Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for July 27 – 31, 2026 stun as with Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) is being absolutely brutal with somebody that she claims to love and also Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) is totally disgusted with what happens with Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and also to Will Spencer (Crew Morrow).

Also, during the week of July 27th through the 31st, we’re going to see Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) making her move, plus Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) getting to work and some of the Foresters pack up and leave for Monaco. And as we always do on early edition day, we’re going to go over what’s happening the rest of this week. Then we’re going to get into the juicy spoilers coming next week.

Bold and the Beautiful: Bill Laughs at Eric’s Expense

So, on Wednesday, July 22nd, Bill is mocking Eric Forrester (John McCook) and the memes being spread of him online, but Katie’s not laughing. She’s devastated at the nasty things that Eric said to her. But Bill reminds Katie that public opinion is on their side, and what Eric did makes himself look unhinged and also makes Forrester Creations look weak and threatened by this new startup, Logan.

Bold and Beautiful: RJ Flips Out

R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) is defending his family. I’m sure he’s going to be livid at Will who accidentally punched Eric. The whole thing with him and R.J. was so contrived. Why would Eric be at Bikini Bar with the early 20s set from the office anyway?

And once again, R.J. started things talking big and Will was already annoyed because of how Eric was talking smack about Katie. I also expect Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) to say some harsh things to Will and make it clear that she’s done with him forever after this. We’ll get to see Electra’s little pouty face in her mind.

This is one more betrayal from Will. And let’s be real, Eric flat out lied to the reporter about Katie, so it’s understandable why Will was so ticked off. But even so, it was also clear he wasn’t aiming for Eric. This was just a messy situation. And again, R.J. started all of it.

B&B Spoilers: Eric’s Injury and Family Warfare

Brooke is back and she and Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) rush into the Forrester mansion as Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) tells them, “Thank God you’re here.” She tells Brooke that she’s been going out of her mind and Brooke asks how Eric is. And she says they got R.J.’s text and they rushed right over to the mansion.

So, Ridge wants to know where is Eric and Donna says that Electra said they are still a few minutes away. So, Brooke asks how Eric is doing and says that R.J. didn’t really give them any details. And Ridge chimes in that Will punched Eric and he just went down. Donna says she can’t believe their nephew would do something so cruel and to Eric of all people.

Bold and the Beautiful: Eric Worries Everyone

Ridge wants to know why Donna can’t believe it since that’s who Will is and says he’s out of control. We’re going to get the violent Spencer stuff. Then Electra and R.J. help Eric through the front door and he assures everybody that he is fine. Donna hugs and fusses over Eric, who says, “Don’t worry.” But Donna is worried. And Ridge wants to get Eric to the hospital to get him checked out. But Electra says they already tried. He refused. R.J. said Eric definitely wouldn’t agree to it.

Donna’s honey bear insists that he’s okay. Eric says he’s just a little shaken up. Then he said it’ll take more than a punch from Will to knock him out. That was not a sucker punch. And I just maybe Eric doesn’t engage in a lot of street fighting or bar fighting. So the Forrester and Spencer war is clearly heating up. I’m sure Ridge and everybody are going to be furious that Eric’s being called unhinged when he’s the one who just got hit. But you know, wrong place, wrong time. Don’t get between R.J. and Will. That’s the moral of the story for Eric.

Bold and the Beautiful: Katie’s Reckoning and Dylan’s Opportunity

Then on Thursday, July 23rd, Katie shows up to check on Eric. I’m sure she hears about it from Will, maybe from Deke Sharpe (Harrison Cone) since he was there, too. And of course, Katie’s going to feel bad that Eric got hit. But Katie is also upset. She is really bothered by the nasty and untrue things that Eric said in his interview that really hurt Katie’s feelings.

Brooke stands beside Ridge with Donna and Eric on the sofa, and she’s glaring and facing off with Katie in the Forrester living room. And Brooke tells Katie she’s the one who wanted this war. And then Katie tells Eric she’s terribly sorry. Obviously Katie’s horrified that Will punched Eric even though it wasn’t intentional.

Also, on Thursday we have Jessica back. She’s over with Dylan at Bikini Bar in the wake of this Eric, R.J. and Will incident. I’m sure they’re going to talk about what happened, but I also bet that Dylan is going to defend Will. The Forresters make their opinion on Electra and Will known. All part of the conversation with Katie. So, it looks like they’re going to tell her all sorts of rude things about Will and that he’s banned from being around Electra because he’s dangerous. They’re basically going to add insults to Will on top of Eric’s injury.

Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Katie & Eric Hash Things Out

Friday, July 24th, the conversation continues. Katie and Eric are talking about their actions. I would really like to see him own up to Ridge and Brooke what he did. Donna could tell the truth, but I’m sure she’s too scared to because she was there when Eric insisted to Katie that he was going to be her first designer. He didn’t ask. He told. So Eric and Donna and Katie all know that Eric’s lying, but I’m sure nobody will listen to Katie. And Donna is too worried because Eric was already ticked at her after keeping the Hope secret. So, she’s going to let those lies continue.

And after the incident between Eric and Will, and after Katie tries to brokered peace between the families, we’re going to see Brooke coming completely unhinged. And she tells Katie she’s no longer part of the family, and she’s going to be left in complete shock by Brooke’s attitude and words. Will sees that Dylan is the only one who is truly there for him. She told Will he deserves better than how Electra has treated him. So, Will may finally see that he’s got to move on. You know, Dylan hopes Will will move on with her even though Electra will fire her.

