Larry the Cable Guy was one of the biggest TV stars of the 2000s. But he seems to have disappeared in the past few years. And the truth about what happened to Larry is shocking. From why his show got canceled to his relationship with his wife, you guys are not ready for this one…

Larry was once a huge part of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour gang. He toured the world with fellow comedians Jeff Foxworthy, Ron White, and Bill Engvall. But Larry wasn’t just the third wheel at stand-up gigs. He also starred in movie comedies like Witless Protection and Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector.

In addition, Larry has released an astonishing number of comedy albums. His 10 albums include “The Right to Bare Arms,” which was certified platinum. And when Larry got honored with his own Comedy Central roast in 2009, everyone figured that he would be around forever.

Where Is Larry the Cable Guy Now?

But fast-forward to now, and it’s like Larry is nowhere to be seen. So, what happened to him? Well, for starters, Larry’s real name is Dan Whitney. And when Dan transformed into Larry, some crazy stuff ended up happening.

In 2011, The History Channel gave Larry a reality TV show. It was called Only in America with Larry the Cable Guy. Larry traveled around the country, doing silly things that his fan base craved. He worked behind the scenes at a circus and rode around with a real biker gang.

He even went digging for gold once. Larry was going everywhere, and his show was a huge hit on television. Then, something happened that shocked millions of television viewers. His show got canceled after just three seasons. Dan would later explain the two reasons why he gave up a super-popular reality show like Larry.

First, he was told that Larry would be attending a music festival in Pennsylvania for an episode of the show. If that doesn’t sound bad, it gets worse. Dan would be posing as Larry at the music festival and would be there to clean the portable toilets.

Dan later told a reporter the details: “I didn’t want to do it. I mean, that was one of the nastiest things on the planet.”When you hear that excuse, you might think that Larry didn’t need another reason to quit the show, but he still had a very valid reason for leaving reality TV.

Larry the Cable Guy had become really popular, and Dan finally realized that it was negatively affecting his personal life. Not only was Larry touring with his Blue Collar comedian friends, but when the reality show filming got added to his hectic work schedule, Dan often found himself away from home for up to six nights a week.

That’s crazy enough, too. But when you find out how Dan really feels about his superstar success, you won’t believe it either. He started doing stand-up comedy in the early 1990 with one goal in mind: to make enough to pay the bills.

What Is Larry the Cable Guy’s Net Worth?

Before Larry walked away from mostly everything, he was pitching products, starring in movies, filming a reality show, and selling out stadiums doing comedy tours. Celebrity net worth websites calculated Larry’s worth to be a shocking $100 million.

Sources claimed that he’d racked up to $20 million a year just by being a product spokesman. One time in particular, Larry got paid to endorse a pharmaceutical product named Prilosec and reportedly earned tens of millions of dollars for it.

Dan bought a multi-million dollar estate in Scottsdale, Arizona. He also has a main home, a ranch in Nebraska. But while Dan has earned a cushy living by performing as Larry, he’s also confessed some shocking things about Hollywood.

Dan has revealed that he created Larry to be a country kid that appealed to his target demographic. But in the entertainment industry, Larry has been attacked by some members of the media. Dan says that Larry got stereotyped as a racist redneck. So, Larry has always felt like an outsider in Hollywood.

Who Is Larry the Cable Guy’s Wife?

In his real life, Dan is married to Cara Whitney. Cara grew up in Wisconsin on a cattle ranch. When Larry started touring with the Blue Collar comedians, he did a show in Las Vegas. Cara was working in Vegas as a DJ. They met in Sin City and instantly hit it off.

After a few years of dating and juggling Larry’s crazy work schedule, the two of them got engaged. They got married in Nebraska in July 2005, where Dan grew up, and they both called it their dream wedding. Dan and Cara didn’t exchange vows in a church in Nebraska.

They got married in a field. Dan wore a cut-off sweatshirt, and if you’re picturing Cara in a flowing white gown, you won’t believe this. Cara wore a camp tank top and shorts. After the I dos, there was a laid-back wedding reception. Wedding guests enjoyed reheated lasagna followed by fireworks.

To Dan and Cara, it was perfect — and it only cost them $180 to pull off. Dan has always praised and supported his wife. He’s posted pics on social media with captions poking fun at himself. He likes to joke about how he married a beautiful woman who’s out of his league.

Cara is religious, and she’s published faith-based books and gone on book tours. Dan also loves to acknowledge Cara’s success on social media.

The couple has two kids, Wyatt and Reagan — and Dan is apparently a hands-on dad now that he’s home more. His 180-acre farm in Lincoln, Nebraska, has a dozen horses and lots of dogs and cats. But while life at home has been mostly good for Dan, there have been some challenges, too.

Dan and Cara’s son Wyatt was born with a painful handicap called hip dysplasia. While Wyatt was eventually cured, there were plenty of medical bills. Not only did Dan pay the bills like he’d hoped to when he started doing comedy in the 90s, but he also used his Larry the Cable Guy millions to benefit others in need.

Larry and his Wife Are Philanthropists

Dan and Cara have donated outdoor artwork to his hometown of Pawnee City, Nebraska. He donated money to his old high school for improvements, like new curtains and a soundboard for the gymnasium. Dan and Cara also gave significant donations to the International Hip Dysplasia Institute.

In September 2010, they donated $5 million to a children’s hospital financed by the late golfer Arnold Palmer. Dan and Cara also founded the Git-R-Done Foundation to assist veterans and their children. In November 2020, Dan reappeared as Larry for a Netflix comedy special.

When he performs as Larry now, Dan talks about how Cara put him on a diet. He says that his wife lets him have one diet cheat day, or, as Larry jokes, a cheat day is “any time I drive by a fast-food restaurant when she’s not with me in the car.”

