Danielle Staub: My Marriage Was Ruined by Booze!

Though The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Danielle Staub was granted a restraining order against her ex , that relationship continues to haunt her. In this clip, she is speaking out about the difficult split. As she tells Wendy Williams, her husband's alcohol use played a major role in their breakup. Danielle, who has been engaged twenty entire times, is opening up about the hard lessons that this marriage has taught her. “It’s funny how I saw certain things happening,” Staub admits about her husband, Marty Caffrey. She says that she saw these red flags when they were just dating, but unfortunately ignored them. “But you just believe, especially with the perception around us, getting engaged would make it better,” she explains. She says that social messages gave her the impression that “getting married would make it better.” “It doesn’t get better, ladies,” she cautions Wendy Williams' audience. “If it’s falling apart,” Staub admits. “It’s broken.” She is absolutely right. If anything, the honeymoon phase of a relationship should have the least problems. Those struggles aren't likely to evaporate just because you put a ring on it. As she explains, Caffrey's drinking played a huge role in their split. “He does hit cocktail hour a little bit heavily,” she says. “And it does change things.” “I think all of us it changes,” Staub acknowledges. People don't change into a new person when they drink, but other sides of them come out when alcohol is involved. Not all of those sides are pleasant. “I just don’t think it changes him for the better,” Staub says. “Or his ability to maneuver through what’s going on.” Staub doesn't place all of the blame for their split at his feet, however. She is the first to admit that she is “not the easiest person to live with.” Caffrey accused Staub of emotional and verbal abuse during their marriage. “I’m to blame for it as well,” Staub explains. “But,” she says. “I feel like I’m always the person who wants to fix people and it’s not fixable.” If a person has a substance abuse problem, they're the only ones who can fix it. Wendy then asks her if she thinks that she and Caffrey might ever get back together. “I don’t have a crystal ball,” Staub says cautiously. “But,” Staub continues. “You can’t go into the public and be tweeting and Instagraming about your wife or your spouse.” “You just don’t do that,” she says simply. When your relationship troubles are spilling over onto social media, that is a huge warning sign that things may end soon. It is usually a sign that things should end soon. Staub's role on the Real Housewives franchise was apparently a huge source of appeal for Caffrey. Wendy asks: “So he really liked being a ‘House husband?'” “I think that that was what I’m most disappointed about,” Staub admits. Staub was saddened by “His want for this attention.” Well, half of all marriages end in divorce. We're just sorry that some life lessons are so painful to learn. Perhaps others can learn from Danielle Staub's experience.

Duggar Clan to Amy: Congrats! We’re Letting You Back In the Family!

If you’re a diehard Duggar fan, you may have noticed the absence of “rebellious” cousin Amy in recent months. That’s no accident, as sources say Amy was essentially kicked out of the family  back in June. Her famous cousins were banned from visiting her, and certain family members, like Jinger Duggar, even went so far as to unfollow Amy on Instagram . “Amy is not allowed to talk about the Duggars anymore,” one insider told Radar online at the time. “Amy went through her Instagram and had to delete all the pictures she had with her cousins.” Explanations as to why Amy was exiled vary, but most are in agreement that the ultra-conservative Jim Bob simply didn’t approve of Amy’s slightly more liberal lifestyle. But it seems that at some point in the past three weeks, Amy was somehow able to get back in Jim Bob’s good graces. First, Jinger re-followed her cousin on Instagram, and now, the Duggars have chosen to acknowledge Amy’s birthday on Facebook. Yes, the above photo was posted on the Duggars’ official Facebook page earlier this week, and while it may seem like a minor development, it’s actually a subtle way of sharing some very big news. Until recently, Amy was, by her own admission, “out of the family.” She was persona non grata at all Duggar gatherings, and as Jim Bob and company aren’t exactly big on forgiveness, it was widely assumed that it would stay that way. But now, not only Amy been forgiven, it also looks as though she’s being embraced by her family. The youngest Duggar daughters recently formed a singing group  — called, of course, The Duggar Girls — and it seems Amy has been recruited to assist with their dreams of stardom. So maybe Michelle reluctantly asked for Amy’s assistance since she’s the only person the Duggars know who actually lives in the 21st century? We suppose that’s possible — but Michelle doesn’t do anything without Jim Bob’s approval. So even though he’s not in this pic, you can bet JB signed off on the decision. And if there’s ever a man who’s not keen on changing his mind, it’s Jim Bob — so you can bet Amy worked very hard to get back on his good side.

