They hadn’t announced this ominous news. In fact, they hadn’t even dropped any public hints.
That little detail emerged from paperwork that they filled out.
Only now, more than a month later, is Khloe publicly confessing that she and Tristan are sharing the same roof.
Before we get into this, let’s all agree upon one thing:
This could be so much worse than it seems to be so far.
For example, Khloe and Tristan could have secretly gotten married. Thankfully, there’s no evidence of such a horror taking place. Yet.
On Wednesday, Hulu aired the Season 3 finale of The Kardashians. That is when Khloe fessed up.
We know that she shares 5-year-old True and 11-month-old Tatum with Tristan.
Now we know that both Tristan and his teenage brother, Amari, are now also living with her.
How did this happen?
Well, the roof of Tristan’s $12.5 million Hidden Hills mansion collapsed.
This was during renovation. Apparently, the culprit was a massive downpour of rain. Los Angeles is a cultural icon, but it’s also a desert hellscape. People build the homes with earthquakes and fires in mind, not rain.
At the time, Tristan called Khloe to share his heartbreak. This was before Khloe even knew what had happened.
“I didn’t really understand what he was saying,” Khloe admitted to the camera.
“He was just like screaming on the phone, trying to tell me that she’s gone,” Khloe recalled.
“But,” she explained, “I had no idea who he was talking about.”
Many of us have calmly begun to break horrible news to a loved one, only to find that our voice breaks. That must have been an extremely painful phone call for both of them. But perhaps it offered Tristan some comfort.
Khloe had been very close to Andrea. She, sister Kim, and mother Kris Jenner flew to Toronto with Tristan.
They helped with funeral arrangements and supported Tristan emotionally during this miserable time.
Additionally, Tristan became his brother’s legal guardian. Amari returned to California with him.
“Amari is 16, and he is severely disabled,” Khloe explained to the confessional camera.
“It’s just really sad,” she expressed, “because we don’t know what he knows or doesn’t know, cognitively.”
Then, Khloe explained, the unusually intense rain made Tristan’s home uninhabitable.
“We had crazy weather for California, like extreme rains, and Tristan’s roof caved in on his home and caused flooding,” Khloe described.
“Tristan and Amari are staying at my house right now,” she said. According to her, it’s just “until his home gets fixed.”
Khloe then laid this scenario at the feet of a higher power, quipping: “God doesn’t want him to be alone right now and why should he be?”
We have an update on the never-ending, but always very unfortunate, custody battle between Amber Portwood and Andrew Glennon.
Back in late June, Glennon filed an emergency order to keep Portwood away from the former couple’s young son, James.
We later learned that the basis for Glennon’s complaint was concern over the five-year old’s safety and well-being after a visit this spring in California with his mother.
In mid-May, you see, Portwood had flown from her home in Indiana to spend a few days with James.
On May 16, Glennon was on a video call with his son when he bloodied his lip after jumping on a hotel room bed.
“The minor child became hysterical, [Amber] began yelling, and [Amber] immediately terminated the video call with the [Andrew] and refused to respond for an extended amount of time to his numerous inquiries, including phone calls and text messages, as to what happened and what was going on.”
Afraid for his child’s health, Andrew says he went to pick James up around 1:30 a.m., prompting a meltdown by Portwood.
In response to Glennon’s official documentation of this incident, along with his request to severely limit Portwood’s time with James, Amber fired back that James suffered the sort of injury that befalls children at all times.
It was simply an accident.
She also denied Glennon’s allegation that she had been drinking heavily around the toddler — and blamed Andrew for a rash that former on James’ rear end because he hadn’t told his ex-girlfriend that their son needed help wiping in the bathroom.
It’s all extremely sad because a five-year old is at the center of this battle.
On Thursday, meanwhile, The Ashley reports that Amber attended the latest custody hearing in person inside of an Indiana courtroom… while James a lawyer chimed in via video.
The main crux of this particular hearing centered on a cross-examination of Portwood, while there was also a presentation of evidence.
Both sides were then ordered to submit their proposed orders to the court — that is, to provide arguments for why they either should spend time with James or why the other side should not.
These written briefs must be sent to the court by September 5.
t
After the briefs are submitted, the judge has 90 days to make a ruling.
And… that’s basically it for now.
Next Monday, Portwood and Glennon will need to be present in court yet again — this time both on video chat — to address Amber’s request to have their court record sealed.
This is simply a privacy issue, however; it has no bearing on any custody arguments between the pair.
Todd Chrisley would like you to break out a very tiny violin.
The disgraced reality star, who was sentenced to 12 years behind federal bars in November due to his role in multiple financial fraud schemes, is reportedly unhappy in prison.
According to Todd’s lawyer, who spoke to TMZ on Thursday, Chrisley is being mistreated as an inmate at FPC Pensacola in Florida.
The alleged reason for this mistreatment?
Chrisley’s celebrity status.
The attorney, Jay Surgent, says someone took a photo of Todd while he was sleeping.
He also claims that Chrisley’s mail is getting destroyed before Todd has a chance to see it.
Surgent went on to tell TMZ that Chrisley’s living conditions are plagued by bad plumbing… possible mold… and no air conditioning.
He also claims his wife Julie’s struggling with similarly awful conditions over at FMC Lexington, Kentucky where she’s serving her seven-plus-year sentence.