In his comedy special, Larry also made cracks you won’t believe about his mother-in-law. The mother-in-law won a hot dog eating contest when she devoured 40 weiners in 10 minutes. Larry also joked about his wife’s favorite show in Las Vegas. According to him, Cara LOVES the male dance revue Chippendales.

Larry joked: “You know why she likes going to the Chippendales? She didn’t marry very good… she married a ‘chunk-endale.” But when he’s not being Larry, people cannot believe one SHOCKING thing about Dan. He didn’t grow up sounding like Larry in real life.

Dan confessed in interview that his southern accent is all an act, and that people get shocked when they hear his voice and midwestern accent. Some people still can’t believe that Larry isn’t real.

While Larry might just be a character, it looks like he hasn’t completely disappeared after all. That should make Larry’s target demographic happy — and Dan sounds happier, too now that his work-life balance is a little better.

Usher’s New Marriage Details

We’re finally starting to learn more about Usher’s unplanned wedding to his new wife Jennifer Goicoechea. He talked to Entertainment Tonight while attending the 2024 NAACP Image Awards.

One of the things he was asked about was his recent nuptials, which he described as an “incredible moment.” The 45-year-old went on to suggest that the celebrations weren’t over yet. He hinted that he and Jennifer were still planning on having a full wedding in the future, which Usher said would be “over the top.”

However, they officially became husband and wife on the night of Usher’s Super Bowl Halftime Show appearance. The singer told ET that the couple decided to get legally married that very night, explaining that it felt like the “button on the end of an incredible Las Vegas run.”

Last year, Usher’s residency show in Las Vegas ended shortly before his first performance at the Super Bowl. The news of his impromptu marriage obviously shocked a lot of people around the world.

But Usher let us know that it also came as a shock to his own family. He said that both his and Jennifer’s mothers were there, as well as their kids and immediate families.

Usher continued by admitting that “everybody was surprised” when he told them the wedding was happening right then and there. He laughed when he recalled telling his family that he and Jennifer were “gonna go have Elvis officiate us.”

Jonnetta Did Not Attend Usher’s Previous Wedding

Usher and Jennifer got married in Vegas Weddings’ drive-thru tunnel, known as The Fast Lane. Although they were surprised, his family seemingly were very happy to be part of the spontaneous ceremony.

Usher’s mom, Jonetta Patton, served as the couple’s witness, according to People magazine. This meant that in at least one way, Usher’s family was more pleased about this marriage than his first one.

In 2007 it was reported that Jonnetta and Usher had long-standing issues centered around his relationship with his first wife, Tameka Foster. In fact, Jonnetta had not even attended Tameka and Usher’s wedding.

A source close to Usher’s family talked to People magazine about Jonnetta’s absence from her son’s wedding. The insider said that Jonnetta had instead decided to spend the day at a spa in Atlanta. At the time, this sparked several allegations that Usher and his mom did not get along.

So the fact that Jonetta was the witness at his latest wedding could suggest that she’s much happier with her son’s choice this time around. Usher’s relationship with his mom has had many ups and downs over the years, but lately, everything looks a lot brighter for them.

At the NAACP Image Awards, Usher was honored with the President’s Award. In his acceptance speech, he made sure to thank two of the most important women in his life for their support. He said, “With every strong man is a stronger woman, and for that, I thank my mother and my beautiful wife Jennifer for holding me down.”

No additional details have been shared about Usher and Jennifer’s upcoming “over the top” wedding party.

R-Kelly’s Daughter Speaks Out

March 19, 2024

Buku Abi, who was born Joann Kelly, is R. Kelly’s daughter, and like her father, she has a musical career. But that’s about where the similarities end.

Buku spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about her career and how tough it was to grow up as R. Kelly’s daughter. When she was a child, Buku wasn’t aware of some of her father’s criminal problems. She had no idea that he was misbehaving with minors.

At home, he was just her dad, and her parents did what they could to keep the bad press from entering the home. When she went to school, however, that’s when she started to learn about what her father was involved with.

Buku didn’t go to public school until she was in the fifth grade. By then, she already had her own idea of who her dad was, which was that he was a great musical artist and father. In reality, by this point, R. Kelly was already being investigated for some troubling claims from young women and girls.

She was bullied at school, and the students were mean to her about her dad. It got so bad that she even considered harming herself. The only thing that saved her was music.

Buku Fell in Love with Music

Originally, Buku didn’t want anything to do with music. That was something her dad did, and she wanted to find her own thing. However, when she had a performance at school that required her to sing, and she took the stage, she called the experience so intense.

She loved it, and she wanted more of it. Buku stopped running from her musical talent and decided to embrace it. She claimed that following a music career is what ultimately saved her from harming herself.

Following a music career meant that Buku was faced with the unique challenge of being R. Kelly’s daughter. She’s called it a double-edged sword.

RELATED: Who Is Ludacris’s Daughter

There are those in the industry who want to work with her because they believe it’s a way of getting back at R. Kelly. There are also those in the industry who want nothing to do with her because of who her father is.

Buku said she tries not to let those who immediately judge or make assumptions about her get to her because music saved her life. There’s nothing in the world that would stop her from pursuing music because she has such a strong connection to it.

That said, she’s also aware that her music ties her to her dad. They’re both R&B singers, although Buku would likely classify herself as an alternative R&B singer.

His music even inspires her. She said that he’s made mistakes and has some stuff to deal with, but when it comes to his music, she can’t take that away from him. It’s the one area that connects them.

Back when Buku was using the stage name Ariirayé, Buku thought she might mend her relationship with R. Kelly. Part of that process was doing a song together.

Buku Doesn’t Want to Be Judged for her Father’s Choices

The song, Wanna Be There, was about restoring a broken relationship. It debuted on The Buffet, released in 2015.

