Bold and the Beautiful fans, we have got some new info about Miss Dylan (Sydney Bullock) coming straight from a new interview with actress Sydney Bullock where she hinted she could be the new Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).

We’ll get into exactly what Sydney said and what that means for her character storylines. It’s We’re going to talk about how Dylan might soon take a page out of Steffy’s playbook to get what she wants.

Bold and the Beautiful: Sydney Bullock Drops Hint

Now, let’s talk about what we can expect to see from Dylan. So recently, Sydney Bullock was on a podcast and she was talking about her character. And in the interview, the Dylan actress said that she is currently watching season 24 of Bold and the Beautiful because she had a meeting with headwriter Brad Bell.

And he mentioned that there’s a character in season 24 similar to the character of Dylan, or rather a character in season 24 that’s similar to what Dylan is going to grow into. So, Sydney Bullock said she wanted to do her research. That’s why she’s watching season 24 because Brad Bell pointed her to it.

So, I just took a look back at what happened in season 24 because it’s been a minute, right? So, there was a lot that went on. A lot of it to do with Steffy versus Hope Logan (Annika Noelle). That was in the early stages of the love triangle with those two fighting over Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton).

And given what’s going on now with Dylan, that makes perfect sense. But the big question is whether Brad Bell is going to be writing Dylan as the Hope character or the Steffy character because clearly this is a brand new love triangle. And Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) obviously would be the new Liam Spencer in this three-way dynamic.

Bold and Beautiful: Dylan Following Steffy’s Playbook

Back in season 24, Steffy was pushing hard to get Liam, who was in love with somebody else. He was in love with Hope. And we’re getting those vibes right now with Will insisting he’s still in love with Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace). And Dylan is doing all she can to make Will her man. So, back in season 24, that was 2010, 2011, and it was fresh off Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) choosing Katie Logan (Heather Tom) over Steffy, and she was crushed.

Then she slipped in her bathtub, she fell, she hit her head, she almost drowned, but Liam found her and gave her CPR and saved her life. And at the time, Liam was very much with Hope. But I think at that point, they hadn’t slept together yet. But after Liam saved her, then Steffy developed a deep attraction to Liam. Think about that in terms of Will and Dylan. When she was homeless, Will rescued her. And this week, Dylan told both Jessica and Electra that Will literally saved her.

Bold and the Beautiful: Bill Plots with Dylan?

After Liam saved Steffy and she decided to pursue him, that’s when it really intensified and started building that long-running rivalry with Hope. And then later that year, Steffy seduced Liam and Hope caught them kissing and she left her engagement ring behind. And then with Liam on the rebound, he proposed to Steffy.

That was when Liam and Steffy got married in Aspen while a distraught Hope watched while locked in a gondola. If you don’t remember, Bill was plotting with Steffy and he helped trap Hope to keep her away so that Steffy could marry Liam. So, she was stuck up there and Hope had to watch them get married from above.

Now, this is pretty interesting because I could totally see Bill getting involved with Dylan, who is trying to win Will the same way that happened with Steffy and Liam. But back in the day, Bill thought Steffy would be better for Liam than prudish Hope.

And now, I can see Bill wanting Dylan with Will. We’ve seen Bill say that Will needs to move on. He doesn’t like what Electra put Will through with all the nonsense, saying he was lying about work secrets. However, that will put Bill at odds with Katie, who told Will not to give up on Electra. I honestly thought it was not good advice from Katie.

Dylan’s Transformation and Sabotage on B&B

Back in season 24, this was the hard launch for the long-running Steffy, Liam, and Hope triangle that has mercifully finally ended after going on for way too long. And this was the same season, if I recall correctly, where Steffy sabotaged Hope at a Hope for the Future fashion show.

Steffy tampered with the sign so it read ho for the future. It was funny but mean. Given that Electra’s got a jewelry line that does launches, we could see Dylan getting really mischievous and tampering with an Electra jewelry launch to make Electra look bad or embarrass her the same way that Steffy did to Hope.

And it sounds like based on what actress Sydney said, we could see Brad Bell taking Dylan in the same direction he took Steffy because based on season 24, she doesn’t fit the mold of where Hope was. So that would be kind of wild because Dylan started out really sweet, really genuine. Even now, she truly cares about Will and wants what’s best for him.

Meanwhile, Electra to me feels more like Steffy at this point because Electra is bullying Dylan and Electra is bossing her around again, telling her what she can and can’t do, can and can’t date. And that sounds much more like what Steffy did with Hope back in the day and all the way until now. But Brad Bell does what he wants. So, you know, I think he’s taking Dylan in that Steffy direction.

Bold and the Beautiful: Dylan’s Getting Tougher

And we’re already seeing a change in Dylan. When Electra told her that she can’t date Will, she didn’t just roll over and take it. Dylan really stood up to Electra and she reminded her she’s the one who made this choice. She dumped Will more than once. And Dylan also reminded her a couple of days ago, Electra told Will she’ll never be with him again.

So Dylan made the valid point that if Electra and Will are never going to be together, why should Dylan sit this out? Why should she miss out on a chance to be with Will, a guy that she really likes?

