Josh Taekman Admits, Apologizes For Ashley Madison Account

Josh Taekman has been outed. The husband of Real Housewives of New York star Kristen Taekman was forced to admit Monday night that he had an account with Ashley Madison, the infamous – and now infamously compromised – website that helps spouses cheat on their significant others. Taekman told People via statement, addressing his role in the scandal: “I signed up for the site foolishly and ignorantly with a group of friends and I deeply apologize for any embarrassment or pain I have brought to my wife and family.” “We both look forward to moving past this and getting on with our lives.” As fans who watch The Real Housewives of New York online know, Kristen and Josh have had marital issues ever since first appearing on Bravo. They engaged in so many fights, in fact, and viewers grew so uncomfortable by the spats, that producers decided to stop showing Josh on the series. Earlier this month, a bunch of hackers broke into Ashley Madison and released the identity of over 30 million users looking for a cheating partner. It was revealed last week that 19 Kids & Counting star Josh Duggar , YouTube vlogger Sam Rader and a Louisiana GOP official also had accounts. Who will be next? Who won’t be next?

Ben Higgins Confirms: I’m The Next Bachelor!

We told you first at THG. Now The Bachelor himself is finally announcing it: Ben Higgins will be doling out the roses this coming winter on ABC. Ben, the third-place finisher from Kaitlyn Bristowe’s Bachelorette season, joined Chris Harrison for the Bachelor in Paradise after-show last night. There, the handsome software salesman confirmed he will carry the franchise torch next, one of the worst-kept Bachelor spoilers in modern times. Higgins won over America (and producers) in his quest to woo Bristowe this season despite coming up short behind Shawn Booth and Nick Viall. Or, perhaps simply because he is neither Shawn Booth or Nick Viall. Prior to the announcement, producers considered having both Ben Higgins and Ben Zorn, another suitor from Bristowe’s season, be The Bachelor. Proposed title … The Bachelor: All About The Benjamins . Clever stuff. Ultimately, though, no one remembers who Ben Zorn is, and the dual Bachelorette twist of Kaitlyn and Britt Nilsson was beyond useless. So they went and made Ben Higgins The Bachelor 2016 . He’s not the most buzzworthy pick, but maybe that’s a good thing after recent years. Plus, Ben has the stamp of approval from Kaitlyn, for sure. “I say to everybody. Every girl. Every man. Every dog. Everyone out there will agree with me right now that Ben H. is the man,” Bristowe said. Do you agree with Kait? Sound off below! View Slideshow: 13 Hottest Bachelors in ABC History
