Even though Amber Portwood was arrested for domestic violence charges last month, she still enjoys a wealth of support, especially from her current and former Teen Mom Og co-stars. It's more than a little weird, as Amber stands accused of attacking Andrew Glennon with a machete while he was holding the her 1-year-old son, but hey — pretty much everything about the Teen Mom universe is weird as hell at this point. In fact, we reached the point where we thought nothing about this cast could surprise us. Until we learned that Amber and Farrah Abraham have become breast-baring besties. You can't make this stuff up, folks. Take a look: 1. The Throwdown It wasn’t all that long ago that Amber and Farrah nearly came to blows while shooting a Teen Mom OG reunion special. 2. Settling Their Differences But perhaps it should come as no surprise that Amber and Farrah have been able to find common ground. After all, they have an awful lot in common beyond the fact that they were both OG teen moms on Teen Mom OG. 3. In the Same League Both are thought to be the very worst moms to be featured on Teen Mom OG, and many believe they’re up there with Jenelle Evans in terms of the worst moms of the entire franchise. 4. Somehow … Of course, Farrah has never lost custody of her kid, so we guess Amber just took the lead in that competition. 5. Hard Times Yes, as you may have heard, Amber has lost custody of baby James following her attack on Andrew. 6. Sad Stuff In fact, a judge has ordered her to keep her distance from Andrew, and she’s only allowed to see James during supervised visits. View Slideshow
Todd Chrisley and his wife are ready to face the legal music. But will it result in them being entirely played off the celebrity stage? That’s the oddly-phrased question, folks. As previously detailed, Todd and Julie Chrisley were indicted yesterday on 12 counts of tax evasion and financial fraud, foremost among them: Wire fraud… conspiracy to commit bank fraud … and conspiracy to defraud the United States. Yikes , huh? The couple has been at the forefront of Chrisley Knows Best for seven seasons on USA Network. The series chronicles the rich and spoiled lives of Todd, Julie and their three children, all of whom are from Atlanta but now reside in Nashville. According to Radar Online, executives have chosen NOT to renew the contracts of these family members in the wake of this arrest, effectively canceling the series. But Todd and Julie obviously have far more important concerns at the moment. The reality stars have turned themselves into authorities, CNN confirms, and are currently in custody in Georgia. The couple surrendered early Wednesday morning, a spokesman for the attorney’s office tells CNN and TMZ, and are scheduled to attend a bond hearing later this afternoon. As for other pertinent details from this troubling case? The Chrisleys were hit with the multi-count indictment on Tuesday, alleging years of tax evasion, bank fraud, wire fraud and conspiracy between 2007 and 2012. The federal goverment claims the stars ran a scheme in which they swindled banks out of millions of dollars in loans by providing phony information, while also effing over the public in genderal by dodging federal taxes on the money they earned. Their accountant was indicted as well. If convicted on all counts, Todd and Julie could face 30 years in prison. “Todd and Julie Chrisley are charged not only with defrauding a number of banks by fraudulently obtaining millions of dollars in loans, but also with allegedly cheating taxpayers by actively evading paying federal taxes on the money they earned,” said U.S. Attorney Byung J. Pak, adding: “Celebrities face the same justice that everyone does. These are serious federal charges and they will have their day in court.” But Todd, who has supposedly sold his mansion out of desperation , sounds confident a convinction will never take place. Before the indictment was issued on Tuesday, he denied the allegations in a lenghty post on Instagram, implying the charges are based on evidence presented to investigators by a disgruntled former employee. Wrote Chrisley in his open letter: “I’ve never talked about this publicly before, but there’s been a cloud hanging over Julie and me and our entire family for the past seven years. It all started back in 2012, when we discovered that a trusted employee of ours had been stealing from us big time.” He went on to claim this was an act of revenge, explaining that this employee created “phony documents,” forged his signature and issuing threats to other employees related to the show if anything got out about his doings. Sounds like quite the vengeful and thought-out act, huh? If you believe it. “We even discovered that he illegally bugged our house,” Chrisley says. “I’m telling you all this because we have nothing to hide and have done nothing to be ashamed of. Not only do we know we’ve done nothing to be ashamed of. “Not only do we know we’ve done nothing wrong, but we’ve got a ton of hard evidence and a bunch of corroborating witnesses that prove it.” Todd concluded the post by asking for everyone’s prayers for he and his family. “We want to express our gratitude to everyone who helped place us where we are today in our lives. We thank you for your support and we will continue to work every day to earn your respect, loyalty and admiration.” View Slideshow: Savannah Chrisley: The Most Gorgeous Photos of USA’s Brightest Young Star!
