Jared Haibon Reflects on Wedding to Ashley Iaconetti, Makes All of Bachelor Nation Cry

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

WARNING: You will need a box of tissues while reading the following post. Actually, you better make it two boxes. Just to be safe. On Monday morning, just several hours after exchanging vows with Ashley Iaconetti — in front of friends, family members and loved ones in Rhode Island — Jared Haibon jumped on Instagram and gushed over his brand new wife. And we mean he GUSHED over her. “There’s so many emotions running through my body right now,” Jared wrote on Instagram alongside a photo from his wedding day. He continued in equally sentimental fashion: “I woke up yesterday morning, the day of my wedding, crying. Not from sadness, or fear. I was crying because I was so overwhelmed with happiness, excitement, gratefulness and humbleness. “Ashley is my best friend, my person, my soulmate and now my wife. I love this woman more than words will ever allow me to express.” Ashley and Jared starred together on Bachelor in Paradise Season 2 and got engaged on Bachelor in Paradise Season 5. In between, they dated on and off until Jared admits he got a “kick in the ass” by seeing Ashley in a serious relationship with someone else. At that point, in early 2018, the pair got serious and then got engaged a few months later. Added Haibon in this new Instagram message: In the coming days/weeks/months, I’ll be sharing so many pictures and videos from our wedding because it was the best day of my life. At this moment, I truly feel like the luckiest man in the world. According to various insiders and outlets, the romantic  wedding featured personal vows from both the bride and groom. Bachelor in Paradise producer Elan Gale officiated and familiar names in attendance included Nick Viall, Dean Unglert and couple Jason Tartick and Kaitlyn Bristowe. Elsewhere, American Idol’s David Cook actually perform “Ever the Same” for the couple’s first dance, just like he did at our wedding. Just kidding. This one sounds far more special than that of anyone on The Hollywood Gossip staff. “It was just a big party! The DJ played a lot of Disney songs, musical soundtracks and Backstreet Boys—the music was very Ashley,” an E! source says, adding: “There was a lot of dancing and it went pretty late but a bunch of people continued partying afterward… “Ashley was a glowing gorgeous bride. She was so happy all night. You could tell they both were so happy.” What else do we know about the big day? The bride and groom exchanged Neil Lane wedding bands — and Dunkin’ Donuts even teamed with Banga Portrait Studio to provide custom edible photo donuts as an extra-special treat. How fun!

Duane Chapman Spotted With New Mystery Woman: Who IS She?!

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Dog The Bounty Hunter viewers know that Duane ‘Dog’ Chapman was his wife’s biggest fan. His devotion was always on display as he stood by Beth through her final months, and mourned her tragic passing . So fans were understandably stunned Saturday night, when photos surfaced of Duane out to dinner with a mystery woman just weeks after Beth’s death! According to a report from The Daily Mail , Duane was spotted with the woman at an Italian Restaurant in Los Angeles Saturday night. Eyewitnesses describe the woman as a brunette bombshell, with the kind of ample curves we know Duane appreciates. The couple appeared to be on some kind of date, with both Duane and the mystery woman wearing snazzy evening attire. Duane chose a black blazer over his blue button-up shirt. The gal, meanwhile, wore a form-fitting cocktail dress with black and white chevron pattern that perfectly showed off her assets. She complimented the dress with a pair of strappy silver heels. The two reportedly laughed while enjoying a meal together, and were later picked up by the same driver. The vehicle took the couple to a gas station, where the woman and the driver picked up some supplies while Duane waited in the car.  Finally, the car took the pair back to Duane’s hotel, reports  The Daily Mail . Of course, Duane has yet to comment about the evening himself. But even without confirmation from Dog, fans are going nuts about this apparently romantic outing. Reports left many fans speculating that Duane had his sights set on this new beauty. Could this be real? How could Duane have moved on so very, very quickly after Beth’s death? Not even a month ago, Duane was so distraught he could barely make it through the speech he prepared for Beth’s memorial service . The loss of his wife brought Duane so low that some fans were worried for him. “If there’s a god, He won’t let me live that long without her,” Duane said during the service. If this is the hot date that  The Daily Mail  describes, it would be a head-spinning, Wilt Chamberlain-level rebound for the bounty hunter. However, a follow-up report from  The Blast  is defusing much of the drama. According to their updated take on the story, the apparently intimate evening was in fact a work event. The Blast claims that the woman spotted with Duane is a crew member on  Dog’s Most Wanted , part of the hair department for the show. She has reportedly been a friend of Duane and Beth for years! Furthermore, they report that at least eight other members of the cast and crew were present. That’s quite a huge detail for  The Daily Mail to omit. Did Duane and this supposed crew member leave separately from the rest of the cast? And if so, why the privacy? We know the cast and crew of  Dog’s Most Wanted are around L.A. to promote the upcoming premier, which is set to air in September. So, it makes sense for the team to get dressed up and celebrate over a nice dinner. But, even knowing all this, would it be so crazy to think a few sparks are flying? Having a long, friendly history and a working relationship doesn’t rule out the possibility of a romance. In fact, it often brings people together, especially in the wake of a tragedy. Just saying.

