According to the New York Post, Kyle’s family members confirmed on April 15 that she’d passed away one week earlier, at just 36 years old.
Needless to say, Kyle’s followers were shocked, especially since the official cause of her passing is still unknown.
Many people have been discussing the tragic news online in an attempt to figure out what could have led to Kyle’s mysterious demise.
Apparently, several of the theories going around about her suspicious passing have one aspect in common, and it’s extremely bizarre.
How JLo Could Be at Fault TikTok star’s, Kyle Marisa Roth, Death
Believe it or not, a lot of the theories have suggested that JLo could be at fault and should even be held responsible for causing Kyle’s life to end.
It turns out that Kyle’s entire world was completely turned upside down by JLo less than a month before she sadly passed away.
In the past, Kyle had shared videos that exposed JLo as the subject of whatever blind item she was discussing, but that wasn’t surprising.
After all, her main source of income was creating content on TikTok, which is why she had countless videos about many other celebrities on her account.
But even though Kyle’s content couldn’t have done any real damage to JLo’s fame or finances, she still retaliated in a seriously major way.
Just two weeks before Kyle’s family went public with the news of her passing, Kyle revealed exactly what JLo had done and its life-changing impact.
According to a March 31 article published by Forbes, many TikTok creators had criticized JLo for coming across as fake and self-absorbed in her new documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told.
Kyle Marisa Roth’s TikTok Account Was Permanently Banned
When JLo discovered that people were calling her out on the platform, she had her legal team file copyright strikes against many of their accounts.
One of the creators affected was Kyle, who told the magazine that she received copyright strikes on every video she had posted that featured clips of JLo’s documentary.
Unfortunately, that resulted in Kyle’s entire TikTok account being permanently banned.
To make matters worse, Kyle explained that she didn’t have the chance to save any of her videos.
Without any warning, all of the content that she had uploaded to her account over the last four years was completely gone.
Kyle Marisa Roth Said “JLo’s Narcissism Single-handedly Crushed” Her Business and Earnings
But as devastating as that was for Kyle, the effect it had on her was so much worse.
Kyle revealed that she had created a new account, but it wasn’t monetized like her old one, and she had “lost hundreds of thousands of followers” as well.
She claimed that “JLo’s narcissism single-handedly crushed” her business and earnings, which had taken a severe hit.
Kyle said that just in the last part of March, when she lost her account, JLo’s actions had cost her “more than four figures of income.”
Kyle Marisa Roth’s Cancer Battle
She also mentioned that the sudden, massive decrease in her earnings had already impacted “her ability to access necessary medical care.”
That was obviously really concerning, especially because of her intense medical history.
According to Peoplemagazine, Kyle had been pretty vocal on social media about her battle with cancer.
In February, Kyle posted on X about being a colon cancer survivor, and she even detailed the many different surgeries she had undergone in the past.
So when she claimed that she could no longer afford ‘necessary medical care,’ many people suspected she may have needed more treatments or procedures that were related to her colon cancer.
If that’s the case, JLo’s complaints had resulted in Kyle unexpectedly losing her income, which she needed in order to stay healthy.
That’s why a lot of people have speculated that JLo caused Kyle to get very sick, potentially due to her cancer returning and going untreated, which led to her tragic passing.
But there’s another theory that places the blame on JLo, and it’s absolutely insane.
Kyle was clearly struggling financially without her monetized TikTok account.
Kyle Marisa Roth’s Desperate Plea for Help
On March 25, she posted a video on her new account, and she revealed that she desperately needed all of her followers’ help.
She added that the situation was an emergency, and she was obviously panicking.
Kyle claimed that she needed a monetized account in order to pay her rent, which was due in about a week.
She also explained the steps that her followers could take to file a report with TikTok in an attempt to reverse the ban on her old account and hopefully have it restored.
But sadly, that didn’t work, and Kyle ended up passing away only two weeks later.
Did Kyle Marisa Roth End Her Own Life?
Some people have speculated that the money trouble from having her original account banned was causing her too much stress, which could have led to her possibly ending her own life.
She claimed that her mental health hadn’t been that low in over 10 years, and she’d been fighting her own intrusive thoughts every day.
Just one month later, JLo became upset that people were criticizing her character and decided to file copyright strikes against anyone who had used any clips from her documentary.
So, on top of the mental health challenges that Kyle had already been dealing with, she was suddenly completely overwhelmed by so much more.
Because JLo caused Kyle to lose her account, she was facing serious money problems and a dangerous lack of healthcare.
Not only that, but because she was struggling to come up with the funds to pay her rent, she was most likely also worried about potential homelessness.
But aside from the possible hopelessness that she felt, there’s another reason why some people have theorized that Kyle might have ended her own life.
Kyle Marisa Roth’s Mother Wrote ‘Be Kind to One Another Please’
It turns out that her family members made very cryptic remarks when they broke the tragic news of her passing.
Kyle’s sister, Lindsay Roth, posted on Instagram about Kyle’s passing, and she wrote that her whole family was still trying to process their sudden loss.
But that must have been even more difficult than anyone could have expected, because of how mysterious the circumstances were.
Lindsay explained that it had been about a week since Kyle had passed away, but they still didn’t know what exactly had happened.
But that same day, Kyle’s mom, Jacquie Cohen Roth, spoke out about the family’s tragedy, and what she revealed was honestly bizarre.
Jacquie posted on her LinkedIn account to let her followers know about the heartbreaking loss of her daughter.
She claimed that nothing made any sense at the moment, but hopefully soon, the family would understand more about what had caused Kyle’s passing.
However, the last sentence of Jacquie’s message was strangely puzzling.
She ended her post by writing: “Be kind to one another please.”
Some people speculated that she had chosen to make such a specific and emotionally charged request for an unbelievable reason.
If Kyle actually had ended her life because of the fallout from JLo’s ridiculous power move, it’s possible that her family suspected that was the cause of her passing.
If that’s truly what happened, that could explain why Jacquie reminded people to treat each other well.
Kyle Marisa Roth’s Celebration of Life Services
According to theNew York Post, Kyle’s sister recently revealed that her family is preparing their celebration of life for Kyle.
Apparently, the event will be filmed and publicly shared online.
However, the official cause of Kyle’s passing still isn’t known.
It’s obviously impossible for Kyle’s followers to know exactly what caused her to unexpectedly pass away.
But many people believe that because of the events leading up to her untimely demise, JLo should be held responsible.
However, until the official cause of Kyle’s passing is confirmed, there isn’t really much evidence that would directly place the blame on JLo.
But even then, it would probably be pretty difficult to prove that she played such a major role in Kyle passing away that she should legally be held accountable.
Despite those potential challenges, many people seem convinced that JLo did cause Kyle to either pass away from sickness, or from ending her own life.
A lot of social media users have even been commenting on JLo’s public platforms and accusing her of being responsible for Kyle’s passing.
But now that we’ve gotten into the theories that suggest that JLo is to blame for Kyle’s life suddenly coming to an end, I want to know what your thoughts are.
