Here’s How Scrappy Recently Made Headlines With His Family

As The Shade Room previously reported, Scrappy recently made headlines with his family last month. At the time, Shakira, the mother of his youngest child, shared a photo showing that Scrappy’s ex-wife, Bambi, was babysitting their son. At the time, Shakira shared that she was away for work. However, she was so thrilled by Bambi’s help and her son being able to spend time with Scrappy.

Gayle King is not dating her best friend, Oprah Winfrey! She put those rumors to rest while appearing on Wednesday’s episode of the podcast, ‘Call Me Daddy.’ These rumors have BEEN around, following Oprah and Gayle, throughout their entire friendship. Also on the episode, Gayle opened up about what it’s been like on the receiving end and how she feels about the rumors now.

Gayle King Says She’s Unbothered By The Rumors About Her & Oprah Winfrey

While chatting with Alex Cooper, Gayle admitted that the “lesbian couple” headlines and speculation used to really bother her, especially following her divorce in 1993. She and William Bumpus had split after 11 years of marriage and two children together. Amid her breakup, Gayle King told Cooper that The National Enquirer claimed her secret gay affair with Oprah Winfrey was one of the reasons for her divorce.

“Number one, if we were gay, we would tell you because, believe me, there’s nothing wrong with it. It’s just that I prefer a man.”

These days, Gayle King says she’s unbothered, mostly, by the whispers of a romance. “I’ve gotten to the point in my life where very few things get to me because when you go on social media, it is an accelerator on hate.”

She added, “As long as I feel good about what I’m doing and the people I respect and trust are okay with it, especially someone whose opinion I value, otherwise, you’ll drive yourself nuts. So now, I really don’t care.” 

Two years ago, the iconic best friends addressed these very same rumors! The appeared on the series, ‘The Moments That Make Us.’ Gayle said the same thing then that she told Alex Cooper on her podcast this week. King said she and Oprah would tell the public if they were dating each other. Winfrey shared that their tight friendship is a rare sight and probably why people speculate there’s more between them.

“The reason why I think our friendship has worked is because Gayle is happier, not happy, but happier for me for any kind of success or victory or challenge I get through than I am for myself. And I feel as happy as she does — I can’t be happier than, cannot surpass Gayle. You cannot out-happy her. I am equally as happy for her,” Oprah said at the time.

Gayle Shares How Speculations Affected Her Love Life

However, back in the earlier days of their 50-year friendship? Gayle King used to beg Oprah Winfrey to shut it all down using her show! The rumors, Gayle alleges, were interfering with her love life and even getting a Saturday night date. But while she encouraged Oprah to speak out, King says her best friend would urge her to let it go. “Well that’s fine for you to say. You have somebody, I don’t,” Gayle said of her response to Winfrey.

That’s Her Bestie! How They Became Friends

Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King first met while working at a TV station in Baltimore. When a snowstorm was about to hit one day, Oprah invited Gayle to crash at her house and they’ve “literally been friends ever since.”

Days of Our Lives spoilers for June 1-5, 2026 indicate Amy Choi (Shi Ne Nielson) is pressing to have those she holds responsible for Sophia’s (Rachel Boyd) apparent suicide punished.

Meanwhile, EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) hypnotherapy may unveil some shocking memories. And before we get into all the hot stuff for the first week of June, as we always do on early edition day, we’re going to start with what’s coming the rest of this week and then dive into next week.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers Wednesday, May 27th: Amy Choi Out for Revenge

So, on Wednesday, May 27th, Amy wants vengeance. This week, she’s talking to somebody up at the pub. Maybe it’s her husband, Jason Choi (Steven O Young). And Amy is saying she wants Holly prosecuted for manslaughter. Tate Harmon (Kyle Peterkin) is pushing Holly to do the right thing on Wednesday.

So, it looks like they may have attended Sophia’s memorial/prayer service because Holly’s in a black dress this week and Tate is in a very nice suit. And I do wonder if he’s advising Holly to show some remorse and some sympathy so that Amy will stop chasing revenge because it looks like Tate and Holly may walk into the pub and may hear Amy talking about wanting Holly prosecuted.

Days Spoilers: Marlena Hypnotizes EJ

EJ is put under hypnosis by Marlena Evans (Diedre Hall). And we already saw Cat panicking when EJ said he was going to have a session to find out more about their past in Italy. Of course, Cat’s worried about ISA stuff, but we know the only thing on EJ’s mind is romance and of course keeping Cat away from Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd).

