“I’m going to be honest, I have not watched three episodes now,” Kyle, 56, admitted during her Amazon Live on Tuesday, January 21. “It’s not good for my anxiety, and it’s been really frustrating and hard to watch when I felt like every time I went into the group, I was ambushed.”
Kyle said that “right out of the gate” she was dealing with feuds — referring to the ongoing tension with Dorit Kemsley on the show.
“I started feeling like even people who I thought were my friends, I had to question, and I was honestly depressed at that time,” Kyle continued. “I wasn’t used to being depressed, and I probably should’ve taken the season off, to be honest, but I didn’t.”
The Bravo star said she was “not equipped” to deal with feeling like she was being “ambushed” when walking settings for the show.
Kyle’s livestream on Tuesday came hours before this week’s RHOBH episode, which showed her having a breakdown and walking off set during a gathering with all the women.

“I’m not going to be made to feel like I’ve done something wrong,” Kyle said through tears during the episode, directing her ire toward Dorit. “I’ve loved you and your family. F— everybody, I’m done with this s—. I’m not doing this anymore.”
Kyle’s anger came after she was asked, once again, to read a specific text message that she previously sent to Dorit’s estranged husband, PK Kemsley.
“I know you have a lot of friends but I am also one and here if you need me. I’ve never repeated anything you have ever shared with me and never would. (Meaning you can trust me always),” the message read. “Will keep sending memes and won’t forget laughing emojis.”
During Tuesday’s episode, Kyle claimed that certain parts of the message (namely the “I’ve never repeated anything” line) was not about Dorit.
“I’m not proud of how I handled [walking off set], but I don’t regret walking out because I was not capable of dealing with that in my life at that point,” Kyle said during Tuesday’s livestream. “I honestly was at a breaking point, and that was it. When you’re going through a lot in your life, you go and you hang out with your friends to feel better.”
She continued, “Our lives are being followed so it’s a different circumstance. I get that, but I still thought I would feel supported in some way and I was just hurt.”
Julia Fox has eccentric fashion in the bag, making conversation-starting carries her signature — from human hair-covered party clutches to human body-bag purses and beyond.
Fox, 34, debuted her latest can’t-look-away accoutrement on the Tuesday, January 21, episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers, where she literally glided onto the stage in a pair of rare Dsquared2 ice-skates-slash-booties. ”These are iconic,” she told Meyers, 51, matter of factly.
But that was far from the slickest accessory of the night, as she was armed with a Chopova Lowen tote with an actual mayonnaise bottle styled like a bag charm and buckled to the front of the studded design — right next to a single Victorian sterling silver spoon for added campy, convenient appeal.
“What a fantastic look! Thank you for sharing it with us. Do you want to talk about it?” Meyers asked while seemingly already knowing Fox’s answer, which was, “I do want to talk about it.”
The Uncut Gems actress continued: “I feel like in the last couple years, mayonnaise has really gotten a bad rep. And, you know, I’m on to really stand up for the underdogs.”
Debuting at London Fashion Week in November 2024, the Margaret bag is named after Margaret Hellmann, co-founder of condiment brand Hellman’s, and is bedecked with various mayo-related accessories. The collaborative design set out to take the “polarzing” condiment “beyond the fridge,” as Dezeen reported at the time.
Fox held up her condiment-adorned carrier for the audience to see. “So, mayo is coming back for 2025. Tell your friends, everybody!” she declared, eliciting hoots and hollers from the crowd.
She also caused a stir with her similarly wacky wardrobe, which consisted of a piped collared blue bodysuit reassembling an ice-skater’s uniform topped with a gargantuan white shaggy fur coat.
Fox’s glam was just as eye-catching, as she sported bottle-dyed platinum coif chopped short, plus bleached blonde arches dusted with frosted eye shadow, metallic highlighter and a powdered-to-perfection complexion that completed the wintry beauty vibes.
Fox was there to discuss her role in the newly released spectral thriller Presence, where she plays a New Jersey real estate broker. She insisted that, like her character, Cece, she’s “a down to earth girl” who loves the egg-based condiment as much as the next person. “I eat these dry sandwiches,” she joked. “It’s like, I want my mayo, OK!” Meyers quipped, “You’re not fancy aioli.” Fox added, “Exactly!”
Whether it’s her latest horror film or scary-cool handbag, whatever she’s selling, Fox’s fans are buying.

