Candice Bergen's husband Marshall Rose dead at 88
Candice Bergen's husband, Marshall Rose, has died aged 88 after a battle with Parkinson's disease.
An online obituary for the New York real estate executive and philanthropist shared that he "died peacefully at home" in the early hours of 15 February, surrounded by loved ones.
"After many years of extraordinary strength and resilience, he passed from complications with Parkinson's disease," the obituary read. "He is survived by his wife Candice; his children Wendi and Andrew; his step-daughter Chloe; and his grandchildren Alexander, Clio, Ell, Milo, Arthur and Alice. He is predeceased by his parents Jack and Jean, his brother Robert, and his late wife Jill."
A funeral for Rose is set to take place on 18 February. In lieu of flowers, the obituary asked for donations to the New York Public Library, an institution that Rose "loved so dearly".
Bergen tied the knot with longtime boyfriend Rose in 2000, the same year that her film Miss Congeniality was released.
She was previously married to filmmaker Louis Malle from 1980 until his death in 1995.
Bergen has won five Primetime Emmy Awards and two Golden Globe Awards for her portrayal of the title character on the CBS sitcom Murphy Brown. She is also known for her role as magazine editor Enid on Sex and the City and its spinoff, And Just Like That.

Pickleball, punchlines, and personal growth: ‘Hacks' stars Megan Stalter and Paul W. Downs on their bond and what's next
When Megan Stalter and Paul W. Downs stepped onto a pickleball court for a recent Gold Derby interview it was a full-circle callback to a fan-favorite scene from Max's critically acclaimed comedy Hacks. In the Season 3 episode, their characters — eccentric talent agents Kayla and Jimmy — hilariously face off against a TV network president played by Helen Hunt in a match that became a standout moment for fans. 'We trained, we had a coach,' Downs said, laughing. Stalter chimed in: 'Yes, I loved our classes.' More from GoldDerby 'That feeling of having a first crush': How Zach Cherry and Merritt Wever made their 'Severance' marriage feel real Brandon Scott Jones on CBS' 'Ghosts': 'I enjoy playing characters that are desperate' Critics hail Celine Song's 'Materialists' as an 'exquisitely made' modern love story - not a 'glossy romantic comedy' The blend of sharp comedy and heartfelt connection has propelled Hacks through four acclaimed seasons, with a fifth officially confirmed. The series follows Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), a legendary comedian, who partners with Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), a young, edgy writer, to revitalize her act. Created by Downs, Lucia Aniello, and Jen Statsky, Hacks has garnered widespread acclaim for its witty writing, emotional depth, and standout performances including 48 Emmy nominations and 9 wins. For Downs, who also serves as co-creator, writer, and director, he says the recognition means a lot to him and the entire cast and crew. 'I think it was really special last season, having the series win, because our show is made by so many people. To share that with everybody was so gratifying, whether it's our cinematographer or a costume designer or a production designer, everybody that makes the show really cares about the show, watches the show and loves the show. For them to feel like they were part of what was recognized by people, it's incredibly gratifying,' he says. While Hacks delivers sharp humor, it consistently engages with deeper themes. 'We feel like a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down,' Downs explained. 'Every season does explore something.' Season 4, for example, delves into the changing landscape of television, focusing on Deborah Vance's pursuit of a late-night talk show. Downs adds that the series also centers around characters who don't always fit in. 'I think for Jimmy and Kayla for example, they're outsiders just as much as Deborah and Ava are in the first season. They don't really fit in at Latitude, at this management company. So they leave and strike out on their own to start up their own thing. And Deborah and Ava are both two people who are kind of ostracized to the desert. So the show's really about people who are on the outside and are striving for dignity and doing that through the connection that they have, which is their work, whether that be writing comedy or representing comedy.' HBO Max Still, no matter how big the theme, the emotional center of the series remains with its characters and their relationships. Stalter, whose breakout turn as the wildly unfiltered Kayla has made her a fan favorite, is especially proud of her character's growth. 'She started off being the assistant who's kind of messing up. I feel like now she's secretly saving the day. She's like a secret genius,' she said. 'Their friendship's grown so much. I think it meant so much to Kayla when Jimmy steps in and chooses her, and that's all she's really wanted.' Downs echoed the sentiment. 'They both really care about doing a good job, I think, for each other in a lot of ways,' he said. 'And I love that Kayla is such a free character, which is a lot like Meg. Meg is such a fearless actor and so free.' That admiration carries into their viewing habits, too. 'I'm in a scene, I'm running over to laugh at the scene we just did,' Stalter said. 'I don't have any shame about it. It's so funny. He is so funny. Why wouldn't I want to see it twice?' As they look ahead to Season 5, the closeness among the cast and crew remains central — a bond strengthened through shared hardships, including COVID, the L.A. fires and Jean Smart's heart attack in 2023. 'We've gone through a lot as a cast and a crew. We've definitely gotten closer,' Downs said. Though Hacks has no shortage of Emmys, the cast is just as thrilled by fan responses. 'I've seen so many TikTok edits,' Stalter said. 'I'm tearing up at the fan edits of Deborah and Ava. I'm like, the show is so good. I am crying over the TikTok video.' When it comes to who might win a real-life Hacks cast pickleball tournament, Downs has a few ideas. 'I bet Hannah [Einbinder] would be good. She is very athletic. She was a cheerleader," he said. Stalter chimed in, 'I could see Jean [Smart] being good too. I feel like I'd get intimidated on the court playing against her.' Still, Downs had one final pick: 'Christopher McDonald — he's a great golfer and he plays tennis, too. I bet he'd be really good.'

