Joy-Anna Duggar Reveals Due Date, Ultrasound Video!

It can be tough to keep track of all the Duggar pregnancies these days. It seems not a week goes by without the family announcing that yet another #LittleDuggar is on the way, and if it’s reached the point where fans are feeling overwhelemed than surely the expectant mothers must really be feeling the pressure — right? Well, that might be the case for most families who are preparing to welcome five offspring before the end of the calendar year — but the Duggars are a different breed. From a young age, Jim Bob and Michelle’s children were taught that procreation was their primary reason for being. And so, while most 21 year olds might be feeling a little overwhelmed if they were expecting their second child in just over a year, Joy-Anna Duggar cleary feels this is exactly what she’s meant to be doing. Joy-Anna Duggar Ultrasound Joy shared the above ultrasound video with her Instagram followers this week. Fans were thrilled with the way Joy’s expectant bundle of joy moved about the uterus, and they were equally ecstatic with the news of exactly when the little tyke will be entering the world. “Finally got our 10 week ultrasound video downloaded!!” Joy captioned the clip. “Look how tiny it’s little arms and legs are!! Looking forward to meeting this baby in 6 & 1/2 months!!!” She added the hashtags: “#babyforsyth2 #6moremonthstogo #childrenareablessingfromGod” Needless to say, it’s all very on-brand for the Duggar clan. Six and a half months means that the as-yet unnamed little boy or girl will likely be arriving sometime in mid- to late-November. Joy and husband Austin Forsyth appear to be absolutely over the moon — despite the complications that she experienced during her last pregnancy. Joy welcomed her first child, son Gideon, back in February. And to say that the birth didn’t go smoothly would be a massive understatement. Like so many of her sisters, Joy was planning a home birth, but shen had ton be rushed to a nearby hospital when it was discovered that the baby was breech. Thankfully, both mother and son were unharmed by the difficult delivery. And it seems the painful experience left Joy without any trepidation. And as a bonus, this time around, she and Austin don’t have to grapple with those ugly “shotgun wedding” rumors. That must feel like a pleasant change of pace.

Josh Duggar BEGS Judge to Remove His Name From Latest Scandal

Even Duggar fans were hesitant to celebrate the news that Anna Duggar is pregnant with baby #6 . Imagine the burden and stigma of growing up with that creep Josh Duggar as your father! After all of those scandals! Well, Josh is embroiled in yet another scandal, and is begging a judge to let him off the hook. As we previously reported, Josh Duggar is being sued for trying to steal a man’s land . See, Josh used his wealth to buy up a bunch of land in Arkansas. It’s a free country, and he can do that. But you have to tell the owner about it and give him the money, first. Josh thinks that he bought the land, but a man named Carl Echols bought the land in 2006. Since then, he has paid taxes on the property and even lived on it. The specifics are that, in 2016, Josh’s real estate company, ALB Investments, purchased five acres of land. If you want an idea of how remote this land is, the purchase price was apparently a mere $1,000. Of course, Echols says that he paid $17,500 when he bought the land from his cousin, Edward L. Lewis. Now, Echols is suing Lewis for breach of contract — for, you know, selling land that he didn’t own and hadn’t owned in a decade. And he’s suing ALB Investments for the land title. Earlier this month, Josh’s attorneys have argued that ALB Investments are in “good standing.” (And sure, if you don’t count being owned by a guy who famously molested 5 little girls,  The legal team is asking the judge to remove them from the lawsuit, arguing that they should never have been a part of it in the first place. The judge has yet to make a ruling, but Josh is asking that his name be removed from the matter. Truth be told, it sounds like ALB Investments is just as much a victim in this as Echols himself. Josh occassionally appears in Duggar group photos, where they hope to sneak him in without reprisal from fans. It’s been years since Josh Duggar has appeared on reality television, and it’s not by choice. TLC may allow Jim Bob and Michelle on their show, but even that network has to draw the line somewhere. Josh’s cheating scandal and his (lol) “porn scandal” were big deals for his family. But it was when it was revealed that Josh had molested five young girls, including his younger sisters, that viewers raised hell and Josh got fired. The fact that Jim Bob and Michelle had worked to cover this up got 19 Kids and Counting canceled. By the skin of their teeth, the Duggars managed to remain on television, piggybacking onto the spinoff,  Counting On . But even though his family believes that his evil deeds have been wiped away through his faith, Josh is persona non grata for the network. That has had a real impact on his livelihood, and forced him to focus upon his business interests. Josh has a used car business, and is estimated to be worth about $200,000. That’s no chump change, and it means that he can certainly absorb the $1,000 property loss without his soon-to-be-six children starving. But Jim Bob is worth millions, while Josh is merely comfortable . Josh has to work harder than some of his siblings, in part because he has so many mouths to feed. But also because he’s not raking in money from reality television — or the opportunities that accompany it. Frankly, nobody was going to seek product endorsements from Josh before this lawsuit. And land-stealer isn’t even on anybody’s Top 5 list on why Josh’s brand is deeply toxic. View Slideshow: The Duggars: Who’s Courting? Pregnant? Next In Line? [UPDATED]

