For her appearance on Live with Kelly and Mark, Roberts wore a stunning dress from Monse's Spring/Summer 2027 ready-to-wear collection. The dress featured a delicate ivory base decorated with oversized floral prints in muted pink, purple, and green tones. However, the romantic pattern wasn't the only detail that caught attention.
The dress featured a semi-transparent fabric that revealed the silhouette underneath, giving the otherwise feminine design a daring edge. The fitted silhouette hugged her figure before falling into a flowing midi-length skirt. The dress also had delicate spaghetti straps and an asymmetrical neckline, with a soft fabric detail draped over one shoulder.

Colin Jost and Scarlett Johansson appear to have one thing in common beyond their successful careers. The couple shares a thoughtful approach to gift-giving. In a new interview, the "Saturday Night Live" star opened up about why he enjoys finding meaningful presents and admitted that his wife is even better at it. Jost also reflected on the gifts they treasure most and how they spend the holiday season together as a family.
While promoting Kay Jewelers' new holiday campaign, Colin Jost spoke to People about the importance of giving meaningful gifts. The comedian said he enjoys putting thought into every present instead of choosing something at random.
"I don't like getting just a random thing if it doesn't feel meaningful," Jost said. He explained that he likes finding gifts that remind people of a special memory or moment in their lives.
However, Jost admitted that Scarlett Johansson has the upper hand when it comes to thoughtful presents. "She's an excellent, very thoughtful and generous gift giver," he said. "I think we're a good gifting match."
The comedian added that many of the best gifts they have ever received came from each other. He even joked that their children are the greatest gifts of all. Jost and Johansson share son Cosmo, while the actress is also mother to daughter Rose from her previous marriage to Romain Dauriac.

Meghan Markle reportedly despises the feeling of "begging for acceptance" from the royal family. The report comes amid the speculation surrounding the ***** ss of Sussex and her husband Prince Harry's relationship with the senior members of the institution, following their return to Britain. Now, according to a new report, a source claimed that Markle has been perceiving that Kate Middleton and Prince William have control over the public conversation. And, it has reportedly been getting quite frustrating for her.
The alleged feeling of inferiority with respect to the royal family has reportedly not been sitting well with Meghan Markle. As reported by Heatworld, a source revealed that Kate Middleton has been "hoping the brothers can somehow work it out. She'll always have a soft spot for Harry and would love him back in the fold." This comes despite the Waleses' dignified silence regarding the Sussexes since their return to the UK.
However, according to the source, the Princess of Wales is aware that she has to handle the situation "tactfully" with her husband, Prince William. Per the source, however, she refuses to give up the hope that the two allegedly estranged brothers can reconcile one day.
Per the news outlet, the insider further claimed that Markle "can't stand the feeling that the royal family has the upper hand – and hates the idea of being portrayed as desperately trying to claw their way back in, only to be repeatedly rejected." According to the insider, "It's like they're begging for acceptance from people who have no intention of giving it."
Furthermore, the source also explained to the publication what Markle has been feeling about the entire situation and what she might do. According to the source, "There's a defiant side to Meghan." The ***** ss of Sussex will "do what she wants and won't allow the royals to determine or stop her happiness or success," the source added.

Bob Dylan has visited Pope Leo XIV in Rome.
The American singer-songwriter and poet visited with the pontiff at the Vatican during a break between concert dates in Italy.
A Vatican spokesperson shared that the encounter was a brief one, with Pope Leo giving Dylan a rosary, and Dylan presenting the pope with a copy of his autobiography, Chronicles: Volume One.
The Pope had previously quoted a1963 unpublished protest song of Dylan's in his own 2026 book, Disarmed and Disarming: Peace Is a Gift.
"I hate you cause yer man-made and man-owned, an' man-handled," he echoed about the recourse to nuclear weapons.
Dylan, who won the ****** el Prize for Literature in 2016, played for Pope John Paul II in 1997 during a concert at a religious congress in Bologna, Italy.

