The first five seasons of Below Deck Mediterranean feel like a fever dream now. During this era, Hannah Ferrier reigned supreme as the chief stew of this series. Then, Hannah had to walk the plank. Thankfully, Hannah is (currently) thriving, courtesy of her adorable family and an incredible new career update.

Hannah Ferrier is enjoying life post-Below Deck Med, and has a career update

On Thursday, April 17, Hannah announced her new representation and partnership with The Digital Renegades, an agency that covers a variety of influencers and stars like Hannah. This same agency also represents Captain Sandy Yawn, Hannah’s former boss. Thankfully, these two have made amends since Hannah’s firing.

The announcement for Hannah’s new career gig starts with a cheer, saying, “We are so excited to welcome [Hannah] to The Digital Renegades!” Then, this agency gave a quick recap of her services on BDM before continuing their announcement, stating, “With over five seasons on the show, Hannah quickly became a fan favorite thanks to her sharp wit, leadership skills, and unfiltered personality. Before stepping into the spotlight, Hannah spent over a decade working in the luxury yachting industry, where she honed her expertise in hospitality and high-end service. After leaving Below Deck Med in 2020, she transitioned into podcasting and entrepreneurship.”

After leaving BDM behind, Hannah started a podcast, Dear Reality, You’re Effed! She is also the founder of Ocean International Training Academy, which The Digital Renegades noted in their post. Likewise, she is a mother, a wife, and a friend to many, so her plate is full and overflowing with positive storylines these days.

The Digital Renegades then labeled Hannah “an influential voice in parenting and lifestyle content, frequently sharing glimpses into her life as a mother on social media. With a global following and a magnetic presence, Hannah Ferrier continues to make waves in entertainment, business, and digital media.” In the comments, Hannah celebrated, typing, “So excited.”

Cheers, Hannah!

Below Deck Mediterranean is streaming on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

Tzarina Mace-Ralph is having a rough go in Season 3 of Below Deck Down Under. She is on her second sous-chef, but tensions are starting to mount between this duo. Likewise, she and Lara Rigby are also feuding. Now, Tzarina is beginning to feel like this crew is pushing her out.

Tzarina Mace-Ralph was the topic of conversation on Below Deck Down Under

Episode 12 just aired on Bravo. Alesia Harris called Tzarina out for her poor communication skills. Then, Alesia entered a cabin to discuss this narrative with two other crew members. Unfortunately, Tzarina overheard their remarks, and their words greatly stung her heart.

Several beats before and after, Tzarina exchanged equally frustrating words with Lara. Lara wanted an excursion to go off without a hitch, which meant she thought Tzarina needed to attend. Tzarina reluctantly agreed, yet she only stayed a few minutes because her list of responsibilities back on board was long.

After Tzarina left this excursion at a local distillery, Alesia, Lara, and Brianna Duffield grew closer. Back on board, Lara praised Alesia for her work. But then, Alesia and Tzarina encountered the aforementioned communication roadblock, which led Alesia to seek comfort outside the galley with Lara and Bri.

“I don’t know if Lara is trying to mess with me right now, but she seems like she’s grooming my sous chef to be against me. And that’s not a friend. She should be supporting me,” Tzarina said in her confessional.

Sadly, things did not improve after this statement. By the end of BDDU Season 3, Episode 12, Tzarina sighs, sadly expressing in a separate confessional, “You just don’t give a sh*t about me.”

If you ask around, Lara is just as guilty of shady behaviors this season on BDDU. Now, hug it out, ladies.

Below Deck Down Under continues Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo and Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

TELL US – DO YOU THINK TZARINA IS GETTING INTENTIONALLY ICED OUT BY THIS CREW?

The post Below Deck Down Under’s Tzarina Mace-Ralph Feels ‘Pushed Out’ of Crew appeared first on Reality Tea.

Tzarina Mace-Ralph and Lara Rigby are not getting along on Below Deck Down Under Season 3. Chief stewards and chefs almost always feud at some point during each season. Yet, Tzarina and Lara knew each other long before filming began, so you would think they should know how to deal with each other already. But still, here we sit, yelling at our screens because both women keep failing to make peace on Bravo.

As each episode airs, I typically start praising one while raising my eyebrows at another. By the end of each episode, my praises and punitive pauses have shifted no less than a handful of times. I enjoy them both, yet I find Tzarina and Lara equally at fault for their current divide in Season 3 of BDDU. I will explain my opinion on this messy matter now.

Tzarina Mace-Ralph is struggling with communication on Below Deck Down Under Season 3

In the galley, communication and timing skills are everything. Tzarina knows this, as she works with tiny time constraints on board the biggest yacht yet in this franchise. Things are getting tricky in these conditions, as each plate needs to arrive in front of its consumer quickly. If not, the temperatures of these dishes will fall, decreasing the dining experience.

Alesia Harris joins Tzarina in the galley, making her the second sous-chef in the history of this series. At first, these two got along swimmingly. Now, they are not faring well, thanks to a breakdown in communication in the galley.

During Episode 12, Tzarina fumed at Lara, as Lara insisted that Tzarina attend an excursion Alesia could have handled solo. Wanting to be liked and fit in with the popular girls has always been a struggle Tzarina faces, as she notes on BDDU. So, Tzarina bit her tongue and went, but when she returned to the yacht, she kept biting her sass box, resulting in Alesia calling out her failing communication skills in the galley.