Prosecutors alleged at the time that the wealthy reality stars used falsified documents to obtain $30 million in bank loans… and then defaulted on more than $20 million in debt when Todd Chrisley declared bankruptcy in 2012.
They also concealed millions of dollars from the IRS that they had earned from the aforementioned program.
Todd’s lawyer says he’s gonna file paperwork to get his client moved to a different facility, but it’s unlikely this request will be granted.
On the latest episode of her Unlocked podcast, meanwhile, Savannah Chrisley and her brother, Chase, alleged that their parents are currently dealing with extreme heat, black mold and even — in Julie’s case — snakes next to her bed.
Yes, SNAKES.
“Mom has rattlesnakes just casually slithering on the floor in front of her! ” Savannah said on air.
Added Chase:
“It’s a nightmare, it’s awful. Now they both have no air conditioning. [Todd and Julie] are both in states where it gets to be 100+ degrees and there’s no air conditioning.”
In January, prior to entering the prison system, Todd seemed confident that God will set him free.
Along these lines, his kids emphasized on the aforementioned podcast that their parents are appealing their conviction and recently sought new legal representation.
“They’re putting one foot in front of the other,” Savannah said.
“So they’re not giving up, there is no admission of guilt … Since the beginning, they’ve always, always said [that they’re innocent].
On this week’s The Real Housewives of Orange County, Shannon Beador feared a secret that could destroy her relationship.
As we all know, that relationship with John Janssen did very much end.
Ostensibly, she and John are still friends. Or they’re friends again, anyway. But can that really last?
Now, an establishment reportedly had to remove Shannon from the premises after she got into some sort of screaming match with John’s daughter.
Earlier this season on RHOC, we saw Shannon so excited to see one of John’s kids that she rudely interrupted a castmate during a tense boat ride.
Things have changed dramatically.
Shannon was recently hanging out with John and his family — as friends.
Page Six reports that, earlier this month, Shannon Beador was at Tiki Bar in Costa Mesa, California.
No one seems to know what prompted Shannon’s alleged “wild” outburst towards John’s daughter.
But from what an eyewitness told @igfamousbydana, Shannon was reportedly “wasted.”
According to the witness, Shannon “had to be held back and removed by security” during the ordeal.
Numerous eyewitnesses saw men in Tiki Bar security attire escorting Shannon out.
She looked both upset and disheveled.
Apparently, John and his family “remained calm” during the ordeal.
Meanwhile, Page Six spoke to people close to Shannon, who confirmed that an “argument” broke out.
This conflict involved “multiple people,” the source said, and “everyone was screaming at each other.”
Now, this insider went on to add that everyone had to leave … but not because of the conflict.
“Yes, there was an argument,” John Janssen then confirmed.
“But it was at the end of the night,” Shannon’s ex explained. “The lights were up, and everyone was being asked to leave.”
Allegedly, the Tiki Bar security folks were just helping Shannon find her Uber because she did not have her glasses.
We have to point out that the source close to Shannon saying the same thing as John is not the same thing as confirmation.
Page Six‘s tone of reporting seems to indicate that people may be lying to make this incident sound less embarrassing than it really was.
This was the same month as the show aired Shannon’s not-mic moment (like a hot mic moment, but where they remember that they’re recording so they don’t say anything) is likely a coincidence.
Still, we don’t know what secret Tamra knew. What secret Heather had shared. Or if it caused Shannon’s breakup.
She and John didn’t speak for six months. Now they’re friends again. Or they were, before the Tiki Bar fight. Now? Who knows?
If you know anything about Jim Bob Duggar’s belief system, you know that the man is very big on marriage and procreation.
In Jim Bob’s view, women were put on earth solely for the purposes of birthing children and becoming dutiful wives.
Needless to say, the man believes that divorce is a mortal sin, and that any married people who don’t stay married should be shunned by polite society.
So it would take a lot for one of Jim Bob’s kids to pull the plug on their marriage — but that doesn’t mean it will never happen.
During a recent discussion on the always-entertaining r/DuggarsSnark subreddit, commenters speculated about which couples might openly defy Jim Bob by going their separate ways.
And the consensus was that Duggar World is home to two marriages that appear to be doomed.
“I think when Jim Bob dies, there will be a few divorces,” one user wrote, according to UK tabloid The Sun.
“I feel like there’s a chance that when Josh gets out, after waiting for him for all these years Anna will get tossed aside,” another added.
“[Josh] and Anna would be my only guess tbh. [Josh] would be the one to initiate the divorce when he gets out of prison and doesn’t feel like pretending to be a good IBLP man anymore,” a third chimed in.
Yes, Josh and Anna are certainly the most troubled couple in the family.
Of course, Josh won’t get out of prison for nearly a decade, so we’ll probably have to wait quite a few years to see if those predictions come true.
But some Duggar-watchers think a different couple will call it quits much sooner.
“I think it’s going to be Jessa and Ben as well, I definitely do not see any love (not even like) between them,” one Reddit user predicted.
“I can see Jessa dumping Ben and going for a stronger man,” another wrote.
“I hope Jessa leaves Ben. She was my favorite when I used to watch the show and I always figured she would be there 1st to break all the rules when she turned 18,” a third commented, adding:
“I think she’ll find herself when her kids are older.”
