Louisa Mak's husband's recruitment ad reveals more than intended
The revelation surfaced as Keith had posted a recruitment advertisement for a domestic helper with a detailed job description.
As reported on Mingpao, the said ad recently circulated online, showing that Keith was looking for another help on top of their long-term helper who has already been working for them for over 10 years.
Some of the requirements include experience in taking care of newborns, willing to work as a team and at least two consecutive contracts with the same employer.
He also added that they need a domestic help "to arrive in Mar/April 2025". The timing requirement - specifying the dates - effectively revealed the couple's anticipated delivery window.
It was back in November last year that Louisa revealed that she is pregnant with their first baby.
The couple, who met on the set of "Young and Restless", tied the knot in January 2024, and held their wedding reception in March the same year.

Keith Olbermann pours cold water on claims Colbert was fired for political reasons
Ex-MSNBC host Keith Olbermann has weighed in on whether Stephen Colbert was canceled by CBS for political reasons, throwing cold water on the theory he was axed for his criticism of Trump. "Sorry. That's not what happened here. If it had, they wouldn't be keeping him on until next MAY," Olbermann said in a post on X. CBS announced they'd canceled "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" Thursday, stating that the over 30-year-long franchise would come to an end in May 2026 with no subsequent host taking over following Colbert's departure. The show was previously hosted by David Letterman from 1992-2015. Olbermann authored the post in response to an X user who posted that Colbert's firing was a sign that the United States had descended into fascism. "We are officially at the 'pulling comedians off the air who criticize our dear leader' phase of fascism," the user posted over a picture of the late night host. Following the network's announcement of Colbert's ouster, numerous left-wing politicians and journalists spoke out, alleging that the talk show host was fired for political reasons, speculating that axing Colbert – a fierce critic of President Trump – was an attempt to placate White House officials amid a pending merger between CBS' parent company Paramount and Skydance. "CBS's billionaire owners pay Trump $16 million to settle a bogus lawsuit while trying to sell the network to Skydance. Stephen Colbert, an extraordinary talent and the most popular late night host, slams the deal. Days later, he's fired. Do I think this is a coincidence? NO," Vermont Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders posted on X. "If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better," Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., wrote on X. CBS settled with President Trump after he sued the network alleging election interference over a "60 Minutes" interview with his 2024 opponent former Vice President Kamala Harris which he alleged was deceptively edited. A clip from the interview, in which Harris was asked about the war in Gaza, was released on "Face the Nation" prior to the "60 Minutes" broadcast and featured the former VP delivering an answer that was widely derided as "word salad." When the interview was finally broadcast, a different, more concise response was swapped in its place. CBS, however, claimed that "The Late Show's" cancellation was due to financial reasons, saying the show lost some $40 million a year. Colbert is No. 1 in the late night timeslot among network talk show hosts (though he regularly comes behind Fox's Gutfeld), averaging around 2.4 million viewers per episode. Overall viewership for late night talk shows has steadily declined in recent years, leading to a decrease in total ad revenues. Colbert was tapped to host the "Late Show" following Letterman's retirement after he hosted the widely acclaimed "Colbert Report" on Comedy Central. Upon taking the reins of the franchise, Colbert eschewed the well-known formula of hosting a show that appeals to the broadest swath of Americans, opting instead for a highly partisan, Trump-critical program. Fox News Digital has reached out to CBS for comment. When former President Joe Biden won the 2020 election, Colbert popped champagne on air and danced, proclaiming his joy in the election result. "Ladies and gentlemen, Joe Biden did it! He's our next president! I'm so happy!" he proclaimed, adding that he cried tears of joy upon learning Trump would no longer be president.

Tristan sends his love to his fans and wants them to know how much he appreciates their loyalty and encouragement over the years,' the statement concluded. 'This support means more to him now than ever. Future updates will be shared if deemed appropriate by Tristan and his family.' He did not reveal what kind of cancer Rogers was battling.

He's made several returns to Port Charles over the decades. In 2018, he told Soap Opera Digest why he loves playing the beloved district attorney.

Rogers is no stranger to the soap scene, as he played Hunter on 'The Bold and Beautiful' in 1997 and Colin on 'Young and Restless' from 2010 to 2012, 2014 to 2017 and again in 2019. 10 Tristan Rogers, John J.

At the time, the actress, 19, wrote on X that she was 'forever grateful' for her spot on the daytime series. Earlier this month, Eva LaRue announced her exit from the series just one year after joining the beloved soap opera as Natalia Rogers-Ramirez.

