Brandi Glanville: My Face is ‘Sinking’ Again! I Thought I Was Cured!

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Everyone wishes that this were a happier update.

Two years ago, Brandi Glanville’s face-melting mystery began. She spent a small fortune consulting doctors.

She thought that she’d finally found the bizarre cause: ruptured, moldy breast implants.

Now, Brandi says, she’s been able to rule it out. Her symptoms are back. And, this time, she’s not the only patient.

‘Now it’s sinking in again’

Late last week, Brandi used her Unfiltered podcast to share a grim health update.

“I have to give an update on my face because I got a lot of comments,” she admitted to her cohost and audience.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with me, guys,” she admitted.

“I thought I was fixed,” she grimly shared, “and then it happened again.”

Brandi elaborated, describing her face: “And now it’s sinking in again.”

“If I had answers, I would tell you,” Brandi promised.

She advised her listeners: “I’ve been to a million doctors.”

(As we have previously reported, Brandi began her extensive medical journey back in 2024, sharing her mystery ailment late that year.)

She detailed that being out in the sun — in many ways, something bad for your skin — has helped her.

Additionally, she had taken parasite medication and has undertaken a “parasite diet.” Brandi did not share many details on these stopgap measures.

‘We don’t know what’s going on’

“I don’t have answers,” Brandi then repeated.

“Is there a doctor that specializes in parasites?” she asked. “Because I can’t find one.”

Brandi lamented: “I’ve been to a thousand dermatologists.”

She added: “So anyway, we don’t know what’s going on but I’m here to get to the bottom of it.”

When facing a medical mystery, it often helps to remember that one is not alone.

In this case, Brandi knows that she is not alone.

According to the former Real Housewife, she has been in conversation with two women who have similar symptoms.

The three of them are coordinating their experiences over DMs, and they hope to find a cause and a cure.

“All three of us had a lot of dental work,” Brandi specified, “we all had black mold poisoning in the past.”

She summarized: “So we are texting each other.” We hope that they find a solution soon!

Andy Cohen: There Could Be a Transgender Real Housewife, But …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

The Real Housewives franchise has definitely grown and improved over the years.

But is a transgender Housewife in its future?

Bravo has featured trans cast members before, but the majority of Housewives have been straight and white — and, to date, all have been cisgender.

Andy Cohen says that a trans Housewife could happen. But only on one condition.

Could there be a trans Housewife some day?

On Friday, June 5, the quintessential Bravolebrity won a Variety’s Creative Impact in TV Award at the Newport Beach TV Festival.

There, he took a question about whether a transgender woman will ever be a Housewife on any part of the franchise.

Andy started his answer by saying that he would not “plant” a trans woman on the cast of any Housewives show.

Bravo has, in the past, attempted to “shake up” casts with specific types of people joining the casts. This has gone over well sometimes, and backfired other times.

Andy would prefer for a trans woman to become a Housewife organically.

“I think if there was a trans Housewife who was friends with other Housewives, that would be the way,” Andy proposed.

“You wouldn’t want it to be stunt,” he explained.

Stunt casting can negatively impact the show, the audience, and especially the person cast.

“You know, you wouldn’t want it to be, like, ‘Let’s cast into this,'” Andy reasoned.

He emphasized: “If someone was friends with that person then that would be great.”

Which Housewife might bring a trans ‘Friend of’ onto the franchise?

A number of Housewives have first been a “Friend of” before joining the franchise as a Full Housewife.

But who would most likely have a trans friend who wants to appear on reality TV?

Andy admitted that he has “no clue.”

Bravo has cast other LGBTQ+ cast members, from Jenna Lyons to Racquel Chevremont to Brandi Glanville.

And those are just Housewives. Heather Dubrow has a trans son. Vanderpump Rules debuted Billie Lee, a trans woman, back in 2017.

While trans Housewives could be in the franchise’s future, fans hoping for men — be they trans or cisgender — should probably not expect to have their wishes granted.

“You know, I’ve talked about this, but, in an early season of ‘Jersey’ there was a conversation about maybe casting” a man, Andy recalled.

“Caroline and Dina [Manzo] have a gay brother [Jaime Laurita], and there was, like, a moment where we were flirting with that idea,” he described.

“I mean, look, I think that in terms of casting a gay guy on the show,” Andy reasoned, “this is a show about women and celebrating women, so, I think we leave it there.”

That makes sense. There have been shows that are unofficially what if Housewives but gay men, with varying levels of success. But Housewives follows women … even if “celebrating women” might be a bit of a stretch.

