Samantha Markle Gets Denied from Kensington Palace, Leaves Mysterious Note for Sister

Samantha Markle put her money where her mouth is on Saturday morning. Or, to be more accurate, Samantha Markle put her wheelchair where her Twitter account has been. What we’re trying to is this: The awful half-sister of Meghan Markle actually tried to see the Duchess of Sussex at Kensington Place over the weekend. According to The Daily Mirror, which has even published photos of Samantha at the gates of this famous residence, Markle’s evil sibling made good on her threat to try and see the Royal Beauty early yesterday. Samantha – who suffers from multiple sclerosis – was pushed by her partner in a wheelchair through an open gate. British news outlets have sincereported that she got into a verbal “stand-off” with an officer guarding a security checkpoint and was turned away. Finally convinced she would not make it through, Samantha handed a guard a white envelope and then left. “Everybody would love to know what’s in that letter,” Samantha tweeted on Sunday. Samantha, of course, is 17 years old than Meghan. They share the same father, but never shared a household growing up. They barely really know each other. Yet this lack of a relationship hasn’t stopped Samantha from publicly disparaging and harassing Meghan, almost since the moment Meghan started dating Prince Harry. On endless irritating, cruel and self-serving occasions, Samantha has fired off Tweets or given interviews in which she accused Meghan of being a phony… a hypocrite… a spoiled brat… and even a dog killer . But whatever. Meghan has almost entirely maintained the high ground and never responded to her half-sister ridiculous rants. One must wonder whether this will change now that Samantha dared to actually get into the Palace. That’s scared territory. “This was a huge move on the part of Meghan’s sister to try to see her face to face and the fact she was turned away speaks volumes,” a source told The Mirror, adding: “This is the closest Meghan has come physically to that side of her family since she married into the royal family but palace staff had clearly been instructed not to allow her access.” Can you blame her?!? Just about a week ago, Samantha actually issued Meghan an apology , saying on air: “There is so much water under the bridge and so much has spun out of control that was never intended to. “I think everybody [in our family] was hurt at not being included or invited to the wedding, but I felt as though it could have all been nipped in the bud had everyone been included. “We all just agreed to move forward with positive resolve and the hurt feelings wouldn’t have snowballed.” In this same sit-down with Great Britain’s Channel 5, Samantha said of her visit overseas: “I’ve always wanted to see London, but really I wanted to make the trip and sort of speak the wishes and thoughts and sentiments of my father, and hopefully get a message to my sister.” It appears as if she has now at least done that. But who the heck knows whether Meghan will bother to read it. She has far better things to do these days than entertain any thoughts at all about someone such as Samantha Markle. Such as what, you may be wondering? Such as GETTING PREGNANT , of course! View Slideshow: Meghan Markle: 19 Cruelest Things Her Own Family Has Said About the Duchess

On Her Erykah Badu Ish: Melania Trump Admits She Tells Donald To Put His Phone Down Just To Keep Him From Tweeting [Video]

Melania Trump Says She Doesn’t Always Agree With Husband Donald’s Wild Tweets Whenever Donald Trump tweets something bizarre and ridiculous , we all wonder what his family thinks about his antics — especially his wife Melania . The FLOTUS spoke out on Saturday about her husband’s outrageous social media meltdowns telling reporters, I don’t always agree with what he tweets, and I tell him that. I give my honest opinion and honest advice. Sometimes he listens and sometimes he doesn’t, but I have my own voice and opinions, and it’s very important to me I express what I feel. According to the Daily Mail , Melania also told reporters she believes SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh , who was accused of sexually assaulting Christine Blasey Ford when the pair were in high school is ‘highly qualified’, and said: ‘I’m glad Dr Ford was heard’. *Deep, Deep Sigh*

Tyler Baltierra: It’s Weird AF to Star Alongside Bristol Palin!

