Kailyn Lowry Will Celebrate Christmas For The First Time In Five Years

Teen Mom alum Kailyn Lowry plans to celebrate Christmas for the first time in five years. 

“We haven’t celebrated Christmas in five or more years. Between years of fighting with my kids’ dads over holidays and my kids being fortunate with ‘things’ all year I gave up Christmas,” wrote the 31-year-old mom on Instagram. 

“Their dads have big families and lots of cousins, so it just feels like the best option. I guess things will look a little different this year.”

Kailyn announced her plans to switch things up this year while sharing snippets of her three eldest sons and her boyfriend, Elijah Scott, admiring their Christmas tree at home. 

This isn’t the first time that Kailyn discusses her approach to the holidays with fans. 

Kailyn Has Explained Her Christmas Choice Several Times

Back in 2021, Kailyn said that she doesn’t buy her kids Christmas presents in an Instagram Q&A, according to The Daily Mail.

When asked whether she gets her dogs presents, she responded, “I don’t even get my kids Christmas presents.” 

This revelation upset some Instagram viewers. 

“Some of you are curious and some of you are really upset about this. Just know my kids are not going without. Let them have something they only do at their dads,” added Kailyn. 

She also said that instead of gifts, she brings all her kids on a family vacation every summer. 

“Every time I got the kids for Christmas my other family members were on opposite years with their families/kids & we started doing big vacations about 5 years ago,” she said. 

“So Christmas can be with their dads & they don’t have to worry about splitting it.” 

Kailyn also had the same conversation on TikTok. 

“The most important reason I gave up Christmas was for my kids,” she told fans. 

“It just constantly felt like it was an argument about who’s gonna get the kids, who’s gonna keep them, who’s gonna have Christmas Eve, who’s gonna have Christmas Day,” she said. 

“And even though it’s in the custody order, we all want our kids for the holiday, I get it.”

She added that she wants her kids to experience Christmas with their dads since they do fun things for the holidays and all have really big families. 

The Teen Mom Alum Asked Her Followers For Gift Ideas

Kailyn is reportedly now a mom of 7. She shares 13-year-old Isaac with ex Jo Rivera, 10-year-old Lincoln with ex-husband Javi Marroquin, sons Lux, 5, and Creed, 2, with her ex Chris Lopez. 

This year, she revealed the arrival of her son Rio, her first baby with boyfriend Elijah. Shortly after, she announced that she was pregnant with twins. 

While the couple hasn’t publicly commented on the twins’ arrival, multiple outlets reported their birth in November. 

According to The U.S. Sun, Kailyn asked her Instagram followers for gift ideas ahead of this year’s holiday season. “I told the kids we would do Christmas this year!” she shared in an Instagram Story. “Doing stockings – no big gifts – send all practical/meaningful stocking stuffers.”

New Jeannie Mai and Jeezy Divorce Update Alludes to Cheating

Jeannie Mai has just responded to her estranged husband Jeezy’s petition for divorce. TMZ reports that Jeannie’s actions will have a huge effect on their prenup and how the former couple’s assets could be shared out.

According to legal documents, TMZ said that Jeannie had made claims about Jeezy’s conduct during their marriage. Jeannie’s lawyer wrote that the rapper’s wife reserved the right to amend Jeezy’s counterclaim to add other grounds for divorce. This basically means that Jeannie could legally add new reasons for the couple’s marriage breaking down.  

Jeannie Mai’s Lawyer Said She Doesn’t Want to Say More Right Now

However, her lawyer went on to write that Jeannie does not want to specify her reasons at this time. She is still hoping that the matter can be resolved without having to disclose anything publicly. Later in the document, Jeannie’s lawyer recommended that the court enforces Paragraph 8 of their prenuptial agreement. This paragraph is related to any romantic or emotional relationship that either party got involved in. This includes any suggestive communication made with a third party over texts, DMs or social media — and it could result in a significant financial penalty for what Jeannie’s lawyer called the adulterous party.

