Smokey Robinson talked about his long friendship with Diana Ross and said they were more than just friends for a while. He told the Guardian in a recent interview that they had a romantic relationship for about a year, even though he was already married to his first wife, Claudette Rogers. He admitted that it happened while they were working together, but he described it as a beautiful experience.

The famous singers, Smokey Robinson and Diana Ross, have been friends since they were 10 years old. They got even closer when Ross and her family moved to the same street where Robinson and his family lived. They also lived near Aretha Franklin.

Robinson said, “It’s wonderful to know we were kids playing together. And now, these people are some of the most famous people in the world. We had so much fun.”

As a teenager, Robinson had a crush on Franklin, but nothing happened between them. However, his friendship with Diana Ross turned into something more.

Robinson said that neither of them made the first move; their relationship just happened naturally.

He explained, “She was young and focused on her career, and I was trying to help her. I even introduced her to Motown. I wasn’t pursuing her, and she wasn’t pursuing me.”

But eventually, their affair ended. Robinson shared that Diana told him she couldn’t continue because she knew his wife, Claudette, and she knew he still loved her very much.

Reflecting on his relationship with Ross, Robinson said it helped him understand something many find difficult: love. He realized that people can love more than one person at a time, and society often makes it taboo. He explained that love is uncontrollable, and if it were, nobody would take the risk of getting hurt.

While Robinson admitted to his affair with Ross, he laughed off rumors that they were Michael Jackson’s biological parents. He found the idea amusing and denied it outright.

Cameron Diaz quit Hollywood after marrying her husband and becoming a mom for the first time at 47.

Actress’ new photos shock fans who cannot recognize her.

Details about the “Vanilla Sky” star’s private younger spouse and baby girl are known.

Cameron Diaz dominated screens as the sweet girl-next-door archetype for much of the 2000s. However, she retired from acting when she married her rockstar husband and welcomed her daughter.

She is pretty quiet on social media but has shared new photos of herself, and fans are shocked by her appearance. Her toddler and her husband are now her main focus in life, and she keeps them private.

Just before Diaz’s daughter was born, she decided to retire from acting and make her main priority her family. Many were sad to see her go but wished her well on her new journey.

50-year-old Diaz has agreed to return to Hollywood one last time to make a movie. Jamie Foxx, who will be costarring alongside Diaz in a new Netflix film called “Back In Action,” said he had to beg her. He pleaded on his knees and told her it would be one last film.

Foxx and Diaz starred together in 2014’s “Annie,” which was also the last film she starred in before announcing her retirement, so Foxx is thrilled she has agreed to star with him in this movie.

Photos of Diaz filming the movie have started to surface. One showed the actress standing in a black trenchcoat on a speedboat while filming the production. While some fans were excited to see her “Back In Action,” others had only negative things to say about her appearance.

The photos were posted on Instagram and showed one image of Diaz taken from a distance and another where she smiled at something out of the frame, which was a closer view of the actress’ face.

Immediately, fans began talking about her facial features, saying it was clear she had had plastic surgery and that they thought it was too much. One fan said she looked like The Joker, while another lamented:

“She looks nothing like her former self. So sad. Getting caught up in the plastic look.”

Another said they hoped it was simply a bad photo of her and that she had yet to have that much work done. Most fans said she was unrecognizable and needed to stop having so much work done.

While there were a great many negative comments and backlash was rife in the photos, there were also some fans who thought they even though her appearance had changed, she still looked beautiful.

Although many fans have been left eagerly anticipating the actress’ return to Hollywood, it seems that after this movie, she will leave the profession for good as she has allgedly not been happy on set.

A source close to Madden and Diaz has recently revealed what it has been like for Diaz to reenter Hollywood and pursue her acting career once again. The source said the days are long and she misses her daughter dearly. The source clarified:

“Cameron loves being a mom more than anything in the world.”

The situation has not been easy for Madden either. While he is supportive of his wife no matter what she does, her decision to do another movie has been a lot for the father to handle. The couple see one another and Diaz spends time with their daughter, but the source says it is not the same as if Diaz were home.

