Khloe Kardashian: I’m Not in Denial About Tristan Thompson Cheating, Okay?!

It’s been a couple of weeks since Tristan Thompson was exposed cheating on Khloe Kardashian , and yet … there’s been no confirmed breakup. Some worry that Khloe doesn’t have a klue. But a new report says that she’s not oblivious or in denial … she just has a lot of things to consider. Hmmm … A source has come forward to tell Entertainment Tonight that Khloe is not delusional and she’s heard most of the things that the rest of us have about Tristan and his adventurous penis. “She’s not in a bubble of denial.” Denial happens to a lot of people when bad news breaks. And some celebrities are notorious for sometimes living in a “bubble” that excludes information that the rest of the world can see on a daily basis. Apparently, that’s not the case with Khloe. “She knows what’s going on and is still trying to process it.” There’s a lot to process, of course. What has some folks puzzled is that Khloe hasn’t cut Tristan loose, publicly and permanently, just yet. “But so far, she’s managed to move past it and look forward.” Tristan Thompson has reportedly been cheating on Khloe through her pregnancy with at least five different women. He apparently didn’t feel a need to wear a condom while his penis was on its secret walkabout. And one of these hookups is said to have taken place  the night before   Khloe’s baby shower . Gross. Khloe and those in her inner circle of friends have internet access, just like the rest of us. “Her friends and family are learning all these new details.” Also like the rest of us, they’re apparently working to parse what is fact and what is an opportunist selling an alleged story for a quick buck. “And it’s hard to know what’s just someone trying to cash in and what is true.” When you don’t know what’s true and what’s not, because these things are difficult to verify, you don’t know what to pass on to the person who may need to hear it. “It’s tough to know what, if anything, to tell Khloe.” Do you ever have a friend who just refuses to hear any criticisms of her man? To no one’s real surprise, it sounds like Khloe is of that temperament. “If a friend tells Khloe that they heard about another cheating story, they risk being cut off by her.” That sounds drastic, but Khloe is in an emotional place right now. So apparently she may just not want to hear it. Even if she needs to. We can imagine that a lot of people who love Khloe are walking on eggshells. “She’s stuck by her man in the past, so it doesn’t even seem worth it to fill her in on all the details.” The source dishes on Khloe’s surprising plans. “Khloe is very settled in Cleveland right now and is planning on staying another few weeks to a month at least.” Despite Khloe’s family’s (and common sense’s) urges for her to get the hell out of Cleveland and back to her family, it sounds like Khloe’s not leaving any time soon. Maybe that’s doctor’s orders, but that sounds like she’s reluctant to break off her relationship with Tristan. “Of course, that could change, especially since every day there seems to be more stories [coming] out about Tristan.” Another source has recently dished about Khloe’s convicted feelings, saying: “Khloe loves him deeply. He is the father of her child, but she feels betrayed and blindsided.” At the risk of sounding blunt, being the father of her child at this point just means that the guy has viable sperm. Haven’t his actions made it very clear that he’s passing out his DNA like a party favor? “Khloe’s main focus is being a mother and figuring out what is best for True.” If it’s true that Tristan is still hooking up with one of his side pieces, even as he is allegedly begging for Khloe’s forgiveness, that sounds like something that Khloe needs to know. Even if it’s not fun to hear it. But we can understand why the people who love her aren’t willing to put their friendship on the line to warn her. It’s hard to see how she could decide that staying with Tristan is the right thing. All things considered, some fear that Tristan would see it as unspoken permission to continue to cheat. Even if he manages to keep his metaphorical ball (penis) in his own court, does she really want to stay with the man who humiliated her on the week when her child was born? Not only does that seem like a toxic relationship for Khloe, but that seems like a less than ideal environment for True.

