Jessa Duggar: We"re ADOPTING Our Next kid!

As you’ve probably heard Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald welcomed their first child last week.


It was a difficult labor for Jessa, and though she had planned on a homebirth, she wound up being rushed to a nearby hospital. 



Apparently, the experience left quite an impression on the new mom, as Jessa says she’s in no hurry to get pregnant again.


“We would love it if our next baby is adopted,” Jessa told People magazine in a recent interview.


Jessa has spoken about adoption in the past, and she says she and Ben have always considered the possibility, but after experiencing a number of issues during her first delivery, the 23-year-old now has added incentive to explore the option:


“When I was in labor, I told Ben, ‘Babe, we are not having any more kids after this,’ ” Jessa said. “I was teasing – we will have more kids. But in that moment of pain, I believed it!”


Last night, Jessa and Ben announced that they’ve decided to name their firstborn Spurgeon Elliot Seewald


It’s great to hear that they’re breaking with family tradition and planning on adopting Spurgeon’s first sibling, but hopefully they’ll conduct some sort of online poll before choosing a name for their second kid. 


Josh Duggar to Anna Duggar: Let"s Have Another Kid!

Earlier this week, we reported that Josh Duggar may be planning to bail on rehab several months ahead of schedule.



That was followed by rumors of the Duggar family taking a private plane to Illinois in order to visit Josh – or spring him from the facility.


After all that he’s done, what could possibly get Josh’s parents to agree to allow him to quit his treatment program three months early?


Why, the promise of a new grandchild, of course!


Yes, apparently Josh is so worried that Anna Duggar will divorce him that he’s appealing to her love of children as part of his effort to convince her to stay.



“Josh is so worried that Anna will leave him that he is now convinced she will stay if he can persuade her they should have another child together,” a source tells Hollywood Life.


The insider adds that Josh carefully chose his words when making his argument for another kid, telling Anna that she is “meant to” bear him another child, and that it’s “God’s will” that they continue to procreate.


The guy certainly knows his audience.


No word on whether Anna intends to take him up on the offer, but we’re hoping Josh’s strategy will backfire.


The fact that he’d use such a sleazy tactic to try and save his marriage is just one of the many reasons Anna should leave Josh:


Kris Jenner: Kardashian Sisters Fighting Over Her Fortune?!

Last week, Kris Jenner turned 60, and she celebrated with a theme party based on a book that we’re guessing no one in her family has actually read.




Turns out, the Great Gatsby motif may have been more appropriate than anyone realized, as apparently, Kris’ 60th kicked off some ugly drama revolving around a vast fortune.


“Right after her birthday her kids demanded that she get life insurance,” a source close to the family tells Radar Online. “Of course, Kris took it as an insult, but her family is serious.


“She has so much money that – God forbid something happens to her – the Kardashians want to make sure that they know who gets what so that there is no fighting over her money.”


Kim and kompany aren’t exactly hurting for money. In fact, sources say they spent $ 2 million just on Kris’ birthday party


So we think it’s pretty clear what they’re really worried about.


Ever since her daughters learned that Kris wants to marry Corey Gamble, they’ve reportedly been concerned that the 34-year-old is after their mom’s cash.


As a result, Kris has reluctantly agreed to look into a life insurance policy, but she’s still unsure of how she should divide up her loot.


“Kris is using her lawyer to do this life insurance policy and she is trying to figure out how to distribute all of her money when she is gone,” says the insider, adding that Kris’ fortune has been estimated at around $ 125 million.


Yes, that’s $ 125 million. We’d say she has plenty to go around.

Khloe Kardashian: Lamar "Understands" That I"m Dating James Harden

Khloe Kardashian had to assume that with a book signing comes questions about her estranged husband, Lamar Odom.



At The Grove on November 9th, Kardashian fielded several questions about Odom’s health and the state of their marriage.


According to Fishwrapper, Kardashian explained how writing Strong Looks Better Naked sort of prepared her for the tough times.


“I definitely know that this has made me stronger,” Kardashian told The Insider.  “I don’t know what it is that’s in you, but when you feel like ‘OK, how are you going to do this?’ or ‘how are you going to find the time?’ or, like new moms, how they could run off fumes without sleeping or eating or whatever with their baby.


“It’s kind of like I felt like ‘I’ve had no sleep, I have to still work, I have to do whatever,’ you just have to find a way. You just get this energy because it’s about somebody else, it’s not about yourself.”


When asked if Odom was showing gratitude for the care she’s provided since his mid-October hospitalization, Kardashian had this to say:


“I don’t know if he can right now. Like I don’t know if he fully understands everything, but I know he’s grateful, like I know — and I’m not doing it for validation, I’m not doing it to get praise back — but I know he’s grateful.


“There’s not much he could do right now because he has to take care of himself, but I don’t know if he fully understands the extent of what’s happening.” 


Kardashian realizes that she’s still legally married to Odom, but at this point it’s just a formality so that she can take proper care of him.  That does, however, make it more difficult for her to focus on her budding relationship with James Harden.


“It’s just now it’s more I’m by Lamar’s side, People say, ‘Oh, I pulled back on the divorce’” Kardashian explained, joking that she was was dabbling in polygamy.


“They think it’s something sexual or there was a relationship to be thought about when he can’t even fully understand what’s happening. He understands I’m dating James, but it’s not like — he’s not thinking about a relationship.


“Like, he can barely think about himself right now, if that makes sense.”


Kardashian’s will be in San Diego on November 13th to sign copies of her book.
