"Yesterday we said goodbye to my beloved husband, cherished friend, and one of the greatest actors of our time," she said, before adding, "Bob passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by love and comfort."

The actor was an Oscar winner, having received the golden statuette for his 1983 movieTender Mercies.

Luciana, in her tribute to her husband, added that Duvall "gave everything to his characters and to the truth of the human spirit they represented."

Duvall was born in San Diego, California, in 1931. His father was a rear admiral in the US Navy, leading Duvall and his two brothers to be raised in Annapolis, Maryland, near the Naval Academy.

Duvall's father expected him to follow in his footsteps, but he chose to carve his own path.

"I was terrible at everything but acting. I could barely get through school," the actor toldPeoplemagazine in 1977.

Duvall joined the Army after high school and served in Korea, but when he returned home, his parents encouraged him to pursue his passion.

Duvall studied drama at Principia College in Illinois before moving to New York to study under Sanford Meisner at New York's Neighborhood Playhouse. His classmates included Gene Hackman, James Caan, and Dustin Hoffman.

"To all my fans, have a happy Thanksgiving and a great year coming up," the actor said in a Facebook clip in November 2025. "God bless."

Duvall's final social media post, meanwhile, was a Facebook message on February 3 about his 2003 filmSecondhand Lions, starring Haley Joel Osment and Michael Caine.

"One day while filmingSecondhand Lions, the lion got out," Duvall joked just days before his passing. "Had he turned in my direction, I wouldn't be here today!"

Duvall had celebrated his milestone birthday on January 5 with a video clip that included pictures from his childhood as well as more recent footage. His wife put the video together.

Actor Ted Lange still has fond memories of the time thatDiahann Carrollappeared on a 1977 episode of his show,The Love Boat.

Lange played bartender Isaac Watson on all nine seasons of the ABC dramedy, which aired until 1986, and was he ever excited — perhaps too excited — to share a moment with his leading lady.

"I kissed Diahann Carroll about 15 times before she realized I was messing up on purpose," Lange said on theStill Here Hollywoodpodcasthosted by Steve Kmetko. "So then she said, 'Hey, hey, cut that out!'"

Lange said that he immediately apologized for his behavior.

"You're just so beautiful," he recalled telling Carroll.

"And she could kiss." Lange said, before laughing. "That's my claim to fame!"

More seriously, he said that the Oscar nominee, who later appeared on series includingA Different World,Grey's Anatomy, andWhite Collar, had been "a delight."

The kissing took place when the long-running show was still a freshman. He and Carroll shared the screen in only the fifth episode of season 1, in which Isaac finds himself romancing his favorite singer, Roxy Blue, who was played by the actress.

Carroll, was already familiar to TV audiences by the time she appeared onThe Love Boat. Most significantly, she had starred on the groundbreaking sitcomJulia, which depicted a Black, widowed nurse raising her son alone, from 1968 to 1971. (She received her second Emmy nomination for the part; her first was for a 1962 episode of police proceduralNaked City.)

The veteran actressdied in 2019of cancer. She was 84.

Dee Snidermay be retiring from stage, but the rocker is still alive and kicking.

The formerTwisted Sisterlead singer, who made waves earlier this month after resigning from the band due to a "series of health challenges," addressed speculation about his condition during a Feb. 14 appearance on his radio show"The House of Hair."

"I'm not dying!" Snider, 70, said. "No, not never; I mean, we're all dying, but not immediately."

In aFeb. 5 statement, Twisted Sister said shows between April 25 in Sao Paulo and through the summer were canceled following the "sudden and unexpected resignation" of Snider. The tour would've been the first for the reunited band in a decade.

In a statement of his own at the time, Snider explained that a "lifetime of legendarily aggressive performing" had taken a toll on his physical health, adding that he had been suffering from degenerative arthritis. "The idea of slowing down is unacceptable to me," he wrote. "I'd rather walk away than be a shadow of my former self."

