Breakups

Mel B and Stephen Belafonte have settled the domestic violence portion of their nasty divorce.

We're told the 2 have reached an agreement and Mel has withdrawn her domestic violence restraining order against Stephen.

The implication ... it opens the door for Stephen to see his 6-year-old daughter Madison.

We're also told Mel B and Stephen settled a portion of their property division.

There has been no resolution of the Lorraine Gilles matter -- she's the former nanny who claims Mel B pressured her into having 3-ways with the couple. However, we're told they're close to reaching a resolution.

Tamar Braxton's estranged husband, Vincent Herbert, is stunned by his mother-in-law's strong insinuation he's an abusive man capable of killing her daughter ... and he totally denies it.

A source close to Vincent tells TMZ ... he has no idea why Evelyn Braxton told us she's fearful his impending divorce from Tamar could get deadly because he's no abuser -- he loves Tamar and would never hurt her.

We're told Vincent's upset over Evelyn's comments because he feels this type of story could negatively affect their 4-year-old son when he's older. Our source says Vince doesn't want beef with Evelyn ... he says he's going to pray for her.

Our source says Herbert still plans to fight to win Tamar back and reconcile their marriage despite what her family wants ... and be a good dad in the process.

Laurence Fishburne and Gina Torres hashed out a divorce deal before he went to court to make it official ... TMZ has learned.

Laurence filed divorce docs and they confirmed what TMZ reported Friday -- Laurence and the "Suits" star likely spent the last year divvying up assets. They announced their split last September but list October 14, 2016 as the date of separation.

In docs obtained by TMZ ... Laurence says, "the parties have entered into an agreement in disposition of property which will be submitted for approval" ... as in waiting for the judge to sign off on it.

Laurence cites irreconcilable differences for why he wants out. They were married on September 22, 2002. He checked the boxes for joint legal and physical custody of their 10-year-old daughter, Delilah, ... and wants to block the judge from giving either of them spousal support.

Evelyn Braxton just worried out loud her daughter's estranged husband, Vincent Herbert, is capable of killing Tamar.

Tamar's mom didn't hold back at LAX Friday ... sending a loud and clear message to Vince to keep his hands off her child. Evelyn is genuinely fearful that the impending divorce between Tamar and Vince could get deadly and desperately wants him to stay away from her.

Former NFL star Kerry Rhodes and actress Nicky Whelan have called it quits in their marriage ... after less than 6 months!!!

The 2 filed divorce paperwork Wednesday together ... and it looks like it should be a pretty smooth process. They both gave up their right for spousal support and say they have no community assets together.

Kerry and Nicky were wed on April 14, 2017 and list their date of separation as October 1. The Australian actress wants her last name back, too.

Rhodes last played for the Arizona Cardinals in 2012 ... and dabbled in acting himself after leaving football.

"Black-ish" star Laurence Fishburne has filed to end his marriage to Gina Torres ... TMZ has learned.

The couple split a year ago but took no action to pull the plug on the marriage until Thursday.

When they announced the split in September, Gina said, "With heavy hearts, Laurence and I quietly separated and began the dissolution of our marriage in the early fall of last year," adding, "There are no bad guys here. Only a love story with a different ending than either one of us had expected."

Judging from the statement, it would seem they spent the last year dividing assets. Celebrities often lay the groundwork before filing for divorce, so the case isn't front and center in the legal system for very long.

The couple has one daughter, 10-year-old Delilah.

Tamar Braxton will not be divorcing Vincent Herbert, after all, IF he gets his way ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to Vince tell us he's hoping he and Tamar can work things out and save their marriage. It'll be an uphill battle, for sure ... remember she's the one who filed for divorce last week.

We're told Vince is willing to do everything in his power to change her mind, including counseling to discussing their marriage and other issues stemming from her firing from "The Real."

Vince has been telling friends he doesn't want to discuss custody arrangements for their son -- as she requested -- because he's confident things will work out.

Jeremy Meeks is sitting on a massive pile of cash ... at least according to his estranged wife, who's demanding her fair share.

Melissa Meeks is declaring her income and estimating Jeremy's as part of their divorce. In the docs, obtained by TMZ, she says she's an RN in the Bay Area ... making an average of $10k each month, with expenses around $11k monthly.

On the other hand, Melissa says Jeremy is pulling down $1 million each month. She says that number is based on modeling contracts, but it's unclear if she's actually seen any of Jeremy's paperwork.

Of course, Jeremy became a thing in the modeling world immediately after his prison release -- and he's now dating heiress Chloe Green.

Melissa's demanding spousal and child support. Her point here -- she's in the red, while he's rolling in green ... and Green.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's wife, Maria Shriver, filed for divorce more than 6 years ago, but guess what -- they're still not divorced.

Harvey interviewed Arnold for "OBJECTified" and raised the issue of divorce. Maria filed on July 1, 2011, several months after the story broke that Arnold had fathered a baby with the couple's housekeeper.

