Breakups

Tom Sandoval is getting some sweet revenge on a recently shut down L.A. bakery ... for selling "Sandoval's A Liar" and "Team Ariana" cakes following his Scandoval controversy last year.

News that L.A.'s Sweet Lady Jane bakery was closing down came as a real treat for Tom ... after his "Vanderpump Rules" costar Billie Lee tagged him in the comments of their sad IG announcement, writing "karma!?" with a laughing emoji.

Tom went all in ... commenting everything he'd tried from the bakery had been super dry ... suggesting that others had finally caught on ... leading to their dwindling sales and subsequent closure.

He added their attempts to make money selling cakes negatively using his name hurt his feelings and pushed him over the edge ... and for that, good riddance.

Tom appeared to be in the minority, though, as the bakery was clearly a Hollywood staple ... with Blake Lively commenting she was heartbroken and Chrissy Teigen and Sophia Bush also making their devastation known.

Even though the cake shop hurt his ego, it was probably the least of his concerns ... as he found himself in the biggest celebrity controversy of 2023.

It was tagged #Scandoval by 'VPR' fans when TMZ first broke the story in March ... he'd been cheating on longtime GF Ariana Madix with costar Rachel Leviss ...

"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards continues to show she's into women amid rumors she's dating country singer Morgan Wade after separating from hubby Mauricio Umansky.

In a sneek peek of an upcoming 'RHOBH' episode, Kyle is sitting around a table having drinks with her castmates, including Dorit Kemsley and Crystal Kung Minkoff.

Seemingly out of the blue, Kyle asks if the other housewives would ever date a woman. While taking a sip from her glass, Dorit almost spits out her wine in shock over the question Kyle posed.

Minkoff throws the words back at Kyle, asking, "Would you?" Kyle thinks about it for a moment before nodding and giving a short, yet revealing response, "Yup."

In another scene from the trailer, Kyle seems anxiety-ridden over an obscure decision she must make, while staring at her phone with Morgan next to her. Biting her lip, Kyle says, "I'm so anxious. I really don't know if I can do it."

But, Morgan has Kyle's back, telling her, "You got it."

In February 2022, Kyle and Morgan met in person after first communicating over social media, quickly becoming friends and hanging out all the time. Speculation began to grow the two were an item as Kyle's marriage to Mauricio hit the skids.

Talk about drama. We'll have to see how all of this shakes out.

La estrella de "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" Kyle Richards sigue demostrando que le gustan las mujeres en medio de los rumores de que está saliendo con la cantante de country Morgan Wade después de separarse de su marido Mauricio Umansky.

En un breve clip de avance de los nuevos episodios de 'RHOBH', Kyle está sentada alrededor de una mesa tomando unas copas con sus compañeras de reparto, entre ellas Dorit Kemsley y Crystal Kung Minkoff.

Aparentemente de la nada, Kyle pregunta si las otras amas de casa saldrían alguna vez con una mujer. Mientras tomaba un sorbo de su copa, Dorit casi escupió su vino en estado de shock por la pregunta que Kyle planteó.

Minkoff le devuelve las palabras a Kyle y le pregunta: "¿Lo harías?". Kyle se lo piensa un momento antes de asentir y dar una respuesta corta pero reveladora: "Sip".

En otra escena del tráiler, Kyle parece angustiada por una oscura decisión que debe tomar, mientras mira fijamente su teléfono con Morgan a su lado. Mordiéndose el labio, Kyle dice: "Estoy tan ansiosa. Realmente no sé si puedo hacerlo".

Pero, Morgan cubre la espalda de Kyle, diciéndole: "Tú puedes".

En febrero de 2022, Kyle y Morgan se conocieron en persona después de comunicarse por primera vez a través de las redes sociales, convirtiéndose rápidamente en amigas y pasando mucho tiempo juntas. La especulación de que las dos eran algo más comenzó a crecer cuando el matrimonio de Kyle y Mauricio empezó a tambalear.

