General Hospital 2-Week Spoilers for July 13 – 24, 2026 stun with Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) getting very suspicious and Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) hunting for something that he really needs before time runs out on him.

The two weeks from July 13th through the 24th bring lots of spoilers including the last day of July sweeps which is Monday the 20th. And we’ve got a new face coming to Port Charles, a return, lingering questions, and a big secret spilled.

General Hospital: The 16,000th Episode Milestone – July 13th Through 17th

On Monday, July 13th, we have got GH hitting an amazing milestone with its 16,000th episode. General Hospital debuted as a 30-minute soap back on April 1st, 1963. It used to air in black and white, and it didn’t start airing in full color until 1967.

We also have Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) popping back up on Monday, and very soon he will be on a flight back to Port Charles. But when we first get a glimpse of him, it looks like Jason is still in a cell on lockdown at the WSB Black Site Prison in Indonesia. But since Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) negotiated his release with Z (John Oliver), they are going to let him go. But Jason looks not only pretty beat up.

But also pretty beat down. Also on Monday, Dean Geyer debuts as Dr. Tristan Roberts, who’s going to get into it with Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) soon. He’s a top surgeon looking for a fresh start in Port Charles, but some people that he knows from his past are in town that may interfere with that.

GH: Chase & BLQ Struggle

Harrisson Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) have a conversation that picks back up from Friday after she confessed to framing Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen). And Brook Lynn asks Chase if she has pushed him towards Willow. I suspect that Chase is going to demand that Brook Lynn finds a way to undo what she did.

Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) asks Britt what she’s going to do with her fresh start. She will be back up working at General Hospital soon and she’s going to be bickering with the new doctor, bonding with Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson), and dealing with drama with Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst). Britt also makes an accusation against somebody on Monday. We’ll see who it is, but I know Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) is not happy to see Britt back in Port Charles.

General Hospital Spoilers: Tracy Flips on Laura

Also, Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) horrifies Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot), who asked Laura if she has lost her mind. And with Elizabeth telling somebody it’s brilliant that they are filling the open seat on the hospital board, I assume that Laura is going to put Willow on the GH board, which will definitely make Tracy lose her entire mind.

Also, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Valentin continue catching up from Friday. So, we’re going to have them talking about Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke), and Valentin’s going to discuss the pardon he got from the WSB. And he tells Anna how worried he was about her. And she tells Valentin she was worried about herself, too. Anna claims she’s fine now. They have a hug. And we have her asking somebody how they know that. So, it could be something in her conversation with Valentin that surprises Anna or this could be a conversation with Ghost Peter August (Wes Ramsey) in her head after Valentin leaves her apartment.

Carly is surprised and we also have her in a conversation with Jack on Monday. So, that may be who stuns her. He tells Carly that something is always a mistake. And I think that something is trusting Valentin. But Carly is still determined to get revenge on Jack. So I am wondering if she’s going to lash out.

General Hospital Spoilers: Jason Explains Himself

On Tuesday, July 14th, we’ve got Jason explaining his choices. I wonder if he’s telling Danny Morgan (Asher Jared Antonyzyn) why he confessed to shooting Ross Cullum to protect Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr). I’m betting Jason might be a little ticked off to find out Danny told Brennan that Rocco shot Cullum. We’re also gonna see Jason explaining his plans for the future, which includes some big life changes.

We also have Liz standing her ground. This week, Elizabeth seems to be on edge while she is chatting with Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna). So, Liz may be sharing her suspicions, and I can see her telling Dante about Jack and Drew’s strokes and just the strange circumstances.

We have Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) failing at something on Tuesday. This week she shows up at Portia Robinson’s (Brook Kerr) house and things look tense and I can totally see Jordan going to ask Portia to get Isaiah to drop the charges and show Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) mercy as father of her unborn child. But with Curtis continuing to target and harass Isaiah, why would Portia ever say yes?

Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) finds out something shocking and it may be that Willow is responsible for Drew being locked in. Valentin is suspicious and this may be his spidey senses tingling about Anna. With Peter in her head, she’s not acting quite like herself and Valentin may sense what is off there.

GH: Anna Desperate for Answers

On Wednesday, July 15th, Anna’s looking for answers. Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) helped her by sketching the room below Wyndemere and telling Anna that she knows she was held on Spoon Island. Meanwhile, Josslyn unpacks a secret. I suspect that she is going to tell Liesl the truth that Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) died a hero.

Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) and Brennan plan their next steps. They got to go out to Wyndemere to try and find that black box that Ross Cullum stole. General Hospital summer spoilers confirm that Jack finds it. However, it might be too late to stop Drew by that point.

Curtis is showing gratitude and this may be to Jordan for going to Portia to advocate for him. And Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) and Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) get amazing news and I expect it is about the showcase that Brook Lynn is setting up for them.

General Hospital Spoilers: Liesl Flies Off the Handle

On Thursday, July 16th, Emma Scorpio Drake (Brayden Bruner) and Gio talk about their future and Isaiah interrupts Curtis and Portia. I’m sure Curtis is going to continue his hostility. And I do wonder if Isaiah’s letting him know about the civil suit.

Liesl is raging. She’s furious about Cassius getting the villain edit while Cullum is hailed a hero. We also have Anna grilling Britt and I’m sure it’s all about Cullum and Jens Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and Chase and Cesar Faison’s (Anders Hove) final project. Also this week, Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) comes to see Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) at the stable.

So, Molly may tell him that she’s going to cancel her book tour because of an opportunity at work. We know that Cody is signing up for a thankless task soon. And my guess is that it has something to do with his nephew James West (Gary James Fuller), who is devastated about his dad and still has no idea that Cassius was pretending to be Nathan West (Ryan Paevey).