Then, Lara and Brianna Duffield pulled Alesia into their cabin. Here, Alesia reiterated her communication-related frustrations. Overhearing, Tzarina apologized and explained that her silence was due to her annoyance(s) with Lara, not her. Alesia understood, and she and Tzarina made peace.

Tzarina also struggles with her communication skills with Lara. For example, in Episode 1, Tzarina asked Lara to ensure their guests had a knife and fork on the table. But when the guests needed a spoon, Tzarina shifted the blame onto Lara, whom production cleared via flashbacks.

Lara Rigby’s Below Deck Down Under confessionals aren’t always kind

After filming, Lara appeared on Watch What Happens Live. “The biggest hurdle we had was communication,” Lara shared, noting that Tzarina and her “galley was far away from where the service area was, so that was tricky.” This statement is not terrible. However, the same does not ring true of her other confessionals, which Tzarina acknowledged via a separate episode of WWHL.

When Tzarina and Lara boarded this season, Tzarina talked kindly about Lara in her confessionals. Lara is “fantastic,” Tzarina emphasized, noting that she and Lara worked together on a prior yacht. Excited, Tzarina pulled Lara in as her roommate onboard BDDU Season 3. However, Tzarina was honest, explaining, “We are much better as off-the-boat friends, but we’ve matured.”

Lara, however, was not as gracious towards Tzarina in her first talking head. Shading Tzarina, Lara explained that our chef is “an acquired taste,” like “Vegemite,” which people “either love” or “hate.” Then, Lara joked, “I’m like Barbie, and she’s like Weird Barbie.” Lara also unnecessarily revealed that, on their last boat, “not everyone liked Tzarina.”

During Episode 11, Lara cracked a Brady Bunch joke, describing one of the sisters as a “bit quirky, like Tzarina.” Tzarina heard this dig, and immediately, her face fell. Unlike that old childhood rhyme, sticks, stones, and names, ALL SUCK.

What has the Below Deck Down Under cast said about Tzarina Mace-Ralph and Lara Rigby?

Many BDDU Season 3 crew members have an opinion about the feud between Lara and Tzarina, including the problematic parties involved. In an exclusive interview with Reality Tea, Tzarina stated, “The problem is that with something like Below Deck, you can’t be perfect, and Lara has such an obsession with control and perfection. I think it overcomes her and takes over.”

Lara also sat down with us, stressing that her confessional comments “never intended” to cause Tzarina harm. Instead, her jokes were “playful,” which Lara assumed Tzarina would understand. “But, if I have offended her, it wasn’t my intention,” Lara emphasized.

Recently, Bri and Marina Marcondes de Barros appeared on WWHL. Playing the game, “What Do You Choose, Stews,” Andy Cohen asked the ladies who had Alesia’s best interests in mind this season, Tzarina or Lara. Without missing a beat, minus the three-second countdown, both girls answered Lara. When asked who gave off the worst mean-girl energy this season between these two non-freshwater-located fighters, the women chose Tzarina.

Nevertheless (in my opinion), both parties have amends to make at this time. Thankfully, BDDU Season 3 is still airing on Bravo.

Below Deck Down Under is streaming on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

TELL US – ARE YOU FINDING FAULTS WITH TZARINA AND LARA, OR DO YOU THINK ONE OF THESE YACHTIES IS MORE TO BLAME FOR THE CURRENT DIVIDE ON SEASON 3 OF BDDU?

The post Opinion: Below Deck Down Under’s Tzarina Mace-Ralph and Lara Rigby Are Both at Fault appeared first on Reality Tea.

Stewardess Marina Marcondes de Barros is making waves on Below Deck Down Under Season 3. Her work ethic is strong. However, her jokes and service-related requests have not always landed well with her superiors.

Working underneath Lara Rigby, Marina desires to vacate her housekeeping duties in favor of service details. Captain Jason Chambers agrees with her requests on this matter. Nevertheless, Lara remains on the fence. If things are working, Lara prefers to keep them as they are.

Curious about many things, Reality Tea got Marina on the line. We wanted to know where she and Lara now stand, alongside what we can expect to see during the second half of Below Deck Down Under Season 3. Here is everything Marina sweetly spilled.

Marina Marcondes de Barros walks us through a typical day, parked in housekeeping on Below Deck Down Under

Trying to understand how hectic a day in the life of an understaffed BDDU stew is, we asked Marina to explain what her typical schedule entailed. “When you work on a yacht of 60 meters specifically, normally you have four girls, and we only had three. Which means that somebody’s gonna get extra jobs. Unfortunately, that person was me,” Marina explained.

“As soon as the guests wake up, they have breakfast with the service crew.” After they leave their cabins, Marina enters, preparing their beds and rooms “like they just arrived on the boat.” To do this, Marina must ensure that their “clothes are folded, hung perfectly, and color-coordinated.” Then, “You need to make sure the whole bathroom gets wiped and all the towels are facing the right way,” Marina added.

“But at the same time, the guests have left the room. So there are clothes on the floor and dirty towels. There are so many things that you need to rush to the laundry and start the machines because they take time. So you need to start the machines, put a timer on, and then run back to flip the things, or [the laundry] will build up,” Marina notes to our exhausted faces.  

