COURTTV OF THE WEEK GWYNETH’S TRIAL GOES VIRAL The most buzzed-about new show on TV? Gwyneth Paltrow’s trial! The Goop guru’s wild battle with retired optometrist Terry Sanderson, 76, over a 2016 collision on the ski slopes of Utah had the internet rapt. One Twitter user compared the courtroom shenanigans to “an SNL skit,” while another demanded, “Cast Gwyneth on a Housewives franchise immediately.” Others predicted the entire circus would either make the perfect plot for a Netflix rom-com — or be chronicled in the next chapter of Ryan Murphy’s American Crime Story (with Sarah Paulson playing the Oscar winner, of course!). But it turned out to be a limited series: On March 30, a jury ruled in Gwyneth’s favor. Even so, Twitter users are still hoping for Season…

Ouch! Shawn Mendes must have forgotten the SPF on his recent trip to Mexico City. On March 27, the “It’ll Be Okay” singer, 24, shared photos of the severe sunburn he got while wearing a tank top — as evidenced by the outline on his chiseled body. Shawn, who explored the famous pre-Columbian city of Teotihuacan and marveled at its ancient pyramids, attempted to laugh off the fact that he got burned to a crisp, but his pal, OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, was concerned and commented, “Protek that skin bruhhhh.” Our guess is he will next time!…

Britney & Sam THE RINGS ARE OFF! Over already? Britney Spears and Sam Asghari — who married in June — added fuel to the split rumors when they both recently stepped out without their wedding rings. First the Princess of Pop, 41, was spotted ringless on March 28 boarding a private jet to Hawaii with her manager, Cade Hudson. Two days later, Sam’s ring finger was also bare as he ran errands in LA. “Something is up,” a source tells In Touch. “Not only are they not wearing their rings, but Britney fled for Hawaii with her manager. Hawaii is a special place for her and Sam, and she’s going without him? With her manager?” As she boarded the plane, Britney was clutching a teddy bear, also fueling rumors she’s…

The lineup is all set. After their official coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey on May 6, King Charles and Queen Camilla will ride in the Gold State Coach during a procession through the streets of London back to Buckingham Palace. And, according to recently leaked documents, Prince William, Kate Middleton and their children, Prince George, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte, will be in the carriage behind them, followed by Princess Anne and her husband, Tim; Prince Edward and his wife, Sophie; and four of the late Queen Elizabeth’s cousins. “This event has been meticulously planned with Charles getting the final say, of course,” a royals source tells In Touch. “Working royals only are front and center.” Which means Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, have been relegated to common…

She’s ready for her close-up! Matilda Carmine Richie Pelphrey entered the world on March 30, and her parents, Kaley Cuoco and Tom Pelphrey, couldn’t be more overjoyed, calling her “the new light of our lives” and “this little miracle.” “Thank you to the doctors, nurses, family and friends who have helped us immensely over the last few days. We are blessed beyond belief,” the Meet Cute actress, 37, shared, adding a pink heart. “@tommypelphrey, [I] didn’t think I could fall even more in love with you, but I did.” The Ozark actor, 40, took the photos himself, beaming, “My heart is full of love and gratitude for this miracle…. Eternally grateful for the strength and bravery of my soulmate and best friend @kaleycuoco.” Their first days home were hectic, says…
