Alana Thompson: I Won’t Live With Mama June Until Geno Doak is GONE

June Shannon and her gross boyfriend Geno Doak had been living in hotels and even a casino during this latest crisis. But now, Mama June has returned home — to an otherwise empty nest. Her famous daughter, Alana, is refusing to come home. She says she won’t return to the house while Geno is there. In August of 2018, Honey Boo Boo turned 13 . Wild that she’s a teenager, now. She fled the house after June and Geno’s crack cocaine arrests, but she’s not old enough to live on her own. Instead, she’s been living with Pumpkin, her sister. That was for the best, because June spent time living in various rented rooms with Geno. But now that she’s come home, Alana isn’t budging. TMZ reports that Alana Thompson will not return to her mother’s home under present circumstances. She’d like to return home, and she loves her mother a lot. But there’s a roadblock preventing that sweet reunion, and his name is Geno Doak. Sources tell TMZ that as long as Geno is still hanging around the Shannon residence, Alana wouldn’t feel safe being there. What Alana would like is for her troubled mother to give her useless cheating boyfriend the boot — and then take herself to rehab. There’s more than just Geno’s arrest for crack cocaine and domestic violence that has Alana justifiably concerned. Just days ago, we all saw that harrowing video in which Geno crashed his car into June’s house and emerged mostly naked. The aftermath was filmed by a neighbor, who observed June as she tried and failed to usher Geno into the house. “Honey Boo Boo’s mama [has] got on a damn see-through gown,” the neighbor’s voice can be heard observing. Eventually, June had to get help to move her useless lump of a boyfriend into the house. Alana is still a minor, and some fans worry that her boycott will backfire — and that June will just try to force her to come home. But TMZ ‘s sources tell them that Pumpkin is prepared to fight to keep her sister safe from the chaos, the drugs, the drama, and worse. Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon is reportedly willing to take her mom to court to keep Alana out of that maelstrom. She’ll do it even if it means obtaining legal custody of her own sister. The bittersweet news is that June, as of yet, hasn’t expressed any real interest in bringing Alana back home. Maybe that’s good news — that on some level, June knows that Alana is better off with Pumpkin than being around Geno (or her, at the moment). Maybe it’s bad news, because June is just too wrapped up in Geno’s apparently irresistible charms to care about her actual family. After all, that bizarre obsession is what made June refuse to listen at her own intervention. Her own daughter begged her to get help out of fear that she might die, but June adamantly refused any inpatient treatment. Pumpkin had to explain to viewers what was stopping June: fear. June worried that if she couldn’t watch Geno for every minute, he would cheat on her (some more), or maybe even leave her. Obviously, no man who would cheat in the first place is worth risking your life just to supervise, but that’s what June is doing. And it may cost her months or even years with her daughter. This is an all-around pitiful situation. View Slideshow: June Shannon: Living Out of Vile Hotel Rooms with Crazy BF Geno After Crack Arrest!?

Meghan Markle’s Deleted Instagram Revealed: Booze, Boyfriends & Bedroom Selfies!

These days, Meghan Markle is one of the most famous women on the planet — a household name all over the world. But it wasn't all that long ago that the Duchess of Sussex was an actress on a basic cable legal drama, eager to reach the next level of fame and influence. Like just about every young media figure, Meghan had an Instagram account with a sizable following. In keeping with royal standards of decorum, she deleted the page before her relationship with Prince Harry became public knowledge. But nothing on the internet ever truly disappears, and some of Meg's most memorable posts have recently resurfaced. Take a look: 1. Meg In Bed Meghan never posted anything terribly racy to her IG. Still, her royal in-laws probably wouldn’t be thrilled to learn she shared this bedroom selfie with her 3 million followers. 2. Road Beers During her tenure on Suits, Meg was also the proprietor of a lifestyle blog called The Tig. Which meant her downtime was spent living the high life and bringing her followers along on the journey. 3. A Sultry Selfie Meg certainly knew how to serve looks in her acting days. We’re sure she still does, but her days of posting selfies for public consumption have sadly come to an end. 4. Bed Again Again, nothing terribly racy about this photo. But we’re sure the Queen and company would object to a royal posting a selfie in bed. 5. Cheers to Meg Meg seemed to greatly enjoy her life pre-royalty. Of course, we’re sure she’s pretty damn happy these days, as well. 6. Good In Bed Don’t get too excited. This is just a photo that Meg posted of some suggestive packaging for a set of pajamas.

Bella Thorne to Whoopi Goldberg: Stop Blaming Girls for Hacked Pics!

