In 2023, Warner told PEOPLE of the show, "I know I can speak for all the cast when I say The Cosby Show is something that we are all still very proud of." "We share a unique experience that keeps us lovingly bonded no matter how much time goes between seeing or hearing from each other." Warner did, of course, acknowledge how the show's legacy had changed given the allegations made against Cosby, 88, who was convicted of sexual assault in 2018 but later had the charge overturned in 2021, only for five more women to accuse him of sexual assault. "Regardless of how some people may feel about the show now, I'm still proud of the legacy and having been a part of such an iconic show that had such a profound impact on — first and foremost, Black culture — but also American culture," Warner said.

His latest venture was a podcast, , that he launched with two others as a means of breaking down barriers to mental health in the Black community. Last June, he launched the podcast with cohosts Weusi Baraka and Candace Kelley, and he told PEOPLE it was a space where he could be his 'most vulnerable.' 'It's been an interesting experience for me, because it's a place where I feel safe enough to be able to be as vulnerable as I allow myself to be,' he said. 'When we talk about the Black community, we tend to speak of it as a monolith when the reality is there are so many different facets of the Black community, and we wanted to have a space where we can really explore, discuss, and acknowledge all of those different aspects," he said at the time.

Molly-Mae Hague complains about £86k motorhome holiday that left her 'having a breakdown' - after her sister Zoe's Bali trip fiasco
Molly-Mae Hague has shared her candid complaints about a recent £86,000 motorhome holiday her family went on - after Tommy Fury said their daughter Bambi shouldn't be spoilt with five star trips. The influencer and businesswoman, 26, recently went on a family trip with Tommy and their two-year-old the Isle of Man. But in her latest YouTube vlog Molly-Mae opened up about some of the more difficult parts of the holiday including navigating travel delays with a toddler. It comes after Molly-Mae's sister Zoe was recently mocked by fans for leaving Bali after just 48 hours because it didn't live up to her expectations. Molly-Mae's trip comes after last month Tommy, also 26, insisted that Bambi shouldn't be 'spoilt' with 'five star hotels and business class flights' when they go away on family holidays - and so decided to buy a motorhome for more wholesome trips. The boxer ended up purchasing a swanky Elddis Avalon 255 which retails at £86,995. But Molly-Mae documented the trip in her video as she explained: 'Tommy has bought a motorhome and we spent our first weekend in the motorhome this weekend. 'Obviously, being us, we went in feet first and decided to go to the Isle of Man. 'Tommy's family were spending the weekend in the Isle of Man. I was feeling spontaneous so we literally booked the ferry to the Isle of Man an hour before we needed to leave. 'We'd never used the motorhome before, we needed to pack it up, sort Bambi, I just had this wave of 'you only live once, have a bit of fun'. 'Bambi doesn't need to be so perfectly routine every day, she's not a newborn anymore. 'I've got so stuck in my ways with the fact that her routine is her routine and I don't really steer away from it. 'I'm not gonna feel bad for that because that is what works for me and that is what works for Bambi and Tommy, so that's fine.' She then added of when things started to go wrong: 'So anyway, booked the ferry, packed the motorhome up and nearly didn't make the ferry but that's another story and then there was a two hour delay. 'This ferry, which was already gonna get us in at 11:30pm, which was already severely triggering me because Bambi goes to bed at 7pm, was not fine. It was giving me a prime example as to why the routine works for us. 'It was one of those moments where strangers come up to you and are like 'can I help? Is there anything I can do?' 'She was screaming that much for four hours straight. 'The boat basically had a malfunction and it wouldn't move for like two hours so we had a huge delay. 'She was so, so, so overtired and overstimulated - Bambi is so routine, she is the opposite of flexible.' And when they arrived things continued to go downhill, as she said: 'We managed to get to the Isle of Man at 1:30am in the morning. 'We didn't know where we were, what we were doing, we were going to a different campsite to Tommy's family. It was just a lot. 'We had to make our bed out of this sofa, I was like 'I'm really out of my depth, I'm struggling'. 'The next day, Bambi was so tired, she was just screaming, literally screaming, so, so unhappy. 