Can Rucking Improve Posture? How It Builds Core Strength
Weighted walking has moved from military training grounds to suburban sidewalks, and one question keeps coming up for people trying it. Can strapping on a loaded pack actually fix the slump that hours at a desk leave behind? Rucking posture is the piece of the trend that fitness pros, physical therapists and everyday walkers say delivers the fastest change.
The short answer from experts and athletes who have tested it is yes, though the reasons involve more than just carrying weight.
How Rucking Works on Your Posture
The load in a rucksack forces muscles that most people ignore to switch on. Lara Heimann, a physical therapist and yoga instructor, told Peloton that “when you’re wearing a backpack, your upper trapezius muscles, shoulders and upper back muscles have to engage, and that can be really helpful for people who have weak upper back muscles and poor posture.”
Grinder Gym breaks the effect into three parts. The pack loads the shoulders, traps and upper back, which are the muscles responsible for keeping shoulders pulled back rather than rounded forward. The core has to stabilize the body under the added weight, building a stronger foundation for the spine. And the load itself acts as a nudge against slouching, since leaning forward with weight on your back quickly becomes uncomfortable.
If you have ever sent off an at-home gut microbiome test and wondered whether the results were real, you are not alone. A study published February 26, 2026, in the Nature journal Communications Biology suggests a lot of that skepticism is warranted. Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University […]
That discomfort is the tell. Tony Vacharasanee, an avid rucker and NASM-certified personal trainer, told Shape that “it’s extremely uncomfortable to have bad posture while rucking.” He recommends positioning weight over the midfoot, leaning the trunk forward slightly and keeping the torso tall instead of slumping.
Can Rucking Improve Posture in Everyday Life
The people who have tried it say the change shows up fast. Kelsey Kryger tracked 30 days of rucking for Men’s Journal and wrote that within the first few walks she could feel her upper back tiring and her shoulders rounding forward. She traced it to her desk job.
“After the first week, my body started to adjust. The weight felt more manageable, and I didn’t feel like I was fighting my posture the entire time. I even started noticing the difference during my workdays too, catching myself sitting a bit taller and being more aware of my posture rather than defaulting to that usual slump,” Kryger wrote.
Amy Glover reported similar carryover for HuffPost. “I stuck to ‘weighted walking’ for my last four rambles, and have to say I think it’s even improved my non-walking posture,” she wrote, crediting a new awareness of what her core and shoulders should feel like when her torso is upright.
“Rucking strengthens the muscles that keep your spine upright,” said Dan Fahey of Gritty Soldier Fitness. “Over time, this can improve posture and reduce common low-back issues caused by weakness and inactivity.”
Why Posture Matters for Your Overall Health
The stakes go beyond looking taller. Good posture helps prevent aches in the back, neck and shoulders, cuts the risk of sports injuries and reduces wear on joints, especially the spine, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
Slouching does the opposite. RUKSAK notes that hunching forward stresses the spine and can lead to degenerative changes over time, raising the risk of conditions like osteoarthritis and herniated discs, while also affecting nutrient absorption, mood and cognitive function.
How to Avoid Common Rucking Mistakes
Form matters. Mari-Carmen Sanchez-Morris, a former nurse and women’s health and fitness coach, told Patient that hunching under the load is the fastest way to strain your back.
“To avoid this, keep your shoulders back, stand tall and engage your core as you walk,” she said. “Wearing the wrong shoes is another pitfall. Make sure you’re using supportive walking or hiking shoes to keep your feet comfortable and reduce your chance of blisters or injury.”
Stride also counts. Deliberate stepping, pulling the leg forward with the hip and driving off the back leg, produces the muscle engagement that pays off in better alignment. Beginners should start with a light load and add weight gradually to avoid injury.

If you’re waiting for Solo Leveling to come back for its third season, don’t fret, as the franchise has returned with a brand new look for its S-Rank Hunter. The anime adaptation of this popular Webtoon novel aired its final episode back in 2025, and so far, there has been confirmation that Season 3 will be coming out later this year, as well as a Netflix adaptation. But in addition to these two projects, there’s another addition to the Solo Leveling adaptation worth keeping an eye on.
Last year, it was announced that Solo Leveling would receive an ice show called Solo Leveling on Ice, which took place at Mokdong Indoor Ice Rink in Seoul, South Korea, in December. Starring in this ice show as Sung Jinwoo was Kim Jinhwan, a K-pop idol and member of the group IKON. But it seems this ice show has extended its run, as a brand-new trailer has dropped, featuring a new look for these live-action hunters.
