Wow! That's surprising! I've occasionally watched her YouTube videos, and I noticed a video this week about her moving into a new house or apartment (which seemed out of the blue). Now I'm thinking I should go watch it. The strange thing is that the videos I watched, which weren't very long ago, were about how they had gotten together--essentially their love story, which seems like a weird thing to be posting about if they were struggling. But maybe they were wanting to relive it to get the spark back. Who knows.

Reality Steve had Evan's ex-wife on at the end of this week's podcast, which I listened to last night. It was kind of weird, but she was there to stick up for Evan, because she doesn't think he would speak out for himself. (Not sure it's her place to do that, but it was interesting what she had to say.) It seems that they've been living separately for over a year and a half! Carly left him early in her pregnancy with Charlie (maybe as early as February or March or 2019. At first she (Evan's ex) figured that they just needed some time to try to sort things out and would eventually make an announcement, but the silence about it just dragged on and on. She said that Evan was/is crazy about Carly and wanted to try to make things work, so maybe that's why there was silence on his side. Mostly, the reason she seemed to feel a need to say something is because Carly's been going on social media talking about how sad she is and how hard the divorce is on her, while Evan isn't much of a social media type, and people seem to be ragging on Evan like it's his fault, and she wants people to know that Carly is the one who left. Sounds like she and Carly never got along very well to begin with. She (the ex) and Evan had a good co-parenting thing going before he and Carly got together, but things got off to a bad start when the ex went public with how pissed she was about Carly ragging on Evan the way she did on Paradise before they got together, and the relationship with Carly never recovered, so that affected the co-parenting relationship, too. Seems maybe the ex needs to learn not to say everything she thinks publicly :eyeroll, since I'm thinking this interview will probably turn out the same way. But it was interesting to know that they've been living apart for a VERY long time, and it does make me wonder about some of the drama Carly is brining to her social media, since this clearly was NOT her fist Christmas alone and having to send her kids to Evan's house for part of it. Also, what a lot of work to pretend for a year and a half to not be living apart.

Hmmm. The plot thickens! Carly apparently posted a YouTube video today (which I haven't watched) in which she says that they separated on Thanksgiving Day, and it was his choice. (Reality Steve did say in his podcast that when Evan's ex originally told him in November of 2019 that Carly and Evan had separated, he asked around among various Bachelor Nation folks he knows, and they confirmed the split back then. It was apparently common knowledge but no one was going public with it out of respect for Evan and Carly. So what's the truth? Maybe when she says Thanksgiving Day, she means Thanksgiving 2019. Who knows? And I suppose who really cares, since it's none of our business, really.) www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/carly-waddell-fires-back-at-evan-bass-ex-wife-amid-divorce/

I believe in the info that Steve has. Either be honest or don't say anything at all, Carlie. Doing things for clout and likes is bad form.

I can't recall where I saw it online, maybe People, but Carly was being interviewed from her new place where she said she moved in in October, so how could the November split be a 2020 split, it had to be 2019, right? And she was sitting in what she now refers to as the Divorce Room because that's the room Evan told her he wanted a divorce... mean detail. She also said something about being upset with Evan's comment on the pandemic virtual reunion segment that another baby would do them in, but why? Obviously they were in a rough patch, so that's just common sense, right? She's acting very sensitive but at the same time very much in control, which leaves me feeling particularly sad for Evan.

Trying very hard to control the narrative when she doesn't even have to. Incompatibility happens. It doesn't invalidate your relationship or kids. She's trying too hard to come across as favorable on social media. Also, I'm curious about the kids. Did Evan want to have more kids since he already had 3?

