Thomas Ravenel SLAMMED for Taunting Kathryn Dennis Over Mother’s Death

Last week, Southern Charm star Kathryn Dennis tragically lost her mother at a shockingly young age. She is in mourning. Her disgraced ex Thomas Ravenel appears to be trying to use this incident to be pointlessly cruel. Fans accuse him of trying to use social media to make Kathryn’s grief even worse. The backlash against him was swift and severe. On Sunday, August 11, Thomas Ravenel took to Twitter to share what would ordinarily be a precious photograph. “The kids with my mom,” he captioned the image. The now-deleted tweet showed 3-year-old Saint and 5-year-old Kensie alongside Thomas’ mother, Louise Rodgers. The context that turns this sweet post sour is that Thomas posted it just days after Kathryn Dennis’ mother died. Months of social media inactivity and then this? Fans aren’t buying it as an innocuous tweet. This is a mind game. Longtime Southern Charm fans were absolutely furious — and let Thomas know. “You haven’t posted since June 1,” noted a reply. “And you choose the week that your babies lost their maternal grandmother to post your kids with your mom!” “How about adding some condolences to your kids,” that same tweet suggested. “They lost a loved one too. So insensitive.” “This post is in very poor taste, with its timing,” accused another tweet. That user continued: “Nothing against your mother. But it just an obvious mind game. We all see this. Find some class and Stop!” “Really?” exclaimed another Twitter denizen. “Timing is everything. You suck more every day.” “Cute picture,” another wrote gently. “But the timing is a little off considering Kathryn’s Mother’s recent passing.” It was very kind of that person to give Thomas the benefit of the doubt, as if it were some sort of oversight. “You are an asshat for posting this knowing what you know of Kathryns Mother,” another accused. That same tweet continued: “Cannot wait for you to be locked up where you belong. ” That, of course, refers to Thomas’ upcoming rape trial . “No post since early June, then this?” remarked another tweet. “Hmmm.” “You actually have no power to stop your compulsive behavior do you?” accused another. That same tweeter continued: “Posting this is one of the most classless, distasteful acts you have done.” “Congrats on topping you own record,” the reply concluded. If you’re thinking that Thomas responded to this with a tasteful apology about how insensitive he was … you know we’re talking about Thomas Ravenel, right? The backlash was so intense that he deleted his Twitter and his Instagram. To countless people, it really did look like he was trying to rub it in Kathryn’s face that his mother was still alive. He may have also been trying to convey the idea that his mother is the only “grandmother” that Kensie and Saint will clearly remember. Allison Calhoun Dennis passed away on Wednesday, August 7 after a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer. She was only 59 years old. No one should be exploiting this tragedy for mind games.

Kailyn Lowry Speaks Out Against Teen Mom 2: It’s Bad For Our Kids!

At one time or another, just about every star in the Teen Mom universe has publicly griped about the demands of the show. Whether it’s the haters, the editing, or the never-ending feuds among co-stars, it seems the six-figure gig isn’t as cushy as many fans seem to believe. Prior to being fired from Teen Mom OG , Farrah Abraham probably did the most complaining.’ She was closely followed by Jenelle Evans, who was later axed from Teen Mom 2. (Though it’s worth noting that Jenelle’s firing had less to do with her complaints and more to do with allowing her husband to murder the family dog .) But none of those cases have prevented Kailyn Lowry from speaking her mind about the unique challenges faced by young moms in the spotlight. To be fair, Kail’s comments are not complaints so much as observations about her complicated relationship with the show. After all, she couldn’t really pursue secondary careers as a podcaster and memoirist if she weren’t willing to be totally honest and candid with her fans. No one wants to buy an autobiography that’s really just a thinly-veiled 300-page advertisement for MTV. In keeping with her long history of being real with fans, Kail spoke her truth in a recent interview with Hollywood Life . Asked about the ongoing issue of the annual reunion show taping, Kail revealed that she took a stand by refusing to bring her children with her to the marathon filming sessions. “I started refusing to bring the kids because of all the drama and I think the other cast members felt the same way or they had the same reservations around the same time,” she told the outlet. Yes, Kail is essentially Teen Mom 2 ‘s de facto labor leader, winning new rights for the other moms and setting an example as to how they should interact with their bosses. “And it was just a huge, as far as the reunion segments go, they were long days,” she added. “We were all in the studio with the kids for like 12 hours. So it just didn’t make sense to have us all there and do it that way. So I started saying, ‘Well, I’m not bringing my kids.’” Of course, Kail says she might be inclined to think of the situation differently now that circumstances have changed (read: Jenelle Evans got fired ). “Well, now that we’ve done it a little bit differently I would like to film a reunion segment with my kids so I don’t know, we’ll see about this year,” she told Hollywood Life . Some fans have suggested that Kail’s decision might be a bit of a bummer for the kids of TM2. After all, the reunions were one of the only times they all got to see one another — and it’s not like the kids at school can relate to their situation. But Kail insists that’s a non-issue as there was very little interaction among the offspring at the tapings. “The kids don’t see each other — they don’t remember each other,” she said. Besides, at least Kail’s kids can still hang with Leah’s during the increasingly frequent Lowry-Messer joint family vacations ! View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry: I’m “Back Together” with Chris Lopez!

