Katy Perry could be forgiven by veteran's family in $15M mansion war
As the second phase of Katy Perry's legal battle with Carl Westcott kicks off in court, the 85-year-old veteran's family tells The Post they are willing to forgive the pop star for subjecting them to the burdens of the trial — but they want one thing. Perry, 40, and Westcott's trial over damages she claims she's owed after purchasing the $15 million mansion from him, via her business manager Bernie Gudvi, begins on Thursday, August 21. 15 Katy Perry performs onstage during The Lifetimes Tour in New York at Madison Square Garden on August 11, KP 15 Carl Westcott with his daughter-in-law, 'Real Housewives of Dallas' star Kameron Westcott, and grandkids. Kameron Wescott/Instagram The Post spoke to Westcott's son, Chart, who revealed he can show Perry grace if she sincerely apologizes for dragging out the legal process, although he doubts that will happen. While a judge already ruled that Perry was the rightful owner of the Santa Barbara, Calif., mansion, the 'Dark Horse' singer countersued Westcott, claiming he is on the hook for $3.25 million in damages because she couldn't rent the home during their legal battle from September 2020 to March 2024. Perry's legal team later insisted she was owed an additional $2.2 million for alleged repairs that were needed to restore the home to its purchased condition, citing structural defects and deferred maintenance. 15 The Santa Barbara, California, mansion that Katy Perry and Carl Westcott fought over. BACKGRID 15 Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour at Madison Square Garden on August 11, 2025 in New York KP The mansion war began five years ago, when the entrepreneur — who suffers from the neurological disorder Huntington's disease — tried to back out of the sale just days after Perry bought the property, citing his mental incapacity. He claimed he was not in his right mind and under the influence of pain meds due to a recent surgery when he signed the contract. However, after years of litigation, the judge stated that 'Westcott presented no persuasive evidence that he lacked capacity to enter into a real estate contract between June 10, 2020, and June 18, 2020, the days during which he negotiated and signed the contract,' and awarded Perry the mansion in December 2023. He also ruled that there was significant evidence to demonstrate Westcott knowingly signed the contract, noting he seemed to be 'coherent, engaged, lucid, and rational.' 15 Katy Perry was ruled rightful owner of the property in December 2024. Village Properties 15 Carl Westcott is 85 years old and bedridden. Courtesty of Carl Westcott 15 Katy Perry in New York City on August 12, 2025. Santi Ramales / BACKGRID In May 2024, the deed of the property was transferred to Perry's LLC, DDoveB (named after the daughter she shares with her ex, Orlando Bloom, Daisy Dove, 4). Regarding the alleged damages (phase two of the proceedings), the singer's attorneys claimed experts examined the estate last year and determined 'that significant portions needed to be repaired, including nearly a million dollars in pervasive flood damage that occurred in early 2024 and substantial repairs that are needed due to a large tree falling on and cracking the foundation of one of the buildings on the Property, among many other defects throughout the Property.' 'Gudvi bargained for the condition of the Property in July 2020, and the $15 million purchase price was based on the Property as it existed at that time. Westcott should not be able to profit from his own deficient construction and lack of maintenance while this litigation was pending,' her lawyers argued. 15 Carl Westcott giving his grandkid a hug from his bed. Kameron Wescott/Instagram While Chart previously told The Post that Perry 'could've walked away at any time with grace and humanity' instead of fighting 'a dying man in court, all for money,' Wescott's son said there's still room for forgiveness. 'An apology would be nice. That would tie a ribbon around the whole thing,' he shared in an exclusive interview before the trial. '[I'm] not expecting it. I don't think it's in her nature to take responsibility for anything, really at all, but certainly not for her bad acts. She doesn't take responsibility, so that's not going to happen. But that would be nice.' When asked whether it would be water under the bridge if Perry said she was sorry, Chart responded, 'Absolutely. I think you have to forgive people if they're sincere in their apologies. You have to give them that grace.' 15 Getty Images 15 Carl Westcott with two of his grandchildren, Kameron and Court Westcott's kids. Kameron Wescott/Instagram He, however, noted, 'There has to be room for grace and how we conduct our affairs, which is not what she showed my father, right? Not one ounce of grace or dignity did she allow him. So it is absolutely a necessity that we would do that and show her that grace. So it would be completely forgiven.' While stating he couldn't speak for everyone in his family, Chart shared it'd be nice for the singer to 'let me know that there's an actual human being in there' with 'empathy and compassion left.' Chart also shared that there will be family members present during the entire trial, which is estimated to last at least 5 days. This includes Chart's sister-in-law, 'Real Housewives of Dallas' alum Kameron Westcott, who is married to his brother, Court. 