Is there going to be a Mamma Mia 3? “I think one day there will be another film, because there’s meant to be a trilogy,” says Judy Craymer.

Get those suitcases packed ASAP because it looks like we might be heading back to the magical island of Kalokairi for one last ABBA singalong. Mamma Mia 3? Yes. Really. Here we go again, again.

Talk of another Mamma Mia movie has been on the cards ever since the second film was released. Audiences love it, the cast love filming it… It’s pretty much a win-win situation.

Thankfully, both co-creator and producer Judy Craymer, and director of Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again Ol Parker have now confirmed that there are plans for Mamma Mia 3 to happen.

The latest update? It looks like Meryl Streep might actually return as our dearly departed Donna Sheridan in a bigger capacity.

Speaking to Screen Rant in December 2022, Parker appeared to imply that Craymer’s plans are underway and a third movie is being planned as we speak.

“Judy Craymer, the genius producer behind the musical and the first two films, always plans for it to be a trilogy,” Parker said. “That’s all I can say. The first one made an enormous amount of money, and I think we made a fair amount too. I know that there is a hunger for a third, and I know that she has a plan. Wouldn’t it be lovely?”

In another interview with Deadline, Craymer has teased that development on a third film is in the very early stages and it looks like it might happen… with Meryl Streep back as Donna?!

“I don’t want to over-egg it, but I know there’s a trilogy there,” she said. “There is a story there, and I do think Meryl should come back – and if the script is right, she would, I think, because she really loved playing Donna.”

Now, Meryl has now confirmed that she’d be more than willing to return for a third film. “I’m up for anything,” Meryl told Vogue. “I’ll have to schedule a knee scoping before we film, but if there’s an idea that excites me, I’m totally there.”

“I told Judy if she could figure out a way to reincarnate Donna, I’m into that. Or it could be like in one of those soap operas where Donna comes back and reveals it was really her twin sister that died.”

Since the release of Mamma Mia 2, ABBA have also reunited and released an entire album of new songs so there’s plenty of new material – as well as some other tracks from their legendary discography that have yet to appear in the movies – to choose from, too.

That’s good news for Amanda Seyfried who previously told Collider that she was worried there wouldn’t be enough new songs for Mamma Mia 3.

In even better news: Christine Baranski has already said that she’d be up for returning as Tanya – mostly because she just absolutely loves shooting those films with the rest of the cast.

“If we could go back and have the same amount of good fun and be on a Greek island together filming and dining together at night at some wonderful trattoria or taverna, I don’t think anybody would give you an argument,” she told EW.

She also teased what Tanya might be up to in the third instalment: “Tanya married. Although by now, she may be divorced. She may have gotten bored with this man.”

As we all know, Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again saw flashbacks of Donna Sheridan’s life after it was revealed that she had died. Lily James stepped into those famous dungarees to play a young Donna, with Meryl Streep returning as Ghost Donna toward the end of the film.

So, with Donna still dead, what will happen next? Craymer didn’t offer any insight into the storyline of the potential third film, but given that literally anything can happen on that mysterious Greek island… the plot is anyone’s guess.

Will we see flashbacks from a young Ruby Sheridan’s life? Sophie dumping Sky and raising her son by herself? Two hours of Harry singing ABBA ballads and living his best life in the sun with his boyfriend? A one woman show where all the roles are played by Cher? Mamma Mia: Tokyo Drift?!

It sounds like Mamma Mia 3 is still quite a few years away from becoming a reality but as long as Christine Baranski and Julie Walters are back as Tanya and Rosie alongside Meryl as Donna, we’ll take anything.

Even today in 2023, the topic of breastfeeding causes a public debate.

It must be accepted by all mothers that it is not easy, especially in the summer season, to cover up when breastfeeding.

When the child is hungry, they are forced to breastfeed wherever they can.

