Video shows OceanGate CEO's wife react after sound now thought to have been Titan sub implosion
Video footage released this week of Wendy Rush — the wife of OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, who perished in the 2023 Titan sub implosion — features a noise "later correlated with the loss of communications and tracking," that is now thought to have been the noise of the craft's implosion reaching the ocean surface, a U.S. Coast Guard spokesperson said in an email to Fox News Digital, echoing the description posted with the video on dvidshub.net.
In the video, after the sound is heard, Wendy Rush seems to ask what it was, apparently still unaware of the tragedy.
The video was released Thursday as part of the USCG's ongoing Marine Board of Investigation into the incident, the USCG spokesperson noted.

Stockton Rush and the four other individuals aboard the sub all perished on a trip that had been meant to visit the wreck of the Titanic, something it had done multiple times in the past.
"Delamination at dive 80 was the beginning of the end," USCG Lieutenant Commander Katie Williams, noted, according to the Bbc. "And everyone that stepped onboard the Titan after dive 80 was risking their life."

Titan submersible items that survived the implosion
(NewsNation) — When the Titan submersible imploded, no survivors were found. Now, nearly two years later, the U.S. Coast Guard has revealed that they found items that survived the implosion. Officials found a still-intact ink pen and other items while going through the remains of the Titan submersible. In a TikTok video shared by Discovery, a member of the Coast Guard talked about the recovery process and revealed how the pen was found. The pen allegedly belonged to OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush. Investigators also found business cards, Titanic-themed stickers, remnants of clothing and human remains. All of those items have been cataloged by the Coast Guard's Marine Board of Investigation. The Coast Guard official in the video explained, 'Items that were inside of the Titan at the time now become encased inside of the endcap.' After the submersible was drained of all its water, officials were able to go through its 'sludge-like' remains of carbon fiber, fiberglass and electronic parts. This is where they found part of Rush's suit still intact. 'We were all just kind of getting all-hands-in and separating what needed to be considered as human remains and what was just other wreckage pieces. As we were pulling it apart, that is how we realized it was Mr. Rush's clothing,' the Coast Guard official said. The Titan pilot's clothing was allegedly found caked in sand. This is where they found the ink pen and other items. 'Inside of that sleeve … it was the ink pen, business cards and stickers for the Titanic, and there was nothing else but that,' the official said in the video. In February 2025, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) released an audio recording of what it believes was the moment the submersible imploded. According to NOAA, the sound came from a moored passive acoustic recorder around 900 miles from the implosion site. The sound of static can be heard in the 23-second recording, followed by a boom, then more static. The Titan had lost contact after an hour and 45 minutes, with officials spending four days searching for the submersible — that is, until evidence was found on the ocean floor of the implosion. Along with Rush, four other people were killed on the Titan: Paul-Henri Nargeolet, Hamish Harding, Shahzada Dawood and his son, Suleman Dawood. OceanGate stopped operations after the implosion. An investigation by Wired showed that Rush had allegedly overstated the timeline for the project and lied about issues with the hull of the vessel. The OceanGate Titan submersible was made of carbon fiber and titanium. It was supposed to take paying customers down to the wreckage of the Titanic, which is over 12,000 feet underneath the water's surface. The implosion killed all five people on board in June 2023. Rush was one of the driving forces behind creating the OceanGate Titan and using it for tourism purposes. The debris is still being examined by the Marine Board of Investigation.

Kate Winslet Covered Daughter Mia's Eyes During Titanic Sex Scene
's daughter, Mia Threapleton, has made a surprising confession: she has never watched Titanic in its entirety. The 24-year-old actress, who is following in her Oscar-winning mother's footsteps, revealed the secret reason why she couldn't finish the epic romance that catapulted Winslet to stardom. In a recent candid interview with Defined, Kate Winslet's daughter Mia Threapleton revealed that she has never watched Titanic from start to finish. Threapleton shared that her mother covered her 'eyes' during the car's intimate scene between Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. Threapleton recalled, 'I remember the car scene happening and these hands appeared from behind my head and covered up my eyes.' She joked, 'I was like, 'I can still hear everything.'' The actress shared that Winslet 'does not like watching herself.' 'I don't remember why it was on. My mother would never optionally put that film on. She does not like watching herself. And I totally understand why,' Threapleton gushed. While following Winslet's legacy, Mia Threapleton has already acted alongside her mother in multiple projects. She starred alongside her mother in the powerful Channel 4 drama I Am Ruth, part of Dominic Savage's I Am series. The mother-daughter duo portrayed a struggling single parent and her withdrawn teenage daughter. Threapleton revealed the process was 'intense,' and she did not really discuss the work with her celebrity mother. She noted, 'The whole process itself was very intense, but we didn't actually ever speak about what we were doing.' After the success of I Am Ruth, which won the Best Single Drama BAFTA award, Threapleton went on to act in Wes Anderson's film, The Phoenician Scheme. Threapleton's co-stars include Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Benedict Cumberbatch, Scarlett Johansson, and more. Reflecting on the experience, Threapleton said, 'It was mind-blowing.' Acting alongside an acclaimed star cast felt like a 'dream,' she added. 'I feel so unbelievably lucky to have had the opportunity that I have to have done this job with Wes.' The Phoenician Scheme premiered at the 2025 Cannes on May 18, 2025. The film got its theatrical release in the United States on May 30.

What Investigators Found Inside Titan Submersible Wreckage After Explosion
It has been nearly two years since OceanGate Expeditions' Titan tourist submersible imploded, and new details about the tragedy continue to emerge. On June 18, 2023, a submersible trekking toward the bottom of the ocean to view the wreckage of the Titanic imploded approximately 90 minutes into the trip. All five people onboard—including OceanGate's CEO Stockton Rush, Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet, British businessman/adventurer Hamish Harding, Pakistani businessman/philanthropist Shahzada Dawood, and Dawood's 19-year-old son Suleman—died in the accident. Now, as E! News shared on Thursday, we're getting even more information about the tragedy via a new Discovery documentary, Implosion: The Titanic Sub Disaster, which premiered earlier this week. One of the many fascinating details revealed include what items actually survived the implosion intact—including Rush's clothing. 'It was actually caked inside of sand,' U.S. Coast Guard investigator Lt. Kelly Steele says in the documentary. 'It was the piece of his sleeve that had survived. No, not the whole suit. And inside of the sleeve of it was [an] ink pen, business cards and stickers for the Titanic.' Sadly, those were the only items investigators found. 'There was nothing else but that,' said Kelly, though he seemed to marvel at the fact that 'Each one of those pieces, even the pen, was still intact. It hadn't been broken. All of this debris, all of these things shattered, but his pen was still intact.' Implosion: The Titanic Sub Disaster, directed by Pamela Gordon, is a recounting of the doomed journey, its aftermath, and the details investigators and others are still learning. The 90-minute documentary is streaming now on Discovery+ and HBO Max. What Investigators Found Inside Titan Submersible Wreckage After Explosion first appeared on Men's Journal on May 30, 2025