Amber Portwood is in Danger of Losing Her Kid and is Making Jokes About Her Cleavage

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In a new photo shared to her Instagram page, Amber Portwood is showing off her brand new digs. Along with her fairly prominent cleavage. We’re not trying to be crude or inappropriate here. We know the Teen Mom OG star is battling for custody of her son and we really shouldn’t be referencing her boobs or anything at the moment, but… … we’re just quoting Portwood herself. Over the weekend, Amber posted a photo of herself in bed, a giant smile plastered across her lips despite the many challenges in her personal life at the moment. (e.g. An arrest for felony domestic assault; the possible loss of her son to his father; the realistic chance she gets fired by MTV.) We’ve shared the snapshot above and the caption Portwood wrote alongside it below. This caption reads as follows: The joy of having a bed AGAIN!!!!! (excuse the cleavage) to go from a couch for over a month to these hotel beds literally feels like a blessing! I’m so ecstatic every time! Always sending love everyone. Such a message prompts two questions: Where had Amber been staying prior to this hotel move?t Why is she joking about her cleavage at a time such as this? We believe the answer to number-one is “her mother’s house.” And we can only say the following about the second inquiry posed right here: We have no idea. In another post shared Saturday, the 29-year-old wished her 1.8 million followers goodnight, writing: “Goodnight beautiful souls. I’m done with my nightly music routine and meditation so time for the makeup to come off!! Long day and finally tired but worth the time. “Still always sending love.” Amber did have a reason to finally be in good spirits last week. As first reported by Us Weekly, a judge decreed that she could spend more time with her young son , James, in the weeks and months ahead — but with a pretty huge catch: She still must be accompanied by a court-approved supervisor. Might this sanction be lifted the next time Portwood attends a court hearing? On August 22? It’s possible. But Andrew Glennon seems intent on pushing for primary custody of little James, concerned about the environment in which Portowod would raise the infant. Back on July 5, Portwood was arrested for allegedly throwing a shoe and Andrew and then allegedly taking a machete to the bathroom door in an attempt to get to her boyfriend and son. She was arrested in a different domestic battery charge in 2010 and ended up serving over a year in jail for a related probation violation. In this case, Andrew was so frightened by the way Portwood was acting that he told a 911 operator, via text message, that he thought she might kill him or their son or both. “I received a text message from somebody saying that their life and their son’s life is in danger,” this operator has said for the official legal record. In the month-plus since this incident, Amber has not commented directly on what  may or may not have transpired. But she’s hinted on multiple occasions that Glennon was cheating on her and even that Glennon often drove around drunk . It’s pretty clear that she’s trying to impugn Glennon’s character in an attempt to make herself look better and perhaps even justify her violent actions from last month. So far, however, it doesn’t appear as if this strategy is paying off. Most observers think Portwood needs professional help, if not another jail sentence, and most definitely should NOT be a Teen Mom cast member any longer. Do you agree?