What do you think about JLo having Kyle’s monetized account permanently banned?
What are your thoughts on the speculations that claim that JLo caused Kyle to pass away?
Many shocking things have happened to Gypsy Rose Blanchard since her early release from prison for her role in ending her mother’s life.
Sources allege that Gypsy Rose is focused on changing herself inside and out and making her own life decisions. Shockingly, TMZ reported on April 30th that Gypsy Rose is “officially” back with her “ex-fiance.”
Gypsy Rose Caught ‘Locking Lips’ With Ken Urker
According to TMZ, Gypsy Rose was “locking lips” with Ken Urker, and they included a pretty telling photo in the article that sure looks like Gypsy Rose with a guy who is not her soon-to-be ex-husband, Ryan Anderson.
TMZ bragged that they got “the first look!” They referred to Gypsy Rose as “GRB,” and they wrote that she and Ken “showed off major PDA” last weekend during the New Orleans Jazz Festival.
TMZ also teased “new shots” and a video of Gypsy Rose and Ken taken at the Jazz Fest, insinuating that the footage was more explosive than the “first photos showing them cuddled up.”
In the video obtained by TMZ, Gypsy Rose and Ken are “swaying” along to the jazz music on stage. The photo shows “the lovebirds locking lips for a big smooch.”
Gypsy Rose told TMZ that she’d reconnected with Ken earlier in April. She claimed, “We realized that our love for each other is simply undeniable.” She also revealed that she feels life is “too short” not to follow her heart and “take a chance” with him.
Gypsy Rose and Ryan are going through a bad breakup, so it’s no wonder she might be worried about taking a chance with the guy she fell in love with before Ryan.
But she claimed to TMZ that she’s got a better “history” with Ken. She describes it as “the perfect foundation for a new beginning,” and Gypsy Rose says they’re “together and in a wonderful place.”
It’s not all wonderful, though, and Gypsy Rose seems to understand that. She revealed to TMZ that she and Ken “know” the road ahead is going to be “long,” but they are “excited for the future.”
Gypsy Rose “Lost Out” on Thousands of Dollars
On April 26th, TMZ exclusively reported that Gypsy Rose “lost out” on thousands of dollars, and allegedly, that money is currently sitting in Ryan’s PayPal account.
According to TMZ, “sources with direct knowledge” told them that Gypsy Rose earned the money through the “creator fund” on her TikTok page.
Before shockingly deleting her TikTok account, Gypsy Rose had over nine million followers. She needed a PayPal account to go on TikTok as a creator, and because Gypsy Rose didn’t have one, she used Ryan’s PayPal account instead.
TMZ alleged that Gypsy Rose deleted her social media accounts because it was “too stressful,” and her parole officer told her it would be a good idea to go offline.
But TMZ said that Gypsy Rose “hopped back on the platform this week,” and shockingly, she found out that the money she’d earned was still sitting in Ryan’s PayPal.
Allegedly, Ryan “hasn’t said a word” about the money sitting in his PayPal account, and according to TMZ, Gypsy Rose hasn’t asked Ryan for the money back. Instead, she’s “consulting with her divorce lawyer” on possible ways to retrieve her money.
Why Gypsy Rose Filed for Divorce From Ryan Anderson
TMZ described the “blow-up fights” that led to Gypsy Rose filing for divorce from Ryan earlier this month. The nitty-gritty of their arguments included Gypsy Rose spending too much time with her family and Ryan “loading up the fridge” with too many leftovers.
Besides getting engaged to Gypsy Rose at different times, Ken and Ryan share another thing in common. TMZ reported that they both met her in the same way, through the “prison pen pal program.”
Ken and Gypsy Rose connected first, and in April 2019, they got engaged. As TMZ wrote, “they eventually called off the engagement,” and then Gypsy Rose began writing to her “new pen pal,” Ryan.
Gypsy Rose married Ryan while she was still in prison. She had talked to media outlets about having a “real wedding” following her early prison release, but TMZ confirmed that Gypsy Rose separated from Ryan “only a few short months” after she got out of jail.
Ken allegedly reached out to Gypsy Rose after the news of her marriage breakup went public. TMZ described the “handful of adventures” that she and Ken have been experiencing lately, including “hitting a tattoo parlor” and “the dollar store.” According to TMZ, Gypsy Rose and Ken look “real cozy” together. Hopefully, the chance they’re taking works out for the best!
Liz Johnston did an amazing job of keeping her pregnancy a secret from her family, but viewers are starting to discover signs that she was pregnant throughout the latest 7 Little Johnstons episodes.
While she was pregnant, Liz managed to keep it from her parents up until a month before she gave birth to her child via C-Section.
Now that fans of the show are watching the episodes leading up to the birth, they’ve been picking out key clues that she was pregnant while the show was filming.
One Reddit thread brought fans together to go over the clues they spotted.
The first big clue the fans said tipped them off was the fact that Liz was wearing sweatshirts.
While a sweatshirt doesn’t automatically mean someone is pregnant, it’s a little bit odd to be wearing one in Georgia during the summer.
Georgia summers can be extremely hot and humid.
No one typically wears a sweatshirt by choice if they’re going to be outside at all.
Liz was seen in several episodes wearing a sweatshirt while outside and inside despite it clearly being hot out.
Others said it was obvious that Liz had gained weight.
In particular, her face seemed a bit bigger, which can sometimes suggest that the person is pregnant.
Gaining weight is a natural part of pregnancy since the baby is growing, and the mother needs to eat enough food to sustain both bodies.
While Liz has always been slightly bigger than her siblings, viewers were automatically able to see that she had gained far more than usual.
They connected the dots from there and suggested she was wearing sweatshirts to hide the baby bump.
This theory was easy to explain away, however, since Liz sometimes wore sweatshirts in the past, even while in a sauna.
Some fans believe that Liz wears sweatshirts to hide her weight.
Fans started to look for other clues that suggested that Liz might be pregnant.
Did Liz Johnston’s Sister, Anna, Know About Her Pregnancy?
Someone recalled an episode when Liz’s sister, Anna, got them both coffee.
During the scene, Anna got a large cup of coffee for herself and a small one for Liz.
She’s about to explain why she got Liz a small coffee, but Liz quickly looks at her to warn her off.
They moved the conversation on quickly from there.
Fans have pointed out this scene and suggested that Liz was pregnant during it because mothers aren’t supposed to have a lot of caffeine.
The fact that Liz also seemed to warn Anna from explaining why she had a small coffee also suggested that she was keeping the information of her pregnancy from her parents.

After devastating twisters tore through Nebraska this weekend, country singer Zach Bryan stopped to lend a helping hand. People magazine reported that Zach and his whole band were present for a clean-up operation in the Elkhorn neighborhood of Omaha. The 28-year-old star was reportedly in town for a series of shows but felt obliged to help the community recover from the brutal storm.
