Bill Belichick's daughter-in-law faces arrest order in North Carolina after skipping court appearance: report
A North Carolina judge reportedly issued an order of the arrest of Bill Belichick’s daughter-in-law on Monday after she allegedly failed to show up for court over a speeding violation.
Jen Belichick, the wife of North Carolina Tar Heels football defensive coordinator Steve Belichick, was stopped by the North Carolina State Highway Patrol on May 21 for allegedly driving 88 mph in a 70 mph in Brunswick County, the California Post reported, citing court records.

She was cited for misdemeanor speeding and was due to appear in court Friday.
Belichick didn’t show up to court, which led to the order for her arrest. A court official told the California Post that she has three options, now. She could file a motion to recall the order, hire an attorney to defend her in the case or turn herself in to authorities.

She has not commented on the order. Fox News Digital reached out to a Brunswick County clerk for comment.
She’s been married to Steve Belichick for about 10 years and the two have multiple children together. For more than a year, she’s seemingly been in a feud with Bill Belichick’s girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.
Jen Belichick slammed Hudson over her decision to cut off an interview question when Bill Belichick sat down with CBS News in May 2025. She reportedly had a confrontation with Hudson inside the Tar Heels head coach’s office over a number of issues.
Donald Trump accuses 'fake news' of wanting US to lose Iran war, blasts NYT reporting
President Donald Trump accused the "fake news" media of wanting the United States to lose its war with Iran during a Monday interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, as he defended the military campaign and threatened another wave of strikes against Tehran.
Trump argued that Iran's military had been decimated but continued to receive favorable news coverage.
"All they do is talk and they have fake press. They do very well with the fake press, but because the fake news wants us to lose," Trump said.
TRUMP HAS IRAN ON THE ROPES — AND CRITICS STILL DON’T GET HIS EDGE
The president singled out The New York Times while claiming the newspaper had recently reported that Iran was in a stronger position than it had been before the U.S.-Israeli military campaign began.
"It’s not even, I mean, The New York Times, they actually said a week ago — I can’t imagine they say it now, but think of it. They have no Navy, have no Air Force, have no anything. They have no military, they have nothing," Trump said.
He also cited what he described as surging inflation in Iran while continuing his criticism of the Times.
TRUMP’S 'ECONOMIC FURY' SQUEEZES IRAN — BUT CAN TEHRAN OUTLAST THE PRESSURE?
"And the Times said, and their inflation, by the way, just hit 301%, from 5%. They said, ‘Oh, they’re in better shape now than they were four months ago before I started,’" Trump said.
Trump did not identify the specific Times article or author he was referencing.
The president warned that additional American attacks were imminent following renewed exchanges of missile and drone strikes between the two countries.
"We’re going to hit them very hard tonight, and we’re going to hit them hard tomorrow, and there’s not a damn thing they can do about it," Trump said.

Trump specifically floated striking Pickaxe Mountain, a heavily fortified underground complex near Iran’s damaged Natanz uranium enrichment facility.
"Pickaxe is a possible, you know, a possible target for a nice big fat shot right near the front door," he said.
The president said American surveillance capabilities were tracking the location and claimed Iran had not resumed nuclear development there.
"We’re watching it closely. We see no activity there. They’re not doing well with their nuclear. Every time we hear about it, we blow it up, so they don't like talking about it, but we'll probably give Pickaxe a shot relatively soon," Trump said.
Pickaxe Mountain contains two deeply buried tunnel complexes that experts assess may be beyond the reach of the powerful bunker-busting bombs in the U.S. arsenal, according to Reuters.
International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors had never been granted access to Pickaxe Mountain. Analysis of satellite imagery from late June showed vehicle activity near the site's western tunnel entrances and possible continuing construction or fortification work.
Trump also argued that Iran’s leaders could not be trusted with nuclear weapons.
"And frankly, if they ever had a nuclear weapon, they’d use it within one day," Trump said.
Trump’s remarks came as U.S. Central Command announced that it would resume its blockade of vessels traveling to or from Iranian ports Tuesday. The military said humanitarian shipments would be allowed through but warned that force could be used against ships that failed to comply.
