Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy Mourn Devastating Loss, Vow to 'Look In On' Her Daughter
Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy Mourn Devastating Loss, Vow to 'Look In On' Her Daughter originally appeared on Parade. Blue Bloods star and his wife are mourning a terrible loss this weekend. They posted on their Instagram accounts on Saturday, August 2, that a beloved New Kids on the Block fan named Kelly has died after she succumbed to her injuries from an accident. Wahlberg wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of the two of them together: "I often say 'life is precious' and 'tomorrow is not promised.' We are reminded of this every day. We feel it every time we have to say goodbye to a loved one, or to a BH Family member. Today is, painfully, one of those difficult days. Kelly was a Blockhead, a mother, a daughter, a sister, a friend and more. I got to know Kelly pretty well over the last few years, though she's been around for a long time. I got to know her family over the last few days, though I hope to know them for a long time. Learning about how Kelly lived, traveled, followed her heart, planned then packed for a trip whenever her spirit was moved (to solo Joe/Vegas/The Clubhouse/I Got It parties/JK opening for N' Sync or even to beautiful landmarks around the country with her family), I realized that she truly lived life the way we all say we want to — TO THE FULLEST! She walked the talk. She did it simply because it is who she was! It's something that so many Blockheads, like Kelly, have in common. "It's something that is not lost on me, and it inspires me every single day. To keep being there. To keep following my heart. To keep living into our shared experience and to keep celebrating this magical relationship that we all share. To keep showing up — the way Kelly kept showing up. Yet, it also makes it all the more painful knowing that she was showing up again, and now she's gone. It's very difficult to process. I can't understand, nor can I explain, why god moves the way god moves. I don't know what his plan was the day Kelly left us. I can only trust that she is now on the greatest road trip of them all, with him. Following her heart, like she always did, on her way to being the same incredible angel in heaven that she was down here on earth. She will be missed. She will be remembered. She will be celebrated."It hurts, a lot, and it's going to hurt for a long time. But I know that I will see that smile, and that gorgeous red hair, again. When I do, as always, I will yell 'MINNESOTA'! My love to Keira and Laura, two of the bravest people I have ever met, and my love eternally to you, Kelly. My Blockhead sister & Donnie girl forever. 🙏🏼💔🕊️." On Kelly's Instagram account, her daughter Keira posted details about what happened, writing, "As many of you know, my mom was in an accident last week. Unfortunately, she didn't make it and has passed away. I'm completely shocked and heartbroken and blindsided, and I don't think I will ever be okay. That being said, I'm forever grateful to the absolutely insane amount of support my family and I have received. For days, I've received dozens of messages and I've seen all of the prayers and well-wishes for my mom. During this time, these hopes for my and my mom's well-being have kept me going.' In the comments, Wahlberg wrote, "You are truly the most courageous person I have ever known. Jenny and I are here for you always. Tara too. Stay strong. Love you Keira. 💜," to which Keira replied, "@donniewahlberg She loved you, we all love you, and I love you. Thank you for EVERYTHING, Donnie. 💜." On her own Instagram, McCarthy said that they would check in on Keira in the wake of her mother's death, writing, "My Dear sweet Kelly. It all seems so surreal. I finally got to meet the wonderful 'Minnesota girl' that Donnie kept raving to me about. Only to find that you were even more wonderful than he described. I am completely devastated, knowing that I will not get to know you more. I truly felt like I met a friend when I met you. Donnie and I will miss you so much, and we will look in on your beautiful Keira. Rest peacefully, my beautiful friend. 🙏🏻❤️." 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy Mourn Devastating Loss, Vow to 'Look In On' Her Daughter first appeared on Parade on Aug 3, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 3, 2025, where it first appeared.