Yes, a vocal contingent of Duggar fans have spent rooting for Jessa to free herself from the constraints of the hyper-patriarchal world in which she was raised.
They believe that as a husband who was essentially hand-picked by Jessa’s father, Ben is the embodiment of that oppression.
He might not be as bad as these people have made him out to be, but Jessa would definitely need to leave her marriage in order to liberate herself from her father’s belief system.
Whatever the case, Jim Bob and Michelle have 19 children, and most of them will likely follow in their parents’ footsteps by marrying very young.
Statistically, that means that the family will see at least one divorce in the years to come.
And you can be sure Jim Bob will flip his lid if and when it happens!
She’s eccentric and she’s a mess. But he doesn’t know how to be in a relationship — and isn’t interested in learning.
He spent years as her religious mentor and now takes it for granted that he’ll be her husband. Meisha isn’t sure just yet.
The show filmed many months ago. Are Meisha and Nicola still together?
There are endless reasons for which Meisha Johnson and Nicola Kanaan are a bad match.
It seems that all that they have in common is their extremely devout, orthodox Roman Catholic beliefs. Even then … they’re not entirely on the same wavelength.
But if the 90 Day Fiance franchise has taught us one thing, it’s that incompatibility doesn’t always deter people from making mistakes.
What are the clues?
Barring a smoking gun — like a marriage certificate, or evidence of them filming in the US on a K-1 visa — we have to look for subtler signs.
For example, Meisha and Nicola continue to follow each other on social media. Specifically, on Instagram.
That most strongly suggests that they’re still together. It could also mean that they broke up, and are still friends. Finally, it could mean that they broke up bitterly … but are trying to avoid spoiling their split.
It’s not just that they’re IG mutuals
Nicola has “liked” several of Meisha’s recent Instagram posts.
We cited a similar phenomenon when discussing their castmates Christian and Cleo. Active “likes” are a stronger clue than a passive following.
Which brings us to an interesting detail: we haven’t seen Meisha reacting to any of Nicola’s posts. That could be disinterest, or professionalism.
What about their baby? (Not literally)
We refer, of course, to the website that Meisha and Nicola started together — Psalm91.com.
It is a reference to their shared Catholic faith, not to one of the Kimye kids that Kim clearly allowed Kanye to name.
Meisha often advertises the site, promoting it on social media. Nicola does not seem to actively do the same.
Is that it?
Neither Meisha nor Nicola are commenting on each other’s posts. And they also aren’t publicly addressing their relationship.
That just means that they are abiding by their NDAs better than most.
In comparison, we can recall some other 90 Day couples over the years who could not contain their mess. Public fighting, abrupt blocking and badmouthing are much more obvious than radio silence.
Did Meisha let something slip?
On July 13, Meisha did offer a brief little montage from her trip to Israel.
Almost all of the content was normal — gorgeous landscapes, photos of the sights and landmarks, and of course the cats.
There was a brief clip of Meisha and Nicola walking. That’s not a spoiler, though. That just means that, you know, he was there. We know.
So, what’s the verdict?
On screen, we have seen ample reasons for them to break up.
He doesn’t seem interested in learning or changing. Despite no real relationship experience, he feels that he’s doing just fine.
Meanwhile, Meisha wants to know that he’ll be a good partner. And she wants to know that he’s not going to get into conflict with her teenage daughters for being normal young adults.
Simply put, we don’t know if they’re still together. If they were married, we feel like they’d be broadcasting that news to the world.
The odds are pretty good that they’re still trying to make it work, but are not yet married. They have both expressed a belief that their God wants them to be together. It’s hard for even obvious incompatibility to overcome that.
We would love — love — for this season and the Tell All to offer a pleasant surprise. Maybe it’s over. May all toxic, harmful relationships come to a swift and decisive end.
After Jenelle Evans was fired from Teen Mom 2back in 2019, she spent several years struggling financially and launching one ill-fated business venture after another.
But earlier this year, she discovered the solution to all of her money problems.
Jenelle joined OnlyFans, and within a few weeks, she and her family were back on solid financial ground for the first time since MTV kicked her to the curb.
And now, it seems that other Teen Mom stars are following in Evans’ spicy footsteps.
This week, Tyler Baltierra revealed that he would be launching his own account on the popular adult site.
The announcement of Tyler’s foray into the world of adult content came from his wife, Catelynn Lowell, who seemed quite excited about the idea!
“@tyler-jrbaltierra has an Onlyfans now!” she wrote on Instagram, along with a link to her husband’s page.
“Oh my god. You have really done and did this sh-t. I’m so dead right now!” Tyler commented, according to UK tabloid The Sun.
“For anyone wondering, though, I will NOT be in control of my account on there,” he continued.
“It will completely be in my wife’s control. She’s the boss. I’m just there to do as I’m told.”
It wasn’t long before Jenelle offered her two cents on the situation.
Evans is trying to break into the world of day trading, and she hosted an Instagram Q&A this week that quickly veered into much spicier territory,
“Any advice on day trading or mentors you know of,” Evans asked her followers.
One commenter quickly changed the topic and asked for Jenelle’s thoughts on Tyler joining OnlyFans.
Evans seized the opportunity to throw some shade at her former Teen Mom bosses.
“Good for him,” she replied.
