Nicole Olivera -- the mother of Louis Russell's child -- tells TMZ the situation escalated back on February 21 around 1:30 AM … when she claims Huda showed up uninvited to her home.

According to Nicole, Huda allegedly took an Uber to Nicole's L.A. apartment, where she lives with her son, and trespassed by forcing her way into the building ... which Nicole says was captured on surveillance video. She insists she never gave Huda access, either verbally or physically.

Production on "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" has been put on ice after allegations of child and spousal abuse, and we've learned it's gotten so crazy Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen have been ordered to get psych evaluations.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Dakota has called the Utah Division of Child and Family Services more than a few times, alleging Taylor has been physically abusive to their son Ever, who turns 2 this week. Our sources say Taylor denies the allegation, and Dakota has become frustrated that no action has been taken.

Things came to a head late last month, when Taylor and Dakota were driving in his car and got in a heated argument. We're told a drink was spilled on the seat and on Dakota, and he became enraged. Sources connected to Taylor say he got physical with her. We're told Dakota called the police and said Taylor was the one who got physical.

Our Taylor sources say Dakota went MIA for nearly 3 weeks after the car incident, and that's why production stopped. He has an important part in the show, and producers wanted to wait until he resurfaced. Sources connected to the show tell us a different story ... that cast members refused to continue filming -- despite producers wanting to keep filming -- because of the child and spousal abuse allegations.

D4vd's former good friend Neo appears to have turned against him in the Celeste Rivas death investigation, and attorney Mark Geragos tells us Neo could be D4vd's worst nightmare.

It looks like mysterious street artist Banksy has finally been unmasked.

On Friday, Reuters published an in-depth investigation into the artist's identity, naming him "beyond dispute."

The international news organization uncovered a handwritten and signed confession from Banksy to a disorderly conduct misdemeanor charge from about 25 years ago ... and his signature seems to read "Robin Gunningham."

That name also popped up several times in court docs about the arrest.

According to Banksy's company, Pest Control, the artist "has decided to say nothing."

Banksy's lawyer, Mark Stephens, wasn't so tight-lipped, saying Banksy "does not accept that many of the details contained within your enquiry are correct."

Reuters says Stephens didn't confirm or deny his client's identity ... but did warn the outlet that publishing their investigation would violate his privacy and threaten his safety.

Funny enough ... The Mail on Sunday clocked Robin Gunningham as Banksy's real identity back in 2008, but Banksy's manager insisted the photo featured in that report wasn't of the artist.

And RG wasn't the only name floating around over the years.

A major theory suggested Robert Del Naja -- frontman of the band Massive Attack -- was behind the famed stencil art.

But the crucial clue is the signed confession from Banksy's NYC arrest in 2000.

His former manager, Steve Lazarides, wrote in his book "Banksy Captured" about how the street artist was nabbed by NYPD while defacing a Marc Jacobs Men billboard.

In his confession, Banksy called it "a humorous adjustment," before signing it as RG.

According to Reuters, the cops had "no idea" they had booked Banksy, because he had only just started going by that name and implementing his signature style into his work.

In 2008, Banksy allegedly changed his name from Robin Gunningham to David Jones, since it's one of the most common names for British men.

Grace Lilly's latest arrest last week apparently didn't come out of nowhere ... it seems to have been triggered by new lab results tied to her previous run-in with cops, TMZ has learned.

According to an incident report, obtained by TMZ, cops say they tested the pills police found in the "Southern Hospitality" star's purse during her December arrest in Charleston, SC. Authorities say the lab results showed the 12 white pills contained clonazepam -- which is often sold under the brand name Klonopin -- a controlled substance commonly prescribed for anxiety and seizure disorders.

It's illegal to possess the medication without a valid prescription ... and the report says an officer drafted an affidavit and a judge signed a warrant, which appears to be what ultimately led to Grace's arrest on March 10.

There's new evidence that the death of Celeste Rivas was not accidental ... and it's something people didn't pick up on over the weekend.

Neo posted on Saturday ... that he's clamming up over the mystery surrounding Celeste's death. In the Insta post, he says ... "... at the end of the day this case isn't about me, it isn't about you, it's about getting justice for the victim and her family ..."