But Cat just got a reminder from Jennifer Horton (Melissa Reeves) this week that there is never going to be a chance in hell that Chad and Cat can date. Jennifer’s truce offer does not extend to anything romantic between them.

Also, Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) brings Arianna Horton (Vico Escorcia) up to speed on how her life has imploded because I guess she’s moving back home. So, will Gabi tell Ari the truth about her sneaky corporate spying and that she betrayed Philip and got dumped?

It’ll be interesting to see if Ari lays into Gabi and says she deserved to be dumped or if she gives her sympathy because Ari doesn’t know it yet, but Gabi also pulled a sneaky stunt behind her back, paying Liam Selejko (Hank Northrop) to leave town.

Also, Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson) comforts his stepmom, Paulina Price (Jackée Harry), who left Abe Carver (James Reynolds) so that he could reunite with Lexie Carver. (Nikki Crawford). If you remember, Theo already told his mom, Lexie, that Paulina has been there for him and Theo really cares about her.

Thursday, May 28th on Days of Our Lives

Thursday, May 28th, Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Chanel Dupree DiMera (Raven Bowens) share a hopeful moment, so they may feel little baby Quattro kicking for the first time. They’re also probably going to have to discuss the best route for Chanel’s cancer treatment because at least there are some options. We’ll meet Javi’s new boyfriend, firefighter Gus (Michael Ocampo).

Javi is on the way to see Gus when he runs into Leo Stark (Greg Rikkart). Now, I wonder if he is stalking Javi or is this an accidental run-in. Abe tells Theo the truth on Thursday, and this may be about Abe being torn between Lexie and Paulina because Abe had grieved Lexie’s death and waited years and then he found a new love.

So, this isn’t an easy thing. It’s pretty complicated for Abe. Meanwhile, Lexie asks EJ for some answers. Now, Abe told him to stay away, but EJ’s not going to avoid his sister, and I’m sure he tells Lexie that it was Stefano DiMera’s (Joseph Mascolo) greatest wish that they find a way to bring Lexie back, and that Dr. Rolf’s been working towards this for years.

Friday, May 29th on DOOL: Marlena Visits John’s Grave

Friday, May 29th, we’ve got Eli Grant (Lamon Archey) joining his family in Salem this week, and he is there to comfort Lani Price Grant (Sal Stowers) by the end of the week. A lot is going on in the family. Chanel’s cancer and Paulina split with Abe and the uncertainty caused by Lexie’s resurrection.

We’re also going to see Foster (Miles Anderson) asking Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) out for dinner. So, I wonder if she will agree if it’s a just friends thing. I honestly can’t imagine that Julie’s ready to move on to something new romantically after losing her darling Doug Williams (Bill Hayes) whom she was with for decades.

Aunt Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfey) listens as her niece Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) opens up about her struggles. It’s got to be about Sophia’s alleged suicide and Amy’s need for revenge. Marlena gets support as she faces John Black (Drake Hogestyn) one-year death anniversary. Technically, just by the way, John died on June 2nd, which is next Tuesday. So, I hope we get some scenes with Marlena on the actual anniversary of his passing. So, Marlena’s heading out to John’s grave. She’s got some flowers and she’s going to sit and spend time with her beloved husband.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Brady and Belle Make a Discovery

That same day, Belle Black (Martha Madison) and Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) are checking out the chess set that Stefano left their dad, John. And Brady’s looking at the queen, I’m sure, thinking about the whole queen of the night thing. And then Belle notices that there’s a piece missing and it is a pawn. Brady and Belle are going to discover something. So maybe it’s a clue hidden by Stefano, maybe inside the queen, maybe it’s some sort of scavenger hunt to find the pawn and whatever that might mean. It could be a whole mystery.

Week of June 1st-5th on Days of Our Lives: Big News in the Writers Room

The week of June 1st through the 5th. By the way, big news. Apparently Ryan Quan is back to Days as co-headwriter. He will be writing alongside Gene Marie Ford. Her current co-headwriter Paula Quickley is retiring. Ryan worked alongside Ron Carlivati during his seven-year tenure as headwriter.

