Fans are so optimistic about Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott getting back together that some think that they’re already dating again. A new report says that this isn’t quite the case, even though they are spending an awful lot of time together and it’s not all about Stormi. But sources close to the couple think that they’ll definitely get back together — and they’ve even worked out a timeline. TMZ reports that, though Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott may have broken up, they’re not entirely acting like it. And though the two had already affirmed their commitment to co-parenting Stormi, it doesn’t look like their time together is all about their daughter. Despite falling out of love, sources describe how Travis has been spending an awful lot of time at Kylie’s house. There are no plans to change this pattern any time soon, of course, as that’s where their precious little girl lives. But after Travis injured his knee on stage during a performance, he’s now recouperating over at Kylie’s. We’re pretty sure that couple breaks up, then man gets injured and must be tended to and they fall back in love is a standard romance premise. But even on the nights when Travis does not sleep over, he’s clearly still taking a walk down memory lane. On those nights, the rapper sleeps at the Beverly Hills home where he and Kylie and Stormi had previously lived together. Travis and Kylie are intentionally working on co-parenting as friends. Friendship is a different dynamic than what they had before. But the calendar itself is going to force the two to spend even more time together, because the holidays are coming up. As evidenced by Kim taking the reins of the big Kardashian Christmas Eve party last year, the holidays are a huge deal for that family. It makes sense, when you have such a large and very close family all living in such proximity to each other. Travis and Kylie are going to make sure that they’re both there for Stormi as her parents to give her “normal” holiday experiences. And even though they’re not currently a couple, some who’ve had their eyes on these two expect that to change before too long. The holidays can bring people closer, and Kylie does have a pattern of getting back with her exes … again and again and again. Kylie and Travis have a lot of unusual factors in their relationship that make them better able to co-parent after a breakup. For one thing, they are both rich. Travis is a millionaire. Kylie is a billionaire. When money is not a stress factor, either for childcare or vacations or anything else, it’s just easier to focus on your child after a breakup. They also became pregnant within weeks of dating, so they didn’t really have a lot of relationship baggage — good or bad — from before the baby bump. They also didn’t have a messy breakup. Despite unsubstantiated cheating rumors , more credible reports say that they just fell out of love. These factors make them better able to co-parent harmoniously, which is very much to the benefit of their daughter. Stormi delights in both of her parents and is growing up faster than any of us can believe. In a recent video, Stormi was listening to a song in which Kylie sings, but demanded that Kylie play music where “daddy sings.” Kylie was clearly amused by this request. Stormi was toddling around, holding the phone, and even tried to swipe the screen. She’s going to have a blast over these holidays. She may even form some lasting memories this time around. As for Kylie and Travis … no one knows the future, but there’s a decent chance that they’ll fall back into old habits under the mistletoe.

The amazing #BlackGirlMagic making tennis player not only won a title she made history this weekend at Austria’s WTA and became the youngest winner of a singles trophy on the WTA tour since 2004.

