Bunnie Xo Jokes About Jelly Roll Marriage Being a Prison Bid
Bunnie Xo is setting the record straight on the speculation surrounding her divorce from Jelly Roll.
“I’ve seen this narrative online where people are like, ‘Bunnie was embarrassing Jelly.’ That’s why he wanted the divorce. ‘She’s not good for his PR,’” Bunnie, 46, said during the Friday, June 26, episode of her “Dumb Blonde” podcast. “I’m just like, please, it’s not me, OK. It’s not me, and that’s completely false.”
In the wake of their split, Bunnie (real name Alisa DeFord) told listeners that her DMs are open. While some podcast listeners have written in asking for advice, others have written “crazy” things.
Friday’s episode of the podcast was an “ask, tell, confess” installment, meaning listeners wrote into Bunnie. One message came from a man getting out of a “10-year bid” in prison asking for “a time” with her when he’s released.
“What I don’t like is he said, ‘Let me go out and have a time with you.’ So that’s where it’s like, OK, so you’re just expecting me to put out on this first date?” Bunnie said. “Listen, same. I just got out of a 10-year bid too, bitches, what are we talking about?”

Bunnie was laughing while telling listeners that she’s “gonna get a phone call” from Jelly (real name Jason Bradley DeFord) after that comment.
“I’m sorry, OK,” she said. “Just cutting a rug, buddy.”
Jelly submitted a petition for divorce in Tennessee on May 18. However, their split news didn’t go public until June 15.
“On Mother’s Day, we had a little bit of an argument, which I don’t think the details are necessary,” Bunnie explained on the June 18 episode of her “Dumb Blonde” podcast, detailing what led to their divorce.
“I was so fed up and so tired that I just looked at him and I said, ‘Well, then file the f***ing divorce papers,’” she claimed. “And in our relationship, that is the one cardinal thing that you don’t say. Even though my husband has said it numerous times ‘cause he’s the runner.”
Jelly was apparently “so mad” that he did what she said.
“Was I blindsided? And was this divorce mutual? No, it was not mutual,” she added. “Even though I told him to file the divorce papers, I was speaking out of anger and just frustration.”
Bunnie referred to Jelly as her “best friend” despite their breakup.
“I don’t care how f***ed up our relationship was, which it wasn’t that f***ed up. I don’t care how much we didn’t communicate or how things shook out,” she said. “I was riding with this motherf***er till the wheels fell off. I didn’t care. I felt like we deserved a chance to go to therapy and figure s*** out. He didn’t feel that way and I respect it.”

Forget ‘Reacher,’ This 10-Part Spy Thriller Is Your Next Streaming Obsession
Spy thrillers and action shows have taken over the streaming world in the last 5–10 years, and few are operating at as high a level as Reacher. The Prime Video original thriller stars Alan Ritchson as the titular character, and although Season 4 has yet to premiere, the streamer has already picked up the show for Season 5. Reacher has become so popular that other services have begun to try and replicate its success — Netflix has settled on The Night Agent as its Reacher replacement series. Reacher is based on the series of novels written by author Lee Child, and like Ian Fleming’s James Bond writings, Child has confirmed that the inspiration for Reacher came from multiple sources. One of said sources is The Day of the Jackal, the acclaimed espionage novel written by Frederick Forsyth that was first adapted into a feature film in 1973.
Ronan Bennett took The Day of the Jackal novel and adapted it into a TV series a few years ago, tapping Eddie Redmayne (Fantastic Beasts) and Lashana Lynch (Captain Marvel) as leads. The first season of The Day of the Jackal aired all the way back in 2024, and while the show has been picked up for Season 2, Peacock confirmed earlier this year that it won’t return to streaming until 2027. Production on Season 2 has been underway for a while now, which means the show should have little to no issue hitting its 2027 return date. There has been some turnover behind the scenes of the show in the creative department, which has possibly contributed to the lengthy delay between seasons.
Who Is ‘The Day of the Jackal’s New Showrunner?
Ronan Bennett was the lead writer and showrunner on the first season of The Day of the Jackal, but he has stepped back and been replaced by David Harrower in Season 2. This creative change was brought on only by scheduling conflicts for Bennett, who remains involved with the show as an executive producer — there was no reportedly no conflict that led to him stepping down. Harrower recently wrote episodes of the Colin Firth-led spy thriller on Peacock, Lockerbie: A Search for the Truth, and Bennett is also known for his work as the lead writer on MobLand, the Paramount+ crime thriller starring Tom Hardy and Pierce Brosnan.
Check out the first season of The Day of the Jackal on Peacock, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Season 2.

