Justin Baldoni and his legal team are asking Marvel and Disney to “preserve evidence” relevant to anticipated claims against Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively and other parties.

According to a litigation hold letter obtained by Us Weekly on Tuesday, July 14, The Walt Disney Company’s Bob Iger and Marvel Studio’s Kevin Feige received a request from Baldoni’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, to “preserve all existing documents and data relevant to the Anticipated Claims.”

This information includes, but is not limited to, any and all documents and communications involving Reynolds’ conduct in connection with any film in the Deadpool franchise.

It also includes any and all documents “relating to or reflecting a deliberate attempt to mock, harass, ridicule, intimate or bully Baldoni through the character of ‘Nicepool.’”

“It is important that Marvel take every reasonable step to preserve this information until further notice,” Freedman wrote.

The move comes as Baldoni, 40, finds himself in a legal battle with Lively, 37, who costarred alongside the director in the 2024 Sony movie It Ends With Us.

While It Ends With Us is not affiliated with Disney, Baldoni’s attorney previously alleged that Reynolds, 48, may have mocked Baldoni in Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine, which was released by Disney in July.

According to Freedman, Reynolds’ character ‘Nicepool’ — who is a man bun-sporting version of Deadpool — says such lines as, “Where in God’s name is the intimacy coordinator?!” and compliments Ladypool (voiced by Lively) for “snapping back” into shape after giving birth.

When Deadpool points out Nicepool’s misogyny in the scene, the latter replies, “It’s OK, I identify as a feminist.” (Baldoni has previously sported a man bun and has been vocal about his avid feminism. In December 2024, Baldoni received a Voices of Solidarity Award from Vital Voices for his support of women. The reward was rescinded days later amid allegations of sexual harassment.)

Us has reached out to Baldoni’s team, Marvel, Disney and an attorney for Lively and Reynolds for comment.

In December 2024, Lively sued Baldoni for sexual harassment. The lawsuit alleged that there was a meeting conducted to address Lively’s claims that there was a “hostile work environment” on the set of It Ends With Us.

She also accused the actor of allegedly launching a “social manipulation” campaign against her to “destroy” her reputation.

Every Counterclaim Made in Justin Baldoni’s New York Times Lawsuit

Baldoni’s lawyer called Lively’s accusations “completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious” in a statement to Us, claiming that Lively filed the lawsuit to allegedly “fix her negative reputation” and “rehash a narrative” about the movie’s production.

Baldoni also responded with his own lawsuit, where he was listed as one of 10 plaintiffs suing The New York Times for $250 million after its reporting on Lively’s legal filing. Baldoni’s lawsuit alleged that Lively pursued a “strategic and manipulative” smear campaign against him and that the Times “cherry picked” communications while leaving out key details in their reporting.

A spokesperson for The New York Times said that the publication is standing by the story and plans to “vigorously defend against the lawsuit.”

Sunny Hostin’s husband, Emmanuel “Manny” Hostin, made headlines after he was named in an insurance fraud lawsuit.

According to legal documents viewed by Us Weekly on January 7, 2025, Emmanuel is one of almost 200 defendants included in a lawsuit filed with the New York Eastern District Court.

The orthopedic surgeon, based in New York, is accused of federal insurance fraud and “getting kickbacks by performing surgery and … billing a company that insured taxi companies and Uber and Lyft drivers,” as reported by the Daily Mail.

Emmanuel’s attorney has denied all the allegations on behalf of his client.

In addition, Sunny has defended her husband and claims that the plaintiff, American Transit, an insurance group that primarily works with ride-share drivers, has “a history of filing frivolous claims.”

Keep reading for an overview of the ongoing case:

Who Is Dr. Emmanuel ‘Manny’ Hostin?

Emmanuel is an orthopedic surgeon based out of New York City with nearly 29 years of experience. He graduated from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in 1996 and is the owner of Hostin Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, a practice the surgeon established in Manhattan in 2006.

Married to Sunny since 1998, the couple share son Gabriel, a student at Harvard University, and daughter Paloma, a student at Cornell University.

What Is Dr. Emmanuel Hostin Being Accused of?

According to the lawsuit viewed by Us, Emmanuel is accused of allegedly and “knowingly” providing “fraudulent medical and other healthcare services including arthroscopic surgeries to Covered Persons through Hostin Orthopaedics.” The surgeon is also accused of fraudulently billing American Transit for the costs.

Emmanuel allegedly perpetrated this fraud “in exchange for kickbacks and/or other compensation which were disguised as dividends or other cash distributions.” He denies the allegations.

What Has Dr. Emmanual Hostin Said About the Lawsuit?

Emmanuel addressed the allegations via his attorney, Daniel John Thwaites, who told the Daily Mail that his client “denies each and every allegation.”

Thwaites added that the lawsuit is a “blanket, scattershot, meritless lawsuit by a near-bankrupt insurance carrier.”

“It is meant to intimidate and harass doctors from collecting for care given to American Transit insureds and their passengers,” Thwaites continued. “American Transit has rushed into the lawsuit without ever conducting an examination of Dr. Hostin or expressing any concerns to his lawyers. The real story here is about an insurance carrier abusing the legal system to limit and restrict health care benefits to its insureds and their passengers, and write off its proper obligations.”

What Has Sunny Hostin Said About the Lawsuit? 

In a statement to Entertainment Weekly, Sunny slammed the “frivolous civil lawsuit” against her husband and approximately 200 other doctors.

“In an attempt to poison the well of public opinion because it does not have a valid case against my husband, American Transit instead used my celebrity status to start a disgusting media smear campaign against my husband, which included me and our children,” she said. “They plastered pictures of our family all over tabloid publications.

'The View' Cohosts Through the Years and Why They Left

American Transit is harassing me and my family in a frantic attempt to not pay its bills. Our family will not be intimidated and harassed. We remain unbowed.”

