explained that Harry and Meghan’s “Disneyesque” 2018 wedding brought them the affection of the public, but unfortunately, this favorable opinion didn’t last.

    “We loved them for a while, and then we didn’t much anymore. Too many complaints. But they were in love and that mattered. Until they left and then they didn’t matter anymore. They had let the Queen down, they had let the Prince of Wales down, they had let William, then the Duke of Cornwall down,” Seward said.

    “They had let us down. Harry was stoic. He loved his Californian lifestyle. He loved his wife and children. But he was bitter against everything he had left behind including his brother and his father and his sister-in-law, Kate.”

    When they departed from the Firm, Harry and Meghan referred to leaving Britain as to a “freedom flight.”

    Moreover, Seward added that Harry’s life is a “success” when judging his financial success. However, “he as a man,” the royal expert added,” is not a success.”

    “As a husband and father, he has done brilliantly. And when he and Meghan celebrate their six-year anniversary on Sunday (today) they will pat themselves on the back,” Seward told The Sun.

    “People said it wouldn’t last and it has! Harry is no longer feted in his homeland as he once was. If anything, he is pitied. I don’t think Harry can see it. He is happy in his rarefied world with Meghan doing what they do. Long may it last – and I think it will.”

    Historian Gareth Russell said that Harry and Meghan, in one way, are forming “an alternative royal family.

    “To all intents and purposes that is a real possibility. The problem for the Sussexes is that once you start doing anything like that, people become a lot more critical of what you do outside that – like commercial endeavours or quasi-royal tours,” Russell said speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive.

    “People will put them under more of a microscope because they’re calling it ‘The Office of Harry and Meghan’. It’s interesting. I wonder is it part of a plan to pivot from some harsh headlines they’ve had in the last year or two? Is it maybe a slightly more social conservative direction and have themselves as royals in exile for want of a better word?”

    The historian concluded, “I wonder is that them acting on advice that people don’t want to hear them criticising the royal family. Their popularity at the moment is pretty low in America but that could change. Public opinion is always a bit of a rollercoaster. But they absolutely could (go on a US tour) and there’s indications that they will.”

    Do you believe Harry and Meghan would be able to make things right with the rest of the royals?

    Kate Middleton and her children ‘upset’ with Prince William’s recent decision

    Before Kate Middleton decided to open up about her health condition and disclosed her cancer diagnosis with the world, both she and the Palace found themselves in the middle of rumors and plenty of conspiracy theories, some more bizarre than others.

    Besides that, the Princess of Wales decided to remain silent until she felt it was the right time to address the public and the media. Some claim that she chose the exact date and timing for releasing the video in which she spoke of her cancer because at that time her children’s school had already closed so they wouldn’t have to face comments and questions by their schoolmates right away.

    Further, as much as Kate wanted to protect her children, she also wanted to protect her husband, Prince William.

    DERBY, ENGLAND – OCTOBER 06: Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge visits students at the University of Derby to hear how the pandemic has impacted university life and what national measures have been put in place to support student mental health on October 6, 2020 in Derby, England.

    Speaking to GB News, author Alexander Larman argued that the conspiracies surrounding Kate Middleton showed that the world is “obsessed with the health of the royal family,” and “look to them so set an example.”

    Additionally, Larman said, “The trolls have carried on to this day. But one thing that’s very interesting is if you look at the difference between the responses. Buckingham Palace came forward very quickly and gave a fairly candid idea of what’s happening with Charles with his illness, and Kensington Palace didn’t.”

    He continued: “I think that’s because Prince William is much more into the vein of never complain, never explain, which was his great grandfather’s motto, and has always served the Royal Family well.

    “But it doesn’t hold up in 2024 because you’ve got to allow the idea the information is going to get out into the public, whether you like it or not.”

    Since Kate shared her diagnosis, she and her family spent plenty of time at Anmer Hall at Sandringham, including the three weeks of school break the children had.

    On April 23, Prince Louis celebrated his sixth birthday, and his parents shared an adorable photo of him for the happy occasion.

    Throughout the years, it was Kate who usually took the photos of her children, but since the incident involving the Mother’s Day photo when she shared an image that she had previously edited, many believed she won’t be taking Louis’s photo this year, but the princess kept tradition alive.

    “Happy 6th Birthday, Prince Louis! Thank you for all the kind wishes today,” the caption read.

