Bravo’s In the City cast is full of familiar faces, returning stars and a few newcomers.

The network dropped the show’s first trailer on April 7, and fans got a first look at some of the Summer House stars living their real life in New York City. Aside from Lindsay Hubbard, Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula, former Summer House stars Andrea Denver and Danielle Olivera are returning to TV. They’re joined by nine other cast members to make up a full friend group in the Big Apple.

The trailer teased the ups and downs in Amanda and Kyle’s relationship, which led to their split. The former couple announced their separation in January after four years of marriage.

“Who was in our apartment last night while I’m asleep?” Amanda asked Kyle in the trailer. “Do you know how many times you’ve cheated on me?”

Elsewhere, the duo appear to have a tense conversation about their divorce.

Thank You!

You have successfully subscribed.

“We don’t have a prenup, but if you come for me, I’ll come for you,” Amanda said. Kyle replied, “That would be a losing battle.”

Fans also saw a glimpse of Summer House star West Wilson hugging Amanda. Days before the In the City trailer was released, Amanda and West — who was previously dating Summer House star and Amanda’s best friend Ciara Miller — confirmed their romance.

Meghan Markle’s move to trademark As Ever in Australia ahead of a visit with Prince Harry has sparked questions about the lifestyle brand.

Experts say expansion may reflect slower-than-expected U.S. growth, especially after Netflix stepped back.

Despite strong indications of a global expansion, a spokesperson for Meghan Markle’s lifestyle brand remained while addressing the growing speculations.

Why Filing An Australian Trademark Could Signal Challenges For Meghan Markle’s As Ever

After recently filing a trademark for her As Ever brand in Australia, just ahead of an upcoming visit with her husband, Prince Harry, Meghan’s latest business move is sparking fresh questions about the state of her lifestyle venture.

Speaking to Page Six, PR expert Kayley Cornelius described the expansion as both strategic and potentially reactive.

“Meghan Markle filing a trademark for her As Ever lifestyle brand in Australia feels like a very deliberate move, but it also points to a bigger picture when it comes to how the brand is currently performing in the US,” Cornelius said.

According to the expert, entering a new market like Australia could suggest the brand isn’t “delivering the level of success” expected in the United States.

She also pointed to reports that Netflix has stepped back from its involvement, which may limit As Ever’s ability to scale locally, particularly when it comes to launching new products or growing the brand in a meaningful way.

“In that context, branching out into a new market starts to feel less like a choice and more like a necessity to avoid the brand stagnating,” Cornelius added.

Experts Say Australia Holds Big Potential For The Duchess’s As Ever Expansion

Despite concerns, Australia presents clear potential for Meghan. Cornelius noted that the country’s lifestyle trends and consumer habits align well with As Ever’s identity.

In addition, the public’s perception of Harry and Meghan is generally more neutral, which could make it easier to build trust and connect with a new audience.

“It is a market where they are already well known, but perhaps not as heavily scrutinized,” Cornelius noted.

Timing, too, she noted, appears to play a role. “Launching or introducing the brand in Australia alongside that kind of high-profile exposure is a smart way to generate interest and momentum,” Cornelis said.

She continued, “It is not just about cracking a new market, it is also about creating an opportunity to bring in new revenue streams and potentially attract further investment at a time when that may be needed.”

Even so, the expert stated that the expansion carries weight. Success in a receptive market like Australia could seemingly open doors for global growth. On the other hand, if the brand struggles to gain traction there, it may raise broader concerns about its long-term direction.

“In that sense, this expansion feels very much like a make-or-break moment,” she added.

As Ever Denies Reports Of International Expansion

Last month, a spokesperson for As Ever shut down speculation that Meghan was preparing to expand the brand internationally, describing claims of an Australian launch as all “speculation.”

In a statement to Us Weekly, the representative stressed that “no decisions have been made about when or where international expansion might take place.”

They added that while global growth is part of the brand’s long-term vision, entering new markets requires careful planning.

For now, the spokesperson hinted that developments are still in progress, urging observers to “watch this space.”

Meghan Markle’s Brand Split With Netflix

The speculation comes at a pivotal moment for As Ever, which is stepping into a new chapter following the end of its partnership with Netflix.

The streaming giant had previously supported the brand financially at launch, under a deal separate from Meghan and Harry’s content agreement.

Both sides confirmed the split last month, describing it as a natural progression. A spokesperson for As Ever expressed gratitude for the early support, noting that the brand experienced “meaningful and rapid growth” in its first year and is now ready to stand on its own.