After some disgusting hacker accessed her private photos,  Bella Thorne shared her own pics  to rob her blackmailer of any power over her. It was a courageous move, but unfortunately, Whoopi Goldberg used her time on  The View  to victim-blame Bella. Whoopi scolded her for photographing her body at all, but now Bella is tastefully clapping back. Whoopi had a truly appalling response to Bella Thorne's photos being hacked. “If you're famous,” she admonishes on The View . “I don't care how old you are, you don't take nude pictures of yourself.” Sunny Hostin attempts to interject, but Whoopi barrels on. “Listen,” Whoopi demands. “When they're hacking you, they're hacking all of your stuff.” “So whether it's one picture or a million pictures,” she continues. “Once you take that picture, it goes into the cloud.” “And it's available to any hacker who wants it!” Whoopi says. “You don't know that? In 2019? That this is an issue?” she unfortunately continues. “I'm sorry … you don't get to do that,” Whoopi admonishes. Almost every part of what Whoopi just said is wrong — both morally and factually. Bella saw Whoopi's tirade and had some words of her own. Bella took to her Instagram Stories and, through tears, clapped back at Whoopi. “Dear Whoopi, I have loved you for so long,” Bella begins. “But honestly,” she admits. “I'm so displeased and saddened by your response to my leak.” “Blaming girls for taking the photo in the first place? Is sick and honestly disgusting,” Bella states. She adds: “I'm offended for anyone out there who has ever taken a sexy photo.” “I am offended for Jennifer Lawrence,” Bella notes. “Who feels publicly raped.” “I am offended for every person who has committed suicide for someone leaking their nudes,” she expresses. “Ur view on this matter is honestly awful,” Bella correctly assesses. “And,” she replies. “I hope u change ur mindset as u are a show talking to young girls.” “I'm not going to lie, I want to say I feel pretty disgusting, Whoopi, knowing everyone's seen my s–t,” Bella admits. She shouldn't feel disgusting, but that's the effect that vile hackers can have upon their victims. “And I just want to say that me watching this interview made me feel really bad about myself,” she adds. “And I hope you're happy. I really do,”  “I really hope you're so f–king happy,” Bella expresses. “Because I can only imagine all the kids who have their s–t released and then they commit suicide.” “So,” she laments. “You're so crazy for thinking such terrible things on such an awful situation.” “Shame on you, Whoopi,” Bella admonishes. “Shame on you,” she repeats. “And shame on you for putting that public opinion just out there like that.” People voicing these toxic opinions furthers pernicious cultural forces like rape culture, slut-shaming, and victim-blaming. Bella is upset that Whoopi said those words “for every young girl to think that they're disgusting for even taking a photo like that.” Now, Bella may have pushed things a little far by mentioned people who have committed suicide. Yes, some people who were similarly blackmailed with their own nudes have taken their lives. But they're usually minors, not celebs. But Bella's point still holds up — that Whoopi is placing the blame on the wrong person. Owning a television or jewelry does not make you foolish, even if those things get stolen. Having a body, no matter how you're dressed (or not dressed), does not justify sexual assault. And yes, even famous people can take photos of themselves — and it's never their fault if those photos are hacked or shared. We also mentioned that Whoopi was factually mistaken. You actually don't have to save all of your photos to cloud storage. Having backups is smart, but many phones have the option of keeping your photos secure. If you're sending your pictures to someone, it's smart to make sure that they, too, are not backing up photos on the cloud. But even if you don't take that safety step, the only person to blame for stealing or sharing your nudes is the person who steals or shares them.

Jed Wyatt: Bachelorette Frontrunner Had a Girlfriend the Whole Time!!!