King Charles and Queen Camilla have had a successful visit to Antigua and Barbuda, following on from His Majesty's solo visits to the Bahamas and Guyana. On Thursday they will be touching down on UK soil, just in time for Bonfire Night. However, it may not be a big celebration in the royal household, and that's because of this one reason…
The royal couple have two dogs, Bluebell, a rescue Jack Russell Terrier adopted by Camilla from the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in 2012 and Moley, a part Jack Russell Terrier adopted from the same place in 2025.

It is well known that dogs can struggle with the loud bangs that come with fireworks, and are often unsettled during this time of year. Plus, the Jack Russell breed in particular, being a non-hunting breed, is said to not cope well with the sounds. So, Charles and Camilla may be spending their post-travel evening comforting their pooches if they aren't happy.
Advice on the Battersea Dogs Home website includes playing classical music to soothe and calm your pet, giving them a long-lasting chew to keep them distracted and also drawing the curtains to block out the light from fireworks.

Prince Harry and Prince William sent separate letters to congratulate the recipients of this year's Princess Diana Awards. The recipients were honored for making "positive change in their communities and beyond." This update comes a month after it was reported that King Charles could potentially bring the estranged brothers together. It would be for a major event related to their late mother.
According to PEOPLE, the royal brothers demonstrated a united front in honoring their late mother by sending separate messages to this year's Diana Award recipients. A total of 198 young leaders from 44 countries received letters from the Duke of Sussex and the Prince of Wales. Dr. Tessy Ojo CBE, chief executive of the Diana Award, celebrated the cohort in an official statement: "Their courage, compassion and determination to tackle some of the world's most pressing challenges are a powerful reminder that young people are the change makers of today."
She reflected on how these young people serve as a perfect example of how it doesn't matter what background or circumstances one comes from; the drive to make a difference remains universal. "They are building on Diana, Princess of Wales' legacy almost 30 years on," Ojo continued.
Last month, reports suggested that King Charles could help ease tensions between his sons through a 2027 thanksgiving service honoring Princess Diana. The proposed event would mark 30 years since her death. In the Daily Mail, columnist Ephraim Hardcastle reported that the King had apparently "raised no objection" to the service. Hardcastle also suggested that the religious event could help heal the brothers' rift, despite their apparent reluctance to work together. Another source reportedly described the service as an inspirational way to remember Diana, suggesting William could give a reading. The proposed service would be separate from the 2021 unveiling of Diana's statue at Kensington Palace, which was the brothers' last joint public engagement.

Mckenna Grace has been bringing some serious glamor to her latest press appearances. The actress stepped out in a striking gold ensemble while promoting "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping" in Spain. Her appearance on the Spanish television show "La Revuelta" was all about making a statement. She wore a daring outfit that perfectly complemented the occasion, featuring a micro minidress with a slit and a cutout.
For the appearance, McKenna Grace wore a stunning Sau Lee Caspian Jacquard Print Dress that combined a body-hugging silhouette with several eye-catching details. The metallic gold micro minidress featured a textured jacquard finish. This shimmered under the studio lights, giving the outfit a luxurious appearance.
However, the most striking feature was the massive cutout across the chest. The dress featured a halter-style neckline that wrapped around her neck before opening into a dramatic asymmetrical cutout. A small slit along one side of the skirt added another playful detail. This allowed the minidress to reveal even more of her legs as she moved around the television set.
Grace paired the gold number with sheer black tights and glossy black pointed-toe heels. The darker accessories created a striking contrast against the shimmering fabric while keeping the attention on the dress. Her blonde hair was styled into a sleek, low ponytail with a neat side part. She completed the look with gold-toned statement earrings from Sonia Petroff, which complemented the metallic finish of the outfit.
The Sau Lee dress also seemed particularly fitting for her upcoming film. Its rich golden color and textured appearance subtly echoed the extravagant fashion **** ociated with the Capitol in "The Hunger Games" universe. While the outfit was not presented as a direct reference to the franchise, its dramatic silhouette felt appropriate for the dystopian world.

