Their relationship imploded in real-time for the world to see, but there are some fans who hope that Tamar Braxton and David Adefeso somehow return to one another. Last summer, Tamar was hospitalized following a suicide attempt, and not long after he released, she and her fiancé Adefeso made headlines over an alleged physical altercation. He accused her of domestic violence and she denied his allegations, and soon, the couple put their relationship behind them.

Recently, Tamar tweeted that she would one day meet the man for her, and a fan told Braxton that they wanted to see her back with Adefeso. “Maybe God can fix that,” the person wrote. The reality star replied, “He was cheating with his then assistant now cfo since 2019 Jessica [upset side-eye emoji].. God fixed it.”

Adefeso didn’t appreciate his ex-fiancée publicly accusing him of having an affair, and according to TMZ, he got his attorneys to write up a formal cease and desist letter. Adefeso denies that he cheated with his former assistant and claimed he never stepped out on Braxton. He accused her of “[damaging] his reputation” and wants Braxton to delete her tweet. However, it’s still up and it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.

The end of their relationship was volatile as Adefeso filed for a restraining order against his ex but that was dismissed earlier this month. He has accused the singer of assaulting and threatening to kill him. Tamar denied that she was violent with Adedfeso.

Another tragedy reportedly involving a mass shooting has occurred in California. As America has poised itself for reopening as vaccines become more readily available, the United States has been plagued with an increasing amount of violence. Within the last two weeks, we’ve experienced the Atlanta spa shootings, the Colorado supermarket shooting, three shooting incidents in one evening near the same location in Virginia Beach, and learned of several injuries in a mass shooting in Washington, D.C.

On Wednesday (March 31), reports state that another shooting took place in the city of Orange at a business complex. The investigation is obviously ongoing, but it’s reported that officers descended on the scene after receiving a call about gunfire. The incident was still in motion when officers arrived and a witness who lived in an apartment complex nearby told KTLA News that he heard “seven to ten gunshots within a couple seconds.”

An officer opened fire on the gunman, striking the person, and it’s reported that they are in critical condition. Four people were murdered during the tragic incident, including a child. The age of the youngest victim has not yet been shared. A woman was rushed to the hospital and is stated to be in critical condition.

A witness named Cody Lev claimed that he was at his home near the location when he heard shots, but he stated he “heard a series of gunshots, spaced out by about 40 minutes, before police responded.” The identity of the shooter has not been revealed at the time of this publication. It is also unclear if this is a random mass shooting or if the perpetrator knew his victims.

If we were to believe Michael Rapaport’s screenshot revelation at face value, one would think that Kevin Durant is unhinged. An argument that looks to have started back in December reared its ugly head this week after Rapaport uploaded screenshots of a DM conversation with the NBA star. In it, Durant was upset that Rapaport continued to criticize him publicly, and then, Durant seemed to taunt him over a lawsuit. Insults were slung from Durant as he called for the actor to meet up with him face-to-face, but according to Durant, this is normal for the relationship he has with Rapaport.

A Twitter user wrote that Rapaport was scared of Durant and that’s why he decided to go public with their private conversation. “Me and mike talk CRAZIER than this on the regular and today he’s pissed….My bad mike, damn!!” Durant replied. The baller even slid in Rapaport’s comments. “I WOULD NEVER FIGHT MIKE… THE PORTNOY THING WAS TOO FAR I SEE…..my bad I apologize.”

In a separate comment on the same post, Durant added, “Wow u acting brand new now?? We been talking like this for years and u get serious today. Wowww. Smhhh.” Meanwhile, since calling out his former friend, Rapaport has dedicated his Instagram page to the Brooklyn Nets star. The actor posted a video clip of him and Durant during happier times and in the caption, he added, “A long time ago we used to be friends @easymoneysniper but you let your insecurities ruin it all @deancollins.”

His antics have often caused him to trend on social media, but Wednesday’s (March 31) viral video caught the public off guard. Tom Hanks’s son Chet Hanks is known for dropping island accents and declaring we’re entering a “White Boy Summer,” but his personal life hasn’t been so carefree. We previously reported on Hanks and his ex-girlfriend Kiana Parker engaging in a physical altercation months ago. A video that was allegedly taken after the argument was shared online and in it, Hanks accuses his ex of attacking him with a knife as she denies the claim, even going so far as to ask someone off-camera if that was what occurred. The person agreed with her.

More information has been shared about the fallout from their breakup, and The Huffington Post reports Parker was granted a temporary protective order against the 30-year-old actor. Court documents reportedly show that Parker accused Hanks of being “physically and verbally abusive for months.” The two began dating sometime last year and were cohabitating.

PEOPLE reports that earlier this month, Hanks filed a lawsuit against Parker and alleged that she attacked and stole from him “in connection with a violent incident on Jan. 8.” Hanks claims that he ended their relationship after he confronted Parker about the alleged theft. Parker, in turn, said in court documents that the alleged abuse she endured began as early as October 2020. 

Parker stated that in January she decided to end her relationship with Hanks and went to their home to move her things out. She accuses her ex of attempting to attack her with a knife so she hit him with a pot and ran off before calling the authorities. However, she said he left before they responded to the scene. Hanks told a different story; he said she arrived at the home with three men, one armed with a firearm, and Parker attacked him with a knife before hitting him with the pot.

The Derek Chauvin trial is in full swing and it has not only reignited conversations about the death of George Floyd but police brutality, in general. In the first days of Chauvin’s trial, witnesses have taken the stand to testify to what they saw occur and some broke down recounting Floyd’s final moments as they begged Chauvin to stop kneeling on his neck. The public has taken to social media to share their stories of run-ins with law enforcement, and on a recent episode of The Mix, Romeo Miller told his tale.

“The most recent time, I was at UCLA,” said Miller. “UCLA, you get pulled over over there, you better have that camera recording ’cause they don’t play no games. But the guy pulled me over at gunpoint. Black cop. And he was like, is this a stolen vehicle. I’m like, bro, relax. Just come check out my registration and get my driver’s license.”

Romeo claims the cop repeated himself and asked if the car was stolen. “And then, when he saw it was me, [he said], ‘Oh, Romeo Miller. Oh, you good. I thought you was just some random Black dude.” His co-hosts were in disbelief. “The scary thing for me is, it’s scary because my brother—I don’t care, you don’t have to be no random Black dude. My brothers ain’t famous. They bigger than me. They six-four, six-five.”

Miller chastised those in law enforcement who are “intimidated” by the presence of Black men. Check out the clip below as shared by AllHipHop.
