Pitch Perfect actress Rebel Wilson has been charged in the U.K. after insurance lapsed on her $67,000 Audi while she stayed in Los Angeles awaiting the birth of her second child. The 46-year-old Sydney-born actress and comedian pleaded not guilty, according to court papers obtained by the Press Association. Wilson wrote in to explain that pregnancy complications involving her wife, fashion designer Ramona Agruma, delayed their return to London. “During this entire time, the vehicle was not used at all and was not kept on the road,” she wrote. She said she discovered the lapse after returning on May 28 and bought insurance before anyone drove the SUV. “Please accept our sincerest apologies, we are not U.K. residents and I was unaware of the requirement to keep a car insured.” Britain’s Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency said Wilson failed to respond to a fixed penalty offer, and it then opted to bring a criminal prosecution. The court referred the case to an open hearing on November 30, which Wilson could be asked to attend.

A mother and daughter were killed in a suspected bear attack in British Columbia. The daughter’s brother, Matt Balcarras, reported Jenny Balcarras, 48, and daughter Selah Reed, 19, missing in Bella Coola on November 1 after Reed didn’t show up for an online meet-up the night before. Police and rescue crews found their vehicle at a trailhead before finding Balcarras by Monday afternoon, with evidence of animal involvement. Police found Reed a day later. Although the valley is largely considered remote, Matt Balcarras said the trail was “not remote” and “very close to their house.” This comes almost one year after a similar attack on a field trip of 20 students and teachers that had stopped for lunch, injuring three kids and one adult. Balcarras was a mother of four and a grandmother who had just moved to Bella Coola over the summer. Reed, her youngest child, came to the valley to work as an art therapist, according to Matt Balcarras. “They were not naive city folks. They were strong women living the life,” he said. Conservationists are investigating the area to find and trap the bear responsible and kill it due to the inability to relocate an aggressive bear that has lost its natural fear of humans.

John Frieda, celebrity hairstylist and beauty entrepreneur, died Tuesday at 75. Frieda’s death was announced on his salon’s official Instagram page.

“John was more than a mentor to us; he was a true icon of the hair industry,” the statement read. “His talent and passion touched so many, and his legacy will live on in every single one of us.”

Frieda was born in the London suburbs to hairdresser Isidore Frieda and Hannah Mary Docherty. He began working shifts at his father’s shop before joining the House of Leonard, a high-fashion salon in London.

According to People, Frieda quickly became salon owner Lewis Leonard’s assistant and started working with publications like British Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar.

In 1976, a 25-year-old Frieda opened his own salon. About a decade later, he launched the iconic beauty brand, Frizz-Ease. Frieda also worked for numerous celebrities over his career, including Princess Diana, Twiggy, Jackie Onassis, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Nicole Kidman. He amassed a net worth of more than $200 million.

He married Scottish pop singer Lulu in 1977; they had a son together. After their divorce, he married Frances Avery Agnelli, widow of Fiat heir Giovanni Alberto Agnelli, and had two more children and a stepdaughter.

Two college students found dead after disappearing during a Colorado mountain hike died from multiple blunt force injuries after falling a significant distance while rappelling, authorities have confirmed. Kaden Matsuda, 19, and Jackson Donlon, 20, were recovered near each other in a basin on West Apostle Mountain on October 29, three days after they were reported missing. An autopsy determined both men died from “multiple blunt force injuries,” according to a joint statement released November 3 by the Chaffee County sheriff’s and coroner’s offices. Investigators believe the friends fell after one of their climbing anchors suffered a “catastrophic failure of unknown cause.” Both died instantly, officials said. Although a snowstorm occurred around the time of the incident, authorities said weather was not a direct contributing factor. Sheriff Andy Rohrich said investigators were relieved to know neither had suffered before their deaths. “While their lives were far too short, they spent their final moments together surrounded by the majestic beauty of Chaffee County’s high peaks that they loved. There is also relief knowing neither of them suffered,” Rohrich said.

Billionaire record executive David Geffen, 83, is back with his 33-year-old ex-husband just months after their messy divorce. Page Six reports that Geffen and former model Donovan Michaels were spotted together last month on Geffen’s 454-foot mega-yacht. “The heart wants what the heart wants,” an insider told the outlet. The duo first connected online via the dating website SeekingArrangements.com in 2016. They married in 2023. After Geffen filed for divorce in May 2025, Michaels sued, claiming he had reneged on a verbal promise to provide lifelong financial support. Michaels’ lawsuit also accused Geffen of subjecting him to painful laser hair removal treatments and providing him with illicit drugs. The complaint alleges that, when Michaels entered the 12 Step Program of Alcoholics Anonymous, it became a source of conflict between the couple. “Geffen did not want a healthier Michaels. He wanted control and submission,” the suit said. According to Page Six, Geffen has denied all the allegations.

