Offset: Couples Counseling Saved My Marriage to Cardi B!

Now that they’re back together, Offset doesn’t want to lose Cardi B again . But it takes more than expert pipe-laying and avoiding groupies to make a relationship truly successful. Offset explains that he and Cardi are in marriage counseling to keep their  In a new interview on “The Breakfast Club,” Offset opened up about his desire to not upset Cardi. When asked if he was afraid of losing her again, he replies: “For sho! Yeah!” But he explains that the two of them are working through their challenges. “You gotta go through steps and different things so we can grow,” he reasons. And one tool has been majorly helpful in helping them to process their relationship: marriage counseling. But don’t expect to see Offset and Cardi B appear on Marriage Boot Camp: Celebrity Edition any time soon. “Not on the TV though,” Offset clarifies. “Real behind the scenes.” He explains that he and his wife are working on “getting to know each other.” As has been demonstrated time and time again, reality television is an okay place to meet someone, but a terrible place for relationship growth. Real marriage counseling, Offset explains, is “getting to know who you’re with and appreciate them all the way around.” Charlemagne the God then asks for clarification: Did Offset and Cardi finish with their marriage counseling? Is everything fixed now? Offset replies that no, it’s really more of a process. He and his wife are “Working through it,” Offset answers. “Gotta work, gotta keep,” Offset emphasizes. “Don’t stop … we’re young, man.” In other words, he’s serious about staying with his wife, and that means that he doesn’t want to be complacent or just rely upon wishful thinking. Of course, the primary impetus behind Offset and Cardi B’s separation last year wasn’t some sort of mystery. It also wasn’t an emotional death by a thousand cuts.  Offset was banging other women. Cardi had just brought Kulture into this world, but she gave her cheating husband the boot. There are women in this world who would be happy to have a rich rapper husband who sleeps around. Cardi, one of the most talented women on the planet, is not one of them. Offset was very lucky, because Cardi decided to give him a second chance. Their reunion brought mixed reactions from fans. First of all, some had felt that Cardi was always out of Offset’s league. That’s … really between her and Offset. Secondly, Cardi was very blunt about why she was giving him a second chance. After their first reunion, she explained that his dick game was out of this world and that she had missed it too much. Finally, a lot of fans fear that Cardi truly believes that Offset is the only man who could truly love Kulture as a father. Obviously, that is untrue. But what fans think — and we say this in the nicest way possible — doesn’t really matter. What we think doesn’t really matter. This is about Cardi and Offset. And it sounds like they’re taking their marriage seriously. Hopefully, history will not repeat itself. View Slideshow: Offset Lavishes Cardi B with Ridiculously Expensive Christmas Gifts

Jill Duggar: Is She Even Qualified to Homeschool Her Kids?!

Jill Duggar has been in the spotlight quite a bit these past two weeks. And it’s all pretty impressive, especially when you consider that she hasn’t shot a scene for her family’s reality show in over a year. Much of the controversy has had to do with Jill’s seemingly troubled marriage. The scrutiny started with rumors of Derick Dillard cheating on Jill last year. They intensified when the couple seemed to distance themselves from one another on social media and when they spent no time with her family over the holiday season. In her own indirect way, Jill has addressed the divorce rumors , and it seems that for the time being at least, she and Derick are not going their separate ways. Of course, if she thought that would put a stop to the rumor mill, she’s got another thing coming. Instead, Duggar obsessives have merely switched gears and are now focusing on Jill’s child-rearing methods. Like so many of her sisters, Jill has been mom-shamed on numerous occasions. She’s been accused of neglect, of improper nutritional practices, and of forcing her children to walk several miles for Chick-Fil-A . But these days, most of the criticism of Jill’s parenting skills has to do with her decision to homeschool her kids. Many have pointed to Jill’s kids’ lack of verbal and mathematical skills as evidence that she’s not up to the task. And the problem, these people claim, is not only that Jill has no experience as a teacher, but also that she’s relying on seriously flawed methods and materials. The Duggars homeschool curriculum has been heavily criticized in the past, largely due to a leaked lesson plan which teaches children sexual assault victims are often to blame for their assailants’ crimes. But that’s not the only reason that the Duggars’ methods have drawn criticism. Like her siblings, Jill relies on materials from the Institute for Basic Life Principles, a highly controversial organization founded by disgraced sex offender Bill Gothard . The curriculum relies on  “the teachings of Jesus Christ” to teach homeschooled children the basics in “linguistics, law, history, science, and medicine.” Nothing like a 2,000-year-old book to help your kids stay up-to-date on science! We kid, but perhaps if Jill’s kids appeared to be up to speed, her followers would be more accepting of her controversial methods. As it is, she may want to brace herself for more criticism.

