Pete Davidson Makes Sudden Real Estate Pivot
Pete Davidson has made an unexpected move with his New York home just weeks after reaching a co-parenting agreement with Elsie Hewitt.
The comedian initially listed the North Salem property for $2.5 million in February. The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home later dropped to $1.9 million before he removed the listing.
The couple welcomed their first child in December 2025. Their child, Scott Matthew Davidson, is named after Pete Davidson’s late father. The comedian had previously said he wanted to move closer to his family in Staten Island while raising his daughter.

The former “Saturday Night Live” star officially removed his New York country property from the market on August 13. The four-bedroom had been listed since February. The initial asking price was $2.5 million before it was dropped to $1.9 million.
The property sits on six acres and covers about 2,300 square feet. It has a stone fireplace, a fish tank, sauna, wine cellar, cold plunge and hot tub. The home also features a lap pool, gym, media room and several decks.
Davidson bought the property in June 2023 for just under $2 million. He previously described it as “literally like living in paradise” and said it gave him an escape from the noise of New York City. PEOPLE shared that his reason for leaving the “hip, funky cool place” was to be closer to his family as he raises his child.
The Recent Co-Parenting Agreement Changed Everything
Davidson and Hewitt confirmed their co-parenting agreement in a joint statement in late July. The joint custody news came just two months after news of their breakup. Davidson and the model dated for less than a year before they announced welcoming a child together.
The comedian pulled his home off the market only weeks after the couple agreed to raise their daughter together. The former couple said their daughter’s well-being remains their top priority.
“We are cooperatively co-parenting our daughter whose well-being remains our top priority, and we are fully committed to working together to give her love from both of us,” the couple announced.
The Blast reported that the pair had already been having “productive conversations” about their daughter before announcing the agreement. Davidson had also adjusted his schedule so he could be more present in his daughter’s life. However, there is no sign of reconciliation between the couple, despite the custody agreement.
The model, Hewitt, had previously shared that she was handling parenting responsibilities alone. Davidson’s representatives refuted her claim and described him as “a very present father.” Sources also said he covered expenses connected to Hewitt, including rent and health insurance.
Pete Davidson Was Also Spotted With Another Woman
Davidson’s personal life drew more attention shortly after the co-parenting announcement. He was spotted in Brooklyn with “Love Thy Nader” star Sarah Jane Nader. The pair appeared comfortable together during the outing, with Davidson seen holding open a car door for her.
The sighting happened only two days after Davidson and Hewitt announced their commitment to co-parenting. The footage did not show the pair kissing or displaying obvious affection. The duo has confirmed that they are dating.
The Blast shared that Nader already has her own public profile as a model, influencer, and reality TV personality. She appears alongside her sisters on “Love Thy Nader.” Her appearance with Davidson therefore sparked dating speculation, but the nature of their relationship remains unclear.

Davidson’s comedy career began when he was just 16 after a dare led him to perform stand-up at a bowling alley. He quickly became interested in comedy and started booking appearances on MTV shows. His early credits included “Failosophy,” “Guy Code” and “Wild’ N Out.”
His first televised stand-up appearance came on Comedy Central’s “Gotham Comedy Live.” He landed a small role in “Trainwreck,” which later connected him with Bill Hader. The connection helped Davidson secure an audition for “Saturday Night Live.”
Davidson joined “SNL” for its 40th season in 2014. He became one of the youngest cast members in the show’s history and the first cast member born in the 1990s. His eight-season run eventually helped establish him as a household name.
Pete Davidson’s High Profile Dating History

Davidson has had quite an interesting dating history. His five-month relationship with Ariana Grande in 2018 attracted huge attention, and the pair got engaged shortly after their first date. Their relationship and breakup put the comedian’s name on the map.
The “SNL” star dated quite a number of women of high status after his breakup with Grande. Kate Beckinsale, Kaia Gerber, Kim Kardashian, Emily Ratajkowski, and Madelyn Cline were all women he had dated. Parade noted that the attention Davidson got from the relationships has kept him firmly in headlines and in the eye of the public.
Now, Davidson’s life has entered a different chapter with the arrival of his daughter with Hewitt. His focus has shifted toward fatherhood and co-parenting while he continues working in entertainment. The decision surrounding his North Salem home adds another change to that new phase.

