She posted a video of her hand with the new ring shining bright, writing in the caption, “I must be fucccinnnn dreaming!!!!!!!!!!! OMG baby! Yes yes yes” she wrote tagging her boo.

A post shared by Hazel-E (@hazelebaby) on Oct 5, 2019 at 10:41pm PDT The pair has been super lovey dovey on social media lately, so it’s no surprise that De’Von popped the question to his lady. Hazel even posted a picture of her parents at their wedding a few months back , saying she went and got herself an Aries just like her momma did because they’re such good men. Guess that strategy worked out in her favor! Congrats to the happy couple on their new engagement and future matrimony-dom!
Alaskan Bush People fans are still reeling from the news that Bear Brown and Raiven are expecting a child even though they broke up . But Bear isn’t the only one of Billy’s children who’s making headlines this month. One if Billy’s daughter’s is roasting her old man — and every other member of the family. This month, Billy Brown’s estranged Texan daughter took to Facebook to sharply shade her entire extended family. “I’ve never been the average person, walking with the herd or conforming to the masses,” Twila Byars’ post begins. She continues, admitting that she was “at some point thinking I was somewhat abnormal according to the ‘normal.'” So far, of course, she sounds like she’s in lock step with her numerous half-siblings up in Washington. But,a s you’ll see, she is of a different opinion. “So I had an Epiphany today after reading a few things,” Twila shares with her followers. WIth context, we’re guessing that she read some reports about the Brown family. Twila says that she has come to realize “that IM ACTUALLY THE NORMAL ONE IN MY D.N.A. Lineage!” Note that she does not use the word “family” or “father.” That speaks volumes. “Normal, average, and boring never felt so good,” her post concludes. If you don’t know who Twila Byars is … we don’t blame you. For decades she has lived in Texas while Billy lived in Alaska, then Beverly Hills, and now Washington with Ami and their children. But yes, she is Billy’s daughter. Reports say that the two have spoken from time to time, though “keep in touch” doesn’t mean that they speak frequently. She also appeared briefly on Alaskan Bush People in 2016. So what could Tila possibly mean when she puts Billy and seemingly his and Ami’s entire brood on blast? They are, after all, her half-siblings. And Rain, if you’ll recall, is still a minor. But we have to guess that this is at least partially about Bear Brown. The self-described King of Extreme got engaged late in August of this year. He and Raiven, his hot model girlfriend, were so excited … until they broke up, not two weeks later. A two week engagement must be a record, even for reality shows. But that wasn’t the end of their story. After resolving to remain friends, the two of them had another announcement that caught even them by surprise. Raiven is pregnant by Bear. While the two have wisely decided to co-parent as friends, it’s definitely unexpected news. Baby announcements may come before or after the engagement, but seldom after the breakup. Tila may have been taking aim at that. That said, she could have been talking about almost anything. Rumor has it that Gabe and his girlfriend, Raquell, may have been rushed into their own engagement. Then there’s Matt Brown’s extensive struggle with alcohol abuse and his recent resolve to keep on the striaght and narrow. We hope that it’s not about the latter. Addiction is a serious ailment. Whatever it is, Tila’s callout post may end up being only the start of massive family drama. View Slideshow: Alaskan Bush People: 13 Secrets They Don’t Want You to Know
Being born into a royal family is generally a pretty sweet deal. Sure, the days of beheading some peasants while downing a few goblets of mead and gnawing on a giant turkey leg may have come to an end, but you still get that whole unfathomable wealth and privilege thing. That said, there’s a hierarchy within every royal family and if you’re the low prince or princess on the totem pole, you may find that your day-to-day life bears a distressingly close resemblance to that of the peasants you should be beheading. Take Princess Beatrice, for example. As the daughter of Jeffrey Epstein chum and possible pedo Prince Andrew, Lady Bea hasn’t received much in the way of favorable press coverage in recent weeks. Obviously, she shouldn’t be forced to answer for the sins of her father, but she’s already a “lesser” royal, and the scandal’s not exactly working wonders for her reputation. So perhaps it’s no coincidence that Beatrice chose today to announce her engagement