Saks Global Rebrands as Exemplar Luxury Group After Bankruptcy Exit

Saks Global, the parent company of Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman, officially emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy Friday with fewer stores, less debt, a more focused strategy to pamper the affluent — and a new nameNEW YORK -- Saks Global, the parent company of Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman, officially emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy Friday with fewer stores, less debt, a more focused strategy to pamper the affluent — and a new name.The company said Friday that the new entity will be called Exemplar Luxury Group, and with an improved balance sheet, including a nearly 75% debt reduction and $500 million in extra financing. Its CEO, Geoffroy van Raemdonck, said the New York-based company is ready for its next chapter after navigating several tumultuous years.“Today is really a brand new day for the organization and a new day where these three iconic banners have the right funding, the right equity and a bright future ahead of them,” van Raemdonck told The Associated Press on Friday during a phone interview.Van Raemdonck said that the new name signifies the company's focus on having an exemplary shopping experience — the best merchandise, and better personalized service with customers, with help from its sales associates and the treasure trove of data it has on its customers. The company employs more than 1,500 sales associates who have sold more than $1 million of goods each, he said.Saks Global had filed for bankruptcy protection in January of this year, buffeted by rising competition and the massive debt it took on to buy its rival in the luxury sector, Neiman Marcus, in July 2024.Popular ReadsBefore the bankruptcy, there were 33 Saks stores and 36 Neiman Marcus locations, according to the company, as well as its Bergdorf Goodman store on Fifth Avenue and roughly 70 Saks Off 5th discount stores.Now, there are a total of 49 stores — 15 Saks Fifth Avenue stores, 33 Neiman Marcus stores and its Bergdorf Goodman store. The company shuttered most of its Saks Off Fifth discount stores, and it now has 12 outlets, the company said. Exemplar Luxury Group said it has been teaming up with Pentwater Capital Management and Bracebridge Capital throughout its restructuring process. Both firms will have two representatives on the seven-person board. In addition, van Raemdonck as well as former Ulta Beauty CEO Dave Kimbell and Philippe Schaus, who most recently served as Global CEO of Moët Hennessy, will serve on the board, the company said. .

