Jordyn Woods opened up about the challenges of growing up in the public eye. The 28-year-old social media personality, who is engaged to Karl-Anthony Towns, said she experienced an adult life at a young age.
The NBA Finals are over, but Woods' lucky bag remains a hot topic. Talking about her viral game-day accessory, she said it became a lucky charm for her and Knicks fans everywhere. The New York Knicks won their first NBA championship since 1973 this year. Fans credited the team's success to many factors, including Woods' lucky bag.
Woods told Bustle in a July 29 interview that losing her father in 2017 forced her to grow up quickly. Woods said she has always felt like the same person she was as a child and described herself as an "old soul." She added that the journey was not easy or quick and required a lot of healing.
She said she grew up without a role model she could truly relate to. She explained that while her social media may show one side of her life, the person she is beyond the screen is very different. She then recollected, "The bag was pretty epic, because that was the most organic marketing I could have ever had. I couldn't even pay for marketing like that; it just happened. I don't think I've really processed how crazy that whole thing is." Woods created the bag under her own label, Woods by Jordyn.
Woods rose to fame through her childhood friendship with Kylie Jenner and appearances on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. While the fame may look rosy, it always has a flip side. In 2019, she found herself at the center of a highly publicized cheating scandal involving Tristan Thompson, who was dating Khloé Kardashian at the time.

Lele Pons is sharing one of the toughest parts of her life after becoming a mother. Recently, the influencer shared about her pregnancy on a podcast. She shared that she faced physical and mental struggles when she became pregnant with her first child. Pons also revealed how motherhood had changed her way of thinking since having her daughter Eloísa.
During an appearance on The Squeeze podcast with Tay Lautner, Pons said that she "didn't like being pregnant" because she had to stop taking her mental health medication. She said doctors asked her to stop the medication as soon as she learned she was pregnant. Pons found out she was expecting while she was in Las Vegas after vomiting unexpectedly and taking a pregnancy test. She stated she was four weeks pregnant and had stopped birth control just two months earlier.
Pons said she had been on medication for OCD since she was 10. She called the experience horrible, and her symptoms became difficult to control. "I was a different person, I was an unbalanced person. I was not stable," she said. She added, "I've never been out of control like that," and said even her friends and family noticed the change.
The influencer also shared that she stopped seeing her therapist because she felt the sessions no longer helped her. She stated that she gained 50 pounds during her pregnancy and urged people not to compare their experiences. She added, "I don't like when people say like, the normal is this. No. No. No. The normal is whatever happens. You know? We're all different. We all have different bodies."
Despite all those struggles, every challenge became worth it after her daughter arrived, Pon said. "You only care about her health, Tay," she said. "You're not the main character anymore in your story," she added before calling motherhood "such an amazing love" and "a shocking love." On July 26, Pons and her husband, Guaynaa, welcomed their daughter, Eloísa, to the world and posted the news together on Instagram a day later.

Elizabeth Hurley had never met Miley Cyrus before beginning her relationship with Billy Ray Cyrus, but Miley's work had already been a familiar part of life with her son, Damian Hurley.
During a July 27 appearance on SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live, Andy Cohen asked whether Hurley had met Billy Ray's daughter. "I have met Miley. She's adorable," Hurley replied.
Hurley added that she has been fortunate to meet some of Billy Ray's other children and described them as "fabulous." Her introduction to Miley, however, followed years of seeing her on television and hearing her music at home.
Damian grew up watching Hannah Montana and later became a fan of Miley's pop career. Hurley said that history had already convinced her that she would like Miley before the two ever met.

Derek Hough's wife, Hayley Erbert, is feeling love from fans after announcing a devastating family loss.
In a Tuesday, July 28, Instagram post, the former Dancing With the Stars troupe member revealed that her stepfather, Jim, had passed away several days prior. "It has been a week since Jim left us earth side, a week since his beautiful soul was set free," Erbert wrote. "He was the best bonus dad there was, even though 'bonus' will never be a big enough word. He showed me that being a dad isn't about biology. It's about showing up. It's about consistency, patience, protection, and love."
Erbert said she was "so lucky" to have her stepfather in her life, describing him as "one of those rare people who made the world feel gentler just by being in it." She added, "Selfless in every sense, his kindness showed in everything he did, his calm made everyone feel safe, and his quiet humor was there for anyone paying close enough attention. To know him was to love him."
Referring to her and Hough's 7-month-old daughter, Erbert continued, "Everley didn't have nearly as much time with him as any of us wish she could've, but she now has the best guardian angel." She concluded the tribute by writing, "I will love you forever, Jim. And I will miss you even more."

