Ellen DeGeneres shares a look at her life in the country
Ellen DeGeneres looks to be enjoying life in the English countryside. The former daytime talk-show host recently shared with her social media followers how different both she and her view look these days. In a video posted on her verified Instagram account, a now brunette DeGeneres is seen riding a lawnmower on her British estate. The comedian shared the video in the form of the popular 'How it started…how it's going' trend. The footage start with her riding the mower and ends with her needing to be pushed when the machine breaks down. 'Portia thought it would be fun to film my first time on the mower,' the caption reads. 'She was right.' The actress Portia de Rossi has been married to DeGeneres since 2008. DeGeneres and de Rossi reportedly moved to the United Kingdom in November 2024. The move came more than two years after 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' finished its run in 2022. The show wrapped two years after a controversy involving former staff members, who alleged they faced intimidation and racism while working on the popular daytime show. DeGeneres issued an apology to her staff in July 2020. 'On day one of our show, I told everyone in our first meeting that 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' would be a place of happiness – no one would ever raise their voice, and everyone would be treated with respect,' DeGeneres said then. 'Obviously, something changed, and I am disappointed to learn that this has not been the case. And for that, I am sorry. Anyone who knows me knows it's the opposite of what I believe and what I hoped for our show.' She joked about the situation in her Netflix comedy special, 'Ellen's Last Stand…Up.' 'Let me catch you up on what's been going on with me since you last saw me,' she said. 'I got chickens. Oh yeah, and I got kicked out of show business for being mean.'

Taylor Swift's boyfriend Travis Kelce spends the afternoon with her former 'celebrity crush'
Taylor Swift's boyfriend Travis Kelce enjoyed a round of golf with her former 'celebrity crush' Justin Timberlake. The 35-year-old star Kansas City Chiefs player recently played in the 44-year-old pop star's 8AM Golf Invitational in Las Vegas. On Wednesday, Justin took to his Instagram to post a fun video of their group singing and dancing to Midnight Star's 1984 hit Curious alongside comedian Andrew Santino. Travis took charge as he grabbed his golf club and sung into the head like a microphone as Justin and Andrew, 41, danced behind him. The cute video ended with Justin and Travis sharing a handshake and a laugh together. The group hit the fairways for two rounds of golf - with Timberlake's team emerging victorious - before soaking up the delights of the strip. Back in 2008, Travis' megastar girlfriend Taylor Swift, 35, revealed that Justin was her 'musical crush' on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. At the time Ellen had then proceeded to bring out Justin to surprise Taylor at the time. Taylor was starstruck as she told the SexyBack hitmaker: 'Wow! It's really good to meet you. This is the best surprise ever. This is the best day ever.' At the time the NSYNC member even gave Taylor dating advice as he said: 'Where do I start? Ladies, you are just smarter than us. See, I've accepted that. 'I'm much more comfortable in my stupidity and I just roll with it, you know? So that makes me less of a jerk.' Meanwhile, Travis has embroiled himself in a bit of Taylor related drama on social media. Amidst the alleged drama between Taylor and Blake Lively, their significant others seem to be getting involved as Travis has now unfollowed Lively's husband Ryan Reynolds on Instagram. Though fans are not sure when exactly this unfollowing took place, there is widespread speculation that it happened on Sunday. It appears that Ryan still follows the Kansas City Chiefs star - though it's unclear whether this will change or whether he is currently aware of Travis' unfollowing. As for Taylor and Blake, the Simple Favor actress still follows the popstar. Taylor does not follow anyone on Instagram, Lively included. Blake doesn't follow Travis but it's unclear whether this is a new development or she just never followed him in the first place. All of this drama stems from the controversy that surrounds Lively's issues with her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni. Last week, exclusively revealed how Taylor and Hugh Jackman look set to be subpoenaed in the latest awkward turn of events in the ongoing legal battle between Blake and Justin. The A-listers were dragged into the increasingly toxic scuffle earlier this year after Lively, 37, filed a lawsuit against her It Ends with Us costar in December, accusing him of sexual harassment and creating a 'hostile work environment on set.' Baldoni, 41, retaliated with his own $400 million filing against the actress, along with her husband, 48, accusing the couple of trying to tarnish his reputation. The rancorous back-and-forth is scheduled for a trial on March 29, 2026. All parties have denied respective allegations. Now, a source has told the Daily Mail that Jackman and Swift – who has not been seen with her best pal Lively since being hauled into the mess – will most 'definitely be served this week.' It was just reported earlier this month that Lively and Swift had patched their feud which seemed to be brought on by Lively allegedly dragging Swift into her It Ends With Us drama. Prior to that, the pair of friends were reportedly not on speaking terms. This changed when Lively was said to have apologized to Swift for the effects of her legal battle with Baldoni. It was even The pair have been friends since 2015 and have only grown closer since - not including their recent rift. Lively even accompanied her children to Swift's tours.

