- 0:03Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.
- 0:06Speaker 2: It's time for Bachelor headlines. This is a big episode
- 0:09Speaker 2: with a lot of headlines. We want to start with
- 0:10Speaker 2: one that has well. It came across our phones this
- 0:16Speaker 2: week and it really shook the Almost Famous family up
- 0:20Speaker 2: a lot. I didn't know her personally, but she is
- 0:24Speaker 2: a part of the Bachelor world. She was on Nick
- 0:27Speaker 2: Viles season of The Bachelor. Hailey Merkht has passed away
- 0:32Speaker 2: at thirty one years old. She had kind of documented
- 0:36Speaker 2: her cancer journey. The quote is her beautiful spirit has
- 0:41Speaker 2: touched countless, countless lives. Now, before we get started here
- 0:44Speaker 2: kind of talking about Haley one. She was beautiful inside
- 0:49Speaker 2: and out. Just as we've seen the tributes and as
- 0:52Speaker 2: we've kind of learned about her story and also followed
- 0:56Speaker 2: her story, She's a beautiful human inside out. Most Famous
- 1:00Speaker 2: podcast has donated and we encourage all of you to donate. Actually,
- 1:04Speaker 2: myself have gone out and donated to the GoFundMe. The
- 1:08Speaker 2: gofunme has links. You can kind of find it if
- 1:11Speaker 2: you Google it, or you can go on the social
- 1:13Speaker 2: media and find it. But we ask you to donate
- 1:17Speaker 2: for many reasons, and I think this one small way
- 1:21Speaker 2: we can show support during this really tough time for
- 1:25Speaker 2: somebody who was only thirty one years old and obviously
- 1:27Speaker 2: had a huge impact in a lot of lives. Actually,
- 1:30Speaker 2: I just mentioned that she was on Nick Files season.
- 1:33Speaker 2: I actually don't even know how long she was on
- 1:36Speaker 2: the season four me neither.
- 1:38Speaker 3: It's only it was very brief. I know that Nick
- 1:42Speaker 3: said something like he didn't get to know her well,
- 1:44Speaker 3: but what he could tell from her is that she
- 1:48Speaker 3: was beautiful inside and out. There have been some girls
- 1:52Speaker 3: from her season. Daniel Maltby said that I can count
- 1:57Speaker 3: myself so lucky to know your laugh and grateful to
- 2:00Speaker 3: have met and loved the realist, warmest and most beautiful
- 2:03Speaker 3: soul in the weirdest of places. Forever grateful for your
- 2:06Speaker 3: friendship there and in the real world. What a force,
- 2:09Speaker 3: my girl. Rest easy, and so much love to your people.
- 2:12Speaker 3: That's what she wrote. And then I know Raven spoke
- 2:17Speaker 3: really highly of hers. She said, Oh my gosh, so
- 2:19Speaker 3: so sorry to see this. I was so hoping for
- 2:22Speaker 3: her recovery. Rest easy, Haley, You'll never be forgotten. Yeah,
- 2:27Speaker 3: this is just like the saddest, saddest news she had leukemia,
- 2:32Speaker 3: and we are just we're so sad to hear this news.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely, it's definitely sat with us, and you know,
- 2:43Speaker 2: it's tough to continue on with the headlines episode after
- 2:45Speaker 2: this headline, but I do just want to take a
- 2:47Speaker 2: second and tell everybody listens, if you do nothing else,
- 2:51Speaker 2: go to her social media and leave a comment, because
- 2:53Speaker 2: I know the family is watching. I know during this time,
- 2:57Speaker 2: the smallest of things, even from a distance, in support
- 3:00Speaker 2: and just saying hey, we're thinking about you, or hey
- 3:02Speaker 2: we saw this and this broke our heart, but we
- 3:04Speaker 2: recognize how beautiful she was inside and out. Could mean
- 3:08Speaker 2: a lot to probably somebody in that family or somebody
- 3:11Speaker 2: close to her, a friend that's keeping tabs on it.
- 3:14Speaker 2: Or go out again to the GoFundMe and donate if
- 3:17Speaker 2: you have the ability and the desire.
- 3:21Speaker 3: The go fund me will be open till August tenth,
- 3:23Speaker 3: and the proceeds are going to her mom and the
- 3:26Speaker 3: family for all the costs that they've gone through with
- 3:31Speaker 3: her treatment.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Totally switching gears. Completely switching gears here, and I think
- 3:37Speaker 2: it's the only way to do that after this type
- 3:40Speaker 2: of headline. A guy in Bachelor nation who continues to
- 3:45Speaker 2: shock brings shock and all too many to many people.