And Dylan reminded Electra she has her own history with Will. And Dylan showed a whole lot of sass and that could foreshadow some Steffy 2.0 sort of attitude where Dylan’s ready to fight, maybe even ready to fight dirty.

Electra was super mad. Tried to pull the whole sisters before misters card. Then told Dylan that she and Will took her in. That’s not true. Electra didn’t live with Will and that wasn’t her house. And Electra wasn’t the one that offered to let Dylan stay there. That was all Will’s doing.

And before Dylan even unpacked one sock in the room above his garage, Electra was up there being a nasty bully. She terrorized Dylan and threatened to put her back on the streets if Electra felt like Dylan put one foot out of line. So, after this showdown, when Electra called Dylan the B-word, I think all bets are off.

Katie’s Advice and Electra’s Ultimatums on B&B

Problem is, just as Will realized he needed to find a way to let Electra go, his mom Katie came in with that terrible advice. I don’t know what’s the point of her telling Will to chase Electra because that girl will never make Will her priority. She will always try and run his life and Electra expects him to violate his loyalty to his family for her in ways that make no sense.

She’s never shown Will a moment of grace and always thinks the worst of Will in every situation. But Katie encouraged Will. So by the end of this week, he goes to see Electra and Will’s asking for them to reunite. But I’m sure Electra won’t get back with him because of Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) and Eric Forrester (John McCook) and R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) pressuring her about who she can date.

And I do wonder if Electra tries to tell Will that he cannot date Dylan. So Electra may try and pull some of that ultimatum stuff she likes to do. She didn’t get anywhere with Dylan, so she might try it with Will. I’m pretty excited about this if they’re going to make Dylan more devilish like Steffy was back in the day. So, definitely sounds to me like Dylan, Will, and Electra are the new Steffy, Liam, and Hope. And maybe R.J. is supposed to be the new Wyatt Spencer (Darin Brooks). We’ll see.

Influencer Jen Hamilton admitted that there are still some questions left unanswered about her estranged husband Brian Hamilton’s “double life” – a discovery that ultimately led to the couple’s split.

“Me, now? Me, big, strong girl. Okay? Me, independent girl. Me, ‘don’t need no man’ girl. Me, ‘get out of bad relationship’ girl. But I feel like I need to get out ahead of something,” Jen, 35, told Instagram followers on Wednesday, July 29. “If anything comes out about other things this guy’s done in my marriage, just listen. Me, now? Me, big, strong girl. Me, independent girl. Me, back then? Me, insecure girl. Me, desperate girl.”

The Birth Vibes: Stories and Strategies for an Empowered Birth author announced in June that she and Brian had separated after “15 years of shared history.” She has since accused Brian of living “a double life with a woman who was 56 years old.” (Brian has not responded to Jen’s accusations.)

“Yes, he had a double life with a woman who was 56 years old. Yes, I should have left him way earlier — giving myself grace,” Jen told Instagram followers on Monday, July 27. “I am so fortunate to have the means and resources to leave a bad relationship. There are so many women who are unable to do so, whether from finances, resources, etc.”

In her latest video, Jen acknowledged that there may be aspects of Brian’s alleged “double life” that she isn’t even aware of yet.

“I needed me, now, back then,” she said. “The thing is, I know some stuff, but, girl, I guarantee you I don’t know everything. And the stuff I do know, I’m embarrassed about.”

Offering advice to anyone feeling “desperate” and “insecure,” Jen suggested, “You can borrow some of my not scaredness. I needed me, now, then, because baby, it does not get better. Do you hear me? It does not get better. It gets sneakier.”

“I wish to God that I could say I was strong enough to leave at the first situation. Nah,” she conceded. “But, looking back, I don’t regret loving him as much as I did. Because I love really hard and I don’t want that to change about me. I don’t regret seeing the best in him because I try to see the best in everybody. But, for me, it had to be this bad. It had to be this bad because I love that man so much.”

In the wake of her split, Jen launched a signature fashion line Sisterhood of Solidarity, where “100 percent of the proceeds will go to charities that help women rebuild their lives.” The brand features T-shirts and other apparel with “girl power” slogans such as “I Survived,” “Choosing Myself Today,” and “G.Y.A.U. (Get Your Ass Up).” (Jen is also donating proceeds from all merchandise sold on her website to women’s charities through the end of August.)

The influencer confirmed earlier this week that she has no intention of dropping Hamilton as her last name, arguing that it has become synonymous with her brand and advocacy.

“It’s my name now,” she insisted via Instagram on Monday. “I made this name special and I’m gonna keep it.”

Jen and Brian got married in August 2012 and share two sons, Ellis and Luke.

Young and the Restless delivers Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) running into an upset Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway). This is fresh off him bickering with his mom, Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford). We saw Daniel storm out of the GCAC and he went over to Society where he ran into Abby.

And Daniel says that Abby looks like she could use a friend and he asks if he’ll do. Now, we know that she’s struggling with her hubby Devon Hamilton Winters’ (Bryton James) anger issues. However, Daniel may do more harm than good.

