Joe Jonas Divorce Sources: Joe Pressured Sophie to Attend Events ... As She Struggled Post-Birth

Published | Updated

Sophie Turner was struggling after the birth of her second child, and Joe Jonas was "less than supportive," so claims several sources who were around Joe after the birth.

Our sources say, after their youngest child was born a year ago July, Sophie didn't want to leave their home ... she didn't want to be photographed or go to events. Nevertheless, she attended several events with Joe, but at one specific event, several people who were there said Sophie made it clear she was uncomfortable and didn't want to be there.

Shortly after that event, there was another in which Joe attended but Sophie didn't. Our sources say Joe complained Sophie was MIA and felt she needed to get out more. It was clear to the people who were there and heard Joe ... there was a strain in the relationship.

What's interesting ... as we reported, over the last 6 months it seemed the tables had turned for Joe ... he was complaining she was too into partying.

Sources connected to Joe acknowledge "challenges in the relationship," but say Joe was supportive of Sophie getting the London acting gig.

As we reported, Joe filed for divorce Tuesday ... and the trigger for him was allegedly Ring camera audio/video of Sophie doing or saying something.

We reached out to Sophie's team but didn't hear back. Joe's rep declined to comment.

Fuentes dicen Joe presionó a Sophie a ir a eventos mientras lidiaba con su posparto

Published | Updated

Sophie Turner estaba pasándolo mal después del nacimiento de su segunda hija y Joe Jonas le dio menos del apoyo que necesitaba, según dicen varias fuentes que estaban cerca de Joe después del nacimiento.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que, después de que su hija menor naciera hace un año, en julio, Sophie no quería salir de su casa. No quería ser fotografiada o ir a eventos. Sin embargo, fue a varios, aunque en uno en concreto, varias personas que estuvieron allí dijeron que Sophie dejó claro que no se sentía cómoda y que no quería estar allí.

Poco después de ese evento, hubo otro en el que Joe asistió, pero Sophie no. Nuestras fuentes dicen que allí el cantante se quejó de que Sophie andaba desaparecida y sintió que ella necesitaba salir más. Para las personas que estuvieron ahí y escucharon a Joe, quedó más que claro que había tensión en la relación.

Lo que es interesante es que, como informamos, en los últimos seis meses pareciera que las cosas habían empezado a tomar un nuevo curso para Joe. Recientemente se quejaba de que ella pasaba demasiado metida en fiestas.

Fuentes cercanas a Joe reconocen que había "problemas en la relación", pero dicen que Joe apoyó a Sophie para que consiguiera el trabajo de actriz en Londres.

Como informamos, Joe pidió el divorcio el martes y el detonante para él fue un supuesto audio o video de Sophie haciendo o diciendo algo, que vio en la cámara Ring de seguridad.

Nos pusimos en contacto con el equipo de Sophie, pero no tuvimos respuesta. El representante de Joe declinó hacer comentarios.

One Chip Challenge Massachusetts Teen Dies After Eating Dangerously Spicy Snack

Published | Updated

A Massachusetts teen is dead after eating an incredibly spicy chip that's the subject of a viral challenge -- and his family is directly blaming the snack.

14-year-old Harris Wolobah passed away Friday in Worcester -- and, according to his mother, it's the result of complications he suffered after eating a Paqui chip at school earlier in the day.

His official cause of death is still pending, but Harris was attempting the "One Chip Challenge," which has been around for a few years now. Paqui advertises its chip with a skull on a coffin-shaped box ... which contains the one tortilla chip.

There are warning labels all over the packaging ... including one that says children should not eat it, nor should people who have certain allergens or who are sensitive to spicy foods.

Harris' mother says she was contacted by his school Friday, because he was complaining of a stomach ache after eating the chip. By the time he came home, she says he felt better -- and was even on his way to a basketball tryout -- before things went south and he collapsed.

He was rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Now, his mom is ripping the response, telling NBC Boston Harris should've been taken straight to the hospital by school officials ... rather than being sent to the nurse's office.

The school hasn't responded to that criticism, but the district superintendent says they're mourning his death.

Paqui's One Chip Challenge has been scrutinized before, and the company's defended itself ... saying it goes out of the way to warn consumers about who should and shouldn't partake.

Shakira Mommy Duty for Labor Day ... Jet Skiing w/ The Kiddos!!!

Published | Updated

Shakira's hips don't lie, and neither do these photos when it comes to how great of a weekend she's having with her little ones ... just take a look for yourself.

The Colombian singer was down in Miami Monday with her two children, Milan and Sasha, and what appear to be a few friends of theirs ... who got treated to a little jet ski excursion on the water, with Mama Bear leading the way.