The word "victim" is critical ... our sources say the L.A. County Medical Examiner has had enormous trouble establishing cause of death, in large part because of the state Celeste's body was in when it was discovered in the trunk of D4vd's Tesla.

We do not know if the M.E. ultimately established cause of death ... but even if they did rule it a homicide, they had so much trouble it will almost certainly be a hotly contested issue when the case goes to trial.

A$AP Rocky was spotted for the first time in public since Rihanna was at home during a frightening incident when her house was shot up earlier this month ... and we have the pics.

The rapper was snapped carrying a large red leather bag over his shoulder, pairing a graphic jacket layered over a hoodie, as he walked down a New York City street Sunday night ... one week after the shooting.

As you know ... Rihanna was at home with their 3 children when an assailant fired multiple rounds into her Los Angeles house on Sunday, March 8.

The Georgia teen who avoided criminal charges after he ran over and killed a math teacher should not be criminally charged because he was driving safely, according to his lawyer.

Jayden Wallace's attorney, Graham McKinnon, tells TMZ ... Wallace, 18, was not driving his pickup truck "in a dangerous or unsafe matter" as he left the home of his "mentor," Jason Hughes, after toilet papering Hughes' property with his buddies. 

As a result, McKinnon says it's not "appropriate to charge a crime" because it was a straight-up accident. Wallace was arrested and booked for vehicular homicide after the March 6 tragedy.

John Alford -- a British actor who was convicted on sex offenses connected to two teenage girls last year -- has died in prison.

The Mirror and the BBC confirmed the news with a spokesperson for the prison system ... who told them, "John Shannon died in prison on 13 March 2026. As with all deaths in custody, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman will investigate."

Shannon was Alford's legal last name ... however, he went by Alford professionally.

A member of Jasmine Crockett's congressional security detail was shot to death by police during a standoff in Texas, according to CBS News.

The violent encounter unfolded in Dallas Wednesday night, when Mike King reportedly ran inside a hospital parking garage and then barricaded himself inside a vehicle while being pursued by SWAT officers.

CBS reports the cops then tear-gassed King, prompting him to jump out of the vehicle and pull a gun before he was fatally shot by police.    

Law enforcement sources told CBS ... King was wanted for impersonating law enforcement while running a platform online, Off Duty Police Services, which finds off-duty gigs for North Texas cops. 

Neo -- a friend of D4vd who blasted the guy on social media this week -- says he doesn't care what the public thinks of him ... and he's done commenting on the case publicly.

Neo took to Instagram Saturday to speak out in a series of fiery posts ... kicking one off by saying he knows his silence in previous months has led to a "void of information that everyone wants to fill."

However, this case isn't about him, Neo notes ... it's about getting justice for Celeste Rivas, whose mutilated body was found in the trunk of D4vd's Tesla more than 6 months ago.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett's bodyguard -- who was killed in a standoff with police this week -- reportedly had a checkered past.

The bodyguard went by Mike King ... but CBS News is now reporting that was an alias -- and his real name was Diamon-Mazairre Robinson.

The outlet reports Robinson was using aliases while running a business that put cops in off-duty security jobs ... and, he reportedly found himself in the crosshairs of a federal investigation for allegedly impersonating an officer.

A man shot and killed 2 people in Florida Friday, about a mile from where the ongoing PGA Tour is being played ... leading to the entrance time for the third round to be delayed by a couple of hours Saturday.

The suspect, identified by St. Johns County Sheriff Rob Hardwick as Christian Barrios, drilled 2 people with bullets around 10:30 PM Friday night in a Walgreens parking lot in connection with a domestic violence situation, Hardwick announced. He then sent authorities on a wild manhunt, including on TPC Sawgrass property, where the tour is being played.

Hardwick says Barrios stole a PGA Tour radio but later dropped it, and that K-9 units were hot on his trail at the TPC Sawgrass property.

The gunman then hopped into a black BMW and led cops all the way to Nassau County, where he crashed the car into the woods and fled on foot. He was eventually apprehended and put behind bars.

The two victims died in the hospital. Their identities have not been released.

Barrios has a criminal past with at least 27 arrests and was out on probation, Hardwick said, and he knew both people he murdered.
