Halle Berry spent Sunday with her son, Maceo, before asking a Los Angeles judge to restore the parenting arrangement she previously shared with ex-husband Olivier Martinez. Her request, filed Monday, Oct. 5, seeks a return to their 2023 agreement for 50/50 custody, Entertainment Weekly reported.
A temporary restraining order issued Oct. 1 changed Berry's parenting time but allowed her to continue seeing her son during specified daytime hours. The order covered both Martinez and Maceo, according to records reviewed by PEOPLE.
Martinez sought protection after alleging that Berry physically attacked Maceo during a Sept. 26 dispute. Her attorney, Marina Beck, denied his account and called the filing "entirely meritless and deliberately misleading."
Berry, 60, was accompanied on the Oct. 4 visit by her fiancé, musician Van Hunt. They spent time together one day before Maceo's 13th birthday.
An eyewitness told PEOPLE that Berry chatted with Maceo at a Los Angeles Sky Zone before he joined an indoor soccer game. She and Hunt watched from nearby. When a fan approached for a selfie, Berry declined because she was spending time with her child. TMZ also published BACKGRID footage of the trio shopping at Best Buy that day.

Chris Rock said that his problem with "quote, unquote, wokeness" is that it leads to a world that is, in his opinion, less forgiving than it needs to be.
The comedian and "Misty Green" filmmaker stopped by the New York Times' "The Interview" series this weekend and said that while advocating for marginalized communities is great, it needs to come with forgiveness, a huge theme in his new film starring Rosalind Eleazar.
When asked by host David Marchese about the throughline forgiveness has in the film, Rock said that "you don't really realize if you love somebody until you have to forgive them," adding that somebody letting you down or betraying you, but still choosing to be around them, is what true love is.

"I have a friend that's going to be nameless that might have gotten canceled," Rock said. "Another friend of mine was like, 'How can you be friends with that person?' I was like, 'If you're only friends with your friends when they're good, they're not your friends.' If you've got a bunch of people that are only going to be there when you're good, you have no friends. That doesn't mean condoning abusive behavior; you can reprimand your friends. That's also part of friendship."
When pressed by Marchese, who said that everyone has to have a line at some point, the comedian held his ground.
"I'm a Christian, and God forgives," he said. "The problem with quote, unquote, wokeness — and don't get me wrong, it is great that marginalized people have a voice; it is great to advocate for anybody that feels marginalized — but the problem is we're in the Old Testament right now, and the Old Testament has no forgiveness. The Old Testament didn't work, so they had to write a remix called the New Testament."

A quiet pub lunch for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has created considerably more noise online. The Duke and ****** ss of Sussex were photographed holding hands while walking to a historic Cotswolds pub during their latest stay in Britain. Although the couple reportedly behaved like ordinary customers once inside, their photographed arrival quickly became the focus of a heated debate. Critics accused the Sussexes of importing a "Hollywood circus" into the picturesque English countryside, while others questioned why two private citizens grabbing lunch had become news at all.

Harry and Meghan were photographed heading to The Falkland Arms in Great Tew, Oxfordshire, on October 1, marking their first joint public outing in Britain since returning to the country. According to The Sun, the couple held hands as they approached the traditional 16th-century pub. Meghan wore an all-black ensemble with contrasting white shoes, while Harry dressed casually in jeans and a jacket. He completed his outfit with a Santa Barbara Fire Department baseball cap. Their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were reportedly at school during the outing. The couple apparently opted for hearty British dishes once inside. Meghan reportedly ordered gluten-free beer-battered haddock and chips with mushy peas and tartare sauce, while Harry selected chicken, ham and leek pie served with mashed potatoes, greens and gravy.

The cozy outing drew a considerably less welcoming response from some social-media users.

Meghan Markle's rumored acting comeback has reportedly been dismissed as a "PR stunt" after speculation that the ***** ss of Sussex would join "The Gentlemen" was seemingly put to rest.
Rumors of Markle's return to acting had intensified following reports that she and Prince Harry were planning to return to the UK. However, stars of Guy Ritchie's Netflix series have now seemingly shut down the speculation, clarifying that the "Suits" star is not joining the show after all.
"The Gentlemen" stars have seemingly dismissed speculation surrounding Meghan Markle's rumored acting comeback at the London premiere of Season 2. Vinnie Jones appeared to take a subtle jab at the ***** ss of Sussex, stating: "I think it's hot air. We've got a lot of pretty women in this series, so I'm not sure there's room for any more" (via Radar Online).
Theo James also addressed the speculation with his signature sense of humor. He quipped: "No. Prince Harry is playing one of my love interests. So that's the Meghan Markle thing." James later offered a more serious response, stating: "I think it's a spurious rumour. She'd fit in well because she's actually from the Royal Family, but I think the practicalities of that are impossible."
Meanwhile, other cast members appeared surprised that the rumor had made headlines, with several admitting they were unaware of the speculation. An industry source subsequently suggested that Markle's team may have been behind the reports, telling the outlet that there was growing skepticism over their origins.

Before Melissa Joan Hart played the supernatural student in "Sabrina the Teenage Witch," she starred opposite Calista Flockhart in the off-Broadway production "Beside Herself."
While starring in the 1989 production, a young Hart found an unexpected mentor in the "Ally McBeal" star, she tells USA TODAY.
"I was about 10, 11, and she was young. She was like 18," Hart says. "She used to have me come over to her house and do sleepovers and she'd give me her hand-me-down clothes. I watched the way she prepped for work."
Joe Pintauro's play "Beside Herself" follows a woman named Mary from four different stages of her life. Hart played a pre-teen Mary, while Flockhart played the role in her post-teen years.
In between shows, Hart and Flockhart would stop at New York's Bleecker Street Pizza for a slice. Hart also remembers taking notes on Flockhart's stretching routine and breathing exercises ahead of shows.

YouTuber Trap Lore Ross is contemplating whether to take a step back from social media following a series of confrontations outside the Los Angeles courtroom where Lil Durk's murder-for-hire trial is being held.
In a post shared on X Wednesday (Aug. 26), Ross, who has been providing real-time updates on the trial during breaks in the action, said he "might take a break from tweeting" before accusing Durk's team of "acting very unprofessional."
"Very disappointing and intimidating conduct towards the press in this case," he wrote, citing an alleged incident in which someone presumably ******* ociated with Durk screamed, "Delete the tweet," in his face.

The post came less than two hours after Ross claimed he was "getting bullied into deleting posts now."

Picture the Princess of Wales, and you'll likely imagine her signature long, flowing hair.
Since she first stepped onto the royal scene as Prince William's girlfriend in 2004, Princess Catherine has always had beautiful, glossy hair – always long and perfectly styled, tumbling down her back.
The future Queen's hair came under undeserved scrutiny earlier this summer, when royal watchers declared her ultra-long locks 'unprofessional' when it looked longer than ever at a reception for Cancer Research in early June.

HELLO! reader Carol commented: "That hair is just so unprofessional," which we vehemently disagreed with in the office. Though Princess Kate does appear to have the longest hair of a British royal in living memory, there's no rulebook that says members of the family have to have a certain length of hair to do their job.

Dolly Parton, known for her timeless hits, sparkling personality, razor-sharp wit and iconic image, was also a deeply committed philanthropist.
In fact, she donated so much of her money in her lifetime that some estimate she would have become a billionaire without her charitable giving.
The Grammy winner, after all, held the rights to wildly successful songs, a theme park and book **** les under her illustrious name.
"I try to leave my heart open, and my ears and my eyes," she told Consequence of Sound in 2023.
Her donations across the decades amount to countless millions. Since her death, her family has written: "In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton's Imagination Library".
