Chrisley Knows Best Star Savannah Chrisley Says She’s “Grieving” For People “Still Alive” Before Her Parents Head To Jail

Chrisley Knows Best is/was a “reality” show that followed Todd Chrisley, his wife Julie Chrisley, and their family as they lived a life of luxury. There were Range Rovers, Louis Vuitton bags galore, and obvious trips to the plastic surgeon. With a dash of good ‘ol Christianity thrown in to level things off. But Todd and Julie weren’t livin’ la vida loca, they were livin’ la vida broka. If you were watching close enough, your curiosity might have twitched when the family changed homes approximately 837 times during their show’s run.

There will be no more fancy cars, expensive accessories, or Botox in federal prison. On the bright side, prayer in jail is encouraged! Todd and Julie’s paper empire fell thanks to being found guilty of conspiracy to commit bank fraud and conspiracy to commit tax evasion. Side-note, after claiming to be such a big Real Housewives fan, Todd didn’t take many notes on how to avoid getting caught.

Savannah Chrisley is Todd and Julie’s daughter, now the custodial figure for her minor brother and young niece. Sassy, as Savannah is commonly known, also has a podcast where she has been reflecting on her life since her parents’ conviction. During an episode of her Unlocked (maybe she needs to change the name to Locked Up) podcast, Savannah discussed processing her parents’ inevitable absence and the guilt that comes with it.

People shared the details of Savannah’s discussion with her brother Chase Chrisley and his fiancée. “Dad’s always been my go-to. That’s always been my steady. If I’m having a bad day, he knows. He’s just like, ‘What’s wrong? I know you’re struggling today,’” she explained. It is devastating we are once again watching the children suffer after parents knowingly committed financial crimes.

Savannah added, “We just have that relationship and we talk about every single thing. That’s where I can go to and just completely fall apart and him help me bring myself back up.” Supportive parents are essential in their kids’ having positive mental health. Too bad when they have to blow it because greed and gluttony are more important.

She continued, “With both mom and dad, I’ve said it’s like grieving the loss of parents that are still alive, which is the hardest thing in the world. I feel like I’ve distanced myself to prepare for what’s coming.” Right. So essentially Savannah has to shut completely down in an effort to compartmentalize her parents being guilty of a crime and headed towards significant prison sentences.

Savannah is also suffering from guilt as she continues to promote her business and attempt to function in society as her parents’ departure looms over head. “The amount of people who will come at me for posting Sassy [her make-up company] stuff. It’s like guys, I have a business I have to run,” she stated. “But personally, I feel like there’s a level of guilt associated with moving on with my life and thinking of mom and dad not being here during certain life events.”

I’m guessing Todd and Julie weren’t thinking about their kids too much when the ALLEGED cutting and pasting of fraudulent financial documents was going on. Savannah also shared she doesn’t feel like she can get married or have children while her parents are incarcerated. Todd gave her this advice. “Dad was like, ‘I may not be here in front of you, but I’m still alive. I’m still fighting. You don’t have to live a day without speaking to me,’” she said. I’m sure those words will provide comfort as the parents basically languish in a bougie day camp for criminals and she is now responsible for two human beings.

Todd and Julie were sentenced by a federal judge in November following their conviction for fraud and tax evasion. Julie was sentenced to seven years in prison, while Todd received a 12-year sentence. After serving their individual terms, they were both given a 16-month probationary period. The couple will report to jail in January 2023.

5 Memorable Times Bravo Production Had To Step In On Camera

Most of us have the ability to keep our hands to ourselves when confrontations become tense. Nine times out of 10 no one wants to catch a case that will lead to expensive court costs, facial wounds, or jail. But most of us are not in the Bravoverse, and we are well aware Bravolebrities have no qualms about showing their entire ass on national television.

What we usually don’t see are the production crew, because their job is to be behind the camera. And when we do see them, it’s usually because something has gone terribly wrong. Let’s reminisce over some times we’ve seen the BTS guys on Real Housewives, and when everything went left.

5. Real Housewives of Atlanta / The Miami Trip

Season 8 of Real Housewives of Atlanta was a journey. This was a weird time for RHOA because NeNe Leakes was only appearing as a guest and Kim Fields made a decision she would later question by joining the show. Thanks to Cynthia Bailey, viewers met Tammy McCall-Browning, who may or may not have hooked up with Shereé Whitfield’s ex-husband. On an unforgettable cast trip to Miami, Florida, Kenya Moore met some attractive men while they were out and about and proceeded to invite them back to their vacation house. It’s a small world after all because one of the gentlemen happened to be Tammy’s nephew. After an abundance of alcohol, Tammy’s nephew wasn’t a happy drunk and said some choice words to a heavily pregnant Kandi Burruss. When Kenya started getting some bad vibes, she asked him to leave. In what can only be described as a drunken rage, the nephew lashed out and knocked Tammy flat to the ground. That’s when producers and security entered the chat.

