News of Reyes' passing comes courtesy of an Instagram post written by her loved ones:

"It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our warrior," they wrote.

"She was a warrior, a brilliant person and a human being who never gave up in the face of any difficulty that came her way," the post continued.

"Sadly, she passed away to be with the Lord on March 11, 2026. We ask for your sensitivity, empathy and love toward her family and friends.

"Thank you for loving her, supporting her, showing her so much affection, and always welcoming her with open arms," the statement concluded.

Though no official cause of death has been revealed, Reyes — who had amassed hundreds of millions of followers during her short career — had been battling cancer in recent months.

Carol first hinted at her health struggles in late December of 2025.

"The most difficult chapter of my life will close," she captioned her New Year's Eve post.

"The year in which I cried the most and suffered the most will come to an end—but also the year in which I learned the most.

"A year that broke me into pieces, but that also taught me how to rebuild myself from zero. I realized that life doesn't wait, that the people you love won't always be there, and that sometimes pain is the price of loving truly.

"This year showed me how strong I can be, even when I felt like I couldn't go on anymore. And now, as I say goodbye to this year, I'm not just closing a cycle. I'm closing a version of myself.

"Because even though it hurt, I am ready to never give up again."

Sadly, Carol's condition only worsened from there.

In her final months, she continued to post glamorous beach photos from her native Colombia while never shying away from the reality of her illness.

While casual fans might have known that Reyes was sick, those who followed her journey more closely frequently wished her well and offered prayers.

Our thoughts go out to Carol the Warrior's loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.

She certainly lived up to that nickname in her final months.

Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Shannon Launches OnlyFans! What Does Mama June Think?

Reading Time: 3 minutes

We're in the wrong season, but there's a pumpkin spice joke in here somewhere.

Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon is done with Josh Efird and has already landed a new boyfriend.

She has also found a new career — or, at least, a new side hustle.

OnlyFans can change people's lives. But what does Mama June have to say?

Lauryn is an OnlyFans creator!

Earlier this week, Lauryn Shannon announced that she is launching an OnlyFans page.

Now, speaking to TMZ, she explains that this feels like the right time.

She has, she says, watched friends make "pretty good money" on the adult media subscription platform.

(Presumably, they did so without the benefit of Lauryn's reality TV fame.)

Bluntly, she quipped: "The world has seen tits and ass from everyone." 

Launching her OnlyFans account, Lauryn 'Pumpkin' Shannon opted for a bold subscription price. (Image Credit: OnlyFans)

Lauryn currently charges about $25.99 per month for OnlyFans subscribers.

That is a steep monthly price for someone who isn't doing many, many collabs with other creators.

She also admitted that she plans to stick to solo content "for now."

In the future, Lauryn hinted, she might expand her work to collaborate with other sex workers on the platform.

For now, however, it's all her.

Is June Shannon the best person to call out someone for spending someone else's money? Probably not. (Image Credit: WEtv)

What does Mama June think of this?

Also to TMZ, Mama June Shannon spoke of her daughter's OnlyFans admissions.

Some celebrity moms have followed their daughters to the platform — most notably, Denise Richards and Sami Sheen.

We hate to be the bearers of disappointing news, but June has no plans to do the same.

Additionally, June shared that she would not be doing OF in Lauryn's shoes.

Lauryn is a mother of four, and those children are all either in school or are too young to start school. June would do many, many things, but apparently this isn't one of them.

On Mama June: Family Crisis, June Shannon calls one daughter and discusses another. (Image Credit: WEtv)

However, June wants to be clear that this isn't about indifference or condemnation.

She's "not clutching her pearls," TMZ reports.

June also shared that Lauryn has had this account for some time.

(It's unclear whether she had this as a subscriber or whether she was mulling over the idea of becoming an OF creator.)

Only now is she taking it public and promoting the page.

Despite the celebration, Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon has some complex feelings about her divorce. (Image Credit: WEtv)

Will this be a successful venture?