Paola Mayfield Shows Off HUGE Baby Bump!

90 Day Fiance stars Russ and Paola Mayfield are expecting their first child . Fans are thrilled for them. Pao isn’t hiding her growing baby bump — she’s been putting it on display. Now, she’s sharing a major update, and Russ is giving her a little help. Take a look: Back in August, Paola flaunted her baby bump in a barely-there bikini in an instagram video. Pao isn’t just a reality star — she is a fitness model by trade. It really shows. But though her abs may be incredible, her baby bump continues to grow and take an effect on her body. Take a look at this update that she shared on Monday, October 1. For October, her baby bump is now pumpkin-sized. “Our protector,” Paola captioned this photo. “We love you.” Obviously, Paola still looks great. We’ll get to see her profile in a moment, but can we talk about Russ’ presence in the photo . He’s being careful to not overshadow Paola — which is good. Fans are there to see her and her baby bump, specifically. Considering that it wasn’t that long ago that fans perceived that Russ wanted Paola to cover up on Instagram, this looks like relationship progress. “My little angel is growing healthy and stronger,” Paola captioned this pic. “I can’t wait to meet you.” From this angle, you can really see that bump’s growth, folks! Some fitness models make fans and followers concerned with how little their bodies seem to outwardly change during pregnancy. Paola is still very clearly fit, but her baby bump isn’t hiding, either. In this baby bump update (or “bumpdate,” as absolutely no one is calling it), Pao’s bump is visibly larger. It also looks like her legs are a little wider — which is by no means an insult, and is very healthy for both her and the baby. Paola and Russ have been married since 2013. Previously, the two of them suffered a miscarriage. The tragedy was compounded when it led to some marital friction. Pao felt that Russ was not there for her, emotionally, while Russ accused her of shutting him out. That added to their preexisting issues — mostly conflict over Russ’ discomfort with Paola’s modeling work. Said dispute has been an ongoing storyline on 90 Day Fiance . Fortunately, they worked through the fallout from the miscarriage and seem to be in a much better place in every way. Paola has received some shaming, unfortunately, since her pregnancy. Some people — even those who might claim to be her “fans” — think that pregnant folks should cover up their baby bumps. Others hope that she quits modeling altogether now that she’s becoming a mother. Yes, there are still people in this world who have a real problem with working moms. But these were the same people who were giving her a hard time for modeling before she was pregnant. When you look at this photo, from just a matter of weeks ago, you can really see how much Paola’s body is changing. This is such exciting news for her. Some days, it seems that almost none of the couples on 90 Day Fiance get their happily ever after. (Some are downright miserable — and others turn out to be criminals) We wish all the best to Paola and Russ and their baby boy . View Slideshow: 34 Beautiful Celebrity Baby Bumps

Pete Davidson: I’m Getting Ariana Grande Pregnant with a Trap Baby!

