Mormon Wives’ Demi Talks ‘Awkward’ Fallout of Fruity Pebbles Revelation

The Secret Lives of Mormon WivesDemi Engemann is addressing the fallout from Jessi Ngatikaura’s Fruity Pebbles revelation.

Jessi, 33, dropped a bomb on her former friend just before Thanksgiving when she made public a sex act that Demi, 31, engaged in with her husband, Bret Engemann, which was teased during season 1 of the hit Hulu reality show.

“Since she wants to be petty and be an a**hole, I think I am just going to go ahead and say that grandpa Bret likes to drink her piss like it is dirty soda,” Jessi said in an Instagram Story video on November 25. “He gulps it down like water. And that is what ‘Fruity Pebbles’ means.”

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight published on Thursday, December 4, Demi confessed that Jessi outing her and Bret made things a little awkward around the dinner table at Thanksgiving.

Biggest Claims About Demi’s Alleged Affair From the ‘Mormon Wives’ Reunion

“It’s an awkward topic, not gonna lie,” Demi told the outlet. “I had to go to Thanksgiving the next day. It was not ideal.”

Despite her initial shock at Jessi going public with the couple’s sex act, Demi said she and Bret decided to lean into the controversy.

“Fruity Pebbles has been a topic that we’ve all teased and talked about for so long and as much as it was a private moment, and we never planned on sharing this ourselves, we have nothing else left to do other than just own it and have fun with it,” Demi said.

She continued, “I think I just thought that it’s out there and it’s going to be talked about … I was able to handle the comments and everything with just more levity, which was nice.”

Demi and Jessi fell out during season 2 of Mormon Wives, with their relationship only deteriorating further in season 3, which saw Jessi reveal her affair with Vanderpump Villa’s Marciano Brunette. Marciano also claimed he kissed Demi, which she has denied.

“There are things that people have seen on camera, there’s things that people haven’t seen, and I’m kind of at peace with it,” Demi said of her feud with Jessi. “Whereas, I do feel like Jessi does take a lot of time out of her life to make it a point to dislike me.”

The influencer said she hasn’t closed the door completely on her friendship with Jessi.

“On my end, 100 percent,” Demi responded when asked if there’s a chance of the two reconciling. “If Whitney [Leavitt] and Mikayla [Matthews] can become friends again, there’s hope for Demi and Jessi.”

“And at the end of the day, like, I never wish anyone ill will and I don’t want to ever see anyone fail or suffer. I want to see her do well and I hope she is doing well,” she added.

At the time of Jessi’s Fruity Pebbles revelation, Demi issued a statement via Instagram, writing, “What my husband and I did one time behind closed doors was a consensual and private experience in our marriage.”

“I won’t let a private act between my husband and I be a distraction from a serious act that I did not consent to,” she added, referring to her allegations that Marciano touched her without consent.

‘RHOBH’ Stars Tease Season 15 ‘Issues’ at BravoCon: Biggest Revelations

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars are about to serve up an explosive season 15.

The “Livin’ in Beverly Hills” panel took place on Friday, November 14, at BravoCon 2025 and featured the show’s cast — Kathy Hilton, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, Jennifer Tilly, Kyle Richards, Bozoma Saint John, Sutton Stracke and Rachel Zoe — giving a first look at what’s to come.

One clip from season 15 featured Dorit reacting to the photos of estranged husband PK Kemsley “kissing another woman” in the streets. (Dorit and PK separated in May 2024. She filed for divorce one year later.)

“I felt like, ‘That’s it,’” she said. “That man, there on the street, I don’t know him.”

‘RHOBH’ Season 15 Trailers Teases Rachel Zoe’s Arrival, Denise Richards Cameo

A separate moment showed Kyle and her four daughters — Farrah, 37, Alexia, 29, Sophia, 25, and Portia, 17 — reacting to Mauricio Umansky’s rather public love life. (Kyle and Mauricio separated in July 2023.)

