On September 2nd, Amy Slaton of TLC’s 1,000-Lb. Sisters was involved in a shocking Labor Day arrest in Crockett County, Tennessee. This sounds unbelievable, but 36-year-old Amy was allegedly involved in an incident where a camel bit a “guest” visiting a zoo in Alamo, Tennessee, west of Nashville.

People Magazine was among the first national outlets to break this disturbing story. Police reports indicate that Amy has been charged with “child endangerment” and the possession of substances.

Local affiliate WKRN News 2 also covered this story in a breaking news alert on September 3rd. They referred to the “multiple charges” that Amy Slaton-Halterman will face in a court of law after she got “arrested at a drive-thru zoo in West Tennessee.”

People confirmed that law enforcement from the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department responded to “calls of a guest reportedly being bitten by a camel at Tennessee Safari Park.” When Crockett County deputies arrived on the scene, they were “immediately overtaken by suspicious odors” coming from the vehicle involved in the incident. Amy was a passenger, and a man named Brian Scott Lovvorn was also involved and arrested with her.

Amy’s Children Were Allegedly Present at the Arrest

People quoted a Facebook post from the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department listing the charges as “illegal possession of schedule I, illegal possession of schedule IV, and two counts of child endangerment.” Amy and Brian were “booked in the Crockett County Jail,” but the Sheriff set the record straight on what this all means.

The Sheriff’s Facebook post explained that the “charges and allegations” Amy and Brian face “are merely accusations of criminal conduct and not evidence.” They are “presumed innocent… until proven guilty… through due process of law.”

Us Weekly reported on September 3rd that the Sheriff’s Facebook post didn’t mention whether Amy’s kids, 4-year-old Gage and 2-year-old Glenn, were in the vehicle. However, some outlets are connecting the dots and alleging that Amy’s kids were present, and that accounts for the two charges of child endangerment.

The US Deputy Editor of Hello! Magazine online reported that Amy was with her “boyfriend, Brian.” They also alleged that Amy was the “guest” at the zoo who was “bitten by a camel.”  

Media outlets quickly uploaded Amy and Brian’s mugshots. Hello! described Amy as “grimacing for the camera wearing [an orange] prison jumpsuit.”

E! News updated this story mid-morning on Tuesday. They confirmed that the Sheriff’s social media post didn’t “supply additional details on the alleged camel bite.” Still, E! News mentioned that the post did have a descriptive headline: “FROM FEEDING A CAMEL TO THE SLAMMER,” which is a pretty big clue about what Amy could have allegedly done from inside her vehicle to set this chain of events off.

Amy Publicly Bashed Her Previous Boyfriends

There isn’t yet much to report about who this Brian guy is, either. However, E! News has extensively reported on Amy’s dating history after her 2023 divorce from Michael Halterman.

In March 2024, E! News reported that Amy broke up with another boyfriend, who was only referred to as “Kevin.” Sadly, Amy began “posting a series of cryptic quotes” on social media about her love life, and E! News claimed that Amy “slammed her boyfriend Kevin for only dating her because he ‘wanted fame.’”

On March 11th, Amy also spilled some tea in a TikTok video, revealing she was suffering from “a dash of low self-esteem.” In the video, Amy is seen trying on a black strapless party dress in a fitting room. She’s really putting herself out there, and her fans responded with love and positive vibes for the reality TV star.

Serving body baby with dash of low self esteem but we doing the damn thing!!!

Amy seemed grateful for the well wishes, commenting on one post, “I love y’all.” Then, she got real.

Amy wrote that it had been a “ruff few days.” She attacked Kevin online. Amy also wrote that she’d decided not to cry over “his loser a**.”

E! News reported that Amy was “first linked” to Kevin in February 2024, but their relationship was short-lived. E! News claimed that Amy “first suggested she may be single again on March 7.”

Amy revealed on TikTok that “she was going through a difficult time.” She talked about people who mistakenly figured she didn’t “hurt” because she always kept “going.” Amy set the record straight, writing, “Let me be clear… I hurt AND keep going.”

Amy Focused on Her Children after Michael

She also revealed another side of this dating disaster. Amy explained on TikTok that “life is already hard.” That’s why she didn’t “want to be around anyone who makes it worse.”

Unfortunately, Amy has been involved with a couple of guys like this. You have to wonder if Brian is just another “loser” boyfriend to add to the pile.

E! News also described the “important lesson” that Amy claimed she’d learned after her divorce from Michael. It might sound like personal growth, but is Amy really practicing what she preached?

On February 25th, Amy uploaded a TikTok video while still involved with Kevin. She said that any new suitor in her life had to “meet my kids’ daddy first and build that bond.” Amy made the shocking claim that Kevin would meet her kids “maybe in a year.” 

Amy had previously revealed that Kevin has three kids. She explained, “I’m not meeting his kids, and he ain’t meeting my kids for almost a year.”

Since this relationship appeared to barely last a month, Kevin must not have met Gage and Glenn. But what about Brian and the unnamed kids in the car during that arrest at Tennessee Safari Park?

Amy Quickly Moved on from Michael

Last December, E! News reported that Amy had detailed the “sparks” she felt in a “new romance” after her divorce, but they weren’t talking about Kevin in this exclusive. E! News revealed that Amy had gotten involved with a guy named Tony Rodgers, another short-lived relationship. Shockingly, Amy confessed “why she knew she had to dive into a relationship with Tony… following her breakup with Michael.” 

Amy had gone “social media official” with Tony only one month before. She told E! News exclusively that “the sparks just flew” with him, and she had to “go for it,” even though she wasn’t sure if it was the “right time.” Turns out it wasn’t.

E! News confirmed that Amy went public with her “new relationship [just] eight months” after Michael filed for divorce. Amy and Michael were married for four years, and she revealed more of her sad story to E!.  

Amy admitted she didn’t “really know what the final breaking point was,” but she described her marriage as “a struggle for a while.” She also claimed, “The love wasn’t there like it used to be.” 