Twisted Sister cancels reunion:Band scraps shows as Dee Snider announces health issues

Snider said on "The House of Hair" that since the announcement of his departure, "the rumors have run wild that I am on my death bed."

"I just can't do those things that I did in my 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and even 60s, alright? Otherwise, I'm alive and well. I'm enjoying life," Snider said. "You won't see me on the stage kicking [butt] like I used to because that will mess me up."

Snider also thanked fans for "all the love and care and worry" following his resignation from the iconic glam metal band.

"It was crazy, the amount of people. The outpouring was beautiful; thank you very much for cheering me on," the singer said. "I'm OK. I just can't do that anymore."

Snider joined Twisted Sister in 1976, helping the fledgling rock group define its heavy metal sound and lively performance style. The band made a name for itself on the New York club circuit in the late '70s, even selling out the New York Palladium prior to signing a record deal.

Twister Sister found mainstream success with its 1984 album "Stay Hungry," which spawned the hits "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock." The band's androgynous fashion style, consisting of heavy makeup and bold stage outfits, helped epitomize the hair metal scene of the 1980s.

Snider shared that he will continue to host "The House of Hair" along with other creative projects, including directing a movie. Echoing his earlier statement, the singer said, "I don't want you to see me up there being less than you expect me to be."

"If you've got memories of the great shows that I did, that's what I want to leave you with," Snider concluded. "I went out rockin', I'm still rockin' here. I ain't stopping. I got a lot of life to live. My dad's 95 and still kicking, so I'm expecting to be around for a long time. ... Don't worry about old Dee."

NEED TO KNOW

• Meg King's son Cooper became trapped inside a claw machine in Missouri on Saturday, Feb. 7

• She had "glanced" away for just seconds when Cooper, 2, climbed inside to play with the toy balls

• "We were like 'Cooper, try to go back down,' and he was just shaking his head," said King of the incident

A toddler was rescued from inside a claw machine after somehow climbing inside to play while at a recreational center in Missouri.

On Saturday, Feb. 7, Meg King brought her two-year-old son, Cooper, to the Soccer Dome in Webster Grove to watch his brother play. She told local news outletFirst Alert 4that she briefly looked away while Cooper was pretending to play with a claw machine.

Moments later, she heard someone yelling that he had somehow gotten inside and was playing with the toy balls.

"If anyone knew my son Cooper, they would totally understand that he would do something like this," said King, per First Alert 4. "I literally glanced over there. He was pretending to play with the claw machine. I looked away for, I would say, maybe 15 seconds."

King said Cooper was "laughing" and "throwing balls everywhere," while blissfully unaware that he had gotten himself trapped inside the device.

She rushed to call 911 after trying and failing to guide Cooper on how to climb out of the machine.

"We were like 'Cooper, try to go back down,' and he was just shaking his head," King told First Alert 4.

Officers from the local police and fire department arrived at the scene within minutes. However, it wasn't until someone who worked for the vending company showed up with a key that Cooper was released from the machine.

Margaret King via Storyful

Footage and photos shared online show Cooper playing with the toys inside the claw machine as first responders were stumped about how to get him out. He appeared "perfectly fine, safe and having a ball," King told Storyful.

Since going viral on social media, King said commenters have asked why she didn't try to use the claw to get Cooper out of the machine.

"I was going to comment back that I didn't have enough change since he used it all," she joked, per First Alert 4.

"In today's world, everyone needs someone funny on their TV and what's not funny about a 2-year-old playing in a claw machine?" King concluded.

Russia Navalny Anniversary

Navalnydiedin an Arctic penal colony on Feb. 16, 2024, while serving a 19-year sentence that many believed to be politically motivated. His death at the age of 47 left the Russian opposition leaderless and divided, struggling to build an effective or united front without one of its most visible and charismatic figures.

On the second anniversary of Navalny's death, we look at the latest investigation into its cause and the continuing political repercussions, both within Russia and beyond.

