Keeping Up With The Kardashians: Ending After Season 17?

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Fans and viewers recently watched Khloe Kardashian go kaboom on the season finale of  Keeping Up With The Kardashians . The season definitely went out with a bang, focusing on the fallout of the now infamous Tristan Thompson cheating scandal.  Fans who were left clamoring for more Kardashian drama can rest easy; If Kris Jenner has her way, the whole family will be on air for years to come. According to a RadarOnline report , Kris is currently hard at work locking in the contracts for future seasons of the show. The family’s previous contract was worked out before filming Season 13, back in 2017. It’s only been two years, but because of the family’s legendary overexposure, they’re already filming Season 17. Season 17 will be the final season covered by the last contract, and so it’s time for the family to be looking toward the future. Kris entered the negotiations with high goals and proverbial guns ablaze. The family momager naturally wants all five of the Kardashian/Jenner daughters to return and keep their regular roles on the series. This gets harder every year as these enterprising women grow in their own directions and get involved in their own projects. The biggest takeaway though, is that Kris is asking for another ten seasons! “Kris is shooting for ten more seasons this time around,” a source told  RadarOnline,  “So she does not have to worry about it.”  The source, an individual allegedly close to the family, added that “All of the girls seem to be on board as of right now.” “Although several of her daughters, including Kourney, Kylie and Kendall, have said they wanted out,” the source continued, The insider stated: “Kris knows that they will stay put for the right amount of money.” Kris is probably right. She has shrewd instincts about money, and her daughters’ needs, as a mother and manager should. With that said, Kylie is already a billionaire in her own right. She could walk away from the series, never work again, and still live out her days in luxury. This applies to her sisters as well, if to a lesser extent. But we expect they’ll all return, if only because the show is still doing so well. The first part of the electrifying season 16 finale had 2.3 million total viewers, and was  E! ‘s most-streamed episode ever. A family insider reportedly told  RadarOnline that “Kris is bragging to everyone about the latest ratings.” “She is sure that it will enable her to get new contracts for all of them,” the insider added.  That does sound like something Kris would do, but keep in mind that nothing is set in stone. Contract negotiations are tricky, especially with Karsdashian-level money on the line. The details of the deal are sure to change before everything is finalized. We’d love to get some more solid information, such as an announcement from  E!, the network that actually airs the program. For now, it’s enough to know that the show is doing well, and that Kris Jenner is putting all her terrifying might into keeping her dynasty on air for as long as possible.

Jenelle Evans to Nathan Griffith: I’ve Got Our Son… and You Suck!

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jenelle Evans received the news she had been waiting for last week: A judge declared that her two kids, two-year old Ensley and four-year old Kaiser, must be returned to her care … following over a month in which they lived with relatives because authorites have decreed that Evans and her husband were keeping them in an unsafe environment. So, now that these toddlers are back home, Jenelle is just keeping quiet and ejoying her time with them, right? She's not starting or continuing any feuds and she's just kicking back and savoring every second with her family, right? HA! WRONG! Evans has already hurled shade at Amber Portwood and Nathan Griffith, the latter of whom is the father of Kaiser and who was able to spend more time with his son than ever before after Kaiser was removed from Jenelle's home. What has he said in the wake of their return? And how has Evans fired back? Scroll down to find out! 1. Let’s Set the Scene, Shall We? As a quick refresher: David Eason shot and killed his family’s dog this spring because he claimed it put Ensley in danger by snapping at her. 2. Bye, Bye, Kids Child Protection Services then swooped in and took Enlsey, Kaiser and Eason’s 11-year old daughter from a previous relationship, Maryssa, away from Jenelle and David. 3. Many Hearings Followed… Eason and Evans went to court on numerous occasions in the weeks since in order to plead their case and prove they actually ARE, indeed, fit parents. 4. … Until a Verdit Was Handed Down On July 3, Evans Tweeted the news that her kids were on the way home. Per various reports, the judge in the case stated in court that she “did not see evidence of neglect” on Jenelle and David’s part. 5. Evans Said She was Crying “Tears of Joy” in Response She added in an interview that a couple teachers testified on her and David’s behalf, stating for the record that they had never had any issues with the couple as parents. 6. Let the Celebration Commence Because she got her kids back on July 4, Jenelle was able to go out and celebrate with them all weekend long. She shared photos such as this one online to show how much fun they were having. View Slideshow

Thomas Markle: The Queen Should Have Invited Me to Archie’s Christening!

