It’s All Falling Apart for Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake’s world seems to be crashing down in 2024. It’s getting way worse for him now than his bad-boy drama with Britney Spears decades ago. If a poorly-selling concert tour and allegations of marriage problems with Jessica Biel aren’t enough of a downfall, The New York Post just dropped a Justin bombshell in a breaking news report on June 18th.

43-year-old Justin was in the Hamptons on June 17th, when the Post reported that he got “pulled over in Sag Harbor.” Justin has allegedly “been arrested for driving while intoxicated,” according to what a “law enforcement source told ABC News.”

TMZ also claimed to have exclusive details on June 18th, and their law enforcement sources provided more inside knowledge. TMZ’s sources revealed that Justin was seen partying on Monday night, June 17th, at the American Hotel, an establishment in Sag Harbor dating back to 1846 and billed as an “East-End fixture” in the Hamptons.

The TMZ report claimed that Justin got behind the wheel when he left the American Hotel and allegedly blew through a stop sign “almost immediately after” he began driving. TMZ wrote, “Cops saw that,” and they started a chase.

Shockingly, TMZ claimed, “We’re told Justin began swerving” behind the wheel, so “cops pulled him over.” Then, their sources told them what law enforcement did and what Justin allegedly refused to do.

TMZ’s sources confirmed that the police officers who pulled Justin over “performed a field sobriety test.” Sources didn’t reveal how Justin did with the test, but the officers allegedly asked Justin “to take a breathalyzer test.” Shockingly, Justin “refused.”

Justin’s Fans Have Retired Him

But Justin wasn’t alone. According to TMZ’s sources, “several of Justin’s friends came on scene.” These friends allegedly “tried to convince cops” to let Justin off easy.

If you figured that Justin got off the hook because he’s a celebrity, you’d be mistaken. TMZ confirmed that the police officers who stopped Justin “refused” to cut him a break. 

Can you picture Justin getting “handcuffed and arrested?” That’s what went down on June 17th.

TMZ shockingly revealed that Justin’s DWI arrest and resulting humiliation were all captured on a police officer’s body cam. TMZ originally wrote that “a rep for the Sag Harbor Police Department” confirmed that Justin was taken into custody at the SHPD headquarters, but local law enforcement refused to “disclose more information.” According to other sources, Justin met his friends at the American Hotel for dinner, left “around 12:30 AM,” and was “pulled over almost immediately.”

The Post reported that Justin’s court date has been set for July 26th. They also confirmed that Justin “has been on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour since April.” He has concert dates scheduled for Madison Square Garden on June 18th and 19th. 

But the Post didn’t mention that Justin’s tour has been described as a “flop.” NewsNation dropped that bombshell in May, claiming in an article by Paula Froelich that his fans had “retired” Justin after his new album and 2024 tour flopped.

Paula wrote that Justin “teased” an *NSYNC reunion at the VMAs because he wanted “to get press for his first album in six years.” Justin debuted that album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” on March 15th, but the results are worse than anyone thought.

Justin Has Been Canceling Shows

While Justin’s new album debuted in the 19th spot on the Billboard Hot 100, Paula reported that it “dropped off the Billboard Hot 200 completely after just four weeks.” She also confirmed that Justin’s tour “is far from selling out,” and Paula did her homework. She included a Ticketmaster link in the article that showed tickets “in all sections” of every venue were still available almost everywhere Justin’s tour is supposedly taking him.

Justin has also canceled tour stops, like the June concert he was supposed to play in Columbia, South Carolina. Paula wrote, “While no reason was given, insiders point to slow ticket sales.”

Paula also asked for a music expert’s opinion and wrote that she’d reached “famed music journalist” Touré of TheGrio. Touré didn’t hold back. According to him, this is the real truth.

He told Paula that Justin had waited too long to release a new album. His advancing age didn’t help the situation. Touré said, “A six-year break from your mid-thirties to your early forties is a really long time” for any artist.

Touré also believes that many of Justin’s fans “have aged out of caring about him.” He referred to an “old saying” that goes, “You don’t retire. The audience retires you.”

Jessica Was Bashed for Marrying a Cheater

Whether Justin is ready for retirement, his wife has proven that she’s ready to spill the tea on their relationship.

US Weekly reported on May 17th that Jessica dropped her own bombshell during an appearance on The View. Shockingly, Jessica confessed that her marriage to Justin is a “work in progress,” and she claimed, “We’re constantly trying.” But is Jessica actually trying to hide the fact that her marriage is failing?

Page Six reported that Jessica had to take the heat for Justin in October 2023 after Britney’s shocking allegations about Justin went public in her memoir, “The Woman in Me.” The Page Six headline claimed that Britney’s fans had flooded Jessica’s Instagram “after Justin Timberlake turns off comments.” Jessica got “bashed” for marrying an “alleged ‘cheater.’”

US Weekly reported that Jessica appeared on The View on May 16th. That’s when Jessica revealed that her and Justin’s “busy work schedules” made it a challenge to try and “find the balance” or “find the time” for their marriage. However, one thing was missing in this US Weekly article. 

The article sounded like Justin is crazy busy and successful with his new album and tour. It said he was “currently globetrotting following the release of his new album,” and his tour was “making stops everywhere from Los Angeles to Amsterdam to London.” Justin’s reality seems to be much different.

Justin and Jessica’s Marriage Has Had Some Ups and Downs

Jessica said on The View that she was “already exhausted” about Justin’s world tour, and he’d only done “four shows.” She also confessed that she didn’t know how Justin was “gonna do it” or how “we’re gonna do it,” but Jessica claimed, “We’re gonna get through it. Somehow, someway.”

US Weekly reported that Justin and Jessica have had “their ups and downs,” but they’ve “continued to take steps forward in recent years.” Allegedly, Jessica and Justin have relied on “couples counseling.” A source told US Weekly that their family had a “great bonding experience” living in Montana during the global pandemic.

Another US Weekly report published on May 1st claimed that Jessica called Justin’s world tour “a family affair.” Jessica posted some “rare family photos” on Instagram at the end of April. One picture shows her sons, 9-year-old Silas and 3-year-old Phineas, wearing “merch” from Justin’s world tour.

