Beth Broderick, 66, Shows Off Her Bikini Body While ‘Pooling Around’

Beth Broderick is glowing.

Broderick, 66, proudly showed off her bikini body while “pooling around” and enjoying some fun in the sun. The Sabrina the Teenage Witch alum put her sculpted figure on display in a white two-piece via Instagram on Monday, October 6.

In the snap, she posed in a triangle top featuring delicate straps that tied in a halter top behind her neck. The actress styled the number with low-waisted bottoms finished with bows on her hips.

In the photo, Broderick, who played Aunt Zelda in the sitcom, which aired from 1996 to 2003, leaned against a tiled pool while giving the camera a pout.

She opted for a full beat for her pool day, including a bright red lip and long lashes. Broderick teamed her Marilyn Monroe-inspired look with her platinum pixie cut parted to the side and styled in loose curls.

“The rumors are true. I have been ‘pooling’ around again!” Broderick playfully captioned her post. Her fans went wild over the swimsuit snap in the comments section.

“60s are no problem for bikinis 🙌,” one gushed. A second social media user added, “Aunt Zelda More like MOTHER Zelda 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥,” while a third commented, “Looking fantastic 🤍🤍🤍🤍.”

This isn’t the first swimsuit moment Broderick has shared as of late.

On September 22, she rocked a cherry red number while taking a dip in her pool. The piece featured halter straps and red triangle cups. She again made sure that her makeup was on point, donning bright crimson lips that perfectly matched her swimwear.

She gave the camera a soft smile while flaunting her dewy skin. Broderick complemented her ensemble with painted pastel nails and her hair blown out.

“Just for the record, older women still like to ‘pool’ around,” she captioned the post.

Broderick often talks about aging via her weekly essay “Wit and Wisdom,” which she publishes on her Substack account.

In July, she wrote, “Our ears and noses continue to grow as well. Getting older has some good things to offer. This is not one of them. Easy to spot a gal who’s had a nose job in a retirement home.”
She added, “Her’s is still a petite little ski slope of a thing, while the others have schnozzes which have developed sizably. Gravity, which is NOT our friend in these later years, will also give our noses a tug and create a bit of a hook on the end. If nature did not take things away from us, we would never agree to leave this life.”

Broderick, known to keep it real via her Substack, also shared how she’s keeping her hair healthy and thick.

“I take DIM supplements daily as well as Women’s Saw Palmetto and copious amounts of Collagen and Biotin,” she revealed. “It helps. On my head, at least, my hair is hanging in there. It is not the great swinging mop I sported when I was in my younger days, but it looks okay. And it’s gray and white, so I am sure that not many folks are looking closely at it or me for that matter, so it will do just fine.”

Christina Haack’s Son Said She Makes ‘Bad Choices’ With Men After 3rd Divorce

Christina Haack’s son Brayden got real about her taste in men after she filed for divorce from Joshua Hall in 2024.

“When we first split up, Brayden, my [now] 10-year-old, he slept in bed with me,” Haack, 42, exclusively told Us Weekly on Wednesday, October 1, while promoting her new champagne, Clé Cachée, recalling her eldest son jumping into protector mode.

Haack said Brayden, whom she shares with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa, became an “old soul” in that moment and was “speaking life into me,” telling her how “wonderful” she is.

“It was so sweet. He was just like, ‘You’re a wonderful mom, you’re a great person. You’re, like, amazing, you just make really bad choices in men,’” Haack revealed of her son’s words of wisdom. “He said, ‘Dad’s the best, but you make bad choices.’ Sorry, Tarek, he loves you obviously.”

The Christina on the Coast star, who also shares daughter Taylor, 15, with El Moussa, 44, and son Hudson, 6, with second ex-husband Ant Anstead, said her kids saw the signs that she and Hall, 45, were headed for a split well before they ended things.

“The kids would bring it up to me,” Haack remembered. “They’d be like, you know, ‘Dad and [his wife] Heather [Rae El Moussa] hold hands. Dad and Heather are cuddly, like, you guys don’t like each other. You guys never hug. You don’t hold hands, like, you don’t even look at each other like you like each other.’”

She confessed, “That’s a really sad thing to hear. And I’m like, ‘What am I doing showing them that this is normal? Like, I’m not happy, and they can see that.’ It’s such a lesson.”

