The War Machine star reportedly got into a fight with his neighbor on March 22. Someone recorded Alan Ritchson's interaction with Ronnie Taylor from a window, and it was released. Ritchson, 43, returned to social media and referenced his enemy.

"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake. -Napoleon Bonaparte," the Reacher star posted on Instagram late at night on March 23. Other actors shared their support on the platform.

Drew Ater from Red One shared the fight video on his Instagram Story and wrote, "Don't start no sh!t! There won't be no sh!t Not Rocket Science." He then added a note, "I mention my [friends '] names in every room that has a potential opportunity for them because that's what real friends do."

"Indeed," Page Kennedy from The Meg commented on Ritchson's post.

Ritchson's neighbor, Taylor in Brentwood, TN, reportedly stopped the actor from riding his motorcycle on the street. The actor star was ahead of his two sons on their minibikes. Taylor accused Ritchson of speeding and revving his engine in the neighborhood.

There are different claims of who turned the interaction physical. The video on TMZ already starts with Taylor on the ground on his arms and knees. Ritchson allegedly punches him four times before picking up his motorcycle that was lying on the street.

His two sons watch on their motobikes in the street. Ritchson has three boys with his wife, Catherine. They are named Calem, 13, Edan, 12, and Amory, 10. It's unclear which boys were on the bikes that Sunday.

Law enforcement is reportedly investigating the incident and hasn't made a statement.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have carved out a new deal with Netflix to produce a polo-themed scripted drama, hot on the heels of rumours about a rocky relationship with the streamer.

According to Deadline, the currently untitled project, billed as the “upstairs-downstairs” drama, will be set in the high-flying equestrian town of Wellington, revolving around “the messy dynamics between two rival teams and the families that lead them.” It is considered to widen the scope of the elitist “king of sport” beyond rich owners and players.

The show will take inspiration from Netflix’s 2024 flop docuseries and Prince Harry’s “passion project”, Polo, which followed the glamorous world of polo and showcased the teams competing at the U.S. Open Polo Championship held in Wellington.

Written by Francisca X. Hu (Peacock’s Teacup), the new project will come from the couple’s Archewell Productions and Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage's Fake Empire, under their Netflix deal.

A week ago, Variety sparked rumours of tension between Netflix and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and Netflix’s divestment from Meghan’s lifestyle brand, As Ever, only made the matter worse. With five years of tumultuous showbiz journey for the couple at Netflix, the big guess from people in the know was, “we’re [Netflix] done.”

But Netflix’s executive, Bela Bajaria, quickly hushed the rumours, saying, “Don't believe whatever you read. Maybe we should all do a little fact-checking.”  

Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see how this new series fares among fans who haven’t watched anything as interesting as Netflix 2022’s docuseries Harry & Meghan from the couple, which logged as the streamer's most-watched docuseries debut.

Reacher star Alan Ritchson’s alleged physical altercation with a Nashville resident is gaining some headlines. Now, the man involved in the matter has shared his side of the story.

In an interview with TMZ Live, Ronnie Taylor revealed it began on Saturday morning when he first heard the incessant motorcycle revving throughout his residential neighbourhood. Taking the stand and unaware of who the rider was, Taylor requested the man, “‘Can you slow it down please?’”

Taylor said the altercation escalated the next day while he was cleaning his bike outside, and he heard the revving noises again. “He rode past once, twice. On the second time, I walked outside in front of him and said, ‘You've got to stop,’” he recounted. Ritchson allegedly came roaring down the block and “kicked the crap” out of him.

TMZ reports that sources close to Ritchson claim Taylor “initiated and instigated” the confrontation. “I'm an experienced motorcycle rider. I've been riding for most of my life," Taylor explained on the video.

Police officers in the Nashville suburb of Brentwood, Tennessee, are currently investigating the alleged assault, with no arrest made yet.

There is always something magical about stepping back into the world of Bridgerton, a place where emotions feel bigger, glances say more than words, and love rarely follows a straight path. Season 4 turned out to be different than its predecessors, and received a lot of praise for its storytelling. However, it is time for fans to move forward because the story is moving forward too, and this time, it’s bringing a quieter, more intimate kind of romance into focus. Netflix has confirmed that Season 5 is officially happening, and work on the new installment has already begun. Instead of revisiting familiar dynamics, the show is choosing to slow things down and explore a different emotional space through Francesca Bridgerton’s journey.

Yes, you heard it right. Season 5 of the Netflix series will focus on Francesca, played by Hannah Dodd, and Michaela, played by Masali Baduza. Francesca has always felt a little distant from the noise around her. While her siblings often find themselves caught up in dramatic love stories, she has been more reserved, more inward. That changes now. Her life has already been marked by loss after her husband John passed away, and she’s left trying to figure out what comes next.