Rain Brown: Filming This Season of Alaskan Bush People Was Almost Impossible

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Now that we’re a couple of episodes into Season 10 of Alaskan Bush People , one of the stars is opening up about the realities of filming. Starring on a reality show in the wilderness in the middle of nowhere is no joke, folks. Rain is being brutally honest about the challenges that her family has faced. Take a look: On Sunday afternoon, Rain Brown took to Instagram to remind her followers about the new episode. “Everybody! tune in to our new episode of @alaskanbushppl on discovery Channel tonight at 9!!” Rain wrote in her captions. She then elaborated on how grueling it had been to produce what fans and viewers were about to see. “This season has been very challenging,” the 16-year-old admitted. Rain explained that it was difficult “adjusting to the new life our Wolfpack has had to live.” Even with those challenges, Rain quickly made it clear that nothing would hold back the Browns. “But together we can get through anything,” the youngest of Billy and Ami’s children affirmed. “And,” she vowed, they will “come out the other side stronger as a family!” After all of the adversity that they’ve faced? We don’t doubt it. This is not the first time that Rain has opened up about the effort that went into this season. Right before this season’s premiere, Rain also took to Instagram with a message for her fans and followers. “My family crew and I have worked tirelessly to make a fun uplifting meaningful season,” Rain began. She expressed her “special thanks to the wonderful crew, beautiful family.” Rain also gave a shoutout to Noah and Rhain’s baby. “And,” the teen reality star wrote. “Mostly my nephew Eli.” This girl loves being an aunt! For all of Rain’s much-appreciated honesty, she’s still pretty vague about the challenges with which her family is grappling. But we think that we can read between the lines and explain it. For one thing, it wasn’t so long ago that the entire family was living in Alaska. Then they transplanted, not to Washington, but to a Beverly Hills mansion during Ami’s cancer battle. The plan for a time was for them to move to Colorado, but ultimately, they settled in Washington on a 435 acre property that Billy Brown purchased. Adjusting to a series of big moves like that takes time. There’s more than just moving chaos that has the 16-year-old reality star adjusting to new habits. As she mentioned, she’s now an aunt — to Noah and Rhain’s baby, Eli. It turns out that Noah was only the first to provide Billy and Ami with a grandbaby. Gabe Brown married girlfriend Raquell Rose, and it was no surprise when the couple announced that they were expecting. Rain gets along well with Raquell, but adjusting to her best friend being her sister-in-law and mother of her future niece is a big deal. Just weeks ago, Bear Brown revealed that he has a girlfriend of his own, Raiven. The two have been dating for six months and spending time on the Brown property all the while. While there were rumors that Bear’s family resented his girlfriend for being pansexual , those whispers have been quashed. It looks like Rain gets along well with Raiven, too. Another big difference has been Matt Brown’s coming and going as he worked on his sobriety. The good news is that Matt has made up with Billy and will even be allowed to film next season so long as he remains sober.