Julia Haart’s eldest daughter, Batsheva, is cheering for her mom after a victory in her divorce from Silvio Scaglia.
“Celebrating my moms [sic] win in her divorce case!” Batsheva, 31, shared via TikTok on Tuesday, January 21, captioning the post, “She wonnnnnn @juliahaart finally getting her freedom.”
In the clip, Haart, 53 and her loved ones sing and dance to DJ Khaled’s “All I Do Is Win” inside an apartment. At the end of the video, Haart and her daughter — who is holding a glass of champagne — sweetly embrace.
“Everybody gets champagne!” Batsheva said while grabbing glasses from the table.
Before the ruling, the My Unorthodox Life star was surprised by Batsheva in court. (Haart shares Batsheva, Shlomo, 29, Miriam, 24, and Aron, 18, with ex-husband Yosef Hendler.)
“For the past 3 years my mom has been fighting for her life to prove her truth. She is the most inspiring woman in my life because no matter how dark her life got she didn’t give up,” Batsheva wrote in the joint Instagram post with Haart. “She is a true fighter for freedom and I am so blessed to call her my mom. I love you so much @juliahaart.”
Us Weekly confirmed on Tuesday, January 21, that Haart received 50 percent interest in Freedom Holding — the company that owns the exes’ business Elite World Models agency. She was also awarded power of attorney over Scaglia’s 50 percent.
The judge also ruled that Haart could receive $7.4 million in unpaid management fees from 2019 to 2021 and half the proceeds of a Kees Van Dongen painting owned by Freedom Holding that Scalgia sold for nearly $3 million. Haart also won half the cash withdrawals that Silvio made from their businesses since their divorce began.
Haart also claimed to have reinstated herself as the interim CEO while she searched for someone to fulfill the gig. Haart shared in a statement that “justice was served.”
Page Six further reported on Tuesday that Haart also received the exes’ $65 million apartment and nearly $10 million in cash.
Haart’s lawyer, Michael Beyda of Chemtob, Moss, Forman and Beyda, also released a statement: “Julia Haart has faced immense challenges over the past three years, yet her resilience and commitment to her values have been unwavering. This victory is a testament to the power of staying true to oneself and refusing to stoop to the level of opposition. We are deeply grateful to Judge Pearlman for holding Mr. Scaglia accountable for his actions and inactions.”
Haart’s legal battle with Scaglia began in February 2022 when Us confirmed that she filed for divorce two years after the pair said “I do.” While they were married, Haart was named the CEO of Scaglia’s model and talent agency, Elite World Group.
After news broke that Haart and Scaglia split, she was fired and claimed to be “completely blindsided” by his actions. One day after the filing and her exit from the company, Haart was accused of making an “illegal withdrawal” from the EWG bank account. Page Six went on to report that Haart filed a petition for a restraining order against Scaglia, alleging that he became “increasingly volatile, abusive and unhinged.”
In March 2022, Us exclusively confirmed that Scaglia filed a complaint against Haart and claimed she stole a $401,500 Bentley that was owned by EWG. Three months later, Haart filed a lawsuit alleging that Scaglia withdrew $1.5 million from the account holding her CEO salary. In December 2022, Scaglia dropped the lawsuits filed against Haart.
Among Swift’s nods is one for Favorite Surprise Guest. In the new show category, Swift, 35, was recognized for enlisting Kelce, also 35, for a special moment during her June 2024 concert in London.
The couple, who have been together since 2023, is up against the likes of Charli XCX and Lorde, Coldplay and Selena Gomez, Jennifer Hudson and Cher and Luke Combs and the Twisters cast, among others for their respective stage collaborations in 2024.
Kelce is a double honoree in the category, also receiving recognition for his and Kansas City Chiefs teammate Patrick Mahomes’ walk-on roles during Morgan Wallen’s August 2024 show in Missouri.
Kelce and Mahomes, 29, had accompanied Wallen, 31, from his greenroom to the stage at Arrowhead Stadium during his One Night at a Time concert tour. Two months earlier, the tight end joined Swift on stage in London.
During Swift’s third of eight performances at Wembley Stadium, Kelce joined dancers Kam Saunders and Jan Ravnik for the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” pantomime segment. Dressed in matching tuxedos and top hats, the three men were tasked with “reviving” Swift after she “dies” during “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.” Kelce carried his girlfriend across the catwalk before fake-applying blush to her cheeks.