The source says that the only reason Foxx was able to convince Diaz to do the movie is because the pair are still close since they filmed “Annie.” Otherwise, Diaz prefers to remain a businessperson.

Diaz prefers to stay out of Hollywood because of all the drama that comes with making movies. She is said to be unconfrontational and doesn’t enjoy the conflict that naturally comes with putting out a production.

The actress reportedly feels like she has done enough in her actnig career to prove herself and has nothing left to prove to anyone else. Diaz has starred in over 40 successful films and was once the highest-paid actress in the industry.The source confirmed that this would likely be Diaz’s last movie ever.

When Foxx had an “absolute meltdown” on set earlier this month, which led to three people being fired, Diaz reportedly knew that she did not want to return to the industry ever again.

The source says that Diaz holds nothing against Foxx for the outburst, but she is no longer interested in being part of this industry and all it entails.

It was reported that Foxx fired an executive producer, two directors, and his driver, but Diaz understood that Foxx was in a position of authority and knew that he had to make tough decisions based on his vision for the film.

Instead of focusing on her acting career, Diaz has chosen to focus on her business venture, Avaline. She launched the business with Katherine Powers in 2020.

The business has seen wonderful growth over the past couple of years and Diaz is proud of her hand in creating something that is so close to her heart and allows her to spend time with her daughter.

How Did Diaz Become A Mom at 47 and Quit Hollywood?
Diaz has often said how grateful she is for her career and all the opportunities she has had during her life, but being an actress was becoming too demanding, and she could not manage her routine.

The former actress said that when she realized it was no longer a sustainable way for her to live, she wanted out of Hollywood and built a routine that she could handle all by herself, without needing assistants, managers, or anyone else.

She mentioned that when she was so busy, she didn’t have the time or capacity to make informed decisions that would be best for her future. Now, she can sit back and relax when deciding on something important.

Diaz also mentioned that she had to build this way of living to clear her schedule and become the best mother to her daughter, Raddix. Diaz and her husband, Benji Madden, surprised the world in January 2020 when they announced the birth of their daughter.

They each took to Instagram to share the same post, which comprised only text announcing their daughter’s arrival, her name, and assuring fans that while she was happy and healthy, they would not share any photos of her.

Shortly after the announcement, a source close to Diaz gave an interview in which they revealed that she and Madden had welcomed their daughter via surrogate and said:

“[Diaz] feels like this baby is truly a miracle.”

The source said the couple had faced many obstacles when trying to become parents and were ecstatic that it had finally happened for them, even though Diaz couldn’t carry the child at 47.

Madden and Diaz tried to fall pregnant through IVF, supplements, and even acupuncture, but none of those avenues worked, which led them to explore the possibility of surrogacy. This journey allowed them to welcome their baby girl finally.

Although Diaz no longer acts, she does give occasional interviews, and in each, she gushes that being a mother is one the best thing she’s done. She also mentioned that she never feels overwhelmed by her daughter because she knows there’s a reason behind every behavior.

When her daughter is upset, Diaz tries to understand the root cause so they can work together to help her feel better. The actress says she feels like that is her job as a parent.

The former actress believes it is the fact that she’s an older parent and had to work hard to welcome a child that has helped her be so patient with her toddler, but she acknowledges that she has also been fortunate enough to have the time to learn about her daughter.

Diaz said that while she does try to be patient at all times, it is not always possible, but when she loses her cool, she communicates with her daughter. She said she tells her daughter what she feels and asks Raddix how it made her feel so they can repair the situation.

Who Is Diaz’s Younger Husband?
Diaz and her husband have a six-year age gap, with Diaz being older than the Good Charlotte guitarist. The couple’s relationship first became public in 2014 when an insider said they spent most of their time at Diaz’s house.

The source said Diaz was happy because she finally found a man who treated her like a lady. There was speculation that the two might have met through Nicole Richie, who is Diaz’s friend and Madden’s twin brother’s wife.

A year later, it was confirmed that Madden and Diaz had married. The couple had been engaged since May of 2014, and all their friends and family were elated for them when they finally tied the knot.