Bryce Harper blames FanDuel for Cameo controversy after reading sportsbook's name on camera
Philadelphia Phillies star Bryce Harper is scrambling to explain his role in Major League Baseball's latest sports betting controversy.
Harper finally broke his silence over a controversial Cameo video he recorded in November 2024 for gambler Terry Thompson.
Harper says he believed he was recording a holiday greeting.
Instead, the message landed in the middle of a lawsuit alleging FanDuel targeted Thompson, who wagered $18.5 million with sportsbooks and lost more than $1.5 million on the platform alone.
Thompson's lawsuit against FanDuel and several other defendants has now dragged Harper into the middle of the controversy.
Facing intense public scrutiny, Harper released a statement on his Instagram Stories and attempted to distance himself from FanDuel.
"I joined Cameo to engage with fans through paid personalized videos," Harper wrote. "What happened here went beyond anything I knew about or approved."
BRYCE HARPER VIDEO TO FANDUEL USER WITH GAMBLING ADDICTION UNDER REVIEW BY PENNSYLVANIA OFFICIALS
Harper claimed he received what appeared to be a personal request, rather than a corporate business order, to wish "Terry" a happy Thanksgiving.
"FanDuel then put its own logo on the video and used it as a gambling promotion," Harper wrote. "I did not know FanDuel would do this, I did not consent to it, and FanDuel had no right to do it."
There is a glaring problem with Harper's explanation.
The instructions he received, and the exact script he read on camera, explicitly mentioned the sportsbook.
In the footage, Harper looks into the lens and tells Thompson he is reaching out because "your host Bryttanni from FanDuel" wanted to ensure he had an extra-special holiday.
It is difficult to claim complete ignorance when you actively read the words "from FanDuel" out loud.
Harper said he read the script "in good faith."
But for a superstar like Harper, reading a sportsbook's name in a paid video without asking a single question is a tough look.
Now, attention turns to whether Major League Baseball takes a closer look.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board is already investigating FanDuel's use of celebrity messages to target high-roller VIP bettors.
Whether Major League Baseball believes Harper crossed any line remains to be seen. While Harper did not bet on baseball, the situation is likely to draw attention because it involves a promotional message tied to a sportsbook.
Fox News Digital/OutKick reached out to FanDuel, the Phillies and Harper's rep for comment.
At best, Harper was incredibly naive.
He failed to recognize that a script referencing a "FanDuel host" amounted to a gambling promotion.

At worst, he accepted a paid request without asking enough questions and is now backtracking after the ugly reality of sports betting addiction landed in the spotlight.
Either way, it is a bad look for one of baseball's biggest stars. Next time, Harper might want to read the fine print before hitting record.

FIFA eyes World Cup format expansion from 48 to 64 teams: Should the US be the permanent host?
After widespread complaints and consternation around the 2026 FIFA World Cup from European fans, commentators, and certain domestic sportswriters, there's no question that this year's tournament has been a gigantic, tremendous success.
The group stage alone set an attendance record for any World Cup, as fans from around the world traveled to the United States to see their teams play. Local fans turned out in full force as well, with neutral fans spending gigantic sums of money on tickets just to see the top level of international soccer.
Ratings have been massive, with the U.S. men's national team breaking records for most-watched English-language soccer broadcast during their loss to Belgium.
USA-BELGIUM BECOMES MOST-WATCHED SOCCER TELECAST IN US HISTORY WITH STAGGERING VIEWERSHIP NUMBERS
One of the changes to the format in 2026 was the expansion to 48 teams from the traditional 32. While many purists were skeptical, for the most part, it's been viewed as a success. Though it limits the likelihood of a major tournament favorite going out in the Group Stage, it's allowed smaller countries to participate and in some cases, become surprising fan-favorites. Cape Verde, for example, not only advanced past the first round, but pushed Argentina to the brink.
And FIFA, an organization never shy about looking to enhance its financial picture, wants to take advantage. Gianni Infantino, FIFA's president, acknowledged that discussions will start immediately about future expansion.