Miley Cyrus separated from Liam Hemsworth and, shortly after that new broke, was spotted making out with Brody Jenner’s ex , Kaitlynn Carter. Now, Kaitlynn’s ex’s castmate, Brandon, is taking cheap shots at Miley and Kaitlynn for their apparent tryst. He now explains that he’s only giving them a hard time because he thinks that they’re fake. “Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today,” Brody advised his fans and followers in a thoughtful Instagram post. But his castmate, Brandon Thomas Lee, isn’t so eager to let go of the past. Naturally, he’s approaching the situation with humor in a very public comment. “Let’s round this scandal out and post a pic of us making out,” Brandon suggests. “Watch out!” Brody then warns. “Pics of Liam and I holding hands on the beach coming soon.” Miley saw this and had some advice for Brody, with whose ex she has been gal pal-ing around. “Go take a nap in your truck,” Miley advises. “And cool off.” She then captions: “#HotGirlSummer.” Hot Girl Summer has been a catchphrase this year for women yearning to enjoy their best lives, from having adventures to just plain getting laid. Miley has clearly been having quite the hot girl summer herself. On Daily Pop , Brandon explains exactly why he decided that Miley and Kaitlynn’s quality time with each other is so entertaining. “I was just like, ‘This is getting out of hand,'” Brandon expresses. He continues: “This whole thing is just so, like — I don’t know.” “I didn’t even want to get involved with it,” Brandon confesses. He then shares his own theory: “It just seems so fake to me.” “It’s just like — why?” Brandon continues, expressing his bewilderment at everyone’s behavior. He believes that it can all be explained: “They’re just obviously messing with their two ex-husbands.” “And they’re all friends,” Brandon points out. “So, it’s like, they were all friends. So, why — it just seems so ridiculous to me.” He then found a little shade to throw in Miley’s direction. “I was just curious as of why this blew up so much,” Brandon confesses. “And I forgot Miley has so many fans.” Way harsh, dude. Now, Brandon isn’t claiming to have any special inside knowledge here. He’s just pointing out that, well, it looks like Miley and Kaitlynn are boosting each other in the news, not boffing each other. That would certainly pull one over on their exes and possibly help their brands. Some have accused Brandon’s suspicions of being inherently homophobic or biphobic. I’m going to have to disagree, there — he could 100% be saying the same thing if it were Liam and Kaitlynn making out. Miley and Liam first became an item way back in 2008 when they worked together. Several years later, they became engaged … only to drop the engagement. Miley went through a dramatic rebirth and rebranding (maybe a couple of them). Longtime fans were overjoyed when they reunited and resumed their engagement, and were over the moon when the two finally got married. But now, Miley and Liam have separated after about eight months of marriage. It may be some time before the dust settled enough for the world to know exactly what broke them up.
