On the back of the allegations against Diddy, country star Jelly Roll has shared his own experience with the music mogul.
The singer revealed last Friday on the Canceled With Tana Mongeau podcast that he had once swerved a meeting with Diddy.
Jelly and his wife Bunny were on the podcast to talk about his crazy ride to stardom in the last year or so.
Why Jelly Roll Did Not Want to Meet Diddy
Jelly shared a story about being scheduled to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live! alongside Diddy, who he was supposed to meet backstage.
Jelly said, “This is the first time in my career, ever, where they said, ‘Do you want to meet such and such?’ And I said ‘Yeah’.”
He went on to say that he started walking in Diddy’s direction, before doing a total u-turn.
He explained, “And as I was getting down the hallway – this is a true story – I said, ‘Nah,’ and went and got back in the car.”
Jelly admitted that he didn’t “know what it was” that made him change his mind about meeting Diddy.
Jelly Roll’s Confession: Doesn’t Want to ‘Meet the Guy’ Who’s Allegedly Responsible for Tupac’s Passing
He even confessed that he made a pretty dark joke at the time about not wanting to “meet the guy” who allegedly was responsible for Tupac’s passing.
However, he added that “nobody thought that was funny.”
And he concluded, “Very seldom do things rub me in a way where I was like, ‘I don’t even know if that’s a picture I want.’”
And said of Diddy that he “didn’t even know who this human is.”
Before he told his story, Jelly voiced his concern that he might “get in trouble” for what he was going to say about Diddy.
He also emphasized that he was not just telling the story to jump on the back of a “hot topic.”
However, there’s no doubt that the alleged investigation against 54-year-old Diddy is one of the biggest stories out there right now.
Several celebs have come forward to share anecdotes about their interactions with Diddy.
After the recent raids on his mansions and being named in the new alleged SA case against his son, Diddy was pictured sitting with his mother in his Miami home.
Jelly Roll and His Wife’s, Bunnie, Flight Scare
A few days after his podcast interview, Jelly made the headlines again after he and Bunny endured a flight scare over the weekend.
CNN reported that the singer and his wife were on their way to the CMT Music Awards on Sunday when their private jet was forced to make an emergency landing.
This was reportedly due to the plane experiencing technical difficulties mid-flight.
Bunnie later shared a video on social media showing the pilot explaining the situation to the famous passengers.
In the video, Jelly can be heard joking, “At least it wasn’t the brakes!”
Just like when he avoided meeting Diddy, Jelly was quick to see the funny side of a potentially dangerous near miss.
His ex, KT Smith, spoke with The Daily Beast to dispel rumors. She said that although it may seem like the two events are related because they happened so close to each other, she doesn’t think her marriage announcement led Morgan to throw a chair off of a balcony.
She added that she certainly hopes that’s the case, although she doesn’t know for sure since she hasn’t spoken to Morgan about it.
KT Said She Was Praying for Morgan
KT finished her statement by saying she was praying for Morgan and was hopeful that the outburst was just a mistake and that he’d get back on a good path soon.
Rumors started to swirl when the news broke that Morgan had been arrested for disorderly conduct and reckless endangerment on April 7th in Nashville.
Some sources told The Daily Mail that Morgan learned about the news of the marriage and threw the chair off the balcony as a result.
Those sources were uncredited, however, and KT was quick to put them to an end.
The reason for Morgan’s outburst is still unknown.
KT and Morgan Had a Tumultuous Relationship
KT and Morgan were together for three years and were even engaged at one point in their relationship. They later decided to call off the engagement, however, and resumed dating each other. Toward the end of their relationship, KT became pregnant, but it wasn’t enough to save the relationship.
KT described the last year of their relationship as toxic. By the time she gave birth to their baby, Indigo, they had broken up. KT found love again, however, with Luke Scornavacco.
The couple dated for a few years before Luke proposed to KT at Magnolia Farm in Tennessee. They shared several pictures on Instagram, which covered the big day.
In the photos, Luke was down on one knee and presenting a ring to KT. The photos also had KT’s baby with Morgan there. He was all smiles as the newly engaged couple posed with him.
While KT moving on with a new relationship didn’t surprise fans, the speed with which she got married did. Only six days after she was engaged, she and Luke got married.
Morgan’s Arrest Followed KT’s Wedding News
She announced the news on Instagram with a picture that showed her and Like holding up their marriage license together. A few days later, Morgan threw a chair off of a balcony at a bar in Nashville.
