Carl Radke Says Watching Austen Kroll And Lindsay Hubbard Hook Up On Summer House Will Be “Tough” Now That He’s Dating Lindsay

We’re just days away from the Season 6 premiere of Summer House and this summer looks like it might be the most dramatic yet. The rocky road leading up to Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula’s wedding is like a dark cloud over everything. Meanwhile, we have Paige DeSorbo getting serious with Craig Conover, even though her Italian lover Andrea Denver will be in the Hamptons this go around. Then we have the mess that is Southern Charm’s Austen Kroll, who can’t restrain himself from heading to New York to wreck everything up. Thankfully, we’ll also have Carl Radke back on our TVs after wayyyy too long.

If you haven’t heard the news, Carl and Lindsay Hubbard are officially official yet again. Yes, there’s something in the Atlantic Ocean making all these Bravolebs fall in love with each other. But based on the Season 6 trailer, Linds seems to have one last rendezvous with Austen before crawling back to Carlito. And in an interview with Us Weekly, Carl has chimed in on how it feels to watch his girlfriend hook up with his friend on TV. I’m sure you’re aware of First World Problems, but now I give you Good Vibe Tribe Problems. The rest of us normies will never understand.

Carl knew that Lindsay and Austen had a close relationship going into the summer and even well before the filming of Winter House. “I always was supportive of their friendship, and I even was like, ‘Yeah, you and Austen should have fun, go for it. I mean, do your thing.’ So I’ve always wanted Lindsay to be happy,” Carl said. I’M SWOONING. Carl is such a self-aware King. Linds better not break his perfect little heart.

Carlito went on to explain that Linds is an adult who can make her own decisions, even though he is protective of his No. 1 Amiga. “I wanted her to have the best summer she could have because — based on both of our previous summers — I think we were all needing to let loose a bit,” he said. So even though the rumors of Carl and Linds have been going around for months, it sounds like the two will keep it PG on the show for now.

If you watched the Summer House trailer, the graphic pillow talk between Linds and Austen has probably been burned into your brain like it has for me. Carl admits that it will be “a little tough” to watch some of the scenes of next season. “But I’ll be sitting next to her watching it,” he added. “Yes, the show was filmed six, seven months ago, but I try to remain present and just remember where we are right now. I mean, we all have previous relationships. We’ve all had makeouts and hookups that have been on this show. So, it’s like, ‘What’s another one?'” Such a positive king. Bring on Season 6, Bravo.

Emily Simpson Says Noella Bergener Is Thirstier Than Dr. Jen Armstrong

The thirst is real! And on Real Housewives of Orange County, the title for the thirstiest is still up for grabs. Many fans (and Bravolebrities) are easily pointing to newbie Noella Bergener. Not only has Noella been airing out her “surprise” divorce for the cameras, but she has also come for Heather Dubrow in the strangest of ways. In a recent episode of RHOC, Noella accused Heather of “slamming” people up against walls. So the producers literally said “roll that footage” and showed nothing of the sort. I don’t even think Noella knew what she was talking about when she said it. Listen, I don’t mind someone coming for Heather, who has been insufferable this season, but Noella isn’t the one.

So, it does seem as though Noella is very thirsty indeed. And on a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live, fellow castmate Emily Simpson confirmed. When Host Andy Cohen asked, “Who do you think is thirstier, Noella or Dr. Jen [Armstrong]?” Emily didn’t hesitate and responded, “Oh, I’d say Noella. She does Instagrams from her bathtub. That’s thirsty.” LOL, paging Meredith Marks.

Meanwhile, Noella probably doesn’t agree, as she’s busy accusing Jen of the same thing. In a recent episode, Noella decided to come for Jen and make it weird that Jen tagged Noella in a photo of herself on Instagram. The alleged issue, which Noella either wasn’t smart enough or inept enough to explain, is that Noella gets her work done elsewhere. And she didn’t want Jen, a cosmetic dermatologist, insinuating that Noella was a patient. Imagine fighting with someone for credit over where you get your work done. Rich lady problems, ammirite?

 

RELATED: Emily Simpson Slams Noella Bergener As Contradictory And Not Credible For Claims That Heather Dubrow “Slammed People Into Walls”

 

Noella recently said of the incident, “The thirstiness was her coming up to me mere days after being divorced and just setting the whole tone for a conversation when it was really a confrontation. She’s thirsty. She’s one of those people girls who just takes a little something and turns it into a big thing so she can hear her own voice. I hate being around people like that sometimes because you can’t let your wall down.”