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth may have made passionate love for many years as a steady and strong couple. But the stars are no longer making nice. Not a few days after the announcement of their shocking split , not after conflicting reports have emerged in regard to where this long-term relationship went so tragically wrong. This past Saturday evening, a rep for the singer issued the usual sort of confirmation one makes after one’s client ends a serious romance. “Liam and Miley have agreed to separate at this time,” this rep told People Magazine, adding at the time: “Ever-evolving, changing as partners and individuals, they have decided this is what’s best while they both focus on themselves and careers. They still remain dedicated parents to all of their animals they share while lovingly taking this time apart. “Please respect their process and privacy.” LOL over this last part, right? At almost the same time this announcement was made, photos of Miley kissing Kaitlynn Carter in Italy emerged. She’s the ex-wife of reality star Brody Jenner and, yes, she’s a woman. Did Cyrus actually cheat on Hemsworth ? Was there trouble in married paradise long before this same-sex lip-lock? Was Miley just sick of boning Liam every night ? As you might expect, many questions have been floating around the Internet in regard to this split, with TMZ now reporting that things have turned VERY ugly between the exes. The accusations are just flying back and forth. THIS IS WHAT MILEY’S SIDE IS ALLEGING: The singer did all she could to save the marriage. She encouraged couple’s therapy and she was willing to work on the failing aspects of the relationship — but Hemsworth was drinking a ton and using various drugs. Especially due to her own history of substance abuse, Cyrus wanted no part of any of this. So there’s that. THIS IS WHAT LIAM’S SIDE IS ALLEGING: All those charges listed above are total and complete malarkey. What really transpired here? Miley cheated with Carter. “This is another attempt by Miley to distract from her infidelity and recent outrageous public behavior,” an insider close to Hemsworth tells TMZ, further muddying the waters of this break-up. The couple got married in December after dating on and off for about 10 years. Cyrus, however, recently gave an interview in which she bristled over the term wife and made it clear she is still very attracted to women. To be clear, neither Miley nor Liam has leveled any of the accusations described here. These all came from anonymous sources. Earlier this week, both celebrities issues vague/profound/amicable statements of their own in response to the split, starting with this from Cyrus: Don’t fight evolution, because you will never win. Like the mountain I am standing on top of , which was once under water , connected with Africa, change is inevitable. The Dolomites were not created over night, it was over millions of years that this magnificent beauty was formed. My dad always told me “ Nature never hurries but it is always on time”…. it fills my heart with peace and hope KNOWING that is true. I was taught to respect the planet and its process and I am committed to doing the same with my own… And then this from Liam: Hi all. Just a quick note to say that Miley and I have recently separated and I wish her nothing but health and happiness going forward. This is a private matter and I have not made, nor will I be making, any comments to any journalists or media outlets. Any reported quotes attributed to me are false. Peace and Love.

Believe it or not, it's been three months since Jenelle Evans was fired from Teen Mom 2 . For many fans, the reality that Evans is no longer a part of the show will only dawn on them when a new season premieres with Jade Cline in her place . But it seems that for Jenelle, the truth of her sad situation is already hitting home. The bad news is, she still appears to have several revenue streams available to her. The good news is, they're drying up rapidly. Take a look: 1. Sponsored Content Jenelle has hawked just about every type of product imaginable on her Instagram page. And she’s grown increasingly desperate since getting fired. 2. Clickbait Evans’ most lucrative hustle these days is posting clickbait tabloid articles about her former castmates. 3. Mouths to Feed We guess it’s not entirely Jenelle’s fault. After all, she has kids to raise and an unemployed husband. What’s she supposed to do, get a real job? Make David go to work?! 4. Editor’s Note: (Before you go roasting us in the comments section, please note that we’re being sarcastic. Jenelle and David should both get real jobs ASAP.) 5. The Clock Is Ticking Yes, the stakes are high, and the window of opportunity is narrow. Sure, right now Jenelle has a big enough social media following that she can rake in the bucks from sponsored posts — but that might not be the case for long. 6. Irons In the Fire To her credit, Evans seems to realize this, which is why she and David are launching businesses like it’s going out of style these days. View Slideshow