Hostin confirmed she retained Mark Geragos as her attorney and has “put American Transit on notice and will file a $5 million counter lawsuit for their defamatory claims, an amount that is likely to increase as the reputational damage that American Transit has intentionally caused is difficult to quantify at this time.”

“Further, we demand that they withdraw these false allegations, pay my husband what he is owed and issue a public apology,” Sunny continued. “Insurance companies like American Transit make an already broken healthcare system nearly impossible for Americans to navigate and get good healthcare by engaging in despicable tactics like harassing doctors. Let me be clear, where I come from, American Transit will receive a PHD from FAFO University.”

Hugh Jackman’s estranged wife Deborra-Lee Furness appears to be focused on family as she continues navigating a new chapter of her life.

Nearly a week after the Tony-winning actor debuted his new relationship with Sutton Foster, Furness, 69, decided to enjoy a day at the Australian Open with her and Jackman’s 19-year-old daughter, Ava.

Jackman, 56, and Furness announced their split in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage. At the time, the couple — who also share 23-year-old son Oscar — asked for privacy as their family “navigates this transition.”

“We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,” the pair said in a joint statement. “Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.”

Sources exclusively told Us Weekly in November 2024 that a romance between Jackman and Foster, 49, sparked while the twosome started working together on the Broadway production of The Music Man the year prior.

The pair didn’t confirm their romance, however, until earlier this month, when they were photographed holding hands after enjoying a dinner date in Santa Monica, California on January 6.

Days later, the PDA continued when the couple was photographed in a car while in the drive-thru at a local In-N-Out burger location.

Sutton Foster and Hugh Jackman’s Relationship Timeline

According to the Daily Mail, the pair shared several kisses as they sat in the front seat of the vehicle. Jackman was on the driver’s side while Foster sat in the passenger’s seat.

“They’re happier than ever,” a source told Us Weekly in November 2024 before shining a light on what the pair admires about each other.

According to the insider, Jackman adores Foster’s “immense talent, infectious positivity and grounded nature” as she continues her West Coast run of Once Upon a Mattress. As for Foster, she is drawn to her new beau’s “kindness, professionalism and ability to make others feel valued.”

90 Day Fiancé is full of surprises and season 11 promises to be no different.

On Tuesday, January 14, TLC shared the first trailer for a history-making season that will include the franchise’s first-ever throuple.

“I love being married to Matt,” Amani — who identifies as bisexual — says in a sneak preview. “I love being a mom, but we have a third in our relationship.”

After falling in love with Any — a single mother and exotic dancer from Tijuana, Mexico — the couple is faced with the challenge of figuring out their next steps.

“Fiancé visa, how does that work when you guys are already married?” someone asks in the trailer. Matt replies, “We were thinking about separating.”

Before changing their relationship status, however, Matt and Amani will travel to Mexico to spend quality time with Any’s family and friends to confirm they are making the right decision.

While Matt, Amani and Any are new to the franchise — along with three other couples — season 11 of 90 Day Fiancé will also feature a few familiar faces.

90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way stars Shekinah and Sarper are back together in Los Angeles. Before things get very serious, however, Sarper must win the approval of Shekinah’s family, including her daughter, Sofie.

Season 11 will also feature two couples from 90 Day Fiancé: Love in Paradise, including Shawn and Alliya, who continue to struggle with their 30-year age gap. In addition, Shawn has kept much of his relationship with Alliya a secret from his friends and family.

Jessica’s doubts about Juan’s ability to embrace a major role shift — from a carefree cruise ship bartender to full-time dad — causes some emotional moments for the couple, all captured by TLC cameras.

Yvette Nicole Brown is not impressed with Khloe Kardashian.

The actress called out the reality star for her excessive water use after Kardashian, 40, slammed Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass’ response to the ongoing wildfires destroying Los Angeles neighborhoods.

“This is from 2022 when Los Angeles was in the midst of a drought,” Brown, 53, wrote via Instagram on Monday, January 13. “Every citizen was asked to conserve for the good of everyone else. Y’know because of fires? This is how some citizens responded to the ask. Is THIS a joke @khloekardashian?”

The Community star also shared a screenshot of a Rolling Stone article with a headline that read: “Kardashians Among L.A.’s Worst Water Wasters.”

Khloe Kardashian, Sophia Bush Condemn Arson Suspects During L.A. Wildfire

The publication, which cited public data obtained by the Los Angeles Times, said Kardashian’s Calabasas home used roughly 101,000 gallons of water over the allotted limit in one month. (The Kardashians never publicly commented on the report.)

Brown’s comments come after Kardashian expressed her support for Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Kristin M. Crowley after watching a recent interview in which she discussed the department’s budget.

“We are screaming to be properly funded, to make sure that our firefighters can do their jobs so that we can serve the community that we took an oath,” Crowley told KTTV.

In response to the interview, Kardashian said she stood by Chief Crowley.

“You spoke the truth and you had tears in your eyes because I can tell you didn’t even want to say that but it was THE TRUTH!!!!!” she wrote via her Instagram Story on Friday, January 10. “Thank you for being honest @LosAngelesFireDepartment Chief Crowley. Mayor Bass you are a joke!!!!”

Us has reached out to Kardashian’s rep for comment.

During a press conference on Saturday, January 11, Bass, 71, said she and Crowley are “focused” on putting out the multiple fires surrounding Los Angeles County and “any differences that we might have will be worked out in private.”

Many celebrities have been directly impacted by the Southern California fires. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, Anna Faris, Paris Hilton, Ricki Lake and Melissa Rivers were just some of the stars who lost their homes in the Palisades Fire.