“The last time there was paparazzi pictures of him with some girl at the valet, I texted him and was like, ‘You are doing the absolute most. Tone it down,’” Sophia said. Portia, meanwhile, told her friends that Mauricio is “being a hoe.”

Aside from the women and their relationship issues, Rachel’s return to Bravo seems to be making the most buzz as she got the loudest applause from the crowd. Sutton also confirmed that viewers will get to see what really went down between her and former assistant Avi Gabay.

Keep scrolling for the biggest revelations from the RHOBH BravoCon 2025 panel:

Tension at the Reunion

Kyle noted that Dorit will have the most to answer for when the women film their season 15 reunion. Dorit fired back saying, “I’ll have the most to say.”

“Avi and I had a great run. We had a lot of fun,” Sutton said. “My life has changed. I don’t have any kids at home … I can make my own dentist appointments … I didn’t need a personal assistant … He’s a great guy.”

Erika and Dorit Are Feuding

The RHOBH season 15 trailer teased some drama between Erika and Dorit — and they addressed it on Friday.

“I love Dorit, I lost it on Dorit,” Erika admitted.

Are Kyle and Dorit Friends Again?

There are still some lingering issues between the longtime pals.

“Coming into this season, we were able to make progress and then we made three steps forward and maybe four steps back,” Kyle explained. “There’s a lot of love there and things have been difficult, but I hope to get back there.”

Where They Stand With Garcelle Beauvais

Garcelle departed the show in March after season 14 came to an end, walking out during the reunion. While on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen earlier this year, Garcelle said she is the most open about reconciling with Kyle — which surprised the women.

“I wish she would have shown me that in person,” Kyle said. “I was really taken aback when she walked off the set at the reunion and unfollowed everybody.”

Sutton and Garcelle haven’t spoken, despite their close friendship on the show.

“As far as I was concerned we were still friends and then she never talked to me again and blocked me on Instagram,” Sutton said. However, she has since “gotten to know these women so much better and feel really bonded now in a way I didn’t feel before.”

More Drama Than Amsterdam

The RHOBH season 5 trip to Amsterdam was iconic, but this season might have its own drama-filled trip.

“Let’s just say it’s what led to the issues between the three of us [Kyle, Dorit and Erika] … it was a very dramatic situation, there was a lot of yelling, screaming and tears,” Kyle teased. “Everyone was left with their mouth hanging open.”

Nathalie Kelley Reveals Ryan Phillippe’s Dynamic With Son on ‘Motorheads’ Set

Nathalie Kelley is opening up about her experience working with Ryan Phillippe and his son, Deacon Phillippe, on the set of their show Motorheads.

“[Deacon is] the most charismatic, polite, thoughtful young man I have ever met,” Kelley, 40 exclusively told Us Weekly on Monday, November 10, referring to Phillippe’s son, whom he shares with ex-wife Reese Witherspoon, adding that he “gives me hope for the entire gender of men.

“I’m like, wow! If this is what the new generation of men are coming out, looking like, sounding like, acting like, then I feel more at ease about the future of our species,” she continued, while promoting the upcoming short film Yachapa, which highlights Quechua weavers and alpaquero families in Peru, and her partnership with alpaca fiber apparel PAKA. “Honestly, what an incredible young man.”

She also recalled how overjoyed Ryan was to let Deacon spread his wings for the Amazon Prime drama.

“I think it was [Deacon’s] first major acting role, and super sweet to see the father-son dynamic and how proud Ryan was,” Kelley said. “Ryan was trying to navigate how much to interfere and how much to let him be in his own process. I learned a lot from having my own kids on the show, from observing Ryan as a father and just realizing, like, how beautiful that the cycle of life is.”

Kelley explained that her time on the Motorheads set also “taught me a lot about motherhood,” describing the experience as “a really transformative process for me.”

