Matthew McConaughey got a restraining order against a woman he says has stalked and harassed him for over a year ... filing for protection before an in-person event he feared she'd attend.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Matthew claims he's been subjected to harassment from the woman since April 2022 -- saying she has sent him "unhinged letters, emails, and frivolous lawsuits designed to lure me into court to contact me."

He claims she thinks she's in a relationship with Matthew and co-authored his books with him ... adding he's never contacted her and told his security to treat her kindly when talking to her, but wanted them to make it clear he doesn't want to talk.

He says things have escalated, claiming she bought a ticket to a recent photo op event for his children's book, "Just Because," in L.A., and planned to travel "over 300 miles" to meet him.

Matthew claims she also sent a "threatening email" to the bookstore ahead of the event, confirming her attendance.

DJ Tyler Young hails from rap royalty -- being Dr. Dre's son and all -- but he's out to make his own legacy ... not in hip hop, but in EDM!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Tyler, and his collaborator RMN, live and direct from Scotland ahead of his first-ever gig in Europe.

Tyler tells us he 1000% grew up with his famous father blasting rap and G-funk all day and night, and while he developed an ear for EDM in his teens ... he says his apple didn't fall that far from the tree. He notes his dad started out deejaying electro music with World Class Wreckin' Cru.

Tyler says he embarked on his producing career several years ago and began dabbling in DJing when he met RMN, a 30-year vet on the scene and began sending him tracks, birthing their partnership.

This weekend, those partners are taking their act to Scotland for shows in Aberdeen and newly renovated Aura nightclub in Dundee.

Tyler says he's got the support of his family but knows he's gonna be the trailblazer in this particular musical adventure.

DJ Tyler Young puede provenir de la realeza del rap al ser el hijo de Dr. Dre... ¡¡¡pero está listo para hacer del EDM su propio legado!!!

TMZ Hip Hop se puso al día con Tyler y su colaborador RMN en vivo y en directo desde Escocia antes de sus primeros conciertos en Europa.

Tyler nos dice que creció 1000% con su padre escuchando rap y G-funk a todo volumen día y noche, pero desarrolló un oído para la música EDM (Electronic dance music) en su adolescencia, y eso quiere decir que el fruto no cayó tan lejos del árbol, si tenemos en cuenta que los inicios de su padre fueron poniendo música electro con World Class Wreckin 'Cru.

Tyler dice que se embarcó en su carrera de productor hace varios años y comenzó a incursionar como DJ cuando conoció a RMN, un veterano de 30 años en la escena. Cuenta que comenzó a enviarle pistas y así nació su asociación.

Este fin de semana, dichos socios llevarán su espectáculo recién renovado a la ciudad de Aberdeen y a Dundee.

Tyler dice que cuenta con el apoyo de su familia, aunque es el pionero en esta particular aventura musical.

Joe Jonas seemingly found some comfort in his brother, Nick Jonas ... grabbing dinner in the night before his estranged wife, Sophie Turner, slammed him with a lawsuit over the custody of their kids.

Two-thirds of the Jo Bros were at The Waverly Inn in NYC Wednesday night -- and Joe seemed to be deep in conversation with Nick as they dined.

BTW, this spot is a couple blocks away from where Sophie was hanging out with Joe's other ex, Taylor Swift, the night before.

She was also spotted at The St. Regis Hotel in New York on Thursday, hours after suing her estranged husband ... so they're still not that far from each other.

As we reported, Sophie claims Joe is illegally keeping their 2 kids in New York and wants them brought back to England, as laid out in an explosive lawsuit she filed Thursday morning.

Sophie says she agreed -- "with some hesitation" -- to let the kids stay with him while he was touring in the U.S. because she was working on her time-consuming series overseas, but that agreement was supposed to last until September ... when she would "collect the children and return home to England."

She even cited an international treaty that deals with child abduction across country lines ... so she's keeping pretty serious about getting her kids back to her.

In response, Joe's rep issued a lengthy statement ... saying Sophie's wishes would violate an order that restricts both parents from relocating the children," also reiterating that he's open to sharing custody with her if she moves to England full-time.

Do you think the Sophie Turner/Joe Jonas divorce war will get uglier? Vote below.

Joe Jonas parece haber encontrado consuelo en su hermano, Nick Jonas, con quien lo vimos cenando la noche antes de que su esposa, Sophie Turner, lo demandara por la custodia de sus hijos.

