The days are tough but seeing Anderson with his baby son last night was pure joy. Love how he honored his surrogate and her family, and was moved by his decision to use the name Morgan because it was listed on an old piece of paper (he found while going through his mother's things) of names his parents considered for him. That really was touching, wasn't it?

And there is currently a pandemic going on, where is she expected to go? That's exactly why I don't understand why she can't just go to the landlord and sign a lease for the same place. This is certainly not a case where the woman doesn't have a penny without the support of her husband.

Reading between the lines I think he's going to still stay there; he just had her taken off the lease and wants her out.

As an aside, it disturbs me that there's a spike in domestic abuse cases during this pandemic. 😥

Oh, by the way, you're right, we are guilty... and oh, also by the way, we know you won't put us in jail right now because there's a pandemic so there's that, too. Lori Loughlin and Husband

Lori Loughlin and HusbandPretty much. I hope they get jail time anyway but either way her career is over; she'll forever be known as "that lady who paid to have her daughters get into college and then arrogantly said she did nothing wrong." People seriously dislike them now (where before Lori had a lot of goodwill due to Full House). The irony of all of this is Olivia Jade was doing quite well with her influencer thing on Instagram; lots of clients and followers and IMO should have been allowed to put college on the backburner for a few years to explore that. There's absolutely nothing wrong with going to college a little later in life and she would have a nice nest egg of her own money to boot. Instead, her influencer career is in rubble right now and she's lost loads of followers over her bratty and entitled behavior.

I don't think her sentence is because of the virus, it's similar to what other people got who also plead guilty earlier. What I read said that they also dropped the additional charges they had piled on after they said they were innocent. Actually, it said one guy was released early because of the virus.
She would have been better off doing this sooner than later. She could have been in and out like FH, plus not spent extra money on her attorneys doing more work. She and her husband will have to pay a fine, and do community service too. I guess they finally realized somehow that they weren't going to wriggle out of the charges. I bet now that they've finally said they're guilty, and taking a deal, they wish they had done this sooner and saved themselves some time, money and good will from the people. My perception is that Felicity Huffman isn't viewed as badly, and can possibly revive her career at some point because she immediately said she was guilty. At least I know I have more respect for her. I think Lori shot herself in the foot with fighting it. She lost even more respect than just the damage from the original charges. Of course her case has been gone over more closely too since it was still pending. Most anyone without a fancy degree could see they were guilty! IMO, she's lost way more than she would have had she just fessed up to begin with.
The sad thing to me is what happened to her daughter. Entitled or not, they pretty much made her go to college when she didn't want to, or even need to at that point. She had a career. You think that her dad who didn't keep attending to build his fashion line would have understood where she was coming from. Also, no wonder she was entitled, she obviously learned it from them.

I think the thing people are angry about it's that due to the virus, they might well end up NOT doing time in prison and will end up under house arrest with an ankle cuff or something instead.

In all fairness, they're rich, famous and white. They were never going to serve a lot of time anyway. Sucks, but it's the way things are.

They're totally doing this due to Covid-19 to serve it at home and I also think that they weren't ever going to serve more than that. Lori was trying to forgo even doing those 2 months. This is justice, privileged style. They're just not like the rest of us.

So that gives me some satisfaction!

I think their careers died when they were arrested. "Varsity Blues" Unlike FH who admitted and took her punishment and kept very quiet, I would not be surprised to see her back acting. But LL and her husband DENIED it all and made themselves look so HORRIBLE with their arrogance and rudeness with their HIGH and MIGHTY lousy attitudes. #GoAWAY Felicia

Not to mention by them fighting it the other side released retails of just how deep they went down the rabbit hole in their deceit, including pictures of Olivia Jade posing like she was an athlete and the pics she was photoshopped in later. That girl is really lucky they didn't come after her as well because I think she was very complicit in everything that happened.
There's been an interesting sea change as of late where people are seriously fed up with the crap arrogant rich people get away with and are acting accordingly. And unlike Felicity (who was very humble about the whole thing), I don't think Lori has a chance in hell of bouncing back.

I think the whole designation of "essential workers" - which does NOT include professional athletes or entertainers - may have made a lot of people re-think what's really important. Do I really like some actors/actresses? Yep. Do I cheer for the Diamondbacks? Yep. But none of them have crossed my mind in the last two months, unless they're saying something stupid. I am now going out of my way to thank the Walmart (and other TRULY essential) employees who are going around with their big carts, shopping for people who will pick up their orders at the curb. I call them "shopping angels." Last time I looked, I didn't see any Kardashians or Loughlins or Kimmels out there helping people in need. They may - and I hope they DO - write checks, but money isn't as scarce for them as it is for others. As far as I'm concerned, the world will go on spinning without any of them. God bless essential workers!!!!

Lots of stories coming out that Kelly Ripa and her family have been in the Bahamas during the entire time she has been doing her remote TV program with Ryan. I guess they were there as a famiy for a 2 week vacation when things shut down, so they stayed rather than go back to NYC.
Interesting, but more interesting is why they did not ever mention it during the show. I remember the first remote show, she was in a room with a huge tropical flower wallpapered on the wall behind her and I just thought briefly that it was an unusual decoration for her to have because it wasn't something that was in style---be it a bathroom or a closet. Now we know.

I'm guessing she was quiet about it because #1 she thought she'd be unfairly judged and #2 it's never wise to publicizing that your house is empty, especially not for an extended (and unknown) period of time.
Kelly & Mark did exactly what we were all asked to do. They stayed put and they didn't allow their parents to come as originally planned. On top of that, very early on, they donated something like a million dollars to help with relief efforts. Kudos to them for that.

