Wait, Bella Thorne was secretly 'married' to rapper Mod Sun?

Bella Thorne and ex Mod Sun secretly "married" earlier this year, he revealed, but added that they never made their marriage legal.

His claim came after TooFab.com asked him to comment on Bella's other ex Tana Mongeau getting engaged to YouTube star Jake Paul.

"That's what young crazy people do, bro," Mod, 32, said. "I got engaged, married and divorced in 15 months in Hollywood. That's what we do out here in these streets. We out here putting rings on it, that's what our generation does."

The rapper later confirmed that he was referring to Bella, saying they had a wedding ceremony and exchanged vows. But, they never filed the paperwork to make their union legal in the eyes of the law. So, technically, no divorce was needed when they split.

Fans wondered if the two had gotten hitched when Mod posted a video from what appeared to be a wedding ceremony on Valentine's Day.

"I know how lucky I am. I know I met u 1000 years ago," he wrote at the time. "I won't lose u this time. I promise to rub ur toes every night, that's our deal. I love u @bellathorne."

A few months later, he edited the caption, writing, "We split but this was still a beautiful moment in my life."

Bella and Mod dated for over a year.

"I will always love you," Bella, 21, wrote in April when they split. "All good things must come to an end."

Why Rosario Dawson wasn't at beau Cory Booker's debate…

While Sen. Cory Booker stood on stage making his case to be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States on Wednesday night, his girlfriend Rosario Dawson was nowhere to be found.

Rest assured, everything is fine between the couple.

The New York Post said the actress was on a TV set in New Mexico for USA Network's new series "Briarpatch," which she's been cast in.

A pal says Rosario was watching her beau on TV.

The New Jersey Senator and the actress began dating in the winter, and their romance has moved fast.

In mid-March, Rosario confirmed her then-rumored romance with the politician, telling a TMZ camera that she's "grateful to be with someone that I respect and love and admire so much, who is so brilliant and kind and caring and loving."

They haven't been shy about discussing a future together either.

"She and I are not trying to put this through a political lens. We're just two people in love trying to build a great relationship every single day," he told Good Day New York in April. "Because I'll tell you what — in my best case scenario, I get elected to president, I serve two terms. That's just 10 years . . . nine years of my life. What I'm trying to create with Rosario is something that'll last forever."

The last unmarried man to helm the Oval Office was Grover Cleveland.

Recently, though, Cory appeared on RuPaul's talk show and hinted that a proposal could be in the works.

"Well, the swearing-in isn't until the 21st of January 2021," he said with his lady love sitting in the audience. "You never know what might happen between then and now."

Tristan Thompson sends birthday love to ex Khloe Kardashian

Despite their messy split, Tristan Thompson publicly gushed about his ex Khloe Kardashian on Instagram to celebrate her 35th birthday.

On Thursday, the NBA star shared an image of Khloe and their 14-month-old daughter True, presumably taken during a happy time during the couple's rocky's romance.

"Happy birthday @khloekardashian You are the most beautiful human I have ever met inside and out," he captioned the image. "Thank you for being an amazing mommy to our princess True. She is blessed to have someone like you to look up to. I wish you nothing but more success and sending you positive blessing your way. Enjoy your day Koko."

According to Page Six, many followers joked that Tristan's Instagram must have been hacked, considering how badly the romance ended.

The couple split in February after a report stated that Tristan and Kylie Jenner's bff Jordyn Woods "were all over each other" at a house party in Los Angeles. Jordyn later sat down with Jada Pinkett Smith and denied making out or getting friendly with Tristan.

There was "never anything intimate… It was an innocent time," she said, but admitted Tristan kissed her on the lips. There was "no passion" during the kiss, she contested.

After the interview, Khloe sounded off. "Why are you lying @jordynwoods ??," Khloe tweeted. "If you're going to try and save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story. BTW, You ARE the reason my family broke up!"

After the dust settled, Khloe tweeted that Tristan is to blame, not Jordyn.

The incident wasn't the first time the Cleveland Cavaliers star allegedly cheated on Khloe either. In 2018, while the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star was pregnant, video showed him kissing other women.

