Ready to relive your childhood crush? Since we have Disney+ to satisfy our every Disney Channel-related whim, we thought it was a good time to look back at some of those hunks (who may...Vanderpump Rules might be boring to a lot of people this season but at least the off-screen drama is firing up! James Kennedy and Raquel Leviss have called it quits since filming an elaborate proposal and Lala Kent has been making the rounds, talking about her split from Randall Emmett. She recently said Rand was “the worst things to ever happen” to her, that he gave her a fake engagement ring, and that she was enjoying her vibrator more than she enjoyed being in the bedroom with him the last five years.
Needless to say, Lala’s not holding anything back. But then again, does she ever? I can’t blame her though. Rand really did her dirty in their relationship and it seems like he lied about his finances in addition to the affairs. Considering the fact that Lala kept her relationship pretty off-limits on Pump Rules, I’m all for her coming out swinging in the press now.
Lala recently spoke with People about where she’s at post-split, saying, “there’s like a laundry list,” of “red flags” she sees now that she’s left Randall. Some of these red flags include: “A dude not letting you look at his phone,” and “someone who is never really home.” Yes, these are red flags. Where are you going and what are you hiding?
Lala continued, saying that Rand “so was not present in any moment, whether it was with me or his children. It was like he was physically there, but he was not mentally there.” This is honestly sad to hear. He has several children he should be present for, but I guess this all makes sense considering the lies he was trying to keep straight in his head.
Lala also shared that for Rand, “the phone was a major, major addiction. I always wonder what could he constantly be doing on that phone?” Now however, she sees “it all.” Lala said that she “should have opened my eyes and said, ‘This is not normal behavior.’ This is called a red flag. Him being gone so much, this is a red flag.” Yes, these are definite red flags. However, when someone’s telling you something else and you really want to believe the good in that person, it’s easy to dismiss such tell-tale signs.
It’s also easy to dismiss these things when you’re young. Lala admits, “I met [Rand] at a very young age. It was a huge whirlwind. My independence was somewhat taken.” It’s because of this that Lala says she feels “like a weight lifted off me. The moment I left that house and he discovered that I had left, I felt so free.”
Finally, she added, “I feel like I have to preach to all women, get your own funds for a rainy day. If you need to make a quick exit, that you’re able to do that.” Good thing Lala had been planning to make it with or without a man for a long time.

Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager are ready for 2022! The Today show co-hosts declared as much during E! News' Daily Pop as they dished on NBC's upcoming New Year's Eve special,...
The night is long and full of errors. Listen, making TV is hard! Long hours, tight schedules, sometimes less than ideal filming conditions...it's a lot to handle, which is why...Larsa Pippen is already a standout on Real Housewives of Miami. While the show isn’t new to her, she’s back and A LOT has changed. She’s obviously still a mom of four, but her kids are so much older now. And now that she’s divorced from ex-husband, Scottie Pippen, she has more time to focus on her own businesses. And does she ever. Despite being filthy rich from her divorce settlement, she’s killing it on OnlyFans. She told us that she makes $10K a day on the site. This shocked her fellow housewives, but they also seemed intrigued. How could you not be?
Although not everyone is warming up to Larsa this season. RHOM OG but now “friend of” Adriana de Moura recently called her “opportunistic.” She also added, “[Larsa] came back, and I was trying to be open and supportive and welcome her back to the group and welcome her back to Miami. I was doing my best, but eventually, her attitude starts to get to me and rub me the wrong way. I want to be embracing of her, but I can’t stand for certain attitudes and disrespect and certain things that don’t sit well with me.”
But housewife Alexia Echevarria is excited about Larsa’s return. The two starred in season one together. Alexia recently told Entertainment Tonight, “I always believe if Larsa would have spent more time in Miami, she needed to be with us.” Larsa left after that season to be in Chicago, where her family was based. Larsa also spent plenty of time in Los Angeles, where she became well-known as Kim Kardashian’s friend.
Alexia continued about Larsa, “She’s always been so relevant throughout the years. We go through different stages as a woman, as a wife, as a mother. I feel like you’ll see another side to her, because the media portrays her only one side, [and] sometimes the media could be very one-sided, even with myself.” Alexia added, “You’re going to see a different Alexia and it’s really not different. It’s just a different time in my life.”