Jennifer Lopez is raising eyebrows among her friend group by giving new man Brett Goldstein a very Ben Affleck-esque makeover, a source tells Star.
"When she looks in the mirror, she sees every little detail and how it could be improved and she tends to do the same thing with the men she dates," reveals the source. "She's not mean about it, she just helps them to look their best, and there's no denying her men always get a glow-up when they start dating her."
And her former Office Romance costar, 46, is no different.
"She's picking his clothes, advising him on how to style his hair and his beard, even his trademark eyebrows have gotten way less bushy since they got together," the source notes. "The funny thing is, her idea of his best look is getting closer and closer to Ben's. She's choosing all the same styles she likes on Ben. Even the way she's got him grooming his beard is the way she likes Ben's beard."

The nest egg needed to support a comfortable retirement varies widely by state.
Couples receiving dividend income may need a smaller nest egg, but those payments can fluctuate and aren't guaranteed.
Monthly dividends totaling $500 to $2,000 can shrink the required invested nest egg by $150,000 to $600,000.
Building a stream of dividend income is a common retirement strategy, giving couples regular cash flow that can help cover expenses without requiring them to sell as much of their portfolio.
An Investopedia ****** ysis found that a typical American couple age 65 or older needs about $1.16 million saved for a comfortable retirement after accounting for roughly $37,700 a year in Social Security. Across the 50 states and Washington, D.C., that figure ranges from about $800,000 to nearly $1.33 million.

Welcome to Week 8 of the fantasy football season! Below I have some players I think you should start and some I think you should sit. As usual, your mileage may vary depending on your available choices, so don't just blindly bench someone if you don't have a better option!

Prescott has been up and down this season, but he's coming off a strong Monday night game against the Eagles and now faces a bad Cardinals pass defense. Arizona has given up the most adjusted yards per attempt, the most receiving touchdowns, the second worst QB rating, and the second most yards per completion. Prescott is poised to pick up where he left off on Monday night.
If the Cardinals had better backup quarterbacks, I would be worried that Brissett might be benched during a game, but they don't. This week, as long as Brissett plays the whole game, it will be difficult for him not to accumulate fantasy points. I expect the Cowboys will be able to score on the Cardinals, while Brissett inefficiently tries to keep up through the air. Dallas, so far, has allowed the third worst completion percentage, the seventh worst average yards per attempt, and the third-worst yards per completion to opposing quarterbacks.
Murray continued to play poorly last week, but the Vikings also continued to win. Not trailing in games hurts Murray, as he doesn't need to run and throw as much to try to make up points. This week they'll face a Lions offense that should have more success against Brian Flores' top defense than any team this year. The Lions defense also remains the absolute worst at giving up fantasy points to quarterbacks. That has a lot to do with the Lions keeping teams throwing the ball from a deficit, but the results are hard to ignore.

Patriots' Receiver Concerns Put DeMario Douglas In Unexpected Spotlight originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The New England Patriots entered the season hoping their passing game would take another significant step forward with Drake Maye leading the offense. A.J. Brown was expected to play an important role in that development, giving Maye a proven receiving threat capable of making difficult catches and creating explosive plays.
Instead, the Patriots have spent much of the opening two months trying to keep their wide receiver group healthy.
Thursday brought another discouraging development when Brown missed practice because of ankle and knee issues.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that a knee problem had flared up, leaving Brown's availability for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins uncertain.