Momo Challenge Urges Kids to Harm Themselves. Don’t Let Them.

The Momo Challenge is here, and it makes the Tide Pod challenge look like a parent's dream. A horrifying image appears in children's videos and on their messaging apps, instructing them to harm themselves and others or even to commit suicide. And the worst thing is that it's been going on for much longer than anyone realized. Our nightmares have a new face. Reports have been circulating about a “challenge” appearing on WhatsApp and YouTube and targeted at young children. Children will watch a YouTube video that appears to be a children's television program and they will see Momo during a jarring intermission. Alternatively, they will simply seek out Momo on a messaging app like WhatsApp. A scary face frightening children is only the beginning, however. “Momo” then challenges children, sometimes in stages. Ultimately, this challenge — like some other disturbing pranks played on children — can cause them to harm themselves. Some of these messages include instructions on how to commit suicide. Others are even more insidiious. One of the reports circulating on social media said that children were instructed by “Momo” to turn on a gas stove while everyone is asleep. That report was not confirmed, but sends chills down people's spines. The first reports of this challenge arose in the summer of 2018. So why haven't children been raising the alarm? Why are most people only hearing about it now? For one thing, the children who are targeted are the youngest demographics, usually with ages in the single digits. But most significantly, some of the Momo material threatens to hurt or kill the parents of children who tell. Since this story began circulating, we've also seen stories of parents asking their children about it, only to have the children burst into tears of fear and relief. Little kids rarely have the life experience or perspective to understand when a threat is or is not plausible. There is no doubt that the Momo Challenge has scared the pants off of plenty of people, including young children and concerned parents. There is, however, good news. As multiple outlets have reported after taking a good, hard look at the story, there's less danger than there appears. While a small number of international deaths have been “linked to” Momo, there is no proof that they died because of the challenge. In fact, Forbes reports that this story has spread out of proportion among worried parents, not unlike past viral pranks. It's not that no one ever ate Tide Pods or that no teen has ever ingested hand sanitizer in an effort to get drunk. It's just that people perceive it as having happened much more than it actually did. Parenting experts recommend that parents use this as an opportunity to talk to their children about dangers on the internet. This includes strangers, pranks, and the “challenge culture” that infests parts of social media. It's also a good idea for parents to reconsider giving very young children unfiltered access to YouTube. We would make a radical suggestion that parents spend time around their wee ones so that they can always see or at least hear what they're watching. You know what's really sad? The face seen as “Momo” is originally a sculpture by an artist named Midori Hayashi. It's a fine piece, and was never meant to be used like this.

Oliver Maier: Dating Danielle Staub!

After a lot of heartbreak and multiple restraining orders , Danielle Staub finalized her divorce from Marty Caffrey just days ago. Now, she has revealed that she is in a new relationship. As you can imagine, Marty has something to say about it. The 56-year-old The Real Housewives of New Jersey star was spotted with a man at the beach at St. Bart’s. In fact, when she was seen on Monday, February, 25, Danielle was kissing him. (She later uploaded a photo, which you can see above) Us Weekly reports that the man in question is a businessman. His name is Oliver Maier. According to an inside source, “They are dating and very much in love.” It was on Thursday, February 21 that Danielle and Marty finalized their divorce. Ultimately, they were married for less than a year. The pair had been estranged even while living in the same house and had filed multiple restraining orders against each other. With that in mind, they were married in life for an even shorter time than they were on paper. It sounds safe to say that getting the divorce over with was a relief. Eyewitnesses said that the two of them barely looked at each other as they signed away their marriage. Danielle Staub previously revealed that booze ruined her marriage, though it was only one factor. She alleged that Marty was verbally and emotionally abusive. “There isn’t one woman that he’s had a conversation with that could say that he’s not an abusive man,” she said late last year. “It’s erratic behavior and it’s constant. I mean, constant,” she emphasized. “There’s not letting off that gas,” Danielle characterized. Speaking of things never letting up, Danielle really had to struggle to end the marriage. Why? Because, for a time, Marty apparently wasn’t willing to end their union without a fight. Romantic comedies may drive home the idea that people shouldn’t give up on their relationships. But if a marriage is toxic, it’s toxic, and fighting for your love is just going to make one or both of you miserable. “Danielle is extremely relieved this toxic situation is coming to a close,” an insider said on Thursday. “And,” that source continued, Danielle “looks forward to getting her life back.” In the mean time, they are apparently still living in the same house — according to Marty. (Guys, this was nuts even when they were married; I don’t care how big your house is, do not live with your ex if you can afford to move) “I don’t know him,” Marty tells Us . “Danielle still lives here.” “They couldn’t be dating any more than a week or two,” he assesses. “But that doesn’t matter to me.” And he had more to say. … “I hope he’s the one to write the check and buy my house and contents and pay her outstanding debt to me,” Marty expresses. This is still not a good enough reason for them to be living together. It’s bonkers. Marty explains: “It’ll save me the trouble of selling in the market.” “In fact,” he promises. “I’ll shake his hand and thank him.” “If she’s happy, I’m happy for her,” Marty concludes, adding: “We’ve both been dating.” View Slideshow: Danielle Staub: Accused of Financial, Verbal AND Emotional Abuse … by Her Own Husband!

