"His number one priority here is protecting [their 2-year-old son], Ever," his rep told Entertainment Weekly in a statement March 18, adding of the alleged incident, "He knew there was a possibility it would come out, but he was not going to be the one to do that because he has always wanted a decent relationship with Taylor."

Olivia Rodrigo is setting the record straight on where she stands with Sabrina Carpenter, years after the two were linked to a rumored love triangle.

Speaking in a recent interview with British Vogue, the 23-year-old singer made it clear there's no bad blood between them. "I think she's great. I'm so happy for all of her success, too. I love the album she's put out," she said.

Rodrigo also addressed the speculation that has followed them since 2021, adding, "It's all love, though. I've talked to her many times."

The rumors began after Rodrigo released her breakout hit "Drivers License," which many believed was about her High School Musical: The Musical: The Series co-star Joshua Bassett. When Bassett was later linked to Carpenter, fans speculated she was the "blonde girl" referenced in the song.

Carpenter later released "Skin," which sparked further conversation online, with listeners interpreting some of the lyrics as a response. However, neither artist directly confirmed the speculation at the time.

Victoria Villarroel is opening up about the moment she realised her time working for Kylie Jenner had come to an end. The former assistant, who worked with the reality star for five years, said the shift happened during her final year on the job.

Speaking on the March 18 episode of the Better Half podcast, she explained how their relationship had naturally grown very close over time. Being around each other every day made it difficult to maintain a strictly professional dynamic.

"This is like year five," she said, noting how their bond had evolved beyond just work.

The turning point came during a simple moment at home. Jenner asked for her laptop from upstairs, and Villarroel hesitated. "Oof, who's gonna get that?" she recalled saying, laughing, before adding that she didn't want to go get it.

Miley Cyrus has opened up about the prospect of headlining the Super Bowl halftime show, admitting that the idea has always felt like "too much pressure." The pop star, 33, addressed the rumors in a cover story with Variety on March 18, explaining that the scale of the event makes it challenging to approach.

"I always think the Super Bowl feels like too much pressure," Cyrus said. "I would have to do the mental work of making it not about the Super Bowl, because then you can't help but go, 'It's millions of people, and it's the most-watched thing in the world.'"

Jordan Ngatikaura has filed for divorce from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Draper, bringing their five-year marriage to an end. According to Utah court records, the filing was made on March 19, just months after the couple publicly addressed challenges in their relationship.

In a statement, Jordan acknowledged the weight of the decision. "This has not been an easy decision and it comes with a heavy heart," he said. "I'm grateful for the shared memories and the lessons."

He added that while their relationship is coming to an end, his focus remains on their family. "While our paths are now moving in different directions, my priority remains my children and ensuring they feel loved, supported, and protected through this transition," he said. "I am committed to handling this next chapter with kindness and respect. I kindly ask for privacy and understanding as we navigate this as a family."

The couple share two young children together, and Jordan is also a father to a daughter from a previous relationship. Jessi has not publicly commented on the divorce at the time of reporting.

The split comes shortly after Jessi spoke about the state of their relationship following a previous separation. She revealed that they had spent about a year attending therapy, both individually and as a couple, after implementing a 90-day break.

"We've been doing that for about a year now since the separation happened," she said. "It's taught us both a lot about how we are as individuals and how we are in a relationship, and it's just kind of still a work in progress."