    LONDON, ENGLAND – MAY 08: Prince Louis of Wales and Catherine, Princess of Wales take part in the Big Help Out, during a visit to the 3rd Upton Scouts Hut in Slough on May 8, 2023 in London, England. The Big Help Out is a day when people are encouraged to volunteer in their communities. It is part of the celebrations of the Coronation of Charles III and his wife, Camilla, as King and Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the other Commonwealth realms that took place at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, May 6, 2023.

    Following Kate’s disclosure of her diagnosis, her family remained silent. Except for Queen Camilla’s brief mention of the princess some weeks ago during a royal engagement, there have been no further updates provided. However, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams suggests that William’s recent comments about his wife might be conveying a hidden message to the public.

    Prince William made a public engagement on April 18 during which he helped out at a food distribution charity called Surplus to Supper. Volunteer Rachel Candappa handed the future king two get-well-soon cards addressed to his father and his wife.

    Visibly moved, William told her, “Thank you, you are very kind.”

    Since this was William’s first public appearance after Kate’s disclosure of her diagnosis, Richard Fitzwilliams believes the prince sends a “well-timed” hidden message: Things are on the way to normality again.

    Fitzwilliams remarked that Prince William’s participation in the food distribution charity implies that both he and Kate Middleton are progressing toward resuming their royal duties.

    “We know William is going back to royal duties shortly. The royal family obviously needs him. This was an important appearance, simply in the sense that it was what one would call normal. Obviously, with the royal family very little is actually normal at the moment. He is clearly looking after the children as far as feasible. I mean, it’s it’s a burden William has. It sent this message that things some things are going on, more or less as normal,” the royal author told The Sun.

    “On the other hand, we know they’re not, and we know it’s a very difficult time,” he concluded.

    “He and Catherine are attached to some 50 or so patronages – for example, mental health or homelessness, or the Earthshot prize. They know perfectly well there’s this tremendous cachet when either of them are attached to a particular institution or cause. Polls have made absolutely clear where the public support lies, and the fact that they are so highly regarded.”

    As reported by Hello!, Kensington Palace has confirmed that William is set to engage in two public engagements that will see him leave Windsor for an overnight stay. And as this isn’t anything unusual, during these times for the royal family it may mean that things do start to change for the better.

    Following a break to spend more time with his wife amidst her diagnosis, the Prince of Wales has resumed his public duties. The Times reports that he intends to ramp up his schedule of public appearances over the next two months, ahead of his children – Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis – going on summer break in July and August.

    Despite his efforts to carry out the royal duties impeccably, his wife and children sometimes get upset with William. An occasion like that took place a few days ago when William visited the Isles of Scilly, the archipelago located off the southwestern tip of Cornwall, over which William became the Duke when Charles became king in September 2022.

    As per Express, William said the trip had “upset” his wife and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

    He said they were “upset I’m here without them” as he praised the glorious weather.

    “My family are very upset I’m here without them. The children will kill me if I don’t go home later,” William said.

    William’s remark about his family was definitely amusing, but it probably has a deeper significance. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond suggests that his two-night absence indicates to the public that things are doing well.

    “I’ve no doubt that Catherine’s parents will be staying with her, but even so it must be a step in the right direction. Hopefully Catherine is feeling stronger every day and, with the sun now shining, she’ll be able to enjoy the great outdoors which, for her, has always been restorative,” she told OK!.

    Melania Trump’s savage 8-word-remark to husband Donald after former president ‘struggled’ on stage

    Melania Trump first met her future husband at a Kit Kat Club event during the New York Fashion Week in 1998, when the famous Italian businessman Paolo Zampolli, who helped her get a work visa to the U.S. brought a friend, Donald Trump. He was with a date that night, but when he saw Melania, he immediately wanted to know more about her.

    One of Melania’s friends, Edit Molnar, spoke of that night and explained that Donald asked Melania for her number, but she didn’t give it to him because he wasn’t alone. “Melania said, ‘He’s here with a woman. I am absolutely not giving him my number,’” Molnar told New York Post. “She wouldn’t even consider it. Donald did all the work.”

    Melania also spoke of the night she first met Donald Trump. “He wanted my number,” she told Tatler. “But he was on a date, so of course I didn’t give it to him. I said, ‘I am not giving you my number; give me yours and I will call you.’ If I give him my number, I’m just one of the women he calls.”

    WASHINGTON, DC – SEPTEMBER 03: First Lady Melania Trump attends an event to mark National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month in the East Room of the White House on September 3, 2020 in Washington, DC. The First Lady hosted a round table event with people who are recovering from substance use and mental health issues. (Photo by Drew Angerer/Getty Images)

    After they met again, one thing led to another and the two started a relationship. In 2001, at the time Melania got her green card, she was already living at Trump Tower.