'Me and Tommy were looking at each other like 'what were we thinking?. I was having a breakdown.' She went on in the vlog: 'Bear in mind this motorhome of Tommy's is his pride and joy, he's obsessed with it…I kid you not, the next day he was like 'I'm selling it, the minute we get home I'm putting it up for sale, I hate this motorhome.' 'It wasn't even the motorhome's fault. For our first time, stupid move.' They even considered getting an early ferry home but once they met up with Tyson Fury and his wife Paris, things improved. She said: 'We were actually going to get on a ferry that day to come home because we were so out of our depth, we couldn't do it. 'But then, when we met up with them, we were like 'no, we're gonna stick it out, we can do this.' Last month Tommy reflected on some of their lavish trips away saying he recently bought the campervan so they can have more 'normal' holidays. Speaking to Eddie Hall on his podcast, The Good, The Bad & The Beast, Tommy said: 'Having a daughter, Bambi, is everything in my life. She's what I work for. She's what I fight for. 'I don't even buy anything for myself anymore. It's all going away. Today's world is tough because you don't wanna spoil your children, but then it's hard to not, in a way. 'I've just bought – and it's coming in two weeks – a massive RV type thing. I just said to myself, 'She can't take business class flights every time, that ain't the real world.' 'I didn't go on a plane until I was 17! It was a Flybe flight and the propeller nearly broke. But Bambi's got more air miles than me now, and she's two and a half.' He added: 'I want her to know the meaning of normal, which is, you know, a nice camping holiday, driving to the lake. 'Not staying in five star hotels, not going business class flights, not doing that sometimes - and that's okay. 'Yeah, so I think she's getting to an age now where she's understanding more, and that as a father I introduce them sort of holidays, it's very important.' Molly-Mae's latest vlog also comes after her sister Zoe came under fire for complaining about a recent trip too. Molly-Mae's influencer sister was recently mocked by fans for leaving Bali after just 48 hours because it didn't live up to her expectations. Instead she and her husband Danny made a last minute decision to fly to Dubai instead after Zoe, 28, took to social media to admit 'something wasn't quite right'. The fitness influencer had planned the trip to Indonesia with her husband Danny to celebrate their first wedding anniversary. And despite staying in a huge sea view room at the Radisson Blu, a five-star hotel, they decided to leave early and jet to Dubai instead. Zoe explained that Bali looks better on social media than in real life, as influencers make it look luxurious, despite it being a developing country. In a YouTube video, Zoe told the camera: 'Since landing in Bali, something for us wasn't quite right. The fitness influencer had planned the trip to Indonesia with her husband Danny to celebrate their first wedding anniversary 'We came here with high expectations because we had seen on social media that everyone was having such a lovely time. Lovely places to eat and beaches, and lovely gyms and coffee shops. 'But I don't think the reality of Bali is shown much at all, and I do think it is down to a lot of influencers posting the more luxury side of things.' She added: 'Before joining the army, I spent five months travelling South East Asia. I did Thailand, Vietnam, China, Hong Kong, I did a lot and spent time in these countries. But there is something very different about Bali. 'We got told Uluwatu where we are now is one of the best places to go, so if this is one of the better places, I'm not sure where the other places are like. 'I wasn't going to sit down and say anything, but people want to know.' Danny then joined the video and said: 'You either go on holiday to travel and experience culture or you want to go away and relax.' Zoe continued: 'Yeah, and we could have got a flight tomorrow as today is our anniversary, but time is precious and we just want to get out, and why delay it. 'We missed the mark, maybe we didn't do our own research, maybe it is our own fault. I did a lot of research though. 'I think it is just personal preference, and our preference was that this isn't for us, and we are making the executive decision to go enjoy our anniversary somewhere we know that we love and can relax and can drink the water.' Fans were divided in the comment section, with many claiming they loved Bali and asking for specific reasons why she didn't like it. 