Michael Lohan may spend the rest of 2025 behind bars ... 'cause a judge ordered him to spend 9 months in jail for violating his probation when he was arrested back in February, TMZ has learned.

The father of Lindsay Lohan was in court Wednesday in Florida, where the judge hit him with jail time, but noted he'll receive a credit of 38 days for time served.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us ... Lohan pled guilty to violating his probation in connection with his February arrest in Texas on a "continuous violence against the family" felony assault charge for allegedly beating up Kate Lohan.

9:57 AM PT -- Shelly, Sophie Nyweide’s mom, tells TMZ … “We are very distraught and mourning. All I can say is her time acting was brief but very happy. She wasn't a child star in the least and wasn't subjected to anything hurtful on those films. She was always safe on those sets. Please let her rest in peace now.

"My knowledge is she was using drugs and was a tiny young woman. She was with other people when she died. I didn't know them. There is an investigation ongoing. The autopsy results are not in. They said it would take 6-8 weeks. So I can't say definitively.”

Actress Sophie Nyweide -- famous for her roles in "Mammoth" and "An Invisible Sign" -- is dead.

Sophie died April 14 in Bennington, VT ... according to her family. The cause of death is unclear.

In an obituary, Sophie's family hints at what led to her early death, saying ... "Sophie was a kind and trusting girl. Often this left her open to being taken advantage of by others. She wrote and drew voraciously, and much of this art depicts the depth she had, and it also represents the pain she suffered. Many of her writings and artwork are roadmaps of her struggles and traumas."

Sydney Sweeney just made us all do a double-take ... because we just spotted her with her ex-fiancé, Jonathan Davino, for the second time this month.

Check out the pics ... the "Euphoria" star and Jonathan were photographed out and about in the Florida Keys over the weekend with her new German Shepherd puppy just weeks after they were seen trying to keep a low profile during a Los Angeles lunch rendezvous.

Though the actress wasn't all glammed up, she didn't appear to be trying to lay low like she was a few weeks ago. She dressed casually for their outing ... sporting oversized denim shorts paired with a white sweater and a blue and white baseball cap.

Leonardo DiCaprio was a big fan of the late Pope Francis — praising his work on environmental issues and recalling a story about their 2016 meeting.

The iconic actor took to Instagram on Monday and posted a heartfelt message, with two photos showing their get-together at the Vatican. In one pic, they're seen shaking hands -- in the other, they're leafing through books together.

Their meeting roughly coincided with the release of the 2016 documentary about climate change, "Before The Flood," which DiCaprio co-produced. As you know, Leo is a major environmental activist.

George Clooney is staying cool after Trump labeled him a "second-rate movie star" and "failed political pundit" -- and let’s just say, the shade didn’t exactly rattle his espresso.

The actor was chatting it up with Gayle King on "CBS Mornings" and had a laugh about the movie star jab, even joking it might be true -- no biggie. But, when it came to Trump’s political dig, Clooney didn’t hold back, delivering a direct and unapologetic response.

George made it crystal clear he doesn't give a flying flip about Trump’s opinion, saying it's not his job to please the president, 'cause his real job is to speak the truth every chance he gets.

Looks like Samuel, Ben’s son with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, was getting the royal treatment -- 'cause before their toy shopping spree, the father-son duo also made a pit stop at World Market.

Pope Francis is being mourned by celebrities across the globe, after he died on Easter Monday.

Sam Asghari says he's worked with a few legends in his career already ... and one in particular has inspired him -- not with his words, but by his actions.

Asghari admits it's hard to maintain his body like he does ... and, quite frankly, it's not feasible for everyone for a variety of reasons -- but, he does it because he has to bring his A-game when he's around some film legends.

Jennifer Lopez's likely got some engines revving ... because she arrived at the F1 Grand Prix in Saudi Arabia looking hotter than the sun on a racetrack!
