Initially, I didn't know what to do or how to play, but my fellow gang leaders helped me, and I learnt a lot from them. I came on the show only for the love of the audience and didn't expect to win. However, now that I've won, it feels amazing.'

Nicola Peltz Reacts to Backlash for Celebrating Husband Brooklyn's Presence at Her Dad's Party Amid Beckham Family Row
Nicola Peltz is facing fresh criticism online after posting pictures of Brooklyn Beckham celebrating her billionaire father's birthday, just weeks after the couple skipped David Beckham's star-studded 50th birthday bash. The Lola actress shared moments from Nelson Peltz's 83rd birthday on Instagram, sparking fresh talk about the rumored Beckham family feud. The social media backlash Nicola Peltz posted photos on Monday showing her with Brooklyn Beckham, her father Nelson, and other relatives. She captioned the post, 'happy birthday dad! i am so lucky to be your daughter, you're the most loving and supportive father i could ever dream of. i love you more than i could ever begin to express - you're the wind beneath my wings. i loved celebrating you yesterday! thank you for always being there for us - our constant love and support.' But some Instagram followers were quick to point out that Brooklyn celebrated with Nicola's family while skipping David Beckham's birthday party in May. One comment read, 'Rubbing it in that Brooklyn skipped his dad's big party?' Here's what Nicola Peltz responded Nicola Peltz did not directly address the comments but responded subtly by liking a fan's supportive reply. One user wrote, 'The fact people are in this comment section talking bs about someone controlling a GROWN man is absurd. The guy is an adult and can make his own decisions, leave them be and stop blaming women for everything.' Nicola simply liked the comment, sending a quiet but clear message to her critics. Speculation about the Beckham family feud grew after the couple skipped David Beckham's milestone birthday in May. The rift rumors resurfaced in April when Page Six claimed Brooklyn and his brother Romeo Beckham weren't speaking due to Romeo's then-girlfriend Kim Turnbull. Gossip suggested Turnbull once dated Brooklyn, but she denied it on Instagram stories last month. 'Nothing between us has occurred further than a school friendship at age 16,' she wrote. Despite the gossip, insiders told Page Six that the claims about Romeo's ex and Brooklyn were 'nonsense.' Still, Brooklyn and Nicola's absence at David Beckham's 50th birthday added fuel to the fire. Last month, David Beckham appeared to extend an olive branch when he tagged Brooklyn while celebrating his knighthood from King Charles III. He also posted Father's Day throwback photos with Brooklyn and his other kids.

Parag Tyagi ‘stayed awake all night' after Shefali Jariwala left; missed her every moment: ‘She was not there…'
The sudden and unexpected loss of a loved one is never easy to accept or come to terms with. It's not just their immediate absence, but also the heartbreaking realisation that you will never interact with them again, that one needs to make peace with. Film-television actor Parag Tyagi is currently going through such a difficult time following the untimely and tragic demise of his wife, actor and model Shefali Jariwala. Meanwhile, one of Parag's earlier interviews has caught the attention of netizens, in which he shared how emotionally overwhelmed he was when Shefali left to participate in Bigg Boss Season 13. His words not only reflect the deep love he had for her but also raise concern for his well-being during these trying times. Opening up about how much he missed his wife while she was away for the reality show, Parag revealed that he didn't truly understand the depth of his love for Shefali until she entered the Bigg Boss house. Speaking to Times of India TV, he said that those days helped him realise just how much she meant to him, as he missed her every single moment. Recalling the emptiness he felt at home, Parag said he missed her most when something joyous happened. 'I used to be awake the entire night thinking about how to tell her. I used to share with my parents, but I have always shared everything with her, and she was not there,' he added. Proudly stating that he has no ego or issue in being known as 'Shefali Jariwala's husband', Parag emphasised the importance of supporting each other's dreams in a strong, lasting relationship. 'I have also done a lot of work, but nothing makes me happier than being addressed as Shefali's husband. It makes me proud, I am getting goosebumps right now,' he added. Shefali, who rose to fame as the 'Kaanta Laga Girl' in the early 2000s, was previously married to musician Harmeet Singh of Meet Brothers in 2004. The couple parted ways in 2009. After her separation from Harmeet, she began dating Parag Tyagi and the two eventually tied the knot in 2014. She passed away at the age of 42 on Friday (June 27) in Mumbai.
