It can be stressful planning a wedding. And it can be REALLY stressful taking care of a small human being. So, for a couple such as Javi Marroquin and Lauren Comeau — who are both planning a wedding and taking care of a small human being — we can totally understand the need to get away for a little bit. This is exactly what the reality stars have donw, jetting down to Mexico on their own this week for some rest and relaxation… … while rubbing their sexy, flirty fun directly in all of our faces! The nerve of these people, right?!? Sheesh. Check out photos from Lauren and Javi's Mexican adventure below… 1. Having Fun Down South Javi and Lauren shared a number of social media photos of this special, pre-wedding trip to Mexico. 2. Totally Tubular! Javi Marroquin and Lauren Comeau are clearly having a blast in Mexico, as you can see in this fun photo. 3. Hi Hot Stuff! Lauren didn’t hide her attraction to her fiance in this snapshot of Javi enjoying his time off. 4. A Much-Needed Break Any parent of a young child can relate, right? Sometimes it’s just nice to get away for a bit. 5. Vacay Mode Okay, fine. We’re officially jealous. 6. ATV Rider “Today we went swimming in cenotes (sinkholes), and rode atv’s through the jungle. All thanks to @otulumhotel for having the best hospitality. If you want a getaway to Mexico, this place is definitely the place to be,” wrote Javi as a caption to this image. View Slideshow
We've known for months now that Alaskan Bush People was renewed for Season 10 . Now, we finally have a premiere date — and it's sooner than most fans expected. What's more is that the first-ever teaser trailer for Season 10 is already promising a lot. Take a look: The teaser trailer of course opens with Bear Brown, howling in the wildnerness. Then, among a series of glimpses at the family on their sprawling property, the narration becomes a bit more verbal. “For all of us,” Bam Bam says. “It's really important at this point in life to have our own piece of land.” “What we're doing here is symbolizing the future of the Browns,” he expresses. And there are a lot of things to accomplish. “We're back guys,” family patriarch Billy Brown announces triumphantly. He then lays out what needs to get done — and the timeline in which they have to accomplish their construction. “It's really important each one of the guys,” Billy explains. “They have their houses finished before the snow locks us up.” Building multiple houses in that time frame with a small team? That's no easy feat under the best of circumstances. But as Alaskan Bush People viewers have seen, the family has a lot of experience with construction. At another point, viewers see Gabe Brown give a hard, honest look at his surroundings. “This is going to be a long, hard winter,” he predicts. Gabe is the first to admit: I don't know what to expect.” Fortunately, fans can guess that they'll get more of the Brown Family content that they've been enjoying for years. Other flashes show Ami cradling her grandbaby, so fans who've grown more attached to the family than to their lifestyle will have plenty of good content. Some of the sensational elements that first lured viewers to the show no longer really apply. It's hard to think of people as “roughing it” when they're a family of millionaires on their own 435-acre property. Especially when they also have a mansion in Beverly Hills. And Alaskan Bush People is no longer even filmed in Alaska. But part of the magic of reality television is that people start identifying with these families. Watching them grow and love becomes more important than watching them built a shelter. A number of fans immediately replied to this teaser with questions about Matt. Multiple rumors have alleged that he is feuding with his family — not all of them, necessarily. Possibly only with his father. After handling some sobriety issues late last year, he took some time away from the new homestead. It sounds like he and Billy had some sort of falling out after that. Fans would be delighted to see him — and it may be that the teaser deliberately did not show him. Plenty will tune in just to see how things are with Matt. Season 10 premieres on Sunday, August 4. For obvious family reasons, the Browns have had fewer episodes in recent years. Each season, however short, is a blessing for fans. It's also a blessing for the network — Alaskan Bush People remains hugely popular.
