Fairly Legal

Michelle Jenneke never took home the Gold at the Olympics, but we're thinking she's got diamonds on the mind right about now -- because she's engaged!

The Australian hurdler and her soon-to-be husband, Alex Beck, shared a joint Instagram post Sunday to announce the big news ... and she made sure to show off her engagement ring in the snaps.

Oh, and get this ... Michelle managed to keep her relationship with her fiancé secret for eight and a half years, too!

Michelle isn't the only Olympian in her relationship, as Alex ran the 400-meter dash for Australia at the Tokyo 2020 Summer Games in 2021.

Several other former Olympians -- including Ella Nelson, Alysha Newman and Genevieve Gregson -- congratulated the happy couple in the post's comments section.

And just in case Michelle's name sounded sort of familiar to you, her pre-race warmup dance brought her plenty of attention in 2012, after a clip from the World Junior Championships in Barcelona went viral.

A professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was fatally shot by an unidentified assailant at his home shortly before 8:30 PM Monday.

Nuno F. Gomes Loureiro was found inside his residence in Brookline, Massachusetts -- located just over 6 miles from Boston -- when officers responded to a call reporting gunshots.

Loureiro was rushed to a hospital for treatment, where he was pronounced dead at the age of 47 Tuesday. He'd been shot multiple times, police said.

A neighbor of Loureiro's said they heard "three loud bangs," which they initially thought was someone "kicking in a door," WBZ-TV reports.

Nick Reiner was acting out of place at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party hours before his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, were found stabbed to death in the couple's home ... and now there's a report of a strange interaction that concerned partygoers.

According to NBC News, Nick allegedly interrupted comedian Bill Hader mid-conversation during the holiday gathering Saturday night in L.A. The outlet reports Hader told Nick the conversation was private ... and Nick then slipped into a thousand-yard stare, before "storming off."

As we reported ... Nick also got into a loud shouting match with his father at the same event. In recent months, Rob and Michele were struggling with how to deal with Nick as he continued to battle mental health issues and alleged substance abuse. Rob reportedly brought Nick to the party to keep an eye on him.

The second of 2 doctors who pleaded guilty in connection with Matthew Perry's death was sentenced Tuesday ... and the judge gave Dr. Mark Chavez a pretty light sentence.

United States District Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett sentenced Chavez to eight months' home confinement and ordered him to complete 300 hours of community service.

In October 2024, Chavez pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine. He quickly cut a deal with the feds after a slew of arrests were made in connection with Perry's death. Chavez admitted to selling ketamine to Dr. Salvador Plasencia, which was then sold to Perry weeks before the actor's fatal overdose.

Prosecutors said Chavez obtained the ketamine fraudulently by submitting a prescription in the name of a patient without the patient's knowledge or consent.

Earlier this month, Plasencia was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison after pleading guilty to 4 counts of distributing ketamine.

Nick Reiner went through difficult years as an adolescent dealing with addiction issues, although he seemed to turn things around in his adult years. However, the son of Rob and Michele Reiner ended up in the news for all the wrong reasons in 2025 -- when he was arrested on suspicion of murdering his parents.

We're going to take a look into the former screenwriter's background and see what led up to and took place after the deaths of his actor-director father and his photographer mother.

Nick Reiner -- who was arrested on suspicion of killing his parents Rob and Michele Reiner -- will NOT appear in court today for the first time since their grisly murders ... he doesn't have medical clearance.

Prosecutors were expected to decide whether and how to officially charge Nick with killing his parents ... but that will have to wait, because Nick's defense attorney, Alan Jackson, says his client is not medically cleared to appear in court.

As we first reported ... Nick is on suicide watch at Men's Central Jail in L.A., where he's being held without bail. Jackson said this morning he has not received any filing yet from prosecutors ... and he doesn't believe the court has received any filing either.

As Nick Reiner prepares to make his first court appearance ... TMZ has learned Rob and Michele had been dead for some time before their daughter made the grisly discovery Sunday.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... When police arrived on the scene Sunday afternoon around 3:40 PM, rigor mortis appeared to have set in Rob and Michele’s bodies -- meaning they had been deceased for hours before their daughter Romy arrived.

Romy arrived at the house and found the bodies ... then called police, before calling longtime family friend Billy Crystal.

Police interviewed Romy at the scene, who by then was joined by a female friend ... and we hear she told officers her brother Nick was "dangerous." We're told she also said that Nick was living at the house -- but he was not there when she arrived, insinuating he fled the scene.

Sources tell us ... the scene was something out of a nightmare -- with the bodies butchered … the devastation was described as the actions of a "mad man."

Joe Ely, a country-music singer-songwriter widely admired by artists across a spectrum of genres, has died.

Ely died at his home in Taos, New Mexico, on Monday after suffering complications from Lewy Body Dementia, Parkinson’s disease and pneumonia, according to a statement on his Facebook account. His wife Sharon and their daughter Marie were by his side when he died.

