It goes without saying that Farrah Abraham is not your typical mom. At 10 years old, her daughter Sophia basically functions in the capacity of a best friend/road manager, and Farrah justifies it with the belief that the girl is getting a better education traveling the world than she would ever receive in a classroom. Maybe that's true. Or maybe Farrah is just trying to justify treating her daughter like an employee. Whatever the case, even supporters of the former Teen Mom OG star feel that she crossed the line this week thanks to an Instagram post that's ignited some major controversy. Take a look: 1. The Traveling Twosome It seems every time you look at her Instagram page, Farrah is in some exotic new location with daughter Sophia in tow. 2. Why? We’ll Never Know … Last week, it was the Venice Film Festival, where Farrah and Sophia were invited to several red carpet premieres for reasons that aren’t entirely clear. 3. Trouble at the Fest Organizers quickly regretted allowing Farrah to attend. First, there was the incident in which she tried to steal the spotlight by flashing a little vadge on the red carpet. 4. Of Course Shortly thereafter, Farrah and Sophia walked into the world premiere of a film more than an hour late. 5. Here We Go “We were like an hour late ‘cause we’re not used to this. And so we go in there, and this guy kept turning around and kept bothering me,” Abraham later said. 6. Farrah? Irresponsible?! “It’s like, why is he still trying to talk to me?” she added. “And then he starts saying I’m not responsible. I should have my daughter out of the movie, blah blah blah.” View Slideshow
On this week’s new episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County , Braunwyn got the full force of Tamra’s suspicions and high-pitched ire. While they worked on their issues, Kelly Dodd is still grappling with that group sex rumor . Emily had to deal with her husband’s cold indifference, but worst of all, Gina found out that there was a bench warrant for her arrest. It turns out that Braunwyn Windham-Burke spoke to both Gretchen Rossi and Lizzie Rovsek. Both alums have been enemies of Tamra ever since they were involved in rumors about Eddie’s sexuality. “I heard you contacted Lizzie and Gretchen to talk to them,” Tamra accused Braunwyn, asking if she is a “troublemaker.” Now, the newcomer says that she’s no such thing — that it’s just a mutual friends situation. However, Shannon brought up that Emily has screenshots of Braunwyn’s texts that prove that it’s a little more than that. Braunwyn had tried to spin the situation as the other women having reached out to her, but Shannon blurts out: “We see the texts that you reached out to her.” “If you’re a f–king liar,” Tamra exclaims. “I need to know!” Tamra repeats the accusation that she’s a liar again and again, to the point where Kelly pleads with her castmates to be kinder. Braunwyn was visibly tearing up under the verbal assault and even tried to apologize for misstating, but Tamra does not respond kindly. After a while of badgering, she gets up and moves to the front of the bus to cry. Eventually, Tamra came to her senses and offered her some comfort. Braunwyn discussed the issue with her mother at dinner, admitting to Dr. Deb that she lies because she wants people to like her. In a confessional, Braunwyn admits that her mother is the root of her need to be liked. “Growing up, all I ever wanted was a mom that always put me first,” she admits. “And I never had that.” “She was so focused on her own career and her own life,” Braunwyn explains. She concludes: “That there was a sense that no matter how much she loves me, she’ll always love herself more.” Yeah, that’ll mess you up. When she explained that to Tamra and Shannon, they were both understanding. Speaking of dining with doctors, Kelly Dodd sat down with Dr. Brian. In real life, Kelly and Brian broke up , but this of course was filmed earlier this year. After dropping some wildly unsubtle engagement hints in his direction, Kelly speaks to him about the train rumor. To refresh your memory and knowledge of sex terms, this was a rumor that Kelly had boned multiple dudes, one after the other in one sitting. In truth, Kelly has never even had a threesome , which sounds unbelievable but she’s of an older generation and she’s spent a lot of her life married. Dr. Brian offers up some sage advice to brush off the rumor with a joke instead of worrying over it. Speaking of relationships that are probably on the brink of collapse, Emily Simpson tries to have a conversation with Shane. Who knew that asking your spouse about how his day has gone could be so awkward and frustrating? In the cringeworthy clip, we see Emily try to get him to open up to her, only to be stonewalled. It’s like asking a moody teenager how their day at school was, only Shane is a fully grown adult — and hadn’t seen her for 10 days. When Emily asks him how he feels, he replies “I feel ready for dinner.” Not helpful. Not the time or the place. Shane sits for a confessional and gets downright rude, admitting that he doesn’t miss his family while he’s away at work. Yikes, dude. At the same time, Gina Kirschenheiter missed her court date for her DUI — but not because she doesn’t care. “My attorney put in to postpone this arraignment date,” Gina explains. “But he didn’t check to confirm that it actually was accepted.” “And it was denied,” Gina tells the camera. “So as far as the court’s concerned, I just didn’t show up.” This is after Shannon had warned her that her attorney friend overheard that a judge had put out a bench warrant for Gina. Thankfully, Shannon’s non-terrible attorney friend was able to get the bench warrant recalled at the last minute — averting Gina’s arrest by 3 hours. Gina and Shannon then bonded over their miserable divorces and admitted how they had envied one another last season. View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 14: Everything We Know

