Gypsy Rose Gets Matching Tattoo with Ex-Fiance

Gypsy Rose Blanchard recently split from her husband, Ryan Anderson, but that hasn’t stopped her from getting a matching tattoo with another man – her ex-fiance, Ken Urker. According to TMZ, Gypsy was seen in a tattoo shop called Sailor Bob’s Tattoo Shop, which is located in Cut Off, Louisiana. She wasn’t alone. 

She was with a man, and they were both getting tattoos together. There are photos of the man sitting in a tattoo chair with Gypsy watching the process.

TMZ talked with the witnesses in the shop who said that Gyspy and the man, who was later identified as Ken, came to the shop around 3 PM. They knew exactly what they wanted done, too, which suggests they had been planning the tattoo.

They ended up getting matching Husky dogs. The tattoo artist put one Husky on the left arm and the other Husky on the other person’s right arm. The idea is that when they put their arms together, the two Huskies face each other.

Gypsy and Ken chose a pair of Huskies because they believe it symbolizes the strong bond they have together. The two didn’t display any affection toward each other and seemed platonic. 

Ken’s Family is Supportive of Gypsy Rose

Ken’s mother, Raina Williams, told People Magazine that the two are just friends right now. She said that following Gypsy’s announcement that she had separated from Ryan, Ken was there to give her some support. They had lunch together before going to the tattoo parlor.

She also said that Gypsy was a sweet girl who made mistakes, but she recognized and saw that Gypsy had learned from them and was doing a lot better. There’s a lot of speculation going around as to whether Gypsy and Ken are truly just friends, and there’s a good reason for it, too. They were once engaged to be married.

Ken first heard about Gypsy after watching the documentary, Mommy Dead and Dearest, which covered her story. His whole family felt sympathetic toward Gypsy, so he decided to write her a letter. She wrote back, and they formed a pen pal relationship.

Eventually, they started to confide in each other and developed feelings. He visited her in jail and one day proposed to her.

As Gypsy’s fame began to grow, however, Ken started to get cold feet. He didn’t want to live with so much publicity surrounding them. So, he broke up with her.

Gypsy would later go on to meet and marry Ryan, who had also watched the documentary and wrote to her. The two ended up getting married while Gypsy was in jail, and she moved in with him after she was released.

At first, their marriage was going strong, but eventually, jealousy and old feelings drew them apart. Gypsy had continued her contact with Ken, which Ryan didn’t like. Gypsy had also admitted that she still had feelings for Ken.

It all came to a head with the couple separating and filing for divorce. With Ken back in Gypsy’s life, and the two getting matching tattoos, fans will have to wait and see if they start up a romantic relationship again.

Morgan Wallen’s ex Katie Smith has gotten engaged again. On the last weekend of March 2024, she announced the news in a joint Instagram post with her new fiance, Luke Scornavacco. In the post, they each captioned their carousel of photos with the same question- “Why Save The Good Things For Later?”

The pictures were of Luke, Katie, and her three-year-old son at Magnolia Farm in Eagleville, Tennessee. She was in a white dress while Luke wore a black outfit which was accessorized by a matching black cowboy hat and boots.

In the first photo, Luke could be seen down on one knee proposing to Katie with a ring, under an arch made from 1,700 flowers. According to Page Six, the ring was a 6.5-carat cushion-cut lab-grown diamond set on a gold and diamond band. It was estimated that it would have cost Luke around $22,000.

In the second photo, Katie and Morgan’s son Indigo could be seen running towards his mom and future step-dad. Another photo featured Kate, Luke, and Indigo alongside two women, who Taste of Country presumed were the mothers of the couple.

Instagram users left their congratulations and well wishes in the comments section of the post, with some of them also asking Katie to confirm if she was engaged or married, or both. One user pointed out the family members leaving comments about how they couldn’t wait to help plan the wedding. 

On April 2nd, Katie uploaded a video of the engagement to her Instagram account. People began commenting that the proposal looked planned. 

Katie clarified that she didn’t know what Luke had planned, but she knew it was going to happen. She explained that she had to know when they planned trips because she co-parented, and Luke was respectful. 

Luke and Katie Have Been Together Less Than a Year

In the video’s comment section, one online user wrote – “3rd times the charm.” Katie confirmed that it would be the third when she replied to the comment. She added that they were about to be married so it shouldn’t matter.