Once this is complete, Marina must “rush down to the crew mess to set the table for a crew lunch. When that time comes, it’s guest lunch. So you return to their cabins to complete a sweep, making everything neat. So, this is the whole day until night when we do the turndown, where we take all the decorative pillows away.”

As Marina stated in Below Deck Down Under Season 3, which we co-sign, she is “too cute and charismatic to be in the dungeon.”

Lara Rigby trusted Marina Marcondes de Barros, but their friendship post-BDDU is hard to define

Recently, Captain Jason gave Marina a shot at service during an excursion. When Marina returned to the yacht, Lara was pleased by her efforts. Not pleased, however, are the fans of Below Deck Down Under. In her DM’s, Marina quickly began receiving messages stating she was being “unfairly treated,” she admits.

“In the beginning, I tried to defend the situation. But then, I did start questioning if I was being taken advantage of because now, it’s not just me,” Marina sighed.

“A lot of other Latina women, or women in general, have been sharing similar stories, that they’ve been taken advantage of just because people imagined they could take the load,” Marina clocked. However, she does not think this narrative “was the situation here. Lara trusted my hard work, but she lacked any motivation to give me a shot, to give me an opportunity.” Nevertheless, Marina is “a good sport” who “took it on the chin and did my best.”

When asked where she and Lara stand now, Marina admitted, “It’s hard to say. We left in a good place as friends, having a great time. She’s an amazing woman. She’s somebody that I look up to.”

But after filming, Lara spoke about the subject on TV, “brushing it off as if it was nothing. I wish she could appreciate more of my efforts instead of just brushing them off.”

Marina Marcondes de Barros appreciated Captain Jason Chambers’ support during Below Deck Down Under

Marina is all of us, speaking fluent sarcasm whenever her patience plummets. But, after making a cheeky swipe at Captain Jason, Marina quickly found herself in the hot seat. They “hit a low point with that little snarky comment,” Marina admitted. But in large part, she and Captain Jason were (and still are) great.

“We always were messing around with each other, joking, and he knew that I worked my ass off. He called me the tornado when I joined the boat. He said I just went around flipping, saying I could run the boat solo at a certain point. So it was fun. I loved being around him,” Marina remarked.

But what Marina appreciated the most was when Captain Jason took her “side with Lara, demanding that I get my space in the sun. It was moving to me. I appreciated it.” She teased: “Our friendship just gets stronger and stronger towards the end of the season. I cannot wait for you guys to see it.”

What does Marina Marcondes de Barros now think about Wihan du Toit and her newest crush, Nicolas Cattelan?

Wihan du Toit strung several women along before his firing, including Marina. After filming, Marina shared that “the whole crew did a South African trip. We all went there, and [Wihan is] from there, so we got connected.”

However, Wihan and Harry van Vliet sadly remain at odds. So, their time together was brief, she admitted. Marina also revealed that Wihan is “dating now, working on boats, but it’s a big world, so we will likely never see each other again.”

Turning raw, Marina confessed that it is “hard not to feel hurt when a guy kisses you and immediately after says on live TV that he likes somebody else. But I just got rid of a bad thing, so I’m not complaining. Thank you, universe,” Marina quipped.

Once Wihan departed, two new deckhands arrived. One of them, Nicolas Cattelan, caught her eye in Episode 12. On Nic, Marina gushed, “Nic is so cute. He’s a nerd, which I have always had a crush on. So, of course, he tickles my heart, but I have had a bad experience before, and I’m here to work, so my focus is definitely on that.”

However, Marina is “a human. I’m a woman. So, let’s see. To be continued,” she joked.

Speaking of upcoming storylines, Marina reiterated that “Tensions are getting quite high. But, there are still some subjects that were never properly addressed at the beginning of the season. They’re just ready to explode. So yeah, you guys are in for a treat. Get a popcorn and enjoy!”

The post Exclusive: Below Deck Down Under’s Marina Marcondes de Barros Teases ‘Ready to Explode’ Tensions Ahead appeared first on Reality Tea.

Another week has come and gone, making it time for our Below Deck Down Under Season 3 Episode 12 recap. “Across Frenemy Lines” brings us back to the super yacht Katina, where, starting last week, two new men are turning the tide for the exterior team. In contrast, relations between the interior team and the galley are sinking. Lara has clear visions for how things must run, so last-minute change-ups and requests are not her bag, even though this narrative is starting to frustrate Marina, Tzarina, and Captain Jason. Here is a breakdown of everything that transpired on Below Deck Down Under Season 3, Episode 12.

What happened in Below Deck Down Under Season 3 Episode 12?

Nicolas has already messed up royally, drinking with the guests during his first charter. But, unlike those who came before, Nicolas owns his mistakes. Now, Captain Jason has appreciative eyes trained on his newest deckhand, who remains safe (for now). Meanwhile, trouble is also brewing in the galley. Frustrations, pride, and misunderstood narratives are mounting, resulting in a conflict-filled episode of BDDU.

Captain Jason wants Marina in service, but Lara remains unsure

The crew awakens for another day, but Alesia remains tired. Tzarina notices.

Internally, Nicolas is struggling. He knows he messed up and that ignoring his actions might fly, yet Nicolas is not that kind of guy. As soon as he can, Nicolas plans on reporting his drunken shot to the captain.

