Jenelle Evans is always involved in some sort of drama, but lately, her life has been even more of a trainwreck/roller coaster than usual. As usual, she’s dealing with a mountain of legal troubles, and she may soon find herself bars for assaulting Nathan Griffith’s girlfriend . Add to that her recent feud with Kailyn Lowry and Chelsea Houska , as well as the ongoing battery of tests for her mysterious medical problems , and Jenelle has a lot on her plate, even by Jenelle standards. But the Carolina Hurricane thrives on drama the way the rest of us live on food and oxygen, and Jenelle announced on Twitter moments ago that she’s gearing up for even more craziness: “Two custody battles at the same time. Let’s go,” Jenelle tweeted, along with a smiley face Emoji. Yes, it seems Jenelle is planning to go to court to win back custody of her first son Jace , who’s basically been raised by her mother, Barbara. At the same time, she’s trying to win full custody of her second son, Kaiser, which she currently shares with baby daddy Nathan. View Slideshow: Jenelle Evans & Nathan Griffith: A TMI, Sometimes Rocky Romance “Jenelle just has everything in place and the court dates have officially been set,” a source close to the situation tells Radar Online. “She’s going for full custody of Kaiser.” Unfortunately, it seems Jenelle may face delays in both of her legal battles. For one thing, no one knows where the hell Nathan is: “They are just trying to serve Nathan right now, which he doesn’t have a lawyer like he said he did and he won’t give anyone his address to be served,” says the insider. Meanwhile, lawyers for Barabara have delayed that case until May, and the source says Jenelle plans to use the intervening months to “gather all of the evidence” she needs to prove that Barbara is an unfit guardian. She better hope that the judge in her case doesn’t watch Teen Mom 2 online , because just about every episode contains iron-clad proof that Jenelle shouldn’t be allowed in the same room as a child.
Last month, Yolanda Foster and Lisa Rinna engaged in a Twitter feud over the ongoing question of whether or not Yolanda is really suffering from Lyme disease. It may seem like an odd thing to question, but Lisa is not alone in her belief that Yolanda might be faking the whole thing to gain attention and sympathy from others. And in defense of the Yolanda-truthers, there are some sketchy details that make it seem as though Yolanda is only pretending to be ill. For example, she recently revealed that two of her her children also have Lyme disease , which is bizarre, because the disease isn’t contagious through casual contact with infected humans, and is usually transmitted through deer tick bites. Did the entire family go camping and forget to bring the Off? Did Oswald act alone? Can jet fuel really melt steel beams?! We got a little carried away there, but the point is, the controversy over Yolanda’s illness is complex, and there’s a good chance it’ll never be resolved. But while theories about Elvis helping the Illuminati fake the moon landing are usually confined to the scarier corners of the Internet, the great Yolanda Lyme disease debate might soon take center stage on national television. Yes, according to Radar Online, Yolanda is planning to confront Lisa on the upcoming Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion special. “Even though Yolanda and Lisa made up on camera, the friendship is still very much on the rocks,” the source continued. “She is going to give Lisa an ultimatum, fess up, or the friendship is over.” Even though Lisa is just one of several people who has openly questioned Yolanda’s illness, Foster is reportedly planning to single her out because Rinna was on her side at first , and her sudden change of heart made Yolanda feel betrayed. Like we said, this thing is complex, y’all. We’re pretty sure the Free Masons are somehow involved.

Dear Bossip , I am a 27 year old woman who went back to school over 3 years ago to start a second career as a registered nurse. My boyfriend and I, of almost 7 years, have a 2 year old son together. All of my life I have been extremely independent. I moved out of my mother’s house when I was 19 and have been taking care of my own since then. When we first got together, my boyfriend wasn’t very stable in life. I did all I could in my power to help build him into a man (working steadily, getting him to help his parents with bills, etc.). It was hard work, but I slowly started to see improvement. When I first started school, I had to cut down on my work hours so I could focus on my studies. My boyfriend ended up being the one paying for most of our bills. Not too long after I started school I became pregnant. Luckily, my family is an amazing support system and helps a ton with the baby. But, later in my pregnancy I began having complications and couldn’t work anymore. Also, I was approaching the last semester of school and was advised by my dean that I should not work if possible to focus on school and passing my licensing exam at the end of the semester. Well, during all of this, my boyfriend makes me feel like the biggest bum on the planet. We have a lot of stress over finances and he constantly tells me I do nothing and that it isn’t fair to him that he works ridiculous hours. Now, I feel terrible. I know he works like a dog and all, but I think it’s “F’d” up of him to belittle me when since the beginning of our relationship I’ve been the provider and the stable one. For the first time in a long time in my life I’m relying on someone else to hold me down while I try to better myself for the sake of my family. At times, I feel trapped and depressed because I feel like my son and I deserve better in life. He knew what the situation was when I started school and got pregnant. We both knew it wouldn’t