Virgin River s7

Virgin River Renewed for Season 7: Virgin River fans can rejoice since the popular romance drama has been officially renewed by Netflix for a seventh season. The performers expressed their excitement at the show’s continuation in an exuberant video posted on the official Instagram page of the program. Along with a little more hint about what’s coming up next, the video also reminded viewers that Season 6 is approaching.

Ben Hollingsworth, who plays Dan Brady thrilled fans by displaying a cardboard sign that verified the major announcement: “Virgin River… season 7.” Virgin River is now the first scripted English-language drama to reach seven seasons — formally making it one of Netflix’s longest-running programs.

Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith alluded to Season 7’s focus on the changing lifestyles of Mel (Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack (Martin Henderson) as they acclimate to life as newlyweds in an interview with Tudum. Even though the pair will have their fair share of difficulties, he said, their bond will endure. Smith reassured viewers, “I can’t imagine creating a scenario where you think Mel and Jack are going to break up.”

With an emphasis on the “honeymoon phase” as they establish their life together on the farm, the next season promises to delve deeper into their relationship. Smith says that in order to keep the focus of the show on love and connection, the stakes will be emotional tension rather than romantic conflict.

Virgin River is now one of Netflix’s most notable series. Virgin River is currently the longest-running scripted drama on Netflix, even though other series, like Orange is the New Black, have also lasted seven seasons.

A prequel spin-off that centers on the romance of Mel’s parents, Sarah and Everett has been approved, which heightens the anticipation.

It’s evident that Virgin River continues to enthrall viewers, solidifying its status as one of Netflix’s most beloved series, especially with Season 6 on the horizon and Season 7 promising even more.

Shrinking Season 2 Episode 3 Psychological Something-ism (1)

The third episode of Season 2 of Shrinking picks up with a lot of uncertainty about Grace’s legal problems. After the shocking ending of Season 1, in which Grace (Heidi Gardner) pushed her abusive husband Donny off a walking trail, she could now go to jail. A big question is whether Grace will be punished or whether justice will be done for her. Along with her story, Sean (Luke Tennie) and Liz’s growing food truck business runs into problems, and Alice (Lukita Maxwell) faces her anger over the death of her mother.

Key Events Shrinking Season 2 Episode 3:

• Jimmy tries to persuade Donny to drop charges against Grace.
• Grace faces a life-changing legal decision
• Sean and• Liz’s relationship breaks down because of the food truck business.
• Louis is the person Alice confronts about killing her mother

Shrinking Season 2 Episode 3 Recap

At the start of the episode, Jimmy has to deal with the effects of Grace’s extreme choice last season to push her abusive husband Donny off a walking trail. Donny is now going through physical therapy after the fall. When Jimmy sees Donny at the clinic, he tries to talk to him and asks him to drop the charges against Grace. Jimmy brings up the fact that Donny is abusive and how that could hurt his case. Even so, Donny is still stubborn, turning down Jimmy’s plea and not feeling sorry for what he did.

In the end, Jimmy and Brian meet Grace in jail. She is being held while the DA decides what charges to bring against her. There is a big difference between the two possible outcomes; Grace could be charged with aggravated assault and get eight months in prison or she could be charged with second-degree attempted murder and get five years in prison. Grace, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to care about what might happen and acts like she doesn’t care about the situation. As she still deals with the trauma of her abusive relationship, she doesn’t see herself as deserving of sympathy or redemption, which makes Jimmy and Brian surprised by her lack of interest.

A sudden turn of events changes everything: Brian gets a call from the District Attorney’s office telling them that Grace is no longer being charged with anything. The DA decides not to press charges because Donny has a long history of crimes and abuse which would make it hard to win the case. Even though Jimmy and Brian are happy, Grace is really upset. She feels worse about what she did because she thinks it wasn’t right.

The charges were dropped, but Grace still shocked everyone by choosing to go back to Donny. She takes care of him, which puts her back in the cycle of abuse. Jimmy tries one last time to stop her because he is so upset about her choice. He collects messages from Grace’s friends and family that beg her to leave Donny for good. These messages finally convince Grace to leave town and move to Canada with her sister, but her experiences have hurt her deeply, and she doesn’t know what the future holds for her.