In the song, R. Kelly sings that he wants to be there to support his daughter. When she finds success, he wants to be there with her, too.

Buku explained that at the time of writing and recording the song, she was trying to fix her relationship with her dad. While she’s glad of the experience and thinks it’s a good song, the process didn’t help her relationship with him. Still, many people claimed that it helped them come together.

R. Kelly has faced and continues to face charges for crimes that involve women and young women. Even Buku’s mother was in a documentary called Surviving R. Kelly, in which the victims of his crimes share their stories. She was there to tell her story of how R. Kelly physically harmed her while they were together.

As for Buku, she tries to stay away from the news about her dad. Since she doesn’t have much of a relationship with him anymore, she doesn’t let his troubles interfere with her life or goals.

Her mom, Drea Kelly, also shared how proud she was of her daughter during an episode of Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta. In the episode, she said that she’s proud of Buku for creating her own music career and making her own decisions instead of relying on her connection to her dad to get gigs.

Buku claimed that the bullying she received as a child helped her grow some armor. Handling the press and what some people say about her and her dad is a bit easier for her because of those experiences.

She just doesn’t want people to judge her for her dad’s problems.

Kris Jenner’s Sister Has Died

March 19, 2024

Kris Jenner’s sister, Karen Houghton, has tragically passed away at the age of 65, according to TMZ. Karen was Kris’s only sibling. She was just three years younger than Kris.

She leaves behind one daughter, Natalie Zettel, who she shared with her ex-husband, Mark. It’s currently unclear exactly how she passed away, but San Diego County officials are saying it was due to natural causes.

Kris shared a post on her Instagram about her passing, writing:

“It is with the heaviest heart and deepest sadness that I share that my sister Karen passed away yesterday unexpectedly. My heart aches for my mom MJ and my niece Natalie and I pray that God guides us all through this difficult time.”

“Karen was beautiful inside and out. She was the sweetest, kindest, the most sensitive and vulnerable and so so funny. She always felt grateful and thankful for her life and treasured her family and friends, and especially her beautiful daughter.”

“She holds such a huge part of my heart and I cherish every single memory we have together. Karen’s passing is a reminder that life is so short and precious and tomorrow is never promised. We must tell those we cherish how much we love them. I love you my beautiful sister.”

Karen and Kris Have a Turbulent History

Kris and Karen were allegedly in a fight for many years leading up to her passing. Many believe this is why Karen was never actively involved in the family’s reality TV empire.

Voicemails leaked of Karen yelling at Kris in 2013. Karen allegedly leaked the voicemails herself and later regretted it.

She also spoke out about Kris’s separation and divorce from Caitlyn Jenner that same year. Karen vocally spoke out in support of Caitlyn, not Kris. She even made headlines in 2016 when she went through a five-hour facelift to look more like her sister, Kris.

It’s unclear if Kris and Karen were able to repair their relationship before her unfortunate passing. However, they did share a family photo together in 2019 with MJ, Natalie, and Kylie Jenner at Christmas.

Kris and Karen’s mom, MJ, has yet to speak out about her daughter’s passing. The rest of the Kardashian and Jenner family has not spoken out yet either.

Karen’s daughter, Natalie, is an Instagram influencer with 53,000 followers. She hasn’t posted anything since February 28, 2024, or made a statement regarding her mother’s unexpected passing.

Karen lived a life largely out of the spotlight. She was allegedly a part-time nurse and author in the years before her passing. According to sources from TMZ, Kris is very upset about her sister’s passing, and she’s worried about her mother and niece.

Luke Combs’ Wife: What to Know About Nicole

March 19, 2024

After Luke Combs met his future wife, Nicole Hocking, he told Nashville Lifestyles that Nicole “was different than anybody I had ever met.”

Nicole and Luke were both at the key west songwriters festival in 2016. She told Shawn Johnson and Andrew East on the couple things podcast that she met Luke while leaving a songwriting event.

As Nicole was walking out, Luke was walking in, and he was late. Nicole is from Florida and was with a group of friends that night.

She noticed that Luke was all alone – and Nicole already knew about Luke through mutual friends back in Nashville. So Nicole admitted that she technically made the first move.

Luke Comb’s Wife Nicole Made the First Move

She told Luke, “Hey, come hang out with us. Why are you by yourself?”And that started a beautiful real-life romance that inspired Luke’s hit song, “Beautiful crazy.”

While Nicole wasn’t a country music celebrity when she met Luke, she worked in the industry at BMIi in Nashville.

BMIi stands for Broadcast Music Inc., and Nicole was a full-time recruiting coordinator. Nicole is also a graduate of Florida Gulf Coast university. She has a degree in civil engineering. Luke has set the record straight on where he was at, career-wise, the night he met Nicole.

He called himself a “starving artist” and also revealed that he looked bad the night he met Nicole, too. Luke claims he was wearing camo gym shorts from Walmart and the oldest t-shirt he owned.

Luke admitted in an interview with NBC’s Willie Geist that he lived in an apartment above a strip mall in Nashville. Downstairs at the strip mall was a Domino’s pizza, a tanning salon, and a country dive bar.

Luke Was a Struggling Artist When the Two Met

Luke said he was a bouncer at the country bar when he began looking for places to perform his live music. He revealed to Willie how hard it was to land his first paying gig, but at least he’d met Nicole, and they had started hanging out whenever they could.

Nicole wasn’t throwing shade when she called Luke “weird.” Nicole told Nashville Lifestyles that she could just hang out and be herself with Luke. She didn’t have to wear makeup, and she could also be her “weird self” with him.

“We’re all weird, but we get to choose who to share that side of us with,” she said. Pretty soon after she began to hang out with Luke in Nashville. Nicole shared that she thought to herself, “You know what? This guy’s a keeper.”

