A report suggests that Meghan Markle received an apology from her half-brother, who had previously sided with their father, Thomas Markle Sr. He reportedly now understands his father's character and why Markle kept him away from the family. A revelation following the ***** ss of Sussex's recent comments on the serious allegations against him.
The Sun reports that Markle's half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., has asked for her forgiveness after supporting their father, Thomas Markle Sr., who's facing serious allegations at present.
According to the outlet, he said, "I'm so, so sorry. I now know I have been protecting the wrong person for the past nine years." He now calls the man he defended a "monster," claiming he finally sees the clear picture.
"I now know exactly why you don't talk to him any more and why you won't let him meet Harry or his grandchildren. And I'm ashamed that I spent years taking his side when you fell out with him," he further added.
The half-brother further addressed Markle, acknowledging that they aren't close. However, he remembered the time they spent together during her childhood. He revealed that he held her and looked after her when she was a baby. He also asked her to accept his apology and wished her family well.

Nick Wright claims the Kansas City Chiefs played in a way that should have led to them losing against the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Kansas City Chiefs are yet to lose a game still since Patrick Mahomes returned and the season began. On Sunday, they took on the NFL's worst team at the moment, the Los Angeles Chargers, and secured a commanding 22-6 victory to take their record to 5-0.
LA's offensive woes continued and somehow got even worse during this game. Justin Herbert was unable to get anything going, so the Chiefs' mistakes also went unpunished. Giving his two cents on the game in the aftermath, **** yst Nick Wright was quick to point that out.
Kansas City's record may be perfect, but the team itself was quite far away from that against LA. Mahomes threw an interception and Kansas City also missed an extra point, to give some examples. At the NFL level, mistakes like this are usually punished.
Wright gave a full account of everything the Chiefs got wrong before going on to then also diss the Chargers. Considering how poor they have been, it is hard to disagree with his take.

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 overall performance certainly wasn't perfect, but the Green Bay Packers still rolled to a two-score win over the visiting Dallas Cowboys on "Sunday Night Football" from Lambeau Field in Week 6. Brian Schottenheimer's team was well-rested after playing on Thursday night in Week 5 and not lacking motivation after a humbling home defeat in primetime, but the Packers still raced out to a 17-0 lead and ended up leading the game by two scores for most of the night. Matt LaFleur's team has won three straight games and is 4-2 overall, an acceptable record given the ups and downs of the early season.
Three big things from the Packers' win over the Cowboys:
Facing Dak Prescott, Javonte Williams, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens without Micah Parsons, Edgerrin Cooper and Javon Hargrave provided a big test for Jonathan Gannon's defense, and the group passed it with flying colors. The Cowboys managed only 13 points, of which seven came in garbage time, and Gannon continually had Prescott under pressure and making rushed and confused decisions against the blitz or the pre-snap appearance of a blitz. Prescott averaged only 4.8 yards per attempt, and the Packers got a pair of interceptions inside their own 30-yard line and a pair of fourth down stops on pass attempts in the fourth quarter. More and more, the home opener disaster against the Atlanta Falcons is looking like a blip on the radar. The Packers have allowed fewer than 14 points in three straight games since.
The Packers offensive line took several steps forward in games against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Chicago Bears, largely due to the settling of performances at both guard spots. But Sunday night represented a step in the wrong direction and provided evidence that the problems along the offensive line aren't solved quite yet. Jordan Love was under pressure on 45.5 percent of his pass attempts, his highest percentage since Week 1. And the run game accomplished next to nothing, averaging only 2.2 yards per attempt overall and 1.8 yards on runs by Pierre Strong Jr., MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson. The Packers got by because Love was excellent under pressure early, and the defense made enough stops so that the struggles moving the ball in the second half didn't matter. The inconsistency of the offensive line, drops in big spots and untimely penalties still look like the Packers' biggest hurdles.
Rookie kicker Trey Smack calmed fears of any prolonged struggles by making all five of his kicks, including all three field goals. Even on a breezy night inside Lambeau Field, Smack enjoyed a bounce-back performance -- even if only one of his five kicks was from over 40 yards (a 44-yard field goal). More importantly, Smack didn't let last week's issues bleed into a new opportunity. Against the Bears, his three misses cost the Packers seven points. On Sunday night, Smack's five converted kicks created 11 points in a 10-point win.