CLEVELAND — Jose Ramirez rescued the Guardians in the American League Division Series with a tremendous three-game run to lift Cleveland to the ALCS, but with their playoff journey coming to an end all the focus turns to an injury that hamstrung him for the second half of the season.
Ramirez underwent hamate bone surgery in mid-June and returned to the lineup July 22, but he was struggling to be as productive while playing through the left wrist/hand issue. It can often be difficult for hitters to fully return to form in the aftermath of a hamate bone surgery.
His season numbers had already been a bit down from his career averages, but after the procedure he hit just .229 with a .598 OPS over the final 53 games, a stretch that included only two home runs, as his power seemed to be sapped.
It was painfully clear Ramirez was playing while hurt and the procedure was having a negative impact. It was also unlikely he'd do further damage, and the Guardians appreciated anything the star third baseman might be able to give them. A one-handed Ramirez is still a better sight in the everyday lineup than calling someone off the bench, especially as he insisted to play every day.
"I mean, obviously, it took a toll on him," said Guardians manager Stephen Vogt, who also reiterated his commitment to Cleveland while some rumors about the Seattle Mariners had stated to run rampant. "He was out there giving us everything he had. He wasn't playing at 100 percent, but that never changed his demeanor or the way he went about his business. And I think that just speaks to who he is as a person and a baseball player.

Three academy players scored their first goals for Athletic Club's senior side inside four minutes as Edin Terzić's team beat Prat 6-1 in the Copa del Rey. The late burst came from substitutes in a side rotated with the Basque derby in mind.
On Thursday 29 October, Athletic met Prat in the Copa del Rey round of 128. The tie was played at the Estadi La Feixa Llarga in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat. Its closing stages belonged to Athletic's academy.
Each of the late scorers had come off the bench. Selton Sánchez finished the night with the sixth goal, teed up by Vizcay, whose own strike had started the flurry.
Aritz Conde earned an 8.2 rating from the data provider for his half-hour on the pitch. Imga, aged just 17, had made his first-team debut alongside Vizcay against Getafe the previous Sunday.
EFE reported that Athletic picked a starting XI shaped by the coming Basque derby, giving chances to players such as Yohaneko, Sannadi and Nico Serrano. Those changes did not slow the visitors.

The Chargers returned from their Week 7 bye with offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel addressing the media Thursday, giving a look at the work to get the offense on track ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Rams.
McDaniel did extensive film work with quarterback Justin Herbert. He said they watched "probably 4 hours" of tape together and called it "a very healthy experience." He stressed their strong relationship and a constructive approach to the struggles.
"There's a healthy way to be accountable, so you're not misdirecting blame to yourself when things aren't working," McDaniel said.
The Chargers remain the NFL's only winless team at 0-6, with the offense ranking last in points per game (15.0) after a season-low six points in the Week 6 loss to the Chiefs. Harbaugh confirmed Wednesday that McDaniel would keep the call sheet, stating, "We're very confident in Mike and his talent, his work ethic and his ability. We continue to be."
Herbert also recently backed his coordinator. On Wednesday, he said the issues are "not his fault, it's our fault as an offense," adding that "the guys are open" and "plays are being made," while stressing the need for better execution.

Nuggets' fatal flaw that will doom 2027 NBA championship chances appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Denver Nuggets have started the season off with just two wins in four contests, with both of those victories coming against the New Orleans Pelicans. Their latest victory, which came on Wednesday, was, at the very least, convincing, unlike their first win against the Pelicans which required them to come back from 23 down.
Injury problems are already giving the Nuggets trouble. Cam Johnson had to exit Denver's first game of the season due to an ankle injury, making life difficult for a team that's already missing sharpshooting forward Spencer Jones, whom they re-signed this past offseason.
There are already quite a few red flags that should worry Nuggets fans about their team through the early goings of the season. Perhaps the team rectifies it as the season moves forward, but some flaws may be too difficult to overcome as they seek out to compete for another NBA championship.

Running back Chuba Hubbard has been the best player on the Panthers' offense with 118 total yards and a touchdown. Young's touchdown pass to ***** er was his first of the night. It was also ***** er's first touchdown since his two-touchdown performance against the Chicago Bears in the season opener.