4. Real Housewives of Potomac / The Dragging

I love Real Housewives of Potomac.  The cast is amazing and hilarious. You can tell the producers have a blast editing the show. But a lot of people slept on RHOP until they put themselves on the map with one of the most brutal fights Real Housewives cameras have captured. Current star Candiace Dillard Bassett and the now-departed Monique Samuels put their producers to the test during an epic Season 5 throw down, WWE style. While at a beautiful winery in Bethesda, Maryland, Candiace and Monique felt the environment needed a petty pissing contest. After an argument reached DEFCON 4, Monique flicked Candace’s hair and Candy pushed Monique’s chest area. Wine was thrown, there was a LOT of screaming, and hair was yanked. After Monique and Candiace were pulled apart, Monique took it upon herself to circle the venue like a shark. A producer actually had to speak to Monique in an effort to prevent her from becoming a felon. Cases were initiated and court almost became a thing, but everything was dismissed. Monique left the show and Candiace remains, but her storyline continues to be trying to piss everyone off to the point of assault.

3. Real Housewives of Salt Lake City / The Sprinter Van aka Poor Kevin the Driver

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City came out of the gate hot and has yet to disappoint. Jen Shah is another breakout reality television star that should have thought about the skeletons in her closet prior to signing a Bravo contract. In Season 2, Jenny from the Cell Block was charged with conspiring to commit wire fraud and money laundering. She generously provided us a glimpse of how she might act on the prison yard when the cast took a trip to Zion, Utah. Because this van was apparently cursed, much of the RHOSLC drama went down when Kevin the Driver was just trying to earn a living and go home. He wasn’t expecting Homeland Security and… a moving Fight Club. Jen and Lisa Barlow were having a moment when Jen popped up out of her seat and charged at Lisa. A woman in production, who clearly does not get paid enough, had to bodily restrain Jen from attacking someone who I’m 110% sure has never been in a physical altercation. Naturally the other ladies enjoyed snacks whilst watching Jen’s feeble attempt to furnish insight on how often she watches Orange is the New Black.

2. Real Housewives of New Jersey / Prostitution Whore Hair Pulling

I’m kind of shocked the viewing audience doesn’t know the first names of security and behind the scenes people on Real Housewives of New Jersey. They seem to argue so much, but there’s not much else you can do when no one has a storyline and the show has based content around a fighting family for the last 837 years. This particular Season 10 episode of everyone behaving badly took place during a shopping experience that included Beverly Ann Merrill Danielle Staub, and Margaret Joseph’s platinum plait. No one likes Danielle except for Teresa Giudice, because everyone knows Tre’s decision-making chip is completely burned out. The ladies were drinking and being petty, as they do, and Teresa felt the need to incite a riot by getting Danielle all frothed up. Danielle and Marge had words and then Danielle kind of chest-bumped her and commented on Margaret’s boob job. Since we all know Marge loves her water sports, she proceeded to dump water over Danielle’s head. Everyone is wrong in this scenario. It’s like they were all raised in a shed by random outdoor wildlife. Tre tells Danielle to yank on Margaret’s already-suffering ponytail and that’s when Black Suit Guy with an Earpiece goes into action. To be honest, I’m not sure if this man was #hiredbybravo or the boutique security, but either way he had to step-in so women of a certain age  wouldn’t start throwing bows. Teresa admitted to regretting telling Danielle to go full Jersey and apologized to Marge on the Season 10 reunion calling it “a horrible judgement call.”  See also: Most of Teresa’s life.

1. Real Housewives of Atlanta / NeNe Leakes’ Ignites PTSD for People With Walk-In Closets

This one was a doozy. Production didn’t exactly get involved, but they did get attacked. NeNe Leakes’ downfall from Real Housewives of Atlanta in Season 11 was not pleasurable to watch. In NeNe’s defense, her husband was suffering from cancer, her acting career had gone on permanent hiatus, and her personal frustrations almost turned into evidence to be presented in court. During a natural hair party with the cast, NeNe became increasingly drunk melancholy. Porsha Williams (who was pregnant at the time) and Kandi Burruss felt like this would be a great time to get up and peruse NeNe’s fabulous closet. When production started to follow them, NeNe went nucking futs. NeNe yanked a cameraman away from the closet and tore his shirt. She also said, “Let’s be clear bitch, I’m going to f–k you up.” It’s unclear what happened during the tussle, but the group claims NeNe’s anger-directed behavior toward a producer was not seen in the video. Porsha said the poor man “went to the hospital” and that NeNe had to be “taken away from him.” Porsha claimed, “He clearly had scratches on his back and absolutely got choked up and had his head slammed against the wall.” Kandi added the guy “was holding his hands up” the entire time and wasn’t resisting– and “his tooth got knocked out.” NeNe was MIA as filming began for Season 12, but despite Bravo’s claim to be against all things involving violence, NeNe magically reappeared by the third episode. Season 12 was NeNe’s final bow.