As per Netflix, the fifth installment of Bridgertonwill consist of 8 episodes, just like the previous editions. The official logline for Season 5 reads, "The fifth season of Bridgerton spotlights introverted middle daughter Francesca (Hannah Dodd). Two years after losing her beloved husband, John, Fran decides to reenter the marriage mart for practical reasons. But when John’s cousin Michaela (Masali Baduza) returns to London to tend to the Kilmartin estate, Fran’s complicated feelings will have her questioning whether to stick to her pragmatic intentions or pursue her inner passions."

Jess Brownell returns as the showrunner, while the series continues under the creative vision of Shonda Rhimes. Filming is taking place in London

In Season 4, after the death of her husband, Francesca returns to society, considering marriage again. It all feels like something she should do rather than something she truly wants. But things begin to shift when Michaela Stirling enters the picture. She is connected to Francesca’s past in a deeply personal way, but she also brings a new kind of energy into her life. Michaela appears confident and lively, yet there is a sense that she keeps her guard up, especially when things start to feel too real.

As the two spend time together, their bond grows in a way that feels both natural and complicated. Francesca begins to question herself, her choices, her feelings, and the life she thought she was supposed to live. Michaela, too, finds herself unable to run from emotions she would rather avoid.

What starts as familiarity slowly turns into something deeper. This season seems less about grand gestures and more about what happens in the quiet moments. The connection between Francesca and Michaela is not rushed. Instead, it builds slowly,  giving their story a different texture from what fans have seen before.

Over the years, Bridgerton has become more than just a popular show. It has found a place in everyday conversations, fashion trends, and even in how people talk about on-screen love stories. With Season 5, it feels like the show is trying something slightly different: something softer, but just as meaningful.

Francesca and Michaela’s story may not be loud, but it looks like it will stay with viewers in a deeper way. And sometimes, those are the stories that matter the most.

As of now, no release date has been announced for Bridgerton Season 5.

Sarah Cunningham, an actress known for her roles on Trapper John, M.D. and Dallas, died on March 24, 1986, after she collapsed at the Oscars. She was 67.

Cunningham suffered a fatal asthmatic attack while attending the Academy Awards in Los Angeles, according to her New York Times obituary.

The Los Angeles Times reported that Cunningham collapsed at the Oscars and was rushed to nearby Queen of Angels Hospital, where she died an hour later. Her memorial service was held at the Ensemble Studio Theatre in Hollywood.

Born in Greenville, South Carolina, in September 1918, Cunningham moved to New York after graduating from Furman University. She studied acting with Stella Adler and eventually taught other students too. At Adler’s acting classes, Cunningham met John Randolph, whom she married in 1942.

Along with Randolph, Cunningham was a founding member of the Ensemble Studio Theatre in New York City in 1968. The pair often starred in its stage productions together. At the time of her death, Cunningham was serving as the board chairman of the Los Angeles company, which was formed in 1980.

Cunningham also acted in Broadway productions of The Visit, Fair Game and Toys in the Attic.

Outside of the theater world, Cunningham was known for her television credits. She notably appeared as Nurse Andrews on 30 episodes of the CBS medical drama Trapper John, M.D. during seasons 4 through 7, which aired from 1982 to 1986. (The M*A*S*H spinoff starring Pernell Roberts as the titular doctor ran for seven seasons from 1979 to 1986.)

On the CBS primetime soap opera Dallas, Cunningham had a recurring role as Aunt Maggie Monahan, the sister of Digger Barnes (portrayed by David Wayne, Keenan Wynn and David Marshall Grant throughout the show’s run). She appeared in five episodes, guest-starring during season 2 in 1978, season 3 in 1980 and season 8 in 1984. (Dallas, starring Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Victoria Principal and more, aired for 14 seasons from 1978 to 1991.)

Throughout her career in television, Cunningham also appeared on episodes of The Wild World of Mystery, Baretta, The Rookies, Starsky and Hutch, Police Woman, How the West Was Won and Vegas.

Cunningham’s film credits included 1972’s The Cowboys, 1977’s I Never Promised You a Rose Garden, 1982’s Frances and 1985’s Jagged Edge.

Cunningham was survived by her husband and their two children: daughter Martha and son Harrison.

The 1986 Academy Awards were hosted by Alan Alda, Jane Fonda and Robin Williams at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles. Out of Africa won the most awards at the ceremony, with seven trophies including Best Picture. Other notable winners at the 58th Oscars were William Hurt for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Kiss of the Spider Woman, Geraldine Page for Best Actress in a Leading Role for The Trip to Bountiful, Don Ameche for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Cocoon and Anjelica Huston for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Prizzi’s Honor.

Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea is best known for his powerful riffs and high-energy performances but even an icon like him has been carrying a deeply personal secret.

The ‘90s rock star surprised fans when he delivered a shocking confession during his guest appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

The 63-year-old musician stole the show the moment he entered the room, walking upside down, proving that there is no barrier to his legendary energy.

Looking dapper in his casual suit and sneakers, he revealed a recent head injury, which explained the bandage on his head.