Check it out ... you see Shakira taking a couple of the boys along for a ride -- with everyone wearing life vests ... and the kiddos holding on for dear life and Shakira tears it up.

Nothin too crazy, of course -- but you can tell they were catching some speed for a bit.

Now, the other thing to take note of here is the fact that Shakira appears to be flying solo -- namely, there isn't a dude (aside from the jet ski guy) in sight ... which is interesting.

There've been dating rumors about her swirling all year -- everyone from Lewis Hamilton to Jimmy Butler have been mentioned as potential flames ... as has Drake and even Tom Cruise. The only one of those dudes she's actually been spotted with though is LH.

Whoever she is or isn't dating feels kinda meaningless, though, in a scenario like this. Mami clearly cn do bad all by herself.😎

NYG's Isaiah Hodgins Honors His Kids With Custom Cleats

Published

Isaiah Hodgins' two kids will be in his heart, on his mind AND plastered to his feet this season ... 'cause TMZ Sports has learned the Giants receiver just copped some custom spikes to honor his two babies.

Cleat artist Joe Castro is the man behind the sweet pieces ... and he tells us the receiver actually reached out to him recently with the idea.

Castro took a bit to get the kids' faces painted on the Nike cleats just right ... but in the end, they came out great.

Featured on one of the shoes is Hodgins' son, who was born in 2020. On the other is Hodgins' newborn daughter.

Unclear when Hodgins will rock the blue-and-white spikes ... but it might just be next week, when NY opens its season against the Dallas Cowboys.

The New York wideout isn't the only NFL player who will rep his kids on his cleats this season ... Jackson also made customs for Bears defensive tackle Gervon Dexter -- who got his son and the mother of his child on his Nike cleats recently as well.

Football and family ... can't beat the combo.

Chrisean Rock Gives Birth on IG Live ... New Baby Boy is Here!!!

Published | Updated
9/3/23
here he comes!!!

Chrisean Rock is now a mom, 'cause she just gave birth to her son ... and she did on the 'Gram, no less.

The rapper was livestreaming her delivery Sunday on from her Instagram account, which captured her on a hospital bed with friends and family all around -- this while she pushed, screamed and, eventually, cried tears of joy.

Indeed, the baby appears to have been secured safely ... but it was a process. At one point in the livestream, Chrisean could be seen/heard saying -- "Get this n**** out!" as doctors worked on her. No word on how long she was in labor, but the baby boy has arrived.

Chrisean's baby daddy, Blueface, was nowhere to be seen in her video ... there's footage circulating of him online right now that appears to show him in a different city entirely.

He's made it clear throughout this whole saga ... Chrisean isn't his #1 anymore, even as he's been confronted with paternity. Remember, he's got other children from different women.

Anyhoo, Chrisean seems to have had some kind of support system around her. With that said, her pregnancy has been controversial ... with many weighing on how she'd carried herself through parts of it, including instances of her smoking with a bun in the oven.

All that's over now, though ... here's hoping the baby is healthy. Congrats!

Jake Gyllenhaal Romantic Stroll Through NYC ... With French GF of 5 Years

Published

Jake Gyllenhaal is as low-key as they come, but this weekend -- he wanted to put his love life on full display for the world to see ... and it's really like something out of a movie.

Check out these awesome photos of the big-time actor taking a romantic walk through NYC's SoHo neighborhood alongside his girlfriend of 5 years -- French model Jeanne Cadieu ... with whom he's been involved with since at least 2018.

As you can see, they're kinda in matching outfits here ... JG has a loose white shirt -- meanwhile, Jeanne's rocking a beige, Fall-ready cozy sweater and some cuffed jeans.

They were hand-in-hand, and at times ... even arm-in-arm, with Jeanne wrapping herself around Jake's shoulder -- and him holding onto her waist. Of course, there were also some kisses too ... like we said, it ended up amounting to a Hallmark moment, of sorts.

Interestingly enough, these pics come on the heels of Jake opening up about his relationship with Jeanne to People Mag -- where he heaped on glowing praise for his partner. Jake has this to say, "It's no secret that I'm in a relationship and it's a wonderful relationship. We are private, but I guess we are who we are. We're just living our lives. We always have. And I love that people are interested, but at the same time, it's like what's ours is ours."

Jake also said this about the prospect of settling down ... "I would love to have a family, and if it's anything like the family that my sister's raised and has cultivated, I would be proud," adding that his relationship with Jeanne is "one of the most important in my life."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

In other words, this might be the one for Jake Gyllenhaal ... after all these years.