Jenny McCarthy feels '25 again' after giving up vegan diet
Jenny McCarthy feels "25 again" after swapping her vegan meals for a meat-based diet. The 52-year-old TV star spent years avoiding animal products because she wanted to eat "clean" but it played havoc with her digestive system and left her feeling bloated and she was told to try a "carnivore" diet by a doctor who warned her she may need a colostomy bag if her bowel problems didn't clear up. She told PEOPLE: "My bloat was so bad that it always made me feel like I was about three months pregnant. "And I'm sorry if this is too TMI [too much information], but I was a complicated person who only went to the bathroom once every 14 days ... "I went on the carnivore diet. I was so against it, but my doctor was like, you've tried everything but this, so you're going carnivore ... "I've got to tell you, it saved my gut. I go to the bathroom every single day now - and it made me feel like I was 25 again." Jenny explained she suffers from a long list of health problems including Hashimoto's disease, a leaky gut and Coeliac disease, but her new diet has helped her feel better and she's also lost weight and her skin problems have cleared up. She added: "All of my acne has cleared up. In one month, I lost 12 to 15 pounds ... You can't half-a** it [the diet]. But if I showed you a picture of my face from even a year ago, it's so different. I didn't realize how swollen I was all the time." It comes after Jenny previously had to deny she'd been taking the drug Ozempic to lose weight, insisting she's slimmed down naturally but used a an AirSculpt procedure to remove fat from her tummy. She previously told Us Weekly: "As women, we hear the: 'Oh no, when you get older you're gonna get that tire on your belly. There's nothing you can do.' "And I always thought I was kind of invincible because I was a jock in school. I'm like, 'I played every sport. I've worked out forever. "I'm not gonna have that problem.' But no matter how much I tried to intermittent fast [to combat aging, its side effects persist]. "And I'm not an Ozempic person. I wanted a permanent solution to a targeted area with a bonus of fixing my hands - and that's what I got."

Diddy Party Pics From Night He Allegedly Overdosed at Playboy Mansion
One of Cassie's bombshells in Diddy's federal trial is her claim he suffered a 2012 drug overdose following a Playboy Mansion bash, and we've got hot shots from the fateful, celeb-packed event. Cassie told the jury Thursday about the couple's on-and-off use of opiates over the course of their tumultuous years-long relationship, and she specifically referenced a wild night in February 2012. She said, on that day, the couple had a freak-off, then went to a sex club in San Bernardino -- about 2 hours east of L.A. -- and later, Diddy went to the Playboy Mansion without Cassie. While he was there, Diddy grabbed the mic and partied with the likes of Paris Hilton, Too $hort, Pam Anderson, Jenny McCarthy and more. Looks like a great time was had, but Cassie testified later she helped take Diddy to a hospital after he took a very strong painkiller ... and she was told he had OD'd. Check out our gallery of celebs in attendance that night.

Generate Key Takeaways In the grand culmination of lucky Season 13, the final four battle it out for the Golden Mask trophy on The Masked Singer! Boogie Woogie, Coral, Mad Scientist Monster, and Pearl take the stage for the last time as panelists Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Ken Jeong, and Rita Ora make their final guesses for a chance to win their own Golden Ear trophy. Four mystery celebs will be unmasked, but only one can walk away a winner as Nick Cannon hosts "The Two-Hour Lucky Season 13 Finale" episode of The Masked Singer airing Wednesday, May 7 (8 p.m. ET/PT) on Fox. More from GoldDerby So far this season, 11 famous faces have been unmasked: Cedric the Entertainer as Honey Pot, Oscar De La Hoya as Fuzzy Peas, Aubrey O'Day as Ant, Scheana Shay as Bat, Flavor Flav as Space Ranger, James Van Der Beek as Griffin, Candace Cameron Bure as Cherry Blossom, Method Man as Stud Muffin, Erika Jayne as Yorkie, Matthew Lawrence as Paparazzo, and Edwin McCain as Nessy. Find out who the final four are by following our live blog below. Pearl Kicking things off is the show-stopping Pearl, who shares what making the finale means to the performer who always brings