Ratna mentioned how Satish’s friends and family gathered at his funeral, remarking that his ‘mobile face was completely still’ and she’s not sure if he looked peaceful. When everyone turned to Madhu, his wife of 45 years, she expressed disbelief to Ratna. The actor wrote in the obituary, “Is this really happening? she asked me, her eyes stunned, her hands stiff. As he was led away, we gathered around her and tried to make sense of the events.”

Ratna wrote about how Satish ‘wanted to live for her to see her through her troubled times’ and how he sang for her beautifully. She wondered who would ‘sing to her and with her’ now.

The actor stated that Madhu joined them in celebrating Satish, writing, “Madhu was able to join in — she sang softly and tentatively at first, as if surprised that the man associated with these songs wasn’t present. But then she just gave in to the warmth of the loved ones who came together to celebrate his life, while marking his passage to another stage. Her voice rose and she seemed to be singing to her Satish.”

Satish Shah died on October 25 in Mumbai at age 74. While earlier reports cited kidney failure as the cause of death, his co-star Rajesh Kumar clarified that it was cardiac arrest. Satish reportedly collapsed at home during lunch before being rushed to the hospital, where efforts to revive him were unsuccessful.

Diane Keaton blessed the film industry with countless performances, such as in The Godfather, Annie Hall, Reds and The First Wives Club. As such, her death broke hearts across Hollywood as fans, former co-stars and friends try to grapple with it. While the late 79-year-old’s cause of death has not been revealed yet, many are wondering if a funeral will be held for the public to say “goodbye.”

Below, get updates on how Keaton will be honored posthumously.

Will Diane Keaton Have a Funeral?

At the time of publication, it is unclear whether Keaton’s family plans to hold a public funeral or a private memorial. No one from her inner circle has commented on possible arrangements.

How Did Diane Keaton Die? What We Know About Her Death

Keaton’s cause of death has yet to be disclosed at the time of publication. However, sources close to the late actress said her health had “declined” during her final months.

“She declined very suddenly, which was heartbreaking for everyone who loved her,” a friend of Keaton’s told People. “It was so unexpected, especially for someone with such strength and spirit. … In her final months, she was surrounded only by her closest family, who chose to keep things very private.”

The source added, “Even longtime friends weren’t fully aware of what was happening.”

Another friend of Keaton’s Carole Bayer Sager told People in a separate interview that she saw the Oscar winner “two or three weeks” before her death, “and she was very thin.”

“She had lost so much weight,” Sager said. “She had to go to Palm Springs because her house had been damaged inside, and they had to clean everything. She was down there for a while, and when she came back, I was kind of stunned by how much weight she’d lost.”

On the day of Keaton’s death, October 11, 2025, the Los Angeles Fire Department was called to her home in California, and they transported an unidentified person to the hospital.

Years before her death, Keaton battled skin cancer.

Was Diane Keaton Married?

No, Keaton never married. She was in a few public relationships, including with longtime collaborator and friend Woody Allen and her Godfather co-star Al Pacino.

In 2019, Keaton told People, she was “really glad [she] didn’t [get married],” adding, “I’m 73 and … I think I’m the only one in my generation … who has been a single woman all her life.”

Who Are Diane Keaton’s Children? About Her Kids

Keaton is survived by her two adopted children, daughter Dexter and son Duke.

bitchy | The Duchess of Kent’s royal Catholic funeral is scheduled for September 16

Katherine, the Duchess of Kent, passed away at the age of 92. She passed away at home in Kensington Palace Thursday night (9/4), and Buckingham Palace announced her death on Friday. I wondered aloud if the Windsors were going to use some obscure rule to avoid giving the Duchess a formal royal funeral, but it looks like they’re really pulling out all the stops. It will be the first Catholic funeral mass of a member of the British royal family in modern history, apparently. The funeral is scheduled for September 16th.

The funeral of the Duchess of Kent will be held at Westminster Cathedral on 16 September, with the King and Queen among the senior royals who will be in attendance, Buckingham Palace has announced. The duchess, Katharine, died on Thursday aged 92, prompting tributes for her kindness and support for tennis and music – including working as a primary school music teacher.

