Her Dad Died Before Graduation. So Her Best Friend's Dad Gave Her a Beautiful Surprise (Exclusive)
On a day meant for celebration, Marlice Valentin walked the graduation stage carrying a quiet ache, as her late father wasn't there to see it Her best friend's dad, William, had been quietly listening and knew just how heavy that absence would feel When he handed her a custom sash featuring one of her last photos with her father, the moment became a viral reminder that love sometimes comes from unexpected placesOn a day meant for celebration, a simple act of kindness transformed a bittersweet graduation into a viral moment of healing and hope. When Marlice Valentin received a gift from her best friend's father, William Edwards, she never imagined it would touch the hearts of millions. But it did when William stepped in with a gesture that neither Marlice or her best friend Tanaya saw coming: a sash adorned with a cherished photo of Marlice and her father, capturing one of their final moments together. The presentation was caught on video, but the emotions behind it ran far deeper. 'That was one of the last pictures we ever took,' Marlice shares with PEOPLE. 'It's always been one of my favorites.' The viral TikTok, captioned "bestie so hard that her dad got me a personalized sash of my dad who passed away who couldn't be here with me on my special day," struck a chord online. But for Marlice and Tanaya, the memory it captured was deeply personal. 'I first met Tanaya back in school in our undergrad from a common friend,' Marlice notes. 'We just kind of said, 'Oh, you want to be roommates? Let's move in together.' ' Over time, their friendship only grew stronger. 'Marlice was always the one who stayed,' Tanaya shares. 'So I stayed close to her too.' Graduation marked Marlice's first major milestone without either of her parents present. 'It made me really emotional. Not everyone knows,' she says. 'My mom couldn't come for personal reasons, and I didn't have my dad there.' William noticed. His daughter Tanaya had shared bits and pieces of Marlice's story over time. 'I'd be in another room listening to her friend talk,' William tells PEOPLE. 'And I know certain things about her friends. So after I made a sash for my daughter, I thought — I should make one for her friend, too.' He says the gesture came from a simple place. 'Just for her to have that around her and her father not here … it was for encouragement,' William explains. 'I wanted to encourage my daughter, and to encourage Marlice was a plus.' When he presented the sash, it took Marlice by surprise. 'It made me feel seen. Like, someone thought of me,' she says. 'Also, that photo on the sash was one of my favorite pictures ever. It really hit my heart.' For Tanaya, watching the moment unfold was emotional. 'I broke down a little bit,' she shares. 'I knew how much it meant to her to have that, especially with her mom not being there.' William had the idea after being prompted by ads he saw online. 'The Internet is funny — you think about something, and it starts popping up,' he says. 'So I found a nice picture of my daughter and her mother, and one of Marlice and her father, and added a few words. But honestly, the pictures say it all.' Their friendship was shaped by a quiet understanding: both had felt the ache of losing a parent. That common ground became a thread through the highs and lows of college life. Marlice didn't learn about Tanaya's loss until well into their friendship. 'It kind of came out one day, and I remember thinking — wow,' she shares. What stayed with her was the symmetry in their stories. 'She has her dad, I have my mom,' Marlice says. 'It's like we're different, but still going through the same kind of loss.' Wearing the sash reminded Marlice of how far she'd come — and who she carries with her. 'It hit home. I feel like I miss him more than I did when I was younger,' she says. 'Now I'm doing these big things — graduating, becoming an adult — and he's not here.' Posting the video helped her realize she wasn't alone. 'I'm not the only one who lost someone,' she says. 'It made me feel understood.' She also found family in the Edwards household. 'Tanaya's dad is one of the greatest dads I've ever met,' Marlice shares. 'Just the fact that he saw me as a girl who didn't have her dad, and thought about what I was probably going through — it made me feel so loved.' The video's viral success surprised both girls. 'I didn't expect it to blow up,' Marlice says. 'At first, we had 700 likes. I went to sleep and woke up at 70,000. Now we're over 1 million.' The comments poured in with people relating to their story, praising their friendship and sharing their own losses. 'It showed me the good side of social media,' Marlice says. 'It brought people together.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Tanaya beams with pride when she thinks about her dad's gesture. 'I feel like the luckiest girl ever to have someone like him in my life,' she says. 'He did it out of love — not for the views, just because he cared.' Both young women are now preparing for the next chapter, with Marlice pursuing her master's in mental health counseling, and Tanaya considering a future in social work or probation. But their bond remains unchanged. 'From the first time I invited her to my home — not just our school apartment, but my real home — she was family,' Marlice says. 'She's in the house already. Everybody knows her. We're locked in.' William hopes they carry that love with them as they step into adulthood. 'You girls went through a lot,' he tells them. 'But you made it through. You already know what it is to struggle and now, you know how to overcome it.' Read the original article on People

