Fairly Legal

Kelly Osbourne dice que una de las mayores peleas que tuvo con su novio tuvo que ver con el apellido de su hijo.

La famosa hija de Ozzy y Sharon Osbourne se abrió sobre la enorme discusión con su hombre, Sid Wilson, en "The Osbournes Podcast", diciéndole a sus padres que su pareja no quería que su hijo Sidney tuviera sus dos apellidos cuando nació en 2022.

Kelly dice que ella y Sid -con quien ha estado desde principios de 2022- no podían llegar a un acuerdo respecto a darle a su hijo los dos apellidos, y al final, parece que Kelly lo convenció, porque que Sidney es un Osbourne.

Dijo que ella y Sid siguien adelante, pero puede que nunca sea capaz de perdonar a Wilson por haber sido tan cerrado. Así que sí, el asunto dejó sus cicatrices.

Pero hay luz al final del túnel... Osbourne dijo que ella y Wilson han estado hablando mucho y asisten a terapia de pareja, y afirma que él está entendiendo su punto de vista.

Kelly añadió que la pareja planea cambiar el nombre de su hijo para incluir los apellidos de ambos, una decisión inteligente de acuerdo con sus padres, quienes señalaron lo beneficioso que será el apellido Osbourne para el futuro del niño.

Después de todo, un montón de gente en Hollywood utiliza sus conexiones familiares para reservar puestos de trabajo -incluyendo a Kelly, quien recientemente dijo que estaba orgullosa de su apellido".

Kelly le dijo a Rolling Stone en enero que estaba orgullosa de los logros de sus padres, y que no tenía ningún problema en ser asociada con ellos, aunque añadió que no cree que las oportunidades deban caer en su regazo debido a sus lazos familiares.

Andy Cohen has been hit with a lawsuit by former 'RHONY' star Leah McSweeney ... and she's alleging the same sorts of things as Brandi Glanville.

According to legal docs filed Tuesday, obtained by TMZ, Leah -- who also starred on the 'Housewives' spinoff 'Ultimate Girls Trip' -- claims the producers ... along with Bravo, NBC Universal Media and others created a toxic work environment where her mental health and alcohol use disorder were exploited all in the "name of selling drama."

She goes on to allege Andy and others were pressuring her to consume alcohol during her time on the show -- despite knowing of her addiction struggles. As one example, Leah points to a text message she says she got from 'RHUGT' costar Marysol Patton saying, "I wish you were still drinking" -- which Leah took as a clear reference to her newfound sobriety.

The reality TV alum also claims that the "Watch What Happens Live" host uses cocaine with other Housewives and Bravo stars -- and allegedly rewards those who participate in the drug use with good TV edits.

A rep for Andy Cohen tells TMZ … "The claims against Andy are completely false."

Leah is suing for unspecified damages, claiming the production discriminated against her based on her known alcohol problem and other issues and failed to make any accommodations during her time on the shows.

This lawsuit comes amid other 'Housewives' drama for Andy -- who has been accused of sexually harassing "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" and 'RHUGT' alum Brandi Glanville.

ICYMI ... last week, Brandi's lawyers sent a letter to NBC Universal threatening a lawsuit -- in which the Bravo honcho was accused of inviting Brandi to watch him hook up with another Bravo personality over FaceTime.

Andy quickly responded to Brandi's claims ... writing on X that the whole thing was a joke that has been blown out of proportion. However ... he did acknowledge that the situation was inappropriate.

Kelly Osbourne says one of the biggest fights she had with her baby daddy all had to do with their kid's surname ... and it sounds like it's a fight she eventually backed down from.

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's famous daughter opened up about the huge argument with her man, Sid Wilson, on "The Osbournes Podcast" ... telling her parents her partner didn't want their son Sidney to have both their last names when he was born in 2022.

Kelly says she and Sid -- who she's been with since early 2022 -- couldn't see eye to eye about giving their son two last names, and ultimately it appears Kelly capitulated ... 'cause she says Sidney isn't an Osbourne in name.

Osbourne said she and Sid are moving on ... but that she also may never truly be able to forgive Wilson for seemingly forcing this decision upon her. So yeah, harsh feelings linger.

There is light at the end of the name tunnel though ... Osbourne said she and Wilson have been talking a lot -- and attending couples therapy -- and she says he's seeing her side of things.

