Billy Crudup gave a rare glimpse inside his parenting relationship with ex Mary-Louise Parker, 22 years after he left her for Claire Danes.

“Well, without commenting on any of our…,” Crudup told the Times in an interview published Thursday.

The “Weeds” star — whom Crudup had been dating for seven years — was seven months pregnant when he began a relationship with his “Stage Beauty” co-star.

Crudup and Parker’s son, 21-year-old William Atticus Parker, has followed in his parents’ footsteps and is now a writer, director and actor.

“He has, through the mash-up of the two of us, been endowed with superpowers for theatricality,” Crudup told the outlet.

“He’s such a badass,” he added. “Mary-Louise and I appeared in most of his films.”

Crudup, now 57, and Parker, 61, met as co-stars in the Broadway production of “Bus Stop” in 1996.

The “Morning Show” actor met Danes — who was then dating Ben Lee — in 2003, and after both left their respective partners, they went public in 2004.

Danes and Crudup went their separate ways in 2007, but the widely publicized romance left an impression on all involved.

Danes later told Howard Stern that she “didn’t quite know what those consequences would be” when she fell in love with Crudup.

“You have to live with the mistakes that you make,” Crudup told the Times back in 2017.

Parker, meanwhile, detailed her heartbreak in “Dear Mr. You,” her 2015 memoir.

“I am pregnant and alone. It hurts to even breathe,” she wrote in part via a note to a cab driver who was transporting her to a doctor appointment.

In 2007, Parker went on to adopt daughter Ash, 18, from Ethiopia, and she was briefly engaged to “Weeds” co-star Jeffrey Dean Morgan in 2008.

Danes, now 46, married Hugh Dancy in 2009, and the couple has since welcomed three children.

Crudup tied the knot with Oscar winner Naomi Watts in 2023 — and despite their complicated past, Parker had only supportive words for Crudup and Watts.

“I wish them well,” Parker told the Guardian.

“And absolutely, I honestly of course wish them every happiness because that’s my son’s father. So I’m happy for them. I’m happy they found each other.”

Millie Bobby Brown is shutting down the noise.
The actress says she “felt safe” working alongside David Harbour on Stranger Things, despite resurfaced claims of on-set bullying involving the longtime co-stars.

Speaking about their emotionally heavy scenes, Brown insisted there was never a moment of discomfort:
“Of course I felt safe — we’ve worked together for ten years. I feel safe with everyone on that set.”

Playing a father–daughter duo for nearly a decade, Brown explained that their natural closeness made intense moments easier to navigate.
“We’ve had some very intense scenes, especially in Season 2. We’ve built a strong bond because of that,” she told Deadline.

Brown added that she and Harbour worked closely throughout the final season, calling their dynamic a “labor of love” she’s eager for fans to finally witness.
“Those Hopper and Eleven scenes are going to be incredibly impactful. Working with David always pushes me to bring my A-game because I know he will.”

Her remarks arrive weeks after reports surfaced that Brown allegedly filed a bullying and harassment complaint against Harbour ahead of filming Season 5 in early 2024 — a claim insiders say involved “pages and pages of accusations,” though none of a sexual nature.

Executive producer Shawn Levy has since dismissed parts of the circulating reports as “wildly inaccurate,” emphasizing the importance of maintaining a safe, respectful environment on set.

Ryan Cabrera is fully cheering on ex-girlfriend Ashlee Simpson as she steps back into the spotlight — and he’s eager to see her upcoming Las Vegas shows for himself.

“Everybody’s excited about it. All my friends are messaging me like, ‘Hey, I’m going to Vegas — can we go see Ashlee?’ And I’m like, ‘Dude, I would love to see that show.’ Even my wife wants to go,” Cabrera, 43, told Us Weekly while celebrating the 20th anniversary of “On the Way Down.” “I even messaged Tina [Simpson] when I saw the news, and it made me want to revisit those albums again.”

Cabrera and Simpson, 41, dated in 2004 and famously documented their early careers on MTV’s The Ashlee Simpson Show. That same year, Simpson also starred in Cabrera’s “On the Way Down” music video.

Though both have married other people — Cabrera to WWE star Alexa Bliss and Simpson to Evan Ross — the respect between them remains strong.

“Ashlee was always an incredible performer,” Cabrera said. “She stepped back to be a mom and a wife, but now she’s got the bug again. It’s time for her to get back on stage and let those creative juices flow. From what I’ve heard, she’s crushing it. I haven’t seen the show yet, but I want to. And she should be doing more — touring, making new music — all of it.”

Simpson recently announced that her I Am Me shows at Voltaire at The Venetian Resort will return for two more weekends in January 2025.

“I think she influenced a lot of the female artists coming up today,” Cabrera added. “I bet she’ll do some collaborations next year — and they’re going to be fire. I wish nothing but the best for everyone over there.”

As Simpson revives her biggest hits, Cabrera is celebrating a milestone of his own. For the 20th anniversary of “On the Way Down,” he teamed up with AJ McLean of Backstreet Boys, Joey Fatone of *NSYNC, Drake Bell, Walk the Moon’s Nick Petricca, Taylor Hanson, and Nash Overstreet for a star-studded collaboration.

“We put together a team — boy band legends, rock stars, emo guys. It was this wild mix of artistry, and they made the song what it is,” Cabrera explained. “I remember telling them, ‘Don’t do what you’ve heard. Don’t do what I did. Do your thing.’ And I think they had fun with it.”

Two decades later, Cabrera — now married and a dad — is still performing across the country.

“We’re continuing the Pop 2000 Tour, which goes into year eight next year,” he said. “As long as people keep showing up, we’re not going to stop playing.”