She also posted a “backstage” photo with Justin.] US Weekly reported that the photo showed Jessica and Justin gazing at each other as “they embraced backstage.”

Jessica Is Nervous About How the Tour Will Affect Their Relationship

A source with inside knowledge spilled the tea to US Weekly about how Jessica feels about Justin going on tour. Shockingly, the source alleged that Jessica didn’t think it would be “smooth sailing.”

On one hand, this US Weekly source claimed that Jessica and Justin are “thriving as a couple.” However, she was still “nervous” about how his tour might “affect their dynamic.” The source even alleged that it was understandable for Jessica to feel that way.

Then, US Weekly got into Justin’s “problematic past.” Justin’s previous marriage problems include his “2019 incident,” when he was caught snuggling up to a former costar, 34-year-old Alisha Wainwright. The US Weekly source claimed that Jessica remains “a bit worried,” and another source had additional details.

According to US Weekly, their “second insider” believes that it will “be the last straw for Jessica” if Justin has “another incident” during his failing world tour. But what exactly does this source mean by an “incident?”

Perhaps US Weekly’s third alleged source knows the real truth. This third source told the outlet that Justin was planning on limiting “his alcohol intake and removing himself from any inappropriate situations” during his world tour. 

Since Justin allegedly failed to limit his alcohol intake in Sag Harbor, it will be interesting to see if this is the kind of “incident” that will be the “last straw” for Jessica.

Insider Reveals How Kate Middleton Is Really Doing

For Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales, this past year has been rather eventful. And not in a very positive way. Admiration and interest have surrounded Kate Middleton as people have wondered how she keeps her composure and grace throughout it all in the wake of her cancer diagnosis. An insider from In Touch Weekly recently revealed how Kate is truly doing, and the details are both touching and incredibly empathetic.

Kate Middleton has had a number of difficulties within the last 12 months. The source says the Duchess has been negotiating a time of great scrutiny and emotional upheaval. She has suffered much from the demands of royal life as well as from being a mother to three young children and public expectations. Kate has been remarkably strong and resilient in spite of these difficulties in the wake of being diagnosed with an unspecified cancer.

Princess of Wales Puts Family First

According to the source, Kate has been concentrating on her family and personal health for most of the last year, living in relative solitude. She needed this “hiding,” as some have dubbed it, as a time to refuel and regain equilibrium in the middle of mayhem.

Kate‘s world has always revolved around family. Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, the insider said, have been her main sources of happiness and consolation. Kate has given herself entirely to providing kids with a secure and loving home, frequently putting their needs ahead of her own.

Although there have been their share of highs and lows, Kate and her husband William, Prince of Wales, are still steadfast in their love for their family and one another. William has been Kate’s constant supporter, the insider underlined, giving her the love and security she needs. 

Insider Reveals ‘… Kate Is In the Fight of Her Life’

That being said, Kate has no intention of disappearing completely. In the wake of the announcement that she may not be able to resume her royal duties for another year, she is still engaging in some royal duties.

“No one expected her to completely disappear for so long,” the insider said. “Now, with the news that she may not resume her royal duties until 2025, everyone is fearing the worst. The truth is, Kate is in the fight of her life.”

According to the insider, Kate will continue to do her job and care for her children out of the limelight.

 “She’s still recovering, and her doctors haven’t given her the green light to get back to work full time yet,” said the insider. “Going through chemotherapy has been particularly rough on her. Kate was already skinny to begin with, so she’s very frail and afraid she won’t be able to give her all to an official engagement right now.”

Kate Middleton’s Future 

Given the insider’s disclosures, Kate Middleton has obviously overcome major obstacles with elegance and tenacity over the year. It is quite inspirational how Kate can find comfort in her loved ones and herself.

With more purpose and energy, we imagine that Kate will recover and resume her spot in the limelight in the UK. She is prepared, the insider assures us, to assume her royal responsibilities with the same commitment and grace that have always characterized her.

Audrey Roloff’s Parenting Exposed

Audrey Roloff is facing heat again for her parenting decisions. The latest comes just after the birth of her daughter Mirabella.

The Little People, Big World star is no stranger to heat when it comes to online fans. Audrey Roloff has shared photos of her children over the years, especially when it comes to sharing photos on her social media channels.

Fans Criticize Audrey Roloff for Her Dangerous Parenting

According to TV Shows Ace, Little People, Big World fans have shared their anger at Audrey’s lack of privacy for her children. Mirabella, aka Mira May, is not the first of the children she has shared online. Over the years, she has publicly posted photos and Instagram stories of Ember, 6, Bode, 4, and Radley, 2.

Each time, fans have shared how dangerous her decision to post her children on social media is. There are predators everywhere online, and posting photos of children without their implicit consent is unfair and puts them at risk, especially as a celebrity mother.

However, TV Shows Ace also suggests that some people view her as feeling superior in her parenting skills, and many are just waiting for her to make a mistake. This has happened in the past when fans spotted two-year-old Radley holding a sparkler at a Fourth of July event, and the time Radley wore a teething necklace that looked too tight for his neck. It looks like they got that chance with the latest photo of Mirabella too.

The latest post was on Roloff’s Instagram stories. She shared a photo of newborn Mirabella in a pink body carrier. Mirabella was fast asleep, unaware of the photo being taken. Fans quickly took to online platforms to share their disappointment in the decision, although not just due to a lack of privacy. Some fans looked at the positioning of Mirabella in the carrier and believed it to be dangerous with the way Mirabella’s head sat.

Fans Speak Out About Audrey Roloff’s Dangerous Baby’s Position

One fan took to Reddit to share the elements that are so dangerous for carrying Mirabella. It’s important for the head and neck to be upright at all times at that age. This commenter also noted that the legs and bottom should be in the “M” position, as wrapping the legs around the mother’s waist opens up the chances of hip dysplasia and other health risks.

Other critics of the Little People, Big World star also noted the problems with the position. They used their personal experiences to discuss the topic.