Welp. That sure got ugly in a hurry. On Tuesday night’s intense episode of Bachelor in Paradise, two contestants got into a legitimate fight — and here’s the truly shocking part… … neither of these contestants was Blake. Indeed, the polarizing sex fiend who has been at the center of most Season 6 installments to date mostly sat this one out last night. Hence why his face was left without a scratch on it at the end of the two hours. The same can’t be said for Jordan Kimball and Christian Estrada. How did this all begin? With Christian not wasting any time asking out Nicole Lopez-Alvar, as all viewers witnessed the instant chemisty between these two. What about Clay Harbor, who was concerned that the only woman in which he interested in was slipping away? Nicole believed Clay to be overly passive… yet he earned an opportunity to show his slightly more assertive side when Christian attempted to steal Nicole again after their date. The guys strangely held hands as they argued over who she should get to spend time with her, only for Nicole to eventually choose Clay, who admitted to being “jittery” after this confrontation. Got it? Following along so far? Okay then… it’s now time to talk about Jordan. He already had beef with Christian prior to Bachelor for Paradise. And then Christian set up a piñata for Nicole during the cocktail party and, after Christian told Clay to go away, Jordan felt an urge to stand up for his friend. Therefore, he tried to take down the piñata, resulting in an actual fight between him and Christian. “Don’t touch my pinata,” said Christian, who had only just been trying to convince Nicole he’s a sweet guy. He then grabbed Jordan, and Jordan grabbed him, and then that’s all we got because ABC got a “to be continued” in order to tease the fallout that will air next week. BOOOOO!!!!!! Watch Bachelor in Paradise Season 6 Episode 4 Online Elsewhere, Dylan Barbour struggled to comprehend why Hannah Godwin was willing to give Blake Horstmann a chance in any way, shape or form. He pressed her about her interest in this loser — and she finally divulged that Blake visited her in Alabama a week before Paradise. What the heck is up with this guy and all his previous connections to the females on the island?!? He and Hannah even kissed during the pre-show meetup, as Dylan expressed pain over the fact that Hannah hid this information from him. Tayshia Adams, meanwhile, confronted Hannah for withholding the Blake hangout from her, considering Blake Horstmann took her on a date during week one of Season 6 . Adams felt blindsided, which was the same feeling she and Hannah both experienced during Colton Underwood’s season. Hannah did not really appreciate the candid conversation, saying that Blake’s visit was “private” and she didn’t share the story out of respect for him. (Ummm… talk about IRONIC , huh?!?) Hannah thought the show was a better outlet to figure out their connection and later claimed Tayshia “mean girled” her. Also on avery busy episode: Dean Unglert caught Caelynn Miller-Keyes’ eye upon his arrival. However, she grew irritated upon accusing Kristina Schulman of “slut-shaming me across this entire beach.” Dean, who wanted to make up for his earlier sins, didn’t seem to mind her tears, asking her on a date despite the breakdown. Or maybe because of it. He and Caelynn ended up making out in the pool. Finally, Demi Burnett and Derek Peth seemed like the only strong, solid couple in all of Paradise…. but she was secretly conflicted because of the woman she had been dating in Los Angeles before the show. Yes, we said woman . Bachelor in Paradise Trailer: Demi Burnett Kisses a Woman!!!!! Burnett missed her and still thought about her. Like, a lot . She later came out as sexually fluid to several people, but hesitated to tell Derek because she didn’t want the revelation to ruin their connection. In the end, though, she opened up and was relieved by his accepting reaction.
