Well, Max Evans found his family. Or at least a part of his family, or possibly, if we're going by the logic of the classic Mary Kate & Ashley movie It Takes Two, a guy who is...My summer re-watch of Survivor Borneo continues with an episode that includes Rudy connecting with Rich, and B.B. alienating himself from his tribe.
There’s a new episode of Below Deck Mediterranean tonight. The tensions between Hannah Ferrier and Lara Flumiani continues. And while this is apparently Hannah’s last season of Below Deck Mediterranean, this might be the first one where the whole fandom is actually behind her. She has Lara to thank for that. Lara is extremely disrespectful as far as stews go. And she’s not providing much entertainment.
On tonight’s episode, Lara just disappears, somehow, even though they’re all living and working in close quarters on a boat. Just fire her already, Captain Sandy Yawn. Lara’s drama isn’t even enjoyable to watch. She is just so frustrating.
The crew has its first night off, which means they’ll be arguing at a group dinner and then hitting up the club. Pete Hunziker “makes a move” on someone. Rob Westergaard and Jessica More connect on a more in-depth level.
And then the crew gets back to work with charter number two. These guests have some ties to the music industry.
Pete makes some questionable comments about women, which rub his boss Malia White the right way. Captain Sandy has a stern talk with the members of the deck crew.

The new 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way season has just started and already the stand out couple that has captured viewers’ hearts are Armando Rubio and Kenneth Niedermeier. They are the first male same sex couple on the franchise and appear to be very likable and genuine. The couple discuss their excitement of starting their lives together, as Kenneth prepares for his big move to Mexico where Armando lives with his young daughter, Hannah.
Armando admits he has concerns about telling his tight- knit family about his new relationship as well as moving four hours away with his daughter. His family seems to have been a major support system and integral part in his daughter’s life, especially since losing his ex-wife in a car crash, as he explained in the first episode. Armando recently went more in depth, discussing further details of the tragic event.
As with most of the cast of 90 Day Fiance, the internet investigators began digging into the story of Armando’s ex-wife’s death, and newspaper articles of the crash began to circulate. He didn’t share too much on the show, but Armando took to his Instagram to personally explain further details of the event and possibly squash any rumors or conspiracy theories. The fan account 90dayfiancenews shared screenshots from two of Armando’s Instagram Stories
Armando explained that even though they had been separated because of her “anger issues”, they were working to “rebuild a friendship”. He added, “during the divorce proceedings and on the evening of her passing a disagreement took place over fiannces.” Armando recalled, “I thought it would be best to leave the situation and return back to my home.”
He shared, “As I was driving down the highway and I was shocked when I was suddenly struck from behind and then hit again.” It took a minute to process his car was being hit by his ex.
Armando recalled, “before I knew it she lost control of her vehicle and passed away on the scene.”
Though he had discussed his ex wife’s death on the show, the extra bit he hadn’t mentioned was that she had been pregnant at the time, and the baby did not survive the crash. Armando included that “this was a very difficult time for all involved, myself, our family, and friends, and had been a long grieving process” and asks fans for “empathy and understanding on this personal tragedy”.

The Bravo universe has imploded over the last couple of weeks. The network has protected certain Bravolebrities for far too long, and finally higher-ups have taken action, firing a bunch of people who shouldn’t have had access to a huge platform in the first place. Now that Bravo has made some progressive movement, fans are calling for a host of other people to get the boot.
One such person is Real Housewives of Orange County mess star Kelly Dodd. Kelly has a history of saying questionable, even scary things. Her true colors really started to show in Season 11, when she told Heather Dubrow to have a sense of humor because Heather is Jewish. When the women called her out, she rationalized that she’s Mexican, and therefore can’t be racist. Her statements have rarely been based on logic or concrete facts. The problem with this is that she has a powerful following across social media sites – and of course RHOC – to share these “alternative facts.”
Always opinionated, Kelly has been sharing problematic statements about COVID-19. For instance, she’s flatly stated that “people are going to die,” that COVID is God’s way of “thinning the heard, and that “no one is dying of coronavirus in Orange County.” For the record, these things are gross to say and just NOT true. COVID cases are once again on the rise in the OC – because people, like Kelly, are not following proper protocol from the CDC.
Needless to say, her comments have pissed people off. Rumors have been floating around that Kelly has been axed from RHOC. But alas, we can’t get that lucky, those rumors appear to be just rumors. Kelly recently denied these rumors in the comments section of a post by realhousewivesfranchise on Instagram.
In response to a fan comment that asked, “Kelly is it true they fired you from RHOC?” Kelly replied (with typos) “no it’s lies like everything that else that has been said about me.”
It’s not enough for Kelly to say “no” once. So, she also replied to another fan comment that stated, “heard you were fired from hw.” Kelly replied, “from whom? I’m not!”
Kelly is, as always, quite defensive. Maybe her getting fired is just a rumor. But where there’s smoke…there’s Kelly Dodd making false statements!

