90 Day Fiance Happily Ever After Sneak Peek: Larissa Lima Reveals She Has Two Kids

We knew that this was coming ever since Larissa Lima addressed abandoning her kids on social media earlier this week. Larissa has kids in Brazil, and for the first time ever, she's talking about it on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? To say that Debbie is shocked is an understatemen. In this sneak peek, her reaction is strongly negative. This sneak peek clip of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? opens with Larissa, Colt, and Debbie seated an outside table. That sounds like a nightmare in Nevada, but hey, it's probably easier for the crew to film that way. Things are sort of tense even before Larissa spills the truth, but Debbie's current dye job is looking great in this lighting. “Debbie,” Larissa says nervously. “I have something to say to you.” She immediately grimaces with anxiety. You can tell how much Debbie's opinion used to mean to her. “Okay,” Debbie says. This isn't a surprise to her — because the 90 Day Fiance crew is all set up and the tension is palpable. Debbie has clearly been thinking of what Colt and Larissa could be planning to spring on her. “You're pregnant?” Debbie guesses. If that had been the case, Debbie would have been shattering the tension effortlessly. But that's not the news that Larissa had to reveal. “I have kids,” Larissa says seriously, slowly nodding. Debbie, though clearly surprised, nods. “You have children,” she says, confirming that she understood Larissa despite her accent. Keep in mind that, for this point, Debbie and Larissa have been sharing a house for months and months. This isn't news to Colt, but neither of them have shared this information wtih Debbie in all of this time. Larissa nods. Debbie begins to visibly tear up. Larissa glances, both apologetically and awkwardly, back and forth between Debbie and her son, Colt. Clearly, she expects Colt to say something to his mother. Instead, he apparently just sits there awkwardly as a spectator. He … could really work on his social skills. That would be ideal if he wants to continue with his reality career or just being a person. After a few moments of silence (or what has been edited to look like silence), Debbie stands up and goes inside. Inside, the camera follows Debbie as she says “I need a drink.” “They haven't told me anything about it,” Debbie confirms to the camera in a voiceover. And Debbie is, frankly, more than a little pissed. “I am so angry with her,” Debbie expresses in a confessional moment. She says that it's absolutely her business “because it's our family, and I need to know what's going on.” That is extremely fair. “I'm a little disappointed that you guys didn't tell me,” Debbie admits, having rejoined her son and her daughter-in-law at the table. “It hurt me that no one had discussed it with me,” she confesses. “I always wanted to tell you,” Larissa bursts in. “But it's a complicated situation.” “From the beginning,” Larissa observes. “We don't get along.” “So, every time that I see the way that you take care of Coltee,” Larissa explains. “'How will I explain to you that I have kids in Brazil?'” “It was chickens–t of her to do that,” Debbie admits. “I'm sorry,” she adds. “But it was.” “I love Colt,” Larissa explains at the table. “So what will his mother, that did everything for him, think about it?” “When Larissa told me how she felt about me,” Debbie later confesses to the camera. “I understood why she didn't tell me about having children. “She was scared,” Debbie assesses. “And I don't think she trusted anybody.” This Sunday's episode is certainly going to contain some bombshells.

Caryn Chandler: Daughter and Troubled Son Make Little People, Big World Debut!