The tornados ravaged areas in Nebraska but also in Oklahoma, Iowa, and Kansas. He explained what happened in a post on his Instagram account on Saturday.
Zach wrote that he had lived in Omaha, where he was due to perform, through “some pretty formidable years of my life. He went on to offer “some honest prayers and hopes to the communities affected by the tornadoes that tore through them.”
Zach wrote that he and his band were “standing with” the communities. He shared that he was “so sorry to anyone that is having to deal with picking up the pieces of their homes and their lives.”
A local resident called Kristi Andersen shared a picture of Zach assisting her son with an air conditioner. Along with the touching photo, she wrote, “I was a fan before but now even more so. What a great human!”
Kristi went on to gush about “how cool” it was that the country star would just “show up and start working.” According to her post, Zach arrived on the scene with no fanfare and got straight to work helping locals get their town upright again.
His selfless actions left Kristi as well as many others inspired. She finished her post by writing, “As the mother of two teenagers, that’s the kind of celebrity I want my kids to follow.”
Zach Wanted His Band to Do All They Could to Help
Her 17-year-old son Gavin was alongside his teammates from Elkhorn South High’s football team. Gavin later shared his experience with the Omaha World-Herald.
He revealed that Zach and his people told them that they “didn’t want any pictures or anything” to show off about his good deeds. Instead, they said they were “just there to help,” which the teenager described as “awesome to see.”
After the chaos brought about by the twisters, the people of Elkhound needed all the help they could get. The tornado that hit the neighborhood was rated as EF-3, meaning it was believed to have had a speed of around 160 miles per hour.
Tornadoes of similar intensity hit Marietta and Sulphur in Oklahoma. Reports have claimed that at least 5 people have tragically lost their lives as a result of the twisters. The level of damage to property has also been heartbreaking to see.
Zach, meanwhile, is slated to return to performing tonight and tomorrow at the CHI Health Center in Omaha. As he wrote in his post, before the shows, Zach and his band wanted to “do all we can to help.”
Jenelle Evans is raising some eyebrows from her fans with her decision to homeschool her children. According to her Instagram story, she pulled her children, Kaiser and Ensley, out of school to teach them at home. Her decision doesn’t include Jace, who is 14 years old.
Jenelle shares Kaiser with her ex-husband, Nathan Griffith. Ensley is shared with her estranged husband, David Eason.
Jenelle’s family has raised a few eyebrows before, but her most recent decision to homeschool her children has received backlash. Part of the reason is the method she’s using to teach her children.
In the Instagram story, Jenelle explained that she’d be teaching her kids by taking them to educational facilities in the area. She said that she had taken them to the aquarium the previous day. According to her, the children learned a lot during the visit.
Besides her announcement, the Instagram story also showed a day of homeschooling for her children. Jenelle took Kaiser and Ensley to a local Children’s Museum. The video showed several clips of her children interacting and playing with different exhibits.
One exhibit was about dental hygiene. The kids were able to act out what a typical dentist visit is like. There was also information about dental X-rays and dental health.
Museums Are Not a Replacement For School
They discovered an exhibit about yoga where they copied the instructor’s movements. As with most Children’s Museums, the exhibits introduced certain concepts for children to learn about more in-depth later.
The problem Jenelle’s fans had with her decision to homeschool her children is that it seems as though she just plans on taking them to museums. While museums can provide information about local, regional, and worldwide history, as well as introduce scientific concepts, they’re not schools. Unless she’s testing them and asking questions to ensure they’re retaining the information that the museum is offering, all the children are really doing is just playing.
One viewer even asked Jenelle if she was qualified to homeschool her children. The quality of a child’s education tends to fall upon the teacher and facility in charge of education.
If Jenelle doesn’t have any experience in teaching, she may find it difficult trying to teach her children to grasp concepts. Jenelle answered the viewer’s question, however, by showing off her graduation photos from attending medical assisting college back in 2015.
All the same, just because she has a degree doesn’t mean she’s qualified to teach her kids. Some viewers are upset that she’s chosen to pull her kids out of school because of her lack of qualifications.
Now, some fans might be wondering why the former Teen Mom 2 star chose to homeschool her kids in the first place. Jenelle said it was because she found out the school they were in was not safe.
Jenelle’s Children Have Been in a Stressful Environment
She didn’t go into detail about why this particular school is unsafe compared to others. However, it seems it’s the driving force behind the decision.
Janelle said that she wanted to keep her kids at home, so she could keep an eye on them and keep them safe. She also said that life had been very stressful for them lately, so she thought having them at home would be good for them.
Some of the stress that she might be referring to is her separation from her husband, David. Despite being together for six years, the couple decided to part ways.
However, the legal system in North Carolina has made it difficult for them to divorce. Janelle explained that in the state of North Carolina if you want to get divorced, you have to legally separate and live in two separate addresses for over a year.
The problem they had was that neither she nor David wanted to move out. So, she did some research and found out she could do something called separation by bed and board. No doubt with the intention of getting divorced in the air, that might leave the home feeling a little stressed.
Some fans might also remember that Child Protective Services were also investigating her and David after her son, Jace, ran away from home. Jace claimed that David had assaulted him.
According to US Weekly, those charges were eventually dropped, and Child Protective Services dismissed the case. David denied the accusation. Whatever might be happening in Jenelle’s home, not everyone is happy that her two youngest children will be removed from their friends at school.

Common dumped Tiffany Haddish before he started dating Jennifer Hudson. Now, Tiffany is speaking out about Common’s “dating patterns,” and her opinion on his love life is pretty shocking.
According to The Source, Tiffany calls her ex-boyfriend’s dating patterns “distinct,” and she’s opening up about their relationship three years after what the outlet called a “public split.”
The Source made these claims based on Tiffany’s exclusive interview with People.com on April 28th.
Tiffany Haddish Said It Was ‘Two Years of Him Chasing Me Down’
People wrote that Tiffany’s involvement with Common was her “last known relationship,” and according to the outlet, Common “pursued her for some time” before they went public with their romance several years ago.
Tiffany refers to Common as the “only celebrity” she’s ever “entangled with,” and she alleges that it was “two years of him chasing me down” before she claims she finally gave in and said, “Okay, let’s do something.”
Tiffany even gave a timeline in the interview, saying she and Common started dating at the “top of 2020, but we met at the beginning of 2018, 2017.”
The April 28th People interview also mentioned something Common said about Tiffany when they interviewed him in July 2021.
Common Told Tiffany: ‘I Think This Relationship Has Run Its Course’
At that time, Common claimed that he needed to “enjoy life.” He said he was “experiencing that” and was “grateful for that” in his relationship with Tiffany.
Shockingly, Tiffany is now alleging that her relationship with Common wasn’t quite as enjoyable as he made it out to be.
She told People she and Common “quietly” went their separate ways in August 2021. But according to Tiffany, their split was not “mutual.”
Later on in 2021, Tiffany did an interview with The Washington Post, and People mentioned Tiffany’s quote to the Post that her breakup with Common “was more him saying, ‘I think this relationship has run its course.’”