You'll recall that Tristan welcomed a son with his ex girlfriend in December 2016 while he was dating Khloe, as well. Recently the mother of his son alleged that Tristan cheated on her with Khloe.

Holly Madison is reportedly dating reality TV star: Find out who

Holly Madison's love life is getting spiritual.

According to TMZ, the former "Girls Next Door" star is dating "Ghost Adventures" star Zak Bagans.

SplashNews.com

The report states that Holly and Zak connected in May when she visited Zak's Haunted Museum in Las Vegas. Soon, things became romantic and the two started dating. The duo had met before, but they were both in relationships during that initial meeting.

The alleged couple has been keeping their romance off the radar so far, but fans began noticing that their Instagram stories have been very similar over the past few weeks, leading many to question if something was happening between them. They've also been "liking" many of each other's photos on social media.

Holly famously dated Playboy founder Hugh Hefner for years before they split. She later said she was suicidal while dating Hugh. In 2013, she married music festival producer Pasquale Rotella at Disneyland, and the two share two children, Rainbow Aurora, 6, and Forest, 2. Last September, the couple split and Pasquale filed for divorce.

"It is with love in our hearts and a deep respect for one another that Holly and I have amicably made the decision to separate," he captioned a family photo taken at Disneyland. "First and foremost, we are forever partners and parents to two beautiful children, and are fully committed to raising them in an environment filled with love and positivity."

Prior to the filing, there had been rumors of a possible split between Holly and Pasquale.

Grieving Duane 'Dog' Chapman must decide how to end unfinished new reality show after wife Beth's death

When Beth Chapman's health look a downturn earlier this month, she was still filming a new reality show with husband Duane "Dog" Chapman.

Now, it's up to Dog to decide how their upcoming WGN America show, "Dog's Most Wanted," will end since taping wasn't completed — and how they'll address Beth's June 26 death at 51 following her cancer battle.

Darryl Oumi/Getty Images

The show had been filming for several months but cameras were not there when Beth had a choking emergency that sent her to a Honolulu hospital — and required her to be placed in a medically induced coma — on June 22, production sources told TMZ.

In the wake of Beth's hospitalization and death, production has stopped. But since Beth was still slated to shoot the end of the season — the show chronicles both her throat and lung cancer fight as well as Dog's bounty-hunting work — it's unclear what will now happen, especially with the former "Dog the Bounty Hunter" star and his family grieving.

A E Tv Network/Kobal/Shutterstock

TMZ writes that "it's possible producers will use the material they have in the can to put together an ending — or shooting could resume after Dog and his family have time to cope with their matriarch's passing."

Citing production sources, TMZ adds, "it will ultimately be Dog's decision on whether there's enough raw footage to end the series, and also tell Beth's story."

WGN America posted a tribute video honoring Beth hours after she passed away, asking fans to "remember" Beth, whom the network called "a fighter until the end." In another tweet, the network called her "an exceptional woman."

https://twitter.com/wgnamerica/status/1143963715814883328

Dog took to Twitter early on June 26 to let fans know that Beth was gone. "It's 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain. Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven," he wrote. "We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side."

Ivana Trump splits with her model ex-husband

Ivana Trump and Rossano Rubicondi, her Italian ex-husband, have split… again.

"I am once again a single woman," she told Page Six. "I have the freedom to do what I want, with whomever I want to, and I can afford my lifestyle."

Massimo Insabato/Shutterstock

President Trump's ex-wife and Rossano dated for six years before marrying in 2008 at a lavish ceremony. They split and divorced a year later, but eventually reconciled.

"The relationship just ran its course," Ivana said. "Rossano spends a lot of time in Italy and I spend a lot of time in New York, Miami and St-Tropez, and he has to work."

She added, "The long-distance relationship really doesn't work. We had a good time and are friends. The split was amicable."

Ivana, 70, and President Trump share three children, Donald Jr., Eric and Ivanka. The Italian model was Ivana's fourth husband. Now, though, she's done being a bride.

"I don't want to get married again," she said. "I'm done. You get married because you want a family. I have three kids and grandkids. I just want to be free and go where I want to go with whoever I want. I want to be a free woman.

"I don't want to date. I like to have companions, and I have plenty of men who take me for lunches and dinners and balls or charity events," she continued. "I don't want to be attached."