One Reddit user talked about her friend’s baby slept like this and then needed CPR due to being accidentally smothered by his mom. Fortunately, the baby was okay, but it was traumatizing for the mom.

Others pointed out that when snuggle wraps are improperly worn, there is a high risk of suffocation and SIDS. One user pointed out that the camera angle may make the positioning look worse than it likely is in real life, but it is important to ensure that babies are placed in carriers safely and properly. This is a good teaching moment for many who may not understand the risks, even if Roloff is doing nothing wrong.

There were some comments in the star’s corner. One made it known that as a postpartum doula, they were happy with the positioning of the baby in the carrier.

Carrie Underwood House Catches On Fire

Last Sunday, Carrie Underwood’s Tennessee house caught fire while the whole family was inside. Reports first emerged about the serious incident a matter of hours later. 

The New York Post reported that the Williamson County Fire Rescue team took to social media to confirm that they had arrived at the scene at 9:40 pm on Sunday night. They described what they saw as a “fully involved fire” that was soon updated to a “structure fire.” It was then put out using a 10,000-gallon water tank that was already on the premises.

Heavy reported that crews from all eight of Williamson County’s fire stations responded to the call. Because of where Carrie and her family stay, the fire trucks faced a long journey to arrive at the American Idol winner’s home.

The property is located in the remote Pinewood community of Leiper’s Fork, about 45 miles south of Nashville. While having lately become a hotspot for celebrities, the secluded nature of the area presented a challenge for the firefighters. 

Trucks had to travel up a long road before reaching the long driveway that led to the burning house. A spokesperson for the fire department said, “Crews worked for several hours to extinguish the fire extension into the roofline.”

The spokesperson, Dinah Wade, added, “Crews from Franklin Fire provided a ladder truck and engine crew to assist with the operation. Fairview Fire also provided a tanker and crew for support.”

The Cause of the Fire Is Under Investigation

The firefighters stayed around Carrie’s home for a long time after putting out the flames. This was because the fire had entered the walls of the house and continued to flare up in hot spots.

The cause of the blaze is still being investigated. Although nothing has been confirmed, the fire department’s spokesperson suggested it started when an off-road UTV parked near the garage caught fire.

The flames then spread from the vehicle to the garage, and then to the house, where it was reported that Carrie’s whole family was at the time. Along with the singer herself, her husband Mike Fisher, and their two sons were inside, along with their three pets.

A rep talked to the Post and confirmed that, thankfully, no one was injured in the mysterious incident. The rep said, “There was a fire on the property on Sunday night, which was quickly contained.” They continued, “There was no fire damage to the primary residence, and the family and their pets were unharmed.”

Last Sunday was Father’s Day, but the Post reported that it was unclear if the fire had interrupted Carrie’s family’s celebrations. The Blown Away singer has been married to Mike, a former NHL player, since 2010. 

Carrie has not yet said anything in person or online about the shocking events at her house last weekend. Although we know through her rep that no one was hurt, the family was obviously pretty shaken up. Dinah Wade shared that “one of the pets would not leave the homeowner’s side.”

The Fire Came Out of Nowhere

It was no wonder Carrie’s family were in shock about what they had experienced, with the blaze seeming to come out of nowhere. 

Just hours before, everything at their house had appeared so peaceful. Earlier the same day, Carrie had posted a photo to her Instagram Story of her smiling beside her two sheep, Gray and Gary. In the caption of the sweet image, she wrote, “Sheep selfie with Gary and Gray.”

Just days previously, the singer was seen looking sensational for the 2024 Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Gala in New York City. The 41-year-old stunned onlookers at the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel as she bounced back from a recent embarrassing experience. 

Earlier this month, Carrie fell on stage following a performance in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. TMZ obtained footage of the moment when Carrie, walking off stage after her headline set, fell as she made her way down the steps at the back of the stage. Several fans were heard in the footage voicing their concern as they watched Carrie tumble. 

She later took to Instagram to talk about her performance and even make a joke about her trip. She wrote, “Well, last night sure was fun! And though the ending was quite unexpected, it made for a night we’ll never forget! Thanks for being awesome, #MyrtleBeach!”

The caption was posted alongside a series of pictures of the concert. 

Carrie Suffered From Serious Injuries in 2017

Carrie suffered similar accidents in 2017 and 2018. One of these trips was actually pretty serious. 

After falling down some stairs in her house, Carrie revealed in January 2018 that she had broken her wrist and even suffered facial lacerations requiring nearly 50 stitches. Following this accident, the singer didn’t appear in public for several months. 

It wasn’t until her performance at the 2018 Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas that Carrie showed her full face again. She had previously warned fans that she might look different after her accident. But in truth, there was only minimal scarring visible as she took to the stage. 

Despite this, Carrie opened up about the self-doubt she experienced and her worry that she would never look the same again. She said, “In the beginning, I feel like, you know, I didn’t know how things were going to end up. It just wasn’t pretty.”

When the fall happened, Carrie was by herself, with one of her young sons asleep upstairs. Luckily, her more recent fall at Myrtle Beach was nothing like as serious. 

Carrie had no idea of the crazy incident that would follow less than a month later. After the fire in her house was put out, the family was allowed to re-enter the property. However, reports stated that there was still a smell of smoke within the building. 

It’s unclear if Carrie and her family will be able to stay at the house at this moment.

The Construction of the Home Took 7 Years

Carrie and her husband bought the 400-acre property in 2011 for a whopping $3 million. However, a long construction job meant that their dream home wasn’t finished until 2018. 

Before they began building, the couple shared a sneak peek of their property by taking Oprah Winfrey on a tour of their land in 2012. They also gave fans a rare glimpse into their home life during lockdown in 2020. 

The celebrity couple opened up in their candid four-part docuseries called “Mike and Carrie: God and Country,” in which they shared the inner workings and secrets of their married life. They also talked on the show about how they went about resolving conflicts within their marriage. 

In a recent interview with Life & Style, Carrie talked about how her stable family life kept her grounded away from the stage. She said, “Kids can definitely keep you humble because they don’t care what you do.”

