Nikki DeLoach is ready to make some more special memories with her Hallmark family.

“I actually have a movie coming out,” DeLoach, 45, exclusively shared with Us Weekly earlier this month at the Children’s Heart Foundation’s Congenital Heart Walk in Los Angeles. “I’m doing a movie called Home Turf that comes out in the fall. I filmed it in Utah and wrapped it about a month ago. It’s great.”

According to DeLoach, the upcoming TV movie has everything fans expect from Hallmark films, including love and laughs.

“It’s football, it’s romance, it’s college campuses, it’s multi-generational, it’s funny,” she teased. “Warren Christie is my costar again. We’ve been reunited from Christmas. And I gotta tell you, I have not had this much fun on a set in a really long time. I am so excited about this movie!”

A Guide to Hallmark Channel’s Leading Ladies

DeLoach and Christie, 49, last starred together in Our Holiday Story. The film, which premiered in November 2024, showcased a couple who recounted their Christmas love story to their daughter’s boyfriend.

It’s one of the many Hallmark projects DeLoach has been a part of over the years.

While every film has its own special set of memories, the actress said Five More Minutes and a Gift of Peace — two movies that explored grief and healing — hold special meaning to her and many viewers.

“I always say I am our audience,” she explained to Us. “I’m that mom that has spent months and months and months in a Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit looking for hope. I am a daughter who was a caregiver to her dad with dementia. I have watched my dad take his last breath. I am our audience, and I’m always looking for that thing that is hopeful, and it’s going to make me feel like in the end, everything’s going to be OK.”

DeLoach continued, “I know what our movies give people because when I’m in them, they give me the same thing. … I think it’s just such a gift and a blessing to be a part of people’s lives in that way.”

When she’s not in front of a camera providing both entertainment and comfort to fans, DeLoach is using her platform to raise awareness about congenital heart defects.

According to the Children’s Heart Foundation, congenital heart defects are America’s most common and deadly birth defect, with nearly 40,000 babies born with a CHD each year in the United States.

“My son Bennett is a heart warrior, and he was born almost eight years ago,” DeLoach shared with Us. “He had four congenital heart defects and without immediate intervention, he was not going to survive. At five days old, Dr. Vaughn Starnes at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles — one of the world’s top pediatric heart surgeons — saved his life.”

After two additional heart surgeries, Bennett is now thriving in life as he enjoys piano, soccer and other activities with his peers.

Looking towards the future, DeLoach hopes she can use her family’s story to push for more heart checks at hospitals when babies are born.

“I hope by the time I take my last breath in this world that it will just be a part of the screening of every newborn,” she said. “When they are born, they get their ears checked, their eyes checked, everything else and their hearts. It sounds like a no-brainer to me.”

90 Day Fiancé’s Colt Johnson continues to keep his distance from estranged wife Vanessa Guerra.

“We’re divorced or working on it, but yeah, we’re not really talking,” Colt, 39, exclusively told Us Weekly at Us’ 90 Days: Hunt For Love party on Monday, May 19. “We’re not communicating. It makes me sad, but things happen I guess.”

Colt’s relationship with Vanessa, 35, was first introduced on season 5 of 90 Day: Happily Ever After? in June 2020. At the time, he was in a relationship with Jess Caroline and claimed Vanessa was just a “best friend.”

During the show’s tell-all episode, however, Colt admitted to getting romantic with Vanessa during his relationship with Jess.

‘90 Day: Hunt for Love’ Sneak Peek Has Rob Finding ‘Love at First Sight’

This summer, Colt is trying to leave any drama in the past and receive a second chance at love when he competes on 90 Days: Hunt for Love.

“I’m recently divorced, so I really just wanted to try something new and just put myself out there,” he explained to Us at Gitano in New York City. “I’m feeling pretty good. Got some new glasses. I feel pretty good.”

In 90 Days: Hunt for Love, eight singles from the 90 Day universe will embark on a new quest for love as they travel to Tulum, Mexico, for a unique opportunity. Joined by fresh faces and romantic hopefuls, these love-hungry alums will create must-see TV as they jump back into the dating game.

While Colt couldn’t share too much about his experience, he did admit there were a couple of people he was surprised to see on the show.

“I would say Cortney [Reardanz] because I never met her before, but I saw her before,” he shared. “Then Chantel [Everett] obviously took [me] by surprise. She looked different. I haven’t seen her. I saw her years ago, so, yeah.”

90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days’ Tim Malcolm, Jennifer Tarazona and Usman Umar are also part of the cast, alongside 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way alum Tiffany Franco and 90 Day: The Last Resort’s Rob Warne.

One person extra excited to watch Colt’s new show is his mom, Debra Johnson.

“She’s happy,” Colt teased to Us before the premiere. “She always wants me to put myself out there, try new things. So yeah, she’s very supportive.”

90 Date: Hunt for Love premieres on TLC Monday, May 26, at 8 p.m. ET with episodes streaming on Max. Hunt for Love: Between the Sheets after show airs following every new episode.

Each and every day, millions of shoppers turn on QVC hoping to find everything from skincare and jewelry to food and electronics — but what does it really take for the shopping network to pull off “the Olympics of live television?”

While the hosts in front of the camera make everything look easy, guests like fashion designer Stacy London know that there’s a whole group of people who make it all seamless.

“I would like to give credit to every producer on every set that I have ever been on, but QVC is the Olympics of live television,” London exclusively shared with Us Weekly as QVC celebrated the launch of its Q50 “Age Of Possibility” platform in Los Angeles on May 14. “There is nothing I have ever experienced like it, with people talking in your ear while you’re trying to be personable and sell things. It is a ton of work.”

Whether they are a program host, fashion designer or vendor, each QVC star Us chatted with couldn’t help but gush about the place they get to work at.

QVC’s Most Memorable Hosts: Where Are They Now?

“The moment I wake up, I turn on QVC,” fashion designer Lawrence Zarian told Us. “Not only am I part of the family, I’m a huge fan. I watch. I listen. I take copious notes. I learn. I shop and buy a lot. I love it.”

Us decided to go straight to QVC’s biggest stars and ask some burning questions about the network.

Keep reading to get plenty of behind-the-scenes scoop about the shopping network that is nothing short of a big deal:

How Does One Prepare for a Jewelry Show?

Before presenting her lab-grown diamond and gemstone jewelry to viewers at home, Jennifer Miller makes sure her hands and fingers are camera-ready.

“I’ve discovered Westmore Beauty, which is a cover-up for any little spots on my hands,” she told Us. “Gel manicures help so my nails are always in tip-top shape without a chip. All these tricks and hacks are really important. You’ve got to be ready at any moment.”

According to Melissa Rivers, the team behind the Joan Rivers Classics Collection is always thinking of new looks and designs to keep the brand growing and succeeding after Joan’s death in 2014.

