Miranda Lambert is a country music star beloved by many. However, she has recently gone through some events that have fans concerned about her. Her recent outbursts have people scratching their heads, as well.
In her over-20-year career, Miranda has released and sold millions of records in the USA and won a variety of awards for her music. While she’s generally been very popular with fans, her recent encounters with fans have been concerning.
For example, according to Parade, she stopped a recent concert to scold fans for not giving her their full attention and visiting with each other. She also yelled at a few fans who were fighting with each other in the crowd.
After her outbursts were posted online, many people called her out for being entitled. While there’s no way to know the root cause of this issue, her recent difficulties with her new husband could be to blame.
Miranda married a former NYC cop named Brendan McLoughlin in 2019, despite only knowing him for a few months. She met him while he was working security for “Good Morning America” when she was a guest. They soon began dating and got married quickly after.
Miranda’s Relationship Is Falling Apart
While everything has been going well for the pair, a recent event at Miranda’s bar in Nashville seemed to interfere with their happy life. In June 2024, Brendan was caught on camera dancing and flirting with a woman. In the video shared by Country 92.9, they could be seen whispering to one another, hugging, and otherwise engaging in unquestionable behavior for a married man.
The woman dancing with Brendan has spoken out and said it wasn’t appropriate and he didn’t cross any lines. Still, it’s not a good look.
While the couple is trying to move past the event, In Touch explained that Miranda is reportedly “constantly worried” about what her husband is doing when her back is turned. She feels humiliated by the whole ordeal. She doesn’t want to end the marriage, but Brendan is reportedly not in her good graces.
However, these recent outbursts aren’t the only run-ins that Miranda has had with fans. In 2023, Page Six exposed her questionable concern behavior.
Miranda was seen on video popping a beach ball that members of the audience were hitting back and forth. She seemed annoyed that they were having fun with it as opposed to devoting their full attention to her music.
This took place just after she had scolded people for taking a selfie during the concert. These events led to some people on social media labeling her as the “Grinch of country music”.
Here’s hoping Miranda is able to deal with her issues and improve her relationship with her fans going forward.
Bill Rancic is best known as the first winner of The Apprentice. For the last decade, he has been out of the spotlight. As he gets ready to return, fans want to understand why he disappeared in the first place. The answer is sweet.
Bill won The Apprentice in 2004, becoming the first winner of the reality series. He quickly rose to fame, and he landed his own reality TV series on E! with his wife Giuliana. That series, Giuliana & Bill, followed the two navigating marriage and fertility issues. It touched on some heartbreaking and difficult topics, including Giuliana fighting breast cancer.
The series came to an end in 2014, and Bill stepped back from the public eye completely. It was like he just disappeared.
There were a couple of reasons for Bill to step back from the public eye. The first was to raise his son, Duke, with Giuliana. Fans got to see the struggle to conceive Duke, and now they get to know that he was an active and hands-on dad.
He also focused on his restaurant chain, RPM. After all, Bill was a businessman when fans initially met him on reality TV in 2004. His restaurant chain now has several locations across the country, and he knew that they needed more of his focus and not the focus of TV crews.
The great news for those who followed the married couple is that they are still together. The two have just moved back to Chicago after living on the West Coast for many years, and they are surrounded by Bill’s family. Giuliana’s family lives in DC, making the trip to see them much easier now that they are in Chicago.
Bill Rancic Is Returning to TV
It’s taken 10 years, but the entrepreneur is back on our screens. He shared that it was just the right time. His son is now 11, and it’s time for Bill to focus on his TV career again. Well, it’s not TV this time. He is coming back with a podcast, making sure people can listen while on the go. Reach TV is bringing the podcast to airports across the country.
He’s created the podcastDollar Bill with Bill Rancic, which debuted on July 22. As the title suggests, it is a financial literacy podcast, with interviews with Howie Mandel, Dennis Quaid, and many other celebrities and people within the financial literacy space to share their advice, tips, and insights.
This is an important topic for Bill, who taught himself about business and financial matters. He has always been interested in taking control of one’s financial future, but he admits that he’s a novice like many of his listeners. This is why having experts on the podcast is so important.
The podcast all started because friends thought that it would be great for him to teach financial literacy, something that is missing from schools. As he looked for a way back into showbiz, this did seem like the perfect opportunity. Fans can listen to the podcast on Spotify, iTunes, and anywhere they usually listen to their podcasts.

Is Travis Barker really the right guy for Kourtney? Her former nanny has a few things to say about Kourtney’s new love interest and it’s pretty interesting stuff.
