It's time for the almost famous podcast. Yes, it is the offseason, but no, no, we aren't slowing down. We got a lot of good interviews this week. In fact, Ashley is going to be sitting down with Gabby from this last season of The Bachelor.

And today, we are stacked with headlines. But before headlines, one of my favorite things about the off season is getting to catch up with my co-host. So, Ashley, you were currently at your parents' house. Why are you there? What is going on in life? How are you doing? What is going on in my life? We are just spending the week at my parents' house.

wanted to come here for Easter. My mom always makes Easter really fun for us. We do like an adult Easter egg hunt. And we got to do our first Easter egg hunt for Dawson this year, which is really exciting. He was not getting it at first, but then he really started rolling with it, which is pretty awesome. Really, really adorable. Yeah.

So we're just spending the week here. We haven't been here since the end of January. And in kid time and infant toddler time, that's a long time. Um, my mom has seen Dawson since, but my dad hasn't seen him since January. So, oh, wow. Yeah. That's exciting. What a time. Uh, I hope the holidays was something special. Uh, it is. It was. It was so cute. It is an incredible time to be alive. It's a lot of fun. I got to see a lot of kids. I went out to the golf course, uh, for a few hours that day. I got to see a lot of kids kind of running around the golf course. Uh, Jessica and I had an amazing dinner, uh, that evening together. It's weird. Uh,

celebrating the holidays without family, but it is also very special because I get to spend it with my wife and just the two of us and our dog. That is nice. Today, Dawson got to meet some real bunnies at the zoo. We went to like this, it's a small little zoo. Okay. By my parents' house, like 10 minutes away. They've got a few monkeys and they've got your farm animals, bunnies. And then we had to get, we, we had a private meeting with a baby kangaroo. let's go yeah that's awesome that's incredible that's fun i mean these memories for you have to be special right i mean just this season of life where dawson is seeing things for the first time there's a curiosity there's a confusion maybe like this has to be a really cool season of life

it is when we're in the room with a kangaroo it's like funny you know he's 14 months he has no idea that it's a rare thing to be in a room alone with the kangaroo he's like ah maybe this is just what we do sometimes yeah he's like how is this any different than lowest uh that's good that's so good well uh today's my first day of feeling better i've been sick since my columbia trip and so i hope my voice sounds uh less scratchy less stuffed um today i woke up and i said i feel good And so I am working around the house, making sure this place is ready to go because it's spring cleaning time. Yeah, spring cleaning time. It's a big time in my life.

This is one of my favorite times. Spring has really sprung early. I'm a month away from starting my garden. You know how exciting that makes me? Is your garden food or is it flowers? It's not the modern like new age garden of flowers. No, this is food. This is stuff we will eat.

We will consume. I'm very proud of my peppers and my tomatoes. tomatoes and my carrots. I take a lot of pride in them. So what a time to be alive, but it is also a big time for The Bachelor. There's a lot of headlines today that we have to break down. Ashley, let's dive into them. Again, I want to remind you that Ashley is going to be spending some time with Gabby this week. That episode is going to be posted on our thread as well. It's going to be a really incredible episode. Gabby hasn't done a ton of interviews yet. I know she sat down with Caitlin.

She wants to sit down with Ashley. I think it's going to be an interview that I am very intrigued by. And so make sure you tune in to listen to that. But today. And DM me your questions for her if you have something that she hasn't discussed yet. Okay. That's good. Yeah, because the fans always have questions that maybe you and I wouldn't think of.

Like they're curious about of great things. And so if you haven't heard Gabby speak to something, yes, please DM Ashley. She will make sure to get to those. Ashley, we do have a lot of headlines. Let's dive into it right now. Bachelor alum, Teddy Wright. You remember Teddy. She was a hit on the beach this year. Ended up leaving earlier than expected. I would say kind of out of nowhere, just maybe wasn't feeling it. Well, now we maybe have a little bit of an idea where her life was headed because she's engaged to boyfriend Nicholas. The quote is, still feels like a dream. yeah this happened pretty fast she got on instagram on new year's eveish and she said like this is my first new year's kiss and she's very excited that was kind of like her soft launch with her boyfriend and they've been what she says is private but not secret they've all she's not really a social media guy he hasn't been on social media he doesn't have his own so she said that she's trying to get him on camera more, but she wants to protect their relationship, especially in the beginning of it all. But now we can say that it is serious enough that they are engaged. And she says she's been crying for days since it happened. Still feels like a dream, as you said. She said, so this is love.

