Meghan Markle Just Subtly Snubbed Beyonce After the Singer's Mom Shaded the Duchess
Meghan Markle was noticeably absent from one of her favorite artists' concerts. Lots of Prince Harry and the As Ever founder's close friends attended Beyoncé's last Cowboy Carter concert in Las Vegas, but why weren't the Duke and Duchess there? Gayle King shared a photo on Instagram with Oprah Winfrey, Kerry Washington, Kris Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, and Tyler Perry. Some fans thought that it was odd that Meghan Markle wasn't included, as much of the famous attendees were her neighbors. One person commented, 'WAIT! But where is Meghan? I see all her BESTIES showing up at the Beyoncé concert, but no Meghan!'.

But NO MEGHAN!! Oh oh, is there trouble in Montecito Paradise??' Meghan's friendship was highlighted when the longtime talk show host aired their bombshell interivew, and Tyler Perry had opened up his house to Harry and Meghan when they decided to move to the assured, Meghan and Harry did have the time of their lives at the Cowboy Carter concert held in Los Angeles. She posted a picture of them attending the concert in May, and captioned it, 'About last night…. Thank you @beyonce and team for an amazing concert (and a very fun date night)! All love' The absence also comes after some royal experts think that Beyoncé's mom Tina Knowles was shading Meghan in her podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder. Tina talked about being in constant communication with her daughter, 'We have disagreements about things, but it's her business.' She emphasized talking to her daughter beyond her place in the entertainment industry, 'I'm helping with the business because I just want to leave this earth knowing that she, other than entertainment, is going to be okay,' she added. 'It's her business, so she gets to win.' Royal expert Sarah Hewson told The Sun that Tina's comments were a deliberate swipe at Meghan. 'There was one particular line that stood out for me when Tina said, 'of course we disagree as family, and when we're in business together and we're working together, there will be disagreements.'' She pointed out the irony in Meghan agreeing with the statement as the Duchess doesn't talk to her father Thomas Markle, and the obvious strain between Harry and Charles. 'It really stood out because she used the phrase wasted time and Meghan agreed and said, 'yes, it's wasted time,'' Bronte Roy said. However, when it comes to Harry and the royal family, it seems like they're one step closer to reconciliation. 'Life is precious. I don't know how much longer my father has,' Harry said about his father who was diagnosed with cancer in 2024. 'He won't speak to me because of this security stuff, but it would be nice to reconcile.' He also added that his father should be open to reconciliation and help solve his security problem. 'There is a lot of control and ability in my father's hands,' he said. 'Ultimately, this whole thing could be resolved through him. Not necessarily by intervening, but by stepping aside, allowing the experts do what is necessary.' The father and son have seemingly put the first steps forward to making amends when Harry, who gave his press reps, Meredith Maines and Liam Maguire, the green light to meet with the cancer-stricken king's secretary, Tobyn Andreae. As for who is a proponent of the reconciliation, it's none other than Meghan Markle herself. A source told NewsNation that the Duchess 'realizes she miscalculated when she orchestrated Megxit and then basically smeared the Royal family in the Oprah Winfrey interview and the Netflix docuseries.' However, there's still a long way to go. 'The royal family does not need Harry or Meghan,' the insider said. 'But Harry and Meghan need the royal family… they are only valuable individually if they are tied to the royal family. Being 'Royal' translates to money and deals for them. If [Harry and Meghan] are cast aside, they have no value.' The source continued, 'Regardless of what's happening, there does need to be an open channel of communication between the two households, but there is a lack of trust. Whether and how that is repaired is the problem.'