Alexia is right about that. She’s carrying the show so far and it has nothing to do with her wedding storyline. Throw in Larsa and her drama with Adriana and we have one hot season.

And Just Like That...we're all rooting for a Carrie-Samantha reunion. During the Dec. 30 episode of HBO Max's Sex and the City reboot, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Samantha...
Married at First Sight fans are one step closer to getting answers about one public divorce. More than five months after Ryan Oubre and Clara Berghaus announced their breakup, both...Former Real Housewives of New York star Bethenny Frankel likes to keep everyone guessing. After surviving the divorce from hell, Bethenny no longer has to pay child support to her ex-husband, Jason Hoppy, for their daughter, Brynn Hoppy.
Bethenny is engaged to Paul Bernon, but she hinted that she might be single with a holiday Instagram post. The RHONY alum’s sweater read, “All My Jingle Ladies” and she wasn’t sporting her engagement rock. Bethenny confirmed that she was still engaged after her fans went wild and demanded to know if she was, once again, single.
In August of 2021, Bethenny shared that she wasn’t going to return to the franchise. But in December of 2021, Bethenny hinted on her podcast, Just B with Bethenny Frankel, that she would consider joining the RHONY cast again. “If could there be some element of authenticity that I could cling onto. And not feel like I’m gonna go shoot for four months and make a f**kton of money,” she stated.
Bethenny dissed the gossipy Housewives book, Not All Diamonds and Rosé: The Inside Story of The Real Housewives from the People Who Lived It by Dave Quinn. Bethenny slammed the tell-all, tweeting “I think we need more stories about women trashing women. Or… we can publish a book about it? Is that a good idea? #2021 PS. I’ve had my regrettable moments but capitalizing on our weaknesses?” She added, “That’s ‘rich’. Literally #WomenSupportingWomen lol.” Bethenny is no stranger to bashing other women. Just saying.
Bethenny also pondered just how much money was going into Andy Cohen’s pocket from the book. “No clue. I vaguely remember being approached about it & taking a hard left… but I don’t know. It just keeps coming up,” Bethenny tweeted. “Yay for them but every day from me to Carole [Radziwill] to Kelly [Bensimon] to Teresa [Giudice] to Danielle [Staub] to Heather [Thomson] to Sonja [Morgan] etc. Nobody gets out without paying the bill…”
So, you can imagine how thrilled Bethenny was when her nemesis Carole claimed in the book that Bethenny allegedly set up the photo of Luann de Lesseps’ then-fiancé, Tom D’Agostino, kissing another woman. Carole said of Bethenny, “She certainly didn’t just happen to have a friend at the Regency at ten o’clock on a Tuesday night when Tom just happened to be there kissing some chick he used to bang.” Ramona Singer backed up Carole’s claim.
Bethenny revealed to Luann that Tom cheated while RHONY cameras were rolling. Luann went through with the wedding, but the couple decided to divorce just seven months later. Duh.
Of course, Bethenny hit back at the claims that she orchestrated the photo of Tom cheating. Bethenny explained on her podcast that a friend of hers from the Hamptons reached out to her and said that Tom was at the Regency. “It was the night before [Tom D’Agostino] and [Luann de Lesseps’] engagement party in Florida. [My friend] said, ‘Tom’s here with a woman,’ and she took a picture and sent it to me,’” Bethenny remarked.
“How could I set up a photo? Am I in a movie I’m casting?” the Skinnygirl mogul stated. “Like, ‘Hey Tom D’Agostino, I’d like to cast you in the role as cheater at the Regency Hotel’?” Bethenny also shaded Carole and Ramona’s credibility.
She commented, “That’s what really happened in the land of non lala psycho delusional PCP acid trip delusions.”
According to Reality Blurb!, author Dave Quinn shared his thoughts on Bethenny’s “women trashing women” comment on Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge’s podcast, Two T’s in a Pod. “I’m like, ‘Didn’t you build your whole career on [RHONY] putting women down?’” Tamra commented about Bethenny’s tweet. Wow. I actually agree with Tamra on this one.
“I certainly think a lot of people feel the same way that you do about that,” Dave responded. “I think Bethenny certainly had a view towards this that she’s trying to move on from that… My questions weren’t about putting people down,” he stated. “There were plenty of people who chose not to put anybody down.”

