Today cohost Savannah Guthrie has frequently appealed to the public for help following the mysterious disappearance of her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, in Arizona.

Pima County police suspect that Nancy was abducted from her home in the Catalina Foothills north of Tucson, Arizona, in the early hours of February 1, 2026. Per law enforcement, a friend of Nancy’s from church first noticed that she had not attended that Sunday’s virtual worship service and contacted one of Nancy’s children, who checked on her home and eventually alerted police.

Since Nancy’s disappearance, local police and federal investigators have recovered DNA evidence and surveillance camera footage from her home but have yet to publicly name a potential suspect in the kidnapping, as of publication.

Federal investigators are offering a $100,000 reward for successful tips, while the Guthrie family is putting up their own $1 million reward that will be “paid only for recovery of Nancy Guthrie,” per Savannah’s Instagram.

Hours after Nancy Guthrie was reported missing, NBC News announced that Savannah Guthrie would no longer travel to Milan and Cortina, Italy, to cover the 2026 Winter Olympics. The journalist broke her silence to say that her family believed in “voices raised in unison, in love, in hope.”

“We believe in goodness. we believe in humanity. above all, we believe in Him,” Savannah wrote via Instagram on February 2, 2026. “Thank you for lifting your prayers with ours for our beloved mom, our dearest Nancy, a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant. raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment. We need you.”

The Today host closed the Instagram post with a slogan that would eventually become a rallying cry in the case: “Bring her home.”

Savannah Guthrie Posts Emotional Joint Statement With Siblings Annie and Camron Guthrie

As the statewide search for Nancy Guthrie entered its third day on February 4, 2026, Savannah Guthrie delivered a poignant video statement alongside her siblings, sister Annie and brother Camron Guthrie.

“On behalf of our family, we want to thank all of you for the prayers for our beloved mom, Nancy. We feel them and we continue to believe that she feels them too,” Savannah told her Instagram followers. “Our mom is a kind, faithful, loyal, fiercely loving woman of goodness and light. She is funny, spunky and clever. She has grandchildren who adore her and crowd around her and cover her with kisses. She loves fun and adventure. She is a devoted friend. She is full of kindness and knowledge. Talk to her and you’ll see.”

Annie spoke next, admitting to viewers that the “light” was missing from her entire family’s lives without Nancy.

“Nancy is our mother; we are her children. She is our beacon,” Annie said. “She holds fast to joy and all of life’s circumstances. She chooses joy day after day despite having already passed through great trials of pain and grief. We are always going to be merely human, just normal human people who need our mom. Mama, if you’re listening, we need you to come home. We miss you.”

Describing Nancy as her family’s “heart and home,” Savannah warned that her mother’s “health” and “heart” were in danger because she lives in “constant pain” and needs “medicine to survive.” The Today cohost also addressed reports that police had received a possible ransom note.

“We too have heard the reports about a ransom letter in the media,” she said. “As a family, we are doing everything that we can. We are ready to talk. However, we live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated. We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you, and we are ready to listen. Please, reach out to us.”

Savannah went on, “Mommy, if you are hearing this, you are a strong woman. You are God’s precious daughter, Nancy. We believe and know that even in this valley, He is with you. Everyone is looking for you, Mommy, everywhere. We will not rest. Your children will not rest until we are together again. We speak to you every moment. And we pray without ceasing, and we rejoice in advance that the day that we hold you in our arms again. We love you, Mom.”

Camron spoke last as he encouraged Nancy to “stay strong.”

As reports of multiple ransom notes swirled, a California man, Derrick Callella, was later arrested on February 5 on suspicion of making “an imposter ransom demand,” according to the FBI. The U.S. The Attorney’s Office charged Callella with transmitting a demand for ransom in interstate commerce, and without disclosing his identity, utilizing a telecommunications device with intent to abuse, threaten or harass a person.

Savannah Guthrie Sends Direct Message to Her Mom’s Kidnapper

Savannah Guthrie confirmed in a February 7, 2026, Instagram video that her family had received a message from Nancy Guthrie’s alleged kidnapper.

“We received your message and we understand,” she said in a message where she was flanked by both siblings, Annie and Camron Guthrie. “We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us and we will pay.”