Matthew Stafford calls out issue causing Rams disappointing season appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Los Angeles Rams are 2-4, and ***** ody would've expected that after all the moves they made during the offseason. Their latest loss came from the Arizona Cardinals in the final moments of the game, and that's how they fell to the Buffalo Bills last week on Monday Night Football.
After their loss to the Cardinals, Stafford shared where he felt things went wrong for them in this one.
"They did a good job executing their plan. Had some success a little bit in the second half and had some opportunities to give ourselves a chance there late and didn't come up with it," Stafford said via Mykell Mathieu on X, formerly Twitter.

Someone has to win the NFC East, right?
That's still true, but no one is currently playing like they want to be in the playoffs.
The Cowboys' 23-13 loss to the Packers on "Sunday Night Football" dropped the division to 0-3 in Week 6, with the Commanders entering as decisive underdogs against the 49ers on Monday night. In Week 5, the results weren't much better.

Duke cornerback Kimari Robinson has publicly apologized for swatting at a female trainer who was tending to one of his teammates. The incident, which was captured on the broadcast and went viral, occurred during the Blue Devils' loss to UNC on Saturday after Duke safety DaShawn Stone went down in a scary moment.
In a statement posted to social media, Robinson apologized for his conduct, saying that he had also apologized to the trainer in private after the game.
"I want to publicly apologize to the member of our training staff for how I acted toward her during Saturday's game. I was completely wrong, and she did not deserve that," Robinson wrote. "Immediately after the game, I apologized to her personally and checked to make sure she was okay."
Robinson added that his outburst stemmed from worry about Stone, who Robinson said "is like family."
"I was scared he might be seriously hurt. But being worried about him does not excuse how I treated her. I should have controlled my emotions, and I didn't," Robinson continued. "I'm truly sorry for my actions and for letting her, myself and our program down. I have to be better than that."

The Los Angeles Rams gave away replica Super Bowl Championship rings ahead of their game against the Arizona Cardinals on Oct. 18.
The giveaway was meant to honor the five-year anniversary of the 2021 Super Bowl championship season, but the fake rings may have been symbolic of Sunday's game – given away by a team that was considered Super Bowl favorites before the start of the season.
The Rams fell to 2-4 on the season, with two of those losses coming in the span of the last seven days. Coach Sean McVay and the Rams dropped an NFC West game 18-16 Sunday after the Cardinals made a field goal as time expired.
While the Rams aren't deserving of the status as Super Bowl favorites anymore, the team proved that it could still hang around with a championship-quality team such as the Buffalo Bills. Los Angeles lost a close game to start the week against the Buffalo Bills, 37-34, in overtime on Monday Night Football.
Here's where things are going wrong for the Rams after the first six games:

Duke football defensive back Kimari Robinson apologized after he received backlash for swiping at a team trainer trying to attend to an injured player.
During Duke's rivalry game against North Carolina on Saturday, Oct. 17, Dashawn Stone was injured in what looked like a serious injury, and Robinson went to check in on his teammate.
However, when a trainer came on the field to help, Robinson swiped his arm at the staffer, who looked to be shaken by it as she tried to attend to Stone.
The moment went viral on social media with Robinson receiving backlash for his actions.
"I want to publicly apologize to the member of our training staff for how I acted toward her during Saturday's game," Robinson posted on social media on Sunday, Oct. 18. "I was completely wrong, and she did not deserve that. I apologized to her personally and checked to make sure she was okay. The injured player on the ground, DaShawn Stone, is like family to me, and I was scared he might be seriously hurt. But being worried about him does not excuse how I treated her. I should have controlled my emotions, and I didn't.