B&B Spoilers: Monaco, Family Fallout, and New Collections

Then the week of July 27th through the 31st, we’ll see Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) facing the future, and they may discuss alternatives for starting a family. Watch for R.J. to use this incident with Eric to relentlessly hammer Electra about Will being no good, horrible, and terrible. Expect more of Electra pouting and R.J. saying that Electra deserves better and R.J. definitely thinks that he’s better. I disagree.

Katie heads back to tell the Spencers what happened at the mansion and how ruthless Brooke was to her and that she cut her out of the family. Hope may wonder if that means she’s also cut out of the family. I’m sure Bill and Will are going to tell Katie that she needs to put all this behind her for now on Bold and the Beautiful.

And Bill may tell Katie and Hope just focus on the next collection. Living well’s the best revenge. That kind of stuff. And of course, Bill knows that the world will see the Foresters’ true colors. And Will’s going to gripe and whine to his parents. But hopefully when he brings up Dylan, we’re going to see Bill saying, “That sounds like the girl for you. Somebody loyal, unlike Electra.”

Bold and the Beautiful: Dylan Gets Closer to Will

Expect more of Dylan and Will getting closer. Also, next week, Hope is hard at work at Logan. She and Dee are going to be starting on the new collection very soon. So, Hope’s in the design office, but she gets a surprising visitor, an unwelcome visitor who interrupts her, but Hope’s not going to back down on what she is doing. So, maybe Brooke, I don’t know if I would call her unwelcome, but if she’s there with an ultimatum, then maybe. Could be Steffy with insults, but we’ll see.

Also, we should get sales numbers on Eric’s couture collection. And Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), Brooke, and Ridge have a business trip to Monaco. And it looks like Steffy brings Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) along, I guess, so she can keep an eye on him and keep him away from Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown). But Finn’s biological mom’s going to follow them to Monaco. Those episodes begin airing on Wednesday, July 29th.

DC Studios has released the official trailer for Clayface, and it’s becoming increasingly clear that this won’t be just another comic book movie. The new footage doubles down on the film’s gruesome body horror, delivering unsettling transformation sequences and psychological tension that make it feel closer to a modern horror classic than a traditional superhero blockbuster.

The trailer follows Matt Hagen (Tom Rhys Harries), a Gotham City native whose rise from the streets to Hollywood stardom comes to a devastating end after a violent encounter leaves him horribly disfigured. Desperate to reclaim his life and career, Hagen turns to scientist Dr. Caitlyn Corr (Naomi Ackie) for an experimental treatment. Instead of healing him, the procedure begins transforming him into the shape-shifting monster known as Clayface, sending him down a path of revenge as he slowly loses his grip on reality.

One sequence has already become the trailer’s defining moment. During a terrifying scene aboard an airplane, Hagen watches his face begin to melt before frantically using a pair of scissors in a desperate attempt to stop the transformation. Director James Watkins revealed that the sequence was so graphic that even members of the production crew struggled to watch it while filming. Multiple versions of the scissors prop were created to safely capture the disturbing practical effects.

While previous marketing teased the film’s horror influences, today’s trailer fully embraces them. Grotesque facial distortions, melting flesh, and increasingly violent transformations dominate the footage, reinforcing DC Studios’ promise that Clayface is a genuine R-rated horror film rather than a superhero movie with horror elements. The film draws clear inspiration from body horror classics while telling a tragic story about fame, identity, and obsession.

Interestingly, the trailer still refuses to reveal Clayface’s complete monstrous form. Instead, Warner Bros. continues to tease glimpses of Hagen’s final transformation without giving audiences a full look at the iconic Batman villain, preserving one of the movie’s biggest surprises for its theatrical release.

Joining Harries and Ackie is Max Minghella as Gotham City detective John Pearlman, who becomes entangled in Hagen’s horrifying descent. The film is directed by James Watkins from a screenplay by Hossein Amini, based on a story by Mike Flanagan, with producers including James Gunn, Peter Safran, and Matt Reeves.

If today’s trailer is any indication, Clayface may end up being one of the most unique comic book adaptations ever released. Rather than relying on massive action sequences or world-ending stakes, the film appears focused on delivering an unsettling character-driven horror story that pushes the DC Universe into entirely new territory.

Young and the Restless spoilers for July 27 – 31, 2026 reveal Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) is crushed after her doctor appointment. Also, Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) is making a bargain that you’re going to need to see to believe.

Also, during the week of July 27th through the 31st, we’re going to see Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) doubling down, Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) taking a huge risk, and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) being quite skeptical about something. And as always, on early edition day, we briefly chat about what’s the rest of this week and then we get into the next week’s spoilers.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Moment of Truth for Nikki

With that in mind, on Wednesday, July 22nd, Nikki is really hoping that she is going to get good news from her doctor. And Victor tells Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) that Nikki is really worried she will be permanently blind.

So, Victor quickly checks Matt Clark’s (Roger Howorth) ankle monitor and says the guy was at the GCAC all night. And Nick says Phyllis was making out with Matt and then took him upstairs. Nick is really angry that Phyllis wants Matt to stay in Genoa City and he’s also upset that Phyllis doesn’t think that Matt is dangerous.