dot, dot, dot, dot with the ring in the heart. That was the opening line of her engagement post. She says, I am engaged and feel so blessed. I get to spend forever with my best friend. She also said, Can we just take a moment for, can we just take a moment for how good my fiancé? Oh my God. You know, oh my God, fiancee did on this ring. It's a Jean Doucette ring. She said she feels like the luckiest girl in the world. Now let's get married. She says it's going to be a short engagement. This has just kind of been like a, it's all kind of on a shorter time span. But it seems like she really knows. And then her batch friends, Susie Evans, she commented, oh, my God, chills so happy for you. Also said, so deserving of all the love and happiness sending you so much love. Michael Aalio said, congrats, Teddy, so happy for you. Happiness looks good on you. Serene Russell, she said, so, so happy you found the kind of love you deserve.

I am sobbing. so now we know really why well you know we don't know perhaps paradise we don't know what's up we don't we don't know anything we know that paradise wasn't right wasn't the place that teddy was supposed to find her person she has found her person in her boyfriend nicholas and it's all happening it's super awesome great for teddy uh super excited for her now maybe the biggest headline of the week. In terms of just fan reaction so far. Estatia Adams holds hands with Summerhouse star Luke Goldbranson, amid dating routes.

Yes. So I have to preface that by saying, I've never watched Summerhouse before. I don't know Luke beyond some Instagram pictures and headlines. But it is a big deal that the two of them have been rumored to be seeing. each other for a couple weeks now one of all of our favorite gossip accounts de moire had a tip that the two of them were seen at a bar after going to new york rangers game on march 21st it's kind of what started at all and now they have been seen easter weekend so what happened how it's kind of like launched but maybe not maybe not intentionally launched is that um one of the

or house stars her name is lindsay hubbard over the weekend she posted a picture and the caption was easter at hashtag rad house and in the picture tasha and luke are holding hands off on the like this the side they're like the ones on the end and the whole handhold it's even like a little bit sly it's not even like the most handholdy it's kind of like right there by her pocket and the caption said again like i said easter at rat at rad house but then that says, and then we river dance, salsa dance, and dirty danced. But then soon after, the comments are filling up, says, just a casual hard launch of Tasia and Luke with like eyes, emojis.

Somebody goes, we see the handhold. Another person goes, Lindsay breaking the internet bright and early to start the week. Another person said, came to Radhouse, staying for the Tisha Luke of it all. Okay, so everybody's going crazy in the comment. section and then before you know it the the people the come the picture's gone and she reposts the picture which is shocking she reposts the picture with the two of them cropped out of the end and then the caption is different and it's even more like oh my gosh like something just happened it's even more blaring that the two of them don't want that out there because she

captions it well this is awkward with the two of them out of it they would have been I could have imagined them being more annoyed at that than just the two of them kind of looking like they were holding hands in the original picture yeah I mean I think at this point there is probably a conversation don't you think don't you think Tasia probably said hey but again they're taking a picture and they're holding hands like they have to expect this to get out there you know they would be a little more careful when it comes to who's taking the picture and how they're taking the picture. So I don't necessarily understand how anybody could be upset that this picture was posted because this was the way that you took the picture. You know, there was never

that they wanted to hard launch themselves. Oh, sure, they did. They wouldn't probably do it on their own social media. They'll still get the chance to do that. They'll be fine. But, you know, unless there was some conversation before this picture was taken where Tasha or Luke had said, please don't post this picture, which again would be weird because it's like, okay, if you don't want this picture posted, don't take the picture holding hands, just stand by each other or something like make it still a rumor. But they held hands. The picture was then posted. Ashley, what do you think of this? I mean, you know, we haven't heard a ton from Tasia here as of recent. You know, we don't know necessarily her dating.

life. She still has a social media presence. But we got to be happy for her. I mean, you know, she's now been off the show for how long this feels like something has been going on for a little bit of time. I'm excited for Tasia. I like Tasia. Yeah. She and Zach broke up in November 2021. So it has been a while. And this is the first time we've really seen her pictured with somebody that she might be dating. I think there have been like little swirls. Yeah. in there of other guys, but this is like a little bit more tangible. And I understand that maybe they wouldn't want to be public if they're just starting to date, especially if it's going to be like a public relationship.

