Jenelle Evans to Hurricane Florence: Bring It On, Bish!

As you've no doubt heard by now, Hurricane Florence is due to make landfall early Friday morning. Meteorologists expect the storm to hit the Carolinas at category 4 magnitude, bringing with it devastating storm surges and 140 MPH winds. For obvious reasons, those living near the coast have been cautioned to evacuate. Sadly, some are forced to stay put for medical or other reasons. Then there are those who foolishly look at natural disasters as opportunities to put their badass survival skills to the test and inevitably end up begging for help from the same government organizations who implored them to head for safer territory. Guess which category Jenelle Evans falls into. Jump into the gallery below for the stirring saga that is Jenelle vs. Florence … 1. Jenelle Evans Hearts Hurricanes Jenelle posted this photo as the Carolinas brace for Hurricane Florence. She captioned the pic “#NewProfilePic #HurricaneFlorence #PrayForNC #PrayForSC” Good to see she has her priorities straight, 2. Give Us the Prayers, Dude! Despite being wealthy and not having a full-time job, Jenelle Evans doesn’t want to take the basic steps to ensure her family’s safety. She does want you to pray for her, though. 3. Sympathy For the Devil Yes, Jenelle won’t lift a finger to improve her situation, but she’s been posting tweets like this one to ensure her fans remain deeply worried about her well-being. 4. Be Concerned … But Not TOO Concerned Jenelle wants the best of both worlds. She wants the attention that comes with being in harm’s way, but if anyone advises her to save herself, she’s quick to assure them there’s no cause for alarm. 5. Jenelle-splaining When fans started to get serious and warn Jenelle to get the hell out of Dodge, she became irate, which is her response to literally every situation. 6. Angry Evans “I do not live in the evacuation zone or a flood area,” Jenelle tweeted. “Not sure what county you think I live in.” View Slideshow

Barbara Kavovit: Joining The Real Housewives of New York City!

Poor Luann de Lesseps has been so embattled during her recovery from alcoholism . She could always use another friend — and there’s good news. Luann’s friend Barbara Kavovit will be joining the cast of The Real Housewives of New York City . This won’t be the first time that viewers have heard what she has to say on the show, however. … Us Weekly confirms that Barbara Kavovit is joining The Real Housewives of New York City ! Barbara, who runs an on-the-go bag business called DIYva, is known for her friendship with Luann de Lesseps. Given Luann’s recent struggles with sobriety and the hurtful claims that some have made about her recovery, fans will be happy to see Luann have another ally in the room. It is unclear whether Barbara will be a Full Housewife or not, and Bravo has declined to confirm that Barbara is joining at all just yet. But given that Carole Radziwill has just departed after six seasons of that status, someone has to fill that role. Back in Season 9, Barbara had an off-camera discussion with Carole Radziwill about Tom D’Agostino, who was, at the time, Luann’s fiance. She didn’t show up on camera in the episode, which aired in May of 2017, but fans could hear her voice because it was picked up by Carole’s mic. “I think she has something to prove,” Barbara could be heard speculating about Luann’s determination to get married. If you’ll recall, everyone tried to talk her out of marrying this man who was clearly no good for her. To no avail. “She’d rather go through with it and get divorced than call it off,” Barbara assessed. It was reported that Barbara tried her best to prevent the audio from airing. She and Luann are friends. After all, in May of 2017, Luann and Tom were still married. But that wouldn’t last much longer. Their 8-month marriage came to a crashing halt in August of that year. (You know, just how Barbara and Bethenny and everyone else had told her that it would) Clearly, Barbara’s little bit of gossip that aired hasn’t hurt her friendship with Luann in the long run. They were spotted hanging out together just last month! As we mentioned, Carole has departed from the series. “After six seasons on Bravo’s  RHONYC , I have decided to return to what I do best,” Carole said in a statement. Carole clarified that she means that she will be focusing on “journalism and producing.” “I am sure this does not come as a surprise to any of the viewers, all of whom have been supportive, encouraging, and kind,” she writes. That is a very generous assessment. Every Housewife has fans and haters in droves. “My original curiosity about reality television has waned over the years,” Carole explains. That definitely sounds a lot better than Bethenny and I stopped being friends and this isn’t fun anymore . “And,” Carole continued. “I am focusing on TV and writing projects that better suit my more steady temperament.” “I have worked with amazing producers, made great friends, and I’m thrilled to leave frenemies behind,” Carole says. Carole’s statement concludes: “I will remember this entire experience with delight, humor, and a veracious accuracy.” Let’s hope that Barbara Kavovit enjoys her stay.