Margaret Qualley Frees Her Toes in Barefoot Chanel Shoes
Margaret Qualley let the dogs out.
Qualley, 31, went nearly barefoot at the Dog Stars premiere in London, England, on Thursday, August 20, in a pair of soleless Chanel flats. The shoes, which are going viral on social media, featured nothing but a heel and two straps that tied in bows around the base of her ankle. The actress made sure her toes were perfectly polished with black paint.
On the red carpet, Qualley opened up to Good Morning America about her unconventional look, confirming that she was indeed barefoot. “Well, I found the little Chanel [shoes],” she said while looking down at her feet. “I’m Chanel barefoot!”
The Substance star styled her interesting footwear with a Chanel dress featuring a plunging neckline, short sleeves, a snatched waist and all-over fringe details.
For glam, Qualley donned a full beat including glowy skin, manicured eyebrows, winged eyeliner, blushed cheeks and pin lops. Her brunette hair was parted down the middle and styled in soft curls.

Fans were quick to share their reactions to Qualley’s shoes via Instagram.
“I was IN LOVE until I saw the shoes,” one wrote. A second agreed, “What the helly?” Another person questioned her flats, writing, “Why bother with a shoe at all at that point?? 🤨.” One more loved her overall look, but wasn’t here for the partial-shoes: “Silly shoes, but she is sooooo incredibly beautiful!! 😍😍😍.”
In Dog Stars, Qualley plays Cima alongside Jacob Elordi, who stars as Hig. More cast members include Josh Brolin (Bangley) and Guy Pearce (Pops). The movie follows survivors of a pandemic that travel through a post-apocalyptic land to find the origin of a radio transmission.
Qualley previously promoted the film, which is set to premiere in theaters on August 28, via Instagram.
In June, she shared a zoomed-in photo of herself, giving fans a close-up on her freckles. “Dog Stars ⭐️ 💫 in theaters August 28,” she captioned the post.

Love Island’s Iris Kendall Reveals Beauty Treatment Regrets
Love Island USA alum Iris Kendall opened up about beauty treatments she’s tried through the years.
“Obviously I wanna preface this by saying do whatever to your body,” she said via TikTok on Thursday, August 20. “These are just personal things that I regret.”
“The first thing that I really regret doing to myself is getting lip injections,” Kendall, 26, said, noting she got the injections at just 18 years old. “I really wish I didn’t do that. It just never fully went away. I just don’t think the injector knew what they were doing. They totally overfilled my lips.”
The reality star went on to say that if her fans want to get lip filler, she recommends finding the “right injector.”
“For me, I already had naturally plump lips, so I didn’t really need it,” she said.

Kendall then addressed speculation of other work she’s had done, sharing that she only has Botox in her forehead, which she doesn’t regret because it’s “an anti-wrinkle preventative.”
“I just didn’t want to form those wrinkles on my forehead, so that’s why I did it,” she added.
The influencer also shared that she doesn’t have any Botox in her lower face, but normally has “strong facial muscles.”
“That’s why some things don’t move on my face,” she explained.
Another thing she regrets is tanning without SPF. “I do have sun damage from not wearing sunscreen,” she shared. “Also, make sure you put it on your neck.”
Kendall also noted that she regrets not applying products to her neck while doing her skincare and makeup routine, as well as not “embracing” her natural brunette hair color. “Don’t get me wrong, I did love the blonde, but it was hard to maintain,” she said.
Kendall lastly shared that she regrets spending so much money on expensive skincare products and not finding her best eyebrow shape earlier.