Tyler Ankrum nearly captured his first NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series victory of the 2026 season during Friday's Love's RV Stop 225 at Talladega Superspeedway. The McAnally-Hilgemann Racing driver started seventh and finished second after an intense four-wide battle approaching the checkered flag.
Ankrum remained competitive throughout the afternoon, navigating the shifting drafting lanes while several championship contenders experienced significant problems. His No. 18 Chevrolet stayed among the leading group during the final stage, giving him an opportunity to challenge for the victory when the race entered overtime.
Ankrum restarted among the front-running trucks and maintained enough momentum to reach the finish line alongside Austin Green, Ty Majeski and Kaden Honeycutt. Although Sammy Smith secured the victory by 0.091 seconds, Ankrum narrowly defeated Green for second place by just 0.002 seconds.
The runner-up finish marked Ankrum's seventh top-10 result of the season and fourth career top-10 finish at Talladega. He also earned 35 points, providing an important boost to his championship total. Ankrum remains ninth in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Chase standings with 2,157 points, trailing championship leader Honeycutt by 214 markers.
Although his championship chances have ended, Ankrum will look to build on his strong Talladega performance at Martinsville and Homestead-Miami.

All Pro guard Quenton Nelson is preparing to make his Seattle Seahawks debut Monday night against the Chicago Bears, giving the Seahawks an eight-time Pro Bowl and three-time All-Pro presence on their offensive line.
But before Nelson takes his first snap in a Seahawks uniform, he has another challenge: moving his life and family from Indianapolis to a place they have never lived.
The Seahawks are working to make that transition as easy as possible while getting their new guard ready for primetime.
Nelson's reputation as a dominant interior lineman preceded his arrival in Seattle. When head coach Mike Macdonald was asked what stood out while watching Nelson's tape, his answer was simple.
"Well, they run it left," Macdonald said. "He's a guy you want to run behind. I know that."

ATHENS — Concord University esports will host a Dead by Daylight tournament on Oct. 30 in an effort to bring students and members of the surrounding community together for a Halloween-themed competition.
Nathan Lockhart, ****** istant director of Concord esports, said the program began planning the tournament over the summer as a way to celebrate Halloween while giving people another reason to visit campus.
"We figured, what would be a better way to celebrate Halloween on a weekday than having a game about horror?" Lockhart said.
Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer horror game in which four players act as survivors while another takes on the role of the killer. The survivors attempt to escape while the killer tries to eliminate them.
Lockhart said several members of Concord's esports program already play the game regularly, which makes it a natural choice for the event.

Harpeth Hall outlasted Christ Presbyterian Academy, 2-1, to capture the 2026 TSSAA girls soccer state championship in Division II-AA at Finley Stadium in Chattanooga on Oct. 29.
It's the first championship for Harpeth Hall since 2021 and the program's third overall, including its 2013 ******* le. It was the Honeybears' first state tournament appearance since 2024 and first state championship appearance since 2023.

Harpeth Hall (17-8-4) would slowly build momentum after giving up that opening goal, taking four of the next five shots in the game before Akatue's equalizer in the 27th minute off an ******* ist from Sarb.

Costco has built a reputation on low prices, bulk deals, and member-exclusive perks. But one of the warehouse club's most recognizable attractions is also one of its most controversial: the food court.
For many shoppers, a trip to Costco isn't complete without a $1.50 hot dog and soda, a slice of pizza, or another inexpensive bite after navigating the warehouse's crowded aisles.
The food court has become an important part of the Costco experience, reinforcing the retailer's value-focused image and giving members another reason to shop.
The hot dog deal, whose $1.50 price point has been locked in since 1985, is particularly iconic.

Walmart is reworking an iconic piece of pop culture history to bolster its holiday marketing and a "Who Knew?" brand platform starring Walton Goggins. The goal is to offer a unified marketing push with multigenerational appeal throughout the crucial gift-giving season.
The retailer in the past ran separate campaigns around different legs of the holiday season, such as the ramp-up to Black Friday, but has leveraged "Who Knew?" to streamline its storytelling. "Who Knew?," which launched last year, was developed to dispel misperceptions about the brand and position it as more style- and trend-forward as Walmart wins over higher-income shoppers.
"The holidays are an incredibly cluttered period of time from an advertising standpoint, and so the ability to break through is really important," Walmart CMO William White said in an interview. "Having one [theme], one campaign throughout the season allows a really quick read for customers to know it's Walmart."