The NBC News reporter captioned her message with a familiar plea, writing: “Bring her home.”

Savannah Guthrie Addresses Ransom Deadline Expiring

On February 9, 2026, Savannah released a new statement in order to “share some thoughts as we enter into another week of this nightmare.” At the time, the latest ransom deadline from a suspected kidnapper was mere hours away from expiring.

“We believe that somehow, some way, [Nancy] is feeling these prayers and that God is lifting her even in this moment and in this darkest place,” the Today cohost said. “We believe our mom is still out there.”

Savannah and her siblings previously appealed directly to the alleged kidnapper in their February 7, 2026, video, though this time they asked for the public’s assistance.

“We need your help. Law enforcement is working tirelessly around the clock, trying to bring her home, trying to find her. She was taken, and we don’t know where, and we need your help,” Savannah said. “So, I’m coming on just to ask you, not just for your prayers, but no matter where you are, even if you’re far from Tucson, if you see anything, you hear anything, if there’s anything at all that seems strange to you, that you report to law enforcement.”

She captioned the video by pleading with viewers, “Please. Bring her home. We need you. She needs you. All of you.”

Savannah Guthrie Reacts to Pictures of Potential Suspect

FBI Director Kash Patel released new security camera images of a possible suspect in the Nancy Guthrie disappearance on February 10, 2026. The photos showed a masked individual approaching Nancy’s property and seemingly trying to disable her security camera.

“We believe she is still alive. Bring her home,” Savannah asked via Instagram following the release of these new photos. “Anyone with information, please contact 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324) or the Pima County Sheriff’s Department 520-351-4900.”

Savannah also reminded the kidnapper that “it is never too late to do the right thing and we are here.”

“We believe. We believe in the essential goodness [of] every human being, and it’s never too late,” she added.

The following day, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos confirmed in a statement that the Guthrie family had been “cleared as possible suspects in this case.”

“The family has been nothing but cooperative and gracious and are victims in this case,” Nanos noted.

Savannah Guthrie Raises Personal Reward to $1 Million

With the one-month anniversary of Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance nearing, Savannah Guthrie announced on February 24, 2026, that her family was increasing its personal reward offer to $1 million. She clarified that the “family reward of up to $1 million will be paid only for recovery of Nancy Guthrie, consistent with FBI criteria for payment of its reward in this case.”

“Someone knows how to find our mom and bring her home,” she captioned the post.

In the accompanying video, Savannah said that her family was still “blowing on the embers of hope” amid Nancy’s disappearance, though they realized she may no longer be alive.

She may have already gone home to the Lord that she loves and is dancing in eaven with her mom and her dad and with her beloved brother, Pierce, and with our daddy, and if this is what is to be, then we will accept it,” she said. “But we need to know where she is. We need her to come home.”

Two days later, she reiterated that “tips can be anonymous [and the] reward can be paid in cash.”

“Please bring her home. You can be anonymous,” she pleaded on February 27, 2026.

The bidding war over Warner Bros. Discovery is over, and it looks like Paramount has emerged as the victor. Netflix has dropped its bid for the century-old studio and production company, and it is now in the hands of Paramount Skydance. This news has rocked the entertainment industry and sparked speculation about the future of Warner Bros. properties, including HBO, CNN, and the DC Comics cinematic universe, which includes Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman among its famous superheroes.

The sale of the Warner Brothers movie collection has been a hot-button issue for those who watch the entertainment industry. Netflix announced that it dropped its bid to acquire the catalog, leaving Paramount as the winning bid. It cost Paramount Skydance Studios an estimated $111 billion to secure a catalog going back more than a century.

Three Bidders Enter, One Bidder Leaves

Netflix was counting on Warner Bros.’s history of success in the entertainment industry to boost its own catalogue, given its relative newcomer status in movie production and distribution. So was Paramount, which made a bid for the floundering studio and its assets in September 2025. Warner Bros. formally rejected this offer in October, which enabled both Comcast and Netflix to make their own bid.

Eventually, Comcast dropped out, and as far as anyone could tell, only Netflix was a viable player on the field with an offer approaching $82.7 billion. This rankled WBD stockholder Ancora Alternatives LLC, which held out its vote on February 11, 2026, on the grounds that Paramount’s complaints of favoritism toward Netflix were true. This reopened the bidding and allowed Paramount until February 23, 2026, to make a qualifying “superior offer” for Warner Bros.

