Christina Applegate’s “Married… With Children” co-star David Faustino is sharing a heartbreaking update on how the actress is doing as she continues her battle with Multiple Sclerosis. Faustino, who famously played Bud Bundy opposite Christina Applegate’s Kelly Bundy on the beloved sitcom, revealed the actress has been candid with him about the difficult reality of living with the debilitating autoimmune disease.

Speaking to Us Weekly, Faustino admitted it has been difficult watching his longtime friend navigate the disease after Applegate was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2021.

“It’s extremely difficult for me to understand having a debilitating disease,” Faustino said. “I can’t. I don’t know what that’s like. I can only go from her experience and what she’s told me. I admire her being strong in the face of this, even though it’s been a real blow.”

The actor also revealed that despite the challenges, Applegate has managed to maintain the sharp wit fans have long associated with her. “It’s been very hard for her, but she does keep her humor,” Faustino shared.

Applegate Is Still Using Humor To Get Through It

According to Faustino, Applegate’s trademark sarcasm has remained intact despite the life-altering diagnosis.

The actor recalled that the actress had a “dry, sarcastic sense of humor since the moment I met her” while filming “Married… With Children,” which ran for 10 seasons before ending in 1997. “Nothing has changed,” Faustino said, describing Applegate as still “extremely sarcastic, extremely dry.”

“She gets through this with some humor, and that’s kind of her way that she moves through it,” Faustino said before adding that he continues to be a constant source of support for the actress. “I’m there as a support, as a person on her team that gives her as much love as I can.”

David Faustino Says He Frequently Checks In On Christina Applegate

The longtime friends have remained close since the sitcom wrapped decades ago, with Faustino saying they have leaned on one another even more since Applegate’s diagnosis.

“I do a lot of visits with her. A lot of texting, a lot of checking in. A lot of funny just crap that we talk about. And that’s all I can do, right? Give her my love,” he said. “We do have deep convos when we sit. But we also keep the laughter [going] as well.”

Applegate has largely stayed out of the public eye in recent years as she manages her health. Her last major red carpet appearance came at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Applegate Previously Opened Up About Her Health Struggles

In recent years, Applegate has spoken candidly about the physical toll MS has taken on her body. Earlier this year, the actress revealed she had been hospitalized more than 30 times due to what she described as “unimaginable” pain connected to the disease.

Speaking on her “MesSY” podcast with Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Applegate said, “This is really important because for three years, since I was diagnosed, I’ve been in the hospital upwards of 30 times from throwing up, diarrhea and pain that is unimaginable.”

“They’ve done every test known to man on me, put so much radiation into my body from CT scans to everything else,” she continued.

Christina Applegate’s Loved Ones Are Reportedly Bracing For The Worst

As Applegate continues navigating life with Multiple Sclerosis, the emotional toll has reportedly extended beyond the actress herself and onto those closest to her. During the March 31 episode of the “MesSY” podcast, Jamie-Lynn Sigler revealed she and Applegate would be taking a brief hiatus amid their respective book tours. Applegate’s memoir offers an emotional look into her ongoing battle with the neurodegenerative disease.

Following reports of Applegate’s recent hospitalization, sources close to the actress reportedly opened up about how deeply her health struggles have affected her inner circle. According to a source, “everyone has it in the back of their minds that they might not have a tomorrow with her.”

Another insider claimed Applegate experiences “better days and really bad days,” but added, “she doesn’t have great days.” Still, the source noted Applegate continues fighting through the difficult moments with the support of her loved ones, who remain hopeful she will surpass expectations despite growing concerns surrounding her health.

These days, the Star Trek fandom is on the verge of a warp core breach. The sudden cancellation of Starfleet Academy means that there are no new shows on the horizon. Meanwhile, Paramount has pivoted and wants to focus exclusively on making Trek movies, the first of which will likely reboot the entire universe for the second time. That would potentially wipe out 60 years of continuity in favor of yet another creative gamble that may or may not actually gain the franchise any new fans, but will almost certainly drive many older fans away.

