    Fans 'Pissed' After Being Misled by 'RHONJ' Trailer

    Bravo

    The said promo appears to hint that Melissa Gorga may be cheating on her husband Joe as Teresa Giudice says, ‘Last night, the owner of the restaurant asked Melissa for her number.’

    Mar 5, 2021
    AceShowbiz – Bravo is under fire after unveiling a trailer for “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” season 11. Fans have taken to Twitter to slam the TV network for its misleading edit regarding Melissa Gorga’s relationship with her husband Joe Gorga in the said trailer.
    The promo appeared to hint that Melissa could be cheating on Joe. “Last night, the owner of the restaurant asked Melissa for her number,” cast member Teresa Giudice said in the trailer before the camera panned to Melissa who was texting someone.
    However, in a new preview that was released on Wednesday, March 3, it was revealed that the plot point was only a prank. Feeling played, viewers quickly took to social media to put Bravo on blast over the misleading edit. “Me when I realise the Melissa cheating story line is a joke,” one person wrote on the blue bird app.

    “Not Melissa ‘cheating’ being a prank I’m so pissed at these editors lol,” another user said. “When you realize Bravo pranked you by editing the #RHONJ season 11 trailer to make it look like there was a ‘Melissa is cheating’ storyline, even though it was all just a joke. #RHONJ,” one fan posted.
    While the cheating is nothing but a prank, Melissa did speak about the struggle in her marriage to Teresa’s brother Joe. “Listen, I’m not gonna deny that we went through a rough, like year-and-a-half, and I would say it started right before the pandemic,” she told Page Six back in February.
    “I feel like as I become more and more independent in certain ways, it really is a struggle for him. I hate that. It shouldn’t be a struggle and it really is. And we really go through it and we’re very raw and real and honest with it. So you’re going to have to see how that all unfolds. But it’s very real for us,” Melissa, who shares daughter Antonia (15), sons Gino (13) and Joey (10) with Joe, shared.

    Meanwhile, Jennifer previously insisted the reunion special will be “even more exciting” because of the delay.
    “Unfortunately it’s very sad that we had to move it again,” she said. “It was, ‘How do we do this with live audiences?’ This is not a safe time. Period. That’s the bottom line. It’s not a safe time to do it … It’s going to be super.”
    “You know what? This has also given us more time to make it even more exciting and more fun than it would have been. So I choose to see it as the glass is half-full that it got postponed. Look, we’re not going anywhere. You’re never going to get rid of ‘Friends’, sorry. You’re stuck with us for life guys.”

    Prince William and Queen Elizabeth II Think Meghan and Harry's Interview Is 'Unfair'

    WENN/Danny Martindale

    A source also shares that the British royals are ‘furious’ about what might be revealed in Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s upcoming tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey.

    Mar 5, 2021
    AceShowbiz – It is just days before “Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime Special” airs on March 7. According to a new report, Prince William and Queen Elizabeth II are not entirely happy with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s tell-all interview as they’re worried that it will badly affect their image.
    “They feel that by sharing [Harry and Meghan’s] side of the story, the entire royal family will be painted in an unfair way,” an insider claims to Us Weekly. The source also adds that the royals are “furious” about what might be revealed in the interview.
    Meghan and Harry indeed seemingly will drop some bombshell revelation in the sit-down with Oprah Winfrey for the CBS special. A new trailer saw the Duchess of Sussex accusing the Palace of “perpetuating falsehoods” about her and her husband.

    “I don’t know how they could expect that after all of this time, we would still just be silent if there is an active role that the firm is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us,” the former “Suits” star said. “And if that comes with risk of losing things – I mean, there’s a lot that’s been lost already.”
    Harry also got candid in a previous promo as Oprah teased about “some pretty shocking things.” The British prince later talked about his concern when it came to his wife’s safety. “My biggest concern was history repeating itself. I’m really relieved and happy to be sitting here, talking to you with my wife by my side because I can’t begin to imagine what it must have been for her going through this process by herself all these years ago,” he told the host.
    “Oprah with Meghan and Harry” is set to feature Oprah speaking with “Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, in a wide-ranging interview, covering everything from stepping into life as a Royal, marriage, motherhood, philanthropic work to how she is handling life under intense public pressure.” Prince Harry will join them later as they speak about their move to the United States and their future hopes and dreams for their expanding family.

    Chris Harrison Determined to Return to 'The Bachelor' After Defending Contestant's Racist Past

    WENN

    The reality TV show host plans and wants to be back on the popular dating show as a host after apologizing for defending Rachael Kirkconnell over her racist past.