Tyler Baltierra two huge reasons to be very happy and extremely excited these days. FIRST, the long-time reality star has lost 43 pounds of late and he looks amazing . SECOND, he’s having another baby!!!!!!! Tyler and wife Catelynn announced this month that their third child is due in March, an especially blessed development considering they lost one to a miscarriage back in January 2018. But Baltierra said this week on the podcast “Reality Life with Kate Casey” that he unfortunately has one reason NOT to be so happy and excited at the moment. And that reason has everything to do with one of his new Teen Mom OG co-stars. For the first time since the news of her casting broke, Tyler has spoken out on the addition of Bristol Palin to the franchise. “Do I think it’s weird as hell? Absolutely. Do I think it’s a really, like, not a good decision for the franchise? Yeah. But that’s out of my control,”. he said on the recording We definitely understand the first part of that statement. Bristol Palin was the daughter of the nominee for Vice President of the United States in 2008. She was on stage at the Republican National Committee. She made MAJOR national/political headlines for months because she was a pregnant teenager at the time of this election… … and now she’s gonna be on Teen Mom OG Season 8! That is absolutely weird as hell . But is it bad for the franchise? Time, and ratings really, will tell. The stunning casting decision has certainly resulted in an abundance of coverage for the series, as Bristol and Cheyenne Floyd will both come on board the program this fall. They are jointly taking over for Farrah Abraham, whose affiliation with amateur pornography led to her departure from MTV in February. To be clear, meanwhile, Tyler says he has no beef with Bristol on a personal level. Heck, he had never met her before filming began and scarcely knew anything about her. “I don’t know anything about anybody,” he said on the podcast. “It’s weird. When it comes to that kind of stuff, I’m a f-cking recluse.” He was also just 16 years old back when Palin was in the national spotlight. Pver the past two months, though, he’s heard about some of Palin’s controversies, such as her stance against gay marriage and her hot Republican takes in general. “I got headlines sent to me, ‘Oh my gosh, she’s racist, she’s homophobic,’” he says. “I’m like, ‘What? I don’t know!’” He’ll soon find out, however! So will MTV viewers across the globe. The new season of Teen Mom OG kicks off this Monday, October 1. Still, Baltierra says he’s reserving judgment until he gets to know the Alaska native better: “I’m like, I can’t read the tabloids. I gotta just get to know the person on my own. I don’t want to get any preconceived judgments or notions about these people.” Moreover, he doesn’t blame Bristol for coming on board. This is how Tyler concludes his opinion on the unexpected situation: Do I have any hard feelings against the girls, the people participating in it now? Absolutely not. Because I think with the franchise – like, what it turned into –  if the opportunity knocks on anyone’s door, I think everyone would be lying if they said they wouldn’t take the opportunity. Honestly, things evolve, they gotta grow and they gotta adapt to change as we get on with this whole thing that we’ve been doing for 10 years now.

Counting On Recap: Kendra, Joseph Duggar Welcome Baby Garrett!!

