Kenneth Petty and Nicki Minaj May Actually Get Married

According to a new report, not only is Nicki Minaj cool with dating a registered sex offender… … she may be cool with spending the rest of her life with him. Insiders tell TMZ that Minaj and Kenneth Petty have been talking about marriage and kids and settling down together for good, despite having only been a romantic item for a few months. Minaj is taking this relatively new relationship very seriously, believing that Petty is a good and decent man. This belief belies his past, of course. The artist has come under extreme fire ever since going Instagram public with Petty this past Sunday because he was convicted of attempted rape back in 1995. Petty spent four years in prison for this act, which reportedly centered on him using a sharp object to try and force a woman to have sex with him. Then, in 2006, Petty was convicted on a charge of manslaughter and spent seven more years behind bars. It’s unclear just what transpired that led to this second jail stint, but Minaj has already stood up for her man admist heavy criticism leveled at him due to the first. After many followers called Nicki out for being with someone such as Petty, Minaj responded on social media by claiming that he was 15 years old and the alleged victim was 16. She said the two were in a “relationship,” impyling that Petty did nothing wrong. “But go awf, Internet. Y’all can’t run my life. Y’all can’t even run y’all own life. Thank you boo,” Nicki added. Minaj has known Petty for nearly 20 years. She briefly dated him way back in the day as a teenager and has supposedly told many people within her circle that he’s one of the few who got away. He was one of her first loves. This may help explain why Minaj can so easily look past some of Petty’s misdeeds, as heinous as they objectively may be. “As for that whole convicted sex offender thing — among other crimes — we’re told Nicki couldn’t care less,” TMZ says. Minaj, it should also be noted, has a history of defending those accused* of sexual assault (*Although, again, Petty has not merely been accused. He has been convicted of attempted rape.) The singer’s brother, Jelani Maraj, was found guilty in November 2017 of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old girl. She has also not been shy in expressing support for ridiculously-named and tattooed rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, who was sentenced to probation in October for his involvement in a sexually explicit video of a 13-year-old girl. Gross stuff all around. For shame, Nicki.

Meghan Markle vs. Kate Middleton: The Cause of Their Feud Revealed?

For weeks now, rumors of a feud between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have been dominating tabloid headlines, and it doesn’t look like that’s likely to change anytime soon. Usually, narratives like this one are easy to dismiss, but this time, there’s real reason to believe the reports of royal discord are accurate. In fact, the situation is so dire that in an unprecedented move,  Kensington Palace issued a statement on the feud . And is if that weren’t confirmation enough, Harry and Meghan are now moving out of Kensington and into new digs on the Queen’s Windsor Estate. Royal sources have also confirmed that Harry and Meghan will not be spending Christmas with William and Kate , as is customary. So what happened? How did this all start? Getting along is not only a familial obligation for these four, it’s a huge part of their professional duty. There are numerous theories about what drove Kate and Meghan apart (sources seem to concur that they began feuding and then William and Harry followed suit). But if you stick with the most reliable sources and the most believable claims, the timeline of this epic battle goes something like this: According to The Daily Mail , last Christmas, Prince Charles became aware that Kate and Meg were not exactly besties. He arranged a peace summit at Will and Kate’s country estate at Anmer Hall — but things didn’t quite go according to plan. A source tells the Mail that William “voiced his concerns” about Meghan’s suitability as a royal mate, which led to a “ghastly row.” The situation was tense, but the couples were reportedly able to put their hostilities aside in time for Harry and Meghan’s wedding in May. But according to London tabloid The Sun , Meg and Kate locked horns during the planning process, as Kate was openly unhappy with the dresses Meghan had picked out for her and Princess Charlotte to wear. Apparently, there was yet another argument, and this time Meghan allegedly took her aggression out on members of Kate’s staff. “That’s unacceptable,” Kate reportedly snapped. “They’re my staff, and I speak to them.” One insider tells The Sun that Meghan and Kate are no longer angry with one another, but they’ve learned it’s best if they simply keep their distance. “It’s a tricky situation, but it was a one-off, and they are determined to maintain a positive relationship even though they are obviously very different in their approach,” says the source. So there you have it. The good news is, it sounds like the situation has stabilized. The bad news is, there might not be any more amusing clashes for a while.

Woman Who Married 300-Year-Old Pirate Ghost Announces Split: It’s Over!