Vicki Gunvalson may no longer be a regular cast member on The Real Housewives of Orange County, but her presence was felt on Tuesday’s explosive installment. Kelly Dodd decided it was time to get some revenge on Vicki when she learned that her daughter had to make her Instagram page private following Vicki’s claims that Kelly was taking cocaine. Poor Jolie had received some horrifying messages on the social media site, and Kelly was livid. Elsewhere, Tamra Judge was put on the spot by husband Eddie about her fraught relationship with Vicki and asked whether she would forgive her former friend. “There’s a big part of me that just doesn’t trust her anymore,” Tamra replied. “And when she texts me how she hates Gina [Kirschenheiter], and then I hear from Gina, and she’s like, ‘Oh my God, [Vicki] called me, and she was so nice and sweet!’ When she got a DUI, Vicki sent me the article and was like, ‘Hahahaha.’ So don’t call somebody and worry about them when you’re talking shit about them!” Eddie wondered why Vicki would act that way, prompting Tamra to say the following: “Vicki is the most insecure person I have ever met in my life.” Yikes, right? Tamra followed that up with a confessional in which she said she’s “known Vicki for 14 years, and I still can’t figure her out.” “She’s got a devil and an angel. She’s got like a very sweet motherly person, and that’s the Vicki I like. And then she’s got this horrible side to her. I never know which Vicki I’m getting.” Viewers were then shown a screenshot of the group chat between Tamra, Vicki, and Shanon Beador. Beador wrote,” Gina was arrested for DUI last night. And she said I was self-medicating…” Vicki said: “So ridiculous…another jailbird…irresponsible.” Shannon replied, “Yup. And she blew a stop sign earlier this month. So stupid. And at 3:43 am?????” Tamra later told Shannon that Vicki wanted to bring up the pig video. The video in question was an animated pig that spoke with Kelly’s voice. “You wanna f–k with me, you little pig of a f–king bitch?!” the hilarious video begins. “That’s exactly what’s gonna happen to you. Don’t f–king text me! Don’t write to me. You blocked me. I can do whatever you want. You look like shit, so hahahahaha, woohoohoohoohoo, hahahahaha.” But why did Kelly think a pig would hit Vicki right in the feels? “Slade Smiley called Vicki a pig on stage in front of hundreds of people [years ago],” Tamra revealed. Kelly knows that’s a sore subject with Vicki. She got very insecure, even had her nose done because she didn’t wanna look like a pig! It’s really a low blow.” Kelly arrived with her pal and new housewife, Braunwyn Windham-Burke, and immediately said she did not want to meet Vicki. “Ugh, God, Vicki’s here,” Kelly complained. Vicki greeted everyone, including Kelly, but decided to forego welcoming the new housewife to the fold. However, she chatted up her husband, Sean. Kelly tried to bite her tongue but quickly made her way over to Emily and Gina to admit that she would “not f–king engage in that bitch. There’s no way.” When all the housewives were at the table, Vicki popped up, and Kelly made a mad dash away from it. “Did you ladies hear the nice pig emoji that she did about me, saying that I look like shit?” Vicki wondered. Emily said, “I think you look beautiful.” “Well, regardless, you don’t say that to another woman,” Vicki shot back, and Emily agreed. “We’re all who we are. I’m a product of my mother and my father — with a couple of little tweaks,” Vicki said. Emily went to find Kelly and told her about PigGate, and Gina and Shannon were already there. “Vicki tells them about the pig emoji, but she didn’t reiterate about the, uh,” Kelly said, clearly confused. “She sent me this huge text about ‘stop this, you don’t do this, don’t do this, don’t do that.’ As my response, I did a pig emoji right back at her, and I just said what I wanted to say.” Kelly said that she sent the pig emoji because she “didn’t want to type out a whole dissertation on why [Vicki’s] a piece of shit. I just did a mirror image of what she looks like. So oink, oink.” While that was going down, Vicki told Tamra that she wanted to confront Kelly, but Tamra said that Vicki was just as bad with the cocaine allegations. “Okay! She called me fat!” Vicki yelled back. Tamra tried to get Kelly to meet with Vicki to hear what she had to say, but Kelly said Vicki “completely ruined” her reputation and that wasn’t something she was going to forget. Vicki tried to speak to Kelly several times at the party thanks to a nudge from her pals, but Kelly complained that wanted nothing to do with Vicki. “Leave me alone!” Kelly yelled as Vicki tried to say that she cared about her. “You don’t understand what you have done to me!” Kelly shouted. “You have hurt my daughter! Do you understand?! Have you ever seen me do cocaine?! Have you?!” There’s plenty more where that came from next Tuesday!