It's been a few months now since Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson got engaged. Well, to be specific, it's been a few months now since they started dating and then immediately got engaged . But hey, they're still going strong, and that's what's important! These two have definitely had a whirlwind relationship though, that's for sure. They started dating in May, a few days after that he started getting tattoos in her honor, and a few days after that he began designing her engagement ring. About two weeks later, he received the ring and proposed. And we all know she said yes! There's been several rumors about them since then, like the one about how they're moving so fast because she's pregnant . It's been a while since that one started, so it's kind of been forgotten about. But according to some things Pete said during last night's season premiere of Saturday Night Live, there may just be some truth there! During the Weekend Update segment, host Colin Jost brought Pete out “to talk about how he spent his summer.” About his eventful summer, Pete said “I got engaged, and no one could believe it, and I can't believe it.” “Yeah, I get it,” he continued. “She's the number one pop star in the world and I'm the guy from SNL that everyone thinks is in desperate need of more blood.”' He also said that things have been pretty wild since he started dating Ariana. “You remember when that whole city pretended that kid was Batman 'cause he was, like, sick?” he asked. “That's what this feels like.” When asked about all the new attention he's been getting for the past few months, he laughed and said “I hate it, it's awful.” He said that it was “so scary,” and that he'd been getting death threats.   “It's Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, and Pete Davidson are all people who have gotten death threats,” he joked. Next, Colin asked about a prenup, which Pete said that he “obviously” wanted. “God forbid we split up and she takes half my sneakers!” he explained. On a slightly more serious note, he insisted that he's “totally comfortable being with a successful woman,” and that they even live in an apartment that belongs to Ariana. “She pays like 60 grand for rent and all I have to do is stock the fridge.” When Colin said that men don't have to be the breadwinner in relationships, Pete strongly agreed. He also said “Last night I switched her birth control with Tic Tacs.” When the audience audibly reacted to that, he defended himself with “No, I believe in us and all, but you know, I just wanna make sure that she can't go anywhere.” Colin finished up the interview by bringing up Ariana's song on her new album named after Pete, which Pete said was “sick.” As he pointed out, he actually gets royalties for the song. Which is neat, he argued, because if they ever break up, then in ten years “there will be a song called 'Pete Davidson' playing in speakers at K-Mart, and I'll be working there.” Obviously this whole interview is a joke, even if it is based on Pete's real relationship. But it's nice to see that he's comfortable enough with Ariana that he can make jokes like this, you know? Watch the full interview in the video below:

Big Brother Couple Reveals Miscarriage in Middle of Season 20

Bayleigh Dayton and Swaggy C concluded Big Brother Season 20 on quite a high note: On Wednesday evening, the reality star shocked viewers by getting engaged on an emotional and intense finale. Two days later, however, the pair got together for a YouTube video and confessed that this major high followed a tragic low just a few weeks earlier. Bayleigh miscarried Swaggy's baby while the CBS series was in the middle of filming. “During our time in the Big Brother house, I did conceive a little baby, but unfortunately — and we don't know why — but I had a miscarriage in the jury house,” Dayton says in the video featured here, adding; “It's something that we're still figuring out. We actually just got a chance to talk to each other about it for the first time today.” The news came as a surprise, it sounds like, but a welcome one. “I would've been ecstatic if I were to have a baby,” Bayleigh continued. “It would've been a blessing, and we were both really excited when we found out. And we were both really, really upset when we found out we lost it. [Swaggy] knew that I lost the baby before he decided to propose, and he still decided to propose. “So the whole people saying, 'He's only proposing 'cause I'm pregnant' thing — that's hurtful, so stop.” Swaggy reiterated this point when it was his turn to speak. “People keep saying that I'm proposing because she's pregnant, and that's not the case at all,” he said. “But going through that process and creating a child but also losing a child with her made me realize that this is my girl, and I'm going to marry her. “I don't care that we've only been together for 23 days. I don't care. This is the one I wanna spend the rest of my life with.” Dayton and Swaggy became the first stars to ever get engaged on a Big Brother finale. And, we'd have to assume, the first stars to suffer this sort of tragedy during filming as well. As a caption to the video, Swaggy wrote the following: We know the rumors going around. Bayleigh and I were so excited to be parents. 6 weeks pregnant. Unfortunately, circumstances happen and we had a miscarriage. I wanna thank the HIVE for taking care of my Fiancé in the jury house during her hospital visits, and I wanna thank both of our families for keeping me sane afterwards. Also, a thanks to CBS for making sure she was taken care of properly.  Love you all. Thank you for your support. Check out the emotional footage now.

Kim Kardashian to Scott Disick: Give Kourtney Some Sperm!