“It was a bazaar peeing accident,” he said, adding that it was a radio show for Apple Music.

During the short break, he revealed that he only had three minutes for a personal break before the show went on air again.

However, because of the limited time he had to go to the bathroom, he went on a full sprint to the hallway and accidentally hit the door.

“Smack into the glass door, flat on my back, blood spurting out on my head,” he detailed. “I’m lying there and I’m going, ‘Oh man, I gotta do the Fallon show in a few days.’”

Instead of letting it shame him, he transformed embarrassment into an unexpected, powerful moment of honesty.

“But strangely enough, this is not my first peeing accident,” he admitted, adding, “I peed the bed till I was 11 or 12 years old. Caused me no shortage of embarrassment, but…I just wanna let you know all of you out there in TV land, all you bedwetters, I am one of you. You are not alone. I know what it's like to sleep over at someone’s house and you peed the bed and you wake up in a sea of urine.”

Flea’s hilarious confession drew cheers from fans online, many of whom praised his quick and clever humor.

“This is exactly why we love FLEAAA,” one wrote.

“How can you not love this guy????” a commenter said.

“Lol, I love Flea,” a fan agreed.

Another asked, saying, “How can you not love this guy????”

“Protect Flea at all costs,” a commenter added.

“Support your local freak!” said one follower.

In addition to this, fans also compared him to the late martial artist and cultural icon Chuck Norris.

“Flea is the new Chuck Norris,” an Instagram user said.

The same goes for another commenter who remarked, “Chuck Norris prayed to be reincarnated as Flea.”

Although Flea is still with Red Hot Chili Peppers, he is exploring things outside the band, but instead of focusing on rock music, he is pursuing his first love – jazz music.

The musician is set to release his debut solo studio album, Honora. Scheduled for March 27, the album is a jazz-focused project where the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer plays trumpet and bass.

Flea also teamed up with British musician and Radiohead’s frontman, Thom Yorke, Nick Cave of the band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and a backing band of jazz musicians.

Sunday’s runway tragedy at LaGuardia has done more than just halt traffic in Queens; it has exposed the dangerously thin margins of a U.S. aviation system that was already under stress. As NTSB investigators piece together the technical failures behind the collision between Air Canada Flight AC8646 and a firefighting vehicle, travelers elsewhere are facing a different kind of frustration, a new March 2026 report found: American travelers are stressed by unreliable and unpredictable airport experiences. Leading the list is Newark Liberty International, which has earned a "Stress Score" of 99 out of 100.

For the modern traveler, these aren't just statistics—they’re a reality check on a standard of service that has largely collapsed. At Newark, only 70.3% of flights manage to push back on time, and a 2.4-star Yelp rating confirms that passengers are fed up.

The frustration isn’t limited to Newark: there is turmoil at the nation’s primary hubs:

• San Diego International now has the title of the most crowded airport in the country, packing 19,000 people into every acre. What’s more, construction has severed the walkways between Terminals 1 and 2, leaving those with tight connections in a constant scramble.
• Orlando International has become the capital of the lost suitcase. Between 20,300 monthly searches for "lost and found" and a 25% delay rate, the friction for families and tourists is relentless.
• Logan International in Boston owns the slowest security in the U.S. You’ll wait nearly 20 minutes in line just to reach a gate where 27% of the flights are already behind schedule.
• Miami International is suffering from the same reputation as Newark, sporting a 2.5-star reputation and a baggage system that fails 16,000 people a year.

The sting of a ruined trip is made worse by the fact that, legally, you’re often on your own. A spokesperson from Good Guys Injury Law pointed out that American travelers are frequently shocked to learn how thin their legal safety net is compared to those in Europe. In the U.S., airlines aren't legally required to pay for delays unless the cause is strictly within the carrier's control. In this climate, knowing the fine print on refunds and rebooking isn't just helpful—it’s the only real defense a passenger has.

With the industry focused on recovery and safety protocols this week, the study results suggest that a smart strategy for passengers may be to bypass major international hubs in favor of quieter regional alternatives.

He loves her, she loves... fame? According to Summer House star Lindsay Hubbard, the newest Bravo couple, KJ Dillard and Dara Levitan, may be on the series for very different reasons.

While not taking a direct jab at their relationship, Lindsay, along with some of her Summer House castmates, made the spicy observation on aFirst We Feast short about the motivations behind the couple's appearances on the series, saying KJ is on the show for "love," while Dara was there for "fame."

Cue the gasps. "She said it, not me," Bailey Taylor, who read the question, added. The comments section also "gasped" with most commenters disagreeing with Lindsay's assertion about Dara. "I’m not understanding the Dara hate I’ve seen lately, it’s so weird. Here for fame is definitely West btw like come onnn," one person wrote. Another commented that "Dara is an absolute class act, I’m not understanding. also I followed her way before SH."

