In a recent interview, Courtney Stodden’s mother said that she regrets allowing her daughter to marry Doug Hutchison at the age of 16. Yet here they are, head over heels in love, five years later! Who knew?! Despite some predictable bumps in the road, the 55-year-old actor and 21-year-old ” solo sex tape ” star are going surprisingly strong. In fact, Courtney recently confirmed to Us Weekly that she and Doug are planning to renew their vows in a “glamorous” second wedding ceremony! The puzzling pair never divorced, but their hard times did include a period of separation, during which Courtney slept with other men . All water under the bridge now, though, as they look toward the future! “We’re still in planning mode,” said Stodden at a recent PETA fundraiser. “I can finally [plan] it myself, you know, because I was 16.” “[Then] I had to have it signed [by my parents], so I think finally not having any parents involved and just doing it myself is going to be great.” “I want to do a big thing, because, you know, our first time around we married in Las Vegas next to a Chevron – it was not that glamorous!” “So I really want to play it up. I want to do the whole Cinderella thing.” Courtney added that she plans to wear a mermaid dress to walk down the aisle and that the ceremony will have “kind of an old Hollywood look.” Yeesh, another Cinderella/mermaid/old Hollywood wedding? We kid. C’mon Courtney … we know you’re caught up in the moment and everything, but part of being an adult is picking one theme and sticking with it. We know you weren’t on the prom planning committee because you were busy being married to your middle-aged acting coach, but you can’t make up for it now with some nutso Disney-under-the-sea-Bogey-and-Bacall clusterf-ck! Sorry. We’re sure it’ll be lovely. Enjoy. View Slideshow: 23 Couples With Big Age Differences
Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald appeared at the Southern Women’s Show in Orlando last week, and the unscripted Q&A session yielded some serious gaffes and surprising revelations. First we learned that Jessa and Ben responded to claims that they’re broke and effectively unemployed by…encouraging their fans to shop at Ross? We’re hoping that was part of an endorsement deal. Anyway, Jessa and Ben’s random money-saving tips were quickly overshadowed by the announcement that Jessa’s home birth will be featured on a TLC special about the Seewalds. That obviously drew an excited response from the crowd, but it seems Jessa and Ben weren’t through offering tips about how to maintain a happy home. Hey, no one understands marriage better than a couple of newlyweds in their early 20s, right? Take it away, Seewalds: Jessa Duggar & Ben Seewald’s Marriage Advice Yes, Jessa and Ben opened up about what goes on in their bedroom at night – and there was nothing remotely sexy about it. Apparently, the Seewalds have a rule against arguing “in the evening” because they feel that “everything is more dramatic at night.” They say they turn to the Bible to help them settle disputes, but frankly, that quote sounds more like tagline from Josh’s Ashley Madison profile !

Jared Padalecki does battle on a weekly basis with monsters and other creatures on the long-running CW hit, Supernatural. But the actor admitted in March that his real struggle has been with clinical depression, telling Variety that there were times he talked to a doctor about not being “happy with where I am in life.” Perhaps along those lines, the star canceled appearances in Rome and Australia last week, telling Twitter followers he was in “urgent” need of his family and asking for “all the love” they could provide. View Slideshow: HAWT Jared Padalecki Photos Padalecki has since received the latter in bunches, taking once again to social media yesterday to provide supporters with an update. “Thank you, from the bottom of my heart and soul, for your love and support,” he wrote. “It’s going to good use. All of my love and #AlwaysKeepFighting.” It remains unclear just what issues Padalecki has been dealing with, but his manager released the following statement after Padalecki canceled the aforementioned fan experiences: “Jared has pushed himself to his limits and is suffering from exhaustion. His SPN family is so important to him, and he asks that they Always Keep Fighting. At this time he needs to be home with his family.” The manager added: “He’s doing better already and is excited about shooting Supernatural Season 11 this July. For now he’s taking a break, but is so appreciative of his fans, and sees and feels their love and support.” We send Padalecki our very best wishes and we encourage readers to watch Supernatural online in order to appreciate his talent and beauty.

