A year after tragedy, mommy blogger breaks her silence. See the cryptic post
Almost a year after moving to South Florida after immense family tragedy, Candice Miller re-emerged on Instagram.
Last July, the socialite's husband, real estate tycoon Brandon Miller, died after being found unconscious in the garage of the family's Hamptons mansion. The 43-year-old's death was later ruled a suicide, due to overwhelming debt, according to The New York Times.
The so called mommy blogger, whose lifestyle page Mama & Tata boasted roughly 100,000 followers at the time, quickly deleted the account.
Miller has kept a low profile since selling their home for $12.8 million, auctioning off its items and rebuilding her life down south with her two daughters. According to Realtor.com, they live in an apartment in Miami Beach owned by a pal, Alexander von Furstenberg, designer Diane von Furstenberg's son.
But now the 42-year-old influencer seems ready to embrace a new chapter. Monday's post on her public personal page shows a picture of a sunrise over the ocean in an unknown location.
''In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer,'' said the caption, quoting a 1950 essay 'Return to Tipasa.' by French philosopher Albert Camus. 'And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there's something stronger — something better, pushing right back.'
It's unclear if Miller will resume Mama & Tata, or start a completely different project. The original website, with content about lavish vacations, luxury beauty treatments and five-star meals, says it's expired.

I accidentally kept a tampon in for a month — what happened
Talk about opening Pandora's box. One reality TV star is holding herself up as a cautionary tale after she accidentally forgot she'd used a tampon — and walked around for a month with it still inside her. Savannah Miller, who appeared on season 7 of Netflix's The Circle, discussed the 'truly humbling experience' with The Post, from the symptoms it set off to how doctors finally figured it out. Advertisement And though she confessed it was 'actually traumatizing,' she's lucky it didn't turn into a deadly infection that can be caused by wearing tampons for too long. 6 Savannah Miller, 24, has detailed the time she forgot she'd used a tampon and left it inside herself for a month. Instagram/savannahcmiller Now 24, Miller was a 22-year-old college student when, at the tail end of her period, she went out to a bar with friends. Wanting to avoid any 'spillage,' she used a tampon — but by the next day, it was gone. 'I forgot I put it in, and because there was no blood and the string had disappeared, I didn't see it,' she said. Advertisement Within a few days, though, she started experiencing symptoms, including a general sick feeling, itchiness and a bad smell. 'It smelled like a rat crawled inside of me while I was sleeping and died,' she admitted, adding that she was self-conscious about it in every class. Guessing that it was an 'old period' smell, she kept using new tampons, likely pushing the original one up even further into her vagina. (Hidden) string of bad luck Advertisement Miller went to the on-campus clinic several times, but initial examinations found nothing wrong. They ran STD tests, which all came back normal. 6 Miller, who appeared on season 7 of Netflix's The Circle, discussed the 'truly humbling experience' with The Post.

Advertisement Finally, at her third doctor's appointment, they noted that she had some cotton particles in her urine sample and asked whether it was possible she had a tampon inside her. 'I didn't think so, but I was like, possibly?!' she recalled. 'But I was desperate to make the smell go away.' They did end up finding the tampon, which she quipped was 'so far up in my cervix there was not shot I was gonna see it.' 'The doctor had to fish it out of my ovaries,' she joked. 6 Using a tampon for too long can lead to toxic shock syndrome, a rare but deadly infection. Ocskay Bence – A very close call Though she fortunately had no symptoms of toxic shock syndrome, a dangerous bacterial infection, she was put on antibiotics just in case. In toxic shock syndrome (TSS), bacteria produce toxins that enter the bloodstream, which can cause extreme complications like organ failure and even death. Advertisement It's quite rare, affecting 1 in 100,000 people, but became associated with tampon use in the '90s. Tampon packaging now comes with warnings about TSS, with advice to change tampons every eight hours. Model Lauren Wasser became well-known for having suffered TSS in 2012, costing her both of her legs to amputation. Meanwhile, one mother nearly lost two of her daughters to tampon-induced TSS, and others who've recovered are still battling the health effects. 6 Savannah went viral on TikTok telling her story — with some very appropriate Taylor Swift audio. Titkok/savannahcmiller 6 'I hope this isn't embarrassing but if it helps someone then I'm glad!' she said. Tiktok/savannahcmiller Symptoms of toxic shock syndrome include: Advertisement High fever Headache and chills Coughing, sore throat and muscle aches Diarrhea Nausea and vomiting Dizziness and/or fainting Difficulty breathing Low blood pressure A sunburn-like rash Redness in the eyes, lips and tongue Confusion Seizures 6 Courtesy of Netflix. © 2024 Lesson learned A couple of years later, Savannah has a sense of humor about the ordeal, even going viral on TikTok for telling her story — with some very appropriate Taylor Swift audio. 'Too toxic for toxic shock syndrome I guess,' she captioned the clip. Advertisement And even if it's a touchy subject, she's hoping that sharing what happened to her will be a reminder to others to be vigilant about period care. 'I hope this isn't embarrassing but if it helps someone then I'm glad!' she said.

