After a year-long battle, a judge has officially declared Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner divorced.

Actor/director Simon Baker admits to drunk driving, pleading guilty to a charge of driving under the influence and avoiding further conviction. Baker was originally confronted by police on July 20 after driving erratically in the early hours of the morning. However, officers were not able to conduct the standard electronic breathalyzer test due to a system outage at the time. In other sobriety tests carried out, it was reported that the actor displayed other signs of intoxication, and even admitted to consuming four glasses of wine in the 8 hours prior. The actor recently appeared in front of a judge, pleading guilty and showing remorse for his actions. Future jail time was avoided as he was released on a nine-month good behavior bond.