It sounds very much as if we now know when Sister Wives will return . But one rather enormous question continues to hang over this long-running reality show: Will Meri Brown continue to be part of the cast? We’ve been asking this question for several months now, considering some believe Meri is no longer wearing her wedding ring and just considering how open she’s been forever about her unhappiness. Of all the Sister Wives, Meri has tried the most to branch off on her own, even trying to actively date outside of the marriage a couple years ago, as you likely know. You likely know how that went as well . More recently, Meri has been using her social media platforms to share mysterious messages at time, many of which seem to point to someone still trying to seek some sort of happiness in life. Just consider the latest, for example: “ Give . But don’t allow yourself to be used,” the Sister Wives star wrote, adding in this meme: “ Love . But don’t allow your heart to be abused. Trust . But don’t be naive. Listen . But don’t lose your own voice.” This does sort of possibly summarize Meri’s issues as a member of Kody Brown’s sexist and messed up clan. It can’t be easy to feel like you have a voice of your own when you are one of multiple women whose only job in life is to serve the husband you share. This struggle may explain why Meri is so often out on her own, away from the other family members in Flagstaff, Arizona. Why might Meri post something along these lines now? Well, Kody and Robyn Brown just bought themselves a mansion , yet another example that Meri is pretty far down in the Sister Wives pecking order. On Sunday, she took a walk in a secluded grove of aspen trees and shared a rather heartfelt message on Instagram in the process. “I needed to self reflect and figure some things out,” Meri wrote as a caption to the very first image published above, adding: “I needed to address some things inside of me that were screaming to be addressed. I needed to give myself a big emotional hug from the inside out.” Yikes, huh? Like we keep emphasizing, it really doesn’t sound like Meri is doing very well these days. “My big takeaway from this, (obviously among others that I don’t choose to go into on this forum) is I’m ok. I’m a good person. I goof up sometimes, I’m not perfect, but I work to be better,” she continued, echoing another recent post . “I’m worthy and worth it. I’m proud of who I am. I love my life. I love my family. I love my friends. These things are ALL important to me and I value them. “I value the relationships I have that push me to be a better me. I value the relationships I have that support me when I’m not so loveable. I value the relationships I have that see the good in me and value what I have to give. “I value the relationships I have that have stuck with me through rough times and still see me as worth it.” And, in conclusion? I know there are some who have let me go and given up on me and that’s ok. I will continue to love, to care, to be there. I will continue being the best me I can be. I will continue being happy with me. We truly hope Meri Brown soon finds whatever it is she’s looking for. View Slideshow: Meri and Kody Brown: Is This Really It for the Sister Wives Couple?
Millions of fans rejoiced at the news that Jamie Spears is out as Britney’s conservator . For now, her personal life will be managed by another. Britney’s mom has been fighting in court to wrest control from Jamie so that she can look after her daughter’s affairs. Unfortunately, she has now lost that court battle — and Jamie is expected to resume his tyrannical hold on Britney as early as January. TMZ reports that Lynne Spears’ fight for her daughter’s conservatorship did not go as planned. Lynne felt that Jamie had been doing a poor job when acting as their famous daughter’s conservator. She wanted the reigns. But the court ruled that Jamie will continue to manage Britney’s estate from a financial angle. Jodi Montgomery is currently handling the more personal aspects of the conservatorship. Jamie hand-picked Jodi while stepping back from the role, allegedly for medical reasons, in the wake of his alleged attack on Britney’s son. For many years, Lynne Spears did not appear — at least to the public — to take much interest in the conservatorship. That changed this spring, when Britney’s sudden 30-day stint in a mental health facility prompted cries of alarm and “Free Britney.” While some of the outcry was well-intentioned but a little dehumanizing, some fans were surprised to see Lynne agree with them. She has openly discussed her belief that Britney’s social media appears to be manipulated, perhaps without her knowledge. Then, Lynne filed documents to see more of what’s going on with Britney’s health management. Britney is an incredible mother, a titan of the music industry, and beloved all over the world. She is also a grown woman. She is 37. In two months and a little change, she’ll be 38. TMZ notes that just about everyone “in the know” agrees that the conservatorship initially saved her life. That may well be true — but that doesn’t mean that it needs to stay. It has been in effect for nearly 12 years, now. How long before Britney is permitted to manage her own life? Reports claim that Britney’s mental and emotional well being is less than ideal at the moment. For instance, Britney just recently backed out of an appearance at an awards show, opting to race back to the car. And her stay at a mental health facility earlier this year was reportedly so that she could find a new medication that works. Of course, vague claims about a mysterious mental illness are hard for many fans to swallow, and not because it’s an “invisible illness.” There are conspiracy theorists who believe that reports about Britney are deliberately exaggerated … to keep the conservatorship alive. We don’t know that we’d go that far, but we can certainly join millions of Britney’s other fans in wishing to keep Jamie as far away from her affairs as possible. Jamie may be off the hook for child abuse charges , despite allegedly breaking down a door to assault then 13-year-old Sean Preston. But that doesn’t mean that he’s, you know, a good person or safe to be around. Reports say that Britney hasn’t spoken to her awful father since that scary incident — perhaps even since before that. And she and Sean Federline made sure that the boys were safe, sending them to Kevin’s immediately where Jamie’s conservatorship means squat. Both of Britney’s sons now have restraining orders barring their garbage grandfather from seeing them for the next three years.

