When Naomi Judd took her own life in 2022, it was her daughter Ashley who found her.  And she spoke about that on the new episode of the “All In with Anderson Cooper” podcast. She called it “traumatic, but added, quote, “I’m so glad I was there, because even when I walked in that room and I saw that she had harmed herself, the first thing out of my mouth was, ‘Mama, I see how much you’ve been suffering.'” Ashley held Naomi in her bed after finding her.  And she told her, quote, “All was forgiven long ago.  Leave it all here.  Take nothing with you.  Just be free.”

When Jennifer Lawrence looks back on her wedding day, all she sees is PAIN.  She called it “awful”. Like a lot of brides, Jennifer found it hard to have fun because it was so stressful, and she was so worried about her guests.  She got married in October in Rhode Island and was “freaking out” about her guests being cold.  Most people reassured her they were fine, her mother wasn’t so polite.  She told Jennifer, “It’s freezing out there, your grandmother almost died!” The chaos actually started at the rehearsal dinner, when Jennifer booted Robert De Niro. She says, “I looked over and I saw Bob, who doesn’t know anybody and he’s kind of wandering around. “I immediately was like, ‘No, this isn’t what he wants to be doing.  I don’t want him here.’  So I went over and whispered, I was like, ‘Go home’ and he was nice . . . he like talked to my parents and was polite . . . but I was like, ‘Go.’ “That just genuinely made me feel better.”