This is all such a strange argument to be having. And it kind of points to the lack of drama this season on RHOC. Again. It’s like producers stuffed all the drama of the season into Heather’s sushi party. Is that the best we are going to get? Because honestly, neither Noella or Jen are bringing enough to the table for me. Neither is Heather, who as supposed to save the franchise. Are we in for another snooze fest of a season? I guess we will find out.

Lala Kent Says She Would Date 50 Cent Years After The Rapper’s Feud With Randall Emmett

Now that Lala Kent of Vanderpump rules is moving on from Randall Emmett, Many are musing as to who would possible make a good match for the VPR vixen. If you, like others, had the bizarre but entertaining idea of Lala and 50 Cent, she is 100 perCent into it. Lala confirmed on a recent episode of the Juicy Scoop podcast with Heather Mcdonald, that she would in fact, date the rapper.

While discussing Lala’s dating life, Heather asked, “some people are asking would you date 50 Cent?” Lala took a pause before responding, “F–k yes… I don’t think 50 Cent would date Lala.” She then added, “Can I tell you when Fifty came out with his song “In Da Club” I had the biggest crush on him.”

“And what year was that?” Heather asked the reality star. Lala mused, “Oh, I was so young. I think I was till in junior high. I just thought he was the finest thing to ever fall onto the planet.”

The connection between Lala and Fifty goes back to the infamous 2019 ‘Fofty’ feud between Randall and Fifty. The rapper alleged at the time that the television producer owed him a million dollars. Fifty made the the debt public after seeing a scene where Lala discusses a Range Rover Randall had bought for her as a gift.

Referencing the feud Heather continued, “When that whole thing blew up… You were like involved in that [feud]. You were very gangster Lala at that point and [saying] ‘my man’, How do you feel now looking back?”

Lala quipped, “Oh, Fifty, bring the dogs in.” Heather pressed, “What’s that mean?”. Lala replied, “It means, bring the dogs out. Here he is. You would not see me sliding into defend [Randall] by any means.”

Sorry Randall. Next time you allegedly owe someone a cool mill, you’ll have to fight your own fight. Despite the antagonistic back and forth between Lala and Fifty at that time, it was clearly a case of Lala standing up for her man. Randall didn’t appreciate the calibre of woman he had: One willing to take on her Junior high celebrity crush to defend her baby daddy.

Fifty, the balls in your court. As long as it’s not James Kennedy, we have no objections.

Lamar Odom Tristan Thompson “Corny” For Paternity Drama During Relationship With Khloe Kardashian

If there is one thing that you can say about Khloe Kardashian’s friends – it’s that they are loyal. And that includes her ex-husband, Lamar Odom. While it was rumored that he wasn’t so loyal when they were actually married, he has since become a big time Khloe supporter. He’s ready to stick up for the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star again.

Tristan Thompson, one-time boyfriend and father of Khloe’s daughter True Thompson, was busted cheating again. This time, he fathered a child with someone else while he was still with Khloe. Despite trying to deny it, Maralee Nichols, the woman he cheated with, was able to prove paternity. And Tristan had no choice but to fess up.

Now Lamar is throwing in his two cents about his thoughts on Tristan and the drama. As reported by E! News, Lamar recently said of Khloe, “It’s too bad, but she’s gonna be alright. She’s a strong girl.” He added that if he were to see her, “First, I would give her a hug, I haven’t seen her in a long time. He would also advise her to “be strong for her daughter.”

As for his thoughts on Tristan, they weren’t so thoughtful. When asked about Tristan’s cheating, Lamar said, “dude is corny for that.” I would call Tristan more than just corny, but I guess Lamar was feeling generous. Especially since he recently mentioned that he would like to reconnect with Khloe. In the Instagram comments section, Lamar expressed his support for his ex-wife. He said, “I truly wish nothing but the best for her and I’m hoping we can reconnect and talk one day as friends she is a good person and deserves the world.”