We think it’s safe to say nothing is going according to plan for Hannah Brown these days. When Hannah asked Tyler on a date during her Bachelorette season finale, it was widely assumed the former pageant queen would get a second shot at love. But that hasn’t turned out to be the case. Instead, Cameron is dating fellow model Gigi Hadid — and by all indications, the relationship is getting serious. According to E! News, Tyler and Gigi were spotted on yet another date this week. And those who laid eyes on the couple say they made little attempt to conceal their obvious affection for one another. “Gigi looked good,” said one witness . “She was casual and seemed very chill. It seems like they are definitely spending more time together and growing close.” The report comes one week after Bachelor Nation first learned of the romance. “Gigi is definitely interested in Tyler,” a source shared with E! News at that time. “They met for drinks and they got along really well. It was very casual but they were laughing and had a very engaged conversation. They are both taking things slow but have both made it clear they are interested in each other.” At the time, the insider insisted that Cameron and Hadid were keeping things casual — but things seem to have evolved quickly. “He really likes Gigi, but it’s just a fling for now,” an insider previously said. “They are both gorgeous and single and they’ve had fun spending time together. He’s living in the moment and not thinking too much past that.” The source can claim it’s casual, but Gigi and Tyler’s behavior says otherwise. Less than 24 hours after their first date, the models were spotted bowling with friends at a New York City lane. And in the past few days, they’ve been spotted together at least twice more. Back-to-back dates, PDA, meeting each other’s friends? Sounds like more than a hook-up situation to us! As for Hannah, she’s taking the situation in stride — though it seems she’s understandably less than thrilled with the way things played out. “He has every right to do whatever he wants because we were just, you know, hanging out, seeing where it goes,” Brown recently said on Rachel Lindsay and Ali Fedotowsky’s Bachelor Happy Hour podcast. “It was a little confusing but, um, he can do whatever he wants to and I know that I can too.” She added: “I totally still have feelings but, at the same time, I am not tied to any man or tied to Tyler and I’m not going to be.” Those are the words of a woman who deeply regrets picking Jed Wyatt !

Last month, Amber Portwood was arrested for domestic violence after allegedly attacking Andrew Glennon while he held their son. Now, she's getting support from a former castmate — and quite possibly the last person you'd expect. Farrah Abraham is cheering on Amber, telling her that she knows that she can make it as a single mom. “I mean, I wish her all the best,” Farrah expresses in her interview with HollywoodLife . She continues: “It's really sad that … I think it's just like everyone is saying. She has to focus on her health and her well-being.” “I know it hurts, as a mom, to have your kids taken away,” Farrah adds. “I know it hurts to sometimes make wrong choices and get off the beaten path that she wants to be on,” she notes. “And the more that we all talk about that, that she talks about that, that's awesome,” Farrah raves. “For Amber,” Farrah says. “My message would be, ‘I wish you all the best and I know how that feels, and I understand.’” “I’m empathetic to what she’s going through,” the reality villain affirms. “But I really really hope that she can be alone, go solo, be a solo girl,” Farrah expresses. “And,” she continues. “Be that strong independent fierce woman that I know is inside of her.” Farrah notes that Amber is a person who is strong “and who can easily have two kids on her own.” Now, Farrah is the first to admit that she is out of the loop and has been since she left Teen Mom OG in a huff. “They’ve definitely probably splitted ways after that,” Farrah muses. “I can only imagine,” she says with sympathy. “This is her second go round of her losing custody of a child,” Farrah notes. “And,” she concludes. “I’m sure that’s not taken lightly.” A little piece of advice for everyone? Firework displays just aren't that important. They're noisy pollution sources. But reports say that it was over a missed firework show that Amber lost her temper and allegedly attacked Andrew. With a shoe, she allegedly pummeled him while he held their child, and even demanded that he set down James. She also allegedly hacked at a door with a machete — an image from everyone's nightmares — in her fury. We are so glad that Andrew escaped with minimal injuries and that 1-year-old James was physically unharmed. Despite what sounds like a one-sided incident, Farrah is not the first Teen Mom star (past or present) to sympathize with Amber. Catelynn Lowell voiced her support for Amber with a message that could only be interpreted as “believe attackers!” She and Maci Bookout both showed up in court in to root for Team Amber. It may be that they're simply siding with their friend out of habit. Others have suggested that perhaps Amber's mental health made her actions in July fully outside of her control. Perhaps the court and a series of expert witnesses will decide that. This is not Amber's first arrest for domestic violence. Famously, years ago, she attacked baby daddy Gary Shirley. The violence was caught on camera. Amber managed to strike a deal that would have avoided prison time, but ended up behind bars anyway. Most had hoped that she had learned her lesson and gotten the help that she needed. No one ever has the right to strike or otherwise attack a member of their family. Yes, even if they're mad about fireworks.
