For Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell, life is, well, neat. “We’re always sweeping, vacuuming and wiping the table down,” says Shepard, who has daughters Lincoln, 3, and Delta, 19 months, with the 36-year-old actress. “Having kids means you’re in a constant state of making a mess or cleaning up a mess.” His specialty is in the kitchen. Adds the actor, 41, “I’m a wash-the-dishes type of guy.” LEARN EVENMORE ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE STAR SWEETIES ATUSMAGAZINE.COM…

GAVIN ROSSDALE When his 13-year marriage to Stefani ended in August 2015, Rossdale began assessing his options. “Gavin is casually dating,” says a source close to the guitarist. “But seeing Gwen move on has been hard for him.” The 50-year-old — who cheated on Stefani with nanny Mindy Mann — “knows he screwed up,” reveals the insider. As he and Stefani continue to coparent sons Zuma, Apollo and Kingston (above, from left), Rossdale, adds the insider, “thinks Blake is a good influence on his kids.” MIRANDA LAMBERT Not quite over it? The country star, 32, sobbed through a July 29 performance of her song “Over You” (cowritten with Shelton), explaining to the crowd of more than 20,000: “I told you I was a mess.” Though a Lambert source says Shelton’s…

When Emma Heming Willis is in the kitchen, her children are too. “I love getting the kids involved — it’s such a great life skill,” says the mom of Mabel, 4, and Evelyn, 2, with husband Bruce Willis, 61 (left, in May). “They do things like crack an egg and take the shell to the trash.” While Dad handles breakfast, the lifestyle blogger, 38, cooks nearly every night at their Westchester County, New York, home, striving for “variety and nutrition,” she says, because her crew “would eat pasta every day if they could!” Build Your Own Pizza SERVES 2 Once a week, Heming Willis’ girls choose toppings for “moist, delicious” dough made with almond flour, which Mom raves is “high in protein and low in carbohydrates and sugar.” INGREDIENTS 2…

For Jason Biggs, wife of eight years Jenny Mollen is rarely just a call away. “She doesn’t like to answer her phone. Ever,” Biggs, 38, says. “It’s disconcerting.” Quips Mollen, 37, “He’s superneedy!” But no one had to leave a message while they filmed Amateur Night (out August 5), in which Biggs’ character chauffeurs prostitutes to gigs in order to provide for his pregnant wife (Mollen). The parents of son Sid, 2, share more with Us. Q: How is this marriage different from your own? JM I’d never let himembark on a caper without me. I’d be like, “Hold on, motherf--ker. I’m Uber-ing to you.” JB I wouldn’t want to be in a caper without you. JM Because I would help you escape the cops! Q: Is there a job…

Her real love didn’t last. On July 26, Mary J. Blige filed for divorce fromMartin “Kendu” Isaacs, 48, citing irreconcilable differences. The “Be Without You” singer, 45, who requested Isaacs not receive spousal support, “is saddened,” her rep told Us in a statement. “Sometimes things don’t work.” During her 12-year marriage, the R&B queen often gushed about her manager husband, telling Us in 2010: “He always finds a way to make me feel special.” But privately, the couple “had huge fights,” says a Blige friend. “He was controlling.” Financial woes — the IRS slapped her with a $3.4 million tax lien in 2013 — and reports of Isaacs’ alleged infidelity also took a toll. In 2011, recalls a Blige insider, she broke down backstage during a fight with Isaacs because…

Total eclipse of the heart! Typically tight-lipped about her romantic life, Kristen Stewart confirms in Elle UK that she’s dating visual-effects producer Alicia Cargile. “I’m just really in love with my girlfriend,” the Café Society star, 26, gushes in the September issue. “I was like, Finally, I can feel again.” The L.A.-born actress, who split from Robert Pattinson in 2013 and dated singer SoKo last spring, also wants to show she’s not “ashamed” of being with a woman: “To hide this provides the implication that I’m not down with it.” A Stewart insider tells Us the announcement was unplanned. “The interview just went in that direction,” the source says. “Kristen realizes she has the real deal with Alicia.”…

Counting on forever: One month after announcing their courtship, pastor Jeremy Vuolo, 28, and 22-year-old Jinger Duggar — the sixth eldest of Jim Bob and Michelle’s 19 kids — are engaged. “We are so excited to take this next step in spending our lives together,” the Arkansas-based pair told Us in a statement. Because the Baptists set physical boundaries in their romance, that next step entails a kiss — but only after they say “I do.” Explained Vuolo, “We really want to honor the Lord and be very intentional about how we move forward.”…

Whatever Nev Schulman’s pregnant fiancée wants, she gets. “I love spoiling her,” the creator of MTV’s Catfish (returns August 10, 10 p.m.) tells Us of copywriter Laura Perlongo, 30. “I’ll take any chance to rub her feet! I secretly love being bossed around.” He’ll have a new boss when their daughter arrives in October. Gushes the 31-year-old, “We’re so excited. When we see parents with their kids, we’ll give each other a little squeeze.”…

Hoya, there! In May, actress and U.N. Special Envoy Angelina Jolie Pitt, 41, signed on to be a visiting professor at the London School of Economics for the fall.