Sean and Liz’s Fight

Sean and Liz’s food truck business has been picking up speed, but there are signs that their partnership is starting to weaken. As the company grows, Liz’s bossy behavior starts to cause problems. She tries to control every part of the food truck’s work, which makes Sean mad. He’s thankful that Liz helped him get the business going but he feels suffocated by her constant interference.

Things get worse when Liz makes a big business choice without asking Sean what he thinks. She books a catering job for an event that is way too big for the truck — thinking Sean will just go along with it. Because Sean is fed up with being told he can’t do the job alone— he talks to Liz about it. This causes a heated argument in which Sean says Liz is treating him like a child and not letting him be himself. Liz is hurt by the argument and finds it hard to see things from Sean’s point of view. But she eventually realizes that she’s been going too far.

They are able to find common ground in the end. Liz knows she has been too involved in Sean’s business because she cares about him and wants him to do well. Sean is grateful for Liz’s help, but he makes it clear that he needs to run his own business and make decisions on his own. Their reconciliation shows how complicated their relationship is and sets a more balanced tone for the rest of their time together.

Alice’s Sadness

At the same time, Alice is still having a hard time dealing with her grief over the death of her mother. She feels bad because she can’t stop thinking about confronting the person she thinks caused the accident. Throughout the episode, Alice is more determined than ever to find the man who killed her mother. Even though her father Jimmy tells her not to, Alice decides to find her own way to heal.

There is a tense scene where Alice meets the man she thinks is responsible. She is very angry and hurt — when she finally talks to him, things don’t go as planned. The man feels bad about what he did and seeing that makes Alice rethink her plan to get revenge. She has to face her own feelings and the unresolved grief. she’s been carrying when she fights with him. Alice’s feelings change at this scene; she realizes that staying angry and wanting revenge won’t help her get the closure she needs so badly.

Gaby’s Problems

Gaby’s story in this episode is about the problems she is having with her relationships and with herself. She is dealing with the effects of her breakup with Nico and the complicated emotions that come with them. Gaby tries to keep a positive attitude throughout the episode—but it’s clear that she’s having a hard time inside. She tells Jimmy that she feels lost and doesn’t know what she wants going forward in a heart-to-heart conversation that gives Jimmy a better idea of — how she is feeling.

“Betrayal” Confirmed: Filming Starts in January 2025 in the UK

Shaun Evan (1)

A new spy thriller called Betrayal will start filming in London at the beginning of January 2025. The ITV-commissioned show promises an exciting story of spying, personal conflict, and serious threats to national security, all taking place in the mysterious world of MI5.

Shaun Evans, who has been in movies like Endeavour and Vigil, plays John Hughes — a veteran MI5 agent who is having a hard time with changes in security and problems in his personal life. John used to be at the forefront of major UK counter-terrorism efforts, but now he is having a hard time adapting to the new needs of MI5, where threats have changed and he has to work in a more modern setting.

John meets Ehsan, a British-Iranian informant with ties to the Manchester gang world, on a hunch. This is the beginning of the show. When Ehsan is killed before he can give John important information, John makes the snap decision to kill the killer, which gets him caught up in a web of conspiracy. As John learns more, he has to face not only the threats from outside the UK, but also his failing career, his troubled marriage, and his own inner demons. Mehreen, a new intelligence officer who is taking over John’s job, adds to the tension because they have an undeniable attraction to each other, which makes John’s situation even more difficult.

David Eldridge, who has won awards for his plays, has written Betrayal which is a complicated and emotional story. Eldridge talked about John Hughes’s personality and said that he was a “flawed but likeable man” who was torn between the stresses of family life and the dangerous world of espionage.

The show is made by Mammoth Screen, the same company that made Endeavour. It takes place in both London and Manchester. Damien Timmer, Chief Creative Officer of Mammoth said that the scripts look at the fragile mind of a middle-aged man whose job is to protect the country which comes with a lot of personal and professional risks.

Betrayal is shaping up to be an exciting drama that will keep viewers hooked as they follow John’s journey to find a threat that could put the UK and his own life in danger. Evans is leading the way and Eldridge’s writing is sharp.

The show will air on ITV and ITVX and ITV Studios will handle distribution in other countries. Fans of spy dramas can look forward to Betrayal, which will bring a new, character-driven take to the genre when it starts airing in 2025.

