Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi made a shocking confession recently. He admitted to cheating on his longtime wife, Dorothea Hurley when he was younger. So why did Jon cheat, and why did he want to reveal it now?
He’s been the superstar lead singer of Bon Jovi for decades. Jon reached the height of his fame in the crazy 1980s when scandalous stuff was considered “normal” in rock and roll.
In an unbelievable article published by Complex, Jon was reported to have said, “I’m not a saint.” He even claimed he had “100 girls” in his life at one point.
Complex was referring to Jon’s interview with Michael Strahan on an ABC primetime special, “Halfway There.” Jon is also promoting a docuseries to appear on Hulu called “Thank You, Goodnight.”
That’s when Jon told Michael, “I’m a rock ‘n roll star. I’m not a saint.” He claimed that life was “pretty good” back then, but Jon said that he was never “going to jeopardize” his marriage to Dorothea, even after he cheated on her with countless women.
Jon and Dorothea began dating in high school. Complex reported that they “briefly” split up in 1985, a year after Bon Jovi released their first massive hit album. In 1989, Jon and Dorothea got back together and secretly eloped to Las Vegas.
Dorthea Has Been Absent from Jon’s Recent Screenings
Jon seemed to blame his cheating ways on his big rockstar ego. He gave into the rock ‘n roll lifestyle at the height of Bon Jovi’s popularity when the band spent years touring the world.
He told Michael that his cheating was “a stupid thing to do” and it was “just not worth it.” Then he praised his wife and said that Dorothea was never “afraid to call [him] out on something.” Jon also claimed that no matter where he went in his career, “the ups or the downs, we went there together.”
It sounds like Jon and Dorothea have made peace with his cheating past, but that might not be the case, according to Complex. The outlet wrote that Jon’s “assumed cheating revelations have reportedly infuriated his wife.” They added that Dorothea was “noticeably absent” when Jon’s docuseries was screened in New York City on April 25th.
Complex referenced a Page Six article. Page Six provided more shocking details in a report published the day after the New York screening.
Initially, Page Six alleged that Dorothea “skipped” the New York screening at the IPIC Theater after being forced to sit through Jon’s dirty confessions in a UK screening of his docuseries. Page Six added that Jon “walked the red carpet alone” in New York on a Thursday night.
But later in their report, Page Six admitted that a “source” told them Dorothea had to withdraw from the New York screening “due to an undisclosed illness.” Days later, Page Six reported that Dorothea allegedly had to deal with a bout of COVID.
At the New York City screening, Jon didn’t look like anything was wrong in his marriage. He also told the crowd what he would say to his “younger self,” and you need to hear this.
Jon said he would tell “younger” Jon “to enjoy the moment because the moments are fleeting.” Jon added, “I would have told that kid to look up once in a while and enjoy the ride.”
Denzel Washington warned everyone about Diddy and what really goes on in his head. At the time, it seemed crazy. It turns out that all he said was nothing but the truth.
Diddly wasn’t the innocent boy next door he pretended to be. He was something much worse. So without wasting any time, let’s get into it.
Denzel Washington has always been one of those celebrities who minds his business and never says a single word if he doesn’t have to. He’s kept that energy with the connections he’s made in the industry. It’s easy to see why he isn’t friends with just anyone.
But all of this happened after he had already been friends with Diddy. You see, Denzel and Diddy used to be much closer than they are today.
That was when Diddy didn’t have as much influence and wasn’t the most hated celebrity in the world.
Word on the street is that Diddy’s friendship with Denzel was ruined because Denzel started to notice that certain things were off about Diddy, things he knew he didn’t want to get involved in because if he did it wouldn’t just ruin his career, but his life too. No one can blame him for this. Diddy has a long list of celebrities that he’s ruined just because they associated with him.
Diddy Derailed The Game’s Career
There was The Game, who was linked to Diddy back when he was still an upcoming rapper. Apparently, he and Diddy hung out together so much that they started going shopping and doing things together.
Although neither of them came out to explain the extent of their friendship, everyone knew that they were really close. When Diddy was done with him, he threw him to the curb.
I guess you can say this is why The Game’s career never really lived up to its full potential. When Diddy had cut him off, not everyone was willing to associate themselves with him.
But that’s just the beginning of the drama. Rumor has it that Denzel’s issue had everything to do with Diddy’s freak-off parties.
Apparently, Denzel saw the type of things that were going on there and knew it would only get worse. Before things had the chance to get as bad as he had predicted, he decided to cut Diddy off.
Back in the 90s, when Diddy had started throwing his parties, it wasn’t as crazy as it was now. Back then, the party was mainly about music and entertainment.
It was a means for A-listers to have fun and network with people like themselves and build better business relationships. This was why everyone struggled to get an invite to it.
Not attending didn’t just mean missing out on the chance to associate with some of the biggest stars in the world. It also meant that you might just be missing out on the opportunity that could change your life for good.
Many Celebrities Have Spoken Out Against Diddy
As the years went by, the motive behind Diddy’s parties started to change. Around the same time, Diddy started moving higher up on the industry ladder.
Was it a coincidence? I think not.
What started as an innocent event turned into something else, all thanks to Diddy.
Over the years, several celebrities have spoken about their experiences at Diddy’s parties and the types of things they’ve seen. Let me tell you, most of their comments weren’t speaking well of these parties.
According to Lil Rod, who filed a lawsuit against Diddy, the houses were stashed with cameras in every room. I mean every single room.
Apparently, Diddy did this to record people without their consent, knowing full well that he gave them room to do a whole bunch of illegal stuff at his parties. Starting with substances, apparently, there are tons of illegal substances at Diddy’s parties.
That’s not all. There were also underage girls whom Diddy would bring to entertain some of his guests. Diddy was also allegedly making his guests sign a non-disclosure agreement.
I could go on and on about the allegations against Diddy, but it wouldn’t make them any less disturbing. This wouldn’t be the first time someone spoke about the type of disturbing things Diddy is into.
Diddy Regularly Hosted “Freak-Offs”
Cassie had said it all when she had filed her lawsuit against him. The very same suit that I think we can all agree started Diddy’s downfall.
According to Cassie, Diddy would force her to be intimate with different guys so he could watch her. He would call these freak-offs, which is why his parties were given that name.
Now this has been something Diddy has been doing for a really long time. In 2015, one of Cassie’s close friends, Tiffany Red, revealed that she had seen Diddy force Cassie to leave her birthday party so she could get in bed with some guy he had bought for her.
When Diddy’s team got wind of this, the first thing they did was deny it all. That didn’t come as a surprise to anyone really.
This is where it gets interesting. After weeks of denying everything, Diddy decided to settle with Cassie outside of court so the case wouldn’t escalate beyond its current state.
