Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Nicholas Brendon’s social media posts are drawing attention in the wake of his passing.

Concern is growing among fans as the last clips on his Instagram take on a new meaning, with many noting their unsettling tone.

Among other reels, the actor, best known for his role as Xander Harris on the hit television series, posted the last video on February 1, 2025 with the caption that read, “Candle time with Nicky. Posting my live video from tonight.”

Shortly after Brendon’s passing, his admirers revisited his profile and one commented, “I knew he was not well and in pain with these last videos, wished I lived close so I could check on him, seemed so sad [sad emoji].”

Another worried fan added, “What happened to him? He’s unrecognizable.”

“U aged like 20x anyone from show. So sad,” a third wrote.

A fourth expressed, “RIP Nicholas, thankyou for being part of the Buffy gang, you will sadly be missed [red heart and sad emoji].”

For the unversed, Brendon breathed his last on March 20, at the age of 54. His family confirmed that he passed away in his sleep of natural causes in San Francisco.

Meghan Markle received a special honour after she publicly apologised for her mistake. 

On January 19, the Duchess of Sussex returned to the spotlight with her surprise appearance at the Alliance for Children’s Rights 34th Annual Champions for Children event in Beverly Hills.

She stepped out to support her friend Kelly McKee Zajfen, who is the co-founder of Alliance of Moms. At the event, her philanthropic work was recognised with an award presented to her by the Duchess.

Dressed in a stunning strapless floor-length gown, Meghan was beaming with joy during her unexpected outing.

Not only that, she dropped a video on her official Instagram handle, featuring special moments from a memorable night.

Archie and Lilibet’s mother penned a note, “Proud to honour my forever friend @_heartmom_ for her outstanding work for @allianceforchildrensrights and @allianceofmoms. Kelly, you are one of one.”

Also, Meghan, who videobombed two girls’ TikTok video at the same event, said “sorry” to them for “crashing” their bathroom party. 

In response, the women shared a few delightful photos with the Duchess on social media, with an emoji of a crown.

Meghan received the title of Queen for her kind gesture. 

It’s not all red carpet and applause for Barry Keoghan – and he’s not pretending otherwise.

The 33-year-old actor got candid during a recent chat on SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up, revealing that the internet’s darker corners are starting to take a real toll.

“I think I removed myself from online, but I’m still a curious human being that wants to go on and, if I attend an event or if I go somewhere, you want to see how it was received. And it’s not nice,” Barry said in a clip shared by Elite Daily.

“There’s a lot of hate online. It’s a lot of abuse of how I look.”

And it’s not just a passing annoyance – it’s changing how he lives.

“And I say this being absolute pure and honest to you. It’s becoming a problem,” he admitted.

“So yeah, I don’t have to hide away because I am hiding away. I don’t have to go to places because I actually don’t go to places because of these things. But when that starts leaking into your art, it becomes a problem because then you don’t even want to be on screen anymore.”

That last part hits hard – because when an actor starts avoiding the screen, we all lose.

But the most gut-punch moment? It’s not even about him.

“It is disappointing for the fans, but it’s also disappointing that my little boy has to read all of this stuff when he gets older,” Barry shared.