“I think we keep it updated and fresh,” Melissa said. “Same thing with age: You never want to get stale.”

What Is It Like Doing a Show Virtually? 

During the coronavirus pandemic, many vendors were forced to Zoom into the QVC studios and present their products. While many now come to the studios in Studio Park, Pennsylvania, many see the perks of filming from home.

“I change every time something new is presented,” Peace Love World fashion designer Alina Villasante shared with Us. “I go to the side — away from a camera — switch my clothes and I come back. What I love about [shooting remotely] is that I can show the customer how to wear my clothes or how I wear it and things she can do to make it better for herself or her body.”

For Kim Gravel, she treats remote programs as a one-woman show as she handles tech, lighting and everything else that comes up all by herself.

“I turn on my 5,000 diva ring lights and we stream on an iMac computer,” she said. “I never can find my earbuds, because my kids take everything. It’s so mom and pop in the most professional way. I think that’s the charm of it.”

What Is It Like Having Your Item as Today’s Special Value?

Every day starting at midnight, QVC introduces its best value of the day known as the Today’s Special Value. The person behind the item works around the clock to deliver multiple presentations throughout the day.

“There’s a La-Z-Boy in the green room and you can turn off all the lights and it’s complete darkness,” ME by Jennie Garth fashion designer Jennie Garth shared with Us about breaks in between shows. “You just train yourself. I’ve trained my whole life on sets to rest and go. When it’s showtime, it’s showtime.”

After the TSV wraps, Gravel said she needs a couple of days to rest and recharge before it’s back to business.

“It takes me about two days — and I’m 53, and I got some energy,” she said. “But it takes me about two days to recover.”

How Early Do Fashion Designers Prepare Their Collections?

The clothes and fashion accessories viewers see on TV for sale are usually planned months in advance.

“We usually have our collections done a year in advance, and part of that for me is making sure that I am not doing what’s on trend,” London explained about her B Stacy London line. “Because, frankly, I don’t believe in trends. I think that when women are 50 and over, they are quite capable of experimenting with trends or non trends, or what works for them in any way that they want. It doesn’t mean you’re not going to get trendy colors out of me or some silhouettes out of me, but I wanted to do something from QVC that felt specifically for how to dress casually in a more sophisticated way as a middle-aged person who is not a golden girl.”

Villasante confirmed the timeline, adding, “We go into planning and inspiration mode one year before. Three months after that, everything is pretty much designed and goes into the sourcing process.”

Are the QVC Testimonial Phone Calls Live and Unscripted?

From all accounts, nobody knows what will happen when a QVC shopper calls in on live TV. According to Gravel, the host and guest only know the person’s name and the state they are calling from.

“It is truly, authentically the customer calling in,” the Belle by Kim Gravel founder said. “And you never know what they’re gonna say. They never tell you in your ear, ‘She’s gonna ask you about this.’”

For Carla Rockmore — who recently launched her fashion brand, Carla Rockmore Collection — she looks forward to a viewer calling in.

“I love when somebody calls in because I get this interaction outside the studio,” she told Us. “I can hear what they may be interested in or what they want to see or a question I haven’t answered.”

What Is It Really Like to Work With the QVC Hosts?

Time and time again, QVC stars say they are asked on the street to share what it’s like working with their favorite hosts. Spoiler alert: They always have good things to say.

“[David Vebanable] is reliable. He is dependable. He is honest. He is true,” Sandra Lee told Us. “He is all the things you think he is and more.”

Zarian, who creates pieces for BEAUTIFUL by Lawrence Zarian, said every single host has taken time to “help me, guide me, direct me and pass on their tips/tricks/talents to get me up to speed.”

“The hosts work so hard and are so committed to their craft,” he added. “The extra time they spend with me is truly a gift. Before every one of my shows, I carve out time with the host so that we’re on the same page for the day.”

What Is It Like in the Kitchen?

If there’s a cooking show, chances are Temp-tations founder Tara Tesher has a product available. “A three-hour show [of just Temp-tations] can be anything from 21 to 24 items and it has no breaks,” Tesher told Us. “I spend a lot of time before the show making sure I know what I’m doing, where I’m going, what kind of demos I’m doing. The rest just flows. You can’t script it. You roll with it.”

As for what happens to all of the food prepared for the shows, it’s always enjoyed by the QVC staff.

“There’s no limit on how much you can eat,” program host Monifa Days said. “I actually eat before the show because what happens is at the top of that four-hour show, if you’re hungry, you go in on that steak and you have three and half hours of eating food? It is very difficult.”

Fellow program host Terri Conn added, “Sometimes we have a table full of the leftovers that we either bring home to our family or we share with the crew.”

What Makes the QVC Models Special? 

Behind every great fashion show are a group of women showcasing the shoes, pants, handbags and outfits available for sale.

“It’s about the attitude. It’s about the walk. It’s how they feel in the clothes, and that’s really what sets it apart,” Villasante shared with Us. “It’s not just the clothes. It’s the feeling and it’s something to make you feel beautiful.”

Zarian added, “Our QVC models are always loved, respected and celebrated. They are truly a big part of the history/tapestry of the company, each collection. When it comes to our one-hour live show, I personally work with our stylists and we bring my BEAUTIFUL pieces to life.”

Who Loves Working Together? 

When QVC program hosts look at their schedule of shows for the week, there are some guests they absolutely know will make a fantastic hour.

Days loves working with Denim & Company’s Gary Goben while host Leah Williams savors a beauty hour with Doris Dalton.

While Conn enjoys time with designer Isaac Mizrahi, host Mary DeAngelis promises every show with Gravel is going to be “fun and off the rails.”

Shawn Killinger said she loves working with Brandis Bradley, Harry Slatkin and Dennis Basso. “The things that man has told me in a 30-second commercial break before we come back live,” she teased. “He’s literally the best.”

Do QVC Hosts Really Shop at the Network?

Absolutely yes! While Williams swears by Supersmile teeth whitening and Philosophy’s Purity Made Simple cleanser, Days loves her Dyson vacuum and Vitamix blender.

Conn said the DynaTrap has saved her family from mosquito bites while DeAngelis can’t get enough of Dr. Denese’s hydroshield for her skin.

Killinger went so far as to list her most recent purchases, including Charles David shoes, Scrub Daddy sponges and Wen by Chaz Dean bronzing mist.

“Skeptics say, ‘Oh, you don’t own everything in your show,’” DeAngelis told Us. “I’ve been here for 17 years. You’d be surprised.”

Dolores Catania’s future in the Real Housewives universe may be getting a change of scenery.

As The Real Housewives of New Jersey remains on pause after a drama-filled season 14, reports have surfaced claiming Catania, 54, will be appearing on The Real Housewives of Rhode Island. 

One source, however, exclusively told Us Weekly that nothing is official with the longtime Bravo star just yet.