Jessie James Decker Shows Off Post-Baby Body, Aims to Inspire Other Mothers

Six weeks after welcoming a baby girl into the world, Jessie James Decker has taken to Instagram to show off her post-baby body. But not for the reason you may think. Unlike Kim Kardashian or other famous mothers who take pride in how quickly they lose weight after giving birth, the singer shared this photo to thank fans for their support… but also to inspire other moms around the world. “I don’t want to mislead any mommy’s who just had babies and are stressing,” Decker wrote as part of a long caption, adding: “I am still 15 pounds away from what I was originally before I got pregnant with Vivianne. “I take occasional walks but haven’t done anything yet to try and lose weight and am in no rush!” Earlier this month, Decker also shared a beautiful photo of her breastfeeding her child. She wants to help normalize that important act, while also helping fellow mothers relax about their own figures in the aftermath of becoming a parent. “Nursing mamas should def not try and do any severe diets or milk supply will run low,” she also wrote on Instagram. “My tummy is still swollen and you can see my c-section scar and pooch! I had another due to my 9 lb. baby and petite frame. “So no rushing and no stressing about losing weight!” Just a few days ago, another famous mom made another strong statement, though for an unfortunate reason: Hayden Panettiere entered a treatment program for postpartum depression.

Carole Middleton: Battling Alcoholism, Humiliating Kate Middleton, Source Claims

Earlier this month, we reported that Carole Middleton got noticeably drunk while attending a rugby match at London’s Twickenham Stadium. A single instance of Carole knocking back one pint too many is amusing. Unfortunately, sources are now claiming that it happens quite often and that Duchess Kate often cringes in embarrassment at her mother’s sloshed behavior. “It seems to be happening a lot lately,” a source tells Star magazine. “It’s a huge concern for Kate. She’ll hide her booze at her house, but mom just brings her own! Last Christmas, Carole had too much to drink and started telling totally inappropriate jokes. “Kate was so humiliated that she finally had to drag her away. She told her mom if she doesn’t straighten up, she’ll be banned from all royal events.” Of course, if Kate is really so concerned, she should probably stop quietly ushering her mom out of the room and start taking her to meetings. We know Kate has two kids and a whole heap of royal obligations to work with, but certainly her siblings should have time to help their mum get off the sauce, right? Pippa can’t keep a job , and James seems to devote most of his time to beard maintenance. Then again, those two might be a big of why Carole is getting snockered on a regular basis.

Kate Middleton: Pressured to Have Third Royal Baby By …

Kate Middleton is already being pressured to get pregnant again and have a third royal baby, but it’s a surprising person who’s leading that charge. Despite Kate wanting to shut down the royal baby factory for good after the birth of Princess Charlotte, insiders claim she’s gotten pushback there. From Carole Middleton, Catherine’s mum. That’s right, Kate’s mom – not any member of Prince William’s royal family – is the one urging the Duchess of Cambridge to keep crankin’ ’em out. Her first two pregnancies captivated the world, stimulated the British economy hard and generally made Kate and all things close to her look swell. Carole, meanwhile, is seen by many observers as the quiet orchestrator behind the scenes of Kate’s subtle but firm break from royal family tradition. Kate’s made it clear she wants no royal family members around her kids , and for Princess Charlotte and Prince George to experience normal life. They will never be “normal” as we think of it, but in eschewing London’s palace life for their country estate of Amner Hall, Kate’s motives are clear. Not to mention, Carole and Pippa Middleton were among the first to meet Princess Charlotte, and have played major roles in George’s upbringing. View Slideshow: 12 Celebrity Charlottes: The Princess and Her Peeps Since Prince William and Kate left Kensington Palace, Carole has moved into Amner Hall on almost a full-time basis as her granchildren’s caretaker. Her motives are equally transparent. By making herself a vital part of George and Charlotte’s lives, Carole is asserting control over the family , and another baby would only help cement it. Despite the health risks involved with another pregnancy , family insiders are certain Kate Middleton will be pregnant before long with her third child. Kate’s uncle, Gary Goldsmith, told Hello! , “I don’t think they’ll stop at two.” India Hicks, cousin to Prince Charles, reiterated the point, adding: “I think [Kate Middleton and Prince William] could have the perfect ending with a boy and girl. But I suspect they won’t stop there.” Added another palace source even before Charlotte’s birth, “I would put money on them having more. Whatever this baby is, there will be another.” She’s only 33 and while Prince George and Princess Charlotte would complete this family beautiful, it looks like #GreatKateWait3 is officially ON!!!