Kelly added that the couple plans on changing their son's name to include both of their last names ... a smart move according to her parents who pointed out how beneficial the Osbourne name will be for the kid's future.

After all ... lots of people in Hollywood use their famous family connections to book jobs -- including Kelly, who recently said she was proud to wear the "nepo baby" moniker.

Kelly told Rolling Stone back in January she was proud of her parents' accomplishments, and she had no issue being associated with them -- though she added she doesn't think opportunities should fall in her lap because of her family ties.

The lengthy investigation into allegations of inappropriate behavior made against Christian Horner has concluded ... with the Red Bull team principal officially cleared of any wrongdoing.

The Formula 1 giant confirmed the findings of the probe on Wednesday ... saying it is "confident" the inquiry was handled in the most "fair, rigorous and impartial" manner.

Red Bull -- the six-time constructors' champion -- launched the investigation earlier this month ... although the nature of the allegations was never made public.

The complainant has the right to appeal.

Horner -- who has adamantly denied the claims -- can now shift focus to the start of the 2024 season, which kicks off with the Bahrain Grand Prix this weekend.

Red Bull's statement continued ... "The investigation report is confidential and contains the private information of the parties and third parties who assisted in the investigation, and therefore we will not be commenting further out of respect for all concerned."

"Red Bull will continue striving to meet the highest workplace standards."

El príncipe Harry ha estado librando una guerra con el gobierno británico luego de que retiraran su seguridad, que es financiada con fondos públicos del Reino Unido, pero ahora un juez está entregando un veredicto sobre el asunto.

El caso se ha prolongado desde 2022 y el Tribunal Superior de Londres finalmente falló el miércoles a favor del Ministerio del Interior después de que el Príncipe Harry intentara anular una decisión que rebajó su nivel de protección en el Reino Unido.

Recuerden, cuando él y su esposa Meghan Markle renunciaron a sus puestos reales, los abrigos rojos les dieron la espalda también y revocaron la seguridad de alto nivel que se puede permitir un miembro de la realeza que trabaja a tiempo completo normalmente. Harry lo denunció y presentó una demanda.

Como hemos dicho, esto fue hace mucho tiempo, pero finalmente se llegó a una conclusión y el Duque se va con un juez de Los Ángeles, sabiendo que no hay nada ilegal o injusto en la decisión alcanzada en favor del Ministerio del Interior.

No parece haber muchos detalles en términos de los motivos. Todo lo que el juez al parecer dijo en los documentos fue que este movimiento era razonable y legal y que una alternativa para Harry es contar con seguridad a medida, menos formal cuando esté en el Reino Unido.

Eso sí, Harry ya había perdido otra batalla legal en este frente de seguridad. Allí había tratado de argumentar que él debería ser capaz de pagar por seguridad de alto nivel de la policía, pero también fue rechazada.

10:41 AM PT -- A spokesperson for Prince Harry announced he will appeal this decision.

Prince Harry has been waging war with the British government over the fact they yanked his publicly-funded security in the UK ... but a judge flipped him the bird once and for all.

A decision was made in the drawn-out case that's been going on since 2022 -- with the London High Court ruling Wednesday in favor of the Home Office after PH had attempted to overturn a decision made that downgraded his level of protection across the pond.

Remember ... when he and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped down from their Royal posts -- the red coats turned their back on them too -- revoking top-level police officer security details a full-time working Royal might normally be afforded. Harry cried foul and sued over this.

Like we said, this has been going on for a long time ... but it's finally reached its conclusion -- and the Duke's walking away with an L.A. judge saying there was nothing unlawful or unfair about the way this conclusion was reached by the Home Office.

There doesn't seem to be much detail in terms of the rationale here -- all the judge reportedly said in the docs was that this move was reasonable and legal ... and that the alternative for Harry -- a tailored, less formal security detail if/when he's in the UK -- is also appropriate.

Mind you, Harry had already lost another battle on this security front -- he had tried arguing that he should be able to pay for high-level cop security ... but he got turned down there too.

Harry's whole gripe boiled down to him feeling like his family wasn't safe in the UK if they couldn't get the royal treatment in terms of security -- and now, it sounds like the government and the High Court are flatly telling him ... you're not a Royal anymore, bro. Deal with it. 🤷🏽‍♂️

The photographer that Taylor Swift's father, Scott Swift, allegedly attacked in Australia this week says he's willing to put this whole thing behind them ... on one condition.