“Seems like MTV is lowballing lots of people if everyone is looking for other sources of income.”
In his announcement post, Tyler threw clarified that he’s not “doing porn,” and Cate will just be posting some risqué content that he’s sent to her.
“To be completely fair, I’m NOT doing porn at all! Cate is just sharing the stuff that I personally send her!” he wrote.
“There’s no sex involved or even videos on the page she’s running.”
From there Tyler threw some shade at Farrah Abraham, who famously launched an adult film career while still starring on Teen Mom.
“I didn’t go to a porn production company, hire adult film stars & crew, have sex on camera, pretend that it was some ‘leaked’ personal footage, or make genital molds to sell!” Tyler wrote.
“Cate is being completely transparent and honest about it all! It’s just a wife sharing photos of her husband. That’s literally it!” he continued, adding:
“But I get why some people are comparing it to my former cast members’ endeavors, to be honest, and that’s totally valid!
“I just wanted to clarify what kind of content is actually being shared on there in case anyone thought otherwise.”
Despite whispers of it, there’s no evidence of any actual cheating.
But Ariana knew the two of them as a couple before they split, and before Ariana and Ethan got together.
In fact, she was hanging out with them and their new baby just months before the new romance went public.
Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s relationship did not go public at first.
It was going on before news broke of Ariana’s split with her husband, Dalton Gomez.
Ariana and Ethan met on the set of Wicked and struck up a friendship.
At first, they were just two married castmates who have a history on Broadway and get along well.
Reports have consistently detailed how Ariana would spend time with Ethan and his wife, Lilly Jay.
She even spent time with their baby, who is still not quite one year old. But, of course, Ariana and Slater both ended up married on paper yet single in practice.
According to what an inside source told The Daily Mail, Ariana Grande found the baby to be absolutely charming.
In fact, Ariana felt that the little boy was so enchanting that she expressed that she “wanted a baby” of her own “one day.”
That is not an uncommon reaction to babies. (Well, if you’ve never been an overly put-upon eldest sibling who spends a decade of their life providing free childcare against your will) But what followed makes that … weird.
The thing is that Ariana’s hangouts with the erstwhile couple and their baby happened just months ago.
At best, that puts the timeline as shortly before she and Ethan got together.
With that in mind, one can sort of understand why a very unhappy Lilly Jay considers her family “collateral damage” in Ariana’s split from Dalton.
Simply put, there is no evidence that anyone cheated. Ariana and Ethan were both split to some degree from their respective spouses when things started up between them.
However, many people feel that Ariana was a bad friend to Lilly for snatching up her husband.
Additionally, some critics feel that meeting their baby should have give Ariana pause. Sometimes, new parents split and reconcile. Unless one of them moves on.
There are a lot of hurt feelings in this story. Most of them belong to Lilly. That is very reasonable.
The insinuations that Ariana is a “homewrecker” are misogynistic. Frankly, that’s not how marriages work. This characterization is also unsupported by any evidence.
Now, the allegation that Ariana was not a good friend to Lilly? It certainly sounds that way.
Much as catastrophic events such as the Kennedy assassination forever changed the face of American society, so too might the fallout from Tom Sandoval’s affair with Raquel Leviss continue to trouble this great nation for many years to come.
If you’re a longtime fan, then you know that Vanderpump Rules appeared to be on its way out before the Scandoval breathed new life into the long-running series.
The scandal boosted Vanderpump‘s ratings and assured the show an eleventh season.
But we might be on the verge of getting too much of a good thing …
The friends were accused of settling a personal grudge by calling the cops on their only Black co-star, Faith Stowers.
Jax and wife Brittany Cartwright were fired after fans pointed out that the couple engaged in equally problematic behavior.
To their credit, Stassi and Kristen have apologized profusely and committed themselves to learning from their mistakes.
“I thought that I understood racism, but now I’m really learning about unconscious bias,” Doute said on a recent episode of the “Hollywood Raw” podcast.
“Learning about anti-racism. Learning about how we can do things locally to really truly make changes and putting work into your community locally to make those changes I think [are] so important.”
As for Jax and Brittany — well, it’s not really clear if they’ve learned anything, but like it or not, the Cauchis are Bravo-lebrities once again.
We have to grudgingly admit that Jax is one of the most chaotically entertaining reality stars in the history of the genre.
He says he’s calmed down considerably since welcoming a child, however.
We can only hope that the old Jax is still in there somewhere.
Either way, it looks like he’s managed to grab his old frenemy Tom Sandoval’s coattails and ride them right back into the spotlight!
It was the kind of high-profile prestige fare that usually cleans up come awards season, which is why many industry observers were shocked when Harry & Meghan didn’t receive a single Emmy nomination.
Perhaps if everything else were going well for the couple career-wise, they would just move on from such a minor setback.
And now, it seems the Sussexes want to know why they were snubbed.
According to a new report from Heat magazine, Harry and Meghan were furious about the news, and they believe that one of their enemies is responsible for this latest humiliation.
“The fact that they didn’t get an Emmy nod is a huge kick in the teeth,” a source tells the outlet.
“They’re convinced there’s been an orchestrated hate campaign against them on both sides of the Atlantic, and that certain people are trying to get in on the act,” the insider adds.