Breastfeeding is a natural and beautiful act. For many moms, it’s a key part of raising a child to be big and strong and giving him or her the right nutrients. It’s also a way to bond with the child.

Whatever your stance is on public breastfeeding, the reality is that a mom can decide to nurse in public anytime, anywhere. Some people are unbothered by it, while others feel some discomfort at the sight.

Melanie Dudley, a mother of a newborn child, asked you to cover up while breastfeeding her child and her gesture was embraced by many other mothers around the world.

Melanie Dudley was sitting in an 86-degree restaurant with her three-month-old son and a few friends when her baby suddenly decided it was lunchtime.

The stranger approached Melanie and asked her to cover up. Melanie agreed to cover herself, just not in the manner the man was expecting.

“I was on vacation in Cabo San Lucas with my entire family, and a man asked me to cover myself. I’m usually discreet but we were seated in the back of the restaurant,” Melanie told.

“I did have the cover on, but it was so hot. It was like, 95 degrees, and my little baby was sweating,” the Texan told.

“I said, ‘You know what? I’m on vacation, I’m taking this off.’”

Melanie couldn’t see the problem, but the man in question did. So, Melanie responded by putting the cover over her head, instead, which left the restaurant in fits of laughter.

“I just put it over my head. I don’t know why. It wasn’t like a salacious fight or anything. That was just my response. I had no words, so I thought, I’ll just cover my head instead,” the woman explained.

Another woman took a photo of Melanie and posted it on Facebook, where it was shared with others 225,000 times.

Melanie’s picture got a lot of attention, and many praised her for the courage to publish it. Of course, she wasn’t the first woman to be criticized for breastfeeding in public, but Melanie’s creative response made the picture go viral, and the discussion flared up in a way that caused significant news agencies to cover the topic.

It’s a woman’s right to breastfeed her child and breast milk isn’t known as “liquid gold” for nothing but women continue to suffer criticism for doing what nature intended.

It doesn’t take a lot to go from having a roof over your head to being out on the streets. All it might take is one bad choice, one bad day at work, or simply a cruel twist of fate.

Clint Eastwood rose to indelible fame in the 60s after appearing in “Dollars Trilogy” as the man with no name. Since then, he has acted and directed numerous other films, and despite his advanced age, he still has not hung his acting coat.

While the “Changeling” actor is famous for his decades-long work in the industry, he is also known for his numerous public romances. In his tenure, the actor has been with many women, with all his romantic ventures ending up in breakups.

He has had many serious and casual relationships, which have varied in intensity and length with some overlapping. But who are these women who fell for his charms?

Eastwood first dated model Maggie Johnson in 1953. Unfortunately, despite their marriage lasting thirty years, they divorced in 1984. Nevertheless, their marriage was not all roses.

In between their thirty-year union, Eastwood had many other flings and forbidden romances with the likes of stuntwoman Roxanne Tunis between 1959 and 1973.

After ending his affair with Tunis, he met model Sondra Locke, and the two began living together in 1975. Nine years into their cohabiting situation, Eastwood officially divorced Maggie Johnson. However, during his relationship with Locke, he also dated flight attendant Jacelyn Reeves.

In the early to mid-1990s, Eastwood had a relationship with actress Frances Fisher. In 1996, the “Unforgiven” actor married his second wife, Dina Ruiz. Of all his relationships and marriages, Eastwood thought Ruiz was the woman who would truly make him settle down for good. He told The Independent, as ABC News reports:

“As far as I’m concerned, this is the woman I like monogamy with.”

Sadly, the couple split up in 2013 after 17 years of marriage. However, Eastwood would meet hotel restaurant hostess Christina Sandera a year later, and the two have been together since.

Meet the Girlfriend He Loves but Will Not Marry

After his numerous failed relationships, Eastwood was lucky to find love again with Christina Sandera, 33 years his junior. For the first time, Eastwood chose to date someone that did not share his fame and constant spotlight.