Kristen Doute Reveals If She’s Still Dating Brian Carter

It was a night of splits on Vanderpump Rules this week. Lala Kent split with Randall Emmett and then parted ways with her sobriety; Tom Sandoval nearly split with Lisa Vanderpump over an argument that apparently involved fairy dust … and then there was Kristen Doute and her bizarre relationship with Brian Carter. As you probably already know, Kristen let her freak flag fly in a major way while she and the rest of the ladies were in Solvang last week. As far as we can tell, there’s a glowing orb buried somewhere in West Hollywood that serves as the source of Kristen’s sanity, and the farther she travels from it, the more psychotic she becomes. Really, she probably just pops a whole bunch of benzos to deal with her travel anxiety, then proceeds to binge drink because this is Vanderpump Rules , and the resulting cocktail gives us Crazy Kristen. Anyway, last week, there were not one but two men driving Loony Doute up the wall, even though they were hundreds of miles from Dutch Wine Country. One was James Kennedy, who continues to enjoy rent-free amenities between Kristen’s ears. The other was a bit more surprising, as Kristen railed against her longtime boyfriend, Brian Carter. From the sound of her tirade in Solvang, it seemed that she intended to dump his semi-employed ass the moment she got home. And when she confronted him (at Kristina’s barbecue, for some reason), Carter didn’t help his situation by insisting — sigh — that the couple’s therapist is “usually on [his] side.” So surely, by now, Kristen and Brian must have gone their separate ways, right? Well, not so fast. Back in November, Doute rushed to Carter’s defense right around the time the two of them took a trip to Australia together. “He and I definitely have a little bit of a bumpy season,” Kristen told Daily Mail Australia at the time. “This is what I signed up for, and we have to be honest. We’re not perfect … It’s really hard to watch things back and I think we’re both a little nervous.” Add to that the fact that just last week Carter gushed about Kristen on her birthday, and it seems that breakup wasn’t such a sure thing after all. “Tonight’s episode was heavy. I want to reiterate that @stassi was only repeating what I had told her,” Kristen tweeted on Monday night. “I love her & all of my girls for wanting the best for me. Carter is a really wonderful man and people go through things. Please just be kind because man, we’re all human.” There’s a deep irony in someone who’s repeatedly reveled in kicking others while they’re down exhorting her followers to “be kind,” but that’s Crazy Kristen for ya!

