Sofia Vergara's dating life is back in the spotlight. A late-night dinner in Beverly Hills has set tongues wagging, as the pictures show the actress enjoying a relaxed evening with Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds. While the duo was not alone at the table, the attention stayed firmly on the two of them. What happened as the night wound down adds another twist to their tale.
Deuxmoi shared the images on Instagram, mentioning that the pair were photographed at an intimate dinner at Cipriani in Beverly Hills. TMZ also obtained photos and video of the evening. According to the outlet, Sofia Vergara and Dan Reynolds held hands throughout their late-night meal.
The photos capture an easy, affectionate rapport. Vergara, 54, is seen smiling broadly as she leans across the table, her chin resting on one fist while Reynolds, 39, holds her other hand. Their chemistry also appeared undeniable.
Two friends joined them for the meal, including Anastasia Soare, who was seated beside Vergara. Even with friends at the table, the images keep the focus on the two of them. They also appeared to be chatting animatedly and enjoying a relaxed night out. As the night wound down, reports suggest that the pair slipped out through the restaurant's back door at around 12:30 am.
The outing also comes as Vergara's past marriage is making headlines once again. Her ex-husband, Joe Manganiello, made several claims about their past relationship in his new memoir, "Bloodlines."

Social Security provides about 30% of older Americans' household income, according to a Congressional Research Service report.
Earnings, pensions, retirement account withdrawals, and investments also contribute to older Americans' income.
Social Security's share of income rises with age, reaching about 40% among adults 80 and older.
You may envision relying on Social Security during retirement, but the data show older adults tend to depend on other income sources.
About 19% of Americans 65 and older whose households received Social Security relied on it for 90% or more of household income in 2019, according to a 2025 Congressional Research Service report. Other sources fill the gap, according to the **** ysis: earnings, pension and retirement fund payments, and income from **** ets. The report matched Social Security Administration records with survey responses and included people still working.

Data centers have emerged as a national issue during this midterm election cycle, and candidates for the House and Senate have seized on it in their campaigns.
But state and local officials actually have more sway over data center construction and energy infrastructure, so the winners of lower-profile races may hold the economy's future in their hands.
Hyperscalers have been spending hundreds of billions of dollars a year, with forecasts for 2027 topping $1 trillion. JPMorgan has estimated AI-related investment was responsible for about one-fifth of GDP growth over the past year. ******* ysts at ING believe AI will account for a third of growth in 2026.
With Election Day just over a week away and early voting already in full swing in many states, expectations for big Democratic gains could weigh on the stock market, which has sold off in recent days on fears the AI boom will go bust.
If there is a further stock slump, it will be because a "blue wave" at the state and local levels will usher in lawmakers opposed to data centers, Thierry Wizman, global FX and rates strategist at Macquarie, said in a note on Monday.

With the federal budget deficit at $2 trillion and debt-interest costs topping $1 trillion a year, it may be tempting to look for extra cash under the sofa cushions.
Urgency has grown in recent months as Treasury yields have soared to the highest levels in more than 20 years, putting more pressure on interest expenses.
The Treasury Department has tried some unconventional measures recently to take the heat off yields, including buybacks of more long-dated debt and its intervention to prop up the yen that let ***** an avoid selling its Treasuries.
Given such surprises, speculation has grown around even more far-out tactics. One idea that comes up from time to time is for the Treasury Department to price its immense gold holdings at market rates.
The U.S. has the world's largest gold reserves, which total about 261.5 million ounces, or more than double what No. 2 holder Germany has. But the U.S. ***** d's official price was set by Congress in 1973 at $42.22 per ounce, and it hasn't changed since.

Suze Orman favors quality dividend-paying stocks over bonds for retirees, arguing rising dividends better protect income from inflation than fixed coupons.
A $500,000 Treasury at 4.96% yields $24,800 annually, but a dividend portfolio growing 6% yearly surpasses that income after roughly nine years.
Retirees with a spending gap should hold five years of that gap in Treasuries, TIPS, or CDs to avoid selling stocks during a downturn.