Two police officers were at the bar when the crime occurred. They witnessed a chair fall on the street only three feet from them.
When they asked people in the bar what had happened, they were told that Morgan had picked up a chair and thrown it off the balcony for no reason.
Some even alleged that he laughed afterward. Because Morgan could have seriously hurt someone, the police arrested him. He was in jail until three in the morning on Monday, after he posted bail.
Morgan is scheduled to arrive in court on May 3rd.

Diddy has been a constant in the news for a while now. The more times he pops up on the news, the more names are associated with him and the scandal.
One of the most recent names associated with Diddy happens to be Daphne Joy. If you’re wondering who Daphne is, well let’s just say she’s 50 Cent’s ex-girlfriend. And you are not going to believe how Daphne got entangled with Diddy.
But first Daphne isn’t just 50 Cent’s ex. She’s a model and has been in a few movies here and there. She was even a mermaid in one of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies and also has a swimwear line.
Between 2010 and 2013, Daphne dated 50 Cent and in 2012, she gave birth to their son, Sire Jackson. Not long after giving birth to their son, Daphne, and 50 Cent started having troubles in their relationship.
After a while, they decided to call it quits and co-parent together. For the most part, 50 Cent and Daphne have been doing a pretty good job. But then things started to get shaky in 2021.
It was because of photos of Diddy and Daphne looking very comfortable together that spread like wildfire. They were also sparking rumors that Diddy and Daphne were seeing each other.
Now at this point, neither Daphne nor Diddy came out to say anything about their relationship. But it didn’t do anything to help slow down the rumor that they were dating.
50 Cent Was Really Chill About the Situation
So when the rumors of Diddy dating his baby mama got around to 50 Cent, well, everyone expected 50 Cent to say something and he did. But I don’t think anyone was expecting what 50 Cent had to say about the rumors.
Now, in case you don’t know, let’s just say that 50 Cent is an expert troll. So everyone expected 50 Cent to drop a roasting remark.
I mean if 50 Cent did that, no one would bat an eye. But instead 50 Cent seemed nonchalant about the news.
He reacted to the news on an Instagram post. He basically said that even though he and Diddy have been feuding for years over music and business, he doesn’t care if Diddy is dating Daphne. According to 50 Cent, “If he like the girl, he like the girl”
Now when everyone saw this response, it was a bit shocking because no one expected 50 Cent to be that chill about it. But then one year later, the 50 Cent we all know came out.
It happened in 2022; before now, the rumors of Diddy and Daphne dating had died down. Since neither Diddy nor Daphne confirmed if they were dating, everyone was left to decide if they believed the rumors or not.
But the rumor started circling again when Daphne posted clips of herself at the iHeart Music Radio festival. According to The Sun, Daphne made a video of herself in front of the stage.
Now you might be wondering why this would spark the rumors again. Well turns out Diddy was going to be performing at the festival.
50 Cent Shaded Diddy and Daphne on Social Media
Now you might be thinking, well it might just be a coincidence. But something else happened because just after the festival, Daphne posted a picture of herself in a private jet.
Guess who else posted pictures of himself in that same private jet? Well if you guessed Diddy, you’re right.
At this point, the rumor was at its strongest. And then 50 Cent decided to enter the picture.
50 Cent posted a picture of himself and his son, Sire wearing matching yellow sunglasses and looking right at the camera. Which is pretty harmless until you get to the caption that 50 Cent wrote. In the caption, 50 Cent made it seem like Sire and him were looking at Daphne while she was hanging out with Diddy.
And it didn’t stop there, because in the very next line, 50 Cent was apparently reminding Sire of what he had told him earlier about people being crazy. It was pretty obvious that 50 Cent didn’t care for who Daphne was hanging out with.
This led Daphne to comment on the post that she disapproved of how 50 Cent was referencing her. Not just that but instead 50 Cent should focus on how good of a mother she has been to their son. And also to respect her choice to keep her personal life personal.
Yet 50 Cent’s post had all but confirmed her relationship with Diddy at the time. But then again a lot of people understood where 50 Cent was coming from.
It’s a bit below the belt to co-parent your child with your baby daddy, and then start dating one of his biggest enemies. But at the same time, it is pretty obvious that 50 Cent might have taken it too far then.