It’s been over two months now since Jessa Duggar gave birth to her third child and her first daughter, precious little Ivy. It really doesn’t seem like it’s been that long, right? Time flies when your family breeds like literal rabbits! With all the Duggar pregnancy announcements and updates and speculation that’s been happening lately, are we honestly supposed to be able to keep up? But for the sake of discussing what we’re discussing today, just remember that Jessa had Ivy at the end of May . And sometime in July … she disappeared. Or, OK, yeah, that might be a little dramatic. We’re pretty sure she’s just at home, probably completely overwhelmed with having three children under the age of three. What we mean is that she disappeared from social media. Jessa has always been pretty active on Instagram, and even after Ivy was born, she shared tons of pictures of her. There were photos of Ivy, photos of Ivy’s baby toes, photos of Ivy with her big brothers, photos of Spurgeon and Henry, too — lots and lots of photos. On July 10th, she shared a photo of Ivy with a pacifier, and then … She was never heard from again . She hasn’t been posting to her Instagram stories, and Ben hasn’t posted on his Instagram at all in a couple of years, so we really have no clue what she’s been up to. Besides, you know, babies. Ben’s family has an Instagram of their own, so we’ve been seeing some photos of the kids there, but we haven’t had a glimpse at Jessa for several weeks now. And her fans are getting kind of concerned about it. This week, Ben’s family shared a photo of him reading to the boys, and they tagged Jessa as the photographer, and in the comments on that post, there were some questions. “Is Jessa OK?” one person asked. “I have been wondering about her, miss her!” “I don’t know,” someone else replied, “but her absence has been noted. I hoped Mrs. Seewald could let us know if she’s ok.” Others left similar comments, and if you check the comments on Jessa’s last post from July, you can see that people are getting pretty anxious for new updates on her family. “Would love to see Ivy now,” one of her followers told her. “Haven’t seen or heard much from you lately,” another fan said. “Hope you’re ok and not getting too overwhelmed.” One comment read “I am sure she will return when she can. She is a mom now and also busy making more babies to share with all the fans.” There’s quite a bit to discuss here, but real quick — Jessa better not be “busy making more babies,” because she just had one not even three months ago and we’re pretty sure her uterus would fall out if she tried. But it is interesting that she’s pretty much gone from Instagram, right? There’s always the possibility that she’s struggling with postpartum depression and just isn’t feeling much like being on social media, and if that’s the case, then we hope she’s able to get help and support for that. But like we said … she’s got two toddlers and a newborn right now. It’s more likely she’s simply in survival mode. Whatever’s going on with her, we hope she feels better soon. View Slideshow: Duggar Intimacy Guide: Make Yourself Available to HIS Needs. Always. Joyfully. And that maybe she thinks about taking some time before throwing yet another baby into this mix … but that one’s probably not going to happen.
