The Young and the Restless Recap, June 12 Episode: Audra Heads to France for Dumas' Party and Kyle Faces Risky Game
Audra heads to France while Nate worries
At the Athletic Club, Audra shared her excitement with Nate about being invited to Dumas' exclusive event. She claimed her campaign idea caught Dumas' attention, though Nate remained doubtful. He questioned why such a private man would host a high-profile party just to promote perfume.
Nate suspected Dumas could be plotting something bigger, like targeting Chancellor-Winters. Audra dismissed his concerns, but Nate wasn't convinced. In the end, Nate offered to join her in France, but Audra insisted he stay to focus on work and family. They shared a kiss before parting, and Audra received a message from Kyle confirming he would see her in Nice.
At the ranch, Nikki packed for France and was joined by Nick, who revealed he wanted Sharon to come along. At Sharon's place, she and Mariah shared a tender moment over family photos, and Mariah hinted that she and Tessa had started working through their issues. Nick arrived and encouraged Sharon to come with him, with help from Mariah.
Though hesitant, Sharon finally agreed. Nick thanked Mariah for her help, and she questioned whether he and Sharon were becoming more than just friends. Nick denied it, but Mariah was glad Sharon had someone she trusted. Sharon packed her bags and left with Nick, but Mariah's smile faded once she was alone, showing the emotional toll of the recent changes.
Chelsea confronts Victor about Dumas
At Crimson Lights, Chelsea asked Victor to stop using Newman Media against Billy. She offered him a deal, her theory that Aristotle Dumas is actually Tucker McCall. Victor wasn't impressed, saying Tucker was in prison. Though Chelsea tried to make a case, Victor remained skeptical and walked away, confident she didn't have solid proof.
Back at the Abbott house, Kyle told Jack and Diane about Audra's plan for Dumas' party. Though Diane had concerns about Audra's intentions and Victor's influence, Jack saw an opportunity to outplay them. Kyle later confirmed Claire supported his trip to France. Meanwhile, Jack and Diane worried that Victor might be trying to manipulate Kyle and hurt Jabot through Audra.

Sharon Stone on the famous leg-crossing scene in Basic Instinct: ‘Made me an icon, but didn't bring me respect'
Hollywood actor Sharon Stone has opened up about the complex legacy of her most well-known role, reflecting on both the acclaim and controversy it brought her. In a recent interview with Business Insider, the 67-year-old revisited her performance as Catherine Tramell in the 1992 erotic thriller Basic Instinct, particularly addressing the notorious interrogation scene that featured her briefly exposing herself on camera. Sharon Stone in a still from Basic Instinct 'It made me an icon, but it didn't bring me respect,' she said of the infamous moment. 'But would I do it again? We don't get to make these choices in life. I don't participate in the fantasy world in this way,' she added. Over the years, Sharon has spoken candidly about how the scene was filmed. In her 2021 memoir The Beauty of Living Twice, she claimed she was misled into removing her underwear during the shoot after being told, 'We can't see anything — I just need you to remove your panties, as the white is reflecting the light, so we know you have panties on.' She also recounted discovering the final shot only during a screening, writing that she 'went to the projection booth, slapped Paul across the face, left, went to my car, and called my lawyer.' Director Paul Verhoeven has denied Stone's claims, stating she 'knew exactly what we were doing' during filming. However, in her latest remarks, Sharon struck a more measured tone. 'I very much believe that none of us knew at the time what we were getting in regard to that shot, and when Paul got it, he didn't want to lose it, and he was scared to show me. And I get that,' she explained. She further revealed that although she had the legal authority to demand the scene be cut, she ultimately allowed it to remain. 'Once I had time to calm down, I didn't make him take it out of the movie when I had the legal right to. So I did have the chance to do it differently, and I didn't because once I had the chance to step back, I understood, as the director, not the girl in the film, that that made the movie better,' she said. Despite the lasting scrutiny surrounding the scene, Sharon made it clear that her relationship with Paul remains positive. 'What I did with what happened [in the interrogation scene] is exactly the way I wanted to do it,' she said. '(Paul)Verhoeven and I have a wonderful relationship. I would work with him again in a second. We both understand. Even though we have different public ways of discussing it, we understand very well what happened regarding the crotch scene,' Sharon added. Her reflections come amid renewed interest in Basic Instinct, with news that the film is being rebooted under the guidance of original screenwriter Joe Eszterhas. Sharon's character, a seductive crime novelist entangled in a murder investigation, became one of the defining roles of the early '90s.

