A couple of weeks ago, Alyvia Russell and her family noticed that her mom Athena wasn’t feeling well. While her mom has always had health complications, including undergoing heart ablation surgery after giving birth to Alyvia’s sister, things seemed worse than usual. She noticed her mom started having trouble breathing, and her feet began swelling up.
Alyvia’s sister, who is EMT-certified, recognized that it had something to do with their mom’s heart. She immediately took her to urgent care; they were then sent to the hospital. Since then, Alyvia has visited daily.
“What was most challenging was seeing my mom cry because she was scared,” the high school student from Pala, Calif., tells PEOPLE exclusively. “Not being able to cure her magically was making me upset too because I was sitting in her room trying to entertain her, but I could tell she was in pain.”

Then, one day after visiting the hospital, Alyvia was leaving to get gas and head home when she walked toward her car and noticed something on her door handle: a flower and a note that read, “You are perfect.”
Upon seeing this, her jaw dropped. At the time, she was also Snapchatting her boyfriend, so she captured the moment on camera.
“My initial reaction was making sure this wasn’t some kind of trafficking tactic, but I felt a little assured when I saw that there was a flower and note on every single car in the parking lot,” she adds. “After I realized that, I started to tear up a little bit because I didn’t hear good news that day. So coming out and seeing people left that on my car was the best part of my day.”
Later, Alyvia posted the video to TikTok, where it went viral, amassing more than 2 million views and hundreds of comments.
“I decided to post the video to show what a good deed someone had done,” Alyvia says. “But I also wanted to post it because I was hoping it would help find the people who did it. I cannot describe in words what I felt in that moment — I was feeling all kinds of emotions. I just wanted to thank the people who had done that because I was so appreciative of the act of kindness.”

Not long after the video took off, Alyvia shared the story with her mom, who was blown away by the love people were sending her in the comments.
“She came to me at every moment through this. It has also meant a lot to me,” Athena tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I’m not much of a TikTok person, but I have read her comments many times alone through the nights when my daughters were too exhausted to stay. The warmth and love from complete strangers that started from the love of flowers and an uplifting quote to all the love of comments — it was amazing!”
“It was kinda crazy how viral it went, but I must say it was a godsend at that moment,” the mom adds.

Although Alyvia usually loves to keep her car nice and clean, since this moment, she’s kept the flowers and note in her dashboard so she can always remember the small gesture that made a big difference and impact.
She adds how the flowers also inspired her to go to Trader Joe’s, where she picked up white and red roses, baby’s breath and eucalyptus and made a bouquet for her mom to surprise her.
“I have not been able to find out who it is, but if I do, I just know I would give them the biggest thank you,” she says of the Good Samaritan.
“I hope people take away that even the little things matter! Small gestures are so important to people,” Alyvia says. “Also, no matter the terms you are on with someone, if you can’t see them in person, send them a text. Because once it’s too late, you’ll realize that you should’ve reached out. No matter what news you hear walking out of the hospital, you deserve flowers. I wish this was something that is done more often.”

What’s at stake in Dolly Parton’s $450 million estate — from Dollywood to her music catalog

Dolly Parton may have sung about working “9 to 5,” but the country queen clocked a six-decade shift that leaves behind a massive $450 million empire.
Her meticulously crafted estate plan is set to determine who gets the keys to the kingdom — and what happens to the fortune she spent a lifetime building.
The music legend’s assets include a 3,000-song catalog estimated at $120 million, an estimated $165 million stake in Dollywood, a sprawling Tennessee property valued at roughly $10 million and, potentially, decades’ worth of personal possessions, including her famously extensive wardrobe and memorabilia.
How that fortune will be divided, and who ultimately controls the pieces of Parton’s empire, could remain private for some time.
“We know Dolly did not have any children of her own, so it is difficult to predict who she planned to leave it to,” Robert Strauss, expert estate lawyer and director at Los Angeles estate planning firm Weinstock Manion, told Page Six.
Whatever Parton’s estate plan says, her business savvy could make the transition of her music catalog considerably smoother.
“Because Dolly Parton famously owned her own publishing instead of selling it off to a major, her passing shouldn’t disrupt the management of the catalog itself,” Guy Blake, managing partner at Granderson Des Rochers, LLP, told Page Six.
“The copyrights — and the income they throw off — pass to her estate, which can keep managing them exactly as she did,” Blake said.
Neither Strauss nor Blake are directly affiliated with Parton’s estate.
Raised in a large family alongside 11 brothers and sisters, Parton is survived by six siblings: Willadeene, Robert Lee, Stella, Cassie, Freida, and Rachel.
Parton – who secretly battled cancer before she passed away — also leaves behind numerous nieces and nephews, as well as her goddaughter, Miley Cyrus.
Bryan Seaver, her nephew and longtime head of security, announced her death on behalf of the family on Tuesday.
Still, the details of the estate were apparently so closely guarded that even some of Parton’s longtime business associates were left scrambling to figure out what came next after her death, according to the Daily Mail.
A source who worked with the star for nearly 40 years shared that Parton kept her estate planning details fiercely under wraps, though her extended family isn’t expected to launch a nasty courtroom battle over the fortune.
“She’s taken care of all of them,” the insider told the outlet, adding, “I don’t see there being any fight with all of them because I think… they’re all being treated very fairly.”
The Daily Mail source expects the bulk of Parton’s fortune to go to charity, continuing the philanthropic work that was so central to her life.
That could mean her music and business empire ultimately helps fund causes including the Dollywood Foundation and its Imagination Library, a program inspired by her father’s illiteracy that has since put more than 300 million free books into children’s hands.
“She was one smart lady, as gifted in business as she was in music,” the source said.