Amy seemed to be putting her kids first then. She told E!, “Things just got harder,” and she “knew things had to change” for them.

Amy Is Receiving Mental Health Treatment

E! News reported on Amy’s divorce from Michael in March 2023. They’d been married since March 2019, and their youngest son was only nine months old when Michael filed to end the marriage at “Union County courthouse.”

E! News wrote that Amy and Michael’s relationship began “when they were kids.” She had revealed to The Sun that she met Michael when she was eight years old, and she alleged that they “stopped dating” when Michael “turned 18.”

However, Amy and Michael’s relationship eventually turned romantic again. She told The Sun that he loved and supported her, and added that Michael didn’t care how much she weighed or how much weight she lost.

After her sons were born, Amy also “opened up to E! News” about the good and not-so-good parts of having “two kids under the age of 2.” For Amy, the “best part” was watching Gage and Glen interacting with each other and “[getting] to know each other.”

The “worst part” might sound familiar to many parents with kids close in age. Amy revealed that being “home alone with the two of them” could get bad when her boys both started “crying at the same time.” She added, “I don’t know which one to give my attention to first.”

People Magazine published an “exclusive” with Amy in December 2023, where she revealed shocking details about her mental health and “bipolar disorder diagnosis.” Even though Amy had lost “176 lbs,” she claimed to be suffering “PTSD” from her divorce.

Amy went to therapy and said, “It’s a relief to know that I’m not crazy.” Hopefully, Amy’s mental health will get back on track following this bizarre arrest.

The Tragedy of JLo’s Kids

Are JLo’s kids okay? With the recent news of her and Ben Affleck’s divorce, people are getting concerned for them.

It seems like JLo might have a toxic pattern when it comes to her relationships. She always makes her kids befriend the kids of her new boyfriends. But then, her relationships always fall apart, and the kids are the ones who suffer.

Is that actually what happens? The truth about her kids is finally coming out, and you’ll never believe it.

RELATED: Are Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Getting Back Together?

If you don’t know, JLo has two kids. She had twins Emme and Max back in February 2008, who she welcomed with her then-husband Marc Anthony.

She and Marc have not been together for years, but Emme and Max are both obviously a huge part of JLo’s life. They’re her children, after all, and she really cares about them. But not everyone is convinced that she always does what’s best for them.

The Children Are Losing Their Blended Siblings

At this point, people are aware that when JLo and Ben Affleck got back together a few years ago, they were really excited about their new blended family. JLo isn’t the only one who already had kids.

Ben actually has three children. He had them with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.

Their oldest kid is named Violet. They also had Seraphina and Samuel later on.

This means that when Ben and JLo got back together, their blended family had 5 kids altogether, and the couple made sure that they would all get along.

They wanted to bond with them as step-parents, but they also wanted all the step-siblings to have good relationships with each other. This would honestly be pretty admirable and wholesome, except their relationship obviously didn’t last. They’re now headed for divorce.

This must be a pretty difficult time for them. Divorce is never easy.

But it’s not just the two of them who might be taking this new development hard. Because the kids all grew close, it’s possible that they’re struggling right now, too.

There are actually some pretty big hints that this is exactly what’s happening. After the divorce news came out, Ben’s daughter Violet was seen wearing a pretty shocking dress. She wore a dress that JLo herself had previously worn.

This really seemed like a statement. Was she not ready to let go of her stepmom?

That could very well be the case. JLo seems to have a great relationship with Ben’s kids.

The Kids are JLo’s Top Priority

In August, an insider spoke to People Magazine. This source claimed that JLo tried really hard to make the relationship work. She’s apparently really heartbroken about how it all turned out.

But there’s one thing she’s made clear. The kids are still her top priority, despite the divorce.

The source told People, “Just because she’s not with Ben, doesn’t mean that she doesn’t care about his kids. She always cared about them.”

RELATED: JLO is Spiraling

Apparently, she even spent a very long time looking for the perfect house for their big family. Sadly, her dream of her perfect house and perfect family has now come to an end.

Despite her best efforts to bond with the kids, her relationship with Ben just wasn’t working. It seems that she still wants to maintain some kind of relationship with the children.

But at the same time, how long is that going to last? Once she and Ben are officially divorced, are they really still going to hang around each other’s families? That seems kind of unlikely.

The Kids Are Ready to Move On

There’s also the question of how Ben feels. JLo has made it pretty clear that she still cares about his children.

But is Ben just as willing to maintain a relationship with Emme and Max? And how do the children themselves feel?

It actually sounds like they might be kind of over it. Despite the fact that they’ve all grown super close, they’re allegedly ready to move on now.

One source spoke to Page Six, and they said that all the kids were taking the divorce news pretty well. They are supposedly all ready to just move on. But is this actually the case?

Seraphina and Emme especially allegedly got super close. They seemingly created a pretty amazing sibling bond.

So, how will they cope if they can’t see each other anymore? Even if they can still see each other, it probably won’t be as often as they’ve gotten used to. This might become really difficult for them.

It’s one of the reasons why people are criticizing JLo right now. Is it possible that she and Ben simply moved too fast? If they had taken more time before getting back together and blending their families, maybe their relationship would’ve been more stable.

Had they realized sooner that it just wasn’t going to work, they could’ve saved their kids from all this potential pain. But now, it’s too late for that. The kids will have to deal with this pretty massive change, and only time will tell how well they will be able to cope with that.

Emme and Max Have Dealt with Divorce Before

The sad thing is that this isn’t the first time something like this has happened to JLo’s kids specifically. She and Marc Anthony were obviously together when they had Emme and Max. They got married in 2004 and had the twins about 4 years later.

For a short while, they seemed like the perfect little family. Unfortunately, things didn’t work out between JLo and Marc. The two of them split up in the summer of 2011.

At the time, they wrote a joint statement to People Magazine. In it, they said, “This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters.”