Blake Shelton Throws All the Shade at Miranda Lambert for Dating Evan Felker

Blake Shelton holds many titles: Blake Shelton, Country Music Superstar. Blake Shelton, The Voice Coach. And to this list, we must now add: Blake Shelton, Flamethrower Extraordinaire. The beloved singer took Twitter followers by surprise on Wednesday afternoon when he heated up social media via one simple message that was clearly intended to burn his ex-wife to her core. And here’s why: Earlier this week, it was confirmed by multiple outlets that Miranda Lambert is dating Evan Felker. On its own, this development isn’t particularly shocking, considering Felker fronts the band that has been opening for Lambert on tour. HOWEVER, both Radar Online and Us Weekly report that Lambert very likely broke up Felker’s marriage by sleeping with the musician, as the former website has even obtained the artist’s divorce papers. They cite Felkner’s “abandonment” of ex-wife Staci Nelson and they were filed in February, right around the time Felkner allegedly got with Lambert. Just this revelation on its own was newsworthy and noteworthy. Heck, we wrote an entire article about it. But now we get to write a follow-up because Shelton has seemingly responded to the rumor that his ex-wife is a homewrecker by Tweeting the following: Been taking the high road for a long time.. I almost gave up.  But I can finally see something on the horizon up there!! Wait!! Could it be?! Yep!! It’s karma!! Whoa there! Well, alright then! Do you want a coat from all the shivering you must be doing now that so much shade has been hurled in your direction, Miranda? There’s really no way for anyone to interpret Blake’s message as anything other than a statement that Lambert cheated on him. The stars were married for four years and then split up in 2015 amid chatter that each side was unfaithful. But Shelton said very little at the time. He said at every occasion that he and Lambert would always be close and he’d always have a special place in his heart for her and yadda, yadda, yadda. However, it’s not as though there weren’t rumblings of Lambert’s cheating. Heck, there was one rumbling that said she cheated on Shelton FIVE times . The following tabloid cover alleged as much, quoting an insider who said Shelton caught Lambert in the act as one point and was left “heartbroken and furious” by her actions. If these reports were accurate, it would be hard to blame Shelton for now enjoying the fact that Lambert’s reputation has taken a hit due to her sexual intercourse with a married man. The country legend, of course, has moved very far on from Lambert. He’s been happily dating Gwen Stefani for ages, constantly gushing over her on Instagram and considering marrying her , if certain gossip out there is to be believed. Shelton also once said the following to Billboard about Stefani, who had recently broken up with husband Gavin Rossdale when she became intimate with Blake: “Who else on earth could understand going through a high-profile divorce from another musician? You can’t even imagine the similarities in our divorces.” If you’ll recall, Rossdale supposedly cheated on Stefani for years with the couple’s nanny. Could being the victims of cheating be what Shelton was talking about when citing the pair’s “similarities.” You tell us. (The answer is yes.)

Audrey Roloff Skips Jacob Engagement Party, Fuels Feud Rumors

Audrey Roloff often posts about faith and family. But while the Little People, Big World star clearly has a great deal of the former, we’re definitely starting to believe talk that she has some issues with the latter. Specifically, we’re pretty certain Audrey and Jacob Roloff do not get along. Like, at all . Chatter over whether Audrey and her brother-in-law hate each other started circulating in December, back when the Internet realized that they never appear in photos together. Like, ever . This is especially unusual when you consider how often the Roloffs hang out and how often Audrey shares pictures of herself and her loved ones. So, we got to thinking: Why would Audrey and Jacob not get along ? And there are actually a couple obvious reasons: 1. Audrey is VERY open about her strong faith and religion, while Jacob is either agnostic or atheist. He certainly isn’t a practicing Catholic. 2. Jacob is like Holden Caulfield in Catcher in the Rye: he hates phonies. Remember, two years ago he quit Little People, Big World because he couldn’t stand the scripted nature of the series. How does point number-two relate to Audrey? She’s faced some scrutiny from followers who seem to think she exploits her religion to make money . So this all brings us to the latest reason to believe there really is bad blood between Audrey and Jacob. Over this past weekend, the family hosted an engagement party for Jacob and Isabel Rock, about four months after the former proposed to the latter during a trip abroad. And you can guess who didn’t show up, right? Based on photographs shared on Instagram at least, that is? Yup: Audrey Roloff. “We celebrated Jacob and Izzy yesterday! What a great engagement party it was!” Jacob wrote as a caption to the first image in this article. As you can see above, he’s posing with mother Amy, brother Jacob, daughter Ember and… that’s it. Could Audrey simply have had other plans? Absolutely. Could she even have been at the gathering, just not in this picture? Yes. But there’s starting to be a pattern here. Considering the divergent personalities of Audrey and Jacob, it’s not far-fetched that they wouldn’t get along. Nor would it even be that huge of a deal. Who says all in-laws have to get along perfectly well? View Slideshow: Little People, Big World Secrets Exposed: What the Roloffs Won’t Tell You We’re just noting here that there’s yet another example of a rivalry within one of television’s most beloved families. Perhaps Audrey and Jacob will work it out, perhaps not. Perhaps there’s some smoke here, but no fire… although we doubt it because all talk of a feud could be so easily solved if the stars simply posed in the same picture together. Not even side by side. Just in the same frame! Until that happens, however, we’ll continue to speculate and Internet users will continue to ask questions. That’s just how this all works.