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Over the weekend, the British Royal Family shared photos from baby Archie’s christening . It was a small and very formal ceremony, but one family member in particular was conspicuously absent. Meghan Markle’s awful dad was not invited, but he’s still speaking out about how much he’d have liked to go. Speaking to the Mail on Sunday , Thomas Markle opened up about whether he’d have attended his grandson’s christening. “I have been asked if I would have liked to have gone to Britain to see my new grandson being christened,” Thomas noted. He then furnishes anyone interested with elements of his own backstory. “I was an altar boy at age 12,” he recalls. “A confirmed member of the Queen’s church at age 14.” “And,” Thomas reminds the world. “Archie is my new grandson.” Thomas continues, explaining that there’s no question as to whether he’d have liked to have attended the ceremony. “Of course I would have enjoyed being there for the blessing,” Thomas affirms. He was, of course, not invited, for the same reason that he has missed so many family events. Thomas has not handled fame well — he speaks to the press and when he does so, he speaks impulsively. Even so, Thomas concludes by stating that he is “wishing Archie and his parents’ health and happiness.” Stunning photographs from the christening were shared on social media. “This morning, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was christened,” the caption began. The caption detailed: “in the Private Chapel at Windsor Castle at an intimate service officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby.” “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are so happy to share the joy of this day with members of the public,” the caption praised. The caption noted: “who have been incredibly supportive since the birth of their son.” “They thank you for your kindness,” the post expressed. “In welcoming their first born and celebrating this special moment.” “Their Royal Highnesses feel fortunate to have enjoyed this day with family and the godparents of Archie,” the caption continued. “Their son, Archie, was baptised wearing the handmade replica of the royal christening gown,” the post revealed. This was a particular gown “which has been worn by royal infants for the last 11 years.” “The original Royal Christening Robe, made of fine Honiton lace lined with white satin, was commissioned by Queen Victoria in 1841,” the caption added. “And,” the post continued, that gown was “first worn by her eldest daughter.” “It was subsequently worn for generations of Royal christenings, including The Queen, her children and her grandchildren,” the caption explains. This went on “until 2004, when The Queen commissioned this handmade replica.” The post concludes by explaining that the Queen did this “in order for the fragile historic outfit to be preserved, and for the tradition to continue.” Thomas would have enjoyed attending the ceremony, and we don’t doubt that, under other circumstances, he would have been welcome. But he has spent too long blabbing to any tabloid that will take the time to listen to him. His words are of interest, so the tabloids are not to blame for publishing his interviews. It is Thomas’ responsibility to keep quiet and prove that he can be trusted. Since he refuses to do that, Meghan has had no choice but to cut off contact. It’s a real shame.

