OLIVIA CULPO’S FOOTBALL HUBBY CHRISTIAN Mc CAFFREY HAS A SIDE JOB

Former Miss Universe turned television personality and model, Olivia Culpo, and her newlywed husband, San Francisco 49er Christian McCaffrey recently dropped nearly $15 million to buy an estate in Studio City California from George Clooney. Although Christian inked a 2-year contract worth $24 million from the pro football team, Olivia isn’t taking any chances on their cash flow. She knows that in the rough and tumble world of football, a player could be sidelined with an injury and her husband is already suffering from Achilles tendonitis. According to my source, Olivia has introduced her handsome hubby to the world of modeling and he recently landed his first big gig with Movado watches. He’s also up for a GAP/Banana Republic campaign and more. Olivia is using her years of modeling experience and connections to help guide Christian and his blossoming side hustle.

SCIENTOLOGY IS WATCHING LEAH REMINI

It’s been well reported that Scientology can be ruthless in going after their perceived enemies and former member Leah Remini is currently in their line of fire. According to my source, the powers that be at Scientology are now trying to woo Leah’s estranged husband Angelo Pagan! Leah and Angelo recently announced they were divorcing and some Scientologists saw this as an opportunity to get Angelo on THEIR side. Angelo quit the group back in 2013 along with Leah, but now that he and Leah are kaput, the group wants to get dirt and ammunition FROM HIM in their ongoing quest to destroy Leah. My source says THAT is very unlikely, because Angelo was never fond of the organization, and only went along to please Leah.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Emma Roberts made headlines when she remarked that Hollywood women are far more often called out as “nepo babies” than Hollywood men, while appearing on the podcast Table for Two. She pointed out George Clooney as the ultimate nepo baby. Emma had a valid point: although George is talented, his aunt was the iconic Rosemary Clooney which opened doors for him in Hollywood. Although she sort of backtracked her comments, Emma’s aunt, who just happens to also be one of George’s best friends, Julia Roberts, was miffed over the incident. Our source told us that hours after the podcast became news, Julia got on the phone to Emma and gave her quite the earful. We can reveal that Emma, at Julia’s urging, reached out to George and apologized for bringing his name up. Even though Julia was upset, good-natured George just laughed it off.

Alec Baldwin made the news again for all the wrong reasons. This week his attorneys asked the New Mexico judge to dismiss the case against him over firearm evidence. The long shot move is unlikely to fly and here’s what we know. Behind very closed doors Alec’s legal eagles are trying to negotiate a plea deal which will allow him to serve any time in house arrest, pay a substantial fine, and work on legislation banning REAL guns on movie sets. Nothing has been agreed to as of yet, but secret negotiations continue.

Estranged lovebirds Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez created some buzz when they were spotted in the same Beverly Hills office building. Although they arrived and left separately we are hearing that the “meeting” was actually part of a therapy session. Ben arrived first and had an individual session, and then later in the day J.Lo arrived to join him for a joint couples session. Their future together seems to change by the moment, but they want to make sure they give their marriage every chance to survive.

Miranda Lambert’s handsome hubby, former NYC cop Brendan McLoughlin made news and she ain’t happy about it. Brendan was seen getting chummy with other females that weren’t his wife, and he did it at the Nashville bar, Casa Rosa, that Miranda’s OWNS! While Brendan claimed he was just being a good host (he occasionally works there) we are hearing that Miranda was nonetheless irked at his misstep, and put him on notice that he won’t be hanging out in her bar, or any other bar for that matter, unless she’s WITH him!

Finally to end the week on an uplifting note, Selma Blair was spotted all over Paris this week looking great during the countless fashion shows. We know this. Selma’s trip wasn’t all pleasure. The brave MS sufferer also spent a great deal of time meeting with designers to encourage them to include canes in their accessories. Selma relies on a cane to help her with stability issues caused by the MS and she’s made no secret that it’s hard to find anything stylish. As my source puts it, Selma wants to make canes more attractive and fashionable.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

After over a month of being in two hospitals, first UCLA and then Cedars Sinai, Kate Beckinsale gave a hint on social media that she was suffering from stomach issues. Here’s what we know: For years, Kate has suffered from severe acid reflux, which gets worse when she’s going through stressful times. The death of her stepfather threw her into a tizzy and her acid reflux was SO bad that she was vomiting after every meal – don’t get this confused with bulimia though. Kate finally seems to have gotten the problem under control, but is now on a very restricted diet to control her body’s overproduction of acid.