You know, you got two reality starts together. You want to make sure it's really a thing before it becomes a thing. You know what I mean? Amongst the fandoms. And we know that they couldn't have been dating too long because he was actually. actually dating another reality star. Her name is Ashley Darby. She's from the Real Housewives of At Potomac.

They were only together for three months, but they did break up in January. Well, again, I mean, I have nothing negative to say about this. I'm very excited for it. But if you don't want it to get out there, then don't take a picture with a bunch of people that have social medias

who are only ever posting pictures holding hands. Like if you want to be more careful, then you should not have done that. Now, I hope now they're happy. I hope now they can celebrate the fact that they are public and maybe we'll get, it'll probably push them become public faster than expected. So there you go.

I think we can probably at this point start to soft launch, that this couple is actually a thing. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious. Well, wait a minute, Sam, maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her.

Now, he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not? To hear the explosive finale, listen to the

And they're saying like, okay, pull this, until this. Do this, pull that, turn this. It's just, I can do my icecloth. I'm Manny.

Well, as I mentioned at the beginning of the episode, Gabby is going to be coming here on the Almost Famous podcast and having an. depth with Ashley. There's a little headline about Gabby that I really want to save

this conversation for your episode, Ashley, but we will at least hint at it. The headline is this. Bachelor's Gabby is still getting over the finale. The quote is that I really am excited to hear you dig into with her. She says, I still feel violated, which I understand by Zach. Yeah. She just feels violated. She says by the way that it all ended. She goes, she doesn't want to like hold hate toward him or the anger or resentment. She wants to let that go at some point. She says, but at this point, she does still feel violated. She says she thinks it's difficult because she needs to, you know, juggle her relationship, her friendship with Katie. the feelings that she has. She says that she thinks she's over, Zach. But then she also admits that maybe I don't know. Maybe I'm not over him.

Maybe I'm just saying that. She says she's not over the violations that she felt at the end of the show. And she said there's so many questions that she wishes like she can get answers to that normal people might be able to after a breakup through, you know, just like the random text or phone call or Instagram DM or something that like pops up after you break up with someone. But when you do it through The Bachelor, it's not traditional like that.

So she just says that she hopes that she's able to keep her friendship with Katie healthy while also just dealing with the fact that she doesn't get classic closure. Yeah, it's going to be an interesting article or interview, Ashley, you and her. I feel like there's a lot of still raw emotion. And she has stayed fairly quiet since the show, and I understand that. This was, I think, a unique scenario. I just did an interview with Us Weekly yesterday kind of talking about this. It was a unique scenario for The Bachelor because I feel like Zach and Katie kind of moved on, right?

They did the interviews. They went off into the sunset, happy together. I know Katie and Gabby are good friends. And Gabby is the one that's kind of left behind at the end being like, wait, what just happened? Like, you know, I not only got broken up with, but now I've probably had to confront the fact that Zach and I, slept together way many more times than I wanted to. And it's a weird conversation to have not only with friends and family, but in interviews. Like, that's what people are talking about. And I think the most interesting thing here is not that they did that. Like, that's not shocking, right? I mean,

it's a little shocking because Zach said, hey, we aren't going to do this. And then you did. It's, how does she feel? Like, how is she doing with this? Because it is something that she wasn't expecting to become public. And it is something that she wasn't expecting to be the storyline. Yeah, I'll definitely talk to her, of course,

about that on Thursday. And I also want to talk to her about how she said in this previous interview that she knows what she lived through. But watching the show back,

it makes her feel like, did what I live through was the truth of the situation or was something cut out of it or was something added to it. Yeah. She says, like, it's hard because you can't distinguish, like,

TV from reality right now. Ooh, yeah. A lot to dig into with Gabby. It's going to be a great interview. Make sure you tune into it, everybody. Next headline is Bachelor Nation's Caitlin Bristow recalls feeling used towards end of relationship with Sean Booth. Yes, she was on Jason's podcast.