So….Twenty88 Part 2, Or Nah? Big Sean Publicly Gushes Over His “Single Again” Singing Partner Jhené Aiko

Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN Big Sean Sparks Reconciliation Rumors With Tweet To Jhené Aiko Big Sean ….what’s good. Are you really “Single Again,” or nah?! Earlier this week, Sean dropped his first song in what seems like forever. Seemingly confirming his widely-rumored about break-up with Jhené Aiko , the track was titled, “Single Again.” Just to make things more confusing, his ex-boo thang was featured on the single with him. Who hits up their ex to be on a song about how they’re back on the prowl? While their little duet had people raising some eyebrows, the title of the song was enough confirmation that their seemingly turbulent relationship was over for good. But now, Big Sean is adding more fuel to the fire that there might still be some serious feelings there. Jhené tweeted out a link to “Single Again” after it was released earlier this weekend. The next night, Big Sean decided to write a public thank you to Aiko for getting on the song. “I appreciate you supporting me on this one and I want to just say I love you unconditionally,” the rapper wrote. “People gon say whatever but it is what it is. I could have txt u this I know but I want people to know I appreciate you.” . @JheneAiko I appreciate you supporting me on this one and I want to just say I love you unconditionally. You amazing, talented, every song we do special to me! People gon say whatever but it is what it is. I could have txt u this I know but I want people to know I appreciate you — Sean Don (@BigSean) July 29, 2019 Ahhh, public displays of affection. Much like the one Jhené sent Sean’s way in his comment section a couple months ago. Either they’re the most mature people on the planet, or there’s still some real feelings there. Whether or not these two are trying to work things out or they’re just staying good friends, we’ll probably never know. But either way, they’ve got people talking. And beside fans wanting them to just make up and get back together, we’re greedy, and we want some more music, too. CAN YALL JUST BE TOGETHER — fuck bella. (@marieeeyat) July 29, 2019 give us Twenty88 pt 2 pic.twitter.com/gYQkC4Pk1B — Eric Jonathan (@EriccJonathan) July 29, 2019 pic.twitter.com/AfCqu3ceRd — internet personality (@uknowjacko) July 29, 2019   Release Twenty88 Part 2 pic.twitter.com/aWKP1lQkiz — Born Sinner (reborn) (@Antwheels__) July 29, 2019 So whether they’re just friends or something more…..can we get some more music?

Amber Portwood: Is She Working on Becoming a Less Terrible Person?

