Blake Lively makes a strategic legal move by hiring a high-profile attorney known for representing Jeffrey Epstein’s victims as her trial against Justin Baldoni approaches. Hilary Duff drops a steamy new single that’s turning heads amid ongoing headlines surrounding her former celebrity mom group.

Shannen Doherty ’s ex-husband, Kurt Iswarienko, is seeking to block the court’s ruling for a substitution of a trustee in the actress’ trust.According to the filing, Iswarienko argued that his and Doherty’s divorce should not have received an official judgement from the courts due to Doherty’s death on July 13, 2024 — which means, the court should also be unable to make a ruling on the substitution.

John Mellencamp says daughter Teddi's 'going through hell' as he reveals harrowing new details on cancer battleHe also claims that the trustee of the Shannen Doherty family estate, Christopher Cortazzo, has not adequately shown that he has been granted the authority by the trust to introduce the motion to the court in the first place. Cortazzo filed documents on Nov. 24 seeking to become the successor in interest to the “Charmed” star’s estate in order to push the judgement between her and Iswarienko. In the filing, Cortazzo accused Iswarienko of not following through on the couple’s divorce agreement in which he agreed to list their $1.5 million home in Dripping Springs, Texas — which they shared until an unspecified date.The move comes after Doherty’s estate accused Iswarienko of not following through on their divorce agreement, which was signed on July 13, 2024.They accused the photographer of not selling the couple’s $1.5 million Texas home as agreed and of withholding $50,000 owed to the estate.The estate also reportedly accused Doherty’s ex of failing to return Doherty’s property and withholding over $50,000 that he allegedly owes the estate.