However, the document did not make any direct accusations about Jeezy. Just a day earlier, Jeezy came out with a statement about Jeannie. He made claims about the way Jeannie was acting regarding the couple’s daughter, Monaco, amid the divorce proceedings. Page Six reported that the “Put On” rapper had filed a motion requesting a temporary hearing. This was regarding custody of the couple’s almost two-year-old daughter, who they welcomed in January 2022.

Jeezy Has Been Making Claims About Custody Arrangements

Jeezy claimed in court documents that since he filed for divorce this September, Monaco had been temporarily residing in Los Angeles with Jeannie.He went on to claim that he and Jeannie had been working to address custodial arrangements on an informal basis. While they had agreed upon a temporary visitation schedule, Jeezy’s legal team felt this informal approach was unfeasible going forward.

Jeezy said in the motion that the lack of consistency and stability in their parenting schedule was becoming stressful for Monaco. The 46-year-old added that the arrangement was causing unnecessary tension and confusion. The rapper also stated that he did not believe that Jeannie was acting maliciously, but that she had acted as a gatekeeper when it came to sharing parenting time with Jeezy.

Shortly after the divorce filing, a source talked to Page Six about how Jeannie had been coping. At that time, Jeannie still wanted her marriage to work and wanted her family to be one solid unit. The source added that Jeannie still deeply loves Jeezy, and that getting divorced wasn’t part of the plan for her.

However, in Jeezy’s filing, he stated that the marriage is irretrievably broken, with no hope of reconciliation. Right before the filing was made public, he posted on Instagram that he was too focused on who he was becoming to focus on who’s not coming with him.

Are Liz and Big Ed Getting a Divorce?

Are Ed Brown – known as “Big Ed” – and Elizabeth “Liz” Woods getting a divorce? Ever since meeting on the first season of 90 Day: The Single Life, the on-again off-again couple appeared on several spin-offs and became known for their tumultuous relationship. Fans are now suspecting that the couple has split up. 

Why Fans Believe It’s Over for Liz and Big Ed

First, there’s the fact that Ed has been spotted with another woman. He attended a sports game in San Diego with a woman other than his wife. He also shared pictures with said woman on Instagram – though they’ve now been deleted, reports Reality Tea

Liz has also shared several Instagram Stories that feature a mystery man. While she only shared clips of the man’s hands, fans grew suspicious when they noticed that it didn’t look like Ed’s hands. Ed and Liz have not posted pictures with each other lately, which has fueled the speculation of a possible break-up.

There’s also the fact that the two don’t seem to be living in the same city right now. While Ed and Liz reportedly got married in Arkansas, where Ed still has a permanent residence, Liz seems to be living in California and recently attended The Teddy Ball in La Jolla, California – without Ed. 

A Tumultuous Romance

The couple is no stranger to breaking up. Their love story was featured on 90 Day: The Single Life, which aired in 2021 and follows past 90 Day cast members as they look for love. “At one point I felt like if I didn’t go at his pace, I was gonna lose him,” Liz said on an episode of 90 Day Bares All. “That he wouldn’t want me anymore, so I would cave in and go at his speed.”

They broke up for the first time a few months later. “The timing wasn’t right and it was rushed — we both rushed things,” Big Ed told People at the time. “I wasn’t a good boyfriend. I didn’t treat Liz like she deserved to be treated,” he added. 

When Big Ed’s dog Teddy passed away, Liz reached out and they rekindled their romance, according to People. Their reconciliation was featured on season two of 90 Day: The Single Life. In November 2021, they got engaged. 

In 2022, Liz and Ed were featured on 90 Day: Happily Ever After, which put their explosive fights on display. In 2023, after breaking up and getting back together a few more times, they appeared on 90 Day: The Last Resort – still engaged. The spin-off involved  a relationship boot camp.

According to Insider, the couple tied the knot in August 2023. They have not confirmed the status of their relationship since rumors of a split started swirling again. 

Kacey Musgraves and Boyfriend Break Up

Country singer Kacey Musgraves’ relationship with boyfriend Cole Schafer has come to an end, according to Page Six. They were the first to report that the couple called it quits on their romance after two years together.