Susie Evans Admits She Still Misses Her Ex, Bachelor Clayton Echard

I know some of us wish we could just forget Season 26 of the Bachelor. I’ve often described Clayton Echard as being the “Worst Bachelor EVER” — although Juan Pablo Galavis could offer serious competition for that title. Am I wrong?

Heavy. reported that the recipient of Clayton‘s Final Rose (though sadly, not the ring,) Susie Evans, apparently has no such regrets about having participated in that trainwreck of a season. In fact, she’s now admitting to actually missing her ex-boyfriend.

Even though Susie initially rejected Clayton‘s proposal at the end of the season,  the couple reunited on After the Final Rose and decided to give their relationship a go in the real world.

Things seemed to go well for a while — until they didn’t. Clayton and Susie announced their split just six months after getting back together.

The two hadn’t had much contact since their breakup but have both been very open about their feelings and their decision to take separate paths. Recently Susie opened up about their relationship, responding to questions through her Instagram Stories during an “Ask Me Anything.”

In addition to admitting that she misses the medical sales rep, Susie confessed that the two are still talking to each other. She says he’s been her “closest friend” over the past year.

When asked, “Do you miss your ex?,” the wedding videographer responded, “Meh . . . joking. Of course! He was a wonderful part of my life.” Susie also included a never before shared photo of herself with Clayton.

“He probably has a lot less grey hairs coming in now that he’s got me off his back!” Susie continued. “But really, of course I miss him, he was my closest friend for the last year, and we went through a lot together, and I know we will both have a special place in each other’s heart. And now that we are back on talking terms, I can go back to roasting him. (But you guys still can’t . . . only me)” she added.

Seeing that his ex had tagged him in the post, Clayton shared it on his own Instagram Stories. “One gray hair sprouted when I saw you tagged me in a story,” he joked, adding the crying with laughter emoji. “A warning would be nice next time.”

Though a lot of her fans seemed curious about Susie’s dating life, the Virginia native confessed that she hasn’t really had any dates with anyone new yet. “Mostly because every time it comes up, my armpits start sweating,” she joked.

When someone else asked about rumors that Susie already had a new boyfriend, she shut that down. “I feel like the truth usually finds its way out eventually and, if it doesn’t, oh well. Me having a rumored bf that doesn’t exist won’t stop me from finding a real bf . . . at least hopefully,” Miss Virginia 2020 stated.

When asked how to know when it’s “time to start dating again after a breakup,” Susie replied, “I’ve always been very generous with the amount of time I give myself before getting back out there. I think it depends on the relationship and your mental health/personal well-being at the end of your other relationship.” Solid advice.

“I don’t think it’s ever too soon though,” she added. “As long as you are healed and emotionally available, I say rip the bandaid off!”

Andy Cohen Slams James Corden For Copying His Watch What Happens Live Set

James Corden, who was in the hot seat back in October for being rude to the wait staff at a restaurant, just can’t seem to stay out of trouble these days. Now, Andy Cohen, host of Watch What Happens Live, is slamming the late-night talk show host for totally ripping off his set.

Page Six reported that on a recent podcast episode of Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi, Andy demanded that he receive his flowers for playing a role in shaping late-night tv. “I think there has been a traditional idea of what a late-night talk show is, and I would argue that Watch What Happens Live redefined what the late-night talk show is,” he said.

For those who may not be familiar with the Bravo executive’s show, guests from different Bravo shows, along with celebrities, come to Andy’s clubhouse to take shots, throw shade, gossip about their co-stars, and sometimes even spill behind-the-scenes tea no one knew. One of the unique things about Andy’s show is that his set is insanely cool.

There’s a bar (yes, with alcohol,) an intimate live studio audience, live polls, and back in the day, Andy even had his dog there with him. In fact, WWHL was a “first” for many things — and Andy is making sure we know it.

“[WWHL] was the first bar on late night [then] James Corden got a bar,” he said. “James Corden kind of wound up…” he continued before being interrupted by Bruce, who added, “Ripping off your set.”