Eastwood and the vivacious blonde met at Eastwood’s Mission Ranch Hotel, where Sandera worked as a hostess. They fell in love shortly after meeting in 2014 and have been together since.

While she was once involved in a messy divorce with her ex-husband, one that included domestic violence claims, there hasn’t been much drama in her life since she started dating Eastwood. The lovebirds are just over nine years of dating, and Sandera has won over the Eastwood children’s hearts. An insider told Closer Weekly:

“He’s truly happy with her. She’s fun and easygoing, and his kids like her, too. She’s on an even keel like he is.”

However, despite the mutual love and respect they share, Eastwood has openly declared that he won’t be officially marrying Sandera because, as a source would disclose, “Clint doesn’t see any point in marrying again. He loves Christina, but marriage isn’t something he needs.”

Where Does Eastwood Call Home?

Unlike many Hollywood stars who choose to make Los Angeles their home, the “Cry Macho” star decided to live “out there when he’s got all those acres.” He made the Mission Ranch, Carmel, his home and lives there with his girlfriend.

The ranch, built in early 1850, was almost falling apart when Eastwood purchased it. He has since done numerous renovations on the property, boasting thirty-one luxurious guest rooms, a renovated restaurant and bar, and the most scenic views in California. It also has a workout room and a tennis court.

But the ranch is not just someplace the actor found and purchased. When he was 21, and a recruit at the nearby Fort Ord, he was looking to grab a quick, cheap meal and a soda when he came across the ranch. However, it was not the breathtaking place it is today.

Before becoming a lowkey restaurant and hotel, it was a dairy farm and the Fort Ord officers’ club. And when he saw the place, he thought he’d like to make it his home. He recalled: “The first time I saw the place, I thought it was terrific. Visually it was something else, and I thought it was the place I’d like to call home. So I kind of adopted Carmel.”

After becoming a big movie star, he returned, bought the ranch, and began renovating the property, making it a home for himself and those who wished to take several days off their busy schedules to enjoy the scenery. It is also crucial to note that Eastwood was once the Carmel town mayor.

In the 80s, Eastwood wanted to renovate a different property he owned, but the city council denied him permission. Realizing that many other residents had the same problem, he took the City Council to court and won. A year down the line, he ran for mayor, winning by a landslide.

The ranch holds numerous memories for Eastwood. It was where he directed his first movie and fell in love with the place. In 1980, the property was about to be torn down to pave the way for another irksome condominium development. Luckily, Eastwood swooped in, and, after parting with $5 million, he became the new owner. He shared:

“I had always loved the place, and they were just going to flatten it. They said it was obsolete. I thought it should be preserved as what it was.”

He has since done numerous renovations and developments around the ranch, putting up a “seedy refuge for traveling salesmen and illicit couples.”

The ranch features lush wetlands, a dramatic view of the sea, the beach’s gleaming curve, and the rocky Monterey coastline. There are also assorted farm animals on the ranch, including sheep, goats, and horses.

As one drives into the property, one can see old buildings that have been redone to become hotel structures surrounded by beautifully tended flowers, with cypress and eucalyptus trees shading the area.

The restaurant is a vast, bustling place with an active bar. A night at one of the ranch’s guest houses dawns into beautiful views of the Carmel River and a sandy beach.

Although the “Mystic River” actor is famous and a familiar figure, not only at the ranch but also in Carmel town, he prefers a more reclusive and private life. He describes himself by saying:

“I’m not the jolly host type.”

Those that know him in person say he is often eager to heap praises on others while he happily downplays his numerous achievements.

Eastwood Is Not Slowing Down

Eastwood hit the 93-year mark in May 2023 but is not slowing down. He directed and acted in his latest film, the 2021 “Cry Macho,” and reflected on his age and legacy, saying:

“I don’t look like I did at 20, so what? That just means there are more interesting guys you can play.”

