Blake Griffin has reached a truce with baby mama Brynn Cameron in their nasty custody fight -- striking a deal on child support payment and custody right before they were set to go to trial.
Blake and Brynn had 2 children together during their 8-year relationship -- and were supposed to get married back in 2017 ... until he called things off at the last minute and started dating Kendall Jenner.
Brynn went after Blake hard in court docs -- claiming Griffin left her basically homeless and cash-strapped when he bolted.
Our sources tell us a trial was scheduled to begin Wednesday -- but, the two sides were able to privately hammer out an overall custody settlement ... and now the trial is off.
We're told the two have agreed on joint custody on the children. They're both committed to co-parenting in a friendly manner for the sake of the kids.
As for Blake's monthly payments -- there's a report he'll have to fork over $258,000 per month ... but, we're told that number is wrong.
The terms of the settlement are confidential, but we're told the monthly payment is "significant."
As one source puts it, "Both sides are happy" and they're ready to move forward with their lives.

Jenelle Evans' Ex Road Rage Shows She's Dangerous ... I Want Custody of Our Kid!!!
Jenelle Evans keeping a loaded gun in her car -- in reach of her children -- proves she's not using sound judgment as a parent and doesn't deserve to have custody ... so says her ex and 2nd baby daddy.
We spoke with Nathan Griffith -- who shares 4-year-old Kaiser with Jenelle -- and he tells us he's incredibly concerned for his kid's safety in light of Jenelle's recently aired road rage incident on "Teen Mom 2."
He believes the video shows her kids are being raised in an unstable and hostile environment ... so his fight to get custody of Kaiser is well justified.
There's also this ... Nathan actually sides with Jenelle's husband, David Eason, who berated her for following someone home and confronting them. Nathan says it could've turned into a bloodbath, which is true ... 'cause the other driver told us he was armed.
Bottom line for Nathan ... Jenelle's apparent lack of proper gun safety around her 8-year-old son tells a much bigger story -- she's unfit as a parent, and his son would be better off with him.

Floyd Mayweather Gets Butt Kicked In Court ... Over Katie Couric Interview
Floyd Mayweather just got ripped a new one in appeals court -- with a panel of judges saying there's a ton of evidence showing the boxer lied to Katie Couric in a '15 interview about his domestic violence case.
Remember, Floyd's ex, Josie Harris, is suing Floyd for defamation ... claiming the boxer fudged the facts and lied about her to Couric when discussing his 2010 domestic violence arrest.
In the interview, Floyd told Couric he did NOT "kick, stomp and beat someone" ... and explained, "Did I restrain a woman that was on drugs? Yes, I did."
Floyd was convicted in that case ... after her son told cops he saw Mayweather "hitting and kicking her." An emergency room doctor also noted Harris had multiple contusions to the head, face and left forearm.
Floyd had filed court docs to get Josie's lawsuit thrown out -- but, a California appeals court just ruled her defamation case CAN move forward because the evidence appears to be in her favor. Here's the opinion from one of the judges on the panel ...
"Since this evidence is unequivocally at odds with the assertion that Mayweather was simply restraining a drug-addled Harris by only twisting her arm, it may reasonably be inferred that Mayweather acted with malice or reckless disregard of the truth during the Couric interview."
Long story short ... Josie now has the green light to move forward with her case -- and it could cost Floyd a LOT of money.

Ella Rose I'm Rooting For Green!
Ella Rose is about to overheat ... her phone that is, if she doesn't put it away.
Julian Edelman's baby mama hit the beach in Santa Monica during L.A.'s heatwave. Don't worry ... she managed to cool off in the Pacific sans her phone.
With her choice in bikini color, you'd think Ella would be rooting more for the Seahawks or Packers instead of the New England Patriots, where Edelman plays wide receiver ... but, it's hard to think football at all when Ella hits the sand.

Cardi B Nicki Did Not Buy $5k Gift Basket For Kulture's Birth

EXCLUSIVE

Cardi B caught wind Nicki Minaj had reportedly bought her a pricey gift basket from Petit Trésor -- but, as it turns out, it never happened ... TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell us Cardi's team reached out to the famed WeHo baby boutique after reading a report claiming Nicki had snapped up a $5,000 basket and sent it to Cardi after hearing she'd given birth to Kulture.
We're told Cardi's camp called Petit -- there's only one location -- looking for a tracking number for Nicki's gift, because Cardi's been flooded with presents. However, they were told by the store's owner ... Nicki had NOT purchased anything.
We also called the store, and an employee confirmed neither Nicki nor anyone on her team bought any items from them.
The gift basket would have been an interesting olive branch because Nicki and Cardi were beefing earlier this year -- but no dice.
The good news ... Cardi's not exactly hurting for gifts or pricey baby gear.