Netflix had three days to make a counteroffer and announced on February 26, 2026, that it would not do so.

Warner Bros Has Been A Tax Write Off For Years

The entire deal has been covered in controversy. For a few years, Warner Bros. has been writing off properties for tax purposes, including entire movies and television shows. This included digital properties people had purchased for themselves that suddenly disappeared from their libraries with no explanation. These tax write-offs were also an indication of how much trouble the company was in.

Paramount’s move to make its initial bid was seen as an attempt at a hostile takeover. Warner Bros. and Paramount have been competitors for over a century. Combining their libraries puts a significant amount of cinematic and television history under one umbrella. A successful Netflix bid would have given Netflix the lion’s share of the streaming market, as it currently controls over 19% while Paramount and Warner Bros. each control almost 11%. As it stands, Paramount is poised to control more of the market than Netflix and would be second only to Disney+ and its streaming partners, Hulu and Fubo.

Warner Bros. and Paramount also own several news services between them, including CNN and CBS. CBS News has been under fire of its own after the ascension of Bari Weiss as news editor. Social media has been abuzz with viewers who are wary of Weiss potentially controlling CNN because they think she is too friendly to President Trump in her editorial decisions. This is despite Weiss being a centrist who has been critical of Trump in her previous work.

More Content Silos In Our Future?

Another issue is the potential for reducing access to media that is already seeing increased siloing of content. Entertainment companies push out their own apps or merge with other companies to consolidate their smaller catalogs, as the union of Paramount and Warner Bros. is about to do. The Paramount Plus app is notoriously buggy and even failed for some users during the Survivor 50 premiere on Wednesday, February 25. Paramount already excludes much of its content produced before the 1980s, and obtaining a long-standing rival’s library could mean the Warner Bros. and HBO collections get the same treatment.

Paramount’s Destruction Of Beloved Properties

Finally, there is the issue of Paramount practically destroying its own properties. Starfleet Academy has been criticized for poor writing, the destruction of Star Trek lore, and gratuitous inclusion in places where such inclusion makes no sense. Coupled with the trajectory of programs like Survivor, the NCIS and CSI franchises, and endless reboots of Matlock, Hawaii Five-O, and MacGuyver, signs show that the entertainment division is heading in a direction that asks serious questions about what will become of Warner Bros. properties like the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the Harry Potter series, and the DC Universe, among others. HBO Max runs numerous classic Akira Kurosawa movies, like The Hidden Fortress and Rashomon: what will become of them under Paramount’s supervision?

Now that the deal is finalized, the next step is to examine it for any antitrust issues it raises. This will require scrutiny from numerous governments besides the United States, because every country Paramount wants to do business in has a certain amount of input in the proceedings.

Neither Netflix nor Paramount should have been able to buy Warner Bros. All the players involved, including Comcast, represent significant portions of the American and foreign streaming markets, as well as entertainment and news media. It shrinks the pool of major entertainment companies to a mere four.

Now, if the deal passes muster with anti-trust laws, two of the oldest studios in Hollywood are about to join forces, for better or for worse.

The fallout of the Fallout Season 2 finale is still hitting some, as the series clings to the top five most-streamed shows on Prime Video in the U.S. Since Fallout came to an explosive end, its place at the top of the charts, albeit facing competition from Beast Games, is the return of Ben Watkins‘ Cross. The detective drama starring Aldis Hodge as the brilliant titular detective from the James Patterson novels has become an enormous hit on the streamer, but with episodes dropping weekly, it still leaves a big hole in the weekend viewing of most subscribers. To try and help you fill your valuable time wisely, here’s a look at three Prime Video shows you need to binge this weekend.

‘The Gray House’ (2026)

Rotten Tomatoes: 50% | IMDb: 6.3/10

One of the hottest new arrivals to Prime Video this week, The Gray House is the perfect way to keep yourself entertained this weekend. Starring Emmy and Golden Globe winner Mary-Louise Parker, the series follows four women who, against the backdrop of the US Civil War, turn their work on the underground railroad into a spy operation set to turn the tide of the war.

