This story makes me happy. And not because of the breakup. The story has to deal with Ali Luber and James Kennedy, the couple from Vanderpump Rules. We all know that back in December, James was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence, and Ali has been very quiet about details regarding this until yesterday, where she gave an exclusive to people.com, and this is why I said I love it because.
Nick Vial has been teasing for two days. He’s got a sit down interview with Ali Luber, but it’s not coming until tomorrow, so, or excuse me. Wow. I’m recording this on Tuesday night. It’s coming today, but the exclusive with people.com already was posted yesterday. So thank you, Allie, to going to people first for your exclusive.
Because frankly I’m just sick of Nick getting exclusives. Yeah. It bothers me. I’m not jealous ’cause I know he gets exclusives, but does it bother me? Sure. It’s not like, ’cause I was competing for Ali Ally wasn’t gonna come on this podcast, but I’m just glad that I saw people give the exclusive first because everything she said in this people.com interview yesterday about what happened that night, I’m sure is exactly what Nick is gonna ask her about.
But. He got beaten to the exclusive. She probably got paid to give the exclusive to people, which is fine, but basically what she said was it was such a high and low week. And then the night of the Kathie Hilton party, she basically found out that James was drinking. And she also has come to find out after the fact that James was hiding his drinking from her.
He had fallen off the wagon and was doing it behind her back that particular night. She made it clear. He did not physically harm me in any way, shape or form. It was just a verbal altercation where I was just mad at him for being drunk and he was being drunk and saying stupid shit, and it got very loud and someone called the cops, so she didn’t understand.
At first, she thought that maybe something else, what it was. She said, you’re obviously drunk because he has a sip and it’s pretty easy to spot. His whole demeanor changes and. He knew that drinking was a non-negotiable in their relationship, and that made her even more upset in the moment. She said, my friend Jack was with us also, so we’re all really just fighting.
James was gaslighting me. He’s like, I’m not drunk. You’re drunk. And I’m like, no. We were just fighting. And then when we got out of the Uber, the fighting just continued. I was like, I don’t wanna be here. We were just fighting outside. I don’t know who called the cops, but the cops showed up. They assessed the situation, and I was not hurt physically, emotionally, yes.
But yeah, that’s kind of how that night played out. Unfortunately, the arrest log, that was what was posted. An officer reported the woman inside the residence stated her boyfriend lifted her up and threw her to the ground. It was not made clear whether that woman was Allie. She said, I was like, breathalyze him, because at this point he’s still telling me I’m not drunk.
So when they actually showed up, I was like, oh, perfect. Will you please breathalyze him? So that was my first thought. And they were like, well, we can’t do that. We’re not allowed to do that. But then they were like, he’s drunk. And I was like, okay, thanks. A lot of likes in there, but. Go read the article on people.com if you don’t want to listen to her on Nick’s podcast today.
I am sure Nick will be able to dive into more because this is just an article on a website, even though it is an interview and there’s a lot of quotes from her in here. Obviously a podcast you’re given a lot more time and she could probably go into a lot more detail. But the exclusive is out on People.
Came out yesterday and Nick’s gonna have her on the podcast today. Some Temptation Island News. First off, good interview coming tomorrow. A double bonus interview Yesterday, I interviewed Kay and Natalie. Kay was the one who left the island with Tyler. Natalie was the one who didn’t leave the island with Grant, but they dated post-show.
I. I know they’ve done a lot of interviews. I know you’ve heard them on tiktoks. I know you heard them on the reunion show on Nick’s podcast, but I got them both separately tomorrow, but I’m just gonna combine the interview into one long interview. I do. Kay first and then Natalie after her, and both of ’em no filter whatsoever.
If you’ve watched their tiktoks, you know they have many a thoughts about Tyler and about Grant. So that’s gonna be coming in tomorrow’s. Weekly podcast, episode number 4 38. Also set to record. Tomorrow I’m recording with Ashley. From Temptation Island, Grant’s ex-girlfriend. She’s done a ton of interviews, as you know, but she’s also wanting to talk as well.
We’re gonna discuss what Natalie said in the interview. You’re gonna hear tomorrow, but that’ll run next week. I’m recording it tomorrow. I just wanna make sure I have this. In the can because I really, really wanted to get Ashley, and like I said, Netflix has been really great about the Temptation Island people, and you’re gonna really like Kay and Natalie tomorrow because they’re unfiltered.