“There you go,” Andy responded. “I am so glad we’re still going. That [the show] is, like, great, copy my set … go with God.”

Later in the interview, Andy voiced his frustration about feeling left out of the late-night talk show host community. “I don’t feel totally part of the [late night television] group and I have been on late night TV for 13 years,” he said.

“Years ago, there was a big photoshoot that Vanity Fair did of all of the late night talk show hosts and they left me out of it, but they added in James Corden who wasn’t even on the air yet and Trevor Noah who had just started.” Although he was initially left out, Andy noted that Vanity Fair’s editor later apologized to him.

Whether he’s included in photo shoots or not, Andy has revolutionized how viewers consume late-night television. Truthfully, I don’t know the last time I tuned into a late-night talk show that wasn’t WWHL. Actually, Andy’s show is probably one of the ONLY, if not the only, late-night show that I watch.

Ryan Seacrest Says It’s A “Good Idea” For CNN To Limit Andy Cohen And Anderson Cooper’s NYE Drinking

It sounds like American Idol host Ryan Seacrest is laughing alongside viewers about the reports that CNN will reportedly limit Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper’s drinking this year during their annual NYE celebration.

Andy and Anderson, who are real-life BFFs, host CNN’s annual New Year’s Eve Live celebration every year. And last year, everyone remembers how hammered Andy got LIVE on air. If you’re a longtime fan of Andy, then this news really shouldn’t come as a shock to you since Andy and his guests drink live on Watch What Happens Live. However, this ain’t Bravo, Andy. It’s CNN, and there’s gotta be a little more “professionalism” in play, I’m sure.

During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Ryan celebrated the news that Andy and Anderson would be under close watch during this year’s special.

“I don’t advocate drinking when one is on the air,” he said. “I don’t know how that started as a tradition but it’s probably a good idea [to scale back], CNN.”

I think I’d have to agree. Although it is the New Year and everyone should be celebrating, maybe party hard AFTER the ball drops? Just an idea.

Ryan joked about CNN’s broadcast, saying, “There’s some pretty respectable people or at least one, right?” He added, “I think there’s a serious journalist and then a friend of mine who has a lot of fun, but it’s probably a good idea.”

RELATED: Ryan Seacrest New Year’s Eve Broadcast Had Higher Ratings Than The One Andy Cohen Hosted

During last year’s broadcast, Andy, who was clearly inebriated, made some “funny” comments about Ryan and ABC network’s NYE broadcast. “If you look behind me, you’ll see Ryan Seacrest’s group of losers performing,” Andy said.

In response to that, Ryan stated, “[I don’t] think they would say what they said about our performers if they weren’t drinking.”

“I might send them some Casa Dragones Tequila just to tempt them while they’re on the air,” he said.

Despite the reports (and complaints) about Andy’s drunkenness on national television, the New Year’s Eve Live host is not letting the hate stop him from having fun. Although he admitted to “blacking out” and did voice his regrets about his comment’s regarding Ryan’s broadcast, he fired back at trolls, saying he wouldn’t let people “shame” him about having fun on New Year’s Eve. I don’t blame him. Mazel, Andy.

Teresa Giudice Vows To Avoid “Toxicity” In 2023 Amid Feud With Brother Joe Gorga

The feud between Teresa Giudice and her brother, Joe Gorga, is a staple on the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Joe and his wife, Melissa Gorga, didn’t attend Teresa’s nuptials to Luis “Louie” Ruelas. A rumor that Melissa allegedly cheated on Joe was dropped at the filming of the RHONJ finale just days before the wedding.

Teresa claimed shortly after her wedding that she was “fine” with her brother skipping the celebration. “I’m all about that. … I’m all about good energy, and whoever wanted to be at my wedding was there,” she stated.

Teresa told People that she is planning to avoid one thing in 2023. “Toxicity, definitely toxicity,” she stated. Good luck with that!

Louie and Teresa are planning a burning ritual. “We’re going to go to a place where there’s a little fire, and everyone’s going to have pieces of paper, and we’re going to write down some things we want to let go of in 2022, burn it and let it go, walk away holding hands, don’t look back,” Louie explained.

“And you can manifest what you want in 2023. We’ve done that before … I just want peace, love, happiness, and health,” Teresa stated. “Life is short, it’s very valuable, so you have to value the time that you have on this Earth and surround yourself with good people, good vibes, people that are happy for you.”

RHONJ viewers know that Teresa stated that Melissa blindsided her by coming on the show. Melissa claimed that Teresa was aware that she and Joe were joining the cast.