If you think Ivana is mourning the split, you'd be wrong. She's actually headed to St-Tropez for the summer.

"I am going to have a fabulous summer," she said.

Willi Schneider/Shutterstock

Page Six asked Rossano about the split, to which he replied, "Think whatever you want to think…Ivana is always family for me."

He added that Ivana has a "good heart … we are super close. I have good respect for her."

Channing Tatum 'Ditching' Friends And Career For Jessie J?

Channing Tatum is not "ditching" his friends and career for girlfriend Jessie J, despite a bogus report. Gossip Cop can correct the story. It's simply not accurate.

Dean / SplashNews.com

According to the National Enquirer, the actor is so focused on his relationship with the British pop star that he's ignoring every other aspect of his life. A supposed source tells the magazine, "They'll spend the whole day in bed together, oblivious that there's a world out there. He's not returning calls from his pals – and even work colleagues are upset."

The outlet goes on to say that Tatum isn't worried about missing out on career opportunities because he's financially set already. "He figures he may as well enjoy his time with his hot new squeeze," adds the alleged insider. "All he wants to do is be with Jessie, and everybody's worried about him."

The unreliable tabloid doesn't bother to mention that Tatum is currently in Boston shooting the upcoming action movie Free Guy. In fact, the actor was spotted bowling with a friend during a break from filming. It would appear that Tatum isn't forgoing his career or shunning his pals, despite the outlet's baseless claim otherwise.

The magazine also doesn't seem to realize that Tatum has his own production company, Free Association, which has a number of projects in development. In addition to his acting work, the Magic Mike star is producing several upcoming films and TV shows. Naturally, Tatum is also dedicated to spending time with his 6-year-old daughter, who he shares with ex Jenna Dewan. The idea that he's disregarding everything in his life except for his romance with Jessie J is ridiculous.

Still, Gossip Cop checked in with a mutual pal of ours and Tatum, who wasn't able to speak on the record, but confirms there's no truth to the magazine's article. It's worth noting, we busted the Enquirer's sister publication, Star, for falsely claiming in January that Tatum Jessie J had split because she was too much of a "diva" for him. This latest article is very contradictory, but similarly untrue.

Back in December, Gossip Cop called out the Enquirer's other sister publication, OK!, for wrongly reporting that Tatum would be proposing to Jessie J over the holidays. That obviously didn't happen. The gossip media simply has no insight into the couple's relationship, so it comes up with fictional storylines instead. This latest one about Tatum "ditching" his friends and career is more nonsense.

Morgan Freeman Quitting Hollywood?

Morgan Freeman is not quitting Hollywood, despite a false tabloid report. Gossip Cop can debunk the bogus story. We're told it's completely inaccurate.

MediaPunch/Shutterstock

According to the National Enquirer, the legendary actor plans to exit the limelight due to so-called "health woes" and a "desire to escape the scrutiny" that comes with being famous. An alleged insider tells the magazine, "Morgan says it's harder and harder to drag himself onto another film set. He's said the thrill is gone – but the pain and aggravation is not."

The anonymous tipster goes on to say that Freeman is in "constant pain" as the result of a 2008 car accident, adding, "He's in rough shape, but Morgan kept on getting great film offers and he kept on taking them." The supposed source further contends that Freeman's Bucket List co-star Jack Nicholson, who hasn't acted in nearly a decade, has been convincing him to go into retirement.

"Jack's been in retirement for a few years now and he tells Morgan he owes it to himself to just enjoy life without feeling he has to work," adds the questionable insider. The outlet maintains that Freeman's upcoming movie The Comeback Trail will be his final film before he "calls it quits" for good.

The tabloid's report is flat-out wrong. When rumors of Freeman retiring first emerged back in 2014, the actor made it very clear, "I have no intention of retiring now or any time in the next several decades." The actor doubled down on that stance in 2017. When Freeman was asked at press conference if he has any thoughts of retirement, he responded, "That's not even a question." In a subsequent interview, Freeman explained, "I can afford to retire, but now I do it for the fun."