Although the two have only been together a short while, they’re already moving forward pretty fast in their relationship. This could be a big deal after all. Or is it?
Here’s what Kourtney’s nanny revealed about her latest choice of partner.
Travis Is Not Her Style
First of all, Kourtney’s nanny claims that Travis isn’t actually her style at all. At least, her previous partners were never like him.
According to the US Sun, her nanny said she used to date more straight-laced guys. Kourtney reportedly hadn’t gone for any punk rock-style men in the past.
Apparently, Kourtney’s nanny was surprised by Travis’s many tattoos and didn’t know that Kourtney would find a guy like him attractive. According to the Sun, she claimed, “When she was growing up she had a boyfriend called Jeff who was a good kid but he was a pretty boy and very straight-laced, not a rebel at all.”
At any rate, the Sun reported that she said that she didn’t really mind who Kourtney chose, one way or another, as long as she was happy with him. She did make a few quick guesses as to what drew Kourtney to Travis in the first place, including his unique personality.
Kourtney Was the Responsible One
Kourtney’s nanny praised her for being a good role model to her younger siblings and being the responsible kid out of the bunch. The Sun reported that she said, “I’ve often thought that when I’ve watched the show or seen them in the news, she always seems to be the most responsible one.”
Her nanny spoke out a bit about how things were pretty tough for her growing up. Apparently, she was not particularly happy as a teenager. She dealt with her parents’ divorce as best as she could when it happened.
Her nanny also claims that she was very close to her father before the divorce and didn’t appreciate dealing with Bruce when her mother remarried. According to the Sun, Kourtney’s nanny wasn’t happy with the constant drama in her relationship with Scott. She hoped Kourtney would find someone better so that she could relax a little.
The Nanny Wants Kourtney to be Happy
Kourtney’s nanny was reported by the Sun to mostly just be happy to see some good news. She lamented the pressure Kourtney was put under as a kid and commended her for doing well as an adult.
She said, “Sometimes the oldest one has a lot of pressure on them to take that role but right now she seems the most carefree and like she’s just letting her hair down and I am just really happy for her.” Kourtney’s nanny claimed she just wanted to see her happy and thriving in whatever relationship she chose.
In July of this year, a copy of the late Kim Porter’s unreleased memoir became public and allegedly detailed shocking abuse by Diddy. The pages were allegedly obtained by Radar Online. The details of the alleged memoir are nothing less than shocking.
Was Diddy Abusing Kim Porter?
Surprising information about Diddy’s alleged violent conduct against his late ex-girlfriend Kim Porter has surfaced. Forty pages of Kim’s unpublished book have been discovered and provide insight into their turbulent relationship.
According to Radar, someone who claims they were close to Diddy and Kim noted that the late model and actress worked on her unpublished memoir for months before uploading everything to a flash drive and giving it to them. It’s worth noting that Radar Online was unable to independently confirm the information provided by this individual. However, if the alleged memoir is legitimate, then it reveals startling details of how badly Diddy abused the women in his life.
The passages describe violent and intensely jealous incidents between Diddy and Kim. According to one particular section, Kim ended up in the hospital after Diddy attacked her with a chair. The passage notes that she suffered a black eye and had to have her arm put in a sling.
The unpublished memoir also details that Diddy had a violent outburst after Kim received flowers from someone. When Diddy allegedly inquired about her recent relationships, she replied that she had met a producer to discuss playing several parts. According to Kim’s purported memoir, as she attempted to explain the issue, Diddy struck her with a chair after slapping her so hard that she fell to the ground.
Is The Memoir Legitimate?
Radar Online has not been able to confirm the legitimacy of the unpublished memoir. However, if it does come to light that the passages are real, they provide insight into just how abusive Diddy was to Kim.
The passages note that after Diddy assaulted Kim, he apologized to her and told her not to tell anyone about what had happened. He, instead, instructed her to say that she was in an accident.
There are strange parallels in the passages as well. The producer that Kim met with for an acting role died of pneumonia, which would end up being the illness that claimed Kim’s life in 2018.
Since the release of the passages by Radar Online, there have been quite a few conspiracy theories about what really happened. Kim was allegedly working on this memoir before she died, and many believe that her death was not due to possibly something more sinister than an illness.
According to Vibe, singer and record producer Al B. Sure! has suggested in the past that Kim’s death may have been a murder because of all of the sensitive information she was writing about. According to Radar Online, the secret source who provided the passages said they plan to release and publish the entire memoir in the coming days.
It’s worth reiterating that none of the released passages have been verified as legitimate yet.