Britney Spears Seeks Restraining Order Against Awful Ex Manager

Even though Britney Spears checked out of the mental health facility weeks ago, the drama over her 30 day treatment isn’t over. But Britney’s legal team is taking action to target one major source of misinformation. Britney is getting a restraining order against former managar Sam Lutfi, and this isn’t even the first time she’s had to take this step. Entertainment Tonight has confirmed that Britney Spears has filed for a temporary restraining order against Sam Lutfi. He is her former manager — from many, many years ago. According to the accusation within court documents, Lutfi has been harassing Britney. What’s more is that he has allegedly been harassing her mother, Lynne Spears. That is … super gross to hear. And it gets worse. Britney’s attorneys accuse Lutfi of sending harassing messages to her and to her family. He is also accused of using social media as a weapon to post false and “disruptive” material intended to whip her fans into a frenzy. Lutfi is accuses of calling for vigilante action in order to interfere with Britney’s conservatorship. He threatened to release Britney’s private information, including his personal collection from when he was her manager. Her counsel argues that Lutfi’s behavior has hurt her mental health, her emotional well being, and tainted her reputation with her fans. Sam Lutfi is a familiar name to Britney’s longtime fans. The mention of her ex manager does not evoke positive feelings for … just about anyone. She previously secured a restraining order against Lutfi way back in January of 2009. He was ordered toa void contacting Spears. The order also prohibited him from coming within 250 yards of her, her property, or her family members. Clearly, in this age of social media, further restrictions are necessary. Lutfi was part of an apparent misinformation campaign during Britney’s 30 days of treatment at a mental health facility. The cries of “Free Britney,” coupled with allegations that she was being held against her will, took off on Twitter. It was so bad that Britney had to release a video assuring fans that “all is well.”  In the captions of that video, Britney dismissed Lutfi’s fake “evidence” directly. (Or, strictly speaking, whoever uploaded that video to Britney’s Instagram wrote it in the caption — she does not handle her own social media) “These fake emails everywhere were crafted by Sam Lutfi years ago,” Britney’s caption read. She made this video before she even left the mental health facility. “I did not write them,” she emphasized. “He was pretending to be me,” Britney accused. “And communicating with my team with a fake email address.” That sounds like an absolute nightmare. “Nice try Lou but this isn’t going to work this time around,” Lutfi responded. He asserted that he can “unequivocally state [he] never wrote nor had access to her e-mail.” “Her team’s desperate attempt to direct negative attention onto me (yet again) is a rather ineffective way to overshadow the FreeBritney movement,” he added. “In addition to making certain people in her camp look bad,” Lutfi accused. “The e-mails in question show a woman capable of running her own life.” He called that “a narrative they apparently want to hide.” Now, one thing on which we and Lutfi can agree — perhaps the only thing — is that Britney is a grown-ass adult who can make her own choices. She has a conservatorship hearing coming up on May 10 — that is this week, folks. Britney’s mother, Lynne Spears, will attend — this is the first time in 11 years that she has taken issue with the conservatorship. If Britney really is being unduly restricted, we hope that Britney will be able to speak for herself on the subject. Her mother is expected to advocate for her, at least in regard to Britney’s treatment. We hope that the court reaches the right decision for Britney. She deserves the world.

Little People, Big World Recap: Amy’s Past… Revealed!

