Monday’s Dirt

We finally know how Gene Hackman and his wife died and it’s even more tragic than we could have imagined. Authorities say that Gene’s wife, Betsy, died first from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome. It’s a severe respiratory illness you get from contact with infected rodents. Gene survived a week before succumbing to severe cardiovascular disease. He was also suffering from advanced Alzheimer’s so it’s possible he didn’t know his wife had died or how to take care of himself because there was no food in his system. Betsy is thought to have died on February 11th while Gene is said to have died on the 17th or 18th.

‘Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage’ star, Emily Osment has filed for divorce after 5 months of marriage. Emily citied ‘irreconcilable differences’ and says she stands by her decisions.

In fact, it’s already been filmed and will air in the Fall. And this is new, staff of the Sussexes were calling their experience ‘truly an honor’ and called Meghan ‘warm’ and ‘genuine.’

Proof that money will get you anything. Turns out Jeff Bezos was working on a James Bond spinoff for Amazon but the producers kept rejecting his ideas. In fact, the producers called Amazon executives ‘idiots. So Jeff paid $1 billion to have them removed from the project.