 

RELATED: Lamar Odom Hopes To Reconnect With Ex-Wife Khloe Kardashian Amidst Tristan Thompson Paternity Drama

 

That sentiment was very similar to Tristan’s mea culpa on Instagram when he was ultimately caught. He addressed Khloe and wrote, “Khloe, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don’t deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry.”

Of course Tristan and Lamar have no love lost for each other. They openly beefed on social media after both of them commented on a spicy bikini photo Khloe posted. While a source said that Khloe “hates they were publicly acting like that,” she also “had a laugh.” Imagine having a laugh over two men who dogged you out now fighting for your attention. Couldn’t be me. But go ahead, Khloe. Keep taking what you can get.

Summer House Season 6 Premiere Recap: Summer Should Be…Fun?

Summer should be fun! That’s always been the Good Vibe Tribe’s mantra going into every season of Summer House. They even managed to make things fun at the height of the pandemic in Season 5. But now it’s Season 6 and several of the Housemates are headed to the Hamptons with some serious baggage. Some of it bled over from the perfection that was Winter House. And more of it has happened in the time between the snow-covered slopes of Vermont and the beaches of Long Island.

But the good news is that we won’t be spending this season in quarantine! The Hamptons are open, and the gang will be spending the summer going back and forth from New York City. Which is a delightfully painful reminder of the brief normalcy we all enjoyed last summer before the current omicron surge. But I’m not here to harsh your vibe with this recap, so let’s just focus on the positive. The entire cast is back, with the exception of the exiled Hannah Berner, and it’s the summer leading up to Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula‘s wedding! Finally!

summer house season 6 premiere recap carl radke

The housemates are also in a brand-new house. And boy have they come a long way from having to organize their own summer shares in Montauk. First to arrive at the new digs are Lindsay Hubbard and Danielle Olivera, followed closely by Carl Radke. Carl! Oh how I missed the beating heart of Summer House on the spin-off to Vermont. Things just weren’t the same without our beloved Carlito. And this year he promises he’s back, six months sober, as Carl 6.0 PRO-MAX X. It’s also crazy to think that Danielle was ever downgraded to a recurring friend role back in Season 4. Meanwhile, Lindsay’s still dating Jason Cameron from Winter House. But she says they’re not exclusive and he won’t be making an appearance in the Hamptons this summer.

Next to show up after the Three Amigos are another trio: Paige DeSorbo, Ciara Miller and newbie Mya Allen. Mya is a friend of Paige’s from the city, who explains in her first confessional that she moved to NYC two years ago with her ex-fiancĆ©. What she doesn’t mention is that her ex-fiancĆ© is a Bravolebrity in his own right. The baker/restaurant consultant was engaged for five whole years to Kwame Onwuachi! A.k.a the fan favorite and best-dressed man on Top Chef! However, the couple broke up during quarantine and Mya’s now newly single.

summer house season 6 premiere recap paige desorbo

Paige‘s relationship status is a bit more complicated. Kyle and Amanda, who arrive next, happen to have invited Andrea Denver to join the house for the summer. Paige and Andrea’s winter romance fizzled fairly quickly after they got back to the city. Mostly because he wanted her to stop dating other people. A couple months after that, she started hooking up with Craig Conover. But now she’ll be forced to spend all summer her gorgeous Italian model of a former flame. Yeah, this could get messy. Even if most of us already know how it’s going to end…

Cue Andrea‘s grand entrance! Perfect time, Verona. He’s brought along his pal Alex Wach, a handsome, Hong Kong-born personal trainer who insists he’s definitely not a typical Hamptons playboy. In fact, he’s never even been to the Hamptons for anything other than work. And he eats two pounds of ground turkey every morning for breakfast. But first impression is that he seems sweet and is remarkably easy on the eyes. Andrea is thrilled to see Paige — so I guess there are some pros to not being able to go back to Italy for the summer. Hashtag visa problems.

summer house season 6 premiere recap lindsay hubbard don't activate me

Now that everyone has arrived — sans Luke Gulbranson, who’s in Minnesota this weekend — it’s time to party! So the roommates head downtown for their first official dinner of the summer. Which is something simple they couldn’t do pretty much at all last season. So it’s actually Ciara‘s first real, true Hamptons experience. And as a New Yorker, since she’s finally signed a lease in the city. To get to know her new housemates, Mya asks everyone to go around the table and reveal their various relationship statuses. Kyle and Amanda are the most obvious; their wedding is only three months away. And it’s been moved to Amanda’s parents’ backyard in New Jersey.