A lot of people found this strange. If Diddy was as innocent, why did he settle out of court so quickly? He definitely has the money to prove himself innocent.
The only thing that makes sense is that he settled because he knew that the longer the case got, the harder it was going to be for him to win. More of his secrets would be exposed.
Unfortunately for him, his downfall had already begun. Now it’s a waiting game to see how it all plays out.
I guess you can say that Denzel must be really glad he ended his and Diddy’s alleged friendship when he did. If he didn’t, he probably would have gotten roped into all of this alongside the dozens of celebrities tangled up in Diddy’s mess like Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Chris Brown.
On May 7th, Billboard.com reported on a shocking statement from Lainey Wilson. In just a few months, Lainey’s name is going up on a major piece of real estate in downtown Nashville! This announcement came just days after country music fans on Broadway discovered that FGL House—Florida Georgia Line’s destination bar—had closed its doors for good.
Lainey won’t officially “own” the new bar, even though her name will be on it. Florida Georgia Line was in the same situation when FGL House opened in 2017.
Celebrity-branded bars have become huge in Nashville. TC Restaurant Group owns some of these bars. They license an artist’s name for the bar to attract fans to visit and spend money on food and drink.
Is Lainey a big enough star to get a celebrity-branded bar on Broadway? There is another darker side to this story. Following the tragic passing of Riley Strain in March, the Celeb Wives of Nashville shaded celebrity-branded bars in Music City.
The shocking twist in Riley’s case involved celebrity bars in Nashville. It’s now well-known that Riley and his fraternity brothers had visited several celebrity bars the night he went missing. Riley was “kicked out” of Luke Bryan’s branded bar in Nashville before he disappeared.
Broadway Bars Can be Dangerous for Unsuspecting Tourists
The full details and allegations surrounding that night remain unconfirmed. Riley’s mom alleged that he texted her and complained that he’d ordered a drink at one of the celebrity bars that “tasted funny.”
A thread appeared on the Celeb Wives of Nashville Reddit forum. Shockingly, the Celeb Wives started to talk about the dangers that unsuspecting tourists face in these bars on Broadway. One user even called downtown Nashville “a mess.” They alleged that people have slipped substances to others without them knowing it and claimed that people have been “robbed or pick-pocketed.”
On another Celeb Wives of Nashville subreddit, the OP claimed patrons showed up to FGL House during the first weekend in May to find a “closed” sign on the door. The social media accounts for FGL House have also been “deactivated,” which started a big discussion on the Reddit thread.
Shockingly, the OP alleged that FGL House was “moderately busy at best but wasn’t keeping up with” other branded bars. The Redditor even wondered if “we are starting to see the downfall of artist bars on Broadway.”
Lainey probably doesn’t care too much about anonymous users’ comments on Reddit. Her statement began by admitting how “excited” she was to announce Bell Bottoms Up, a branded bar owned by TC Restaurant Group that “will be opening later this summer.” She said she’s “always wanted to create a destination” for her fans and followers “to visit and create new memories at, in the heart of country music city.”
Lainey called Bell Bottoms Up a “permanent destination in Nashville,” which is also her “dream come true.” Lainey claimed that she “can’t wait for all my Wild Horses to get to experience my home away from home.”
FGL House Temporarily Laid Off Their Staff
One Celeb Wives user claimed to have inside information on why FGL House shut down without notice. That comment got other users chiming in.
The insider alleged that FGL closed so abruptly that staff had to be told what to do next. The user wrote, “I worked for TC [Restaurant Group] for years.”
They claimed that all artist-branded bars have “different licensing agreements.” Since Florida Georgia Line is no longer a “band,” their license wasn’t “renewed.”
They also alleged that FGL House staff were “temporarily laid off.” Ex-employees at FGL House were allegedly given the “option” to “interview” for work at the new Morgan Wallend-branded bar or “go on unemployment until Lainey Wilson’s bar opens.”
Another Celeb Wives forum member criticized the “celebrity-themed bar bubble” in downtown Nashville. They questioned, “Morgan Wallen? Lainey Wilson?”
One of the other Celeb Wives agreed that they’re tired of celebrity bars on Broadway. They added, “It doesn’t seem like there’s any sign of them slowing down.” This user also alleged they’d heard “rumors of Jelly Roll” opening a bar “from downtown industry friends,” although they couldn’t “claim any real credibility with that.”
The user also mentioned what’s already been confirmed: Luke Combs, Bon Jovi, and Shania Twain will have branded bars. That confirmation got another one of the Celeb Wives to ask where Shania’s bar was going. They added, “We need more girl power down there.”
Lainey’s Restaraunt Will Replace the FGL House
But not everyone on Celeb Wives loves celebrity-branded bars. One user confessed, “No hate to any country artist, but does anyone else miss the Old Broadway?”
The Billboard article described Lainey as a “Grammy winner and reigning CMA entertainer of the year” who is opening up a “three-story restaurant and bar in partnership with TC Restaurant Group on 120 3rd Ave. South,” replacing the “now-closed FGL House.”
Billboard also described what Lainey’s renovated bar will look like, which sounds pretty impressive! In addition to four bars and a lounge, there will be two stages, including a “first-floor stage and a dining area.”
The rooftop of Bell Bottoms Up will be “1970s western-inspired… with a dance floor, disco-inspired decor, and frozen drinks.” The “basement-level space” will be a look into Lainey’s “Louisiana roots,” including “craft cocktails” and another “live music space.”
According to Billboard, the menu will include “Cajun-inspired entrees and bar foods curated by Wilson.” Lainey is working with the “VP of culinary development” to include her favorite “salads, as well as crawfish, shrimp boils, and boudin.”
Grant Burlingame is the VP of operations at TC Restaurant Group. He claimed that they are “honored” that Lainey “trusted” them “to deliver a venue that is faithful to her story, fans, and love for country music.”
Grant seems to believe that Lainey’s bar will be a huge money-maker. He said, “Fans gravitate to Lainey” because she’s “authentic” and her personality is “down-to-earth.” Grant also calls Lainey “one of the biggest names in country music.”
He said TC Restaurant Group is “proud” to be associated with Lainey, as her venue will bring “another female artist to the forefront of Nashville’s Entertainment District.” In addition to Shania’s bar, Miranda Lambert’s Casa Rosa is one of the only other country female-themed bars in Music City.
Some Celebrities Own Their Own Bars in Nashville
However, some users on the Celeb Wives Reddit forum prefer celebrity bars owned by celebrities. One user alleged that “Garth [Brooks] and Eric [Church] actually own theirs,” and “it’s not just a licensing deal for their names.”
But is Eric’s bar, Chief’s, really safer than any other bar on Broadway? Just days after it opened, Morgan Wallen surprised onlookers when he visited and allegedly threw a chair off the roof that narrowly missed two police officers stationed on the street below.
