Donna Air warning as ‘new pal’ embroiled in Hollywood’s ‘most toxic’ divorce

DONNA Air was all smiles as she enjoyed a night out with former Tottenham Hotspur vice-chairman and property tycoon multi-millionaire Paul Kemsley last month.

The former Byker Grove actress, 47, was recently spotted leaving the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles with the multi-millionaire Brit, 59.

Onlookers claimed the pair “seemed really cosy” while he was heard telling a fan not to interrupt as he was “on a f***ing date.”

After moving to the States last year to pursue new film and TV roles, Donna will no doubt by impressed by Paul’s impressive network of contacts and ability to open doors.

But The Sun can reveal that she may be in for a shock – as he is at the centre of one of Hollywood’s most toxic divorce battles ever.

Sources told how the property magnate’s split from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Dorit, who filed for divorce last April, has become “so brutal it makes the War of the Roses script look tame”.

And one warned: “I hope Donna knows what she’s getting into, because this divorce will be explosive. Dorit wants to destroy Paul and she will use every tool in her Gucci handbag to get what she wants.

“If I was Donna, I wouldn’t want to get caught up in it.”

Entrepreneur Paul – who is known as PK – and glamorous ex-wife Dorit have been locked in a poisonous battle since May 2024 when they decided to separate, and he moved out of their $6m mansion in Encino, California into a five star luxury hotel.

And the set of Real Housewives, which both have appeared on since 2016 as cast members, became the fighting ring in which the pair slugged it out, trading a series of vicious blows.

In perhaps the nastiest, in November 2024, Dorit branded her husband “a full-blown alcoholic” and told cameras he had “always” been a drinker.

She added: “Over the years, it’s gotten progressively worse, and little fights will turn into blow-ups. We would be in the gutter after a fight, screaming at one another. I don’t want that toxic energy around small children.”

Months after the episodes aired, in November, PK was pictured kissing Shana Wall outside Cipriani restaurant in Los Angeles and seemingly sounded the death knell for his nine-year marriage.

One day later, Dorit filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences and requested sole legal and physical custody of their two children, son Jagger, 12, and daughter Phoenix, nine. PK countered with a request for shared custody.

And the fight was to grow even nastier as time went on.

Just two months ago, Dorit claimed in court that her ex-husband was trying to force their kids into homelessness by refusing to maintain an informal agreement to pay the mortgage on their marital home in LA.

Court documents stated they were $6m behind on the payments – despite him earning “at least $2,000,000 a year”. It was also noted that he “has other income streams outside of the United States.”

PK then hit back that his ex-wife had blown $995,270 on “wardrobe related expenses” during a 14-month span between December 2024 and March 2026 – as the family faced the potential foreclosure of their home.

The filing included $69,000 in charges from Louis Vuitton, $69,000 from Chanel, $38,000 from Hermes, and $22,000 from Saint Honore that she racked up between October 30 last year and Jan 6.

The source continued: “Dorit’s shopping is out of control. Fame doesn’t suit some people and she became a bit of a diva after she joined the show. But it wasn’t that which caused her and Paul to break-up.

“The trouble started when they had a burglary, which she found very traumatic, and she was upset with him being away when it happened. She accused him of being absent when she needed him the most.”

In the terrifying ordeal, in 2021, three masked intruders broke to the couple’s home while she was sleeping and held her at gunpoint, threatening her life while her two young children were asleep in their own rooms.

She later recalled hearing them say: “Just kill her” as she prayed for her kids to stay asleep. The crooks ran off with over $1million in luxury handbags, watches, and jewelry.

The source continued: “She was badly traumatised, and they started drifting apart and being very mean to each other. She thought he was having affairs because he would often go missing, not answering his phone.

“He was spending a lot of time in London and she was thinking about hiring a private investigator, that’s for sure.

“Meanwhile for him, one of the worst blows came when she told the world he was an alcoholic after they had separated. That had an awful effect on him. To do that felt unforgivable.

“Now, she is demanding huge maintenance payments from PK, but he will argue that she earns more than him now and so she basically owes him. It’s definitely going to be explosive.”

Against such a poisonous backdrop, the source also warned that PK’s friendship with Donna, who has dated James Middleton and has daughter Freya with Damien Aspinall, will not go down well.

They went on: “Paul might not look like Robert Redford, but he is very generous – he showers women with gifts and fun nights. And he’s very charismatic and has a great sense of humour.

“He and Donna have been friends for ages and have become much closer of late.

“She always says she loves a man with a sense of humour and she finds Paul hilarious.

“He always says he put all his energy into turning Dorit into a TV star – he completely changed her style and the way she looked. If you look at the before and after pictures of her, there’s huge difference.

“To get Dorit the job on Housewives, he set up a dinner party with the show’s bosses, invited his most exciting friends and entrepreneurs, brought in a chef and spent thousands entertaining them all to land her the gig – and it worked.

“Paul saw the potential in her and he turned her into the star she is today.

“Over the years he has lost a lot of money and made a lot of money, but he’s always on the up. He always finds a way to get the deal done. He’s like a cat with nine lives – he always falls on his feet.