Hablando de drama. Habrá que ver cómo acaba todo esto.

Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny may have called it quits on their relationship before the end of 2023, but they rang in 2024 together with a crew of close pals ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us the two remain close -- despite their recent breakup -- and have a group of mutual friends. The crew -- including Justin and Hailey Bieber -- were all vacationing together near Barbados, taking in New Year's Eve festivities.

In fact, in a clip of NYE fireworks posted by one of Kendall's pals, you hear Bad Bunny in the background wish everyone, "Feliz Año Nuevo!"

While the recent reunion may raise some eyebrows, we're told the two aren't officially back together, not yet at least, we're told the trip happened because of mutual friends ... there's nothing romantic.

It was a whirlwind romance for Kendall and the music superstar, spotted back in February leaving a double date with Justin and Hailey. Things heated up a month later when they were seen sharing a kiss and hug after sushi with her sis, Kylie Jenner.

In April, TMZ obtained photos of the two on a solo horseback riding date ... indicating things had gotten really serious between the two.

By the middle of the year, they were officially official -- cuddling up together at a Drake show, sitting front row at the Gucci show, doing a Gucci campaign together and hitting up the 'SNL' after-party following BB's gig on the show.

However, come late October, fans started to notice the two hadn't been spotted together in a while and questioned if things had fallen apart.

Fast forward to last month, and news broke of the couple's reported split.

Kendall Jenner y Bad Bunny pueden haber puesto fin a su relación antes de que terminara el 2023, pero empezaron el 2024 juntos y con un grupo de amigos cercanos, según ha averiguado TMZ.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo nos dicen que los dos siguen siendo cercanos -a pesar de su reciente ruptura- y tienen un grupo de amigos en común. El equipo -que incluye a Justin y Hailey Bieber- se fue de vacaciones juntos cerca de Barbados, para celebrar las festividades de Año Nuevo.

De hecho, en un clip de Año Nuevo, con fuegos artificiales, publicado por uno de los amigos de Kendall, se escucha a Bad Bunny de fondo desear a todos: "¡Feliz Año Nuevo!"

Aunque el reciente encuentro puede levantar sospechas en algunos, nos dicen que los dos no están oficialmente juntos de nuevo, o no todavía por lo menos. Nos dicen que el viaje ocurrió debido a estos amigos en común y que no hay nada romántico.

Fue un romance relámpago el de Kendall con la superestrella de la música, que se remonta a febrero, cuando salieron en una cita doble con Justin y Hailey. Las cosas se calentaron un mes más tarde, cuando fueron vistos compartiendo un beso y un abrazo después de comer sushi con Kylie Jenner.

En abril, TMZ obtuvo fotos de los dos andando a caballo en solitario, lo que indicaba que las cosas se habían puesto muy serias entre los dos.

A mediados de año, eran oficialmente oficial. Los vimos acurrucados juntos en un show de Drake, sentados en primera fila en el show de Gucci, haciendo una campaña de Gucci juntos y participando en la afterparty SNL después de la actuación de BB en el show.

Sin embargo, a finales de octubre, los fans empezaron a notar que no habían sido vistos juntos en un tiempo y se preguntaron si las cosas habían terminado.

A principios de este mes se supo que la pareja se había separado.

Lil Nas X dice que ni siquiera un escándalo de Dave Chappelle puede interrumpir su nueva "era cristiana" y suena como si quisiera que el comediante cambiara la rutina.

El miércoles, Lil se refirió al último especial de Netflix de Chapelle, donde cuenta una historia que hace alusión a su video "Montero".

El video muestra al rapero viajando al infierno para darle a Satanás un lapdance, pero Dave dijo que no tenía ni idea de quién era el artista de "Old Town Road" en ese momento y se rió de la decisión de Lil Nas X de empujar los límites sexuales en su base de fans más jóven.