to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. “We are extremely happy to be able to share the news of our recent engagement,” the couple said in an official statement issued this morning. “We are both so excited to be embarking on this life adventure together and can’t wait to be married. If you’re just now hearing about the engagement, well … we guess you can take that as evidence of Bea’s status as a second- or third-tier royal. But it’s still a royal engagement , so Bea’s new bling is making headlines in the UK. Some say the announcement — and possibly the engagement itself — were carefully orchestrated in order to distract from the Epstein mess. Others say Beatrice had pettier reasons for the timing. As you may have heard Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are currently in South Africa as part of an official royal tour There’s a longstanding rumor that Beatrice is envious of all the attention that Meg receives from the media. So did she time her engagement to steal the Sussexes thunder during their big tour? Probably not, but this is the internet in 2019, so you better believe there’s a rumor to that effect! “Convenient for Beatrice to announce her engagement while Harry and Meghan are on tour. Great timing I must say,” one Meg fan tweeted today. “Remember after the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan, later on they announce the wedding of Eugenie,” echoed another. “Lol… now after Baby Archie’s first appearance they announce this upcoming wedding.” Of course, it’s possible that Beatrice got engaged because she’s in love and she shared the news right away simply because she’s excited. Unfortunately, there are two big problems with that explanation: 1. It’s boring. 2. Ya know who gets the benefit the doubt? A-list royals, baby! All others are eternally under suspicion of being clout-chasing haters! View Slideshow: Meghan Markle’s Deleted Instagram Revealed: Booze, Boyfriends & Bedroom Selfies!

During an interview with The Late Show ‘s Stephen Colbert late last week, the 49-year-old Empire star shared that she’s letting her wedding planner figure out everything, and to make things as simple and fun as possible, she and Kelvin are opting out of having bridesmaids and groomsmen on their big day.

Amy Roloff no longer needs to contain her excitement. The secret is out. The celebration can begin! And so can the beautiful ring flaunting… On Friday evening, hours after Amy and Chris Marek confirmed their engagement , the Little People, Big World posted her own announcement on Instagram — along with a brand new photo. Of her smiling face. And her gorgeous, shiny piece of bling. :Guess what! I wanted to share with you- I’m engaged!” wrote a very excited Amy, adding on her official account: “I was so surprised when Chris asked me to marry him. I said YES. I couldn’t be happier and so looking forward to this new part of our life journey together. “I’m blessed. Love you Chris. I love us.” Amy and Chris have been dating for nearly three years. The long-time reality star was previously married to Matt Roloff, with whom she still works and often interacts, for about 27 years welcoming four amazing kids into the world together. Said Amy to People Magazine prior to sharing the huge engagement news on social media herself: I’m excited, I’m so surprised, I’m thrilled! I never in a million years thought I’d be getting married again, but I also hoped for it! Now that it’s happening, I couldn’t be happier or more excited. Amy turned 55 on September 17 and Chris proposed a day later, as a belated and very special birthday gift. Rarely one to speak to the media, he also got a few words in with People, telling the publication yesterday: “I was very nervous! It had to be a heart shaped diamond because I knew that’s what Amy wanted.” There had been speculation for months about these two getting engaged, partly because they have been together for so long and partly because they just seem so happy together. Rarely do a few days go by without Amy posting some image online of her and Marek smiling up a storm together. Just about a month ago, we heard rumors of Roloff pushing Marek to propose , but it doesn’t sound like there was any real pressure placed on him here. He simply found the woman of his dreams and figured it was about time to pop the question. This news merely adds to what ought to be a VERY exciting next several months for this famous family: Tori Roloff is expecting a girl in November. Audrey Roloff is expecting a boy in January. And now a wedding will take place at some point in the near future as well. No public word yet from any other Roloff on this engagement, but allow us to jump in and simply say the following: CONGRATULATIONS!

