Manuel Masalva had just arrived in Dubai from the Philippines for vacation when things took a sudden and severe turn.Instagram | Manuel Masalva”Narcos: Mexico” actor Manuel Masalva is lucky to be alive, and he knows it. The 34-year-old star, known for playing Tijuana cartel enforcer Ramón Arellano Félix in the Netflix hit series, was placed into a medically-induced coma in early April after a terrifying health emergency overseas. According to his manager, Manuel Masalva had just arrived in Dubai from the Philippines for vacation when things took a sudden and severe turn. ‘Narcos’ Star Nearly Dies From Infection Abroad Instagram | Manuel Masalva “(After) about two days in Dubai, Masalva began to feel internal discomfort and pain which increased by the day,” his manager, Jaramillo Espinosa, told The Los Angeles Times earlier this year. By late March, doctors performed emergency surgery and discovered that a bacterial infection had aggressively spread to his lungs. That’s when they made the critical decision to induce a coma to try to save his life. “Doctors have said that Manuel is responding to the treatment to attack the bacteria, and little by little his body is getting stronger,” Masalva’s agent told Entertainment Weekly at the time. “There is daily encouraging news, and it will be a matter of days or a couple of weeks before his health condition allows him to be taken off sedation and regain consciousness. For now, it is a matter of waiting, as it is a slow process.” Manuel Masalva Speaks Out After 3-Month Health Battle Instagram | Manuel Masalva Now, after more than three months, Masalva is finally sharing his journey, and he’s calling it a second chance from above. “I’m healing. I want to deeply thank each and every one of you for the support you’ve given me and continue to give me, throughout the ages,” his statement, translated from Spanish, began. “I believe more than ever that unity is strength. This has just begun, there is still a long way to go, but I feel good, strong, reborn, and accompanied.” Manuel Masalva Reflects On Awakening After 105 Days In A Coma Instagram | Manuel Masalva The actor, still recovering abroad, got emotional as he reflected on the journey so far. “God has given us a new chance at life,” he said. “God has given me a new life. 105 days today, but I’m awake and it’s been raining light ever since.” He went on to describe the experience of waking up in a place far from home, surrounded by love and support. “What a place, I have been reborn, here, in another culture that has surpassed us in love and spirituality.” Still processing the trauma, Masalva admitted, “I don’t know if I really understand all of this or just a part of it. It has been an eternity, and there are still some parts missing.” But one thing he’s certain of? Gratitude. “I owe you my life; without you and the hand of God, this would not be real,” he wrote. Manuel Masalva’s Family Raises $58K For Life-Saving Care Instagram | Manuel Masalva Following his hospitalization earlier this year, the actor’s family launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the massive international medical costs, raising over 1 million pesos, equivalent to just under $58,000. Masalva’s longtime friend and fellow actor Mario Morán also shared a plea for support in early April. “My brother is fighting for his life far from home. I want to ask for your help in this very difficult moment,” Morán said in a video. “The medical costs are huge, and in a country where everything is even more difficult. Any help, however small it may seem, can make a difference in this difficult moment. If you are able to help, I would thank you with all of my heart.” Manuel Masalva is now awake, healing, and taking life one grateful step at a time. ‘Narcos: Mexico’ Explores The Origins Of A War   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Mᥲᥒᥙᥱᥣ Mᥲsᥲᥣvᥲ (@manuelmasalva) Masalva has appeared in over a dozen film and television projects, including “Narcos: Mexico,” a dramatized series centered around Mexico’s drug trade.’ The series delves into the origins of Mexico’s modern drug war, beginning in the early 1980s when small, fragmented marijuana operations dominated the drug trade. It follows the rise of the Guadalajara Cartel, led by Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo (played by Diego Luna), who unites rival territories, known as plazas, to form a powerful and organized drug empire. Meanwhile, DEA agent Kiki Camarena (Michael Peña) relocates his family to Guadalajara, only to find himself caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse. After Camarena’s brutal murder, the series shifts focus to agent Walt Breslin, who leads a covert DEA team into Mexico to bring Gallardo and his network to justice. The show, which wrapped after three seasons in 2021, also starred Diego Luna, Michael Peña, and Tenoch Huerta Mejía.