Accused Season 2 Episode 3 Recap — ‘Marcus’ Story’

Accused Season 2 Episode 3 recap--Patrick J. Adams

Accused Season 2 Episode 3 “Marcus’ Story” shows us how a broken friendship and a tech company secret result in disaster. What a moral mess Marcus (Nick Cannon) and his best friend Peter (Patrick J. Adams) are in when they have to deal with the consequences of a mistake in their company’s software that kills a man.

Accused Season 2 Episode 3 Recap

Marcus and Peter are co-founders of Caraxon, a tech company that makes software that can recognize faces. Marcus is a family man with strong morals. He doesn’t seem like the right person to date Peter, who lives a carefree and sometimes risky life. Even though they were different, their friendship and company did very well. But a glitch in their software that led to racial profiling set off a chain of events that neither of them could stop.

Because of a bug in the facial recognition software— the wrong person was identified and a Black man died. Peter fixed the bug without telling Marcus, so he thought the problem was fixed. But when the mistake was made public, their business could have gone bankrupt, and their friendship started to break down because they felt guilty and had to keep it a secret.

Accused Season 2 Episode 3 recap-

The differences between Marcus and Peter’s morals become clear. Marcus feels terrible about being associated with a company that helped cause a man’s death and he is shocked that their software could do such damage.. Peter, on the other hand, is more practical and keeps the problem hidden so they can move on. Peter thought that hiding the bug was the right thing to do for business reasons and to protect their company and their future.

This disagreement over ideas makes things worse between the two friends. Marcus, who values truth and honesty, can’t understand why Peter is willing to hide the truth. As a Black man, Marcus also knows more than Peter did about how the glitch affects black people than Peter ever could. Their argument isn’t just about a mistake in business; it’s also about privilege, race, and the different points of view that come with those things.

Accused Season 2 Episode 3 recap--

It gets really tense between Marcus and Peter when they have to talk about the future of the company. Marcus is torn between his morals and Lycia (Jerrika Hinton) his wife, who wants them to do this because she sees it as a chance to make the family more famous. This is Lycia’s point of view: she doesn’t want to miss the one chance they have to succeed, even if it means giving up some values.

During a heated argument, Peter’s careless behavior and Marcus’s mounting anger lead to a terrible accident. Peter loses his balance during a fight and falls over a banister, killing himself. Even though Marcus didn’t mean to kill his best friend, he now has to deal with the legal consequences.

Marcus is put on trial for killing Peter without meaning to. Peter’s death was clearly an accident, and there isn’t much evidence to suggest Marcus did it on purpose. But the case is made more difficult by the fact that it has racial overtones. The prosecuting attorney, a Black man, plays on people’s feelings about the software bug that led to a wrong death. The widow of the man who died because of the bug also testifies which adds to the tension.

The trial goes on, and it becomes clear that the real problem is much bigger than Marcus or Peter. The episode looks at how the justice system is flawed, how technology keeps racial bias alive, and the moral problems that happen when ethics and profit clash.

Marcus is found not guilty of killing Peter in the end. But the episode leaves viewers with a scary question— Did justice really happen? Even though Marcus was found not guilty. he has to deal with the grief of Peter’s death and the fact that their company played a part in the wrongdoing that killed a man. Marcus and Peter’s friendship may have ended in tragedy but the bigger issues of race, privilege and moral compromise will still be felt long after the trial is over.

The episode “Marcus’ Story” makes you think because it deals with friendship, race and technology in a complicated way. Marcus may have made it through the trial but it will leave him with emotional scars that will never go away. The episode makes me think about how technology affects society and the moral duties that come with having power and privilege.

The Fugitive Task Force is on the hunt for the killer. As time runs out—the team quickly finds a shocking link between the murder and a man who is about to be put to death in Missouri. Tensions rise within the team as the race to solve the case gets tougher. This is especially true for Remy (Dylan McDermott) and Hana (Keisha Castle-Hughes), who are both single and living alone and having their own problems.

FBI: Most Wanted Season 6 Episode 2 Recap

A missing person and a shocking kidnapping

FBI Most Wanted 6x2 recap zach missing

In the first scene of the episode, FBI Special Agent Ray Cannon Jr.(Edwin Hodge) talks about family traditions with his stepson, Caleb. Ray, who used to play football, hopes that Caleb will follow in his footsteps. But Caleb, who is only a freshman, hasn’t decided yet. But Ray’s time with his family is cut short when he is called in for an urgent case: Zach Stolowitz, a teenage boy, has gone missing under strange circumstances.

