Down by the bay…

Warning: Spoilers ahead! Do not proceed unless you’ve watched the “Widows Bay” Season 1 finale, “We Hope You Enjoyed Your Time!”

In the Season 1 finale of Apple’s buzzy horror/ comedy, “Widow’s Bay,” the frazzled mayor, Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys) tried to kill Ruth (K Callan) – only to get thrown with a plot twist. She confessed that she was secretly his late wife’s mother, which meant that his son, Evan (Kingston Rumi Southwick) was her grandson.

This was a big deal because it meant that Evan was the island founder Richard Warren’s (Hamish Linklater) last living descendant.

As set up in the previous episode, the whole reason why Tom tried to axe Ruth was that killing the last of Richard Warren’s bloodline would break the curse on the island, and save everyone.

In the Season 1 finale, Tom went to Ruth’s house during a storm and tried to kill her twice – first by crushing pills and putting powder in her tea, then by nearly smothering her with a pillow when he thought she was napping on her couch.

Tom was conflicted, and kept muttering to Ruth, “you’re a good person, you don’t deserve this.”

A friendly Ruth seemed oblivious to his murder attempts. She was having a blast, giving him a tour of her house and yapping about her herb garden.

She eventually confessed to Tom that she once had an affair with a married man, had a baby, and let the man and his wife raise the child. Her secret kid was Tom’s late wife, she revealed. An astounded Tom confirmed with Ruth that nobody else knew this information.

Elsewhere in the episode, the town gathered in a shelter as a dangerous storm raged. Patricia (Kate O’Flynn) and Wyck (Stephen Root) were in charge. Things spiraled into chaos when everyone discovered that their stores of food were moldy. The crowd started panicking and fighting.

Meanwhile, Sheriff Bechir (Kevin Carroll) was appalled to learn that he and his pregnant wife were trapped on the island, because of the storm – and, her due date came early.

Bechir didn’t want his kid to be born into the curse on the island, so he showed up at Ruth’s house with a gun and shot her.

“I won’t damn my child. Patricia said you’d be ending it,” he said to Tom, referring to ending the curse by killing Ruth. Bechir added that he came to Ruth’s house because he knew that Tom “wouldn’t” do it.

Tom told Bechir that Ruth wasn’t the last living descendant, and Bechir held Tom at gunpoint, demanding to know who was. Before Tom could say anything, the storm then cleared up.

So, seemingly, everything was okay. Ruth was wounded and bleeding, but appeared to be still alive. The episode ended with Tom driving off in his car with Evan.

But, he noticed the sound of a bell – signifying that not enough people got fed to the island, and more people will need to be offered as tribute.

That’s where “Widows Bay” ended, going into Season 2.

The Season 1 finale was more serious than the rest of the season, but the shift in tone worked. Tom spent most of the episode agonizing over his choice to try to kill a sweet old lady.

Rhy’s performance was stellar as always, as Tom unravelled – if he doesn’t get nominated at the Emmys and Golden Globes, it will be a ridiculous snub.

There were still plenty of laughs, like when Ruth was going through her photo album, and pointing out which men had “made a pass at her.” She also told Tom that she loved one of her ex boyfriends, until, “He got bit by an animal, and became that animal.” The show remains delightfully weird.

The Apple horror comedy has been the word-of mouth hit of the summer.

“It’s become one of those shows everyone’s talking about, and we’re thrilled to see audiences continue to embrace it,” Matt Cherniss, head of programming, Apple TV, said in a statement announcing Season 2.

Horror king Guillermo del Toro himself also publicly praised the show, posting on X that it, “may very well be the best streaming series in a long time” and called it, “mesmerizing.”

“Season two is about how everything is great on the island and there’s nothing to worry about,” creator Katie Dippold joked in Apple’s statement announcing the renewal.

Season 2 doesn’t have a premiere date yet.

Vrai makes the best lab-grown diamond earrings — just ask Taylor Swift

Prepare to polish up real nice.

Giant statement earrings have their time and place — but if you ask me, daintier fine jewelry pieces you can sleep, shower and sweat in are far superior. In addition to being more comfortable than shoulder-dusting styles, these classic studs and drops elevate any outfit and are guaranteed to go with everything in your closet, making them well worth the investment.

One of my favorite sources for this sort of everyday sparkle? Vrai, whose delicate lab-grown diamond designs marry top-tier quality and craftsmanship with a commitment to sustainable production.

“We create diamonds by crystallizing greenhouse gasses in our zero-emission foundry — the world’s first [to be] certified carbon-neutral,” Vrai co-founder and president Mona Akhavi previously told Page Six Style.

“The diamonds are gently grown in plasma reactors powered by 100% renewable energy from the Columbia River, located in America’s beautiful Pacific Northwest — entirely removing the environmental and human toll of mining.”

I’m the proud owner of several pairs of Vrai earrings, including the Linked Tennis Earrings and Solitaire Studs, and have been known to wear them for weeks at a time.