Across Russia, Navalny's supporters pay their respects

Navalny's mother,Lyudmila Navalnaya, and his mother-in-law, Alla Abrosimova, were among the mourners laying flowers on his grave. A mound of bouquets rose above the heavy drifts of snow that blanketed Moscow's Borisovsky Cemetery.

Representatives from several European embassies also paid their respects, watched by a conspicuously high security presence. Later, a small choir gathered to sing by Navalny's graveside.

Addressing the crowd, Lyudmila Navalnaya restated her belief that her son waskilled by the Russian authorities, a scenario which has also been backed by several European countries in recent days. "We knew that our son did not simply die in prison," she said. "He was murdered."

The Kremlin has denied the allegations, saying that Navalny died of natural causes.

Flowers were also laid at the memorial to the victims of political repression in St Petersburg. Access to the site was later blocked with temporary fences, local news outlets reported.

European nations believe Navalny was poisoned

The anniversary coincides with the release of a joint statement by five European countries, which said that Navalny was poisoned by the Kremlin with a rare and lethal toxin found in the skin of poison dart frogs.

The foreign ministries of the U.K., France, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands said on Saturday that analysis in European labs of samples taken from Navalny's body "conclusively confirmed the presence of epibatidine." The neurotoxin secreted by dart frogs in South America is not found naturally in Russia, they said.

A joint statement said: "Russia had the means, motive and opportunity to administer this poison."

In a written tribute to Navalny on Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron also linked the Kremlin with the opposition leader's death.

"Two years ago, the world learned of the death of Alexei Navalny. I pay tribute to his memory," Macron wrote on social media. "I said then that I believed his death said everything about the Kremlin's weakness and its fear of any opponent. It is now clear that this death was premeditated.

"Truth always prevails, while we await justice to do the same."

Moscow has vehemently denied its involvement in Navalny's death, saying that the politician had become unwell after going for a walk.

When asked about the allegations by journalists on Monday, presidential spokesperson said that the Kremlin does "not accept such accusations."

"We consider them biased and unfounded. In fact, we resolutely reject them," he said.

Saturday's announcement came as Navalny's widow, Yulia Navalnaya, attended theMunich Security Conferencein Germany. She said she had been "certain from the first day" that her husband had been poisoned, "but now there is proof."

"Putin killed Alexei with a chemical weapon," she wrote on social media, describing the Russian leader as "a murderer" who "must be held accountable."

Navalny was the target of an earlier poisoning in 2020, with a nerve agent in an attack he blamed on the Kremlin, which always denied involvement. His family and allies fought to have him flown to Germany for treatment and recovery. Five months later, he returned to Russia, where hewas immediately arrestedand imprisoned forthe last three yearsof his life.

Russia's opposition is struggling to start a new chapter

Navalny's closest allies, as well as otherkey members of Russia's opposition, now continue their fight from exile.

Many have been handed lengthy prison sentences in absentia in Russia and are unable to return home. Some have been designated "terrorists and extremists" by the authorities, a designation that was also applied to Navalny in January 2022.

Yet Russia's opposition has failed to form a united front and a clear plan of action against the Kremlin. Instead, rival groups have traded accusations that some see as efforts to discredit each other and vie for influence.

In one small victory for opposition activists, Europe's leading human rights body, PACE, announced in late January the creation of a new body — the Platform for Dialogue with Russian Democratic Forces — tasked with giving opposition Russians a voice and a formal platform to engage European lawmakers.

It has been heralded as a victory for anti-war Russians, but also attracted criticism as the body was not elected democratically. Members ofNavalny's anti-corruption organizationare also absent from the group

In a statement to mark Navalny's death, Russian members of the Council of Europe's human rights body, PACE, said that Navalny's death was "an inevitable link in a chain of systemic crimes by the Kremlin regime against its own citizens and the citizens of foreign states."

"Alexei Navalny gave his life for a free Russia," the statement said. "We are obliged to ensure that his death was not in vain."