In 2019, when appearing on “The Ellen Degeneres Show,” Eastwood recalled how as a kid, he would hang out with his 90-year-old grandfather and often wondered to himself who would want to live that long. Ellen hilariously replied, amid a burst of laughter from the crowd:

“Turns out you do!”

The nonagenarian, despite his age, is still working. He told Ellen that even as a looming fire consumed the hill near his office and everyone else had been evacuated, he still went in and continued working, never once intending to stop.

Clint Eastwood’s Life Now

Despite his age, Eastwood has not stopped working. He has been captured severally on the set of a movie he is currently working on.

He has been spotted filming in downtown Savannah, and during this time, many fans have run into the legendary actor and shared wonderful stories about their encounters.

The actor has met many of his fans on his off days, enjoying a meal and the local restaurants. One that he filmed and eventually ate at with his crew was La Scala, and the manager, Elena Hugley, was ecstatic to see him walk in.

Hugley described her pleasant encounter with him and said, “He was just very quiet, very sweet, very humble. Every once in a while, he would throw out a funny joke that no one expected, which was hilarious.”

The photo that Hugley shared with Eastwood warmed a lot of fan’s hearts. “Priceless photo,” gushed a commenter, and another one praised him for being a “living legend” and one of the “all-time greatest” actors.

Eastwood has reportedly been working on the film “Juror #2,” which follows a high-profile murder. According to one of the people who helped cast a few extras for the film, Bill Marinella, this was not the first time the actor visited Savannah.

He was also there while directing “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil,” and having him back there in his element has been exciting and overwhelming for many of his fans.

Although fans have loved seeing Eastwood back in action, they have also been worried that the actor looked “frail with old age” but still hoped he lived till he was a hundred.

Others also worried about “The Mule” star’s health, and whether it still allowed him to work at this rate. Fans of Eastwood would also love for someone to invent technology to reverse his age so the world does not lose the legend.

Another commenter added, “Clint looks so thin and haggard these days, but for 93, he’s still going strong,” while others thought he had lost weight. “So sad,” reiterated another fan. Despite fans’ concerns, Eastwood continues making magic on screen.

Raymond Burr was an iconic actor. Yet, how many people could say they knew the person behind the famous name? After all, his whole life was shrouded in a veil of falsehoods that he invented to hide his great and forbidden love.

Bruce Willis, the beloved actor renowned for his memorable roles in iconic films, has once again captured the hearts of his fans. Recently, his 28-year-old daughter, Tallulah, shared a series of rare and endearing pictures that have left fans amazed and filled with joy.

One heartwarming image shows Bruce Willis proudly posing, cradling his daughter in his arms. Dressed in a simple white t-shirt, comfortable grey sweatpants, and boots, he exudes an air of love and happiness.

This picture beautifully captures the bond between father and daughter, reminding us of the enduring power of family. Tallulah, brimming with excitement, also shares a delightful photo of herself holding her father’s hand, both of them smiling radiantly.

Their love and happiness shine through, encapsulated in this precious moment. It serves as a beautiful reminder of the importance of family at the core of our own happiness.

Dick Van Dyke is going strong at 97.

The generous actor has been known to give money and coats to the needy.

Having previous health scares, he tries to keep himself fit and healthy through exercise.

Dick Van Dyke is a celebrated television, stage, and film actor. For his work in the entertainment industry, he has received a Tony, a Grammy, and five Primetime Emmy Awards and was honored by the Kennedy Center in May 2021.

Born on December 13, 1925, in West Plains, Missouri, Van Dyke had a natural talent for entertaining people. Over the years, the actor has dabbled in various genres, from vaudeville to nightclub shows to radio. But the masses know him more from his work in television and movies.

His milestone performances include “Bye, Bye Birdie,” which took the public by storm on the stage from 1960 to 1961 and in a film adaptation two years later. In it, he sang “Put On a Happy Face,” which became a fan favorite. Speaking about how he got the song, thanks to his co-star Chita Rivera, the actor explained:

“And Chita said, ‘You know, Dick doesn’t have anything to do in the first act. Why don’t you give it to him?’ And my life changed, right there.”

