Aqua -- the European dance-pop group behind the hit song "Barbie Girl" -- is breaking up almost 30 years after the release of their global hit.

Band members Lene Nystrøm, René Dif, and Søren Rasted took to social media to announce the end of a 3-decade era, writing ... "AQUA has been such a huge part of our lives, and together we’ve had the chance to experience more than we ever dared to dream of."

They thanked fans for their support and noted that they've got "nothing but love and gratitude" for their time in the group.

Hayden Panettiere is pulling back the curtain on some of the darkest chapters of her life ... including nearly dying during childbirth and battling postpartum depression after welcoming daughter Kaya with former fiancé Wladimir Klitschko.

The actress sat down Monday with CBS News' Gayle King to promote her new memoir, "This Is Me: A Reckoning" ... and spoke candidly about how what should've been one of the happiest times in her life spiraled into something far more painful.

Check out the clip ... Hayden says she had a "wonderful pregnancy" while dating Wladimir ... but things took a terrifying turn during delivery: "I had a really rough birth to the point where I almost didn't make it through."

NBA star Miles Bridges' ex-girlfriend, Mychelle Johnson, denied she showed up at one of his games with the intention to mess with his car -- days after being hit with a temporary restraining order, TMZ has learned. 

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, the Charlotte Hornets star's ex scoffed at his claims that she abandoned their kids with a nanny to drive out to his game. 

She admitted she attended his game on March 21, 2026, on Miles' birthday, because a friend of hers had an extra ticket. 

Love may be blind ... but it's not always meant to last. On Friday, Kwame Appiah and Chelsea Griffin announced they're calling it quits 4 years after tying the knot.

They exchanged "I dos" on Season 4 of "Love is Blind" ... but they've announced in a joint Instagram post that they're splitting, just after what would have been their fourth wedding anniversary.

In her statement, Chelsea said she was heartbroken over ending their marriage, writing ... "This is not the outcome I hoped for, and I entered this relationship with deep love, commitment, and the intention of building a lasting life together."

Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt have split after months of trying to work through relationship issues following the birth of their daughter, Scottie Rose.

A source tells PEOPLE the former couple is still "working on things," explaining, "They want one another to succeed and be happy." Their source added the relationship has had ups and downs before, noting, "There are issues, but they're trying to figure things out together."

TMZ confirmed last month the pair had been dealing with a rough patch while adjusting to life as first-time parents. Our sources told us at the time they were facing challenges behind the scenes, but were attempting to figure things out together as their relationship headed in an uncertain direction.

Despite the breakup, our sources told us Pete and Elsie remain completely focused on coparenting their baby girl.

Pete and Elsie first got together in March 2025. We broke the news of their pregnancy that July. Their daughter's name holds special meaning for Pete ... Scottie was named after his late father, FDNY firefighter Scott Matthew Davidson, who died responding to the 9/11 attacks.

James Kennedy's ex Ally Lewber is weighing in on his new baby bombshell ... and let's just say she's not exactly losing sleep over it.

Speaking on Friday's "Scheananigans With Scheana Shay" podcast, Ally admitted she was more shocked by how little she cared ... even revealing she had no clue James was dating anyone.

As for that Coachella sighting before TMZ broke the baby news last week? Ally said seeing James cozying up with another woman had her going, "Whoa" ... before quickly adding she wishes him the best.

Eric Swalwell and his wife Brittany Watts are reportedly living separately in the fallout from the sexual misconduct allegations that derailed the former congressman's political career.

Sources close to the couple told PEOPLE ... Brittany was completely blindsided by the accusations against Swalwell and had "no way" of knowing about the alleged behavior before it exploded publicly last month.

Brittany is now allegedly staying apart from Eric with their three children while trying to keep life as stable and private as possible for the kids. She was also recently spotted without her wedding ring.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Matthew’s ex, Heather Ammel, is asking a judge to shut down subpoenas issued by the former U.S. Senator from Arizona.

Here's Kandi Burruss talking about her divorce from ex-husband Todd Tucker ... and it's emotional.

