“I’m just not a tech-y person… I guess I don’t relate to it, which probably makes me irrelevant.”On her aversion to social media MICHELLE WILLIAMS “‘Think of it as, like, you got your PhD.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton “are on the path to getting married,” a source tells Us, but first, “there are obstacles they have to deal with.” In January, Us reported that the couple, who began dating in 2015, were taking things slow for the sake of Gwen’s three sons, Kingston, 12, Zuma, 10, and Apollo, 4 (Gwen and their dad, Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale, divorced the same year). Now, their living arrangement is also an obstacle because Blake, 42, currently splits his time between his native Oklahoma and Los Angeles, and Gwen is based in LA, where her kids live. KEEPING THE FAITH The “Hollaback Girl” singer, 49, and former Voice judge recently turned to a higher power for help clearing their hurdles. “Gwen and Blake met with her priest…

When rapper 21 Savage was arrested on Feb. 3 for overstaying his visa — fans were surprised to learn the Atlanta-based rapper, 26, was born in England — insensitive memes followed, and Demi Lovato unwittingly found herself in hot water. She tweeted that 21 Savage memes were her “favorite part of the Super Bowl,” and after a swift backlash, the singer, 26, tried to explain herself (above), but then deleted her Twitter account. “This is why I don’t tweet anymore,” she wrote before signing off. OFFLINE This isn’t the first time the “Sober” singer has had social media issues. In January, she called out an Instagram ad for “fat-shaming” (right), and in 2016, she briefly deleted both Twitter and Instagram. But Demi has also used social media as a tool…

A mazel is in order! Andy Cohen welcomed his first child, Benjamin Allen Cohen, on Feb. 4. “I’m in love. And speechless. And eternally grateful to an incredible surrogate,” said the Bravo host, 50. And lucky Ben already has loads of fairy-godwives, who know firsthand how paternal he is. “He’s really great with all of us… hens,” Real Housewives of New York’s Sonja Morgan tells Us. “I see how good he is with his dog [beagle mix Wacha],” she notes. “He’s going to be a good dad.” Luann de Lesseps agrees with her costar. “It’s something… he’s wanted for a long time,” says the Countess. “I’m thrilled.” And the Bravo family is already helping to take care of baby Benjamin! Beverly Hills Housewife Erika Jayne tells Us she bought the…

Thomas Markle is once again talking about his famous daughter in the press. The former lighting director, 74, shared the contents of a five-page letter Meghan Markle, 37, sent to him three months after she walked down the aisle to wed Prince Harry. In it, Meghan, who addresses the letter to “Daddy,” begs her father to “please allow us to live our lives in peace. Please stop lying. Please stop creating so much pain.” HURT UPON HURT “Meghan really hoped Thomas wouldn’t leak the letter,” a source tells Us. “She finds it absolutely heartbreaking that her own flesh and blood continues to profit from her.” Still, given her father’s past actions (days before her nuptials, he was caught staging paparazzi photos), the mother-to-be wasn’t shocked. She was careful with her…

How do you and Kroy keep your kids grounded while raising them on TV? KZ Kroy runs a very tight ship. I’m the “yes” parent and…

Rebecca’s Tweenage Dreams Raising a tween isn’t easy — so imagine raising twin tweens! “[Dolly and Charlie] are sassy,” Rebecca Romijn says about her 10-year-olds. And sometimes, “they cop a little attitude,” adds dad Jerry O’Connell, noting that his wife is “way better at handling it than I am.” But the couple still love seeing their girls grow up, sass and all. “The more developed they become, the more I enjoy them,” gushes the actress. “They’re great human beings.” Rebecca, 46, shares her parenting tips with Us. Do you consider yourself strict? RR Between the two of us, I’m probably more of a disciplinarian. What are you strict about? RR [Dolly and Charlie] have been begging for phones because a lot of their friends already have them. Are you going…