Meanwhile, Freeman opened up about his health on the "Today" show in 2017 shortly after his 80th birthday. The actor noted he still has a ton of energy, which he credits to constantly "keeping busy." Simply put, Freeman doesn't intend to stop working anytime soon, he's not suffering serious health issues and acting hasn't become an "aggravation."

Still, Gossip Cop checked in with the actor's spokesperson, who tells us on the record that the Enquirer's story is completely untrue. Despite what the magazine's unidentified "source" claims, Freeman's own rep confirms he plans to continue acting for a long time to come.

It's worth noting, the outlet has a habit of pushing this phony retirement narrative. Gossip Cop called out the magazine last year for wrongly reporting that Ben Affleck was quitting Hollywood. Shortly before that, the publication falsely claimed Renee Zellweger was leaving the movie business. Neither of those stories panned out and this latest one involving Freeman is similarly baseless.

Jennifer Aniston Secretly Dating 'Murder Mystery' Co-Star Dany Boon?

Jennifer Aniston is not secretly dating French comedian Dany Boon, one of her co-stars in the new Netflix movie Murder Mystery, despite a bogus report. Gossip Cop can debunk the story. We're told there's no truth to the romance rumors.

Broadimage/Shutterstock

According to Woman's Day, the "Friends" star immediately hit it off with her co-star while shooting their Netflix comedy last summer. "There was an instant spark between them," a supposed source tells the magazine, "but her split from Justin [Theroux] was still very fresh and she didn't feel ready for another relationship." The alleged insider further contends that the two struck up a close friendship on set but eventually developed a romance after shooting wrapped.

"He never made her feel pressured for something more and because of that, things progressed organically," adds the anonymous tipster. "She realized she had feelings for him when he found out some interesting history on her Greek ancestry after she'd mentioned how much she wanted to explore her family history. That really touched her."

The unidentified "source" further contends Aniston is telling friends that her relationship with Boon is getting serious, and even told Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow to "stop trying to set her up with eligible bachelors because she's not interested in meeting anyone else." The questionable insider concludes, "She's been through the mill over the past couple of years, so everyone's hoping Dany could be the man to prove there is such a thing as happily ever after."

The magazine's story is based on claims from an untraceable and possibly nonexistent "source," but Gossip Cop checked in with Aniston's spokesperson, who tells us on the record it's untrue. Despite what the outlet's so-called "insider" says, a rep qualified to speak on the actress's behalf tells us she's not secretly dating her Murder Mystery co-star.

Just last month, Aniston herself told Harper's Bazaar she has "zero time" for dating and has been focused on her career. "Dating has not been one of my first priorities," the actress explained. "I feel like whatever [romance] looks like, it will present itself, and it's not about seeking it out." People magazine similarly reported last week that Aniston's schedule "doesn't allow too much time for dating," and she's "genuinely happy and fulfilled by her work right now."

It should also be mentioned, Gossip Cop called out Woman's Day last year for falsely claiming Aniston was dating Murder Mystery co-star David Walliams. It would appear the tabloid has a habit of arbitrarily linking the actress to random cast members from her Netflix comedy.

Nicole Kidman Posing For Playboy?

Nicole Kidman is not posing for Playboy, despite a false report claiming the actress is planning a sexy photo shoot to remind Keith Urban he's "lucky" to have her. Gossip Cop can debunk the bogus story. We're told there's no truth to it.

Monica Schipper/FilmMagic

According to New Idea, the actress recently caught her husband looking at fellow country singer Maren Morris' new Playboy shoot, and has "decided to get her revenge by posing for her own nude photos." An alleged insider tells the magazine, "Nicole has decided enough is enough. But instead of getting mad – she's going to get even!" The supposed source goes on to say that Kidman "is determined to show him that she is a strong, independent, beautiful woman who won't be messed around by anyone."

The anonymous tipster further contends that Kidman was "horrified" when she supposedly walked in on her husband looking at Morris' pictures on his computer, adding that she's jealous of the 29-year-old country singer, who's toured with Urban in the past. "There were whispers that the pair of them were getting along famously while they were on the road together," adds the questionable source.

The unidentified insider continues, "That's why Nic has never trusted Keith near Maren and told him to stay away from her. But they have continued to work together from time to time, and even though Maren is now married, Nic still hates Keith spending time with her." The suspicious tipster adds, "To see him ogling Maren's sexy Playboy pictures was a stab in the back, as far as Nic was concerned."