Young and the Restless: Devon Overcome with Anger

So, Devon’s really struggling with these anger issues. Has been for a while. And this week, he tells his sister Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) that he thinks something is wrong with him. And of course, it all started when Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) kidnapped Dominic Chancellor Winters (Ethan Ray Clark). Because before that, Devon was pretty much fine. And now he’s angry that his friend Mariah stole his son.

And more so, Devon is really angry with himself for not being there and not being able to protect Dominic from Mariah. And this anger is consuming him. AWe saw Devon trying to get Mariah’s plea deal tossed out because he wanted her in jail instead of getting help for her issues. Everybody else in Genoa City knew that Mariah was in a mental health crisis and needed help, not incarceration.

Abby didn’t want Mariah in prison and she was upset when Devon went behind her back to the DA trying to get Mariah yanked from the mental hospital and tossed behind bars. And since then, Devon’s anger is just burning him up. It’s ruining all his relationships and he’s burning bridges. He’s lashing out at so many people. And one of his main targets for aggression is Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn).

Devon Afraid for Lily on Y&R

Not only has Lily let Cane back in her life, but she’s also accepting her brother Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) into her life. And Devon’s been on fire about that. He is berating Lily and Cane because Lily made Cane the CEO of Chancellor and Devon has threatened Holden more than once. Now granted, as her brother, Devon’s worried that Lily is going to be hurt by both of these guys.

So, Devon may be working overtime to protect Lily because he couldn’t protect Dominic. So he’s doing the wrong thing for the right reasons. But Devon is angry and lashing out and it’s causing problems in his marriage to Abby because Devon won’t talk to her about any of this. Abby even tried to get her mom Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) to get through to Devon. And she tried but she didn’t make much progress with him.

Plus Abby told Devon it makes her sad that he won’t open up to her but he says he just can’t explain his feelings. So, Abby and Dominic are both feeling like Devon’s angry with them. And even though he told Abby that’s not true, he’s hurting them. Devon is causing Abby a lot of pain. She feels like he’s shutting her out. And this week, Devon and Abby have a tense conversation. And then Devon left annoyed. And that’s when Daniel strolls into Society and he sees Abby crying.

Young and Restless: Daniel’s Interference and Historical Parallels

And she explains to Daniel what’s going on with Devon. And Daniel’s encouraging Abby to love Devon and be there when he’s ready to talk. It all sounds nice, but it didn’t stop there. Daniel offered a distraction and asked Abby to go to Noah Newman’s (Lucas Adams) Shadow Room club with him. So Abby turned Daniel down, but he didn’t give up. And when he asked again, Abby seems to be considering going. So, I’m wondering if we’re going to get another plot with Daniel interfering with another marriage. It’s starting to feel like it did when Mariah and Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) were first having marriage problems.

And we saw Daniel offering advice and friendship to Tessa when Mariah was deep in her mental health struggle and pushed Tessa away. Back then, Mariah wouldn’t talk to her wife Tessa or tell her what was going on. And that’s pretty much what’s going on with Devon and Abby. Because Tessa was upset because Mariah was shutting her out. And Abby’s upset that Devon is shutting her out. And with both women, Daniel offered friendship. And with Tessa, it wound up turning into real feelings and them sleeping together. And Mariah could see what was happening between Daniel and Tessa. And I think that’s part of why Mariah took off because she thought Tessa would have Daniel to watch out for her.

Another Recycled Plot on Y&R

So, it feels like history repeating itself now with Daniel and Abby. And at this point, I think the writing is just being lazy and is repeating plots. Josh Griffith has been replaced. And by the way, great news. Young and the Restless confirmed they finally hired new headwriters. He has been replaced by Jamie Giddens and a co-writer. So, Jamie is daytime Emmy nominated for both Days of Our Lives and Beyond the Gates.

And he’ll be co-writing with Dan O’Connor who wrote at GH and also at Days. Jamie and Dan are supposed to get to work next week. So, if the soap gods are smiling on us in six to eight weeks or so, maybe that’s when we’re done with the bad repetitive writing. In the meantime, this Daniel and Abby thing may be moving forward as yet another repeated plot. So, maybe the current writing is doing the same thing with Daniel again.

Having him interfere in a troubled marriage because they don’t know what to do with the character. He nearly ruined Mariah and Tessa’s marriage. And Mariah’s back this week. No word if Tessa is with her. And now we have another troubled marriage and Daniel’s offering Abby a shoulder to cry on. Talking to her at Society. That’s fine. Asking her to go to Noah’s club with him. Not so fine. I feel like that’s a huge red flag of where Y&R might be going.

Young and the Restless: Devon Getting Bit by Karma?

Daniel has been off the grid for a while. We see him occasionally showing up to tell his mom, Phyllis, that she’s bad and he doesn’t forgive her. Other than that, he’s not around. Now, he’s back and supposedly trying to help Abby. And at the moment, yeah, Daniel’s being nice. But Devon’s been a jerk and he admits it this week.

But the question is, has he been such a jerk that he deserves to be cheated on by Abby and Daniel? I say to that maybe, maybe because it would kind of be karma biting Devon’s butt. They say how you get somebody is how you lose them. And Devon was cheating with Abby when she was married to Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) and Devon was with Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan).

