‘Teen Mom’ alum Nathan Griffith arrested for domestic battery

Former “Teen Mom” star Nathan Griffith was arrested for domestic battery after allegedly choking a woman, Page Six can confirm.

According to TMZ, police arrived at the former reality TV star’s home in Delray Beach, Fla. on Friday after he allegedly told his brother-in-law, William, over the phone that he had “lost it,” choked a woman and dragged her up the stairs.

William further claimed to the cops that he then texted Griffith’s girlfriend, who told him she was not OK.

When cops arrived at Griffith’s home, he was allegedly uncooperative and even told the officers that William wasn’t a reliable source because he was “on drugs.”

However, the MTV star had scratches on his neck and back, which he reportedly told the cops came from having sex with his girlfriend.

Griffith— who shares 8-year-old son Kaiser with “Teen Mom” alum Jenelle Evans — has been charged with committing domestic battery by strangulation and is currently being held at the Palm Beach County jail without a bond.

The US Sun was the first to report the arrest.

Although the woman’s name is being protected by cops, Griffith tied the knot with May Oyola, 38, in a secret Miami ceremony back in April 2022. According to The US Sun, she currently lives in the residence where he was arrested.

The former couple are parents to 8-year-old son, Kaiser.

“Teen Mom 2” fans were first introduced to Griffith during Season 5 as Evans’ boyfriend and second baby daddy.

Months after they got engaged, the former couple called it quits after Griffith was arrested on charges of domestic violence. The two decided to give their relationship a second chance before she confirmed that they had called off their engagement for good.

Tom Schwartz on rumors he’s dating Jo Wenberg after divorce

Tom Schwartz is clearing up rumors he’s dating hairstylist Jo Wenberg after divorcing Katie Maloney.

“Jo is a badass hairstylist. … I think she’s a beautiful soul,” the “Vanderpump Rules” star, 40, told Us Weekly Wednesday during a joint interview with Tom Sandoval at their Hollywood bar, Schwartz & Sandy’s.

During this week’s episode of the Bravo reality show, Schwartz told Scheana Shay that he had been up until 4 a.m. “hanging out” with Wenberg, who has consistently worked with the cast since 2015.

However, he denied ever hooking up with her.

“We’re not living together and we’re not dating either, but she’s just someone who I appreciate on a deep level and she’s a really cool human being, and we’re just hanging out,” he told the outlet of his current relationship with Wenberg.

The aftermath of Schwartz’s split from now-ex-wife Katie Maloney is playing out on “Vanderpump Rules” Season 10.

The ups and downs of the couple’s relationship have been captured by Bravo cameras for more than a decade.

Schwartz’s conversation with Shay, 37, about Wenberg was captured by Bravo cameras in July 2022. But that December, fans speculated the two might be more than friends after being spotted in footage of Raquel Leviss’ Instagram Stories from a concert in Los Angeles.

Schwartz — who entertained a brief fling with Leviss, 28, as well during production for Season 10 — told Us Weekly that he is in no way ready for another relationship after his split from Maloney, 36.

“I just got out of a 12-year relationship. I cannot be in a committed — I can’t dive back into another relationship,” the Schwartz & Sandy’s co-founder explained.

Schwartz entertained a brief fling with castmate Raquel Leviss while filming Season 10 of the Bravo reality show.

The pair kissed last year during wedding festivities for co-star Scheana Shay.

“It wouldn’t be fair to the other person ‘cause I’m kind of consumed with, like, business and my family and I’m kind of falling in love with myself all over again.”

Schwartz and Maloney announced their breakup in March 2022 after five years of marriage and more than a decade together. They finalized their divorce the following October.

Maloney explained on a recent episode of “Pump Rules” that Schwartz’s dedication to his new bar was partly to blame for their demise as a couple.

“I’m kind of consumed with, like, business,” Schwartz, who co-founded Schwartz & Sandy’s with best friend Tom Sandoval, said of his current love life.

“I’m trying to be excited for Tom, but this bar has a very complicated history,” she said in a confessional. “It put a massive strain on our relationship. It just was a lot more of a presence in my life than I thought it would be, without me having say over it.”