"This is certainly an issue that will be looked at and discussed in the relevant committees after this World Cup," he told Swiss broadcaster Blue Sport when asked about reports of a 64-team format. "When you organize a World Cup, it's important that you organize it for the whole world. It's not just Europe and South America, but the entire world, effectively. Every nation should be able to dream of taking part in the World Cup.
"We can see that the quality of the teams is extremely high, and it's getting higher and higher everywhere in the world. If you don't give smaller countries the chance to participate in the World Cup, they also lose the incentive to keep improving."
That makes some sense, both competitively and financially. More teams means more games. More games means more broadcasts, higher fees, and more fans buying tickets. But Infantino is also correct that, for soccer's international governing body, encouraging more participation and investment is important and valuable.
That said, there are two other major issues that arise from a 64-team format. The years-long qualifying format will become a bit of a farce, as virtually every big country would now qualify easily. And, for those same angry Europeans, how many countries have the number of venues necessary to hold a 64-team tournament in just over a month?
DEMOCRATS REPORTEDLY FORCED TO 'GRAPPLE UNCOMFORTABLY' WITH WORLD CUP SUCCESS UNDER DONALD TRUMP
The answer? Well, it's pretty much just the United States. A World Cup that large could have 128 matches, if FIFA continues with a 32-team second round. And if they want to keep the current length, a necessity given the club season schedule, that's 128 matches over just 38 days. FIFA used 16 venues to host the current 104 match tournament. Expansion would likely mean another four stadiums, pushing it to 20.
CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM
The United Kingdom has 11 stadiums with a capacity of more than 60,000 seats. Spain has just five, with one just over 60k. Germany has four, while Italy and France have just two each. So you'd have to combine the UK, Spain and Germany to reach 20 large venues.
The US, meanwhile, has roughly 75 stadiums with a 60,000 seat capacity. It has the advantage of being one country, minimizing travel hassles between the UK and continental Europe. And with that many large, modern stadiums that don't require significant updates, FIFA can sell the most tickets while minimizing costs to the host nation.
So should the US become the permanent World Cup site? Other countries and federations would surely object, but the story of the 2026 event has been that America and its people have been fantastic hosts to visiting fans. Maybe the USMNT's missed opportunity in a home tournament won't be as big of a frustration as it seemed.
Democrats running to replace Platner in key Senate race call for ICE to be 'abolished'
PORTLAND, Maine - Some of the leading contenders in the race to replace former candidate Graham Platner as the Democratic Senate nominee in Maine are amplifying calls to abolish ICE after a fatal shooting by federal immigration officers in the northern New England state.
Hours after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on Monday shot and killed a man in Biddeford, which is located about 15 miles south-west of Portland, four of the candidates joined hundreds of protesters who marched by the shooting site.
The shooting comes as the battle to replace Platner is heating up, and will likely boost immigration as an issue in a crucial Senate race that may determine the Senate majority.
"I think we are at the point where ICE needs to be abolished," Nirav Shah, the former director of the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, told Fox News Digital. "ICE in its current form has shown itself incapable of doing its job."
PLATNER EXITS SENATE RACE AMID SCANDALS AND CHORUS OF CALLS TO DROP OUT
Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows, speaking with reporters, said, "This is not acceptable in America. A young man, a dad, has been killed by ICE...This must stop. We need to get ICE out of the streets."
Troy Jackson, a former state Senate president, took to social media immediately after the shooting to write, "Abolish ICE."
Jackson held a sign at the protest that called for abolishing ICE, and reiterated that he's been calling for the dismantling of the agency for months.
Paige Loud, a social worker and former congressional candidate who has also launched a Senate bid, also attended the protest.
"We must abolish ICE and prosecute the leaders of these operations that are destroying communities," she said in a social media post.
The incident in Maine is the second in a week when ICE agents have used deadly force, following the fatal shooting during a traffic stop in Houston, Texas.