Y&R Spoilers: The Newmans Support Nikki

Victoria, Nick, and Victor all go along with Nikki to the doctor. Claire’s very concerned as well. So, the doctor takes off the bandages and he says one person can come in with her after he pulls them off. And she chooses Victor and the doctor says even if you can’t see now that Nikki might still recover her sight that it might come back gradually. So Victor’s holding her shoulder as the doctor says open your eyes. Nikki does but she says it’s all black. I can’t see anything.

Victor kisses her head. She’s devastated. They take Nikki home trying to be positive but she says she may stay blind. She thanks Nick, Victoria, and Claire who are all there for her. And Nikki insists on taking herself up to bed as they all watch her go. Once she is alone, Nikki smashes her mirror in the bedroom and then starts crying.

Young and the Restless: Traci’s Prison Gambit and Martin’s Secrets

Traci’s in front of her laptop while Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor), Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) are seated at the table, but where they can’t be seen by the screen. Martin Laurent (Christopher Cousins) calls on a video chat with Traci. And before that, she tells everybody to just be completely quiet. That way, they can listen.

Martin is thrilled to see Traci and he asks are his letters reaching her and she asks for his help and asks Martin about Dr. Markham (Jere Burns) and yes Martin knows him. He says he met Markham through his twin Alan Laurent (also Christopher Cousins) and also while he was impersonating his brother he was pretending to be Markham’s friend.

So, Traci tells him that Markham helped a crazy woman wreak havoc on her family and that the guy kidnapped Diane. So, Traci asks Martin for help finding Dr. Markham and then Martin refers to Markham as a sociopath which is kind of a pot kettle situation and he does admit it takes one to know one.

Young and Restless Spoilers: Martin Trash-Talks Markham

Martin calls Markham’s academic papers the work of a lunatic but then Martin says Markham and Alan used to visit a summer house together. But Martin wants a favor before he gives specific information and he asked Traci to come see him in person at the prison.

Martin says he has things to tell her, but only in person. And he tells Traci that he still loves her and will give her what she needs, but in person. Traci agrees to set up a meeting and ends the call. And of course, Diane hates that Traci went through this. She doesn’t really want to see Martin in person, but she’s going to do it to get what they need. But Diane thinks they can maybe figure out how to find the summer house without Traci having to go see Martin in the psych ward of the prison. But Traci still plans to go because she wants to prove she is not scared of Martin.

Y&R Spoilers: Phyllis and Matt’s Complicated Chemistry

We’ve got Phyllis waking up to Matt sleeping on the sofa in her hotel room and Phyllis asks why he’s not in bed with her. Matt says he didn’t want to presume and Phyllis calls this serial rapist a gentleman. I don’t understand what Young and the Restless is thinking with this. Great actor, terrible role. Matt says he has never been called a gentleman and Phyllis says he’s a good kisser. Turns out Matt stopped things before they got intimate. Clearly, Phyllis was ready to give it all up. And he said because he’s planning to leave town, Matt thought he would be taking advantage of Phyllis.

She tells Matt she feels safe with him and says forget about Nick. But Matt doesn’t want to give Nick another reason to hate him. And Matt says he just wants a new life without all these complications. So, Phyllis says he can go, but staying could be life-changing. And then Matt asks her to buy him breakfast because he’s broke. So, Phyllis takes him to Society and then offers him a job at Arabesque, working for her, even though his only job experience is in doing criminal things.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Adam & Chelsea Make a Move

Thursday, July 23rd, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and Chelsea Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) make a power move trying to impress Victor. Sort of. They’re being sneaky. I bet Adam and Chelsea are gonna convince Victor that they’re going to be ruthless with Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) and forcibly take Newman Media from her. I would honestly be stunned if Victor buys what they’re selling, but maybe he’s distracted by the Nikki stuff.

Also, Nick makes a confession to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case). Now, this may be something to do with his drug addiction or Nikki. Or maybe Nick drops the bombshell that Sharon’s rapist, who raped her once and attempted to rape her a second time, is now in a romance with Phyllis, and that Nick saw them together.

Y&R Spoilers: Secrets and Blindness Coping

On Friday, July 24th, Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) finds common ground with his mother-in-law, Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson). I’m thinking Abby might have talked to her mom about Devon’s anger issues. So, maybe Ashley’s trying to help Abby out. Cane strikes a bargain with somebody.

Now I’m hoping it’s a fun and flirty bargain with Lily Winters (Christel Khalil). Something really interesting, really surprising for us. But it might also be with Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) about Chancellor or even Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) since they’re both supposed to be coming to work for him.

Sally and Billy find out that Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) has been keeping a secret. That is worrisome. Then the week of July 27th through the 31st, we’re going to see how Nikki’s coping with her blindness and if she will lean more on family or continue to withdraw into this shell. Nick, Victoria, Claire, and Victor are all increasingly concerned and hope that Nikki’s sight will return soon, but it may be a while.

I want to see Adam over there talking to her about his experience while he was blind. I think that would be great. They kind of teased that the other day, but then they tend to put him on the back burner all the time.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Will Christine Make a Deal with Patty?

We’ll also find out if DA Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell) is willing to make some sort of offer to Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) to get the goods on Victor. Christine was pretty ticked that Victor fabricated evidence and had Victoria give her the false info and then Christine had arrests made that she later had to drop.

