Britney Spears ends relationship with Paul Richard Soliz for second time after February breakup
Britney Spears has reportedly ended her on-again, off-again relationship with Paul Richard Soliz for the second time, Page Six confirms. Sources say the pair, who began dating in 2023, quietly split in late February.
Their breakup came just weeks after the two were seen spending Valentine's Day together, grabbing dinner at a Jack in the Box drive-thru with Soliz's children. Earlier that month, Spears, 43, was also spotted with several of the kids at an indoor playground in California's San Fernando Valley.
Following the split, sources told TMZ that Soliz, 38, moved his belongings out of Spears' Thousand Oaks home, where the couple had been living together. Page Six reached out to Spears' representative for comment but has not yet received a response.
Spears and Soliz first became romantically involved after she hired him to do maintenance work at her home. Their relationship became public around the time of her separation from ex-husband Sam Asghari. Spears previously ended things with Soliz in July 2024, reportedly due to concerns that he was taking advantage of her wealth and lifestyle.
During their time together, Spears developed a strong bond with several of Soliz's children, particularly his sons Trystan, Dylan, and Nicholas, a.k.a. 'Sonny.' One insider said the boys brought 'life and laughter' to her home and described it as 'filled with love.'
However, a second source described the relationship as 'turbulent' and said Spears' inner circle was relieved by the split.
With Soliz now out of the picture, Spears appears to be turning the page on another chapter of her personal life.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom to reportedly split after her Lifetimes tour ends: "It's over"
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship is reportedly over, with sources revealing that the couple is set to part ways once Perry's 'Lifetimes' tour wraps up. The couple, who got engaged in 2019 and share a daughter, Daisy Dove, have been facing ongoing struggles, with a breakup expected in the near future. An insider close to the pair told Page Six, 'It's over,' adding that they are simply waiting for the tour, which began on April 23 and runs through December 7, to finish before making the split official. The relationship has been under increasing strain, with sources attributing much of the tension to Perry's recent frustrations surrounding the release of her album 143. The album's poor reception has caused stress in the relationship, with another source mentioning that Perry was also upset about some of the reviews of her tour performances. This marks the second time the couple has faced significant challenges. They previously separated for a year in 2017 before reuniting. Despite previously seeking therapy to resolve their issues, sources indicate that the couple's differences may now be insurmountable.

The 27-year-old's letter, which was confirmed by TMZ, offers an unconventional perspective on his time behind bars. Photo: TMZ Mangione's gratitude list, released following his birthday on May 6, includes a mix of light-hearted, irreverent remarks alongside more serious acknowledgments.

Judge dismisses Justin Baldoni's $400 million defamation lawsuit against Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds
A federal judge has dismissed actor and director Justin Baldoni's $400 million defamation lawsuit against Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, marking a significant development in the legal feud stemming from the 2024 film It Ends With Us. The ruling, issued Monday by Judge Lewis J. Liman, also included the dismissal of Baldoni's $250 million libel suit against The New York Times. Baldoni, who co-starred and directed the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover's novel, had alleged that Lively, Reynolds, and publicist Leslie Sloane defamed him in connection with Lively's civil rights complaint filed in December 2024. The complaint included allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation, and a smear campaign during and after the film's production. Baldoni, who has denied the allegations, filed his countersuit in January. According to court documents obtained by multiple outlets including Page Six and CNN, Judge Liman determined that Lively's complaint was protected by legal privilege under California law, which shields such statements made in civil rights proceedings. Additionally, the court ruled that Baldoni failed to show that Reynolds, Sloane, or The New York Times acted with 'actual malice' or seriously doubted the truth of the statements in question—criteria necessary to sustain a defamation claim. The court allowed Baldoni until June 23 to amend two claims: breach of the implied covenant of good faith and tortious interference with contract. These claims relate to alleged disruptions to existing agreements and potential reputational damage involving Reynolds and Lively. In a statement to Page Six, Lively's attorneys, Esra Hudson and Mike Gottlieb, called the decision a 'total victory and a complete vindication.' They further criticized Baldoni's lawsuit as a 'sham' and stated their intent to pursue attorneys' fees, punitive damages, and treble damages. While Baldoni's legal team did not immediately respond to requests for comment, the broader legal battle remains active, with a trial date set for March 2026.