DEMOCRACY ’26: STAY UP TO DATE WITH THE FOX NEWS ELECTION HUB
The latest incidents are reigniting protests and scrutiny of federal agents months after the shooting deaths in Minneapolis, Minnesota at the beginning of the year of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Those shootings drew weeks of national coverage and sharp debate over President Donald Trump's ramped-up deportation efforts amid his administration's crackdown on illegal immigration.
The Maine attorney general's office, which is investigating Monday's shooting along with the FBI, said initial statements suggest the motorist who was the target of the enforcement operation was attempting to flee in the direction of an ICE agent.
SIGN UP TO GET THE POLITICS NEWSLETTER
Two immigration advocacy groups said the man who was killed was authorized to work in the U.S. and had a Social Security number.
The shooting in Maine came three days after Platner ended his campaign amid mounting controversies and allegations of sexual misconduct that he had repeatedly denied, and a chorus of calls from top Democrats in Maine, the nation's capital, and across the country to drop out of the race immediately.
A populist Democrat who was backed last September by progressive champion Sen. Bernie Sanders, Platner was challenging longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins in a high-profile, combustible and expensive race in Maine, which is one of a handful that will determine if the GOP holds onto its slim Senate majority in November's midterm elections.
Seven Democrats have filed to run for the nomination, which will be determined by roughly 600 voting delegates at a July 25 convention held by the Maine Democratic Party.
Collins said in a statement following the shooting that "a full and impartial investigation of what happened" was needed.
Hours later, Collins said in another statement that Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Markwayne Mullin "informed me that the Boston office of the DHS Inspector General has taken over the investigation of the Biddeford shooting in cooperation with the FBI."
One of Collins' Senate offices is located in Biddeford, and protesters marched to the office to chant, "Vote her out."

Hawthorne played five years with the Steelers, splitting time between running back and a wide receiver. He appeared in 59 games, had 522 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns. He also had 55 catches for 710 yards and three touchdown catches.
He played three seasons with the New England Patriots and one more with the Indianapolis Colts. He made a game-changing play in the 1985 AFC Championship for the Patriots, recovering a fumble on the opening kickoff of the second half. New England won the game and advanced to Super Bowl XX.
He finished his career playing in 105 games with 11 total touchdowns and 1,639 yards from scrimmage.
Trump-backed Daylight Saving Time bill clears key House hurdle
A bipartisan push to make Daylight Saving Time permanent is heading for a chamber-wide vote after clearing a key House hurdle.
The House Rules Committee on Monday teed up a floor vote on the Sunshine Protection Act, which would allow states to enact Daylight Saving Time year-round — with an option to opt out. The committee approved the rule in a 6-4 vote.
The measure has the support of many coastal lawmakers and President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly urged Congress to make Daylight Saving Time permanent and end the twice-a-year ritual of changing clocks — a practice currently observed by every state except Hawaii and most of Arizona.
Proponents argue that resetting clocks has negative health impacts, while permanent Daylight Saving Time would boost outdoor recreation, tourism and economic activity, among other benefits.
CONGRESS EYES RARE BIPARTISAN HOUSING WIN WITH OR WITHOUT TRUMP'S HELP
Most Americans already set their clocks forward one hour each spring to preserve more evening daylight before "falling back" one hour in November.
"Americans are overwhelmingly supportive of this policy and want to end the practice of ‘springing forward’ and ‘falling back.' Locking the clock all year long would have positive impacts on sleep schedules, energy conservation, motor vehicle safety, and our economy," Chairman Brett Guthrie, R-Ky., said in an opening statement Monday.
"In practice, this change would mean more time for people to exercise outside, visit family, attend concerts and sporting events, attract customers to their retail businesses, and more."
"Floridians and Americans across the country are tired of the biannual time change, and the evidence is clear that permanent daylight saving time can improve public health, reduce traffic accidents, lower crime and encourage more outdoor activity," Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., who authored the measure, previously said in a May news release.
"Ending the clock change is a commonsense reform that will improve everyday life for millions of Americans," he added.
The legislation’s momentum comes after the House Energy and Commerce Committee overwhelmingly passed the measure 48-1 in May.
