Mama June se hace cargo de la custodia de una de las hijas de Anna 'Chickadee' Cardwell, TMZ ha indagado.

Fuentes familiares le dicen a TMZ que Mamá junio está en custodia de la hija de 11 años de Anna Kaitlyn.

Anna, que murió el sábado después de una difícil batalla contra el cáncer, tenía dos hijas con dos hombres diferentes y nuestras fuentes dicen Kylee de 8 años de edad, ahora está viviendo con su padre biológico, Michael.

Nos dicen que la familia tenía un plan en marcha para Kylee a vivir con su padre si algo le sucediera a Anna, que en enero fue diagnosticado con cáncer en etapa 4.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que Kaitlyn y Mama June tienen un vínculo muy estrecho y mudarse a la casa de la abuela es la mejor situación para ella.

Fuimos los primeros en informar que Anna se casó en secreto con su pareja, Eldridge Toney, en marzo después de enterarse de que tenía cáncer. Nos dicen que Eldridge tiene una relación muy estrecha tanto con Kaitlyn como con Kylee, y que seguirá involucrado en la vida de ambas también.

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann have plenty of issues, and now the judge in their divorce case is cracking down ... ordering them to mediation in an attempt to hammer out a settlement.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Kim and Kroy are being directed to complete a mediation session by a Jan. 31 deadline.

The judge says Kim and Kroy have "numerous unresolved issues" and thinks they could benefit from mediation through the county's alternative dispute resolution program.

Obviously, mediation does not always work or guarantee Kim and Kroy will resolve their issues ... but the court is at least forcing them to give it the old college try.

As we've told you ... Kim and Kroy are divorcing amid tons of financial woes, and there's been several police visits to their Georgia home over explosive fights.

Kim and Kroy also have 4 young children so working out custody issues through mediation may be no cakewalk.

El hombre que blandía una silla plegable en la tristemente célebre pelea frente al río de Alabama no pasará tiempo entre rejas... siempre y cuando cumpla los servicios a la comunidad.

De acuerdo con los registros judiciales, Reggie Bernard Ray entró en una declaración de culpabilidad condicional el lunes y fue sentenciado a 50 horas de servicio comunitario y una sentencia suspendida de 90 días.

Eso significa que si completa con éxito todo su servicio comunitario y mantiene su nariz limpia, no va a pasar ningún tiempo en la cárcel.

Como recordarás, Ray fue visto en el clip viral a principios de este año, saliendo en defensa de otro afroamericano, el co-capitán de un barco cercano, durante una disputa con los hombres blancos cuyo barco estaba bloqueando el barco de atraque.

Todo terminó en convirtió en una gran pelea, con Ray haciendo una aparición memorable por el uso de una silla en la contienda, el incidente ha generado desde entonces múltiples memes e incluso mercancía.

Big update from the Jonathan Majors assault trial ... the driver of the SUV in which Majors and Grace Jabbari were fighting, took the stand and testified he thought she hit the movie star.

Jonathan is accused of roughing up Grace in the back of their ride while trying to get his phone back after she believed she'd caught him texting another woman -- but the driver's testimony paints Grace as the aggressor, not the other way around.

Taking the stand Monday and speaking through an interpreter, the driver testified he kept his eyes on the road as Jonathan and Grace fought in the back of his Escalade back in March, telling the jury he "had a feeling the girl had hit the boy ... because of the way that she was fighting, and the sounds produced."

The driver also testified Grace demanded to see Jonathan's phone, saying ... "The girl became very angry." The driver also said, "He was not doing anything, she was doing it," and that Jonathan was "trying to get rid" of Grace.

It's an interesting twist in the trial ... last week, text messages between Jonathan and Grace were read aloud in court, including a September 2022 exchange where they seemingly referred to some sort of altercation in London.

In the text messages, Jonathan wrote ...  "They will ask you questions, and as I don't think you actually protect us, it could lead to investigation even if you do lie, and they suspect something."