Christina Haack’s Kids Are ‘Thriving’ Without Josh Hall’s ‘Negative’ Energy

Haack married Tarek in 2009. They split in 2016 and finalized their divorce two years later. Following their breakup, the pair continued to cohost HGTV’s Flip or Flop until it’s end in 2022 after 10 seasons.

Tarek moved on romantically with Heather, 38, whom he wed in October 2021. The pair share son Tristan, 2.

Haack, meanwhile, married Anstead, 46, in December 2018. After less than two years of marriage, they divorced in September 2020 and continue to coparent Hudson. Anstead even made a cameo on season 1 of Haack’s show The Flip Off with Heather and Tarek after Hall stepped away from the project amid their separation.

Haack and Hall tied the knot in October 2021 and had an official ceremony the following September. They announced their split in July 2024, and Us confirmed in May that Haack and Hall had reached a divorce settlement.

“It’s not like I missed [the red flags],” Haack told Us on Wednesday of her rocky relationship with Hall. “It’s just like whatever’s happening in my own life, and there’s a lot of chaos in this industry and world, and I think I just was swept up in so much that for whatever reason, at that time, whatever I was going through, I chose to ignore them.”

Amid all the turmoil, Haack found love again with boyfriend Christopher LaRocca. Us confirmed in January that Haack was dating LaRocca, who also resides in Orange County, California.

“Nice people still exist. We all experience it, and there can be a lot of scary individuals out there that don’t have your best interest, and especially in this world,” Haack said on Wednesday of her new partner, gushing, “So I would say I got lucky meeting him, but I definitely deserved to meet him, and he’s definitely just changed my life for the better.”

Like finding a good man, Haack has been focused on manifesting happiness in all aspects of her life since her split from Hall. One of those big projects includes the launch of her own champagne called Clé Cachée, which started as part of her vision board and is now available for purchase.

“I’m a champagne girl, and I think once you try it, you’re going to appreciate it. It’s from the Grand Cru region, which is the most prestigious region in all France, as far as grapes,” Haack told Us of her creation. “It’s a Blanc de Blancs. It is naturally sweet, so it has a very low dosage sugar content, which is less than five grams for the whole bottle. So basically, one Starburst.”

She revealed that the champagne will leave you with “no hangover” because of the sugar dosage and it’s a project she’s “super proud of.”

Haack noted that she “designed everything,” including creating the name which means “hidden key.” She explained, “[It] is all about, you know, I’m about manifesting. And it’s basically finding your hidden potential within and just celebrating.”

The TV personality added that she was “very hands-on” and traveled to France to pick the grapes, dosage and approve “the flavor, the taste, everything.” She teased, “I’m very picky, so naturally, I wanted it to be perfect.”

Christina Haack Says She Manifested ‘Real Love’ Before Meeting Boyfriend

Haack told Us that Clé Cachée is $100 a bottle compared to other bottles from the region that range from $300 to $500 each.

“I wanted to still make it affordable. I wanted to make it [for a] special occasion, but still, you know, you could drink it on a Tuesday,” she said with a laugh. “I feel like some of the champagnes I like the bottles aren’t the cutest. So, I still wanted it to be pretty, right? I want it to be decor. I love decorating bars. I want it to be just something that you could leave out. It looks nice and classy.”

Haack concluded, “It’s perfect for a girl’s night, for a date night. It’s a perfect gift. Champagne is just celebratory in general, and it always just leaves you with, like, a good vibe.”

Learn more about Clé Cachée on the official website — where you can also purchase your own bottle.

Why Charlie Hunnam Visited Murderer Ed Gein’s Grave After Filming ‘Monster’

Charlie Hunnam‘s commitment to playing Ed Gein led to him visiting the infamous murderer’s grave after filming Monster.

“[After we wrapped, my girlfriend, Morgana McNelis, said] ‘Take some time after you finish. Because when you come home, you should be ready to see me,’” Hunnam, 45, recalled on the Today show before the show’s season 3 premiere on Friday, October 3. “I’d been shooting in Chicago, I decided to stay for a week and sort of decompress so I was ready to see her when I got home. And it was about an 8-hour drive up to Wisconsin from where I was to where Ed grew up and where he’s buried.”

For Hunnam, it was a “good conclusion” to the role “to go visit his grave,” which has been unmarked since 2000 after the infamous killer’s headstone was stolen and the burial site was repeatedly vandalized.