Lala Kent continues to press forward after her messy breakup with ex-fiance, Randall Emmett. And don’t think the Vanderpump Rules star is going to give him any passes during this time. She recently said she “got many DM’s about how much a lot of you related to this episode of The Give Them Lala Podcast. Try to remember this – I have to remind myself often, as well. When somebody suffers from self loathing, they will grasp for anyone to make them forget how much they hate themselves.” She’s also alluded to him being a narcissist.
Regardless of how she feels about Randall, Lala is bound to him forever. The two share a daughter, Ocean Emmett. Or Ocean Kent, depending on who you ask. So she has no choice but to co-parent. As reported by Page Six, Lala revealed that Ocean was able to see Randall “for a little bit” for the Christmas holiday. Lala admitted of their parenting arrangement, “Nothing is set in stone. [Ocean] sees him every so often, which is great, and I have her the majority of the time. But, you know, he and I don’t communicate much. We we send very short messages through an app about Ocean and then we call it a day.”
She continued, “I am only interested in talking about Ocean and things that concern her. Other than that, you know, I’ve really just moved on with my life, which has felt really great.” And that included Ocean’s first Christmas, which Lala described as “amazing.” Said Lala, “Ocean was obsessed with all of her little toys that she got. She was more obsessed with the wrapping paper than the actual toy.” She added, “It was really great … it couldn’t have been any better.”
Lala also said that this holiday in Los Angeles “blew the last five years” of holiday celebrations “out of the water.” She revealed, “It finally felt like I had the the spirit of the holiday, and that’s what I grew up with. Christmas was always about, like, the spirit that comes with it. We were able to get back to that, and that’s important to me.”
Lala also hopes that this is “the last Christmas” she spends in California. As we all know, Lala hails from Utah and isn’t mincing words about visiting with Ocean. She concluded, “Whenever I go back to Utah, it’s just – there’s something about that place, where the energy … it feels like you’re in a Christmas movie. So I’m hoping to do that with Ocean, so that she can have Christmases the way I used to have them.”

We’re three episodes into season 4 of The Real Housewives of Miami, and it is already exceeding expectations. It has everything we want from The Real Housewives — the drama, the laughs, and the heart. Seeing where some of the cast members landed after eight years away from reality TV is genuinely intriguing, and with a diverse set of newbies mixed in, RHOM feels like a breath of fresh air. However, there is one little thing that is off about this season, and that’s Adriana de Moura’s part-time status.
Since the beginning of RHOM, Adriana has been the show’s fireball, pot-stirrer, and multilinguist. From her season-long feud with Joanna Krupa to the shocking season 3 revelation that she was secretly married, Adriana kept the show lively for its original run. So you’d think she would have a free pass into the reboot as a full-time cast member. She sings the theme song, for crying out loud!
Adriana is finally opening up about not being a full-time, mojito-holding Housewife this time around. She appeared on Yahoo’s interview series, We Should Talk, and said there’s a two-fold answer to why she isn’t front and center this season. The main issue was the timing.
“One is that I started my master’s at Harvard, so my time is really … right now, I study a lot. There was a question [of] whether I could really dedicate that much time to the show, but eventually, I was able to juggle it,” she explained.
So not only is she a reality TV star, a mom, a musician, and an art dealer, but she’s also a graduate student at Harvard. That’s pretty iconic. Give her some credit.
Although Adriana was pushed to the “friend of” role this year, she’s still a huge part of the show, serving as a bridge for some of the new cast members to enter the group. She’s also feeling confident that if the show comes back for season 5, she’ll be holding a mojito.
She told We Should Talk, “At the end, the decision was made, but I think that for next season, I’m for sure back on full time. I appreciate your support and your loyalty. That means a lot to me. I ended up being in every single episode. I can’t help it that drama loves me!”

Kinley's mom,...The Real Housewives of Miami has some really interesting housewives. Honestly, more so than any franchise I’ve seen in awhile. If you’ve been watching, Larsa Pippen is giving us everything for that paycheck. Even thought it doesn’t seem that she needs is. We saw Larsa in the early seasons of the show but she’s back and better than ever. The former wife of basketball legend Scottie Pippen, mother of four, and one-time friend of Kim Kardashian, Larsa is fascinating to say the least. She has an obscene amount of wealth from her divorce but that’s not stopping her from making her own coin. Larsa revealed in the first episode that she is making $10K a day on her OnlyFans account. That’s right – $10K A DAY.