None of this is remotely true. Gossip Cop checked in with Kidman's own spokesperson, who tells us on the record that she's not posing for Playboy. The actress's rep further assures us she never caught her husband looking at Morris' spread in the men's magazine, nor is she jealous of Urban's former touring partner. Every aspect of the outlet's article is fabricated.

Of course, New Idea has already proven to know very little about the famous spouses. Gossip Cop called out the publication last November for wrongly reporting that Kidman and Urban were having a baby boy through either adoption or surrogacy. As time has proven, the parents of two young girls haven't welcomed another child.

Gossip Cop also busted the tabloid last year for falsely claiming Kidman and Urban were getting a "$413 million divorce." The happy spouses, who will celebrate their 13th wedding anniversary on Wednesday, are still going strong. This latest article involving Kidman's nonexistent Playboy shoot is more nonsense.

Taylor Swift Planning Fourth Of July Wedding At Her Rhode Island Mansion?

Taylor Swift is not planning a Fourth of July wedding to boyfriend Joe Alwyn at her Rhode Island mansion, despite a false report. Gossip Cop can debunk the bogus story. The singer simply isn't headed down the aisle this summer.

Kristina Bumphrey/Starpix/REX/Shutterstock

"Taylor's Secret Seaside Wedding!" reads a headline in the latest issue of the National Enquirer. A supposed source is quoted as saying, "Taylor is keen to make things official with Joe and the word is they'll do so at her beloved beach getaway in Rhode Island." The supposed source goes on to say that the singer often invites her friends to celebrate the Fourth of July at her estate, "but a lot of people are convinced she's using this as a cover for a secret wedding."

"It's widely assumed they've been unofficially engaged for some time," adds the suspicious tipster. "A lot of people have actually been wondering what's taken them so long." From there, the seemingly phony source says Swift's so-called "wedding" will be an "intimate" affair with a few dozen guests, including Selena Gomez and Karlie Kloss, as well as Alwyn's friends and family from England.

Gossip Cop checked in with a source close to the situation, who tells us Swift and Alwyn simply won't be tying the knot at her Rhode Island home next week. It remains to be seen if the singer will even throw a Fourth of July bash this year, but however she chooses to celebrate the holiday, it certainly won't be with a secret wedding.

It's worth noting, Gossip Cop busted the Enquirer in April 2018 for wrongly reporting that Swift and Alwyn were shopping for an engagement ring. It's now more than a year later and the couple still isn't engaged. Last June, Gossip Cop called out the tabloid's sister publication, Life & Style, for wrongly reporting that Swift and Alwyn would be getting married that August at her house in Nashville. August came and went without a wedding.

In October 2018, that same outlet ignored its premise about a summer wedding and published another article about Swift and Alwyn being secretly engaged. That made-up story failed to explain why the couple never walked down the aisle in August as was previously alleged. The singer and the actor won't hold a wedding on July 4, 2019 either, but Gossip Cop doubts the Enquirer will acknowledge it got the story wrong. Instead, there will likely be more fiction printed about the couple's relationship going forward.

Beth Chapman's daughter tearfully tweets: 'You've got a halo now'

Beth Chapman's daughter is publicly mourning the loss of her mother on social media, saying, "I'd never thought I'd lose my mom at 20."

BJJ / BACKGRID

Bonnie Jo Chapman's heartbreaking tweets started after her dad, Duane "Dog" Chapman, announced Beth's death on Twitter on Wednesday morning.

https://twitter.com/Bonniejoc/status/1143910702098219009

"Love you forever mom. You've got a halo now," she wrote in response to Dog's message.

After an hour, Bonnie added, "I'll never forget you, mama. You were such a strong woman, and you taught me to always be strong. You were strong for everyone, and you taught me it's okay to let go."

https://twitter.com/Bonniejoc/status/1143925408611491840

Beth passed away on Wednesday morning following a battle with cancer. Over the weekend, following a choking incident brought on by the cancer, the "Dog The Bounty Hunter" star was placed in a medically-induced coma. Soon, there was speculation that the end was near.

"It's 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain. Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven," Duane tweeted on June 26. "We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side."

