The Prince and Princess of Wales thrilled fans by sharing a candid snapshot to celebrate William’s 42nd birthday. 

The heartwarming image captured William joyfully leaping off a sand dune, hand-in-hand with their three children, George, Charlotte, and Louis. Accompanied by a personal caption that read, “Happy birthday Papa, we all love you so much!”, the carefree photo quickly went viral. 

Many noted its contrast to the more formal images typically released, with one royal expert suggesting that William and Kate selected the playful picture to convey a subtle message about their family and their future.

“The last few months have been a test of their strong partnership,” Jennie Bond revealed to OK! magazine, adding, “I think this photograph tells us that they are still able to jump for joy, even in the toughest of times, and that Kate has deliberately chosen a picture that speaks of their optimism for the future.

“She adores William – he is her rock and has supported her so selflessly through all of this and has taken flak from members of the public for not doing more and for devoting himself to her. So she adores her man. I think their marriage is stronger than ever.”

Jenni further noted: “These past few months have been probably the most testing time in the whole of their marriage and must have shaken them to the core. 

“To think about the future must have been incredibly unsettling, but I think that picture has been deliberately chosen to show that they are now all in a frame of mind whereby they can look to the future with positivity.”

Prince William decided to temporarily step back from his royal duties to prioritise his children and support his wife following her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.

According to royal expert Jennie Bond, this decision has likely strengthened the bond between William and Kate.

Jamie Foxx and Alyce Huckstepp enjoyed a cozy night out in Los Angeles, where they were spotted holding hands while leaving the popular celebrity hotspot, Catch Steak, on Saturday, September 28. 

The actor and musician donned an all-black outfit featuring a hoodie and matching pants, exuding a casual yet stylish vibe.

Alyce complemented her boyfriend’s look with her own chic dark attire, which included a long-sleeved shirt with white stripes and matching pants. 

Both stars accessorized with sunglasses as they made their way out of the bustling California restaurant known for its star-studded clientele.

This outing follows their earlier casual date night on September 23, where the couple was seen leaving the upscale restaurant Nobu in Malibu. 

Just days before their romantic dinner at Catch Steak, Jamie Foxx and Alyce Huckstepp celebrated a significant family milestone: the wedding of Foxx’s eldest daughter, Corinne Foxx, to her longtime partner, Joe Hooten. 

The lavish ceremony, attended by Foxx, Huckstepp, and family friends—including Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Garcelle Beauvais.

Jamie and Alyce have been together for over a year, with a source confirming their relationship to PEOPLE in August 2023 after they were spotted together at the same Nobu location in Malibu. 

An insider praised Huckstepp, stating she “couldn’t be nicer or more perfect” for the actor. 

Prince Harry’s recent decision regarding the Sussexes’ partnership with Netflix has reportedly left some sources feeling disappointed. 

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex entered into a lucrative contract with the streaming platform in 2020 after stepping down from their roles as working royals. Despite this agreement, the couple is pursuing separate projects for Netflix.

Their inaugural series, Harry & Meghan, was a tremendous success, breaking multiple records on the platform. However, it has been more than a year and a half since its release in December 2022, and the couple has yet to produce another collaborative project for Netflix. 

Harry did release Heart of the Invictus in 2023, but it did not achieve the same level of success as their initial docuseries.

Currently, the Duke of Sussex is working on a solo project titled Polo. However, sources indicate that Harry will not play a significant role in the program, which will instead focus on his close friend, polo player Nacho Figueras.

A source told the Mail: “Any reasonable person tuning into a show about polo made by Prince Harry would expect Harry to take a starring role.

“That he’s not is hugely disappointing for Netflix. Let’s face it, polo isn’t exactly a mainstream sport so the attraction would have been watching Harry. Without him, it’s marginal at best.

“The Netflix deal expires next year, so the Sussexes need a big hit. This sounds like a big nothing burger.”

Another insider said: “For a show about a sport of kings, polo barely features any royalty. It’s not the Harry show, it’s the Nacho show.”

While a third source is quoted as saying: “Nice of Harry to do his mate a favour.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s contract with Netflix is set to expire in 2025.

Reports suggest that the couple is on a crucial deadline to impress executives at the streaming giant, as their contract may not be renewed unless they can deliver another project that matches the success of their debut series, Harry & Meghan.

Zac Affleck and his wife, Jennifer Lyne Affleck, have reportedly lied when they claimed to be related to Ben Affleck.

A source close to the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives stars told People recently that the couple hasn’t any relationship with Ben, 52, who is currently embroiled in a divorce case with estranged wife Jennifer Lopez.

“Absolutely not true,” the insider dismissed the family connection. “There’s no relationship. I Just don’t think that’s very fair about that either.”

The tipster further supported its own claim by shedding light on the family tree. “So, Zac Affleck is her husband. [His father] is David Affleck. Zac’s grandfather is Gordon Affleck. Zac’s great-grandparents — which would [establish] second cousins — his name is Alan Burt Affleck.”

“Then Ben’s dad is Tim Affleck. His grandfather is Myron Junior. His great-grandparent is Myron Senior. No, Alan Burt and Myron Senior aren’t brothers or anything,” they explained.

For the unversed, earlier in an interview with the outlet, the 25-year-old actress appeared and revealed her husband’s relationship with the Daredevil star.

“People are very curious and wondering how we’re related, and it’s so funny. He’s my husband’s cousin, but we’ve never met him,” she says of Ben.