This week on Little People, Big World , Amy Roloff wasn’t sure how to react when her ex Matt started bonding with Chris Marek . But Matt also spent time bonding with Caryn Chandler’s young adult children in their first-ever appearance on reality television. It was heartwarming to see them appear on screen, especially considering Caryn’s son’s troubled history with the law. “I wanted to bring my kids to the farm to have lunch with Matt,” Caryn shared on Little People, Big World . Connor Chandler is 19. Brittany Chandler is 22. “As we continue to get closer and plan a future together,” Caryn expressed. “It’s really important to me for you to have relationship with them.” “And,” she continued. “I know they would like that as well.” She’s right — though they have already known Matt for a long time. Matt Roloff is happy to spend the time with them, too. “Back when Brittany and Connor were young,” Matt recalls. He continues: “they used to come and help out during pumpkin season.” “So her kids know my kids well,” Matt observes. “And,” he expresses. “I look forward for her family and my family getting closer.” Caryn herself took to Instagram to rave about her children making their Little People, Big World debut. “So what have you been up to?” Connor asked during the episode. “Getting ready for pumpkin season?” Brittany chimed in. “Mhmm,” Matt replied on camera. He was eating. “Has it been weird getting ready for it without her?” Brittany asked. Caryn stopped working on the family farm last spring. That’s sensible — she’s a girlfriend, not an employee. “Mhm,” Matt replied to Brittany’s question. “It’s interesting because I feel we took like a flip flop,” Brittany observed. She explained: “because she’s been working for what 10-12 years out on the farm, Monday through Friday.” “So now,” Brittany notes. “Connor and I get up every morning at 6 a.m.” “Yeah,” Connor agress. “I’m like ‘hey bye mom!'” “But it’s nice having you around more,” Brittany expressed. “I mean I notice the subtle changes.” “Like I come home and I’m like ‘oh how nice, she did our laundry today,'” Brittany says. “So I think she does get bored.” Connor has experienced some troubles as a teenager. In 2016 and in 2017, Connor was jailed for “theft in the first degree.” While he thankfully received probation, it went on longer than originally planned. He reportedly failed to appear for one of his court hearings, which caused the court to impose an extension upon his probation. The good news is that, last summer, Connor shared that he was now sober, having been addicted to drugs for years. Though the Chandler chidlren have known the Roloffs for over a decade, this was their first appearance on the show. The reason for this was Caryn’s contentious divorce from their father, Joseph Chandler, years ago. The divorce agreement included a stipulation that the kids never appear on Little People, BIg World . Weird, but whatever. Now that they’re adults, they can decide if they go on camera. Apparently, it was time. View Slideshow: Matt Roloff and Caryn Chandler Share Special Photo, Spark Engagement Chatter

Jeannie Mai Reveals She Was Sexually Abused At 9 And Mama Mai Didn’t Believe Her

Source: Araya Diaz / Getty Jeannie Mai Opens Up About Being Sexually Abused By A Family Member *Trigger Warning* Story details explicit sexual abuse. Jeannie Mai is opening up about a traumatic experienc e from her childhood that caused her to stop speaking to her mom for over 10 years. In a recent youtube clip, Jeannie says around the age of 9 her mom took on a second job, leaving her in the care of her abuser. We needed to find a babysitter, so we called upon a family member. He came over every single day and stayed with me after school.” She does not name her abuser,  but Jeannie says he was “16 or 17” and became an “iconic person” in her life who she looked up to at the time. Her mom also thought he was a well-behaved teenager and was being helpful at the time. “I just remember one day this person sitting very close to me, we were playing video games, and he started to touch my thigh. I was also just stunned because I had never been intimately touched like that so I couldn’t tell if it was wrong, I just knew I was noticing it.” As the days went on, Jeannie says the touching progressed into him taking off her clothes, exposing himself to her and instructing her on how to touch him. When she told her mom, she didn’t get the reaction she was hoping for. “I remember him pulling me into that shower and it was the first time I have a seen a grown man and what he looked like,” she recalls. “I remember him telling me to touch him in certain ways.This happened every day for a few weeks, and then it turned into months and I remember one year going by,” she adds. “I didn’t say anything because I was afraid I began to get angry because now I’m telling my mom that he’s taking off my clothes and you said, ‘I don’t believe you. Unfortunately, Mama Mai’s denial of the situation caused the abuse to continue. Jeannie eventually ran away from home at 16. “When I don’t believe it, I just let it go,” says Mama Mai, explaining that what she was hearing from her daughter didn’t match up with the person she thought she knew. “I don’t see anything bad about him.” Here is the entire video of Jeannie’s explaining what she went through. It’s an emotional video.

Larissa Lima Shuts Down Trolls Who Call Her a Gold Digging Skank

Earlier this week, 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? star  Larissa Lima explained shy she had “abandoned” her two kids in Brazil. But fans have a lot of questions about a lot more than just her family. Some of the questions that Larissa receives on social media, day in and day out, are downright cruel. Despite the mean-spiirited origins of many of these questions, Larissa decided to respond. In some cases, her answers are illuminating. In others, it's just fun to watch her casually deflect the hate that trolls spew at her. Take a look: 1. Larissa Lima answered fan questions Unfortunately, in this case, the term “fan” is fairly relative. Larissa was bombarded with some of the nastiest, cruelest messages. The real surprise is how many she answered. … 2. What gives her strength? “God, family, and friends,” Larissa answers. But she’s the first to admit that she invites adversity. “I do like to be controversial,” she confesses. “I believe it is better than boring.” 3. But why is she so darn dramatic? Larissa cites having watched La Usurpadora, a 1990s telenovela. Paola Bracho is an infamous television villain from that series. 4. Did she really get nothing from Coltee? “My green card was canceled,” Larissa grimly confirms. “I’m still the one responsible for my success.” 5. Why doesn’t she talk about Colt? Larissa cites her divorce agreement, which forbids either party from disparaging the other. For Larissa and Colt, that basically means that they can’t even discuss the other. Larissa asks that people stop asking her about Colt. 6. Is she a gold digger? No, Larissa says that she is a founding member of the “cheap digger strong women club.” Left with nothing, she notes, she is “with my own strength building my life.” View Slideshow