Jabbari then replied, "I will tell the doctor I bumped my head if I go. I'm going to give it one more day, but I can't sleep and I need some stronger pain killers. That's all: why would I tell them what really happened when it's clear I want to be with you."

The car service driver also testified Jonathan and Grace both left his car at one point, arguing outside on a street corner in Manhattan ... and said Majors was "pushing her back into the car to get rid of her."

The man wielding a folding chair in the infamous Alabama Riverfront brawl won't spend any time behind bars in his case ... if he completes his community service, that is.

According to court records, Reggie Bernard Ray entered a conditional guilty plea Monday, and in exchange, was hit with 50 hours of community service and a 90-day suspended sentence.

That means if he successfully completes all his community service and keeps his nose clean, he won't do any time in jail.

You'll recall, Ray was seen in the viral clip earlier this year, coming to the defense of another Black man -- the co-captain of a nearby riverboat -- during a dispute with white men whose boat was blocking the riverboat from docking.

It quickly grew into a huge brawl, with Ray making a memorable appearance by swinging the chair at one of the white men ... the incident has since spawned multiple memes and even some merch.

Elon Musk brought an important guest to the Army-Navy Game Saturday ... his 3-year-old son ... and there's backstory here.

X Æ A-Xii was perched on his dad's shoulders as they watched Army beat its rival by a 17-11 margin.

Elon and son stood out ... they were in civilian duds and surrounded by uniformed fans.

The two were all smiles as they posed with the Army Mules mascot at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts.

Elon was rooting for the winning team ... he's an Army fan.

As for the backstory ... Elon and Grimes are in a custody fight over their 3 kids. She filed for parental rights back in October.

Elon Musk llevó a un invitado importante al partido de fútbol Army-Navy del sábado... su hijo de tres años.

X Æ A-Xii estaba encaramado a los hombros de su padre mientras veían al Ejército vencer a su rival por un margen de 17-11.

Elon y su hijo no pasaron desapercibidos. Se presentaron en trajes de civil y rodeados de fans uniformados.

Los dos eran todo sonrisas mientras posaban con la mascota Army Mules en el Gillette Stadium de Massachusetts.

Elon estaba apoyando al equipo ganador ya que es un fan del Ejército.

En cuanto a la historia de fondo, Elon y Grimes están en una lucha por la custodia de sus tres hijos. Ella solicitó la patria potestad en octubre.

Ser el hijo de Nia Long NO es una tarjeta que te libere de la cárcel, mucho menos cuando NO eres realmente su hijo, como descubrió un chico después de que supuestamente golpeara a un extraño con el poste de una carpa.

Las fuerzas policiales le dicen a TMZ que Tamir Rasool Morris fue detenido el pasado fin de semana en Santa Mónica después de haber sido acusado de golpear a una persona en el parque. Cuando los policías lo interrogaron, Morris dijo que su nombre era Massai Dorsey II, que es el nombre del verdadero hijo de Nia Long, de 23 años.

Lo que es espeluznante para Nia y su familia es que el tipo claramente ha investigado porque también le dio a los oficiales el día y el mes de nacimiento correctos de Massai, aunque se terminó equivocando con el año. Nos dicen que falló por 2 años.

Por supuesto, su red de mentiras se vinieron abajo cuando fue fichado y le tomaron las huellas dactilares, lo que reveló su verdadero nombre.

Según nuestras fuentes, la policía sospecha que Morris sacó la información de Massai de las redes sociales, pero esta quiere dejar claro que el verdadero Massai no estuvo involucrado en lo absoluto en el incidente, y parece que su nombre fue dado sin su conocimiento.

Being Nia Long's son is NOT a get-out-of-jail-free card, especially when you're NOT really her son at all -- as a guy found out after he allegedly smacked a stranger with a tent pole.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... Tamir Rasool Morris was arrested last weekend in Santa Monica where cops say he assaulted a random person in a park. When officers questioned him, Morris told them his name was Massai Dorsey II ... which is the name of Nia's actual 23-year-old son.

