Will Forte humorously recounted how his wife, Olivia Modling, jokingly threatened divorce over his less-than-enthusiastic response to her new hairstyle.

The actor, known for his role in “MacGruber,” shared the story of being away filming the second season of “The Four Seasons” when he decided to spontaneously FaceTime Modling.

“When she answered the call, I saw her sporting freshly cut bangs,” he detailed during a Thursday episode of “Late Night With Seth Meyers.”

Forte admitted he was taken aback, having never seen her with bangs before and being unaware of her plans to get them. The first words he uttered were, “What happened to you?”

The 55-year-old actor confessed that his initial reaction was less than ideal, adding, “I even asked, ‘Is that a wig?!’”

The actor then tried to defend himself, explaining that Modling was “hunched over a little bit” on camera, and that the bangs weren’t similar to French actress Brigette Bardot’s but more like Spock’s from “Star Trek.”

“And it was also right around Halloween, so like, maybe she was going to dress as Spock for Halloween, and it was a wig?” he added.

Forte, however, realized his wife’s new hairdo wasn’t a wig and quickly tried to mend his initial remarks.

“It’s like, ‘How do I turn this around and make it seem like I think they’re beautiful?’” the “Last Man on Earth” alum recalled thinking.

“And then I kind of realized we were in the middle of rehearsal and everyone was like, ‘What are you doing on your phone?’ So I said, ‘Oh! I’ve got to go!’ So that was how it was left.”

Forte explained he was unable to contact Modling for half an hour and returned to his phone with several text messages from her.

Meyers then displayed the string of messages as Forte read them to the audience.

“She said, ‘Is that a wig? The. Worst. Possible. Thing. To. Hear. After. Cutting. BANGS,’” he read. “And I was like, ‘Ha ha ha ha.’ And then she said, ‘Divorce.’” 

Forte reassured the audience that he and Modling “got past it.”

The couple got engaged in 2019 shortly after they started dating.

They got secretly married during an intimate ceremony in New Mexico in 2021.

Forte and Modling are the parents of two daughters, Zoe, 5, and Cecilia, who was born in 2022.

The family of Casias, whose body was found last weekend, emphatically dismisses the notion of suicide and suspects possible foul play instead. Casias, aged 54, went missing on June 26, 2025, from Taos, New Mexico, leaving her loved ones searching for answers.

Her family, particularly from her parents’ side, expressed their concerns on Facebook, noting that the area where her body was eventually found—the McGaffey Ridge area of Carson National Forest—had been searched previously without success.

It was a hiker who ultimately stumbled upon her remains, leading New Mexico State Police to publicly confirm her identity on Saturday. The presence of the handgun near her body adds an additional layer of mystery to the case, prompting further inquiry into the circumstances surrounding her death.

A hiker found her body over the weekend, according to New Mexico State Police. They publicly identified her remains Saturday. They said there was also a handgun nearby.

An official cause and manner of death had not been made public as of Thursday morning. News Media has reached out to the county medical examiner’s office and police for more information.

Although the post mentioned a “mound of evidence,” it was not immediately clear what the family had collected in connection with the case.

“You don’t need to be a hunter, a scientist or a cop to know that a human body is not going to be left out in the elements and be undisturbed a year later,” said Thomas McNally, an Arizona private investigator who has been working with her family.

He said Casias was known to conceal carry a pistol, but he couldn’t speak to the caliber or condition of the one found near her remains.

However, he distanced Casias from reports of other government lab workers who have gone missing in recent months, telling News Media she was an administrative assistant and not a scientist. Some of her duties involved scheduling government vehicles for off-site maintenance, he said.

New Mexico State Police have said Casias failed to report to work the day she went missing, then visited her daughter but never came home.

According to authorities, she left behind personal belongings including her purse, driver’s license and multiple cellphones.

Los Alamos National Laboratory, about 35 miles northwest of Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of 16 Energy Department labs around the country. There are currently about 14,000 people working there.

It was established in 1943 in connection with the Manhattan Project — resulting in the world’s first nuclear weapons.

News Media has reached out to the lab for comment.

Dennis Quaid appeared jubilant this week as he reunited with his ex-wife during their son’s high school graduation, just days after seeking to terminate his child support obligations.

The 72-year-old actor and Kimberly Buffington, 54, became parents to twins Zoe and Thomas through surrogacy in 2007. After several separations and reconciliations, they officially divorced in 2018, with Quaid agreeing to nearly $14,000 a month in child support.

Quaid, known for his role in “Reagan” and reportedly worth $30 million, proudly posed alongside his 18-year-old twins and his former spouse Buffington at the elite Oaks Christian School in Los Angeles, which charges $45,000 annually.

The actor cut a dashing figure in a navy suit as he attended the ceremony with his current wife, 33-year-old Laura Savoie.

Although Quaid and Buffington maintained some distance throughout the event, Quaid was seen giving his ex-wife a friendly pat on the back, while Savoie shared a warm embrace with Zoe.

Buffington and Zoe looked like twins in cream ensembles as they proudly watched Thomas take to the stage to receive his diploma.

Dennis Quaid looked positively giddy as he awkwardly reunited with his ex-wife this week at their son’s high school graduation – days after filing to end his child support payments – seen with Kimberly Buffington and twins Zoe and Thomas, 18

Quaid, 72, and Kimberly Buffington, 54, welcomed twins Zoe and Thomas via surrogate in 2007 and, after multiple splits and reconciliations, divorced in 2018 – with the actor paying almost $14,000 a month in child support – pictured 2009 

Quaid was also seen taking to the lectern to deliver a commencement speech to the class of 2026.