Why Courteney Cox Ended Relationship With Johnny McDaid
Courteney Cox is reportedly entering a new chapter in her life after quietly ending her long-term relationship with Snow Patrol musician Johnny McDaid.
The couple, who had been together for more than a decade, are said to have parted ways amicably after growing apart while living increasingly separate lives.
Despite the reported split, Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid have remained respectful of one another, with sources describing the breakup as mutual and free of drama.

Cox has reportedly separated from her musician boyfriend, Johnny McDaid, after more than a decade together.
According to the Daily Mail, the couple quietly parted ways toward the end of last year, with sources close to the former pair saying the separation was mutual and free of drama, with both remaining on good terms despite deciding to move forward separately.
Cox, widely recognized for portraying Monica Geller on the hit sitcom “Friends,” has spent most of her time in Los Angeles, while McDaid, a member of “Snow Patrol” and acclaimed songwriter, has largely been based in London.
Friends suggest the distance and their increasingly different lifestyles played a role in the decision.
“Johnny speaks incredibly highly of Courteney. They had a very deep relationship, and they remain extremely amicable. They are great friends and care about each other very much,” a friend reportedly said.
“This was not an ugly split. They had simply reached a point where they were living different lives,” the source added.
A Look Back At Courteney Cox And Johnny McDaid’s Romance

The pair first met in 2013 through mutual friends, including singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, who has worked closely with McDaid throughout his career.
Their romance quickly blossomed, leading to an engagement in 2014, which had fans at the time anticipating a wedding.
Although they briefly split in 2015, they reconciled the following year and remained together for several years afterward.
Both had previously spoken warmly about their relationship. Cox once reflected that their earlier breakup ultimately strengthened their bond, while McDaid publicly expressed gratitude for having her in his life.
Johnny McDaid Is Already Dating Someone Else After His Split From The Actress

McDaid and Cox’s last public appearances together included a double date in Malibu last summer with fellow “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston and wellness coach Jim Curtis. They were also photographed attending the US Open in September.
Since ending their relationship, both are said to be focusing on new chapters in their personal lives.
Reports suggest McDaid has recently begun seeing someone new, and according to the Daily Mail, things are still fresh with the singer and his new lover.
Cox, on the other hand, has been romantically linked to actor Greg Kinnear after the two were spotted together in New York. However, the duo has maintained they are simply friends,
Courteney Cox Celebrates Daughter Coco’s 22nd Birthday With Heartfelt Tribute
While navigating this new chapter, Cox has continued to focus on family and remains close to her former husband, David Arquette.
The pair, who share daughter Coco Arquette, have long been praised for their cooperative co-parenting relationship.
Earlier this month, the actress marked Coco’s 22nd birthday with a touching tribute on social media, giving fans a rare glimpse into their mother-daughter bond. The post featured a series of photos, including a selfie that highlighted the pair’s striking resemblance. In the image, Cox and Coco posed cheek-to-cheek, showing off similar brunette hairstyles and matching freckles.
Another photo took followers back in time, showing a younger Courteney holding Coco as a child while spending time by the ocean.
Alongside the pictures, the actress shared a heartfelt message celebrating her daughter.
“Happy Birthday, Co,” she wrote. “You are such a wise soul. Funniest person I know and my life teacher. I love you.”
Courteney Cox Reflects On Close Bond With Daughter Coco After Heartfelt Birthday Tribute