Although filled with love and happiness, the celebration was a small and private affair. It was held at their home in Beverley Hills with close friends and family in attendance to celebrate the couple.

Diaz and Madden are madly in love with one another and their young daughter. Diaz is especially grateful to her husband for being such a wonderful father to their daughter. She once gushed:

“After we do bath time with our baby and we put her to bed, Benji puts her to bed, he’s so good. He’s such an amazing father. I’m so lucky he’s my baby’s father. He’s incredible. He puts her down and I go into the kitchen and I pour myself a nice glass of red wine. I start my cooking, I put on my show, whatever it is.”

While she is grateful for Madden’s part in their daughter’s childhood journey, she says that being a mother is just as important to her as it is for her daughter to have a wonderful father.

Diaz said being a parent is the best part of her life and she is lucky to do it with Madden. While she said she couldn’t believe she was a mother, she was thrilled.

The former actress found the best time in her life was when she got to spend quality time with her husband and her child during quarantine in 2020.

Diaz and her business partner went live together during quarantine and talked about what they had been doing during that time. The former actress said she had been cooking.

While Diaz knows that many people hate cooking, she is not opposed to spending time in the kitchen and making something delicious for her family.

Madden and Diaz live in a mansion in Montecito, California, which they have turned into a sanctuary for themselves and their daughter.

Their home sits on 1.75 acres of land and boasts 11,000 square feet. It is also situated on a hilltop, which provides almost uninterrupted views of the ocean

The home is decorated in neutral colors and has a calming feel. The home boasts two living rooms, a beautiful kitchen, stunning dining room, and a study.

There is also a movie theatre in the house and the main bedroom features a sitting area in front of a fireplace just steos away from the bed.

There are many vantage points from which to view the ocean on the property, but there is also an enormous swimming pool, complete with a hot tub.

At the end of the day, the family can gather on the upper terrace to watch the sun go down over the ocean. What a beautiful home and family!

Kidman abandons dyeing her hair and leaves everyone speechless! 🧐😯 The actress makes rare appearance with completely grayed hair! 🤐🤯See the scandalous footage in this article! 👇👇👇

Her bold decision to stop dyeing her hair and embrace natural ageing has highly been praised by the majority. To say that she left everyone speechless with her radical transformation is nothing to say. This resulted in mixed reactions.

Most network users couldn’t stay indifferent and not to comment on the outstanding actress’s radical makeover. Some started to praise her claiming that her decision definitely took courage, while the others strongly disliked her new look.

Many strongly held the opinion that she started to look 10 years older and questioned whether she made the right decision or not. All in all, no one remained indifferent. Her entirely new image escaped no one’s special attention.

 

«What led such a stunning woman to change like this?», «Not the best decision, for sure!», «I can now see how she will appear as a granny!», «How bold of you!».

On their 35th wedding anniversary, beloved Hollywood couple Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan shared heartfelt tributes to each other, showcasing their enduring love and unwavering support through thick and thin.

“35 years of laughter, living, listening, and loving you. Thank you for it all. Forever yours, Mike.”

“Happy anniversary my love. Here’s to many more glorious adventures together. I could not love you more.”

Since 1988, Fox and Pollan have been wed, and they have been a steadfast source of love and support for one another for the past 35 years. Their love story began on the set of “Family Ties” and blossomed further during their collaboration on the movie “Bright Lights, Big City.”

They tied the knot on July 16, 1988, and together, they are parents to their son Sam, identical twin girls Aquinnah and Schuyler, and daughter Esmé. However, after only a few years of marriage, Fox received a terrible diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease in 1991.“We didn’t know what to expect,” Fox mentioned. “One of the things I’ll always love Tracy for is that at that moment, she didn’t blink

They continue to cherish each other, listening and being there for one another when needed, while also giving space when necessary.

30 years ago Kidman and Cruise adopted two kids but the actress forgot about them shortly after their divorce.💔😦For the first time in two years photographers captured their grown-up children. 🧐🤔Here they are! 😮

This couple was considered one of the strongest and most beautiful ones in Hollywood. Yet, unfortunately, they didn’t have biological children. It was in 1992 that the actor adopted a girl.

