Lucas replied in the comments section, stating, 'I love you! Easily one of the greatest days of my life. I am so so grateful.'

In a second post, the blushing bride shared a close-up of herself and her partner on their special day.
'We are grateful to the many people who helped us get to this moment in the Catholic Church,' Ruffalo penned. 'I am so thankful for Father Winters at the parish I grew up in, and Sister Angelica at the archdiocese of Los Angeles- as well as several others within the archdiocese.'
She added, 'We also absolutely couldn't have done this without our stellar wedding planning team who coordinated with the Vatican. Thank you for making our wedding day so beautiful and easy 🙏🏼 Thank you P & J team.'

The 'Palm Royale' star and news anchor began dating in 2022, before getting engaged in June 2024.
Lucas popped the question while on a romantic getaway in Italy last summer.
'Almost 2 years ago this fall, and with no expectations, Josh walked into my life,' Ruffalo wrote on Instagram at the time, 'and we knew almost immediately we had each found our person in a way we've never experienced—on every level.'

'This was the easiest and best question I've ever answered,' she continued. 'So, here's to forever with my love, my best friend. I can't wait to keep living this life with you.'
Lucas echoed his partner's sentiments, writing in his own post, 'For the last 2 years in Every Way and Every Day this beautiful soul has made me and my life better, deeper, and more whole.'
'I am so grateful and thrilled she said 'Yes.' I WAY love you, Brianna. Thank you to our families and all the people and places that made this come true. I am absolutely aware I got crazy lucky.'

Lucas was previously married to Jessica Clencin Henriquez from 2012 to 2014. The exes share son Noah, 13.
In 2022, the actor spoke about having his mini-me on set in Montana while filming the western 'Yellowstone.'
'To bring him on set and have him there, we had a great day, a rather, I must say, humbling day for me,' Lucas told Entertainment Tonight. 'It was the scene early in this season where I knock a guy out.'

On the series, which ran for five seasons from 2018 to 2024, the 'Firm' star played the younger version of Kevin Costner's John Dutton.
'My son was sitting at the monitor,' Lucas continued 'I walked up to the guy to punch him and, frankly, I tripped. My hat fell off and I dropped my gun. My son screamed from the monitor. He was like, 'Dad, you're a fool!''
Although Lucas has largely kept his son out of the spotlight, he did share in 2019 that Noah's first kiss was with a fellow A-lister's daughter.
Noah shared a smooch with Luna, Uma Thurman's daughter, while their parents were worked together in the 2017 Broadway show, 'The Parisian Woman.'

'Backstage, [Noah and Luna] had their little playroom, and one day we opened the playroom and they both like popped up from behind the couch, both of them. And they were both obviously so nervous,' Lucas explained while on 'The Late Late Show with James Corden.' 'Luna, Uma's daughter, walked out, and I took Noah and was like, 'What's going on?''
'He was like, 'I think, I guess I just had my first kiss,'' the actor added. 'Think about that — your first kiss is backstage behind a couch in a Broadway theater.'

Couple Save for Wedding Then Senior Dog Got Sick—They Had To Make A Choice
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When their 15-year-old Chihuahua mix Elvis fell ill, Heather and her fiancé knew exactly what to do. Instead of planning their wedding, Heather and her partner redirected the money to save their dog's life. As Elvis began suffering seizures Heather, 29, from Maine rushed him to the vet. "We've had multiple ER visits and appointments with his normal doctor to try and figure out why he's passing out/having seizures. This weekend, he stayed at the emergency vet, and then we brought him back the night we got him back because he had two seizures again," Heather told Newsweek. Elvis, who also has early-stage kidney disease, suffered three episodes in a single night, prompting Heather to rush him to the ER again. Despite extensive testing—including X-rays, EKGs, ultrasounds, and a heart monitor—the cause remains unclear. Heather and her fiancé with their senior dog. Heather and her fiancé with their senior dog. @ "They kept going back from neurology to cardiology to try and figure out which one is the issue. We still don't exactly know what the main issue is, it could just be a factor of everything being a little off," Heather said. But thankfully, after a few days care from veterinarians, Elvis was ready to come home. "We picked him up last night and let me say the king is back," Heather said, delighted. "We're still going to take it easy, but I could not be happier at this moment." The couple had planned a low-key elopement this summer, with Elvis front and center. "I haven't nailed down the wedding plan yet. I know Elvis is older, and I want him to be a part of it. We have a photoshoot scheduled in August with him. We had planned to elope at the end of this summer and have a low-key, backyard event with immediate family, so that way Elvis could be a guaranteed part of it," Heather said.