The birthday tribute followed a similarly emotional message Cox shared for Coco’s 21st birthday the previous year. At the time, she posted a throwback photo from Coco’s infancy and expressed the depth of her love for her daughter.
“My heart barely fits inside my chest for the amount of love I have for you,” she wrote. “Keep it coming, Co to the Lo. I’m so happy I’m your Bourt Lemon. Happy birthday. I love you so much.”
Although Cox generally keeps family moments private, she and Coco have occasionally opened up about their relationship. During a joint interview in 2018, the pair spoke candidly about their close bond and the typical disagreements that come with raising a teenager. “We bicker, let’s be honest, but we love each other,” Cox said at the time. “We laugh a lot, for sure.”
The actress also admitted that, like many parents of teenagers, she sometimes wished her daughter would share more about her life. “I want her to tell me everything, and she doesn’t want to tell me anything,” she said. “Exactly the opposite of the childhood I had.”

Alan Ritchson’s $700M Action Epic Quietly Takes Over Streaming Ahead of Sequel
Alan Ritchson has had a big year in 2026, but that doesn’t come as much of a surprise to fans who have been following his career with interest over the last few years. Ritchson made his Netflix debut in the massive sci-fi blockbuster, War Machine, which has gone on to become one of the top 10 most-watched movies of all time on the platform. Netflix has already confirmed that a sequel to the film is in the works. Ritchson will also return to his signature role as Jack Reacher in the hit Prime Video series, Reacher, before the end of this year. Prime Video has already announced that Reacher Season 4 is on the way sometime in 2026, and the series has been picked up for Season 5 ahead of its official return.
War Machine is far from the first time that Alan Ritchson has starred in a big-budget blockbuster, though. Back in 2023, when he had only starred in one season of Reacher, Ritchson joined the Fast & Furious franchise for the massively expensive blockbuster, Fast X, which grossed over $700 million at the global box office. While this would be a huge success story for almost any other movie ever made, Fast X’s $340 million budget means the film didn’t net as much profit at the box office as Universal Pictures certainly would have liked. Still, the film has redeemed itself in the years since streaming on Peacock, where it has consistently been one of the top 10 most-watched titles. It’s also a smash hit on VOD platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV, where it’s a popular rental and purchase. This all comes before the premiere of the final installment, Fast Forever, in 2028.
When Does Alan Ritchson’s Next Movie Come Out?
Alan Ritchson’s next action movie, Motor City, is coming to theaters on July 24, 2026, between the releases of The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The film is set against the backdrop of Detroit in the 1970s, and it follows a man who finds himself embroiled in a revenge plot against the man who ruined his life and took his girl away. Shailene Woodley, who recently starred in the second season of Paradise, will star opposite Alan Ritchson in the film. Halo and Den of Thieves veteran Pablo Schreiber will also have a key role, along with Ben Foster.
Check out Fast X on Peacock in America, and stay tuned to Collider for more streaming updates and coverage of Ritchson’s future projects.

Hector Bello Gives Update on Daughter After His Wife’s Death
South American soccer star Héctor Bello is sharing an update after his wife, Andrea Bello, tragically died in the catastrophic Venezuelan earthquakes earlier this week.
“I want to reiterate: I haven’t asked anyone for money, nor have I set up any mobile payment accounts. I am traveling to Venezuela,” Héctor, 28, wrote in Spanish via his Instagram Stories on Friday, June 26. “We are only asking for diapers, wet wipes, baby clothes and fruit. I haven’t posted any mobile payment details on social media.”
Without asking for financial assistance, the soccer player said that his friends David Barreto and Victor Castro have been gathering any donated materials to assist him and his daughter in the wake of the tragedy.
“They are the ones handling the donations right now. I’m also grateful to the people who helped yesterday,” Héctor said. “[My daughter] has already been discharged from the hospital and is staying at the home of her aunt’s close friend. We no longer need the shelter, and the baby is doing well. We’ve only asked for personal necessities.no money at all.”
Héctor and Andrea welcomed their daughter, Alana, in 2024. Nearly two years later, Andrea was found dead after two earthquakes — one 7.2 and another 7.5 in magnitude — hit Venezuela on Wednesday, June 24. At least 920 people were killed and as many as 3,300 were left injured at the time of publication.