Meanwhile, KJ was wrestling with an atomic-ignited wing as the group moved on to the next question. 

Dara sat in the audience when KJ appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, and laughed during the fan poll question asking if the couple moved too fast last summer. Approximately 84 percent of fans didn't think KJ and Dara moved too fast on their romance. The couple is still together, with KJ confirming their relationship has been going strong since last summer.

During the same show, a fan pointed out that Dara said in an interview that KJ was "a man written by a woman" and wondered what advice he might have for some of the "f" boys in the house.

"I learned so much from women. I was raised by all women. My grandma, my mom, my aunt," he said. "They just instilled in me so much morals and how to treat women. And I think a lot of men lack that and that's unfortunate ...like toxic masculinity ain't it." 

Summer House is on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.

Last July, Alan Tudyk sat down with Katie Sackhoff on The Sackoff Show and said, flatly, that Fireflywas coming back. Not maybe. Not hopefully. Back.

'I don't think that Firefly has had its last season,' he told her. 'That's right. I said it.'

Then he described a piece of fan fiction that Nathan Fillion had shown him years earlier. A stranger lands on a desolate moon and knocks on the door of a shack. Mal Reynolds opens it. The visitor just says 'you're needed,' Tudyk told Sackhoff. And Mal responds simply 'okay.'

Eight months later, Nathan Fillion made it literal, but in reverse.

Fillion launched a month-long social media campaign through the Once We Were Spacemen Instagram account, showing up at castmates' doors one by one. Gina Torres opened her door and asked 'Does this mean it's time?' Fillion told her it did. Equally cryptic videos with Morena Baccarin, Sean Maher, Summer Glau, Jewel Staite, and Adam Baldwin followed. Tudyk was last. Fillion looked at him and said, 'I'm not going to do this without you.' Tudyk responded simply 'Oh.' Then Fillion added 'so, are you in?' He was.

On March 15 at AwesomeCon in Washington, D.C., during a live taping of the Once We Were Spacemen podcast, Fillion announced that an animated Firefly series is in development through his production company Collision33, in partnership with 20th Television Animation. Marc Guggenheim and Tara Butters are attached as showrunners, a pilot script is complete, and ShadowMachine is set to animate.

Back on the podcast, Tudyk had sketched out the whole blueprint without realizing it. 'You bring together people who were on the ship before,' he told Sackhoff. 'You also put together some new people and you bring in some of the old writers or all the old writers. You know, TV has a lot of people out of work right now.'

The series still needs a distributor (the assembled package is expected to be taken out to buyers shortly), and Fillion has urged fans to show support on social media to help it find a home. Fan organizations are mobilizing to get it done, something we'll be following over the coming weeks and months.

'The dedication of Firefly fans has kept this 25-year-old show relevant,' Fillion said. 'Clearly, the return of Firefly is something the fans want. More importantly, it's something they deserve.'

Tudyk hinted it was coming. He said so on a podcast. Nobody had knocked on his door yet, but it was only a few months away.

If you’ve ever scrolled through your vacation photos and wondered how you managed to spend seven days on a ship without catching so much as a sniffle, you can probably thank a very diligent cleaning crew.

But according to a recent deep-dive by Fodor’s Travel, even the most polished-looking megaships have a few "hidden" hotspots where germs tend to congregate. While most of us return from the high seas feeling better than ever, the experts Fodor's spoke with suggest that being a little "germ-aware" can be the difference between a dream trip and a week spent quarantined in your stateroom.

The reality of cruise travel is that thousands of people are sharing the same enclosed environment, which makes it a "perfect storm" for high-traffic surfaces. As infectious disease specialist Dr. Daniel Egan explained to Fodor’s, the sheer volume of international travelers and crew means viruses can circulate regardless of the season.

To stay ahead of the curve, the experts suggest looking past the obvious and focusing on the "stealth" germ magnets—like the casino chips that pass through dozens of hands a day or the self-serve drink stations where buttons and nozzles are rarely part of a deep-clean cycle. Even the most essential safety features, like handrails, are touched so frequently that they can become "contaminated again within a few minutes" of being wiped down, according to family medicine doctor Dr. William Woo.

Surprisingly, your "safe haven" cabin isn't immune to the invisible clutter either. Maritime attorney Jason R. Margulies pointed out to Fodor's that high-touch items like the TV remote and the bedside phone are often the most overlooked spots by overextended cleaning staff during those lightning-fast turnaround days.

His "pro tip" for the savvy traveler? Give those light switches and the remote a quick once-over with an antibacterial wipe the second you drop your bags. It’s a small move that takes thirty seconds but can save your entire itinerary.

The most important takeaway for your next sailing isn't to live in fear, but to live with a plan. Dr. Woo emphasizes that while hand sanitizer is a great backup, it isn't a silver bullet for every bug.

The gold standard remains old-fashioned soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds, especially after you’ve pushed an elevator button or navigated a busy buffet line.