    Mar 5, 2021
    AceShowbiz – Chris Harrison, the popular host of “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette”, hopes to return to the U.S. dating shows after stepping down amid a race row.
    Harrison was hammered by critics after he defended “The Bachelor” contestant Rachael Kirkconnell against claims suggesting that some of her social media posts had been racist.
    Kirkconnell, who is one of the finalists on the current season of the show, was slammed for posting photos of herself appearing in front of a Confederate flag – considered a link to slavery by many – and at an antebellum-themed party, which appeared to honour an age when indentured servitude for African-Americans was widespread in the Deep South.
    Harrison took aim at Rachael’s critics during an interview with former “The Bachelorette” star Rachel Lindsay, claiming the “woke police” were out to get her.
    Days after the interview aired, Chris apologised and announced he was temporarily stepping down as the host of the dating shows but, in a new interview with “Good Morning America”, he made it clear he plans to return.

    “I plan to be back and I want to be back,” he said. “And I think this franchise can be an important beacon of change. I know that change is felt, not just by me, but by many others. And we are excited and willing to do the work to show that progress.”
    He also issued a new apology, stating, “I am saddened and shocked at how insensitive I was in that interview with Rachel Lindsay. I can’t believe I didn’t speak against antebellum parties, what they stand for. I didn’t say it then and I want to say it now: those parties are not OK, past, present, future.”
    “I didn’t speak from my heart. And that is to say that I stand against all forms of racism, and I am deeply sorry to Rachel Lindsay and to the black community… I am an imperfect man. I made a mistake and I own that. I believe that mistake doesn’t reflect who I am or what I stand for. I am committed to the progress not just for myself but also for the franchise.”
    Harrison also turned on his fans, who have criticised Lindsay, blaming her for the host’s decision to step down.
    “To anyone who is throwing hate towards Rachel Lindsay, please stop,” he added. “It’s unacceptable.”

    The new promo arrives after Meghan was accused of bullying members of staff at Kensington Palace. According a formal complaint made by Jason Knauf, the former communications secretary for Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, Meghan’s rude behaviour made two members of staff out of the household and undermined the confidence of a third. The “Suits” alum were also accused of leaving staff members in tears at times.
    In response to the accusations, a spokesperson for Meghan said in a statement, “The Duchess is saddened by this latest attack on her character particularly as someone who has been the target of bullying herself and is deeply committed to supporting those who have experienced pain and trauma.”
    “She is determined to continue her work building compassion around the world and will keep striving to set an example for doing what is right and doing what is good,” the statement continued.
    Meanwhile, officials at Queen Elizabeth II’s royal residence, Buckingham Palace, shared that they would “are clearly very concerned about allegations” and “will look into the circumstances outlined in the article.”
    “Members of staff involved at the time, including those who have left the Household, will be invited to participate to see if lessons can be learned. The Royal Household has had a Dignity at Work policy in place for a number of years and does not and will not tolerate bullying or harassment in the workplace,” they stated.

    Report: 'RHOA' to Cast a Female Comedian for Season 14

    According to a new report, Bravo has been ‘putting out fillers to see who might potentially be a good fit’ for upcoming season 14 of the popular reality TV show.

    Mar 4, 2021
    AceShowbiz – It seems like Bravo wants “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” to have women from various backgrounds. A new report suggests that the production team of the popular reality TV show wants to cast a female comedian for its upcoming season.
    Sources spill to theJasmineBRAND that Bravo has been “putting out fillers to see who might potentially be a good fit.” Meanwhile, the site notes that the production has yet to make decision who will return for the upcoming season.
    In the current season 13, Kenya Moore, Kandi Burruss, Porsha Williams, Cynthia Bailey and newcomer Drew Sidora appear as full-time peach holders. As for LaToya Ali, Shamea Morton, Tanya Sam and Falynn Guobadia, they are currently serving as friends of the show.

    The new season made headlines with its StripperGate in which Porsha and Tanya allegedly had a threesome with a male stripper at Cynthia’s wild bachelorette party. That night, the ladies begged Michael “B.O.L.O THE ENTERTAINER” Bolwaire to stay and party with them even after the cameras stopped rolling.
    Even though the Housewives tried to cover as many as cameras they found at the house, they missed one camera that was put outside as it captured some of what happened inside the house. The next day, Kenya woke up and claimed that she heard sex noises coming from Porsha’s second bedroom. After grilling everyone if they also heard what she heard, she concluded that it must have been Porsha and Tanya Sam who hooked up with the stripper.
    “I heard a lot — and other people heard a lot, very specific things. Very specific things and very specific voices,” so she shared in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in December 2020. She also shared that she found it unfair “that people will call that pot-stirring.”