“We regret to inform you that the partner of Cumanes footballer Héctor Bello ‘Kike’ was found dead in the rubble after the earthquake that shook the country yesterday afternoon/evening,” a statement shared by soccer club Cumaná de Campeones read. “His daughter survived the collapse of the building where the entire family lived. The entire state of Sucre and the entire football community embrace you and stand with you in respect and solidarity, hoping you find peace in this time of sorrow.”
Breaking his silence on the tragedy, Héctor revealed via Instagram that Andrea had shielded their 20-month-old daughter during the natural disaster, using her body to save their child.
“You’ll always be our favorite heroine, Mommy. I’ll make sure to remind our baby girl how wonderful you were and how much you loved her,” he wrote in a social media tribute. “’ll tell her the story of how you saved her, my love — how you gave your own life for our daughter, how you were a brave woman who never abandoned her, even as you breathed your last.”
Héctor concluded, “You left my soul shattered. You left me to fight this battle alone — a fight we always said was ours to face together. Do you remember sending me that photo? I told you, ‘That little girl is so beautiful,’ and you asked, ‘Me too, right?’ and started laughing. I told you, ‘Yes, you’re beautiful too, but not as beautiful as me, haha.’”

James Van Der Beek’s Widow Says Their ‘Love Does Not Die’
Kimberly Van Der Beek still feels her late husband James Van Der Beek’s presence nearly four months after his death at 48.
“Baby, love does not die. Death does not part,” Kimberly, 44, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, June 28, sharing throwback photos of the couple.
Kimberly shared additional family photos via her Instagram Stories, recalling how James “was always building something with a child in tow.”
James died in February after battling stage III colorectal cancer. The Dawson’s Creek star is survived by Kimberly and their six children.
“Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning. He met his final days with courage, faith and grace,” Kimberly wrote in a statement shared via social media at the time, announcing James’ death. “There is much to share regarding his wishes, love for humanity, and the sacredness of time. Those days will come. For now we ask for peaceful privacy as we grieve our loving husband, father, son, brother and friend.”
In the months since James’ death, Kimberly has been candid about her bereavement journey.
“Yesterday was three months since we lost @vanderjames. To say I’m heartbroken is a severe understatement. Words just don’t capture what grief is,” she captioned an Instagram tribute last month. “The comforts of shock have worn off. The reality is settling in … and I miss him. We all miss him. Yet, there is a different kind of magic in the air.”
She continued at the time, “I feel him. I know him more deeply. My conscious connection to God has deepened. The veils of the universe have thinned. And I trust that this is the path me and my family have always been intended to walk. The outpouring of support has been tremendous. It’s held our family in the most beautiful of ways.”
Kimberly and her kids recently honored James on Father’s Day, their first since the actor’s death.
“Missing you so much and thinking of how magnificent you were in every single way today,” Kimberly wrote via Instagram on June 21. “And somehow, from the other side? You continue to parent. You’re a marvel.”
James and Kimberly’s friends also celebrated his journey as a dad in the comments section.
“The best of the best forever. We love you so much James🙏🏼❤️✨,” Nikki Reed replied. “Wrapping all of your little people in the warmest hugs today, and always. ❤️❤️❤️.”
Dave Annable, for his part, added, “The best father there ever was.”

Olivia Rodrigo Fans React To Her Chart-Topping Streak: ‘Goated’
Olivia Rodrigo made history last week as her newly released album, “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love,” debuted at the top spot on the Billboard 200.
Fans are having a field day on social media, with many debating whether she is “the greatest of this generation.”
Rodrigo recently caused a stir when she claimed that some fans wear diapers to keep their front-row spots at her concerts, adding that she can sometimes smell them while performing.