Scandalous rumors seemed to be flying left and right and every which way in between last night on Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta Season 4 Episode 5. Who did the whispers involve and what, exactly, was the fallout? Watch Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta Season 4 Episode 5 Online Relatively speaking, there was not all that much fallout. Yet. As always, Love and Hip Hop Atlanta Season 4 Episode 5 gave us some healthy drama, but this week felt like a setup for subsequent weeks. Notably, the inevitable and very possibly violent confrontation between Nikko Smith‘s wife Margeaux and Mimi Faust is. about. togo. down. It just didn’t happen last night, so … sorry for that you guys. Nikko told Margeaux that the Mimi Faust sex tape was masterminded by her, while we’ve long been led to believe that it was Nikko’s brainchild. Margeaux believes Nikki, because of course she does. She tells Joseline, and Karlie Redd, all likely at the direction of VH1 producers who will make damn sure it gets back to Mimi and s–t hits the fan. We watch Love and Hip Hop Atlanta online regularly enough to know this is how it often plays out, and we’re sure we’re not alone in that aspect. Meanwhile, Stevie J is still in rehab , and doing well, but worrying that Joseline will be able to hold back from drinking and taking drugs in front of him. Momma Dee is back with Ernest, the man she sent to prison seven years earlier. Their son Lil Scrappy is taken aback, but his sister is just livid. Rasheeda is almost as pissed at her husband Kirk Frost for going $100K over budget in purchasing their home. That’s quite a few zeroes over. Mimi, before she hears about the aforementioned rumors of her sex tape mastery, is trying to manage Tiffany Foxx and Jessica Dime Piece. These two do not get along as they angle for attention and both come off looking pretty unstable. Also, there is someone named PriMadonna. They say Love and Hip Hop Atlanta is like Twitter: There are about 140 characters and someone’s always furious and spewing utter nonsense. Okay, no one says that … but it is accurate, no?!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore made a shocking announcement on Instagram about her new boyfriend James Freeman: He is married! We aren’t surprised. This isn’t the first time we’ve heard reports of Kenya dating a married man , and honestly, it probably won’t be the last. In her Instagram statement, she revealed the truth to her fans: “Unfortunately, I just learned today that the man I met and fell in love with from Millionaire Matchmaker was married a week after the show aired.” “I am astounded and devastated to have learned of this news VIA social media as opposed to from him directly.” “However, I still believe in love and my heart remains open to the man God has for me. I wish him well.” Kenya and James met on Millionaire Matchmaker . The show’s star, Patti Stanger, hooked them up, and things seemed to be going well for a while. In March, after meeting James, Kenya posted on Instagram: “Sometimes you can spend your whole life looking for Prince Charming when a King arrives.” “Thank you @pattistanger and @cynthiabailey10 and my fans for your love and support and desire for my happiness. #matchmaker #KingJames” “#FriendsFirst #MillionaireMatchmaker.” Kenya also mentioned her relationship on a recent HelloBeautiful (dot) com interview: “Even though I know we met on reality TV, I feel like I need to guard that situation. I don’t need to live it in public, I don’t need to tell people or post pictures on Instagram. I just want to enjoy where I am right now.” View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Cast Photos “I’m in a great place in my life. Whether it works out or it doesn’t, what makes me feel good is that I’ve inspired other people,” she added. “A lot of people are excited for me, so I just have to take baby steps.” “Nearly 43 percent of all Black women have never been married, I feel like I give hope to women who want that.” Looks like she is back to the drawing board. Fans are offering tons of support for Kenya, but not everyone is a fan. Celeb-enemy Vivica A. Fox battled with Moore on Celebrity Apprentice . And it appears the two still aren’t getting along. Fox tweeted, “Well dayummnn #ToxicTrick Kenya Moore strikes again! The guy she said was her new guy is actually married? SMDH WTH!? #ByeTrick.” Moore might not have the support she needs right now as she deals with this blow. NeNe Leakes recently threatened to sue Kenya for damaging her brand. And Kenya has engaged in a dispute with Phaedra Parks for some time concerning rumors about Phaedra’s imprisoned husband, Apollo Nida. Kenya has a habit of thinking her dude friends are her legit boyfriend. Anyone remember Walter? The guy she was pressuring to propose to her who wasn’t even dating her?