Meanwhile, Danielle is coming up on her year anniversary with boyfriend Robert Sieber. And she thinks he’s the one. Almost everyone else is some version of single. Except for Lindsay, who gets weirdly cagey when her friends ask from an update on things with Jason. They weren’t talking for a bit, now they are. But Lindsay does not want to discuss it at the table. In fact, she practically bites Carl‘s head off for even pushing the subject. It’s an unnecessarily, ahem, activated reaction (if you know, you know!). It’s clearly obvious there’s something deeper going on here. And apparently only Danielle’s privy to what’s going on with her bestie.

summer house season 6 premiere recap amanda batula kyle cooke fight night vision drinking southampton social club

The crew spends the rest of the night dancing and drinking at Southampton Social Club. Lindsay and Carl trickle in first a little after midnight, while everyone else comes home around 2 a.m. Well, not Kyle, who’s inexplicably still living it up at the club all by himself. This sends Amanda into an emotional spiral, especially when her fiancĆ© won’t pick up his phone by 3 a.m. After her twenty-seventh phone call goes unanswered, Amanda absolutely loses it, breaking a bunch of Kyle’s belongings and throwing his luggage out the front door.

When Paige and Ciara go to check on her, they find Amanda sobbing in bed alone. Kyle not coming home is obviously very triggering for her considering some of their past relationship drama. (For those who don’t know, he got blackout drunk and cheated on her without remembering ahead of Season 3.) Apparently, Kyle’s partying has gotten so out of control that he’s signed some sort of contract with Amanda saying that she can call off the wedding due to his drinking. And if she does, he owes her parents every single dollar they’ve spent on their daughter’s big day. Yikes. Kyle’s always been a grown-up party boy at heart, but that’s a serious red flag.

When Kyle finally arrives home at 4 in the morning, he doesn’t even notice his luggage on the porch. And the girls are still in his bed when he finally makes it into his bedroom. After some pretend-sleeping hijinks, Amanda spends the night in the spare bedroom, letting Kyle know in no uncertain terms that he’s in hot water. As if the busted up appliances littering the bathroom floor aren’t enough of a clue. Early the next morning, Amanda’s still furious. Though Carl‘s the one to discover Kyle’s luggage when he leaves at 6 a.m. for his morning meditation and AA meeting. Good for you, Carlito! And Kyle’s in a foul mood, because he doesn’t really think he did anything wrong. Meanwhile, Andrea‘s carrying over his tradition of bringing Paige and Ciara coffee in bed from Vermont to the Hamptons.

summer house season 6 premiere recap lindsay hubbard pregnant miscarriage lost baby jason cameron

Carl finally breaks the ice with Lindsay to find out why she was so off at dinner. And she tells him the truth: she was pregnant. And not only that, she miscarried at six weeks. Having a kid is something Lindsay’s wanted from before she ever stepped in front of Bravo’s cameras. This is obviously devastating for so many reasons. Because if she hadn’t miscarried, she would’ve kept the baby. Jason or no Jason. And that’s a big part of why we won’t be seeing him on Summer House.

Over in another part of the house, Amanda and Kyle aren’t done fighting. Oh, it’s only just beginning. Amanda’s trying to get the gravity of the situation through Kyle’s head, but he’s not interested in hearing it. He doesn’t see the connection between the problems they’ve been having about his drinking and spending the night out at Southampton Social. But Amanda refuses to be labeled the problematic one in this scenario. And unfortunately, their arguing devolves into a full-blown screaming match where therapy, denial, and the upcoming wedding all seem to be on the line. Summer may not be off to a fun start, but it definitely shouldn’t be this miserable…

TELL US – HOW SERIOUS ARE KYLE AND AMANDA’S RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS? HOW GREAT DOES CARL LOOK? WERE YOU SHOCKED TO FIND OUT ABOUT LINDSAY’S MISCARRIAGE? ARE YOU GLAD ANDREA JOINED THE HOUSE? WHAT ARE YOUR FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF ALEX AND MYA?

Below Deck Recap: Who’s The Baddest On Board?

