Prince Harry

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry spent Valentine’s Day apart, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t celebrate. I just heard that among other tokens of his affection, Harry gave Meghan a remake of the black sheep sweater his mom Princess Diana wore and made famous. The sweater was recently reissued by Warm and Wonderful and quickly sold out, but Harry found one at an online reseller.

The biggest story of the week was the Kansas City Chief’s devastating and one-sided loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in last Sunday’s Super Bowl. While the game was big news, the bigger news happened right after the final play, when KC gave their star player, Travis Kelce, a deadline to decide whether or not he wants to continue playing or retire. Here’s what we know. Travis’ better half, Taylor Swift is urging him to hang up his helmet and begin the next chapter of their lives including starting a family and focusing on his much desired Hollywood career. (JCH readers already know he has a modeling job)  Travis hasn’t made up his mind yet, but my source says he’s leaning towards taking Taylor’s advice.

Speaking of the Super Bowl, the other big news was Kendrick Lamar’s statement-filled halftime show. Kendrick made numerous obvious and subtle references to his feud with Drake and we are hearing that a well connected group of their mutual pals recently had a conference call to brainstorm how to mend the fences between the two rappers and end the feud. Apparently they feel the bad blood is bad for business, and they’re hoping to broke a peace deal -with one possible scenario involving a duet between the two feuding rappers. The thinking behind it is that the proposed song would rake in millions and -lets face it- money can solve some problems.

Another week, another barrage of Diddy lawsuits from both men and women who are claiming they were sexually assaulted by the incarcerated rapper. If that wasn’t enough for Diddy to worry about, we are hearing that he’s quickly aged behind bars since he’s unable to access his high priced anti-aging treatments. My source says that although he’s been locked up for less than a year, he already looks 10 years older! Diddy is trying to get permission to get Botox and other procedures done while he’s awaiting trial, and since he’s not yet convicted, but only charged, his legal team feels a judge might grant his wish. Long story short, Diddy knows he’s going to trial and he wants to look his best.

Former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, Teddi Mellencamp made news when she announced on social media she underwent surgery for multiple brain tumors. While it’s probably the last think she’s focused on, we just heard that Andy Cohen wants to brighten her spirits by having her back on the popular series next season as a friend of the Housewives.

Kayne West made headlines for all of the wrong reasons – including going on a racist rant, spending $8 million on a Super Bowl ad to sell T-shirts with swastikas, and getting dumped by his wife Bianca Censori. We know this. The few celebrity friends Kanye has left have been reaching out to none other than his former mother-in-law, Kris Jenner, to get her to help. First of all, Kris has access to very rich and powerful people, like Jeff Bezos. Second, Kayne is the father to 4 of her grandchildren and third, when he’s sane, Kayne seems to have a bond with Kris. While Kris is worried about her former son-in law, she isn’t sure she wants to get involved in his issues, but she has agreed to think it over.

Happy Valentine’s Day to You!

 

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Understandably, the Los Angeles fires continue to be the biggest story out of Hollywood this week. We just heard this interesting tidbit. The popular online resale site, The Real Real is being overwhelmed with requests from consignors who lost everything in the fires requesting their things back. The site is popular with the wealthy and celebrities and Melissa Rivers is one of their clients who is requesting to have her items returned. My source says the company is overwhelmed with requests from the fire victims since a large percentage of those affected use the site to sell their used clothing.

Carrie Underwood made headlines when it was announced she would be the headliner at Donald Trump’s upcoming inauguration. Carrie, who previously kept her political beliefs close to her vest, didn’t come out and endorse Trump, but she did explain that her reason for performing is to hopefully bring the country together. We just heard that Carrie was by far the first choice of the inaugural committee, but other bigger stars refused to participate. Not only that, but the celebrity guest list of those agreeing to attend is shaping up to be a who’s who of has-beens.

Justin Baldoni made the news once again for suing Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds for $400 million for defamation of character and extortion. We know this. Odds are, this case and Blake’s previously filed case against Justin will never see the light of day inside of a courtroom. These competing lawsuits, stemming from their movie, This Ends with Us, is the LAST thing the studios involved in the production and release (Columbia and Sony) want, so behind closed doors negotiations are beginning. We heard a deal is being floated to have both parties drop their suits and Blake and Justin will walk away with guaranteed movie deals. My source adds that the studios will likely be the ones who put all of this to rest.

Kate Middleton made headlines when she visited the hospital where she received treatment and announced she was in remission. We just heard that the popular Royal is gearing up for her first major TV interview where she will disclose her exact illness and talk about her treatment, prognosis and more. The BBC is finalizing plans to secure the interview with a HUGE donation to Kate’s favorite charities.

Speaking of Royals, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were in the news for visiting the ravished LA areas destroyed by the wildfires. Some people (including blast from the past) Justine Bateman blasted the duo’s visit as nothing more than a photo-op. We just heard that Harry and Meg are also spearheading a fundraiser at their Montecito, California estate with plans to charge attendees $100,000 each for the chance to meet and mingle. The event is being planned now, and already there’s interest among some high moneyed neighbors who have yet to befriend the royals. Meg and Harry are picking up the tab for the staff and catering with 100% of the proceeds going to the fire victims.