be easy, but I felt like we had a partnership and it would be okay in the end. Now, I don’t even know if I want him to share in my success. Is that messed up? In the bottom of my heart I think I want things to work, but I feel like the disrespect has been too frequent and too far. I don’t want my son to witness that, but at the same time I don’t want him to grow up without a father present in his life. – Nurse My Soul Dear Ms. Nurse My Soul , One of the main reasons relationships end, and marriages end in divorce is because of money issues and finances. Money woes ends relationships. You and boyfriend have been together for 7 years with no marriage, and no progress forward other than playing house, and acting like a married couple. You spend years rebuilding him, and transforming him into the man you want him to be – Again, here we are with another woman changing a man into what she desires and what she wants, and in the end he turns the tables on you. You get him to change his ways, do everything you want him to do, and when they become that man, the better man, he soon forgets all the investment you did. And, because there is no obligation to you, he can simply walk away, with no thanks, and move on to another woman who will thank you for cleaning him up, building him up, and transforming him. But, I digress. You do all this work in changing him, and then decide to move in together, and have a child. All the while, you want to better yourself, and go back to school and improve your situation. And, while you’re doing all this for yourself and for him you are the one who is footing the bills, taking care of the finances, the house, the bills, and all the economics. SMDH! Now, because you are unable to work due to the pregnancy, then, have his baby, and now it’s his turn to take care of the finances and to support your dream, it is a problem. He can’t and doesn’t seem to be able to function and work the enormous hours to keep you afloat, and he doesn’t see why he should bear the burden of being the sole money-earner in the household. Well, this is what you created, and now you get to see a side of the same man you helped to build and transform turn on you. How does that feel? Well, I guess you are feeling it because you say that you are depressed, upset, hurt, angry, and reconsidering your relationship, as you should. You want to know why does he belittle you, make you feel bad, and isn’t supportive, or even consider the fact that you held him down in the beginning, and seems to have selective memory about all you’ve done for him. Well, it’s because he doesn’t care, he’s insensitive, inconsiderate, and a jerk. He can’t see the future or what’s ahead of him because he has limited insight, vision, and depth. Notice that it was you who helped him to transform into the man he is today. He couldn’t see that far ahead himself. So, if he can’t see the future for himself, then how can you expect him to see a future for you, him, and your son? He hasn’t had the foresight to even marry you after seven years of being together. Honey, wake up and see this for what it is – a failed relationship. Your investment has now reneged on you, and you can’t even get a return on it. It’s time you start thinking about you and your child. It’s time that you get back on your feet, get yourself a job, build yourself a nice savings, and find yourself an apartment for you and your child. This relationship has run its course. If your man can’t handle this, or support you now, then how can he support you in the future? He holds resentment toward you, and he resents that you are making him take on all the bills while he assumes you’re laying up at home only taking care of your child, and not contributing to the household finances. He feels you are taking his money out of his pocket, leaving him with little for himself, and he probably feels he is working all these hours only to get nothing in return. Therefore, he doesn’t see a future with you. He doesn’t see why he needs to invest in you and his child, and the future that you want to have. You and he are not on the same page. Therefore, get yourself together, and start rethinking how you can do for you and your son as a single parent. Get your career, and spend some time building yourself, loving yourself, and investing in yourself. It’s time to do for you. You’ve done for your man and poured into him, so, now it’s time to pour into yourself. Trust me, he will regret this down the road, especially when you are gone, out of his life, and you put him on child support. Yes, put him on child support, and let him continue to be responsible for his child. He can be part of his child’s life, and you can work out arrangements for joint custody, or visitation. You don’t have to be bitter about this situation, just smarter and wiser. Be better for yourself and your child. Be better because you deserve better. And, finally, you can have the peace of mind, happiness, and joy you deserve and need. Why be in a miserable relationship that causes you to be depressed, or with a man who makes you feel un-needed, unwanted, and a burden? – Terrance Dean ***(Attention all media/news outlets, if you use this story and letter, or any parts of this content for your outlets you must give credit to this site, the columnist, and his advice)*** Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think?

Welcome To Creep Heaven While you’re posting selfies, liking pics from 38 weeks ago or stalking your ex’s page, the toe-obsessed creeps of @toegang_ are celebrating (and sniffing) the prettiest (and stinkiest) feet on Instagram (WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE?) as part of a bizarre foot fetish movement that’s almost too creepy to be real. Hit the flip for a look into the hilariously creepy IG that celebrates pretty feet.
