The Bachelor's Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan Are Officially Dating. Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are finally a couple. After quarantining together for nearly a month, the former Bachelor and practicing lawyer are "officially dating," a source confirms to E! News. Explains our insider, "They have been pretty inseparable this last month and Peter is still quarantining with Kelley in Chicago. Peter had an idea that things would play out like this. He knew what he was doing when he first flew to Chicago. He was very interested in Kelley from the start, and after spending a lot of time with her, he decided he wanted to be exclusive." The couple first sparked romance rumors when they were spotted canoodling in Chicago last month. Now that the cat's out of the bag, many fans believe it's not long until Kelley and Pete share the news themselves. "They had a long talk about their relationship status, and Kelley wanted to be reassured Peter could be trusted," the source adds. "She was a bit hesitant at first. Peter knows Kelley is out of his league." Unlike some of Peter's prior love interests, we're told the reality TV star family "adores Kelley and they are excited for her to come to California once the quarantine is over." "They really don't have any set plans on how their relationship will work once 'normal life' resides, and are really just enjoying the downtime together right now," our insider shares. Peter and Kelly have had no problem sharing their day-to-day lives on TikTok as they quarantine with their friend Dustin. In addition, the two clearly adore each other, as they've shared in numerous interviews. It was only a matter of time before Kelley and Peter went official. In an interview with Nick Viall for Viall Files, Peter said, "Are we dating? No. Do I love spending time with her? Absolutely. We're not dating. Could I see that in the future? Yeah, of course. I'd be extremely lucky and very happy if that happened." Of course, Peter also said he wanted to be respectful of the other women he dated during the course of his season, including exes Hannah Ann Sluss and Madison Prewitt. Nonetheless, these contestants were none too pleased to hear of the relationship rumors surrounding Peter and Kelley. In an interview, Madi claimed that she and Kelley were "best friends" and "inseparable throughout the entire process," which left her feeling betrayed by both Kelley and Pete. But Pete says "there's more to the story" than meets the eye. However, he has yet to share the fully story, so fans will just have to wait and see. All in all, it's safe to say Pete's season of The Bachelor is the gift that keeps on giving. Us Weekly was first to report the news. (Eonline)

Joe Alwyn's Latest Post Proves He's In Quarantine With Taylor Swift. Joe Alwyn's latest pictures are purr-fect! The 29-year-old English actor took to his Instagram Stories to share a few adorable cat photos. Because who doesn't love pet content?! Aside from the swoon-worthy snaps, many eagle-eyed fans noticed that the fluffy feline looked like one of Taylor Swift's cats. Swifties know the Lover songstress is the proud mom to three fur babies: Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson and Benjamin Button. From the looks of Joe's images, it appeared he featured Taylor's new addition to her pet family, Benjamin. The cute snaps showed the little one hiding under a rug, inside a box and a brown paper grocery bag. In another Instagram Story, the Harriet actor shared a selfie of himself drinking what appeared to be white wine. With his latest social media posts, it's clear he's spending some quality time with his girlfriend during quarantine. Still skeptical? Taylor recently shared a photo of Olivia, and the same rug Benjamin was hiding under in Joe's post is identical. As of late, the two have been slowly sharing more insight into their romance. Back in February, the Cats star celebrated her boyfriend's birthday with an intimate dinner at the London hot-spot Bob Bob Ricard. According to a source, Ed Sheeran, Cherry Seaborn and other close friends joined the pair at the restaurant. Moreover, Taylor briefly opened up about her relationship in her Netflix documentary, Miss Americana. "I was also falling in love with someone who had a really wonderfully normal, balanced, grounded life," she expressed. During this time in quarantine, Taylor has been helping out with Coronavirus relief efforts. Earlier this month, she performed in the comfort of her home during the One World: Together At Home concert, which was put together by Lady Gaga, Global Citizen and the World Health Organization. Moreover, back in March the "Me!" singer donated money to her fans who were impacted by COVID-19. One of the Swifties to receive help, Holly Turner, told E! News: "I saw that she had just started following me on tumblr, so I was jumping around and screaming about that, and then I saw that the top post on Tumblr was about the fact that I was financially struggling and I thought, 'There's no way she's following me because of that.' Then I started losing my mind even more." It's only a matter of time before Taylor makes a cameo on her boyfriend's Stories with her cats. (Eonline)