“The Gray House is a brutal, unrelenting exploration of the lives of history’s forgotten heroes,” wrote Collider’s Maggie Lovitt in her review of the series, with this historical drama leaving no stone unturned. Boasting eight easy-to-binge episodes, The Gray House features an eye-catching ensemble, headlined by Parker and including Daisy Head, Amethyst Davis, Ben Vereen, Keith David, Paul Anderson, Colin Morgan, Ian Duff, and more.

‘Kingdom’ (2014–2017)

Rotten Tomatoes: 97% | IMDb: 8.5/10

For something gritty, look no further than Kingdom. Perfect for sports fans, the series tells the tale of former MMA fighter turned trainer Alvery Kulina, played by the DCU’s Frank Grillo, who fights to keep his mixed martial arts gym in business whilst also dealing with all manner of personal issues.

Realistic and hugely underrated, Kingdom is the sort of undiscovered gem that is desperate to be unearthed on Prime Video. Having made its way to the platform last year, some have found this 40-episode work of genius featuring one of Grillo’s best performances, and now it’s time for even more to lose themselves in this gripping story.

1

‘Detectorists’ (2014–2022)

Rotten Tomatoes: 100% | IMDb: 8.6/10

Simply one of the best British comedies of the last 15 years, Detectorists follows two eccentric metal detectorists, Andy (Mackenzie Crook) and Lance (Toby Jones), who spend their days bickering and searching for undiscovered treasure. Dreaming of one day unearthing a life-changing fortune, will they ever realize their goal?

A blissfully simple comedy that puts its emphasis on the talent of its stars and the relationship of their characters, Detectorists is the perfect cozy getaway after a tough week of work. A winner of two BAFTA awards, among many other accolades during its run, the series is a true diamond in a sea of forgettable sitcoms and is perhaps the best work in creator Crook’s career.

In the last decade, the fantasy genre has exploded on TV, with nearly every streaming service offering its own epic fantasy story, ranging from HBO’s growing Game of Thrones universe, to Netflix’s The Witcher, and Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time. While these shows have made the genre bigger than ever, fantasy has a long history on network TV that has been forgotten. Years before these large-scale productions became so common, network TV was home to many fantasy stories. Unfortunately, as the genre gained prominence, these smaller productions have faded away.

While the spectacle of recent fantasies can be thrilling, a well-written, creative series doesn’t need a massive budget to thrive. Some of the best fantasy series have come from network stations with limited budgets and practical effects. Examples like Merlin, The Vampire Diaries, and Once Upon a Time managed to develop a large fanbase without the advantages that come with a streamer, but this kind of show is no longer made. In 2026, we need to remember the joys of network fantasies and bring back this forgotten section of TV, especially since this format could address some of the current issues modern fantasy series are facing. After all, can’t we have a show with dragons or fairies before or after episodes of shows like Matlock, Tracker, The Rookie, and Law & Order?

Fantasy Series Don’t Need Big ‘Game of Thrones’ Budgets To Work

The recent trend has been to create fantasy shows with massive special effects and give them some of the largest budgets of any show. While that method has led to several amazing series, it isn’t necessary for every fantasy show.What is required is a fascinating story and lovable characters. Series likeMerlin and Legend of the Seekerserve as prime examples of this. These shows are less about the epic battles and sprawling worlds, but more about the characters, and that’s why they don’t need quite as much spectacle as more recent entries into the genre.

TakeMerlin, for example, which may not have the bloody wars of aGame of Thrones, but has the relationship between Arthur (Bradley James) and Merlin (Colin Morgan) that kept fans engaged for five seasons and continues to be popular. Network fantasies may be different, but they can succeed without the bells and whistles that streamers use.While streamers aim for cinematic effects that leave the audience in awe, network fantasies typically rely on practical effects and cheesy magical elements that ultimately give the network fantasy shows their charm. They may look different, but there is a place for both large-scale epics and the smaller, more character-driven shows in fantasy, if only the networks would start to prioritize them once more.