“Since my family came on the show, it was very hard for me to enjoy being on TV. It happened [in the] third season. Here I am, just getting my feet wet, enjoying it and then bam,” Teresa remarked. “I get knocked, really stabbed in the heart with my family coming on the show behind my back. The reason why I still talk about it now, and it’s been 10 years, is because it was very traumatic,” she added.

Teresa continued, “I come from a small family, and we were really close. And then for something like this to happen, it was really hard for me to deal with. I always tried to keep the peace and that’s why I kept my mouth shut for a lot of years… because my parents, they lived for me and my brother … for anything bad to happen afterwards, it’s heartbreaking.” She added, “No parents want to see their children fighting.”

“But now, unfortunately, my parents are not here anymore. So, I’m going to do what’s good for my family, good for me, good for my children,” she said. “And I just want peace. And that’s why any toxicity, [I have to] keep it out, unfortunately.”

RELATED: Luis Ruelas Gifts Cartier Bracelets To Teresa Giudice’s Daughters For Christmas

Louie has Teresa’s back in this family feud. “To see the closest people around [her] have been gas lighters and manipulators. I’ve heard it firsthand and it’s actually disgusting,” he stated. “I’m not going to take your s— anymore. You all play these games with her, right? And now she’s got a man in her life that’s not going to let you do that anymore,” Louie added.

Filming Season 13 was particularly difficult for Teresa. She explained, “You’re going to have to watch to see how it plays out, but it was a very hard season for me. Very painful. I’m just saying, it’s hard to be on a reality show with your family. It’s not something I signed up for,” she added.

While Melissa had a faint glimmer of hope that watching this season would mend the family rift, it seems like she is the only one. Teresa has no desire to reconcile with her brother, and it sounds like Louie feels the same way.

Bachelorette Alum Jordan Kimball and Wife Christina Kimball Are Their Expecting First Baby

Bachelor Nation’s Jordan Kimball and his wife Christina Kimball (formerly Creedon) are thrilled to be expecting their first child. “We’re so excited,” the Season 14 Bachelorette alum gushed in a joint interview with his wife. “We’re more in the [holiday] spirit than ever.”

Jordan proposed to Christina on Christmas Eve 2020, and the couple tied the knot in Houston, Texas, on January 15, 2022. They announced their pregnancy news to US Weekly just before Christmas.

“I don’t think I’ve ever anticipated something so much in my life,” Jordan revealed. “And with planning [and] wanting to start a family after the wedding, so much has happened in the last year and a half with the house, the wedding, now this.”

Wanting to be really sure of her pregnancy before telling Jordan, Christina admitted that she took four pregnancy tests before sharing the happy news with her husband. “I started out with, like, the dollar ones, I didn’t want to go all out, just in case,” said the certified K-6 educator. “But that said positive, so I went back to the store and got the one, the two pack that has the line one and then the digital one that says pregnant. And I was like, ‘OK, this is it!'”

Once she was certain that she was, in fact, pregnant, Christina decided to surprise her husband with his favorite dessert. “I was out of town, and she was telling me . . . she was gonna make me a carrot cake [when I got home],” Jordan explained. “That’s kind of my favorite little treat. And when I got home, she goes, ‘Oh, lemme show you this carrot cake.’ . . . I come through the door and there is a pregnancy test next to the cake.” Jordan added, “That was a very, very cute and exciting way to find out.”

RELATED: JoJo Fletcher And Jordan Rodgers Want To Start Their Family In The “Near Future”

Christina admitted to having a few pregnancy cravings. She said that she’s been craving Jamba Juice, cucumber sandwiches, baby bell cheese and glasses of milk at night. All healthy things. Good for her. When I was pregnant, all I wanted was McDonalds Sausage McMuffins, coke slushies and Chinese food.

In addition to being “very hungry” in the first months of her pregnancy, Christina has been “really tired.” She said, “When I get back from school every day, I pretty much go straight to sleep — that’s about the only pregnancy symptom that I have.”

Now the couple are looking forward to finding out the sex of their baby. They are planning for a gender reveal in the New Year. “I’m content with [either a] boy or girl,” Christina said, “[But] I can’t wait to find out.” For his part, Jordan admitted he is [not so] secretly hoping for a baby boy.

“We want to continue to have kids, [but] with this being the first, I would like for the baby to be a boy, you know, older brother protector,” Jordan explained. “But if the baby’s a girl, that’s OK too, you [just want a] happy, healthy baby. I’m ready for it all.”

Even though it’s early days, the couple is already thinking about names for their baby. If the baby is a girl, they plan to honor Christina’s grandmother. If the baby turns out to be a boy, they’ll name him after Jordan’s grandfather, using “Jordan” as the middle name.