Ever since her release from prison, Gypsy Rose Blanchard has been in the middle of celebrity gossip. It all started with her decision to divorce her husband, Ryan Anderson, and then continued with her pregnancy by Ken Urker.
Gypsy Rose has made sure she stepped into the limelight after her release. She immediately took to social media to share updates on her journey, and that was the place she announced her pregnancy. She routinely does TikTok videos for her fans to follow, and it’s there that the most recent drama unfolded.
Unraveling the Drama in Gypsy Rose’s Life
During a live, fans saw that the two prominent men in Gypsy Rose’s life are arguing with each other. Gypsy shared that Ryan had started texting Ken and there was a lot of aggressive back and forth. Ken made it clear to Gypsy that he shouldn’t have said what he did, and so Gypsy blocked Ryan’s number.
While Gypsy says that Ryan has created fake numbers and accounts to get in touch with her, fans accuse Gypsy of doing the same thing. Ryan has said that his ex-wife has multiple fake social media accounts. Fans also say that Gypsy Rose clearly loves all the attention that she is getting. They think that she’s playing everyone, making Ryan and Ken battle each other for her love and attention.
It’s no secret that Ken has been a constant problem for Gypsy Rose and Ryan. After all, Ken was Gypsy Rose’s ex-fiance before she ended up marrying Ryan in July 2022 while still in prison. Ryan always felt like there was something there with Ken, and he didn’t like it.
Ryan Thinks Gypsy Rose Still Loves Him
Now it looks like the tables have turned. Gypsy Rose is engaged to Ken and expecting a baby with him, but Ryan is still somewhere in the picture. According to PEOPLE, Ryan is sure that if his ex-wife wasn’t pregnant with another man’s baby she would have come back to him by now. He thinks that she still loves him.
Ryan has shared that his ex blocks him while around Ken but then unblocks him again when she is no longer around Ken. He wants Ken to know that Gypsy Rose isn’t as honest as she seems and that there are other men in her life. According to a fan on Reddit, he has receipts, and he will share them if he needs to.
Fans have even speculated that Ken isn’t the father. With the timeline, it could be possible that it is Ryan’s baby, although Gypsy Rose has broken down the timeline fully to quash those rumors. That doesn’t stop fans from speculating. Fans are sure that Gypsy Rose is playing both men in her life, and that there are some others out there, whether they are real exes or people from jail.
Many want to see Ryan happy, and the only way to do that is to break free from Gypsy Rose completely. They view her as a manipulator, and the only way to stop her from having any power and to stop playing situations is to cut her off.
Being the daughter of a world-famous R&B superstar can’t be easy. For Sy’Rai Smith, having Brandy as a mother has been both a blessing and a curse.
In 2021, she opened up about the tragic unforeseen struggles she’s had to deal with because of the weight of expectation she put on herself. Sy’Rai talked about her issues during an appearance on The Real.
She marked her first TV appearance by talking about body positivity and her own story. As reported in Today, Sy’Rai also had doubts about how her mom really felt about her.
She appeared on The Real after her weight loss journey went viral on social media. Sy’Rai talked about experiencing health problems at her previous weight which inspired her to take her well-being more seriously.
She changed her mindset in order to improve her quality of life and live her purpose. She also noted that she wanted to be there for her family and feel good about herself. Sy’Rai made sure to tell The Real’s hosts that Brandy was with her throughout her journey and witnessed everything her daughter went through.
Sy’Rai Doubted Her Relationship with Brandy
It’s well-known that Brandy has always embraced living a healthy life while being famous as a glamorous and beautiful pop star. For Sy’Rai growing up, this sometimes caused her to doubt herself and their mother-daughter relationship.
She told The Real that she would frequently compare herself to her mom, which made her feel insecure. These insecurities led her to believe that Brandy was ashamed of her size.
Sy’Rai explained, “Seeing my mom dress a certain way or wear certain things when she was on carpets or on set, it was kind of difficult…” She went on to say that seeing her mom would make her think about why she wasn’t that way, too.
She wondered why she was a different size, and why she was made the way she was made. These nagging thoughts of self-doubt would make Sy’Rai feel sad or like Brandy was “embarrassed” by her.
However, deep down, she always knew that this wasn’t the case. Sy’Rai said that her mom was always supportive of her whether she wanted to lose weight or not. She constantly told her that she was beautiful.
So, really, Sy’Rai knew that any concerns she had were caused by her own insecurities. But, those insecurities were the result of some very real problems that not many teenagers have to deal with.
She opened up about feeling like the odd one out in a family that was always in the spotlight. Although she saw herself as the odd one out, her family still loved her no matter what.