 Page Six revealed that she and Luke have been together since May 2023. A report by Refinery29 talked about how Luke openly talked on his social media about wanting to settle down. 

He reportedly captioned a post of himself driving topless in his pick-up truck with “Who else is ready to get married, start a family, and have a nice ranch out in the country?” A few months after he and Katie began dating, he posted a picture of them together on TikTok.

In November 2023, he called Katie the love of his life on Instagram. He said that he was so thankful to have her, and he couldn’t wait to spend forever with her. 

RELATED: Country Stars Who Have Been Arrested

Katie dated Morgan on and off for three years before she met Luke. They were briefly engaged in 2019. She gave birth to their son the following year in July.

In a 2021 People Magazine interview, Morgan said he was thankful he shared his son with someone he cared about. And that they were trying to do the best they could with the situation. He went on to say that he and Katie faced some difficulties when they first began co-parenting, but the most important thing was that their son was in their lives. 

Diddy’s Man Servant Ready to Talk

P. Diddy’s career has started to implode after an FBI raid on his house, and several allegations about abuse and depraved parties have come to light. One former employee of Diddy’s might bring even more drama.

Celebrities often have assistants who help take care of smaller matters for them. Those assistants typically have a lot of contact with celebrities and end up hearing and seeing a lot of things.

One of Diddy’s most famous assistants is Fonzworth Bentley. He worked with Diddy for years before he eventually left and pursued his own career.

According to his Instagram, Fonzworth may be ready to talk about some of the things he witnessed as Diddy’s assistant. He posted a photo that had a quote from Jay-Z on it that read, ‘When I get nervous, I tell the truth.’ Fonzworth also commented on the photo saying that he was going to upload that picture for now but that he might delete it later.

Fans speculated that Fonzworth was talking about the drama currently unfolding with Diddy. Their relationship goes back years.

Fonzworth was just working as a restaurant manager when he met Diddy. The rapper took him on as an assistant, and Fonzworth took on several duties. He’d help Diddy style his hair, run errands, attend his business meetings, take care of phone calls, wake him up in the morning, and basically do whatever it was that Diddy needed to be done.

Because he was often seen at Diddy’s side, some people started calling him Diddy’s manservant. Fonzworth hated the title, but he did his job well. He was even seen on some music videos or attending special events and award shows with Diddy.

Fonzworth Left Hollywood

Known for his style, Fonzworth started to get a following, too. When he was eventually ready to break from Diddy, he ended up starting a few careers. He’s worked as a music producer, menswear designer, choreographer, stylist, and creative director.

Fonzworth also left Hollywood to return home to the city of Atlanta. There, he married Faune A. Chambers, an actress who has been in movies like Bring It On Again, White Chicks, and Epic Movie. The couple have two children together.

While Fonzworth has spent most of the last few years out of the spotlight, that might change if he chooses to come forward and tell his story. But what sort of stories might he have to tell?

According to CNN, the lawsuits facing Diddy are serious. They include charges of racketeering, sexual assault, and sex trafficking.

Racketeering is a type of organized crime in which one person makes a bad business deal with someone else. It basically harms the other person.

RELATED: R.Kelly Speaks Out On Diddy

Sexual assault is self-explanatory, although it’s worth mentioning that the lawsuit also claims that actor Cuba Gooding Jr. was one of the perpetrators. Human trafficking is when someone forces another person to perform certain acts against their will. Diddy is accused of having some people who were trafficked at some of his parties.

At the time of writing, Diddy’s lawyers have spoken for him and denied all the claims made against him. They said the allegations are all lies. If Fonzworth decides to come forward with information that he witnessed, it could spell trouble for Diddy.

Diddy’s “Adopted” Daughter Speaks Out

Those following the many shocking twists and turns of Diddy’s scandals were hugely concerned when a 2020 video of his so-called adopted daughter resurfaced on TikTok. 

RELATED: Diddy’s Son Speaks Out

Ava Baroni, or Ava Baroni Combs as she’s called in the clip, was allegedly adopted by Diddy, who can be seen in the video next to her. 

Diddy’s Adopted Daughter, Ava Baroni Combs, Said, “I’m Fine dw Pray for Me Pray for My Dad”

Since the clip re-emerged, many online commenters have voiced concern about Ava’s whereabouts. 

A few days ago, a new TikTok account claiming to belong to Ava was created. 

