Source: Ethan Miller / Getty Drake And His Father Feud Over Upbringing If you’ve listened to any of Drake’s albums then you know he has a lot of love for his mother. He also mentions, ad nauseam, that his daddy wasn’t always around. That makes sense, right? After all, Daddy Dennis was in Memphis while Drake and his mother were in Toronto. So naturally we all assumed this was a true reflection of the former Degrassi star’s life. Dennis Graham took to Nick Cannon’s show to talk about his relationship with Drake and he had this to say: “I have always been with Drake. I said, ‘Drake why are you saying all of this different stuff about me, man? This is not cool.’ And he goes ‘Dad, it sells records.’” Well, then. Drake took to IG to say that his dad calling him cap was actually cap. Get it? Dennis wants to be famous instead of just enjoying the blessed position he is in. pic.twitter.com/OIwwhjkOBx — Nigel D. (@NigelDPresents) October 8, 2019 Who do you believe? Twitter has a LOT to say about this. Peep… If Drake's dad didn't want people to believe his son's lyrics, he wouldn't dress like Carmen Sandiego. pic.twitter.com/iDRkxN7HRq — Mike Beauvais (@MikeBeauvais) October 8, 2019

Secrets, secrets, they are no fun. They are no fun for anyone… until they come out and stir up lots of drama, that is, which is exactly what went down on This Is Us Season 4 Episode 3, “Unhinged.” On the latest installment of this NBC drama, Kate (Chrissy Metz) broke down after learning that husband Toby (Chris Sullivan) had been keeping his weight loss from her. This is how the reveal transpired: Toby settled into his IT sales job by inviting Kate to meet some of his clients at a restaurant. He then attempted to subtly get the hostess to switch their table, yet when she wouldn’t do so, Kate confessed that she could not fit into the booth. It was very awkward. Why didn’t Toby say the say thing, however? Hmmm… Watch This Is Us Season 4 Episode 3 Online Kate later ordered Toby to take off his shirt, but not in a seductive way — she wanted to see his abs for herself. He admitted that he had been going to the gym to get healthy following his heart attack, which made Kate quite emotional. He didn’t want to make her feel bad, although she acknowledged she had gained 10 pounds since giving birth. From there, her neighbor (Timothy Omundson), who was trying to rehabilitate from a stroke, caught her crying on her porch… and after he shared his story with her, she and little Jack joined him for his morning walks around the neighborhood. It’s a start, right? Elsewhere, viewers saw why Nicky (Griffin Dunne) vandalized the VA center. You see, he was making progress with a therapist when she was transferred and this caused him to relapse. Kevin (Justin Hartley) arrived in town to help Nicky avoid prison time and a gigantic fine, as the VA agreed to let Nicky continue his treatment, despite his aversion to assistance. Again: It’s a start, right? And speaking of starts… While at the facility, Kevin met Cassidy (Jennifer Morrison) and her son. Cassidy was immediately turned off by him, but she later warmed up when they wound up in the same Alcoholic Anonymous meeting. Kevin lamented his life having no purpose at all and trying to stay sober by focusing on his nephew. Cassidy laughed at his struggles, which included his fear of becoming an AARP spokesperson, prompting Kevin to eventually did the same. Sparks most definitely flew here and it’s very safe to say we’re intrigued. Also; Deja (Lyric Ross) received a surprise of her own when Malik (Asante Blackk) told her he has a daughter. She had no idea what to think about the situation and would only say that the revelation complicated her feelings for him. In other young person Pearson news, Tess (Eris Baker) battled coming out at school. Then there was our man Randall (Sterling K. Brown), who faced a few problems of his own. One of his aides pressured him to fire Jae-Won (Tim Jo) because the two were friends and he lacked experience. However, Randall let go of the aide instead for disrespecting him and then helped his chief of staff plan his proposal to his girlfriend.

But Miguel (Jon Huertas) stood up for him, telling their boss that he would quit if Jack had to go. The bold move saved both their jobs. Kevin also helped out Randall after he got in trouble at school and suffered from an anxiety attack.

