First up, a sad and serious update in the case tied to Matthew Perry.

Over in celebrity relationship “schedule drama,” Jennifer Aniston and hypnotherapist Jim Curtis are reportedly pressing pause on wedding plans. Word is her work schedule is so packed right now she’s prioritizing a new TV series — basically, the wedding RSVP is “check back later.”
Meanwhile, things are getting very “VIP security everywhere” for Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.

Kelce’s side potentially includes teammates, staff, and even WAGs, while Swift’s circle is reportedly much more tight-lipped — so basically, it’s “intimate ceremony” versus “Super Bowl afterparty.”
In a wild update, three suspects tied to burglaries at the homes of Kelce and Patrick Mahomes have been arrested in South America. Authorities say they were picked up in Argentina and Chile and are now facing extradition questions as investigators believe a larger theft ring is involved.