Nicole was actually working two jobs when she met Luke. She worked 40 hours a week at BMI – although Nicole has revealed that “you’re not making that much money” as an office employee in the music industry.

She also worked as a bartender on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to earn extra money. Luke did something super-romantic for Nicole: He wrote a song that was inspired by her: “Beautiful crazy.”

Luke confirmed that the lyrics weren’t just corny things he made up. He wrote them based on things that Nicole actually did.

How Nicole Learned “Beautiful Crazy” Was About Her

When Nicole heard the song for the first time, thought the lyrics sounded really familiar, but she didn’t want to ask Luke if the song was about her. She confessed that she was a little bit shy but also admitted it was awesome to learn the song was, in fact, about her.

Luke said writing the song about Nicole earned him “serious brownie points.” It also became a hit and helped Luke gain country music superstardom. But that’s not the only Luke Combs hit written about Nicole.

Luke hasn’t been afraid to tell the real truth about their relationship through his music. He also wrote “Nothing like you” about Nicole.

The moody lyrics tell another side of their love story. Nicole worked overtime at BMI when Luke wrote the song. He was often out of town, touring the country.

Luke said it was hard to be away from Nicole so much, but the bright spot was he knew he was coming back to her. November 14, 2018 was a proud night for Luke. He appeared at the CMAs for the first time, with Nicole by his side – and he won the “New Artist of the Year” award.

Luke and Nicole’s Engagement Story

Soon, Luke and Nicole got engaged. Maybe you saw their engagement pictures taken in Hawaii in November 2018. But as Luke mentioned in his post on social media, he didn’t propose to Nicole in Hawaii.

They’d gotten engaged weeks before, when moving from an apartment in Nashville to their first house outside of town. Nicole had to move their two cats – and the cats did not manage the hour-long car ride too well.

She confessed that she’d never seen her pets so stressed out, which worried her. She was also concerned about her parents flying in the following day for a visit and felt overwhelmed by the things she had to do.

What she didn’t know was that Luke had already called her dad and asked for Nicole’s hand in marriage.

So when they got to their new house late that night, and Nicole had to leave moving boxes everywhere to bathe her stressed-out cats, Luke presented Nicole with new collars for the cats.

The collars had their new address inscribed on them. At the same time, Luke surprised Nicole with her engagement ring. Nicole posted a sincere message on social media about her stunning ring.

“I always said if I was to ever get married, I didn’t want to pick out the ring or go ring shopping,” she said. Nicole wanted her man to see a ring and know it was the one and she confessed that she “never thought a ring could mean so much to her.”

Luke and Nicole got married in southern Florida on August 1, 2020. Although the covid-19 pandemic was a stressful time to plan a wedding, Nicole claims that her pandemic wedding was “cool.”

Even though Nicole and Luke had to un-invite 120 people from their wedding due to pandemic restrictions, they ended up being happy with a small wedding.

The Couple Expanded Their Family

Nicole said it was cool because she and Luke “literally got to talk to everyone that was there and spend time with each of them.” When it came to the couple’s first dance as newlyweds, Luke revealed he was worried that he was being too weird.

He wanted to dance to “Beautiful crazy” – and they did. As Nicole and Luke settled into married life, they added to their family in surprising ways. They adopted a rescue dog named JoJo and also bought chickens for a backyard chicken coop.

Then Luke made a big announcement in January 2022. He posted images on social media and a caption that “lil dude Combs is coming this spring.”

Luke also gave a sweet shout-out to Nicole: “I couldn’t be more excited to start a family with this baby.” Since then, they have had two babies. Their first son, Tex Lawrence, was born on June 19, 2022 and his little brother, Beau Lee, arrived on August 15, 2023.

Nicole is a happy wife and mother, and Luke has always said that when he found Nicole, he “married up.”

Why Everyone Thinks This Isn’t Kate

March 19, 2024

The most recent footage of Kate Middleton was supposed to settle any debate about her whereabouts. But instead, the images have had the opposite effect.

The clip of Kate shopping with her husband Prince William at a local farm stand has only whipped up an even crazier frenzy among conspiracy theorists. In fact, at least one famous face might even have been added to their number.

RELATED: Where is Kate Middleton?

Bravo bigshot and reality TV kingpin Andy Cohen chimed in on Twitter to have his say on the Kate conspiracy. After the footage went online, many doubters made it clear that they didn’t believe that it was authentic. The video was swiftly branded as “fake.”

One critic stated that the Princess’s “ears were different.” Another claimed that Kate had been “replaced.”

The crazy theories about Kate’s whereabouts have been circulating for a few months. The theories started when it was announced that she was having abdominal surgery at the start of the year. However, recently they have gained a lot more traction in the news.

On Monday, Andy had no problem in sharing his own views. He echoed that of the conspiracy theorists, by tweeting out to his legion of followers, “That ain’t Kate.”

That ain’t Kate….
— Andy Cohen (@Andy) March 19, 2024

He was of course far from the only voice to question the video of Kate and William, but his status as a public figure meant that his tweet caught a lot of attention.

Kate Is Supposed to Return to Public Duty in April

Other conspiracy fans started flocking to Andy’s tweet to show support. One Twitter user wrote that Andy was “Literally all of us.” Another commented to say, “I just want to know who they think they are fooling.”

The footage had reportedly been captured by an onlooker from a nearby car, who described the couple as looking “happy”. Prior to the clip’s release, Kate had not been seen in public for around 12 weeks.

The royal family recently revealed that Kate expects to return to public duty by mid-April, according to the Sunday Times. Hugo Vickers, a royal historian, told The Sun that it was “certainly good news to know that she was… up and about”.