Amber Portwood … It’s just not a great situation right now, everything that’s been going on with her. Is that the understatement of the year? Yeah, maybe. And sure, it would be nice to just leave it at that, to not go into the details of Amber’s latest crimes. But to talk about where she’s going, we have to talk about where she’s been, don’t we? So let’s just go ahead and recap Amber’s tale of machete madness one more time. Back on the fourth of July, Amber and her boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, reportedly got into an argument over some fireworks —there was some traffic and road work, so they weren’t able to get where they needed to be to see them. It sounds like such a non-issue — just go a different way, or see different fireworks, whatever — but it seemed to have set Amber off in a big way. He dropped her off at home and went back out with their one-year-old, James, to figure out the situation with the dumb fireworks, and when he did, he went back home. That’s when Amber allegedly began beating him with a shoe while he was holding James. They left again, leaving Amber at home, and drove around for around three hours before Andrew picked up some food and a present and tried going home again. She was still agitated, enough that, according to Andrew’s statement, she took a handful of pills and told him she was going to kill herself. But wait, it gets crazier. She ended up throwing up the pills, but later she picked up a machete and went after him while he was holding the baby. He went to another room and locked the door, but she hit the door with the machete and tried to kick it down — that’s when he finally reached out to 911 and officers came to arrest her . Amber was charged with three felonies, and she was only just able to see James in a supervised visit . Andrew has filed for full custody, and he definitely seems done with their relationship. It’s an awful story, and it could get a lot worse — there’s a real chance she could go back to prison for this. So what is she doing in the meantime? Oh, you know, just chillin’ with some corn. Amber has remained pretty quiet on social media after her arrest — besides posting about being “heartbroken” by reports that Andrew is already talking to another woman , she’s been totally silent. But this weekend, she’s been easing back into things, first by posting a photo of some good ol’ Indiana corn fields. She then posted a video of some corn up close, and captioned it “Relaxation in the beautiful country.” Last night, she posted a selfie, her first since the incident, and although it’s pretty dark, we can only assume that she’s once again out in the corn fields. “Nighttime meditation and relaxation with music and nature,” she captioned that picture. With all these posts about relaxation and meditation, it’s pretty clear what she’s doing, right? She wants us all to believe that she’s thinking about things, that she’s trying to grow and reflect and be a better person. She’s got her comments turned off on Instagram, but she’s set her posts there to go to Twitter, and Twitter has some things to say about all of this. “Get help and stop abusing men,” one of her followers suggested. Another pointed out “If you are abusing men in front of your children, you are abusing your children. It’s so sick.” One particularly blunt person commented “You need to check yourself into an inpatient clinic. Then you need to actually do the work. You’re a terrible human being, but with intense treatment & the right medication, you might make into the ‘not so bad’ category.” But, believe it or not, the positive, supportive comments far outweigh the critical ones — so many people have told her things like “this too shall pass” and “stay strong!” And that is absolutely insane. Amber is a violent person. We know this, and we’ve seen it many times. We saw her assault Gary more than once back in the day on Teen Mom, and of course there was that reunion where she tried to hit Farrah . In her time with Matt Baier, we heard reports as well as statements from both of them that led many to believe that they may have been violent with each other. And now there’s all this new stuff with Andrew — and remember, while she denied the machete part, she did admit to beating him with the shoe. She is mentally ill, and she’s been very open about how much she struggles with her illnesses, and we definitely believe her, but the fact is that mental illness is just not an excuse for behaving like this. Many people with Amber’s same diagnosis manage to go through life without hurting the people close to them like this, and honestly, it’s pretty bizarre that so many people are defending her right now. Do you believe she’s actually working on herself? View Slideshow: Amber Portwood: What’s the Evidence Against Her?

Amber Portwood’s Brother Speaks Out: She’s Been FRAMED By Andrew Glennon!

