HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The biggest and saddest story of the week was the untimely death of former child star Hayden Pantierre from a suspected drug overdose.  Here’s what we know.  Some members from Hayden’s inner circle suspect there’s more to her death than an “accidental overdose” and have quietly started pooling their resources with plans to hire a private investigator to dig deeper into Hayden’s passing – and her tumultuous relationship with her on-again off-again  boyfriend Brian Hickerson.  My source says that some people feel there’s foul play involved and they are determined to honor Hayden by uncovering what exactly caused her death.

 

Another bombshell of the week was the news that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were hightailing it out of California and moving back to Britain.  We can tell you this.  As we previously reported, Meg and Harry went from being the toast of the town to not so popular and even their neighbor Oprah Winfrey started pulling away.  For now, the  former Royals have agreed to spend just one year there , and are keeping their Montecito, California estate as a backup plan  – in case life across the pond doesn’t work out for them.  They will reevaluate where they want to live after their kids finish one year of schooling in London.

 

Sandra Bullock made headlines after breaking her silence on a podcast about the death of her partner, Bryan Randall.  Sandra revealed that Bryan insisted she keep his ALS diagnosis a secret from all but a very select handful of people ,  including Jennifer Aniston.  Here’s what we know.  This was only step one of Sandy’s ALS plan, as she intends to become far more active in raising funds to find a cure.  My source says Sandra has some regret she didn’t speak out sooner , and is now determined to make up for lost time and use her star power to raise both awareness and donations.

 

Shia LeBeouf was in the news when it was revealed that despite some very public missteps , he’s still drinking – almost every day!  Shia made the revelation in court documents related to his criminal case in New Orleans.  We can tell you this.  While Shia doesn’t think he has a drinking problem, he now has a bodyguard accompanying him during his drinking sessions.  He still wants to have fun , but feels having some muscle by his side helps him avoid getting into bar fights.

 

Million Dollar Listing reality star Tracy Tutor made news when it was announced she’s joining the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.  Here’s what we know.  Tracy prepared for the show in the most Beverly Hills way possible, by getting a $250,000 facelift from a top 90210 plastic surgeon.  My source says that Tracy’s new face will be part of her storyline , and she even documented the surgery and recovery with numerous photographs to be shown on RHOBH.  (Were guessing the surgeon gave her a big discount in exchange for the publicity.)

 

Dakota Johnson was talked about when it was revealed she and her boyfriend Role Model had split up.  We can tell you this.  Behind very closed doors, Dakota has been talking to her former longtime boyfriend, musician Chris Martin.  A source close to the former couple predicts a reconciliation – and get this – a potential engagement is a very strong possibility!  The insider wouldn’t be surprised if they’re back together and even engaged before the upcoming winter holidays.

 

No surprise that Donald Trump made headlines,  but this time it was for something he DIDN’T say or do.  Donald was an item of discussion over his closeness to his executive assistant, Natalie Harp.  As more and more stories come out about just how involved they are, here’s what we know.  The working relationship isn’t sitting well with Donald’s wife, Melania Trump.  My source says she told Donald that while she’s glad he has a devoted assistant,  she doesn’t like the optics.  She also warned him that if anything inappropriate were to ever happen, she would make him pay a huge price.  Long story short, she told him not to embarrass her.

    Sure seems like newborn mom Karoline was pissed that her life was placed at risk on the decoy plane while Natalie was granted an safe exit with DJT in the catering truck. Of course she was able to secure a new position that won’t involve dangerous travel, so it sure seems to have been a factor in her sudden resignation.

  2. Doc Hollywood

    Allegedly Dakota Fanning is a kinky sadist, and Chris Martin loves to be a masochist receiving pain from her. Sounds like a match made in Hollywood.

      You mean Dakota Johnson

    “Prince Harry and other high-profile claimants must ‌make an interim payment of £9.54 million ($17.9 million Cdn) toward the legal costs ​of the Daily ​Mail’s publisher after losing their privacy lawsuits, London’s ​High Court ruled on ⁠Friday.”

    Melania isn’t embarrassed yet?

    1. GnarlyG

      Lol. It’s all about $$$ and power.

  5. Hollywood Conspiacy expert

    According to the dark-net Shia LeBeouf is the illegitimate son of Spielberg which is why he keeps getting bailed out of Jail and and still gets hired in Hollywood

    Most people are now convinced Chris Martin is a homosexual. Not that there’s anything wrong with it. Except for the Bearding. and fake girlfriends. Many male celebrities do this like Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Seacrest, Ryan Reynolds and Kenney Chesny.