Daphne Just Wants to Be Left Alone
Even Daphne felt the need to speak out about what 50 Cent had done. So Daphne made a post because she felt the narrative about her seeing Diddy was very wrong and she was getting attacked for it.
In the post, Daphne explained that she had dated 50 Cent and they had a child. Since their split, she has been taking good care of their son.
She just wants to be happy and left alone. Life happened to lead her to Diddy, and Daphne felt that it was wrong that she was being made to look like the bad guy for it.
Well, all this drama happened back in 2022 but when Daphne was listed in the lawsuit against Diddy, it all resurfaced again. And when I say all, it includes 50 Cent’s trolling.
Except this time Daphne was not mentioned as Diddy’s girlfriend or ex-girlfriend. Nope, it was worse because it was alleged that Daphne was one of the females that Diddy paid to work for him.
But when I say work, I mean be an escort if you know what I mean. If it’s still a bit unclear, think about the world’s oldest profession.
50 Cent Is Seeking Full Custody of Sire
Now since this happened, 50 Cent started trolling Daphne. I mean before now, 50 Cent was a bit focused on just Diddy.
But when word got out that even back then Diddy and Daphne’s might have been more transactional than what everyone else thought. Well, let’s just say 50 Cent has been going out of his way to let everyone know what Daphne was referred to as in the lawsuit.
And it’s not just on social media. Clips are circulating with 50 Cent referencing Daphne in a not-so-nice way while on stage.
And just like last time, Daphne has had something to say back to 50 Cent. But no one was ready for what Daphne had to say.
She started by calling out 50 Cent by his government name and then went ahead to allege that despite what was said about her relationship with Diddy, her relationship with 50 Cent was more chaotic. Daphne went on to allege that while she was with 50 Cent, he had put his hands on her. And not just that, according to Daphne, 50 Cent had allegedly forced himself on her but yet he was coming to mock her despite what had happened in their relationship.
At this point, it looks like Daphne has given up on having something amicable with 50 Cent. But after what Daphne alleged, 50 Cent’s legal team came out to debunk what Daphne said.
That’s not where they are stopping because with all that is going on now with Daphne and Diddy, 50 Cent has filed a lawsuit seeking full custody of Sire. Through all this drama since 2021, Diddy hasn’t made a statement about his relationship with Daphne. I guess knowing he got to 50 Cent’s baby mama is another thing Diddy has over 50 Cent.

The power of social media has made one woman’s life a lot easier after her husband ran away from home. According to The New York Post, Ashley McGuire has been searching for her husband, who abandoned her and their children for some time.
On April 6th, Ashley posted on a popular Facebook group called “Are We Dating the Same Guy?” The Facebook group is designed to help women share information to determine if a guy is cheating or has another family that he’s hiding.
In the post, Ashley explained that she’s a single mother of two children. She was married to a man named Charles Withers, who she claimed loved to be the center of attention.
Charles had a stint on reality TV, too, which made his face easy to remember. He was a local celebrity first, gaining a lot of attention in the Falmouth dining scene in Massachusetts.
He was the star of the up-and-coming seafood restaurant, C Salt Wine Bar and Grille. Most famously, he was on an episode of Chopped in 2022.
Charles Just Disappeared
Around that time, however, trouble began for Ashley. According to Ashley’s Facebook post, they got married and then had a child together. When Ashley became pregnant again, she had no idea that Charles would leave before even meeting their new baby.
Yet, according to the post, one day, he disappeared without notice. Ashley claimed that Charles left the area and changed his phone number so that no one could contact him, including his wife.
When it came to the restaurant, Charles also left his employees with nothing. Allegedly, before he disappeared, he sold all the gift cards that the restaurant had, which gave him enough money to flee the state of Massachusetts. Unfortunately, this meant that customers who had bought those gift cards had unusable ones.
The employees were also left with unpaid wages. The restaurant closed since its leading operator was no longer there.
Ashley said in her post that Charles was probably going by Charlie and that he had one child he hadn’t seen in a year, plus one child he’d never met. She described Charles as being really charming and British.
She also said he was probably working in the hospitality industry since he was a trained chef. It was also likely that he never told anyone that he had a wife and children back in Massachusetts.
Social Media Users Quickly Found Him
Ashley wanted to find Charles because she wanted him to sign divorce papers. Since she had no idea where he was, she couldn’t get divorced from him since she needed his signature. She asked if anyone was working for him, dating him, or just knew where he was to contact her so she could get her papers signed.