The future of Amy Roloff looks both promising and unclear at the moment. As has been well-documented this far on Little People, Big World, the veteran reality star is very content with boyfriend Chris Marek, yet she also isn’t certain whether she wants to sell the farm and move on. The latest installment of this TLC series, however, took a look back at Amy’s past, not a look ahead to see what may be next. And it revealed something heretofore unknown about the mother of four in the process. Visiting her family home on this episode, Amy felt comfortable opening up about her less-than-ideal childhood with her beau, telling everyone about an ulcer that left her “sick half the time” in grade school and middle school. It was a very serious situation. Attributing the condition to “nervousness” and “stress,” Amy explained she feels like she “brought on the stress” herself, explaining; “I think I worried a lot about what the kids always thought.” Why? Because of her stature, of course. Amy said she was the only little person in her class. “I didn’t do as much as I would have hoped in high school. I did not venture out, because I did not want to be rejected,” she said on air, adding that she “felt very vulnerable” at almost all times. On one especially emotional occasion, she thought back to her her dad returning home from work to convince her she had nothing to fear when it came to flaunting herself, despite being shorter than average. It was a helpful pep talk back then. “If you don’t go to school, look at those people who do not get to know you and be your friend,” she recalled him saying. “You get to choose who you want to be friends with.” “It has been with me ever since,” she told the cameras of these sage words from her father. As a mother of one little person herself (son Zach Roloff ), Amy tries very hard to set a similarly positive and inspiring model. She’s mostly succeeded to date at that, but she was very afraid on this episode that her admission would somehow come across as a failure to Marek. Might he judge her or think less of her? Of course not! “The health problems that Amy had growing up, that was news to me,” Chris confessed to the camera. “I didn’t realize she had all those physical difficulties. Hearing about all she had been through to become the woman he loves, Marek added: “I have a greater appreciation for the strong person she is today.” What a perfect response. No wonder Amy just told Us Weekly she would “definitely” like to get married again someday. This Marek guys sounds like a total keeper.

Britney Spears’ Mom Going to War for Daughter’s Freedom!

On Tuesday, we reported that Britney Spears’ mother is eyeing her daughter’s conservatorship . For the first time in over a decade, she’s getting involved in the legal order that gives  Now, we’re learning why she wants a part in guiding her daughter — and that Britney’s dad is pissed at the interference. As we previously reported, Lynne Spears has filed notice that she will attend an upcoming hearing on Britney’s conservatorship. The conservatorship has been in place for 11 years, and Britney’s father, Jamie, largely has control. Though Britney is a 37-year-old adult, she has to obtain her father’s permission for a number of professional and financial decisions. Lynne and Jamie have been separated for years. Until she filed her notice on Monday, she had never appeared interested in interfering with the conservatorship. TMZ reports that Lynne doesn’t just hold a passing interest in how the conservatorship is going. She has hired her own attorney to ask the court to include her in Britney’s treatment plan. The report notes that Lynne is not vying for involvement in the conservatorship, but that she wants to be involved with this particular issue. TMZ also makes it clear that Jamie and Lynne have very different ideas about how Britney should proceed, moving forward. Lynne’s lawyer will argue that it is in Britney’s best interest that her mother have a voice in these decisions. Jamie Spears has managed Britney since the conservatorship was first granted. It was initially only supposed to last for a weekend. Then, it was made permanent. TMZ heard from a source that Jamie is still concerned with Britney’s decision-making while doctors try to find the right combination of meds for her. “Britney is making bad decisions and it’s a problem,” an insider claimed. It sounds like Jamie and Lynne have very different ideas about how to approach this. Jamie is apparently convinced that rigid structure will help Britney during this difficult time. In addition to transitioning to a new medication, she’s also grappling with her father’s recent health crisis. Lynne apparently thinks that Britney is old enough to make more of her own decisions, particularly regarding her health treatment. There may be some real wisdom in that. People who are never allowed to make choices for themselves can struggle to make those decisions later on. But apparently, Jamie thinks that Lynne’s attitudes are too “permissive.” TMZ says that Jamie thinks that Lynne is too focused on Britney liking her than on acting in her best interests. All of this comes on the heels of Britney’s 30-day treatment in a mental health facility. Fans spread rumors that Britney had been locked away against her will on her father’s orders. Britney herself had to make a video assuring her devoted fans that “all is well.” When it comes to someone as famous and beloved as Britney, the truth can be difficult to ascertain. Just because someone in her father’s orbit believes that she’s making poor decisions doesn’t mean that it’s true, after all. What we know about Britney is that she’s talented, successful, kind, and that she’s a first-rate supermom. It sounds like Lynne hopes that Britney can have a chance to be her own person, or at least manage some aspects of her own health. Again, she’s not even challenging the conservatorship — just trying to advocate for her daughter. View Slideshow: Britney Spears Fans Accuse Her Team of Orchestrating Cover-Up, Faking Pics & Videos

Jenelle Evans: FIRED from Teen Mom 2! For Real!

