DDG appeals to Halle Bailey to reach custody agreement
DDG has urged Halle Bailey to reach a "clear understanding" over custody of their son. The former couple split in October and the rapper - whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr. - wants to spend more time with 15-month-old Halo, but would rather not take the matter to court. In a livestream shared to YouTube over the weekend, he said: 'I don't want to go to court. It's going to get extremely messy and it don't have to happen. I think it's in her best interest to not want to go to court either, where we can just have a clear understanding. 'We go to court, the judge is going to give me some time. And when I got the time, I'm gonna do whatever I want with my son. "I don't want to go to court because it's going to make her unhappy.' The 27-year-old rapper has shared a song called 'Don't Take My Son' and explained he was moved to pen the track out of frustration and annoyance over his desire to see Halo. The lyrics of the song include: 'Don't take my son / 'Cause he all I got / Trying to make me pay to see my son / That going to make me hot.' He explained in the livestream: 'I just don't want it to come to the point where he's like, 'Alright, my pops not around'. That's my main thing. I was more frustrated and annoyed than anything. 'I've been dealing with this s*** for a long time. I never spoke on it for the simple fact that I don't like putting y'all in my real life business but I'm like, 'Okay, I don't know what else to do.'' In November, Halle, 25, slammed her former partner for broadcasting their baby on his livestream shortly after they had separated. She posted on X : 'I don't approve of my baby being on a stream tonight. I wasn't told or notified and i am extremely upset to have my baby in front of millions of people. 'I am his mother and protector and saddened that I wasn't notified.' The 'Little Mermaid' actress then deleted her account on the social media platform.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle take kids to Disneyland for Lilibet's birthday
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle brought a little royal sparkle to the Happiest Place on Earth this week, treating their children Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, to a magical Disneyland getaway in celebration of Lilibet's birthday. "Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!" Meghan, 43, captioned an Instagram Reel on Friday, sharing glimpses of the family's park adventures. Set to Peggy Lee's "It's a Good Day," the montage opened with a sweet moment of Lilibet holding her mom's hand as they walked into the park. Highlights included classic rides like Dumbo the Flying Elephant, King Arthur Carrousel, Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blasters, among others. The birthday girl also got a Little Mermaid-themed cake that read "Happy Birthday Lili." The Sussexes made time for galactic thrills, too, visiting Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and riding Rise of the Resistance. Meghan, who recently returned to Instagram after a years-long hiatus, has been sharing more personal glimpses into her family life. On June 4, she posted a throwback clip of herself and Harry dancing during her pregnancy with Lilibet, writing: "Four years ago today, this also happened." She added, "When spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work -- there was only one thing left to do!"

Meghan Markle Shares Pics of Archie and Lilibet Experiencing 'Pure Joy' at Disneyland
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle appeared to enjoy Disneyland almost as much as their kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, in a Reel posted to Instagram by the Duchess of Sussex on Friday. 'Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!' Meghan wrote in the caption of the adorable montage of the family's adventures. The whole group was at the amusement park for Lilibet's fourth birthday. Playing to Peggy Lee's song 'It's A Good Day,' the first clip showed a nervous Lilibet holding her mom's hand as she approached her hero, Elsa from Frozen. Lili was also gifted a Little Mermaid-themed birthday cake reading 'Happy Birthday Lili,' making it a day of Disney princesses for the royal one. The group could then be seen on various rides, including Tiana's Bayou Adventure, Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blasters, Space Mountain, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, and the King Arthur Carousel. Meghan shared a clip of just herself and Harry on the more demanding Rise of the Resistance, laughing and screaming together as they came down on the roller coaster. In a group shot, Meghan covered her kids' faces, but showed off her Minnie Mouse ears. Harry was kneeling by the two children and has his arm around Archie. Lili is barefoot and wearing a white dress covered in a colorful graphic bow pattern. Before the Disney party, Meghan celebrated Lili's fourth birthday with never-before-seen footage from the delivery room taken just ahead of her daughter's birth. In the clips, she and Harry are dancing together to help induce labor, because both Lili and Archie arrived past their due dates. 'Four years ago today, this also happened,' she wrote in the caption. 'Both of our children were a week past their due dates. So when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work—there was only one thing left to do! 😂.'