Their divorce was finalized three years later, in 2014, when the twins were only 6 years old. This is when JLo’s rollercoaster of a dating life really started.

Shortly after she and Marc split up, she started dating Casper Smart. He allegedly really helped her heal.

They were together for a few years, but their relationship wasn’t exactly stable. They kept breaking up and getting back together.

This must’ve been pretty hard for the kids. In the first few years of their relationship, JLo and Marc’s divorce wasn’t even finalized yet.

Casper and JLo eventually went their separate ways in 2016, but it wasn’t long before she got into another relationship.

JLo Almost Married A-Rod

In March 2017, People Magazine confirmed that JLo was seeing Alex Rodriguez, aka A-Rod. A-Rod actually also already had kids. He has two daughters, Natasha and Ella, with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis.

JLo and A-Rod were clearly very serious about each other. They also seemingly wanted to blend their families.

One insider told People that A-Rod was spending a lot of time around JLo’s family. They also kept posting photos of all their kids on social media.

Everything seemed perfect. The kids were happy, and so was the couple. A-Rod even proposed to JLo in 2019.

It looked like they would live happily ever after. Unfortunately, that didn’t exactly happen. They started planning their wedding, but then the COVID-19 pandemic started.

In April 2021, we found out that things were over between them. Not long after that, JLo got back together with Ben, and the rest is history.

The thing is that A-Rod and his kids were a big part of JLo and her children’s lives. They were also this big blended family, but then it all fell apart pretty quickly.

Suddenly, the twins were thrown into another, similar situation with Ben and his kids. It seems like they adjusted pretty well and got along great with Ben, Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel. Still, it must’ve been a pretty huge shock for them.

Jason Aldean Speaks Out About Daughter

Behind the scenes, Jason Aldean’s relationship with his two oldest daughters is allegedly troubled or even non-existent. Major media outlets seem to be reluctant to report any fallout between Jason and the kids from his first marriage. However, inside sources allege that Jason and his current wife, Brittany Kerr, have been fighting with Jason’s oldest daughter, Keeley Williams, “for years.”

Jason’s second daughter is 17-year-old Kendyl Williams. While some insiders allege that Kendyl is equally unhappy with her dad and stepmom, Jason continues to paint a rosy picture of his relationship with Kendyl.

RELATED: Uncovering Jason Aldean’s Sad Rift with his Daughter

On August 20th, Taste of Country reported that Jason had shared a “touching reflection” about Kendyl around her birthday, and it sounded as sweet as a greeting card. Taste of Country wrote that “hitmaker” Jason had 21-year-old Keeley and Kendyl “before… his two children with Brittany, 6-year-old Memphis, and 5-year-old Navy.” They added that “life is flying by for the singer and his family” and “it’s something [that Jason] is well aware of.”

Jason Is Proud of One of His Daughters

Jason’s critics would throw shade at him for being equally “well aware” of his rumored estrangement with Keeley. He never mentioned Keeley when he celebrated Kendyl in a birthday tribute on Instagram for his 4.5 million followers.

The truth is Jason praised himself on social media before he mentioned Kendyl. He wrote, “As parents, we spend all the young years runnin’ and gunnin’, just trying to keep up and raise good humans.”

When he woke up one day, Jason realized that “they are almost grown.” He thought he “did pretty good at this dad thing.” That’s shocking, considering the unverified but highly suspect rumors that Jason and Brittany have made grown-up Keeley’s life unbearable.

Jason mentioned Kendyl on Instagram when he wrote that he couldn’t believe it’s been “17 years” since she came into the world. He added that Kendyl has “been such a joy” for everyone around her as she’s grown up.

Jason wrote that he was “so proud” of Kendyl and all she stands for. He finished with, “I love u so much and hope u have the best day.”

Jason Stopped Posting About His Eldest Daughter

On Kendyl’s birthday this year, People Magazine updated a report that was “all about” Jason’s four kids. After Jason’s ex-wife, Jessica Ussery gave birth to Kendyl in 2007, Jason often took his first family “on the road with him.” as People described in their article.

A few years ago, Jason posted a throwback photo on Instagram of Kendyl and big sister Keeley. While Keeley has been mysteriously absent from Jason and Brittany’s social media since then, Jason did confess in 2021 that the photo of his two oldest girls was one of his favorite memories of touring when they were little. 

Kendyl officially became a teenager four years ago, and People described Jason as a “proud dad” who celebrated her on social media. Jason wished Kendyl a “happy 13th ‘bday’” and called her “one of the coolest and sweetest kids” he knows.

Jason also claimed it was “so cool” watching Kendyl grow up and “turn into the person u are.” He sweetly said, “I love u so much and couldn’t be prouder of you.”

Kendyl celebrated her milestone “sweet 16” birthday in 2023, and Jason went overboard in last year’s birthday tribute on Instagram. Jason described then-16-year-old Kendyl as “one of the sweetest, kindest, and most thoughtful people” he knows. He said it was “truly an honor and a blessing” to be her “daddy.” 

Since Jason and Keeley appear to be estranged by then, something about his birthday tribute to Kendyl sounded suspicious. He wrote that “we” are “so proud of the person you are and what you stand for.” Jason finished with, “Don’t ever change that,” with three exclamation marks!!!

Jason and Brittany Spared No Expense for Kendyl’s Party

Country Now reported that Jason and Brittany pulled out “all the stops” for Kendyl’s “lavish… birthday bash.” The real truth is this party sounded hella expensive.

That’s shocking considering that Jason allegedly refused to fund Keeley’s whole college education. According to inside sources, Jason’s alleged stinginess with his oldest child is one of the major reasons behind their fallout.

Country Now called Kendyl’s birthday party “exquisite.” For the record, no one in attendance confirmed that Keeley was a guest at her little sister’s milestone event.

As Country Now reported, Jason and Brittany hosted the party at one of their mansions, and “no detail was missed.” Brittany bragged about Kendyl’s party on social media, mentioning a “braid bar,” a “permanent jewelry bar,” a “customized photo booth,” and “custom illustrations” of the guests. 