A new trailer for Solo Leveling on Ice was uploaded on the show’s official social media channels. Starring in this new leg of the show is South Korean figure skater and World silver medalist Cha Junhwan as Sung Jinwoo. Another new face in the cast list is Kim Yerim, who will be playing Jinwoo’s love interest, Cha Hae-in, Choi Woohyuk as Yoo Jinho, South Korean influencer AMY as Jinwoo’s old friend, Loo Joohee; and Lee Si Hyung as Igris. Solo Leveling on Ice will return to the Mokdong Indoor Ice Rink, and it’s set to start next month.
What Is Solo Leveling About?
Solo Leveling takes place in a world where portals, called Gates, appear, and it’s up to hunters, humans with supernatural abilities, to close them by fighting monsters and beating the dungeon boss. The show follows Sung Jinwoo, who was once an E-rank hunter and was seen as the weakest of all humankind. But a near-death experience allowed him to become a “Player,” giving him the ability to level up his rank, eventually becoming an S-Rank Hunter. As of now, the anime adaptation has covered the first 13 story arcs from the webnovel and ended at the start of the “Recruitment arc.” With Season 3 confirmed, it’s possible that the next installment will not only continue where it left off, but could also adapt at least the next two story arcs, the Ahjin Guild Arc and the Double Dungeon Arc.
Solo Leveling Seasons 1 and 2 are available to stream on Crunchyroll, while Season 3 has yet to announce a release date. Solo Leveling on Ice takes place at Mokdong Indoor Ice Rink in South Korea from August 7 to 17, 2026. Follow Collider for more updates.

Gilmore Girls fans are still coming to terms with the show being removed from Netflix — but where will it be available instead?
Netflix broke the news in June 2026 by taking to X with a statement that read, “It’s a show? It’s a lifestyle. It’s a religion.”
The post continued: “We are sorry to say that Gilmore Girls Seasons 1-7 will be leaving Netflix in the US on June 30. Raising a cup of coffee to every fan who visited Stars Hollow with us.”
While only Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life will remain on Netflix — for now — the original series is still available to stream on Disney+, Hulu and Prime Video.
More than 20 years after Gilmore Girls debuted on October 5, 2000 — and was rebooted in 2016 for a four-part update — viewers are still yearning for more from Lorelai and Rory Gilmore. Thank You!

Gilmore Girls, which aired from 2000 to 2007, followed a mother-daughter pair living in the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut.
In addition to Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, Gilmore Girls starred an ensemble cast that included Melissa McCarthy, Keiko Agena, Yanic Truesdale, Scott Patterson, Kelly Bishop, Edward Herrmann and Liza Weil. Jared Padalecki, Milo Ventimiglia, Sean Gunn, Chris Eigeman and Matt Czuchry made up the rest of the cast.
After Gilmore Girls came to an end, fans asked for a revival. They got their wish with Netflix’s Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, which debuted in 2016. The four-episode show ended on a major cliffhanger but there haven’t been any news of more episodes.
“I’ve been saying for a long time [that] what I could see making sense is a Christmas movie, in the tradition of Downton Abbey or those other kinds of shows that are over, but then kind of come together especially around the holidays,” Graham told The Hollywood Reporter in 2025. “I think that would be very Gilmore-friendly.”
Oy with the poodles already! It’s officially been 20 years since Gilmore Girls aired its divisive season 6 finale, concluding creators Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino’s run on the show, and we’re breaking down some must-know facts about the series to celebrate the anniversary. For example, did you know that Sherman-Palladino had the last four […]
At the time, Patterson spoke to Us about the impact Gilmore Girls still has on fans to this day.
“This sort of medicinal, therapeutic side to the show is undeniable,” he told Us. “I hear it all the time. I hear, ‘This show saved me,’ ‘This show got me through cancer,’ ‘This show got me through Iraq.’”
Patterson recalled one 2015 occasion when he was approached by a man from the military, adding, “[He told me], ‘We watched that show when we were out in the middle of nowhere. If we survived our deployment, we’d get back to the camp, and we’d watch your show. We lost guys, and we’d come back and watch your show. Because to us, that felt like America. It gave us hope.”
The actor praised Gilmore Girls — and its lasting legacy.
“It doesn’t insult the intelligence of the audience,” he continued. “The audience has to come up to its level. It’s smart. It’s very, very funny … It operates best as a light comedy, and then at the end of an episode, you get a right hook to the head. It’s wonderfully unpredictable. It’s 50 to 60 great jokes per episode. Nobody’s doing it like that. Lorelai’s basically going through life as a stand-up comic and a really good one.”