Back in June, Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell welcomed the birth of their first child , a precious baby boy named Garrett David. Now, almost four months later, Counting On has aired Kendra’s difficult delivery episode. As difficult as it was for fans to see her in so much discomfort, it was even harder for Joe. It was hardest of all, of course, for Kendra herself. Many Duggar fans were surprised when they learned that Kendra gave birth in a hospital . The Duggar family is big on home births for … complicated cultural reasons. “Kendra would lay down and she would have a contraction,” Joe explained. “So,” he continued. “The only comfortable position for her was standing on her feet.” She was having enough discomfort and difficulty that they went to the hospital. And that was a very smart move. Kendra kept holding her breath instinctively while in pain, but  Kendra’s labor would ultimately last 13 hours. As her contractions grew closer and closer together, her water still had not broken. Fortunately, she was in the hospital, so the doctor was able to help her with that. “Don’t push,” Kendra’s mother coached her as her labor grew more intense. “Just breathe.” Joe was riding an emotional high, but his actual feelings were very conflicted. “It’s exciting because our baby’s almost here,” he admitted. “But also it’s a hard time because I have to see Kendra go through the hardest time of her life.” When little Garrett David was born, however, Joseph was positively over the moon. “He’s here, he’s here!” Joe kept repeating. Kendra chimed in, cooing over her “sweet little guy.” Fans have known about this precious baby for months, but seeing his birth on Counting On gave them a whole new perspective. Part of the appeal of the Duggars is how viewers feel that they’ve been with the family every step of the way, even through births. That can really hook you. That said, a number of viewers can’t help but wonder: what comes next? Obiously, Joe and Kendra are busy being new parents to their baby and Kendra is probably still in the later stages of healing from childbirth. But fans realize that, for most of their marriage, Kendra has been pregnant with their honeymoon baby. What is next for the couple? A lot of married couples have a child early on in their marriage. After they give birth, they focus on parenting but still make time to enjoy their married state. But Joe and Kendra are not most couples — they’re Duggars. Fans figure that it’s only a matter of time before baby #2 is on the way. That said, considering how difficult Kendra’s childbirth was, will she be so eager to try again? And having seen and heard her pain, will Joe be in any hurry to return to a delivery room? Probably not. But they may feel an obligation to, either from family and community pressure or from religious beliefs. And if you spend enough time around a precious baby like Garrett, sometimes the pain of childbirth becomes a distant memory … and all that you can think about is how much you’d like to have another.

Meghan Markle: Officially Being Stalked By Her Sister!

We’ve known for quite some time that Meghan Markle’s family is awful , but remarkably Prince Harry’s nightmare in-laws keep finding new ways to shock and amuse us. Generally, it’s Meghan’s horrendous sister, Samantha Markle, leading the charge. In fact, we can probably safely assume that were it not for Sam’s nefarious influence, Meghan’s father wouldn’t behave quite as repugnantly as he does. But there are rare moments in life — such as when Bill Cosby goes to prison — in which we’re reminded that there is still some good in the world and justice occasionally prevails. And the fact that Samantha’s efforts to destroy her sister have thus far fallen flat is one of those things that gives us a shred of faith in humanity. So far, Samantha has written a tell-all about Meghan that one published; she’s sat for interviews no one watched; she even tried to score an invitation to the royal wedding, to no avail. But you know the old saying — when all else fails, enter full-on stalker mode. Yes, according to a statement from her publicist, Rob Cooper, Samantha is headed to London, where she hopes to hunt Meghan down. “Samantha Markle is coming to the UK,” Cooper’s statement ominously begins. “After making numerous attempts in private to arrange a one on one meeting with The Duchess of Sussex to discuss their 74-year-old father’s health, Kensington Palace have refused to respond.” From there, Cooper basically confirms that Sam subscribes to her father’s batsh-t theory that the Royals are holding Meghan hostage and shielding her from vital information about her family. “I fear Meghan may not be made aware of these discreet attempts and therefore making this public is the only option we have left,” he tweets. “I currently have Samantha in Europe with just one short flight away.  “This DOESN’T need to be public, we would prefer to keep this private. Samantha is coming to the UK this week, like it or not.” You almost have to admire the pettiness of posting multiple tweets on a given topic and then claiming you’d prefer to keep the whole thing private. It’s anyone’s guess how Samantha plans to get in touch with Meghan, but don’t be surprised to see CNN broadcasting live footage of her scaling the palace walls. Those guards might have to do something other than stand perfectly still and amuse tourists this week. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle: 19 Cruelest Things Her Own Family Has Said About the Duchess

Interesting: Julie Chen Announces That She’s Leaving ‘The Talk’ To Clear Husband Les Moonves’ “Good Name”

Image via Photo by Drew Angerer/Getty Images Julie Chen To Leave ‘The Talk’ To Help Les Moonves Clear His Name Stand by your man is a mantra that Julie Chen clearly lives and dies by. According to CNN , Chen will announce today that she is leaving The Talk to focus on clearing the “good name” of her husband Les Moonves. The former CBS CEO has been ousted after allegations of sexual misconduct arose from at least 12 different women. pic.twitter.com/cW1vUhCIs0 — Julie Chen (@JulieChen) July 27, 2018 Moonves believes these allegations are part of some elaborate scheme to bring him down as they are “not consistent” with who he is. It was pretty obvious that Chen could not return to The Talk being that discussions of the #MeToo movement would be regular topics and Julie has been VERY outspoken against men who have been accused of exactly what her husband is accused of.