Jordyn Woods Books New Interview… and May Be in Major Trouble for It

Jordyn Woods is ready to break her silence. And the Kardashians may be ready to file a lawsuit againt her if this happens. Allow us to explain… The 21-year old former best friend of Kylie Jenner briefly went live on Instagram today to reveal that she’s filming Jada Pinkett Smith‘s Facebook Watch talk show, Red Table Talk.  This installment of the program will air on Friday and be Jordyn’s first interview since she allegedly got it on with Tristan Thompson just over a week ago. As you must know by now, Woods has been close with Kylie for years. This means, of course, that she’s also been tight with Khloe and all members the world’s most irritating family, which is why it was so shocking to learn that she spent last Sunday night at Thompson’s house. According to witnesses, she flirted with the basketball player all evening, was spotted making out with him and didn’t leave until 7 a.m. Yikes, right?!? Khloe prompted dumped Thompson, who was also caught cheating on his then-pregnant girlfriend in the fall of 2017. Woods has been blacklisted by the Kardashians since this incident; she’s been kicked out of Kylie’s home and all mentions/photos of her have been removed from all Kardashian-related websites and business material. At a launch party for her fake eyelash line a few days ago, Woods told those in attendance : “Through everything that’s been going on, you know it’s been real, and Eylure has been super real,” Woods told the crowd. This is all she’s said on the scandal to date. What will she reveal opposite Pinkett this Friday? We can’t say for certain. But it may land her in legal hot water. You see… insiders tell TMZ that Woods signed a non-disclosure agreement in exchange for appearing many times on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. This contract prohibits Jordyn from disclosing details about the lives of Kris, Kim, Khloe and the rest of the family. Therefore, you better believe Kardashian-Jenner lawyers will be watching Jordyn’s interview closely to see if she violates this agreement. “Jordyn has insisted that she did NOT hook up with Tristan,” a source tells Radar Online, adding: She has said she wasn’t drunk and that nothing happened with them. She thinks that Kris Jenner and the Kardashians are using her to get rid of Tristan and that this is a scam for ratings.” That sure would be fascinating to hear Woods say in a public forum, wouldn’t it? This same source, meanwhile, says the family is very concerned about the upcoming tell-all. “The family was blindsided by this and Kris is in panic mode,” writes Radar. “No one expected Jordyn to have the gall to stand up against them.” View Slideshow: Jordyn Woods: Who is Kylie Jenner’s BFF (and Khloe’s Home-Wrecker)?! Earlier today, Khloe addressed this painful scandal for the first time, writing on Twitter: Hi loves, wanted you to know that I appreciate you! I’ve been reading your kind words and they really are a blessing to me. I love you! Thank you. Thank you! I’ll be back when I’m in the mood to chat with you all. Until then remember to be kind to one another. Will Woods be kind to Khloe and company in a few days? We can’t wait to find out!

Demi Lovato: Relapse Fears Grow Amid Singer’s Rocky Relationship

Back in July of 2018,  Demi Lovato suffered an overdose that nearly claimed her life. In the months since, Lovato checked into rehab and committed herself to the hard work of sobriety. Demi left rehab back in November, and though her loved ones were initially optimistic, in recent weeks there have been concerns about the singer’s mental state. For starters, Demi is dating Henri Levy , a fashion designer whom she met during her time in treatment. People who are new to recovery are generally discouraged from entering new romantic relationships. And they’re discouraged from dating fellow recovering addicts. Levy recently celebrated six months of sobriety, but there are concerns that if either he or Demi fall off the wagon, they’ll take the other one with them. On top of that Demi recently quit Twitter after receiving some backlash for an ill-advised joke, and there are concerns that she’s grappling with depression and anxiety. According to a new report from Radar Online, Demi has been withdrawing from her usual social circles, and loved ones are concerned about the implications of that decision. “Like she did after her overdose, she has fired everyone around her very recently and got rid of new friends in a drastic measure to save herself and sobriety,” says one insider. “She has her own apartment in the San Fernando Valley now,” the source adds. “She is definitely out of her house. The apartment is her very own and she is alone.” Normally, a 26-year-old woman moving into her own apartment would not be cause for concern, but Demi’s inner circle fears she’s falling into a familiar pattern. “Demi is living alone which can be a bad thing because she can’t be alone and she becomes co-dependent,” says the informant. Friends fear that Lovato has created a situation in which Levy is her sole means of support: “When people heard she was dating Henri, they were shocked. No one knew,” says one supporter. It was such a surprise especially so quick after nearly dying and then trying to be sober when you aren’t supposed to date anyone,” the friend adds. “It just has shown everyone that she simply can’t be alone. It’s like she doesn’t know how.” Obviously, we have no way of knowing for sure if Levy is a negative force in Lovato’s life. But it’s not hard to see why fans might be concerned that his influence seems to be growing as Demi’s world continues to shrink.