shine and sizzle to the stage: "Every time I put on this Pearl costume, I think it's so strange that I've pulled off being this bejeweled princess. It's so unlike me. I'd say the hoodie and sweatpants is more in line with who I am. What can I say? I'm gritty, raw, unapologetic. I've always been that way. A lot of times, especially when I was first starting out, it stood in the way of my success. I'll never forget this one time I was singing for a record exec, and I see out of the corner of my eye, him writing down 'N-O.' I was about to break into tears right then there, so I just closed my eyes, kept on going, and finished the audition. Turns out, what that note said was 'N-O-W.' Sign her now! What a difference one letter can make. Even after all these years, I think people still don't know what I'm capable of — until now! Being here, I've been able to come out of my shell and show my range. Tonight, I'm hoping to get another 'W.' It would mean the world to win that Golden Mask trophy." Pearl sang "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" by KT Tunstall before receiving a surprise phone call from her daughter. Pearl responded, "That means the world. I'm so proud of my daughter. To hear her say that she's proud of me — I'm floored. I am crying." The panelists' then reviewed their guesses for the season including Shania Twain, Faith Hill, Kacey Musgraves, Madonna, Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, and Melissa Etheridge. Coral Next up is Coral, who shares what this journey has been like for her: "As a little girl, I had those Audrey Hepburn Breakfast at Tiffany's dreams. Staring at the old Hollywood movies from the other side — wishing one day to be just like the glamorous stars in them. My wish came true! I became a part of one of the biggest franchises of all time. Now there are little girls watching me! It's so surreal. But, I didn't want it to just stop there. For years I was trying to release my music — to be a pop star. But people weren't listening. They just thought of me as that girl from those movies. The Masked Singer is the perfect place to come when you've got something to prove. Here, I was given the opportunity to show that I am a triple threat. I've grown so much since I've started this. I've found my confidence, I've found my range, and I've even found that I can do it all in knee-high boots! Tonight, I'm dreaming about that trophy. Winning it would take me over the moon." The Masked Singer Coral Coral sang "Moon River" by Audrey Hepburn before receiving a surprise phone call from her dad. Coral responded, "It means so much. Coming on this show, I just wanted to be more confident in my singing and performing. My dad and mom are my biggest supporters." The panelists' then reviewed their guesses for the season including Rachel Zegler, Meg Donnelly, Sofia Carson, Dove Cameron, Hailee Steinfeld, Hilary Duff, Selena Gomez, Brittany Snow, and Anna Kendrick. Boogie Woogie Next up is everyone's favorite disco daddy, Boogie Woogie, who shared this: "Before I got here I watched Masked Singer at home and thought it looked like such a good time, but it's been so much more. Becoming Boogie has brought tons of joy. It's also unlocked so many emotions. Back when I was just getting started, I was doing the starving artist hustle. I practiced in my tiny apartment performing for no one, telling my family, 'Don't give up on me. I've got this.' Until one day, I got a knock at the door and a neighbor told me, 'Your voice sucks. Give up the dream.' Their words hit me hard. They pierced my positivity, but I refused to let them stop me. Now that I'm a dad, I would give anything to protect my kids from rejection, but I've realized that a big part of life is learning how to push through the pain. There's always beauty on the other side. You find yourself where you're meant to be — like here tonight! If I can win that Golden Mask trophy, it will be the ultimate sign for my kids that no dream is ever worth giving up on." Boogie Woogie sang "Freedom! '90" by George Michael before receiving a surprise phone call from his daughter. Boogie Woogie responded, "That was my little booger! I love my daughters and I want to show them that positivity and sincerity can win." The panelists' then reviewed their guesses for the season including Neil Patrick Harris, Criss Angel, Andy Samberg, Ryan Tedder, Darren Criss, Ed Sheeran, and