She also told People that she’s been contemplating Common’s “dating history,” and Tiffany alleges that Common follows a dating “cycle,” whether or not he’s aware that this pattern exists.
Tiffany claims Common’s pattern seems to run “every two years.” She said he stays single for “six to nine months” and then gets into a new relationship that lasts “two years.” Tiffany claims that’s his “schedule,” and in her opinion, Common has continually followed this pattern throughout his romantic life.
If Tiffany still sounds angry or hurt about her breakup with Common, she claims she “ain’t mad” at her ex or his love life.
She told People that she believes there’s a “gang” of old men in the world who aren’t “famous” but are “doing the same thing” as Common.
Tiffany also spoke out about allegations made against her. She said that “everybody” thought she “wanted to marry [Common] so bad,” but Tiffany told People that wasn’t the real truth.
She referred to another People.com article published when she was still dating Common. In that report, Tiffany claimed she would prefer it if Common bought her an “apartment” instead of an engagement ring.
Tiffany explained in her recent People interview that the “deed” to an apartment “is more powerful than a marriage license,” and she also thinks it’s “easier to get out of.” Tiffany even said, “There’s some return on that investment” with real estate instead of a piece of jewelry.
Tiffany’s Multiple Dating Partners
People reported that Tiffany “has a new lease on love these days” at the age of 44. She said she’s “dating multiple guys” and claimed they “all know about each other.”
But Tiffany also dropped a bombshell that sounds crazy, considering her dating life seems pretty active. She told People that she hasn’t gotten intimate with anyone “since October,” and Tiffany claims that a celibate lifestyle is really working out for her!
She thinks that being celibate makes “men love you even more.” She added that the guys she’s seeing “work even harder,” and they’ve taken her on trips to prove their affection.
Tiffany claims that the guys are “in love” with her, and allegedly, they’ve told her, “I’ve never been in a relationship like this. It’s amazing!” She also joked that she tells them, “[We’re] in a relationship? I thought you were just taking me to eat.”
After her shocking split with Common, Tiffany claims she knows what she wants. She was also married once before, and while Tiffany knows she wants a “partner,” she doesn’t think she wants another “marriage contract.”
In Touch reported on April 29th that Justin Bieber recently posted selfies to his fans and followers on social media—but is Justin sending out a cry for help?
Two of his selfies showed Justin crying, and shockingly, his wife, Hailey, responded by commenting that Justin was “a pretty crier.” Is that really what Justin needs to hear right now? Is he doing okay? Should we be concerned?
Why Justin Bieber Was Crying in Social Media Images
According to In Touch, Justin wanted to give people “a look inside the highs and lows of his life” with the “new series of photos” he posted to his Instagram on April 28th.
Justin shared a “carousel of images” that included him on stage and “vulnerable photos of him crying.” Justin is now 30 years old, and In Touch claimed that he was letting “the photos do the talking” without adding captions for “extra context” about what he meant or how he was really feeling inside.
While Justin didn’t explain the meaning behind his crying selfie, that didn’t stop Hailey from adding her opinion. She commented that her husband is a “pretty crier,” along with a crying emoji.
Fans responded to the crying selfie by filling Justin’s Instagram with “concerned messages.” In Touch reported that many commenters wanted to know why Justin was crying, and others wanted to let Justin know that “they hoped he was OK.”
Some people shared their prayers for Justin, while one person hinted that maybe we didn’t need to be too worried. This user pointed out that his own wife, Hailey, didn’t seem too stressed by writing, “Everybody worries because he is crying and his girl commented, ‘a pretty crier.’”
Justin Appears on Hailey’s Instagram
After the crying selfies Justin posted raised a lot of concern online, Hailey took it one step further to reassure fans that her husband was doing okay. A couple of days later, she took to her Instagram Stories and posted a picture of Justin.
The Instagram Story was screenshotted and shared by The Hindustan Times. In the photo, it looked like Justin and Hailey went out swimming. Justin didn’t seem to be crying or in a bad mood, which eased some people’s worries about his mental health. But what about his physical health?
Justin’s Coachella Appearance
Despite Hailey’s social media reassurance, not everyone was convinced that Justin was completely fine. Reportedly, he has been experiencing health problems lately, and fans were both surprised and concerned when he suddenly appeared at Coachella on April 14th.
Justin did an unscheduled performance with Tems, and he thrilled the audience. However, an inside source set the record straight with In Touch, and the outlet claimed that it “sparked fears” about Justin’s continued health and well-being.
The source claimed that Justin still looked “fragile,” and shockingly, they alleged that he seemed to be “checked out all weekend.” The source added that Justin “finally got his health back,” but allegedly, inside sources close to Justin are now “worried” that he may be “spiraling again.”
Another In Touch report published on April 24th claimed that Justin acted strangely at Coachella. He appeared to be concealing his “thin frame” in “oversized cargo pants” and a “baseball cap pulled down low.”
A witness told In Touch that Justin “looked like he just stepped out of the audience,” but they thought it was a “good sign” that Justin “felt comfortable enough to get on stage.” Justin had to cancel his Justice tour in June 2022 after he was diagnosed with a viral infection that caused “partial face paralysis.”
Justin Bieber’s Health Problems
The condition Justin was diagnosed with in 2022 was Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS), and it made his right side of the face paralyzed. However, there is more to Justin’s health issues than this.
In January 2020, Justin came out and told everyone that he had Lyme disease. The BBC reported on an Instagram post she shared at the time. In it, Justin said that he’d had “a rough couple [of] years.”
He continued to say that he’d received comments from people saying that he looked like he was on substance. However, this was not the case. Justin informed people that the change in his looks had to do with Lyme disease.
He said that he was also diagnosed with a serious case of chronic mononucleosis, which negatively impacted many different aspects of his life, including his “skin, brain function, energy, and overall health.”
Justin then reassured everyone that he was getting the right treatment. However, despite his best efforts to get healthy, many are still worried about him.
Is Justin Struggling with Addiction?
It isn’t just Justin’s physical health that has fans worried. Due to the crying selfies he recently posted, many have been wondering about the state of his mental health.
Justin has previously been open about many of his struggles, including his battle with addiction. He struggled with substance use, as well as drinking too many adult beverages.
In 2014, Justin even got in trouble with the law because of his addiction problems. CNN Entertainment reported on what happened back then. Justin was arrested by the police in Miami in January of that year. He was accused of driving inebriated, as well as resisting arrest and driving without a valid license.
Justin was only 19 years old at the time. He was later released on a $2,500 bond, according to CNN. But his struggles with substances weren’t over.
On February 3rd, 2020, Justin released a 14-minute video on YouTube titled The Dark Season – Justin Bieber: Seasons. In it, he opened up a little more about his relationship with substances. He explained how at first, he was mostly consuming some lighter stuff, but eventually, he spiraled out of control.
He decided to get sober once he realized that he felt like he was losing his life. Justin said that things got very serious and scary. He said that his security team would have to come into his room at night to check in on him. They needed to make sure that he still had a pulse.
