Kailyn Lowry: I Haven’t Seen My Dad Since 2009 … And I’m Glad!

Whether you love her or hate her, there’s no denying that Kailyn Lowry had one hell of a rough upbringing. Obviously, the most publicized aspect of Lowry’s adolescence was her teen pregnancy, which led her to seek solace and shelter with Jo Rivera’s family after being abandoned by her mother. In the years since, Lowry has described her mother as an alcoholic and stated that the two have them seldom have any contact. She’s been less vocal on the subject of her father, and it turns out there’s good reason for that. As she revealed in a recent tweet, Kail hasn’t seen her father since Thanksgiving of 2009. “The week of Thanksgiving 2009 was when I met my dad for the first time,” Kail tweeted yesterday. “And even though we haven’t met again. That was an important time in my life.” If you’ve been with the Teen Mom/16 and Pregnant franchise from the very beginning, then Kail’s revelation may not come as much of a surprise. As In Touch Weekly points out , Kailyn’s reunion with the man who impregnated her mother was captured by an MTV camera crew. “I met my sperm donor for the first and last time on 16 and Pregnant . I was 17-years-old and I never looked back. He doesn’t reach out and neither do I,” she stated in an interview earlier this year. “It gets lonely around holidays and I’m sad for my kids during those times…but I wouldn’t be where I am today if things were different.” So when Kail says the meeting with her father constituted an “important time” in her life, we assume she means that it solidified what she had long suspected: She would be forced to face the challenges of adulthood without any support from her parents. Lowry affirmed this sad reality in her most recent memoir:  “I didn’t ever have an example of a mother or father when I was growing up,” she wrote in A Letter of Love . “Since I didn’t have a point of reference on how to love, I desperately want my boys to understand that I have tried to love them in the best way that I can.” These days, not only is Kail a loving and devoted mother, she’s also a wildly successful businesswoman who has launched and maintained a one-woman media empire worth millions. We think it’s safe to say she’s one apple who fell very far from the tree. View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry Announces “Pothead” Haircare Line, Gets Shamed By Ignorant Trolls

Paris Jackson: Spiraling Toward Another Mental Breakdown?

Paris Jackson is a model, a free spirit, and a person who’s unafraid to clap back at her own family from time to time. But recent sightings and reports have fans and family concerned about her well-being. Is Paris headed for another emotional breakdown? RadarOnline reports that family and fans alike are worried about Paris Jackson. The model and actress was spotted walking through LAX on November 12. Her demeanor was described as “zombie-walking” and her shirt and general appearance were described as “slopping.” Not usually what you’d expect from a model who’s also the daughter of the late King of Pop. Allegedly, this has added fuel to the fire of concerns that Paris is heading towards another emotional or mental breakdown. According to RadarOnline ‘s report, those who love her are seriously worried. “Paris has been out of control,” the insider claims. Well, she’s an adult, so it’s not like anyone should be controlling what she does. The concern is that Paris herself is not fully in charge of what she’s doing. “But,” the source continues. “There’s nothing the family can do!” It’s natural to be worried about your loved ones — but is their alleged fear justified? Let’s start with the eyewitness description of how she looked at the airport. Folks, she was at the airport, not a runway, not a funeral. Some people get all dolled up and formally dressed every day of their lives. The rest of us only put on pants if we have to leave the house. Paris probably dressed in comfy clothes for flying on an airplane and also for sleeping on said airplane. Just a guess. Plenty of people look less than their best after a flight. Most of us just don’t have busybodies reporting on our demeanor afterwards. And then there’s Paris’ behavior over the past year. Early this year, Paris nearly plummeted to her death while dancing on a rooftop. Those of us with a sensible fear of heights and zero inclination to risk our lives ever were horrified to watch her nearly lose her balance. She was not alone, however, and she didn’t fall–she just stumbled. But temporarily wobblings near the edge of a roof is not the same thing as climbing up to a great height and contemplating jumping. It was scary, but probably not a real red flag. Fans were happy to spot her  locking lips with Cara Delevingne , but saddened when their relationship seemed to fizzle out over the summer. When Cara was seen with  Pretty Little Liars  star Ashley Benson, some worried about how Paris would feel. But Paris made it very clear on social media that she and Cara were never exclusive, anyway. Besides, much more recently, it’s been all about Paris and Gabriel Glenn . We don’t think that her non-exclusive relationship with Cara coming to a close drove her mental health over the edge. Also, though Paris mourned her grandfather, Joe Jackson , she has loving family and supportive friends. We don’t think that his passing gave her a breakdown. It just made her sad. Paris is a hippie. She likes pot. Her hair isn’t always picture-perfect. She has a very chill approach to most things in life. That’s just part of who she is, as a person. It’s understandable that fans, especially those who are younger, might be concerned about her when they hear rumors. And it’s expected that some of her family might wish that she conducted herself differently. Paris is her own person and a free spirit, and ultimately, she’s going to live her life on her terms — instead of worrying only about optics. Good for her.