Young and Restless: Hopes for Healing and Change

They walked in on them doing the deed. And by the way, I did reiterate this in the early weekly spoilers. The sofa that Lily was sleeping with Cane on is not the same sofa that Devon was cheating on. They did change out the couch, so yay. But it would be a taste of Devon’s own medicine if Abby cheated on him and hooked up with Daniel. But I don’t think anybody wants to see Abby and Devon’s marriage destroyed. Nobody in the fandom that I’ve seen. And it would be nice to see something different rather than a recycled plot.

But Mariah comes back this week and she may be the perfect person to help Devon through his anger issues because she caused them for the most part. And even though Mariah and Devon had that one talk in the mental hospital, they are overdue for more conversations now that Mariah’s head is on straight. And I think they really need to hash things out. And Devon needs to tell Mariah everything he’s feeling. And maybe if Devon can say it out loud to Mariah, then he can say it out loud to Abby.

So, if Mariah can help him, hopefully Devon can heal with Abby before Daniel comes between them. And I’m sure at this point he doesn’t have the intention of ruining Abby’s marriage, but you could say the same thing about Mariah’s marriage. Daniel didn’t get friendly with Tessa with that intent, but it happened anyway. So, we’ll see how it goes, but Devon should stop focusing on Cane and Holden and instead keep a closer eye on Daniel and his wife.

Jason Kelce is joking that he may have some explaining to do at home after making a surprisingly candid confession about his brother Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift‘s lavish wedding.

The retired NFL star admitted that the emotional July 3 ceremony affected him even more than his own wedding to wife Kylie Kelce, joking that she “probably” won’t appreciate hearing the comparison.

His comments come weeks after he praised the star-studded celebration as one of the most unforgettable events he has ever attended.

During an appearance on SportsRadio 94WIP, Jason didn’t hesitate when asked whether he cried during Travis and Taylor’s wedding at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.

“I mean, you know this guys. I’m a crier,” he laughed. “I’ve been on this station multiple times on camera. I am a crier.”

The former Philadelphia Eagles center then made the confession that instantly grabbed headlines.

“I did cry. I probably cried more this wedding than I cried at my own wedding, which probably is not acceptable,” Jason joked before adding, “Kylie is probably not happy about that.”

Jason has never hidden his emotional side, often tearing up while discussing football, family, or his daughters. But even he admitted the wedding struck an unexpected emotional chord.

Jason Kelce Says Adam Sandler Made The Ceremony Even More Special

One of the biggest surprises of the celebration was Adam Sandler serving as the wedding officiant, something Jason believes couldn’t have worked out better.

Calling the actor one of the highlights of the day, Jason praised Sandler’s ability to balance comedy with heartfelt emotion.

“I think he’s probably the perfect person you could have officiate a wedding,” Jason said. “Obviously he’s hilarious and he knows how to make it entertaining and funny. But there’s a sweetness to Adam and everything he does… that really resonated throughout.”

Travis and Swift’s wedding blended Hollywood, sports, and music royalty into one of the year’s most talked-about celebrity events.

Jason also had a deeply personal role in the ceremony, serving as his younger brother’s best man, while his and Kylie’s four daughters, Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett, and Finnley, were among the flower girls.

The combination of family traditions and celebrity spectacle made the day unlike anything he had previously experienced.

Jason Kelce Reveals The Wildest Part Of Travis And Taylor’s Big Day

Although countless A-list celebrities attended the wedding, Jason said one moment perfectly summed up just how surreal the guest list really was.

One minute he found himself chatting with Brad Pitt.

The next, he was catching up with Mrs. Clark, the attendance secretary from Cleveland Heights High School, who jokingly reminded him about the time he unsuccessfully tried pretending to be his father, Ed Kelce, while calling in sick.

For Jason, those unexpected interactions became some of his favorite memories from the celebration.

“My favorite moments were just like the different people that are at this wedding,” he explained.

The reception itself also proved to be a memorable night.

As The Blast previously reported, Jason admitted he consumed “way over” 15 beers during the festivities, another candid detail that quickly caught fans’ attention online.

Jason Is Still Amazed By One Wedding Mystery

Despite nearly 1,000 guests reportedly attending the ceremony, Jason Kelce remains stunned that almost no authentic wedding photos have surfaced online.

During the interview, he admitted he expected images to flood social media almost immediately. Instead, very little escaped the venue.

Jason credited both Travis and Swift, along with their teams and guests, for protecting one of the biggest celebrity events of the year from widespread leaks.

He even rated the entire experience “more than a 10 out of 10,” saying the wedding somehow managed to feel intimate despite the enormous guest list.

That balance, he explained, was what impressed him most.

Rather than feeling like a Hollywood spectacle, the wedding remained centered on the couple and the people closest to them.

Jason Couldn’t Be Happier For His Brother

3

While Jason Kelce’s emotional confession generated plenty of laughs because of his comparison to his own wedding, it also showed the close bond he shares with Travis.

Over the years, the Kelce brothers have become one of sports’ most beloved sibling duos, first through their NFL careers and later through their wildly successful podcast and countless public appearances together.

Seeing Travis marry Taylor Swift marked another milestone in that journey, making the celebration especially meaningful for Jason and the entire Kelce family.