To really put your mind at ease before you walk up the gangway, it’s worth doing a five-minute "background check" on your specific vessel. As maritime attorney Jason R. Margulies suggested to Fodor’s, travelers should look up their ship’s official inspection scores, which are conducted randomly twice a year. In the world of high-seas hygiene, a score of 86 or above is considered passing, and these results are entirely public. Checking these numbers is the ultimate "insider move" for 2026, allowing you to see exactly how a crew handles everything from kitchen cleanliness to pool filtration before you even pack your bags.

By pairing that data with a bit of "stateroom strategy"—like using your elbow for the elevator buttons or heading back to your own cabin for a restroom break—you can enjoy the pisco sours and the midnight buffets without bringing any unwanted "souvenirs" home with you. It’s all about working the system so you can focus on the horizon, not the hand sanitizer.

Even though Elvis Presley recorded it first, this 1972 ballad, which ranked among the decade's greatest apology love songs, didn’t reach No. 1 until a rival artist gave it the spotlight it deserved.

The King of Rock and Roll first recorded "Always on My Mind" as a double A-side single paired with "Separate Ways." The songs reflected Presley's personal drama and his split from his wife, Priscilla Presley, after 14 years as a couple. They were married for six and had one daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, before they split.

Gold Radio ranks Presley's version of "Always on My Mind" as its top love song of the 1970s. It beat out Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You," Elton John's "Your Song," Roberta Flack's "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," and the Bee Gees' "How Deep Is Your Love."

However, the song didn't reach the pinnacle of its success until Willie Nelson recorded it a decade later. The song became synonymous with the country music superstar, and it captured the top spot on Billboard's country music chart in May 1982.

According to The Los Angeles Times, the song was penned by Wayne Carson, whose wife was upset about the number of times he traveled for work. “I tried to calm her down,” he said of an argument that spurred the song. “I said, ‘Well, I know I’ve been gone a lot. But I’ve been thinking about you all the time.’ And it just struck me like someone had hit me with a hammer. I told her real fast I had to hang up because I had to put that into a song.”

“All that ‘Always’ was about was one long apology,” Carson continued. “It’s sort of like all guys who screw up and would love nothing better than to pick up the phone and call their wives and say, ‘Listen, honey, I could have done better. But I want you to know that you were always on my mind. I guess there are a lot of people in the world who were looking for a way to say that in a song.’”

Nelson's version of the song bested Presley's. However, the King of Rock and Roll wasn't the first to record the heartbreaking tune. Before the King of Rock and Roll, BJ Thomas, Gwen McCrae, and Brenda Lee all tracked the song, with little success, as reported by Collider. Surprisingly, five years after Nelson went to No. 1 with "Always on My Mind," British synth group Pet Shop Boys updated it in 1987, bringing the tune to an entirely different audience, reaching the No. 1 spot in the UK and No. 4 in the U.S.

Elvis Presley may not have had a No. 1 hit with "Always on My Mind." However, the personal heartbreak he experienced during its recording gave the song a sadder edge than Nelson's version of longing. Presley's raw emotion helped cement the song as one of the most unforgettable of the 1970s.

It’s hard to imagine now, but even one of the biggest rock bands of the 1980s didn’t always dominate the charts. Long before they topped the Billboard 200, the group had already built a massive following with high-energy hits, sold-out tours, and a larger-than-life reputation. Still, it took time—and the right album at the right moment—for them to finally secure their first No. 1, a milestone that arrived 40 years ago today and helped cement their legacy.

Van Halen's first No.1 album on the Billboard 200 was 5150, the band's seventh studio album. 5150 was Van Halen's first album that featured Sammy Hagar, who replaced original lead vocalist David Lee Roth in July 1985.

Hagar first met the guys of Van Halen in September 1978, during a show at Anaheim Stadium.

"I thought he was just one of the nicest, sweetest, humblest rock stars on the planet,” Hagar said of meeting Eddie Van Halen, according to Ultimate Classic Rock. "The first thing was that I was sick: I had the flu, but back then, I wouldn’t even consider cancelling a show, because I was young and pretty strong and healthy and probably with the flu, I was as good as most of the half-drugged out drunk rock stars out there doing a show in the middle of the day, I thought, ‘Well, I can compete.’ [Laughs] So I would do a show anyways, as painful as it was. So I was sick and just dehydrated [on that day in Anaheim]."

According to the American Songwriter, 5150 is the name of Eddie Van Halen’s 5150 Studios, located in Coldwater Canyon, California. Van Halen's son, Wolfgang Van Halen, now owns and operates the studio. Despite the connection, the album and its title track aren't about the studio at all. In fact, "5150" (the track) is about a "flawed romantic relationship," according to the outlet.

The album, which featured nine tracks, was wildly popular and proved to be a major success for both Van Halen and Hagar. In May 2004, the album was certified 6X Platinum.