Dos tercios de los Jo Bros estaban en The Waverly Inn en Nueva York el miércoles por la noche, y Joe parecía estar muy concentrado en la conversación con Nick mientras cenaban.

Por cierto, este lugar se encuentra a solo un par de cuadras de donde vimos a Sophie pasando el rato con la otra ex de Joe, Taylor Swift, la noche anterior.

También fue vista en el Hotel St. Regis de Nueva York el jueves, horas después de demandar a su marido separado ... por lo que aún están bien cerquita el uno del otro.

Como informamos, Sophie asegura que Joe está manteniendo ilegalmente a sus dos hijas en Nueva York y quiere que ambas sean traídas de vuelta a Inglaterra, como se establece en una explosiva demanda presentada este jueves por la mañana.

Sophie dice que accedió "con algunas dudas" a que los niños se quedaran con él mientras estaba de gira en EE.UU., porque estaba trabajando en su serie en el extranjero. Pero se suponía que ese acuerdo solo duraría hasta septiembre, cuando ella "recogería a los niños y volvería a casa a Inglaterra."

Ella incluso citó un tratado internacional que se ocupa de la sustracción de menores entre países, por lo que se está tomando muy en serio que sus hijas vuelvan con ella.

En respuesta, el representante de Joe emitió un extenso comunicado en donde dice que los deseos de Sophie violarían una orden que restringe a ambos padres la reubicación de los niños ", reiterando también que está abierto a compartir la custodia con ella si ella se muda a Inglaterra a tiempo completo.

Joe Jonas has fired back at Sophie Turner, saying Sophie is the one who has crossed the line, violating an order by a Florida judge by trying to take their kids permanently to England.

Joe's rep just issued a lengthy statement, in response to Sophie's claim Joe has "abducted" their kids by refusing to hand over their passports so they can return to England per their agreement.

Joe's response ... "After multiple conversations with Sophie, Joe initiated divorce proceedings in Florida, as Florida is the appropriate jurisdiction for the case. Sophie was aware that Joe was going to file for divorce. The Florida Court has already entered an order that restricts both parents from relocating the children. Sophie was served with this order on September 6, 2023, more than two weeks ago."

So, Joe is saying Sophie's position would squarely violate the Florida order keeping the kids where they are.

He also makes it clear ... although he believes the kids' home is in the United States, he's open to sharing custody with her, even if she moves permanently to England. "Joe is seeking shared parenting with the kids so that they are raised by both their mother and father, and is of course also okay with the kids being raised both in the U.S. and the UK. The children were born in the U.S. and have spent the vast majority of their lives in the U.S. They are American citizens."

Joe's rep says their team is surprised by Sophie's latest move ... "Joe and Sophie had a cordial meeting this past Sunday in New York, when Sophie came to New York to be with the kids. They have been with her since that meeting. Joe's impression of the meeting was that they had reached an understanding that they would work together towards an amicable co-parenting setup."

And then, the turn ... "Less than 24 hours later, Sophie advised that she wanted to take the children permanently to the UK. Thereafter, she demanded via this filing that Joe hand over the children’s passports so that she could take them out of the country immediately. If he complies, Joe will be in violation of the Florida Court order."

Joe also takes issue with the allegation he is effectively abducting the kids ... "This is an unfortunate legal disagreement about a marriage that is sadly ending. When language like "abduction" is used, it is misleading at best, and a serious abuse of the legal system at worst. The children were not abducted. After being in Joe's care for the past three months at the agreement of both parties, the children are currently with their mother. Sophie is making this claim only to move the divorce proceedings to the UK and to remove the children from the U.S. permanently."

The legal reality ... now that they are no longer a family living together, their deal is not binding on the divorce judge. The North Star for divorce judges is what is in the best interests of the children.

Joe Jonas le respondió a Sophie Turner, diciéndole que se ha pasado de la raya al intentar llevarse a sus hijas permanentemente a Inglaterra, ya que con ello estaría violando la orden de un juez de Florida.

El representante de Joe acaba de emitir un extenso comunicado, en respuesta a la afirmación de Sophie de que Joe ha "secuestrado" a sus hijas al negarse a entregar sus pasaportes para que puedan regresar a Inglaterra, según su acuerdo.

