Gabby Windey says she hasn't seen a dime from the prize money she won on "Traitors" ... but there's a paperwork issue holding up the payment and Gabby doesn't seem to be sweating it.

We got the reality TV star at LAX and our photog asked her about her claim that NBC has not paid her the $40,860 she won on the show.

Gabby tells us she still hasn't been paid since first raising the issue on "Watch What Happens Live" when she told Andy Cohen about it ... and she's hoping the deposit comes soon.

Kim Kardashian says her ex-husband Kris Humphries only partially paid for her lavish engagement ring, then took it back in the divorce.

On the latest episode of "The Kardashians," Kim reminisces with Khloe about her engagement rings from ex-husbands.

Kim reveals Humphries proposed with an 18-carat emerald cut from Lorraine Schwartz ... a step up from the 14-carat cushion cut engagement ring she got from her first husband, Damon Thomas.

Lucy Hale has a new man on the scene -- Aussie heartthrob Harry Jowsey -- but they're not fully committed just yet … 'cause TMZ’s learned it’s all pretty casual for now.

A source with direct knowledge tells TMZ the "Pretty Little Liars" star and the "Too Hot To Handle" alum are just casually dating -- and it doesn't look like anything serious just yet.

While Harry didn’t name-drop Lucy, he did gush on his 'Boyfriend Material' podcast about how refreshing it is to date someone who supports his career -- unlike an ex who got competitive and mad whenever he landed new gigs.

Former reality TV stars Kyndra Mayo and Cami Edwards were seniors in high school when they became known for being the popular besties -- planning and throwing ragers at their luxurious Orange County homes -- on the hit MTV reality show "Laguna Beach" back in 2006.

Kyndra and Cami brought the drama and followed the footsteps of the OG's, Lauren Conrad and Kristin Cavallari, and were joined by Tessa Keller, Cameron Brinkman and Lexie Contursi.

Today, Kyndra and Cami are still close and are raising their daughters in Orange County.

"These are the best days of our lives" ... because TMZ has learned the brand-new cast for Season 12 of "Vanderpump Rules" will begin filming in a few weeks.

Production sources tell us ... the rebooted Bravo series will go into production in early April. We're told the cast is made up of 14 members ... some will be full-time and others will be friends of the cast.

We're told the rebooted version of the long-running series will keep its original formula, which will take viewers inside the hookups, feuds and drama surrounding Lisa Vanderpump's West Hollywood restaurant, SUR. We're told the SUR-vers' homes and lives outside the restaurant will be the meat of the show.

Kristin Cavallari just took a trip down memory lane -- AKA, revisiting relationships with her exes, and which one she’d get back with ... only hypothetically, of course!

The former "Laguna Beach" star opened up the floor for questions during a live taping of the “Let’s Be Honest" Podcast Tour which is being filmed as a new reality show for E!

TMZ obtained a clip from the Boston show, one fan asked her which ex she’d spend the rest of her life with, if she were forced to choose.

Kristin wasn’t exactly thrilled with the question, joking she’d "honestly, rather f***ing die," but she was determined to give an answer -- eventually picking her most recent ex, Mark Estes.

"Snow White" is in its big release week, but instead of excitement, the controversy is still going strong -- and Ali Chapman tells us she totally gets why fans are frustrated.

We spoke with Ali, her hubby Matt McArthy, and their pal Jeff Beacher, owner of Beacher's Madhouse, at Craig's in L.A. Tuesday -- where she told TMZ the whole point of the OG film was the 7 dwarfs ... so that was 7 missed chances for actors like her who would’ve loved to be part of the live-action remake.

Catch the video -- because they all have a lot to say! "Freakshow" star Ali added that Disney had the perfect opportunity to represent the Little People community, only to miss the mark and shut them out in the process.

"Pawn Stars" star Corey Harrison is thrilled his father, Rick, is getting married -- and he's more than happy to be his best man ... if that's what Rick decides.

Corey tells TMZ ... this will be the third time he's attending one of Rick's weddings -- having been by his dad's side when he got hitched to Tracy Harrison in 1986 and Deanna Burditt in 2013.