Aron Eisenberg, who played the fan-favorite role of Nog in “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine,” has died at the age of 50 . According to E! News , the actor’s wife, Malissa Longo, shared early Saturday morning that Eisenberg was hospitalized in critical condition, without further explanation. Later that night she shared the tragic news to Facebook that he had passed away. “It is with extreme regret and sadness to announce that my love and best friend, Aron Eisenberg, passed away earlier today,” she began her post. “He was an intelligent, humble, funny, emphatic soul. He sought to live his life with integrity and truth.” “He was so driven to put the best he had into whatever work was put before him,” the post continued. “He lived his life with such vigor and passion. He was like a breath of fresh air, because I knew I would always hear the truth from him. Even if I didn’t want to hear it and even if the truth was inconvenient.” Longo then went on to explain in detail just how much of an impact her husband had on her life. “He made me (and still makes me) want to be the best human I can possibly be, because he always strove to be the best human he could be,” she explained. “His resilience and willingness to learn was and is an inspiration.” Eisenberg and Longo got engaged back in 2016, and it was in her heartfelt message that she reveled they had eloped back in December after the holidays. “We were hoping to have a big shindig in celebration of our nuptials, but had to wait to save up the money,” she wrote. “While, our marriage, on paper, was a short one. Our hearts had been married for far longer.” “I will forever be thankful for the time we had to love each other. Five years felt like a lifetime, in the best possible ways,” she shared. “There will never be another light like Aron’s. The beauty that he was and the legacy he leaves behind is beyond words. I love him dearly and will him eternally.” “At the moment I’m not sure how to do life without him… He is and always will be My California,” Longo concluded her beautiful message. Eisenberg had battled some serious health issues throughout his life, including the fact that he was born with one defective kidney which stunted his growth. He was on dialysis until age 13 and underwent a kidney transplant at 17, he also underwent another transplant in 2015. Besides his unfortunate health conditions, Eisenberg went on to play the role of Nog, the first Ferengi to join Starfleet, on the series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine , which aired from 1993-1999. He later played Kazon on Star Trek: Voyager and he also appeared on shows such as The Wonder Years , Parker Lewis Can’t Lose and Tales From the Crypt. In recent years, however, he spent his time working as a professional photographer. Many of his co-stars and friends mourned his loss, including Armin Shimerman, who played Eisenberg’s character’s uncle Quark on the Star Trek series. “He was a man of conviction and enormous sensitivity and the best of humanity. [My wife] Kitty and I grieve for Aron, his boys, and Malissa. Flight of angels my friend… you will be missed. There are no words…” he wrote. Garrett Wang, who played Harry Kim on Star Trek: Voyager , posted a video of Eisenberg at a fan convention where he also promoted a link to a GoFundMe page, created to help raise money to cover funeral costs. Aron is survived by his wife and his two sons, Christopher Eisenberg and Nicholas Eisenberg. We send our condolences to his friends, fans, and loved ones. May he rest in peace.