Following the release of her new album, “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love,” Olivia Rodrigo made history on the charts as the project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
The feat cements her status as one of the most successful singers of her generation, as she is now the first artist in history to debut her first three albums at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and her first three lead singles at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
According to the music magazine, data compiled by Luminate showed that the album arrived with a massive 485,000 equivalent album units during its first tracking week, which ended June 18.
The blockbuster frame marks the singer’s biggest career opening week to date by units, as well as the largest debut week for any solo artist so far in 2026.
How Rodrigo Powered Her Massive Opening Week
The mind-blowing numbers for “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love” were fueled by both a massive streaming footprint and strong physical sales.
Of the album’s 485,000 equivalent album units earned in the latest tracking week, traditional album sales amounted to 273,000, SEA units comprised 211,000, translating to roughly 218.4 million on-demand audio streams, while TEA units made up 1,000.
The success was also encouraged by the album’s availability in 15 different physical variants, with vinyl alone accounting for 164,000 copies sold.
On its way to the impressive feat, Rodrigo’s album dethroned Drake’s “ICEMAN,” which slipped to No. 2 after an impressive four-week run at the top.
The rest of the Top 5 was rounded out by Ella Langley with “Dandelion,” Morgan Wallen with “I’m the Problem,” and Noah Kahan’s “The Great Divide.”
Fans Debate Olivia Rodrigo’s Place In Pop’s New Era

Several fans took to social media to praise the singer for the project, while others engaged in debates, calling her the greatest artist of this generation.
“485K units in week one is massive. Olivia Rodrigo keeps proving she’s one of this generation’s biggest stars,” a fan wrote on X, while another said, “We absolutely love to see it. can’t say I’m surprised though, the album is fantastic.”
Someone else wrote, “nah olivia is goated. I’m dead proud of her and her growth.”
Another person added, “That is a huge moment for her career and shows how strong her fanbase is supporting her music worldwide right now.”
Meanwhile, critics argued that with so many variants available, such high sales numbers were expected.
“We really need an asterisk or something on the charts to differentiate between artists who use bundles and those who sell pure albums,” one X user suggested.
Rodrigo Prepares To Take New Music On The Road

Fans will soon get to hear the new tracks live, as Rodrigo is set to kick off “The Unraveled Tour” on September 25, 2026, in Hartford, Connecticut, before taking the show globally through mid-2027.
The singer has also taken to her social media to announce a special festival for her fans, slated for August 29.
The event, titled “Daisy Chain Fields,” will feature an all-women lineup including Chappell Roan, Die Spitz, Rachel Chinouriri, and others.
“Truly, never felt more excited to share a piece of news with you all. I’ve had a dream of doing this festival for years, and I am so ecstatic it’s finally coming true!!” she wrote in the caption.
Rodrigo continued, “Daisy Chain Fields features an all-women lineup and 100 percent of the net proceeds will go to charities dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls.”
She added, “The lineup is truly insane and full of my heroes and friends. I firmly believe that joy, community, and music can be the drivers of meaningful change, and I’m hopeful this festival will be just that. I absolutely cannot wait to scream and dance and sing with you guys August 29th.”
The debate over Rodrigo’s achievement comes after the singer caused a stir by revealing that some fans use diapers just to hold on to their front-row spots at her shows.
She made the revelation during an interview on the UK radio show “KISS Breakfast,” saying she sometimes smells them.
“I have been to certain concerts and certain festivals where people wear diapers so that they can be front row of the show,” she said. “That’s been an experience of a performer that I have smelled and experienced.”
Rodrigo added, “It’s also like with the ball drop in New York for New Year’s Eve, everyone is wearing diapers — they sit there all day. That’s a thing. I think about it kind of often. It’s a real thing.”