And I really liked what they had to say. The other ti news that broke late on Monday night was Shante and Brion have broken up. I don’t follow Breon. Maybe he has posted something about it, but Shante posted on her Instagram story and she wrote this. After much thought and reflection, Breon and I have decided to part ways for now there’s no bad blood, just two people recognizing we need time and space to process this journey.
I have so much I wanna share with you all, and I hope you’ll continue to support and encourage me as I step into this next chapter. I wish Brion nothing but the best, and I hope we’re both able to grow from this experience as I move forward. I’m excited to share more of myself with you all. Let’s keep pushing forward together.
So the interesting thing to me was what she wrote in the very first sentence, Brion and I have decided to part ways for now. You know, I brought this up to Kay in the interview yesterday. Kay brought up a point that she thinks that she’s not fully convinced, they’re actually broken up. She thinks they might just be saying this publicly, so people will stop with the hate because they’re getting a ton of hate and they’re calling Shante names and they’re calling Shante an idiot and stupid because she took him back and you know, my feelings about Breon and everything that went down.
When the tri, when the threesome happened, and he said what he did about how he felt about it and Oh yeah, she won’t care. She’ll take me back. I said, he was literally the most vile human they had ever cast in the six seasons of Temptation Island. I thought he was a horrible, horrible person. But when we find out more about his past, like I said, I don’t excuse it, but it made a hell of a lot more sense to me, and then it seemed like.
When they went on Mark Wahlberg’s Bonfire Talks podcast, it seemed like Brion was getting the help that he needed and they looked to be thriving. So for them to put it out now that, Hey, by the way, we’ve decided to break up for now, or what was the exact wording Part ways for now. I mean, the fact that she threw the words for now in there makes it seem like maybe they do just need a break from each other.
Let everything die down. Then get back together, or they might still be together privately and they just don’t want to post stuff publicly because every time they do it immediately is met with a bunch of hate and probably a bunch of insults thrown her way for taking him back. So whether or not this is a real or true breakup or not, I guess we don’t know, but it looks like, at least for the time being, it’s amicable and he doesn’t seem, I don’t know what he has posted, but.
I, it’s probably good for them whether they stay together and do it privately and just don’t post together, or whether they are truly broken up and gonna take some time away from each other. It’s probably what they need. I hope Brion is sticking with therapy. I hope he’s not doing that just because he thinks that’s what Shante wants from him.
He needs it for himself. ’cause obviously there’s a lot in his past that he needs to peel the layers back of the onion, so to speak. Because when this, when you’re abused in the foster system and then you’ve been on your own since you were 17 years old, yeah, you’ve got a lot of trauma in your past and he probably needs to address it, but that’s what she posted.
We’ll have to go with that for now and just wanted to update anybody on that who had not seen her post that on her Instagram story the other night. And finally, a little love is blind. Real quick for you, I don’t know how many of you watch wwe Well. Monday Night Raw was in Minnesota this past weekend, and we know Love is Blind.
Season eight filmed in Minnesota. I’ve watched wrestling since I was in sixth grade, and who do I see sitting right behind the announced desk and got plenty of camera time? During Monday’s episode of Monday Night Raw. It was Taylor and Daniel from Love Is Blind. If you follow her on Instagram, you saw her post a picture and kind of put a caption on her picture saying like.
How did I even get here or whatever, so clearly. Taylor’s probably not a fan of wrestling and maybe Daniel is, and that’s, he’s the one that decided to go, or maybe he’s not, and it was just a Netflix thing that that brought them, because RAW is on Netflix now. But I just thought it was funny because Taylor and Daniel got so much camera time sitting in the front row right behind the announcers, Michael Cole and Pat McAfee on Monday night that it was just funny seeing them there.
There were a couple brawls that happened right over the announced desk and there they were probably looking at it like. How do we get ourselves, how how’s my life become this now? But yeah. Anyway, Taylor and Daniel all over Monday Night Raw on Monday night. Hope you had a good time, guys. Anyway, thank you all for listening.
Really appreciate it. Oh, and by the way, I’d love to have you on the podcast, but Connecticut hates me, so I guess I can’t. I wanted to throw that in there. Anyway, again, thank you all for listening. I really appreciate it. Follow me on Apple Podcasts. Also, rate and review, but you gotta hit play. It’s the only way it counts as a download coming up in an hour from now.
