I Do, Part 2

It didn’t seem possible earlier in the week, after a contentious back and forth between Buckingham Palace and Prince Harry over whether the Prince was invited to overnight at the Palace while he was in London.  Despite the public ugliness of that dispute, and the fact that Harry was denied security for his family while in the UK, somehow a reunion was arranged for the estranged family.&...

It’s always a heartwarming and emotional day at the villa when family members show up for the islanders to give them support, love, and some insight into their newly formed relationships. While Bryce’s grandma stole the show, adding a little sass and humor to the reunion, it was Sincere’s Dad who added the spice. He came in hot, along with Melanie’s sister, to let Sincere k...

No one really thinks about what life will be like when their spouse passes away. …But what about when your husband is in the funeral business, and he passes away?!   Jennie Garth chats with author Dee Branch Oliver about her book “The Undertaker’s Wife,” her grief process, and how she found love again in her chapter two.    Plus, Dee explains why it’s...

While the girls went off to play at a Fiji waterpark, the boys at the villa went to work setting up a scavenger hunt for K.C. to ask a very important question to Titi.  Sure, it looked like the ladies had a blast, but there was growing tension between Kayda and Trinity:  a heated back and forth played out throughout the episode on how to exactly define Zach and Kayda’s relationship...

We were all so hopeful that finally Prince Harry, Meghan and grandchildren Archie and Lilibet might have a royal reunion with King Charles and family at Buckingham Palace this week. Harry’s camp made the announcement that an invitation had been extended, but shortly afterward, the Palace announced that the Duke of Sussex didn’t respond in time to make the necessary staffing accommodati...

The villa was an emotional wreck after the bottom two couples tried to unpack how and why they ended up being voted least compatible. While Zach and Kenzie looked internally as to what they may have done to irk America, their partners started pointing the finger at others.  Kayda was outraged that K.C. and Titi, and Carl and Aniya were in the top 4, given their history and the fact that she a...

It was all going so well. Perhaps the most entertaining, heart warming and fun episode culminated with a stunner of an ending. We thought we knew who was going home after America voted for their most compatible couple… but the karaoke challenge created an unexpected outcome. Once Kenzie and Dylan were voted king and queen, they were granted immunity, and escaped elimination. That left a dif...

Women are posting their “divorce glow ups” online and it’s become quite the viral trend. You see their before and after photos with captions like “me as a wife” and then swipe to see “me as an ex-wife” and the transformations are significant. Women look fitter, sexier and yes, happier post divorce, but the experts say it’s not cosmetic surgeries or i...

Once again, the islanders are prompting non-stop conversations in our house, and after last night’s episode, a big topic was girl code. When Amora threw Jen under the bus, telling Gal that Jen was trash talking him in the dressing room, the girls on our couch were outraged about her major girl code violation. We can talk sh*t about each other to each other, but you do not go outside your gen...

After watching last night’s episode, we had a full discussion of why women would benefit from a heterosexual man in their friend group, and Corbin proved why. We talk about how women validate each other’s feelings and that might not always be helpful when you’re dealing with a toxic relationship like Melanie and Sincere’s. T.J. goes over what he would tell Melanie and why C...

And then there were 14. Seven couples remain in the villa now, and frankly it was a relief to see who was ultimately voted out and the process was entertaining as hell. First, Jen was left without a partner because Gal chose Amora. But how that all went down didn’t sit well with Jen or us, and to see Gal and Amora voted off an hour later was sweet revenge. Poor Caleb, but he had his shot and...

The doors are officially open and wedding guests are beginning to arrive at Madison Square Garden for the wedding of the century! Taylor and Travis are “going to the Garden” and so are 1000 other guests, including some music legends who are set to perform with her after the two say I Do on the arena floor! We have all the latest details, as the festivities are officially underway.&nbsp...

Sooooo many lessons learned after the islanders were forced to watch some of their bad behavior displayed for the world to see. It was painful to watch, sure, but that discomfort led to some epiphanies for several cast members, most notably K.C. The conversation prompted by Aniya’s apology to him after movie night was over, was actually a beautiful moment to watch. K.C. is back and Aniya con...

We are learning more about the couple who seemingly got engaged on the needle of the Empire State Building this week in New York City. Authorities have charged Angela Nikolau and Ivan Beerkus with multiple felonies, including reckless endangerment and burglary after learning they spent the night in the iconic tower and brought tools with them to break locks to gain access to the needle. The two le...

Bachelor Nation favorites Joan Vassos, Kathy Swarts, and Michael Allio are all members of the club no one wants to be in - they’ve all lost a spouse.    The three discuss processing grief, balancing parenthood with loss, and finding love in chapter two.   Plus, we hear about Michael’s new children’s book, Where The Wild Heart Grows , and its powerful message! &nbsp...

Starting tonight, the festivities begin for the biggest wedding in recent American history… or so we’re told. While there has been no official confirmation from either the Grammy winning pop star or her Super Bowl winning groom, every single news organization in the country has been camped outside the world’s most famous arena trying to put all the pieces of this matrimonial puz...

It was a remarkable spectacle here in New York City this afternoon! A well known daredevil duo scaled the needle of the Empire State Building from the Observation Deck to first unfurl a banner about love…. And then, he put a ring on it. 32-year-old Ivan Beerkus proposed to his girlfriend 33-year-old Angela Nikolau as police and news helicopters surrounded the couple celebrating 1454 feet ab...

It was an emotionally charged day and night at the Villa. Episode 25 begins with Dylan inexplicably incapable of controlling his emotions after learning Kenzie kissed Gal. It’s been less than a week and he’s crying? A LOT of folks aren’t buying it, including T.J. but that was just the beginning of the drama, as movie night part one played out and things quickly unraveled as K.C.,...

TMZ is reporting that another woman obtained a restraining order against “Titi” whose legal name is Tierra Davis, back in 2018.  The allegations are that Titi threatened to assault and even shoot this woman over an ex-boyfriend.  While court records show the restraining order was granted, it was later dismissed.  The question becomes, now that Titi is playing a significa...

What an epic episode for all of us who love love! Who didn’t get swept up in feelings when Bryce and Trinity officially became boyfriend, girlfriend on a catamaran in the waters off of Fiji? It was the absolute highlight of Season 8 so far, with Trinity telling Zach she’s finally stolen his man.  But with the good, comes the bad. Several relationships are spiraling and some, may b...

Casa Amor bombshell Alannah Keyser issued an on-camera apology after being kicked out of the villa for a newly resurfaced video showing her singing the N word. Her apology is actually a lesson in how not to apologize. Keyser used the old “it was never my intention” and “if you were offended” lines coupled with a vague denial of screen shots showing her using the n-word. Her...

What started off as a cute story line, the budding bromance between Zach and Bryce, has now become downright confusing. Each episode, the two get more and more physical with one another, even simulating sex. Zach has dry humped Bryce on more than one occasion,  Bryce has shown Zach his penis; they’ve shared lounge chairs and even held hands at one point.  In the most recent episode...

What a gutting way to open the episode, showing Aniya on the ground sobbing over KC, Melanie by her side, while the Casa Amor ladies laugh and scoff at Aniya’s emotional reaction. Thankfully, and surprisingly, throughout the episode we see the Villa girls and the Casa Amor girls actually put aside their differences and apologize for bad behavior. But things got sticky literally and figurativ...

A new dating trend is taking over TikTok and before you roll your eyes, dating experts say it’s actually a cry for help. This idea that women will only accept the physically perfect man: six feet, six figures, six pack and six inches, is pure fantasy. And it’s not fantasy versus reality, it’s fantasy versus intimacy and that equals loneliness. It may even be considered a form of...