On top of his addiction issues, Justin also struggled with other things, such as being in the limelight, depression, anxiety, and ADHD.
Trouble in Paradise for Justin and Hailey’s Marriage
While some people love Hailey and Justin together, others are not convinced about the strength of their relationship. Their marriage has always been under public scrutiny, and recently, someone close to the couple made it seem like there might be trouble in paradise.
Hailey’s dad, Stephen Baldwin, posted a shocking Instagram Story in February that got everyone wondering if Justin and Hailey’s marriage was going through a rough patch.
While rumors about “troubles” in Justin and Hailey’s marriage have always been on the back burner, Stephen’s message only seems to have made it worse.
He wrote that people who “think of Justin & Hailey” should “take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection, and to draw close to the Lord.” Then Stephen dropped the bombshell that “folks in high visibility positions” often face “special challenges.”
Many people took Stephen’s message to mean that Hailey and Justin were having marital problems. Why else would he want people to pray for the couple?
In Touch also reported that many people on sites like TikTok began throwing shade at Justin and Hailey and posting blind items that they were on the verge of a breakup.
Why Hailey Clapped Back to Online Rumors
27-year-old Hailey was forced to respond to the online rumors, and In Touch wrote that she “clapped back” on March 5th.
Hailey wrote an “FYI” to her fans and followers that the stories and “constant ‘blind items’” she was seeing on TikTok were incorrect “100% of the time.”
Hailey added that the rumors were “made out of thin air” and “come from the land of delusion.” She threw shade back at the haters, saying, “I know it may be fun feeding into these stories,” but she claimed, “they’re always false… sorry to spoil it.”
But shockingly, In Touch alleged that they’d received an “exclusive” from an inside source that Justin and Hailey’s relationship “isn’t in the best place right now.”
Still, the source claimed that the thought of splitting up with Justin isn’t on Hailey’s “radar.” The source added that her marriage is Hailey’s “priority,” and her focus is also on “keeping [Justin] healthy.”
According to the source, Justin’s surprise appearance at Coachella was a “huge accomplishment” in his career after a long time away from touring. The source added that “everyone is rooting for Justin,” but shockingly, they also repeated that he’s still “very fragile.”
Are Hailey and Justin Actually Happy Together?
Another source spoke to People magazine in April of this year. This source seemingly contradicted the information In Touch got from their insider. According to People’s source, Hailey and Justin were very happy together.
The source claimed: “There’s no divorce and no truth to that whatsoever.”
This was more in line with what Hailey had to say about the rumors and blind items claiming that their relationship was in trouble.
Hailey and Justin Are Expecting a Baby
Despite all the rumors, it seems that Justin and Hailey may actually be doing better than ever. On May 9th, 2024, Hailey shared some big news with her Instagram followers. It turns out that she’s pregnant with her and Justin’s first baby.
Hailey chose to share this news through a video from her and Justin’s vow renewal. The two of them renewed their vows recently when they traveled to Hawaii together.
Hailey also posted several photos from the day, in which she showed off her baby bump. In one of the photos, Justin could be seen standing behind Hailey. He was touching her tummy in an affectionate way.
In another photo, Justin and Hailey shared a lovely kiss. There were also two more photos, which showed Justin taking photos of Hailey, who was posing in a white dress and showing off her baby bump yet again.
It seems that Hailey is pretty far along with the pregnancy. Her representative spoke to PEOPLE, and they were able to confirm that she is over six months pregnant at this stage. So, she and Justin will be welcoming their new baby pretty soon.
Justin and Hailey have been married for almost 6 years at this point. They tied the knot in September 2018. For a long time, fans questioned whether or not the couple would have any children together. Now, we finally have the answer. But why did they decide to expand their family now?
It seems that Hailey was finally ready for a pregnancy. In 2020, Justin spoke to Ellen Degeneres on her show, and he admitted that he was ready to start having children. However, the same thing could not be said for Hailey at the time.
Justin claimed that he was ready to expand their family, but Hailey wanted to wait a little longer. She had her own personal goals that she wanted to focus on first. She knew that if she had a baby, she would have to put them first, and it seems like she simply wasn’t ready to give up her freedom four years ago.
She does seem ready now, though. It will be interesting to see how many children she and Justin will have in the end.
Justin told Ellen that this was up to Hailey, too. When asked how many children he wanted, he said: “I am going to have as many as Hailey is wishing to push out.”
Pregnancy Announcement Criticism
After Hailey shared the pregnancy announcement on her Instagram, many in the comments congratulated her and Justin. However, not everyone was so kind. Some people made it known that they still weren’t big fans of the two of them as a couple.
One person wrote: “He just got baby trapped by his stalker rebound.”
But this wasn’t the only kind of criticism the couple faced. Justin shared a similar post on his Instagram, too. His post included even more photos. In one of them, Justin and Hailey could be seen hugging while Justin was cradling Hailey’s head.
The photos were undoubtedly very sweet, but not everyone shared the couple’s excitement. Justin’s comments were flooded with people commenting “#blockout2024.”
This hashtag is a form of online boycott that started due to some celebrities not speaking out about the Israel-Gaza conflict. People in the comments criticized Justin’s silence on the matter and said that they would have to block him.
However, Justin’s post still received many supportive messages, too. One person wrote: “Congratulations and may God continue to bless you both!”
What Kind of Parents Will Justin and Hailey Be
Now that Justin and Hailey are expecting a baby, many are wondering what these two will be like as parents. Naturally, everyone is hoping for the best, but some people are a little skeptical, too.
The couple famously had a messy, tumultuous relationship for quite some time. They were on-again-off-again pretty often until they finally tied the knot in 2018.
However, even after the two of them got married, not everyone was convinced that they were going to last. Many questioned their relationship and if it was really stable enough to survive long-term. After all, Justin was only 24 years old when they got married, while Hailey was just 21.
Despite everyone’s skepticism, the couple have continued to prove us wrong time and time again. They are still together to this day, and they just announced that they are starting a family together.
However, this doesn’t mean that they haven’t faced any problems over the last 6 years. The constant media scrutiny hasn’t been easy on the couple. They have been criticized for many different things over the years, and they’ve even faced rumors of infidelity.
On top of this, they’ve had to deal with things like Hailey’s dad asking people to pray for them. But the couple never let these things get to them too much.
Hailey and Justin have made it clear that they value honest communication. They are willing to work on things and be patient with each other, which is one of the reasons why they’re still going strong.
It’s impossible to say what kind of parents these two will be. However, if they keep up their good communication, patience, and hard work, it’s easy to see how their family could blossom.
Justin’s Difficult Childhood
Another topic that has lately been on everyone’s lips is Justin’s own childhood. As a child star, he didn’t always have the easiest time of things, and this may be one of the reasons why he later struggled so much as a young adult.
In it, she alleged that she’d been a victim of Diddy. She claimed that she suffered SA by him, among other things.