Fashionable People Are Wearing This Elevated Flip-Flop Style
Us Weekly has affiliate partnerships. We receive compensation when you click on a link and make a purchase. Learn more!
While walking down New York City streets this summer, I’ve noticed one specific footwear trend: flip-flop kitten heels. The most stylish women are wearing them everywhere, including the office, Sunday brunch and even on rowdy nights out with friends. It makes sense. Kitten heels are easy to walk in and the single flip-flop strap exudes an effortless vibe. There’s a lot to love about this shoe trend, and while you might think it’s basic, well, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
I found the most unique and fun flip-flop kitten heels across our favorite retailers, including Amazon, Nordstrom and DSW. If you want a reliable black pair, I found just the style. And if you want to push your fashion boundaries, there are plenty of patterned and more strappy options for you, too. Keep reading to find your new favorite shoe, below.

4. The Chicest Pattern: You’ll be the coolest person in the room when you show up to the function with these leather tortoise kitten heels that match your trendy tortoise sunglasses.

7. Bling Bling: Plain shoes have their time and place, but sometimes you just want a little more flair. The buckle on the strap of these white heels glints in the sun for a bit more pizzazz.
8. Vacation Ready: Between the woven bottom and vibrant pink flower decal, these sunny kitten heels are begging to be worn in the tropics.
9. Red Hot: Make a serious statement with these bright red kitten heels. You’ll look fiery any time you slip them on (in the best way).
10. Gingham Dreams: Gingham can feel intimidating to wear since it’s generally a loud pattern. Ease into the trend with these dainty bowed kitten heels. They make for a playful accent to every summer outfit.
11. Basically Jewelry: No need for extra accessories when you wear these summery kitten heels. The straps are studded with multicolored stones.

Noah Kahan Praises Taylor Swift’s Tour Fitness: ‘Not Easy’
Just like Us, Noah Kahan doesn’t quite understand how Taylor Swift can do it all.
“Yo, Taylor Swift must be in such good shape,” Kahan, 29, quipped during his Friday, June 26, concert in Philadelphia, per social media footage. “Holy f***, this is not easy. It’s not even a particularly hot day, I’m just not doing well.”
He added, “If you’re new to this [fandom], I’m always this sweaty.”
Kahan recently kicked off his Great Divide Tour, nearly two years after Swift, 26, wrapped her history-making Eras Tour. Swift traversed countries and continents from 2023 to 2024, singing her entire discography of songs alongside intricate choreography for three hours each performance.
Before Swift embarked on Eras, she famously overhauled her workout regimen.
“Every day I would run on the treadmill, singing the entire set list out loud,” Swift told TIME in December 2023. “Fast for fast songs, and a jog or a fast walk for slow songs.”

In addition, Swift hit the dance studio to master choreographer Mandy Moore’s routines.
“I had three months of dance training because I wanted to get it in my bones,” she recalled to the outlet. “I wanted to be so over-rehearsed that I could be silly with the fans, and not lose my train of thought.”
Swift also worked with personal trainer Kirk Myers at his Dogpound gym to get in shape, utilizing a unique program that incorporated strength, conditioning and weights.
“Her work ethic is just incredible,” Myers told Vogue in April 2024 of working with the 14-time Grammy winner. “Some people would probably throw up or have to lay down on the floor if they trained like her.”
He added at the time, “We approached her training for the Eras Tour with the mindset like a professional athlete. There was an ‘off-season’ when she wasn’t touring and ‘in-season’ when she was. When she’s not touring, we’re in the gym up to six days a week for sometimes two hours a day.”
Swift wrapped Eras in December 2024.
“I was on tour for so long and now I finally am not on tour, and it’s kind of great because I’m getting my hobbies back,” Swift quipped on an October 2025 episode of her fiancé Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast, detailing life after the Eras Tour. “When I was on tour, all I had the bandwidth for was, ‘What’s the acoustic mashup this week?’ How do I say, ‘Welcome to the Eras Tour in Portuguese?’ That was the only thing taking up my brain space.”
In the months since Swift finished Eras, she got engaged to Travis, 36, and they are reportedly set to tie the knot this summer.