Lil argumenta que "Montero" es cosa del pasado y cualquiera que se aferre a esa versión de él está viviendo en el pasado.

Para demostrarlo, anunció que su nuevo single y video llegará la próxima semana y adelantó una ilustración de él vestido como un sacerdote con la leyenda, "En el nombre del Padre, del Hijo, y del Espíritu Santo, Amén".

Lil Nas X says not even a Dave Chappelle brouhaha can disrupt his newfound "Christian era" of his music career -- and sounds like he wants the comedian to get a new routine.

On Wednesday, LNX took exception to Dave's bit about him on his latest Netflix special "The Dreamer" ... where DC tells a story about LNX having his hopes set on recruiting Chappelle for his controversial 2021 "Montero" video.

The video infamously depicted LNX traveling to Hell to give Satan a lapdance -- but Dave said he had no idea who the "Old Town Road" artist was at the time ... and laughed at LNX's decision to push sexual boundaries onto his youthful fanbase.

LNX is now arguing that "Montero" is old news and anyone holding on to that version of him is living in the past.

To prove it, LNX announced his new single/video coming next week and previewed the holier than thou artwork ... an illustration of him dressed as a priest with the caption, "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen."

Bachelor Nation's track record of successful couples continues to dwindle ... with 'Bachelorette' star Rachel Lindsay's husband Bryan Abasolo pulling the plug on their marriage.

Bryan beelined it to court Tuesday and filed for divorce after 4 years of marriage ... according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ.

In the docs, Bryan lists their date of separation as Dec. 31, 2023 ... and he's citing the boilerplate "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for their split.

Bryan, a chiropractor, is requesting spousal support. They did not have any children together.

Rachel's estranged husband also shared an official statement Tuesday ... saying "loving himself and his partner meant he had to let go and start anew."

The pair fell for each other on season 13 of "The Bachelorette" in 2017 ... when Rachel made history as the first Black person to lead an ABC reality dating show.

Rachel and Bryan got engaged during the finale ... then tied the knot in August 2019 during a ceremony in Mexico.

In terms of 'Bachelor' years, Rachel and Bryan made it last for a while ... though Rachel has previously mentioned their difficulties navigating their relationship in the public eye.

Rachel went on fellow "Bachelorette" Kaitlyn Bristowe's "Off the Vine" podcast last year, explaining they both felt constant pressure showing fans how they were both doing.

Cardi B y Offset comenzaron el año nuevo juntos, pero ella dice que eso no significa necesariamente que hayan vuelto como pareja.

La pareja distanciada apareció en 2024 en un club de striptease en Miami, arrojando dinero y bailando y todo está en video.

Cardi dice que la reunión de NYE no significa que se hayan besado, hecho las paces ni mucho menos.

De hecho, Cardi tiene un mensaje para la gente que piensa que ella está de vuelta con Offset: "no estamos juntos... estamos juntos cuando yo lo digo, no cuando tú lo PIENSAS".

Cardi y Offset estuvieron trabajando en Miami, cada uno tenía conciertos en el Fontainebleau Miami Beach, haciendo este encuentro bastante fácil.

Cardi y Offset pasaron tiempo juntos en medio de su ruptura y luego ella negó que estuvieran envueltos en un romance, sin embargo, las reuniones se están convirtiendo en algo habitual... sucedió durante la Navidad y una vez más después de que fueron vistos en Nueva York.

Cardi también dijo que dejará la energía tóxica en 2023 y está claro que Offset no entra en esa categoría.

2:51 PM PT -- Cardi B says she and Offset banged on NYE ... but again denies they are back together.

In a social media post, Cardi reveals she had sex with her estranged husband but says they are still working on their issues, going to therapy and aren't officially ending their split.

Cardi B and Offset started off the new year together ... but she says that doesn't necessarily mean they are together again.

The estranged couple rang in 2024 at a strip club in Miami, throwing money around and dancing ... and it's all on video.