Kyle Cooke Reportedly Getting Serious With Salley Carson Following Amanda Batula Split

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Well, that didn’t take long.

Just months after his split from Amanda Batula became public, Summer House star Kyle Cooke is reportedly spending time with another familiar face from the Bravo universe.

According to multiple sources, Cooke and Southern Charm star Salley Carson have been hooking up. And the relationship might be getting serious.

A source close to the situation tells Us Weekly that while the romance is still new, there’s undeniable chemistry between the pair.

“It’s new and casual, but he’s really into her and they’ve been having fun,” says the insider.

“They’ve only hung out a few times but get along really well. They have a lot of chemistry.”

On Friday, Kyle and Salley were reportedly spotted hanging out in a bar in Charleston.

“The group appeared to be getting along,” said one witness. “They have chemistry. It looked like they had fun and enjoyed each other’s company.”

A post shared by Kyle Cooke (@imkylecooke)

The rumors have been bubbling beneath the surface for months, but they gained new momentum after Kyle addressed questions about Salley during the latest installment of the Summer House Season 10 reunion.

When host Andy Cohen asked whether anything had happened between them, Kyle initially seemed reluctant to confirm the rumors. But his castmates weren’t about to let him off the hook.

Lindsay Hubbard and Ciara Miller claimed that he made out with Salley “on the night of the Summer House premiere,” but Kyle noted that the hookup actually happened the night before.

Ciara Miller noted that she immediately contacted Amanda after learning about the makeout sesh because she found the situation so surprising.

“When I found that out, I immediately called Amanda [Batula], and I told her that Kyle was making out with Salley, and I thought that that was crazy,” Ciara explained.

“I thought it was absurd. It’s insane. I’m just making an example of how good of a friend I was to you and how you’re a friend to me. I just want to point that out.”

These days, of course, Amanda is dating West Wilson, Ciara’s ex-boyfriend — hence why she’s stressing what a loyal friend she was to Batula.

A post shared by Salley Carson ♡ (@salleycarson)

At the time, Kyle and Amanda were already separated, though much of the fallout from their marriage was still playing out publicly.

Now, sources say Kyle and Salley have continued seeing each other.

An insider told Us Weekly that the two have hung out several times and that Kyle is “really into” Salley. Another source described the situation as casual for now but noted that the pair appear to genuinely enjoy each other’s company.

The rumors have only intensified amid reports that Kyle may have traveled to Charleston and even met Salley’s parents, though neither star has publicly confirmed that claim.

Of course, Bravo fans know that Kyle has also been linked to other reality stars since his breakup. During the reunion, he addressed reports involving former Real Housewives of Orange County star Meghan King, insisting that their interaction amounted to little more than a brief kiss and conversation.

Meanwhile, neither Salley nor Kyle has officially labeled their relationship.

But between the reunion revelations, the public sightings, and the growing number of insider reports, it’s safe to say that fans will be watching closely to see whether this Bravo crossover becomes something more serious.

Donald Trump Flips Out Over California Vote Count in ‘Rigged Election’ & …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Late in the weekend, a glimmer of hope arose from the City of Angels.

The election isn’t until November. But as more primary votes have come in, it looks like Spencer Pratt is losing.

However, some who are less pleased with this development are beginning to spin conspiracy theories about the votes.

The loudest voice among them belongs to none other than Donald Trump.

‘It’s happening again right now in California’

California is America’s largest state by population. Voting is a slow, deliberate process.

Because the state operates with a top-two voting system, all candidates are on the ballot in the primary. The two with the most votes will then face off in the general election this autumn.

After the first day of voting, with only a portion of votes tallied, incumbent Mayor Karen Bass was in the lead, with Spencer Pratt behind her, and progressive city council member Nithya Raman in third — and thus seemingly out of the race.

However, over the weekend, she surged ahead. With 83 percent of ballots counted, Raman surged to second place with 27.1 percent of the vote, over Pratt’s 26.7.

Ultimately, either party could end up facing Bass — who currently has 34.7 percent of the vote — in the general election.

On the Sunday, June 7 episode of Meet The Press, Trump repeated his proven lies about the 2020 election.

He then went on to claim that “it’s happening again right now in California.”

Trump claimed that Republican candidates were “dropping fast because it’s a rigged election.”

Welker repeatedly asked for evidence, but he simply claimed: “All I have to do is look.” That is, of course, not evidence.

“Do you think it’s appropriate that they have an election, and five days later, they’re nowhere close to picking a winner?” Trump asked.

