CAN LARRY DAVID SAVE CHERYL HINES’ MARRIAGE?

As Cheryl Hines’ marriage to RFK, Jr. hangs by a thread, the Curb Your Enthusiasm actress has turned to her TV husband, Larry David, for advice. As we previously reported, Cheryl was DISGUSTED when her husband ended his long-shot presidential campaign and endorsed Donald Trump. Aside from a benign statement on social media, Cheryl is figuring out what she needs to do to save her reputation and her career, and of course quick thinking Larry had the perfect answer. According to my source, Larry instructed Cheryl to IMMEDIATELY endorse Kamala Harris for President, to let the world know her husband’s views are not HERS. Cheryl is mulling over Larry’s brilliant idea (remember Larry had already endorsed Kamala) and my source predicts Cheryl is likely to do it.

WE TOLD YA SO!

Well, it only took them two days, but TMZ all but confirmed our scoop this Friday about trouble in paradise for RFK Jr.,and Cheryl Hines once he endorsed Donald Trump for president. TMZ just reported basically the same thing, please see the link below. Here is an updated scoop on the subject. Cheryl is so far refusing to appear alongside her husband at any Trump rally, and according to at least one source, she’s now weighing her options if she decides to end the marriage. Endorsing Trump was the straw that broke the camel’s back for Cheryl. As my source puts it, Cheryl married an oddball liberal (she disagreed with his vaccine stance, but was able to stomach it) but now that he’s a MAGA nut job who is worming his way into a desired Trump cabinet position, she might just be ready to pull the plug on the marriage.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

By the time you read this, Robert F Kennedy Jr. may have already ended his laughable presidential campaign and endorsed Donald Trump. However, we heard that it just might be too much for his wife, actress Cheryl Hines. While Cheryl stood by her man during his never gonna win campaign, she isn’t a fan of Trump and realizes her standing in Hollywood will be jeopardized if her husband endorses him. According to my source, there’s only so much Cheryl can stomach, and she’s been pleading with her husband NOT to endorse Trump. If he does though, my source predicts their marriage will suffer.

Jennifer Lopez made the news with her surprise filing for divorce, catching Ben Affleck and the rest of the world off guard. Their marriage is now seemingly kaput, but Jennifer still plans on buying a house with enough bedrooms for her twins and Ben’s three kids. The children have formed quite the bond with one insider is comparing it to the Brady Bunch. We hear that Jen intends to keep that family unit together even once she’s officially divorced from Ben.

Speaking of Jennifer Lopez, we also heard that IF the marital house that she shared with Ben Affleck sells before she buys a new place, she has an open invitation to stay with Ben’s other ex-wife, Jennifer Garner! The Jens became friends over the past few years (we can only IMAGINE them gossiping about how challenging it was to be married to Ben) and as we all now know their kids are all very close. Jen G. has more than enough room for J.Lo and the twins so don’t be surprised if they wind up as temporary roomies.

Of course the biggest news was the Democratic National Convention, with Vice President Kamala Harris accepting her party’s nomination for President! (We couldn’t be more DELIGHTED at the prospect of her in the White House), but politics aside, we just heard that while she didn’t endorse her at the convention, Taylor Swift is gearing up for a big splashy endorsement video and social media blitz. Taylor and her handlers were livid that Donald Trump posted something on his faltering truth social that claimed Taylor had endorsed him. The AI generated post was the final straw for Taylor and now she’s getting ready to go big for Kamala.

Finally, President Joe Biden was the hero who saved democracy by abandoning his campaign and handing the reigns over to Kamala. Biden hightailed it out of the DNC hours after his riveting speech, and headed to Montecito, California for a vacation. We heard though that it wasn’t all rest and relaxation. Loyal readers will remember WE TOLD YA that Biden planned on relocating to California once his Presidency was over, and during his time in Montecito he privately toured a few available homes. According to our source, a Democratic billionaire donor is planning to buy the property and let Biden and Jill have the exclusive rights to it until they both pass away.