BTW, we'd be remiss not to mention this -- the dude's doing a little press run right now for this new children's book of his -- "The Secret Society of Aunts & Uncles" ... which he wrote himself. It's going on sale September 5, and folks can pre-order it if they're so inclined.

LeVar Burton 'Jeopardy!' Didn't Want Me But CW Does for 'Trivial Pursuit'!!!

Published

LeVar Burton's TV days are far from over, and ditto for expanding people's minds -- 'cause the dude is about to venture out on a Trivial Pursuit ... one that's almost a sealed deal.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... LeVar and his team are close to locking in terms on a new job he's been teeing up for a couple years now -- namely, as executive producer and host of the new Trivial Pursuit game show ... which is going to be aired on the CW.

We're told things are almost finalized between LeVar and the network, and that the series already has a 12-episode order. So, yes ... we're gonna see LeVar on the tube again in due time.

As for how all this came together ... well, our sources tell us that's actually all due to Hasbro -- the toy company that owns the rights to Trivial Pursuit, who initially brought him in.

We're told Hasbro honchos thought of LB after he got snubbed by Sony execs for the highly-coveted "Jeopardy!" hosting job -- which was a whole saga in and of itself. Remember, Sony never even approached him for the gig -- nor did they seriously consider him.

Obviously, Hasbro thought differently ... and the conversations kicked into high gear after the CW became attached to developing Trivial Pursuit into a game show. If you're unfamiliar, TP sees players answering a variety of trivia questions, touching on a bunch of categories.

It's kind of the perfect next chapter for the dude who hosted "Reading Rainbow."

Congrats!

'Teen Mom' Jenelle Evans Son Goes Missing Again, Cops Called

Published | Updated

Jenelle Evans is dealing with every parent's nightmare -- her son Jace has gone missing twice in the last two weeks -- getting cops involved to help track him down.

Jenelle's manager, August Keen, tells us 14-year-old Jace left Jenelle's North Carolina home Monday to roam around their extensive property. After several hours without contact, Jenelle became worried and couldn't find her son ... forcing her to get the police involved.

Fortunately, we're told, Jace was located at a gas station about 10 minutes from Jenelle's home. However, we're told it's unclear if Jace was with friends or just wandered solo.

TMZ broke the story, cops were on the hunt for Jace earlier this month after he left school and couldn't be found. He was later located safely ... and Jenelle said the whole thing happened because she took Jace's phone away after he acted up in school.

Keen tells us Jace is now back home with Jenelle and her husband, David Eason, and the 3 are getting along without issue. We're told Jace just wants more freedom as he gets older, and is just a typical teen being a teen.

Youth Soccer Coach Brutally Attacked By Parent ... With Metal Water Bottle

Published

A youth soccer coach in Virginia claims he was savagely beaten by an out-of-control parent who attacked him with a metal water bottle ... causing serious damage, including a broken eye socket.

The shocking incident happened Saturday afternoon about an hour west of Washington D.C. in Manassas, VA, where a boys' team scrimmage was going down. Coach Vince Villanueva was manning the sideline ... and told FOX 5 D.C. he attempted to make a substitution in the game.

"The father went over to talk to the son and then when I went to get him and put him back in the game, I said 'Are you okay?' And he said, 'No he’s not,' and he said, 'Coach can I talk to you?'" Villanueva explained.

"Then everything went downhill from there."

Villanueva -- who was filling in for his friend at the Northern VA soccer club -- said the father started hitting him with a metal water bottle multiple times, leaving him with injuries on his face, including two swollen, black eyes and a fractured orbital.

Prince William County Police say they actually located the aggressor after he fled the scene ... and arrested a 45-year-old man, identified as Bletand Hoxha. He was charged with malicious wounding and is being held without bond.

Coach Villanueva was treated at the scene for his injuries ... and has a message for parents who lose their cool on coaches at kids' sporting events.

"Allow them to do their job and just, you know, just make a fun environment," Villanueva said.

"Kids have enough stress in life with everything else in the world. Allow them to have that moment, someplace to escape from it."

Parents vs. coaches and/or referees fights are seemingly happening way more frequently, and it's a real problem. In fact, just a few months ago, an official was attacked by a father at a youth basketball game in Indiana.

The singer was answering questions from fans on social media, and when one person asked if she was nervous about breastfeeding now that she's cupped up -- which happened 2 years back -- JJD answered honestly ... explaining a bit of buyer's remorse.

Jessie's been upfront about her personal health and medical decisions -- including the fact that she wanted her hubby, Eric, to get a vasectomy after they had their 3rd child.