What's so funny about this is that for people who actually live in LA, Nithya is one of the few council member names people actually know because they've heard that name for years.

‘You’re either crooked or you’re stupid’

Welker’s attempt to explain how California’s voting process worked did not seem to interest him.

“No they’re crooked, just like you’re crooked, your press is crooked,” Trump accused without merit. “Meet the Press is crooked. And so is ABC. And CBS. And CNN.”

Projecting as hard as ever, Trump declared: “You’re either crooked or you’re stupid — you play right into their hands.”

He claimed: “You know that these elections are rigged, your network knows that they’re rigged.”

Trump continued to complain, yelling: “You’re a one-sided crooked network. Let’s call it quits because I’ve had enough.” And with that, he ended the interview.

As noted M&M’s enjoyer Tucker Carlson might ask: What’s happening? What’s going on?

It might be tempting to say that some people are believing conspiratorial nonsense because the California voting system is slow and cautious. There’s more to it than that, however.

Others might posit that to Trump and many like him, if they win, it’s fair, and if they lose, it’s because someone cheated. That may be an accurate depiction of how they see the world, but it isn’t ultimately the whole story.

While those are both factors, perhaps the biggest issue is that, if you aren’t familiar with how things work, everything looks like a conspiracy.

Scammers — as many have characterized Spencer Pratt, who has no known qualifications to hold office — thrive on identifying a problem and proposing a fake, yet easy-sounding solution to that problem.

For now, those of us who aren’t descending into a conspiratorial abyss can just wait for the rest of the primary votes to be tallied. And for the 1 out of every 11 Americans who lives there, they’ll also need to vote in November.

Maitland Ward Slams Sydney Sweeney’s ‘Disgusting’ OnlyFans Scene on …

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Even if you’ve never watched a single second of the show, you’ve probably heard about Sydney Sweeney’s OnlyFans storyline on Euphoria Season 3.

Sydney’s character, Cassie, is seen filming increasingly outrageous content as she builds her following and gains financial freedom.

One scene in particular — in which Sydney is seen wearing a diaper and acting like a baby — has received especially harsh criticism.

The scene has gained backlash not only from viewers who were caught off guard, but also from adult content creators who say it badly misrepresents their profession.

One such creator is Maitland Ward, the former mainstream actress who now makes her living in the adult industry.

“There’s all sorts of stuff that you can’t do,” Ward said in a recent interview with TMZ, adding:

“The whole child-baby thing is so disgusting … You just can’t go into that whole underage thing like that. I mean, you can do it to an extent if it’s very, very playful, like, you’re an adult being childlike or something. But just the way it was handled was so gross, and it’s just disgusting and vile.”

She further explained, “You don’t want pedophilia anywhere near pornography.”

Ward went on to allege that Euphoria “is making fun of OnlyFans creators” rather than “celebrating” them.

A post shared by Maitland Ward Baxter (@maitlandward)

“It’s saying how weird and creepy they are,” she said. “There’s so many creators who are really working hard to build their brands every day, and this is really disingenuous.”

Ward went on to blast Euphoria, its writers, and even Sydney herself for denigrating sex workers:

“Sydney Sweeney’s portrayal of an OnlyFans creator is setting sex workers real individuals with lives, families, and jobs back by making a mockery not only of what they choose to do with their bodies and lives, but of them as human beings,” she said, adding:

“This show is treating sex work like a circus act, a freak show. And of course, they use the traditional blonde, boobie-bimbo stereotype who will do anything for money and a jolt of fame, including posing as a dog licking a bowl and serving up pedophilia fantasies, as the one who goes into sex work.

“Because, of course, you couldn’t go into sex work unless you were deranged on some level and without standards.This only reinforces the false and harmful stereotypes that sex workers have to fight against every day. It’s completely out of touch.”

And while Euphoria is only a TV show, and Cassie’s story is mainly played for laughs, Ward says these kinds of portrayals can have damaging real-world consequences:

“I know it’s ridiculous, but a lot of people already believe these things about sex workers, and this only reinforces those harmful stereotypes,” she said. “Sex work is treated like a joke — some odd sideshow that’s fun to use for laughs and clickbait. Hollywood does it again.”

Vanessa Bryant Pregnant: The Rumor & The Truth

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Vanessa Bryant has faced speculation that she is pregnant.

More than six years after her family faced an unthinkable tragedy, she of course has every right to live her life.

Even as she honors those she lost, her family might one day grow again.

But is she actually pregnant, as the rumors claim? Here’s what we know:

The rumor: Vanessa Bryant is pregnant

Last year, rumors that Vanessa Bryant might be pregnant emerged — at first, seemingly out of nowhere.