As of Tuesday, January 14, the fire has burned more than 23,000 acres and was 17 percent contained. According to the Los Angeles Times, roughly 92,000 people remain under evacuation orders, and 89,000 others are in areas where evacuation warnings have been issued.

Christina Haack revealed her divorce battle with estranged husband Josh Hall is far from over.

“[We’re] not even close,” Haack, 41, said on the Thursday, January 9, episode of Radio Andy’s Jeff Lewis Live. “We’re going to be going to trial I hear.”

The HGTV star alleged that Hall, 44, “doesn’t want to do mediation” and inferred he wasn’t moving the process along.

“It’s going to be fun,” she told host Jeff Lewis. “Can’t wait.”

Christina Haack and Joshua Hall List Different Dates of Separation in Docs

Haack and Hall both filed for divorce in July 2024 after more than two years of marriage.

According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, Haack — who hired divorce attorney Laura Wasser — requested that neither party receive spousal support and wanted Hall to pay her lawyer fees. Hall, meanwhile, was seeking spousal support from his ex and asked her to pay his attorney fees.

“[The court hasn’t] ordered me yet but he’s been asking me [for money],” Haack alleged in her latest interview. “I’ve already had to give a little something but then he bought a Bentley. I gave him money to live and he bought a Bentley but he also doesn’t have a job so.”

In response to Haack’s latest interview, Hall’s spokesperson told Us: “Hall is not available for comment, as he’s continuing to live his life in the present and celebrating his beautiful new girlfriend’s birthday. With that said, it’s sad Christina must resort to low blows about her ex Josh to promote her new show. She should focus on her new boyfriend and stop talking about Josh. As the great Mariah Carey once sang, ‘Why you so obsessed with me?’ We wish Christina the best.

Hall’s rep added, “Christina knows nothing about Josh’s life, and it’s sad she keeps speculating. Her accusations are baseless.”

Haack is now reportedly dating Christopher LaRocca, who is the CEO of Network Connex in Orange County, California. As for Hall, an insider previously told Us he is dating Stephanie Gabrys, a model based in Nashville.

During the interview, Lewis, 54, also tried to play a game where he asked his guest to name the ex who most applies to the question.

Haack was previously married to Tarek El Moussa from 2009 to 2018. They share Taylor, 14, and Brayden, 9. She also shares Hudson, 5, with ex-husband Ant Anstead.

When asked to share the best travel companion, Haack said “myself.” Anstead, 45, was named for best ex in a crisis while El Moussa, 43, was named best dressed.

When being pressed about the best kisser, Haack stayed quiet. “I can’t,” she said before playfully putting her head on the table.

All jokes aside, Haack does appear to be in a good place with some of her exes.

Later this month, the HGTV star will team up with Tarek and his wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, on a new series titled The Flip Off.

Haack also exclusively told Us that her relationship with Anstead improved after her split from Hall — especially when it comes to coparenting Hudson.

Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa React to Christina and Joshua Hall's Split

“When Josh and I split up, I hadn’t really talked to Ant in years,” Haack shared in her Us Weekly cover story. “The whole time I was with Josh, I would worry [thinking about how] Hudson’s sports [games] are coming up, we’re going to have to be on the field together, how’s Josh going to handle it?”

After her romantic relationship with Hall came to an end, Haack said things took a turn.

“[After we broke up] I was dropping Hudson off at Ant’s house, and he gave me a big hug and was like, ‘I’m here for you and I’m so sorry you’re going through this,’” she recalled to Us. “He said, ‘I feel like Josh is the source of the problem [and why] I couldn’t communicate.’ Now we’re back on track.”

Teen Mom: The Next Chapter star Ryan Edwards has come a long way from his teenage days.

When making his TV debut on MTV’s 16 and Pregnant in 2009, the high school student and his then-girlfriend Maci Bookout were preparing to welcome a child named Bentley.

Cameras continued to roll as the pair became parents, broke up and learned how to coparent successfully.

Now that Bentley is officially a teenager — he turned 16 in 2024 — Edwards (who has been open about his addiction struggles) finds himself in a new chapter of his life. Since 2023, the reality star has been in a healthy relationship with Amanda Conner.

“I think we’ve both come a very long way,” he exclusively shared with Us Weekly in October 2024. “I just think we both want a lot better for each other.”

Keep reading to learn more about how their love story came to be:

Fall 2023

Edwards reportedly met Conner when he was participating in court-ordered rehab for his ongoing drug addiction. In April 2024, Bookout confirmed to Us that her ex was one year sober.

“He’s doing really well,” she gushed. “He’s doing the work.”

May 2024

Edwards’ ex approves! In an exclusive interview with Us, Bookout shared her seal of approval in regards to her ex’s new girlfriend. “We’re definitely friends.

October 2024

On October 9, Edwards and Conner exclusively confirmed to Us that they are expecting a baby girl in the spring of 2025. “I’m very excited,” Edwards shared. “I actually wanted a girl.”

Conner vowed she wouldn’t be a helicopter mom, but hoped her child wouldn’t go through everything she went through like challenging family dynamics. “I just want her to be very open to the world,” she explained, “but strong minded about certain things.”

November 2024

To celebrate the arrival of their baby girl, Edwards and Conner hosted a baby shower with their extended family. Social media posts showed Bookout was invited to the bash and stopped by with her husband Taylor McKinney.

January 2025

Edwards confirmed he and Conner were engaged via Instagram on January 12 when the reality star shared a video of himself getting down on one knee to propose.

For the special moment, which was seemingly captured by MTV cameras, the reality star invited his eldest son, Bentley, to witness the romantic gesture. (Edwards also shares Jagger, 6, and Stella, 5, with ex-wife Mackenzie Standifer.)

Teen Mom: The Next Chapter returns on MTV Thursday, January 30, at 8 p.m. ET.

It’s official: Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu is returning to Love Island: All Stars season 2.