Pettis teamed the top with matching bottoms boasting a small piece of fabric, which managed to cover the necessary areas. The front side dipped so low on her waist, allowing the beauty to showcase much of her taut tummy and chiseled abs. Meanwhile, the high leg cuts exposed plenty of skin, while helping her legs look longer.

However, it did not work. “I never booked a single audition with straight hair, which I think just is a testament of embracing your natural features and what makes you special,” explained Pettis, who starred alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson on “The Game Plan.”

Before the Jonas Brothers an epic comeback in pop music history, they shocked the world with their sudden breakup in 2013.

Before the Jonas Brothers made one of the most successful comeback stories in pop music history, they shocked the world with their sudden breakup in 2013.

While fans were left heartbroken, the decision to split wasn’t made lightly, and according to the brothers, it was years in the making.

Now, Kevin Jonas is opening up about hitting rock bottom before the Jonas Brothers’ epic comeback, and how losing nearly everything taught him lessons he never wanted to learn.

Kevin Jonas Says He Lost Nearly Everything During Jonas Brothers Hiatus

The 37-year-old guitarist and oldest of the Jonas Brothers recently appeared on “The School of Greatness” podcast with Lewis Howes, where he revealed that a string of failed business ventures wiped out most of his wealth during the band’s six-year hiatus.

“I lost most of it, like, down to the one 10% left,” Kevin admitted, recalling the financial hit he took in 2016.

During the band’s break, Kevin stayed busy launching several entrepreneurial efforts, including a residential development company called JonasWerner, a food discovery app called Yood, and a partnership with video-sharing platform We Heart It. But not all ventures were successful, and one in particular left him financially drained.

“I invested in a bunch of property and doing other things, and I was building at the time and, sadly, it just wasn’t the right partnership if you know what I’m saying,” he said. “I can’t really get too much into it.

“

Kevin Calls The Band’s Reunion A ‘Second Shot At Life’

The experience was humbling, but ultimately transformative.

“The sad part of it is I’ve learned a lot of lesson in that,” Kevin shared. “And thankfully for life in general, we had a second shot and bite at the apple with the band coming back together, and actually it was kind of fortuitous in a way, I learned this lesson.”

“[I] never wanted to learn it, but I did,” he continued. “But then, at the same time, [I] re-evaluated how to approach life from that perspective and looking to the future, and at the same time [I] was able to really feel honored that we could have a second shot at it.”

Unlike his brothers Nick and Joe, Kevin is also a full-time girl dad, raising daughters Alena, 11, and Valentina, 8, with his wife, Danielle Deleasa, whom he met in 2007 while vacationing in the Bahamas.

Kevin Jonas Compares Jonas Brothers To A Startup

While Kevin once stood at the edge of financial ruin, today he’s back in the spotlight with his brothers, and seeing their journey through a new lens.

“I look at a band like ourselves as a startup,” he explained. “You start in your garage, you’re making music, you build your product, you go out, you get an investor. My dad was our lead investor. He supports you. You start to go on the road, and all of a sudden, you get a second investment, and that’s the label, and then you have distribution.”

With 18.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify and over 20 million records sold worldwide, the Jonas Brothers are far from finished.

“So, it’s nice to be able to have teammates with these guys and our management team that has been with us for so long,” Kevin said. “And I think we’re a good unit now, and sometimes it takes time to make decisions, and I think that’s okay.

“

Why The Band Broke Up

The trio officially called it quits in October 2013.

Just days before they were set to launch a major fall tour, the band abruptly canceled all dates, sparking speculation. A spokesperson later confirmed the worst, citing a “deep rift within the band” and “creative differences.”

The truth was even more personal. Nick, the youngest of the three, was the one who pulled the trigger.

“I was feeling kind of trapped,” Nick admitted during a “Good Morning America” interview after the split. “I needed to share my heart with my brothers.”