Back in 2013, The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s NeNe Leakes remarried Gregg Leakes after filing for divorce two years earlier. Now, it looks as if the Bravo mainstay might soon find herself once again dividing assets and wishing she’d signed a prenup! An insider tells The Hollywood Gossip exclusively that while she’s clearly trying to keep it on the DL, this OG Peach is stepping out. According to our source, NeNe has been cheating on her husband with a man she met during her business trips to Maryland. “Nene Leakes has not only been spending a lot of time in Maryland lately since the opening of her new SWAGG Boutique at the MGM Casino in Oxon Hill,” our insider reports. “But she also been spending most of her time there because she has a boyfriend there in Maryland who she is openly dating.” Wow. How does our insider claim to know this? “I’m an employee at the Starbucks across from her Swagg boutique,” the source says. “Me other MGM employees are surprised how open she has been openly parading her new bae around the casino.” “[NeNe] can care less who see and knows about it since she is a married woman,” the insider adds. Yes, not only is NeNe spending time in the company of a side-piece, it seems she doesn’t care who knows about it! The allegation is made all the more shocking by the fact that Gregg Leakes has been battling cancer for the past year. Thankfully for all, Gregg is currently in remission. Based on how comfortable NeNe seems to be with her boy toy, though, we’re guessing this affair is not a new development. Following a three-season hiatus, NeNe is back on the show that made her famous – but not without some serious tumult. While she stood by Gregg throughout his cancer battle, the process clearly took a toll on their already fractured marriage. NeNe was open about the fact that despite all he was going through, Gregg should have treated his wife so much better. Moreover, reports from the set claim that Leakes is feuding with her co-stars so badly that the Real Housewives of Atlanta crew is struggling to compile any usable footage. Insiders say her beef with Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore has gotten so bad that she refuses to film with either woman. Leakes, of course, is arguably the greatest success story of the Housewives franchise – which is saying a lot. Having parlayed her reality TV popularity into success in acting, fashion, and various other side projects, she’s a bona fide star. And rich. See below. View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of Atlanta: How Much Are the Stars Paid? But have all those triumphs resulted in such a feeling of imperviousness that Leakes believes she can shamelessly cheat on her husband? Without consequence? Perhaps she and Gregg have privately entered some sort of open arrangement? Or have separated and not told the public? We can’t say for sure, yet, but you can bet this latest bombshell will be used as ammo against NeNe in her many feuds.
Back in December of 2017, Luann de Lesseps was arrested after drunkenly assaulting a police officer. The incident uncovered something even more serious than an attack on a uniformed officer of the law — namely, Luann’s alcoholism . In the months since her arrest, de Lesseps has been to hell and back in her efforts to get sober and get her life back on track. She’s been admirably open about her struggles with addiction, and in a new interview with E!, Luann claims that her RHONY co-stars sometimes made her recovery even more difficult than it needed to be. “I’m doing really well. I’m going to meetings, doing yoga, just taking care of myself,” de Lesseps said at the outset. “I take it one day at a time, like everybody else does. For today, I’m sober, and I really plan on staying sober.” Asked about her co-stars and their reaction to her decision to withdraw from the group somewhat, Luann revealed that she found it hard to be around them during certain stages of her recovery: “I think they thought I was being insensitive to their feelings, but really, what I was doing is taking care of myself,” she said. Asked about her shooting scenes in the early days of her sobriety, de Lesseps remarked: “And it was very difficult to be sober. There was a lot of drinking going on, and I didn’t focus on that. I didn’t want them to feel bad for drinking, so I didn’t really bring it up.” “And it doesn’t really bother me. What bothers me is excessive drinking. That’s the problem.” Yes, Luann seems to be suggesting that her co-stars would benefit from cutting back on the sauce or possibly even quitting entirely. She might be right — but she should probably focus on her own booze intake, at least for the time being. In a separate interview with Access Hollywood , de Lesseps explains that she’s been inspired by the recovery of Demi Lovato, who’s once again sober following a near-fatal relapse last year. “She’s been very public about her struggle and I think it’s important. I think a lot of people are struggling and they don’t know how to help themselves,” she told the outlet. Luann says that Bravo president Andy Cohen has also been instrumental in her recovery. “It’s been difficult, and doing it in the public eye has been even more difficult, so I take it day by day,” de Lesseps says. “I’m at the point where I can finally go to a party now and not drink, and I’m OK with that.” Luann promised that in part 2 of the RHONY reunion show — which airs tonight on Bravo — she’ll reveal more about “what’s happening to me personally, in terms of my legal situation and how difficult that has been.” Yes, as a result of repeated relapses, Luann has violated her probation on more than one occasion, and she might still face jail time. “I’ve paid dearly for that one horrible night,” de Lesseps says. Well, that one night and several f–k-ups in the 18 months that followed, but we know what she means. Luckily for Luann, the reunion filmed before her latest comments went public. The last thing she needs is another violent altercation on her record. View Slideshow: Luann de Lesseps: Ordered Back to Prison After Drinking Again