Sarah Ferguson’s rep dismissed speculation that the former Duchess of York had plans to clone Queen Elizabeth II’s famous corgis, Muick and Sandy.

“To be absolutely clear, she declined the proposal regarding a reality TV show involving the late Queen’s corgis,” a rep for Ferguson told People in a statement published on March 22. “She received the proposal following some initial conversations with Halcyon Media to discuss a potential program on dogs generally, but conversations ended following her declining the opportunity suggested.”

The rep added that Ferguson, 66, “regularly receives varied TV offers and proposals,” which she “always declines.”

Ferguson’s statement came after reports from Daily Mail claimed she was in talks to “sell genetic replicas” of the royal dogs through a company called “The Queen’s Corgis” in the proposed show. 

“As the series unfolds, viewers will be taken on a journey through the fascinating world of genetics and cloning, as well as the inner workings of the royal family,” the reported synopsis read, per the outlet on March 21. “They will witness the highs and lows of Fergie’s business venture, and see how her determination and resilience are put to the test … But ultimately, they will be left with a sense of hope and wonder, as they witness the incredible bond between humans and animals, and the enduring legacy of the Queen’s beloved corgis.”

Ferguson, who is popularly known as Fergie, and her ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, 66, adopted Muick (pronounced “Mick”) and Sandy after Elizabeth died in 2022 at the age of 96. Elizabeth owned over 30 corgis and dorgis, a crossbreed between a Pembroke Welsh Corgi and a Dachshund, throughout her life. Muick and Sandy attended the monarch’s funeral.

Ferguson, Andrew, and their daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, gifted Muick and another dog named Fergus, who died in 2021, to the late monarch in 2021 to cheer her up while Prince Philip was hospitalized amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The family then gave Sandy to Elizabeth later that year, to honor Philip’s 100th birthday, after he had died two months prior at the age of 99. 

In 2023, Ferguson opened up about adopting the U.K.’s most famous pups. 

"They are national icons, so every time they run chasing a squirrel, I panic," she told People. "But they're total joys, and I always think that when they bark at nothing, and there's no squirrels in sight, I believe it's because the Queen is passing by."

She added, "They're with me a lot, and they think I'm very funny."

Ferguson frequently talks about the pride she feels in caring for Elizabeth’s prized pets. She gave an update about Muick and Sandy while paying tribute to the late monarch on the third anniversary of her death. 

"Her Majesty will be forever loved, always missed, and never forgotten,” Ferguson wrote via Instagram. “Not a day goes by when I don’t think of the kindness I was unstintingly shown in good times and bad. Caring for Her Majesty’s beloved corgis is an honor and a daily reminder of the times we shared together."

Lara Flynn Boyle, one of the most recognizable faces of 1990s television, turns 56 on March 24.

Boyle rose to prominence with her breakout role as Donna Hayward on the cult classic series Twin Peaks (1990–1991), where she played the best friend of Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) at the center of the show’s iconic mystery. The series became a cultural phenomenon and introduced Boyle to a wide audience, helping launch her career in both television and film.

She went on to build a steady run of film roles throughout the early and mid-1990s, appearing in Wayne’s World (1992), Red Rock West (1993) and Threesome (1994). Boyle later took on the villainous role of Serleena in the blockbuster sequel Men in Black II (2002), showcasing her range across genres.

On television, Boyle found some of her greatest success with the hit legal drama The Practice, where she starred as Assistant District Attorney Helen Gamble from 1997 to 2003. Her performance earned her a Primetime Emmy Award nomination and helped make her one of the most familiar faces on TV during that era.

In the years since, Boyle has largely stepped away from the spotlight, with only a handful of acting credits over the past decade, including roles in Hansel & Gretel Get Baked (2013), Lucky Dog (2015) and Death in Texas (2020). Her appearances in recent years have been relatively rare, adding to the sense of curiosity surrounding the once-ubiquitous star.

In 2025, actress Michael Michele shared a rare photo of the two together, writing, “From the bathroom at the Emmys back in the day, to any bench, we’ll ‘pop-a-squat’ and make it great. My bestie Lara Flynn Boyle. One of Drama greats!🎥🙌🏽.” The post prompted fans to reflect on Boyle’s work, with one writing, “Loved her on The Practice!!! Good to see you two together!!!”

Though she has kept a lower public profile in recent years, Boyle’s impact on 1990s television and film remains unmistakable. From Twin Peaks to The Practice, her performances helped define a decade of memorable storytelling on screen.

As she celebrates her 56th birthday, Boyle’s legacy as one of the standout stars of the ’90s continues to resonate with audiences who remember her most iconic roles.

If Montana has been on your travel list this week, it may be worth hitting pause. While the state is known for its breathtaking mountain ranges, wide-open landscapes, and iconic national parks, current weather conditions are creating a volatile and potentially dangerous situation, especially for travelers unfamiliar with the region’s rapidly changing climate.