Tori Roloff Sends Sweet Message to Joy-Anna Duggar After Miscarriage

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

As you may have heard, some extremely heartbreaking news came from the Duggar family last week. Joy-Anna had a miscarriage at 20 weeks pregnant. The majority of miscarriages happen in the first trimester, but a couple of weeks ago, Joy and Austin went in for an anatomy scan. As they explained it on their Instagram page, that’s where their doctor told them that the baby’s heart was no longer beating . “Although we don’t understand why,” they wrote, “God has given us unexplainable peace and comfort during this very difficult time.” “Yes, it still hurts and we have cried countless tears, but we know that we can trust the Lord.” They said that “We don’t grieve as those who have no hope because we trust that we will see this little one again.” The ultrasound that showed the loss of the baby also showed that the baby was a girl, and Joy and Austin named her Annabell Elise. “Annabell means ‘God has favored me,’ and Elise means ‘God satisfies,'” they said. “What a precious thing to know that when our daughter opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the face of Jesus.” They also asked their followers to “Please pray for continued healing, not only physically but for our hearts as well.” It’s just an unimaginably tragic situation, right? Because the miscarriage happened so late in the pregnancy, Joy had to deliver the baby stillborn, which had to have been just devastating. In the pictures she shared after that delivery , the pain is evident on her face. Luckily, she has such a large family to support her through this as best they can. Her mother, Michelle, and sister Jill were there with her in those photos, and other family members have been very vocal about paying their respects. On Joy and Austin’s Instagram post, Jessa wrote “We love y’all so much and we grieve with you over this loss. I love the name you chose and the meaning behind it.” “Annabell Elise will forever be in our hearts.” Anna told them that she was “heartbroken” about what had happened, and that “We are so thankful for the joy her life brought and we look forward to seeing Annabell when we see Jesus in heaven.” Jeremy, Jinger’s husband, said “We love you and are praying for you. Your trust in the Lord throughout these days has inspired me to know God more intimately.” He expressed a very similar sentiment to Anna’s with “I look forward to meeting Annabell Elise with you in heaven.” But family members weren’t the only ones offering their condolences. Tori Roloff took some time to reach out to Joy and Austin, too. On Instagram, Tori wrote “Austin and Joy my heart just absolutely breaks for you two. I am so sorry. You are in my prayers.” She added “How blessed she is that she gets to be with Jesus and she gets to call you two mom and dad.” It’s so kind of Tori to leave a message like this, especially when many people in her position may prefer to not even think about such heartbreak — remember, she’s pregnant right now . Hopefully Joy and Austin saw her comment, and all of the other sweet comments about this tragedy. View Slideshow: 33 Stars Who Have Suffered a Miscarriage It would probably do them some good to see that, no matter how awful they’re surely feeling right now, they’ve got tons of love and support from all kinds of people out there.

Shannon Beador: I’m Dating as Many Men as I Want!

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Back in April, Shannon Beador reached a divorce settlement with David after what felt like an eternity of vicious, bitter court fights. Since her split, Shannon has been dipping her toes into the world of dating again. Actually, she’s taken a real plunge. Her castmates tease her for being a “heartbreaker” because, after her latest breakup, she’s now dating multiple men. RadarOnline reports that the The Real Housewives of Orange County star has been “cooling off” her romance with Comcast exec Rick Stanley. These days, Shannon Beador is dating “several men.” And apparently she’s loving every minute of it. “She’s been called a heartbreaker by her cast mates,” the insider reveals. “But,” the source emphasizes. “She is not hurting anyone.” Shannon is rich, famous, and she’s finally getting to enjoy that. “She is having fun being frisky,” the insider shares. Good for her for living her best life! “And,” the source adds, Shannon “is just enjoying her new life.” It’s great that she gets to date and have fun without David’s attorneys breathing down her neck. As the report points out, Shannon hasn’t really been single for a long, long time. She’s 55 years old and a mother of three, but she’s spent so much of her adult life tied down in a deteriorating marriage. “She was with her ex [David Beador] for her whole life,” the insider points out. Which explains why she’s taking time to explore her options instead of diving directly in to another long-term relationship. “And,” the source adds, Shannon “is not wanting to settle down like that anytime soon.” Though things have simmered down with Rick Stanley, the report emphasizes that this wasn’t some dramatic split. “Shannon really enjoyed Rick’s company,” the insider affirms. The source adds that “They got along great,” “But,” the insider explains. “Rick lives in Colorado and she lives in California.” Long-distance relationships can be difficult, even for wealthy people who can afford to travel whenever work allows. “Long distance is one thing,” the insider notes. “But,” the source continues. “That is a completely different ballgame.” Some people form international relationships for years without meeting up in person. In Shannon’s case, she’s trying to get out and about and actually date, so she wants someone a little closer to home. “If Shannon is going to get serious with someone,” the insider reveals. “He is going to have to at least live in the same state as she does.” Shannon has been through so much. Remember, even before she and David divorced, she was already living a stressful, emotionally painful nightmare. She was body-shamed. She was cheated on. And then the divorce got so dirty that she found her home’s water cut off. Not to mention incidents in which David was allegedly seen and heard yelling and swearing at Shannon in the courthouse. Now, she gets to reap the well-earned rewards of her status as a rich, single reality star. We hope that she lives it up on these dates. We also hope that at least some of Shannon’s plural dating shenanigans are caught on camera for us all to enjoy. View Slideshow: Shannon Beador Slammed by David’s Girlfriend in Scathing Callout

Tori Roloff: Uggh! This Pregnancy is Making Me So Fat!