"I just don't think [he] was the right person and I feel like I'm an incredible woman and I deserve someone so amazing. It just didn't feel right. I've worked way too hard to just give my life to someone. They have to be perfect." (Eonline)

He also invited Lahren to dinner, though she never responded. Fricke said the two eventually met in person nine months later and he "made the most out of that chance opportunity." (People)

CMT Star Cody Alan and His Dog Launch Virtual Pet Playdates with Country Stars and Their Pets. Cody Alan recently launched Teddy Time, a virtual pet playdate series featuring his golden retriever puppy. CMT radio host Cody Alan is finding a way for pets to socialize during the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Alan recently launched Teddy Time, a virtual pet playdate series that will air twice a week on his Instagram and Facebook pages. Country music artists and their pets will appear on the series, named after Alan's 7-month-old golden retriever puppy, Teddy. For one of the first episodes last week, Alan and Teddy welcomed singer RaeLynn and her dogs, Cash and Dolly (named for Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash, of course). "We bring the celebrities and their dogs to you," Alan explained at the start of the clip before he and RaeLynn launched into a discussion about their adorable pets. "He's the man in black," RaeLynn said of Cash and his all-black fur -- referencing Johnny Cash's nickname -- before sharing that the German shepherd is relatively young at only 11/2 years old. "So, you can totally relate to where I'm at right now with 7-month-old Teddy over here," Alan said of Teddy, who was chewing on a treat offscreen. "If I didn't give him a treat right now RaeLynn he would be all over me, he'd be all over this camera, so I gave him a treat just to keep him sedated for a moment." "When I saw you got a puppy I was the most excited because they are the best," the "Keep Up" singer responded. Holding their dogs up to the camera to see one another, Alan and RaeLynn scheduled a real life playdate for them for after the pandemic. On Tuesday, Alan had another set of guests, Brantley Gilbert and his dog, Bo. Future guests on Teddy Time include Mitchell Tenpenny, Brandon Lancaster, Nikko Moon, Midland's Mark Wystrach, Rachel Wammack and Hunter Hayes. (People)

Harrison Ford Breaks His Silence After Plane Incident Sparks FAA Investigation. Harrison Ford is once again the subject of a FAA investigation. In a statement to E! News an FAA spokesperson confirmed they are "investigating an incident in which the pilot of an Aviat Husky taxied across the runway at Hawthorne Municipal Airport Friday afternoon while another aircraft was performing a touch-and-go landing." They also assured that while the pilot committed an incursion "there was no danger of a crash." Said pilot is Ford, who released his own statement via his personal rep. "Actor and pilot Harrison Ford was involved in a runway incursion April 24th at the Hawthorne Airport. Mr. Ford crossed the airport's only runway in his aircraft after he misheard a radio instruction from ATC. He immediately acknowledged the mistake and apologized to ATC for the error," they stated. "The purpose of the flight was to maintain currency and proficiency in the aircraft." They also reiterated, "No one was injured and there was never any danger of a collision." Unfortunately, this isn't the first time Harrison has had a brush with the law. Over the years, the 77-year-old has been the subject of numerous investigations after being involved in crashes or near-crashes. According to NBC, Ford has been involved in numerous accidents on and off the road. In 1999, he crash-landed a helicopter during a flight training course. Then, a year later he made an emergency landing while flying with one other passenger. In the process, he clipped the wing on the tarmac, but he and the passenger escaped unharmed. In 2015 he also crashed a WWII era plane on a golf course after having engine troubles. His son Ben Ford shared that his dad was "battered, but ok." He survived the incident with a head wound. Despite the aforementioned incidents, the actor has been hailed for his piloting skills. (Eonline)

