‘Blake Lively Khaleesi Text' Trending Amid Justin Baldoni Lawsuit
Here are more details on the trend.
The phrase 'Blake Lively Khaleesi text' has been making waves online, as her ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni grows increasingly tense. The message, sent during a behind-the-scenes dispute over the film adaptation of It Ends With Us, has yet again resurfaced. This follows a major update in their court case.
On June 2, a federal judge ruled that Lively's emotional distress claims would not proceed after her legal team opted to drop them. The court also denied Baldoni's request to obtain her private medical and therapy records, since those claims were no longer part of the case.
Meanwhile, on June 5, Lively publicly criticized Baldoni for distancing himself from the feminist ideals he once promoted. Lively's spokesperson told Us Weekly, '19 leading survivors and organizations devoted to women's rights, children's rights and domestic violence have now signed onto four separate amicus briefs. All are united in opposing Justin Baldoni's attempt to dismantle a law designed to protect women who speak up — simply to protect himself.'
The tension first started during production on It Ends With Us, where Lively was cast as the lead. Later, she reportedly became heavily involved in shaping the script. According to Baldoni's legal complaint, she pushed for significant rewrites and tried to take creative control. While Baldoni acknowledged her enthusiasm, he chose to incorporate only parts of her suggestions. That decision reportedly upset Lively. She later brought up her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and friend Taylor Swift in a conversation.
The situation took a dramatic turn with a final message, now known as the 'Khaleesi text.' Drawing a parallel to Game of Thrones, Lively wrote, 'If you ever get around to watching Game of Thrones, you'll appreciate that I'm Khaleesi, and like her, I happen to have a few dragons.' 'For better or worse, but usually for better. Because my dragons also protect those I fight for. So really, we all benefit from those gorgeous monsters of mine. You will too, I can promise you,' she added. (via Hola!)
The trial of this legal battle is set to begin in March 2026.

Are Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly Back Together?
Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly may not be together right now, but you know what they say: Twin flames always find their way back to each other. Ever since the former couple welcomed their daughter, Saga Blade, earlier this year, they've reportedly been focused on keeping things 'amicable' for the sake of their child. Per pics published by TMZ, the on-again, off-again couple took a family vacation with Saga to Costa Rica on July 22, eight months after their last breakup. As far as their relationship goes, sources for Us Weekly weighed in on where Megan and MGK currently stand, with one insider calling the trip as a 'big stepping stone' toward trying to 'reconcile' their relationship. According to a second source, 'Things feel back to 'normal' between them, but they are not putting a label on their relationship.' They went on to add, 'Seeing him be with their baby girl has brought them closer together. They are spending a lot of time under one roof, and Megan does let him stay at her house to help her with the baby. It has been a team effort, and he has stepped up.' During an August 4 interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, MGK opened up about his journey with fatherhood and if play dates with Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt's baby are on the line. 'I feel like me and him always talk about, like, 'Won't it be great to just be walking our babies down in strollers?' And I'm like, 'You know, I don't think Megan and Elsie are ever gonna let us,'' the musician, who also has a 16-year-old daughter, Casie, from a past relationship, said. He jokingly continued, 'I think that they would be in their heads thinking that we would be looking at the baby and go, 'Okay. What do we do?' and the diapers end up on our heads or something.' Us Weekly's second source also revealed that while Saga's arrival 'changed everything' for Megan and MGK, the Jennifer's Body actor is still standing on business when it comes to getting back together with the 'Bloody Valentine' musician. 'Megan is very strong-willed and doesn't want to give in to MGK and allow him fully back in. She's standing her ground but, of course, still loves him,' they explained. The insider continued, 'There has been a lot of damage done. Things change daily, and if he does one thing wrong, he knows she will write him off immediately.'