What's creepy for Nia and her fam is this guy's clearly done some research ... because he also gave officers Massai's correct birth day and month, but finally slipped up with the year. We're told he was off by 2 years.

Of course, his web of lies fell apart when he was booked and fingerprinted ... which revealed his real name.

According to our sources, cops suspect Morris pulled Massai's info from social media, but Santa Monica PD wants to make it clear ... the real Massai was not at all involved in the incident, and his name was given without his knowledge.

Jonathan Majors is gathering his thoughts after what you could argue was a rough week for him in court -- ending with some startling texts he once sent being read in front of the jury.

The embattled actor was spotted on a solo stroll through Manhattan Saturday, where he seemed to be on a coffee run -- as he ended up grabbing two and balanced them on his way back to wherever he was going.

Considering the eventful week, these pics are telling for many reasons -- for one, he's all by his lonesome ... this after his GF, Meagan Good, has come to every single court date of his -- including showing up the past several days during the trial -- and been right by his side.

No sign of her here though ... although, he could've been grabbing Joe for the two of them.

In any case, JM kept his little outing here stylish ... uniquely his style, that is. The dude was wearing a khaki peacoat -- which he eventually draped off his shoulders -- a white tee, black pants, shades and a matching golf cap. Like all his public appearances, he's dressed up.

Now, as for what might be on his mind ... well, a lot of things, we're sure -- including what's gonna happen to his career, regardless of what the jury ultimately decides in their verdict.

Fact is ... there's been some ugly revelations about him throughout the trial -- much of which came from Grace Jabbari's testimony about their relationship ... including claims he'd been verbally abusive to her in the past. Remember the whole Coretta Scott King thing?

Even more damning than just that, though, is what came to light Friday ... when text messages Majors had sent Jabbari back in September 2022 were read aloud in court.

They included exchanges between Majors and Jabbari, where the two of the appeared to refer to some sort of altercation in London ... with Majors writing at the time, "They will ask you questions, and as I don't think you actually protect us, it could lead to investigation even if you do lie, and they suspect something."

Jabbari replied, "I will tell the doctor I bumped my head if I go. I'm going to give it one more day, but I can't sleep and I need some stronger pain killers. That's all: why would I tell them what really happened when it's clear I want to be with you."

That coupled with the testimony she gave about other times he'd allegedly shown aggression around her have not landed well with the public (just check Twitter/X). Because so much of all these old alleged incidents have been allowed to be aired out in court, it feels like it almost doesn't matter if he's found guilty or not -- from our POV, anyway.

Of course, we'll see what the jury has to say about it all in the end -- and more importantly, what Disney wants to do in the aftermath. They're far and away his biggest employer right now, and there's a lot of money and work on the line depending on how things shake out.

Majors' trial continues next week, and we're expecting to hear from other key witnesses -- including the car service driver, who could presumably speak on the alleged incident in his vehicle and answer once and for all ... did the guy brutalize her back there or not???

Jonathan Majors está dedicando tiempo a la reflexión después de lo que podría llamarse una semana difícil en la corte y que terminó con algunos textos sorprendentes que alguna vez envió a su exnovia y se leyeron ante el jurado.

El asediado actor fue visto paseando solo por Manhattan este sábado, donde se lo vio comprando dos cafés y se los llevó en su camino de regreso.

Teniendo en cuenta la acontecida semana que tuvo, estas fotos son reveladoras por muchas razones. Por un lado, está solo. Esto, después de que su novia Meagan Good, llegara a cada una de sus citas en la corte, incluyendo la aparición de los últimos días durante el juicio, para acompañarlo.

Pese a ello, no hay rastro de ella aquí. Aunque podría haber estado agarrando los cafés para los dos.

En cualquier caso, Jonathan Majors mantuvo su salida con estilo. El tipo llevaba un chaquetón de color caqui, una camiseta blanca, pantalones negros, gafas de sol y una gorra de golf a juego. Como en todas sus apariciones públicas, iba elegante.