We have been quite suspicious of current contestant Jed Wyatt on The Bachelorette .  But now we are just beyond over him.  After the singer/songwriter boldly opened up to Hannah Brown about why he really signed up for the popular dating show, she thanked him for his honesty. He may not have signed up for the right reasons, as he admitted it was to further his music career, but he now swears that he is completely ready for an engagement. Some viewers may have been able to look past Jed’s shady confession, but for those who still continue to doubt his motives, well good job — you are highly intuitive.  And now that this shocking story has surfaced, I bet we can all agree that he has to go. Apparently, Jed was still in a relationship  when he went on to the show.  Yes, he should’ve been immediately booted out right along with fellow contestant Scott who was also coupled up prior to meeting Hannah.  (AKA their possible future fiance?! What are these men thinking?!)  Wyatt was allegedly four months into a relationship with fellow Nashville-based musician Haley Stevens when he first left to find love  (or followers) on the reality show. Stevens recently told  People about her devastating situation, while giving us all the tea on two-timing Jed.  “We spent the night together the night before he headed to L.A.,” she said, opening up publicly about their romance for the first time.  “He told me [the show] was just an obstacle and we’d be stronger on the other side because of it.” Stevens says Wyatt was completely clear with his motives for going on the show, which he applied to before they started dating.  “He told me [early on] that he had applied,” says Stevens, 26.  “He said, ‘It’s probably not going to happen, but it’s a huge opportunity. I’m only doing this for my music.'” “He only did it for his career,” she said.  Stevens continued explaining that she was under the impression that he just wanted a platform.  “He kept telling me, ‘I don’t want my dad to have to help me pay rent anymore.'” “He said he only wanted to be top five… to be a major player so that it would be beneficial,” she explained. And yes Jed may have already explained all of this to Hannah, but we all know she would have gone total beast mode and thrown him out of the mansion immediately If she knew the real truth.  As for Haley, she wasn’t worried about him dating another woman at the time because he reassured her saying, “It’s not real. It’s acting.” Even after Wyatt got the call in February that he was officially joining the cast of the show, the two took a romantic vacation to the Bahamas, where they said ‘I love you’ for the first time.  According to People , the last time Stevens and Wyatt spoke was right before he began filming.  “He called me when he landed in L.A. He said, ‘I love you, and I’ll call you when I get back,'” she said.  Bachelor rules state that all contestants must give up their cell phones during filming, so Stevens obviously grew nervous.  The poor girl had to read through spoilers and actually suffer through watching the show just to see what was going on with her man.  “I was following along on spoiler accounts, trying to figure out when my boyfriend was going to come home,” she said.  “I bought a homecoming outfit that I was going to wear to maybe pick him up at the airport.” But as Jed and Hannah’s relationship continued to advance, she began to panic. “I was terrified that he would fall in love with Hannah,” she confessed.  “In the beginning, I felt bad [watching the show] because I thought he loved me and was faking dating her.” “But then I thought, my boyfriend could be engaged to someone else”… “Seeing him kissing her for the first time was the worst day,” she explained.  Wow. what a terrible situation for both Hannah and Haley.  Let’s all cross our fingers in hopes that it isn’t Jed who gets down on one knee at the end of this. (please be Peter)  Either way, we hope Jed’s music career was worth it because pretty sure he is about to have like 0 fans now.  View Slideshow: Hannah Brown: All of the New Bachelorette’s Ex-Boyfriends Revealed!

Meghan Markle: Refusing to "Bow Down" to Queen & Kate Middleton?

Just when you thought the talk of a feud between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton had finally died out, along comes yet another report of Meg rocking the boat. Yes, get ready to be annoyed by fussiness over an outdated institution, ladies and gentlemen, because we have new accusations that Meghan is violating royal protocol ! In the past, we’ve heard allegations of Meghan failing to curtsy properly and just generally eliciting widespread pearl-clutching across the UK. Now, it seems like the stuffiest royal traditionalists might want to hold on to their heart meds and prepare to pop their monocles, as Meg has reportedly arrived at the very obvious conclusion that the entire concept of a royal family is, in fact, quite dumb. Or at the very least, she’s fed up with abiding by rules that infringe on her individuality. According to a new report from Radar Online, the Duchess of Sussex is sick of being the low woman on the totem pole and she’s now “fighting for equality” within the Windsor clan and refusing to “bow down” to her superiors. We’re guessing that means Kate and the Queen because that’s usually how these stories play out.   “Meghan and Harry feel that the rules and regulations in connection with royal protocol are antiquated to forward-thinking millennials,” says one insider. “Meghan and Harry respect tradition but want the freedom to do their own work and promote their causes without being held back by any constraints.” First, they came for breakfast cereals, mortgages, and bar soap, and now millennials are killing the royal family!  Though it sounds like Meghan is locking horns with her in-laws, the insider insists her objections have more to do with the work she plans to do going forward: “This is the real point of contention and it has nothing to do with Meghan versus Kate or Harry versus William,” the source claims. “Meghan has big ambition and lofty goals and feels it is unfair that her unrelenting work ethic is being stifled because the others can’t keep up with her.” Meghan is on maternity leave at the moment, having welcomed her first child just last month. But the informant says she’s already planning to accomplish some big things once she returns to duchess duty later this year. “It’s not a competition to Meghan, it’s about working hard and delivering results and that is what she is laser focused on,” says the insider. “Expect her to make a huge comeback after her maternity leave ends. You will see her everywhere and she is already booked out through 2021.” We suppose we’ll just have to wait and see what Meghan has in store. It’s probably some sort of laudable philanthropic endeavor, but we’re deeply petty people, so we’re sort of hoping she announces a Most Popular Duchess contest and starts barnstorming all over the British empire.

