Actor and cultural icon Christina Applegate has shared the news of her multiple sclerosis diagnosis. On Twitter, Applegate posted a thread announcing her medical issues. “It’s been a strange journey,” she said. “But I have been so supported by people that I know who also have this condition. It’s been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some asshole blocks it.” Applegate previously beat breast cancer back in 2008.
Hi friends. A few months ago I was diagnosed with MS. It’s been a strange journey. But I have been so supported by people that I know who also have this condition. It’s been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some asshole blocks it.

Kate Beckinsale partners with MRVL Skin for anti-aging line
A-lister and ageless beauty Kate Beckinsale has partnered with skincare company MRVL for a line of luxury anti-aging products. In her first move into the beauty industry, Beckinsale picked MRVL for the project after learning of their proprietary ingredient: Blue Scorpion peptides. According to MRVL, Blue Scorpion peptides have been “clinically proven to help stimulate natural collagen production, fight free radicals, help regenerate symptoms of damaged skin and smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.” The line drops in November, just in time for the holidays, and Beckinsale herself could not be more excited. “I’m so very proud and excited to be working with MRVL Skin,” she said in a release. “Effective skincare is what all women want at any age.”