“And say what I wanted to say to him. [I told him I] hoped we had told his story honestly at the very least, and [I] didn’t invite him to come on the journey with me moving forward,” he continued. “I was ready to say goodbye to him and that be the end.”

What Does ‘Monster’ Get Wrong About Ed Gein’s Murder Case?

Monster: The Ed Gein Story centered on the “Butcher of Plainfield,” who was convicted of one count of first-degree murder and admitted to a second killing in the 1950s. While it has been suspected that Gein was involved in multiple other crimes, he only admitted to exhuming multiple graves and fashioning grotesque keepsakes out of the bodies.

“You have to have an enormous amount of love and empathy for a character that you play to be able to inhabit them. Because as despicable as Ed was in his acts, I wanted to find the human in there,” Hunnam told Variety earlier this month about playing Gein. “I personally don’t like to be forced to confront the most bleak and sinister elements of the human condition.”

He continued: “I could certainly see the accusation being leveled at me that I was too sensitive toward him, and let him off the hook a bit too much. My hope was, although I clearly don’t understand the function of these type of stories, I understand that people are very drawn to them. I needed to bring Gein to life in as honest and human a way as possible.”

Ryan Murphy’s ‘Monster’ Season 3 Ending Explained: What Happened to Ed Gein?

Before Ryan Murphy chose Gein as the inspiration for season 3 of Monster, the criminal was the jumping off point for movies such as The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Psycho. The topic of how Gein’s crimes helped true crime evolve into a pop culture phenomenon is addressed throughout the season.

“This whole series, it turns the camera right on us,” showrunner Ian Brennan told Tudum in October. “It really matters what you look at and the images and stories you consume. They do stick with you, and they do have an impact.”

Hunnam, meanwhile, explained the main message of Monster. “Who was the monster? This poor boy who was abused his whole life then left in total isolation, suffering from undiagnosed mental illness?” he asked Tudum. “Or the legion of people who sensationalized his life for entertainment and arguably darkened the American psyche and the global psyche in the process?”

Monster is currently streaming on Netflix.

Charli XCX Hints She’s in the Studio After Rumored Taylor Swift Diss Track

Charli XCX is back in the studio amid her rumored feud with Taylor Swift.

The “Apple” singer, 33, took to X on Sunday, October 5, to share a short video taken inside a recording studio. An audio engineer could be seen sitting at a mixing board as several stringed instruments created a swelling sound, followed by two quick notes.

Charli (real name Charlotte Emma Aitchison) simply captioned the cryptic post with a text heart.

The pop star’s clip comes after the release of Swift’s 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, on October 3, featuring the song “Actually Romantic,” which many fans believe to be a diss track about Charli. The title alone may be a nod to Charli’s song “Everything Is Romantic” from her 2024 album Brat.

Inside Taylor Swift and Charli XCX’s Complete Relationship History

“I heard you call me boring Barbie when the coke’s got you brave / High-fived my ex and then said you’re glad he ghosted me,” Swift, 35, sings in the first verse. “Wrote me a song saying it makes you sick to see my face / Some people might be offended.”

In the chorus, Swift continues, “But it’s actually sweet / All the time you’ve spent on me / It’s honestly wild / All the effort you’ve put in / It’s actually romantic / I really got to hand it to you / No man has ever loved me like you do.”

Though both singers have denied the feud rumors, fans have long believed that Charli’s 2024 song “Sympathy Is a Knife” is about Swift. Charli sings, “This one girl taps my insecurities / Don’t know if it’s real or if I’m spiraling. … Don’t wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend’s show / Fingers crossed behind my back, I hope they break up quick.”

The “boyfriend” referenced in the lyric is Charli’s now-husband, George Daniel, the drummer for The 1975. Swift dated The 1975 frontman Matty Healy in 2023, leading fans to believe that she was the “girl” Charli sang about in “Sympathy Is a Knife.”

However, Charli denied that the song was about the “Opalite” singer in an August 2024 interview with New York Magazine, revealing that it was simply about her own insecurities.

“That song is about me and my feelings and my anxiety and the way my brain creates narratives and stories in my head when I feel insecure and how I don’t want to be in those situations physically when I feel self-doubt,” she explained. “Sometimes I’d look onstage [during a 1975 show] and be like, ‘Oh, my God … I’m never going to play these rooms, ever.’ That made me feel jealous. I told Matty that. And George. They were both like, ‘Shut up. What are you talking about?’”

