Wendy Williams has been spotted!

About a week ago, she and son Kevin Hunter Jr. walked into a holistic health store in Newark, New Jersey, and snapped some pictures with the man who runs the place. That’s a BIG deal, because it marks the first time the Wendy Williams Show alum has been seen in public in 18 months!

Per Page Six, Wendy and Kevin went into a shop called Bolingo Balance in the city of Newark. There, they not only purchased some products, but also took pictures with a man named Victor Bowman. He runs the store, and is the son of its late owner — renowned holistic health practitioner Dr. Sebi, AKA Alfredo Bowman. As you can see (below), Wendy was smiling in good spirits as she posed with Victor:

Amazing!

And that’s not all. An employee told Page Six that Wendy was “sharp, upbeat, and aware” during the visit, and had been “very bubbly” while chatting with Bowman. At one point, she sat down with Victor and had him explain some products. The worker noted that while the 60-year-old daytime television alum wasn’t as knowledgeable, she listened closely as they were explained to her:

“She was engaging but wasn’t as familiar with what we do here, so her son was more explaining things. She talked about circulation improvement but didn’t want to get into too much detail on their first meeting and plans to come back in the near future.”

In the end, Bowman sent Williams away with several holistic products, including iron-rich herbs like contribo, sarsaparilla, and bottano oil. Plus, she received a bottle of Dr. Sebi’s famed capsules which promote hormonal balance. Gotta have hormonal balance!

It’s not clear exactly which day Wendy showed up at Bolingo Balance, but per Page Six, Bowman first shared the above photo on his Facebook page on August 19. So, it seems this was a recent development! And considering this is the first time Wendy has been seen in public since March of 2023, it’s big news!

With all that she is going through while battling Graves’ disease, lymphedema, frontotemporal dementia, and even primary progressive aphasia, she’s got a lot on her plate. We’re glad that she’s focusing on her heath. And we’re glad her son could be there for her, too! Reactions, y’all?? Share ’em (below)!

King Charles III has encouraging news to reveal — and he’s doing it in the most understated way possible.

Of course, the monarch is in the midst of a fight against cancer right now, and has been undergoing treatments to battle the disease for months. Well, this week, the 75-year-old gave a bit more insight into that fight, and how it’s been going. And he only needed four words to do it!

The occasion in question was an event held for those affected by the Southport mass stabbing, which occurred at a Taylor Swift-themed event in that city on July 29. The tragedy left three young children dead, and several other people injured. On Wednesday, King Charles met with the families of those who were lost, as well as surviving victims of the tragedy. The entire event was emotionally charged, as you’d expect. But along the way, he also gave some insight into the upheavals in his personal life, too.

According to Express, one of the attendees at the somber event briefly changed the subject to politely ask Prince William‘s father how he was coming along with his cancer fight. And King Charles offered up some good news! In a very low-key way, at least. Needing just four words to answer the query, he said:

“I’m not too bad.”

We love to hear that! Per that same outlet, he appeared to be in fine fettle while interacting with those at the memorial. Obviously, it was not a happy event with lots of smiles and laughs, so he wasn’t carefree or heartening in that way. But it’s great to hear that Charles is currently upbeat about his battle nonetheless!

Here’s hoping he (and Princess Catherine, who is of course fighting her own cancer battle, as well) will come through this swimmingly and return to form! Rooting for them both! Thoughts, y’all? Share ’em in the comments (below)…

Tim Walz is one lucky father.

Kamala Harris’ presidential running mate brought the house down at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night — with a little help from his proud son! While officially accepting the democratic nomination for Vice President of the United States, the Minnesota governor delivered a powerful speech filled with heart. And he of course gave a beautiful shoutout to his family! While discussing his and wife Gwen’s struggle to get pregnant years ago, the 60-year-old emotionally looked at his family and said:

Hope, Gus, and Gwen, you are my entire world and I love you.”

The camera cut to a shot of the mother and their kids, who were clearly moved by their father’s touching words. Tim’s 17-year-old son Gus, who is neurodivergent and someone who struggles with learning disabilities, couldn’t fight back tears while listening to his pops. He pointed at Tim from the crowd and proudly yelled, “That’s my dad!” as he happily clapped and shook his head in approval with tears rolling down his face. So sweet!

After Tim wrapped up his speech, his family joined him on stage where Gus embraced his dad in a big hug. You can watch Tim’s emotional speech (below):

On X (Twitter), users were blown away by the family’s pride for their patriarch. United States Senator Amy Klobuchar wrote:

“You know you’ve done well as a parent when your kids are as proud of you as Gus and Hope are of Tim Walz. “That’s my dad.” No three words better describe our next Vice President.”

On Instagram on Monday, the Only Murders In The Building star shared an adorable, raw clip of when she found out she got a role in the upcoming movie Emilia Pérez. In the video, Selly G got all choked up after she was told that she got the part of Jessi Del Monte:

“I can’t believe I got the movie! I’m so gonna cry right now, I don’t want to cry.”

Her friend Gabby, who was filming, encouraged her to let all her feelings out as she sat on the couch. The 32-year-old then started wiping tears from her eyes as she excitedly said:

“I don’t want to cry! This is gonna be so cool, Gabby!”

Aww. Such a candid moment! See the clip for yourself (below):

Too sweet. And this all comes on the heels of the film getting a standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival — which, FYI, did make Selena cry for real that time! We love to see her thriving!!

