Beth Chapman Shares First Post-Chemotherapy Selfie, Declares: Cancer Sucks!

Beth Chapman has shared an update on her health with fans. And we really wish it were a more positive one. On Tuesday, the Dog the Bounty Hunter star and wife to husband Duane “Dog” Chapman shared a smiling selfie on Instagram, including with this snapshot multiple hashtag messages, including “stay humble” and “pray.” Specifically, Beth wrote the following: #dogwgna history in the making #dogsmostwanted #cancersucks #stayhumblepray #itsonlyhair. This would seem to imply she’s wearing a wig in the image below, as chemotherapy almost always causes one to lose one’s hair. Beth was first diagnosed with stage II throat cancer in September of 2017. Two months later, she and her famous husband apprised fans of her status, saying the tumor had been totally removed. Tragically, however, the cancer returned the following year, as Beth rushed to the hospital in Los Angeles on November 26 for an emergency surgery to clear a throat blockage that was obstructing her airways. Talking last year about Beth’s initial diagnosis, Dog told Us Weekly how he reacted to the awful news. “I’ve been with her since she was 19, she’s almost 100,” Chapman said/joked, adding: “Every picture I see of us together, I remember where it was. It just makes all those moments that you shared love a lot more real when that could be what you’re left with: just the moments. “It was hard as sh-t.” Beth, meanwhile, spoke to Radar Online after her surgery and blew us away with her attitude. “I’ve stared down the devil more than once in my life but I’ve never faced a real life or death decision,” she told the outlet. “My life has never been easy, and I surely don’t expect it to start now. Still, I’ve never been a victim and I won’t let cancer beat me.” The Chapmans got married in 2006 after 16 years as a couple. Their family starred on the A&E reality series for eight seasons until 2012. Back in November of 2017, A&E also aired a two-hour special titled Dog and Beth: Fight of Their Lives, whch chronicled Beth’s cancer journey As of this writing, we don’t know how much time Beth has remaining. But she plans to make the most of it, both away from the camera and in front of the camera. Both she and Dog will soon return to television on Dog’s Most Wanted, their new show for WGN America. The 10-part series will follow the husband-and-wife duo and their team of bounty hunters (“The Dirty Dozen”) as they hunt the FBI, U.S. Marshals, and State’s Most Wanted Fugitives. We continue to send Beth our best best wishes. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Beat Cancer

90 Day Fiance Divorce: Ashley Filed Just Days Before Hospitalization

Just two days before Ashley Martson was found unresponsive at home and hospitalized , she filed for divorce from Jay Smith. The 90 Day Fiance couple had stayed together despite Jay’s cheating, but apparently not forever. Curiously, Ashley was not the only Season 6 star who filed for divorce on that exact same date. Late Wednesday morning, blogger John Yates shared  The court document from Cumberland County, Pennsylvania  The plaintiff is Ashley E Smith — Ashley Martson’s married name. The defendant is Conroy St. Christopher Smith — whom 90 Day Fiance all know as Jay. What is really interesting about this divorce filing is the date. This was filed on January the 11, 2019. Two things are significant about that date. As we previously reported, Ashley was hospitalized on January 13 — just two days later. She was found unresponsive at her home. During her battle with lupus, she had gone into kidney failure. Some can say that it’s fate or that she collapsed from a broken heart, but … again, she collapsed from kidney failure. There’s nothing romantic about lupus. The other interesting thing about the January 11 date is that she wasn’t the only 90 Day Fiance star to file for divorce on that date. Mere hours after Larissa Dos Santos Lima’s latest arrest, Colt Johnson filed for divorce . That would have also been on January 11. This followed an incident in which both Colt and Larissa accuse the other of domestic battery (there are a lot of disputed facts). In contrast, Ashley is believed to have filed for divorce because Jay downloaded Tinder and cheated on her just days after their wedding. That’s bad, but it’s not the same as Larissa’s scary bloody cry for help . Is this a huge coincidence? Maybe. But it has been reported that Ashley and Jay are operating under a non-disclosure agreement. Why? Because they are appearing on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? (Yes, the question mark in the title of that spin-off absolutely belongs there) Do you know who else was filming Happily Ever After? Larissa and Colt, as Larissa revealed more than once as she wailed on social media about Colt’s cheating. We wonder which dates exactly were covered by their Happily Ever After? contracts. Did Ashley and Colt have to wait before filing for divorce until that date in order to meet their contractual obligations? (If so, that would really feed into conspiracy theories, some voiced by Larissa herself, that Colt planned their horrifying fight in advance) Alternatively, did Ashley see that Colt had filed for divorce and just decide “f–k it, if they’re filing, I’m filing too.” Nobody wants to be the first to divorce, we suppose. Or, again, it could all be a coincidence. There is a chance that we will never see an explanation for the curious timing of divorce filings. That said, Ashley’s focus right now is probably on her health battle and of course on her children. Lupus is a serious and brutal illness that is treatable for some, but may claim the lives of others. Thanks to some generous 90 Day Fiance fans, Ashley was able to afford her surgery . We wish her happiness and health as she recovers from this frightening medical ordeal. We definitely prefer reality TV drama over real-life medical emergencies, thank you very much.
