Breakups

Now that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's divorce is officially underway, we know exactly when they separated -- and, what they looked like in the immediate aftermath.

In the docs filed by J Lo on the second anniversary of their luxurious Georgia wedding, she listed the date of separation as April 26, 2024 -- a day when photogs caught both stars out and about looking a little worse for wear.

JL was in New York on the day ... rocking an oversized sweater and jeans while walking swiftly to her car, no chatting or smiling with any of her entourage here.

"Love Island USA" stars Kendall Washington and Nicole Jacky are officially over -- just one day after their fiery reunion showed how much they were clashing post-villa!

Nicole spilled the tea on her IG Stories Tuesday ... saying it was Kendall who hit her up that day and pulled the trigger on their breakup -- adding she's trying to wrap her head around it and respect his decision, but it's been a tough pill to swallow.

Kendall, on his end, posted he and Nicole had reached a point where it just wasn't healthy to keep going ... and asked for haters to back off and give them space to focus on their mental health.

The confusion surrounding the paternity of Gypsy Rose Blanchard's unborn baby won't be cleared up any time soon ... TMZ has learned her ex, Ryan Anderson, has decided to wait on taking a DNA test.

We're told the paternity test before the baby is born can cost anywhere between $500 to $2,000 -- whereas a post-birth test is in the $150 to $200 range.

Barry Keoghan is making it clear the gossip about him splitting from GF Sabrina Carpenter is a bunch of "Nonsense" ... by showing his lady some love online.

Fans began speculating about the couple's relationship after an online report Friday claiming they'd called it quits. However, the Irish actor subtly shut down the rumor by taking to Instagram and hitting "like" on the pop star's latest sultry upload ... where she wore a baby-blue crop top, underwear, garter and heels.

Alongside the image, SC promoted her upcoming album, "Short n’ Sweet" ... which Sabrina revealed will also include a bonus track on the vinyl edition.

Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague have called it quits ... with the boxer and influencer announcing they have officially ended their relationship.

MMH first shared the bombshell news on Wednesday ... saying, "Never in a million years did I think I'd ever have to write this. After five years of being together I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way."

Fury and Hague famously met on Season 5 of "Love Island" in 2019 ... and welcomed a child, Bambi, back in January 2023.

Jaden Smith appears to be done with GF Sab Zada, because he's on a yacht overseas with a smoking hot IG model ... and things are looking passionate between them.

Will Smith's son is in Ibiza right now with an influencer named Khleopatre ... and Jaden's all over her, grabbing her booty and sucking face -- in the water, on the deck, pretty much everywhere.

Jaden and Khleopatre certainly don't look like this is a first date -- they seem very comfortable with each other, smiling, laughing and having a great time. If it is a first date ... it's the best one ever!

Joshua Malina's love story with wife Melissa Merwin has come to an end ... as the mother of his children has filed for divorce, TMZ has learned.

In new court documents obtained by TMZ ... Melissa filed to end her nearly 28-year marriage to "The West Wing" star, who she married back in December 1996. The docs are from Melissa's side ... so, this is her perspective on the whole breakup.

In the docs, Melissa cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for her split from the actor ... though she did not list a date of separation.

Jennifer Lopez has returned to L.A. after her Hamptons summer escape ... and instead of mending fences with Ben Affleck, she’s channeling her energy into looking at real estate.

The singer showed up ring-free with her daughter Emme to check out a killer $68 million pad in Bev Hills over the weekend -- even though she's been trying to sell her own $68M marital pad in the same area for about a month.

No surprise J. Lo’s got cash to burn ... and she seemed in great spirits as she kicked off her day with Emme going out on a coffee run before checking out the ultra-swanky 5-bed, 6.5-bath mansion.

Things are not amicable between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck ... the lines of communication are closed and it's making it difficult to hammer out a divorce agreement.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … J Lo and Ben are not speaking to one another -- in person or over the phone -- and it's really slowing down their divorce.

Ben and Jen's icy relationship is really the only thing preventing this from being a quickie divorce ... we're told they have a prenup and the only asset they have to divide is their Beverly Hills mansion, which is on the market.

Wrestling star Mercedes Moné -- formerly known as Sasha Banks -- has filed for divorce from her husband, Sarath Ton ... TMZ Sports has confirmed.

Reasons for the split were not immediately known.

Halle says she and Olivier agreed to co-parenting therapy to resolve issues related to raising their 10-year-old son Maceo -- but, she says he recently decided to delay the therapy sessions until September so he can take the "summer off" ... without first clearing things with her or the therapist.

She says he bailed on July sessions to travel to France and wants to skip August therapy because his brother will be visiting ... but Halle wants the judge to force him to stick to the schedule laid out in their agreement, which includes therapy sessions and other requirements.

Britney Spears might be doing a classic relationship backslide ... 'cause she's hanging out with her ex Paul Soliz -- just weeks after saying she's washing her hands of the guy.

The pop star hit up the world-famous SoHo House in Malibu Tuesday, where she appeared to enjoy an outing with Paul and his family. She attempted to keep a low profile, as she wore an oversized sunhat and sunglasses for the visit ... but stood out like a sore thumb.

Paul and Britney kept their distance outside the celebrity hotspot ... sticking to opposite sides of the sidewalk. In fact, no sign of PDA was seen between the on-again, off-again couple -- so technically, this could well just be a friendly outing.

Ben Affleck secured his new digs at the same time Jennifer Lopez celebrated a milestone ... 'cause he officially snatched up his lavish mansion while J Lo blew out her candles.

TMZ has confirmed Ben received his own little present on the same day Lopez turned 55 -- closing escrow on his $20 million Los Angeles mansion.

Worth noting ... Jennifer made her own real estate move on her bday too, finalizing the sale of her NYC condo on the same day -- selling her four-bedroom, 7.5-bath duplex in the Big Apple for $23 million after years of searching for a buyer.

Bill Maher's making it perfectly clear ... it's loud and clear he ain't no Swiftie -- going as far as to predict Travis Kelce will dump the hell outta Taylor Swift sooner or later.

He vented to Haliey Welch, AKA the "Hawk Tuah" girl, on his 'Club Random' podcast ... saying the singer was too old to be rocking the Kansas City Chief's jersey at his games, and thought her high school-style declarations of love will end up being too much for Travis.

"Hawk Tuah" came to Taylor's defense ... saying she should do whatever makes her happy ... and while Maher begrudgingly agreed, he bluntly predicted, "He's gonna dump her, though, You know that? With her, it's like the Gatorade at the Super Bowl, you know you're gonna get dumped. You just don't know when."