Netflix echoed that sentiment, highlighting Meghan’s vision for celebrating simple, elevated everyday moments, while emphasizing that independence had always been part of the long-term plan.

Why Meghan Markle’s As Ever Isn’t Landing In The UK Anytime Soon

Despite the buzz surrounding its products, from signature jams and rosé wines to herbal teas and edible flower sprinkles, As Ever remains accessible only within the U.S., with shipping limited to all 50 states.

That decision has raised questions, particularly in the United Kingdom, where Meghan once lived during her time as a senior royal. However, brand and culture expert Nick Ede believes the strategy may be “deliberate.”

Speaking to the Daily Express, Ede explained that both public perception and market conditions likely play a role. He suggested Meghan’s influence in the UK may not be as strong as it once was, making it a less appealing market for now.

He also pointed out that the British retail space is already saturated with celebrity-backed lifestyle products, particularly in categories like rosé wine, where names such as Kylie Minogue and Lady A have established a firm presence.

Beyond competition, he noted that some of As Ever’s offerings, like decorative flower sprinkles, may not immediately resonate with UK consumers, further complicating potential demand.

Kanye West has faced yet another fallout tied to his past antisemitic remarks.

The rapper, who had been scheduled to perform at one of London’s biggest festivals, has now had his visa revoked by the UK Home Office.

In the lead-up to the decision, several brands, such as PayPal, had already withdrawn their support for the event. With the ban now in place, the festival itself has been called off.

Kanye West Was Banned Over His Past Antisemitism Rants

Fans of Kanye West who were hoping to see him headline London’s Wireless Festival have been left disappointed after the rapper was banned from entering the UK.

The decision appears to be linked to his history of antisemitic remarks, particularly a series of online rants over the past few years.

While the rapper has since issued an apology for his actions, it did little to sway UK authorities, as reflected in comments made by Prime Minister Keir Starmer ahead of the festival.

“Kanye West should never have been invited to headline Wireless. This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism,” the government official wrote on X.

He added, “We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.”

Starmer’s statement was further echoed in an announcement from the Home Office that explained their decision.

“Where individuals pose a threat to public safety or seek to spread extremism, the government has not hesitated to act, and that includes canceling permission to enter this country for extremist preachers and far-right figures,” read the statement.

Several Sponsors Had Already Pulled Out Of The Event

As a result of the visa ban, the festival was canceled, and refunds were automatically issued by the organizers.

However, even before the ban, the festival had already suffered major losses due to its association with West, as several brands distanced themselves from the event.

The latest was PayPal, a payment provider known to partner with Live Nation UK Festivals.

Drinks giant Diageo and Pepsi had also already pulled out, although they did not directly cite West as the reason for their decision.

Kanye West’s History Of Antisemitism

West’s history of targeting Jews with hate speech dates back to October 2022, when he wrote in a tweet that he was going “death con [sic] 3 on Jewish people.”

Even after several brands and partners cut ties with the rapper at the time, and he lost the support of close friends, he doubled down on his remarks in February 2025 with a lengthy rant in which he said he never intended to apologize for his comments about Jews.

He subsequently sold a shirt featuring a swastika and released a song titled “Heil Hitler,” in which he claimed to be a “Nazi.”

The rapper’s longtime partnership with Adidas also abruptly came to an end after he bragged that he could “say antisemitic sh-t” and the shoe giant won’t drop him.

The Rapper Apologized For His Antisemitism Behavior

Earlier this year, West took out an ad in which he expressed remorse over his past antisemitic remarks.

He also claimed that his “reckless behavior” was due to a car crash 25 years ago that left him suffering from trauma and bipolar disorder.

“I regret and am deeply mortified by my actions in that state, and am committed to accountability, treatment, and meaningful change,” he wrote.

West added, “It does not excuse what I did, though. I am not a Nazi or an antisemite. I love Jewish people.”

Social Media Divided Over Kanye West Ban Amid Career Comeback

Online, the response has been split after the rapper was barred from performing in London, with some seeing it as the right move by the government, while others disagreed despite West’s past actions.

A person wrote on X, “Freedom of speech has consequences. UK said no nazis allowed.”

Another commented, “Kanye represented negativity against groups of people and forgot that his words would return to bite him in the buttocks.”

“Right decision- you know he’ll be a t-t on stage and incite stupidity amongst the crowd,” a third person noted.

However, a fan of West seemed displeased by the news, asking, “Doesn’t banning a guy from entering a country because he said bad things about jews and then apologized kind of make it pointless to apologize?”