JakeOwen American Love Jake Owen doesn’t sound too torn up over his divorce. On his first album since parting ways with wife Lacey a year ago, the Florida-bred heartthrob is solely focused on cracking open Bud Lights, cruising around in his VW van and scoring with random women. It’s safe and predictable bro-country, from the chipper title track to the sunny “American Country Love Song.” What a shame there aren’t more dig-deep moments like the lone wrenching piano ballad, “When You Love Someone,” in which he pledges allegiance to a former flame. A little more heartache wouldn’t hurt.…

Psychic Tyler Henry believes there’s “a time and a place” to connect with lost loved ones. “I won’t stop you as you’re shopping at the grocery store and connect you to your dead grandma,” jokes the star of E!’s Hollywood Medium With Tyler Henry (returns August 10, 8 P.M.). “I’m not the Long Island Medium!” GUESS WHO? To avoid bias, Henry receives no advance info — and still has trouble recognizing the famous faces he meets. “I grew up in a small town [Hanford, California] and wasn’t celebrity-oriented,” explains the single 20-year-old. Season 2 guests include Larry Birkhead (“I thought he was Keith Urban!”), Kris Jenner (joined by Khloé Kardashian) and Kendra Wilkinson. KEY EPISODE Henry hints Tori Spelling’s message may not be from beloved dad Aaron. “Who you expect…

MARIAH VS KARDASHIANS So Mariah Carey does know who Kim Kardashian is. Two years after Nick Cannon said his then-wife, 46, hadn’t even heard of his onetime lover, Carey shaded the reality star, 35, in a Complex profile. During a sit-down at Nobu Malibu, the writer asked what fans could expect from Carey’s E! docuseries, Mariah’s World. Glancing meaningfully at the Kardashian clan, who was filming nearby, Carey demurred: “Some of us talk about other people and what they do and la la la. But I’m not that person.” JUDGE MILIAN RULES “They all win — they have us talking!” SONNI VS JEREMY Jeremy Renner balked when ex Sonni Pacheco filed papers July 19 saying he owed $48,367 in child support and refused to pay $1,600 a month for 3-year-old…

You could throw things and then he would run to you.” On getting two dogs to prepare for the birth of son Eric, now 2, SIMON COWELL “I asked him, ‘You still live in Minnesota, don’t you?’ . . . He just turns and he looks me right in the eye and he goes, ‘I live inside my own heart, Matt Damon.’” Recalling a conversation with Prince, MATT DAMON “I went on Etsy and I was like, ‘$90? . . . Buy now!’” On purchasing her and Ashton Kutcher’s wedding rings via the online marketplace, MILA KUNIS “I said, ‘God, I…

J oel Kinnaman could use some courage. “I’d love to not be afraid of anyone,” says the star of Suicide Squad. “I’m just a scaredy-cat.” His character, Rick Flag — who leads criminals on a mission to take down his witch girlfriend — is just the opposite. Adds Kinnaman, “He’s the toughest. You don’t mess with him.” The Swedish actor, 36, wed to tattoo artist Cleo Wattenstrom, shows Us his powers. Q: As a kid, did you love the Squad comic books? I had actually never heard of them before the film! I grew up in Sweden, so we didn’t have all these fancy cartoons. Donald Duck and the Phantom were the only ones we got. I fantasized about being a knight or fighting dragons. Q: Did anyone stay in…

FRIDAY 8/12 The Get Down The dawn of hip-hop as dramatized by razzle-dazzle Aussie Baz Luhrmann sounds dicey. Yet the elegant Moulin Rouge director imbues the mean streets of 1977 NYC with heart — lots of it. In Down’s vibrant premiere, which pays homage to Saturday Night Fever and other flicks of the era, teen Ezekiel (Justice Smith) finds his poetry and rhyming skills could steer him out of his poverty-ravaged South Bronx neighborhood. Meanwhile, his crush, Mylene (Herizen Guardiola), vows to be “the next Donna Summer!” In this world, thugs, abusive dads and discotheque lotharios lurk, often overdramatically. Throughout, Down still manages to feel uplifting. (Partial credit goes to “Bad Girls,” “Rubberband Man” and the soundtrack’s other vintage tunes.) Ezekiel’s wonderfully oddball buddies are all played with relish — especially…
