It's March 23rd, I'm Corey with the story, and this is Entertainment and celebrity news today, your AI-powered entertainment report. Brenda Song and McColley Cokin turned a family vacation into a headache when Alaska Airlines split them from their two young sons on a flight. The couple had booked first-class seats six months ahead for a trip marking their older son's birthday, but the airline reassigned everything the... morning of departure on March 21st. The separation left the parents upfront, while four-year-old Dakota and one-year-old Carson sat elsewhere, turning what should have been a celebration, into frustration for the family of four. Song vented online about the poor service, and Cokin chimed in with support, sparking widespread backlash from fans who argued no kid should fly. Apart from parents, no matter the ticket price. Alaska Airlines quickly apologized, calling the mix-up unacceptable, and not up to their family-friendly standards, then reached out directly to fix. Things for the couple. Beyond the fly drama, Song and Cokin are settling into a new $10.3 million home in Sherman Oaks after selling their previous.

Place, keeping family life front and center as they move forward.