The reality star exclusively confirmed to Us Weekly on Monday, January 13, that she is looking for love again — this time in South Africa.

“Coming back for All Stars is a homecoming and a full circle moment for me,” Ekin-Su, 30, told Us. “It’s about rewriting my story, overcoming traumas and having a good laugh along the way. I’m returning with more perspective — being older and wiser — and I’m ready for everyone to get to know Ekin 2.0.”

Fans were introduced to Ekin-Su in 2022 during season 8 of Love Island. Although she was crowned the winner alongside Davide Sanclimenti, the pair didn’t secure that coveted happily ever after once the cameras stopped rolling.

“My life has changed so much since 2022,” she explained. “I’ve become much more confident in who I am and now know exactly what I deserve in a relationship.”

While it’s unclear if Davide, 30, will make an appearance in season 2 of Love Island: All Stars, Ekin-Su isn’t scared of or nervous about the possibility of potentially facing any of her exes.

Instead, she vowed to “follow my heart and my gut and see what comes of it.”

“I wouldn’t let seeing my ex in the villa impact my experience,” Ekin-Su shared with Us. “My previous relationship is over for a reason and I don’t have any interest in revisiting it. I’m focused on myself and my future — leaving the past in the past. Onwards and upwards!”

Before returning to the Love Island franchise, Ekin-Su appeared on Celebrity Big Brother and The Traitors.

Because each experience was unique and different, the BPerfect Cosmetics ambassador said both shows provided a collection of valuable lessons she’ll take with her on Love Island, round two.

“I have learned how to be more mindful of reacting to things that don’t matter in the long run,” she explained. “Sometimes you just need to step away from the situation to realize that things aren’t as big of a deal as they seem.”

Before packing her bags with plenty of must-see looks from brands like Mars the Label, House of CB, Odd Muse and Outcast Clothing. Ekin-Su said she hopes her experience on Love Island: All Stars can be a symbol of moving forward after a breakup.

With reporting by Amanda Williams

Tyler Henry continues to grab the attention of skeptics and believers alike — especially when some of his most incredible predictions turn out to be true.

Since 2016, the clairvoyant medium has been delivering prophetic messages to celebrities through a variety of reality TV shows, including Hollywood Medium and Life After Death.

While many stars walk away with messages from their deceased loved ones, some receive specific predictions from Henry about what their future could hold. .

In October 2024, Ricki Lake appeared on Life After Death With Tyler Henry and received a warning from Henry, who cautioned that the former television host could “lose something” from “fire and water.”

Celebrities Share Personal Photos of Heartbreaking Los Angeles Wildfires

Three months later, the talk show host lost her home during the devastating Palisades Fire in California. “Grateful to have made it out alive and uninjured,” Lake wrote via Instagram on January 10, 2025, when confirming her house was burned down. “No doubt had we stayed, we would not have survived.”

Keep reading to see more of Henry’s predictions that turned out to be accurate:

Ricki Lake

A post shared by Ricki Lake (@rickilake)

While receiving a reading from Henry, Lake was warned that some of her property may be damaged because of fire.

“There might end up being a coincidence where, not only do we lose everything, something,” Henry speculated. “I think this might have already happened. If there was a loss of material objects from both fire and water. It’s two separate things. We’re gonna end up finding there’s a story where there was a house fire or something along those lines; a fire risk.”

Three months after the reading, Lake’s house burned down in a Los Angeles wildfire. “The great @tylerhenrymedium called it!” she proclaimed on Instagram. “Guys, he SAW the fire. The show is on @netflix. I urge you to watch it.”

Tom Arnold

When meeting with Henry in season one of Hollywood Medium, Arnold was curious if he and his wife, Ashley, would have a second child.

“It does look as though that is possible,” Henry explained. “Generally when I see fertility issues, I usually go to the woman. In your case, it would be going to you. With help or assistance, it does look possible in some form.”

Two months after receiving his reading, Arnold had news to share: “@tyhenrymedium buddy you were right about EVERYTHING,” he wrote via X in June 2015. “We are having a girl this fall. Meant to tell you last week. Thank you #crazyweird.”

Brie Garcia 

In September 2016, Brie and her sister, Nikki Garcia, met with Henry and received a message from their late grandfather.

“He is acknowledging that he’s with a child on the other side that hasn’t been born yet but what’s interesting is this child will be born over the course of the next two years,” Henry said. “I don’t know who it’s for, but it’s coming through.”

In 2017, Brie welcomed her first child with husband Daniel Bryan.

Alan Thicke 

Thicke received a personal message from Henry about his health.

“For the men in your family, it’s really good to just take into consideration that blood pressure is going to be something that we really have to keep in mind,” Henry shared in a May 2017 episode of Hollywood Medium. “Heart issues — they happen to men, it’s not uncommon. When it comes to a family and a gene perspective, it’s possible that within your family there might be multiple men who end up at a later age dealing with blood pressure issues, but also deal with either a heart murmur or heart arrhythmia.”

The Growing Pains star ultimately died in December 2016 at the age of 69 from a ruptured aorta.

Amber Rose

Following her split from Wiz Khalifa, Rose was curious if she would ever find love again.

“Keep in mind a man with a ‘T’ name,” Henry shared. “That’s all I’ll say. I believe that over the course of the next — well I’m seeing Spring — I see an opportunity for two relationships. There’s a ‘T’ initial and then I’m referencing to a man with a record label.”

Rose later started dating NBA player Terrence Ross. “@tyhenrymedium I may have found my ‘T,’” she wrote via X. Their relationship, however, reportedly ended just a few months later.

Khloe Kardashian

In 2018, Kardashian appeared on Hollywood Medium and seemingly received a warning about her relationship with NBA player Tristan Thompson.