The account, which currently boasts nearly 2000 followers, alleges that Ava is “fine”. 

The account states in its bio, “Hi I’m Ava Baroni Combs I’m fine dw, pray for me, pray for my dad”. 

The very new account so far only contains three videos, which appear to show Ava lip syncing to different songs. 

The captions in the videos, which have already raked in hundreds of thousands of views, also allege that Ava is “fine”. 

However, the authenticity of the account has not been verified, and many are still worried about what they saw in the original clip of her and Diddy. 

Everything that has been said about the clip is just a theory, and nothing has been proven about how Ava and Diddy met. 

In the clip, the disgraced Bad Boy founder tells Ava to introduce herself.

She goes on to say, “My name’s Ava. I’m a Scorpio.”, before Diddy interrupts her and tells her to give her full name. 

She says that her name is “Ava Combs Baroni”. 

Ava Said She Was “On the Streets” Before Diddy

Diddy then goes on to claim that he “adopted” Ava, while acknowledging that she also had her own parents.

However, he then went on to describe Ava as being his child. 

The mogul told Ava to share the story of how he came to adopt her. 

And what she said was pretty horrifying to many viewers. 

Ava jokingly said that she was “on the streets” before Diddy, who she referred to as “Papa Combs” found her. 

She said that Diddy “decided that he was going to be a caring man”. 

Ava continued, “So then he saw me and decided to pick me up and said to come inside and stay with his kids.”

While many were seriously disturbed by what they saw, others have suggested that Ava is probably just a friend of Diddy’s daughters, who she described as “sisters”. 

Page Six recently shared a photo which showed Diddy posing with his two daughters and Ava, all in dresses and holding dogs. 

Diddy himself gave another explanation in the video. 

Diddy’s Goal for Ava’s Adoption: To “Help Her Out”

He said that he adopted Ava in the same way as other celebrities had done in the past.

He went on to namecheck stars including Madonna and Sandra Bullock as examples. 

Diddy then went on to state that his goal was to “take care” of Ava and “help her out”. 

The story of Diddy and Ava spread shortly after the recent raids on Diddy’s homes by the authorities. 

What to Know About Luke Bryan’s Wife Caroline

Photo Credit: Instagram

Caroline Boyer met Luke Bryan at Georgia Southern university. Eght years later, these college sweethearts got married. As Luke rose to superstardom in country music, Caroline has been right there by his side. She describes herself as a “wife, mom, aunt, and best bad influence friend.”

Luke’s wife, Caroline, is three years younger than Luke. She’s got a great sense of humor and also posts relatable content on social media. But there’s a lot more to know about her.

First, she shared that she’s never been the jealous type. “Girls have gone crazy for him since college, so now it’s kind of the norm,” she has said about Luke, adding that he is a beautiful man and women are going to see that. “It honestly never bothered me,” she said.

Fans are used to seeing Luke shaking his behind in jeans. But he has always made it clear that there is a no-touching rule for fans at meet and greets. Luke reportedly even has a tattoo of Caroline’s initials on said behind.

Luke Loves Caroline’s Sense of Humor

But Luke said in an interview with The Boot that he has a normal marriage with Caroline. They fight occasionally and work things out. He has also given examples of Caroline’s crazy sense of humor. For example, she surprised him with an interesting birthday cake one year.

She went to a local bakery called The Sweet Divine and asked for a cake with chocolate chip cookie dough over homemade fondant.

Sounds delicious, right? Wait until you read about the design. The cake was shaped like a toilet with a plunger — filled with you-know-what. Caroline also included a birthday message on the cake to tease Luke about how old he was getting.

Caroline Has a Big Heart

When she isn’t joking around, Caroline loves animals and the outdoors. In 2017, she opened Brett’s Barn on her private property. She named this special place to honor her brother Bo and sister-in-law Ellen’s first child, Brett, who was diagnosed with Down syndrome and a congenital heart defect before she was born.

After a courageous battle and 100 grueling days in the hospital, baby Brett sadly passed away. On the Brett’s Barn website, Caroline wrote a heartbreaking yet positive message. She revealed that the barn was a “product of grief, and the kind of pain that you feel in every part, every inch, of your whole body.”

Unfortunately, Caroline and Luke have experienced a significant amount of grief. Luke’s brother passed away before Luke made it big in country music. Later, he lost his sister and his brother-in-law too. But when baby Brett passed, Caroline wanted to choose happiness over hurt.