GH Spoilers: Carly Draws the Line

On Friday, July 17th, Carly draws a hard line with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). I’m sure it’s about Valentin. And we know that Sonny is soon going to enlist Brick to help split them up. I’m sure he’ll be happy to do it because he’s got a crush on Carly. Valentin is clear on what he feels and what he wants. Anna is his past. Carly is his future. And I’m sure Valentin is going to make that very clear to his new lady love.

We also have Lulu warning Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean Parsons) and it may be about Ava Jerome (Maura West) and Josslyn and Trina do some catching up. Josslyn has got to tell her bestie that she is WSB. Plus, Emma is bothered by the reveal of Josslyn’s status as an agent. Nina opens up to Brennan. She’s worried about Willow and knows that their time is running out.

General Hospital: Curtis’s Trial and Major Reckoning – July 20th Through 24th

Then the week of July 20th through the 24th, we are looking at Curtis’ trial kicking off very soon. And Portia is going to go into labor while she is on the witness stand, forcing Isaiah and Curtis to set their animosity aside, at least in the short run. Britt is at complete and total rock bottom when Jason returns to Port Charles, and he may not make things easier on Britt. Jason is readjusting to life in Port Charles and is taking things in a whole new direction that may not include her.

Carly and Valentin are all in, but they’re going to have many haters, chiefly Sonny and Brennan. And Nina gets closer and they may get romantic while they are trying to help Willow. Drew’s recovery begins and he’s got revenge on his mind but may not get what he wants. Anna struggles with ghost Peter who wants her to do bad things. Kelly Krueger debuts soon as Serena Baldwin, who is back to help Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) fight battles over Deception. And Tracy faces off soon with Lucy over the Brook Lynn stock stuff.

Plus, Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) and Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennessy) are about to hire another lawyer. Ric’s already in town, and Martin Gray (Michael E. Knight) just came back, and I think either of them would be a fun addition to the firm.

If you’re looking for the home of NCIS, Paramount+ seems like the obvious destination. The flagship series is there; so are NCIS: Sydney, NCIS: Origins, NCIS: Hawaiʻi, and other spin-offs of the show. It’s the streaming home for one of television’s biggest procedural franchises, but when you look for NCIS: Los Angeles,it’s nowhere to be found.

Surely there must be licensing reasons behind the omission, as older syndication agreements might have kept the series from joining the rest of the franchise on Paramount+ in the United States, which would explain its absence. It doesn’t make the decision any less frustrating, especially when the missing show isn’t some forgotten short-lived experiment. NCIS: Los Angeles ran for 14 seasons, launched the franchise’s expansion beyond Washington, D.C., and became one of its defining entries. If Paramount+ wants to be the definitive destination for NCIS, leaving out its first spin-off leaves a hole that’s impossible to ignore.

NCIS: Los Angeles Is One of the Franchise’s Most Important Series

It’s easy to forget just how much NCIS: Los Angeles changed the trajectory of the franchise. Before it premiered in 2009, NCIS was simply a successful procedural. After it succeeded, it became proof that the formula could work almost anywhere. NCIS: LA became one of CBS’ longest-running dramas in its own right, lasting from 2009 through 2023 while introducing characters who became just as recognizable as many from the flagship series. G. Callen (Chris O’Donnell), Sam Hanna (LL Cool J), Hetty Lange (Linda Hunt), Kensi Blye (Daniela Ruah), Marty Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen), Nell Jones (Renée Felice Smith), and Eric Beale (Barrett Foa) were the reasons to tune in every week.

Its importance only grew as the franchise expanded. NCIS: Los Angeles crossed over with the original series, NCIS: Hawaiʻi, Hawaii Five-0, and even revisited the world of JAG, which helped turn separate procedurals into a shared television universe years before interconnected franchises became standard across Hollywood. Its absence on Paramount+ hinders the hopes of anyone wishing to watch the franchise chronologically — or simply experience its biggest crossover events without gaps.

The Characters Are Why Fans Keep Coming Back

Like every procedural, NCIS: Los Angeles solved a new case nearly every week. Unlike many procedurals, those investigations were rarely the biggest draw. The real appeal was always the Office of Special Projects itself. Callen and Sam anchored the series with a partnership built on trust, dry humor, and years of shared history, while Hetty managed to be equal parts mentor, spymaster, and emotional center of the team, and Kensi and Deeks evolved from reluctant partners into one of television’s most satisfying slow-burn romances without losing the playful chemistry that made them work in the first place. Even as cast members came and went, the show’s sense of family never disappeared.

Instead of resetting after every episode, relationships changed, characters grew older, personal storylines carried real weight, and victories and losses lingered instead of disappearing once the credits rolled. Spend a few minutes browsing fan discussions, and the same themes surface again and again. People recommend sticking with the series for its team dynamic. They remember Deeks’ arrival as the point where everything clicked; they revisit the show for the banter as much as the explosions. Even viewers who ultimately preferred the original NCIS often point to Los Angeles as the franchise’s strongest ensemble.

No Other ‘NCIS’ Series Found Its Own Identity Quite Like This One

Many spin-offs spend years trying to escape comparisons to the show that spawned them. NCIS: Los Angeles accomplished that surprisingly quickly. Its undercover missions gave episodes a more espionage-driven feel than the flagship’s traditional investigations. Action sequences were bigger, the pace was faster, and the stakes frequently went well beyond naval offenses to include international conspiracies and counterterrorism ventures. Equally important, the show fully used the city of Los Angeles rather than using it only as a setting.