Their adopted son was only 6 when the parents divorced. After their breakup, the trial decided that they both should take responsibilities of their children. But Kidman was always busy acting and traveling and couldn’t take time for them. Here is Isabella now!

Kidman couldn’t keep her children away from the influence of her husband who at that time took great interest in scientology. She couldn’t do anything about that and had no choice but to give up.

It is worth mentioning that the man’s second marriage ended in divorce because of the same reason. Then, Nicole got married to a guitar player and gifted him with biological heirs.

The outstanding actress stopped communicating with her adopted children who have already grown up and have recently been captured for the first time in two years.

If you grew up in a household that was anything like mine, your family will have its own compiled, established list of Christmas classics.

My parents were more inclined towards the old-fashioned Christmas hits – the likes of Mariah Carey and Wham! were strictly off-limits – so I have a special place in my heart for those ballads that have survived the decades and wake feelings of nostalgia whenever they’re played.

That’s probably why I got all fuzzy inside the first time I heard Carrie Underwood’s take on The Little Drummer Boy, which she sang as a heartwarming duet with her little boy…

The Little Drummer Boy is truly a timeless hit, I think we can all be in agreement on that.

Reportedly, the lyrics for the tune have their roots in a traditional Czech carol, with the song as we know it today believed to have been written by Katherine K. Davis in 1941.

As with any well-received Christmas hit, it’s benefitted from numerous covers over the years: the likes of Bing Crosby, Johnny Cash and even Justin Bieber have produced their own versions.

The favorite version of this much-loved musical piece is something that differs from person to person based on taste, but the chances are you’ll find aspects to appreciate in all of them. After all, it’s a bona fide classic for a reason.

Yet I can’t deny that I was overcome with an especially warm feeling upon first hearing Carrie Underwood’s cover from 2020, recorded alongside her then-5-year-old son Isaiah.

For those who don’t know – we hope there aren’t many of you – Carrie Underwood is a country music icon who has captivated and charmed audiences time and again over the years.

When she announced back in 2020 that she was releasing an album around everyone’s favorite festive season, Christmas, it’s no understatement to say that the excitement among her fans was palpable.

The album in question featured a bewitching blend of Christmas classics and original compositions created by Carrie herself. The song that stands out, at least for me, though, is the 11th track… yep, you guess it: The Little Drummer Boy.

In a truly special duet, Carrie featured alongside her aforementioned son Isaiah, who took on the challenge of providing the iconic vocals… and knocked it out the park.

Don’t believe us? Check out the song in the video below:

Wow! If that doesn’t get you in the Christmas spirit, we don’t know what will.

Foster and Hedison’s relationship, which began in October 2013, has been notoriously private as they both focus on their careers. They made their first public appearance together at a gala in Beverly Hills in 2013, and they have since been a symbol of solidarity and mutual respect.

Foster’s relationship with Hedison, an accomplished actress in her own right, came after Foster’s heartfelt revelation of her sexuality in a moving speech at the Golden Globe Awards in January 2013, a moment that remains a significant point in her personal narrative.

The couple’s secret wedding, confirmed by Foster’s representative, was a quiet celebration of their love. They exchanged vows in a private ceremony. Before their union, both Foster and Hedison had significant relationships, with Foster sharing two sons, Charlie and Kit, with her former partner Cydney Bernard. Hedison was previously in a relationship with Ellen DeGeneres.

Actors Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson have some of Hollywood’s long-lasting marriages and have been referred to as “king and queen of the ball.” Hanks once told millions of people on national TV that the woman in his life had taught and showed him what love meant on a daily.

In February 1996, acclaimed actor Tom Hanks earned his second Best Actor Oscar Award at the Academy Awards. He gave a heart-warming acceptance speech which included his beautiful wife, actress Rita Wilson.

With 81 million viewers tuned in to the program, Hanks revealed how Wilson’s presence had impacted his life, sharing that he knows what love is because of her.