On The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Episode 19, one of the wives bailed on the latest group trip, and a drama-filled dinner ensued in the Philippines. Who’s out, and for what reason? And what tension went down in the island chain? Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Episode 19 Online Not even leaving the ultimate baggage behind – NeNe – could make for a totally drama-free trip on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Episode 19 . NeNe Leakes stayed behind to meet with the creative director of Cinderella , who was less than impressed by her reading for a part in the new movie. “I want to bring it,” Leakes said after her idea for “two accents” didn’t go over well. “You better bring it,” her would-be boss said. “Your name is on the marquee.” Down in the Philippines, the other ladies attended in detox spa in the jungle. It was actually more or less successful, even if yoga was not a huge success for Kandi Burruss, who said at the onset, “it doesn’t look easy to me, and it’s not.” Still, no one would have guessed what would happen in the middle of class. “Okay, Kandi fell asleep in the middle of yoga class,” Kenya Moore said, and it was true all right. Kandi asked if anyone else had heard her snoring. Phaedra Parks considered a coffee enema, telling the cameras “I don’t drink coffee, but I’m sure my butt wouldn’t mind a sip.” Even crazier than that? Burying the hatchet with Claudia Jordan, the cast’s latest firebrand. If you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online , you know Jordan has gone at it with Parks and Leakes, and does not mince words or hold back. Over lunch with Phaedra, Claudia tried to make amends and confessed that she knows a little about what her co-star is going through with Apollo Nida. “I went through a messy divorce and annulment myself,” Jordan said. “I went through a major depression” as a result, she admitted, and “I had suicidal thoughts … as black women, we try to pretend everything’s okay.” That heartfelt sentiment and outreach struck a chord with Phaedra. “I appreciate Claudia’s willingness to support me through whatever turmoil I’m experiencing,” Parks said. “It’s the simple things that mean so much.” Will she have as much luck, and similarly uplifting results, when she sits down with longtime nemesis Kenya, as teased in promos for next week’s episode?

Porsha Williams is keeping it as real as can be in her latest Instagram photo. Forget going make-up free. The reality star goes wig and weave-free in an image that gives most fans their very first look at her REAL hair. “#AllNatural for 2.5 seconds,” Williams wrote as a caption to the following snapshot. “@Gonakedhair installed in 3…2…1 #standby stylist: @Kellonderyck Stylist Kellon Deryck shared the same picture and added:” @porsha4real got hella hair but it’s time to put that #flawlessillusion back in.” Why did Porsha decide to open up in this manner to fans? It’s unclear, but perhaps she wants to distract folks from her recent arrest for speeding and driving on a suspended license. Or the fact that she was recently dumped by her sugar daddy . Yes, it’s been a tough run for Porsha Williams, as you can see when you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online . But hey, at least she’s keeping it real!

On The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Episode 4, Phaedra continued to face the fallout from Apollo’s decisions, while Kenya tried to mend some fences. Of course, seeing as it’s Kenya and she’s torn through more fences than … something that’s torn through a lot of fences, that proved easier said than done. Meanwhile, NeNe put those rumors of not bringing her A-game to rest. Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Episode 4 Online When The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 Episode 4 got underway, viewers saw the women partake in a spa day that quickly turned ice cold. Hanging with Kandi Burruss, Phaedra Parks and Porsha Williams, NeNe Leakes tore into Cynthia Bailey and made sure Bravo got its money’s worth . “When we stopped talking, I missed her friendship,” Leakes said. “Now I’m over it. Cynthia is trying to make her mark. It really doesn’t look cute on her.” “I’m never gonna be friends with her again. Ever!” They are never, ever, ever getting back together as friends, it sounds like. Nor do we assume Kenya Moore will be asking NeNe to the spa this season. If you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online , this was Hall of Fame smack talk behind someone’s back right here, even by their high (low?) standards. “I don’t believe Apollo,” Leakes said in response to Apollo Nida’s bombshell admission that he lied about Moore wanting to have sex with him last season. “So he’s lying about lying?” asked a befuddled Kandi. Asserting that Leakes hates Kenya and that’s why she’s throwing shade, she added, “NeNe has swept into town … spa day has become a conspiracy therapy party.” Porsha Williams, having beaten down Kenya Moore once before, seemed to side with NeNe, though Burruss did apologize to Moore at a boxing workout. “I believed them more than I believed you … I want to apologize,” she told her, after which Moore said, “If she’s willing to apologize to me, I’m like, ‘Thank God!'” Then Burruss relayed NeNe’s shade-throwing.

It’s too much,” said Moore, crying, confused and inconsolable. “The man just confessed … I don’t f–k around with anyone’s husband.” Of Nida and Leakes, Kenya lamented, “The man finally admitted after two years … I’m not the liar. He’s the criminal. We all know why NeNe is mad at me.” “You don’t want people to look at me in a different light. They’re evil! I cannot win with these women. They want me to be painted as this crazy, horrible person. Why?” Look for a pretty epic confrontation next week, along with the end of reports that the network is upset at NeNe not bringing enough drama this season.