Unfortunately, crimes and bad deeds can happen anywhere. One of the Celeb Wives alleged that “a lot of nefarious situations happen on Lower Broadway.”
Although Riley Strain’s disappearance made worldwide headlines, one of the Celeb Wives claimed that bad things frequently happen on Broadway. They just are “not common knowledge” unless you hear a personal horror story or something bad happens to you.
They alleged that “professional pickpockets operate” on Broadway, as well as “gangs of cell phone thieves.” The user even claimed that local Apple Store employees have talked to plenty of tourists who need to buy new iPhones when theirs get “stolen” after a night in downtown Nashville.
Lainey Hosted a Pop-Up Event for Charity
People Magazine reported on May 7th that FGL House was officially closed on May 6th. Lainey was excited to tell her fans and followers about her new bar in an Instagram Reel on May 7th.
PR Newswire announced in March that Lainey had collaborated on a “My Bourbon Bar Pop-Up in Nashville” in April. The pop-up included Lainey-inspired cocktails like “Wildflowers Old Fashioned,” “Buckle Up,” and “Wild Horses Manhattans,” and she helped to create the recipes. So, was Lainey just getting a taste of what branding her own bar in Nashville would be like?
As PR Newswire reported, Lainey’s bourbon pop-up was actually a fundraising event for her charity, Heart Like A Truck. “100% of proceeds from the pop-up experience” went to various causes that Lainey supports.
Lainey was “so excited” that all the proceeds would “help give back to communities and organizations across the globe.” Let’s hope that Bell Bottoms Up is just as worthwhile an experience.
But Ming has been keeping her personal life out of the public eye.
She’s been more focused on her career.
Ming Lee Simmons Follows in Mother’s, Kimora Lee Simmons, Footsteps
She is following in the footsteps of her mother, Kimora Lee Simmons, who started out as a model and later went on to own and run her company Baby Phat.
The Observer described Ming as a model, businesswoman and content creator.
She has more than 1.5 million followers on social media.
Ming currently works with her mother at Baby Phat, the lifestyle brand that was founded in 1999.
According to the Observer, the company shut down after Kimora left it on September 1, 2010.
At the time, Kimora decided not to renew her contract with the parent company that owned Baby Phat, the Kellwood Company.
Russell Simmons, Kimora’s ex-husband and Ming Lee’s dad, had previously sold the company to The Kellwood Company for $140 million in 2004.
After Kimora left in 2010, the Kellywood Company sold the company to Sun Capital Partners.
They went on to sell it to an undisclosed buyer.
And then on International Women’s Day in 2019, Kimora announced that she had acquired the company once again, but wouldn’t reveal who she had purchased the company from.
Ming Lee Said “I Have a New Collection Dropping Soon With My Mom …’
Both Ming and Aoki were reportedly instrumental in the company’s relaunch.
In an interview with Refinery 29 last September, Ming explained that she had a new line launching with Baby Phat soon.
In the interview, she said,
“I have a new collection dropping soon with my mom that is fun and flirty. It’s made to make you comfortable and express yourself.”
Ming told Entertainment Tonight that she studied fashion in school, and she really loved working with her mom, so she was going to start there.
In her 2024 interview with the Observer, she said that she was basically a creative director at the company.
And what was cool about Baby Phat was that girls her age, like Ice Spice, were so into it, and her mom’s friends were also all about the comeback.
Ming studied fashion at New York University where she did an individualized study program that focused on fashion business and consumer behavior.
She described her time there as amazing, but she told Entertainment Tonight that because it was COVID, everything got shut down and everything moved online.
So her whole generation had a really hard time.
Ming Lee Simmons’ Modeling Career
Like her mother and sister, Ming has also worked as a model.
As well as modeling for her Kimora’s clothing collections, she’s also been a part of Kim Kardashian’s campaigns for SKIMS.
And for Kim’s sister, Khloe Kardashian’s Good American brand campaign too.
While speaking to W magazine, Ming said that she grew up on the runway, walking with her mom and sister at the end of every Baby Phat show during fashion week in New York.
She added that she’d been in ads with both Kimora and Aoki since she was 2 years old.
But it was only recently that she’d realized how uncommon that was, and she shared that she was deeply appreciative of those experiences.
The interviewer for the Observer revealed that Ming’s photoshoot was over sooner than expected on the day of the interview,
Because she was so good at her job.
They wrote that modeling seemed to be effortless for her.
Her sister’s modeling career has been more runway show oriented, she’s walked for designer brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Dolce & Gabbana and Lacoste.
But Ming reportedly told the interviewer that she preferred doing photoshoots, and she wasn’t sure if runway modeling was for her.
Kimora Lee Simmons’ Daughters, Ming Lee and Aoki Lee, Have Different Career Paths
Ming also opened up about how she and Aoki wanted different things in life.
She explained that she loved her sister so much and she loved working with her on Baby Phat.
However, outside that, they were both creating their own image separately from one another, and trying to not be paired together as much as when they were younger.
They wanted separate careers, but she added that they would always be together, she was like her other half.
Ming has been pretty vocal about her appreciation for her family.
Aside from Aoki, she also has three younger siblings from Kimora who she’s reportedly very close to.
According to Refinery 29, Ming considers her mom as her best friend.
In her interview with Hypebae in 2023, she said that she really kept her grounded.
She’d done an amazing job of supporting her and her siblings while also doing her best to make them aware of their privilege.
Ming also told W magazine that at some point in the future, she wanted to be where her mother was at in her life.
Russell Simmons Cryptic Message Allegedly Meant for His Ex Wife, Kimora Lee Simmons
She hasn’t talked about her relationship with her father Russell Simmons in the same way though.
Last year she did share a social media post which US weekly described as a snub to him.
On Father’s Day in 2023, Ming uploaded a picture of herself with her mom, and praised HER instead of her dad.
Russell then took to his Instagram and shared a mysterious message which was allegedly meant for his ex wife-
“Stop telling fathers they should have fought harder to see their children and start asking mothers why he had to fight at all.”
Aoki responded to it the next day by sharing a video about her father in which she criticized him and his past actions.
The Simmons’ Public Family Feud
She claimed that he had bullied Ming, and that he once even sent a man to her apartment to scare her.
US weekly also revealed that Kimora joined in the public feud on social media when she shared an Instagram story telling Russell to leave her kids alone.
She said that his threats, lies, intimidation maneuvers and tactics were sad.
Russell eventually ended up posting an apology message to Ming and Aoki.
He wrote that he was DEEPLY sorry for being frustrated and yelling, but that there were no conditions, he loved them more than he loved himself.
Ming Lee Determined to Carve Out Her Own Path
According to Tuko, Ming isn’t seeing anyone at the moment.