Social media didn’t let Ashley down. In less than 24 hours, Ashley started receiving messages from women who had matched with Charles on various dating sites.
One woman said she had matched with Charles on Bumble. Another woman said she knew his address and phone number, and she said that Charles was now living in Texas.
As the story reached more people, especially on TikTok, Ashley received a lot of information and support. She made another post saying she now had enough information to find him and get her papers signed.
She thanked everyone for helping her out and for supporting her. Ashley also paid special attention to her fellow single mothers, with some who have likely experienced the same thing she has. With his information, Ashley said she could finally restart her life with her children and fix the damage that Charles did to her.
Courtney Blackmore was born with cystic hygroma, a birth defect that affects the appearance of her face, leaves her unable to close her mouth and also has an impact on her voice.
At 27 years old, she has faced her fair share of challenges and been bullied for her disability. In September 2023, she and her husband welcomed a baby girl – and Courtney discovered just how mean some people can be.
Trolls Told Courtney that She Doesn’t Deserve to Be a Mom
“I have gotten a lot of hate about me being pregnant and that I don’t deserve to be a mum,” she told KidSpot. “People saying my daughter doesn’t deserve to have her life.”
However, Courtney said that she tries to ignore those types of comments because they’re not “worth her time.” Every once in a while, she does clap back.
“There are moments where I will respond to people and talk to them and be like, ‘Hey, this is not how it goes, and making ignorant or ableist comments is not going to fly with me,’” she added.
Her daughter, Seraphina Rose Kay, was born healthy. Courtney knew that her daughter wouldn’t be born with the same birth defect as her. “Medically, I had already been tested genetically – we knew that I wasn’t a carrier of my own birth defect, so I was not worried,” she said.
Courtney Hasn’t Let Her Disability Stop Her
Courtney hasn’t let her disability stop her from pursuing her dreams. For example, she met her husband Rayden in 2021 while playing Call of Duty. The two hit it off and eventually met in person.
Soon enough, they moved together to Idaho to start their family. In March 2023, they announced that they were expecting a baby. Courtney has shared highlights from her pregnancy journey on social media, where she has also received plenty of support.
Courtney started posting singing videos on YouTube several years ago, showcasing her passion for singing and pitch-perfect voice. “Singing is one of my outlets,” she shared in aMetro interview when she was only 20. “If I was being bullied or going through a rough patch, it is the way I found to express myself.”
“It’s an expression of me and it doesn’t matter what people say. It is my choice and if people don’t like it, they can just click the next video.”
According to Metro, Courtney went through years of speech and language therapy and has had over 20 facial surgeries. She told the outlet that she is comfortable with the way she looks and wouldn’t have any more surgeries unless it was medically required.
Courtney embraces self-expression and self-acceptance and she also plans on extending that unconditional love to her child. “Even if my child was disabled, I would love my child no matter what,” she told KidSpot.
“For anyone who doesn’t understand people who are disabled who have children, don’t always jump to conclusions, and don’t always think that everything is genetic or that people who are disabled can’t take care of their children.”
Cameron Diaz isn’t letting age stop her from becoming a mother again. According to Cameron’s Instagram page, she welcomed a new baby at the end of March. The post showed a drawing and painting with the words “A little bird whispered to me” on it.
In the caption, Cameron said that she and her husband, Benji Madden, had welcomed a son into their family. They named him Cardinal, and according to Cameron, he’s very cute.
Fans wanting to see the new baby will have to wait, however. Cameron added that she wouldn’t be sharing pictures of her kids just yet for their safety and privacy. She finished the post by saying she was feeling grateful for their new arrival and gave best wishes to everyone.
Cardinal is the second child that Cameron has with Benji. The couple tried to conceive a child through traditional means, but they were unable to find success. They even tried to get help with fertility treatments like acupuncture, supplements, and IVF.
They finally decided to use a surrogate to have their first daughter and then did the same thing for their second child. Their first child, Raddix, was born in 2019, and Cameron also shared the news via Instagram. At the time, she again made the decision to hold off on sharing photos of Raddix until she was older.
Benji Composes Songs for the Kids
There’s no doubt that Cameron has enjoyed being a mother, either. During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, she talked about what it was like to be a new mother.
Lockdowns for COVID-19 were happening at the time, so Jimmy asked her what life was like in lockdown with her new daughter. Cameron said it was the best time because she loved spending time with Raddix.