Cassie and Diddy were able to settle the lawsuit in just one day. However, this didn’t put an end to the drama surrounding Diddy. Soon, more people started coming out with their own stories about him. Now, Diddy is facing many serious allegations, including trafficking, SA, grooming, and more.
Things got particularly bad for Diddy when his houses were raided by Homeland Security on March 25, 2024. U.S. officials confirmed that the raids had to do with the trafficking allegations against Diddy. But what does this have to do with Justin?
Diddy and Justin’s Relationship
When Justin was younger, he used to spend a lot of time with Diddy. Scooter Braun and Usher first discovered Justin on YouTube when he was just a young boy. After that, Usher introduced Justin to Diddy, and that’s how the two of them got to know each other.
At the time, Justin was only 15 years old. However, Diddy is much older than him. He was already in his early 40s back then. This has led many people to question the nature of their relationship. Why was Diddy so interested in Justin? Why did he feel it was appropriate to build a friendship with the teenage boy?
Some of the things that happened between Justin and Diddy back then now seem shocking. For example, at one point, the two were supposed to spend 48 hours alone together. Justin was still a minor back then, and many have since wondered why he was allowed to spend time with this adult man without parental supervision.
Justin Attended One of Diddy’s Parties
In 2014, TMZ published a shocking report about one of Diddy’s infamous parties. They said that Justin was actually at this party, which was held in Atlanta. He was only 19 years old at the time.
This piece of news is especially concerning now, as many people have come forward to speak out about all the sinister things that would happen at Diddy’s parties. However, even back in 2014, many were concerned about Justin’s presence at the Atlanta party.
As he was only 19 years old, it seemed inappropriate that he was there. TMZ said that he didn’t actually consume any adult beverages or drink anything he wasn’t allowed to. Reportedly, he only drank water throughout the night.
However, despite these claims, not everyone believed that. 2014 was the same year that Justin got arrested in Miami for driving under the influence. How likely was it that he was able to say no to adult drinks just a couple of months later?
The TMZ report also mentioned that even if Justin wasn’t drinking, that didn’t mean that he was actually sober that night. The article implied that he might’ve tried something else – for example, a certain green substance.
Justin has since admitted to having issues with drinking in the past, as well as using said substance. So, it is entirely possible that something illegal happened that night when Justin was only 19.
Why Justin’s Mom Let Him Be Friends with Diddy
Justin’s mom’s name is Pattie Mallette. She reportedly raised Justin as a single mom. For a long time, the family struggled for money. Pattie mostly worked office jobs, and unfortunately, she didn’t earn a lot that way.
This changed after Justin was discovered on YouTube. Suddenly, Pattie’s son skyrocketed to fame, and with that came a completely new set of challenges.
Lately, some people have questioned Pattie’s decision to let Justin spend time with the likes of Diddy. While, in hindsight, it seems that this may not have been a good idea, it’s possible that at the time, Pattie didn’t know any better.
In any case, it seems that Justin and Hailey don’t have any beef with Pattie as of right now. Just recently, Hailey took to her Instagram Story to say some nice words about Pattie.
PEOPLE Magazine captured the post in which Hailey called Pattie her “beautiful Mama in law.” This was around Pattie’s birthday, and Hailey wanted to celebrate her.
She wrote: “Having another amazing Mom is all anyone could ask for.”
Justin’s Mom Can’t Wait to Be a Grandma
After Justin and Hailey announced their pregnancy to the whole world, Pattie decided to share her own thoughts on the news, too. She took to her Instagram and posted a video of herself talking about her feelings and excitement.
In the caption, Pattie wrote: “BABY BIEBER IS ON THE WAY!! I’m gonna be a GRANDMA!!”
Then, she congratulated her son and his wife. Pattie added that her heart was full and that this was an exciting new adventure.
She ended her caption by writing: “Love you so much!”
In the video, Pattie said that she’d been waiting for this day. She wanted to share her happiness with the world, and now that the news was out, she finally could. She exclaimed, “Oh my goodness!” as she talked about the fact that she was going to be a grandma.
Then, she talked directly to Justin and Hailey. She said that they were going to be the best parents ever and added that she was very excited.
Two days after posting the video, Pattie made another post on her Instagram. This was for Mother’s Day, and it was dedicated to her own mom. Pattie shared 5 different photos of her mom and wrote a lovely caption in which she told her mom that she loved her.
It seems that there is a lot of love in Justin’s family, and it’s clear that everyone is excited about baby Bieber. The baby won’t just have a grandma, though. They will also have a great-grandma who, according to Pattie’s post, is a patient and resilient woman.
What’s Next for Justin and Hailey
If Hailey is six months pregnant, this means that we can expect baby Bieber to arrive sometime in the summer. In just about three months, we could see the first photo of their child. However, there is no guarantee that we will get to see the baby immediately after it’s born.
Justin and Hailey waited six months before they announced the pregnancy. It’s possible that they will want to wait some more after their child is born, too. They seem to value their privacy, so we may have to wait for things like gender and name reveal.
However, both Justin and Hailey do post on their social media fairly often. Justin usually posts on his Instagram at least once a month. Often, he picks a day or two in the month and shares several different posts at the same time.
The last time he did this was on April 28th, which was when he also shared his crying selfies.
Hailey is also active on her Instagram. She seems to post at least once a week. The last post she shared before the pregnancy announcement was a series of photos from the Rhode Skin Headquarters.
Rhode Skin is Hailey’s skincare brand that she developed. In their Instagram bio, it says that they are vegan, cruelty-free, and dermatologist-developed.
In the photos that she shared from Rhode Skin HQ, Hailey could be seen posing with one of her products. She also posted a mirror selfie and a photo from what looked like the elevator.
Right now, Justin and Hailey seem to be thriving. Even though Justin’s crying selfies raised some concern among fans, it seems that the couple are doing well. They’re clearly excited about the new addition to their family.
Only time will tell if the two choose to share more about their life right now. They have never been too shy to speak up and talk about the things that matter to them. Just recently, Hailey shut down the many rumors going around about their marriage falling apart. So, if there are any more important or big developments, they’ll probably let us know sooner or later. For now, all we can do is just wait and see.
Congratulations Justin and Hailey on the pregnancy. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly and the baby is born strong and healthy.
On April 24th, In Touch published an update on Wynonna Judd, claiming she’s in “turmoil.”
If these allegations are the real truth, Wynonna is experiencing a monumental downfall, and it’s all because of personal tragedies and what In Touch calls her “financial woes.”
The In Touch “In Exclusive” claimed that sources close to Wynonna talked to them and nobody else.
Wynonna is ‘On the Brink of Emotional Collapse’
Sources alleged that Wynonna is “on the brink of emotional collapse,” and three different but equally troubling issues are ruining her mental health.
First was the passing of Wynonna’s mom, fellow country superstar Naomi Judd, in 2022. It’s common knowledge that Naomi passed away from a self-inflicted wound, but secretly, Naomi’s loss is still haunting Wynonna.