Ryan was Ron’s story consultant. And Ryan was actually on Days of our Lives working in various roles behind the scenes for 20 years in a writing capacity before he left to go to General Hospital last year where he’s been working as a breakdown writer. So, this could be a really invigorating change in the writer room, but of course, we’re not going to see its effect for another 10 months because of the lengthy tape to air delay.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Belle & Brady Mystery Ahead

Brady and Belle dig deeper into the mystery Stefano left behind after they discovered something interesting about the chess set that Marlena did not want, of course, because it came from Stefano. We’ll see what else they learn besides the fact that a pawn is missing. Brady may also find out that Sophia was baiting Holly online to say those horrible but true things.

I’m sure since the police aren’t looking into it, Brady and Black Patch might start looking into the digital footprint of what Sophia did in her last hours. That might also lead them towards Kristen, which would make sense for the gun that they found, which they said no way should a teenage girl have been able to get a hold of a weapon like that.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Leo Turns to Marlena?

Jack, Jennifer, and JJ Deveraux (Casey Moss) are going to go visit Abigail Deveraux’s (Marci Miller) grave. I’m sure Chad goes along as well. It’s been four years since she was stabbed to death by Clyde Weston (James Read), and there’s still questions because they don’t have her remains. I’d honestly be thrilled if EJ revealed on Abby’s deathversary that he’s got her in a person pod.

JJ may be officially hired as an EMT again, and he may wind up as a partner to Javi. And Leo may turn to Marlena again after he sees Javi in love with Gus. Plus, Liam is going to be packing to leave now that Gabi got his parole sorted. And I doubt Ari is going to let him go without explaining. So, will Liam confirm that her mom Gabi bribed him to leave Salem?

Chanel and Johnny discuss the pros and cons of chemo while she’s pregnant. Surgery makes sense, but anything more invasive that might affect the baby would be a hard sell for Chanel. Lexie should be out of the hospital soon, but is Abe really going to take Lexie home to the place he was living with Paulina? Eli may assist Rafe and Cat with the ongoing EJ investigation? And Holly may need a lawyer very soon.

Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is the kind of horror movie that feels less like a film and more like a bad dream you can’t wake yourself from. Expanding on the viral analog horror phenomenon that took over YouTube, the A24 adaptation transforms the unsettling “liminal space” concept into a full scale psychological nightmare that is equal parts atmospheric, experimental, and deeply unnerving. While some critics argue the film occasionally loses itself in repetition, there’s no denying Parsons has created one of the most visually haunting horror experiences of the decade.

What makes Backrooms work so well is its commitment to dread over spectacle. Parsons understands that the fear doesn’t come from monsters alone. It comes from isolation, endless yellow hallways, flickering fluorescent lights, and the terrifying feeling that reality itself has broken. One early reaction described the film as “horror stripped to its essentials,” while another called it “a nightmare with its own weather.”

Chiwetel Ejiofor delivers a surprisingly emotional performance as Clark, a broken furniture store owner whose discovery beneath his basement pulls him into an impossible labyrinth of alternate realities. Renate Reinsve also shines, grounding the film emotionally even when the narrative intentionally spirals into surrealism. Their performances give the movie a human core that elevates it beyond internet creepypasta territory.

Visually, Backrooms is stunning. Parsons and cinematographer Jeremy Cox weaponize empty office spaces, bland commercial architecture, and endless corridors into something genuinely terrifying. The production design creates a suffocating sense of unease that lingers long after the credits roll. Critics have compared the atmosphere to The Blair Witch Project, Severance, Skinamarink, and even The Shining, but Backrooms still feels uniquely its own.

That said, the film will not work for everyone. Some reviews criticized its intentionally fragmented storytelling and repetitive structure, arguing that the movie occasionally mistakes ambiguity for depth. The slower pacing and abstract narrative may frustrate viewers expecting a traditional horror experience packed with jump scares and straightforward answers.

Still, even its critics seem to acknowledge that Parsons is doing something different. At just 20 years old, the filmmaker has managed to bridge internet horror culture with modern theatrical filmmaking in a way Hollywood rarely allows. Backrooms feels like the beginning of a new era where creators raised on YouTube, gaming culture, found footage, and analog horror are reshaping what mainstream horror can look and feel like.

Backrooms may not be the cleanest or most accessible horror movie of the year, but it is absolutely one of the most memorable. It’s eerie, ambitious, deeply uncomfortable, and unlike almost anything else currently playing in theaters. For horror fans craving atmosphere, tension, and pure existential dread, Kane Parsons delivers a terrifying trip worth taking.