Now, with the Justice Department approving Paramount’s purchase of Warner Bros., the Star Trek fandom is divided. Some believe that this is exactly what the franchise needs; that taking a break from nonstop content so that new creators can try new approaches could lead to a new golden age of Star Trek. Others are distrustful of Paramount’s leadership and believe it would be better for the franchise to die altogether than slowly become right-wing sci-fi. However, both the extreme optimism and the extreme pessimism miss the mark, and the truth about Star Trek’s future is somewhere in the middle. 

When Fans Get Sick Of Star Trek

This may come as a great shock to you, but I, uh, spend a lot of time online. Lately, I’ve spent a fair amount of time in the r/startrek subreddit and various fandom Facebook groups as everyone discusses a singular topic: the future of Star Trek. The future of the franchise already seemed dire when Starfleet Academy was canceled. Regardless of that show’s quality (or lack thereof), its cancellation meant that (thanks to Strange New Worlds having already wrapped) we had no new Trek shows in production for the first time in over a decade. That obviously put something of a damper on celebrating the franchise’s 60th anniversary!

This, combined with changes at Paramount, has soured some fans on Star Trek even having a future. After the previous merger with Skydance, David Ellison (son of billionaire Oracle founder Larry Ellison) now runs Paramount. The new boss is a very prominent conservative who is cozy with Donald Trump, and under Ellison’s leadership, conservative mouthpiece Bari Weiss has been hired to run CBS News into the ground. Because of these factors, many blackpilled Star Trek fans have become convinced of two things: 1) Ellison will leverage his influence to make Trek more conservative and less progressive, and 2) they’d rather see Trek die than become a franchise people like Trump would enjoy.

Trek, When The Walls Fell

Obviously, there are some optimists in the fandom that see all this disruption as an opportunity for their favorite franchise. Starfleet Academy wasn’t canceled because people hated its super-woke characters; it was canceled because not very many people were watching it. That’s a product of bad writing and bad leadership, but Alex Kurtzman was just certain that Star Trek fans would love a show about hormonal teen drama. He was wrong about this and many other things (more on that in a minute), so the optimists think that any change in leadership will lead to new writers, new ideas, and a bold new vision for this 60-year-old franchise.

Ironically enough, both the optimists and the pessimists are half-right and half-wrong. Pessimists need to realize that, regarding the politics of the man in charge, Star Trek has still managed to thrive under some people who wouldn’t pass a political purity test. Franchise creator Gene Roddenberry was a progressive visionary, but he was also a womanizer who feared putting gay characters in Trek and greenlit stuff like “Code of Honor,” the most racist Trek episode ever created. Later, the entire Golden Age of Star Trek was overseen by Rick Berman, a progressive who nonetheless killed gay storylines and was allegedly misogynistic to female cast members like Terry Farrell and Jeri Ryan.

Neither Side Is Fully Right 

Where am I going with this? Basically, Star Trek became a cultural institution under progressive leaders who, nonetheless, had some very regressive attitudes towards certain things. With that in mind, it’s entirely possible that future directors and showrunners will be more progressive, even if they work for conservative leadership. It helps that Ellison is apparently a big fan of Star Trek, previously calling it one of Paramount’s most “beloved franchises.” As I have written about before, conservatives love the same Trek that progressives do, just for different reasons. So we are far likelier to get an Original Series-style reboot than, say, MAGA: The Final Frontier.

So, the pessimists are wrong, but does that mean the optimists are right? Not necessarily. It’s true that Alex Kurtzman has driven NuTrek into the ground (literally all but one show was canceled early!), and almost any change in leadership is admittedly going to be a good thing. But focusing almost entirely on Star Trek movies is probably a bad idea, especially because there are nearly one thousand episodes and only 14 films, over half of which are pretty mid. The movie focus, combined with the rumored franchise reboot, may be the nail in the coffin for old-school fans.   

It Could Always Be Worse

In short, the Star Trek fandom is divided, but one thing unites us all: our love for the greatest sci-fi franchise ever made. We all want the best possible future for Trek, and there’s no reason to think the cash-strapped Paramount won’t do its best to generate money with its biggest franchise. That means nobody is actively sabotaging Trek with a political agenda, but they may yet release enough crappy movies and shows to finish a dying franchise off. All fans can do, then, is hope. After all, Rebellions are built on hope.

