Breathe a sigh of relief, WNBA fans -- there will be no lockout this season ... with players reaching a deal with league officials on a new collective bargaining agreement after months of negotiations.

Both sides sealed things early Wednesday morning with a champagne toast ... and according to Seattle Storm star and WNBPA president, Nneka Ogwumike, the agreement finally gives the ladies a "meaningful share of league revenue."

"It strengthens housing and retirement," Ogwumike told Front Office Sports, "and expands resources for family planning and parental leave. It redefines what it means to be a professional in this league."

Dakota Mortensen was waving red flags to ABC about his baby mama, Taylor Frankie Paul, ahead of her time on "The Bachelorette" ... TMZ has learned.

Two sources in Taylor's circle tell us Dakota had conversations with 'Bachelorette' producers before she started filming to warn them about her behavior and past abuse ... but production pressed forward.

In fact, we're told producers were even interested in having Dakota appear on her season in some capacity ... though we hear he didn't end up filming. And that's not all.

Zendaya seems bent on keeping us all in suspense on whether she's married to Tom Holland.

On Tuesday night, the actress attended the Los Angeles premiere for her new flick, "The Drama," and was spotted on the red carpet wearing what appeared to be a wedding band. But ... it's just another hint Zendaya may have tied the knot with Tom ... still no verbal confirmation from the lovebirds. 

At the premiere, Zendaya was also decked out in a familiar white Vivienne Westwood gown -- the same one she wore to the 2015 Oscars. She told Variety she got the idea to wear the dress to the premiere after consulting with her longtime stylist, Law Roach, believing "something old" is still "something new."

You may recall ... Roach started all the Zendaya-Tom marriage rumors earlier this month after he told an "Access Hollywood" reporter at the 2026 Actor Awards that everyone had already missed the couple's wedding ceremony.

"The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" cast is drawing a firm line with Taylor Frankie Paul -- while still firmly in her corner and pushing for her to get help ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the entire cast believes Taylor isn't in a good place mentally, and they want her to seek help before anything else moves forward with filming. We're told the cast isn't icing her out ... far from it.

Our sources say they're all on her side and rooting for her to work through her issues, but feel production and Hulu haven't done enough to push her in that direction. We're told the cast remains fed up with what they see as production repeatedly sweeping Taylor's alleged abuse issues under the rug.

Rebecca Gayheart and her daughters understand Eric Dane's ex-girlfriends are grieving his loss -- and they don't want to diminish anyone's feelings -- but they want the facts straight about his final days.

TMZ previously reported ... Eric was single for a while after he became ill ... and on his deathbed, it was just Rebecca and his two teen girls.

A source close to the family tells TMZ ... they "feel a deep responsibility to ensure that his story and memory remain accurate" about who was "present until the very last chapter of his life."

Dwight Howard's wife Amber Howard claims he pulled the rug out from under her ... allegedly canceling a TV show the couple was set to star in -- which she says would've scored her a massive payday.

In new body cam footage -- obtained by TMZ -- Amber vents to responding officers about the troubles in her relationship with the former NBA star. Moments earlier, she had called police claiming Dwight locked her out of their home following an argument ... while Dwight told officers she's gone "berserk."

Amber tells cops she has become financially dependent on Dwight after she says he told her he didn't want her appearing on the reality show she was on for four years -- presumably "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" -- and she claims he uses her financial dependence on him as leverage in their relationship ... but that's not all.

Taylor Frankie Paul is speaking out for the first time since being ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation following allegations of physical violence.

Taylor broke her silence Tuesday during a press junket for the upcoming season of "The Bachelorette."

The reality TV star, who is also part of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" cast, told PEOPLE her heart hurts seeing the negative headlines -- and the timing, which coincides with the 'Bachelorette' premiere, sucks.

The B-52s are ripping Texas GOP Senator John Cornyn for using their famous song to attack his political opponent.

Cornyn's campaign dropped a political attack ad Tuesday using AI-generated content to go after Texas attorney general Ken Paxton and his sex scandal ... the 80-second ad is a parody of the B-52s' hit, "Love Shack."

In a statement to TMZ, the band says ... "Today we learned that our song 'Love Shack' is being used without our approval for a political attack between two politicians in the beautiful state of Texas. We do not endorse either candidate. We have already formally demanded the song immediately cease to be used in this tasteless and illegal way."

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky aren't taking any chances after the terrifying shooting at their Los Angeles home ... stepping out in NYC looking calm but heavily guarded.

This marks the first time they've been seen together since the scary incident last Sunday. As you know, things got intense when Rihanna, A$AP and their kids were inside their L.A. home when an assailant opened fire, sending multiple rounds into the property.

Sources connected to the series tell TMZ ... Martha recently filmed a cameo for season 16, appearing alongside her longtime makeup artist, Daisy Toye. We're told the shoot went down within the last couple of weeks, and the cameo is already in the can.

Daisy, one of the newest additions to the cast, has worked closely with Martha for years ... making the crossover a natural fit.

Taylor Frankie Paul is super comfortable in front of the camera, even when it's snapping a mug shot ... and only TMZ has the never-before-seen police portrait from her 2023 assault case.

The mug shot was snapped after the 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' star's February '23 arrest in Utah for allegedly getting violent with her then-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen ... and the alleged fight played out in front of one of her kids.

As you can see, TFP is staring straight into the camera with her pale blue eyes ... and there's good reason for her to look that shocked, because we've learned she's still dealing with the case.

Maxx Crosby pulled back the curtain on one of the wildest NFL offseason twists in recent memory … and according to the Raiders superstar, things in Baltimore got real weird, real fast before the Ravens abruptly pulled the plug.

Crosby spilled all the tea on his podcast, “The Rush with Maxx Crosby,” detailing a chaotic visit to the Ravens’ facility that left him confused, stressed -- and eventually flying back home with no deal.

According to Crosby, the red flags popped up immediately … starting with the fact Ravens GM Eric DeCosta was basically MIA for the five hours Crosby was at the facility.

“I didn’t see him one time,” Crosby said. “I’m like, ‘Where’s Eric at?’ He just made the trade!”