Tracy is likely going to meet with Martin and we’ll do it in person at the prison unless Kyle and Jack can find Markham’s summer house. We may get more scenes of Christopher Cousins being a creep. Hopefully Tracy comes out of this unscathed. Adam gets an answer from Sally and Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) on whether they’ll accept his deal. And then Adam is full steam ahead trying to pull the wool over Victor’s eyes about it. I still don’t think he’ll believe that Adam is really going to target Sally.

Ashley is going to be leaving Genoa City soon since Jack is home and Diane is safe. And we’ll learn more about Jill’s big secret. And I’m especially worried that it might concern her health. I also suspect that Matt’s continued presence in Genoa City and his growing connection to Phyllis might be what pushes Nick to relapse. Phyllis won’t back down and is basically taking ownership of Matt. So, she and Victor may have some sort of twisted custody battle over the guy.

Days of Our Lives spoilers for July 27 – 31, 2026 kick off with Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) blindsided by new info about her stolen designs. Plus, Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) is stunned by something that crops up in the case of Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis).

Also, in the week of July 27th through the 31st, we’re going to get more on Kristen DiMera’s (Stacy Haiduk) kidnapping, Belle Black and Chad DiMera’s (Billy Flynn) Italy plans, and what EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) is going to do about his mounting problems. And as always, on early edition day, we first chat about the rest of this week, then we dive into spoilers for the following week.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Gabi & Leo Join Forces

So, on Wednesday, July 22nd, we’ve got Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) and Gabi teaming up. So Leo has Chad’s approval to do the story on the counterfeit Gabi Chic bags. The FBI is working on it, too. And Gwen’s knockoff purse was what started the whole thing for Gabi and Leo to begin with.

So this week, we’re going to see him stop by Gwen Rizczech’s (Emily O’Brien) room at the Salem Inn. And Leo realizes Gwen’s bed wasn’t slept in. So Leo knows Gwen didn’t make it back last night. It’s all very suspicious. And since Leo and Gabi are going to be talking about Gwen, we could see Leo telling Gabi how worried he is about his bestie. Leo may also tell Gabi that Gwen warned him if something happened to her that EJ did it. And Leo might even tell Gabi about the dead man’s switch that Gwen set up with her lawyer.

DOOL Spoilers: EJ’s Schemes and Holly’s Dilemma

Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) makes Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) an offer. So, right now, Kayla is certain that EJ will be forced out as Salem University’s owner. But Kayla may be so impressed with Cat that she offers her a job to stay on at the hospital after EJ is gone. But he also offered Cat a job working as his personal assistant at DiMera. He’s definitely not giving her up.

Meanwhile, Holly is livid. She keeps denying taking the pills that Tate found in her bag, and neither Sarah nor Tate Black (Leo Howard) seem willing to believe her. So, we could see Holly sneaking out of the hospital because she’s so upset. It was Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) who brought the bag, and Holly was actually giving some logical points to Tate and Sarah. Holly insisted she wouldn’t have asked Tate to look in her bag if she’d had drugs in it, because that wouldn’t make any sense. But Sarah seems inclined to believe the worst right now.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: EJ Plots with Rita

We also have a stressed out EJ talking to his henchwoman, Rita. And I wonder if she’s the one overseeing Kristen’s kidnapping. If you remember, Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford) and Kristen were talking about what’s ahead for them. And she wants Lexie to swap places with her. So, Kristen gets away and Lexie winds up on DiMera Island for the rest of her very limited days.

So Kristen told Lexie that the directions that EJ gave to Island staff was that his sister would be delivered to the island. Kristen’s got a spy there, presumably from her own past dealings, dumping people there, and she thinks since Lexie is also EJ’s sister, the island staff might not ask questions. Lexie’s skeptical, but Kristen is desperate.

Soo, we also have Sarah asking for Xander’s help again, and Sarah may have questions about the bag. Sounds like Bonnie packed it, so maybe Xander will go back to the mansion and talk to Bonnie. But Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) already searched Holly’s room and found nothing. And I’m sure that the young woman’s going to be ticked off when she finds out Brady was going through her stuff.

Days Spoilers: Vow Renewals and Family Collapses

Then on Thursday, July 23rd, Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) is venting to Belle. I’m quite sure it’s another tirade about Joy Wesley (AlexAnn Hopkins) and Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson). And I wonder if Belle’s going to remind Stephanie that Joy showed her some grace. She could have pressed for charges to have Stephanie set her up for attempted murder. There’s no telling. Belle’s usually pretty reasonable and level-headed. And Stephanie’s kind of unhinged with jealousy right now.

Speaking of that, Chad is there for Alex who’s feeling stressed. He loves Stephanie, but baby Kelsey has to be his priority. And at this point, Stephanie’s just making one bad choice after another. Because if not for her pulling that gun, Alex and Stephanie would be visiting with Kelsey in their home with Joy nowhere in sight.

DOOL Spoilers: Abe & Lexie Renew Their Vows

Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) listens as Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer) talks about his growing feelings and Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and Lexie have a vow renewal. This seems to be how she’s going to say goodbye to Abe before Lexie runs off to the island to die on the beach instead of in Salem. Theo and Abe are both thrilled and they have no idea that disaster is looming.