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

We’re just gonna go right ahead and say this up front: We love and admire you, Tori Roloff. You’ve managed to build a huge Instagram following while remaining upbeat, kind, helpful and, simply put, normal . That’s not easy to do in this day and age. Why did we feel a need to open this post by stating our take on the Little People, Big World star? Because Roloff shared an emotional message on her social media account over the weekend that candidly focused on her second pregnancy… how it compares to her first pregnancy… and what she is struggling with these days, both physically and mentally. “This pregnancy has been a lot harder on me than the last. Don’t get me wrong-I’ve been so lucky… im not sick (anymore) and I haven’t had any complications (thank the lord),” wrote Amy to open her caption to the photo above. Amy and Zach Roloff announced they were expecting again in mid-May. They are already parents to a two-year old named Jackson. And Tori has talked previously about why this pregnancy has been a a challenge . In this case, however, she gets far more personal than ever before. “I have had a harder time accepting my body this go around,” Tori now confesses, adding: “I’ve gotten bigger a lot faster than I did with Jackson and I’ve become a lot more insecure. “Hearing people ask me if I’m sure it’s not twins definitely does not help (for all our sakes-don’t ever ask a woman this question. Like ever).” About two weeks ago, Tori joked about how quickly her baby bump was growing . Here, though, she gets pretty serious pretty darn quickly. “It’s been hard to really enjoy this pregnancy because I’ve let my own body image issues get in the way,” she admits, prior to turning her attention to her gender in general and writing: “Us as women are so badass. Like we can grow babies. And I know I need to give this up to God right and be thankful for this gift-and I’m trying trust me. But for all those women out there-pregnant or not- you need to hear this just like I do.” Her what? Tori goes on to deliver a rather awesome pep talk. This is what she writes: You’re beautiful, you’re strong, and dang it love yourself no matter what. I know someone besides just me needs to hear that today. So excuse me while I go try my best to live out these words and continue growing a freaking human being. Like we said at the outset: We really love Tori Roloff. We can’t wait to meet her daughter in November. Yup: We already know the baby’s gender and approximate due date. Back on May 13, Tori and Zach confirmed their major family news to Us Weekly. “We are so excited to announce that Jackson is going to be a big brother!” the couple shared back then, adding: “We can not wait to meet our sweet baby girl!” Hey, we feel the same way! We just said that! Congratulations, you two. And also: SO well said above, Tori. Hang in there. View Slideshow: Tori and Zach Roloff: Secrets of the Little People, Big World Stars’ Private Lives

Meghan King Edmonds Reveals Her Son Has "Irreversible Brain Damage"

