Once and for all, Kendra Wilkinson has answered all questions about her marriage to Hank Baskett. It is intact and it will remain intact. Until death does the couple part. “He loves me and we’re gonna be together for the rest of our lives,” Kendra told Access Hollywood on Friday. “We’ll prove it … until we’re 100 years old. We’re gonna be together forever.” Questions over the future of this relationship have hung over the relationship for months, ever since rumors surfaced of Baskett receiving manual pleasure from a transgender model named Ava London . Anyone who chooses to watch Kendra on Top online via the Internet, meanwhile, would think Kendra is on the verge of leaving her husband. However, the episodes of that WEtv reality series were filmed a long time ago and Wilkinson has either come around… or the pair has realized that they can make more money by remaining together. On last week’s episode, Wilkinson confronted her estranged husband and told him “We’re not married right now. I’m not your wife.” What about the newly-surfaced audio recordings of Baskett? In which he allegedly talks about paying money to London in exchange for secrecy? “It’s not what you think happened,” she says. “I can’t go on further past that. There is some investigation going on right now and that’s why I have to stay away from some things.” Also because the entire thing is made up. “We are on the road to recovery,” Wilkinson concluded. “We are on the road to friendship again. I believe that our marriage has been shaken up and I believe that this is something that is gonna renew us. “If you believe you’re perfect and you don’t believe in forgiveness, you’re not meant to be married.” Or at least you’re not meant to appear on reality TV shows that require interesting storylines. One or the other. 15 Celebrity Sex Tape Stars 1. Kendra Wilkinson Before Hugh Hefner and before Hank Baskett, Kendra Wilkinson got freaky on video with an old boyfriend. And she’s got a real talent for rodeo.
Dear Bossip , I live in Mississippi and I have been with my spouse for 6 years. We have 4 boys; the last two are twins. The boys love and adore their father, but I’m getting tired of his ways. I have been wanting to leave MS, but every time that I get the opportunity or I talk to him about it he comes up with all types of negative excuses for me not to leave. One of his favorite things to say is “How are you going to make it on your own?” When I met him I had my own place and one son from a previous relationship. He became physically abusive in Feb. 2014, a few days before Valentine’s Day. He has been verbally abusive since my oldest son was one. I have no one because my mother is dead and she lived a street life, so she knew nothing about what I went through; and my dad was very abusive as well, so most of my people think he’s a good guy. I come from a very dysfunctional family. His mother is a wonderful person, but she’s not able to help me without him being involved. In 2015, I’m planning to leave. I had a temporary restraining order on him but it has expired and we are trying to work things out for our kids. But, I’m ready to throw in the towel. He constantly makes negative comments to me and even talks about me if I gain a little bit of weight, and I’m a size 4! I’m just tired and I just want to know how does a person with kids start over somewhere else? I want to follow my dreams of being an actor, but I don’t know where to start. I do have a little bit of experience and I have my certified nursing assistant license to work. I’m also disabled and have been a victim of domestic violence since I was 13 years old. My father called me a b***h at 13, and the names never stopped. Every relationship that I have been in, which has been two, the men put their hands on me and called me out my name. I’m so tired that I thought about going from bisexual to being a lesbian. So, my questions are Mr. Dean – How do I start over and pursue my dream? My second question is if I do decide to have another man again, how do I find someone that won’t abuse me? – Ready To Go Dear Ms. Ready To Go , Ma’am, I’m sorry and I know it must feel awful being stuck in a relationship, and a place where you do not want to be. However, I feel the first thing you need to do is work on you, your self-worth, your self-esteem, and the many underlying issues that are a result to the mental, and emotional challenges and experiences you are presently experiencing. You need professional therapy. Your focus on another relationship is not healthy right now, and you need to get out of this situation before you begin thinking about another one. Unfortunately, what I’m reading is a woman who is desperate for love. Desperate for attention. Desperate for anyone to pay attention to her. And, if you don’t get help and work on these issues, then you will find yourself in this very same situation again. You are focused on the wrong thing! But, hold up! In your letter you dropped the line that you have thought about going from bisexual to being a lesbian. Uhm, sweetie, how can you just drop that sentence in your letter and you never explain this at any other part in your letter? Does your husband know about your sexuality, and has this hindered your relationship with him? If you’re bisexual, and you’re married, is that another reason as to why you are not happy in your marriage? And, everyone knows that I don’t condone violence, either emotional, mental, verbal, or physical, so, you should not remain