Larissa Lima and Colt Johnson: Still Together and Still Awful!

After he was exposed as a cheater, Colt Johnson claimed that 90 Day Fiance fame went to his head and made him cheat. Now, Colt is publicly apologizing to his wife and condemning fans who rush to judge him. Meanwhile, Larissa is claiming that, despite her domestic battery arrests , she has never been abusive to Colt. Speaking to InTouch Weekly , Larissa Dos Santos Lima condemns claims that she was abusive to Colt. “I was not abusive to Colt,” Larissa insists. She refers to both her behavior on 90 Day Fiance and to her two domestic battery arrests. “Anything pointing otherwise is extremely edited or taken out of context,” she claims. It’s true that reality shows, 90 Day Fiance included, may edit out context. But are we to believe that police reports about them do the same? Despite the recent revelations about Colt’s rampant cheating on her with various Instagram women, Larissa isn’t giving up. “I love Colt,” Larissa insists. “And we have normal relationship troubles like any other couple.” For the record, some friction with Colt’s mom is normal. The cheating, the domestic battery arrests, and the toxic fighting are not . “I understand his actions,” Larissa says. “And I will forgive him.” Yikes. “A true relationship,” Larissa believes. “Is two imperfect people unwilling to give up on each other.” In one of the messages that Larissa exposed, Colt claimed to an Instagram mistress that Larissa was “violent.” Within the context of the message, it appeared that he was using that as an excuse for why his online affair had to remain a secret. “He was lying to these girls,” Larissa says. “It was already proved.” “He was talking to a girl making promises of a relationship,” Larissa notes. “And talking to others as well behind her back.” “He was saying whatever he wanted to make these girls feel sorry for him,” Larissa points out. “If I was an abusive wife,” Larissa says. “He could just get divorced.” There are many abuse victims who have to stay with their partners for financial security, for their children, for citizenship, or in fear of their lives. As far as we know, Colt has no such ties forcing him to stay with Larissa. Larissa says that if she were abusive, “he would not be here right now asking me to come back to him.” “He is [begging] for forgiveness,” she characterizes. “So,” Larissa asks, in the eyes of some fans, “how come I am abusive?” Most of that was pretty well-reasoned. Unfortunately, Larissa then takes things too far and shoots herself in the foot. “The real abuse is the humiliation of being cheated,” Larissa claims. Cheating is a dicksh thing to do, but it is by no means as bad as abuse. Equating the two makes it sound like domestic violence is much less serious than it really is. “I am the abused victim here,” Larissa concludes, to the frustration of fans who have begun to root for her. At best, they may hope that something has been lost in translation from her native Portuguese. Larissa and Colt both shared a message that Colt wrote on Instagram. “All of these accusations are ridiculous and need to stop,” Colt insists. “Whatever problems I have in MY relationship,” he writes. “I’ll deal with them.” He doesn’t want advice on how to apologize or how to not cheat or how to not be a condescending jerk to her constantly. Colt says: “I will work on them in private.” Last week, fans learned of Colt’s multiple flirtations on social media. But Colt says that none of it is serious — at least, not anymore. “There is nobody special for me,” Colt writes. He clarifies: “There is no new girlfriend.” And to think that he’d been telling some women that he and Larissa were secretly separated but not telling anyone yet. “I love Larissa,” Colt claims. “And,” he continues. “I want to fight for our relationship.” Colt concludes: “and I apologize for all the pain I caused to her.” This couple has seemed toxic since Larissa stepped off the plane. Can they really make it work? Only time will tell. For now, Larissa is taking a break from social media. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance: Most Shocking Scandals Exposed!