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Meghan King Edmonds has penned a blog entry in which she opens up about something personal and painful. Titled “My Hart,” this post by the former Real Housewives of Orange County star delves in the state of Hart, one of her twin boys, who was born along with brother Hayes in June of 2018. “From the minute he was born I knew something was different with Hart,” wrote the long-time Bravo personality over this past weekend, adding: “The nurses struggled to straighten his legs to measure his length. He suckled hard, shallow, and often until I bled and he spit up black.” Edmonds, who was recently in the news because her husband has been accused of having an affair while she was pregnant with these boys, went on to write that she took Hart to see a pediatric ophthalmologist for a couple of reasons: He couldn’t see his hands, for example, and his eyes remained crossed for too long. The reality star says she was told nothing was the matter with Hart, but she refused to accept this as an answer. “I just knew,” Meghan continues. “I told our pediatrician – she said he was fine. I begged for a neurologist referral and when I got it – he said he was fine. I then begged for a neurologist who specializes in Cerebral Palsy (I jumped through hoops to get this appointment, so many hoops) and she said he might be fine. “I then begged for an MRI.” Via “an elective MRI with anesthesia,” as Edmonds describes it, a diagnosis was finally made. “I sat at a table with my husband for an hour as we waited for Hart to come out of the MRI. Tears gushed from my eyes as I blankly stared at the cars on the highway – but I wasn’t crying,” she recalled in this blog post. “My husband asked me what he could do. ‘Get me a Coke.’ Those tears were for a lot of things, but mostly the unknown and mostly Hart.” Three days after the exam, the toddler’s neurologist called. He relayed the awful news. “Hart has minor Periventricular Leukomalacia on both sides of his brain (namely the white matter), but more so on his right,” Edmonds revealed, explaining in further detail: “She said that this explains all of my concerns: the rigidity in his muscles, the (somewhat) delayed physical milestones, the lack of fluidity with arm and leg movements, the stiffness in joints, the weakness in his lower back, the somewhat favored use of his right side. “She told me this mainly occurs in premies and since he was not a premie (he was born at 37 weeks gestation) she believes this damage somehow occurred ‘a couple months before he was born.’ “She explained that he is at risk for being diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and will be monitored.” Edmonds previously opened up about her reaction to her husband’s misdeeds . But this admission is even more raw and unimaginable. “Hart has irreversible brain damage, it’s called PVL,” Meghan says. “Like I said, I already knew.” Referencing her husband and his reaction, along with how she chose to view the situation, Edmonds adds: “That night Jimmy and I went out to dinner for the first time in weeks. “I explained to Jimmy how we are not somehow compromised or punished for having a child with special needs (whatever that may or may not mean!), we are BLESSED. I will go on about this another time but just know that I do not see his diagnosis as anything but a gift: we were chosen to take on this special person. “I truly feel as if we’ve doubled down and won the underdog hand. Truly.” And Edmonds is stillt trying tomake the best out of the situation. She’s still trying to remain as positive as possible. “I pray for a miracle and I grapple with how to navigate his life,” she wrote. “This is a heavy challenge as a mother: where do we go from here?  This is where: one foot in front of the other.” We applaud Edmonds for her candid post and we send her and her loved ones the very best during this difficult journey.

Amber Portwood: Released From Jail … to Go to Prison?!

Posted on July 7, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Remember a few days ago when people were still talking about how far Amber Portwood has come, and how she’s doing so much better these days? Things change so quickly, don’t they? To be fair, it’s not that difficult to see why so many people thought that the Indiana native had turned her life around. In the early days of Teen Mom, going back a decade at this point, she was on drugs. Like, insanely hard drugs. She was high all the time, didn’t treat her mental illnesses, and assaulted Gary Shirley in front of their daughter, Leah. Eventually she went to prison for a whole lot of things – drug stuff, plus that previously mentioned domestic violence. She served 17 months of a five-year sentence. Seventeen months. Nearly a year and a half of her life behind bars. When she was released, she talked a lot about how much she’d changed, but it was hard to buy that for some time. After all, she was with mega douche Matt Baier (below). It was also hard to believe she was clean when she kept drinking with Baier, an addict with his own suspect past. After  her truly bizarre appearance on Marriage Boot Camp , many people believed she was back on drugs as well. Then, after leaving the Marriage Boot Camp set, she got with Andrew Glennon, a crew member on the show. Yeah. Her life has been a roller coaster to say the least, and the biggest twists and turns were yet to come … Within literal days of starting their relationship, she was pregnant, but here’s where things seemed to take a turn. After she gave birth to their son, James, it was very noticeable how different she was with him compared to years past. Looking back on Leah when she was a baby, and how Amber responded, it was like watching a different person. In a positive way. It appeared, at least to us, like Andrew did a great job of calming her down and helping her deal with her anger problems. He also helped her with her postpartum depression . “Wow, that Andrew is so good for her,” more than a few Teen Mom fans expressed in recent years. “She’s so different!” Turns out, not so much. Early Friday morning, Amber was arrested for domestic battery  following an incident that was concerning to say the least. We still don’t have the full story, but around 3:00 a.m., Andrew was holding James and Amber allegedly assaulted him. He sent a text to 911, a cool new feature in their state, and the responder called police, saying: “I received a text message from someone saying that their life and their son’s life is in danger.” A few hours later, police arrived to arrest the 29-year-old reality star, and she was taken to the local jail to be processed. She stayed there all day, and there was some speculation that since the domestic battery charge was a felony, she’d stay there until Monday morning when she could see a judge. Not so! She was finally released yesterday afternoon after being bonded out – all in all, she spent right around a day and a half behind bars. She still has to see a judge on Monday morning, specifically at 8:30. Now, we’re not legal experts or psychics or anything like that, but still, we get a feeling that this isn’t going to go so well. Remember, this isn’t the first time Amber’s been arrested for domestic violence. Years ago, she was originally arrested on three counts of this same act, and sentenced to probation. When she violated that probation, that’s when she went to prison before. Indiana, where she lives, is one of the states that has the “three strike law,” which should truly terrify her. Essentially, if a person is convicted of a violent felony multiple times, they’ll have to serve the full sentence the third time around. View Slideshow: Amber Portwood: I’m Suicidal and It’s MTV’s Fault! Considering that the full sentence for a repeat offender wouldn’t be a light one in all likelihood, that makes it pretty clear that they take crimes like these seriously, don’t you think? We’ll have to wait until tomorrow to get an update on what’s happening, but in the meantime, maybe we’ll get a day of rest in the midst of all this Teen Mom drama . Eh, probably not. But we can can dream, right? View Slideshow: Amber Portwood: I Wanted to Hang Myself After Giving Birth!