Source: Bruce Glikas / Getty Wendy Williams’ estranged husband Kevin Hunter reportedly got into a physical fight with their son in a store parking lot near the family home in New Jersey. According to TMZ , Wendy dropped Kevin Jr. off at the house to pick something up with plans on returning shortly after.

Things are not always how they appear,” he said. Earlier today, Kevin released a statement about his involvement with the Hunter foundation, saying, “Although The Hunter Foundation in its current form will dissolve, the important work will live on. I plan on launching a new foundation in the near future to continue the important mission in helping those struggling with drug addiction and substance abuse.

Amy Roloff Puts Chris Marek Troll Squarely in Her Place

Amy Roloff has had a tough go of it on social media these days. For whatever reason, an unfortunate number of users across this medium take issue with the Little People, Big World star on a frequent basis. Over what? Her indecision over what to do with her family’s farm, for starters. As TLC viewers have witnessed over the past several episodes, ex-husband Matt Roloff seems pretty anxious to sell the property and move on. But Amy is far less certain and is understandably taking her time with such a major life decision. At least we think it’s understandable; a bunch of critics out there think Amy sucks a whole lot for dragging her feet on this topic. Amy, however, typically remains above this sort of online scrum. She also never jumps in to fight with a troll or to express her displeasure with what some individual says about her. (Matt, to his credit, will do this on her behalf sometimes , though.) However, while Amy doesn’t feel a need to defend herself on Twitter or Instagram, she did recently swoop in to defend her very serious boyfriend, Chris Marek. Roloff and Marek have been together for two years and may get married someday . He seems like a very nice person who gets along not just with Amy and not even just with her children… but with her ex-husband as well. (On just this week’s episode of Little People, Big World — which you can watch below — Amy was taken aback by just how well Chris and Matt get along after the two agreed to go drive some tractors together.) And yet, despite Marek’s positive qualities, fans have often refused to accept him as a positive influence in Amy’s life. They think he’s creepy and is dating Amy for all the wrong reasons . Watch Little People, Big World Season 14 Episode 8 Online And Amy has finally spoken out about the disdain. On Tuesday, ahead of the latest Little People, Big World episode, Amy shared a selfie of herself and Marek, writing as a caption: “Tonight @tlc LPBW — Little People BIG World is on — I hope you’ll be watching/ “The big decision is almost here. I know a long time in the making but I do make one in the end and the other fun challenging life going ons with Zach Tori Jackson, Matt Caryn and Chris and I. Wow! “Can hardly believe just three episodes left in Season 14. Thank you all — you are the best.” Simple enough, right? And totally harmless? And yet, this promotional message inspired one follower to state that he/she doesn’t “like Chris.” Amy was prepared with a tremendous response, however: “Hmmm… but you’ve never met him,” she wrote in reply. BOOM! MIC DROP! What does one even say in return to such logic? I know I’ve never met him, but just seeing him act all kind and giving and supportive of you gives me a negative feeling? Sure, good luck with that one. We hate that total strangers say this sort of stuff online, but we love that Amy is able to rise above it, even clapping back in very respectful and straightforward fashion at times such as this. “I would definitely love to get married one day,” Amy, who was the wife of Matt for about 27 years, recently told Us Weekly, adding: “But it’s not something that I’m intentionally pursuing. If I say yes, then that means my whole heart, everything is into it. … I do think [marriage] is forever.” She concluded, clearly talking about Marek: “Relationships go through seasons. You are not the same person when you are 20 years old and when you become empty nesters or going through kids and all that. “Both of you are going through that stuff, so keeping the communication and sharing with each other, I think, is very important.” We wish these two love birds the very best of luck.