But Amomama revealed that she went Instagram official with her boyfriend Taimaru when she was 18 years old. They reportedly went to her prom together.
Since then, she’s been linked to Swae Lee, but neither of them confirmed that they were ever together.
Ming has talked openly about how she would like to stay in the industry that she’s in now.
She told Entertainment Tonight that in the future, she hoped she’d be doing something with her own fashion brand.
Because fashion was what made her really happy.
She also shared that she knew her last name had a lot of influence in the industry, but she wanted to carve out her own path.
While speaking to Hypebae, she said that she understood that she needed to work hard and prove herself to be able to stand on her own.
And as for what she’s doing outside of her work as a model and fashion designer, she also spoke with Refinery 29 about what other plans she has.
While it doesn’t seem like she’s planning to date a much older man like her sister Aoki any time soon, she did talk about wanting to travel like Aoki and her much older boyfriend did recently.
She said, “I’m still trying to find my footing, but I want to travel and see the world. I love fashion, and when I travel, I get inspiration.”
It’s definitely obvious that Ming is one of the quieter members of her family.
Over the last year, the world has watched as Russell, Kimora, and Aoki have made their family issues public for everyone to see.
And although Ming did post a Father’s Day post for her mom, not for her dad, she didn’t say anything else about her issues with Russell beyond that.
Meanwhile, Aoki went live on Instagram to discuss just how bad things had gotten with him.
Then Russell made his own statement back.
Russell Simmons’ Lawsuits
But things got even worse when he got sued twice at the beginning of 2024, just days apart.
First, he got sued by an unnamed former Def Jams Recording executive, who claimed that he SA’d her.
Then two days later, Drew Dixon, who is believed to be a second former Def Jam Recordings executive, sued Russell for defamation after she accused him of SA and battery and he claimed that she was making the claims for her own gain.
No one in Russell’s family, including Ming and Aoki, have spoken out about the claims against their father.
However, Russell did, in an interview on “In Depth with Graham Bassinger,” saying:
“I’ve never been violent to anybody. Of course I’ve been insensitive, but certainly never been forceful in any of my relationships, all of which I’ve had have been consensual.”
Former Teen Mom sensation will be returning to our screens very soon.
Five years after MTV reportedly fired her, the network has confirmed the news that Jenelle will be a part of the upcoming season of Teen Mom: The Next Chapter.
They did this by releasing the first trailer for the series, and also through a press release which gave some more insight into the situation.
According to The Ashley, the press release emphasized that Jenelle is not currently a full time cast member.
Instead, she will be making a “special appearance” on the show.
This seems to align with what was being said in rumors for weeks before the release of the trailer featuring Jenelle.
Teen Mom Star, Jenelle, Said, ‘… It Will Be Good to Have a Fresh Start’
Sources had previously said that Jenelle would be returning to the show “in some form”, but was not involved for much of the filming.
In the trailer, Jenelle could be heard saying, “I think it will be good to have a fresh start.”
Reports from outlets like Page Six have suggested that the show will focus on the early days of Jenelle’s life after her split from husband David Eason.
During this time, Jenelle claimed that she had gone through some “life-changing moves.”
And it’s definitely true to say that Jenelle’s life has been pretty crazy since her relationship with David started to break down.
This was reportedly because the Teen Mom 2 star had made several calls to the local sheriff’s office since her split with David.
The Ashley first reported that officers were called to Jenelle’s place to deal with so-called “family issues” between her and her ex.
In one particular police report from last week, Jenelle apparently called the cops claiming that several personal items of hers had been stolen.
She went on to seemingly allege that the items had been stolen by David in February.
The report stated that Jenelle had called the authorities alleging that someone had taken her driver’s license, wallet and several of her credit cards, and was refusing to return them.
Jenelle told the police that she had been the victim of “larceny”.
Although she didn’t mention David by name, her description of the person who allegedly took her belongings matched his description, according to The Ashley.
In the police report, the offender is listed as a 35-year-old white male resident.
On a separate occasion, police were again at Jenelle’s home following what was called Family Offenses.
The suspect was listed as having the exact same description, once again allegedly resembling David.
The Ashley reported that both of the incidents at Jenelle’s home are currently listed as “active”.
Jenelle has made a lot of accusations about David’s behavior since filing for separation.
Jenelle Subjected to Harassment By Her Ex, David Eason
In a video posted on TikTok, she claimed that she had been subjected to harassment by her ex.
She said in the video, “He can continue to harass me, try to show up to my house every day with cops, text me horrible mean things every day, take my things.”
As she alluded to in the video, Jenelle isn’t the only one who has made contact with the police since the relationship ended.
David has allegedly called the cops at least once in the last few weeks.
Incident reports showed that he had asked officers to assist him with trying to retrieve scuba equipment from Jenelle’s house.
David Eason Aired Some of Ex-Couple’s Dirty Laundry
Like Jenelle, David has also taken to TikTok recently to air some of the ex-couple’s dirty laundry.
He claimed that the reason that he and Jenelle separated was really all about her.
David said, “Why did we split? Because Jenelle cheated on me. She’s been cheating for years actually.”
He also said that since the end of their marriage, he has been “so happy” to have his friends back, after Jenelle allegedly “pushed” them out of his life.
For her part, Jenelle reportedly filed for legal separation because of what she called “concerning and disturbing behavior” from David.
She also accused him of excessively spending her money, refusing to find work himself.
David and Jenelle were married for 6 years following 2 years of dating, and had their first child shortly after their wedding.
Jenelle’s Other Ex, Nathan Griffith, Gave an Exclusive Response
Jenelle has also had to deal with problems involving her other ex, Nathan Griffith.
Nathan reportedly spoke out about the alleged recent CPS investigation into Jenelle.
According to an online fan page, Nathan gave an exclusive response following the news that his Teen Mom ex is no longer being investigated.
In his alleged response, Nathan said that he “just wants what’s best for his son”.
Nathan is the father of Jennelle’s son, Kaiser.
When Nathan was allegedly asked by the fan page if he would be fighting for custody of Kaiser, he had this to say.
“I’m not in a position to go to court. I just want what’s best for my son. That’s all I want”.
He was then asked if he was disappointed that CPS was ending the investigation into Jenelle and her husband David Eason.
Nathan was reported to have said in response, “I’m not happy or mad. I think the agents did a[n] investigation and came to a conclusion based on the facts”.
The fan page asked Nathan when was the last time he had seen his son.
He allegedly answered that he had not visited his child in “over a year or more”.
When queried about the state of his co-parenting relationship with Jenelle, Nathan allegedly stated, “We’re stable, we don’t fight. We haven’t fought in a long time”.