Taylor Swift: We Finally Know Why She Ended Her Friendship With Karlie Kloss

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

There was a time when Taylor Swift’s squad was almost as imposing as the singer’s massively popular body of work. Taylor didn’t just “make friends” like us mere mortals, she formed an army to fight alongside her in her most vicious battles, such as her longstanding feud with Katy Perry . But these days, Taylor has made peace with Katy , and her squad is but a distant memory. And it’s not as though Swift couldn’t use the support of her once-loyal girl army. In fact, these days she’s clashing with even bigger foes, and her dispute with Scooter Braun has left the music industry divided. Tay could use her besties now more than ever. So what happened? How did one of the most famous women on the planet find herself essentially friendless (at least in terms of other celebrities)? Well, according to a new report from Page Six, the unraveling began with the dissolution of Taylor’s friendship with Karlie Kloss. Karlie married Josh Kushner earlier this year, and Taylor was not in attendance at either of the two wedding ceremonies the couple held. Even though Taylor and Karlie were self-proclaimed best friends for years, insiders were not surprised by Swift’s absence. Now, one source claims to know exactly what took place between the former BFFs that caused them to call it quits. As is so often the case with this sort of thing, the friendship-ending beef started over something trivial. According to the informant, Karlie used to have her own room inside Taylor’s $47.7 million compound in New York City’s Tribeca neighborhood. Swift reportedly went all out to make Kloss comfortable, even going so far as to stock the room with the model’s favorite foods. But the cozy situation exploded when Karlie invited friends over without first receiving approval from Taylor. “Taylor got upset over something crazy and then she just alienated Karlie,” says the source. The insider sees parallels between the beef with Karlie and Taylor’s current spat with Braun. Apparently, in both situations, many who are close to the singer were surprised by what they felt was an over-the-top reaction to a largely imagined slight. In Karlie’s case, she had done nothing but invite a few friends over. In Scooter’s case, those who are most familiar with the backstory reportedly feel that the music mogul did nothing other than pursue a business deal that Taylor had already passed on. “She always does the same thing: She trips up when she goes further than she needed to,” says the source. “She didn’t need to say that she didn’t get told about the deal, when there is clear proof and text messages sent to her.” Referring to Taylor’s feud with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West , the insider adds: “She did the same thing about the Kim K-and-Kanye row [and then] Kim just published the conversation online.” Sounds like Taylor remains as drawn to drama as ever before. Except now, she doesn’t have a crew of loyal supporters to back her up. View Slideshow: Taylor Swift is STILL Talking About That Kim Kardashian Feud

Stassi Schroeder Opens Up About Kristen Doute Feud: It’s Killing Me!

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Well, another summer is almost at an end. It’s a bummer in many respects, but fall offers much to look forward to — the return of football, memes about how much pumpkin spice flavoring sucks, and of course, a new season of Vanderpump Rules . After emerging as a surprise hit on Bravo’s roster back in 2013 Vanderpump has consistently delivered the goods for seven solid seasons now. But there’s no denying that the series has reached the point where most reality shows begin to show their age. Four cast members will get married this season (turns out Tom and Katie’s first wedding wasn’t legal), and now that Stassi is engaged to Beau Clark, with the exception of Kristen Doute, the entire cast is paired off in serious relationships. (In case you missed it, Billie Lee has quit the show . Newcomers often have a hard time with this bunch.) That’s great for the cast, but contented homebodies aren’t known for delivering dramatic fireworks, which could spell trouble for the future of the show. Fortunately, the ladies and gents who pretend to work at SUR remain as petty as ever, and if the feuds among them are fake, then they all deserve acting Emmys. This time around, it’s Kristen Doute who’s been cast out of the Witches of WeHo. The cause of the beef is unclear, but multiple sources have confirmed that Kristen is no longer on speaking terms with Stassi Schroeder or Katie Maloney. Over the weekend, Doute held a launch party for her new t-shirt line, and while Katie’s husband, Tom Schwartz, was on hand, she and Stassi were conspicuously absent. Stassi’s mother, Dayna Schroeder, confirmed on Instagram that there’s some bad blood, calling the feud “quite sad.” “I didn’t really know all the particulars. So I was out of the loop for awhile,” Dayna Schroeder explained. “Don’t you worry, it’s like Lion King and the circle of life. ….each one of these girls will grow, change and come back to their original strong friendship bond that they’ve always had. Somethings just take time.” We’re gonna guess that that quote was delivered after more than a few Pump-tinis! Anyway, Stassi mentioned the feud in passing on her podcast this week, but did not go into detail: “We’re at the homestretch from filming, I have a few days left. My brain is mush,” Schroeder told Clark during her latest episode. “The drama is killing me. I can’t anymore. I can’t talk about this s–t anymore,” she continued. “I’m literally dead inside.” Suddenly, we can’t freakin’ wait for fall! View Slideshow: 37 Classic Vanderpump Rules Moments in GIFs

Kaitlynn Carter: Is She Really DATING Miley Cyrus?!