The “You’re Gonna Love Me” podcast host elaborated, “All of the marital issues and arguments and everything we were having has now just been personified. This bar was the other woman in our marriage.”

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.

Katie Maloney says Tom Schwartz’s bar ‘broke’ their marriage

Katie Maloney has blamed Tom Schwartz’s bar for the demise of their marriage.

Wednesday’s episode saw Schwartz and his business partner Tom Sandoval finally open the doors to their new bar, Schwartz & Sandy’s. The duo hosted a bash for the Daily Mail.

But Maloney broke down in tears over the opening as it reminded her of why the pair’s romance crumbled.

“I’m trying to be excited for Tom, but this bar has a very complicated history,” she said in her confessional. “It put a massive strain on our relationship. It just was a lot more of a presence in my life than I thought it would be, without me having say over it.”

The “Vanderpump Rules” stars were married from 2019 to 2022. They finalized their divorce last October and share joint custody of their dogs.

The exes discussed their ill-fated union and what led to it ultimately crumbling in Wednesday’s episode of “Vanderpump Rules.”

“All of the marital issues and arguments and everything we were having has now just been personified. This bar was the other woman in our marriage, and I’m standing inside of her now,” she added.

The pair sat down for a chat during the opening, at which Schwartz admitted that his focus was primarily on his business ventures and not on his ex.

“In the divorce, I let myself get sucked in,” he told Maloney.

“It nearly broke you, and it nearly broke me,” she chimed in, adding that “it broke us kinda, so was it worth it?”

“Don’t say that,” he said. “Jesus, I don’t know how to answer that. I just don’t want you to ever think that I chose this place over you because I didn’t.”

But Maloney was adamant that Schwartz’s business came first and as a result, their marriage followed in second place.

“Well, I feel like you chose a lot over me,” she explained. “You never chose me in any side, in any argument, even when it was me having your back in things. It just made me feel like you don’t like me.”

The “Vanderpump Rules” stars were married from 2019 until their split in 2022.

“I think a lot of things I was choosing to ignore and choosing to live with and think that it was okay, and it wasn’t okay,” she added.

It seemed as though Maloney’s message finally got through to her ex, who apologized for his actions, saying he’s “trying to move forward and not beat myself up too much, but I’m self-aware.”

“Maybe I wish I had really fought for her, but I think I would’ve been prolonging the pain and making her suffer and detracting from her happiness,” he said in his confessional while holding back tears.

“I’m so madly in love with this whole bar, this lounge, the concept, but sometimes I ask myself, ‘Was it worth it?’ and I don’t know.”

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.

‘I take it too far’

If you’re hoping to see Bravo superfan Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi join the cast of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” one day — don’t hold your breath.

Andy Cohen has explained why we will probably never see the queen of “Jersey Shore” hold a diamond, as they settled their apparent “feud” on Monday’s episode of his SiriusXM radio show “Andy Cohen Live.”

The pair’s “public war” kickstarted last year when Cohen said he will not be casting Snooki on “RHONJ.”

“You were just a little sarcastic so I had to come back,” she explained.

“I said, ‘I don’t see it.’ Right. I was like, ‘I don’t see it at all. Ever,’” Cohen said of Snooki ever joining the franchise. “Now here’s why I said it: I view you as like, one of the faces of MTV and the face of ‘Jersey Shore.’”

“And so to me, it’s like putting Mickey Mouse in a Bugs Bunny cartoon,” he added. “It’s too different. You know what I mean?”

The reality TV star said she was “not mad” about Cohen’s statement, but did add that it was his tone that rubbed her the wrong way.

“I just didn’t like your little, ‘Nah, I’m good,’” she added, to which Cohen responded, “That’s where I take it too far.”

The pair then put their beef aside, with Cohen confirming that they “are not in war” any longer.

Snooki previously told Page Six she doesn’t think she can “hang” with any “Housewives” because she “hates drama.”

Snooki said that Cohen’s tone when explaining why she wouldn’t be cast “rubbed her the wrong way.”