Devin Harris Weighs in on Douchey Zealot Luke Parker: Is It an Act?

The Bachelor Nation doesn’t have to follow The Bachelorette Spoilers to know that Luke Parker is the absolute worst . We’ve all seen that creepy promo where Luke slut-shames Hannah. Now, Bachelorette castoff Devin is discussing what he saw of Luke behind the scenes — and how the holier-than-thou act may just be an act. Entertainment Tonight spoke with Devin Harris about what Luke Parker is really like. Is he a zealot or just a douche? “He is very fickle and flippy floppy,” Devin assesses. “In terms of the way that he moves throughout the season.” “Weirdly enough,” he remarks of Luke P. “When it was the guys, he’s cool enough.” “But once Hannah becomes involved,” Devin observes. “He becomes very manipulative. … ” He then comments: “I think he has douchey tendencies.” Then he gets into that disturbing scene where Luke talks about keeping “the marriage bed pure,” like a total creep. Devin remarks: “He never spoke about those types of dynamics with us.” “I think that ultimately, if Luke is following a path like that,” he expresses. “It’s important to remember that… God’s accepting.” “He’s an accepting person,” Devin emphasizes. “So I don’t know if really — and I’ll put this out there — I don’t know if it’s a facade,” he suggests. Now that’s a thought. “He’s saying he follows a certain path,” Devin continues. “That’s fine.” “But I don’t think that passing judgment on somebody is the kindest thing you can do,” he states. Devin is correct. He says that this is true “especially in relationships, when it’s about accepting someone’s flaws or challenges.” “That’s how you get to know somebody,” Devin notes. “You accept those because you accept that person.” Devin points out that even Luke P has admitted to acting a certain way on camera. So once again, he brings up that the audience — and Hannah — don’t truly know how much of this is fakery. “I think there is an aspect of facade that he is portraying,” Devin suggests. So which part is fake? What is the real Luke like? What does he hope to gain by acting like a douchey wingnut? Devin admits to being as in the dark as the rest of us, saying: “I guess that’s what we’re all trying to figure out!” Chris Harrison delved into Hannah’s very firm and wisely independent attitude. He quotes Hannah: “‘No matter what you believe, my body, my choice, my life, and if you don’t like it, there’s the door.'” “‘Don’t let it hit you in the a** on the way out.’ That’s how she approaches all the men,” he explains. “She’s very vulnerable and emotional,” Chris observes. “But don’t you dare cross her and question her decisions.” He explains: “because this is her life and you’ve got to respect that.” Now, Chris Harrison has also stated that he thinks that upcoming events will be polarizing among viewers. It may depend upon their views of religion and sexuality. That makes sense — there are lots of opinions within Christian circles, and then a whole spectrum of non-Christian views. But the only opinion that matters at the end of the day is Hannah’s. Like she says, it’s her body. The big question is what Luke could possibly hope to gain from whatever facade he may be putting on. Maybe Devin’s wrong and he’s just a fanatic. Or maybe … he’s fishing to launch a career. Plenty of washed out actors have launched new careers as conservative commentators in recent years. Maybe Luke is treating this show as an audition for that? If so, he’s doing a real disservice to Hannah. View Slideshow: The Bachelorette Spoilers: Check Out the Lucky Guy Who Wins Hannah’s Heart!

Ensley Eason: Is Jenelle Evans’ Daughter Miserable Without Her?