Even if Jason’s playful confession earns him a few jokes from Kylie at home, it’s clear he wouldn’t change a thing. After all, as he happily admitted, he’s always been a crier.

Days of Our Lives stuns as EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) needs to stay one step ahead of the authorities because they’re coming for him. If he’s not careful, he may be trading his fancy high thread count sheets and California king bed for a Statesville metal bunk and denim inmate duds in the near future.

Days of Our Lives: Susan Worried About EJ

All right, let’s dive in. This week, EJ’s mom, colorfully dressed psychic Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk), dropped in for a visit, and she immediately sensed evil in the room. So, she scolded EJ. And Susan reminded her son that EJ is not a monster like his late father, Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo). And Susan hates seeing Stefano’s ring on EJ’s finger. So, Susan took it and detoxed the Phoenix ring and gave it back to EJ after it had been purified.

But Susan is too late in her warning to EJ because as Susan would say, he has been mean, mean, mean for very many months. And let’s face it, EJ’s done a lot of unscrupulous things since he came back to Salem. Even before that, Stefano’s heir EJ did bad things. Even before Clyde Weston (James Read) had his goon shooting EJ and he was presumed dead. And then we got the recast with Dan Feuerriegel. And even EJ getting killed for his horrible life choices didn’t change who he is. Didn’t reform him at all. He’s still a light like his dark phoenix dad. But let’s back it up a little bit.

EJ’s Web of Crimes Unravels on DOOL

So, EJ helped Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) pull off kidnapping her cheating, filthy rich, now ex-husband Dimitri von Leuschner (Peter Porte). And EJ agreed to help Gwen in exchange for a big investment to help him buy the hospital and build the secret lab. And she funded Dr. Wilhelm Rolf’s (Richard Wharton) experiments with his serum mixed with a special compound.

Gwen and EJ were hoping to make billions with a patent on the serum as a sepsis treatment and maybe even more billions from the black market sales of Rolf’s new and improved resurrection drug. However, the drug didn’t work out and then EJ double crossed her. And as much as it angered Gwen, she did have a backup plan to purchase the hospital herself with her big fat divorce settlement.

And her revenge plan against EJ was going great because the state hospital board censured EJ for his unethical doings. It’s not a good look to conduct human experiments without FDA approval. And of course, Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) was happy to tell EJ that he’s out and Gwen is in as the new buyer and hospital owner.

Days of Our Lives: EJ Devastated

Plus, EJ’s facing anguish as his sister, Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford), is paying the price for Rolf’s faulty serum. Lexie’s miracle resurrection after being presumed dead for 15 years is about to end in tragedy. So, it was Stefano’s wish for her to be brought back, and EJ wanted that, too. But now, Lexie’s furious that EJ brought her back without knowing if the drug was truly effective.

So, Lexie begged Rolf to help again before he slunk out of Salem. He gave her one shot of Miracle Serum that helped Lexie for a couple of days, but then she had more symptoms. And the next shot didn’t make a dent. Now Rolf is MIA. And Lexie is collapsing and nearly out of time.

Now, I’m sure EJ probably knows where mad scientist Rolf ran off to, but they won’t drag him back. And Lexie’s looming death could bring criminal charges against EJ. I wouldn’t be surprised also if Abe Carver (James Reynolds) sues his brother-in-law in civil court. Also, the initial experiment was on someone who was presumed dead.

EJ in Trouble on DOOL

So, they kind of let it slide because worst case he was, you know, desecrating a corpse. They could justify it that way. But with Lexie being resurrected and then dying as a result of this experimental treatment, that changes things. And we know it is definite that Abe’s wife dies soon.

Currently, FBI hunk Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) and ISA agent partner Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) are investigating EJ for these hospital crimes. And in fact, Gwen’s disappearance and Cat stealing the dead man switch confession letter from Melinda Trask’s (Tina Huang) office gave her and Rafe the puzzle piece they were missing.

Because Cat and Rafe have been trying to figure out who was EJ’s investor and now they’re looking into who took Gwen. So Rafe marched over to the mansion because EJ is the prime suspect in Gwen going missing. But I think it’s going to end up Dimitri, who’s the kidnapper, and took Gwen for revenge since the cops wouldn’t arrest her or EJ for Dimitri’s kidnapping.

Days of Our Lives: Kristen’s Kidnapping and Multiple Investigations

So, one good thing is EJ could be off the hook and not facing charges in Gwen’s case, but he’ll still be a suspect. And speaking of kidnapping, EJ is doing more of that this week. He’s going to have a henchman snatch up his other sister, Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk), toss her in a storage container, and ship her off to the island.

EJ is livid that Kristen got Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) to try and kill Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), and then Kristen was cozying up to his daughter Sydney, inviting her to attend fashion week in Paris. That was what tipped EJ over into a rage because as far as he knows, Kristen was going to try and murder his daughter Sydney like she tried with his son Johnny.

But then Lexie overheard EJ and someone talking about having Kristen kidnapped and shipped to the island. So Lexie ratted out EJ and told Kristen what he’s planning. And Lexie was talked into this by Kristen that she would take her place in the container and she could go die in peace on the island. But it looks like Lexie and Kristen’s plan is thwarted on Days of our Lives.