15 Katy Perry at the 'Oh, Mary!' Broadway play in New York City in August 2025. Santi Ramales / BACKGRID While Chart revealed that he and his brother will be testifying during the trial, Perry will too. The pop star's legal team filed a request on Wednesday, August 20, for her to testify on the first day of trial, according to court documents obtained by The Post, claiming it's her only availability. Perry is performing in Tampa, Florida, on Friday, and Miami on Saturday, before heading overseas for her concerts beginning on September 6. Chart said this trial is a pain for everyone involved. 15 Katy Perry's team requested that she be allowed to testify on the first day of the trial. 'We're having to spend money on obviously plane flights, hotel rooms and all this sort of thing. It's a big inconvenience for everybody. It doesn't seem to be an inconvenience for her. Which, you know, is very telling,' he said in the interview. 'So, unfortunately, for us, the legal fees will be high. And it's a huge inconvenience in terms of time [and] money for the giant waste that she's put us all through.' Chart also told The Post that he's shielding his ailing father from the trial. 15 Carl Westcott and his grandson. Courtesty of Carl Westcott 'We try not to talk to him about it for obvious reasons of stress and anger,' he revealed. 'We're trying to make him as peaceful as possible so we don't bring it up to him.' 'I would honestly spare him from that,' he continued. 'I don't want to cause any sort of agitation with him,' Chart explained, noting Westcott is 'tired, dying and old.' While the veteran's family isn't holding their breath for an apology, Chart said he's 'excited to unmask' Perry and 'the spurious nature of these damages claims, which are just utterly ridiculous and a complete insult to both my father, my brother and I, and our family.' Chart hopes the singer's mother and father are aware of the situation. 15 Carl Westcott and his family celebrating Easter years ago. Kameron Wescott/Instagram 'Her parents were very devout Christians. I wonder what they think about what she's done now and kind of how she has conducted her public affairs,' he stated. Perry's parents, Keith Hudson and Mary Perry, have both worked as Pentecostal pastors and evangelical ministers for over forty years. She's often spoken about her ultra-conservative childhood. 'I come from a very non-accepting family, but I'm very accepting,' she told Vanity Fair in 2011. 'We coexist. I don't try to change them anymore, and I don't think they try to change me. We agree to disagree.' 15 Katy Perry and her ex-fiancé, Orlando Bloom. orlandobloom/Instagram For Chart, he is ready to watch Perry — whose real name is Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson — 'talk about this [the legal battle] and see how she wears this mask that she must maintain. How does it fit on her skin?' 'That will be, for me, very satisfying,' he said. The Post reached out to Perry's rep for comment.

Matthew Stafford's wife, Kelly, responds to wild conspiracy theories after QB's health issues
Matthew Stafford's back issue has sparked some bizarre theories. The Rams' veteran quarterback missed preseason action and most of training camp due to lingering back soreness — for which he's received epidurals to manage pain — and his wife, Kelly Stafford, is taking speculation over his health in stride. Taking to her Instagram Story on Thursday, Kelly reposted a Barstool Sports headline that read, 'The Best NFL conspiracy theory on the internet – Matthew Stafford died a couple weeks ago, got cloned, new one is now QB1 for the Rams.' Advertisement 3 Kelly Stafford and Matthew Stafford. Instagram/Kelly Stafford She added, 'I knew there was something different about him….that @ammortal_official is wild.' The most bizarre corners of social media have concocted the idea that Stafford has passed away — despite zero evidence to support the fact. Advertisement Kelly tagged Ammortal Inc, a company that her husband uses for their Ammortal Chamber, which is 'the fastest way to reset, recharge and rejuvenate the body, mind and spirit,' according to its website. Earlier this month, Stafford used a mobile Ammortal Chamber that was inside of a trailer at a Rams practice, as seen in photos posted by reporters. Stafford returned to the field Monday for the first time this summer for practice in full pads. 3 The Ammortal Chamber Advertisement Rams head coach Sean McVay told reporters after practice that Stafford participated in 26 plays of team drills, per the team's official website. 'It was good to be able to have Matthew out there. He did a good job today. I thought he looked good. I don't really have any updates,' McVay said. 'We're going to keep it a day and really a week at a time, but it was great to be able to see him out there today. We'll see how this afternoon goes and tomorrow.'