"It’s time that people can stop worrying about the ‘Clock,’ not to mention all of the work and money that is spent on this ridiculous, twice-yearly production," Trump wrote following the Sunshine Protection Act’s advancement out of committee. "It will also be a very nice WIN for the Republican Party. Take it! We are going with the far more popular alternative, Saving Daylight, which gives you a longer, brighter Day — And who can be against that — This is an easy one!"
SLEEP DOCTOR REVEALS THE BRUTAL HEALTH DOWNSIDE OF DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME
Roughly 20 states have already passed legislation that would make Daylight Saving Time permanent if Congress were to authorize the practice. Alabama, South Carolina, Oregon, Maine and Florida are among those places.
But opponents, including several medical organizations, argue that permanent standard time — which provides more sunlight in the morning — would be the healthier option because it would more closely align with the body’s natural circadian rhythms.
Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, D-Pa., proposed amending the bill with language from her co-sponsored Sunshine for Our Kids Act, which would make standard time permanent nationwide. The amendment was quickly rejected.
Scanlon argued that permanent daylight saving time would pose significant health and safety risks by leaving more Americans — particularly children — in darkness during morning hours. She also pointed to the nation's brief experiment with year-round daylight saving time in 1974, which Congress abandoned after widespread public backlash.
Rep. Nanette Barragán, D-Calif., was also the lone lawmaker to oppose the legislation during the Energy and Commerce Committee markup in May, citing concerns that year-round daylight saving time could negatively affect children’s health and sleep schedules.
Some conservative lawmakers have also argued that GOP leadership should be focused on what they describe as more pressing legislative issues, including legislation codifying Trump's border security executive orders and the stalled SAVE America Act.
"Republicans are majoring in the minors — fiddling with the clocks while the country burns," Rep. Keith Self, R-Texas, a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, wrote Monday.
The House has already passed versions of the SAVE America Act multiple times, but the measure has struggled to overcome the Senate's legislative filibuster.
The Senate unanimously passed a version of the Sunshine Protection Act in 2022, but it died in the House amid opposition, including from lawmakers who voiced concerns about darker morning hours in parts of the country during the winter.
Maine ICE shooting victim was not target of arrest warrant, Sen. King’s office says after earlier DHS account
A man fatally shot by an ICE agent in Maine on Monday was not the intended target of the arrest warrant federal agents were executing, Sen. Angus King’s office said, marking a shift from what the senator had told reporters hours earlier after speaking with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin.
In an interview with Fox News, King, I-Maine, confirmed that Mullin later informed the senator the "victim was not the target of the warrant."
"When I first talked to him, he said the person was the target of the warrant. He called me back. He initiated a call to me to say he had learned subsequently that he was not the target of the warrant," King said. "So he corrected the information he had."
King had said earlier Monday afternoon that Mullin told him the man who was killed in Biddeford, a coastal city roughly 15 miles southwest of Portland, was the target of an immigration enforcement operation and had been ordered to leave the country.
ICE SAYS OFFICER SHOT AND KILLED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT WHO TRIED TO RAM HIM WITH CAR IN HOUSTON
"About 20 minutes ago, I talked to Secretary Markwayne [Mullin] of the Department of Homeland Security about the incident in Biddeford," King told reporters Monday afternoon.
"The individual who has been killed is a male in his 20s. That's all I know about him," King continued. "He had been given an order to leave the country. He was in a vehicle – pulled out in the vehicle, and the term the secretary used was ‘weaponized’ the vehicle and was shot by an ICE agent."
King said at the time that, based on what Mullin had told him, the man who was shot was the target of the immigration enforcement operation.
"He had given me incorrect information," King told Fox News. "Once he learned it was incorrect, he let me know which I respect."
In a statement to Fox News Digital, an ICE spokesperson said that agents were conducting "targeted surveillance on the last known address of an illegal alien with a final order of removal."
"An illegal alien departed the residence in a vehicle. ICE law enforcement attempted to conduct a vehicle stop. The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and fearing for public safety an officer discharged his weapon," they said. "The driver of the vehicle was struck, and emergency services were immediately contacted. He passed away from his injuries."