Well, that didn’t take long. Just weeks after she caught Javi Marroquin cheating on her in her own home, Lauren Comeau seems ready to forgive and forget. Earlier this month, we reported that Lauren had moved back in with Javi . (Understandably, she retreated to her home state of Maine after catching her fiance banging one of his CrossFit students in their bathroom.) Now, the couple has taken another step toward reconciliation by making their relationship Instagram official. Javi posted the pic below on Instagram this week. At first glance, it may seem to be nothing more than a precious moment featuring his 1-year-old son witn Lauren. But on closer inspection, you’ll notice that those are Lauren’s hands helping little Eli with his first steps. Javi captioned the pic, “Cherish these moments.” Clearly, he believes there are some moments in life during which relationship strife and other stressors must be set aside so that one can be fully present in the moment. Javi probably takes a similar view of illicit bathroom assignations, but that’s a conversation for another time. Anyway, as much as Teen Mom 2 fans might have preferred that Javi finally be held accountable for his actions, it seems he’s been let off the hook yet again. “Lauren is back home,” a source confirmed to Radar. “They are trying to work on things.” Judging by her Instrgam page, it seems that Lauren has been back in Dover for at least two weeks, meaning she was very quick to give Javi a second chance. However, many fans have pointed out that she’s still not wearing her engagement ring, as evidenced by the photo above. Obviously, this is not the first time that Marroquin has been unfaithful. He allegedly cheated on Kailyn Lowry numerous times during their brief marriage. And yet, the father of two keeps worming his way back into the good graces of the women in his life. How is this possible? Well, it seems the phenomenon is at least partially due to the fact that Javi has mastered the art of the schmaltzy, melodramatic apology. “Lauren, I’m sorry for my mistakes, I’m sorry I broke your heart, I’m sorry I disrespected you,” he wrote in an open letter posted to his Instagram page shortly after his latest cheating scandal went public. “I’m sorry I took you for granted. I could say sorry for a million other things but I’m sorry will never be enough,” Marroquin continued. “I will do everything in my power to become a better man and hopefully one day you can forgive me,” he added. “I’ll do anything to have you home.” Some would argue that he should have worked on that “becoming a better man” business after the last time he got caught cheating, but we digress. Elsewhere in the letter, Javi turned his attention to his two young sons: “I failed you as a father and failed at my attempt to show you both what it is to be a man,” he wrote. “I promise you both my actions will not reflect on how you will treat women, let alone the one you love.” It may not seem like Javi has been the greatest role model to his sons, but he may be useful as an example of what not to do: Don’t cheat on your fiance; don’t make private matters public, and — most importantly — never get into CrossFit. It’s basically Scientology for fitness bros.

Source: Getty Images Chris Bukowski And Katie Morton Get Engaged In Paradise The season 6 finale of Bachelor In Paradise ended in 3 engagements, one of which was between Chris Bukowski and Katie Morton. Throughout the season, even though it seemed like these two were both really into one another, there was definitely some uncertainty on Chris’ part about whether or not he was serious about continuing their relationship after the show ends. And who can blame him? This season was Chris’ sixth (yes, sixth) time trying to find love in the Bachelor franchise, and he previously “retired” before coming back to this season of Bachelor in Paradise . But in the end, Bukowski realized that he was with the girl he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. Once the reunion came around, though, Katie’s engagement ring was nowhere in sight and things seemed to be rocky between the couple. Morton said she watched the show back and thought she would see how much Chris loved her throughout the episodes, but didn’t. She admitted that she feels insecure in her relationship, and after talking it out, Chris handed her her ring, she put it back on, and they kissed. This ending was pretty up in the air for fans who followed the couple all season long, but luckily for us, Chris and Katie posted to Instagram to let us know things are all good between them. Though neither of them have said whether or not marriage is anytime in the near future, their life as a couple seems to be better than ever after going through a rough patch. View this post on Instagram Love is tough. Love is beautiful. Most importantly love is patient. Sometimes you