TIME flies! Once the adorable munchkins of Jon & Kate Plus 8, the Gosselin sextuplets turned 20 May 10. Proud mom Kate Gosselin posted a b-day pic on Instagram to mark the occasion. “No more teenagers in this house! Happy 20th birthday, my forever babies!,” the 49-year-old captioned the shot of Alexis, Aaden, Leah and Joel with their candy chili-bedecked cake. “I love you! Who feels old? I know I do!” Conspicuously absent from the photo: the other two sextuplets, Hannah and Collin (their older sisters, twins Mady and Cara, are 23). The two moved in with their father, Jon Gosselin, following what they have called abuse from their mother after the couple’s bitter divorce. “Collin hasn’t spoken to his mom in years,” an insider tells Star. “And Hannah doesn’t…

“This is about family,” Angelina Jolie said of her new Broadway musical, The Outsiders while visiting Today May 13. The 48-year-old was there with her daughter Vivienne, 15, who worked on the production. But just days earlier, court documents in her nasty divorce from Brad Pitt, dad to her brood of six, revealed yet another toxic twist: A former security guard for the family alleged that the Oscar winner “was encouraging” the children not to spend time in the 60-year-old’s custody. (She denied the claim.) Now an insider tells Star the kids are saying enough is enough. “They’re sick and tired of seeing their mother and father at each other’s throats,” says the source. “It’s dominated their lives for the better part of a decade.” The source adds that the…

In a shocking new interview, Christina Applegate revealed that she suffered from an eating disorder throughout her time starring as Kelly Bundy on the hit sitcom Married… With Children, which debuted in 1987 and ran for 11 seasons. “It was f**king torture,” the 52-year-old told pal Jamie-Lynn Sigler on their MeSsy podcast, adding that at her worst she would eat “five almonds a day.” The Dead to Me star, a breast cancer survivor who revealed in 2021 that she is battling multiple sclerosis, explained that her body-image issues began years earlier when a neighbor boy called her fat. By age 15, she was on Weight Watchers. The 5-foot-5 actress noted that, when it came to weight and dieting, her own mother was competitive. “If I got down to 110 [pounds]……

Is the fairy tale ending for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez? The reunited lovers have been spending large chunks of time apart, with Jennifer even spotted house hunting solo in Bel Air, Calif. An insider reveals that the high-profile duo has hit yet another rough patch. “Look, even when things are quote-unquote ‘good’ between Ben and Jennifer, their gigantic egos and sharp opinions mean there’s going to be some fighting and arguing.” Career pressure has been high for both Ben, 51, and Jennifer, 54, as the former is in grind mode with a slew of projects from his and Matt Damon’s production company, while J.Lo reels from a flopped album and several canceled tour dates. The pressure has spilled over into their two-year marriage, as the A-listers scrapped plans to…

This time it’s for real. After 18 years of marriage and two divorce filings — each subsequently withdrawn — Scott Stapp and wife Jaclyn are officially done. A source reveals that throughout years of challenges — including the Creed frontman’s mental health and addiction issues, and his psychotic break in 2014 — “they tried so hard to stay together.” The pair initially vowed to work on the relationship for the sake of their kids, Milan, 17, Daniel, 13, and Anthony, 6. “Scott had a rotten childhood and this was the first family he ever knew,” says the source. “But even the best intentions aren’t enough sometimes.” The source adds the rocker, 50, and fashion model, 43, are amicable. “Scott will always be grateful to Jaclyn for sticking by him during…

On May 12, Finley Lockwood — one of Lisa Marie’s twins with her fourth husband, Michael Lockwood — took to her Instagram Story to celebrate and mourn the Presley scion. “Happy Mother’s Day to the best mom ever,” she captioned a throwback photo of herself and sister Harper dressed up in princess costumes alongside Lisa Marie. “Even though we can’t celebrate with you I’m still so grateful for all our memories.” The 15-year-olds, who live with their father, a musician, “are very sensible, smart girls who mostly keep out of the spotlight,” says a source. “They’re in high school and focused on their studies.” Losing their mother at such a young age has been difficult, but Riley and Priscilla dote on them. “They are getting lots of attention from the…

John Leguizamo Asked about his movie regrets, the 63-year-old had a few. “Oh yeah, The Devil Wears Prada, the Stanley Tucci part,” he told Business Insider about turning down the role as Anne Hathaway’s fashion-mag mentor in the 2006 movie. “Also Happy Feet, the Robin Williams part and Mr. & Mrs. Smith, the Vince Vaughn part. I had my reasons. I mean, they’re stupid, but I had my reasons.” Tom Selleck In a recent conversation with his Blue Bloods costar Bridget Moynahan at NYC’s 92nd Street Y, the 79-year-old revealed that he was offered the role of Indiana Jones in 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark but had to turn it down because he’d already signed on for TV’s Magnum P.I. “People told me not to go see it when…

Ruling the School Abuja, Nigeria, May 10 Prince Harry and Meghan Markle kicked off their three-day tour of Nigeria with a visit to the Lightway Academy, where they met with students to discuss the importance of mental health awareness. “Too many people don’t want to talk about it because it’s invisible. It’s something in our mind that we can’t see. It’s not like a broken leg, it’s not like a broken wrist,” said the Duke of Sussex, 39. “[But] you have to look after yourself to be able to look after other people. And other people have to be able to look after themselves, to look after you. That’s the way it works. And there is no shame to be able to acknowledge that today is a bad day, OK?”…