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

They may have been overshadowed by the suspicious death of Jeffrey Epstein, but Miley Cyrus and Kaitlynn Carter were easily the second biggest story on social media over the weekend. In case you somehow missed the drama, it all unfolded like this: Miley and Liam Hemsworth announced that they had separated after less than a year of marriage. Shortly thereafter, photos of Miley making out with Kaitlynn Carter began to make their way around social media. Kaitlynn recently broke up with Brody Jenner of The Hills /”being a Jenner” fame. We later learned that the pic of Carter and Cyrus locking lips was actually taken before Miley and Liam announced their split. It’s a lot to take in, but basically, the upshot of all this is that last week, Kaitlynn was a Z-list reality star who had recently parted ways with a D-list reality star, and now she’s one of the most googled people on the internet. It seems the millions who are currently searching Kaitlynn’s name mainly have two questions — who the hell is she? And is she actually dating Miley? We’ll do our best to answer them here and spare you any further confusion over Kait-gate. For starters, Carter is a 30-year-old fashion blogger, because of course she is. Kaitlynn kicked off her “digital diary” entitled Hey, Ms. Carter in 2014, but she hasn’t updated since July of this year, when she posted about designing her own wedding dress. Ending your half-assed business venture within weeks of marrying a wealthy pseudo-celeb is some of the most shameless clout-chasing we’ve ever seen, and we commend Kaitlynn for it. Unfortunately, she messed up in one crucial respect, as it seems that she and Brody were never legally married. That means Kait will never get a piece of that sweet Jenner fortune — but as a consolation prize, she did get a piece of Miley. Prior to this weekend, Carter’s biggest claim to fame was a few scenes on The Hills reboot. Now, the whole internet knows her name (or at least the portions of the internet who didn’t spend all weekend wondering how an inmate on suicide watch could possibly commit suicide without the guards knowing!). As for what the future holds for Kaitlynn and Miley, for now, at least, it looks like their hookup was nothing more than that. Both are fresh from very serious relationships, and we would be very surprised if anything serious developed there. But you never know — after all, Miley is unpredictable and Kaitlynn has nothing to lose! View Slideshow: Miley Cyrus Tattoos: Which is Your Favorite?

Kris Jenner Tries to Mend Her Broken Family in KUWTK Sneak Peek

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Keeping Up With The Kardashians continues to be a success, which is why Kris Jenner wants a huge raise for the whole family. From the looks of what's going down in this new sneak peek, every one of them is going to earn that massive salary. Kris has taken her family into the middle of nowhere so that they can address their issues. And her plan for that is absolutely insane. In this new sneak peek clip for  Keeping Up With The Kardashians , the family is in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Sadly, they're not there to take viewers on a tour of their lives as they hunt fellow humans for sport. (Can you imagine how good Kris would be at that, though?) They are all wearing very goofy cowboy getups, which leads Kris to remark that Kendall looks like Jessie from  Toy Story . She's absolutely right. “So, in case you’re wondering why I wanted to bring you all to Jackson Hole [Wyoming],” Kris acknowledges once the group is assembled. The momager expresses: “I think we just really needed some family bonding time.” “I feel like things are a little bit off,” Kris assesses. “And,” she adds. “We really need to press a reset button.” “And have a fresh start,” Kris suggests. “So that we all feel really good about where we are.” “Each one of us has maybe a small to medium sized issue with another,” Kris reveals. Family tensions can grow out of controll if they're not addressed. “And,” she expresses. “I really think we need to work on the things that are bothering us internally.” That is always good advice! You have to make nice or things will fester and get worse. Kris wants to focus on those issues “and working together as a family and a team.” This is when the music starts to get a little silly — both dramatic and inspirational. “I think what I want to do is family morale, team-building exercises,” Kris suggests. Ordinarily, that wiould sound like absolute hell on Earth. But with the Kardashians, it could be entertaining. She wants to engage in activities “where we can do things where we have to work together.” These are all efforts “to try to rebuild our bond.” “Because listen,” Kris says. “We’re ride or die right?” “This family will never be some group that falls apart in any way, shape, or form,” Kris affirms. She explains that this is “because we always have each other's backs.” “That being said, Kourtney,” Kris says. “We're going to take you back to your roots.” She explains: “And you're going to go on a cattle-drive.” Oh, boy. See, back before  Keeping Up With The Kardashians , Kourtney made her first foray into reality television. In 2005, the eldest of Kris' progeny appeared on E!'s  Cattle Drive , which ran from August through October of that year. That doesn't exactly make her an expert, but it probably means that she knows more about bovines than most of us. Referring to that as Kourtney's “roots” is … objectively pretty funny. What Kris has in mind sounds like a very entertaining mess — but will it be the family bonding activity that she hopes? The rest of us should be grateful that, as adults, we can just decline ridiculous demands for family team-building. The Kardashians are bound by contract to go along with Kris' schemes.