The guests planned an excursion to a rum tasting and distillery tour, followed by a picnic lunch. A storm blows in, but this will not cancel their plans. In contrast, Captain Jason has a new plan to throw at Lara, asking her to place Marina on service during this outing. But Lara disagrees, telling her boss that Marina cannot “do service on her own.”

The camera pans to show Marina excelling solo with the guests as they eat breakfast on the sundeck. Back in the galley, Lara tells Captain Jason that Marina has never done service alone, so he asks her to give Marina a chance. In his interview, he notes that Lara needs to step outside her comfort zone.

The guests and first round of crew members (including Marina) depart, escorted away by a covered tender to help avoid the storm.

Lara and Tzarina butt heads as Nicolas comes clean with Captain Jason

Lara heads to the galley, telling Tzarina to attend the picnic lunch. Tzarina, however, notes that the dishes for this excursion only need to be unwrapped and served, so the crew members in attendance do not need her nearby. Even still, Lara is adamant that Tzarina must attend. Tzarina relents and accepts, noting that she must be back on board early to prep dinner.

Lara suggests Alesia also attend to “help build” her confidence. Heading up to the sundeck, Lara next encounters Harry. She tells Harry that something is off with Tzarina.

Nicolas practices his shots-related speech using a Pirates of the Caribbean reference. He then explains that he got into yachting courtesy of his father, a professional windsurfer and kitesurfer who now works as a captain in the Mediterranean. His equally attractive father hates rules, but as he admits, Nicolas moves oppositely. Proving this point, Nicolas heads to the wheelhouse to turn himself in.

On the excursion, Marina busts her tail to wow their charter guests. Tzarina and Alesia arrive. As Marina serves rum, Tzarina uncovers her dishes and runs. As she explains, the boat is over an hour away, so Tzarina must head back now to ensure everything runs smoothly later.

After Tzarina bolts, Adair asks Alesia if she is okay. In response, Alesia states that she can uncover dishes. This response is what Tzarina tried to state to Lara earlier. But Alesia remains bothered, and Tzarina seems to be the one she feels annoyed by.

In the wheelhouse, Nicolas tells on himself. Thankfully, Captain Jason repays his honesty with grace. His job is safe.

Tzarina returns to the yacht following the excursion, frustrated with Lara

Back onboard, Tzarina tells Lara that this excursion was the “biggest waste” of her time. Lara asks if Tzarina went before the “food got taken out?” Confused, Tzarina answers yes. In her interview, Lara quips, “I wish Tzarina had been more passionate about serving the guests lunch than serving me this sh*tty attitude.”

The guests return. They loved their expedition. Alesia heads to the galley, where Tzarina is extra quiet. Alesia wants to help, yet the only reply she gets from Tzarina is a nod and a saying that all is well.

Nicolas tells everyone what he did and how the captain reacted. This crew likes Nicolas, so everyone feels thankful he kept his gig.

Lara enters, praising Alesia for her service during the excursion. Alesia was glad to go, yet she knew a lot needed to happen back on the yacht. Lara waves her concerns away. In her talking head, Tzarina states that Lara seems to be “grooming” Alesia to turn against her in the galley.

Several beats later, Harry asks Tzarina if she and Lara are getting along. Tzarina answers that she thinks all is well, but when she asks Harry why he questioned her about this friendship, Harry fibs, telling her no one brought this to his ear.

As the guests head to the dinner table, Alesia attempts small talk with Tzarina. Tzarina answers her questions kindly, but her words are few. Alesia somewhat snaps, telling Tzarina she cannot go an entire night like this “because it’s depressing.” Tzarina looks confused but tells Alesia that she is exhausted, nothing more or less.

Nicolas has his eyes on Marina while Harry keeps his ears attuned to the drama

In the crew galley, Marina encounters Nicolas. Nicolas finds Marina “adorable,” he admits, joking in his talking head that he never approached women while growing up. Laughing, Nicolas gives God thanks for feminism because bold women helped him out with his game.

The crew lines up to grab plates from Tzarina. Tzarina goes over what the guests are about to eat so they can parrot these words back to their guests. However, her explanation is wordy, causing Lara to roll her eyes.

Alesia retreats to her cabin for a moment of silence. Shortly after, thanks to editing, the guests also head to their rooms for bed.

Alesia heads to the galley in the morning. Tzarina gives her a task, which Alesia seeks clarification on. Alesia explains that she has “no idea” what is happening in Tzarina’s head, yet she feels like she is walking on eggshells at work now. Tzarina listens, stating she will tell Alesia more moving forward.

Lurking in the next room, hearing everything, Harry smiles, amused at their low-stakes drama. On deck, Nate teaches Adair as a capable bosun should. Speaking of capable, Tzarina is in the galley, licking water from her tumbler like a competent cat. I, too, wish to lurk inside her brain.

The guests depart. They loved their charter.

Marina finds Nicolas cute, but Adair reveals a secret that gives Marina pause

While turning the boat over, Marina tells Adair that she finds Nicolas cute. But this deck/stew has a secret. Nic has already started to “party with a guest,” Adair reveals. Shocked and disappointed, Marina listens as Adair continues, telling Marina that Nicolas already confessed everything to the captain.