The Real Housewives of New York City Season Finale Recap: All’s Well That Doesn’t End Well

It’s The Real Housewives of New York City and “All’s Well that Doesn’t End Well” in this season finale. As a matter of fact there are moments when it’s downright painful. We recap the anger, arguments, and lack of apologies in THG’s +/- review. Has anyone else had enough of the new girls this season?  Aviva is crazy but it’s hard to be entertained when she’s screeching every time she’s on the screen.  On the flip side Heather and Carole are simply boring.  Minus 20 . But back to our recap…Aviva brings her father along to Carole’s ping pong charity event.  All the man has to do is stay away from Ramona but apparently that’s too much to ask.  Minus 12. He’s got to go over and try to bait Mario.  At least Mario keeps everything civil. The ping pong event looked like a lot and something different from your normal fundraiser. Plus 9 .  And an extra plus 3 for Carole’s preppy little ping pong outfit that made her look like she just stepped out of 1955. Plus 10 to Heather who tells Aviva once again that she’s sick of having the same conversation where Aviva bitches about Ramona.  Unfortunately I doubt it will change anything. The next event is Heather’s fashion show to raise money for organ donation.  It features her Yummy Tummy collection and she asks Aviva to walk in the show.  What could go wrong? Just before she’s about to hit the catwalk, Aviva tells Heather she doesn’t want to wear the jacket.  Heather’s planned this show down to the finest detail and the jacket is part of the outfit.  She explains this to Aviva but apparently it goes in one ear and out the other. Aviva chooses to walk sans jacket anyway.  Minus 15 .  What a selfish, arrogant…I don’t want to start name calling. I’ll start to sound like Aviva. But Heather takes the high road and decides to let it go.  Plus 11 for being the better person. Unfortunately her good will is all used up by the time she comes face to face with Sonja and Ramona. Minus 10 because Ramona and Sonja are horribly rude during the runway show.  They’re loud and obnoxious and I’m not sure they ever even looked up at the catwalk. Sonja seemed just fine about the toaster oven packaging at the meeting but once she and Ramona start interrogating the photographer, things are no longer so happy. What Sonja and Ramona seem to forget is that all of this was done for free!  How can Sonja possibly complain about anything? The wave of discontent spills over into Carole’s book party.  After hearing the summary of her book, I don’t think I’d ever buy it. Minus 9. Then Heather’s husband asks Ramona about Aviva and Aviva’s antennae go wild.  It’s like she’s just waiting for Ramona to speak her name so she can go on the attack. Aviva completely loses it once again and Ramona soon follows. Minus 12 . It would be entertaining if we hadn’t watched this same scene ten time this season.  I’m with Heather on this one.  How many times can you listen to the same fight? Aviva seems torn between George being a hero and a victim.  And Minus 10 to Heather and Carole. At Ramona’s fundraiser they seemed to take her side that George was wrong but now with Aviva screeching like a lunatic, they back her.   I think being two faced is a prerequisite for being on a Housewives show. In the end the recap is pretty boring… Ramona is still keeping her distance from Aviva…until an exorcism can be performed.  I don’t blame her. Sonja’s life with her ex and her toaster oven is still in limbo. Heather’s got nothing new going on. LuAnn and Jacques are letting nature take it’s course. Sounds like baby making is on shaky ground. Aviva still waiting for an apology from Ramona. Carole’s working on making her book into a TV show and she and Russ are now officially dating. Ho hum.  Perhaps we do need Aviva screaming at Ramona to keep things interesting.  Will anything new come out at next week’s reunion? EPISODE TOTAL: -55! SEASON TOTAL: -355!

The Real Housewives of New York City: What Happens in St. Barths Doesn’t Stay in St. Barths

The Real Housewives of New York City comes back from vacation and “What Happens in St. Barths Doesn’t Stay in St. Barths.” We’ll recap the self righteous ranting and why Karma’s a bitch in our THG +/- review. The ladies make their way back to the city where their trip to St. Barths is rehashed until I thought I’d be nauseous if I heard about it one more time. Minus 12 . But the one thing no one is talking about…Luann and Tomas.

The Real Housewives of New York City Recap: Diss-Invite

Just when I thought this season of The Real Housewives of New York City might end up being the new housewives versus the old, “Diss-Invite” turned that fear upside down. It’s actually become all of the housewives against Ramona. Who saw that coming? So let’s break it all down in our THG +/- recap. First off, what do you think of the new housewives? When the opening conversation between Aviva and Carole consisted of what they’d eaten for breakfast…Aviva ate a hard boiled egg and Carole a sugar cookie for those who missed that fascinating tidbit…I thought about going to bed early. Minus 12 . Are these women just that boring or do I need to get some more sleep? When Ramona showed up with gifts I was surprised by Aviva’s comments. I realized that Ramona’s pimping her own skin care line but it was still nice of her to hand out presents. Minus 5 to Aviva for the sarcasm. Ramona’s searching for Heather haters but it didn’t seem to be working. As both Ramona and Heather talk too much a talking intervention was proposed. Wait. Would we still have a show if they all shut up? Where was Sonja during lunch.
