About this episode

This episode covers Blake Lively's legal troubles, Whitney Leavitt's departure from reality TV, and Britney Spears' plea deal in her DUI case.

The drama is NOT slowing down this week. New court filings in the It Ends With Us case allege Blake Lively wanted to DESTROY the dailies (yes, the actual raw footage from set) and her camp is being accused of using Signal's auto-delete to wipe communications — all ahead of the May 18 trial. We're breaking down exactly what the new docs say and what it means for the case. Then: Whitney Leavitt has OFFICIALLY left The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. She dropped the bombshell from the stage during her final Chicago performance as Roxie Hart on May 3 — and we're getting into whether this was always the plan after Dancing With the Stars, what it means for Season 5, and her upcoming holiday rom-com. PLUS — Britney Spears pleaded guilty to a lesser "wet reckless" charge in her DUI case and will avoid jail time. We'll cover the plea deal, the probation, and her recent stint in treatment.