Wait, that’s the wrong franchise! But that’s a reminder to every Star Trek fan worried about their franchise: just go look at The Mandalorian and Grogu choking at the box office and realize things could always be worse.

Teresa Giudice’s daughter, Milania Giudice, appears to be speaking out in her own way after news of her reported assault arrest made headlines this week. The daughter of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice and ex-husband Joe Giudice shared a pair of cryptic Instagram posts, days after reports surfaced alleging she had been arrested in New Jersey following an incident in May.

Amid growing attention surrounding the case, 20-year-old Milania Giudice took to Instagram Stories to post a photo of a roadside sign that read, “None of us sit high enough to look down on anybody. Be humble.”

She later followed it up with a meme that appeared to reference her close relationship with her mother, writing, “Me and my mama so close sometimes I be forgetting I’m talking to my mama.”

The social media activity marks Milania’s first apparent public response since news of the alleged incident surfaced. However, the 20-year-old has not directly addressed the arrest or publicly commented on the allegations.

Giudice Accused Of ‘Causing Bodily Injury’

According to reports, Milania was accused of “causing bodily injury” and “simple assault” following an alleged incident that reportedly occurred in New Jersey on May 14 at approximately 6:12 p.m. Montville Township Police reportedly made the arrest, with the matter filed under “domestic violence/confidential.”

The 20-year-old was scheduled to appear in court on May 19, though the outcome of the case remains unclear at this time. The reported incident came shortly after the end of Milania’s sophomore year at the University of Tampa.

Teresa And Joe Giudice’s Family Has Long Been In The Public Eye

Milania is one of four daughters Teresa shares with ex-husband Joe Giudice. The former couple is also parents to Gia, Gabriella, and Audriana.

Teresa and Joe famously documented much of their family life on “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” including the legal troubles that ultimately reshaped their family dynamic. In 2009, the pair filed for bankruptcy, setting off a series of legal issues that eventually resulted in both being convicted on fraud-related charges.

Years later, both Teresa and Joe served prison sentences, while Joe’s immigration status came under scrutiny after it was revealed he had never obtained U.S. citizenship despite living in the country since childhood.

Following his release from prison, Joe relocated to Italy while awaiting the outcome of his deportation proceedings. The couple separated in December 2019 and finalized their divorce months later. Joe now lives in the Bahamas, where he is frequently visited by his daughters.

Teresa Giudice Previously Opened Up About The Impact Prison Had On Her Family

Teresa also served nearly a year behind bars, beginning in January 2015 and being released in December of the same year. Following her release, Teresa spoke candidly about how difficult the situation had been on her daughters and revealed she tried to make life feel as normal as possible for them during such a turbulent time.

“It breaks my heart. It’s hard. I try to compensate. Whatever they say. I jump over hoops for them, for whatever they’re going through. Whatever they say to me, I try to do for them, just for the situation. They’re amazing kids,” Teresa said during BravoCon in 2019, per PEOPLE.

Teresa Giudice Previously Said Joe Was ‘Never The One’

In recent years, Teresa has spoken candidly about her relationship with Joe, revealing during an appearance on the “Undressed with Pol and Patrik” podcast that he was “never the one.” “We made beautiful babies together, but that’s about it,” Teresa said at the time.

The reality star, who is now married to Luis Ruelas, praised her husband for being “attentive,” something she suggested had been missing in her previous marriage.

Joe later told TMZ that he agreed with Teresa’s comments, making it clear there was no lingering tension between the former couple. “It’s water under the bridge at this point. We still get along. We still coparent. We do what we gotta do, and that’s the most important thing,” he said, adding that he was happy Teresa Giudice had found love again with Ruelas.

Rosie O’Donnell is sharing the details of her latest visit with her incarcerated daughter, Chelsea O’Donnell, by turning to poetry.

“I arrive early. It’s very hot. I’m wearing shorts. Waiting for her,” O’Donnell, 64, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, June 13, sharing what appears to be a recent photo of the former TV host visiting her daughter in jail.