She also said that those people who say time goes by so fast when the kids are babies were right. She explained that her daughter was growing, changing, and learning so fast that she was always a completely new baby by the next day.
When Jimmy asked about how Benji was doing as a father, she said that he was the best father. Benji is the lead guitar and backup vocalist for the band Good Charlotte. He also sings with his brother, Joel Madden, on other projects.
Being a musician, Benji has composed songs just for his kids. Cameron said that she often sings his songs, too, because they’re special and meant just for their children. Cameron finished by saying that having their daughter was the best thing that had happened to her and her husband.
She and Benji got married in 2015 after dating for a year. They formally met after Cameron threw a dinner party for his brother, Joel, and his wife, Nicole Richie. Cooking is still an important part of their family life to this day, too.
Although the couple often receives invitations for parties or other activities, they’ve reached a point where they prefer to stay home. Cameron says her favorite way to wind down at night is to cook and have a glass of wine while enjoying whatever show she’s watching at the moment. With another child to add to the mix, their family life has become even more special.

Morgan Wallen is making headlines this week after being arrested for throwing a chair off a six-story balcony, nearly hitting police officers, at Eric Church’s new bar on Broadway in Nashville, Chiefs. But now, conspiracy theories are surfacing about what’s really going on with Morgan.
This all occurred just days after his ex-fiance and baby mama, Katie Dell Smith, got engaged and married to her much younger boyfriend, Luke Scornavacco. And some fans are worried that Morgan might be lashing out as a result of that.
But why? The reasons are darker and more twisted than you could ever expect.
The conspiracy theories surrounding Morgan Wallen’s arrest are running wild right now. And almost all of them have to do with his ex, Katie Dell Smith.
Last week, she shocked her Instagram followers when she announced that she was engaged to her 22-year-old boyfriend, Luke Scornavacco. Just a few days later, she shocked everyone again by announcing that they had gotten married.
As everyone began theorizing why got married, Katie took to Instagram to confirm that she’s not pregnant with Luke’s baby. She even posted a Clearblue pregnancy test with the results “Not pregnant.”
However, that didn’t stop fans from theorizing that Morgan’s recent meltdown at Eric Church’s bar was because of Katie. Fans wondered if Morgan was so upset about his ex-fiance and baby mama getting married that he caused a scene at the bar, leading to his arrest.
Many people commented on the fact that Morgan wasn’t ever able to get it together for Katie. Now he seems to be upset that another man is going to be raising his son. While that may be the case, this story goes much deeper than that.
Morgan Is Worried About His Custody of Indie
Morgan and Katie have allegedly been in a custody battle for years now. And a large portion of it has to do with her relationship with Luke.
According to insiders on Reddit, Morgan started fighting with Katie over custody of their son, Indigo Wilder, when she started dating Luke. The reason why is a little disturbing. Allegedly, Morgan had a problem with Luke moving into Katie’s house for a few different reasons.
First of all, he didn’t like that he was moving in and living with his son so soon after the two had begun their relationship. Second of all, he didn’t like that Indie was sharing a bed with not only Katie but Luke too.
Allegedly, the judge sided with Morgan, and Luke was required to move out of the house because he and Katie were not married. Many have begun speculating that the reason for the quick engagement and wedding was simply so that Luke could move back in with Katie to get around Morgan’s concerns.
Now that they’re married, Morgan doesn’t have a leg to stand on in court. Many Morgan Wallen fans believe that this might’ve been the actual reason for his outburst on Broadway this week. Not because he’s still hung up on Katie, but because he’s worried about what this means for Indie and their custody issues.
Either way, fans everywhere are worried about Morgan Wallen’s behavior lately. Many are arguing that he’s a 31-year-old father who needs to start acting like an adult. While others are simply worried about his well-being as he’s clearly struggling with using substances.
Bigi “Blanket” Jackson has been making headlines like crazy lately because he’s suing his own grandmother, Katherine Jackson. Let’s get into the truth behind their legal battle, because the reason he’s taking her to court is seriously surprising.
When Michael Jackson tragically passed away in 2009, all three of his children were minors. But Bigi was the youngest at just 7 years old. The kids went to live with Katherine, who was declared their legal guardian and was later granted custodial rights.
Bigi, who’s now 22 years old, has always been the most private of his siblings. He usually stays out of the public eye. So when news recently broke that he had decided to sue his paternal grandma, everyone was completely shocked.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Bigi filed a motion against his grandma in mid-March. In the filing, he asked the judge to block Katherine from using funds from his late father’s estate to cover certain costs.
