The drama continues for Kevin Costner and his rather tumultuous divorce, as we now hear of a violent argument between Costner and a man… who allegedly spent far too much time with his wife!

Taylor Swift’s Canadian fans are clearly looking forward to seeing her live, and while the singer has just announced a series of international concerts as part of The Eras Tour, many Canadians have taken to social media to express their frustration at once again being left out in the cold!