It's a two-parter of Trading Secrets. And she talks about how he was getting Booth camp all set up to launch in Nashville in June of 2018. They end up breaking up in the fall of 2018. But she said it was getting down to the end where we both just didn't see it going anywhere. But I felt like he was hanging on until his gym opened. And that's where I felt used. She said she felt used professionally. That's all we really see. If you can go back, you know, that's all we really hear directly from Caitlin on this. But if you go back, you know, you can look at the Instagrams and all that and see Caitlin promoting booth camp and all that and of course she's going to do it especially

like publicly when she's still in a relationship with somebody yeah you know the sham booth scenario was we we had sean booth on the podcast following that relationship remember that yep it was very emotional i feel like that relationship was like really good until it wasn't don't you think then you get that feeling like it was really good and then it just like all of a sudden kind of was done. Yeah, well, Sean, we, you know, have a quote from Sean talking about his relationship in hindsight and he said that, like, they were really good at having fun together and putting out there to the world that they were having fun together.

But being in love and doing the whole love thing, we weren't good at doing that behind closed doors. Okay. That makes sense. They, they, they were such a big personality for so long. But it did always seem good. That's what, I mean, even, I'm able to, like, kind of. cut that relationship as to

like what I know from Caitlin and then like what I saw in the public eye because I almost watched that relationship like a fan because I didn't get to talk to Caitlin at all getting off our season and then she just goes right into her

bachelor season and then I'm watching your guys's season unfold and it felt like I was a fan of the show again and I got really invested just as a viewer and just seeing them on social media, them being one of the most, one of the first, I think like the first big social media couple from the show. And them always being so funny and cute and affectionate.

It did kind of, they did. As Sean said, just really put a vibe out there that they had a blast together. And it was kind of like hashtag relationship goals, right? What it seems. to be yeah that's hard to do too though you know i mean relationships are fun i would say i have a blast in my relationship but it's not always just like doing wild things and like you know it some if you're putting on a show for the public i think at some point that would get exhausting and it probably is unhealthy um well it's it's also interesting that she sat down with jason on the podcast and explained all this it shows where their relationship is at there's an openness and there's an honesty and there's, um, a trust there. So happy Caitlin and Jason. And I think this came up because it's a

business podcast. Sure. You know, this didn't just come up because they're talking about past relationship. She was talking about being involved in his business. Yeah, that's fair. That makes sense. Well, make sure you go listen to that to get more info. Another headline is, uh, someone from, uh, the 20th season of The Bachelor, which I just happened to be a part of, uh, somebody that's awesome. Jim Saviano. Well, Jen Saviano gets emotional celebrating Sun Wilder's first birthday. The quote is, no words. Oh, yeah.

She put up an awesome Instagram reel of Wilder's growth over the year. And it's been fun to watch his growth as he's only two and a half months younger than Dawson. So we go back and forth on DM. Is he doing this? Does he love this? blah, blah, blah. And the kid is so cute. walking before Dawson

Dawson has no desire to walk all these bachelor babies born before him and after him they're all walking and he's just like yeah you know what I like to crawl. But Wilder is adorable and he looked so good in his Easter outfit he had a little button down with the

bow tie so he's he's living his life little Instagram star there he is super fun to watch that go on. It's really cool to see life progress for all these incredible people and having kids and getting married. It's really awesome. Well, Bachelorette Rachel offers advice for charity as Bachelorette and shares scary flying story. I have one

from my season of The Bachelor that was never showed. But we, let's talk about Rachel's first. Okay, we'll talk about Rachel's first. First off, her advice for charity is simple and not the best advice. She goes, just do the opposite of what I did and you'll be golden. Oh, come on. But in all seriousness. And she says, you know, I'm so excited for charity. She did not do I. She said, what do you mean, Rachel? He did a great job. There's nothing you did wrong. I thought she was a great bachelor. Yeah. I, uh, I really enjoyed that season. I really like her personality, really rooting for her in real life. I think that she's going to find someone very easily. And then she also talks, you know, like as you said, scary flying story.