“Because at the end of it, I decided that I actually did want to have children, and before that, I hadn’t wanted to. So it’s really beautiful how art and life mimic and imitate and feed one another,” she added. “I’ll always be grateful to Motorheads for giving me that kind of awakening and realization.

Kelley, who was born in Peru before moving to Australia, has already had a full circle moment in her partnership with PAKA, fulfilling a two-decade promise to herself.

Ryan Phillippe Shows Off His Rock-Hard Abs at Age 50

“I grew up in Australia, which is [on] the other side of the world from Peru, and when I came home for the first time after moving there very young, I saw so much injustice and so many wrongs that I wanted to right when it came to my indigenous community. And I made a promise when I was 18 years old, that one day I was going to do something to right these wrongs and to make up for the fact that I had left,” she said. “I’d never forgotten that promise.”

For Kelley, accomplishing that goal was “my sweet surprise full circle moment.” And she’s not done yet.

The “Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift” star has “found a purpose” after reconnecting with her Peruvian roots.

“It feels like it’s just the beginning,” she told Us. “I realize that what they are looking for, beyond help, is allyship, and what Kris [Cody] is doing with PAKA, and what I can do as a storyteller with influence, with global influence, is be their allies and stand by and stand beside them.”

Kelley said they are shining a light on “a supply chain that needs a lot of justice and reorienting, so that we can make sure that the people behind the alpaca fiber are being honored, as well as the animals and the ecosystems.”

She also shared that it’s important the local Quechua weavers are “being properly compensated and integrated into the supply chain in a meaningful and just way.”

“This is just the first step. Kris and I have a lifelong mission there,” Kelley teased.

Stefon Diggs Reveals Sex of Baby With Cardi B, Hints She’s Due ‘Soon’

Stefon Diggs is preparing for dad mode as pregnant girlfriend Cardi B’s due date draws closer.

“It’s supposed to happen real soon,” Diggs, 31, told Extra at the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards on Monday, November 3, teasing when the couple’s little one is due.

The New England Patriots receiver will be new to parenthood, so he asked the reporter and fans to “wish us both luck” on the journey.

Diggs also revealed the sex of his and Cardi’s baby during the New York City event, telling People, “It’s a boy.”

NFL Star Stefon Diggs Reacts to Girlfriend Cardi B’s Pregnancy Reveal

When asked what he’s most excited about once the baby arrives, Diggs said having a son is “enough” for him.

“I can’t wait to make him do push-ups and sit-ups and run around,” the NFL player added.

Cardi, 33, previously hinted at wanting a baby boy with Diggs on the song “On My Back” from her album Am I the Drama, which dropped in September.

“I be staring in your eyes through the whole day / I swear to God, I hope our kids have your whole face,” the lyrics read. “Take these clothes off and throw ’em on the floor / I told my girl I’m ’bout to give this man a boy / Throw me on my back.”

Pregnant Cardi B Rocks Sheer Dress With Cutouts for 33rd Birthday

Diggs was first linked to Cardi in October 2024 after the rapper filed for divorce from Offset that July. Cardi and Offset, 33, were married six years before their split and share three children: Kulture, 7, Wave, 4, and Blossom, 13 months.

While Cardi initially denied she was dating Diggs, the pair continued to fuel romance rumors. In June, the Grammy winner confirmed her relationship with Diggs via social media by sharing a cozy photo with him on a yacht.

Three months later, Cardi announced her pregnancy with baby No. 4, her first with Diggs. “I am having a baby with my boyfriend,” she told Gayle King during an appearance on CBS Mornings in September. “I’m excited.”

Who Is Stefon Diggs? 5 Things to Know About the NFL Player

Weeks before Cardi confirmed her pregnancy, Diggs responded to a lawsuit filed by Aileen Lopera in December 2024, who claimed that he is the father of her 7-month-old baby girl.