The duchess was a Catholic and there will be a Requiem Mass for her funeral, which will be the first royal Catholic funeral in the UK in modern history. It will be a private family service, after which the coffin will be taken to the royal burial ground in Frogmore in Windsor.

The duchess, who had been the oldest member of the Royal Family, died in Kensington Palace and her coffin will remain in the chapel there until the evening before the funeral, when she will be brought to Westminster Cathedral. In the Catholic tradition, there will be a service to mark the reception of the coffin into the cathedral, attended by her close family, with the duchess being survived by her husband, the Duke of Kent, and their two sons and a daughter. The coffin will remain in the Lady Chapel overnight, before the funeral the following day.

This first royal funeral at Westminster Cathedral, at 2pm on Tuesday 16 September, will be presided over by Cardinal Vincent Nichols, with the Anglican Dean of Windsor participating, before accompanying the coffin to Frogmore.

I wonder if the family will also want a wake, another Catholic funeral tradition. As you can imagine, too many people are already making the Duchess of Kent’s death all about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Harry is arriving in London soon, or he’s already in the UK at this moment. Will he “stay” for the funeral? I would say… probably not, but there’s already a lot of speculation that he could. The Mirror said that King Charles and Queen Camilla will definitely attend Katherine’s funeral, as will some of the other members of the royal family.

Harry apparently “privately sent his condolences” to the Duchess’s family, his people confirmed to several outlets. There’s no conversation about postponing the WellChild Awards, like they had to do in 2022 when QEII died. Interestingly enough, one of the Duchess’s rare public outings in recent years was to Harry and Meghan’s 2018 wedding. She wore sneakers and seemed especially happy for them. She was very close to Princess Diana. Speaking of, Prince William and Kate paid tribute to her with a statement published on Twitter.

The streamer in question was 46-year-old Raphaël Graven, was was found dead at a home near Nice, France on August 18. He was best known by the moniker Jean Pormanove, and was said to have been in the middle of a 10-day streaming marathon when he passed.

Authorities in France have confirmed that there will be an investigation into his death due to claims that he had faced “humiliation” and “mistreatment” during the livestream. Various French outlets have also claimed that Graven had been subjected to sleep deprivation, violence and the “ingestion of toxic products” during the 10 day livestream, while people watched live.

News outlet Nexta claims that the livestream saw him “beaten, choked, and sprayed with paint for donations”. It is understood that he died in his sleep while the livestream continued.

News of his passing was shared by Owen Cenazandotti – a fellow streamer who goes by the name Narturo. In a statement with Safine Hamadi, the two shared: “We’ve laughed together for six years, we’ve given each other blow after blow… Six years of memories. I’ll miss you. I love you. Rest in peace, my brother.” They also asked people to not reshare any clips of Graven dead or unconscious.

Following news of his death, tributes have poured in online, and popular streamer Adin Ross has claimed that he had Drake – the rapper who is an ambassador for the Kick streaming platform – have decided to cover the costs for his funeral.

“This is horrible and disgusting. Whoever was a part of this deserves to face severe consequences,” Ross wrote on X, referring to the allegations of violence towards Graven. “I just spoke with Drake. Drake and I will be covering the funeral costs, this won’t bring his life back, it’s the least we can do. Prayers go out to Jean’s family.”

The Canadian rapper has yet to share a public statement about Graven’s death.

Talking to X, French digital technologies minister Clara Chappaz shared her condolences and confirmed that the incident had been referred to Arcom, France’s media regulator. “The death of Jean Pormanove and the violence he endured are an absolute horror. I extend my deepest condolences to his family and loved ones,” the tweet read, adding that the streamer was “humiliated and mistreated for months live on the Kick platform”.

“The responsibility of online platforms regarding the dissemination of illicit content is not optional: It is the law,” she added, sharing that she had contacted Kick for an explanation. “This type of failure can lead to the worst and has no place in France, Europe, or anywhere else.”

In a statement, Kick said (via ITV): “We are deeply saddened by the loss of Jean Pormanove and extend our condolences to his family, friends and community. We are urgently reviewing the circumstances and engaging with relevant stakeholders to investigate the situation.

“Kick’s community guidelines are designed to protect creators, and we remain committed to upholding these standards across our platform.”

This is a developing story.