The combination of the Spanish-style headquarters, the coastal locations, the flashy cars, and sunny cinematography gave NCIS: Los Angeles its own unique visual presence. Rather than looking like a copy of the original concept, it was more than that and made no apologies, enabling the show not only to attract an audience but also to attract those who were not merely watching the franchise. Many fans really liked the series because it incorporated much more humor and action while maintaining the original’s successful format.

Paramount+ has assembled nearly every chapter of the NCIS universe under one roof, but the collection is considerably incomplete. Until NCIS: Los Angeles is included in full, the service isn’t quite offering the definitive NCIS experience it’s positioned to provide. For longtime fans, that’s disappointing; for newcomers hoping to discover one of the franchise’s very best series, it’s an even bigger missed opportunity.

“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum Crystal Kung Minkoff just made a shocking claim about her former co-star’s husband. During an episode of her “Humble Brag” podcast, Minkoff revealed she’s always been “uncomfortable” around former NFL star Marcellus Wiley, who appeared on season 13 of the hit Bravo reality series alongside his estranged wife, Annemarie Wiley. Minkoff’s claims come a week after Florida police officers arrested the retired Buffalo Bills player for alleged domestic battery.

On the Monday, July 13 episode of “Humble Brag,” Minkoff, wife of “The Lion King” director Rob Minkoff, said she pleaded with Bravo producers and security to keep Marcellus, 51, off the “RHOBH” season 13 reunion set, claiming she’s always felt uneasy around him.

“At my last reunion — in which it was her first season and only season — I had made sure to request that he was not allowed to be there,” Minkoff shared, adding that she spoke with producers to ensure her request would be honored. “I was going to insist, but apparently they already asked him not to come,” she added.

Minkoff told her co-host, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” veteran Cynthia Bailey, that she knew things were going to get heated between her and Annemarie during the intense sit-down gathering, and she didn’t want Marcellus present because he had allegedly “lied” about her on social media.

“We were heading into a reunion in which she and I were going to be combative,” she said. “I can personally say that I have always been uncomfortable, but I feel very sad for the children.”

Florida Police Arrest Marcellus Wiley During 4th Of July Weekend After Allegedly Threatening To Kill His Estranged Wife

According to a previous report from The Blast, Orlando police arrested Marcellus during the 4th of July weekend after they were called to his hotel room after an alleged altercation with his estranged wife, Annemarie.

In the police report, Annemarie claimed that Marcellus had an “unreported history of violence towards her,” and this time, things went too far. She alleged that during their most recent altercation, Marcellus poked her in the cheek and threatened to kill her.

He was arrested and spent the rest of the weekend in jail before being released on a $1,000 bond.

Annemarie Wiley Filed For Divorce From Her Estranged Husband Following His Arrest On Alleged Domestic Battery Charges

According to Us Weekly, Annemarie filed for divorce from Marcellus on Monday, July 6, 2026. She cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their separation.

In the filing, the former “Real Housewives” star requested physical sole custody of their minor children and no visitation. She also asked the court to grant her spousal support.

Annemarie made horrifying allegations against Marcellus in the court documents. In one section of the filing, Annemarie accused Marcellus of “continuing and escalating pattern of physical violence, sexual abuse, verbal and emotional abuse, financial control and intimidation, much of which our children have witnessed.”

Marcellus Wiley Sued For $500,000

Amid his family battles, Marcellus and his “Dat Due Entertainment” company were sued by Preferred Bank after the financial institution accused him of taking out a $500,000 loan he never repaid. The bank claimed it had given the former NFL star ample opportunities to begin repaying the loan; however, he allegedly ignored its requests, leaving the business with no choice but to take him to court.

Marcellus Releases A Statement Following Annemarie’s Allegations Of Physical And Sexual Abuse

Divorce Response:

I love my children with everything I am. My highest priority has always been protecting them and preserving the relationship they have with both of their parents. Because of the public allegations made against me by Annemarie, I have been forced to respond with…

— Marcellus Wiley (@marcelluswiley) July 7, 2026

Marcellus released a lengthy statement on July 7 about the ongoing drama and addressed the “lies” his estranged wife told. Marcellus claimed that he had been a victim of Annemarie’s alleged falsehoods for some time before accusing her of heinous acts, such as practicing voodoo on his family and fans of “RHOBH.”

“I never wanted my family’s issues and struggles to become public for any reason, including divorce leverage. But I unfortunately knew this day was inevitable. I was willing to endure anything—even hell itself—if it meant being with my children every single day. I am their hero, and now I am fighting to make sure the positive and real image they know of me is the one that endures,” he added in his statement.

Marcellus finished by saying he would address Annemarie’s remaining claims through the proper channels, adding that his mind was focused on protecting his children and his integrity.

Bold and the Beautiful 2-Week Spoilers for July 13 – 24, 2026 kick off with Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) working to get what she wants, but will be accused of manipulating someone close to her. And we are also going to see Eric Forrester (John McCook) making threats which seem unwarranted.

So, the two weeks of July 13th through the 24th also include the final day of July sweeps, which is Monday the 20th. We’ll have some talk about the Monaco location scenes, including an air date of when you can expect to see them.

Bold and the Beautiful: Will’s Heartbreak and Sheila’s Manipulation – July 13th Through 17th

Monday, July 13th, we’ve got Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) going to Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) looking for support from his dad. He recently told Will to avoid using his fist, but Bill also told Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) that he was proud of Will and that Ridge Jr. needs to toughen up. I think Bill’s going to tell Will again that he did nothing wrong and Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) is making way too much of all of this.