Larsa’s OnlyFans bio promises, “an exclusive look at me modeling some of my favorite swimsuits, dresses, and jewelry designs I’m most passionate about. [See] what it’s like being chased by the world’s richest, most athletic and handsome men and still not finding that connection I’ve been looking for. That’s where you come in! As a member of my OnlyFans you will be able to tune into my live streams for a chance at a live virtual date with me! Will I find my dream man on OnlyFans? Give it your best shot and we’ll find out!”
When Larsa told her fellow housewives about it, they seemed shocked at the news and were equal parts judgment and admiration. One such housewife who had a hard time wrapping her brain around it was Lisa Hochstein. Now she’s opening up to Page Six about her feelings on Larsa’s stream of income.
Lisa said , “As long as she’s not showing any private areas, I think that that’s fine. Look, I don’t know much at all about OnlyFans. I don’t have an account. I don’t follow anyone on OnlyFans. Larsa’s really the only friend I know who does it and she says she doesn’t take off her clothes.” For someone still in her 30s, Lisa sounds like such an old fuddy duddy about this.
Lisa continued with less judgment, “I think it’s amazing. If you can make $10,000 a day to just give your fans a little more?” Lisa even considered joining herself. She revealed, “Like for myself, I would maybe show my exercise routine or what I’m eating throughout the day, things that I wouldn’t necessarily show all over my Instagram. And if somebody wanted to pay me $10,000 a day to see these little things, sign me up!” Sigh, Lisa, I don’t think people are going to pay you $10K a day for that but sure.
When asked if she checked out Larsa’s OnlyFans paged, Lisa admitted, “I think I tried and it was too complicated. So, I just gave up.”
Of course, building an OnlyFans empire doesn’t come without some scrutiny from others. In the season trailer, we see a glimpse of “friend of” Adriana de Moura has accused Larsa of having work done to look like her former best friend, Kim.
But Lisa disagrees. She said, “I don’t think it’s trying to become Kim Kardashian. People just want to look better and they see these images on social media or wherever and they want to attain that. It’s not just Kim Kardashian. I think Larsa looks great. I think if she’s happy, that’s all that matters.”

Selling Sunset season four has dropped on Netflix, but the drama off-camera is even better. Fans of the show knew to expect a blossoming romantic relationship between Jason Oppenheim and Chrishell Stause before the season’s episodes even dropped. Personally, I was dissecting any and all interactions between these two on screen. Unfortunately, most of their relationship seems to be saved for the pending fifth season.
Though season five of Selling Sunset promises to show pieces of Chrishell and Jason’s romance, what is it all for? In case you somehow missed it, these two have already split. Cause of relationship death? It sounds like this pair couldn’t reach a compromise on having children. In his announcement of the split Jason was very complimentary of Chrishell.
He shared, “While Chrishell and I are no longer together, we remain best friends and we will always love and support one another. She was the most amazing girlfriend I’ve ever had, and it was the happiest and most fulfilling relationship of my life.” Remind me how these two were best friends but never discussed whether they wanted to have kids before dating?
The way Jason manages to remain “best friends” with his ex-girlfriends/employees is…fascinating. In a recent interview with Us Weekly Jason was discussing the work style of the Oppenheim women. He was once again giving heavy accolades to Chrishell, Mary Fitzgerald (another ex- of Jason’s), and Emma Hernan.
“I mean, Mary works really hard, sometimes, like, too hard on small deals,” Jason said, (backhandedly). “I’m like, ‘Take it easy.’ Chrishell works really hard. Yeah, I’d say Mary, Chrishell and Emma. But I mean, I can’t rank the full [team]. … I’m not surprised how well [Emma] did [as a show newcomer], but I’m very happy with how she did on camera [and] off camera. I mean, she’s a very impressive woman.”
Jason explained that there are male agents within the Oppenheim group too. “There are more female agents in the office than male agents, but there are male agents,” Jason revealed. “And then in the Orange County office, it’s probably, like, 50/50. So, I think you’ll see more of a gender mix in Orange County.”