Last week, we reported on the sad news of yet another tragic loss within the Duggar family. On October 2, Rebecca Waller was killed instantly when she ran a red light and was struck by two cars near her home in rural Minnesota. She was just 22 years old. Rebecca was the sister of David Waller, who is married to Anna’s sister, Priscilla. Though there were several degrees of separation and a distance of many miles between them, Anna and Rebecca reportedly enjoyed a close bond, As David wrote in his loving tribute to his departed sister , Anna’s family is an exceptionally close-knit clan. And it seems the loss of such a young life in such a senseless accident created a shockwave of grief that resonated throughout the Waller and Duggar families. This week, Anna became the latest member of her extended family to honor Rebecca’s memory on social media. She posted the above photo of her beloved relative along with a heartfelt caption: “Life is a precious gift and sometimes it seems MUCH too short,” Anna wrote. “We were heartbroken when Rebecca Waller (my brother-in-law, David Waller’s youngest sister) passed away suddenly in a tragic car accident this week.” “The memories our family made with Becca over the years will be cherished forever!” Anna continued. “She lived her 22 years of life (though so short) to the fullest. “Rebecca loved God and served others diligently, she was energetic, gave the best hugs, and was a blessing to everyone who knew her!” she concluded. The loss could not have come at a more difficult time for Anna. Currently pregnant with her sixth child , Anna has been forced to cope with two unexpected deaths in the span of just four months. Back in June, Jim Bob’s mother, Mary Duggar, passed away in a freak drowning accident. While she was also was not an immediate family member, Anna had formed a close bond with Mary in the years since she married into the Duggar clan. Needless to say, Anna’s current pregnancy has not been an easy one from an emotional standpoint. Though these recent losses may have led her to an even deeper appreciation for the time she’s able to spend with her loved ones. Our thoughts go out to all of Rebecca’s friends and family at this difficult time. View Slideshow: Anna Duggar, Fundie Fashion Queen: See How Her Look Has Evolved!
It’s not unusual for a member of The Real Housewives of Orange County franchise to spill lots of tea. But Braunwyn Windham-Burke just did something unusual in an interiew with Bravo: She spilled lots of tea… about herself! And her somewhat kinky sex life, we should add. On last week’s new episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County, we learned that Windham-Burke and her husband have been involved in at least one threesome. We know this because Windham-Burke told us. The reality star added at the time that she would “never tell those stories” from this experience… but then she was pressed yesterday on the experience by Bravo. And she told the story. For starters, the threesome took place on husband Sean’s 35th birthday. Yes, Braunwyn and Sean knew the other woman and, no, the sexual act wasn’t planned in advance… not exactly, at least. “Things had been happening. We were at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego for his 35th birthday. We rented out every bottom room,” Windham-Burke explained, adding in more detail: “We had friends from everywhere and like everyone lost their damn minds. “I’ve been with him a long time, everything we’ve done, we’ve done together. So it was sort of like, that would be fun.” Hey, some folks would agree. We’re not here to judge. Continued the Real Housewife and the Really Candid Sexual Partner: “I kinda was like, this is your birthday present. It started as a joke and then became every monumental birthday, this will be your gift. “That’s not a hard and fast rule. But Sean is crazy and you’ve met Sean, he doesn’t seem crazy at all. He’s super nice and buttoned up, but he’s super wild too.” Windham-Burke went on to say that these threesomes are always with another woman, never another man. Braunwyn also warned against ever having one with a friend, “that’s a hard and fast rule.” Sounds pretty exciting and interesting… except that Windham-Burke’s co-stars don’t actually believe this happened. Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 14 Episode 9 Online “I think they’re full of shit,” Kelly Dodd told Bravo. “I think they do that for shock value. I don’t think they’re like that because they have a really nice family home environment, I don’t think they do that.” Added Gina Kirschenheiter, also a critic: “I think it’s kinda sad actually. I think personally, I’ve thought about it a little bit. I think her husband may have cheated on her.” Wow, well… okay then! Apparently we’re going there now, huh? Tamra Judge, for her part, also came out swinging in reaction to this confession. “So she just embraces the other girl?” asked Judge. “I don’t think it’s that,” Gina replied in a video Bravo posted online. “I think she is now feeling like okay now I need to satisfy my husband … if I let that into my world and my bedroom, it keeps everybody satisfied. “I think that’s more damage control,” she added. “And her not being confident in herself and her needing attention.” This sure took a turn, didn’t it? Can’t a reality star just detail threesomes with her husband without her so-called friends calling her out for it? Sheesh! View Slideshow: 13 Scandals That Rocked The Real Housewives Franchise
Bella Thorne came out of the closet years ago and, more recently, clarified that she is pansexual . A lot of people take time to find the right label. This week, she took to social media to reveal her new girlfriend, whom she describes as “camera shy.” You can’t blame her — since the photos that Bella chose to share featured the two of them entirely topless. “She’s very cute,” Bella Thorne writes in the captions of the two photos that you are about to see. We can’t see her new lady love’s face in the photo, which is why she felt the need to clarify. She then admits: “First girl I have dated that’s camera shy.” Hey, that means that said girl is probably not using Bella to build her brand! Though to be honest, we didn’t think that she was in the first place. The new girlfriend in question is Alex Martini. Bella remains in an open relationship with boyfriend Benjamin Mascolo, who showed some love to the photos. “You girls are cute,” he commented, including a black heart emoji. Bella’s ex Tana Mangeau commented: “Yes Martini!” Just this summer, Bella put Tana on blast , so it’s good to see that they’re on so much better terms these days. So who is Alex Martini? She is a tattoo enthusiast, even enduring multiple lengthy tattoo sessions to turn her back into a work of art. (You know that we have a photo of that below) Alex is a lesbian — we don’t just mean that she likes girls, but has referred to herself by that specific label on Instagram. And here, you can see her face as she absolutely rocks a plaid shirt, reminding everyone why the LGBTQ+ community owns plaid flannel as a concept. She looks great! It’s not clear how long Bella and Alex have been dating, but they’ve been engaging with each other on social media since September at least. By the way, Alex is also in the entertainment industry, but she works behind the scenes on tons of TV and movie projects. She’s worked on everything from major streaming projects to, a number of years ago, being a production assistant on Keeping Up With The Kardashians . Alex is also a dedicated cat mom. Awwww! Unfortunately, in part because of Bella’s larger-than-life persona but also because of general bigotry, we know that some people won’t respond well to this post. Some people just don’t like LGBTQ+ people, or try to erase bi and pan folks (who outnumber all of the rest of us combined, let’s be clear). Some will disguise their bigotry by objecting to “flaunting” in ways that they would never discuss a straight couple. Then there are those who roll their eyes at “open relationships.” It’s very nearly 2020, folks. Open relationships and polyamory are a thing. If it doesn’t sound realistic, or you can’t imagine jealousy not ruining it, then it’s probably not the right relationship for you . Remember, there are plenty of people for whom monogamy sounds like an unthinkable horror. Different relationships for different people. It is a wonder to see Bella so happy and alive. She has had her emotional ups and downs and is known for being very real about all of that witn fans. Congratulations to Bella and Alex on this relationship. They look so cute together!

For Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson, first came love. And then came marriage. And, pretty soon, will come a baby in a baby carriage. This classic nursery rhyme is appropriate in this case because, first, it very much applies to the famous couple and, second, they were totally just caught (although not in a tree) K-I-S-S-I-N-G. Duggar and Swanson shared a handful of new photos on their joint Instagram account this week, displaying an unusual amount of public affection for members of this polarizing family. You can check out the romantic snapshots above and below. “Love doing life with you” wrote the twosome as a sweet caption, adding: “Btw I’m ready for fall, Siah is still in summer. #date #blessed.” As you can see here, Josiah and Lauren are engaged in a lengthy peck on each other’s lips, nearly getting to first base in the process — yet narrowly missing the accomplishment by keeping their tongues in their respective mouths. The couple did not swap spit of any kind, of course, until they got married in June of 2018 . Shortly thereafter, Josiah and Lauren swapped some bodily fluids, resulting in the latter getting pregnant… only for Lauren to suffer a tragic miscarriage several months ago . “I just want to thank each and everyone of you for your prayers, support, and for all you Mama’s out there for sharing your angel baby stories,” the Counting On star captioned an Instagram photo back in March, adding at the time: “It’s easy to share those happy times in our lives, but sharing something hard, like losing a baby can be like putting salt to a wound. “I know by y’all sharing your stories it has not only helped me, but many other women who have gone through the same trials.” Just a short while later, by the grace of God some might say, Lauren and Josiah announced they were expecting for a second time. “We are so excited to announce that baby No. 2 is on the way!!!!” they wrote on May 20, adding in excitement and gratitude: “It’s hard to fully express just how grateful we are for God blessing us again with another precious gift! “So, as we rejoice of the life of our second sweet baby, we also remember (balloon as symbolism) our other sweet baby, Asa, in heaven. God is so incredibly good! “#MiraclesDoHappen, #babynumber2, #rainbowbaby and #DaddyandMamaof2blessings.” In June, we then learned the stars are having a girl. Lauren, for her part, has been keeping fans well apprised of her status and her baby bump via a number of social media posts and pictures. On August 10, she posted some photos of herself showing off her stomach and wrote: “Life is such a gift and something I cherish more now, with all that we have gone through this past year. “This pregnancy hasn’t been easy. I treasure every moment and I am reminded daily that life is truly a miracle from God. “#blessed #lifeisagift #donttakelifeforgranted.” We don’t know for certain when Lauren is due, but we wish her nothing but good health and happiness.

From the moment that Peter Weber was announced as the new Bachelor , the decision was mired in controversy. Now, strange reports from the set have led some fans to the conclusion that we may be in for the franchise’s weirdest season yet. First, we learned that Hannah Brown is involved in Peter’s season for reasons that still aren’t entirely clear. Now, Radar Online is reporting that Weber was hospitalized after suffering “a serious injury” during filming on Monday. Apparently, the 28-year-old was participating in a group golfing date when a freak accident occurred: “He went to step on the cart but fell and split his face open on two cocktail glasses he was carrying,” a production source tells Radar. Peter required 22 stitches but was released from the hospital later the same day. “He is pulling through,” the insider says, adding that the injury may force a delay in taping. “Everyone is worried about production,” the insider claims, as “all the women were flying in for a filming today” for several days of consecutive filming. Between The Bachelor , The Bachelorette , and The Bachelor In Paradise , there’s almost always one Bachelor Nation show on the air and another one in production. It’s a tight schedule that keeps Chris Harrison’s pockets pleasantly plump … but doesn’t allow for much in the way of unforeseen delays. A source from the set claims Peter was not drunk at the time of the accident, but simply suffered an unfortunate misstep. Hey, when you think about it, it’s sort of amazing that “cocktail glass to the face while golfing” isn’t a more common injury. If you’ve been keeping up with our Bachelor spoilers , you know that Peter is down to his final 12 after cutting four contestants during a rose ceremony held on Saturday. As for whether or not Hannah’s still on set, that remains unclear — but it looks like producers might be planning to keep her around as a sort of wild card pseudo-contestant for the remainder of the season. “They’re weaving Hannah into as many storylines as possible,” says spoiler master Reality Steve, who notes that Hannah has already “hosted” at least one group date. We appreciate that producers are trying to keep things fresh and beef up the dramatic tension, but Hannah already chose Tyler Cameron and Jed freakin’ Wyatt over Peter. We doubt dude is feeling tempted to give her yet another chance. View Slideshow: The Bachelor Spoilers: Peter Weber’s Final 12; Hannah Brown Still Trying to Win Pilot’s Heart?!