Kathie Lee Gifford admits she 'wanted to die' amid 'debilitating' pain and surgery: 'Didn't want to be here'
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/Kathie-Lee-Gifford-063026-1-c72943975d8b4a9582ee890c6ac7cd38.jpg)
“I feel like Mr. Potato Head! One thing falls off and then another,” Gifford said in a new interview in which she revealed a hip replacement and cataract surgery.
In just a few months, Disney will be releasing its next animated feature, Hexed. Starring Hailee Steinfeld as Billie, the film follows this teenager who discovers she has magical abilities. When the trailer came out, fans claimed it was similar to The Owl House or other similar fantasy shows, but the filmmakers say those claims are far from the truth.
The trailer for Hexed came out last month, showing Billie getting expelled after an incident at school, only to discover she has a gift and can enter Hexed, a world full of witches. During her visit, she learns more about her abilities, meets new creatures, and is hinted at the possibility that she could be something more. One of the directors for Hexed is Fawn Veerasunthorn, who previously worked as a Story Artist on projects like Despicable Me 2, Zootopia, and Ralph Breaks the Internet, and served as the Head of Story for Raya and the Last Dragon. They’re working alongside her is Jason Hand, who previously directed Moana 2.
In an interview with Cartoon Brew, both filmmakers discussed Hexed, including how Chainsaw Man played a role in the movie’s production. They note that they wanted Billie to evoke the feeling of having the potential to become a witch and used subtle ways to showcase that without being too obvious. This is what they had to say:
Veerasunthorn: “When you look at Billie, we wanted to evoke the feeling that this girl has the potential to be a witch, but we didn’t want to be too on the nose about it, so we put little clues everywhere.”
Hand: “I have a 15-year-old son, and we were watching Chainsaw Man. They do all kinds of crazy things with the eyes that I felt like we could totally do, but in a much subtler way.”
Veerasunthorn: “Because this is an original film, we took it as an opportunity to think differently and get cartoonier.”
Hand: “Being cartoonier was a big thing we’ve been pushing across the board. The color in the production design is really insane, and so are the proportions of our characters.”
What Is ‘Chainsaw Man’?
Chainsaw Man is different from Hexed. It’s an anime series based on a 2018 manga of the same name by Tatsuki Fujimoto. It takes place in a world where the Soviet Union still exists, and devils are manifested through collective fears of humans. It follows Denji (Ryan Colt Levy), who makes a contract with Pochita, who gives him a second chance in life after a near-death experience; in exchange, he has to live a humble, ordinary life that he dreams of. He is then recruited to become a devil hunter for the Public Safety Division, led by Makima (Suzie Yeung), whose job is to hunt down Devils deemed a threat to the world.
Since its release, Chainsaw Man has received a 97% critics’ score and a 91% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, but its reception in the West differs from that of Japanese audiences. While the rest of the world enjoyed its action-packed scenes and storytelling, Japanese viewers claimed the anime did the source material a disservice through its animation and creative decisions.
Hexed is scheduled to enter theaters on November 25, 2026. In the meantime, you can watch Chainsaw Man on Crunchyroll. Follow Collider for more updates.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have a “whimsical” evening planned for friends and family when they reportedly tie the knot in New York City, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.
An insider says that the engaged couple have dreamt up a celebration inspired by fairytales, which have been a recurring theme in Swift’s music throughout the course of her career.
Reports emerged this week that Swift and Kelce, both 36, are having a grand castle and white staircase built as part of their wedding set inside of New York City’s Madison Square Garden, where the wedding is rumored to be taking place on Friday, July 3. Such an elaborate set would certainly fit in with a “whimsical” theme, in addition to tying into the castle imagery in Swift’s classic “Love Story” and “Blank Space” music videos.
As for the guests, the source shares that attendees still do not know exactly where the wedding is actually taking place, but have been instructed to be in New York City between July 2 and July 3 and that MSG will be used as a meeting place.

Prospective guests have been drip-fed hints that the ceremony will be the “ultimate surprise” but have no firm details at this stage, per the insider.
Swift has yet to be seen in New York City this week, though her groom-to-be was photographed on a jog in the city on Tuesday, June 30, per DeuxMoi.
Several of the couple’s friends — including Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran and Suki Waterhouse — have also been spotted in the New York City area in the days leading up to the expected nuptials. Kelce’s longtime stylist, Danielle Salzedo, also confirmed her arrival in NYC on Wednesday, July 1.