“Dolores may be appearing on The Real Housewives of Rhode Island, but not necessarily in a friend or full-time capacity,” the insider explained to Us. “She has authentic roots there, and the idea is she would set a tone but not as an official cast member.”

'RHONJ' Stars Share Their Honest Thoughts About the Show's Future

On May 7, Bravo announced their upcoming slate of programming with a mix of returning shows and new additions. In addition to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, The Real Housewives of Orange County, The Real Housewives of Potomac and The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City being renewed, the network also announced The Real Housewives of Rhode Island is officially in the works.

“Set against the shores of the Ocean State, The Real Housewives franchise expands into the world of a tight-knit circle of Rhode Islanders who have deep community roots and families that go back generations,” the synopsis stated. “With aspirational lives, thriving businesses and tangled family dynamics, these decade-long friendships prove that in a state this small, there’s no escaping your past … or each other.”

Bravo has yet to announce the cast or a premiere date.

When asked about speculation that the latest Real Housewives city will feature a cast member from another show, Andy Cohen stayed mum.

“I think that’s been a little overstated,” he told People in an interview published Thursday, May 22, before adding he’s open to the idea. “It’s really about who’s in Rhode Island.”

As for what Bravo fans can expect from the show once it’s ready to go, Cohen, 56, described it as “Italian with a capital I” and teased that it’ll give fans “early Jersey vibes,” referring to The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

Teresa Calls 'RHONJ' Break 'Relaxing' as Dolores Compares it to a 'Breakup'

Catania became a full time cast member on The Real Housewives of New Jersey in 2016 ahead of season 7. Since then, she has brought her love for family and loyalty to the Bravo show while trying not to pick sides in the cast’s biggest feuds.

Since the show was paused in 2024, Catania has appeared on The Traitors and has been serving as a guest cohost for iHeartRadio’s “Two T’s in a Pod” podcast while Teddi Mellencamp battles cancer.

Cameras may be down, but some connections are heating up in the Bravo universe.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne and Summer House’s Jesse Solomon recently hooked up, a source tells Us Weekly.

But before fans began shipping the couple all summer long, the insider explained that “nothing serious is going on.”

“They were seen flirting and getting cuddly while out at a bar in New York City a few weeks ago,” the source shared with Us. “After their Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen appearance, they ended up hanging out afterward.”

Summer House's Lexi on How Jesse Misrepresented Their Relationship to Cast

What started off as friendly banter between two reality stars appears to have led to something fun and innocent.

“Jesse was very straightforward with her and Erika was into it,” the source shared. “It was playful and they were just having fun.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Erika and Jesse’s teams for comment.

Earlier this week, Summer House fans watched Jesse, 31, begin his single era after costar and fellow houseguest Lexi Wood broke up with him citing trust issues.

Although the pair are expected to reunite for the reunion show — kicking off Wednesday, May 28 — Lexi, 27, previously said she hasn’t spoken to Jesse since the current season of Bravo’s hit reality series premiered in February.

“I’m really looking forward to the reunion, to be able to hash some things out with Jesse,” she told Glamour in April. “I think somebody that can blatantly lie when they’re being filmed is a very scary person and I’m not necessarily interested in anything with him.”

As for Erika, 53, she has been single and recently revealed on iHeartRadio’s “Diamonds in the Rough” podcast that she was hesitant to go all-in with dating apps.

Erika Jayne Thinks It's Time Housewives 'Took Turns Setting Each Other Up'

“I’m not very good with the old dialogue. I’m very direct, very to the point, and men don’t like that,” she said during a November 2024 episode. “I never look at men and find them attractive. I always say this. I’m never looking at the way someone looks, necessarily. I’m always looking at the feeling I get from them.”

Although Erika experienced a public divorce from Tom Girardi, the “Pretty Mess” singer has been open to finding a second chance at love on or off camera.

“I have done a lot of work on myself and pulling myself together, rebuilding my life,” she told Bravo’s The Daily Dish in January. “[This is] a time to be open and to have fun.”

Jamie Foxx won’t forget the wild rumors that once surrounded his health scare.

“I snuck in my phone because I didn’t know what the outside world was saying, and I couldn’t get my mind around the fact that I had a stroke,” Foxx, 57, shared with The Hollywood Reporter in a roundtable interview published Thursday, May 22. “I’m in f***ing perfect shape. [I see things like,] ‘Puffy tried to kill me.’ No, Puffy didn’t try to kill me.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Diddy’s team for additional comment. (The rap mogul’s team has long maintained the rumor was entirely false and unfounded.)

That wasn’t the only crazy — and false — rumor that spread online during Foxx’s hospitalization.

Celebrity Health Scares Through the Years

“When they said I was a clone, that made me flip,” Foxx said in his latest interview. “I’m sitting in the hospital bed, like, ‘These bitch-ass motherf***ers are trying to clone me.’ And then I saw me walk into my room, but I’m white, so I see the white me.”

After Foxx shared his theory that hospital staff were trying to clone him, one psychiatrist asked if the actor was alright.

“I say, ‘Am I alright or am I all-white? I saw you trying to get the white motherf***ing Jamie Foxx and it ain’t going to happen,’” Foxx recalled. “[The doctor] just calmly goes, ‘I think we’re going to lower your dosage.’”

In December 2024, Foxx opened up about his past hospitalization during Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was.

In the Netflix comedy special, the actor said he experienced a bad headache in April 2023. The symptoms later led to a brain bleed, which led to a stroke.

In a rare public appearance at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards, Foxx shined a light on how his health scare transformed his outlook on life.

Jamie Foxx Through the Years: 'In Living Color' and Beyond

“You know how you take a picture on your cell phone and you hit that first filter and it brightens up? That’s the way life looks now. Everything is altered,” Foxx shared with E! News. “When it actually happens to you, you appreciate it more, I appreciate these moments more.”

Throughout his recovery, Foxx tried to remain largely tight-lipped about the specifics of his health scare. In July 2023, however, the actor made a rare statement to clarify some of the rumors surrounding his condition.

“You know, by being quiet, sometimes things get out of hand, people saying what I got [and] some people said I was blind, but as you can see the eyes are working. The eyes are working just fine!” he said in an Instagram video. “They said I was paralyzed, I’m not paralyzed, but I went to hell and back, and my road to recovery had some potholes as well. I’m coming back and I’m able to work.”

Britney Spears’ latest plane ride appeared to be a bumpy ride.

According to TMZ, the “I’m a Slave 4 U” singer, 43, was flying on a private jet from Cabo San Lucas to Los Angeles on Thursday, May 22, when she started drinking alcohol on the plane.

During the flight, Spears allegedly pulled out a cigarette, lit it and started smoking.

At one point in the trip, the flight attendants became alarmed and allegedly ordered the singer to put out the cig. Although Spears complied, the singer was met by authorities when she landed at LAX airport and was warned about her conduct, TMZ reported.