Joy-Anna Duggar Bashed for Sharing Photos with Stillborn Baby

Posted on July 7, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Just a few days ago, Joy-Anna Duggar and her husband, Austin Forsyth, shared some unbelievably tragic news: When they went in for the 20 week scan for Joy-Anna’s pregnancy, the doctor couldn’t detect a heartbeat. Miscarriages typically happen during the first trimester, but for some reason, Joy had one halfway through the gestation – and it was clear that she and Austin were absolutely devastated by the news. Thankfully, as they explained in their social media posts about the news, they’ve been able to find some solace in their faith. “Although we don’t understand why,” they wrote, “God has given us unexplainable peace and comfort during this very difficult time.” “Yes, it still hurts and we have cried countless tears, but we know that we can trust the Lord.” They also revealed that during the scan, they learned that they were going to have a daughter , and that they named her Annabell Elise. As for the meaning behind the name choice, they said “Annabell means ‘God has favored me,’ and Elise means ‘God satisfies.'” “What a precious thing to know that when our daughter opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the face of Jesus.” Along with their written post, they also shared a photo of Joy in a hospital bed with Austin comforting her. The next day, they shared even more photos, including some with their late daughter . Those are the ones we’re going to be discussing today. In the caption of the photos, Joy wrote “We only had her for 20 weeks, Life is fragile and precious.” “So thankful the Lord gave her to us for that short time! She will be in our hearts forever!” She also thanked her followers for their love and support, and her best friend, Carlin Bates, “for coming to town to be here for me and for doing my hair and makeup for pictures with our little girl!” They didn’t share a photo of Annabell — the most you can see of her is a hat covering her head as Joy holds her. But because she was in the photos at all, and because of Joy’s comments about having her hair and makeup done, a lot of people are feeling a lot of feelings about all of this. As one of their followers said, “This is a very private moment for y’all to be sharing it … sad. Y’all are different.” “OK, that needed to be a private moment,” another Instagram user agreed. “Not something that you get your hair and makeup done and dress up a miscarriage. We are all praying for you but REALLY. Get real!” One person went a step further, commenting “Honestly it seems a little sadistic to me to have a full on photo shoot with a deceased baby, just for likes on the internet. I could never.” Another particularly insensitive comment read “Hair and makeup to take pics with your dead baby?! Jesus sweetheart your families priorities are disgusting.” These are just a small sampling of the comments on Joy and Austin’s Instagram post, but similar things were said in several places across the internet where the Duggars are discussed. And it’s honestly not OK. The loss that Joy has experienced is huge, and one that not everyone will go through. You can judge the Duggars for all sorts of things, but you can’t judge them for she’s grieving now. It’s not uncommon for people to do photo shoots like these to remember the only time they’ll be able to see and hold their child, and if Joy wanted to look nice for such an unimaginably tragic occasion, what harm does it really do? Besides, so many women have already thanked her for, as they see it, being brave enough to share such personal photos because they too have had similar losses, and it’s nice to know they’re not alone. Some may have a hard time looking at these photos, and that’s understandable. View Slideshow: 33 Stars Who Have Suffered a Miscarriage Others may not be able to comprehend why she’d want these photos, let alone why she’d want to share them with thousands upon thousands of strangers, and that’s fine too. But we can let the girl grieve, can’t we?