Brian Hickerson Accused of Drug Use Before Hayden Panettiere Death
Hayden Panettiere‘s ex Brian Hickerson was reportedly accused of drug use three days before the actress’ unexpected death at 36.
According to court records obtained by People on Friday, August 21, prosecutors accused Hickerson, 37, of continued drug use amid his efforts to expunge his domestic violence convictions. Neither Hickerson nor his attorney attended the hearing.
During the hearing that occurred on August 13, prosecutors argued that Hickerson’s petition to expunge his two felony counts of corporal injury to a spouse/cohabitant should be denied. (Hickerson was convicted in 2021 after pleading no contest in a domestic violence case involving Panettiere. He was sentenced to 45 days in jail, for which he spent 13 days behind bars, four years of formal probation, 52 domestic violence classes and a five-year protective order. Hickerson also had to pay $500 in restitution.)
At the hearing last week, a prosecutor argued that Hickerson appeared “quite high on what appears to be a stimulant,” claiming he was “very clearly not sober” during a recent interview, per the outlet. The prosecutor alleged that Hickerson spoke “for 15 minutes about the abuse that’s been documented in his victim’s bestselling book, and he makes several admissions about that.” (Hickerson was interviewed by TMZ in May following the release of Panettiere’s memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning.)
The prosecutor also stated that Hickerson “was high and arrested at a local restaurant in West Hollywood” in August 2025.
Us confirmed that Hickerson was arrested twice within a matter of days, the first time at a bar on August 2, 2025, and again on August 6, 2025. Records show that he was cuffed at 5:14 p.m. on August 2, booked at 5:45 p.m. and released at 3:17 a.m. the following morning. On August 6, he was arrested just before 8 a.m., booked at 9:12 a.m. and released later that evening.
The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department confirmed to Us that charges for both arrests were “under the influence of a controlled substance.”
According to records viewed by Us, Hickerson did have a hearing on August 13, which was three days before Panettiere’s death. His expungement request was ultimately denied by a judge.
Following the hearing last week, the L.A. County D.A.’s Office told People in a statement that prosecutors opposed Hickerson’s petition “based on the individual’s Aug. 2, 2025, arrest” and what they characterized as his “continued demonstrable drug use.”
Us has reached out to Hickerson’s attorney and the prosecutor in the case for comment.
Panettiere died on Sunday, August 16. She was found unresponsive at a residence in South Carolina by Brian and his brother, Zach Hickerson. Emergency services arrived at the scene to perform “advanced cardiac life support measures,” but the actress was pronounced dead that afternoon.
An autopsy was completed and found “no signs of trauma that would have contributed” to Panettiere’s death, per the coroner’s office. The cause and manner of her death “remain pending further investigation and the completion of additional studies.”
The New York Times reported on Thursday, August 20, that the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) was investigating Panettiere’s death.
Brian broke his silence on Panettiere’s death in a statement shared via his attorney Sloan Ellis.
“Hayden’s death remains under investigation and it is important to allow that investigation to proceed,” Ellis told Us on Thursday. “As has been publicly reported, police confirmed there were no signs of foul play. Out of respect for Hayden’s loved ones and the ongoing investigation, there will be no further comment at this time.”

Tom Hanks Criticized Ryan Fitzpatrick at Taylor Swift Wedding
Former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick thought he was about to have a moment with Tom Hanks, but instead, the legendary actor Big-timed him at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding.
“Tom Hanks knows who I am and he’s approaching me to talk to me,” Fitzpatrick, 43, said he was thinking on the Thursday, August 20 episode of the “Fitz and Whit” podcast. “I make eye contact…Tom’s gotta know who I am. Makes eye contact, points at me… so I’m feeling really good, I’m like, ‘Holy crap, how cool is this? Tom Hanks knows who I am and he’s approaching me to talk to me.’”
It turns out, that was not the case.
“He looks at me and he says, ‘Just so you know that’s a huge faux pas,” Fitzpatrick admitted. “You’re not supposed to wear a top hat at a wedding. That’s saved for the groom.’ And then [he] just keeps walking.”
Fitzpatrick continued, “It was like 50 percent that he was serious, 50 percent that it was a joke. I’m not sure which. But he has no idea who I am. I’m the guy that wore the top hat that was a huge faux pas at the wedding ‘cause it’s reserved for the groom.”
Fitzpatrick is a long-time friend of Kelce’s, having told Adam Schefter in 2022 that the pair met over a game of beer pong at a party. Despite his fashion error, the ex-quarterback has talked glowingly about his friend’s Madison Square Garden wedding, which took place on July 3.
“I may have cried,” he told at the ACC Golf Championship. “It was very emotional and also very fun and funny, too. It had all the feels.”
Fitzpatrick was also asked about the rumors that Kelce, 36, cried at the wedding.
“You know, it was kind of far away,” he said. “It might have been sweat that got in his eyes. I’m not sure. It was kind of far away, so I can’t tell you 100 percent.”
He added in an interview with People the week after the wedding that he was “floored” when he realized Adam Sandler would officiate the ceremony.
Afterward, FItzpatrick said he and his wife, Liza, tore it up on the dance floor.
“There was a lot of dancing, hours and hours, we’re still kind of recovering from being out on that dance floor for six-plus hours,” he said. “My favorite moment was just [when] I got to spend the night with my wife just on the dance floor, being around and being in it, so that was pretty magical for us.”