Britney Spears’ Ups and Downs Over the Years

Us Weekly has reached out to Spears’ rep and LAX police for comment. Private plane service JSX had no comment when reached by Us.

Earlier this week, Spears posted videos of herself dancing at what appeared to be a tropical destination. She didn’t leave a caption on her Instagram posts and continues to have comments turned off. (A source previously told Us in May 2024 that Spears considers her dancing Instagram videos “work,” adding that they “keep her entertained.”)

Ever since Spears’ conservatorship came to an end in late 2021, the singer has continued to stay away from the music industry.

At the same time, she’s had a lot to celebrate, including a recent reunion with her younger son, Jayden, 18. (The “Toxic” singer and ex-husband Kevin Federline also share Preston, 19.)

“He’s open to mending the relationship with his mom and seeing where things go,” a source exclusively told Us for a December 2024 cover story. “Britney was very excited to hear from him; [it] means everything to her.”

At home in Los Angeles, multiple sources told Us that Spears has a small circle of friends who regularly check in with her. One insider, however, warned that the singer can be “all over the place, and very hot and cold.”

“[She’s either] on top of the world happy or crying because of a paparazzi photo,” the insider shared.

Britney Spears Wants to 'Spend More Time' With Her 2 Sons: Sources

Looking toward the future, those closest to Spears are hopeful she can continue pursuing projects she’s passionate about like dancing, jewelry and writing.

“She’s been getting excited about a lot of different projects,” a source previously told Us before teasing a possible dance studio gig for Spears.

Another insider added, “Britney lives a very low-key life. She’s not career-focused — she only wants to do things that bring her happiness right now.”

Heather Locklear is back on the market after quietly parting ways with her fiancé Chris Heisser.

Multiple sources exclusively confirm to Us Weekly that the Melrose Place alum, 63, is single after dating Heisser, also 63, for many years.

“Heather and Chris are no longer together,” a source exclusively shared with Us. “Heather is single and she’s ready to date again.”

Another insider added, “She hasn’t seen Chris since the New Year but wishes him all the best.”

Stars Who've Gotten Sober

While details surrounding the split remain private, the first source said it was “a slow fizzle” and nothing dramatic happened. “They are still friends and support each other’s sobriety,” the source added.

“They are not spending as much time with each other. It’s minimal,” the source continued. “She’s focusing on herself. She is sober and doing really well.”

Back in June 2020, Us Weekly confirmed that Locklear and Heisser were engaged after a years-long on-again, off-again relationship.

After briefly dating in high school during the ‘70s, the pair reunited in 2017 and rekindled their romance. The duo briefly split in 2019 before getting back together one year later.

“They each go out of their way to make the other feel special — she’ll cook for him, he’ll buy her flowers, etc,” a source told Us at the time of the engagement. “They are still planning on getting married and still want a small and intimate wedding but of course because of COVID, they’re taking things slow and trying to figure out details.”

Instead of planning a wedding, Locklear is now enjoying quality time with her gal pals and daughter Ava, 27, who she shares with ex Richie Sambora.

“Heather’s main focus is her sobriety, gardening, cooking, and spending quality time with her daughter Ava and her friends,” the source shared.

Heisser isn’t the only ex Locklear remains on good terms with.

After playing love interests on Melrose Place, Locklear and Jack Wagner began dating in 2007 before getting engaged in August 2011. Although they split three months later, Wagner told Us that the pair still remain cordial.

Heather Locklear Reflects on Whether ‘Melrose Place’ Character Was ‘Mean’

“Just [for] little things,” he shared in March. “Birthday things or stuff like that. We stay friendly.”

When asked about a possible reboot of the Fox drama, Wagner said he’d be open to it — with a few new faces.

“You have to bring on young, new actors,” he explained. “It can’t be all about us. I don’t know what the longevity or interest in that would be. It would be more about a few of us probably starting the storylines out, letting them take place and then branching off into who their children are now or where they are.”

Tyler Baltierra and Catelynn Lowell’s latest update on daughter Carly has led to some new perspectives.

On the Thursday, May 22, episode of Teen Mom: The Next Chapter, Dr. Drew Pinsky had a virtual meeting with the couple to recall a private conversation he had with Carly’s adoptive parents, Brandon and Teresa Davis.

“I can tell you what was expressed to me about Carly,” he shared on the MTV reality show’s season finale. “Brandon said she is thriving and she has friends and she’s athletic and musical and she’s doing all these wonderful things.”

Catelynn tried to hold back tears as she wondered why Dr. Drew was sharing the update and not Carly’s adoptive parents.

Inside Tyler and Catelynn’s Relationship With Carly and Her Adoptive Parents

“Well thanks for keeping that beautiful girl away from me,” she said while getting visibly emotional.

Dr. Drew replied, “I don’t think that’s the intent. I understand that’s how it feels. I know you. I know how tough this is. I get it.”

A post shared by Teen Mom (@teenmom)

In 2009, Tyler and Catelynn — who also share Nova, 10, Vaeda, 6, and Rya, 3, — placed their newborn daughter Carly, now 16, for adoption. What started as an open adoption changed over time with Brandon and Teresa limiting in-person visits between Carly and her birth parents.

“In terms of being unblocked and a visit, I don’t see that not happening, frankly,” Dr. Drew shared. “You got to go through the baby steps. But you are encouraged to send gifts on Christmas, birthdays and when gifts are completely appropriate.”

While Tyler expressed his belief that it’s “weird” to be getting this information from someone other than Brandon and Teresa, Dr. Drew explained that no situation is perfect.

“What Teresa kept saying is she absolutely wants what you want and wants to maintain a relationship, but she feels like she needs a reset and for everybody to calm down and let all the negativity [settle],” he said. “[Carly] sings in church. She’s quite an accomplished singer and they recorded a song of hers. I would love to listen with you because it’s so moving. It does feel like Carly is sending a message of, ‘I’m good.’ Do you guys want to hear it?”

Citing her mental health, Catelynn said she wanted to listen in private. According to MTV, when she asked for the link to hear the performance, Brandon and Teresa denied the request.

Us Weekly has reached out to Brandon and Teresa for comment.

In a joint statement on social media, both Carly and Tyler promised to not speak about Carly, Brandon and Teresa publicly moving forward.

“Birthparents are always at the mercy of the adopters (which is understandable since we’re the ones who relinquished our baby to them) but that still doesn’t make it any less hard or painful,” Tyler and Catelynn wrote via Instagram on Thursday. “As I’ve stated before, we won’t be mentioning our biological daughter or her parents anymore & that’s why we’re actually relieved that this episode is airing, so that way we can all just finally move forward.”

Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra Think Carly’s Parents Have ‘Insecurity’

In addition, both Catelynn and Tyler apologized if past comments on Teen Mom or other platforms had a negative impact.