Once Adair gets to the part of his actual sins, AKA drinking a shot with this guest in question, Marina looks relieved. Words matter, all. In her interview, Marina labels Nic a nerd, admitting she loves his honesty.

The crew, however, does not love their 15k tip. But Nicolas treasures the disco ball helmet, which Captain Jason hands him following his authentic showings. In their talking heads, the crew also applauds Nic while joking about how he presents. Nicolas is new, but he is already a winner on BDDU.

Similarly, Harry is winning on deck. Nate makes Harry the lead deckhand.

Tzarina walks in on a heated conversation while Marina and Nicolas bring the heat to the dance floor

Bri pulls Alesia into her cabin. Once there, Lara asks Alesia how work is going. Alesia says that communication is lacking. Tzarina enters, catching their gossip session red-handed. She reflects in her confessional, slamming Lara for her “b*tchy schoolgirl attitude.”

Tzarina exits. Lara tells Alesia that a good leader cares about others. Interjecting, Alesia concedes that Tzarina does care for her.

Bri climbs into bed with Harry. A few floors above, Alesia and Nate chat in the hot tub. Nate leaves, giggling with Nicolas in their cabin about how big a fan he is of Alesia.

The crew heads out. Nicolas sits by Marina, admiring how her feet swing instead of reaching the floor. Also sitting side-by-side are Alesia and Nate, but Alesia misses Johnny, she divulges. When Alesia gets up for a smoke, Tzarina follows.

Alesia finally tells Tzarina how bothered she is. Hearing her, Tzarina explains her stressors before apologizing to Alesia. For now, the galley team is okay. Also okay are Marina and Nicolas, kissing on the dance floor as their fellow yachties cheer.

Lara approaches Alesia, asking her how her talk with Tzarina went. Alesia answers, telling her all is fine, but, as Tzarina clocked, tensions are typically high in this industry for chefs. Lara shuts this narrative down, telling Alesia, “It doesn’t have to be like that.”

Lara finds Tzarina next. Tzarina states that she has to say yes to Lara to make her back down, like with the plates issue. As Lara repeats that she was right about that, Tzarina announces that she feels “done.”

Below Deck Down Under continues Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo and streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

TELL US – WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT BELOW DECK DOWN UNDER SEASON 3 EPISODE 12? WHO DO YOU THINK IS IN THE WRONG?

The post Below Deck Down Under Season 3 Episode 12 Recap: Tzarina Stands Alone appeared first on Reality Tea.

Mickey Rourke is no longer a resident in the Celebrity Big Brother house. His statements and behaviors toward several cast members raised eyebrows, resulting in his early exit from this series. But now, his brows are curling, as Mickey is considering suing ITV and Celebrity Big Brother over his pay, which he says the network drastically reduced. This narrative has been multi-layered, with drama lurking on every level. Here is everything we know about why Mickey got the boot on this series, alongside how he hopes to recoup his losses via the courts.

Mickey Rourke was accused of homophobia after JoJo Siwa conflict on Celebrity Big Brother

Musical artist JoJo Siwa inspires many trending dance moves that I have yet to perfect. But in the Celebrity Big Brother house, we are being treated to a different side of this pop star. Following several of his off-color remarks, JoJo did her best to educate Mickey on the ins and outs of the LGBTQ community. JoJo offered Mickey grace, which, following his statements about her lifestyle, was extra big of her.

So, what did Mickey say? For starters, “Mickey asked JoJo which gender she liked, “girls or boys?” JoJo answered, saying, “Girls, noting that her partner is “non-binary.” But then, Mickey went off the rails, declaring, “If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay anymore.”

Not here for his asinine assumption, JoJo retorted, “I can guarantee I’ll still be gay.” Later in the garden, JoJo overheard Mickey speaking about voting “the lesbian out real quick.” Again speaking truths to his tainted testaments, JoJo called Mickey out, citing this reason as being “homophobic.”

Not catching any clues, Mickey next stated that he needed “a f**,” AKA a cigarette. But then, this misstepping man turns towards JoJo, saying, “I’m not talking to you.” Having had enough, JoJo removed herself from Mickey, finding comfort in her housemate, Chris Hughes.

Finally, Big Brother enters the chat, telling Mickey that his “language was offensive and unacceptable. As a result, Big Brother is giving you a formal warning. Further language or behavior of this nature could lead to your removal from the Big Brother house.” Understanding (maybe), Mickey apologized to JoJo, who remains rightfully irked by their interactions in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Celebrity Big Brother kicked Mickey Rourke off the show after Chris Hughes confrontation and sexual comments towards Ella Rae Wise

Unfortunately, Big Brother failed to temper Mickey or his antics. Following his remarks to JoJo, Mickey found himself in hot water yet again. This time, Mickey made sexually inappropriate “jokes” to Ella Rae Wise. And, as expected, his “jokes” failed to land.

When Ella asked Mickey to “come with me,” it felt like a sexual lightbulb seemingly blinked on in his head. So, her houseguest Mickey responded, asking, “Come in, you?” Then, Mickey dared to laugh, calling this line a gag. His audacity, however, made Ella (and all women everywhere) uneasy.