Bayer Leverkusen continued their perfect pre-season start with a 4-0 win over Belgian side Genk on Wednesday. Summer signing Afonso Moreira maintained his record of scoring in every game before providing the **** ist for the fourth goal.
Unlike their first two friendlies, Leverkusen played the game at their home ground for the youth teams, Ulrich-Haberland-Stadion. Jeanuel Belocian opened the scoring after Edmond Tapsoba's incisive through pass before fellow French defender Loïc Badé saw his perfect goal cancelled for an offside.
Nathan Tella doubled Leverkusen's advantage before the break, with the **** ist provided by Jonas Hofmann after Carles Martínez's boys won back possession in the final third. Before the Spaniard coach changed the entire lineup at the hour mark, Die Werkself added two quickfire second-half goals.
Former Lyon attacker Moreira scored his fourth pre-season goal with a clinical finish before a well-worked **** ist for Christian Kofane's goal a couple of minutes later. While Kerim Alajbegovic and Martin Terrier are standing at the exit door from the club, Moreira is showing more than enough quality to be trusted as the starting left winger ahead of the season start.
Meanwhile, Patrik Schick played his first pre-season minutes as he played alongside Victor Boniface in the scoreless last half an hour. Leverkusen will face 3. Liga side Rot-Weiss Essen in their next friendly game at Ulrich-Haberland-Stadion on August 1st.

Princess Diana got pregnant less than four months after her 1981 wedding to then-Prince Charles — and quickly became torn between her royal duty and debilitating morning sickness.
"With [Prince] William it was appalling, almost every time I stood up I was sick," she told Andrew Morton for his book, Diana: Her True Story — In Her Own Words, adding that she was "made to feel it was a nuisance" when she got sick during formal events, but felt obligated to attend anyway.
"There was only ever one cancellation when I was carrying William, the visit to the Duchy of Cornwall's estate," she continued, according to the book, which was released in 2017. "And I was made to feel so guilty by my husband for that."
The pressure came to a head in early 1982 while they were staying at Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, England. "Charles said I was crying wolf and I said I felt so desperate and I was crying my eyes out and he said: 'I'm not going to listen. You're always doing this to me. I'm going riding now,'" Diana recounted. "So I threw myself down the stairs. The Queen comes out, absolutely horrified, shaking – she was so frightened."
"I knew I wasn't going to lose the baby; quite bruised around the stomach," she added. And according to The Telegraph, the royal gynecologist, Sir George Pinker, was summoned to her side and found that the baby was uninjured.

As he negotiates a new long-term deal with Detroit, Lions star running back Jahmyr Gibbs did not practice on Wednesday during Detroit's first training camp practice.
Gibbs is a hold-in, meaning he is at Lions training camp but not currently participating.
"Of course, you guys know how we feel about Gibbs and all of our guys, (Sam) LaPorta, (Brian) Branch. And so, we'll take this as it comes. This will kind of continue. It'll come as it comes. I think that's the best way to say it. And so, this is both sides working through something and we'll take it as it comes, but that's where it is," Campbell said of Gibbs to open camp.
The Lions executed the fifth-year player option on Gibbs back in April, keeping the star rusher under contract through the 2027 NFL season. Gibbs will earn $14.293 million in 2027 with his player option.
Gibbs, a 5-foot-9, 202-pound back, rushed for 1,223 yards and 13 scores a season ago. The Alabama alum's rushing yards ranked seventh in the NFL last season. Gibbs also added 616 receiving yards and five touchdown grabs, helping him eclipse 1,800+ yards from scrimmage for a second straight season.