Others seemed displeased that the entire Wireless festival was canceled, wondering why the rapper specifically wasn’t replaced by another headliner.

Matt Damon has gained widespread recognition for starring in numerous successful films, ranging from massive blockbusters to cult favorites across genres, including sci-fi. While some of his lesser-known projects are now being rediscovered through streaming, his more popular titles are also enjoying renewed attention, including, most recently, his biggest sci-fi hit. This film is based on a well-known book and features an ensemble cast that includes Jessica Chastain, Jeff Daniels, Kristen Wiig, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sean Bean, Michael Peña, Kate Mara, Sebastian Stan, and Mackenzie Davis.

Not only does the sci-fi standout boast a stellar cast, but it was also directed by Ridley Scott, one of the highest-grossing filmmakers of all time, and marked his most commercially successful project. Titled The Martian, it was released in 2015 to positive reviews and numerous accolades, including a Best Picture nomination at the 88th Academy Awards. The film is also based on the novel of the same name by Andy Weir, who also wrote 2026’s most critically acclaimed sci-fi epic Project Hail Mary. The Martian could effectively be called a hybrid of that film and Tom Hanks‘ iconic survival movie Cast Away. Over the years, it has experienced renewed popularity across multiple streaming platforms worldwide—including now. As of this writing, The Martian is trending on streaming and PVOD charts globally, including in the U.S., with strong performance on HBO Max in the Netherlands, as well as worldwide on the Apple TV store and Google platforms.

What’s Next for Matt Damon?

He stars as Lieutenant Dane Dumars, a police officer in the Miami-Dade Police Department narcotics unit, alongside Ben Affleck, Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, and Catalina Sandino Moreno. Next, fans will see Damon in The Odyssey, working with Christopher Nolan once again following the success of Oppenheimer.

In the upcoming fantasy adaptation, Damon stars as Odysseus, the Greek king of Ithaca, on a long and perilous journey home after the Trojan War, seeking to reunite with his wife, Penelope (Anne Hathaway). The ensemble cast also features Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Zendaya, and Charlize Theron, among others. The Odyssey is scheduled to arrive in U.S. theaters from Universal Pictures on July 17, 2026.

A lawsuit against Howard Stern by former assistant Leslie Kuhn has resurfaced earlier allegations from his ex-staff about working conditions.

In 2023, Jackie Martling, John Melendez, and Steve Grillo claimed they were underpaid despite Stern’s fortune and said he often prioritized himself.

All three were employed by Howard Stern for years but left later after not getting raises despite the shock jock making a lot of money.

Howard Stern’s Ex-Staff Claims He Was Let Go After Asking For A Raise

Amid Howard Stern being embroiled in a lawsuit from his former assistant, complaints made by his ex-staffers about the shock jock in a documentary have come back to light.

In 2023, Stern’s ex-employee, Jackie “The Joke Man” Martling, opened up in the Vice TV docuseries “Dark Side of the 2000s Shock Jocks” about how his former boss was “making countless millions of dollars” as the face of the show while much of the staff remained severely underpaid.

“It was frightening what was going on,” said Martling, who worked on Stern’s eponymous show as a cast member and writer from 1983 to 2001, per Page Six. “There was so much money coming in. It was crazy the amount of money.”

At the time, Martling shared that he couldn’t wrap his head around how Stern made no move to bump up his salary despite the relationship they shared, and that when he did request a raise, Stern chose to let him go instead.

“You are beyond rich and successful, and you have someone sitting next to you who makes you enjoy that job much more. And you let them go?” Martling also noted about his former boss. “Because he asked for more money? Especially when you’re friends. It boggles the mind.”

Other Ex-Staffers Also Complained About Being Underpaid By The Comedian

Martling wasn’t the only one to raise complaints about being underpaid, as the likes of John Melendez and Steve Grillo also made similar claims.

In Melendez’s case, he claimed that he only earned $20,000 when he began working with Stern and never went above $75,000. After leaving the show and working with Jay Leno, he earned around $350,000 to $400,000.

Meanwhile, Grillo claimed that his first few years on the show came with no pay, and that when he did start earning a salary, it was only minimum wage and did not fully cover all the hours he worked.

“I started getting paid about 30 hours a week, minimum wage, which was like $6.35 at that time,” he shared. “So I got paid for 30 hours, and I was working like 60.”

Howard Stern’s Ex-Staffer Slams Him Over Lack Of Support Despite Making A ‘Million Dollars An Hour’

Just like Martling, Grillo claimed to have received no support from Stern when he reached out to the higher-ups to ask for a raise.