With Rayna Lindsey, it’s been one step forward and three steps back all season on Below Deck. And I hate to spoil it at the very top of this recap, but it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that that’s exactly what happens in this week’s episode. We last left Eddie Lucas outside the junior deckhand’s cabin. About to knock and walk into the middle of her latest emotional breakdown. You almost want to scream, “Don’t do it, Eddie!” But you already know he can’t hear you through the screen. So he knocks. But as usual, Rayna’s not interesting in communicating her emotions. She’ll only admit via confessional that she feels as though her feelings are being manipulated like a marionette. One pull here being told not to roll her eyes on deck. Another tug there by letting her pull up the anchor.

Even despite Rayna shutting him down, Eddie refuses to give up. He just promises her that he’ll bring it up again later. Perhaps when she’s a little more ready to talk. But for now, they’re still in the middle of a charter. And Rayna is needed in her happy place, the galley, by Chef Rachel Hargrove. Because these strawberries are not about to hull themselves! Wes O’Dell hints to Fraser Olender that all is not well among the deck team. So yes, everything is going just great. And breakfast hasn’t even ended yet.

below deck recap season 9 episode 12 rayna lindsey eddie lucas n-word

Later in the morning, Eddie tries once more to get something out of Rayna, but to pretty much no avail. She tells him the whole N-word situation with Heather Chase is still upsetting her. (This despite Heather having apologized now not once but twice. And Rayna having told the chief stew that she accepted her apology and wanted to move on.) Eddie validates Rayna’s feelings that the use of the slur should bother her. But essentially there’s nothing Heather, Eddie or anyone else can do to help Rayna feel better about the situation.

However, the deckhand also insists that she was crying in her cabin for a completely different reason. But won’t tell Eddie what about. In fact she’d rather jump overboard than discuss it. Eddie’s forced to go back to Captain Lee Rosbach and report the entire conversation. Including everything the Cap didn’t know about the N-word drama swirling around below deck. Lee rightfully explains that he can’t think of any situation in which the use of the slur would be acceptable. And now he’s determined to get to the bottom of the situation.

below deck recap season 9 episode 12 fraser olender confessional

Meanwhile, the interior department has a full day ahead. What with pulling off both a beach picnic and a surprise vow renewal that was all Heather‘s idea. Good thing the cavalry is supposed to arrive sometime today in the form of Kaylee Milligan, Heather’s former second stew. And in a case of Murphy’s law, she shows up to M/Y Seanna while Fraser is, of course, off the boat prepping for the guests’ beach picnic. And it turns out Kaylee is much more than just Heather’s old underling. They’re apparently best friends, which is certainly going to do wonders for the insecurity Fraser is already feeling about Kaylee joining the team. However, when the stews finally meet after the beach picnic, Fraser is warm and welcoming. And ready for Kaylee to do all the laundry.

Meanwhile, Eddie forces yet another uncomfortable chat with Rayna. Under the guise of getting to run the davit. (That’s the little crane that hoists the jet skis up out of the water.) Rayna finally adds another piece of context to her problem with Heather. She feels like Eddie dismissed, or somehow ignored entirely, the entire N-word conversation. And says now she can’t trust him as a boss. He reminds her that she was the one who approached him to apologize for being disrespectful. But Rayna offers almost nothing in the way of reconciliation. She refuses to be friends with Heather, blaming the chief stew’s “ignorance.” And when Eddie asks if she can trust him now, she replies with a noncommittal “We shall see…”

below deck recap season 9 episode 12 captain lee rosbach vow renewal

For the guests’ dinner dedicated to Black excellence, Rachel‘s prepared a full Japanese tasting menu. Because why not chase her own excellence too? And Captain Lee is back at the table in his formalwear. However, one of the guests — perhaps the one who was so vocally angry last week? — excuses herself with a toothache. Not great timing, considering what she and her husband are about to miss. After five courses of near-perfect Japanese cuisine, the men of the charter group surprise their wives with a group vow renewal. With Captain Lee begrudgingly officiating! Eddie ends the night once again filling Lee in on the Rayna drama. But now the first officer’s left not knowing what to do following his deckhand’s accusations. In Lee’s eyes, ultimately, it’s up to Rayna to work it out and continue doing her job.