“I’m, like, terrified because some of those girls … they get into it,” she exclusively told us. “Even though I’m on a reality show, I hate drama. I like positivity and I like just having a good time and going home. I just feel like that would be wild.”

Polizzi first made her debut on reality TV in 2009 with the original “Jersey Shore.”

In September 2020 there were rumblings that Bravo scouted the MTV fixture as a possible New Jersey “Real Housewife.”

However, Snooki immediately shut those rumors down, writing on Instagram, “Idk how this started but I have not been asked to be a housewife. Sowwyyyyy.”

Braunwyn Windham-Burke sparks engagement rumors with girlfriend

Braunwyn Windham-Burke began the new year with some bling and a “promise.”

The “Real Housewives of Orange County” alum and her girlfriend of less than five months, Jennifer Spinner, sported flashy diamond rings in Windham-Burke’s quickly deleted Instagram Story Monday, sparking engagement rumors.

“We started 2023 with a promise ❤️,” the former reality star wrote atop a photo of her left hand placed over Spinner’s right as the two were in a car, road-tripping from Wilmington, NC, to Charleston, SC.

Braunwyn Windham-Burke sparked engagement rumors with her girlfriend, Jennifer Spinner.

While both women showed off silver eternity bands, Windham-Burke’s was notably on her left ring finger — where an engagement ring would normally go.

“You really never know. Braunwyn is Braunwyn!” a source close to the mother of seven — who came out as a lesbian in 2020 — tells Page Six exclusively regarding a potential proposal. “I do know that the two are madly in love.”

The two sported diamond rings in the “RHOC” alum’s Instagram Story Monday.

Our insider adds that Windham-Burke’s children — Bella, 22, Rowan, 20, Jacob, 17, twins Caden and Curren, 9, Koa, 7, and Hazel, 4 — as well as her estranged husband, Sean Burke, “love” Spinner.

Additionally, we’re told there is a significant reason behind the lovebirds’ road trip, as they are “searching for a forever home for the family.”

Page Six is told the lovebirds are road-tripping in search of “a forever home for the family.”

Our source says the couple are looking in the Southern states and also have plans to check out Tennessee.

They seemed to be particularly taken by Wilmington, though, calling the historic, riverfront city “pretty great” in Windham-Burke’s videos.

The couple checked out Wilmington, NC.

“We are looking for a place to raise the little kids,” the ex-Bravolebrity, 45, said in one clip, adding, “The people have been so nice.”

Spinner, 38 — who splits her time between New York and Germany — pointed out that her family also lives in Wilmington.

Spinner has been dating the mother of seven since August 2022.

braunwynwindhamburke/Instagram

Although Windham-Burke — who filed for divorce from Burke in October — previously said she most likely wouldn’t get married again, she admitted she might “change [her] mind” for Spinner — her first “mentally stable” partner.

“There would be something nice [about] walking down an aisle and see[ing her] waiting for me,” Windham told us last month. “That would be pretty beautiful.”

“I love her. I love her so much,” she added. “I just, I love her.”

Teresa Giudice avoiding ‘toxicity’ in 2023 amid Joe Gorga feud

Haters are gonna hate, but she just loves, loves, loves.

Teresa Giudice told People that if there’s one thing she’s planning to avoid in 2023, it’s “toxicity, definitely toxicity.”

“You can manifest what you want in 2023. We’ve done that before,” the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, 50, added.

Giudice’s New Year’s resolution admission comes amid her ongoing feud with brother Joe Gorga and his wife, Melissa Gorga. Tension began after the Gorgas skipped Giudice’s wedding to Luis “Louie” Ruelas.

Ruelas, 47, seemed supportive of his wife’s resolution, telling the outlet they plan to do a burning ceremony with friends.

Teresa Giudice divulged that she’s avoiding “toxicity” in 2023 amid her ongoing feud with her brother and sister-on-law, Joe and Melissa Gorga.

“We’re going to go to a place where there’s a little fire, and everyone’s going to have pieces of paper,” he explained. “We’re going to write down some things we want to let go of in 2022. Burn it and let it go, walk away holding hands, don’t look back.”