Ely was born in Amarillo, Texas, and he later moved to Lubbock, where he spent his formative years and began his musical career. He formed The Flatlanders alongside Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Butch Hancock, and they released a single album in 1972 before disbanding the following year.

President Donald Trump has classified fentanyl -- and many of the chemicals used in the narcotic's production -- weapons of mass destruction.

Trump issued an executive order regarding the drug Monday, describing fentanyl as "closer to a chemical weapon than a narcotic."

The order proclaims the deadly substance is predominantly manufactured and distributed by organized criminal organizations, and has the potential to be utilized for "concentrated, large-scale terror attacks."

Nick Reiner is calling in the heavies after being arrested for allegedly murdering his famous parents ... because Alan Jackson tells us Nick hired him as his defense attorney.

Alan is one of the most well known criminal defense attorneys out there, and he's no stranger to high-profile cases like this one ... he recently got Karen Read acquitted of murder in Massachusetts.

As you know ... Nick was booked on murder charges after Rob and Michele Reiner were found dead Sunday in their Brentwood home ... and he's being held without bail.

We saw Alan heading into a Los Angeles courthouse Tuesday for some legal proceedings related to Nick's case ... so it's game on.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's been off the market for a few years, and now she's really locking it down with Brian Glenn -- because they're engaged!

The news about the soon-to-be ex-U.S. Representative from Georgia was shared by her future husband on X on Monday in a photo of him sitting in a restaurant next to Greene, who showed off her new engagement ring, writing "She said ‘yes’. 💍"

Just in case there was any doubt about her future marital status, Greene reshared the photo and wrote she'd found her "happily ever after."

FYI ... Brian first spotted Marjorie at a rally for Donald Trump back in 2022, and they began dating the following year, reports the Washington Post.

The two got close over the next few years, although they faced a hurdle earlier this year when Greene began breaking from Trump, who later began outright denouncing her former political ally. Glenn is the White House correspondent for Real America’s Voice, a conservative news outlet.

Glenn, who's made no secret of his support for POTUS, told the Washington Post he'd ultimately pick his future bride over 47 if it really came down to it -- and said he'd be following her back to Georgia after she finishes out her time in Washington, D.C. next year.

Sherrone Moore's affair with a Michigan Wolverines staff member, combined with his arrest, has left his former football players feeling "betrayed" ... so says Moore's replacement.

Biff Poggi, the Wolverines' interim coach, shared his thoughts on the matter on Monday as the team prepares for the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl against the No. 13 Texas Longhorns on December 31.

"It has been a tumultuous time," Poogi said.

Rob and Michele Reiner died from "multiple sharp force injuries" ... according to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner.

The ME also notes the manner of death for both Rob and Michele was homicide.

As you know ... Rob and Michele were found dead Sunday afternoon in their Brentwood home.

Rob and Michele's bodies were found by their daughter, Romy, and she told police her brother, Nick, lived with their parents and was "dangerous" and should be considered a suspect.

Nick Reiner -- the son of Rob and Michele Reiner, who's been arrested on suspicion of murdering them -- was missing for hours after his parents were found with their throats slit inside their Brentwood home ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources say ... after Rob and Michele's daughter Romy found their bodies, she noted to police Nick had been living there and was possibly behind the murders.

When police responded to a call for a death investigation around 3:40 PM Sunday, Nick was nowhere to be found. Romy was the one who called 911 and told police her brother was "dangerous" and should be considered a suspect.

Romy told police Nick was not there when she arrived, insinuating he fled the scene. Police finally located and arrested Nick at approximately 9:15 PM Sunday.

Nick is currently in police custody, held without bail.

11:16 AM PT -- Nick Reiner's original $4 million bond has been changed ... he's now being held without bail.

Rob and Michele Reiner's son Nick has been arrested and is being held on $4 million bail, TMZ has learned.

The 32-year-old is in the custody of the Los Angeles Police Department as of Monday morning, according to online records. He was booked at the LAPD jail.

As we reported ... the couple was found by one of their daughters Sunday with their throats slit inside their Los Angeles home. LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell said Nick is a suspect in the case, and announced his arrest on suspicion of murder.

Rob Reiner and his wife Michele had their throats slit by a family member, possibly after an argument inside their Los Angeles home, leading to their tragic deaths ... TMZ has learned.

It's unclear what exactly triggered the violence, which went down Sunday afternoon in Brentwood ... but we're told one of Rob's daughters found her parents dead and told police a family member had killed them. PEOPLE reports the couple's son, Nick, was questioned in connection with the murders. Nick has since been arrested for murder.

Our sources also say the daughter told police the family member "should be a suspect" because they're "dangerous."

TMZ broke the story ... Rob and Michele suffered lacerations consistent with knife wounds, and LAPD's Robbery Homicide Division is investigating the case.