Something Goes Wrong on DOOL

Maybe Lexie’s big Christmas in July celebration runs longer than expected, or EJ accelerates her plan and has the henchman snatch Kristen sooner than expected. Or Lexie collapses and she can’t even think to go meet her. Either way, the kidnapping happens. EJ is going to succeed in removing Kristen from Salem because he wants to protect his kids.

And we could see Lexie confessing to her family about the plan she made with Kristen. So, it’s possible EJ could face kidnapping charges for Kristen. You know, with Lexie on her deathbed soon and angry at EJ, she might tell the cops what he did so that they can go save Kristen from him.

Days of Our Lives: EJ lies Through His Teeth

Now, of course, EJ will deny it if the cops come knocking. And unless there are witnesses that saw Kristen taken, I feel like EJ can cover his butt on that one, too. Unless, of course, they can find the island and find Kristen. So, even if EJ avoids charges over Lexie and Kristen, there’s more trouble. EJ could be in hot water over DiMera Pharmaceuticals and the arsenic-laced pill dump on Smith Island.

Those pills caused at least two deaths and maybe more. But the dump pills that seeped into the water well is a big issue. That Horton cabin mishap almost killed Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis). And Johnny knows all about it, but I don’t know if he would rat out his dad EJ.

Days of Our Lives: Can EJ Keep Himself Out of Prison?

But Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey), Xander Cook (Paul Telfer), and Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) all believed that EJ planted the arsenic pills in Holly’s bag at the hospital. Xander had that aha moment. He remembered he left the bag and turned his back, which gave EJ the opportunity to plant the pills in it.

But unless they have a witness, that’s something else that EJ might get away with what he did to Holly. However, Brady, Sarah, and Xander also really want to tie EJ to the tainted pills, and they may succeed. Bottom line, EJ has a lot of criminal balls in the air and it seems like he may wind up arrested for at least one of these things that he has done because he has done a lot of crimes.

But someone’s got his back. Rolf is gone and can’t testify against him. EJ didn’t kidnap Gwen. Kristen is going to be missing and without a body or more than that, they can’t do a lot about it. So, EJ’s been very busy covering his tracks. The question is, will he avoid prison? Maybe.

Jason Kelce cannot believe Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce managed to keep photographs from their massive wedding away from the public. Despite approximately 1,000 guests gathering inside Madison Square Garden for the July 3 ceremony, Jason said he has yet to see a legitimate image from the star-studded celebration appear online. The retired Philadelphia Eagles center also offered rare details about the newlyweds’ efforts to create an intimate and highly secure experience inside one of New York City’s most recognizable venues.

Jason discussed his brother’s wedding during a Thursday, July 30, appearance on SportsRadio 94WIP. “I haven’t seen any legitimate photos really from the wedding. It’s remarkable,” the 38-year-old said.

“There were a thousand people inside Madison Square Garden,” he continued, calling it “the biggest wedding, probably, I’ve ever attended for sure, and there’s really not a lot out there.”

When the host praised Swift and Travis for keeping details private, Jason joked, “Yeah, I’m ruining that right now.”

However, he suggested the lack of leaked photographs reflects the considerable effort the couple made to protect their celebration. “I think, this is obviously an effort by Travis and Taylor to really try and make this as intimate of a moment as possible,” Jason explained.

Madison Square Garden Reportedly Felt Surprisingly Intimate

5

Swift and Travis faced some criticism over their decision to marry at Madison Square Garden, a venue associated more closely with sold-out concerts and sporting events than private ceremonies.

Jason acknowledged that the couple “got some backlash” over their unconventional choice, but he insisted the celebration did not feel like it was taking place inside the famous arena. “It didn’t feel like Madison Square [Garden],” he said.

According to Jason, careful planning allowed the couple to maintain control over the event while still creating a warm atmosphere for their guests. “They did a great job of, like, finding an area that could be very secure, some place that, you know, they would be able to have this kind of control over it while also feeling intimate and really special. It was incredibly done.”

Interest in Swift and Travis has remained intense throughout their relationship, meaning those closest to the couple have had to adjust to constant attention. When asked how he helps protect their personal lives, Jason explained that maintaining boundaries has become second nature.

“For us, I mean, this is kind of the world we’ve been living in, we respect the privacy of Taylor, her family, of Travis,” he said. “There’s so much interest in what those guys are doing at all times, so I think you just get used to it.”

The apparent absence of leaked photographs is especially notable given the number of guests reportedly in attendance. While some information about the ceremony has emerged, the couple has maintained control over the most intimate visual details from the day.

Jason’s emotions apparently caught him by surprise during the ceremony. Also during his SportsRadio appearance, he admitted that he shed more tears while watching Travis marry Swift than he did when marrying his own wife, Kylie Kelce.

“I did cry. I probably cried more this wedding than I cried at my own wedding, which probably is not acceptable,” Jason joked, before acknowledging that Kylie might have something to say about the admission, adding that she “is probably not happy about that.”

Jason played an important role in the celebration as Travis’ best man. Swift reportedly chose her younger brother, Austin Swift, to serve as her man of honor instead of having a traditional bridal party.

