Amanda Peet Provides Positive Health Update Following Her Breast Cancer Diagnosis

Amanda Peetprovided a positive update on her health following her breast cancer diagnosis.

During a Tuesday, March 31, appearance onWatch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, a fan question enquired as to how theYour Friends & Neighborsactress, 54, was feeling.

"Well thank you Eric, I'm doing great," PeettoldCohen, 57, in response to the question. The fan also quizzed Peet, who revealed her 2025 diagnosis in aNew Yorkeressay published on March 21, on valuable advice she'd received as a result of her diagnosis.

"The best piece of advice, I would say, is 'Enjoy it while we're here,' Peet responded, to which Cohen agreed before adding, "That is something to live by every day."

Sarah Paulson Praises Best Friend Amanda Peet's 'Profoundly Gorgeous' Essay About Cancer Battle

Peet's essay detailed that she was informed ofher diagnosis"last fall" after undergoing what she had presumed would be a "routine scan" that examined her breast health. "For many years, I've been told that I have 'dense' and 'busy' breasts — not as a compliment but as a warning that they require extra monitoring," she wrote before revealing that her physician "didn't like the way something looked on the ultrasound."

After undergoing a biopsy, Peet recalled how her sample was walked over and hand-delivered to a pathology department for review. "That's when I knew," Peet wrote, noting that her doctor shared news of her stage 1 breast cancer results the following day. "The tumor 'appeared' to be small, but I would need an MRI after the holiday weekend to determine 'the extent of disease.'"

The MRI showed a second mass that was ultimately benign, which meant that Peet was not advised to undergo a double mastectomy or chemotherapy. "I would only need a lumpectomy and radiation," she wrote. Once her radiation course had completed, Peet returned a clear scan in January.

Later that month, Peet's mother, who was in hospice care, died.

Tragically, Peet's father died in 2025 amid Peet's cancer ordeal. She reflected on the time in her essay, writing, "As soon as my dad's corpse was out of sight, I was free to panic about my cancer again."

In an interview withE! News, published on Tuesday, March 24, Peet opened up about sharing her diagnosis withher children. (Peet and husbandDavid Benioff, the cocreator ofGame of Thrones, share daughters Frances, 19, and Molly, 15, and son, Henry, 11.)

"They've been great," she told the outlet. "I definitely had to get myself together before including them. The hard part was realizing that nothing is certain and there was going to be no perfect time to tell them."

Man found dead inside police SUV after 3 days. 'We want answers,' family says

Video released by the Azusa Police Department this week shows the moment a man was freed from jail before he stepped into an unoccupied police car where he was found dead days later.

The surveillance video released Monday shows Eric Valencia, 37, after he was released from jail on March 23 around 1 p.m., according toKABC.He walked up to a parked patrol car outside the station. Valencia got into the back of a SUV andshut the door behind him.

Valencia had been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and child endangerment on March 20 and held over the weekend before being released, said Azusa Police Chief Rocky Wenrick at a news conference.

"Mr. Valencia was released from custody with no apparent signs of distress," Wenrick said during the conference,according to KABC."Surveillance video shows Mr. Valencia unlawfully entering the rear seat area of patrol unit 37."

Valencia was initially pulled over for driving without headlights on and police suspected he was under the influence based on signs of watery, bloodshot eyes and the smell of alcohol in the car, Wenricktold Fox during an interview.

Two children, ages 3 and 11, were in the car with Valencia, Wenrick added. Valencia had a blood alcohol level twice the legal limit during his arrest.

Valencia was freed on March 23 and given his property, cellphone and food, according to Wenrick. His body was found inside the unlocked SUV three days later when Wenrick told the fleet maintenance crew to take the patrol cars to get washed.

Valencia's cellphone was found in working order and he never called 911 for help, according to Wenrick.

Officials explained out-of-service vehicles are often parked for days or weeks while awaiting equipment installation. Typically, law enforcement vehicles cannot be unlocked from the back seats.

"We're gonna do our best in the investigation to figure out why Mr. Valencia walked out and got in the vehicle," Wenrick said. "Hopefully we'll be able to provide closure to the family and for our own sake of knowing why that decision was made and why he did what he did."

Valencia's sister-in-law Julia McCormick told NBC4 that his family wants closure.

"Come to find out that he was here in a car the whole time. The whole time," she said. "We want to know what happened. Please, please, we want answers."

Authorities said that the department's out-of-service cars are parked outside while they're waiting for equipment to be installed. Law enforcement vehicles can't normally be unlocked from the back seat.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner is conducting an investigation and the cause of death wasn't available.

Valencia's family told KABC that Valencia lived less than a mile away and didn't have any medical conditions.

"They never even called me back. No one at the police department ever called me back to let me know that he was found on Thursday morning. The only phone call I got was from the coroner's investigator to let me know he was already passed," a family member said.

King Charles Will Not Be Able to Meet Epstein Victims During U.S. Visit amid Ongoing Investigations

Ahead of King Charles' visit to the U.S. next month, some lawmakers have called for the monarch to meet with Jeffrey Epstein victims

NEED TO KNOW

• PEOPLE understands that the King will not be able to meet with survivors during the trip because of concerns that it will prejudice ongoing police investigations in the U.K.

• King Charles and Queen Camilla have both affirmed their continued support for Epstein survivors in past statements about the former Prince Andrew's ties to Epstein

Despite calls from some lawmakers forKing Charlesto meet with Jeffrey Epstein victims during his upcoming visit to the United States, such a meeting will not be possible.

Due to ongoing U.K. investigations into matters related to Epstein, King Charles and Queen Camilla will not be able to meet with survivors during the state visit in late April, PEOPLE understands.

