Marcellus Wiley had a different legal issue facing him before he was arrested for domestic violence ... a bank sued him for allegedly failing to pay back a half-million-dollar loan.

According to the suit -- filed back in December 2025 -- Marcellus and his company, "Dat Dude Entertainment," took out a loan from Preferred Bank in May 2023 with the promise of paying it all back after one year.

The bank says it never got the money -- or any of the accrued interest payments it says it's owed ... despite agreeing to give Marcellus several extensions until December 2025 to pay it back.

Marcellus Wiley is calling his wife's allegations against him flat out false ... speaking out after Annemarie Wiley filed for divorce and obtained a temporary restraining order against him.

The former NFL star took to X on Tuesday to address the accusations in Annemarie's divorce filing, writing ... "I love my children with everything I am. My highest priority has always been protecting them and preserving the relationship they have with both of their parents."

He added ... "Because of the public allegations made against me by Annemarie, I have been forced to respond with evidence rather than emotion. More importantly, I owe it to my children to truthfully document what they and I have endured."

Annemarie Wiley is no longer in touch with her former 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' castmates ... but TMZ has learned that doesn't mean they've stopped caring about what she's going through amid her nasty divorce from Marcellus Wiley.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Annemarie gradually lost touch with her former castmates after exiting the Bravo series in 2024. She joined the show as Kyle Richards' friend and neighbor and also shared a friendly rapport with Erika Jayne during her lone season, though she often clashed with Sutton Stracke and Crystal Kung Minkoff.

We're told there hasn't been communication between Annemarie and her former 'RHOBH' castmates since her departure.

Erika Jayne is firing back at claims she conspired with the Secret Service to bring down a fashion designer ... TMZ has learned.

The 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star, whose real name is Erika Girardi, filed court docs, obtained by TMZ, responding to the $18 Million lawsuit fashion designer Chris Psaila filed against her in late 2023. Erika denies any wrongdoing and says she was never part of a scheme to target Chris.

Chris, who runs the fashion brand Marco Marco, alleges Erika falsely told law enforcement he misused her credit card and rang up roughly $800,000 in fraudulent charges in 2015 and 2016.

If you wanted to do a check-in with 'Real Housewives of New York' star Dorinda Medley ... her response might be 'not well, b****!" ... because she is taking her neighbor to court for alleging building on a shed that touches her property!

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ ... Dorinda is asking the judge to find that her neighbor's new shed, fence, and driveway encroach on her fancy property in Massachusetts.  She wants the judge to order the immediate removal of the neighbor's stuff on her property.

Dorinda claims the neighbor constructed a shed and expanded their driveway onto her property ... which the New York housewife eventually noticed and hired a land surveyor in May to complete a survey of the two properties that determined the encroachments were, in fact, on her turf.

Watching Tamar Braxton and Kandi Burruss try to play nice during a photo op may be one of the funniest things you see all day.

They were lined up on stage alongside greats like Brandy, Monica, and Missy Elliott -- who was awarded the Essence Icon Award -- for Essence Fest's Black Women in Music ceremony on Sunday ... and had an awkward little moment before cameras started flashing.

You can see in the clip, Tamar reaches across Monica to grab Kandi's hand to say hi ... but Kandi clearly wasn't here for it.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, a Florida judge entered a no-contact order barring Marcellus from contacting Annemarie or coming within 500 feet of her or the home.

The order also instructs Marcellus not to reach out to his wife on social media or have any third party send her messages.

1:15 PM PT -- Marcellus addresses the allegations on Monday, writing, "I’m deeply grateful for the love, prayers, and concern for me and my itty bitties. Your support is fully appreciated. I completely and unequivocally deny these allegations, and I’m certain the truth will prevail."

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ ... Marcellus and Annemarie were inside a hotel room in Orlando, Florida, on Saturday afternoon when things went awry and the former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star called police to report a battery.

When officers arrived at the World Marriott, they say Annemarie told them she wanted her husband removed from their room because she was afraid of him after he threatened to take her life. The docs say their three children were also in the room along with other kids, all of whom were at the hotel to attend a basketball tournament.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum Peter Thomas is set to start filming a new reality show following his release from prison, TMZ has learned.

He explained he is well-known from his days on 'RHOA' and that he has a large following on social media and as a public speaker. He said he has been using his platform to inform the public of the importance of paying their taxes. 

Milania Giudice doesn't seem to be sweating her current legal drama ... but she's sure trying to make things hot with her latest thirst traps -- and fiery new red hair!

MG posted a series of smoking snaps in a little black bikini ... lounging poolside without a care in the world -- with the caption, "Redemption Season."

It would sure seem like Milania is referring to her recent arrest for alleged assault ... which all stemmed from her older sister, Gabriella, calling the police after Milania was allegedly acting erratically.

Sorry 'Real Housewives of Rhode Island' fans ... Liz McGraw will NOT be returning for the second season of the Ocean State's reality TV series.

Liz confirmed her departure in a social media Wednesday ... explaining she wants to "take a step back" and focus on her family, work, and passions.

She says she will be "rooting for the continued success of this franchise" ... so it seems like there's no animosity ... despite some majorly unfinished business with Jo-Ellen Tiberi.

The "Wild Things" star filed new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, claiming Aaron has spread all sorts of private information about her to the media in the wake of their split.

Denise says Aaron wants her to turn over bank statements and information about her pay for "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" ... but she insists much of that information is subject to confidentiality agreements with production companies, and she wants to make sure a protective order is in place before she sends them over.

Milania Giudice is breaking her silence on her assault arrest ... and it sounds like she's way more concerned about a fake mug shot floating around than she is about the case.

Milania posted a series of TikToks on Sunday night addressing her legal issues and blasting folks for believing a photo going viral on social media is really her mug shot.

Teresa Giudice's daughter says she looks way hotter in her actual mugshot than the A.I. slop that's floating around ... and she says she's going to learn from her arrest because "s** happens."

Pinky Cole must be a glutton for punishment, because she is not sweatin' her income being revealed as part of her ongoing bankruptcy.

Check out the video ... we got the 'RHOA' star out in NYC and our photog asked how she's feeling about her dire financial situation.

Pinky's chillin' really ... and that's mostly because she says her restaurant Slutty Vegan is doing very well ... so well, in fact, she's making it a franchise!