It also appears that Kacey and Cole have stopped following each other on Instagram, seemingly confirming that they are no longer in each others’ lives. The 35-year-old singer was first spotted with Cole, who is 6 years younger than her, in June 2021, as reported by PEOPLE.

The news emerged around a year after Kacey announced her divorce from singer-songwriter Ruston Kelly. Just a few days after their first public outing, Kacey and Cole officially debuted their relationship on social media.

Kacey told The New York Times that they first met after locking eyes in a crowded restaurant. She told the outlet that she loved that Cole didn’t know who she was. Over the next two years, Kacey would often gush about her poet boyfriend online.

Kacey Unfollowed Cole On Instagram

She posted a particularly sweet birthday message to Cole in January, in which she called him the brightest flame in the world. She went on to say that she couldn’t wait to see what the next year would bring.

However, it first seemed like things were not the same between Kacey and Cole about a month ago. Kacey had posted so much about Cole throughout their relationship, so when fans noticed that she unfollowed Cole on Instagram, they began speculating about a breakup.

Page Six also reported that they had been told that Kacey had started posting cryptic messages on her Instagram Stories. However, Kacey has apparently not completely removed Cole’s presence from her life. Although she has unfollowed him, she has not deleted photos of Cole from her feed.

Likewise, Cole himself has not removed Kacey from his Instagram posts. Some fans responded to the Page Six story by mocking Cole’s occupation. The poet, who goes by the pen name January Black, was even accused of using Kacey for her money.

Both Kacey and Cole were asked for comments by media outlets, but have so far chosen not to respond.

Kacey Went Through a Public Divorce In the Past

When the Golden Hour singer parted ways with her ex-husband, Ruston, they were quick to address the situation publicly. They met at the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville in 2016 before marrying the following year and getting divorced in July 2020. In a joint public statement, they said that they had made the painful decision to part together.

They added that it was a healthy decision after a very long period of trying the best they could.

Farrah Abraham has a new boyfriend – and she’s made him sign an NDA, according to TMZ

The Teen Mom alum recently shared clips from a Thanksgiving vacation on Instagram, where she is seen holding hands on the beach with her new man. Even though Farrah’s Instagram Reel is set to the tune of Doja Cat’s “I wanna show you off,” the identity of her love interest remains a mystery – his face is not visible in the posts. 

Who is Farrah’s New Man?

Farrah spoke to TMZ and confirmed the romance started in 2021 on OF but got serious this year after matching on a dating app. 

She told the outlet that she’s enjoying getting to know her man and that she’s changed her dating habits after working with a coach. In an attempt to stay drama-free and avoid getting used for clout, she has allegedly made her boyfriend sign a non-disclosure agreement. 

She added that she isn’t too worried because he’s not a public figure. She told TMZ that they are similar in age and that he works in tech, business sales and marketing. She added that he purchased a second place near where she lives after the relationship got more serious in late September. 

She’s reportedly waiting until winter break to introduce him to her family and says she is grateful they got to know each other as friends before dating. 

Farrah’s Rocky Dating History

Last year, Farrah dated guitarist Mack Lovat and they broke up hours after they made their relationship public, per TMZ. 

“Sometimes people turn into monsters with press, happy I found out now,” she told the outlet. 

In 2018, Farrah dated stuntman Aden Stay and gushed about him in an interview with PEOPLE. 

“When you find someone and you have that connection, I think [that] is so rare,” she told PEOPLE. “He’s pretty amazing — hopefully he will ‘stay’ around.”

A few days after the interview, she ended her romance with him. 

“I need to watch whom I date as many men target me for my success. I’m focused on work right now between TV and film projects,” she said in a statement to PEOPLE.

Prior to that relationship, she was involved with on-again off-again boyfriend Simon Saran for over two years. 

Their relationship was the first to be documented on Teen Mom OG since Farrah’s relationship with high-school boyfriend Derek Underwood. 

Derek tragically passed away two months before their daughter Sophia was born. 