Us Weekly confirmed that Diggs said in a July 17 filing that he was certain he was not the father of Lopera’s daughter, Charliee, who was born on April 2. He requested “genetic testing to determine” whether he is the father and asked the court for joint legal and physical custody of the child if the test proves paternity.

Amid the drama, Diggs has been focused on football, and Cardi has been his No. 1 supporter.

Cardi B Says Stefon Diggs Was ‘Very Respectful’ of Her Past Relationship

The musician was spotted at the Patriots’ home game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, November 2. Cardi sat next to Patriots’ owner Robert Kraft at Gillette Stadium wearing a burgundy coat that barely covered her growing baby bump.

Cardi later shared a series of photos from the game, which the Patriots won 24-23, via social media, including a snap of Diggs bending down to caress her belly.

“PAT NATION ❤️🤍💙,” she captioned the Instagram upload on Monday.

Diggs replied in the comments section, “Goodluck charmmm huh ? 🙂‍↕️😏💞,” hinting that Cardi’s presence helped the team be victorious.

Andy Richter Reflects on His Weight in the Public Eye Amid ‘DWTS’ Success

Andy Richter is reflecting on his weight struggles in the public eye after revealing that he’s dropped a few pounds because of Dancing With the Stars.

Richter, 59, was in conversation with Colin Hanks during the Tuesday, November 4, episode of SiriusXM’s “The Three Questions with Andy Richter” podcast. Hanks, 47, was on the show to discuss directing Prime Video’s John Candy: I Like Me documentary when the topic of weight came up.

Hanks detailed how the late Candy’s weight was always discussed in interviews when Richter lamented on the early days of his own career.

“The first thing that comes to mind is one of my standard lines about what it was like to start in 1993 on Late Night With Conan O’Brien — that being the first thing I had ever done,” Richter said. “I had acted, but nothing that had ever gotten any attention or that was out even. I had already done the movie Cabin Boy, but it wasn’t out yet.”

Andy Richter Reveals His Biggest Fears and Insecurities About ‘DWTS’

He added, “One of my standard lines is, ‘I didn’t know there were so many ways to call someone fat.’ Because it was just cherubic, rotund, all these different [words].”

Richter said the way he was described was “galling” to him.

“They don’t say anything about my good, strong teeth. But they have to mention that,” he continued, noting that there’s a “comedy” aspect as well. Richter even admitted to joking about his own weight struggles.

“I would always say it’s skinny and fatty,” Richter recalled. “That’s a comedy trope. It was always kind of that thing.”

Richter has been candid about discussing his recent transformation since making his DWTS debut in September alongside professional dance partner Emma Slater.

The comedian said on the “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” podcast last month that he initially didn’t want to be on DWTS but decided to use the show as a way to “get moving” in his daily life.

“It got me to go to the gym and do cardio, which I loathe. I started to do a lot more stretching just to kind of prepare myself,” he said. “I was terrified that I was going to get injured or that I just wouldn’t be able to do it. And then would have to pull out and be embarrassed.”

Andy Richter Nearly Didn’t Do ‘DWTS’: ‘Turn It Down and Don’t Tell Anyone’

Slater, 36, mentioned that Richter has lost weight during last week’s prerecorded package ahead of their performance.

“I was thinking I won’t be able to cut it,” Richter said in one rehearsal package. “Now I have to admit all this physical activity has made me feel better about myself.”

He added, “I definitely felt like, ‘Well, I’m older now, I can’t do as much as I used to.’ And now, I’m like, ‘Yes you can, you lazy bum.’ I just feel like a better person now. I feel more alive.”

Richter’s continued success in the competition has received mixed reactions from viewers. Some DWTS fans want him to win, while others hope the comedian gets eliminated.

“It is an entertainment show, and it is for people that have not done this before, and so it’s beautiful to watch them get a moment in the spotlight and to grow and to see improvement,” Slater told Us Weekly exclusively last month. “He, every bit, deserves his place here.”