I’m in good company, too; Taylor Swift’s a big fan of the brand, having been spotted multiple times in both aforementioned styles. (She even owns two different sets of the Solitaire Studs — one featuring round brilliant stones like mine, the other with trillion-cut ones.)

The 14-time Grammy winner’s particularly fond of the Linked Tennis Earrings, which she’s worn to Chiefs games, movie premieres, dinner dates and even onstage during her Eras Tour.

“As a creator of her own music, career, story and brand, Taylor aligns with Vrai‘s diamond origin and creation process; disrupting expectations through innovation and authenticity,” Akhavi told us last year.

“[Swift] is known for her authentic style that favors self-expression and is full of symbolism — just as Vrai designs are symbolic and meaningful.”

And judging by the fact that my favorite earrings just as beautiful now as the day I bought them, I’d guess Swift’s are still in pristine condition, too.

In fact, I’m optimistic they’ll last for eras to come.

Zendaya wears angel wings at ‘The Odyssey’ NYC premiere

Zendaya made a show-stopping appearance at “The Odyssey” premiere in New York City, donning ethereal angel wings on the red carpet.

The actress was pictured at the event on Tuesday evening in a plunging, off-white strapless feather-lined gown with a thigh-high slit from Matiéres Fécales.

The dress featured a long train, as well as the dramatic feathered matching wings, which stretched out past her shoulders.

The “Euphoria” star accessorized with jeweled Chopard chandelier earrings and sculptural white wedge heels, and styled her hair a soft, curly braid that trailed down her back.

She finished the jaw-dropping look with a natural makeup palette.

Footage from the event showed the “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” actress effortlessly showing off every angle of the breathtaking look for photographers before stepping into the event.

Fans on social media gushed over the look, with one person writing, “Flawless!! I’m also loving her makeup looks, so simple yet so perfect for each outfit ❤️”

Another remarked, “Wow thanks a lot I just passed out,” while a third chimed in, “How do you keep Slaying every single time? Like how 🤌🏻✨💕”

Others weighed in with one-word compliments, including “Mesmerizing,” “Beyond,” and “Iconic.”

The “Dune” star, 29 — who plays Athena, goddess of wisdom and warfare in the film — divulged during the appearance that the look has been years in the making.

“Law put this on hold a long time ago. Like, two years ago,” she said of her longtime stylist, Law Roach, during an E! News livestream.

“We’re usually on the same page,” she added. “We have gone back and forth a few times. It’s family, so that’s how we do it.”

Zendaya was joined by A-list legends Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron, Matt Damon, Lupita Nyong’o and more as the cast gathered for the latest premiere.

It’s worth noting that her husband, Tom Holland, attended the event as well, posing on the red carpet in a sleek buttonless, monochromatic black suit.

They were previously spotted at premieres in Paris and London earlier this month to celebrate the highly anticipated release of director Christopher Nolan’s Greek epic.

For the Paris premiere, she notably modeled a custom white lace cutout gown by Louis Vuitton.

Tom Segura hinted at Christina Pazsitzky divorce before breakup bombshell

wp content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F3%2F2026%2F07%2F134337359

Comedian Tom Segura hinted at his split from wife Christina Pazsitzky by not wearing his wedding ring on his latest podcast episode.

Segura ditched his ring for Monday’s episode of his “2 Bears, 1 Cave” podcast that he co-hosts with pal Bert Kreischer.

The hour-long episode came out the same day of Segura and Pazsitzky’s separation news.

Segura had his wedding ring during all his prior podcasts, including the June 29 episode of “2 Bears, 1 Cave.”

According to TMZ, Segura, 47, and Pazsitzky, 50, separated within the last couple of months after 18 years of marriage. They have two sons, Ellis, born in 2016, and Julian, born in 2018.

The former couple founded the podcast network YMH Studios and co-host their popular podcast, “Your Mom’s House,” which debuted in 2012.

They haven’t filmed an episode of “Your Mom’s House” together since late April. Segura wore his wedding ring on that episode.

TMZ reported Segura and Pazsitzky will continue to co-host the podcast despite their split.

“They had a special and productive relationship, creating one of the most successful comedy podcast networks in the industry and, more importantly, two kids,” a source told the outlet.

“They are taking different paths moving forward while remaining devoted to their children,” the insider added.

Page Six has not heard back from Segura and Pazsitzky’s reps.

The comedians, who got married in November 2008, often discuss their marriage on both their podcast and their separate stand-up shows.

In, 2019, Segura joked during a comedy show that the key to his marriage was “intimidation and fear.”

“My wife is Kim Jong-il and I’m the people of North Korea,” he cracked. “Every day, there are a series of interrogations leading to a looming execution.”

Pazsitzky poked fun at Segura in her 2017 Netflix special, “Mother Inferior.”

“I love my husband. I laugh at his jokes. I think he’s fantastic,” she said. “And then all day, every day, I wanna punch him in his dumb face.”

She added, “And it’s not the big things that make you wanna kill your spouse. It’s little stuff.”
