Nancy Guthrie’s Alleged Kidnappers Apologize For Her Death, Demand Payment For Safe …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The mystery surrounding the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother has taken another heartbreaking turn.

According to a new report from Air Mail, one of the ransom notes allegedly sent by Nancy Guthrie’s kidnappers included an apology for the 84-year-old’s death, and it appeared to suggest that her body could be returned in exchange for money.

Nancy vanished from her Tucson home on February 1, setting off a massive search effort and an investigation that remains unsolved nearly five months later.

Authorities have long believedmthat Nancy was abducted.

In the days following her disappearance, several ransom messages surfaced.

One of the earliest notes reportedly demanded $4 million in Bitcoin for Nancy’s safe return and warned that the price would increase if payment was not made by a specified deadline.

But according to new reports, a subsequent message sent on February 6 struck a noticeably different tone.

Sources familiar with the investigation claim the note contained an apology for Nancy’s death and floated the possibility of returning her remains for a payment that was never clearly specified.

The report alleges that investigators attempted to trace the sender by transferring a small amount of cryptocurrency to the Bitcoin wallet connected to the ransom demand.

The hope was that the sender would move the funds and create a digital trail for authorities to follow. But that never happened.

The money reportedly sat untouched, and some observers now believe the failed strategy may have cost investigators a critical opportunity during the earliest days of the case.

Throughout the ordeal, Savannah Guthrie and her siblings have made repeated public pleas for information.

In emotional social media videos released earlier this year, Savannah, Annie, and Camron Guthrie addressed whoever may have taken their mother, urging them to come forward and promising they were willing to pay for Nancy’s return.

After receiving the February 6 communication, the family reportedly responded publicly, pleading for Nancy to be brought home. Later that month, Savannah even offered $1 million for information that could lead to answers about her mother’s fate.

Despite months of investigation, authorities have not identified the person responsible for Nancy’s disappearance.

Security footage reportedly captured a suspect near Nancy’s residence on the night she vanished, but no arrests have been made and the case remains open.

For now, Savannah and her family are still searching for answers — and hoping that someone, somewhere, knows what happened to Nancy Guthrie.

Erika Kirk Pays Tribute to Charlie on First Father’s Day Since His Passing

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Sunday marked the first Father’s Day since Charlie Kirk was shot and killed in September of last year.

And his widow, Erika Kirk, marked the occasion with a heartbreaking tribute to the late father of two.

In a heartfelt Instagram post, Erika reflected on the pain of celebrating the holiday without Charlie while also honoring the legacy he left behind for their two young children.

Erika Kirk speaks during the memorial service for her husband, political activist Charlie Kirk at State Farm Stadium on September 21, 2025 in Glendale, Arizona.

“Happy Father’s Day to the best daddy,” she wrote alongside family photos and videos featuring Charlie with their daughter and son.

She went on to say that she “still wrote you your letter,” suggesting that this was an annual Father’s Day tradition in the Kirk family.

“They miss you. I miss you. I just can’t help but thank you, endlessly today. Thank you for loving us so well. Thank you for making me a wife and a mother,” Erika wrote, adding:

“Thank you for our two precious babies that carry pieces of you with them. Thank you for all the times you’ve prayed over our family.

“Thank you for living your life in such a way to be an incredible example to other Fathers. Thank you for all the sacrifices you’ve made. You will forever be an extraordinary father. Forever.

“Today in our hearts we celebrate you like your favorite TPUSA AmFest 2024 walkout.

“You’d always say more fog, more sparklers, more bass and then next with the babies in our arms walking off stage. Our love was integrated, and that is how it’ll remain.”

The post quickly drew an outpouring of support from followers, many of whom offered prayers and words of encouragement as the family continues to navigate an unimaginable loss.

Charlie’s death shocked supporters across the country and left Erika raising the couple’s two children on her own.

Since then, Erika has frequently used social media to share memories of her husband while documenting her family’s grieving process.

She has also spoken publicly about the difficulty of moving forward without the man she once described as “the love of my life.”

Despite the heartbreak, Erika has repeatedly emphasized her faith and her determination to preserve Charlie’s memory for their children. Following his death, she stepped into a leadership role at Turning Point USA and vowed to continue the work that meant so much to her husband.

Father’s Day served as another painful reminder of what the family has lost, but it was also a celebration of what remains.

Through photographs, memories, and stories shared with their children, Erika made it clear that Charlie’s presence continues to be felt long after his passing.

And while this first Father’s Day without him was undoubtedly difficult, she appears determined to ensure that her children never forget the father who loved them so deeply.

Kourtney Kardashian Snubs Scott Disick, Hypes Travis Barker for Father’s Day

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian welcomed baby Rocky Thirteen over two years ago.

Naturally, she showered him with love an affection in a public display of affection for Father’s Day.

Of course, fans couldn’t help but noticing a major snub in the process.

Scott Disick is her ex, but he is the father of three of her kids.

‘Baby daddy’

Kourt spent much of the weekend broadcasting her good times with her family.

On Sunday, June 21, she publicly showered Travis Barker with love.

He is her husband. He is also the father of her youngest child, 2-year-old Rocky Thirteen.

“Baby daddy,” Kourtney wrote on Instagram alongside a black heart emoji.

Notably, baby daddy is an AAVE term that is very useful — to describe a man, often who is not one’s current partner, who is the father of one’s child. Travis is her actual husband.

Sure enough, much of the content that Kourtney shared involved Travis’ parenting.

She and her family visited Lake Como, Italy back in the summer of 2025. She shared throwbacks.

(Among other things, Villa del Balbianello — which overlooks the famous lake — appears in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.)

Kourt’s posts showcased Travis at his most paternal, spending time with precious little Rocky.

But was there something missing from her posts? Yes. Yes there was.

That’s a wrap on Father’s Day!

And no celebration or acknowledgment for Scott Disick, it seems.

Obviously, Kourtney is pretty famously no longer with Scott. That entanglement ended in the Beforetimes.

But Scott is not only still close with some members of her family (like Kris and Khloe), but he’s the father of three of Kourt’s kids.

Kourtney isn’t a corporation. Fathering Mason, Penelope, and Reign doesn’t give Scott a majority share or whatever.

But barring situations where a father is terrible or the exes hate each other, it’s not unusual for moms to give a shout-out to the former partner who fathered three of their kids.

Obviously, some of Kourt’s fans took to her comments to remind her that Travis is only one of the fathers in her life.

(In fact, it’s believed that some of her kids don’t care for Travis or for the marriage.)

Some say that this is just another example of Kourtney disappearing in Travis’ slender shadow.

Others, however, say that she’s just gushing about her husband and doesn’t feel the need to performatively celebrate the ex who went on a bender and boned every 19-year-old model within arm’s reach while she stayed home with the kids like an adult.

If Mason, Penelope, and Reign feel the need to celebrate Scott, they’re welcome to do so. Kourt has moved on.
