Well, we reached out to the Dupree family ... and, Baylen and Bechnir's mom, Julie, tells us Bechnir's safe and sound at home. The post is a fake and not associated with the family.

Kevin Spacey's setting the record straight ... telling fans he isn't homeless ... and blaming a misleading headline for all the confusion.

The actor took to social media to clear up the issue ... telling fans he doesn't like to spend his time correcting the media, but he couldn't let this rumor keep going because so many of his loyal followers have reached out to him offering assistance.

Spacey thanks everyone who reached out offering him a couch to crash on or just to see if he's doing alright these days ... but, he says he's not actually homeless.

Tom Hanks, Oprah, and Stephen Hawking ... what do these three have in common? They’ve all landed on an online betting board listing celebs people expect will show up in the Jeffrey Epstein Files.

The name currently at the top is former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak ... sitting at a whopping 65% chance. "Forrest Gump" star Tom lands in fifth place on the monstrous leaderboard, with David Koch, David Copperfield, and Ellen DeGeneres rounding out the oh-no-thanks top 5 spots.

He added more fuel to the speculation with a second post, writing ... "I'm sorry for those who believed in us. It is what it is. Onwards and upwards."

Offset says he never posted and then deleted a supposed reference to Cardi B and Stefon Diggs' baby boy.

Here's the deal ... Cardi made a big stink over the weekend about Offset allegedly harassing her after social media went wild over a post that appeared to be from Offset, where it looked like he said "My kid lol" on his Instagram story.

Robert Irwin had everyone talking about his 'DWTS' chemistry with Xochitl Gomez ... everyone except the Aussie himself, who just sidestepped the romance questions like a pro!

We grabbed Robert as he rolled into practice Wednesday in L.A. ... and when we asked if he and Xochitl are a thing, he swerved hard, launching into a lil’ monologue about how they had the best time and how their two dances were so much fun. Cute answer ... but not the answer.

TBH, his non-answer doesn’t shut down the rumors at all -- 'cause if there was nothing going on, he could’ve just flat-out denied it. Instead, he left the door cracked wide open, which is exactly how a showmance is born ...