“We are incredibly sorry if anything we have said about our truth as birthparents has hurt you or Carly or negatively impacted your life. That was never our intention,” the pair said in a letter to Brandon and Teresa. “We’re the adults here & it’s our job to put everything aside for the best interest of Carly. Which requires open, honest & transparent communication. So we hope moving forward, you will participate in that requirement.”

Teen Mom: The Next Chapter airs on MTV Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET.

Cheyenne Floyd and Zach Davis are ready to expand their family one final time.

On the Thursday, May 22, episode of Teen Mom: The Next Chapter, the couple confirmed they are expecting their second child together later this year.

“I think we were in shock,” Cheyenne exclusively told Us Weekly when recalling the scene when she found out she was pregnant. “It wasn’t expected, like, at all. God’s plan is always bigger than ours.”

As seen on the season finale, Cheyenne was preparing to start fertility treatments in less than a week. Everything changed, however, when a Clear Blue pregnancy test confirmed she was pregnant.

'Teen Mom' Stars Share Their Kids' Biggest Milestones From 2024

It’s exciting news for a couple who have bravely documented their journey in expanding their family on reality TV.

“This has been quite the journey for me and Chey,” Zach told Us. “We definitely kind of teetered back and forth on wanting a baby. I wanted one, and then she went through the phase of wanting one, and I wasn’t on the same page as her, but then we kind of came to the same chapter, and we tried to make it work.”

Along the way, the couple experienced infertility issues with Zach learning his sperm wasn’t “swimming.” As for Cheyenne, she discovered she has PCOS, a common hormonal disorder in women.

With help from therapy, their faith and the support of family and friends, the MTV reality stars never gave up hope.

“It’s God’s timing,” Zach explained. “God gave us a child right before we’re going to start. And I’m hella happy. I’m excited. I just want 10 fingers, 10 toes, and I’m happy.”

While Cheyenne admitted that she’s “constantly nauseous” and tired, she’s grateful she doesn’t have to hide the news anymore.

“On Snapchat is the hardest because I share so much on Snap,” Cheyenne joked. “People on Snap are like, ‘Why do you have a blanket on and it’s hot outside?’ or ‘Why do you have on a hoodie and it’s hot?’ I’m very happy that we’re sharing. … It’s like, I can’t hide it anymore.”

Throughout the season, both Cheyenne and Zach have been overwhelmed with supportive messages from people who have found themselves in similar situations.

After pushing through highs and lows, the couple hopes their story is a reminder to viewers to proceed with caution when asking others about their fertility journeys.

“Always give that person grace and allow them to share what they want to share before you’re asking a million questions and you’re prying,” Cheyenne said. “I just think that you have to be very mindful when you’re talking about fertility, and watch the trigger warnings. You just don’t know what can trigger a woman or a man when having these conversations.”

Now that another season of Teen Mom: The Next Chapter has wrapped, both Cheyenne and Zach are looking forward to making special family memories all summer long. (Cheyenne shares Ryder, 8, with ex Cory Wharton and Ace, 4, with Zac.)

They are also hoping to continue sharing their family’s reality for many more seasons to come.

“We’ve been so blessed to be able to share our story with the Teen Mom family now for eight years, and it’s a huge blessing,” Cheyenne explained. “The fact that we’ve built such a strong family, which is like an internet family, I want to keep sharing with the internet aunties and uncles, and I just hope that people continue to watch our journey and watch our family grow.”

Teen Mom: The Next Chapter airs on MTV Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET.

A manager at a prominent Los Angeles hotel is sharing a glimpse into Sean “Diddy” Combs’ requests before a typical stay.

Frédéric Zemmour — who serves as the general manager of L’Ermitage in Beverly Hills — testified in Diddy’s ongoing trial on Thursday, May 22, and walked the jury through the rapper’s hotel records. (Diddy, 55, has pleaded not guilty to all charges and denied all of the allegations against him.)

While testifying at the Daniel Patrick Moynihan U.S. Courthouse in New York City, Zemmour helped explain an internal note about the famous hotel guest.

“ALWAYS spills candle wax on everything and uses excessive amounts of oil,” the internal note stated. “Likes the room HOT! Please set thermostat to 75 degrees.”

A Complete Timeline of Allegations in the Diddy Trial: Freak Offs and More

The piece of evidence also included an instruction for employees to mark the room “out of order upon departure for deep cleaning.”

At one point, Diddy received a $500 fee for leaving “large deposits of candle wax” on furniture.

According to The Washington Post, Zemmour also testified that Diddy would book rooms under aliases including “Frank Black” and “Ryan Lopez.” Staffers, however, allegedly knew the rap mogul’s identity and placed him in certain entry-level rooms, according to the court exhibits.

Zemmour did not face cross-examination from Diddy’s defense team, and the government proceeded to call another witness soon after.

Prosecutors have claimed that Diddy held “freak offs” at various hotels and requested that rooms be prepared to his liking. Candles, mood lighting and baby oil were allegedly some of Diddy’s frequent requests for hotel workers.

Previously, prosecutors have described freak offs as “elaborate and produced sex performances” that Diddy allegedly orchestrated and coerced others to participate in.

Cassie's Friend Testifies She 'Feared' for Her Life After Diddy Encounter

In September 2024, Diddy was arrested in New York City on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has vehemently denied all allegations and pleaded not guilty.

“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo said in a statement at the time of his client’s arrest. “He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit, Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”

Since Diddy’s trial began on May 5, the rapper has heard testimony from his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, Kid Cudi and Danity Kane’s Dawn Richard. The trial is expected to last through early July.

No matter how busy life gets, Russell Dickerson and wife Kailey Dickerson always have time to enjoy a very important Costco purchase.

“I’d say the Costco hot tub has brought our family a lot of joy,” Russell, 38, exclusively shared with Us Weekly when partnering with HERSHEY’S to create the ultimate s’more for summer. “That’s where we have our quiet time.”

Russell and Kailey, 36 — who share sons Remington, 4, and Radford, 19 months — recently celebrated 12 years of marriage.

While life on the road and raising two boys keeps their lives busy and full, alone time in their beloved Costco splurge has proven to do wonders.

Russell Dickerson Recalls Son Holding Hands With Thomas Rhett’s Daughter

“The other morning, we got up before the kids, and that’s where we had a conversation,” Russell said. “There’s coffee and conversation.”

It’s an example of the couple prioritizing intentional time in their relationship. Ever since meeting at Belmont University in Nashville, Russell and Kailey have been by each other’s sides, celebrating life’s greatest joys.

While Russell’s career in country music continues to rise, a busy tour schedule won’t prevent him from spending time with the woman who matters most in his life.

