Kaley Cuoco Hospitalized for Shoulder Surgery on Her Honeymoon

On Saturday, June 30, Kaley Cuoco married Karl Cook ! It’s wonderful news! After the wedding comes the honeymoon. Not all marriages begin like a fairy tale. Unfortunately, Kaley ended up spending hers in the hospital while undergoing shoulder surgery. Kaley Cuoco shared a couple of images of her less-than-blissful honeymoon. “When your ‘honeymoon’ is shoulder surgery,” Kaley says in the captions. “And your husband looks just as happy lol.” He was clearly a very good sport about the whole thing. As, of course, we would hope that any spouse would. Kaley then announces that she is “on the road to recovery.” That is great news. The sooner that she makes a full recovery, the sooner that she can get back to enjoy her married life! (This is a photo that Karl shared, showing how little enthusiasm she had for a spoiled honeymoon) Kaley offers a shout-out to her fans. “Thank you for all the love and support,” Kaley writes, followed by a red heart emoji. “Knowing @mrtankcook,” she says. “I’m sure he will be posting tons of hilarious gems.” Gems like the photo of her very grumpy face. “Thank god,” Kaley says. “My hair color is on point” Though we’re glad to hear that Kaley is recovering, that sounds like some truly miserable timing, right? Kaley took to her Instagram stories to explain that the surgery wasn’t an emergency situation. “For everyone asking,” Kaley explained. “Because everyone’s been so sweet and worried about me, this is a planned surgery.” She reveals that this surgical appointment is one that “I’ve had for over a year.” “I hurt it over a year ago,” Kaley reveals, adding that she “did not need immediate surgery” at the time. “So,” Kaley explains. “I brilliantly planned it five days after our wedding. Right, babe?” That is … not ideal timing. At the same time, however, it’s certainly better than undergoing surgery prior to your wedding. You don’t want your arm in a sling when you walk down the aisle. Sometimes, people recovering from surgery are on medications that do not mix with alcohol. You certainly don’t want that. And since it’s been scheduled for a year, it’s not like she got injured on their honeymoon and had to cancel perfectly laid plans. Back in the olden days, honeymoons were high-pressure situations in which a newly married couple was at least assumed to be having sex for the first time and, for the first time, getting to know one another in a domestic setting. Now, unless you’re part of a Duggar-like fertility cult or simply choose to wait, most couples are comfortable with each other sexually. And, quite frankly, most have lived with each other well before tying the knot. The honeymoon is now more of a very special vacation for couples and less of a high stakes opportunity to find out whether or not two near-strangers have made a catastrophic mistake. In that sense, Kaley’s timing is actually pretty great. Sure, she’s recovering from surgery — but now she has her husband to look after her. That is so sweet.