Cynthia Erivo: Here’s Why Folks Think This Harriet Tubman Actress Is “Anti-Black”, And Can’t Lead The Slaves TO FREEDOM…

(Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) Blacks Want British-Nigerian Cynthia Erivo Tossed From Harriet Tubman Biopic There is a diaspora war happening on twitter that started with Tevin Campbell, and it could possibly end over Harriet Tubman! Recently, it was announced that Tony winning actress Cynthia Erivo ( The Color Purple ) would play an icon in Black American history for the big screen. Harriet Tubman. But, folks are saying Erivo shares vitriol for Blacks who are descendents of slavery, therefore the role should go to someone else. How did Erivo’s critics conclude this? Well, she’s very close with a Nigerian representing twitter user named Luvvie. And Luvvie recently had old tweets resurface that displayed some disdain towards American Blacks. She made fun of Kwanzaa, calling herself an “elitist African” and condemned HBCU’s — like they were trash! All of these things and more came to light because Luvvie decided to tweet negatively about Tevin Campbell and a handful of American Black twitter users got tired of her trashing Blackness. The consensus was “Don’t speak for us, since you hate us.” In return, Luvvie justified her Blackness with a blog, in which Cynthia Erivo unabashedly supported. Do you think this means she’s anti-Black, like her Nigerian sister Luvvie is accused of being? Is this y’alls Harriet?? Embarrassing smh pic.twitter.com/McJgHlK1Ms — Nahum N (@passport_stamps) September 15, 2018 That wasn’t it either. Cynthia retweeted tweets about Black Americans being JEALOUS of Africans in the US. Yeah i learned something new today pic.twitter.com/hnSxHF5JrY — Anastasia Maxine Beaverhausen-Shaw (@CNRush) September 15, 2018   Critics of Cynthia Erivo in the role of Harriet feel like she secretly shares vitriol for Black culture, and hides it. But Cynthia DID defend her role in the upcoming film, saying: “Actors are free to go where they please for their work, but I dare you to do that fully as a Black woman in the U.K. If I see it, I applaud it.” “What was for someone else was never mine in the first place. Please believe that I have turned down roles I know I have no business playing. This role is not one of them….” “If you met me in the street and hadn’t heard me speak, would you know I was British, or would you simply see a Black woman?” That statement doesn’t address whether or not Cynthia respects Blackness, descendents of slaves and African-American Culture. Folks are waiting for some answers. What do YOU think of all of this? Hit the flip to see some of the point folks are making about Cynthia stepping down from this biopic. Are they justified?

He recently admitted he fought his own demons when it came to drugs. In a series of tweets the So So Def Records star revealed he had a serious problem when it came to prescription-strength cough syrup. Apparently Shad was pouring up heavy about 10 years ago and it almost cost him his life. “To the youth- Stop with these dumb ass drugs. Im going to let something out.

It was summer but i was walking round with 3 hoodies on because i was so cold. I missed the chicago show of that tour baltimore show BECAUSE I WAS F***ING HIGH AND SICK!!!! that sh*t is not cool and i was doing it to be cool!” he explained. And to no one’s surprise his infamous in studio rant on BET was fueled by lean. His posts soon turned to an anti-drug PSA for teens. Moss encouraged young people to abstain from drugs and live a clean life. “Kick that sh*t! Be a good son or daughter. Be the best you. Ima start being more vocal. We gotta save the youth from going out early”. Kick that shit! Be a good son or daughter. Be the best you. Ima start being more vocal.
