Post Malone SPLITS from girlfriend Christy Lee... amid custody battle with his ex-fiancee

Post Malone and Christy Lee have ended their whirlwind romance. The 29-year-old music artist began dating the younger stylist shortly after he split from ex-fiancée Hee Sung 'Jamie' Park last November. Sources told TMZ that Malone — real name Austin Post — and the aspiring influencer split up a little less than one month ago. The outlet noted that it's unknown whether the breakup was amicable. In January they were spotted together for the first time during a dinner date in Rome. In March they appeared in a TikTok video shared by a fan who spotted them at a bar. The pair put on a loved-up display, with Christy's hand wrapped around the singer's arm as they sat at the upper level of the venue. The White Iverson hitmaker is in a custody battle with his ex Jamie over their three-year-old daughter, who is referred to in legal documents as 'DDP.' In May he petitioned a court to hold the proceedings in Utah, with legal documents submitted by his attorney Laura Wasser stating that he is raising the child there. Park filed a similar request in Los Angeles County court, petitioning the court for primary custody, with the pop star getting nominal time. However, Post told the court that she strategically filed in Los Angeles for perceived advantages in the court battle. Wasser pointed out to the court that the exes' daughter has a number of essential ties to Utah. Listed among them was her nanny, pediatrician, music classes, physical education, and swimming. The Texas-bred musician announced the birth of his child in June 2022 without disclosing her name. At the same time, he revealed he was engaged to the baby's mother but kept his fiancée's identity private, with fans taking to calling her 'Jamie.' Throughout his short-lived romance with Christy, the performer and his then-girlfriend were spotted on multiple lavish outings in Europe and the states. In Park's court filing, she asked that her ex cover her legal costs, and also revealed that their daughter was born in May 2022. Sources previously told TMZ that Post filed for custody in Utah because he and Park had previously been splitting custody down the middle in the state, but that it's also to his financial benefit, as Utah is less generous with child-support payments than California.

Paramount agrees to pay $16m to settle Trump's 60 Minutes lawsuit

Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS, has settled a lawsuit filed by Donald Trump which alleged election interference over an edited 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris. Paramount said it would pay $16 million to settle the suit with the money allocated to Mr Trump's future presidential library, and not paid to the US president 'directly or indirectly'. 'The settlement does not include a statement of apology or regret,' the company statement added. Mr Trump filed a $10-billion lawsuit against CBS in October, alleging the network deceptively edited an interview that aired on its 60 Minutes news program with then-vice president and presidential candidate Kamala Harris to 'tip the scales in favour of the Democratic Party' in the election. In an amended complaint filed in February, Mr Trump bumped his claim for damages to $20 billion. CBS aired two versions of the Harris interview in which she appeared to give different answers to the same question about the Israel-Hamas war, according to the lawsuit filed in federal court in Texas. CBS previously said the lawsuit was 'completely without merit' and had asked a judge to dismiss the case. Edward A Paltzik, a lawyer representing Mr Trump in the civil suit, could not be immediately reached for comment. A spokesperson for Paramount Chair Shari Redstone was similarly unavailable for comment. The case entered mediation in April. Mr Trump alleged CBS's editing of the interview violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act, which makes it illegal to use false, misleading or deceptive acts in commerce. The settlement comes as Paramount prepares for an $8.4-billion merger with Skydance Media, which will require approval from the US Federal Communications Commission. On the campaign trail last year, Mr Trump threatened to revoke CBS' broadcasting licence if elected. He has repeatedly lashed out against news publications, often casting unfavourable coverage as 'fake news', and has vowed to pursue more claims against media organisations. The Paramount settlement follows a decision by Walt Disney-owned ABC News to settle a defamation case brought by Mr Trump. As part of that settlement, which was made public on December 14, the network donated $15 million to Mr Trump's presidential library and publicly apologised for comments by anchor George Stephanopoulos, who inaccurately said Mr Trump had been found liable for rape. It also follows a second settlement, by Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta Platforms, which on January 29 said it had agreed to pay about $25 million to settle a lawsuit by Mr Trump over the company's suspension of his accounts after the January 6, 2021, attack at the US Capitol.

Trump says Israel agrees to 60-day ceasefire in Gaza and urges Hamas to accept

US President Donald Trump has said that Israel has agreed to terms for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza, during which the US and other parties would work towards an end to the war. Trump pushed Hamas to accept the deal in a social media post. 'I hope, for the good of the Middle East, that Hamas takes this Deal, because it will not get better — IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE,' Trump said. The news comes as Trump prepares to host Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for talks at the White House on Monday. The US president has shown increased interest in a ceasefire and hostage agreement in the region after the US brokered a peace agreement between Israel and Iran. Asked earlier if it's time to put pressure on Netanyahu to get a ceasefire deal done, Trump said the Israeli prime minister was ready to come to an agreement. 'He wants to,' Trump said, adding: 'I think we'll have a deal next week.' Talks between Israel and Hamas have repeatedly faltered over whether the war should end as part of any ceasefire agreement. About 50 hostages remain captive in Gaza, with less than half believed to be alive. Hamas says it is willing to free all the hostages in exchange for a full withdrawal of Israeli troops and an end to the war in Gaza. Israel rejects that offer, saying it will agree to end the war if Hamas surrenders, disarms and goes into exile, something that the group refuses. The announcement by Trump came as over 150 international charities and humanitarian groups called Tuesday for disbanding a controversial Israeli- and US-backed system to distribute aid in Gaza because of chaos and deadly violence against Palestinians seeking food at its sites. The joint statement by groups including Oxfam, Save the Children and Amnesty International followed the killings of at least 10 Palestinians who were seeking desperately needed food, witnesses and health officials said. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes killed at least 37 in southern Gaza's Khan Younis, according to Nasser Hospital. 'Tents, tents they are hitting with two missiles?' asked Um Seif Abu Leda, whose son was killed in the strikes. Mourners threw flowers on the body bags. Before Trump's announcement, Israel's defense minister, Israel Katz, had warned that his country would respond forcefully to the firing of a missile the military said originated from Yemen. Sirens sounded across parts of Israel, alerting residents to the attack and the launch of two projectiles from Gaza. All were intercepted by Israeli defense systems. The missile launch marked the first attack by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels since the end of the 12-day war initiated by Israel with Iran. Katz said Yemen could face the same fate as Tehran.