Sy’Rai Is Brandy’s Only Child
After the interview, Sy’Rai’s mom couldn’t help but share a tribute to her daughter on Instagram. Brandy shared a screengrab of Sy’Rai’s first TV appearance, and in the caption, she called her an amazing human being.
She went on to write that she loved her daughter’s spirit and her smile. She told her that she was brave to walk in her purpose and shine in her truth on The Real.
Sy’Rai is Brandy’s only child, who she welcomed in 2002 with producer Robert “Big Bert” Smith. In 2002, three years after breaking up with Wanya Morris, Brandy announced that she was married to Robert.
At the same time, she announced that she was pregnant with her daughter. It looked like she was finally going to be able to settle down.
However, her relationship with Robert did not go the distance. After their relationship came to an end, some pretty shocking revelations were made.
Brandy and Robert’s Marriage Was a Sham
Robert revealed in multiple interviews that the former couple had actually faked their marriage. According to him, this was caused by the pressures of Brandy’s career.
Brandy had previously explained that, at that point, everything in her life was about her career and the public perception. She said that she felt pressure about what she was teaching young girls who listened to her music, especially when it came to love. She didn’t want to face people questioning whether she was behaving incorrectly in her relationships.
Brandy said that her teen idol status made her feel like she was all by herself and that whatever she was feeling was going to have to be put aside. So, when she became pregnant, it seemed important to her to pretend that her pregnancy had occurred within a marriage.
Both Brandy and her label, according to Robert, wanted to protect the singer’s squeaky-clean image. Brandy herself later admitted that she had lied about the marriage. She also claimed that she and Robert had had a spiritual union, and had indeed been engaged at one point.
Sy’Rai Focused on Her Health Because of Her Family
Since their breakup, Brandy and Robert have managed to maintain a healthy relationship for the sake of their daughter. Robert eventually moved on with his now-wife, Xochitl Jacques-Smith.
Together, they’ve welcomed Sy’Rai’s five half-siblings, all of whom she reportedly has a close relationship with. This was evident in Sy’Rai’s interview on The Real.
She mentioned that her health problems made her understand that she might not live as long if she didn’t change something. She was partly inspired to do this to spend more time with her siblings, as well as her parents.
While Robert managed to move on and grow his family, Brandy has flitted between several romances without ever settling down. After Robert, she got engaged twice more, to NBA player Quentin Richardson and music exec Ryan Press.
However, neither engagement ultimately led to a marriage. As far as we know, Brandy is currently single and focused on her music and her daughter Sy’Rai.
Sy’Rai Saved Brandy’s Life
However, she’s also been open about how Sy’Rai has helped her as much as the other way around. In 2020, a year before Sy’Rai shared her story on The Real, Brandy opened up to People Magazine about how her daughter got her through her darkest hour.
In 2006, Brandy was involved in a tragic car crash that claimed the life of another woman. The singer did not face criminal charges, having settled out of court with the woman’s family.
The accident, on top of several failed relationships, sent Brandy to rock bottom. She confessed that when her pain was at its peak, she even briefly considered taking her own life. When things got that bad, the one who got her to rise again was her daughter.
Brandy recalled lying in bed feeling “super depressed,” until she thought to herself, “You’re just going to go out like this? That’s wack. You have a daughter.”
She went on to say to herself that if she couldn’t get better for herself, then she had to do it for Sy’Rai because this was no way to leave a mark on her life. Brandy summed it up by saying that if Sy’Rai wasn’t here, she wouldn’t be either.
After that, she decided to work on herself through therapy, meditation, journaling, and faith, as well as getting back to making music. So, it turns out that Sy’Rai couldn’t have been more mistaken in thinking that her mom was embarrassed by her. Fortunately, she’s now fully aware of just how much she means to her whole family.
Angela Simmons is part of one of the most beloved families in hip-hop. So why does she keep getting so much backlash?
Some of her recent forays into business have been mocked by fans on social media. Last month, she faced criticism for her interesting promotion idea for her collaboration with Oreo.
The cookie company partnered with Angela’s Cakes to release her new Fried Oreo. An ad campaign soon followed which included Angela posing for an unconventional photoshoot.
She posed in a bathtub full of Oreos while enjoying a champagne flute filled with milk. Obviously, the ad was supposed to come across as light-hearted fun, but it didn’t quite get the reaction that was intended. Fans instead thought that what Angela did looked really “cringey.”
Some mocking recreations soon followed. Several comedians parodied the photo.
Kevin Fredericks, for example, posted a picture of himself with just a few Oreos scattered across his body. In the caption, he wrote, “Tried to market like Angela Simmons but I only had one pack of Oreos at home.”