The next morning is drop-off day. And I must say, everything on this charter seems to have gone quite smoothly. All the way down to Rachel‘s final breakfast of seafood omelettes (topped with caviar!), chicken and waffles and bananas foster French toast. By the time the boat reaches the dock, the guests can’t even come up with the adequate words to describe how pleased they are with the charter. One of the wives even gifts Rachel with her U.S. Navy retirement coin as extra thanks for her skills in the kitchen. The tip meeting reveals just how grateful the guests were — to the tune of $25,000. That’s the biggest tip of the season thus far, and $2,270 each. Though everyone in the crew is pressured by Captain Lee into giving $100 to Kaylee for saving the day mid-charter.

below deck recap season 9 episode 12 jake foulger thong

To celebrate their final night out before the last charter, the crew heads ashore for dinner at the Stone Barn Park Hyatt. The meal is family-style, operating under the false pretense that everyone on the crew genuinely likes each other. Yet thankfully, there’s basically no drama during dinner. Rayna reveals she’s found a love for cooking, and asks Rachel for advice on culinary programs. And notably everyone in the crew chimes in that being in the galley seems to be Rayna’s real passion. Hint, hint: stop being a deckhand ASAP and become a chef, OK? In fact, the wildest moment of the night is Jake Foulger revealing he’s wearing one of Heather‘s thongs. Of course, the lead deckhand ends the night diving into the hotel’s water feature. It’s practically tradition at this point.

Meanwhile, Fraser pulls Heather and Kaylee aside to apologize for his earlier insecurities about the latter joining the interior. He’s quickly come to see that having Kaylee around will be helpful. And admits to letting his internal demons get the best of him. Though back on the boat, it’s all about Fraser and Jake, who spend the rest of the night bonding on the swim platform. Fraser may finally be appreciative of the vibe in the interior, but out of everyone in the crew, he says he’ll be friends with the lead deckhand forever. And Jake and his mustache reciprocate the love. Aww!

TELL US – DO YOU THINK RAYNA HAS A JUSTIFIED REASON NOT TO TRUST EDDIE? WHAT’S YOUR FIRST IMPRESSION OF KAYLEE? WOULD RAYNA BE BETTER OFF AS A CHEF THAN A DECKHAND? WILL THE GOOD VIBES BETWEEN HEATHER, FRASER AND KAYLEE LAST THROUGH THE FINAL CHARTER?

Former Shahs Of Sunset Star Lilly Ghalichi Is Pregnant With Second Child

More Bravo babies in 2022! There’s no doubt that there was a bravo baby boom in 2021 but how about this year? Shahs of Sunset star Lilly Ghalichi is here to kick things off.

As reported by Us Weekly, Lilly is pregnant with her second child with husband Dara Mir. Lilly made the announcement by posting a sweet pic to her Instagram. It features Lilly looking glamorous and posing with her baby bump. She’s next to Dara and their three year old Alara. She captioned the pic, “Been busy creating life.”

In her Instagram stories, Lilly happily wrote “Surprise!!! Sorry I’ve been so MIA. It’s been a hard few months this pregnancy. Thrilled to be expecting our next baby and finally feeling better.” Lilly previously noted that her first pregnancy “was very difficult” and she was open to a surrogate.

But either way, she knew that she wanted Alara to have a sibling. In 2019 she said, “One thing I do know for sure is I will have at least one more baby in life. It would be an injustice, as delicious as Alara is, to not have at least one more.” She added, “I’m having more kids 1,000 percent. Becoming a mother has been the most life-changing experience in my life for the better! I’ve never experienced anything harder or more difficult, but at the same time, never something as rewarding as seeing your baby, your flesh and blood. I definitely want more children with or without a man.”

At the time, Lilly was likely referring to hitting a rough patch in her marriage. Whatever was going on, Dara filed for divorce. Lilly spoke candidly after the breakup. She said, “It’s not like anything atrocious happened between us that would result in us not being able to be friends or not being able to coparent or whatever the future may hold for us.” She added, “I think when two people are married. Even if the relationship ends or goes sour, as long as they remember that moment when it was good, they’ll always be able to be friends especially if there’s a child involved.”

Considering it didn’t sound particularly acrimonious, it was a pleasant surprise the hear the couple quickly reconciled. Dara requested that the court dismiss the divorce case. But Lilly ended up filing her own divorce papers in 2020. Luckily, the couple decided to get back together and like Lilly previously noted, she would “start the process of having another baby in 2020.”

Congrats to the whole family!
