The love story between Anderson .Paak and his wife, Jae Lin, have hit a sour note. According to reports, the Grammy winner filed documents to divorce Lin last week at a Los Angeles court after 14 years of marriage. An official separation date was not listed in the filing. While the “Smokin’ Out The Window” crooner and his ex have maintained a low profile throughout their relationship, it appears the door won’t be left open for a reconciliation.
The Silk Sonic star has petitioned to take spousal support off the table for Lin. He is also requesting they share joint and legal custody of their two sons, Soul Rasheed, 13, and Shine Tariq, 6, along with scheduled visitation.

Rapper and entrepreneur Sean “Diddy” Combs has withdrawn his lawsuit against Diageo as part of a settlement with the London-based spirits giant. Combs and Diageo “have now agreed to resolve all disputes between them,” the two parties said in a statement released Tuesday. Diageo is now the sole owner of Ciroc vodka and DeLeon tequila, two brands Combs had promoted in the past, and has no business relationship with Combs going forward. No further details of the settlement were released.
Combs sued Diageo last May, saying the company didn’t make promised investments in Ciroc and DeLeon and treated them as inferior “urban” products. Combs, who signed a deal to promote Ciroc in 2007 and purchased DeLeon with Diageo in 2013, said the neglect worsened after Diageo bought two competing tequila brands: Don Julio in 2014 and Casamigos in 2017. Diageo owns more than 200 brands, including Guinness beer and Tanqueray gin.

José Mourinho has left Serie A side Roma with immediate effect, the team announced on Tuesday, hiring club legend Daniele De Rossi as his interim replacement until the end of the season. Mourinho’s contract was up at the end of the season, but following their 3-1 defeat to AC Milan on Sunday and with the club in ninth in Serie A, the owners and the manager have parted ways.
It brings an end to Mourinho’s spell at the club, which started in May 2021 and saw him win the Europa League title in 2022 and reach the Europa League final last season. Mourinho’s three years at Roma peaked with them winning the Europa Conference League title against Feyenoord in Tirana. It was their first trophy in 11 years and their first European final since 1991.