La respuesta de Joe dice: "Después de múltiples conversaciones con Sophie, Joe inició los trámites de divorcio en Florida, ya que Florida es la jurisdicción apropiada para el caso. Sophie era consciente de que Joe iba a solicitar el divorcio. El Tribunal de Florida ya ha dictado una orden que restringe a ambos progenitores el traslado de los niños. Sophie fue notificada de esta orden el 6 de septiembre de 2023, hace más de dos semanas".

Por lo tanto, Joe está diciendo que la posición de Sophie violaría de lleno la orden de Florida de mantener a los niños donde están.

También deja claro que, aunque cree que el hogar de los niños es en Estados Unidos, está abierto a compartir la custodia con ella, incluso si decide mudarse permanentemente a Inglaterra. "Joe está buscando la custodia compartida con las niñas para que sean criadas tanto por su madre como por su padre, y por supuesto también está de acuerdo con que las niñas sean criadas tanto en los EE.UU. como en el Reino Unido. Las niños nacieron en EE.UU. y han pasado la mayor parte de su vida en ese país. Son ciudadanas estadounidenses".

El representante de Joe dice que su equipo está sorprendido por el último movimiento de Sophie: "Joe y Sophie tuvieron un encuentro cordial el pasado domingo en Nueva York, cuando Sophie vino a la ciudad para estar con los niños. Ellos han estado con ella desde ese encuentro. La impresión de Joe de la reunión fue que habían llegado a un entendimiento de que trabajarían juntos para llegar a un acuerdo amistoso de coparentalidad."

Y luego, el giro: "Menos de 24 horas después, Sophie comunicó que quería llevarse a los niños permanentemente al Reino Unido. A partir de entonces, exigió a través de esta presentación que Joe le entregara los pasaportes de los niños para poder sacarlos del país inmediatamente. Si él cumple, Joe estaría violando la orden del Tribunal de Florida".

Joe también se opone a la alegación de que está secuestrando a los niños: "Este es un desafortunado desacuerdo legal sobre un matrimonio que tristemente está terminando. Cuando se utiliza un lenguaje como "secuestro", en el mejor de los casos es engañoso y, en el peor, un grave abuso del sistema legal. Las niñas no fueron secuestrados. Tras haber estado al cuidado de Joe durante los últimos tres meses por acuerdo de ambas partes, las niñas están actualmente con su madre. Sophie está haciendo este reclo solo para trasladar el proceso de divorcio a Reino Unido y sacar a los niños de EE.UU. de forma permanente."

Esa es la realidad legal ... ahora que ya no son una familia que vive junta, su acuerdo no es vinculante para el juez de divorcio. El norte para los jueces de divorcio es lo abogar por el mejor interés de los niños.

Sophie Turner is at war with Joe Jonas over their 2 kids ... she says Joe is unlawfully keeping their children in New York City and she wants them "returned" to England with her.

Sophie says in April, 2023, the family made England their "permanent home," and regularly discussed their desire to raise the kids in the UK, and for the kids to attend school there.

She says they felt England was a safe place to raise kids, and they were both down with the plan. She had a lengthy passage in her legal docs, outlining all of the activities in which the kids have engaged in England.

She says "with some hesitation," she and Joe agreed the kids would stay with Joe while the Jonas Bros toured the U.S., because she was busy shooting a "very intense," time-consuming series.

Sophie says the agreement was that in September, when she finished filming, she would return to New York, to "collect the children and return home to England."

This past Sunday, Sophie and Joe met to talk about their separation, and she reiterated her desire to take the kids to England that week. Joe was in possession of the kids' passports, and "refused to return the passports to the Mother and refuses to send the children home to England with the Mother."

The Messenger was first to report the lawsuit.

Based on Joe's alleged refusal, she filed these legal docs in federal court, citing the Hague Convention -- an international treaty -- which deals with child abduction across country lines.

She's asking for a court order demanding that Joe produce the passports and return the kids to her.

Don't forget, we reported that the 2 sold their Miami home last month, BTW ... and were planning on moving to England, beginning their search for a spot overseas last December -- touring a couple of spots, too.

Sophie argues they've been living in the UK for 5 months now, and even sold the Miami home the month before he filed.

BTW ... Sophie gets into why they split. She says they had an argument on August 15 and Joe filed for divorce Sept. 1. She found out September 5 through the media. She adds they had both agreed the kids would follow her to England in Sept., but on Sept. 19 Joe's attorney contacted her people and said the kids would not be returning to England.