About one month ago, Fernanda Flores posted an massive 44-minute documentary explaining why her marriage to Jonathan Rivera came to an end. She leveled some major accusations against him at the time. Now, Fernanda has opened up further to fans. And this time, she has some words about Jonathan’s new girlfriend, too. … First of all, fans want to know if she heard from Jonathan after she posted her video accusing him of money problems, drinking problems, and abuse. “No he didn’t,” Fernanda shares. “We don’t have contact at all.” She did note that his family reached out to her to ask that a photo of them that was featured in the video be removed. Fernanda obliged their concerns, pulling the video, editing it, and then returning the new version. “I totally get it,” Fernanda explains. Naturally, since Jonathan has been flaunting his new lady love on social media, the topic came up. Fernanda says that she doesn’t “really have an opinion.” That makes sense. They’ve never so much as met. That said, Fernanda does admit that she’s surprised that this girl would willingly be “with a married man.” Wait, what? We were all under the impression that their divorce papers were taken care of earlier this summer. “He said that he signed the divorce papers. Lie,” Fernanda declares. “He just filed for divorce,” she adds. “And I just got the paperwork last week” “How you don’t respect yourself as a woman?” Fernanda seems to ask Fernanda’s new girl. “Divorce first and then, well see, right?” she suggests. Fernanda offers an explanation for why, despite her youth, her looks, and her modeling work, she isn’t back in the dating game. She reasons: “some people just go right away to relationships to feel good with themselves and say ‘look how happy I am.’” “Other people heal by themselves, deal with the pain … and then move on,” Fernanda states. The implication here is that Fernanda is of that second variety, working on herself before she tries love again. It also sounds like she’s caling Jonathan’s happiness shallow or performative. “The producers reached out to me when we separated,” Fernanda reveals to her fans. But, she notes, they also made contact with Jonathan. “He answered them,” Fernanda says. “He talked to them. He filmed with them. He [sold] his part of the story to them.” “The reason why I didn’t is because I got zero from the show,” she explains. “I got no money from it.” “He did,” she notes. “And I felt like that was really, really unfair because I came here without money.” “I didn’t want to be part of that anymore,” Fernanda explains. She’s not the first 90 Day Fiance star to want to take charge of her portrayal. On the more positive and less dramatic side of things, it does sound like Fernanda is much happier these days. She gushes that she “loves” living in Chicago. “It’s really, really good and I’m happy,” Fernanda assures her numerous fans. So sweet!

Ben Higgins says he has a few questions for Hannah Brown. And they all center around two rather important topics: 1. Religion. 2. Sex. We’ve suddenly got your attention, don’t we? During a podcast discussion on Tuesday with Bachelor Nation’s Courtney Robertson, Higgins honed in on how open Brown has been during this season of The Bachelorette about the pair of subject cited above. She has talked often about both her faith and, to be frank, her f-cking. We’re not being crass here. Hannah literally told the camera that she “f-cked” one of her suitors in a windmill. Twice. “One thing that I think Hannah is doing that is a little bit confusing is … she’s saying things like, ‘We all fall short and we need God’s grace,’” the former Bachelor lead said to Robertson, adding that he isn’t certain how to square Hannah’s fondness for sex with her belief in Jesus Christ. View Slideshow: Hannah Brown Banged in a Windmill and Twitter Lost Its Mind “Within that speech, she’s admitting to an incorrect decision, which on the show, I’m watching this and can kind of get behind her saying, ‘No, I feel good about this [decision to have sex],’” Higgins continued, referencing an Instagram post Brown shared last month . “And so is she saying she made a mistake by doing this? Or is she owning it and saying, ‘I’m confident in my decision to do this?’ “Because there are two different things that are happening … and that’s the one part that is confusing me with Hannah.” Facing backlash from Christian trolls who have dared to sex-shame her online, Brown fired back this summer as follows: “I am standing firm in believing that maybe God wants to use a mess like me to point to His goodness and grace. But dang, it’s hard… “We all fall short of the glory of God…we just happen to do it on national television.” What Higgins seems to be saying here is that Hannah wants to have it both ways. She wants to admit to falling “short” when it comes to her religion, implying that her goal is to please the Almighty — while also standing up for herself as a sexually active single person who just wants to get herself some D . We never thought The Bachelorette would cause folks to debate religion and how one ought to balance one’s love for God with one’s love for making love… but here we are. Higgins went on to claim that the one thing that he thinks Hannah has “not done well” is say one thing on air, but then jump on social media and make posts towards Luke that are “counterintuitive.” Indeed, ousted suitor Luke Parker and Hannah finally went at each other this past Monday night. But they did so with their clothes fully on , as Parker came right out and said he wanted off the show if Hannah had slept with any other contestant. He did all he could to guilt trip Hannah for her sexual actions, acting as if he owned her and as if she had done something wrong by getting her bang on with these other eligible fellas. “I have had sex, and, honestly, Jesus still loves me,” Hannah said to Luke to put a capper on their epic argument . “@AlabamaHannah The difference in how we view sin is seen in the response, I’m weeping at mine and you’re laughing at yours. All sin stings. My heart hurts for both of us,” Luke later Tweeted, which sparked a reaction from Brown as follows: Time and time again jesus loved and ate with ‘sinners’ who laughed. and time and time again he rebuked ‘saints’ that judged. where do you fall Luke?