Adam Sandler Pens Heartfelt Tribute to Cameron Boyce

Posted on July 7, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Hollywood is reacting in shock and sorrow to the death of a young actor today. As previously reported,  Cameron Boyce is dead at the very young age of 20. The Disney Channel star, best known for roles in Jessie and Descendents, passed away in his sleep after suffering a seizure. “It is with a profoundly heavy heart that we report that this morning we lost Cameron,” the actor’s family said in a statement on Sunday, adding in awful detail: He passed away in his sleep due to a seizure which was a result of an ongoing medical condition for which he was being treated. The world is now undoubtedly without one of its brightest lights, but his spirit will live on through the kindness and compassion of all who knew and loved him. We are utterly heartbroken and ask for privacy during this immensely difficult time as we grieve the loss of our precious son and brother. In the wake of this tragic news going viral, a number of stars have taken to social media to express their sadness and send their condolences. And one of the most prominent tributes was penned by Adam Sandler. “Too young. Too sweet. Too funny. Just the nicest, most talented, and and most decent kid around,” Sandler wrote on Twitter. He appeared opposite Boyce in both Grown Ups and Grown Ups 2. Added the long-time star: “Loved that kid. Cared so much about his family. Cared so much about the world. Thank you, Cameron, for all you gave to us. So much more was on the way. All our hearts are broken. Thinking of your amazing family and sending our deepest condolences.” Just so heartbreaking all around. Elsewhere, director Kenny Ortega penned the following on Instagram: My Love, Light and Prayers go out to Cameron and his Family. Cameron brought Love, Laughter and Compassion with him everyday I was in his presence. His talent, immeasurable. His kindness and generosity, overflowing. It has been an indescribable honor and pleasure to know and work with him. I will see you again in all things loving and beautiful my friend. I will search the stars for your light. Rest In Peace Cam. You will always be My Forever Boy. There was also the following from Charles Esten, who appeared on Jessie as Boyce’s character’s dad. “My family and I are devastated today, by the loss of our young and amazing friend, Cameron Boyce. Years before I was blessed to play his father on JESSIE, we were blessed to know him and his wonderful family at the elementary school our kids all attended together,” the Nashville alum began in a series of Tweets. He continued: “It was there we were introduced to his endless talent, kindness, and joy for living. At his very 1st talent show, little Cameron’s dancing lit up the stage, and left everyone on their feet, cheering. “It was clear to all that he was destined to be the star he would soon become. And yet, Cameron never carried himself with anything but kindness, humility, effortless grace, and great humor. “Even as his star ascended with JESSIE, and he began to receive the type of fame that can change people, I never saw that change. Not even a little.” And this from actress and Disney Channel co-star Skai Jackson: “I don’t even know where to start… I am at a loss for words. I never thought in a million years I would be writing this. “Cam, you were one of a kind. My heart will be forever broken. I am so happy that I got to spend almost everyday with you on set, you gave the best hugs. I wish I would have hugged you tighter when I saw you a couple of months ago. “Thank you so much for being the big brother I never had… I am so distraught and I cannot stop crying! I love you so much… fly high, Gods best Angel.” Boyce made his acting debut at the age of nine and then was cast in Grown Ups at the age of 11. We’ll conclude this post with these words from Gregg Sulkin: Heartbroken. Lost for words. I had known Cameron Boyce for many years. He was always polite. Always respectful and always a class act. In fact I was going to message him a couple weeks ago to tell him that I wanted to be in each other’s lives more. Now I wish I had sent that message. Just so he personally knew how highly I thought of him and how much admiration I had for him. My heart goes out to his family & his close friends. Cameron, you were and still are a star. May god bless you in heaven. You will be missed down here. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2019: In Memoriam