“We’ll leave the kids at home with the nanny, and we’ll get to hang out for two or three days,” he shared. “We’ll get to be intentional with each other. We’ll get to go find a little coffee shop, find a little lunch spot, dinner spot, whatever it is. And that has been huge for our marriage.”

Once they are back home, the couple follow the “combine and conquer” strategy and prove to be an unstoppable parenting team.

“It’s a couple of days here and there on the road, and then come home and have family time as much as we can for days straight,” Kailey shared. “When we’re home, we’re just home, and it’s been really sweet.”

Jesse Eisenberg’s New Favorite NYC Restaurant Is Mission Ceviche

With summer quickly approaching, Russell will be performing across the country as part of his Russell Mania tour.

When he’s home, however, the “God Gave Me a Girl” singer is likely in the hot tub or by the fire making s’mores with HERSHEY’S Milk Chocolate with Caramel bars.

“We’ve always been a camping family,” he told Us. “We have this fire pit up in our house. We’re making s’mores all the time. With two young boys, that’s such a special treat, and partnering with HERSHEY’S with this new caramel dropped infusion, it’s the perfect little addition, gooey dripping treat. We’re getting messy anyway, we might as well just add some caramel in there.”

Wendy Williams’ current living arrangements are being put under the spotlight once again.

After the ID Channel premiered a new special titled TRAPPED: What Is Happening to Wendy Williams?, some fans grew concerned about a claim that Williams, 60, was moved to a more restrictive area in her New York City assisted living facility after drinking on her birthday in July 2024.

According to a source, Williams did in fact get drunk while celebrating at a rooftop bar. The incident, however, didn’t have an impact on where she lived.

“She was always supposed to be on the fifth floor,” a source exclusively shared with Us Weekly. “But she got a temporary room on the third floor [which allowed her more access]. It was not a punishment [to move her to the fifth floor]. It was always going to be her room. She was just waiting for it to be empty.”

Wendy Williams Is 'Content' and 'Happy' Amid Ongoing Health Battle

A source described Williams’ guardianship as like “a bad movie” and questioned why the talk show host was placed at a facility with a bar if the guardian knew she had issues with substance abuse.

Williams was originally placed in a guardianship in 2022 and diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) the following year.

While appearing on The View in March, Williams admitted that she “celebrated” her 60th birthday in July 2024, but insisted that she is now sober.

“[My] relationship [with substances] is fine and is wonderful,” she shared. “I’ve had my [vices] and I have to tell you something: I am easily going on with my life, alcohol-free.”

Last year, the former talk show host’s guardian Sabrina Morrissey filed a memo saying she’d become “cognitively impaired and permanently incapacitated” following a diagnosis of early-onset dementia.

But Williams insisted to the ladies of The View that she is not cognitively impaired and does not know why she is being kept in a “memory unit” at an assisted living facility: “Get off my neck,” she said in the phone interview of her guardian and the judge who ordered the guardianship.

She added she just wants to “move on with my life: “It’s time for my money and my life to get back to status quo,” Williams said on The View.

The View's Sunny Hostin Weighs in on Wendy Williams’ Health Battles

Instead of discussing hot topics through a talk show or radio show, Williams tries to keep herself busy with her current living arrangements, the source told Us.

“She goes to the gym a couple times a week and she spends a lot of time in her room unless she has appointments,” the source shared. “She can see her family, but anyone else needs permission from her guardian.”

Williams is in “good spirits” after she obtained new attorneys, with the source adding they are working to help get Williams out of the guardianship.

“They have her best interests at heart. Moving forward, everything should be better for her,” the source claimed. “Whatever is best for Wendy, they will go through the proper channels and it will be in Wendy’s best interest.”

Back in March, Williams was spotted on a rare public outing where she enjoyed lunch with friends in Manhattan.

Wendy Williams' Brother Says She’s in 'Great Shape Mentally and Physically'

Although fans are unable to receive regular updates directly from the TV personality, the source said she is “positive and happy” – especially after gaining new legal representation.

“It’s not like it was before because there are people who are actually working on her case,” the source explained. “I believe Wendy will get out, but barriers will be put in place to protect her. I believe at some point, she will have as much independence as she can handle.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Williams’ attorney and guardian for comment.

Kanye West has vowed to stop spreading antisemitism weeks after releasing a song titled “Heil Hitler.”

In a series of social media posts, the rapper, 47, gave thanks to God and said he would do his part to “share peace” with the world around him.

“I love all people,” he wrote via X on Thursday, May 22. “I am done with antisemitism. Share peace. GOD CALLS FOR PEACE. The earth itself is in God’s kingdom.”

West also seemingly asked for forgiveness for his past controversial remarks on social media.

Ben Platt: ‘I Really Notice All of the Silence’ Amid Rising Antisemitism

“I forgive those who have caused me pain,” he wrote via X. “God forgive me for the pain I’ve caused.”

While it’s unclear what led to West’s latest social media posting spree, the rapper said he recently got to chat with his children. (West shares North, 11 Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 5, with ex-wife Kim Kardashian.)

“I simply got a FaceTime from my kids and I wanna save the world again,” he wrote via X. “Thank you God.”

While Kardashian, 44,  has not publicly commented on West’s latest posts, she has previously spoken out against hate speech. “I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end,” she wrote via X in October 2022.

John Legend Explains Why He Fell Out With Ex-Friend Kanye West

Earlier this month, West made headlines after he shared his latest song, “Heil Hitler,” along with its companion title, “WW3,” which similarly glorifies Adolf Hitler, the architect of the Holocaust and the killing of 6 million Jewish people.

According to NBC News, Spotify, SoundCloud and other tech platforms worked to remove the new song, but the track and its video spread quickly on platforms like X, where it racked up millions of views.

In February, West also sparked controversy when he shared a series of X posts that included antisemitic remarks, including a message praising Hitler. West’s X account was briefly deactivated and he was later dropped from his talent agency.

Many stars have spoken out against West’s remarks, with David Schwimmer, who identifies as Jewish, calling for the “Gold Digger” rapper to be removed from all social media platforms.

Kim, Khloe Address Kanye's Antisemitic Comments: 'Gravely Irresponsible'

“We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr. [Elon] Musk,” Schwimmer, 58, wrote via Instagram in February. “Kanye West has 32.7 million followers on your platform, X. That’s twice as many people than the number of Jews in existence. His sick hate speech results in REAL LIFE violence against Jews.”

The Friends actor added, “Silence is complicity.”

On Thursday, West seemingly released a new song with rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again titled “Alive.”

Howie Mandel will never forget the day he shared his obsessive compulsive disorder diagnosis with the world for the first time.

During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show in 1998, Mandel, 69, witnessed somebody touch the exit door’s knobs. What came next was a series of events that would change his life.