“In what looks like a children’s nursery room, Disney murals on cement walls. Vending machines. Table 8 — I’m told to sit,” she continued in the caption. “In one of the red chairs. Beige is for the inmate. The guard explained the rules.”

Rosie added, “A hug hello and goodbye only. No money exchanged. Hands above the table. No loud voices. The visit is 4 hours long There r worn out games to play. Scrabble — cards — chutes & ladders. Other families walk in.”

Rosie O’Donnell’s daughter Chelsea O’Donnell checked into prison after violating her probation in a drug case, Us Weekly can exclusively report. Us obtained the mugshot that Chelsea, 28, took on November 18 after entering the Taycheedah Correctional Institution (TCI). In the photo, Chelsea appears stoic with her blue eyes staring directly into the camera. TCI […]

In October 2025, Chelsea was sentenced to serve prison time after allegedly violating the terms of her six-year probation stemming from three back-to-back drug-related arrests. She was first arrested in September 025, on charges of drug possession and child neglect. She was arrested again on October 11, for drugs, and a third time on November 18, also for drugs.

“I have compassion for those struggling with addiction,” Rosie exclusively told Us Weekly at the time, reacting to her daughter’s incarceration. “Chelsea was born into addiction and it has been a painful journey for her and her children. We continue to love and support her through these horrible times. Prayers welcomed.”

As part of her plea deal, Chelsea pleaded guilty to some charges while others were dropped. She was sentenced to 18 months in prison but the sentence was “stayed,” meaning she would only have to serve probation as long as she did not get into any legal trouble for six years. Her probation was revoked after she allegedly failed to adequately attend and complete a drug rehab program and was accused of sexual assault.

She is currently serving her time at the Taycheedah Correctional Institution, a women’s maximum-security prison located in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.

On Saturday, Rosie told her many fans and followers that her daughter was “the first thru the door” when she visited her.

“My heart skips a beat. She looks good,” she continued in her poem. “Healthy calm. Rested blue eyes. Clear skin. In her green uniform. We embrace. She smells familiar. Holds on tight. I stare into his eyes. Shy smiles all around. We have been thru so much. We sit — other young women enter. A 4 yr old yells ‘mama.’”

She added, “Running into the open arms of a woman in green who she looks exactly like. This tiny child has been here before. I watch the toddler navigate the candy machine. Reaching into her bag of quarters, grabbing her goodies.”

According to Rosie, all four of Chelsea’s children — three girls and a boy — “have not visited,” which the grandmother says she knows “pains” her daughter.

“I try to stay present as the sky outside blackens, looking ominous,” her poem continued. “I realize I’m sweating. I go splash gold water on my face as tears drop from my eyes. I try to shake the sadness. It’s hard enough for her. She turns 29 this summer, and all I see when I look at her is a blonde baby in diapers.”

Elizabeth Olsen is stepping into an exciting new chapter. The Marvel actress is expecting her first child with husband Robbie Arnett, marking a major milestone for the famously private couple.

The 37-year-old actress was spotted during a lunch date at All Time restaurant in Los Angeles, where she appeared to gently cradle her stomach while leaving the venue. Though Elizabeth Olsen has yet to publicly comment on the pregnancy, the outing seemingly offered fans a first glimpse at her growing bump.

The pregnancy news was confirmed by PEOPLE on Friday. The actress, best known for portraying Wanda Maximoff, aka Scarlet Witch, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has largely kept her personal life out of the public eye, including her relationship with musician Robbie Arnett.

Olsen and Arnett reportedly met through mutual friends while vacationing in Mexico in 2017 and made their first public appearance together later that same year.

The couple moved in together in 2018, with engagement rumors beginning to swirl in 2019.

Olsen Quietly Confirmed Secret Marriage To Arnett

Fans began speculating that the pair had secretly tied the knot in 2021 after Olsen casually referred to the Milo Greene musician as her “husband” during an interview.

She later confirmed the marriage in 2022, revealing the two quietly wed before the COVID-19 pandemic. “We eloped and then we had a wedding at another time,” Olsen shared on “The Jess Cagle Show.” “It was before COVID.”