Marlo Hampton is the queen of stirring the pot on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. But it turns out the perennial Friend of the Housewives can also unite a host of Bravo stars for a good cause.
The outspoken fashionista recently organized a PSA for Black Lives Matter starring the casts of RHOA, Real Housewives of Potomac, and Married to Medicine, and the results are nothing short of powerful.
The somber, grayscale clip opens with a quote from Maya Angelou, overlaid with clips from current Black Lives Matter protests. “History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again,” the quote reads before fading from the screen to reveal Marlo and her two young nephews.
“Until we receive justice, how can there be peace?” the RHOA star asks. “When police brutality and racial injustices continue to plague Black America?”
“Black is love. Black is strength. Black is joy,” one of her nephews says, before the other adds, “Black is courage. Black is struggle. Black is perseverance.” Marlo then goes on to proclaim, “We can no longer be silent. We must educate ourselves and others around us. We have to get uncomfortable now in order to get comfortable for lifetimes to come. My name is Marlo Hampton, and my life matters.”
From there, Bravolebrities from RHOA‘s Eva Marcille and Porsha Williams to RHOP‘s Gizelle Bryant and Candiace Dillard appear, each taking turns echoing Marlo‘s refrain that their lives matter.
Other ‘Wives appearing in the PSA include Kandi Burruss, Monique Samuels, Karen Huger, Robyn Dixon, Ashley Darby, Cynthia Bailey, Nene Leakes, Tanya Sam and Potomac newbie Wendy Osefo. The majority of the Married to Medicine cast also participated. (Marlo’s nemesis Kenya Moore is noticeably absent from the video.)
“We will continue to fight for Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd,” Marlo concludes. “And so many others who have lost their lives. But we have to create a change, you guys. We have to use our voices, our resources and our wallets to make that change.” The clip then ends with Marlo asking fans to donate to a number of nonprofits dedicated to racial justice including Colin Kaepernick’s Know Your Rights Camp, Color of Change, the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund and the ACLU.
Watch the PSA below.

Malia White is back on Below Deck Mediterranean this season and has strictly sworn off getting into another “boatmance” this time around.
In a recent interview, the newly-promoted bosun looked back on her Season 2 fling with Adam Glick. She also offered her take on the chef’s Below Deck Sailing Yacht romance with Jenna MacGillivray.
“Yeah, I’ve caught bits and I’ve heard a lot,” Malia told host Megan Segura on a recent interview with Bravo’s The Daily Dish about whether she watched the sailing-centric spinoff.
However, she firmly revealed she doesn’t keep in contact with her former flame, even if she does have some opinions about his rocky relationship with Jenna. “I dodged a bullet maybe? Or I tried to do so,” she said with a laugh.
Malia went on to dish about how much the concept of the “boatmance” has changed since her first season on Bravo. “I don’t know, I got so much flak for kissing a guy [in Season 2]. Now, people are, like, hooking up all over the boats and stuff. It’s like, come on.”
But seriously though, Jenna and Adam‘s habit of sleeping — and arguing — in the master cabin between charters? Not to mention their constant PDA in the galley? Talk about seriously crossing the line of professionalism on…literally every level. Double standard, much?
“There’s a couple sides to Adam, I guess. And I think we’re seeing them now,” the Below Deck Med bosun also told The Daily Dish. “I think the master cabin rendezvous are pretty funny. But other than that, I think there’s a good side on him somewhere.”
In another relationship update, Malia revealed “yachting got in the way” of her romance with Sirocco bosun Wesley Walton. “It lasted quite a while,” she said of the relationship. “And then we both got on two boats going opposite sides of the world. I was headed to the South Pacific and he was headed to the Arctic.” Despite the break-up, Malia did assure fans that the pair are “still friends and we keep in touch.”
And while she may not keep in touch with Adam, Malia kept it classy when asked about her feelings for the prickly chef nowadays. “I wish him well…” she said. “I have no hard feelings towards Adam. I think there’s definitely a good guy in there somewhere. We just don’t keep in touch.”