Dancing with the Stars Recap: Who Won Season 27?

Did Dancing with the Stars deliver another shocking twist to close out Season 27?  In a season that has been filled with controversy, with fans ruling it a popularity contest as opposed to a dancing competition, there have already been some headscratchers.  From the surprise elimination of Tinashe early into the season to last week’s stunning elimination of Juan Pablo Di Pace on the same night he landed two perfect scores, we think it’s fair to say fans are less than impressed with the series.  Hey, that’s not to say we still think Milo Manheim, Alexis Ren, Bobby Bones, and Evanna Lynch could even be ruled as celebrities.  To the casual viewer, this season probably feels like a civilian edition, and we can’t blame them. But how did those final routines pan out and did they even matter when it came to the final vote?  Let’s break them down one last time! Alexis Ren and Alan Bersten — Argentine Tango 27/30; Freestyle: 30/30 It was clear from the first week of the competition that there was a lot going for both Alexis and Alan. They had the chemistry sorted and later embarked on a relationship.  Their Argentine Tango was not without flaws, and it was a misstep for this otherwise solid pair. Thankfully, they pulled it back with a rock-solid freestyle that showed why viewers are voting for them: They’re both flexible as hell! Bobby Bones and  Sharna Burgess —  Cha-Cha: 24/30; Freestyle: 30/30 Bobby has come across as a mere novelty act. The radio personality has charisma for days, but he’s been lacking as far as dancing ability goes.  It’s surprising he lasted this long in the competition. His Cha-Cha with Sharna was much of the same, but the Freestyle definitely kicked things up a few gears.  Where has that  level of dancing been all season long? It did seem like it was too little, too late, but we still had the results to go.  Milo Manheim and Witney Carson — Charleston: 30/30; F reestyle : 30/30 Next to Juan Pablo, Milo seemed like the next best thing. He and Witney have been pulling in high scores all season long, and the pair secured another two perfect scores.  They perform well together and are confident. Whoever put them together at the start of the season knew they would make for a powerful duo.  Evanna Lynch and Keo Motsepe — Halloween Night tango: 30/30; Freestyle: 30/30 Evanna started the season off in the middle of the pack, but she quickly adapted, and got her confidence back as the season progressed.  Pulling off two perfect scores in one night is difficult, but it shows just how far she’s come since that first week.  After all of those performances, there was still room for Grocery Store Joe to show up with some of his Bachelorette alumni to prove why he should have been kicked out in the first week.  Seriously though, who the heck was voting for that dude? In the end, Bobby Bones and Sharna Burgess secured the Mirrorball Trophy, and yes, it’s got to be one of the biggest twists to rock the series.  It’s high time the dancing had a higher weighting on the results because the viewer vote is starting to ruin the show.  Will there be changes implemented? Time till tell.  In the meantime, congratulations Bobby and Sharna! What are your thoughts on the finale? Hit the comments below! View Slideshow: Dancing with the Stars: The Odds are Out! Who Will Win?

Lauren Comeau: My Baby is Happy, Healthy and HERE!

Lauren Comeau has spoken out for the first time since before a mother…  … for, well, the first time. As previously reported, Comeau gave birth to a child alongside Javi Marroquin just after 3 p.m. on Thursday, welcoming a precious boy about two weeks prior to her due date. The newborn does not have a name, but it’s very clear he does have two very loving parents. “It’s been amazing,” Marroquin told Radar Online about becoming a father once again. Radar included a snapshot of the parents and their child , as Javi continued: “I even shed some tears. For those that don’t know, I’m not an emotional person anymore at all and just seeing my son come out really had me in my feelings.” Comeau was due on December 1. But she explained to Radar that she had to be induced several days beforehand, not expounding on the reason why. “It’s been incredible,” she told the site, though, adding: “Being induced definitely threw us for a spin. I was nervous about having to start from zero at the hospital, but we had a really great experience.” We assume she means having to start at zero centimeters dilation upon the induction. You don’t want to hear about technical medical details, we know. You want to know the name of Javi and Lauren’s baby, right? The thing is… so do they! Marroquin told Radar very shortly after the baby was born that he and his girlfriend have not yet picked one out. “His first overnight was amazing,” Lauren added in her post-birth interview. “We all three slept in between nurse visits. He’s latching great. He’s a happy, healthy boy!” Marroquin, as you likely know, appeared on multiple episodes of Teen Mom 2 back when he was married to Kailyn Lowry . They divorced after four years of marriage, but have kept in close touch because they share a five-year old son named Lincoln. In response to Javi becoming a dad again, Lowry wrote “congrats” on Twitter and linked to a story about the exciting development. Lincoln actually turns five years old today and he’s already met his baby half-sibling. “Firstborn is turning 5, getting him balloons now,” Marroquin said in an Instagram video on Friday. “I’m going to go back to the hospital to hang with my new guy and Lauren and then I’m going to come back before Lincoln wakes up to wish him a happy birthday.” Click below for more details on the birth and join us in sending a hearty CONGRATULATIONS to Javi and Lauren… View Slideshow: Javi Marroquin and Lauren Comeau Welcome First Child!