He added, “It kind of cleans out your mental storage, cleans out what’s of the forefront of your mind, really.”

Giudice and Ruelas are hosting a burning ceremony with close friends.

As for what Giudice does hope for in the upcoming year, the reality star emphasized “peace, love, happiness” and health.

“Life is short, it’s very valuable, so you have to value the time that you have on this earth and surround yourself with good people, good vibes, people that are happy for you,” she said, adding that it’s a lesson she also wants to teach her children.

Giudice and her brother have yet to repair their fractured relationship.

“I just want to have a great time, because being in this world, you get used and abused, and Louie, he’s new at it, so it’s like I’m protecting him from all that,” Giudice concluded.

“I’ve been doing this for a while now, and so, I know the games, I know everything that comes along with it, unfortunately.”

Page Six previously reported that the Gorgas were skipping Giudice and Ruelas’ nuptials on Aug. 6.

Unfortunately, there was no Christmas miracle that reunited Giudice and Ruelas with the Gorgas, both 43, as they didn’t celebrate the holidays together.

And while the four previously discussed their falling out several times, fans will finally be able to see the chaos themselves when it all goes down on Season 13 of “RHONJ.”

‘Big Brother’ alum Alyssa Lopez shamed for returning to job at Hooters

She’s a jack of owl trades.

Alyssa Lopez, who competed on Season 23 of “Big Brother” as well as “The Challenge: USA,” blasted a boob who shaded her for returning to her serving job at Hooters.

“A certain person from #bb23 is back working at Hooters,” the troll tweeted Saturday.

Lopez worked at Hooters before her stint on reality TV. She was even pictured on a Hooters billboard and on taxi tops in 2018.

“I’m confused why you think I should be embarrassed by this?” the 26-year-old Floridian responded Monday in a tweet. “To be able to pay my rent from 2 shifts at Hooters is amazing!”

“So many reality TV stars have actual jobs,” she added. “We are normal human beings. I’m just real enough to show it. Come in my next shift I’II buy you a shot.”

Season 16 “Big Brother” alum Donny Thompson offered his two cents, revealing his less-than-glamorous reality.

“I hope no one tells that lady that the old guy from BB16 had to unclog a toilet today at work. #MaintenanceMan,” he joked.

Lopez, who also founded a social media agency, added that she didn’t expect her tweet to attract so much attention. She doubled down in another tweet, writing: “NO SHAME IN GETTING YOUR BAG.”

“You do you queen,” the Hooters account responded Tuesday with the clapping hands emoji.

Lopez came in seventh place on “Big Brother,” which aired last year. She and fellow contestant Christian Birkenberger left the house as a couple before realizing they were better off as friends.

Kendall Jenner peed in ice bucket on way to Met Gala 2022

She may have gotten a little pee on her Prada.

Kendall Jenner had to use an ice bucket to relieve herself on the way to the 2022 Met Gala.

In the latest episode of “The Kardashians,” the model was on her way to fashion’s biggest night in May when she just couldn’t hold it in any longer.

“I need to drink a sip of water, and I need to pee. Nobody judge me,” Jenner told her entourage of assistants and helpers in a sprinter van.

While initially laughing off the suggestion of using an empty ice bucket, the 27-year-old ultimately decided to go for it.

“That is so mortifying for whoever has to deal with my pee later. I’m so sorry,” she said.

It’s unclear which unlucky team member ended up with the dirty job later that night, but one person in the van jokingly asked if she could sell the urine, while another assured her that peeing in a bucket is a common occurrence for artists in the middle of concerts.

Jenner — who earlier admitted her flowing black outfit was so heavy that she was out of breath just walking to the van — asked someone to put on music as she hiked up her skirt to place the bucket underneath her.

“Prada, I’m so sorry!” she said before admitting she’d just peed on her feet accidentally.

In a confessional, Jenner said going to the bathroom in the van was the “best decision” she’d ever made.

She apologized to whoever got stuck cleaning the mess up.

FilmMagic

“I don’t know what I would have done when I got inside,” she admitted.

