Anna Kendrick's secret romance with Emmy and Tony Award winner revealed after traumatic abusive relationship
has reportedly been secretly dating comedian Alex Edelman for 'several months.' The Oscar-nominated actress - turning the big 4-0 next month - has even 'met his mother' Cheryl, a real estate lawyer, and they 'celebrated his 36th birthday together in March.' 'It doesn't seem casual,' a source noted to People on Monday. 'Anna's very private, though. They enjoy date night at low-key restaurants that are not your typical celeb hang-outs.' DeuxMoi posted the first pictures of the coy couple in a car together in LA on Monday with Alex in the driver's seat and Anna seated shotgun. And while Kendrick has been nominated for an Emmy and Tony, Edelman actually won both coveted trophies last year for his Broadway hit-turned-Max special, Just for Us. On March 2, the Boston-born funnyman made headlines for chivalrously lending newly-separated Jessica Alba his coat to keep her warm outside the Vanity Fair Oscars party, but she quickly shot down any romance rumors. Alex is said to have previously embarked on an on/off relationship with Canadian comedian Katherine Ryan. The Maine native previously dated her Scott Pilgrim director Edgar Wright, her End of Watch onscreen leading man Jake Gyllenhaal, and her Noelle onscreen brother Bill Hader. But it was Anna's seven-year relationship with her Drinking Buddies cinematographer Ben Richardson, which ended in 2020, that was rumored to have been psychologically abusive. Without naming names, Kendrick recalled her 'awful' gaslighting ex-boyfriend, whom she had considered her 'husband' for 'all intents and purposes' 'I didn't expect how totally convinced he was of his own victimhood. I think he genuinely believed that I was, like, torturing him,' the Another Simple Favor actress recalled to Call Her Daddy on October 23. 'I was just crying, because I couldn't pretend that things were fine anymore. I just started crying and he screamed in my face, "You're terrorizing me!" But it was truly from the place of a person who believed that they were being terrorized.' Anna continued: 'It was very, very difficult to actually go, "No, this, I think this is, I think this is him. I think, I think this is his stuff." I turned my life completely upside down trying to fix whatever was wrong with me.' Kendrick vowed to never get involved with another man - 'meaning we're not even kissing, we're not even going to have a real conversation - unless you are in or have been in therapy.' The Another Simple Favor actress vowed to never get involved with another man - 'meaning we're not even kissing, we're not even going to have a real conversation - unless you are in or have been in therapy' Edelman is next scheduled to perform standup comedy at Zanies Comedy Club in Nashville, TN on July 25-26. The Unfrosted actor also co-wrote and co-stars in Greg Daniels and Michael Koman's 13-episode newspaper mockumentary The Paper, which premieres September 18 on Peacock. The Office follow-up series will also feature Domhnall Gleeson, Tracy Letts, Molly Ephraim, and Oscar Nuñez. The Pitch Perfect alum reprised her 2012 voiceover role as Courtney Babcock in Laika's CG-animated short ParaNorman: The Thrifting, which will accompany the newly-remastered 3D original film for a one-week theatrical engagement this Halloween.

Ben Affleck emerges after ex Jennifer Lopez released her heartbreak song Wreckage of You about their divorce
Just a few days after his ex Jennifer Lopez dropped a new song about their tumultuous relationship, Ben Affleck was spotted out for the first time. Lopez debuted a new song called Wreckage of You during an exclusive listening party for 30 lucky fans in Los Angeles last week. The 55-year-old singer played six new tracks - five upbeat tracks dubbed Up All Night, Regular, Free, Save Me Tonight and Birthday - and a ballad dubbed Wreckage of You, which reports reveal the latter was about the aftermath of her second marriage to Affleck. While Affleck has yet to publicly respond in regards to the new song, he was spotted having dinner with a friend at the West Hollywood hotspot Steak 48 on Monday. The actor was spotted with a friend at the establishment, where they dined for over two hours. He was seen wearing a white button-up dress shirt, dark blue jeans and brown boots for the dinner outing, while carrying a jacket. During the exclusive fan event last week, Lopez revealed that she co-wrote and recorded the song two weeks ago, via US Weekly. One fan in attendance - Edgardo Luis Rivera - revealed, 'She said she was lying in bed after a long day of tour rehearsals when the idea of the song came to her.' 'She mentioned how last year was a very difficult time for her both personally and professionally. She had to cancel her tour and really focus on herself,' the fan added. 'Fast-forward to one year later, and she feels better and stronger than ever, so she wanted to write a song about coming out of a bad situation much stronger,' he said. He said that she, 'kept thinking of the word "wreck" because it means destruction, but she wasn't destroyed,' adding one of the songs lyrics are, 'I'm stronger after the wreckage of you.' Another unnamed fan in attendance added Wreckage of You was a, 'very emotional, empowering song about walking away from a relationship and coming out a stronger person.' The exes are still trying to sell their $60 million marital home that they bought in May 2023, nearly a year after tying the knot for a second time. They separated for a second time in April 2024, with Lopez filing for divorce in August 2024. The exes are still trying to sell their $60 million marital home that they bought in May 2023, nearly a year after tying the knot for a second time. While the divorce was finalized this February, they have still failed to sell the home, which they initially listed for $68 million in July 2024. They dropped the price to their break-even point at $60 million after failing to find a buyer, but the home was recently taken off the market entirely. An i nsider exclusively told the Daily Mail, 'Ben and JLo slashed the price on their Beverly Hills mansion for $8 million less than they paid for it, but this is nothing to Ben.' 'He really just wants this to be sold so that he can cut the final cord that keeps him and Jennifer intertwined,' it was added.

Purvis, 33, took to the site of the funeral home which handled arrangements for John Mark Harris, a 37-year-old chef who authorities said Purvis provided deadly drugs to. 'John mark, I hate that I found out what happened today and missed your funeral,' Purvis wrote on the Henderson & Sons Funeral Home site March 3. Purvis posted the message more than three months before she was arrested Monday in Floyd County, Georgia in connection with with involuntary manslaughter and distribution of a controlled substance, among other felony counts, TMZ reported Monday. 'I wish I could've found out sooner and attended your celebration of life,' the reality star said. Purvis thanked her late confidante 'for being such a great friend to me and always making me feel beautiful and cared for.' Purvis said that her late friend had been a dear one, as they grew close over their passion for cooking. 'We bonded over being chefs, our love of cooking and our struggle,' she said. She praised Harris for his candor and intelligence in their interactions over the years. 'I could tell you anything and you always knew what to say or give me your honest opinion and advice,' Purvis said. The MTV alum added 'You've came to my rescue on many occasions and saved me over the years. 'I am so very thankful for the times we had together.' Purvis - who's also charged with use of a communication device to commit a felony involving controlled substances - said that she was dealing with serious emotional trauma over the loss of her friend. 'My brain just can't process this happened. I don't want it to be true,' she said. Purvis listed off a number of things she associated with him that she would miss in the wake of her friend's passing. 'I'll miss waking up to your silly messages and pictures you'd send me,' she said. 'I'll miss marshal and lunchbox. I'll miss your amazing cooking. I'll miss snuggling on the couch watching tv with you. 'I'll miss sitting outside, smoking camel crush cigs w/ you how we talked about talked about life, gossiping and you telling me what movies/shows I need to watch next.' Purvis characterized her late friend as 'a truly good hearted, one of a kind man' who she would 'never forget.' Purvis, who has more than 17,500 followers on Instagram, wrapped up in saying: 'Rest in peace and my condolences to your family and friends. 'I pray they are able to find some kind of comfort during this tragic time. I love you forever, John Mark. Love, Whitney.'