I hope that Bill encourages Will to find another lucky LA lady to pursue. And once Bill and Katie Logan (Heather Tom) hear that Dylan (Sydney Bullock) is coming back around, they may push Will towards Dylan with both hands to make sure he’s not back with a Forrester who will demand to know Logan company secrets anytime she wants them.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Sheila Pleads with Finn

Carrying over from Friday’s episode, Sheila Carter keeps working on Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) for another chance. He believes that Sheila really has changed and he forgives her for the shooting. And of course, that means the world to her. And Finn also called her mom, which thrilled Sheila, and she continues to ask for a chance to talk to Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and present her case. But Finn may think that he’s the better person to have that conversation.

Then on Tuesday, July 14th, this is the day we’re going to begin hearing the Forresters talking about the trip to Monaco, which kicks off at the end of the month. And I will have an air date for you later in the video. Daphne Rose Walton (Murielle Hilaire) meets with Dr. Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) at the hospital to get some test results. Daphne got checked out after months of negative pregnancy tests and her and Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) trying really hard to make a baby. So, Steffy’s there with her bestie, which is really good because Daphne’s about to get very bad news.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: RJ’s in Electra’s Ear & Jessica Encourages Dylan

Also this week, R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) blathers to a very sad Electra in the Forrester Creations design office. And I’m sure R.J. is going to reiterate what Ridge said about Electra choosing sides and staying away from Will because you know he’s so dangerous which is utter nonsense. I think Ridge Jr. is going to repeat all of Ridge Senior’s nonsense that he was saying to Electra this past week.

Jessica is up at Bikini Bar while Dylan is tending bar and Jessica is encouraging Dylan to go for it. Make a move. I think word is spread about Electra and Will’s split. So Jessica might think this is Dylan’s big chance.

On Wednesday, July 15th, Will is eaten up with regret for keeping things from Electra, which is straight ridiculous. Will did nothing wrong. Electra was the one in the wrong asking nosy questions about Logan trade secrets and absolutely wrong to blame Will for staying loyal to his job and parents, especially because it’s pretty clear that Electra would have blabbed to the Forresters had she known. S

Steffy is there for Daphne. So, this is after the meeting with Dr. Finn who gives Daphne terrible news. And if you remember, Steffy went the adoption route before, you know, when she accidentally bought Hope’s baby Beth Spencer (Jordan Ariza). So, that is a cautionary tale, but Steffy was excited to adopt at the time and might talk to her about the process.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: FC in Trouble & Darter Marriage Tested

On Thursday, July 16th, Ridge talks to Eric about rescheduling the launch of the new couture line. Ridge really wants the attention on Forrester and off of Logan. I do wonder if they’re going to plan to launch Eric’s couture line in Monaco during the shoot there.

That would definitely be a splashy place to do Eric’s launch and out of Katie and Bill’s reach because if Eric’s launch doesn’t go well, Forrester Creations could be in a tight spot because they overspent on the line as Carter warned. So, basically, they spent too much trying to compete with Logan. Then they shut down their jewelry line because of Logan. And then they put off Eric’s launch because of Logan. The Forresters need to get a grip. Logan is living rent-free in their heads at this point.

Carter and Daphne’s marriage is tested. So Steffy was there to support Daphne and Finn shows up for part of their meeting with his mom, Dr. Finn. But then Daphne’s got to tell Carter what is going on. And I’m sure he’s going to tell Daphne they can look at other options to start a family like adoption or surrogacy.

Will goes to see Electra to plead with her to move back in. And Will wants her to not break up with him. But I’m expecting R.J. to butt in about how Will shouldn’t be there. You know, like how Ridge shouldn’t be at Logan hitting Bill and Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) shouldn’t be at Logan breaking things and laying hands on her sister and R.J. may run and tell Eric that Will is in the building.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Steffy & Finn Reach a Crossroads

On Friday, July 17th, Steffy and Finn are at a crossroads in their marriage. Finn tells Steffy this week that his mom, Sheila, came to see him. And Finn thinks it’s time they let Sheila into their lives. And I think we all know what Steffy’s going to say to that. Eric barks at Will to stay away from the Forresters. So, looks like Eric finds out that Will is in the building because he’s up there pleading his case to pouty, over dramatic Electra. And I just personally think Will needs to forget her and get with Dylan.

So, after Electra refuses to reconcile and Eric is awful to him, Will’s going to go over to Bikini Bar for a drink and he is swarmed by women eager to distract him from Electra. But Dylan is there bartending and lends him a sympathetic ear. And that leads to Will and Dylan winding up back at his place talking more. Dylan promises Will more smiles and fun in his future. And he talks about being judged because of his last name, Spencer. Just because of his dad’s reputation on Bold and the Beautiful.

But Dylan says not everybody sees him that way. And Will says Electra didn’t see him that way. And he blathers about their breakup. Will says he knows that Dylan is trying to cheer him up, but he misses Electra so gosh darn much. Dylan is flirting like crazy. They talk about where she’s living now. And she tells Will if she ever came back to the beach house, she wouldn’t be living above the garage anymore. Sounds pretty seductive.

Bold and the Beautiful: Monaco Launches and Family Turmoil – July 20th Through 24th

The week of July 20th through the 24th, we should be seeing a date for Eric Forrester’s couture launch, which is coming soon. But I’m guessing it’s not going to go smoothly and it’s not going to be exactly what the Forresters need it to be. And it could be that Bill and Katie do something to steal a little bit of the limelight. Or it could be that the fashion press just hasn’t moved on from Hope for the Future.

We’ll see more drama between Finn and Steffy, who is of course outraged that Sheila wants back in their lives. Finn seems open to it, and Steffy thinks that Sheila is manipulating her son. Steffy is going to give an ultimatum, and I’m sure that Finn is going to have to cave and at least pay lip service to it.

