Kevin Jonas Recalls ‘Losing Almost All' of His Money After the Jonas Brothers Broke Up
Kevin Jonas recently got candid about a topic that's usually taboo: money. While appearing with brothers Joe and Nick on the Wednesday (July 9) episode of School of Greatness, the guitarist opened up about struggling with his finances after the Jonas Brothers went their separate ways in 2013. The band would eventually reunite six years later, but during the siblings' professional time apart, Kevin says he lost money as a result of some 'bad business deals.'

Releases 'Victory Lap' Remix Featuring Denzel Curry 'I've seen it both ways,' the oldest Jo Bro told podcast host Lewis Howes during a discussion on wealth. 'I've seen the beginning of the success, to financial success — not knowing what money really was and understanding it — to not having [it], to losing almost all of it.' When asked whether he'd really lost most of his funds, Kevin clarified, 'most of it, down to the one 10 percent left.' 'About nine years ago, I invested in a bunch of property and doing other things, and I was building at the time,' he added. 'Sadly, it wasn't the right partnership. I've learned a lot of lessons in that. Thankfully … we had a second shot and bite at the apple with the band coming back together.' The Jonas Brothers first started making music together as teenagers, earning fame thanks to their projects with Disney Channel and Billboard 200-topping albums A Little Bit Longer and Lines, Vines and Trying Times. When disagreements over the band's direction and general burnout started to divide the brothers — something they opened up about in their 2019 Billboard cover story — they disbanded around 2013. As Kevin mentioned, a second chance rolled around six years later, when the trio decided to give band life another shot after each pursuing solo projects. Their reunion was an immediate success, with single 'Sucker' becoming their first-ever No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 2019. But before they could get back together, Joe says they each had to figure out how to check their egos at the door. 'There was too much under the rug,' he said on the podcast. 'We had to trust each other more with being like, 'Actually, you are good in this band, you are talented.'' And despite some fans labeling him as the band's 'frontman' early on, Joe also said that each of the brothers had to come to the following realization: 'We could all share the spotlight, we could all share the studio, we could all share the songwriting, we could all share the money.'

TV couple Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty announce separation
TV stars Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty have announced their separation after more than a decade of marriage. They wed in September 2012 at a ceremony in Rome and have two children together. They said in a joint statement to the PA news agency: 'We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. 'We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. 'There will be no further comment.' Deeley, 48, has hosted ITV's This Morning alongside Ben Shephard since early last year, and previously lived in Los Angeles for more than 10 years. She hosted the US series So You Think You Can Dance, also appearing on SM:TV Live with TV duo Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly from 1998 to 2002. She also previously co-hosted BBC singing contest Fame Academy, alongside Kielty, and took over ITV's Stars In Their Eyes from Matthew Kelly. Northern Irish presenter Kielty, 54, is the host of RTE talk show The Late Late Show, having taken over from Ryan Tubridy in 2023. He made his feature film debut the year prior when he starred as a budding comedian going through a marriage break-up in Ballywalter, a movie that takes its title from the Northern Irish town in County Down. The comedian and presenter began his stand-up career as host of Northern Ireland's first comedy club, The Empire Laughs Back, in pre-ceasefire Belfast and graduated to presenting programmes such as Channel 4's Last Chance Lottery and BBC One chat show Patrick Kielty Almost Live. He also presented the documentary My Dad, The Peace Deal And Me, about his father's death at the hands of paramilitary gunmen. Kielty and Deeley's first child, a son called Milo, was born in 2016 and their second son, James, was born in 2018.

What we know about Beyond Paradise series 4 as filming begins
The beloved BBC crime drama is officially returning for a fourth series, with new details emerging about the team at Shipton Abbott. Beyond Paradise's Detective Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) is returning for another round of tantalising mysteries on the south coast in Shipton Abbott. That's right, the beloved BBC crime drama will be back for a fourth series and the great news was confirmed by Red Planet Pictures on Tuesday, 29 July. Not only that, but it was announced that production has already begun on the new episodes. For those who can't wait to learn more about the new series, here is what we know so far. When will Beyond Paradise series 4 be released? Red Planet Productions confirmed that production had begun on Beyond Paradise's first episode on 21 July with a picture of the very first slate of the series. The image showed a coastal view behind the slate and revealed that the episode itself will be directed by Fiona Walton. The Instagram social media post read: "We're back in Shipton Abbott! Filming has begun this week on the brand-new series of #BeyondParadise. Expect plenty of puzzling twists and turns as the team gear up for another series full of mystery, humour, and heart on the sunny shores of Devon and Cornwall." The BBC hasn't yet confirmed when series 4 will return to screens, but it is likely to continue the tradition of airing in the first half of 2026. The broadcaster will likely confirm the release date closer to the time of its release. What will Beyond Paradise series 4 be about? Series 3 ended with a dramatic twist in Humphrey and fiancée Martha (Sally Bretton) having to say goodbye to their foster child Rosie. The young girl had just started to become comfortable with her new foster parents, and they had grown close to her too, but in the finale, the time came for her to return to her birth parents. Humphrey and Martha's journey as foster parents is an important part of the series and it will likely continue to be a significant narrative in the next series. Elsewhere, the show has been exploring the personal relationships of several supporting characters, such as Esther (Zahra Ahmadi) and her budding romance with Archie (Jamie Bamber). The pair decided to part ways at the end of series 3, but the aftermath of this could play an important part in series 4. And then, of course, there will be a number of important cases for the team in Shipton Abbott to solve. Who stars in Beyond Paradise series 4? Marshall and Bretton are expected to return for the BBC show's fourth series, while other key players like Ahmadi, Dylan Lleweylln, Felicity Montagu, and Barbara Flynn are also expected to reprise their respective roles in the series. The BBC has not yet confirmed who will be part of the cast, but this is likely to be announced soon. The show will also continue to have an array of guest stars, with the cast confirmed closer to series 4's release date. Is there a trailer for Beyond Paradise series 4? No, a trailer for Beyond Paradise series 4 hasn't yet been released as it is too early for there to be one. Filming has only just begun, and a trailer is likely to land once filming is complete and a release date has been confirmed. Beyond Paradise series 1 to 3 is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