However, skeptics have questioned whether someone who needed such a long time to recover from surgery should be out carrying shopping bags. Most people are in agreement that there’s nothing to the conspiracy theories and have not questioned the most recent footage. For those who believe that something else is going on, recent scandals have only eroded their trust in the royal family.

Things reached a low when Kate admitted to editing a photo of her family for Mother’s Day in the UK. She explained that it was something that a lot of amateur photographers do. However, some took this as proof that Kate was not with her kids.

The Sun was told that lately, Kate had been healthy enough to take her children to school. But she will not be ready to take part in official royal business until at least Easter. Until then, it seems like no evidence will be enough to change the minds of Andy or the many others who just don’t believe it’s Kate.

Golden Bachelor- Trouble in Paradise

March 19, 2024

Gerry Turner—TV’s first “Golden Bachelor”—allegedly began the week of March 18th by “slamming” rumors that he and his new wife, Theresa Nist, are getting a divorce. Shockingly, The U.S. Sun even claimed that Gerry “savagely” called one critical “fan” a “Karen.”

Gerry took the opportunity to post recent photos of him and Theresa in the stands at his granddaughter’s volleyball competition. The Sun alleged that Gerry did that to silence the “fans” who doubted that he and Theresa “were still together.”

Theresa and Gerry got hitched on live TV at the beginning of January, and their guests included friends and family members. Gerry’s volleyball-playing grandkid, Charlee Young, and her sister, Payton, were in the wedding party as junior bridesmaids.

The volleyball competition was held in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Sun reported that Gerry posted a “carousel of new photos” on Instagram to show “how proud he was of Charlee,” and maybe prove he was still a married man.

Gerry took live-action pictures of Charlee on the volleyball court and group shots with her teammates. He also shared a photo of himself embracing Theresa and his daughter Angie.

Gerry captioned the photos, “What better way to spend a Saturday than watching your granddaughter play volleyball with Theresa and all the family.” Sounds like a great PR move, Gerry.

Many Viewers Have Been Asking Where Theresa Has Been

The “Golden Bachelor” faced some pretty severe criticism late last year. A shocking article in The Hollywood Reporter made revealing claims about Gerry’s “Not-So-Golden Past.”

Gerry and Theresa’s televised wedding on January 4th was seen as a ratings success. Neilsen data showed that “5.22 million” viewers tuned into “live + same-day” coverage.

But the disbelievers are still bugging Gerry about his “Golden” marriage. The Sun reported that “plenty of viewers” have been leaving comments on Gerry’s social media asking where Theresa is.

On March 1st, Gerry posted a selfie online with Jackie Kawamoto, a professional pickleball player. The Sun described the photo as Gerry and Jackie “smiling while on a pickleball court, and it looked like they had just played an intense game.”

Gerry wrote that playing pickleball with Jackie “was an absolute treat.” He called Jackie a “wonderful person and a great athlete.” Gerry claimed they had “raised a lot of money for a worthwhile charity.”

But Gerry’s fans (critics?) on social media had an issue with his post, including the fan that Gerry called a “Karen” when he blasted her in the comments section. Some fans kept it polite, asking where Theresa was. But the “harsh” comments included putdowns like Theresa had gotten “smart and dumped” Gerry.

Gerry Gave a Commenter a “Grammer” Lesson

Gerry has been accused of being a cheapskate. Critics in the comments section wondered if “Theresa is probably still working” and if Gerry doesn’t want to. Someone claimed that Gerry “don’t want to spend any money.”

The Sun reported that Gerry was “quick to clap back.” Gerry told the critic that she should have written doesn’t, not don’t, as in, “he doesn’t want to spend any money.” He also wrote, “Grammer is so important when communicating, Karen.”

But Gerry didn’t do himself any favors by giving that so-called “Karen” a “grammer” lesson. Another critic quickly wrote that he misspelled the word and should have typed “Grammar.”

Gerry’s critics laughed at his spelling mistake. Someone even replied, “The pot calling the kettle black… he’s such a [clown].”

At least Gerry got some positive responses when he posted the photo carousel from Charlee’s volleyball tournament. One true-blue fan mentioned the “beautiful pic” of Gerry, his wife, and daughter. They added, “What more can u ask for, an enjoyable afternoon with the families.”

Someone else wrote, “Aww, family photo. You and Theresa look so happy.” While another fan claimed they were “so happy for you, your beautiful wife Theresa & all the rest of the family!”

What Happened to Hogan Knows Best

March 19, 2024

Even though Hogan Knows Best went off the air over 15 years ago, Hulk Hogan and his family’s drama and scandals have been non stop. Everything that’s happened in their lives over the years has been so crazy that you’re going to be absolutely shocked…

Hogan Knows Best was a reality show on VH1 that documented the bizarre lives of professional wrestling legend Hulk Hogan and his family. The series ran for four seasons that spanned from 2005 to 2007, before it ended up being canceled.

It turns out that Hulk, whose real name is Terry Bollea, and his family were even more dysfunctional than viewers realized.

Although it was entertaining to watch Hulk, his wife Linda, and their kids Brooke and Nick, I feel like there was a weird tension between them at times.

It really seemed like there were some big issues going on behind the scenes of Hogan Knows Best. But it wasn’t until the fourth and final season aired that those troubles really came to light, and they were honestly unbelievable.

Nick Hogan Went to Jail After Crashing His Car

In 2007, right after the family finished filming the fourth season, Nick was in a very serious car crash. He was only 17 years old, and he had already been issued speeding tickets for going over 100 miles per hour a few times. But I guess Nick still hadn’t realized how risky his extreme speeding was, because his accident was downright horrifying.