According to a previous report, Kim Kardashian wants her sister to get back together with Scott Disick . This may or may not be true. But the former sex tape star says herself in the Keeping Up with the Kardashians clip featured here that she wants at least one thing for Kourtney and Scott: A BABY! In this sneak peek, Kim is talking to close pal Larsa Pippen when she says the following: “So Scott just texts me that he wants to have another baby … with Kourtney. I think he just wants one more, and she wants one more.” We never actually see this text, of course. And it seems somewhat ridiculous to believe that Scott would just text this to Kim — but whatever. Let's go ahead and suspend disbelief for a few moments. “She definitely wants more kids,” Larsa replies. “If they both want to have more kids, why not have them together? Their kids are gorgeous.” “I mean, it's like, Scott has a girlfriend, Kourtney has a boyfriend, we get it,” Kim says, referring to Sofia Richie and, at the time this was filmed, Younes Bendjima. “They don't even have to have sex. It could be IVF.” That's true, we suppose. If both sides of this former couple simply want a fourth child, there is a way to make that happen without intercourse. “When I got pregnant with North, I had no idea if Kanye and I were going to end up together,” Kim then admits, adding: “I was like, 'We can break up, but let me just at least have some sperm, so I can have another one, so I could have siblings.'” This is the first time, we believe, that Kim has said anything of this nature. In the clip featured on this page, though, she takes things a step beyond one conversation with Pippen. She gets motivated to really push for this Scott-and-Kourtney-have-another-child plan, evidently sending an email to other members of her family. But… OOPS! Something goes wrong with it! What does Kim screw up? Watch this footage to find out!

Dean Unglert: Colton Underwood Will Be the Worst Bachelor EVER!

Dean Unglert is best known for having made a self-admitted a$$ out of himself on Bachelor on Paradise . But the ABC personality is here with a dire warning for anyone who is excited about Colton Underwood as the network’s next Bachelor… … and that warning is this: Underwood is about to make a major a$$ out of the show in general! In a manner of speaking, that is. “I love Colton, don’t get me wrong, but [he’s] not my Bachelor,” Unglert told Entertainment Tonight at the 2018 iHeartRadio Music Festival at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, adding: “He’s a very nice person… He’s well-intentioned. He is beautiful.” Alright! Great! So… what is Unglert’s objection to Underwood being named The Bachelor ? “I just think it’s going to be a dumpster fire.” Oh. Okay then. Underwood finished in third place on the most recent season The Bachelorette. He is famously a virgin , although not for religious reasons. Colton has simple said on numerous occasions that he’s waiting for the right person with whom he wants to knock boots for the first time. Specifically, what is Unglert’s beef with Underwood? He’s a little young. He’s younger than me,” Unglert explained to ET, expounding as follows: “He might be more advanced in his life than I am, but I don’t necessarily see him marrying the woman that he chooses… I don’t think he knows exactly what he wants.” This may be true, of course. But it’s unclear why Dean would say this about Colton. If anything, Underwood appears to be taking the whole idea of finding the right woman as seriously as anyone can. The guy hasn’t even had sex yet because he wants to be sure! Unglert himself was once a frontrunner for The Bachelor… until he got himself involved in an intense and explosive love triangle on Bachelor in Paradise Season 4. And he at least says here that he would not any better as a Bachelor than he predicts Underwood will be. “I imagine Colton’s season going the same way mine would [have], where he wants to do right by everyone and wants no one to hate him and that’s going to just go ahead and bite him right ahead in the butt,” Unglert said in this interview. “I’d be a horrible Bachelor for the same reasons Colton would be horrible and will be horrible.” Fair enough. Unglert concludes by offering up better options he thinks ABC should have gone with for its next Bachelor. “It should’ve been Jason, it should’ve been Blake, it should’ve been Ben, maybe Nick again. It could’ve been Peter,” he says. Do you agree? Or are you actually looking forward to Colton Underwood as The Bachelor, especially that REALLY awkward fantasy suite episode?

