Split

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Elon Musk made the news with his much anticipated, but poorly executed interview with Donald Trump on his website X, formerly known as Twitter. Not only was the interview riddled with technical problems, but now Elon is persona non grata in some of his favorite Hollywood establishments. According to our source, Elon’s been told he’s not welcome at a private membership club where he was allowed to frequent even though he wasn’t a member. We heard his brown-nosing of Trump was the final straw for the management of the celebrity popular establishment.

Adele made headlines when she confirmed her engagement to professional sports agent, Rich Paul, while performing at a concert in Europe. We just heard what she DIDN’T reveal though. Although she and Rich aren’t married yet, that hasn’t stopped them from starting IVF treatments with a top Beverly Hills doctor. Adele, 36 and Rich, 43 want to start a family ASAP so that’s why they started the IVF procedure. They apparently have been trying to conceive for a year but have been unsuccessful.

We forgot that Elle King was the daughter of right wing nut job and former SNL funny man Rob Schneider, but this week her explosive interview where she bashed her dad for being anti-gay and for sending her to a fat farm as a teen made headlines. We just heard that Rob is desperate to mend fences with his daughter, offering to go to family therapy, but Elle let him know through mutual contacts (they don’t speak) thanks but no thanks.

Speaking of families in crisis, Brad Pitt’s adopted son Pax made headlines when he was severely injured in a motorbike accident in Los Feliz, an area of Los Angeles. We just heard that Brad attempted to visit Pax in the hospital but was turned away. Pax, like many of the other kids he shares with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie, wants NOTHING to do with Brad.

B-list celebrity and nepo baby, Sara Foster made headlines for splitting with her partner of 19 years, pro tennis star Tommy Haas. Here’s what we know. While other outlets reported that Sara and Tommy were married our well-placed source reveals they never legally wed and instead are common law partners. We also heard that allegations of infidelity are being tossed around on BOTH sides and this split will likely get UGLY.

We started with Donald Trump and will finish with Donald Trump for this week’s Here’s What We Know recap. His online interview on X made headlines for so many reasons including his obvious lisp. According to our well-placed source, Donald recently had some work done to his teeth, including having a partial denture glued in his mouth. He has been having a hard time adjusting to the new apparatus and that’s why he’s been lisping.

CHRIS APPLETON AND GOOD LOOKING NEW BOYFRIEND FEDERICO ARE ALREADY KAPUT

Well that was fast. No sooner did celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton go public with his new hunky beau, Argentinian art dealer Federico Debernardi, than the handsome couple called it quits. Chris paraded Federico around Hollywood during Oscar week, attending some of the celebrity packed parties, but according to an insider they broke up less than two weeks later. There was no drama – the source says that Chris decided he wasn’t ready to enter into a relationship so soon after his disastrous marriage and contentious divorce from actor Lukas Gage.

WE TOLD YA SO!

Once again, we told you so, but didn’t get ANY credit! In last week’s popular new feature, Here’s What We Know, we revealed that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards’ marriage to Maurico Umansky was OVER and that any drama between them was made for TV. Less than a week later, TMZ blasted the SAME story, heralding it as exclusive. (see link below ) They’re correct, it IS exclusive – to THIS website!

CHRIS APPLETON IS A TRUE FRIEND TO KIM KARDASHIAN

Now it can be told! We were the first to reveal that celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton’s marriage to White Lotus star Lukas Gage was headed for splitsville, and now we can share THIS juicy tidbit: My source revealed that Chris and Lukas actually split up months BEFORE they announced their split, but they kept it quiet. And THAT’s because Chris’s biggest client, Kim Kardashian, enticed him to keep the split private until AFTER their Las Vegas elopement episode aired on Kim’s reality show, The Kardashians! An entire episode of Kim’s show was devoted to Chris and Lukas’s surprise wedding – not only was she one of their only guests, but she even flew the couple on her private jet. My source explains that Kim thought it would be better for the ratings if Chris waited to announce the split until after the episode aired – and that’s exactly what he did.