Suze Orman has spent years nudging retirees toward stocks that pay them. On her podcast episode Suze's Projections for 2026, released January 11, 2026, she described the income approach she prefers: "as time goes on and you are older and you're looking for income, dividend-paying stocks that are good quality, that pay you a good dividend along with some of your money invested purely for growth."

The 2026 World Series could be set Monday night, with the Rays on the brink of advancing as they host Game 6 against the Guardians.
Tampa Bay's 3-1 win Sunday put Cleveland on the brink, needing a pair of wins at Tropicana Field to return to the Fall Classic for the first time since 2016. The Rays are trying to reach the World Series for the third time, but their most recent trip came in the COVID-shortened 2020 season when all the games were played in Arlington, Texas, so their fans mostly missed out that time.
The Rays got a brilliant pitching performance from Drew Rasmussen in Game 5 and will look for more of the same Monday with veteran Freddy Peralta on the mound. The trade-deadline acquisition started Game 2 of this series and was dominant, holding the Guardians to four hits in six scoreless innings of a 3-1 Tampa Bay win. He also pitched 2/3 of an inning in relief Saturday in Game 4.
Cleveland's pitching situation is unclear but it will be all hands on deck for Stephen Vogt as the Guardians hope their offense can get going the way it did to turn around the Division Series against the White Sox. Can they stay alive, or will the top-seeded Rays move on?

It could be argued that, after falling to 2-4 and seeing many of the grand plans of this 2026 Dallas Cowboys team sit utterly deflated following a 23-13 loss to the Packers on Sunday night in Green Bay, coach Brian Schottenheimer was in an impossible situation. What to say to your NFL team, after a devastating loss in which you were dominated on both sides of the ball, in which any progress made on the defensive side of the ball in the second half was offset first by the defense's poor play in the first half and the offense's poor play overall?
But Schottenheimer did go to the podium for his press conference on Sunday night and was asked what he said to the team.
His message: "The effort is right, the fight is right, but mistakes are killing us. Repeating mistakes is not what we're about. But we've got to protect the football. Five turnovers in two games, not very good. Got to find the running game. That starts with myself and the offensive staff. Got to get off the field on third down on defense, whether that's penalties or losing 1-on-1s. So, we got to clean it up. Lost two games in a row, not playing well. Got to take a hard look at it. Starts with me."
It is hard to say that, given the level of talent on this team–on the offensive line, in the receiver's room, at quarterback, at running back–that mistakes alone are the problem. The Cowboys did play harder and more aggressively on Sunday in Green Bay, that was obvious. But that also raises the question of where that effort and aggressiveness was in Week 5 against the Buccaneers, as well as at other times this season?
And, it could be argued, that the tendency toward mistakes with penalties and turnovers are a symptom of poor preparation and discipline. That's part of effort, and part of fight. So, it's hard to say that it's mistakes alone that are holding the team back.

Seeking a route back to winning ways after a stunning 4-3 home loss to Club Brugge in midweek Champions League action, Inter head to Stadio Renato Dall'Ara to face Bologna on Saturday. Despite another disappointing result in Europe, the reigning Serie A holders are leading the way in the domestic championship after six rounds.
Except for a dramatic 2-2 draw against Roma on the stroke of the international break, Cristian Chivu's charges have won all five remaining league fixtures this season, including a 3-0 rout of Parma last weekend. However, there's no room for complacency, as they sit level on points with early surprise package Lazio ahead of Saturday's kickoff.
In stark contrast, Bologna have endured a rough start to the season, picking up just two points from the opening five matchdays (D2, L3). It sent a signal to the club that it was time for new boss Domenico Tedesco to go, with Raffaele Palladino taking his place in the dugout just before the international break. The change paid off quickly as the Rossoblu eked out a 2-1 win at Lecce on the Italian's road debut last time out.
Buoyed by last weekend's triumph, Bologna fans are looking forward to Inter's visit, knowing the Nerazzurri have only won one of the last five Serie A meetings between the sides (D2, L2).