Lele Pons revealed she stopped her mental health medication during pregnancy, detailing the experience to Tay Lautner on The Squeeze podcast
The influencer-turned-musician opened up about her experience with OCD and how she had to navigate her symptoms without her medication during pregnancy
She and husband Guaynaa welcomed their daughter Eloísa in July after announcing their pregnancy in March
Lele Pons is speaking candidly about her pregnancy and motherhood journey.
The influencer, 30, stopped by The Squeeze podcast, where she chatted with Tay Lautner, 29, the wife of actor Taylor Lautner, 34, about how she navigated her pregnancy before giving birth to her daughter Eloísa last July.
On the episode, Pons candidly told Tay that she "didn't like being pregnant" and that a large reason for that was because she had been forced to stop her mental health medication. Pons told Tay that she had first found out she was pregnant just two months after stopping her birth control, while she was in Las Vegas. After vomiting unexpectedly, Pons took a pregnancy test and found out she was about four weeks pregnant.
"It was a very hard pregnancy, because I had to immediately get rid of my mental health pills, my medication," she told Tay. "And I've never been without them." Pons added that she had been on the medication, which she had been taking for her OCD symptoms, since she was just 10 years old.

Giuliana Rancic is not holding back as she says all the details on her former relationship with ex Jerry O'Connell after he recently admitted to being a "pretty terrible boyfriend."
"For a year and a half — except for the one breakup — we were together 24/7 every day, every night," Giuliana, 51, said during the Wednesday, July 29, episode of her podcast, Bill and Giuliana. "You could listen to his interview and think maybe this was an easy relationship, he was dating a bunch of girls, but no. It was a real relationship."
The former entertainment reporter, who dated the actor from 2003 to 2004, recalled photos surfacing of the Jerry Maguire star with Spice Girls' Geri Halliwell while they filmed the 2004 comedy Fat Slags.
"It was, like the most shocking moment of my life," she explained. "I walked into a voiceover booth and fell to the ground, crying hysterically. It was awful. So upsetting and so devastating."
"I was left to pick up the pieces of what was literally a perfect relationship for a year," Giuliana added.

Sen. Rand Paul's (R-KY) attacks against Dr. Anthony Fauci are a "heartbreaking" callback to McCarthyism, TMZ's Harvey Levin said Wednesday after Paul chaired a highly contentious Senate hearing with Fauci.
Fauci's hearing was marked by dozens of instances of the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases pleading the Fifth Amendment, something Levin immediately referenced.
"Anthony Fauci before a congressional hearing taking the Fifth Amendment is just one of the most heartbreaking things I have seen in government in my lifetime, and this is something we need to reckon with," he said. Levin also said he has "problems with how the CDC handled COVID," but that doesn't justify what's happening.
Fauci's years as a "dedicated public servant" go back decades, he added.

Chipmaker Qualcomm (QCOM) will report its third quarter earnings on Wednesday, giving investors a closer look at the impact the global memory shortage is having on smartphone sales and the status of the company's upcoming data center segment.
Qualcomm is working to diversify its business to reduce its dependence on its handset business, which has slowed over the years, as customers hold on to their phones for longer before upgrading.
And with smartphone makers increasing prices to offset the rising cost of memory and storage chips caused by the global AI build-out, the handset market is looking rough.
"The smartphone industry is not great," Bernstein ***** yst Stacy Rasgon told Yahoo Finance's Julie Hyman on Wednesday.
"Memory prices are going up, and AI is sort of sucking up a lot of the supply. And so it's just not leaving a lot for the smartphone players. And we're seeing unit growth has gone negative," he added.

Teenage forward Luca Williams-Barnett stole the show in Tottenham's 4-2 penalty shootout win over Sydney FC in a sign of how the club have changed.
The 17-year-old, who started the second half on the left but moved into his favoured attacking midfield position, opted for the first penalty and nonchalantly chipped a panenka down the middle.
It preceded a shootout in which Sydney FC duo Joe Lacey and Alexander Popovic hit the post and had a penalty saved by goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, with Sandro Tonali, debutant Andrew Robertson and Dane Scarlett all scoring to secure victory after a 1-1 draw.
Williams-Barnett stole the show to such an extent that his manager Roberto De Zerbi was describing him as a "precious diamond" after the match.
He added: "We have to work on him in the final third and he must work hard on his physicality. I've worked with a lot of young players in my time and he's a potentially special player."