Some of the most successful, most desired sex workers on the planet — people who have built themselves up to fame purely through letting it all hang out — charge $10 to $20 per month.

These are generally people who are doing regular collabs with other sex workers, and holding nothing back.

(Well, nothing except abiding by OnlyFans' notorious content rules that ban simple things — like posing a camera behind something to give the viewer the impression that they're peeping on the action.)

Can a 26-year-old mother of four be a success doing less while charging perhaps twice as much as the porn industry's version of household names?

Only time will tell.

Jeffrey Epstein Files Reveal New Evidence That Sex Trafficker Secretly Had a Son

Reading Time: 3 minutes

For months now, we've been hearing rumors that Jeffrey Epstein had a secret son.

The speculation began with an email from Sarah Ferguson in which she congratulated Epstein on the birth of his child.

But for a while it looked as though Ferguson had received some bad information, as there appeared to be no further mention of the child in the files.

Now, however, it looks as though at least one of Epstein's alleged victims is also of the belief that he was a father.

According to documents obtained by TMZ, a 16-year-old girl who says she was sexually assaulted by Epstein for years also revealed that he boasted about being a dad.

She claims Epstein showed her a photo of a blonde woman and bragged that she was the "perfect" mother of his child.

He allegedly also showed her a plastic mould of the woman's torso.

Elsewhere in the files, there are photos that show Epstein holding a child (whose identity has been redacted) and hugging a woman who is holding a young child (again, both non-Epstein parties have not been identified).

Obviously, very little is known about Epstein's secret family — if they even exist.

But key insights can be gleaned from the email that Ferguson wrote on the subject in 2011.

"Don't know if you're still on this bbm but have heard from The Duke that you have had a baby boy," Ferguson wrote, referring to her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, by his formal title, Duke of York.

"Even though you never kept in touch, I still am here with love, friendship, and congratualtions [sic] on your baby boy. Sarah xx."

In a later email, Ferguson chastised Epstein for failing to inform her about the child's birth.

"You have disappeared. I did not even know you were having a baby," she wrote.

As many have noted, the relationship between these two was rather complex.

Ferguson often begged Epstein for money and jobs, and he may have kept her at arm's length by feeding her misinformation.

The alleged teenage victim shared her story with the FBI in 2020, just five months after Epsrein died by suicide in his jail cell.

Epstein's child — who is a boy according to Ferguson — would likely be in his teens now.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Jack Osbourne Welcomes Baby #5 with a Name Honoring Ozzy

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Last July, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne passed away.

Since that loss, his family has struggled to cope, with daughter Kelly making headlines amidst her grief.

Ozzy's son, Jack, just welcomed a fifth child.

He and his wife gave their newborn a name that honors his late father.

On his personal YouTube channel, Jack Osbourne addresses his fans. (Image Credit: YouTube)

Welcome, Baby #5!

On Wednesday, March 11, Jack Osbourne took to his Instagram page to share a special piece of news.

He and his wife, Aree Gearhart, have welcomed their baby.

The The Osbournes alum shared a short clip, showing the newborn resting in a bassinet — possibly while still at the hospital.

"Hello, World," reads a small card near the adorable baby's head.

The video conveys plenty of information — from the date of birth to the wee baby's name.

A post shared by Jack Osbourne (@jackosbourne)

Jack and Aree welcomed their baby on March 5, 2026. That was last Thursday.

Their newborn weighed 7 pounds and 12 ounces at birth, and measured 19 inches in length.

The biggest surprise of all, however, came on the first line of the card.

Jack and Aree named their precious child Ozzy Matilda Osbourne.

Clearly, the baby's first name is a tribute to Jack's late father.

When did they conceive?

Jack first revealed that he and Aree were expecting several months ago, in December of 2025.

He shared that they'd had the chance to tell Ozzy before he died last July at the age of 76.

(With a March 5 delivery, Jack and Aree likely conceived in the middle of June of last year — meaning that they knew very early, and told Ozzy much sooner than most couples would have.)

