EXCLUSIVE A top MAGA defector has told me the REAL revenge Elon's plotting... it could destroy Trump's legacy: KENNEDY
The long-predicted separation of President Donald Trump and Elon Musk is here. Love-blind optimists always prayed that the world's most powerful man and the world's richest man could keep their curious bromance alive, and the teary-eyed, televised Oval Office farewell that Elon received on Friday seemed to suggest that there was hope for these political darlings.

White House boasts about Trump's golf score – days after he was accused of cheating on his own course
The White House on Saturday posted President Donald Trump 's winning golf score from a tournament at his New Jersey golf club, boasting about his win just days after he was accused of cheating on another course. 'Winning on and off the course,' the official White House Instagram page wrote, showing the final score card from the 2025 Men's Senior Club Championship tournament at Trump National in Bedminster. At the top of the card was Trump's gross score of 69 – representing the number of golf strokes the president took on each hole in the tournament. Adjusted with his handicap, the numerical measure of how well a person golfs by either adding or deducting strokes from the gross score, Trump's net score was 67. The score means the president has a handicap of around 2, which is considered very impressive for a non-professional golfer. But a number of commenters on the Instagram post did not appear excited about the president's score, many joking that just last week, reports accused Trump of cheating on his golf course in Scotland. 'Yo we saw the video from Scotland last week, he just throws the ball where he wants it and makes up a score,' one commenter wrote. 'I mean yeah, I'd win too if my caddy was dropping balls on the course for me,' another Instagram user wrote on the post. While on a trip to Scotland in July, a widely-circulated video of the president golfing at his course in Turnberry appeared to insinuate that Trump cheats at his beloved game. The president's caddy appeared to drop Trump's ball closer to the fairway – which some interpreted as a violation of the rules of golf, which generally says to play the ball where it lies. Allegations that Trump cheats at golf date back to before his first term. Some have accused him of using his caddies or Secret Service detail to move his ball. Others claim the president himself has kicked his ball to make it easier to hit. Trump has always denied the allegations. The cheating allegations have been so rampant that one sports writer, Rick Reilly, even wrote an entire book on it, titled Commander in Cheat. In response to the president's recent win, Reilly wrote on X, 'The 4 guys in Trump's group finished 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th. Trump has a magic pencil. #CommanderInCheat' However, some professionals who have played alongside the president say he is actually quite a good golfer. Jack Nicklaus, a hall-of-fame golfer, said in 2020 that Trump plays 'pretty well.' Tom Watson, a former professional golfer, said in 2017 that the president was a good hitter and 'can really get the ball out there.' Trump is passionate about golf; he famously played often during his first term in office and continues to play often now. According to a website that tracks the number of golf trips the president takes, he's golfed approximately 49 out of the 196 days he's been in office. Earlier this year, Trump said he won the golf club championship at his golf club in Palm Beach, Florida, as well.

Iconic 70s film star is unrecognizable as she wears shirt teasing her famous role in John Travolta classic
Fans of iconic '70s films were in for a treat this week when one of the era's most beloved stars was spotted out and about in New York. The legendary actress, now 74, rose to fame in the 1978 smash hit Grease - and on Tuesday, was seen running errands on a sunny afternoon, dressed in a laid-back ensemble. But eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice the pink polo she was wearing — an obvious nod to her days as one of the Pink Ladies, the girl gang from Rydell High, where John Travolta 's Danny Zuko and Olivia Newton-John 's Sandy Olsson made movie magic. Even the most die-hard fans might also recognize her from her run as Denise on the sitcom Benson from 1981 to 1984. She also starred alongside Ringo Starr on the beloved children's show Shining Time Station. So, can you guess who she is? It's Didi Conn! The screen icon played Frenchy in the hit musical. Back in 2018, Didi spoke with Daily Mail about the wild behind-the-scenes moments from that unforgettable summer in 1977 when they filmed the movie. She revealed that Travolta had a well-known crush on co-star Newton-John and recalled how Stockard Channing's special brownies hilariously blurred her memories of the film's wrap party. Didi discussed heartthrob John's no-so-secret infatuation with Aussie beauty Olivia while they filmed the iconic film, noting that a then 23-year-old John—fresh off his Welcome Home, Kotter! fame—didn't have to fake his attraction for 29-year-old hitmaker Olivia. The pair's electric chemistry was palpable for filmgoers as they played smitten teens Danny Zuko and Sandy Olsson, and Didi has now revealed that the film's new release showcases their natural energy with an extra special ending that sees the pair sharing a 'juicy' kiss. 'Oh yeah [he did fancy her],' she shared. 'What was so much fun was that most of us were older than the characters we were playing so we just stayed in character all day long. So there was an ongoing improvisation happening so the flirting, let's just say the flirting, was fine, it was in the context of the characters and the storyline.' Playing characters close to their real ages meant the cast never fully broke character, experiencing true coming-of-age moments—none more memorable than at the film's wrap party. The star, who later revisited her role in Grease 2, admitted that she remembers little of the star-studded bash after co-star Stockard Channing made the cast some 'special brownies' that left her giggling on the floor. Fans were quick to notice the pink polo she was wearing — an obvious nod to her days as one of the Pink Ladies, the sassy girl gang from Rydell High She said: 'I don't remember much about the wrap party because Stockard Channing gave everybody some brownie she made. 'I really don't remember much, just dancing and lying on the floor laughing with everybody.' And that wild streak was apparent throughout the entirety of filming as she revealed that the party never stopped after the cameras stopped rolling. 'Let's just say some of the trailers were rocking and rolling during filming,' she shared. 'There was. Y'know I played Frenchy and Frenchy is a good friend so she wouldn't tell.'