Olsen Previously Reflected On Balancing Motherhood And Career

Long before pregnancy reports surfaced, Olsen openly discussed her hopes for motherhood and the realities of balancing family life with a demanding acting career.

During a 2021 SiriusXM interview, the actress candidly admitted she often thought about the timing of starting a family while navigating Hollywood. “At what point do I get pregnant? At what point do I have my first baby?” she asked at the time. “Is that five years from now? Because then I only have this kind of a window.”

Before finding love with Arnett, Olsen was engaged to her “Very Good Girls” co-star Boyd Holbrook. The former couple ended their relationship in 2014 after dating for three years.

Olsen And Arnett Have Kept Their Relationship Out Of The Spotlight

Part of what has made Olsen and Arnett’s relationship so intriguing to fans is just how private the pair have remained over the years. Despite being married to one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, Arnett maintains a relatively low public profile and rarely shares updates on social media, even though he has an active Instagram account.

Olsen, meanwhile, stepped away from social media entirely in 2020 and has made it clear she has no plans to return. Speaking to Glamour UK in April 2021, the actress admitted the pressure of curating an online presence never sat right with her.

“[I thought] Wait, why am I even trying to create a character version of myself and put it out in the world?” Olsen shared, explaining that the experience made her feel “uncomfortable.” “And so during the pandemic I was like, ‘Oh this is just not for me.’ And I just got rid of it.”

Elizabeth Olsen Recently Reflected On Growing Up Alongside Mary-Kate And Ashley

The baby news comes months after Olsen opened up about growing up alongside her famous older sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. The twins famously rose to fame as Michelle Tanner on “Full House” before building an entertainment empire and later transitioning into fashion moguls.

While speaking with The Times earlier this year, Olsen described her upbringing as a “chaotic childhood” but emphasized the supportive dynamic within her family. “They were forced to watch all my plays my whole life and go to my dance performances,” she said.

When asked whether her sisters ever offered advice about navigating fame, Olsen admitted, “No. We’re just a supportive family. It feels irrelevant to talk about it after 15 years of working.” “I was the youngest of four. We were all born within five years,” she added.

Olsen is the daughter of Jarnette and David Olsen and grew up alongside siblings James Trent, Mary-Kate, and Ashley before ultimately carving out a Hollywood career of her own.

As Taylor Sheridan continues to oversee the largest and most impressive empire on television, he has already released some of the most popular projects of the year over on Paramount Plus. Sheridan has further expanded the Yellowstone universe with a pair of offshoots, Marshals and Dutton Ranch, but the latter has been met with a much more welcoming reception than the former. Still, both shows return long-time Yellowstone stars like Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton and Cole Hauser as Rip Wheeler, and both have been picked up for new seasons. Sheridan fans were also treated to some good news last week when it was announced that his black ops spy thriller, Lioness, will officially return to streaming this August. The same can’t be said for Landman, which likely won’t air until sometime in 2027.

While Sheridan has become known by most fans these days for his work with the Yellowstone universe and other shows like Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown, he began his career with some of the greatest neo-Western thrillers to ever hit the big screen. His debut screenplay came all the way back in 2015 with Sicario, which is still hailed as some of his finest work even to this day. The film stars Josh Brolin and Emily Blunt, and it made quick work of a $30 million budget, grossing nearly $85 million at the global box office. 11 years after Sicario first hit theaters, the film is now available to stream on Hulu for all subscribers, where it has had several stints in the top 10. It’s also a VOD smash on platforms such as Prime Video and Apple TV, where it can be rented for as low as $2.99.

What Is ‘Sicario’ About?

The official synopsis for Sicario, which holds scores of 91% from critics and 85% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, reads as follows:

“When idealistic FBI agent Kate Macer uncovers a cartel massacre in Arizona, she’s recruited into a shadowy government task force. Thrust into the lawless borderlands between the U.S. and Mexico, she must navigate a world of moral compromise — where the line between justice and vengeance no longer exists.”

When it comes time to analyze Sicario’s success, it’s hard not to credit Denis Villeneuve, who was the perfect choice to direct Sheridan’s neo-Western script. Villeneuve has also gone on to direct near-perfect sci-fi epics like Arrival and Dune: Part Two, and he’s been tasked with directing the next James Bond movie.