On June 26th, Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman became a widower when his wife, Beth, passed away after battling cancer. And understandably, he’s having a tough time dealing with that huge loss. Dog has made many public statements admitting how much he’s struggling, each more heartbreaking than the last. Last weekend, a memorial service was held for Beth in Colorado — it was open to anyone and everyone who wanted to remember her, so several people were there to document what he said in his speech there. At one point in the service, he said “She will never be dead to me. She is in another place.” “I’m gonna get to heaven and make her so proud,” he insisted. “She’s gonna say it like she said here, ‘That’s my man right there, that’s big daddy right there.'” He also recalled one of the last conversations he had with her, one where she told him “Please big daddy, please let me go .” “I said, ‘No, I can’t,'” he remembered. “‘I’m not gonna let you go.'” “I still haven’t let her go,” he told the people in attendance. He said that he’s never felt so bad, and that “If there’s a God, he won’t let me live that long without her.” It seems like at the moment, he’s not too interested in the idea of going about things without Beth by his side — at another point in the service, he said something similar. “In the ’70s, I did 18 months in the Texas penitentiary,” he said, “and I told God yesterday I’d do five years, ten years day to day just to kiss her again.” Now, Dog is sharing the same sentiment on Instagram … except this time, it’s more of a threat. On his page, he shared this meme that reads “Don’t piss off old people. The older we get, the less “life in prison” is a deterrent.” In his caption, he wrote “Fugitives beware,” and hashtagged his new show, Dog’s Most Wanted . Another hashtag he used? “Dog without Beth.” We know that Beth did a lot of filming for this upcoming show — she refused to do chemo so she could travel with him to shoot it. From what we’ve seen, her failing health was part of the show as well. It will be so heartbreaking to see how this all plays out on television. Especially since, judging by this post, Dog is considering taking some of his grief out on the fugitives he catches. In the comments, his faithful followers were quick to offer him love and support — and it looks like some of them are genuinely afraid he’ll land himself in prison. One woman commented “I told my husband those fugitives better really watch out for Dog now!” Another person wrote “Keeping you and your family in my thoughts. Keep your head clear, Dog. Beth is watching from above, cheering you on.” “I know it’s hard but don’t let your grief cloud your judgement and diminish your morals.” So many people noted his “Dog without Beth” hashtag and told him that he would never truly be without her, that she was watching over him always. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2019: In Memoriam We hope he’s able to deal with his grief in a healthy way, and that he manages to get through this immensely difficult time as easily as he possibly can. And, as always, RIP, Beth.
It’s hard to imagine that anyone could possibloy do more with a single year of their life than what Meghan Markle has accomplished in the past 12 months. But despite all that she’s achieved, it was often Meghan’s feud with Kate Middleton that dominated tabloid headlines. Yes, for as long as she’s been a Royal, Meghan’s allegedly strained relationship with Kate has been a favorite subject of the media. Even after new revelations indicated that it was a feud between Harry and William that caused the women to behave coolly toward one another in public, certain media outlets couldn’t resist the “catfighting duchesses” narrative. In recent weeks, however, there’s been a shift not only in Meg and Kate’s behavior toward one another, but also in the way the press has been covering their relationship. Kate and Meghan attennded Wimbledon together last week, and it was hard not to notice the signs that the two of them had seemed to be enjoying an almost-sisterly bond. Now, the renewed friendship between the “princess moms” is the subject of a People magazine cover story. “There is a sense of [Meghan and Kate’s] relationship strengthening,” says a source close to the situation. The source says that the duchesses “were genuine and sweet together,” while watching Meghan’s friend Serena Williams compete. When Williams lost her match, “Kate put her hand out and rubbed Meghan’s back to console her,” the insider recalls. “It illustrated a warm relationship between these women who have young babies and are in similar situations in their lives,” royal expert Victoria Arbiter told People. “Coming from different backgrounds, I think, they have more the makings of a team than people imagined,” says author and historian Robert Lacey. ‘“And they have a common interest as partners to these two men who are so crucial to the monarchy, along with their children.” People’s source confirms that the duchesses have become much closer in the months since Meghan welcomed her first child . “They’re each a little more relaxed,” says the insider. “They have more in common now.” Ironically, Kate and Harry’s decision to move out of Kensington Palace apparently brought the couple closer to Will and Kate. The source claims distancing themselves from the living space they once shared has allowed the Fab Four “them more time to be like family,” rather than colleagues. Whatever the case, we much prefer this narrative to the one in which Kate and Meg are forever at one another’s throats — and we’re sure we’re not alone!