I still remember 2009 like it was yesterday when my mind was blown away seeing James Cameron’s Pandora. Sitting in that dark cinema with 3D glasses perched on my nose for the first time it definitely was one of my favourite cinematic experiences in my lifetime at the time. Seeing those blue people didn’t just fill the screen, they filled our lives. This become a proper family affair with my family huddled together, completely mesmerised by the visual effects and intriguing story. When I got the opportunity to walked the red carpet recently at the UK Premiere last week. It was extra special dragging my sibling along to keep the tradition alive and kicking.

And wow – the premiere itself! It was an absolute pleasure seeing Sigourney Weaver face-to-face. Those of you who know me know sci-fi’s my favourite genre. I still recall watching the original Alien back in the day, with the second one being my all-time favourite which I’d rewind dozens of times on my dad’s VHS player.

It was a great shame Zoe Saldana couldn’t make it, but I was so happy to see a handful of the cast do the film’s introduction before the legendary James Cameron spoke live by satellite from New Zealand.

Picking up months after The Way of Water, the story dives straight into the Sullys’ grief over Neteyam’s death. It’s a wound that bleeds through every single frame. Jake’s retreated into full soldier mode once again to defend his family and people. While Neytiri’s rage is threatening to shatter her spirit. Now they’re up against a new foe: the ash people, which is led by Oona Chaplin’s scorching Varang. Lo’ak’s guilt drives the emotional core, while Kiri’s connection to Eywa deepens into something almost transcendent.

I’ve had such great discussions with the film community after the screening and in the days afterwards. Some individuals reckon it retreads old ground, and others call it the franchise’s most emotional chapter. Me? I’m right in the middle. My only negative thing to say is the runtime 3 hours 17 minutes. Yeah, it does feel like a trip to Greece (long, but honestly worth every second), and a couple of story moments are pretty predictable. But ohh my God, the visuals? are Jaw-dropping stunning.

It’s quite remarkable how good Russell Carpenter’s cinematography is. His made every frame look delightful, especially in 3D. Digital visuals effects have continue to look even more realistic, and breathtaking to look at over the years.

Simon Franglen’s score thunders right through your chest and into your heart. And as for the cast? Saldaña and Sam Worthington performances where near their career-best.

There’s no two ways about it, this sits right up there with the original. Avatar: Fire And Ash is slightly better than its predecessor, if I’m being honest. As I posted on my social media recently i said “Cameron’s gifted us a high-flying, heart-racing spectacle that leaves you breathless and inspired.

This is weird to admit, but here goes: one of my favorite things about Blu-ray restorations of older media is discovering the craziest details that were previously hidden by crappy VHS tapes and CRT televisions. For example, when Star Wars finally came to Blu-ray, I was less excited about seeing the Death Star blow up and more excited about answering a question I’d had for decades: what did Luke Skywalker pack in his little space lunchbox before heading off to Dagobah? We see Yoda and R2-D2 squabble over a hot dog, but on my vintage Star Wars cassettes, it was always hard to tell what else Luke had packed for his journey to the other side of the galaxy.

Once Star Wars came to Blu-ray, I had an answer … sort of. We could now see in perfect detail what was in Luke’s Rebel lunchbox, but the contents looked so damn weird that online fans are still debating what the heck the aspiring Jedi brought to snack on for the long trip. Eventually, Luke Skywalker actor Mark Hamill took to social media to offer us the surprising answer: the lunchbox contents that Yoda went so wild over (effectively risking the entire galaxy by testing Luke) contained “mixed nuts/mint & orange Tic-Tacs/sesame sticks/crackers- basically airline food.

Intergalactic Lunchables?

When Luke Skywalker was freezing nearly to death on Hoth, he was visited by the Force ghost of Obi-Wan Kenobi. His old master encouraged him to go to Dagobah to receive training from Yoda, the Jedi Master who trained Obi-Wan. When Luke visited the swampy planet, he was surprised to discover a little green critter who spoke in a backwards language and tried to steal Luke’s food. Eventually, Luke is shocked to learn that the diminutive being before him was Yoda, and all of this was a test of the young man’s patience. Had Yoda listened to his instincts, he would have refused to train Luke, effectively dooming the galaxy to Imperial rule.