He then starred in the sitcom, “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” from 1961 to 1966. Next was his portrayal of Bert the chimney sweep in the 1964 musical “Mary Poppins” opposite Julie Andrews. He also gained popularity for the 1996 film “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.”

At 97 years old, the actor has made an effort to keep his body fit. His regimen includes a series of workouts to strengthen various parts of his body, especially his abdominal muscles, legs, and arms. He went as far as to demonstrate how he does it, challenging fellow “old guys” to do the same.

As a young actor, he fell victim to the vices that plague some in the business, and sadly many do not survive them.
Not only is he sound in body, but the “Diagnosis Murder” actor has also kept his craft alive. He is still able to dance and sing as he did in his heyday. His talents were displayed in the recent film “Mary Poppins Returns,” starring Emily Blunt and Lin Manuel Miranda.

When offered a choice among three dance routines, he chose the most challenging one just to prove that he could do it at 92. And the actor has no plans of fading away. He is determined to reach that century mark. Referring to his fellow actor and comedian who lived to be 100, the nonagenarian said:

“George Burns made it. And I’m gonna make it too.”

Van Dyke has shown that his musical prowess is intact, singing with his wife, Arlene Silver. In a video released on Valentine’s Day, they gave a sweet rendition of Doris Day’s “Everybody Loves a Lover,” originally performed in 1958.

The actor is also known for having a kind and generous heart. He frequently visits the Malibu Community Labor Exchange, which is an organization that connects people looking for work with employers. Not only did he chat with the homeless, but he also handed out money to help them out.

Even the challenging seasons and roles, or the projects that had a less-than-glowing reception by critics and audiences, all served to make him into the actor and man he is.
A few weeks later, Van Dyke, who employees have called an “angel of God,” was spotted at the same charitable foundation dropping off dozens of winter coats. He bought the red plaid jackets to be handed out to those who didn’t have something warm to shield them from the cold.

However, the actor has not always been health conscious. When he was younger, he fell victim to the vices that plague some in the business, and sadly many do not survive them. The challenges he faced with his health inspired him to change. Having lived to a ripe old age, he said:

“Had I known I’d live this long, I’d have taken better care of myself.”

Van Dyke reportedly battled alcoholism in the 1970s. He was also a smoker for more than 50 years, smoking 20 to 40 cigarettes a day. He said he found smoking much harder to quit than alcohol. The actor also had spinal surgery in April 2011.

In 2023, the “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” star was among the honorees of the 43rd ceremony of the Kennedy Center Honors. These awards are given to exceptional talents in the performing arts. The actor, who was retracing the steps on his career path to that point, said:

“Recognition from your peers is always icing on the cake. How did I get to a Kennedy award? I never trained or did anything. I just ­enjoyed myself.”

Van Dyke was celebrated alongside fellow legends Debbie Allen, Joan Baez, Garth Brooks, and Midori. He and his wife, Silver, walked the red carpet together. The actor, who wore a black tuxedo and a wide smile, carried a cane. Silver looked elegant in a floor-length shimmering gown with a revealing neckline.

As he reflected on his 70-year career in Hollywood, Van Dyke felt fortunate to have had great opportunities. Even the challenging seasons and roles, or the projects that had a less-than-glowing reception by critics and audiences, all served to make him into the actor and man he is.

His appeal spans several generations of fans because his work is interwoven in the fabric of people’s lives.
One such instance was the critique of his cockney accent in “Mary Poppins,” which some believe cost him during award season. The Kennedy Center Honor was a surprise to the modest Van Dyke, who had no expectation of being recognized at that age and stage in his career. Some would say that, given his years in Hollywood, it was long overdue.