Meghan Markle is reportedly facing fresh tensions with her US team after a promotional image for her As Ever brand drew criticism over its cooking setup. The reported fallout comes as the ******* ss of Sussex seeks to hire senior British staff. However, an insider claims her history of staff turnover could make it harder for her to attract experienced candidates.
According to sources cited by Naughty But Nice, Meghan Markle has grown frustrated with her US team after critics questioned an As Ever promotional cooking photo. The image appeared to show a gas stove that was switched off, leading critics to question the cooking setup. However, the photo alone does not confirm whether Meghan was actually cooking or whether she used the stove at another time.
An insider claimed Meghan expected her team to catch potential problems before the image reached the public. "She exploded," the source said. "It was, 'How did ******* ody catch this?' Meghan expects her team to protect her from exactly this kind of ridicule." However, her reaction may be making it harder for her to hire new staff. "She blames the American team when things go wrong, while prospective British employees are watching," the source explains. "Nobody wants to become the next person blamed — or the next departure that makes headlines."
Meghan is reportedly looking to strengthen her team in the UK, including by hiring an executive ******* istant. However, the insider claims that attracting experienced British candidates has become difficult because of the attention surrounding staff departures over the years. The source argued that a prestigious ******* le and the opportunity to work closely with Meghan may not be enough to convince top candidates to accept a role.
"Meghan can offer a glamorous ******* le, but the best people aren't biting," the insider told Naughty But Nice. "Her reputation gets there before the job offer does." The source added that prospective employees may wonder whether they would have a different experience from previous staff members. "People see the turnover and think, 'Why would it be different for me?'" the insider claimed.

One of Andrew Tate's accusers says he convinced her to move to Romania by telling her she would be able to decide whether she participated in webcam work. According to newly public extradition materials, she says that choice disappeared after she arrived.
The woman alleges that she began working 12-hour shifts while Tate, his brother Tristan Tate and others controlled conversations with paying customers and accepted money for ***** ual acts she says she had never agreed to perform. TMZ reported the specific allegations from court documents filed as Britain seeks to extradite the brothers from the United States.
She says she had set explicit boundaries around what she would and would not do but was pressured into acts outside those limits, including one degrading act involving a bed fixture that allegedly continued for about an hour. The woman described her overall experience as feeling like "sexual slavery." The allegations have not been proven in court.
U.K. investigators allege the brothers used romantic relationships to draw women to Romania before using financial control, intimidation and violence to exploit them through online ***** ual content. The brothers deny wrongdoing and are fighting extradition from federal custody in Miami.
According to the documents described by TMZ, the woman says Tate persuaded her to relocate to Romania in 2017. The woman says she that Tate, Tristan and other people involved in the operation controlled communications with customers.

Rosie O'Donnell has issued a public apology to Wynonna Judd for "assuming" she was a supporter of U.S. President Donald Trump.
In an interview for The Tangle podcast in August, the comedian - a fierce critic of the American leader - stated that the country singer was one of the only fans of Trump in her life.
"Now, I am friends with Wynonna Judd, who I love very much, and I've known her for many, many years," she told host Kyle Ridley at the time. "And she is a supporter of Trump. And somehow, we never bring it up. I give her a grace in a way... And I really love her, and I care about her, and, for some reason, I'm able to put that aside when we interact."
Last week, Judd clarified that she was "an independent" and never discussed her political beliefs during an interview for People, and on Wednesday, O'Donnell apologised to her longtime pal.
"I was wrong to ***** ume Wy was a Trump supporter just because she performed at marlargo (Mar-a-Lago)," the 64-year-old wrote on Instagram, referring to the Palm Beach, Florida resort owned by Trump. "But as she told me she has sung for seven presidents on both sides of the aisle (sic). My apologies here publicly (as I first made them privately) #friendship - she's touring her new album now - go see her SING like no one else on earth."
In addition, a representative for Judd told Entertainment Weekly that the 62-year-old "did not perform for Trump" when she was at Mar-a-Lago for an unrelated event and that the Tell Me Why star has performed for seven U.S. presidents over the course of her career, both Democrats and Republicans.

Michael Douglas, firmly in his smooth silver-fox era, has opened the door into secret compartments of his life. Douglas, 82, has just published an incredibly dishy, wildly entertaining, at times both hilarious and painful new memoir, One ****** uva Ride. It's a tale that spans generations of Hollywood royalty, from his father Kirk's rise to stardom to his own run of classic films as both producer and actor: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), The China Syndrome (1979), Romancing the Stone (1984), Wall Street (1987), Fatal Attraction (1987), Basic Instinct (1992), and Falling Down (1993), to name some of the biggest. Written with Shane Salerno, the book is one of those rare memoirs that both entertains and sheds light on a lost world of Hollywood of glamour and decadence, with lots of ****** and drugs and even some rock & roll.
To discuss all this, Douglas has invited me into his palatial apartment overlooking New York City's Central Park, one of several homes he owns and enjoys. He's a welcoming and gracious host, no servants or ****** istants bustling about. Just Douglas padding around in his socks, still as slim, handsome, and charming as ever. Douglas makes me a coffee, and we sit down in a living room with a view of his two Oscars, an Emmy, and other awards. Between Douglas and his wife Catherine Zeta-Jones, the trophy case is so large it fills up a corner of the massive living room.