Now, the source claims, the Sussexes are looking into the matter with the goal of determining who “put the boot in and what on earth they’ve got to do to catch a break.”
Apparently, they hired a private eye from the 1940s, because who else talks like that?
It’s worth noting that Harry and Meghan’s series wasn’t dismissed by every award-granting body.
The doc has been nominated for a Hollywood Critics Award in the Best Streaming Nonfiction category.
But the Hollywood Critics Awards are not the Emmys, and they don’t offer an opportunity for Harry and Meghan to send a message about their success by strutting the red carpet in the company of fellow A-listers.
The Sussexes likely assumed that an Emmy nod was a foregone conclusion, and the snub might be an unwelcome sign that they’re not as beloved in Hollywood as they previously thought.
And the indifference (or animosity) toward the couple might extend beyond the film industry.
But the current residents are reportedly not happy with the idea of their posh seaside town becoming a haven for paparazzi and tourists.
The pushback is unlikely to stop Harry and Meghan from making the move, but they may find themselves receiving the cold shoulder from their new neighbors.
Who knew that the LA area could feel as frigid as London under the right circumstances?
Khloe shared that she and Andrea had spoken every day. (That’s very sweet … and a reminder that it’s easy to keep in touch with loved ones regularly when you’re rich — you can afford the time)
Tristan was, of course, absolutely heartbroken by the loss of his mother.
And Tristan has other siblings. One of whom is Amari, who is 16 years old, disabled, and had relied upon Andrea as his caregiver for all of his life.
Tristan became Amari’s legal guardian. He returned with the basketball player to Los Angeles.
Very close to Khloe, Tristan owns his own Calabasas mansion.
However, it is undergoing renovations. A massive rain storm (Southern California plans for fires and earthquakes, not rain) collapsed his roof.
So Tristan is living with Khloe, at her house. And so is his teenage brother, Amari.
Speaking to her mother, Kris Jenner, and to her sister, Kim Kardashian, Khloe explained that she believes that this is all some sort of plan that God made. So that Tristan wouldn’t have to be alone in his grief.
Is this a bad time to say “speak of the devil?” Because Tristan strolled into the room. With a literal stroller — an indoor one, holding baby Tatum.
Khloe kept a lot of things secret about her precious son.
Likely, a major factor was Khloe’s growing discomfort with the opinions that fans have about her life and choices.
But also? Between the way that newborns often look kind of goofy and the way that debuting him on reality TV works for the family, it just made sense.
Anyway, Tristan wheeled their baby into the room.
Kim and Kris immediately directed their attention at the little cutie.
And he’s simultaneously a tiny baby and also an enormous one — just as babies should be.
Kim became almost dangerously relatable during this scene. It is not a quality that we associate with her under most circumstances.
(Normally, that’s Kendall, who has zero kids and a lot of anxiety. Or it’s Kourtney, who doesn’t really want to fill every hour of every day in the way that Kim does)
See, Kim zeroed in on her precious little nephew excitedly. Mood!!
“Hi chunk!” Kim said excitedly as she approached the wee babe.
Tristan unfastened him from his stroller and removed him from the seat.
And this next part really needs a visual.
Tristan lifts Tatum up into the air, as countless parents do.
But while Kim is extremely short (I’m no basketball player but I have more than a foot on her), Tristan towers above her.
Which means that Tatum is higher above the ground than most babies will ever be, unless something goes very wrong.
Anyway, it was very fun to see Kim be a doting aunt.
Tristan and Khloe did warn her that Tatum is very good at “spitting.”
Kim received a baby blanket. It’s a polite way of referring to a giant napkin that one uses because babies are wildly messy.
Here’s the thing — this is Tatum’s first face reveal.
(His name reveal was pretty recent, also. Khloe kept that under wraps … pretty much until people lost interest)
It’s a good name. And his face is so adorable that you can see why Kim is so, so excited.
“There’s our guy,” Kris exclaimed at her adorable grandson.
“He’s in the sticking out tongue phase,” Khloe commented.
Babies grow in spurts, and they develop fine motor skills and muscle tone as they do. Muscle tone is what keeps a human tongue inside of their mouths.
“That looks like the exact same baby as Robert when he was born,” Kris remarked.
She is referring to her son, Rob. Rather than to her late ex-husband, Robert. We think.
Kris had commented about this similarity earlier … but that was before viewers could see the little one’s face.
Kris also spoke about how “everything happens for a reason” when discussing Tristan’s roof collapse.
(Gotta say … “everything happens for a reason” sounds well and good when you live an extraordinary life. It can also make victims of horrible things feel like you’re saying that this was always their fate)
Kris’ words moved Tristan to tears as she affirmed that he is and will always be family. Despite what he’s done to Khloe.
Khloe did emphasize that she is not back together with Tristan.
In fact, when he sat next to her on the couch, she made it clear that he was too close. He was causing the couch to sink.
Yes, that’s what couches do. Especially huge, comfy ones like this family’s oversized sofas.
This was a lovely face reveal of cute little Tatum.
In this footage — which obviously filmed months ago — he’s still just a baby.
But he’s not a newborn. He’s looking around, he’s alert, and he clearly has his own little pre-verbal personality.
Though sometimes celebrity (and non-celebrity) babies can take a shocking amount of time to start talking, we’re sure that Tatum will say his first words before long.