Aubrey Plaza separated from late husband before he died
Aubrey Plaza had reportedly been separated from her husband Jeff Baena at the time of his death earlier this year. "According to the reported information, the decedent Jeffrey Baena is a 47-year-old Caucasian male," the Los Angeles medical examiner wrote in the synopsis of an investigative summary report, which was obtained by Us Weekly. "He was experiencing recent marital difficulties and was separated from his wife since September 2024." News broke in January that Baena died by suicide after he was found unconscious inside his Los Angeles home. According to the medical examiner's report, Baena's dog walker discovered his body. "This is an unimaginable tragedy," a spokesperson for Plaza shared at the time. "We are deeply grateful to everyone who has offered support. Please respect our privacy during this time." Baena and the Parks and Recreation star met in 2011 before tying the knot in 2020. "A lot of things happened during COVID for me. Yes, we got married. Big deal," Plaza recalled during a December 2021 appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. "We got a little bored one night. We got married and I'll tell you how: That's real, look it up." Plaza has not further addressed Baena's death, nor their alleged separation. She made her first public appearance since his passing at the SNL 50 anniversary special in February.

Stephen ‘Twitch' Boss' family mulling legal action against widow Allison Holker
The family of Stephen 'Twitch' Boss are gearing up to take legal action against his widow, Allison Holker, over claims she has made about the late DJ since his death by suicide in December 2022. The public feud was sparked by the release Holker's memoir, 'This Far: My Story of Love, Loss, and Embracing the Light,' earlier this month. It contains no shortage of bombshell allegations about the former 'Ellen DeGeneres Show' producer, including that he struggled with substance abuse. In a statement shared on Instagram, Boss' family said they were 'completely appalled by the misleading accounts and inconsistencies in Allison's book.' They added that they have 'repeatedly shown compassion toward Allison despite her disrespectful and evasive actions,' and went on to accuse her of trying to 'reshape' Boss' 'story into a narrative that aligns with her perspective. 'Stephen does not deserve this treatment, in life or death, and her accounts cause us to doubt everything she has uttered publicly and privately,' the family continued. 'Due to the unproven statements published in Allison's memoir, we have decided to seek legal counsel to examine this matter,' they concluded. 'There are a lot of unanswered questions and we want answers.' The family also said Holker — who shares kids Weslie, 16, Maddox, 8, and Zaia, 6, with Boss — caused 'unnecessary hurt' through allegations made in wake of the TV personality's death. In her memoir, Holker acknowledged knowing about her husband's marijuana use, but said she 'had no idea that Stephen was in an almost constant state of being high.' She also recalled going through his things after his suicide, which is how she uncovered a 'cornucopia of drugs' in his closet. 'What I found was a lot more than shoes,' she wrote. 'There were ziplocked bags of psychedelic mushrooms—some of the bags were full; some were half-empty; a few contained only one or two mushrooms. There were other substances that I had to look up on my phone.' According to Boss' autopsy, there were not drugs in his system at the time of his death. He was 40 years old. Boss' mother, Connie Boss, in an interview earlier this week disputed the claim that her son had been abusing drugs. 'I don't believe that there was that type of issue, that type of problem,' Connie said on CBS. 'And don't get me wrong, I applaud speaking about mental health awareness, 'cause of course, there was something going on there at the end that we're not aware of.'