“I really am feeling like love life is not the area right now that is reaching its peak,” Henry said. “One of the challenges that’s coming through is a referral of ultimately being distant, but in a physical sense. …Two people’s schedules would not be ideal for kind of a cohesive relationship.”

After many ups and downs, Kardashian confirmed in a June 2024 episode of The Kardashians that she and Thompson were over.

“She’s really easy to be around,” Bookout told Us Weekly in May 2024. “You know when you meet people and you can just feel the energy? She’s just got really good energy.”

“Honesty is one of my biggest things, honest about who you are, about who me and Ryan are, I want to be honest about that,” Conner exclusively told Us. “I don’t want to hide anything from her. I’m going to be very cautious. I don’t want to be a helicopter mom, but I don’t want our child to go through anything that we’ve had to go through. I just want her to be very open to the world, but strong-minded about certain things.”

Teen Mom: The Next Chapter returns on MTV Thursday, January 30, at 8 p.m. ET.

Country music singer Randall King and his fiancée, Brittany Warthan, are preparing for the joys of parenthood.

“I’m about to be a father,” King exclusively revealed to Us Weekly. “I am responsible for a life. I’m responsible for my family. It’s definitely changed my perspective and it’s changed the angles of my songwriting. There’s a happiness in my writing now that wasn’t in my music forever.”

In celebration of the big news, King and Warthan — who is also a fellow singer/songwriter — teamed up for a heartfelt duet titled “Baby Steps.” The track celebrates the little moments that go into building a relationship, each culminating in the next chapter of their lives as they prepare to become parents.

“It takes you through pretty much our whole relationship and how we started, where we were,” King shared when explaining the song’s concept. Warthan added, “We’ve really been through a whole lot, and the last year has been the most growth for us.”

Country Music’s Biggest Couples

Before participating in a maternity photo shoot with Evan De Stefano, Warthan surprised King by sharing her pregnancy news during a game of Uno.

At first, the country singer thought he was playing an innocent game that would be filmed for social media content. What came next was a big reveal that was captured on film.

“These Uno cards have blank spots where you write in your own rule,” King recalled. “Sometimes you drop that card and it’s a blank white spot. You just make up a rule. … She drops this card. She had written on the card, and I was like, ‘That’s weird. What’s this rule going to be?’ It said, ‘Draw four. The baby’s on the way.’”

Ever since learning about the news, King and Warthan have been envisioning what life will look like as they raise their child.

Warthan hopes her baby has “confidence” and learns to be “fearless.” As for King, he hopes his first child will display “strong-willed determination.”

“That’s what’s driven me my entire life,” he explained to Us. “If you want it, you go get it. I want my kid to have that same drive.”

As the couple continues making new music and traveling for various performances, both artists can’t help but look to some familiar faces in country music for inspiration.

King has respect for Norma and George Strait’s love story and for being “incredible people with strong morals who raised great families.”

Meanwhile, Warthan has respect for Jason and Brittany Aldean’s ability to have successful careers and family life. “They might have it all,” she shared. “Through my eyes and watching them, they have so many experiences with their children while Jason is still killing it, and Brittany started a couple businesses and does a bunch of things.”

Jason and Brittany Aldean’s Relationship Timeline

Before their baby arrives in the spring, both Warthan and King are confident they have what it takes to handle life as Mom and Dad. As Warthan reminded Us, “God doesn’t give you anything that you can’t handle.”

“Randall stands really strong in what he believes, and I just think it’s going to be a great experience,” Warthan shared. “I don’t think he’s going to fall short at all. I strongly believe that.”

King added, “I know she’s gonna be a great parent and a great godly woman to lead our kid into salvation. We’re gonna raise our kiddo in Jesus and country music.” 

Justin Baldoni’s experience meeting Britney Spears on set is being examined thanks to a resurfaced clip.

During a January 2017 interview with Fuse, Baldoni, 40, recalled an awkward moment when he interacted with the pop superstar while she was guest starring on Jane the Virgin.

“I know she was a fan of the show,” he recalled. “We were shooting and then a few of us that weren’t in scenes with her came to watch one of her scenes. Because I had tweeted her and she had tweeted me back, I’d gone up to her [too], so in my mind we were friends, but we weren’t. I went up and I gave her a big hug and I think I scared her.”

After the moment, Baldoni saw his costars laughing, leaving the actor wondering: “Did I just harass Britney Spears?”

‘Jane The Virgin’ Cast: Where Are They Now?

“I was a huge Britney Spears fan in high school. What adolescent boy wasn’t?” he asked. “The guest star I was most excited to work with was Britney Spears. And then it turned out, I didn’t get to work with her. And there was zero scenes with Rafael and Britney Spears — probably at her request.”

Baldoni played Rafael Solano in Jane the Virgin for nearly 100 episodes between 2014 and 2019. During season 2, the show welcomed Spears, 43, as a guest star where she played herself.

“I had tweeted her. I was going to bring a poster from her Live [From] Las Vegas tour to set and I didn’t do that because I don’t have one,” Baldoni recalled. “I was joking. But I think she thought I was serious.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Baldoni’s team for comment on the video.

The resurfaced clip comes as Baldoni finds himself in a legal battle with his It Ends With Us costar Blake Lively.

In December 2024, Lively, 37, sued Baldoni for sexual harassment. The lawsuit alleges that there was a meeting conducted to address Lively’s claims that there was a “hostile work environment” on set. She also accused the actor of launching a “social manipulation” campaign against her to “destroy” her reputation.

Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s Alleged Feud and Lawsuits Explained

Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, called Lively’s accusations “completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious” in a statement to Us, claiming that Lively filed the lawsuit to “fix her negative reputation” and “rehash a narrative” about the movie’s production.