She wanted to honor her baby niece and keep a promise she’d made when Brett was just a month old. Caroline found a white pony at a local animal rescue facility — one of the first animals to live at Brett’s barn. Caroline and her sister-in-law made a video about how sick and disabled kids can visit Brett’s Barn and pet the animals.

Caroline Made the First Move On Luke

Did you know that Caroline actually made the first move on Luke? The two have been interviewed about their relationship numerous times over the years. On social media, they are often referred to with the hashtag couple goals, but Caroline told People that she had to kiss Luke first.

Caroline was a younger freshman, and Luke was a college senior, and she said that Luke treated her like a friend because he was too scared of making her uncomfortable. Luke appears to have had a good reason for not wanting to scare Caroline away.

He has revealed that he fell in love with her at first sight. The first time he set eyes on Caroline, she walked into a college bar in Statesboro, Georgia. Luke told The Boot that it took him about eight seconds to think to himself: “Yep, I’m going to marry that girl.”

Caroline and Luke Have Broken Up Before

Although Caroline and Luke’s romantic journey had plenty of ups and downs. Luke opened up to Kellie Pickler and Ben Aaron about their love story on an episode of Pickler & Ben. Luke dated Caroline during his senior year in college. Shockingly, he claimed that they were on and off and broke up a couple of times.

Caroline claims that she was the one who finally ended it. Luke revealed it was devastating for both of them at the time — and their relationship entered what Luke now calls “the dark ages.” This happened after Luke graduated from Georgia Southern University.

Luke left Georgia for Nashville. He admitted that he didn’t see Caroline for five and a half years. However, he called their time apart a blessing. After Caroline graduated from college, she began a successful career as a traveling sales rep.

While Luke took all the time he needed to break into country music, he occasionally came home to play shows around the college where he met Caroline. Caroline later admitted that attended Luke’s shows. She would wave at him, talk to him and go hug him. She had a gut feeling that he wanted her there.

One night, Luke played a gig in Statesboro. Caroline showed up to that gig, too. Luke told HuffPost that they began emailing each other a little bit after that. Then Caroline made another move: She invited Luke to a family Christmas party in Atlanta.

When Luke showed up, he kissed her. And, as Luke said, the rest is history. Caroline and Luke had a destination wedding in Turks and Caicos. In a hilarious wedding photo, you’ll see that Caroline got to break the no touching rule.

Caroline Was the Breadwinner at First

Luke has confessed that Caroline really stepped up after they got married.

He hadn’t yet reached the pinnacle of success in his country music career. He claims that he was only making $10,000 a year back then. Luke isn’t ashamed to admit that Caroline made all the money when they first got married — and she continued to become the great wife and mom she is today.

She got pregnant with their first baby just six months after the wedding. Caroline and Luke’s first surprise baby, Thomas, was born in March 2008. While Luke was overjoyed to become a first-time dad and gain a new “fishing buddy,” Caroline would soon experience her first tragedy as a young mom and wife.

In 2009, she had a miscarriage. She revealed intimate details when she appeared on Get Real with Caroline Hobby. While she admitted that both of her pregnancies had been unexpected, the loss really hurt. Thankfully, she and Luke welcomed their second son, Tatum, in August 2010.

Luke And Caroline Adopted His Nieces

Caroline also opened her heart and home to Luke’s nieces, Kris and Jordan, and his nephew, Tilden, after they lost both of their parents. “We never thought twice about it,” she said.

Luke and Caroline have earned the right to be called a couple goals on social media, but they’re also normal married people — and Caroline would have it no other way.

Husband of Conjoined Twins Hit with Paternity Suit

The honeymoon phase for conjoined twins, Abby and Brittany Hensel, hit a slight bump after Abby’s new husband was hit with a paternity suit.

According to the Daily Mail, Josh Bowling was given the lawsuit by his ex-wife, Annica Bowling, in October 2023.

The newly married couple had only been married for two years before they found themselves in a legal battle.

The lawsuit doesn’t just involve Josh, either.

RELATED: Jimmie Allen Lawsuit

It’s against two men, Josh, and a man named Gavin Vatnsdal.

While the court documents list that there was a paternity test, it doesn’t describe the results of the test.