Netflix announced in late November that a new Selling Sunset spin-off centered in Orange County has begun filming. The show will follow Jason as he expands the Oppenheim group by opening a second office in Newport Beach.

Boy do we love a twist ending. Just when we thought all our nerve endings had been fried thanks to the sh*!tshow that was 2020, there was still more to be shocked by in 2021. Meghan...Lisa Hochstein was an original cast member of Real Housewives of Miami and she’s back for their season 4 reboot. During the early seasons, we saw Lisa leading a charmed life with her plastic surgeon husband, Dr. Lenny Hochstein. But the couple experienced stressors in the amount of hours Lenny worked and also heartbreaking infertility. But once the show was off the air, the pair seemed to forge ahead with life together.
Now that we have been through a few episodes of the new season of RHOM, we caught up on Lisa’s life and marriage. And some of it was surprising. The two finally got the family they wanted when they welcomed a son in 2015 and a daughter in 2019, both via surrogate. They also started a new business, Hochstein Med Spa. Then they finished construction on their fabulous Star Island mansion.
Now Lisa is giving all the details on their life over the last few years, and where they are currently. Lisa told Entertainment Tonight about the years between seasons,”I’m almost a little relieved that I had that hiatus to kind of do all of it, because — it would’ve been great TV — but really hard on my soul and my emotional everything. I’m happy that I got all of it done and get to show it to you and it’s all complete. The kids, the house, the job, the med spa, all of it.”
But the surprising aspect of their relationship was revealed in episodes 1 and 2 of the current season. Lisa explained that back when RHOM went off the air, their relationship hit a rough patch. Lenny had an “emotional affair” during the couple’s brief separation. Which is something Lisa found hard to revisit on screen. Lisa admitted, “It was absolutely a closed wound, something I didn’t think I would ever have to rehash or speak about.”
She continued, “Honestly, it really wasn’t much of anything.” Even though Lisa referred to the woman as a “two dollar ho” in the first episode. Lisa noted, “I should have explained myself better. It was more about Lenny and I, and not so much about any other person. We were going through our own difficulties. We separated and then whatever happened, happened. We decided that we love each other so much, we want to be together, we couldn’t be apart from each other.”
Lisa went on, “The separation lasted all of about one and a half months — it wasn’t a long thing at all. It was just, we couldn’t be apart. We can’t be apart, and when we were apart — and when I was ready to just say, ‘Bye, let me sign the papers. I’m not going to be a part of this…’ — is when he realized that this is not what we wanted. We wanted to try to have the family we’ve always dreamed of and thank God we did, because if we didn’t, we would not have Logan and Elle. So thank God for us not giving up.”
Despite Lisa’s claim that all is well in the Hochstein house, the RHOM trailer for this season depicted marriage trouble. Lisa was caught off guard and said, “You know, I was shocked just like everyone else to see that we had [issues]. I don’t feel like we have problems right now. … I have an amazing relationship with Lenny right now. We hit bumps and all of that, just like everybody else. We go through our ups and downs, and there’s days where I want to, say, dislike him and there’s days where I’m obsessed with him.”
Lisa concluded, “I would like to say that we are in a very good place right now. That’s just life, that’s relationships. We’ve been together for 14 years and you can’t expect that amount of time to be perfect. There’s going to be some issues along the way.”

I’ll admit I am one of the shameful people who thought the return of Heather Dubrow to Real Housewives of Orange County was going to be a major uplift to the franchise. I guess I’m not mad. Just disappointed. While there is still space to enjoy the pomp and circumstance of all the plastic surgeon lawsuit drama, we weren’t born yesterday. Authentic reactions and conversations between the Housewives is always best. I wonder what RHOC’s biggest fan thinks of all this…
Kelly Dodd hasn’t kept her obsession with all things Bravo and Real Housewives of Orange County very quiet since her firing from the show. She’s come forward with statements about being much happier and healthier since her time away from filming. She’s also done her best to knock Andy Cohen down a few pegs on her podcast. Most recently, though, she’s come for the ratings of RHOC altogether.