“I’m standing here because the woman I share my life with has taught me and demonstrates to me every day just what love is,” said the filmmaker.

“Apollo 13” producer Brian Grazer revealed how head over heels the couple was. “They are madly in love. They are king and queen of the ball,” he stated.

Hanks and Wilson’s romance started with a crush he had on her in 1972. The “Cast Away” star first saw the singer on “The Brady Bunch.”

Wilson made her acting debut on the American sitcom as cheerleader Pat Conway and apparently, 16-year-old Hanks fell in love with her pom-pom skills. He told reporters at the 2016 New York City premiere of “My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2” what he thought of his future wife:

“I was actually at a friend of mine’s house when it aired, and I remember thinking, ‘that girl’s cute.’”

However, Hanks did not act on his feelings until the mid-1980s. The universe brought the pair together when they met on the set of the ABC TV series, “Bosom Buddies,” in 1981 that he starred in for two seasons.

Wilson appeared as a guest on an episode about a video dating service, and Hanks instantly felt a connection between them. Hanks asked her whether she felt it too:

“Rita and I just looked at each other and –kaboing, that was that. I asked Rita if it was the real thing for her, and it just couldn’t be denied.”

Once again, their lives crossed paths when they were cast in their first film together in 1985 in “Volunteers.” After filming ended, Hanks raved about Wilson, saying when they first locked eyes, they internally knew they were in the right place, emphasizing that he felt it:

“I think the result is that we got married for all the right reasons.”

Even then, Wilson and Hanks remained friends. At the time, he was still legally married to Samantha Lewes, with whom he welcomed two children, but they divorced in 1987. Sadly, Lewes died in 2002 from bone cancer.

Nonetheless, Hanks and Wilson went public with their relationship in December 1986 during his separation from Lewes. The “Greyhound” star told UK Express that he was looking for something he had never found as a child. Hanks explained that being in a broken marriage meant he would be sentencing his kids to what he experienced as a child. He was only 23 and was insecure about marriage.

However, he walked down the aisle for the second time when he wed Wilson in April 1988. Since then, Hanks revealed the success of their union was a matter of timing, maturity, and willingness to explore their connection.

In an interview with Oprah Winfrey in September 2001, the media mogul asked him whether he would have been ready for matrimony if he married Wilson first.

Deemed a cultural icon, Hanks said that he knew he had to change when he married his lovely spouse. They had to discover each other, and he noted their relationship was not perfect like in the movies:

“In real life, our connection is as concrete as me sitting here. Not that marriage doesn’t come close to being hell in a handbasket sometimes. But we both know that no matter what, we’ll be with each other and we’ll get through it.”

Hanks disputed the notion that marriage takes hard work. “No, it’s not,” he said while explaining that from time to time, one needs to get over some things and that life has its challenges.

The Hollywood leading man added that it was pleasing to go home with someone he liked to spend time with and get on with everything else.

Hanks has four children, two from his first marriage and another two from his union with Wilson. The couple welcomed their first child together, Chet, in August 1990.

Chet is a rapper and an actor who has struggled with substance addiction. But after going into rehab, he became sober. Since getting his life together, Chet bagged a recurring role in “Empire.”

Hank and Wilson’s youngest son is Truman, who arrived in December 1995. Though he has kept a relatively low profile, his IMBD credits suggest he has his eyes set on showbusiness. Truman was a production assistant on the 2018 film “The Cloverfield Paradox” and the 2019 remake of “Charlie’s Angels.”

Hanks has two older children, son Colin and daughter Elizabeth, with his late ex-wife Lewes. His eldest son Colin is the spitting image of him and the most popular of all the siblings.

Colin followed in his father’s footsteps when he made his acting debut in “Get Over It” and “Orange County” before starring in “Dexter” and “Fargo.”

Meanwhile, his sister Elizabeth is an LA-based writer who worked as a Vanity Fair staffer and a HuffPost associate news editor. She has also contributed to Time and The New York Times. The brunette beauty has an English degree.