Sadly, I doubt that Lexie is going to make it out of Salem. A major collapse is coming. Kristen’s also having a last moment with the one she loves. She is out at Bayview with Brady visiting with Rachel. And Rachel is supposed to be out of the hospital soon. So, Kristen hugs her daughter and tells Rachel she’s her heart. She’s her greatest treasure.

And Kristen also tells Rachel she wants her life to be bright and beautiful. So clearly Kristen’s planning on ditching Rachel. And Brady may realize this conversation is suspicious. So, Kristen’s plan is to find out when EJ’s going to have her snatched so that Lexie can swap places with her. But Kristen’s going to be snatched and find out no one’s coming to take her place.

Days of Our Lives: Exposures and Reunions

Then on Friday, July 24th, Leo convinces Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) to help. So, this may be about the Gabi stuff or it may be about Gwen. And I specifically wonder if Melinda is the lawyer that Gwen gave all the evidence of EJ’s crimes to hold on to in case something happened to her. Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) grills EJ and he’s pretty upset on Days of our Lives.

Johnny demands to know if EJ planted the drugs in Holly’s bag. I mean, of course he did, but will he confess to Johnny, or will he keep denying? Sarah and Xander share a moment of peace. These two are going to be on the road to reunion soon. But first, Sarah and Brady tell each other, “I love you,” before things start to unravel for them as she realizes he’s really not the man for her.

Her ex-husband Xander is the love of Sarah’s life. Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) and Steve Johnson worry about what’s ahead. Kayla’s hopeful the hospital will be better off without EJ. But with Gwen not returning her calls, Kayla may start to worry. Plus, Stephanie’s got marriage issues, so those two have a lot to talk about.

Days Spoilers: Lexie Take a Turn for the Worse

Then the week of July 27th through the 31st, we’re going to see Lexie collapsing again soon. It’s going to be a really bad moment. Abe and Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) are going to freak out and rush Lexie to University Hospital. She doesn’t want to be there, but I think she’ll realize that she can’t creep out of Salem under her own steam. Abe and Theo learn the truth about Lexie dying soon, and they’re both going to rage at EJ.

Plus, Kristen’s time in Salem is ending soon. Her plan with Lexie collapses, and Kristen’s taken soon by a masked man. Looks like the same dude who snatched Gwen, who may also be on DiMera Island right now. It could be kind of funny if Gwen and Kristen both end up there, because if you remember, Kristen kidnapped Sarah and dumped her there. And then Gwen wound up as her co-conspirator, plotting to keep Sarah there and away from Xander. So, this would all be very karmic.

DOOL Spoilers: Gabi Starts to Learn the Truth

Gabi may get some insight on who’s stealing her designs. I think she’s going to be blindsided when she finds out the truth. And I do think that Gabi soon is going to circle back to Xander and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) with an agreement to help because Gabi is wrong about them targeting her. We’ll see if Philip follows Xander’s instructions to fix this mess with Gabi or if Philip’s ego gets in the way and he doesn’t even want to deal with her.

Leo, I think, is going to discover the culprit behind the fake Gabi Chic purses. I think it’s going to be a shocker, and this is going to hit close to home. Johnny is bothered by EJ’s actions, but will he take a step back and refuse to help him anymore? And will Johnny let EJ get away with framing Holly as a druggie? I hope not.

Cat does more hypnosis soon with Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall), and we’ll find out just how deep she got in with EJ in Italy. And Belle and Chad may head off on an Italian adventure soon, unless another clue comes pointing to more for them to find in Salem.

William Shatner and his daughter Melanie Shatner are shedding light on their battles with stage IV cancer — which they fought at the same time.

Melanie, 61, was undergoing chemotherapy for stage IV breast cancer in June 2023 when William, 95, was diagnosed with stage IV malignant melanoma, which spread to his lungs and brain.

“I remember vividly thinking, ‘I don’t have the strength to take care of myself and lose my father at the same time,’” Melanie told People in an interview published on Wednesday, July 22.

William, meanwhile, remained positive while going through his own treatment. “They said, ‘You got cancer. If you came in later, you would have been dead,’” he said. “See? That’s my life. I think the universe is taking care of me.”

Aside from his iconic Star Trek roles, William Shatner has made headlines over the years for his relationships. Shatner and actress Gloria Rand tied the knot in August 1956 after meeting on the set of a television play called Dreams. The pair welcomed daughter Leslie in 1958, followed by Lisabeth in 1961 and Melanie in […]

Melanie initially discovered a lump on her breast one year before her father’s diagnosis.

“I woke up in the middle of the night, and my finger moved up right beneath my breast. I felt a little bump and thought, ‘It’s just a bug bite,’” she recalled, noting she had a clear mammogram five months earlier.

Melanie got imaging done the next day just to be safe, adding, “Something pushed me back and said, ‘No, have her recheck it.’ She put the wand exactly where I put my finger and under her breath said, ‘Now, I would have missed that.’”

Melanie’s HER2-positive breast cancer spread to lymph nodes in her chest. William, for his part, was “devastated” to learn about his daughter’s health battle.

“She was very conscious of the importance of her life for herself and for her family,” he said.

William ultimately took on the cost of Melanie’s cancer treatment.