Van Dyke and Silver have an unconventional relationship, as he is 46 years older than she is. But their love story sounds like a fairytale. Speaking about the gap, Van Dyke joked:

“The age difference hasn’t been a problem at all. Emotionally I’m about 13. She’s very, very wise for her age so I’m just having the time of my life.”

At first, the difference in their ages was a source of worry for Silver. But after spending time with the actor, she warmed to the idea of being in a relationship with him. She viewed him less as his age and more as a friend until it was no longer an issue.

The two met at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, where Silver was working as a makeup artist for five years. The actor introduced himself, and they struck up a conversation. Later, Van Dyke, hired her to work on some of his movies on the Hallmark channel. As they spent more time together, their friendship deepened.

After six years as friends turned lovers, Silver and Van Dyke had a private wedding in February 2012 at a chapel in Malibu.
Silver was there to support him when he lost his partner of 33 years. After a while, they noticed that they enjoyed spending time with each other more than with any other person. Silver recognized that Van Dyke had the qualities she had been searching for.

She described her husband as the “perfect partner” and said their relationship was like a second childhood for both of them. She gets to have fun with an open-minded and enthusiastic partner who loves her. When asked what the best part about being married to her husband was, Silver said:

“Everything. He makes me feel like I can do anything. He’s my biggest fan. He just believes in me.”

The makeup artist reflected that her life felt like a modern fairytale. She went from working behind the scenes at events in Hollywood to getting dressed and made up on the red carpet next to her man. The two have managed to blend their lives, and the people in her life were so pleased to see her happy.

After six years as friends turned lovers, Silver and Van Dyke had a private wedding in February 2012 at a chapel in Malibu. Rather than a traditional wedding gown, Silver wore a simple pink dress from a retail store.

Their life together is full of “laughter, music, dancing, kindness, positivity and joy.”
In September of the same year, the couple had a second ceremony with a marine/circus theme. The eclectic event featured a circus tent with a gymnast in a plastic bubble pool and a hula-hooping bride, keeping in character with the joyful couple.

On his part, Van Dyke said that getting married to Silver was one of his smartest decisions. She fills their home with music and love and is a great cook. Speaking about the bond he shares with his “angel,” the actor said:

“We share an attitude. She can go with the flow. She loves to sing and dance, which we do almost every day. She’s just delightful.”

Their shared interests and perspective on life have made for a compatible union. Their life together is full of “laughter, music, dancing, kindness, positivity and joy.” Silver shares select moments on her Instagram page as well as the TikTok account they share.

Silver has said that she doesn’t mind when fans flock to the popular actor. His appeal spans several generations of fans because his work is interwoven in the fabric of people’s lives. The couple makes their home in Malibu, and the lovebirds are devoted to each other. On playing an important role in her husband’s life, Silver gushed:

“I do my best to take care of him and make him happy. I just think me being here is making him happy. I cook for him and I love taking care of him.”

Van Dyke is a loving grandfather of seven grandchildren. He and his first wife, Margie Willett, had four children: Barry Van Dyke, Carrie Beth van Dyke, Christian Van Dyke, and Stacy Van Dyke. While filming “Diagnosis Murder” with his son Barry, they often had other family members appear on the show.

As he approaches and hopefully surpasses that 100-year goal, Dick Van Dyke will go down in history as a shining beacon of the entertainment industry, a fixture in the history of American culture, and a generous member of his community.

Lots of folks know about Cher. When we talk about her, we often think of her rocky relationship with Sonny Bono. They had a kid together named Chaz Bono. Chaz, who was initially known as Chastity Bono, was born on March 4, 1969. Because his parents were famous, he became a well-known figure pretty quickly. It didn’t take much time for people to see him on TV.

Bono got his name from a movie called “Chastity,” which Sonny produced. In the movie, Cher played the main character, a young hippie runaway who was bisexual. Chastity Bono, their child, was conceived while they were making this film.