LONDON, July 29 (Reuters) - Apple said on Wednesday that proposed UK rules governing its App Store would amount to price regulation, arguing that plans to loosen its control over in-app payments could undermine innovation and investment.
In a submission to Britain's Competition and Markets Authority, the iPhone maker said proposed "steering" requirements would go beyond promoting competition and give the regulator a "highly intrusive" role in managing its business.
The CMA's consultation, which closed on Monday, is part of its efforts to boost competition and consumer choice. Its proposed measures would allow app developers to direct users to payment options outside Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store and require any fees charged for such steering to be fair and reasonable.
Apple said the App Store facilitated more than £46.5 billion ($61.8 billion) in UK billings and sales in 2025, with commissions accounting for less than 3.5% of the total. It added that there was no evidence changes to its payment model would lower prices for consumers.

Indianapolis Colts' running back Jonathan Taylor is entering the final year of his current contract. During offseason programs, he said that he would "love to be a Colt for life."
Whether or not a new deal will be reached remains to be seen, but following Wednesday's first training camp practice, Taylor did say that there have "been some good conversations," according to ESPN's Stephen Holder.
Taylor added that he has "faith" that the two sides will be able to reach a new deal.
On Taylor's current deal, he is averaging $14 million per year, which ranks as the seventh-most among running backs. Perhaps of interest to Taylor as he looks for an extension, Devon Achane signed a four-year, $64 million extension this offseason, making him the third-highest-paid back in football.
From a production standpoint, Taylor remains one of the top backs in football, while shouldering a heavy workload out of the backfield. He played in 13 games in 2024 and all 17 games last season. rushing for 1,431 yards and 1,585 yards, respectively, as one of the more productive backs in football each year.

The Eastern Conference was a battlefield last season.
Each team that made the playoffs fought tooth and nail for their spot. Each round only became more intense. Going into next season, fans of the NHL can expect to see the competitive nature of this conference return.
Four teams are undoubtedly the strongest going into next season, and one that is the most competitive.
The Florida Panthers are a historically physical team. They are difficult to play against because they are not afraid to play a gritty game. In addition, this offseason, the Panthers have added multiple players that elevate their physical presence.
In the 2025-2026 NHL season, the Florida Panthers finished second in the league in hits per team with 2,024. Within this statistic, the Panthers had seven players finish the season with over 100 hits, and 11 players who averaged more than one hit per game. The Panthers accomplished this without their captain, Aleksander Barkov, or forward Matthew Tkachuk, who both averaged over a hit per game in the 2024-2025 season.

With the MLB trade deadline approaching, Milwaukee Brewers fans are wondering who may join the Crew, but on this day in 2006 the Brewers made perhaps their most-important free-agent signing of the past 20 years.
Not Mike Cameron or Lorenzo Cain − the Chorizo.
On July 29, 2006, the Brewers added a new runner to the famous in-game sausage race in honor of the team's Latino fanbase. It was Cerveceros day at American Family Field − then Miller Park − back then. Cerveceros is Spanish for beer-maker, aka a Brewer. Chorizo finished third in that first race, which would be its only one of the 2006 season. After its debut, Chorizo was sent down to the minors for "seasoning," according to the Brewers, and returned on opening day 2007.
"This really began as a grassroots email and letter-writing campaign," current Brewers president of business operations, Rich Schlesinger, said at the time. "At first, it was a few letters a week, and, to use a food ***** ogy, it mushroomed to something much larger. We started taking it seriously."
This season, Chorizo is at the bottom of the pack in competition on the field, however, and is tied with Hot Dog for last place at seven wins, which is a better showing than previous years. Chorizo has been in last place overall for the past three seasons and has been near the bottom for the other two of the past five.