The Green Bay Packers' defense hasn't had Micah Parsons on the field this season. However, it found another way to shut the door on Sunday night. The Packers beat the Dallas Cowboys 23-13 at Lambeau Field, holding Dak Prescott to 34-of-54 passing for 258 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.
Notably, it was the third straight game Green Bay has held an opponent to 14 points or fewer, a feat that prompted former Packers QB Kurt Benkert to highlight Green Bay's defense on X.
Benkert focused on how the Packers were doing great teamwork on defense.
He wrote that seeing the defense "schematically causing problems for high-powered offenses" has him "really excited for what December and January football can look like for them."
The Packers' defense streak started with a 17-14 win at Tampa Bay on Oct. 4 against Jalon Daniels. Next came a 31-7 win over Chicago and quarterbacks Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent on Oct. 11, when Green Bay forced five turnovers and Xavier McKinney picked off two passes. On Sunday, Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens came to town.

Notre Dame is now 6-1 and ranked No. 4 in the AP Top 25 after a weird, wild, and controversial loss to the BYU Cougars. Yes, I think the Irish got hosed out of one final play, but none of that matters now. We saw 59 minutes and 59 seconds of football, and there are some things we learned.
Last week Boomer called Boubacar Traore a renaissance man, and he was absolutely right. This week… we got five plays out of Traore before he was ejected for targeting Bear Bachmeier on a late hit. Despite Notre Dame's depth at the position, the loss of Traore was massive for the Irish in the game —particularly in the first half when the defense was on its heels and needed better play up front to slow down what BYU was doing. The loss of Traore might very well be the essence of the full reason for Notre Dame's loss.
This second thing was supposed to be about Jonaz Walton and I went looking for snap counts. While the entire deal about Walton is valid and should be talked about after only getting 10 of the 81 snaps after rushing for 181 yards last week… the wide receiver situation might be the most heinous thing about the offense. On a night where Notre Dame's receivers couldn't get much separation from Cougar defenders, maybe they were gassed? The elevation was well over 5000 feet and Notre Dame only used 4 wide receivers all night. Jordan Faison, Micah Gilbert, and Jaden Greathouse were out there for almost every snap, and the fourth… well that was Mylan Graham with a whopping two snaps for the night.
For a good part of the first half, Notre Dame's defense didn't just play poorly — they looked confused. Presnap lineups and adjustments had several defenders running to the spot they were supposed to be, and BYU was snapping the ball before they got there. It looked very much like the Miami game last year, and some of that confusion led to slow and soft play. This, of course, is a Chris Ash problem and they made the proper adjustments at halftime to hold BYU to just 126 yards and 7 points in the final 29 minutes and 59 seconds of play. But… this is still a thing and will kill the Irish in a few weeks against Miami if it's not fixed for a full 59 minutes and 59 seconds — or do we play 60 minute games now?

The Dallas Cowboys dropped a 23-13 road game to the Green Bay Packers which led to coach Brian Schottenheimer talking about what is "killing" his team afterward. Cameras showed Dak Prescott's team walking to the locker room in stunned silence after their dud on prime time TV.
Afterward, Prescott spoke candidly about the defense's performance in a game that wasn't what fans hoped it would be at Lambeau Field, in comments to Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News.
"I mean defense to me played a good enough game for us to go out there and win this and we just didn't hold our own on offense," Prescott, who threw two interceptions, said.

Getafe president Angel Torres has confirmed that the club could pursue a deal for Sergio Ramos after holding talks with the defender's representatives.
However, a move for the former Real Madrid captain is not currently a priority.
The Spanish side recently signed Dani Carvajal, and they are keeping the door open to another reunion involving a former Real Madrid star.
Speaking to Radio Nacional de Espana's Tablero Deportivo programme on Sunday, Torres revealed that he had spoken to Rene Ramos, Sergio's brother and agent.
They discussed the possibility of bringing the experienced former Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain centre-back to Getafe.