Despite all the jokes being made at Angela’s expense, Oreo made it clear that they stood by their collaborator. The company’s official Instagram page posted that Angela was being hated on and that it was probably due simply to everyone having a crush on her.
The reality TV star quickly responded on her own Instagram Story, saying that she had a crush on Oreo, too. Although she tried to take it on the chin, her clapback just didn’t do much to win people over. The fact is just that there have been so many things Angela’s done recently that have made her a target for mockery.
Angela Now Has a Southern Accent
In July, she made an appearance on The Breakfast Club that once again raised some eyebrows. Charlemagne Tha God, a radio personality known for not holding back on his guests, shone a spotlight on Angela’s accent.
He pointed out that despite Angela being one of New York’s most famous daughters, her accent sounded pretty southern. Angela explained that she thought it was probably down to her man, Yo Gotti. Charlemagne joked that Angela must be releasing a country album, which she took in good humor.
However, fans thought once again that she was being a little cringe. One commenter said that it showed that she lacked authenticity.
However, others flocked to show Angela some support. One wrote that they did not understand why people were always so critical of Angela, while others said that it was simply because she was a sweet person who people loved to hate.
Angela’s BET Outfit Choice Recieved Major Backlash
Although Angela has supporters out there, there was one recent controversy that nobody took her side on. She found herself in hot water for her choice of fashion accessory at the 2024 BET Awards.
While there were many eye-catching outfits on display, one that attracted the most attention was Angela’s handbag. Unfortunately for Angela, her choice was almost universally slammed.
She walked the red carpet sporting a glittery green clutch in the shape of a firearm. At one point, she even pointed the bag at the paparazzi cameras as she posed for pictures before the event.
It didn’t take long for commenters online to voice their outrage at Angela’s choice of accessory. It was described as corny, cringe, and simply in bad taste. The reason for this was Angela’s own personal history of experiencing the violence that comes with firearms.
In 2018, her ex-fiance Sutton Tennyson was fatally wounded in a shocking attack. So, for Angela to arrive at the event even appearing to glamorize weapons stirred up a lot of feelings online.
Angela Understood Her Mistake
A short while after the event, Angela took to social media to address the criticism. She explained in a lengthy written statement that she had chosen the purse because it was cute and unique.
However, she admitted that she had made a poor decision, which she now deeply regretted. She acknowledged that the bag was inappropriate and insensitive, especially in light of her own experience.
Angela went on to write that she understood the pain and hurt her choice had caused, particularly to others who had been directly impacted by firearm violence. She said that she did not intend to promote firearm violence in any way and offered her deepest apologies.
She also stated that she has lived her life exemplifying “peace, unification, and the resolution of [firearm] violence in America,” which she described as a disease. Her mistake, she wrote, would not define who she is or her commitment to putting an end to the loss of life caused by firearms. Instead, she would continue “making peace a reality for millions of children and families across America.”
Sutton’s Death Was Tragic
It was her own horrific loss due to firearm violence that inspired Angela to start raising awareness. In November 2018, her ex-fiance Sutton tragically lost his life.
He was attacked in his own garage. By the time the police got there, it was already too late.
Sutton passed away from his injuries. He was just 37.
Three months later, details of the attack on him were shared with the public. When TMZ obtained the results of his autopsy, it came out that Sutton was actually hit 13 times.
The horrible incident allegedly occurred after an argument broke out between Sutton and another man. Police told TMZ that he was seen talking in his driveway with the other man before a weapon was pointed at him. The suspect was said to have then quickly driven away from the scene.
Eventually, the identity of the man who did it was revealed. A man named Michael Williams from Atlanta turned himself in to a local police station. He was taken into custody and charged with multiple felonies, according to People.
His lawyer stated that Michael denied all allegations and would fight the case. However, about four years later, he was sentenced to life in prison. He was also given an additional 15 years for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Angela Learned to Live with the Loss
Angela soon shared her reaction to the sentencing. It was clear that she was happy to see Michael behind bars, but the way that she reacted to it was still heartbreaking.
She posted a photo of Sutton carrying their young son on his shoulders. Another picture she posted showed Sutton hugging her baby bump when she was pregnant.
In the caption, she said that justice was served that day. Next to a heart emoji, she wrote, “we got you,” which seemed to be Angela’s way of talking directly to her baby daddy. It was obvious how much pain she was still in.
In the years since, Angela has learned to live with her loss and has even gone on to try and find love after Sutton. She now seems to have found happiness with Yo Gotti.
