In the latest plot twist from Hollywood, Lukas Gage is throwing some playful shade at his ex-husband, Chris Appleton, over their upcoming memoirs. It all began when Gage, spotted outside DOGPOUND Gym in West Hollywood, responded to the news of Appleton’s self-help book with a mix of surprise and sarcasm. He cheekily remarked how “honored” he feels to influence the timing of his ex’s release. Who knew unveiling your personal struggles could spark such rivalry?

Gage’s memoir, “I Wrote This For Attention,” is set to debut in October, while Appleton’s “Your Roots Don’t Define You” follows shortly after in January. Talk about a literary smackdown! Sources say people close to Gage are not thrilled about the timing, and it’s clear there’s more than just friendly competition at play. Will they spill the tea in their pages, or will it be all sunshine and rainbows?

This isn’t the first time Gage has hinted at the underlying tension, either. Just last year, he made a comment that could be interpreted as a dig at Appleton. It seems these two know how to keep the gossip mill churning! So, what do you think—is launching memoirs around the same time a savvy strategy or a recipe for disaster?