Beth was 51 years old.

While the majority of Bonnie's followers expressed their condolences, she also apparently received some less-than-pleasant messages, promoting her to unleash on the trolls.

"For those talking [trash] about my mother after her death, shame on you. My mother was a person and doesn't deserve to be degraded because of ANY of her or my father's past," she wrote. "My mother fought for women's rights and was the kindest woman."

Bonnie later posted a sentimental photo of her parents.

https://twitter.com/Bonniejoc/status/1143928993898348544

"So thankful I got your beautiful smile," she wrote of her mom, later tearfully adding, "I'd never thought I'd lose my mom at 20. I told her I thought she had a couple years left, but in her eyes she disagreed."

Andy Cohen on the secrets of what makes a good 'Housewives' star

https://94890ooyala-a.akamaihd.net/1sNmwyaTE636VC-Sv0o2-8e_tmQA-ntL/DOcJ-FxaFrRg4gtDEwOjNtNzowczE7rs

So, you think you could be a "Real Housewife"? Well, there's actually a fairly complicated formula for what makes a great Bravolebrity, according to "Real Housewives" creator, Andy Cohen.

Gregory Pace/Shutterstock

"Someone who's funny and unique and interesting to watch. Someone who has something to say, and is different, surprising and just watchable," he told PAPER magazine. "There's a fine line between people who are desperate to be on reality television, and people who you want to watch on reality television."

He adds, "The Venn diagram of desperation and watchable, it's a very slim thing in the middle where it overlaps, and you're like, 'That's the bullseye, that's NeNe Leakes, that's Vicki [Gunvalson], that's Bethenny [Frankel].'"

Sometimes, of course, things just don't work out, and many women have been given the Bravo axe.

"If they become a turn-off to viewers, for whatever reason—they appear too fake, they're not interesting, they're not entertaining—[then they're no longer a fit]," the Bravo scion said. "When people cross the line and it becomes unreal, that's when they are out."

MediaPunch/REX/Shutterstock

Of course, because Andy is the franchise's executive producer, his relationships with the stars of his shows can become "complicated."

"I'm a boss, I'm a friend… I'm an adversary, I'm a button pusher," he said. "I've become legitimately friends with many of them. I care about them. So it's nuanced. And sometimes it's great and sometimes it's not great. It's an emotional relationship."

Brody Jenner under fire for calling Caitlyn Jenner 'he' twice

Brody Jenner is facing backlash online after using the wrong pronoun to describe his parent, Caitlyn Jenner.

On the debut episode of "The Hills: New Beginnings," Brody was addressing the changes in his life since the initial "The Hills" last aired, and in doing so, he called Caitlyn "he" twice.

Variety/Shutterstock

"My dad, he also became a woman — don't wanna forget about that one!" Brody said. "I had been dating Kaitlynn Carter for four and a half years, and my dad came out and said that he wanted to be called Caitlyn. Two Caitlyns. Look man, it's a wild world we live in out there, you know?"

Many viewers and social media users pounced on Brody for misgendering Caitlyn.

"Brody Jenner remains a pile of trash + seems to really enjoy purposely misgendering Caitlyn Jenner," one viewer tweeted.

Another wrote he was a "tool" for "misgendering Caitlyn."

"The shade that came from Brody's first interview towards his dad Caitlyn #interesting," another tweeted.

Earl Gibson III/Getty Images

In 2015, Caitlyn announced she was transitioning to a woman. Brody and Caitlyn have been open about their strained relationship. Caitlyn has actually said she was notably absent for much of his childhood. Brody admitted that he was "deeply hurt" when his father decided not to attend his wedding in 2018, instead choosing to go to Vienna that same day.

"I spend a lot of time by myself here in the house. I have a lot of children, but sometimes just because of circumstances, maintaining a close relationship with your kids is very tough," Caitlyn told Broadly. "They all have lives. They've all moved on. We're just human beings; we're going to be here for a very short time. We come and we go and at the end, when it's all said and done, hopefully your family is going to be there."

Sophie Turner shares steamy pic of Joe Jonas before second wedding

Sophie Turner is sharing a steamy photo of her husband Joe Jonas just a few days before their elaborate Paris wedding ceremony.