There’s another child involved in the lawsuit, too.

In Josh’s case, the lawsuit extends to the daughter he shares with his ex, Isabella.

The other child is unnamed, and it’s undisclosed whether the lawsuit pertains to her and Gavin.

Either way, in Josh’s case, the lawsuit concerns the shared custody order he has with Annica.

Josh and Abby Got Married Just Two Years After He Separated from His Wife

Josh and Annica were married in 2010 and stayed married for almost ten years.

They separated in 2019 and had their divorce settled on April 23, 2020.

Josh and Abby would end up getting married only two years after he separated from his wife.

Speaking of their wedding, Isabella played a special part in the ceremony.

She was one of Abby’s bridesmaids and walked in carrying a sign that read, ‘Daddy, here comes your bride.’

This likely wasn’t the first time fans had seen Isabella, either.

Abby Shared Photos of Her and Josh on Social Media Before They Married

Before they got married, Abby had shared photos on Instagram and Facebook of her time spent with Josh.

In some of those photos, Isabella was there, too.

After getting married, there are several photos of the four of them together.

They’re seen hiking and doing other activities together as a family. 

The photos suggest that Isabella lives primarily with them.

The lawsuit, itself, requested Josh to take a paternity test to determine if he was genetically the father of Isabella.

This is a typical step taken when one of the parents wants to increase child support payments or change the custody agreement.

Despite the drama, Abby and Josh seem to be enjoying their newly married lives.

Josh works in a hospice, but before then, he served in the army and also worked as a nurse.

Abby and Brittany are fifth-grade teachers and work in the same area where they grew up.

When the news broke that Abby had gotten married, they were met with both love and hate.

Some fans congratulated them, while others made mean jokes.

Abby and Brittany Addressed Hate Messages

Abby and Brittany addressed the hate messages in a post of their own.

They shared a video on TikTok that was meant directly for the haters.

In the video, they said that those who watched everything they did even though they don’t like them or what they’re doing, they’re still technically fans.

However, the sisters are ignoring the hate and looking to the future.

With one of them married, their next big goal is to have children of their own.

It’s something they’ve wanted since they were young, themselves.

The good news is that since they share all the same organs from the waist down, it’s possible for them to carry a baby traditionally.

The biggest question they’re still grappling with is how to go about it and who would legally be the mother.

That might end up becoming another paternity lawsuit in itself for Josh if his marriage with Abby doesn’t quite work out.

Paris Hilton Responds to Why She Hasn’t Shown Her Daughter Yet

Paris Hilton has always been active on social media, but when fans started noticing that she never posted pictures of her youngest baby, London, rumors started spreading.

The questions started coming after Paris posted a TikTok video of her older son, Phoenix.

In the video, Phoenix is babbling and playing with a toy while Paris is laughing in the background.

The Reason Why Paris Hilton Is Hesitant to Share Photos of Daughter, London

In the comments, fans started to ask why she hadn’t posted any pictures of London yet.

Many fans were eager to meet the newest addition to the Hilton family.

Some fans were also aware of why Paris may be choosing to wait to share London with the rest of the world.

One commented that they couldn’t wait until Paris felt safe enough to share London with the rest of them.

Paris replied to that comment by sharing her love and promising that she’d be sharing London soon.

The answer suggests that Paris is waiting to show everyone London because she wants to protect her.

Paris is likely taking London’s safety more seriously since she experienced some surprising bullying with Phoenix.

Paris Surprised That People Could Bully an Innocent Baby

While she was speaking with People Magazine, Paris talked about how surprised she was that people could be mean enough to bully an innocent baby.

In particular, people were making fun of how large Phoenix’s head appeared in his photos.

She felt the need to protect him and was amazed that she had to do that in the first place.

Because of that experience, Paris likely wanted to spare London from any bullying, too.

Paris’ husband, Carter Reum, also commented on why they haven’t shown London in their social media posts yet.

RELATED: The Sad Truth of Paris Hilton’s Marriage

The comment came on a series of posts that Paris made on Instagram.

The posts showed the family celebrating Easter.

When asked by a fan when they were going to see London, Carter replied saying that they weren’t quite ready to share London with the world yet.

Paris Hilton’s Husband, Carter Reum, said Daughter, London, “Looked Just Like Her Mother”

He called London adorable, though, and said that she looked just like her mother.