As you’ve likely heard by now, Jenelle Evans has lost custody of all of her children . It was a long overdue development that happened both gradually and abruptly. It was abrupt in the sense that CPS swooped in and removed the kids from Jenelle and David Eason’s home shortly after Eason shot and killed the family dog , thus prompting an investigation that revealed unsuitable living conditions. But the newly desolate conditions on The Land were also a long time in the making, as Jenelle had long ago lost custody of her eldest son, Jace, and David has a son hasn’t been permitted to see in years. Jace has been living with Barbara Evans since he was a baby, so even though Babs raised Jenelle, we can safely assume that she is capable of properly raising a child. These days, Jenelle’s 2-year-old daughter Ensley is also under Babs’ care. And for reasons that aren’t entirely clear, many believe the child is miserable at her grandmother’s home. Take, for example, the comments on a recent photo of Babs’ adoptive kids. “Myrtle Beach and I was not at the Winery,” Barbara captioned the pic. “Cardboard cutouts all over Broadway at the beach,” she added. Sounds innocent enough, right? Just a wholesome day of family fun (the guy in the pic is Jenelle’s brother Colin). Well, not in the eyes of some fans, who zeroed in on Ensley’s expression and took it as a sign that the toddler is being mistreated. “Poor Ensley looks so sad!!” wrote one follower. “Ensley looks like she’s worried about the potential crisis in the Middle East,” another person commented. “Poor little thing. It’s great how I can read minds on IG though, right?” another fan sarcastically quipped. Another Instagram user took the situation very seriously, writing: “I can’t help it … Ensley looks so unhappy. Something is not right!” And this, folks, is a prime example of the internet at its very worst. We’re sure some of these people think they’re helping, but really, they’re just drawing wild conclusions based on very little evidence. We’re sure the past few weeks have been very stressful for Ensley. But that doesn’t mean Babs is neglecting her or Jenelle was secretly some kind of super mom. Being placed in a new home would be stressful for any kid, but the authorities wouldn’t have done it if they didn’t consider it absolutely necessary. Fortunately, the majority of fans saw the situation for what it was and realized that 2-year-olds just get cranky sometimes: “She was probably just tired and [needs] a nap!!” one person commented. “Those kids are so lucky to have you in their lives!” someone else wrote before asking the valid question” “Where should they be if you weren’t there?  “Hey no judgment!! You stepped up when Jenelle couldn’t take care of her kids!” Eventually, Babs chimed in with an explanation for Ensley’s sour expression: “She’s hot, tired and on our way to eat.” She’s probably also sick of internet strangers psychoanalyzing her on the basis of a single photo!

Amy Roloff Trashes Ex-Husband: He’s a Bully!

Amy Roloff is truly holding nothing back in her new memoir. Especially when it comes to her ex-husband, Matt Roloff. Over the past three years, Amy and Matt have navigated the post-divorce waters as well as two people possibly can, co-starring together on Little People, Big World and running the family farm as business owners. They’ve almost never said anything negative about each other in public. But Amy said in an interview a few weeks ago that Matt cheated on her with Caryn Chander , and then she went into even more scandalous detail in her aforementioned book. The book is titled A Little Me and it features a chapter in which Amy lists all the inappropriate ways Matt acted during their marriage when it came to Caryn. She accuses him of sending her photos and text messages and hanging out with her in ways that one should really NOT do when one is married. Now, in further excerpts from this same memoir, we see other issues Amy had with Matt back when they were a couple. Specifically, his general attitude toward her and the way he made her feel as a person. “Many discussions I had with Matt eventually made me feel less than,” Amy writes about her 27-year union in her memoir. “He may not have meant or realized how his words, businesslike attitude, and lack of compassion affected our relationship and me. “But they did.” Yikes, huh? That’s almost the worst way a spouse can make his or her companion feel. Less than . Added Amy: “His words stayed in my mind and played with my emotions, and I sometimes became intimidated by Matt with his strong and domineering personality. “I just didn’t get the support and encouragement.” On the latest season of Little People, Big World, Amy called out Matt for the way he bullied her during the pair’s debate over whether or not to sell their family’s farm. “Matt has a strong personality, and one that I’ve adapted over the years we were together,” Amy said on an episode, echoing what she writes in her book and saying she had learned in the years since their divorce to take the following tact: “Stand your ground and don’t let life push you around, including Matt.” Amy – who announced her separation from Matt in 2014 after years of what she later called an “inappropriate” relationship between her husband and the then-family farm manager, Caryn – says she he often shut down her business ideas. She says he made “impulsive” family decisions without her consideration — and even tried to control to whom she spoke. “He believed we shouldn’t really talk to or trust any of the producers or crew because they didn’t really care about us,” she writes, adding very strangely: “We weren’t their priority, making a TV show was, and they’d say anything to appease us to get what they wanted. “It would be best if everyone in the family went through Matt about everything, and he would communicate with the production staff on our behalf and take care of everything.” Along this same topic, Amy concluded: “Matt would get upset if, after filming and off camera, I’d be talking to the producers. “I felt conflicted because he did it all the time. I wasn’t sure what the issue was about me doing the same.” Weird, right? Matt has not publicly responded to Amy’s recent accusations. It’s unclear whether or not he knew she would be writing all of this about their marriage. But we’re suddenly even more excited than we were before about the next season of Little People, Big World.

New Study Reveals Unmarried Women With No Kids Are The ‘Healthiest and Happiest Population Subgroup’

Source: Brand X Pictures / Getty Being a single woman gets a lot of bad rep, but there are so many beautiful benefits to the single life, and now there is a study to back it up.