While speculation is running rife that Swift and Kelce will tie the knot sometime over the holiday weekend, the couple themselves have remained tight-lipped about their wedding plans thus far.
Swift announced her engagement to the Kansas City Chiefs star in August 2025 with a photo of Kelce proposing on one knee and a sweet Instagram caption from the singer. (Kelce popped the question immediately after Swift recorded an episode of his “New Heights” podcast.)
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” she joked.
During an appearance on The Graham Norton Show in October 2025, Swift said that her fiancé “crushed” his proposal.
“He really crushed it in surprising me. While we were talking on his podcast, he had a complete garden built out the back of his house to propose in,” she recalled. “He went all out — 10 out of 10.”
In that same interview, Swift said that she planned to focus on wedding planning once the promotion cycle for her October 2025 album The Life of a Showgirl was finished. (The Life of a Showgirl sold more than 4 million albums in its first week of release, giving Swift a record-breaking 15th number-one album on the Billboard 200 chart.)
“I think the wedding is what happens after [my Life of a Showgirl promotional tour] in the scheme of the planning, but I’m so excited about it,” Swift teased. “I know it’s gonna be fun to plan because I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount and people are on the bubble.”
Love Island USA‘s Jen Terry has surprised audiences with how candid she has been about her personal life.
Love Island USA originally premiered in the U.K. in 2002 before it expanded worldwide with various spinoffs, including Love Island USA on Peacock. The series follows a different group of singles every season who have to pair off in order to stay in the show’s luxury villa.
The contestants — referred to as Islanders — live in isolation in a villa and are under constant video surveillance. They must be coupled up to remain on the show and stand a chance at receiving the $100,000 prize.
While finding a connection that you want to explore more intimately isn’t out of the question, season 7 of Love Island USA seemed to set some sort of record with the amount of times Islanders were caught hooking up — until season 8 that is.
Jen was introduced as a bombshell in 2026 and it didn’t take long for her to form multiple connections. Keep scrolling to see her most surprising confessions about her personal life:
Past Sexual Activity
During a June episode of the hit Peacock series, Jen was asked about the most surprising place where she had sex. She needed a moment to remember but Jen ultimately chose “a boat in Miami” as her most memorable encounter.
Her Experience Outside the Villa
After her match Gabriel Vasconcelos was dumped from the villa, Jen spoke about their connection, sharing on a June episode, “We have been having fun with each other. But I have also in those same moments of liking him, I have been feeling lusted over.”
Jen found that to be a regular occurrence for her.
“Every guy does that to me my whole entire life,” she added. “All men are always like, ‘You are so hot, let me touch you.’ Obviously that feels good but at the same time I want more.”
Having Self Confidence
Jen admitted she struggled when guys in the villa didn’t show interest in her.
“I know that I am gorgeous and stunning but here — besides when I was with Gabe — I felt like, ‘Am I hideous?’” she said in a June episode. “Is there something wrong with me? Does my personality suck?”
She continued: “Normally I am used to guys drooling over me. Here it has been so hard.”
Love Island USA is all about coupling up — so which Islanders are currently together and which have already called it quits in the villa? Peacock’s popular dating show returned in June 2026 with contestants Aniya Harvey, Beatriz Hatz, Bryce Alakai Dettloff, KC Chandler, Mackenzie “Kenzie” Annis, Melanie Moreno, Sincere Rhea, Sean Reifel, Trinity Tatum […]
Getting Creative
After a cake-themed challenge involved each Islander having to twerk, Jen admitted she was a bit nervous to shake her booty.
“It’s a cute, tiny butt,” she explained of her backside in a confessional. “It’s not a big twerking butt.”
Jen had a different idea of what she could offer, adding, “I will shake my boobs for you but not my ass.”
Expecting Compliments
Jen took issue when Gal Tshnieder didn’t compliment her enough.
“I think you’re so attractive and I love talking to you. We get along but I don’t think we have sexual compatibility,” she told Gal during a June episode of the show.
Jen admitted she was questioning their connection, adding, “I just feel like you don’t like me and you don’t compliment me. I don’t remember one compliment you’ve said to me — and I feel like I would have at least had one in my head. The fact that I have none is alarming to me.”
She continued: “You have girls in here that you would like to get to know. So it kind of does make me feel like a second option.”
Superhero movies are so common these days that comic book characters you’ve never heard of still get their moment on the movie theater marquee. But when we think of the best of the genre, we keep coming back to the huge names: the Avengers, Superman, Spider-Man, and Batman. And out of all of those films, popular opinion says that Christopher Nolan‘s The Dark Knight is the greatest superhero film ever made.