After something so dramatic, it seems like Carrie’s domestic life is not always as ordinary as she thinks it is. Hopefully, Carrie’s shock at the incident in Leiper’s Fork will fizzle out just as quickly as the flames themselves.

Meghan Markle Tried to Upstage Kate Middleton

Kate Middleton has been through hell in 2024. Now, there are insane allegations that Meghan Markle is a diva who wanted to upstage Kate.

Kate made a brief but triumphant return in public on June 15th. A royal expert alleges that Meghan tried to steal the spotlight away from her estranged sister-in-law.

TMZ got the exclusive with the royal expert, Jonathan Sacerdoti. His online bio states that he’s a “British broadcaster and writer” who covers a “wide range of topics,” including “Israeli politics, cultural and religious subjects, and the British Royal Family.” 

Meghan’s alleged Royal Family diss is serious news for Jonathan. He told TMZ that Meghan “tried to upstage” Princess Kate at this year’s Trooping of the Colours celebration.

Jonathan appeared on the June 17th edition of “TMZ Live.” He went off on “Meg” and what he called Meghan and Prince Harry’s “royally pathetic” moves.

TMZ reported that Jonathan “slammed” Meghan on TMZ Live and accused her of “trotting out new jams right around the same time” as the annual event in London honoring the King’s “official birthday.” They wrote that Meghan, the “Duchess of Sussex,” has been “called out for launching new products over the weekend as part of her new lifestyle brand.” If that doesn’t sound like proof that Meghan was dissing Kate, TMZ provided a further explanation. 

Prince Harry plays polo with an Argentinian male model named Nacho Figueras, nicknamed the “David Beckham of polo.” He’s also buddies with Harry and Meghan. TMZ explained that Nacho did a “soft launch” of Meghan’s new products when he “shared a sneak peek of American Riviera Orchard’s new jam and dog biscuits” on his Instagram on Friday, June 14th. 

Jonathan Is Fed Up with Meghan and Harry’s Antics

While Jonathan admitted it “might just be a coincidence,” TMZ wrote that he got “fired up” during their June 17th broadcast. Jonathan even accused Meghan of pulling “a deliberate move” to steal something away from the “Princess of Wales.” In their exclusive report, TMZ didn’t sound convinced that Meghan did anything wrong. 

But when Harvey Levin and Charles Latibeaudiere of TMZ interviewed Jonathan on June 17th, Harvey admitted that the Royal Family has “definitely taken their lumps” over shocking accusations that Meghan and Harry have made over the past few years, especially during their infamous Oprah interview. After that lead-in, Jonathan got testy about the Sussexes.

He claimed that “everybody has got fed up with Meghan and Harry and their antics.” Shockingly, Jonathan even alleged that Meghan and Harry “might try and do something to steal the thunder from the Royal Family” around the time of the “King’s official birthday.” However, he didn’t provide any proof that anyone made this prediction.

Still, Jonathan is confident that Meghan tried to upstage Kate. He told Harvey and Charles, “Sure enough, there was a revelation” that Meghan announced new products from her “business.” It was suspicious that this release of “jam and dog biscuits” coincided with Kate’s return during her harrowing cancer battle.

Jonathan threw major shade at Meghan on TMZ Live. However, he didn’t sound too credible when he stumbled through the brand name of Meghan’s lifestyle business.

He incorrectly said the name “American Orchard Riviera” shows the “difference” between Meghan and the Royals. Jonathan referred to Meghan as “pathetic” and lacking “classiness.”

TMZ Questioned Jonathan’s Theory

Charles tried to poke some holes into Jonathan’s super-dramatic conspiracy theory. He told Jonathan, “If Meghan Markle actually thought that her releasing a jam would steal the spotlight away from Kate Middleton returning from a cancer battle… there’s no way she could possibly think that.” 

For Charles, there’s only one possible explanation for this new Meghan scandal. He told Jonathan that it was all just a “stupid coincidence.”

While Jonathan agreed that it “could be” just a stupid coincidence, he refused to back down on his insane theory. Then Jonathan added that it “wasn’t just jam” that Meghan was hawking. 

Jonathan seriously believes that Meghan was trying to steal Kate’s thunder because she promoted her new “dog biscuits.” Jonathan added, “Who cares about the jam?” Then he really lit into Meghan.

He said, “Do you really think I want the jam from this B-List actress who was once in Suits.” She “married someone,” and that’s the only reason “we know who she is.”

But Jonathan wasn’t quite finished. He ripped into Meghan’s brand, saying, “Who buys jam and dog biscuits from the same company?”

He just wanted to put the “focus” back on the “real Royals,” particularly on Kate and King Charles. As a British journalist and so-called “royal expert,” Jonathan’s opinion is pretty biased. He told Harvey and Charles that “Britain was really pleased” to see Kate at the Trooping of the Colours. “That’s the princess that everybody was looking at this weekend.”

Jonathan sounded like he was “Team Kate” and devoted to the Royal Family on TMZ Live. If you take his one-sided Meghan-bashing out of the equation, he made much more sense when defending Kate in March.

Kate Has Been Surrounded by Conspiracy Theories

The UK’s Express ran a story about the “crazy conspiracy theories” running wild about Kate. Just a few months ago, Kate suffered from negative press worldwide because of that shocking Photoshop scandal and her lack of transparency about why she’d disappeared from public life.

After Kate released a brief video confession about her absence from royal duties due to her shocking cancer battle, Jonathan spoke with Express. He criticized the “nation,” the “press and commentators online,” and also “individuals” who should have given Kate “the space not to have to worry about her reputation, or her appearance, her hair or her clothes, all of the things that people then poured over when the video was released.”

Another shocking article published by Express on March 28th claimed that Kate “trusts royal reporters more than Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.” Express alleged that “Princess Kate did not inform” Harry and Meghan about her cancer “before going public with her video message.” Shockingly, they claimed that “royal reporters were informed an hour and a half beforehand in order to prepare their coverage.”