As per an author, Queen Camilla and Prince William's meeting has triggered an unforeseen development. The news emerges amid royal family tensions heightened since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's UK return. The Duke of Sussex is now in the headlines after expressing his wish to reconcile with the royal family.
Queen Camilla's first meeting with Prince William reportedly left her so flustered that she instantly needed a gin and tonic. The claim comes from a royal biographer who detailed the seemingly awkward context of their first introduction.
In her biography "Queen Consort: The Life of Queen Camilla," author Penny Junor revisited the meeting. She wrote that the Queen Consort had even offered to step out of the house to avoid causing William any discomfort.
King Charles reportedly brushed off her worries, calling them "ridiculous," and went ahead with plans for her to meet his son after school. They scheduled the introduction for around 7 pm. But the royal heir showed up four hours ahead of time, giving her far less time to get ready than she had expected.
Rather than delaying the moment, Charles apparently urged them to face the unease head-on. However, after spending around 30 minutes with her future stepson, the former ***** ss of Cornwall reportedly came out of the meeting and said, "I need a gin and tonic."

Prince William has said giving Sir Kevin Sinfield his knighthood, is "probably one of the easiest decisions anyone's ever had to make".
The future King has appeared in an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast to share his personal admiration for Sir Kevin, who recently completed seven ultra marathons in seven days.
Sir Kevin took part in the extreme endurance challenge to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease (MND) charities following the death of his best friend and former rugby team-mate, Rob Burrow from the condition in 2024.
"I think frankly he should have been Sir Kevin years ago," said Prince William.
"What Kevin does, is he can bind and glue communities together by being that leader. The more Kevs we have in this country the better."

CLEVELAND — A lack of offense put the Guardians' backs firmly against the wall against the Chicago White Sox in an American League Division Series before Jose Ramirez came to the rescue in three consecutive games.
Now in the AL Championship Series, an all-too-familiar — and all-too-unwelcome — lack of timely hitting has every ounce of the Guardians' weight again on their heels, with nowhere else to go but forward or home.
The Guardians lost 3-1 to the Rays in Game 5 of the ALCS, giving Tampa Bay a 3-2 series lead and putting the Rays on the brink of a World Series berth. Trailing in the series for the first time, the Guardians travel to Tampa Bay (without the benefit of an off day to regroup after Game 4 was pushed back) for must-win Games 6 and 7.
They had to win three consecutive games to get to the ALCS. Now, they must again defy the odds and rally to win two connective road games to play the Milwaukee Brewers in the World Series.
"I think it'll help a ton knowing we're able to do it, facing elimination," said outfielder Steven Kwan, who made two highlight reel defensive plays in Game 5 to save at least two runs. "I think we feel a little better on this one as opposed to the [ALDS] since we've got some wins under our belt.

Jordan Henderson says it is an "absolute privilege and honour" to be playing in this Chelsea team, after the midfielder helped the Blues record back-to-back wins for the first time since his arrival.
Henderson's introduction to Chelsea supporters was delayed by an arm injury he picked up with England at the FIFA World Cup in the summer. He has made up for lost time since returning, marking his home debut with two goals and an ****** ist in the 5-1 win over Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge, with his first goal arriving with just one minute on the clock.
He followed that up on Saturday as Chelsea beat previously unbeaten Everton 2-0. Pedro Neto scored both goals, handing Everton their first defeat of 2026/27Premier League season, giving Chelsea a first-ever win at the Hill ****** inson Stadium and lifting them to fourth in the Premier League, the club reported.
Henderson was a surprise signing at Chelsea in the summer, with the veteran arriving from Brentford on a free transfer.
The 36-year-old has added vital experience to the Chelsea dressing room, and says he is relishing a leadership role in a talented group.