Several beats later, during a pirate-themed task, Trisha Goddard called Chris a “rat.” Speaking like a pirate, Mickey joined in, also calling Chris a rat. When Chris gave him the stinkeye in return, Mickey took Chris seriously, responding with a verbal tirade that felt as if it might turn physical at any moment. Cue Big Brother bringing Mickey to the Diary Room (again), where they promptly ejected him from the house.

Thankfully, Mickey apologized for his behavior before leaving the Celebrity Big Brother house. However, following his early exit, Mickey feels financially slighted by this series. This novel brings us to our final chapter, explaining why Mickey is now considering a fight with the network.

Mickey Rourke is considering a lawsuit against Celebrity Big Brother bosses

Mickey is now seeing red. Allegedly, he was only one day away from receiving a hefty paycheck from ITV for his appearance on Celebrity Big Brother. Kimberly Hines, his rep, states that Mickey was “unjustly” denied this paycheck. Kimberly also claims that the producers deliberately removed Mickey from the house right before his contract made him eligible to grab these funds.

Mickey also felt frustrated with his accommodations. Kimberly states that Mickey and his team were supposed to receive first-class hotel rooms when they got to London. So, Mickey racked up a $50,000 bill, later learning he would only get reimbursed $300 a night.

In his defense, Kimberly explained that the producers of Celebrity Big Brother were well aware that Mickey behaved erratically. They knew he was a loose cannon, and Mickey gave them the drama they wanted in return. But, all Mickey received after his exit was “barely a ride to the airport.”

According to Kimberly, Mickey might soon lawyer up in the UK. He wants his money, and when he receives it, he plans on putting this entire CBB experience behind him. Moving forward, Mickey hopes to shift gears, focusing on making “quality films” alongside his “final comeback” to Hollywood. So, there’s that.

Celebrity Big Brother is streaming on ITVX.

Season 7 of Real Housewives of Miami is soon landing on Bravo. No, the network has not yet released the premiere date for this series. But yes, you can still consider us eager and ready for the announcement. We have gathered every detail we could find about this series, which we will share now.

Real Housewives of Miami (RHOM) Season 7 cast

• Alexia Nepola
• Larsa Pippen
• Lisa Hochstein
• Guerdy Abraira
• Julia Lemigova
• Adriana de Moura
• Marysol Patton
• Kiki Barth
• Stephanie Shojaee

Season 7 of RHOM will feature seven returning faces, as noted above. Sadly, Dr. Nicole Martin decided to sit this one out. After welcoming her second child, Nicole battled postpartum anxiety. Filming would only add further emotional stressors to her already full plate, so fans understand and heartily support her self-imposed exit.

Taking her vacated (for now) spot this season is newbie Stephanie Shojaee. Stephanie is a real estate developer in Miami, where she was born and raised. At her side on RHOM is her husband, Masoud Shojaee.

Masoud built the Shoma Group, a multibillion-dollar real estate firm in South Florida, from the ground up. When Stephanie entered the equation, she worked alongside her man to expand the reach of their firm in their state. Now, Stephanie is the President of this firm.

Real Housewives of Miami cast updates: What’s happened since Season 6?

After the curtains closed on RHOM Season 6, cast updates began sounding. Here are the details of what your favorite (or least loved) stars have been up to in the year that just passed.

Last month, Alexia finalized her divorce from Todd Nepola following three years of marriage. Rumor has it, however, these two are still an item. We can expect to hear more about this in Season 7.

Kiki teased she was dating a new man last year. This year, she remains private about his identity on her socials, so we are unsure where this relationship currently lies.

Adriana dropped four new singles after RHOM Season 6 wrapped. Speaking to her local news outlet, Adriana revealed that two of these bops are love stories. One was inspired by her boyfriend, and the other by her dog.

Marysol lost her mother, Mama Elsa, several years ago. Grief is a process. But now, Marysol feels ready to sell her property.

Larsa will return with a new man on her arm this season. And yes, this man is an NBA star, per usual. Welcome to RHOM, Jeff Coby.

Meanwhile, Julia, her farm, and her wife, tennis star Martina Navratilova, are thriving. For years, Julia and Martina spoke about their adoption desires. Last year, their wishes came true. Two boys have joined their family, and viewers are eager to see this unfold on RHOM.

Last but not least, Lisa is still dating Jody Glidden. And Guerdy remains cancer-free.

What has the Real Housewives of Miami cast teased about Season 7?

Nothing sells a series like its cast. Experts at their jobs, some of these ladies have teased several narratives about what we can expect to watch in Season 7. From the sounds of it, this season will be action-packed.

Starting with Adriana, “This season has a lot of twists and turns, a lot of unexpected things that even I wasn’t expecting,” she admitted. But, “On a personal level, there is some conflict with friends that I thought I was friends with, maybe not …  the typical cattiness of Housewives,” Adriana teased. Interesting.

Stephanie is new, but she is already clocking in with her tea. In an interview with Bravo’s The Daily Dish, Stephanie called her inaugural season a “rollercoaster ride,” joking, “Oh my gosh, I did not know what to expect going into this, but I [feel] blown away in every sense of the word.”

While Andy Cohen is not a star in this series, he still has something to say about Season 7. “Miami is in the middle of shooting an absolute blow-away season,” he teased, saying nothing more, which, boo.

