Pippa Middleton: A History Of The Famous Bridesmaid"s Suitors


Now that the world"s most famous bridesmaid is engaged to James Matthews, let"s take a trip down memory lane and relive Pipple Middleton"s love life.


There were actual boyfriends, rumored paramours and men stuck in the friend zone.


Today, they are all no doubt congregating at a high-end bar somewhere in England to talk about what would have been.




1. JJ Jardine-Paterson

The Hong Kong banking heir and Middleton dated at University of Ediburgh. He is currently a partner at Dalton Strategic Partnership, per his LinkedIn profile.



2. Charlie Gilkes

Middleton was a guest at the nightclub entrepeneur September 2014 nuptials to Anneke von Trotha Taylor. Gilkes, who dated the former party planner briefly, is also a gradute of the University of Edinburgh.



3. Alex Loudon

Loudin, a former professional cricket player, dated Middleton in 2011 (he was her date to the royal wedding, where she wowed the world in a clingy Alexander McQueen dress). The two broke up because Loudon couldn’t handle the press attention.



4. Prince Harry

Hah! Not bloody likely. Though the tabloids have loved linking these two together after they walked up the aisle together at William and Catherine’s wedding, nothing romantic has every transpired (at least not publicly).



5. George Percy

Percy, who is heir to the Duke of Northumberland title, is a good friend of Middleton’s from the University of Edinburgh. The two were spotted together on a few occasions post-royal wedding, but there was never anything romantic to speak of. Still, Middleton could have been in the running to be a Duchess, which is the highest-ranking title for a non-royal.



6. Nico Jackson

After Matthews and Middleton ended things in 2012, Middleton began dating Nico Jackson, whom many thought she would marry. The stockbroker had relocated to Geneva for work while they dated, and their relationship was long-distance until both parties agreed to split in 2015.

Hope Higginbotham: Dating Robby Hayes Right Before The Bachelorette!

Last night on The Bachelorette, JoJo Fletcher expressed serious concerns about suitor Robby Hayes and his ex-girlfriend, Hope Higginbotham.


Well, now we have the real story …



Fans who watched the episode leading up to the hometown dates rose ceremony last night – it was filmed back in May – are all wondering:


What the hell was that all about?!


Robby Hayes and Hope Higginbotham‘s relationship took an oddly front-and-center role in the drama playing out on his date in Florida.


Specifically, when Robby had a conversation with his mother … who told him, in a serious tone, that Hope’s roommate was calling him out.


Publicly. For reasons unknown.


The accusation of the roommate, who Robby calls Alex, is that he abandoned his relationship with Hope to appear on The Bachelorette.


It was all very weird …



To wit, the All-Knowing Oracle of The Bachelorette spoilers, Reality Steve, states that Bachelorette producers came up with this nonsense.


Why, you ask?


Steve claims the show had Robby’s mom blame it on Hope’s roommate when, in reality, his suspicious breakup was reported by … Steve.


He claims he will publish an email from Hope that proves the story Robby tells on TV is quite different from what really happened, too.


According to Robby, his relationship with Hope was “so bad” that it was over nine months before it was actually over. Yes, he said this.


It’s as shady and vague as that sounds, if not more so. He went to Italy with Hope in November 2015, then they clearly had a nice Christmas:



According to Robby, his relationship with Hope was “so bad” that he should have “ended it nine months earlier,” he told JoJo last night.


But he didn’t – rather, he went to Italy with Hope in November 2015, something quite well documented on both of their Instagram pages.


Quoth Reality Steve:


“Robby & Hope went 2 Italy together in Nov of last yr. But according 2 him, the relationship was so bad, he should’ve ended it 9 mos earlier.” 


“Then a month after Italy, on Xmas Day, they take this pic together,” he adds, sharing the above photo of the twosome from the holidays.


Pretty suspicious given his “nine months of misery” timeline and the fact that he left to film The Bachelorette this spring, wouldn’t you say?



According to one insider, Hope spent more time with Robby’s family “than she did with her own” and would she “loved him and his family.”


Others say that Robby is trying to get out in front of this story and trying to make it look like he’s “worked hard” to be honest with Fletcher.


As for H-squared?


Monday night, Steve promised his followers that he will share the contents of Hope Higginbotham’s email on his blog at some point today.


Stay tuned.


Woman Gives Birth to SIX Kids in 26 Months. For Real.

Remember that woman who went into labor in the woods… fought of insects and other animals… gave birth… and lived to tell about it?


She was very tough.



But you’ll forgive Danesha Couch if she laughs at that woman’s so-called difficulties.


Not because Couch is insensitive. 


If anything, she has a greater appreciation for mothers and parenthood than nearly anyone else on the planet.


What prompts us to say this?


Because Danesha Couch has given birth to THREE sets of twins… in a 26-month span.


We’re not kidding. We’re not making this up.


The Kansas native has welcomed six children into the world in just over two years.


They are: one-month-old newborns, Dalanie and Darla; one-year-olds Delilah and Davina; and her two-year-old, Danarius (whose twin brother sadly passed away).


Couch did not undergo any fertility treatments to achieve these results.


She says people are calling her a “freak of nature” because there’s a one in 88,000 chance of a woman having three sets of twins.


Those odds actually are not as high as we would have guessed them to be.


Did we mention that Couch is only 20 years old?


Still, she doesn’t have any regrets, except for maybe how close together she had the children.


“My regrets would be timing, but I’m really happy that I can even create babies or have life because some women can’t do that,” Couch told a local TV station.


That’s a pretty great perspective for her to take, wouldn’t you say?


Couch does at least say she’s done having kids… for at least the next decade.


Willow Smith Posts Disturbing Gun Image, Worries Internet

I’m sure she gets asked this a lot, but WHERE ARE HER PARENTS?



Willow Smith is 15 years old and posting photos of girls holding guns to their head, according to Fishwrapper.


Not OK, even if the photo is of Claire Danes in Romeo + Juliet.

Teenage angst is the worst, but these days the kids have access to social media, which allows them to show their feelings to the whole entire world YAY!


I miss the good old days where you would write in your journal, tuck it under your mattress and cry in front of a poster of Gavin Rossdale.


And yes, I get that the world sucks right now and nothing is right, but posting a photo like this is kind of upsetting, not to mention a potential red flag.  Is Smith OK?  Is this a cry for help? 


We’re getting ahead of ourselves, of course, but to see this image tagged with “mood” on Instagram is cause for concern.


Smith’s account is very emo.  There’s one photo of an airplane window showing zero visibility outside, which Smith captioned “a window into my mind.”



Earlier this month, Smith and her dad, Will (in this story, the Suicide Squad star is billed as such) attended Chanel’s Haute Couture show.


“It’s not every day that a 15 year-old black girl with dreads gets elected to be the Chanel ambassador,” Smith told the Telegraph of her new appointment, given to her by Chanel’s head designer and creative director, Karl Lagerfeld.


Smith stars in the French house’s Fall/Winter 2016/17 eyewear campaign, and wants to use her position to influence a new trend in beauty.


“I know a lot of girls that look like me feel that they’re not beautiful and feel like they don’t have a place in the media or a place in the world,”


“I want them to know that’s not true, and if you’re confident and you love yourself, then everything you see, your perception, will start to change and you’ll see things differently.


“I want to show those girls that might not think they’re beautiful (that) they are.”


I like this chick.  Still, easy on the gun pics.