Network Fantasies Can Avoid the Genre’s Biggest Problems

As the fantasy genre has moved away from network shows, a major problem has become prevalent, especially with these big-budget series: streamers have been cutting back the number of episodes and taking very long in between seasons. While this is true throughout TV, it’s an especially noticeable problem for fantasies, which require thorough world-building that simply cannot be done effectively in eight or ten episodes. Network shows have an advantage here as they typically have a bigger episode count, and, on a smaller budget, could likely have a quicker turnaround between seasons while also having seasons that are longer than what streamers can generate.

Not only do longer seasons allow shows to explore the magic within these stories, but they also help the show’s longevity. It cannot be ignored that, as streamers have taken over the genre, too many fantasy series have been prematurely cancelled while network fantasies often lasted much longer. The inflated budgets of modern fantasy series make them easy targets, but network TV allows more time to develop the story. While there are examples of shows that didn’t last on networks, the fantasy shows of the 2000s and 2010s usually reached a conclusion, and many lasted for several seasons. With examples like Merlin, Legend of the Seeker, Charmed, Vampire Diaries, Once Upon a Time, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and so many more, it’s clear that network TV can make memorable fantasy series. TV thrives on variety, and that is what the fantasy genre needs right now.

Young and the Restless spoilers for next week indicate Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) is going way too far with yet another kidnapping—a real one this time. Also, Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) goes all out to get what he wants, but the question is: will it work?

We have the latest Y&R spoilers for the week of March 2nd through the 6th. Before we dive into the scoop on Victor, Cane, Nick Newman‘s (Joshua Morrow) continuing spiral, Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) getting an offer. And Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) being in crisis.

Young and the Restless Next Week Spoilers: Sharon and Victoria Worry About Nick

Let’s get things started with Nick Newman and his very concerning behavior. At the end of this week, we saw Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) chatting at Crimson Lights. His sister and his ex-wife are both really worried about Nick. Victoria is hoping that Nick is not going to go off looking for Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) on his own, but I kind of think he will.

Sharon tells Victoria about the threatening text messages that Matt has been sending to Noah Newman (Lucas Adams). And Sharon also tells Victoria that she is really worried because Nick hasn’t fully recovered from his surgery. Sharon said she’s afraid that he’s getting dependent on the pain pills, which Victoria had warned him about.

Young and the Restless: Nick at Rock Bottom?

While they’re talking, Nick is outside looking at his diminishing baggie of fentanyl pills. He is trying so hard to fight the lure of addiction, but it’s too late. He’s got that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) gene, unfortunately. Nick takes a pill out of the baggie but then throws it onto the ground. However, like desperate junkies do, Nick picks it up off the dirty snow and pops it right in his mouth.

He goes back into the coffee shop just as Matt sends a text to Nick asking if the $5 million offer to disappear forever is still on the table. Nick tells Sharon the cops can’t do anything; Detective James Burrow (Matt Cohen) basically encouraged them to take on Matt themselves. That’s what you want—a detective that encourages vigilantism.

Sharon agrees that they should try and lure Matt out. Nick says he has an idea to trap Matt, which I’m guessing involves a cash payoff. It looks like Sharon might be left behind and Nick may go off on his own and get in over his head. Spoilers for next week have Noah wanting to know if Sharon’s heard from Nick because Noah’s been trying to reach his dad all day. Nick is not answering his calls or texts. And Sharon is also concerned. Things are going to go sideways because Nick decides he needs to protect his family while he’s drug-addled and in pain.

Phyllis Summers Gains an Ally and Billy Abbott Protects His Empire on Young and the Restless

Now let’s talk about Phyllis. At the end of this week, she was real happy to see Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman) drop by her office at Newman Enterprises. Phyllis ends up going out to breakfast with her and is impressed that Lauren actually has no issue with Phyllis taking down Victor and getting her revenge.

Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) is surprised to see Lauren out with her, openly supporting Phyllis. Lauren basically says she doesn’t owe Victor anything and doesn’t care if everybody knows. I love this. And I’m sure Lauren is hoping Victor stays out of power so that Michael Baldwin (Christian Jules Leblanc) won’t be working for him.

Billy is making a vowing to himself that he won’t ever let anyone take Chancellor from him like happened before. But things are about to take a twist. Later, Billy tells Phyllis not to let anybody talk her out of her success or what she’s got. That advice may come back around to him when he’s in a really rough position.

