The man accused of beating up a woman in London while she was on the phone with Barron Trump was just sentenced to 4 years in prison ... according to The Associated Press.

Here’s the deal … Barron was on a FaceTime call with a woman when things apparently turned violent in January 2025. The woman later told authorities her ex, Matvei Rumiantsev, started attacking her mid-call -- essentially using her as a punching bag during the incident.

Barron then reported the incident to UK police, which they say ultimately helped build the case … leading to Rumiantsev’s conviction for assault causing actual bodily harm.  He was sentenced to 4 years in total Friday … 2 years for the assault conviction and another 2 years for perverting the course of justice ... after prosecutors say the 23-year-old actually wrote to the woman from behind bars, pressuring her to take back her accusations.

Britney Spears is back on Instagram after her DUI arrest 3 weeks ago, capturing some cute clips with her son Jayden Federline before the footage gets a little ... odd.

She stops abruptly, saying ... "I'm composure. I'm being very composed."

Tuesday, a New Mexico jury found Meta liable for failing to protect kids from sexual predators … and the company was ordered to pony up $375M in damages. Then on Wednesday, an L.A. jury found both Meta and YouTube liable in a separate social media addiction trial, finding the companies designed their platforms to be addictive to young users.

OpenAI is shuttering popular video-creation app Sora the company said in a statement Tuesday.

The company announced on X ... "We’re saying goodbye to Sora. To everyone who created with Sora, shared it, and built community around it: thank you. What you made with Sora mattered, and we know this news is disappointing."

The platform utilized generative A.I. to turn user-provided text prompts into realistic-looking videos ... of pretty much anything.

Last year, Sora was the focal point of a "South Park" episode -- where the characters were using the app to make a bunch of deepfake revenge videos of each other.

And in December, OpenAI made a 3-year deal with Disney ... allowing Sora users to create videos from more than 200 characters across their IP -- including Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and, of course, Disney. Disney+ was even adding some of these videos to its streaming service.

In the wake of the news, the media conglomerate pulled the plug on the OpenAI agreement. A Disney rep told Variety in a statement they "respect" the move to axe Sora and "appreciate the constructive collaboration."

Disney said ... "We will continue to engage with A.I. platforms to find new ways to meet fans where they are while responsibly embracing new technologies that respect IP and the rights of creators."

"Many of you have sent prayers my way, and I appreciate them deeply. My approach is to be proactive as I face this current challenge."