Interesting. Though the trio is apparently done for good over Tyrese’s refusal to share equally with his “brothers,” a rep for Tyrese says that the singer always had the highest pay, and simply wasn’t interested in a change of terms. Via TMZ: A rep for Tyrese says the group’s money was never split equally because the economic fact is Tyrese has had more chart success on his own. The rep did not deny money was behind the breakup. On a personal level … the rep said Tyrese still considers Tank and Ginuwine his brothers, but “business is business.” Welp. For those holding out hope for TGT to reunite, you can pretty much chalk this group as a fond memory. We wonder why Tyrese made it seem like a Ginuwine thing in the beginning… TMZ
In case you’ve been spent the past few days wandering the Great Plains in search of the bearded ne’er-do-well who left you for dead following a bear attack, let us be the first to inform you that Leonardo DiCaprio won his his first Academy Award on Sunday for playing a puddle of testosterone come to life in The Revenant . After dating Kelly Rohrbach throughout most of his Oscar campaign, Leo decided to drop his model of the moment in the weeks leading up to the big night, perhaps so he could do his usual self-consciously endearing thing and bring his mom as his red carpet date. But now that he’s hoisted his Oscar, Leo can get back to putting his hands on other shiny gold hard-bodies. Yes, in news that’s certain to shock you to your core and make you question everything you thought you knew about the man, Leonardo DiCaprio is dating a model in her early 20s. Specifically, he’s dating the 24-year-old pictured above, who sports the hilariously pole-ready name of Roxy Horner. Based on the information provided on her Instagram page, Roxy enjoys modeling, and doing other modelly stuff, which makes her a perfect fit for Leo. Unfortunately, at 24, she’s basically the DiCaprio girlfriend equivalent of a week-old banana. We’re guessing homie’s already planning his next trip to the produce department, but hey, enjoy it while it lasts, Roxy! Play your cards right and you might get to meet Lukas Haas!
Russell Wilson Takes Solo Trip With Baby Future Something tells us Future is NOT going to like the look of this. While Ciara is off in the Nigerian countryside visiting school children and wining her waist to African music in the streets …Baby Future is spending some one-on-one quality time with his new father Russell Wilson . Cameras caught up with Russell — accompanies by CiCi’s own father — as he lovingly gets the little guy out of his car seat and into his stroller in preparation for an out-of-town flight they’re hopping together. Check it out: Via TMZ : Future HATED when Russell Wilson was pushing his kid in a stroller — so how do you think he’s going feel after seeing the QB taking the kid on a flight Tuesday … without Ciara?! In fairness to Wilson — he WAS with Ciara’s father at LAX (in fact, it was grandpa who technically pushed the stroller) … but check out the clip, it feels very daddy duty-ish. Meanwhile, Ciara was M.I.A. — probably returning from her trip to Africa where she was visiting underprivileged school children. What complicates the situation was the gauntlet Future threw down back in July — when he blasted Ciara for allowing Wilson to do things a FATHER should be doing … not a boyfriend. Hmmm…what do you think of this one? Are you of the school of thought that Russell is “out of bounds” for spending time with Baby Future and his Grandpa without Ciara’s supervision around…or is this just a man who plans to be in this child’s life long term manning up and doing stepdaddy duty?

Sherri Shepherd’s Ex-Husband Lamar Sally To Star In New Reality Show While Sherri Shepherd battles against paying ex-husband Lamar Sally $4600 a month in child support for the baby they had via surrogate with a donated egg , Lamar Sally is busy filming a reality show to “clear his name” as a gold-digging opportunist. Sherri’s ex says he just wants to make sure he counters all the claims that Sherri and her celebrity friends have made about him and his intentions while parenting his son: Via Radar : Sally revealed during an interview with Radar that he is currently filming a reality show about his life as a single dad and the struggles he’s had to face in the wake of his divorce for Shepherd. “At the end of the day, I want my son to be proud of me,” he told Radar. “There are so many lies out there about me being a gold digger, me tricking Sherri into doing this and it’s just not true.” Because of all that has happened, Sally wants to share his story. “So it’s time for me to stand up and say, ‘No, this is the truth. This what really happened,’” he explained. “She has a lot more money than me,” Sally continued. “She has celebrities that have talked about me. It’s ok, because I want my son to be proud of me to say, ‘Hey, against all odds, my father stood up for me, and whatever happens, this is what he did.’” Lamar insists this isn’t just an opportunity for him to bash Sherri or make even more money off of the situation he’s in, but to champion single fathers and highlight their struggle: “We’re out there and we are raising our kids on our own,” Sally said. “We’re not trying to put down the mom, but to shine some light on what we’re doing.” “Unfortunately we are caught: whatever the ex-wife or baby mama says about you, you take it and just be the best father that you can,” he said. “Someone has to stand up for the dad and to have a voice and say, ‘Maybe there are two sides to this story.’” Sally and his costars plan to act as that voice. “We aren’t the dads that run out on their family,” he said. “No, we are dads that are in there every day grinding it out, being hands-on dads, working and we love our kids. We aren’t going to have this reputation of a weekend or part-time dad. No we are there every single day.” Interesting. We aren’t sure how this whole thing will work while he and Sherri are STILL fighting in court over the maternity of this child… Either way, will you be watching??? MailOnline / Splash