Ben McDonald -- the paparazzo who claimed Scott roughed him up Tuesday as he and Taylor's security team were trying to escort her to a waiting SUV in Sydney -- tells TMZ that all would be forgiven if Papa Swiftie just issued an apology.

If Scott did that ... Ben says he'd accept it and drop all this, letting bygones be bygones.

Of course, Scott doesn't seem inclined to admit he did anything wrong -- remember, a rep for Taylor told us the paps that night were being very aggressive and claimed they were the ones in the wrong ... something Ben here tells us is BS.

He insists the visuals speak for themselves -- and says he suspects the reason Taylor and her team (including her security detail) got so pissy is because they realized paps had figured out where they were after a ride on a yacht. Ben tells us he was just doing his job.

While Ben says the events of that night are well-documented, he does admit that he doesn't have any further proof that Scott punched him -- as he claims -- beyond the videos that are already out there ... including the one he shot himself, and another that has since surfaced.

In both videos, you cannot clearly see what Scott's doing ... but Ben's sticking to his claim that the guy got physical with -- as did Taylor's security guards, whom he alleges used their umbrellas on him. As we reported ... cops are investigating Ben's claims at the moment.

One last point of clarification we got from Ben. It's been reported he was involved in another high-profile pap run-in with none other than Nicole Kidman back in 2005 -- when she was reportedly granted a restraining order against him and another photog over alleged surveillance via a listening device -- but Ben tells us that story is old and sensationalized.

He denies planting any listening device near Nicole at the time ... and also notes that while she might've been granted a temporary protective order, a judge didn't find enough evidence to grant her a permanent one once they took a closer look at her claims.

Diddy's latest accuser is being questioned on several key things after filing a lawsuit full of heavy allegations of sexual misconduct ... but his attorney has all the answers.

Rodney Jones' attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, is firing back after people started questioning his client's claims ... with the first being Rodney's allegation that Diddy forced him to watch a video involving Stevie J having sex with another man.

Remember, Stevie J told us earlier today that all the allegations concerning him were totally bogus -- and an adult film star Knockout has since come forward and said he's the man in the now-viral pic from the supposed sex tape and not SJ. So ... what gives, right?

Tyrone tells TMZ the video in question was allegedly provided to Rodney by Diddy himself, and we're told Rodney's sticking to his story that Diddy told him it was Stevie J -- that's what he's alleging anyway.

In terms of who it actually is ... Tyrone says his client only knew what was allegedly relayed to him when it first fell into his lap during his time with Diddy.

Tyrone also offers an explanation over another question that's been raised -- namely, why Rodney made no mention of sexual assault in his GoFundMe page a few weeks before the lawsuit was filed Monday ... where he literally tried to raise funds in an attempt sue Diddy after claiming he screwed out of royalties and publishing rights on Diddy's latest album.

Tyrone tells us, "Victims of sexual assault respond to their trauma in very different ways. There is no uniformity in response to sexual trauma."

He adds ... "Mr. Jones is a father and Christian. He was willing to sacrifice his rights concerning his assault, in an effort to protect his dignity and the dignity of his family. Mr. Combs was made aware of Mr. Jones' claim for assault from the moment Mr. Jones made his intentions to sue clear."

Tyrone explains the main reason Rodney started the GFM was to pay his previous attorney ... who was hired to assist with collecting the publishing and royalties money. Since then, his claims against Diddy have obviously expanded in scope ... and now Tyrone's involved.

Lastly ... Tyrone also addresses speculation that Rodney isn't the man with Cuba Gooding Jr. in a snap that was included in the complaint as purported evidence -- where the actor is allegedly seen cozying up with another dude, which the suit says is Rodney.

Tyrone's straight-up dismissing the conjecture that it ain't Rodney ... 'cause he says it 100% is. He actually claims they've got the video proof to back up their claims here.

Despite some holes people have tried poking in Rodney's narrative -- his attorney is remaining steadfast ... and insisting his client is telling the truth.

A social media influencer with two million followers on Instagram is claiming Tyreek Hill broke her leg in a fit of rage in his backyard during a football drill last summer ... and now, she wants him to fork over some serious cash for it all.