But Cardi says the NYE hangout -- which was a group hang -- isn't a sign they've kissed and made up ... far from it.

In fact, Cardi has a message for folks thinking she's back with Offset ... "we not together.. we together when I say so not when you THINK so."

Thing is ... Cardi and Offset were both in Miami for work ... they each had NYE gigs at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach - Offset performed at LIV and Cardi poolside - making this rendezvous pretty easy.

Cardi and Offset spending time together amid their split and then her denying they're back together is quickly becoming a thing ... it happened during Christmas and once again after they were spotted in NYC.

CB also said she's leaving toxic energy in 2023 ... and it's clear Offset doesn't fall in that category.

It will be interesting to see if Cardi and Offset do in fact patch things up again ... stay tuned.

Cardi B seems a little annoyed by her fans ... many of whom don't believe her when she says she's moving on -- presumably from Offset.

Cardi tweeted, "I must be a lil toxic cuz I enjoyed cursing ya out today… but we not taking that into 2024. Now have a good day. No make it a bad day!"

It's actually mild compared to the video she posted on social, telling her legion of fans to "shut the f*** up" about her relationship status.

Fans started questioning her after Cardi and Offset were seen together on Xmas day ... unfair, because they spent it with the kids, and that doesn't mean she's backing down.

Cardi said as much, when she liked a post essentially saying people were making up stories about a reconciliation.

Thing is ... AFTER Xmas, they were spotted in the same store in NYC, which led some fans to double down, suggesting Cardi was fully back with her hubby.

10:07 AM PT -- Kathy didn't wait long to respond to the news breaking, writing on X, "Well...s***. This sucks."

Kathy Griffin doesn't seem too nostalgic about anniversaries ... because she's decided to end her marriage, just as she and Randy Bick would have celebrated their 4th.

Kathy filed divorce docs Thursday in L.A. County, citing irreconcilable differences. According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, she and Randy have a prenup ... which she wants the court to enforce. Translation: no need for the judge to grant spousal support.

Randy, who's a marketing exec, and Kathy didn't have any kids together ... so, no issues with child support either.

Whatever went wrong, the breaking point was recent -- in the divorce petition, she lists Dec. 22 as their date of separation.

The soon-to-be exes tied the knot in a surprise wedding on New Year's Day 2020, and Lily Tomlin officiated the ceremony. Although they wed in the middle of lockdown, you can't really call it a pandemic marriage.

Kathy and Randy had been together for a long time before that -- they started dating in 2011, broke up in 2018 and then got back together the next year. This will be her second divorce.

Coincidentally, Kathy's going back on the road in 2024 ... her new standup show is called "My Life on the PTSD-List."

10:07 AM PT -- Kathy no esperó mucho para responder a la noticia, escribiendo en X, "Bueno...mi***. Esto apesta".

Kathy Griffin no parece muy nostálgica con los aniversarios porque ha decidido poner fin a su matrimonio, justo cuando ella y Randy Bick habrían celebrado su cuarto.

Kathy presentó los documentos de divorcio el jueves en el condado de Los Ángeles, alegando diferencias irreconciliables. Según los documentos obtenidos por TMZ, ella y Randy tienen un acuerdo prenupcial que ella quiere que el tribunal haga cumplir. Traducción: no hay necesidad de que el juez conceda manutención conyugal.

Randy, que es un ejecutivo de marketing, y Kathy no tenían hijos juntos, por lo que no hay problemas con la manutención de los hijos tampoco.

Lo que haya sido que salió el mal, sabemos que el punto de quiebre es reciente. En la petición de divorcio, ella data el 22 de diciembre como la fecha de su separación.

Los que pronto serán ex se casaron por sorpresa el día de Año Nuevo de 2020 y Lily Tomlin ofició la ceremonia. Aunque se casaron en pleno encierro, no se puede decir que fuera un matrimonio pandémico.