No one went hungry at this celebration, either. Brittany mentioned the “personal chef” on social media. Country Now wrote that Brittany “recapped the party in an Instagram reel” that featured lines of “custom cookies… and an extravagant cake adorned with colorful roses.”

Brittany and Jason seemed to spend a small fortune on color-coordinating birthday party “flower arrangements” in “various shades of pink and orange.” Thankfully, Kendyl was gracious in thanking her dad and stepmom on social media.

Kendyl Praised Her Dad and Stepmom on Social Media

Country Now confirmed that Kendyl “quickly took to the comments” of Jason’s 16th birthday tribute on social media. She thanked her dad and called Jason a “role model” and “best friend all in one!”

Kendyl also wrote, “Thank you for always making me happy.”

Brittany praised her second stepdaughter on Instagram, wishing Kendyl a “Happy Sweet 16” and calling her “one of the best kiddos in the whole world.” Then, Brittany revealed something that shocked her.

She wrote, “Being [Kendyl’s] bonus mama has been such a blessing.” Brittany could not believe she had been watching Kendyl grow for “a whole decade.” She also acknowledged all the vendors they hired who had made Kendyl’s 16th birthday “extra special.”

Jason and Brittany’s critics might be surprised at how Kendyl reacted to Brittany’s post. Country Now reported that Kendyl “showcased gratitude” for Brittany “in the comments section.”

Kendyl wrote, “Thank you for making this day so special.” Believe it or not, Kendyl finished by writing, “I love you,” to Brittany.

One of Jason’s more playful birthday tributes to Kendyl was posted in 2019, her last year as a preteen. Jason posted a casual-looking photo on Instagram where he’s hugging Kendyl. Jason wished Kendyl a “Happy 12th birthday, ” calling her a “lil baller” and his “Kendyl Bug!”

This all sounds warm and loving, but is it the real truth?

Jason Has No Regrets

People Magazine reported that they interviewed Jason in November 2021, and he opened up a bit more than usual about the struggles of managing his career and raising a family. Jason began optimistically, stating that it felt good “to know that for the past 16 years,” he’d woken up to “a job” that he truly loved to do.

A few years ago, Jason claimed that “if it all went away tomorrow,” he would think to himself, “My kids are good. It’s been great,” and he had “no regrets at all.”

Then, Jason dropped that bombshell. According to People, Jason “shared” that it hadn’t “always been easy balancing his career and his family.”

He told People that he didn’t want to say he’s accomplished “everything” in his life that he “set out to do.” Jason thought he hadn’t done it all, but believed he “accomplished a lot more” than he “thought” he would.

Jason said, “I got four beautiful kids. I got a beautiful wife and had a great career.”

Jason Gave a Nod to Donald Trump

This year, Jason also spoke out again about his extreme political viewpoints. On July 15th, USA Today reported that Jason had “tipped his cowboy hat” to Donald Trump.

This happened after Donald lived through an “assassination attempt” at a campaign rally. Jason was performing a few days later, and he dedicated his “controversial hit “Try That in a Small Town” to Donald.

Someone at Jason’s concert shared a video of the moment, and Jason revealed that “President Trump” is a “friend.” Jason claimed, “We all know what’s going to happen come November, so it’s all good.”

Shockingly, Jason claimed that there’s a lot of stuff in the world. He said, “That’s kind of what this song right here was about.”

Then, he said, “This one goes out to the pres.” Jason was referring to Donald Trump, as there seems to be no stopping the Aldeans and their MAGA love.

What Happened with Bow Wow and Angela Simmons?

These days, Angela Simmons appears to be madly in love with her rapper boyfriend Yo Gotti. But years earlier, she was famously involved with another name in hip hop, Bow Wow.

They first met when Angela was just 17 years old. According to Heavy Magazine, Angela has claimed that the rapper broke her heart multiple times after their first encounter. Despite this, the truth about their relationship was that they only ever dated briefly, without ever quite making it to the boyfriend/girlfriend level.

Apparently, their relationship broke down due to a big decision Angela had made about her personal life. She told Bow Wow she wanted to wait until marriage, which was not a commitment Bow Wow wanted to make. 

However, Bow Wow has since said that their relationship had a huge “What if?” question attached to it. In an interview with E! News, however, Angela made it clear that this came down to Bow Wow’s mistakes. 

She said, “Bow and I – we were young. Like – he did a lot of messing up. A lot of it. Cause he was young and having fun and I was like the girl who was probably… ready to commit.”

She acknowledged that the timing wasn’t right for the pair. They continued to be seen together frequently as fellow cast members of Growing Up Hip Hop. 

Bow Wow Couldn’t Get Over Angela

In fact, a few years ago, the show saw Bow Wow attempting to shoot his shot with Angela again. In a clip from the season, Bow Wow jokingly asked Angela to marry him and have his kid, although Angela didn’t look too amused. 

It wasn’t the only time their romantic past had been acknowledged publicly. It also wasn’t the only time Bow Wow failed to read the room before bringing it up. Last year, he commented on a photo Angela shared on Instagram in what can only be described as cringy. 

RELATED: Angela Simmons Speaks Out About Yo Gotti

Angela shared a photo of herself in a bikini while on vacation in Bali. Bow Wow quickly jumped in the comment to write, “I’m just glad I was lucky to take the photo.” By that time, Angela had already appeared to move on with another rapper.

One thing both her hip-hop partners shared was a passion for sharing their admiration for Angela in public. For Yo Gotti, this took the form of repeated romantic shout-outs in his songs.

Yo Gotti Publicly Confessed His Love

The beginnings of their relationship were the subject of a lot of media attention. Last November, Hot News Hip Hop took a look back at the unorthodox approach the rapper took to catching Angela’s attention. 

The first hint at a potential romance between the pair came in 2015. When Yo Gotti released his track Down in the DM, he publicly declared his affection for Rev Run’s daughter.

