Momolu Stewart received help towards gaining his freedom by way of Kim Kardashian ‘s efforts and he is no doubt grateful for the assistance. In a profile on Stewart from Oxygen , Stewart, now 39, entered prison after the New Year’s Day shooting of Mark Rosebure. Stewart’s co-defendant, Kareem McCraney, was released in 2018 with both men benefiting from the Incarceration Reduction Amendment Act. While behind bars at the DC Central Detention Facility, commonly known as the D.C. Jail, Stewart became a part of the Georgetown Prison Scholars under Dr. Mark Howard, who praised Stewart’s transformation from a street tough to a man who wants to contribute to society. Stewart seemed extremely humbled by Kardashian’s assistance as evidenced by his chat with Oxygen. “She has the ability to believe in others when the conventional aspect of things would be to shun ‘em,” Stewart said. Kardashian penned a letter on Stewart’s behalf that explained his violent and troubled childhood, which included his mother killing his father when he was six-years-old thus becoming part of the street life in Washington. Stewart will be featured in the upcoming documentary Kim Kardashian West: The Justice Project which will air on the Oxygen network. — Photo: Getty

Source: Ethan Miller / Getty Drake And His Father Feud Over Upbringing If you’ve listened to any of Drake’s albums then you know he has a lot of love for his mother. He also mentions, ad nauseam, that his daddy wasn’t always around. That makes sense, right? After all, Daddy Dennis was in Memphis while Drake and his mother were in Toronto. So naturally we all assumed this was a true reflection of the former Degrassi star’s life. Dennis Graham took to Nick Cannon’s show to talk about his relationship with Drake and he had this to say: “I have always been with Drake. I said, ‘Drake why are you saying all of this different stuff about me, man? This is not cool.’ And he goes ‘Dad, it sells records.’” Well, then. Drake took to IG to say that his dad calling him cap was actually cap. Get it? Dennis wants to be famous instead of just enjoying the blessed position he is in. pic.twitter.com/OIwwhjkOBx — Nigel D. (@NigelDPresents) October 8, 2019 Who do you believe? Twitter has a LOT to say about this.

Secrets, secrets, they are no fun. They are no fun for anyone… until they come out and stir up lots of drama, that is, which is exactly what went down on This Is Us Season 4 Episode 3, “Unhinged.” On the latest installment of this NBC drama, Kate (Chrissy Metz) broke down after learning that husband Toby (Chris Sullivan) had been keeping his weight loss from her. This is how the reveal transpired: Toby settled into his IT sales job by inviting Kate to meet some of his clients at a restaurant. He then attempted to subtly get the hostess to switch their table, yet when she wouldn’t do so, Kate confessed that she could not fit into the booth. It was very awkward. Why didn’t Toby say the say thing, however? Hmmm… Watch This Is Us Season 4 Episode 3 Online Kate later ordered Toby to take off his shirt, but not in a seductive way — she wanted to see his abs for herself. He admitted that he had been going to the gym to get healthy following his heart attack, which made Kate quite emotional.

From there, her neighbor (Timothy Omundson), who was trying to rehabilitate from a stroke, caught her crying on her porch… and after he shared his story with her, she and little Jack joined him for his morning walks around the neighborhood. It’s a start, right? Elsewhere, viewers saw why Nicky (Griffin Dunne) vandalized the VA center. You see, he was making progress with a therapist when she was transferred and this caused him to relapse. Kevin (Justin Hartley) arrived in town to help Nicky avoid prison time and a gigantic fine, as the VA agreed to let Nicky continue his treatment, despite his aversion to assistance. Again: It’s a start, right? And speaking of starts… While at the facility, Kevin met Cassidy (Jennifer Morrison) and her son. Cassidy was immediately turned off by him, but she later warmed up when they wound up in the same Alcoholic Anonymous meeting. Kevin lamented his life having no purpose at all and trying to stay sober by focusing on his nephew. Cassidy laughed at his struggles, which included his fear of becoming an AARP spokesperson, prompting Kevin to eventually did the same. Sparks most definitely flew here and it’s very safe to say we’re intrigued. Also; Deja (Lyric Ross) received a surprise of her own when Malik (Asante Blackk) told her he has a daughter. She had no idea what to think about the situation and would only say that the revelation complicated her feelings for him. In other young person Pearson news, Tess (Eris Baker) battled coming out at school. Then there was our man Randall (Sterling K. Brown), who faced a few problems of his own. One of his aides pressured him to fire Jae-Won (Tim Jo) because the two were friends and he lacked experience. However, Randall let go of the aide instead for disrespecting him and then helped his chief of staff plan his proposal to his girlfriend.