In the snap posted to the "Game of Thrones" star's Instagram Story, Joe is seen relaxing, presumably naked, in a bathtub and looking at the camera while the green Paris countryside is seen through the open french doors.

Sophie Turner/Instagram

The couple is expected to have a Paris ceremony this weekend, which comes a two months after they had a surprise wedding in Las Vegas after the Billboard Music Awards. The date of the Paris ceremony had been under wraps, but Dr. Phil McGraw accidentally spilled the date on Instagram while recently commenting on a photo of the duo.

"Easy now! 1 week to go!" he wrote on June 23. "Ha! See you at the wedding!"

Earlier in the week, both Sophie and Joe shared an image of them kissing on a bridge while the Eiffel Tower stands in the background.

When the couple legally tied the knot (via an Elvis impersonator, no less) on May 1, it came as a surprise, especially considering Joe and his brothers had just finished performing at the award's show.

"Joe, I think, had this idea that he wanted to do this. But we were at the Billboards and he had these little black cards that we all got," Nick Jonas' wife Priyanka Chopra told Access Hollywood afterward. "We were randomly inviting our friends, like people that we met. We were like, 'alright, we're going to set up this wedding now, we're going to the chapel right from here, and please arrive, please arrive'. We had Diplo, Khalid, they were really sweet, they arrived."

Country duo Dan + Shay sang "Speechless" while Sophie walked down the aisle.

A source told People magazine, "They had to get married in the States to make it legal, but the wedding is still in Europe."

Prosecutors allege Cardi B coordinated bartender attack via social media, plus more new details

Back in April, Cardi B rejected a plea deal in a criminal case concerning a Queens strip club brawl that injured two female bartenders. Then on June 22 — one day after Cardi was indicted by a grand jury on 12 charges — including two counts of felony attempted assault — the rapper told a concert crowd, "I ain't going to jail, I got a daughter!"

Prosecutors, however, don't think she should be so confident. On June 25, Page Six reported new details of the district attorney's case against the music star, who faces four years in prison if convicted, that emerged in new court documents. The same day, Cardi (real name: Belcalis Almanzar) pleaded "not guilty, sir, [your] honor," in a Queens courtroom.

Prosecutors allege that Cardi and two co-defendants, Tawana Jackson-Morel and Jeffrey Bush, coordinated attacks against a woman Cardi believed had slept with her husband, Migos rapper Offset. The woman's sister was also targeted, authorities claim. The D.A. alleges that they arranged the time, day and location — last August at Angels Gentlemen's Club in Flushing, where the women worked as bartenders — using social media.

Page Six reports that Cardi and one of her co-defendants also allegedly discussed exchanging money for the attack, the Queens grand jury indictment reveals.

The beat-downs were "premeditated," acting Queens District Attorney John Ryan said in a statement on June 25, Page Six reported. "The victims allegedly had glass bottles hurled at them, alcoholic drinks thrown in their faces and one woman's head was slammed into the bar. This kind of violence won't be tolerated in our community. The defendants will be held accountable for their alleged actions."

Cardi herself allegedly threw a hookah and beverage glasses, while people who were with her tossed bottles and chairs during a fight on Aug. 27, it was previously reported. One of Cardi's co-defendants also allegedly threw a drink in one of the bartender's faces "while the rapper and [the other co-defendant] also hurled bottles of booze at her," Page Six writes, citing the indictment.

But it wasn't the first physical altercation. The D.A.'s office alleges that after ordering a drink from the other bartender just before 3 a.m. days earlier on Aug. 15, one of Cardi's co-defendants then "grabbed the woman's hair and slammed her head into the bar and punched her while [the other co-defendant] recorded the attack," Page Six writes.

A lawyer for Cardi, who also faces charges of attempted assault, harassment, conspiracy and criminal solicitation, earlier denied the brawl was premeditated, Page Six reports.

Cardi's attorney, like his client, believes she'll emerge victorious. "It'll ultimately be a positive outcome in favor of Cardi," lawyer Drew Findling told Page Six. "I know Cardi on a personal level. I know Cardi as a wife, as a mother, as a daughter, as a sister," he also said, calling the rapper, "a kind human being."