Though the filing sounds extreme, Bigi isn’t trying to completely prevent his grandma from having access to the estate’s money. He only requested that she not be allowed to use those funds to pay for her attorney fees, related to a specific case. Bigi doesn’t want Katherine to be able to use the estate’s money to foot the bill for the legal expenses from her latest objections and appeal.
Bigi Previously Supported His Grandma’s Legal Decisions
But Peoplemagazine reported that he wasn’t totally against her using some funds from the estate to cover those costs. The conditions he explained in his filing were detailed in a surprising way.
Bigi stated that he was on board with Katherine using money from the estate to pay for a ‘reasonable’ amount of her appeal-related legal expenses. He said that because she initially provided “essential evidence” to the court, he didn’t object to the estate’s funds being used to cover some of her attorney fees.
However, Bigi claimed that he believed the amount of legal fees his grandmother wanted the estate to pay was too high. He thought it was unnecessary that she hired multiple lawyers who charged hourly rates between $840 and $1,400.
It’s also important to understand Bigi’s previous stance. He hasn’t always been against the legal decisions his grandma has made.
Interestingly, he was actually in agreement with her as recently as last year. But the reason why he specifically had an issue with Katherine’s objections and appeal was honestly bizarre.
According to Billboard, Michael’s estate asked the court to approve a major business transaction in 2022. It was reportedly a deal to sell half of his music catalog to Sony for a whopping $600 million. But what happened next was truly unbelievable.
Katherine didn’t think the estate should go through with the deal before hearing other offers that might be higher. So she filed an objection. At the time, Bigi and his siblings sided with her, even though they weren’t formally included in her written objection.
John Branca and John McClain Are Against Katherine’s Request
In April 2023, the judge made a final decision regarding the deal, and it was seriously startling. Ultimately, the judge ruled in favor of the estate and approved the multi-million dollar deal.
Although Bigi and his siblings accepted the situation, Katherine decided to file an appeal that’s still pending. But it wasn’t until a few months ago that she filed the request that Bigi is currently suing her over.
In December, Katherine asked the court to have her legal fees covered by funds from the estate. This included the costs of the ongoing appeal, covered by funds from the estate.
However, the Billboard article also revealed that at the beginning of March, the co-executors of Michael’s estate filed an insane response. It turns out that the co-executors, John Branca and John McClain, are very against Katherine’s request.
They argued that her objections had clearly failed and that her appeal would be useless. They believed that the estate shouldn’t cover those expenses, which totaled over $560,000.
John Branca and John McClain’s filing mentioned that the estate was currently valued at over $2 billion. They added that 15 years ago, it was racked with an unreal amount of debt. But they stressed that the estate’s financial growth could only be credited to its recent business transactions, including the $600 million deal with Sony.
John Branca and John McClain’s response also revealed that they had granted almost every single request for funds that Katherine has made since Michael passed away. Over the years, she’s reportedly received more than $55 million in financial assistance from the estate.
Katherine Wasn’t Listed as a Beneficiary
But as bizarre as it might sound, Katherine isn’t even one of the estate’s beneficiaries. In Michael’s will, he set aside a separate trust fund solely for Katherine. According to Peoplemagazine, other than various charities, the only beneficiaries of his estate are his three children.
When Bigi filed his injunction with the court a couple of weeks after the co-executors’ response, his statements were incredibly similar.Bigi claimed that if the court approved Katherine’s request to have the estate cover her legal expenses, it wouldn’t be fair to him or his siblings, who are reportedly supportive of his filing.
He explained that his grandma’s chances of winning the appeal were slim and basically called it a waste of time. Bigi made it clear that he didn’t think it would be right if he and his siblings were forced to pay all of their grandmother’s legal fees. He also explained that it wouldn’t benefit the estate at all.
But it wasn’t long before Katherine fired back against her grandson’s filing, and how she responded was absolutely outrageous. According to court documents obtained by Peoplemagazine, Katherine made a bold accusation against the estate’s co-executors.
She believed that John Branca and John McClain were too stingy with the amount of money awarded to the beneficiaries. But that wasn’t all.
Katherine then claimed that the estate had plenty of funds and could definitely afford to pay her legal expenses. She also dropped a major allegation regarding the co-executors’ supposed shady motives.
