"Casino Royale" actress Joanna Pettet has died.

Her manager, Pam Dubois, shared the sad news on social media, telling The Hollywood Reporter she passed Tuesday at Temecula Valley Hospital in California.

She died exactly 31 years after her son, Damien Cord, passed away at age 26 from a heroin overdose. She shared Damien with actor Alex Cord.

Joanna played a spy in 1967's "Casino Royale," which starred David Niven as James Bond. She was also known for playing one of the 8 Vassar graduates in the 1996 film, "The Group." She was also in the 1968 Western, "Blue," in which she starred opposite Terence Stamp.

She starred in a number of television films, including 1974's "Welcome to Arrow Beach," 1978's "The Evil" -- both horror movies.

She also appeared on TV, acting in four episodes of Rod Serling’s NBC early 1970s anthology series "Night Gallery" and landed a recurring role in "Knots Landing" in 1983 as homicide detective Janet Baines.

Joanna studied acting at Neighborhood Playhouse and landed a handful of Broadway roles before breaking into TV and film, such as in "Poor Richard," which saw her take the stage opposite Alan Bates and Gene Hackman.

Interestingly enough, she was one of the last people to see Sharon Tate alive -- she and fellow actress Barbara Lewis enjoyed a lunch rendezvous with her hours before Tate and four others were murdered by Charles Manson's followers in August 1969.

She was 83.

Jaime King and her son skipped Taylor Swift's wedding weekend ... even though he's the pop star's godson.

Jaime and her son, Leo, were both notably absent from Taylor's star-studded, 1,000-person wedding to Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden on Friday ... but Jaime's publicist told TMZ they had a separate celebration because Leo is 10 years old.

The publicist said ... "Leo Thames is still too young for a large adult wedding celebration, but he and his mother were able to joyfully celebrate Taylor and Kelce’s marriage in his own very special, age-appropriate way during his summer break."

Savannah Guthrie's latest absence from "Today" has viewers wondering if it's connected to the kidnapping case involving her mom ... but TMZ has learned that's not what's going on.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Savannah is off for a few days to spend time with her family, and her absence has nothing to do with the investigation into the Nancy Guthrie abduction.

Savannah was absent from the NBC morning show for a second straight day Thursday, with Laura Jarrett filling in alongside Craig Melvin after Sheinelle Jones stepped in Wednesday.

Donald Trump is changing Air Force One jets like he changes socks ... flying out of the NATO summit in Turkey in an old jet, stopping in England and getting on his new one ... and the flip-flop is all on video.

Check out the clip ... after Trump landed at Royal Air Force Mildenhall base in England on Thursday, he walked down the stairs of an old AF1, strolled across the tarmac and boarded the new AF1 -- a gift from Qatar.

As for why POTUS is using two planes and a layover on his way home from the NATO summit ... Trump says he wanted U.S. troops stationed at the base to tour the new plane and he also suggested Iran was trying to kill him as he left Turkey ... plus, there are reports the old AF1 has better defenses than the new one.

Black Sabbath Drummer Bill Ward has announced he's mostly confined to a wheelchair at this point in his life -- but he tells fans he's still one hell of a drummer!

The 87-year-old musician shared the life update on X Wednesday, telling fans they will be seeing him in a wheelchair in public more because although he can walk, he "can’t walk very far without needing to rest."

He explained, "We started using the wheelchair about 18 months ago, mostly in airports. I became 78 years old on May 5th 2026. I was a long distance walker, I’ve walked in many different parts of the world, and I’m still a drummer.  I can still play pretty good for 78 years old."

Guess this Wolf is on the hunt for cougars ... that's what Dylan Wolf is doing when it comes to Bunnie XO.

We got the 24-year-old "Calabasas Confidential" star leaving Barney's Beanery in WEHO on Wednesday night, and -- of course -- we had to ask him about his seemingly ongoing fling with 46-year-old Bunnie and their July 4th makeout sesh in Nashville.

Dylan puts it like this ... "Sometimes a cowboy wants to hunt cougars."

The dude was wearing a cowboy hat as he got all philosophical ... and he also told us he's got a lot of love for both Bunnie and her estranged husband, Jelly Roll, and respects that they have "a lot going on right now."

