Exs

Different kind of wake-and-bake for Hunter Biden ... at least that's what his ex-girlfriend claimed on the stand, alleging he'd light up a crack pipe upon waking up in his drug days.

Hunter's ex, Zoe Kestan, testified in court out in Delaware Wednesday in the President's son's federal gun trial ... with her testimony touching on a lot of Hunter's alleged drug habits while they were together years ago.

Zoe testified Hunter's crack use was near constant in private and that he "would want to smoke as soon as he woke up." On the flip side, she also says he was universally liked while out in public ... telling jurors he was "charming."

NY Giants star Darren Waller -- who's also a musician -- is opening up on his love life, in song form, dropping a new track about failed past relationships just months after his ex, WNBA star Kelsey Plum filed for divorce.

The latest single is titled "Who Knew (Her Perspective)" ... and Waller said he wrote it from the viewpoint of a woman trying to love him.

"I’ve struggled with intimacy in romantic relationships my whole life, and I recognize the toll it has taken on the lovers I’ve been close to," the 31-year-old said on Thursday.

Johnny Wactor's ex-fiancée passionately spoke out against his murder -- and while her heart's in the right place, the actor's family thinks her mouth is elsewhere ... and not needed.

We talked to Johnny's mother, Scarlett, who tells TMZ that Johnny and Tessa Farrell dated years ago and haven't stayed in touch ... not having spoken in at least 2-3 years. She says his family also hasn't maintained contact with her, which is why she's peeved about her comments.

Tessa's emotional plea for stricter laws in L.A. rings hollow for Scarlett, who tells us she believes Tessa is just clout-chasing -- even though Tessa's tearful video certainly seemed genuine. In fact, we spoke to her to get more detail about what she'd like to see change in L.A's criminal justice system.

Kel Mitchell's making explosive claims about his ex-wife, claiming she got pregnant by multiple men during their marriage ... something she says is an outright lie and delusion.

The actor sat down with Shannon Sharpe on his "Club Shay Shay" podcast for an interview released Wednesday when he talked about his ex, Tyisha Hampton, to whom he was married from 1999 to 2005.

The way Kel tells it, Hampton had an abortion before they got married -- and, after they married, he claims she told him the aborted fetus was not his, but a different man's.

Bill Gates' ex-wife is breaking away from their longtime self-titled foundation -- of which she's been a central part since its founding ... and it's the nail in the coffin to their relationship.

Melinda Gates made the announcement Monday, writing ... "After careful thought and reflection, I have decided to resign from my role as co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. My last day of work at the foundation will be June 7th."

She adds, "This is not a decision I came to lightly. I am immensely proud of the work the foundation that Bill and I built together and of the extraordinary work it is doing to address inequities around the world. I care deeply about the foundation team, our partners around the world, and everyone who is touch by its work."

11:19 AM PT -- Tyrese Gibson's ex-wife Norma Mitchell just upped the ante in her legal war with him -- now running to court in search of a temporary restraining ... bringing these same claims in her defamation suit as the crux for her argument on why she needs court-ordered protection, ditto for their daughter.

In her docs, obtained by TMZ, Norma says the IG posts Tyrese has been throwing up are grounds for harassment -- and she's asking the court to force him to take them down. She's also asking that he be ordered to refrain from talking about them online, plus ... she wants a judge to make him pay for therapy sessions pertaining to all this, and it adds up to a lot.

A judge has yet to rule on her TRO request.

Keyshia Cole's been official with rapper Hunxho for a couple of weeks, but it looks like their relationship's hit the skids -- now that his ex-GF appears to be creeping back into the picture.

Hunxho just got up-and-close and personal with his ex, and fellow rapper, Gloss Up for a new track ... and Keyshia isn't taking the news well.

Gloss dropped her new EP "Not Ya Girl: Act 1" on Friday, complete with a music vid for the Hunxho-featured single "Come Here" -- a booty call anthem that showed both Gloss and Hunxho playing out the scenes, which include a soapy and steamy bathtub!!!

Joe Biden's opening up about his mental health struggles ... saying he once considered taking his own life in one particularly low moment -- but, his kids saved him.

POTUS sat down for an interview with Howard Stern on his SiriusXM show Friday, and spoke about his first wife Neilia and their infant daughter dying in a 1972 car crash ... admitting he briefly thought about suicide.