After a tumultuous year — much of which played out in front of the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation cameras—Ronnie Ortiz-Magro decided it was time to seek help for his depression and alcohol use. “I basically hit rock bottom,” the reality star, 33, tells Us exclusively. “I decided to go to treatment because I wanted to be a better person, a better father.” After over a month in a Florida rehab center, the Bronx, N.Y., native, who shares daughter Ariana Sky, 10 months, with his on-again, off-again girlfriend Jen Harley, says he’s “completely sober.” UPS AND DOWNS The couple’s rocky relationship has been fraught with cheating allegations and physical altercations. On June 24, Ronnie was left bruised and bloody after being dragged from a car (Jen, 31, was in the driver’s…

Ben Affleck and Lindsay Shookus “have been talking and have seen each other again” nearly six months after calling it quits, a source tells Us. Around the time of their split in August, the Justice League actor, 46, began a brief fling with Playboy model Shauna Sexton and entered a 40-day rehab program for alcoholism. Today, “Ben is in a much better place healthwise and is a lot happier,” says the source, adding that the Saturday Night Live producer, 38, was the one to reach out to her ex. “It wouldn’t be surprising if they got back together.”…

Finding fame so young did a number on Justin, who admits he lost touch with reality and “started really feeling myself too much” as an older teen. His troubles ranged from the violent (lunging at a photographer in 2013) to the ridiculous (egging a neighbor’s house) and mug shot-worthy (getting arrested for DUI the same year). His tumultuous relationship with Selena Gomez also didn’t help. “It got pretty dark,” he says. “I think there were times when my security was coming in late at night to check my pulse and see if I was still breathing.” Since getting involved with Hailey, he’s stayed on the straight and narrow — and he’s telling friends she saved him. Says an insider: “She’s an enormous support to him.”…

WEDNESDAY 2/13 Happy Death Day 2U Hey, where did all the scares go? The follow-up to the surprise 2017 hit has stripped away all the fun slasher frights and replaced them with… a wacky exploration of the time-space continuum? After a prolonged windup, college student Tree (Jessica Rothe) is once again stuck in an altreality in which she’s repeatedly killed on her birthday. Now older, wiser and more exasperated, she learns about the genesis of the loop and tries to discover a way to close it — without getting stuck in the wrong dimension. What began as a clever Groundhog Day-meets-Scream-meets-Mean Girls mashup is now a convoluted sci-fi also-ran. Only the top-notch Rothe and her wry line readings can keep this franchise alive. MR WEDNESDAY 2/13 Isn’t It Romantic In…

Nearly two years after Jennie Garth’s third husband, restaurateur Dave Abrams, filed for divorce from the 90210 alum, he’s asked the court to dismiss his petition. The request comes a week after the couple was spotted at a Los Angeles Lakers game together on Jan. 29. WORKING IT OUT Jennie, 46, and Dave, 37, tied the knot in 2015 at her California home. A day before Dave’s original divorce filing, Jennie opened up about their marriage struggles. “We as women forget about ourselves,” she told Us at the time. “We take care of everyone else, and pretty soon, you don’t know who you are anymore. I think in general it’s important that you focus on you and what makes you happy and what makes you you.” For now, what makes…

No one would blame Tori Spelling, 45, and hubby Dean McDermott, 52, for losing their cool on internet trolls who targeted the couple’s kids. But after haters and body shamers went after Liam, 11, Stella, 10, Hattie, 7, Finn, 6, and Beau, 22 months, on Jan. 17, Tori wants to turn the experience into something positive. “I’ve had people saying whatever they want about me my entire life,” she tells Us. “I learned to use it to empower others of what not to do,” she tells Us. Dean’s advice for the trolls? “Find someone you like and tell them how great you think they are.”…

1. I love mac and cheese. Anything with cheese on it. 2. I’m remembered most for my laugh. My dad says I came out of the womb with a loud guttural laugh. 3. I modeled for teen romance novels. Looking back on the covers, it’s embarrassing now. 4. Donny Osmond was my teenage crush. He followed me on Twitter and Instagram. It was a life highlight. 5. When I wrap presents, it looks like I had three bottles of wine. 6. My husband [Mossimo Giannulli, 55] and kids [Gianni, 27, Isabella, 20, and Olivia, 19] make fun of me because I love looking at homes online, and if a house is empty, I’ve been known to go over and snoop. 7. My favorite sport is golf. I’m terrible but still…
