Meagan Good Says Whoopi Goldberg Gave Her Advice About Divorce

It came as a surprise to fans when Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin announced their divorce. The pair met while filming a movie in 2011, and by 2012, they were exchanging vows. However, they unexpectedly announced their split and divorced in 2021. Good and Franklin have only spoken kindly about one another since the breakup, and during a visit to The View, the actress shed light on her divorce.

“I’ve learned a lot about myself. I’ve rediscovered myself in a lot of ways,” said Good. She also praised Whoopi Goldberg for being there for her during the trying time.

“Also, I gotta say again, Whoopi was very instrumental in that, because we had some really good conversations I needed to have that were illuminating for me and eye-opening for me.”

The actress also spoke about being excited about her future.

“I’m like, ‘All right, Lord, if you allowed it, what’s next, Dad?’” she further shared. “It’s exciting for me low-key. I feel like I get to start my life over in some ways and have a second chance at whatever’s supposed to be next.”

“I’m really embracing that, excited about it. I don’t know what to expect, and that’s kind of amazing.”

Meanwhile, Franklin has been pressing forward. He visited Red Table Talk, where he discussed the “painful” reality of divorce.

“It changes everything…. I just bought a piece of property, first piece of property. In the contract: ‘DeVon Franklin, an unmarried man,’” he said. “I might’ve well broken down. Because I never saw this moment.”

T.I. Addresses Criticism Of His Son King Harris: “We All Got Badass Kids!”

T.I.’s son, King Harris, grew up in front of the world during the height of the rapper’s musical career. He first introduced himself on Family Hustle when he was in elementary school but since then, his formative years have been in the spotlight which means that any and all mistakes he makes are under a microscope.

King Harris has found himself getting in trouble with the law, and also facing backlash for aligning himself with the streets. However, T.I. explained that his son has only acted up because he didn’t want to live off of the success of his parents.

“I have excellent communication with all my kids. I try to listen as much as I speak to them. [King’s] position is, ‘I just don’t want to be celebrities’ kid. I don’t want to live off of y’all’s success. I don’t wanna have to just be in y’all’s shadow,’” Tip told Shannon Sharpe on Club Shay Shay.

“[King] wants a clean slate. I try to tell him he’ll never have that,” T.I. continued. “You were born with it. You can’t give it back… I love him and I understand he has a strong sense of moral standards and integrity.”

Due to King’s actions, T.I. often faces backlash for his parenting skills. Still, he pointed out that he’s absolutely not the only parents who have to deal with their child’s behavioral issues. For any family with more than three children, T.I explained that there’s bound to be at least one child that goes against the grain.

“As much criticism I received about my son, I would like to shed light on the fact – we all got badass kids! They can seem like I’m the only one on here who got badass kids,” he said.

Last year, police arrested King Harris for not wearing his seatbelt in a car. However, Tip addressed the situation, claiming his son will be locked up if his behavior doesn’t change.

Omarion Dodges Nia Long Questions In Awkward Exchange With Paparazzi

She’s newly single and it’s unclear if she’s ready to mingle, but all eyes have been on Nia Long. The actress ended her 13-year relationship with Boston Celtics coach Ime Udoka following an explosive cheating scandal that rocked the franchise. She remained silent through the pop culture chatter, but now, Long is back to promote not one but two film projects.

Long has been busy jet-setting from red carpets for Missing and You People, to popping up in Dubai with Terrence J. At the You People premiere in Los Angeles, she ran into Omarion as photographers captured their interaction. The innocent exchange turned into a viral moment after the former B2K singer shared a post on social media.

Omarion added a simple smiling face emoji to the brief clip. Quickly, as social media users often do, rumors began swirling online about some romance—or sneaky link. Long returned to join in with the laughs and made it clear that she’s a single woman.

More recently, while traveling through LAX, Omarion was spotted by the paparazzi. Of course, they questioned him about his moment with the veteran actress. The singer was quick to shut down speculation about them dating.

The cameraperson noted that Omarion was “putting the fire out, right here, right now.”