The group had been together for nearly a decade, and while they found massive success as a Disney-backed pop band, the creative and personal tensions were bubbling under the surface. Each brother was beginning to outgrow the group, and their visions for the future no longer aligned.

After Going Their Separate Ways, The Jonas Brothers Reunited With A No. 1 Hit

Following the breakup, each brother went their own way.

Nick launched a successful solo career with hits like “Jealous” and acting roles in “Kingdom” and “Jumanji.”

Joe formed the band DNCE and saw chart success with “Cake by the Ocean”.

Kevin leaned into entrepreneurship and fatherhood, stepping away from the spotlight to raise his growing family.

After nearly six years apart, the Jonas Brothers stunned fans by reuniting in 2019 with the surprise release of “Sucker”. The track debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, a first for the band, and marked the start of their “Happiness Begins” era.

Suri Cruise, whose father, Tom Cruise, boasts a multimillion-dollar fortune, has shown that she is staying grounded.

Suri Cruise, whose father, Tom Cruise, boasts a multimillion-dollar fortune, has shown that she is staying grounded.

The 19-year-old was recently spotted riding the NYC subway, just like everyday commuters, after returning home from her university in Pittsburgh.

Last year, it was reported that Suri Cruise gained access to her father, Tom Cruise’s, substantial trust fund. However, the reports were later refuted by her mom, Katie Holmes, in a post on Instagram.

Suri Cruise’s Casual NYC Outing After Returning Home From University

Living far from the glitz and glamour of her famous father, Tom Cruise, Suri opted for a humble subway ride in NYC after returning from college in Pittsburgh, seemingly proving she has a “normal” life despite the actor’s $600 million net worth.

For the outing, the 19-year-old went for a sporty look, fitting for the sunny weather of the day.

According to photos obtained by the Daily Mail, she donned a light grey cropped T-shirt with an asymmetrical neckline, with one sleeve casually slipped off her shoulder. Suri paired the top with high-waisted, dark-colored leggings featuring mesh panel details on the lower legs.

On her feet were colorful high-top sneakers with a retro design, complemented by thick, light-green crew socks that reached above her ankles.

The sporty vibe extended to her choice of bag, as she carried a navy-blue tote with thin straps.

She completed the casual look by pulling her hair back into a messy ponytail, which subtly signaled that this was a relaxed day out.

Is Tom Cruise’s Daughter A Millionaire?

Last year, the Daily Mail reported that Suri is also worth millions in her own right, after gaining access to a significant portion of an alleged trust fund.

The trust fund was said to have been established by her estranged father as “part of the divorce deal” he reached with Suri’s mother, Katie Holmes, when they separated in 2012.

It was also reported that the teenager will gain full access in her thirties, and it was set up this way to keep her from getting “overwhelmed’ by her newfound wealth.

The Trust Fund Reports Were Refuted By Suri’s Mother, Katie Holmes

However, after the news went viral, Holmes refuted the claims in a post on her Instagram page.

“Completely false,” the actress penned boldly on a screenshot of the article. “Daily Mail, you can stop making stuff up.” She also expressed her frustration with the outlet in the caption, writing, “Enough.”

Following the post, fans supported the actress for calling out the outlet over its claims.

“Only you know the truth… and that’s what counts. We love you, and believe you, that’s for sure,” one wrote.”

“Way to stand up for your daughter, Katie! I can’t imagine it’s easy, but you’re doing great! The media needs to leave kids alone,” another individual commented.

Katie Holmes Once Spoke About Protecting Her Daughter

Holmes’ reaction to the reports about the trust fund showed that she was staying true to her promise to protect her daughter from negative media coverage.

During an interview with Glamour in April 2023, the actress spoke candidly about this desire and hinted that it stemmed from the fact that her daughter had been visible from a young age.

“What has been really important for me with my daughter, because she was so visible at a young age, is I really like to protect her,” Holmes told the news outlet at the time.

“I’m very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent,” she further remarked. “She’s an incredible person.”

Suri Cruise Stopped Using Tom Cruise’s Last Name

As for Suri’s relationship with her father, the two have been estranged since his split from Holmes.