Sophie Hall made the allegations in a lawsuit filed in Broward County, Fla. last week ... alleging the incident went down a short time after she had booked a ticket for her son to attend one of the NFL star's football camps in South Florida.

She claimed that after her purchase went through, she received some flirtatious messages from Hill on IG. One of the texts, she said, included a line from the Dolphins wide receiver that read, "I've been know to be a good stepdad."

Hall says during their chat on the social media app, Hill also invited her to "come a day early so me and mom can hang" -- before he gave her his personal cell phone.

In her suit, Hall says she went on to attend the camp with her son on June 17 -- and while there, Hill asked her to come back and visit him at his Southwest Ranches mansion.

Hall says days later, Hill purchased a flight and travel arrangements for her to reconnect with him on June 28.

Hall claims after she made her way to Hill's home, he asked her to participate in some football drills during a training session he was having in his backyard. Hill allegedly asked her to rush against him in a defensive line vs. offensive line, 1-on-1 style workout. According to Hall, she shoved the Super Bowl champion backward, which caused him to be embarrassed.

"Mr. Hill's attitude changed and he became angry," Hall said in her suit.

Hall alleges Hill then flipped the drill around so he could rush against her. And, after a couple reps, she said Hill "charged into her violently and with great force" ... 'causing her to suffer a right leg injury.

Hall says she complained that she was hurt ... but claims Hill has downplayed the severity of her injury, telling her to just rest on a bed and ice the leg.

In her suit, Hall says when she eventually got back home on July 1, 2023, an orthopedist diagnosed her with a leg fracture ... that required metal hardware implantation to fix.

Two men have now been convicted of murdering Run-DMC's Jam Master Jay ... bringing an end to one of hip hop's longest-running cold cases.

The jury in Brooklyn Federal Court found both defendants Ronald Washington and Karl Jordan Jr. guilty Tuesday, just a little under a month after the trial began.

Jay was gunned down more than 21 years ago on the evening of October 30, 2002 ... where prosecutors argued Washington and Jordan both ambushed him at his studio over a failed drug deal, with Jordan executing him at close range with multiple shots to the head.

A third defendant, Jay Bryant, will be tried at a later date after he was implicated in the murder.

Investigators say Bryant left an article containing his DNA at the scene as he's said to have been the point man allowing Washington and Jordan access to the studio to murder the hip hop icon.

Dos hombres han sido declarados culpables de asesinar a Jam Master Jay de Run-DMC, dándole fin a uno de los casos más antiguos del hip hop.

El jurado en el Tribunal Federal de Brooklyn declaró culpables a los acusados Ronald Washington y Karl Jordan Jr. el martes, poco menos de un mes después de que comenzara el juicio.

Jay fue asesinado a tiros hace más de 21 años la noche del 30 de octubre de 2002. Los fiscales argumentaron que Washington y Jordan le tendieron una emboscada en su estudio sobre un acuerdo de drogas fallido, lo que terminó con Jordan ejecutándolo a quemarropa con múltiples disparos en la cabeza.

Un tercer acusado, Jay Bryant, será juzgado en una fecha posterior después de haber sido implicado en el asesinato.

Los investigadores dicen que Bryant dejó un artículo que contiene su ADN en la escena, ya que se dice que fue el hombre clave que le permitió a Washington y Jordan acceder al estudio para asesinar al icono del hip hop.

Carmen Electra se está despidiendo de su nombre de nacimiento y abrazando su icónico apodo para siempre, pues su solicitud de cambio de nombre ha sido oficialmente concedida.

TMZ confirmó que a la icónica actriz y modelo de "Baywatch" se le concedió legalmente el nombre que buscaba hace unos 2 meses, de acuerdo con nuevos documentos legales obtenidos por TMZ.

Luego de dos meses de que diera a conocer sus intenciones de cambiarse el nombre, los tribunales han concedido que sea legalmente reconocida como "Carmen Electra" en lugar de su nombre de nacimiento Tara Leigh Patrick en los documentos del gobierno y todo.

Fuimos los primeros en contarles: Carmen Electra hizo la presentación el 29 de diciembre de 2023 y en su momento nos dijeron que su razonamiento se debía a su deseo de comenzar de nuevo en las vísperas del Año Nuevo.