And we get to know more in this article about her flying experience because we all know she's pilot Rachel. But I'm like, oh, you know, and so many of these occupations on The Bachelor, they're a little bit exaggerated. But she is a real pilot, guys. She teaches, she teaches pilot lessons. She said she spent hours making and reviewing lesson plans. um and each student learns differently we all make we allow them to make make mistakes which can be difficult for her she says but i've become a much better pilot from teaching and it's just a stepping stone for what she wants to do which is work for the airlines she said one of the scariest

experiences she had flying um was when she was in the plane by herself for six hours She was getting her commercial license, and she thought she had a, I don't know what this is, an RPM gauge failure, which at the time, while she was up in the air, she thought was her engine failing. So she said she kissed the ground as soon as she landed back home safely. Yeah, that's so scary. Well, mine was not. I mean, hers was like, hers was flying. She's like up in the air by herself, like her engines failing? Yeah, that would freak me out, right?

Mine was just in Las Vegas. We were up in a helicopter, Jojo and I, and there was a lightning storm, and lightning was hitting all around us, and we had to make an emergency landing because the helicopter was getting within, I mean, it looked like inches from lightning bolts, but I think it was farther than that, but you could like, like, people were freaking out. Everybody was. They were freaking out in the pilot and stuff? We had to make an emergency landing.

Like we just pretty much like drop down because it was so, so close and so scary. It was weird. Ben, that is serious. Don't downplay that. It was very serious. Helicopters are dangerous. I thought she was going to talk about Bachelor flying story, but obviously hers is alone in a plane. And it takes a lot of Cajonis to like be peaceful in that moment.

I would love for Rachel to fly me around. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Oh, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now, he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate.

Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor. and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend

really cheated with his professor or not? To hear the explosive finale, listen to the OK Storytime podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, my name is Enya Umanzor. And I'm Drew Phillips. And we run a podcast called Emergency Intercom.

Specifically, I think they wanted her for the first season. But she said that she was dating someone that you really liked at the time.

And she remembers testing the waters and asking him what he would think if she did the show. And if he would have been like, yeah, go do it. then she would have been like okay well bye then but at the end of the day that wasn't the situation she did end up dating him for a while but she did say that in the midst of i guess i want to see almost different paradise seasons corney did end up meeting her husband and getting married and all that within the past i want to say five years because i was with her in Vegas when she was still single with an i heart event so it's probably about five years when she met him but anyway so she didn't ended up going on Paradise, but lots of guys

ended up sliding into her DMs throughout the years to see if she was going. Notably, Chris Bukowski, classic. We love Chris, but this is classic. So she said that he had come to her book launch in New York. So yeah, this is season one.

She had already met him. And they made out after that book launch at the party. And he messaged her saying he was going to Paradise and wanted to know if she was going to be doing the same. She said Brooks Forrester also slid into her DMs, said that some of the girls that she knew were also sliding into DMs asking her if they were going because she thinks that they were trying to stake

their claims, trying to be like, hey, I don't want you going after this guy. The only guy that she thought, oh, maybe I should really go on the show for was Graham Bunn. She knew he was doing that first season and she thought it was cute they had played in a bachelor charity soccer league together so they met a few times and she remembers wondering if they would hit it off if they ended up going down there and spending time together she said but a girl who wanted to date him really badly reached out to me and said he's mine yes and then she said claire and i um were messaging about it but she and claire get along really great and she thought that claire was possibly interested in graham too but that seemed like something she was going to have to respect.

She goes, but she did wonder if she went down and met him, what would happen. But then this is super interesting. The person that was really wondering how things would end up with her was Brooks, who flew out to California to meet her because he just wanted to make sure that he kind of like got the Courtney crush out of his system so that he'd always had a crush on her. And he wanted to see if there was anything there. there. So I guess there wasn't anything strong enough there. I love how Courtney spills to. If you read her book, she talks about celebrity stuff, Adrian Grinier to be the one that is most

memorable for me. Oh, Courtney. She is. She's good at it. She's good interview. We love having her on. Well, two more headlines remaining. I just want to give a quick shout out here to Becca Tilly and Haley. They celebrate their five-year anniversary together. That's a big deal. Happy anniversary. They looked like they had the most amazing trip in Rome. The cutest content And I know that Haley is going on tour now And Becca would probably be at a lot of those tour dates And then the final headline is this