"The Biddeford Police Department and FBI responded to the scene," the spokesperson continued. "DHS OIG has been notified and like all discharge of firearms this will be investigated. This is a developing situation, and we will update the public when more information is available."
Earlier on Monday, King said in a press conference that he pressed Mullin for a "full, transparent and open investigation" into the fatal shooting, which he said would be led by the FBI because it involved a federal operation.
"What I said to the Secretary was, we want a full, transparent and open investigation of this matter," King said. "And one of the problems is apparently – and again, everything I'm saying is what I know now, certain facts may come out – but apparently there are no cameras. Body cameras were not on the agents. So we have no video evidence of what occurred in this case."
NEW YORKER SUING ICE AFTER OFFICERS WENT TO HIS HOME TO WARN HIM OVER CRITICISM OF AGENCY
King said Mullin committed to him that the investigation would be fair and transparent.
"It's a tragedy whenever there's a loss of life. We don't know the circumstances at this point, but my statement to Secretary [Mullin], I said, ‘I'm going to say that you have committed to me that this investigation will be full, fair and transparent. Can I say that?' He said, ‘Yes, absolutely.’ So that's the status of this matter right now."
King said he intends to monitor the investigation closely.
"And that's why I was so explicit with the secretary. I know him from working with him in the Senate before he became secretary. I have no reason to think that he's not telling me the truth. But my motto, as with Ronald Reagan, is trust but verify," King said. "And I intend to stay on this. And to be sure that we can verify what happened and also whether the investigation is proceeding in a full, comprehensive and transparent way."
King said investigators must determine whether the man’s actions with the vehicle justified the use of deadly force.
"And the question is, what did he do with his vehicle? Were officers threatened? Was this were the threats rising to the level that justified deadly force? That's what this investigation is all about," King said. "And I certainly intend to, stay after it, to do everything I can to be sure the investigation is as transparent and thorough as possible, and that our state and local officials aren't frozen out from the involvement with this project, with this investigation."
Following the incident, protesters rallied outside of Sen. Susan Collins’, R-Maine, office and entered through the front doors, chanting "vote her out." Several people were also seen hanging anti-ICE signs in the windows.
King said the community had a right to demand answers.
"I think the community has every right to ask questions and to bring pressure to bear on, on the federal government for straight answers and honest answers," King said. "And whatever evidence there is should be made public and should be made public soon. And, I think the role of the community is to express concern."
"We don't yet really know what happened, but to ensure that we find out what happened and that if there were actions that were unjustified, that those who committed those actions will be held accountable," he added.
In a statement, Collins said the FBI is investigating.
"The shooting in Biddeford requires a full and impartial investigation of what happened," Collins said.
Gov. Janet Mills, D-Maine, said in a statement that she had been briefed on the fatal incident "involving Federal law enforcement." She added that state police were cooperating with local and federal officials.
The Biddeford Police Department said it responded to calls about an occurrence at Pool and Hill streets that "involved U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel."
The Maine Immigrants’ Rights Coalition and Presente! Maine identified the man who was killed as a 26-year-old Colombian man.
"He was a member of our community, a neighbor, and a human being whose life was cut tragically short. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, loved ones, and everyone now grieving this unimaginable loss," the groups said in a joint statement.
"A 26-year-old man came to Maine to live and work, and now his family is mourning his death following an incident involving ICE," the statement continued. "This is devastating, enraging, and unacceptable. His loved ones deserve answers, and the public deserves a full and transparent account of what happened."
Fox News Digital has reached out to Sen. King's office and the FBI for additional details.

Jennifer Lopez's bold Wimbledon hat divides fans over Royal Box etiquette
Jennifer Lopez made a bold style statement with an oversized hat at Wimbledon over the weekend, but her attention-grabbing accessory sparked controversy on social media.
The 56-year-old actress and singer faced backlash after wearing a large, wide-brimmed Ralph Lauren hat while attending the Wimbledon men's singles final at the All England Club’s Centre Court in London on Sunday.
Fans quickly took to social media to express their disapproval of Lopez's headgear after spotting her sitting in the Royal Box next to Tom Hiddleston at the tennis tournament.