Last month it emerged Quaid is filing legal documents to ensure his monthly payments will end once both teenagers are awarded their diplomas. 

Quaid pays a base rate of $13,750 in monthly child support, with markups possible in the event his earnings rise above a particular level.

With Zoe having graduated high school on May 23 and Thomas now graduating on June 3, Quaid is hoping to make certain the cessation of his payments. 

The hearing date for Quaid’s Request for Order or Modification of Child Support is scheduled for July 28th.

Quaid has been married since 2020 to his fourth wife, Savoie, who is nearly four decades his junior and a year younger than his son, Jack Quaid, whom he had with his second wife, Meg Ryan.

At the moment, Quaid can still boast of a busy work schedule, with three film releases this year alone including the Netflix action thriller War Machine, led by Alan Ritchson.

He also has a number of upcoming projects in various stages of completion, such as the film The Florist featuring French screen legend Jean Reno and an AMC series called Thunder Road starring Quaid as a NASCAR legend. 

Quaid enjoyed his first flush of celebrity in 1979 when he appeared in Breaking Away, a coming-of-age film about recent high school graduates. 

As he moved into the 1980s, he rose to further prominence through The Right Stuff, The Big Easy and Great Balls of Fire!

However, the drug-fueled whirl of the era’s showbiz milieu was evidently irresistible to Quaid, who plunged into a galloping cocaine addiction. 

Explaining that drugs were included on ‘some movie budgets,’ he once told Megyn Kelly: ‘You know, I was doing cocaine pretty much on a daily basis during the ’80s.’

‘I spent many, many nights screaming at God to take this away from me,’ he told the interviewer during her stint on NBC’s Today show. ‘I’ll never do it again, because I’ve only got an hour before I’ve gotta be at work.’

In the end, he told People he had a ‘white light’ moment in which he ‘saw myself either dead or in jail or losing everything I had,’ prompting him to get sober in 1990. 

Searching for a way to ‘fill the hole’ left by drugs, he explored a variety of religious texts including the Quran and the Bhagavad Gita before returning to the Christian faith of his upbringing and ‘developing a personal relationship’ with God.

A couple of years ago, when his twins were 16, Quaid revealed the advice he gave his children before they struck out into the working world.

His firstborn son, Jack, had already followed his footsteps into acting and achieved success in his own right as one of the stars of Amazon show The Boys. 

‘I tell my kids to find something you love to do, then figure out a way to get paid for it,’ Quaid told Fox News. ‘I don’t push them either way. They are who they are.’

A potential reunion is on the horizon in Kansas City.

As the NFL season approaches, the Kansas City Chiefs are actively seeking reinforcement in their cornerback lineup. They are considering a reunion with a familiar face, a key player in their two Super Bowl victories who faced legal challenges after departing from the team.

Veteran cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is scheduled to visit the Chiefs on Thursday, as reported by ESPN.

Sneed, who contributed four years to Kansas City’s success, was traded to the Tennessee Titans in 2024 in exchange for a seventh-round draft pick. The Titans released him this offseason.

During his stint with the Titans, Sneed encountered some legal difficulties.

Sneed was charged with aggravated assault in 2024, stemming from a shooting at a Texas car dealership.

The charges were then dropped to misdemeanor, and then dropped altogether in May of this year. 

Sneed was not too keen on leaving the Chiefs after the 2023 season.

“Yeah, man, I didn’t talk to them. I was upset, man,” he said at the time. “I was upset, you know, Kansas City, that’s like my first love. They showed me the way, showed me how to be a champion, gave me two rings. You know I was bitter. I was angry because I wanted to stay in that environment around everybody who I was used to. But it’s God’s plan.”

Many at the time were shocked that the Chiefs traded away their CB1, who was a key part of the multiple playoff runs.

But the trade looked smart as Sneed struggled over his two years with the Titans due to multiple injuries. 

With Sneed now free of the legal issues, the Chiefs are looking to bring back their former star corner after trading Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams. 

Sneed had his best year with the Chiefs in 2022, when he tallied three interceptions, 11 passes defended and 108 combined tackles.

He maintained his strong play the next year and won his second Super Bowl. 

Federal authorities revealed on Thursday that a multimillion-dollar scheme meant to deliver mental health services to children was instead used to finance a collection of luxury cars. This announcement came as the Justice Department launched a larger initiative to tackle nationwide fraud, including the unveiling of the FBI’s new “Most Wanted Fraudsters” list.

The highlighted case was part of a series of legal actions disclosed by the Department of Justice, marking what officials described as an unprecedented collaboration between federal and state agencies. This effort targets fraud in healthcare, government programs, and consumer scams, with alleged losses exceeding $57 million.

“Some criminals have become so brazen, so daring in defrauding the government of tens of millions of dollars,” acting Attorney General Todd Blanche stated during a press briefing in Ohio. He emphasized that these cases “should shock your conscience.”

Prosecutors have charged four individuals in Ohio for their involvement in an alleged behavioral health fraud scheme that reportedly resulted in over $30 million in fraudulent Medicaid claims. The defendants are accused of running behavioral health organizations that submitted Medicaid claims for therapy and psychotherapy services purportedly provided to children and young adults participating in summer camps, church groups, and recreational programs.