Khloe Kardashian Destroys Troll Who Claims Kim Isn’t Chicago’s Real Mom

Apparently, some so-called fans are still confused over what Chicago West being born via surrogacy really means. When Kim Kardashian posted an innocuous photo, some very confused troll claims that Kim and Chicago aren’t actually related at all. It fell to Khloe to set the fool straight, and she did not mince words. Take a look: Kim Kardashian shared this throwback of her as an adorable young girl. “Always gorgeous just like both of your baby girls!!!!” Khloe gushed in the comments. “Blessed!!!” (Apparently, Saint can just choke, or Khloe is weirdly fixated on gendering her compliments) Kim’s family weren’t the only ones to take notice. Her fans raved over the throwback pic, and some of them observed how much young Kim looks like her youngest daughter. But a comment that attracted a lot of attention came from none other than Kylie Jenner. “Omg Chicago,” Kylie wrote sweetly. One followers — and it’s unclear if they’re confused, a troll, or a conspiracy theorist — didn’t care for that comparison. Instead, they tried to “correct” Kylie over seeing a similarity between mother and daughter. The commenter wrote that Chicago “would either look MORE like Kanye or the surrogate mother.” That is, of course, not accurate. As we all know, Kim had a gestational carrier — often colloquially referred to as a surrogate. Kim’s egg and Kanye’s sperm were used to create the zygote that eventually became Chicago. The “surrogate” contribute a womb, not chromosomes. Khloe took it upon herself to educate this misguided soul. “If you don’t really know about someone’s situation,” Khloe suggests. “Then maybe you shouldn’t comment.” That’s good advice for most circumstances. “Try informing yourself first before you make such silly statements doll,” Khloe writes. Khloe uses some terms of endearment in otherwise hostile messages and … she really missed her calling as a southerner. She continues: “Your passive wanna be petty comment is simply uneducated.” “Chicago is completely Kimberly’s biological child,” Khloe affirms. We all knew that, but allegedly this commenter did not, even though it was explaineda  bajillion times in 2017. “Praise the lord she was able to have a surrogate,” Khloe exclaims. Not every family has the means to do so. “And,” Khloe concludes. “That we are blessed with sweet gorgeous Chi Chi.” The fan — or troll — seemed to still not get it. “I never said the baby wasn’t beautiful [face with tears of joy emoji],” the commenter replied. “SHE DEFINITELY IS,” “But,” the commenter insisted. “She did have a surrogate.” “So,” the commenter doubled down. “The baby would either look MORE like Kanye or the surrogate mother.” “That’s all love,” the commenter signed off. That is just … still wrong. The womb doesn’t magically imbue genetic characteristics upon a baby. “I am not saying you said that love,” Khloe replies. Khloe continues: “I am saying you must be more informed before speaking on something that you don’t know anything about apparently.” “Chicago is Kimberly’s DNA,” Khloe oh-so-patiently explains. “Her and her husband made embryos,” Khloe spells out. “And then they were blessed enough to have a surrogate carry their child for them.” If you heat up chili with cheese in a microwave, it doesn’t come out microwave flavor. The gestational carrier is the microwave in this analogy, folks. Kim and Kanye are the chili and cheese. Khloe notes that this was important “since Kimberly is unable to.” “God bless modern medicine,” Khloe concludes. The lesson here is to not assume you know more than someone’s own family, and to only be a know-it-all if you actually know anything.

Things got emotional on last night's episode of Teen Mom OG . For years, Ryan Edwards substance abuse issue has been creating chaos not only for his wife, but for his ex and her family, as well. Through it all, Maci Bookout has made it clear that she very much wants her son to have a relationship with his father — but Bentley's safety has to come first. So as Ryan' stint in rehab came to an end, Maci was as nervous as anyone. And she reached out to Ryan's parents to share her concerns. Take a look: 1. Hard Times Ryan and Maci have struggled to co-parent peaceably in recent years, largely due to his substance abuse and legal issues. 2. Downward Spiral Ryan has been arrested three times in the past 18 months. 3.

Danielle Mullins: Mohamed Jbali Would Be Deported If I Weren’t So Nice!