Finally, another blast from the past, Sally Struthers, made headlines for going on a podcast and dishing the dirt on Betty White and Norman Lear. Sally took a lot of flak for speaking ill of the dead since they can’t defend themselves, but we just heard the entire thing was to test the waters and see if the public was still interested in what Sally had to say. Apparently they are, so now Sally is shopping around a book deal for her autobiography where she will drop many more secrets about her decades in Hollywood.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made headlines when a NY tabloid speculated on the state of their marriage since they haven’t been accompanying each other while on various trips. Here’s what we know. Aside from typical marital issues there’s no trouble in paradise. As Meg and Harry settle into their marriage they’re at that stage where they’re comfortable spending time apart, especially when it involves business trips and ventures. My well placed source says all is fine and that the couple is actually trying to expand their family.

Paris Hilton made the news when she shared an iconic paparazzi photo from 18 years ago of her, Britney Spears, and Lindsay Lohan, leaving the Beverly Hills Hotel. It was iconic because at the time Paris was the world’s biggest reality star (and one of the first) Britney the biggest popstar, and Lindsay the biggest movie star of her generation. Don’t think for a second that this was some random social media post – conniving Paris has a plan. She’s eager to reclaim the level of fame she enjoyed 2 decades ago and is negotiating to team up with Britney and Lindsay for a movie about -what else- 3 former teen stars who reunite 20 years later. Paris has a team working on the rom-com script and my source says Netflix is interested.

Oliver Hudson was a topic of conversation this week after revealing Kurt Russell offered to adopt him and his sister Kate (Kurt is the longtime companion of their mom Goldie Hawn). What he didn’t reveal, though, was after all these years, Goldie and Kurt might actually be MARRIED. The former couple applied for a PRIVATE marriage license (available in California for an additional fee -this means there’s no public record of the marriage and it’s all kept private- they’re extremely popular with celebrities and the upper class for privacy reasons). My source says that Goldie has dropped a few hints but has yet to confirm if she and Kurt went through with it or just applied for the license.

Reality fans will either rejoice or be sad that Bravo announced the entire cast of Vanderpump Rules was getting replaced except for Lisa Vanderpump. Loyal readers will remember we reported some rumblings about this months ago. Here’s what we know. The show is eventually being retooled to have all of the action take place in Las Vegas where Lisa is spearheading some new ventures. The new season will start at her restaurant Sur in West Hollywood with a new cast, but quickly spread to Sin City, where Andy Cohen and the folks at Bravo are eventually planning to expand their Real Housewives franchise with Lisa starring in at least the first season.

Sean Diddy Combs made the news when he was denied bail for the third time, but don’t think for a moment the disgraced rapper is giving up. We just heard that Diddy is planning to either REPLACE his entire legal team or at the very least beef it up with some new players. Get this… he’s hoping to poach some of Donald Trump’s former criminal attorneys! My source says Sean can’t believe he’s still locked up and denied bail, so he’s willing to spend WHATEVER it takes on the best legal eagles to get him sprung from the pokey on bail until his upcoming May 2025 trial.

And finally, Vice President Kamala Harris made the news for taking some time off and visiting Hawaii for Thanksgiving (a well deserved vacation in our opinion). Here’s the latest on Kamala. Once she’s done with Washington, DC her FIRST interview will be with her buddy Oprah Winfrey where she will discuss her thoughts on her last minute presidential campaign. Her next professional step will be hosting a podcast as she decides whether to continue to pursue a career in politics or focus on the private sector.

Happy Thanksgiving readers! We are thankful for the opportunity to bring you the best Hollywood gossip. We will continue to dish it out if you continue to keep gobbling it up….and remember to SHARE!

PRINCES HAVE PROBLEMS TOO!

Prince Andrew is financially struggling and he’s turning to his nephew, Prince Harry, for help! Ever since his mother Queen Elizabeth passed away, Andrew has been all but cut off from the family funds. His brother, King Charles, told him he needs to move out of the Royal Lodge if he can’t pay the $500,000 a year in upkeep charges. Andrew’s daughters are very close to their cousin Harry, so that’s why he felt comfortable enough asking him for some financial help. Since Harry is also on the outs with the Royals, he has some sympathy for Andrew, so my source says he’s likely to help him out.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Dear Readers,
We’re doing our best not to deprive you of the best Hollywood gossip, but just like some of the celebrities you read about here, our website is still acting up!  For the time being we are forced to post items without photos, but rest assured we’re working diligently to resolve this and those loading issues. We appreciate your patience and understanding.  Please stick with us.!

 

Surprise! surprise! another week and another Donald Trump update. The disgraced former president in a criminal trial in New York City made headlines again for violating a gag order with his unhinged outburst outside of the courthouse and on social media. I am hearing that his attorneys are encouraging him to avoid his beloved Diet Coke during the trial because the extra caffeine tends to agitate him. He’s being encouraged to drink non-caffeinated herbal tea instead – which might explain why he apparently keeps falling asleep during the proceedings.

