Rachel Lindsay: I Was Ready To Quit The Bachelorette

Go here to see the original:

Rachel Lindsay revealed that she was ready to walk away at one point during this season of The Bachelorette. No one likes to a break a heart. As we’ve seen this season, Rachel has been taking it pretty hard when she needs to send a suitor home (probably because she knows what it’s like to […]

Rachel Lindsay: I Was Ready To Quit The Bachelorette

Kim Zolciak: Don’t Worry, Kash Still Loves Dogs!

It’s easy — and fun — to give Kim Zolciak a hard time, because, like most reality stars, she can be a little ridiculous. But her son Kash suffered a traumatic dog attack — just a little over a month ago. Now Kim’s shared the most heartwarming update on his progress. He’s doing so well! Keep in mind that the attack was so vicious that he had to go to the hospital  and undergo surgery. He’s going to be just fine, but still. Kim shared on Instagram that, even on his second day in the hospital, he was already happy to snuggle a service dog. And now she’s sharing photos of him on Snapchat.where he helped a stray dog that had just given birth. So, fair warning: these pics will melt even the iciest heart. Most traumatic injuries are accompanied by emotional trauma. In some cases, it’s important to learn from the experience so that you never repeat a mistake. In other cases, “learning” from your experience a little too well can keep you from enjoying life. Most of us have, at some point or another, met someone with a gripping fear of dogs. Sometimes it’s just an irrational fear, possibly brought about by — as fake as this sounds — traumatic experiences that their ancestors endured. Look, scientists are saying that phobias might be caused by that, not us. In other cases, they’re people who went through what young Kash did — they met one of the few dogs in this world that isn’t a being of absolute good. If you had a traumatic experience with the ocean, fine, you can just avoid going into the ocean again. It’s easy — we’re not in the ocean right now. Humans don’t really belong there anyway. Dogs, on the other hand, are part of our families and part of our society. Not being a dog person can kind of be a dealbreaker for a lot of future relationships. And people will totally judge you for it. Dogs are precious and being afraid of them is gonna get in your way throughout life. But just look at how well Kash is doing! There are grown-ass adults who lack his maturity, but this little boy is 100% down to snuggle each and every dog. Seriously, Kim Zolciak said that Kash kept trying to feed the stray dog his breakfast, because he is just unbearably sweet . We wish him the speediest possible recovery. We also wish that we knew more about the original incident where he was attacked. But apparently Kim’s being tight-lipped about it … well, as tight as those lips of hers can get, anyway … based on legal advice. That’s life, we guess. But at least dogs are still cute.

The Bachelorette Spoilers 2017: Final Three, Winner CONFIRMED! Who Does Rachel Choose?!

