I wish I could jump in your arms again like we used to when we were kids and onstage dancing,” Travis shared on social media.

EVANGELINE LILLY SHARES HEARTBREAK: Evangeline Lilly, 40, took to Instagram Friday to say that she feels alone and unseen after a traumatic year. The Lost star said she remained silent in a bid to save those around her from negativity. “I had such a rough year last year,” she confessed, “but I didn’t want to share all of it with you because i didn’t want to be a dark cloud in your world. All I’ve ever wanted to do was put joy in the world. To add sunshine. I didn’t want you to be having a perfectly good day and then have my post make you sad.” She added: “Publicly, I hid and made light of my deepest traumas and laughed in the face of my most profound pain. Until, last year, I broke. Suddenly I was forced to face my weakness and my limitations, my trauma and fears. I was left with no choice but to accept that I am limited or…carry on down a road of perfectionist denial that would inevitably kill me.” It seems Lilly is coming out of it: “I am coming out of that deep place, slowly. As I start to breathe the fresh air, as I start to find my new, limited footing, I feel disconnected from you. I feel it’s pointless to share the light when you don’t know my darkness. I feel lost and apathetic about this space we share.”

JARED LETONot to sound dramatic, but this is the day I nearly died. Took a pretty good fall climbing with @AlexHonnold at Red Rock. Looked up and within seconds the rope was being cut by the rock while I dangled some 600 ft in the air. I remember looking down at the ground below.