Farrah has gone through many ups and downs since her 16 and Pregnant debut. 

It’s Been a Challenging Couple of Years for Farrah

In January 2022, the reality TV star was arrested for allegedly slapping a security guard. She told TMZ that the alleged altercation deeply affected her emotional well-being.

A couple of months later, she announced on Instagram that she was seeking treatment to address her mental health struggles. In October 2023, InTouch confirmed that Farrah was sentenced to 18 months of probation following the incident. 

Farrah previously had to complete two years of probation after another alleged altercation with a security guard in 2018, per TMZ. 

T.I. Got Into a Physical Altercation With His Son

T.I. and his family went to watch the New York Jets vs. the Atlanta Falcons game. They had a suite at the Mercedes-Benz stadium in Georgia, and a fight broke out between T.I. and his eldest son, King.

King Made Claims About His Childhood

Page Six reported that the 19-year-old made the argument public by live-streaming it on Instagram. The fight supposedly started out as just some harmless teasing, but things took a turn for the worse as the video went on.

Apparently, King was trying to claim that he’d faced hardships in his childhood. At one point, he shared that he’d had to live among cockroaches. T.I. reportedly scoffed at his son’s claims though and told him that he’d never woken up with a roach on his face nor had one in his ear. He then accused him of growing up with a silver spoon in his mouth.

King defended himself by saying that he’d never eaten with his parents a day in his life. His parents didn’t agree with him. According to Page Six, T.I.’s wife Tameka claimed that their son used to go over to his grandmother’s home so that he could suck a pacifier over there until he was 12. But King gave his own reason for why he used to go to his grandma’s.

He explained that he didn’t want to be in the gates of his parents’ mansion. He wanted to be outside in the neighborhood instead. He then accused his parents of lying and insisted that they were trying to hide the real truth behind his upbringing.

Things Escalated and T.I. Put King In a Headlock

Page Six reports that, at one point in the argument, Tameka looked like she was trying to calm things down by placing her hands on her son’s chest and asking him to be quiet. King, in turn, asked his mother why she was allowing her husband to play him like that. Tameka answered that T.I. was only joking. Then, things reached a boiling point.

According to a report by TMZ, King informed both his parents and followers that he could back up his claims by screaming that he was known for standing on business. T.I. told his son that he was not only embarrassing the family, but that he was also embarrassing himself. The rapper then put King in a headlock and told him, “Boy you can’t do nothing with me … ain’t shit you can do with me.”

After that, other people could be heard in the background reportedly asking King to stop recording just before the video ended.

Later on, King shared some Instagram stories where he appeared to be throwing shade at his dad, He posted that he couldn’t be played with now that he was a grown man. In 2020, King was filmed getting into a full-on physical fight in a bathroom with another teenager around his age.

Just a few weeks ago, he made the headlines for making some pretty outrageous claims about his childhood, saying that he only lived in TI and Tiny’s house when they needed him to film their reality show.

Dolly Parton Reveals Why She Never Had Kids

Dolly Parton and her husband, Carl Dean, never had children of their own. It turns out, Dolly’s decision not to have kids has nothing to do with growing up poor in a one-room cabin with 11 siblings.

Dolly once claimed that she regretted not having children and confessed that she and Carl “just assumed” they would have kids. She also admitted they “weren’t doing anything to stop it.” The couple even had baby names picked out.

Dolly has also had a significant influence over her younger siblings. In an interview with Billboard magazine, she revealed that five of her younger siblings lived with her and Carl for many years, but having kids of their own was not meant to be.

Why Dolly Feels She Wasn’t Meant to Have Kids

Eventually, Dolly grew to understand something. She felt that a higher power decided that having kids was not in the cards for her, she explained in an interview with Today. At the time of the interview, Dolly was 71 years old. She said that “God has a plan for everything” and felt that it was probably God’s plan for her not to have kids. Dolly added that she thought it was because “everybody’s kids” could be hers. “They are now,” she added.