Por supuesto, hace siglos que nadie le dice Tara, ya que Carmen lleva luciendo su apodo desde que irrumpió en escena en su momento.

Por si no conoces la historia de cómo consiguió su nombre artístico, fue el mismísimo Prince quien se lo puso cuando fue a una audición para formar parte de un grupo femenino que él estaba armando a principios de los 90.

Desafortunadamente, no fue elegida por Prince, pero abrió su propio camino al estrellato, causando sensación en televisión y más allá y, obviamente, el nombre de Carmen se quedó.

Su apodo se ha convertido en sinónimo de su icónico estatus como icono de la cultura pop, por lo que es lógico que lo haya querido convertir en su verdadero nombre.

Carmen Electra is bidding farewell to her birth name and embracing her iconic stage moniker for good ... 'cause her name change request has been officially granted!!

TMZ has confirmed that the iconic "Baywatch" actress/model was legally granted the name she sought about 2 months ago -- this according to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ.

Two months after she made her intentions known to the court, she's now legally recognized as "Carmen Electra" instead of her birth name Tara Leigh Patrick on government docs and all.

We broke the story ... CE made the filing on Dec. 29, 2023, and we were told at the time her reasoning boiled down to her wanting a fresh start for the New Year.

Of course, it's been absolutely ages since anyone's called her Tara as Carmen's been rocking her super cool moniker since bursting onto the scene back in the day.

If you didn't know the backstory to how she even got her stage name, it was actually late icon Prince who bestowed it upon her when she auditioned to be part of an all-girl group he was assembling in the early '90s.

Unfortunately, she didn't make the cut for Prince ... but she went on to blaze her own trail to stardom, making a splash on TV and beyond -- and obviously, the name Carmen stuck around.

Safe to say ... her cool moniker has become synonymous with her iconic status as a pop culture icon, so it's only fitting she made it the real deal.

Kanye West está siendo arrastrado a los tribunales por los representantes de Donna Summer, quienes afirman que hizo un soundalike no autorizado de una de sus canciones más grandes luego de que se le negara la solicitud para usar el sample original.

El patrimonio de la fallecida cantante acaba de presentar una demanda contra Ye, Ty Dolla $ign, el sello discográfico de Ye y otros, y de acuerdo con los documentos obtenidos por TMZ, están reclamando que Kanye quería una muestra del éxito de Summer "I Feel Love" para usarlo en un track de "Vultures".

La canción en cuestión se llama "Good (Don't Die)" y se incluyó en la lista de canciones desde un comienzo, cuando Ye lanzó "Vultures 1" el 10 de febrero a través de diferentes plataformas de streaming.

De hecho, los que han escuchado la canción saben muy bien que suena la voz de Donna en la nueva pista de West, pero el problema, según la demanda, es que Ye nunca obtuvo el permiso adecuado para usarlo y el patrimonio afirma que fueron muy claros en rechazar la solicitud.

Afirman que Ye y Ty se acercaron a ellos justo a principios de este año -el 31 de enero de 2024- para solicitar autorización sobre su icónico éxito, pero se les negó rotundamente.

Dicen que los abogados de Summer todavía controlan una parte de los derechos de autor y afirman que Ye y compañía se acercaron a ellos un poco más de una semana antes de la fecha de lanzamiento de la nueva canción, con Kanye aparentemente queriendo lanzar el álbum el 9 de febrero con la canción incluida.

Los representantes dicen que debido la reputación de Ye últimamente -presumiblemente las controversias en torno a sus comentarios antisemitas y otras declaraciones públicas- decidieron que su canción se utilizará en su álbum.

A pesar de esto, el patrimonio de Donna afirma que Ye lanzó el álbum de todos modos con "Good (Don't Die)" incluida en el track list y que apareció en Apple, Spotify y otras plataformas de streaming.

Afirman que Ye intentó eludir la denegación mediante la creación de una interpolación de la canción de Donna en lugar de la pista real, pero los representantes de Donna afirman que la solución no les aísla de la infracción de derechos de autor.

El patrimonio de Donna dice que se puso en contacto con Apple, Spotify y otros streamers para pedir que retiren la canción, lo que puede explicar por qué el álbum de Kanye desapareció brevemente el fin de semana que fue lanzado. Al final, se volvió a cargar, pero "Good (Don't Die)" se eliminó de la lista.