As you’ve likely heard by now, Amber Portwood is in a considerable amount of trouble. The troubled Teen Mom OG star stands accused of assaulting boyfriend Andrew Glennon while he was holding the couple’s 1-year-old baby. Glennon claims Portwood threw a shoe at his head, ran after him with a machete, and attempted to break down a door after he locked himself in a bedroom with baby James. Obviously, this is not the first time that Amber has been arrested on assault charges, and most folks who are familiar with her explosive temper have little doubt as to the veracity of Andrew’s claims. But despite the fact that she very likely engaged in some truly monstrous behavior, Amber has quite a few supporters. At her first court hearing on Thursday, Amber was joined by several of her co-stars, including Maci Bookout, Catelynn Lowell, and Cheyenne Floyd. Lowell has taken flak for her support of Amber , but neither she nor the other Moms have shown any indication of backing down from their position. But for all their loyalty, the stars of TMOG will never have the title of Amber’s Biggest Supporter. No, that title goes to Amber’s brother, Shawn Portwood — aka Bubby — a man whose ultra-close relationship with his sister has often been described by fans as creepy, inappropriate — and just flat-out icky. Shawn spoke with The Ashley’s Reality Roundup this week, and not surprisingly, it seems he’s 100 percent in Amber’s corner: “This whole thing is a setup and it has been from the beginning, the more I read about what’s going on,” Shawn told The Ashley. “It’s amazing that [Andrew’s]trying to get her to pay for literally everything so that he doesn’t have to pay for anything. “[He’s] fighting for full custody [and] he’s trying to get her to pay for his insurance.” Seems like an odd motive, considering Glennon comes from money and enjoyed a lucrative career as a TV producer before he met Amber. But Shawn is going all-in on the “Andrews as gold digger” narrative: “[Andrew’s] trying to get her to pay child support,” Shawn continued. “He’s trying to get her to pay for everything and make it to where the only thing he has to do is literally just look after the boy. It is not fair and she doesn’t deserve what’s happening to her.” Shawn went on to claim that Andrew repeatedly lied to Amber over the course of their relationship: “Apparently he said he had a lot of things that Amber recently come to find out it weren’t true,” he said. In recent weeks, Amber has accused Andrew of cheating on her, but it seems Shawn is suggesting there’s even more going on than just the infidelity. Whatever the case, we’re sure to find out a whole lot more about Portwood and Glennon’s relationship as their custody battle unfolds in the weeks to come.  And in case you’re wondering — yes, the legal drama is being filmed for Teen Mom: OG .

Lisa Vanderpump’s Husband Just DESTROYED All the Real Housewives

They may be known as The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills … …  but not to Ken Todd. To Ken Todd, the long-time husband of veteran reality star Lisa Vanderpump, they should really be known as The Real Backstabbers Who Totally Suck of Beverly Hills. On the occasion of his very own birthday this past Sunday, Todd took to Twitter and absolutely blasted each and every one of his wife’s co-stars. Or former co-stars, we should now write, considering Vanderpump left the Bravo franchise this month after nine memorable seasons. “Yes, it’s my birthday and normally positive things happen on this day! So I would like to get some things off my chest,” Ken opened his viral rant, continuing as follows: “It’s a year next month that all the negativity against my wife started. I know I am not the most eloquent writer — I see and speak in simple terms. “This year, there has been a huge amount of nastiness that has pushed my wife to the brink. When, at a time in her life like this, she needed her friends!” The past several months really have been challenging for Vanderpump. Her brother, Mark, died from a drug overdose last spring — and, while grieving personally, Lisa has since butted heads with several of her castmates, including Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Teddi Mellencamp and Erika Jayne. Perhaps most notably, Vanderpump was at the center of PuppyGate, an actual scandal in which Dorit Kemsley adopted a pet from Vanderpump Dogs… alleged that it nipped at her kids… and then returned it to a shelter, instead of two Lisa’s aforementioned organization. From there, Vanderpump was accused of leaking a story about Kemsley’s dog to the press, an act she has since denied. She even took a lie detector on air to prove her innocence . Added Todd in his diatribe yesterday: “What really irks me is the hypocrisy of this whole matter. “The very PUBLIC issues — lawsuits, over 50 million dollars of them, loans in default, rehab, business misdoings, bankruptcies — have all been swept under the carpet. “Lifestyles paid for with other people’s money, I call bullsh-t!” Todd did not cite any Bravo personalities by name in his message. However, the only time anyone’s financial matters were brought up during shooting was on the second-to-last episode of this season, where Camille Grammer accused Kemsley and her husband of owing a friend of hers $1 million. Grammer also wondered how Kemsley could afford all of her expensive cars and clothes given her alleged knowledge that PK is bankrupt. Again, Todd does not mention this incident in particular. But he does touch on PuppyGate , specifically to how Lisa and her team helped pass House Resolution 401, which calls for an end to the dog and cat meat industry. “It disgusts me that the very fact that a resolution passed through Congress, in an attempt to save thousands of dogs worldwide, was brushed aside — years of our work was ignored as all the focus was on just one dog (that is now in a happy home, not biting, pecking or whatever you choose to call it). “I am not asking for anything now, not even 5 grand owed to our dog charity. But I am asking for this hatred to stop! I didn’t want my wife to go to the reunion as it has been bullying. “Yes, I used that word, bullying, because that is what this nonstop attack has been.” The $5,000 Ken mentions here is the fee Vanderpump Dogs charges people whose adopted puppies end up anywhere other than at their rescue center. It was a fee Vanderpump and Todd initially waived when they found out Dorit’s puppy, Lucy Lucy Apple Juice, ended up at what they claim was a high-kill shelter in Orange County as part of PuppyGate. “It sickened me to see my wife in tears and I am proud of her even doing the Angel Food when she has been so down,” Ken added in regard to LVP’s weekend appearance at a Project Angel Food charity event. He then went into the allegation Grammer made during the season and then accused Kyle Richards of saying off camera — that Vanderpump has “bad breath.” Seriously, dude went deep in this rant. “To now attack her personal hygiene disgusts me, I could put it out here that my wife’s breath is as sweet as she is, as I am the one who kisses her daily I should know,” Ken wrote. “I am so angry as it is a vile lie…like so many other things that have been said about her. “Attacking our [kids’] businesses, Vanderpump Rosé, which we have all worked hard on is just mean spirited! It’s in some of the best restaurants in the world.” In conclusion? “Their pettiness says everything. There are so many things WE could’ve said but haven’t… ‘So it’s not just Goodbye Kyle that I want to say…it’s goodbye to all of the vicious nastiness…there I feel much better now. Happy birthday to me.” Wow. Well… okay then, huh? Part 2 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion airs Tuesday, July 23 at 9/8c. on Bravo.