“Well, I wouldn’t say that,” Omarion replied. The photog assumed, “Oh, so there’s a little bit of a window.” O answered, “I didn’t say that. I didn’t say anything.”

It was clear that the paparazzo was looking for a soundbite to roll with, but Omarion wasn’t budging. “I just met her on the red carpet,” he added.

Check out the awkward exchange above.

Khloé Kardashian Honours Tristan Thompson’s Late Mom With Emotional IG Tribute

Tristan Thompson and Khloé Kardashian have endured no shortage of rollercoasters from the time they first got together in 2016. After the athlete’s paternity scandal with Maralee Nichols surprisingly went public last year, things seemed to be on the rocks between the on-again-off-again pair. Since then, though, the reality star has made it obvious that she’s always going to support her co-parent.

Earlier this month, the Canadian was left devastated by the news of his mother, Andrea Thompson’s sudden passing. Shortly after he found out about her cardiac arrest, the father of four promptly flew back to his home country. His second baby mama was photographed by his side.

The following week, the NBA star held a memorial service for his family matriarch. His good friend and fellow Toronto mans, Drake, was in attendance. Paparazzi cameras also caught glimpses of figures resembling Kim Kardashian and her little sister Kylie Jenner paying their respects.

Khloé has kept quiet on social media in wake of the tragedy. Late on Monday (January 23) evening though, she finally vented her thoughts and emotions in a heartwarming tribute to Andrea. “I have been avoiding this… Avoiding accepting this is real. I have so much to say but nothing at all,” the mother of two began.

“I have so many emotions and still I feel numb. Life can be brutally unfair at times. This has been one of the toughest times in so many of our lives. But at the same time, I feel blessed that I am lucky to have had someone that makes saying goodbye so incredibly difficult. So difficult that I’m choosing not to say goodbye for good because that is something I cannot fathom.”

Kardashian is confident that she’ll see Andrea again in this lifetime. “I know I will hear your sweet voice and infectious laugh again. I know I’ll get to feel that embrace of yours. I’ll see you again with the many that have gone before you that I so desperately miss, love and cherish,” she later added.

Elsewhere in the commemorative post, the California native joked that Mrs. Thompson is probably in heaven, yelling, “Who does that?!” as her family cries over their loss. “At the same time, I know you never wanted to leave your boys. They are your entire world. They will learn to live with the hole in their hearts because they are warriors just like their warrior mommy,” she reassured the late woman.

“Just know, I promise you, Amari will be perfectly ok. We will all look after him, help him and protect him. Your boys will be ok because they have their guardian Angel by their side,” Kardashian promised before concluding with a Bible verse.

While the loss of Andrea is certainly sad, Khloé and Tristan welcomed their second child together as co-parents just a few months ago. To celebrate Halloween last year, she shared the first photos of the baby boy whose name we still don’t know.

Chrisean Rock Claims To Have Had Fertility Issues Due To Past Abortions With Blueface

Recent antics between Blueface and Chrisean Rock have some fans begging for the problematic pair to call it quits for good. As the 26-year-old was celebrating his birthday this past weekend it certainly seemed that way. However, his on-again-off-again lover came to social media with news of a pregnancy and her plans to keep it.

In the past, the reality stars conceived multiple babies. Ultimately, though, the Baltimore native opted to have three abortions. At the time, she didn’t feel financially or mentally ready for one of life’s biggest responsibilities. Now that she’s “got [her] own money” and is something of a household name in the industry, Rock is ready to try her hand at motherhood – with or without her man.

Initially, Blueface promptly denied paternity on social media. “Me [and] Rock are officially done. It’s strictly business, I tried it [and] clearly it wasn’t giving. Before she announces… She’s pregnant with somebody else’s child, not mine,” he wrote at the time. Afterward, the “Thotiana” artist alleged that the 22-year-old “has had encounters with 10 different men in the last year.”

The notoriously toxic pair publicly went back and forth for some time. Afterward, a video of Chrisean presenting the birthday boy with a custom cake (which he didn’t hesitate to aggressively stab) later surfaced online.