Jenni Farley: Roger Mathews Lies! We’re Still Getting Divorced!

Ever since the world learned that Jenni Farley and Roger Mathews are getting divorced , Jersey Shore fans have behaved as though their own parents are separating. Jenni and Roger are the show’s most beloved couple, and the idea of them calling it quits has simply been too much for many Shore viewers to bear. Making the situation even sadder is the fact that the decision to split was not mutual — far from it, in fact. Roger has been begging Farley to take him back , but for a long time, it seemed as though his pleas were falling on deaf ears. Earlier this week, however, fans were encouraged by a tiny glimmer of hope. The couple posed together for photos at a media event, which naturally led to rumors of that Jenni and Roger were getting back together . Unfortunately, a source close to the couple says that’s just wishful thinking on the part of fans. Speaking with Radar Online, the insider confirmed that Farley and Mathews are “not getting back together.”  The source notes that this week’s event was a family-friendly party sponsored by Dreamworks, and Roger and Jenni attended together for the sake of their two children. “She will always put her children first and this year is no exception,” the informant says. “She wants her kids to have as normal of a life as possible.” Of course, things are far from normal right now, as Roger has been pulling out all the stops to win her back. He even went so far as to publicly celebrate his anniversary with Jenni despite their estrangement. The source confirms that there was no cheating or infidelity involved in the decision to separate. In fact, there was no precipitous event of any kind — Jenni simply decided she doesn’t want to be married anymore. “Roger has been trying everything he can to change her mind, but her mind is made up,” the insider continued. “She’s done.” As Shore fans know, JWoww is not the type to be swayed by heartfelt displays of emotion. But you can bet Roger won’t be giving up in his efforts to win his wife back. We wish these two all the best. Of course, in this case, the best thing might be for the two of them to go their separate ways. View Slideshow: Roger Mathews Creeps on Sammi Sweetheart’s Instagram, Claims Jenni Farley Hates Him

Dog the Bounty Hunter Rescues Tiger Woods’ Mistress From Drug Den, Proves 2018 is the Weirdest

Folks, we’re gonna step into the Wayback Machine for a moment and transport you directly to 2009. A fresh-faced Barack Obama had just moved into the White House; the global economy was still reeling from the Great Recession; and the Tiger Woods cheating scandal dominated tabloid headlines. For our younger readers who may not remember the revelation that Woods’ obsession with holes extended beyond the golf course, allow us to summarize it thusly: Tiger Woods slept with all the women. Actually, to be fair, it’s not totally clear if he was still sleeping with his wife with any regularity, but in 2009, he was definitely banging everyone who wasn’t his wife. Another figure from the bygone oughts who factors into today’s sordid tale is Duane Chapman, otherwise known as Dog the Bounty Hunter. There was a time when networks were allowed to produce reality shows that focused on things other than real estate and reproduction. During this time, Dog reigned supreme, combining the most bonkers elements of Cops and Intervention to form a weird hybrid product in which he would tackle people and then lecture them about their life choices. How do the tales of these two fallen heroes intersect? Well to explain that, we need to introduce you to Jamie Jungers. Jungers was one of Woods’ mistresses , and it seems her life hit the skids in a major way in the years since she parted ways with the golfer. Fortunately, Dog emerged from retirement to come to Jamie’s rescue. In a wild interview with Radar Online, Chapman tells the tale of saving Jungers’ life by rescuing her from a drug house where she was exchanging sexual favors for heroin: “She was 88 pounds when we got her and the handcuffs wouldn’t even go on her wrists because they were so skinny. She was going to die in the next few weeks,” Dog tells Radar. “These guys were holding her in a house where she was giving sexual favors for drugs,” he adds. “She told me she was trading drugs for sex with guys at four or five houses.” Hilariously, Chapman thinks we need to know the professions of Jamie’s johns: “One was the top investigator for one of the biggest insurance companies in the U.S. Another guy was in construction,” he tells the website. Champman goes on to say that Jungers fully blames Woods for the current state of her life: “She said she blames Tiger,” he reveals. “She said all these dirty motherf–kers wanted to f–k me just because I had f–ked Tiger Woods, and before I knew it all these people were coming into my life because of drugs and I’m a f–cking junkie now and I hate it.” Well, Tiger might be partially responsible, but it seems like there’s a lot of blame to go around in this case. This has been the first in what we hope will be many installments of Dog vs. Tiger . View Slideshow: Tiger Woods Mistresses: Playing All the Holes!

