Paris Jackson and the executor of her late father Michael Jackson's estate are duking it out in court again … beefing over sealing documents in their never-ending legal battle.

In newly filed court docs, obtained by TMZ, Paris slams John Branca's request to seal certain documents related to her objections to his request for payment of fees.

For his part, John claims it would be bad if the information in the docs were made public … because it could mess with future business deals or be used by their adversaries.

Screenshots or it didn't happen? Gleb Savchenko says he's got 'em ... at least when it comes to his child custody war with his ex-wife.

The "Dancing with the Stars" pro says he has hard proof in his emergency custody battle with Elena Samodanova over daughters Olivia and Zlata... dropping screenshots he says prove she traveled to Moscow with their youngest daughter without his consent.

Gleb filed docs with the alleged proof ... one screenshot appears to show Elena's phone location pinging in Moscow ... while another captures a WhatsApp conversation with his law firm in which she allegedly says she arrived in Russia for a family funeral. Gleb claims the messages also confirm their youngest was with her.

"90 Day Fiancé" star Armando Niedermeier-Rubio is unable to enter the country to be by his daughter's side as she's being treated in the ICU ... because TMZ has learned he was turned away at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Here's the deal ... Armando announced Wednesday his daughter, Hannah, was rushed to the ER at a Mexican hospital after half her face became "droopy" and half her body lost its strength. Assuming something was wrong with her brain, he and the doctor decided to transfer Hannah to the USA so she could obtain better care.

Armando's husband, Kenny Niedermeier, tells TMZ ... Armando tried to enter the country using a letter from the hospital, but he was turned away.

"Dancing with the Stars" pro Gleb Savchenko has filed a request for an emergency child custody order as he claims his ex has kept their kids in Hong Kong since 2023 ... TMZ has learned.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, Gleb shares two daughters, Olivia and Zlata, with his ex-wife Elena Samodanova ... and following their divorce, the girls relocated to Hong Kong with their mother.

But Gleb claims they agreed the move was only meant to be temporary and the kids were supposed to return to the United States by June 30, 2024 ... that never happened, and he now says Elena refuses to send them back.

Brielle Biermann says the only sign of Kroy on her wedding day might just be her last name ... because she has no idea if he even plans to show up.

Photogs got Brielle at LAX on Tuesday ... and they asked her if both Kroy and her mom, Kim Zolciak, planned to be at her wedding despite their nasty divorce.

Check out the clip ... Brielle says she can't answer that question -- because she hasn't heard from Kroy in a while, and she's got no idea what he's got up his sleeve.

Justin Verlander's final MLB All-Star Game came with one heck of a cheering section ... Kate Upton and the couple's two kids made a rare appearance for the baseball legend's summer send-off.

The notoriously private family stepped out together Tuesday night in Philadelphia ... with Kate joining Justin alongside daughter Genevieve and son Bellamy before the Midsummer Classic.

Another kid of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is getting closer to closing the book on the family name ... Zahara has taken the next legal step to become Zahara Jolie.

Court documents, obtained by TMZ, show Zahara has completed one of California's required hurdles for a legal name change by publishing notice of her petition in the Los Angeles Daily Journal once a week for four consecutive weeks and calling for anyone opposing the change to submit a written opposition before the final hearing.

As TMZ previously reported, the 21-year-old filed her petition in June asking to legally change her name from Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt to Zahara Marley Jolie. The filing states the notice ran on June 16, June 23, June 30, and July 7 ... and next up is Zahara's September 28 hearing, where a judge can approve the request if no one objects.

Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton's romance just hit another checkpoint ... and now he's riding shotgun with her kids.

Kim dropped a fresh batch of Instagram pics Monday from the Kardashian crew's Fourth of July getaway in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho ... and tucked inside the carousel is a sweet selfie that says a whole lot without saying a word.

One snap shows Kim smiling alongside her boo while daughter Chicago squeezes into the frame ... a wholesome moment that sure looks like the seven-time Formula 1 champ is becoming part of the family. After all, you're not posing for selfies with Kim and Kanye's kids unless things are getting pretty serious.

In another photo, it looks like Lewis rode dirt bikes with Kim and three kids.

Before this cheesing cutie turned into a star, she was just growing up in Los Angeles, California and slaying commercials when she was just 6 years old.

She was born in Switzerland and starred alongside Lindsay Lohan in "The Parent Trap," and in more recent years appeared on "The Masked Singer" and "The Holiday Calendar." She was also set to play Diana Ross in the biopic "Michael" ... before her scenes were scrapped due to legal issues.

Kristin Cavallari says her custody agreement with her ex-husband Jay Cutler has changed ... and she's got the lion's share.

Kristin alluded to a change in child custody during an appearance on the "Aspire with Emma Grede" podcast ... revealing she has primary custody of her three kids with ex-husband Jay Cutler despite the original 50/50 arrangement.

While Kristin didn't dive into the reason for the change, it doesn't come as a huge surprise.

Here's Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's daughter strutting her stuff at Paris Fashion Week ... and it looks like she's commanding the stage.

See for yourself ... Sunday Rose looked cool and collected while wearing a striped Dior overcoat, black pants, and white pumps on Monday ... just a day before turning 18.

Her appearance is a pretty big deal for a few reasons -- one being that she whipped up a little controversy when she attended the Met Gala with her superstar mom in early May ... she was not 18 at the time and there's an adults-only attendance rule, which seems to be flexible.

Mitch McConnell's health saga is continuing to fuel questions in Washington ... and now, one of the people closest to him has suddenly gone silent online.

Porter McConnell -- the eldest daughter of the former Senate Majority Leader -- appears to have deactivated her X account as speculation about her 84-year-old father's condition continues to swirl. The account had long been active ... with Porter frequently criticizing both her father's politics and the Republican Party.

The move comes as McConnell remains out of public view following the tight-lipped medical emergency that landed him in the hospital last month.
