On fatherhood, family and moving on
After spending the last few years off the radar in Pennsylvania, the notoriously private singer Zayn Malik recently gave his first interview in six years, making rare comments about split from One Direction and his supermodel ex, Gigi Hadid. He even went a step further, sharing a glimpse at his current relationships with Gigi and their 2-year-old daughter, Khai, who he said inspired his burst of personal sharing. “Co-parenting is good yeah, we have a really good relationship for Khai. She is the main importance. It’s going well, I think,” Zayn, 30, said on the latest edition of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast. “She didn’t choose [fame], that’s why we live here. I’m not shielding her from it because she’s going to get to an age where she has a certain amount of awareness and will know what’s going on,” he said.
Zayn also addressed the alleged altercation he had with Gigi’s mom, Yolanda Hadid, in 2021, just before he and Gigi called it quits, saying he opted not to to contest Yolanda’s harassment charges in the interest of protecting Khai. “Any sort of narrative online where my daughter was going to look back and read that and be able to read into it and it would just be something that was … There was no point. I believe I dealt with it in the best way. In an amicable, respectful way, and that’s all that needs to be said,” he explained.
And while the close, constant with 1D before their 2015 split left the singer feeling the band’s relationships had kind of run their course — “we got sick of each other,” he admitted — Zayn said fatherhood has done the opposite. “I have [her] 50% of the time and that time is so important,” he mused. “She is growing up so fast. When I’m with her, I don’t work. I spend the full day with her doing things she wants to do like painting, park, the zoo, and having fun. As an adult things go gray, and she has bought the color back for me for sure.”

Homophobic rant fallout
Dog the Bounty Hunter’s daughters are distancing themselves from homophobic comments their controversy-sparking father made during a Facebook Live video interview this week. Dog, aka Duane Chapman, was speaking to Christian ministry founder Sharell Barrera when he asserted, among other things, that “Jesus was not a sissy” and seemingly threatened to assault Bud Light’s former celebrity ad star, Dylan Mulvaney. Dog also referenced violence while ranting about Pride Month celebrations. “There’s two ways to rebuke (homosexual individuals): in Jesus’ name and then physically,” he said at one point, as his wife, Francie Frane supported her husband on camera.
Elsewhere in the video, Dog acknowledged he has a family member who is gay and who he “loves,” presumably meaning his daughter, Lyssa Chapman. Lyssa quickly called Dog out for his remarks and apologized to Dylan and the community in general, via TMZ.
“I’m honestly embarrassed to be mentioned on this hateful, disgusting, trash spewing out of my father’s mouth,” she wrote on Facebook soon after the video aired on Tuesday, July 11, according to Yahoo. “You all know I’m a daddy’s girl and I love my father. However, this crosses a line. I was not raised by this man, he was not this way until recently.” Citing an interview with Lyssa on Wednesday, TMZ reported she “would like to send her apologies to Dylan and the trans community as a whole” and said she “worries he’s watching too much cable news.” Her sister Bonnie Chapman addressed her dad’s remarks on social media. “Jesus loves everyone and would strongly denounce this non-accepting rhetoric,” she wrote, in part. “It is utterly repulsive to to advocate violence against our transgender community, and it is equally repulsive to invoke Jesus’ name in vain to support such views.”

Emmys debut
And all it took was a Scandoval. “Vanderpump Rules” earned its first-ever Emmy nominations on Wednesday, July 12, snagging nods for Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program and Outstanding Picture Editing For An Unstructured Reality Program for its Scandoval season, the first two nominations the series has seen in its decade-long tenure, according to Deadline. After the nominations were announced Wednesday, Bravo exec Andy Cohen cheered for the Vanderpump fam on Threads before reminding fans the show’s signature reality series has yet to be recognized by the Television Academy. “So pumped for Vanderpump Rules’ Emmy nomination… and tbh a little befuddled that the Housewives haven’t ever gotten one in all these years!” he wrote. “Congratulations to everyone who has poured their heart and soul into this show for the past decade!” Lisa Vanderpump gushed on Instagram.
Other surprise nominations included lots of love for “Daisy Jones and the Six,” while snubs for the likes of “Yellowstone” and “Only Murders in the Building” stars Selena Gomez and Steve Martin were unexpected in many critics’ books. Coming out way ahead was “Succession” with 27 nominations, “The Last of Us” with 24, “The White Lotus” with 23, and “Ted Lasso” with 21. The 2023 Emmy Awards air Sept. 18.
Mental health reveal
“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” star Rob McElhenney announced this week he’s been diagnosed with “a host of neurodevelopmental disorders,” telling fans he’ll share details including his prognosis on a new edition of the “Always Sunny” podcast he hosts with his co-stars, Charlie Day and Glenn Howerton. The actor, writer and producer shared the news on Twitter on Tuesday, July 11. “I was recently diagnosed with a host of neurodevelopmental disorders and learning disabilities! At 46!” tweeted Rob, now 48. “It’s not something I would normally talk about publicly but I figured there are others who struggle with similar things and I wanted to remind you that you’re not alone. You’re not stupid. You’re not ‘bad,'” he continued. “It might feel that way sometimes. But it’s not true.”
Neurodevelopmental disorders encompass a wide range of conditions including autism spectrum disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorders and more. Symptoms usually show up before a child “enters grade school,” according to the American Psychiatric Association’s DSM-5, and involve “developmental deficits that produce impairments of personal, social, academic, or occupational functioning.” Rob — whose “occupational functioning” has included writing, directing, producing and starring in his Emmy-nominated show — said the podcast episode “drops in 2 weeks.”
Will verdict
Nearly 5 years after Aretha Franklin’s death in 2018, a verdict in Michigan is poised to settle questions around her children’s estate battle. On Tuesday, July 11, a jury found handwritten notes from 2014 discovered in the Queen of Soul’s couch after her death do, in fact, constitute a valid will. The “Chain of Fools” Singer left no formal will behind when she died at age 76, according to the Associated Press. A 2010 will was found in a cabinet in her home after her death. Her sons Kecalf Franklin and Edward Franklin argued the 2014 notes should “override” the validity of the 2010 will, while her son Ted White II maintained the 2010 document was the only one that could be valid, the AP reported. The judge called for a status conference to be held next week as details including who will be named executor of the estate get hashed out.