Babar Azam reached another milestone in his international career on Sunday, becoming the fifth Pakistan batter to score 16,000 international runs during the first ODI of the tri-series against Sri Lanka in Rawalpindi.
Babar entered the match with 15,993 runs and needed seven more to reach the 16,000-run mark. He achieved the feat in the fourth over of the day, having come out to bat after Saim Ayub was dismissed by Dilshan Madushanka. Babar needed just six deliveries to complete the milestone, getting there with a three off Asitha Fernando.
Since making his international debut for Pakistan in 2015, Babar has established himself across formats. The match against Sri Lanka was his 355th in international cricket. However, he fell short of a half-century, getting out for 45 to Pavan Rathnayake off Eshan Malinga.
Before Babar, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Younis Khan, Mohammad Yousuf and Javed Miandad were the four Pakistan batters to cross 16,000 international runs.
Inzamam leads Pakistan's run-scorers in international cricket with 20,541 runs in 495 matches across formats between 1991 and 2007. Younis is next with 17,790 runs, followed by Yousuf, who scored 17,134 runs in 374 matches.
Miandad, who represented Pakistan in Tests and ODIs from 1975 to 1996, finished his career with 16,213 runs in 357 matches.
India's Sachin Tendulkar holds the world record for the most runs in international cricket. He scored 34,357 runs during his career, which spanned from 1989 to 2013.
Virat Kohli is second on the list with 28,527 international runs.

Babar needed just six deliveries to complete the milestone, getting there with a three off Asitha Fernando.
Since making his international debut for Pakistan in 2015, Babar has established himself across formats. The match against Sri Lanka was his 355th in international cricket. However, he fell short of a half-century, getting out for 45 to Pavan Rathnayake off Eshan Malinga.
Before Babar, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Younis Khan, Mohammad Yousuf and Javed Miandad were the four Pakistan batters to cross 16,000 international runs.
Inzamam leads Pakistan's run-scorers in international cricket with 20,541 runs in 495 matches across formats between 1991 and 2007. Younis is next with 17,790 runs, followed by Yousuf, who scored 17,134 runs in 374 matches.
Miandad, who represented Pakistan in Tests and ODIs from 1975 to 1996, finished his career with 16,213 runs in 357 matches.
India's Sachin Tendulkar holds the world record for the most runs in international cricket. He scored 34,357 runs during his career, which spanned from 1989 to 2013.
Virat Kohli is second on the list with 28,527 international runs.

Buffalo Bills safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson faced backlash from the NFL world after getting ejected from the Week 6 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He appeared to spit on Raiders tight end Brock Bowers, right after the Bills received a defensive holding penalty in the second quarter.
But Gardner-Johnson came to his senses pretty quickly. Talking to the media inside the locker room, he acknowledged that what he did was wrong. He let his emotions take control in the heat of the moment. That's certainly something that no veteran should do. Hence, he took to his Instagram Story and shared an apology.
"I want to take a moment to address my actions and sincerely apologize to my opponent, my teammates, my organization, and everyone who supports me," Gardner-Johnson wrote. "My passion and competitive nature have always been a huge part of who I am, but I also understand that there is a line that should never be crossed. The gesture I made toward my opponent was inappropriate, unnecessary, and not a reflection of the respect I have for him or this game."
Gardner-Johnson further noted that there's "no excuse" for spitting on his opponent, regardless of the intensity of the competition. He is playing his eighth season this year, making him a responsible figure in the Bills locker room.

The Green Bay Packers got a pair of first half touchdowns from Jordan Love to take a commanding lead, and Jonathan Gannon's aggressive defense confounded Dak Prescott the rest of the way, leading Matt LaFleur's team to a 23-13 win over the Dallas Cowboys on "Sunday Night Football" in Week 6. The Packers have now won three straight games since a 1-2 start.
Highlighting the good, the bad and the ugly coming out of the Packers' primetime win over the Cowboys:
The start on offense, and finish on defense: Jordan Love was picked off on Green Bay's second possession, but the Packers offense scored on three of the four first-half drives, all gaining at least 70 yards. The long, time-consuming drives helped the Packers keep the Dallas offense on the sideline and build a 17-0 lead at the half. But when the Packers offense sputtered over the final 30 minutes, Jonathan Gannon's defense had answers, producing a pair of stops on fourth down in the fourth quarter. The garbage time touchdown meant little. The Packers ended up holding the Cowboys to only 13 points, a winning performance 10 times out of 10.
Love under pressure: Jordan Love's passer rating finished at 74.8, a pedestrian number in today's NFL, but drops drastically affected his final stat line, and Love was excellent when pressured. He found completions on 11 pressured dropbacks. Many of his best throws came on third down against pressure. The Packers started the game converting nine of the first 10 opportunities on third down.
The offensive line: Sunday night was a step backwards for the offensive line, which allowed Jordan Love to be pressured on 45.5 percent of his dropbacks, per Next Gen Stats, and paved the way for a lifeless run game that averaged 2.2 yards per carry. Love was sacked three times, and the Cowboys were credited with eight quarterback hits. In the run game, the Packers didn't have a designed run over six yards, and the three running backs combined to rush 20 times for 36 yards. Matt LaFleur wants to build continuity up front, but it's probably time to see what Kevin Zeitler can do at right guard, and there will be a decision to make on who starts at left guard between Laken Tomlinson and Aaron Banks next week.