So, the parents may be just enjoying their own private bubble with London before the rest of the world gets to see her.

London is also only a few months old, having been born in late 2023.

With predators using social media, the parents likely want to wait until London is a bit older before they start posting her on social media.

Paris officially revealed that she and Carter had a daughter on Thanksgiving in 2023.

People Magazine covered the big moment, which had Paris sharing a photo of a pink outfit with the name ‘London’ on it.

In the caption, Paris wrote that she was thankful for her daughter.

Like Phoenix, London was also born via a surrogate.

After announcing London’s arrival, Paris posted several videos celebrating the news.

In one of her videos, the family is dancing around the dinner table with Carter chanting ‘big brother’ to Phoenix.

Paris also posted a video of Phoenix asking if he was going to be a big brother and if he was going to look after London.

The family is clearly happy to have a daughter in the house, but fans will have to wait until they’re ready for them to share London with everyone.

The Truth On Jeff Gordon’s Ex-Wife Brooke

Photo Credit: Jeff Gordon

Jeff Gordon is one of the most legendary athletes in NASCAR. But there’s one element of Jeff’s personal life that is nowhere near as glamorous or successful as his career on the track: his first marriage. From cheating scandals to crazy demands in court, Jeff’s divorce from his first wife, Brooke Sealey, was unbelievably messy.

While his 25-year career hardly has any blemishes, Jeff’s seven-year marriage crashed and burned into a fiery mess. Brooke wasn’t just some random nobody when she linked up with Jeff. She was Miss Winston, a model who represented NASCAR’s series sponsor at the time.

How Jeff Gordon Met His First Wife Brooke

The R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company leased NASCAR from 1997 to 2003 and named their Winston series after their popular cigarette brand. They hand-picked the models to represent the company on the massive stage that NASCAR provided as it exploded in popularity, always looking for the most beautiful women.

Brooke was one of them — and she caught Jeff’s eye on the track. In 1993, when Jeff was beginning to make a real name for himself in the sport, he won Winston Cup Series Rookie of the Year driving his iconic number 24 car.

RELATED: What Happened to Kenny Rogers’ Wife

He went on to win two qualifying races for the Daytona 500, which seriously raised his profile in the sport and everyone started to take notice, including Brooke.

Before too long, the two of them got together. They kept their romance under wraps at first. They realized that there could be a lot of media scrutiny on them. But more significantly, there was a rule forbidding NASCAR drivers from dating Winston models.

Jeff and Brooke Kept their Relationship a Secret at First

They couldn’t be seen together as a couple and were constantly sneaking around so that neither of them would get in trouble. Even though, realistically, Brooke would be the only person to face serious consequences, since she was significantly more replaceable than Jeff.

In a Sports Illustrated interview in 1995, Jeff even bragged that he had become a master at sneaking in and out of hotels thanks to his secret relationship. But he and Brooke couldn’t keep things a secret for long. In 1994, they finally got married.

After Brooke’s time as a Winston girl came to a close, and they no longer had to sneak around, Jeff and Brooke revealed themselves to be the hottest couple in NASCAR. It seemed like things were going great for the newlyweds. According to Brooke, they had the cutest proposal.

She said that Jeff approached her at Daytona and asked her to get lunch, but she could tell something was up by how nervous he was. His voice was apparently quivering. Jeff said that he went to the bathroom five times during that lunch, just to make sure that he could get the ring right for when he popped the question.

A Shocking Divorce Announcement

But if Jeff knew how bad their marriage was going to end, he probably would’ve kept that ring in his pocket…Everything seemed like it was going great for Jeff and Brooke — until Brooke filed for divorce seemingly out of nowhere in 2002. The reason for divorce was stated as “irretrievably broken as a result of husband’s marital misconduct.”

That’s pretty messy…Usually, couples just list something like irreconcilable differences. But clearly, Brooke wanted the whole world to know what happened. It’s even worse because Jeff famously protected his squeaky clean image. Without that, he wouldn’t have all his lucrative brand endorsements.

RELATED: What Happened to Johnny Cash’s First Wife?

Jeff even rejected a big payday to work with an adult beverage sponsor on a commercial. But all of that came crashing down around him with this news. People couldn’t believe that Jeff would ever cheat on his wife.

As the divorce continued to get messier in the public eye, that would turn out to be the least shocking part of the whole ordeal.