We reached out to Joe's camp ... so far, no word back.

Do you think the Sophie Turner/Joe Jonas divorce war will get uglier? Vote below.

Sophie Turner está en guerra con Joe Jonas sobre sus 2 hijas. Ella dice que Joe mantiene ilegalmente a sus niñas en la ciudad de Nueva York y ella quiere que "regresen" a Inglaterra con ella.

Sophie dice que en abril de 2023 la familia hizo de Inglaterra su "hogar permanente" y discutió regularmente su deseo de criar a las niñas en el Reino Unido para que puedan asistir a la escuela allí.

Ella dice que sentían que Inglaterra era un lugar seguro para criarlas y ambos estaban de acuerdo con el plan. Ella tenía un largo pasaje en sus documentos legales, describiendo todas las actividades en las que las niñas han participado en Inglaterra.

Dice que "con algunas dudas" ella y Joe acordaron que las niñas se quedarían con Joe mientras los Jonas Bros hacían una gira por EE.UU., porque ella estaba ocupada rodando una serie "muy intensa" que le llevaba mucho tiempo.

Sophie dice que el acuerdo era que en septiembre, cuando terminara de rodar, volvería a Nueva York para "recoger a las niñas y regresar a casa en Inglaterra."

El pasado domingo, Sophie y Joe se reunieron para hablar de su separación y ella reiteró su deseo de llevarse a las niñas a Inglaterra esa semana. Joe estaba en posesión de los pasaportes de las pequeñas y "se negó a devolverle los pasaportes de las chicas a la Madre y se niega a enviarlas a Inglaterra también".

The Messenger fue el primero en informar de la demanda.

Basándose en la supuesta negativa de Joe, ella presentó estos documentos legales en el tribunal federal citando la Convención de La Haya (un tratado internacional), que se ocupa de la sustracción de menores a través de las fronteras de los países.

Ella está pidiendo una orden judicial exigiendo que Joe haga los pasaportes y le devuelva a las niñas.

No olvidemos que la pareja vendió su casa de Miami el mes pasado y estaban planeando mudarse a Inglaterra, comenzando su búsqueda de un lugar en el extranjero en diciembre pasado.

Sophie argumenta que han estado viviendo en el Reino Unido desde hace 5 meses, e incluso vendió la casa de Miami el mes antes de que él presentó.

Fat Joe is bringing back-to-school cheer to his Bronx hometown by donating over $100,000 worth of brand-new clothes to more than 600 students!!!

TMZ Hip Hop got this video of Joe surprising high school students Thursday morning at The Eagle Academy for Young Men ... giving them a pep talk straight from the heart of his life experience!!!

Joe told the kids he could relate to their lives, having grown up right around the corner and told them he knew their journey wasn't easy.

We're told Joe and his team from UpNYC personally handed out bags of new clothing ... including sweatsuits, tracksuits, t-shirts, shorts and sneakers.

The BX-bred rapper had a busy morning.

In addition to Eagle Academy, the team also visited middle schoolers at I.S. 219 New Venture School and elementary students at P.S. 146 Edward Collins ... Joe's childhood alma mater.

The future leaders from the BX weren't the only ones benefitting from Santa Joe this week. Former President Bill Clinton was blessed with a rare pair of the Terror Squad Air Force 1s ... and his facial expression says he loved them.

The best play in Wednesday's Braves game wasn't made by Ronald Acuna Jr. or Matt Olson ... no, a fan in the stands nabbed that honor when he impressively caught a home run ball -- while holding a baby!!

The wild scene played out in the second inning of Atlanta's tilt with Philadelphia at Truist Park ... when Phillies star Nick Castellanos smashed a ball 432 feet to dead center field.

As the ball cleared the wall, a Braves fan holding his child in one arm decided to make an attempt at pulling the souvenir in. And, as it turns out, the guy had some great hands ... 'cause he caught it -- without even remotely bothering his kid!!

Then, he showed off his arm too ... chucking the ball back onto the field in support of his hometown team.

The play was so impressive ... even the game's broadcasters had to highlight it while live on-air.

The afternoon at the park, though, didn't come with the happiest of endings for the Braves fan or his team ... the Phils won, 6-5.

Before this cute girl with bangs "dug her key into the side of a pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive," she was just diggin' in the dirt and getting her hands dirty in the garden, singing at her local church and growing up in Checotah, Oklahoma.