In a Monday morning tweet, Kelly shared a ratings post about RHOC. The post indicated that episode 4 of season 16 only had about 822,000 viewers. Kelly asked, “Wait, wasn’t I the ratings problem ? Wasn’t there a boycott ?? We got over a million viewers 14 out of 16 weeks last season despite HUGE competition from election coverage on the news !!! This year ? #RHOC16 under a million 3x in 4 weeks !” Kelly also called out Andy Cohen in her post saying, “Hey @Andy How’s that reboot going ???” The gall!
For once, Andy actually got down in the mud with the former Orange holder. Andy replied to Kelly’s mess on Tuesday morning saying, “Good morning! Reboot going great. Feels like a return to form for #RHOC. Look at the delayed numbers, not live. That’s what’s measured.” As they say in New York, CLIP!
Several of Andy’s followers rejoiced in the take down. One said “[Kelly] got served…stop the bitterness girl.” There were plenty of mic-drops and ‘Who gonna check me boo’ gifs to go around too.
Kelly has yet to fight back against Andy’s correction. I’m just not sure what she’s going for with all of this mess. Is biting the hand that feeds really a great strategy to finding some form of employment? Her problematic behaviors have also gotten her canned from other companies. I know that podcast she’s shilling can’t be paying the bills. Maybe 2022 will bring her some new hobbies.

Lala Kent continues to scramble to control the narrative of her messy breakup with ex-fiance Randall Emmett. She’s doing the podcast rounds, selling anti-Randall merchandise on her site and just all around trashing him every chance she gets. Not saying he doesn’t deserve it though. The Vanderpump Rules star has also accused Randall of “suffering from self loathing” and buying her a fake engagement ring. She most recently said about their relationship, “Every day I find out something new that makes me feel [like], ‘Lala you were so disposable the whole time. You meant nothing. … You were a possession, a shiny object and nothing more. And I have to be OK with that.”
But Lala knows that selling vibrators while shading her ex for his bedroom skills isn’t going to be a meaningful source of income. So she’s gotta keep going. She announced that she’s going to start touring again with her pod. And despite hinting at a leave from VPR, we know Lala has to stay on tv if she wants to make that coin. So apparently, she has bigger plans for herself.
As reported by Reality Blurb, Lala appeared not the podcast Not Skinny But Not Fat to discuss her possible future. And that includes a bid for being a real housewife. Said Lala, “I would love to do [Real Housewives of Salt Lake City]. Take me back to my roots. I like [Real Housewives of Beverly Hills]. But I just think the age is [an issue]. You have to think about, do you have things in common with these people? Just living in the same area is not like a [commonality].”
Can someone to take a moment to explain to Lala that her age isn’t the biggest issue – it’s that she’s not rich or aspirational enough for these shows. Having a supposedly rich baby daddy isn’t going to get you on a show with the likes of Meredith Marks or Kathy Hilton. Can you imagine? There are no BJs for PJs on these franchises. And if there is, they certainly wouldn’t talk about it.
Of course it gets worse. Lala would love to join RHOBH if they bring Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave back into the mix. She explained that it would be a “different story” because Teddi “has a young baby”. Just like Lala. Also not the strong commonality that Lala thinks it might be. Is anyone really interested in watching young babies being raised on RHOBH? I think not. Lala continued, “If they were to say to me, ‘We would like to transition you into this…’ Yes. Because I’m all about my future and what’s going to get me to the next level.” Babe, you have about 10 steps before the “next level” you’re referring to.
I guess some of Randall’s self-inflated ego rubbed off on Lala too. Then again, didn’t we always know she was this way? But in this case I’m going to have to say, please, housewives producers, don’t “Give Them Lala.”

Christine Quinn did not fair well on this season of Selling Sunset. She has admitted that she “loves being the villain”, but when you dish it out, you have to also take it. And take it she did. There were nonstop rumors and speculations about the validity of her pregnancy. She also had a traumatic birth experience and suffered from PTSD while filming. Things got worse when Mary Fitzgerald blew up her spot about her falling out with her castmates. Said Mary of Christine, “Yeah, things have happened, and I mean we are professional and cordial at the office, but outside of the office, most people don’t choose to associate with her. I think everybody will see why and understand.” Ouch.
Now Christine has a bone to pick with producers of the show, claiming they play favorites. As reported by Us Weekly, Christine appeared on Daily Pop to explain. She admitted, “I feel like there’s definitely favoritism in the editing room, and that is what it is on the show, but I do the best [I can]. There’s many times where in the show I say certain things, but they don’t want to have another person respond to me, so sometimes they’ll do an interview clip. I’m just like, ‘Why can’t I ever get a word in sometimes?’”