“But Dorit is out for revenge and his night out with Donna will only make her angrier and more bitter.

“Recently she has been saying: ‘I will show the world the real Paul Kemsley’ and she is certainly angry enough to really attack him. “This could be the most toxic divorce in Hollywood history.

“So far it’s making the War of the Roses script look tame.”

A spokesman for Donna last night said the couple were not dating and claimed Paul’s comment about a date was made “in jest”.

Mia Goth files to divorce Shia LaBeouf after almost 10 years

Horror star Mia Goth is ending her marriage to Shia LaBeouf just days short of their 10th wedding anniversary.

Goth, star of Ti West’s “X” trilogy, on Tuesday filed her petition to divorce “Peanut Butter Falcon” and “Honey Boy” actor LaBeouf in Los Angeles Superior Court. According to the petition, the estranged spouses married Oct. 10, 2016 but separated in July 2025. The petition confirms reports from earlier this year that the actors were on the outs.

Goth, 32, and LaBeouf, 40, share a 4-year-old daughter born March 2022, according to the petition. Neither representatives for the actors immediately responded on Wednesday to a request for comment.

The “Odyssey” actor filed her petition a day after LaBeouf’s ex-girlfriend FKA twigs brought her latest lawsuit against the former Disney Channel star to a close.

LaBeouf, who had an off-and-on relationship with Goth since their marriage, began dating FKA twigs, legal name Tahliah Barnett, in 2018. Barnett first sued LaBeouf in 2020, claiming she was subjected to frequent episodes of verbal and emotional abuse that escalated into physical assaults by the “Transformers” actor. She also accused LaBeouf of “knowingly infect[ing]” her with a sexually transmitted disease. The exes settled that case with prejudice last year but it returned to a legal spotlight in March.

The Grammy-winning “Eusexua” musician sued LaBeouf, alleging he “sought to silence her” from speaking out about his alleged abuse via an NDA which she claimed violated California law. Barnett on Monday notified the court that she and LaBeouf settled their case, noting that her ex “has agreed that the non-disclosure provisions (NDAs) contained” in the 2025 settlement “are terminated and void.”

LaBeouf faced additional legal turmoil for his arrests in February after his involvement in a Mardi Gras brawl. He pleaded guilty to three counts of simple battery in June.

Goth also faces legal issues. The British star was sued for battery in a 2024 lawsuit that accused her of “intentionally and willfully” assaulting and kicking an actor in the head while filming “Maxxxine” in 2023. Goth was sued alongside director West and movie studio A24. That case is ongoing and a jury trial is scheduled to begin April 17, 2028, according to a court order filed Monday.

Why did Celebrity Traitors’ Jerry Hall split with Rupert Murdoch and Sir Mick Jagger?

Model Jerry Hall will tonight find herself in some uncomfortable situations on Celebrity Traitors – but she should be used to navigating awkward social situations after her string of controversial romances

Model Jerry Hall will need to put her acting skills to the test on Celebrity Traitors tonight if she’s cloaked up and hoping to deceive her co-stars.

But the 70-year-old is no stranger to navigating awkward social situations after her numerous high-profile and controversial relationships. The Texas-born star was a long-term partner of Rolling Stones icon, Sir Mick Jagger, with whom she shares four children.

She was also married to American businessman Rupert Murdoch, who owns numerous newspapers worldwide and previously owned Sky. But why did she split from arguably two of the most powerful men in the public eye? Here, we look at Jerry’s relationships and the reasons they broke down.

Sir Mick Jagger

Jerry and Sir Mick first met in 1976 at a dinner party. At the time, she was engaged to British singer and Roxy Music frontman Bryan Ferry. Sir Mick was also married to Bianca Jagger at the time.

Just a year later, the couple began an affair, and Jerry eventually left Bryan. Later that year, Jerry seemed to be a positive influence on Sir Mick, encouraging him to quit both heroin and LSD. By 1990, they had tied the knot in a traditional Hindu wedding in Bali; however, they were not legally married.

Just two years later, though, their relationship was plagued by allegations of infidelity on Mick’s side. Despite working through their differences, things came to a dramatic end in 1999.

It emerged that Mick was expecting a child with Luciana Gimenez Morad, who later welcomed a son Lucas Maurice Morad Jagger. Jerry subsequently filed for divorce, with British courts declaring their 1990 marriage void due to a lack of legal registration.

The pair later came to a “mutually acceptable legal and financial settlement”. She later said that she found annulling their relationship rude, but remained on good terms with Mick. These days, the pair have a very close blended family.

Speaking to The Guardian in 2010, Jerry said: “Getting a divorce is always horrible, because you feel you’ve failed. Everyone hates to give up on a marriage. You think your family’s broken up.

“But we managed to keep the family quite strong and to still be friendly. Divorce is not the end of the world. It’s worse to stay in an unhealthy marriage. That’s a worse example for the children.”

Rupert Murdoch

In 2015, Jerry started dating Rupert after his sister and niece introduced them. By October of that year, the pair went public and were seen attending the Rugby World Cup final together in London.