“You said to me, ‘I do not want you to worry. Just send me the bills,’” she shared. “Then you made me laugh so hard when I was still going to the doctor a year later. You said, ‘You’ve got to get well. We’re going to be in the poorhouse!’”

Melanie underwent multiple rounds of chemo with HER2-targeted therapies, a double mastectomy and 30 radiation therapy treatments.

“Chemo was the most physically draining, and the radiation I found so emotionally draining,” she added.

During her treatment, Melanie noticed a lump on her dad’s cheek.

“I went to the family doctor, and he said, ‘It’s your salivary gland. It’s blocked. Just massage it,’” William recalled about the mass, which continued to grow.

William later underwent surgery to remove the tumor on his face, which was followed by two years of immunotherapy to target the cancer in his lungs and brain.

“We got the perfect doctors for her cancer and my cancer,” William continued.

William and Melanie were both declared cancer-free in late 2024.

Thank You!

“It was the third time in my life I had heard him cry,” Melanie said, while her dad added, “I’m healthier now than I’ve been in years. The brain is like a muscle. It feeds on activity.”

After their individual health scares, Melanie and William each have a different outlook on mortality.

“I do think you’re going to outlive me, but I have always thought if you go first, then I won’t be afraid because you’ll be the one to be there for me when I go,” Melanie told William, who quipped, “It’s a huge responsibility.”

It’s been one year since Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe not only graced our TV screens but also decided to continue their relationship outside the ‘Love Island USA’ villa. Throughout their time as a couple, the pair faced constant criticism and rumors. However, with the support of their loyal Nicolandria fanbase, they celebrated their love while landing major brand deals after leaving the villa. Now, it looks like their era may be coming to an end, as a source has spoken out about the couple’s current relationship status.

Sources Claim Olandria & Nic Have Decided To Go Their Separate Ways

On Wednesday, news began circulating after PEOPLE magazine reported that Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe have reportedly called it quits. A source confirmed to the outlet that the former ‘Love Island USA’ Season 7 couple recently decided to end their relationship. According to the source, distance and their busy schedules made it challenging to maintain their connection. However, the source added:

“They still remain close friends. They share a deep love and respect for each other and will always support one another whenever possible.”

Before the breakup news surfaced, Carthen addressed months of speculation surrounding her relationship with Vansteenberghe during a June interview with Cosmopolitan. She said:

“Why does it matter if me and Nic are together? Even when we were at Coachella, people in the comments were like, ‘Oh, I just needed proof that they saw each other this week.’ Why are you so invested in people that don’t know you?… I don’t always post what people want me to or do what people want me to do.”

History of Nicolandria: How Olandria Carthen & Nic Vansteenberghe Coupled Up

Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe didn’t have the typical ‘Love Island USA’ journey that most couples experienced during Season 7. At first, Olandria was coupled with Taylor Williams. Nic was coupled Bell-A Walker before coupling with with Cierra Ortega from the beginning of the season.

Although they shared kisses during challenges, neither explored a romantic connection outside those moments. Both respected their original partners. Still, viewers noticed undeniable chemistry between them. Fans quickly began rooting for what eventually became known as “Nicolandria” across social media.

Following the Casa Amor coupling, Olandria was left single and vulnerable at the Casa villa. Nic was also left single and vulnerable at the main villa. Before leaving, production gave the pair one final opportunity. They could either leave the villa separately or continue their journey together as a couple. The two chose each other and shared a steamy kiss in Soul Ties. They finally gave fans the moment they had anticipated all season. Their villa journey took another twist. Taylor ultimately decided to couple up with Clarke Carraway. Nic had previously chosen to couple up with Cierra Ortega during Casa Amor. Soon afterward, Cierra was removed from the villa after resurfaced social media posts showed her using a racial slur.

With Nic single again, he and Olandria finally began exploring their connection. Carthen later told PEOPLE she initially ignored her feelings. She said she did so out of respect for Cierra and their established relationship. As their romance developed, Nicolandria quickly became fan favorites. They ultimately finished ‘Love Island USA’ Season 7 as the runners-up. Outside the villa, the couple landed major brand collaborations, including a partnership with NYX Cosmetics. They also attended red carpets and other public events together.

Despite their success, many fans questioned their relationship because they were rarely seen together. Rumors also circulated that Nic was dating someone else. However, in June, Nic proudly claimed Carthen as his girlfriend after the pair attended the BET Awards together.

Lil Wayne is opening up about the time he recorded one of his headline-making albums from jail. During an appearance on the “Friends Keep Secrets” podcast, the 43-year-old said he put in an extreme amount of time and effort while serving an 8-month sentence at New York’s Rikers Island to put his album together in 2010.

According to Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., he spent time in “the studio every night in jail,” revealing that the studio was actually him on the phone. “In my cell,” he added. “That meant everybody be quiet. I’m about to beat on this damn table.”

Although Lil Wayne had a 10:45 PM curfew, the rapper worked around it by starting his phone calls just before the cutoff time so that he could continue working on his project. “I would do it on purpose … That’s why everyone’s gotta lock in,” he said. “It was just me on the phone and [that way] I can actually record.”

Lil Wayne Said The People In Jail Made His Sentence Much Easier For Him

When Lil Wayne was asked if spending those eight months in jail was “the worst year” of his life, the rapper said it wasn’t that bad because the people at Rikers Island made it easier for him because of his status.