"I'll go into debt over my dog but not over a wedding. I think the plan now is just to figure out something small with Elvis there and plan a bigger celebration at some point later," she said, although the couple did not share the full cost of the vet bill. According to a poll by Talker Research for the insurance company MetLife, the average pet owner spent $2,085.60 on their animals in 2024. Despite pet owners increasingly seeing their pets as part of the family, a survey by PetSmart Charities found that 52 percent of owners have skipped or declined medical care for their pet. Of those, 71 percent cite cost as the key factor, whether because they could not afford it, they did not think it was worth the cost, or both. Amber Batteiger, from Embrace Pet Insurance previously told Newsweek: "Our average individual claim cost in 2024 was $445, but pet emergencies can cost tens of thousands of dollars." Because of this, she recommended pet owners have an emergency fund for pet medical issues, aiming for around $2,000 per pet. The couple shared how they spent their wedding fund on saving their pet, with the video on Instagram gaining more than 40,000 views since being posted earlier this week. "Would give everything I have for this little boy," the caption says, while the on-screen text reads: "When you spend your whole wedding budget saving your 15 year old dog." "Elvis deserves the whole world," said one commenter. While another wrote: "They are worth every single penny." "I've always said Elvis comes first; he lives a better life than me because I owe him my life. I got him in high school, my sister, who passed away actually picked him out... I was the first person he let hold, and it was soulmates from there," Heather said. "I'm not kidding when I say I love him more than anything in the world (maybe fiancé excluded)."