Ahora, en cuanto a lo que podría estar en su mente. Bueno, pueden ser un montón de cosas, incluyendo lo que va a pasar con su carrera, independientemente de lo que el jurado decida finalmente en su veredicto.

La verdad es que han habido algunas revelaciones feas sobre el actor durante el juicio, gran parte de las cuales vinieron del testimonio de Grace Jabbari sobre su relación, entre ellas, que había sido verbalmente abusivo con ella en el pasado. ¿Recuerdan todo el asunto de Coretta Scott King?

Aún más condenatorio que eso, sin embargo, es lo que salió a la luz el viernes. Esto es los mensajes de texto que Majors le envió a Jabbari en septiembre de 2022 y que fueron leídos en voz alta en el tribunal.

Estos incluían intercambios entre Majors y Jabbari, donde los dos parecían referirse a algún tipo de altercado en Londres. Majors escribió en ese momento: "Te harán preguntas, y como no creo que nos protejas, podría dar lugar a una investigación, incluso si mientes y sospechan algo".

Jabbari respondió: "Le diré al médico que me golpeé la cabeza si voy. Voy a darle un día más, pero no puedo dormir y necesito analgésicos más fuertes. Eso es todo: para qué les voy a contar lo que pasó de verdad si está claro que quiero estar contigo".

Eso unido al testimonio que dio sobre otras ocasiones en las que supuestamente él fue agresivo con ella, no han sentado nada bien al público (no hay más que ver Twitter/X). Debido a que se ha permitido que todos estos supuestos incidentes se aireen en el tribunal, parece que casi no importa si se lo declara culpable o no, desde nuestro punto de vista.

Por supuesto, veremos lo que el jurado tiene que decir al final y, lo que es más importante, lo que Disney quiere hacer después. Ellos son de lejos su mayor empleador en este momento y hay un montón de dinero y trabajo en juego dependiendo de cómo resulten las cosas.

El juicio de Majors seguirá la semana que viene y estamos esperando escuchar a otros testigos clave, incluyendo al conductor del carro que estuvo con ellos esa noche, el que presumiblemente podría hablar sobre el presunto incidente en su vehículo y responder de una vez por todas, ¿el tipo fue agresivo con ella o no?

It's a Christmas miracle come early -- as Angela White, formerly Blac Chyna, and Tyga have finally settled their years-long custody dispute over their son, King Cairo -- and Tyga won't have to pay child support.

Sources with direct knowledge of the settlement tell us both parents have come to a surprisingly amicable arrangement ... they'll have joint legal and physical custody, and will both have the right to make decisions on the 11-year-old's health, education and general welfare.

When it comes to parenting, we're told Chyna will get King every weekend from Friday to Monday and Tyga will have him the rest of the time.

What's more ... the court ordered neither parent can talk poorly about the other around King, and they'll enroll in a program to monitor communication back and forth about co-parenting.

TMZ broke the story ... in custody docs, Chyna claimed she had resorted to selling her personal belongings -- including clothes, purses and shoes -- in order to stay afloat, making around $178K in the process. However, she claimed the financial help from selling the goods would only be temporary, and she needed money from Tyga.

Turns out, Tyga won't have to pay up ... and the new arrangement should hopefully make for a better environment for their kiddo, too.

Win, win?

Ethan Crumbley -- the teenager who killed 4 students during a shooting rampage at a Michigan high school -- has just been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

The 17-year-old was given his sentence Friday ... you'll recall, Crumbley killed 4 of his classmates and wounded 7 other people when he opened fire at Oxford High School, in the Detriot suburb of Oxford Township, MI.

Crumbley told the court he was "a really bad person" before he was handed his hefty sentence ... adding he's been trying to do better in his life but admits, "I have done terrible things that no one should ever do."

Victim Kylie Ossege, who was shot by Crumbley during the rampage, broke down in tears Friday while detailing the horrific incident ... which included the feeling of warm blood soaking into the carpet.