Something that hit very close to home Was actually it felt like a gift To our household I know where you're going with this Yeah Bachelor Nations Amanda Stan Urges fans to stop asking if she's pregnant People can't really be acting this way in 20203

She said And the reason it hits close to home is because Jessica gets very upset, you know, Jessica's been very open about previous experiences with eating disorders and has really, like, fought hard to get her body healthy and to get her back up and going again. And when people do this, and they do it a lot more than I ever thought they would, it hits people in an odd way. Like, you, how do you respond, one? And then what, you know, you read into it a lot. And who, who says, that. And so the reminder when this happened last week to Jessica that I gave her was, hey, people are just sometimes crazy. And they don't mean what they're saying. They don't, they're not hinting at anything about your body or how you look. They just say it to everybody at all times, no matter what the situation. It's just what they do. And why I can't tell you that. But there's no, nothing to be read into here other than it's happening to more people than you expect. And I actually told her at the time,

she's very upset about this. I said, you should call Ashley or text Ashley and ask her if she ever gets these comments. And I guarantee you, Ashley would say, I sure do. Even after Dawson. So big for Amanda Stanton to say this, I messaged Amanda and just said, thank you for doing this. If you're somebody out there who, like, I don't know, has fun commenting, I think you're pregnant. Like, you're a weirdo. Stop doing it.

Like, it hurts people. And it's a very odd thing to say, I don't go up to random women on the streets and be like you look pregnant well you can tell jess that i think she could have the flattest stomach of all time but because her skin is just so glowing people will be like jess your skin looks especially glowy are you pregnant you have a certain gleam about you are you pregnant like you could just be beaming and radiating and looking at your prettiest self and then people would be like you must be pregnant i was like or you could be like me and be your most heinous self and be pregnant so they're going to come up with anything and it's not at all I don't even think that like it would be referring to bodies sometimes I think people just get really excited about babies for some reason I don't know why there's such a fascination around like pregnancy and babies on Instagram yeah people love to they they they love it like even when I post about Dawson it's weird because like people are like he's so

cute when is baby number two i'll get so many comments when's baby number two um you guys make beautiful children when's the next it's like why do we need to always be more more more i mean yes we're we hope to have more children we're not bunnies we don't just like keep pushing them out every two months um it was also something i learned at a very young age actually like i would have to say I was probably like three or four years old whenever I could communicate words in a clear sentence. I remember very clearly my parents going, hey, it's just not appropriate to ask somebody if they're pregnant. Like even if you expect it, suspect it, even if they're like nine months pregnant and it's very obvious. I don't even say it. Yeah, you don't say it. It's just not a thing.

It's just not a thing. Stop doing it. It's weird. Yeah. You let the ladies say it. That's what I always Let them have their moment. My thought. You bring it up. Yeah. Let them have a moment. Let them tell you when they want to tell you. Let them make it very obvious to you that they are pregnant.

And then you can celebrate. But until then, keep it to yourself or just stop thinking it. I know, I'm imagining sometimes it comes from a very kind place. Like, I'm excited for you. Are you pregnant? But it doesn't come off kind. It comes off a little intrusive and it comes off a little offensive. And it's also just inappropriate.

So let people tell you when they're pregnant. Yes. Let me say exactly what Amanda said. She said one thing she didn't expect ever getting married, which she got married in September, is that people will immediately start asking if you're pregnant every day or tell you that you look pregnant. She said that every time she posts a photo, at least a couple people ask if she's expecting baby number three. And after I said, no, I'm not. Someone literally told her, you should take a test to make sure.

People really can't be acting this way in 2023. Stop asking a people are pregnant. I will say this isn't like really changed thing, but she did do an ad for natural cycles the week before tracking her cycle. And she does make it clear that she wants to have a child with her new husband, Michael, which might be flaring people's excitement for her in having another baby. Just don't ask though.

It doesn't. It doesn't give you the room to ask. It doesn't. Right. Exactly. she can share her plans with you without you asking if it's a thing or not yet yeah keep to yourself and then let them tell you anyways uh that's all we have for today again gabby's going to be coming on the almost famous podcast this week and talking with ashley in an in-depth episode so make sure you send