Although Nick only had minor injuries from the high-speed crash, his friend who was riding with him wasn’t so lucky… John Graziano had such severe injuries from the accident that he not only suffered brain damage, but his life drastically changed in another way… I can’t believe how tragic this still is…

Unfortunately, John had to spend two years in the hospital, and he will need full-time medical care for the rest of his life. I can’t even imagine how devastating this was and still is for John’s family. And because of the extent of John’s injuries, Nick was in serious trouble. But that’s not all — his charges were about to get way worse.

It turns out, Nick had been under the influence of substances when he crashed his car. That, along with everything else, understandably landed him in jail for five months. I’m sure Nick felt an unimaginable amount of guilt, but it was too late to change anything.

Thankfully, John’s family was able to reach a $5 million settlement with Nick and his family to help cover legal fees and medical bills. But that wasn’t the only strain on Hulk and his family at the time. What happened just weeks after the final episode of Hogan Knows Best aired was completely unexpected.

Hulk Allegedly Cheated With One of Brooke’s Friends

Shockingly, Linda filed for divorce from Hulk in November 2007. According to People magazine, Hulk was totally blindsided, even though he admitted they’d been having problems for ten years. Linda claimed that their marriage of 24 years was broken beyond repair, so I figured that she had a pretty big reason behind her decision to file for divorce.

But when she explained and made some bombshell allegations about Hulk, I was absolutely blown away. Linda accused Hulk of cheating on her, which was obviously terrible in itself. But then she revealed that Hulk actually had an affair with one of their daughter Brooke’s friends.

I don’t think anyone was surprised that Hulk denied the cheating allegation altogether, especially since he claimed the family’s reality show was what caused Linda to file for divorce. But I’m guessing he didn’t expect the woman he allegedly had an affair with, Christiane Plante, to publicly expose him. This was honestly unreal.

Christiane confirmed during an interview with the National Enquirer that she had, in fact, been in a secret relationship with Hulk. I feel like she desperately wanted to either cover her tracks or clear her conscience, but in turn, she made Hulk and Linda’s divorce even messier than it already was. What Christiane revealed was so insane.

Apparently, Christiane didn’t see anything wrong with the secret romance at first. As crazy as it sounds, she claimed that Hulk and Linda both knew their marriage was coming to an end anyway, so she didn’t think the affair was wrong. I can’t even begin to understand how she managed to justify helping her good friend’s dad cheat on his wife.

Allegedly, Christiane regretted her part in the affair once she realized it had destroyed her friendship with Brooke. And speaking of Brooke, she was so furious. She basically outed her dad as a liar in a MySpace post that she quickly deleted, which was extremely incriminating.

Brooke all but confirmed the truth behind the affair rumors by calling out her dad and Christiane for both betraying her. Even though she had been Hulk’s little girl for so long, I have a feeling it took quite a while for her to forgive him.

Hulk and Linda’s Divorce Was an Expensive One

Despite everything that had been exposed about the affair, Hulk STILL denied it in his 2009 autobiography, My Life Outside The Ring. But if there’s one thing that’s certain, it’s that Hulk’s divorce took an unthinkable financial toll on him. The amount of money he lost was honestly enormous.

Linda was the clear winner when it came to finances in the divorce. At the time, Hulk’s net worth was roughly $30 million, but he actually had to sell a lot of his properties just to pay Linda. Once their divorce was finalized in 2009, the details of their settlement were released by E! News.

The way the couple’s money was divided was so astounding, I could barely believe it. Not only did Hulk have to pay Linda $3 million for their property settlement, but she was also awarded a whopping $7.4 million from the couple’s joint investment accounts.

And if that didn’t hurt Hulk’s bank account enough, Linda was also granted 40 percent ownership of his companies and 70 percent of their shared liquid assets. But believe it or not, that still wasn’t everything. Hulk was also ordered to pay for almost $200,000 of Linda’s legal fees because he kept asking for court continuances.

Both Hulk and Linda Dated Much Younger People

I was completely stunned that by the time the couple’s divorce was finalized, Hulk was reportedly left with just $3.9 million. But as startling as the financial matters were, nothing came close to being as weird as what happened next.

Basically right after the divorce was filed, both Hulk and Linda had moved on to new relationships. Hulk started dating Jennifer McDaniel in 2008, and the couple actually got married in 2010. Some people thought it was strange that Jennifer was 21 years younger than Hulk and looked similar to his daughter.

But I don’t think any of that mattered much once Linda’s super controversial relationship was revealed. Linda also started dating someone younger in 2008, but her new boyfriend was only 19 years old.

I get that there isn’t a huge difference when you compare Hulk’s 21-year age gap with his girlfriend to Linda’s nearly 30-year age gap with her boyfriend, Charlie Hill. But the fact that Jennifer was in her 40s was way easier to process than Linda dating a literal teenager.

But as I’m sure you probably expected, Hulk and Linda’s rushed romances didn’t go incredibly smoothly. A few years later, Charlie and Linda surprisingly got engaged. But later that same year, they decided to call it quits.

I was relieved that it seemed like a pretty amicable breakup at first, but that quickly took a turn for the worst. Before long, Charlie accused Linda of doing something absolutely crazy.

Charlie claimed that Linda had taken advantage of him by making him do a lot of physical labor, which allegedly included waxing a boat and digging a creek. He even filed a lawsuit about the issue and tried to get $1.5 million from Linda. I honestly didn’t know what to expect from the legal battle, but then the situation took a really strange twist.

Linda’s lawyer announced that Charlie had signed a confidentiality agreement when he and Linda broke up, which had some odd conditions. Charlie was able to keep his vehicle and $9,000, but he wasn’t allowed to speak about their relationship.

That’s why I really don’t know what Charlie expected by filing his lawsuit against Linda, but I’m guessing it wasn’t anything close to what actually happened. This is seriously bizarre. Linda filed a countersuit against Charlie for violating their agreement, which she astonishingly won.