“You’re making a million dollars an hour, and I have to go work at a nightclub in order to survive,” Grillo reflected.

He continued, “And this is the moment I knew I was gonna leave. If that man’s not gonna stick up for me, I’m out. And that’s when I left.”

The Shock Jock Was Sued By An Ex-Employee Over ‘Hostile Work Environment’ And Other Claims

The resurfaced allegations come on the heels of Stern and his wife, Beth, being sued by his former executive assistant, Leslie Kuhn.

Kuhn claimed in her suit that Stern fostered a “hostile work environment” and seemingly suggested that the couple was not willing to give her a raise.

She was fired in February, just two months after receiving a raise letter that would have increased her salary from $80,000 to $265,000.

Kuhn also alleged that Stern says she signed a non-disclosure agreement, which she denies. She also called the document “manufactured” and said it shouldn’t be enforceable.

She further alleged that the supposed NDA prevents her from discussing her employment and termination while allowing Stern and his wife to speak openly about her.

The Alleged Howard Stern’s NDA For His Ex-Employee Had Many Bizarre Rules

Details of the alleged NDA were obtained by Page Six, which revealed several bizarre rules Stern and his wife wanted Kuhn to observe when they offered her employment.

The document ordered the former employee never to disclose the Stern family’s “daily activities and personal habits,” including their “food preferences, sleeping habits, [and] hobbies.”

It also restricted Kuhn from sharing details of the family’s consumer product choices, preferred eating or entertainment establishments, and even political affiliations.

Kuhn was further banned from discussing “any other matters affecting or relating to the Company and its business, and the personal and business affairs of the Company.”

General Hospital spoilers confirmed that Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) is going to order somebody to be taken out, a female somebody.

We’re going to talk about what unlucky lady in Port Charles may be dead by the end of this week.

Sidwell Vows To Even The Score on General Hospital

All right, so this week after facing off with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst), we saw Jenz Sidwell vow to even the score. He is completely convinced that Sonny killed Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo). And in the new promo, Sidwell is saying, “Get rid of her permanently.” So, let’s talk about who she might be.

But first, real quick, let’s talk about who Sidwell is giving the kill order to. It could be a random henchman. But that’s dull, let’s face it. It could also be Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) doing Sidwell’s dirty work, or possibly Pascal, who is murderous and he loved Marco and he knows he played a role in his death. So, I think he could go release some tension killing somebody.

Could Jordan Be the Target on GH?

So, with the hit order given, which woman in Port Charles might be pushing up daisies in just a few days, I think that it’s going to be Pascal or Cassius tasked with this deadly deed. And we have some ideas of who is going to be in their crosshairs. So, first off, this week, General Hospital spoilers show danger for Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper). Now, off the cuff, you got to wonder why Sidwell would target her.

Now, if you remember, he warned Jordan recently that he could make sure she loses everything. Because he wants her to find out information and get involved in this Marco investigation. And we know from the jump she only took the job with Sidwell to take him down. But she hasn’t made a lot of progress.

Does Sidwell Realize Jordan’s Out to Get Him on General Hospital?

Jordan did recently tell Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) that Sidwell being distracted by Marco’s death could be the chance for her to get evidence to take him down. So, maybe Sidwell’s figured out she cannot be trusted. Another GH spoiler for this week says that Curtis is distraught and April spoilers say he’s worried about Jordan.

So, she could be in danger. But it kind of looks more likely that Curtis and Jordan could be in a car accident. There’s a scene in the big weekly promo and it looks like a power line comes down across the road.

Curtis is in the passenger seat and Jordan is driving and they look like they’re having a good time. They look happy. But you know, even a power line could be taken down with some planning to make it look like an accident. But I kind of doubt that Sidwell targets Jordan just yet. Because he wants to hit at Sonny.

What About Carly?

Now, the second thing to think about, we also have Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) out on the road. She’s in a car with Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart). And so far we’ve seen Carly kind of playing nice with Sidwell. If you remember, Carly went over to spy at Wyndemere to see if she could help Valentin by pretending to be there for Lucas and in support of his relationship with Marco. And last we saw Sidwell and Carly, they were playing nice. They were planning a party together.

But with Marco dead and Sidwell lashing out, we can’t take Carly off the board as a possible death target for Sidwell’s revenge play against Sonny. Because let’s face it, Carly is the mom of a couple of his kids and she is a woman and Sidwell is definitely gunning for a female to punish Sonny. But again, with Carly and Valentin on the road along with Curtis and Jordan, those two vehicles might be involved in something.

