Mama June is making one thing crystal clear about daughter Pumpkin's OnlyFans hustle ... that spicy side gig belongs to Pumpkin, not Mama.

Pumpkin cranked up promotion of her adult subscription page Wednesday ... flashing a red lace bodysuit in her cover shot and inviting fans to "Come enjoy the spicy side of me" -- so we had to ask June what she really thinks about it.

June tells TMZ it's not something she would personally do herself, noting she's still got kids in school ... so yeah, that's a hard pass.

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kelli Ferrell is back in court with her ex-husband, Mark Ferrell, TMZ has learned.

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, Kelli, who has primary custody of their three kids, claimed Mark is not up to date on his $3,991 per month in child support.

Eric Rosenbrook says he and wife Leida Margaretha are taking things one day at a time after the heartbreaking death of their baby daughter, and they're not rushing into any big family decisions ... TMZ has learned.

The "90 Day Fiancé" star tells us when it comes to whether they'll try for another child, they haven't made that call yet. The couple lost their daughter, Alisa Eleanor Rosenbrook, in July 2025 after she was taken off life support, and Eric says they're still grieving.

As we previously reported ... Eric is also fighting back against the medical examiner's ruling that labeled Alisa's death "non-accidental." He tells us he and Leida have hired a private medical examiner to review the autopsy and claims their expert believes the original exam was poorly performed.

Eric claims key steps were allegedly skipped, and the report failed to clearly determine the age of a fracture referenced in the investigation. He adds that their expert believes one injury could have occurred during Alisa's C-section birth about five weeks before her death. He also claims a rib fracture noted in the report may have happened during CPR efforts.

Donna Motsinger's lawsuit against Bill Cosby is taking yet another dramatic turn ... Cosby wants to use evidence her son, Jeff, is an alcoholic with childhood trauma to undermine his testimony ... but Donna's lawyers say he can't do that!

In court papers, obtained by TMZ, Donna says that because Cosby has no expert to say that Jeff's "alcoholism or childhood trauma" is in any way related to Jeff's memory, any evidence of a drinking problem or history of trauma can't be used in the case to discredit his testimony.

As we reported ... Donna claims Cosby drugged and raped her in 1972 ... and pointed to Cosby admitting during a deposition that he obtained recreational prescriptions for Quaaludes that he secured from a gynecologist at a poker game.

Out of respect for Rachel and her family, and due to patient privacy laws, I will not comment further.”

Mickey Rourke says there’s a good reason he stopped paying rent at his L.A. apartment … claiming the place was plagued by rodents and other serious maintenance problems.

But the situation went sideways after cops said Hughes came on the scene and chased after the teens before, slipping on the rain-soaked street.