The Royal Family Has Never Looked This Happy Before

Stodgy? Stoic? Serious? More like… playful! Fun-loving! And totally adorable! In a pair of candid new photos, the most prominent members of Great Britain’s Royal Family aim to put to rest all rumors of them as very serious and even unusually cold and distant. See what we mean right here: This picture and the one we’ve also shared down below were snapped in the gardens of Clarence House by photographer Chris Jackson. They were released in honor of Prince Charles‘ 70th birthday on Wednesday and they include pretty much everyone: Charles, Duchess Camilla and grandkids Prince George and Princess Charlotte are on a wooden bench, comfortable and cozy. Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan Markle are standing behind them sharing a big hearty laugh… while Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton – who is cradling Prince Louis – are grinning at their side. This really could be any family on any important occasion, couldn’t it? We’ve never seen this well-known group looking so candid and relaxed before. Wrote Jackson as a message along with the images: “I’ve travelled all over the world photographing the Prince of Wales for the last 15 years from Durbars in Nigeria to the Galapagos Islands, Pakistan, Japan and many more as well as covering numerous domestic Royal Engagements so I was delighted to have been asked to take these official portraits of The Prince surrounded by his family to celebrate the important milestone of his 70th Birthday. “It was particularly special to capture such an informal and relaxed family portrait over a fun afternoon in the gardens of Clarence House.” Amidst rumors that Markle is a diva and there’s division within the Royal Ranks, these photographs could not have come out at a better time. Charles turning 70 years old has placed the once-controversial prince (the dude cheated on Princess Diana!) squarely in the spotlight for the first time in years. There’s a new documentary coming out about him and a recent screen grab from the program gave us a rare glimpse at the youngest member of his family. Hello there, Prince Louis! The Duke of Wales tries to spend as much time as he can with his grandchildren, with his wife saying in the aforementioned documentary of Charles and the young ones around him: “He will get down on his knees and crawl about with them for hours, you know making funny noises and laughing and my grandchildren adore him, absolutely adore him. “He reads Harry Potter and he can do all the different voices and I think children really appreciate that.” William has also said his father is “brilliant” with George, and you can kind of see how close the two are in the first two photos featured here. Of late, of course, all attention has turned from Kate and William’s kids to the growing tiny person inside of Markle. She is pregnant, in case you haven’t had an Internet connection or access to a television in many weeks. Although she and Prince Harry have not yet revealed Markle’s due date , it is widely believed that she’s expected to give birth in early May. She may even welcome her son or daughter on May 2, which is Princess Charlotte’s birthday, which would just be so darn cute all around.  We’ll keep fans posted. In the meantime, how about these glorious Royal Photos, huh? Never thought we’d see the day where these famous and important folks looked so… normal, you know?

Bristol Palin to Sister Willow: I Hate Your Ass & Always Have!!

