BATTLING Rhoda star Valerie Harper is facing her final curtain call after the medical treatments for the cancer ravaging her brain have failed — and an expert says she could be dead in six months! In a bombshell admission, her devoted husband, Tony Cacciotti, confesses the drug that’s been a lifesaver for the last four years is losing its effectiveness! Now, she’s desperately trying an experimental drug — and if that doesn’t stop the disease — she’s a goner. Longevity expert Dr. Gabe Mirkin, who has not treated the actress, notes that the “available treatments” for Valerie’s type of cancer only “increase survival for THREE to SIX months.” And radiation oncologist Dr. Jerome Spunberg tells GLOBE “this is a very ominous turn of events.” “The drug that she’s on now…

PRINCE HARRY’S dishy divorcée Meghan Markle has quit her gig on her TV legal drama so she can wed the royal carrottop — and he made her do it! The 36-year-old Suits sexpot told show bigwigs she was through with character Rachel Zane and wouldn’t be filming the show’s eighth and final season, sources say. Instead, she’s expected to announce her engagement to her prince charming before Christmas. As GLOBE reported, Harry’s snooty kin don’t think the curvy brunette, who had a two-year marriage to film producer Trevor Engelson, is cut from the right cloth.

Prince William “and palace minions were terrified she might vomit in public,” notes a royal insider. “But she has an enormous devotion to mental health issues and nothing was going to stop her from joining this…

ONLY IN GLOBE FORMER President Barack Obama, crooked Hillary Clinton and her bimbo-chasing hubby, Bill Clinton, turned blind eyes to sex fiend movie producer Harvey Weinstein’s twisted perversions — while collecting favors and money from the horrid Hollywood horndog! Now the political fat cats are being accused of covering up Weinstein’s wicked ways — and, in essence, acting as the creep’s accomplices by refusing to go public with what they knew! And the three stooges had a million reasons to keep their lips zipped! Weinstein contributed a staggering $1 million of his own dough — and raised another $1.5 million — to the Democrats at the same time he was bullying starlets and employees into fulfilling his sexual fantasies. The Pulp Fiction powerhouse gave $45,000 to Obama’s presidential campaigns and…

THE LEGENDS YOU LOVE EVERY WEEK! DEPRAVED Henry “Fonzie” Winkler tried to get into the pants of 14-year-old actress Erin Moran when they starred on the squeaky-clean family sitcom Happy Days! That’s the horrific charge Erin leveled in an interview before she met her tragic end on April 22 following a battle with throat cancer. “My experiences with Winkler were a nightmare and left me scarred for life,” shuddered Erin, who played the Cunningham’s young daughter Joanie on the hit series. “I never want to see him again!” While Happy Days, which ran from 1974 to 1984, was the ultimate in family viewing — Erin, who died at age 56, says Winkler, then a 29-yearold star, began preying on her when she was barely old enough to be in high…
