Jay Cutler BLASTS Kristin Cavallari over finance claims following bitter divorce

Kristin Cavallari's ex Jay Cutler has accused his former wife of 'borderline slander' after she claimed to not have received any money from their divorce. The 42-year-old former NFL quarterback - who recently came under fire for a 'cruel act' - appeared on the Take It Outside podcast where he blasted the 38-year-old mother to his three children. He said: 'Let's think about this logically. "Not a penny," OK. Married for, I don't know, seven years or so, three kids. 'You can go and see how much I made in the NFL. It's online. You can see the contract from year to year and the total amount at the end of 12 years. So, you go to divorce and each side gets a lawyer and then you go to court and there's a judge.' He went on to say that 'there is not a judge in the state of Tennessee ' that would have signed an agreement which would state that Jay would 'keep every single dollar' he made throughout their marriage. The former Chicago Bears player seemed to be responding to what Kristin said in a June episode of her series Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour. At the time she talked about the funding for her lifestyle brand Uncommon James as she said: 'I wanted women to be able to afford great pieces that they could mix and match. 'We have just expanded tremendously. We have four stores, we're looking to open up a lot more. Our revenue is close to $50 million a year.' She went on toe explain that she owns her brand entirely before bringing up Jay's name. Kristin said: 'I've never taken any outside funding. I have never gotten a penny from my ex-husband. 'I didn't get any money from our divorce, so let's just clear that up. Thank you.' The two were married from 2013 until she filed for divorce in 2020. It was finalized in 2022. They share sons Camden, 12, Jaxon, 11, and daughter Saylor, nine. Jay was previously the highest paid quarterback in the NFL when he signed a massive seven-year, $126million contract with the Chicago Bears in January 2014.

Coney Island will host a Pee-wee Herman look-alike contest to celebrate 40 years of his Big Adventure

Grab your gray suit, polish up that red bow tie and practice your best 'I know you are, but what am I?'—because Coney Island is throwing a Pee-wee party for the ages. On Sunday, August 24, the boardwalk's resident arts hub Coney Island USA will stage its first-ever Pee-wee Herman Look-Alike Contest, honoring the late Paul Reubens, his beloved alter ego and the 40th anniversary of Pee-wee's Big Adventure. The event promises all the spectacle you'd expect from the nonprofit that invented the Mermaid Parade. 'Pee-wee Herman's body of work has left an indelible mark on American popular culture,' said Adam Rinn, Coney Island USA's artistic director and the contest's co-host. 'Our non-profit arts organization created the Mermaid Parade, so why not have a day where we can celebrate the colorful characters that Paul Reubens created?' Contestants won't be limited to Pee-wee's childlike persona. Registration categories include Best Pee-wee Herman, Pee-wee's Playhouse and Pee-wee Movie Character, meaning you could show up as Miss Yvonne, Cowboy Curtis, Jambi, Large Marge or any of the wonderfully weird characters from Reubens' universe. 'Coney Island is all about fun and spectacle,' said burlesque performer Little Brooklyn, who will co-produce and co-host. 'We can't wait to see how creative the people of New York City and beyond are going to get.' Registration begins at noon inside the Freak Bar, with the competition itself kicking off at 1pm on West 12th Street, right outside Coney Island USA's landmarked building at 1208 Surf Avenue. Expect amazing Coney-themed prizes, loud costumes and probably more than one awkward Pee-wee dance. The whole affair is free, so there's no excuse not to swing by the seaside, cheer on your favorite Playhouse doppelgänger and maybe channel your own inner Pee-wee. After all, it's not every day you get to celebrate one of America's most delightfully strange comic creations in the place that knows spectacle best.

Three Hollyoaks legends set to return after decades off-screen as soap brings back 90s stars for 30th anniversary

After decades off-screen these stars are coming back to celebrate the show's landmark birthday in style LOOK WHO'S BACK Three Hollyoaks legends set to return after decades off-screen as soap brings back 90s stars for 30th anniversary Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HOLLYOAKS is set to welcome back three iconic stars for its 30th anniversary – and it could mean something major in store for a fan favourite. The series is gearing up to mark its anniversary in style, and as part of it, familiar faces from the show's history will be popping up to check in on the village. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 James Redmond is returning as Finn for the 30th anniversary Credit: Getty 7 Dom was last seen heading to Spain to get married in Hollyoaks Later Credit: Alamy 7 Carol hasn't been seen in the village in decades after heading off on a cruise ship Credit: Getty - Contributor James Redmond, Natalie Casey and John Pickard – who played Rory 'Finn' Finnigan, Carol Groves and Dominic Reilly on the soap – have all been tapped to return to their old haunt. And all three have connections to long-standing resident, Tony Hutchinson (Nick Pickard). A source told The Sun Online: 'They were all hugely popular characters in the 90s and had to be a part of the anniversary. 'Hollyoaks might have a lot of younger viewers now but bosses really wanted to remember the 90s roots, so there's set to be some real nostalgia coming up.' The stars have already begun filming their scenes. Hollyoaks declined to comment when approached by The Sun Online. During their time on Hollyoaks, all three became central to major storylines that defined the show as a soap for younger audiences – especially when it came to Tony. It's been years since any of the characters have appeared in the Hollyoaks world, although Redmond has repeatedly reprised his role of Finn for guest stints to mark special occasions. Arriving on the show as a free-spirited heartthrob in 1998, Finn became close friends with Tony Hutchinson, even going into business together. While he left in 2002, he later returned for a stint in after-watershed spin-off Hollyoaks Later, the 20th anniversary in 2015, and again for Christmas in 2017. His last appearance was in 2018, when Finn left for Margate after taking the fall for Cindy Cunningham (Steph Waring) stealing £10,000 for the purchase of a restaurant. Natalie Casey's Carol arrived on the soap in 1996, but hasn't been seen since 2000. She also had close ties to both Finn and particularly Tony, with whom she had a will they/won't they relationship. Eventually, she left to perform on cruise ships, confessing her feelings to Tony before she did so in special Hollyoaks: Boys Do Barca. Finally, Dominic (played by Nick Pickard's real-life brother, John) is Tony's half-brother, and appeared on screen from 2005 to 2010. 7 Tony is a long-standing favourite on the soap Credit: Lime Pictures 7 Finn is Tony's best friend and business partner Credit: Lime Pictures 7 Carol went abroad to live her dreams of being a singer Credit: Mersey Television During that time, the character was seen trying to build a relationship with his estranged sibling. However, their relationship collapsed when he believed he burned down Tony's restaurant, Il Gnosh, at the request of gangster Warren Fox. While it was later revealed it was not him, he had already confessed and not believed, so was left to serve out his sentence. After prison, Dom appeared in a series of Hollyoaks Later alongside Tony and Finn, and was living in Spain – sending the trio on a wild adventure as they ran into a mobster The White Man, played by Danny Dyer.