The Bachelorette is about to begin its 13th season on ABC. While we’ve yet to see a single episode, Rachel Lindsay’s epic journey for love has just concluded with a final rose ceremony in Spain. Customarily, The Bachelor spoilers have already leaked. Hands in the air if you’re surprised … hello? Anyone?! There are no hands in the air because  The Bachelorette spoilers  leaking before the season begins, let alone ends, is a foregone conclusion. It’s even more of a given than the winners of the previous season breaking up, which is really saying something given the show’s history! We apologize for the pessimism in what should be an uplifting time, but we tell it like it is, and they’re batting around .070. Just saying. Anyway, back to the lecture at hand, as Snoop would say: Starting Monday night, more than two dozen guys will arrive at the Bachelor mansion to begin their formal courtship with Chris Harrison. Er, sorry. With Rachel Lindsay. Here’s the full lineup” View Slideshow: The Bachelorette Suitors: Meet Rachel Lindsay’s Men! Soon, she will begin to pare down the field until only a few contenders are left and, eventually, a final rose recipient is selected. To the surprise of no one, Reality Steve (a.k.a. the Soothsayer of The Bachelorette spoilers) has already uncovered the scoop. As a result of his sleuthing, we can confirm who Rachel has already gone on hometown dates with, and who gets cut after that. Moreover, we can tell you who among her final three guys walks away from the finale engaged to the beautiful attorney from Dallas. Ready to find out exactly who the final four are, and whose life will be intensely scrutinized as soon as the season finale airs? The four dudes who make it to hometowns are: 1. Dean Unglert (above). He is a startup recruiter who has his mother’s initials tattooed on his chest. Will he add “RL” next?! 2. Bryan Abasolo (above). Dr. Bryan, as he is sometimes referred to, is a chiropractor who has spoken Spanish since he was a child. Talk about a cool and useful skill set. Will it be part of the whole package that lands him in the winner’s circle, or will it be … 3. Eric Bigger (above). This is a personal trainer who considers himself to be somewhat of a neat freak. We all have our neuroses. Also, he is jacked out of his mind. Like, shredded. Do you even lift?! We’re guessing he does … but seriously, is that an eight-pack!? Goodness gracious. 4. Peter Kraus (above). This is a business owner who has a fear of heights, according to his oh-so-revealing ABC biography. A quartet of worthy contenders, to be sure, so you know when it came down to the final three, Rachel had a tough decision. Which three to take on overnight dates (read: take into the Fantasy Suite for sexiness), and which one to send home alone? Dean Unglert, according to Steve, is eliminated, at this stage, but rest assured, he’ll be off to  Bachelor in Paradise. Phew. That leaves us with a final three of Eric Bigger, Peter Kraus and Bryan Abasolo, all of whom meet Lindsay’s family in Dallas. So, the million dollar question: Who will win the final rose, and become Rachel’s fiance at season’s end (if she picks one)?! Bryan Abasolo. Rachel is engaged to Bryan Abasolo. It’s still not clear who made the final two, or where the exit of the third-place finisher occurred, but Bryan wins, and proposed in Spain. As always, in Reality Steve’s own words, this is a lock. The man’s track record speaks for itself. Yes, he has been wrong before, but very rarely so, and he’ll cheerfully admit when he is. He’s simply spot-on accurate almost always. So between now and early August, when we expect the season finale will air, expect a whole lot of rumors, half-truths and misdirection. Maybe there will in fact be a mammoth twist that blows The Bachelorette spoilers above to smithereens at the last second. We just wouldn’t bet on it. View Slideshow: Rachel Lindsay: The Bachelorette Star in Photos! Granted, as those who follow this stuff religiously know, Steve initially told us Peter Kraus would take home the final rose, not Bryan. That prediction? Well, it’s now been amended . We’ll have more episodic details, spoilers and specifics about how everything plays out once they become available next week and beyond. We’ll also update this with any twists or inaccuracies that need correcting or addendums. Again, though, we don’t anticipate the former. As for whether love will last for Ms. Lindsay? We would not bet on it, that’s for darn sure. Which is not a knock on Rachel, but simply a commentary on the show and its track record.  Please, prove us wrong, Rachel and Bryan!

The Bachelorette Spoilers 2017: Final Three, Winner CONFIRMED! Who Does Rachel Choose?!

The Bachelorette: Will First Impression Rose Win Streak Continue!?