DUNKIN’ DONUTS MOURNS THE SPLIT OF BEN AND JEN

Casualties are common in divorces and Jennifer Lopez’s split from Ben Affleck is no different. Although Jen and Ben have vowed to keep it friendly specifically for the sake of their kids (who have formed bonds) the unexpected victim in this divorce is Dunkin Donuts! Ben and Jen’s 2024 Super Bowl commercial for the donut chain was a HUGE success and the company quickly green-lit a follow up spot for the 2025 game. Keep in mind, these commercials can be complicated productions and filmed months and months in advance. The then happily married couple were set to make MILLIONS for another 60-second spot but the plans were scrapped days after J.Lo officially filed for divorced. My source says the Dunkin executives were closely following the state of the marriage and were rooting for a reconciliation since they had big plans for the follow up ad campaign and marketing blitz. Now they’re not even sure if they want to proceed with Ben alone, since it just seems depressing to some of them.

STEVE KERR: NEXT GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA?

We rarely gossip about professional athletes or coaches, but this item also has political importance and is TOO good not to share. Steve Kerr, the coach of basketball’s Golden State Warriors as well as the Olympic’s Team USA, was a surprise -and excellent- speaker at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on August 19. According to my inside source there was a reason – he’s being wooed to run for Governor of California when current governor, Gavin Newsom is termed out. Remember where you read this, as an exploratory committee is already in place, grooming Steve to run for governor, which is EXACTLY why he was tapped to speak at the convention.

KUMAIL NANJIANI: THIS IS MY HOUSE

GQ magazine sent comic Kumail Nanjiani to the front door of my house with a camera following him (he’d never been here) and asked him to show the house as if it were his and add lib an impromptu tour of the place. His reaction to the decor is quite funny…

DONALD TRUMP STAFFERS REALLY MISS EX-WIFE IVANA

How LOONY is Donald Trump? He recently called Vice President Kamala Harris beautiful (even comparing her to his former model wife, Melania ) and less than a week later, fired up one of his MAGA rallies by proclaiming HE’S better looking than she is. According to our political insider (who seems to be spot on about almost everything) the Trump campaign is trying to rein Donald in from making such juvenile remarks. Problem is, they’re having a hard time because there’s no one he will listen to now that his ex-wife, Ivana is deceased. As my source reveals, when Donald would go off on wild tangents, a staffer would reach out to Ivana and persuade her to speak with Donald. (Despite their divorce he respected her opinion and actually would heed her advice!) Now that she’s gone, the staffers don’t know WHO to call to talk some sense into him.

TOM CRUISE TAKES HIS SISTER FOR A RIDE

Tom Cruise and his lookalike sister Marion arrived in the UK by helicopter at the same time as his daughter Suri was getting acclimated to dorm life as a freshman and Carnegie Mellon University in Philadelphia. Marion, also a dedicated Scientologist, appears to lead a normal life as a successful realtor in Florida. We’re betting that she has many of the same Scientology celebrity “perks” that Tom has – since he is the “leader of the pack.”

ELLEN DEGENERES AND MEGHAN MARKLE?

Ellen DeGeneres is desperate to reinvent herself after getting canceled by Hollywood for being mean, and now she’s turned to none other than her Montecito, California neighbor Meghan Markle for help! Meghan recently launched her lifestyle brand, American Riviera, where she plans on selling locally produced products like her jam. Ellen and her wife Portia de Rossi are both devout vegans, have been secretly working on a line of animal free products (like banana bread.) Now Ellen wants Meghan to market them on her website. According to my source, it’s a real Sophie‘s Choice moment for Meghan. She has a lot riding on making this venture a success, and while she considers Ellen a friend, she’s not sure she wants to be in business with her, as she fears it could cause a lot of negative publicity and backlash.

WE TOLD YA SO!

We recently revealed that a desperate Donald Trump was looking for angles to get more African-American support, even reaching out to certified lunatic Kanye West. Trump and Kanye have a complicated relationship – who can forget Kanye‘s ill fated campaign for president against Trump? Just as we reported, Trump and Kanye have now joined forces. Kanye recently made an unplanned appearance at a pop-up Trump rally in Beverly Hills. See link below. According to our well placed source, expect to see more of Kanye on Trump‘s campaign trail. Although, we’re not sure if this is going to bring in any voters since Kayne’s popularity and credibility are both diminished.