Swift praised Charli’s talents in the same article.

“I’ve been blown away by Charli’s melodic sensibilities since I first heard ‘Stay Away’ in 2011,” she said. “Her writing is surreal and inventive, always. She just takes a song to places you wouldn’t expect it to go, and she’s been doing it consistently for over a decade. I love to see hard work like that pay off.”

Fans Think Charli XCX References Taylor Swift and Matty Healy in New Song

As for the inspiration behind “Actually Romantic,” Swift opened up about the song during Amazon Music’s “Track by Track Version” of The Life of a Showgirl.

“‘Actually Romantic’ is a song about realizing that someone else has kind of had a one-sided adversarial relationship with you that you didn’t know about,” she said without naming a specific person. “And all of a sudden they start doing too much, and they start letting you know that, actually, you’ve been living in their head rent-free and you had no idea.”

Swift continued, “And it’s presenting itself as them sort of resenting you or having a problem with you, but taking that and you just accepting it as love. And you accepting it as attention, affection, and how flattering it is that someone has made you part of their reality when you didn’t even think about this. It’s actually romantic if you really think about it.”

1,374 students benefit as Kunle Buraimoh Foundation donates learning materials to Osun schools

The Kunle Buraimoh (KB) Foundation, on Thursday, October 2, 2025, carried out its third annual back-to-school outreach as it donated exercise books and other writing materials to pupils and students across Osogbo, the Osun State capital.

A total of 1,374 students benefited from the gesture: 985 from Laaro Grammar School, Okefia; 204 from A.U.D Primary School, Sabo; and 185 from St. James Primary School, Owoope.

The initiative, according to the Foundation, aims to ease the burden on parents while promoting access to basic learning materials for children in public primary and secondary schools.

At Laaro Grammar School, where 985 students benefited, the principal, teachers, and students could not hide their excitement as they received the educational materials. They showered encomiums on the Foundation’s Chairman, Kunle Buraimoh, describing the support as timely and impactful.

Similarly, at St. James and A.U.D. Primary Schools, joy filled the air as the young pupils expressed appreciation through songs and prayers, thanking the Foundation for its continued compassion and dedication to education.

Speaking on behalf of the teaching staff, the headteachers of both primary schools commended the Foundation for its consistency and generosity in supporting the education of indigent pupils. They noted that such interventions contribute immensely to improving the learning environment and boosting pupils’ morale.

Some parents who witnessed the distribution also expressed gratitude to the Foundation, praying for the continued success of Kunle Buraimoh and his team.

Since its inception, the KB Foundation has consistently demonstrated a passion for youth empowerment and educational development through scholarships, donations, and community outreach programmes, making it one of the most consistent philanthropic organisations in Osogbo.

Tinubu declines assent to two National Assembly Bills

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has declined assent to two bills passed by the National Assembly.

Tinubu who disclosed this in a letter read by the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, during plenary, said the two bills were ‘tainted with fundamental defects.’

The Bills include the Nigerian Institute of Transport Technology (Establishment) Bill 2025 and the National Assembly Library Trust Fund (Establishment) Bill, 2025.

The President however assented to two bills, namely: The Nigeria Police Training Institute (Establishment) Bill and the Nigeria Police Trustfund (Establishment) Bill.

Also, the president nominated candidates to be considered and approved by the Senate for appointment into various federal government agencies.

Senator Natasha returns to Senate after six-month suspension

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, on Tuesday made her return to the National Assembly after serving a six-month suspension imposed by the Senate earlier this year.

The embattled lawmaker was seen on the floor of the upper chamber as plenary resumed following a 10-week recess, with Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin presiding over the session.

Akpoti-Uduaghan’s return marks the end of a controversial suspension that had sparked nationwide debate. She was suspended in March 2025 for alleged misconduct during her protest over the reassignment of her seat by Senate President Godswill Akpabio on February 20.

Following the suspension, her office was sealed off on March 6, 2025. It was recently reopened by the Deputy Director of the National Assembly Sergeant-at-Arms, Alabi Adedeji, signaling preparations for her reinstatement.

Two weeks ago, Akpoti-Uduaghan was allowed back into her office, during which she publicly criticized Akpabio, describing him as a ‘dictator.’