Newly minted “bad girl” JoJo Siwa isn’t just leaving her squeaky-clean image behind. The Dance Moms alum, worth a reported $20 million, is taking control of her career. Back when she was a kid phenom, the 20-year-old recently shared, she felt exploited by the adults around her. “I had shady deals and yes, I got f**ked over as a kid — but not in a sexual way, it was in a business way,” the “Karma” singer explained on a recent podcast. Though she didn’t go into detail, an insider tells Star the J Team star was targeted by people who took advantage of her youth. “She made some bad deals that didn’t do anything for her career,” says the insider, “but probably lined other people’s pockets.” The former Nickelodeon star…

Ever the epitome of the British “stiff upper lip,” King Charles III has been uncomplaining as he returns to public duties amid his cancer treatment. So it was a rare human moment when the 75-year-old shared some of the debilitating side effects of his chemotherapy on a May 13 visit to the Army Flying Museum in Hampshire, England. When a British Army vet told the monarch that he lost his sense of taste while undergoing cancer treatment last year, Charles let slip that the same thing had happened to him. As Star has previously reported, sources say the king is battling pancreatic cancer with just a few years to live. Yet despite his grim diagnosis, he feels forced to carry on for the sake of the monarchy — especially in…

Beginning of the end? Just months after Dorit Kemsley declared that she and hubby Paul “PK” Kemsley were doing “better than ever,” the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars have separated. As they neared nine years of marriage, their challenges — including Dorit’s PTSD from a 2021 home invasion and PK’s constant traveling — played out on the 13th season of RHOBH.“They’ve been having serious problems. Dorit is often left home with the kids [Jagger, 10, and Phoenix, 8] while PK’s traveling, and it’s like they were living separate lives,” a source confirms. “PK’s drinking was another issue; he stopped but there’s always the fear he’ll start up again.” While Dorit, 47, and PK, 56, are saying they need to spend time apart to consider how they feel about each…

RILEY KEOUGH will never forget how lovely her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, looked on their final evening together. “We had dinner,” the Daisy Jones & the Six actress told Vanity Fair last year. “That was the last time I saw her. I remember thinking about how beautiful she looked, and that was my strongest memory of the dinner.” Now, more than a year after Lisa Marie’s death from a bowel obstruction, Riley is helping to share her story. The 35-year-old worked to complete a memoir, out this fall, that publisher Random House calls “raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind,” and for which the music scion had recorded “countless hours of breathtakingly vulnerable tape.” Star has seen an unpublished manuscript that lays bare the secrets most thought Elvis Presley’s only daughter had taken to…

She wasn’t the target of the raucous roast, but Kim Kardashian got some rough treatment as comics and celebs gathered to rib football GOAT Tom Brady for Netflix’s May 5 special. First, the 43-year-old was booed by the crowd at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, Calif., when she stood to deliver her one-liners about the NFL star, 46 — including addressing their rumored romance. Then the reality star became the butt of the jokes, including one about being “terrified” to leave her four kids home with their dad, Kanye West. Though she appeared stoic during the three-hour live event, fellow presenter Nikki Glaser later revealed that the reality star had DM’d her: “I don’t know how you do this — it’s abuse, lol.” The next day, Kim was again under…

Want to date Ryan Seacrest? You’d better have a spotless record! Sources tell Star that the 49-year-old is back on the market after his April split from Aubrey Paige, but the American Idol host is being super picky about who he’ll date next. “She must be young, pretty and ambitious to a point,” says an insider. More important, she must not have any blots on her résumé. “Ryan’s insisting on background checks,” spills the insider. “He’s not proud about it, but he feels they’re necessary to protect himself.” With a net worth north of $450 million, Ryan has some definite red flags. “Anything alarming in a person’s past, like lying about a job or a criminal conviction or lawsuit would definitely be a deal-breaker,” explains the insider. “Just because someone…

Professional hubby reporting for duty! Miranda Lambert’s husband of five years, Brendan McLoughlin, is “living the good life,” per an insider. The former NYPD officer, who retired a year after marrying the country star, “is a local celeb,” says the insider, adding that the 32-year-old relishes his VIP status at Miranda’s Nashville-based bar, Casa Rosa. “He has the best seat and can order anything and it’ll be comped. He loves being Mr. Lambert.” The New York native splits time between his hometown (where he has a son from a previous relationship) and his 40-year-old wife’s 400-acre Tennessee farm. “He has a home gym and a gourmet kitchen to whip up fabulous meals,” says the insider. “He doesn’t have a regular job, nor does he need one.

SET to the Heart tune “All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You,” Britney Spears’ May 13 Insta video showed the singer modeling a slinky red gown in her Thousand Oaks, Calif., home. It was a typical clip for the 42-year-old, who loves to stay in touch with her 42.2 million followers by sharing such posts — until a few seconds in, when Britney caressed her gently rounded stomach, leading some to believe she’s expecting. Worse, that the dad is her new handyman turned boyfriend, Paul Soliz, a convicted felon and alleged “deadbeat dad” of nine. “There’s a lot of worry that Britney may have gone ahead and gotten pregnant, with Paul being the prime candidate if that has happened,” a source tells Star. “That’s just a nightmare scenario…