So, we could see Carly and Valentin helping save Jordan. And then they ask Curtis to promise to keep it secret that Valentin’s out and about with Carly. And I do think Curtis would keep that secret if Valentin and Carly are the reason Jordan survives an auto accident. You know, maybe they have an accident and they roll up on them and then they don’t drive by, they decide to render aid.

Britt In Danger on GH?

And next, we need to talk about Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud). Because this week she is determined to tell Sidwell that she knows Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) is the one who murdered Marco. And I suspect it’s Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) that Britt is talking to when she says this. But somebody this week is calling her naive and it may be her brother Cassius.

General Hospital spoilers say that Britt gets warned by Cassius this week that if she doesn’t deliver, sister or not, Britt is on her own. So Cassius might be warning Britt she needs to prioritize the Cold Fusion prototype or Britt’s going to be dead and nothing else matters. And Sidwell told Cassius that regardless of family ties, Britt will be held accountable for messing up the Cold Fusion project. And Cassius agreed with Sidwell that Britt must be quote unquote dealt with.

So, there is a chance that Cassius might have been telling Sidwell what he wants to hear, you know. But then again, when not Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) first came back from the dead, it sure seemed like Britt was afraid of him. So sister or not, Cassius may have no problem killing Britt. He is Cesar Faison‘s (Anders Hove) son after all. So Britt could be the person who’s targeted this week.

Kristina The Likeliest Target

But now let’s talk about who I think it really is that I think there’s a higher probability of and that’s Kristina Corinthos (Kate Mansi). We recently shared a leak from a reliable source that said Sidwell plans to kill Kristina to punish Sonny. Because he thinks he killed Marco.

And with the grand reopening of Charlie’s this week, it is the perfect time and place to cause chaos. We know that Sonny’s going to be there and he’s telling Kristina it’s going to be a great night. And based on the spoilers, the promo. And the leaks we’ve gotten, I fully expect that Sidwell is going to target Kristina during the reopening night event.

Twisted Karmic Justice on General Hospital

And if you remember, Sidwell already targeted Charlie’s once. He had it set on fire, so he probably could have an easier time targeting Kristina at her place of business. Because his henchmen know the layout. When Sidwell ordered it burned down, though, he thought Kristina wasn’t there. And last time, Sidwell didn’t intend to hurt Kristina.

Luckily, Marco was driving by and he rushed in and saved Kristina’s life. Because she doesn’t know how doors work and, you know, couldn’t get herself out of the fire. It was so badly done. And with Marco gone, Sidwell may think that taking Kristina’s life is some sort of twisted karma from Marco saving her and a perfect way to get revenge on Sonny.

Mistaken Identity – Justine Shot Instead?

Now, that being said, while I do think Kristina is the likeliest target, I don’t think she’ll die. I don’t even think she’s going to take a bullet. Instead, I think somebody who’s not on Sidwell’s radar could die accidentally. And the good news for the bad guy is that if this woman is collateral damage, it will still end up hurting Sonny.

So, I expect we may see Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) at the Charlie’s event. An April spoiler says Sonny and Justine make a serious commitment. So, it may be to see more of each other, to stop fighting. It may be to date kind of on the down low. Another official General Hospital spoiler says a couple’s date ends in disaster. And that could be about Sonny and Justine.

General Hospital: Sidwell’s Minion Hits the Wrong Target

So, our leaker told us that there’s a shooter targeting Kristina on Sidwell’s orders. But there’s a case of mistaken identity and somebody else is shot instead of her. Now, our source also gave a huge hint that it could be Justine because they said that Sonny may lose his current love interest.

So, yeah, Justine could be collateral damage if the shooter’s taking aim from outside looking for a brunette talking to Sonny. They both have very dark hair, similar height, similar build. And I expect that Sidwell is going to issue a death order against Kristina this week. But Justine may wind up hurt instead.

I’ve been making a conscious effort to check out more foreign-language films because it’s interesting to see how other cultures play with the tropes I’ve grown bored with stateside. I made this decision after watching 2017’s Veronica and its prequel, 2023’s Sister Death, which both serve as perfectly terrifying Spanish-language analogs to The Conjuring film series while still doing enough of their own thing to make you want more. The worldbuilding is top-tier in the sense that the lore explained everything you needed to know, but not in such a heavy-handed way that it overstayed its welcome.