Do you wonder if the messy boots worn by cast members on Vanderpump Rules is less about the individual and more about who is protecting the individual? Exhibit A: former Pump Rules star, Stassi Schroeder. Stassi has been called out in the past for making racially insensitive comments. She was given a pass for “ignorance” but when things kept popping up, she got checked. Bravo couldn’t save face and save the cast, so they cut ties with Stassi and Kristen Doute for their part in filing a false police report against Faith Stowers. In the same podcast where Stassi and Kristen laughed about calling the cops on Faith, Stassi shared another little tidbit.
During Faith’s tenure on the show, it seemed her only friend was Lala Kent. Faith and Lala paraded around Lisa Vanderpump’s pool. Faith and Lala shared topless moments on a vacation to Hawaii. And according to Stassi, Lala pulled a knife on Faith. What’s more, this ALLEGEDLY occurred when cameras were filming. The incident never aired, but it might explain why Lala hopped on the apology bus. The question is, does it shine a light on Bravo’s proclivity to protect certain “stars”?
So we know Jax Taylor is a thief and a cheater. These are not “feelings”, these are facts. We know Kristen isn’t always capable of rational thought, after some of her documented disturbing antics. And we know the bullying tactics used by Stassi, Katie Maloney, and Kristen have been major plotlines for this show. Yep, they are all getting paid very well to act like assholes. Lala entered the seen and was hated by everyone. The same girls she calls friends now were calling her a whore and basically alluding to the fact that she was a hooker two years ago. Man, private jets change everything, don’t they?
Before Lala became the spokesperson for BJs for PJs, LLC, the only person that gave her the time of day was Faith. When Jax lied to Lala’s face in Hawaii about hitting on her, there was Faith. When Brittany Cartwright dismissed Lala as a try-hard who wouldn’t leave her man alone, there was Faith. Now we are finding out that Faith and Lala might have had a violent moment.
The now-deleted podcast where Stassi gleefully spoke about trying to have Faith arrested, she casually dropped another nugget of info. In between making fun of Faith’s hair, and social media posts, someone also referred to Faith as, “Jubilee”. I’ll leave this right here: “The Jubilee (Hebrew: יובל yovel) year (every 50th year) and the Sabbatical year (every seventh year) are Biblical commandments concerning ownership of land and slaves.”
Stassi also shared, “OH, Lala pulled a knife out on [Faith], on camera this season except they didn’t air that.” I’m not sure how many brain cells I lost listening to this clip, but let’s keep funding education in schools…
Look, would anyone be surprised if this happened? Lauryn from Utah and her tendency to liken herself to Tupac Shakur when honestly Dorit Kemsley has more street cred than she does. But Lala tries with that gangster image and I guess it keeps her sugar daddy fiancé on his toes. EVERYONE knows that only real OGs drink out of a baby bottle. The thing is, for Bravo not to air it was a bit odd. The general consensus is Bravo wanted Lala to have a better edit over Faith, go figure.
Does this incident have anything to do with Lala’s apology to Faith? Did Lala make that move because she thought her job was in jeopardy? Or maybe Lala got a clue that REACHING OUT AND APOLOGIZING to someone you’ve wronged does a lot more good than blanket statements on Instagram. Faith has forgiven her and all is well, until the next story comes out.

The domino effect has been in full force for the cast members of Vanderpump Rules. Two OG’s from the show, Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute, were recently let go for calling the cops on former cast member Faith Stowers and accusing her of theft back in 2018. Then, newbies Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni were let go from the show for racist comments they made on social media.
Fans have been calling for Jax Taylor to get the boot next for several reasons. Last season, Jax consistently made snide remarks about Ariana Madix’s sexuality. He and Brittany Cartwright also played dumb to knowing about their wedding pastor’s alleged homophobic views. Jax also accused Faith of grand theft auto and said she was wanted by the police. Bravo might not have kicked him to the curb yet, but it looks like another company might have.
The Blast reported that the Instagram account @canceljaxtaylor shared the alleged bombshell that “DIFF Eyewear told a fan they have suspended their partnership with Jax and Brittany.” Does anyone else find it hilarious that an eyewear company wanted to partner with Jax in the first place? The man literally went to jail for stealing a pair sunglasses!
Apparently, Jax and Brittany have been working with DIFF Eyewear “over the past couple of years.” They also have been promoting their products over social media. And Brittany worked with them directly on a “charitable designer line.” I have no doubt the color pallet of her sunglass frames only included bright orange, inspired by her alma mater, Hooters.
The fan also reached out to the company directly to confirm if they really had “cut ties” with Jax and Brittany. A rep reportedly responded via Instagram. They wrote, “Hi! Thank you so much for reaching out. Feedback like this is what keeps us learning and growing as a brand. We are investigating the situation and have suspended our partnership.”
The statement continued, “As we move forward, we will continue to strive for a more diverse community of partners that uphold the mission of making a positive difference in this world. Again, thank you for reaching out. Please feel free to continue to voice your concerns with us. Love, DIFF.”
I know the cast likes to spin the narrative that Brittany is like Mary Poppins and is practically perfect in every way, but this is what you get when you hitch your wagon to a guy like Jax. Jax is going to get what he has coming to him and Brittany will be going along for the ride. I guess they should consider themselves lucky they still have their spots on Pump Rules. At least for now.
TELL US – DO YOU THINK JAX AND BRITTANY WILL LOSE THEIR PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER BRANDS? DO YOU THINK THEY WILL BE THE NEXT CAST MEMBERS TO BE LET GO ON VPR?