Things are going to change in Monaco, though. The Forresters are going to continue planning the Monaco trip, but the location shoot itself. Those scenes won’t start airing until Wednesday, July 29th. Also, Will’s heartbreak continues, and Dylan is sticking close to him, but Electra may rage at Dylan about that. A whole sisters over misters thing. R.J. stays close by Electra to make sure that Will stays out of her life. And of course, to make his own play for Electra again.

Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) and Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) consider the future, which is wide open thanks to Sheila signing those divorce papers, and Daphne and Carter decide next steps after her devastating diagnosis from Dr. Li. Daphne just needs to decide where they go from here and what this is going to do about their big family plans. Brooke should be back from the wellness center soon and we’ll see if she’s more chill. I kind of doubt that a massage and some yoga are going to make her forget what Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Katie did behind her back.

Jennifer Lopez is reportedly finally close to selling her sprawling Beverly Hills estate after nearly two years on the market, marking another major step forward following her divorce from Ben Affleck.

The luxury property, which recently entered escrow, has undergone multiple price reductions amid a challenging high-end real estate market.

While the sale is expected to come at a financial cost, it represents a fresh start for Jennifer Lopez, who has recently spoken about embracing change and new beginnings after life’s setbacks.

Jennifer Lopez appears to be one step closer to parting ways with her lavish Beverly Hills estate after a lengthy and challenging sales process.

Her real estate representatives told the New York Post that the property is currently in escrow, meaning an offer has been accepted, and the transaction is moving toward completion.

While the identity of the buyer remains confidential, the purchaser is reportedly a prominent figure in the technology and finance sectors whose name would be widely recognized.

The pending sale comes after nearly two years on the market, multiple price reductions, and the “Maid in Manhattan” star’s highly publicized split from Ben Affleck. Originally listed for $68 million, the estate’s asking price eventually dropped to $50 million. The final sale price has not been disclosed.

Lopez and Affleck purchased the sprawling residence in 2023 for approximately $60.9 million and invested additional funds into upgrades and renovations. Following the couple’s divorce, finalized in early 2025, ownership of the property was transferred solely to Lopez.

The Singer’s Mansion Sale Could Trigger Millions In Taxes And Commissions

Despite finding a buyer, the transaction is unlikely to be a financial win for the singer and actress.

In addition to selling the property for less than its original listing price, Lopez is expected to face millions of dollars in costs associated with the sale, including real estate commissions and Los Angeles’ luxury property transfer tax.

The challenges of selling high-end homes in the area have also worked against her. Luxury properties across the market have been taking longer to move, with many sellers forced to slash their asking prices before attracting serious buyers.

Adding to the cost, Lopez’s property falls within Los Angeles city limits, making it subject to the city’s mansion tax.

Had the estate been located just a mile farther south within Beverly Hills, she would have avoided the tax and paid only a fraction of the associated fees. She is also expected to pay a sizable commission to her real estate agents, which could amount to roughly $2.5 million based on a standard commission rate.

One expense she won’t have to worry about is outstanding property taxes. Public records indicate that her annual property tax bill of approximately $378,000 has been fully paid.

Inside Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck’s $50 Million Beverly Hills Estate

The estate itself is designed on a grand scale. Spanning roughly 46,000 square feet on more than five acres, the residence features 12 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms, along with expansive entertainment spaces and resort-style amenities.

Visitors are welcomed through a dramatic entrance highlighted by soaring ceilings and a striking floating staircase. The home also includes formal entertaining areas, a large dining room, a private theater with seating for up to 100 guests, and numerous luxury finishes throughout.

Personal touches from Lopez are evident across the property, including a dedicated glam room equipped for professional hair and makeup preparation, a dance rehearsal space, and a recording studio.

The home also houses extensive wardrobe and shoe storage designed to accommodate a celebrity lifestyle.

Ben Affleck Gifted His Ex-Wife His Shares In The Property

Like Lopez, Affleck also had his interests reflected in certain areas of their marital mansion, particularly within a massive indoor sports complex featuring facilities for basketball, pickleball, and boxing.

Outside, the property offers extensive parking accommodations, including a large garage and motor court capable of handling dozens of vehicles.

A resort-style infinity-edge pool overlooks the surrounding canyon landscape, while guest accommodations, private cabanas, and landscaped outdoor spaces add to the estate’s appeal.

While the pair initially tried to sell off the home as joint owners, Affleck recently shocked many when he gifted Lopez his share of the property, making her the sole owner.

Reports have since claimed that it was the actor’s way of completely cutting ties with his ex-wife after their brief marriage.

Jennifer Lopez Shares Her Honest Take On Heartbreak And Moving On

5

As Lopez prepares to move on from the property, she has also spoken openly about moving forward in other areas of her life. Having navigated several highly publicized relationships, including romances with Affleck and Alex Rodriguez, she has developed a different perspective on heartbreak and personal growth.

Speaking during an appearance on Kareem Rahma’s “Subway Takes,” Lopez explained that she does not view the end of a relationship as a failure.

“Breakups are not a failure. I honestly feel like it’s a launchpad into your next best self,” Lopez said, suggesting that people should embrace the chance to move forward and evolve after a relationship ends. She even joked that former couples should celebrate the occasion with a party.

At the same time, Lopez emphasized the importance of accountability, arguing that there is a clear difference between a relationship ending naturally and repeatedly hurting others. As she bluntly put it, “If you go around your life and you’re breaking hearts, let’s say, you’re the loser.”

Tributes continue to pour in following the sudden death of Sam Neill, with “Jurassic Park” co-star Laura Dern offering an emotional reflection on the friendship they built over decades both on and off screen. While audiences around the world knew Neill as paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant and Dern as Dr. Ellie Sattler, the pair’s connection extended far beyond the blockbuster franchise that made them household names.