Jenelle Evans is a goner. Mere days after the controversial reality star's husband murdered her family's dog, Nugget, Teen Mom 2 producers followed through on what had been rumored all week: They gave Evans the proverbial pink slip. She will soon join David Eason on the unemployment line. How did it come to this? And what did MTV say in its statement?  Scroll down to find out! 1. It Had to Come to This, Right? Evans was being featured less and less often on the current season of Teen Mom 2 because her husband had been fired from the show. 2. Wait, Huh? With cameras refusing to shoot any scene that included Eason, this lessened Jenelle’s role to a tremendous degree. 3. She Tried to Make Herself Relevant Again According to a recent report, Jenelle had tried to spice up her storyline and film alongside Briana DeJesus , but producers shot down this idea. 4. So, Yes, Evans Saw the Writing on the Wall And this was BEFORE Eason beat little Nugget bloody and then shot the dog dead. 5. This Really Did Happen Eason has admitted to killing the canine because he claimed it attacked his daughter, Ensley. 6. This is What Jenelle Wrote in Response: Nugget… I’m crying everyday. I love you so much and I’m so sorry. I’m speechless. You were my side kick and knew the moment I felt bad and would cuddle with me. You still had a lot to learn and a lot to grow from your lessons. Everyday I wake up you’re not here, when I come home you’re not here, when I go to bed… you’re not here. You’re gone forever and there’s no coming back. View Slideshow

Jinger Duggar: Is She Really Feuding With Her Parents?!

Rebel. The word has followed Jinger Duggar relentlessly for the past several years, and it seems she’s not ashamed of the title. It started when Jinger began wearing sweatpants in defiance of her family’s dress code, and Jinger has been engaging in one act of defiance after the other ever since. Now, it’s important to note that Jinger is only a rebel by the standards of her ultra-conservative family. She’s a married mom and devout Christian who’s famous for her devotion to her husband and daughter, as well as her unassuming demeanor. But she’s also strayed from the path her parents carved out for her on a number of occasions. Jinger’s most recent high-profile act of rebellion was her decision to move to Los Angeles so that her husband, Jeremy Vuolo, can attend divinity school there. But that’s certainly not the only way that Jinger has outraged her fundamentalist folks this year. One mini-scandal that the Duggars have yet to acknowledge publicly is Jinger’s avowed support of the LGBT community . We learned that the 25-year-old does not share her parents’ backward belief system when she posted supportive comments pertaining to her brother-in-law, Charles Vuolo, and a short film he made about trans rights. These may seem like very minor infractions, but dissent is simply not tolerated in the Duggar family, particularly when that dissent comes from a young woman. The situation has gotten so bad in recent weeks that it was widely rumored that Jinger had been disowned by her parents . That doesn’t seem to be the case (the more Duggar-obsessed corners of the internet love jumping to conclusions), but it does look as though there’s some serious friction between Jinger and her parents. Several sources have claimed that Jinger is no longer on speaking terms with Jim Bob and Michelle. While we have no way of knowing for certain if that’s the case, it is interesting that the two couples have not interacted directly on social medisa in several months. This, despite the fact that the Vuolos live about 800 miles away from the Duggars in Laredo, Texas. A source claims that Jim Bob and Michelle are “thrilled” about their daughter’s relocation, but the couple has issued a statement or commented on any of her recent posts about the move. In all likelihood, Jim Bob and Michelle are going to great lenghts to make it clear to Meghan that they don’t agree with her recent choices. But she’s almost certainly not kicked out of the family. If the Josh Duggar sex scandals taught us anything, it’s that the Duggars are a vry forgiving lot. View Slideshow: Jinger Duggar Shares Adorable Pics of Her “Little Family,” Melts Fans’ Hearts

Kim Kardashian: I’m Gonna Be a Super Important Lawyer!