He rapped the lyrics: “And I just followed Angela. Boy, I got a crush on Angela Simmons.” This honest statement of interest received plenty of attention, but, at the time, Angela was not interested in responding to Yo Gotti’s rap about her.

It would be years before the two of them became a couple. In the intervening years, Angela would experience tragedy after the loss of her one-time fiance, Sutton Tennyson, with whom she shared a son, in 2018. 

It would be another five years before Yo Gotti and Angela’s names were linked again. Yo Gotti rapped about her again on the song Save It For Me. 

Last year, he finally took his chance with her. Angela and Yo Gotti decided to start the year 2023 with the announcement that they were in a relationship. They both took to Instagram to share pictures of each other along with captions declaring what Hot News Hip Hop described as “a declaration of love and mutual admiration.”

Angela shared a series of shots from an elegant photoshoot with Yo Gotti. In the caption, she wrote, “You are all I need and more,” followed by a love heart emoji. She later posted another photo from inside a luxury car, showing her being poured a glass of champagne by her new partner.  

Angela Starred in Yo Gotti’s Music Videos

Since going official on social media, the couple have continued to share public displays of their feelings for each other. Yo Gotti has repeatedly been reported to express his love for Angela in other dramatic ways. 

For her 36th birthday, he reportedly arranged a collection of expensive and stylish gifts for his partner. These included bouquets of flowers, black Chanel boxes, and white candles.

There was even a saxophone player performing for Angela. The scene also included tribal dancers and took place on a beach. 

The footage, shared on Instagram, showed Angela getting emotional as Yo Gotti revealed what he’d done for her. Angela then took to Instagram herself, writing in her stories that she had been touched by the gesture and calling Yo Gotti her “best gift.”

A few months later, Yo Gotti used his music again to celebrate his relationship with Angela. People Magazine reported that the video for his new song, The One, showcased moments from the couple’s new life together.

The 42-year-old rapped about his girlfriend in the “PDA-filled music video” starring both the rapper and Angela. The video was filmed during a trip to Greece and Dubai, and it featured clips of the couple kissing and driving around in a Rolls Royce.  

Yo Gotti’s lyrics matched the video. He rapped things like: “You give me butterflies in your stomach, like we still in middle school.” Yo Gotti even admitted on the track that he got “nervous vibes” when he missed Angela. 

Angela went on to appear in another of his videos, No Fake Love, which again mused on the pair’s loving relationship.

Bow Wow Is Happy for Angela

After getting so spoiled for her own birthday, Angela decided to treat her partner. Hot News Hip Hop reported that she gifted Yo Gotti a Tesla for his birthday. 

They have both stated that, since getting together, they’ve been happier than ever. Many fans have since gone on to wonder how Bow Wow has handled the news of Angela’s happiness. 

According to Atlanta Black Star, some online commenters joked that Bow Wow would be furious after Angela showed off her boyfriend online last year. One wrote that “Baby Bow Wow” would be “punching the air” after seeing how happy she was with someone else. 

However, Bow Wow has stayed pretty quiet about his ex recently. To be fair, the rapper handled things pretty well a few years ago when questioned about a previous relationship Angela got into with boxer Daniel Jacobs.

In 2020, The Shade Room reported that Bow Wow had responded after seeing the couple on social media. But far from getting jealous, he reportedly said that he was happy for Angela, as well as being a big fan of her boxer boyfriend. He also added that he believed that Angela being with him instead wouldn’t have been the right thing to do. 

So apparently, there are no longer any regrets from Angela or Bow Wow over how things went between them. Hopefully, that means that Bow Wow is now done with commenting on Angela’s posts about their shared past.

Halle Berry Files for Sole Custody

Halle Berry is among the most popular celebrities in Hollywood, with acting credits in dozens of hit movies and TV shows. However, her life hasn’t been as perfect as her films.

RELATED: Are Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Getting Back Together?

She has married and divorced three times and has two children. Now, she is trying to get sole custody in a complicated public legal battle. 

A History of Halle Berry’s Relationships

Halle Berry’s love life is a bit complicated, but it is a big part of her current predicament. She had several bad relationships early in life that ended in pretty nasty disputes.

Her relationship with Christopher Williams notably ended after a physical altercation that caused her to lose most of her hearing in one ear. However, it was later revealed by Eurweb that it was actually Wesley Snipes that struck Halle. 

She then got with baseball player David Justice and the two married a year after meeting. However, that marriage only lasted a few years before they divorced. The breakup put Halle Berry in a depressive slump that had a lasting impact. 

Her next relationship went a little slower as she and singer Eric Benét dated for two years before marrying. Unfortunately, that relationship also soured. The two divorced after only two years of marriage without having any kids.

Halle Berry’s next major relationship was with a model named Gabriel Aubry. The two began dating in 2005 and had a daughter in 2008.

They never married and eventually ended their relationship in 2010. The pair were at the center of a heated and ongoing custody battle for their daughter. 

After the split, Halle Berry married Oliver Martinez. The two had a son together in 2013 and eventually divorced in 2016. Oliver played a pivotal role in the custody battle with Gabriel because Halle planned to move to France to live with him. 

Halle Has Faced Numerous Custody Battles

Gabriel fought the move in court because it would limit his visitation rights. According to People Magazine, the court battle got ugly when Gabriel and Oliver got into a physical altercation that sent both to the hospital.

During the scuffle, Oliver made a citizen arrest of Gabriel. This prompted a judge to issue a restraining order to keep Gabriel away from Oliver and Halle. Gabriel later got his own restraining order against Oliver.

In the end, Halle and Gabriel came to an agreement, but Halle had to pay $16,000 per month in child support. However, this wouldn’t be Halle Berry’s final custody battle as she recently got into a nasty dispute with her ex-husband, Oliver Martinez.

The two currently have joint custody, but Halle is trying to get sole custody as she claims Oliver is not following their agreement. USA Today shared that part of Halle’s reasoning for requesting a change is that her son would reportedly “act out” after spending time with his dad. She also claims that Oliver prioritizes sports over academics. 