And we’re so excited to see more of this precious baby on Season 4. Yes, that’s really happening.
Tristan may not have been a good partner to Khloe — no matter how many chances she gave him. But he sure did help her make a couple of absolute cuties.
It’s been three and a half years since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made their unexpected wish come true, announcing to the world that they were leaving the Royal Family.
But you know what they often say about wishes, right?
And how perhaps one ought to be careful about what one wishes for? In case it comes true and is then a wild disappointment?
The Duchess and the Duke of Sussex may be the perfect example of this saying at the moment.
Moreover, Markle’s podcast was canceled by Spotify after just one year, with an executive at that company trashing both her and her husband as untalented hacks last month.
Harry, for his part, came out with a memoir earlier this year… which some critics believed to have been a betrayal or his relatives.
Or an example of a very rich white person complaining about problems that pretty much only affect very rich white people.
As the famous couple’s popularity continues to sink to new lows — and as a number of failed ventures have left them concerned about money — Harry and Meghan have grown desperate to return to the former’s roots.
Yes, they’ve supposedly gone crawling back to Harry’s loved ones.
“Harry and Meghan have secretly reached out to Harry’s brother, Prince William, to discuss the possibility of returning to the royal family,” an In Touch Weekly source said this week, adding:
“This is something they both want very much.”
How totally crazy and insane would it be if that happened?!?
“It could put a new spin on their brand,” continues the insider. “It could help her and Harry to carry on their work informing others on how to make this a better world.”
Another upside, the source claims, is that the former Suits star thinks it would be “lovely” for her son and daughter to have English accents.
This doesn’t seem even remotely like something Meghan Markle would think, but hey. We’re just passing along what the aforementioned tabloid has written.
A few weeks ago, In Touch broke this same alleged news, stating at the time that Harry and Meghan were quietly planning a Royal Family return.
“Harry is starting to wonder if they made the right decision leaving England,” claimed the magazine back then.
“He’s even suggested to Meghan that they return to London and the royal family.”
In its latest report, the outlet emphasizes just how poorly the husband and wife are doing financially these days.
“The Spotify cancellation was bad enough,” says the source. “Now that their Netflix deal is in jeopardy, Harry and Meghan are freaking out about their finances.”
In January 2020, of course, Harry and Meghan stopped the universe in its tracks when they released a statement that read:
After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution.
We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen.
It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment.
We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages.
On Friday, the long-time Sister Wives star alerted Instagram followers to her whereabouts, sharing a number of photos from her vacation to London with four of her kids — and the man of her dreams.
“What wonderful new experiences with some of my favorite people,” wrote Brown as a caption to a montage of photos, one of which we’ve posted above and two of which we’ve posted below.
As you can see, the family was all smiles as they took part in a series of group vacation outings… including a ride around the British capital in a double-decker bus… a visit to a local pub… a trip on the Underground… and a spot of live theater.
Joining recently-engaged Christine in the United Kingdom were her daughters with ex-husband Kory Brown: Aspyn Thompson, 28, Mykelti Brown Padron, 27, Ysabel, 20, and youngest Truely, 13.
David Woolley was also front and center in many of these snapshots.
He and Christine went public with their romance in February, got engaged two months later and just shared some gorgeous official portraits a few days ago.
The only pair of Christine’s children missing from this international adventure?
Paeden, 24, who has expressed some controversial opinions over the years and who isn’t especially close to his siblings; and Gwendlyn, 21, who recently married her partner Beatriz Queiroz in Arizona on July 15.
Also missing were Woolley’s eight children from his previous marriage.
Clearly, though, despite these absences, a great time was enjoyed by all who were present.
“David treats me like a queen and tells me I’m beautiful every day,” Christine told People Magazine this spring after accepting Woolley’s proposal.
“I’ve never been in love like this before, and the world seems like a brighter place with him in it.”
If that sounds like a shot at Christine’s ex-spouse, Kody Brown, well… it probably was. And it was a deserved shot, too.
Over the past few weeks, for an extremely unfortunate reason, we’ve learned a lot about Tammy Slaton’s personal life.
This is due to the reality star having suffered a major personal tragedy when her husband, Caleb Willingham, died at the young age of 40.
What about Slaton’s professional life, however?
Yes, it’s intertwined with the personal side — considering Slaton appears alongside her siblings on a long-running reality show — but fans have still been clamoring for information on 1000-Lb Sisters.
Specifically, they want to know when the TLC program will return with new episodes.
“What people don’t know is, like, Season 4 isn’t over,” Tammy explained in a since-deleted TikTok on Friday, July 28, prior to revealing the winter premiere date:
“My wedding was a two-part thing so it made Season 4 have more episodes, so we have Part B coming out December 12.”
Wow. December 12. That’s a long time from now.
We know that filming got underway several weeks ago because a TikTok user said the following in June while taking a video in Pensacola, Florida:
“1000-Lb Sisters filming drew quite the crowd!
“Not gonna lie, at first I got really excited bc I thought it was Mama June, Pumpkin, and Honey Boo Boo. It wasn’t but, the girl from the show looks great!
In mid-July, an insider told The Sun that “major off-camera drama” has caused TLC to take a shooting hiatus, which may explain why the show won’t come back until December.