Heartbroken Dad Opens Up About the Final Call with His Kids New

Heartbroken Dad Opens Up About the Final Call with His Kids

The four children found dead alongside their mother and grandmother in an upstate New York home appeared “happy” during their final conversation with their heartbroken father, he revealed Friday. Brady Harmon recalled the last time he spoke with his kids during a roughly 15-minute Facetime call on June 7.“They seemed like happy little kids,” he told The Post. Mechanicville police discovered the corpses of Harper Harmon, 13, Hudson Harmon, 11, and twins Gavin and Gracelynn Harmon, both 10, inside an apartment Tuesday, where investigators believe their grandmother fatally poisoned them and their mother, Sarah Myers, 44.  “They seemed like happy little kids,” father Brady Harmon (pictured) told the Post about his final conversation with his four children. Facebook/Brady Harmon“Harper and Grace would show me their drawings, Hudson would show me their cat and Gavin would show me something he built,” the grieving dad said.Harmon, 46, hadn’t seen his kids since 2019, but had recently been granted two months of custody – which was set to begin July 1. “I was supposed to be flying out on the 30th, gathering my kids and flying them home, then having them there for 60 days,” explained Harmon, who lives in Salt Lake City, Utah.Harmon and Sarah Myers shared the four children who were found dead alongside their mother and grandmother in an upstate New York home late Tuesday. Facebook/Brady HarmonAs he was preparing for their arrival, local cops knocked on his door late Tuesday to break the unthinkable news.“They say time heals all wounds, but this is a gaping hole that will never heal … it will never go away,” he mumbled, his voice cracking. The plan is to bury his children in Utah – far away from their mother, Harmon told The Post. “I don’t believe anyone who can’t protect them should be anywhere close to them. If she had anything to do with it, that’s just another reason why,” he said of his ex-wife – adding that the arrangements are part of his “responsibility and duty as a parent.”Heart-wrenching photos shared by Harmon on Facebook before 2019 show two of the children cuddling with their father during a nap on the couch.  Facebook/Brady HarmonOld heart-wrenching photos shared by Harmon on Facebook show the smiling children clad in butterfly and dinosaur costumes for Halloween, playing on a swing-set and cuddling with their father during a nap on the couch. The children’s maternal grandmother, Amy Steadman – whom police believe may have carried out the suspected mass poisoning – had lived with the family at one point during Harmon and Myers’ decade-long relationship, he said.  “She was never really a cordial, warm person to be around … it was very arm’s distance, I guess,” Harmon said of his former mother-in-law. Still, she appeared to have a close bond with the children. “She was just a doting grandma, you know, she’d spoil the kids – the grandkids,” he added. A hand-written note discovered inside Steadman’s Harris Avenue home – where responding officers couldn’t identify the bodies because they were so badly decomposed – “strongly suggests” that the grandmother was “involved” in the deaths, Mechanicville Police Chief Bill Rabbitt revealed during a press conference Thursday. Evidence recovered so far in the investigation, including a hand-written note at the scene, “strongly suggests that Amy Steadman was involved in the deaths,” Mechanicville Police Chief Bill Rabbitt revealed Thursday. Facebook / Amy SteadmanOne of the children was stabbed, while the rest appear to have been poisoned – possibly in a fit of rage after Steadman allegedly became resentful over Harmon’s recent custody win, sources told Channel 13.“There is recovered evidence from inside the apartment indicating intentional poisoning — to include numerous prescriptions and over-the-counter medications,” Rabbit said.“Evidence recovered during the investigation, including a handwritten note, and other circumstantial evidence, strongly suggests that Amy Steadman was involved in the deaths.”Syringes were found inside the home and investigators believe the children may have been injected with drugs, sources also told the outlet. Investigators were “awaiting results from the crime lab and other investigative findings before releasing more details” Friday, Rabbitt told The Post, as the probe continues.

Amal Clooney Opens Up About Her 'Easier' Life Before Marrying George

Amal Clooney shared that it was “easier” to navigate her life and career before her high-profile marriage to George Clooney. “It was easier when I could decide what kind of exposure I got,” the human rights attorney said during an appearance earlier this month at a Cartier Dialogues event in Bangkok. “It was something new to navigate,” she added, per the Daily Mail. Elsewhere in the interview, the mom of two, 48, reflected on how she was previously able to keep her personal life and career separate. Amal Clooney, pictured above with husband George in 2025, reflected on how her life and public image have become more complicated since they married. GC ImagesAmal, seen here with George in April, said during an appearance in Bangkok earlier this month, “It was easier when I could decide what kind of exposure I got.” Getty Images for FLC“It was a weird phenomenon,” she said, per the outlet. “I used to have my work life and my personal life, and they could look quite different, and I was able to not have them mix… and then I got married and that changed quite a lot.” Amal explained, “At first I was kind of conscious of that one-dimensional view where I felt like, well, I can’t be seen wearing this dress or doing this because I’m in front of a judge on Monday and I don’t want the judge to… but you know it just doesn’t matter as much as living your life.” She added, “Ultimately if you’re good at what you do, that is going to shine through or not.” Amal, seen here in 2023, said it was a “weird phenomenon” to meld her personal and professional images after the high-profile marriage. Getty ImagesThe power couple, seen here in January, married in 2014. Penske Media via Getty ImagesAmal clarified that she “wouldn’t allow that factor to stop me from doing things that were important for my family or for my relationship.” Amal married the “Ocean’s 11” star in a lavish, star-studded ceremony in Italy back in 2014. They’ve since welcomed twins Ella and Alexander, now 9 years old.