Sources indicate that the concern is that anything emerging from such a meeting could potentially affect or prejudice the work of British law enforcement or any legal action that may or may not follow.

Over the last year, the King has been navigating the fallout from Epstein's ties to his brother, the formerPrince Andrew, and Andrew's ex-wife,Sarah Ferguson. Andrew, 66, has repeatedly denied wrongdoing.

Apalace statement released in October 2025, when King Charlesmoved to strip his younger brother of his royal titles and honorsover his connections to Epstein, said that the monarch and Queen Camilla "wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse."

Following Andrew's arrest in February, the King and Queenreleased another statement, which contained their first direct reference to Andrew's "conduct" as well as a renewed statement of support for Epstein's victims.

"The King has made clear, in words and through unprecedented actions, his profound concern at allegations which continue to come to light in respect of Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor's conduct," the palace said in the statement on Feb. 9.

"While the specific claims in question are for Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor to address, if we are approached by Thames Valley Police, we stand ready to support them as you would expect," the statement continued.

"As was previously stated, Their Majesties' thoughts and sympathies have been, and remain with, the victims of any and all forms of abuse," they concluded.

The King and Queen's state visit to the U.S. was confirmed on March 31. Though exact dates and events have yet to be announced, it is expected that the King will address a joint session of Congress.

Rep. Ro Khanna, one of the most vocal members of Congress calling for justice and transparency regarding the full Epstein files, was the one whopenned an open letterto the King calling for him to meet with the victims.

"As author of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, I respectfully ask that you privately meet with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's and Ghislaine Maxwell's abuse, so they may speak to you directly about the ways powerful individuals and institutions failed them. Survivors want this meeting," Khanna wrote in his missive to the King.

"I make this request in light of recent developments in the United Kingdom, including renewed scrutiny of individuals and institutions with ties to Epstein and his network," he continued. "These developments have raised serious questions about conduct, access, and whether positions of public trust were misused or whether public institutions helped shield wrongdoing. Your call for a 'full, fair and proper' investigation, and for the law to take its course, recognizes the seriousness of these concerns."

"As you are aware, this is not solely an American matter. Epstein's network had significant ties to the United Kingdom through Ghislaine Maxwell, through Epstein's relationships with British public figures, and through the social and political circles in which he operated...A meeting with survivors would provide an opportunity to identify any additional information British institutions and individuals may be able to share and open a dialogue about whether there will be a full accounting of how Epstein's and Maxwell's network operated in the United Kingdom. It would also ensure that survivors are heard directly and that these matters are addressed with transparency, seriousness and accountability."

Former “Price Is Right ”Producer Launches Shocking Attack Against Bob Barker's Accusers

The Price Is Right's complicated history, which includes accusations of discrimination and sexual harassment, is dissected on E!'s Dirty Rotten Scandals: The Price Is Right

NEED TO KNOW

• In response to the discussion around the documentary, former producer Roger Dobkowitz shared his thoughts in a lengthy Facebook post

• Barker hosted The Price Is Right from 1972 to 2007 and remained a beloved public figure through his death in 2023

A member ofThe Price Is Rightteam is speaking out inBob Barker's defense.

Roger Dobkowitz, a former producer on the game show, shared a statement on Instagram sharing his thoughts on E!'s docuseries,Dirty Rotten Scandals, which dedicated two episodes to exploring the environment behind the scenes ofThe Price Is Rightduring Barker's time hosting.

Dobkowitz first joined the game show team as a production assistant in 1974, becoming a producer on the show in 1984. He was at the show until mid 2008.

Dobkowitz called the docuseries, which featured different members of the show's team from the late 1970s through the early 2000s, a "hit piece" against Barker.

"Many of my friends have asked me for my comments in regards to the E documentary that was recently shown on their network. However, up until now, I avoided commenting on it because I didn't want to add any social traction to such an obvious 'hit piece.' The 'documentary' should just quietly disappear into the bottom of a TV equivalent of a waste basket along with all the other forgotten so-called 'exposes,' " Dobkowitz wrote in aFacebook post.

Sharing his own thoughts, he continued, "This so-called 'expose' makes me realize that there are some people in this world who will happily exaggerate and create falsehoods in order to justify a personal, hateful vendetta against a person in order to draw attention to themselves. Making the situation worse is the fact that the accused is deceased, and therefore, making it impossible for the accused to defend himself. The adjective 'brave' should never be used in reference to a person attacking a dead person."

Dobkowitz continued, "Most people in society and individuals move on with their lives, especially after courtrooms have settled disputes and they are closed. Most people are happy that a headache in their lives is over. Such closure is usually a life marker to remind the person to grow and put things behind them. When someone feels the compulsion to constantly bring it up for another 30 years is a sign that something could be wrong with their capacity to reason maturely."

The producer discussed the possibility of writing a book, adding, "My 36 years of observations with Bob, the models, and the staff will clear up lots of misconceptions and dismiss many wrongful accusations. The show was a happy place…our working environment was the envy of other shows. Staff rarely quit...the dozens of women who were in our repertoire of models came back year after year, happy to be on our show."

"The only unhappy people, as would be found in any company, were the ones that didn't get the raise they wanted, the ones that didn't get the promotion they thought they deserved, and the ones that were terminated for not doing their job. Of course, we did have a small handful of those people, but far, far, less than other companies had. I was there for 36 years. I was on that stage."

Dobkowitz isn't the only person to come forward in defense of Barker. The late host's longtime representative, Roger Neal, also shared a statement refuting the claims in the documentary.

"Barker was and is beloved, and people to this day love him," Neal toldUSA Today.  "He was part of the fabric of American pop culture. He was the greatest MC in TV history. I was honored to have represented him."