She also alleges that Oliver speaks negatively about her, which they agreed not to do in their court settlement. The two previously attended parent coaching sessions, as stated by People Magazine, but those reportedly ended after Oliver stopped going. 

Was Anna Duggar Cropped Out of Jana’s Wedding Pictures?

There’s more drama down at the Duggars. This time, the ‘19 Kids and Counting’ rumors concern Anna, who is married to Josh Duggar, a man convicted on charges relating to child pornography.

This latest hubbub is about whether or not Anna was cropped out of her eldest sister’s wedding photographs. Jana recently married Stephen Wissmann. With 500 or so guests in attendance, the event was well-documented.

Photos and videos were, of course, shared on social media. According to fans, one video, taken by Wissman’s sister, had Anna in the background.

Since her husband’s conviction, Anna has kept a low profile, living as a near recluse, and steering clear of social media. Attending the wedding would have signaled things were about to change.

Fans Immediately Began to Speculate

There’s no shortage of fan theories, especially on Reddit. Rumors are flying across the platforms. It’s a wedding mystery, putting a buzz in the air.

Some fans are sure it was Anna they could see in the video, but to others, the woman in the video just resembles Anna. Many suggested it could have been her sister Susanna.

However, the Duggar plot quickly thickened because Anna wasn’t in the official wedding pictures either. To make it all harder to work out, it wasn’t just Anna that was absent. None of her children were in it when the other Duggar kids and their families were.

Here’s where things get somewhat ironic. Some fans suggested Anna’s branch of the family decided to stay away to avoid attracting the attention of the media. Others think Anna and her family left early either to dodge the traffic or to dodge the media.

The truth is, no one knows for sure if the photo was cropped or even if Anna was at the wedding or not. The Duggars have yet to comment.

The Broader Context: Josh Duggar’s Legal Troubles

That fact Anna would choose to stay away from her daughter’s wedding isn’t surprising. Although she has stood by Josh, even after his conviction, it couldn’t have been easy. Her decision earned Anna sympathy and criticism in equal measure.

Fan reaction was pretty much the same over Anna’s wedding non/attendance. Some understood why she would decide to stay away; others clearly found it difficult to understand why she would want to stay in touch with Duggars at all. It’s a complex situation that makes a good story for the press, which has added its own spoonful of speculation to the mix.

The speculation didn’t appear out of nowhere. The Duggars have a history of guarding their public image, yet, they are a staple of social media.

On Reddit and Instagram, fans dissect every image and video looking for anything to prove their theories. With nothing else to work from, it’s reasonable to assume Anna’s absence was nothing more than a strategic decision.

What’s Going On With KT and Her Husband?

Have you heard the latest “KT gossip” on the Celeb Wives of Nashville subreddit? A recent thread posed a shocking question about Morgan Wallen’s allegedly unhinged baby mama, KT Smith. Although some users didn’t even know KT, others were more sympathetic for a good reason. 

The most recent “unverified tea” discussion about KT is whether she’s expecting a baby with her younger husband, Luke Scornavacco. She’s 29; he’s 22, and the conspiracy theories about their marriage and family plans are running on overdrive.

The OP wanted other Celeb Wives to agree or disagree on whether KT is “prego” in the summer of 2024. If she is, this will be KT’s second child and a younger half-sibling to Morgan’s son, Indigo (nicknamed Indie), who celebrated his fourth birthday in July.

Morgan’s fanbase threw major shade at KT for her quickie wedding to Luke this past April. People Magazine reported on April 8th that KT and Luke “made [a] surprise marriage reveal” on Instagram “just days after getting engaged.” Just two days after her marriage went public, a KT pregnancy rumor appeared in The U.S. Sun

The Sun claimed that KT had “used many clever tactics to keep prying eyes away from her belly” during a photo shoot on March 27th when KT, Luke, and Indie had a “family outing” at a local farm in Tennessee. They described how KT was dressed in “a tiny black sports bra and high-waisted camo pants.” The Sun wrote that KT was “all smiles” with her “arms and knees” strategically placed “over her stomach.”

KT and Luke Have to Face Reality

If KT really was hiding a pregnancy in March, she’d be close to delivering her second baby by now. We all know that hasn’t happened, but it hasn’t stopped the rumor mill from dragging the speculation on for months.

The first commenter on the Reddit thread said they didn’t “think” KT was pregnant. Nothing stopped them from throwing more shade.

They alleged that KT and Luke are “facing the reality” of their “day-to-day” marriage. This user even claimed that KT and Luke “f**ked up making a forever decision like that.”

They were also reading into the videos KT posts on social media. Their unproven opinion is that KT and Luke’s married life is not picture-perfect. The user alleged that KT always talks down to Luke in the videos, and they can imagine Luke thinking to himself, “What did I get myself into?!?!”

KT and Luke have posted a handful of videos for the small number of followers they have on YouTube. If you’ve seen any of these, you can agree or disagree with the conspiracy theory that there’s trouble in paradise.

In one video, Luke complains in the driver’s seat of their car because KT keeps hitting him in the face when she’s tossing stuff into the back seat. The first thing she “accidentally” hits him with is a “steering wheel cover.” Luke mutters, “Excuse you,” as it collides with his face.

Next, KT holds up a yellow dress, and Luke says he wants her “to wear it again.” KT says, “No!” She tosses it, and once again, it whips Luke in the face, and he mutters, “Oww.” It seems to us that KT and Luke were looking for laughs with this video, which KT teasingly captioned, “[I don’t know] what his problem is.”

KT’s Fans Defended Her Relationship

The Reddit user’s shade-throwing comment got 182 upvotes, making it clear that the Celeb Wives aren’t “Team KT.” However, the following user responded with a pretty glowing comment about the newlyweds.

They seemed to want to set the record straight, claiming they “saw” KT and Luke “the other day, and they looked very in love!”