“It’s very unlike me. I’m not big, I don’t like going on stages. There were a lot of people out there, really didn’t feel at home,” Kelce later said during an episode of his “New Heights” podcast. “I initially mentioned to Tay, I was like, ‘How funny would it be if I just rolled out on one of the bikes during the 1989 [section]?’ She started laughing, she was like, ‘Would you seriously be up for doing something like that?’ I was like, ‘What? I would love to do that, are you kidding me?’”
He added, “I’ve seen the show enough, might as well put me to work here. And sure enough, she found the perfect part of the show for me to come in. There was no, like, bike in case I ran into somebody else or hit one of the dancers or anything. It was, like, the safest option.”
Kelce was able to attend over a dozen of Swift’s Eras shows since they started dating, telling Us Weekly in May 2024 that the performances were “unbelievable.”
Swift wrapped her two-year Eras Tour runin December 2024, which Kelce honored by organizing a surprise “End of an Era” party that same month. He sported his stage costume for the occasion, top hat, makeup brush and all.
Swift’s Eras Tour also earned iHeartRadio Music Awards nominations for Favorite Tour Style, Favorite Tour Tradition and Favorite On Screen. In addition, she was recognized in the Artist of the Year, Pop Artist of the Year, Best Collaboration, Best Music Video and Best Lyrics categories.
The iHeartRadio Music Awards air Monday, March 17, on Fox.
“The last time I talked to her [was] like a year ago. When [Luke Broderick and I] had our pregnancy loss, she was texting me pretty often and being very loving,” Doute, 41, who is currently expecting a baby with Broderick, 33, told Alex Baskin on the Tuesday, January 21, episode of his “Bravo’s Hot Mic” podcast. “It was the way I think she just naturally is, especially because we were in each other’s lives and were very close for so long.”
The former costars interacted once more after that. “Since then — as of today — we haven’t spoken since her anniversary [with husband Beau Clark],” Doute added. “I texted her and she was like, ‘Oh, you introduced us.'”
Doute clarified there is “no hate” between her and Schroeder, 36.
“It’s just how people grow apart,” she added. “She has two kids and a huge taxing career that keeps her very busy. She has a husband and she has a different group of friends.”

Doute and Schroeder were original cast members on Vanderpump Rules when it debuted in 2013. They were both fired in June 2020 due to past racially insensitive behavior toward former costar Faith Stowers. Doute broke her silence on the scandal one month later.
“I think the biggest thing that I’ve learned is that I have so much to learn,” she said on the “Hollywood Raw” podcast in July 2020. “I know that’s super cliché and a lot of people say that, but it’s absolutely true, because I think that I thought that I understood racism, but now I’m really learning about unconscious bias. Learning about anti-racism. Learning about how we can do things locally to really truly make changes and putting work into your community locally to make those changes I think [are] so important.”
Schroeder later addressed the “huge” mistakes that led to her departure from Bravo. “Just imagine making a terrible mistake, but one that has nothing to do with how good you are at your job. And one that doesn’t truly reflect who you are,” she wrote in her 2022 memoir, Off With My Head. “You’re told to stay quiet. You’re already ashamed of the mistake you made. You already want to fix it. But on top of that, every single person you know or have ever met knows about this mistake.”
Doute has since made her reality TV return with The Valley, which premiered in 2024 and also stars VPR alums Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright. Schroeder will also be back on TV soon after reuniting with Lisa Vanderpump for season 2 of Vanderpump Villa. Schroeder additionally signed a larger deal with Hulu that includes her own show, Stassi Says. The half-hour docu-comedy is currently in development.

Amid their individual success, Doute revealed in October 2024 that she didn’t hear from Schroeder after getting engaged to Broderick.
“I have not heard from Stassi,” she shared on her “Balancing Act” podcast. “I think the last time I heard from Stassi would have been on her anniversary when I wished her a happy anniversary and we exchanged some kind words. That’s kind of it.”
Doute continued: “I’m OK with that. I have a lot of love for her and for her family. I’ve said that a million times. That’s never going to change for me. We have a lot of history and she used to be like a sister to me.”
While reflecting on their bond, Doute noted that their situation has since changed, adding, “I just wish her the best. Sometimes friendships don’t last. That’s it. People just grow apart.”
Doute elaborated on Tuesday about which former costars she’s in contact with.
“Katie Maloney, I’m still close to. Are we best friends the way that we were? No. We are in very different places in our lives,” she continued. “It’s kind of the same thing. I am closer with Katie, but it is OK for people to just grow apart without there being some big dramatic break up — strangely enough.”
Kirk Herbstreit revealed the personal reason his emotions overflowed during the broadcast of the College Football Playoff National Championship.
Herbstreit, 55, was seen wiping away tears after the Monday, January 20 game between his alma mater Ohio State and Notre Dame, which saw the Buckeyes defeat the Fighting Irish 34-23.
“I haven’t really talked about this publicly, but Ali, my wife, faced some stuff,” Herbsteit said on ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday, January 21. “It’s been a tough year for me behind the scenes. My wife got diagnosed with breast cancer.”
Kirk and Ali got married in June 1998 and the couple share four sons: twins Tye and Jake, 24, Zak, 22, and Chase, 18.