You'll recall, Crumbley pleaded guilty last year to 4 counts of first-degree murder, a count of terrorism causing death, and 19 other charges related to the deadly massacre.

Crumbley's parents, Jennifer and James, were also taken into custody, being charged with 4 counts of involuntary manslaughter -- one for each student who was killed. Their trial will begin next month.

Prosecutors said Jennifer and James knew about their son's mental health issues but still bought him the gun he used in the attack.

Harve Pierre, expresidente del sello de Diddy, Bad Boys Records, está criticando la demanda por violación que lo nombra entre los acusados y nos dice que no va a soportar que su nombre sea mancillado.

En una nueva declaración obtenida por TMZ Hip Hop, Pierre dice: "Este es un cuento de ficción. Nunca he participado, presenciado, ni he oído hablar de nada de esto, nunca. Estas repugnantes acusaciones son falsas y un intento desesperado por obtener beneficios económicos".

Y continúa: "Protegeré enérgicamente mi reputación y defenderé mi nombre. Los que me conocen reconocen que estas afirmaciones no son ciertas".

Pierre está acusado de seducir a un menor de edad en Detroit en 2003 para que se subiera a un jet privado y pasara el rato con él y Diddy en una sesión de grabación de Nueva York. Ella afirma que ahí los hombres la agredieron sexualmente en el baño del estudio.

En la demanda también se dice que Pierre se sentó y fumó crack de una lata de Pepsi mientras se producían las agresiones. Los detalles alegados por la denunciante Jane Doe son atroces y viciosos, pero Pierre niega rotundamente que nada de eso sea cierto.

Diddy ha mantenido su inocencia a lo largo de las múltiples demandas que ha enfrentado, incluyendo la que se resolvió rápidamente con su exnovia Cassie en noviembre.

Diddy's former President of Bad Boys Records, Harve Pierre, is slamming the gang rape lawsuit that named him as a defendant ... and he's telling us he won't stand for his name being sullied.

In a new statement obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, Pierre says, "This is a tale of fiction. I have never participated in, witnessed, nor heard of anything like this, ever. These disgusting allegations are false and a desperate attempt for financial gain."

He continues, "I will vigorously protect my reputation and defend my name. Those who know me recognize that these claims are not true."

Pierre stands accused of enticing a Detroit minor back in 2003 into hopping on a private jet to hang with him and Diddy for a NYC recording session ... where she claims the men sexually assaulted her in the studio bathroom.

The suit also claims Pierre sat back and smoked crack cocaine from a Pepsi can as the assaults took place. The details alleged by the Jane Doe accuser are heinous and vicious ... but Pierre adamantly denies any of it is true.

Diddy has maintained his innocence throughout the multiple lawsuits he's faced -- including the one he quickly settled with ex-girlfriend Cassie in November.

Sam Haskell Jr., el hombre acusado de asesinar a su esposa y a suegros, se presentó en la corte para su última comparecencia y estaba sin camisa, algo que los policías explican que se debió a sus pensamientos suicidas.

Haskell Jr. fue llevado a la sala del tribunal de Los Ángeles el jueves sin nada encima mientras era escoltado en el interior.

El oficial dentro de la sala del tribunal dijo que Haskell Jr. no llevaba una camiseta debido a ideaciones suicidas y explicó que inicialmente llevaba un chaleco de velcro que no tenía ningún material que pudiera ser usado para herirse a sí mismo, pero el chaleco seguía cayéndose y por eso decidieron quitárselo.

Como informamos, Haskell Jr. fue acusado de 3 cargos de asesinato el mes pasado, en relación con la muerte de su esposa de 37 años, Mei, y sus padres Gaoshan Li, de 72 años, y Yanxiang Wang, de 64 años de edad.

Recordemos que obtuvimos imágenes que parecían mostrar a Haskell tirando en un contenedor de basura lo que podría haber sido un cuerpo en Encino, California, y como ustedes recordarán, una persona que vivía en la calle más tarde informó que encontró un torso en ese mismo contenedor al día siguiente.