"I think it's been partly a healthy distraction, partly healing — probably in that kind of 'full cycle' category, in a weird way," Jack told The Sun last year.

"It's very much taken energy out of the grieving side of things and parked in a bit more hopefulness," he expressed.

On a recent episode of his Hate To Break It To Ya podcast, Jack again delved into his father's passing.

There, he admitted that the rocker's death was "a surprise, for sure," despite his known health issues.

"Obviously everyone knew he was sick," Jack acknowledged.

"But we weren't expecting it to be as quick as it was," he confessed. "I think he was done."

Jack also disclosed that his father's final hours were not "dramatic."

Knowing that his fans wanted to hear from him, Jack Osbourne discussed his father's passing mere weeks after the fact. (Image Credit: YouTube)

Name tributes can be controversial

In some cultures, naming a family member after a deceased relative is bad luck — as if the child will share the adult's fate.

For others, it's almost obligatory to honor a child with a relative's name.

We suspect that this wee babe might be more likely to go by Matilda when she gets older. Or by another name altogether.

But the Ozzy name tribute is very sweet.

For now, it might be a little weird for the rest of the Osbourne family to speak of "Ozzy" in two very different contexts. But we're sure that they'll adapt.

Lord Sear Cause of Death: Eminem DJ, ‘GTA’ Franchise Star Was 53

Reading Time: 3 minutes

We have tragic news to report from the world of music today.

Lord Sear — the DJ best known for his work on Eminem's Shade 45 Sirius XM channel — has passed away.

He was just 53 years old

News of Sear's passing comes courtesy of a post on his Instagram page:

"It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Lord Sear. He was more than a voice on the radio — he was a force, a friend, and family to so many of us," reads the caption on his tribute post.

"Lord Sear's legacy in hip hop runs deep," the caption continues.

No cause of death has been revealed at this time.

After getting his start with the group Kurious in the 1990s, Sear found a wider audience with the underground hip-hop radio show "The Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito Show."

He later toured the world with Eminem on the rapper's famed Anger Management Tour, which began in the early 2000s.

Sear — whose real name was Steve Watson — clearly made quite an impression on his future boss.

He was later hired to host "The All Out Show" on Em's SiriusXM Shade 45 Channel, a post he held for several years.

Sear was also a sought-after voice actor, lending his vocal talents to the Grand Theft Auto game series (as a radio DJ, of course) and album skits for rappers like Big Pun.

News of his passing comes just one day after the death of Eminem's grandmother, Betty Hixson.

Across social media today, thousands of hip hop fans are paying tribute to a man who rubbed shoulders with the greats and left an indelible mark on the culture.

"Sear was one of the greatest people to be around, I will never forget how he made me laugh on our tour together," Eminem tweeted.

"Our time on @Shade45 together was always some of my favorite interviews. He made the world a better place and I'm gonna seriously miss that. Rest in peace Lil Trey aka @LordSear!!!"

"A proud member of the CM family, he first made his mark along side hip-hop artist Kurious, before going on to the legendary Stretch and Bobbito show, touring the world on Eminem's Anger Management Tour, and spending over 20 years as a cornerstone of the Shade 45 family — he helped shape the culture at every level," reads the tribute on Sear's page.

Our thoughts go out to Lord Sear's loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.

Dak Prescott Called Off Wedding After Fiancee Caught Him Cheating: Report

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Earlier this week, we reported on the surprising news that Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane Ramos had called off their wedding.

The decision was clearly an abrupt one, coming just one month before the Dallas Cowboys QB and the certified wine and beverage expert were set to exchange vows in Lake Como, Italy.

Now, we have new information about what may have led to the split.

At first, it was widely rumored that Dak and Sarah called it quits over a prenup disagreement.

But Sarah has taken to social media to insist that that's not the case:

"This had nothing to do with a prenup. I hope we can put that rumor to rest now," she wrote on Instagram, according to Page Six.