Despite how much flack Angela often receives, no one doubts that she still carries the weight of that tragedy. While her choice of bag at the BET Awards was highly questionable, it wasn’t something people wanted to make fun of.
Though, that doesn’t mean that her bizarre marketing campaigns are safe from critics.
The shocking split between Billy Ray Cyrus and Firerose keeps getting crazier. Allegedly, Firerose secretly recorded an enraged Billy Ray saying nasty things about his family members and his second wife, Tish. Now, sources claim that the real truth about Billy Ray has been exposed.
That leaked audio of Billy Ray exploding at Firerose, his decades-younger, soon-to-be third ex-wife, is making their messy divorce even more twisted. An exclusive source revealed some unbelievable details to Us Weekly. Shockingly, this source alleged that Billy Ray is continuing to “spin his story” to villainize Firerose.
Us Weekly reported they “obtained a clip” of the expletive-ridden audio on “Wednesday, July 24th.” After Billy Ray ranted at Firerose that he was “really f–king pissed” at her and how she “will not f–king listen,” his words took an unbelievable turn.
Billy Ray’s Rage Spared None of His Family Members
Us Weekly alleged that Billy Ray began “referring to himself in the third person.” Then, he “seemingly” started “talking about his children.” What Billy Ray allegedly said is despicable enough, and if he’s really talking about his family, it’s unforgivable.
He mentioned “the other two children” in his marriage to Tish. Us Weekly believes that Billy Ray was talking about Tish’s kids, Brandi and Trace. While Billy Ray did legally adopt them, what he says in that leaked audio is insane.
Allegedly, Billy Ray called Brandi and Trace the “sh-t that was there” before “she” met Billy Ray. Us Weekly claimed that “she” is Tish. Billy Ray ranted that Tish had her kids “by two separate fathers… before she met Billy Ray.”
While that sounds heartless and cruel, it gets worse. Us Weekly alleged that Billy Ray started rambling, “Everyone knows the devil’s a sk-nk.”
Whether or not that’s the real truth, Us Weekly admitted that they didn’t know for sure who Billy Ray meant by “devil’s a sk-nk.” They wrote that it could be 31-year-old Miley or 57-year-old Tish.
Miley Sided with Her Mother
Allegedly, Billy Ray has also thrown the worst shade at Tish in texts. Shockingly, Page Six reported that Billy Ray’s nasty texts about Tish were leaked recently.
Page Six claimed to have “obtained” alleged text messages that Billy Ray sent to “his manager.” They reported that Billy Ray’s words sounded “heated,” and he called Tish a “liar,” a “cheat,” and even a “wh-re.”
But Billy Ray wasn’t nearly done throwing shade. Page Six alleged that he described Tish as a “complete sk-nk” and the “scum of the earth.” He then called her “a fraud,” and Billy Ray claimed that Tish makes Lindsay Lohan’s mother “look like Mother Teresa.”
According to Page Six, Miley is showing “allegiance to her mother” with posts on Instagram and X from a “Gucci photo shoot,” where Miley was photographed “sweetly embracing Tish.”
Page Six also reported how bad it is between Miley and Billy Ray. They wrote that Miley “has been estranged from her dad for some time.” When Miley won her first Grammy for Record of the Year in February 2024, she “noticeably excluded” Billy Ray in her acceptance speech.
Billy Ray Was Allegedly Slamming Miley in the Recording
On July 24th, the Daily Mail also claimed to have an “exclusive” on Billy Ray’s “expletive-filled tirade.” According to the Daily Mail, it was Miley who Billy Ray was “slamming” in the audio secretly recorded by Firerose.
Daily Mail said they’d listened to the disturbing audio, and they described the bizarre way that Billy Ray talked about “himself in the third person.” They added that Billy Ray turned “his attention to his daughter, Miley.” They alleged that Billy Ray uttered “the shocking statement: ‘Everyone knows that devil’s a sk-nk.”
It’s twisted how Firerose seemed to be the guilty party in this public breakup after Billy Ray filed for divorce on May 23rd. Today.com reported in May that Billy Ray had filed for divorce after just “seven months of marriage,” and he made shocking allegations in his court filing.
Billy Ray alleged that Firerose had been “verbally, emotionally, and physically abusive.” Billy Ray also claimed that his manager, Scott Adkins, had “witnessed” what Firerose did to him.
Firerose Alleged that Billy Ray Harmed Her
But that leaked audio is making everyone wonder if Firerose is more like a victim of Billy Ray. On July 26th, Us Weekly reported that Firerose released a personal statement on social media.
