Actor Bernard Hill, of Titanic and Lord Of The Rings, has died at 79

In Titanic, Hill played Captain Edward Smith, one of the only characters based on a real person, and in the Lord Of The Rings franchise, he was Théoden, King of Rohan.

Actor Bernard Hill, who delivered a rousing cry before leading his people into battle in The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King and went down with the ship as the captain in Titanic, has died.

Hill, 79, died on Sunday (May 5) morning, his agent Lou Coulson said.

Hill joined the Lord Of The Rings franchise in the second film of the trilogy, 2002’s The Two Towers, as Théoden, King of Rohan. The following year, he reprised the role in Return Of The King, a movie that won 11 Oscars.

In one of the film’s most memorable scenes, Hill’s character fires up his overmatched forces by delivering a battle cry on horseback that sends his troops thundering downhill towards the enemy and his own imminent death.

“Arise, arise, riders of Théoden!” Hill hollers. “Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered! A sword day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now! Ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin and the world’s ending! Death! Death! Death!”

Candace Cameron Bure does not back down over backlash on ‘inappropriate’ pictures with husband

Candace Cameron Bure has been coming under a lot of scrutiny in the media recently. The actress was recently in the news for her comments about ‘traditional marriage’ that not everyone agreed with.

The actress is now making waves for another reason; a picture she posted with her husband.

Candace Cameron Bure met her husband Valeri Bure in 1994 at a hockey game. And two years later on June 22, 1996, they tied the knot and became husband and wife.

Even though they have been married for over 20 years, the two of them are still very much in love and make sure to keep the spark alive.

The playfulness of their marriage was very obvious from a story Bure posted on Instagram. However, some people mistook the playfulness as ‘inappropriate’ and the actress got a lot of backlash from her audience.

And in the face of backlash, Bure did not back down. She instead doubled down and posted the picture on her feed. She shared two pictures of her and her husband sharing the “sweet and spicy” nature of their relationship. In the second photo, Valerie has an arm around his wife’s shoulder and his hand is resting on her chest.

She was told by fans that the picture was a little too ‘racy’ for her as her stature as a ‘Christian celebrity.’ But the actress had a response for those who were upset. She said, “Sorry if it offended you… I’m actually not sorry,” she said while laughing in a follow-up video shared on her Instagram stories. “I’m glad that we have fun together after so many years.”

She said she was just showing what a “good and healthy marriage” looked like 24 years.

“It makes me laugh because it’s my husband,” she further explained in her follow-up Instagram story video. “He can touch me any time he wants and I hope he does.”