Their relationship went full speed and they got engaged in January 2016. Rupert announced their news in the Births, Marriages and Deaths page of The Times newspaper, which he owns. He popped the question with a staggering 19-carat marquise diamond ring.

Just three months later, the pair tied the knot at Spencer House, followed by a bigger celebration at St Bride’s Church on Fleet Street, with Rupert saying he felt like “the luckiest and happiest man in the world” as their friends and family gathered to witness their big day.

But despite their relationship going from strength to strength, including the purchase of a sprawling $200 million cattle ranch in Montana in December 2021, things soon came to an end.

Fast forward to June 2022, and their marriage was over. Rupert emailed Jerry, informing her that the marriage was over and that she should now contact him only through his lawyers. The divorce was later leaked to The New York Times.

Just a few days later, Jerry officially filed for divorce in Los Angeles, citing “irreconcilable differences”. The divorce was finalised just a few weeks later, with legal representatives for both parties saying that they ” remain good friends and wish each other the best for the future”.

While details about their settlement haven’t been disclosed, it was reported that Jerry received tens of millions, as well as an £ 11 million Oxfordshire mansion, as part of the settlement.

Former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem files for divorce from her husband of 34 years

Hannah Schoenbaum and Sarah Raza

Former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has filed for divorce from her husband of 34 years.

Noem, who was tasked with leading President Trump’s immigration crackdown from January 2025 to March 2026 and previously served as South Dakota’s governor, is seeking a divorce from Bryon Noem in their home state. The two married in May 1992 and have three children.

The filing, made in April but posted online Monday, comes after questions arose earlier this year about the nature of Kristi Noem’s relationship with a top advisor. The complaint, filed in Hamlin County, notes “irreconcilable differences” as grounds for the divorce.

In a statement, Kristi Noem’s attorney confirmed she has filed for divorce and said she will reserve further comments for the legal process. Lawyers for Bryon Noem did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

A day before Noem was ousted from her post in Trump’s Cabinet, members of Congress questioned her about an alleged extramarital affair with Corey Lewandowski, a special government employee and one of the secretary’s lead advisors. He was Trump’s first campaign manager in 2016 and appeared to play an outsize role in Noem’s department, even though his position was supposed to have a limit on days worked.

Noem denied the allegations that they were having an affair, dismissing them as “tabloid garbage.”

Once a close ally to Trump, Noem became a liability for the Republican president as questions arose over her conduct following the shooting deaths of two protesters in Minneapolis at the hands of immigration officers. Noem characterized Renee Good and Alex Pretti, both U.S. citizens, as aggressors, contradicting videos from the scene and descriptions of their deaths from bystanders. She also faced criticism from fellow Republicans for her spending at her department.

Trump nominated Markwayne Mullin, then a U.S. senator from Oklahoma, in Noem’s place and made her a special envoy for the Shield of the Americas, a new security initiative focused on the Western Hemisphere.

Frankie Muniz says he’s living a ‘nightmare’ in wake of divorce

Frankie Muniz had a vulnerable moment on social media Friday, revealing he’s hit rock bottom following the announcement of his split from wife Paige Price.

The “Malcolm in the Middle” star announced he and Price were calling it quits after seven years of marriage in July, and now the actor is revealing he’s experienced some painful introspection in recent weeks.

“The last 6 weeks of my life have been a nightmare I’m praying to wake up from,” he wrote on Instagram. “Everything felt heavy, unclear, and like it was falling apart at the same time. I wouldn’t wish this season on anyone.”

He continued that despite the painful experience, “the unexpected gift in the middle of it is that I’ve had nowhere to hide.”

The actor-turned-race car driver said he’s spent the last several weeks reflecting and can now see the areas of his life where he thinks he can improve.

“I want to become a better version of me. Not the polished version I show the world … the actual one,” he wrote.

“I read that sometimes hitting rock bottom is the thing that wakes you up. It forces the changes you needed to make all along so you can live the best life possible. That idea has been sitting with me. In five years I believe I’ll look back at this exact low point and feel grateful for it, because the high I’ll be standing on then only exists because I went through this.”

He told his followers that this period isn’t the end of the story, but the catalyst for change.

“It’s the part where I start doing the work … the uncomfortable, unglamorous, necessary work. I’m choosing to treat this season as the foundation, not the finish line.”

Shortly after Muniz’s post, Price posted an Instagram story with a message that some followers speculated may be a response to the actor’s admission.

“Life is all about perspective. If you ask the grass, the zebra is the monster and the lion is the protector,” Price wrote.

Muniz is best known for his titular starring role in the beloved Fox sitcom “Malcolm in the Middle,” which ran for seven seasons in the early aughts. In April, the series returned for a four-episode reunion arc on Hulu starring returning fan favorites Bryan Cranston as Hal, Jane Kaczmarek as Lois and a couple of Malcolm’s TV siblings.

In 2006, when “Malcolm in the Middle” wrapped, Muniz transitioned away from acting and pursued race car driving.