    They tied the knot some three years later, and in 2006, they welcomed their son Barron Trump.

    Melania did end her career as a model, but she never stopped working, regardless of her husband’s enormous wealth.

    When Donald Trump became a president, Melania was very supportive of her husband and executed the role of a First Lady just perfectly.

    In her new book titled I’ll Take Your Questions Now, former senior aide and press secretary to Donald Trump, Stephanie Grisham, revealed plenty of juicy details about the Trumps.

    For one, Grisham writes about what it was like to be working for the former First Lady, Melania Trump. She also recalls one specific moment when Trump went mad over his wife’s “mistake,” which made him target of wide criticism. Namely, on her way to a migrant housing facility in Texas, Melania wore a jacket with the text “I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?”

    In an attempt to help improve the image of her husband’s administration, Melania’s wrong choice of wardrobe only made things worse, and she eventually abandoned the program.

    I’ll Take Your Questions Now also reveals that some of the staff working for the Secret Service in the White House didn’t quite like Melania’s approach to the job.

    Namely, being the First Lady, she was expected to be working from her office in the East Wing, but instead, she spent most of her time in the executive resident.

    During the four years at the White House, Melania was reportedly spotted in her office only “a handful of times.”

    “Mrs. Trump was working from home long before the country was,” Grisham wrote, referring to the Covid-19 pandemic, as reported by CNN.

    “When warranted, we would have in-person meetings, but those generally took place in the Map Room across from the elevators to the residence. There we would plan out schedules, respond to pressing queries, and discuss goals. Other than that, the first lady kept to her rooms in the residence.”

    Apparently, Melania was busy with “self-care” and would spend long hours sleeping.

    “She believed that relaxation was central to one’s beauty regimen, as were, of course, spa treatments and facials.”

    All this led to the staff at the Secret Service to secretly call her Rapunzel, because “she remained in her tower, never descending.”

    Currently, Donald Trump is in the middle of a “hush-money” trial and Melania is not in the courtroom. The reason why is because she wants to protect her son from media scrutiny.

    “Melania is good at taking care of business at hand, which includes her own life, the life of her son, and the lives of her close family members,” a source told People Magazine in August last year.

    “She would not stand in a circle of people she knows and openly comment on the lawsuits or the mug shot. She will have her way of dealing with this and anything else publicly when she feels like it,” the source added. “Remember, Melania is a mom with a not-yet-adult son to protect. A mug shot that everyone is talking about is just one more issue to wade through.”

    If their marriage is solid or shaking, as some claim, can not be said with certainty.

    What’s known is that Melania has always been someone who tends to avoid the spotlight, and now that Trump is in the middle of a presidential campaign and a trial doesn’t change that fact.

    Once, Melania mocked Donald after he struggled to find the exit from the stage at a rally.

    During a Wildwood, New Jersey rally, Donald Trump told the crowd that he no longer does an impression of Joe Biden – because Melania thought it was really him.

    Trump recalled, “I called my wife [Melania Trump], the great first lady…I called our first lady – I said, ‘First Lady, how great a speech was that? ‘”

    “I called my wife, the great first lady,’ Trump said. ‘I said, ‘First lady, how great a speech was that? ‘She said ‘You were OK’. I said, ‘What’s wrong? ‘. She said, ‘Well, you couldn’t find your way off stage!’

    Dad takes disabled daughter to prom, finds $10k check for ‘dad of the year’ in mailbox later

    When Molly’s parents divorced, she was still very young. Her dad, Danny, was out of her life and she grew up with her mom, Daisy.

    Around ten years since her mom and dad split, her mom passed away. Molly was heartbroken because she felt her world shattered into a million pieces. All of a sudden, she was all by herself, with no one by her side except for some family members and few friends.

    As she was shedding tears over her mom’s coffin, Molly, who was in her wheelchair, felt someone’s hand landing on her back. It was her dad whom she hadn’t seen in years. She had only heard about him from her mother, who didn’t always speak nice of the man she believed abandoned them.

    When the funeral was over, Danny asked Molly to move in with him. She was hesitant because she grew up without her father, but now he was there and he was ready to take her in and take care of her.

    Due to an injury from the time she was still very young, Molly had troubles using her left leg, so when she wasn’t moving around with the help of her clutches, she was in her wheelchair.

    Molly and Danny tried to bond, and he seemed to be a great person, contrary to what her mother had told her about him. Danny did try really hard to be the father his daughter deserved. But during the night, he would sneak out of the house, which made Molly sure of her mother’s accusations of him that he was spending time with his friends at the pub and wasn’t spending the nights at home.