Jenelle’s Controversial Return to Reality TV Show Teen Mom
However, Jenelle might find herself involved in confrontations with others due to her decision to return to Teen Mom.
The Ashley reported a few days ago that some of the other cast members were “very upset” to discover that Jenelle would be joining them.
It all started after a photo of Jenelle was posted on several media outlets last week.
The picture showed Jenelle hanging out in Florida with another member of the Next Chapter cast, Briana DeJesus.
No context was given for the photo, which was the first seed of the rumors about Jenelle’s return that have now been confirmed as true.
But after the photo emerged, a source from behind the scenes shared some gossip about some of the other stars’ feelings about Jenelle coming back.
The source first said, “Only a few cast members were aware of what was happening until the photo came out.”
What Some Teen Mom Cast Said About Jenelle’s Return to Show
They then continued, “Some of the girls are very upset that Jenelle is getting to be on Next Chapter, despite everything that’s happened.”
This could be down to the competitive nature of the cast selection, with spots on Next Chapter being highly sought after by other Teen Moms.
Some of the girls apparently expected Jenelle to make a comeback however, due to everything that’s happened to her lately.
The source said, “They knew when Jenelle dumped David that MTV would come calling. But I think most of them assume she would be put on Teen Mom Family Reunion and not Next Chapter.”
The fact that she did was described as “a slap in the face” to some of the other Teen Mom stars.
Whether this bad blood will be a part of the upcoming season, we’ll just have to wait to find out.
In Touch Weekly reported last week that the estranged couple will be in court together as Jace testifies that his former stepfather physically attacked him.
This means that Jace will be appearing before the Superior court.
Jenelle Evans’ Son, Jace, Said, ‘… He Hates David’
An insider close to Jenelle talked to the US Sun about the situation.
And what they revealed was wild.
The source said that Jace wasn’t only committed to testify.
He was actually excited about being able to take the stand against David.
The source said, “Jace is adamant about going to testify. He can’t wait to take the stand, he hates David.”
The reason for Jace’s supposed hated for David relates to a shocking alleged incident that took place last year.
This was reportedly the third time Jace had attempted to run away from the house he shared with Jenelle and David.
The third time, he ran to his grandmother, Barbara Evans, and told her what David had allegedly done.
David Eason Charged With Child Abuse and Felony Assault
This happened after he was allegedly assaulted by David outside a neighbor’s home.
Jace will reportedly be testifying that David actually strangled him.
David was later charged with child abuse and felony assault by strangulation.
A court spokesperson revealed a little more about the ongoing case last January.
The source said, “They found enough evidence to take his case out of district court, where misdemeanors are held, and bring it to a superior.”
Alleged Assault Captured on Neighbor’s Camera
A couple of weeks before the alleged assault took place, In Touch had reported that Jace had been hospitalized for “mental health evaluation.”
While he was under care in hospital, some more disturbing events were taking place back in the family home.
Two days after Jace was recovered by police, sources reported that his mom and stepdad were under investigation by CPS.
This was because visible marks had been found on Jace’s neck and arm by medics.
Some of the evidence reported in the case seems pretty damning.
The alleged assault outside the neighbor’s home was reportedly captured on camera.
A Ring camera on the property reportedly recorded the incident, and was taken in by CPS and police for investigation.
David was accused of “willingly harming” and inflicting physical injury to Jace that caused “marks on the right arm and left and right side of the neck.”
Following the reports, David obviously became the focus of a lot of criticism.
Jenelle Evans Said, ‘… Forgot You Can’t Trust Cops …’
But Jenelle seemed ready to stick by her man through it all.
She was actually hit with a gag order as part of the CPS case due to her social media posts expressing support for David.
She had described the police investigation as “one sided.”
The reality star also wrote in a longer Instagram post, “They didn’t conduct interviews. Didn’t ask any information from the parents.”
She continued, “This seems like a very bias situation like every time before. I trusted the detective with all my heart. Forgot you can’t trust cops. Silly me. I do not trust anyone around me.”
Jenelle Evans’ Ex, Nathan Griffin, Speaks Out
The whole situation also brought her into conflict with one of her exes, Nathan Griffin.
Nathan reportedly spoke out after reports surfaced about the CPS investigation into her and David.
According to an online fan page, Nathan gave an exclusive response following the news that his Teen Mom ex is no longer being investigated.
In his alleged response, Nathan said that he “just wants what’s best for his son”.
Nathan Said, ‘… I Just Want What’s Best for My Son …’
Nathan is the father of Jennelle’s other son, Kaiser.
When Nathan was allegedly asked by the fan page if he would be fighting for custody of Kaiser, he had this to say.
“I’m not in a position to go to court. I just want what’s best for my son. That’s all I want”.
He was then asked if he was disappointed that CPS was ending the investigation into Jenelle and David.
Nathan was reported to have said in response, “I’m not happy or mad. I think the agents did an investigation and came to a conclusion based on the facts”.
The fan page asked Nathan when was the last time he had seen his son.
Why Nathan Hasn’t Visited His Child in “Over a Year or More’
He allegedly answered that he had not visited his child in “over a year or more”.
When queried about the state of his co-parenting relationship with Jenelle, Nathan allegedly stated, “We’re stable, we don’t fight. We haven’t fought in a long time”
Jenelle shares Jace with her other ex Andrew Lewis.
The first time Jace was reported missing was in August last year.
He was later found “in the trees behind the school building” according to his location on Snapchat.
It was just a matter of days before he attempted to escape again.
Jenelle contacted police after her son went missing for several hours.
He was later found at a gas station about 10 minutes away from the house.
It was pretty obvious that there was something about his homelife that Jace wanted to get away from.
Nothing has yet been proved about David.
But Jace will now definitely be given his day in court to share what he believes happened that day.
Jenelle’s Controversial Return to MTV
Whether or not any of this will be covered in the new season of Teen Mom: Next Chapter, we will just have to wait and see.
It was recently confirmed that Jenelle would indeed be appearing on the show in a controversial return to MTV.
Five years after MTV reportedly fired her, the network has confirmed the news that Jenelle will be a part of the upcoming season.
They did this by releasing the first trailer for the series, and also through a press release which gave some more insight into the situation.
According to The Ashley, the press release emphasized that Jenelle is not currently a full time cast member.
Instead, she will be making a “special appearance” on the show.
This seems to align with what was being said in rumors for weeks before the release of the trailer featuring Jenelle.
Sources had previously said that Jenelle would be returning to the show “in some form”, but was not involved for much of the filming.
In the trailer, Jenelle could be heard saying, “I think it will be good to have a fresh start.”
Reports from outlets like Page Six have suggested that the show will focus on the early days of Jenelle’s life after her split from husband David Eason.
Jenelle Told Police She’s Been the Victim of ‘Larceny’
During this time, Jenelle claimed that she had gone through some “life-changing moves.”