Some of Zach’s classmates called him a “loser.” He was last seen with two high school girls, Brooke Perkins and Caitlyn Baker, who told him they would take him to a party that night. However, Zach didn’t understand that this party invitation was a trick. His parents are worried and have called the police to report him missing because his car has been left behind and his phone has not been answered. Since local police haven’t found any clues, they ask the FBI to help because they think Zach may have crossed state lines.

The Secrets of High School Life

Will Haggerty, Zach’s best friend, becomes an important figure in the investigation as it goes on. To the FBI, Will says that he couldn’t hang out with Zach the day Zach went missing because he had to study with a SAT tutor. But Agent Remy notices that Will is nervous, which is a red flag. There is evidence that Will is trying to hide something, as their tech-savvy agent Hana finds surveillance footage that shows Zach with Brooke and Caitlyn right before he disappeared.

Soon, it turns out that Brooke and Caitlyn are juniors at the same high school. They told their parents they were going on a trip over the weekend. But this wasn’t true. The girls were holding Zach hostage because they wanted to get even with him.

A Web of Lies and Revenge

The truth is getting scarier as the FBI digs deeper into Zach’s life. Zach, who was very good with computers made deepfake pictures of Maria Tomassi, another student, as a favor for his best friend Will. The changed pictures made it look like Maria had taken sexy pictures of herself, and they quickly went around the school. Katie’s mean joke made Maria kill herself, which was terrible for her family and friends, especially Brooke and Caitlyn.

Brooke and Caitlyn were sad and angry, so they decided to kidnap Zach and make him use his computer skills against Will, whom they thought was just as to blame for Maria’s death. The girls want Zach to make damning proof that will ruin Will’s life, just like it did for Maria.

FBI Lead

The FBI finds out that Zach’s part in Maria’s death was part of a bigger plan. It was his deepfake pictures that brought down Maria. Brooke and Caitlyn were so sad and angry that they kidnapped Zach and told him to use his computer skills to make similar fake pictures of Will as part of their sick plan to get back at him. Brooke is completely set on their cruel plan—— even telling Zach to make a deepfake pornographic video with him and Will in it as “insurance.” Caitlyn, on the other hand, seems unsure.

Things get out of hand as Zach works under pressure to make the video. Zach takes the chance to call for help when a real estate agent comes to the house where he is being held. Because Brooke is scared— she hits Zach—knocking him out and hurting his head badly. Zach’s life is in danger because he is badly hurt and not responding. Brooke and Caitlyn know they’ve gone too far.

The FBI keeps looking for clues, and the case gets trickier as they find more information. The team talks to more high school students to find out how bad the cyberbullying and manipulation were that made Maria want to kill herself. It’s clear that both Zach and Will helped spread the hurtful pictures, but Brooke and Caitlyn are doing more and more dangerous things because they want revenge.

When Will, who feels terrible about what he did to Maria, decides to handle things himself, tensions rise. Will finds Brooke and Caitlyn with his father’s gun and holds them at gunpoint, telling them to lead him to Zach. There is a tense standoff as the girls drive through town with Zach still unconscious in the trunk. Both of them are afraid for their lives.

A Race Against Time

The FBI is following Caitlyn’s car and is very close on them. Will is still waving his gun around and making threats against both Brooke and Caitlyn. Will calls his father in a panic and tells him what he’s done. His father is horrified by what’s going on and begs Will to turn himself in to the police so that more people don’t die. He even calls Remy and begs him to save his son’s life.

In the most important part of the story, Caitlyn decides to stop the car while FBI agents surround them. Brooke, Caitlyn and Will are all being held overnight. As soon as the police open the trunk of the car, they find that Zach has already died from his head injury. Planned to make Zach and Will look bad, the girls’ scheme turned into a murder case. Brooke and Caitlyn are now both charged with kidnapping and murder. Will could also be charged with a crime for his part in spreading the deepfake pictures that caused Maria to kill herself.

The case is over, but the feelings that came with it still show. When Ray Cannon gets home, he thinks about his relationship with Caleb, his stepson. As the episode went on, Ray kept pushing Caleb to follow in his family’s footsteps and play football. But Caleb was lying about going to practices when he really wasn’t interested in the sport. Ray starts to understand how his expectations might be hurting Caleb. At the end of the episode, he decides to stop putting pressure on Caleb and let him find his own way in life.