Aside from this girl dressed in green evolving into an "American Idol" queen, she has since taken home 8 Grammys and is the face (and voice) of Sunday Night Football! Some hot music stars she's collaborated with include Miranda Lambert and Brad Paisley.

Need one more hint? "Before He Cheats!"

Antes de que esta guapa chica con flequillo se dedicara a cantar, pasaba sus días cavando en la tierra, ensuciandose las manos en el jardín, cantando en su iglesia local y a crecer en Checotah, Oklahoma.

Además de convertirse en la reina de "American Idol", esta chica vestida de verde se ha llevado a casa 8 Grammys y es la cara (y la voz) del Sunday Night Football. Algunas de las estrellas musicales con las que ha colaborado son Miranda Lambert y Brad Paisley.

Tristan Thompson has been granted temporary guardianship over his little brother after he was left unable to care for himself following the sudden death of his mother.

A court hearing Wednesday determined the NBA player will now act as guardian to 17-year-old Amari. In the end, Tristan's petition for temporary guardianship was granted ... and a hearing on permanent guardianship was scheduled for November.

Tristan wasn't present in court during the hearing, but his attorney spoke on his behalf via Zoom.

TMZ broke the story ... Tristan filed for this a couple weeks ago, and the result today was expected. Nobody was contesting it, including Amari's father -- who Tristan says has been absent from his life.

Amari's dad, Trevor Douglas Thompson, did not receive notice of Wednesday's proceeding because his whereabouts are apparently unknown. Tristan's side claims Trevor has no involvement in Amari's life.

Now that Tristan has been given the green light to take responsibility for Amari, the issue of conservatorship is also on the table as he approaches 18. Amari cannot take care of himself, as he faces mental and physical disabilities, so Tristan is stepping in.

TMZ broke the story -- Tristan's mother, Andrea, died suddenly earlier this year -- which is why Tristan is making the moves to protect his brother. Amari has already been introduced to the KarJenners -- and Tristan will presumably continue to have their support through this.

The last thing that was touched on was money left behind in Andrea's probate estate -- which amounts to about $103k. It's not available for disbursement yet, but Tristan is going to oversee that cash for Amari as well.

Kevin Costner y su próximamente ex esposa, Christine Baumgautner, parecían destinados a pelear por su divorcio durante meses. Pero todo llegó a su fin el martes.... lo que hace aún más interesante, y sorprendente, mirar para atrás y ver cómo fue que llegaron aquí.

Empezando el camino desde el principio, tenemos que remontarnos a mayo, cuando Christine presentó por primera vez los papeles para poner fin a su matrimonio. La ruptura tenía todos los indicios de ser fea, empezando por el hecho de que su decisión de divorciarse de Kevin salió aparentemente de la nada ... y que lo sorprendió por completo.

Lo que siguió en los futuros cinco meses, puede calificarse como uno de los divorcios de celebridades más desagradables en la memoria reciente. Esto, a pesar del hecho de que había un acuerdo prenupcial firmando de antemano.

Desde el principio, Christine había indicado que pretendía impugnar la validez del acuerdo prenupcial, partiendo por el hecho de que puso resistencias incluso para salir de su casa, algo que era un requisito predeterminado si se divorciaban alguna vez.

Después de un montón de idas y venidas por ambos lados, Christine finalmente reculó y se fue al carajo, pero esperó a que casi se cumpliera la fecha límite a finales de julio para hacerlo. Tienen que tener en cuenta que Kevin le había dado más de un millón de dólares para conseguir su propio lugar, según lo que él ha dicho.

Además del drama de la vivienda, se añadió todo el desagradable asunto de la manutención de los hijos, que había sido impugnada por Christine desde el principio. Recordemos que en un comienzo, ella le pidió a un juez que le exigiera pagar a Kevin la suculenta suma de 248.000 dólares al mes para mantener a sus tres hijos adolescentes.

Kevin, por supuesto, se burló de eso e insistió en que el número realista probablemente estaba más cercano a los $63k al mes. Y aunque por poco tuvo que soltar $129k mensuales... finalmente un juez se puso de su lado en el asunto, y dictaminó que $63k era en realidad un monto adecuado para mantener a los niños.