The Tampa Bay Rays are one win away from reaching the World Series after defeating the Cleveland Guardians 3-1 in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series on Sunday. Behind another outstanding postseason performance from starting pitcher Drew Rasmussen and timely hitting throughout the lineup, Tampa Bay took a 3-2 lead in the best of seven series.
The Rays entered the matchup looking to build on Saturday's 7-3 victory, which evened the series at two games apiece. They delivered another strong performance in Cleveland, putting themselves in position to clinch the American League pennant on their home field.
Rasmussen was the biggest difference-maker Sunday, holding Cleveland to one run on four hits across seven innings. He consistently kept the Guardians' hitters off balance, limiting scoring opportunities and giving Tampa Bay's offense time to build an advantage.
The outing continued Rasmussen's impressive postseason run. His performance helped the Rays control the game from the early innings and put pressure on Cleveland to find answers against Tampa Bay's pitching staff.
Rasmussen's ability to work deep into the game also protected the bullpen, allowing the Rays to turn the final two innings over to their relievers with a lead.

A handshake agreement. That's the term I saw all weekend regarding the College Football Playoff expanding from 12 teams to 24 beginning next year, with ESPN remaining the sole rights holder. There are positives and negatives to the reported deal, and it was refreshing to hear discourse on both sides of the argument across ESPN's networks this weekend. That's something college football fans didn't get with the network's coverage of the Protect College Sports Act.
However, in the end, ESPN owns all the goods. Again. The network has been the exclusive rights holder since the playoff began just 12 years ago. Fans can debate whether expanding the playoff to 24 teams will diminish the weekly must-win stakes of college football or lead to the elimination of conference championship games for major conferences. One thing remains clear: ESPN controls the entire package. That raises a question: If the sport wants to expand on the field, why can't it expand how those games are broadcast?
The old saying goes, "Follow the money." After signing a six-year, $7.8 billion exclusive extension in 2024, ESPN received an exclusive 30-day window to negotiate with the College Football Playoff over expansion. That window expired, but a handshake agreement was reportedly reached in the days that followed.
As a result, FOX Sports, CBS Sports/TNT Sports/Skydance, NBC Sports, and others never had an opportunity to compete for the expanded package during that window. Has ESPN dominated college football coverage for generations? Of course. Is watching College GameDay part of the average fan's Saturday routine during the fall? Absolutely.
But imagine if the NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL handled their biggest events the same way. Imagine if Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady were left out of the NFL's biggest games. What if Kenny Albert and Eddie Olczyk never got the opportunity to call the Stanley Cup Final?

Ravens' Calais Campbell points to missed opportunity after Derrick Henry turnover appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Coach Jesse Minter's Baltimore Ravens lost a 13-10 road contest to Todd Monken's Cleveland Browns on a day when Derrick Henry took accountability for a crucial fumble. Tyler 'Snoop' Huntley showed his value to the team with a decent game, but missed opportunities haunted the Ravens QB, and defense, as the smoked cleared on a rough loss.
Afterward, Ravens defensive tackle Calais Campbell pointed out a missed opportunity following the Henry turnover.
"We got a good gameplan…I think that we executed well, it was just one of those days where we didn't do enough to win it. It would have been nice to have a TV timeout there (after the fumble)…We had to just go, I think that hurt us because they got seven…We gotta find a way to protect our brother in that moment and figure out a way to hold them to three (points). We gotta find a way to make those plays."

