Sean Hjelle's wife accuses Giants pitcher of abuse; team in contact with MLB

A day after San Francisco Giants' reliever Sean Hjelle's wife, Caroline, accused him of infidelity, family abandonment, and abuse in a viral TikTok, posted Friday, June 20, the team released a statement on the matter. "We are aware of these serious allegations," the statement read. "We have been in contact with MLB. These type of allegations fall under their jurisdiction and we won't be commenting further." The TikTok, which has garnered more than 3.5 million views and over 230,000 likes in less than 24 hours since it was posted, includes a caption that says, "When my MLB husband abandons us on Mothers Day a week after this (video was taken) once I finally found about his affairs and stopped putting up with his abuse, so I've been raising two boys alone." Hjelle did not comment to reporters before Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox, San Francisco Chronicle reported. Before the game, Giants manager Bob Melvin said Hjelle was available to pitch on Saturday. Melvin acknowledged he was aware of the accusations. "He told me about it last night," Melvin told reporters. "We've talked to MLB and at this point, it's in their jurisdiction so we can't comment on it any further." MLB News: Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski begins MLB career with 11 no-hit innings What else has Caroline Hjelle said on the matter? The San Jose Mercury News cited a Giants spokesperson, who said the couple is divorced. It is unclear when the couple officially ended their marriage, but Caroline has several posts on her TikTok alluding to her struggles as a solo parent, dating back to October 2024, when she posted this video for the "17 Diapers" trend, meant to detail the struggles of early parenthood. On April 8 of this year, Hjelle posted another TikTok with the hashtag "divorce", claiming she was "devastated" after "finding out all the lies." Has Hjelle been important to the Giants' success? The Giants have been one of the surprise teams of 2025 with a 42-34 record while sitting in second-place in the NL West. A large reason for that success has been their bullpen, which has posted an MLB-best 2.60 ERA. Hjelle played a sizable role in the Giants' bullpen in 2024, when he recorded a 3.90 ERA across 80⅔ innings. However, he's taken a large step back in 2025, with his ERA ballooning to 4.66, while his BB/9 has increased massively from 1.6 in 2024 to 6.5 this year. Hjelle has pitched only 9⅔ innings this season. MLB News: Padres' Robert Suarez suspended three games for hitting Shohei Ohtani with pitch

Kanye West Raises Eyebrows As He Storms Diddy's Trial Months After Begging For His Release

Kanye West has made an unannounced appearance at the high-profile sex crime trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs. Dressed in an eye-catching all-white outfit, the rapper's dramatic entrance raised more than a few eyebrows and left many wondering what his motive was behind the appearance. Following Kanye West's arrival, he interacted with fans for a bit before being met at the entrance of the courthouse by Diddy's son, Christian Combs. After days of speculation that Kanye West had been in contact with Diddy's family about possibly attending the embattled rapper's trial, the rumors were put to rest when the Yeezy founder made a dramatic entrance at the courthouse during today's hearing. According to The U.S. Sun, West pulled up around 11:20 a.m. in a blacked-out Maybach, accompanied only by his personal security team. He dressed in a striking all-white ensemble that starkly contrasted with his sleek ride and completed the look with dark sunglasses that shielded his eyes. As he made his way into the courthouse, West briefly interacted with a few bystanders, exchanging handshakes while paparazzi cameras flashed in rapid fire around him. At the steps of the courthouse, West was met by Diddy's son, Christian Combs. The two exchanged a hug for a moment before Christian led the "Donda" crooner into the building. As to why the rapper made the appearance, he said "yes" when a media outlet asked if he was there to support Diddy. He is said to have spent nearly an hour in the building but never actually entered the room where the trial is being held, according to NBC News. Prior to the start of Diddy's trial, West showed support for his music colleague by calling on President Donald Trump to pardon him. "PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF," the Yeezy CEO wrote in a tweet on X while tagging Trump. In a separate tweet, he slammed his industry colleagues for not showing support for the embattled rapper. "ALL THESE CELEBRITY N-GGAS AND B-TCHES IS P-SSY Y'ALL WATCH OUR BROTHER ROT AND NEVER SAY SH-T," West stated. In yet another tweet, West suggested that Diddy had been witch-hunted by the authorities. "THEY TRYNA PROVE A POINT AND YALL KNOW THAT YALL F-CKING KNOW THAT AND SITTING LAUGHING AT THE F-CKING INTERNET ON INSTAGRAM THIS MAN GAVE HIS LIFE TO US THIS MY IDOL THIS MY HERO," West remarked. Before he attended Diddy's trial, West had a video phone call with the embattled music mogul, obtained by The Shade Room. On their call, Diddy encouraged the Yeezy founder to "get behind the mic." "When I get out there, man, I want to see you f-cking tear down the stadiums. I need to see you back on that stage, f-cking actually rapping and f-cking performing and everything. I be dreaming of that sh-t," Diddy told West. It remains unclear when the conversation between them happened, but Diddy seemingly made sure to warn West to stay out of trouble as he attempted to describe what prison life looks like. "Tell you real from the front line. This sh-t is wicked, wicked, wicked, so you be careful," Diddy said. "You can't do nothing for just... I need you out there, you hear me?" "I hear you, yes, sir," West answered. The rapper's trial, which began last month, is expected to last around eight weeks. He is facing two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, and one count of racketeering. Diddy has pleaded not guilty to all charges and reportedly rejected a plea deal ahead of the trial. Amid the trial, several witnesses have testified on behalf of the prosecutors, including Diddy's ex-girlfriend Cassandra "Cassie" Ventura. She testified to participating in the rapper's "freak-offs" and being blackmailed by him in instances when she refused his requests. If Diddy is ultimately convicted of all the charges, the rapper potentially faces life in prison.