Book Review: ‘Leveraging Teenagehood’- A Transformative Guide to Purposeful Youth Living

Rising youth coach and author Oluwabusayo Emmanuel Adeola is set to launch his new inspirational book, ‘Leveraging Teenagehood’, on October 22, 2025, in Akure, Ondo State.

The book, published by Reflections Journal Limited, seeks to empower teenagers to live purposefully, think independently, and make a meaningful impact during the most defining years of their lives.

Described by reviewers as ‘a roadmap to self-discovery, purpose, and growth,’ Leveraging Teenagehood combines Christian values, personal reflection, and practical guidance for navigating adolescence in an age marked by distraction and pressure.

In the book, Adeola, who is also the founder of Teens Connect Africa, draws deeply from his own experiences as a teenager who struggled with uncertainty, failure, and limited guidance before finding purpose through faith, mentorship, and self-discipline.

‘I made so many mistakes as a teenager,’ he writes in the introduction. ‘But I became intentional about my life and growth, and that decision changed everything. I don’t want the next generation to repeat the same mistakes.’

The book, which spans eight practical chapters, explores themes such as identity, purpose, mindset, time management, friendships, parental relationships, and mentorship.

Each section includes reflection exercises, relatable anecdotes, and faith-based wisdom designed to help young readers understand themselves and channel their energy into meaningful goals.

The work has received glowing endorsements from several youth leaders and educators across the continent.

In her foreword, Mrs. Lucy Okafor, life coach and CEO of Lucy Inspires Network, commends Adeola for producing a guide that goes beyond theory.

‘This book is not just another guide for teenagers,’ she writes. ‘It is a heartfelt call to live with clarity and conviction in a world that often encourages the opposite. Oluwabusayo writes from experience, not theory.’

Similarly, Nomawele Njongo, South Africa-based founder of the Africa Teen Authors Book Initiative, lauds the book’s cross-continental relevance, calling it ‘an essential toolkit for every young person ready to stop waiting for the future and start building it today.’

Other endorsements from educators, editors, and teen advocates describe Leveraging Teenagehood as ‘simple yet profound,’ praising its relatable storytelling and actionable advice.

Beyond writing, Adeola has spent the past few years mentoring hundreds of young people through his non-profit, Teens Connect Africa.

His programmes, such as the ‘Career Guide Campaign’ and ‘Become More initiative,’ have trained secondary school students in personal development, leadership, and purpose discovery.

His commitment to youth empowerment has earned him several recognitions, including the Young Man of Impact Award (Deimpact Network, 2022), Outstanding Leadership Award (Creative and Innovative Foundation, 2023), Epitome of Leadership Award (Noverray Initiative, 2024), and the Global Educators Award (Global Educator Foundation Nigeria, 2024).

Adeola previously co-authored The Principles of Greatness as a teenager, and his writing continues to reflect the same passion for shaping Africa’s youth narrative.

Each chapter in Leveraging Teenagehood addresses a core principle of adolescent growth. From ‘Who Are You?’, a reflection on self-identity, to ‘You Need a Mentor,’ Adeola emphasises that teenagehood is not a period to waste but to build foundations for the future.

He challenges young readers to use time wisely, choose friends intentionally, and embrace mentorship. Quoting from Proverbs, he writes, ‘Guide your heart, for from it flows the issues of life.’

Adeola also weaves in inspiring real-life stories of teenagers like Greta Thunberg, Malala Yousafzai, and Kelvin Doe, showing how young people around the world have used their early years to create lasting impact.

Grounded in Christian principles, the book underscores that true purpose and identity can only be fully understood through faith. However, its practical tone ensures its relevance beyond religious circles, making it suitable for parents, educators, and youth mentors who work with adolescents in diverse contexts.

The language is simple, direct, and motivational-perfectly suited for its teenage audience. Adeola’s use of personal testimony makes the book more than a lecture; it reads like a conversation from an older sibling who has walked the same path and returned to guide others.

Ultimately, Leveraging Teenagehood is a clarion call to a generation at risk of losing direction in a fast-changing world. It urges young people to take charge of their future now, not later.

As Adeola writes in his conclusion: ‘Teenagehood is not a waiting room for life, it is a workshop for building the future.’

With this publication, Oluwabusayo Adeola joins a growing list of young African authors redefining youth leadership, proving that influence begins long before adulthood.