Swift and Travis tied the knot on July 3 during a ceremony attended by an estimated 1,000 guests, including celebrity friends and prominent figures from the entertainment industry. The bride reportedly walked down the aisle as an instrumental rendition of her song “Love Story” played.

Travis wore a white tuxedo, while both he and Swift exchanged vows they had written themselves. One guest described the newlyweds’ mood throughout the celebration, saying, “They were both beaming the entire night.”

Adam Sandler, one of Travis’ childhood heroes, reportedly officiated the ceremony. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end previously appeared alongside the actor in “Happy Gilmore 2.”

Kim Kardashian is saving a man from the massive six-figure debt he owed her after he sued her over an Instagram mix-up! According to a new report, the “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star extended grace to a man whom a federal judge demanded pay her nearly $170,000 in legal fees.

Kim, 45, has reportedly agreed not to collect a whopping $167,000 debt owed to her from a man named Ivan Cantu. According to TMZ, Cantu filed a shocking lawsuit against the mother of four back in 2024 after she wrongly shared his image on her Instagram account.

At the time, Kim, a hopeful lawyer, was advocating for an inmate with the same name to be taken off death row. Kim posted a photo of the wrong Cantu to her Instagram, writing, “THE STATE WILL EXECUTE IVAN CANTU IN 2 DAYS.”

Cantu was furious over the social media mishap and sued the “Kardashians” star. Cantu requested that Kim compensate him for the alleged damages caused to his reputation. Kim, of course, denied wrongdoing and deleted the photo almost immediately after learning of her mistake.

A judge sided with Kim and dismissed all of Cantu’s claims against her. The judge also ordered Cantu to pay Kim’s $167,000 legal bill.

Cantu was dismayed by the judgment, reportedly telling the reality star and businesswoman’s team that there was no way he could afford to pay the six-figure debt.

Thankfully for Cantu, Kim extended grace, agreeing to put the debt aside, while her representative slammed the New York resident for filing the lawsuit in the first place.

“This is a lawsuit that should never have been filed. The Court agreed and threw it out and ordered that [Cantu] pay Kim’s legal fees. Kim agreed to waive those fees and so [Ivan] has dismissed his case with prejudice,” they told TMZ.

Kim Kardashian Was Accused Of Invasion Of Privacy

In Cantu’s original lawsuit, he accused Kim of invasion of privacy along with a slew of other serious civil allegations, including emotional distress, libel, and slander.

Cantu’s original filing called Kim’s 2024 Instagram post “clearly untrue, erroneous, unfounded, shocking, scandalous, degrading, disgraceful, and/or shameful,” according to USA Today.

One of Cantu’s lawyers also commented on the matter, saying Kim had an obligation to use her platform responsibly.

“Social media is a powerful force. It can be used for good: to spark social change, to warn of danger, and to foster relationships. But, when abused, social media can also inflict pain, suffering, and tragedy,” they stated.

According to Cantu’s legal representative, Kim’s post “defamed his reputation” and cast a bright light on his personal life. “As a result of the Kardashian abuse, Mr. Cantu’s privacy was destroyed at a most critical and sensitive time, and he has suffered very real trauma that will last a lifetime,” they continued.

Kim Initially Responded To Cantu’s Suit And Claimed He Was Attempting To ‘Cash In On A Mistake’

Over the years, Kim has used her public platform to advocate for criminal justice reform and to highlight individuals and inmates she feels were wrongfully convicted and imprisoned.

Her work has inspired her to pursue a career as a lawyer, leading her to take the bar exam once and the baby bar four times.

Kim’s lawyer initially responded to Cantu’s lawsuit and explained that the A-lister has spent a considerable amount of time telling the stories of individuals who didn’t have the chance to share them themselves, such as the Cantu who was executed by the state of Texas in February 2024.

Kim also broke her silence, slamming Cantu’s lawsuit and calling it an attempt to “cash in on a mistake.” She explained that over eight years, she’s used her various resources and celebrity status to “advocate for criminal justice reform and a fairer legal system.”

Why Did Kim Want To Help Cantu?

Kim said that her recent advocacy was born from a natural desire to help others and to use her voice to “fight for people” who were less fortunate.

She went on to say that she engages in this type of advocacy not for monetary gain, but because she’s passionate about it.

“I was moved by Mr. Cantu’s story and his steadfast claim of innocence. I was also troubled by what I understood to be serious problems with Mr. Cantu’s conviction,” she added.

“Sinners” and “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler has produced a pilot episode for a planned Hulu reboot series for “The X-Files.” Now, following production on the episode, one of the show’s original stars, Gillian Anderson, is sharing her thoughts on the direction of the show and remaining mute on whether she will appear.

Anderson sat down for an Entertainment Tonight interview with her “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma” costar, Hannah Einbinder, who asked her various questions. During the discussion, the topic of Coogler’s planned reboot of “X-Files” came up, with the “Hacks” alum asking Anderson for her thoughts and if she may appear.

First, the 57-year-old played coy, joking, “He is?” Anderson then said, “I can’t answer the last question, but the question before that, I cannot think of a better person to take the helm.” After that, the beloved actress stated that she “cannot wait to see it.”