They contended that KT and Luke are “both really sweet.” This user tried to debunk another conspiracy theory about Morgan and KT.

They wrote that it’s “funny”  to them whenever “people claim [that] Morgan hates [KT].” They wrote, “We have seen them out too, and they definitely don’t hate each other.”

If this user sounds like they might be biased because they’re close to KT, they set the record straight on that. They wrote, “I’m not a fan of either of them, but I think a lot of the theories around them are false.” Not surprisingly, this comment received zero upvotes on the Celeb Wives subreddit.

Reddit Users Revisited KT’s Previous Affair

After that, more shade was thrown at KT from every direction, and one user received 94 upvotes for alleging that KT would do “whatever she can to cause speculation” on social media.

This user thinks that KT “craves attention.” They described Luke as “an unemployed 21-year-old,” even though he’s a year older. 

The user added that KT’s marriage to Luke “didn’t get her the clout she thought it would.” They even claimed that KT is now “struggling to get pregnant.” They were far from finished, alleging that KT is now chasing “the next thing” since the honeymoon phase of her marriage is over.

RELATED: Morgan Wallen and KT Smith Co-Parenting Update

Their final blow was a completely out-there bit of shade that KT might “join a new church” and get involved with “a married pastor again for some excitement.” It all goes back to a scandal that involved KT when she was a member of Cross Point Church.

KT’s social media posts from years ago confirm she was a Cross Point Church youth group member. Allegedly, she became involved in a shocking adulterous relationship with a married church official named “Pastor Drew.”

The Couple May Be Dealing with a Loss

While Morgan’s fans are still dusting off this old scandal, another KT rumor was dropped on the thread. If there’s any truth in this, it’s tragic for KT and Luke.

One of the Celeb Wives wrote, “I don’t think she’s pregnant.” They added ominously, “I think something has happened.” 

The only evidence that the user had to go on is KT’s “emotional stories” on Instagram. They wrote how she says “she’s having a bad time,” and she’s posted pictures of “flowers she’s possibly been given.”

The user made their theory much clearer when they described “the heating pad on [KT’s] stomach.” Then, they claimed that they “HATE to speculate on something like this.” 

It’s awful to talk about, and the user acknowledged that it’s a “sensitive” topic,” but they truly believed that KT had “been hinting all week” that she might have lost a baby. Another user “vaguely” remembered that KT allegedly said she had “thyroid issues,” which may be making pregnancy more difficult for her the second time around.

However, other Celeb Wives still think KT and Luke’s marriage is a “facade.” One user alleged that they “predicted” the downfall of KT and Luke “from the day she met him.” 

They wrote, “She’s desperately trying to create the family life she’s never gonna have with Morgan.” The user added that it “actually seemed” that KT and Luke “broke up last October for about three weeks.”

KT Allegedly Has Control Over Luke

They also speculated on Luke’s true feelings since “he’s gotten to see the real KT.” The user alleges that Luke probably “feels stuck” with KT now, although he sometimes acts “like he’s really trying to be happy with her and in the moment.”

They also think that Luke is “really sad” about something, and if there’s a grain of truth in this, it shows Luke’s softer side. The user believes that Luke has “grown close to Indie,” and if he and KT break up, her son will lose “that father figure in their home.”

However, they also describe Luke as “young and inexperienced,” and they claim that KT “loves that naïveté.” They wrote, “She has complete control” over Luke. They alleged that KT is molding him “into anyone she wants him to be.”

Luke, who goes by @lukescorno on social media, seems like a pretty busy guy who’s happy with life. On July 15th, Luke posted an Instagram reel with the caption: “POV: You’re a husband, and your wife needs a better place to keep her blankets.” 

Luke built a small ladder and stained it. At the end of the video, KT arranges her favorite snuggly blankets on the ladder inside their home. She smiles widely at the camera, so maybe all is well for this little family despite the vicious rumors.

Are Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Getting Back Together?

The fate of Bennifer hangs in the balance as Ben and JLo settle their separation. Fans of the celebrity couple have been anxiously awaiting an announcement that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner will be reuniting after years apart. But is that really in the cards?

RELATED: A-Rod Speaks Out About JLo’s Divorce

What will become of Ben and Jennifer’s co-parenting relationship? Will the two get back together soon or are their days as an item ostensibly over? 

Jennifer is Taking a Break from Her Current Partner 

Jennifer and her partner John decided to take a break when Ben and JLo decided to get divorced. In Touch Weekly reported that a source close to Jennifer claimed her ongoing interaction with Ben led to her relationship with John breaking down.

The source had the following to say about how things have been progressing between the two during this stressful period in their lives. “Ben’s been turning to Jen [Garner] for advice and support, and that’s been a big source of annoyance for John. He doesn’t enjoy competing with her ex-husband for her attention.”

The source claimed that Ben was using Jennifer as his personal therapist as he navigated his divorce from JLo. They said that he has basically been running to Jennifer all the time with an endless stream of miniature crises.

Yet, despite his neediness, the source pointed out that Jennifer has continued to be there for Ben. This has driven a wedge between her and her partner John.

No one seems to know for sure just how Ben’s divorce is actually going. However, it’s clear that he has been spending at least some of his time with Jennifer, and the two are wholly committed to raising their kids together. Their future looks complicated at best, but their family seems to be functioning well enough for now.

Ben and Jennifer Have Been Spotted Together 

According to In Touch Weekly, Ben and Jennifer were spotted together a few times as Ben’s divorce came into being. Now, Jennifer is essentially single again and some are implying that the two may reunite soon enough.

When JLo filed for divorce, she and Ben had only been together as a married couple for two years. Ben and Jennifer were spotted together very shortly before JLo filed their divorce papers.

In Touch Weekly’s source claimed that Jennifer’s friends have not shared in her support for Ben and would prefer she kept seeing John. Their relationship has been an on-again-off-again situation in the past though.