Charlie Puth. Mad Scientist Monster Mad Scientist Monster gave the fourth and final performance before the audience vote, but first shared what this journey has meant to him: "To be honest, this music thing was sort of a happy, crazy accident. I had always thought I'd be an athlete, and when that wasn't the case, I was lost. My dad was the one who motivated me — and he encouraged me to go the unconventional route. Wow, am I glad I did! Watching him see my success with so much joy over the years is why I keep going. When my group parted ways, he's the one who gave me the strength to know I could go out on my own. Being here has been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reintroduce myself to the world. The warm response has been validating and intoxicating. It's made me think going solo is the right choice after all. Making it to the finale, I'm more encouraged than ever that I'm on the right path. I'll always be grateful to Masked Singer for giving me this chance to shine on my own. Regardless, this grand experiment has been a success." Mad Scientist Monster sang "Stay" by Sugarland before receiving a surprise phone call from his mom and dad. Mad Scientist Monster responded, "My parents literally mean everything to me. I'm very blessed. They've been there every step of my life. I'm feeling the love up here." The panelists' then reviewed their guesses for the season including Tim McGraw, Jelly Roll, Sam Hunt, Brian Kelley, Trace Adkins, John Rich, Big Kenny, Gary LeVox, and Billy Ray Cyrus. Fourth Place After the audience vote, the masked singer in fourth place is Mad Scientist Monster. Before he revealed himself, the panelists got to open up a "Crack the Case" clue case. Mad Scientist's case held a golden fish necklace. He said, "It represents a lot to me. I love the outdoors, I grew up on and near the waters, and I love fishing with my dad still to this day." The panelists then submitted their final guesses: Sam Hunt (Rita), Trace Adkins (Robin), Brian Kelley (Jenny), and Kane Brown (Ken). Mad Scientist Monster then pulled off his mask and revealed himself as Grammy-nominated country singer from Florida Georgia Line, Brian Kelley! That's another point on the board for Jenny! Third Place The singer finishing in third place is Coral. Before she revealed herself, the panelists got to open up a "Crack the Case" clue case. Coral's case held a cheerleader outfit. She said, "This uniform changed my life and gave me the ability to chase my dreams. Now, people cheer for me!" The panelists then submitted their final guesses: Meg Donnelly (Rita), Hailee Steinfeld (Jenny), Brittany Snow (Robin), and Peyton List (Ken). Coral then pulled off her mask and revealed herself as Zombies star Meg Donnelly! That's another point for Rita toward the Golden Ear trophy. Final Showdown Prior to the final vote, Boogie Woogie and Pearl had one more chance to make a final impression. Boogie Woogie sang "Love the Hell Out of You" by Lewis Capaldi and Pearl belted out "I'll Stand By You" by The Pretenders. Next, the audience chose their favorite and Nick crowned a winner ... Runner-up The singer finishing in second place is Boogie Woogie. Before he revealed himself, the panelists got to open up a "Crack the Case" clue case. Boogie Woogie's case held a pink ribbon. He responded, "I lost my mom to breast cancer so I do a lot of work to raise money and awareness for breast cancer." The panelists then submitted their final guesses: Ryan Tedder (Jenny), Daniel Powter (Robin), Ed Sheeran (Ken), and Darren Criss (Rita). When Boogie took it off for America, he was revealed as the positive pop hitmaker, Andy Grammer! He stumped the panel. Winner The Season 13 champ and winner of the Golden Mask trophy is Pearl! But before she revealed herself, the panelists opened up the final "Crack the Case" clue case. Pearl's case held a pair of pants with a tag that reads, "To Pearl From Dolly." Pearl responded, "It's a pair of pants for the record books. Not only did my idol, Dolly Parton, give them to me, but I also got to perform with her while I was wearing them." The panelists then submitted their final guesses: Ann Wilson (Ken), Natalie Maines (Rita), Trisha Yearwood (Jenny), and Gretchen Wilson (Robin). When Pearl finally pulled off that shiny head of hers, she was revealed as Grammy-winning country superstar Gretchen Wilson! Robin pulled one out of the hat right at the end.