Danielle Mullins and Mohamed Jbali’s contentious, controversial relationship has been credited with putting 90 Day Fiance on the map. Now that fan donations saved Danielle’s house , she’s answering some additional questions that a number of fans had. Just how hard did she work to get Mohamed deported? And, in this current climate, how likely is it that he’ll be sent back to Tunisia? Danielle shared a message to Instagram, clearly using speech-to-text (which jumbled a few words, which we’ve corrected). “For those that are questioning whether I got my ex deported,” Danielle’s message begins. She reveals: “The application he had to file in order to remove his conditions in order to get ten year card is backlogged over a year.” “So he could still get deported,” Danielle explains. “But then,” she notes. “He could appeal.” Danielle captioned the image with a little context. “Info for people questioning my ex’s green card,” Danielle writes. Previously, fans have wondered if Mohamed might be deported after he revealed that some of his paperwork had been lost in the mail. Many felt that it would be a real shame, since Mohamed has moved to Texas and is working hard to keep his life going. Others feel that after he cheated on Danielle and seemed to simply use her to come to America, he doesn’t deserve to be here. Others still agree that Mohamed’s motives were less than sincere, but felt that dealing with Danielle was enough that he “paid his dues,” so to speak. Danielle also took to a video for her fans in which she elaborated a little on the subject of her ex. “I felt used,” Danielle explains. “So I filed for an annulment.” “That was my best chance to get him deported,” she reasons. Who could forget Danielle telling Mohamed that she would do everything in her power to get him deported? “But when he begged me to file for a divorce instead,” Danielle claims. “I gave in so he could stay in America.” For the record, her own attorney told her that an annulment was unlikely to go through, because they had consummated their marriage exactly once . On a humorous note, Danielle’s text post about how Mohamed could eventually appeal if his Green Card isn’t extended was “liked” by Larissa Dos Santos Lima. Larissa is part of this season of 90 Day Fiance ‘s most controversial couple. Some say that she and Coltee have inherited Danielle and Mohamed’s mantle. Colt strikes people as condescending and, frankly, more than a little weird. Larissa strikes people — literally — according to her two arrests for domestic battery. She also loves to complain and flip out. Also, just last week, Larissa exposed Colt’s cheating with multiple women. Did Larissa just sympathize with Danielle as a woman who’s been cheated on, or is she taking notes on how to avoid deportation if she gets a divorce? Danielle explained why Mohamed is still in the United States from her perspective. So it makes sense that she claimed that it was her forgiving nature that allowed him to remain. We suspect that Mohamed would tell a different story. That said, he no longer seems interested in a reality career and just wants to live his life. Perhaps, if he were paid more than the pittance that 90 Day Fiance offers most of its cast members, he would change his tune. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Stars: How Much Are They Paid?

Pete Davidson: "Ignoring" Ariana Grande, Heading For Rehab Following Suicide Threat

SNL star Pete Davidson has always been candid about his struggles with mental illness and substance abuse. And in recent weeks, the comic’s updates about his health have led to serious concern among Pete’s fans, friends, and family. Davidson appeared to threaten suicide in a social media post on Friday. “i really don’t want to be on this earth anymore,” Davidson wrote on Instagram. “i’m doing my best to stay here for you but i actually don’t know how much longer i can last. all i’ve ever tried to do was help people. just remember i told you so.” Obviously, Pete’s message is deeply concerning. Fortunately, many have rallied to the 25-year-old’s support. Back in October,  Ariana Grande broke off her engagement with Pete, but she’s obviously still concerned about her ex’s well-being. “I’m downstairs and I’m not going anywhere if you need anyone or anything,” she wrote in response to Davidson’s cry for help. “I know u have everyone u need and that’s not me, but i’m here too.” Davidson apparently had no interest in accepting Grande’s support. “Pete didn’t want to see Ariana,” a source tells People magazine.  “As of Sunday, Ariana had not been able to reach Pete. He is ignoring her.” “Ariana and Pete haven’t really been in contact since the split, but this doesn’t mean that she doesn’t care about him,” the insider explains. “She was frantic after she saw his Instagram message. She feels terrible that he isn’t feeling well.” Prior to her relationship with Davidson, Ariana dated rapper Mac Miller , who died of an overdose at the age of 26 this past September. “Ariana is still traumatized by Mac Miller’s death,” the source says. “She doesn’t want anything to happen to Pete too.” Fortunately, Davidson is receiving plenty of support from his colleagues at SNL. “The decision was taken to give Pete a break on Saturday night – his sketches were dropped before the early evening rehearsals,” a production insider tells Page Six. The show is currently on hiatus from until after the holidays, and Davidson is being encouraged to use that time to seek treatment. Davidson checked into rehab last year while struggling with borderline personality disorder, and SNL creator Lorne Michaels is reportedly imploring him to continue treatment: “Lorne has pledged to help all he can, including sending Pete to get help. “Everyone on the cast is hugely protective of him and were obviously upset — particularly Colin Jost and Michael Che on Weekend Update .” We wish Pete all the best in his continued recovery.