Baldoni hit back days later with his own lawsuit, where he was listed as one of the 10 plaintiffs suing The New York Times for $250 million after its reporting on Lively’s legal filing. Baldoni’s lawsuit alleged that Lively pursued a “strategic and manipulative” smear campaign against him and “cherry picked” communications while leaving out key details.

A spokesperson for The New York Times said that the publication is standing by the story and plans to “vigorously defend against the lawsuit.”

Vanderpump Rules alum Katie Maloney is mourning the death of her father, Rich Maloney.

“This last Sunday, my father passed away,” Katie, 37, wrote via Instagram on Friday, January 10. “Since I have been met with a variety of emotions, numbness, peace, complete udder sadness and even at times guilt. My dad was everyone’s favorite, he was so charming, made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. We shared the love of dad jokes and he had an endless supply.”

While paying tribute to her beloved family member, Katie shared photos from recent vacations including a snowy trip to Salt Lake City, Utah.

“He was always so supportive of my brothers and I growing up and as adults championed our endeavors,” she wrote. “I cannot smell Irish spring without immediately thinking about him, how the scent almost covered up the smell of wheel grease from his job. It’s a core memory that I have always held and hold closer now.”

Vanderpump Rules' Katie Maloney Has a New Boyfriend: 'I'm Really Happy'

Soon after sharing her personal news, the “Disrespectfully” podcast host received well wishes from her Bravo family.

“Sending you love ,” The Valley’s Janet Caperna wrote in the comments section. Summer House’s Amanda Batula added, “So sorry for your loss Katie .”

Earlier in the week, Katie’s brother, Rocky Maloney, also paid tribute to his father via Instagram, calling him “such an amazing person, dad and friend.”

“Dad, I will think about you everyday,” he wrote. “I will always look at my phone waiting for our daily phone call to talk sports.”

As the Maloney family continues their grieving process, Katie is focused on all the positive memories she made with her father away from any camera crews.

“Dad, I love you forever, thank you for the million laughs, for the father-daughter dances throughout life and for the love you gave us,” she said. “I feel like I am a stranger to grief. As much as it has touched my life and so many I love. It’s not something I have become comfortable or well acquainted with.”

Katie Maloney Has Only Spoken to 2 'VPR' Costars Since Recasting News

Katie is an original cast member of Vanderpump Rules and documented her life in West Hollywood for 11 seasons.

Although Bravo announced in November 2024 that the show would be revamping for season 12 with a brand-new cast, the reality star has her hands full with a variety of projects including her Something About Her sandwich shop with costar Ariana Madix.

“It’s a mixed bag. But I wouldn’t change a thing,” Katie shared via her Instagram Story after the news was announced. “Thank you for the memories and the love the last 11 years.”

Bravo’s biggest stars are ready to take over The Traitors for season 3.

After a new season launched on Peacock on Thursday, January 9, viewers got to see Chanel Ayan, Dolores Catania, Tom Sandoval, Robyn Dixon, Dorinda Medley and Ciara Miller in a whole new environment.

While some prepared to embrace a new experience in a Scotland castle, others were a bit hesitant to find out what the reality show would be about.

“When you go to Rome, you got to do what Romans do. Everybody is basic as f—. I got to be basic too,” Ayan, 46, shared via Instagram on January 3. “Why play fair, when I can play fabulous?”

‘The Traitors’ Season 3 Cast Includes Sandoval, Chrishell and Gabby Windey

Previously, The Traitors has featured Bravo stars like Summer House’s Kyle Cooke and Shahs of Sunset’s Reza Farahan. Season 2 also featured a powerful Bravo alliance made up of Sheree Whitfield, Mercedes “MJ” Javid and Kate Chastain.

As season 3 kicks off, get to know the Bravo stars entering the candle for an unforgettable adventure hosted by Alan Cumming:

Chanel Ayan — ‘The Real Housewives of Dubai’ 

Before The Real Housewives of Dubai was put on pause after season 2 in November 2024, Ayan brought the fashion, glamour and drama. As she begins The Traitors, the Bravo star admitted this experience will be a whole new ballgame.

“I have no idea what’s going on,” Ayan said via Instagram before the season 3 premiere. “As a model on Housewives, I don’t think so much. Here, I need to activate my brain so I can literally start getting into this game.”

Dolores Catania — ‘The Real Housewives of New Jersey’

If there’s one thing The Real Housewives of New Jersey fans know about Catania, 54, it’s that loyalty is everything. No matter how much drama enters New Jersey, the Bravo star tries to see both sides and keep the peace.

While Catania can lose her temper — never forget her fight with Margaret Josephs about an alleged reunion meeting  — the Jersey girl tries to keep it cool, until you cross her.

In August 2024, Catania had the support of Medley, 60, and Ayan at her annual charity softball game in Brooklyn, New York.

Robyn Dixon — ‘The Real Housewives of Potomac’

After eight seasons, Dixon, 45, said goodbye to The Real Housewives of Potomac in April 2024. While some costars questioned the state of her relationship with longtime partner Juan Dixon, nobody could doubt her friendship and bond with costar Gizelle Bryant.

While Dixon has proven to be a loyal friend in Potomac, fans are curious to see if she will continue to be trustworthy or choose to be reasonably shady.

Dorinda Medley — ‘The Real Housewives of New York City’

From 2015 to 2020, Medley did her best to make it nice on The Real Housewives of New York City. While she was put on pause by Andy Cohen, she returned to participate in The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip and became friends with Catania by playing softball together.

While Medley has been known for her iconic one liners, could her temper make her a threat in the house? Time will tell. Clip!

Ciara Miller — ‘Summer House’ 

Miller is exchanging weekends in the Hamptons for a new adventure at a Scotland castle. The Bravo star was a nurse who chose to put her career on the back burner to pursue a career in modeling.