Real Housewives of Miami (RHOM) Season 7 predictions

As soon as their cameras went up to film RHOM Season 7, headlines started forming. One headline included a cell phone-captured leak showcasing a video of Adriana and Julia arguing. “I see you for who you are, toxic, and now I’m going to treat you how you treat me,” Adriana can be heard shouting. We predict the obvious, meaning Adriana and Julia will bring the heat on Bravo.

Speaking of failed friendships, the once-close Guerdy and Julia are also at odds this season. According to headlines and confirmations from her cast, things will get so heated that Julia will pour a drink over Guerdy’s head. However, we will remain cautiously optimistic, predicting that by the end of RHOM Season 7, Guerdy and Julia will make peace.

Like us, fans have gathered on Reddit to share their predictions for this upcoming season. Many feel that Julia will grow closer to Alexia and Marysol. On the other end of the couch might sit Adriana, Guerdy, and Lisa. Likewise, Larsa and Stephanie will bond as Kiki continues being friendly with everyone, floating in between friends group as only she can.

We co-sign with these predictions. Bring on RHOM Season 7.

Real Housewives of Miami is streaming on Peacock. It can also be viewed on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

Khloé Kardashian makes headlines for a living. Her whole family does, as The Kardashians have actively filmed their lives for our consumption(s) since 2007. Many of these headlines have been shocking. But, sadly, as Khloé just revealed, some of these bylines have even come from inside her house, as various members of her team have been less than discreet with her deeply personal narratives. Allegedly.

Did Khloé Kardashian’s therapist leak personal info?

Khloé recently appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast. Here, Khloé opened up about many things, from ex-partners to the headlines that found her not well. But when asked, “Lie or not. Your therapist exposed your personal details to the tabloids?” Khloé immediately responded, saying, “True. I know. Rude.”

After agreeing that this was rude, host Alex Cooper asked Khloé if she ever confronted “that person [to] get closure?” Khloé answered no, explaining that this leak happened while she was in couples therapy with her now ex-husband. “People always ask, why didn’t I press charges?” Khloé admitted, but pressing charges is “not [her] thing,” she noted.

Nevertheless, Khloé knows “who you are and what you did,” she stressed. Then, Khloé dropped another bombshell. A different inside leak formed while she and her ex, Lamar Odom, were “trying to get pregnant.”

“I was doing IVF, and that doctor or a nurse, I can’t say which one, because I don’t know,” was a leaker, Khloé confessed. According to Khloé, this medically trained human “released” her “IVF records to the press, and that is a violation of HIPAA law as well,” Khloé accurately clocked.

Unfortunately, these two narratives rocked Khloé to her core. “The therapy thing really messed with me,” Khloé disclosed. Therefore, she “took a break from therapy for a long time. I now have a new therapist, but it took at least ten years to trust someone again,” Khloé ended.

Khloé Kardashian recently recalled a life-changing incident with her ex-husband, Lamar Odom. While married, Khloé caught Lamar cheating on her at a motel. Her reaction to his antics was extreme, resulting in a case of bloody knuckles and a diagnosis of morning-after deflections. Now, Khloé is spilling the tea on this never-aired storyline, and we have the details.

Khloé Kardashian found Lamar Odom cheating with another woman

Khloé appeared on the April 16 episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast. Here, she opened up about this trifling period of tribulations, explaining that she caught her then-husband with a youngish woman in a motel. Immediately, Khloé “started going ballistic.”

“We were married. [Lamar] was doing his thing, and he went down to some motel in Downtown L.A. and was with a girl,” Khloé began, noting that this unidentified female was around 26 years old.

Being Khloé, she tracked her then-man down, finding out what room Lamar was in. “I saw in the window that [he] and this girl were … they were either naked or she was in lingerie, something like that,” Khloé said. So, Khloé “knocked on the door. They answered it for some reason, and I just started going ballistic,” she admitted.

The following day, Khloé wrapped her hands in bandanas as she had to attend a cowboy-themed birthday party for her niece. “My knuckles were all bloody and gross, and I just had bandanas wrapped around [them],” Khloé stated. She then joked that her makeshift bandages matched the theme for this Country Western-themed event, where she “acted as if nothing ever happened,” never saying “a thing” to her friends or family members in attendance.

As for Lamar, he “could not understand how [Khloé] knew where he was.” But Khloé did not “give a sh*t.” She also decided not to tell “anybody anything” about this event (until now).

Michelle Lally is still sorting through her divorce from Jesse Lally on The Valley Season 2. As Michelle navigates this messy storyline, she has a new man, Aaron Nosler, at her side. While love stories are usually fun, the relationship between Aaron and Michelle has already raised a few eyebrows on Bravo.

In Season 1, Kristen Doute alleged that Michelle had “a f*cking boyfriend for a year.” Kristen did not reveal a name, but Jesse also had a tale to tell. According to Jesse, Michelle cheated on him with an unnamed Hollywood movie director. Aaron is not in the entertainment business, but is he the guy Kristen mentioned in Season 1?

On The Valley, during Seasons 1 and 2 (so far), Michelle insisted that she never cheated on Jesse. However, in the Season 2 premiere, Jesse admitted that Kristen “was right about almost everything” she said about Michelle in Season 1. Therefore, this claim will resurface as The Valley Season 2 progresses.