Why Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Changed Their Mind About the U.K.
After Prince Harry and Meghan Markle spent six years in California, royal watchers are wondering what really caused the couple to head back to the U.K.
“It is clear their time in America did not go to plan,” former royal butler Grant Harrold exclusively shares with Us. “We see that through the Netflix deal and some of their other commercial decisions. I think there are multiple factors at play. I suppose the dream life in the U.S. that they imagined didn’t come off.”
Harry, 41, and Meghan, 45, initially signed a $100 million, multiyear deal to produce their own TV shows and movies with Netflix in 2020.
Although they have not completely cut ties with the couple, Netflix ended their partnership with Meghan’s lifestyle brand, As Ever, in March after two seasons of With Love, Meghan.
Harrold, 48, who previously worked with King Charles III and is now a British etiquette expert and broadcaster, noted that Harry and Meghan aren’t the first to make a big move and have a change of heart.
“This happens to people all the time,” Harrold shares. “Many move abroad and then change their minds and move back. It just happens that this certain decision is incredibly public.”

News broke on Wednesday, August 19, that Harry and Meghan are relocating their children to the U.K. for an extended period starting later this month. The couple’s son, Prince Archie, 7, and daughter, Princess Lilibet, 5, are scheduled to begin school there in September.
Harry and Meghan will reportedly keep their home in Montecito, California, and their vacation residence in Portugal while having non-royal property in Britain.
Meghan is expected to continue leading her lifestyle brand from their international home while also planning a return to acting. Harry, meanwhile, will be spending more time supporting U.K.-based charities and patronages.
While the moving news caught many fans by surprise, Harrold is hopeful that some members of the royal family, including Charles, 77, were made aware long before it became front-page news.
“We know Harry and the king have been working on their relationship for the last few months. Even if it was only confirmed [to Charles over] the weekend, I would like to think there has been back and forth between them,” Harrold, who is a partner of OLBG says. “I think Harry would have taken his dad’s advice on aspects of the move and taken his pointers. Harry knows that doing this behind his dad’s back would cause more upset, and I imagine he’s doing everything he can to keep things sweet at the moment.”

Sons of Anarchy Creator Is ‘Not Involved’ in Spinoff
Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter addressed the recently announced spinoff Legends starring Charlie Hunnam and more original cast members.
“I know the news about Charlie’s show hit today, and I’ve been getting some queries about it. I just want to say my piece: I’m not involved with Legends at all, nor should I be,” Sutter, 66, said in a Thursday, August 20, Instagram video. “It has nothing to do with the characters I created or the mythology.”
Sutter explained that Legends, which will be a miniseries, is more about “the legacy” of Sons of Anarchy rather than the show itself. The screenwriter revealed that Hunnam, who is developing the project, approached him with the idea before taking it to FX.
“Just want folks to know that Charlie came to me early on, when he was in the process of pitching this to the network, to ask for my blessing, knowing that the IP [intellectual property] would probably not be able to be invoked for various reasons of legalese stuff, and I gave Charlie my full blessing,” he continued. “I wish nothing but the best for him in this project.”
Sutter added that his wife, Katey Sagal, is going to appear in the series as well. (Sagal starred in Sons of Anarchy as Gemma Teller Morrow, who was the mother of Hunnam’s character, Jax.)
The director teased that he caught a glimpse at the script for Legends while it was lying on his wife’s “knitting table” — and he thinks fans are going to like it.
“It’s so well-done, and I think you’ll dig it. And that’s my two cents,” he said. “I love Charlie to death, and I think you will have mad love for this project as well.”
Not only are Hunnam and Sagal returning, but a majority of the cast will be back as well. Ron Perlman, Maggie Siff, Mark Boone Junior, Tommy Flanagan, Kim Coates and Theo Rossi will also return.
According to the series’ premise, Legends will follow the Sons of Anarchy cast as they reunite “at a fan convention after more than a decade.”
“The line between life and art blurs as the fractured brotherhood finds itself up against a real-world threat more dangerous than anything they ever faced in their show,” the logline stated.
In addition to starring in Legends, Hunnam serves as an executive producer. It will be produced by FX Productions and 20th Television.
“When Charlie brought us this inspired idea, we instantly sparked to his bold and entertaining vision,” FX Entertainment president Nick Grad said in a statement after the network ordered the series. “Charlie’s talents are on full display as a writer, performer and executive producer, leading the real-life brotherhood on an adventure that is both a love letter to the series and a fun meta twist on what fans think they know.”

