Jaime King's ex Kyle Newman awarded sole physical custody of their children
Jaime King and Kyle Newman's custody battle has come to an end.
The "Fanboys" director has been awarded sole physical custody of the couple's two children, according to a March 11 custody order filed in Los Angeles and obtained Tuesday by USA TODAY.
The "Pearl Harbor" actress may only have supervised visitation with the children due to not completing a six-month drug and alcohol program, with weekly testing, aftercare and a 12-step program. She still retains legal custody of the children – James, 11, and Leo, 9 – with Newman.
USA TODAY has reached out to King and Newman's lawyers for comment.
King filed for divorce from the producer in May 2020, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple married in 2007. At the time, the "White Chicks" actress requested joint physical and legal custody as well as spousal support. The divorce was finalized in 2024.
The children will live with Newman, and King is allowed supervised visitation two to three times a week in specific blocks, until the court orders otherwise, according to the March 11 filing.

The couple listed a host of family members and family friends as approved supervisors, including King's mother, sister and brother-in-law. Newman will "revisit consideration" of King's partner as a supervisor a month into the agreement, according to the filing.
The couple will also communicate through a co-parenting app, outside of emergencies, and the "My Bloody Valentine" star is allowed to FaceTime the children within an hour and a half block for 20 minutes daily outside of Mondays and Saturdays.

Of Notoriety: Newspapers are an ageless gift with ‘superpowers' to educate, entertain and inform
As I write this column on Aug. 13, on the occasion of my 55th birthday, there is one standout gift I received that represents so much more than just a gift of sentiment. My intern-turned-work associate (and right-hand man) Luke Miiller purchased a $35 small metal replica of a newspaper sales box, a rare landscape sight these days. This particular miniature newspaper box is for the famed but fictitious The Daily Planet newspaper, the beloved print publication that dual identity reporter Clark Kent and alter-ego Superman worked for, side-by-side with photographer Jimmy Olsen, rival scoop reporter Lois Lane and angry publisher Perry White. Luke purchased the keepsake last month when I joined him and others at AMC 16 in Schererville to see the new Warner Bros. 'Superman' film starring David Corenswet in the title role. The tin box includes a hinged plastic clear window where a small paper copy of an issue of The Daily Planet, featuring a large photo of Superboy's canine pal Krypto on the front page with a mock story. This memento box is really intended to hold enough popcorn to fill a large bucket, but the concession stand conveniently serves the popcorn in a separate bucket. I liked the new film version of 'Superman.' However, given I was born in 1970, the original 'Superman: The Movie' released in 1978 and starring the late greats Christopher Reeve as the man in the cape opposite Gene Hackman as scheming Lex Luthor will still always rank tops in my heart and mind. Most of all, I'm proud of both films' treatment of newspapers and reporters chasing after their stories as a narrative of the excitement and adventure represented by the journalism field. From coverage of county fairs to city council meetings, school boards, politics, crime, business and corruption to the contrasting content of enlightenment from feature stories, columnists, entertainment, sports and arts and culture, newspapers have had it all covered for centuries, and delivered to doorsteps (or the digital equivalent in recent decades). If you open the inside well of my newspaper box proudly displayed at work on my desk, carefully folded to fit the interior is a full-size copy of The Daily Planet, published by Gannett Media on July 7 as a 'wrap-around' souvenir covering USA Today, released as a special promotional bonus to push movie ticket sales. The front page includes stories with bylines by both Lois Lane and Clark Kent as well as photos with a Jimmy Olsen credit. This isn't the first time USA Today and parent company Gannett have surprised readers with a clever keepsake souvenir edition. Reader and friend Tammie Miller, spotting my newspaper box on my desk last week, reminded me that a decade ago, the Oct. 15, 2015, issue of USA Today was also a special milestone edition. That magical date is the date that appeared on the prop newspaper held by actor Michel J. Fox as Marty McFly in the hit film sequel 'Back to the Future Part II' released in 1989 by Universal Pictures. As spotted in the quick glimpse scene in the film, the prop newspaper shows it is sold for $3 in the predicted year 2015. In truth, USA Today sold for $2 in 2015 and today sells for $3. When Gannett printed up the commemorative prop replica newspapers on Oct. 15, 2015, they were sold for $6. (Tammie Miller happened to snag one!) Among the headlines and predictions on the prop newspaper attempting to predict the future for the year 2015? There are story teases and references to the Chicago Cubs winning the World Series, royal coverage of 'Queen Diana,' the popularity of rehydrated pizza, hoverboards and a female U.S. president. There is also a large banner headline that reads: 'Cholesterol may be cancer cure' Newspapers are a reason to keep smiling: past, present and future.