I've actually wondered about the impact of so many celebrities having to do appearances from their homes and the security implications. Gavin DeBecker the security expert has advised celebrities for a long time to resist doing things like Architectural Digest shoots, interviews from their homes, etc. because it can give stalkers a sense of connection to their personal lives ... not to mention if too many details are shared it can make planning security breaches easy. So I've wondered how that plays in to a time like this. I think the smart ones have done all appearances from the same spot in their home, and have chosen a spot that shows very little. Using a fake background like Graham Norton an the hosts of The View have done is also smart. While it appears that's done to keep some consistency with studio shows, it also keeps people who would develop an unhealthy connection to them from picking up clues of personal items around their house.
So I don't blame Kelly at all. Disclosing where she is doesn't impact her ability to do her job.

Now we know. I've seen numerous stories about famous or wealthy people and their families hiding out in various locations: islands; yachts; foreign villas; etc. There seems to be an attitude running through all of these stories of disapproval & criticism of these people. Calling them entitled, spoiled, and worse. I think it's just jealousy. I have no problem or criticism of anyone who can afford to do this. If I had the resources, you can be darned sure I'd be doing the exact same thing. No guilt at all. I think they are smart and are using the gifts they have to keep themselves & family safe. It's a whole lot better & smarter than those who are running around not bothering to take precautions, or making sure they are being seen as much as possible through this because they think they are somehow above the risk. Plus, they put on this noble act as if they are so concerned, but still right out there where they shouldn't be. I say good for Kelly & family. Keep up the safe behavior.

Yeah, I don't think it's anything more than they got stuck out of town on vacation. Just because they're in a pretty place doesn't mean it isn't a bummer. I'd guess they'd still rather be home. I know several families that ended up sheltering in place with various family members who were just visiting from out of town and then ended up being stuck for a while.
IIRC, they are not in the Bahamas. That was a different vacation. They ARE somewhere in the Caribbean. I'm sure it's beautiful, but I think even paradise starts to lose it's charms when you just want to go home. Think about how happy you are to come home from even a great vacation.

There's a huge difference between being on holiday when a quarantine order breaks and you decide to stay where you are until things get better, and deliberately breaking quarantine and exposing others just because you live in a hotspot like NYC and want to go somewhere "safer" like that blogger from NYC who was showing symptoms, yet decided to drive herself and her 5 kids to Utah in the middle of the pandemic, and the influencer who tested positive and decided to leave NYC to go to the Caribbean. A lot of those areas have limited hospital resources so if you go up there with your diseased ass and start an outbreak the people who live there don't have the resources to pick up and go elsewhere for medical. No one is judging people like Kelly Ripa; they are, however, judging people like the other examples I gave.

No one is judging people like Kelly Ripa; they are, however, judging people like the other examples I gave. I think the big issue in the cases you laid out is the people knew they were infected when they chose to flee! I know a couple of people who live in New York who in mid-March started feeling very uncomfortable being in Manhattan. Each had options outside the city where they could safely escape the city, so they packed their families up in their cars, and drove out of the city to get away from the hot spot. In both cases, I believe they also continued to lay low once they got where they went so if anyone in their family had been unknowingly infected, they gave time for symptoms to show up. I understand the fears and don't have a problem with people like that doing what they can to protect themselves. I've also seen some signs of celebrities who have changed locations during quaritnine. John Legend and Chrissy Tiegen said they rented a house on the beach when it all started so their kids would have a place. From their instagram pics it's apparent they've since returned to their house. No big deal in my book as long as they were healthy and didn't involve a lot of people to move from one location to another. But once you're infected and know it ... rules are different and there's a lot more responsibility!

My son and DIL had baby Scarlett in DEC. DIL's Canadian parents have a second home in Ft Myers, FL. So the kiddos made plans (before Scarlett was even born) to spend DIL's last month of maternity leave in Fort Myers. Son was going to use 4 weeks of his 6 weeks paternity leave. They booked flights. Planned mini side trips booked hotels to Miami Beach, Clearwater Beach and Sand Key Beach. They flew out FEB 15th to FM. By March 1st, they were starting to panic and then that was that. It consumed them with worry. All they wanted to do was get their little family back home to SoCAL. So unlike Kelly Ripa and her family, my kiddos made the decision to LEAVE. Book new flights and head home. There is NO way they were staying in Florida despite how much fun they still had planned. They were worrying about airports and their safety with two babies so equipped with tons of lysol wipes and purell they headed home. We in the meantime were also getting worried. We were thrilled they returned. The minute they walked into their home, they quarantined for ONE MONTH. THANK YOU ZOOM.

More of the Mary-Kate/Oliver mess: Apparently he moved his first wife, children, and his mother in the mansion he was sharing with Mary Kate? Hmmm. Mot everyone is like the Willis/Moore family where the families blend together beautifully, I wonder if they were fighting over this and he was like "I'm done" or he moved them in afterwards?

If they inflated the business and showed false documents to Coty (the company that bought her out) that's a federal offense and one where they could be arrested by.
I've heard different numbers about her business being bandied about. 900 million is the number I've heard the most but apparently she's only made 300 million in sales in the past two years? Nothing to sneeze at, and she sold her shares for 600 million so she's doing more than okay but the Kardashians exaggerate and lie about everything.