Wynonna has always had a twisted relationship with her daughter, Grace Pauline Kelley. On April 5th, Grace was arrested in Elmore County, Alabama, and charged with exposing her body to drivers at the intersection of Highway 14 and Interstate 65 in Millbrook.
Then there are what In Touch calls Wynonna’s “money fears.” Shockingly, a source told In Touch that Wynonna has “teetered on the edge of bankruptcy several times.”
The insider also alleged that Wynonna “feels she has to stay on the road doing concerts” because she’s that broke, and that’s the only way she can “keep the wolves from the door.”
It may sound like that insider was throwing shade, but they offered one heartbreaking piece of advice that Wynonna is probably not listening to. The insider claimed that Wynonna “should be taking a step back and sorting out her feelings” for her “mental well-being.”
Wynonna’s Daughter’s, Grace, Crimes
Wynonna wasn’t happily married to Grace’s dad, Arch Kelly, and they divorced decades ago when Grace was still a toddler. Allegedly, Grace and Wynonna have always had a “terrible relationship,” and Grace frequently ran away from home, sometimes escaping to her Aunt Ashley’s house (Ashley Judd is Wynonna’s movie star sister).
Elmore County sheriffs allege that 27-year-old Grace was “flashing drivers on an Alabama highway,” and shockingly, In Touch reported that Grace has “already served five prison stints” for possessing and distributing illegal substances, as well as violating probation.
In Touch reported that Grace is denying “the latest allegations,” and she’s insisting she wasn’t acting “indecently and was merely looking for a ride” when the sheriffs spotted her unclothed on the highway.
Why Wynonna is Preparing ‘To Raise Her Granddaughter Herself’
Although Grace is clearly struggling, Wynonna’s family burden is allegedly even heavier on her because Grace has a two-year-old daughter named Kaliyah Chanel. This little girl is Wynonna’s only grandchild, and sources told In Touch that Wynonna is also “tied up in knots” over what’s happening to Grace because of Kaliyah.
Wynonna is now 60 years old, and the source told In Touch that Wynonna is making preparations “to raise her granddaughter herself” if Grace is sentenced to another lengthy prison term.
This stress is allegedly making everything even worse for Wynonna. The source claimed that raising a toddler at Wynonna’s age is a “very daunting position, and it weighs heavily on her.”
Other sources, like OK Magazine, have reported “family secrets” and scandalous details about Naomi and Wynonna’s twisted relationship. They weren’t just a mother and daughter; they were a superstar duet in country music for decades.
When Naomi took her own life at age 76, it allegedly became clear that her relationship with Wynonna was as fractured as ever. In Touch even claimed that Naomi left a note behind that included a warning.
Naomi Warned People That Wynonna Shouldn’t Attend Her Funeral
Shockingly, Naomi warned people that Wynonna should NOT be allowed to attend her funeral. Naomi also wrote that Wynonna is “mentally ill!”
Many people at the recent CMA Awards observed that Wynonna seemed “on the verge of collapse,” especially during her shaky performance with Jelly Roll at the televised awards ceremony.
Some people might not know that Wynonna “nearly fainted” during a concert in Ohio last year, but another In Touch source claimed to know the real truth. They said, “Despite all the turmoil in Wynonna’s life,” she has to work, and the reason why will shock you.
Wynonna ‘Even Went to Rehab for a Spending Addiction’
This source alleged that Wynonna “earned millions with The Judds and her solo career.” Still, they also claimed that Wynnona had blown through her fortune, and shockingly, Wynonna “even went to rehab for a spending addiction.”
Apparently, Wynonna’s only bright spot is her 11-year marriage to drummer Cactus Moser. But In Touch spoke to another alleged “pal” of Wynonna, who claimed that Wynonna “can lash out” at Cactus “when he’s doing his best” to help her.
This “pal” added, “All you can do is pray for better days” for Wynonna “while fearing the worst.”

WhenDog The Bounty Hunterreached the height of its popularity on reality television, one of the most popular cast members was Dog’s son, Leland Chapman.
But years later, Leland seems to have just disappeared.
Many Dog fans will remember that Leland and his brother, Duane Lee, quit the reality show in 2011.
And it all played out in an episode that aired in March the following year.
Leland’s Wikipedia page states that he’s lived and worked on the Big Island of Hawaii since 2021.
On social media, he also mentions that he’s an entrepreneur.
Leland owned a bail bond company, Kama’aina Bail Bonds.
And he also operated Dog’s old business, Da Kine Bail Bonds, in Oahu, Hawaii.
It appears that Leland and Dog have reconnected professionally and are personally as close as ever.
The U.S. Sun did report that Leland moved to Alabama in 2015, and there’s proof that he did that for love.
Leland married his second wife, Jamie, in 2016, and she’s from Alabama.
He has a daughter named Leiah and two sons named Cobie and Dakota, from previous relationships.
Why Was Leland ‘Rushed to the Hospital’?
When Leland was back to bounty hunting with Dog on and off camera, multiple reports in the U.S. Sun revealed the truth about a serious, life-changing injury that he sustained during a manhunt in Colorado.
The Sun reported that Leland revealed everything in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
He got “rushed to the hospital” after a run-in with a suspect.
Leland suffered a torn knee ligament during the chase, and this serious injury has affected his life and health ever since.
He explained that the bounty hunters had learned the suspect’s whereabouts and quickly drove to the “manhunt location.”
When Leland saw the suspect, he exited the vehicle and tried to “catch him.”
Allegedly, the suspect didn’t stop when Leland called out to him, and Leland said that the suspect “slipped and fell” at one point.
Dog yelled out, “Grab a car,” to keep chasing the suspect, and Leland said, “I jumped in the first vehicle I see.”
Leland claimed that the other bounty hunters were “kinda close” to the suspect, and he figured that he could cut him off with his vehicle so that the suspect wouldn’t escape capture.
Unfortunately, that isn’t how this situation played out.
As Leland drove closer to the suspect, he claimed he made “eye contact” with the man.
Leland said that the guy looked “tired.”
He thought, “I can keep up with him!”
But Leland was already injured at this point.
He told Entertainment Tonight that he jumped out of the car and was “hobbling along,” chasing the suspect when the guy ran through a gate and slammed it shut in Leland’s face.
Leland Said ‘… I Felt Like I Was Walking on Sand’
Operating on instinct, Leland said he tried to “kick” the gate open, but as he explained to ET, the gate “kind of flexed’ when he tried kicking it open, and then it severed off his Achilles tendon.
It sounded like Leland went into shock when he said, “I put my foot down, I kind of felt like it was asleep. I felt like I was walking on sand.”
He didn’t know how badly injured he was, and he figured he could “still catch” the suspect.
He told ET that he “hobbled around” a shed and saw the suspect trying to climb a fence.
Leland said he got “one shot” into the suspect with his taser, and the guy ended up “laying on the ground long enough for everybody to kind of catch up.”
