RYAN PHILLIPPE’S EX CLAIMS DRUG USE CLOUDS HIS MEMORY: Ryan Phillippe‘s ex-girlfriend Elsie Hewitt, 22, has filed court papers claiming he won’t remember attacking her because he takes drugs, according to Page Six. His drug use allegedly included “cocaine, ecstasy, psychedelic mushrooms and steroids.” She is demanding records related to his training routine and workout schedule, including the 43-year-old’s use of supplements, drugs and alcohol be turned over, and that he be fined $3,160 for failing to turn the records over in a timely manner, after she requested them last year. Hewitt filed a $1 million suit against Phillippe in September of 2017, claiming he attacked her. He denies the allegations.

CAROLE RADIZWILL OUT AT RHONY: Carole Radizwill‘s reign on Real Housewives of New York City is dunzo. “I have decided to return to what I do best – journalism and producing,” Radziwill said Wednesday in a statement. “I am sure this does not come as a surprise to any of the viewers, all of whom have been supportive, encouraging and kind. My original curiosity about reality television has waned over the years and I am focusing on TV and writing projects that better suit my more steady temperament.” She joined in 2012 and became close with Bethenny Frankel, though their friendship soured recently. She continued: “I have worked with amazing producers, made great friends, and I’m thrilled to leave frenemies behind. I will remember this entire experience with delight, humor and veracious accuracy. Next.”