According to Express, “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex found out at the same time as everybody else.” That’s when Harry and Meghan posted a statement online wishing Kate “health and healing” and also privacy and peace. The Sussexes talked about “peace,” but royal reporters attacked them anyway.

A guy named Richard Eden writes for The Daily Mail. He claimed “it would have been unthinkable” for Kate not to tell her brother-in-law about her health scare “a few years ago.” Richard alleges that “the Sussexes were simply not trusted enough” when they “discovered that their sister-in-law Kate had cancer at the same time as the rest of the world.”

Meghan’s Business Might Have Competition

Meghan might also have a problem with Kate’s own flesh and blood, as reported in another Express article published on March 28th, claiming “Meghan Markle set to clash with Princess Kate’s brother James Middleton over new brand.” 

Express confirmed that Meghan had submitted trademark paperwork “at the US Patent and Trademark Office.” Her company logo was “written in flowery gold script above the word Montecito,” the coastal town where they live in California.

Express also reported that Meghan “is also looking to expand into skincare, stationary, and pet products… including pet food, edible pet treats, and bird seed.” Then Express mentioned James’ new business venture.

They claimed that James and Meghan would be “rivals in the pet food industry” because James had “set up his own high-end dog food business called James & Ella.” The name of James’ pet food company is a tribute to his late “therapy spaniel,” a dog named Ella who passed away in 2023. He will sell “raw and cold-pressed dog food, as well as air-dried treats.”

While they’ll both be selling things you can feed your dog, it’s a bit of a stretch to believe a UK paper that claims that Meghan and James will be fierce competitors in business anytime soon!

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Slammed Over Parenting Decision

Photo credit: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex/Instagram

Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, are back in the public eye. This time for a parenting decision.

Will Prince Harry and Meghan Pay $40,000/Year For Children’s School?

Every parent wants the best for their children. The idea of sending a child to one of the best schools in the state shouldn’t be all that controversial. For this celebrity couple, a decision to consider a $40,000-per-year school is just that.

Harry and Meghan are facing criticism for looking at select schools in the luxurious California area of Montecito for their children Archie and Lilibet. This happens to be the area they live in, with one campus reportedly costing more than $40,000 per year. Each of the elite schools have large price tags, according to Yahoo!

The two are no stranger to the private school system. Prince Harry attended Ludgrove pre school and then Eton College. Markle attended Immaculate Heart High School, a private Catholic school in Los Angeles.

A Royal Commentator Criticizes Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

The initial criticism came from Lee Cohen, a Royal commentator, who focused on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s “commitment to progressive causes.” He claimed that commitment is “nothing but a façade,” in the light of the recent decision.

His focus is on the way so many other parents are unable to afford the basic costs of living. Cohen wants to know how the parents can justify spending so much on their own children’s education with that in mind, especially considering their social causes.

According to the same Yahoo! article, he told GB News that, “It’s utterly infuriating to hear that Harry and Meghan, the self-proclaimed champions of equality and social justice, are even contemplating enrolling their children in an exclusive, outrageously expensive school. Yet they’re willing to pay staggering tens of thousands per year for their children’s education. How can they possibly justify this when so many families struggle to afford even the basic necessities?”

The Public Came to The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Defense Online

Despite the Royal commentator’s criticism, many other people came to the defense of the two online. Education is important, and Harry and Meghan simply want the best for their children. That means the best education their money can buy.

People also noted that safety is an issue. With the Duke and Duchess in the public eye, that means the safety of their children is also at risk. The two will want to send their children to a school where safety is a top priority, and elite schools offer that benefit.

Other people have commented on how it’s the choice of the parents. If they have the money for a private education, why should they be criticized for that? It is setting up children in the best way possible for the future. Sadly, private school isn’t accessible for everyone.

Royals author Tom Quinn also came to the defense of the couple. He made it clear that safety would likely be a priority when choosing a school for their children. Quinn has always had the opinion that the two would put safety first, especially considering Markle’s life in Hollywood. This is not just something Prince Harry and Meghan will consider, but anyone in the Hollywood circle would consider. Children of Hollywood stars tend to end up at the same schools for similar reasons.

Why Taylor Swift is Worried About Travis

They’re the duo that everyone is talking about, but the couple may be in a bit of hot water. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have more going on behind their glitzy exterior. According to insiders, Taylor Swift is rather concerned about her connection with the NFL player, and the reasons are more interesting than you would imagine.

Is There Trouble In Paradise For Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce? 

As per a recent Yahoo story, Taylor Swift is under more heat from the limelight than ever. She’s used to being scrutinized by the public, but Taylor feels the media’s spotlight on her relationship with Travis has been too much. She is beginning to wonder if the burden of this high-profile romance is worth the ongoing attention. 

“Taylor’s dated plenty of famous guys, but the level of frenzy around Travis is insane,” said the insider. “He’s in talks for mega-deals, and all the attention and offers he’s getting are starting to take over his life.”

One other potential problem in Swift and Kelce’s relationship could be trust. A recent writeup from SheKnows says Taylor has been burnt in the past and finds it difficult to completely trust people again. Taylor feels a bit nervous about the relationship getting more serious even though Travis has only shown her love and respect. She’s been let down in the past, and those experiences still trouble her… and we don’t need an insider to know that. Just listen to her music.

When you’re as busy as these two, you’re bound to hit some scheduling roadblocks. It’s probably quite difficult to find time to spend together with Travis’s football season and Taylor’s tour schedule. The practicalities of their hectic jobs are difficult to overlook, but Travis is attempting to remain grounded in the middle of the whirlwind romance. The pair has little time for one another because they are often juggling their obligations. Taylor fears that this time spent apart could cause a rift.

Fans, Friends, and Family Weigh In On Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Relationship

Taylor likely worries a lot about friends and family as well. Some of her closest friends back the relationship, but others are dubious. A few of Taylor’s acquaintances are worried about Travis’s intentions, according to the insider who spoke to Yahoo. They worry he may be boosting his own reputation by exploiting her notoriety. This uncertainty adds still another level of stress.