When Chaz was young, he often appeared on a TV show called “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour.” He would come on at the end of each episode when Sonny and Cher sang their famous song “I Got You Babe.” This made Chaz a familiar face to people watching the show.

But at home and school, Chaz was going through some tough times. He didn’t feel like he fit in with other girls his age. Chaz once said in an interview that he didn’t understand why other girls cared so much about fashion and boys.

When Chaz was 18 years old, he told his parents that he was a lesbian. He wrote in a book that as a child, he always felt different and realized he was gay when he was 13.

Cher, who later became a big supporter of the LGBTQ community, found it hard when her daughter came out as a lesbian. She even said in an interview that she didn’t handle it well at first.

Chaz himself said that his mom got really upset when he first told her he was gay.

When Chaz was 39, he began his transition to becoming a man.

Once again, Chaz’s mother, Cher, was surprised.

“When I found out Chaz was transitioning… we talked about it a lot, actually. But then Chaz didn’t mention it anymore, so I kind of forgot. And what I think is, there’s such a fear of losing the child you love, and what will replace that child,” Cher said. She added, “I think it’s about the fear, mostly. I felt, who will this new person be? Because I know who the person is now, but who will the new person be and how will it work and will I have lost somebody?”

It wasn’t until 2010 that Chaz officially became a man. A California court approved his request to change his gender and name.

In a documentary called “Becoming Chaz,” which premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival and aired on Oprah Winfrey Network, viewers got to see Chaz’s journey into becoming a man.

“My mother went through a kind of mourning period. It was difficult for her, and we didn’t see each other for about the first year of my transition,” Chaz explained to SBS Australia.

The documentary has lots of touching moments. One part shows Cher’s reaction after hearing Chaz’s new voice, changed by hormone drugs.

“I was really upset when I heard her voice on her answering machine. It was her old voice,” Cher said. “I remember asking, ‘Can we save it somehow?’ But it was gone. I won’t hear it again.”

After the documentary, Chaz started appearing in Hollywood more often. In 2011, he made history by being the first transgender man to be on “Dancing with the Stars.” This was also the first time a transgender man starred on a big TV show that wasn’t about being transgender, according to Advocate.com.

Five years later, Chaz appeared in five episodes of “American Horror Story: Roanoke” and played Reverend Rydale on “The Bold and the Beautiful.”

For a long time, Chaz struggled with being overweight and didn’t feel good in his body. But things started to change for the better when he began his gender transition.

“Years ago, when I talked to Oprah Winfrey, I said, ‘I wouldn’t have been able to do it before.’ I felt too disconnected from my body. The dysphoria I had about my body was too overwhelming for me to care enough to do anything like that,” Chaz explained.

When Chaz joined “Dancing With The Stars,” he weighed 250 pounds. But with all the practice and competition, he started losing weight quickly. That’s not surprising, given how much training and movement is needed to do well on the dance floor.

After the show ended, Chaz kept up his healthy lifestyle. He continued losing weight, and recent pictures show that he’s far from the unhealthy weight he was at 10 years ago.

Losing weight hasn’t been easy for Chaz. When you lose a lot of weight, sometimes your body can’t keep up, and you might end up with sagging skin.

“It’s not fun, but it was worth it because I look better now,” Chaz said. “I’ve cut out almost all grains from my diet. I mostly eat vegetables, meat, fruit, and nuts. On my birthday, I’ll have cake, though!” he told Extra TV.

His mother, Cher, has repeatedly praised her son’s courage and journey towards a healthier lifestyle.

”He did it all by himself. He made up his own mind and he did it. And it was like what — 85, 90 pounds. Wow! … I do not know if I’d have that courage.” Cher said in 2013.

It’s really great to see Chaz doing well today, isn’t it? He’s been through a lot, but he has a positive attitude and seems much happier now that he’s found himself.

I hope Chaz’s journey can inspire others out there! If you agree, feel free to share this article!