My search ultimately led me to another Spanish-language film, 2007’s Timecrimes, which follows similar logic to low-budget sci-fi thrillers from the US like Primer (2004), Coherence (2013), Empathy, Inc.(2018), and Tim Travers and the Time Traveler’s Paradox (2024). All of these films are cut from the same cloth, but offer their own unique blends of existential dread in the face of free will and determinism, making you wonder who’s really in control of the situation. None of them offer clean answers either, which makes them perfect to revisit as you search for clues you may have missed the first time around.

Hector And His Duplicates

Timecrimes is a time-loop thriller where a man named Hector (Karra Elejalde) finds himself reliving the same few hours of his life on repeat, each time making matters worse for himself. His strange foray into the unknown begins while renovating his new house with his wife Clara (Candela Fernandez), who’s so busy unpacking and tending to the garden that she doesn’t initially realize anything is off.

When Hector sees a woman stripping naked in the nearby forest (Barbara Goenaga), he sets out to investigate. It’s not that he’s a peeping tom or anything creepy like that. He also notices somebody else in the woods and has reason to believe she might be in danger. After their first encounter, where he finds her nude, seemingly lifeless body, he runs off after spotting a strange man whose face is wrapped in bandages.

Fearing for his life, Hector runs toward a nearby building, where he communicates with a nameless scientist (Nacho Vigalondo) running a series of unsanctioned experiments over the weekend. The scientist stuffs Hector into what looks like a sensory deprivation tank but is actually a time machine. Hector emerges from the tank an hour earlier on the timeline and quickly realizes he may need to prevent the incident that led him to the building in order to restore some sense of balance.

The scientist, now referring to him as Hector 2, insists that he stay put and let the next hour play out as it originally did. Deciding to take matters into his own hands, Hector 2 runs off and tries to intervene with the girl and the masked man, only to learn the man’s origins, which adds another layer of confusion. The cycle continues in Timecrimes with a third Hector materializing, and this time Hector 2 is certain that Clara is in danger. Not quite sure how badly things will unravel if he keeps interfering, Hector 2 takes his chances, and it’s all but guaranteed he’s not going to like what happens next.

A Low-Budget, High-Concept Thriller 

Sharing the same DNA as the thrillers I mentioned earlier, Timecrimes stands on its own thanks to its willingness to trust the audience and let events unfold naturally. There are no heavy exposition dumps outside of the scientist laying out the most basic time travel logic we need to follow. Most of the suspense comes from Hector trying to recreate events to control the narrative, even as he realizes he has no real control over anyone’s actions, even if those actions are coming from slightly earlier versions of himself.

The amount of care Hector puts into not breaking the space-time continuum, even while suspecting that fate will play out the same way regardless, makes his journey all the more unnerving. There’s a lingering sense that he may have been stuck in this loop far longer than we realize, and we’re only witnessing one iteration of a much larger cycle. With that possibility in play, it becomes nearly impossible to pinpoint where the story truly begins, where it ends, or whether it’s meant to land on a clean conclusion at all.

As of this writing, Timecrimes is streaming for free on Tubi.

Savannah Guthrie made an emotional return to “TODAY” on Monday, April 6, following her brief hiatus over her mother Nancy Guthrie‘s disappearance.

Behind the scenes, reports claim her co-hosts were given strict orders on how to handle the journalist’s mother’s issue on air.

Meanwhile, to celebrate Easter, Savannah Guthrie was vulnerable and spoke about the struggles with her faith amid the difficult time that had hit her family.

Savannah Guthrie’s Co-Hosts Were Told To Focus On The News

Savannah Guthrie returned to her co-hosting duties on “Today” this week after she took a break to focus on her family amid her mom’s kidnapping issue.

But behind the scenes, reports suggest there were some ground rules the whole crew had to adhere to in a bid to keep things flowing.

According to Page Six, sources close to the production reveal that Savannah’s colleagues were explicitly told not to address her mom’s issue or even welcome her back formally.

“It was supposed to be business as usual. [Producers] said to act totally normal,” an insider shared. “‘Move forward’ is the vibe. It’s been a hard year and a draining time.”

The move was seemingly to curtail her from having to respond every time correspondents brought up the case, which would, in turn, break the flow.

The Journalist Is Ready To ‘Go Back To Arizona’ If There Are Major Developments In Her Mother’s Case

Despite the directive, Savannah’s colleagues Craig Melvin, Al Roker, Jenna Bush, Sheinelle Jones, and Carson Daly all welcomed her back on air.

Behind the scenes, the vibe was also emotional, with reports claiming there were lots of hugs to go round.

 “It is good to be home,” Guthrie said at the beginning of the show. “Ready or not, let’s do the news.”

Another source said, “There were lots of hugs … Coming back to a routine brings a sense of normalcy.”