Jane Seymour and Joe Lando: The Breakup Detail Fans Can't Ignore New

Jane Seymour and Joe Lando: The Breakup Detail Fans Can't Ignore

Former costars Jane Seymour and Joe Lando’s onscreen love affair on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman carried over to real life — but their offscreen romance didn’t last long. The pair chatted to Entertainment Tonight about their reunion on AcornTV’s Harry Wild in a TikTok video posted on Friday, June 26, with Seymour, 75, laughing while insisting that it was Lando’s idea for them to “just be friends.” “It was my fault,” Lando, 64, confessed, with Seymour adding. “I think it was your choice. I was a little sad. But then I also did the math and I realized that you had planned to have a life that didn’t include suddenly having two other children.” At the time, Seymour had already shared two children — daughter Katherine, 44, and son Sean, 40 — with her third husband, Dylan Flynn. (She later welcomed twin sons, John and Kristopher, 30, with her fourth husband, James Keach. Seymour and Keach split in 2015.) Lando’s rugged outdoorsman Byron Sully was the most popular love interest for Seymour’s title character, Dr. Michaela Quinn, during the CBS drama’s six-season run from 1993 to 1998. “I think, actually, the fact that we did not end up having a relationship saved our relationship,” Seymour told her costar. “The best part of our relationship, we’ve kept and grown up, which is that we really, genuinely adore each other.” Seymour added, “[Joe] has a fabulous wife and I have a pretty good man in my life!” Lando has been married to Kirsten Barlow for 29 years and they share four children while Seymour announced her engagement to musician John Zambetti earlier this month. In 2019, Seymour was less light-hearted about her split from Lando, recalling that it was “difficult” and “tough” to work with him after they broke up. “We didn’t actually talk to each other, other than in dialogue or making out for about six or seven years,” Seymour exclusively told Us Weekly at the time. “We, obviously, clearly loved one another and realized we couldn’t be actually in real-life together. I think we just played it [off] as Michaela and Sully.” The two have since mended fences and are even working together again on Harry Wild, in which Seymour plays a retired literary professor who solves mysteries in her spare time. (Lando joined Harry Wild in season 5 as pathologist Pierce Kennedy.) “The fans love seeing the two of us do almost anything together, but they wrote this for him,” Seymour told Us earlier this month. She added, “I’m so grateful Joe and I have found some material we can do together right now. A new generation of young people are watching Harry Wild that are now going, ‘Wait a minute, what is that Dr. Quinn thing?’ Then they [watch and discover] Dr. Quinn is so current. We’re talking about racism, we’re talking about different cultures, religions, we’re talking about choices in medicine … and on and on and on.” Harry Wild season 5 airs on AcornTV.

Arizona Officer Under Fire After Shocking Footage Emerges New

Arizona Officer Under Fire After Shocking Footage Emerges

Newly released surveillance footage shows an Arizona police officer roughing up a 9-months-pregnant woman in handcuffs at a booking facility last year — as a grand jury indictment has forced the female cop out of the force.In the footage, Carri Carrico is seen shoving the 21-year-old victim into a wall and dragging her to a bench at the facility in Buckeye outside Phoenix in November 2025. The former officer is also seen swinging at the woman’s head. ABC15 ARIZONAThe pregnant woman was taken to the hospital with a contusion and a concussion, according to a court filing. She told police that Carrico hit her after the officer took her into custody for reckless driving.Carrico’s body camera also showed her verbally berating the woman, calling her “gross,” “nasty,” and “an a—.”The officer is also accused of assaulting a man in custody two months later, punching him in the head as two other officers escorted him. Carrico slugged the man, who was suspected of domestic violence and aggravated assault, after he head-butted her, footage shows.The man claims she threw the punch while he was restrained. Buckeyeaz“She tore my shirt,” he is heard saying in the footage. “She punched me in the face when I was already restrained.”Carrico responded by threatening the man with violence.“I will smash you so hard into this f—ing wall you won’t see straight,” she said. “Do you understand me? Do you f—ing understand?”On May 27, a grand jury indicted her on two counts of aggravated assault for both incidents. She has pleaded not guilty.Carrico went on unpaid leave last month after the charges were announced and resigned from the Buckeye Police Department on June 4. She had spent several years with the department after nearly a decade with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office in California.She admitted during an internal investigation that video of her with the pregnant woman “looks really ugly,” but she nonetheless defended herself. “I will say I’ve never once in my life open-hand slapped or struck anybody. And in this moment, I just think the only thing that I did was revert to my training,” she said.A supervising sergeant said in internal review records obtained by ABC15 that her actions were “very aggressive” and “definitely over the top and unnecessary.”The former officer received a Hero Award from the Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) organization last year, and appeared in an episode of COPS in 2022 while she was with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office.Her trial is scheduled for November.Download The California Post App, follow us on social, and subscribe to our newsletters California Post News: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, WhatsApp, LinkedInCalifornia Post Sports Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, XCalifornia Post Opinion California Post Newsletters: Sign up here!California Post App: Download here!Home delivery: Sign up here!Page Six Hollywood: Sign up here!