Brooke’s demands during the divorce settlement blew people’s minds when they became public. She asked to have an airplane, use of the couple’s boats, two cars, and an alimony payment on top of that. Brooke’s requests seemed so excessive that the media even labeled her Crook Gordon.

Even though it seemed like the divorce was Jeff’s fault due to infidelity, the outrageous asks made by Brooke’s divorce attorneys had people supporting Jeff…

Brooke Brought the Drama to the NASCAR Track

In February 2003, Brooke’s attorney Terry Young actually brought the divorce drama to the track. He went to the Daytona 500 specifically to serve legal papers at the track to Jeff’s closest colleagues, all in an effort to find out how much he was really worth.

That bottom line was going to be important in finding out how much Brooke could ask for. But Jeff and the rest of the NASCAR community just accused Brooke of turning one of the year’s biggest events into a circus instead of focusing on the sport.

There are definitely quieter ways to serve someone with a subpoena than in the middle of an event like the Daytona 500. At the time, Jeff’s lawyers had already filed paperwork saying he was worth $48.8 million, which Brooke would be entitled to half of under Florida law.

But she thought he was hiding money from her and wanted even more. The dramatic divorce dragged on for over 16 months before it was finalized on June 13th, 2003. Almost 10 years after they met on the track, Brooke and Jeff finally went their separate ways.

By the time all was said and done, Brooke received a whopping $15.3 million. The division of the couple’s assets wasn’t publicly disclosed, but you can make an educated guess that she probably got a good chunk of what she was after.

What Happened to Brooke Sealey?

And if you’re wondering who the mystery woman is that broke up this happy home, her name is Deanna Merryman. She was an actress and fitness model who was even on the cover of Iron Man magazine.

The year before their divorce got announced, tabloids linked Jeff and Deanna. But even if the rumors were true, the romance didn’t last. The month before Brooke’s attorney was gearing up to head to Daytona, Jeff was with a model named Amanda Church in St. Barts.

Clearly, he wasn’t too broken up about the divorce. Although, for such a self-proclaimed master of sneaking in and out of hotel rooms, he apparently lost his ability to be subtle and blend in. In the end, there’s no such thing as a good divorce, but Jeff and Brooke’s was pretty bitter.

For a couple who spent so much of their early relationship staying out of the spotlight, they really went out with a bang toward the end. Brooke seems to have gotten what she wanted, and both she and Jeff moved on.

Jeff married Belgian model and actress Ingrid Vandebosch in 2006. Brooke married twice: first to James Dixon, and then to Mullins McLeod.

When her marriage to James didn’t work out, James was the one looking for alimony payments. He got them from Brooke to the tune of $10,000 a month, a $1.5 million house, and an expensive Mercedes Benz…

Janelle Brown’s late son, Robert Garrison Brown, was honored by the Nevada National Guard. She recently spoke out following the event. 

In Touch reported that Janelle called it a “beautiful moment” in a social media update. She also shared photos from Garrison’s memorial service and revealed how the loss of her son is affecting her mentally.

“It’s been hard to get my brain to work properly again,” Janelle wrote. She added that she was grateful for the love and support she’s received in the past three weeks.

Janelle added that the support “has been overwhelming.” She was “honored” that so many fans and followers reached out to her and shared stories of their loved ones.

She also thanked everyone from the bottom of her heart for keeping her in their thoughts and praying for her. Janelle said that Garrison would have “loved” receiving a tribute from his unit in the National Guard at his celebration of life ceremony.

She also defended herself for sharing photos from Garrison’s memorial service. She understood that many fans and followers would have “already seen a lot” of the photos online, and she’d seen many “snarky comments” that accompanied the photos. But Janelle shut down the negativity by confessing, “This was a beautiful moment for us.”

According to In Touch, Janelle was sitting in the front row at Garrison’s memorial service while Kody Brown and his remaining wife, Robyn Brown, sat “a few seats away.” Several Brown family members “looked to be in tears as they honored” Garrison at the celebration of life, per InTouch. Garrison was only 25 years old when he passed away on March 4th due to a “self-inflicted” injury.

Kody and Janelle’s “spiritual marriage” officially ended in December 2022. But on March 5th, following the news of Garrison’s passing, Janelle and Kody released a joint statement that revealed their shared pain.

They expressed their sadness in having to announce “the loss of their beautiful boy, Robert Garrison Brown.” They added that Garrison was a “bright spot in the lives of all who knew him.”