What Christian Bale and Heath Ledger pulled off in 2008 was certainly iconic. But sorry to the Caped Crusader: the best superhero movie is still one that came before it. Because in 2004, Sam Raimi changed the direction of superhero movies forever with Spider-Man 2, a film that brought us a stand-out supporting cast, jaw-dropping action sequences, and a deep exploration of its hero’s mind. To say that Spider-Man 2 is better than The Dark Knight is not to argue that the latter doesn’t deserve all the accolades it gets. Instead, calling Spider-Man 2 the greatest superhero movie is to recognize that it takes a very special film to even be compared to Nolan’s masterpiece — and that its breakthroughs are part of what made The Dark Knight possible.
Peter Parker Is a More Compelling Character Than Bruce Wayne
Part of what elevates Spider-Man 2 over The Dark Knight is its main character. As fantastic as Christian Bale’s Bruce Wayne is, Tobey Maguire‘s Peter Parker is superior. Some of this is inherent in the character: Bruce Wayne is purposefully limited, holding his emotions in for the most part. He wears the part of a billionaire as his costume. It’s only when he puts on the cape that he becomes his true self.
That’s not so with Peter Parker. Alvin Sargent‘s script for Spider-Man 2 gives us a deeply sympathetic look at the kid behind the mask. By now, Parker has his role as a hero all figured out; in this film, he learns that he must live with the cost. Not only did he lose his Uncle Ben, but people have been hurt and killed because of his powers and how he chose to use them. In the first film, Norman Osborn (Willem Dafoe) died. Now, his son, Harry (James Franco), is simultaneously Parker’s best friend while also seething with hatred towards Spider-Man. Peter must carry that weight, along with the knowledge of how often he is putting Mary Jane’s (Kirsten Dunst) life on the line.
Batman is the epitome of dark cool. Spider-Man is relatable precisely because he is not cool; rather, he is an everyman who is either blessed or cursed with a gift. No matter how many good things he does, the weight of responsibility and its repercussions is almost too much to carry.
‘Spider-Man 2’ Is Carried By Its Stellar Supporting Cast
While Tobey Maguire is excellent as Peter Parker, his successes wouldn’t matter if he doesn’t have a great cast of characters to interact with. Rosemary Harris‘ May Parker is the soul of the family, keeping Peter grounded when everything feels like it’s coming undone. And this time around, everything in his relationship with MJ is turned up a notch. Their relationship is now much more than awe, mystery, and upside-down kisses in the rain; in Spider-Man 2, fantasy meets reality. Mary Jane wants to be with Peter, which he wants more than anything. However, his fear of her getting hurt because of who he is leads him to push her away, straight into the arms of John Jameson (Daniel Gillies). We know Peter and MJ will eventually be together, but the film makes our two leads earn it, resulting in the stunning, third act reveal of Peter’s secret identity in front of Mary Jane. Romantic subplots are often afterthoughts in superhero movies but Spider-Man 2 does its love story splendidly well.
And no great superhero can exist without a great villain. Spider-Man 2, like The Dark Knight, has two. No one can compare with the genius of Heath Ledger’s Joker, but Sam Raimi’s well-written baddies were a refreshing one-two punch in a time when villains were often one-note tropes. The audience can understand both their motivations. Of course, Norman Osborn brought his demise on himself, but still, what son wouldn’t defend his father? Seeing only the good in his dad is how Harry Osborn grieves. He’s tormented by a deep pain that brings out the worst in him.
Even better is Alfred Molina as Otto Octavius, a good man and scientist turned tragic villain Dr. Octopus. Whereas there is no curing the Joker, Doc Ock is a bad guy who is intimidating while also being sympathetic, who eventually comes to his senses and tries to help. This all comes together to make Spider-Man 2 a deeply human story where the action is secondary to the emotional performances.
‘Spider-Man 2’ Is the Perfect Blend of Action and Emotion
Despite its emphasis on character development, Spider-Man 2 does not get lazy with its action sequences. In fact, Spider-Man 2 is one jaw-dropping action scene after another. But while they show off inventive set design and gasp-inducing fight choreography, what gives them all their power is the emotion behind them.