One more cause of worry is the pressure from fans. Swifties have great hopes for their idol’s love life, thus each setback in her connection with Travis is heightened tenfold. Taylor, according to the insider who spoke to SheKnows, is even more circumspect about every move she makes in this romance because she feels obligated to her fans.

Travis is Fully Dedicated to Taylor Swift 

Conversely, Travis Kelce is doing all he can to reassure Taylor that their relationship is perfect. Billboard says his priorities are remaining grounded and demonstrating his dedication to Taylor. Travis supports Taylor in all the ways he can because he is aware of the particular demands that come with dating someone as well-known as her. 

Even though love might overcome all, Taylor and Travis obviously have a lot on their plate to maintain their relationship. Whether this power couple can get over the obstacles will ultimately be seen in due course. Swifties and NFL fans alike are waiting impatiently for a happily ever after with these two!

Billy Ray Cyrus Is Getting a Divorce

Billy Ray Cyrus is calling his seven-month marriage to Firerose a sham.

According to TMZ, who got a look at the court documents, Billy separated from Firerose on May 22, 2024.

The reason he’s divorcing his bride of seven months?

Why Billy Ray Cyrus Filed For Divorce

He gives two: irreconcilable differences and inappropriate marital conduct.

According to the Law Offices of Francis King, inappropriate marital conduct can mean several things.

Sometimes, it might mean there was physical or emotional abuse in the relationship.

That also includes verbal abuse.

It also includes deviant or excessive sexual demands and behavior.

Even abstaining from sex altogether can be grounds for inappropriate marital conduct.

Saying or doing things that are publicly humiliating or embarrassing to the other spouse also qualifies.

Finally, it includes dating that falls short of adultery.

The behavior must also be persistent rather than just one or two isolated events.

So, it’s possible that Billy caught Firerose doing something she wasn’t supposed to do.

Why Billy Ray Cyrus Filed For Annulment

There’s some evidence behind this speculation, too, because Billy doesn’t just want a divorce–he wants an annulment.

He claimed in his paperwork that the marriage was obtained by fraud.

One reason why Billy might want an annulment over a divorce is that it keeps him from having to pay alimony.

An annulment basically means that the wedding wasn’t legal.

Thus, since it legally didn’t happen, the couple doesn’t owe anything to each other in terms of financial support.

So, Billy wouldn’t need to pay a certain amount to Firerose every month.

That said, he did agree to pay a certain amount of money to Firerose to help her move out of the house.

After filing the paperwork for divorce and annulment, Billy gave Firerose legally two days to move out of the house.

Initially, he paid her $500/night for 10 days to temporarily house her elsewhere.

He then agreed to pay $5,000/month to help her find housing in Tennessee.

He won’t pay her $5,000 forever, though.

The documents state that he’ll pay her that amount for 90 days or until the divorce is finalized, whichever comes first.

Luckily for Billy, the divorce proceedings should be relatively quick.

The couple doesn’t share any children together, which isn’t too surprising since they were only married for seven months.

How Billy Ray Cyrus and Firerose Met

Now, fans of Billy may be wondering why he’s called the marriage a sham or fraudulent since he’s known Firerose for a long time.

Although they had a whirlwind romance, he’s technically known Firerose since the Hannah Montana days.

They met on the set of the show and even released music together in 2021.

By 2023, the couple were married.

Firerose Painted Picture-Perfect Marriage on Instagram

Now, whatever happened that made Billy unhappy with Firerose seems to be recent.

Last April, Firerose wrote a touching tribute to Billy on Instagram.

The picture showed them cuddled up together on the grass on their wedding day.

Firerose captioned the photo, saying that it had been six months since she had married Billy, and although life wasn’t easy, it helped that her husband was also her best friend.

In fact, Firerose posted several loving photos of herself and Billy all throughout April.

April 28 was the last photo she posted that had her and Billy in it.

They’re seen smiling and laughing together while Billy drives a boat.

Her latest post is about celebrating eight years sober.

Why Billy Ray Cyrus Hasn’t Posted Photos of Firerose Recently

Billy, on the other hand, hasn’t posted many photos of Firerose recently.

Most of his photos are about his new music that’s coming out, a few about the old days, and even one about his daughter, Miley.

Before April, however, Billy had been posting tons of photos of Firerose and himself.

So, whatever made them go their separate ways likely happened in May.

Billy and Firerose no longer follow each other on Instagram.

Billy Ray Cyrus’ First Marriage 

This isn’t Billy’s first divorce.

He was married to Cindy Smith from 1986 until 1991.

His marriage to Tish Cyrus, however, is the most well-known.

Billy and Tish first met in 1993 at a club.

He was homeless at the time and living out of his car.

They met just before Billy got his huge break with the song, Achy Breaky Heart.

They moved fast together, however, and ended up having their first child together in 1992.

They had a daughter named Miley, who would go on to be as big as, if not bigger, than her father in the music industry.

Billy wasn’t faithful to Tish, however, and ended up getting another woman pregnant around the same time.

He had a son with this other woman named Christopher Cody.

Tish stuck with Billy, though, and they got married in 1993 while Tish was pregnant with their second child, Braison.

The couple had a third child together in 2000, another daughter, named Noah.

Why Billy Ray Cyrus Filed For Divorce From Tish

Now, trouble in paradise began for the couple in 2010 when Billy filed for divorce from Tish.

RELATED: Golden Bachelor – Trouble in Paradise

There was a rumor going around that Tish had cheated on him with Bret Michaels.

Bret denied the allegation, however, saying that he was a family friend who had been helping Miley record one of his songs.

If Tish did cheat on Billy, then maybe it created a sense of insecurity in him.

If Firerose had also had a similar relationship with another man, Billy may have wanted out of the marriage immediately since he had already experienced that heartbreak with Tish.

A year later, in 2011, Billy said he was working on his marriage with Tish. 

Billy Blamed ‘Hannah Montana’ Show For Family Falling Apart

In an interview with GQ, Billy said that the show, Hannah Montana, was to blame for his family falling apart.

Since the show required him to be away from Tish for long periods of time, it further gives evidence that she may have cheated on him–or that he may have cheated on her.

Being away from one’s spouse for a long time can create distance, after all.