In one of the most heartfelt tributes shared since Neill’s passing, Dern remembered the actor not simply as a co-star but as one of her closest lifelong friends. Her comments arrived as fans continue processing the shock of Sam Neill’s death at age 78, just months after the actor publicly revealed he was cancer-free and looking forward to future projects.

5

Dern reflected on Neill’s character, humor, and unwavering loyalty in a statement released following news of his death. “Sam was my beloved lifetime friend,” she told PEOPLE. “He showed me the depths of loyalty, protectiveness and love always with the driest of wit.”

She continued by describing Neill as “a true and noble gentleman” and paid tribute to the actor who famously portrayed her on-screen love interest in the “Jurassic Park” franchise. “He was a true and noble gentleman, wrapped up in my dream leading man. I will love you forever, Dr. Alan Grant.”

Neill Had Recently Celebrated A Major Health Milestone

The outpouring of grief has been intensified by the fact that Neill had recently shared encouraging news about his health. Earlier this year, the actor revealed that scans showed no evidence of cancer following years of treatment for a rare form of blood cancer.

During an interview with Australia’s Channel Seven, Neill explained that traditional chemotherapy had eventually stopped working, leaving him facing an uncertain future. “I was at a loss and it looked like I was on the way out,” he recalled.

A breakthrough came through CAR T-cell therapy, an advanced treatment that genetically modifies a patient’s own immune cells to target cancer. After undergoing the procedure, Neill revealed that doctors could no longer detect cancer in his body. “I’ve just had a scan just now and there is no cancer in my body,” he said. “That’s an extraordinary thing.”

The Actor Was Looking Ahead To The Future

Perhaps the most heartbreaking aspect of Neill’s final interviews was how optimistic he appeared about what came next.

After learning he was cancer-free, the actor spoke openly about wanting to return to work and continue pursuing projects he loved. “It’s time I did another movie,” he said. The comments echoed sentiments he had previously shared while discussing his illness. Although Neill repeatedly said he was not afraid of death, he admitted he still hoped for many more years with his family.

Reflecting on his future, he spoke about wanting to watch his grandchildren grow up and see the vineyards, olive trees, and gardens he had spent years cultivating continue to mature. “I’d really like another decade or two,” he said.

Neill’s family confirmed his death Monday in a statement shared on Instagram. “It is with immense sadness that the whānau of Sam Neill share the news of his passing on Monday 13th July, in Sydney, Australia,” the statement read.

The family described his death as “sudden and unexpected” and said he was surrounded by loved ones in his final moments. “More details will be shared later, but for now, on behalf of the family, we ask that you respect their privacy as they navigate this immeasurable loss,” they added.

They also noted that he remained cancer-free at the time of his passing and thanked medical staff for their care.

Just weeks before his death, Neill was seen enjoying a night out at the 2026 Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Hall of Fame Awards in Sydney. The beloved actor appeared in a smiling selfie shared to Instagram on June 11 alongside Australian singer and actress Kate Ceberano, who was being honored during the ceremony.

Neill also documented parts of the evening on social media, sharing behind-the-scenes photos with Australian music duo Vika and Linda Bull, New Zealand singer-songwriter Jenny Morris, and former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.

This week, the new Legally Blonde prequel series Elle is once again the number one show on Prime Video. Created by Laura Kittrell and starring Lexi Minetree as Elle Woods, the series takes audiences back to the 1990s, following Elle as she goes through her teen years in Seattle, six years before her arrival at Harvard Law School. Executive produced by Reese Witherspoon, the show has proven quite popular with audiences, and it’s a must-watch for fans of the iconic film series. However, in case that’s not your cup of tea, there are still plenty of other options to explore on the streaming service. Here’s a look at three great shows that we think you should binge on Prime Video this week.

‘Everybody Hates Chris’ (2005–2009)

A semi-autobiographical self-parody sitcom, Everybody Hates Chris was created by Chris Rock and Ali LeRoi, with Rock developing, writing, producing, and narrating the show. Inspired by his teen years growing up in Bedford–Stuyvesant in Brooklyn, New York City, the show follows a young Chris Rock (Tyler James Williams) and his family as they navigate life in the ’80s. Besides Williams, the series also stars Terry Crews, Tichina Arnold, Tequan Richmond, Imani Hakim, and Vincent Martella in notable roles.

When it first premiered in 2005, Everybody Hates Chris was widely acclaimed by both critics and viewers, and it went on to have four successful seasons in total, winning several accolades. Praised for its writing, direction, comedy, and performances, the series is a ridiculously funny coming-of-age sitcom that’s a must-watch for fans of Chris Rock’s work. It’s also a great nostalgic look back at 1980s New York, bringing out the iconic flavor and styles of the time (ironically, the real Chris Rock grew up in the ’70s, not the ’80s).

2

‘Bait’ (2026)

A six-part limited series, Bait was created by Riz Ahmed, who also stars in the lead role as a British-Pakistani actor who’s in the running to play the next James Bond. The role of a lifetime, it looks like the moment of his big break, but the actor soon faces intense backlash from both strangers and his own family. Besides Ahmed, the series also features Guz Khan, Aasiya Shah, Sheeba Chaddha, Sajid Hasan, Ritu Arya, Weruche Opia, Maxine Peake, Rafe Spall, Soni Razdan, Himesh Patel, Sian Clifford, Patrick Stewart, and more.