The Bachelorette’s streak of First Impression Rose winners from the premiere going on to win the show remarkably stands at … well, two. But those are the only two to do it! Will this season’s lucky fella make it a threepeat? ( The Bachelorette spoilers have a lot to say on that, but we’ll keep you in suspense.) For a time, this first rose of a new season was more like a kiss of death than a harbinger of success, as its recipients never went anywhere.  That’s changed quite a lot since 2014. Nick Viall came close, winning Andi Dorfman’s First Impression Rose in Season 10 before coming oh-so-close to winning the finale. The next season, Shawn Booth became the first recipient of the inaugural rose to capture the final one, as well, from Kaitlyn Bristowe. (Also defeating Nick on the finale.) This had never been accomplished before, someone going wire to wire like that, but last summer, recent history repeated itself. Jordan Rodgers, a consensus frontrunner throughout the journey, garnered the first and last roses on JoJo Fletcher’s season. Can Rachel Lindsay make it three in a row? Or more accurately, can Bryan Abasolo, who caught her eye on last Monday’s premiere? Booth, who remains engaged to Bristowe two summers after their on-air engagement, says he wouldn’t bet on that outcome. “The guy that got the first impression rose … I’m willing to bet a lot of money that he will not be the winner of the season,” he predicted. “Jordan [Rodgers] got the first impression rose on JoJo Fletcher’s season, I got the first impression rose the season before.” “We both went on to ‘win.’ Do you think that there’s any chance that the producers will let that happen again? There’s no way.” Really? There’s no way the show’s producers would allow Rachel Lindsay’s free will to follow through if she found love at first sight? Seems a little extreme. If you feel a connection right away, there’s probably a reason for that. It might not last … but it also might last! It’s unclear why Shawn seems to think producers wouldn’t permit this, especially for a stand-up guy like Bryan Abasolo seems to be. If this were Lucas a.k.a. Whaboom, or DeMario Jackson , that would be one thing, but Bryan could well be who Rachel Lindsay picks .   Not that he’s a lock. “I like that guy from Wisconsin … Peter,” says Booth, referring to Peter Kraus, who really stood out from the competition this week. “He was great,” added Bristowe. “That’s because they played the romantic music when he came out, so all of a sudden we’re brainwashed.” On their podcast, Kaitlyn and Shawn admit that watching their love story unfold on TV was awkward … but they love seeing other people’s! Picking and choosing this season’s contenders and pretenders and trying to predict who will win The Bachelorette like we do is just fun. Which category does Lucas fit in? “Whaboom is so happy we’re talking about him,” says Kait. “He is so happy the world is talking about him.” “I feel like that’s why he went there.” “He’s selling t-shirts,” says Booth. “I’ll buy one,” Bristowe adds. They may be onto something there. Going on reality TV for the exposure and a chance to make a living, rather than to find true love? Who would’ve guessed.

The Bachelorette Recap: DeMario-MFG No He Didn’t!