She also posted pics of the destination bachelor-bachelorette party that she and Dak threw for themselves.

"I truly believe you can get through anything in life as long as you have really great friends. I love these girls so much," she captioned the pics.

Yes, this breakup was so sudden that it took place after the bachelor-bachelorette party.

So what happened? Well, according to Page Six, Ramos became fed up with Prescott's infidelity, and she issued him an ultimatum.

The site reports that Ramos had been "aware of Prescott's alleged history of communicating with other women during their almost-three-year relationship," but "she stayed with him for the sake of their family."

Unfortunately, the situation seems to have come to a head just as Dak and Sarah were preparing to tie the knot.

A source tells the outlet that Prescott was "using incognito social media profiles to send inappropriate messages to multiple women and ex-flings."

Ramos reportedly confronted Dak about the messages, and when she didn't like his response, she called the whole thing off.

Earlier this week, the pair sent an email to all 250 guests who had planned to attend their destination wedding on April 10:

"It is with heavy hearts that we privately inform our attendees that we have made the very difficult decision to cancel our wedding," reads the email obtained by TMZ.

"We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and we welcome your prayers."

The message was signed, "Sarah Jane Ramos and Dak Prescott."

Prescott and Ramos began dating in May 2023.

They welcomed their first daughter, Margaret, in February 2024 and got engaged eight months later. They welcomed their second daughter, Aurora, in May 2025.

We'll have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Rick Harrison: Can Everyone Butt Out of Corey’s Medical Bills? This is Family …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Early this years, Pawn Stars fans got some rough news.

Corey Harrison was hospitalized following a brutal motorcycle injury.

(There were photos and they are not for the faint of heart.)

Now, Rick is asking for privacy as he and Big Hoss work out the ensuing medical bills.

'We appreciate everyone's support and concern, but …'

Rick would strongly prefer that he and his son, Corey, be able to figure out the money stuff without any outside involvement.

"Corey and I will work this out by talking to each other," he told TMZ.

"And not," he continued, by talking to "the media."

The Pawn Stars star expressed: "We appreciate everyone's support and concern."

He added: "But feel it is in the best interest of all to concentrate on Corey's recovery at this time."

In January of 2026, Corey was in a terrifying motorcycle accident.

The harrowing injuries landed him in the hospital.

Corey admitted at the time that he had borrowed money from his father and from friends to cover the ensuing hospital bills.

(Our healthcare system is a nightmare and a split-second accident can cause financial ruin — even for those lucky enough to make a full recovery.)

A GoFundMe arose to help Corey cover any remaining bills — and ideally to help him pay back money that he had borrowed.

Speaking on 'In Depth With Graham Bensinger,' Rick Harrison speaks on emotional highs and lows in his life. (Image Credit: YouTube)

There's 'no repayment schedule'

Prior to this chat with TMZ, Rick had previously told the tabloid that, to his knowledge, he already "paid all of Corey's medical bills."

This, he said, was "long before [Corey] put the GoFundMe out."

Rick did affirm that he would appreciate it if his son eventually gets him back.

However, he emphasized that "there is no repayment schedule in place."

Does Corey know that?

To hear Corey tell it — yes, he also spoke to TMZ — he fully expects that his dad fully expects repayment.

"If he decided I don't have to pay him back the money, then happy birthday to me," Corey quipped.

He then admitted that, given what their dynamic is like, that seems unlikely.

Corey expects to pay back his dad, it seems.

And he's going to get some help to do it.

As of March 11, 2026, Corey Harrison's GoFundMe was at well past $13k. (Image Credit: GoFundMe)

How is the GoFundMe progressing?

The goal for Corey's GoFundMe is $16,000.

Thus far, the crowdfunding effort has raised over $13,500 — and counting.

Look, family dynamics can be complex. Money complicates things further.

We wish Corey a speedy and full recovery.

It sounds like that's Rick's priority, too.