Yoda was ready to fight a cranky droid for some of Luke’s food, which always amused fans. Now, when high-quality images of Luke’s lunchbox hit social media, fans always have a field day guessing (or simply joking) about what the hero of the Rebellion has been eating. One amusing reply was “bro packed graham crackers and loose hotdogs.” Others compared Luke’s meal to Lunchables and Kid Cuisine boxes. My favorite comment? “It’s like a bento box but sh*te.” The fan commentary was better than anything Star Wars has given us in years, which made up for the fact that, presumably, we’d never get a real answer.

Jedi Secrets, Revealed

Except we did! Mark Hamill is a prolific X user, and he hopped on the social media platform to comment on the contents of his (as one fan lovingly dubbed it) snackle box. According to the actor, the contents included “mixed nuts/mint & orange Tic-Tacs/sesame sticks/crackers–basically airline food.” Chances are that producers chose these items simply for their aesthetics, but it’s fairly wild to imagine anyone eating this stuff. Like, who wants to pair their loose hot dogs with sesame sticks, or their graham crackers with mint Tic-Tacs? Honestly, this looks less like a soldier’s rations and more like a struggle meal put together by the hungriest stoner.

The funniest thing is that this is the kind of food Yoda was willing to fight R2-D2 for. It was risky to engage the droid in the first place. The last time a Jedi saw R2 in action, the little droid was zipping around on a jetpack and catching his enemies on fire. Hell, even a jolt of electricity in that damp environment might have been enough to stop Yoda’s heart. Plus, the fact that this was part of Yoda testing Luke is insane. Can you imagine driving the galaxy’s only hope away and having to tell Obi-Wan’s ghost you doomed billions of lives because you went gremlin mode over some freakin’ airline food?

Fortunately, all’s well that ends well. Luke passed Yoda’s bizarre test and received the training he needed to confront Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine. Thanks to him, both villains were defeated, and the Rebellion emerged as the victors in the nastiest civil war in the universe. Now that it’s all said and done, we’re left with one question: when Luke kissed his sister, do you think his breath tasted like the mint Tic-Tacs or the orange ones?

Justin Hartley broke his silence on his hit show Tracker‘s big relocation change for season 4.

“In terms of tone and character, I don’t think it’ll impact the show at all,” Hartley told The Wrap on Monday, May 25. “Our show is a road show. Our character goes from town to town across the United States of America and meets people from all different walks of life and helps them out. These strangers become kind of his family in a way.”

The actor expressed excitement about making the move to Los Angeles.

“To be able to shoot in a different place that gives us different landscapes, we’re able to go to places — New York, D.C., the desert, Texas, the beach,” Hartley noted. “It just opens up our world in terms of landscape, which is such a big character of our show.”

Despite the shift, Hartley expressed gratitude for the show’s time in Canada.

“We built a really great, wonderful show and we did it in Vancouver for the first three years. Just, inevitably, as things go, the show has to evolve,” he added. “We’re not really interested in doing something just for the sake of doing it. I want to push the envelope and I want it to be something different, so we’re excited about it. It’s going to be very good for the show and for the audience.”

Based on Jeffery Deaver‘s novel The Never Game, Tracker follows Hartley’s Colter around the country as he helps to find missing people and solve mysterious cases. After spending three seasons filming in Vancouver, news broke in May that Tracker was awarded $48 million on $129 million in qualified expenditures, prompting its move.

Tracker is 20th Television’s biggest series to be brought back to California with the help of a tax credit. Before that, Prime Video’s Fallout moved from New York to Los Angeles, while Dan Fogelman’s upcoming NFL drama, The Land, was given a $42.8 million tax credit.

“I’m proud of what we built in Vancouver. I’m also very excited we’re bringing Tracker to L.A.,” Hartley said in a statement at the time. “I’m looking forward to continuing to tell these stories alongside the new, fresh places we’ll be heading to next. Most importantly, I want to thank the fans for showing up for us every step of the way. We couldn’t do this without you.”

TV shows can earn an additional 5 percent tax credit bonus — on top of the 35 percent base credit — for qualified expenditures incurred outside the 30-mile zone that covers the Greater Los Angeles area and surrounding communities, according to Deadline.

Thank You!

Tax credits for relocation are being awarded to shows for their projected outsized economic effect, with jobs being created for Los Angeles-based crews and local businesses being boosted by returning production.

“Location is a huge part of the storytelling on Tracker,” showrunner Elwood Reid told Deadline. “We’re so grateful to the crew and people of Vancouver who made the first three seasons of this hit drama possible, and are simultaneously thrilled to be able to kick off the fourth season of Tracker by filming in Los Angeles, thanks to the tax incentive program that supports bringing production back to California.”