Khloe Kardashian Sends Inspiring Message to Fans Amidst Cheating Drama

Khloe Kardashian has taken a break from being all cryptic and mysterious. In her latest Twitter post, the sad reality star had acknowledged the cheating scandal surrounding her life in the most direct fashion to date. Has she trashed Tristan Thompson for once again stepping out on her? Has she thrown Jordyn Woods under the bus for allegedly making out with Thompson, despite her long-lasting friendship with Khloe? And then driven that bus over Woods’ flailing body over and over and over again just for good measure? No. She’s actually responded to this romantic mess in far more mature fashion than we ever could. Wrote Khloe on Tuesday morning: Hi loves, wanted you to know that I appreciate you! I’ve been reading your kind words and they really are a blessing to me. I love you! Thank you. Thank you! I’ll be back when I’m in the mood to chat with you all. Until then remember to be kind to one another. Khloe, of course, is generally citing her recent break-up with this Tweet. We’re about two weeks removed from Thompson reportedly spending a night at his home with Woods, the 21-year old best friend of Kylie Jenner who has also modeled in the past for Khloe’s clothing line. The scandal has affected nearly every member of this famous family. Previously, Kardashian has been hesitate to acknowledge the awful incident in any sort of detail. She chose instead to mention snakes on Instagram or to talk about how the world of full of f-cked up people . We all knew she was making allusions to Tristan and Jordyn’s behavior, but the above Tweet is the first time she’s really cited it in particular. “Khloe is still hurt. She still can’t believe that Tristan hooked up with Jordyn,” a source has told People Magazine, stating the obvious and adding: “Everyone thinks she will be better off now. Tristan won’t be able to hurt her again. For him to hook up with Jordyn is the ultimate betrayal.” Barring some sort of Tristan and Kourtney slam session, this is likely true. According to various outlets, Thompson invited Woods back to his house after hanging out at a bar with her and a bunch of other pals. Tristan and Jordyn then spent many hours on the couch together, flirting and making out, witnesses have alleged. Neither side has really denied this rumor; Woods has simply said she was drunk . We’ve all been drunk, though, right? How many of us have then jumped our BFF’s boyfriend? Thompson, of course, was also caught cheating about a year ago on Khloe… back when she was pregnant with their daughter, True. This is why most people close to her are almost glad that he’s done so again, just so Kardashian can finally stop thinking he’s changed and to kick him to the curb once and for all. “@khloekardashian dont let anyone ever say this is your fault,” one of her liked Twitter notes reads, for example, adding: “He is a sick man and if its true, then she is a terrible woman, both terrible people that do not deserve your love. TRUE does and ur doing great showing her that love.” We concur. Especially when Woods hasn’t even stepped up and apologized or really explained her side in all this. “Her story keeps changing a bit, and it’s almost like she is digging herself deeper,” a second source told People on Monday, concluding: “It’s been a week now of nonsense explaining from her side. Everyone thinks she wanted to hook up with Tristan and she just didn’t think she was gonna get caught.” View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Shades Jordyn Woods, Puts on Brave Face for the Press

Rob Kardashian to Tristan Thompson: I Will Straight Up End You!

Rob Kardashian is an out of shape occasional sock designer with health problem who has weighed over 300 pounds in the past. Tristan Thompson is a profesional basketball player who averages nearly 30 minutes played per game for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Despite these differences in their stature and, we presume, their stamina, however, a new report alleges that Rob recently threatened to beat up Thompson.  Or at least try very hard to do so. According to Radar Online, Rob reacted to Tristan’s latest cheating scandal by making it very clear that Thompson was persona non grata as far as he was concerned… … and as far as everyone he knows well and loves is concerned. “Rob reached out to Tristan to let him know that he is no longer welcome around his family — ever,” Radar writes in its latest update to this sordid story. Rob, of course, has alway been very close to Khloe Kardashian. Even through the former’s struggles with his diet and his Diabetes, Khloe has remained by his side. Rob was also especially tight with Khloe’s ex-husband, Lamar Odom, who some are saying may try to reach back out to Khloe now that she’s single again. This is sadly the case because Thompson once again chose to swap spit (if not more) with a woman who isn’t his girlfriend. That woman, last Sunday night, was none other than Jordyn Woods, Kylie Jenner’s best friend and a good pal of Khloe’s as well. She allegedly spent the entire evening at Tristan’s home and was spotted sitting next to him on the sofa, while also touching his tongue with her tongue, French kiss style. How despicable, right? The cheating has had reverbations beyond Khloe and Tristan, as well, due to Woods’ relationship with all the Kardashians and Jenners. Kylie has reportedly kicked Woods out of her home and Rob is ready to thrown down over what transpired. “Rob is enraged by this because Khloe is everything to him,” Radar alo writes. “He straight up told Tristan that he was going to beat his ass!” As we mentioned above, the odds of Rob being able to accomplish this goal seem miniscule. Thompson boxes out seven-foot behemoths for a living, while Rob mostly lives off pizza boxes and sometimes looks like a behemoth. But still. It’s the thought that counts, right? Khloe has spent the past few days leaving very cryptic messages on Instagram, pretty clearly calling out both Tristan and Jordyn . Not that we blame her. Not one bit. Neither misbehaving party has denied his or her role in this affair, with Thompson deleting his Tweeted claim that this is “FAKE NEWS” shortly after writing it and Jordyn just claiming she was very drunk . What a lame defense, no? That may be a reason for something, but take some responsibility, J Dubs. It’s never an excuse.