Rachel Lindsay: Bachelor Fans Are Too Racist to Have Another Black Bachelorette

Rachel Lindsay was The Bachelorette ‘s first black leading lady. A lot of people were troubled that it took until Season 13 for that to happen. Now, Rachel is engaged, but she’s not optimistic about the chances of seeing another black Bachelorette in the near future. Why? Because, well, the viewers are racist. Speaking to Us Weekly , Rachel Lindsay shares her doubts about the next black Bachelorette lead . “I don’t think Bachelor Nation is ready for the diversity of a lead … an African American lead.” That is … so heartbreaking to hear. Rachel does clarify that she thinks that there will be leads of color in the future, but she says: “I think there’ll be an [African American] man before there’ll be another woman.” That is, unfortunately, what happens in a culture where white (among other things) is treated as “default.” Her fiancee, Bryan Abasolo, adds: “I think there definitely needs to be more diversity on the show.” That is something that a number of fans have called four. The surplus of Laurens on the last season of The Bachelor really illustrated how homogenous the casts can be. Bryan says: “Whether America is ready for it, that’s yet to be seen.” Rachel interjects, saying that she has more concerns about the franchise’s fanbase than she does about overall American culture. “It’s not America; it’s Bachelor Nation.” Rachel explains that, even if Arie’s brutal breakup had never happened, whoever would have been the lead in Becca Kufrin’s stead would not have been black. “I don’t think that there would have been two black Bachelorettes in a row.” And she can point to exactly why. “I just don’t think the nation … I mean look at the ratings from the season.” Her season’s ratings, she says, were “significantly lower than Jojo’s.” That is heartbreaking. Rachel says that she didn’t see racist trolling against her on social media … which is totally believable, if she has never once checked her mentions from people she doesn’t already follow. Bryan admits that he “definitely saw it.” “There was a lot of backlash in terms of race for her, and I think she handled herself with such grace and elegance and pride.” Remember, there was even a racist guy on her season — though not for long. “I think she represented the African American community beautifully.” That she did. Racial representation is not and has never been a strong suit of The Bachelor. Are so many members of the Bachelor Nation truly so very racist that they just won’t tune in to watch a black woman find love? We’d love to believe that there’s another culprit. But Rachel brings up a great point. And something has to change. For that matter, many in the Bachelor Nation have wanted diversity in other ways. A Bachelor or Bachelorette. A trans Bachelor or Bachelorette. And let’s not forget that racial diversity isn’t limited to the African American community. Representation is important.

Catelynn Lowell Opens Up About Suicidal Thoughts In Shocking Interview

As expected, last night’s Teen Mom OG reunion show was loaded with drama, much of it having to do with ongoing questions about Ryan Edwards’ sobriety. But while Ryan’s situation may have dominated the tabloid headlines in recent weeks, he’s certainly not the only member of the TMOG cast to grapple with personal demons this season. Catelyn Lowell checked into rehab three times over the course of the past year. Unlike Ryan, however, her primary battle was not with substances but with mental illness. Lowell opened up about experiencing suicidal thoughts prior to seeking treatment in November, and during her interview with Dr. Drew that aired last night, she revealed that her situation has improved dramatically in recent months. “If I don’t go somewhere else today, I’m going to off myself and life would be 10 times better,” Catelynn said, recalling her lowest point. “I could picture myself driving into an electrical pole off the road, praying it would kill me. But I wouldn’t do it because I had my kid in the backseat.” These days, Catelynn says, her life is not without its struggles, but changes in her diagnosis ( Lowell suffers from PTSD ) and her medications have left her feeling that she’s equipped to handle the ups and downs. Lowell also says she’s quit pot for good after being advised that the use of recreational drugs might have exacerbated her condition in the past. For his part, Tyler said he still smokes occasionally but was quick to add that he never gets high in his wife’s presence. “I don’t smoke around her,” Tyler told Dr. Drew. Lowell stated in several recent interviews that Tyler has been endlessly supportive throughout her recent struggles. The segment ended with more good news for the Baltierra clan, as  Tyler’s troubled father, Butch Baltierra , joined the proceedings via Skype and informed the audience that he’s been sober ever since completing rehab back in November. It was a bittersweet interview, with Lowell addressing the subject of her miscarriage and fighting tears while discussing the “emotional year” that threatened to tear her family apart. But Catelynn and Tyler survived, in part thanks to their love for one another. Yes, Ryan’s recent bad behavior may make for more scandalous television, but thankfully TMOG viewers seem more interested in celebrating the casts’ successes than in gawking at their misfortunes. Watch Teen Mom OG online for more on Catelynn’s courageous struggle. View Slideshow: Catelynn Lowell Checks into Rehab AGAIN: What Happened?!