And it’s definitely true to say that Jenelle’s life has been pretty crazy since her relationship with David started to break down.
In one particular police report from last week, Jenelle apparently called the cops claiming that several personal items of hers had been stolen.
She went on to seemingly allege that the items had been stolen by David in February.
The report stated that Jenelle had called the authorities alleging that someone had taken her driver’s license, wallet and several of her credit cards, and was refusing to return them.
Jenelle told the police that she had been the victim of “larceny”.
Although she didn’t mention David by name, her description of the person who allegedly took her belongings matched his description, according to The Ashley.
The list of charges against David continues to pile up.
38-year-old Ronnie finally met Justin May, who got engaged to Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola in March. The shocking moment between Ronnie and Sammi’s fiance appeared on the most recent episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.
The Shocking Moment Between Ronnie Ortiz-Magro and Sammi Giancola’s Fiance, Justin
The Family Vacation episode on May 9th shows most of the Jersey Shore cast enjoying themselves at a “group dinner” in Arizona, but someone was initially missing.
In Touch revealed that 35-year-old Justin and 37-year-old Sammi “were already in Arizona for the trip.” Then, Ronnie appeared to join the group seated at the restaurant. So, how twisted did it get?
In Touch said Justin was “cordial” as Ronnie approached him and Sammi. While In Touch claimed that Ronnie greeted “everyone” and “shook Justin’s hand,” they also revealed that Ronnie “did not interact” with Sammi. At least no harsh words were exchanged between these infamously bitter exes!
How Jersey Shore Cast Responded to Ronnie and Justin’s Encounter
But the rest of the Jersey Shore cast, including Paul “Pauly D” Delvecchio, had plenty to say about what happened between Ronnie and Justin.
Pauly D exclaimed that he “didn’t expect that to happen,” he seemed impressed with how Sammi’s fiance behaved when he admitted, “Justin is such a standup guy for doing that. I think that’s a really respectable move.”
Vinny Guadagnino admitted during the group dinner that he didn’t predict a friendly greeting between Ronnie and Justin, joking, “That wasn’t on my Bingo card.” Angelina Pivarnick sounded equally surprised and relieved when she commented, “That was nice.”
Sammi Giancola Said, She Made ‘The Right Choice With the Right Guy’
While Sammi didn’t “interact” with Ronnie at the group dinner, In Touch reported what Sammi said to Justin as Ronnie moved on to hug the rest of the cast. She simply told him, “You’re a good sport.”
Obviously, the Family Vacation producers pre-planned this meeting at the group dinner, but that doesn’t mean Sammi wanted it to happen.
She did a confessional on the episode to express her feelings about Justin and Ronnie coming face-to-face. She called Justin her boyfriend because they weren’t yet engaged, and Sammi confessed that her initial feeling was, “Ah, no!’ I don’t want my boyfriend and my ex shaking hands. Nobody wants that.”
But as her confessional continued, Sammi had a shocking change of heart. She revealed, “At the end of the day, I would rather have this be peaceful than one of the most uncomfortable, awkward situations.” Then Sammi praised Justin, too, saying how reassured she felt that she’d made “the right choice with the right guy.”
Ronnie Said, There’s ‘Better Chance’ of Becoming Friends With Justin ‘Before Me and Sam’
In Touch wrote that 36-year-old Vinny and Ronnie had a heart-to-heart the day after that group dinner, and Ronnie revealed that he had run into Justin again. What happened this time?
Ronnie explained he was at the hotel gym that morning, and Justin was working out at the same time. Did they have a confrontation?
According to Ronnie, Justin “said, ‘What’s up?’” and he answered, “Good morning.” He admitted to Vinny, “That was it.”
That wasn’t all that Ronnie told Family Vacation producers, though. In Touch reported just how Ronnie feels about Justin, and you might not believe this.
He told the producers that he thinks he has a “better chance” of becoming friends with Justin “before me and Sam.” Even Ronnie complimented Justin, claiming that the handshake they shared at the group dinner “showed maturity.” Ronnie added that he was “happy” that things went as smoothly as they did.
Will Sammi and Ronnie Ever Become Friends Again?
At least it sounded like Sammi and Ronnie could now agree on something: Justin is a “good sport” who showed “maturity.” Is there any hope that Sammi and Ronnie will ever be cordial to each other, even if friendship is out of the question?
According to In Touch, there’s little hope for Sammi and Ronnie to become friends. They spilled all the tea in an article published on April 11th about the “awkward reunion” between the exes at another Family Vacation destination.
The Jersey Shore gang went to Nashville for an episode of their reality show, and here’s a crazy side note: according to an MTV “tally,” the cast used the word “awkward” a shocking 237 times to describe the first meeting between Ronnie and Sammi since their explosive breakup in 2014.
The episode aired on April 11th, and Ronnie “joined the group” at their rental house in Nashville, just like he arrived later at the group dinner in Arizona.
Ronnie Wants His Reunion With Sammi to Be ‘Organic’
But as In Touch revealed, Ronnie had lunch plans with the boys after he landed at the airport and before he came face-to-face with Sammi again.
Ronnie joined Pauly D, Vinny, and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino for a lunch huddle. Then, the guys returned to the rental house, where “Sammi was waiting in the living room.”
At least Sammi had her girl squad to back her up at the rental house. In Touch reported that Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Jenni “JWoww” Farley, and Angelina were waiting inside with Sammi.
So, how did Ronnie feel in that dramatic moment? Shockingly, he claimed that he wanted his reunion with Sammi to be “organic.” He didn’t explain what he meant by that, and Ronnie even confessed, “I don’t really have a plan going into the house and seeing Sam.”
At least he did take the first step, go into the house, and say “hello.” Ronnie said beforehand, “I feel like I’m just going to be myself.” As the episode played out, Ronnie did seem like himself—at least he was to the other Jersey Shore ladies.
The ‘Cringeworthy’ Reunion Between Ronnie and Sammi
He gave “individual hugs” to Snooki, Jenni, and Angelina. But as In Touch reported, Sammi “remained seated” in the living room while Ronnie “made his rounds.” They couldn’t hide from each other forever, and finally, Ronnie “mumbled, “Hey, how are you?” to a silent Sammi. After that, In Touch wrote that Ronnie “moved on,” but then, they reported that the situation got “cringeworthy.”
Snooki gave a first-hand account in her confessional during the episode. She described the scene as “Ron… literally hugging everyone, and then he sees Sammi.” She said she thought to herself, “Oh my god, I wanna die,” and you can only imagine how Sammi felt when Snooki revealed, “It’s so cringe, I’m so embarrassed.”
In Touch described the “awkward silence” on the couch after Sammi and Ronnie’s reunion. Then, “the group went their separate ways to get ready for dinner.”