Dolly has remained close to all her younger siblings throughout the years. She’s got a great relationship with her nieces and nephews, too. That said, she admitted that enjoying life with her husband without being burdened by extra responsibility was nice. “Now that Carl and I are older, we often say, ‘aren’t you glad we didn’t have kids?” she shared.

She also told Today that she felt like she was going through her “second childhood” in her late 60s and early 70s. She added that it doesn’t mean she’s childish, just that kids are drawn to her. Dolly believes it’s because of her high-pitched voice and even joked that she looks “like Mother Goose or one of those over-exaggerated characters” and that kids relate to that.

The Meaning Behind “I Believe In You”

The country star discussed all of this while promoting her children’s album, “I Believe In You,” on the Today show. Dolly has always strived to help children. For example, Dolly started the Imagination Library to give books to young kids. In 2017, the Imagination Library reached a huge milestone by giving away its 100 millionth book.

Dolly revealed that she titled her children’s album “I Believe In You” because many of the books she gives away through the Imagination Library have similar themes. Dolly’s own favorite book as a child was “The Little Engine That Could,” which is one of the first books that Imagination Library program participants receive. The positive messages in her songs or the books she gives away are things that kids need to hear, she continued.

Fans love Dolly for her candidness, authenticity and her sometimes self-deprecating sense of humor. She might like to tease herself about how she looks and the cosmetic work she’s done, but Dolly revealed to Billboard that she still feels like the same girl who first came to Nashville in 1964. She has always considered herself a “working woman” and never thought of herself as a big star.

She told Billboard that she’s “lived a lot and done a lot” and has been around so long that many of her fans now look at her like another member of their family.

Beyoncé Speaks Out On Blue Ivy

Beyoncé shared some pretty raw feelings about her daughter in her new concert film. In the movie, which follows the R&B singer’s Renaissance World Tour, Beyoncé opened up about Blue Ivy and the criticism she has faced online.  

The 11-year-old experienced some backlash after appearing alongside her mother on several stops of her tour. Beyoncé revealed that Blue Ivy had read some negative comments about herself — some people mocked her dance moves after her first surprise appearance onstage in Paris last May.

How Blue Ivy Reacted to Online Critics

Beyoncé made sure to mention the positive spin her daughter put on her naysayers’ reactions. She said that Blue Ivy was determined to prove any critics wrong about her and decided to use the criticism as an opportunity to work harder on her dancing skills.

Beyoncé also revealed how she feels about going on tour with her daughter. She confessed that the idea of Blue Ivy joining her onstage was not always something that she was very happy about. Apparently, the initial plan was for her daughter to make just one appearance at the start of the tour — and even that was something that Beyoncé allegedly wasn’t completely sold on.

Beyoncé Initially Didn’t Want Blue Ivy to Perform

The Grammy winner mentioned that performing live in front of thousands of people was no place for such a young kid. She even claimed that she almost passed out the first time her daughter joined her during a performance.

According to The New York Times, Blue Ivy told her mom that she was ready to perform, but Beyoncé initially said no. However, over the next few months, Blue Ivy showed her mom just how much she had improved on her dancing as the tour went on.

Her progress did not go unnoticed by fans, and, in September, a TikTok compilation illustrated just how far she had come. In her early performances, Blue Ivy appeared pretty timid and shy. In a later show in Houston, she looked completely different and much more confident.

Blue Ivy didn’t just change on stage. In July, her grandmother, Tina Knowles-Lawson, told PEOPLE that Blue Ivy’s confidence had “soared to the sky”. This transformation apparently started after her very first performance with her mom. Tina explained that her granddaughter had really only been given a week to prepare for her debut show, and, since then, Tina said that Blue Ivy had just gotten better and better. She added that she couldn’t be more proud of Blue Ivy after seeing how hard she had been working.

Jay Z Is a Proud Dad

Although Beyoncé might have had her doubts at first, it seems like the whole family now loves to see Blue Ivy performing for the world. Her dad, Jay Z, has also been gushing about how proud he was to see his daughter and wife perform together. He told CBS Mornings’ Gayle King that he still got goosebumps seeing Blue Ivy walk onstage.

