Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are expecting ... a new Hulu special?

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are taking the next step in their relationship: starring in a new special for Hulu.

On Tuesday the streaming platform announced “‘Til Death Do Us Part: Kourtney & Travis.” In the special, the “Kardashians” star and the Blink-182 rocker will relive their various nuptials, including the lavish May 2022 ceremony in Portofino, Italy.

“This is our personal archive footage that we are sharing with the world,” Kardashian says in the trailer.

Months after their October 2021 engagement, Kardashian, 43, and Barker, 47, first tied the knot at a Las Vegas chapel in April 2022.

In May they made their marriage legal with a courthouse wedding in Santa Barbara. A week later came the big one in Portofino.

Kardashian, Barker and their loved ones descended on the Italian coast. The couple said their “I do’s” in front of friends and family — including Kourtney’s “Kardashians” co-stars Kim and Khloé Kardashian and Kris, Kendall and Kylie Jenner.

The upcoming Hulu special will provide an “inside look at the wedding of the year,” including how the ceremony’s gothic-glam feel came together with help from designer Domenico Dolce (half of luxury brand Dolce & Gabbana).

“Our wedding felt like time didn’t exist and it just felt perfect,” the bride tells Barker in the trailer.

In an Instagram post shared Tuesday, she reflected on the one-year anniversary of her Vegas wedding to Barker.

“It was one of the best nights of our lives, dreaming of a lifetime filled with fun adventures together,” she wrote.

“‘Til Death Do Us Part” premieres April 13 on Hulu, a month before “The Kardashians” returns to the stream for Season 3 in May.

Prince Harry due to testify in phone hacking case in June

LONDON — Prince Harry is expected to testify in a London courtroom in June in one of his phone hacking lawsuits against British tabloids, lawyers said Wednesday.

A trial in a case involving the Duke of Sussex and three others against the publisher of The Mirror is due to start May 9 in the High Court and last six to seven weeks.

While the trial begins three days after the coronation of his father, King Charles III, Harry is is not expected to take the witness stand until early or mid-June, according to a preliminary schedule of witnesses. It's not clear if Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, will attend the coronation.

Harry's testimony will be the second time he's been in the High Court in three months after his surprise appearance last week in a similar case.

Harry sat through parts of three days of hearings to see if the phone hacking suit he brought with Elton John, actresses Elizabeth Hurley and Sadie Frost, and others survives a legal challenge by the publisher of The Daily Mail.

His presence in court for the dense legal arguments indicated the importance of the case to Harry in his broader battle against the British press. He has several lawsuits against the news media and has said he wants to reform the tabloid press as part of his life's work.

British tabloid publishers have paid hundreds of millions of dollars to settle claims dating back well over a decade that journalists and private investigators hired by them hacked the voicemails of celebrities, politicians and others in the public eye.

The case against Mirror Group Newspapers alleges that Harry's voicemail messages were intercepted.

The Mirror publisher is contesting the claims and argues they were brought too late.

The May trial is a test case by four claimants against the Mirror out of a larger group of well-known people who sued the publisher.

Other claimants are Coronation Street actress Nikki Sanderson, comedian Paul Whitehouse’s ex-wife, Fiona Wightman, and actor Michael Turner.

Jeremy Renner wrote ‘last words’ to family after snowplow accident

“Avengers” actor Jeremy Renner wrote a goodbye note to his family after being critically injured in a Jan. 1 snowplow accident, he revealed in a new interview.

Choking back tears, Renner told ABC’s Diane Sawyer he typed out his “last words” while hospitalized. Renner was run over by the 14,000-pound snowplow near his Nevada home as he attempted to stop the moving vehicle from hitting his nephew, officials said.

“If I was there on my own, that would’ve been a horrible way to die, and surely I would’ve. Surely,” Renner said in a preview clip that aired Wednesday on “Good Morning America.” “But I wasn’t alone. It was my nephew, sweet Alex. And the rest of the cavalry came.”

The interview, airing 10 p.m. ET Thursday on ABC, is Renner’s first since the accident. The actor required surgery after suffering eight broken ribs, a collapsed lung, a broken clavicle and shoulder, and broken bones in his face and legs.

“I was awake through every moment ,” Renner said in an earlier preview clip.

Renner has chronicled his recovery on social media, including tweeting on Jan. 17 that he was home from the hospital. Late last month, Renner posted a video showing himself on an anti-gravity treadmill, offering the first look at the actor walking since the accident.

The California native debuted as the arrow-shooting superhero Hawkeye in 2011 and has repeatedly portrayed the character in Marvel movies since. His character is also the focal point of the 2021 Disney+ series “Hawkeye.”

Renner is a two-time Oscar nominee for “The Hurt Locker” and “The Town,” and also leads the crime drama series “Mayor of Kingstown” on Paramount+.