The Girls’ Nicole Williams English Addresses Her Marriage
The ruling on the field stands: Nicole Williams English’s No. 1 cheerleader remains her husband and former NFL star, Larry English.
“Larry is so great because he’s just down for whatever, and he always hangs out with the girls,” Nicole, 42, exclusively shared with Us earlier this month when promoting The Girls: A Khloé Kardashian Project. “It’s like, you gotta expect this.”
In Hulu’s new reality show, Nicole can’t help but spill some secrets about her marriage to her costars, which includes longtime friends Olivia Pierson and Natalie Halcro. Khadijah Haqq-McCray, Malika Haqq and Yris Palmer are also part of the ensemble cast, with Khloé Kardashian serving as the executive producer.
The very first episode has Nicole sharing some OMG details about her sex life with her close gal pals.
“I feel like with girlfriends, I won’t say too much, but with girlfriends and hanging out with your best friends, having a couple drinks, you kind of just spill the beans on everything — even if it is very personal,” Nicole told Us. “And girl chat sometimes goes a little too far, and this definitely went there.”
She continued, “I’m not gonna say too much. Sometimes you overexaggerate a little bit when you’re drinking, and it just led to what you guys will see.”
Nicole and Larry, 40, first signed up for reality TV when they appeared on the E! reality series WAGS from 2015 to 2017. Cameras followed a group of ladies who were romantically linked to professional athletes.

During the show, viewers watched the couple get married during a romantic ceremony at the Montage Laguna Beach in Orange County, California. They are now raising 3-year-old daughter India.
Although it’s been nearly 10 years since Nicole last filmed with Olivia, 37, and Natalie, 38, the trio remain dear friends.
“We’ve been friends for so long. I mean, Nat and Liv were like sisters to [Larry],” Nicole told Us. “He’ll bicker about them. I bicker to them about him, you know. He’ll be like, ‘I’m going on a hot date tonight,’ and I’m like, ‘Cool, Nat and Liv are coming.’ He’s like, ‘Ah, why can’t we ever just be alone?’ We come as a three-pack.”
She continued, “It’s more than a friendship too. We met later in life, and usually when you do that, you become friends, but you don’t find a best friend in that. I definitely think we were just meant to be because we’re just all so similar.”
Watch the friendships unfold by streaming The Girls: A Khloé Kardashian Project now on Hulu.