They were also seen spending time together in New York City back in 2019 — but after rumors they were dating again emerged, she quickly shot down the speculation, saying in a since-deleted tweet, “Spoiler for the rest of this year / probably my life: [I’m dating] no one.”Grande and Alvarez were briefly romantically linked after the backup dancer joined the Grammy winner for her Honeymoon Tour in 2015.Grande was said to have been hanging out with friends, including Alvarez, for her 33rd birthday.

Flu Outbreak at Air Force Base Sparks Debate Over Vaccine Policy New

Flu Outbreak at Air Force Base Sparks Debate Over Vaccine Policy

A flu outbreak at the Air Force's basic training hub in San Antonio is worsening, according to two sources familiar with the situation.As of Wednesday, the number of cumulative cased linked to a flu outbreak at Lackland Air Force Base, part of Joint Base San Antonio, had reached 275, according to sources familiar with the matter. That's up from 222 cases reported on Tuesday.As of Tuesday, four people had been hospitalized, two people familiar with the matter told ABC News previously. This marks a sharp increase from the 159 cases and two hospitalizations reported last week. The death of one recruit remains under investigation, though it is not yet clear whether it is tied to the outbreak, the sources said.The outbreak is unfolding just two months after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made the annual flu shot optional for troops, scrapping the military's requirement for it, which dates to 1945, a move breaking with longstanding public health directives."Our new policy is simple: If you, an American warrior entrusted to defend this nation, believe that the flu vaccine is in your best interest, then you are free to take it; you should. But we will not force you," Hegseth said in April. Even so, the services have already been given exceptions to Hegseth's policy according to Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell in a statement provided to ABC News. As part of those exceptions to the policy, the Army, Navy and Air Force are once again requiring flu shots for basic trainees, according to officials.In the Air Force, only about 40% of its new trainees at Joint Base San Antonio had a flu vaccination when the outbreak started in early June, according to the two sources.   Front view of the Chapman Training Annex entry gate in San Antonio, Texas, Aug. 17, 2024.

Troops are also constantly stressed, and exhausted, conditions which can leave the immune system vulnerable.Keon McDaniel, the Air Force recruit who died, was in his sixth week of basic training when he experienced a medical emergency on June 12, according to the Air Force. Recruits undergo a medical screening before they can enlist, but that process relies largely on medical history and a relatively limited clinical review.He was transported to Brooke Army Medical Center, where he subsequently passed away. The cause of the medical emergency is currently under investigation, and a comprehensive medical review is being conducted to determine the facts, according to the Air Force.The Air Force did not immediately return ABC News' request for comment when asked specifics about the scope of the flu outbreak.In response to the outbreak, some U.S. officials including Rep. Joaquin Castro -- whose district covers about half of San Antonio, including Lackland Air Force Base -- criticized Hegseth's policy ending mandatory vaccination."After Secretary Hegseth scrapped the military's flu vaccine mandate, it was only a matter of time before an outbreak occurred," he wrote in a post on X last week. "It was a reckless decision that put troops in harm's way and undermined our military readiness."In another post on X, Castro confirmed that the Air Force told his office there were 222 cases of flu at the base. "We need answers," he added.
