town with one question on everyone's mind what did willem do reports stated that willem had a surprise visit by her husband if you know what we mean supposed to be quarantined she also wasn't supposed to tell anyone she was doing drag race but did however willem later admitted that this was just the cover story so the conjugal reason aft that's what they came up with to like make sure everybody you know looks good i wasn't trying to make them look bad so i was like i'll go with the story xyz i knew that all stars was coming i wanted to play along to get on that the truth is she actually broke several rules including going out with the girls to get things the production team wouldn't to make a long story short when initially asked what she did she replied what didn't i do number 16 cat

conversations between the two overton ended up being arrested due to three outstanding warrants number 15 jillian michael's supplement scandal the biggest loser working out with me for the first time can be rough on a person and often they throw up and cry in 2013 biggest loser viewers were shocked when it turned out that trainer jillian michaels gave caffeine supplements to her team members to boost their performance you don't have what it takes i'm going to find out this week these supplements were given without a doctor's permission which resulted in a four pound penalty all results from the previous week were also declared invalid however michaels defended herself saying that her team didn't have an unfair advantage the only regret she has over the incident is that her professional opinion ultimately hurt her team members michaels also believed that the judges were looking to punish her team in order to bring back popular contestant ruben studdard so was it a ploy or a doping scandal it's good to be back number 14 jeffrey paschall's past 90 day fiance before the 90 days i think that we're going to have this instant utter connection 90 day fiance fans were not impressed when they discovered jeffrey paschall's dark persona he may seem sweet but the truth was paschal was arrested in 2019 for kidnapping and domestic assault on his former fiancee viewers urged tlc to ax him and the network reportedly refused to let him come back for the reunion episode in his instagram post paschal defended himself saying it's his past his life and his choice he added that he can never go back and wouldn't want to have it any different way the past couple of years have been extremely extremely hard however we're pretty sure he was singing a different tune when he was convicted of the crime in october 2021 and subsequently sentenced to 18 years in prison number 13 phil robertson's homophobic remarks duck dynasty duck dynasty patriarch phil robertson came under fire after a controversial gq interview he was quick to point out that he believes a relationship between same-sex people is sinful his son alan defended his views and went as far as comparing his dad to john the

and cited that the family apologized for the statements number 12 kim and chris's marriage and split keeping up with the kardashians all eyes were on this kardashian sister when she married basketball player chris humphries on august 20th 2011. only 72 days later kim caused a whole new media frenzy when she filed for divorce what followed was a high-profile split perfect for the tabloids with humphries asking for an annulment on the basis of fraud rather than a divorce some news outlets even accused kardashian of using the marriage as a publicity stunt after a long and public legal battle kim and chris finalized their divorce in june 2013. number 11 corey clark and paula abdul american idol [Music] this hit singing competition has had a fair amount of drama over the years like any good reality show but a contestant having an affair with a judge is something else entirely the show's second season had an elimination bombshell corey clark was disqualified after making it to the top nine reason well officially it was due to clark's failure to disclose an arrest record but it also may reportedly have had to do with his shocking relationship with paula abdul it's really refreshing i've said it before your voice is really refreshing especially when you go up in your upper register although abdul never confirmed the relationship clark became very open about his experiences over the years and even ended up suing e-television network for an allegedly unfair portrayal of his character did you have a sexual relationship with her yes ma'am we did number 10 the whole show kid

press the kids had to sign a 22-page long waiver that stated cbs wasn't responsible if the kids fell sick what happened what happened it was also revealed that a few kids were seriously injured on set like it's going down so fast that i don't like taste since the show aired the contestants shared their own individual experiences of what they went through and let's just say it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows it sounds like they didn't clue you in on much then yeah i also probably wasn't listening very well because i was eight number nine the pretty woman costume toddlers and tiaras in season four of this often criticized tlc series three-year-old paisley was dressed as julia roberts character vivian ward from pretty woman even in an industry frequently accused of sexualizing girls this

thought it would be funny rather than provocative despite the backlash this pageant princess now a teenager has moved on to small roles in tv and movies in a series rife with controversy this remains one of the most talked about moments number eight abby lee miller goes to jail dance moms miller was known for her brutal treatment on dance moms she deserves nothing but no one expected she'd end up in actual prison and no it wasn't for screaming at kids or fighting with moms miller allegedly had employees sneak more than 120 000 after a trip to australia she was also charged with bankruptcy fraud it turned out she was concealing more than 700 000 from the proceedings she ended up serving eight months in prison and continued to film dance moms after she was released in miller's words her incarceration only made her tougher i thought she would come out of jail nicer but we're talking about billy miller number seven mama june's new boyfriend here comes honey boo boo not so long ago honey boo boo and her family were tlc staples [Music] all that came to an end in 2014 however when mama june reportedly started dating mark mcdaniel mcdaniel is a convicted criminal even worse it came to light that one of his victims was honey boo boo's older sister anna he made me watch porn he tried to have sex with me he stripped me down unsurprisingly tlc axed the series while no longer working

i've seen a lot of changes in her she like walks on the house naked and stuff she's just like number six brooks ayers fakes cancer the real housewives of orange county he has not shown me anything that says he has cancer if you saw season 10 of the real housewives of orange county you know the scandal that surrounded brooks airs most of the season focused on his health while others questioned his diagnosis the first few days are bad huh well four days pretty brutal however heirs stood by the fact that he had cancer and was receiving treatment he even said that his cast mates just want to fabricate drama however a few months down the line e news reported that he was actually lying after the hospital he claimed he went to confirmed they never treated him i'm sure she was exhausted with that melanie and i can't say that i blame her knowing he was finally caught heirs eventually admitted that he was in fact lying about his diagnosis wow number five teresa and joe go to jail the real housewives of new jersey the real housewives franchise is all about the drama just ask kenya and portia shut up yeah while porsha was arrested and released for assault jersey housewife theresa judice

2008. that october teresa was sentenced to 15 months in jail while joe was sentenced to 41 months after 11 months in prison teresa was released in december 2015. after being released in 2019 joe returned to his native italy rather than await a deportation decision as this reality couple proves all that glitters is not gold you do grow and you learn from your experiences and that's obviously what happened to me number four john and kate's divorce kate plus eight with twins and sextuplets the gosselins were reality royalty but in 2009 their show and picture perfect family fell apart we

circulated but were never confirmed did i ever think i would be in this situation in this position absolutely not ever in 2018 john was awarded custody of children hannah and colin after kate had enrolled the latter in an inpatient facility john went on the dr oz show in 2019 to voice some of his struggles post-divorce it got to a point where i couldn't defend myself because kate's show continued clearly the divorce hasn't been easy especially on the children only time will tell if this famous family ever makes amends number three the turkey slap incident big brother australia this