90 Day Fiance Star David Toborowsky: My Son Was Shot in the Face

90 Day Fiance star David Toborowsky married Annie, even though she’s twice his age and his … well, he didn’t exactly win over a lot of viewers. But while David is dismissed as a “deadbeat” by his daughter , it looks like he has a better relationship with his son, Jacob, who is 18 years old. Jacob Toborowsky is currently recovering from a gunshot wound to the face, and David is thanking fans for their prayers as his son struggles with recovery and complications. Guns are scary, folks. David took to Facebook a few weeks ago to share the unfortunate news with his followers: “On behalf of my family we wanted to thank each and everyone of you for the thoughts and prayers that have been sent and said for Jacob Toborowsky.” Jacob is, of course, his son. He spelled out his name so awkwardly so that he could tag him in it. The shooting, which is said to have been accidental but is nonetheless serious, took place on January 28th. “He was shot in the face by a so called friend in a senseless stupid act. We will continue to monitor the situation on a legal front to ensure that justice prevails.” We have an update on that, as well. His son is alive, but undergoing medical treatment. Because he was shot. In the face. “Jacob went to Texas today to continue his recovery and possible surgeries. I will update as I can.” He thanks everyone for their support, prayers, and well wishes. “Again, we thank you from the bottom of our heart for the prayers and ask for continued prayers as he has a long road ahead of him.” And, of course, there are updates. “I wanted to give an update on my son Jacob,” David writes in a separate post. “He had surgery yesterday down in Houston. The damage to the muscles in his face are more severe than 1st thought.” Complications can be absolutely brutal. “The main part of the bullet was removed.” This was not a Dick Cheney situation — the gunshot came from a handgun. “Please keep him in your prayers as the road he has is going to be long and hard. Thank you all again for the prayers, messages and thoughts.” And, in case anyone was worried about the photos of Jacob that David posted, David went ahead and posted a disclaimer. “I am posting these pics with his permission.” Jacob’s mother, David’s ex, has also spoken up: “He has to have surgery tomorrow to have a drain put in.” A very necessary drain. “He is accumulating fluid in the wound from the gland that was impacted from the bullet.” And until the fluid build-up can be addressed, Jacob won’t be able to recover. “His wound cannot heal with all the drainage.” But his recovery will take more than healing some tissue, unfortunately. “Then OT and speech therapy will begin as well. He will have to put bite blocks in his mouth to start trying to get it open.” OT means occupational therapy. There’s much more to recovery than waiting for the swelling to go down, folks. “I think I am still in shock from all of this.” Speaking to RadarOnline , David Toborowsky gives further details on Jacob’s condition . “Jacob had his surgery on Thursday to remove the bullet.” That, of course, is only a small piece of the surgical puzzle. “A significant amount of tissue was damaged. He will never be able to fully open his mouth all the way.” Heartbreaking. “A lot of scar tissue had to be cleaned to remove the bullet. There is a lot of deep-tissue scarring.” He shares what his ex had also revealed. “He’s going back into surgery on Tuesday. They need to put a drain in for the gland to heal. He was in a lot of pain this weekend. It’s worse than we thought.” David has also shared what’s happening in Kentucky, on the legal end of things. “The Commonwealth of Kentucky charged the other kid with 1st degree assault and will go before the grand jury next month.” Accidental or not, a teenager should know better than to, you know, shoot their friend in the face. It’s easy — the vast majority of people spend their entire teen years not shooting people.  Real actions should have real consequences, right? Jacob is certainly facing consequences for the gunshot. And Jacob will have to live with the aftermath for the rest of his life. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Couples: Who’s Still Together?

Khloe Kardashian & Lamar Odom Make Nice Over Rasual Butler Death

Recently, things between Khloe Kardashian and her ex, Lamar Odom, haven’t exactly been ideal. To the point where Lamar threw shade at Khloe that was so unkind that he got slammed by Kim . But then, an unthinkable tragedy struck them both. Sometimes, shared grief brings people together to make peace. It’s important to remember what really matters. Not everyone gets along with their exes. For Khloe and Lamar, things are … more complicated. Though their divorce was already well underway, when Lamar had his health crisis a few years ago, Khloe dropped everything to be by his side. That included stalling their divorce process so that Khloe could continue to make decisions for Lamar until he was able to speak for himself. (Most wives wouldn’t exactly slow down a divorce after their husband visits a brothel, but these were … special circumstances) Fastforward to 2018, however, and though Lamar himself made a profound recovery, his relationship with Khloe has soured significantly. As we all know, Khloe Kardashian is pregnant with Tristan Thompson’s baby. Lamar was asked about it, and though he started off politely enough, he decided to make what sounded like an underhanded jab at his ex. “I’m happy for her,” he said at the time. “She took good care of me. She’ll be a good mother, for real. She’s a great woman.” However, after acknowledging that he still has Khloe’s initials tattooed on his body (from when they got married), he goes out of his way to clarify that he’s not pining after her. He just hasn’t gotten around to getting the tattoo removed. “I understand when it’s over, it’s over. When she was with her second or third NBA ball player, I could see that.” Naturally, that bit of unpleasantness was what got Kim Kardashian to threaten to ruin Lamar Odom if he comes after Khloe again. On Wednesday morning, Rasual Butler and his wife, Leah LaBelle, died in a one-car wreck in Studio City. Rasual was a former NBA player. Leah was a contestant on American Idol in 2004. It appears that the car, a Range Rover, somehow spun out of control, resulting in the deadly crash. Many friends of the pair are in mourning over this devastating loss. RadarOnline reports that they have learned that Khloe and Lamar buried the hatchet while both mourning the loss of their friend. Rasual had actually appeared on Khloe & Lamar back in the day, when he was dating Malika Haqq. A source close to Lamar reported that: “Lamar is crushed about Rasual’s death, and it was shocking for Khloe, too.” And the tragic situation caused the exes to contact each other. “Khloe and Lamar talked after they heard about Rasual’s death. ” And the source sheds a little insight over how the two of them are feeling. “She told him that she was so sad about the accident. And he is numb.” Different people respond to sudden horrible news in different ways. Let’s be clear — this story in no way suggests that Khloe and Lamar are rekindling romantic feelings for each other. But it’s good and healthy for exes like these two to be able to communicate in an honest way. This sadness strikes at them both. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Pregnant: What Do We Know?