Kathy y Randy llevaban mucho tiempo juntos antes: empezaron a salir en 2011, rompieron en 2018 y volvieron a estar juntos al año siguiente. Este sería su segundo divorcio.

Remy Ma and Papoose's marriage is a done deal ... if new audio from Remy's alleged new lover/battle rap protege is to be believed!!!

A YouTube blog posted explosive 16-minute audio of Eazy The Block Captain -- the guy suspected of intercepting Pap and Remy's union -- spilling the beans to a "friend" regarding his friction with Pap.

Throughout the convo, Eazy says it was Remy who told him to keep their affair tight-lipped ... Pap apparently confronted him -- with a fist to the face!!!

Eazy goes on to vent about wanting to get a rematch with Pap because his punches don't hurt and how Remy has been a frequent visitor at his house for months -- after the rumors first went public during a battle rap event.

Rapper Geechi Gotti cleverly put Remy's affair with Eazy on blast with his lyrics -- while battling him.

Eazy goes on to suggest he's prepared to step aside if Pap and Remy should work out and went on to complain about how the situation has shed a negative light on the battle rap culture.

Fans still haven't been happy with Remy and bombarded her on social media with things she might say to female rap rivals on tracks. 🙈

Pap and Remy got hitched back in 2008 while she was incarcerated and went on to spend years on VH1 as a reality star couple.

Cardi B ha dejado muy claro que no han vuelto a estar juntos con Offset después de su desagradable ruptura, aunque todavía están pasando mucho tiempo juntos.

Los raperos estuvieron en Nueva York el jueves y parece que disfrutando de la compañía del otro durante todo el día, a pesar de estar en longitudes estratégicamente diferentes para no ser fotografiados juntos. Aunque parece que un fan estropeó su juego.

Como se puede ver en esta foto, la misma mujer está posando primero con Cardi y luego con Offset, señalando que su ubicación es la misma tienda.

Cardi está luciendo una sudadera con capucha de color rosa y largas uñas puntiagudas de color rojo, el mismo aspecto que tenía en una de las historias de Instagram que publicó más tarde, donde la vemos untando con mantequilla el pan en el famoso restaurante Torrisi.

Para echar más leña al fuego, Offset estaba usando la misma sudadera con capucha de la selfie de temprano cuando posó para otro fan en las calles de la Gran Manzana.

A pesar de los intentos por mantener su salida de bajo perfil, Cardi B ya nos hizo saber que no hay nada que ver aquí, gente...

A principios de esta semana, le gustó un meme de "Real Housewives of Atlanta" en su cuenta de X que avergonzaba a la gente que inventaba historias falsas sobre ella y Offset y que se han reconciliado románticamente.

La especulación comenzó después de que pasaron la Navidad juntos por el bien de sus hijos y de que fueran a ver a Travis Scott en Nueva Jersey al día siguiente.

Cardi B's made it crystal clear she's not back together with Offset following their nasty split ... though they're still spending an awful lot of time together.

They were out and about in NYC Thursday -- and it looks like they were enjoying each other's company all day long ... despite going to strategic lengths not to be pictured together -- though it looks like a fan gave their game away.

As you can see ... the same woman poses in a snap with Cardi and then one with Offset -- pinpointing their location at the same store.

You can see, Cardi's sporting a pink hoodie and long red pointed nails ... and the same look makes an appearance on her IG Stories later, as she butters bread at the city's famous Torrisi restaurant.

To add fuel to the fire ... Offset's in the same emoji hoodie from the fan selfie earlier ... posing for another fan snap on the Big Apple streets.

Despite attempts to keep their hang-out session low-key, Cardi's already let us know there's nothing to see here, folks ....

Earlier this week, she liked a "Real Housewives of Atlanta" meme on her X feed ... that shamed people making up fake stories about her and Offset romantically reconciling.

The speculation began after they spent Christmas together for the sake of their kids ... and took them to see Travis Scott in NJ the next day.
