Gypsy Rose Blanchard's marriage hit rocky waters after a post-prison phone call from her ex-fiancé -- something we now know her estranged husband finds awfully suspicious.

Here's the deal ... sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that Gypsy's stepmother, Kristy, received a call from Gypsy's ex, Ken Urker, sometime in January -- right around the time the first season of her Lifetime show aired, and we're told he wanted to clear the air.

Our sources say Ken told Kristy he wanted to clarify the reason he'd broken things off with GRB a few years back. At the time, reports said he didn't like the newfound fame she was getting ... but we're told he explained he just wanted to give Gypsy space to grow.

O.J. Simpson's estate is NOT flush with the kinda cash you'd expect -- nor is it enough to satisfy his debt to Ron Goldman's family ... at least that's what his executor is claiming.

We got Simpson's longtime attorney Malcolm LaVergne Tuesday on "TMZ Live," and he opened up about O.J.'s finances following his death last week. As Malcolm put it, O.J. died with less than 5-figures in one Nevada bank account, and overall ... had less than millions to his name.

In his final days, O.J. was receiving the maximum amount of social security, as well as pensions from his time as an NFL star and actor. Malcolm claims those payments totaled less than the $400K per year that's been reported.

Christine Quinn claims her estranged husband never paid for hospital bills tied to their son's birth -- and now she's gunning for primary custody of the kid amid their ongoing divorce.

The "Selling Sunset" star just filed a response to Christian Dumontet's divorce petition from 2 weeks ago -- and she has some startling claims in her paperwork ... including the allegation that he never paid off a huge lingering medical tab from the birth of their son.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Christine claims these hospital bills ended up amounting to over $100,000 -- the total amount, she says, has yet to be determined -- and she alleges that Christian had assured her he would foot the bill and pay it off himself.

The $30 million heist from an L.A. storage facility -- which sounds like an "Ocean's 11" outtake -- remains a mystery for investigators, but they're zeroing in on several false alarms triggered in the building leading up to the burglary.

TMZ pulled the calls for police service to the GardaWorld money storage facility in the San Fernando Valley. The building was hit by burglars on Easter Sunday, but it turns out there's been lots of police activity there.

Based on the records obtained by TMZ, over the past year, police have made more than a dozen visits to GardaWorld -- and the vast majority of them turned out to be false alarms.

O.J. Simpson's attorney is doing an about-face on a statement he made last week in which he said the Goldmans would get zip from his late client's estate in the wake of his death.

Malcolm LaVergne -- the executor of O.J.'s will, and his longtime lawyer -- told THR that he might've been a little overzealous in what he initially said on this topic ... namely, that he'd fight tooth and nail to make sure the Goldmans received zero dollars from O.J.'s estate.

He says, "I can tell you in advance, Fred Goldman's claim will be accepted. And his claim will be handled in accordance with Nevada law."

Donald Trump's first criminal trial is getting underway, and on the first day of court proceedings -- he was reportedly dozing off ... now, a new nickname is among us.

The ex-Prez showed up in court Monday in NYC, where his hush-money case kicked off -- the first of his three criminal trials -- and where Donald had to sit through a day full of lawyers talking about the ins and outs of how this thing is gonna go.

Of course, they have to start with jury selection ... and as the attorneys were going back and forth, NYT reporter Maggie Haberman went on CNN to claim Trump appeared to be sleeping.

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was just sentenced in her criminal case -- and she's going to prison for a while ... this after a jury found her guilty over the fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins.

Hannah was able to speak before learning her fate ... addressing the court directly and pleading for mercy -- but more specifically, for probation. Obviously, the judge didn't bite.

2:13 PM PT -- A spokesperson for Kraft Heinz tells TMZ ... "We’re aware of the complaint and strongly disagree with the allegations. Certain substances like lead occur in the environment and can be found at low levels in agricultural products—whether on grocery store shelves, in the produce section, or grown in your back yard. Our products are safe for consumers, and we will vigorously defend our brand."

Kraft Heinz is facing a class action lawsuit -- which claims their Lunchables are basically a scrap yard for metals that end up in the mouths of kids everywhere.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Laura LaSpisa accuses Kraft of misleading consumers with false advertising about their pre-packaged meal kits. She claims they failed to mention the kits contain harmful levels of lead, cadmium, and phthalates -- a group of chemicals typically used to make plastic more durable.

According to the suit, a Consumer Reports study revealed some troubling findings recently ... and Laura claims until then, the company had convinced her she was buying a safe and nutritious snack.

Elisa Jordana's telling her side of the story following her arrest ... and she insists her ex-fiancé got way more violent than she did during a live stream as they were driving.

Jordana says she and Bahram Alipour, the man in the disturbing video, had set up a couples therapy session to discuss their future before they got married because they were having issues.

O.J. Simpson's estate won't pay his civil trial's judgment anytime soon ... according to the estate's executor who says he plans to fight any payments to the Browns or Goldmans.

Simpson's will -- obtained by TMZ -- names his longtime attorney Malcolm LaVergne as his executor ... and, Malcolm says he's focused on keeping money out of the hands of the families, specifically the Goldmans. The will also refers to a trust, which all his property was placed into in January.

Malcolm tells the Las Vegas Review-Journal, "It's my hope that the Goldmans get zero, nothing. Them specifically. And I will do everything in my capacity as the executor or personal representative to try and ensure that they get nothing."

It's the Ford Bronco behind one of the most jaw-dropping moments in TV history ... transporting O.J. Simpson and his friend Al Cowlings during a wild 90-minute police chase back in '94.

But, the infamous vehicle's no longer in the fast lane, as it's simply on display at the Alcatraz East Crime Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee ... where visitors can get a close-up look at the ride that captivated the country.

It's been a bumpy journey, though, going from L.A.'s 405 freeway to its final resting place in Tennessee -- it's a path that was detailed on a 2017 episode of "Pawn Stars."

Gypsy Rose Blanchard wants her estranged husband, Ryan Anderson, to pony up some dough as they end their marriage ... asking a judge to sign off on alimony for her.

TMZ has obtained Gypsy's divorce docs, and the big takeaway is the fact that she's requesting spousal support from Ryan ... both in the interim and in the long-term. She's also asking that the court deny Ryan spousal support from her end ... arguing he's not entitled to it.

The reason she feels that way ... Gypsy says Ryan is the one responsible for their dissolution of marriage -- therefore, she doesn't believe he's entitled to any cash payments from her.

Two of the parents of special needs kids who were allegedly brutalized by an aide at their school are speaking out ... and they say this whole thing could've been prevented.

As you know ... the footage that surfaced depicts Jones apparently hurting Jessica's son -- who's autistic and nonverbal -- and Brittany says her own son, who's also nonverbal, was also sustaining mysterious injuries that were inexplicable ... including a broken toe.

Todd Chrisley is facing another legal and financial setback while behind bars -- this time a federal jury ruling he defamed a Georgia Department of Revenue investigator.

According to court docs, a Georgia judge has ordered Todd to cough up $755,000 in compensatory and punitive damages and legal fees to Amy Doherty-Heinze after concluding the reality star launched a vicious social media crusade against her.

Doherty-Heinze decided to take Chrisley to court back in July 2021 ... claiming he falsely accused her of illegally snooping on a government program to pull info on his family. It was also claimed he "began a social media campaign against the GDOR and certain of its employees, contending that the investigation was illegal and improperly motivated."

Frankie Valli's son is accusing his other son of breaking into their father's home and threatening to harm both of them ... and now, he wants court-ordered protection for both and his famous father.