Brooke Hogan shares emotional tribute to father Hulk Hogan following his death, addresses their estrangement
Hulk Hogan's daughter Brooke Hogan has spoken out for the first time following her father's unexpected death. On July 24, the WWE icon, born Terry Gene Bollea, passed away at the age of 71 after he suffered a cardiac event at his Florida home. On Tuesday, Brooke, 37, who was estranged from Hulk at the time of his death, shared an emotional tribute to her father and clarified the circumstances around their rift. "My dad's blood runs through my veins. His eyes shine through my children. And our bond has never broken, not even in his final moments," Brooke began in a slideshow of written posts that she shared on Instagram. "We had a connection deeper than words, one that spanned lifetimes," she continued. "I am so grateful I knew the real version of him. Not just the one the world viewed through a carefully curated lens. We shared a quiet, sacred bond, one that could be seen and felt by anyone who witnessed us together. When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us." "He used to remind me, 'All of this is temporary and I'll always find my way back to you. I truly believe that - we will find each other in every lifetime," she added. "I know he's at peace now, out of pain, and in a place as beautiful as he imagined. He used to speak about this moment with such wonder and hope. Like meeting God was the greatest championship he'd ever have." Brooke went on to explain that she felt "it was necessary to clear a few things up" regarding how her relationship with Hulk has been portrayed in the media. "We never had a 'big fight,'" she wrote." "My father and I never 'fought.' It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear, know, or understand." "My father was confiding in me about issues weighing on his heart, both personal and business," Brooke continued. "I offered to be a life raft in whatever capacity he needed. I told him he had my support. I begged him to rest, to take care of himself. He had nothing else to prove to the world or anyone." Brooke shared that she and her husband, former NHL star Steven Olesky, moved to Florida to be closer to Hulk as he was facing health struggles. "We had been through almost 25 surgeries together, and then all of a sudden he didn't want me at surgeries…everything started getting covered in a thick veil," Brooke recalled. "It was like there was a force field around him that I couldn't get through." "He was telling me these things, being so vulnerable with me and heard my pleas, then suddenly something shifted, and he made a choice to walk the path that clearly tore at his spirit," she continued. "I felt a disconnect. What followed were respectful disagreements that took an emotional toll on me." "During the last two years, I had to step away to protect my heart," Brooke added. However, Brooke shared that Olesky had maintained contact with Hulk in an effort to repair the relationship between his wife and her father. She explained that Olesky had been "quietly reaching out to my dad without me knowing, trying to find a safe way back in for me. After my father passed, I read those messages, some answered, some ignored….but all of them broke my heart." "I know in my heart I did everything I could," Brooke wrote. "He knew I would run through a burning building for him. And in many ways, along the path of life, I did. He knows how deeply, how hard and how purely I loved him. I am at peace knowing this" "All I ever truly wanted from my father was love, honesty, and a deep connection," she added. "And for a few special years, I had that–with memories that will last a lifetime." "My world is forever changed. But I'm deeply blessed with a loving husband and two beautiful children who remind me every day of life's greatest gifts," Brooke concluded. Brooke and Olesky, who married in 2022, announced in January 2025 that they had welcomed fraternal twins, son Oliver Andrew and daughter Molly Gene, the latter of whom shares a middle name with Hulk. Hulk shared Brooke and son Nick, 35, with his ex-wife Linda Hogan. The wrestling star and Linda tied the knot in 1983 but separated in 2007 and finalized their divorce in 2009. The family's life together was documented in the reality TV show "Hogan Knows Best," which ran for four seasons from 2005 to 2007 on VH1. After "Hogan Knows Best" was canceled, Brooke starred in the reality spin-off "Brooke Knows Best" for two seasons from 2008 to 2009. Rumors of a rift between Brooke and Hulk first sparked in September 2023 after she did not attend her father's wedding when he married his third wife, Sky Daily. Brooke is also estranged from Linda. In March, Linda claimed she hadn't seen Brooke in over eight years, due to Hulk's behavior. "Brooke doesn't talk to us. She had twins, she got married [and] she didn't tell us." After Linda blamed Hulk for the family's rift, Brooke fired back on Instagram and explained that she didn't speak to her mother or father for separate reasons. "Each individual, on their own, has given me more than enough reasons over the years to make this extremely hard and painful decision to end contact," Brooke wrote in part in a lengthy statement that she shared on Instagram at the time. "As much as I not only understand and have empathy for their own struggles, I absolutely LOVE them with every fiber of my being – which deep down I think they know. My heart hurts every day, and not a day passes it does not affect me. Inside of me, there is a little girl who desperately wants and needs her Mom and Dad."

Hulk Hogan's ex-wife speaks out on wrestling star's death for first time
Hulk Hogan's ex-wife, Linda Hogan, addressed the late WWE star's death for the first time in a social media post Monday. Linda made the statement in the comment section of a photo she posted of her and Hulk July 19, five days before Hogan's death, captioned "The good ole days!" The two were married for 29 years before their 2009 divorce. They had two children, Brooke and Nick. "I had no idea he would pass away this soon," she wrote. "We all really thought he would make a comeback! Big surprise. We are all devastated. It's hitting me so hard. I loved Hulkster more than he loved me. It hurt when he cheated. But he was sooo famous. I sort of [understood], but it was crushing. It hurt. I [never] got over him or started a real relationship [with] anyone... I missed HIM! "I've been weeping all day . The finality . It's just shocking. We spent every minute together for so many years. I've known him since he was 28 yrs old ! I was 22. I still love him. Even [though] I never spoke or saw him, Nick did... and Nick would tell me things and vice versa. Just news about life. I still felt... although broken... we still were a family. It's so hard to know he's just gone. I tried to stay strong for Nick... but I'm melting down now. It's very sad. I love you Hulkster. You were my man. The only man for me. RIP." Linda and Hulk had publicly feuded in recent years. She publicly called Hulk "a "sex addict" and "complete liar" and said their family was "a complete mess" in an Instagram video in March. Hulk died Thursday after a reported cardiac arrest. The famed wrestler had reportedly been battling multiple health issues in the months and years before his death. In an appearance on Jake Paul's "Impaulsive" podcast in September 2024, Hogan revealed he'd had 25 surgeries the previous 10 years. This included 10 back surgeries, procedures on both shoulders and knee and hip replacements on both sides.