- 3:51Speaker 2: James McCoy Taylor. James McCoy taylor has made headlines recently
- 3:57Speaker 2: for outing your favorite person just to you know, somebody.
- 4:01Speaker 2: It just seems to always pop up, and somehow he
- 4:05Speaker 2: is popping up in all the wrong places, including this
- 4:08Speaker 2: time he's in jail.
- 4:09Speaker 3: Wait, that's right.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Bachelor alum James McCoy taylor as arrested for assault. Says this.
- 4:16Speaker 2: The Bachelor alum James McCoy taylor was arrested Sunday on
- 4:19Speaker 2: charges including assault. Page six is confirming this, and they
- 4:23Speaker 2: reveal that thirty eight year old James McCoy taylor was
- 4:26Speaker 2: handcuffed at a bar in Northgate Entertainment district of Brazos County, Texas.
- 4:31Speaker 2: The College Station Police departments public information officer David Simmons
- 4:35Speaker 2: tells US. Simmons is quoted here, says the former reality
- 4:39Speaker 2: star was taken into custody on warrants issued by a
- 4:41Speaker 2: nearby Bryan police department.
- 4:44Speaker 3: So we don't have any more on that except for
- 4:47Speaker 3: the fact that you know he was arrested on Sunday
- 4:50Speaker 3: in Texas for assault. We don't know what kind of
- 4:52Speaker 3: assault it was or we have no further details. This
- 4:56Speaker 3: is just what we've been getting in from People magazine
- 5:00Speaker 3: and maybe we'll find out more. But this is not
- 5:02Speaker 3: the first of legal troubles that that he has had.
- 5:07Speaker 3: He had some legal issues with Ben himself, and in
- 5:10Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, he also was arrested for driving while
- 5:14Speaker 3: intoxicated and unlawfully carrying a weapon. We also recently reported
- 5:20Speaker 3: about him having an issue with like an eighteen year
- 5:22Speaker 3: old college freshman companion when he was driving her back
- 5:26Speaker 3: to her dorm room. There was some sketchiness with that. So, yeah, Ben,
- 5:33Speaker 3: I know that you had an issue with him and
- 5:36Speaker 3: he wanted to sue you for like slander or something liable. Yeah,
- 5:41Speaker 3: so the guy gets in legal trouble a lot, and
- 5:44Speaker 3: somehow he's still making headlines.
- 5:47Speaker 2: It's wild. Back to better headlines. Bachelor Nation, Alump can
- 6:00Speaker 2: long reveal she secretly married Mitchell sagely we eloped.
- 6:04Speaker 3: She says, yes, Well, she's actually gonna come on the
- 6:07Speaker 3: podcast for recording it on Wednesday and get all the details.
- 6:12Speaker 3: She says that they elope before they moved to Germany,
- 6:14Speaker 3: and if I remember ferredly they moved to Germany quite
- 6:17Speaker 3: some time ago, so this has been they've been secretly
- 6:19Speaker 3: married for a while. Well we'll find out, but they
- 6:23Speaker 3: did this. They got married in Santa Barbara, California, Yeah,
- 6:27Speaker 3: before they moved to Germany in twenty twenty two. So
- 6:30Speaker 3: like they've been married for over a year and they're
- 6:34Speaker 3: just announcing it. Uh, that's pretty cool. And this is
- 6:39Speaker 3: not surprising to me because one, Kendall in eloping just
- 6:42Speaker 3: sounds right, and two they were perfect together. We met
- 6:47Speaker 3: them about six months before they got married, it seems,
- 6:52Speaker 3: and they just worsel mates and everything happens for a reason.
- 6:56Speaker 3: It's amazing to see her and you know, Joe a
- 7:00Speaker 3: mob Lay both having found their spouses after what seemed
- 7:07Speaker 3: to be like just maybe a bit of a messy
- 7:11Speaker 3: breakup and feeling like I felt so bad for Kendall
- 7:15Speaker 3: and having to go on and watch Joe meet his
- 7:18Speaker 3: fiance turned wife Serena on the show. But then you
- 7:23Speaker 3: see Kendall find this guy that was just so much
- 7:26Speaker 3: more right for her, and hilariously, you know, they blamed
- 7:29Speaker 3: their breakup, Joe and Serena, I mean Joe and Kendall,
- 7:32Speaker 3: on the fact that they couldn't decide on where to live,
- 7:37Speaker 3: and neither of them wanted to leave their families. But
- 7:40Speaker 3: we see them both with their spouses now leaving the
- 7:43Speaker 3: city that they intended on staying in.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't that interesting? Love love when you're in love.