Tracker has been renewed for season 4 and is streaming on Paramount+.

Victoria Beckham is addressing the public regarding her personal family values and how she handles her children’s adult lives.

The former pop star clarified her stance on motherhood following recent friction and open criticism from within her household.

This comes after her son, Brooklyn Beckham, published explosive claims about her and her husband, accusing them of manipulating the public narrative about their family. 

The fashion mogul opened up about the way she and her husband, David Beckham, raise their four children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper.

Speaking candidly during a new interview with The Times, the 52-year-old mother explained that she and her former football star partner prioritize nurturing their children’s individual passions without steering them toward any predetermined careers. 

Addressing her core perspective on modern motherhood, she explained, “There’s a big difference between supporting children with what they want to do and forcing them.” She firmly defended her historical track record as a parent, saying, “All we’ve ever done with any of the children is support them, help them, and encourage them.”

The entrepreneur further expressed immense pride in her adult kids discovering their own sense of purpose, noting that none of them were forced to replicate their parents’ specific career paths. 

To illustrate this freedom, she pointed out that her three sons all played football when they were younger, but eventually chose to step away from the sport individually to explore different paths.

While acknowledging that her household is in an incredibly fortunate financial position to test out different ventures, she consistently urges them to keep aiming high, sharing that she encourages them to “dream big and dream even bigger.”

Victoria Beckham Also Addressed Family Controversy And Corporate Identity

The independence and unique career choices of Victoria’s adult children remain a central theme for the mother-of-four amid escalating household complications. The pop star recently addressed the ongoing controversy regarding her family dynamics during a major appearance on Emma Grede’s “Aspire” podcast. 

Notably, this public discussion took place months after her eldest son, Brooklyn, made explosive allegations that his parents consistently prioritized public promotion and global perception over genuine human connection.

While the fashion designer avoided explicitly naming her estranged eldest son, her narrative clearly served as a direct reaction to the worsening domestic tension. She strongly disputed the idea that her household operates like a cold, calculated commercial enterprise, per The Blast.

The former musician explained that their massive commercial identity was never a planned business move but rather a byproduct of their individual success in the entertainment and sports industries before they coupled up. 

The Beckham Family Is Reportedly Hurt By The Long-Standing Feud

While the parents insist that their professional brand was never a calculated business maneuver, their domestic life is being severely tested by their ongoing feud with Brooklyn. 

The Blast reported that the famous household has been left deeply saddened by their ongoing rift with their eldest son, which currently shows absolutely no signs of stopping. 

According to inside reports, the family members completely misjudged the situation and never expected the hostile atmosphere to last nearly an entire year. 

While the parents and younger siblings have been spotted putting on a united front during various public outings, an insider confirmed that David and Victoria are privately devastated by the silent treatment. 

Victoria Beckham Carefully Responds To Her Son’s Instagram Accusations

The deep private pain within the household prompted a guarded public response from the family matriarch. Victoria used a recent media appearance to carefully address the situation while firmly establishing her boundaries.

Sitting down for a revealing conversation, the 51-year-old entrepreneur navigated the highly sensitive topic with extreme caution, intentionally avoiding calling her son by name throughout the interview. 

Defending her parenting record against the heavy media scrutiny, she stated, “All we’ve ever tried to do is protect our children and love our children. And you know, that’s all I really want to say about it,” per The Blast. 

Victoria Beckham Ignores Public Negativity Surrounding High-Profile Marriage

The public allegations regarding her parenting choices are not the only form of outside scrutiny the media personality has had to navigate throughout her career. Alongside the intense focus on her household dynamics, Victoria has spent decades dealing with a constant global microscope on her marriage to David. 

Reflecting on her long history in the public eye, the former pop star explained that dealing with constant relationship rumors has simply become a normal part of her daily life. According to The Blast, she noted that the chatter’s longevity has taught her to separate her real life from public gossip. 

The fashion icon explained that their mutual commitment keeps them grounded regardless of what the public writes about them. In addition to mastering how to tune out public negativity, the entertainer also credited her recent Netflix documentary projects for helping her let go of her natural need to be in charge of every situation. 

Vivienne Jolie-Pitt‘s uncanny resemblance to her mother, Angelina Jolie, continues to make waves.

The teenager was photographed out in L.A. on a casual outing, and one thing is sure: the looks don’t lie. The mother-daughter resemblance has been a topic in the media, as many waste no time pointing out how she is the younger version of her mom in style and looks.