The former 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star sat down with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and she started welling up when asked if she'd healed.

Kandi says that's definitely not the case ... she was with Todd for about 15 years, including 12 years as husband and wife, and it was only last year that she filed for divorce ... so it's going to take some time for her to heal.

Ariel Winter's back on the market ... turns out she quietly split from longtime boyfriend Luke Benward months ago!

The "Modern Family" star and Luke reportedly called it quits back in August 2025 after nearly six years together ... with sources telling PEOPLE they realized they were better off as friends.

No messy fallout here, though -- there's apparently still a ton of love between them -- so much so, they're still super close and even co-parent their dogs together.

Nick Lachey detailed his run-in with his ex-wife, Jessica Simpson, on an airplane.

Nick sat down with host Andy Cohen on Wednesday's episode of "Watch What Happens Live" ... and went into detail about bumping into Jessica on a flight from Los Angeles to Hawaii. Nick confirmed to Andy the random encounter with his pop star ex-wife was "strangely okay."

Check out the clip ... Nick casually explains to Andy that he and his family spent 6 and a half hours on the flight in the "vicinity" of Jessica and her family. Nick noted that "everyone was very, very cordial, very respectful.” 

We broke the story ... Nick and Jessica had an awkward encounter on a flight to Hawaii in April, where they both were sitting in first class. Jessica even switched seats to keep her distance, while both of their current partners were also on board.

Tasha K has been found in civil contempt in her ongoing legal war with Cardi B ... after a judge ruled she violated prior court orders barring her from making remarks about Cardi, Offset, and Stefon Diggs.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Tasha's now been ordered to stop violating the non-disparagement clause and remove the content mentioning Cardi, Offset, and Diggs at the center of the dispute.

The court also ordered Tasha to pay Cardi's attorneys fees racked up from going to court over this ... plus some sanctions against Tasha's bankruptcy lawyer.

Cardi B and Stefon Diggs might not be as chummy as they looked over Mother's Day weekend ... because we've obtained video of them engaged in an intense debate in Maryland.

The video -- taken Wednesday afternoon outside a coffee shop and a gym in Burtonsville, Maryland, near Washington, D.C. -- shows Cardi aggressively yelling at Diggs ... who is leaned back, arms crossed, against his sportscar.

We can't tell what she's yelling ... but, she gets so animated that another dude with her comes up and puts a hand on her in an attempt to calm her down. A source tells us they overheard Cardi say "That bitch is messy" -- unclear to whom she was referring.

Working with your ex would feel like a real-life "American Horror Story" to most people ... but Emma Roberts and Evan Peters seem to be handling it just fine.

The exes made a rare appearance together onstage at the Disney Upfront event in New York City on Tuesday to promote the new season of Ryan Murphy's flagship show.

They stood side-by-side along with more of the star-studded cast as they graced the stage to announce Paul Anthony Kelly would be joining the ensemble.

Mel Gibson was snapped in the middle of some PDA with a babe in Rome ... but TMZ has learned he's back in the U.S. -- and very single -- having just wrapped on a massive project.

Here's the deal ... the actor-director star and the Italian celeb Antonella Salvucci were snapped smooching in Rome ... which, of course, led fans to ask "What's going on, Romeo?"

Sources with knowledge tell TMZ ... the pictures were of Mel saying goodbye to a good friend ... he's single and has been back in the U.S. for about a month, having just wrapped "The Resurrection of the Christ: Part One" -- the follow-up to his 2004 blockbuster "The Passion of the Christ."

Katy Perry's popping bottles and poking fun at her own love life after finding out ex-boyfriend Josh Groban is officially off the market ... jokingly mourning the guy she once called "The One That Got Away."

The pop star hopped on TikTok Monday in a white bathrobe looking absolutely defeated ... pouring herself a giant glass of bubbly and fake-crying after news broke that Groban got engaged to British actress Natalie McQueen.

To really twist the knife, Katy set the video to her 2011 hit "The One That Got Away" ... the same song she later admitted was inspired by Groban after their brief 2009 romance.