The beloved widow is 43 years old, so a pregnancy is likely very possible. But where did these rumors originate?

As the days continued, it became clear that these theorists were pointing to specific images in which she might be concealing a baby bump.

Of course, with no clear timeline on the pics, fans weren’t sure what to make of it.

Obviously, some were quick to rush to congratulate Vanessa Bryant for allegedly being pregnant.

As we here at THG have repeatedly stressed, the time to talk to someone about their pregnancy is when they tell you that they are pregnant, or when you see the baby crowning.

Standard social politeness means never jumping the gun on this kind of alleged development.

Clearly, enough people were jumping to conclusions for Bryant to see the rumor. And she issued a response.

So what is the truth?

In a recent Instagram Story, Vanessa addressed the rumors directly.

“Can you guys decide already…..,” Vanessa wrote, adding:

“Am I pregnant for the 100th time or am I getting remarried???”

We can see shey she might be feeling annoyed. After all, this is not the first time she’s been forced to address these rumors.

(Instagram)

On June 1 of 2025, Vanessa Bryant took to her Instagram Story to debunk the claim that she is pregnant.

And she got a little help from Rihanna. Sort of.

As you can see in the screenshot, she decided to hit back at the claims, writing:

“Me protecting my peace, not pregnant & having fun all summer.”

Taking to her Instagram Story, Vanessa Bryant debunked pregnancy rumors. (Image Credit: Instagram)

Bryant used a string of classic Rihanna paparazzi photos in which the phenomenal singer was carrying a drink and wearing snorkeling gear — and had opted to flip the bird at photographers who were capturing her summer fun.

The message is clear: Vanessa Bryant is not pregnant and has no plans to become pregnant (at the very least, for the duration of the summer, which begins on the night of June 20 and ends in the afternoon of September 22).

Additionally, she’s clearly — albeit by proxy — flipping the bird at people who are hassling her with rumors.

Especially given that pregnancy rumors so often carry an undercurrent of body-shaming. Enough is enough.

This is an understandably sensitive topic

Despite the online chatter about Baby #5, Vanessa Bryant has only welcomed four children.

Natalia is 23. Bianka is 9. Capri is 6.

Gianna was in her early teens when she tragically passed away alongside her father, Kobe Bryant, in early 2020.

Shania Twain Divorced After Cheating Scandal: Her Marriage History, Explained

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Is Shania Twain divorced?

The country megastar has been enjoying a resurgence in popularity in recent years, and a new generation of fans is curious about her past.

Given how many of her classic ballads touch on the topic of heartbreak, we suppose it’s no surprise that yes, Shania is divorced.

And in the style of sad country songs everywhere, her first marriage ended because of an affair.

Shania Twain Divorced Mutt Lange After She Caught Him Cheating

Yes, Shania parted ways with legendary music producer Mutt Lange after she caught him having an affair with her best friend, Marie-Anne Thiébaud.

Bur Shania had the last laugh, as she’s currently married to Marie-Anne’s former husband, Frederic Thiébaud.

Shania spoke about her divorce during a recent episode of the “Great Company With Jamie Laing” podcast.

“Forgiveness is in the family of letting go. But forgiveness, more specifically for me anyway, is not about forgetting necessarily,” she said.

“It’s about understanding the other person, and that might mean that they’re wrong … Maybe you believe forever that whatever they did was wrong,” Shania continued, adding:

“Do I hate my ex-husband for making a mistake? No. It’s his mistake. Not my mistake.”

Shania Twain Says She’s Moved On From Painful First Marriage

“So sad for him that he made such a great mistake that he has to live with. And I don’t know what that is, but it’s not … That’s not my weight,” she continued.

“My father’s a better example, OK, because this is someone that I totally forgive.”

Shania has spoken previously about the abuse she endured as a child and her long journey toward forgiving her stepfather.

In an earlier interview on the “Armchair Expert” podcast, Shania said that when they both learned their spouses had cheated, her now-husband handled the news much better than she did.

“He was so thoughtful about it all … It was not cool with him, but he was smarter about it,” she said.

“I was uncontrollably fragile over it, which I had never felt before ever because I thought for once I was stable,” Shania added.

“I really believe that I’m safe. So that really devastated me I think more than any other instability I’ve ever felt,” Twain added at the time.

Fortunately, Shania found her happy ending, and she and Frederic are still going strong.

To paraphrase one of Twain’s best-known songs, Frederic is clearly still the one!