“The film crew was present, but they felt uncomfortable working with them because of the way they were behaving,” reported this outlet on July 14.
Yes, the argument reportedly turned physical, as the family “really got into it,” added The Sun.
We don’t know the reason behind this shocking fight.
Both Amy and Tammy, are going through A LOT these days, though.
The former is involved in an ugly split from her husband of four years, having called 911 on Michael Halterman in February and telling the cops that her spouse got violent in front of their kids.
The latter, as cited previously, is dealing with the death of the man she married in November.
“We were having problems, but I loved that man, and I still do,” Tammy said through tears in footage she posted to TikTok three weeks ago about Caleb.
“I miss him like crazy, but I wanted to thank everybody for… I’m sorry.”
Tammy could barely keep going at that point. She had to stop to collect herself.
“Thank you, everybody, for your comments. I appreciate it, I really do,” the 1000-Lb Sisters cast member went on.
Despite the recent estrangement from Caleb to which she admitted, Tammy made it clear after his passing that she was still very much in love with her spouse at the time of his death.
“I am devastated to share the news of my husband’s passing,” Slaton told People Magazine about a month ago, adding:
“He was my best friend and I loved him dearly.
“When I met Caleb he became my guardian angel and now he really is watching over me. Our families appreciate everyone’s sympathy and ask that you respect our privacy at this time.”
We’re just weeks away from the publication of Jill’s debut memoir, and if presale numbers are any indication, the book will soon be flying off the shelves.
Of course, Jill’s present excitement is likely offset by some serious anxiety.
After all, the book promises to expose her controversial family like never before, and you can be certain that her parents will not respond well to being called out!
Over the weekend, Jill revealed that she recently finished recording the audiobook version of her memoir.
“It’s been a full week! We did a thing … the audiobook is finally recorded,” she wrote on Instagram on Saturday.
“I’m so grateful to everyone who helped make this happen … from childcare in and out of the studio and all the other help, prayers and support! Thanks so much!”
For the most part, the comments on Jill’s post were supportive and congratulatory.
But predictably, a handful of trolls had to crash the party and attempt to shame her for having the courage to tell her story.
“Selling out your parents probably feels so fulfilling!” wrote one such troll, according toIn Touch.
“My parents weren’t perfect either. How do I get a book deal to throw them under the bus?”
Jill didn’t reply to the comment, but thankfully, several fans did so on her behalf.
Many noted that Jill isn’t “selling out” anyone, she’s simply telling her story as she sees fit.
Others pointed out that if Jill were to sell her parents out, it wouldn’t be all that different from what Jim Bob and Michelle did to her.
After all, Jill received no financial compensation for her appearances on the reality shows that helped make her parents wealthy.
“They had no problem selling her out, did they? Let it go,” one person wrote.
“Her parents kept any earnings that she would have made from the show in TLC … this would be a fraction of what she would have been paid,” another added.
Jill’s book won’t hit stores until September, so we don’t yet know how brutal she’ll be in her assessment of her parents.
Of course, she cut ties with Jim Bob and Michelle several years ago, so you bet that she won’t go easy on them.
To be clear, we’re sure money was not Jill’s main motive in going public with her version of events.
But there’s some satisfaction in knowing that she’s finally getting paid to share her story.
“As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect for our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”
Despite this request for privacy, however?
Giudice has gone public with a complaint against the Modern Family cast member.
During the latest episode of her Namaste B$tches podcast, the Real Housewives of New Jersey slammed Vergara as “the rudest woman I’ve ever met.”
And one has to figure… Giudice has met, like, dozens and dozens of women over the course of her life.
Speaking with co-host Melissa Pfeister, Giudice hearkened back to an incident from 2017, where Vergara allegedly appeared hesitant to snap a picture with the reality star backstage at a talk show.
“Sofia Vergara’s PR person and my PR person spoke together, and I guess the two of them said, ‘Let’s get a picture of Teresa and Sofia together,’” Giudice recalled, at one point mocking Vergara’s Colombian accent and adding:
“I saw her whole demeanor, and then I heard her say to her PR person, ‘Why are you making me take a picture with that lady?’”
Teresa was very offended by this remark.
She seemed to then imply that Vergara should be kinder simply because she’s an immigrant.
“I was like, ‘Excuse me? I did not want to take a picture with you! I never asked to take a picture with you,’” Giudice went on.
“I was like, ‘How rude. You’re so not a humble person. You forgot where you came from.’”
The Bravo personality even referenced Vergara’s native city of Barranquilla, Colombia for some reason.
“It’s not like she started out like being on the top. She forgot where she came from. She’s so not a down-to-earth person,” Giudice said.
“I’m so not a fan of her.”
By Teresa’s logic here, it’s more acceptable for one to have bad manners if one did start out on top; if one, we don’t know, was born into money and then lied to the government about how much money one had and then went to jail for this criminal offense.
That’s certainly an interesting perspective, huh?
Perhaps instead of judging others based on one interaction, Giudice should spend more time looking less incredibly fake.
The former USA Network star, who was convicted in July 2022 of multiple types of financial fraud, isn’t doing very well these days in prison.
As previously documented, Chrisley believes he is being mistreated as an inmate at FPC Pensacola in Florida, with both his attorney and his children recently alleging some harassment at the hands of fellow convicts — and possibly even by prison employees themselves.