En medio de todo este lío y las desaveniencias de dinero, los Costners se fueron de vacaciones -dos veces, en realidad- y sus hijos pudieron disfrutar de sus respectivos viajes con papá y mamá. Christine los llevó a Hawái durante una semana, mientras que Kevin voló a Aspen para compartir de un viaje rápido.

En agosto, volvieron a la mesa de los abogados, para acalarar si Christine "entendía" o no el acuerdo prenupcial que firmó hace mucho tiempo, algo que ella y sus abogados argumentaron que podría no haber sido totalmente claro para ella.

Kevin y Christine se presentaron vestidos de punta en blanco para la ocasión, y lo hicieron nuevamente ante un tribunal oficial para discutir detenidamente algunos puntos adicionales. Ambos se subieron al estrado para aclarar una serie de cosas, incluyendo los asuntos de dinero, losrumores de nuevas parejas y más.

Al final, un juez se puso del lado de Kevin en esto también y dijo que el acuerdo prenupcial era claro, y ordenaba a Christine a pagar un poco más de $14k para litigar este detalle minúsculo. Christine, a continuación, se volvió y dijo que no estaba siendo quisquillosa, sino que preventivamente estaba pidiendo más dinero a Kevin para cubrir los honorarios anticipados de sus abogados (más de $ 885k), sobre la manutención conyugal.

Esta fue la última ofensiva hace apenas unos días atrás, y no parecía haber un final cercano hasta que en un movimiento sorpresa, Christine y Kevin decidieron bajar sus armas.

Como informamos, ambos llegaron a un acuerdo, cuyos términos se mantienen en privado por ahora. Si parecía que Christine estaba dando tumbo tras tumbo en la corte, hoy podría haberse anotado una pequeña victoria después de todo. De acuerdo a nuestras fuentes, se fue con más dinero de lo que se le debía en virtud de los términos originales de su acuerdo prenupcial. Y así es como termina todo...

Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner seemed destined to fight out their divorce for months to come in court -- but now that anger-fueled ride's come to a screeching halt with their settlement ... which makes this look-back at how they got here all the more eye-popping.

Going all the way back to early May -- when CB first filed to end their marriage -- this uncoupling had all the markings of being ugly, starting with the fact her decision to divorce Kevin completely blindsided him.

What proceeded over the next 5 months amounted to one of the nastiest celeb divorces in recent memory ... despite the fact they had a prenup in place.

Pretty much from the jump, Christine indicated she had plans to challenge the validity of the prenup -- starting with the fact she put up a fight about moving out of their house ... even though the prenup required her to get out if she were to divorce him.

After A LOT of back and forth in court and a judge's ruling ... Christine did move out by the court-ordered deadline in late July. Keep in mind, Kevin said he'd already given her over a million bucks to get her own pad.

In addition to the housing drama ... there was the acrimonious issue of child support, which had been challenged by Christine since the beginning. At first, she'd asked a judge to make Kevin pay a whopping $248,000/month to support their 3 teenage kids.

Kevin, of course, scoffed at that ... insisting the realistic number was probably closer to $63k/mo. -- and while he had to cough up $129k/mo as an interim amount, the judge ultimately sided with him on this matter, ruling the $63k was enough to sustain the children.

Amid all this mudslinging and money talk, the Costners went on vacation -- 2 different ones, actually ... and their kiddos got to enjoy respective trips with Mom and Dad. Christine took them to Hawaii for a week, and then KC flew them out to Aspen for some QT.

Come August, it was back to the lawyers' table ... with both Kevin and Christine sitting for a deposition to settle the issue of whether Christine "understood" the prenup she signed way back before their 2004 wedding ... something she and her lawyers argued might not have been totally clear to her.

Kevin and Christine showed up dressed to the nines for that depo ... and then testified all over again in court to hash out more points, including money, rumored partners and more.

In the end, a judge sided with Kevin on this as well -- saying the prenup was clear, and ordered Christine to pay a little more than $14k to cover Kevin's attorney fees for litigating this minute detail.

Christine then signaled she wasn't done nitpicking ... asking for more cash from Kevin to cover her attorney fees, which she estimated at $885k.

That was the latest barb just a few days ago ... and there appeared to be no end in sight. Then, just this week, Christine and Kevin buried the hatchet in a surprise move.

As we reported ... they settled, the terms of which are being kept private for now. While Christine seemed to be taking L after L in court, it sounds like she might've clocked a small win in the end -- as our sources tell us she walked away with more dough than what she was due under the original terms of their prenup.