Sin embargo, debido al tiempo que tomó para que todo esto suceda, los representantes de Summer alegan que la canción ya se ha reproducido millones de veces y el daño está hecho.

Por cierto, "Good (Don't Die)" todavía está incluido en la lista de canciones de "Vultures 1" para aquellos que compraron el álbum por primera vez, y todavía se puede reproducir la canción en su totalidad en Apple Music, algo que hemos confirmado aquí nosotros mismos.

Kanye West is being dragged to court by Donna Summer's estate -- this after her estate claims he made an unauthorized soundalike of one of her biggest songs ... after it denied his request to clear a sample of the real thing.

The late singer's estate just filed suit against Ye, Ty Dolla $ign, Ye's record label and others -- and according to the docs, obtained by TMZ, they're claiming Kanye wanted to sample Summer's smash hit "I Feel Love" for a track on his first 'Vultures' album.

The song in question is called "Good (Don't Die)" ... and it was actually included in the tracklist at first when KW dropped 'Vultures 1' on Feb. 10 across different streaming platforms.

Indeed, those who've heard the song know quite well ... it sounds a lot like Donna's voice from 'IFL' in the new West track -- but the problem, according to the lawsuit, is that Ye and co. never properly got permission to use it ... and the estate claims they were very clear about rejecting the request.

In the suit, filed by attorney Larry Stein, Donna's estate claims Ye and Ty approached them about a month ago -- on Jan. 31, 2024, they say -- to request clearance on her iconic hit ... but the estate flatly denied them.

The estate says Summer's estate still controls a portion of the copyright -- and claims Ye and company approached them a little more than a week before the release date for the new song ... with Kanye apparently wanting to drop the album on Feb. 9, with the song in the mix.

The estate says because of Ye's rep lately -- presumably the controversies surrounding his antisemitic comments and other public statements -- Donna's estate decided her song being used on his album wasn't going to do them any good ... so they say they passed, and rejected his ask for the sample.

Despite this, Donna's estate claims Ye dropped the album anyway with "Good (Don't Die)" on there ... and it showed up on Apple, Spotify and other major streaming/music platforms.

They claim Ye attempted to get around the denial by creating an interpolation of Donna's song instead of the actual track --- but Donna's estate claims the workaround doesn't insulate them from copyright infringement.

Donna's estate says they contacted Apple, Spotify and other streamers to ask they yank the song -- which may explain why Kanye's album briefly disappeared the weekend it was released. Eventually, it was re-uploaded -- but "Good (Don't Die)" is now removed from the list.

However, in the time it took for all this to happen ... Donna's estate claims the song had been streamed millions of times -- and they allege they've been harmed as a result.

BTW, "Good (Don't Die)" is still included in the track list for 'Vultures 1' for those who actually purchased the album when it first dropped, and it still plays in full ... at least, we've confirmed that's the case on Apple Music.

New footage of Taylor Swift's dad coming face to face with paparazzi in Australia has surfaced -- and while it shows more of the incident ... it's still hard to tell what happened.

In the video ... Scott clutches his superstar daughter's hand as she walks along while covering her torso with an umbrella. Chaos quickly ensues ... with Taylor's security detail attempting to create a clear path to an awaiting vehicle for the father and daughter ... who had just left a yacht after arriving from Homebush.

Taylor is seen blindly crawling into the back of the vehicle as paparazzi attempt to get a perfect shot. That's when you can see Scott go around toward the back of the vehicle -- where other paps are -- and some kind of scuffle appears to unfold behind the door.

Again, it's impossible to tell from this shot what went down -- but you do see some activity back there ... and Scott is in the vicinity, as are other security guards.

As we reported ... Scott has been accused of getting physical with one photographer in particular -- identified as Ben McDonald -- in an alleged altercation that the pap has characterized as assault. He went to cops there, and they're investigating this.

A rep for Taylor told us that more than one individual was "aggressively pushing their way towards Taylor" ... and claimed people were grabbing her security team, and threatening to throw a female into the water.

Taylor's camp didn't specifically address the allegation against Scott by the photog.

The cops in Australia note the alleged victim did not require medical treatment after the encounter with Scott. So ... perhaps the whole drama will be shaken off before it turns into something more serious. McDonald doesn't seem inclined to let this go, though.

Time will tell if anything more serious comes about.