Biden says a person doesn't have to be crazy to consider this ... adding he even thought about jumping off the Delaware Memorial Bridge ... but ultimately decided against it because he had two other children, Beau and Hunter, to think about.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard's marriage hit rocky waters after a post-prison phone call from her ex-fiancé -- something we now know her estranged husband finds awfully suspicious.

Here's the deal ... sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that Gypsy's stepmother, Kristy, received a call from Gypsy's ex, Ken Urker, sometime in January -- right around the time the first season of her Lifetime show aired, and we're told he wanted to clear the air.

Our sources say Ken told Kristy he wanted to clarify the reason he'd broken things off with GRB a few years back. At the time, reports said he didn't like the newfound fame she was getting ... but we're told he explained he just wanted to give Gypsy space to grow.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard might say there's nothing romantic between her and her ex-fiancé Ken Urker ... but these photos would suggest otherwise, at least on the face of things.

Take a look ... Gypsy and Ken looked awfully close for 2 people claiming to be just pals -- as they were hand in hand strolling into a Dollar General in South Louisiana Wednesday.

The former couple emerged from the convenience store with some budget purchases in hand ... and at one point, they even stopped for a smoke break outside -- where Ken placed a hand on her shoulder, showing off a little more affection.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard podrá decir que no hay nada romántico entre ella y su ex-prometido Ken Urker, pero estas fotos sugieren lo contrario, al menos a primera vista.

Echa un vistazo, Gypsy y Ken se veían muy cercanos para dos personas que dicen ser solo amigos, ya que estaban de la mano paseando por un Dollar General en el sur de Louisiana el miércoles.

La ex pareja salió de la tienda de conveniencia con algunas compras en la mano y en un momento dado, incluso se detuvieron a fumar afuera. Ken puso una mano sobre su hombro, mostrando un poco más de afecto.

La ex de Diddy -Cassie- ha estado en contacto con las autoridades en la investigación federal, y no solo eso, nos dicen que está cooperando y que otros han hecho lo mismo.

Fuentes directas nos dicen que Cassie está entre los testigos con los que los federales han estado en contacto en relación con la investigación de Diddy. Nos dicen que ha estado trabajando con los investigadores durante varias semanas, presumiblemente incluso antes de que las casas de Diddy fueran allanadas.

Parece que Cassie puede haber ayudado a los federales a establecer una causa probable para lograr que un juez firme las órdenes de registro. Otras mujeres, se nos dice, también han estado en contacto con los investigadores federales.

Diddy's ex, Cassie, has been in touch with the authorities in the federal investigation -- not just that, we're told she's cooperating  ... as are others who've sued him.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us ... Cassie is among the witnesses the feds have been in contact with in connection with the Diddy investigation ... we're told she's been working with investigators for several weeks ... presumably even before Diddy's homes were raided.

Given the timing, it seems Cassie may have helped the feds establish probable cause to get a judge to sign off on the search warrants. Other women, we're told, have also been in contact with federal investigators.

El cuento de hadas de Gypsy Rose Blanchard con su marido tras su salida de la cárcel llegó a su fin la semana pasada y ahora sabemos exactamente lo que llevó a la ruptura.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que Gypsy le ha estado diciendo a su familia y amigos que su exmarido Ryan Anderson se había vuelto súper peleador con ella tras salir de la cárcel y la hacía sentir constantemente como si no pudiera hacer nada bien.

Nos dicen que uno de los principales puntos de fricción en la relación de Gypsy y Ryan eran los celos que sentía por el tiempo que pasaba con su padre, o eso es lo que nuestras fuentes dicen que Gypsy le ha estado diciendo a la gente a su alrededor.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard's post-prison fairytale with her husband came to an end last week -- and now ... we know exactly what led up to the split.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ...  Gypsy has been telling family and friends that her estranged hubby, Ryan Anderson, had become super argumentative post-prison release and was constantly making her feel like she couldn't do anything right.

We're told one of the major sticking points in Gypsy and Ryan's relationship was his apparent jealousy over her spending time with her dad -- that's what our sources say Gypsy has been telling people anyway.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard isn't hooking up with her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker, despite getting matching tattoos with him -- but he does have her best interest at heart -- much more so than her husband ... so says Ken's mom anyway.

Raina Williams tells TMZ that Ken recently flew from his home in Texas to go hang out with Gypsy in Louisiana amid her ongoing separation from Ryan Anderson -- and the reason, we're told, is because he wanted to be there for support ... and serve as a rock for GRB.

Ken's mother says he told her he'd always be there for her, and even though they're not together anymore ... we're told Ken felt compelled to be with Gypsy during this hard time.