Taylor Swift live updates: The showgirl era begins with 'New Heights' appearance
NASHVILLE — Swifties are counting down the seconds along with Taylor Swift's website in anticipation of getting to spend some quality time with their girl, her boyfriend and his brother. Swift is set to appear on the Kelce brothers' "New Heights" podcast at 7 p.m. ET on Aug. 13. She's already announced the title of her next album, "The Life of a Showgirl." What else will fans learn? Will we get cover art? A release date? A track list? It's not often fans hear from Swift at length, so a full podcast seated next to partner Travis Kelce is quite the treat. No matter what news she breaks, it seems likely that at least a good time will be had judging by the teaser video of Jason Kelce introducing Swift to listeners so passionately he was out of breath by the end. Bryan West, Taylor Swift reporter for the USA TODAY Network, will be watching along with everyone else and posting updates here. Get your feathers and rhinestones ready, and follow along! If you're a more typical "New Heights" listener — aka a sports fan — check in with USA TODAY sports writers here. How to watch 'New Heights' podcast with Taylor Swift Those hoping to watch the Kelces and Swift on the "New Heights" podcast can do so at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday. The episode will drop on YouTube, which will contain a full video feed of the podcast episode. YouTube will be the only platform on which fans of Kelce and Swift will be able to see them interact on video. However, numerous podcast platforms will also carry the episode, allowing Swifties to listen to the entire episode. Below are some of the listening options for viewers, listed alphabetically: Billboards may reveal a major clue about 'Life of a Showgirl' Shortly after Swift broke the news of the name of her 12th era, a billboard in New York City directed fans to a Spotify playlist featuring songs from a familiar producer. The "And, baby, that's show business for you ❤️🔥" playlist has 22 Swift tracks all produced by Swedish mastermind Max Martin, who worked heavily with Swift and Swedish producer Shellback on her "1989" and "Reputation" albums. Swift dedicated a special acoustic medley to Martin at a Stockholm Eras Tour show. "Max is actually here tonight, but he's a shy genius so I'm not going to bring him out onstage, but I am going to play what I am calling the 'Max Martin Medley,'" she said. Swift combined "Message In A Bottle" from "Red (Taylor's Version)" — the first song she worked on with Martin — with "How You Get The Girl" and "New Romantics" from "1989 (Taylor's Version)." If Martin and Shellback are the main producers on the new album, it will be the first record in a handful of projects that Swift's main collaborators aren't Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner. Another possible collaboration is with singer and Eras Tour opening act Sabrina Carpenter, who is featured in the 12-photo carousel posted by Taylor Nation teasing her 12th era. Questions remain While Swifties may feel like they've endured a lifetime's worth of suspense in the lead-up to the announcement of Swift's 12th album, it's really only the beginning. Swift will keep them on their toes awaiting singles, videos, track lists and more. She also has a Searchlight Pictures movie project, a potential Eras Tour documentary, vault tracks from her "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" album and a debut album that the singer admits is fully rerecorded, not to mention trademarks for "Taylor-Con" and "Female Rage: The Musical."

Ivanka Trump, a student of jiu-jitsu, may play a key role in the White House UFC fight
Ivanka Trump has been sharpening her Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills. And while her moves may not be on display for the occasion, she'll play a key role when the Ultimate Fighting Championship, a professional mixed-martial arts organization, stages its fight on the White House grounds as part of America's 250th birthday celebrations. The first daughter will be involved in the planning of the historic UFC fight on July 4, 2026, a White House official told USA TODAY. President Donald Trump first introduced the idea of hosting the UFC fight last month while talking about special events around the country to celebrate the anniversary of American independence. 'I even think we're going to have a UFC fight,' he said during an Iowa rally last month. 'We're going to have a UFC fight. Think of this – on the grounds of the White House. We have a lot of land there,' he said. 'It's gonna be a championship fight, full fight, like 20-25,000 people.' Seeing 'oceanfront property' in Ukraine, Trump's real estate history shapes his presidency The president is known to be fascinated with the sport, having attended three UFC events since his election in November. At the Republican National Convention, Dana White, the president of the organization, introduced him to the crowd. White told CBS Mornings that he had chatted with Trump about the event on Aug. 11, and was planning to visit Washington, D.C., toward the end of the month to discuss details with the president and his daughter. 'He said, 'I want Ivanka in the middle of this,'' White told 'CBS Mornings.' 'So Ivanka reached out to me, and her and I started talking about the possibilities.' Meanwhile, Ivana Trump, also of fan of UFC – judging by her social media posts – has talked about her introduction into the martial arts. A mother of three, Ivanka Trump, said her whole family got involved after her daughter Arabella began taking jiu-jitsu lessons. 'It's almost like a moving meditation because the movements are so micro,' she said in an interview with the YouTube Jui Jitsu Channel. 'It's like three-dimensional chess. I'll watch Ultimate Fighting and … see some of these moves are so subtle. It's fun.' Ivanka Trump, who served as a senior advisor in the White House during her father's first term in office, has kept a low profile in the first six months of his second term. But that might be about to change. Swapna Venugopal Ramaswamy is a White House correspondent for USA TODAY. You can follow her on X @SwapnaVenugopal