I wonder if the stressful split with Charlie is why Linda has seemingly stayed single for the last decade. I guess if she has dated anyone else, she’s been able to hide it pretty well at least. In fact, Linda has remained out of the spotlight for the most part, and she seems content to live a peaceful life with her rescue dogs.

Not the same can be said for Hulk, though. He’s had some huge changes in his life even recently, and you’ll never guess what they are.

Hulk Ended Up Remarrying Twice

Hulk was married to Jennifer for over ten years, until he filed for divorce at the end of 2021. Before many people even knew about his second divorce, Hulk had already started dating Sky Daily. I couldn’t help but notice there’s a big difference in Hulk’s new relationship compared to his previous marriages, and it’s definitely not a bad thing.

Sky has kept a much lower profile than Hulk’s exes, and her social media accounts are even private. I’m sure that probably has to do with the fact that she has three kids and wants to keep some parts of her life private. Aside from being a mom, Sky is also a yoga instructor and an accountant.

There’s actually not a whole lot of public details about Sky and Hulk’s relationship, but maybe that’s for the best. After all, he was involved with enough public drama during an insanely scandalous lawsuit a few years ago. Hulk married Sky in late 2023.

Hulk’s privacy was completely violated when a gossip outlet, Gawker, exposed something extremely personal of his. Apparently, the outlet published part of an adult video featuring Hulk and his former friend’s wife. I don’t blame Hulk for filing a lawsuit, but I almost couldn’t believe it when he finally won the case in 2016.

He was awarded $140 million in damages, which more than made up for the money he’d lost to Linda in their divorce. But court victories aren’t the only way Hulk has been bringing in money.

Hulk and Nick Have Been Inseparable

Crazy enough, Hulk has actually been teaming up with Nick a lot lately. Hulk owns a Florida beach shop, where he sells merchandise and co-hosts parties and events with Nick, who also works as a DJ. I guess Nick didn’t totally follow in his dad’s footsteps, but they seem pretty inseparable now.

Other than hosting events and working as a DJ, Nick has kept himself busy over the years in ways you might not expect. Nick has had a few different relationships over the years, but his most recent romance is with Tana Lea, who works in the adult entertainment industry.

Not that long ago, Nick got into an argument online with Tyga over some flirty DMs that the rapper had allegedly sent Tana. I think it’s safe to say that Brooke has managed to avoid drama a little more than the rest of her famous family. You’re never going to believe everything she’s been up to since Hogan Knows Best ended.

Brooke Hogan Ended Up Reinventing Herself

The year after her family’s reality show was canceled, Brooke was given her own spinoff, Brooke Knows Best. The show featured Brooke living apart from her family in Miami, where she and two friends navigated their dreams. But because the spinoff wasn’t as successful as the original series, it only lasted for two seasons.

After that, Brooke continued to pursue her music career, which actually led to a pretty bizarre life change. Brooke now lives in Nashville, Tennessee, partially because she’s still focused on her music career. But as I’m sure you might know already, Brooke didn’t just stick to singing.

She dabbled in acting, and even hosted a modeling show that streamed on Amazon Prime. Brooke also stepped into the wrestling world just like her dad, who by the way, she did end up forgiving for having an affair with her friend.

But her newest business venture is one of her most exciting life updates, and it’s definitely not something that I would have predicted.

Brooke owns BB Designs by Brooke, which is a Nashville-based company specializing in interior design and home improvements. It heavily focuses on renovating AirBnB rentals, and Brooke’s longtime friend Ashley Menendez helps with the business management.

I feel like Brooke has made it clear that she can basically work in any profession at this point, but she hasn’t had the same luck in her dating life. This is honestly kind of crazy. Ever since Brooke and football player Phil Costa ended their engagement in 2013, she’s kept her love life pretty private.

It’s hard to say if she’s had any serious relationships since then, because she’s seemingly so focused on the rest of her life. Even though some members of Brooke’s family have stayed more private than others, one thing is clear. They’ve all managed to stay busy in different ways ever since Hogan Knows Best ended.

Valerie Bertinelli finds love again

March 18, 2024

According to a report from USA Today, Valerie Bertinelli is dating again. During an interview for her latest cookbook, Indulge, she also mentioned that she had met someone.

She said that the relationship she had with this unnamed man was different from all the relationships she’d experienced with men in the past. She didn’t want to go into too much detail, however, and left things vague.

Valerie confirmed that she felt blessed and lucky to be dating this man. She also admitted that she hadn’t been looking to date at the time. She was happy just living alone with her cats and dog.

However, when this man came into her life, she was completely surprised by him. That said, she’s grateful they did meet.

Earlier in March, Valerie re-posted an old video that had previously been on her Instagram Stories. The old video showed her answering a question if she’d ever date again. She quickly responded no.

In the re-post, Valerie added a comment saying that the old video didn’t age well. The joke refers to her current relationship, which she says has made her very happy.

Tom and Valerie Separated for Irreconcilable Differences

Before her new relationship, Valerie was with Tom Vitale. They were married for 11 years but divorced in 2022.

The couple first met in 2004 and were introduced by Valerie’s brother. Valerie, who was also married to Eddie Van Halen before he passed away from cancer, was looking to leave Eddie at the time.

Tom claimed to People Magazine that it wasn’t love at first. Instead, they fell in love with each other’s families because they were so similar.

They dated for six years before Tom eventually asked Valerie to marry him in Florence, Italy. Tom was scared during the proposal, but Valerie was eager to marry him. The couple ended up having a pre-honeymoon by taking a vacation in Italy again that lasted three weeks.