They added, “She’s prepared to go back to Arizona if there are major developments in the case, or wherever she’s needed.”

Savannah Guthrie Vowed Not To ‘Fall Apart’

Before her return, there were fears Savannah would break down on air as she is still dealing with the disappearance of her mom, who was abducted from her Tucson, Arizona home on February 1.

However, the journalist has revealed she intends to stay strong and vowed not to “fall apart” for the sake of her two children, daughter Vale and son Charles.

“I will do it for my kids,” she told former co-host Hoda Kotb during an emotional sitdown in March. “I will not let whoever did this take my children’s mom away.”

The Journalist Was Praised For Her Bravery: ‘Her Faith Is Unmatched’

Following her return, an insider praised her bravery while noting the important role she plays on the set of the news show.

“Savannah is the heart of the show and the steady hand that guides everyone in the right direction,” the source said, per Page Six. “The staff and crew, we all needed her back. It was emotional for everyone.”

They continued, “Her sadness and pain are not gone, but her bravery and strength aren’t either, and her faith is unmatched.”

“Just as she needed to come home to her children and husband, she also needed to come home to her ‘Today’ family,’” the source added.

Savannah Guthrie Shared A Heartfelt Message About Challenges With Her Faith

Law enforcement has yet to make an arrest in Nancy’s disappearance, nor have they been able to come up with any viable leads.

The 84-year-old grandmother’s continuous disappearance seems to have left Savannah’s faith shaken as the TV host opened up about her struggles in an Easter video message at a New York church service on Sunday.

She spoke about the Christian belief in the resurrection and how humans still encounter “deep disappointment with God” and “the feeling of utter abandonment.”

“Recently, though, in my own season of trial, I have wondered, I have questioned whether Jesus really ever experienced this particular wound that I feel,” she said, per NBC News. “This grievous and uniquely cruel injury of not knowing, of uncertainty and confusion and answers withheld.”

“In those darkest moments,” she continued, “I have thought bitterly, and perhaps irreverently, that I have stumbled upon a feeling that Jesus did not know.”

Savannah then said that it’s not wrong to “challenge our God with questions,” and through it comes “a portal of revelation, the imparting of truth and wisdom.” She went on a seemingly short rant before saying that she “still believes.”

“I see a bright vision of the day when heaven and Earth pass away because they are one, on Earth as it is in heaven,” Savannah said in the closing of the message. “When we celebrate today, this is what we celebrate, and I celebrate, too. I still believe. And so I say with conviction, ‘Happy Easter.’”

 Bold and the Beautiful has Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) irate about Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) cheating on her on a recent episode. Sheila sliced and diced Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) with a pizza cutter and then licked off the blood.

But don’t worry, that was all bait and switch. Sheila is daydreaming about killing Taylor, but she’s not going to do it. And this week, it is confirmed Deacon and Sheila break up. We’re going to talk about whether Deacon and Sheila are really over for good or if something’s going to change after they split.

Taylor Admits The Truth To Sheila on Bold and the Beautiful

So, we saw Taylor take a big risk this week. This is that spoiler about a heroine risking danger for love. And that happened when Sheila confronted her in her office. So Taylor at first tried to fib, but Sheila had seen her and Deacon in a close moment and she already knew the truth before she even started asking questions.

But Sheila wanted to hear Taylor admit that she’s been cheating behind her back with her husband Deacon. And then it got worse with Sheila asking if this is just a rebound from Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye). Because Taylor finally admitted to Sheila, “This is not an affair. It is so much more than that.”

Taylor Admits to Wanting a Future with Deacon on B&B

Taylor said that she and Deacon are in love and they want a future together. That means the wife’s got to go. So Sheila was seething and everything Taylor said made Sheila even angrier. She ranted about Taylor breaking her professional ethics and targeting Deacon while he was vulnerable. And Sheila seemed also really mad at herself for feeling grateful to Taylor and for admiring her so much.

We saw Sheila making it clear she’s not going to let Taylor have Deacon and then it looked like Sheila was murdering Taylor. But no, that is not going to happen. That’s either Sheila’s imagination, that’s most likely, or Taylor having a flash of fear of what Sheila might do to her.

Sheila Confronts Deacon on Bold

This week, their conversation continues and she asked Taylor if she thinks that she’s unhinged. And then Taylor reminds Sheila that she cut off her toe. She faked a bear attack. She, you know, dismembered herself. All crazy stuff.