I tested the Fujifilm X half for two weeks — and some might think this one feature is a gimmick but it's my favorite
Do you like film photography? Me too. Do you enjoy populating your Instagram feed with film photos? Me too! There's something charming about analog photography, and in recent years, we've seen a rise in its popularity, a trend that's making a comeback (like oversized blazers and baggy jeans). It's then only natural that camera manufacturers get with the times and make modern film cameras. Fujifilm has done just that... but in a way none of us expected. I'm talking about the Fujifilm X half, a one-of-a-kind camera that's unlike any other in its current lineup, and it goes off the beaten track by combining digital and film photography. The Fujifilm X half is an interesting camera as it's nothing like any other camera in the brand's lineup. It's small and compact and it features a 17.7MP 1-inch sensor that actually takes lovely photos. You get access to Fuji's 13 most popular film simulation recipes and filters, and the camera has a dedicated Film Camera Mode which doesn't let you see photos until you connect it to your phone. Long battery life is the cherry on top of the cake. What do I mean by that, you ask? Well, the X half takes regular photos like any digital camera but it also has a dedicated Film Camera Mode which emulates the feeling of analog. When I spent a couple hours with the camera pre-launch, a couple Tom's Guide readers pointed out that this was gimmick. Now that I've reviewed the camera, I say: so what? It's fun, it's so much fun, and I'm here to tell you why. Toggling Film Camera Mode on the Fujifilm X half is a piece of cake. There are two touchscreen displays on the back: the rounded, vertical touchscreen let's you swap between 13 film simulation recipes and several filters, while the rectangular 4x3 screen gives you access to the camera's settings and gallery. To enable Film Camera Mode, simply swipe down on the rectangular screen and tap on it. You then select your roll (36 shots, for instance) and film simulation or filter, adjusting ISO and et voilà! The screen displays a shot counter and you'll need to use the lever on the right-hand side to advance the roll — as you would on a traditional film camera. Also, like other film cameras, you won't be able to see the photos you've taken until you exhaust the roll, connect the camera to your smartphone and use the X half app to 'develop' the film. And you know what? I had a lot of fun with this. Watching your 'film roll' load on your phone and the little animation that shows every photo 'developing' is throughly enjoyable. Analog photography's fundamentals apply here too. Some photos turn out great, some photos are unusable and some are imperfect, and I love that. The X half's photos turn out lovely with a film-life effects (thanks to the film sims), and you can increase the grain effect too. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. I've loved testing the Fujifilm X half. I think it's a nifty little camera (literally, it's so small) for anyone who wants access to Fuji's fantastic film simulation recipes and filters, and wants to take a no-frills camera to a concert, festival or while traveling. But purists will have you believing it's a toy camera and it isn't worth the money. Look, I get it. It isn't really film photography. The X half isn't the cheapest either, retailing for $849 / £690. Its sensor takes only 17MP photos, and video is limited to FHD/48p. No, this isn't a stacked camera when it comes to pure imaging capabilities, but why does everything need to be? Fujifilm's ethos here is that specs aren't always everything, and I see that. It isn't always about how many megapixels you have at your disposal or whether the camera has in-body image stabilization. Sometimes, and this time especially, it's about a stripped back camera that even a child could use. The X half is pure fun, nothing more, nothing less.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle mocked for second time in ‘Family Guy' episode: ‘Like all of your wives are so much better?'
'Family Guy' is at it again. The animated show mocked Prince Harry and Meghan Markle a second time in its most recent episode, two years after it first took a jab at the royal couple. Advertisement In the July 17 episode, 'Twain's World,' in which characters Brian and Stewie (both voiced by creator Seth MacFarlane) travel back in time, the talking dog compares the couple to some of history's worst events. After Stewie warns Brian that taking a certain action while traveling through the past could 'change the course of history,' Brian answers, 'You always say that, but doesn't history pretty much suck?' Then, using the comedy rule of threes, he mentions Hitler and the Crusades before Stewie quips, 'Prince Harry marrying Meghan Markle.' In the next moment, the show cuts to one of its signature cutaway gags with Harry sitting on a couch watching the episode. Advertisement 'Again?' he complains of the joke, before turning toward the camera with his hands on his hips to say, 'Oh, like all of your wives are so much better?' 'Family Guy,' which is known for not pulling punches when it comes to its pop culture digs, first took aim at the Sussexes in 2023. 6 'Family Guy' mocked Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in a recent episode. Family Guy/FOX In that episode, main character Peter Griffin, also voiced by MacFarlane, sits in a bar with friends pondering how to get back money he is owed when he jokes that he'll 'go it alone, just like Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.' Advertisement The scene then cuts to cartoon versions of Harry and Meghan poolside as a butler approaches with an envelope. The butler says, 'Sir, your millions from Netflix for … no one knows what.' 6 The July 17th episode titled 'Twain's World' showed a cartoon of Prince Harry on the couch, shocked that the show joked about him again. Family Guy/FOX Prince Harry waves him away, saying, 'Put it with the rest of them.' Advertisement Markle then gets a notification on her phone and declares, 'Babe, time to do our daily $250,000 sponsored Instagram post for Del Taco.' The animated prince sighs and says, 'I shouldn't have left the made-up nonsense.' Animated comedy 'South Park' also made fun of the couple in a 2023 episode, 'The Worldwide Privacy Tour.' 6 The couple found themselves the butt of the joke in a 2023 episode of the series, in which their money-hungry ways were mercilessly mocked by the animated show. FOX 6 'Family Guy' first took aim at the Sussexes in 2023. Getty Images Described as royalty from Canada, they are depicted throughout the episode as simultaneously demanding privacy while seeking attention, appearing on talk shows and stages around the world. Prince Harry's memoir even got a satirical new title on the show, changed from 'Spare' to 'WAAGH.' The fictional couple decided to move to South Park to convince people they are 'really serious about wanting to be normal,' soon unloading their private jet and moving into a house across the street from character Kyle Broflovski. Advertisement Kyle is routinely distracted by them and complains to his friends at one point, 'I'm sick of hearing about them! But I can't get away from them. They're everywhere!' 6 The pair were brutally mocked in a 2023 South Park episode over their decision to move across the pond in a desperate bid for privacy. Comedy Central 6 Prince Harry spoke at an event with HALO CEO James Cowan on Wednesday. AP Advertisement The Canadian royalty eventually visit a branding agency, which teases that 'victim' is part of their brand. Though they never addressed it publicly, a source told The Spectator that Markle had been 'upset and overwhelmed' by the episode and was 'annoyed by 'South Park' but refuses to watch it all.' Representatives for Seth MacFarlane and the Sussexes did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