Ozzy Osbourne's cause of death revealed, here's what the report says
Ozzy Osbourne's official cause of death has been confirmed as a heart attack, along with Parkinson's disease and heart problems. The Black Sabbath legend, 76, passed away on July 22 at his Buckinghamshire home, surrounded by his wife Sharon and children. His daughter Aimee filed the death certificate in London, listing "acute myocardial infarction" (a severe heart attack) and "coronary artery disease" as primary causes, worsened by his long Parkinson's battle. Despite years of health struggles, Ozzy's family emphasized he died "surrounded by love" and requested privacy. The rock icon's passing came just 17 days after his emotional final performance with Black Sabbath in Birmingham, where he thanked fans 'from the bottom of my heart'. Ozzy faced multiple health issues before his death. He was secretly diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2003 but only revealed it publicly in 2020. His mobility declined sharply after a 2019 fall that worsened old spinal injuries from a 2003 quad-bike accident, leaving him in chronic pain and needing surgeries. "It's been five years of absolute hell," Ozzy admitted in 2023, crediting his family's support for keeping him going. Parkinson's affected his legs, but his voice remained strong. His son Jack clarified that spinal damage—not just Parkinson's—crippled Ozzy's body . Despite this, he defiantly performed his farewell show seated on a throne weeks before dying. Ozzy's funeral on July 25 was intimate and emotional. About 110 close family, friends, and musicians, including guitarist Zakk Wylde, gathered at his lakeside Buckinghamshire estate, where he was buried at "a beautiful point on the lake" per his wishes. Photos of Ozzy filled the home, and attendees received one as a keepsake . Days later, thousands of fans lined Birmingham's streets during a memorial procession. Sharon and their children tearfully laid flowers at the Black Sabbath Bench, where posters declared 'Birmingham will always love you'. The hometown tribute honored Ozzy's roots in Aston, where he "used to play on bomb sites" before changing rock music forever. Ozzy's legacy as a rock pioneer and survivor lives on. He sold over 100 million records, won three Grammys, and entered the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice . His final advice? Tributes poured in from Elton John, Metallica, and fans worldwide . Sharon, married to Ozzy for 43 turbulent years, once said: 'If it wasn't for Sharon, I'd be long dead'. Though known for bat-biting antics and "Prince of Darkness" theatrics, Ozzy wished to be remembered simply as "John Osbourne: a working-class kid from Aston" who beat the odds. His last album, *Patient Number 9*, won a 2023 Grammy, proving his passion endured till the end.

Michael Douglas denies getting into any argument with Sharon Stone before shooting Basic Instinct
Veteran Hollywood star Michael Douglas has firmly denied actor Sharon Stone's recent claim that the two had an argument before they were cast together in the popular Gollywood film Basic Instinct (1992). Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone starred in the popular 1992 film Basic Instinct 'He doesn't remember any argument in that timeframe,' Michael's representative, Allen Burry, said in a statement to People magazine. 'He actually only remembers seeing and meeting Sharon for the first time when he saw (director) Paul Verhoeven's screen test of her for Basic Instinct and (Michael) said, 'Absolutely, she's the one.'' For the unversed, in a recent interview with Business Insider, Sharon reflected on her breakout role as Catherine Tramell in the 1992 erotic thriller and suggested that Michael was hesitant to work with her. 'He wouldn't even test with me, but that was also for a different reason: We had an argument prior to that,' she said, adding that Michael 'did not want to put his bare a** out on the screen with an unknown.' The dispute, according to Sharon, happened at the Cannes Film Festival, where a group—including both actors—was gathered. 'He was talking about someone and their kids. I really, really knew this person he was talking about,' she recalled. 'So I said something and he responded to me, saying, 'What the f**k do you know?' It was in regard to a father-child relationship. Clearly, it triggered him.' She says she stood up to him then and there. 'So he screams this at me across a whole group of people... I pushed back my chair and said to him, 'Let's step outside.' That's how we first met.' However, Michael's team disputes that version of events, stating that the only time he remembers spending with Sharon at Cannes was after Basic Instinct had been shot and the two were promoting the film. 'And by the time they'd done the movie, they were friends,' Allen Burry added. Despite the conflicting recollections, Sharon has acknowledged that their dynamic eventually warmed. 'We became the greatest of friends, to this day,' she said. 'I admire him tremendously.'