Meri Brown Makes a Plea: I’m a Good Person, Okay?!?

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Meri Brown is here to explain herself. She’s here to sort of defend herself. She’s here to help followers gain a better understand of just who she is as a person. The only question remaining is this: WHY?!? On Sunday evening, the seemingly unhappy Sister Wives star shared a meme on her Instagram Story that featured a hand holding a heart. It also featured the following words: At the end of the day, I’m a good woman. I’m not perfect by any means but my intentions are good, my heart is pure and I love hard with everything I’ve got and because of those things … I’m worth it. Always have been and always will be. The mysterious post comes just a few days after the entire Sister Wives universe appeared to blow up . As previously reported, Meri looks to be moving away from the family in Arizona, while even Robyn Brown has allegedly put her house on the market and may also be leaving Kody Brown in the dust. This latter decision comes as a major surprise to long-time fans of this reality show because Robyn has always been billed as Kody’s favorite better half. Meri, conversely, has clearly been dissatisfied with her situation for almost as long as we can remember. She and Kody divorced years ago so that he could legally marry Robyn, but they’ve remain spiritually together ever since. Still, this hasn’t prevented Meri from trying to date; nor has it prevented Kody from acknowledging that serious issues exist between himself and this particular wife. Earlier this year, during a Sister Wives reunion special, Kody and Meri sat side-by-side and opened up about the challenges they’ve been facing as a rather unsual couple. “We have a commitment to a marriage,” Kody said on this TLC special, adding of himself and Meri: “We’re moving forward. We’re steadily working on a direction that’s fully mended.” Was Meri really on the same page, however? A few months after this special aired, Meri appeared to hurl a large amount of shade at her fellow Sister Wives, writing on social media: I wish more women realized that helping another woman win, cheering her on, praying for her, or sharing a resource with her, does NOT take away from the blessings coming to them. In fact, the more you give, the more you receive. Empowering women doesn’t come from selfishness but rather from selflessness. The veteran reality star simply left it at that, however, as she clearly excels at remaining cryptic and hard to decipher online. Take what she wrote on On August 6, for instance, when Brown shared a graphic about being a Capricorn that said: “Most Capricorns can admit they’ve been called every name in the book simply because they ‘appeared’ mean or bossy. “No, they just have a strong personality that is less tolerant of the crap people tend to dish out.” Well… okay then, right?!? For her part, Meri hasn’t talked in too much detail about her and Kody’s many obstacles over the years, simply admitting they exist back during this reunion special. “It was not moving in a positive direction for a really long time prior to the realization,” Meri said of the relationship at the time, adding: “From that point, he and I and everybody had to figure out what we really wanted and move forward from there.” View Slideshow: Kody Brown: In the Market for a 5th Wife?!?

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

Posted on August 12, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

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!