Vivienne Jolie-Pitt has chosen to walk in her mom, Angelina Jolie’s, footsteps in the industry as well. In recent years, she has been building her career as an actress and film producer.

Vivienne got caught in the camera lens while enjoying her peak Gen Z life in California. The teenager was having a field day with sunshine, fun drinks, and no Hollywood drama as she stepped out with a friend.

A photo of the 17-year-old uploaded to TMZ shows her sitting at a table at Erewhon in a casual fit, enjoying the viral Hailey Bieber smoothie. She is seen smiling brightly, seemingly enjoying the deep conversation with her friend.

Vivienne kept things super low-key for the outing, rocking a black t-shirt and brown pants while her short hair was laid back. Even in the simple fit, she looked more and more like her famous mom as she enjoyed the California weather, thriving quietly like the rest of her siblings.

The Jolie-Pitt Twins Are Spitting Images Of Their Parents

Vivienne and her twin brother Knox previously made headlines for their striking resemblance to their parents, Angelina and Brad Pitt. The twins were spotted last year in Los Angeles when they stepped out together for a brief visit to the grocery store.

They rocked matching casual outfits, both donning white t-shirts, denims, and sneakers, and people could not help but notice how much they resembled their famous parents.

Vivienne looked like a younger version of Angelina, with her hair loose and some strands tucked behind her ears, just like the iconic actress had been seen doing many times.

Meanwhile, Knox looked much like the mirror image of his father, with his low haircut that looked similar to the one Brad had when he starred with his ex-wife in the action comedy “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.”

Currently, Knox has been keeping busy with Muay Thai training intensively in L.A. He is often spotted leaving training sessions, showcasing a dedicated, athletic physique and occasionally sporting vibrant new looks.

The Actress Previously Revealed Her Kids Love For Privacy

Angelina and Brad share six children: three biological kids, Shiloh, and the twins, along with their older adopted kids, Maddox, Pax, and Zahara.

In a previous interview, the “Maleficent” actress explained why Knox and Vivienne are rarely seen in public despite their parent’s huge status in the entertainment industry.

She spoke to outlets during a promotional interview for her film “Maria,” sharing that all six of her kids prefer to live “quite private” lives.

The Blast reported that in another interview, Angelina noted that she did not think her children would pursue a career in acting, describing them as “shy, very private people.”

“None of my children want to be in front of the camera [at] this time, Shiloh’s extremely private,” the actress noted, before adding, “They weren’t born with privacy, right? So, I hope that they can have that as they grow older. So we’ll see.”

Vivienne, Like Her Siblings, Dropped Her Dad’s Surname

Vivienne appears to have parted ways with the hyphenated version of her surname. This development came to light after she was listed two years ago in the playbill for “The Outsiders” as Vivienne Jolie and not Vivienne Jolie-Pitt.

While it remains unclear if she has legally made the name change like her sister, Shiloh, PEOPLE can confirm that they are not the only ones in the Jolie-Pitt clan to drop the actor’s name.

Zahara also introduced herself as Zahara Marley Jolie while joining the Mu Pi chapter of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority at Spelman College. On her graduation day this year, she walked the stage to accept her diploma with Pitt excluded from her name.

The name changes appear to be a result of the strained relationship Bradd has with his kids following his divorce from Angelina.

The former couple split in 2016, and after a tumultuous divorce process, the actress walked away with sole custody of the kids while Brad had visitation rights for the three minor children.

The Kids’ Estrangement Goes Beyond Brad Pitt’s Divorce From Angelina Jolie

The Blast reports that while Brad’s never-ending legal drama with the actress took a great toll on his relationship with his six children, the fallout did not originate from the divorce.

The rift between them can be traced to an unfortunate incident that happened in September 2016 on a private jet.

Brad allegedly poured alcohol on his family while he was drunk and told the children their mother was “crazy.” In addition to verbally insulting his then-wife, he allegedly shoved her and got physical with one of the children.

The “F1” actor has denied the claims, tagging him as a domestic abuser, but the memories seem to have dwelt in the hearts of his kids, fuelling their estrangement and ongoing strained relationship. Despite these, insiders say Brad has hope of reconciliation in the future.

“He continues to hope that one day a reconciliation is possible. There’s a hope that in time they will all find each other,” the insider said of Brad and his six children.