FBI International Season 4 Episode 2 recap Wes (1)

In the most recent episode of FBI: International, things get very tense when the Fly Team has to deal with a hostage situation that could reveal a much bigger plot. Someone takes a U.S. ambassador hostage in the Netherlands, but their reasons may not be as clear as they seem. It’s more important than ever for new Supervisory Special Agent Wes Mitchell (Jesse Lee Soffer) to do well on his first mission with the team. There are lives in danger, and a dangerous criminal is in charge from jail.

• U.S. Ambassador Coates is taken hostage during a TV interview.
• Armed gunmen demand ransom and a helicopter.
• The Fly Team uncovers the true plot.
• Wes Mitchell races to protect Mila Meyer, a 14-year-old witness in hiding.
• In a tense showdown, Wes fights off the assassin.

FBI: International Season 4 Episode 2 Recap

At the beginning of the episode, Supervisory Special Agent Wesley “Wes” Mitchell gets used to being in charge of the Fly Team. Unfortunately, Wes has to act quickly when an important case comes up: armed gunmen take U.S. Ambassador Coates hostage during a live TV interview in the Netherlands. He is still trying to earn the respect of his team. The masked gunmen demand 40 million euros and a helicopter to help them get away, but it’s not clear why they want these things.

Tensions rise, and Wes gets into a power struggle with both the Diplomatic Protection Service and the local police. Everyone wants a part of the action, but Wes is determined to stay in charge and put the safety of the hostages first. Quick work by the Fly Team lets them quickly figure out that one of the masked gunmen is Frank Bergkamp, who works for the notorious Dutch crime boss Clemens Anholts. Anholts is in jail for killing his American girlfriend, and it turns out that the hostage situation isn’t just about getting money; it’s also about stopping Anholts from being sent back to the U.S.

As the Fly Team learns more about the real plan, they realize that Anholts and Bergkamp want to get into Ambassador Coates’ phone to find Mila Meyer— a 14-year-old girl who is a key witness in Anholts’ murder case. Mila, who has been hiding — saw Anholts’ girlfriend get brutally killed and the criminals will do anything to get rid of her.

In a nail-biting scene, Wes has to race against the clock to get to Mila in time to save her from an assassin. Her whole security team is killed, and only Wes saves her. But the threat is far from over. The killer is still after Wes and Mila, who are running away. Wes won’t leave her behind, even though he’s hurt from a fight on the train earlier. He stays in touch with his team through a burner phone.

When Wes hides in a house to treat his wounds, things get even worse when the killer finds them again. When there is a fight, Mila bravely distracts the killer long enough for Wes to get the upper hand and kill him. The Fly Team shows up just in time to save Wes and Mila from the chaos.

Now that Mila is no longer in immediate danger, she is put in U.S. witness protection and will stay there until she testifies against Anholts. At the end of the episode, Anholts is sent back to the U.S., where he is sent to prison for life because his plan to silence Mila completely failed.

Not only does Wes make it through his first mission as team leader. he also saves Mila from certain death. Mila is getting ready to start a new life with her cousins in Minnesota and the episode ends on a hopeful note. Her testimony will help bring Anholts to justice. Another dangerous mission is over, and the Fly Team must now get ready for whatever danger comes next.

Canary Black locations

Canary Black is an action-thriller movie directed by Pierre Morel. Kate Beckinsale plays Avery Graves, a CIA agent. The story, which was written by Matthew Kennedy, is about Graves, whose husband is taken by terrorists. Graves is put in a tough moral and work situation. In exchange for his life, the kidnappers want her to steal a very important piece of data called “Canary Black.” This secret information could shut down a country’s whole internet system, which could lead to a disaster on a global scale. Graves has to deal with a lot of action and make tough choices in order to save her husband. She has to risk everything, even her loyalty to her country. The movie looks like it will have a lot of intense action and spy-related twists, which will make it an exciting spy thriller.

Where was the movie Canary Black filmed?

Croatia, mostly the cities of Zagreb and Rovinj, were used to film Canary Black. From October 2022 to January 2023, the production took place. The movie was supposed to be filmed in the Czech Republic at first, but some problems meant that Croatia had to be chosen. The country was the perfect place for this high-stakes thriller because of its beautiful buildings and historical sites.