- 7:51Speaker 2: I think moving means different. I think Kendall actually has
- 7:54Speaker 2: a quote that says, when you find that like the
- 7:56Speaker 2: right person, you'll do it. And so obviously this is
- 7:59Speaker 2: the right person for both of them. We're happy for
- 8:01Speaker 2: both of them, But to focus on Kindle here, we
- 8:03Speaker 2: will get all the details. As Ashley mentioned Wednesday, when
- 8:07Speaker 2: we have her on the Almost Famous podcast, next headline
- 8:11Speaker 2: is this bachelor lum Sarah Herron, friend of the podcast,
- 8:15Speaker 2: her twins finally come home after four weeks. In the
- 8:17Speaker 2: nick You, she says her quote, I think is a
- 8:20Speaker 2: great quote. Let the games begin.
- 8:21Speaker 3: I know, I feel like I've been following Sarah's pregnancy
- 8:24Speaker 3: more than my own, and I'm so glad that her
- 8:28Speaker 3: girls are healthy and they are now home. They were,
- 8:33Speaker 3: like Ben just said in The nick You, for four weeks,
- 8:36Speaker 3: and she documented so much of it on Instagram. I
- 8:38Speaker 3: cannot believe those four weeks really flew by. And now
- 8:42Speaker 3: she's documenting all about how to how the heck you
- 8:47Speaker 3: wash enough bottles for two for two newborns, And they
- 8:52Speaker 3: both have oxygen tanks at home. But they're doing really well,
- 8:56Speaker 3: and the two of them, her husband Dylan and her
- 9:01Speaker 3: are really running on absolutely zero sleep. She said that
- 9:05Speaker 3: their most used item from their registry is the coffeemaker
- 9:10Speaker 3: because it just takes them so much of the night
- 9:14Speaker 3: to feed two babies. Who you know, they try to
- 9:17Speaker 3: get them on the same schedule, but that's pretty hard.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't happen right away. I wouldn't assume you
- 9:22Speaker 2: would know more than me.
- 9:24Speaker 3: No, it doesn't. So you know, they're just they're really
- 9:28Speaker 3: surviving on coffee.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Ah. Well, it's still exciting and super awesome to see
- 9:34Speaker 2: this all happening for the two of them. It's something
- 9:36Speaker 2: they dreamed of and wanted for a long time. Next
- 9:39Speaker 2: headline is this Andy Dorfman is pregnant. This was an
- 9:42Speaker 2: announcement made just a few hours ago on social media.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Very exciting. Ashley, tell me if I'm wrong, but she's
- 9:48Speaker 2: pretty far along. Oh is she.
- 9:51Speaker 3: Going based off the the sonogram right here? Yeah? Or
- 9:56Speaker 3: did she say what she is?
- 9:57Speaker 2: I don't know if she said, are you looking at.
- 9:59Speaker 3: Her, Ellie and saying that she's far along? Okay, yeah,
- 10:05Speaker 3: it looks like a real baby in there. That is
- 10:07Speaker 3: not that is a full, full baby in there. Well,
- 10:11Speaker 3: she says, we don't actually know how far along she is,
- 10:15Speaker 3: but she says on her on her Instagram future mom
- 10:18Speaker 3: and dad just say that we are over the moon
- 10:20Speaker 3: as an understatement. Baby hard coming. Oh yes, later this year.
- 10:23Speaker 3: So you're right, she's definitely fully into her second trimester.
- 10:28Speaker 2: We're less than four months away from the end of
- 10:30Speaker 2: the year, so she's less than four.
- 10:31Speaker 3: Months from four months okay, September October, Oh god, oh god.
- 10:37Speaker 2: This is the eighth month. Actually, there's twelve months.
- 10:40Speaker 3: In a year. You're right. I always think of like
- 10:44Speaker 3: we're in the middle of the year at August.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Now we're clicking along here.
- 10:49Speaker 3: Right, Okay, she's far along.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Good for my assumptions were correct. The next headline is this,
- 10:55Speaker 2: we have an official launch date or debut date for
- 10:59Speaker 2: the Golden backlarette. Joan will be coming to our screens.
- 11:02Speaker 3: When September eighteenth, so a pretty much exactly a year
