Ubah Hassan has come under fire for her guns-blazing performance at the RHONY reunion. The Real Housewives of New York reunion opened on a rather strange note, with all the Housewives getting ready with one notable exception. Ubah planned to arrive at the reunion after her co-stars.
Ubah then admitted to feeling “very hurt” and betrayed by her co-stars. But after that intro segment, Ubah didn’t feature much in Part 1 of the reunion at all. She notably slammed Erin Lichy for stirring the pot but after that? Not much to report.
Part 2 will likely feature Ubah more prominently. But until then, some have taken issue with her participation in the opening, including Tamra Judge. As is typical when Tamra has an issue, she took to her podcast to discuss Ubah and the reunion.
Tamra says Ubah “did nothing all season”
Tamra and Teddi Mellencamp began discussing Ubah’s role at the reunion. Teddi began by saying, “I can see why Ubah has a line of hot sauces because she came in spicy.” But Tamra found herself disagreeing. She said, “Ubah’s reunion performance was giving me ‘I did nothing all season and I need to do something to save my apple.’”
While Teddi tried to get a word in, Tamra said, “It felt forced to me.” Teddi helped clarify, “It wasn’t landing right?” Tamra just repeated, “It felt forced,” then added, “She had multiple moments where she would bring some random topic up, and everybody would look at her and go, ‘Huh?’”
When Tamra and Teddi posted the clip to TikTok, fans were divided. Many agreed that Ubah hadn’t done much during the reunion or Season 14 for that matter. But plenty of other fans defended Ubah, calling her a star. Another faction of fans pointed out the hypocrisy in Tamra calling someone’s performance “forced.”
Part 2 of the Real Housewives of New York reunion airs Sunday, October 29 at 9/8c on Bravo.

It’s that time of the week again: let’s delve into our Kardashians Season 4, Episode 5 recap! The Kardashians is halfway through Season 4 and it’s a whole lot of the same from America’s famous family. Khloe Kardashian’s relationship problems were the crutch that producers, AKA Kris Jenner, fall back on. Kim Kardashian continued to show us how she does it all way better than all of us. And the rest of the sisters, Kylie Jenner aside, are mostly nonfactors.
Episode 5 picked up after a dramatic “to be continued” where Khloe confronted Kris about her cheating past. Kris had some explaining to do, but it only made her stance on Khloe’s situation with Tristan Thompson all the more confusing. Here are five takeaways from the latest episode, “It Takes A Village.”
Khloe confronts Kris

The episode picked right back up at Khloe and Kris’ intense conversation about relationships. Khloe clarified that she asked her mom to explain why she cheated to better understand her baby daddy’s trifling ways. “I think being really young and dumb is something that plays into it because you don’t really understand the consequences of your actions,” Kris said. She did admit that it was her biggest regret in life, especially considering that she and her ex-husband had such a solid friendship.
Kris’s take on cheating when you have a family came down to forgiveness, which is probably easier for the cheater to say. She wanted Khloe to consider the positive aspects of Tristan when considering a future with him, which Khloe has made it pretty clear she didn’t want at the moment. “I fell into a situation where I thought the grass was greener somewhere else and I made a huge mistake,” Kris said. “I just want Khloe to be really careful when she makes these decisions and she has to let somebody go.” Fair, but it seemed icky for Kris to suggest Khloe reconcile yet again after everything Tristan has done to her.
Kim’s soccer journey continues

Kim’s storyline in the latest two episodes might be her most boring yet. I commend her for trying to give the men in the family some attention since it is peculiar how much of a spotlight is put on the daughters. However, I’m so bored watching Kim live a “soccer mom” fantasy and talk about her love for the game. The only reprieve is Saint West’s cuteness.
Kimberly did take a moment for the sports talk to commend the people who have helped her raise her kids, like the nannies and chefs. “It takes a village to raise kids, but at the end of the day, your kids only want you,” Kim said. “I’m still learning how to be a single parent.” Relatable Kimmy strikes again, but let’s please never do two full episodes centered around soccer ever again.
Kendall’s uneventful return

Kendall Jenner hadn’t been seen on the show in a few episodes, which wasn’t necessarily a bad thing considering how boring she is. To make her more palatable, the producers paired her with Scott Disick as a filming partner. The two sort of in-laws talked about remodeling houses, something Kendall apparently wants to pursue, and anxiety. They did a sound bath together where Scott couldn’t sit still or stop talking, so he obviously carried that scene.
“I do have a lot of blessings and I am a really lucky person, but we all have sh*t to a certain degree,” Kendall said about her anxiety. I’m never going to shame someone for being open about mental health because it’s important and doesn’t discriminate. But Kendall’s approach is reminiscent of when she all wanted us to feel bad for her about having acne so we would buy Proactive, which makes me scratch my head.
Kris’s bad mom move