Spider-Man 2‘s train scene, which is perhaps its most famous sequence, is a prime example of this. Raimi’s direction and Danny Elfman‘s score blend together in a moment that spotlights exactly how hard Peter Parker will fight to save the innocent — he’ll damn near rip himself in half for the people of New York City. And he does it all unmasked, his identity exposed. Afterward, when he collapses, Spider-Man 2 delivers its most powerful scene, as the citizens carefully move his body to safety, in a show of connection. They don’t want to reveal his identity; they see this superhero as a person and are thankful. Three years after 9/11, the idea of community in the Big Apple was a tearjerker. 22 years later, it still gets the waterworks going.
Spider-Man 2 was a revelation when it was released. Before it, outside of a few examples like Blade and X-Men, comic book movies were looked down on. They were for kids and no one else. In his perfect four-star review, Roger Ebert wrote that Spider-Man 2 is “a superhero movie for people who don’t go to superhero movies, and for those who do, it’s the one they’ve been yearning for.” It’s the starting point for everything that came after. Two decades later, it’s the benchmark, the one that changed everything.

Frankie Muniz and his wife, Paige Price Muniz, announced that they are ending their marriage after seven years. While the news came as a surprise to many fans, some focused on how the actor chose to share the update.
Some online users criticized the “Malcolm in the Middle” star for the video that accompanied the announcement, in which he was seen joyfully dancing with Paige and their young son. Paige has responded to the public criticism, noting how cruel people can be while defending Muniz’s post.
On July 1, actor and professional racing driver Frankie Muniz took to social media to share an update about his personal life. Muniz said that after a period of separation from his wife, Paige Price Muniz, they have decided to push forward with a divorce.
Muniz posted a video of himself and Paige dancing enthusiastically to the lively song “Check Yes, Juliet” by We The Kings. Midway through the video, their son runs in to join the dance party.
Critics commented on the video, with some saying that it was “in poor taste.” Others criticized the couple for “celebrating” their divorce. “Divorce with children should never be celebrated,” one said. Another noted, “Hardly a reason to celebrate when there are children involved.”
Later, Muniz deleted the video from the divorce announcement and changed it to a family photo.
Paige Price Defended The Video
In the comments section of Muniz’s post, Paige acknowledged the critics while addressing her estranged husband. “Frankie, I am so sorry that you felt the need to delete an old fun video of our family because people are so cruel to you,” she wrote.
Paige defended the video, saying they were not excited about getting a divorce. “This world is so f-cked… divorce is bad, sure – it’s not like we’re excited about it… but we’re two adults who know how to be on the same team,” she continued.
One user responded to Paige, saying that she could have just said her response directly to Muniz and not on a public platform. Paige responded, “I did say it to his face. 1000 times. And I’ll say it through text just as much because I genuinely care. That’s the point.”
Frankie Muniz’s Post Sparked A Debate
Many weighed in on their thoughts about Muniz’s post. While some criticized the ex-couple for how they chose to announce their divorce, others came to their defense.
One opined that the video of them dancing is in poor taste. “Kids will figure out they hate each other at some point and realize his parents lied and made some stupid video to f-ck with him.” Another commented, “This is weird and should not be normalized. Hollyweird.”
Some clapped back at the haters, with one noting that Muniz and Paige weren’t celebrating their divorce. “He was celebrating their time together, still being friends and co-parents.” “What I can see is the child is happy and that’s what’s important. Nothing about this says he’s celebrating breaking up his family,” another person wrote.
The Ex-Couple Were Together For 10 Years
Muniz and Paige met sometime in 2016 at a golf event and began dating. Two years later, the couple was engaged, and they eloped in October 2019. They had a bigger wedding ceremony in February 2020.
As Muniz told PEOPLE, the wedding was planned in just 10 days, and they invited only 40 of their closest family and friends for the intimate celebration. “It turned out better that we could have imagined,” the actor said.
Paige gave birth to their son, Mauz Mosley Muniz, in March 2021. The couple shared the announcement on social media, with Muniz writing, “Honestly, I didn’t know it was possible to love anything as much as I love him.”
Frankie Muniz And Paige Price Are Parting Amicably
Muniz and Paige’s divorce seems to be amicable. In his announcement post, the racing driver was all praise for his ex and highlighted the sacrifices she made for their family, adding that he’s “endlessly grateful” to her.
“She put her own dreams on hold so I could chase mine, and she was always my biggest supporter. That foundation of respect and friendship isn’t going anywhere,” Muniz shared, writing that they both realized they were better off as friends.
In addition, the actor said that their 5-year-old son will be their main focus moving forward as co-parents. “We’re closing one chapter with gratitude and opening the next with bright futures ahead, for us as individuals and especially for our son,” Muniz wrote.
