Tony Parker's Lawyer Blindsides Eva Longoria

Published | Updated

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker both want their divorce to go smoothly, but Tony's sudden move Friday to file his own divorce papers angered Eva and complicated the process.

TMZ broke the story ... Tony filed his own divorce papers in Texas, just days after Eva filed in California. Sources tell us Eva's side had absolutely no idea Tony's lawyer filed the docs -- and, we're told, Eva was "very upset" when she found out.

According to our sources, both Tony and Eva want their prenup enforced. But when Eva's lawyer filed the divorce papers, the attorney checked the box that reserved Eva's right to collect spousal support -- something we're told is inconsistent with their prenup.

Sources say ... since Tony's lawyer felt Eva's divorce papers left open the possibility she would challenge the prenup, he wanted to protect his client by filing in Texas, which several experts tell us could be beneficial to Tony in terms of enforcing the prenup.

In the end, sources connected with the couple tell us Eva and Tony are in sync -- all was calm on Sunday -- but right now there are two divorce petitions in two states, and someone's gotta give.

Stay tuned ..

Lenny Dykstra's Doggy Could Be Repossessed

Published | Updated

Lenny Dykstra is so broke -- a judge may allow a creditor to repo his prized German Shepherd ... this according to new court documents.

The former MLB superstar turned financial guru turned alleged deadbeat dad had filed for bankruptcy to protect his remaining assets -- but one creditor has filed new documents, asking a judge for a green light to sell everything Dykstra still owns.

The creditor has filed a list of Dykstra's assets, totaling $715,000 -- which includes $100k in jewelry, $15k in art and a $10k German Shepherd.

Just last year, Dykstra had bragged to HBO's "Real Sports" the dog was a "champion."

Sucks that the poor poochie ended up with such a loser.

Tony Parker Files for Divorce In Texas

Published | Updated

Tony Parker has filed his own divorce petition against Eva Longoria in Texas, TMZ has learned, and it has all the markings of a legal battle.

Tony's divorce petition was filed in Bexar County, Texas. The stamp shows today's date. Sources connected with Tony confirm a document was filed.

Eva filed for divorce earlier in the week in Los Angeles, CA., setting up a legal battle over where the case will be heard. Texas divorces can be handled quickly -- in as little as 60 days.

According to the petition, which was filed by initials -- W.P and E.P. -- Tony states the reason for the divorce: "The marriage has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities between Petitioner and Respondent that destroys the legitimate ends of the marriage relationships and prevents any reasonable expectation of reconciliation."

Here's what's interesting ... As we first reported, the couple signed a prenup, but in Tony's petition he makes no mention of it. To the contrary, he writes, "Petitioner believes Petitioner and Respondent will enter into an agreement for the division of their estate." Since they've already signed a prenup, the word "will" is curious.

Tony's petition also states, "Petitioner owns certain separate property that is not part of the community estate of the parties ..."

Tony's lawyer did not return our call. And no comment so far from Eva's camp. And how's this for a twist ...Tony is being represented by attorney Richard Orsinger, the same lawyer who is repping Brent Barry, whose wife was allegedly sexting Tony.

Ex College Football Star: The Horrific Crash Photos

Published | Updated

Former University of Hawaii star Colt Brennan has been upgraded to stable condition this morning -- which is a borderline miracle when you see the gruesome photos TMZ has obtained of his car accident yesterday.

Brennan was the passenger in a vehicle being driven by his girlfriend when it collided head-on with another vehicle. The photos above were taken just moments after the crash, before paramedics arrived on scene. Brennan was still inside the vehicle at the time.

Brennan suffered broken ribs, a broken left collarbone, and head injuries. His girlfriend reportedly suffered a broken collarbone, while the driver of the other vehicle suffered leg injuries.

Brennan finished third in the Heisman voting in 2007 and holds numerous NCAA records -- but he never quite made it in the NFL and was cut from the Oakland Raiders back in September.

NFL Star Mike Williams Arrested for DUI

Published | Updated

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Williams was arrested for DUI last night -- but cops don't think the rookie superstar was drunk.

As ProFootballTalk first reported, Williams was pulled over in Hillsborough County, Florida around 2:48 AM after cops say he was going 57 in a 45 ... and weaving all over the place.

Cops say the 23-year-old failed a field sobriety test -- and eventually took two breathalyzer tests once he had been taken to a nearby police station. Cops say he blew a .061 and a .065 -- both under the legal limit of .08.

Law enforcement officials tell us Williams may have been under the influence of something that can't be detected by a breathalyzer -- so they asked him to submit to a urine test.

Williams obliged -- but the results of the pee test are still pending and could take weeks.

Williams was released early this morning -- and we're told he was "very cooperative with the arresting officer and agreed to everything that was requested.”

Tennis Legend -- $15,000 Surprise at Charity Auction

Published | Updated

Tennis legend Martina Navratilova just broke every rule in the charity auction handbook ... and it paid off -- TMZ has learned, the ex-athlete raised $15,000 for cystic fibrosis ... by interrupting the entire event.

Sources at the Pam Shriver Silver Tennis Ball -- a charity auction for cystic fibrosis in Maryland -- tell TMZ ... Martina was so moved by Wednesday's event, she stood up in the middle of the proceedings (above) ... grabbed the mic and offered a one-on-one tennis session on the spot in exchange for a $15,000 donation.

It might have been extremely awkward -- but who cares ... we're told someone instantly pledged the money ... and the auction was a resounding success.

Martina -- who runs her own LGBT charity called "The Rainbow Endowment" -- tells us, "I was happy to support Pam at her charity event last night. In these economically tough times, I know how much every dollar counts."

Eva/Tony Divorce -- He Wanted To File; Denies Sex

Published | Updated

Sources tell TMZ ... the divorce between Eva Longoria and Tony Parker was in the works for at least a week before Eva filed, contrary to the story Eva's people are telling. And Tony denies he ever had sex with an ex-teammate's wife.

Sources connected with Tony tell TMZ ... Tony did indeed have a "sexting relationship" with Erin Barry, the estranged wife of former San Antonio Spur Brent Barry, but it ended months ago. The sources insist, "They never had a physical relationship."

And sources connected with Tony tell TMZ ... Tony and Eva were well aware that the divorce would be filed. We're told Tony was planning on filing for divorce in San Antonio, Texas because it was more convenient, but, "Eva talked him out of it because she wanted to file in Los Angeles."

Sources also tell us -- contrary to the statement Eva's rep made to TMZ -- Eva not only knew she was filing for divorce, but it was timed to coincide with the Us Weekly interview.

As for why Tony and Eva are telling different stories about the divorce, a close friend of Tony's says it's simple: "She was into the whole PR thing. He wasn't."

Eva's people say Tony's story is untrue ... with one source telling TMZ, "Eva and Tony were still talking about working out the marriage up until the morning she filed."

RBM Group International filed a lawsuit today against Manny in L.A. County Superior Court -- alleging the pound-for-pound boxing champ signed a contract in 2009 in which he promised to record 12 songs ... but never did.

Brent Barry's Dad: 'I Feel Horrible for My Son'

Published | Updated

The father of San Antonio Spurs star Brent Barry -- whose wife Erin is reportedly the other woman in a Tony Parker love triangle -- tells TMZ he's worried that Brent will be "devastated" by the news.

Barry -- who played with Parker from 2004 to 2008 -- is in the middle of a divorce from his wife Erin Barry ... and earlier today, it was reported that she was the other woman who got in between Tony and Eva Longoria.