Christine added that she hadn’t watched the latest season but her interest piqued when the online pregnancy rumors started. “I’ve only seen little clips here and there. I didn’t know where it was coming from, and then I realized people were like, ‘I can’t believe you’re doing yoga after having a C-section!’ And I’m like, ‘What are they talking about?’”
Fans were quick to point out a yoga scene Christine was in, where her baby bump wasn’t shown. Christine said that was editing. She tweeted, “I guess people think when I did yoga in the show I was not pregnant? I was pregnant in that scene. It took me 4 months [before] I could work out again.”
As for the rest of the series, Christine mused, “I was hoping that there would be multiple sides that would be shown — my vulnerability, different things — but throughout the seasons, it just seemed to be this one-note consistency of my character portrayal. So it was hard for me, especially when I was going through a lot this season. … It’s fun, but people need to realize it’s a show.”

Season one Housewife Noella Bergener is really bringing the drama in her first season. Honestly, I’m finding her presence and arc very sad and borderline dark. I just can’t imagine sharing some of these deeply personal moments with a nationwide fan base. If you aren’t watching Real Housewives of Orange County, you may not even know who Noella is.
Briefly, Noella comes to RHOC via former Housewife Braunwyn Windham-Burke. Noella has been on the show for about 15 seconds, and is already going through an awful blind-side divorce. Her husband not only left her during the show’s filming, but served her divorce papers from Puerto Rico. This guy is an “ambulance chasing” attorney who no doubt understood that by filing for divorce from his wife out of the country, he would be able to avoid certain jurisdictional expectations.
Because James Bergener filed for divorce outside of California, it seems he has been allowed to cut Noella off from all of their joint finances. At least that’s Emily Simpson’s take. Never mind that he left his wife of less than two years with their young son to care for. Reports seem to indicate this man hasn’t even visited his child since filing.
Of course, the billboard famous lawyer has an image to uphold in all of this. Currently, his Instagram grid houses a mere three posts total. Each post is a video detailing how he is not a villain in this situation. Throughout, James tries to seem sullen and pensive. Personally, I found it creepy and weird. I’m not kidding when I say the people in my house asked me to put in headphones to listen to “that murder whisper voice.” First, James says, “My divorce from Noella was granted December 8th here in Puerto Rico. It is something I wish I never had to do. I have always been supportive of Noella.” Then he begins his passive aggressive take down.
James claims to be “so happy” that Noella is on the show. He says that when he and his soon to be ex-wife were home buying, finding a property to meet the RHOC standards was a must. Then he says, “as filming got closer and closer, she changed.” He claims that Noella is the one who filed for separation. He adds “I love Noella, but I am not sure who she is anymore.”
James awkwardly describes his conservative puritan upbringing and contrasts this with Noella’s “sex drugs and rock and roll” lifestyle. As if it’s her fault he has weak resolve, or whatever. He followed this piety brag by saying he is now living a “healthy lifestyle” for himself and his son. James didn’t mention the fact that he hasn’t even seen his child, but I’m sure it just slipped his mind…
After taking several minutes to insinuate that the wife he intelligently chose to marry was a weak soul who was thirsty for fame, James decided it was time to remind everyone that “the purpose of this video is not to speak ill of Noella…especially on a public forum.” Ummmm….??? What am I missing?
James also gave details on his child with Noella. He shared a heart-string tugging story of the day he met his baby. He says “my love for my son has never waned, or waxed, or left. I have not abandoned him.” James claims to have paid over $150k towards the care of his son before he uses that classic cop out; “I am not a perfect man.”
Noella wasted almost no time in responding to James’ off-putting pleas for sympathy. She reposted one of his videos with a caption that started with, “Today my ex called me for the first time in 5 months. He asked for my help with his PR. I said of course.” Why though!?
“I told him to stop holding up support,” Noella’s caption continued. “…get his son a gift for Xmas & that I was going to use my settlement to buy a home for our family and I’d publicly thank him.” Noella claims that “hours” after her promise of kindness James posted these insulting videos to his page. She said, “Hours later he posted this. I don’t know why this is happening. I was very protective of him during filming and focused solely on my journey.”