'I find this really surprising seeing as you travelled this part of the world. Everywhere there is like this - the 5* resorts are social media worthy but ultimately it's a developing area of the world and lots of the people there live in poverty.'; 'That is such a shame you didn't have a good experience:( Bali is a truly magical place with incredible people! But it is a poor country and I think people forget that and expect it to be like Dubai when that isn't the reality. Hope you have a good time in Dubai.'; 'I'm interested to know what exactly you didn't like about it? You didn't really go into specifics? I travelled there last year and loved it!'; Others agreed with Zoe, adding: I'm just home from backpacking Australia, Bali, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore and I can hands down agree with the insta vs reality with Bali!! We tried to enjoy it as much as we could but it is 100% portrayed sooo differently by influencers,' And despite staying in a huge sea view room at the Radisson Blu, a five-star hotel, they decided to leave early and jet to Dubai instead 'Why is everyone hating? Bali isn't for everyone, they arrived and didn't like it? Why would they waste time & money somewhere they're not enjoying?' In 2019, Zoe's sister Molly-Mae shared with fans that she 'fell in love with Bali' as she shared a series of stunning snaps to Instagram. Zoe later shared a photo dump on Instagram, showcasing her lavish Dubai trip after leaving Bali. The couple stayed at Atlantis The Royal, with rooms starting from around £290 per night during July, which is considered low season. In peak season, rooms can cost £1,570 a night. Zoe shared on Instagram: 'Danny surprised me with a stat at @atlantistheroyal which I couldn't believe!!!

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shows off her incredible figure in a white bikini as she posts rare family snaps with her fiance Jason Statham and their kids during lavish Positano boat trip
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley showed off her incredible figure as she shared an array of sun-soaked snaps from her family trip to Positano, Italy. The model, 38, took to Instagram on Friday to give a rare insight into her family life with her fiancé Jason Statham and their kids - son Jack, eight, and daughter Isabella, three. The family enjoying a luxury day relaxing on a yacht and Rosie looked radiant as she posed up a storm for an array of holiday snaps. In one jaw-dropping shot, she showed off her incredible figure in a chic white bikini bra and matching trousers. Rosie also put her washboard abs on display as she relaxed in the crystal clear ocean while she enjoyed some downtime. She was also every inch the doting mother as she cuddled up to Isabella while she also enjoyed some fun activities in the son with Jack. Rosie also posted an adorable photograph of actor Jason, 57, sharing a hug with their two children. He sweetly cuddled them both on a sofa in the lavish vessel before he took Isabella on a jet ski and enjoyed a swim in the ocean himself. The action star proved himself to be every inch the daredevil as he also jumped head first off the top of the boat, perfecting a dive into the ocean. The family has been vacationing in the sun-soaked location in the southern coast of Italy for her brother Toby's wedding to his partner Noa. They were staying at five-star hotel Villa Treville, which boasts stunning views of the Amalfi Coast. Rooms start at £3,416 per night, which makes it a luxury place suitable for the stars. The high-profile couple seemed to enjoy some special family time together during the summer holidays. Rosie and Jason have been together since 2009 and got engaged in January 2016. The model revealed they had taken their relationship to the next level when she flashed her impressive diamond ring at the Golden Globes that year. The model, who grew up in Devon, recently revealed why she returned to the UK in 2020 and explained that it was always 'the plan' to raise her children in the UK. She told The Times: 'We love the schools, the education. They're growing up British with their little British accents, which was important for us, and we have a great support system here. 'Jay's parents live up the road and see the kids most days, my family come to visit every six or eight weeks.' Rosie said her kids are having a childhood not dissimilar to her own, even spending large amounts of time in Devon where she grew up. The mum, who only shares the occasional snap of her children online, added: 'In the summer we go down to Devon and our children have the same experiences running around on the farm that I had growing up, and it's very special.' While the pair have been together since 2010, and despite getting engaged in 2016 and welcoming two children, they don't feel the need to tie the knot just yet. According to a source close to the couple, they are on the 'same page' when it comes to their relationship. 'Jason might be 20 years older than Rosie but they are on the same page with each other in so many aspects of their lives,' the source told

I spent 3 days in Paris with my grandparents. The trip became less about seeing the city and more about seeing them.