In her last season of Summer House, Miller, 29, dealt with heartbreak when she developed feelings — and disappointment — for her costar West Wilson. With the fling in her past, Miller is ready to win the hearts of her Traitors cast — and some big money.

Tom Sandoval — ‘Vanderpump Rules’ 

As an original cast member of Vanderpump Rules, Sandoval, 42, has faced his fair share of OMG moments. Most recently, he faced the consequences of cheating on his longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix with her close friend and costar Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.

'The Traitors' Season 3 Features Surprise Cameos From 2 Fan Favorites

While the former SUR employee has tried to move on, some of his Traitors peers may not be so willing to forgive and forget.

Miller previously called Sandoval “annoying” when filming Winter House together. “The sound of his voice was annoying,” she shared on an August 2023 episode of the “Viall Files” podcast. “He talked a lot about himself, his business ventures … himself. That was just on an hour-long car ride to the mountain.”

The Traitors season 3 is streaming now on Peacock with new episodes premiering Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.

Jessica Alba and Cash Warren’s fairytale romance appears to have taken a turn.

After 16 years of marriage, the couple recently decided to separate and are preparing to file for divorce, TMZ reported on Wednesday, January 8.

The duo’s love story began when they met on the set of The Fantastic Four in 2004, where Alba, 43, was the lead actress and Warren, 46, was a production assistant. They tied the knot four years later.

While the couple — who share Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7 — have not publicly commented on their relationship status, both Alba and Warren have talked openly about the highs and lows of marriage.

Before saying goodbye to 2024, Alba posted a collage of images reflecting on the past 12 months of her life. While she was able to post memories from vacations, girls’ night outs and various projects, the Honest Company founder failed to post any photos of Warren.

“Here’s to a colorful past year that was filled with connection, growth, adventures, laughter, peace, sisterhood, transformation, rebirth, joy and so much love ,” she wrote via Instagram on December 31. “Sending hugs to everyone going through it- cheers to 2025 and even more love to come!

In the middle of celebrating 10 years of his clothing brand Pair of Thieves, Warren reflected on his marriage to Alba in an exclusive interview with Us Weekly.

While reflecting on their bond, Warren admitted that it took “hard work” to keep their union strong.

“I think, ultimately, the friendship and support and just knowing that your partner has your back means everything to us,” he told Us in July 2024. “I think that would be the secret, is just having each other’s back. It’s hard work, but we roll up our sleeves and we do it. It’s wild. It’s the longest relationship I could have ever imagined.”

A post shared by Cash Warren (@cash_warren)

Back in April 2024, Alba appeared on an episode of Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt’s “BDA Baby” podcast. When asked how she was able to find balance amid her heavy responsibilities — and ensure “your husband feels tended to” — Alba admitted it was a process.

“You know, I think that [Cash] probably gets the short end of the stick,” she said. “It’s hard. It’s impossible.”

She advised couples “to communicate when you’re unhappy and nipping it right away” before it becomes a bigger issue.

“We have, obviously, the friendship, the comfort of, like, ‘You’re not going anywhere,’” Alba added. “And so sometimes you don’t treat those people the best, right? You don’t consider their feelings in the way that you would consider other people’s feelings. So that is something that I think is a constant — it’s a constant one to work on.”

Jessica Alba Compared Cash Warren Marriage to Being ‘Roommates’

While chatting with Schwarzenneger Pratt, 35, Alba continued to give an honest perspective on marriage life.

“I would say it’s all rosy for two-and-a-half years,” she shared. “But then after that, you become roommates. You’re just going through the motions, the responsibilities. It’s a lot of, like, checking the boxes.”

During an August 2023 appearance on Jana Kramer’s “Whine Down” podcast, Warren said he briefly broke up with Alba four years into the relationship.

“When we first started dating, I was really jealous of other guys and the attention that she was getting from other guys, and it just wasn’t making me feel good,” Warren said. “I was always a pretty confident person in my own, kind of, walking my own path and really happy there. And next thing you know, I’m looking up and just feeling jealous all the time.”

After his feelings led to a breakup with Alba, Warren said he vowed to “channel [my jealousy] in a different way, into a more productive way.”

The Real Housewives of Potomac’s Karen Huger will be missing from the season 9 reunion taping to focus on her health.

“Karen made the important decision to enter a private recovery program, so was unable to attend the reunion taping today,” Huger’s manager, Ryan Tresdale, said in a statement to Bravo’s The Daily Dish on Thursday, January 9. “She was fully supported in this choice. We stand behind Karen as she embarks on this meaningful journey and are proud of her for taking such a significant step forward in her personal growth.”

Earlier in the day, Bravo shared a sneak peek of the upcoming reunion and Huger, 61, was noticeably absent from the cast.

“Dropping the #RHOP Season 9 Reunion seating chart here,” Bravo wrote via Instagram. “More info to come soon…”

Mia Thornton, Wendy Osefo and newcomer Stacey Rusch were seated on one side of host Andy Cohen. On the other side were Gizelle Bryant, Ashley Darby and newbie Keiarna Stewart.

“Where is Karen??” The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams wrote in the comments section as fans speculated where the original Real Housewives of Potomac star could be.

In a separate Instagram Story, Bravo posted a photo of Cohen’s hand touching Bryant’s freshly manicured nails. “Holding space for the #RHOP reunion,” the network wrote. “Filming now.”

In December 2024, Huger, 61, was convicted of DUI, negligent driving, failure to control speed to avoid a collision and failure to notify authorities of an address change, according to a report from Fox5 DC. The report also stated she was acquitted of one charge of reckless driving.

After the guilty verdict, the police body cam footage from Huger’s arrest was also released.

“Although we are disappointed in the jury’s verdict, we of course respect their decision and appreciate their time hearing our case,” Huger’s attorney, A. Scott Bolden, told People in a statement at the time. “We continue to reserve Mrs. Huger’s right to an appeal and intend to fully pursue justice on her behalf. We appreciate your support and prayers for Mrs. Huger and her family at this time.”

