His Hit Song Was 'Romantic Homicide.' Now He's a Murder Suspect.

His Hit Song Was 'Romantic Homicide.' Now He's a Murder Suspect.

The father of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez watched his daughter's alleged killer get dragged away in handcuffs this week. D4vd—the 21-year-old singer whose real name is David Anthony Burke—was arrested on suspicion of murdering the teenager, whose dismembered body was found rotting in the trunk of his Tesla at a Hollywood impound lot last September.

Burke's viral TikTok hit "Romantic Homicide" now feels like a confession tape. The car had been ticketed and towed before police made the grisly discovery. Celeste's family had reported her missing multiple times in the year before her death, watching their daughter spiral before she vanished forever.

Burke is being held without bail while prosecutors decide whether to file formal charges Monday. His attorneys are claiming innocence, but a grand jury has been investigating him for months—a fact that only came to light when his family members fought subpoenas to testify against him.

The Duggar Family's Perfect Image Shatters. Again.

Joseph Duggar, 31, pleaded not guilty on March 31 to molesting a 9-year-old girl during a 2020 vacation in Panama City Beach, Florida. He's the second son from the "19 Kids and Counting" family to face child sex abuse charges. His older brother Josh is already serving prison time for receiving child pornography.

Joseph and his wife Kendra, 27, are together facing charges of endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment in Arkansas. After spending two weeks in custody during extradition to Florida, Joseph was released on a $600,000 bond and reunited with Kendra. The couple have been leaning on faith and family as they await what comes next. Kendra's parents publicly expressed support for the alleged victim while also standing by their daughter and grandchildren.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar broke their silence March 30, calling the situation heartbreaking. Their spokesperson told Us Weekly they are "focused on loving their family and helping Kendra and her children during this difficult time" and are "praying for the victim."

Gobble's Take: Two brothers, two child abuse cases—at what point does this stop being coincidence and start being a family pattern?

Josh Allen Is Trading Playbooks for Parenting Manuals

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was showing off baby photos to fellow NFL players just hours after his daughter was born. The superstar athlete and actress wife Hailee Steinfeld welcomed their first child this week, with Steinfeld announcing in her newsletter: "Our baby girl has arrived!! We're feeling incredibly grateful and blessed."

The couple, who married last May after dating since 2023, didn't let new parenthood slow them down. They were spotted celebrating at Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold's wedding, where Allen proudly passed around photos of his newborn to teammates. Sources say the typically composed quarterback is "diving into fatherhood like he promised he would."

Steinfeld admitted she agonized over every detail preparing for the baby's arrival. Now she's learning that no amount of planning prepares you for those 3 AM feedings and diaper blowouts.

Gobble's Take: You can complete passes under pressure from 300-pound linemen, but one crying baby will humble any man.

Robert Pattinson Knows More About Celebrity Drama Than You Do

Robert Pattinson—the brooding vampire turned Batman—has a secret vice that would make TMZ proud: he's obsessed with celebrity gossip. The famously private actor can apparently recite Hollywood hookups and breakups like baseball stats, catching interviewers off guard with his encyclopedic knowledge of pop culture drama.

This guilty pleasure makes perfect sense for someone who's admitted his own insecurities fuel his performances. "My insecurities about everything as a performer became my radar for what to do," he's said. The man who works with visionary directors like Denis Villeneuve is also the guy who could tell you which Kardashian is feuding with whom on any given Tuesday.

It's been going on for years—Pattinson dropping deep-cut gossip references in interviews while promoting his serious indie films. The contrast is delicious: art house darling by day, celebrity gossip consumer by night.

Gobble's Take: Even Batman needs to know who's dating who—it's research for playing complicated humans.