"That’s obnoxious," one X user wrote. "She needs 2 extra seats just for the hat."
"This type of hat is inappropriate for such events! You should do your homework lady!" another critic commented.
"Just so you know, with that hat, guests that paid a lot of money to be right there, can’t watch because you like to look good for Instagram," one social media user added.
"Ridiculous hat," another chimed in. "If I was sitting behind her words would be had."
"Imagine being sat behind that hat. You couldn’t see anything. Should be a rule against that," one detractor wrote.
"Jenny from the Block, blocking views," an X user joked.
"Love the outfit just not the hat for this kind of event," a fan wrote. "First, it looks a bit like a crumpled paper bag. Maybe the Kentucky Derby because it's a hat show. But tennis matches are conservative, crisp, & clean so the attire should match the sport. You have great hair. Work it."
However, some fans defended "The Wedding Planner" star's courtside look, with many noting that Lopez later removed the hat while enjoying the match with Hiddleston.
"She took the hat off. People leave this woman alone," one fan wrote on social media.
Other fans praised the actress's appearance, including the statement-making accessory.
"Big hat energy," a fan wrote on X. "JLo looks absolutely adorable!"

"Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes," another agreed.
"She looks stunning in a hat," one X user wrote.
"Love her, she looks amazing as usual," another fan commented. "What an elegant lady."
"JLo & Tom Hiddleston already living their best tennis life," an X user wrote. "Pure elegance in the stands!"
Fox News Digital has reached out to Lopez's representative for comment.
While hats are not prohibited in Wimbledon's invitation-only Royal Box, guests are generally expected to remove large or wide-brimmed hats while seated if they block others' sightlines.
Per Wimbledon's website, "Ladies are asked not to wear hats, as they tend to obscure the vision of those seated behind them."
However, Wimbledon reportedly eased its usual hat etiquette amid soaring temperatures as the United Kingdom grapples with its third heatwave of the summer and even provided official fedoras to guests.
Along with Lopez and Hiddleston, other celebrity guests seated in the Royal Box for the men's final included Nicole Kidman, Andrew Garfield, Cynthia Erivo, Anna Wintour and Ben Stiller. Royals in attendance included Prince William, Kate Middleton and their children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
Jannik Sinner of Italy, who is ranked No.1 in the world, defeated German player Alexander Zverev in four sets to capture his second straight Wimbledon title.
Middleton, 44, who serves as royal patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, presented trophies to both Sinner and Linda Nosková of the Czech Republic, who won the women's singles final on Saturday.
The Princess of Wales was also spotted wearing a wide-brimmed hat at the tournament over the weekend, though she mostly removed it while seated and when presenting the Wimbledon trophies.
Newsom blasted by sheriff in his own backyard over California crime as victims cry foul
Gov. Gavin Newsom is taking fire from an unlikely critic in his own political backyard.
With roughly a month left for California lawmakers to send legislation to the governor's desk, Sacramento County Sheriff Jim Cooper is accusing Sacramento of putting criminals ahead of victims, failing to fully implement voter-approved crime reforms and embracing policies that weaken accountability.
Cooper unloaded on California's crime policies during a recent interview with KCRA 3's California Politics 360, where he argued California leaders have not done enough to address crime despite voters demanding tougher consequences for repeat offenders.
NEW YORK BILLS COULD ABOLISH LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE FOR SERIAL KILLERS AND COP KILLERS, CRITICS WARN
When asked how he would grade Newsom and the Legislature's response to crime, Cooper didn't hesitate.
"Not enough. Not enough," Cooper said. "It's just frustrating that people are hesitant to do anything."

Although California recently announced its lowest homicide rate in nearly six decades, Cooper argued the numbers don't tell the whole story, saying victims continue to pay the price for policies that emphasize diversion and early release over accountability.
A major focus of Cooper's criticism was Proposition 36, the voter-approved initiative that passed in 2024 with nearly 70% support statewide and in all 58 counties.
The measure increased penalties for repeat retail theft and certain drug crimes while allowing eligible offenders to have felony charges dismissed after completing court-ordered treatment.