Folks, it's another new low for Farrah Abraham! For reasons that aren't entirely clear, Abraham was in attendance at the 2019 Emmys on Sunday night — and while she didn't drag her 10-year-old daughter along as a red carpet prop like she usually does, she still took advantage of the opportunity to further traumatize poor Sophia. Tik Tok was briefly mentioned during the ceremony, so Farrah decided it would be a perfect time to use the app to post a wildly inappropriate video starring her unfortunate offspring. It was disgusting, there's no doubt about that — but did it cross the line into child abuse? That's what some of Abraham's followers are currently arguing in the comments. Check out the nauseating clip and decide for yourself. 1. Working the Circuit For reasons that aren’t entirely clear, Farrah and Sophia have been invited to a LOT of A-list events in recent weeks. 2. Red Carpet Randos First, they attended the Venice Film Festival together. Hey, maybe Backdoor Teen Mom is considered a cinematic classic in Europe? 3. Pond-Hoppers From there, it was off to New York to attend the launch party for Jenelle Evans’ cosmetics line. Okay, so not all of the events were A-list affairs. 4. How Did This Happen? But the crowning event on Farrah’s recently jam-packed social calendar had to be the 2019 Emmy Awards, which were held in Los Angeles Sunday night. 5. Not at the Cool Kids’ Table As evidenced by this hilariously sad collage she posted on Instagram, Farrah didn’t get close to many stars. In fact, it looked as though she walked an entirely different red carpet. 6. Shout-Out From Sophia Sophia was not able to join her mom at the awards, but as usual, she sang Farrah’s praises in the comments section. View Slideshow
The Duggar family will always be a controversial bunch. But if there’s one member of the Counting On clan that most folks can agree on, it’s Jinger. Jinger has rebelled against Jim Bob’s strict teachings in a number of significant ways, which has endeared her to the many who have been highly critical of her family. But to fans of the Duggars, Jinger still represents the core, ultra-conservative values that drew them to her family in the first place. It’s a tricky balancing act, but the mother-of-one pulls it off. Speaking of her offspring, it seems Jinger’s appeal is hereditary, as it’s possible that none of Jim Bob and Michelle’s grandchildren have received quite as much adoration as Felicity. Every time Jinger posts new photos of Felicity , the crowd goes wild. So you can imagine the reaction to the revelation that the 1-year-old took her first steps this week, “Seeing Felicity grow and develop new skills is like watching a flower bloom,” Jinger captioned the pic above. ”It seems like overnight that she’s gone from being fully reliant upon us for everything, to mastering crawling, leaving dad & mom chasing her all over the place!” she continued. “Last night, Felicity conquered her rocking horse, which was no small feat! She had that thing moving…might I add, it was on carpet, making it much more difficult to maintain speed,” Jinger went on before getting to the big reveal: “Felicity has taken a few solo steps in recent days, but seems to embrace a more cautious approach when it comes to her strides. I know that these days will pass quickly, and she will be running all over the place. “I am just so thankful to have a front row seat, watching this little one explore the world around her. Many were quick to shower Jinger and her family with congratulations, including her sister-in-law Anna: “Such a precious season of life! Felicity is beautiful inside and out!” Josh’s wife wrote. Others echoed that sentiment, including one fan, who wrote: “Enjoy this time they grow up so fast! She’s adorable.” Yes, it’s more than a little ironic that the so-called “rebel Duggar” has been the one to unite the Counting On community. Here’s hoping her daughter inherited her defiant spirit.

Wednesday marked the 18th anniversary of 9/11, a day on which thousands of lives were lost, and America’s political climate was forever changed. Countless celebrities paid tribute to the fallen — and more than a few tripped over their words while marking this most delicate of occasions. Among them was Khloe Kardashian, a seasoned veteran when it comes to both putting her foot in her mouth and fending off unwarranted criticism. We’ll leave up top you to decide which description best fits her latest controversy. As you’re probably aware, Khloe and her sisters are of Armenian descent on the side of their late father, Robert Kardashian Sr. In the past, they’ve discussed their pride in their heritage and used their platforms to raise awareness of the Armenian genocide and other matters of which many Americans might be ignorant. But as you can see, fans felt that Khloe’s latest statement of affection for her ancestors’ homeland was a bit ill-timed. Armenia had no involvement in the 9/11 attacks, but many felt that it’s a day on which all Americans should focus on their shared identity, not their individual ethnic compositions: “365 days on your calendar and you chose today to say something like this..hmm,” one fan wrote. “Be proud of your roots of course but out of all the days you tweet this today. It’s ironic given that your own brand of jeans is called ‘Good American,'” another echoed. Needless to say, Khloe’s tweet wasn’t exactly a hit with her fanbase. But hey, at least Khloe wasn’t the only one to step in it on America’s most somber day of memorial. Former Teen Mom OG star Farrah Abraham took her daughter to Ground Zero and forgot the difference between a terrorist attack and a purveyor of Buffalo chicken taquitos. “Okay, so we wanted to do, since it’s gonna be September 11, in honor of the Freedom Towers and observatory deck and everything, of 7-Eleven, we are going to do this,” she said on Instagram Live. “Wow, look at this guys,” she added, panning the camera across the 9/11 memorial. So yeah, it could have been worse for Khloe. But hey, at least Farrah’s not alone in making that particular gaffe . View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Shares 5 Tips for Looking Skinny AF