Riz Ahmed has played some truly intense dramatic roles over the years, but his comedic and highly meta turn in Bait is arguably one of his best performances yet. The series premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, where it was well-received by critics, and it went on to earn universal acclaim for its writing and performances. Taking a surreal yet insightful approach to its subject matter, Bait is a lot of fun and quite intelligent, making it one of the best shows of 2026 so far.

‘With Love’ (2021–2023)

Created by Gloria Calderón Kellett, With Love is a romantic comedy-drama show that revolves around siblings Lily and Jorge Diaz, played by Emeraude Toubia and Mark Indelicato, respectively. Set over the course of a year, the show follows the Diaz siblings as they deal with love, life, and family during the holidays. The series also features Isis King, Vincent Rodriguez III, Rome Flynn, Desmond Chiam, Benito Martinez, Constance Marie, and Todd Grinnell in supporting roles.

With Love is an underrated show that isn’t very widely discussed, even among Prime Video subscribers, but it was quite successful when it first premiered in 2021, earning near-perfect reviews. A heartwarming, feel-good series with relatable characters and engaging family dynamics, the show was renewed for a second season, which was also well-reviewed but flew under the radar. Canceled not long after that, With Love has become sadly forgotten these days, but it’s certainly worth revisiting for fans of warm and romantic stories.

Kaitlyn Bristowe is looking forward to the future as rumors about her relationship with Zac Clark continue to swirl.

“When I tell you, I went through a hoe phase in my 20s in Vancouver,” Kaitlyn, 41, quips in Us Weekly’s exclusive clip from this week’s episode of Amanda Hirsch’s “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast. “I was a hoe.”

Kaitlyn jokes that she “got double hoe phases” because of her time on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.

“Being in a relationship for that long sounds so nice,” Kaitlyn says, referring to podcast host Amanda, 37, having been in a relationship since her early 20s. “It’s exhausting out here.”

Kaitlyn has been linked to fellow Bachelor Nation alum Zac, 42, since January 2024, but neither of them have ever publicly confirmed that they’re together.

“Now, I’m on this third possible engagement,” Katilyn continues in the clip. “If I’m gonna finally talk about someone out loud after however long, I hope this is the person.”

Kaitlyn ended her Bachelorette season in 2015 engaged to Shawn Booth. They split three years later. She moved on with Jason Tartick, who she dated for two years before he proposed in 2021. By August 2023, they had split.

“My ego holds me back too because I’m like, ‘What if I’m just a failure again in a relationship?’” Kaitlyn says on the podcast, noting that her current relationship has allowed her to be a “better” girlfriend.

“I’ve realized a lot, over my last two [relationships],” Kaitlyn adds. “Not that I was a terrible girlfriend or fiancée.”

While neither Kaitlyn nor Zac have confirmed their relationship status, that hasn’t stopped either one of them from discussing their love lives publicly. Kaitlyn, for one, admitted in July 2024 that she wasn’t nervous before going on a date with her mystery man.

“I’m going to know right off the bat if I like him or not. The conversations [are] either going to be good or terrible,” she recalled on the “Let’s Be Honest” podcast. “I was going into it almost fed up.”

However, there was “chemistry” between them right away. While Kaitlyn said they “went through a blip,” things eventually progressed.

Some Bachelor Nation fans have also taken Kaitlyn’s April announcement that she was moving to New York City as another clue that she and Zac are together, since that’s where he lives.

“CATS OUTTA THE BAG … I’M MOVING TO NYC,” she announced at the time. “A whole new chapter is about to begin … and I want to hear your stories too.”

The full episode of “Not Skinny But Not Fat” drops Tuesday, July 14, on all podcast platforms.

Young and the Restless 2-Week Spoilers for July 13 – 24, 2026 excite with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) ready to revolt when he is forced into an untenable position that does not appeal to him at all. Plus, Jack Abbott’s (Peter Bergman) worst nightmare may not be over just yet. So, buckle up for that.

During the two weeks of July 13th through the 24th, we’re also going to get the last day of July sweeps that comes on Monday the 20th and action with Kyle Abbott’s (Michael Mealor) revenge plan is going on. Plus, Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) is ready to lash out. And Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) is worried. Let’s get started.

Young and the Restless: Jack’s Recovery and Kyle’s Revenge – July 13th Through 17th

Monday, July 13th, in his hospital room, we’ve got Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) telling Jack that she loves him and wants to be with him forever. And he wonders if he kind of deserves what Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) did because of how terribly he treated her in the past. Diane doesn’t think so. And then she heads home to get some rest. And Abigail stops by to visit her uncle Jack and gets some advice about Devon Hamilton (Bryton James). Later, Jack nods off and has nightmares about Patty stabbing him. And then he does some reminiscing about his dad, John Abbott (Jerry Douglas).

At the mansion, Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) and Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) also talk about how great of a dad he was. Then Diane arrives and gets a very warm welcome. Abby also pops in and the ladies send Jack a smiling selfie. Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) gives Kyle complete props for saving Diane’s life. And they talk about nearly losing Jack. And Billy talks about how Jack was a father figure to him because of their age gap and that he was jealous when Kyle came along and he acted out. He says sorry and then Billy warns that chasing revenge on Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) is a bad idea.

Kyle is determined to make Victor pay for bringing Patty back and her nearly killing Jack and Diane both. And Billy mentions Victor’s the reason he and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) didn’t last because the Newmans always enable Victor and let him get away with it all. Kyle wants Billy’s advice and input on his revenge plan. But Billy says he cannot get involved because of Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) and they’ve got a baby on their way. Kyle understands, but he’s not going to stop until he makes Victor pay for what he did to his parents.