When she was alone with her girls, Sammi claimed that she felt “OK” seeing Ronnie again. Was that the real truth?
Sammi Said, ‘I Feel Nothing. He Doesn’t Affect Me …’
Sammi also confessed she “wasn’t expecting anything,” and while Snooki described feeling “cringe” and “embarrassed,” Sammi made a shocking confession about her true feelings.
She said, “I feel nothing. He doesn’t affect me. You guys are working on friendships. I have no need to work on a friendship.” Did Ronnie feel the same way?
Shockingly, Ronnie told the guys in another room that he felt it “worked out well” seeing Sammi again after all the scandals that ripped them apart. Maybe Ronnie was remembering their terrible past when he added, “[it] could have been worse.”
The Family Vacation producers tried to lighten up the awkwardness at the group dinner in Nashville with a spicy chicken eating challenge, and In Touch confirmed that Ronnie and Sammi “sat apart from one another.”
Thankfully, the contest worked for Sammi, who claimed, “I actually am enjoying myself.” She added that the “whole dinner and challenge” was a great “distraction” for her. Sammi claimed she wasn’t “worrying about anything or anyone” and was “just having fun.”
Sammi Confessed, ‘I’m Going to Explode’
But since this is Jersey Shore, fun isn’t always the most compelling entertainment for the viewers, and In Touch reported that “things took a turn” when Vinny decided to bring up “the infamous note” from season 2 of the OG Jersey Shore.
JWoww and Snooki wrote the note, and it spilled the tea about “Ron cheating on Sam in Miami” back in the day.
In Touch wrote that Sammi had been “able to joke” about the note before, but it seemed that Sammi didn’t want to bring up the past again in front of Ronnie in Nashville. Sammi snapped at Vinny that it wasn’t “funny,” and In Touch reported that Sammi looked “visibly annoyed.”
Later, Sammi recounted that disastrous part of the group dinner in a confessional. She felt that Vinny “really ruined it,” and it sounded like Sammi was at her boiling point.
She revealed that she had been “cool, calm, and collected about the whole Ron situation,” but she couldn’t take what Vinny did “lightly.” Justin was not on this trip, and hopefully, Sammi’s fiance can help her control her emotions going forward. After the group dinner in Nashville, Sammi confessed, “I’m going to explode.”
This was first highlighted thanks to MTV Reality Tea’s Instagram page, which shared a post from Catelynn’s account. The former Teen Mom star wrote a lengthy statement in which she vented about her frustration at what she claimed was going on.
Catelynn Spoke Out About the Carly Drama
She started her post by saying that adoption was “wild”. She went on to say that she felt like she was “at the mercy of someone that can say no,” which seemed to be a reference to the family denying her wish to see her daughter.
Before continuing her vent, she made sure to stress to her followers that she was fully aware that it had originally been her own decision.
She addressed this by writing in brackets, “I know I chose this no need to tell me.” Catelynn then went on to claim that Carly’s guardians, Brandon and Teresa Davis, had previously told her biological parents that they were loved and “blessed”.
However, she then criticized them for not even being able to take out two days in a year to meet up. Even a simple plan like dinner or meeting in a park was impossible, according to the post, even if Catelynn offered to travel to Brandon and Teresa.
It Could Take a Year Before Catelynn and Tyler See Carly Again
She went on to voice her concern that she and Tyler would not be able to see Carly until she turned 16. At that age, Carly had more legal freedom to decide if she herself wanted to see her mom and dad. Teen Mom fans will know that Carly will be turning 15 in a couple of days.
So it could still be over a year before her parents are finally able to see her again. However, despite her emotional plea on Instagram, not a lot of fans felt all that much sympathy for Catelynn and Tyler’s plight.
One fan on Reddit even described Catelynn’s complaints as “disgusting.” They wrote, “Always the victim. If I were Carly’s parents I would think twice about her being around them too.”
They went on to suggest a possible reason why Brendon and Teresa might be hesitant about allowing a lot of contact between Carly and her parents.
Catelynn and Tyler Caught a Lot of Flack From Fans
The Teen Mom couple caught a lot of flack a year ago after it emerged that Tyler had joined OnlyFans. The Sun reported in 2023 that Catelynn first shared the news on Instagram, writing, “You have all been asking and it’s finally here.”
Tyler reshaped the post, confirming for many fans that the couple had finally gone too far. One wrote in the comments that it was “very interesting that they are all of a sudden so very accepting” of adult work.
Others paid more attention to the crazy price Tyler was asking for on his account, with one writing that $30 was “the best joke I’ve heard all year.”
A third said, “Nobody has asked for this.”
According to Tyler, the account would be in the total control of Catelynn, while he would simply be posing with his shirt off for pictures.Reports from a year earlier showed that the whole idea seemed to have been Catelynn’s to begin with.
Catelynn Urged Tyler to Join OnlyFans
In 2022, People magazine reported that the Teen Mom had been “urging” her husband to join the controversial website since fans first started noticing his amazing body transformation. Tyler had reportedly lost 17 pounds in less than 20 weeks.
Catelynn later told interviewers, “I’m trying to get him to sign up for OnlyFans.” The reason for this seemed to be purely financial. She explained, “Boy, we could be racking in some dough. We’ll never have to work a day in our lives if you start an OnlyFans.”
But although there may have been money to be made, the decision seemed to cost the couple the sympathy of many Teen Mom fans. And after it was revealed that they were not being allowed to see Carly, many of the comments were merciless.
Catelynn and Tyler put Carly up for adoption in 2009 during their first season of 16 & Pregnant. The emotional moment brought many viewers to tears when the show was first aired. The decision was obviously a hard one, but not one that Catleynn has ever claimed to have doubted was the right call.
Did Catelynn Regret Giving Up Carly for Adoption?
In a 2021 interview with E! News, Catelynn said that she was still proud of her choice, and had never regretted it. She said, “I think sometimes we think about how weird it would be to have an 11 year old right now. That would be crazy.”
She continued, “We know that we made the right decision. We don’t ever second guess that decision at all.” Catelynn went on to state what she thought would have happened if she and Tyler had kept Carly. She said, “We don’t really think honestly that we would be together.”
Although Carly was adopted, the couple seemed to be in regular contact with their daughter for years afterwards. Just last year, People reported that Carly had been to see her parents as well as her three sisters.
Catelynn shared a photo on Instagram showing the whole family walking away in a black and white picture. She wrote, “Had an amazing visit with our girl. She’s funny, kind, smart, goofy and stunning.”
She went on to add, “Adoption is hard and saying goodbye time and time again is soooo hard!!” Although it must be emotionally difficult, Catelynn’s admission did confirm that Carly had seen her and Tyler many times.