TheThe Atlanta Falcons had no first-round pick in this year's draft thanks to the trade-up for edge rusher James Pearce. Their first selection didn't come until the middle of Round 2, which they used on Clemson cornerback Avieon Terrell, the younger brother of their top cornerback, A.J. Terrell.
During his time at Clemson, Terrell mostly played the boundary, but he did put in 110 snaps in the slot last season. As he begins his first year in the NFL, it hasn't been clear what role he will play for the Falcons as of yet.
New head coach Kevin Stefanski offered some clarity on that question today, telling reporters that Terrell will see snaps both outside and at nickel.
This is probably the right way to go about it. Finding where Terrell fits best with Jeff Ulbrich's defense should be a matter of trial and error rather than trying to force a square peg into a round hole, or a 5-foot-11 defensive back into the boundary position.
Since the Falcons placed starting nickel Billy Bowman Jr. on the PUP list Wednesday morning, we wouldn't be surprised to see Terrell get more time in the slot to begin training camp. The team also signed veteran Darnay Holmes for added nickel depth.

Kicker and all other reputable German footballing media sources confirm a base transfer fee of approximately €12.5m. Moreover, all sources corroborate the existence of performance bonuses tacked onto the deal.

The European Union has joined the Union of European Football ***** ociations (UEFA) in criticising FIFA's controversial plan to launch a new commercial company with external investment to sell a stake in the World Cup.
"The relentless commercialisation of football has become corrosive," EU Commissioner for Sport Glenn Micallef wrote on X on Wednesday. He added that a possible alignment of FIFA's regulatory powers with the financial interests of private entities is a concern for the European Commission.
FIFA announced on Tuesday it plans to create a $20 billion (around €17.6 billion) subsidiary to run the World Cup and other events, offering stakes of up to 20% to external investors. This would give FIFA members the chance "to access up to $20 million in one-off capital," according to the statement on the plan.
The move provoked a furious response from UEFA, which accused the football governing body of putting the game's "soul" up for sale.
"The European Commission will study these proposals carefully," Micallef said in response to the announcement, flagging that under EU treaties sporting rules are subject to EU law where they may have an impact on the European economy.

Formula One is seriously considering shifting its season finale as the U.S.–Iran war continues in the Middle East.
F1 president Stefano Domenicali told reporters on Wednesday that the finale of the 2026 season will be hosted in Europe if the "situation will not be cleared the way that we believe it should be." The last two races on the calendar are in Qatar and Abu Dhabi.
"For us today, the races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi are confirmed," Domenicali said. "By the way, they are already sold out."
He added that the deadline to make a decision is in the "middle of September."
F1 was slated to have a record-tying 24 races to start the season, but that quickly changed after races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia were canceled in March and April, respectively, due to the war.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have often been compared to Prince William and Kate Middleton. Recently, a royal expert revealed a major difference between the two royal couples. While they praised the Wales pair for maintaining "authenticity," they insisted the Sussexes allegedly lack that quality. They highlighted why people reportedly couldn't build trust around Markle and Harry.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly lack one key aspect compared to Prince William and Kate Middleton. A royal commentator and PR expert, Sharon Williams of Taurus Marketing, told News24 how different the two royal couples have been. According to her, the Sussexes often "swap and change" in the public eye. Meanwhile, the Wales couple are said to be "authentic."
"[Markle and Harry] have become famous for the very fact that you don't know what you're going to get. You literally don't know what they're going to do next. So they've not built an authentic brand, or at least she hasn't," the expert said.
Furthermore, she insisted that people loved Harry because he was "Diana's son." After marrying Markle, things seemed to have changed, but the couple allegedly "haven't quite worked out what they are." Reportedly, people seemed "tired" of them because of their lack of "authenticity."
Meanwhile, Middleton and William have performed their duties with that quality. According to the royal expert, the Wales pair has always been "honorable" and "dedicated" to their roles. "They don't come out and say unusual, surprising things. They are an authentic brand, and you know what you're going to get," she added.