And in the end, I think she’s going to walk away, leave Taylor alive, and go to confront Deacon, who, by the way, is totally clueless that Sheila is on to them. But when Deacon’s wife shows up at Il Giardino, they’re going to have it out. I mean, there’s no reason for Sheila to take Taylor’s word that she and Deacon are in love and planning a future. Sheila needs to hear this from Deacon.

Deacon & Sheila Have a Heart-to-Heart on Bold and the Beautiful

So, Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for this week say that Sheila and Deacon have a heartbreaking conversation about their marriage and then they take a look back at their relationship and that leads into another B&B spoiler that says a couple who seem perfect for each other end things.

Definitely sounds like Sheila and Deacon. They were both villains. Andthey both did terrible things. They hurt many people. They both spent time in prison, but then, you know, starting with him, they both wanted to be better and they both wanted redemption. Deacon even recently said that when they first got together, they were lost souls.

Sheila’s First Real Test on B&B

So, to me, this feels like the first real test that Sheila has faced since she has decided she wants to change who she is and be a decent human. Deacon, however, has been on this road for longer, and I do feel like he’s made a legit transformation into a good human.

He’s not even close to being the bad guy that he used to be. Now, he’s got Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) in his life. He’s got her kids. He owns Il Giardino. And Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) respects him enough to invest. So, really, he has totally remade his life.

The only complication in Deacon’s life is that Sheila terrorized so many people for so many years that nobody wants her around. It wasn’t even that long ago when she shot Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) and nearly killed them both. Almost killed Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda).

So, another B&B spoiler says that Sheila tells Deacon despite her pain, she’s going to walk away and she’s not going to do something she will regret. And we also know their split is confirmed because another April spoiler says that Taylor and Deacon take their relationship public. So, Sheila’s out and Taylor’s in. But, will she and Deacon last? And are Sheila and Deacon really over for good? Got some insight on that.

Is Sheila Really Changed?

So, initially, I think Sheila wants to prove that she’s changed and she isn’t unhinged anymore. That might be the best revenge Sheila can get to show everybody they were totally wrong about her. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean Taylor and Deacon won’t have to deal with Sheila.

Another spoiler for this week says Taylor and Deacon don’t realize it, but they are being watched. And that could be Ridge or Steffy. You know, they’re both a little upset on Bold and the Beautiful about this thing. Or it could be that Sheila is stalking them.

Bold and the Beautiful: Sheila More Hury by Taylor

I mean, let’s face it, May Sweeps doesn’t kick off until the third week of April, and I would expect something explosive. So, we may have a few weeks of peace and quiet and Sheila seeming sane. So, she may leave Deacon with Taylor, but then Sheila just can’t hold it together.

You know, Deacon may think that he and Sheila are done for good when all is said and done. The thing is she might not be able to let him go. I don’t think she’s changed enough to let Taylor get to happily ever after with Deacon that Sheila thinks belongs to her.

And I think she’s even more upset with Taylor than she is with Deacon because Sheila thought they were close friends even though Taylor always told Sheila they were not.

But I think she feels more betrayed by Taylor, who should have been above sleeping with a patient who was a married man. So, while Deacon and Sheila may end their relationship, Taylor and Deacon might not be able to fully escape Sheila long-term.

Divorce Drama Ahead on B&B?

I’m also wondering if Deacon is going to go ahead and file for divorce and then Sheila causes problems with that. She keeps referring to Il Giardino as their business. It’s not. Deacon owns it free and clear and he had already built it into something and then Sheila got out of prison.

And it was kind of like he gave Sheila a work release job and then in her mind it’s this full partnership thing they built together which isn’t true. Deacon and Taylor are going to get together officially.

That’s confirmed in Bold and the Beautiful spoilers but I doubt the drama is done. Sheila has never loved anyone like she loves Deacon. So, in her mind, it’s not over.

Bold and the Beautiful: Sheila Still Gets Her Revenge

Sheila may do something typical for scorned wives, and she may refuse to divorce Deacon to try and stop him and Taylor from having a real future together. You know, just because Sheila doesn’t get violent doesn’t mean she won’t try to make Taylor and Deacon pay for what they did to her. I just can’t see Sheila going that easy on them.

But, of course, we’ll see how it plays out. I mean, even totally sane women have been driven unhinged by cheating husbands. So, Deacon should enjoy Taylor while he can because it may not last forever.

Deacon and Sheila’s split happens this week. That is confirmed in Bold and the Beautiful spoilers. However, I think we’re going to see hints that things are far from over where Sheila is concerned and May sweeps may be the end of what looks like a resolution and her walking away quietly and it may turn into something explosive.