How tall is Dave Portnoy? Embattled Barstool boss sets record straight at Miami park
The tables are turning. Usually the one doing the trolling, Dave Portnoy – infamous for making inappropriate jokes, thrashing underlings and having absolutely zero filter – is currently catching some major shade. Over what, now? Some personal stats. The controversial Barstool Sports founder was lambasted online over his height, with one X user over the weekend posting pictures of him standing on his tiptoes in selfies with taller people. 'Of all the lies told about me this is the most egregious,' Portnoy responded. 'People are literally photoshopping me standing on my tippy toes now.' X then shared a community note, fact checking that Portnoy had indeed posed this way in previous pictures. On Tuesday morning, Portnoy met up with FOX & Friends coast-to-coast host Steve Doocy for 'The Morning Walk,' to clear up the matter. The pair did a lap around Margaret Pace Park in Miami's Edgewater neighborhood, a few miles south of Portnoy's house. While covering a wide range of topics, including his One Bite pizza reviews and rescue dog Miss Peaches, the chat obviously turned to the topic du jour. 'Well, something that is boiling up on the Internet right now is your height, because they say you're short or something like that,' Doocy said. 'I'm 5'10' and a half,' responded the 48-year-old who looked at least a few inches shorter than the journalist, who estimated he was 'about' six feet tall. But when the two stand back to back, their heads are almost completely aligned. Someone off camera says they're 'even.' 'We're even?' Doocy asked. 'Take that, Internet!' 'All right, then. I'm six feet,' Portnoy boasted. 'Listen, people want to come for the crown. They want to hate on me for different reasons. They come at the height. That's the best they can do. It's a blatant lie.'

Glen Powell's Ex Revealed What Really Happened in His PR Relationship With Sydney Sweeney
In early 2023, when dating rumors were swirling between Anyone But You co-stars Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney, news broke that Powell and his longtime girlfriend Gigi Paris had gone their separate ways. Of course, that only boosted the rumors even more. But what really happened behind the scenes? In a new episode of the Too Much podcast, Paris, who dated Powell from January 2020 to April 2023, opened up about their split. According to her, Powell embraced the dating rumors at the time as a strategic PR move for their rom-com, no matter how strongly his girlfriend pushed against it. More from SheKnows Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom Reportedly Worked Through 'Tension' After Her Latest Career Setbacks 'This is what I have to do for my job,' Powell reportedly told Paris, per Us Weekly. 'I had two options,' she then said. 'I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, 'Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she OK with this? What the f—?' Or stand up for myself and say, 'No, I'm actually not OK with this, and I'm walking away.' So that's what I decided to do.' 'I just wanted respect, especially if it's gonna be public,' Paris said. 'Like, don't make an ass out of me. Like, just don't make a fool out of someone you've been with for over three years, talking about forever with. Just have some decency, you know?' From the looks of it, Powell was just not willing to put their relationship above his acting career. 'At the end of the day, it was like, well, work comes first,' Paris said of the Top Gun: Maverick star. 'And if that's the case, power to you, that's your priority. I gotta walk away. What sucked was how it was handled. I felt like I was just fed to the dogs.' Looking back, Paris admitted that it wouldn't have taken much for her to back off. 'Where are you when you just need to stand up and say, 'No, I would never cheat on my girlfriend. I wouldn't do that.' That's all that needed to be said,' she said. 'And that wasn't said. Never once.' 'It was serving them for their PR,' she said. 'Later on, it turned out that it was all, I don't know if there was a relationship there or not, but then they came out to say it was all a PR scheme at the expense of our relationship. Like, it was just crazy.' Paris also revealed what her last straw was before calling it quits. 'I got a phone call from him right when I was about to go to Australia to work — all this s— was coming out on the Internet – and he called and said, 'The producers and I have discussed that I think it's best that you don't come to visit,'' she remembered. 'And that's when I hung up. And I was like, 'This motherf— is done to me.'' Paris and Powell called it quits in April 2023.