Prince Harry made headlines this week, not for something he did but for something he didn’t do – visit England and NOT see his father, King Charles, or his brother Prince William.  We’re hearing that although Harry didn’t get a chance to see his dad and brother, he sent them both food baskets from Harvey Nichols, an upscale store in London. The baskets contained some of the royal family‘s favorite jams and jellies which are exclusive to the store. My source says Harry was devastated that his family didn’t see him, so he sent the baskets as an olive branch.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard made headlines as during her trip to LA for a cute TikTok video, where she was shocked at the prices at Erewhon, and upscale grocery store chain. Gypsy was in town to promote her show with Lifetime, but we’re hearing that she fell in love with Hollywood, and she’s trying to move here if she can get her probation figured out. My source says she’s hoping to continue working in the entertainment industry, perhaps hosting a talk show.

Real Housewife of New Jersey Teresa Giudice ran into Taylor Swift at Coachella a few weeks back, and their selfie is still making headlines. What ISN’T making headlines though is what we are hearing. After the infamous selfie, Teresa reached out to Taylor with a DM on Instagram, and all but begged her to make even the briefest appearance on the popular Housewives reality show. While it’s a long-shot, we are hearing Taylor, while not a loyal fan, might consider it just for the shock value!

Finally, the Met Gala was one of the biggest stories of last week, and the general consensus was that this year was a bore-fest.  A shortage of truly creative outfits and  we were appalled by the guests BRAGGING about how MUCH money and HOURS of work were spent (wasted?) on frivolous dresses to be worn for that ONE event. Here’s one interesting tidbit we heard and wanted to share: Kim Kardashian had a bad hair day and she had no one to blame but herself. Despite her hairdresser telling her NOT to, Kim INSISTED on going platinum blonde for the Gala but her hair turned out over- processed and riddled with flyaways and split ends. Kim was unhappy with her less than perfect appearance, but she realized it was HER fault and told her friends next time she’ll listen to her hairstylist Chris Appleton.

MEGHAN MARKLE IS INSPIRED BY GWYNETH PALTROW

We previously reported that Meghan Markle was launching her own oddly named brand, American Riviera Orchard, to sell products online that capture the essence of her new hometown of Montecito. Although Meghan has quickly adapted to the Montecito lifestyle since relocating there with her husband Prince Harry, she wasn’t born and raised in the ritzy oceanfront community. She grew up in the working class L.A. suburb of Canoga Park. However, Meghan isn’t content with just an online presence – our source says she’s working with a commercial realtor in the area to open a brick and mortar store. Meghan feels having an actual store (or a few) will strengthen her brand. She got the idea from Gwyneth Paltrow, whose successful online brand, Goop, has several stores, including one in Montecito. Meghan is looking to open her store in the EXACT same area where the Goop store is located.

ANOTHER WE TOLD YA SO!

Apparently, TMZ isn’t the only website to claim their scoops as ours… People magazine just did it too! (See link below) On March 18th, we were the first to reveal that Prince Harry is totally in the dark about his sister-in-law Kate Middleton‘s medical condition. Today, People ran with that exact story as their own! We hate to brag, but this is two “We told you so’s” in one day. Please spread the word to your friends to check out our website if they want the best and most accurate gossip from around the world!

DON’T ASK PRINCE HARRY ABOUT ROYAL HEALTH PROBLEMS

For those of you hoping the Royal Family rift would end anytime soon, dream on. According to our well placed source, Prince Harry had to sign an ironclad NDA before he was filled in on the details of what’s really going on with his father, King Charles’s health. The Palace has been somewhat vague in releasing specifics on Charles’ condition and treatment. That’s only the tip of the iceberg. Harry is also being kept in the dark on what’s going on with his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton’s recent health crisis and surgery. Apparently the Royals fear Harry has loose lips so they’re keeping details from him. Perhaps he should visit this website if he wants the latest scoops on the Royal Family!

DONALD TRUMP HAS PLANS FOR PRINCE HARRY

The world’s biggest grudge holder, former President (and accused criminal) Donald Trump made headlines this week for suggesting in an interview with a UK paper that he might DEPORT Prince Harry if he’s re-elected! Well it’s obvious that Donald doesn’t read THIS website! Otherwise he would have known what we told you back in August of 2023 – that Harry has already started the long process of becoming a US citizen. Royal or not, acquiring citizenship takes time, and our source updates us that Harry is about one-third finished. Since citizens can’t be deported, Donald will be out of luck trying to deport him.

PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MIGHT POP UP AT THE OSCARS

Will they or won’t they? That’s the question Hollywood insiders are asking themselves now that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are secretly being wooed to become presenters at the upcoming Academy Awards! Now that they’ve gone Hollywood, the former royal couple have been offered a chance to present an Oscar at the upcoming ceremony. The invite is being kept a secret since they haven’t agreed to appear, but our knowledgable source reveals it could very well happen since the pair are already planning to attend the coveted after parties, including the ones hosted by Vanity Fair and Netflix. The details are still being sorted out, but if they agree the plan is for them to present either the award for best foreign film or best documentary.