“… I have to give all of that thanks and credit to the people that were around me in there. They made it their job to make it easy for me,” he said.

Lil Wayne explained that when he first went in, he did what he could to make the days go by faster, but after some time, he accepted his fate. He even joined his fellow inmates by watching the Discovery Channel’s “Naked and Afraid.”

“You think they’re watching it because a female is in there naked. Nah, they know the storyline, they know everything,” he said.

Lil Wayne Recalls The First Day Behind Bars

In his memoir, “Gone ‘Til November,” Lil Wayne recounted his first day behind bars, stating that he was so beside himself that he had to speak with the facility’s psychiatrist.

“If I hadn’t traded my blue Marc Jacobs jeans, white polo, and gray Vans for green onesies, I wouldn’t have believed this shit myself. I had to talk to the prison psychiatrist when I got here. I told her that I shouldn’t be talking to her because I’m not crazy … but I ended up really enjoying her conversation,” part of the memoir read, per Revolt.

Elsewhere in the book, Lil Wayne said the prison’s captain warned him from the beginning that he would follow the rules and stay out of trouble.

“As soon as I sat down in the captain’s office, his exact first words to me were, ‘Don’t f-ck with my staff! Don’t come in here trying to be what you are. You’re not gonna ‘Lil Wayne’ up in this mothaf-cka!’ After the captain’s great words of discouragement, I was handed a towel, two sheets, a toothbrush, toothpaste, and a green cup. Oh yeah, and a cell, cell 29,” he wrote.

Wayne Was Under Fire A Few Weeks Ago

According to a previous report from The Blast, Lil Wayne was under fire several weeks ago when he ghosted a scheduled concert appearance in Maine. After hours of waiting, concertgoers were informed that the “Lollipop” rapper wasn’t coming on stage, leaving thousands of fans disappointed.

It’s not the first time he’s missed a show either. Back in 2025, Lil Wayne made headlines after ditching a scheduled performance in Toronto and, months later, walked off stage during a Los Angeles show due to an alleged illness.

For the most recent show, Lil Wayne promised to make it right by rescheduling the performance for July 28, 2026, telling his fans that he was “so sorry” about the mishap.

Wayne Was Upset Over Super Bowl Snub

In 2025, Wayne was the subject of much attention after calling out the NFL for overlooking him to perform during Super Bowl LIX.

“They stole that feeling. I don’t want to do it [anymore]. It was perfect,” he said. “To perform, it’s a bunch of things [the NFL] going to tell you to do and not do, a**es to kiss and not kiss.”

He went on to say that he refused to bend the knee and hang out with folks he normally wouldn’t just for relevance. “You ain’t never seen me in them types of venues. I ain’t Drake. I ain’t out there smiling like that everywhere. I’m in the stu’, smokin’ and recording,” he said.

Matthew and Camila McConaughey are giving tequila lovers a new way to celebrate National Tequila Day, no cocktail shaker required.

The couple’s Pantalones Organic Tequila has joined forces with Tipsy Scoop to transform the classic margarita into a frozen, alcohol-infused dessert. The collaboration begins with a limited-edition Peaches & Cream Margarita Ice Cream before expanding later this summer with a vegan flavor created exclusively for Tipsy Scoop’s new Dallas location.

According to a press release sent to The Blast, the partnership is intended to bring “the best of happy hour” to the ice cream shop during one of the hottest stretches of summer.

Launching July 22, the Pantalones Peaches & Cream Margarita Ice Cream blends fresh peach ice cream with Pantalones Organic Reposado Tequila and a hint of lime. The result is intended to capture the sweet, creamy, and slightly tart flavor of a peach margarita in scoopable form.

“Most margaritas are served on the rocks. This summer, we’re deciding to serve ours by the scoop,” Pantalones Organic Tequila CMO Persia Tatar said in the release. “National Tequila Day is one of our favorite holidays, so partnering with Tipsy Scoop to turn a summer margarita into ice cream felt like a no-brainer. It’s fun, unexpected, and proof that tequila belongs in more places than just your glass.”

The limited-edition flavor will be available through August at every Tipsy Scoop Barlour. Customers can purchase an individual scoop for $8.50 or take home a pint for $16.

Fans Can Order The Boozy Ice Cream Nationwide

Fans who do not live near a Tipsy Scoop location will still be able to try the McConaugheys’ latest creation. The Peaches & Cream Margarita flavor is available for nationwide delivery through Goldbelly in a four-pint package priced at $109.95. The bundle also includes a keepsake insulated Tipsy Scoop tote bag.

This is not simply tequila-flavored ice cream. According to the Goldbelly product listing, the frozen dessert contains up to 5% alcohol by volume. That places its maximum alcohol content in the range of some beers, meaning customers must be at least 21 years old to purchase or consume it. An adult signature is also required when the package is delivered, and it cannot be left unattended at the door.

The ice cream contains milk and is processed in a facility that also handles wheat, soy, tree nuts, and peanuts.

The Collaboration Expands Tipsy Scoop’s Boozy Dessert Menu

Tipsy Scoop has been blending cocktails and frozen desserts since 2013, offering alcohol-infused takes on ice cream, sorbet, and other nostalgic treats.