Investors aren't exactly short on reasons to worry.
The Shiller cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings (CAPE) ratio, which measures stock prices against 10-year inflation-adjusted earnings, and the Buffett indicator, the ratio of stock prices to GDP, show that the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) is historically expensive. Leadership has been extraordinarily concentrated in megacap tech stocks. Inflation is well above 3%. Long-term Treasury yields are at multidecade highs. And beneath the surface of the major indexes, market breadth has weakened considerably.

Chris Rock has spoken about his approach to helping people financially, saying he isn't opposed to lending a hand when someone needs it. In one particular situation, however, the actor and comedian chose not to help, which has sparked a strong reaction online. While some people criticized Rock for his decision, others defended his reasoning.

Chris Rock sat down with David Marchese for The New York Times series "The Interview," wherein he discussed his new movie "Misty Green." The conversation touched on cancel culture and forgiveness, and Rock shared a story to make a point.
"When you're Black, white people believe every accusation is a conviction," he said before sharing his story involving Roger Logan, the brother of one of his childhood best friends.
The comedian said Logan was wrongfully convicted of murder, and when his close friend approached him pleading to fund a lawyer to help free his brother, he refused. "I always had, like, a no-lawyer thing because a lawyer is like an open-ended thing," he explained.

A royal expert claimed that Princess Diana loved King Charles until the very end. Moreover, she reportedly believed their relationship might have worked if they had met when they were a little older. The remark came after Charles Spencer released a memoir about Diana containing several bombshell claims, particularly about the monarch.
Princess Diana allegedly thought she met King Charles "at the wrong time." Ingrid Seward, the royal author, recently spoke about her conversations with Diana and her feelings about Charles with The Royal Observer. The comments come after the release of Charles Spencer's new memoir, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. The book covers Diana's life, her marriage to Charles and the events surrounding her death. Spencer makes several claims about the former Prince of Wales, including allegations about his reaction following Diana's death.
Diana's brother mentioned that Charles sounded "giddily elated" during a phone call following Diana's death. He also wrote that the then-Prince of Wales said people would forget Diana "soon enough." Seward shared her thoughts on the matter and questioned whether Diana would approve of the allegations currently being made about Charles. The royal author said, "[The accusations are] the last thing in the world that Diana ever would have wanted, because she loved Charles. She loved him right until the end."
Seward also said that Diana wished they could have gotten back together. The renowned author said that Diana told her that had they met at the right time, when they were a little older, their relationship might have worked.
After their divorce was finalized in 1996, Seward said Diana and Charles were getting along quite well. She added, "There was a moment of togetherness, and Diana actually said to me, 'It's so sad because we could have conquered the world.'" Charles and Diana tied the knot on July 29, 1981, and had two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry. Their formal separation was announced in 1992, and their divorce was finalized four years later in 1996.

The host argued that agency and accountability go hand in hand.
"That is NOT female empowerment," she said. "I'm sorry to break it to you, ladies of America, but you cannot have one without the other. You want full agency? Good. Me too. Guess what? We both have it. You cannot have it without accountability for your own decision-making."

Denise Brown — the sister of the late Nicole Brown Simpson — opened up about the night before Nicole's 1994 murder, revealing that she witnessed O.J. Simpson stalking his ex while the siblings were having dinner together.
"I said all the wrong things to Nicole: 'You've got to leave him. You've got to get out of this situation. What are you doing?'" Denise, 69, told The Guardian on Monday, October 5. "That was not being supportive. I want people to get educated and be supportive, and I want victims to know they're not alone in this situation, and it's not their fault that this is happening to them."
Nicole began dating O.J. when she was just 18 years old, and he was 30. They tied the knot in February 1985, welcoming daughter Sydney that same year. Their son, Justin, was born in 1988. After years of domestic violence allegations, the pair divorced in February 1992.