Firerose posted an Instagram Story, writing in part, “This week has been monumental in many ways.” She mentioned the ways she’s “healing” from Billy Ray’s alleged narcissism and worse.
Before she secretly recorded that explosive audio, Firerose had alleged that Billy Ray was harming her verbally. According to a Page Six report, Firerose claimed that Billy Ray’s “rage” included shouting at her “at the top of his lungs” and calling her a “stupid dumb f–king b-tch” and a “crazy wh-re.”
In another Page Six report, they wrote that Miley had appeared on David Letterman’s streaming show, “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction.” During their interview, Miley also alleged that Billy Ray was a narcissist, and she “inherited the narcissism” from him.
Billy Ray Accused Firerose of Misusing His Credit Cards
In another shocking twist, Billy Ray has acknowledged that he was “vocal, frustrated, and angry” with Firerose on the leaked audio from May 2024. However, recent court documents show that Billy Ray is accusing Firerose of verbally and physically attacking him.
In a court affidavit, Billy Ray’s manager, Scott, alleged that he “personally witnessed” Firerose speaking “disrespectfully and acting out of control” with Billy Ray. Scott also alleged that Billy Ray told him, “Scott, she is hitting me again.”
Firerose has countered Billy Ray’s allegations with claims that she felt “unsafe” living under his roof in Nashville. Firerose claimed that she’s had to get emergency “psychological treatment” from a therapist “on more than one occasion.” She referred to life with Billy Ray as “sheer toxicity.”
Billy Ray also alleged that Firerose had used his credit cards when she wasn’t authorized to. He accused her of spending almost $100,000 in “fraudulent charges” on his American Express card. On this account, Billy Ray has scored a win.
The Daily Mail reported on June 14th that Billy Ray had requested a “temporary restraining order” from the court to stop Firerose “from having any more access to his bank accounts and credit cards.” In a follow-up report, Daily Mail confirmed that Billy Ray “won an injunction” preventing Firerose from “continuing to use them.”
Billy Ray Called Firerose His Soulmate
According to the Daily Mail, Billy Ray’s “strained” relationship with Miley hit its lowest point after he married Firerose in 2022, “just four months after Tish filed for divorce.” However, the real truth was that Billy Ray became friends with Firerose while he was still married to Tish. Daily Mail reported that Billy Ray “first met Firerose in 2010,” and the circumstances were twisted.
Billy Ray was 48 when he met Firerose, born in Sydney, Australia, under her real name, Johanna Scholem. Firerose was just 22 years old when she met Billy Ray. Allegedly, they bumped into each other outside the studio where Miley was starring in the Disney Channel hit Hannah Montana.
Daily Mail wrote that Billy Ray and Firerose “became friends,” and “nothing happened romantically” until Billy Ray “reached out” to Firerose “a decade later.” But could there be another, more shocking side to this story?
Billy Ray reached out to ask Firerose to “duet with him” on an updated version of the classic Tanya Tucker hit “Delta Dawn.” As the Daily Mail reported, Billy Ray “was still married to Tish,” but you won’t believe what he allegedly told Firerose. According to the Daily Mail, Billy Ray “told Firerose they were ‘soulmates,” and he “promised her a romance for the ages.”
Firerose agreed to be Billy Ray’s wife, and they married in October 2023. Now that they’re divorcing, the Daily Mail wrote that it’s become “an increasingly bitter legal battle.”
Billy Ray Kicked Firerose Out of Their House
There’s another side to this story. If it’s true, it makes Billy Ray sound even more heartless.
Daily Mail wrote that they obtained documents showing that Firerose agreed to move out of Billy Ray’s house after he filed for divorce. But she claims he “kicked her out of the marital home” at the worst time.
Firerose alleges he kicked her out on May 23, 2024. Daily Mail claimed that it was “one day before she was due to undergo a preventative double mastectomy” because Firerose has a gene that places her “at high risk of developing certain forms of cancer.” The Daily Mail confirmed that Firerose has “since postponed her surgery indefinitely.”
The 47-year-old father of eight himself is right at the center of controversy by making claims about his ex-wife and girlfriend and their relationship with their estranged children. But, those assertions didn’t last long and exposed a web of potential lies.
The Shocking Claims
Jon was invited tothe Dom Nati Show where he dropped a bombshell stating his ex-wife Kate and high girlfriend Stephanie Lebo are on speaking terms with each other. He also mentioned that even though he has not seen Kate or his kids since 2018, Stephanie has been in touch with them.
He presented Stephanie as a bridge between the fractured family and accentuated the point that she was “completely integrated” into his kids’ lives. Jon also mentioned that Stephanie had spoken to Kate on FaceTime. This turned out to be a lie.