Later in 2011, Billy dropped his divorce, saying that he got his family back together.

Now, just because Billy didn’t want to divorce Tish anymore didn’t mean that everything was perfect.

Why Tish Filed For Divorce From Billy Ray Cyrus 

Two years later, in 2013, Tish filed for divorce.

RELATED: Ray J’s Wife Files For Divorce

The couple didn’t reveal why they were choosing to separate.

But, just like the divorce in 2011, this one didn’t go through, either.

Tish said that they both woke up one day and realized that they still loved each other and wanted to be together.

She also added that they had been going to couples’ therapy, which had helped them improve their communication.

In 2022, however, the couple finally called it quits.

Tish filed for divorce again, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their divorce.

Apparently, the couple hadn’t even been living in the same house for the past two years.

They split, and that’s when Billy started dating Firerose.

He moved fast, too.

The divorce from Tish happened in April 2022, and four months later, he was engaged to Firerose.

Cyrus Family Drama

Now, being engaged to Firerose caused some drama in the Cyrus family.

Miley, in particular, didn’t seem happy that her dad was dating someone close in age to her.

Considering that Billy met Firerose on the set of Hannah Montana, there’s certainly a reason to feel unhappy about the relationship.

Firerose is 34 years old now, which means she would have been between the ages of 16 and 21, depending on when they met while the show aired.

She’s also four years older than Miley.

According to The Sun, Miley and the rest of the Cyrus kids have been having problems with their parents since their divorce.

Some have sided with their mother while others have sided with their father.

Miley seemed to choose her mom since she attended her wedding to actor Dominic Purcell.

The other kids didn’t.

When Miley won a Grammy in 2024, she thanked all her family members except Billy.

She even made it a point to ask if she had forgotten anyone and still didn’t mention Billy.

Now that Firerose is out of the picture, fans will have to wait and see whether the two make up.

Did Miley Cyrus’ Mom, Tish, Steal Her Daughter’s, Noah, Boyfriend?

Miley isn’t the only Cyrus daughter having drama with their parent, either.

Noah Cyrus is also mad at Tish because she allegedly stole her boyfriend from her.

According to US Weekly, Noah was the one dating Dominic before Tish.

However, Tish, who claimed she had a long-time crush on the actor, went on a date with him, and they ended up making out three hours into it.

The two fell in love, and Noah was left behind.

Regardless of the drama, Tish has managed to stay married longer than Billy.

Fans will have to wait and see if Billy or Firerose gives more details about their fast divorce.

Amber Portwood’s Boyfriend Gary Reported Missing

Amber Portwood recently got engaged to a man named Gary Wayt, but there’s one, small, problem.

He’s gone missing.

According to ABC 13 News, a local news station out of Bryson City, North Carolina, Gary was last seen on Sunday in Bryson City.

He was there with Amber to attend a family member’s wedding.

They also enjoyed the trip and spent time in the Smokey Mountains.

The hours before he went missing are still being questioned.

Amber Portwood and Gary Wayt’s Alleged Fight

According to one report, Gary and Amber had an emotional argument.

Amber ended up telling Gary to leave and never come back.

Gary then took the car and drove off from the hotel where they were staying.

When Amber returned home to Indiana, he wasn’t there.

The couple hasn’t spoken to each other in 60 hours.

Gary also left his phone behind, so Amber hasn’t been able to contact him using it.

Now, according to The Ashley, the fight that allegedly took place between Amber and Gary didn’t happen.

Amber Portwood’s Brother, Shawn, Speaks Out 

Shawn Portwood, Amber’s brother, commented on The Ashley’s post on Twitter about Gary’s disappearance, saying that his sister and Gary did not fight before he disappeared.

He said that any report about an argument between them is false.

He claimed that it’s just people trying to make the story spicier.

Instead, Shawn said that these people should be focusing their attention on finding Gary.

Shawn isn’t the only one urging people to help find him, either.

Amber’s Ex, Gary Shirley, Offers Support and Prayers

Even Amber’s ex, Gary Shirley, is lending his support.

He commented on a missing alert placed on social media, saying that they needed to find Gary.

He also offered his prayers for a safe return.

So, while there has been plenty of support for Amber during this strange and scary event, there’s also a lot of confusion over what happened before Gary left Amber behind.

Did Amber Portwood Have Anything to Do With Gary’s Disappearance?

If the fight had happened, then Shawn could have been trying to help his sister look innocent in the eyes of the police.

If a crime occurred, it’s only natural that they’d look at Amber first since she was the last one with Gary.

Knowing that a fight happened before Gary left could make them question if Amber had anything to do with his disappearance.

Or, it simply could be that the two didn’t fight.

At this point, it’s all speculation.

Missing Report About Gary Wayt

The missing report also gave additional details about Gary.

Fans initially only knew Gary by his first name since Amber never said his last name on the show or social media.

Viewers now know that Gary’s last name is Wayt.

They also now know his age, which is 39.

Previously, fans only knew that Amber was dating a man in his 30s.

The police also know the exact place where Gary was last seen–Arlington Avenue in Bryson City, North Carolina.

The missing report described Gary as being 6’1, 205 pounds, bald, and having brown eyes.

They also have a description of his car, which is a gray 2009 Nissan Rogue.

The car also has Indiana plates.

According to US Weekly, Amber has been distraught over the whole thing.

One insider alleged that she is beside herself and worried about him.

The source said that Amber was worried because Gary should have been home by now if he was driving back to Indiana from Bryson City.

She’s also been relying on her friends to help her find him.

Amber put in an official missing persons report on Monday when Gary failed to show up at home.

Amber Portwood and Gary Wayt’s Relationship and Engagement

Gary hasn’t spoken to her or his family since he went missing.

To make this story even worse, Amber and Gary had only just gotten engaged.

He had proposed to her two weeks ago and even used an old family stone as the setting for the engagement ring.

Amber was, reportedly, extremely happy.

The couple met through a dating site, and the relationship was different from the start compared to other men that Amber had met.

She said that she had met other men on social media, and they were all aware of who she was because of the show.