With Memorial Day kicking off the unofficial start of summer, a seasonal tradition – The Bachelorette Season 13 – is back and in full swing. (And  The Bachelorette spoilers  already tell us who wins … so don’t click the link if you don’t want to know how it all plays out). You sure as heck don’t need spoilers to tell you this much: Watch The Bachelorette Season 13 Episode 2 Online Rachel Lindsay’s journey for love will not be drama-free or eye-roll free with this collection of dudes vying for love (and screen time). Honestly, this has got to be hands down the craziest crop of guys ever assembled on the hit reality TV franchise … for better or worse.  Case in point: DeMario Jackson . The shenanigans this guy pulled – which are not over yet, after last night’s cliffhanger – may well go down as the most brazen in history. We’ll get to that shortly … but DMJ will not be who Rachel Lindsay picks this season, we’ll go ahead and spoil that for you right here. Not even Bachelor superfans Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis could save this underwhelming crew from itself, but due credit for trying. The group date task was a “husband material” obstacle course that put the guys to the test … and tested viewers’ patience, as well. One lowlight? Lucas “Whaboomed” in front of Ashton and Mila, which at least made Rachel feel so sorry for him she gave him a kiss. That strategy can’t work over the long haul, can it? In any event, the group date rose went to Dean, who also got a first kiss with Rachel. Peter Kraus then got things very much back on track with a one-on-one date in which he and his gap tooth charmed Rachel to no end. He is one to watch this season. Peter got the rose, and it’s almost a surprise he didn’t earn a whole bouquet based on how wonderful their date was from start to finish. Lindsay’s second group date Monday night was with Will, Jamey, Diggy, Alex, Adam, Lee, Matt, Eric, Josiah, and yes, DeMario Jackson. DeMario was the guy that Rachel’s friends warned her about in The Bachelorette season premiere . Oh, the foreshadowing by producers! The group date featured a cameo from Kareem Abdul Jabbar and some bad basketball, though DeMario showcased some hoop skills. Life skills are a different story, however. After the game, a girl named Lexi approached Rachel while the guys were in the locker room, revealing herself as … DeMario’s girlfriend. To hear Lexi tell it, the two were dating for about seven months until he just disappeared and stopped answering her texts and calls. She had no idea what had happened to him until she saw him meeting Rachel on The Bachelor: After the Final Rose special in March. If you recall, one of Lindsay’s many franchise firsts was that she met some of her men on the finale of Nick’s season. DeMario included. Well, Lexi was PISSED, and Rachel did her best to handle the awkward situation with class as she retrieved DeMario to explain himself. He did not do a very good job. Trapped in lie after lie, he pretended not to know Lexi at first, then called her “psycho,” then dismissed the relationship as merely sexual. Then he pretended that he had mailed Lexi’s keys and broken up with her in person, though her texts proved this was not the situation. In a cringe-worthy moment, he admitted that they had enjoyed “sexual intercourse,” but the situation isn’t as bad as it looks. Or something. He asked if they could talk off-camera because this was “some personal life stuff,” but Rachel wasn’t having that for one second. “I believe you want to be here, I just don’t think you want to be here for me,” she told him after he insisted he wanted to be there. “Let me tell you something: I’m not here to be played. I’m not here to be made a joke of, which is what I feel like you’re doing right now.” “So I’m really going to need you to get the f–k out. I don’t like being f–king embarrassed, and I can’t even look at you right now.” Dammmmmmn! Eventually, he left in shame; Josiah ultimately got the rose and Rachel did some more kisses in as the other guys expressed sympathy. The silver lining, as she noted, was that as bad as DeMario was, the other guys really stepped up afterward to prove their true intentions. In the closing moments, however, DeMario decided that he simply could not depart without having one last conversation with Rachel. Security agreed … to bring in the venerable Chris Harrison to decide if he should in fact be allowed such a privilege after his conduct. As the credits began to roll, the other guys got wind of hisreturn and rushed outside because DeMario “needs to get his ass whooped.” Now that’s a cliffhanger.

Kris Jenner: I Want My Marriage to Caitlyn Jenner Annulled!

Kris Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner were married for 22 years, but these days, it seems they’d probably both pretend the whole thing never happened. That’s easier said than done when you have two kids together, but that won’t stop Kris from trying to have her second marriage stricken from the record. Yes, according to Radar Online, Kris is fighting to have her marriage to Caitlyn annulled  on the grounds that it was based on a number of fraudulent claims made by the former Olympian at the start of their relationship. “Her lawyers think she could get an annulment, despite the fact they had two kids together,” a source tells Radar. “Kris now feels like her entire 22 years with Bruce were a lie and the law states that if the marriage happened under false pretenses or fraud it can be annulled.” The Jenners got divorced back in 2014 and their separation seemed mostly amicable until June of 2015. That’s when Caitlyn made her debut on the cover of Vanity Fair . The ensuing media blitz didn’t do any favors for Kris’ reputation, as the famed momager was made to secretive and transphobic by some of Caitlyn’s comments. The publication of Caitlyn’s memoir last month made matters worse, as the book contains accusations that Kris “forced” Caitlyn to remain in the closet . For years now, Kris and Caitlyn have been offering very different accounts of their time together. Caitlyn says Kris knew about her desire to transition from the start of their relationship. Kris says she was in the dark the entire time. Now, it seems that if Kris gets her way, Caitlyn will be forced to prove her allegations in court. It’s hard to believe, but if Kris can prove she was misled throughout the entirety of their time together, she may have a real chance at having the marriage annulled. “The evidence for Kris is all there in Caitlyn’s new book,” says one insider, adding: “Kris wants to forget the day she ever met Bruce and the only thing good that came out of it was their daughters, Kendall and Kylie.