When Jon and Stephanie gave an interview to The U.S. Sun, their narrative shifted quite drastically. They contradicted all the claims they made at the Dom Nati show, with Stephanie clearly stating she was not on speaking terms with Kate but would love to change that and connect with Kate whenever possible. This statement nullifies all the claims Jon made regarding the existing communication between Kate and Stephanie.
The Lawsuits
Jon’s initial claims also involved his children, as he suggested that his estranged children were more comfortable connecting with Stephanie than him. But, he negated these claims in the U.S. Sun interview and admitted that no “full-on conversations” had ever happened between Steph and his children.
Just like Stephanie, Jon also expressed a desire to resolve the issues and develop a better family bond. He said he would love it if both Kate and Stephanie decided to communicate, as it would be a step towards building a “united” family. However, it seems quite difficult considering all the conflicting information he has shared recently and the history of legal and personal battles between him and his ex-wife.
Jon and Kate parted ways in 2009, and right after their divorce, their reality show fame quickly turned into a courtroom saga over custody arrangements and child support payments. Recently, According to WASH11, Kate also filed a lawsuit against Jon, suing him over alleged back child support payments of $132,875. The court did not decide in her favor, but her lawyer has mentioned that the legal wrangling is far from over.
So, right now, there’s no hope for Jon’s dream of becoming a “united family,” especially when he has absolutely no contact with his children, Aaden, Alexis, Leah, Joel, Cara, orMady.
Jon’s New Life
Jon met Stephanie in 2021, not long after a breakup with ex-girlfriend Colleen. Though he kept his new relationship private for a while, he eventually disclosed it last year and committed to staying with her in the future. In an interview with People Magazine, he has even hinted at proposing to Stephanie soon.
While the controversy is still hot, Kate has not responded. She has decided not to speak up, as she values her privacy. Her only recent public communication was on social media where she wished four of her sextuplets a happy birthday, omitting Collin and Hannah, who live with Jon.
Before the former couple can officially divorce in court, they will have to live apart for six months after the divorce papers are served, according to Jeffrey Carrier, Ryan’s attorney, who spoke with TMZ in late July. Ryan and Gypsy, who were married in 2022 while Gypsy was still in prison, will need this “trial separation” before they can officially end their marriage.
Gypsy, 32, and Ryan, 37, parted ways in just three months after Gypsy was granted parole in December 2023 following a seven-year jail term for her role in her mother Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard’s murder conspiracy with Nick Godejohn.
Why Are Gypsy And Ryan Breaking Up?
Gypsy filed for divorce on April 8. There are a number of reasons for the breakup, namely Ryan’s food-hoarding issues. Things got tense when Gypsy and Ryan fought over the food issues and she was quite angry after having to clean out their shared fridge while her ex was out of the home.
There are also rumors that Gypsy may have been cheating on Ryan with her ex-fiance, Ken Urker. There is no way to prove the infidelity, and Gypsy and Ken have not admitted to being together while Gypsy was with Ryan. However, some fans suspect that Gypsy and Ken were fooling around while Ryan was in the picture, as the two publicly got together less than a month after Gypsy and Ryan split. Initially, Gypsy and Ken were together in 2019 before Gypsy cut ties with him.
The pair were seen last April getting matching tattoos together, and Gypsy later confirmed with TMZ that the pair were an item.
“After reconnecting earlier this month (April), we realized that our love for each other is simply undeniable, and life is too short to not take a chance,” Gypsy told TMZ.
Ryan Anderson Was ‘Blindsided’ By The Split
Ryan, unfortunately, was “blindsided” by the split.
“It was like, she was here one day and the next she was gone,” Ryan said to TODAY. “The matching tattoos really, really got me, that was one that really hurt.”
The Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up docu-series revealed that Gypsy was texting Ken while she was married to Ryan. However, it’s unclear if any actual cheating occurred.
“He’s trying to weasel his way back in because Gypsy is out of prison,” said Ryan to TODAY.
Gypsy Rose And Ryan Anderson’s Impending Divorce
Jeffrey Carrier told TMZ that the six-month waiting period is required for married couples who do not have children together. Because Ryan wasn’t served until July, the six-month wait will likely end early next year.
In the meantime, it looks like the former couple is settling post-divorce issues ahead of time. No support or alimony will be exchanged, as agreed upon between both parties.
Just as well, despite only being together for less than two years, the pair have some assets that they will have to divide. Some of these assets include show contracts as well as books. Ryan will be taking their dog, Pixie.