At the time she filed, two of their kids -- Patrick and Christopher -- were both minors. They're both adults now so custody is not an issue.

As we reported, the couple does not have a prenup and they amassed a $400 million fortune during their 25-year marriage. We're told for years, their business people have worked on how the property should be split ... yet the divorce is stalled.

Sources say Maria would like the divorce to become final, but Arnold is not taking the necessary steps to end the marriage. But a source connected with Arnold tells TMZ, "Arnold is not standing in the way of the divorce. He's wants the divorce to become final in a way that is both sensitive to Maria and their kids."

"OBJECTified" with Arnold airs Sunday at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT, and again at 11 PM ET/8 PM PT, on FOX News Channel.

The Weeknd is the one who ended his relationship with Selena Gomez -- not vice versa -- and it had nothing to do with Justin Bieber ... TMZ has learned.

Multiple sources connected to The Weeknd and Selena tell us, their relationship had been fizzling out since Summer. They had rarely seen each other because of his touring schedule and her shooting schedule. They started talking less frequently on the phone.

We're told Abel enjoyed being single before he met Selena and felt unfairly tied down in a relationship that had lost its passion. Our sources say several weeks ago Abel called Selena, explained how the relationship was no longer working for him and then ended it.

Our sources say the 2 remain friendly and have even talked several times since the breakup.

As for Justin Bieber ... we're told he was not a factor in the breakup. Justin's apparent reignited relationship with Selena didn't start until after she and The Weeknd went their separate ways.

As for Abel ... he's not sulking. Check out our video shot Monday night. He's a quick rebounder.

Some of Chris Pratt's best characters have become awesome Halloween costumes ... so you'd think he'd whip one up for some incognito trick-or-treating with his kid.

But nope ... Chris went the normal dad route -- v-neck sweater -- to take 5-year-old Jack candy hopping Tuesday night in West Hollywood. Jack opted for Captain America 'cause ... he's gotta be sick of Star-Lord references, right?

Despite the split from Anna Faris this summer, both parents have kept Jack their priority.

We'd say this is divorce done right -- but neither has filed yet.

The Weeknd doesn't seem to be experiencing any post-breakup blues ... in fact, it looks like he's having a damn good time being a single guy.

Abel was out Monday night in a Toronto nightclub at a launch party for 21 Savage, Offset and Metro Boomin's new album, "Without Warning" -- and he was openly smiling and grinding up on a mystery girl on the dance floor.

Selena Gomez became the cool new kid on the block ... 'cause she went for a bike ride and conquered a school yard.

Selena was hangin' out with a bunch of L.A. school kids Monday after a bike ride with a pal ... and rather than shy away, she embraced the attention.

Selena posed with the posse as they chaotically flocked around her. She kept her cool, though ... even putting up some shots.

Actor Scott Grimes may get laughs on "The Orville," but there's nothing comedic about his wife's new project -- she's filing for divorce ... TMZ has learned.

Megan Grimes filed legal divorce docs Friday after 5 years and 10 months of marriage. She's requesting spousal support and lists the date of separation as Oct. 27 ... the same day she filed.

Scott's also the voice of Steve Smith on FOX's "American Dad" ... and he was also on "Party of Five" as well as the HBO series, "Band of Brothers."

The couple has no children together -- but Scott has 2 from a previous marriage.

Selena Gomez and The Weeknd aren't gonna be getting cute together in public anymore -- 'cause they've broken up ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the situation tell us Selena and Abel split recently -- this after publicly dating for a little more than 10 months. We broke the story ... the couple was first seen making out in public back in January.

It's been a fun ride with these two -- we've seen them put on the ultimate PDA in just about every damn setting you could imagine ... from a Dave & Buster's date to a tour of the Galleria dell'Accademia in Italy, plus hand-holding at Coachella ... and everything else in between.

As we reported ... Selena received a kidney from her BFF this summer, and The Weeknd was around to support her at the time. But it's no secret now ... Selena and Justin have been spending A LOT of time together recently, sans Abel. People first reported the split.

Just like before ... the heart wants what it wants. Or doesn't.

Jeremy Meeks is an absentee father whose success as the so-called "Hot Felon" went straight to his head ... so claims his estranged wife.

Melissa Meeks filed docs demanding child and spousal support, as well as sole legal and physical custody ... claiming Jeremy sees their 7-year-old son "maybe 2 days a month."

In docs obtained by TMZ, Melissa says Jeremy "basically lives as a playboy with a rich girlfriend" ... TopShop heir Chloe Green. Melissa claims he drives a $150k car and has lots of jewelry now.

She doesn't list how much she wants in support because "I am not yet sure of his income, but I am sure it is more than mine."

She says Jeremy's "success went to his head and he left us." As we reported ... he filed docs back in July to separate from Melissa after 8 years. He filed for divorce in October.