Javi Marroquin: I Ditched Briana DeJesus After Her Surgery!

It’s looking like Miami will continue to be the center of Teen Mom 2 drama next week! Here’s a brief recap of everything that’s been going on in the Sunshine State, in case you haven’t been keeping up: First, Briana DeJesus and Kailyn Lowry both flew to Miami for plastic surgery sessions with the appropriately-named Dr. Miami. Kailyn canceled her procedure after experiencing a last-minute change of heart. Briana did go under the knife, and Dr. Miami shared her before and after photos on his social media pages today. (That may seem a bit sleazy, but you have to understand that plastic surgeons are basically the Charlie Sheens of the medical community.) Anyway, despite the fact that the past two days saw more surgical drama than an entire season of Grey’s Anatomy , the big story out of Miami this week is the news that Briana and Javi Marroquin are already back together after breaking up last month. Or at least they were … Javi joined Briana in Florida so he could be by her side in the hours leading up to her procedure. Fans assumed he would stick with her during her recovery, but just hours after her procedure, Javi was on Snapchat announcing that he was looking to go out and party in Miami. When fans accused him of ditching Briana, Javi offered no explanation or apology. Just the day before he was making appearances on her Snapchat, and all appeared to be well. So what went wrong in the interim? Well, there’s been no official word, but we’re guessing the surprise appearance by Briana’s baby daddy, Devoin Austin, didn’t sit well with Javi. Yes, it seems Devoin showed up, and a rightfully pissed-off Javi immediately took off. “I should’ve never went,” Javi told Radar Online about the incident. “I should’ve went to LA like I was supposed to. We broke up for a reason and yesterday reassured me of that.” To make matters worse, it seems Javi’s ex-wife has been keeping close tabs on the situation and loving every second of it. All week, Kailyn has been teasing fans with the prospect of a big revelation involving Javi. Many assumed that the Devoin situation was the tea that she planned to spill, but a tweet she posted moments ago suggests there’s more big Javi news in the offing: “Everyone’s asking where the tea is at but Javi’s been through enough so I’m not gona put him through more shit,” Lowry wrote. Sounds like Javi is having one hell of a rough week. He might actually need more recovery time than Briana. Watch Teen Mom 2 online to relive the many ups and downs in the life of Mr. Marroquin.

Mariah Carey Reportedly Had Weight-Loss Surgery After Body Criticism

Here is the original post:

Celebrities are victims of body-shaming and harsh critiques just like the normal, average citizen, which can bring out insecurities and self-consciousness in even the strongest individuals. Allegedly Mariah Carey was so upset regarding the criticism about her weight, that she recently underwent weight-loss surgery. EXCLUSIVE: Body shamers spur Mariah Carey to have weight-loss surgery https://t.co/UGrSx1ZvXw pic.twitter.com/7Rv5pfXGWw — Page Six (@PageSix) November 7, 2017 It’s being reported by Page Six that superstar Mariah Carey had gastric sleeve surgery back in October after being unable to handle the harsh opinions, critiques and body-shaming she received due to her supposed weight gain. The procedure was reportedly performed in Beverly Hills by one of the country’s top surgeons. A source close to Carey, told Page Six that “Mariah has always been proud of her curves, but this summer, as her Caesars Palace residency came to a close, and then she went on tour with Lionel Richie, she noticed it became harder to dance, and she was getting a lot more criticism online from body shamers.” The report goes into further detail about what initially caused Carey’s weight gain, citing increased late-night eating and cocktails after shows with current boyfriend and back-up dancer Bryan Tanaka. Things are apparently looking up after the surgery, as the source says “Mariah underwent the procedure about a month ago, and she is already seeing some good results, and she feels a lot better.” Meanwhile, just last week Carey officially parted ways with her controversial manager Stella Bulochnikov after almost three years of working together. Currently boyfriend Bryan Tanaka has taken over the day-to-day responsibilities of being Carey’s manager.   Check out today’s Top Stories here: DMX Lands Reality Show ‘In The Dog House’ Trina Braxton: We’re Spending Lots Of Time With Tamar After Split

Lesley Murphy: Bachelor Alum Shares Topless Photo Days After Mastectomy

We know Lesley Murphy best as a contestant on season 17 of The Bachelor — she fought for Sean Lowe’s heart , and she came in fifth place. Or at least, that was how we knew her. These days, she’s doing work that’s a little more important than reality show love. Last month, Lesley revealed that she carried a gene that put her at high risk for breast cancer and ovarian cancer and, as a preventative measure, she’d be getting a double mastectomy . She explained that her mother battled breast cancer, and so she felt it was best to “take care of it right now” with the surgery. And so last week, she had both of her breasts removed. She’s been documenting her recovery on her Instagram page, and it’s really just amazing to see. The first day after her surgery, she wrote that the whole thing was “hard to wrap my head around,” and after seeing her chest, she described it as “It looks like I was in a bear fight and lost. Badly.” But, she added, “The human body is truly amazing, though, and I will heal soon enough.” The second day after her surgery, she was able to go home, but with a little apron that held four tubes attached to her chest to drain fluids. Poor Lesley wrote that “Walking and breathing still doesn’t come easy,” but she looks pretty tough to us. And then on Sunday, she shared another update — along with a topless photo of herself, taken just five days after her mastectomy. “My Sunday best,” she captioned the picture, “or what I could manage to put on today with limited arm movements.” “My mom washed and dried my hair today. She dresses me in the mornings. She also measures my drains twice daily which are the tubes you see coming out of my lovely red apron I never take off,” she continued. “She’s the freaking best. She slept in my hospital room and bed at home for the first few nights, helping me in and out of bed and giving me meds at horrid hours to control the pain.” “I have to sleep on my back in the exact same position every night,” she described. “Sometimes when I make the wrong movements it feels like my chest is detaching from my body, but all in all, I think my upper half is healing nicely!” “Sure, it’s sunken in and lumpy because what you see are deflated expanders that were put in which will gradually get filled every 2-3 weeks as I get ready for reconstructive surgery.” “Hopefully by then the permanent marker will be off my body.” Lesley wrote that she feels “lucky” because “my surgeons only made one vertical incision on the lower half of both breasts will saving skin and nipple.” “So while all breast tissue is (hopefully) gone,” she concluded, “I retained some of the old me! Happy Sunday. God is good.” In her latest update, which she wrote yesterday, she wrote that she had two of her four tubes removed, and the other two would be removed next week. “As always,” she added, “I love you guys. I read every heartfelt comment and truly feel the love of this incredible support system.” “Together we are creating so much awareness for early detection, screenings, gene mutations and how to work with the options we have. Thank you, thank you, thank you.” And thank you, Lesley! Because seriously, what an inspiration. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Beat Cancer

Sugar Bear’s Wife Trashes June Shannon: You Lost Him Because You Were a Bitch!