Surgent went on to tell celebrity gossip website TMZ that Chrisley’s living conditions are plagued by bad plumbing… possible mold… and no air conditioning.
On the latest episode of her Unlocked podcast, meanwhile, Savannah Chrisley and her brother, Chase, claimed that their parents are currently dealing with extreme heat, black mold and even — in Julie’s case — snakes next to her bed.
Yes, Savannah said on air that Julie Chrisley had to deal with “rattlesnakes just casually slithering on the floor in front of her” over at FMC Lexington, Kentucky … where she’s serving a seven-plus-year sentence for similar financial crimes.
Now, less than a year into a sentencing of well over a decade, Chrisley is apparently asking for be released from jail and placed in home confinement.
Over the weekend, Surgent told People Magazine the Chrisley Knows Best star “was making an application under the CARES Act to be released” for this purpose, but “his application was rejected.”
“He submitted it, but the person that was administrating it and was in charge of processing it, decided that she didn’t want to do that. She decided not to do it,” Surgent explains.
He went on to emphasize how, in his view, this was an unusual and unfair way of handling such an official request.
“It’s very, very unfortunate, and that matter is now being investigated internally, and we feel as though there was no reason why it should have not been processed, even in light of his prison term,” the lawyer went on.
Todd evidently cited the extreme heat conditions inside of his Florida penitentiary as the basis for his request.
Surgent told People that he and Julie are “living in squalor in 100-degree temperatures” behind these federal, adding that “there’s no air conditioning, there’s no nothing” in their respective cells.
In addition to the home confinement application, both stars started the process to appeal their case in December before they reported to jail in January following their combined 19-year prison sentence for tax fraud.
Prosecutors alleged at the time that the wealthy reality stars used falsified documents to obtain $30 million in bank loans… and then defaulted on more than $20 million in debt when Todd Chrisley declared bankruptcy in 2012.
They also concealed millions of dollars from the IRS that they had earned from the aforementioned program.
“The legal system, which we’ve never been a part of until now, is a very complex system that we just are still learning and we don’t know, which is why we have all these attorneys that work for us.
“You just have to hope and pray to God that when one division of the judicial system fails, that the next level, which is the appellate court, sees the mistakes and tries to correct those mistakes.”
Indeed, Surgent brought up this appeal when speaking to People.
“We argued very vigorously that their constitutional rights have been violated, and that they basically were not given a fair hearing. It’s all in black and white actually,” he said.
“And their living conditions, both of them, he in Pensacola, she in Lexington, Kentucky, it’s an absolute ridiculous situation.”
But a lot of fans are there to watch the little ones grow up.
Unfortunately, as we saw very recently, sometimes these home videos cause fans to react with alarm.
The latest incident involves Audrey food full of dangerous raw ingredients. Better alternatives have existed for nearly 200 years.
“Um making ice cream!” Audrey Roloff’s short and sweet little Instagram Story video announces.
She and her children — Ember, Bode, and Radley — were making strawberry ice cream. Not preparing strawberry ice cream, by scooping it into bowls.
They were making it at home, and showing fans and followers a glimpse of the process.
Almost everyone knows how to prepare at least some foods. The idea of homemake ice cream, however, has become an impracticality.
Between most people simply not having the time or the tools and the convenience of getting professional ice cream, it’s a rarity. It’s not like baking a cake or making your own lemonade.
But this was surely a treat for her kids to get to do. There is a certain wonder to making foods for yourself as a child. (That sense of wonder usually goes away as you get tired of cleanup and doing the resulting dishes)
Here’s where things become a little bit dicey.
“Hold on, I’m gonna taste it,” Audrey tells her kids, before tasting the ice cream as they make it.
We’re sure that it tastes absolutely delicious. But that is not the issue. Audrey then feeds tastes of the strawberry concoction to her kids.
However, Audrey also shared her recipe with fans and followers.
The recipe for this homemade treat includes cream, eggs, and raw milk.
Ice cream recipes can very widely. But it’s the raw milk that drew people’s attention — and concern.
We don’t know where Audrey and Jeremy source their eggs. Most eggs, however, are pasteurized and thus reasonably safe. (The thing that makes a lot of cookie dough unsafe isn’t the eggs, but the flour)
But raw milk? It’s right there in the name — it’s raw. No pasteurization process.
It has live enzymes and live bacteria. Sometimes, those bacteria are deadly. Resulting illnesses can lead to hospitalization or even death.
Fans and critics alike discussed Audrey’s needless dietary risks.
“This is a recipe for food poisoning!” one person quipped. For the record, food poisoning is a phrase that comes up often when one is discussing raw milk.
“She is going to poison her kids!” another worried. That is not guaranteed — but it is always a risk. That’s why pasteurization was such a game-changer nearly 200 years ago.
“Did she add raw egg to ice cream?” another asked. “How does that taste good?”
(Egg yolks are an optional ingredient in ice cream but a standard part of making custard. There are benefits to including them. And eggs can, and should, undergo pasteurization)
“Drinking raw milk makes me nervous,” another admitted. That is very smart!
If you’ve ever sat in a hospital room holding the hand of a loved one who has just lost their life to a battle with a deadly bacterial infection, you’re not going to want to take extra risks.
Not with handling animals, not with where you swim, and not with food preparation.