As someone who has been through a divorce, I have no criticism for either one of them nor the way they have & are dealing with it. They're in the public eye. I could only imagine how awful it would be to be going through this with everyone analyzing your every action & every word, and making unfair assumptions.
They've been making decisions based on their own situation, feelings & judgements, and every one of those decisions is being criticized, second guessed and trashed by a public who just wasn't there & doesn't really know. That would be horrible.
I'm just a little old nobody & no one but people who knew us in some degree, knew nor cared nor criticized any of mine. And it was still horrific to have people who just weren't there & didn't know what was behind it all, to be making unfair comments & passing judgement on me & I supposed some passed judgement on my ex. They didn't know. They weren't there.
Divorce is soul sucking. It will eat you alive from the inside out. The emotional toll is immense. And that's not even taking into account the turmoil of child custody or financial or living decisions. Sometimes seemingly minor things like "Who gets custody of the friends?" can be heartbreaking. Having friends who had been MY friends for many years all of a sudden disappear in all ways from my life, simply because they were his friends' wives, is awful. I felt betrayed by people who I'd never had any problem with and always trusted. I'd thought they'd still be my friends, but they were more afraid of angering their own husbands or my ex, so they took the easy way out.
Just think how much more awful this must be for Carly especially, seeing that she's the one who's taking the blame & criticism, by people all over who don't even know her, but for some reason think they have the right to pass judgement on her & her actions. So far as any of us know SHE'S DONE NOTHING WRONG! Just moved out to try to figure out what to do with her life & her marriage. In privacy! She wasn't ready to make any final decisions yet, so didn't want to go public with it all. NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. But the public wouldn't let her do that.
I wish them both well & hope it ends as painlessly as possible.
While I'm at it...... Evan's ex should stay the f*** out of it! And keep her criticism of Carly to herself. What I heard in that interview was a woman who resented Carly from day 1, and hated that when Evan remarried she lost her co-parent & "best friend" and someone who she admittedly went on "family vacations" with. I don't know how long they've been divorced, but she just doesn't seem like she's ready to move on herself yet. Bottom line advice to the ex: MYOB! It's not your place.

Oh, I always liked her. Congrats to her and her future hubby. Same. Although I was a bit surprised she was into Dean but now I know why - she has a physical type. Her future hubby looks so much like him! I hope he's a sweetheart and I hope they have a wonderful life ahead of them. They're certainly off to a wonderful start.

That's too bad that it took so long for him to get diagnosed. If he lived in the Northeast, they would have been right on it, but here in the Mountain West, we don't tend to think of that first. I'm glad he finally knows what he's dealing with.

Am I the only one here following what is currently happening for Arie & Lauren or are others posting elsewhere about it on this site?
Baby girl has had to stay in the hospital which has been particularly hard on mommy. Seeing the twins side by side and then having to take only their son home, I can understand why. I was as tearful as she was in that portion of their latest video. Baby boy's name was revealed when he met his big sister, who couldn't have been any sweeter with him.

From the first photo with both babies in Lauren's arm, you can see that the girl is jaundiced. Her skin tone is darker toward orange than her pink and white brother.
This is from a Google search - sidebar
Neonatal jaundice
Also called: neonatal hyperbilirubinemia
A liver condition that causes yellowing of a newborn baby's skin and eyes. Neonatal jaundice is common in preterm babies. The cause is often an immature liver. Infection, medications, or blood disorders may cause more serious cases.
Symptoms include yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes that appears within days after birth. In most cases, treatment isn't needed. Light therapy (phototherapy) can help resolve moderate or severe cases.
Common More than 200,000 US cases per year Treatable by a medical professional

Interesting about the jaundice. From what I read, the main issues she seems to be having are with breathing and her heart being affected when her breathing slows down.
There doesn't seem to be anything structurally wrong with either the heart or lungs, it's more an issue of the nervous system being a bit underdeveloped and not regulating properly from what I understand. (But it's entirely possible that I don't understand at all.)

Arie explains what is wrong in his video. She's basically too chill. Sweet little thing. She also came out bruised while her twin brother did not and you will see in the birth video that they whisk her away for a faster assessment than they do Lux. I bet she's home soon. I just hope Lauren won't worry too much. She made a comment that because of what's going on with her littlest girl she is going to be a neurotic mom this time around, continually making sure they're breathing. It's been a long journey for them after having a miscarriage, I just want her to relax and enjoy. It's wonderful to see someone her age so maternal. She's special.

If the hospital isn't too far away, I hope they're getting to go back and spend bonding time with her each day. I feel bad for any baby that has health issues and has to spend time separated from their parents.

Their last video shows Arie going back with a tube of Lauren's breast milk that he then gave by bottle.

We know it starts with "S" because they had a big "L&S" display at Lauren's surprise baby shower and the "L" has already been taken, so any guesses?! A quick search tells me that Lux means light. Hmm. What would go with Lux and/or light?