Friday (January 20) night’s party is when things got really out of hand. In the early hours of the next morning, Rock randomly pulled up at the function following her and Blueface’s online beef. She wound up being knocked to the ground while fighting two other women. Ultimately, she left in a separate car from her Zeus network co-star.

Presently, the nature of the entertainer’s relationship is more confusing than ever. On Monday (January 23), the Baddies cast member hopped on Instagram Live. She and a female friend chatted as she got a few things off her chest.

“It was a point when I wasn’t getting pregnant ‘cuz of how many kids I was killing,” Rock said, explicitly referring to her past abortions. “I kept getting pregnant and I kept aborting or I would take a Plan B. It was more that I didn’t do nothing, and I’m like, ‘Watch me get pregnant.’”

Apparently, the fact that she didn’t end up with child again was concerning to the young woman. “I went to the doctor and she’s like ‘You’re not fertile, so you gotta calm down with the abortions or you will not be able to have a baby.”

“I remember just praying one day, ‘Hey God, just know this time if you send me a blessing from heaven I’m gonna keep it,” Rock revealed. “And then, through the darkest time of my relationship or career, I got pregnant, and I’m not scared! I have my own money, my own name. I’m good, for real.”

Despite Chrisean’s comments about abortion and fertility, it’s worth noting that the NHS reports that, “having an abortion will not usually affect your chances of becoming pregnant and having normal pregnancies in the future. It may slightly increase the risk of the baby being born early in future pregnancies.”

Outside of her surprise pregnancy, the internet has also had a lot to say about the latest episode of Crazy In Love. If you didn’t tune in, the camera followed her as she sat down with Dr. Ish. The two discussed her traumatic childhood and subsequent toxic relationship with Blueface.

Larsa Pippen & Marcus Jordan Rep Nike In New Picture

Larsa Pippen just posted a new Instagram pic with her boo Marcus Jordan, and fans are all here for it. Moreover, the comments section either obsessed over their status or still scratched their heads over the pairing. After all, many are incredulous at the fact that Michael Jordan’s son is dating Scottie Pippen’s ex-wife.

Still, the Chicago Bulls descendants continue to make their relationship well-known to haters and admirers alike. Furthermore, Larsa captioned her post with “Checks over stripes” as they posed outside the Trophy Room store, which Marcus manages. Also, he even dipped into the comments section to support his girl. “That’s what I like, that’s what we like!” he wrote, finishing the Drake quote with ease. After all this time, we’re still dealing with “SICKO MODE” overexposure.

Regardless, many in the comments reacted with flames and hearts, but some came with less enthusiasm. “Am I the only one who finds this kind of of wrong ?? She is messy…no class girl,” one user wrote. Another added, “This is still absurd to me lol,” in line with another comment that read “Daddy’s money. All power to you girl.”

Furthermore, their relationship together prompted reactions from many figures in the NBA and beyond. Former player Jalen Rose spoke their relationship and what he considers off-limits.

“Certain relationships used to be off limits,” he expressed. “And I, on paper, want everybody to be happy and to live their best life. But, the best thing I can say for her is she should see him as more of a nephew than a mate.”

However, a lot of people jumped down their necks before they even confirmed something more serious between them. When Pippen spoke to the New York Post, she still danced around their romance.

She stated that they “are friends. We’ve been friends for the last couple of years. I’m in a place right now where I’m finally open to dating. Every time I’m seen out with someone, [people] make it out to be more than it actually is, and it’s normally nothing. So, yeah, I’m just dating right now and focusing on my businesses, my family, and having fun.”

“We date,” Diddy stated. “We’re dating, we go have dates, and we’re friends. We go to exotic locations, we have great times. We go to strip clubs, church…”

Meanwhile, the City Girl gave her own perspective in other settings. “He see other people outside of me and I see people outside of him,” she told XXL last fall. “I’m young, I’m dating. You know, having fun. I’m doing me. He’s doing the same thing. I can’t speak for exactly what he doing or who he seeing, but we single and we dating. But we are dating each other, but we single.”