Scott’s back problems only continued to worsen, so he headed to a doctor to get an epidural to hopefully find relief. Kris Jenner put on her mom pants to wake up at 5 a.m. and drive with Scott to his appointment. She made a whole spectacle about being there for her daughter’s ex. “I love Scott so much and I would do anything for him,” Kris said. “He’s like my son.”
Apparently, “anything” doesn’t include sticking around for surgery. Scott had a 15-minute procedure but went under anesthesia, so he couldn’t drive himself home. Kris dipped out of the hospital after he was rolled into the operating room because she apparently had a busy morning. “Maybe I’ll see you over one of the holidays this year,” a drugged-out Scott said to Kris over the phone about her leaving him. Truly, it’s the epitome of Kris Jenner behavior and you have to laugh at it.
Khloe’s attempts to distract herself

Khloe hosted an over-the-top party for True’s 5th birthday and the whole family was there, obviously including Tristan. Khloe was glowing the entire day, immersing herself in her daughter’s world. Tristan was acting a little too couple-like with Khloe at the party, which she shrugged off. Her family, meanwhile, was plotting in the background about how to get Khloe and Tristan back together. “It’s probably really confusing to people,” Khloe said of her dynamic with Tristan. “I think other people want more and I know where I’m comfortable.”
Khloe had a girls night out with Malika Haqq who told her friend straight-up that she needed to get out of a rut. Malika is a loyal friend who always keeps it straight, so it’s no different with the current Khloe and Tristan drama. Smartly, Mailka told her friend to go out to Homegoods and Target, have a girls’ lunch, or get a massage to get out of her head. “You need to do a little bit more for you,” Mailka said. Spoken like a true bestie.
Khloe opened up about the conversation with Kris about cheating and how it affected her. “If someone did what Tristan did to my daughter, I would probably castrate them and smile doing it,” Khloe said. While Kris was trying to push them together, Khloe admitted to her friend that she was not attracted to the father of her kids anymore and couldn’t even imagine kissing him at this point. Malika did make Khloe admit that she’d never say never on reconciliation down the line, but it’s “definitely not now.” If only her family would listen to Khloe’s words loud and clear and stop with the #FreeTristan nonsense, maybe she could actually heal.
The Kardashians airs Thursdays on Hulu.

At best, Nikki and Justin have had a tumultuous relationship on 90 Day Fiancé. It’s been a series of ups and downs, and now, Nikki has called out Justin over not being sexually attracted to her.
She’s feeling undesired, and this has caused a heated argument between the two in the latest episode over him not wanting to go out with her in his home country of Moldova.
Nikki, 47, suspected that he wanted to hide her because she’s trans, while Justin, 36, said it was because Moldova is a conservative country. He feels uncomfortable with Nikki attracting so much attention for how she dresses.
90 Day Fiancé’s Nikki wonders, why stay together?
This argument opened the door to even deeper issues between the pair, including Nikki feeling like Justin is not sexually attracted to her. In ET’s exclusive clip, she bluntly asked him why he was staying with her if he wasn’t attracted to her in that way.
“But when you say, ‘Baby, I need money’ or ‘Baby, I need help,’ I’m there, right?” she asked.
Nikki further elaborated in a confessional that she felt rejected if Justin didn’t want to be with her intimately. And this rejection made her think that Justin didn’t love her or that there was someone else he was screwing when she wasn’t around.
Justin, though, keeps insisting that their relationship was more of a connection of the “soul” and the “heart” and not based on physical intimacy. Honestly, that sounds kind of like a cop-out if you ask me. And it looks like Nikki thinks so, too.
Now or never
She’s had enough. She told Justin that if things didn’t change in the next 48 hours, she would give up and return to America.
“There’s so many emotions inside that have been holding inside for so long with my relationship with Justin,” she shared. “But now it’s really hitting me in the face.”
She felt she had finally begun to see clearly and realized he was cold towards her.
She further elaborated, “He has never put me on his social media. He has never even wanted me to come here (to Moldova). It makes me feel like I am a secret. It makes me feel like he’s ashamed of me. I don’t deserve that. I deserve more.”
Guess we’ll have to see if Justin steps up or if it’s finally time for Nikki to head home.
90 Day Fiancé airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on TLC, MAX, and Discovery+.