A federal judge has ordered Iowa officials to allow The Satanic Temple of Iowa to hold a holiday event in the state Capitol rotunda in December. The November 2 preliminary injunction grants the group access while its lawsuit continues. The American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa and other attorneys filed the lawsuit in August after repeated refusals to grant the temple permission to hold what the ACLU calls a “family-friendly winter holiday event.” The lawsuit alleges violations of free speech, religious exercise, and equal protection, as other religious and civic groups were granted access. State officials raised concerns that costumes could frighten children and that sticks carried as props could become weapons. Chief U.S. District Judge Stephanie Rose rejected those justifications, as participants and props remain subject to ordinary Capitol security screening. “State officials have made it clear that they denied The Satanic Temple permission… because they disagreed with their religious viewpoint,” ACLU of Iowa attorney Shefali Aurora said Monday. The ruling does not end the case. The group is also seeking a permanent injunction and damages.

A survivor of the University of Idaho murders has asked a judge to keep her face blurred in video and photo evidence released to the public, fearing for her safety. Dylan Mortensen, 23, is one of two surviving roommates of the four students killed in their Moscow home in 2022. A judge approved releasing footage and images that could show her face in October after a request from EWU Media, a true-crime content company. In a letter to the court, Mortensen said her family has moved nine times in four years amid online threats, accusations of involvement in the murders, and threats of in-person confrontation. She said she uses an alias to protect her identity and often introduces herself to strangers under the pseudonym while avoiding photographs and going places alone. “Reporters and strangers… have shown up outside of our homes, followed family members, and invaded our privacy in ways that have made it difficult to feel safe,” she wrote. The accusations stem from Mortensen’s account that she saw a man inside the home around 4 a.m., but texted surviving roommate Bethany Funke rather than immediately calling police. Police were called nearly eight hours later, when they found the bodies of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Bryan Kohberger was convicted in July 2025 and is serving four life sentences.

One of three triplets from the Taylor Red country singing girl group has died after about a four-year-long battle with breast cancer. Nicole Taylor passed away on September 28 at age 35, the sisters revealed on Monday. The triplets gained a following of 13 million TikTok followers and about 16 million YouTube subscribers and went on to build brand partnerships with Sonic Drive-In, Crocs, Lipton, and Skittles. Her sisters Nika and Natalie talked about their loss in a YouTube video. The sisters said Nicole is “at peace and no longer suffering,” but it’s “really hard” to talk about because they’re still “processing.” According to them, Nicole was diagnosed in 2022 with “very aggressive” Stage 3 breast cancer. They said Nicole stayed “fierce,” pushing everyone to “have fun and not live in fear and hopelessness,” and continued CrossFit while receiving chemotherapy. They credit their church’s prayers for her strength during this difficult time. “Nicole, the oldest of us three sisters, will be greatly missed. She was our leader and our best friend,” Nika and Natalie wrote in a statement. “We are heartbroken, but we know she is in Heaven and will see her again.”

King Charles has said Britain’s role in the slave trade “fills my heart with horror and my soul with profound sorrow” in a major speech—but did not offer a formal apology. The monarch has been under pressure to show contrition this week after the U.K. prime minister reignited the debate about a state apology for transatlantic slavery. However, Charles has chosen to empathize rather than apologize during his Caribbean tour. While in Antigua and Barbuda opening the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) on Tuesday, he said: “The transatlantic trade in enslaved persons still casts a shadow over these islands and other members of our Commonwealth. As I have said before, that shameful chapter of history is one that fills my heart with horror and my soul with the most profound personal sorrow.” He also said that “we can, however, learn from the past” even if “we cannot change the actions” of our forebears. The king’s office previously said that it wasn’t his place to apologize on behalf of the government. Although British Prime Minister Andy Burnham has opened the door to “discussions about the past” and said he was “open” to “calls for an apology,” he has not delivered his own—and has ruled out financial reparations. CHOGM is a biennial summit of leaders from the 56 member countries of the Commonwealth, a group of nations that recognize Charles as their symbolic head. Most are former British colonies.

A 24-year-old New York City Marathon runner died after collapsing two miles from the finish line. Rachel Apa was running her first marathon on Sunday to raise money for Parkinson’s disease research, in honor of her late grandfather. “My grandfather was one of my role models growing up,” she wrote on LinkedIn. “He taught me to stay active, push my limits, and embrace challenges.” The former Bucknell University field hockey player had been training for months. Her father told The New York Times that she was in “perfect health, perfect shape.” Apa collapsed near Mile 24, in Central Park, and was rushed to the hospital, where she died from rhabdomyolysis, a rare injury where muscles break down rapidly and leak a toxic protein into the bloodstream. The New York Road Runners told The Times that the last time a runner at the marathon died after a medical incident was in 2024.