The company currently operates locations in New York City and Philadelphia, along with franchises in Washington, D.C., the Bahamas, Portland, Nashville, Pensacola, and Baltimore. Dallas will become its newest market when the upcoming Barlour opens.

Its products are made with real spirits rather than flavoring alone, which is why they are reserved for adults. The brand’s other creations have included Cake Batter Vodka Martini ice cream, Mango Margarita Sorbet, and Tequila Mexican “Hot” Chocolate.

For the McConaugheys, the collaboration also creates another way to place Pantalones outside the traditional liquor aisle and introduce the tequila to customers through an unconventional summer product.

Pantalones Continues To Grow

Matthew and Camila co-founded Pantalones Organic Tequila as a premium spirits brand with a deliberately irreverent personality. Produced in Amatitán, Jalisco, Mexico, its portfolio is made with 100% blue Weber agave and includes Blanco, Reposado, Añejo, and Extra Añejo expressions. The brand is also USDA-certified organic.

“The world doesn’t need another celebrity tequila, but tequila sure could use a kick in the pants. Pantalones Organic Tequila is the best thing we’ve made with our pants on,” Matthew and Camila McConaughey said in a statement. “We said, ‘let’s do it together and be face-forward.”

Pantalones Backs Up Its Playful Marketing With Major Awards

Despite its comedic marketing, Pantalones has collected several industry honors. Its Añejo earned a Double Gold medal at the 2026 San Francisco World Spirits Competition for the third consecutive year, elevating the expression to Platinum status. Wine Enthusiast also awarded 94 points to both its Blanco and Añejo tequilas, while the Reposado received 93 points.

Now, Pantalones is putting that award-winning Reposado into an adults-only dessert that allows fans to toast National Tequila Day with a spoon instead of a shot glass.

Cardi B has broken her silence on her latest romantic interest, admitting she doesn’t like all the attention on her love life.

The rapper caused a buzz after having a flirty interaction with soccer player Maduka Okoye during Paris Fashion Week. However, things intensified after the pair were spotted on a dinner date abroad.

Now, Cardi B is addressing the chatter, describing the frenzy as over the top, as she is simply having a good time.

After her outing with Maduka caused quite the stir online, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper took to her Instagram Live to address fans.

“No cap, I’m really hip-hop’s Britney Spears. Like a b-tch right here feeling like Britney,” she began in the recording taken in her vehicle.

Cardi then lamented that other celebrities manage to have a semblance of privacy when it comes to their intimate relationships. However, the reverse is the case for her. “When it comes to me b-tch, I can’t even f-cking p-ss in a cup,” she slammed as seen in a viral clip.

Nevertheless, the Grammy winner isn’t bothered by all the attention, because there are stars who would play to have their names on everyone’s lips. Concluding her rant, Cardi declared that she welcomes all the drama.

She took to her X page to reiterate her message, writing, “Just know …I understand Britney Spears.”

Cardi B’s Date Night Ignites Baby Mama Scandal

Perhaps the “drama” Cardi is referring to is bombshell allegations revealed by Okoye’s baby mama following their date night in Italy.

As reported by The Blast, Jelicia Westhoff, who shares a child with the soccer star, took to social media to accuse him of infidelity and negligent parenting.

Seemingly triggered by his budding romance with the rapper, Westhoff claimed Okoye cheated on her numerous times with both women and men during their relationship. Dropping a major bomb about the athlete’s sexuality, she alleged that Okoye came out as bisexual to her.

Westhoff further called out Okoye for irresponsible parenting, recalling an incident in December last year when their son was sick and hospitalized four times but the soccer star didn’t come visit once.

“I been calm; I gave you 1000000 chances, and do you take care of him no?” she slammed.

While Westhoff put her baby daddy on blast, Okoye seemed busy enjoying his time with Cardi B after their initial spark in Paris.

According to The Blast, weeks after their encounter at PFW, the pair were spotted on a date at Gio’s restaurant at the St. Regis. Cardi and the footballer appeared cozy, sitting next to each other while joined by friends at the table.

Although they were chatty, there was no display of PDA as reported by eyewitnesses. The “I Like It” songstress looked ravishing in a figure-hugging turquoise dress with a plunging neckline that accentuated her bosom.

Cardi B’s Baby Daddy Battles Assault Allegations

As the rapper explores her connection with Okoye, questions have risen about the state of her relationship with her baby daddy, Stefon Diggs.

Cardi and the NFL player first debuted their romance in May 2025 and, in the months that followed, announced the birth of their son. However, they have been on-and-off ever since.

Amid the instability of their romance, Diggs is embattled in a bitter legal drama with social media influencer Christopher Griffith, who has accused him of sexual assault.

Per The Blast, in the case’s latest update, Griffith revealed to the court that he has turned over more than 100 pages of communication between him and the former New England Patriots alum.

The Rapper And NFL Player Were Involved In A Heated Altercation

Last month, Diggs and Cardi made headlines after they were spotted having a tense moment during an outing in Maryland.

After an unexpected reunion, the co-parents got tongues wagging after they were caught arguing in public outside a coffee shop and gym location. Footage from the incident showed the “WAP” rapper screaming and making angry gestures as she addressed Diggs.

Although no audio was provided from the argument, Diggs later addressed fans’ speculation about a breakup, claiming there was no trouble in paradise. “That’s my child’s mother. I love her to death,” he said, per The Blast.