Last year, she seemingly chose to cut all ties with him by dropping his last name and adopting her mother’s middle name, Noelle.

The decision, which came as a surprise to many, was reportedly made by Suri as a tribute to her mother, who has been her primary caregiver for most of her life.

“She is showing praise for her mother by using her middle name,” an insider told Page Six, adding that Suri “wants her own identity” to live by, one that is not connected to her absent father.

The teenager has already been seen using the name in public, although it remains unclear whether the name change has been made legal.

It was first spotted on the casting sheet for her high school play, “The Addams Family: A New Musical,” where she starred as Morticia Addams. Additionally, during her graduation ceremony from LaGuardia High School, the event pamphlet also featured her name.

It was also reported that the playbill for “Head Over Heels” on Broadway, in which she had a role, listed her as “Suri Noelle.”

A source confirmed the diamond gem was an engagement ring, telling PEOPLE all about King and Sosa’s blossoming relationship. “She is very close with his family and was staying with his parents after she moved out of her Los Angeles apartment earlier this year,” they claimed. How The Actress Lost Her Los Angeles Apartment   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Jaime King (@jaime_king) Sosa is undoubtedly King’s knight in shining armour for housing her with his parents following her eviction from her Los Angeles apartment. The Blast covered the incident in March, reporting that the TV personality owed over $42,000 in unpaid rent. King signed a lease for the property in April 2023, agreeing to pay $10,145 monthly. However, her landlord dragged her to court for failing to make payments in January 2025. The plaintiff slammed her as an unlawful tenant for breaching the terms of their agreement and locked King out of the apartment. The pair eventually settled, with King vowing to leave the apartment in mint condition by March 22, 2025, and hand over her keys. During the case, the actress’s attorney argued that she failed to pay due to the Los Angeles wildfires and the exhausting custody drama with her ex-husband. King Reportedly Struggled Financially Amid Her Custody Battle   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Jaime King (@jaime_king) The Blast reported that a source alleged that King was forced to downsize her living quarters after moving out of her Los Angeles apartment. They claimed the change stemmed from her years-long financial struggles, which worsened amid the custody battle for her two children. King welcomed sons James and Leo during her marriage to Newman but lost custody of the boys early this year for failing to complete a six-month rehab program. The judge granted her supervised visitation rights while her ex-husband received sole physical custody. The former couple shall share legal custody of their sons; however, Newman was granted tie-breaking authority. This meant the filmmaker had the final say in decisions if he and King were at an impasse. An insider alleged the outcome broke the mother’s heart, noting she was “devastated and embarrassed.” What The ‘Hart of Dixie’ Star Said About Her Ordeals   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Jaime King (@jaime_king) King broke her silence about the custody loss during an appearance on the “Whine Down with Jana Kramer” podcast. She got candid about her feelings with the host, describing the experience as “terrifying” and expressing her dissatisfaction with the child custody system. The former child model emphasized that she was unprepared for the shocking fate that awaited her after marrying at a young age. She explained that when she said her vows to Newman, she believed they would be together forever, but reality was nothing like what she had hoped for. King accused her ex-husband of maliciously painting their relationship in a false light during their legal battle, noting it was emotionally and financially draining to fight against his alleged lies. Nonetheless, The Blast shared that she was determined to change the unfair system that betrayed her expectations. Inside Jaime King’s Divorce From Kyle Newman OConnor / AFF-USA.com / MEGA King ended her over-decade marriage to Newman in 2020 when she filed for divorce. Her decision sparked a years-long battle that ended last May when a judge signed off on their settlement, effectively terminating their legal bond. The finalization of their union followed King’s efforts to throw out their settlement. She argued that she was “under duress and stress” when she signed the papers. However, the Court did not accept her claims because the marital agreement had reportedly followed standard procedures. Besides dismissing King’s duress claims, the Court explained that she had failed to raise her objection to the marital settlement agreement within the required timeframe. Additionally, The Blast reported that her argument was not credible because her legal reps never objected to the agreement. Although Jaime King’s relationship with Kyle Newman did not go as planned, can she achieve a happy ending with Austin Sosa?