Baby Kimball is due sometime in early summer.

Vanderpump Rules Alum Kristen Doute Is Dating Her Podcast Co-Star

Gather ‘round friends, there is surprising good news to be shared! Many of the veteran cast of Vanderpump Rules are no longer appearing on the show, but that does not stop them from desperately trying to remain relevant and staying in the media. Right Jax Taylor?

Pump Rules legend Kristen Doute was known on the show for looking for love in all the wrong places. Like, her boyfriend’s couch with his best friend. Then she looked for love in a much-younger, substance-abuse challenged DJ who she used as a sounding board to obsess over her previous boyfriend. But no one said finding your soulmate is ever easy and Kristen would probably agree.

Welp, according to Page Six, Kristen has a new beau! The Hallmark Channel is currently on standby to recreate this love affair in a nice two-hour tribute. Kristen’s podcast host Luke Broderick is the lucky man on deck. On the December 21 episode of the Sex, Love, and What Else Matters podcast, Kristen announced, “Luke and I are f—king dating, you guys.”

But Kristen says it’s not exactly breaking news. “And all of my friends who have listened to our podcast were like, ‘Yeah, it sounds really obvious,’” she added. Kristen dumped her last dude in June 2022 and wasn’t particularly “trying” to find love again. SURE, JAN!

Kristen said, “I love you [Luke] so much, but just the thought of being someone’s girlfriend again just kind of threw me through a loop because I want to be a wife and I want to be a mother.” Oh damn she just put IT ALL ON THE TABLE. “I was so tired of being a girlfriend for a couple of years and then having s—t fall apart, to be honest.” I wonder if she ever explored why her relationships alway ended in a mess. Alcohol has entered the chat!

Kristen now firmly believes in the whole opposites attract theory because this vegetarian’s new man is a hunter. Oh my. “Luke loves to hunt and fish… I am an animal advocate. I’ve been a vegetarian since I was 11 years old, and that truly was the one thing that was a little difficult for me in the beginning,” she explained. The other big difference is geography because while Kristen is in LA, Luke is safe living in Colorado.

We will have to wait and see if Luke packs up his hunting gear and moves to LA to reside with Kristen. As it is, there is probably already a strange person receiving a small salary following him around to make sure he isn’t watching the movie Drive with any of Kristen’s friends on an old sofa.

Peter Madrigal Reveals Whether Raquel Leviss Is A Better Kisser Than Katie Maloney

Peter Madrigal seems to be a peripheral character on Vanderpump Rules. Which is odd, considering that he was an original cast member when the show premiered in 2013. Duty calls though, and Peter often cites his professional responsibilities and motivation as the reason he limits his time on screen.

But the SUR manager plays hard as much as he works hard. And he certainly doesn’t deny himself the opportunities to hook up within the Pump Rules cast. Peter has hooked up with several co-stars including Stassi Schroeder, Katie Maloney, and most recently, a newly single Raquel Leviss.

Apparently, Peter will be on an active streak during Season 10, so he’s currently making the interview rounds about the new season. According to heavy., Peter confirmed that he and Raquel “went out a couple of times” during an episode of the Jamie All Over podcast.

Host Jamie Lynne asked Peter to rate the “better kisser” between his two current co-stars. “Katie was like an eternity ago, so I’m going to go with Raquel,” the SUR manager responded.

Romantic matters with Raquel did not progress. However, Peter revealed that he has been dating someone since October 2022, though he does not speak confidently about the future of that relationship.

“I’ve been seeing someone since October, you know, we are hitting that — there’s a rough patch going on, so we’ll see what happens in the future,” Peter told Jamie. “‘Cause I like her, I really like her. But I have different goals right now and she has different goals.”

Are those goals related to Vanderpump Rules? Peter will feature more prominently on Season 10, though his managerial role limits social interaction with the rest of the cast.

“The thing is I’m not going to be able to be managing SUR and involved in drama, that would be – that’s not good, you know what I mean, there always has to be someone with a level head through all the chaos involved,” Peter said. “Because I manage the restaurant, I mean how bad would that look if I’m like ‘oh, I’m dating the staff.'”

Heather Gay Reflects On “Rough Girls Trip”And Speculation About Her Black Eye

As far as dysfunctional cast trips go, the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City has pulled ahead of the pack. The mystery of Heather Gay’s black eye is unparalleled, not to mention the fact that no explanation has been provided. Despite the vague recollections and shifting commentary, the RHOSLC ladies glossed off the issue, either because no one knew what happened, or because no one was willing to speak up.