Jenner notably bleached her eyebrows and wore a sheer black crop top at the event that evening, mentioning in the episode that she looked like an “alien.”

She said that if there was any time to just go for it and do something different, the Met Gala was that night.

She also apologized to Prada, the designer she was wearing at the gala.

Meanwhile, her sister Kim Kardashian was having her own pre-Met Gala drama as she missed her drop-off and had to be escorted back down the block to put on the iconic Marilyn Monroe dress she wore.

This year’s gala marked the first time all sisters were in attendance at the fashion event.

New episodes of “The Kardashians” air Thursdays on Hulu.

‘Bachelor in Paradise’ alums Joe Amabile, Serena Pitt get married

Joe Amabile — AKA “Grocery Store Joe” — and Serena Pitt got married Thursday at New York City’s City Hall.

The “Bachelor in Paradise” couple stunned fans when they posted an Instagram video of their nuptials nearly one year before their original wedding day next September.

“JUST MARRIED !!” Pitt and Amabile captioned their joint announcement on Thursday. “We are still having a wedding this September but who doesn’t want to get married twice!”

The lovebirds also shared a full one-minute and fifty-second video of the ceremony — which Natasha Parker, who co-hosts the podcast “Click Bait” with Amabile, filmed as their witness — on their YouTube channel.

In the video, fans could see the legal presider asking them to say “I do” as they held hands and wore face masks.

After they were pronounced legally married, the couple tore off their masks and embraced each other with a hug and several kisses.

The couple wanted to have a private moment for themselves as they plan their wedding.

Neither Pitt, 25, nor Amabile, 26, went with traditional wedding attire. The bride wore a cream long-sleeve top with black leather pants and black boots, while the groom wore a navy quarter zip sweater, black pants and white sneakers.

“We have always known marriage was in our future, it just looked a little bit different than we expected,” the couple told People on Thursday.

Pitt and Amabile added that they’re “already planning” their wedding next year, but they wanted a “private moment just the two of us” that “felt so special and intimate.”

Bachelor Nation immediately flooded the couple’s post with sweet comments.

“Congrats you two!!!! (For the record I’m ALL about getting married 2x)❤️❤️❤️,” host Jesse Palmer, who had a second wedding to Emely Fardo in France two years after eloping in Connecticut, commented.

Pitt and Amabile’s engagement aired on “BIP” a little more than a year ago.

Lisa Rinna says ‘RHOBH’ needs a ‘break’ after ‘horrible’ season

A “hot” Lisa Rinna, who was “dripping sweat” during BravoCon interviews, suggested that “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” should take a “break.”

The veteran Bravolebrity — who’s held a CGI diamond since 2014 — described Season 12 as “f–king rough,” “brutal” and “horrible” while chatting with Derek Zagami at the Javits Center in New York City this past weekend.

When asked what takeaways she could possibly implement into next season, Rinna, 59, began to say that she needs a break … but quickly corrected herself.

“I don’t know. I need a–we need a break. We need time,” she said, elaborating that she feels the ladies could benefit from “time to let it settle.”

“You know, I hope that we can, um, move forward,” she added.

During the three-part Season 12 reunion, which is still airing, Bravo boss Andy Cohen scolds Rinna for her “disastrous” social media activity, which prompts the reality star to tauntingly urge him to “put [her] on pause!”

The line is a reference to Cohen’s 2020 decision to fire “Real Housewives of New York City” alum Dorinda Medley, remaining hopeful at the time that her departure was simply a “pause.”

She recently flipped off fans at BravoCon after they booed her.

Despite the “WAP” rapper’s recent robbery she was all smiles…

As for Rinna — who wears Kathy Hilton’s “biggest bully in Hollywood” jab with pride — she has leaned all the way into her villain era.

In fact, after BravoCon attendees booed her last Friday, she held up her middle finger and proudly made her way across the stage to sit with her co-stars.

Many believe the former soap opera star knows her time with the network is up and is choosing to go out with a bang.

Back in August, however, a source told Page Six that the QVC maven was very much still on the show and insisted anything suggesting otherwise — including Rinna’s own Instagram posts — was simply not true.