Kim Zolciak’s Son KJ Biermann’s Lawyer Addresses Arrest
The lawyer representing Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann’s son Kroy “KJ” Biermann is speaking out following the teen’s arrest for aggravated sodomy and aggravated sexual battery.
“First and foremost, this is not the kind of information that should be for public dissemination. These are juveniles,” KJ’s attorney Jason Sheffield told Us in a statement on Friday, August 21. “Secondly, my client is 100 percent innocent and tried to present evidence to the arresting officer, including a passed polygraph by a notable and respected sex offender polygrapher.”
Sheffield continued, “Additionally, the officer’s report notes the GBI [Georgia Bureau of Investigation] found no male DNA on or inside the areas the alleged victim claimed she was assaulted. Had the officer sat down with me, I feel certain she would’ve never made an arrest.”
According to a police report obtained by Us on Friday, KJ, 15, was booked in Alpharetta, Georgia for the felony charges earlier in the week. A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for September 8. KJ is currently being held at the Metro Regional Youth Detention Center. A bond was not set.
The alleged incident took place at Lifetime Fitness on April 23 and the minor female victim, who Us has chosen not to identify, reported an aggravated sexual battery and aggravated sodomy and was taken to the hospital. The alleged victim underwent a test and the results found no evidence of male DNA in her mouth or vagina, per the report.
“Sadly, these false allegations are a desperate cry for attention and are motivated by my client’s past rejection of the alleged victim’s unwanted advances. The fact that he’s been arrested and is being held without bond is a tragedy. He is not only presumed innocent but is, in fact, innocent,” Sheffield told Us on Friday.
He vowed, “I will work tirelessly to demonstrate to the District Attorney’s office the mean-spirited nature of these false allegations and to bring a close to this matter as quickly as possible. I’m asking the public not to presume the truth of these allegations and to give the families on both sides their space and privacy.”
KJ is one of the sons Zolciak, 48, shares with estranged husband Kroy, 40, whom she married in 2011. The exes, who split in 2023, are also parents to son Kash and twins Kaia and Kane. (Kroy also adopted Zolciak’s two eldest daughters, Ariana and Brielle, whom she welcomed during a previous relationship.)
Shortly after news broke of KJ’s arrest, Zolciak broke her silence and slammed the allegations made against her son.
“The allegations being made against my son are nothing short of reckless and deeply troubling. He categorically denies ever being involved with this woman or engaging in the conduct she has alleged,” the Real Housewives of Atlanta alum said in a statement to Us on Friday. “My son voluntarily took a polygraph examination regarding these allegations and passed. Additionally, an examination was conducted, and no DNA belonging to my son was found.”
Zolciak continued, “False accusations can have devastating consequences not only for the person being accused, but also for genuine survivors of sexual assault and abuse. Every legitimate allegation deserves to be taken seriously and investigated based on the facts and evidence. At the same time, no one should be publicly condemned based solely on an accusation. We remain confident that the facts and evidence will establish the truth, and we ask that people allow the proper process to take its course rather than spreading unproven allegations.”
If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673).

Wendy Williams Spotted on Rare Outing Amid Conservatorship Battle
Wendy Williams has been spotted on a public outing for the first time since February.
The former talk show host, 62, was spotted walking around New York City with shopping bags on Wednesday, August 19, as seen in photos obtained by Page Six. She sported a black T-shirt, high-rise jean shorts and black boots and carried a red handbag. Williams was accompanied by a male companion, with whom she was seen chatting as they walked through the streets.
During the outing, Williams was asked by a paparazzo what she had to tell fans about “what she is going through.”
According to the outlet, the TV personality responded, “I want out!”
Williams has been under a court-ordered financial and personal conservatorship in New York since May 2022. At the time, claimed to a New York Supreme Court judge that the former radio DJ was an “incapacitated person” who needed a “temporary guardian” to ensure her “affairs are being properly handled.”
Sabrina E. Morrissey, a New York-based attorney, was subsequently appointed as Williams’ legal guardian.
Williams has voiced her opposition to the guardianship and denied that she is cognitively impaired.
“They say that I need somebody to handle my accounts, and I don’t want that. I want all my money,” she said on Good Morning America in 2022. “I want to see all my money that I worked hard for my entire life. My entire life. I don’t lie, and I don’t cheat, and I don’t steal. I am an honest, hardworking person.”
In 2018, Williams revealed that she had been quietly battling Graves’ disease, a chronic autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland. Her battle with the illness led her to take a hiatus from The Wendy Williams Show in 2020. (The talk show was later canceled in 2022 amid Williams’ health struggles.)
Williams’ team later announced in 2024 that she had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and aphasia the year prior. FTD is a group of brain diseases that affect the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain and lead to problems with thinking and behavior.
Following her diagnosis, Williams was placed in a treatment center, where her family was unable to contact her.
Last year, Williams submitted paperwork to end her conservatorship in February 2025, but the filing was denied.
The following month, Williams told Page Six that she felt “better than good” amid her health and conservatorship battles.
“I am fabulous. I’m better than good, but have been accused to being otherwise,” she told the outlet in March 2025. “I am very much alive. I deserve freedom, darling.”
Her ex-husband, Kevin Hunter, also filed a $250 million lawsuit in June 2025 attempting to end the guardianship, claiming it had “become a weapon, not a shield.”
Hunter, who was married to Williams from 1999 to 2020, claimed that his ex was “being abused, neglected, and defrauded under the care of court-appointed guardians.”
Williams’ lawyers said they found Hunter’s lawsuit to be “detrimental” to the media personality’s interests, Us reported in July 2025.
“Moreover, [Williams] herself does not believe the complaint is in her best interest,” the paperwork read. (Hunter’s lawsuit was ultimately dismissed in October 2025.)