US Open '25: DeChambeau's sand save an all-time memory at golf's most punishing major
It only feels right that the reigning titleholder at the golf championship that, at least in theory, anyone can win is the player who leans into the role of the sport's most relatable everyman, Bryson DeChambeau. And it only feels right that at the U.S. Open — a tournament built to humble and punish the best in the game as much as celebrate them — DeChambeau earned his title by hitting a shot that virtually no man can hit. A plaque now sits outside the bunker on the 18th hole at Pinehurst No. 2, enshrining the spot where DeChambeau placed his name in the history books with what he called 'the shot of my life' — a 55-yard blast from the sand to 4 feet with the trophy hanging in the balance on Sunday at last year's Open. Defense of the title begins Thursday at Oakmont, getting ready to host its record 10th U.S. Open and a course with a longtime reputation for being as difficult as they come. All of which seems to suit the 31-year-old pro golfer/social media star just fine. His first U.S. Open title came in 2020 at Winged Foot, the course best known for producing the 1974 'Massacre at Winged Foot' along with Phil Mickelson's meltdown in the trees and trash cans more than 30 years later. Then, last year, that bunker at Pinehurst. What would golf's everyman say to his millions of YouTube followers who someday might encounter their own version of the 50-yard bunker shot, widely recognized as one of the most difficult in the game, even under normal circumstances? 'The best piece of advice I give them is, just practice in weird, unique situations for maybe an hour a week, 20 minutes, whatever,' DeChambeau said. 'But try to be different and don't just hit the same stock shot every time.' A history-making shot in a tournament that does not produce them All the major championships have their own personalities. The Masters produces roars through the pines during back-nine charges on Sunday. The British Open is a brittle links-style test where players have to think differently about getting from Point A to Point B. America's golf championship has a reputation for forcing the best players to suffer like the rest of us. As a result, the list of 'greatest shots of all time' at the U.S. Open is a short one: — Ben Hogan's 1-iron on the 72nd hole that helped force a playoff at Merion in 1950. — Arnold Palmer's lash with driver to the first green at Cherry Hills in 1960. — Jack Nicklaus' 1-iron that hit the flagstick on No. 17 at Pebble Beach in 1972. — Tom Watson's chip from the rough on the same hole 10 years later to beat Nicklaus. — Tiger Woods' 12-foot putt at Torrey Pines in 2008 to force a playoff he eventually won over Rocco Mediate. And now, there is DeChambeau's bunker shot. 'When he took this big swing, the amount of confidence that you have to have to hit it that close to the golf ball and not accidentally catch too much ball and send it on top of the clubhouse, it's a very fine line," said NBC golf analyst Smylie Kaufman, whose biggest brush with pressure came when he played in the final group Sunday at the 2016 Masters. 'They work every single day, every week at these facets of the game in hopes they will have an opportunity to try it,' said Notah Begay, also of NBC. 'I think one of the most overlooked things about professional golf is all the calculation that happens on the fly in evaluating certain shots, which way the grass is lying, where the ball's going to land, and on top of all the normal things.' A tournament for everyone could come down to Bryson, Rory, Scottie Maybe the biggest irony is what the U.S. Open officially sells itself as, versus what always ends up happening. More than 10,000 players signed up to qualify for the U.S. Open which is, officially, open to any professional, or amateur with a handicap of 0.4 or lower. There will be good stories to tell among those who went through qualifying to make the 156-man field: a 17-year-old high schooler from Georgia, a dentist in Indiana who used to caddie at Oakmont. The cold facts: The last man to run the gauntlet of local and sectional qualifying to win the title was Orville Moody in 1969. (Lucas Glover went through sectional qualifying only when he won in 2009.) By the time the sun starts going down on Sunday, the tournament almost certainly will come down to a handful of players who virtually all golf fans have heard of. Though Scottie Scheffler is playing the best right now and Rory McIlroy recently won the Masters to complete the career Grand Slam, it's plausible to think that DeChambeau captures the attention of more of those fans than anyone. He recently surpassed 2 million subscribers on his YouTube channel. He is making golf feel like everyman's sport, posting videos in which he makes a hole-in-one with a wedge shot over his house, plays with off-the-rack clubs to see how they stack up and tries to beat a scratch golfer while playing left-handed. All of it sounds nutty, but it all goes back to that piece of advice he offered when asked how to replicate the improbable under impossible circumstances — i.e., a 50-yard bunker shot with the U.S. Open on the line. 'Once you get a stock shot down and you're comfortable with it, go have some fun,' DeChambeau said. 'Do a chipping contest with your amateur friends and throw it in the bunker from 50 yards, or throw it in a bush and see if you can get out. Stuff to that extent has suited my game very well.'