The Paris in Love Season 2 trailer has arrived, and features some adorable moments! Are you ready for another dose of Paris Hilton? Well, Peacock’s got you covered! We’re about to get another exclusive peek into the life of everyone’s favorite heiress.
While the first season followed Paris through her fairytale wedding to Carter Reum, Season 2 will focus on a different type of love in her life — the love she has for her new son, Phoenix Reum!
Paris kicked off 2023 by announcing that she had a baby via surrogate. She kept it a secret from everyone so that she and Carter could break the news. Even her family didn’t know! So, in the first look at the new season of her reality show, we get a glimpse of the moment that Kathy Hilton met the grandson that she didn’t know she had coming.
Paris is (still) in love
“I got you a surprise,” Paris says to Kathy in the Paris in Love Season 2 trailer, speaking just as nonchalantly as ever. Moments later, Paris returns, baby in arm. He’s swaddled up like a perfect little gift, and she tells her mom, “This is your grandson, Phoenix.”
Like any mom would, Kathy immediately broke down into tears. It’s seriously so cute, and it’s a far departure from where we last left off with Kathy on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Love is seriously in the air.
Although Paris and Carter’s parenthood journey is the primary focus of Season 2, this batch of episodes won’t be all babies and bliss. Season 2 will also follow Paris as she navigates the painful realities of writing her memoir. Released earlier this year, her book detailed painful, traumatic experiences she endured as a young girl. They ranged from abuse at boarding school to her wild days of teenage rebellion.
In another tender moment in the trailer, Paris and Kathy have an emotional conversation about how Paris was afraid to tell her parents about some of the abuse she endured. It will be heavy, but it looks like Season 2 is about to give us even more insight into who Paris really is — outside of the party-girl persona she carefully crafted over the years.
Paris in Love Season 2 has eight episodes, and they all land on Peacock, on November 30th.

Brynn Whitfield showed some of her chess skills on RHONY Season 14, and it turns out it wasn’t all for show. When it comes to public perception, most Housewives have a bad track record. The “Real Housewives” title usually has a bad connotation. But Real Housewives of New York’s editors didn’t do Brynn Whitfield any favors in particular.
Since her introduction, many have seen Brynn as nothing more than ditsy and flirtatious. Since the RHONY edit didn’t include much in the way of her career, Brynn ultimately came off as pretty one-note.
Brynn has done just about everything in her power to try and combat the general perception others have of her. In these efforts, Brynn recently visited a charter school to discuss chess with some of the students.
In a TikTok from SACharterSchools, Brynn sat at the end of a table where two students were about to play chess. She said to one of the students, “Tell me what your favorite opening is. Do you want me to go first?” After the student nodded, Brynn said, “My favorite opening is King’s pawn E4.” She then held the mic up to the student.
The student said, “My favorite opening is also King’s opening E4.” The student across from her said, “My favorite opening is the Colle system. Brynn then asked the same student what their favorite defense was, to which the student said, “The Sicilian Defense.” The RHONY star replied, “Same,” and the other student said, “Same.”
Brynn said, “I think we’re triplets,” and laughed. If the TikTok was a PR move for Brynn, it worked. Commenters were all too supportive of Brynn’s chat with the kids. As the top commenter wrote, “my goodness Brynn is absolutely stunning and has the best vibes.” Negative comments were few and far between.

Married to Medicine’s Lisa Nicole Cloud is hoping to leave her tax debts in the past! Starring in a reality TV show and making bad financial decisions seem to go hand in hand. There’s a lot to be said about that topic; perhaps stardom pressures a person into giving off the appearance of wealth.
Regardless of the cause, it’s all too common to hear about reality stars facing debt. The latest star to hit the headlines was Lisa Cloud, who appeared on Married to Medicine Seasons 2-4. Lisa left the show amid a lot of drama and what she believed were untrue narratives.
Despite having a contract to return for more seasons, she decided she was done. Until Season 8, when she returned for a cameo role. Although, according to Lisa, that cameo role snowballed into a full-on “friend” of the cast. And perhaps that brief return to TV helped her pay off some dues.

RadarOnline obtained court documents confirming the IRS released a lien on Lisa and her husband, Darren Naugles. The lien first came to them in 2014 over unpaid taxes. The couple was informed that failure to pay would result in the seizing of their property. The unpaid taxes accumulated from 2011 and 2012.
According to the government, Lisa and Darren owed $72,638.22 for 2011 and $126,350.05 for 2012, giving the two a total of $198,988.27 in debt. However, the IRS has now reported the debt was paid in full. However, the liens from 2011 and 2012 wouldn’t be the only financial struggles the couple was facing.
Previously, Lisa and Darren received a separate tax lien for about $46,000 that was placed on them in 2015. Among other challenges looming over the pair, Lisa revealed she was separated from Darren for a short time. With time and counseling, Lisa said her marriage and family became stronger than ever.
Married to Medicine Season 10 premieres – without Lisa – on Sunday, November 5 at 9/8c on Bravo.
