IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Renée Zellweger and Ant Anstead shut down split rumours

News.com.au2 days ago

On Thursday, editors at the Daily Mail claimed the Oscar-winning actress and TV personality had been "living apart for the past year". They also alleged Anstead has been staying at the home of Julia French in Laguna Beach, California while Zellweger films the upcoming season of Only Murders in the Building in New York City. A source claimed the Wheeler Dealers co-host had been living in an apartment on French's property since he moved out of his rental in April. However, a representative for Anstead later shut down the report.

World's oldest practising doctor, 102, reveals ‘enemy of longevity'

Most people slow down with age, trading suits and deadlines for slippers and daytime TV. Not Dr Howard Tucker. The American neurologist treated patients for nearly eight decades, earning the Guinness World Record title for oldest practising doctor just before his 99th birthday. Now 102, Dr Tucker may have hung up his white coat, but he hasn't hit the brakes. He spends his days lecturing future doctors at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, and consulting on medical-legal cases, thanks to the law degree he picked up at the age of 67. Oh, and he's gone viral on TikTok while promoting What's Next, a documentary about his life, produced by his grandson. Dr Tucker recently peeled back the curtain on his remarkable run — and how he's stayed sharp, driven, and active well into his second century. 'Retirement, I think, is the enemy of longevity,' Dr Tucker recently told the US Today show's Al Roker. 'You have to have some purpose in life and get up in the morning and know what you're about.' Dr Tucker continued practising medicine until age 100, only stopping when the hospital where he worked shuttered its doors in 2022. If it wasn't for the closure, Tucker told People, he'd 'absolutely' still be seeing patients. He's even 'putting out feelers' for another gig, though he admits, 'nobody wants me at my age'. 'But I'll keep trying,' he said. Dr Tucker has no intention of stepping away from his current workload. But for anyone thinking about throwing in the towel, he's got a word of advice. 'If they retire from their work, they should at least do something as a hobby, whether it be communal work or self-hobbies,' he told Today. 'You need a stimulus for the brain daily.' Science backs him up. Studies show that having a sense of purpose, continually learning new things, and engaging in activities that require problem-solving, creativity, and attention are key for staying mentally sharp into old age. The average American lifespan was 77.5 years in 2022, and Dr Tucker blew past that long ago. His parents lived to 84 and 96, but he said good genes are only part of the equation. 'Heredity and family history of longevity is a healthy start. However, it must be supported by moderation of nutrition, alcohol, and happiness,' Dr Tucker wrote in his Guinness submission. For Dr Tucker, happiness comes from work, his wife of over 70 years, their four kids, 10 grandchildren, and a lifelong love for Cleveland sports. Research shows that people with strong social connections and a positive outlook tend to outlive those who are isolated or depressed. Tucker has also made staying active a lifelong priority. Writing for CNBC, Dr Tucker said he's always avoided letting himself get out of shape. He gave up skiing after a fall in his late 80s left him with a broken neck, but he continues to snowshoe and hits the treadmill for at least four kilometres a day in his home gym. Dr Tucker noted that even small habits make a difference, with studies suggesting just 15 minutes of walking a day can cut the risk of early death by nearly 25 per cent. His diet is simple. On the mindbodygreen podcast, Dr Tucker said he starts his day with seasonal fruit and sometimes cereal, washed down with 2 per cent fat milk and a cup of tea instead of coffee. He usually skips lunch to stay sharp, and dinner is typically fish and vegetables — especially broccoli — with the occasional serving of meat. He and his wife end the day with something sweet, sometimes fruit, sometimes ice cream. Dr Tucker rarely drinks but makes an exception for his favourite cocktail. 'I love my martinis,' he told Medical Economics. He's never touched a cigarette. With his 103rd birthday around the corner in July, Tucker isn't wasting time worrying about the end. 'I never think of death,' he told Today. 'To be alive is to know that you're going to die because life is a fatal disease. And so I live it.'

Matt Damon ditches his usual clean-cut appearance for latest movie role

Matt Damon looked unlike the clean-cut movie star we've all come to know and love at an event over the weekend. The actor headlined the Netflix Tudum 2025: The Live Event rocking a head full of grey hair and an unruly beard to match. The 54-year-old attended the global fan event at The Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, with his best friend and longtime collaborator Ben Affleck, with both giving fans a first look at their upcoming crime-thriller, The Rip. However, before sharing a teaser for their new cop drama set to drop on Netflix in January 2026, Affleck roasted Damon's beard. 'I trusted Matt would shave the beard before Tudum — and here we are,' the 52-year-old actor said on stage alongside their co-stars Teyana Taylor and Sasha Calle. Damon is currently on a break in filming the Christopher Nolan-directed, fantasy film The Odyssey in Italy. In the movie, Damon plays Ancient Greek mythological hero Odysseus, which explains the beard. The blockbuster will also star Zendaya and her fiance Tom Holland, as well as A-listers Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o and Charlize Theron. Filming has been underway since February with the star-studded cast shooting in various locations in Scotland, Ireland, Morocco, Greece and Favignana, situated west of the coast of Sicily. Last month, Damon was photographed in Favignana rocking a ripped physique on a yacht as he enjoyed some time off from filming the blockbuster. As the pics went viral, Affleck joked at the time that he couldn't go anywhere without being asked about Damon's chiselled abs, especially while at the premiere of his new film The Accountant 2. 'God damn! I just went to the premiere and every interviewer, they were like they found the secret of life,' Affleck recalled on Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast on April 30, adding that reporters at screenings wouldn't stop showing him photos of Damon's six-pack. 'I was like, 'The one time he got in shape!'' But Affleck also praised his best mate for the transformation. 'It looks good,' he added. 'It ain't easy when you touch 50. You boys will see!' Damon and Affleck's upcoming film The Rip follows a group of Miami cops whose bond unravels after they discover millions in cash in a derelict stash house. As outside forces learn about their pricey discovery, no on can be trusted and they begin to turn on each other. 'This movie takes a look at the things people will do for money,' Affleck said at the Netflix event.