Brandon Scott Jones on CBS' ‘Ghosts': ‘I enjoy playing characters that are desperate'
Surprise! CBS' Ghosts is quite a revolutionary endeavor, especially for a sitcom on a broadcast network. A big part of that is thanks to costar Brandon Scott Jones, who plays the ephemeral, late Isaac Higgintoot — a soldier who fought on the side of the American Continental Congress in the Revolutionary War. Now, Isaac wasn't a big fan of war — he preferred surrendering post-battle — and actually met his end not by a barrage of buckshot, but due to dysentery. Still, Isaac isn't only revolutionary thanks to his character: He's possibly one of the first American military men to adhere to the "don't ask, don't tell" policy of being gay in the U.S. armed forces. More from GoldDerby Critics hail Celine Song's 'Materialists' as an 'exquisitely made' modern love story - not a 'glossy romantic comedy' Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro reunite, tease 'Meet the Parents 4' 'Heartwarming' yet 'bloated': Film critics are mixed on 'How to Train Your Dragon' live-action remake "In his brain he was so jazzed to be at the beginning of America, and he's not even realizing that some of the stuff he's doing is working against who he is as a person," Jones tells Gold Derby (watch the full interview above). "There's something subversive about that." Like the other ghosts who populate the New York manor in the series (which was recently renewed for a fifth and sixth season) Isaac has some issues to work through before he can finish the death process. But he has a habit of getting in his own way — like when at the end of Season 3 he left the dear, departed redcoat he loved, Nigel (John Hartman), at the altar. "I enjoy playing characters that are desperate, and he is a desperate man who wants to be liked, he wants to be remembered, he wants all these things, and he's trapped in this world where he has to live with his legacy," says Jones. But, he adds, "I think there's something fun about him wanting to be a better person. He's a very slow learner, but he's realizing that he has to make some adjustments and changes." That meant in Season 4 that he literally was in his lowest place – dragged under the dirt by ghostly Puritan Patience (Mary Holland). "He's slowly finding little moments and opportunities to be a good person," explains Jones. "And then he has all these trials and tribulations where he, like, freaks out because the stripper he's in love with dies on the property." The stripper, for context, is not Nigel! SEEDanielle Pinnock on playing Alberta in CBS' 'Ghosts,' representation, and what's next for the hit comedy There are other ways Ghosts pushes the envelope in revolutionary ways, particularly with some of its out there colloquialisms. Ghosts who complete their duties on earth and are taken away are said to be "sucked off," something that might not have made it onto broadcast TV in previous decades. The wording gets Jones chuckling. "Can you believe it?" he says. "We get 'jerked off,' we get 'sucked off,' we get 'go down on us,' like, that's the stuff. It's wild what they can get away with! How lucky are we that we get to do it?" But perhaps the thing that Jones finds most original about the series is that thanks to his character and Nigel's, there's finally a bit of American history being shared in a broadly-watched TV series. "What do we as a collective people recognize to be true about that time period?" Jones asks. "Where does the Revolutionary War stand in pop culture and the Zeitgeist? As I've been playing the part, I've slowly been learning more and more [about history], which has been really fun." While Isaac may be Jones' longest-played character, he's far from the Maryland-born actor's first role. Jones performed with the Upright Citizens Brigade and co-wrote and starred in the 2022 film Senior Year. Audiences may also recognize him from his roles in The Good Place and The Other Two, and he's often cast as snooty, snarky, sassy — or all three. "I'm always interested in playing more that side of things," he says. "It's a fun way to access that part of me that … exists. We all have a little clap-back in ourselves, right? You get to have catharsis on camera and get paid for it." Meanwhile, Jones is working on several non-Ghosts projects that he can't talk about just yet — but he does have one new major element of his life he's happy to discuss: He's now a homeowner. And he's stressed out about it. "Oh, my God, I'm so nervous to become an adult," he says. "I still feel like Kevin McAllister [from Home Alone] every time I go to the grocery store? I'm like, 'What am I doing?' … 'God, these plants!'" Just wait until he finds out whether his new home has any ghosts.

George Clooney shows off hair transformation at Tony Awards: 'I had to cut it out'
George Clooney is back to his silver fox self. The "Good Night, and Good Luck" star, who was nominated at the 78th annual Tony Awards on June 8, returned to his signature salt-and-pepper hairdo, as seen by Clooney's red-carpet appearance with wife Amal Clooney. The Oscar-winning actor had previously dyed his hair black for his starring role as CBS journalist Edward R. Murrow in the Broadway play. "I had to cut it all out with a weed whacker to get it all," Clooney told E! News. "That black hair dye, I had to cut it out. You can't color that." Despite the hairy ordeal, Clooney, 64, and Amal made a stylish splash on the Tony Awards carpet. The "ER" alum evoked Hollywood heartthrob vibes in a classic black-and-white tuxedo, while Amal, 47, stunned in a white, off-the-shoulder frock. The actor, who was up for best leading actor in a play for his portrayal of Murrow, joked about the lukewarm reception of his darker hair in an April interview with "CBS Mornings." Need a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle. "It's not my favorite look, and my wife, she thinks it's funny," Clooney said at the time. "Honestly, nothing makes you look older than being 63 and dyeing your hair." Just like the closing night of "Good Night, and Good Luck," which took place the same day as the Tonys, Clooney's brunette era was bound to have its final bow. The actor hinted at his hair transformation in a June 3 interview on "Late Night with Seth Meyers." "We do a matinee, and then by the time we go to the Tonys that night, it'll be gone," Clooney told Meyers. "I may have a shaved head."