in a situation in which you are a victim of domestic abuse. But, I’m concerned that you have allowed your restraining order to lapse, and figured you would work on your relationship for the sake of your kids. I truly feel that is the wrong thing to do. Never ever compromise yourself and your kids for the sake of a man, and what lies he is telling you. If you had a restraining, then I’m sure it was for a very good reason. Make sure to keep it active, and keep away from your abuser. If they’ve abused before, they will do it again. I’m sure you’re feeling like he can change, will change, and will do things differently because he has reassured you that he is a changed man. He’s convinced you that he needs to be a part of his children’s life, and that you and he need to work on your relationship. He’s making promises and telling you what you want to hear. Ma’am, he is lying and he has not changed! Please do yourself and your children a favor and reinstate your restraining order. He will resort to his familiar ways of abusing you very soon, and you will find yourself feeling even more trapped by him. Protect yourself. If you want to leave Mississippi, then you have to devise a plan and put the plan in action. First, since you have your nursing assistance license, then find employment and start saving money. If you want to leave, then save up enough money to last you three to six months. You want to have enough money to move, and get the basic necessities for you and your children. You will have to locate housing, and schools. So, this will require you doing research, and calling around in the city you wish to move to. Second, look for employment in other states that you are interested in going. I’m sure with a nursing assistance license you can find employment. Many hospitals, nursing homes, residential facilities, and other medical institutions are always looking for help. Go online and search and start filling out applications. Third, get into therapy. You need professional help. You have some deep rooted issues that are continuing and lingering throughout your life, especially with the verbal abuse you’ve experienced since you were 13 years old. Why do you keep attracting the same type of men in your life? Why do you keep entering into these abusive relationships? Therapy will help you get to the core of these issues. I also recommend finding suitable resources in your city that can assist you, such as a women’s shelter, or women’s abuse center. I am certain there is one, or a few in your city. Contact them and set up an appointment to meet with them. They can provide you with resources, information, and counseling to help you transition from your situation, and into a more positive and nurturing environment. You need support systems, especially positive and loving ones. Have you thought about your local church, if you belong to one, or some spiritual center where you can build support systems? You need positive reinforcements that can help you and be a bridge of resources and support. You have a lot going on, and you need to become focused, and work on one thing at a time. You’re in an abusive relationship. You have been abused previously. You want to pursue acting. You have a nursing assistance license, but are you working in your field. You want to leave Mississippi. You have four small children. You don’t have any support networks. You are bisexual, and considering becoming lesbian. You notice there is no cohesion in your life. You are all over the place. And, this is what your letter looks like. Therefore, get into therapy. Get into counseling. Find a women’s group, shelter, or center and start with the abuse. Once you work on this, all the other things will become clearer to you. Your relationship is toxic, and you can’t stay in it. He is unhealthy for you and to you. Love yourself. Love your children. Get out of this relationship, and start healing. – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think? Share your opinions and thoughts below!

Can you blame her ? Phaedra Parks Files For Divorce From Apollo Nida Phaedra Parks is pulling the plug on her marriage to Apollo Nida. Via EOnline reports: The Real Housewives of Atlanta star “has retained an attorney with the intent of amicably ending her marriage,” her rep, Steve Honig, exclusively confirms to E! News in a statement. Last month, Nida checked himself in to prison to begin an eight-year sentence which was issued in July following his guilty plea to bank fraud back in May. This is the second long-term prison stay for Nida, who was incarcerated for six years between 2003 and 2009 for car theft charges. The former couple has two children under the ages of four, sons Dylan and Ayden. The same day that Nida entered prison, Honig issued a statement on Phaedra’s behalf to E! News. Parks “is now putting all of her energy into ensuring the well-being of her two children and making decisions that are in their best interests,” he said. “This situation has put a tremendous strain on Phaedra and her family and she is working hard to bring back a sense of normalcy to everyone’s lives.” Prior to the start of Apollo’s sentence, a source told E! News that he had “been out partying every single night” adding that Nida has “made things very uncomfortable” for the Bravo star. “When he does speak to Phaedra, it’s always about money,” the source said. “He owes a huge debt in restitution and he wants to know if she’s going to help him with it. ‘Are you going to give me money?’ is always his question. He still wants her financial support.” Back in July, an insider exclusively revealed to E! News that the pair’s marriage was in serious jeopardy. “Phaedra and Apollo’s marriage is on very shaky ground right now,” a source told E! News. “Phaedra is trying to keep everything contained and protect her kids.” Meanwhile, following Apollo’s eight-year sentencing, his attorney Thomas D. Bever told E! News, “On behalf of my client Apollo, right now he feels remorse. He thought the judge was fair, and accepts his sentence, although he was hoping it would be less. Apollo is elated that this proceeding is past him and is no longer handing over his head. It meant everything to him that his mother and brother spoke on his behalf. He’s OK, and will get through this.” Phaedra recently posted a picture of a Biblr scripture days before filing for divorce from dirty dog Apollo: The reality star has also been spotted on the scene getting close to Kenny Lattimore at a recent book signing: It was only a matter of time before Phaedra pulled the plug on her shady marriage. Maybe Kenya will be able to put some money on Apollo’s books while he’s locked up. Hit the flip for more from newly freed Phaedra next…

Taylor Swift, the cover girl for the new issue of InStyle, has come into her own this year, no longer letting her hot self be defined by the famous dudes she dates. She’s all about the music lately, having a heck of a good time and reaching new heights, personally and professionally, as she nears the quarter-century mark. As a result, she says she isn’t even sure she wants kids. Like at all. “I don’t know if I’ll have kids,” she confesses, for a number of reasons, most notably not being in the right mindset at this point in her 24-year-old existence. She also has fears of raising them in the spotlight, however. How could she convince them, she muses, “that they have a normal life when, inevitably, there will be strange men pointing giant cameras at them from the time they are babies.” “It’s impossible not to picture certain scenarios.” Marriage feels like it’s a long way off, as well. “I’m too young to get married,” she says. “Not age-wise,” Swift clarifies, “but I know myself, so why try to meet someone right now when I know that I’m too young to do something serious?” 11 Dudes Who Have Dated Taylor Swift 1. Jake Gyllenhaal Jake Gyllenhaal allegedly took Taylor Swift’s v-card, then dumped her via text. TEXT. Surprisingly mature, given the sheer number of celebrities who have dated Taylor Swift and how a good number of them went from zero to 60, romance-wise. No longer, she says she’s loving being single. “Being on my own, prioritizing my girlfriends, my family and my music above everything else and trying things I never thought I’d try,” Swift reflects. With her upcoming album, 1989, dropping October 27, and being in a better place than ever before, “it’s really been a liberating and freeing time.” Being single doesn’t mean lonely in her case. Right now, the singer says her friends, including Karlie Kloss , Lena Dunham, Lorde and Jaime King, are “the most important thing to me right now.” That and her two cats … meow.

Stronger than steroids… Giants Player’s Record Season Attributed To Honeymoon Phase Of Marriage We’ve always heard that it’s best to abstain from nekkid time with significant others prior to sporting events to maximize performance…but for Giants cornerback Prince Amukamara the exact opposite seems to be true. Since the devout Catholic and former virgin got married, teammates say his game has been better than ever. Via DailyMail : New York Giants’ cornerback Prince Amukamara is enjoying his best season yet – and defensive back Antrel Rolle thinks he knows why. Rolle told NJ.com that it’s no coincidence that Amukamara, a devout Catholic who previously said he would abstain from sex until marriage, is playing so well just months after getting hitched. ‘He’s married, so he’s (enjoying some things that he wasn’t experiencing before he’s married),’ he said. ‘For a man, that could definitely help him out… He walks around with a little more swagger, which is something that we need, which is something that we love.’ Whatever the cause, it’s paying off. In four games, Amukamara, who was picked in the first round of the 2011 draft, has already set a career high with two interceptions, as well as 25 tackles. ‘When he goes out there playing, you definitely see him being more aggressive, capitalizing on his opportunities and he’s accepting challenges. He’s winning those challenges,’ Rolle said. His coaches said that the 25-year-old has shown steady improvement in his four-year career. ‘Prince is a young man who’s improved year in and year out,’ coach Tom Coughlin said last week. ‘And he’s improved this past year to this point.’ He would not say outright that having sex was responsible for his latest boost. ‘He’s just developing more as a man and accepting challenges and being the dominant player that we need him to be that we know he’s capable of,’ Coughlin said. Amukamara, who hails from Nigeria, has always been open about waiting for marriage before having sex. He also does not drink alcohol. In an interview with Muscle & Fitness last year, he revealed that his clean lifestyle led some of his teammates to call him ‘the black Tim Tebow’ after his fellow Christian NFL player. Cute story from a happy couple! Good to see a little positivity in sports for a change after the last few weeks…