Y&R Spoilers: Victor Upsets Adam

On Tuesday, July 14th, Victor gives Kyle a warning. And I wonder if he’s going to let Victor know that he is coming for him. Plus, Adam is really irritated that Victor is planning to go after Spectra because Phyllis gave Newman Media to Billy and then he integrated it into Sally’s company. Adam even reminded Victor that Sally is pregnant.

And of course, Adam doesn’t want to stress her out and cause a miscarriage, but Victor doesn’t care. So, Adam offers an alternative plan that he and Chelsea came up with. Adam is asking Victor to give them six months to put their plan into motion. And Adam says, “And then, you know, if it doesn’t work, you can do what you want.” But Victor tells Adam, “This is the offer. You can take it or leave it.”

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Sally Blasts Adam & Chelsea

On Tuesday, Sally confronts Adam and Chelsea, accusing them of sabotaging her company. Obviously, Victor has done something at that point. And I hope that Adam and Chelsea explain that it’s Victor and not them. I think it’s fine to throw him under the bus. Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) struggles with her blindness, which is her new reality. She still has bandages on both her eyes. The tumor was only on one optic nerve, so I am wondering why both eyes are still covered. I don’t understand the medical of that, but bottom line, somebody needs to give Nikki a cane before she trips and falls into something.

On Wednesday, July 15th, we’ve got Jack and Diane reunited, and it feels so good. Now, they just need to get Jack healed up so he can get out of the hospital. Also, Kyle and Diane are in Jack’s hospital room when Nikki and Victoria show up for a visit. As Nikki sits by Jack’s bedside, her eyes are still bandaged. And I wonder if he’s gonna tell Nikki that this is Victor’s fault because we know he brought Patty to Genoa City. However, we also know that Victoria can’t handle any criticism of Daddy.

That same day, Victor is hurling accusations of betrayal at Nikki. I’m guessing it’s because she went to visit Jack in the hospital. And I wonder if Nikki asks Victor questions about Patty and his involvement with her. And that will enrage Victor, no doubt.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Kyle Negotiates w/ Patty

Kyle goes and offers Patty a deal on Wednesday. So Kyle shows up to visit her at her GCPD cell and she tells Kyle he’s not the Abbott that she wanted to see. Kind of weird because I mean did Patty really think Jack was going to come visit her? He’s still in the hospital recovering where she stabbed him. So, I do think Kyle is going to tempt Patty with the idea of cutting a deal, flipping on the real villain, which is Victor, so that Patty doesn’t need to spend the rest of her life in prison. Kyle fully believes that Victor was behind everything Patty did, bankrolling it, encouraging it, all of that.

On Thursday, July 16th, Victor plays hard ball. He is coming at Spectra-Charles. Billy, of course, is the one that Victor’s after, but it’s Sally and Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver). They’re going to pay the price. And I suspect this may light a fire under Billy. So despite his earlier objections, he may join Kyle’s revenge plan against Victor and Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) may get involved since she is bankrolling Spectra-Charles.

Victoria and Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) honor Cole Howard’s (J. Eddie Peck) memory, naming the publishing division of Newman Enterprises they’re setting up after Claire’s dad. He passed a little more than a year ago on July 3rd, 2025 from Legionnaire’s disease. Nikki is extremely concerned about Nick Newman’s (Joshua Morrow) sobriety and worried that he’s going to relapse because of all the stress he’s under. Also, this week, Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) checks in with Nick at Crimson Lights. She’s also concerned.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Victor & Nikki Reconcile

On Friday, July 17th, Victor and Nikki commit to a fresh start. Honestly, this really bothers me given how dirty that Victor has done Jack, who is Nikki’s best friend. But remember, Victor told Nikki that she has to cut Jack out of her life if she wants to reconcile. So, I wonder if Nikki actually did that. If so, it’s even worse.

Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) are worried about Devon. Also, Abigail expresses her concerns to Jack on Monday about her husband. This is all about Devon and his anger issues. The last time Devon gave into his anger, he ruined Nate’s surgical career when he assaulted him. Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) talks with Lily this week at the Genoa City Athletic Club. I’m sure Devon is still giving Lily a hard time about trusting Cane and Holden Novak (Nathan Owens), but Lily is falling for Cane again, and she wants Holden in her life. I do wonder if Devon’s a little jealous about Holden.

Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) and Noah have some issues because of Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Next week, he’s back up at the Shadow Room again talking to Noah and Sienna, and Noah looks like he is ready to punch Matt in the face while Sienna looks worried on Young and the Restless.

Young and the Restless: Power Shifts and Revenge Plans – July 20th Through 24th

Then the week of July 20th through the 24th, we’ve got Victor and Nikki moving forward. But if Kyle gets the deal that he wants from Patty, things could change for them. Our summer spoilers promise Victor and Nikki continue to be tested. We may see Devon getting an anger intervention from Lily, Nate, and Abby. If so, it’ll tick him off and just anger him more.

Noah and Sienna’s relationship faces challenges with Audra trying to tempt Noah away from Sienna and then Matt continuing to push their buttons and stay in their faces. We’ll see more about what happens after Kyle makes Patty that offer of a sweet deal. Christine Blair Romalotti (Lauralee Bell) may need to make some more arrests soon. I picture Patty long-term back in a padded room, not doing a hard time in a state prison because honestly, that’s where she needs to be. She’s crazy.

Nikki gets her bandages off soon, but I expect her sight to continue to be compromised for a while. Cane and Lily get much, much closer. Victor ticks off Billy as he accelerates his efforts to take over Sally’s company. Adam isn’t going to like that and he and Billy may see eye to eye on this. Plus, Nick’s struggles are far from over and Victoria takes the reins at Newman Enterprises and I’m sure she’ll have no problem doing Victor’s dirty work for him, but her brothers might not agree.