Bigi Is Trying to Protect Katherine
Katherine accused John Branca and John McClain of not awarding enough funds to Michael’s children and trust accounts. She even said that was the co-executors’ way of attempting to control the estate’s beneficiaries. But as strange as her allegations might have seemed, what happened after she filed her response was honestly crazy.
Recently, sources close to the Jackson family spoke to The New York Postabout why Bigi decided to sue Katherine. The insiders said his intentions behind taking his grandmother to court were reportedly in her best interest. What they revealed next was truly shocking.
The sources claimed that Bigi was doing exactly what his late father had done. He was allegedly protecting Katherine from some of the other members of the family. They explained that for years, certain people in the family had supposedly been taking advantage of her financially.
According to the insiders, Bigi didn’t want to deny Katherine any funds from the estate. But if his request for the judge to block her from using the estate’s money to pay for her insanely high legal bills is approved, the end result will be an unexpected victory for her as well.
If Katherine isn’t able to gain access to over half a million dollars from the estate to cover her legal fees, Bigi’s filing will have at least one remarkable benefit. None of the family members who have reportedly been manipulating Katherine into giving them her money will be able to take any more from her.
What one of the sources admitted next was seriously concerning. Allegedly, almost everyone in the family has financially benefited from Katherine’s access to the estate’s money.
Katherine Gave Up Fighting the Co-Executors
Even though it seems like she has been battling John Branca and John McClain in court for a while, the insider confessed that actually isn’t the case. The source told The New York Postthat Katherine supposedly gave up fighting against the estate’s co-executors long ago.
Certain family members are still desperately trying to get more money from the estate. They’ve been “calling the shots” behind the scenes.
The Jackson family insider claimed that Katherine’s name might be the only one listed in the court documents, but it’s really been her greedy relatives making the decisions. They added that Bigi would never financially cut off his grandma. But the reason why he’s suing “her” is allegedly to put a stop to the family members who have been taking advantage of her for years.
It’s honestly hard to know what to believe regarding the actual reason Bigi is taking Katherine to court. It’ll be interesting to see what the judge decides, and if any other crazy details will be exposed by the sources claiming to be close to the Jackson family.
She said that she had told Keke’s ex, whose name is Darius Jackson, that Usher was gay to protect her.
She felt the need to protect her because of a concert that Keke attended.
Earlier in 2023, Keke was attending one of Usher’s performances in Las Vegas.
There was an infamous moment when Usher went down to the crowd and started dancing with Keke.
The dancing seemed intimate, which got a lot of attention since Keke was publicly dating Darius at the time.
KeKe’s Mother Was Worried Keke’s Ex Would Abuse Her Daughter
Sharon was worried that Darius would see the video and abuse her daughter.
He had already been abusing her before the video was posted online.
If he saw the video, he might think Keke was cheating on him or misbehaving and then hurt her as a punishment.
To try and ease Darius’ temper, Sharon told him that Usher was gay.
She thought that if Darius and his family thought Usher wasn’t into women, then the video wouldn’t make as much of an impact.
He wouldn’t see Usher as a threat and thus wouldn’t feel the need to punish Keke.
Darius Illegally Recorded Their Phone Call and Posted It
Sharon never expected her phone call to be made public, however.
According to her post, she didn’t even know she was being recorded because it’s illegal to record someone else without their knowledge and consent.
Darius was the one who recorded her and then posted the phone call online for everyone to hear.
The post quickly spread on social media, making Usher trend.
When Sharon discovered that her phone call had been posted online, she quickly corrected the false information.
She told everyone she had lied to protect her daughter.
Keke’s Abusive Ex Abused Her in Front of Their Son
Keke and Darius had been together for two years before she finally left him in October 2023.
According to US Weekly, Keke went to court to get a restraining order for Darius following an intense fight they had.
On November 5th, even though they had broken up, Darius showed up at Keke’s home.
He wasn’t wanted there and hadn’t told her that he was coming.
When she answered the door, she claimed that he had lunged at her neck and hit her.
Darius had even allegedly thrown her over the couch.
Keke was able to provide video evidence of the fight to the court.
She also talked about other abuses.
Darius had allegedly destroyed some of her personal items, thrown some of her belongings onto the street, thrown her car keys away to prevent her from leaving, physically abused her even in front of their son, emotionally abused her in front of their son, and threatened to harm himself if she left him.
Along with the restraining order, Keke also filed for sole custody of their child.
