Alan Osmond, the eldest performing member of the 1970s pop group The Osmonds, has died at 76. Family spokespeople and local Utah outlets said he died at his home in Orem on the evening of April 20, 2026, with his wife Suzanne and their eight sons at his bedside. Born in Ogden in 1949, Alan rose to fame performing with his brothers on The Andy Williams Show and helped steer the group’s transition to international teen-pop stardom. He was a principal songwriter and composer for the band, credited on hits including “One Bad Apple” and the critically noted “Crazy Horses.” Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1987, Alan retired from performing but remained active as an advocate, speaker at MS events and a founder of charities such as the OneHeart Foundation and the Stadium of Fire celebration. He published a memoir in 2024 and is survived by his wife, eight sons, 30 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. The family has not released a formal cause of death beyond his long battle with illness.

A confrontation between former world heavyweight David Haye and actor Adam Thomas has dominated coverage of I'm A Celebrity... South Africa after a Friday (April 17) episode showed Haye publicly criticising Thomas for opting out of a Bushtucker Trial because he was “not feeling well,” saying the actor was “dehydrated” and calling him “useless.” Adam, who has spoken publicly about living with psoriatic arthritis, later posted that Haye “broke” him during the pre-recorded series. Campmates and presenters reacted strongly: Ashley Roberts, Scarlett Moffatt and others said Haye went “too far,” while hosts Ant and Dec said his behaviour “crossed the line.” Over the weekend Adam urged kindness after receiving widespread support. On Monday’s (April 20) episode Haye became the second contestant eliminated in a twist in which Ashley Roberts and others chose who to save; Haye then picked Gemma Collins to leave with him. Haye has described his comments as banter and says he has apologised privately; the all‑star series — filmed in South Africa — concludes with a live final on April 24.

Christina Applegate, the 54-year-old Emmy-winning actress, posted an Instagram message on April 20–21 thanking fans and saying she is “getting stronger and better every day” amid widespread reports she was hospitalized in Los Angeles. TMZ reported mid-April that Applegate had been in hospital since late March; her representative declined to confirm whether she was hospitalized or provide details of any treatment. Applegate’s post featured a photo of a coffee mug atop her recently released memoir, You With the Sad Eyes, and said she is “taking a moment to focus on my health” and will speak more later. Applegate publicly disclosed a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2021 and has been open about long-term complications — she and fellow MS patient Jamie-Lynn Sigler co-host the MeSsy podcast. Media accounts and unnamed friends have described periods of severe illness, and Applegate previously said she has been hospitalized dozens of times since her diagnosis and was treated for a kidney infection in 2025. Her team has emphasized a history of “complicated medical conditions” while asking for privacy as she focuses on recovery.

The long-awaited sequel The Devil Wears Prada 2 held its world premiere on April 20, 2026 at Lincoln Center in New York, reuniting original stars Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci.

Apple TV announced on April 21, 2026, that Silo season 3 will premiere July 3, 2026, with a 10-episode run released weekly on Fridays through September 4. The streamer released a teaser trailer and first-look photos revealing that season three will intercut the series’ present timeline—with Rebecca Ferguson’s Juliette Nichols returning after a forced “cleaning,” memory loss and a recovering silo rife with rebellion—with origin-story flashbacks set centuries earlier. Jessica Henwick and Ashley Zukerman, introduced at the end of season two, will play central roles as journalist Helen Drew and Congressman Daniel Keene, whose investigation into a conspiracy helps explain why humanity went underground. Steve Zahn returns, Colin Hanks will recur, and a wider ensemble includes Common, Harriet Walter and others. Based on Hugh Howey’s bestselling trilogy and produced by Apple Studios, seasons 3 and 4 were filmed back-to-back; season 4 is already slated to conclude the adaptation. The release consolidates Apple TV+’s growing slate of high-profile science fiction and aims to keep subscribers engaged through a multi-season narrative finish.

Tony-winning director Sam Gold will helm a Broadway revival of Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in spring 2027, producer Seaview announced on April 21. The production follows a competitive rights acquisition from International Literary Properties, which became the Williams estate’s custodian after a strategic partnership with The University of the South in 2025. Seaview said the run will be a strictly limited engagement; casting and exact dates will be revealed later. The project reunites Gold and Seaview after recent collaborations including An Enemy of the People and Romeo + Juliet. Gold, known for provocative reinterpretations of classics such as The Glass Menagerie and Macbeth, said the play’s themes of mendacity, repression and desire remain strikingly resonant. The last Broadway revival was in 2013 starring Scarlett Johansson and Benjamin Walker; the play originally premiered in 1955 and won the Pulitzer Prize. Rights and production deals were brokered by ILP and Seaview’s legal teams, with 101 Productions managing the Broadway engagement.