'I was originally only supposed to be on the show for a couple of months,' LaRue told Soap Digest on July 1. 'And it ended up being a much longer run, which was great — and really fun because there are so many 'All My Children' actors there and so it felt like home.' Days later, Kirsten Storms revealed she is taking an extended break from 'General Hospital' after playing Maxie Jones since 2005. 'I'm very excited to be making Tennessee my home! I can't wait to return to GH, once Harper and I are settled in our new town,' the star, 41, wrote on Instagram. 'I plan on documenting as much of this new journey on my social media as I can.

Shriner retweeted the post, adding, 'I don't understand any of it, I went to get glazed donuts and coffee for the doctor!!' 10 Steve Burton (Jason) and Kelly Monaco (Sam) in a scene from 'General Hospital.'

'Well, here's the thing about a legacy like 'General Hospital,'' the actress told The Post at the time. 'Our anniversary is coming up this year. We're turning 62 this year. So, while there are definitely legacy actors who have left the show for many, you know, any number of reasons, the world of Port Charles is so big, and there are so many amazing places that the production can take the story. 'So, I think the fans have nothing to worry about. There's definitely, you know, there's always someone coming back to town,' teased James. 'There's always legacy actors being shuffled around, coming back to the show. So, you're never going to, you know, miss out on much.' 10 Kirsten Storms as Maxie Jones.

'We're all really saddened by the loss. And, to be honest, my favorite thing about Leslie is she had a really wonderful sense of humor,' James reminisced.

Fundraiser gig announced for Glasgow DJ diagnosed with untreatable brain tumour
A GIG to raise money for a legendary DJ who was diagnosed with an untreatable brain tumour is set to take place this weekend. Keith McIvor, also known as JD Twitch – one half of the Glasgow duo Optimo – announced his diagnosis last week, saying that he will be prioritising spending time with his family. Writing on Instagram, he said: 'Over the past few weeks I have received lots of enquiries about my health having missed several gigs since being admitted to the hospital. Glasgow clubbing duo Optimo 'Following extensive tests I've been diagnosed with a brain tumour and I have been told my condition is untreatable. As you can imagine, I am currently trying to process this news and prioritising spending precious time with the people I love. 'I know this may be difficult news to receive through social media, and I'm sorry if it feels sudden or impersonal.' READ MORE: Trump Organisation hold talks to discuss Open returning to Turnberry A crowdfunder to raise money for McIvor's ongoing care and access to therapies to manage and ease his symptoms was launched by his family. It has surpassed its initial target of £50,000 since it was launched, raising more than £87,500 at the time of writing. His family said the fundraiser would continue to stay open amid the "uncertainty" around the full extent of care costs. Any excess funds from the fundraiser will be shared equally between four causes: Glasgow NW Foodbank, the Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights, Brains Trust and Taki's Shelter in Crete. And on Wednesday, it was announced that a special live music event will take place this weekend at Queen's Park Arena to raise further funds. The event, taking place in collaboration with Optimo Music, will take place on Sunday and will feature sets from Tony Morris, Semispecific Ensemble and GK Machine. Originally planned by McIvor himself as a fundraiser for Glasgow NW Foodbank, the event will now also support his ongoing treatment and care. The portion of proceeds initially intended for the foodbank will still be donated as planned. Tickets begin at £0.50 and are available via the Skiddle website. There are also ticket options with a £5 or £10 donation included. READ MORE: Dress worn by Outlander character goes on display in Scottish filming location Commenting, Chet Capkiner, director of inhouse CIC at Queens Park Arena, said: "Optimo has been our spiritual home for so many of us for decades. Keith's presence and influence changed many lives – including mine. "This is a chance for us to return that care and energy, and to support him and his family when it matters most. A true musical mentor and inspiration to us all." Glasgow clubbing duo Optimo (Image: Matthew Arthur Williams) Along with Jonnie Wilkes, McIvor ran Optimo Espacio, regarded as one of the city's most loved club nights, for 13 years between 1997 and 2010 at the legendary Sub Club venue. Originally from Edinburgh, he moved to Glasgow to attend university, and began to DJ at the same time. McIvor's Optimo club nights went on to establish a reputation for its eclectic music and became one of Scotland's most popular club nights. The duo continued to DJ, playing festivals and gigs around the world, but McIvor's condition meant that he was unable to play at Optimo's recent shows, including their own festival, Watching Trees.