In February 2022, her younger brother Chet dropped a bombshell when he criticized their father’s parenting skills. The musician claimed he did not have a “strong male role model” as he struggled with having famous parents during his teenage years.

Though he assured fans that he had nothing but love for his parents and would not trade them for anything, Chet confessed that coming from a well-known family is a “double-edged sword.”

He said many people derided him for being a movie star’s child. While trying to maneuver through the situation, he realized that he needed a firm role model who could have told him to ignore the naysayers because they were jealous of him.

Moreover, he revealed that Hanks and Wilson did not give him an allowance growing up, adding people assumed that he lived a privileged life which was the opposite.

In September 2015, his brother Colin appeared on “NotSam” and revealed that he gave him advice as the older sibling. Colin stated his younger brother should think twice about his actions.

The movie star acknowledged that Chet was a grown man who would do whatever he wanted and that as his big brother, he loves him, supports him, and wants him to be happy.

In December 2016, Chet took to Instagram to reveal that he had fathered a daughter named Machaiah after numerous media speculations. He shares his child with Tiffany Miles.

The California native said his child was the best thing that has ever happened to him and the main reason why he turned on a new leaf:

“I do have a daughter. She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. She’s the reason why I turned my life around and got sober. I’ve been sober for over a year and a half from everything.”

In June 2018, Chet told Entertainment Tonight that his parents had supported his sobriety journey: “Every step of the way. They’ve always been there for me, and I’m lucky,” he said.

He also shared his mom and dad enjoyed being his daughter’s grandparents. The father of one loves seeing them grandparenting because he was close with his grandparents, and now his child gets to have the same experience. Chet revealed his parents always offer to babysit the little one all the time.

Wilson and Hanks became grandparents for the first time when Colin and his wife Samantha Bryant welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Olivia, in 2011. Even as a grandfather, Hanks revealed he still played with his kids’ toys:

“I play with toys all the time. I play with goofy things my kids still have like cars and planes, and I hold them and imagine the same stories I did when I was a kid.”

Colin and Bryant had a second child Charlotte in 2013. In March 2019, the “Untraceable” star revealed his kids had no idea that their grandfather was famous. “They don’t care about him at all,” he joked.

Colin explained his daughters had no interest in their father’s fame and that anytime they spent time with his dad, it was like any other playdate with a grandparent. In an interview with ET, Wilson and Hanks talked about their experience as grandparents.

She revealed they are cool grandparents, and Hanks echoed the same sentiments stating they were the coolest grandma and grandpa. In addition, being with his grandkids meant no TV, no book, or radio because they entertained him.

Wilson added, “Sometimes they look at us like, ‘What?’ Could you imagine being like ‘Grandpa, Tom Hanks, stop being so silly!’” she said.

The couple became grandparents for the third time when Chet welcomed Machaiah. Her existence resulted from Chet’s “drug-fueled one-night stand” with Miles, who won full custody of their child.

Nonetheless, a source revealed Hanks and Wilson fell in love with their biracial granddaughter. “They adore that baby and even spent Halloween with her. She will always be loved and taken care of by the Hanks family.”

“Roseanne” star Roseanne Barr, 70, returned to Hollywood nearly five years after she was fired and “lost everything.”

She looks fantastic with long hair and makeup in a photo after flirting with Rihanna’s boyfriend, A$AP Rocky.

Barr revealed how TV daughter Sara Gilbert “destroyed” her life.

Roseanne Barr, the face of the hit show “Roseanne,” made a comeback. After a long time away from the spotlight, the actress has made her way back to Hollywood with a new comedy show titled, “Roseanne Barr: Cancel This!”

The actress also had some more excellent news after a new documentary on her long and intricate career was released. The return to show business comes after she made an insensitive comment about Valerie Jarrett, a presidential adviser back in 2018.

The comedy actress opened up after being canceled in 2018, saying she “lost everything.” The ordeal came just as her highly successful TV show was starting its reboot. After the comment, however, television executives decided the best course of action would be to cancel the reboot just as it started airing.

Barr also said it felt like a personal attack on her after her character was killed off.