Last week, we reported on the sad news of yet another tragic loss within the Duggar family. On October 2, Rebecca Waller was killed instantly when she ran a red light and was struck by two cars near her home in rural Minnesota. She was just 22 years old. Rebecca was the sister of David Waller, who is married to Anna’s sister, Priscilla. Though there were several degrees of separation and a distance of many miles between them, Anna and Rebecca reportedly enjoyed a close bond, As David wrote in his loving tribute to his departed sister , Anna’s family is an exceptionally close-knit clan. And it seems the loss of such a young life in such a senseless accident created a shockwave of grief that resonated throughout the Waller and Duggar families. This week, Anna became the latest member of her extended family to honor Rebecca’s memory on social media. She posted the above photo of her beloved relative along with a heartfelt caption: “Life is a precious gift and sometimes it seems MUCH too short,” Anna wrote. “We were heartbroken when Rebecca Waller (my brother-in-law, David Waller’s youngest sister) passed away suddenly in a tragic car accident this week.” “The memories our family made with Becca over the years will be cherished forever!” Anna continued. “She lived her 22 years of life (though so short) to the fullest. “Rebecca loved God and served others diligently, she was energetic, gave the best hugs, and was a blessing to everyone who knew her!” she concluded. The loss could not have come at a more difficult time for Anna. Currently pregnant with her sixth child , Anna has been forced to cope with two unexpected deaths in the span of just four months. Back in June, Jim Bob’s mother, Mary Duggar, passed away in a freak drowning accident. While she was also was not an immediate family member, Anna had formed a close bond with Mary in the years since she married into the Duggar clan. Needless to say, Anna’s current pregnancy has not been an easy one from an emotional standpoint. Though these recent losses may have led her to an even deeper appreciation for the time she’s able to spend with her loved ones. Our thoughts go out to all of Rebecca’s friends and family at this difficult time. View Slideshow: Anna Duggar, Fundie Fashion Queen: See How Her Look Has Evolved!
It’s not unusual for a member of The Real Housewives of Orange County franchise to spill lots of tea. But Braunwyn Windham-Burke just did something unusual in an interiew with Bravo: She spilled lots of tea… about herself! And her somewhat kinky sex life, we should add. On last week’s new episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County, we learned that Windham-Burke and her husband have been involved in at least one threesome. We know this because Windham-Burke told us. The reality star added at the time that she would “never tell those stories” from this experience… but then she was pressed yesterday on the experience by Bravo. And she told the story. For starters, the threesome took place on husband Sean’s 35th birthday. Yes, Braunwyn and Sean knew the other woman and, no, the sexual act wasn’t planned in advance… not exactly, at least. “Things had been happening. We were at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego for his 35th birthday. We rented out every bottom room,” Windham-Burke explained, adding in more detail: “We had friends from everywhere and like everyone lost their damn minds. “I’ve been with him a long time, everything we’ve done, we’ve done together. So it was sort of like, that would be fun.” Hey, some folks would agree. We’re not here to judge. Continued the Real Housewife and the Really Candid Sexual Partner: “I kinda was like, this is your birthday present. It started as a joke and then became every monumental birthday, this will be your gift. “That’s not a hard and fast rule. But Sean is crazy and you’ve met Sean, he doesn’t seem crazy at all. He’s super nice and buttoned up, but he’s super wild too.” Windham-Burke went on to say that these threesomes are always with another woman, never another man. Braunwyn also warned against ever having one with a friend, “that’s a hard and fast rule.” Sounds pretty exciting and interesting… except that Windham-Burke’s co-stars don’t actually believe this happened. Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 14 Episode 9 Online “I think they’re full of shit,” Kelly Dodd told Bravo. “I think they do that for shock value. I don’t think they’re like that because they have a really nice family home environment, I don’t think they do that.” Added Gina Kirschenheiter, also a critic: “I think it’s kinda sad actually. I think personally, I’ve thought about it a little bit. I think her husband may have cheated on her.” Wow, well… okay then! Apparently we’re going there now, huh? Tamra Judge, for her part, also came out swinging in reaction to this confession. “So she just embraces the other girl?” asked Judge. “I don’t think it’s that,” Gina replied in a video Bravo posted online. “I think she is now feeling like okay now I need to satisfy my husband … if I let that into my world and my bedroom, it keeps everybody satisfied. “I think that’s more damage control,” she added. “And her not being confident in herself and her needing attention.” This sure took a turn, didn’t it? Can’t a reality star just detail threesomes with her husband without her so-called friends calling her out for it? Sheesh! View Slideshow: 13 Scandals That Rocked The Real Housewives Franchise