"Not one statewide official supported it. And that's troubling," Cooper said during the interview.
REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK: CHICAGO COP KILLED AFTER SUSPECT RELEASED UNDER SAFE-T ACT
While Cooper said the law is already showing results, pointing to retailers reporting declines in theft, he argued Sacramento has failed to provide the funding needed to make the initiative successful.
"The issue is no funding, no funding came with it," he said. "It is working. But without funding, it doesn't go anywhere."
State leaders have said this year's budget includes $375 million to help implement Proposition 36, though KCRA reported budget documents show $50 million is specifically directed toward Proposition 36-related court and pretrial services.
Cooper also blasted California's expanding mental health diversion system, warning proposals to make more theft offenses eligible for diversion would undermine the very initiative voters overwhelmingly approved.
"It would water it down," Cooper said, adding that some lawmakers "don't want anybody held accountable."
Gov. Newsom's office pushed back on Cooper's criticism, arguing California's crime trends tell a different story.
"We will stick to real results, not headlines," a spokesperson for the governor's office told Fox News Digital. "Why don't you ask Jim Cooper why we've made so much progress lowering crime rates in California."
The spokesperson also pointed to Assembly Bill 46, legislation Newsom recently signed that tightens oversight of California's mental health diversion program. According to the governor's office, the measure was supported by Cooper, despite his broader criticism of the state's diversion policies.
Cooper acknowledged during his interview with KCRA 3 that lawmakers and the governor recently approved changes adding new guardrails to mental health diversion. However, he argued the reforms still fall short.
"Some crimes are so shocking ... you shouldn't be eligible for mental health diversion," he said, pointing to offenses including felony child abuse and crimes involving sexually violent predators.
The sheriff also renewed his criticism of California's domestic violence laws, arguing the state still refuses to classify many felony domestic violence offenses as violent felonies despite the devastating injuries suffered by victims.
"Domestic violence goes on every day. Doesn't matter if you're rich or poor. Happens in every neighborhood. We have to treat it seriously," he said.
When asked why lawmakers continue opposing legislation to classify domestic violence as a violent felony, Cooper replied bluntly.
"They have no argument. They just vote against it," he said.
The criticism is consistent with Cooper's recent public campaign against California's criminal justice policies.
In recent months, the sheriff has argued that "domestic violence is one of the most personal and devastating forms of violence, but California law can still classify felony domestic violence as 'non-violent.' That needs to change."
He has also repeatedly criticized lawmakers over Proposition 36, accusing them of ignoring nearly 70% of California voters by advancing diversion programs for retail theft offenders instead of fully funding and implementing the initiative.
"Californians were fed up with retail theft and passed Prop. 36 in all 58 counties," Cooper wrote in a recent statement, arguing lawmakers instead responded by proposing new diversion programs that allow some offenders to avoid convictions.
Cooper has also emerged as one of the state's most vocal critics of California's youth offender and elderly parole policies, arguing they have systematically reduced accountability for violent offenders.
After five young suspects were charged in the fatal shooting of an 18-year-old Sacramento State student who was struck while riding in the back of an Uber, Cooper warned that California law often places greater emphasis on the offender's age than the severity of the crime.
He argued that changes stemming from Proposition 57, youth offender parole laws and elderly parole policies have created a system where serious offenders can receive earlier release based on age rather than the harm inflicted on victims.
"The law places limits on how long offenders can be held but takes zero ownership of the damage done to victims and their families," Cooper wrote. "This is not a system failing. It is a system operating exactly as designed."
Cooper has also criticized California's compassionate release program after a convicted attempted cop killer, who had been released early after shooting at Stockton police officers, was later arrested on new weapons charges.
Following that arrest, Cooper accused lawmakers of ignoring warnings from prosecutors and law enforcement about expanding release standards.
"The experts in the room saw the risks and they were ignored," he wrote. "This is what happens when ideology outweighs public safety."
Cooper closed his latest interview with a message he says Sacramento has lost sight of.
"We've got to get back to the victims."