"Big Hoss" says he'd be honored to be his dad's best man, but Rick shouldn't expect a bachelor party or a gift. Corey doesn’t think his dad would want a bachelor party, and jokes, "You can't keep getting married every time you need a toaster!"

"Love on the Spectrum" is gearing up for its third season, and one of the main stars, Connor Tomlinson, is using his experience on the show to dish out dating advice.

We caught up with Connor and his mom, Lise, at LAX Tuesday, and let’s just say we got a crash course in dating from him -- He’s got some very handy tips and tricks for all the single guys out there looking for love.

Having been on the show for S2 and the upcoming third season, which follows young adults on the autism spectrum navigating dating, it’s clear Connor’s picked up a ton of pointers -- so you’ll want to catch them all in our full clip!

Ariana Biermann got it from her mama, Kim Zolciak, because the reality TV personality was snappin' away in Alaska -- sharing her fun couple's vacay with her man, Hudson Mcleroy.

Staying warm on the mountaintops, the two lovebirds held on tight to each other with the serene snow as the backdrop!

Ariana and Hudson also hit the slopes for some skiing, climbed into a helicopter for a scenic ride, and were even treated to the Northern Lights!!!

The Florida inmate who cops say was communicating with the wife of "Ghost Adventures" star Aaron Goodwin as part of her alleged murder-for-hire plot is a convicted killer himself ... TMZ has learned.

Police say Aaron's wife, Victoria Goodwin, hatched a plan to off her husband to get out of her marriage ... and she allegedly enlisted a prisoner named Grant Amato to help her see the diabolical plan through.

Well, we did some digging and discovered Amato is serving a life sentence for a triple murder involving his family. A former nurse, Amato was found guilty in 2019 of fatally shooting his father, mother and brother in their Florida home.

The moment Jax Taylor got served with divorce papers is captured in a nail-biting clip from the trailer for season two of "The Valley."

The lengthy trailer makes it clear that Jax and Brittany Cartwright’s marriage will be a key storyline this season, and we get a dramatic sneak peek where Jax opens his front door and -- bam -- he’s hit with the papers.

TMZ was the first to break the news that the moment went down in front of cameras in August last year, which came after we confirmed they had separated a few months earlier.

Tristan Tate is ripping James Kennedy a new one ... blasting the "Vanderpump Rules" alum for deleting a photo of them together and caving to online backlash.

Andrew's brother unloaded on James on social media, explaining the lead up to their photo over the weekend in Las Vegas, which James posted and then scrubbed from his account.

Tristan claims James "begged and kissed my a** for 30 minutes straight and called me a hero. He knew EXACTLY who I was and what content I made."

Kristin Cavallari brought the beach to The Windy City over the weekend when she invited several OG "Laguna Beach" cast members onto the stage during a live taping of her "Let’s Be Honest" podcast.

KC raved about the experience on Insta ... sharing a snap of herself chatting with her former costars Alex Murrel, Jason Wahler, Jess Revans, Lala Olsen and Talan Torriero onstage in Chicago and sending them love in her caption from the taping, which was part of her Headline Tour.

Noticeably missing were Lauren Conrad and Stephen Colletti -- with whom Kristin notoriously had a dramatic love triangle during the show's three seasons.

Backstreet Boys singer Brian Littrell could barely keep it together as he stood outside the doors during his 22-year-old son Baylee's audition for "American Idol" on Sunday night's show.

Brian got visibly emotional as he told cameras how "proud" he is of his son during the Season 23 premiere of the singing competition, explaining ... "He's obviously grown up in the business and I think he's cut out for it."

The proud papa was also thrilled to join his son in his audition at judge Luke Bryan's request. They seamlessly harmonized to the chorus of Baylee's original song "Waiting on Myself to Die" ... and Brian choked up again as Baylee was praised by all three judges -- including Lionel Richie and Carrie Underwood.

Lele Pons is pregnant ... making the announcement with a fun photo shoot -- and, the news caused "Too Hot to Handle" star Harry Jowsey to cry.

The model and influencer posted on IG just a few hours ago ... sharing pics from an intimate photo shoot with her husband, singer Guaynaa.

The couple -- who celebrated their two-year wedding anniversary a few days ago -- look over the moon in the snaps ... with Guaynaa rubbing Lele's tummy and the two posing in a field and a bedroom.