Tennessee officials are still investigating why death row inmate Christa Pike survived an execution attempt after receiving two doses of pentobarbital, a drug intended to render a person unconscious and ultimately cause death.
While the immediate focus has been on what went wrong inside the execution chamber, experts say Pike's case has also renewed scrutiny of a problem that has been building for more than a decade: how states obtain lethal injection drugs after pharmaceutical companies moved aggressively to keep their products from being used in executions. Despite those efforts, pentobarbital remains the primary execution drug used by many death-penalty states, making questions about sourcing, testing and oversight especially significant.
The issue has reshaped how many states carry out executions, forcing them to change drug protocols, seek alternative suppliers and adopt increasingly secretive procurement practices.

Chris Rock said that his problem with "quote, unquote, wokeness" is that it leads to a world that is, in his opinion, less forgiving than it needs to be.
The comedian and "Misty Green" filmmaker stopped by the New York Times' "The Interview" series this weekend and said that while advocating for marginalized communities is great, it needs to come with forgiveness, a huge theme in his new film starring Rosalind Eleazar.
When asked by host David Marchese about the throughline forgiveness has in the film, Rock said that "you don't really realize if you love somebody until you have to forgive them," adding that somebody letting you down or betraying you, but still choosing to be around them, is what true love is.

"I have a friend that's going to be nameless that might have gotten canceled," Rock said. "Another friend of mine was like, 'How can you be friends with that person?' I was like, 'If you're only friends with your friends when they're good, they're not your friends.' If you've got a bunch of people that are only going to be there when you're good, you have no friends. That doesn't mean condoning abusive behavior; you can reprimand your friends. That's also part of friendship."
When pressed by Marchese, who said that everyone has to have a line at some point, the comedian held his ground.
"I'm a Christian, and God forgives," he said. "The problem with quote, unquote, wokeness — and don't get me wrong, it is great that marginalized people have a voice; it is great to advocate for anybody that feels marginalized — but the problem is we're in the Old Testament right now, and the Old Testament has no forgiveness. The Old Testament didn't work, so they had to write a remix called the New Testament."

Christy Carlson Romano is ready for the next chapter of her life, but at one point, her story was nearly cut short.
The Emmy-nominated actress and former Disney Channel star, who pulls back the curtain in her debut memoir "Once Upon a Trainwreck: The Fall and Rise of a Child Star," was dealt a harrowing scare last year after she was accidentally shot in the face.
In February 2025, Romano was shooting clay pigeons in Texas with her husband, Brendan Rooney, for his birthday when someone from the couple's party "unsafely fired in the wrong direction," hitting her in the face, she shared on social media at the time.
The "Even Stevens" alum, then 40, was rushed to the hospital, where she learned that she'd been shot in five places, including a fragment of bird shot getting lodged behind her right eye.
"It's taught me that life goes by in a flash, and not just the flash of a shotgun, but the flash of time," Romano tells USA TODAY ahead of the book's Oct. 6 release. "One of the things that unpacking my life did for me was really showcase just how fast it's gone and how fast it will continue to go."

Kanye West's long-running feud with Taylor Swift isn't over yet, says a source, who claims the rapper is now hoping to recruit Blake Lively to get revenge on the singer.
"He genuinely believes that Blake's going to see this as an opportunity that's too good to pass up," spills the source. "It's not as though he can just call her up — she has layers of people that you need to get through before you can talk to her — so he's been hitting up everyone in her orbit to try and get in touch."
Swift, 36, and West's bad blood dates back to 2009, when he crashed her acceptance speech at the MTV VMAs, apologized for it and then later took his mea culpa back.
While the two eventually put their differences aside, the drama picked back up in 2016 after he released the song "Famous" — featuring controversial lyrics about Swift — and its corresponding, equally provocative video.
The "Gold Digger" hitmaker, 49, "is convinced that Taylor is the real reason he's an outcast in America," spills Star's source. "He blames her for everything that's gone wrong with his career, so the more success she has, the more bitter and angry he gets."

Georgia showed off her modellesque legs
The all-black number featured a scoop neckline and ruffled thigh-split skirt, perfectly accentuating the doting mother's sky-high legs, on the ends of which were a pair of black pointed-toe stilettos.
"gigistudios in Paris," Georgia penned in the caption. When it came to her glam for the evening, the blonde bombshell didn't put a foot wrong.