“It was my turn to leave and I said, ‘I don’t want to touch the door. Open the door for me,’” Mandel exclusively shared with Us Weekly before kicking off season 20 of America’s Got Talent on Tuesday, May 27. “They wouldn’t open the door. They thought they were being funny and they were. And then I grabbed tissues to open the door.”

While some people witnessing the sequence of events thought it was funny, Mandel believed he was starting to have a panic attack.

The 6 Best, Most Emotional 'America's Got Talent' Golden Buzzers, Ranked

“I said, ‘I can’t breathe and you’re going to have to call 911 if you don’t open the door,’” he shared with Us. “I walk out the hall and they’re still talking. And I went, ‘That was on the f***ing air.’ I didn’t know. I thought it was in a commercial. And then I got devastated.”

According to the Mayo Clinic, OCD features a pattern of unwanted thoughts and fears known as obsessions. These obsessions can lead to repetitive behaviors or compulsions, which can have an impact on daily life.

More than 25 years after accidentally sharing his diagnosis with the world, Mandel still remembers the emotions he felt.

While he shares more details in his memoir, Here’s the Deal: Don’t Touch Me, Mandel said he was fearful after leaving the studio.

“My heart sank and I thought, ‘I just embarrassed my family. I’m not going to have a career. Nobody’s going to hire me anymore,’” he said. “I was going to run into traffic here.”

In a quick turn of events, Mandel said a male stranger approached him on a busy New York City street and told the comedian that he was listening to The Howard Stern Show.

Mandel quickly realized he was not alone in his diagnosis.

“He went, ‘Me too.’ And I went, ‘What? What does that mean?’” Mandel shared. “He goes, ‘I have that too. Thanks for talking about it.’ He helped me.”

‘America's Got Talent’ Tragedies

Despite his initial fears, Mandel continues to have a successful career in Hollywood. In addition to being a comedian, the best-selling author is returning to judge season 20 of America’s Got Talent with familiar friends like Mel B, Sofia Vergara and Simon Cowell. “I say this every year and I don’t want to be repetitive, but the thing about our show is previous years always inspire,” he told Us. “Somebody sees somebody do something and they go, ‘I can do that faster. I can do that higher. I can do that more.’ … Because we’re celebrating an anniversary, I think people have done things more dangerous, more different, more surprising and more original than I’ve ever seen.”

America’s Got Talent returns to NBC Tuesday, May 27, at 8 p.m. ET. Stream old episodes anytime on Peacock.

Hallmark actress Nikki DeLoach will never forget her first days of being a mom to her son Bennett.

“He had four congenital heart defects and without immediate intervention, he was not going to survive,” DeLoach, 45, exclusively shared with Us Weekly at the Children’s Heart Foundation’s Congenital Heart Walk on Sunday, May 18. “At five days old, Dr. Vaughn Starnes at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles — one of the world’s top pediatric heart surgeons — saved his life.”

Bennett’s health scare, however, wasn’t resolved with just one important surgery. At 12 months old and 18 months old, DeLoach’s “heart warrior” had additional heart procedures.

Now, he’s preparing to turn 8 years old and is able to play soccer, the piano and excel at school.

Hallmark Star Nikki DeLoach and Husband Ryan Goodell’s Relationship Timeline

“I grew up in this industry and had my first job at, like, eight years old,” DeLoach — who also shares Hudson, 11, with husband Ryan Goodell — recalled to Us from Griffith Park in Los Angeles. “And when you grow up in this industry, we think, ‘This is it.’ It’s our everything, until you face a life and death crisis with your child. Then you realize that there is nothing that matters more than our health and our ability to not just be alive, but to thrive in our lives.”

According to the Children’s Heart Foundation, congenital heart defects are America’s most common and deadly birth defect, with nearly 40,000 babies born with CHD each year in the United States.

DeLoach has vowed to use her platform to raise awareness for more research and to remind families affected that there are plenty of reasons to hope.

“I see [my son] on a playground, and I know for most parents that’s a given, but that’s not a given for parents of children with congenital heart defects,” she said. “Get your child’s heart checked. … I hope by the time I take my last breath in this world that it will just be a part of the screening of every newborn. When they are born, they get their ears checked, their eyes checked, everything else and their hearts. It sounds like a no-brainer to me.”

Although many years have passed since DeLoach was first introduced to the Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit or the CTICU, she still remembers the emotions she felt waiting for good news from health care workers.

During those critical surgeries and waiting periods, DeLoach said she relied on her faith and countless friends who showed up for months with food, smoothies, hugs and support.

“Parents are just as much heart warriors as the children,” she said. “It is such a hard thing to go through a life and death crisis with your child.”

Regardless of what health scare a child may face, DeLoach urges parents to be advocates for their youngest family members.

While the Hallmark star said she was raised in the South “to be seen and not heard,” everything changed when Bennett faced a difficult diagnosis.

A Guide to Hallmark Channel’s Leading Ladies

“Your job is to advocate for your child throughout the entire process, to ask for what you need, to speak up whenever you don’t understand something and to protect your child at all costs,” she said. “You have to learn how to become empowered in your own body and in your own mind and in your own heart and be your voice for that child.”

Along the way, DeLoach discovered that once she did it for her child, she could do it for countless others who need to be heard.

“What you’ll realize is if you could do it for your child, you can begin doing it for your community, for your country, for whatever is right,” she said. “And we can do it with kindness and compassion.”

Regardless of how much success Alison Victoria has found as an HGTV star, she’s a human first.

“I think that with anyone — whether you’re in the public eye or not — when something hurts, you can either be crippled by it, or you can be empowered by it,” Victoria, 43, exclusively shared with Us Weekly on Monday, May 19. “Stuff stings and it makes you second guess yourself.”

Over the weekend, Victoria was at the airport when she came across a critical article about herself. While traveling to Las Vegas to film her new show Sin City Rehab, the interior designer saw a post with the headline: “Why Some HGTV Fans Seriously Can’t Stand Alison Victoria.”

Although she’s been a public figure for many years and is aware that people can comment whatever they’d like online, Victoria said the words and angle of the story hurt her.

HGTV’s Biggest Breakout Stars: Chip and Joanna Gaines and More

“I told myself years ago that I wasn’t going to let anyone dim my light, and unfortunately, an article like that will, and it sucks,” Victoria explained. “My flame won’t go out but it’s awful to read.”

Critical comments can be especially “hurtful” for the HGTV star because everything she does on the small screen is unscripted and real.

“I do reality television, which means the person that you see on those shows like Windy City Rehab and my soon to be show Sin City Rehab, that is reality,” she explained. “That’s as real as reality gets. But that’s who I am to my core. People are seeing me for me.”

Victoria, however, knows she’s not alone when it comes to online bullying. From A-list actresses to ordinary moms posting about parenting, the real estate expert acknowledged that so many people are faced with critics and haters in their life.

Over the years, Victoria has tried her best to not take anything personally.