Deadpool and Wolverine was full of easter eggs… But one at the VERY end had much more heart than anyone realized.

If you saw the latest Marvel superhero movie, you may have noticed at the end of the credits a single line reads, “For Henry Delaney.” For those who don’t know, that was in reference to a very sad story. Henry is the late son of star Rob Delaney, who memorably plays adorably normal guy Peter in the franchise. Henry died of a brain tumor at just 2 years old. It was a devastating loss.

And Ryan is opening up about why it was so important to include the dedication that, for once, was completely somber and not at all a joke.

In an Instagram post dedicated to Rob on Tuesday, the 47-year-old gushed about his “funny,” “beautiful,” “acerbic,” and “vulnerable” friend who suffered a loss like no other six years ago. Ryan wrote:

“If you stayed through the credits of Deadpool & Wolverine, you might notice a credit saying, “For Henry Delaney”. Henry is Rob’s son. And Rob lost his little boy to a brain tumor in 2018. Right as we finished Deadpool 2.”

He continued:

“I’ve always kicked my own ass because I didn’t place a tribute to Henry over the end credits of DP2. If there’s a bright side, even more people are seeing Henry’s name in the credits of Deadpool & Wolverine. And at long last, father and son are sharing the same screen.”

Awww. What a beautiful tribute. You can see the IF star’s full post (below):

Machine Gun Kelly recently revealed he’s sober again. And it turns out he got clean after his daughter candidly — and heartbreakingly — called him out for his substance abuse.

The 34-year-old recording artist, whose real name is Colson Baker, opened up about his personal life on Sunday as a guest on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast. This isn’t the first podcast in recent weeks on which MGK has shared some really heavy personal stuff. But as you’ll soon see, this is definitely the most touching and inspirational of all his recent reveals…

Related: MGK Chooses ‘Pain’ Rather Than Saying Anything Mean About Taylor Swift! Smart, TBH!

The topic this time around was the Bloody Valentine singer’s previous years of substance abuse, and the impetus for finally getting clean and sober after living for so long with a clouded head: his teenage daughter Casie Colson Baker! As MGK explained during the interview, the 15-year-old — whom MGK shares with his ex Emma Cannon — came to him a few years ago, when she was just 11 or 12, and confronted him about not being sober. The way she said it at the time was so candid and chilling, too:

“It started with my daughter saying, ‘Dad, you know I can tell when you’re high.'”

OMG…

That’s a sobering thought if ever we’ve heard one. We don’t even know how we’d respond to something like that. And obviously, MGK was thrown by it at the time, too. He recalled being crushed over her admission:

“It broke my heart. It was like the ultimate letdown.”

Seriously, tho. So freakin’ sad!

But there is a happy ending to that story. Even though it took a little while longer for MGK to get clean — as he readily admitted, “obviously drugs have a vice grip on you” — he did step back from his substance abuse habits. And looking back on it now, the Emo Girl singer can confidently say that it was Casie’s confrontation that got him on the right path. That part of this story is SO good!!

The recording artist also did a lot of work on himself after Casie’s life-changing comment. That included reflecting on why he jumped into drugs in the first place, which came about in part due to childhood trauma involving his own father failing to step up. As MGK grew up, that trauma led to the star’s young adulthood spent abusing substances:

“Really that’s just a reflection of him [my dad] not being who he wanted to be. To be the father I wish my dad would have been, I have to break this generational curse for my kid.”

Breaking generational curses is clearly a thing that’s been on MGK’s mind quite a bit recently. As you may recall, that is also a major theme in his most recent single and music video for Lonely Road alongside Jelly Roll. Clearly, he’s thinking a lot about the future, and his daughter. And we love to see that things are going well now! Reactions and well wishes, y’all?! Share ’em (below)!

If you or someone you know is experiencing substance abuse, help is available. Consider checking out the resources SAMHSA provides at https://www.samhsa.gov/find-help/national-helpline or check out StartYourRecovery.org.

He family revealed in a GoFundMe at the time that her body was “shattered” with “life threatening injuries.” But with countless surgeries, recovery, and an unbreakable spirit, the When Calls the Heart actress miraculously made it back up on her feet! And now back home!

The revelation occurred on JoJo’s IG Stories on Wednesday afternoon. During what appeared to be a dance class inside a tiny studio, Wilson could be seen dancing around in front of a mirror before abruptly pausing to make an announcement to those assembled in the room. She needed only five words to drop the dime:

“So, I have a girlfriend!”

And then… she wrapped her arms around Siwa! The pair embraced each other warmly as the entire room erupted in cheers and applause! On IG, Siwa captioned the reveal with “Cats outta the bag,” indicating that the whole world was about to learn of their relationship. Surprise!

That wasn’t the only sweet ‘ship content JoJo gave us on Wednesday, either. Hours later, she returned to her IG Stories to deliver this heartwarming photo (below) of the pair holding hands and spending quality time together during a so-called “perfect day”:

So freakin’ sweet! BTW, Dakayla re-posted that second pic and put her own caption on it:

“Literally the most perfect day.”

Love that!

Per People, it’s not clear how long Siwa and Wilson have been dating, or what first brought them together. Obvi, they are both deep in the dance world, so that likely helped forge their connection.

Looks like JoJo has moved all the way on from her awful last dating situation with social media star Avery Cyrus! Reactions, y’all?? Share ’em (below)!