Heather seemed unwilling or unable to provide any insight, so what were the RHOSLC ladies to do? The trip continued, despite the unease. According to Bravo’s The Daily Dish the squad appeared on the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City: After Show to react to what went down in San Diego.

Not one to mince words, Lisa Barlow started off the conversation by bluntly exclaiming, “I was shocked. I was like, ‘who hit her?'”

Meredith Marks and Jen Shah were both in Heather’s room when she revealed her injury to them. Both reacted with shock and disbelief. “Obviously I was surprised,” Meredith said. “I mean, we had all been up pretty late, I don’t know 3, 4am. Left Heather’s room. I went to sleep, like, the last thing I was expecting was….” The text cut off to footage of Heather removing her sunglasses to reveal her black eye to the RHOSLC cast.

During the interview, Heather maintained the joking demeanor she had during the episode. “But you could tell. Like, it was obvious. There was no way I could hide it.” Meredith added, “A little concealer, no one would have noticed. You just needed better glam.”

“Better makeup, better glam,” Heather agreed. While Team Heather and Meredith are taking a decidedly laid-back approach, Whitney Rose and Danna Bui Negrete felt very uneasy about the black eye.

Whitney did not agree with her cousin’s reaction. She said, “I just remember feeling nauseous. Like really concerned for everyone. Like are we safe? And she was trying to be funny about it.”

Danna agreed, “We were concerned. We’re like, ‘we need to take you to the doctor.’ She’s like, ‘It’s fine, I’m fine. Don’t let this ruin your day.'” Considering how much drama had already been played out in San Diego, Heather explained that she didn’t want to ruin the rest of the trip. It’s been disappointing enough that the RHOSLC cast can only take domestic flights while filming.

“As dumb as it sounds, I just wanted to minimize it,” Heather explained. “It had been a pretty rough girls trip. I truly felt a little bit broken, a little bit beat up. Figuratively, and physically. And I just thought, just get through it. Time to make the donuts,” she stated. “Just get through this. And I just wanted to minimize it and try and salvage the trip for what it was.”

Oddly, Heather felt her cast mates brushed off the severity of the issue. She concluded, “I didn’t want anymore feigned concern about me or my eye. Nobody gave a shit, so let’s just move on.”

Danna gave a conflicting reaction. “We’re like no, we’re really concerned. We gotta see what’s going on, like what happened to you?” she recalled.

Whitney added, “And her story kept changing.” Heather indeed kept waffling between not knowing what happened and saying that no one wanted to speak about it.

“She did allude to that,” Whitney said of her cousin. “She goes, ‘Well people know. People know what happened. There’s witnesses.’ And then she looked at me and I go, ‘Heather‘ once again, just me being caring to Heather. ‘I’m like Heather, are you ok?’ and she goes, ‘Whatever you do, if you get a knock on your door at 4am, don’t answer it.'”

Whitney found Heather’s vague accusations potentially damaging to the group. She explained, “And then she started pulling that it could be anyone. And I didn’t like that because that puts a lot of people’s jobs and a lot of people’s futures at risk.”

Lisa also thought Heather should have been more direct. And after all the fighting at the Marilyn Monroe dinner, the Vida Tequila founder thought Heather was unnecessarily playing up the incident.

“The fact that Heather’s being so coy about this, and not just flat out saying what happened to her, we would all stop talking about this,” she opined. “I’m like, ‘Heather do you need more attention? Is this a diversion from last night’s conversation?”

Dancing With The Stars Judge Derek Hough And Hayley Erbert Were Involved In A “Scary” Car Accident

Season 31 of Dancing with the Stars was phenomenal. TikTok star Charli D’Amelio and returning pro Mark Ballas danced their way to mirrorball glory. Long-time judge Len Goodman stunned the ballroom by announcing his retirement. And dance pro Cheryl Burke also departed the show.

In June 2022, judge (and former pro dancer) Derek Hough popped the question to girlfriend Hayley Erbert. Of course, Hayley accepted.

People reported that on December 12, 2022, the duo was involved in a car accident. Hayley and Derek shared the details in a video on Instagram on December 23, 2022. “Derek and I got into a pretty scary car accident in the mountains. Our accident involved a steep hill, icy roads, a tree, and worst of all, the fear that we would slide off the mountain,” Hayley captioned the video, which showed the damage to the car and their stint at the emergency room. They even documented Hayley getting stitches in her forehead.

Derek wrote in the comments, “The scariest part was that Hayley doesn’t remember anything. She was dazed afterwards, being cheerful saying we should keep going to dinner as blood ran down her face.” He continued, “That really scared me.” Derek added that Hayley finally “came to” about 20 minutes after the accident. Thankfully, first responders were there.