Noella announced that every receipt she has shown within the divorce is real. She ended her caption with a sullen, “Happy Holidays to single moms”.

Dorit Kemsley has been going through a lot lately. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has faced one massive setback after another over the last few months. First was the news that her home was broken into and she was held at gunpoint while her kids slept. In the aftermath, Dorit revealed, “I can tell you that this is something that’s truly affected me. There’s deep, deep trauma. I am taking day by day, but I’m doing therapy and doing all of the things I need to do to try to come up on the other side.”
Husband PK Kemsley took the news hard too, and was recently arrested on suspicion of a DUI. He clearly realized the error of his ways and Dorit explained that PK was “very remorseful” about the incident. She added, “He’s very regretful. He fully understands the nature and the danger of drinking and driving. [He] reassures me that it will never happen again.”
Now PK is having more back luck. As reported by Radar Online, PK revealed that she was diagnosed with coronavirus over the holiday. He posted the news to his Instagram and said, “Here’s my wife, my mum, and my son captured in a beautiful moment and got me thinking about being lucky and grateful. Like many of us I’ve spent this Xmas in isolation with Covid…I’m writing this from my isolation room.”
He continued, “I was speaking to a friend today and said to him… I haven’t had it too good lately, I’m feeling super unlucky…first the home invasion, then the arrest for suspicion of DUI and now Covid…like WTF…” But PK has good friends to remind him of what he has to be thankful for. His friend supposedly told him, “Well PK, how about the following, no one was hurt in the invasion, you were not given a DUI and your Covid is super mild. Maybe you are in fact a lucky fella.”
PK agreed that his friend was “right” and wished his fans a “Happy Xmas” and a “happy, healthy and peaceful new year.” We are wishing PK a speedy recovery!

Spoiler Alert: This article contains details on the finale of HBO's Insecure. It's so hard to say goodbye. On Dec. 26, HBO's Emmy-nominated hit Insecure came to a...Katie Thurston might like being messy on Instagram, but no one is messier than Greg Grippo. Thank The Bachelor universe these two didn’t end up together because imagine the public fighting on social media if she left Greg, not Blake Moynes, for John Hersey! While Katie and Greg bonded over losing their fathers on her season of The Bachelorette, everything else was just not okay between them.
On Hometowns Greg told Katie he was falling in love, but Katie couldn’t say it back (because she’s the lead on a TV show and is contractually obligated to keep some things to herself). Greg wasn’t ok with this and ultimately left the show because he couldn’t handle not knowing where they stood. At the Men Tell All people accused Greg of gaslighting Katie. Kaitlyn Bristowe even said that Greg, “… just wanted to quit before he got fired.”
Us Weekly now reports that Greg explained his reasons for leaving the show on a recent episode of the “We Met at Acme” podcast. “It was a really tough decision to leave,” he started. “It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to, you know, choose for myself… especially after hearing everyone saying like, ‘Oh, I was acting or I ran away when it got too serious,’… I mean, for me, I’m like, ‘What if she said I love you back, guys?’ Like, I couldn’t leave then… I would have known then [that] this is gonna be my wife, I wouldn’t have left.”
Greg also said that everything on the show felt “a little too scripted and felt like, ‘Alright, we need to play by [the rules]’ — I had no problem going into, like, the fantasy suite and there being two other guys there. I wasn’t looking for the show to end. I wasn’t at all. I wanted us to communicate on a mutual level in those moments.” Yeah, Greg, you were on The Bachelor!
Greg shared that he did have regrets about leaving the show early. “I mean, I was even calling producers after [I quit], I was DMing, like, Kaitlyn Bristowe— nobody was answering me… I was calling producers left and right.” Hmm this is interesting. Greg even told his family members, “I’m like, ‘Guys, I think there’s a better chance than not [we get back together] because let me tell you, it’s like very real between us.’” Greg, you’re giving me whiplash! You thought your connection was so real, you’d get back together with Katie after the show? But you left early because everything felt “too scripted?” Make it make sense.
The podcasters “asked what he would say if Katie called him now and wanted to be together,” to which Greg replied: “That chapter’s closed… I’m just at another point in my life. And I don’t think we’re right for each other anyway.” Nope. You’re definitely not!