She added, “I think that he’s extraordinary and I read the script that he wrote, and it’s brilliant.” Anderson continued, “I was impressed by how different and yet how quintessentially like an X-File it was.

Gillian Spoke About The Reboot After It Was First Announced

Coogler has been involved in a planned “X-Files” reboot since 2023. After the success of “Sinners” in 2025, it was confirmed that this would be his next project. Then, in February 2026, Hulu ordered a pilot for the series to determine whether they would be interested in commissioning a full season.

In May 2025, while appearing on ITV1’s “This Morning,” she reacted to the plans to once again bring the iconic series back. Anderson said, “I spoke to [Coogler], and what I said was, ‘If anyone were to do it, I think you are the perfect person, and best of luck.”

She continued, joking, “Call me,” before adding, “At some point, if the phone rings and it’s good and it feels like the right time, perhaps.” Anderson then said of her potential involvement, “Whether I am involved in it is a whole other thing; I’m not saying no.”

In discussing the Oscar-winning director, Anderson stated, “I think [Coogler is] really cool and I think if he did it, it would probably be done incredibly well. And maybe I’ll pop in for a little something something.” 

The ‘X-Files’ Alum Credits The Role For Her Career

“X-Files,” which Anderson co-starred on with David Duchovny, premiered on Fox in 1993 before ending its original run in 2002. Several years later, the show was revived, running from 2016 until 2018. During the revival, Anderson received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Ahead of the honor, she spoke to Variety, reflecting on the show’s legacy and how it helped launch her career as an actress. While reflecting on her early years on the show, she said, “I was so green at the beginning, and so young, and I was just exploring.”

Anderson continued, “I showed up and hit my mark and learned my lines and was pulled into this vortex of this hit show. It was my first professional, proper gig, and it was a cannon of sorts.”

Regarding her iconic character, Scully, she shared, “The character that Chris Carter created, one didn’t see her often on television at that time. So to be a part of that was incredibly empowering for me and extraordinary to be a part of both a character and a series that was so iconic and game-changing.”

The Cast Was Announced In Early 2026

Award-winning actress Danielle Deadwyler was cast as one of the co-leads in Coogler’s “X-Files” reboot in February 2026. After that, in March, according to Deadline, Himesh Patel was also cast as one of the leads.

The series comes from Onyx Collective and 20th Television, and Jennifer Yale will serve as showrunner. Deadwyler and Patel will play brand-new characters in the rebooted series if Hulu orders more episodes beyond the pilot. Yale will also executive produce, as will original “X-Files” creator Chris Carter.

Nolan Wells’ Family & Attorney Ben Crump Calls For Answers While Addressing Recent Attacks

As they continue mourning Nolan Wells, his parents, Elmore and Christine Wonsley, joined Attorney Ben Crump for another press conference. During the event, they revealed that an alleged harassment campaign has targeted Christine and reportedly flooded her workplace with negative reviews. They also said Christine has received threatening messages and harassing mail. While speaking about the attacks, Elmore Wonsley said the harassment has made it even harder for their family to grieve Nolan’s tragic death.

“A parent can’t grieve when you have people attacking them, attacking their jobs, attacking their character, just attacking them period,” Elmore Wonsley said. “Like, where’s the empathy?”

Additionally, Elmore said the attacks go beyond disrespecting them and have also targeted their parenting. He added that people have even accused them of being racist.

“We can’t grieve the way we need to because we’re being disrespected, we’re being called all kind of racist, bad parents — we were not raised like and we did not raise our children like that, so we just want the truth,” Elmore said. “Any parent would want that, any father would want that, any mother.”

Christine Wonsley isn’t the only one facing threats. Nolan Wells’ friends say they have, too. Ashlee Cole, a chancery court judge whose son joined the Horn Island boat trip on July 4, said she shut down her social media after people threatened her entire family, including her younger children. Her son, Warren Hudson, also said his family has received thousands of death threats, adding that the threats pushed him to skip Nolan’s memorial service.

Attorney Ben Crump Calls Out Those Targeting Nolan’s Mother

Ben Crump also spoke on the attacks coming at Christine and Nolan’s family. He called the people behind them “sick” and said it’s heartbreaking that anyone would treat a grieving family this way.

“They are just sick, evil people who would attack this mother and this father for simply saying we want to know what happened to our child,” Crump said.

Crump continued explaining that Christine has worked as a nurse for years and never had negative review until now. He feels the only reason people are coming at her is because she and Elmore keep fighting for Nolan.

“Christine has been a nurse for years, and she hasn’t ever gotten negative reviews. But since she has been advocating to find out what happened to her 18-year-old son after he was washed up dead on Horn Island, sick people have been going on her company’s website giving her negative reviews. Can you all imagine anything worse than that?

Christine Wonsley Shares Emotional Details About Grieving Nolan

Christine Wonsley has been opening up about navigating life without Nolan. She shared a heartfelt TikTok where she gave a glimpse into her grieving process and the pain of losing her son. In the clip, Christine shared details about her grief while showing herself completing her morning routine and promising to keep fighting for answers. Christine admitted she’s still trying to process everything, saying it’s been “a trying week” and she feels “all over the place.” Still, she said she’s holding onto her faith and relying on the love and support around her and Elmore.