During my semester abroad, I spent three days in Paris with my grandparents and their friends. We mixed structure with spontaneity, and I enjoyed seeing the city through their eyes. I learned so much about my grandparents from observing them during the trip. When I decided to study abroad in Ireland in 2024, I expected lots of pubs, great music, rainy days, and a fair share of homesickness. What I didn't expect was that one of the best parts of my semester would be a three-day trip to Paris — with my grandparents. Shortly after I'd arranged my semester abroad, I learned my grandparents would be in Europe at the same time as me. Though most of their trip would be spent on a river cruise, they'd have a few free days in Paris, and I immediately knew I had to meet them there. My grandparents were excited but also a bit nervous. They'd traveled plenty of times before, but this would be their first time in Paris, and they had little experience visiting countries where English isn't the primary language. Plus, they were traveling with more than 50 people around their age (my grandparents were 73 years old at the time), most of whom they didn't know. So, they were worried I might not like traveling with "the old folks." Little did they know, they had nothing to worry about. I enjoyed slowing down and embracing a mix of structure and spontaneity Leading up to the trip, my grandparents and I decided to plan at least one activity each day to provide some structure but leave the rest of our time open to wander. We also chose to make balancing time with their friend group and each other a priority. Initially, they worried this arrangement might slow me down or cause me to do less in the city, but I found it allowed me to appreciate where I was and savor our moments together. Often, the three of us would have breakfast together and then meet up with the group for sightseeing in the afternoon. Traveling with an older group meant I made a couple of accommodations I wouldn't have normally made when traveling solo, such as using ride-hailing services instead of walking or relying on public transit. This was definitely more expensive, but it was nice not having to grapple with the stress of navigating an unfamiliar city's transit system, and we felt it made it easier for all of us to stay together. Throughout the trip, I even found myself slowing down to take in small moments, such as a man playing his violin on our way to the Arc de Triomphe. I also stopped to take pictures of my grandparents' friends during the day. One of my favorite memories was walking through Sacré-Cœur Basilica, taking in the views of Paris, and wandering the Montmartre district, popping into a café for coffee and spending time in local shops. I've always tried to slow down and travel with intention, but my grandparents gave me the nudge I needed to actually follow through. It wasn't that they literally moved slowly; it was that they had the wisdom to know there was no need to rush. That mindset quietly seeped into me, and I was grateful for it when we opted to hire a tour guide to walk us through the Louvre. I was able to have a greater appreciation for the art than I think I would've if we'd just winged it on our own. Another highlight was a girls' dinner I had with my grandma and her friends. I got to hear all of their stories from when they were my age, and watching them joke around and make friends with the waiter was both hilarious and endearing. They were all so encouraging of my travels, telling me to continue seeking out new places and experiences. It was fun to see new places through each other's eyes There's a well-known adage that you don't really know a person until you travel with them. I constantly found myself watching my grandparents throughout the trip to see what architecture caught their eye or what paintings and sculptures interested them at the Louvre. It was also interesting to see how they interacted with their friends. Though we've always been close, I now know that my grandparents are more adventurous than they're given credit for. I know that my grandpa appreciates a good red wine and that my grandma loves a whiskey sour. I know that my grandpa and I both think comfortable silence is underrated. And I know that my grandma and I like to have a sweet treat in the morning to accompany our coffee. I think my grandparents may have learned a few things from me, too, including the French skills I'd been practicing in college and how to use Uber and eSIMs. Travel has always helped me learn about myself, but I'm so grateful to have walked away from this trip knowing even more about — and feeling even closer to — my grandparents.
