Olivier Martinez reportedly left a Los Angeles courtroom during a hearing in his ongoing custody dispute with former wife Halle Berry on Tuesday, 20 October. The proceedings concern their 13-year-old son, Maceo, and allegations of abuse that Berry has denied.

Martinez, 60, was described in reports as appearing agitated as he left the courtroom alongside his lawyer, Patrick Baghdaserians. The pair reportedly stepped out after a discussion and returned a short time later. Reports also alleged that profanity was heard during the exchange.

Martinez’s lawyer disputed suggestions that the actor had walked out in frustration. He said they had received permission to take a brief bathroom break and maintained that Martinez was satisfied with how the proceedings were going.

The incident occurred during a wider dispute over the former couple’s son. On 1 October, a judge granted Martinez a temporary domestic violence restraining order on behalf of himself and Maceo, restricting Berry’s contact with the teenager while the case proceeded.

In his court filing, Martinez alleged that Berry physically harmed Maceo during an incident at her home on 26 September. He claimed she put her hands around the teenager’s neck and choked him. Martinez also raised concerns about previous interactions between mother and son.

Berry denied physically abusing Maceo and disputed Martinez’s account of the September incident. She described what happened as playful roughhousing after her son took her phone, rejecting the allegation that she had choked him.

The competing accounts have not been established as findings of fact. The temporary order does not, in itself, prove that Martinez’s allegations are true.

Maceo testified on Monday, 19 October. The courtroom was closed during his testimony to protect the teenager’s privacy, and the contents of his evidence have not been made public.

Berry also testified on Tuesday, 20 October, as the hearing continued. A member of Maceo’s school staff was expected to give evidence about concerns raised regarding his behaviour at school. Martinez was also scheduled to testify.

Berry’s 18-year-old daughter, Nahla Aubry, whose father is model Gabriel Aubry, submitted a court declaration stating that she had never witnessed Berry physically abusing Maceo.

Martinez is seeking sole legal and physical custody of Maceo, while Berry wants to restore their shared-custody arrangement, established when their divorce was finalised in 2023.

Berry and Martinez married in July 2013 and welcomed Maceo later that year. They announced their separation in October 2015, although their divorce took several years to conclude. They have continued to share parental responsibilities since the end of their marriage.

The hearing will determine how the custody arrangements proceed as the court considers the evidence and the competing accounts of the September incident. Martinez’s reported departure from the courtroom has drawn attention, but the central issue remains the dispute over Maceo’s care and the allegations made by both sides.

Kylie Jenner Is Reportedly ‘Jealous’ Kendall Could Get Engaged Before Her

Published

Kylie Jenner is reportedly keen to get engaged to Timothée Chalamet, but an alleged difference in their marriage plans is said to be causing frustration as speculation grows about her younger sister Kendall Jenner’s relationship with actor Jacob Elordi.

According to a report published on 21 October, an unnamed insider claims Kylie is ready for marriage and has made her wishes clear to Chalamet. The actor, however, is reportedly not ready to propose.

The same source claims people close to the two couples believe Kendall and Elordi could get engaged before Kylie and Chalamet, despite Kylie and Chalamet having been together for longer. The possibility is reportedly causing jealousy and frustration for Kylie.

“Even though Kylie and Timothée have been together much longer, people in their inner circle actually see Kendall and Jacob getting married first, and it’s causing some jealousy and frustration for Kylie,” the insider claimed.

Neither Kylie nor Kendall has publicly confirmed the reported tension, and the claims remain unverified.

Kylie and Chalamet were first romantically linked in April 2023. Although their relationship has attracted considerable attention, they have generally kept details of their private life out of the public eye.

The insider claims Kylie has told Chalamet that she sees marriage in their future but is not issuing an ultimatum. Instead, she reportedly hopes he will be ready to propose soon.

“She’s not giving him ultimatums or demanding a ring, but she’s definitely making her feelings known and hoping he’ll get there sooner rather than later,” the source said.

Chalamet, 30, is reportedly not ready to take that step. According to the insider, he remains committed to Kylie, 29, but a proposal in the near future could come from pressure rather than genuine readiness.

Neither Kylie nor Chalamet has publicly confirmed the reported disagreement over marriage plans.

Kendall’s reported relationship with Elordi has become part of the engagement speculation. The pair were linked earlier in 2026 and reportedly made their relationship more public during a trip to Australia in June.

The insider described Elordi, 29, as more certain about his future with Kendall, 30, than Chalamet is about his own marriage plans. The source also claimed Kendall and Elordi’s relationship is progressing more quickly.

“Jacob is completely all in with Kendall,” the insider said, adding that he genuinely feels he has found the right person.

The source contrasted the two couples, describing Kendall and Elordi as more serious about their future together, while Kylie and Chalamet reportedly have a more relaxed relationship.