The Dallas Cowboys came into Lambeau Field on Sunday Night Football with a high-powered offense. Dak Prescott and company led the offense in many drive-based statistics, including the percentage of offensive drives ending in a score, plays per drive, and yards per drive.
Against Jonathan Gannon's aggressive Green Bay Packers defense, the Cowboys managed just seven points on nine offensive drives as the green and gold expanded their league-leading interception numbers. Evan Williams and rookie Brandon Cisse each picked off Dak Prescott, who was under pressure all night long, as the defense led the way in a 23-13 win that improved the Packers' record to 4-2.
Prescott's counterpart, Jordan Love, shook off an early interception of his own to put up a high-quality performance. That pick could have been a truly game-changing play, as it was originally returned for a touchdown that would have tied the game at 7 early on. Instead, the scoring return was nullified on review and the Packers' defense ended up getting a stop to keep Dallas off the scoreboard. The Packers' offense went on to convert each of their first seven third-down opportunities and finished 11-of-18 for the game as Love delivered under pressure time and time again.
Ultimately, Love failed to record multiple touchdown passes for the first time in a game all season, but it wasn't for lack of trying; he saw three potential touchdown passes get dropped by his receivers, but still managed to throw for 276 yards. Matthew Golden was the biggest offender, with two of those dropped scores and a third drop later in the game, but he did end the game with an excellent stat line: six catches for 104 yards and the only receiving touchdown of the game. Additionally, Love did end up being responsible for a second touchdown, getting the Packers' other score on a quarterback sneak just before halftime as the team led 17-0 heading into the break.
The Green Bay defense kept up its excellent play in the second half. After giving up a single touchdown early in the third quarter, they forced turnovers on downs twice in the fourth before allowing a touchdown in garbage time while holding a 16-point lead — though they came up with a big stop on the two-point conversion to largely put an end to the game.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid delivers an update on Travis Kelce's injury after defeating the Chargers. Getty
After their bye week, the Kansas City Chiefs came back and crushed the Los Angeles Chargers 22-6. Their perfect record holds as they're now 6-0 on the season.
However, the game started with a big scare when Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce limped off the field with an ankle injury. After a questionable tackle by Chargers linebacker Daiyan Henley, Kelce sat on the medical table and got his ankle wrapped.
Chiefs Kingdom collectively held their breath after Kelce's early exit, including his wife, Taylor Swift, who made it to Arrowhead Stadium after her big performance at the Academy Museum Gala. However, Kelce was able to return and finish the game, catching 4-of-5 targets for 53 yards.

The Big 12 is suddenly the conference driving college football's playoff race originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Big 12 came out of Saturday's chaos with something more valuable than a few headline wins: a stronger place in the national conversation.
The latest AP Top 25 includes five Big 12 teams, a season high for the conference. BYU leads the group at No. 2, followed by Texas Tech at No. 8, Utah at No. 10, Houston at No. 14 and Arizona at No. 25.
That is a substantial shift in the playoff picture. The Big 12 has not just one team positioned near the top; it has multiple programs ranked inside the top 15 and another holding a place in the poll.
BYU's rise to No. 2 is the most eye-catching part of the conference's week. It is the Cougars' highest ranking since their 1984 national championship season, giving the program a national profile it has not held in decades.

The Cowboys are on the board.
Needing a stop and a score, Dallas got exactly that and now trails Green Bay 17-7.
The Packers received the second-half kickoff, but their drive was quickly derailed by an offensive holding penalty on the first play of the possession.
After the three-and-out, Dallas used a seven-play, 46-yard drive to get in the end zone with Javonte Williams' 1-yard touchdown.
Dallas converted fourth-and-2 with a pass to CeeDee Lamb to keep the chains moving.