Carole Radziwill: No One Actually Wanted to Film With Tinsley Mortimer!

The Real Housewives of New York City alum Carole Radziwill has had some sassy remarks about her former show . Now she has some much more serious reflections on a failed friendship with Bethenny. Carole also mentions that she only spent time with Tinsley when the producers needed her to. Ouch . This week, Carole Radziwill appeared on The Jenny McCarthy Show to speak to the noted plague enthusiast about her experience on RHONY . And Tinsley Mortimer has had more flattering descriptions of her made. “Tinsley and I weren’t really clicking,” Carole Radziwille admits. “We were on the show together,” she notes, but “no one wanted to film with her that much.” “I had fixed her up with this guy I knew,” Carole says, referring to Scott Kluth. “So it was an easy way to do scenes together.” “We filmed a lot together,” Carole recalls. “But a lot of it was, ‘Oh you’re going to stay in Tinsley’s room’ when the producer would divvy up rooms.” In other words, they shared a lot of screen time, but did not do so very organically. “I was like ‘Okay, but that’s not really what I would do,” she admits. Carole clarifies: “I would normally go to the Hamptons and stay at Bethenny’s house,’” “‘This is weird that I’m staying at Tinsley’s.’ So a lot of that,” she explains. “And Bethenny knew that.” “After filming, I never spoke with Tinsley,” Carole reveals. “And,” she continues. “I haven’t seen or talked to her in a year or two years,” “We weren’t clicking,” Carole explains, despite any appearances to the contrary. She adds: “That was one of those story lines.” It’s not at all uncommong for reality TV producers to put two characters in proximity to each other, even if they wouldn’t normally spend that time together. Honeslty, this is The Real Housewives — most groups of neighbors don’t go on annual vacations without their families, either. ““I was a very good friend to [Bethenny],” Carole says. “That’s all I’m going to say.” “I supported her in her charities, I gave her a lot of money…I really cared about her,” she details. Carole expresses: “I was just being a really good friend to her.” Seeing their falling out after just a few months spent apart was … difficult. Sometimes, strong personalities do not react well to a little distance. As for the postmortum view of her erstwhile friendship with Bethenny Frankel, Carole has some thoughts. “I think I was trying to establish some boundaries at the end,” Carole expresses. “And sometimes,” she laments. “People don’t do well with that.” “I just wanted … it was just a little too much Bethenny and not enough Carole in that relationship,” Carole assesses. “But,” she emphasizes. “I didn’t blow that friendship up.” Analyzing how a friendship came to an end can be nothing short of agonizing — even when so much of that played out on television. But we have to say that we’re not sure how Tinsley Mortimer may be feeling right now. Carole’s dryest assessment is that what looked like a friendship between them was just a storyline … and that nobody actually liked her. Carole isn’t saying that to be mean. That’s just her assessment of the situation.
