    Chelsea Houska Offers This Reason for Departure From 'Teen Mom 2'

    Instagram

    The reality star, who exited the show after 10 seasons, claims she is ‘worried’ her 11-year-old daughter Aubree ‘can’t tell me things because it’s going to be aired to millions of people.’

    May 5, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Chelsea Houska has finally unveiled the reason for her departure from “Teen Mom 2”. Having exited the show after 10 seasons, the reality star divulged that she took the decision to protect her children’s privacy, especially her 11-year-old daughter Aubree.

    The 29-year-old made the revelation in an interview with E! News. “There just came a point – and I think it was a buildup almost – this feeling in my gut, or my heart, I guess. It just didn’t feel like I was supposed to be on that show anymore,” she first spilled.

    “There were conversations that Aubree and I were having from time to time,” Chelsea went on noting. “And there came a point where I was just worried because I don’t want her to ever be like, she can’t tell me things because it’s going to be aired to millions of people or whatever.”

    “When she was little, the stuff that was going on with her dad and stuff, it was from my point of view, and as she got older, it started coming from her point of view. I think that deserves to be private for her,” the mother of four continued. “That was ultimately what kind of pushed me to decide to step away and leave that chapter of life.”

    When asked whether she would ever consider returning to TV, Chelsea replied, “I always say that I would never go back to anything that’s about my kids’ personal life for sure.” She then added, “I don’t think I could do that. If something happened to be light-hearted and fun, I don’t think I would say no.”

    Chelsea announced her departure from “Teen Mom 2” back in November 2020. Sharing a family portrait on Instagram, she declared, “MTV’s Teen Mom 2 has been a big part of my life for almost 11 years. After much thought and discussion with my family and friends, Cole and I have decided that this season will be our last.”

    “We are forever thankful to MTV and our crew, who are like family to us. We’re parting on the best of terms and will stay in touch long after this. We’re proud to have been able to share our story and are so grateful to the fans who have followed our journey from the beginning,” the wife of Cole DeBoer further noted. “Our next chapter in life will focus on developing our brand and taking things to the next level with new endeavors and expanding family businesses.”

    Tom Cavanagh and Carlos Valdes Bid Farewell to 'The Flash' After Seven Seasons

    The CW

    The original stars of The CW series will not be returning for an eighth season while fellow castmates Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker are negotiating new deals.

    May 5, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Original “The Flash” castmates Tom Cavanagh and Carlos Valdes have exited the show ahead of its eighth season.

    Cavanagh, who played Eobard Thawne/Reverse-Flash and Harrison Wells on the long-running show, was slated to end his tenure as a series regular at the end of season seven, according to Deadline, but the pandemic forced him to quit the show before filming his swansong episode, and Valdes, who plays Cisco Ramon, will end his run with an appearance in the season seven finale.

    “Tom and Carlos have been an integral part of our show for seven seasons, and will be greatly missed,” “The Flash” executive producer and showrunner Eric Wallace said in a statement to Deadline. “Both are incredible talents who created beloved characters that fans and audiences around the world have come to love, which is why we are happily keeping the door open for return appearances.”

    Among their fellow original castmates, Grant Gustin is contracted to return as Barry Allen/The Flash for season eight, while Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker are negotiating new deals.

    Cavanagh himself seemed to have hinted at his exit back in February 2020. At the time, he put out a reflective post about his time with the series. “It has been a joy creating and playing the myriad Wells that make up ‘Wells st’ on #theFlash,” he captioned his post.

    “At times brusque, sunny, capricious, and perpetually shameless, they will always be linked by a single unbreakable thread of gratitude,” the 57-year-old continued sharing his thought. “My thanks to everyone on all sides of the screen that makes up this wee superhero show of ours. ”

    “We are thrilled to be partnering with (producers) David, Lesli (Linka Glatter), Nicole and Per (Saari) and incredibly fortunate to have Elizabeth at the center of our story to bring out all the layers of Candy that make this story so unforgettable.”

    It’s the second TV project to centre on the Montgomery case – “The Handmaid’s Tale” star Elisabeth Moss will also portray the killer housewife on a separate series for bosses at UCP, a division of Universal Content Studios.

    “Never in my wildest dreams did I think that they were going to do a ‘Driver’s License’ sketch where they played the entirety of ‘Driver’s License’,” she went on saying. “And Pete Davidson, who is my biggest celebrity crush, was singing it and comparing me to Taylor Swift, who is my idol. It was just insane. It was on my 18th birthday too, so it was just a crazy day.”

    'Sex and the City' Reboot Gets Three Women of Color Added to Cast Ensemble

    HBO Max CCO Casey Bloys says that executive producers Sarah Jessica Parker and Michael Patrick King did not want to tell a story that is not reflective of the way New York looks today.

    May 4, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    The “Sex and the City” reboot won’t be as white as the original series, thanks to the addition of three new black female characters.

    “And Just Like That…” will be a lot more diverse than “Sex and the City”, which has been criticized for its largely white cast, according to a new report.

    Responding to the TV Line story, HBO Max CCO Casey Bloys says, “We are trying to tell an honest story about being a woman in her 50s in New York, so it should all feel somewhat organic, and the friends that you have when you’re 30, you may not have when you’re 50.”

    “They [executive producers Sarah Jessica Parker and Michael Patrick King didn’t want to tell a story with all-white writers or an all-white cast as it’s not reflective of New York. So they are being very, very conscious about understanding that New York has to reflect the way New York looks today.”

    Parker will be returning as Carrie Bradshaw, alongside Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon, and John Corbett will reprise his role as Aidan Shaw, but Kim Cattrall and Chris Noth won’t be back for the new show. Cattrall had repeatedly stated that she has no interest in reprising her iconic Samantha Jones role.

    News about the reboot’s diverse cast came around three months after HBO Max unveiled that non-white scribes have been added to the series’ official writing team. Comedian/author Samantha Irby, “Fresh Off the Boat” writer Rachna Fruchbom and “Reversing Roe” producer Keli Goff are joining showrunner Michael Patrick King and veteran writers Julie Rottenberg and Elisa Zuritsky.