Denise Richards Accuses Estranged Husband Of Leaking Her Explicit Photos, Violating Restraining Order
Denise Richards has filed a court motion requesting that her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, be compelled to return her personal belongings. The two are currently embroiled in a contentious divorce, during which Phypers allegedly stole Richards' laptop, cellphones, and other personal items and leaked nude photos of her to media outlets. Denise Richards claims that Aaron Phypers' actions have left her in "extreme distress" and "greatly disturbed." Denise Richards Accuses Her Estranged Husband Of Leaking Her Nudes Denise Richards and Aaron Phypers' divorce continues to escalate with the reality star's latest court move. According to Us Weekly, Richards filed a motion on Monday asking the court to compel her estranged husband to return personal belongings he allegedly took from her. This includes her cellphones, laptops, and other recordings currently in his possession. More importantly, Richards is also asking the court to prohibit Phypers from distributing any material from those devices. In her filing, Richards accused her estranged husband of already "disseminating to numerous news organizations on multiple occasions" some of the private information from her devices in his possession. She claimed that one such leak included a photo of her with her "breast completely exposed" and another showing her "buttocks," both of which were used in a story by one of the outlets. The former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star also noted that another leaked item was an image of her phone being held by Phyper's hand and displaying her private text messages. Denise Richards Claims She Is In 'Extreme Distress' And 'Greatly Disturbed' Further arguing her case, Richards claimed that her estranged husband's actions have taken a serious emotional toll on her. "I am in extreme distress and greatly disturbed since Aaron has been repeatedly disseminating private text messages stolen from my laptop after the TRO has been issued and I have warned him numerous times not to disseminate any information from my cell phone or laptop," she said. Richards also reminded the court that she had previously obtained a restraining order against Phypers earlier this month and that his alleged actions should be seen as a violation of the order and a "criminal act." She added, "Aaron accessing my private information on my laptop and disseminating the information is not only abuse and a violation of the TRO, but the disseminating of nude photographs is a criminal act." The filing also included an ultimatum to Phypers to return the items to her by the end of July 29. Aaron Phypers Has Denied The Accusations Responding to the allegations, Phypers told US Weekly that Richards' claims were "untrue" and aimed at smearing his reputation. "I absolutely deny the false allegations that I violated the restraining order or stole Denise's laptop or cell phones," he said. Phypers continued, "These claims are not only untrue — they are being weaponized to damage my reputation and distract from the truth." Aaron Phypers Claims Denise Richards 'Conjured Up' False And 'Hurtful' Claims Against Him He had also previously denied the claims from Richards about him physically abusing her during their marriage, which she mentioned in her plea for a restraining order. At the time, he claimed that it was all "conjured up" and that he had the "real evidence." "Let me be unequivocally clear: I have never physically or emotionally abused Denise — or anyone," he shared. Phypers added, "These accusations are completely false and deeply hurtful. Denise and I, like many couples, have faced our share of challenges, but any suggestion of abuse is categorically untrue." Aaron Phypers Accused His Estranged Wife Of Cheating Earlier this month, Phypers filed for divorce from Denise Richards, citing "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split and also requesting spousal support. Weeks later, he hinted at the reasons behind his decision in a candid interview with them Daily Mail, where he accused Richards of having an affair with a former Special Forces soldier, Rudy Reyes. He claimed the months-long affair took place during Richards' time on the reality competition show, "Wild Thing," and that he discovered "107 raunchy texts" between her and the individual. Phypers also opened up about how the discovery affected him, saying he was left "broken-hearted" by the alleged betrayal by Richards, whom he married in 2018. "Really, she's f-cked me up," he shared. "We've been together nine years, and for her to do that and to lie to me consistently -- I'm totally tired and drained." Solve the daily Crossword

The exact emotional moment Prince George realised he would become King one day
Wondering if Prince George has any clue that he's destined to be king one day? Apparently very much yes—despite the fact that he's just 12-years-old and his parents have tried their best to give him a "normal life." You know, one full of public appearances to the likes of Wimbledon and the Euros. Royal expert and historian Marlene Koenig tells Us Weekly that George is "undoubtedly aware of his future role" as the country's monarch, saying, "Barring any accidents or health issues, George will not be king for some years. He is second in line — as his father is the heir apparent — and his grandfather is the king." As for when George was formally "told" about being King, Koenig says "proper awareness" came after Queen Elizabeth II's passing in September 2022. Since then, George has "taken part in numerous public events" and Prince William and Kate Middleton likely spoke about "these changes" with him. As she put it, "The Coronation provided the young prince with the knowledge that he, too, would one day be crowned in a Coronation ceremony. George may be a 12-year-old schoolboy who loves sports, but he is most certainly aware of his future." Meanwhile, royal expert Robert Jobson says Prince William's been teaching George about "responsibilities as heir to the throne" which has been a gradual processes so it doesn't "freak him out." As for his grandfather's coronation, where Prince George was a page, Jobson says "It gave him a real sense of the grandeur and all the expectation. I thought that was quite important actually for George."