Kylie Jenner wants ‘bigger and more out there’ implants after sharing exact boob job specs

Keeping up with Kylie Jenner’s plastic surgery plans.
The “Kardashians” star confessed on the “Better Half With Stas and Vic” podcast Wednesday that she wants “bigger and more out there” breast implants.
“I do want them bigger,” the makeup mogul, 29, confirmed to co-hosts Anastasia Karanikolaou and Victoria Villarroel. “I say it every day.”
Jenner confirmed, “I want my tits to walk in before I do.”
The reality star’s pals confirmed she has been talking about sizing up her “for the past year,” with Karanikolaou, also 29, quipping, “She has, like, an obsession with big tits.”
Jenner chimed in, “Love tits.”
As for when she’ll go under the knife, Karanikolaou pointed out that Jenner initially wanted to get the procedure done before her 29th birthday earlier this month.
The Kylie Cosmetics creator said she “probably” wouldn’t do it before turning 30 either — but will get her belly button pierced “just to experience it.”
She said, “I want diamonds dripping from my belly button. Dripping everywhere.”
Jenner’s comments come one year after she went viral for sharing the exact details of her boob job in a TikTok comment after a social media user asked how she obtained the “most perfect, natural” chest and got “them to sit like that, respectfully.”
In June 2025, Jenner replied, “445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!!!! silicone!!! … Hope this helps lol.”
445 cc is estimated to be between a D and DD cup depending on the starting breast size, per London’s Centre for Surgery, and a moderate profile is meant to appear the most natural.
Jenner went on to name-drop her surgeon, Dr. Garth Fisher, which she said on Wednesday’s episode has led to people calling the office “all the time … asking for [her] information.”
Additionally, the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum confirmed she singlehandledly runs her social media accounts.
“It’s just me,” she told listeners. “When I post things, I never really run it by anyone. I’m also doing Kylie Cosmetics and Khy, those Instagrams.”
However, Jenner plans to “hand it off” to someone next year in order to “relax” since it “consumes a lot of [her] time.”
Jenner also hit back at rumors she and Karanikolaou are on the outs after the latter made headlines for missing her birthday bash.
Page Six, notably, reported last week that the duo are “still friends” and “just haven’t been hanging out as much as they used to.”
The Hulu personality laughed off the rampant speculation they’re no longer pals on Wednesday, saying, “I think it’s funny. I just really don’t care.”

Rachel Reilly wants ‘Survivor’ players to ‘steamroll’ on ‘Big Brother 28’

Rachel Reilly wants Dee Valladares and Rick Devens to succeed on “Big Brother 28” — even if that means “Survivor” players will have bragging rights for life.
Reilly expressed her support for the “Survivor” duo while speaking exclusively to Page Six alongside fellow “Big Brother” alums Britney Haynes and Danielle Reyes to celebrate the latter show’s 1,000th episode airing Thursday.
“I kind of want them to steamroll it, because I feel like if Dee and Devens can outwit, outplay, outlast these people, and if they can win competitions and use their powers at the right time, I’m hoping that for future seasons if we do see another ‘Survivor’ player or if we see any more returnees, that we have more of an outright battle from the beginning,” Reilly shared.
The “Big Brother 13” winner noted that Valladares, 29, and Devens, 42, have been able to dominate alongside “Big Brother 26” alum Angela Murray thanks to some of the tattle-tale newbies.
“We see Drew [Campbell] and Barrett [Pfeiffer] this season going and reporting information to the ‘Icons’ — like what is that all about?” she said.
“So I think the fact that they’re able to outplay these people so easily… I give them props. You have to give it to the gamer.”
Reyes, however, feels differently.
“If you’re ‘Big Brother’ alumni, we do not want them to win,” the Season 3 runner-up told us. “We want to see them play the game, but we don’t want them to win because that’s our kingdom.”
“We don’t want them to come into our ‘Big Brother’ house and win, when we have this inner struggle of what’s the harder show, ‘Big Brother’ or ‘Survivor?’ So that’s where I stand in watching these two play this game.”
Haynes agreed she’s rooting against Valladares and Devens because of the unspoken “rivalry” between “Big Brother” and “Survivor” players.
“Winning both shows, which Dee the potential to do, that is something that has never been done,” Haynes told us. “So of course, there’s that piece of you that wants the ‘Big Brother’ person to be the first one to do it.”
Mixing veteran players with new contestants has happened before on “Big Brother,” including in Season 14, which saw Season 10 winner Dan Gheesling lose to newbie Ian Terry in a controversial jury vote that fans still debate today.
But Haynes, who voted for Terry to win despite being a returner that season, doesn’t think there will be as much resentment against the Season 28 vets.
“The difference was that sentiment was spread through the house the very first week,” Haynes explained. “I haven’t really seen the same type of communal uprising on ‘Big Brother 28.’”
Looking toward the future, Reilly, Reyes and Haynes all believe CBS should keep bringing players back in some capacity.
“I would love to see some of the more recent players come back and play against other people from other seasons, even sprinkling in some like really old-school players,” Reilly said. “I think that would be so much fun.”
Reilly added, “I think they could do a legends season for like three weeks or something like that. I mean, I would go for that. But for a whole summer, I would absolutely love to see a full All-Star season.”
Echoing Reilly’s opinion, Reyes name-dropped Season 2’s Monica Bailey and Season 3’s Lisa Donahue — who beat her in the final jury vote— as deserving returners.
“I would love to see Lisa play again. I think people don’t give her flowers for what she did,” Reyes explained.
“And I know people are like, ‘Oh, Dani, you should have won the game.’ But I would love to see Lisa come in and cement her legacy in ‘Big Brother. “I would love for them to give her a chance and to play the game again.”
“Big Brother 28” airs every Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday at 8 p.m. ET on CBS and is available to stream the next day on Paramount+.