Leland Clapped Back at Online Haters
Many have said that it was a pretty heroic thing for Leland to pull off, but that hasn’t stopped some online trolls from making fun of him for how he looks now after suffering this chronic injury.
The Sun reported that trolls have posted harsh comments about Leland’s “dad bod,” and he has had to “clap back” at the online haters.
Several years ago, when Leland was 43, he explained on social media that he “can’t even walk” and that his injuries had taken a significant toll on his once muscular body.
On one occasion, Leland had to defend himself after posting a shirtless photo with Jamie during a July 4th celebration.
One of his followers joked, “Where’s the six-pack?” while someone else commented, “You’re gaining weight.”
Leland responded that it was “hard to work out when you can’t even walk.”
He added, “I will be better… soon.”
Another sad side to this story is that Leland was hospitalized “just days” after his stepmother Beth lost her life to cancer.
Although the feud between Leland, Duane Lee, and Beth had initially made the brothers quit the reality show, inside sources claimed that Leland and Beth had mended their strained relationship before she passed away.
Leland and Jamie’s Strained Marriage
Inside sources also claimed that Jamie and Leland’s marriage became strained several years ago, and they were allegedly on the verge of divorce.
Fans noticed that Jamie posted messages on social media that hinted that she and Leland weren’t doing great, but if there was any truth to the rumors, they seemed to have made it through the rough patch.
The U.S. Sun reported that Jamie has worked as a 911 operator in emergency services.
Although Jamie was secretive about her job when she and Leland lived on the mainland, her social media posts claimed her work involved meeting with county jail representatives and captains.
Leland and Jamie also love their tattoos, and the Sun reported that Jamie is a former “tattoo model.”
Jamie’s Weight Loss Journey
Jamie has shared her weight loss journey on social media, and she was pretty honest with her followers when she revealed that “going to the gym after work feels like another meeting scheduled.”
Still, Jamie kept on and refused to “cancel” her fitness goals, and she was happy to report to her fans and followers that she was seeing a “huge change” in how she looked and felt.
Jamie wrote, “I have hustled to get here, and it feels good! Can’t wait to see what the results are for next month!”
With Leland and Jamie living back in Hawaii and running two bail bond operations in the state, Leland seems to have come a long way since his troubled childhood in Texas.
Why Leland’s Mom Surrendered Him to Foster Care
When Leland was an infant, Dog was arrested and sent to prison.
After Dog’s conviction, Leland’s mom, La Fonda Sue Darnall, divorced Dog and married another guy.
Leland grew up thinking his stepfather was his actual dad, and he misbehaved so much at home that his mom ended up surrendering him to foster care.
Leland started on a better path when he was 17 years old.
Doctors Told Leland He Would ‘Lose His Leg Completely’
He began training in Mixed Martial Arts and boxing.
Inside sources claim that Leland could have made the pros as an MMA fighter or boxer, but then he suffered a knee injury in the ring, and a sports doctor told Leland that he would “lose his leg completely” if he didn’t give up his favorite sports.
These days, inside sources claim that Leland is worth at least two million dollars.
He seems to be in a happy marriage with Jamie, and he’s re-established a great personal and working relationship with his dad, Dog the Bounty Hunter.
Kris Kristofferson is a legend in music and movies—he wrote Me and Bobby McGee, among other unforgettable hits—so it’s insane to find out that his family once disowned him for the life he chose. A recent report in Whiskey Riff claims that Kris’s family told him, “You’re a disgrace to us,” because Kris decided to pursue a country music career.
The real truth is that Kris has accomplished a lot in his life. Before he hit it big in Nashville and Hollywood, Kris was a “Rhodes Scholar, three-sport letterman in college, Golden Gloves boxer, award-winning essayist, forest fighter, Army Ranger,” and a “helicopter pilot” in the U.S. military.
According to Kris, his parents disowned him when he walked away from a military career. Kris’s father, Lars Henry Kristofferson, had a distinguished military career as an Air Force pilot. By the time he retired, Lars was a major general after serving in both World War II and the Korean conflict.
Allegedly, Kris only entered the military after his impressive high school and college years because his dad told him to. His parents were furious when Kris decided to make a drastic life change.
Kris Excelled at Everything He Did
Kris was born in Brownsville, Texas, in 1936. His teenage life was exciting because his family moved to California. There, young Kris began writing articles and stories that received acclaim and publication.
After high school, Kris enrolled in Pomona College. He was a star athlete in football, track, and rugby. Kris graduated from Pomona with a summa cum laude.
Then, Kris reached higher and tried for a Rhodes Scholarship. He achieved that goal and attended the prestigious University of Oxford. While he was in England, Kris started playing rugby again and became a star in the boxing ring.
Kris graduated from Oxford in 1960 with a Philosophy of English Literature degree. His parents had to have been happy with that, but Lars still wanted Kris to enter the military. His parents also didn’t know that Kris had begun to write songs in his spare time.
The Army wasn’t Kris’s true passion, but as Whiskey Riff wrote, “Kris crushed in the service.” He climbed to the rank of Captain and was a Ranger and a daring helicopter pilot.
Shockingly, Kris even got the opportunity to begin teaching at the iconic West Point School for military officers. His parents thought they knew what Kris should be doing, but fate had other plans for him.
Before returning to the States and teaching at West Point, Kris had to finish a military stint in West Germany. While in Europe, he started a band and played original songs he’d written. When Kris returned to America, he made a crazy decision.
Not only did Kris decline the teaching job at West Point, he ended his military career forever. Kris moved to Nashville to pursue country music, and his parents’ reaction was noteworthy for all the wrong reasons.
Kris Eventually Reconciled with His Mother
Whiskey Riff reported that Kris’s mom and dad would not speak to him “for decades.” If you think that Lars was the hardest one on him, you’ll be shocked to hear this.
According to Kris’s interview with Rolling Stone, his mom, Mary Ann, told him that he was “an embarrassment to the family.” This sounds crazy now, but Mary Ann allegedly told Kris that there were only “moments of pride” for her and Lars, like when Kris earned his Rhodes scholarship.
Even more heartless, Kris alleged that his mom told him his best accomplishments would “never measure up to the tremendous disappointment you’ve always been.” Unbelievable, right?
Kris eventually became a huge star in music and film, but he had lean years in Nashville, just like any country music superstar, including Garth Brooks in the 1980s. In 1999, Kris was interviewed by Salon, and he gave more shocking details about being “disowned” by his parents. Mary Ann even advised Kris not to “visit any of our relatives.” That’s when she dropped the bombshell that he was “a disgrace” to her and Lars.
Whiskey Riff confirmed that Kris’ mom didn’t speak to him “for over 20 years.” According to his Wikipedia page, sources were “unclear” if Kris ever reconciled with his dad before Lars passed away.
However, Mary Ann eventually came around. Kris told Salon, “Before she died, she was coming backstage and hugging Johnny Cash and things like that.” Kris seemed to have made peace with his mother’s heartlessness when he admitted, “She definitely got used to the fact that I was who I was.”
