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

After being arrested immediately following his November 2018 Breakfast Club interview , the rapper was hit some serious RICO charges–charges which a lot of people were assuming would be his demise. Tekashi took the stand and told on everyone under the sun in a case that had more plot twists than a SAW movie. Kidnapping , shootings, paid hits: it all seems like the perfect biopic for prime time TV. An now, it looks like 6ix9ine may be free to play himself it that ever actually happens. After his testimony helped put away most of the Nine Trey Bloods (which is a prison gang mostly anyway), prosecutors asked for his sentencing to be moved up from its initially scheduled date in January/February of 2020. To absolutely no one’s surprise, the judge approved this request and the new date is now set for December 28, 2019 . This approval almost guarantees a time served sentencing and immediate release back into the free world. This latest news comes after a weird press release where the has apparently declined witness protection. If Tekashi does end up being held or doing any of the time in front of him, it would be surprising to a lot of people–but after the performance he put on while on the stand it looks like the state of New York is ready to let him free. In this scenario, we really don’t know which one would be safer for the rapper, but it looks like we’ll find out sooner than later. Whether or not you’re a fan of Tekashi 6ix9ine, it’s safe to say this is going to be an interesting saga to watch to say the least.

But according to reports, Trebek’s time as the legendary’s show’s host may be coming to an end. In an interview with Canada’s CTV television network , Trebek revealed that his chemotherapy treatments are starting to affect his speech. “I talk to the producers about this all the time now. I say, ‘Look, I’m slurring my words. My tongue doesn’t work as much, as well as it used to. The chemo has caused sores inside my mouth. It makes it difficult for me to speak and enunciate properly,’” He continued: “I’m sure there are observant members of the television audience that notice also, but they’re forgiving,” he added. “But there will come a point when they will no longer be able to say, ‘It’s OK.’” You may recall that back in March, the 79-year old revealed that he’d been diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. However, he vowed in the TV interview to continue to fight. “We’ll play it by ear and keep chugging along until we either win or lose. I’ve lived a good life, a full life, and I’m nearing the end of that life… If it happens, why should I be afraid of that?” Let’s keep Trebek and his family in our prayers.

Designed by famous designer Stella McCartney , the brand’s first Post-Mastectomy Sports Bra has been created to empower breast cancer survivors to introduce sport and fitness back into their lives, Adidas wrote in a press release . “With the Post-Mastectomy Sports Bra, I really wanted to encourage women to take care of their health through wellness and self-care. This bra allows us to support recovering patients through the next phase of their journey, and hopefully give them the confidence to get back into training. It has a cool and modern look that will help motivate the wearer, as well as assuring them, they are not [the] odd one out in the gym,” explained McCartney, whose mother died of the disease in 1998. Source: Adidas / adidas The model used in the campaign is Black British boxer and breast cancer survivor, Michele Aboro . “After my surgery, I felt lost. As a professional athlete, I was used to relying on my body but after my mastectomy, I started to lose belief in myself and how my body would react. When I was ready to get back into fitness, I couldn’t find a sports bra that didn’t require being pulled over my head or lacked in support. Now I wear the Post-Mastectomy Sports Bra every time I train – it is comfortable and supportive and has helped me build back my confidence to get back into the game,” the mother and mentor explained. The bra, which costs $69, has a front-closure zipper, inner pockets with removable pads, and adjustable straps. In addition, the seams were all placed specifically around the arms to “reduce discomfort and irritation to areas of the skin prone to sensitivity due to surgical scarring.” It comes in two colors: Pink and black. Listen, this type of bra is definitely needed. Bravo Adidas! Buy the bra here .

See what else she has to say above, and tap the link in bio to read @jamilahlemieux’s profile of the iconic artist. A post shared by SELF (@selfmagazine) on Oct 7, 2019 at 9:23am PDT Blige also opened up and got real about her past drug addiction, being a symbol of hope for others to heal and her ex-husband. On her role as a symbol of hope, and her ability to help others heal: “It happened because every night that I’m at these shows, I have at least four women say [to me], ‘You got me through the divorce that I was going through. That Strength of a Woman album? We was going through [your] divorce with you’…. I had to go through that in order to serve.” On her ex-husband: “Well, when I look back, I see that we all want what we want. And we want it to be the way we want it to be,” she says. “I wanted a savior. I’d been hurting so long, and so much, and so bad.” As for his role in breaking her drug habit, she now admits “he did not deserve that credit.” On the roots of her battle with substance abuse: “We numb ourselves with drugs and alcohol and people and shopping and shit, to cover up what’s really going on inside,” she says. “You’re taking drugs so you can go out and feel courageous, or go out and feel beautiful or whatever. You’re doing it to cover up something.” On when she realized she needed to make a change and begin her recovery journey : “I’ve seen visions of what I would look like if I kept doing drugs,” she says, adding that there were also some nights when her reality may have mirrored those perhaps prophetic visualizations closely. “If I saw myself almost dying, or if I almost died, or almost O.D.’d, why would I do that again?” View this post on Instagram “When I ask if [Mary J. Blige] has any interest in becoming a mother, she explains that she is focused on mothering herself. She’s taking care of that child within her who was hurt by other people and went on a path of self-harm as a result: ‘Right now I’m not thinking about anybody but her,’ Blige says. ‘…Right now it’s about me and little Mary.