Given that  Bristol Palin thinks that teen moms should be cut off by their families as punishment, plenty of people wouldn’t want to spend time with her. But it’s a bit of a surprise to hear that her own sister can’t stand her. And apparently, when it comes to Bristol and Willow, the feeling of animosity is mutual. RadarOnline reports that Willow Palin has basically given up hope that she’ll ever have a real relationship with big sister Bristol Palin. “Willow is so beaten down by her siblings,” an insider close to the 24-year-old Palin daughter admits. The source goes on to say that Willow feels that “especially Bristol” has kept her down. Willow, per the insider, has reached the point “that she doesn’t even expect anything anymore” in terms of a sibling relationship with Bristol. It sounds like this isn’t a new development by any stretch of the imagination. This dysfunctional dynamic between the sisters has been going on for years. “Bristol and Willow have a really weird past,” the source continues. The insider even goes as far as to say that: “Bristol never really cared for Willow.” That’s a major claim about a pair of siblings, but the report contains a somewhat specific example of how that alleged disinterest manifested. “She’d take Willow to parties with her,” the source says. “And then,” the insider continues. “Bristol would completely not take care of her or keep an eye on her.” That’s not just lazy — that can be dangerous. Their quiet conflict became more pronounced earlier this year. Willow got married to Ricky Bailey. Bristol was invited — in fact, she was supposed to be a bridesmaid. Instead, Bristol ditched the wedding , blowing off the family event entirely. Her issue was that Willow had invited Track Palin, their “troubled” brother, to the ceremony. Ultimately, Track couldn’t make it, either, because he got himself arrested for domestic battery … again. Willow and Bristol’s contentious relationship has even become apparent on Teen Mom OG . It has been weeks since Willow has appeared on the show. In the mean time, viewers have seen Bristol’s divorce from Dakota Meyer. They’ve seen her 17-year-old sister, Piper Palin. Teen Mom fans have seen the nightmare goblin of the frozen north herself, Sarah Palin. Willow’s absence hasn’t gone unnoticed, and it gives off the appearance that the sisters can’t even stand to appear on camera together. It sounds like Bristol was not the best older sister to Willow. That isn’t exactly a surprise — Bristol, from her blogging and her public statements, has made it clear that she’s not the best person , period. But, as much as we hate to say it, we might be Team Bristol in this feud. (Seriously, we never expected to write that in any context) First of all, it looks like Willow happily shares all of Bristol’s worst political views, so nobody has a leg up on the other in terms of basic decency. And then there’s their disagreement over Track. Track Palin has a history of domestic violence arrests , and there’s nothing funny about that. Willow might feel some misplaced sense of loyalty to her brother simply because they happen to share some genes. Bristol boycotted her sister’s wedding because Willow had invited a known domestic abuser. That’s a courageous move on Bristol’s part, and you have no idea how much it pains me to write those words. Maybe Willow should reserve her loyalty for those who deserve it. And maybe Bristol — and Teen Mom OG — are better off without Willow just as they’re better off without Track.

Blac Chyna to Rob Kardashian: Pay Your Child Support, Broke-Ass!

After ten years on top, the Kardashians are as popular — and as profitable — as ever. Kylie is nearly a billionaire ; Kendall is one of the world's most famous models, and the rest of the sisters remain constant subjects of fascination in tabloids and on social media. Of course, that leaves Rob … who's not having such an easy time these days. In fact, Rob says he can't afford to pay child support to his baby mama, Blac Chyna  As you may have guessed, Chyna's not interested in hearing his excuses. Take a look: 1. Better Days Blac and Rob’s relationship was very brief and very volatile. But because it resulted in the birth of daughter Dream Kardashian, these two are bonded for life. 2. Bitter Breakup Rob and Blac parted ways in ugly fashion. There were allegations of assault and infidelity, and Rob even posted intimate photos as “revenge porn.” 3. Living the Dream But something beautiful came out of all that ugliness. Rob became a dad, and Blac became a mother of two when little Dream entered the world in 2016. 4. The Settlement It was initially agreed that Rob would pay Dream $20,000 per month for child support — chump change in the Kardashians’ world. 5. Rob Claps Back Of course, we suppose it was only a matter of time before Rob’s lawyers petitioned to “modify” that agreement. 6. Broke Rob According to court documents filed this week, Rob’s lawyers claim the former reality star “can no longer afford” his child support payments. View Slideshow

Bristol Palin: Teens Moms Should Be Punished For Getting Pregnant!

For a woman who stars on a show called Teen Mom OG , Bristol Palin certainly isn't very sympathetic to the plight of unwed young mothers. Or at least that's the impression we get from her latest comments on the subject. As The Ashley's Reality Roundup points out , Bristol went on an Instagram rant this week, and she made what many feel are deeply insensitive comments about teen pregnancy. Some fans are even citing the remarks as proof that Bristol never should have been cast on the show in the first place. Take a look: 1. Bristol Under Fire Many Teen Mom OG fans were not thrilled when Bristol Palin was cast on the show, and they’re citing her latest comments as further evidence that she just doesn’t belong. 2. Blast From the Past Unlike Cheyenne Floyd, who also joined the cast this season, Bristol was an honest-to-goodness teen mom at one point. 3. The Palins She welcomed her first child in 2008 … the same year that her mother gained national fame as John McCain’s running mate. 4. Different Strokes Needless to say, Bristol’s upbringing was quite different from those of the other Teen Moms, most of whom grew up in relative poverty. 5. Check Your Privilege But despite the fact that her mother was once one of the most famous women in the country, Bristol says she didn’t grow up with a silver spoon in her mouth. 6. Cut off “People have this assumption that I haven’t struggled with finances but my parents cut me off lonnng long ago, like when I got knocked up 10+ years ago (which good parents should do),” Bristol wrote on Instagram this week.