Kim Kardashian issued a warning to fans on Keeping Up with the Kardashians last night: Enjoy my naked photos while you can , she basically said, because you’ll only have them to ogle for about another decade or so! About one month after news broke that Kardashian was studying to become a lawyer , the reality star expounded on her plans in far more detail on the latest installment of this E! hit. In a revealing few minutes of the show, Kim opened up about her decision to start a four-year apprenticeship with a law firm in San Francisco last summer, with the goal of taking the bar exam in 2022. She is NOT messing around, people. Unbeknownst to many, the 38-year old has been working with author and CNN commentator Van Jones and attorney Jessica Jackson, cofounders of #cut50, a national bipartisan advocacy group on criminal-justice reform, for months, visiting prisons, petitioning governors. As you likely do know well by now, she successfully petitioned President Donald Trump last year to commute the life sentence of Alice Marie Johnson , a nonviolent drug offender. And she said last night that prison reform is atop her list of priorities going forward. “It’s kind of crazy because I’m learning it all as I go,” she said on camera. “I spend more time on this than I do anything else. It’s insane but it’s so fun to be around people that are super smart and get it and want the same thing.” Kim’s father was an attorney. He famously helped defend O.J. Simpson in his 1994 murder trial. Kardashian said on air that her dad discouraged her way back in the day from joining this family business, but that working on behalf of Johnson has “motivated” her to try again. “I remember in the OJ case, I would go be going through it and Kourtney would yell at me: ‘Stop going through all of dad’s stuff!’ ” she said of how she’s always had an interest in the law. Added Kim along these lines: “My dad always taught me that hard work is really important and to really commit to things, so my goal would be in like, 10 years, to give up being Kim K and just focus on this and be an attorney and fight for so many deserving people.” It would seemingly be very easy to make fun of Kim Kardashian here. It seems insane of her to think she’s gonna suddenly become a successful and important lawyer, right? This is the same woman who is only famous because she had sex with Ray J on camera. But she actually does seem to acknowledge that it will take time — and let’s imagine for a moment that she can pull it off. We’ve mocked Kim on so many occasions in the past for NOT using her global influence on anything more useful that offering terrible diet tips and/or promoting ridiculous weight loss supplements . We’re not about to hurl any shade now when Kardashian talks about using it for the actual greater good. “I’m dealing with my three kids, I’m dealing with my career, the fourth baby coming and the stress of law school,” Kim said of the challenges ahead. “Just because you do an apprenticeship does not mean that it’s anything less – I mean, you have to put in 18 hours a week. It is a full commitment. I won’t have time for events, for favors, for friends, for literally anything, for four years.” Kanye West is fully on board, however, and Kim has always said she works hard. Here is her chance to prove it. “I’m not afraid to work hard,” she concluded. “It’s going to be really hard but it’s also really important to me to keep this quiet for a while so I can stay committed and focused.” View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Basically Got Naked on This Red Carpet and Twitter Came at Her So Hard

Kate Middleton: Desperate to Get Pregnant Following Meghan Markle Baby News?!

As you’ve likely heard by now, Meghan Markle welcomed her first child this morning. Obviously, it’s glorious news, and the whole world is sharing in the happiness of the Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, who’s overjoyed at becoming a father . Of course, it wouldn’t be a major development involving the royal family if it didn’t prompt tabloid media outlets all over the world to issue hot takes and attempt to stir up drama. Having apparently grown weary of the ” Meghan and Harry are moving to Africa the second their baby is born!” narrative, several sites have changed tack and are now pushing a different brand of nonsense. Now the obvious BS you’re being asked to accept is the story that Kate is jealous of Meghan and wants to have another baby in order to reclaim the spotlight. “Catherine would like another baby,” one source tells Radar Online. “She loves children and is prepared to put herself through another pregnancy even though they have been complicated by severe morning sickness in the past.” “Complicated” is putting it mildly, of course. During her first three pregnancies, Kate suffered from Hyperemesis Gravidarum , an agonizing condition that results in incessant stomach pain and vomiting. According to WebMD, the inability to keep food and water down often results in “dehydration, vitamin  and mineral deficit, and the loss of greater than five percent of their original body weight.” Several UK tabloids pushed the narrative that Kate became “dangerously thin” as a result of her condition. Now, some of those same outlets would like you to believe she’s willing to go through all that again at the age of 37 simply because she feels she’s not getting enough attention. To be clear — we’re not saying Kate will definitively not have a fourth child. But we are saying that if she does, it won’t be because she’s jealous of Meghan’s time in center stage. Considering all the unwanted media attention Kate has received in the wake of rumors that Prince William is having an affair with Rose Hanbury , we’re sure she’s more than happy to let someone else have the spotlight for a bit. And we think it’s safe to assume that, like the rest of the world, she’s been eager to congratulate the Duchess of Sussex on becoming a mom.