‘With Love, Meghan' Season 2 trailer drops on heels of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's humiliating Netflix deal
Meghan Markle released the trailer for Season 2 of 'With Love, Meghan' just a day after Page Six exclusively revealed the duchess and her husband, Prince Harry, cut a much cheaper deal with Netflix. The royal couple's initial $100 million contract with the streamer was scrapped in July, but the Sussexes re-signed with a follow-up deal that an insider admitted to us was 'not much.' 'It's no risk for Netflix but saves them both reputationally,' the source added. However, Markle appeared unfazed by the financial loss, as she happily promoted her new trailer via Instagram Tuesday, writing, 'The best moments are made to be shared With Love, Meghan returns August 26th on @netflix.' The sneak peek features the Duchess of Sussex, 44, once again inviting celebrity pals into a rental home near her actual house in Montecito, Calif., that serves as the set for her lifestyle show. Chrissy Teigen, a controversial figure whose alleged 'bullying' was exposed in 2022, is among the high profile guests who will appear in the new season. However, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, 39, is well-versed in the lifestyle space herself as she has published cookbooks and released cookware. Podcaster Jay Shetty and his wife, Radhi Devlukia, are other notable names, along with Chef José Andrés, who previously praised Markle and her show. The 'Yes, Chef!' star and the Sussexes have teamed up together in the past, with the royals joining the celebrity chef's philanthropic efforts for the victims of the Los Angeles fires in January. Markle and Andrés, 56, shared an adorable moment in the clip, when the 'Suits' alum reveals that Harry, 40, 'doesn't like lobster,' and the chef jokes in response, 'And you married him?' Markle adds in a voiceover in the trailer, 'I love the idea of spending time together and finding new ways to show people you care.' She then encourages her viewers, 'Let's get creative and learn something new. I love these moments of discovery and beauty, so let's be curious together.' Although Season 1 was met with some backlash from critics, the show also resonated with many fans who took to TikTok to recreate meals with the duchess' signature 'flower sprinkles' and other cute ideas. Netflix announced the Season 2 renewal in March, with Markle writing via Instagram at the time, 'Lettuce romaine calm … or not (!) because I'm so thrilled to share that Season 2 of 'With Love, Meghan' is coming!' This story was featured on a recent episode of , a daily morning show serving up the hottest celebrity headlines, exclusives, and behind-the-scenes buzz.

Mastodon's ex-guitarist blasts former bandmates. ‘They sound absolutely horrible.'
Months have gone by since they parted ways, but tensions haven't thawed between former guitarist/vocalist Brent Hinds and his former Mastodon bandmates. Not even in the slightest (in Hinds's case). In March, the metal band made an unexpected announcement that they would be parting ways with Hinds after 25 years. Details as to what led up to the split have been scarce, but guitarist Bill Kelliher gave a brief statement to Guitar World as to what happened from his perspective. 'Like a marriage, sometimes people grow apart, and they get interested in other things,' Kelliher stated. 'We wish nothing but the best for Brent in chasing his dreams.' Since then, Mastodon has been playing with guitarist Nick Johnston. As time has gone on, Hinds's anger towards his former bandmates has seemed to be growing. A comment Hinds left on the Mastodon subreddit has grabbed a lot of the fandom's attention. The guitarist responded in a long comment in response to a 2012 live video of his performance of a guitar solo for the song 'Crack The Skye. ' Not sure if this was posted yet, but saw this on a post Brent was tagged in. by u/Lippersickendog1 in mastodonband 'My Guitar sounds great, but Troy [Sanders] and prawn [a name for drummer [Brann Dailor] sound absolutely horrible,' Hinds wrote. '..they are way out of key ..embarrassing and they kicked me out of the band for embarrassing them for being who I am ..but what about who they are ?' He went on to write, 'I've never seen anyone in my life look in the mirror more than Troy Sanders. He thinks he's God's gift to anything. I've never met three people that were so full of themselves. It's disgusting.' These sentiments echo what Hinds said on Instagram in June, when he stated, 'I [won't] miss being in a s--- band with horrible humans.'