Amber has been on several Teen Mom shows and spin-offs.

Since she’s a reality star, a lot of the guys she was meeting already knew most of her story and life.

It put her at a disadvantage because she didn’t know them as intimately as they knew her.

It also made dating a challenge because she was never sure if they were interested in her or interested in the fame she could bring to them.

Gary, on the other hand, had never watched any of the Teen Mom shows.

He had no idea who she was, so Amber felt like she could date him properly.

They could get to know each other at the same time.

The couple are also devoted to making things work.

They entered couple’s therapy early to work on things like communication with each other.

They wanted to avoid any problems that might come up later by being able to talk to each other from the start.

Fans Worried About Gary 

Of the little that fans knew about Gary previously, they learned that he didn’t have kids of his own.

Amber has two children, with Leah being one of the most well-known, since she has been on Teen Mom shows before, too.

Despite not having children, Gary is allegedly very family-oriented since he looks after his parents.

Fans only recently met Gary, too, as Amber introduced him to the rest of the Teen Mom: The Next Chapter cast.

During that meeting, Amber introduced Gary as her boyfriend and said that they were an official couple now.

Now, while some fans have expressed worries over Gary and are hoping he’s alright, there are others who are making light of the situation.

Some of the fans who commented on the police department’s Facebook post have made jokes about how Gary has ghosted Amber, how the original Gary is helping him hide, and others saying that if they were with Amber, they’d go missing, too.

Another fan mentioned that Amber has a history of violence and illegal substance use, and they hoped that Gary was found safe.

How Amber Portwood Ruined Her Daughter’s, Leah, Birthday

This isn’t the first major drama to hit Amber recently, either.

In the same Teen Mom episode where Amber introduced Gary, she also called her daughter, Leah, a terrible word.

It was on her birthday, no less!

The episode showed Leah’s 15th birthday, which was at a restaurant with family members.

Her dad, Gary Shirley, and his wife, Kristina, were there with their daughter, Emilee.

Amber was also invited to celebrate her daughter’s 15th birthday, but she didn’t arrive until an hour after the party started.

When she did arrive, she started making the event about her.

She was showing off her new boyfriend, Gary, to Leah, but Leah wasn’t interested in getting to know who her mom was dating.

She looked uncomfortable and refused to look at a photo of Gary that Amber was trying to show her.

Leah did eventually say that she hoped Gary made Amber happy.

However, her reluctance caused Amber to call her a derogatory name that made her cry.

Then, Amber and Gary Shirley started fighting.

Gary had asked Kristina what time it was and that made Amber mad for some reason.

The two started arguing until Leah asked them to stop.

The dinner became so bad that Leah eventually asked to go to the bathroom.

Kristina and Emilee joined her.

When the girls came out, they collected Gary and left the restaurant, and Amber, behind.

The scene ended with Amber crying alone at the restaurant.

Fans, and even some of Amber’s fellow cast mates, were not happy about what they had witnessed.

Amber Portwood Called Her Own Daughter a Derogatory Term

The biggest problem they had was the derogatory term that Amber used.

Briana DeJesus even made a Tweet, which she later deleted, saying that parents should never call their children names.

Even her ex agreed and said that Gary had done well by keeping calm.

Other cast mates talked about how self-centered Amber was.

They said that she had made Leah’s birthday all about her.

They also claimed that this was something Amber always did.

Instead of connecting with her daughter, she always made everything about her.

Fans were also not pleased by Amber’s behavior, saying that she made her daughter cry on her birthday.

Although the filming for this episode happened months earlier, and thus is old news in Amber’s life, she’s only just now getting hit with backlash since the episode recently aired.

With that backlash and her missing boyfriend, Amber is having a rough start to the month of June.

Here’s hoping Gary is found safe and well.

Will Smith Has Reportedly Moved On from Jada

Since Jada Pinkett Smith confirmed that she and husband Will Smith were separated, eyes have been on who they are now with. It looks like Will Smith has moved on with someone who looks remarkably like his former wife.

In October 2023, Pinkett Smith shocked the world with the revelation that she and her husband had separated, The Root reminds everyone. This wasn’t a recent decision, either. While promoting her book Worthy, she shared that the two had separated six years ago.

This was despite the two being seen in public together. This was all after the Oscar slap that was heard around the world. While disclosing all this, Smith stood by Pinkett Smith, sharing that he loved her and would have hugged her more if he had “read the book 30 years ago.”

Will Smith Spotted With Mystery Woman at Movie Premiere

While Smith attended the Bad Boys: Ride or Die movie premiere in Miami, fans spotted him with someone who had a striking resemblance to Pinkett Smith. The name of the woman is still unknown, but fans could not help compare her shaved head and lighter-colored skin compared to Smith to his former wife. She did not walk the red carpet with the actor, but she was spotted with him at other points of the premiere event. The similarities in looks have led to publications naming her a Pinkett Smith lookalike.

This is not the first time she has been spotted with Smith. The Daily Mail reports that she was with him in December 2023. She was with him at two Art Basel events in Miami, suggesting that she is a Miami resident.

During one of the art events, onlookers noted that the two remained separate from each other until it came to leaving. They were spotted getting into the same limo. The two were later seen at a favorite pizza spot with some of Smith’s friends.

Will Smith Said He Had Made ‘A Ton of Mistakes’

Earlier this year, Smith talked about his marriage problems, also admitting that he and Pinkett Smith had lived apart since 2016. He took the blame, sharing that he had made “a ton of mistakes.”

He has not talked about the mystery woman. Fans speculate that he has moved on. It is possible that this is just a platonic friendship, someone supporting Smith when he is in Miami. The connection to another woman has led to many fans wondering what the slap at the Oscars was all about.

It is worth noting that Pinkett Smith is still a supporter of Smith’s career. She was on the red carpet with him at the LA premiere of Bad Boys: Ride or Die, along with their children. Jada also attended the Dubai screening, according to Yahoo!

Jada Pinkett Smith has shared that the two are just trying to figure things out. They are two people in a relationship, trying to deal with their public image as well as their private lives.
