'I've made the decision not to return to Summer House,' DeSorbo shared on Instagram. 'Being part of this show has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my life — the friendships, the drama, the giggles, all unforgettable.'
She continued, 'You've seen me grow up over these last 7 summers. I'll always be beyond grateful for the memories, the community, and the opportunities this wild ride has brought me. But like all good things (and some bad decisions), it's time for this chapter to close.'
DeSorbo's Summer House exit comes after a massive year of professional growth outside the Bravo reality series. She and her former co-star and Giggly Squad podcast co-host Hannah Berner toured the U.S. with the Club Giggly comedy tour, selling out Radio City Music Hall twice. The duo also recently launched a YouTube video series that chronicled them trying new things in every city they stopped at.
In addition, DeSorbo and Berner became New York Times bestsellers after the launch of their book How to Giggle.
Just this week, DeSorbo launched her sleepware brand Daphne, inspired by one of her favorite hobbies — relaxing in bed.
'To my castmates, the fans, and my NBCU family: thank you. I never could've imagined what this journey would turn into — and how many of you would be along for the ride,' she added. 'And you haven't seen the last of me, I promise. So much more to do together, but for now, you know you can always find me and Daphne in my bed.'

Netflix drops first trailer for Cillian Murphy's new drama movie — and it already has me counting down the days
Netflix has released the first trailer for 'Steve,' an upcoming drama starring Cillian Murphy in what appears to be a compelling role. Set in the mid-1990s, the movie is a reimagining of Max Porter's acclaimed novella 'Shy.' Murphy portrays the titular character Steve, a devoted headteacher at a reform school for boys, grappling with a day that tests his patience, his principles, and his ability to keep his troubled students on track. The narrative intertwines Steve's efforts to maintain the school's integrity amidst impending closure with the struggles of Shy (Jay Lycurgo), a troubled teen battling internal conflict and violent impulses. Following its festival debut, 'Steve' will be released in select theaters on September 19 and will stream globally on Netflix starting October 3. The trailer begins with Steve being prompted to sum himself up in just three words. He chuckles before admitting, 'Very, very tired.' From there, we see him trying to connect with the challenging students in his care, even as he leans on substances to get through the pressure. As the trailer progresses, Steve's world grows increasingly chaotic. The students' turmoil intensifies around him, and he finds himself sinking deeper, desperately clinging to whatever coping strategies he can muster. From this footage alone, I can tell that 'Steve' is likely to be an emotional watch, with something real to say. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Along with the trailer, we also have an official synopsis: 'Set in the mid-90s, Steve is a reimagining of Max Porter's Sunday Times bestseller Shy. The film follows a pivotal day in the life of headteacher Steve and his students at a last-chance reform school amidst a world that has forsaken them. 'As Steve fights to protect the school's integrity and impending closure, we witness him grappling with his own mental health. In parallel to Steve's struggles, we meet Shy, a troubled teen caught between his past and what lies ahead as he tries to reconcile his inner fragility with his impulse for self-destruction and violence.' Directed by Tim Mielants, known for his work on 'Peaky Blinders,' and adapted by Porter himself, 'Steve' looks at what it means to be alone, to keep going, and to try to support others along the way. Murphy told Deadline: 'I gotta say, it was one of the most kind of exposing and terrifying characters I've ever played, because it was written bespoke for me by Max [porter], but also had, I think, quite a lot of him in there… There's elements that I feel like, you know, there was no accent.' He added: 'Both my parents are teachers, so I grew up in a household where I saw the after effects of standing in front of 35 teenagers all day long while my mother was trying to raise four of her own, and they were both out at work. My grandfather is a headmaster. All my aunts and uncles are teachers. So I know the inside-out of that world.' With a standout cast including Tracey Ullman, Emily Watson, and Simbi Ajikawo, 'Steve' from Murphy's Big Things Films is set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 5, 2025. Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow's score is designed to deepen the drama's emotional impact, layering ambient textures with hints of 1990s-inspired tones. Another reason why I'm excited to see this Netflix original. Most of all, the trailer hints at a movie that may fuse high-stakes intensity with deeply human moments, exploring the complicated realities of life at a reform school. With Murphy at the helm alongside a talented cast, 'Steve' looks set to offer a mix of tension and heart, hinting that it could become one of the year's more compelling streaming originals. I've already added it to my must-watch list. 'Steve' releases in select theaters on September 19 and will stream on Netflix starting October 3.