Cheyenne Floyd: Teen Mom Fans Will Love Me Even Though I’m a Fraud!

Cheyenne Floyd is just weeks away from turning 26, which puts her on par with a number of Teen Mom OG stars. Unlike her new co-stars, however, Cheyenne did not actually become a mother as a teenager. She became a mother when she was … 23. Now, she is addressing the backlash about that, and explaining why fans will agree that Cheyenne belongs on the show . Speaking to Us Weekly , Cheyenne Floyd says that part of the reason that people are bristling at her casting is simple semantics. “I think that a lot of people are stuck on the word,” Cheyenne laments. That word, of course, being teen . She’s a grown woman who was never a teenage parent who is now getting paid a lot of money to appear on Teen Mom OG . Cheyenne admits that, but says: “and at the end of the day I’m still young mom.” “I still have the same struggles,” Cheyenne explains. “And I’m still learning just like everyone else.” “I don’t think 23 is the ideal age to have a baby,” Cheyenne points out. It very rarely is. Your body might be at its healthiest, but even if you’re mega-rich, you’re still young and living your life. Also, your brain isn’t quite done maturing. “She was unplanned,” Cheyenne says of her young daughter. “So in other ways, other than me not being a teen, I have different things that you can relate.” Most viewers of Teen Mom OG are not, themselves, teenage mothers and never were. “So instead of me screaming all day long that I’m not a teen mom,” Cheyenne concludes. “I’d rather just talk about things that I am.” Cheyenne shares that fans and viewers can expect to learn a lot about her and her baby daddy, Cory Wharton. “Prior to doing Teen Mom , we kept everything to ourselves as far as what happened,” Cheyenne says. “So it’s going to be really interesting to see what the viewers think after they find out.” That … will depend upon what viewers find out, we suppose. “We’re good,” Cheyenne says of their relationship as co-parents. “We’re best friends.” “We work together with everything and put everything into Ryder,” she adds. “So we have a good relationship.” “They have a different kind review about Cory,” she says of doubtful fans. “And,” Cheyenne continues. “They haven’t seen me on TV since I did The Challenge and I literally had the baby right after.” Cheyenne is definitely not overexposed, that’s true. “So it will be interesting to see what they think about is his parents,” she says. “And,” Cheyenne concludes. “We’re excited to show our healthy coparenting relationship.” Cheyenne is controversial for more than just that. See, people accused her of racism due to some old tweets that resurfaced when her casting news broke. Tweets attributed to Cheyenne expressed a desire to kill white people and particularly to kill white babies, and also said something about being a nazi. While anti-white sentiments aren’t necessarily racism (in that they’re not systemic and function as empty words, which is not true for genuine racism), those tweets were disturbing. Cheyenne promises that she’s not racist and says that she shared the Twitter account with others. More importantly, the heinous tweets were made years ago. Will she be able to overcome this baggage and endear herself to fans? We’ll find out in October. View Slideshow: Teen Mom OGs Dish on Newbies: What Do They Think of Bristol and Cheyenne?

The Voice Recap: Who Won Night 2 of the Blind Auditions?