But Barr refused to lie down. She opened up about the years after 2018, saying it was discouraging to be silenced wherever she went. She asked the studio executives for a chance to apologize and explain her actions, but they refused. She mentioned, “And they denied me the right to apologize.”

Luckily, Barr has gotten back up again and is being open about her experiences between 2018 and now. She has taken a step back from Twitter, investing in her Instagram presence instead. And fans have shown their support, saying, “You look fabulous Roseanne.”

Many users took to Barr’s comment section to show their support after the 70-year-old revealed her “makeup & long hair” look. One said, “You look absolutely AMAZING!!!!” In line with her new-found confidence, Barr sent A$AP Rocky a message, saying, “Call me when you get tired of Rihanna.”

Sara Gilbert, who played Barr’s on-screen daughter in “Roseanne,” also commented on the explosive Tweet.

Barr posed with her new hairdo and nails, smiling broadly in an Instagram post. She looked extremely happy to be back after the controversy, and Instagram users complimented her on the interview where the photo was taken.

How Did Roseanne Barr Feel after She Was Canceled?

Losing her job and being vilified by many people who used to be her fans and co-workers took its toll on Barr. She mentioned that she felt utterly alone. She noted it seemed to her as if she was being attacked from all sides by people who were jealous of her and who wanted to see her fall.

Gilbert was a considerable driving force behind the show’s reboot, and she corresponded with Barr to ensure she wanted to be a part of it.

Barr also said it felt like a personal attack on her after her character was killed off. To her, it was a message saying they didn’t want her around anymore and a direct dismissal of the work she did over the years. She commented:

“I’m the only person who’s lost everything, whose life’s work was stolen, stolen by people who I thought loved me.”

Although she has survived being canceled, Barr mentioned it was a terrible time. She described it as a “witch-burning” and as “terrifying” times in her life, noting, “I would die many times.” Although she’s glad to be back, she surely won’t forget the ordeal anytime soon.

What Did Sara Gilbert Do before Barr’s Cancellation?

After Barr’s controversial comments, numerous prominent Hollywood figures took to social media to show their disdain for her words. Everyone from Shonda Rhimes to congressman John Lewis criticized her, accusing her of being insensitive and urging her to apologize for what she said. But one accusatory comment left a deeper mark than the rest.

Sara Gilbert, who played Barr’s on-screen daughter in “Roseanne,” also commented on the explosive Tweet. Gilbert was a considerable driving force behind the show’s reboot, and she corresponded with Barr to ensure she wanted to be a part of it.

After Barr’s Tweet, however, Gilbert took to Instagram to express that the showrunners and the rest of the staff didn’t share the views expressed in the Tweet. Gilbert called the Tweet “abhorrent,” and mentioned that the TV show does not reflect what was implied in the Tweet. Barr responded to Gilbert’s statement:

“She destroyed the show and my life with that tweet. She will never get enough until she consumes my liver with a fine Chianti.”

Although Barr credited Gilbert’s statement for a large part of her downfall, Gilbert replied that her intentions were never to harm the actress. Instead, she mentioned that the show’s ending was heartbreaking for her, and she will always think of Barr as family.

Michael Strahan has been through a lot, including two failed marriages and a very messy divorce. But many years later, the former football player is in a happy relationship and, most importantly, spends quality time with his kids. Here are the details of his ordeal.

Michael Strahan has successfully climbed the ladder of fame and fortune as a television personality and journalist. However, before his entertainment career began, he thrived as a professional football player for the New York Giants of the NFL.

Strahan has witnessed many good times in his lifetime, but like every other person, he has also dealt with difficult situations, especially in his love life.

The “Good Morning America” co-anchor has been quite unfortunate in his romantic escapades. He has tied the knot twice, but sadly, both marriages have ended as failures.

Strahan’s first marriage was to Wanda Hutchins from 1992 to 1996, while his second marriage to Jean Muggli lasted for seven years, from 1999 to 2006. Over the years, the former NFL star has spoken candidly about how challenging his divorces were. During a 2016 chat with People, Strahan confessed:

“Personally, getting divorced is probably one of toughest things I’ve ever gone through, but it was also a learning experience, and I learned a lot about myself.”