JOE JONAS IS THINKING ABOUT THE GAL THAT GOT AWAY

Now that he’s suddenly back on the market, Joe Jonas is hoping to reconnect with the one who got away. Joe’s last relationship before marrying Sophie Turner was with model Gigi Hadid, but it ended after five months and they both went on to have children with other people. Gigi also happens to be available now, since splitting with her baby daddy, Zayn Malik. Although she’s been seen with Leonardo DiCaprio – that’s more of a casual hookup than a relationship. They say timing is EVERYTHING, so now that they’re both single parents, Joe is testing to waters with mutual pals to see if Gigi MIGHT be interested in rekindling their once hot romance.

WHY DID CHELSEA HANDLER AND JO KOY SPLIT?

Her friends continue to speculate about the REAL reason Chelsea Handler and Jo Koy abruptly ended their once-promising romance. (She was obviously CRAZY about him!) Chelsea revealed on Brooke Shields’ Now What podcast that she and Jo’s decades long friendship seemingly ended along with their romance, hinting something about “accountability.” Chelsea’s been tight-lipped with many of her friends, only revealing that something happened that she just couldn’t accept. Some friends have pieced together that flirty Jo was chatting online with other women and while he thought they were innocent flirtations, Chelsea considered it a form of infidelity. Until Chelsea spills the beans on exactly what caused the split, that’s the most popular theory among some of her friends..

WHAT’S UP WITH KAIA AND PRESLEY GERBER? ANYTHING GOOD?

Last night Kaia Gerber celebrated her 21st birthday with a Hollywood party and her brother Presley (above) attended, but we hardly recognized him. The handsome 23 year old model has lost an enormous amount of weight. You can see it even more clearly in other photos (that I couldn’t afford) taken last night. And he’s trying to cover it up by wearing a heavy jacket on a hot night. His gaunt look wasn’t the only unanswered question of the night. Kaia’s boyfriend Austin Butler was nowhere in sight. In fact, they haven’t been photographed together since July. Was Austin STILL busy promoting his Elvis movie? – or is their romance kaput?

THE WOMAN WHO RUINED ROB KARDASHIAN’S LIFE

Yesterday was a REALLY bad day for Rob Kardashian. Singer Rita Ora and New Zealand Actor/Director Taika Waititi announced that they are engaged. Rob carried a torch for Rita for years- in fact their short-lived romance seemed to change his life. Rob was deliriously happy back in 2012 when he and Rita (only 20 at the time) dated for a few lively months. Rob was very sociable  in those days- appearing on the family TV series and working on his sock business. Rita broke his heart when she dumped him and never looked back. He accused her of cheating with 20 other guys and made it clear he was devastated. After that, he half-heartedly dated a few women, but nothing serious until Blac Chyna snapped him up. He admits his life was a mess and he was vulnerable in those days. Since then he turned into a recluse, and he’s the only Kardashian we never see.

LORI HARVEY AND MICHAEL B JORDAN : BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO

Just when Steve Harvey thought his daughter Lori Harvey had settled down with “a nice guy” Michael B Jordan, things fell apart and the couple split. Steve clearly remembers Lori’s LAST boyfriend Future (he has 8 kids with 8 different women) and he was happy and relieved when she took up with Black Panther star Michael, who has never had a playboy reputation. Instagram model Lori, 25, and Micheal, 34, seemed to be dizzily in love for almost a year and a half- they were the perfect couple. For the past 6 months Lori has been dieting (1200 calories a day) and working out and she has lost over fifteen pounds. She has never looked better. All signs are pointing to the fact that Lori is the one who called the romance off – was he pushing for marriage too soon? No one knows. Both claim to be heartbroken, but one is certainly MORE heartbroken than the other…

MADONNA: NEW FACE, NEW BOYFRIEND

While we were obsessing over The Slap and Johnny Depp’s courtroom drama, Madonna, 63, was quietly breaking up with her boyfriend of four years, dancer Ahlamalik Williams, 28. They first met during her Rebel Heart tour in 2015 and got together in 2018. He has been conspicuously absent from her social media for the past few months. She recently posted a vague commentary about Karma mentioning “when somebody in your life is not right for you…” Apparently their isolation during the pandemic did NOT bring them closer together. Williams has packed up his stuff and moved out of her New York home.