need a shock to the system to put a fire under your ass. What I felt then I feel even more now. I love you @katieemo and can’t wait to feed you pizza for the rest of our lives. #BachelorInParadise A post shared by Chris Bukowski (@chrisjbukowski) on Sep 17, 2019 at 8:03pm PDT While Chris keeps his post light-hearted, telling Katie he can’t wait to feed her pizza for the rest of their lives, she goes on to stress how much hard work has gone into their relationship and that the future isn’t promised. Cryptic. View this post on Instagram As you’ve seen..It’s been the furthest from easy. From the decision to take the leap onto the beach, navigating what was real and staying true to myself, and my world that spun out afterward. None of it has been a walk in the park. BUT I’ve learned, a lot. I’ve learned to be more direct, how to challenge myself and others, I’ve learned that I’m empathetic to a fault, that love languages are so important to understanding others, that self sabotage can be found in many forms, and BOY have I learned what patience looks like. But most of all, I’ve learned that happiness isn’t something to look for in your partner. Your partner can make you laugh but your partner is not responsible for your happiness. Happiness is found within and sharing that with each other is what lights up a room! Communication is the link to everything, which is something we sure did LACK in paradise and shortly after. It took us a few months to really get our bearings (especially with some exceptional and unexpected challenges). I know none of you will truly understand why things are the way they are but I ask that you trust me and support me as I navigate this new world of mine. Because I’m happy with me and we are finally happy with us. We have grown so much in our friendship and now in our relationship since that day. Like I said to both of our parents and I will say to you- I can’t promise you this relationship will be perfect (it won’t be/ it isn’t) and I can’t promise we will last forever. Honestly, some relationships don’t last after 20 years and some do, that’s life. But what I can promise you is that I take this seriously, won’t lose myself, I will always try my best, I will always keep it real, and we will have each other’s backs. Thank you for following us through this journey of hope, faith, all of the next phases of life and more importantly – love cheers to an effing INSANE adventure A post shared by KATIE MORTON (@katieemo) on Sep 17, 2019 at 8:10pm PDT Moral of the story: they’re working on things. Congrats to Chris and Katie on their engagement!

The beauty looked gorgeous in a Tiffany blue dress by House of CB. Her makeup was done by Saisha Beecham, who gave the beauty a smokey eye and a nude lip. However, we couldn’t get over her pompadour, braided bunched ponytail completed by celebrity hairstylist Tym Wallace ! View this post on Instagram Today with @iamnialong for the premier of @47metersdown makeup by @saishabeecham #tossedbytym thank you so much @hairareus for coming thru so short notice @nealstonge styling A post shared by tym (TIM) wallace (@tymwallacehair) on Aug 13, 2019 at 7:39pm PDT We spoke exclusively with Wallace, who shared the inspiration for the look. “I was inspired by her dress. It had such a 90s feel. With the eye-catching color and very deep plunging neckline. I knew we needed a chic ponytail to compliment the entire dress. And add the makeup – Nia Long – WOW…ageless beauty.” Source: Gregg DeGuire / Getty Ponytails and braids have been trending on the red carpet for celebrities this season. Wallace shares, “I am always a fan of the ponytail. Ponytails are forever classic.” Nia Long’s ponytail has more of an edge, “We are giving ponytails a modern twist. For Nia’s look, we went for a punk modern ponytail paying homage to #BlackGirlMagic with some swooped edges.” Well, you’ve snatched our edges with this look! Want to recreate the look? Here are the steps and the exact products that Wallace used. The first step was making sure the hair is clean. Wallace used Mizani Thermasmooth Shampoo ($16.00, ulta.com ) and Thermasmooth Conditioner ($18.00, ulta.com ). Afterward he applied Mizani’s 25 Miracle Leave In Milk ($19.88, walmart.com ) and “then blow dried the hair into sections.” The next step is to “press the hair to make it super sleek.” He left out a section for the pompadour braid. “Next, I moothed the hair up in a ponytail using ORIBE Original Pomade ($34.99, express.google.com ) and Bed Head Hard Head Hairspray ($10.39, amazon.com ), then formed the hair with the blow dryer to lock on the ponytail.” To give Nia Long’s hair additional length, he added Hair Are Us 24 Inch Hair ($100.00, hairareus.com ) around the ponytail for “extra length cut layers.” He then added some waves and brushed it out and created slight puff balls, then added the braided pompadour.