After being examined at the hospital, the couple bought some snacks to eat after their terrifying experience. Hayley’s difficulty eating her candy was “one of the saddest things about tonight.”

“It’s taken me a very long time to chew it ’cause it hurts ’cause of this area. Bummer,” she said, gesturing to the stitches in her forehead. Poor Hayley! That girl deserves all the candy she wants.

The couple is “grateful” for several reasons. “First, that there were no other people involved. Second, the quick response from paramedics,” Hayley wrote in the caption. “And lastly, that we are both okay and that I only walked away a little banged up, a swollen face, and four stitches above my eyebrow.”

She added, “Now, more than ever, we realize how fragile life is and how important it is to love those around you. We hope that everyone has a safe, healthy, and happy holiday season.”

Derek and Hayley’s DWTS family filled the comments with love and support. “Omfg guys I’m so glad you both are ok!!! Thank god!” Peta Murgatroyd wrote. Pro Emma Slater posted, “I’m so sorry Hayley. happy you’re ok. Rest.”

Cheryl said, “Omg! Thank God you’re both okay. Sending you love and a fast recovery. You’ll be able to chew candy in no time.” DWTS pro Alan Bersten wrote, “Glad you and @derekhough are ok,” along with a praying hands emoji.

We are sending Hayley our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

U.S. Government Requests Jen Shah Get 10 Years In Prison For Her Role In Nationwide Telemarketing Scheme

As Jen Shah’s sentencing draws closer, more information about her role in this massive nationwide telemarketing scheme is finally being revealed. By now, we’ve all heard and seen Jen’s arrest on the second season of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City when NYPD stormed the scene with their bulletproof vests looking for Jen. Jen left the scene in a hurry before they arrived.

But we’ve all seen that you can’t run from the law for too long. Jen was taken into custody on the side of the road and eventually slapped with money laundering and conspiracy to commit wire fraud accusations. Initially, Jen declared and boasted about her innocence. She cried on camera, brought up tragic incidents like her mother emptying her savings account for her to secure a legal team, and so much more. For the most part, fans didn’t buy it, not even for a second. But jeez, the way she maintained her innocence, I almost thought I could be wrong.

Anyway, she eventually pleaded guilty, and her sentencing date was set. But it kept getting pushed back because of schedule conflicts and the holiday season. As January 6th approaches, the United States government has finally submitted its request for Jen’s prison sentence. According to court documents obtained by People, the government requested Jen receive 120 months of imprisonment, or a total of 10 years.

And if that wasn’t shocking enough, the government detailed its reasons why– and the statements are chilling. The documents detail that Jen “took a series of increasingly extravagant steps to conceal her criminal conduct from the authorities” and “engaged in a years-long, comprehensive effort to hide her continued role in the scheme.”

It also noted, “For nearly a decade, the defendant was an integral leader of a wide-ranging, nationwide telemarketing fraud scheme that victimized thousands of innocent people. Many of those people were elderly or vulnerable.”

WOW. This is the first time RHOSLC viewers are really being given insight into what went down behind the scenes. From the statement itself, Jen was a “leader” in this scheme, and for that, I can’t imagine the judge being lenient. Jen asked for three years just before this request came out.

RELATED: Jen Shah’s Husband Sharrieff Shah Sr. Pleads With Judge For Lenient Sentence For His Wife

“Many of those people suffered significant financial hardship and damage. At the defendant’s direction, victims were defrauded over and over again until they had nothing left. She and her co-conspirators persisted in their conduct until the victims’ bank accounts were empty, their credit cards were at their limits, and there was nothing more to take,” the documents read.

Now hearing that the government is calling Jen “the most culpable person charged in this case” makes her and her declarations of innocence on TV look foolish. The documents also state that Jen’s “belated expressions of remorse ring hollow” in reference to the campaign she went on to convince the world she was innocent.

The government added that Jen went “on a public offensive against the charges and tried to profit off the charges by selling ‘Justice for Jen’ merchandise,” which should be considered in her sentencing.

From the sounds of it, Jen is in for a rude awakening. Not only did she think she’d get out of this, she thought she’d be able to convince the world, the government, and a jury of her innocence. The only good thing about this is that the victims will finally get the justice they deserve. And for Jen, I truly hope it was worth it. The three seasons of a reality show in which you showcased your faux designer bags and $80,000 parties- all of which were likely purchased with stolen money. After this, we’ll probably never see Jen Shah on our tv screens again, and I know most people are ecstatic about that.

TELL US – WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUEST FOR 10 YEARS? DO YOU THINK THAT’S SUFFICIENT?