I married an older man for his money, I planned to milk him dry but now we're in love – trolls still don't believe me
AFTER matching with a sugar daddy online, one woman was shocked when their relationship turned from financial support into true love. Carrie, 31, matched with her soon-to-be husband on Tinder, planning to "milk him dry". 2 And while 64-year-old Randy admits he knew her intentions were financially motivated, he set out to change her priorities. With Randy hoping for love and Carrie simply seeking a sugar daddy, he joked that they would "see who comes out on top". And as it turns out, Carrie was able to "get the bag" while also falling in love. "Randy started off as my sugar daddy and now we're in love so I'm finally marrying my sugar daddy," she explained on the Truly Show. The couple first met on Tinder five years ago, with Carrie openly seeking financial help and Randy, fresh from a 25 year marriage adament to never marry again. Thinking they were both in the relationship for a fun time, not a long time, Carrie admits: "My first intention was to milk him dry." But when Randy told her to give him a month to change her life, she decided to take a chance. Randy claims he fell in love with his fiance within six months, and soon changed his mind on marriage. And despite people calling Carrie a gold digger, Randy said her honesty about her financial situation only attracted him more. Now, she calls him her "first and last sugar daddy", joking that she gets him a pack of gum for special occasions while he lavishes her with whatever she wants. I'm 32 years younger than my man - his son's only 2 years older than me & trolls call me a gold digger but we're in love Randy revealed that the most expensive thing he has ever purchased for Carrie was her engagement ring, popping the question in Vegas. And while he originally intended to elope on that same trip, the couple are now planning a big wedding with no budget. With no wedding date in place as of yet, the couple are enjoying the engagement phase, with Carrie already having signed a prenup. Randy shared that his bride is already in his will anyway. And when it comes to haters, the couple said they don't care as they are "having a blast". A-list age gap relationships that have stood the test of time Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble - 25 years The Kardashian matriarch, 69, met her younger man, 44, at a mutual friend's 40th birthday party in Ibiza. They've been together since August 2014. Sam & Aaron Taylor-Johnson - 23 years The director, 57, and actor, 34, reportedly met at a film audition in 2009, and were married by 2012. The pair share two daughters and Sam has two children from a previous marriage. Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley & Jason Statham - 20 years The model, 37, started dating actor Jason, 57, in 2010. They were wed in 2016 and have since welcomed a son and a daughter together. Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas - 25 years Catherine, 55, was introduced to Michael, 80, a film festival in 1996 and engaged three years later. Shortly after their engagement, the couple welcomed a son and married in 2000. The judgement is mostly from online trolls, with most people in real life simply mistaking them for father and daughter. Randy joked that he often gets a thumbs up from other men when they realise the nature of their relationship. He added that he loves the attention they receive when they walk into a room. More on age gap relationships Another woman met her husband when she was 19 and he was 41, and now they have a family together. And a 25-year-old woman shared the backlash she receives for dating a 76-year-old man. A woman who is dating a man 32 years older than her revealed that she is often called a gold digger. Plus, a couple with a 21-year age gap shared an insight into their relationship. People say how another age gap couple met is a red flag but they disagree. 2