Travis Kelce just signed a 20 episode deal with Amazon Prime Video to host the upcoming game show, Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity? What he DIDN’T reveal in the announcement is that he’s counting on his girlfriend Taylor Swift to get her famous celebrity friends to appear on his show. Here’s another interesting tidbit: Travis’ deal promises him a huge bonus if he gets Taylor to appear. According to our source, she hasn’t agreed, but she also hasn’t said no.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s estranged husband Ryan Anderson might be making lemonade from the lemons his marriage turned into. Gypsy Rose claimed that she was divorcing Ryan over many things, including his habit of hoarding food. Plus-sized Ryan has been offered an endorsement deal to lose up to 200 pounds using a new diet drug that’s similar to Ozempic, and hitting the market soon. Our source says that Ryan has wanted to slim down for a while and is motivated by the upcoming divorce to get in the best shape of his life.

Valerie Bertinelli made the news over her new romance with East Coast based writer Mike Goodnough. After hinting about the romance for weeks, Valerie and Mike just went public. While they’re claiming it will be a long distance relationship since he lives on the East Coast and she lives in Malibu, we are hearing that Valerie is already looking at property in Manhattan. She’s planning to spend a lot of time in the New York area now that she’s dating Mike, and wants a condo on the Upper West Side.

Finally, one last interesting Donald Trump tidbit. His criminal trial started in New York City this week and my source is revealing that his attorneys aren’t so thrilled about the thought of having every lunch with Donald. Here’s why: It’s customary for attorneys and their clients to have lunch together during courtroom breaks, but paranoid Donald is so afraid that someone will poison him, that he insists on only eating fast food for lunch. While his attorneys realize they need to spend this time with him going over the trial, some of them have started packing their own lunches so they don’t have to subject themselves to Donald’s daily doses of fast food.

GYPSY ROSE BLANCHARD: YOUR HUSBAND AND YOUR MOM LOOK ALIKE!

Are we CRAZY or does Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s HUSBAND bear a striking and not-so-coincidental resemblance to her MOTHER? These two photos have been circulating in the news and when we saw them side by side we were shocked. While Gypsy was in prison for murdering her sick (Munchausen by proxy) mother Dee Dee, her future husband, Ryan Anderson, wrote her a supportive letter and they started a romance. In 2022 they were married at the prison.Was Gypsy attracted to Ryan because he looked eerily familiar?

REESE WITHERSPOON’S DIVORCE IS NO SURPRISE TO FRIENDS

What went wrong? Reese Witherspoon and her husband Jim Toth made headlines when they announced they were divorcing after 11 years of marriage, but a friend of the couple reveals this was no surprise to their inner circle. Nothing nefarious was going on – the insider says this was just a case of Reese wanting MORE and Jim wanting LESS- of Hollywood! Reese’s career is red hot as both an actress AND a producer, thanks to Big Little Lies and The Morning Show. She’s far busier now than when she first met Jim. For his part, Jim’s career as an agent is no longer his top priority and he wanted to enjoy his golden years away from Hollywood. Friends have watched Reese and Jim growing apart for a few years and the couple finally admitted they just want different things.

BETTE MIDLER’S LIPS ARE NOT SEALED

Bette Midler and her husband Martin von Haselberg are separating, but only for the sake of his art. According to an insider, their marriage is rock solid, but Martin (who is a performance artist) demands complete silence when he’s working on his art and -let’s face it – chatterbox Bette is anything but quiet. With Bette’s approval, Martin has been looking for a pied a terre in West Hollywood, California, (not far from their LA home) so he can escape his noisy domicile and work on his art, and occasionally sleep there.

ROBIN WRIGHT’S DOG IS KEEPING UP THE PACE

Robin Wright and her comparatively new and younger husband (married summer of 2018) Clement Giraudet, were rarely seen out together until Covid-19 arrived, and now they are active and outside every day. Clement is the VIP relations manager for Saint Laurent and since celebrities have stopped borrowing designer clothes for the duration, Clement has a lot of free time. He’s spending it exercising outdoors with Robin. They ride bikes, walk their dog, and stroll around the west side daily – without benefit of masks or gloves. We wonder if Robin is as exhausted as their dog appears to be in this photo from yesterday…

WARNING: EMILY RATAJKOWSKI AND HUSBAND ARE NOW RENTING IN CALIFORNIA!

Emily Ratajkowski and her husband Sebastian Bear-McCord are in New York with their dog Colombo, and grabbed some New York pizza they’ve been missing since they moved to Echo Park in LA. They finally vacated the Manhattan loft they didn’t pay rent on for two years and the landlord sued them for $250,000 for damages. Sebastian was one of the producers of Adam Sandler’s successful film Uncut Gems, so it looks like the landlord might finally get his money.