These descriptions come from an unnamed source and have not been independently confirmed. Neither Kendall nor Elordi has announced an engagement, and there is no public confirmation that they intend to marry soon.

Before dating Chalamet, Kylie was in a relationship with rapper Travis Scott. The pair began dating in 2017 and share two children: daughter Stormi, born in February 2018, and son Aire, born in February 2022.

Their relationship included periods of separation before they split in January 2023. They never married.

Kylie and Chalamet have been linked since 2023, making the reported difference in their expectations about marriage a focus of the latest speculation. However, the claim that she is jealous of Kendall’s possible engagement remains unconfirmed.

For now, neither Kylie and Chalamet nor Kendall and Elordi has announced an engagement. Whether either couple will marry, and when, remains unknown.

Kaia Gerber has paid tribute to her older brother, Presley Gerber, in an emotional statement recalling their childhood bond and the pain of losing him at 27.

The 25-year-old model and actress shared the tribute on Instagram on October 18, posting childhood photographs and a video of the siblings alongside a lengthy letter addressed to Presley, whom she called “Prez”.

“I don’t have the words. And maybe the tiny mercy is that we didn’t need them all along,” she wrote, reflecting on her struggle to make sense of his death. She also questioned what she could learn from his absence after describing him as her “ultimate teacher”.

Kaia remembered Presley as someone who continued to believe in people even when they treated him unkindly. She described his response to cruelty as one of confusion and curiosity, rather than anger.

One of the most revealing passages in her letter concerned a childhood memory. Kaia recalled being frightened before having her ears pierced, so Presley went first to help her feel less afraid. She remembered how he had always taken the lead, before reflecting on the moment she held the earring removed from his body after his death.

“I really f*cking wish you hadn’t gone first this time,” she wrote.

Kaia also described the difficulty of adjusting to a life in which she could no longer call her brother or share things with him as they once had. “I am learning how to love you when I cannot see you,” she wrote, acknowledging that she did not yet know how to navigate that absence.

She ended the tribute by reaffirming her enduring love for Presley, writing that she had been born loving him and would die loving him. She added that even knowing the grief she would eventually face, she would choose to be his sister all over again.

Her message came as their parents, supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber, also publicly mourned their son. In a family statement shared on Instagram, they said they were heartbroken and described Presley as a kind and vulnerable person who was loved by many. They thanked those who had reached out to support them.

Presley died on September 20 at a rehabilitation facility in Santa Monica, California. He was 27. Santa Monica police investigated his death as a suspected overdose, while the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner said the official cause and manner of death had been deferred pending further testing. The cause has not been officially confirmed.

Presley had previously spoken publicly about his struggles with addiction and mental health. Through social media, including a series called Mental Health Mondays, he discussed his experiences in the hope that others facing similar difficulties would feel less alone.

In Vogue’s September 2026 issue, published shortly before his death, Kaia discussed how her brother’s struggles had affected their family. She said she had come to see him as someone who encouraged them to be more open about difficult experiences. She also reflected on how trying to hide such struggles could make a person feel that their family was ashamed of them.

Her latest tribute offered a more personal account of their relationship, centred on the memories they shared and the brother she had looked to throughout her childhood. For Kaia, the task now is to find ways to maintain that connection while coming to terms with his death.

Taylor Swift returned to Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, October 18, to support Travis Kelce as the Kansas City Chiefs faced the Los Angeles Chargers. The singer watched from a suite alongside WNBA star Caitlin Clark and musician Este Haim, with the group cheering on Kelce during Kansas City’s 22-6 victory.

Clark, who plays for the Indiana Fever, is a longtime Chiefs fan. Growing up in Des Moines, Iowa, she followed Kansas City partly because of her father’s support for the team. She previously joined Swift at Arrowhead Stadium in January 2025, when the Chiefs faced the Houston Texans in the NFL play-offs. The two celebrated as Kansas City secured a place in the next round.

Sunday’s game also brought a family reunion of sorts. Swift was photographed embracing Kelce’s mother, Donna Kelce, in the suite, where Clark and Haim were also watching the match. Swift has attended several Chiefs home games this season as she continues to support her husband.

Her appearance in Kansas City followed a busy Saturday in Los Angeles. Swift attended the Academy Museum Gala on October 17, where she wore a Dior gown before performing for guests. The event honoured filmmaker John Carpenter, actor Colman Domingo and actress Charlize Theron.

The trip marked a return to the Chiefs’ stands after Swift’s previous appearance at their September 20 game against the Indianapolis Colts. She had also attended the team’s season opener against the Denver Broncos on September 14. Sunday’s win over the Chargers extended Kansas City’s successful run at home.

For Clark, the game offered another chance to watch a team she has supported since childhood. For Swift, it was an opportunity to cheer on Kelce after a high-profile evening in Los Angeles. The singer’s appearance with Clark and Haim brought together friends from music and sport for an afternoon of NFL action.