June Shannon has a dramatic new body and it’s become the focal point of her WeTV series, Mama June: From Not To Hot.  We aren’t the only ones reeling from the shocking transformation of the reality TV star. Her family is as shocked as anyone. Last night’s episode of the reality show was all about Sugar Bear’s wedding to Jennifer Lamb , which June was invited to initially. Until Jennifer decided at the last second to dis-invite her.  Perhaps she was worried that June would upstage her at the wedding, by virtue of being June, 300 pounds lighter or not. The weight loss probably played some role, though. There’s little doubt that Lamb sees June’s transformation as a revenge body of sorts and worries about Sugar Bear’s reaction to Shannon . In any case, cameras were rolling when Shannon learned she was to longer invited to see the Bear tie the knot with his Honey Pot. When June revealed that her date was no longer attending the nuptials with her, it was Honey Boo Boo herself who broke the news. “Well, about that, Jennifer disinvited you,” Alana Thompson revealed, at which point June questioned when the conversation happened.  Turns out, it was quite some time before her surgery, so it wasn’t all about the 300 pound shedding, but June was not ready to give up.  “Does [Jennifer] really think that I’m going to allow Alana to come to her house without me? Negative!” Shannon barked at the camera.  Later, Alana tried to turn the tables on Jennifer to get June back on the invite list. Sugar Bear had no idea that Jennifer uninvited her. Alana then ramped up the drama when she dropped the bombshell that she wouldn’t be going to the event if her mom was not invited.  “I hope that Mama Sugar Bear and Jen get along one day, even though it’s practically impossible,” Alana said to the camera. Somewhat surprisingly, Suge took Alana’s side and told Jen what’s up. “If Alana can’t be here, there’s [no] wedding,” the ursine redneck said. “I’m putting my foot down. You’re going to have to re-invite June.” Jennifer reluctantly agreed, but was adamant June would not step foot in the house. Sugar Bear was willing to compromise on that. Of course, when the wedding arrived, June was indeed invited into the house, and Jennifer got ready for war, calling her enemy out.  “You’ve always been a bitch. You’ve always been rude,” Lamb told Shannon, adding the ultimate zinger for any replacement wife: “That’s why you don’t have him anymore.” June’s reply? “I don’t want him.” Burn. That left Lamb stunned as June immediately walked away, not allowing Lamb the satisfaction of saying she tried to ruin the wedding. Somehow we’re guessing we haven’t witnessed the last televised confrontation between the Dueling Women of Sugar Bear.

You Won’t Believe The Extreme Lip Surgery That Has Everyone Talking

After years of big lips being on trend, thanks to the Kardashian women (and women of color who are naturally blessed with plump pouters), it’s hard to believe that there are people who actually pay for lip reductions.

Chloe Lattanzi: Olivia Newton-John’s Daughter Reveals "Disastrous" Boob Job

Chloe Lattanzi is the daughter of beloved actress and former pop star Olivia Newton-John. The 31-year-old model and aspiring singer is making tabloid headlines today thanks to her eye-opening comments about the horrors of plastic surgery gone awry on Tuesday's episode of The Doctors. Lattanzi revealed that she underwent her first cosmetic procedure when she was just 18 – and has regretted it ever since. “All those things were a disaster,” Lattanzi said when asked about the multiple breast implants she received in her teens and early twenties. “Not only did the lip implants look ridiculous, the first boob op I had in Australia when I was 18, left me looking mutilated.” Thirteen years and more than half a million dollars in cosmetic surgery later, Lattanzi says she's finally happy with her appearance. “Now I’m a 32DD and I love my body and love showing my new boobs off,” she said today. “Mom supported my surgery decisions because she knew how unhappy I was before.” Sadly, plastic surgery disasters are not unusual in Hollywood, but they usually become closely-guarded secrets. It's a rare to see a public figure such as Lattanza open up about such nightmarish experiences, and hopefully her candidness will help young people avoid similar misfortunes. These days, Lattanza says she's happier and healthier than ever. She's soon to release an album; she's engaged; and she recently moved to Oregon to open a marijuana dispensary with her fiance. Check out Lattanza's full interview below:
