Woody Allen, 89, still holding hands with his much-younger wife Soon-Yi, 54, after 27 years of marriage in rare sighting
Woody Allen held hands with his third wife Soon-Yi Previn as the enjoyed a date night at Italian restaurant Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, CA on Saturday. At 89, the disgraced director is 35 years older than the special education expert, who was adopted from Korea by his longtime ex-partner Mia Farrow and her second ex-husband André Previn back in 1978. Woody (born Allan Konigsberg) and Soon-Yi (born Oh Soon-hee) have been married for 27 years, and they're proud parents of adopted daughters Bechet Allen and Manzie Tio Allen. 26-year-old Bechet works as an assistant to Gagosian Gallery curator Michael Cary, and 25-year-old Manzie works as an assistant to Emily in Paris showrunner Darren Star. Between 2014-2015, Allen and Previn reportedly used to enjoy monthly dinners with the late Jeffrey Epstein, whose name is still dominating headlines over the Trump administration's refusal to reveal his list of clients. 'Woody and Soon-Yi lived in the same neighborhood as Epstein and were frequently invited to dinner parties at his townhouse,' a spokeswoman for the couple told the Wall Street Journal in 2023. 'There were always other guests at those gatherings. Woody never had a business meeting with Epstein and not once spent time with him without Soon-Yi also being present.' Chelsea Handler happened to be a guest at one of those dinners with Woody, Soon-Yi, and the convicted pedophile at his Upper East Side townhouse where she famously asked the couple 'So how did you two meet?' 'There's no chance that I as myself am going to sit across from the table from him and his daughter wife and not tell him what I on behalf of women everywhere. I will not never be silent,' the 50-year-old comedian recalled on Mike Birbiglia's Working It Out podcast on July 14. 'I was there to make sure he knew and everyone at the table knew how I felt before I left. like, "Don't think I'm okay. I'm not okay with this."' Previn never considered Allen a father figure despite the 80-year-old Rosemary's Baby alum dating him for 12 years spanning 1980-1992 until Mia discovered nude Polaroids of her then 21-year-old daughter at his home. Seven months later, Farrow publicly accused the Bronx-born filmmaker of molesting her seven-year-old adopted daughter Dylan Farrow. Woody - who was never charged or prosecuted - quickly sued the Roommate thespian for full custody of their son Satchel (now Ronan) and her adopted children Dylan and Moses. In his 33-page decision in 1993, Justice Elliott Wilk rejected Allen's bid for custody of all three of their children and called his behavior toward Dylan 'grossly inappropriate' while also rejecting the sexual abuse allegations. And while 40-year-old Dylan stands by the allegations, her 47-year-old brother Moses publicly denied she was ever abused and alleged Mia had abused him in a 2018 WordPress post. The 50-year-old comedian told the Working It Out podcast on July 14: 'There's no chance that I as myself am going to sit across from the table from him and his daughter wife and not tell him what I on behalf of women everywhere. I will not never be silent' The four-time Oscar winner's last American movie - A Rainy Day in New York - coincided with the #MeToo movement in 2019 and cast members Elle Fanning, Selena Gomez, Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Hall, and Griffin Newman donated their salaries to support sexual assault organizations. Some of Woody's outspoken supporters have included Sean Penn, Diane Keaton, Scarlett Johansson, Alec Baldwin, Cherry Jones, Bill Maher, Jude Law, Javier Bardem, Cate Blanchett, Gina Gershon, Jim Belushi, Juno Temple, Michael Caine, and Jeff Goldblum. Kate Winslet, Drew Barrymore, Evan Rachel Wood, David Krumholtz, Greta Gerwig, Mira Sorvino, Rachel Brosnahan, Jeff Daniels, Peter Sarsgaard, Natalie Portman, Colin Firth, Hayley Atwell, Freida Pinto, Chloe Sevigny, and Marion Cotillard have said they won't work with Allen again. Woody's last film, the French-language Coup de Chance, was critically-acclaimed and earned $7.8M at the box office in 2023. Allen produced and narrated Spanish directing duo Xosé Zapata and Lorenzo Degl'Innocenti's Bobby Fischer-inspired animated short film Mr. Fischer's Chair, which will reportedly be released next month.

Denise Welch admits she fears son Matty Healy's reaction to her savage Taylor Swift remarks.... but it still doesn't stop her from taking a swipe at ANOTHER A-lister in shock rant
shared her concerns she may have gone too far after taking aim at Taylor Swift during her appearance on Bravo TV's Watch What Happens Live on Thursday. Denise's rockstar son Matty Healy famously dated the pop sensation for a brief period in 2023, and speaking candidly during the interview, the presenter told host Andy Cohen 'being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost.' However it seems the actress may have already been regretting her comments on Swift by the end of the interview after Andy asked whether she thought she would have any remorse tomorrow. 'Just a couple of things,' Denise replied sheepishly as the host asked: 'Are you going to hear from your son?' as she added: 'Yeah'. Denise continued: 'It's hard to have mums on the telly and I've had my issues, well documented in the UK, issues over the years of self-medication and stuff. 'So the fact my kids are so wonderful and grounded and still love us is really quite something, but yes I probably will hear from [Matty],' she laughed. Yet Taylor Swift wasn't the only star subject to Denise's honestly during the chat after she was also asked who the worst person she had interviewed. Not holding back in her response, Denise revealed 80 year old American actress Mia Farrow was 'difficult' to talk to as she described her as 'monosyllabic'. After deliberating for a few moments she began: 'The worst one probably Mia Farrow, who I adore and I literally was gobsmacked to have her on. 'But she just kind of didn't get it, you know when someone is just monosyllabic? So it was a very difficult interview, but she was maybe having a bad day but that just stands out as ''kill me now, get me out of here please''.' Earlier in the interview Andy quizzed her about what it was like when Taylor — who has moved on with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — released her Tortured Poets Department album in 2024. Fans have claimed that the 35-year-old singer, who is famous for using her romantic relationships as fodder for her songs, wrote several of the songs on the chart-topping album about her short-lived romance with Healy. But Denise seemed to accuse Swifties of lashing out at anyone who dares to criticize the hitmaker, even as she takes ultra-personal digs at her exes in her massively popular songs. Asked about her reaction to the album, Denise replied: 'Obviously, on pain of death can I talk about that episode, but being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost.' 'It's hard to have mums on the telly... So the fact my kids are so wonderful and grounded and still love us is really quite something, but yes I probably will hear from [Matty],' she laughed Elsewhere in the chat Denise revealed 80 year old American actress Mia Farrow is the worst celebrity she has interview as she described her as 'difficult' to talk to and 'monosyllabic Denise seemed to accuse Swifties of lashing out at anyone who dares to criticize the hitmaker, even as she takes ultra-personal digs at her exes in her massively popular song (pictured in 2023) Attempting to calm the shocked gasps from the audience, Denise added: 'Not that I have anything against her at all! 'It was just — it was tricky.' The Celebrity Big Brother then paused before taking her chances speaking about Swift. Denise seemed to suggested that Swift's fans police any critical statements about the pop star, who is then free to settle scores via her songs. 'She — listen, you're not allowed to say anything, and then she writes a whole album about it,' Denise said. But she clarified that her son — the frontman for The 1975 — is taking the aftermath of Swift's album 'all in completely good grace.' Denise also said Matty was 'very happy with his amazing fiancée Gabriella,' a model and singer who works under the name Gabbriette, whom she called 'gorgeous.' 'So, we've moved on,' she added to applause.

MacKenzie Scott's Instagram Comments Are Dragging Her Into the Jeff Bezos Wedding Drama
It's a good day to be MacKenzie Scott as criticisms of her ex-husband Jeff Bezos and his opulent wedding have spun into a wave of support for her philanthropy. Scott did not attend Bezos' star-studded wedding to his second wife, Lauren Sánchez, on June 27. Nor has she publicly commented on the event, which ignited protests in Venice as the Amazon founder and his guests descended upon the Italian city. However, that hasn't stopped her from being associated with the controversial nuptials. More from SheKnows 25 of the Most Expensive Celebrity Weddings of All Time The notoriously private author has only one post on her verified Instagram account, a photo of herself, which was shared in October 2020 with no caption. Yet, her comments section has erupted as social media users, some real, some fake, flock to acknowledge Scott's use of her wealth, which radically opposes her ex-husband's. 'You'll probably never read this but… thank you for being such a classy, kind, and generous human being,' one such comment reads, likely referencing staggering charitable donations in the years since her divorce from Bezos (Scott has donated $19.2 billion since 2019, according to a December report from AP News). Scott also got a shoutout from actress Mia Farrow the day after Sánchez married Bezos in a Dolce & Gabbana look estimated to be worth upwards of $200,000. 'How awesome is MacKenzie Scott!' the Rosemary's Baby actress wrote in a caption noting Scott's philanthropic efforts, a thinly-veiled jab at Bezos, which was supported by other celebrities, including Olivia Munn. Scott, who shares four children with Bezos, married the famed entrepreneur in 1993, a year before Amazon was founded. She was one of the online store's first employees, building it from the ground up while raising her young family with Bezos. In 2019, after reports accused Bezos of having an affair with Sánchez, the couple dissolved their marriage in one of the most expensive divorces in history. Scott walked away with $35.6 billion in Amazon stock, making her one of the wealthiest women in the world. The exes appeared to remain amicable. 'If we had known we would separate after 25 years, we would do it all again,' their statement announcing their divorce read. Since then, Scott has done her best to prove that their divorce was never about the money, giving away hefty sums of money in no-strings-attached donations. 'The scale of this giving has really not just changed individual organizations but changed entire fields like affordable housing,' one of Scott's recipients, Shaun Donovan, CEO of the affordable housing organization Enterprise Community Partners, told AP. Scott rarely comments on her philanthropy and most certainly does not comment on her ex-husband, but her supporters would happily declare that she is definitely showing him up as far as giving back to society is of SheKnows A Look Back At Lindsay Lohan's Long-Term Relationships Over the Years All the Best Fashion Moments from Lindsay Lohan's Acting Comeback 7 Epic Ways Margot Robbie Has Celebrated Her Birthday Over The Years — From 24-Hour Parties To Her Barbie-Themed Bash