Since Aaron is starring in Season 2, let us detail everything we know about this man.

What does Michelle Lally’s boyfriend Aaron Nosler do for a living?

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who TF is Aaron? As stated on his Instagram bio, Aaron is a financial advisor and director at Thrivent, a financial firm offering “financial advice, investments, insurance, banking, and generosity programs and solutions.”

On the side, Aaron also sells organic white honey. When not at work, Aaron is likely off volunteering with the non-profit organization Kids Hope USA. 

Unlike Michelle, Aaron does not have any children. However, Aaron has formed a sweet bond with Isabella, whom Michelle shares custody of with Jesse. Isabella is the sole reason Michelle and Aaron are even a thing.

When did Michelle Lally and Aaron Nosler go public with their relationship?

Last April, Michelle hinted that she was dating “someone amazing” via an ask-me-anything-style story on Instagram. During a May 16 Instagram Live, Michelle revealed more, explaining that she met Aaron at a local coffee shop after Isabella began waving at him, a then-stranger.

“They had a little interaction from far away,” which Michelle failed to see, she said. But then Michelle and Aaron crossed paths many more times, and the rest is history. Aaron then joined Michelle on this Live, describing their meeting as “the cutest love story of all time.”

On June 17, 2025, Michelle posted her first image with Aaron on Instagram. “Date night” was her caption, penned on a photograph of her and her (tagged) man, Aaron, walking on the red carpet for The Bikeriders film premiere. A year has now passed and this romance is serious. Michelle is thankful for Aaron following her split from Jesse.

Michelle Lally is leaning on boyfriend Aaron Nosler through divorce from Jesse Lally

Michelle and Jesse officially separated in October 2023. Season 1 of The Valley premiered in 2024. As Season 1 aired, we saw Michelle and Jesse living in different chapters of their lives, so it made sense that this couple decided to confirm their split just ahead of their premiere last March.

A few months after her separation from Jesse, Aaron, a then-casual neighborhood friend, checked in on Michelle. As Michelle explained on her Live, he was also going through a break-up, so their bond was tight, resulting in their first date. After making things official, Aaron has popped up everywhere at Michelle’s side, including additional IG lives, podcasts, and now, Season 2 of The Valley. Hopefully, Aaron will continue standing strong once the drama hits him from every angle in this series.

As The Valley Season 2 airs, Jesse and Michelle will encounter co-parenting follies and rumors, particularly the one Kristen first spilled in Season 1. Was Michelle cheating on Jesse with Aaron? Michelle swears not, but Jesse remains uncertain (for now).

The Valley Season 2: What has Michelle Lally said about boyfriend Aaron Nosler and ex Jesse Lally?

During the Season 2 premiere, Brittany Cartwright threw a summertime white-themed party to celebrate her newfound freedom from Jax Taylor. While in attendance, Michelle and Jesse got into their first filmed fight of the season. Jesse purposely pushed every button Michelle had, and his efforts worked, as Michelle felt beyond frustrated with her ex.

As Jesse stressed that Michelle would never receive full custody of Isabella, Michelle disagreed. Then, in her confessional, Michelle declared that Jesse “will do whatever it takes to hurt” her and “ruin her life.” In real-time, Michelle tossed the dreaded court systems back at Jesse, letting him know that he could make every plan he wanted, but ultimately, “the courts will decide” their fates.

Speaking of fates, Jesse also let Michelle know that Aaron was overstepping. Aaron should not be handing out parenting advice and/or quips to either party, argued Jesse. Instead, matters involving Isabella are up to Jesse and Michelle alone.

Both Michelle and Jesse are right. But both parties are also petty. What could go wrong?

Nevertheless, Michelle is smitten with Aaron, calling him “the polar opposite [of Jesse]. He doesn’t talk down to me. It’s just so nice,” Michelle told Brittany in Episode 1 of Season 2. In her talking head, Michelle further expressed, “I just felt a very genuine person and heart, and I never had that feeling with Jesse.”

What does Jesse Lally think of wife Michelle Lally’s boyfriend Aaron Nosler?

Thankfully, Jesse (sometimes) wants to play nicely for the sake of their daughter. Around the time of filming for Season 2, Jesse appeared on Watch What Happens Live. While talking to Andy Cohen, Jesse had many positive things to say about Michelle and Aaron.

“I have [met Aaron], and I like him,” Jesse said, adding, “I invited him and Michelle over for Isabella’s fourth birthday party two or three weeks ago, and they were the last to leave. It was nice.”

When Season 2 debuted, Jesse had a much-needed heart-to-heart conversation with Kristen. He is on “an evolution of growth,” Jesse announced, impressing Kristen, his newest cheerleader. Then, Jesse admitted that seeing his ex with her new boyfriend was “not [a] comfortable” experience.

“It’s like the families are separate. Now, it’s going to be Team Jesse or Team Michelle. It’s already happening,” Jesse worried. Kristen replied, declaring herself as “Team Jesse.”

However, at some point this season, Aaron and Jesse will bond. Through her now-expired Instagram stories, which Bravo captured, Michelle reshared an image of Jesse sitting on Aaron’s lap. The boys are smiling, and their arms are wrapped around each other’s necks.

The Valley is streaming on Peacock. It can also be seen in the UK and Ireland on Hayu.