Amber Portwood has spoken out for the first time since her arrest for domestic battery. But she hasn’t proclaimed her innocence. Nor has she thanked her fans for their support. Instead, the embattled Teen Mom OG star has seemingly hurled an enormous amount of shade in the direction of her alleged victim, Andrew Glennon. As you surely must know by now, Portwood is in major trouble with the law. She’s accused of throwing a shoe at Glennon early on the morning of July 5, prior to actually getting a machete and using it to try and break into the bathroom where Glennon ran off to hide with the couple’s young son, James. It’s wild and disturbing stuff. Amber, for her part, had not said anything about her arrest or the alleged incident that led up to it… … until Wednesday afternoon. “Cheating is a choice not a mistake,” Portwood wrote in a since-deleted post, seemingly implying that Glennon has been cheating on her. We hope Portwood doesn’t think this would be an acceptable excuse to attack Glennon, especially considering he was cradling little James at the time of the reported assault. Still, though…. Andrew being unfaithful to his girlfriend would certainly add a fairly big twist to this ugly scandal. For whatever it’s worth, however, Amber’s brother, Shawn, has shot down any cheating allegations. “No. He did not cheat. Get that out of y’alls minds,” Shawn Tweeted back on July 11. This is the same brother who claims he’s seen evidence that his sister is innocent of all charges . The timing of Amber’s apparent infidelity accusation is interesting to note, though. It was shared on the same day that Andrew not only demanded full custody of James, but also child support. In court documents, he went on to request that Amber not be allowed around James without professional supervision. “Father believes it is in James’ best interests that he be awarded sole legal and primary physical custody,” read these court papers, which Andrew filed on July 9. They continue: “Father believes that it is not currently in James’ best interests for Mother to have unsupervised parenting time.” It would stand to therefore reason that Portwood would try to discredit her second baby daddy a bit by hinting that he has a wandering and dishonest penis. View Slideshow: Andrew Glennon: Fighting For Sole Custody of Son Following Amber Portwood Attack! Portwood has been charged with three felonies: Domestic battery. Criminal recklessness committed with a deadly weapon. Domestic battery committed in the presence of a child less than 16 years old. She spent 17 months in jail back in 2013 due to a previous assault against ex-boyfriend Gary Shirley. According to an affidavit from the arrest detailing the alleged incident, the Teen Mom OG star allegedly took a handful of pills and “threatened to kill herself” before pulling the aforementioned weapon on him Glennon. Fans are now debating whether Amber should be fired by MTV and whether she ought to lose custody of James. And the Winner is? YES! Click Here To Vote for YES! NO! Click Here To Vote for NO! Following her latest arrest, you tell us: Should Amber Portwood lose custody of her young son? View Poll » Amber has admitted in the past to being diagnosed with bipolar disorder and also to suffering from postpartum depression after giving birth to James. She has a history of violence against Shirly and now, it seems, against Glennon… but Amber’s ex-fiance, Matt Baier, spoke to TMZ on Wednesday and said she never raised a hand against him . “We had some legendary arguments but I never had an experience where she went after me with a machete!” Matt told this gossip website, adding: “So, no, I can’t really relate as far as that goes…I think there’s definitely got to be two sides to this story. I just don’t see Amber Portwood chasing someone around the house with a machete!” Baier – who Teen Mom viewers know is not exactly prime example of solid parenting – did admit that he’s concerned about Amber and Andrew’s son, however. “If this happened in front of the baby then that’s horrible,” he said. “I’ve read so many comments saying that Amber shouldn’t be around the baby and so forth. “But the Amber that I know was a wonderful mother, and she would never put her children in harm’s way in any way, shape or form.” View Slideshow: Amber Portwood: FIRED From Teen Mom OG For Attacking Boyfriend With Machete?