Check out Sicario on Hulu in America, and stay tuned to Collider for more streaming updates and coverage of Taylor Sheridan’s future projects.

The current box office landscape might be obsessed with horror — quite literally, in the case of Curry Barker‘s record-breaking new hit — but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for other genres to reach success. The cozy Sheep Detectives continues to prove a popular hit for families, Masters of the Universe is a wonderfully nostalgic option for those seeking a summer blockbuster, and Antoine Fuqua’s musical biopic, Michael, edges closer to the $900 million mark.

However, the success of some genres seems not to be rubbing off on sci-fi, with the latest entry in the grandest sci-fi franchise of them all, Pedro Pascal‘s The Mandalorian and Grogu, in box office freefall, having dropped to sixth place in the domestic charts on just its third weekend, earning less than 1/8 of its opening haul. Thankfully, as one sci-fi effort fails to impress, another has just reached its biggest milestone yet.

At the time of writing, the video game adaptation sequel The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has officially crossed the billion-dollar mark at the box office. Ten weekends into its theatrical run and about to bow out for good, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has finally become the first billion-dollar movie of 2026. This couldn’t come at a better time for the movie, with a selection of blockbuster names on their way this summer, including Christopher Nolan‘s ambitious epic The Odyssey, Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fifth installment in the beloved Toy Story franchise, the high-flying Supergirl, and much more.

‘The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’ Is Now a Hit at Home

Although it is still just about clinging to box office relevance, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has successfully transitioned into being a hit at home. In the digital charts, via Amazon, the video game adaptation sequel is currently the second-most-watched movie, outperforming the likes of In the Grey, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, Sydney Sweeney’s psychological thriller The Housemaid, the horror gem Hokum, and more. However, it is one of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie‘s biggest box office rivals that has stolen the top spot on the Amazon charts, with Ryan Gosling‘s sci-fi masterpiece Project Hail Mary currently at #1.

You can rent or purchase The Super Mario Galaxy Movie now. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for the latest box office updates.

Tyra Banks just took serving to a whole NEW level. The model and producer has reportedly filed a lawsuit against Netflix following her participation in their ‘Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model’ docuseries.

Tyra Banks Comes For Netflix After ‘ANTM’ Docuseries Release

According to TMZ, Tyra Banks is suing Netflix for defamation. She filed the documents on Saturday, June 13, and alleges that Netflix used only 16 minutes of her over three-hour interview and manipulated the footage to push a false, defamatory narrative. PEOPLE reports that she is now seeking a jury trial to determine the amount of damages she should receive.

“Tyra Banks participated in the Netflix documentary series America’s Next Top Model (‘ANTM’) because she believed viewers deserved a candid conversation about the show’s legacy—its successes and its shortcomings,” the lawsuit reportedly states. “There are aspects of the show for which Ms. Banks takes accountability and she wanted ANTM viewers to hear that from her directly.”

In the suit, Banks also reportedly calls out two partially true statements from Mar Loushy, one of the directors and executive producers of the series. She says Loushy claimed she would have the “opportunity to go really deep into the debates” about ‘ANTM’ and “to share her side of the story.” In another interview, Loushy added, “Ms. Banks was ready to speak, and I think that a lot of her answers were very honest. And it’s all in the show, really.” However, ‘Reality Check’ director Kay Wicker told TheGrio that the documentary was going to happen whether Tyra participated or not.

More About The ‘America’s Next Top Model’ Documentary

The ‘America’s Next Top Model’ documentary took over Netflix when it dropped in February, giving viewers the opportunity to revisit the early days of the show. The series also unpacked topics like cycle 2 contestant Shandi Sullivan’s sexual assault. Sullivan recalled the moment when the models were in Italy and male models came over their house. She consumed alcohol before getting in bed with one of the men, despite having a boyfriend back at home at the time. Sullivan said she blacked out during the incident and later accused the production team of framing it as a cheating scandal instead of assault. When asked about the situation in ‘Reality Check,’ Tyra said she had no involvement in production or the editing of storylines.