Jill Duggar & Derick Dillard Net Worth: Are They REALLY Broke?!

It's been almost a year since Derick Dillard was fired from Counting On after launching a bigoted social media attack against a fellow TLC star. Shortly thereafter, Jill Duggar quit the show as a gesture of solidarity. That means, of course, that Jill and Derick have two kids to raise and no visible means of support. Derick recently enrolled in law school , and while that may translate to decent earnings somewhere down the line, it still doesn't answer the question of how the Dillards are paying the bills these days. The situation has prompted several and media outlets to do some digging into the Dillards' financial situation — and we think you'll be very surprised by the results of their investigations. Take a look: 1. Jill and the Dill By all appearances, it’s been a rough couple years for Jill and Derick … and yet, the couple doesn’t appear to be struggling financially. 2. What’s Going On Here? So how is it that two young parents are able to live comfortably and assume the additional financial burden of law school tuition with no apparent difficulty? 3. Financial Planning Well, it seems Jill and Derick may have done some serious saving during their time as reality stars. 4. The Big Bucks Cast members on Counting On reportedly earn between $25,000 and $40,000 an episode. 5. Mystery Money It’s unclear where Jill fell on that scale, but since she and Jessa were once considered the stars of the show, it’s safe to assume she was pulling in 40 k. 6. Derick, on the Other Hand As a non-Duggar, however, Derick probably earned in the $25,000 range. View Slideshow

William Hathaway, Wicked Tuna Star, Dies in Fatal Car Crash

William “Willbilly” Hathaway, a cast member on the National Geographic Channel reality show Wicked Tuna, died on Saturday due to injuries he sustained in a car accident. He was 36 years old. According to local news outlets, Hathaway was involved in a crash in Salisbury, Maryland after he swerved off a remote countryside road into a ditch. WBOC16 says that Maryland State Police received a 911 call from a concerned citizen who drove past a Toyota truck on Old Ocean City Road; the station then received numerous similar calls shortly afterwards. The incident took place around 4 p.m. local time. Hathaway, meanwhile, supposedly called his wife after the accident occurred and said he was alright. However, paramedics quickly arrived at the scene and found the reality star “slumped over the center console,” not breathing. The aforementioned news outlet claims he was taken to Peninsula Regional Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. Hathaway was allegedly forced off the road and into the ditch when another vehicle cut him off. His airbags reportedly never deployed. In response to this tragedy, friends and loved ones have started a Facebook fundraiser  to raise money for Hathaway’s wife and their newborn daughter, Molly. A spokesperson for the Ocean CityFishing Community wrote on the page: “He was an exceptional human being whose passion was the sea. He always brightened the day of anyone he met. His wife and new born baby girl he was most proud of.” “Due to his untimely death we are asking for donations to help them stay on their feet while trying to survive this tragedy.” As of this writing, more than $56,500 of the $250,000 fundraising goal had been reached. Hathaway was part of the fishing crew on the Ocean City-based Foolish Pleasures vessel, which was featured on Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks. The series itself debuted in April of 2012. As detailed by Wikipedia, it “takes viewers into the unrelenting North Atlantic waters infamously spotlighted by the novel-turned-feature film The Perfect Storm.” View Slideshow: The Most Shocking Reality Star Deaths: Gone, But Not Forgotten There, the show “[follows] captains who are relied upon by their families, their shipmates, and by Gloucester itself, to haul in boatloads of the large but elusive bluefin.” Tragically, another Wicked Tuna star lost his life earlier this year. Nicholas Fudge died in July after a lengthy battle with substance abuse. He was only 28 years old. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam We send our condolences to the friends, family members and loved ones of William “Willbilly” Hathaway. May he rest in peace.