“Ben dies, it was just a lot of emotion,” Herbstreit continued. “And when you’re doing what we do, you endure. You know, you do your job. And I think what happened — I couldn’t predict it, but when they won, I was so happy for [Ohio State head coach] Ryan Day and those players that I just talked about, because of what they faced and all the stuff behind the scenes. It was almost like, I don’t know, maybe a release of all that pent up stuff. It just got the best of me.”
Herbstreit’s son Zak was a senior tight end on the Ohio State roster. In June 2023, Zak spent five days in the hospital due to a heart condition. While Zak did not see any game action this season, he was a vital part of the team’s day-to-day activities.
“My son had heart failure two years ago,” Kirk told McAfee, 37. “They were talking about a heart replacement there for a while, and he had to medically retire. The gratitude I have for Ryan Day putting his arms around Zak and keeping him involved. You know, he’s almost like a [graduate assistant] with what he was doing.”
Kirk added, “So there was that side of it, looking down and seeing him in his jersey after, you know, potentially facing replacing your heart to that.”
Ultimately, Kirk said his emotional on-air moment was “not something you think about or predict. It’s just like a perfect storm for me.”
After the National Championship, Kirk posted a candid moment via Instagram between him and Zak in the bowels of Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
“Love you Zak! Congratulations,” Kirk wrote alongside a picture of the father and son embracing. “What a special night!”
“It’s breakup season,” DeSorbo, 32, declared on the Tuesday, January 21, episode of the “Giggly Squad” podcast after her cohost Hannah Berner mentioned Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson’s breakup. “So is Jessica Alba [and Cash Warren]. So is Kaia Gerber [and Austin Butler],” she said, while Berner, 33, also mentioned Bachelor Nation’s Rachael Kirkconnell and Matt James.
“Something’s in the air and women are like, ‘Hey, you know what? No,’” DeSorbo noted.
Though Berner has been married to comedian Des Bishop since 2022, she said that she’s been “loving this breakup season.” She explained, “The girls, they’re like, ‘It’s winter, and I actually just want to watch murder documentaries and fart on my own. And I don’t need someone to cuddle with.’ Cuddling? Overrated. Like, summer is fun. You’re hooking up. You’re tan. You’re making out with guys. Winter — don’t f—ing touch me.”
DeSorbo agreed with Berner’s comments, hinting that she’s been enjoying the single life so far. “I want to be wrapped in my sweatpants in a fur blanket with my fuzzy socks. And if you’re also under my same blanket, I’m going to get hot. And I don’t want to get hot,” she stated. “You know, like I have the perfect temperature right now. Get your fricking sweaty balls away from me.”
Less than one month after Conover denied breakup rumors, DeSorbo confirmed that she and her fellow Bravo star had called it quits after three years of dating. “Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” she shared on the December 30, 2024, episode of the “Giggly Squad” podcast. “I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends.”

Despite calling Conover “one of the best people I’ve met in my entire life,” the Bravostar said the split was “the right decision for [the] both of us.”
Conover broke his silence on the breakup in a January 7 Instagram Story statement, writing, “[It happened] right before the holidays. I was very shocked. And it’s OK. It takes two people to be in a relationship and you can’t control other people, you can only control how you react to it. Remember to be kind to Paige and me and yourselves and all of that good stuff.”

One day after their breakup news broke, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Conover was “really pushing for the next steps and wanted to settle down with her,” but being long distance made things difficult. “Paige does not want to move to Charleston, and logistically it was never going to work out long term,” the insider said of DeSorbo, who resides in New York City. “Many of their friends are not shocked at all, but everyone is sad for them.”
Since the split, DeSorbo has said she “died laughing” after rumors spread online that she cheated on Conover with Saturday Night Live star Marcello Hernandez. “I just texted him. I was like, ‘Hey, just want to let you know, there was a rumor going around that I cheated on my boyfriend with you,’ and he was just like, ‘F— yeah,’” she said on the January 7 episode of her and Berner’s podcast. “I was like, ‘Marcello, I’m so f—ing sorry. This is so embarrassing.’ And no one involved was defending me, which I found interesting.”