The Voice returned Monday with a brand new twist, and some of the best vocalists in the show’s fifteen season history.  Did Tuesday’s episode manage to keep up the pace?  Well, there were some excellent performances and some terrible ones.  Let’s break down the latest string of contestants making their way to the next round.  Keith Paluso (Team Blake) – “Way Down We Go” This Kaleo classic is not an easy song to perform by any stretch of the imagination, but 30-year-old park ranger, Keith, made it his own.  There wasn’t a bad thing to say about the performance. It was flawless and put a new spin on this song that has been used a little too much for emotional scenes on drama series.  Team Blake should be good to Keith if the song choices are right for him.  Claire DeJean (Team Kelly) – “Hurt Somebody” Meh. That’s about all there is to say about this performance. Clair is 17-years-old and teaches acting and dance.  Her vocals were bland, and there was nothing to really distinguish her from some of the other performers who did not make the cut.  Kelly took her on, but we think this is going to wind up being a big mistake.  Franc West (Team Jennifer) – “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” This was another sub-par performance. This 38-year-old took up singing while he was in the Navy, but he didn’t have the wow factor you expect from the people who advance to the next stage.  Being on Jennifer’s team, there’s every reason to believe she will do her best to find the right genre of music for him.  If she does not, he won’t make it very far.  Michael Lee (Team Blake) – “The Thrill Is Gone” Michael flew through his performance. It was so fast-paced that it made the judges wonder what the heck was going on.  But there was a solid voice in there, and one that could be nurtured by spending some time on Team Blake. Thankfully, he made his way to Mr. Shelton’s country crooner club.  DeAndre Nico (Team Adam) –  “When I Was Your Man” This NBC reality series usually saves the best for last, and DeAndre’s Bruno Mars cover found him with a four-chair turn.  With vocals that reached dizzying heights, we think it’s fair to say that DeAndre performed better than Mars himself. He was THAT good.  Before his performance, we learned that he was hit hard by Hurricane Harvey.  Okay, what did you think of Night 2 of the Blind Auditions? Did the right ones make it through to the next stage? Hit the comments below.  The Voice continues Monday on NBC.  View Slideshow: The Voice Winners: RANKED!

Victor Ortiz: Boxing Champion Arrested for Rape

Victor Ortiz is a professional boxer and has also taken on acting roles and appeared on Dancing With The Stars . On Tuesday, September 25, Ortiz was arrested on rape charges following a months-long police investigation. He faces three charges of felony sexual assault. In the afternoon on Tuesday, Ortiz surrendered to authorities at the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department East Valley Station. Ortiz, a 31-year-old boxer and resident of Tarzana, Los Angeles, was booked for forcible rape, forcibal oral copulation, and forcible digital penetration. Bail has been set at $100,000. This is not Ortiz’s first run-in with the law, as he was charged with assault with a deadly weapon in 2015 and ultimately agreed to a plea of battery and was placed on probation. These charges sound more serious than his verbal-altercation-turned-physical at a Kenny Chesney concert, however. This is also more serious than his DUI. The charges stem from March 19 of 2018, when an adult female victim contacted the Oxnard Police Department to report that she had been sexually assaulted within a residence. The Oxnard Family Protection Unit — think SVU, basically — took charge of the investigation. After several months, determined that they had enough to present to the Venture County District Attorney’s Office. Prosecutors agreed, and a warrant was issued for Ortiz. His victim has not been identified, of course, beyond the fact that she is an adult woman. As we mentioned, Victor Ortiz is a professional heavyweight boxer. In 2011, he held the WBC welterweight title. Within the ring, he was known for his aggressive style and for being a crowd-pleaser, and was ranked one of the best boxers in the world. He has also appeared on the large and small screen, notably as a contestant on Dancing With The Stars . His film career has included roles in The Expendables 3 , Southpaw , and Once Upon a Time in Venice . He also appeared on Hawaii Five-O in 2016, portraying a boxer. And he made a cameo on Showtime’s Ray Donovan . Ortiz is a native of Garden City, Kansas. He took up boxing as a child. His mother abandoned their family, and his father took up drinking and became violent. Victor Ortiz has a son with Deborah Mather. It is currently unclear if the two of them are still in a relationship, as the last report of them dating was in February of 2018. However, she continues to appear on Ortiz’s social media, though usually in the context of their very young son, Victor Royal Ortiz. Mather’s Instagram is set to private. Her profile tagline reads “Then I saw there was a way to Hell, even through the gates of Heaven.” That is … quite the quote. On September 23, it was announced that Ortiz would be fighting former world title challenger John Molina Jr. in Ontario, California. The fight was to take place on September 30. In light of Ortiz’s arrest on September 25, it is unclear if this fight is to take, even if Ortiz is released on bail. This is a troubling story, and we expect that more upsetting details will come to light as Ortiz’s sexual assault case moves forward. View Slideshow: Hollywood Sex Scandal: Who’s Been Caught?