Mayor of Kingstown season 4: everything we know so far about the hit Paramount+ show's return
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Mayor of Kingstown season 4: key information - Officially renewed in December 2024- Coming to Paramount+ in October- Main cast expected to return- New characters confirmed- No official plot details - Taylor Sheridan has seven seasons in mind Mayor of Kingstown season 4 returns in October, which is no doubt excellent news for fans of the crime thriller. Spearheaded by Yellowstone's Taylor Sheridan alongside Hugh Dillon, it's one of the best shows on Paramount+ and there's plenty more where that came from. Viewers have watched the McClusky family position themselves as power brokers acting as the go-between for police, criminals, inmates, prison guards and politicians. And leading the McClusky family? Mike (Jeremy Renner) as he navigates Kingstown, a place with a real lack of order, in hopes of digging his way out. Here's everything we can expect from release date speculation, predicted cast, plot rumors, and more. Full spoilers follow for Mayor of Kingstown seasons 1-3. Potential spoilers are also discussed for season 4. Mayor of Kingstown season 4 release date prediction While Mayor of Kingstown season 4 doesn't have an exact release date, it does have a release window – and that's October. Thanks to an Instagram post by the show's co-creator, Hugh Dillon, it was revealed on June 10 that season 4 had officially wrapped on production and will start streaming on Paramount+ in October. Mayor of Kingstown season 4 trailer speculation With filming wrapped on Mayor of Kingstown season 4 and an impending October release window in mind, I'd expect the trailer to arrive in September – and when it does, I'll post it here. If we take a look at season 3's trailer release, it officially dropped on April 25 before the season arrived on June 2. That's just over a month before, which is the same gap as the trailer release to show launch of season 2. Mayor of Kingstown season 4 confirmed cast Spoilers follow for Mayor of Kingstown season 1 to 3. The Mayor of Kingstown season 4 cast has been growing in size with returning cast and newcomers alike. Here's who we can expect to star this time round: Jeremy Renner as Mike McLusky Hugh Dillon as Ian Tobi Bamtefa as Deverin 'Bunny' Washington Nishi Munshi as Tracy Taylor Handley as Kyle McLusky Hamish Allan-Headley as Derek Webster as Clayton Cardenas as Deputy Warden Torres Edie Falco as Nina Hobbs Lennie James as Frank Moses Laura Benanti as Cindy Stephens Derek Rivera as Cortez As mentioned, there's already been a few casting announcements for Mayor of Kingstown season 4 including Edie Falco, Lennie James and Laura Benanti all revealed in the official Instagram post above. And, as per Deadline in January, Clayton Cardenas joined as Deputy Warden Torres: "the right-hand man to the prison's new warden at Anchor Bay Prison". Another cast announcement, confirmed again by Deadline in June, is Derek Rivera. He'll be joining the cast for season 4 as Cortez: "a young, cold, and measured Colombian Sicario in a recurring role". Mayor of Kingstown season 4 story synopsis and rumors Full spoilers follow for Mayor of Kingstown seasons 1-3. Potential spoilers for Mayor of Kingstown season 4. The Mayor of Kingstown season 3 finale was tumultuous, to say the least. While a lot of issues were resolved, most importantly the Russian mafia which has had a chokehold on the McClusky family for three strong seasons, the stage is set for Mike to navigate new territory. It also comes as no surprise really that new cast announcements have been made for Mayor of Kingstown season 4, considering the characters that were lost in season 3. There was Iris (Emma Laird) and Kareem (Michael Beach) met their untimely fates. And, Milo (Aidan Gillen), who seemingly returned from the dead to take over Konstantin, succeeding with the manipulation of Iris before being overpowered by Mike. Milo's return made Mike's plan to finally rid Kingstown of its Russian problem in the season 3 finale a little tricky, but he managed it all the same. For season 4 though, co-creator Hugh Dillon told The Hollywood Reporter that the season 3 finale: "leaves a vacuum". But, he adds: "And it will be filled, it's human nature". But, who's next to step into the criminal abyss left behind by the eradication of the Russian mafia, we'll have to wait and see. Then, there was the shootout on the bridge during a confrontation with Bunny's game, which saw Kyle shoot at Robert to protect the innocent civilians around them. While this subsequently led to Kyle's arrest, it leaves the door open for Robert's story in season 4 given Evelyn is still hellbent on looking into him, despite him recovering in hospital from Kyle's shooting. It's all speculation for now as the Mayor of Kingstown season 4 plot is kept firmly under wraps. And I'd expect no less from a show filled with complicated dynamics and brutal exchanges. Though, Dillon did say, when it comes to Mayor of Kingstown season 4: "The scripts are graet, the characters great. And that's what we want to do. We don't want to leave any strone unturned. This show is very much rock 'n' roll". Will there be more seasons of Mayor of Kingstown? Mayor of Kingstown has a rather complicated relationship with renewals, especially after Jeremy Renner's serious accident in 2023 left the entire show hanging in the balance. But, even after returning for season 3, it still took a few months to confirm the return of Mayor of Kingstown season 4 was happening. It appears though that the plan has always been for more. In conversation with ScreenRant, Hugh Dillon reveals the aim has always been for multiple more seasons – with Taylor Sheridan already having planned an ending in season 7: "Well, Taylor's my mentor, he has been. He's coached me, this was the first thing he ever wrote, and he was my acting coach. "He coached me on 100 episodes of TV, and we would talk about this all the time. And when we first mapped it out, he's the king of knowing where it ends. I like intros, and I like explosive intros. And he has an ending for it in season 7". Dillon added: "So, our goal is to get to that season 7, because that's as far as we can get, because that's where he's always had it". Whether the show makes it that far is one thing, but if Sheridan has plans to extend its run with a multi-year deal at Paramount+ already in place, there's some real hope for more Mayor of Kingstown.