Jessica Chastain cried on command and showed off her sinister "Other Mommy" smile on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," earning praise from the internet Thursday.
The Academy Award-winning actress taught the late-night host and his audience how she crafted the creepy smile for her upcoming horror film. She shared that the trick was to hold tension in her body while plastering on a fake smile.
Chastain shook slightly as she locked into the expression, dropping a single tear as she stared down the camera lens.
"You just spurted out that tear with no problem like that?" the late night host asked.
"I'm a trained actress, Jimmy," she replied.

Actor C.W. Morgan has passed away at the age of 72. He was known for playing Billy Loomis' father in Scream and Scream 3. According to medical reports, Morgan died on August 30, 2026, though the reason has not been disclosed.
The confirmation of his death comes from Los Angeles County Medical Examiner records seen by TMZ and Entertainment Weekly. According to the records, Morgan died in a bathroom in Los Angeles. An LAPD spokesperson told TMZ that the death appears to be a result of natural causes.
Morgan was born in Bisbee, Arizona, and began his acting career in entertainment by starring in the 1991 TV series, Midnight Caller. Following that, he appeared in the 1992 TV movie, The Last of His Tribe. Besides the Scream movies, Morgan has also appeared in the film Metro and the TV show Nash Bridges as himself. In addition to his film and television work, he also lent his voice to the 1997 video game, The Last Express.
While his appearances were brief, his character, Hank Loomis, holds great importance to Scream fans. In the original film, it is revealed that Hank had an affair with Sidney Prescott's mother, which eventually led to his son, Billy, becoming Ghostface.
Morgan's daughter, Renata Macfie, paid tribute to the actor on Facebook. "I'm never going to have the right words for this post. Losing you has left the biggest hole in my heart. I will carry on our Mulholland drives and our Starbucks outings. I'm grateful and lucky to have had you as my daddy. My Guck. Rest easy, bubby. Life will never be the same without you and your poorly timed jokes that I inherited from you. Love you endlessly (no more fighting about that anymore, I win)."

The line outside St. Patrick's Cathedral, where Daddy lay in state, was a mile long. One hundred thousand mourners passed by his coffin. Family and friends took turns holding vigil. The first time I witnessed that public outpouring of grief was when I accompanied Mum, along with my siblings, to a special service the night before the funeral. Mum's face, swathed in a black veil, was composed, almost serene, as we knelt to pray. The singer Andy Williams, a close friend of Mum and Daddy, sang "Ave Maria" a cappella, his resonant tenor echoing through the cathedral. I was thinking that Mary and all her angels were in the very room with us. Mum, Grandma Rose, and our aunts told us that Daddy was in Heaven and happy to be with Uncle Jack, his eldest brother, Joe, and his sister Kick. I could picture that lovely reunion. I was eight years old, and as a child had such a strong sense of Heaven as a physical place that when I flew in an airplane I chose the window seat so I could try to find Heaven in the clouds. Mum also believed Heaven was real, and she felt the full presence of God when she prayed. Her faith kept her going. It lifted us all through those awful days.

In her memoir, "Ethel Kennedy: The Extraordinary Life and Bold Legacy" (to be published Oct. 13 by HarperOne), daughter Kerry Kennedy writes of her mother's inspiring example, from before and after the murder of her father.

The line outside St. Patrick's Cathedral, where Daddy lay in state, was a mile long. One hundred thousand mourners passed by his coffin. Family and friends took turns holding vigil. The first time I witnessed that public outpouring of grief was when I accompanied Mum, along with my siblings, to a special service the night before the funeral. Mum's face, swathed in a black veil, was composed, almost serene, as we knelt to pray. The singer Andy Williams, a close friend of Mum and Daddy, sang "Ave Maria" a cappella, his resonant tenor echoing through the cathedral. I was thinking that Mary and all her angels were in the very room with us. Mum, Grandma Rose, and our aunts told us that Daddy was in Heaven and happy to be with Uncle Jack, his eldest brother, Joe, and his sister Kick. I could picture that lovely reunion. I was eight years old, and as a child had such a strong sense of Heaven as a physical place that when I flew in an airplane I chose the window seat so I could try to find Heaven in the clouds. Mum also believed Heaven was real, and she felt the full presence of God when she prayed. Her faith kept her going. It lifted us all through those awful days.