    Despite that, Molly felt secure by her dad’s side.

    One night, as he arrived home, he heard Molly crying loudly in her room. He rushed to her and asked her what was wrong, but she refused to tell him what troubled her. Danny, however, insisted. His heart crushed with every tear that rolled down his daughter’s face. Assuring her that she can tell him everything, Molly finally opened up. She told her dad that she was the only one from the class who didn’t have a partner for the upcoming prom. Hearing this, Danny’s soul ached.

    “I don’t have a date, I even asked some boys if one of them would at least dance with me during prom, but they refused and laughed,” Molly said. I don’t want to go to the prom, daddy, I want to be alone! Goodnight!”

    Danny wouldn’t let Molly miss her prom. The following day, he purchased an amazing gown for her and told her she wouldn’t be alone on her special night.

    When the prom night arrived, Danny, who worked as a truck driver, parked his huge truck in front of the school and honked loudly. When all eyes were on him, he got out of the truck, pulled the wheelchair out, and pushed his daughter on the red carpet as the gathering watched in amazement.

    As the music rolled, the father and daughter danced in the middle of the dance floor, with Danny carrying his daughter in his arms. For a moment, Molly forgot that she had a disability and laughed her heart out as her dad kept swaying her. “My dad is my real superhero. I love him more than anything else in this world. I feel blessed and proud to say I’m his daughter,” Molly told her classmates that night.

    The two had a lot of fun, but what they didn’t know was that after that night, their lives would be changed forever.

    When they arrived home, Danny confessed to Molly that he and her mother divorced after he started not spending the nights at home. But contrary to what his wife thought, Danny wasn’t out drinking, but he was working a second job at a nursing home in order to be able to gather money for Molly’s surgery that would help her walk by herself again. Molly’s mom didn’t trust Danny, so the two decided to part their ways.

    Unsplash

    The following morning, when Danny got back home from work, he noticed an envelope in the mailbox. On it, there was a card attached that read, “Dad of the Year!”

    Inside the envelop, Danny found $10,000 and a letter. “Dear Danny, we hope this will improve your daughter’s life. Good luck with her surgery, and we hope you spend more time with her in the evenings. Best Wishes, Your Prom Buddies!”

    Danny couldn’t believe his eyes. He realized it was the parents he’d met the previous night who were behind this incredible act.

    He was quick to enter the house and share the news with his girl. “Really?! My God, daddy…This is unbelievable!”

    Unsplash

    With the money Danny had saved and the $10,000 check, Molly got her surgery. It was successful, and gradually, she was able to walk without crutches.

    As his goal was reached, Danny quit the night job and he was able to spend more time with his daughter and hopefully make up for the years he had spent away from her.

    Elon Musk shakes up television with daring acquisition and dismissal?

    The name of Elon Musk has been making headlines throughout the years. The boss of X (formerly Twitter), Tesla and SpaceX, who now tends to play a bigger role in the fast-growing world of artificial intelligence, was rumored to have bought the ABC TV network.

    This rumor started following a Facebook meme that attracted the attention of many. Later, however, it became apparent that this claim lacked credible evidence to support it.

    The meme had a photo of Joy Behar, one of the hosts of the talk show The View, with a comment alleging that “Elon Musk issued a tender offer to buy ‘The View’ outright for $17 and a coupon for a free appetizer at Applebee’s.”

    What’s most, media outlets picked up the meme along with a story that Musk fired the entire crew of The View.

    The article, initially published on a Facebook page named Love Style, read, “In a surprising turn of events, Elon Musk, the influential CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has made a bold move that has grabbed the attention of the entertainment world. He has acquired ABC and wasted no time in dismissing the entire cast of the long-running talk show, The View. This unprecedented decision has sent shockwaves throughout the industry, leaving fans and critics in awe.”

    It continued: “According to sources close to Musk, he took this daring step due to his dissatisfaction with the show’s repetitive arguments and lack of innovation. In a statement, Musk expressed his frustration, saying, ‘I’ve been watching ‘The View’ for years, and it feels like the same tired discussions over and over again. I’ve had enough of it, and I believe it’s time for a fresh approach to daytime talk shows.'”

    This story turned out not to be true. Musk neither purchased ABC nor he fired the show’s cast.

    However, once the story spread, many believed it was true and re-shared it. Many even commented, with one person writing, “I really like this guy. ‘The View’ should have been gone a long time ago. Thank you, Elon!!,” and another adding, “About time. Someone had to raise the intellectual standards of the American viewer.”