Paris Hilton and her husband, Carter Reum, are having an especially Happy Thanksgiving — they just announced that they’ve welcomed their second baby, a girl named London.

Paris Announced Her Baby News On Instagram

Paris’s celebrity friends are celebrating London’s arrival. Kris Jenner, Demi Lovato, and London-born supermodel Naomi Campbell all jumped online to congratulate Paris and Carter. Paris and Carter’s little boy, Phoenix, got in on the Thanksgiving surprise too.

In a video uploaded to TikTok, Paris mentions the arrival of a new baby. Phoenix is seen on camera. Paris asks him how excited he is for his baby sister to come home. She tells her son, “I love you, angel.” Then, she asks, “Are you the big brother today?” and adds, “You’re the big brother now?”. Paris also asks Phoenix if he is going to watch after his sister.

Paris also shared another moment on TikTok, this time telling her niece and nephew that she has two babies now. “You guys excited for your new cousin?” she asks.

Paris Was Secretive About Her First Baby Too

The news comes as a surprise for many fans, as Paris and Carter just welcomed Phoenix in January 2023. He was born via a surrogate. Paris announced the arrival of the baby boy on Instagram last January, by posting a photo showing a baby’s hand wrapped around her thumb. “You are already loved beyond words,” read the caption.

Back in September, Paris was teasing her sister Nicky about possibly having a daughter in the near future. “I’m sure it’s very soon… and you’re being secretive and not telling us,” Nicky responded. Nicky is referring to the fact that Paris and Carter were secretive about Phoenix’s arrival.

The couple discussed why on their reality show, “Paris in Love.” Carter admitted that he wanted to share the news about Phoenix with everyone. “I don’t think it ever hit me we weren’t going to tell anyone,” he said.

Paris was the one who wanted to keep the pregnancy a secret. “She’s had to go through life having to protect herself,” added Carter. “I was gonna do everything I could to be a good teammate.”

Tiffany Haddish Arrested for DUI After Falling Asleep at The Wheel

Fayette County Sheriff’s Office

Tiffany Haddish was arrested early Friday morning for an alleged DUI after falling asleep at the wheel. According to TMZ, police arrested Tiffany after they got a call about a vehicle stopped in the middle of Beverly Drive – the actress was allegedly found slumped over the wheel while the car was running. She wasn’t involved in an accident. 

Tiffany had performed hours earlier at The Laugh Factory in West Hollywood for the comedy club’s annual Thanksgiving event. The Los Angeles Times reports that while Tiffany was still in custody Friday morning, police said that she would be released within several hours. 

This Is Tiffany’s Second DUI-Related Incident 

This is the comedian’s second DUI. In January 2022, she was arrested in Peachtree City, Georgia. According to The Hollywood Reporter, police received a call at about 2:30 a.m. about a driver asleep at the wheel. Tiffany was detained and charged with driving under the influence. She later posted $1,666 bond and was released from the Fayette County Jail, per the LA Times. The “Girl’s Night” start was reportedly filming a movie in the area at the time. 

She talked about the incident on“The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” a few weeks later and made jokes about it. “I can say this Jimmy, I’ve been praying to God to send me a new man, a good man,” she said. “And God went ahead and sent me four in a uniform. I wasn’t expecting it.”

“I got a really great lawyer and we’re gonna work it out. And I’ve got to get my asking of things to God a little better,” she added. TMZ reports that she is due in court on December 4 for that case. 

Her Comments Sparked Controversy 

At the time, Tiffany received support from fans after the incident made the headlines – she was recovering from a public breakup with Common and grieving the loss of her grandmother and her friend Bob Saget. 

Her comments on “The Tonight Show” did offend some viewers. “Drunk driving is no joke. We are grateful no one was injured or killed, and we hope going forward she will use her humor and celebrity to save lives and prevent injuries by communicating that drunk and drugged driving are 100% preventable, 100% of the time,” tweeted the non-profit organization Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD).