What Happened Between the Couple and Carly’s Parents?
So what exactly happened to provoke Catelynn’s most recent post in which she seemed to hint that it was now impossible for Carly to see them.
While many pointed to Tyler’s OnlyFans account as a potential red flag, another reason that was suggested was more brutal. A lot of fans on Reddit were pretty confident that it was Carly herself who didn’t want to meet up with her parents again.
One wrote, “Maybe Carly doesn’t want to see them… have they thought of that?” Another commenter agreed, suggesting that it was their daughter who didn’t want to see them but Brandon and Teresa who were “taking the heat”.
Another fan pointed out that it would be very easy for Carly to get in touch with Catelynn and Brandon if she actually wanted to.
They wrote, “A teenager that wants to get in contact with someone can easily do that in today’s world. It’s not like she can’t get access to a cell phone and contact T&C through social media.” They went on to tell Catelynn to “put 2+2 together, Carly isn’t interested in contacting them.
Fans Appear to Be Supportive of Carly’s Adopted Parents
There was a lot of support for Carly’s adopted parents, who many agreed ”are just taking the blame to protect her, since that’s what good parents do.” It was suggested that Carly might be “embarrassed” about what her friends probably already know about Catelynn and Tyler’s personal lives, including an OnlyFans account.
While it is pretty brutal to see so many people being unsympathetic to Catelynn’s situation, her post did hint that she kind of expected that reaction. But that probably doesn’t make it any easier.
She finished her rant by writing, “Sorry I had to vent because I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that you ‘love’ us and ‘care’ about us but refuse to make time.”
Whether her words were really directed at Brandon and Teresa, or else at Carly herself, fans will continue to speculate about.
Three years ago, Giuliana Rancic made the shocking decision to leave E! for a new job at HSN. Now, she has come forward to talk about what her life has been like since the big transition.
In a recent interview with People, Giuliana said that even though she may not be with E! Anymore, she’s still a big fan of the network.
She said that she still loves to watch the red carpet content, and reiterated that even though she did it for 20 years, there was never a dull moment.
Giuliana Rancic’s New Projects
But, with that being said, she is still extremely excited that she has moved on to HSN and even just launched a new home line called G by Giuliana Home.
However, just because she’s changed to a different network and is working towards selling her new products, that doesn’t mean that her interview skills have been forgotten.
Of course she worked as an interviewer for decades, so that kind of thing just doesn’t go away now that she has a new job.
Instead, she’s taking her skills and applying them in a new way. “Even when I’m on set and I’m talking about the products and the line, if the host brings up something about her life, forget it. I’ll ask a million follow up questions,” she said.
She added that she just couldn’t help herself, since she has always been, and always will be intrigued by other people and what they have to say. She explained that her interest in people has been there ever since she moved to the United States from Italy as a young girl.
Why Giuliana Stopped Covering Red Carpets
So, when she finally moved, she learned so much about Hollywood and couldn’t get enough of it. Later in life, she then made the decision to move to LA and began pursuing her dream career of hosting, which we all know now that she was extremely successful at.
But despite reaching her dreams, she said that it got to a point where she just wanted to become a fan of the content again, rather than be the one to create it.
And while she said that it was great that she had the opportunity to interview so many incredible celebrities, she wished that she could take a step back.
She longed for the moment where she could actually watch the red carpet interviews like how she used to back in the day, just enjoying it while in her pajamas and taking it all in.
On top of that, working these red carpets took a lot of the glamor away from it, since she just saw it as a job that needed to be done first and foremost.
And it was definitely a difficult job, she said “You’ve got a million things to juggle, and people in your ear talking, people speaking to you on the platform, it’s like, it’s a lot.”
Giuliana’s Work at HSN Is a Little More Relaxed
For all of those reasons, that’s why she decided to finally switch up her career and do something that she felt like was a little more relaxed, which she said HSN definitely was.
On top of that, being a part of HSN also allows her to be more creative, since she designs roughly 15 collections a year for a fashion line that she has with the network.
These days, she said that being a part of HSN and designing things for them doesn’t feel like work anymore, she says that now it’s more like her hobby.
It also allows her to spend more time with her family and she even teamed up with her mother to launch a food and beverage line with HSN just last year.
Now with all of this time on her hands, she’s just been taking in as much as she can with her husband and their son, and she couldn’t be happier with her decision to change networks.
Missy and Jase Robertson from Duck Dynasty are feeling extremely grateful after a Category 3 tornado damaged their property in Tennessee and almost killed their son.
Missy posted several pictures on Instagram showing the damage that the tornado left behind. The series of photos showed buildings with roof damage and several trees flattened. A few trees had even fallen onto some of the buildings.
The buildings weren’t the only things under threat from the tornado, either. Missy said that her middle son, Cole, was on his way home when the tornado hit. He had pulled into the driveway just seconds before the damage really started.
Missy Robertson Said Her Son Cole Got Caught In the Tornado
The rest of the family was taking cover in a shelter in their garage, but by the time Cole got home, there wasn’t enough time to make it inside. Cole got out of his truck and was immediately pushed to the ground by the sheer force of the wind.
Around him, the trees were starting to be pulled up by their roots and flattened on the ground. Luckily, he managed to get inside the nearby home instead of the garage and took cover in the bathtub.
Missy said that Cole had made the right choice because, by the time he arrived, the trees were already blocking the way to the garage. If he had chosen to go to the garage and shelter, he would have found himself blocked in by all the downed trees and at the mercy of the tornado.
Thankfully, despite being subjected to the strong winds and debris flying around, Cole wasn’t harmed. Missy found out later that her husband, Jase, had actually been praying for his family just as the tornado had passed over their farm.
Jase Wasn’t Home in Tennessee at the Time
Jase wasn’t in Tennessee at the time and was instead in Louisiana, praying over dinner. He also prayed for the safety of his family, unknowing that they were experiencing a Category 3 tornado at the time. Missy gave credit to Jase and God for protecting Cole and minimizing the damage as much as possible.
In her post, she asked for prayers for all those families who have been impacted by the tornado. According to WSMV, a local news station, one person died due to the strong winds.
Cheryl Lovett was taking shelter in her home when the tornado lifted it up off its foundation and sent it flying to a nearby wooded area, where she was found. Several other people were pulled from debris and wooded areas following the tornado.
Search and Rescue Teams Looked for Survivors
Search and rescue teams have been looking through the area to find more survivors, even using search dogs to help them. Along with one death, officials have reported that at least five other people were injured, with one in serious condition.
As for Missy and Jase, she said that the damage done to the property was extensive. After the tornado passed, the family was able to survey the damage and found that several buildings had been damaged by trees.
While they’ve started cleaning up the area, the project was likely going to take a very long time.
She was just grateful that her son made it out okay.