Sources suggest that King Charles's offer for Prince Harry to stay at Buckingham Palace on his next visit may upset staff. They claim that their resentment over Harry's memoir and interviews is still there. This comes amid reports that Charles extended an olive branch to his younger son ahead of his next UK visit for various engagements around the annual WellChild Awards.
Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice reported that the palace staffers were "furious" when Prince Harry was offered palace accommodation during his recent UK visit. Additionally, insiders note that their feelings haven't changed and they still oppose his upcoming stay. The insider said, "The King may want Harry under his roof, but many of the people who work there don't. They felt deeply betrayed by everything that followed Spare and the interviews, and that resentment is still very real."
The source further claimed that staff opposition played a key role in the earlier cancellation of Harry's stay. While things will remain professional on the surface, the source added that this should not be mistaken for forgiveness. According to the source, those are "two different things." Despite the opposition from staffers, the monarch remains determined to make things right with Harry. The source stated that he would continue offering olive branches as part of this effort.
"Reconciliation isn't just about repairing a relationship between father and son. Harry also has to win back the people who keep the monarchy running every day—and that may be the toughest challenge of all. Don't be surprised if there's an unusual number of staff calling in sick the week he arrives," the insider continued.
Prince Harry is expected to return to the UK in September. However, it remains unclear if he would come alone or be joined by his family. Sources earlier shared that this time, the Duke of Sussex will accept the palace stay offer well in advance. Last time, his delay in acceptance allegedly led to cancellation.

King Charles was reportedly shocked by Meghan Markle's Princess Diana Instagram post. Interestingly, this comes after the Sussexes met King Charles and Queen Camilla at the monarch's Highgrove residence in Gloucestershire. For those unversed, Markle shared photos of Harry and their children visiting Diana's final resting place at Althorp, the Spencer family estate.
Reports claim that Meghan Markle's Instagram tribute to Princess Diana took King Charles aback. As per Rob Shuter, royal insiders dished: "This has upset people who normally defend Meghan." One source reportedly added that "the backlash isn't just coming from her critics anymore."
Reports claim that the decision of his younger daughter-in-law to showcase such a private moment on social media for the world to see "genuinely shocked" Charles.
The palace source shared: "The family has always treated Diana's grave as a place of quiet reflection. If she took the photo there, many believe she should never have posted it on social media."
Another royal source echoed the previous source's sentiments, stating: "Even people who usually refuse to comment on Harry and Meghan are wincing. The feeling is that some family moments are simply too sacred to share."

Video ******* istant referees should only be used to change "blatantly incorrect" decisions and clear missed incidents, say European refereeing officials.
Chief refereeing officers from all 55 European national football ******* ociations met last week with Uefa refereeing officials and a representative from the International Football ******* ociation Board (Ifab) to address recent changes to the game's laws.
Attendees said "lengthy, microscoping reviews" indicate VAR has gone beyond its original scope.
When VAR was added to the laws of the game in 2018 by football's rulemakers Ifab, its "philosophy" was "minimum interference - maximum benefit", with the intention of reducing "unfairness caused by clear and obvious errors or serious missed incidents" relating to goals, penalties, direct red cards and mistaken identity.
Uefa said that at its recent meeting that refereeing bosses agreed a return to those original aims is needed.

The Washington Commanders begin training camp on Wednesday. But before the players hit the field, general manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn met with the media to preview camp and provide some updates.
Peters began the media session with a pair of injury updates from training camp. Last week, the Commanders placed cornerback Trey Amos, edge rusher Dorance Armstrong and defensive end Deatrich Wise Jr. on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list to begin training camp.
Those moves weren't unexpected, considering all three players finished last season on injured reserve after suffering season-ending injuries.
You can add two more players to Washington's injury list to kick off camp: punter Tress Way and linebacker Kain Medrano. Fortunately, neither will be added to the PUP list.
"Tress Way and Kain Medrano are both dealing with injuries, so they won't be dressed up tomorrow," Peters said.

Bayern Munich are hoping the arrival of Nathaniel Brown will motivate Alphonso Davies to return to his best form, according to Sport1.
A club source told the outlet: "Thankfully, the competition for places here is brutal."
The Bayern hierarchy reportedly expects Davies to respond positively to the increased competition and consistently improve his performances, provided he can stay injury-free.
Although the Bundesliga champions would be prepared to listen to exceptional offers for the Canadian this summer, Sport1 reports that a departure currently appears unlikely.
Instead, Bayern expect Davies to remain at the club and use the added competition from Brown as an opportunity to prove his critics wrong with consistent displays throughout the season.