According to In Touch Weekly, they actually split back in 2020 for a while and then got back together in 2021. Their current separation could just be them following a similar pattern before getting back together once again.

Jennifer is Committed to their Kids

In Touch Weekly reported that Jennifer has no interest in reconciling with Ben or rekindling their relationship, despite any evidence to the contrary. Instead, she is simply committed to helping him and co-parenting effectively. 

The publication’s source admitted that Jennifer is simply prioritizing her kids and their shared family. She has decided to put their needs above her own, no matter what. That means being there for Ben when he runs into trouble.

So far, Jennifer really has been there for Ben throughout the entire divorce process. It remains to be seen whether or not new feelings can emerge between the two over time.

Miranda Lambert’s Desperate Baby Plans

Despite all of the rumors and questionable behavior exhibited by her husband Brendan McLoughlin, Miranda Lambert is still desperate to have a baby with him, some of her friends are urging her to pump the brakes and slow down.

Miranda Lambert is a country music superstar with a decades-long career in which she’s won countless awards, released several popular songs and records, and has sold millions of albums around the world. Her husband Brendan McLoughlin is a former police officer in New York City.

The pair first met back in 2018 when she was performing on Good Morning America, and the two crossed paths. Soon after, they began dating and their pair married after only knowing each other for a couple of months.

Red Flags

While the marriage was great at first, eventually some issues began to pop up in the relationship. Most notably, Brendan was seen dancing with women who were not Miranda, at her own bar in Nashville. Not only that, but it was caught on camera so there was no way to deny it took place or ignore it.

Despite the women he was dancing with saying that nothing inappropriate took place and no lines were crossed, that sort of behavior is concerning for sure and could signify that the relationship is experiencing some turmoil. Miranda herself brushes off the various rumors about Brendan, and believers that his behavior was a one-off and won’t happen again.

But despite all the outside noise, the pair were recently seen enjoying themselves on an Italian getaway together. Miranda herself posted some photos of the duo exploring, cooking, and enjoying wine together. After the romantic vacation together, Miranda sees having a baby with Brendan as a major priority, whether done naturally and biologically or through a surrogate.

However, according to reports, her friends are urging her to take a second thought and pump the brakes on having a baby. A source said that her friends have said that he humiliated her very recently, and that they’d love to see him behave well for a period of time before she can fully trust him.

Trying to Save The Marriage

If not, they worry that she’s setting herself up for heartbreak. A baby is a serious commitment, and her friends don’t want her to potentially be stuck raising a baby on her own if the relationship doesn’t work out.

Also, while she may brush off the video and the rumors surrounding Brendan, she’s reportedly been very stressed about the relationship in the past, and was worried about the things that Brendan was doing behind her back when she’s not around. She also let this stress leak out into other parts of her life, as she recently stopped a concert to call out fans, which some people saw as rude and unnecessary.

It remains to be seen whether a baby is on the horizon for Miranda and Brendan, or whether she’ll take the advice from her friends and wait a while before making that sort of commitment.

Who Is Pumpkin’s New Man?

Photo Cred: Pumpkin🎃 Instagram

Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird has a new beau! However, fans are concerned about the “Mama June: Family Crisis” star’s new boyfriend; particularly his financial history and previous marriages to the same woman. Let’s take a look at the deets!

Who is Pumpkin?

Lauryn Efird (formerly Shannon and soon-to-be-formerly Efird), who goes by the nickname Pumpkin, is a reality television star. She made her television debut on “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” and its subsequent spin-offs. She is the daughter of Mama June and sister to Anna “Chickadee” Shannon-Cardwell, Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon, and Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson. She has four children and plans to have more.

Pumpkin recorded the song “Moving Up” with Honey Boo Boo. In 2019, she filed to become Honey Boo Boo’s legal guardian in the wake of her mother and then-boyfriend Geno getting arrested for drug-related charges. 

Currently, Pumpkin owns the online clothing store The Sisters Closet.

Who is Pumpkin’s New Boyfriend?

As of August 2024, it appears that Pumpkin is now dating Darrin Kitchens. Darrin is a Macon, Georgia native and is an equipment operator. He works at Vulcan Materials Company, according to his Facebook page.

24-year-old Pumpkin debuted her relationship with Darrin earlier in August 2024 in a Facebook post. “Zach Bryan tonight, How lucky are we 💕” the post is captioned.

In the post, the pair were attending a Zach Bryan concert. Darrin also went with Pumpkin on a work-related trip to Las Vegas this year as well. Fans took to the Facebook post to congratulate Pumpkin on her new and seemingly happy relationship.

“You deserve happiness!!! Enjoy the show and enjoy your company.. hope you and josh are still on good terms because ya’ll DID weather a LOT of storms together..” said one fan.

Pumpkin filed for divorce from her ex Josh Efird earlier this year after six years of marriage. They share custody of their four children.

The Drama Behind Pumpkin’s New Beau

Fans are worried about Pumpkin’s new boyfriend. According to reports, Darrin currently has four different small claims judgments against him in the state of Georgia. The first judgment was filed in 2016 by Darrin’s former landlord for an undisclosed amount of money. The second judgment comes from Midland Funding LLC. This collections company deals with unpaid debt and filed a claim for $1,443 against Darrin in 2019.

The third judgment is from a construction company called WP Land Management. That claim is for $4,667. Darrin’s baby mama Leann Reynolds is also on that judgement. The final judgment comes from Credit Acceptance Corporation, which is an automobile financing firm. That claim is for a whopping $14,060.

There is another interesting thing about Darrin. He was married three times… to the same woman. Darrin married his first wife, Shannon, in 2020. They remarried and divorced three times until divorcing (possibly) for good in 2024.

So, is it a match made in heaven? It makes sense why Pumpkin fans are a little worried about the reality TV star’s new relationship. However, additional details about Darrin’s debt, as well as his severe on-and-off-again relationship with his wife, have not been made public. We also don’t know if the relationship between Pumpkin and Darrin is serious or not. Who are we to judge?