NATO is getting dicey nowadays ... Turkey's president gave every world leader at the summit custom revolvers ... but some of heads of state were completely unaware the guns came with live ammunition!!!

Here's the deal ... Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan gave the stunning pieces of craftsmanship -- engraved with the names of the intended recipients -- as a parting gift to each world leader attending the two-day NATO summit in Ankara ... and Belgian prime minister Bart De Wever was shocked to discover his gift had bullets packed right beside it!

Belgium's leader didn't open the gift before flying home with it ... and when he landed back in Brussels Wednesday, he was surprised to learn he was traveling with a golden gun and six rounds of live ammo ... handing it over to airport police.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were seen dining together in Canada just hours before Justin Baldoni spoke out for the first time about the whole "It Ends With Us" scandal.

TMZ obtained photos of Blake and Ryan hanging out on Wednesday afternoon ... with the couple grabbing a late lunch on the rooftop of a Mexican restaurant.

Our sources say Ryan left the eatery first and walked to his vehicle parked in a lot nearby. Shortly thereafter, Blake exited the restaurant with two assistants and waved goodbye to staff before they went shopping in a boutique store.

Attorney Ben Crump is raising concerns over the disappearance and death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells ... saying there are certainly "contradictions" in the stories being told that he plans to get to the bottom of.

The civil rights and catastrophic injury attorney appeared on ABC News Wednesday night, saying there are so many questions left unanswered, noting ... "All we know is Nolan is dead."

Ben explained the family has "concerns" about the state of Mississippi investigating his death, and the fact that he was the only Black kid in a group of white teens, who could potentially have "culpability."

Furthermore, Ben said there are conflicting accounts from witnesses about whether Nolan said he was staying behind with a girl or planned to get back on the boat with his friends to continue their July 4th celebrations.

Jennifer Lopez built a hit around her booty ... but it's her décolletage that's doing all the talking in Paris ... because she's showing off the girls!!!

The triple threat has been in Paris this week to view the haute couture fall/winter collection ... and she's been putting on a fashion show of her own in a series of low-cut tops.

Take a look ... Jennifer's plunging, mostly sheer, sparkly dress leaves little to the imagination.

In another look, a puffy white fur-trimmed coat draped over her shoulders offers just a glimpse of her bra.

The Boys in Blue are making a return trip to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue on July 23, where they'll be honored for their second W.S. title in two years, and POTUS is pumped.

“President Trump is excited to welcome the Los Angeles Dodgers BACK to the White House to celebrate their World Series championship!" W.H. Spokeswoman Taylor Rogers tells TMZ Sports.

Now that there's a date set, it puts to bed endless speculation about whether Shohei Ohtani's squad would once again make the trip to the nation's capital.

Charlie Sheen's ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, is about to receive a hefty sum after she claimed the actor owed her $15 million in unpaid child support, but it's a lot less than that number.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, the exes reached an agreement, and Charlie will shell out $500,000 to Brooke to settle the issue. He will pay her $250,000 on or before this Friday, with the second half due on or before September 1. The Sun broke the story.

The half-a-mil will cover child support arrangements and interest from March 2011 through July 2026. The agreement also states that, starting on July 1, each parent will be financially responsible for the kids while in their custody.

Hearn entered a not guilty plea Thursday morning during his arraignment ... a move that's in line with the fact he told us "every American should be alarmed" after he was indicted.

As you know, this case is being prosecuted by U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro, and she is adamant Hearn defiled the monument.

Conor McGregor is itching to get busy Saturday night -- not just in the Octagon, but after his fight with Max Holloway too.

Mystic Mac spoke with the media ahead of his big UFC comeback five years in the making ... and revealed his new approach to this fight camp -- no sex.

McGregor was initially asked to address critics who might say he no longer has the same motivation he had earlier in his career ... and he shot it down with a passionate response.

"If I didn't have the fire or the hunger, yet I'm up against one of the most active bodies in the fight game in Max Holloway, I just think it's silly to say this," the former champ-champ said Wednesday night.