Key Filming Locations: Croatia’s Zagreb

Most of Canary Black was shot in Zagreb, which is the capital of Croatia. Zagreb is famous for its beautiful Austro-Hungarian architecture. And It was a beautiful setting for the movie’s city scenes. The movie was shot in more than 130 places in the city, including many of its beautiful streets and landmarks.

Flower Square on Varšavska Street, the busy European Square near the famous Cathedral of Zagreb, and the well-known Ban Jelacic Square were all interesting places to visit. The movie also used the historic Stone Gate in the Upper Town as a background. It is a building from the 1300s. Maksimir Stadium, which is one of Croatia’s biggest sports arenas, was also used for action-packed scenes with filming taking place on all of its floors and in the basement.

Some parts of Zagreb were closed off to the public while the movie was being filmed and even tram and bus services were stopped so that action-packed scenes could be filmed. Kate Beckinsale hung from roofs and flew over the city on a drone in these scenes, which were full of dangerous stunts.

Rovinj, Italy

Rovinj, a city on the coast known for its brightly colored houses and beautiful views, was used for many movies. For part of the movie, Rovinj was changed into Tokyo, Japan. Places like this were used in scenes where Graves looks for Kenji Nakajima. The charming port city’s unique landscape was a great way to show how busy the streets of Japan are.

The lead actress, Kate Beckinsale, and the rest of the film crew loved their time in Croatia. Beckinsale even wrote on social media how much she loved Zagreb. The team also celebrated Croatia’s win in the 2022 FIFA World Cup quarterfinals, which added a bit of real-life excitement to their making-of. The beautiful cities of Zagreb and Rovinj in Croatia were very important in making the world of Canary Black come to life..

François Uzan, the director talked about how the movie was made and how choosing to shoot in the Middle Ages brought the adventure to life. He said, “We could have put teens in a house like in Scream or imagined a game of social massacre happening in a Haussmann living room, but we chose to make it an adventure and family movie with humor and, of course, thrills.” The filmmakers made a beautiful movie for fans by using real-life medieval sets and staying true to the spirit of the original Werewolves of Miller’s Hollow game.

One of the most famous faces of modern television, Luke Grimes has won over audiences with his rugged performance as Kayce Dutton in Yellowstone. But Luke’s real-life love story has its own fans, even though his on-screen character deals with family and ranch life. People are always interested in his personal life, which makes them wonder about his wife, Bianca Rodrigues. What does she do in Luke’s life, and who is she? We will talk about everything we know about Bianca Rodrigues, her job, and their growing family.

Who is Bianca Rodrigues

Luke Grimes is married to Bianca Rodrigues, a model from Brazil who has been working for a long time. Bianca is making a name for herself in fashion and social media, even though her husband is famous. Bianca was born and raised in Brazil. She then moved to the United States. They became husband and wife in November 2018 and have been together ever since.

Bianca likes to keep her private life mostly to herself, but she is used to being in the spotlight. As a model, she’s been in a lot of different campaigns, from swimwear to high fashion. She often posts sneak peeks of her work on Instagram. Her posts often show off her Brazilian roots by showing her modeling on beaches and in other exotic places that match her bright style.

Their Life Together in Montana

Bianca and Luke have given up the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and moved toward a simpler, more grounded way of life. Their main home is in Montana, which is where Yellowstone is filmed, and they love the easygoing vibe of “Big Sky Country.” Bianca often posts beautiful pictures of Montana’s landscape like sunsets, mountain views, and everyday life on the plains.

Luke and Bianca have been seen together on the red carpet a few times, even though they don’t live a busy life. They were seen together at the Academy of Country Music Awards in 2022—where Bianca looked stunning in a burgundy gown

Luke and Bianca reached another important point in their lives in October 2024; they had a child. Bianca shared a touching photo of the new family of three on Instagram to announce the birth of — their son.

Fans were excited to hear that the couple had a baby, even though they tend to keep personal things private. This is the start of a new chapter in the Grimes family’s life.

Luke Grimes has never been afraid to tell Bianca how much he loves her. He often goes on and on about her in interviews. Luke told USA Today in an honest interview that his wife is a “angel,” which shows how much he loves her. “I’m happily married, and I love my wife very much.” “We’ll always be togethe” he said. Bianca shows Luke her love by calling him “Anjo,” which is Portuguese for “angel,” a lot in her Instagram posts.

Their love, respect, and sense of adventure seem to be what hold them together, whether they’re traveling in their Airstream trailer or just relaxing at home.