Derek Peth didn’t simply leave Bachelor in Paradise Monday night . He also left his fellow Bachelor in Paradise contestants questioning their feelings, themselves and their place on the show in general. In particular, we write here about Tayshia Adams and Blake Horstmann and their reaction yesterday evening to Derek’s stunning departure. Tayshia, for instance, wasn’t certain how she felt about John Paul Jones in the wake of the Derek decision, while Blake had started to realizie his chances of finding love in Mexico were slim to, quite possibly, none. Yes, Adams admitted, she had a “soft spot” for Jones — but what did that really mean in the bigger picture? As for Horstmann? He had an epiphany on Tuesday’s episode and actually convinced himself that Kristina Schulman was the woman he had been searching for all along. “We always gravitate toward each other,” he told viewers on air. “Maybe we owe each other this, to give it a shot.” Suddenly inspirde, Blake grabbed Kristina for a chat and told her he was “all in” and totally sure of it… at the moment. “I thought I just wanted to be friends with you, I did,” he said. “And here I am, saying that I can’t stop thinking about you. It’s driving me f—ing crazy and it’s terrifying.” Could Kristina actually trust the guy responsible for so much drama this season ? She actually decided yes , she was willing to do so… resulting in Mike Johnson getting sent home at the rose ceremony. (So he could go prep to be the next Bachelor , we pray really hard.) Watch Bachelor in Paradise Season 6 Episode 10 Online The next morning, just as Blake and Kristina were beginning to explore their romance, everyone was thrown for a loop — thanks to a pair of arrivals. First, in walked Bri Barnes from Colton Underwood‘s season of The Bachelor. It turns out that Blake and Bri had hit it off at Chris Randone and Krystal Nielson’s wedding just days prior (because of course they did) and when Barnes pulled Blake aside for a discussion, Kristina basically lost it. And yet: Blake stuck to his word, nicely declining Bri’s date card. She ended up going surfing with fellow newcomer Matt Donald, while Blake desperately – and unsuccessfully – attempted to break down Kristina’s walls back at the bungalows. At last, we get to Caelynn Miller-Keyes and Connor Saeli (from Hannah Brown‘s season of The Bachelorette), two people looking for love and no drama. “I came here for a relationship, and finally, I feel good,” Caelynn said at one point. “Connor and I are exploring what we have, and I’m happy. I deserve this after the hell that I’ve been through.” However, all was about to change. Just when it seemed as if nothing could go wrong, a freshly-shaven Dean Unglert made his totally unexpected return (!!!!!!!!!!) to beg Caelynn for another chance after dumping her — just a week ago. “When I left, I made a decision that I thought was best for you, but it wasn’t really fair of me to make that decision,” he explained, adding: “Then I flew back to San Diego, and the entire flight back I literally could not stop thinking about you. I rented a car and drove to the Grand Canyon, and as I was there I thought about how badly I wished that you were there with me.” How sweet and not remotely scripted, right? “I knew that I needed to come here and tell you that I wanted us to try and be in a relationship,” Dean added. “I came here to ask you if you would leave Paradise with me today.” Wow, huh? Caelynn didn’t know what to say or what to do. “Right now, I’m the most confused I’ve ever been in my entire life. This is not an easy decision,” she said. “I literally have the dangerous guy and the perfect man. I have no idea what to do.” We’ll need to tune in next week to find out what she chooses.

Source: Cinzia Camela/WENN.com / WENN As the saying goes, hindsight is 20/20, and when Nate Parker looks back on the controversy he was previously embroiled in over past allegations of rape, he feels he could have handled things a lot differently. While promoting his newest film and perhaps his comeback project, American Skin , the 39-year-old took time out at a press conference for it to apologize for being “tone deaf” in his response to backlash over the old allegations . In 2016, information came out about a woman claiming Parker and former wrestling teammate, Jean McGianni Celestin, raped her while they were students at Penn State University in 1999. The actor always maintained his innocence and was found not guilty of all the charges against him (Celestin was found guilty), but he wasn’t apologetic about the circumstances he put the accuser in at the time (including having her identity exposed when they were in school), or the fact that she killed herself in 2012. All of the drama that encircled him over his past happened right before the Me Too Movement took full form, but his career still took a hit. The film he directed and was promoting at the time, Birth of a Nation , which was about Nat Turner, tanked at the box office and didn’t receive any awards season love after being a critical darling at Sundance Film Festival. “The last three years have been such a learning experience for me,” Parker said. “Three years ago I was pretty tone deaf to the realities of certain situations that were happening in the climate. And I’ve had a lot of time to think about that, and I’ve learned a lot from it. And being tone deaf, there were a lot of people that were hurt in my response, in the way I approached things. I apologize to those people.” “I’ve learned, I’m continuing to learn,” he added. “I’m 39 years old now. Hopefully I have a long way to go. The hope is that I can continue taking the wisdom from people who care enough…and help me to be introspective about where I am and what I’ve been through.” Sign Up For Our Newsletter!

Email Submit Parker certainly seems to have come a long way since he can admit that he wasn’t sensitive enough in his response to everything. At the time, while on the defense, he said there was nothing he felt like he needed to apologize for . “I was falsely accused…I went to court…I was vindicated,” he said in a 2016 interview with 60 Minutes. “I feel terrible that this woman isn’t here…her family had to deal with that, but as I sit here, an apology is—no.” Glad to hear he had a change of heart.

As for American Skin , Parker directed and stars in the film as an ex-Marine who takes justice into his own hands after seeing his unarmed son killed by police. Despite the personal drama that hindered his first feature film as director, he still doesn’t plan on shying away from telling important, tough stories. “I’m still learning and growing and still feeling the need to make films that speak to things that need to change in our country and the world,” he told the AP . “And this topic was very dear to me.” This story was originally published on MadameNoire.com .