At the heart of the concern is a powerful weather system sweeping across the state, bringing a combination of high winds, fire danger, and sudden temperature swings. According to recent forecasts, multiple High Wind Warnings and Watches are in effect across large portions of Montana, with sustained winds between 30–40 mph and gusts reaching as high as 60–65 mph. These aren’t just breezy conditions, they’re strong enough to impact driving, delay flights, and even knock out power in some areas.

For travelers planning road trips, especially through mountain passes or along interstate corridors, these winds can make driving hazardous. High-profile vehicles like RVs and trucks are particularly vulnerable to sudden gusts, and blowing debris can reduce visibility or create unexpected obstacles.

But wind isn’t the only concern.

Perhaps more alarming is the elevated fire weather risk developing across southwest Montana. Meteorologists have issued a Fire Weather Watch, warning that a dangerous combination of strong winds, low humidity (as low as 18%), and dry vegetation could allow fires to ignite and spread rapidly. 

Even more concerning is how early in the season this is happening. Traditionally, Montana’s wildfire season peaks in the summer months, but conditions this year are accelerating the timeline. Dry, warm weather paired with gusty winds has created an environment where even a small spark, whether from a campfire, vehicle, or power line, could escalate quickly.

Adding to the complexity is a sharp cold front will hit midweek, which will bring rapid and sometimes confusing changes in weather. Rain and mountain snow are expected in parts of western Montana, with snow levels dropping quickly by Wednesday afternoon. 

While this may sound like a cooling relief, it actually adds another layer of unpredictability. Travelers could experience warm, dry conditions one moment, followed by snowy or slick mountain passes just hours later.

This kind of “weather whiplash” is typical of Montana in early spring, but the unpredictability of this week’s system makes it particularly challenging. The state’s geography, split by the Continental Divide, often leads to dramatically different conditions between western and eastern regions at the same time.

If you’re still planning to visit Montana this week, preparation is key:

• Monitor local weather alerts daily
• Be flexible with travel plans and routes
• Avoid open flames or that could spark fires
• Prepare for sudden temperature drops and changing road conditions

However, if your itinerary is flexible, postponing your trip by even a week or two could provide a much safer and more enjoyable experience.

Montana remains one of the most beautiful destinations in the United States, but this week, it’s also one of the most unpredictable. Between powerful winds, heightened fire danger, and rapidly shifting weather conditions, travelers may find that the risks outweigh the rewards.

The soft blue floral pattern is perfect for spring, yet it’s versatile enough to keep around year-round. It pairs well with white sheets, light wood furniture, beige upholstery, and other neutral pieces, so it fits easily into a bedroom with a lighter color palette. It would work especially well in a guest room, but it also has enough pattern to be added to the regular rotation in a primary bedroom.

One shopper said, “This is a beautiful quilt. It is well-made and just the right weight.” Another called it “very nice and great quality, especially at the sale price,” adding that it has “lovely colors.”

Because it’s lightweight, it’s more ideal for spring and warmer months than a heavier comforter, especially if you’re ready to change out winter bedding. The microfiber shell and polyester fill should also make it easier to layer, whether used on its own or over a flat sheet.

Whether you’re a lifelong Pinot Noir devotee or a curious traveler looking for the next great American escape, it’s time to put Oregon’s Willamette Valley at the top of your 2026 bucket list. While Napa has the glitz, Willamette has the soul—a rare combination of world-class viticulture and a laid-back, "kitchen table" accessibility that makes you feel like an insider the moment you arrive.

According to rising star winemaker Piper Underbrink, who helms both the legacy estate Privé Vineyardand the design-forward Sealionne Wines, the region is currently undergoing a transformative moment. "There’s a spirit of winemaking here that’s hard to describe until you feel it: inventive, laid-back, collaborative and genuinely community-driven," Underbrink explains. For women traveling solo or in groups, this isn't just a vacation; it's an invitation into a space where the winemakers actually want to get to know you.

The magic of Willamette lies in its dramatic, rugged landscape—positioned perfectly between the Pacific Ocean and the Cascade Mountains. "You can feel that energy and ruggedness in the air when you’re tasting here," says Underbrink. "This geography creates a climate with the perfect combination of climate, soils and elevation to make truly world-class wines. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the stars, but there’s a growing sense of curiosity and experimentation that’s really exciting. You taste both precision and personality here, and that’s why the region keeps gaining recognition." Underbrink notes that it’s completely normal to taste with the winemaker or owner, end up on an impromptu tour of the cellar, or find yourself trying wines in someone’s kitchen one day and a gorgeous pavilion the next. That accessibility and kindness are a huge part of what makes this place magic, offering an experience that stays with you long after the final pour.

