Kicking off March 19, their Confidential live tour will hit 49 cities in nine weeks and give fans “a real sense of who the three of us are,” Murgatroyd, 31, tells Us, adding the show will be “about family and love.” In that spirit, her 11-month-old son, Shai (with husband Maks, 37), will be tagging along. “We’re thinking about having a crib built in the bus for him,” she says, “because when the bus is moving, you just fly off a bed!”…

MATT LAUER SHOCKING EXIT! Like a funeral. That’s how one insider describes the November 29 meeting for NBC staffers. As execs talked to the 200 employees gathered about their decision to terminate Matt Lauer’s 20 years of employment, for alleged “inappropriate sexual behavior,” they “treated it as if Matt had died,” says the source. “It was somber.” Deep in mourning: his Today coanchor Savannah Guthrie, tasked with announcing the news on air. “She is devastated,” notes an insider. “They were close.” HOT AIR But even Guthrie was in the dark about Lauer’s alleged actions. In a Variety report, three anonymous women accused Lauer, 59, of sexual harassment, claiming the dad of three (with wife Annette Roque) had once brought a female employee into his office and “dropped his pants,” exposing…

What to get the monarch who has everything? A whoopee cushion will do! Markle would be wise to avoid Princess Diana’s first-year misstep of buying pricey gifts. As the late royal’s former chef McGrady recalls, she once brought cashmere sweaters for Prince Andrew and Prince Edward, “a big faux pas.” Instead, the heirs exchange “novelty gifts,” says McGrady, noting William once brought his grandmother a pair of slippers emblazoned with her face. Markle will want to pick out something good for her future niece and nephew, though. Explains McGrady, “Kids get proper Christmas presents — real gifts and toys.”…

STAY HYDRATED In her L.A. home November 22, Tiffany Haddish wakes up to a full bladder. “Before I go to bed, I drink a bunch of water, so I have to go to the restroom,” says the comedian, 38. “I’m not a morning person, but I watched a YouTube video that said rich people wake up early!” 8:30 A.M.

Day or night, Scientology — and its 10,000 churches— is there for its devout followers. (The religion claims 4.4 million people sign up every year.) As a member, “the church becomes everything — your mother, your father, your everything,” actress Leah Remini explained in her 2015 memoir, Troublemaker. “You are dependent on the church.” But that support comes at a price. Though Remini, 47, found independence in 2013 after nearly 34 years, very few of the church’s famous members— including Tom Cruise, John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, Laura Prepon and Elisabeth Moss — have followed suit. “Celebrities think they are going up the road to spiritual freedom and that they are saving the world,” former member Steven Mango tells Us. “They don’t see what other people see.” That includes vast manipulation…

Brianna Brown has a knack for acting nutty. As Dynasty’s widow Claudia, she’s fooled the Carrington oil tycoons into believing she has neurological issues. It’s a skill the star of the CW reboot (Wednesdays, 9 p.m.) honed during her days on General Hospital. “My character was taking syringes and infecting people with HIV,” recalls the actress, 38. “I’ve learned how to take the craziest circumstances and have them make sense in the character’s warped brain.” Brown, wed to director Richie Keen, lets Us in. Q: Appeal of playing Claudia? An unapologetic villainess is the most fun! Viewers think she’s this sad woman who’s had terrible things happen to her. But she’s a manipulator.

TUNE IN! Unexpected airs on TLC Sundays at 10 P.M. LILLY BENNETT The Riverhead, New York, native and boyfriend James, both 17, are simply seeking respect. “The biggest challenge is not being taken seriously by doctors or other adults,” says the mom of daughter Aaliyah, 2 months. “People think just because I’m young I can’t make good decisions for my child, which is so far from the truth!” LEXUS SCHELLER Though the mom of 7-month-old Scarlett recently split from his dad, Shayden, 17, she has a partner in mother Kelsey, 31.