In 2011, they finally married in California with a ceremony of 100 guests. Following what seemed like a decade of good memories, in 2021, Valerie filed for separation from Tom.

She cited ‘irreconcilable differences’ as the reason. Six months later, she moved from separation to divorce, filing for it in May 2022.

One of the reasons some people thought Valerie divorced Tom was because she still had feelings for Eddie. He had passed away from cancer in 2020. She and their son, Wolfgang, had been present at his bed when he passed.

In her memoir, Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I am Today, Valerie said that the last words they all said to each other was ‘I love you.’ She also called Eddie her soulmate and said she’d always love him.

Because of her ongoing love for Eddie, some fans wondered if his passing had anything to do with her divorce from Tom. She set the record straight by saying she divorced Tom because they grew apart.

Valerie Took Time to Work on Herself

The divorce wasn’t easy for Valerie, however. In June 2022, Tom put in a challenge against the pre-marital agreement he had made with Valerie.

He didn’t want to pay Valerie spousal support. Tom also requested that Valerie pay him $50,000 in monthly spousal support as well as $200,000 in legal fees.

For some time, Valerie insisted she didn’t want to date or marry again. She said at the time that she was happy to live alone because divorce sucks.

Another reason was that she had problems trusting people after what happened with the divorce. She couldn’t see herself letting anyone in and needed to work on her trust issues first. The divorce was finalized on November 22, 2022.

Even though Valerie had a rough divorce from Tom, she seems happy with her current, mysterious boyfriend. That said, she also advised people that they needed to work on themselves before finding great relationships.

The one thing she wanted men and women to take away was that the work you do on yourself can lead to meeting someone special. Valerie was sure things wouldn’t have worked out four or three years ago. Even a year ago, she still wasn’t giving herself the love and healing she needed.

Now that she had helped heal herself and worked on herself, she was in the right place emotionally and mentally to make a connection with someone special. Time will tell who Valerie’s mysterious new boyfriend is.

Angelina and Fiance Update

March 18, 2024

Angelina from Jersey Shore and her fiance Vinny Tortorella have been engaged for over a year now. They announced their engagement back in April 2023. But since then, there have been several different times when their relationship seemed to be struggling.

The latest update we have received from the two of them was a couple of months ago, around Valentine’s Day 2024. On the 15th of February, Angelina posted a photo of the gifts she received from Vinny on her Instagram story. Based on the picture, she received flowers and a Valentine’s Day card.

She added a text to the story, saying: “Beautiful flowers from my wonderful, loving, helpful, thoughtful, selfless, supportive fiancé.” She also wished Vinny a happy Valentine’s Day and specified that it was the third one they were spending together.

As for Vinny, Angelina’s Instagram story also showed the message he wrote on the card. He also wished Angelina a happy third Valentine’s Day together. He also called her the love of his life and his best friend.

Vinny added: “Let’s spend the rest of our life together with tons of love together as one.” So it’s safe to say that the two of them were still together as of Valentine’s Day. Angelina confirmed this by adding hashtags saying, “We are fine” and “Don’t believe the hype” to her story.

Jersey Shore: Family Vacation Told a Very Different Story

However, that same day, a new episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation aired. Their relationship on the show looks very different from Angelina’s Instagram story.

In the episode that aired on February 15th, Angelina was talking to Mike The Situation and his wife Lauren about her concerns regarding her relationship with Vinny. Among other things, she said that Vinny hadn’t been home for weeks, and she was worried he didn’t want to spend time with her anymore.

Lauren even asked her if she and Vinny had broken up. Angelina actually didn’t have a straight answer to that question.

She said to Lauren: “He said he wants to work it out but he’s never home.” Then she described more issues in their relationship that had to do with money.

It is important to note that although the episode aired on February 15th. This conversation would have occurred months before that, when the episode was filmed.

This wasn’t the only concerning situation involving Angelina and Vinny’s relationship in the second half of 2023. In early August, it was reported by Page Six that Angelina called the police to her home after a domestic incident that happened between her and Vinny.

It was never specified what exactly happened that night. The nature of the incident is not publicly known to this day.

According to Page Six, Angelina ultimately decided she wouldn’t press charges against Vinny for whatever happened between them. After talking with the police, she decided to let the matter go.

However, she and Vinny’s attorneys released statements about the incident. Page six reported on both of them. There were a couple of points that these statements agreed on.

Angelina Said That Things Haven’t Been Great for the Couple

Angelina’s attorney confirmed that Angelina did in fact call the police to her home. Both her and Vinny’s attorney also confirmed that there were no charges filed after the incident.

Vinny’s attorney added that Angelina and Vinny are still engaged and living together. He also said: “Mr. Tortorella denies any act of impropriety that would warrant police involvement and denies any act of DV occurred.” Both of the attorneys also asked everyone to respect each of their clients’ privacy.

But in December, Angelina opened up about her and Vinny’s relationship in an interview with InTouch at iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball. She explained that things haven’t been going great. Angelina said that she and Vinny had been fighting a lot lately.

She told In Touch that she wasn’t receiving the support she needed from Vinny. She explained that her dog, Peanut, was not doing very well, health-wise and that it had been pretty hard on her since Peanut is really important to her.

Despite that, she said Vinny wasn’t helping her take care of Peanut. She said she asked him to watch her dog while she was away, attending the Jingle Ball, and he refused to help.

Angelina also opened the conversation about having kids. At the moment, she doesn’t have any kids.

But she said: “I’m not a mother of human children. But I want human babies.” She added that she didn’t want to have kids with someone who always argues with her. Especially when, according to her, the arguments tend to be about things that don’t actually matter.

But it’s worth noting that this interview happened a couple of months before Angelina posted her Valentine’s Day Instagram story. Based on that, she and Vinny seem to be going strong.