The reality star — whose nickname is the Grand Dame — is scheduled to be sentenced on Wednesday, January 29, and faces up to two years behind bars.

Throughout season 9 of The Real Housewives of Potomac, Huger said she has been limited about what she can say about her case that stemmed from a Maryland car accident in March 2024.

Cash Warren shared a glimpse into what made his marriage to Jessica Alba work just months before their reported split.

“I think, ultimately, the friendship and support and just knowing that your partner has your back means everything to us,” Warren, 45, exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2024 when celebrating the 10-year anniversary of Pair of Thieves. “I think that would be the secret, is just having each other’s back. It’s hard work, but we roll up our sleeves and we do it. It’s wild. It’s the longest relationship I could have ever imagined.”

The couple — who share Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7 — were together for 20 years and married for 16 before they reportedly separated. The couple has not publicly commented on the status of their relationship.

In honor of Hayes’ birthday on December 31, 2024, the couple recently enjoyed a family day at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Jessica Alba and Cash Warren’s Honest Relationship Quotes Before Split

While family time has always been a priority for Warren and Alba, 43, the duo also tried to make time for date night away from any kids.

“For us, it’s getting out of the house and going and staying somewhere else for a night,” Warren previously told Us. “Unplugging is big. We love taking walks. We love chatting. We love eating good food together. We have so many of the same interests that we enjoy. What’s awesome is that we’re also still willing to participate.”

Warren praised Alba for being on an “awesome spiritual journey” that included sound baths and learning about crystals.

“I’ll get my charts read,” he added. “I’ll learn about it alongside her and she’s always opening me up to new things.”

Before her split from Warren was announced, Alba appeared on an April 2024 episode of Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt’s “BDA Baby” podcast. When asked how she was able to find balance amid her heavy responsibilities — and ensure “your husband feels tended to” — Alba admitted it was a process.

“If you’ve figured it out in your relationship, let me know,” she said. “You know, I think that [Cash] probably gets the short end of the stick. … It’s hard. It’s impossible.”

She advised listeners that it was important “to communicate when you’re unhappy and nipping it right away instead of letting it sort of, like, fester.”

“We have, obviously, the friendship, the comfort of, like, ‘You’re not going anywhere,’” Alba added. “And so sometimes you don’t treat those people the best, right? You don’t consider their feelings in the way that you would consider other people’s feelings. So that is something that I think is a constant — it’s a constant one to work on.”

Through all of Alba’s accomplishments, however, Warren was a vocal supporter.

After Alba stepped down from the Honest Company in April 2024 to redirect her focus on new projects and passions, Warren expressed how proud he was of his wife.

“What she was able to accomplish with the Honest Company is amazing and she’s still involved. She’s still on the board. We’re obviously still a Honest household,” he told Us in July 2024. “I’ve just been blown away that she was able to so elegantly step down from her role with Honest and jump back into acting and immediately find success like that. It’s mind blowing to me. I’m just like, ‘How do you do that?!’”

Jennifer Aydin is speaking out after losing a reality cruise gig over her controversial Jersey Mike’s videos.

“Somebody had messaged me [while on vacation] that I was cut from the cruise. I had no idea,” Aydin, 47, exclusively told Us Weekly on Wednesday, January 8. “My manager didn’t want to tell me. She didn’t want anything to ruin my trip. Then I went to the website and I saw my name wasn’t there. And you know what? I took it like a champ.”

Aydin was expected to join her Real Housewives of New Jersey costars Teresa Giudice and Dolores Catania on a luxury cruise experience aboard the brand-new Norwegian Aqua in September 2025. Titled “Wives on the Waves,” the event would allow guests to vacation with some of their favorite Bravo stars.

A rep for the “Wives on the Waves” cruise confirmed to Us that Aydin would no longer be part of the event after she went viral for criticizing some Jersey Mike’s employees at one of the sandwich shop’s airport occasions.

Andy Cohen Reacts to Jennifer Aydin’s Claim She’s Returning to ‘RHONJ’

“This decision was not personal nor an act of canceling anyone. At Fans at Sea, we believe in second chances and personal growth,” Patrick Harbison said in a statement. “Our priority is to create a drama-free, fun-filled experience for everyone. To ensure this, we made adjustments to keep the cruise enjoyable and welcoming for all guests.”

According to Aydin, she accepted the cruise’s decision and didn’t want to fight against the lost opportunity.

“This is a business and this is their business, and I do not want them to receive any backlash because of me,” she told Us. “The cruise was a fun idea for me because I love an opportunity to engage with the fans, but it’s all good. The timing wasn’t the most ideal for my family. The kids are going back to school that week and my kids were already complaining that I had committed to doing it. Everything happens for a reason.”

Jennifer and her husband, Dr. Bill Aydin, share five children including Justin, 20, Gabby, 17, Jacob, 15, Christian, 13, and Olivia, 11.

While Jennifer wishes she could cruise with her fans, “I understand that this is totally business and I respect the cruise’s decision.”

Jennifer sparked controversy earlier this month when she claimed in a social media video that she waited for “what felt like forever” to receive service from an airport Jersey Mike’s.

Her treatment of employees went viral — and caught the attention of Andy Cohen — with one worker posting a response in a TikTok video, referring to Jennifer as a “stupid bitch.” A GoFundMe page was also created for another employee featured in Jennifer’s videos.

While speaking with Us, Jennifer asserted that she “was not rude” to any of the food chain’s staff.

“I will call a spade a spade,” she said. “That staff was very highly dismissive, not just to me, to everybody on that line. Everybody was frustrated.”

At the same time, Jennifer admitted that she should not have posted any clips to her 549,000 Instagram followers.