While you won't find massive, impersonal resorts here, the boutique options in downtown McMinnville are among the best in the country. For a higher-end, intimate experience, Tributary Hotel is a very small luxury property that acts as a "sanctuary of slow," where your stay includes a lavish in-room breakfast from the adjoining world-class restaurant, ōkta. "It's within walking distance to some of the best bars, restaurants and tasting rooms in wine country," says Underbrink. For a more mid-range option that is still full of local character, Atticus Hotel offers a beautiful home base with "thoughtful touches from regional makers and frequent lobby tastings from nearby wineries, so you feel immersed in the Valley from the moment you arrive." Free cruiser bikes that make exploring the charming historic district an effortless adventure.

To get the full spectrum of the valley, you have to visit both of Underbrink’s labels, as they offer two distinct but equally meaningful perspectives on Oregon wine. "Privé and Sealionne are special in different ways, and visiting both creates a really meaningful wine trip, especially for women traveling solo or with friends," shares Underbrink. Privé Vineyard represents "the Willamette Valley’s classic story," featuring Burgundian-inspired, vineyard-driven wines in an intimate setting where guests are genuinely cared for. Conversely, Sealionne Wines offers a "more relaxed, adventurous counterpart." Here, approachable wines are often served outdoors from a vintage Airstream, creating an atmosphere that encourages curiosity rather than intimidation.

The culinary scene in Willamette is as collaborative as the winemaking, ranging from humble hidden gems to high-concept dining. Near Privé at the northern end of the valley, Kopitos is a must-visit; it’s a laid-back spot in a converted gas station serving elevated traditional Mexican cuisine. "They also feature a lot of local Hispanic winemakers, which makes it a really fun and community-driven place to eat," says Underbrink. Near Sealionne, the standout is Hayward, a female-chef-owned restaurant that has earned a James Beard nomination. ("In my opinion, it’s the best dining experience in the Willamette Valley.") For those seeking the perfect start to their day, Underbrink recommends Carlton Bakery: "fabulous for brunch," while Loam offers a sophisticated morning menu complete with mimosas and pork belly bacon.

One of the best parts of spending time here is how close you are to stunning natural areas that offer a complete change of pace. Within 45 minutes, you can be on the Oregon Coast, hiking along dramatic cliffs or wandering long stretches of beach between stops at coastal cafés. If you head an hour northeast, you’ll find the Columbia River Gorge, home to some of the most breathtaking vistas and waterfall hikes in the Pacific Northwest. For a quick community-driven stop between tastings, Underbrink recommends Red Hills Market for a little of everything with friendly counter service, making it the perfect place to grab a few artisanal supplies before heading out to catch a sunset over the vines. Underbrink concludes, "It’s the kind of trip where you can enjoy world-class wine and then be surrounded by wild landscape in no time, which is part of what makes this area so special."

In 1979, radio was dominated by one of the most romantic country love songs ever written, a tender ballad that quickly became one of Kenny Rogers’ most beloved signature hits.

"You Decorated My Life" was a sweet ballad that spoke of how a woman changed a man's life for the better. Its heartfelt message and gentle melody resonated with listeners, and it quickly became a go-to love song.

In fact, the song was so beloved that it ranked at No. 10 on Billboard's Top Country Love Songs of All Time in 2025. The tune topped the country charts in the latter part of 1979.

Rogers delivered the song with a warm, unhurried sincerity that let the lyrics speak for themselves. His easy, conversational style gave the ballad an intimate feel and allowed it to reach No. 7 on the Billboard Top 100 in November 1979.

"You Decorated My Life" songwriter, Bob Morrison, told The Tennessean that he and Debbie Hupp penned the beloved country classic, centering its message on a word inspired by the holiday season. Hupp was reportedly inspired by how Christmas decorations brightened up her home and went to her car, recorded the melody and the first chorus.

Morrison added that the song reportedly sat at the bottom of a pile of potential songs for Rogers to record. "Music publisher Bob Beckham brought it to the great Larry Butler, a great producer and musician."

He continued, "Larry said, basically, 'Gee, I don’t know, Bob. Let me put this at the bottom of the stack, and when Kenny comes in, I’ll play the various stuff stacked above it.' Kenny came in and kept saying, 'Nah, Nah. No.' Then (Larry) got to the bottom of the stack and almost reluctantly played it. And Kenny said, 'That’s the one!'"

"Kenny Rogers wasn’t the greatest singer, but he could tell a story. He could morph anywhere he wanted to go! He could sing anything. That was the great thing about him," Morrison concluded.

Rogers told Country Stars Central that he is a "country singer with a lot of other musical influences. That allowed me to do songs through the years like 'She Believes In Me' and 'You Decorated My Life,' where with other singers that wasn't their preference."

"It wasn't necessarily my preference, but it was an ability I had, and I could relate to that music. You either have to do what everyone else is doing or do it better than them, or you have to be different enough to stand on your own," he concluded.

According to U Discover Music, "You Decorated My Life" won a Grammy for Country Song of the Year in 1980. Bob Morrison was named Songwriter of the Year in 1980 by the Nashville Songwriters Association International. 

Kenny Rogers died on March 20, 2020. He was 81.