Janelle and Kody wrote that Garrison’s loss would leave “a big hole in their lives,” so much so that it took their breath away. They also pleaded for privacy while inviting people to “join them” in honoring their late son’s memory.

March 8th was another emotional day for Janelle, as she explained on social media. She reflected on Christmas 2023 and revealed it was the last holiday where she had all her kids together. Janelle and Kody had six kids.

Kody and Garrison Were Estranged

While the memory had to have been painful for Janelle, she also admitted, “It was amazing as it’s hard with everybody’s busy lives to coordinate time like this.” She even wrote how “extremely grateful” she was that she’d gotten group photos with her entire family. Unfortunately, sources have revealed to media outlets, including In Touch, that Kody and Garrison were “estranged” before Garrison passed away.

Several years ago, they had a falling out that many Sister Wives fans and followers were aware of. This happened during pandemic shutdowns when Kody demanded that all his wives and families follow “strict rules” to decrease the possibility of spreading the virus.

Garrison did not want to follow Kody’s rules. Janelle was forced to navigate the anger and resentment between her son and husband. 

Later, Today reported that “tension” had been brewing between Kody and Janelle throughout seasons 17 and 18 of Sister Wives. Kody had been the “family patriarch” for decades. But following his estrangement with Garrison and Kody admitting on-air that his relationship with Janelle was “pretty strained,” he began to devote his time and energy to the wife who remained by his side, Robyn. 

Kody’s other “spiritual wife,” Christine, left him just over a year before Janelle split up with him. Although Kody was legally married to Meri Brown in 1990, People reported in December 2022 that they had split up. Meri and Kody jointly announced their divorce in January 2023.

In Touch alleged that “cameras were reportedly rolling” on a new season of Sister Wives after Garrison’s passing, but a premiere date has yet to be confirmed.

Diddy’s son has broken his silence. Ever since Diddy’s homes were raided on March 25th, Diddy, and his family have remained pretty quiet about what happened. 

US Weekly reported that on Friday, Diddy’s 25-year-old son King addressed being detained by Homeland Security on social media. On Snapchat, he wrote, “Stop With The Cap.” According to US Weekly, “cap” is slang for lying. 

King’s cryptic message did not specify what exactly he was referring to. But the website pointed out that it came just days after the house raids.

FOX 11 LA reported that Diddy’s homes in Los Angeles and Miami were raided by Homeland Security Investigations in connection with a federal trafficking case. Diddy was not present at either of his houses at the time. A TMZ report revealed that two of his sons were at his $40 million home in Holmby Hills, Los Angeles.

It claimed that King and Justin Combs were seen in handcuffs outside Diddy’s mansion at the time of the raid. The two sons came back separately to the house later on to collect some of their belongings before leaving again.

According to US Weekly, neither Diddy nor his sons have been charged or arrested in connection to the ongoing investigation. Diddy’s attorney, Aaron Dryer, told the media news outlet that there was no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities, or the way that his children and employees were treated.

Justin is a Defendant in the Latest Complaint Against Diddy

King and Justin have different moms. King’s mother was the late Kim Porter, while Justin’s is Misa Hylton. 

On March 26th, US Weekly shared documents they’d obtained and reported that along with his father, Justin was also one of the defendants in the latest complaint against Diddy. The amended complaint was made by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones.

While it’s unclear what the music producer has accused Justin of doing, he claimed that his father was inappropriate with him as well as harmful while they traveled and lived together for a year between 2022-2023. Diddy denied the allegations against him. In a statement to US Weekly, his lawyer Shawn Holley called Lil Rod a “liar who filed a $30 million lawsuit, shamelessly looking for an undeserved payday.”

In the summer of 2023, Justin also faced legal troubles when he was reportedly arrested for a DUI. According to Atlanta Black Star, he was arrested around 8 am on June 4th after he ran a red light.

The police officers who stopped him could allegedly smell that he’d been drinking. Authorities informed ET that he was put through a sobriety test that he failed. He ended up being booked on a misdemeanor DUI charge and his bond was set at $5000.

Atlanta Black Star reported that the day after Justin’s arrest, his mother seemingly slammed Diddy in a series of now-deleted Instagram stories. In one of her posts, she wrote that the statement “a fish rots from the head down.”