Young and the Restless: Billy Pursues Sally Spectra as Audra Charles Issues a Warning

We also have Billy focused on his upcoming dinner date with Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope). Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) told Sally, “Don’t show up for it,” but Sally says it’s going to give her closure with Billy. Audra’s worried that Billy is going to slither his way back into Sally’s life.

Billy told Sally on Friday that he doesn’t see why they can’t be together personally and just ignore the professional side of each other’s lives. Sally disagreed. I agree with Audra that Billy is going to work real hard to slip back into Sally’s sheets. And I really hope she shuts him down.

Next week, that warning Billy gave to Phyllis is going to crop back up. Cane is back at it, trying to get Phyllis to help him get Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and the kids back from Victor. Mind you, Phyllis is certain—and she’s right—that Lily and the kids are not at risk. Victor is lying to Cane and gaslighting him.

Cane suggested that maybe Phyllis could trick Victor long enough for him to get Lily back. And then Phyllis could still keep everything. She seemed to consider it, but I don’t think she’s going to take any risks. Cane circles back to her with a scheme. And Phyllis asks, “Okay, Cane, what are you going to do to try and sway me?” He tells Phyllis he’s got something she’s going to want so badly she won’t be able to refuse him.

Victor Newman Kidnaps Jack Abbott in a Shocking Power Move

Now let’s talk about the whole new kidnapping that happens this coming week. Billy’s going to head over to the Abbott mansion and deliver some really bad news to Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters). This is back to Billy saying, “Don’t let anybody talk you out of giving up what you have,” because he’s about to be in a dilemma where he considers that advice himself.

Kyle asks Billy if Victor kidnapped his dad, Jack. Billy says that Victor just told him if he doesn’t hand back Chancellor by the end of the day, they’ll never see Jack again. That wasn’t on my bingo card. I guess that’s where Victor was when he was out of town—laying plans to abduct Jack.

I hope Diane makes a beeline over and tells Nikki what her horrible husband Victor has done. Diane should hold Nikki’s feet to the fire and tell her, “You better go get Jack back. Do whatever you have to do. Shut Victor down. Stop this.”

Melissa Claire Egan Shares Diagnosis of Coronary Heart Disease

On a final note, we have some a bit of scary news. Melissa Claire Egan, who plays Chelsea Lawson Newman, recently shared that she was just diagnosed with coronary heart disease after a routine annual exam. It came up with some blood results that were off. And they did some follow-up tests.

She revealed that she has a buildup of plaque in one of her arteries that can lead to a heart attack or stroke. It is rare for a 44-year-old woman to be diagnosed with coronary heart disease, but the good news is they found it and they’re on top of it. It has not progressed that far, so we hope that Missy stays in good health.

Come back tomorrow for our full weekly Young and the Restless spoilers and predictions for the week of March 2nd through the 6th.

Several stars from the Bravo universe are mourning the death of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Mary Cosby’s son, Robert Cosby Jr.

News broke on Wednesday, February 25, that Robert Jr. died at age 23. TMZ reported that he died in Utah following a possible overdose. His cause of death has not been confirmed.

Authorities confirmed to Us Weekly that they responded to a call on Monday, February 23, for a “full arrest” and “medical emergency.” They discovered Robert Jr. dead on arrival. A death investigation is open and active.

“We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Mary’s beloved son, Robert Jr. Mary is a cherished member of our family, and our thoughts, love, and deepest condolences are with her and her loved ones during this incredibly difficult time,” Bravo shared in a statement to Us on Wednesday.

Mary, 53, had been candid about her efforts to support her son amid his struggles with substance abuse. In a 2025 Us cover story, Mary shared that she was “shocked” when she learned about Robert Jr.’s battle.

“I immediately started blaming myself, because I thought, ‘You can’t judge him and his life and his choices,’” she said at the time. “I don’t believe in judging people. I’m just not a judger. I don’t like judging people, and I don’t like to do it. … If he’s opening up enough to tell me something this crucial, then why would I judge? I have no choice but to sit there and receive it and accept it and hope that I can help him.”

While Mary shared that her son “had a little bit of a setback” in his recovery at the time, she prayed that he “stays good,” adding, “I can honestly sit here and say he’s doing very good.”