“Understand that the person on the other side is going through some sort of pain because it takes someone in pain to want to inflict pain on others,” she said. “‘If I hurt, then I’m going to hurt someone else.’ And that’s a very vindictive way to live. If you stop and you put yourself in that person’s shoes and you look at it from the outside, you can kind of feel their hurt, and you almost feel bad for them. When you feel bad for somebody, you have empathy.”

Victoria also tries to come from a place of gratitude. The Emmy-nominated producer starts her day with a five-minute journal, where she writes down what she’s grateful for and what she hopes will happen in the day ahead.

She’s also thrilled to have the support of her boyfriend, Brandt Andersen, who can get fired up and defend his partner or help put things into perspective.

“I love life. I wake up smiling. I can’t wait to see what the day is going to bring,” Victoria shared. “I worked really hard to get here, and it feels surreal that I’m finally in a place of true happiness, loving where I live and having the most amazing job in the world.”

HGTV Stars' Dating Histories Through the Years

When reflecting on the article, Victoria is moving forward and trying to prove that living well is the best revenge.

“That [writer] did dim my light, and those comments hurt my feelings,” she said. “But no one’s ever going to turn the lights out.”

Sin City Rehab is expected to premiere later this year on HGTV.

No bra? No problem for Whoopi Goldberg.

During the Tuesday, May 20, episode of The View, Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin and Alyssa Farah Griffin found themselves discussing the ideal way to put on the undergarment.

“You know what I feel like doing right now?” Behar, 82, asked her cohosts. “I feel like letting these girls loose. Back up.”

After causing the audience to erupt into laughter, the comedian proceeded to share a surprising revelation. According to Behar, her longtime friend and cohost doesn’t wear a bra.

Whoopi Goldberg Doesn’t See the Big Deal About Working Out in Jeans

“[Whoopi] liberated those girls a long time ago,” she said with a laugh. While Hostin, 56, was quick to describe bras as “torture devices,” Goldberg, 69, explained why they weren’t for her.

“I don’t wear one. I have not worn a bra in 50 years,” she explained during a “Hot Topics” segment. “It’s too uncomfortable, and I don’t mind if they hit the floor! They’re mine.”

Goldberg proceeded to get up from her chair and joke about what she does when her breasts get too low.

“This is what you do. You’re walking and then you go, ‘Hey girl,’” she joked while pretending to kick an object from the ground up to her body.

When Griffin, 35, asked where she puts her microphone on for every live show, Goldberg pointed to her underwear, which appeared to be a black tank top.

The conversation sparked after The View played a clip from the “Reasonably Shady” podcast, where The Real Housewives of Potomac stars Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon debated about the correct method of putting on a bra.

While Goldberg’s latest fashion revelation may come as a surprise to some, the Oscar winner has been open about her philosophy on clothes. Although she likes to get dressed up for special occasions like the Met Gala or an awards show, most of her days are focused on comfort.

“I wish I could tell you it’s deep like that, but it’s not,” she told People in March when asked about her fashion point of view. “If it fits and it’s comfortable, I put it on.”

'The View' Cohosts Slam Body-Shamers Who Judged Selena Gomez's Appearance

She reiterated her philosophy during an appearance on Good Morning America in 2018.

“I’ve spent all of my career being comfortable, and people used to get very mad at me because I would wear sneakers to really important kind of things,” she shared. “I would see people looking really pained at these things. I’d be comfortable as hell.”

HSN program host Suzanne Runyan is bidding a fond farewell to the network’s Florida studios.

“So last night I finished my last shift at our HSN studios in St. Petersburg, Florida!” Runyan wrote via Instagram on Sunday, May 18. “Hope you get a laugh at my attempt of re-creating a very funny movie scene.”

In her video, the longtime host packed up some of her most important work items, including an NFL jacket she can’t live without.

“All I need is my giant HSN credit card and my picture and my laptop and my [Philadelphia] Eagles jacket and this chair,” Runyan said in the video, inspired by a scene from The Jerk. “Actually, I’m super excited about moving to our new HSN studios in West Chester, PA. See you there.”

UPDATE — 5/21/25, 6:42 p.m. ET: Are they or aren’t they dating? That’s the question some fans continue to ask after JoJo Siwa shared cozy new photos from her birthday trip with Chris Hughes.

“This years birthday week was more magical than anything,” Siwa, 22, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, May 21. “Full of surprises, family time, performing, chilling, laughing, loving, smiling and good meaningful cries. Absolutely beautiful, wouldn’t change a single thing a week I’ll remember for the rest of my life.”

One day before, Hughes, 32, raised eyebrows when he shared his own photos of himself cuddling with Siwa.

Original story: 

Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa’s bond continues to blossom outside the Big Brother house.

After Siwa, 22, celebrated her birthday on Monday, May 19, her fellow Celebrity Big Brother UK houseguest, 32, decided to post a collage of photos with his close friend.

“The previous 7 days have been the prettiest.. ,” Hughes wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, May 20.

Siwa and Hughes raised eyebrows in the assortment of pictures as they got cozy at the airport after a trip to Universal Orlando Resort’s new theme park, Universal Epic Universe.

JoJo Siwa Addresses Kath Ebbs Split, Reveals Status With Chris Hughes

Another photo memory included the pair embracing for a hug over a meal, while a third picture captured the duo having fun in a swimming pool. Siwa’s mom, Jessalynn, was even included in one of the shots.

“This has to be a hard launch,” one user wrote in the comments section. Another fan added, “Okay, sooooo now what??? .”

On April 7, Siwa and Hughes entered the Celebrity Big Brother UK house as total strangers. In a matter of days, the pair became dear friends and captivated audiences with their dance parties and close bond.

When the show wrapped later in the month, Siwa was confident her friendship with Hughes would continue — even if cameras stopped rolling.

“We still speak all the time, obviously, naturally,” the Dance Moms alum exclusively shared with Us Weekly for a digital cover story. “Now to be out of the house, we just exist, and it is what it is. We’re happy, and we have each other. It’s a great little special friendship that we have.”

In recent weeks, Siwa has maintained that her friendship with Hughes is platonic and is not the cause of her recent breakup with Kath Ebbs. (While on Celebrity Big Brother UK, Siwa identified herself as queer. She and Ebbs split at the show’s wrap party after several months of dating.)

“I think what’s so special about Chris and I is our bond is so genuine that neither of us care what people make of it because we know our genuine friendship,” Siwa told Us. “We know our bond.”

For the fans who were surprised by Siwa’s latest friendship from reality TV, the former Nickelodeon star said she wasn’t expecting it either. But as she told Us, one can never know when they will find a “friendship soulmate.”

“You can’t explain it. It just is kind of there,” Siwa explained about her bond with Hughes. “I’ve had it in a few different ways and every person that’s come into my life in that way, it’s a different bond. It’s a different relationship.”