The journalist further noted that his divorces made him realize he was a strong man. According to Strahan, he drew strength to deal with the difficulties of his fatherhood. In his words:

“My kids give me strength. I love being with kids. To me, it’s all about family, now more than anything.”

The father of four knew he had to stay strong for his tender kids, and even though it was a frightening ordeal, he always spoke positive words to himself.

Looking back at everything that had happened, including his children, Strahan revealed that his positivity paid off, adding that it was one of the most fulfilling times of his life.

Details of Michael Strahan’s Messy Divorce
Although Strahan has been through two failed marriages, his second divorce will always be one he will remember due to how messy it was.

Strahan says that away from the big screen, he is a quiet type, and the huge attention makes him embarrassed and uneasy.

The 2006 battle with Jean Muggli saw the former professional football player on the losing end. Following the finalization of the divorce proceedings, the judge ordered Strahan to pay his ex-wife a whopping $15.3 million. In addition to the huge sum, Muggli received $18,000 monthly in child support from the entertainment icon.

Furthermore, she was awarded primary custody of their two daughters, while Strahan was granted only visitation rights. Indeed, it was a tough time, especially for the TV personality, but things would only worsen.

In September 2019, years after the couple finalized their divorce, Muggli filed a lawsuit in New York, demanding an increase in the monthly child support. While the case was still ongoing in court, Strahan made new allegations about his ex-wife.

According to reports, the former couple had initially agreed to use a parenting coordinator. However, Strahan claimed that Muggli was intentionally doing things to increase the PC’s involvement, thereby causing an increment in the PC’s fees.

For example, the anchor alleged that Muggli went back on their plan to enroll their teenage twin daughters in a school in North Carolina, which caused the PC to intervene.

Also, Strahan claimed that his ex-wife was “uncooperative in scheduling his visitation” with their kids, causing the PC to make the visitation schedule herself. According to the PC, their co-parenting had become “time-consuming, full of conflict and unrealistic.”

Strahan desired that the court intervene and order a 50-50 split of the PC’s fees, which could solve the alleged problems.

But in 2020, the anchor decided it was best for him to be awarded primary custody of his girls. So, he contested the previous custody arrangements because Muggli was physically and emotionally abusing their daughters. However, in October 2020, the case was dismissed with prejudice, as the ex-couple reached a joint child custody agreement.

Michael Strahan’s Relationship with His Daughters
Almost two years after the custody agreement, Strahan is relishing his time with his girls, as he did not let the battle affect his relationship with them. According to him:

“It wasn’t like, ‘Okay, we split, now I’m gonna write a check and send it to your mom every month, and Daddy will see you down the road.”

The proud dad is grateful to have access to his daughters, and despite his busy schedule, Strahan always makes time for them.

Whenever they were in school, he would get on a plane and see them in North Carolina; whenever they were on a break, they would fly down to New York to be with him

Strahan says his children have a different upbringing than he did; nevertheless, the love is no different. Meanwhile, the journalist’s twins, Isabella and Sophia, make their dad prouder daily.

In April 2022, Isabella launched her modeling career, walking the runway for Sherri Hill’s Bridal and Evening Fashion Show. It was a memorable moment for the young model and her doting dad.

Michael Strahan’s Choice to Keep His Personal Life Private
After being in the news several times due to his romantic involvements, Strahan has decided to keep his love life away from the public eye. According to the starlet, he has “done the public relationship, and it doesn’t work.”

Strahan says that away from the big screen, he is a quiet type, and the huge attention makes him embarrassed and uneasy. But despite how private the anchor wants his love life to be, there is no hiding that he is dating Model Kayla Quick.

The lovebirds have reportedly been together since 2015 and keep waxing stronger by the day. Reports have also revealed that Quick shares a close bond with her boyfriend’s children.

Fans could not be more pleased to see Strahan in a happy place after everything he has been through. Hopefully, he and Quick’s love will not end anytime soon.