It turns out that relationships with the dearly departed are more than just  ghost sex on airplanes . Sometimes, the living and unliving break up. That is what has happened to a woman who famously married the 300-year-old ghost of a pirate. Love is officially dead. (Sorry.) Amanda Sparrow Large Teague is a 45-year-old Jack Sparrow impersonator from Northern Ireland. True to her profession, she married a centuries-old pirate ghost — by the name of Jack. The wedding took place earlier in 2018 in international waters in an effort for the marriage to be legal. Amanda invited a medium to perform the ceremony so that Jack would be able to say “yes” when prompted. It is unclear as to whether Jack became a stepfather to Amanda’s five children. However, this unlikely union has come to an end. Amanda has announced that her relationship with Jack has come to an end. “So I feel it’s time to let everyone know that my marriage is over,” Amanda revealed with a heavy heart. It’s unclear if she means a divorce, a separation, or an exorcism. “I will explain all in due course,” she promised. “But for now,” she added. “All I want to say is be VERY careful when dabbling in spirituality, it’s not something to mess with…” Amanda’s romance with Jack began long before her marriage to him. She said that, in 2014, she was visited in bed by the spirit of a Haitian man. She later learned that the man’s name was Jack, and that he had been an 18th Century pirate. According to Amanda, Jack reported to her that he had been left at the altar. Ultimately, she says, he was executed for thievery. Over the course of six months, Amanda says, she began to develop feelings for and a relationship with Jack. She says that her relationship with Jack eventually became physical — well, in a manner of speaking. “Growing up in Ireland in my era, you were taught that if a man bedded you, he should wed you,” Amanda explained.  “I knew from my research that spiritual marriage was a thing,” she said. “So it was more me that wanted to get married than him.” “He would have been happy like most men with just sex,” Amanda reported. One could see why Jack might get cold feet about a wedding, having been left at the altar. And also because he’s a ghost. We have to wonder what Amanda means by her warning about dabbling in spirituality. Has she experienced a spiritual or religious crisis of belief, and now believes that some trickster or demon impersonated Jack? We don’t doubt that some very sincere religious organizations reached out to her to persuade her that marrying a ghost was an abomination. Or has she become concerned that Jack is taking advantage of his phantasmal nature to dock his ship at other ports, so to speak? Many people would pay for a tell-all about a woman advising other women who marry ghosts to keep an eye out for spectral infidelity. Still, Amanda once said that she hoped that, by speaking out, she’d help other women who bang ghosts feel more comfortable discussing it. View Slideshow: 18 Celebrities Who Believe in Ghosts We are, of course, not going to tell anyone what to believe about ghosts. Some people believe in ghosts, others do not, and that’s fine. For that matter, beliving in ghosts does not in any way mean that someone might believe every ghost story, particularly those involving banging the dearly departed. Skeptics may believe that Amanda simply wanted attention, or is delusional, or experienced sleep paralysis hallucinations and believed they were real. Whatever it is, it looks like it’s over — for now. We’ve seen relationships rekindle after rougher breakups than this, however.

Nicki Minaj: I’ll Date a Rapist If I Want to, Okay?!?

Kenneth Petty is a convicted sex offender. He’s also the new boyfriend of Nicki Minaj. This doesn’t seem to be a problem for the singer, but many of her supporters have responded to Minaj going public with Petty by asking one basic question… . .. WHAT THE ACTUAL F-CK, NICKI?!?!?!? On Sunday, Minaj shared two photos of Petty on her Instagram account, making their relationship both official and very controversial in the eyes of her millions of followers. Quoting Adele’s single “Hello” for some reason, Minaj captioned the snapshots as follows: Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happens?… it’s no secret… that the both of us… are running out of time. She then shut down the comments on her Instagram account after garnering incessant backlash from folks who had read up on Petty’s past. It turns out he served four years in New York state prison as a teenager after being convicted of first-degree attempted rape. According to TMZ, the charge stemmed from a 1995 incident in which Petty tried to use a sharp object to force a woman to sleep with him. Fast forward to 2006 and Petty was convincied of a manslaughter charge that led to seven more years behind bars. We all make mistakes, of course, but, ummm… would anyone really classify these incidents as “mistakes?” Yes, apparently. Minaj would do exactly that. Responding to criticism of her relationship online yesterday, Minaj initially tried to explain away Petty’s horrible actions from years ago, prior to basically telling everyone to just STFU. “He was 15, she was 16 … in a relationship,” Nicki wrote on Instagra, as you can see below. “But go awf, Internet. Y’all can’t run my life. Y’all can’t even run y’all own life. Thank you boo.” TMZ insiders say that Minaj and Petty know each other from Queens and actually dated way, way, way back in the day. Nicki was 16 at the time of their first go-around as a couple and has referred to Petty as one of her very first loves. She has been aware of Petty’s conviction for attempted rape all along and believes he’s innocent; she says the mother of Petty’s girlfriend back then didn’t approve of her daughter’s relationship and conjured up the accusation. It’s important to remember, however: Petty wasn’t simply accused. He was convicted and went to prison. Many fans have also noted that Nicki’s brother, Jelani Maraj, was found guilty in November 2017 of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old girl. And that Minaj has publicly supported rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, who was sentenced to probation in October for his involvement in a sexually explicit video of a 13-year-old girl. Talk about a toxic mix of connections, right? As one Twitter users put it: “I hate to say it, but after #NickiMinaj defended her brother (sex offender) and 6ix9ine (sex offender), I can’t honestly say I’m surprised to hear she’s now defending her new boyfriend- another sex offender. “It’s really, really sad.”