Cardi B It Was Poppin' at The Hair Salon ... Before I Finally Popped
Cardi B clearly wanted to make a good first impression before meeting her first child ... hence her visit to a hair salon.
The "I Like It" rapper hit up Sula's Dominican Hair Salon in Atlanta on Monday ... just one day before giving birth to Kulture Kiari Cephus. Cardi made it clear on social media pregnancy was taking its toll, but she wasn't about to let it stop her from getting her hair did.
Gotta hand it to Cardi ... that's some dedication to her hair game, getting an 11th hour blowout before going into labor. We're guessing she'll have plenty of help caring for Kulture, so she can still hit the salon.
As we reported ... Cardi and Offset named their baby girl after two Migos albums and his real name -- Kiari Cephus.
Congrats!

'Jersey Shore' Ronnie TGIF My Baby Mama ... And 'F' is for Forgive
'Jersey Shore' star Ronnie Ortiz-Magro is truly a man of forgiveness -- breaking bread with his baby mama and friends -- like their bloody domestic dispute never even happened.
Ronnie was at a Friday's in NJ Thursday with Jen Harley, their 3-month-old daughter and several friends. As we reported, Jen flew up from Vegas a few days ago to spend the Fourth of July holiday with Ronnie.
A witness tells us the couple seemed calm, cool and relaxed ... and Jen mostly tended to their kid.
TMZ broke the story -- Jen was arrested for domestic battery last month in Vegas -- after she allegedly attacked Ronnie in their car and dragged him out the passenger's side.
Prosecutors ultimately decided to drop the case -- due to lack of evidence. Seeing as how they're hanging out again, doesn't seem like Ronnie would be in a hurry to testify against her, either.

Jeremy Meeks & Chloe Green Parenting Goes South (of France)
Jeremy Meeks and Chloe Green called in some reinforcements for their new baby, jetting off to the French Riviera for a group date night to kick off the week.
The new parents were hanging with friends Monday night in Monaco in what appears to be their first time out together solo since their son, Jayden, was born last month. Among the crew ... Lewis Hamilton and Rita Ora, as well as English reality TV star Vas J Morgan.
Chloe and Jeremy live in the U.K., so getting together with their compadres in a neighboring country probably wasn't all that difficult. She is the heiress to the Topshop fortune after all, and Jeremy doesn't seem to mind international travel on a moment's notice either.
Mind you, the "Hot Felon" was just in L.A. picking up his 9-year-old son from his previous marriage to Melissa Meeks after striking a new custody agreement in their divorce. He was spotted with Jeremy Jr. just this past Thursday at a local Target.
Parenting and partying from sea to shining sea ... all in a week's work.

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro's 3-month-old daughter has been primarily in his care since the violent car dragging incident with his baby mama ... and we're told he's got custody on his mind.
Sources close to the 'Jersey Shore' star and Jen Harley tell TMZ ... their baby girl, Ariana, has been staying with him since the ex-couple's nasty fight last weekend in Vegas, for which Harley was arrested for domestic battery.
We're told Ronnie's mother has been helping with the babysitting and they are still allowing Jen to see Ariana ... but Ronnie and Jen aren't talking much unless it's about their daughter's needs.
Our Ronnie sources say he's considering getting a family attorney involved because, so far, there's absolutely no formal custody arrangement. We're told Ronnie wants 50/50 joint custody ... something he'd probably get.
We broke the story ... Harley told police Ronnie hit her multiple times during Sunday's domestic dispute, but cops determined she was the primary aggressor and arrested her.
According to the police report, both sustained minor injuries ... but photos of the vehicle afterward show it was a pretty bloody mess.

Drake Finally Fesses Up To Being A Dad ... On New Album
Drake has finally come clean -- admitting he's fathered a son -- even rapping about the paternity test he took to know it was for certain.
Drizzy released his album, "Scorpion," Friday and, as expected, it's full of glimpses into the rapper's personal life. His song "Emotionless" is the first to acknowledge his secret son Pusha T exposed in a diss track last month.
"I wasn't hiding my kid from the world. I was hiding the world from my kid."
The rapper reveals he's taken a paternity test for the kid too, leaving no doubts in the song "March 14."
"Yesterday mornin' was crazy. I had to come to terms with the fact that it's not a maybe. That sh*t is in stone. Sealed and signed. She's not my lover like Billie Jean. But the kid is mine. Sadie used to tell me all it takes is one time. And all it took was one time. S**t, we only met two times."
The album also features a previously unreleased track with Michael Jackson.
TMZ broke the story ... Drake's been financially supporting baby mama Sophie Brussaux since the birth of their son last year. Sources close to the rapper told us last month Drake was planning to take a paternity test to figure out any future legalities.
So, that settles that.