Kristin Cavallari claims Jay Cutler is already getting petty in their divorce by refusing to let her buy her own house, while also declaring he won't leave their current crib. Kristin reportedly filed new docs Wednesday, and accused Jay of withholding money from her -- money she claims he had no problem with her spending last fall. According to the docs, things were bad enough in the marriage late last year, that she started house hunting and found something she liked. Kristin claims Jay "never objected" to her getting her own place. She says she started the buying process, but stopped when she and Jay decided to give the marriage one more chance. That didn't last more than a few months ... Kristin says they realized "divorce was inevitable," and started talking about it in early March. Kristin claims the nastiness started later that month when they got back from the Bahamas. In the docs, she claims Jay told her he would not release the funds she needed for the house. She thinks that was his way of "punishing" her. It seems they also didn't see eye-to-eye on child custody. Kristin reportedly claims he tried to intimidate her into accepting a custody arrangement she deemed "unfavorable" ... and told her he wouldn't leave the Tennessee home they currently share. Kristin claims living under the same roof with Jay creates a bad environment for their 3 kids, because he's constantly trying to pick fights with her in front of them. As TMZ first reported ... Kristin's response to Jay's divorce filing accused him of "marital misconduct," but it wasn't about cheating. Her new filing makes it clear she thinks his decisions could cause "irreparable harm" to the kids. Kristin wants out of their house now -- she's asking the judge to force Jay to release "her portion of their funds," so she can buy her own pad. (TMZ)

'American Horror Story' star Leslie Grossman's husband is pulling the plug on their marriage ... TMZ has learned. The actress' longtime hubby, Jon Bronson, filed his divorce petition Tuesday in L.A. County Superior. Jon says they have one minor child ... their 13-year-old daughter, Goldie. No word yet on what he's looking for as far as child custody, spousal support or divvying up of assets. Leslie has more than 60 acting credits to her name and has starred in lots of network television shows -- like "Popular," "What I Like About You" and more. Leslie's probably got even more dough rolling in these days too -- she's already been on three cycles of 'AHS' and appears to be set for lots more with season 10 right around the corner. She's returned to play lots of characters thus far, like Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt, Margaret Booth and Meadow Wilton. She's also had roles on "Shrill" and "The Good Place." Jon and Leslie first got hitched in 2000. (TMZ)

Eminem came face-to-face with a home intruder who slipped past his own security -- which was sound asleep -- and the guy made it into his living room. Police sources, as well as sources connected to Em, tell TMZ ... the break-in went down earlier this month at around 4 AM at Em's Detroit-area home in a gated community. According to law enforcement ... the suspect, 26-year-old Matthew David Hughes, used a paving stone to smash a kitchen window and climbed inside the house. We're told an alarm went off but that didn't even wake security, but it sure woke Eminem, who had himself been sound asleep. Em got up and found the intruder in his living room. He screamed for security and that apparently did the trick, because the guards came a-runnin' and grabbed the guy. Police were called and rushed to the home ... Hughes was taken into custody and booked on charges of first-degree home invasion and malicious destruction of a building -- both felonies. It didn't appear the intruder was trying to steal anything ... seems he wanted a face-to-face with Em. Hughes is still being held on a $50k bond at the Macomb County Jail. (TMZ)

Joe Giudice's next chapter begins now. The Giudice family attorney confirms to E! News that Joe has been released from U.S. ICE custody and is currently on a plane to Italy. "We are very happy that Joe is free, but very sad that he is still not home where he belongs," James Leonard said in a statement. "On Oct. 10, 2018, an immigration judge determined that Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice's convictions for conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, constituted aggravated felonies and rendered him statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal under the Immigration and Nationality Act and ordered him removed," ICE said in a statement. "The Board of Immigration Appeals affirmed the immigration judge's decision. Mr. Giudice is a criminal recidivist, who has been convicted of six separate criminal offenses spanning 27 years, beginning in 1988 up until his incarceration for his most recent conviction. On Oct 12, he was successfully removed from the United States to Italy, as ordered by the court."
