WHAT’S GOING ON WITH STAN LEE? The 95-year-old comic legend Stan Lee appears to be surrounded by people who have turned against each other. His wife Joan died a year ago, and ever since, conflicting reports have been emerging about his health and well-being. The Hollywood Reporter compiled the reports from a variety of sources, about several members of his inner circle, including his 67-year-old daughter J.C., memorabilia dealer Keya Morgan, former publicist Jerry Olivarez and road manager and Stan Lee museum proprietor Max Anderson. Several pieces of alleged evidence point to a battle for control of his money and possible elder abuse. The key takeaway from the piece is that no one appears to have Lee’s best interests in mind.

WHY THE OBAMAS ARE NOT INVITED TO THE ROYAL WEDDING: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have decided to nix the Obamas-and all other politicians-from their wedding guest list. “It has been decided that an official list of political leaders – both U.K. and international – is not required for Prince Harry and Ms. Markle’s wedding. Her Majesty’s Government was consulted on this decision, which was taken by The Royal Household,” a Kensington Palace spokesman said Tuesday. While Harry and Meghan have become close with the Obamas, the guest list is being reserved for long-standing friends, the palace explained.

COMEDY CENTRAL TO ROAST BRUCE WILLIS: Bruce Willis is getting roasted by Comedy Central, and the Die Hard star can’t wait to take whatever the network throws at him on. “This ain’t the first time I’ll be tied to a chair and held hostage by a group of humorless a–holes for a couple hours,” Willis said.

ANGELINA JOLIE REVEALS LESSONS SHE IS PASSING TO HER CHILDREN FROM QUEEN ELIZABETH: Angelina Jolie is appearing in the upcoming ITV special The Queen’s Green Planet. In it, she visits Namibia with her six children to shed light on forest conservation; she also discusses the lessons she is passing on to her children, some of which she learned from the Queen herself. “What it comes down to is you say to the kids, ‘You know really, you don’t know her, you can’t understand all that it means to be a queen and all that,” she says, according to People. “But you try to say, ‘You know she’s just this really lovely lady who really cares about people around the world, and she really cares about the future, and she wants your grandkids and her grandkids to be able to be running around, enjoying nature and other cultures, and the importance of other cultures.’ She thinks that really matters and I agree with her.”
